[sickeningly-sweet-letters]

Hello can give yandere actor x fem reader please 🙏 😊

hello! i hope i havent been gone for- wait what do you mean its 2024?! i’m so sorry anon, and everyone for vanishing for months!

i hope i can write more this year! requests are open but i can’t promise how long it’ll take for me to get to them!

looking back now, wow i made this maybe too long-

i hope you like bratty yanderes lmao, anyways, here we go!

🌻 yandere actor x fem! reader

- yandere actor who’s been in the industry since they were but a young child. an accomplished actor known for their emotional scenes and many tear-jerker appearances..

- so imagine your surprise when their real personality is cockier and confident than you’d ever expect from behind the scenes.. but imagine their surprise when a new actor shows up and threatens their newest film! how annoyingly cute and naive you were..

- it made them wanna crush you. what? this industry is brutal and it’d be kinder to break you in a little now! well, thats what they thought, but you only responded to their condescending comments and childish teasing with your increasingly dwindling patience and maturity.. maybe you could survive here after all.

- their teasing went from malicious to just trying to banter with you.. wait- why did you tell on them?! they got pulled aside and told to be nicer to the new actress.. you snitch! how could you? they came running towards you and started crying out an apology, in a familiarly childish and bratty way.

- unfortunately for you, their acting managed to sway your heart into forgiving them.. what a gentle girl.. they wanted to see more of your acting! they began asking you if you’d ever been in any other films or projects.. come on, y/n! tell them! tell them! they’ve daydreamed of so many possible scenes together and their imagination isn’t enough anymore!

- y/n, this cafe is super yummy, why cant you go get a nice bite to eat after filming? y/n, do you like your set outfit today? they can’t believe you’re wearing matching outfits this scene! y/n, why don’t we do behind the scene videos together? y/n, can they come hang out at your house? y/n! y/n!

Y/N! pay attention to them!

- you were exhausted after every shooting since they always asked to spend time with you, and even on free days when they blew up your phone with sending cute selfies of them.. how did they get your number? isn’t it obvious? they asked the film crew! besides, you’re lucky they even have your number on their phone!

- you weren’t free from them even after production ended.. because for some reason, all the films and shows you were casted to come on, they were casted as well.. its especially odd with how many times you’ve been offered to play the female lead of a romance movie, with them as your main love interest.

- but this was hardly a coincidence, their connections sure came in handy here. they made sure you either took all the roles they gave you, or none at all. you were just so unprofessional during that important first movie that nobody else would cast you! so just take these and act with them again! they didn’t wanna act without you as the female lead!

- they would lie, sabotage and cry.. whatever it took for you to hang out with them again. they even stalked all your social medias and wanted more of you. so they decided to make more content about you! they took as many photos as they could, during makeup and dressing, during filming.. during your daily life.. wherever and whenever there was a chance for a photo to be taken without you knowing. how could they not? you’re just so precious!

- they constantly nagged you to go out with them and they acted all cute to keep you from getting too angry at them.. and if it doesn’t work, they can always cry.. you had such a soft spot for their tears.. you’re too good for this industry, doll face. you should just move in with them so you can hang out all the time! they’ll bring in all money!

- they tried to be nice and ask politely but if you refused.. they’d use their last resort. they starting crying and insisted the two of you go get drinks again at the cafe they liked. because you made them cry! its your fault! dummy y/n!

- once they were calm again, they went through with their last resort because it just wasn’t worth letting others see your acting.. it wasn’t worth letting others see you at all! thankfully, they lovingly took you in after you passed out after you finishing drinking your favorite tea/coffee.

- they brought you to your home, your new forever home! isn’t that so kind of them? they have top security since they’re such a top-grade actor! theres no way you’ll escape now.. and its really your fault, doll face. they gave you the nice way but you chose the hard way!

- if you even suggest leaving, they’ll start crying and throwing a fit about you not loving them.. and if you actually try to escape.. well, they’re not above breaking your legs, only to tend to you like the sweetheart they are.. it was your fault, doll face.

its always your fault they have to go to such extremes. but why don’t you forget about this for now and cuddle while watching your fateful first film together again? you know they won’t take a “no” doll face.

OMG UR TOO SWEET 😭😭😭 THANK U SM <33 I feel bad cause I feel like I’m kinda bombarding you with stuff but INDONT KNOW WHERE ELSE TO PUT MY THOUGHTS AND THE WAY YOU ALWAYS EXPAND ON STUFF IS SO YUMMY I LOVELOVELOVE TALKING AB STSG X READER 💗💗 omfg them as childhood best friends that both have a crush on u… 🙁🙁 WALK WITH ME RN

Suguru who’s the type of best friend that you know you can count on when you need comforting. When you need a reminder that the world won’t leave you behind- that time isn’t something you need to endlessly chase after, that you’re deserving of a break from stress. Who’s more than happy to soothe you with totally platonic cuddles and tea, stroking your hair or your back with his big, warm hands, some movie you recall watching with him in your childhood playing softly in the background while you rant to him (or stay silent, he doesn’t mind). Who always, always greets you with a hug and a gentle ruffle of your hair. Who your family (and his) always joke about being your boyfriend — which is always met with fake vomiting noises, the rolling of eyes, or scoffs. He hopes you don’t catch the blush on his face. — who cares for you when you’re sick, who makes sure you’re always dressed weather-appropriately and brings a snack and a drink with him for you when you go out anywhere together. Who cares and looks out for you so much you start jokingly referring to him as your “second mother”. Who always listens to what you have to say, pausing to hear your voice no matter what he was preoccupied with before — anything that comes out of your mouth is important to him.

Who cares for all his friends, so you don’t find it out of the ordinary the way he so vehemently keeps you safe and out of trouble, that he notices every little thing about you, that he’s always there for you. Always. Who makes sure to keep it that way- to keep you oblivious to the way he looks at you, to the soft smiles he reserves for you and you alone, to the sickeningly sweet feeling that crawls up his throat when you laugh at his jokes or are physically affectionate with him. Who promises to himself (and to shoko) that one day, he’ll build up the courage confess. But for now, he prefers to enjoy the almost childish giddiness of having a crush — mentally cursing satoru and his childlike habits such as this for rubbing off on him.

Satoru, who realises he’s crushing on you after literally everybody else realises. In his Defense, he’s a naturally affectionate person ! So naturally affectionate that it absolutely flew right past his radar that the need to hug you the way he hugged all his other friends became the need to hug you in a more loving way, the jokingly flirting comments became the need to truthfully tell you how beautiful you look when you laugh, the over dramatic, playful hand kisses as he referred to himself as your knight in shining armour became the need to kiss you silly — and oh fuck, he’s in deep now. Who’s the type of best friend that lives off adrenaline and dopamine rushes and drags you on adventures with him or spends a ridiculous amount of money on you (he claims to invite you on shopping trips with shoko just ‘because’ , but it’s secretly because he knows you’ll look amazing in a certain shirt he passed the other day and seeing you in it will give him a new thing to blush and giggle about for the next 2 weeks) who isn’t the greatest at comforting, but will do his very best to cheer you up with your comfort shows and your favourite snacks (all of which he wrote down in his phone to make sure he doesn’t forget), who gets all pouty when you mention having a little crush on the handsome guy who works at the local cafe — and, for some mysterious reason, suddenly satoru doesn’t like that cafe anymore. “Food wasn’t even that good there anyway 😒” (he’s ridiculous).

Who makes absolutely no effort to hide the fact he’s whipped for you simply because he knows that nobody will think he’s serious — it’s satoru for gods sake, when is he not joking?Who always “jokes” about wanting to kiss you, who always tells people that yeah, hes your boyfriend, just because he likes your flustered reaction. Who treasures the hugs and glances you give him more than anything else in the world. Who loves giving you piggyback rides, who buys a diary for no other purpose than to write about you in it like a lovesick high school girl with a crush, who makes it very known to all of the people who he suspects might dislike you that you’re somebody he truly cares about, and that he’d rather die than let someone treat you bad.

