hi Emma,

I wanna ask what the void state is? please and thankyou!

✶ EXPLAINING THE VOID STATE.

the void state is basically a state of deep consciousness where you feel empty but in a powerful, limitless kind of way. like, imagine your mind being a blank canvas—completely detached from the outside world, just being there in pure stillness. no thoughts, no distractions, just you chilling in this black, endless abyss of potential. it’s where people say you can manifest literally anything because there’s nothing holding you back.

⭒ ˚ ₊ ⋆ WELL, EMMA, THAT SOUNDS FANTASTIC! HOW DO I GET THERE?

people usually do meditations, affirmations, or breathwork to hit the void state. the key is to relax, focus inward, and let go of all the noise. you’re basically tuning out of this reality and into your inner space.

SET THE MOOD. get comfy. lie down or sit in a cozy position where your body can relax without distractions. dim the lights, grab a blanket, and maybe play soft, ambient sounds (or just embrace the silence).

RELAX YOUR BODY. start with deep breathing. inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4, exhale for 4 (repeat a few times). then do a mental body scan—relax your toes, then your legs, then your chest, etc. until you feel like a puddle of calm.

QUIET THE MIND. focus on nothingness. easier said than done, i know, i know, but try to let go of any thoughts that pop up. some people imagine a black void or empty space to help. if thoughts creep in, don’t fight them—just let them pass and gently refocus.

AFFIRM YOUR INTENT. use affirmations to remind yourself you’re entering the void. whisper (or think) things like.....

"i am in the void.” “i am pure awareness.” “i am limitless.”

say them until you feel it.

DETACH AND SURRENDER. here’s the key—don’t force it. just let yourself be. the void isn’t about trying hard; it’s about releasing everything. trust that you’re exactly where you need to be, even if it doesn’t feel dramatic.

SIGNS YOU'RE IN THE VOID. you feel detached from your body or surroundings. there’s a deep stillness or “nothingness” sensation. you’re hyper-aware, but everything feels quiet.

MANIFESTING...OR CHILL. once you’re there, you can affirm what you want, visualise your desires, or just bask in the calm. this is YOUR moment to do whatever you like.

⭒ ˚ ₊ ⋆ IS IT REQUIRED FOR MY SHIFTING JOURNEY?

the void state is cool and all, but let me be clear—you do NOT need it to manifest, shift, or achieve your dreams. belief, consistency, and confidence in yourself are just as powerful. the void is like an optional bonus round; sure, it’s great if you get there, but it’s not the be-all and end-all. you already hold the power to change your reality through your thoughts and intentions alone. so don’t stress if the void feels elusive—your belief in yourself is enough. always has been, always will be.

500 FOLLOWERS

Wow. 500 of you. That number feels surreal, especially after everything these past few months. (Don't scroll away there's a surprise at the bottom of the post.)

In July, I faced harassment over a rumor about being hired as a TSAMS writer. In August and September, it escalated—stalking, harassment, and widespread slander over SolarNexus, a ship I don’t even ship. October brought betrayal as someone I trusted turned out to be a predator, slandering our friend group, faking their death, and running away upon confrontation. Last month, I had to take a stand against someone sharing NSFW with minors, leading to more slander and harassment.

Now it’s December, and honestly, fandom discourse feels inevitable. But you know what? I don’t care.

This community has been so supportive to me throughout this. I have grown close with friends, made new ones, and gained so many supporters and I don't know how to say thank you enough. I've reached so many of my goals for this year, and there's always going to be more work to do.

I'm starting a new fic. I'm updating my old ones. I'm making art for a voice actor. I'm a mod in the community server. And I'm finally working on a project again that I started in August.

I’ve been really hesitant to show this project off on main, beyond reblogging things here and there. I won’t reveal which character I specifically play—though it probably wouldn’t be hard to guess.

This project started as a way to support the mod who plays Lunar, who was receiving harassment simply for enforcing their boundaries. Yes, you read that right—they were harassed because they didn’t want to post negative confessions. When we saw that happening, my friends and I got together, and I said, “Haha, wouldn’t it be so cool if we just made a bunch of confession blogs to dunk on the haters and roleplay and shit?”

Within 24 hours, two new blogs popped up. One hasn’t done anything to hurt me, so I won’t name them, but we all know who they are. The second? Biased-tsams-confessions—a blog that was one of the leading forces behind the harassment I faced in August. They would flip their lid if they knew I was the leading force behind TSBS CVAU and remain its head administrator and manager. Honestly? That makes me even prouder of this project.

