MEGUMI FUSHIGURO ˙✧˖°📷 ⋆。˚꩜
headcanons ⸝⸝ hey everyone! ive been on a writing streak as of recent, so i love to give more headcanons and ideas about dating megumi! ofc, this is from a fem perspective.
safe for work headcanons
+ megumi literally did not think much of you when you first met. it was only seeing how you interact with others that he started to get you more.
+ whenever he sees you typing in the group chat, he always makes sure he answers (of course, only to make sure youre heard, much to itadori and kagisakis interest)
+ probably won't call you, but texting is decently fun with him. for someone decently calm and quiet, hes curious about how you work, ect.
+ he enjoys sharing his earbuds with you, and you lend him a few songs to listen too (you seem to get his style, although he likes a much of different things, and he saves them to his playlists)
+ doesnt mind staying back to help you train or study, and honestly you two end up talking about the jujustu world and everyone in general
+ he doesn't seem like he cares about gossip, but the moment you start talking about it he is going to pay attention
+ you two always swap what you don't like on food
+ brushing his hair with your fingers will make him fall asleep.
+ you two always somehow crowd around each other when others are training or at parties or events
+ he does not suck at communicating, he just does it in his own way. maybe in notes or through text, he is very sensitive in reality
+ would absolutely ignore his friends if you two had a date or even just taking a walk. if someone has his attention, he will give all of it
+ he loves to print out the pictures he takes of you on his recyclable camera and keep them in a little drawer in his desk
+ seems to talk about you less the more you start seeing each other/not into pda whatsoever. he doesn't want other people (especially HIS people) in your business. at the most though, he will always offer acts of service in return (buying you snacks, matching bracelets or necklaces, holding your backpack.)
+ he probably isn't a huge fan of pet names, he will never get over how embarrassing they make him feel, at the very best, meg is fine (the other half is reserved for gojo.. for whatever reason.)
+ he loves to have cuddle dates- don't have time worry about going places, just his warm bed, and both of you sleeping while he holds you.
+ your laughter may be a weak spot for him, and produces a smile every single time (even infront of other people, which they always notice.)
below this, are not safe for work headcanons. // mdni.
not safe for work headcanons
~ megumi is.. a stupid guy when it comes to fucking you.
~ hates public attention? will litter your body with purple hickeys.
~ doesn't like pda? will push you against a wall in a secluded place and eat you out from the back as your forehead meets the cement wall
~ he doesn't think too much about it, unless he thinks he is hurting you, then his penis brain turns off
~ its slightly embarrassing for him at first, but he likes to fondle you as he kisses your neck from behind. when he first heard your whimpering, that embarrassment flew out the window
~ while practically growling in your ear about how pretty you are and how wet you are down there
~ long fingers are always put to good use.. always.
~ his favorite thing to do is eating you out. he loves watching you squirm and plead as he makes circles around your clit with his thumb.
~ and his favorite position is hitting it from the back while holding you, so he can whisper and pant into your ear while you take all of him, and also to hear you huff into the pillow.
~ his weakest spot is hearing you moan and whine through his hand that wraps around your mouth every time you get loud.
~ pulling on his hair makes him whine.. or makes him go harder.
~ dirty talk, once his brain shuts off
~ "fuck, i want to see you cum. youre not leaving here until i see it."
~ always does the dirty in his room, because he doesn't want to make a mess in yours- he cares about whats in his room, but not enough to avoid breaking it on accident when he fucks you against it.
~ always after is the biggest gulit-session
~ "was i too mean? did i hurt you? god why am i so stupid?" yeah stupid in love with you.
thank you for your asks and whatnot! i will definitely write more inumaki headcanons when i get the chance next!
please, send more, i absolutely love talking to yall!
bye pookies!

Birthday Special(JJK Oneshot)
TW/Warnings: Domesticity, AFAB/Female Reader, Family life, Slight self-coded Fem!Reader
Pairing: Toji Fushiguro x Fem!Reader
Pronouns: She/Her, Mom/Mama (Though no physical description, reader had some self-coded elements)
Word count: 1.5k words
Decided to write something because today is my birthday(May 3rd)! And I'm officially 21! Thank you all for you love and support for the past 7 months of me writing for JJK! Also, this is the Valentine's day I referred to.
“Papa, you’re thinking too hard about this. You know Mama doesn’t ask for much.”
“Yeah, Dad. It shouldn’t be hard to get mom a present. Remember that full-size green tea hand and body lotion you got her? She was way too happy about it and was on the verge of crying happy tears.”
Toji sighs as his kids are behind him trying to ease his stress. Once again, like Valentine’s day, he was struggling to get a present for you. But this time, the stakes are higher because today is your birthday. Not some holiday Toji remembers because it’s one of the many times of the year capitalism does a complete take over for the sake of consumerism, which he can never avoid every time he goes out.
Though his kids have a point, he always wanted to do or get something for you. While you do the occasional mall shopping, it wasn’t often. Maybe once a month if lucky. This always posses a problem for the three because you were the best gifter in the family. Knowing what to give to anyone but only hinting at minute items. Thus having to think outside of the box or really watch your eyes latch onto anything longer than seven seconds.
Megumi and Tsumiki don’t blame Toji for struggling since your demands weren’t demands but rather promises. You have been nothing but good to Toji for almost two decades. Something Toji knows many people take something like that for granted. Unfortunately, becomes terrifying to know how easily many fall under a dark spell. And Toji fears himself on certain days for not giving what you deserved.
“I know, Megumi. But your mother deserves nice things for herself. She still wears the necklace I gave her when you two were young. That’s almost ten years. Now, you both do some scooping while watching the time. We have to get the cake at 3:45pm.”
The siblings looked at each other before shaking their heads in helping their father’s hunt for a perfect present. They looked around the vast sea of stores to give themselves for any ideas. They were overthinking this whole process because every idea was shot down at the reality that you did have everything you ever wanted.
You have everything you ever wanted is what you always said to them.
Perhaps there’s something else they can give you that reminds of that. The lightbulb above Tsumiki’s head went off as she asked Toji the jewelry store he got the necklace from. He becomes curious as she scans the windows for something until stopping and pointing. Toji and Megumi look over to a display of multiple charm bracelets.
“If Mama has the necklace with us in it, why can’t she get a matching bracelet to go along with it? She doesn’t have one that does.”
Now, Toji and Megumi were seeing Tsumiki’s vision.
“Good eye, kiddo. Shame on me for not thinking about that sooner.”
