Song of the Day: December 18

“On the Steps of the Palace" from Stephen Sondheim's best musical "Into the Woods" (I'm partial to the original Broadway cast recording, but the 2002 revival is also good)

While the adaptation of House from crime to medical makes so much sense, im kind of terrified by the inevitable story beats of a sherlock adaptation.

Faking your own death makes sense if you are a detective going up against the greatest criminal minds of the day, but im kind of afraid of what House is going to do that makes that kind of clownery the only logical choice.

teehee :3

omg i placed a jimmy johns order for the first time using their app and i got a "do you love our app" type popup and i like to be honest, i liked how the app worked compared to others so i clicked "yes" so it would prompt me to leave a review and instead the popup window just said "we love you too!" sobbing

HAI.. i am wondering, how do you go about drawing arms for mech characters? i have an oc i've been trying to figure out an arm design for MONTHS now, trying to think about it in a way that makes it looks like the joints could work, so i'm wondering if you have any tips? if not, that's completely ok!! anyway hope u dont mind but heres some images of her because i love her and wanna show them around like she's my kid

HELLO!! ^__^ well! my usual kind of go-to design is this one

^pretty heavily based on just how a human arm functions, more or less.

orrr i would go with this?^ to get into like. the technicalities (and don't take me as an authority or anything) i'd say the only like. kinda important thing? to remember when you design a robot arm with a larger variety of movement is to include a ball joint where it connects to the shoulder. you can also go with noodle arms ^__^ i honestly don't have that much to say about joints since i usually just. make something up that looks kinda like it would work and run with it. BUT i would advise looking at types of hinges, human skeletons to see how it all connects and since you'd have a good understanding of how you can move certain parts of your body aaaand some robots! maybe those industrial arms that build cars in this case? i think like they could serve as inspiration for something more complicated with more joints or a mix of different types of joints. like a rubber spring for example (which i think could work about as well as a ball joint). speaking of rubber joints and something unconventional!

^here you can see the lower arm is pretty much static (except for the wrist) (speaking of the wirst i'd say slap a ball joint in there as well), while the upper arm is responsible for all the movement. in the second sketch i just kind of wanted to visualize what i meant by "rubber spring", but the rest applies. i'd say think about how the other mobile parts on her look and then decide what kind of movement do you want her to have! good luck and she looks really fun and pretty! love her visor!! :3

aroace voice: actually, this is the happiest I've been :^)

this game constantly makes me delighted with the amount of platonic interactions it gives you. you really feel like a group of friends hanging out, and you can form friendships with a group of 10 people (who all have their own ties to one another) all without romancing a single one and having everyone still be single yet friends with one another for a year going strong-- ik this is common fare in this type of game, but coming from other games where it's nearly impossible to avoid the romance aspect without it being somewhat forced on the player over time makes it feel extra special. obviously it could use less of a negative voice about not having significant others, but overall I find 3oT's treatment of platonic relationships to be very well done.

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭13:4‭-‬7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

[4] Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. [5] It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. [6] Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. [7] It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

for the ask meme (I'm usually such an embarrassment sending you stuff bc I don't realize it's RP specific I haven't been online long enough rip but I don't think this is):

I LOVE YOUR PORTRAYAL OF LOUIS SO SO SO MUCH YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND IT'S BECOME CANON TO ME. Louis can be rather tricky for me to get a grasp on, but honestly you just bring him fully to life in a way I wish Anne had! Girl, you have me reading Loustat because I love your Louis so much, that is my be-all end-all compliment. Like YES, ASHLEY'S LOUIS IS THE ONE WHO CRIPPLED LESTAT AND ENSLAVED ARMAND 🤧 Sometimes someone just speaks on/through a character so beautifully you can't help but fall in love with them too. 🖤

P.S. - goes without saying but your A/L kitten thread was a highlight of a very dark winter for me and I think about it a lot because y'all are just so so talented and it's an absolute delight to follow along, we are truly blessed in the year 2023 🙏🏻

「   ASK MEME :   HOW’S MY PORTRAYAL?   」

SOBBING okay sorry I may or may not have selfishly kept this in my inbox to get me through the week, (and also because I wanted to get some more writing done before answering this so I could feel Worthy) but asdfgfhghbjsednkgr this means so much to me!!!!!

Louis is super tricky for me as well, especially since we don't really get much of his POV outside of IWTV so pretty much everything that I write just feels like me throwing darts in the dark lmfao but I love him so so so much and it just makes me happy to know that that love is infectious enough to reach the most brilliant and devout armand girlies LOL!!

5. explain what ao3 is

6. merlin/arthur tag

hypothetical scenario for you all: the real king arthur returns. you meet him and you welcome him into your home. what is the first thing you do with him? keep in mind, this is a man from the 500s (he died in 542), and you are from the 21st century (2024).

[fumiliar]

you rarely get mad at kento, to be honest, there's nothing to get mad at. he's the perfect man, he's everything you've wanted and more. but it doesn't mean you never get mad at him. you always scold him when he spoils you too much, you hate it. today was one of those days, kento had promised to let you spoil him today, but you uneventfully had to work overtime, making you come home later than kento. so when you came home, you were fully prepared to start cooking dinner immediately, but instead, the smell of tomatoes flooded your senses. kento was cooking...for you.

anyone would love for their fiancé to spoil them after a long day, but you weren't up for it today. not when he's been spoiling you rotten and taking care of you for the past month, you just wanted to do something for him, but you couldn't. you were annoyed at yourself, so annoyed you had unfortunately misdirected this anger at your innocent fiancé who was peacefully cooking.

"hi love, i'm cooking some sp-"

"spaghetti. i know."

"are you upset? did something happen at work?"

