I wake up and it's October (28.10.2023)
I just feel a bit keyboard moody today I guess. Like October isn't over yet but I guess I should reflect on it before it flashes before my eyes and it's 2024 already.
October is also mental health awareness month, but I haven't caught up on my TikTok content for a while. Partly because I was occupied with finishing the AFP application and m4i program I guess. Another reason is I don't if I should carry on the way I created content on TikTok like before. It felt like hit or miss most of the time and I want to focus more on FB content.
A good thing was, that I finally informed my manager about my resignation! I'm a really indecisive person but once I made a certain decision, I would be really stubborn with it. This time I felt like it was really time. I told BKT about it and some close friends as well. I didn't know what to do after that, but I knew I had to make this decision instead of keep thinking about what-ifs.
We did a shooting again for Pchum Ben for KPComms. It felt redundant since I did it last year already, but it was fun still. I'm just glad that last year H asked me to do the shooting and opened up an opportunity for me to do something I never thought I could.
I also met V, V, and BKT for dinner. It felt good to reconnect with them once in a while. They represent a world that's familiar but also different from where I currently am.
Wow, I wrote all these and they all happened in the first 3 days. I think I spent the first week trying to finish the guidebook for SEA Fokus as well. The experience was traumatizing as well to have a manipulator in the team that used the project solely for individual purposes. It was tiring but at least I was happy to put all my efforts into something for once since the project started.
The exhibition day was not bad. I got to meet and connect with many people, but there was always this underlying feeling that I was not doing and socializing enough.
The next day I literally had to go to the pagoda with my relatives. Damn, there's a lot going on in October for real. My uncle still asked offensive jokes. Should I respond back in a rude way next time? I can't believe that this time I feel like I did well. I think my brother was more under pressure about the topic of marriage.
Just a day before Mental Health Awareness Day, I finally finished editing a video. That's the gift for the day. I'm just so happy that despite my insistent schedule of posting, people still care enough about my new video. but well, it's still no excuse to keep doing this.
On the 10th, I attended the opening orientation for the Chevening boot camp. I really am involved in everything and everywhere. I literally sat next to Chermeng and also met Piton. I can't believe it and they were also really friendly at the same time! They were really caring. I'm so glad to make new friends! I can't believe that Piton said he had watched my videos on TikTok. I'm so glad to make friends outside my usual circle!
I finally did the 3rd coaching session. I guess I made it so broad that I couldn't achieve what I set out to do in the beginning. There are only 3 sessions left. I also met March over the weekend and got to connect with him about his master's program goal. I feel like people really start to see, admire, and want to connect with you and vice versa when we do something that we truly care about.
Nothing super significant happened in the second half of the month to be honest. Mostly, it was all about preparing for the Chevening app. I attended the 2nd and 3rd sessions and I felt so inspired! I got connected with some people outside my circle too including a chief editor at Fresh News, and an employee at UNICEF. Wow! But what will I make out of this connection though? Let's see.
Piton also offered to review my essays too! Huhu, what did I do to deserve this! I also met b Ratha to ask for his pieces of advice about AAS. He provided some really interesting insights and ideas as well! I'm so grateful.
There came this week. I missed out the 4th session because I didn't finish my essays yet. I must say during the applications, I also feel like I discovered bits and pieces of myself as well. I really have deep respect for b Nara for organizing all this.
We also did a Halloween shooting this year. It felt underwhelming but whatever. I also finally organized Social Hour 2 with my team. It was really chaotic for me to organize the Zoom but I'm glad it was my first time to do it!
This month, it felt like the month of connections really. I got to connect with some people and deepen the connection as well like 7-8 people. I also did an interview yesterday with B Samang. I got to meet several people. I'm so grateful.
There was this one problematic guy but I should never let him determine my whole experience!
I had this one question at the start of the month about the negative feeling I had about networking. Why do we end up seeing people just for pure value and our own benefit? I think I got an answer. Networking is about building, taking, giving & maintaining. That one guy that ruined my perspective was he was lacking in giving. His whole networking experience was to see how he can take advantage of people which is really problematic. During the Chevening sessions, I discovered how networking could lead to such meaningful movement or collaboration. I should carry on this mindset.
I asked a speaker during a session about setting unrealistic goals. He said it wasn't wrong though because even if we can't achieve it, we would end up further than we could ever thought.
There was this underlying feeling about me being a jack of all trades. I kind of had to accept that I'm a multifaceted person with several passions. It's like we're going to watch the sunset. It's not wrong to stop at certain points to enjoy different views or take some turns. Life isn't about the destination, it's about the journey as well.
I still struggle with one point though about conflict confrontation. Maybe I'll discover how to handle that better soon!
I should start thinking about my next plan soon as well. My content plan? Erasmus+? Eras tour? Taiwan trip? EU volunteer?
Overall, I feel kind of satisfied with this October experience really.

Hi, I hope I'm not bothering but I wanted to get a matchup ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა I'm bisexual so go ahead, I equally like all genders!
ISFP | Scorpio | she/her
Love Language - Receiving: words of affirmation, quality time | Giving: Quality Time, acts of service
Flaws: I can get specially hyperfixated in something that fascinates me, whether is work or a hobby, then I usually need to get reminded to take a break so I don't overdo it or get too carried away.
Distrust is a tendency of mine, and it gets in the way of creating meaningful relationships more often than not. I just avoid opening too much about certain thoughts and feelings, if I don't shut them down completely.
My memory can be bad, specially when it's about dates, names of people not close to me or really distant memories. For remembering anything about my childhood I literally need photos as I can't recall a thing for my dear life
Also, I suffer from easy indecision — it can be difficult for me to choose and sometimes I rely too much in others' opinion on the matter 𖦹 ´ ᯅ ` 𖦹
Interests: a fashionista interested in alternative aesthetics, photography and collecting plushies and dolls, but I'm also into animanga (fav genres are romance, mystery and thriller) and classical literature and poetry. Yeah, maybe a strange combination
Friend Interaction: even if I'm not somebody who makes friendships with ease, I talk a lot. And I really love to share anecdotes, hobbies or talk about really anything with anyone kind enough to lend an ear or talk to me! Even if I'm merely there to hear them rant about something they like or need to express. I love conversation. Still I can enjoy spending time in silence too, but it needs some form of proximity beforehand.
My sense of humor can be too broad sometimes, so I adjust to others easily. I'm a little bit of a tease and mischievous, but never in a mean way.
On the less bright side of things, I'm still a sensitive type of person and a little bit moody, so I can get passive-agressive with my friends when angered or disappointed. Not that I don't feel guilty like... inmediately and try to amend things as fast as possible.
Goals: I want to make a lot of happy memories to keep. Because I'm a visual person, I make albums to fill with photos about those times I wish to keep. Sounds cheesy, but that's the only thing that I want.
Also get my hands in cute plushies... but that's a lot less meaningful and cool (っ- ‸ - ς)
Fun facts:
- I take care of some flowers by my window and I talk to them when I get lonely 🐛
- Always have extra food to share
- milk tea is like my favorite thing ever
- sheep and cat person, strangely
Thanks you for your attention and have a great and plentyful week 🫂💕
Your Girlfriend DM'ed You!
Tumblr media
Crushing
・‥…━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━…‥・
“P-Put me down, Angelina!” you yell to no avail. “No can do, [Y/N]!” The Vupo’s ears twitched at your sudden noise has a smug smile on her lips. “I can’t just let you down now, don’t wanna disappoint you!” You wish you could just float away, but with Angelina’s hand on your wrist and with no gravitation working, you’re stuck in the air for now. You recall that arguing with her would just result in you being spun and flipped through the air. The Positive Outlook of this situation would be that you’re not taking one step today through the city. The more negative outlook of this would be that due to your delay on today's date that your girl friend is dragging you through the city, while you’re just hanging in the air. “Can you tell me where I am going- I mean, floating to today?”  you question. You two spend a lot of time in the city, just window-shopping, loveable-hand in loveable-hand wandering through the city. Usually, it’s along with Croissant, today though she has been too busy to join you. “Well, what does it look like, [Y/N]?” Thus she halts in front of a little coffee shop, “Grand Opening?” you mutter out. It’s a huge sign in pink with brown textures just hard to miss, the little building looks a lot like a cake itself in this creme color! “That’s right, we’re going to feast like Queens today!” she applauds, quickly stopping after noticing that you could float away. “Let’s give it a try!” she cheers and lets the gravitation work on you again. ・‥…━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━…‥・ A half-hour passes, multiple cakes still on Angelina’s plate. “Aww, I can't finish all these cakes on my own. What do I do~” she whines, giving you a wink. I hope you’re prepared for big desserts and sweet kisses.
General Dating
・‥…━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━…‥・
flushes easily when you tease her, tease her too much and she will float away. Stargazing as a date while listening to old music. She uses Firefox to find out the meanings of your flowers and teases you (not mean) about you talking to flowers. “Did they tell you how cute you look today?” she winks. She always finds the right outfits for you, but god, she loves it when you pull more alternative clothing articles out for her. She never had an interest in these before, but she can’t take her eyes away from the cool choker you gave her.  dainty jewelry.
Angela is interested in young adult novels herself, mayhaps you can introduce her to some romantic or murder-mystery literature.  Love reading with you, while listening to old music and talking about the most intense moments in the books and the character themselves.
Love Language
・‥…━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━…‥・
Your girlfriend sweet-talks with you a lot. She’s your hypeman for the most mundane things; “C’mon, [Y/N]! You can open that jam jar!! Show him who’s the boss!” She used to be much more nervous and exciteable around you during her crushing phase, now she’s just as exciteable and in love with you. She’s very clear that she holds big affection for you, she will forever treasure the karaoke night with you as she sang sappy love songs for and with you. Croissant never hears the end of it, she’s very happy for Angelina, finally, Angelina doesn’t need so much comfort anymore and can allow herself to be happy. Angelina will always be forever thankful for your help in her studies. She has trouble starting her work, as she prefers to procrastinate it forever, because, it’s soooo hard to do without you :( For your efforts, she’s going to repay you with gifts such as dolls, dresses or doll dresses! (At least she could procrastinate studying a bit, hehe) Angelina read so much about stargazing in her novels, she wants to try it dearly with you and move to you as close as possible, and just enjoy your presence under the stars.
Helper and Flaw
・‥…━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━…‥・ She feels personally attacked by your passive aggressiveness and isn’t sure how to deal with it, she will react most likely irritated by your change of tone. She feels threatened by your tone and doesn’t. Once you apologize she’s going to hold a little grudge for a while, but will get over it the next day and tries to find words to express why she felt that way. At first, she also felt upset that you weren’t able to recall her birthday, but after hearing that you’re really bad with recalling these days, she makes the effort to remind you of special days coming closer, and helps you organize! Angelina would be a great help to give you reminders, you’ve spent so long on your interest already, and you most likely weren’t even able to take a sip from your glass yet. She’s going to message you reminders often and picks you up to eat lunch together.
Fun Facts
・‥…━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━…‥・
Angelina has a whole album wiht pictures of everything she holds dear! Like you and croissant, decorated with cats, sheep and fox stickers. A few dried flowers of yours are taped in there as well. You both decorate each others albums!
I peg Angelina as the type to have a diary as well, she’s been writing into this dairy since she’s living in Rhodes.
Once she commissioned a cat lady to make little dolls of you and her.
She’s a good coffee maker, usually they are a bit strong, but she gladly makes a milk tea for you during your learning sessions or just because you enjoy them.
She made a calendar for you with images of cute animals and selfies with her, and even marked the most important days, such as your exams, or anniversaries!
There’s barely a day going to pass without a “click” sound of your girlfriends camera, just making sure you’ll always remember how pretty you looked and writing down the date and occassion for that day.
With Angelina, you’ll always make happy memories.
・‥…━━━━━━━☆☆━━━━━━━…‥・
Other matchups: Tequila, Ayerscarpe, and Irene

An Exhaustive (And Exhausted) List of the Pros and Cons of Taking Four A-Levels
It’s been a hot second since I wrote a school advice post, mostly because I have been the one in need of school advice as of late. However, today I have been thinking back on my own life choices because I have 6 A-level exams this week and I’m not entirely sure I’m going to survive it’s nearing the end of my school career.
For context, I take chemistry, biology, maths and further maths, got all 9s at GCSE and have an offer from Oxford to study biology. Baller credentials if you ask me. So without further ado, here we go:
Pros:
You get to study more stuff you enjoy, which if you are indecisive or a nerd is a huge bonus. If you took further maths GCSE, for example, you’ll be super bored in year 1 maths A level, so having something more interesting to do in further maths was a great help.
You can afford to do badly in a subject. This is great because if you love a subject but can’t get good grades, you can still take it and not need to worry about how this affects your university entry. Bear in mind, however, that the extra time spent on a fourth subject will impact your other grades.
Having a broad range of knowledge is always helpful.
It’s worth trying out 4 A-levels, if only to check out which subjects you like or to see if you can handle the workload.
Cons:
I have so many exams. As mentioned earlier, I have six exams this week. Which might not seem a lot now, but trust me, it sucks. I’m pretty sure I just failed chem, but I have to get up and do maths paper 3 tomorrow.
Don’t expect to have much of a social life on top of the homework. Remember that A-levels are designed to be taken 3 at a time, so regardless of how easy you find it the workload and time you spend on it will pile up quickly. As a guide, I would generally have 1-2 hours a day to myself during weekdays, and I’d spend a few hours on the weekend catching up. If that doesn’t sound sustainable, this is not the path for you.
You will burn out. This is a fact of life. Doing this much work is actually really bad for your mental health! If you’re not in a good place right now, don’t bother. It literally isn’t worth it.
Speaking of it not being worth it, universities literally do not care if you’re doing 4 A-levels. Not even Oxbridge, not even secretly. Because it isn’t realistic to be able to do all that! Don’t put yourself through this just because you want a better chance at getting into uni. It won’t work.
So yeah, that’s my advice! In terms of me, I don’t regret doing 4. Well, I do, but I also wouldn’t choose any differently because I love further maths too much and chemistry gives me too much valuable background knowledge to drop either one. I really, really dislike chemistry though. Don’t do chemistry unless you absolutely have to.

Chapter One: Set The Stage
-Nalani-
 “My God, everybody is gonna be in town this weekend, especially since it’s a long one,” Lynix said as she plopped onto the oversized bean bag that was in the corner of my room.
 I remembered the day we’d walked into Z Gallerie just to look around. Neither of us expected something like that to be in the high-end store. It didn’t take long to instantly fall in love with it, and thankfully the store had two left in stock. They were both the same color but completely different fabrics. Lynix preferred the fur one, but I needed the leather one in my life. That’s how it always was with us, we liked different finishes, but we had the same luxurious tastes.
 “I know. I was trying to come up with a plan. Beach, and shopping tomorrow, then spa Saturday?”
 Lynix scrunched her face. I knew she loved both, but right now, I needed her to make a damn choice. She’d always been the indecisive one, especially when it came to two things she enjoyed equally. When Nix shrugged, you knew she’d come to a decision.  
 “Eh—doesn’t matter, although I think we should shop first. I’ve wanted to get a few new suits.”
 The amount of excitement that surged through me was too much for me to contain. When I screeched, Nix’s head snapped to me. As I clapped my hands excitedly, a huge smile plastered across my face. “Yeees, then I can pick up that new brow kit that Jackie just dropped. Uugh, I am so ready for it. I have so many ideas for content.”
 By looking at Nix’s face, I could tell she was also looking forward to the day’s activities. What girl didn’t like shopping for new things such as clothes and makeup. Usually, when we went shopping, we would go early and not leave the mall until it was closing, and both of us would have so many bags that were filled with things neither of us needed.
 “So, it’s a plan, I confirmed.
 Nix nodded and continued to scroll through her phone for a few moments before she stood and walked out to get ready. Living in Miami, there were tons of pros. The weather was a major one. For the majority of the year, the weather remained calm, beautiful, and sunny. That meant that I could dress however the hell I wanted. After rummaging through my closet for the perfect thing to wear, I decided on a pair of dark denim jeans, a white scoop neck tee with two slits at the sides that carried all the way up my ribcage.
 When I sat down to beat my face, I had Saweetie blasting.
 “Can’t stop, won’t stop get guap. Ten white toes in them Troy flip flops. Manicures and pedicures I’m tip-top. When they say I’m not hot, all these lies need to stop. Cause I’m icy, wifey, haters wanna fight me.”
 Feeling the music, I stood and did my best hot gyal Meg moves. Within a few seconds, I heard Nix’s telltale “ayyyyyy.” Turning, I saw her standing in the doorway, using the doorjamb behind her as a twerk partner.
 “Get it!”
 She stood and rapped the next verse. “My team is trying to eat, so we grinding til’ out mental bleed. You tryna get a bag of weed? I’m tryna get a bag a week. Put it in my savings and invest in the right companies. My dream is like a child, and I’m taking all the custody.”
 That was when I joined in too. We were rapping, twerking, and acting a fool for the next minute or two. I watched Nix drop to the floor and pop her ass from left to right. Not being the one to be outdone, I bent forward and made mine clap. When I felt her drop a heavy-handed slap to my ass, I dropped and brought her with me. We laid on the floor, laughing together for a full minute.
 “You play too much. You can’t let me be great! You and your knees like Meg head ass,” I teased. She snorted loudly.
 “I got Meg’s knees, and you got her ass!”
 “Okuuuur!
 Nix stood and straightened the ruffles of her off the shoulder white crop top at the same time my phone rang. When I picked it up off of the wireless charging port, I screeched out.
 “What the fuck is wrong with you?”
 I showed her the phone so she could see who was calling. Her smile was broad but not as wide as yours. After three rings, you picked up the facetime call. Lewis’ gorgeous face filled the screen, and your belly fluttered. His groomed mustache chin beard decorated his face in a way that was just so pleasing to the eye. It complimented his facial structure so well. The man was too damn fine for his own good, and the worst part—he knew it.
 “Hey, handsome,” I answered in my sugary seductive voice.
 “There she is Lani, Lani. How are you, beautiful?” Lewis’s smile was soft, but it still gave way to his dimples to take center stage.
 “I’m good.”
