Minotaur + Pregnancy kink?

Since you arrived in this strange world, you have been host to a number of strange beings’ spawn. There were the gnolls who licked your ripened breast incessantly. There were the naga who filled you with eggs and treated you like a god. There was the fairy who liked cumming inside you while you slept.

Your favorite though was this minotaur. He lived in a small herd, tucked in a single communal building. He was the herd’s leader, large (so large) and strong. His cows listened to his orders, growing a hay like substance which was used for food, bedding, basket weaving, and more.

He never ordered you to work, though. Instead he let you sit to the side and watch, often coming to check on you. He would place his hand on your stomach, feeling his child inside, squirming. Often times, if he was busy, he would send one of the cows to check on you instead, bringing you food and water. But he always kept you in his line of view.

You had gathered since you came here that the monsters were in crisis. They were struck by infertility and you, and some other humans you have only seen in passing, were brought by the god of this world to assist them.

You didn’t mind. While some of the monsters were rough, all of them still felt good. The minotaur was an excellent example. The day he got you, he screwed you in the field over and over until you were gushing seed in front of his cow. Then he took you back to the barn at night, let you eat, then fucked you again. It went on like this for days until he could ascertain you were growing his calf in your belly.

After that he grew more gentle, touching your tummy as he would stroke his cock between your thighs, speaking softly in a voice you didn’t understand. He looked like he might even love you. You couldn’t help but think maybe you would like to stay here. He was better than the other monsters you had and perhaps even better than the life you had on earth.

Gunna start using this universe of mine that I have been cooking more. It is so juicy. Humans are placed in a fantasy world full of monsters who are attracted to and want to breed with them. The longer the humans stay, the more they realize something is up with this world, like how monsters can only get pregnant or impregnate the humans, or how angels come down at times to save them from especially dangerous monsters that may kill them. Will def do a lore write up later!

I am confuse and a bit weary.

Sega of America Channel had posted an artwork describing the two as long lost siblings and in Shadow the Hedgehog Manual 2005 Maria sees Shadow as her brother.

Sega of Japan on the other hand embrace Shadaria, they even describe them as akin to Beauty and the Beast, save the katakana hashtag, and the official manga has Maria using daisuki to Shadow, common I love you trope for confessions in Manga and Anime.

Is there like a divide of lore between East and West fandom? I mean why are the two interpretations being split between Jp and America?

[dunkinbublin]

Hiya! First of all just want to say I absolutely ADORE your art, the way you draw the lil silly guys makes me wanna scream and put them in my pocket! :,)

Saw you were taking requests and kindaaaa vague but Tails reminding Shadow of Maria always makes me crazy if that’s something you’d be interested in or have any ideas for! <3

Maria Robotnik Is Still A Good Noodle

Seeing the new design for Maria in the Dark Beginnings clip made me want to doodle her again! I don’t usually draw anime styles, but I wanted to add some inspiration from the animation.

Anyways, here she is!

[blog-of-reaction]

So were they talking to someone in space at the end there?

[lucky-charms]

I was thinking.

Maria wanted to be strong for Shadow while Shadow was trying to be strong for Maria. And any time when one of them fell a part they had to pick up the others pieces. It’s like they were trying not to be valuable for the others sake. In the shorts Shadow would beat himself for not being perfect while Maria was carrying him through the difficult moments. Every thing related to Maria is smiling, angry or anxious but I never seen her get sad around Shadow. Shadow can be anxious, mad, and happy (and sometimes a little cheeky). We have seen him get sad once but force himself to stop.

What makes me sad is Maria was a child and Shadow was created for a purpose. They both carried some much for the other. They deserve normalcy and that’s all they wanted for each other. Maria said protect humanity but she probably would want him to live his life.

I think Rouge sometimes forgets that both of her dudes come from Basements in that while Omega bluntly inquires about whatever he doesn't know about, Shadow will go months pretending he knows what Rouge is referring to before quietly admitting he has no idea what shrimp is.

New Story time!