Toji lets Tsumiki handle the bracelet creation, occasionally having him and Megumi to be on the same page. Once finalized, Toji goes to fish his wallet for his card to give to Tsumiki to pay. After printing the receipt, the lady gives the card back but it ends up dropping onto the marble counter. Megumi cringes at the metallic clanging it made so he grabs it for Tsumiki to give back to his dad. Everyone in the store glances over at them as Toji puts the card away. Megumi raises a brow at his father because Toji had a smirk plastered on his lips.
“Why are you smirking?”
Toji pockets his hands as he looks at him.
“Don’t worry about it, Megs. Just know there aren't a lot of people with metal credit cards. Anyway, we gotta get movin’ because we need to pick up your Mama’s birthday cake and food for dinner.”
Tsumiki joins them as they head off to finish birthday shopping. Once getting home, they set up everything for you to come home to. By the time you come home, they’re done. Making your presence known, you relax into your humble abode. You walked yourself into the kitchen to see what your family has set up for you.
“Happy Birthday, Mom!”
You're greeted by a hug from each of your kids. Chuckling at the surprise they always seem to do when the day is about you. You hold them close and kiss their foreheads as their hugs re-energize you. Once parting, they made way for their father as your husband stands over you. Holding that dumb grin that you fell in love with over these years.
“Happy Birthday, Doll~.”
Giving a forehead kiss of his own, he holds you ever so softly but with the affectionate firmness. You giggled at how Toji is when it comes to physical touch. He can’t seem to get enough of it. Before eating dinner, you wanted to blow out the candles so they could eat the cake afterwards. The kids say their part and end with “We love you, Mom. Always.” Toji cracks a joke that always makes Megumi roll his eyes before getting into his own sentimental speech.
“Thank you for spending almost 20 years of your life with me. Happy Birthday, (Y/N).”
Ugh, and that softness he had at the end. Made you want to kiss him with all the love and warmth. You thought it’s time to eat dinner when Toji pulls out a small pink bag and places it in front of you. Surprised, you looked around at your family.
“What’s this, guys?”
“It’s for you, Mama. From us.”
Though curious, you smiled as you looked into the bag and pulled out a small box. Upon opening it, you couldn’t stop the smile that took over. There, in the box, was a silver charm snake chain bracelet with a small (F/C) gem at the center of a beautiful silver heart charm. But that’s not make you smile. It came from when your eyes landed on the other three charms attached to the bracelet. Two of those were dangling charms, one of an elegant flower and the other of a small silver puppy. The other charm was a clip-on with the colors of dark blue and black. You recognized them to represent the three that ultimately fulfilled the word “family” for you.
The flower is Tsumiki as it was her favorite color, the puppy was obviously Megumi, and the last one is Toji for sure. Your smile began to painfully pull at your lips because you realized Toji’s charm closely resembles his wedding ring. Clasping the bracelet on your wrist, you admired how it looked on you.
“It was the kids’ idea to do this. I just paid for it, Hon.”
You knew Toji’s lying but didn't have it in you to call him out. This gift was just too perfect. You go over to give your motherly affection to thank Megumi and Tsumiki, your two children that gave meaning to your motherhood. Once having enough, you go over to Toji. The man you undoubtedly cherish and completely devote yourself to, your husband and your other half. You hug Toji lovingly, taking in his warmth and presence. Nothing in this world brings you comfort and ease than the man you choose to love never made you regret giving your heart and soul to.
Toji just chuckles with his signature grin, returning the hug with the same amount of affection. Yet your children can see the adoration and tenderness in his eyes, knowing full well he never looked at anyone that way because you’re the only one to bring it out of him. Looking up at your Toji, your gaze softens but your smile still holds its homeyness. He stares down at you before he leans in for a kiss you gladly accept. Even Megumi smiles with his sister while watching their parents express their love for one another, seeing them pull away from the kiss.
“They’re truly your kids since they always knew how to give me gifts. It goes with my necklace now. Thank you for this.” Saying as you smile up at him.
“Ah~, they knew because they have good eyes. Just like their mama. Happy Birthday, (Y/N). Thank you for your love…and thank you for being you.”
The absolute tender affirmation was unlike any other. Though your birthday was a reminder of how many years you’ve been on here, it also serves as a reminder of your milestones over the years. Looking at your life, you got the best out of it. A family of your own and the love from someone who’s been with you through it all. As you tell Megumi and Tsumiki to go ahead and eat, you lock eyes with Toji. Both filled with a love no one can feel except the two of you. Toji hugs you close from behind as you interlace your hands into his, feeling your bracelet pressed up against him. Gazing upon Megumi and Tsumiki, both of your creations born out of each other’s unmatched love for one another.
This will be added into one of your many best birthdays you had.

birthday girl
a/n : lil oneshot of megumi being the sweetest sweetie, also ik megumis birthday was a few days ago but wtv 😭
synopsis : everything’s okay, because your world didn’t end at 19 at your birthday party.
contents : Megumi and reader are bffs :( , megumi being the best, both are hardcore crushing on eachother, fluff, cringe?, 481 words, no use of y/n!
Fushiguro Megumi x F! Reader
“It’s so stupid."
You mumbled under your breath.
It was your 19th birthday party, and here you were. Sat alone on the steps leading up to your house. Previous tear marks stained your face as you watched the still sky.
It was dark now, and the climax of the party was just arriving.
However, you couldn’t bring yourself to walk back in. All day, no one had even said happy birthday. Yet, everyone had come over to have a party for your birthday.
In the dark, a car pulled up to your driveway.
The familiar black BMW parked smoothly, its lights catching your eye.
As the door opened, a smile grazed your face.
Silently, you made eye contact. The feeling was humbling - your best friend (and crush) of 10 years seeing you pathetically alone at your own party.
“Hey Megs.” You smiled the best you could as he took a seat next to you, placing his gift aside.
“Hey.”
…
“so-“
“Why are you out here?” He questioned, looking at the constellations of stars. You turned to him, his eyes reflecting the elegance of the sky.
“I..” You swallowed your words, taking interest in the solid colour of your shoes.
His gentle gaze switched over to you. “I don’t even know Megs.” You whispered, leaning your head on his shoulder.
“I thought I would have fun, because, well, not to be obnoxious, but it’s my birthday!” You sniffed, “And everyone’s been treating me like crap, and-"
A small velvet box was placed in front of you.
“And no one had gotten you a present or said happy birthday?” He asked, you could hear the amusement in his voice.
“And no one had gotten me a present or said happy birthday..” You muttered, confused, raising your head off his shoulder.
"How- how did you..?”