 “That’s good. Wooo, you look good as hell,” Lewis complimented in his smooth voice. It was the voice he used when he wanted something, and the voice always got him anything he wanted. I bit my bottom lip and plopped onto my bed.
 “Did you just wake up? You look like you’re in bed still.”
 “I kind of did. I caught an early flight, and once I got in and did some training, I crashed.”
 My eyes dropped to his bare chest, and I found myself wondering if he was naked. Usually, that is how he slept. The memories flooded me, and like the wind, I was gone, lost in my lascivious thoughts.
 “Lani!”
 “Sorry, babe, what’d you say?”
 “What’re you up to?”
 “Nothing much. Was just kicking it about to do some shopping.”
 From the corner of my eyes, I saw Nix trying to get a look at him. I slanted the screen so she could see without him knowing she was there. She gave me a look to say, “excuse me.” Pressing my lips together, I tried to stifle the laugh that wanted freedom.
 “I had an idea. I’m in Vegas for the weekend. You should come through.”
 Nix’s eyes bugged.
 “Vegas?”
 “Yeah. This is one of my last weekends of freedom before press, and all that starts. So, I thought, why not have some fun. You down?”
 I looked to Nix, who was now standing behind my phone with her back to my balcony's sliding door. She nodded her head excitedly while motioning for me to say something.
 “Uh—well, I don’t know, babe. This weekend? Lew, that’s like—tomorrow.”
 Nix gave you a look asking if you were crazy. I had every intention of accepting the offer, but there was no way in hell that I was going to make him think he had it like that. A girl had to have some mystery about her no matter how fine the man or how good his stroke game was.
 “I know it’s short notice but come on Lani, it’s Vegas!”
 Lewis began moving, and it gave you the answer you needed; he wasn’t naked. His black boxer briefs clung to his hips, making my fingers itch to hook in the waistband. The visual swirled, almost giving you motion sickness before his face came back into focus with all the sights of Vegas behind him. I made out a few landmarks, mainly their replica of the Eiffel Tower and the strip's blinding lights. A smile spread across your face before you rolled your eyes.
 “Okay.”
 “Yeah?”
 He was so damn adorable. He actually looked surprised as if he really was surprised you’d accepted.
 “Yeah. Why not? I’m sure you can find some way to entertain me.”
 Lewis smiled, but this was no regular smile. It was one that spoke of so much. We’d been dealing with each other on and off for the last two months or so after meeting at a music event. I’d gone to cut loose and ended up catching the eye of some rapper who had a really grandiose ideal of himself. He thought I’d leave with him and turn into another notch on his bedpost, but once Lewis and I got to talking, there was no way. He was categorically more interesting.  After two or three dates, the inevitable happened, and he dispelled all negative stereotypes about Asian men.
 “I have a favor, though, babe,” I began with a sweet as honey smile.
 “Name it.”
 “I want to bring my friend.”
 Nix’s eyes again bugged; she wasn’t expecting that. As she flailed her hands around telling me to cease and desist, I ignored her.
 “A friend you say?”
 “Yep, my bestie, Lynix.”
 “Oh, thee Lynix? Say no more. The more, the merrier,” Lewis answered.
 “Really?”
 “Yeah. I’m looking forward to finally meeting her. I’ll make the arrangements and text you the info.”
 “Okay, babe. I’ll see you soon.”
 I puckered up and blew him a kiss. Before I ended the call, I watched him lick his lips, and even more excitement filled you.
 “What the hell was that? Who said I wanted to go to Vegas and be the third wheel to your sexcation?”
 “Nix, come on. What would you do? Stay here? Call dickhead and fall back into a situation with the only benefit being mediocre dick?”
 Nix’s jaw dropped. “Wow, the call out wasn’t necessary, Lani.”
 “I don’t’ sugar coat. You’ll have more fun with me in Vegas. Plus, it’s not a sexcation.”
 They were words I didn’t even fully believe. It was just a matter of time. Nix paced the floor as she contemplated the offer. “I don’t want to be a third wheel,” she protested.
 “You won’t be. Lew is cool. It’ll be fun.”
 She didn’t look convinced, but she looked more inclined to being easy about it than continuing her protest. The moment I saw her acceptance, I sprang to my feet and hugged her.
 “It’s going to be a great weekend.”
 After a few moments of embracing, Nix was the one to speak first. “Come on! Hurry that ass up. I’m hungry!”
 She always got hangry quicker than anyone I’d ever known. After another fifteen minutes or so of primping, we left determined to catch our favorite restaurant for lunch. In Miami, everywhere anyone turned, they were met with skin, suntan lotion, muscles, and food. To some, that meant that they had to remain on point or else someone would catch them slipping, and no one wanted that. In Miami, if someone caught you slipping, you lost your man, job, or even worse your lifestyle.
 Nix and I didn’t have to worry about that. We were secure in our careers. Lynix was able to make surprisingly good money as a top food and luxury goods blogger, while I’d found my place in the fashion and makeup influencer world. Where every influencer was a copy and paste option, I worked hard to set myself apart from them. My ideas were fresh, and my content always showed that I thought outside the box. Since our bags were secured, our lifestyle was safe.
 However, when it came to men, both Nix and I liked to keep our options open. Life was meant for living. These days, a lot of men acted like they wanted to live but truly only brought headaches. Who could be bothered? That didn’t mean we were in no man’s land. Whenever the need arose to be wined and dined, we went out and entertained whoever we chose. A girl might not want headaches, but she does want to be spoiled and made to feel pretty. Lewis brought no headaches, he treated me well, and the handful of times we’d gotten it in, it showed that he had far superior bedroom manners than anyone she’s dealt with.
 At lunch, we ironed out the plan for the day now that the weekend plan had significantly changed. Bathing suits and makeup were not the only things we planned on picking up at the mall now. There was a whole new list.
 “Nix, I thought I heard you up on the phone last night. Was it Caesar?”
 Lynix rolled her eyes as she took up her burger and took a hearty bite. As she chewed, she moaned and motioned to her plate. The burger was nearly bigger than her mouth, but she made it work.
 “This is so good, Lani.”
 I leaned over the table toward the burger. She knew what I wanted and held out the burger for me to take a bite. Moaning, I relished the flavors that burst over my tastebuds. It was rare for restaurants to season their food with more than a pinch of salt and a dash of pepper, but I could taste much more than the two.  
 “You’re right. The avocado is a great addition.”
 Nix took another bite as I stirred my pasta dish before I began eating.
 “Is he bugging you to get back together again?”
 Nix rolled her eyes again, but she nodded, “You know it. I don’t get it. It’s like he thinks the third time will be the charm.”
 I loudly kissed my teeth. Men like that were annoying as hell. For starters, I didn’t think the second round was a good idea, and I sure as hell didn’t think third time was going to be the charm, but I kept that to myself this time. “What do you think?”
 “Hell no!”
 We busted out laughing at the same time, not caring how loud we were. I noticed the eyes that slid to us from nearby tables. It was clear they were curious about what was so funny.
 “I told you, you need to try something new,” I said while wiggling my eyebrows. “It’s a good thing we’re doing Vegas this weekend. I think you’ll find that something new.”
 She rolled her eyes. “Don’t make no plans for me, Lani. You always wanna play matchmaker.”
 “I didn’t have matchmaking in mind—well not in the way you think,” I gibed.
 Her jaw dropped, and I couldn’t help but laugh. Yeah, Vegas would be a damn good time all right, I thought, as we finished our meal.
 By the time we got to the mall, Lewis had texted the info for the first-class flight he’d booked for the two of us. He made sure to add the message, “Making sure two queens travel the way they deserve.” When I showed Nix, she rolled her eyes, but I could tell she was just as in awe as I was from the smile on her face.
 Take-off was eight in the morning, which meant the rest of the day would be jamb packed to ensure everything got done. We flitted from store to store and spent money like we meant it. What was supposed to be a two maybe three store stop turned into four hours of complete indulgence. With the intent to pick up something nice for Lewis, we found ourselves in Agent Provocateur.
 After trying on a few pieces, I suckered Nix into trying some things on too. She didn’t protest with this. She liked lingerie, no matter the reason.  She thought it would be just for her pleasure, but I was beginning to formulate an alternate plan, one she had no idea about, but she would—in time.
 When we were both dressed in our final selections, Nix snapped a picture of me in a yellow number and sent it to Lewis.
 MSG: Decisions, Decisions.
 In less than a minute, his response came through.
 MSG Lew: Sold! Matter fact, get it in every color.
 Two hours later, with take-out in hand, we made it home. It was late, but instead of packing and getting some rest, we decided to binge-watch the newest season of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina on Netflix. As you ate, you gossiped, laughed, and enjoyed the time together as you always did. There was a reason you’d moved in together; you genuinely liked each other and enjoyed hanging out together.
 ~~~~~~~~~~
 -Friday-
 The next day after two hours of chaos with last-minute packing, dancing, an impromptu fashion show, and taking turns doing each other’s makeup and hair, we finally were seated in first-class enjoying a glass of rosé.
 “Man, he sure knows how to charm a girl,” Nix joked.
 “You have no idea.”
 “Uh—I kinda do. You’ve literally told me everything about him,” she added.
 She was right. I had told her quite a bit about him. I’d also tried to get them to meet a few times, but each time one or both of them had other things they had to do. I wasn’t worried they wouldn’t like each other; I was sure once they spoke, they’d hit it off. I was counting on it for my plan to work.
 “So—Nix,” I began, again in my sweet as honey voice.”
 “Don’t try to use your charms on me, Lani. I know all your tricks,” she countered.
 Rolling my eyes, I pouted and decided to forge on. “What do you think of Lew?”
 “I told you, he’s cute.”
 “Yeah, but what else?”
 Nix looked at me as if she were trying to figure out my angle.
 “I don’t know him, Lani. From what I’ve seen, he seems like a cool guy, end of story.”
 It wasn’t a raving review, but I had to take it. Maybe her tune would be different after she got to see what he was about.
 “Just—know that you’re the only person I don’t mind sharing with,” I dropped before I popped my AirPods in. I could feel her eyes on me, but I pretended not to notice. I’d give her the flight to marinate on what I meant.
 After a three hour nonstop flight, we made it to baggage claim and got our belongings, then went in search of the driver that was supposed to be waiting for us as per Lewis’s text message from this morning. It didn’t take long to find him because he held up a sign with both your names on it.
 “That’s us.”
 “Great. Welcome to Vegas, I’m Drew. I’ll be your driver. Is this everything?”
 He nodded toward mine and Nix’s six total pieces of luggage. I nodded and allowed him to gather them before he walked ahead, leading us out of the busy airport. Once we made it outside, Drew ushered us into the waiting luminous pearl white Mercedes Maybach.
 “I don’t think that yellow number from Provocateur is gonna be enough,” Nix teased, making me giggle way too loudly.
 She was right though, mans was putting in all the stops. This wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, though. Lewis liked to enjoy life. He liked the finer things and didn’t see a reason not to indulge in moderation.
 The drive wasn’t obscenely long, but it was filled with quite a bit of traffic, especially considering it was just past eleven in the morning. Google said it was supposed to be a twenty-minute ride from the airport, but it turned out to be nearly thirty fives. Neither of us minded. We chatted, recorded a series of lives, and took several pictures to post to our respective socials.
 Once the car pulled up to the hotel, we walked inside, taking in every detail while I pulled out my phone. It was a beautiful hotel.
 MSG: Should I just give your name to the reception or something else?
 “No need. I gotchu.”
 I spun around, coming face to face with a dimpled and smiling Lewis.
 “Aah, babe!” Lewis came in for a hug, and once he wrapped his arms around me, I moaned. His arms felt so damn strong. He was not gimping on his workouts.  
 “How’d you know we were here?”
 “I got the alert from the driver and the company,” he responded as he kissed my cheek. He smelled so fucking good.
 “How are you, babe?”
 “Better now that you guys are here,” Lewis answered with a wide smile.
 I shook my head; the charm would be the death of me. Lewis’s eyes had already drifted to Lynix, who was standing back a few feet.
 “Finally, you two can meet. Lew, this is Lynix, my best friend in the entire world,” I declared with one hand holding Lewis’s and reaching out for Nix’s hand with my other.
 They both just stared at each other for a few moments without speaking.
 “Lynix,” Lewis began.
 “Nix,” she corrected. “The only people who call me Lynix are my parents and acquaintances.”
 Lewis smiled and nodded. “Glad to know I’m not an acquaintance.”
 Nix smirked and shrugged. “You’re a minuscule notch above it. I’d be careful, though.”
 Lewis’s laugh was loud as it echoed throughout the lobby. “Wow. Of course, she’d be just as witty as you,” he said, glancing across to me. I shrugged. I had told him we were pretty similar.
 “It’s nice to meet you,” Lewis added before I slipped his hand to hers, letting them both go.
 Both of them looked at me with a question in their eyes, but it quickly faded before they looked back to each other and shook hands.
 “Same here.”
 A few more seconds elapsed with both of them holding hands before Nix dropped his. I pinched my lips, sensing that everything was falling into place. From the look on Nix’s face, I could tell she thought he was more than cute.
 “Okay, let’s head up to the penthouse and get you two settled,” Lewis announced.
 The three of you, the bellhop, and a few other hotel guests, rode the elevator. Lewis asked questions about the flight and if everything was good with the drive over. I happily thanked him for everything he’d done thus far and took the chase to tease him with touches. The thing I loved about Lewis was he was equally as flirtatious as I was. He liked to tease as much as I did and did it with ease. Every touch I placed on his arm, chest, and cheek, he returned with his lips to my ear as he whispered to me, or his hand on my hip as he held me close, or even his words. He knew his appeal and always used it as a weapon.
 Once you made it to the penthouse level and walked inside, Lewis handled the bellhop and directed him to where the bags went while I dragged Nix to the balcony to marvel at the beauty that was Las Vegas. I looked over to Nix and bounced my hip against her.
 “See. I told you this was a good idea.”
 “Fine, this is gorgeous,” she finally admitted.
 I pulled my phone out, ready for another picture. As we posed and blew kisses to the camera, neither of us noticed Lewis approach the balcony doors. When I looked over, he wore a soft smile as he watched.
 “Babe, get in these pictures!”
 He held his hands up. “I don’t wanna barge in where I’m not wanted.”
 “Oh, you’re more than wanted, right, Nix.”
 She licked her lips and shrugged. “The more, the merrier.”
 Lewis scoffed and nodded as he came over to stand to the other side of me, leaving me in the middle. After two or three pictures, I moved him to the middle, so it was a proper sandwich.
 “That’s better. It’s more aesthetically pleasing,” I remarked. Both Nix and Lewis simply nodded.
 “Everyone say, Sin City!”
 We all shouted it as my phone did snap after snap. I liked to do the burst shots because I preferred natural-looking pictures, and out of the twenty in the burst, there was bound to be at least four that were gold. After about five minutes of posing for pictures with Lewis in the frame, he took over as the cameraman. It was over then. When you put us in front of a camera together with someone else taking the snaps, we turned into a whole different monster. It was like when the power rangers morphed together into that one super ranger.
 I turned my back to Lewis and looked over my shoulder. Nix leaned close, touching her cheek to mine while resting her hand on top of my ass. I peeped the way Lewis lowered the camera for a few seconds before he brought it back up to take the picture. When we changed poses for me to lift Nix’s leg to show off the skin of her thigh, Lewis again lowered the phone, this time I saw him lick his lips before he sucked his bottom one for a few moments. This was going swimmingly, I thought to myself.
 Lewis let us settle in while he took care of a little business, and that was when I saw he’d had my bags placed in his room. It felt good to know he was on the same page as you were about this Vegas trip. Sometimes it was hard to decipher what someone’s true thoughts and feelings were. With Lewis, sometimes it was plain as day.
 The knock at the door had me turning to see Nix leaning on the door looking around.
 “So, what’s the plan? I’m starving.”
 “You’re always hungry.”
 “Listen, don’t try to hunger shame me, just feed me,” she countered as she walked inside the room to plop down beside me.
 “Look.”
 Handing her my phone so she could see the comment under one of the pictures I’d posted from the balcony shoot. I watched her face closely, and when I saw her jaw drop, I snorted.
 “Your followers are freaks.”
 The two of you laughed together before Nix stretched out on the bed. As if not liking the position, she brought her legs under her to sit on her shins. The shorts she wore had ridden up her thigh.
 “I mean, he said it, not me,” I defended as I got more comfortable. Not realizing how close my phone was, I accidentally pushed it off the bed.
 “I’ll get it,” Nix offered, crawling to the right side of the bed to bend over the edge to get my phone.
 With Nix’s ass high in the air, that was the moment Lewis walked in. Almost instantly, his eyebrow shot up with his eyes glued to her ass. It couldn’t have gone better even if I had planned it. He liked what he saw.
 “I got it.” She handed me the phone.
 “Hey, babe.”
 In shock, Nix yelped and turned, looking at Lewis.
 “You guys look super comfortable in here,” Lewis answered. I laid down, placing my head in Nix’s lap.
 “It’s a nice bed, hard not to be comfortable.”
 Lewis loudly cleared his throat before he spoke. “So, what do you guys want to do?”
 “This one is begging to be fed,” I said, tapping Nix’s knee.
 “Okay, let’s go. I know the perfect restaurant.”
 “Great,” Nix replied, instantly moving off the bed. “I’ll meet you guys downstairs.” With that, she was gone.
 Lewis’s eyes roamed over my body before he crossed the room to stand at the foot of the bed, looking down at me.
 “How long’s it been?”
 “You tell me,” I countered. His smile was again one of the flirt.
 “A few weeks?”
 “Just about.”
 Lewis lowered his body on top of mine, but he didn’t touch me. I opened my legs, pressing them back to the mattress, reminding him just who he was fucking with. I watched him look down my body to my pressed back legs. He scoffed before he looked back to my eyes.
 “Ready for me, huh?”
 Bringing my foot to his crotch, I felt his hardening patch. “Maybe about as ready as you are for me.”
 Quickly Lewis dropped his lips to mine and kissed me. Wasting no time, he delved his tongue into my mouth, swirling his with mine. I moaned on his lips and wrapped my legs around his back. Finally, he pressed his muscled body to mine, teasing me with every hardened plane of his frame. He was absolute perfection.
