SIT ON MY FACE, CALL ME DADDY.

Pairing: Lookism men x f! Reader

Summary: facesitting on lookism men, and how they would eat you out. 📼

Warning: face sitting, pussy pleasing & sexual theme.

JAKE KIM 👑

This man LOVES pussy, a real munch. he’ll be between your thighs for almost hours lapping your juices and biting your thighs. roughly slapping them when you try to move away from his grasp.

He’d just pull you back against his face by your thighs and throw your legs on his back. When you pull his face away from your cunt by his hair his scar is covered with your slick and cum. Honestly makes your hole throb on nothing.

He fingers you during his session, his favourite moment is when your body twitches and your trapping him between your legs almost crushing his skull. he continues sucking like his life depends on it happily grunting below you.

You’d wake up with him sucking on your clit , litereally just nose diving into it, obviously with consent. He’d do this so much to the point you threatened him with no sex or pussy for a week.

He cried in his sleep having to hold it together to not rip off your panties and just dig in. But he just loves his girl so much so he doesn’t mind the punishment <333

“Jake…get your hands away from my clit , now.”

“I can’t help it , it’s calling my name.”

he pouts continuing to suck on your hardened nipples all while rubbing your spot, hands flying to pull him away from your sore breasts but quickly giving up when noticing this man isn’t going anywhere.

JAMES LEE 💿

now I’m not 100% sure he’s as obsessed with eating you out like Jake , but if you were lying on your back legs spread and panties showing from underneath his oversized blouse he’ll be on top of you in a second ripping the blouse off and the buttons popping off.

He’s observant while sucking, Each move or small moan he goes deeper or faster. Ofcourse he’d tease from time to time but stop when he notices the small pout forming on your face.

like Jake he’d finger you with 2 fingers pumping in and out at a rapid speed causing you to twitch into the air with your hips and his long tongue making circling 0’s on your clit.

He’d also come back up with your juices on his lips , smiling from ear to ear and happily laying on your bare chest to give the abandoned breasts some attention.

“You taste good , it’s very addictive I might make this a hobby.”

“Please don’t, your fangs ruined my thighs. Look at how many marks you left.”

“Whoops, I’ll make it up to you promise-“

GUN PARK 💳

He’d ONLY eat you out from time to time, he’s not as pussy obsessed like Jake or James, but he’ll do it when he hasn’t seen his darling in weeks due to his business.

Would get disappointed when you only hover above his face not fully setting your weight down on his face. Slapping your thighs Harshly before taking matters into his own hands, literally.

forcing you down by the thighs, immediately latching onto it roughly sucking and making sure your thighs stick against his head. Grinding down back against his tongue for more friction and begging for your sweet release.

he’ll tease by saying to hold it in, only allowing it when he’s satisfied before you yell out his name letting go of yourself and cumming on this man’s face.

would continue sucking to make you sensitive, he wants to fuck you afterwards to make the experience worthy and overstimulate you after all hes an asshole. Just because he’s your boyfriend doesn’t mean he’ll be gentle.

“Put your fucking weight down, why are you hovering. I said Sit.”

“It’s embarrassing, just give me a few gun..-“

“Alright enough, get your ass on my face I’m not asking again.”

“Fu-ah! Wait, don’t immediately start sucking ah!-“

“Be quiet, you wanted this. Now scream for your daddy.”

SAMUEL SEO 🚬

now when you asked him to eat you out, this asshole was mocking you saying he doesn’t wanna and he likes being sucked off instead. I’m sorry but he’s SELFISH.

After a while of begging he thought of a way to pleasure you both. 69 position. Now your currently bend over ass close to his face and hardened cock right infront of you. while sucking on his tip and trying to take him whole he just plunges fingers knuckles deep into you curling them.

gagging on his cock and moaning he thrusts roughly into your mouth deeper forcing your jaw to become sore and drool mixing with precum to drip down. He knew how to multi task that’s what he was known for

quickly forgetting about his dick you sit up reverse cowgirl position, ass still on his face he wraps his arms around your waist and sucks even harder. His fat rough tongue lapping up everything you gave to him.

Riding his face and moaning loudly he slaps your ass a few times hard leaving a hand print. His tattooed arms spurring you on even further when one of his hands play with your boobs. He’s filthy and rough slapping you all over. And you cum fast still riding on his face coming down from your climax.