He shrugged, a small grin teasing his pink lips.
“happy birthday.”
You breathed out a relieved laugh, slowly untying the blue satin ribbon around the box.
A giddy smile laced over your lips, looking over to Megumi for reassurance before opening it.
“Go ahead, it’s your birthday.” He chuckled, subtly excited for your reaction.
Slowly, you lifted the box open.
“Megumi..” You smiled, holding up the necklace in the moonlight. “Didn’t I say I want my future boyfriend to buy me this?” You flustered, playfully glaring at Megumi.
His grin softens. “sorry.”
You faked a huff of annoyance as you examined the necklace that has never failed to capture your attention.
“Can you?” You held the necklace in front of Megumi, pulling your hair apart and allowing Megumi tie the clasp.
“I love it.” You beamed.
He smiled contentedly as you gushed over the twinkle of the gem in the middle.
“Wanna get out of here?”
You scoffed jokingly, “And where to? The ice cream parlor down the street?”
“If that’s what you want.” He stood up, extending a hand for you to take. Gratefully, you took his hand.
“Can we?” You whispered.
Smiling, he whispered back.
“Of course."

Since I have been feeling a particularly strong attachment to my comfort item lately here are what I think PJO character's comfort items would be (short answers in bold text for those who want a quick read):
Percy: a blue stuffie from his childhood. He doesn't often have it with him but he always feels safer when he is with it. And yes, he probably calls the stuffie "he" because I said so
Grover: a little mushroom pendant from Juniper. He never puts it on anything, just keeps it in his pocket and takes it out to fidget with when he's stressed. It has a really smooth surface and pretty colours so it's a good sensory thing for him.
Annabeth: her camp necklace. She always has it and when she doesn't she feels bare. Every time she's stressed she looks at a bead and thinks of a good memory from that year.
Thalia: a shirt she particularly favours because she wore it a lot when on the run with Luke and Annabeth. Any time she's in a bad mood she wears it and it makes her feel a bit better.
Nico: canonically, it's his skull ring, but I also feel like he'd have a childhood blanket that he's really attached to. It's a really soft fabric and so he always uses it when he's feeling overstimulated or understimulated cause it works for both
Rachel: a scrunchie with a fall leaf pattern on it from Percy. It was the first birthday present he gave her. It was all he could find and afford to get her that he thought she might like and he was scared she'd be underwhelmed but she really appreciated that he went through the effort and now she always has it on her.
Leo: a rock he found on a beach field trip with Piper back at the Wilderness school. It's pink and translucent, so when he holds it up to the sun it lights up a bit. It reminds him that he's cared about and loved when he has an existential crisis about being the 7th wheel.
Piper: a rock matching Leo's, found on the same trip. It's grey and smooth with streaks of white and green. It was a big source of comfort for her when mourning Jason, and she was able to remind herself that there was someone out there who shared her pain.
Jason: a silver bracelet Thalia gave him with a lightning bolt charm. It's the only jewelry he wears and he always has it with him, even when he dies.
Hazel: a small keychain from Frank. It's a little bear holding a plastic gemstone heart. She always brings it with her on quests and outings, making sure never to lose it.
Frank: a purple and gold friendship bracelet Hazel made him when he became praetor. He always treasured it because it made him feel like he'd made someone proud, despite the fact he'd already made so many people proud.
Reyna: her praetor's cloak. She didn't think she'd form an attachment to it, but she really liked the fabric and it made her feel important and safe. After she gave it up, Thalia noticed her seeming sad without it and got her a new one, but silver and gold embroidered with the symbol of Bellona.
Will: a pressed flower from Nico. Nico started picking flowers to press when he was unhappy as a way to learn how to keep his powers under control when his emotions are strong. He gave Will the first one and Will was so honoured he decided to carry it everywhere with him.
Apollo/Lester: a new ukulele Will got him after he lost his old one. Like Percy, he doesn't usually have it, but playing it always calms him down and reminds him of the people he loves.
Meg: a chip of a terracotta pot from her childhood home (I forget what it's called). She found it before she and her dad left and decided to keep it as a keepsake.
Lavinia: her star of David pendant, canonically, but I'd imagine she also has a music box with a little ballerina that reminds her of childhood and makes her feel safe.
Feel free to add on with any characters I missed :)

*floats lower so you can easily reach my ears and is careful to keep them very still for you, despite the urge to flick them*
*grins fondly at your concentration face, charmed by how hard you’re trying and how determined you obviously are to do it right*
*secretly uses magic to subtly help guide your fingers so you won’t accidentally drop anything - I don’t want you to be anxious and you panicking over dropping something would be counterproductive to that*
Hmmm~! Thank you Darlin~! I’m sure I do because you picked them out for me~!
*hugs you again, purring and grinning happily*
*Wanders on in with a present in my hands. I hold it at my side as I clear my throat a little*.
"A- hem!"..
"Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday dear Che'nyaaaa~
Happy Birthday to you!"
*I pass him the present after finishing my little diddy*.
*Inside the package are three separate accessories. Fluffy glove-like cuffs, a cheshire cat chachki necklace, and a little pair of kitty shaped hearings with hearts formed in them*.
"I hope you like these. I thought the earrings reminded me a bit of both of us"
"Happy Birthday my cheshire~" ♡♡♡
*lays in the air next to you, kicking my legs back and forth and smiling happily as you sing*
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! 😻😻😻
THANK MEWWWWW!!!!!!!!! *uses magic to make the present float in the air so my hands are free to give you a big hug*
I love them~! 💜😸
*slips the necklace on easily, my ears flicking, before grabbing the cuffs and earrings*
I think I’ll save the cuffs for very special occasions… like weddings and baby showers! *giggles and the cuffs disappear to… somewhere*
But I’d like to wear the earrings now! Can you put them in, Darlin? I believe we’ve discussed that I can make my own piercings.
There is now one towards the top of my left ear, above the highest sign post, and one down below the up speech bubble in my right ear~!