 Lewis moaned once more before he pulled away. “Didn’t you want to eat?”
 “I could definitely eat,” I said, reaching for the buttons of his pants. He groaned and took a few steps back.
 “Good things come to those who wait, beautiful.”
 Lewis nudged his head, signaling for us to go. He was going to be the death of me, I thought.
 Twenty minutes later, the three of us found ourselves at a restaurant that served a mix of breakfast and lunch options. When we sat, Nix moved to sit on my right while keeping Lewis on my left, but after a subtle rearrangement, Lewis was in the middle with both of us on either side of him.  I could tell she had questions, but she kept them to herself. I knew I’d have to clue her in soon.
 “So Nix, anything in particular you want to do while here?”
 She looked at Lewis as she finished chewing. “Not really. I’m pretty easy.”
 “Oh, really?”
 She smirked and shook her head, “When it comes to fun,” Nix clarified. Lewis smiled and nodded.
 “Lani’s told me so much about you.”
 “Oh yeah? All bad, I’m sure. Don’t believe anything she’s told you.”
 I kissed my teeth and rolled my eyes.
 “Oh, so don’t believe that you’re funny as hell, really sweet, talented, a damn good cook, and that you’re a great person?”
 Nix looked at me and melted. She was easy.
 “Awww, Lani,” she began.
 “Shut up, don’t make it weird.”
 The three of us chuckled before Nix continued. “Those you can believe, but I’m not as sweet as she says.”
 “You look pretty sweet to me,” Lewis slid in.
 The way Nix looked at him said she was speechless. When she looked at me, I smiled and gave her a look to say, “told you.” The man was walking charm.
 “Looks can be deceiving.”
 “You’re sweeter than you look,” I added, leaning to Lewis’s cheek to place a soft kiss to it. “Trust me,” I whispered into his ear.
 A few moments later, my phone went off.
 MSG Nix: What are you doing?
MSG: Nothing. What do you mean?
MSG Nix: You’re being weird.
MSG: I’m not. I promise.
MSG Nix: What are you up to?
MSG: Nothing.
 The look she gave me was one that said she didn’t believe shit out my mouth. I didn’t blame her. I was utterly up to no good.
 After some lunch, Lewis took us around to show us the sights along the strip. The three of us quickly roamed through Vegas’s version of Ripley’s Believe or Not before making it to do a little retail therapy. I roamed around the store with my arm laced through Lewis’s picking up different things. That was when I got one of my best ideas. With my arms filled with clothes, I whispered to Lewis for him to sit back and enjoy the show.
 When I came out dressed in a skin-tight dress, Lewis’s eyes roamed my body, examining the way it hugged my curves.
 “Do you like it?”
 Lewis signaled me to spin, so I did. When I looked at him again, he looked pleased.
 “The color’s nice on you. Looks good.”
 “Your turn Nix. Come on.”
 “I don’t have to come out. I’m good.”
 Rolling my eyes, I went to the door of her dressing room, opened it, and pulled her out.
 “Lani!”
 “Wow, that looks incredible on you.”
 She traced her hands over her body before she turned to look in the mirror, turning her back to Lewis.
 “Yeah?”
 “Definitely, get it. Right, babe?”
 Nix didn’t turn, but I saw her looking at him through the mirror.
 “Yeah, get it,” Lewis answered before his eyes dropped back to his phone.
 That was not acceptable, I thought.
 On the second reveal, I wore a low cut white top and a pair of leather pants. Lewis had me come closer to touch on the pants. While he appreciated visuals, he appreciated the touch more.  When Nix came out, she had on a figure-hugging leather dress with a plunging neckline.
 “Wow,” Lewis exclaimed.
 Bingo, I thought. Nix turned to face him, but she looked at me. Nodding my encouragement, she looked at him.
 “Yeah? Is that a good wow?”
 “Uh—it’s, you look great,” Lewis added.
 “You can do better than that, babe,” I coaxed.
 Lewis licked his lips and slid his phone back into his pocket. “It looks good on you.”
 As I walked back into my dressing room, I heard him correct himself. “Really good.”
 I considered that a win.
 After trying on a few more items, we cashed out. Lewis being the gentleman he was offered to pay for the entire thing. Nix protested, but when she did, he insisted even more, so she conceded and accepted defeat.
When we made it to one of Vegas’s most popular attractions—the sky jump from the top of the STRAT hotel, Lewis went first and made it look like a breeze. He was so carefree about it too that it made me want to go next. Nix didn’t protest; she looked terrified.
 Once I jumped off the edge, it was the most exhilarating and terrifying feeling I’d ever felt. Everything zipped past my eyes. For a few seconds, I felt like I wasn’t attached to the rope and that I was plummeting to my death, but the minute the rope snagged and bounced me up, and down I relaxed. It was incredible. Vegas was beautiful.
 When it was Nix’s turn, she damn near freaked out. She tried several times to back out, but I wouldn’t let her. After several minutes of talking her into it and assuring her it would be the best thing ever, she approached the operator only to back away. That was when Lewis stepped in.
 “Look at me, if you really don’t want to do it, that’s cool but listen to my voice for a minute. Are you looking at me?”
 She nodded. Lewis placed his hands on his waist and held her in place.
 “The worst part is right here. Don’t think about it. You’re safe. This will be one of the things you’ll remember for the rest of your life. This is all we have in life, memories of experiences, and times we truly lived. After everything Lani’s told me about you, I’m sure you can do this.”
 Though she still looked as if she were half a heartbeat from passing out, she looked more confident. Nix nodded and turned back around. She stood there for almost a full minute before she shook her head no.
 “Would it be better if Lew did it with you?”
 Both sets of eyes landed on me. It was obvious they hadn’t thought about it.
 “He can go with her, right?”
 The three of us looked back to the operator who nodded.
 “See,” I added.
 “I don’t wanna make you. It would be weird,” Nix protested.
 “No, it wouldn’t be weird. It’s fine. Are you okay with it?”
 “Absolutely,” I assured.
 Lewis suited up again, and in less than a minute, he was ready to take another dive. As I watched the operator secure them both the harness, I had to hold the glee in to yet another situation I hadn’t planned that was working in my favor. I knew Nix, and in order for her to be at all receptive to what I was going to suggest, she had to be comfortable. When they were secured, Nix and Lewis were harnessed together fastened together at the chest. They looked like conjoined twins.
 Nix looked to me, and I gave her two thumbs up and a smile.
 “You got this bestie!” She rolled her eyes and looked like she wanted to kill me for getting her into this.
 “Ready?”
 “No.”
 Lewis chuckled before he nodded to the operator, and just like that, he jumped, taking them both over the edge. I could hear Nix’s scream the entire time. It was too funny not to laugh. There were a few moments of silence, but they didn’t last long. From the video attached to the contraption's overhead hood, I could see that her legs were now wrapped around his waist, and Lewis was securely holding her to him. His laugh was loud, as was her chastising him for laughing at her. They were already bantering like old friends. By the time the operator began pulling them back up, they were now staring at each other like not quite just friends. Maybe this would be easier than I thought, I theorized.
 We took in a few more sights before we stopped at the famous Bellagio fountains to take in the show. It was beautiful. I could tell why Vegas always mystified everyone. It was easy to become another person and get lost in the lights. Coming here, lines always became blurred. When we got back to the penthouse, the plan was to freshen up and get ready for dinner, then a club.
 After a shower, I stood in front of the window, trying to decide which dress to wear. That was when Lewis crept up behind him, wrapping his arms around my midsection.
 “There you are. Where’ve you been?”
 “I had a little meeting with my team. I’m sorry,” he whispered while kissing a trail from my shoulder up my neck until he got to my ear lobe. Moaning, I sank back onto him.
 “You smell incredible.”
 “I know.”
 Lewis’s hand slowly slid down my body until it dipped into my underwear. When I felt the soft brush of his fingers against my sex, I sharply gasped, dropping my head back onto his chest.
 “Mmm.”
 “Yeah, you’ve been craving this, haven’t you?”
 I nodded; there was no point in frontin’. He began slowly, lazily circling around my clit. His touch was so damn soft. It felt as If it was barely there. Within seconds I began wriggling, hoping he got the hint to pick up the pace. Lewis chuckled, clearly enjoying how he had you.
 “What do you want, babe?”
 “You know what I want, Lew.”
 “Use your words, princess.”
 I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction, but I also wanted my happy ending.
 “Make me come, daddy.”
 Lewis groaned loudly, sending the vibrations through my body. That was all it took for my body to blaze. Lewis pinched my clit then slapped it.
 “Fuck, babe.”
 “Are you wet for me, princess?”
 “So fucking wet.”
 He circled my clit again, this time giving you the amount of pressure and speed you needed. Sighing, you focused on the sensations that were coursing through you. His hands were a major turn-on for me. He looked like he used them often. Just as I was getting used to the way my body hummed from his fingers, he switched it up. When you felt him dip his middle finger inside of me, my knees buckled.
 Lewis’s strong arms held me steady as he backed us to the bed. He sat and placed me on his lap, leaving my legs wide for him. He retreated his finger only to add another digit to slip inside of me.
 “Mmm, fuck daddy.”
 “You are wet for me. You feel so fucking hot.”
 The slow way he sank and retreated his fingers inside of me only inched me closer and closer to madness. My pants echoed in the room and mingled with his deep, sultry moans. When he pulled them out to show you what a mess you’d made, he brought them to your lips.
 “Clean them off.”
 Not needing to be told twice, I lowered my lips over his fingers and sucked them clean, all the while showcasing just how deep my throat went. His moan became louder, but before you could take control of the moment, he pulled his fingers free and dipped three digits inside of you, stretching you—prepping you for his thickness.
 “Fuck!”
 His movements were no longer slow. He plunged in and out of me with a speed that had your back arching and your hand wrapping around the back of his neck where your nails sunk in.
 “You sure you wanna come?”
 “Yes.”
 “Yes, who?”
 “Yes, daddy. Please make me come.”
 Lewis added a twisting and rotating motion. It felt as if there was some sort of spiraling toy inside of me, and that was when I lost my shit.
 “Yes, yes, fuck! I’m coming!”
 It must have been music to his ears because, with his other hand, he pinched my nipple, sending me over the threshold and into a soft cloud pillow of ecstasy.
 “Such a good girl!”
 Lewis pulled his fingers free, and they were absolutely soaked. He gently tossed me onto the bed, then stood before me. I watched as he licked and sucked his fingers clean before he added a sly wink before he turned and walked into the bathroom.
 Dropping my head to the bed, I groaned out, “The fuck!”
  Dinner was delicious. Lewis picked one of the five-star restaurants that had given him an open invitation to come and see what they had to offer. When he walked in, all eyes were on the three of you. No doubt every woman wondering the same thing—how could they get a piece of him. all through dinner, the three of you laughed and told stories.
 Lewis told Nix and several stories from his set life and even dropped some fun facts about some of his costars or scenes we’d seen in some of his shows. When he asked about some of the shenanigans we got into, I didn’t hesitate telling him several stories that showcased Nix and my insanity. Every story had him laughing, and Nix cringing from all the tea I was dropping.
 “I can’t believe we did half of that,” Nix remarked.
 “Oh stop, don’t act like it was some other person. Your ass is just as crazy as me. It’s one of the reasons we get along so well. Plus, I know you always have my back,” I added.
 Lewis raised his glass. “To best friends then.”
 Nix and I raised our glasses, but before anyone took a drink, I spoke up. “To best friends and new friends.”
 The two of them looked at me, shrugged, then tapped glasses.
As the liquor burned its way down my throat, I shivered and flailed my hands. “Wooo, let’s get out of here. I’m ready to dance!”
  Within five minutes, the three of us were in the back of another chauffeured car on our way to one of the hottest clubs in Vegas.
 “So, is there a Mr. Vix?”
 “If there were, I wouldn’t be here.”
 “I doubt you’re the kind of woman who would allow a man to dictate what she could or couldn’t do,” Lewis countered.
 She has a soft smile on her lips, a sign of her conceding.
 “No, there’s no Mr. Nix.”
 “Is that by choice or circumstance?”
 “I choose my circumstances so--.”
 If there was one thing, Lewis liked it was mental sparring. I could tell he was intrigued by her. It made my plan easier.
 When we walked into the club, the music's loudness and the bright neon colors set the tone for the night. It was going to be a crazy, fun few hours. After situating in one of the VIP areas and downing a few drinks, I was up dancing with Nix while Lewis watched on and bopped to the music. As the alcohol began to take effect, we got into dancing and having a good time. Soon it became who could dance the most despite the number of drinks they’d had.
 After an hour or so, I pulled Lewis up to dance with us. I was in the middle with Lewis behind me and Nix in front. She twerked her ass onto me, while I did the same to Lewis. He held his own, but I wasn’t surprised. He looked like he knew how to dance. It was yet another turn-on. Lewis nipped my neck before he playfully rammed my ass with his crotch. Turning to him, I whispered I was going to get another drink.
 “Dance with Nix.” He met my eyes with a question in his.  Before he could open his mouth, I kissed him and walked off.
 It wasn’t a complete lie. I did want to get another drink, but I also wanted him to dance with Nix. After a few moments, Lewis approached her. She was at the railing, holding on with one hand while waving the other in the air. She was lost in her own world. I knew it was partly because of the alcohol. She turned and came face to face with him. both of them awkwardly laughed before Nix cheered along with everyone around when the DJ changed the song to Despacito.
 As she sang along, they both swayed to the beat. Every so often, Lewis leaned in and whispered something to her that had her giggling. Once the chorus started, she’d spun around and began winding her hips, adding in that Latin flare that Miami was known for, and that was also embedded in her DNA.
 Lewis dropped his eyes to her ass for so long. I didn’t think he’d make a move to dance with her, but when he stepped closer and placed his hand on Nix’s waist, I jumped as if I’d seen my own child score a touchdown. Soon their bodies synced, and they were dancing to the music but at a respectful distance. Lewis grabbed her hand and spun her back around, and the two did a mix of a salsa and bachata.
 From afar, they looked like they were having a good time. They sure as hell danced well together. Toward the middle of the song, he spun Nix back around. This time her back was pressed to his chest. That was when Nix rolled her body to dip to the floor. While bringing herself back up, she poked her ass out but not far enough that she touched him. Getting closer, I thought to myself before I made my way back over.
 By the end of the night, the three of you were tripping over your feet. Once we pushed through the penthouse's doors, it was Nix who had the idea to get into the pool. She wasted no time stripping down to her underwear and jumping in. Lewis and I were not far behind her. We swam and joked around with each other like drunken fools who had no cares in the world. After about an hour of swimming and acting like children with water games like Marco Polo and catch, we were leaned against the pool's wall enjoying another drink.
 “The two of you are a lot of fun,” Lewis sighed out before he knocked back another rum shot.
 “I tried to tell you. We know how to have a good time,” I reiterated.
 “As you can see by the one who has on no bra, she’s the one who has the most fun,” Nix teased.
 “You’re welcome to join the no bra club to take part in the fun,” I countered.
 There was no missing my meaning, and from the way she looked at me, I knew she got it. Nix looked like she was thinking about it, then her eyes shifted to Lewis who was watching the exchange. She made a move as if to unhook the front of her strapless bra, but as her hands made it to the front of her body, she lowered them and cleared her throat.
 “Ehm, I’m exhausted, probably jet-lagged. I think I’m gonna go pass out.”
 “Really?”
 “Yep.” She turned and swam to the steps of the pool before she climbed out of the water. “But by all means—you two enjoy the rest of the night.”
 Nix scooped up her dress off the floor and walked toward the sliding doors. “Oh, Lewis, thank you for the invitation this weekend.”
 “Don’t mention it.” Nix nodded, then disappeared inside.
 “Is she okay?”
 “Probably just drank too much.”
 I swam to him, took his glass, and finished it before placing it behind him. “What would you say if I didn’t trust myself to walk?”
 “Then, I’d carry you to bed.”
 Crashing my lips to his, my mouth stole his moan and made it my own. In seconds I was more than ready to be carried to bed and fucked to sleep. As if hearing my thoughts, Lewis pulled me to him and swam toward the steps. Forgetting our clothes, he walked inside, never taking his lips from mine. At the top of the steps in the hall, he pressed me to the wall giving me an idea of how much he wanted me. Scraping his back, I moaned loudly.
 “Fuck I’m so hard for you.”
 “I want you, Lew.”
 When be busted into the bedroom, he quickly dropped me back onto the bed and peeled off his boxer-briefs as I pulled off my underwear. When he pressed between your legs, you whispered to him to fuck you. Your self-control was gone, and you didn’t care if there was no foreplay. This entire day was foreplay enough.
 When Lewis thrust forward, connecting our bodies, I shrieked out and arched backward. Lewis pressed his hand to the center of my body as he rotated his hips, making my thighs hit the bed, giving him complete access to ruin you any way he saw fit.
 “Fuck, Lani!”
 His thrusts sped up and turned bruising. Each connection had your breasts swinging and your body shaking. Just when you were getting used to the pace, he set he changed the name of the game and slowed it down, making goosebumps prickle my skin. His lips found yours, and he took control of that too, the same way he was showing me owned my pussy tonight.
 “Whose pussy is this, Lani?”
 “Yours.”
 “Damn right, it’s mine!”
 As if shedding the gentleness, he kicked it up a notch with the way he plowed into me. With every dip, your body hugged him, making it next to impossible for him to retreat. With every snug squeeze, Lewis grunted loudly.
 “Fuck, right there, daddy.”
 When he pulled out and flipped me onto my belly, I knew what was coming. Within seconds, he slammed back inside of me, sending his dick so deep I saw stars. It was then I realized the blinds in the room were wide open.
 “Mm. I love how wet you are for me. Does this pussy love this dick?”
 “Yes, yes, yes!”
 Lewis grabbed the back of my neck and went to town. I could tell he was lost in his pleasure and the pursuit of his own release. It didn’t take long for your legs to shake and for you to drop onto the bed. With you splayed across the mattress, he only adjusted his angle and fed you every single thick inch he possessed. In seconds I’d come for the fourth time and gripped him as if he threatened to leave. His thrusts staggered and became sloppier and more desperate. He was close.
 “Fuck, I’m gonna come, Lani. Do you want it?”
 “Yes, daddy, give it to me.”