Of course, I couldn’t do this alone. A huge thank you to my partner in crime, @lyrical-hue, who has been my rock throughout this journey. They’ve helped smooth out the bumps along the way, making sure I don’t handle everything solo.

I’m so excited to finally share this project with my fanbase publicly. We’re expanding our world and currently looking for new members to join the group! If you’re interested, you can apply here:

Okay so now the real question. How am I celebrating this milestone? The past two times I made a post like this I did a raffle (one of which I'm still finishing the artwork for). This time I'd like to do something different.

I want to make some free emotes for the community. My community. To give back some of the support I've been given.

To be applicable for this, reblog this post with references of your character designs, AU designs, OCs, or sonas. As many as you want. They can be your own characters, or personal designs for preexisting characters. Or even just. Characters. I will literally just take canon designs of characters too. I'll even take requests for my own designs. As you can see there are a LOT of emotes there, so I need a LOT of characters from the community.

RULES:

Characters must be submitted through REBLOGS

You do not get to choose which emote is made, I do, I'm doing this for free after all

You HAVE to be following me, this is an event to celebrate my followers after all.

And uh, yeah that's kinda it. If you want to join the discord you can join here:

In celebration of the Sylus banner releasing, here’s the first part to my Sylus fic!

Sylus x named!mc | Touch her and 💀 vibes | Possessive Sylus

Intended for 18+ readers, MINORS DNI

Read on Ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/60998824

A Kitten and A Crow

His irritation was nearly palpable as negotiations dragged on and on. Sylus let his crimson gaze flick around the men sitting at the table around him, trying to bargain for their safety in his territory while they do some bogus business deal. Really, the whole thing was boring, and that itself is what irritated him the most.

His phone began to buzz in his pocket, which brought a welcomed distraction. A slight smirk played at the corner of his mouth as the name ‘kitten’ flashed across the screen as the incoming call. She always seemed to know when he was bored.

“Gentlemen, I am afraid we will have to continue these negotiations another time,” was all the explanation he gave before rising and walking from the table. He reached the other room, thumbing the answer button and holding the phone to his ear. Before he could even greet her, a scuffle sounded and the call disconnected.

“Mephisto,” was all he had to say before the crow flew through the window with a croaking call in the night. He tapped her name in the call log to dial her phone, pushing down the anxiety that threatened to crack the iron hold he had on his composure.

“Kitten?” He questioned when the call connected.

“S-Sy,” came her labored breathing. A pained whine escaped from her and he growled.

“Where are you?” His query came as a sharp demand, grateful that he had already sent Mephisto to find her.

“Sylus, d-don’t-“ her words ended in a cry as the sharp crack of flesh connecting with flesh came across the line. Rage pulsed through Sylus at the sound of a struggle, the phone being kicked away, before the line went dead.

The deep crimson-streaked shadows shrouded him without a second thought, transporting him to the rooftops for some sort of vantage point. He couldn’t feel her aether core anymore, the ever present hum that had become a source of comfort, but he somehow knew she was still within the N109 Zone. Within his territory.

There. A signal from Mephisto and the copper stench of fresh blood flooded his senses as he followed the crow’s direction in his signature shadowy cloak.

He arrived in the alleyway that Mephisto hovered over, mere blocks away from his own base. A man held her limp form by the throat, gloating to her unconscious figure.

“Once we get that Onychinus bastard out here, he’s done for!” Maniacal laughter followed his statement as he tossed her haphazardly to the side.

“Ah. So, you intended for a trap, then,” Sylus said with a deadly calm, dropping into the mouth of the alleyway from the cloud of darkness.

“Hah! It’s true! The hunter is your weakness after all,” said the man as he turned his wild gaze on the newcomer. Sylus didn’t recognize him, but figured the idiot must be from an opposing faction.

“Do you know what happens when you touch what is mine,” he said with a voice full of venom, striding into the alley. But the man only grinned, lifting a pistol to aim at Sylus. A threat that Sylus pointedly ignored as he continued forward.

Mephisto landed next to Helene, giving his observation. Bruised and battered, and a deep gash in her side that was cause for concern. She was alive, but didn’t have the luxury of time.

“Lets end this quickly,” Sylus said, disappearing into that crimson darkness and reappearing right before the man.

“Your evol is useless against me, crow,” the man cackled, aiming the pistol right for Sylus’ head. “I’ve been given a glorious chance to take down the biggest threat to our company. These bullets have been specially manufactured with your evol in mind.”

The man pulled the trigger, fully trusting that his employers had told him correct information. What they didn’t tell him, however, is the ethereal speed at with Sylus could use his evol. The bullet ripped through empty air while Sylus rematerialized behind him.