Anyways they’re both clingy overprotective lovesick sillies that would annihilate anyone getting in the way of you being happy and healthy <3333 .I’m actually screaming why is this so long. Don’t look at me I’m hiding SCREAMS I DIDNT MEAN TO WRITE THAT MUCH I GOT CARRIED AWAY��� UHM RUNS AWAY ANYWAYS HAVW A LOVELY NIGHT/DAY SSHDKAJDJSKDJJ 💗💗💗

STSG ANON MY BELOVED how did u know childhood besties is my favorite trope ever…….

first of all PLS dw abt sending long asks or anything of the sort i love love love reading these !!! and i love talking abt stsg w u too !! <33 this one in particular just ended me im SO weak for this trope u dont even know 😭😭😭

IM JUST . childhood friends is imho like The best trope for sugu ever and i think ur description is just perfect???? HES SO . hes just so effortlessly good at looking out for u and tending to u hhhhh :<

When you need a reminder that the world won’t leave you behind- that time isn’t something you need to endlessly chase after, that you’re deserving of a break from stress. Who’s more than happy to soothe you with totally platonic cuddles and tea, stroking your hair or your back with his big, warm hands, some movie you recall watching with him in your childhood playing softly in the background while you rant to him (or stay silent, he doesn’t mind).

^ THIS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 i SOBBED i am picking u up and kissing u anon this is so good. he really is just soso soothing???? so comforting?? i feel like he would just be that One thing in life u can always trust and aaaaughhhhh im just so obsessed

HIM BLUSHING WHEN UR PARENTS TEASE U 💔💔💔💔 i can see it so clearly .

i feel like sugu would be okay with never really voicing his feelings for u?? at least not until smth pushes him in that direction . i DO think he’d get kinda jealous if u got a partner but less in a ”theyre mine” way and more in a ”i dont trust anyone else to love them properly” way yknow???? i feel like its just so ingrained in him to take care of u especially since uve known each other for so long!!

can u tell childhood bestie!sugu makes me kinda insane PHSJDHDJ u have no idea what uve awakened in me anon…….. 😭😭

AND CALLING HIM MOM SO REAL!!! he’d just scoff and roll his eyes but i genuinely think it would make him happy LMAOO hes like .. they appreciate me <3 . cutiepie.

anything that comes out of your mouth is important to him. <- IM NODDING MY HEAD SO HARD RN hes such a wonderful listener i just know he always always always pays attention when u speak :((((

Who makes sure to keep it that way- to keep you oblivious to the way he looks at you, to the soft smiles he reserves for you and you alone, to the sickeningly sweet feeling that crawls up his throat when you laugh at his jokes or are physically affectionate with him.

^ AND THISSSSS GOD THIS yeah. we’re so linked anon. i really think he’d be more than okay with just keeping all his love for u unvoiced until the moment is really right….. because you’re just so precious to him!! maybe he’d be afraid of scaring u away too if hes too forward.. or ruining ur friendship…. and he’d rather die than have that yk? ☹️

AAAANNDD THEN GOJO <3333 i havent thought much abt him w this trope tbh SO I WAS SO EXCITED TO HEAR UR THOUGHTS………. and i agree sm i see the vision so clearly . hes just sooo affectionate and clingy and adventurous i feel like he’s the type of bestie to throw rocks at ur window at 2am bc he wants to go buy snacks w u PHDKDH HES JUST;;;;; hes so sweet.

THE PIGGYBACK RIDES…….. and him “joking” around but obv its not actually a joke like thats so …….. stsg anon i need a fic on this whole concept im soo obsessed

Anyways they’re both clingy overprotective lovesick sillies that would annihilate anyone getting in the way of you being happy and healthy <333

^ SO REAL no bc i love literally everything abt this??? i keep saying it but im just in awe of u and ur thoughts stsg anon…

DONT RUN AWAY PSJDJDJ i appreciate u soooo much <3333 tysm for the meal!! as always!! here is a flower for u 🌷

[shidousprincess]

Puren I pair you with Shoei Barou

(I’m trying this again since my tags broke yesterday) ~I have no idea where the ask went but trust me I took what was on it and applied it here~

Basically the grumpyxsunshine trope

You both were classmates he had always had a crush on you since you transferred so since you learned he was on the football team you always wanted to baked some cookies to give to the team and today you did , so you left a note on the plate that said “Enjoy!-❤���Puren” at first Barous thoughts were “tch I don’t need any of that crap”and went back to practicing until his teammates were bragging about how good they were so at the end of practice when everyone cleared out there was one cookie left so he took a bite and he absolutely loved it he hopped next time you brought cookies he could tell you how good of a baker you were~in private ofc!~ (and that’s basically how you two officially met )

He often takes you to the library/book store as a date and you both set and read and or buy some books to read together (i fr have this headcanon that he’ll have to lay on him while he reads a novel that you found ) He also loves to read your novels and proofread your work (we love a supportive bf)

Cat cafes as a date >> because why not

you both make each other special playlists of songs that reminds you of the other

You both cook together all the time you barely even order takeout like ever because one of the two of you will be cooking

Personality wise I feel like it would clash well even if you’re shy yet outgoing that’s basically what drew Barou to you when you first met

Barou is the type to want someone who is as much of a clean freak as he is and I feel you both would obviously click with that aswell (cleaning >>>> )

Ooo boy this man absolutely adores your sweet words and cuddles (I could see like if you had a bad day immediately has you in his lap whispering sweet nothings to you ~now this goes both ways but you’ll have him layed on your chest ~) because as I said above this man loves to hold you/you hold him because Barou automatically melts into you once he gets home from practice or a game

He absolutely loves your cutesy type style so whenever he’s at an away game before he ever comes home he’s going to buy you a new sweater/skirt that he thinks would look stunning on you

He definitely styles your hair for you be it a braid pony tail ect he’s right there ready to help with your hair

He definitely hides your glasses on purpose because he likes to see you struggling for a minute loll (when he’s with you he’s a whole different person trust)

Picks at you about y’all’s height difference a lot

Now he has definitely made you set on his back while he does push ups

He does tend to get a bit snarky when you’re friends come over and “dirty” his clean apartment (he’s just overreacting\joking) but he’ll eventually get used to it because if they feel safe with you that’s no big deal for him to adjust to

Other possible interest:Reo,Isagi

I hope this made sense(it’s probably ooc but I’m just having fun tbh!!) 😭🙏 also first one to get requested 🫡 I hope you like who I paired you with ! It not i apologize it’s just how I personally perceived this 💜anyway hope you enjoyed that read lolz i enjoyed writing this have a lovely rest of your day/evening/night remember to eat something yummy and drink some water much love 💜💜…..Thank you sm for the request and I’m glad you enjoy my work im trying to come up with more stuff to write as the days progress!! 💞✨

[maxlarens]

fiance on holiday wo you means staycation time me thinks!!!

have a nice brunch, a trip to the museum, a little cafe, stop at the bookstore, cooking a fancy but not to elaborate meal like ur in an airbnb, pick up a little overpriced fancy of cake for dessert, book before bed. what a treat!! what luxury!!!

- star

SIGHHH i wish🥲 i have to work 3/4 days he’s gone so i’ll probably just stay up really late tomorrow night because i won’t be able to sleep sksks. i’m definitely getting myself some yummy treats to have while watching quali or the race, maybe some wine🙂‍↕️ anyway maybe i’ll be active on here while everyone else is if i manage to stay awake!!

[dreamerwriternstargazer]

Really struggling to get up early when I sleep well 🥹 I got up early to bake still but usually I’d have stayed up from Fajr

But at Fajr I was like yeah I like peace. And quiet. *heads back to bed*

Anyway I did my side job before work in an hour and a half and now I’m at work

I can’t wait til cafe owner is my full time job someday Insha’Allah like I actually quite enjoy waking up early and baking sweets ^_^. I felt cheerful the whole time thinking how yummy they are and how people will enjoy them Insha’Allah, with my favourite baking anime on in the background

I also have two cookies spare which I can snack on with fruit as I did not have time for a proper breakfast, which is okay because I have a bit of a tummy ache (I need to massage it when I get home 😔 the only restless part of my sleep was the tummy ache) so I’m not too hungry anyway

*Director's default name as Izumi

―Room 201 (Night)―

Yuki: Hmm... Guess I’ll place these here.