“ yeah yeah, fuck! Daddy, daddy…!” the name makes him groan below you and you notice his cock becomes even hard and angry his veins on display. Poor abandoned dick right infront of you touching it slowly, but forgetting it again when he keeps sucking.

“call me daddy, and I’ll let you cum.” he smirks and you can feel it, obeying his request sure to let the neighbors know what was going on. Not giving a damn just yelling out his name and your throat going sore.

“That’s right, fuckin’ whore anything for that release huh? Let daddy pleasure you.”

How Lookism characters would eat you out

- Daniel, vasco, zack, gun, goo, Dg

Daniel Park

He’s a virgin. Cant expect much homie

I’d expect him to be a quick learner so he’d look at you throughout it, very experimental with it

Soft kitten licks soft kitten licks soft kitten licks.

Oh? You like it here instead? Okay! He’ll go crazy 💯

Id see him as quite shy and nervous as he wouldn’t know what he’s doing though he’d get more comfortable and confident with reassuring words!

As he gets more used to it you’ll be in tears

Soft and sensual licks, his face buried inside you flicking his tongue the way he knows drives you crazy

UI Daniel on the other hand… a menace. Absolute menace.

Forget walking bby you’ll forget how to think all together

Goodluck soldier

Vasco

I LOVE VASCO

WHYRE HIS BONKERS SO FUCKING HUGE????

He’s so cute I feel like he’d be so dumb and lick the left flap

Like I KNOW he’d do smt wrong by accident bc the poor guys just so confused

Somehow has a charm to him like somehow

Maybe it’s bc his milkers are so large you get delusional or maybe it’s bc his abs are all sweaty and he looks hot but theres SOME CHARM THERE

Vascos so cute

Would put your release before his like it’s a priority he’d put the burn knuckles on the line for it

Wants to make you feel good so teach him the way and he’d do wonders

Zack Lee

I see him as a body worshipper or like he’d be into praise

Pls tell him he’s doing a good job

Very sweet I love zack

Still a taken man tho keep scrolling boo 😒

Gun

Would he even eat you out or would he get straight to pounding your brains out let’s think for a second

Have a strong feeling he’d be so aggressive

Strong and power licks. Like not even kidding

Have you seen his body maybe he does tongue workouts too u never know??

You want him to go slower? He’ll go faster. You want him to go faster? He’ll go slower. You want him eat you out at all? He’ll dip.

Imagine he outs the glasses on and somehow gets turned on by it GOODBYE

Hiii Can I request a James lee ( Lookism ) x Introvert Male!reader who often dresses in "feminine" clothes and who likes makeup plz please ?

I Just Like The Way You Are.

Male Reader

Requested.

Request Rules.

Masterlist.

Finally!! A James Lee requestt, you guys don't know how much I love this man 😭😭😭😭

James watched as [Name] did his makeup in front of his vanity mirror, he watched with interest at how his boyfriend was able to do his makeup so easily like it was 2nd nature.

He leaned against the the palm of his hand, as he watched from behind. [Name] caught James staring at through the mirror, he blushed seeing his boyfriend staring intently at him.

[Name] turned around to look at the red head. "I-Is something wrong James..?" He asked as he put down his makeup brush.

The red head was quiet before he stood up and walked over to [Name] making the boy confused on what James was doing, he stared at James who stared back at him. "James..?" "How..." [Name] looked at him confusion. "Huh...? What are you talking about James?" He asked before he felt James hand on his face, softly gripping his chin. "How can you be so beautiful?" James said making [Name] blush at the compliment.

"E-Eh? What are you talking about?" [Name] bashfully said as James chuckle as he took the sucker from his mouth.

"I'm just simply stating the truth, you look beautiful. With how you carefully applied your makeup and dress up in such cute feminine clothing, people would expect you are my girlfriend instead of my boyfriend." James said as [Name] slightly pouted.

James chuckled as he put his sucker back into his mouth. "What? I'm simply stating the truth.." He said as he kissed his boyfriend's forehead.

"But that's what I love about you, you're confident in yourself and don't let others stop you from doing what you feel comfortable.." James said making [Name] feel putty at his words as his pout turned into a smile.

"Whatever..."

[Name] said as he looked away and continued doing his makeup, James chuckle as he leaned against the table, watching as his boyfriend continued to do his makeup for their date today.

His eyes trailed down to the outfit [Name] was wearing today. The clothes he was wearing looked good on him, even if it was considered a girl's outfit and that [Name] shouldn't be wearing it because he's a boy.