“I’m going to enjoy this,” he growled into the man’s ear before an onyx blade appeared in his hand. His arm thrust forward. A strangled gurgle was the final sound the man made as Sylus plunged that blade into his heart from behind. He twisted it for good measure, lamenting that he couldn’t do what he really wanted to.

Sylus dropped to a knee by Helene’s side before the stranger’s corpse even hit the pavement. He brushed her blood-streaked hair from her frighteningly pale face before lifting her in his arms. It still amazed him how light she was, considering how much she ate at any given meal.

A vehicle pulled into the mouth of the alley, giving Sylus a brief pause before he realized it was his own car and the twins sat in the front.

Luke hopped out from the passenger seat and opened the door for him, Sylus carrying her frighteningly limp form forward. A hand reached out to help steady her as he shuffled into the back, but he felt a growl rumble in his chest and he clutched her tighter to himself. Luke backed off without a word, hands held up to placate the boss.

It had only taken minutes to find her, but each second that had ticked by since the call first disconnected felt like a lifetime.

Really interesting detail about Klavier's teen vs adult design that I noticed, it looks like the bit that usually drapes off his shoulder was cut off.

It's not cleanly cut either, it's messily cut, even by Ace Attorney standards, like it was done while Klav was struggling.

Obviously I could be looking too far into it, and my headcanons might be affecting how I see it, but it feels like it was forcefully cut. Aside from that, his hair as a teenager is almost identical to his hair as an adult.

What am I implying here? I think Kristoph forcefully cut it. "But why would he if they have the same hairstyle?" Glad you asked!

It's made pretty clear in Apollo Justice that Kristoph is a hypocrite. He claims the law is absolute despite utilizing legal loopholes, for example. Additionally, the fact that he was going to use forged evidence in court and called out Apollo and Phoenix for using forged evidence also signals that he's a hypocrite, and his hypocrisy comes from his drive to protect his own ego. He also projected his own manipulation of Klavier onto Apollo by implying Apollo was the one to cause Klavier to break down. Like, a lot of his behavior is either projection, hypocrisy, or both. I don't think it's a stretch to apply that to his dynamic with Klavier.

It's already implied in Apollo Justice specifically that their dynamic isn't great. Klavier never asked Kristoph how he knew about the forged evidence, which implies he had reason to not trust him with that question (whether that was not trusting him with questions, or not trusting him in general, and whether or not he was consciously distrustful of Kristoph or not). He doesn't seem to think Apollo didn't rightfully get Kristoph found out for murder either; he specifically tells Apollo "How could I pass up a chance to see the true strength... ...of the little boy who bested my brother?" Hell, you could even argue that implies that Klavier knows Kristoph used underhanded tactics in court, or at least suspected it, and never said anything about it, which makes sense because Kristoph is a socially powerful individual.

Basically, Klavier's hair when he's 17 looks like it's really messily cut, like it was forcefully cut off (alternatively he cut it off himself during a mental breakdown but I personally think it's just as, if not more, likely that Kristoph cut it off). It's a small and honestly insignificant detail but it's really interesting to me.

CASE 1: TURNABOUT ASSEMBLY

8:00AM - Egg Quarters: Judge's Office

Eggman: Thank you for meeting me on such short notice.

???: No! I, uh... Thank you for the opportunity.

???: (How can I be saying this? After everything he's done!?)

Eggman: Well, let's make this quick, as I have a lot to attend to today - why don't you tell me about yourself?

Reiker: Well... My name is Reiker Strait, I'm 26 years old, and a recent graduate from the Acorn Kingdom's School of Law. I've volunteered at-

Eggman: The Acorn Kingdom, hm? Why come to Sunnyside?

Reiker: ... Sunnyside?

Eggman: You don't know the city's name?

Reiker: Oh, everyone outside of this place has been calling it Robotropolis... That's what this island was called before it became Eggmanland, wasn't it?

Eggman: Heavens, no! I gave up on that concept a long time ago. This one is entirely new!

Eggman: ... [Ahem]

Eggman: Regardless, you have yet to answer my question. Why come here?

Reiker: Uh... Let's just say there aren't many opportunities for new lawyers in the Acorn Kingdom. I was hoping some positions might become available once the Restoration was finished with their cleanup. I guess now that everything's settled, most people just want a return to form.

Eggman: Hm, I see. I wont lie, this city itself is new blood - only a year old - but we're a bit desperate in the legal department. We can actually start you today.

Reiker: Oh! Like, agreeing on a salary? Setting that up?