Tenma: ...Hm? What’re those flowers?

Yuki: My sis gave them to me today.

Tenma: Huh, they’re pretty.

Yuki: What a shock. So you actually DO have the sensibility to appreciate flowers.

I thought you only have your eyes on bonsais.

Tenma: How rude of you!

―Courtyard (Day)―

Yuki: (There’s a lot of free time until the meeting with Sakyo...)

Hm?

Homare: How wonderful! Today is a perfect day for a tea party!

Tsumugi: I’m glad it’s sunny.

Izumi: This tea that Homare-san brewed for us is very delicious.

Muku: Huh? It’s Yuki-kun.

Yuki: What’s with the gathering.

Muku: We’re having a tea party right now. We’ve got some delicious snacks too so if you don’t mind, would you like to join us?

Yuki: ...Fine by me.

Izumi: There’s an empty seat here.

Yuki: Heeh... This table setting’s pretty cute.

Muku: It’s wonderful that the snacks are also flower-motif. Tsumugi-san shared some of the flowers blooming in the courtyard with us too.

Izumi: Kazunari-kun would be happy and say it’s very Instablammable if he were to see this.

Homare: Speaking of Inste, there is a project that you need to take photos for the promotion of the Actor’s Cafe, right?

Izumi: Yes, that’s right. Everyone is searching for their photo spot separately.

Tsumugi: Have you decided on where to take photos of yet, Yuki-kun?

Yuki: Not yet. I’ve tried to look for it but can’t find any good ones.

Tsumugi: I see, then how about this one cafe with many flowers?

Their main attraction is dried flowers, but they also have a menu with edible flowers too.

It’s been my favorite cafe recently.

It seems that you can also get to experience of arranging dried flowers there.

Homare: Oh, I know that cafe too.

According to my editor in charge, it is famous for its edible flower curry and crepes.

Izumi: A flower curry! I wanna go there...

Yuki: There it is, the Curry Alien.

Izumi: Won’t you pick this cafe as your photo spot?

Yuki: You just wanna eat the curry, right?

Izumi: Urk...

Yuki: I’ve got no other place to choose anyway, so it can’t be helped. I’ll go with you.

Izumi: It’s decided then!

―――

Waiter: Thank you for waiting, here is your Flower Crepe and Flower Curry~.

Izumi: Wow, there’s a lot of flowers on my curry...! How pretty!

Yuki: I’m having doubts whether you can really EAT that, with so many flowers on it.

Izumi: I’m sure it’ll be delicious since the spice has a nice aroma!

Yuki: Hey, don’t forget to take a photo.

Izumi: Oh, that’s right!

We’re gonna upload it to Inste anyway, so how about you try to do an Instablammable pose?

Yuki: Instablammable pose?

__________________________

On a Flower Cafe Date Now - Part 2

__________________________

Izumi: I did some research beforehand. Here, look at this!

Some people post something like, “Feel free to use this photo for your (pretend) date”.

Yuki: I’ve seen it before, but... wasn’t this popular from quite a while ago?

Izumi: Urk...

Yuki: Well, I can give it a try.

Izumi: That’s great, Yuki-kun! Okay, so there’s something like this... a pose of feeding your partner and say “Aah”.

Yuki: Let’s see... The fork goes like this.

Here, say “Aah”.

How’s it looking?

Izumi: Looks good! I’ll take a photo now, okay?

*snap*

Yuki: Did you get it?

Izumi: Perfect! Look, it really feels like a POV that you’re having a date with Yuki-kun!

Yuki: ...Hm, you did a pretty good job.

Izumi: Haha, glad to hear that.

―――

Phew, that was so yummy~. Thank you for the meal!

Yuki: Thanks for the meal.

Izumi: Oh right, Tsumugi-san said that we can arrange dried flowers here.

Yuki: Seems like we can do that over there.

Izumi: You’re right! Since we’re here already, why don’t we try it as well?

Yuki: Sure, I knew you were gonna ask that.

―――

Izumi: Wow, there are many kinds of dried flowers than I thought!

Which one are you gonna choose-.

Yuki: The hue for this one look better than this one...

Izumi: (As expected from Yuki-kun. He’s making it very swiftly.)

What should I choose... Oh.

(...I think I’ll get these flowers.)

―――

...I’m done！

Yuki: Me too.

Izumi: Here, this one is for you.

Yuki: For me?

Izumi: Yup. We always exchange our creations whenever we’re making something together, so I thought I should do it this time too.

I tried making it with lilies again... Do you like it?

Yuki: ...Not bad. It’s very you-like.

Well, here’s one from me for you.

Izumi: Wow, it’s really cute! Even though they’re dried flowers, the colors are so vibrant...!

Yuki: Of course, I’m the one who made it after all.

Izumi: Thank you! I’ll treasure them with care in my room!

Yuki: Okay. ...Thanks as well, Director.

―Room 201 (Night)―

……

(Where should I put these dried flowers...)

Hmm... Guess I’ll put them next to the flowers my sis gave me.

(Oh, I gotta change the water before decorating.)

―――

Tenma: Phew... Another tiring day today, huh.

Hm? These flowers look kinda different than last night...

N-no way-!

Yuki: Oh hey, you’re back already.

Tenma: T-this is bad!!

Yuki: What’s wrong with you?

Tenma: The flowers you received last night, they dried up so quick-!

Yuki: Hah? What are you talking about?

Tenma: I’m saying that these flowers are withering!

Yuki: Honestly, what are you saying? Those are dried flowers.

Tenma: ...What?

Yuki: The ones that my sis gave me are here. I just went out to replace the water.

Tenma: S-say that even sooner! So confusing, you know that!

Yuki: They were still fresh until yesterday, so there’s no way they can suddenly wither that quick.

Tenma: Urk...

Yuki: Haha, that was so hilarious. Gotta tell this to Kazunari and the others.

Kazunari~.

Tenma: H-hey, stop it! You don’t need to go out of your way to tell those guys!

Story Clear!

[moodywyrm]

wear it anyways, you deserve to look cute even if it’s hot 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

that’s so??? like i can understand not buying everyone a ticket but then just not telling you guys to buy your own ?? what did he expect

it was so good omg,, it’s this lil italian place we go to a lot and it’s such a nice atmosphere 🤭 and you can see the ferris wheel and the pier !! so pretty

aw i’m sorry :( but there’s nothing wrong with not writing !! especially because school is over, i’m sure your brain just needs a little break. you just need to ease yourself back into it! and fries!! those sound yummy :o

my day was good! but i think i’m being switched back to half wfh half in-person which is fine bc what i’m studying requires me to be in-person and hands-on 😭 but other than that it was relaxing, gf and i went to the bookstore for a lil while and then to a cafe 💕 nd we got binx some lil treats, he’s a very happy lil guy rn

- 🩷

while I appreciate the sentiment, if I wore my leather jacket in this weather I think I’d get heatstroke 😭😭 so I gotta wait until I get back to college and its cooler 💔

literally he told us he’d buy the row of seats so we could all sit together and then showed up with only one??? super fucking weird man, but it all worked out

that sounds so dreamy n romantic!! I’m so happy for y’all, what a sweet date 💕

yeah I’m just gonna go slow for now :( my brains been all over the place lately, but I do wanna keep writing for my girls 💕

aww not the half and half :( I hope it all goes smoothly!! A bookstore!!! God I can’t wait for my book ban to be over so I can go to bookstores and actually buy books 💔 a happy little guy!!! he deserves it!! he’s been working hard!! Very invested in the Binx saga 💕

[desde-los-cielos]

For some reason, I’m not into jasmine rice anymore. I used to love it. I can still appreciate the smell, but the taste and texture leaves something to be desired.