But [Name] doesn't care what people or society says, he likes wearing it, he feels comfortable wearing it.

And that's what made James gravitate to him, seeing [Name] confident on what he does and is not afraid to show what he likes nor what other people think because of the way he is.

Just so what his interests and the way he dresses is considered to be a girl? He likes it and he feels amazing when he wear those. And James just loves it, in his opinion. It just made [Name] even more attracted to him.

James just loved him so much.

"James, are you ready?" He snapped out of thoughts when he heard [Name] call out to him, he looked at [Name] who was already done with his makeup. James smiled at nodded.

"Yup, c'mon. Let's go for our date."

Rich!bottom!Character × Dom!male!reader

You know that K-drama trope where the bratty person A is used to rich classy lifestyle and then suddenly falls in love with mature minded but broke person B, and is shown how absolutely different life works for them? Yeah.

Fandoms mentioned : lookism, blood of zues,record of Ragnarok

He's always been used to the fame, scandals, rich and classy lifestyle that he worked for. Which is why meeting you was like a totally new experience for him. Given that you were a total hunk, yet you are so...fair? In a way.

He's always getting what he wants whenever he wants. Multiple men and women surrounding him. Not to mention he has multiple rivals who hate his guts, maybe because of his bitchy attitude from being given so much special treatment from the rest. Maybe the fact that he's got his arrogant confident side, giving out sly remarks that get on all his rivals' nerves.

But ever since he's stumbled upon you, on that faithful day...things became different. Like, you were some total hot stuff! As much as he tried to shake off the feeling he got from seeing you, it not once stopped his belly from pooling with heat. The way you'd be chopping up some wood to fix your dirty old shed, the sweat trickling from your body...that resting bitch face you had on...was he drooling? Not to mention, you were really fucking good at fighting, how did someone like you end up in such a dirty place to begin with?

He really liked hanging out with you, enjoying your peculiar demeanor..—it was all so new to him. He'd come visit you in your dirty shed, just uncomfortably sitting in your old beaten up couch, maybe even eyeing your lap, thinking it would be a better place to sit in

Sometimes he'd even bring you to his luxurious penthouse, and have you fuck his guts out. Who knew you were also experienced in sex and foreplay? What a sly bastard you were. He'd be surprised to see you just treat your broken arm with some old cloth, or using herbs and other homemade remedies to treat yourself. Him? A little cold would make him suffer and probably call the doctor to check up on him—but here you are with a broken limb, a bunch of scars covering your body, and- Is that a bullet wound???!!

He'd get pissy whenever someones trying to make moves on you, like, who do they think they are? You're HIS boyfriend! Not to mention how oblivious you were to the constant flirting you'd receive from a few admirers.

But cut him some slack, he really does love you. Despite the fact that you are quite odd, he really really does like you (and the way you pound his guts out). Which is why he plans to keep you as his dog. You are his one and only from now on. Oh well, better bid goodbye to the rats in your shed, you'll be busy for a while.

[lookismsdealer]

can you do one where James Lee meets a reader who can fight exactly like him? But more stronger?

If James met a stronger opponent

At first, James had no faith or belief, that he would ever see the day, where he would be the one to be on the ground, below someone's feet after an intense fight

He would do everything to get information out of you:

Fighting? Flopped.

Threatening? Didn't work.

Gun to your head? Tiring.

Using an innocent person's life on the line? Not bothered.

You were just different. You were like him, but different. He had the strength, you had it better. He had the strategy, you were more wiser. He was built different, you were built better. Everything was different about you and he didn't like it

He would try and study you, watch your movements, your fight strategies, your skills and observe what kind of mentality you lived by.

As you get used to seeing him more, it's become a habit for him to greet you, through attacks as they all flopped in the worst ways.

"I'm starting to think you have eyes at the back of your head"

"no? Then it's definitely an earpiece, someone is definitely watching and their just alerting you when your bound to be attacked"

"wrong again? Then you memorised my movements"

He would find excuses to deny that you just naturally know when things happen and how they end

He would follow you everywhere. He just couldn't understand why and how you were so much stronger than him. Maybe even Gun and that was just as bad as it was

But he knew for sure, he wants to be on your side. He can't have someone like you slip and end up on the wrong side of people. He would be at loss

You were just that person. Different. You were better. And for sure, he would do anything to get you on his side. He can't have you as an enemy, that's too risky

With your talent and strength, it risks his humiliation and title as both the strongest fighter and an idol who is adored by millions.