Eggman: No, I have a case for you to defend. If you meet my expectations, I'll sign you on full time.

Reiker: WHAT!? There's been a crime already!? I've only been here 30 minutes!

Eggman: No, no... This case has been on hold for quite a while. We simply haven't been able to assign a suitable lawyer for the defendant.

Reiker: ... You're kidding.

Eggman: I wish... The last buffoon ran off weeks ago. I've tried to reach out to other "well respected" lawyers, but most people don't trust a man hellbent on world domination who waged a global war and destroyed their livelihoods to hold a fair court of law.

Reiker: Oh, yeah... So I just-?

Eggman: You're due on stand at approximately 9 AM. You will find your client in the defense lobby.

Eggman: ... Oh, you'll also be needing this.

Attorney's Badge has been added to the Court Record.

Eggman: That badge will grant you free access to the judicial areas of the building. That being said, I'll see you in an hour.

Reiker: ... Wow.

Reiker: (I guess I got the job... But is this really happening? I'm still not sure of what I'm doing, but he's just... Tossing me into the deep end.)

Reiker: (... Is this a trap? Is this how I get roboticized?)

Reiker: (Well, I better get going. Definitely shouldn't no show on my first case... That wouldn't look good on my record, if it ever leaves this island.)

Reiker: (This must be the defense lobby. Now where is-)

???: ...

Reiker: (Is this... My client?)

???: ... Oh, um... Hello.

Reiker: (Gah, I'm freezing up! I need to say something...)

Reiker: Uh... Hi?

???: .........

Reiker: (Oof, that's no good... Why am I blanking now?)

Reiker: (Think, Reiker. You can be personable! Just take a breath. Ground yourself, visualize your Thought Pool and... Jump!)

Reiker doesn't always know what to do or say. That's when he needs help from his Thought Pool (that's you guys)! Simply reply to this post with what you think he should do next (actions, statements, questions, etc)!

Eternally Mine, Chapter 52

Louise had been awake for a little while the following morning. She found it so strange being back in her old room, with her vampire boyfriend. The thought made her smile like mad.

She couldn’t help but just stare at Chris for a while. He was so beautiful and peaceful, his features more prominent from the rising sun peeking through the curtains. She still couldn’t believe that he was with her, that they were soulmates.

Chris always told her that he was the lucky one, but she felt like it was the other way round. Having him meet her parents was a big thing for her, she had been so nervous that he was going to bail last minute or something and decide he didn’t want to be with her in a serious way. ‘Cause what was more serious than meeting the parents after all?

‘I can tell your mind is racing, pumpkin… Everything ok?’ Chris drawled sleepily as he suddenly opened his eyes.

Louise let out a small squeak and quickly closed her eyes in response, feeling shy at being caught staring at him. Chris chuckled and put his arms around her, pulling her in really close so he could nuzzle her nose with his.

‘I know you’re awake.’ He grinned.

Louise tried hiding in against his neck.

‘Nu uh, no hiding from me.’ He gently gripped her hair and pulled her head back as he leaned back to look at her, he moved his hand round to cup her cheek. ‘What’s on that pretty mind of yours, hmm?’

‘I was just admiring how beautiful you are.’ Louise said shyly.

Chris smiled and brushed his thumb against her cheek. ‘All this time together, and everything we’ve done together, yet you still blush so easily for me.’ He teased lightly, that just made her worse as she got more flustered.

‘I just have the biggest crush on you and still can’t believe I’m your soulmate. I feel like I’m going to wake up at any moment and find it’s all been a dream.’ She admitted.

Chris’ heart melted. He slid his fingers through her hair. ‘I have the biggest crush on you too, pumpkin. You have no idea how you make me feel, just being around you. Every time you look at me or I look at you, I can’t believe how lucky I am to have you in my life.’

It was Louise’s turn for her heart to melt.

‘I just… I feel like you’re way too good for me. You’re this incredible vampire that is so amazing, powerful, smart, handsome, fun... You’re in a band, have a good high respecting job… and I’m just…’

Chris put his finger over her mouth, then kissed her softly.

‘Do not speak down on yourself, I don’t want to hear that from you, sweetheart. You have the kindest, sweetest heart I’ve ever met. You’re fun, bright, bubbly and so incredibly beautiful and sexy. You trust me, completely. Not many people do... I can be myself with you. We both have our demons chasing us from our past, and have out insecurities, but we’re together and will get through everything together. I just wish that you’d see how amazing you are. That you deserve to be happy.’

Louise tried to keep her emotions in check.

