﹙ʚɞ˚﹚. a/n: i loved writing this sm :( it's a little self indulgent but i still hope you'll like it! thank youu for requesting!! <333

Sunsets were your absolute favorite.

It might sound cliché or overrated, but witnessing such mesmerizing beauty whenever you were lucky enough to, genuinely made life worth living to an extent other things didn’t. Beauty was in the eye of the beholder but nobody could deny the one of a kind colors and the bright light that was slowly dimming with every minute that passed weren’t painting one of the most gorgeous pictures of them all. Mother Nature herself was the most talented artist after all, her creations admired all over the world by all sorts of people, even the ones who didn’t have a keen eye for the arts in the first place.

Yet somehow, the sunset was even more dazzling now while you were admiring it with Felix, your one and only who everyone was convinced was related to the sun himself.

Lowering your hands, you let the cheap film camera dangle from your wrist casually, the sand warm under you. “I’ve always loved taking pictures of the sky.”

Felix tears his gaze from the ocean, the warm breeze softly ruffling his long blond hair as he smiles. “I know. You never miss a photo opportunity, wiping out your phone and stopping everything we do to get that perfect shot.”

You return his smile, sheepishly, bumping your shoulder into his. “So, you’ve noticed.”

“Of course I have.” He admits like he couldn’t phantom someone not noticing, leaning closer and staring at you in such a way that had you believing he forgot all about the beautiful view in front for a moment. “Because while you’re busy staring at the sky, my eyes only see you.”

Your eyes widen, heat rushing to your face alarmingly as you finally turn to look at him. Wrong move, because the sight of him takes your breath away, especially since you’re close enough to notice every single detail that made Felix who he was. His freckles were not hiding behind any makeup, spilling all over his cheeks like actual constellations – the ones on his eyelids were always your favorite, having taken too many pictures of them to even count now – plump lips naturally pink and still stretched into a faint smile that only pulled you closer by your heartstrings, tugging at them and never really letting go.

The sun was setting, and there were numerous other couples around enjoying the view and the last days of warmth on the beach, but now you could only see him.

“Now you’re just lying to fluster me.” A giggle escapes you, awkward and shy as the beautiful shades of orange begin caressing his side profile, mesmerizing you.

Felix shakes his head instantly. “Why would I?” His hand finds yours on the sand, intertwining your fingers. “People find beauty in different things. So, while you’re enthralled by the sky and all of its colors, I’m bewitched by you and only you.”

Bewitched, like you were some sort of otherworldly being in his eyes, a piece of art deserved to be hung in a museum in its own separate section, surrounded by security 24/7.

You’ve never doubted Felix’s love for you but at the same time, you had no idea he regarded you so highly, in the same way you did him.

Without a second thought, you lean over and plant a lingering kiss on his cheek, feeling his smile widen before you get the chance to pull away, happiness radiating off of him.

“Sure, the sky is beautiful.” You nod, a little tongue-tied and emotional by his previous statement. “But there’s something I love capturing in pictures even more.”

His brows furrow, turning his whole mind upside down in search of the answer he’s looking for, sure you’ve told him about this before. There was no way he wouldn’t remember.

You reach to smooth out the skin and stop him from stressing. Felix beams in response, catching your fingers and bringing them to his mouth to kiss one by one.

The waves were crashing against the shore, bringing a rare serenity you and Felix could never get enough of as the sun seemed to pause its descent to also witness your love, giving you a few more moments of light.

“The moon?” He tries, thoughtful while bringing your hand to his chest.

You shake your head and almost close the distance between you to whisper. “You.”

Then, you kiss him, tenderly and softly like you’re afraid once you pull back and open your eyes he will disappear like he was nothing more than a fragment of your own imagination. Or a ray of sunshine personified whose time ran out and he needed to hurry home and be among his people, to allow the moon to take front stage.

Felix holds your hands like he feels the same, not believing someone like you was actually real and bothered to give him the time of day.

