naruto and hinata's blossoming relationship continues to progress...

preview.

he likes this game.  pretending like their relationship never went past professional matters in front of her other clients.  to them, he was just another man, looking to book with the beautiful pilates instructor at the best private studio in midtown. hanabi was off today, meaning that after hinata wraps up with her client here, she would be closing the studio for her lunch break. by herself. with no one else around. no one to…keep her company. and naruto knew that. as he watches her with fond eyes, his gaze also dips, roaming over what she had chosen to wear. a creamy, off-white zip-up to compliment the matching… orange …set. jesus.  “thank you! please book again soon.” “hai! thank you, hinata-sama. I'll see you later!” “okay!” hinata's gaze falls on naruto's as they - finally - are alone, her nails softly click-clacking away at her keyboard.  naruto saunters up to the front desk. “what’s up?” she sighs his name, “oh, naruto-kun…”  tilting her head up at him. “you didn't tell me you were coming!” “uhh, surprise?” hinata has not stopped smiling. she giggles like a schoolgirl as he leans over the counter, amping up the flirting on high. “I like that color on you.” blushing like one, too. “thank you, love.” “you know orange is my favorite color.” her eyelashes flutter, her teeth slightly dragging over her bottom lip. “I do.” “especially that shade…” he lets his eyes drop the eyeline. he could just eat her. “mmm…” “naruto-kun…” she looks around as if hanabi was about to walk right around that corner. “I'm at work,” she enunciates with a whisper. “you have lunch soon, don't ya?” the answer is yes. she glances at her clock. “I…I guess I do...” his grin spreads. “wanna spend it with me?”

Smutraiser trip report

Another repost of @sharkowskii's art for another announcement: we made it to $502 on Ko-Fi! Thank you so much for helping us go on our anniversary trip! ;_; Y'all may expect 10,040 words of filth sometime in the next couple of months. Have kid, ADHD, starting new job, etc. etc. etc.

Yesterday was our actual 10th wedding anniversary. I will ramble about it beneath the cut, and then show pictures from last week's trip. It'll be really cool c'mon lessgo

The whole day of our wedding was great. My crazy bachelorette party consisted of me, soon-to-be-husband, and a few college friends at my parents' house watching Crisis on Infinite Earths (fantastic) and then the original Night of the Living Dead (Mike hadn't seen it yet!). Then he went home and I slept at the house as an unmarried lady (in my old bedroom, no less) for the very last time.

Next morning, I brought our friends into the neighbors' yard to meet their golden retriever, Autumn. (We had standing permission to go over there without asking first, ever since we were kids.) The bad news was that there was a strange dog in the yard I hadn't known about; the good news is that Amber was also a golden retriever, and they were both absolutely besides themselves with joy at all the people coming to say hello. You could not ask for worse guard dogs. :D

The actual ceremony was lovely, too. We had it at a pretty bed-and-breakfast right on the river, complete with kayakers and cyclists waving and hollering wellwishes as they passed. I did have to book the whole thing at the beginning of the year: it was a nice outdoor venue, and no one in their right goddamn mind wants to be outside in Texas between March and October, so the dates got snapped up pretty fast. It was worth it! Instead of an aisle, I walked down an autumn-leaf-strewn path winding down to the lawn, and my one big bride-y splurge was that we had a harpist playing the main theme of Final Fantasy VII. You are correct to be jealous.

My biggest unsolicited advice (just ask my Discord friends) is to marry into a nice family. Shitty in-laws are absolute poison, but an extra set of people to love and support you? I can't even joke about how amazing that is, especially if you need as much support as Mike and I have. Everyone enjoyed the free margaritas, but no one misbehaved, and when the party broke up, I was happy to go up to the honeymoon suite instead of any of the after-parties--it was mostly my family, but his was also invited, and I think a couple of his cousins accepted, cementing cordial relations on all sides.

How was our wedding night? Weeeell...it turned out that it was the first properly cold night of the year, and when we turned on the heater, it had obviously not been used in 8 months, because an enormous cloud of black dust poofed out at us and set off the fire alarms. We spent most of the time passionately sitting around with the door and windows open to air the place out playing 3DS and going through all the cards and presents to make our thank-you-note list.

Then came our honeymoon, which was...well, we walked around downtown the next day. Then I went back to school and he went back to work the day after that.

Buuuuuuut on our trip to New Mexico, we TOTALLY DID SHIT

I GOT ON A PLANE AND THE SEATS WERE REALLY NARROW

Don't worry, Mew-Mew came through it okay.

...The same could not be said for me when I went into the bathroom at the Dallas-Fort Worth GIANT FUCKING CITY airport and saw this shit.

That's the goddamn sink where you wash your hands. Turns out the right stick is soap, the middle is water, and the left is air. I've seen PlayStation 1 puzzles that made more fucking sense. Also, why is it a trough aaaaaaaaaaa

Anyway, airplanes are cool cause you get to look down at clouds

Then we waited a long time to get our rental car because they had one guy in charge of two separate companies. At least the vending machines had cans of Mountain Dew. Those are hard to find.

Once we were driving, it turned out that my suspicions were correct: New Mexico has lots of topography.

Hi, Mike's beard! So kyoot

The first thing we did was go up the tram to Sandia Peak. It was fucking cool. And also FREEZING because it's high up and the temperature is very literally 30 degrees colder than the bottom, and autumn in New Mexico is nice and cool to begin with. Check out the view from the tram!

Then there was more cool crap

I wish like hell I could get videos off Mike's phone easily, as mine has been having focus issues (like me. Get it? GET IT) and I got most of my best stuff using his phone, especially at the zoo. Albuquerque's zoo is the tits. Here's a happy little fella, by which I mean "a fuckin dinosaur of a snapping turtle with a water bottle for scale."

The penguin exhibit is probably the coolest thing in the history of ever because they have all this space to swim around and under and over you.

Only 10 images per post? Fine, Tumblr. This is to be continued, then