Friendship ended with jasmine rice, now koshihikari is my best friend. My very expensive friend. But it’s sooo yummy. And such a great texture.

Reminded of a conversation I had with a Japanese taxi driver. He was talking about a trying period of his life, where poor rice yields resulted in the mass importation of foreign rice. He hated it. And rejoiced when Japanese rice returned in full force.

I get it.

Oh yeah. Hakuoki CGs showed the characters eating white rice, which sparked my curiosity. The shinsengumi didn’t appear to be in a position to be buying white rice. I did a little research on rice in Japan. I think it said that millet and other grains were more popular at the time. Plus brown rice too. Now I want mixed grains. Mmm.

There’s a cafe I’ve been to that boasts that their rice balls are an original blend of rice and other grains. They were pretty yummy.

Gimme rice with mixed grains!! But don’t make me research. A friend once gave me some white rice mixed with these red rice grains. Apparently they had to be careful when adding the red rice, as bugs were super common. Very yummy. But too much work to pick out bugs.

anyway I can’t sleep and now I’m hungry. Thinking about how I ran out of koshihikari rice and made some jasmine rice. Disappointing. Also made some fried eggs using vegetable oil. Definitely missing that olive oil flavor. I can’t quite identify the flavor of olive oil, but I guess I can tell when it’s missing.

But I I’m almost out of it too, so I decided to dip into the vegetable oil. I like to use a good bit of oil to make sure nothing sticks and everything fries nicely. But felt it was such a waste since I don’t reuse the oil.

Fine I’ll just get more olive oil. Help I’m too used to more expensive ingredients.

SANTIAGO EVE

WF UPDATE: DAY 13 (7/14/23).

On the night before Christmas, many parents with small children experience a strange mixture of emotions. All of the hard work has been done. All that’s left is to sit back and enjoy the big day. It’s a mixture of exhaustion, excitement, relief, and satisfaction.

That’s how I feel tonight as I sit, with GC1, a mere 12 miles from the big Cathedral in Santiago. We’ve conquered 188 miles. Tomorrow, we take a leisurely walk to conclude this epic journey.

We know that tomorrow will be easy because we walked 13 miles today and it was absolutely “no sweat.” We were on the trail at 6:39 a.m. and, after taking only one break, we were at the cafe next to our hotel at 11:20 a.m.

You must be tired of hearing about small towns, corn fields, and dairy farms. I can tell you that I’m not tired of walking through them. It never gets old. Everything is so pretty. Life on the trail is very special. Today we passed through six small towns. Most of the walk was on county roads or wooded paths.

We assumed that our hotel room wouldn’t be available at 11:20 a.m. So, we figured that we’d grab an early lunch at the cafe next to the hotel. GC1 ordered pizza. I ordered a salad and chicken wings.

When I ordered the wings and salad, the waitress said something to me in Spanish. I told her that I didn’t understand. She wrote “12:00” on the back of her order book and mumbled something else. I thought she was telling me that it would take 12 minutes to cook the wings. I said “O.K.”

The pizza arrived quickly. After 15 minutes, I still didn’t have my food. After another 15 minutes I flagged down the server and we discussed the situation again. This time she spoke very slowly and explained, in very basic Spanish, that they get the wings and salads from the restaurant down the street (owned by the same family) and that restaurant doesn’t open until Noon. Welcome to Spain! Anyway, my food arrived about an hour after I had placed the order. I’m the meantime, GC1 had devoured the entire pizza and was working on an ice cream. My food was worth the wait. Yummy!

From the cafe, we only had to walk about 20 steps to get to our hotel. We were in our room by 1:15 p.m. The room is totally fine. We launched into our regular post-walk activities.

Once again, Saint James was watching over us today. By 1:30 p.m., it was raining. It was the hardest rain that we’ve seen. We watched from our window, which directly overlooks the trail. Dozens of Pilgrims walked by in their rain gear.

The rain stopped at about 4:00 p.m. I went out to explore Pedrouzo, our town for the night. It isn’t much of a town. There’s a strip, maybe half a mile long, that’s lined with small restaurants and Pilgrim housing. My walk was interesting anyway. The town is full of Pilgrims, and they’re already in celebratory mode. They’re a wild bunch. It’s a big night for the consumption of beer and wine. The Pilgrims know that they’ll make it to Santiago even if they have a hangover. Many Pilgrims travel in packs that spontaneously develop on the trail. A few weeks ago, these drinking buddies didn’t know each other. They’ve become good friends, but they’ll probably never see each other again after tomorrow. They’re entitled to their celebration. I’m glad the rain stopped.

It’s time for me to get my little Pilgrim ready for his big day tomorrow. We’ll see you in the big plaza next to the Cathedral. We’re glad that you’ve joined us on this journey. If you’re so inclined, sometime on the 15th have a beer or a glass of wine to celebrate the conclusion of our journey.

Day 13 - Jan 13 - Prague

I’m SO ANNOYED

I wanted to do my hair assuming I had an extra hair tie in my bag so I sat at the Schonbrunn Palace cafe and they kept asking me what I wanted to order so I panicked and bought a tea. Turns out I didn’t have a hair tie so I was like duck and then I saw a sign that said if I was late to my entry then I might not get in so I started panicking so I got the tea to go and got the check. The tea was FREAKING 5.40 EUROS. A TEA!!!!!!

And I didn’t even drink it bc I was scared I was gonna miss my entry and lose 26 euros! So I drank like 1/4 of it and dumped it before the entrance. I was like 6 mins late, it let me in but I didn’t know it would because all of the signs were like “NO ENTRY IF MISSED ENTRY TIME” the worst part was the man was like “5.40 euros for you, just for you” and I didn’t even process but now I’m like WTF FOR A SINGLE BLACK TEA U CRAZY MOFO

Anyways, the Schonbrunn palace came with a free audio tour which was nice!! I paid for the full 40 rooms so I got to see some cool halls and I do think audio tours help a lot lmao I love Theresa and Sisi, also Sisi be like the first insecure skinny IG model of her time!! Learned a lot.

The palace tour really only took like 45 mins so I walked around the grounds, which was HUGE, and listened/watched the rest of The Sound of Music. I cried like 3 times. I’m so grateful to be here.

I totally forgot about the Apple strudel demo in the palace until I got on the U lmao.

I decided to just head back to Karlsplatz and see if the Hofberg or any other museum was worth going to. First stop though was Demel to get apfelstrudel bc I missed it at the palace. I got there and there was no line but it was super confusing to get seated and then lady seemed mad at me for seating myself even though they just kept pointing at the room as if I should seat myself. So she didn’t come take my order for like 15 mins.. it was annoying. Luckily, the food came fairly quickly and it was yummy!! It was like pancake clumps with raisins inside and a liquor-infused (I think) bowl of sliced plums. Very yummy. That was my lunch lmao.

From there I did some research on what museums to go to and decided to go to the Art History Museum, so I quickly went down there and spent a good 2-3 hours walking around. It was suuuuper pretty!

After that, I hurried out to start shopping - I needed to look for a bigger backpack, maybe some flats or nice shoes for the opera, and get souvenirs + dinner before getting home to shower, change, and maybe print, WITH enough time to go get Sacher torte and try the 9 3/4 bar.

I did it. Except printing. But I think I can do that when I get back from the Opera.

I finished getting ready around 5:50pm which was a TAD late so I ran downstairs and scarfed down my pasta salad in the dark bc the guest kitchen had no lights on. And I ate it with a spoon bc I couldn’t find a single fork, but it was yummy and it was nice to have some veggies even if it was only like 5 slices of cucumber and 5 cherry tomatoes.

I took the metro one stop and immediately went to Cafe Sacher but the line was insaaaaane. Turns out though they have a store where they sell all sizes of Sacher tortes bc it’s very famous. I thought about buying a torte to take home but it’d have to travel with me for over a week so I was like maybe not lol. I bought two little ones to go and they wrapped it all nicely.