There is no rush or desperation, just two people who love each other like it wasn’t the first time, like they somehow met before in a past life and were separated by the cruel passing of time. Like soulmates destined to find each other over and over again, guided by the red string of fate that never tore no matter how far apart your paths were, or what obstacles dared to stand in your way.

When you pull away, he chases after you, pecking your lips repeatedly until he’s satisfied. But he doesn’t seem to get enough, deepening the kiss at the last second while pulling you even closer as he wraps an arm around your shoulders to feel you near.

The sun is almost gone when you come back for air, forehead resting against your lover’s as you both break into the biggest smiles, delighted to be together and make even more memories.

And for once in your life, you don’t mind missing a sunset for you found an even more beautiful view. 

[verysium]

how bllk boys would react when u draw them, could either be rlly good or rlly SHIT u choose idk (plz include barou and the itoshi bros) 😊😊😊 i love you and ur works, and the way u write the boys and ur content makes me laugh fr, one of my fave bllk authors mwjahaja 😓 have a great day, ily:3 and the icks post made me smile like all of ur posts do!

thank you so much anon ♡ this ask had me contemplating very seriously, so apologies if it's a bit late:

sae is definitely awestruck in some way, even if he doesn't immediately show it. i think i talked about this in a previous headcanon, but he has a deep-seated admiration for artists who can grasp abstract concepts because he himself cannot. he would be somewhat flattered if you drew him since he's never considered his own appearance to be particularly inspiring. would be appalled if you considered him your muse. like....why? to him, his looks aren't anything of importance (clearly he is blind.) would probably say your drawing was inaccurate but then hang it up by his nightstand so he can look at it every night before he goes to sleep. if you're a full-time artist, he probably keeps a little stash of your gifts in a small box beneath his bed. sometimes if he's having a bad day or he lost a game, he goes back and flips through them just to make himself feel better. secretly loves the way you draw his bangs and the little swoop you do in your signature.

kaiser corrects every single detail in your drawing. stands behind you and gives you little pointers here and there. he should have an 8-pack, not a 6-pack. his jawline isn't sharp enough in your initial sketch. poses shirtless in front of you so that way you can encapsulate the full extent of his sexiness. shows off your drawing to every living creature in existence. "isn't he handsome?" like...🙄 yeah, michael we know. he's probably the hardest to draw because of his tattoo, so i think he genuinely appreciates it when you put in the effort to capture his intricacies. will never admit this but he's low-key proud of you and your talent (mostly just your ability to make him look good.)

rin is one of those people who doesn't understand hyperrealism. like why does he need a highly detailed sketch of his face when he can just take a photo and print it out? i don't think he understands art in general. probably despises modern art too. he'd take one look at a rothko painting and be like....i could draw this too...in my sleep. similar to sae, i feel like he's just numb to the sentimentality of gift-giving. doesn't understand why you would waste your time drawing a little picture of him, but it does make his heart feel strangely fuzzier, so maybe he'll keep it this one time. lo and behold, months later he now has a collection of your drawings he doesn't have the heart to throw away. refuses to let isagi or anyone see them because they're meant for his eyes only.

yukimiya has impeccable taste. in fact, he's probably an artist himself. i think it'd be cute if you both drew little sketches of each other throughout the course of your relationship. but neither of you ever knew until you gifted him your sketchbook for christmas, and he was like....guess what...i drew you too. thinks you're pretty even when you don't think so. sometimes when you're having a coffee shop date, he scribbles a portrait of you on his napkin because the sunlight hit your cheek just right in that moment, and the birds were chirping, and he fell in love all over again. i think it's also tragic that he's slowly losing his eyesight, so he won't be able to enjoy your drawings and the vibrant colors you infuse into them. that's why he treasures them even more. probably thumbs over the pages from time to time. memorizes every stroke and line.

isagi likes the way you always draw that little tuft of hair that sticks up on the top of his head. it looks like a cute little bean sprout. he pins your drawings up above his bed next to a polaroid of you two in germany. buys you a professional art set for your birthday. if you're a digital artist, he buys you a new tablet and stylus.

bachira adds his own doodles next to yours except he makes a chibi version of everything. always pesters you to include his little fangs. uses the boldest combination of colors. he would definitely be a messy artist. paint everywhere. fingernails perpetually stained a different color. you both draw during class, so when you two trade notebooks to actually study......there aren't any actual notes.

barou acts like he doesn't know what to do with your drawing of him but then the next day you visit his house, and he's already put your artwork in a fancy picture frame. refuses to let anyone else even stand within a ten meter radius next to it because he doesn't want their "nasty fingerprints" all over your beautiful masterpiece.