 After a few more thrusts, he slammed forward and shot stream after stream inside of me. Every few seconds, he grunted and tried to bury himself deeper and deeper though there was nowhere else for him to go. I was filled to the hilt. Thank god I were on birth control, you thought. That could have been the one to make him a real-life daddy.
 “Fuck, girl!”
 Lewis dropped a heavy slap to my ass before he collapsed beside me. Both of us laid there, trying to catch our breath before passing out from sheer exhaustion and satisfaction.

All of the advice I’m going to give you in this post comes from my personal experience. If you know me in real life, or at least knew me through high school, you’d know I’m one of the most indecisive people to ever exist. During my junior and senior year, I went through this huge existential crisis and researched online about pretty much every major known to humankind, and I still couldn’t make up my mind. I went from considering an Arts-related majors, Law, Business, etc, to finally deciding on Engineering, and I’m going to tell you how I did it, and how I managed to stick to this decision and feel confident about it!
Know what you’re going through is perfectly normal
This is not practical advice, but I still wanted to put it on top of the list because I know how much distress this topic can cause. When everyone else around you seems to know exactly what they want to do with their lives, this can only mean you must be immature and not ready for university, right? Nope. Trust me, it doesn’t mean anything. Seventeen-year-olds aren’t supposed to know what they want to do with the rest of their lives, and even the ones who tell themselves they do, they are very likely to change opinions in the long run. The point is, you are not supposed to be sure of anything right now. Your major will allow you to understand in which area you’d like to work with in the future, not your exact career path. Which brings me to my next advice to keep in mind: once you decide on a major, it won’t define the rest of your life.
It isn’t a final decision
I’m enrolling for Aerospace Engineering at university this fall, but I’ve read countless stories of people who ended the course and ended up working with Finance. I also know of many Fashion designers who were originally Architecture students. The point is, despite the name slapped on the page of your major of interest, what really matters are the skills you are learning. Even though, yes, an Aerospace Engineering student will most likely want to work as an Aerospace Engineer, they will have learned many other useful skills and will be able to apply them in different career paths, if they choose to do so. This same principle applies to most majors, like English, Business, and so on (I say most because there are courses like Medicine that are rather specific on career path). Therefore, have a look through university websites and see what the alumni of your majors of interests are working on, to understand the “range” of the major.
Know your priorities
Your major doesn’t have to be the one thing you love doing above anything else, despite what people say. I’m not saying you should choose it based on which one has a higher starting salary, because I don’t think it’s right, but it’s just that sometimes, people get too obsessed with finding “their true call”. Enjoying doing what you do it’s enough and, after all, you won’t get all of your happiness in life from your career choice. If you don’t find your “true call” right now, it’s perfectly fine. Realistically, most people don’t, and they still find other ways to fulfill their life through things like hobbies, volunteering, sports, and so on, which is great. Whether or not your major is your life vocation won’t dictate if you will be happy or not. If you think you managed to find it, that’s great! But again, don’t obsess over it.
Pros and cons list
For the first practical tip, write down all of the majors that interest you, and write all the pros and cons of choosing them. It can include anything, from the location of the universities around you that offer the major, to the actual things you like and dislike about the classes you’d be taking. This will give you an overview of what major seems more “worth it” to you, despite their cons.
Dig deeper
Find out the exact classes you’d be expected to take, projects and so on. Think if it is something you would feel motivated enough to go through, something you would enjoy in the long run, or something you’re good at. The major “summaries” universities offer on their websites, while often helpful, can also be very vague and have the aim of sounding more charming to prospective students. Therefore, looking through the syllabus and other more detailed pages can be very clarifying.
Look for different opinions
When trying to make my own decision, I listened to a lot of different people. They go from teachers to people on Youtube - all kinds of opinions mattered to me. The careers counselor in my school gave me a broad idea of the majors I was interested in, other majors that I hadn’t considered before, and her opinions based on her experiences hearing from alumni who were already going through college/had graduated. I also talked with people online and in real life who were already going through the courses I was considering - what is it like? Do you enjoy it? What are the ups and downs of it?
I mentioned watching Youtube videos, which can be very helpful, but often a bit misleading as well. Through experience, I’ve learned that it’s good to hear the opinions of multiple people, because the number of frustrated graduates making videos about their majors is overwhelming. While it’s important to hear their opinions and arguments for a reality check, sometimes listening to a positive experience regarding the same major is just as important. So, if you come across a negative video on something you’re interested about, don’t feel too discouraged!
Consider taking a break
If this is a decision you’re not ready to make just yet, consider taking a semester or year off. I think the belief that everyone should be graduated by a certain age otherwise they won’t be successful is complete nonsense. All over the world, some students spend years after high school studying to pass a certain university exams, others start university right away, while others need a little more time figuring things out. Everyone is different, and that’s completely fine. You can spend your break trying to find out more about your courses of interest, through maybe taking open course classes, or gaining experience through some kind of internship. Either way, if you don’t feel confident, know you don’t need to rush!
-
I went through a really rough time trying to figure out these things for myself, but again, that doesn't mean I'm completely sure of what I want to do with the rest of my life. I learned that, sometimes, you need to figure things out as you go! Overall, I hoped I managed to ease someone's anxiety and helped them find something useful.
Good luck! 💗✨

My Wisdom
So, I get asked quite frequently on my LGBTQ+ Roblox Community about a lot of LGBTQ+ stuff. It's kind of awesome to help people out on that platform, but also a bit risky since you can (and most likely will) get banned for saying positive things about the LGBTQ+ community. People who tend to say bad things are less likely to get in trouble compared to the people who are sending positivity, making avatar accessories, LGBTQ+ friendly "experiences", and so on. Overall, the outcome of the staff being really anti-LGBTQ+ (and I still have the emails telling me I cannot upload LGBTQ+ flag decals and accessories) has put a damper on my mood for the past few months. And in spite, I turned my old avatar accessory stuff into IRL merch. So they can suck it! | My DNI List | (mobile version)| With that said, I have quite a lot of questions from the group which is about 600+ people now. Still growing and lots of questions almost weekly, and really good questions that I wish I could explain more about. So... this is kinda what I'm going to do here. This is a butt load of Q&A;
I get this question quite a few times: What spectrum or umbrella is genderfluid classified as? Genderfluid can fit under many umbrellas and spectrums because of how fluid it is. The majority of the time, it's mostly labeled under the Transgender, Nonbinary, and Multigender umbrellas and spectrum. But it can include various other umbrellas/spectrums, including Agender, Xenogender, and Demigender (possibly even more) depending on how an individual feels about their gender identity. Of course, since it's a part of so many it can be considered on its own in a way. Again, it's all up to the individual, since everyone experiences it differently.
"If I went from demiromantic to akoiromantic in the span of a few weeks, and I sometimes feel less romantic than other times, would that be Aroflux?" Aroflux is when someone fluctuates across the aromantic spectrum and sometimes even into the alloromantic spectrum too. So, if someone were to feel their romantic attraction fluctuates mostly on the aromantic spectrum, Aroflux would be a term to describe that feeling. And it never has to be the entire aromantic spectrum, it can be specific terms or feelings instead. But I wholeheartedly recommend doing research on your own to figure out if you really identify with Aroflux or any other term. Sometimes reading through the aromantic spectrum list helps people.
"Is it normal to have multiple orientations?" Yes! And it's very valid! When most people think of multiple orientations, they think of the different attractions. For example, someone being Biromantic and Asexual. Or Demisexual and Lesbian. But you can also have multiple terms for the same kind of attraction! You can be mspec lesbian or mspec gay, those are valid (don't believe anyone who says otherwise)! People generally use multiple orientations to fill in the gaps one term may leave for them, as not everyone has the same definition or feeling for a term. The difference should be respected because it's important for some people and that matters the most!
"do you have any tips on coming out?" I've only come out to my closest family and all my friends pretty much know beforehand. But I know it depends on who you're trying to come out to. And age sometimes matters (like if your young and under guardianship still), because it's not very safe for youth to come out when their guardians are hostile towards LGBTQ+ members. Even though, I dislike letting people have to hide or feel fear of the idea... I do want to look out for people's safety. I don't want people to get hurt in any way. And sometimes waiting to come out is a better option. If you know your family is conservative, be a little cautious. Think about your plan of coming out. Maybe ask questions to get an idea of what they think about LGBTQ+. For example; "Do you know what Pride Month is?". Sometimes that sounds like your seeking answers to curiosity without outing yourself before you know their thoughts. I know a bit from experience, cause I'm still waiting to come out and some of my family is conservative. This is sort of my plan to work up the courage and know it's safe to come out to them. And as someone older and still hearing what family says, it sounds a lot different once you understand what they're talking about.
"I have been in the Nonbinary umbrella a while and I kinda think I am still a girl but I am not sure since I don't like the girl title on me..." It's up to the individual in the end. But also, pronouns do not equal gender. And gender does not equal physical appearance. So, if that's your main concern you are still valid no matter what gender identity you identify with. Dress how you want and use the pronouns that make you comfortable! But if you still concerned, I do again recommend some research. But there are many types of non-binary genders out there. You can even use multiple to define yourself! If it's an intensity fluctuation where you feel like a girl strongly at one moment but then not at all another moment, it could be similar to a Demigender. There's also Paragender, similar to Demigender which is to describe more of someone who feels more like one gender but there is still a small part of them that feels like another or a combination of others. But those are only two of the many many options out there! There are tons of genders that are feminine/female/girl-aligned, close but not quite feminine/female/girl, or even just a tiny bit feminine/female/girl-aligned, while also still being nonbinary in some way. Nonbinary is a rather large umbrella, so there is a big list to research and choose from!
This is a two-part question and I had a little help answering it with @orlan-the-sapphic on my group's wall. It was an awesome question and really interesting! "Can Demigirlfluidflux be a thing? Or am I just really indecisive? I'm really confused on which I am it's all mixed up for me" Orlan's reply: "I'm pretty sure it's possible. I mean there's already a term for Demifluidflux but without the girl or something female part. I mean you could probably make the term of the identity yourself if someone hasn't already if that's what you find for who you are or for others too". (I love Orlan's reply, couldn't have said it better myself). I definitely believe Demigirlfluidflux is a thing. I'd imagine it's probably a combination of Demifluidflux and Girlflux, or maybe Demifluidflux and Demigirl (possibly even all three?). I'm unable to find a definition for it, but it's probably similar to Demifluidflux but with female being static (stationary or main, not meant to mean strictly binary) gender alongside possible other genders and intensities. It would make sense since demigirl is a label based off of demigender but defines more of the female-aligned experience. But coming back to what Orlan said, if someone wants to they can make their own term. This might including making your own flag (whether it's a combination or completely new)! "I have another question... does Agenderfluix mean both fluid and flux with any gender? And if not is there a Agender term for being fluidflux with only demigirl and demiboy?" Agenderfluix, from my understanding, is mostly considered Agender however similar to how Fluidflux fluctuates in between different genders and different intensities. There are many ways for it to fluctuate and can experience many genders as it's a mixed term of Genderfluid, Genderflux, and Agender based off of the wiki page I linked. As for another term for Fluidflux, I couldn't find one with just demigirl and demiboy. I would imagine it's probably a mixed term like Agenderfluix. Maybe named something like Demibifluidflux? A mixture of Demigender, Bigender, and Fluidflux. It would be something I recommend searching up. If nothing pops up, again people can make their own terms to help identify themselves the way they want.
And last but not least; "Is it possible to just not identify as a gender? I find it annoying finding it out and I identify as Agender now, but I don't know if that will stick. My gender switches between most genders and then sometimes I don't identify as one..." That is a possibility and it's really up to the individual on how they want to identify or not identify. As someone who is Genderfluid, I often feel like this. Either I; switch between many genders, don't know what I am, only switch between certain ones most of the time, just don't want to deal with the hassle of figuring it out, or feel like nothing at all. There have been so many feelings about gender I've experienced over the past 4ish years of knowing I was Genderfluid, plus more before knowing (which was really confusing at first). And the thing about Genderfluid is that it's not always a broad spectrum. You can be specific genders throughout your entire experience, either fluctuate regularly or in the past. It happens to some people and that's okay! Sometimes it is just a hassle to call it something, so it's okay if you don't use a term. You don't need a label to be valid! Genderfluid is probably one of the broader terms to use when someone experiences a fluctuating gender. But there are of course many other types of fluctuating terms, including ones that describe intensity on top of fluctuation. Again (probably gonna say this a million times), something to look up on for yourself.
I found those questions rather neat to answer, plus I enjoy helping people out when I can. Remember; no matter if your identity or orientation changes over time, you're still valid! And you are the sole person in control of deciding who you are and how you want to label yourself (or even not at all)- Roxzania💙

G25 Part 2 Essay, Very Dense
There is very little I will say as a preamble besides that Part 2 was a very powerful conclusion to an extremely climatic arc. That being said, spoilers below and my Part 1 essay can be found here.
I will start by saying that although I am quite satisfied with this ending I wish things could have ended differently. This is the first time we were given antagonists who were actual individuals we had to overcome. And in doing so, we were faced with people who had powerful reasons and motivations to sacrifice for. That is something I will come back to later so—
In a broad overview of the plot of Part 2, we were given an uplifting reunion with Talvish, who claims that his decisions and choices were made with the Milletian’s best interests in mind. And it’s nice* to work together after so long, to finally have him fulfill the promise of being with the Milletian at the very end. There is a sweet moment where the roles are reversed and the Milletian asks him if he is alright. Instead of being asked to trust him, he wholeheartedly puts his trust in the Milletian.
*if you know me even just a little, you know I simp hard for this man and let me tell you I went from “I will be the first one to punch him” to “please don’t go” in a matter of minutes
And then, when everything is rewound and the Milletian is able to protect their friends and prevent the worst possible ending, all the Good Guys have a Good Time. This is of course, glossing over the fact that Deirbhile sacrificed herself, Tani dying with a finality that Milletians shouldn’t have, Piran falling apart, Treasure Hunter breaking down, and Marleid conflicted over what to do with her extremely Problematic Childhood Friend.
We still got to have a good time! We got to revel with our friends! Speak with everyone and catch up and talk and chat and eat and—
It was nice but I am very bitter because those good times only emphasized how different it ended for Cethlenn and Vayne.
If Part 1 was about trauma, Part 2 was about breaking out of predestiny and walking a different path that was set before you. This comes quite literally when Talvish appears and rewinds time* to save the Milletian from the future he saw. He (and later, Hymerark) reveals to us something that touches the fourth wall:
*not sure why I was so surprised that he could manipulate time in such a way when the Milletian’s first meeting with him was through time. Maybe I just thought it was through the Milletian’s powers that they managed to communicate but clearly Talvish’s powers were doing something.         Oh dang it makes sense why he isolated himself in a desert for centuries now…because he can’t affect time that he has been personally involved in
The ability to redo main storyline missions when we fail them is quite literally the Milletian, breaking the flow of time to try again until we succeed. Due to the nature of altering timelines, those uninvolved with the messing of time don’t remember all the previous attempts. Later, it is revealed that all our redoes and failures have a negative impact on Erinn; it increases the entropy in the world as different realities are created and then stopped. Tani is a result of that.
It is further revealed that Vayne⁠—or I should say now, Beimnech, is a singularity who experiences all these timelines and realities. He must return to Mag Tuireadh whenever the flow of time breaks because it is the role he has been forced into by Hymerark. He is the counterpoint for Talvish. The two are diametrically opposed, canonical foils with mirroring ideals and views of the world. Beimnech mentions during Eternal Dreams that he has seen Milletians fail to convince Talvish* to change his mind about the world, or fail to garner enough faith in their friends. In the current timeline, Talvish is enlightened by the Milletian and so takes control of his fate and chooses to rewind time instead of having it cut off and restart.
*It is implied that Talvish also experiences the different timelines over and over again, but he forgets it the moment the timeline is replaced with a new one. Alternatively, Beimnech is also taken out of time and space whenever the flow is broken, so the cycles are even more unbearable because he is forced to witness them as an outsider.
Beimnech did not have the liberty of meeting the Milletian before he met Hymerark. Unlike Talvish, he could not surround himself with equal companions and could not hope for a life where he was not just fulfilling a role to balance the world. The only way he could have some control over his own fate as cycles repeated over and over again was to orchestrate his own death*. He remarked before in G24 that had he and the Milletian walked different paths, they could have been friends and not enemies. Both he and Talvish see the Milletian as a savior—as a guiding, bright light. But while Talvish burned alongside the Milletian, Beimnech burned out like dying embers** or a shadow too weak to hold up against illumination.
*maybe it’s selfish, but who can blame him when he only has himself? I seethe with the unfairness of characters that have no choice but to be the “darkness” to contrast the “light”. The “what could have been if things were different” hurts as do the inability to break free from what was laid out. I seethe, but that means the story is doing as intended and I am by no means criticizing, just empathizing (I’d highkey write something like this ngl I am a ball of angst).
**the refrain that plays when the Milletian is prompted to deal the final blow to Beimnech is called The Last of the Heat Fades/Residual Heat Fades Away.
Beimnech’s disappointment in the Milletian in Part 1 is suddenly very understandable. He had pinned all his hopes in one person and he knew they were going to fail. We even saw him return to end the Corrupted Milletian in the future that we never got to witness. He did for the Milletian what he hoped they would do to him*. And then for once, to have time rewind instead of abruptly ending? I can’t imagine…
*I chose to not stab him. Apparently that gives you more of his backstory. Regardless of the decision, when he tells you he lies for the first and last time about his death…
Something can be said about Cethlenn, too, who was “emptied out” by Fodla. His current name, Cethlenn, was given to him by Beimnech, which honestly if you know your myth and lore spawns so much food for thought*. Speaking to Cethlenn in Tech Duinn on Saturdays reveals that Beimnech gave him that name because he always wanted a right-hand man with that name. Whatever that implies to the nature of their relationship… If you have the time, please, please speak to him with all the keywords at your disposal. It’s worth it.