*laughs and mist-like arrows appear in the air around my head to point you in the right directions*
😸😸😸
#did you notice that the golden color of the necklace is the same shade as your other earrings?#i thought that was purrfect haha#<- you’re so thoughtful! 🥺💜#I love my gifts 💜#also funfact i dont have pierced ears#<- well you did great Darlin <3#10/10 would ask for your help again <3#che��nya chats#twst rp#che’nya rp#a mad birthday#darlin megs 💖

Okay because i put my thoughts in the tags the first time heres some of my spn au thoughts
Also disclaimer i am changing the supernatural story so dont get mad at me for not including things or changing things you like this is my house and i write the au <3
Characters: Dean -> Mav, Cas -> Ice, Sam -> Slider, John Winchester-> Duke Mitchell, Mary Winchester -> Slider’s mom (her name is also Mary in my Slider lore so), Bobby -> Viper, Ash -> Goose, Ellen -> Carole, Jo -> Bradley (he’s like a teen in this but don’t worry theres no Jo and Dean content 🤮 thats his godson)
-slider and mav aren’t actually related, they were both 6 (mav older by a few months) when their parents got married, duke was a widower and mary was never married
-Getting this out of the way although i love the chevy impala i am a truck freak so mav drives his dads black 1990 toyota sr5 with an extended cab
Backstory: -viper and duke were both navy pilots now “hunting buddies”, they took mav and slider out hunting occasionally but whenever they went on long “hunting trips” they left slider and mav at home, that’s because these hunting trips were monster hunting trips
-the same thing that happens to sam and deans mom happens to mav and sliders mom but when they’re both around the age of 10, since they’re older and not stupid they have a lot of questions that duke can’t just bullshit answers to so he tells them about monsters and what he thinks took their mom (because he doesn’t actually know at this point)
-since they no longer have a house they stay at vipers or go on the road with duke
-once they both start high school slider wants to stop hunting and stay with viper to focus on school, his relationship with duke gets weird after that because duke wants him to keep hunting to find what killed his mom but slider wants to do well in school to make his mom proud, they come to an agreement where slider stays with viper but once a month he has to come hunting
-slider leaves for university (idk what hes studying), mav graduates but stays with duke, he starts hunting on his own
Now time: -This au starts in 2005 like the show
-duke picks up a lead on the thing that killed mary but is super vague about it when telling viper and doesn’t tell mav anything, he says he’ll be gone for a week but a week and a half later theres no word from him, viper refuses to go after him because “he’s gonna get himself killed” and “ive been telling him to let it go for years” but mav still has to go look for him
-mav finds slider and this basically carries out exactly how it does in the show, he agrees to help for one day, when he gets back his gf is dead, agrees to ditch school 😎 to come help look for duke
story wise thats all i've got so far, i want ice to come into the story a lot sooner than cas does in the show and i dont remember when ash, ellen and jo come in but i want them to come in sooner too. hopefully ill actually work on this more but i hope you guys enjoy
Character descriptions:
Mav: -has the classic dean necklace given to him by slider
-dresses basically the same as 86 movie mav but with flannel 😎
-does wear his cowboy boots but he’s normally wearing work boots
-eyebrow scar eyebrow scar eyebrow scar!!!
Slider: -wears his mother’s wedding ring on a necklace, duke gave it to him after she died
-dresses like early season sam, carhartt jacket, hoodies, tshirts and baggy jeans
-silver eyebrow piercing 😎
Ice: -exactly the same as cas but with a dark grey trench coat
-his eyes always glow a little, not enough that its noticeable unless its in the dark
-has a grey hoodie and black jeans for when he needs to look a little less “formal”
Goose: -has a mullet its a key part of ash’s character so
-just think mater from cars personified mixed with goose idk
Carole: -dresses exactly like ellen
-her classic curly meg ryan hair stays tho
bradley: -just a mini goose
Duke and Viper: -they look pretty much the same, just some dad with a mustache and flannel
-only difference is duke always wears his wedding ring

I still have so many of your fics to comment on so please bear with me. You even introduced a whole new character since I last appeared here. I'm sorry for my comments being so sporadic, but I need to tell you that I love Max already. He is so prickly but an absolute baby when it comes to his tummy. (((Maaaaaybe you could get one of Wendy and Bella's friends, Meg or Babs to rub it for him one day, down the line? 👀)))
First the stomach bug from hell and him having no one to pick him up & care for him 🥺
Also, poor thing threw up in front of his class. I can relate to that humiliating experience (not from a teacher's POV though, but still). Not a fun experience, 0/10, would not recommend.
I also loved Vince taking care of him despite thinking he is hangover and figuring out Max is his old bully. Such a sweet guy. Then him having to suffer through Wendy's birthday party right after catching Max's bug. Also, the necklace he got for Wen is so pretty. Good taste, Vin.
And the bus trip after everything?? God, Soup, you killed me with Max being like 'yeah my gut doing this to me is normal' then suddenly going 'actually no, my tummy hurts, please do something'. Then Vin squeezing his knee and jumping in to help by singing with the kids. So adorable. Loved the little interactions with the individual kids, too. It gave me an idea but I'm gonna send that in a separate ask because it could sorta kinda become a fic request (?) You will see soon.
- 💜
💜 !!! Darling, bear with you?? I'm thriving!
I'm sooo happy you like Max! And for your suggestion about Babs and Meg, I'll think of that... 👀 Truth be told, Meg is more of a tertiary character (only mentioned in passing), while Barbie has a little more personality, but I mostly have her as a secondary character to Wendy, Bella, Jon.
I actually have a gigantic portfolio of secondary and tertiary characters that are specific for certain OCs (for example Sandra, Chuck and Dean, Leo's coworkers), I think I need to introduce some of them that only live in my head and not the paper!
I'm so sorry you can relate to throwing up in class, that's mortifying. Big hug 🫂🫂
Vince's taste is so girly and romantic, he's very lucky his girlfriend happens to like those things. I need to write something where he gets Bell a gift and Bella is like... my man. What is this? 😂😂
And about your other ask, with the request, HELL YEAH. On the drafts right now. I keep having this mental image of Vince and Liv with cat face paint on, so we're rolling with that.

Favorites Meme!
Thanks for thinking of me @deemoyza! I love this kind of thing.
Favorite painter: I say I love this kind of thing and then I don't pick a favorite. When it comes to figure-based art, I love the well-known classics, Alphonse Mucha (just lush and gorgeous), John William Waterhouse (softly cluttered, often a little unsettled) and Philip de Laszlo (fiery and opalescent). If we're talking animal art, I love the equine illustrations of Wesley Dennis (powerful nostalgia), all the shaggy warm creatures of Rosa Bonheur, and Theophile Steinlen's endless snoozing cats. And then with landscapes, there's John Brett (airy pure blues), Frederic Edwin Church (ethereal), and Mikalojus Konstantinas Ciurlionis (otherworldly, surreal).
Favorite poet/writer: That's even harder. Let's focus on just poets because it's narrower. I once heard Emily Dickinson described as terrifying in her spare use of language, and that's always resonated with me -- and it's something I've tried to angle towards in some of my own poetry.