Educating Gale: an intro to hatefucking

Thanks to @waterdeepwhiskey for this especially juicy piece of eye fucking 👀😫

Inspired by a lovely anon from @naughtybg3confessions.. behold dear ones!

Well fuck. This came out real fucking quickly - ha ha. Literally within an evening so apologies for any mistakes!

Premise: (See picture for prompt)

Gale x gn!tav • 18+ • MDNI • E rating

Tav POV, gn!tav, intro to hatefucking, mean, teasing, insults, cruelty to wizards, descriptions of rough sex/overstim/anal/etc, handjob, gn!description of genitals, no kissing, hot and heavy, mild choking, two fingers up to Mystra, consent, checking in

1.3k words

"Just stop fucking talking." Tav growled through their teeth, pushing Gale's robes down his arms as his back hit the wall.

"Excuse me, I think you'll find that one of a Wizard's greatest talents is their comprehensive lexicon," Gale objected, fumbling with Tav's belt, "but our mouths are good for more than just conversation." He added with sinful grin, leaning in for a kiss.

Tav flinched away, scruching their nose as his robes hit the floor, "Uh, no kissing. That's not what this is, Gale." They sneered at him, "We're just letting off some repressed emotion. Pure and simple." Tav stepped out of their camp trousers and swept them out of the way with a flick of their leg.

"I don't understand, then what exactly is this?" Gale asked, breath huffing out unevenly, as Tav attacked his belt buckle, "I thought this was to bury the animosity we've been harbouring for each other. We're clearly not the best of friends, Tav."

They sighed exasperated, apparently hatefucking was not a thing taught in his esteemed Blackstaff Academy.

"This," they began, sliding a hand down the front of his pants and gripping his thick, throbbing cock. Gale gasped and bunched their sleep shirt in his fist, "is just sex, Gale. Nasty, hateful sex."

They began pulsing his tip with two fingers, lightly squeezing against the sensitive part on the underside. Gale moaned and looked down to see them touching him.

"That's not what sex is supposed to be about," he objected, hissing at the sensation, "It's supposed to be about connection, admiration, care. It's supposed to be glorious, not hateful."

"Oh, poor, poor Wizard. You've been kept on a tight leash, huh?" Tav smirked, taking one of his hands and placing it roughly on their throat, "There's so much more to learn. There are many different types of sex. But there's only one I'd like to educate you on right now." Gale swallowed hard, his cock twitching at the sight of his hand wrapped around their neck.

"This is "I don't like you and you don't like me, but I still want to fuck you despite that - because of that" sex. Because because I don't like you, I'll do things to you that I wouldn't do to someone I liked."

Precum began leaking from his slit; it hit Tav low in their belly. Taking it as a non-verbal cue, their grip tightened on his member, and increased in fervour.

"The kind of things that I couldn't do to anyone else."

Gale shuddered and bucked against their palm, consciously bringing desperate hands to push his trousers further down his thighs, to afford Tav more room.

"Like?" He asked, breathless and trembling, his hold returning to their collarbone but not fully gripping.

Tav flicked their tonuge over their bottom lip and roughly gripped his jaw with a swiftness that made him gasp, bringing him an inch from their face.

"Like trapping that pretty, never-ceasing mouth between my thighs and riding it until I was satisfied it wouldn't start talking again." Tav purred with a dagger-sharp edge.

Gale moaned and pressed against their grip on his jaw, trying again to kiss them. He dug his fingertips into their hips deep enough to potentially draw blood, rocking them against him. They swallowed his gruff pants against their lips, as they worked him faster.