*another food for thought includes Sera being the one to help Piran escape and Beimnech noticing that. Beimnech being Super Old and Super Tired with so much bottled up Memories and Experience like the opposite of Talvish With a Purpose okay one day I will actually write a whole essay about their foils⁠—
Ultimately, Cethlenn is given the choice to be the watcher in the mists of Feth Fiada. He acknowledges his crimes* and so he refuses to exit (except on Samhain aka Saturday). He is openly antagonistic towards everyone except Marleid, which is understandable. He thinks he has tied Marleid down. Further conversations with him in Tech Duinn reveal that he’s pugnacious and as eager as Vayne once was to spar with the Milletian. He’s also very easy to bully. He implies that in the future, he may recover the powers he lost in his deal with Hymerark and will use those powers for the greater good so…more Cethlenn content in the future? Hopefully?
*what worried me the most at the end of G24 was that I could not see how he or Vayne could be redeemed. I would scoop them up in a heartbeat. But could my Milletian? Could the people of Erinn? Obviously not.
I know I brought up the concept of escaping predestiny and then dropped it like a hot potato so I’ll do some quick rundowns now of other examples. Enya realizing that she can have a life beyond just staying in her sanctum and caring for the Holy Flame, Piran gathering the courage to recognize his own existence is worth something,  Hymerark* realizing that there is no reason to continue to mess around with people and she can just observe. I’ve rewatched the conversation the Milletian has with Hymerark after the battle and I don’t even know where to start…Talvish remarked that she’s the closest in resemblance to Aton Cimeni’s will since she balances both freedom and chaos. Maybe these higher gods were never meant to have sentience or conscience because the moment they do, they make decisions and bam the whole world is a mess.
*the Milletian seem to do this to all the gods, huh?
My current understanding of things is that the Evil God Balor was created by Aton Cimeni as a counterpoint for Talvish, who is the Guardian, the sentinel of Erinn. Why? For Balance of course. But you can’t just create someone to be evil. Somewhere in between, Aton Cimeni stops answering and while Talvish plots machinations for the future he saw, Balor’s disdain for his role grows and eventually beefs it in a fight with Lugh at the battle of Mag Tuireadh. His body is dead, but his spirit remains, picked up by Hymerark to be the…plug stopping Noitar Arat. I imagine Hymerark also faced the same struggle that Talvish did of attempting to carry out duties imparted on them by their creator but yet new to independence and the weight of their responsibilities that now fell on their shoulders. Hymerark expresses her faint indecision of hearing the wishes of everyone. There will always be conflict in decisions.
Meanwhile, Talvish realizes that the balance has shifted in the absence of the Evil God Balor and so the events of G21 happen, where he attempts to recreate the balance with his own hands and summon something to replace Balor. While this fails, Hymerark tries to do the same again by corrupting the Milletian and making them the final obstacle to correct the unending cycle that, frankly, started because of her.
In G25 Part 1, Vayne mentions that Aton Cimeni will always have a solution. I suppose in this case, he was talking about how even if he were to disappear completely, someone will always take his place. Just like how Triona’s role was passed on to Millia, a new darkness grows. Not without repercussion, of course. Something is coming and that’s for G26.
In the final confrontation with Beimnech, he offers the Milletian a choice to either kill him now and escape, or perish together with him in the rift. He mentions that in the end, we are all forgotten anyway. I don’t think that is the case. The Milletian lives and the memories of everyone they’ve fought with lives with them. That is their burden. Not everyone can walk a righteous path. Sometimes, desperate individuals seek the wrong help and I like to think that the Milletian recognizes that it isn’t just black and white, and that they are fortunate to have found the right people. Things are just going to get rougher for the Milletian because they’re also a guardian of Erinn, which begs the question: who is the counterpoint for the Milletian? Does one even exist? Does there need to be one?
Instead of ending on such a gloom and doom note, I’ll go full circle and talk about Llywelyn again and his mentions of a sibling again? And also tea time?? 10/10 would fake date Llywelyn just for the court gossip. (LF > political intrigue comic ft. Milletian and Llywelyn dating like it’s 17th century France) Also Llywelyn being the next captain of the Elved Squad?? Tried to imagine him in Talvish’s armor and as I type this I realize they won’t do something stupid like that they’ll just change the emblem on his armor. Alright I think that’s it I’m hitting 2.3k words so—
Oh right something something the Aces go off somewhere again just as Hunter was going to say something…can we get a base for them please? So we can just visit them? So they don’t just pop in and out of the Milletian’s life? Thanks.
I’m about to get super sappy so readers, feel free to skip all of this. I’ve been playing mabi for about 11 years at this point and it has been a long ride. I didn’t start writing these rants and essays until G21 and I also started drawing in earnest about mabi around the same time with comics and fanart. I don’t participate much in the community as a whole because I am an anxiously overthinking person. It’s no surprise that I found comfort characters in mabi and so I return here again and again (not that I’ve ever really left). We’re getting a new game director after G25 and I am extremely grateful for all he has done for the game. And in the same vein, I’m thankful to all of you reading this. There’s no point in creating content when there is no audience, especially when I am as reclusive as I am. So, to my new readers: thanks for coming along. And to my old fans: thanks for sticking around. Until the next chapter!

Medley (pt. 2)
Summary: You’re a star swimmer on your high-school team, but so is Jeon Jungkook. What will this mean for your chemistry in and out of the pool?
Pairing: Jungkook x Reader Genre: Fluff, swimmer!jungkook Word Count: 1.8k
A/N: Tried to show a lot more of Y/N’s thoughts in this one, hope it’s not too uninteresting! I think the ending is so cringe and funny lolol I’m so sorry
The steam from your scorching shower followed you out of the bathroom, and you took the few steps you needed to reach your bedroom. There you picked up your hairbrush and slowly started combing out the knots that towel-drying your hair caused. You looked through your mirror and imagined Jungkook sitting on the couch behind that wall, watching a program on your TV, his doe eyes transfixed by the images moving on the large screen. He was probably watching a documentary on sea animals, knowing his obsession with the filmography typically portrayed in those kinds of programs. Or maybe he was watching a cooking show since he loved food and learning how to cook new dishes. You have learned these things about Jungkook over the past few years, as you’ve known him from freshman year until now, your last year in high school.
You considered blow-drying your hair and adding more damage to it after the chlorine from the pool. Deciding against it on top of being lazy, you threw it into a wet bun on top of your head. It was a little lopsided, but it was just Jungkook you were seeing, not the Queen of England. Reminded of the former, you looked at your post-workout outfit, leggings and a college T-shirt that ended where your leggings began. After pouting at your unimpressive appearance, you left your room to meet Jungkook.
The lanky, black-haired boy was leaning against the couch with one leg stuck out and the other tucked up to his chest. Like you expected, he was staring intently at the screen, watching some sea turtles glide through the water. The narrator’s serene voice seemed to be the only thing he heard because he didn’t turn around at the sound of your bedroom door closing.
You plopped down on the couch he was leaning against and fluffed his hair. It was almost dry since swim practice. The strands felt clumpy from all the chlorine, and the movement of his hair let the pool smell reach your nose. For some reason, you loved the smell of the pool. Good feelings and memories were associated with it, so it was a calming scent for you. It always made you think of competing and was even sometimes able to get your heartbeat racing. You got distracted from your brief reverie when Jungkook looked up at you from his spot on the floor with a mischievous look in his eye.
“Are you finally done?” he asked teasingly. You pushed his shoulder in response and smiled. While being playful, he still looked so innocent with his orbs for eyes. Moving to stand, he questioned, “Can I go now?”
You pointed to the closet doors next to the bathroom. “The towels are in there. You can use whichever one you want. Except the Lilo and Stitch one, that one is special.” Lilo and Stitch being one of your favorite movies, you felt particularly possessive over that towel and didn’t want anyone else using it. If someone did end up using it, however, you’d get over it, unless it was your little brother. A freshman in high school, Chris still did any tiny thing to rub you the wrong way, and it worked every time.
Jungkook chuckled, his bones cracking as he stretched his back. “All right, so I can’t use whichever one I want,” he contradicted. “Got it.” You watched him waddle over to the closet, pick a purple towel, and disappear into the bathroom. The water began running, and you turned your head to the TV to see a school of fish wandering around a reef.
It would be nice to be a fish in some ways. Always in the water, possibly friends with a shark, sleeping with your eyes open. But fish also have to deal with people without likely understanding what’s going on. Regardless of not having a complex mind like humans, it probably still doesn’t feel great having your home taken over by trash and nets.
Picking up the remote, you browse the selections on Netflix. It was always hard choosing a show to watch since you were very indecisive and struggled to commit to a program. A lot of time had passed, and you hadn’t even settled on a show when suddenly, a door behind you opened, causing you to look over your shoulder.
Jungkook was standing there, a towel wrapped haphazardly around his lean waist, his arm half-covering his chest. Droplets of water were falling from his damp hair onto his broad shoulders, running down his torso toward the top of the towel. He cleared his throat awkwardly.
“Sorry, uh, I forgot my clothes.” He walked toward you and picked up his bag, digging through it to locate fresh clothes. You realized you had been staring, so your head snapped to the TV to see that you had accidentally clicked on a show involving a dessert competition. Straining to look interested in the pies that had just been introduced, you felt your heart beating in your ears and hoped he didn’t hear it too.
He found what he was looking for and trotted back to the bathroom, locking the door behind him. Sheesh, what does he think I’m going to do, just barge in there? you thought to yourself. The pastry chefs on the TV began talking about what they would put in their pies, which made you lose your train of thought, focused only on desserts.
The now-clothed boy joined you on the couch this time, dressed in black sweatpants and a loose white T-shirt. No matter how dressed down he was, Jungkook could make anything look good. After getting himself comfortable, he grinned. “Can I stay and watch some TV with you, Y/N?”
Jungkook sometimes hung out with you at your house, whether you were having a meal, playing games, listening to music, or watching TV. He got along well with your parents, so you didn’t think it would be a big deal if he stayed today as well.
“Have I ever said no to you, JK?” you joked, crossing your arms.
Jungkook’s face scrunched up as he thought about it. Honestly, there weren’t many times you said no to that kid. Every time you played Ultimate Ninja Storm, he got to play your favorite character, Sasuke, while you got stuck with someone who wasn’t your main. When you were showing each other music, he often had more turns than you did, getting to jam to his songs more than you could listen to yours. When your dad was cooking steak, Jungkook got the second-biggest cut (after your dad, of course). When you watched TV together, he always picked the program, which was actually okay with you, since you never knew what to watch anyway. Needless to say, Jungkook couldn’t come up with an answer and just shrugged, to which you stuck your tongue out.
“I’m sure there are things you would say no to,” he said. “Like, ‘Wanna race me in fly?’”
Your jaw dropped in mock horror. “First of all, how dare you say that word in my house. Second of all, that’s not even my stroke! Beat me in breaststroke, then we’ll talk.”
A lot of your banter revolved around swimming since both of your lives were so centered around it. You’d met on the day of the tryouts for the swim team, both nervous for what had turned out to be a piece of cake. The two of you had gotten to know each other since you were placed in the same lane with many of the older swimmers. Even at a young age, fresh to the high-school swim team, you were still respected by your senior teammates. Thankfully, there wasn’t an atmosphere of jealousy or envy but of teamwork despite the age differences between you and Jungkook and the veterans in your lane.
Jungkook’s face lost the playfulness it held moments ago. He looked at you with an intensity that you only saw at swim meets. His fingers were playing with the hem of his shirt as he looked between you and the TV, which had turned into mere background noise. His eyebrows came together, and he let out a breath through his nose. After seeming to ponder something for what seemed like an eternity, he spoke. “Would you say no to being my girlfriend?”
Your senses seemed to falter then. You could no longer hear the pastry chefs worrying about the time they had left to complete the challenge. You couldn’t feel the remote still in your hand. You couldn’t see the rest of your living room in your periphery. All you could see was Jungkook, your teammate, your best friend, sitting cross-legged in front of you on the couch, staring at you with a nervous look on his face.
You looked down at your hands in your lap, wondering how to even respond to a question like that that came out of left field. “Well…I think my dad would feel differently about a boyfriend being here unsupervised,” you blurted out. Dumbass, you mentally scolded yourself. “What I mean by that is…I don’t think I’d say no…” you said slowly, looking up from your lap.
In the span of a few seconds, Jungkook’s expression went from nervous to blank to smug. A sly smile crept over his face. He leaned closer toward you. “So that means…?”
You rolled your eyes, a common occurrence when Jeon Jungkook was around. If you dated him, would your eyes eventually roll out of your head? Laughing at both the thought and him, you nodded your head and assured him, “Yes, I’ll be your girlfriend.”
At this, he shot up from the couch and did a little dance, swinging his hands above his head and spinning in a circle, his eyes closed and his smile showing brightly. After a few spins, he came to a halt in front of you, towering over your small form on the couch. Jungkook leaned down and took your hands from your lap.
“Y/N, we are finally going to be the swim team’s power couple.”
“Oh my god, I say I’ll be your girlfriend, and all you can think about is being a power couple on the swim team?!” You beat your closed fists against his chest lightly, and he grabbed them, holding them tightly in place. He took the opportunity to quickly close the space between you, his lips touching your forehead for a moment. Immediately, your stomach did backflips, and you tried to control the smile on your face before he pulled away.
“Did you mishear me?” he asked, sitting back down next to you on the couch. He took your hand in his. “I said the swim team’s power couple.”

my natal chart
Alright I’m going to post a chart that honestly confuse the heckoroni out of me. I used the site natal chart to get a basic idea. Luckily the site explains what all the numbers and symbols mean uwu. I know I’m a fake witch.
Tumblr media
BASIC SUMMARY OF ME THAT I COPY AND PASTED FROM THE SITE
I’m going to review it later and repost what I feel is accurate and isn’t accurate. This is a long list I know
Birth Chart
The Sun is in Cancer
Sun in Cancer natives have a strong survival instinct. They are protective of those they care about, and of themselves too. They are often quite reticent about sharing their inner selves to the rest of the world, and are often caught up in reminisce. Cancers have a reputation for moodiness, although this trait is most evident when the Moon is in Cancer. Cancer needs roots. They resist change to an extent, and concern themselves about being secure and safe in most everything they do. Cancers can be quite intrigued by objects with history attached to them -- antiques, photos, souvenirs, and the like.
Cancer is a very sensitive sign, and they don't always appreciate it when you are blunt with them. Their reactions to hurt will depend on how thick a shell they have developed. Most Cancers react by withdrawing or retreating. Some have developed an ability to manipulate others to get what they want. They avoid direct confrontations almost as a rule. Cancers are, in fact, quite yielding and soft when you have them in the right mood. They are one of the more hospitable signs of the zodiac. Sure, they can be touchy and indirect, but they are also very dependable, caring souls.
Short description:
She weighs words carefully and can be tenacious. A calm and discreet nature, tender, thoughtful, sensitive, and impressionable.
Possible issues: She is humble, timid, changeable, indecisive, lazy, or over-sensitive. Easily influenced by the family and sometimes manipulative.
Cancer with ascendant Leo
She projects a strong image, which hides a sensitive and emotional character. Very noticeable and intriguing demeanour.
Sun in XI: The Sun is in the eleventh house
You are a humanitarian who aims to treat everyone as equals. You seek to be unique and original, and you do your best to avoid bias and prejudice. Social status is less important to you than belonging to a group of diverse personalities. Your identity, in fact, is somehow linked to a larger unit than yourself. You have high hopes and goals, and tend to look at life in terms of opportunities. You have magnetic appeal, as people sense your broad tolerance and openness. The friendships you establish are crucial to your development. If you identify too much with your friendships and your friendliness, you may become too impersonal and alienate those who would like to get close to you. Successful career thanks to support of patrons, friends or relations. You are a leader in groups and people look up to you.
484 Conjunction between the Sun and Mercury
Because your ego and your mind are usually on the same page, you possess much mental energy. You are always in a position to think about what you want, and in many ways, this is an interruption of the will. You are highly intelligent with a great drive to communicate with other. You invest a lot of pride in your intellectual capacities. You may not always listen as well as you speak, however! You might be too busy thinking about what to say next. But you are very curious and although you enjoy expressing yourself, you usually don't dominate conversations completely.
As far as studying or learning goes, you are better off reading the material than listening to a teacher. These traits come from a strong need to take an active role in communications. It is very hard for you to passively listen and absorb information.
Your opinions are usually strong and you are an independent thinker. You tend to be proud of your opinions and thoughts, and might easily get a bruised ego if you are not "heard", if your opinions are pushed aside or ignored, or if your opinions are criticized. You are expressive and possibly a very animated speaker. You are also very witty and others enjoy your playful and sometimes mischievous sense of humor.
28 Trine between the Sun and Uranus
It is natural for you to question tradition. You are, above all things, an individualist. You naturally rebel against that which is established. It doesn't mean that you consistently break all the rules, but you definitely do question some of the rules, especially those that simply don't make much sense. You possess a huge distaste for routine. You work best when you have some say as to when and how you get things done. You possess much self-integrity. You avoid labeling people and are most offended when others attempt to label or stereotype you.
You easily embrace new ways of doing things, you stick up for the underdog, and you express yourself in unique and inspiring ways. You don't have to try to stand out as unique--you are original, creative, and progressive without trying. You are far from pretentious. You value honesty and truth, and you avoid putting on airs. You believe in the equality of people, and easily relate to people from all walks of life. You possess an unmistakable enthusiasm about life, and generally your life is interesting because you invite unusual or adventurous experiences into your life. You are generally appreciated by others because you are open-minded, fair, and not judgmental. Nothing really seems to faze you! You take things in stride, and are rarely shocked or taken aback by human behavior.
192 Conjunction between the Sun and Lilith
You are mostly comfortable with the darker side of your nature. A student of human nature.
The Moon is in Leo
Depending on other positions in the chart, Moon in Leo people are not necessarily outgoing. When they feel comfortable, they do like being the center of attention. That is, they like being in the "spotlight" in the comfort of their own homes and with family and friends. They enjoy entertaining others, and often take on the role of comic. Lunar Leos often feel a need to organize, and even control, their families and friends. They have an inner mission to set things right, and generally like to oversee the goings-on in their little circle.