‘I know you love me. I think my emotions are just a bit all over the place. Being here, for some reason, has made me kind of realise just how amazing you are. That you’re here, too. Meeting my parents, showing that you’re serious about our relationship. Seeing how you react around them in comparison to… you know who.’ She sighed.

‘Come here.’ Chris pulled her head into him and they just hugged for a while.

‘Do you fancy going for a walk to feed the ducks? There’s a pond not far from here, next to a park I used to go to when I was a child. I think there’s still ducks there.’ Louise suggested quietly.

‘Sounds like a good idea. Especially before our siblings wake up and no doubt go at it. I don’t think I can cope hearing that again.’ Chris groaned.

Louise laughed as they rolled out of bed to get dressed.

-

When Louise and Chris returned from feeding the ducks, Loki was up but Claire was still in bed. Kevin and Vicky were up too. They all had breakfast and kept some aside for Claire.

When Claire did eventually get up, Louise was in the living room with their mum, just chatting. Claire went through to the kitchen to get her breakfast, to find Chris stood by the patio doors, looking outside while drinking coffee.

Claire looked out from the window over the sink and saw Loki outside with her dad. They were walking around, chatting. Kevin patted Loki on the shoulder a few times and they were both smiling.

‘What are they talking about?’ Claire asked Chris as she grabbed her breakfast plate.

Chris shrugged. ‘Just seem to be talking about gardening. Perhaps Loki’s starting to have a mid-life crisis… be prepared to get a greenhouse and raised beds in the garden next.’ Chris smirked at her.

‘Oh god.’ Claire groaned and made her way through to the living room with her food.

When Loki came inside, he went to the living room where the other three were. Vicky had gone upstairs, Kevin was still outside watering his plants.

‘If you’re going to start gardening, don’t expect me to help with weeding.’ Claire said to him with a mouthful of food when he walked in.

Loki looked baffled and he glanced at Chris, who was grinning from ear to ear.

‘Sorry lil’ bro… she was wondering what you were talking about with Kevin. Had to break the news that you’re taking an interest in his garden.’ Chris chuckled.

‘Oh, uh… yeah. Kinda thinking about setting up a little vegetable plot.’ Loki said quickly.

‘That would be so cute. Grow your own food, save some money. Nothing wrong with gardening at all. It can be rewarding and relaxing.’ Louise smiled.

‘No way. I hate everything to do with weeds, dirt and seeds.’ Claire pulled a face.

‘Just because you killed every single plant that dad tried to get you to grow when we were little.’ Louise teased.

‘Plants just hate me.’ Claire huffed and shrugged.

‘Ok, maybe not a good idea then.’ Loki said as he rubbed the back of his head.

They spent the morning at Claire and Louise’s parents place before heading back on the road to go to the pods they were staying at for a few nights.

The girls were always sad saying bye to their parents, but they were looking forward to getting to the pods too. So they were a bit hyper in the car.

‘Maybe we should have split them up again.’ Loki muttered to Chris as he drove.

Claire stuck her tongue out at him, which he caught in the mirror and glared at her.

‘Seriously, are you sure you’re an adult? I’m starting to think you’re a five-year-old in disguise.’ Loki commented with a smirk.

Claire rolled her eyes in response.

It took a few hours to get to the holiday pods. It was in a beautiful secluded spot in the countryside, in the middle of nowhere. There was a large lake with a small patch of trees at the other side, the pods looked out onto the lake. There was no other house around for miles, so it was nice and peaceful.

‘This looks amazing!’ Louise squealed excitedly as she ran towards one of the pods.

‘I guess that’s our pod then.’ Chris chuckled and looked at Loki.

‘Fine with me. Let’s get settled and re-group in a few hours? Decide then what we’re going to do for dinner.’ Loki suggested.

‘Good plan.’ Chris nodded in agreement and grabbed his and Louise’s suitcase from the car, then followed her to the pod while Loki and Claire went to their one.

Louise found the key box already and had the doors opened by the time Chris came behind with the luggage.

‘Wow, it’s smaller than I thought.’ He laughed as he stepped inside, instantly making the place seem even smaller.

It was tiny. There was a small table with a little comfy looking sofa, a wood burning stove in the corner. At the other side of the pod was a small kitchen area with basic things, then there was a pull-out breakfast bar and a TV mounted on the wall above it.

There was two bedrooms at the end of the pod, the biggest one was just big enough for a double bed and two side tables at either side. There was a large mirror on the wall at the end of the bed. There was just enough room to walk around the bed. The other bedroom had a bunk bed, so they decided that would be where they kept their luggage.