Fuck this was hot.

"I'll fuck your face to almost suffocation and I wouldn't care beause I despise you, Gale of Waterdeep."

Gale grunted and huffed, "I detest you.. you.. arsehole." He managed with great difficulty.

"Once more with feeling, dear." Tav jeered, "You can do better than that, surely? With your large.. vocabulary," Tav squeezed his thrumming length and Gale hummed, "I'm sure you can."

They slowed their rhythm against his cock to gently palm him, occasionally swirling the tip.

Gale scowled and twisted his face, gasping for words.

"You're vile and selfish.. and you do things for all the wrong reasons. You'd rather see a reward than do something philanthropic for your fellow man." He threw at them, curling his lip.

Tav scoffed, "Pathetic. I can already see that look into your eyes, Gale." They wound their fingers around his aching member and began pistoning once more. He let out a sharp yell he tried to silence and thud his head back against the wall.

Tav hummed in smug amusement, a wide smirk on their face.

"You're enjoying this. You know you've never felt anything quite like this before. That even though this is wrong and it feels dirty, it feels really. fucking. good." They punctuated their point by firmly pulsing his head in their grip.

Gale nodded desperately, leaning forward again, trying to press his lips to theirs. Tav gave him a withering look and he stopped, looking embarrassed.

"I can't wait to see the look on your face.." Tav snaked their hand to palm into his long hair, and pressed their wet mouth against the shell of his ear, "when you realise just how much you hate yourself because I made you come so hard your Goddess heard you scream my name."

"Fuck you." Gale spat, gripping a fistful of hair and yanking their head back. Tav moaned through their teeth and cackled.

Gale's body gave him away, even if he tried to deny it; the orb was glowing a radiant amethyst through his white, cotton undershirt. He was sweating and gasping, he was so tense and coiled to explode, he wouldn't take 30 more seconds to come in their hand.

Tav roughly grabbed onto the back of his neck, sweat slick from exertion.

"I'll make you cry from overstimulation.. from too much pleasure because you're nothing but an arrogant, self important arsehole that thinks he's a God's gift. When in reality, you're nothing but a picked over little slut who had everything and lost it all. Now you're just a sad, shit-eating, glorified Librarian who couldn't take care of a Kobald without help." Tav ridiculed and dropped his cock, sharply pushing off his stomach, stepping backwards to the table they knew was behind them.

Gale stood breathing heavily, utterly dumb-founded and painfully erect.

A sheen of sweat clung to his muscular frame, reminding them of how Gods damned tasty he'd looked in the Grymforge. What they wouldn't have given to licked, bitten and sucked every single inch of him.

Tav sat against the table and tilted their head to the side, leaning back to expose themselves fully to him.

Gale swallowed thickly, his erection twitched with desire, as his mouth hung open.

"Now you," They proffered with a gesture, "or do you need some more lessons on what it is we're doing here?" Tav smirked, narrowing their eyes at him.

It took a few seconds, before thoughts eventually flashed behind his eyes.

"So, by these new measures, I could.. push you against a window and fuck you against it from behind, so that everyone could see what a disgusting, lecherous whore you are?" He spat, a darkness across his face.

Tav grinned wide and filthy, "Now you're getting it." They winked at him with a salacious smile.

"That I could spread your arsehole wide and fuck you raw and unyielding until your sobbing underneath me?" He rumbled, his brown hair falling in curtains to shade his beautiful face, as he stalked towards them.

Now it was Tav's turn to swallow hard.

"Give it your worst, Wizard. Make it hurt." Tav snarled though a rough whisper, as they lay back flat against the table.

Gale's luminous chest heaved as he seized the collar of their shirt and ripped it apart, buttons scattering, pattering to the floor. He loomed over them, placed a hand on their throat and began to squeeze, "Oh trust me, I intend to." He threatened, as Tav's nerve-endings buzzed.

A deliciously, disgusting smile erupted between the two of them, the tension between them electric. Gale's grip increased and it sparked desire through their chest, their eyes rolling back in their head. Tav moaned through their teeth, their core pulsating with need.