I walked back to the 9 3/4 bar and ordered the gin and tonic drink. The hostess was a little confused that I was by myself hahaha but it was SOOOO good. Omg no gin flavor at all - although now I’m not even sure there was gin at all.

During intermission, I got a piece of gum and was putting it away in my jacket and the asian lady that was sitting in the front row was like “I’m leaving if you want to take my seat!” And I was like “omg are you sure that’d be amazing bc I can’t see shit in the back” and we got it talking a little and she’s from SF but used to live in Vienna and this is her first time back since and it’s her last night so she thought she’d squeeze in the opera but has a call or something early tomorrow morning. She was SO NICEEE and now I CAN SEEEE

[so-much-for-subtlety]

oh, this is kind of funny, but I forgot to mention the reason why I’m so reflective tonight, and it’s because I’m tormented by an excellent memory, and the reason I found out that he was cheating on me 3 years ago was because I was at local neighborhood cafe sitting in outdoor patio seats having a glass of this yummy plummy merlot and writing, and he walked right past (unexpected because he didn’t live in my neighborhood) and turns out he’d been hooking up with another guy a few blocks over from me 🙃

anyway I was at wine store last week and saw they had the exact same Merlot for sale (it’s organic, and great value at $15 a bottle) so I grabbed a bottle and that’s what I’m drinking tonight.

I try and keep it light and silly here but I’m going to share something personal 🙃

3 years ago I was in a bad relationship with a really manipulative guy, and 3 years ago I broke it off (almost to the day- I broke it off the week before Christmas when I found out he’d been cheating).

He was a covid rebound- I’d dated him a couple years before pandemic (but broke up when he was cheating on me) and I made the mistake of reaching out to him when I was horny lol.

Anyway, I learnt a lot from that horrible situation, but despite never wanting to see or have contact with him ever again, I would find myself thinking of him (briefly) almost everyday where it would feel like a punch to the stomach.

A couple months ago I talked about it with therapist where I did it felt like his memory was haunting me, and I wish I could just let it go.

I don’t know if there was some power in saying that out loud, or if it was just a matter of time, but I’ve noticed over last few weeks I’ve been free from that ghost, and if I have been reminded of him it’s not been the sucker punch, and more of a ‘eh, whatever’.

He messed me up a bit and I think I have a while to go before I have another relationship, but it feels so good to feel that he is now truly in the past. For a while it felt like he was going to be haunting me forever, but eventually it has passed 👻

That situation also forced me to face a few things that I’d been avoiding: mostly that I sort of treated myself like shit. And in the last few years it’s been amazing how much better my life has gotten, and how much more peace I have when I treat myself with a little more compassion and treat myself more like I treat other people.

anyway I’m a little wine drunk, but I don’t use any other social media, so wanted to celebrate a small victory here✌️

Conveying a New Breeze (Kaoru Feature Scout) - 2

(Now I find myself beside Anzu-chan, spending time with her like this. With the way things are going… is this what I think it is–)

Season: Autumn

Kaoru: Ahaha, I’m glad I got it correctly. Or more like, I’m relieved because I wanted to talk to you more or less about the same thing.

You should relax your shoulders a bit more, Anzu-chan. …But I’m not sure if you would want to hear that from the person who got you feeling all troubled.

I’m also glad we can think about my outfit together from here on out.

Since you’re earnest about taking what I want into consideration, I also want you to get to know me better.

So, what can I do to help with my special outfit? Can you tell me what you have in mind?

Kaoru: (She said she wants to listen to me talk about myself one more time.)

(So I suggested that we can take a stroll around ES while we’re at it.)

Kaoru: (Now I find myself beside Anzu-chan, spending time with her like this. With the way things are going… is this what I think it is–)

(N-Nope, nope, I shouldn’t get too ahead of myself! We’re just going to talk about my exclusive outfit… Get yourself together, Kaoru!)

Kaoru: Uhm, I did say I was going to talk but I’m not sure what I should talk about. What's a good topic that could be useful as a reference for making an outfit, anyway?

I guess we can start with something cliche like, things that I like?

Well, I think you already know this but, the fact that I’ve always liked the sea has never changed.

But even though I keep on saying I like the sea, I was so busy this summer that I wasn’t able to go there as much as I would have wanted.

That’s why I really enjoyed myself when we all went to the sea for Kanata-kun’s outfit just recently♪

Things like walking along the shore or making sand castles… I find any activities at the beach really special to me.

…Yup, it’s just exactly as you said. I also love surfing.

Oh, so you read the magazine feature last month. Okay, where were we… You were saying you want to go to a place where it’s famous for surfing?

To be honest, I’ve been eyeing that place too~ Not just to go surfing, but also to simply listen to the sound of the waves or spend my time along the shore at my own leisure.

Now that I think about it, ways of having fun at the beach are changing little by little…Or it’s more like you can do so much more at the beach now.

Besides doing the things I like, I love the thrill of that change; it brings me new ideas and aspirations on how I can spend my time there. I wonder if it’s because I’m all grown up now ♪

Back then, I would get all giddy like a child when I visited tropical places. I felt so free and I can't help but let loose on an unfamiliar island…

—Oh, look over here.

This shop’s display has goods and artwork all lined up. They remind you of the freshness of the seashore for some reason, don’t they?

Just like with interior design, same goes for fashion. It's pretty handy when I can include the things I like into my daily life which makes me appreciate it more often.

Since we were already on the topic of the things I like, I thought that I might as well add that.

I’m staying at a dorm right now, so it might be difficult to put it somewhere in our room. If I had my own room, then maybe…

Oh! Yeah, I was looking at that garland over there. It got your attention too? The motif has this pleasant feeling that really stands out from the rest♪

(Anzu-chan, you’re really taking notes. I thought of presenting myself in an exaggerated way, but it looks like it’s alright to keep on talking about the little things about myself.)

(Hmm, yeah… It’s actually better if she gets to know me like this, little by little.)

(Next, I want to bring her to a place where we can have a longer conversation. Maybe that pastry shop that serves yummy pancakes or the book cafe I recently came across–)

Wanna move on to the next store, Anzu-chan? There’s still a lot I want to tell you…♪

Several days later…

Kaoru: Aa~h, what should I do…! I just can’t choose one from all the designs Anzu-chan gave me. They all look great…

No, no, that wasn’t a compliment! I’m sincerely thinking it through, so I can’t really decide on something. I’m so sorry for taking your time.

But when I think about how Anzu-chan came up with these for me, one design is just as–

(Hm? This one concept in particular is completely different. It looks like a rough draft compared to the others…)

What’s wrong, Anzu-chan? You seem anxious about the sketch I’m looking at right now.

So you didn’t want to give this to me… Is this not included in the list of the designs you initially thought of for the outfit?

…Oh, uhm, I’m sorry for putting you on the spot like that. Okay, but listen to me for a sec.

Is this also a concept you came up with for me?

I see, that’s a relief… I was curious so I thought I’d ask. If this was for another person, I’d feel down about it.

While thinking of ideas, you remembered the stuff we talked about and the things we saw. You wanted to draw it by all means, but all you finished was a sketch…

It just means that you really put your heart into this one, right?

…Say, Anzu-chan. Do I really have to exclude this design from the concepts I’ll choose for my outfit?

Mm, yeah, thought you’d say that. But to be honest, I’ve grown to like it.

What I shared to you on that day, I mean all of it. So if this outfit can capture the memory we had, I think it would best describe my sincere feelings.

I can already picture myself up there on the stage… I can’t wait for everyone to see how I’d look in this outfit.

Seeing as you’re worried with this one, this might not be the outfit but…

I just know I’ll completely pull it off. You do think I’m good-looking, don’t you? 

Hey now, why are you laughing at that~? I’m imagining myself giving a performance where I can steal the hearts of every one of my female fans, I mean it.