It had a bathroom of course, which had a shower. It wasn’t like they would need a bath for relaxing in when they had a hot tub outside on the decking, as well as a picnic bench and a barbecue.

‘It is, but I love it. It’s all we need for a few days really.’ Louise said with a smile.

‘True. Means you won’t be able to run or hide from me.’ Chris growled and winked at her.

‘Damn, that’s a good point… Maybe me and Claire should share one and you and Loki the other. Just to keep me safe from any vampire attacks.’ Louise teased.

‘Don’t lie. You love my vampire attacks!’ Chris growled and launched for her, making her squeal as she tried to run but there was nowhere to go. So she was swiftly captured in the vampires’ arms.

He laughed wickedly as he nipped at her neck, his hands slid up under her top and he tickled her lightly, making her squirm more and laugh.

‘Mmm, you know… we’ve got a few hours before we’re re-grouping with our siblings… and that mirror in the bedroom is giving me some ideas.’ Chris hummed against her skin.

‘Couldn’t wait to get here so you’d have me all to yourself again, huh?’ Louise grinned at him and felt his excitement pressing against her stomach.

‘Of course I couldn’t.’ He chuckled and scooped her up in his arms, making her squeak.

He carried her into the bedroom, but had to be careful manoeuvring her in, so he wouldn’t hit her head off the door or wall.

‘Right, this is going to take a little skill.’ He placed her down on her feet at the end of the bed and began removing her clothes.

‘God, you take my breath away. You’re stunning, pumpkin.’ Chris groaned, trying to keep himself in check once he had her naked on front of him.

She blushed at his words as he lightly trailed his fingers up her side, brushing against the side of her breast. He pulled his t-shirt off and tossed it to the floor, she took that opportunity to start unbuckling his belt.

While she did that, he was back to fondling her and commenting on her body again. Making her face feel like it was on fire.

‘Stoooop.’ She laughed shyly and pressed her face into his chest for a moment.

Chris cupped her chin and brushed his thumb over her lips. ‘Stop telling the truth?’ He asked with a coy smile.

She put her hands over her face, she still couldn’t really take compliments well without wanting to hide. Even from Chris. Though he did make her feel beautiful, all the time.

Louise tried to distract him, she started tugging his jeans down, he helped and slipped them right down and off, then pulled her onto the bed before she could do anything else.

He grabbed hold of her and sat in the middle of the bed, placing her in his lap on front of him, facing the mirror. He used his feet to wrap around hers and pull her legs apart.

‘Put your arms up behind my neck, pumpkin.’ He whispered and trailed his fingers lightly up her thighs, making her shiver.

He noticed she was trying not to look in the mirror that was right on front of them while she put her hands behind his neck, pushing her breasts out.

‘Look in the mirror, pumpkin. I want you to see what I see.’ Chris growled deep as he nuzzled into her hair and started fondling her breasts.

She whined and briefly glanced at the mirror, then turned her head to the side. Chris slid his dominant hand up to her neck, he wrapped his hand around and forced her to look.

Her eyes widened and she did feel her heart skip a beat upon seeing Chris behind her, holding her in the way he was. She knew his hand was big but it looked even bigger seeing it around her throat like that.

Heck, she realised that Chris really was huge, in comparison to her anyway. Though she wasn’t tiny, really, but she wasn’t super tall either. Chris being a vampire, he was just really large in all aspects. Seeing them together like this, made her realise how much though. The thought that he could probably just crush her like a bug crossed her mind, yet she found that more arousing than she probably should.

Chris brushed his thumb up and down the side of her throat as he looked at her intensely in the mirror. His other hand squeezed her breasts before venturing south between her legs, where he dragged his nails against her skin on her inner thighs, teasing her.

‘You’re going to watch yourself come undone, love. I want you to see the beauty that I see.’

‘Nooooo. You’re really making me do this?’ Louise whined loudly.

Chris chuckled and put his hand over her cunt, just resting there, laying claim as he sucked on her shoulder a little then squeezed her neck. ‘I most certainly am.’

He felt her grip around the back of his neck tighten when he started to play with her, already finding her wet… Which he could smell anyway, but he loved feeling it too. He started slowly stroking her clit, and had to squeeze her neck a few times as a reminder to look in the mirror.

She tried just looking at his face above her, but his eye contact was intense, she found herself blushing so hard and having to look away now and then, making him smirk. He knew exactly what he was doing.

So she ended up focusing on his hands, not just the one wrapped firmly around her neck that was almost enough to make her cum alone, but the one that was down between her legs. Making her body tingle all over as she began to squirm.