Gale bit his bottom lip and groaned, as he bent down to gather the back of their knees in the crooks of his arms. He spread them aloft and viciously spat on their eagerly awaiting hole. He blindly rubbed his cock against the length of their saliva spattered sex and threw his head back, growling a whimper to himself.

He snapped his gaze back to theirs, uncertainty in his eyes, "Are you sure? You're sure you want this-want it like this?"

Tav softened - just a little bit, "You have my most enthusiastic consent. The safe word can be 'Elminster'." Tav grinned, reaching up to pat his head, "That should kill the mood enough, right?"

Gale rolled his eyes and laughed, "Undoubtedly so. I mean, even before his unbidden visit to camp begrudgingly delivering Mystra's missive to use the orb to end myself and the Absolute. I can assure you that-"

"-Gale.." Tav began reaching between themselves to align his cock to their pleading entrance, "Do shut the fuck up."

SSR Jack Howl - Platinum Jacket Vignette

"Happy 100th Anniversary"

[Land of Dawning – National Museum of Art]

Jack: Oh, this painting has wolves in the snow chasing an intruder that was romping through their territory. Very brave of them.

Jack: And this painting… Ah, it's a wolf that raised an orphaned baby. Didn't know one did that.

Jack: There's so many wolves to be proud of.

Jack: ―Ah, oops. I can't help lingering whenever I see a painting of wolves. Since they invited me all the way out here, I should take a look at the other stuff as well.

Jack: Hm? What's that painting of those animals over there…?

???: Oho? This is quite the tasteful art piece.

Jack: Oh you're… Malleus-senpai. So, you like this one, too?

Malleus: Indeed. It is truly a scene to behold that I could not help myself stopping before it.

Malleus: The sight of the baboon walking through the throng of animals, all whom have their heads bowed, is majestic and beautiful… Whatever could they be doing there?

Jack: I think this is… Yeah, a depiction of when all the animals gathered to celebrate the birth of their prince.

Jack: The baboon in the center there was respected by all the other animals as a real capable sorcerer.

Jack: Not only was he an amazing mage, he was also good at drawing, and was real strong, too.

Jack: Don't you think that's amazing? It's only natural that he'd remain in the history books, especially being that skilled.

Malleus: True, those with exceptional talents have a charming tendency to attract the attention of others.

Malleus: And you, Howl, seem to have quite the font of knowledge, with how you to readily are able to answer my queries...

Jack: Heh, I just a thing or two about the history of animals, since I'm a beastman, and all. Back when I was a kid, I'd have a ton of picture books, and I'd hear all about them.

Jack: But I think it was the tales of the King of Beasts that really made me actually go to the library and want to study more on it.

Jack: Take the fact that he was the leader of his pride. He must've been a head above everyone else in all his abilities.

Malleus: Heh… I'm certain that was the case. At any rate, it sounds to me as though this conversation has lit a fire inside of you.

Malleus: You seem to have some form of attachment to the King of Beasts.

Jack: I wouldn't say attachment… I just respect the way he pursued his life.

Malleus: Respect, I see. Well then, have you ever thought of seizing the position of pack leader as the King of Beasts did?

Jack: Nah. I don't like being part of a pack, and I'm not one for leadership.

Malleus: Oho? I was under the impression that wolves hunted in packs.

Jack: If we have the same end goal, sure, I'll team up with whoever. But it's not like I'll obediently wag my tail for everyone.

Jack: A pack leader needs to be wiser and more responsible than anyone else.

Jack: If the guy at the top makes the wrong judgement, then everyone else will suffer.

Malleus: So, you consider "wisdom" to be the key trait of a leader?

Jack: I mean, it's not enough to just be wise. They also have to be physically strong. There are folk out there that'll use sly and cowardly methods to do what they want.

Jack: If they don't have the strength to completely crush 'em down, they're not worthy of that spot at the top.

Malleus: Heh… You sure do tout some lofty expectations, Howl.