At the end of the day, you were never better than anyone. You were never the best or worst. You were just the same as James Lee.

He was the problem this whole time. Comparing himself to people was his problem and that led him to believe, maybe, he was just never good enough, therefore, he will never be as good as you are. Not with that personality and cruel mentality

And with the way you are, your just as normal as everyone else. Not James.

The last time [Name] and James spent Christmas together were about two years ago, especially considering how busy the pink-haired man was at that time of year. This day was therefore extremely special to [Name].

"I'm glad you were able to make it, [Name]. Uhm, please, come on in, it's pretty cold out here."

James spoke, a tinge of nervousness in his voice, as he carefully dragged the [h/c] into his residence. He then removed the male's coat and hung it up on the coat hanger that was placed by the front door.

[Name] entered the living room and took a seat on one of the couches. James then went into the kitchen to get a glass of water and returned to the room to hand it to [Name], the male silently thanking him.

"Oh, right, there was something I wanted to give you. Uhm, just wait here for a bit." Having said that, James quickly walked away from the [h/c] and went to his room. There, he took the small box off his bedside table and went back downstairs to [Name].

"Here, it's something I've been meaning to give you for a while now.." Giving [Name] the box, he murmured in a low voice. [Name] stared at the box in awe, wondering what the James Lee could have possibly bought him.

All that was inside the box when [Name] slowly started to open it was a silver ring, but it wasn't just any ring-it matched the one James was wearing.

[Name] became completely speechless at the gift James had given him as he felt his cheeks begin to warm.

"I..don't know what to say." [Name] spoke while looking up at James, a soft smile gracing his lips as he took the ring out of the box, slipping it on [Name]'s ring finger and tightly clasping the [h/c] hand into his own.

"I know it's probably early for me to ask you this..but, would you do me the honors of being mine?"

The two exchanged no further words as the pink-haired man anxiously awaited the [h/c] response, who was now a blushing mess.

"Uhm..I.." [Name] stumbled on his words, [e/c] eyes staring into James black ones, he seemed nervous about [Name]'s response.

"I..I would love to, James.." [Name] mumbled, his heart beating rapidly as James exhaled a sigh of relief, cupping [Name]'s cheek and asked him subtly if he could kiss him. James received a slow nod in response.

Soon enough, James, relieved to finally have the [h/c] to himself, took [Name]'s lips into his own.

"Merry Christmas, [Name]."

AN: I know, I know, I'm like a day late since Christmas passed, but I still wanted to write something.

TREAT ME LIKE A SLUT! 🎀

Pairing: lookism men x f! Reader 💗

Warning: sexual theme and make out sesh 💋

Summary: Lookism men react to the song: treat me like a slut when you play your playlist. 👀

GUN PARK 🚬

Putting on the song wasn’t such a 100% good idea around this man, whenever this song played during your playlist he’d grip the steering wheel.

Occasionally looking at your figure while Bobbing your head to the music, he knew the playlist had weird tastes but this song? It worked wonders on him.

“Gun, we can’t not in the car what if someone sees us..-“ your protests are useless against the male now setting you on his lap while his seat is lowered.

“Then let them see, didn’t you want to be treated like a slut?”

You sense mocking by his voice and roll your eyes. This doesn’t go unoticed as he quickly rips off your clothing. Leaving you naked and shivering due to the cold inside the car. You try and cover your breasts but he just grips your wrists pinning them on your stomach licking a stripe up your neck.

“I’ll treat you like a slut alright, just you wait little whore.”

Safe to say the car kept shaking , and bypassers would be either confused or know what was going on.

JAMES LEE/DIEGO 💿

While James was busy writing whatever songs and what not, you often pass by singing your songs during cleaning, when you picked up a habit of singing that one song that riled him up.

just one little : “treat me like a slut.” And he’ll turn around raising an eyebrow at you , though you were to busy doing your own stuff. He couldn’t hold back anymore and just wanted to obey your requests like a good boyfriend <3

“Oh, fuck! James..I’m..mhhmph!-“ your voice cracking and the rough slaps of James’s thighs against the back of yours. Arms stretched behind your back and ass smacking against his hips he grunts above you.

“I thought you wanted to be treated like this? What’s the matter baby? To much? , that’s to bad.”

He continues rutting deep inside of you making your head spin and stand on your toes to match his height despite his harsh thrusting you fall over on the desk and he keeps pushing you further. Your stomach now red due to how fast he was going causing friction.

“Do you like being treated like a slut? Adorable.”