‘Look at the way your body flushes so nicely for me, the way your chest starts to heave as you get closer.’ He whispered low, his finger circling her clit firmly and slowly, building her up nicely.

Louise did see what he meant when she looked at herself, though she found she was beginning to struggle to focus when he slipped two fingers into her, curling them in just the right way.

She could feel Chris’ arousal hard against her lower back, she knew that it was her making him like that… Though she still couldn’t quite understand why, exactly. She felt like she was average, if anything. Nothing special really. Sure, she had all the womanly parts needed to make a man feel good. Chris worshipped the ground she walked on and made her feel like a queen. Though she just couldn’t see why, really.

‘Babe… please… I can’t… need more…’ Louise whimpered as she fought to keep her eyes open and on the mirror.

Chris knew how difficult this was for her, how she struggled to accept her beauty. Though he still had another trick up his sleeve. While she was close to coming, he stopped abruptly. Making her eyes fly wide open as she whined in disappointment.

Chris laughed and kissed her shoulder. He then re-positioned her. ‘Keep your hands behind my neck, sweetheart… but straddle over me. I need to get inside you.’ He groaned, his voice strained.

He gripped her hips and helped her to sit up and get her legs at either side of his thighs, then he pulled her down onto him.

Instead of being prompted to, she looked in the mirror willingly to see her body slowly sinking down on his cock. The way her body opened up around him, taking him in, her heart began racing so much she thought it was going to explode out of her chest.

Chris controlled her movements, easing her down very slowly until he was fully inside her. Then he held her there in place, just letting them be together. He could feel her body fluttering around him so wonderfully.

‘Fuuuuuck!’ She cried out.

‘That’s it. Good girl. See how beautiful you are? Fuck… look at the way your body can take my big cock. You’re so perfect.’ He praised and kissed up the side of her neck, her eyes fluttered in pleasure.

She dug her nails into the back of Chris’ neck in desperation, spurring him on. He thrust up into her, making her catch her breath. He lifted her up and started bouncing her up and down on his cock, not needing to do overly much though as she began moving too.

With one hand remaining on her hip to help control her movements, he slid his other hand down her body again to torment her clit at the same time. It didn’t take long at all for her to reach the end. She closed her eyes as she began to cum, but Chris swiftly reached up to grip her neck, her eyes flew open to look in the mirror.

‘Ah, ah. You need to see yourself as you cum, pumpkin. It’s the most wonderful sight.’ He groaned as he was struggling to keep himself composed.

Louise was able to force herself to keep looking at them both in the mirror. She focused mainly on Chris, and how tiny she looked with him. Though then she started to take the scene of them both as a couple… That perhaps, they were one damn hot couple, actually.

Chris came too, straight after she finished clenching around him. She nearly passed out seeing his cum dribbling out of her, seeing themselves in the mirror while fucking was actually a lot hotter than she thought it would be. Seeing things she wouldn’t normally see…

Ten minutes later, they lay together in bed… the right way up in bed. They were snuggling close, stroking one another’s bodies lightly.

‘Now, pumpkin. Tell me, what have you learned?’ Chris asked, his tone lazy and low.

She pondered for a moment, then spoke up. ‘That I’m fucking tiny and you’re huge!’

Chris couldn’t help but burst out laughing, making her giggle too. He grabbed her and growled, rolling them slightly till she was under him so he could lean over her.

‘Well, that is true. Yes. You’re my tiny little pumpkin.’ He grinned and nuzzled her nose with his. ‘Though what else have you learned?’

She went silent again, but this time thought properly.

‘I… I still don’t really see what you see in me… but, I do think we look pretty hot together. You bring out the beauty in me.’ She smiled and slid her fingers through his hair.

Chris smiled softly and kissed her on the lips.

‘Not exactly what I had been aiming for… but definitely a step in the right direction. And you’re damn right, we are a hot couple.’ He grinned.

He was pleased that she was starting to see differently. Though he just wished that she would see the beauty in herself that he sees.

I've been mulling over the Labyrinth arc specifically the questers decision to allow Boris to come, with it being brought up again with Felix trying to adopt Boris. Little disclaimer I have not reread the Labyrinth arc so I will probably miss out on a couple details here.

A question that I really been trying to wrack my brain around is "what could they have done for Boris". I remember when the labyrinth arc was happening I was so mad at the questers for the way that they were treating Boris. Especially as a teenager myself (14-15 at the time so literally the same age as Boris). But now that I think about it I really do want to know what the questers could have done because I feel like no matter that choice Boris would have gone anyway.