(At that moment, I’ll also charm Anzu-chan with my performance. I’m not gonna say that one out loud, of course.)

So, let’s move forward with this direction?

…”If you already have an image of the stage and the performance, then there’s no reason to say no,” you say? Are you okay with it?

“Because more than anything, I want to encourage you as an idol”…?

Me as an idol…

Don’t worry about it. The fact that Anzu-chan believes in me as an idol and gave me an OK is more than enough for me.

Kaoru: Because it’s going to be an outfit that Anzu-chan made for me, I’ll absolutely cherish it. I’m sure I’ll look good in it.

I’m certain I’ll show you something that will exceed your expectations, so look forward to it…♪

“lisa, i swear!” you try telling your friend again. “every time i’m here, it always says 4 meters away. it can’t be just a coincidence!”

“are you sure it’s him though?” she questions. “just be sure, that’d be embarrassing if it wasn’t and you went up to him to declare your love only to be shot down.”

“literally every single time i go up to order something, it displays less than a meter, who else would it be?” you’re bouncing in your seat now. you’ve been waiting for a long time to muster up the courage to go and introduce yourself, and maybe hint at your special bond. today, you’ve brought your best friend to give you moral support.

“okay, go do it. i believe in you, don’t back out in the last moment, if this succeeds, you know what that means.” lisa winks at you while you roll your eyes at her tone and what she is hinting at.

“okay,” you sucked in your breath, and exhaled. “whew, i got this.” you tried calming your nervous, excited, very confused nerves.

“go!” lisa pats you as you stand up, walking towards him. you give lisa a last forced smile, and she sends you an encouraging thumbs up back. and you turn around, facing your goal straight on.

it seems like the regular handsome barista is also walking towards the boy too, but it doesn’t matter, nothing is going to stop you.

before the barista can even open his mouth, you start speaking.

“hi! i’m y/n, this might seem weird to say, but i think you’re my soulmate.” you try to smile after blurting it out, wanting to crawl into your hole of a room in embarrassment. especially when the boy tries to hide a laugh, and the barista beside you lets out an annoyed huff and walks back to the counter. 

you are so confused, and embarrassed. very embarrassed. did you mention embarrassed?

“uhm, is there a problem-” you look down at your arm, and instead of a 0, what you were expecting, there’s a 2. “oh, oh no. i am so sorry.” you say to the boy in front of you.  

“don’t worry about it,” he chuckles. you wanted to die. “i’m jaemin, i think i’ve seen you around the cafe before.”

“yeah, you’re always here when i am and stuff just matched up for some reason, i’m so sorry about the misunderstanding.” you apologize one more time before turning around to walk back to your table, dejected.

“wait one second,” jaemin says, you turn back to face him, confused once more. “you have the wrong person, but you’re right, someone here is your soulmate.”

“jaemin, your coffee.” you turn to see the barista again, this time holding a cup of coffee, no it doesn’t even look like coffee, more like straight up poison. you watch in awe as he happily accepts it and takes a delighted sip.

“ah yes, i’m finally awake.” jaemin smiles brightly. “what were we talking about again? oh right, your soulmate.” you look down at your wrist again, and this time, it displays 0. 

“it’s you!” you exclaimed, as if you had an eureka moment, spinning around to face your true soulmate, the barista. 

he scoffs before walking back to the counter, you following closely behind him.

“took you long enough.” he said, you leaned on the counter, watching him make another cup of coffee.

“why didn’t you say anything if you knew?” you questioned, your ego slightly bruised. 

“it was cute listening to you rant about not being able to find your soulmate, and then realize that they would be in this cafe. the one you come to about every single day.” he turns around and hands you an iced coffee, just the way you like it.

“how long have you known?” you sipped curiously.

“about 2 months? give or take.” he then hands you a cutely made cat cupcake, he sees the way you perked up after given food.

“wow, you really have some good self-control, if that was me, i’d not be able to hold myself back.” you happily munch on the yummy treat, getting some frosting on your top lip.

“yeah, i can tell.” he leans in, wiping the frosting off your lip, handing you a napkin, you feel your face heating up. “oh hey, jaemin owes me $5.” the boy suddenly remembers out of the blue.

“for what?” you finish the cupcake and throw the wrapper in the garbage beside him.

“i bet that you wouldn’t guess it was me.” he smiles to himself, seeming pretty proud of himself. you huffed. “i’m still pretty surprised you had the guts to go up to someone to ask though, congrats.”

“aghh, i just don’t know why you wouldn’t tell me, and just watch me go up to someone and be wrong! what kind of soulmate are you?” you really feel embarrassed, but at least now you know who your soulmate is.

“well, why didn’t you think it was me?” the boy asks you this time. you feel your face hot again, and you turn around, not wanting to face him. 

“i thought you were too handsome and i was too nervous to be around you.” you mumble. you had secretly been crushing on him for a while, before you figured out that your soulmate would be in the cafe every single time you were there. but after finding out, you thought he was way out of your league and completely disregarded him.

“what did you say?” he leaned in closer to try and hear you better, but very obviously teasing you. “i didn’t quite catch that.”

“you heard me, dummy.” you pouted, grumbling as you crossed your arms. 

“i thought you said i made you nervous, what happened to that huh?” he laughs, teasing you further.

“well, now i’m not because i know you’re my soulmate.” you catch lisa looking at you, puzzled at what is unfolding in front of her eyes. you sent a pair of thumbs up to reassure her. “anyways soulmate, you got a name don’t you?”

“it’s jeno, it’s also on my name tag, do you not pay attention to me at all?” jeno pouts, making you swoon a bit.

“i know your name! i just wanted to hear you say it.” you try and defend yourself. jeno laughs at how easily you are worked up. “so, soulmate, does that mean i get free food here now?” you wink at him as he looks at you in disbelief.

“that was my hard work for these 2 months, i could’ve given that cupcake to me to treat myself.” jeno complains. “and i’m really hungry right now.”

“hmm, are you sure?” you try again.

“no.”

“please?” you look at him with wide and sparkly eyes you know he can’t resist.

“negotiable.” he crosses his arms, facing away from you as he blushes.

“see! i knew you were a softie.” you poke him in the side.

smiles grow on both of your faces and you know you’ve found your soulmate.

Time of Death 1:39PM

I’m calling it.  I have religiously watered, fertilized, and pampered the pumpkin vines, but there’s still no evidence of baby pumpkins.  I’ve had dozens upon dozens of blossoms, didn’t see any female flowers, and even if there’d been a girl bloom or two, I rarely see pollinators around here.  There will be no Great Pumpkin at the Pullen house this year.  Please respect my privacy during this difficult time. On a happier note, I’m not mad at the weather today.  It’s wonderful. Normally this time of afternoon is like an oven.  Could this be a hint of fall or am I reading too much into one cloudy day?

The mister and I have a date after he finishes work today.  We’re crossing the state line and shopping at the Lowe’s in Camden, Delaware.  It’s just 30 minutes away and they have a bird bath that I want.  I’m trying to lure song birds to our patch and a water source is one way to do it.  I could have been there and back while he’s upstairs working, but I may need his help lifting my purchase.  Besides, maybe we’ll pick up dinner while we’re out.  There’s a method to my madness. Always. Did I mention that Mickey has been asked by the Caroline County Tourism Board to photograph everything from parks to businesses for their new book/marketing launch?  Yep, he’s only been here four months and he’s got fans.  Here’s the best part - last week he went over to Ridgley to snap the historic train depot and the very popular Ridgely Pharmacy Cafe across the street.  The cafe is known for its ice cream and it’s good lunches.  It’s also a pharmacy...and there’s a gift shop upstairs.  One stop shopping, folks. Have a cone while you’re waiting for your prescription, then pop upstairs and get granny’s birthday present.  Anywho, as he chatted up the nice gals at the cafe and let them know what he was doing they insisted that he take home a container of their famous chicken salad, on the house.  How nice! He dropped that off in the frig and said that he wanted to run over to Craft Bakery here in Denton and take a few snaps as well.   Craft Bakery is HEAVEN. Pure, decadent, delicious heaven!  We’ve had their quiche and I swear it compares to the quiche that made my eyes roll back in Paris.  We’ve tried a variety of their baked goodies and can’t decide what’s best.  They also do lunches - sandwiches and soups with flavor combos that will blow your mind.  So I waved him off to Craft Bakery with my blessing.  You guys, same scenario - he eplained his task and they sent him home with scrumptious goodies! Oh my.