JAKE KIM 📼

Usually when jake’s working on papers to keep big deal a crew, you’d be on his bed listening to music and falling asleep. He’ll tuck you in and kiss your forehead before continuing his work.

But when he heard your loud music he just wanted to listen for a few seconds, since working with music made him concentrated. Though when his ears make contact with the music his eyes widen. Looking down at your sleeping form he had a wild idea smiling before executing it and you.

You didn’t know how this happened all you knew is that the Jake Kim from big deal was currently between your thighs. Your legs dangling on his shoulders and his rough arms gripping you.

He bear hugs you for a few seconds , swallowing your whole smaller figure in his broad shoulders and muscular one.

“Jake? What, why a-re you..?” reaching hands to his black locks you tangle into his hair massaging his scalp.

“You have a very funny taste in music my love, treat me like a slut? who woulda’ know.?” he finally looks at you, his hands next to your head making you flustered and hide your face.

“Ah ah, none of that, behave like a slut and I’ll fuck you rough like one.” He says pulling your hands from your face pinning them above your head kissing your neck while slowly moving again causing you to whimper and clutch onto the sheets below you.

“God, what a pervert.”

Yes I’m back again, back with the smuts and fanfics, I’ll be taking any requests except gun x goo or male x male so just go wild

[gojosatorailme]

One-Sided Love <3

- gun, Samuel, dg/James Lee, goo(?), LOGAN, vin Jin, Eli(?), hudson, johan

He never thought that this would happen. The way his heart races, the way his face begins to feel warm, he feels like he’s going crazy dammit! Why’re you so cute? He’d even start to fidget around you! That’s something he never does!!

How come? Why is it you? He’s ask repeatedly, it was mind boggling to say the least. You were such an Angel, you were so kind and gentle… in his eyes you were such an ethereal being. Someone like you shouldn’t be around him. But why does he get so sad whenever you’re not around? Why does he miss your touch?

He’s too aggressive, he’s wild and crazy, someone unfit for you. But you always smile at him. That warm smile, oh how your so warm. He wishes he can see that smile every second, he wishes you were his. He wants to embrace you, to hold you. But there’s a wall that separates you two, you’re out of reach no matter how far he runs and no matter how much he extends his hand, you’d never grab it.

You were kind to everyone, not just him. He’s not special, he never was. You treated him like everyone else and his heart reacting to that wasn’t your fault. He wants to blame you. He wants to blame you for making him feel this way, he can’t even focus on fighting!! He even lays in bed thinking of you with a lovesick sigh!! Have you ever seen such a violent man giggle In bed with a stupid smile!?! He’s kicking his feet and flailing around! This is your effect! He wants to blame you he really does. But he can’t. Ever time, you’d just smile.

He wants you. He wants to show you the effect you have on him. But whenever he sees you.. only two words escape his lips.

“Yo mama.”

[fan-of-chaos]

All this man knows is to be mysterious, eat hot chips and lie.

[chaostroberry1]

Who's better gun or james?

And why it's the goat,the legendary,the peak,my husband james?

I'm supposed to be writing rn but then I stumbled across this question. So, I will answer it. 😞 I just need to.

James. No other explanation. Tis James. I don't care anymore guys, I'm a dick rider for him.

Yes, gun has UI and a lot of experience and can PROBABLY beat James' ass negative diff...

but don't compare my man James w that zesty mf who get turned on bc of high schoolers being 'strong' and beating his ass. (Ehem Daniel park)

James is the literal goat I stand by it guys, even though I'm still in denial about him being Charles choi's. Mans is literally the embodiment of perfection. I don't want him to be that musty crusty old man that look like he from KFC.

No hate to the gun glazers/lovers. I swear I still love y'all. dont give me that ass beating😭

[pinkbubblebro]

[zra4llaicx]

"Why would DG kill Gapryong?" - The DG did a lot in the past as James Lee, and probably before he resurfaced as the DG, he did everything to stop deleting the 'James Lee' since during his fight against the old man, his school was shown behind the DG picking up fire, but as we saw, the DG school remained intact, due to the fact that they put out the fire, and after that, maybe the school was abandoned, so that Choi could buy it soon after.

Little by little, Choi helped DG to hide his past like James Lee and etc. And probably Gapryong ended up somehow, finding out, the misfortunes that DG did (like literally ripping off body parts from the other generation 1 members). And probably the DG killed him because he found out and Choi covered for him, helping the DG.