At this point Boris had recently run away when he was told that he could not be apart of saving his brother, right. So he has already demonstrated that he can and will put himself and others in danger to be with Bendy. I know some people said that he should have stayed back with the circus crew and I believe the circus crew would have definitely tried their best but ultimately we have to remember that he's a street kid, he knows how to get around adults, I don't think that they could have truly stopped him from going if he wanted to. Again he has already demonstrated that he will pick bendy over everyone else no matter how close you are to him. To Boris it's truly always been him and Bendy against the world, he's already burnt bridges with the relationships he built up. He now has a rocky relationship with the adult figures that he trusted, he thinks they should despise him.

Now I want to make clear that I am absolutely not excusing the clear adultification that a lot of the characters do to Boris specifically in this arc. It still really pisses me off, he is an emotional 14 year old boy of course he did the terrible things that he did, his frontal lobe isn't developed he can't think his actions through as well as the adults around him can. Specifically looking at you Michael Bradley I know your traumatised but wtf that is a child. Kinda excluding Cuphead though, he was a real one with how he acted with this.

Coming back to Felix here. I think Felix should have really honed in on the decision that they made by bringing Boris along. Felix should have sat Boris down and really had a talk to him with how dangerous it was going to be. Obviously we know that the questers did not expect how truly dangerous it would be but Felix has already done extremely dangerous stuff before so I think he definitely could have better prepared Boris for what they were going into. With what I mentioned in the paragraph above though I think I can really see why Felix made the decision he did. He already told Boris no and it ended with him being severely hurt emotionally and being cursed physically. And we can see in Felix' POV how deeply that scared Felix. Although I really do wish that he sat Boris down and truly told him how he felt about Boris running away and how he only wants to protect Boris. Really try to make him see how much he cares for him and try and build up that trust again.

Honestly so much of this stuff that happens really they could have been resolved if these idiots would just talk to each other, the miscommunication in this series istg :').

Ultimately I don't think that there was a "right" or "correct" choice that would have ended in Boris being safe from the record. There were definitely things that characters could have handled a lot better but truly none of them could have been prepared for how messed up the Labyrinth really turned out to be. Also could the questers have even gotten the record without Boris? I feel like Boris was needed for the record I truly don't know how they would have gotten the record otherwise with how hard it was for Boris to get it.

I really wish I wrote down my opinions and feelings at the time to how I feel about the arc now that I'm an adult, because of how close in age to Boris I was so I could truly relate to some of the feelings he was feeling with the adults around them. And now as an adult I can see more why the adults around him made the decisions they made.

Please, someone stop me from listening to Josh Groban, because otherwise I will end up DRAWING ANOTHER "MOTTIE AT BED" ARTWORK.

Like seriously, I cannot.

When I hear him sing "You have no idea" all I can hear is Mathias singing to Dorothea AND MY HEART CANNOT TAKE IT.

IT'S EXPLODING WITH SOFT TENDERNESS.

(and I have become the joke of my own household, because my husband, loving Josh as much as I do, now DOES IT ON PURPOSE OF PUTTING HIM ON OUR SPEAKERS, especially when he sees that I am busy working on something not Mottie-related. He knows how my brain works. HE KNOWS IT. So if sometimes you see me derailing, IT'S MR. NEMO'S FAULT AS WELL).

what if i lost the will to live like. as a joke. what then.

i am officially, FINALLY all caught up again in both the manga and the anime for bsd and OH BOY there are thoughts and opinions but also WHO CARES because my tags are finally FREE to be unfiltered

Having of those moments where I wish to yeet the like button into the sun or maybe make it so there was setting you could turn on so that people can only reblog posts (even better with the minimum requirement of adding at least one tag)!!

It's kind of absurd that one of my fics is getting close to 500 notes while simultaneously being one I've had the least actual human interactions come from. Like...... come on, that's now how it should be AT ALL!

Don't get me wrong, I'm so thrilled people are clearly finding it and I guess enjoying it(??) but just having endless likes without people letting me know what they enjoyed about it or even if they liked it kind of makes me sad. That's not why I want to share my writing here!

I love having those little human connections with others. I don't ever want my writing to feel transactional. I would love to talk to more people about things I've written. It's truly one of the best feelings and I would hate to lose that, the more I write or the more notes my fics get. Please don't be shy!! I get the social anxiety, but there is no reason to be. I am truly just a Din Djarin obsessed loser.

Anyway, whine over. I don't want to focus on the negatives here and I appreciate every single person who has ever left a positive interaction with something I've written. You are truly a light!