Jack: I just don't like compromising. And, since these are expectations, there'd be no point into setting them so low in the first place.

Jack: Sometimes people say I'm overly conscious, or a pain to deal with, but… So what?

Jack: No matter what anyone else might say, I follow what I believe in. I decided that long ago.

Malleus: Heh, I see that you're a rather stubborn one, Howl. However, I cannot say that pride is a terrible thing to have.

[Land of Dawning – National Museum of Art]

Jack: So, this museum also has a painting of a young lady wishing at a well, huh.

Jack: Back home… I mean, in the Shaftlands, you'd see this pretty much everywhere, but it's been a while since I've laid eyes on one, myself.

Malleus: Hm? Is this painting that well known in the Shaftlands?

Jack: Not really this painting, so much as the actual story behind it. To the point where you'd see artwork based on it displayed all over the country.

Jack: You'll get people tryin' to make a wish in the well like she does, too.

Jack: My little sister'll run to a well every time she sees one. Not like there's any proof that it'll grant her wish, but she still does.

Malleus: You make it sound as though you've never wished upon a well, Howl.

Jack: Uh, well… I did try when I was a kid… But only once.

Malleus: Oho, and why was that?

Jack: At the moment I tried to cast my wish, I fell into the well…

Jack: At the time, I was a little too short to look over the edge of the well. So, I tried to hoist myself over the rim, but I put a little too much oomph into it.

Jack: It was an old well, so there wasn't any water, but a huge pile of fallen leaves, so I didn't get hurt… But it did startle me pretty bad then.

Jack: On top of that, that well was in the middle of the forest, where people didn't really walk past. No matter how hard I yelled, no one came by.

Malleus: What misfortune. However, as you are standing here before me today, I must assume that someone did indeed come and save you.

Jack: Nope, I got out by myself. Luckily, the inside of the well had real blocky walls, so I was able to use them as footholds as I climbed out.

Jack: But that definitely wasn't easy. Back then, I wasn't training or nothing, so I didn't really have any muscles, either.

Jack: I thought I was going to fall so many times, but somehow, I got out of there…

Jack: As soon as I got out of the well, I collapsed, 'cause I was so exhausted and just couldn't move for a while.

Jack: I really thought I was in a huge pinch there, but… At the same time, I was also a pretty impressed.

Malleus: Impressed…?

Jack: Yeah. I was having trouble just climbing up to the edge of the well in the first place, but then I was able to climb the whole well up to the surface.

Jack: I was able to do something that I didn't think I'd be able to do. That means that any wish can be granted…

Jack: SO LONG AS I HAVE STRENGTH AND MUSCLES!!!

Jack: So, basically, anytime I'd have extra time that would have otherwise been spent wishing on a well, I just worked out, instead.

Malleus: Fufu, you truly found an extreme approach… But I see. Essentially, this incident was not completely misfortunate.

Jack: Yeah, I'd say so. I think I'm how I am now, because of what happened there.

Jack: Now that I'm thinking of why I got into all this training, I kind of want to work out now.

Jack: When I get back to campus, I'm going to throw myself into my training even more, so that I can overcome anything I encounter with my own power!

[Land of Dawning – National Museum of Art]

Jack: The Queen of Hearts, huh… I feel like I see her depicted alongside animals a lot.

Malleus: True. However, that is a rather unusual bird.

Malleus: It appears to be a flamingo; however I've never seen a lime green one in my life.

Jack: From what I heard, in the country that the Queen of Hearts ruled over there were flamingos of various colors, not just pink.

Jack: When Heartslabyul do their traditional croquet tournaments, they use magic to color the animals to match this tale.

Malleus: Oho? You certainly know much about this.

Jack: Me and those two from Ramshackle got invited by Ace and Deuce to play croquet with them, so…

Jack: It's just something I heard back then.

Jack: …Ugh, man. Talking about it reminded me of how I lost pretty bad then.

Malleus: Those in Heartslabyul are quite familiar with croquet. Is it not surprising to lose to them?