This is a rather creative position of the Moon. At the very least, Moon in Leo people want to create and entertain. They can be rather lazy at times, and a little bossy too. Generally, though, they have a deep need to treat others fairly and justly. Lunar Leos require lots and lots of love and care in order to function well in the world. When they feel slighted, these people can be dramatic in their emotional displays. When their pride has been hurt, they are given to big scenes and sulking. This rarely happens in public, however. Lunar Leos are far too concerned about their image to make splashy scenes outside the comfort of their own homes. In public, they prefer to take things in dignified ways. At home, however, they're given to big displays of emotional drama. These scenes generally don't last too long, however. Lunar Leos are often personally popular folk who are valued for their integrity and strong sense of justice. Generally, it is easy to reason with a Lunar Lion. Appealing to their well-developed sense of fairness usually works well.
Short description:
She is brave, knowing how to take risks and possessing the courage of her convictions, honest, imposing, and sharp. She has a great sense of, and respect for, justice. Organizational sense. Selectivity with friends but is not overly influenced by them. Taste for splendor.
Potential issues: changing and numerous affections. Emotionally demanding and proud. Brooding when attention is not forthcoming.
Moon in I: The Moon is in the first house
Very sensitive. Fantasizes. She is easily touched, moved, and affected; she is sometimes shy, prudent, and emotional.
Your feelings are right out there for everyone to see, and you can come across as emotional and impatient, or nurturing and caring (or both). Your first reaction is emotional, especially if the Moon is in close proximity (within ten degrees) of the Ascendant degree. You need emotional stimulation, movement, and freedom to express yourself in order to feel happy and fulfilled. Your moods are very changeable, and this can be quite obvious to others. Because of your emotional sensitivity, you might often take things too personally, and react too quickly. Developing an awareness that others' emotions are just as important, even if they are not as overt and immediate as yours, will be important.
319 Sextile between the Moon and Venus
You are generally amiable and project a soft and yielding manner. You possess natural charm and you are highly imaginative and sympathetic. You can make an excellent mediator and go-between. You are keenly aware of your need for relationships and for intimacy. You have a well-developed respect for qualities typically associated with the feminine. People appreciate you for your tender heart and friendly, diplomatic disposition. You should enjoy a good measure of personal popularity and success in your life. Although generally considered "lucky" with relationships and with money, this is less about luck than it is about a certain level of inner peace and positive energy that attracts pleasant situations. At times you can be complacent, downright lazy, and over-indulgent in the "pleasures" of life. However, you are a peace-maker at heart and have an unusual ability to help and heal others. You are gracious and warm.
She is gracious, sweet, happy. She especially enjoys pleasure and entertainment, the Arts. She needs tenderness. She appreciates home life in a comfortable, safe atmosphere more than most.
-120 Opposition between the Moon and Neptune
She may lack firmness, and can be a sucker for a sob story! She likes to live in a dream, in the world of imagination, and can hope so much for things that reality checks can be brutal.
110 Conjunction between the Moon and Ascendant
She has a good influence on the family, and the family usually gives back, loving and helping in return. She likes travelling, movement, change. She likes contact. open to other people. Very sensitive, observant, adaptable, likable, and somewhat of a chameleon.
Mercury is in Cancer
She communicates with feeling, endearing others with words. She is reflective and has one of the best memories around. She feels people out and can be quick to pick up emotions and moods. She is discerning and full of insight, lucid, and thinks things through. She likes to please and to create a good impression. There can be a strong tendency to be influenced by those around her.
Mercury in XI: Mercury is in the eleventh house
She has lots of friends. She likes intelligent, cultivated people around her with whom she can enjoy verbal sparring. She likes debates, interminable discussions. Often has friends who are younger, or friends come and go.
You are endlessly curious about people, group interactions, community affairs, trends, and teams. You are attracted to people who bring new ideas into your experience, and who have something novel to contribute on an intellectual level. You are very forward-looking and fair-minded. Fair play, impartiality, and unselfishness are important ideals for you. There can be many changes or fluctuations in your personal wishes, dreams, plans, and ideals. You might attract friends who come and go, or who are dishonest or duplicitous.
69 Trine between Mercury - Uranus
She is perspicacious, ingenious. She binds intelligence and originality together with genius. She likes literature, especially fiction. She is spontaneous in her friendships and knows how to turn situations around positively.
49 Conjunction between Mercury - Lilith
Can be provocative in speech or communications, persuasive, interesting conversationalist, quick to see the flaws of a situation.
Venus is in Gemini
Venus in Gemini people will try to win over the object of their affection with witty conversation, displaying just how much they "know," and demonstrating their diverse interests. These lovers are playful -- some might even call them a tease. They are hard to pin down, and they resist relationships that promise to become too "comfortable." Even those with their Sun in Taurus or Cancer, whose outward demeanor may suggest some reserve and caution, will want their relationships to be stimulating and full of conversation with Venus in Gemini. Venus in Gemini people don't want to be tied or bogged down in their relationships. They appreciate lightheartedness in love. Although they are willing to talk (perhaps endlessly) about the relationship, you may get the feeling that they gloss over some of the deeper issues. In love, their tastes change often, and it can be hard to know what to expect from one day to the next (or, sometimes, from one hour to the next!).
Pleasing Venus in Gemini involves supporting their need for fun and variety, showing interest in their brainpower and knowledge, and giving them space for friends and activities outside of the relationship. Let them know just how much fun you have with them. Try not to get overly miffed by Venus in Gemini's changeable, fickle ways. Remember that time spent with your lover will be exciting and invigorating.
Venus in XI: Venus is in the eleventh house
Successful professional life in great part due to good relationships, friends or patrons. She finds love in the circle of friends.
The friendship level of your relationship needs to be genuine in order for you to sustain romantic interest. You tend to focus on a person's unique qualities -- those traits that make him or her stand out -- as the most attractive. Your relationships must possess some kind of unconventional element in order to keep your interest levels high. Calves and ankles are either erogenous zones for you, or parts of your body that are particularly attractive! You may meet lovers through group activities. Although you value friendships and group affiliations highly, you might jump into friendships without considering the responsibilities they might entail.
-69 Square between Venus - Jupiter
She is nonchalant, perhaps pretentious or self-important. She likes what is beautiful and sometimes ostentatious, perhaps spending money too quickly at times. She likes to please and can have numerous amorous adventures. She can undergo tribulations in love. May take things to excess, which sometimes interferes with a smooth flow.
She is big-hearted and warm, with an open heart and a tendency to want to give a lot to the people she loves. She can have some problems with following through on her promises, however, not usually because of any ill intent, but because she sometimes overestimates her personal capabilities, wanting to do more and give more than is actually possible. She may have a tendency to live beyond her means. She needs to be cautious about the tendency to feel overly-optimistic or overly protected. Moderation is the most important, and perhaps challenging, lesson in her life.
-29 Square between Venus - Uranus
She may look for new sensations in love and might often feel unsatisfied by connections that quickly turn into purely conventional relationships. She likes novelty, adventure, the eccentric. She is frivolous, unstable, or inconstant. Marriage is not usually for her and, if she does throw herself into this adventure, it may eventually be considered a youthful mistake. There can be numerous love affairs or off-and-on relationships. There is a tendency to react spontaneously and intensely to others, and there is marked emotional impulsiveness. Perhaps her most successful relationships are unconventional ones. She may delight in defying convention. She has considerable romantic charm and humor. There can be sudden relationship status changes, and a marked inner craving for emotional excitement.
44 Trine between Venus - Neptune
Her professional life can be creative or inconstant. She has a taste for the Arts, can be a dreamer, and may be easily influenced and romantic. She is emotional and very sensitive.
Romantic, creative, gentle, and adaptable, you naturally express the finer qualities of mysterious and dreamy Neptune in your love relationships. Your imagination is rich and your fantasy world well-developed. You are turned off by rudeness and crudeness, and are drawn to beauty in its many forms. You are very giving and generous, but may be a little on the submissive side, or sometimes downright lazy, failing to take the initiative when situations call for it.
Mars is in Cancer
This position inclines toward passive-aggressiveness. These people seem to resist change and to shy away from direct confrontations. They need to feel secure before they act. As a result, they can appear rather slow at times. Their motto is "The best offence is defense". They may appear weak to some, but they can be very strong. Their strength lies in their tenaciousness. Their sex drive can be very tied up with emotional need. At their best, they turn others on with a protective, almost therapeutic way about them. The protective nature of Cancer is best expressed when Mars in Cancer natives are turning the energy outward -- when they are being the protectors of others. Turning it inwards is when there are problems. They must avoid over-sensitivity and self-protection when it comes to sex. Some Mars in Cancer people are especially turned on by the thought of creating a baby.
These people are threatened by indifference. They can be argumentative and manipulative. Their energy levels are variable, and they can appear to move rather slowly. They have defensive reactions and bursts of emotional displays when they feel cornered. With reassurance and confidence, these natives are protective, helpful, and dependable in the long haul. They prefer to handle situations peacefully and humanely.
Mars in XII: Mars is in the twelfth house
So much of her energy goes into working life. She loves research. She could be a lab worker, doctor, police officer, teacher specializing in hospital, prison or hospice work. She can be indirect and very private. Rich dreams and fantasies.
With Mars in the twelfth house of the natal chart, you can struggle with asserting yourself in direct, natural ways in your youth, but with time and experience (and perhaps some hard work), you're likely to learn to work with this energy rather than allow it to work against you. Watch for a tendency to feel defeated before you've given something a real shot. You are extraordinarily resourceful, and you can handle many things on your own or in uniquely creative ways.
Though you may have a great deal of energy and drive, you lack confidence or the desire to put yourself and your interests first. Positively you can be very unselfish, working more on behalf of others than for yourself. You deny your own desires and needs too much, however, and you are likely to secretly become very angry, which can sabotage your finest efforts. There is a touch of the incurable romantic in your nature. Your daydreaming and fantasizing world is rich and precious to you. You also bring imagination into your sexual relationships, although you can take a bit of time to feel comfortable and to warm up to a new person in your life. Overcoming a vague and persistent feeling of guilt or doom can go a long way towards a healthier, happier approach to the pursuit of your desires.
54 Conjunction between Mars - Ascendant
She is energetic and direct.
-12 Square between Mars - Midheaven
She might suffer professional setbacks through actions that are too impulsive, imprudent, or lacking in forethought.
Jupiter is in Virgo
She attracts the most good fortune when she is helpful, honest, orderly, and pays attention to details. The service industries, nutrition, and health are prosperous avenues. Practical and technical knowledge and skills are most valued. A real problem-solver and others appreciate her help. Doesn't always feel lucky or especially ambitious. Rather, hard work is valued.
Jupiter in II: Jupiter is in the second house
Easygoing over money matters, no credit problems, this placement tends to increase her inheritance. She earns good money often without too much effort. She fully enjoys what she has.
43 Sextile between Jupiter - Saturn
She is serious, patient, honest, hard-working, orderly. Her judgment is good and she is inclined to think things over. She pursues her objectives to the bitter end, usually knowing when to choose the right moment. She is upright, usually law-abiding and respecting order.
-46 Opposition between Jupiter - Uranus
She is too independent for her own good at times, and her liberty is all-important. She may lack diplomacy, and her extravagance can be shocking to some! She likes verbal battles and may espouse extremist ideas to shock her companions. She can have a number of internal tensions.
Saturn is in Cancer
May feel fundamentally unloved and unsupported, but can miss opportunities to receive support because of the basic attitude that she isn't going to get love.
Saturn in XII: Saturn is in the twelfth house
She likes quiet and solitude above everything. She seeks work (or can work) alone, without being bothered. She is too easily distracted or bothered by chatting, outside noises.
1 Trine between Saturn - Uranus
She knows how to be on top of the situation. She perseveres, is determined but ingenious and original. She is very practical. She proceeds slowly, but is always bound to achieve her objectives in the end.
Uranus in Pisces
She is receptive, subtle but can reveal herself when asked to become involved.
Uranus in VIII: Uranus is in the eighth house
She is interested in antiquity, archaeology, history. Her financial situation has its highs and lows, which an inheritance can help out.
Neptune is in Aquarius
Generosity, especially enjoying resolving problems in order to satisfy everyone.
Neptune in VII: Neptune is in the seventh house
Partners for love, to show the depth of her passion, but may have a troubled conjugal life if the cards are not on the table.
Pluto is in Sagittarius
Great aspirations: sexuality and love are idealized.
-10 Opposition between Pluto - Lilith
She may lead a double life. She may have a secret love affair but the secret doesn't last, or at the very least there are complications. Otherwise, this aspect can point to scandals whether or not they are real.
5 Trine between Pluto - Midheaven
She can pour much of her energy into succeeding professionally. She is an authority figure and a great organizer. Strong sense of authority.
Lilith in Gemini
She can feel uncomfortable if speaking too much or too little, or for her intelligence or social skills. She may be wary of people who seem to be indulgent in these ways -- who are social butterflies or who talk too much or who seem to flaunt their intelligence. Her curiosity may have been stifled in some manner. Owning and accepting this side of the nature can be empowering. She can be wicked with what she says when angry! Shame in these areas can lead to extremes of behavior and a feeling of being out of control. Working on self-acceptance is the key to empowerment.
North Node in Taurus
She is brilliantly perceptive and easily gets close to someone. However, the tendency in the first half of life is to define her worth or value through her relationships and to be too wrapped up in others' needs at the expense of her own. Lessons are learned the hard way. Confusing and intense life situations come at the cost of comfort and peace. Her path is to discover and embrace her own values and to establish her self-worth through her own efforts. She should aim to enjoy life's quieter moments while blocking the subconscious need to create crises, as this is the way to improved relationships and greater satisfaction. Qualities to develop: patience, self-sufficiency, restraint, disengagement.
North Node in X: North Node in the Tenth House
She is sympathetic and kind, preferring to stay childlike and free. She may resist labels, responsibility, the limelight, recognition, or "growing up," but over time, this limits her growth. Qualities to develop: ambition, commitment, responsibility.
Cancer with ascendant Leo
She projects a strong image, which hides a sensitive and emotional character. Very noticeable and intriguing demeanour.
Ascendant is Leo
Leo rising people cannot help but be noticed. They radiate a special energy and magnetism that gets others' attention. Sometimes it's because they are loud people who pay a lot of attention to their personal appearance (especially their hair!); other times it's due to a regal manner that simply demands interest from others. Leo Ascendant people are very self-aware and body-conscious. They are acutely aware of others, and how they come across. In fact, these people are especially aware of their personal "backdrop"--they consider what the people they're with, and the environments they are in, do to their own image. Often, Leo rising natives feel as if they are on stage, even in the privacy of their own homes! They are given to rash decisions, temper tantrums, and excesses. However, they have plenty of staying power, drive, and their idealism keeps them from getting into too much trouble. The desire to oversee the goings-on in their circle can sometimes amount to bossiness. If this desire doesn't go too far, however, it can just mean a person who wants to make sure the people they love are all right. Many Leo rising people are managers, either by profession or character.
The tendency to overestimate things, and themselves, is generally present. This is due to a natural enthusiasm and optimism about any new undertaking. Sometimes, they are walking commercials. In fact, Leo rising people make excellent promoters. Leo rising people are generally demonstrative, and given to grand gestures. Drama comes naturally to these natives. In fact, some are so caught up in fiction, they're a little blind to fact. They have an unusual need to be admired. Leo Ascendants often have a strong physical constitution. They pay special attention to their personal appearance and mannerisms. Usually, they choose clothing and hairstyles that are youthful. Their manner is authoritarian and strong. Very full emotional life.
No matter their age in real-world terms, Leo rising people are kids at heart. They are fun-loving and warm; generous and spirited. Just how magnanimous and outgoing a Leo rising individual is will be modified by the placement of the Sun by sign and house. This is because the ruling planet of a Leo Ascendant is the Sun. For example, a Leo rising person with Sun in Virgo may not come across as strongly as a Leo rising person with Sun in Aries. No matter the placement of the Sun, however, Leo rising natives are quite self-aware and optimistic. They have a natural flair for presentation, an eye for quality, and a hard-to-resist warmth of style. They want to make things happen, and create a stir.
House II - the second house - is the area of material security and values. It rules money and personal finances, sense of self-worth and basic values, personal possessions.
Leo on House II
Financial success will be very easy thanks to the support of influential people. Tendency to spend more than what is earned. Financial progress is slow but steady. Generous with loved ones and children. Sign and house placement of the Sun may show money-making channels.
Virgo on House III
She may pull everything to pieces, analyzing, criticizing. Over-thinking and over-analyzing is probable. A busy early environment. She is proactive, tending to details and taking care of things in an efficient manner. Usually won't take on anything without examining the pros and the cons. She is very careful, sometimes to a manic extent, taking everything into account even to the slightest detail. Can be a worrier and fretter.
Libra on House IV
The simple life or the small home isn't for her. If money is a problem, she can be frustrated, wanting luxury or comfortable and beautiful things. Will spend on home more lavishly than other areas. Likes luxury goods to make life comfortable, going out, cocktail parties.
Scorpio on House V
Can get blinded by and drunk with love: everything revolves around her love. Her passions run deep, exclusive. Quarrels can result. Fertile love life.
Capricorn on House VI
Can work hard, unceasingly and patiently. Weak point: the cold, changes in temperature.
Aquarius on House VII
A slightly hasty marriage is possible. The relationship between partners will be very friendly and full of understanding. Both will love their independence, their freedom of action. If one refuses to give this to the other while insisting on it for themselves, problems ensue.
Aquarius on House VIII
An unexpected inheritance.
Pisces on House IX
She likes sea cruises. She has brilliant ideas that seem to come from nowhere.
Aries on House X
All the leadership qualities are there: authority, energy, initiative, leadership, lots of gung-ho, and of course intelligence.
Taurus on House XI
She likes to be surrounded by frank and good-hearted friends. These friendships don't stand on ceremony. She carries out everything she takes on surely, composedly, and calmly until successful.
Cancer on House XII
Problems seem to only come from the family.

ANYWAYS. i’m salem, i’m twenty - three, and i live on the east coast. i use 𝑡𝘩𝑒𝑦 / 𝑡𝘩𝑒𝑚 pronouns. currently i’m hyperfixating on true blood ( oops ) / the southern vampire mysteries. i love horror, and my favorite holiday is halloween ! my favorite scary movie is either scream or halloween ( i love michael myers too much ), but my favorite movie is jurassic park. yeah, i’m the dinosaur kid.