"no!" you shouted, startling kento. "why do you think it's about work? it's you. you're the thing that is making me upset." hearing those words, he immediately turned off the stove, giving his undivided attention towards you.

"tell me what i did that made you upset, please," he approached you. he held your hand, drawing circles at the back of your palms with his thumb.

".......let me spoil you ken," you looked at him.

"you want to...spoil me?" kento's demeanour faltered, his stoic face had changed to a delighted one. his shoulders instantly relaxed.

"yes kento!" you shouted out of frustration. "you spoil me so much, i just.....want to do something for you."

"go ahead," he gave a quick peck on your cheek, quickly untying his apron. "where do you want to start first?"

[pynkhues]

do you plan on watching mike flanagan's the fall of the house of usher?

I do! I'm on the road at the moment travelling, so I'm not really able to watch much of anything, but I get home next week and am planning on watching it then. :-)

ᥫ᭡. how the rafe's fuck you.

If I'm being honest, Season One Rafe does not know how to fuck you properly.

Rafe's sexual prowess was lacking in technique and selflessness, his thick cock a mere tool for his own pleasure rather than a passionate conduit for his partner's (your) ecstasy.

With that being said, of course he thinks he's hitting that spot inside of you--I mean, the guys ego is bigger then his dick. And that's saying something.

You bite your lip, stifling a moan - not of pleasure, but of frustration. Rafe's hips snap against yours in a frantic, uneven rhythm as he chases his own release. His eyes are screwed shut, completely oblivious to your unsatisfied state.

"Oh yeah, baby, you feel so good," he grunts, his breath hot against your neck.

You resist the urge to roll your eyes. Instead, you wrap your legs tighter around his waist, angling your hips in a desperate attempt to get some friction where you need it most. But it's no use. Rafe's too focused on himself to notice your subtle hints.

Just as you're contemplating faking it to get this over with, Rafe lets out a strangled groan. His body tenses, then shudder, and he's coming deep inside of you, and you're still left panting like a bitch because you haven't come yet.

(honorable mentions: When it comes to fucking with season one Rafe, he will refuse to perform any oral on you--he thinks it's gross--this doesn't mean he doesn't expect blow jobs from you, though. Also, in season one, Rafe either pulls off the condom mid-fuck, or forces you to go on birth control just to fuck you raw.) 

Season Two Rafe, on the other hand? That's a whole different story. He just comes across as so fucking reckless when he fucks you, y'know?

He fucks so angry.

He's all raw energy and unbridled passion, like a storm you can't control but can only surrender to. When Rafe's hands are on you, it's electric - every touch sends shockwaves through your body. His kisses are hungry, almost desperate, as if he's trying to devour you whole.

There's an edge of danger to it all, a thrill that makes your heart race. You never quite know what he'll do next - pin you against the wall, throw you onto the bed, or drop to his knees in front of you. That unpredictability is intoxicating.

And when he finally enters you, it's with a forcefulness that takes your breath away. Rafe fucks like a man possessed, all grinding hips and guttural moans. His fingers dig into your flesh, leaving marks you'll find later and trace with a secret smile.

Primarily he still chases his own high, but you can't help but let out a moan or two just by how rough he fucks you. The realization crawled through Rafe's body like a languid, tingling vine, filling him with a desperate craving for more of your euphonious moans.

In Season Three, Rafe is a new man - older, more mature, and eager to please. As he starts to devour your pussy, his experience comes through as a welcomed bonus. His movements are calculated and skillful, his tongue dancing over your sensitive flesh with practiced ease, as he realizes sex is more enjoyable when both parties are having fun.

Rafe's eyes glimmer with a mischievous delight, a smirk playing on his lips as he watches you with anticipation, your body convulsing and your cunt spasming just from his tongue??

It's a big ego booster to Rafe knowing he can do that to your body.

But it's not just his mouth that knows what it's doing now. His hips know how to move, how to find that sweet spot that ignites sparks of pleasure throughout your body. He's learned the power of slow, deep thrusts followed by quick, shallow ones - a combination that never fails to send you into a frenzy.

And it's not just about his dick anymore. Rafe's hands roam your body with purpose, memorizing every curve and eliciting shivers of delight from your skin. His lips are like fire on your skin, leaving a trail of heat wherever they touch - your neck, your breasts, the inside of your thighs.

When he finally sinks into you, it's with a low groan that reverberates through both of your bodies. He watches you closely, taking note of every gasp and moan as he adjusts his rhythm to suit your pleasure.

Like a mirror image of his previous self in season three, Rafe in Season Four is still eager to please both of you. But now, he approaches your pleasure with a gentle touch, taking extra care as he fucks you.

With every thrust, his mind is consumed with thoughts of marrying you, and it only intensifies his desire for you. Every moan and gasp that escapes from your lips only fuels his passion further. He knows that he wants to spend the rest of his life making love to you, and nothing could stop him from doing so.

Every movement, every touch, is charged with an intensity that goes beyond mere physical pleasure. Rafe's hands roam your body with reverent desperation, as if trying to memorize every curve and contour. His lips brush against your neck, your collarbone, whispering promises of forever between heated kisses.

You can feel the change in him, the shift from lover to potential life partner. It's in the way he looks at you, eyes burning with a mixture of lust and something deeper, more profound. It's in the way he holds you closer, as if afraid you might slip away if he loosens his grip even for a moment.

As your bodies move together in perfect synchronicity, you can't help but wonder if this is all happening too fast. Is Rafe really ready for this level of commitment, or is he caught up in his jealousy of Sarah's unexpected pregnancy? The thought flits through your mind, but you find yourself swept up in the passion of the moment, surrendering to the moment, to the electric sensation of Rafe's touch on your bare skin.

as always, reblogs and comments keeps me motivated. 🫶🏾