Jack: Even if I've never played it before, I'm usually pretty good at any sport I try. Only…

Jack: The croquet they play in Heartslabyul has real weird rules, and you need to get the animals to work with you.

Jack: During our game, the flamingo and hedgehogs were nervous only with me, so they didn't move like I was hoping they would.

Jack: They weren't scared of Grim and [Yuu], even though they were also playing with us...

Jack: The fact that I lost without being able to do anything really frustrates me.

Jack: Or more like… Can that game even be called a sport, in the first place?

Malleus: Certainly, I would agree that it is a far cry different from what one would consider an ordinary sport. I was also surprised when I first observed it.

Jack: You think so too, right!? It's just weird, needing to work alongside the animals like that...

Jack: Seeing that all the sport-loving types in my dorm haven't ever played it before…

Jack: I really don't think they could even be put in the same category. But I can't deny that I did lose the game.

Jack: When the next time comes that I play croquet with them, I can't show a terrible display like that again.

Jack: So that just means that I have to keep up in my Animal Linguistics classes!

Malleus: I see. So, ever since you lost, you've been continuing to improve yourself.

Malleus: They do say that the languages of smaller animals is rather difficult to absorb. Good for you, putting your all into even a mere game.

Jack: That's 'cause I don't want to lose the same game twice. Next time, I'll make Ace and Deuce lose face.

Malleus: Fufu, I shall hope for your efforts to be successful.

Malleus: ―Well then, I shall make my way to a different exhibit. You should also make an effort to look at some more of your favorite paintings.

Jack: …There he goes. He just does his own thing, huh? I really don't know what goes through his head.

Jack: Well, whatever. I guess I'll head towards another exhibit too. …Hm? This painting…

Jack: Ah, a lion prince, and his hornbill attendant. Heh, how can such a pathetic lookin' lion really become king?

Jack: I'll only ever accept someone strong. If they're to be king, they need to have the power to crush all greedy and sleazy people down.

Screenshot and video cam record this ask please.

Slimurgical shows himself a skilled veteran detective of crime scene investigation and he puts out Froot Apricot The Lich on her lies related to her poorly edited document on her husband. Slimurgical's words.

"With blue being him and green being You, I actually do wonder this myself because managing a stove is pretty easy, so why not just answer him in more or less both cases of it being difficult for you, or of it being easy for you? If you don't want posts like this, don't put your dirty laundry on the internet.

People who want others to look at them positively aren't going to do that when you post private texts between you and someone else where you. checks notes

Refuse to create a joint bank account as a married couple, or just simply answer questions that get presented to you… by the one you Chose to Marry.

Considering his apparent standards in this post as well, it seems he was actually patient due to never bringing up his stance on yuri prior to seeming to be fully done with you. Usually when people are determined "We're done" they will literally dump every tiny reason onto the table so as to make it irreversible for themselves and to create no true way back to guarantee a way forward is created.

So Froot. Why can't you manage a stove but 200 layers on a canvas is fine?

Also yes, I didn't read your written paragraphs because if you can't paint the same picture with the photographic evidence of what is some random bullshit I shouldn't be able to visibly access without doing something worth extradition over, then it's pretty obvious you are lying out your ass, and low and behold, you are.

He stopped expressing himself with you because he wanted you to leave him alone, it's the downside of including the timestamps rofl. I can literally tell he was just done at the point of those screens at the top because you can scroll down not even ten pages and literally see essays from him.

The amount of "this is necessary" of this is so astronomically negative that honestly this has killed VShojo for me, considering how every member of it has expressed support for this.

You people are creators 500x bigger and probably 10000x more successful than me for fuck sake and you're doing this? If you need a hugbox (which I can understand the need for) it's not any part of Twitter, it's a group chat with your fellow genmates for crying out loud.

Like for christ sake my girl, why do you even feel the need to reveal this at all? Do you think people will feel bad for you and look at your stuff more? Because they won't.

You cannot build a real audience who could also double as clients to a degree off the back of pity partying no matter how real or fake the event in question was. If I mentioned the same stuff but it was real, nobody would look at my art more because of it. People didn't look at my art more when I was about to go homeless and needed the comms money.