𝐎𝐍 𝐓𝐎 𝐃𝐄𝐌 𝐊𝐈𝐃𝐒. :)
𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓, we have caroline crane. faceclaim is crystal reed, babie. she’s thirty - three, unmarried & ( mostly? ) single. she’s a nurse, she had a not - great engagement, and now she’s in a little bit of a downward spiral. she has a MEGA crush on a good guy friend, but was sleeping with another guy because who knows how to be happy ? not caroline ! she’s gonna be so unprepared for zombies, since she can hardly handle her love life. she has an older sister who’s married & her brother - in - law’s brother is a security guard. glorified mall cop, if you will.                   𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐏𝐋𝐎𝐓𝐒 :                     🌟 her sister. they have a relatively close relationship, but her sister was always liked a little - bit - more than caroline was, solely based on the fact that she was more outspoken. which is surprising, since they were raised in the south in mississippi. their parents died when caroline was fourteen, and they moved in with their aunt in washington, which is where they both live now (:
𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐃, we have chelsea czerny. ( heads up for trigger warning in backstory : abuse, alcoholism, r*pe ) yes, she’s named after noah czerny from the raven boys. her faceclaim is constantly changing because i’m indecisive, but right now it’s olivia dejonge. she’s twenty - two, has her own love life issues, and is a store clerk at camelot’s music. the shop across is where her best guy friend and long - time crush julian works, and she’s stupid and in love with him. can’t wait for her to experience the wonderful world of finding out her best friend slept with him ! :zany: anywho, chelsea didn’t have a great life. she was born in louisiana, but her folks moved to washington when she was four. she’s the youngest of five girls, and her parents wanted a boy, so she was chucked to the side unless she was being her dad’s punching bag. her mom was an alcoholic like her dad, and while her mom never laid a hand on her, she didn’t do anything to stop her dad and so of course chelsea resents her. her sisters tried their best to shield her, but she’s five years younger than the next sister, and thus they weren’t always around. she had a stint in a mental hospital, but then cps let her go home to the family because they’re big dumb. she also had an awful experience at a party her freshman year of college, where she was drugged and date - raped, so she’s very selective with who she allows physical contact from. she’s my saddest and most damaged character and honestly she deserves better !                 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐏𝐋𝐎𝐓𝐒 :                    🌟 a family member. i’ve always wanted to see one of her parents in the group, but it’d also be nice to see one of her sisters ! easy to cast for, since she’s blonde. if you’re interested, we can definitely go into more detail, but for the sake of keeping it short ( since i put a broad connection ) i’ll leave it here.
𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐓 𝐁𝐔𝐓 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐓, we have malachai knox. his faceclaim is joe manganiello ( i had to have a least one true blood actor, right ? ). he’s thirty - five, almost thirty - six, and he’s also a nurse. he ALSO has romance troubles - in love with his best friend of over twenty years who’s daughter he also raised. they have a complicated history, it’s fine. grew up in chino, they moved to washington after ava was born, and they’ve been living there since. everyone calls kai a simp, which i GUESS he technically is, because he’d do anything for odette. BUT THAT’S BECAUSE HE LOVES HER. gross. there was a time in his mid - twenties where they weren’t living together ( he was living with his ex - girlfriend, who wasn’t an ex at the time ), but THAT was a whole mess. homegirl was emotionally manipulative and manipulated him constantly into hurting her, which wasn’t great. he eventually got out of the situation and moved back in with odette, good for him. maybe.                𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐏𝐋𝐎𝐓𝐒 :                   🌟 friends. he needs friends. he’s only got odette’s friends, who are great, but he doesn’t really have any friends of his own, and he needs them. could be from any walk of life !
𝐒𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓'𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐈𝐓𝐂𝐇. if you’re interested in plotting, please hit me up because i love plots. so much. and i’m always open to more ideas than the wanted plots i put, since i’m not super creative on the fly and can’t think off the top of my head that often. my discord is salem witch trials.#0666, so feel free to shoot me a message, and we can vibe !

RUNE JUNE: DAY 3 - Consulting the Runes Part 1
Today I'm going to look at what to ask the runes and how to draw a spread. I'm not going to get into meanings, as each rune will get it's own day later in the month. Following on from yesterday’s post, I'm going to use ‘Oracle’ as a catch-all to refer to wherever you feel your rune wisdom comes from, whether it's deities, spirits, ancestors, the Higher Self etc. 
Can I only do readings for myself?
That largely depends on individual belief, mainly related to where you feel the runes’ knowledge comes from. Some people feel that the runes only allow you to access your inner intuition, in which case readings would be much less reliable when reading for someone else, as you won’t know every detail of the situation. Personally, I do readings for other people and even those I don’t know particularly well have said that they find my readings accurate. When discussing reading for someone else, I use the term ‘querent’ to refer to the person I’m drawing on behalf of. Readings for others can be a great way to get to know the runes and their meanings, as when pulling for yourself all the time you tend to pull the same runes which apply to your current situation. 
TL;DR - No.
What should I ask?
The first thing to know with the runes is that the thing you want to talk about won't always be the thing your Oracle wants to talk about. Sometimes it's because you're dwelling on something that's best moved on from, there's something more pressing to tackle, you're asking about things the Oracle doesn't know about or you've ignored their advice on the topic too many times and they're sulking about it. To avoid the frustration this causes, I now ask the runes if I can do a reading before I start (using the yes/no method explained below). I use the following questions in this order: 
1. Can I do a reading now?  2. Can I do a reading for [X]? 3. Can I do a reading on [topic] for [X]? 4. Can I do a [reading type] on [topic] for [X]? 
It may seem unnecessary, as you could just skip to question 4 and get a yes, but I've been turned down often enough that I've learnt going through it this way helps identify the problem quicker, if there is one.
Unless you’re using the yes/no method (explained below), it’s best to keep questions broad. ‘What do I/the querent need to know’ is where I usually start from and you can add on a time period (today, this week, this month etc) or a topic (about work, my relationship, my family, my health etc).
For a spread, I tend to say “This is a [reading type] spread for [querent] about [topic]” (if there is a topic) while shaking or handling the runes, and then concentrate on the question/aspect of the issue that I’m drawing. 
There are some ethical matters to consider - mainly whether it’s okay to draw runes about someone else without their knowledge. It’s generally considered bad manners, and many rune readers will refuse to read for someone else if you ask them to. Even if they were willing, it may be difficult to focus on a person they don’t know and aren’t in the presence of. Some people may ask the runes if it is okay to pull on behalf of a friend who hasn’t and possibly can’t give express permission at that moment. Where relationships are concerned, wording can help overcome this. “Do they love me?” is very specific and relies on the Oracle being able to access the partner’s feelings. “What is in store for [querent]’s relationship with [partner]?” is broader and is likely to give you a good idea of the answer to the original question.
TL;DR - Keep your questions to broad topics (except for the yes/no method).
How do I choose a rune?
There's a lot of different variations when it comes to rune reading, and it's really a case of going with what feels right to you. Here's the different ways I've seen people use to select a rune, whether they're doing a simple question or a spread. Whichever method you choose, you should have your question, topic or querent firmly in your mind. Please note that these ‘names’ are just my personal ways of referring to the different styles, I don’t know if there’s any actual names for them.
🌸 Shake & Take: Give the runes a shake in their pouch and reach in and take a rune. Some people take the first one they touch, I like to get my hand right in there and feel around until one feels 'right'. I don't usually shake first, but move them around with my hand in the bag before choosing one. Sometimes when doing this, more runes than I was intending to take want to be picked. 🌸 Shake & Tip: Some people don't like to put their hand in the bag as they feel it disturbs the runes' energy, so will carefully tip out a single rune. This can be good for people doing readings for others and not wanting that person's energy on the runes, as they can see you're not choosing the runes intentionally by feeling the engraving. 🌸 Spread & Flip: Others prefer to lay out all of the runes face-down, mix them up and then see which ones it feels right to turn over.
TL;DR - I mean, just do what feels right to you.
Using the Yes/No method
This is useful when you’re feeling indecisive about something relatively simple or looking for a bit of clarification. Nine of the runes in the Elder Futhark look the same whichever way up you look at them, and the other sixteen can be reversed, also called merkstave. For the yes/no method, runes that are pulled merkstave indicate ‘no’ and runes pulled upright indicate ‘yes’. If one of the nine irreversible runes are pulled, I’ve most commonly seen it indicates you should ask again. In my experience, I have discerned that an irreversible rune can indicate one of the following:
💮 You weren’t concentrating on the question. Focus and try again. 💮 Your question wasn’t clear. Reword, making it more specific. 💮 Your Oracle doesn’t believe it is in your best interests to know at this time. Ask them if that’s the case. 💮 Your Oracle doesn’t know, possibly because there are too many variables at this time. Ask them if that’s the case.
Although it’s not necessary, it can be worth noting which rune you pull as occasionally they’ll be trying to tell you something more than just yes/no, even if you make your intention clear.
About Spreads
So I’m not going to go into all of the spreads I use, because most are detailed on this handy website and I’d just be rehashing what’s there and taking credit for it. If I’m not sure which spread to use, I ask the runes using the yes/no method. Some of the spreads are well suited to asking a question based on a particular topic, and some are already geared towards a topic. Tarot spreads generally transfer well for runes, so you can make use of those too if it feels right.
While I don’t bother for yes/no questions, when pulling a spread I find it helpful to set the mood. For me, that means casting a circle, lighting a candle, maybe incense. I lay the runes drawn onto a cloth, in the shape and order indicated for that spread. You may see the same spreads laid out in a different order from one website to another, as some follow the modern western left-to-right method and others prefer the more traditional (for the runes) right-to-left method.
When pulling spreads, it’s sometimes recommended to pull a rune, note it down and then return it to the bag before drawing the next (slightly more difficult if you’re using the Spread & Flip method). This is so that you draw from the whole set each time, and runes have the chance to be pulled more than once if they are needed. When doing spreads for others, I provide an image of their completed reading. If returning the runes to the bag, I have to find them all again at the end and possibly edit two or more images together if the same rune is pulled more than once. To try and avoid doing this unnecessarily, I ask the runes if I should draw and return or draw and lay (using yes/no). To test the accuracy of this, I have sometimes returned the runes when they have said it wasn’t necessary. The results were that when they have said to draw and lay, I haven’t pulled the same rune more than once. When they said to draw and return (admittedly, doesn’t happen often), I have always pulled at least one rune more than once.
When interpreting a spread, it’s important to think about how they relate to their position in the spread as well as to each other. To work this out, I go through the spread in stages.
🌼 Write down the questions and runes with principal connotations (for me, that’s gender, element and deities). 🌼 Consider each rune in conjunction with it’s question and write down your initial thoughts. 🌼 Consider the Cycle of Initiation (which I will discuss on another day). 🌼 Check my favourite websites and jot down meanings that jump out at me, considering the questions. 🌼 Consider the story of the reading, looking for patterns, similarities and complementary sentiments in the different runes. 🌼 Take the principal connotations into account and finalise.
If I’m not sure about the meaning of a spread (usually when the Oracle has picked a different topic to what I asked about, or has taken things in a direction I wasn’t expecting) I pull a single rune, sometimes called a Rune of Clarification or Odin’s Rune. Yes/no questions can also be used for clarification, but for either method all runes should be returned to the bag first.
It’s a good idea to have a notebook where you can jot down your rune readings. It can be useful if you want to look back over a reading again after learning and increasing your understanding, and also for noticing patterns. There may be particular runes or themes which keep coming up that you may miss the importance of in a single reading. More ways to consult the runes will be discussed in Part 2 and 3.

Riding A Good Time
Tumblr media
Summary: Your day is a complete failure. Bad luck, bankruptcies and breakdowns accompany you. To relax you go to a well-known club to buy something very special. But a big, unfriendly man stands between you and your new world. Or maybe not?
Paring: DrugSeller!Bucky X Reader
Warning: Drugs, SMUT
Authors Note: This is the contribution to @youngmoneymilla writing assignment. Congratulations again for the 5.000! You will surely have doubled the number soon!
Based on the song “Ride A White Horse” by Goldfrapp
MASTERLIST
~*~*~
Wrong foot. Black cat. Broken mirror. Salt spilled. 13. Bad luck. Fate. You can call it that, but you don't have to. In any case it brings bad mood, at least to you.
The day starts almost an hour late - your alarm clock has died silently in the night and you owe it only to your inner clock not to wake up later. The next thing you must notice is that the night before you forgot to load the wet laundry from the washing machine into the tumble dryer. There are now two possibilities: either to wear the uncomfortable, sexy underwear and the much too tight skirt to work, or the comfortable, but damp ensemble. Worried about a bladder infection and the constant uncomfortable feeling of peeing in your panties, you'd rather choose the uncomfortable outfit.
In the restaurant you work in, things shouldn't get any better. Although your colleagues tried to hide your delay from your boss, he had somehow managed to get wind of your absence. He will gladly deduct the hour from your wages...
Around noon almost all the tables were occupied by hungry guests and you could hardly run as fast as people asked for you. Heavy trays of hot food, cold drinks and strong coffees were carried around by you. Despite the hustle and bustle, you managed to meet each guest with a friendly smile. All the greater was your disappointment when you counted the meagre tip. All that fake smile - for nothing!
At the latest at the evening business a thought slowly matures in you. A colleague had drawn your attention to the dissatisfied guests at one of your tables. Without "hello", "please" or even considering your person, they complained directly about the too warm water, the cold food and other little things. With pinched lips you apologize, knowing full well that this is only a bad trick to get a free dessert at your expense. But do you have another option than to take the order and pay for it? Hardly. What is 10 € against the danger of a cancellation?
With sluggish steps you can complete the last tasks of the day. Just tidy up and lock up and you'd finally be off work! The bad luck of the day and the stress of the day urgently needed a drain valve. It's hard to imagine how much worse your bad mood could get...
You open your locker with a sigh of relief. Move quickly and you could start into the evening. Hectically you search the small cupboard. Didn't you always have a T-shirt in here for emergencies? Deo, chewing gums, a thick pantyhose, a towel and felt hundreds of hair bands, but no T-shirt! Not even an old, sweaty one. You slam the door shut with a bang. And now what? A white blouse and black skirt were now inappropriate for your planned trip. In this outfit you have the charm of an incompetent undercover policeman. Inconspicuously, it's different...
Under the white blouse you wear only the uncomfortable, black bra. (Sad, if you consider that not even the one who gave you more tips.) Black skirt, black bra, black shoes... Your eyes fall on your black leather jacket, which you quickly put on in the morning. Actually, you only wear this gem at events, like a dinner or date, but on this cursed morning you just didn't find an alternative. Just wearing your jacket over your bra would be daring, almost obscene, but almost perfect for today's project. Plus, if you wear the jacket almost closed, you'd even keep a little self-respect.
With new self-confidence you leave the small restaurant and turn towards the city centre, towards the colourful lights and the pulsating life. Your goal is a rather unknown club, popular with those who really want to dance and enjoy the music rather than be in the spotlight. A small bonus of this special audience is the great choice of ways to create the evening. Well, you prefer to "ride a white horse".
The doorman looks at your outfit with interest but refuses to comment. That's right, you think bitterly. A sexist saying and you would have ripped his head off with cold anger. The evening is still young, so far there are only a few night characters at the bar and on the dance floor. But to your joy the person you are looking for is sitting at the bar: Sam Wilson, known as "the contact".
With a wide smile you cross the dance floor and slide onto the bar stool next to Sam. His dark eyes only wander briefly over your body, but then get stuck on your face. A broad smile lights up his face as he recognizes you. "Hello sweetie! Long-time no see. How's it going, how's it going?" Sam's good mood is directly contagious, and you give him a little smile: "I hope the day gets even better today". You wink briefly, but Sam understands you as well.
"Well, I'm sure I can do something," Sam's gaze is almost caring as he bends over to you. "I have a new boyfriend like that", his voice only a soft whisper against your ear, "Pale, dark hair, blue eyes, big - should shave again. Wears a hoodie and a denim jacket. Sits in the back of the VIP area and spreads bad mood." You shrink your eyebrows, but don't ask Sam any more questions.
The seller's description is not very friendly, but very accurate. You discover the unfriendly, badly shaved big man immediately. He sits on the red leather sofa, leaning back and his legs wide open, a bottle of beer in his big hand. Next to him sits Steve, a salesman you already know.
Deals are always the same: Sam sits at the bar or stands at the edge of the dance floor. If you want to buy something, you must pass him first. He checks everyone, filters out potential undercover cops and traitors before passing the serious buyers on to the sellers in the club. The sellers change regularly, sometimes even on the same evening. Steve, Natasha, Clint... Familiar faces where you've bought your Winniebago in the past.
Without waiting for an invitation, you settle down next to the tall man on the sofa. "Hi! Long-time no see, Steve!" "Hello little one. Well, how can we help you?" Steve's smile could come directly from a glossy magazine. "I had hoped you could send me to a beautiful new world?" Steve shoots another smile at you: "Of course, little one. My friend Bucky here will be happy to help you!
Your gaze wanders over to the tall figure next to you. Bucky, as you now know, apparently didn't look at you during the whole conversation. He briefly hits his thighs before he rises and leaves the small VIP area. A friendly smile to Steve and you follow his big friend. With long steps he crosses the club again. You have trouble following his fast pace, but at a door leading into the club's internal area, he waits for you. Like a gentleman, he holds the door open for you and you step into the narrow, dark corridor.
Goosebumps spread on your skin and you try to swallow the heavy toilet in your throat. Even if this is not your first purchase, you cannot suppress the growing restlessness in your stomach. "Why do you want to buy something?", the dark voice of Bucky makes you roar around, the eye brown pulled together. His dark, imposing figure is only a few centimetres away from you. The door has closed behind him and the only light in the entire hallway is a single, naked light bulb that creates long shadows.
Although you thought you always had a perfect eye on your surroundings and noticed every interest in your person, you didn't notice Bucky's piercing look. You weren't his first buyer, not even that night. Your whole figure amazed him. Although your outfit is sexy and provocative, you also radiate a certain elegance, with your upright walk and straight shoulders. Dark eyelids speak of a strenuous job, but your eyes sparkle in the colourful light of the spotlights - unlike the veiled eyes of the addict. But much more fascinated is the one of your skin: radiant, soft and a soft redness spreads over your entire chest. Bucky really had to pull himself together to follow the conversation between you and Steve and not stare at your exposed skin.