Favorite band: Am realizing I don't connect as much with bands as with solo artists, so while there are lots of individual songs by bands that I like, I don't have a big pool to draw from. I've always liked the Something Real album by Meg & Dia -- very mid-2000s rock with a lot of cluttered lyrics. But I don't know enough about them overall to really say I'm a fan of them.
Favorite meal & drink: My family's macaroni and cheese recipe, which is kind of weird and atypical (it has cheese, but not an actual cheese sauce) but so cheddary and hearty and good. When I was learning to cook, mastering the macaroni and cheese was a big milestone. And then for drinks, a really good hot chocolate. One of our local restaurants has an amazing one with an enormous homemade marshmallow. For stuff in a packet, I love Starbuck's salted caramel version.
Favorite outfit aesthetic/style: I would maybe call it low-key romantic? I wear a lot of skirts, and I typically always put on jewelry when I go out. I like dark colors (though I've been branching into brighter colors and pastels), some light goth and medievaly elements. I like airy flowy lines, but I also want structure and shape. Am a huge fan of boots with skirts. Current favorite outfit is a dark floral corduroy mini over black leggings, black tee, and a long open-knit burgundy sweater. And of course boots. Adding a cameo necklace or pin gives it a little bit of Victoriana.
Favorite singer: Right now, it's a lot of Tori Amos. She has so many good stand-out lines, beautiful melodies, and also just so much music I still haven't even listened to, even after being a fan for well over ten years. Recently discovered her song "The Maids of Elfen-Mere" and may have to check out the album.
Favorite item you own: Hard to pick one. The year I finished writing The Price and Prey of Magic, someone, without knowing what was in the book, got me a pendant with stag antlers for Christmas. Stags are a big motif in the novel, and it felt like such a lovely, special coincidence. The person has since died, and so wearing the necklace is extra meaningful to me now; I wore it for my first book signing.
Favorite perfume: I don't wear perfume regularly. But my favorite scents are fairly straightforward -- vanilla, orange, rosemary and mint -- pretty simple stuff.
Thank you again! As for tagging, if you see this and would like to do it, go for it!

can I ask u some questions? starting with: what is your favorite of Luke's necklaces? for him to wear and also for you to wear/steal (if you're a necklace person) so those can be different answers
ohhhh wow seeing as i am fond of pretty much everything related to luke's neck, it's hard to pick a favorite, but i have a few top contenders:
ok so the two on the left i love a lot. the beaded one is so pretty on him, and the longer one with the safety pin is aesthetically my favorite just as a necklace minus being on luke’s neck. it’s also really nice when he shortens it up into a choker. that’s the one i’d steal for myself. 😌 and the long chain…needs no explanation i don’t think. you can see him.
but then there are a couple of dark horses i enjoy a lot:
the black choker chain just really does it for me. and this interesting half beaded/half black choker sticks out to me as a favorite too, but i couldn’t really pinpoint why until meg pointed out it’s what he wears in the baby blue visualizer which…like…the association with everything happening in that mv is more than enough to justify that necklace making the list. 😃
#i know it’s probably blasphemous to leave out the baby angel#i just feel like it gets acknowledged a lot already so u know#letting the others shine#i also love when he layers especially if it’s just like…2 or 3 chokers#weeeeeeee#also whew fashion week luke 🥴#ask#anon#too much neck content

Those rom-com references in 3x08. Hmm.
Michelle's favorite movie, French Kiss (1995)
Kate plans to confront her straying fiancé who stays in France. On her way she meets Luc, a thief, who hides a stolen necklace in her bag. Her life changes when she falls in love with Luc.
Kate's fiancé gets cold feet about marriage and falls in love with another woman in Paris. Kate initially hates Luc, her mustachioed seat partner on the plane to Paris. Together, they concoct a scheme to help Kate win back her ex, and get Luc out of trouble in the process, but she eventually realizes that she no longer loves him. She's actually fallen in love with Luc. There's a classic rush-to-the-airport moment and a love confession when Luc finds out about everything Kate has done for him. He tells her he wants her to stay with him, and they kiss. Happily ever after.
(Also a Meg Ryan movie!)
A couple of quotes:
"I had this feeling about him, same for him. It wasn't exactly a thunderclap, or a lightning-bolt, it was more like a --" "Light drizzle?"
"Why are you chasing after him after what he's done to you?" "Because I love him. And I'm afraid that if he doesn't come back that I'll -- it'll hurt so much that I'll just shrivel up and I'll never be able to love anyone ever again." "You say that now, but -- after a time, you would forget. First, you would forget his chin, and then his nose, and after a while, you would struggle to remember the exact color of his eyes, and one day you wake up and, pfft, he's gone: his voice, his smell, his face. He will have left you. And then you can begin again."
"And I am thinking, you should not be flying anywhere." "I shouldn't?" "No, in fact, I am sure of it. I am thinking, I want you." "You want me?" "That's all. I want you."
The episode ends with a French version of the song 'Come Softly To Me' which was used in the 1988 film Crossing Delancey.
Isabelle "Izzy" Grossman spends her time going from her tiny, solitary West Side apartment to that of her grandmother on the Lower East Side. In between, Izzy builds a glowing reputation at the swank bookstore where she works. While her grandmother plots to find her a romantic match, Izzy is courted by a married, worldly author, Anton, yet can't seem to shake the down-to-earth appeal of Sam, a pickle vendor.
Izzy is initally dismissive of Sam and cold towards him, but she eventually warms to him and - you guessed it! - falls in love with him. When Izzy thinks she's messed things up between them and Sam disappears, but thanks to intervention from her scheming Bubbe, she stops Sam from leaving and they reconcile.
He had his eye on her for a very long time, but she never saw him.
Much to think about.

So since your a fashion girlie have you even seen something that you wish Meghan would wear? Bulova has this watch called the American girl watch that I need to see on Meg like she's theee American girl and it fits her aesthetic. I also wanna see her in sapphires. A sapphire tennis bracelet or smth.
Hey! :) That watch is totally something Meg would love, it's right up her style alley. I honestly am not too familiar with the trove of potential accessories out there in the world that she could possibly wear, but blue is my absolute favorite color on her, so I'm with you on the sapphires!
Diana had a bunch of sapphire jewelry besides her famous ring, but even though not all of it (as far as I'm aware) has yet appeared on Kate in public, I'd sadly assume she probably inherited the whole set. But just for completely delusional fantasy purposes, gawd could you imagine Meg in the Saudi Suite necklace 🤤 (The other one, which is a similar piece set in a pearl choker, is I think more famous, but is also WAY gaudier and something I presume our minimalist girl wouldn't be caught dead in haha. The Saudi one is much sleeker and more balanced for her.)