#1 -  Mickey’s favorite, the Prosciutto Everything Knot - warm & yeasty roll with prosciutto rolled in, topped with Everything Bagel seasoning

#2 -  Another Mickey favorite, a bacon and scallion biscuit - tall, fluffy, and flavorful. #3 - Pumpkin Cheesecake Danish w/ Salted Toffee Drizzle - I mean, honestly, do I have to say anything else? This was TO. DIE. FOR.   I cut off about a quarter of it and immediately went back for another quarter...until it was gone. #4 - The Morning Roll - I haven’t tasted this one, but they’re VERY popular at the bakery. Looks like a cinnamon-sugary delight.  Mickey loves them.  Disclaimer: Mickey has never met a baked good he didn’t like.  #5 -  Blackout Cookie - a delicious, deep, dark chocolate cookie with sea salt on top and it is FABULOUS. So thanks to Mickey’s snapping finger we enjoyed yummy chicken salad sandwiches for lunch and had amazing desserts for days.  At this rate I’m going to need him to go photograph a Caroline County Weight Watchers group so I can get a free membership.  Just kidding, I’d never give up Craft Bakery. That’s all the news I have to share on this Wednesday afternoon - just stuffing our faces and shopping for bird baths.  We’re classy like that.  I hope that your afternoon is peaceful, and if it’s not I hope you get a cookie.  Just get the cookie anyway, you deserve it. Stay well, stay safe.

(still missing that key) Nancy

[closedafterdark]

jfc man when i asked for the saerom x trainer smut i was expecting you to pull up with a quick write. It was more than I could ask for thank you very much. Theres a not much fromis smuts so its always a great read. Anyways for the next promt: Jisun in a cafe mete-cute that turned steamy in the bathroom go (include titty fucking if possible pls and thank you)

A follow up to Saerom.

You looked outside the window, nervous.

The previous night’s rain droplets reflected as the bright sunlight hit it. Lots of people were enjoying a beautiful day with their loved ones.

Here you were, in an intimate cafe that was brightly lit and minimalist in feel. Only a handful of customers were inside, mainly people getting their morning started. You looked down at the giant leaf the rather cute barista made for you and sighed. Your parents have been pressuring you to get married, and so you agreed to go on a blind date if it meant they can’t interfere with your dream to be a professional photographer.

You knew nothing of this woman, only that she was a few years younger and the daughter of your father’s friend. 

You dressed up, but thought it was overkill as you sat in the cafe. You spent the previous night debating all possible color combinations for your outfit. In the end you decided on: a shirt that you ironed longer than you should’ve to make sure not a single wrinkle was formed, a skinny black tie, black skinny slacks that were a bit too short on you and freshly shined black shoes. One would assume you were going to a funeral or were some sort of bodyguard. All that planning just for you to return to a color you always wore. You looked at your watch, the woman was almost ten minutes late. Taking a glance around the cafe, you see a table of several women stealing glances at you and whispering to each other.

Just then, the door opens and a woman runs inside. The sounds of her heels rang through the cafe floor as she hurriedly runs to your table.

“Ahh you’re my blind date, right?” she said, panting heavily.

“I think so?” you asked, a bit doubtful.

“I’m so sorry, I got so caught up getting ready I didn’t realize what time it was” she said, sitting down across from you.

“It’s fine, I haven’t been here for long anyways” you replied.

“Since I know who you are, I’ll introduce myself. My name is Noh Jisun” she said.

“Yes, my father’s told me you’re his friend’s daughter” you said, bowing.

“My parents are trying to marry me off since I told them I don’t want to be chef and want to be a singer instead” Jisun explained.

“I understand. Parents want what’s best for their kids and sometimes that means they make us do things we’re uncomfortable doing. Mine are the same, actually” you said.

“Hello, ma’am. Would you like anything to drink?” the waitress said to Jisun.

“A cup of red bean tea, please”

“Right away, ma’am”

“Not too many people are into red bean tea” you said when the waitress left.

“An older friend introduced me to it. It helps a lot since my face gets pretty bloated when I wake up”

Jisun picked up the cup of hot liquid and drank it. You watched as it flowed down her throat, causing her to hum in satisfaction. A little bit dropped onto her black long sleeved top, causing her to get a napkin and wipe it.

"This place makes it pretty good" she said.

"So, tell me about yourself" Jisun said as she fixed her top.

"I'm here against my will because my parents don't approve of me being a photographer"

"Well. I see then. Straight to the point" Jisun said, giggling.

You couldn’t help but admire Jisun’s long sleeved top that showed off her fair toned shoulders and impressive chest. She caught you staring at something before looking down and smiling.

“I take it you’ve noticed my breasts?” she said in a naughty tone, squeezing them.

“I didn’t... uh”

“It’s fine. Most guys usually stare at them or my thighs. Why don’t we go somewhere more... private?”

You placed enough money to cover the two drinks and a bit extra as you grabbed Jisun’s wrist and dragged her away. Her heels rang through the floor as other customers watched you two.

The spacious interior was rather easy to maneuver as you held her hand and led her to a wooden door that was clearly labeled “Men’s”. You didn’t bother checking if there were other people occupying the stalls before you began kissing Jisun’s neck, causing her to moan as you form a trail onto her shoulders.

“I wasn’t late because I overslept. I... ah... was late b-because I was touching myself. My father sent me your photo and I couldn’t resist” Jisun whispered in your ear.

“I wish I was made aware that you have such a nice rack” you said as you pulled down her top and exposed her marvelous breasts, which were extremely soft and round. You wanted to do nothing else other than bury your face and cock between them.

Your fingers squeezed Jisun’s pretty nipples, making her moan once again as you felt them hardening. As you began fondling her breasts, Jisun’s erotic moans and her licking your ear was making you even more turned on at the fact that you two were still in a public place. Her breasts were rather heavy, but still extremely soft to the touch. You licked her cleavage, tracing your lips all over her chest. The faint smell of vanilla lotion lingered through your nose as you inhaled her wonderful aroma.

You spread Jisun’s legs open, unsurprised to find her not wearing any underwear.

“I knew you were going to fuck me so I decided not to wear any. Not like I do regardless” she said, lightly biting your neck.

Your hands roamed the inner creases of her thighs until they found their way to her folds. You ran one finger tip up and down, causing Jisun to slowly leak onto your finger.

“You’re such a bad slut, aren’t you?”

“Y-Yes” she smiled, before your hand went up her thighs and stopped before they reached her pussy. Jisun was beginning to get desperate, wanting you to stick your finger inside her already.

She tried holding your hand in place by closing her thighs, but you slapped them softly and prevented her from doing so.

“Bad girls don’t get to close their legs” you said.

Your hands returned in between her legs, inserting one finger after another as Jisun’s moans began to increase in volume. She tried moving her body up and down your fingers, but you held her wide hips and shook your head. You pumped them as slowly as possible in order to keep her wanting more.

This went on for several minutes until you surprised her by pumping faster inside her. Jisun’s tight walls surrounded your fingers as her moans came out in staggered breaths. You hoped there was no one else inside the stalls or outside the door as she did a terrible job of keeping a secret.

The sounds of your fingers being coated by Jisun’s juices as they fucked her echoed throughout the restroom. Her moans increased as you felt your fingers being drenched. Every thrust stained her thighs as she begged you for more.

Her juices leaked all over your hand as you used your free hand to rub her clit. Jisun was close, as she looked at you with desire in her eyes. You knew she wanted to cum.