With a shrug you try to give him an honest answer: "I just... want to relieve stress, relax. The world around me... Feel..." "And for that you need cocaine?", his eyebrows rise and for the first time that evening you see him directly in his ice-blue eyes - his gaze seems to beat you right through marrow and leg. Again, you try to swallow the toilet in your throat before you answer: "It goes so faster. Easier. Cheaper." Another step and Bucky stand right in front of you, his own scent of tobacco, wood and sweet orange surrounds him. "More dangerous?" You wrinkle your nose and raise your gaze: "There are hardly any alternatives."
Bucky's hands hold your upper arms tightly, pushing you against the wall of the hallway. Your lips almost touch, your breath mixes. The blue of his eyes has given way to the black of his enlarged pupils. Is he on cocaine himself? Heroin? Or do you trigger this greedy, animalistic expression in him? "Should I let you feel the world? Bucky's voice is just a rough whisper, but you can hear his seriousness.
"On your knees', Bucky lets go of your upper arms, but his big body continues to press you against the wall. Bucky answers your indecisive facial expression again, this time more emphatically and louder: "On your knees! His piercing gaze and firm voice leave no room for interpretation. You press yourself firmly against the wall and slowly slide down it. Your knees land hard on the floor, you sit with your ass on your legs. His lap floats in front of the tip of your nose, a clear bump stretches out towards you.
Bucky quickly opens his pants and pulls them down with his underpants until his penis is free. You raise your eyes, blink through long eyelashes up to Bucky. The look out of your innocent, big eyes completely upsets Bucky. How could such a beautiful, elegant, immaculate woman have such a desire for something as dangerous and dirty as heroin? An almost animalistic grunt is created in Bucky's throat. He would show you a whole new world.
His big hand lies on the back of your head and before you can even protest, he presses your lips firmly against his limb that he is holding out with the other hand. Shocked, you open your eyes and try to push yourself away from him. But his grip on the back of your head doesn't let up. He keeps pressing his limb against you, stroking your lips with the glans. Intuitively you finally open your mouth, the pressure against your lips too compelling.
The top of his shaft slides in your mouth, bumps against your tongue. You gasp, but Bucky doesn't penetrate any further. Your teeth close around the tip of his penis - a second flickers the fear you might bite over Bucky's face. But you relax your jaw and Bucky can feel your warm, tight and wet mouth.
Slowly, you notice Bucky's very own taste. Salty, a bit bitter, but above all... primitive. An unknown feeling stirs deep in your intestines - a pulling, tingling sensation that slowly spreads inside you. Involuntarily your tongue flickers over the tip of his tail - the bitter, salty taste intensifies. You raise your eyes and look for Bucky's eyes. His gaze from his shining eyes is caught with yours. He had expected to see fear, disgust or disgust in your eyes, but instead your eyes are dark and expectant.
His long fingers begin to draw small circles on your scalp, confusing your long hair. Again, your tongue flickers, but this time it strokes his glans, feeling the soft and sensitive skin.  Bucky supports himself with his other arm against the wall and presses his hip towards you. Slowly you breathe in through your nose, relax your jaw even further and Bucky pushes his penis even deeper. His penis is even thicker swollen, now completely stiff. Your mouth gets wetter and wetter and you stroke the saliva over its length. The tingling in your body flares up - your head starts to fog. There are only the flames in you and the original taste on your tongue. Moisture spreads between your legs, your inner muscles cramp for nothing.
Your hand surrounds his tail just above his testicles, slowly letting your head slide back and forth until your lips touch your hand. Bucky exhales sharply - this isn't his first blowjob, but only you can make the world spin. Your tongue glides over his tail, you feel every protruding vein. A demanding sigh arises in your throat, the vibration shakes Bucky. He closes his eyes and moans; his long fingers massage your head. His face shines with complete bliss. You have never seen a more beautiful sight for which you are responsible. Through the closed door the bass of the music roars, pulsating deep in your chest, your belly, between your legs. More demanding you suck, closing your lips even tighter around Bucky's cock. His muscles cramp, the dark colours around him begin to shine. Presumptuously, your hand embraces his eggs. Your fingers begin to gently massage his sack, in rhythm with your lips.
Suddenly Bucky explodes - his abdominal muscles cramp together and his hot, bitter juice shoots into your mouth. His moaning makes you tremble inside, you swallow every drop like sweet nectar. His tail becomes noticeably softer after the last drop, but you keep your lips closed around him, looking at Bucky only through big eyes. He opens his heavy songs as if after a long, restful sleep. Your sight makes him shudder - you on your knees, your hands on his sack and tail, full red lips. But you have a glitter in your eyes, life, strength, hunger - rosy cheeks and confused hair. Pure ectasia.
Bucky takes a small step back and lets his tail slide out of your mouth. Saliva glitters all over his length and on your lips. You swallow the bitter taste, already now with the desire for more. You still stay on your knees, close to Bucky's crotch. He pulls up his underpants and trousers again, looks at your saliva like a hard-won trophy.
"Show me your new world again."

First off thank you so much for the request! Second, thank you for all the detail- it wasn’t too much at all! I hope you enjoy 💫
I ship you with: Shouji
Shouji, as we all know, is a big massive sweetheart. He’s reserved but caring, he’s a wonderful listener, he’s just the full package. Here’s some reasons why i ship it:
🐙 You mentioned how you were quite reserved and anxious. A part of me wanted to pair you with someone like kirishima/ kaminari for this but i feel like it would just be the perfect match for shouji. He’s quite reserved too, and i feel like y’all would find comfort in eachothers presence. I feel like he needs someone more quiet and you are just perfect for this
🐙 While he is a quiet boy, he seems like the type to enjoy a good lengthy discussion every once in a while- especially with the person he loves. Imagine you two just sitting in his hed talking about the way of the world like bro idek what you look like but i can tell this is an aesthetic
🐙 He’s a wonderful listener. And the fact that you’re also body conscious and stuff would let him express his love for you. He’d listen to you and take all the time to get to know you even when you’re distant
🐙 He also needs his space too so there would he no pressure to stay around eachother 24/7. Just little affirmations and sweet gestures to keep you both in love

The Pros and Cons of the Zodiacs: A Personal Opinion
Let me start off by saying this is just for fun, I love and admire each sign, good and bad qualities, please do not take offense to this list and remember that your Sun sign is only the surface of what you believe to be You, I will be listing these by my favorite elements !
Fire : Active, Creative, Assertive, Self-Regarding
Leo, the Lion, ruled by the Sun, the 4th house ruled by Creativity, a very demanding sign, admirable and courageous, Leo’s have a very luring personality that always makes me want to ask “why?”, they are resilient, they make excellent leaders and have a key to success in whatever it is they do, However, Leo’s can really let it get to their head, they can be overconfident and at times egotistical, letting their excellence get the best of them and may become to prideful to ask for assistance, like the other fire signs Leo’s can be very aggressive, learning to channel that aggression into love is what I believe will benefit a Leo through their life’s journey
Sagittarius, the Archer, ruled by Jupiter, the 9th house ruled by Philosophy, what I feel is one of the most magnetic signs in every meaning of the word, Sagittarius tends to be one of the most lucky signs, they have a charm to them, erotic, brilliant, philosophical and very optimistic, However they do have a tendency to over indulge in the luck and skill of the archer and can become hostile and carry a superiority complex or “God” complex, Sagittarius should work on finding a good balance between keeping their feet on the ground and their heads in the clouds 
Aries, the Ram, ruled by Mars, the 1st house ruled by Self, Aries are to me THE most fiery of the fire signs, they are cardinal signs so they tend to be very established and firm individuals, they are ruled by the face and body and i find they manifest that trait physically, broad and very attractive signs, they really do bring the heat, However an Aries can be very stuck in their bad habits and troublesome and may defy the ones who love and care for them, Aries to me embodies all things fire, but they must learn to take a step back and question their ways of handling their fiery energy, but since its such a creative and expanding sign it shouldn’t be too difficult. 
Earth : Dependable, Practical, Preserving, Materialistic
Taurus, the Bull, ruled by Venus & Earth, the 2nd house ruled by Money, Taurians are one of my favorite signs, trustworthy, honest, very intuitive signs and usually from what I’ve come across have a head of thick beautiful hair,  Taurians tend to carry very pure energy what I describe as a “Breath of fresh air” in conversation, they usually are very well rounded individuals and extraordinarily passionate in love, However, they are represented by the bull for a reason, they can be very stubborn, idle and can even be a bit of a bully when prompted, Taurians I find can be very hard on themselves when confronting their failures, they have a “Fuck It” tendency that usually leads them to trouble and eventually self destructive habits, Taurus needs to learn that nothing is forever and you cannot change what has already been done, but you can learn from the pain and forgive yourself as well as those who have hurt you, give yourself a break, take some of that weight of your shoulders, your independent nature can take you anywhere you want to go
Virgo, the Maiden/Virgin, ruled by Mercury, the 6th house ruled by Service, Virgos are one of the most intuitive signs ruled by the intestines, they are very analytical, social, people pleasing creatures, they love to see others succeed and they themselves love success, very organized in their heads and often times in their outside world, they make great bushiness persons due to their communication skills and keen eye for service and providing, However, Virgos can be very critical of themselves and the world around them and often times unaware of their own potential greatness, when hurt Virgos can become cold and untrustworthy, Virgos should learn that perfection is truly unattainable. Due to their helpful nature Virgos can stretch themselves a bit too far and become too involved in others personal lives while ignoring their own needs and desires, Virgo should know that the self should always come first if you truly want to help others, Virgo should also know that not everyone needs your criticism, allow your heart and head to catch up with one another.
Capricorn, the Goat, ruled by Saturn, the 9th house ruled by Career, Capricorn THE earth sign, very grounded individuals, adventurous minds, whimsical yet serious characters, they’re hard to upset , they take their work and passions very seriously and have a tendency to be very successful in whatever they put their minds to, However, Capricorns when not evolved can become very arrogant and bossy due to their drive for success, they are a sign that cannot be controlled, they tend to do the controlling since they are cardinal signs, Capricorns should learn that career isn’t everything, give yourself a break, it’s okay to work hard and want success, but everything will come in due time, they should learn to balance vulnerability and resilience
Water : Hypersensitive, Emotional, Inward-looking, Doubtful
Scorpios, the Scorpion, ruled by Pluto & Mars, the 7th house ruled by Death and Rebirth, Scorpios are one of the more solid of the water signs, fixed water, so unlike Cancer and Pisces they are intense in their ways of anger and love, they are fearless and determined and make very wonderful romantic partners once evolved, However, when a Scorpio feels as though they aren’t receiving the recognition they believe they deserve or when they simply do not trust you, they can become cunning, promiscuous and closed off, Scorpios usually get a bad reputation for being promiscuous, ruled by the sex organs and ruled by two very powerful planets, Scorpio is passionate in everything they do, Scorpio should learn to take life slowly, there’s no good in rushing emotions, its okay to feel, stop being so generous with your energy not everyone will accept it, be careful who you allow into your heart...not everyone will understand 
Cancer, the Crab, ruled by the Moon,the 4th house ruled by Home, Cancers are very pleasant, warm and comforting, emotional and heavenly, their presence always provides a sense of familiarity to me, the poet of the water signs, their lives very much revolve around family and friends, motherly and OH so caring! they love to feel needed, However, Cancers can become very moody if they feel as though they aren’t fulfilling their purpose in life, they can become possessive, pessimistic and suspicious of their surroundings and even of themselves, Cancer should learn that it’s okay to be emotionally sensitive, but grounding yourself is important as well, you live in a world of doubt and that’s okay, but don’t let the world make you cold, you are a moon child, warm and full of love, just be cautious of who you let in.
Pisces, the Fish, ruled by Neptune, the 12th house ruled by Self-undoing, Pisces are very intuitive, being hypersensitive is a very water sign trait, but to me Pisces takes it to another level, they are very inspired souls and always want to help, they make lovely friends and playful lovers, they always have a wide range of tastes never too specific, but it always is interesting, they’re quirky souls and almost mysterious, However, Pisces being the sensitive souls they are can become self-pitying, indolent..a true escape artist , Pisces can avoid drama and socializing like a bad cold, they can also become confused in their own heads, not knowing when something is too much or too little, Pisces should learn that it’s okay to take a break and escape from your own head from time to time, but don’t let that become paranoia...the world isn’t out to get you, you love and you love with your entirety, “ Once it has been lost, the Water of Life can only be found by wandering off the beaten path.” and like the water of life Pisces should learn some resilience.
Air : Free Spirited, Versatile, Self-centered 
Libra, the Scales, ruled by Venus, the 7th house ruled by Partners, Libras are very sensible, represented by the scales Libras tend to be very fair in their criticism everything they do they have reasons that may even come off as excuses to others, Libras are artistic souls with excellent taste in material items, like Aquarius they simply want peace and quiet in their life. They love to make people happy, However, in their drive to do so they may find it difficult to say “No” to some things, because they enjoy the nicer things in life, Libra can become self indulgent in spending money on material items. Like the other air signs , Libra is very indecisive and sometimes superficial, they really enjoy the beauty of life, but have a hard time grasping what it really is, Libra should learn that surface beauty doesn’t equal happiness, their charming personalities and sensible souls make them wonderful care givers, they should learn to balance their high energy with some meditation instead of window shopping, they should learn that there is always more than what they think they know, you are the scales so remember to ALWAYS be fair and cautious to those around you.
Aquarius, the Water-Bearer, ruled by Uranus, the 11th house ruled by Aspirations, Aquarius from my experience are either very calm and collected or very extroverted and eccentric, not to say that they cannot be both at the same time. Aquarians are Fixed signs , but being air signs as well they really cannot be pinned down, they are huge humanitarians and simply want whats best for everyone, they have very intellectual and deep minds that take a lot of patience and understanding in order to be trusted by Aquarius , they are very particular in love, true trend setters, However, Aquarius like Sagittarius can carry a god complex, they can become extremely irrational in their judgement and feel their way is the only way, when hurt they can become detached and aloof being able to shut off all emotions, Aquarius should learn that it is okay to get hurt, it does not make you weak, it may wear down elasticity, but once you’ve let go of resistance you will ultimately be free, it’s okay to be you, it’s okay to be different! you’re greatly appreciated! 
Gemini, the Twins, ruled by Mercury, the 3rd house ruled by Communication, Gemini’s, like their sister sign Sagittarius are VERY philosophical in nature, their minds tend to wander. Being an air sign they really do expand and use their knowledge to make the best life possible for themselves, they are excellent communicators, very humorous and optimistic, However, with all that knowledge and self awareness comes trouble and confusion, Gemini’s tend to be very moody and inconsistent, they are represented by the twins, so think of them as two souls morphing together and attempting to find balance in a singular vessel, for Gemini this can spell trouble since it can be tough for one to please two very different sous at the same time, this may make them deceitful, master manipulators and they often play victim, Gemini should learn that not everyone is like you, not everyone contains the depth that you desire, “ All that glitters is not gold”. Use your communication skills to your advantage Gemini, be patient with the growing process, going through with your actions is crucial to your inevitable success.

Blog Post 2 ll Decisions
      This time around was significantly more difficult to approach in that it was more than just picking a topic, but less than finality. I found that I had absolutely landed on researching Witchcraft, but the struggle between focusing on comparison, understanding, an exclusive concentration, or an inclusive concentration was the culprit of my indecisiveness. Ultimately, I have decided that, if only for a moment, I want to focus on the exclusivity of Witchcraft as it relates most to female witches or those who practice and identify as female. This direction was taken because I want to look mainly at femininity as it encompasses sexuality, feminism, nature, exploration, expression, and fluidity. I feel as though I will most likely reduce these focuses more as the research process continues, but as of now this is the goal most suited for my fundamental objective.       The assignment given to us led me to create this primary layout of goals and concentration: I am trying to learn about the femininity tied to Witchcraft and the exploration and exploration of sexuality, nature, and fluidity because, as a witch myself, these topics intrigue me and push me further into the knowledge, origin, and practice of Witchcraft from a contemporary and historical standpoint. Ultimately, I want to help inform others of Witchcraft not only as a practice, but in a religious context as well. I find the distinction between religion and practice to be different. Although everyone who practices Witchcraft does invest in the craft, not everyone sees it as a religious backdrop for their own lives.       While looking into this, certain subjects came up that I felt needed to be addressed more than others. Firstly, the distinction between Wicca and Witchcraft is necessary. Although some see them as the same, that is a broad statement to make and reduces each of their differences. These two terms and concepts are often confused for each other, or at the very least meddled together. However, not every Witch is Wiccan, and not every Wiccan identifies as a Witch. There are, of course, those overlaps and those must not be forgotten. Though, to put them into the same category, specifically in the presence of someone who sees them as distinct, can be considered insulting and should be avoided. Secondly, this research will focus on female presenting members of Witchcraft but will not exclude the existence of males. Males practice Witchcraft just the same as females, but in this case, a female perspective will be explored in a way that does not require or insist on a male’s experience. Next, the difference between religion and practice needs to be addressed. A religion includes consistent practice, or pursuit, where practicing often does not include the ideology that is included in religion. For example, one can meditate but meditating does not have to be religious for one as it is for another. The same goes with prayer, conjuring, and other forms of practice. The main disagreement between the two is the ideology the person practicing has. As with anything, this is a personal choice and a personal conversation. However, it does not reduce or dismiss any person from the customs of Witchcraft. Lastly, the misconceptions of Witchcraft should also be addressed. The media sensationalized and romanticizes alternative religions in a way that makes it harmful for those who practice. This type of representation is inaccurate and does not serve as a way to bring information, but rather as a way to glorify. Before someone decides to open themselves to these practices and what Witchcraft and other alternative religions or practices look like, these misconceptions should be understood and cleared.       This topic is still under development, but I have a general idea of what I truly find interest in. More than anything, I think it is most important for me to be able to dispel certain things and invite others. I need this to be an exploration of myself and my heritage while simultaneously providing information and outlook to those who are not on the inside. Witchcraft is powerful and I hope my work in this will be, too.