But I don't have much else specific in mind! I think in general I'd like to see her try more color, but she really does love her simple gold bands 😅
#if we're talking about clothes tho i'm definitely always mentally filing away pieces that I see for my meg wish list#didn't i say i was gonna do a tag for that exact kind of thing? i should do that

what would everyone look like if they where from Pandora? o: {it popped into my head and i thought it might be interesting}
You were probably hoping for their dragon counterparts modified to look like Pandora predators…but I went a different route. The dragons in my headworld are on the same level in intelligence with humans, so their Pandora counterparts would be creatures that are the same.
As of now we only have two species on Pandora that fit this: The Tuluk (the sapient alien whales) and the Na’vi. Since the story of my Headworld is about a human that literally falls into the rest of the story which introduces her to the fact dragons exist and have been in hiding all this time, I went with the latter:
Starting with Meg/Pendara herself. To put in a simple but inaccurate way, she’s the Jake Sully of this possibly AU. Not literally…I mean that she goes through a similar journey of “human that is a part of the Avatar Program but who ends up with the opportunity to live with and learn from the true Na’vi natives and comes to realize what she was in support of was wrong” he did.
Except as you can see, she’s a reef Na’vi-based avatar pilot. Reason being I want to explore that area of the story since I love the ocean and Meg would be perfectly eager to learn from ocean-based Na’vi. Not at first, of course…she’s uncertain about this whole thing at the start, but over time she falls in love with the planet’s ocean and the way the reef people live.
How she gets into this situation…I will have to see if it’s possible to expand on this AU before going into that… But I have Pandora counterparts of the others:
First Megaera (given a Na’vi name), who is a rain forest Na’vi like the main characters are. Her father being the clan chief, she is the next spiritual leader in training like Neytiri was. She’s not like Neytiri, though, of course…instead she is more like Ronal at first, very anti-human and skeptical that they can learn anything from the natives of Pandora (though for similar reasons to Tsu’tey who lost loved ones to them). Her opinion changes when she befriends Meg.
Then Calixthzan, who is a “fire” Na’vi because his dragon counterpart is a volcanic dragon. We don’t have any information on them yet except that they’re called Ash People and are much more aggressive than the other races, possibly even intolerant, but are called “evil” as a general term. Cal is like the others of his clan at first, and displays this clearly by wearing a necklace of bones.
The bones consist of fangs belonging to a predator of his territory, and what look to be human bones snapped in half to better decorate the necklace. (It’s later revealed they’re the bones of only one human…and are literally snapped in half to decorate the necklace and make it look like there was more than one kill. It’s a scare tactic mostly, and it isn’t clear how the human died or if (Cal) was even the one to do it…)
Then Frjord and Azure (also given better names if I ever find a list) who are in (Megaera’s) clan. (Fjord) is an adult by human standards, but not according to the clan. He has yet to choose an Ikran and partake in the Dream Walk ritual. It isn’t clear why, as he is not incompetent or lazy, but he isn’t ready yet apparently.
(Azure) is recognized as an adult, having an Ikran and everything, but is not referred to as a warrior much. Neither as a hunter or a fighter, (Azure) only does enough to not be viewed as useless to the clan. It may be related to the scar on his face, but Meg isn’t ready to ask about it.
Then there is Nox…who is as unusual and mysterious here as he is in the headworld story.
Nox (called by many other names) is the local that Meg meets and that sends her on her journey like Jake’s. Except Nox isn’t in the Metkayina or any of the other reef clan. He isn’t in any clan at all. Nox isn’t even a Na’vi…
He is what the Na’vi see as the Wrath of Eywa, a large, powerful, and both feared and honored creature of Pandora whose intelligence, age, and connection to the planet is said to surpass all others’ but the goddess herself. However, he does not command the flora and fauna as Eywa does…though he can communicate with them as the Na’vi do.
How does he have two forms, though? By doing what humans learned to do, switching his consciousness from his true body to a Na’vi body which he travels in normally. When you see his true form, it is a sign from Eywa that the balance has been deeply uprooted and that her rare but existing mighty wrath against this is coming to fix it. (Nox) is the first and most seriously received sign before this occurs.
I might continue exploring this AU sometime, especially if people are interested in seeing more, but for now this is the concept designs of everyone.
(Also I didn’t want to add the glowing dots to the others…because I didn’t have much to go on for them.)

2022
This year has been an absolute wild ride. I've done so many things and so many things have happened that I wanted to write up something to kind of put it all into perspective for myself mostly.
So 2022 started a panicked scramble to move across the country from Oklahoma to Pittsburgh, PA to live with my partner. This was a big step for me because I had lived in the same house my ENTIRE life! So this was the first time I was moving. It was a pain in the ass, incredibly stressful, but so worth it. I love pittsburgh and I love being here with Meg.
I got a second tattoo! An homage to Van Gogh's sunflowers. I plan on slowly working up to a full sleeve.
We visited a lot of really amazing places like Phipps, the carnegie art museum, the aviary, the frick museum, a bunch of art shows, but my favorite was seeing Hadestown in person in an absolutely astoundingly gorgeous theatre.
This year I started to dig into a lot of different kinds of art. I finished a (small) traditional painting that I still really love. I made some traditional art for Art Fight that I'm really happy with and some lovely gift art for friends. I've also dug a bit back into my own game designing and art for fun. My taste and skill for cooking has EXPLODED since I moved here and I have 4 cook books on my desk alone right now! We also have 4 plants that we take care of and I'm very happy with how they're doing. (yes cooking and plants count as art!!!)
I started reading a LOT more this year! I read... -Small Gods by Terry Pratchett -The Crossroads at Midnight by Abby Howard -The Trees by Percival Everett -Greener Pastures by Michael Wehunt -Shiver by Junji Ito God there might be more but I didn't keep a list... I'll keep a list next year
Theres SO many theatres in Pittsburgh! Meg and I saw a couple movies this year. Nope was amazing! Belle was a gorgeous anime movie. But it was Everything Everywhere All at Once that really blew us away. I don't know what I could say that would do that movie justice. I just remember walking home from the movie and getting choked up just discussing it.
Played a ton of games this year. I'm really happy about it because I played a bunch of weird and older games that really expanded how I feel about video games. Between Morrowind, Dwarf Fortress, Caves of Qud, System Shock 2, and Prey 2019 I feel like I've grow a lot in the games I consume and how I look at them.