This one is dedicated to the ever so talented @cosmoshard, who made the rough sketch that inspired this piece in the first place,

also, this serves as some semi-revenge on her for making me cry on my birthday XD

This time, the story is focused the ARK siblings themselves, Shadow and Maria!

=========================================

“Are you almost done yet grandpa?” Maria impatiently rocked back and forth on her feet, earning a light wack on her head from a piece of paper. “Hey!”

“Hold still, Maria! Your back needs to be straight and still.” Gerald exclaimed, the marker he was holding nearly creating a mark on top of Maria’s head, taking a moment trying to rub the stain from her hair with his fingers.

Maria made a face at Gerald, moving her head away from his hands. “I am holding still, grandpa! I’m trying to make sure I’m getting taller!”

“Well, you’re not making it easier with you doing all this fidgeting.” He placed his hands and her shoulders to keep her still. “Now just keep still. And don’t stand on your toes either.”

The girl fought the urge to roll her eyes as her grandfather finally made a mark on the wall, drawing a straight line while she backed away, bouncing on her feet. “Ok, you’re all done.”

She looked among marks and lines from previous measuring sessions, seeing that the current one was hovering above the previous line.

She let out a gasp and started jumping up and down. “I grew! I got taller, grandpa! See, look at it!”

”Yes, yes I see it.” He gave a pat to her head, taking notes on his clipboard. He walked over to his desk with Maria following close behind him.

She moved in front of him while he continued to write. “I can’t believe the new line you drew was higher this time! How tall am I now?”

Gerald paused and lifted up one of the papers to read it. “Well, according to the results, you’ve grown…” He stopped mid sentence, a look of surprise. “Oh my, this is odd.”

Maria stopped her joyful skipping, sensing his change in tone. “What, what is it?”

”It says here that your height from this month is less than it was last month.” He hung his head down, sighing dramatically and placing a hand on her shoulder. “I’m afraid that you're shrinking, my dear.”

His granddaughter’s face went from worried to annoyed in a second flat, pushing his hand away and rolling her eyes. “Grandpa….”

The man chuckled at her unamused expression. “I’m only teasing, you’ve grown about a total of 6 inches from last month. You’re about 4’3 now. Almost getting to 5 feet already.”

Maria’s face lit up and did a celebratory dance with some spinning involved, nearly bumping into Gerald in the process and tripping over her feet. He quickly caught her before she fell over, slinging an arm around her and pulling her close to his side.

”My goodness, I’ve never seen you so excited about something like this before, may I ask why?”

Wrapping her arms around him, she raised her head with a wide smile on her face. “Because! It’s the first time I’ve gotten this tall in awhile. You always told me that healthy kids grow big and tall whenever they eat their veggies and get enough sleep, it’s finally working for me!”

The smile on Gerald’s face faltered when she finished by hugging him tighter. Bless this child for keeping her hope high with a statement like this.

He always told her when she was younger that those things were important to do, eating as much healthy food to keep her immune system from failing, getting enough sleep so her body can get its rest, even those times where he told her not to tell lies otherwise her nose would grow long each time she did.

It made him grateful knowing that these little things were making a difference for her in her lonely life up here in the colony, even though it felt like it was wrong giving her such high expectations for her condition, since there was no cure for it but making her think that something like this is actually helping her illness when in reality it would barely make a dent in it overall broke his heart even more.

He forced a smile on his face and squeezed her back. “You're very right on that. I told you it would work out eventually.”

Maria beamed a wide smile, skipping towards the door. “Where are you heading off to?” Gerald called after her, making her nearly slip on the floor when she slowed herself down.

“I'm going tell him about it!”

“Who?”

“Shadow! He's been wondering if I was getting better, I gotta go and tell him before he gets worried!” She ran out of the room as soon as she finished, her pigtailed hair flying out wildly behind her as she disappeared before the doors even closed.

Gerald stood there in ear numbing silence, his hands clenched up into fists as those last words lasting through his ears like a forever frozen echo.

‘Wondering if I was getting better’....

A grim expression masked over his face. “Oh my child, if only it were as simple as that for you.”