That would’ve been the case, if she was in control. As her body squirmed and was about to reach a euphoric high, you pulled out your fingers as Jisun’s moans filled your ears.

“I was going to cum!” she whined, trying to catch her breath.

“Bad girls deserve to be teased” you said, squeezing both of her ass cheeks softly.

“But I wanted to cum...” she whimpered.

“That depends on how well you suck my cock” you said, taking off your cardigan and placing it in front of you. Jisun smiled as she knelt in front of you and began to unzip your slacks. With one swift motion, she lowered them and your boxers, freeing your extremely hard erection from its cloth prison.

Jisun smiled widely as she eyed your cock. She licked her lips, salivating at the thought of what she wanted to do first. Her hand gripped your shaft and began to stroke while simultaneously licking your tip.

“You’re so hard” she said as she planted several wet kisses on your tip while stroking your cock.

“Only have you to blame” you said, smiling.

Jisun kisses your tip once more before holding your shaft and licking downwards until she reaches your balls, swirling her tongue around before she takes each in her mouth. You moaned as you felt your balls coated in her saliva as she released them with a loud pop.

Jisun licked every surface possible, leaving trails of saliva behind. Her soft lips wrapped themselves around your cock, causing you to moan. Jisun sucked you hard, taking you all the down to your base before coming back out.

“That’s a good girl” you moaned as you ran your fingers through Jisun’s brown hair, placing a hand behind her head and guiding the rhythm at which she bobbed up and down on your cock.

Jisun continued sucking your cock as you held onto her hair.

“You’re so yummy” she said as her saliva slowly dropped down your length.

Jisun’s blowjob was very wet and sloppy, spreading her wetness everywhere.

You’re so hard... it feels so good...” she said, slowly stroking you.

K-Keep sucking, please” you moaned, feeling your body tingle.

“Of course... master” Jisun said in a seductive tone as she shoved your cock back in her mouth, rubbing it across the surface of her tongue repeatedly. You could do nothing but moan, it was as if you were under Jisun’s spell as she gave you the most incredible blowjob of your life.

“You feel so good in my mouth” she managed to say while slurping on your cock.

Jisun swirled her tongue around your head rapidly. “I haven’t had cock this good in awhile”

“Do you want me to do this?” she asked as you see saliva spilling out of her mouth as her face has now become flushed. Jisun squeezes her tits before wrapping them around your cock.

“Oh my god...” you moaned in awe.

Jisun moved her breasts up and down, watching your facial expressions as they squeezed your cock. They were so soft and jiggled each time they bounced up and down in front of you.

“Oh fuck... you feel so good between my tits” she cried, as she closed her eyes and moaned. The sounds being made felt almost as good as the sensation of Jisun’s tits sandwiching your cock: her tits splashing as she used your saliva laced cock, her soft, sweet moans, and the quietness of the restroom. Your resistance to cum was slowly fading, Jisun’s tits and mouth were doing a number on you. She started licking the tip of your cock in a circular motion as her breasts thoroughly massaged you.

Jisun regretfully let go and slowly began to massage your balls using her tongue, coating them with another layer of saliva as she gently sucked on each individually.

“Come stand up so I can fuck you” you said, pulling on her hair.

As Jisun tried to get up, her legs were shaking. She didn’t have the strength to stand, causing her to fall back onto her knees.

“Such a shame. Being a bad girl and not listening to an order from your master” you said as you stuffed your cock back inside Jisun’s pretty mouth. She did her best to hold onto your thighs for balance as you began.

“Mmph! Mmhmmhph!”

Jisun’s moans were muffled as she tried to withdraw her head from your cock; but you stood firm, holding her still. You felt the back of her throat as she continued to take your cock for quite a long time.

“Hmmph!” one last moan from Jisun as she tapped your thighs repeatedly was enough for you to withdraw her head.

Jisun started coughing loudly, saliva dripping onto the floor as she struggled to catch her breath.

“Oh my god...” she said, while still coughing. “Oh my god...”

“Are you okay?” you asked, holding onto your cock while pressing it against her soft cheeks. You watched as your saliva spread onto her face as she Jisun closed her eyes and nuzzled against it.

“Yes, master” she said weakly. “I love your cock... please give me more”

You jammed your cock inside her again, pushing it against the sides of her mouth. Her tongue ran against the underside of your shaft as you began to roughly fuck her mouth. You wrapped her hair around your hand as her mouth bobbed up and down. The splashing sounds of her saliva and erotic moans felt amazing throughout your body.

“Mhmph! Mmmphmh!”

Jisun continued to gargle on your cock as you pushed her head down again. You forced her in place as she looked at you with extremely submissive eyes. She showed no signs of struggling, quietly taking the pounding your cock was giving her. You felt the back of her throat squeezing you until she slowly gagged.

Her eyes began to water, pleading for you to release your grip. You didn’t, wanting to punish Jisun for being a bad girl. But when you felt she’s finally had enough, you pulled on her hair. Jisun violently coughs once more as saliva rushed out of her mouth and left a large trail on your cock.

“I hope I wasn’t too rough” you said to Jisun, genuinely concerned about her.

Without warning, Jisun dives back onto your cock. The beautiful woman between your legs works magic with her mouth. Every movement of your shaft from her lips sends pleasure throughout your body. You look down and see a mess of brown hair as Jisun’s head bobs up and down.

Trying to keep the pleasure from overwhelming you, you do your best to savor it and relish in the fact that your beautiful blind date was on her knees in a very clean cafe restroom giving you one of the best blowjobs you’ve ever received.

“Jisun... that feels so good. Fuck, I’m about to cum” you said, knowing full well that’s what you’ve wanted to do the whole time.

Jisun bobs her head even faster as a response, starting at your tip and taking every inch until she reaches the base of your shaft. Her lips are wrapped tightly as her tongue is flattened and presses against your underside. Her gaze never leaves your own, as if begging you to finally erupt.

You closed your eyes, afraid staring at Jisun sucking your cock for too long would make you cum right away. You tried to prolong the euphoric feeling as much as you could. Jisun continued to work between your legs, her hands massaging your balls as her wet tongue glided across the underside of your head.

“Fuck... Jisun, I’m about to cum”

Jisun bobs her head up and down your shaft, as your orgasm finally arrives. You feel it from the top of your head all the way down to your toes. Your hands immediately grip the back of Jisun’s head as your cock erupts. You send hot, thick semen down the woman’s mouth and throat.

Your body shivers slightly as you hold her head in place. Jisun’s mouth is wrapped tightly around your shaft as you continue to drain your balls inside her. As your orgasm begins to wind down, Jisun feels your grip on the back of her head begin to weaken. She lifts her head from between your legs, releasing your tip with a loud pop. As you open your eyes, you see Jisun stare at you. She opens her mouth, revealing her tongue and mouth painted with your cum.

Her gaze is dangerously erotic as she closes her mouth and swallows your load in two gulps. She tilts her head back to put on a show for you as you watch her throat pulse with your semen being pushed down. Opening her mouth once more and humming in satisfaction, she sticks her bright pink tongue at you, letting you see she has swallowed it all. Kissing your tip several more times to consume the last few trickles of cum, she giggles as you lean against the sink, exhausted.

“You tasted so good, master”

Just then the door opened, causing both of you to look at who entered.

“Did my oppa satisfy you?”

“He did, Saerom unnie. That’s not fair you’ve kept him away from us! Nakyung and Gyuri would love swallowing his cum” Jisun said, wiping her mouth.

“Why would I share him with you whores? He’s my boyfriend. I only let you use him since I felt bad you haven’t gotten laid in months” Saerom said, untying her apron as she crossed her arms.

“Hmph, whatever. And he wasn’t able to fuck me, so I still have another chance with him!”

“As if! I only gave you one chance, it’s not my fault you couldn’t stand when he told you he was going to fuck you”

Jisun pouted, stroking your cock softly.

“You’ll fuck me next time, right?”