I didn't get around to playing as many tabletop games this year as I would have liked but my game of Root TTRPG has been going strong! A year now and its so much fun each time! Plus, a weekly game of Gloomhaven has been great. Gloomhaven is a very fun time but also can be draining with how much thinking I have to do.
While moving was the biggest thing for me this year, Art was up there. I left my position working on Sun Haven in September. There were a good handful of reasons that I don't really need to get into but the main thing was I just wasn't happy. After leaving I've felt rejuvenated and excited about art. Working on a bunch of different things and excited to work on more. I have so much planned for 2023 and I can't wait to hit the ground running with projects I'm working on, starting, or planning.
In 2017 my twin sister passed away. That started a big chain reaction that, somehow, led me to here. It was a terrible thing that happened and I still feel the echoes of the pain today. But because of that I have grown into a much stronger person. When I sat in the audience of Hadestown, knowing how much my sister loved musicals, knowing how much she would have loved this one specifically, I fidgeted with my necklace. It's a small silver container of some of her ashes. I turned 30 this year. All of these things coming together, getting out of oklahoma, being in the big city, seeing hadestown, all of the tiny, daily things combined feel like I have closed a chapter in my life. 2022 wasn't an easy year, it had it's ups and downs as any year would. But it was the best year I've had in the past 5. I am so excited to see where I go from here. I don't know what 2023 will bring but I'm expecting big things for all of us.

Interview with Helena Bonham Carter and Russell T. Davies for Radio Times | January 2023
INTERVIEWER: Ginny Dougary WHAT A STRIKING entrance they make! Russell T Davies, an imposing 6ft 6in, with Helena Bonham Carter a little over 5ft, by his side, waist-high. He is in his customary uniform of work shirt, jeans and desert boots. She is all vintage vibes, Miss Havishamesque in a dark emerald satin dress, radiating sparkles from several shiny necklaces and a diamanté clip artfully placed to guarantee her dark hair is not kept in place. We are in a green room in the depths of Queen Elizabeth Hall at London’s Southbank Centre, where the writer and the heroine of his latest television drama have been on a panel to promote the show – Nolly – and to explain why the main character of an almost forgotten soap opera is worthy of this stellar treatment. Nolly is Davies’s tribute to Noele Gordon (the drama took her nickname for its title), the star of Crossroads, the soap set in a motel in the fictional village of King’s Oak, near Birmingham. Known as the “Queen of the Midlands”, Gordon played motel chatelaine Meg Richardson and for those of us who watched it – at its peak it boasted 18 million viewers – she was the beating heart of the show. In its various incarnations, Crossroads ran from 1964 until 1988, but in 1981 fans woke up to the shocking news that its star had been sacked and four years later, Gordon died of cancer at the age of 65. Davies, who once wrote a trial episode for Crossroads in his early 20s, loved the soap and was always intrigued and saddened by Gordon’s removal and subsequent demise. In his skilled hands, what could have been a cheap crack at a soap whose tight budget was revealed when the walls visibly wobbled, has been transformed into something noble. It is an exploration of the apalling way women were treated, discarded seemingly on a whim and how anyone who didn’t fit into the expected mould was misunderstood. It is also the restoration into the limelight of someone who might otherwise have disappeared forever. Davies wants to show us the extent to which Nolly was a trailblazer and part of television history. Gordon was the first woman, for instance, to appear on colour television as well as the first female to interview a prime minister on screen (Harold Macmillan). STILL, HER LIFE is undeniably an odd subject, on the surface of it. As Davies says: “there are many reasons why you wouldn’t commission it. I mean, there’s nobody under the age of 50 who has heard of Noele Gordon. “I’ve been extraordinarily lucky to tell this story and that’s because of It’s a Sin [his critically acclaimed 2021 drama about the 1980s HIV/Aids crisis]. It’s one of those very rare moments in a career where people are saying, ‘What do you want to write?’” Was he concerned that his motivation might be assumed to be poking fun or ironic? “Very much so,” he admits. “Irony is paper thin. Irony only lasts two minutes. We’re proper drama makers and if you approach it to take the mickey, then the drama has no heart or soul. Why even attack a soap opera? You wouldn’t get three hours of drama from it.” Nevertheless, there will be people who are still mystified by the concept. “To be blunt, that’s when you cast Helena Bonham Carter because she lifts your standards and makes people look and say, ‘Well, that’s interesting!’” He turns to his star and adds: “you create an expectation of class and quality. Stop laughing! You know it’s true.” As part of Davies’s research into Gordon’s life, he read her autobiography and loved the constant barbs about how much the actors were paid on rival soap Coronation Street. “I used to work with Granada and they were treated properly there,” says Davies. “It’s got to be said that ATV didn’t treat the cast of Crossroads properly.” Bonham Carter’s accent flattens à la Nolly: “We had to buy our own costumes! We were only given £40.” He also spoke to the original Crossroads cast – Benny, Miss Diane et al – as well as floor managers and chorus boys who had worked with Gordon when she did Gypsy. “I’m not daft, I kept chipping away at the public front, but that’s when I started falling in love with her, because people kept telling me how much they loved her. I spoke to Tony Adams [who played accountant Adam Chance and along with Larry Grayson was one of Gordon’s closest friends. Mark Gatiss plays Larry Grayson in Nolly] and as time went on, I realised that they really adored her. She was strong and I’m not whitewashing her…” Bonham Carter chimes in. “She wasn’t easy but she had a lot of compassion and she treated people right. She was an impressive woman.” Davies is the son of two classics teachers and grew up in Swansea with his two sisters in a house where the TV was always on. When we first met in 2019 for his dystopian drama, Years and Years, he recalled that I, Claudius was the first time he had seen men kissing, which confirmed the way he felt about boys. BONHAM CARTER, who shares a son, 19, and a daughter, 14, with ex-husband, director Tim Burton, was brought up with her two brothers in Hampstead; her mother was a psychotherapist and her father a merchant banker. Much has been written about her illustrious forbears on both sides of the family (a prime minister, Lord Asquith, on the paternal side; Rothschilds and heroic figures who saved Jewish lives on the maternal). Her family also watched I, Claudius as well as Upstairs, Downstairs, The Forsyte Saga, Wings, Dad’s Army (“My dad’s favourite”), The Monkees, Happy Days and The Brady Bunch. As for Noele Gordon, “she was sort of like wallpaper, in the background”. What made her want to do the show? “It was a complete gift of a part,” she says. “With so many good scenes and story, she ended up being a very gallant woman. She has been mistreated but she doesn’t gloss over it, she says exactly what happened to her. There is nothing apologetic about her, I love that.” There is a strong scene when Gordon is talking to younger female cast members in the theatre about why she was sent packing, “Yes, ‘I was sacked because I was sackable’,” Bonham Carter quotes. Davies clarifies that this line, “was just me riffing on the role of women and how they were treated. “And it’s still true that women can be treated disgracefully, isn’t it?” he adds, turning to Bonham Carter. “Oh God, yeah,” she says. “I think when Sue Barker left A Question of Sport she said that she wasn’t given a choice…” Davies concurs with the comment, “and she had power and establishment and status…” “They keep on asking the opinion of people they never see and it’s such a cruel thing to do to your ego. All these likes and dislikes,” she finishes with a sigh. Davies is clearly as passionate about women’s rights. “We had Women’s Lib in the 60s and here girls are in 2023 and they think they ought to be slimmer with bigger busts, and sexy and on Love Island. Women, when are you ever gonna revolt?! Women, when are you ever going to say ‘Enough!’? “I look at my niece’s friends on Instagram and every inch of their faces is covered in make-up, fillers and extensions. Whatever happened to just having a good laugh?!” Davies is almost 60, Bonham Carter is close behind. They’re both sanguine about aging. Davies remembers his youthful concerns. “When you were young, you wouldn’t go out if you had a spot! Wouldn’t worry me now!” “It is liberating to be older,” Bonham Carter adds. “The skin isn’t necessarily as attractive but who cares?!” When Davies and I spoke last, it was six months after his husband, Andrew, had died. During his illness, Davies gave up work to be his carer. He said then that he hoped the loss would get easier – has it? “No and I don’t expect it will,” he says. “It isn’t killing me. I’m quite glad that I’ve gone back to writing Doctor Who because psychologically I’m thinking, ‘He knows what I’m doing now’. It gives me comfort. It’s when you do new things he never experienced that it feels odd and you don’t enjoy it so much.” “You don’t get better, but you get better at it,” interjects Bonham Carter, “that’s what my mum says.” The actor is no stranger to family sadness. When she was five, her mother had a breakdown, which took three years of recovery and led to her becoming a psychotherapist herself. When she was 13, Bonham Carter’s father was diagnosed with a tumour and during the operation to remove it, had a stroke that left him blind and half-paralysed. He died in 2004. Bonham Carter has been reading books about coping with death because she has lost friends and family over the years. She’s most anxious about how to prepare for her mother’s death. “I’m quite haunted by what life will be like without her, she’s been such a sensational mum,” she says. “It isn’t just the death, of course – it’s how much they are a part of you and how do you rearrange your sense of self without them? I’ve had a few friends who’ve gone and I really feel that I carry on with them within me. And when my dad died, I wrote a whole book to him because I had to keep talking to him.” “In some ways, it has got worse,” comments Davies, “because it’s ‘Oh, you’re still not coming back?’ Maybe it’s why Andrew keeps popping up in everything I write. Even in Nolly with the scenes of her cancer, I found myself visiting hospitals. There’s been death in a lot of the stuff I’ve written over the past few years. I don’t mind that. I’m glad. It feels richer.” Bonham Carter nods. “We have to incorporate it into our lives and talk about it. And even with divorce, too – people don’t talk about it. For those of us who are grieving a divorce or someone who has gone… our heads are full of that person. So this thing of ‘Don’t mention it…’” She shakes her head. HER FRIENDS DON’T tend to be actors but go back to her days at school, latterly Westminster. Several of her closest pals work as teachers in the state system. As we draw to a close, Bonham Carter looks down at my notes and reads out the name of her (younger) boyfriend Rye Dag Holmboe, a Norwegian writer, art historian and psychoanalyst. We’ve run out of time but she says she wouldn’t talk about him anyway because of his job. But what are we to make of the fact that both her mother and her partner are shrinks? Could she have been a psychoanalyst herself in another life? “I could still train,” she says. “It’s a possibility. I think I might actually have another life.”

Because tumblr basically doesn't allow the tag nsfw anymore here are some answers to spicy ask I got under the cut suggest/sexual themes
N- Nudes. Do they send them to each other? Do they save them on their phones? Have they ever sent one to a wrong number?
Yes with Haddie going traveling so much they're both master sexters at this point in the relationship. Mikaela is a HUGE tease sending tasteful nudes giving Haddie little "peaks" of her body in suggestive poses and she sends videos occasionally to Haddie as well.
Haddie is a lot more forward with her nudes and doesn't send those cute teasing photos Mikaela sends (not often anyway) They do save each others nudes and such but Haddie for fear of getting robbed or pick pocketed while travelling she will often transfer the videos/pictures to a secret password protected folder on her computer.
Haddie has NEVER sent nudes to the wrong person and never will Mikaela? Yeah Meg has def gotten a tasteful booty pic randomly at 3am from Mikaela.
J- Jewelry. Do they own any sexy jewelry? What do they think about it?
Mikaela doesn't wear it very often but she does own some body jewelry that is meant to be "sexy" like those chest necklaces that wrap around the breast as well as the ones that wrap around the chest and hips. She wears it sometimes on special nights usually when Haddie comes home from a long trip Mikaela will be in the bed draped in sheer lingerie and body jewelry. Haddie likes it and its fun to do some royalty like roleplay with it. Though it very often gets taken off pretty quickly and forgotten
Some images references
(on a undetailed mannequin) https://shopstylereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/StoneFans-2018-Women-Full-Rhinestone-Body-Fashion-Chain-Necklace-Jewelry-Shiny-Rhinestone-Crystal-Bra-Body-Charming-1.jpg
(nude backshot but no butt or breast are shown) https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0783/5275/products/MG_6069_1024x1024.jpg?v=1669370589 (another mannequin but it has a little bit more form than the first one) https://i.etsystatic.com/7711918/r/il/a17934/2127144581/il_fullxfull.2127144581_9kcq.jpg
A- After care. Do they take care of each other after sex? How?
YES After care is like 50% of the sexual experiences for them. They are very loving and love cleaning each other up and praising one another. They have to be VERY VERY worn out to not do any aftercare and just turnover to pass out KJKJH
G- Games. Do they play any games involving sex?
They mostly play strip like games when they've both had a little bit to drink and are messing around having a good time. They also have "trivia" strip where they ask each other random trivia and if the person gets it wrong they have to remove a piece and at the end of the day who has the least clothes "loses" and has to do what the other person commands (Haddie can always tell when Mikaela loses on purposes but she doesn't complain)