I honestly wonder how the admin of VShojo feel about this, because I genuinely will be done if they're fine having someone so genuinely honorless and disrespectful to someone they Married in their employ and representing their brand. Speaking purely from a professional standpoint, this kind of thing is a PR black hole and can never be anything else considering there was no evidence of any wrongdoing done against you. A brand that has this associated with them will never last, it's the kind of thing that stays under wraps and the usually creator themselves leaves to leak it themselves if it's legitimate, considering talent agencies have Managers that the Talent essentially uses like someone form AA would use a Sponsor, or someone else would use a Mentor or a Master in an apprentice Master relationship.

It's evident that it's not real because A. if it was, you'd take it to the cops, he might not be black so the UK would love to prosecute, B. if it was, you'd take it to your manager and the answer would not have been "Leak private communications and make a really bad attempt to slander him" because like… girl for real? You didn't even try to edit the screenshots, just chopped out important context chunks in places to the point that some pages are half empty and you couldn't even be bothered to combine the screenshots so they all created a uniform length so you could… idk, not have 90 pages in a document most people will never read let alone scroll through and will only opt to parrot the people autistic enough to do so themselves. I've combined screenshots better.

If he assaulted you, where are the hospital reports of battery injuries alongside proof his DNA was found near them?

Delete the post until you get real evidence that justifies wasting your audience's time with something that isn't part of your proudly displayed purpose of Content Creator for Vshojo or your still proudly displayed purpose of Artist. On behalf of all artists who want to see people create than flinging shit, I am literally begging you.

Until I see real evidence, this is Ego farming and as a result you need to get over yourself.

Sincerely, a fellow Creator who is sick and tired of watching creators try and destroy instead of create, considering this literally accomplishes nothing.

I haven't shared my abuse trauma stories, and I never will because nothing productive will happen when everyone knows my scars."

I wasn't really planning on changing my con table layout for next year, cuz y'know, if it ain't broke, etc etc. (and also I've been Struggling but we don't talk about that) But then I got to thinking (dangerous activity) and I got Ideas (dangerous consequences) and now I'm... basically changing the whole thing, whoops 😅

I was just writing down the possibilities that occurred to me, but that wasn't working very well it terms of visualizing the full picture. And then I remembered I'd posted a pic of my table from last year (we don't talk about this year 😑) and so I got it, popped it into krita and

Behold my amazing artistic talents! 🤣

My sister's got some displays and stuff that she's not gonna use anymore, so I'm gonna go over at some point to see what I can take, and then I'll know what I have to make myself (or conscript my brother to make for me, whichever comes first) to achieve that beautifully detailed vision. Who knows, maybe this is what I need to actually feel excited about the con again.

Recalled • Part 3 • 25 - Hayden

Previous • Series Masterlist • Part 3 Masterlist • Next

There are so many unanswered questions that flow through Hayden’s mind. Just a few days ago he met the Recall of someone he used to know, and how that person had made friends with Rewinds who had parts of Starkey. He was baffled when he heard the news talk about how scientists planned on using the parts of Mason Starkey, low and behold they did. 

And then there’s Connor, where is he? Sure, Hayden is pretty confident that his brother, Lucas, goes to the American School of Marseille. However, Hayden knows as much as anyone else that European countries are tiny compared to Western ones, well, except for Russia. 

Connor could be anywhere in France, well not really, admittedly anything past Valence would be a pain to commune to. 

With the subject peeking his interest once again Hayden logs into their social media and home page.

Checking the social media page he finds the picture of the Lacrosse team again, with Lucas Saltries still tagged. Out of curiosity, Hayden clicks on the tag, it links to a page that is surprisingly not private. It seems like Lucas likes filling his page with recordings of his music and screamo makeup looks that would make any parent drop dead. 

There's a video in particular, showing a freeze frame of someone playing an electric guitar behind his drum set, which is visible in every video. Clicking into the video Hayden finds that it’s not just the drums and an electric guitar playing, there’s also the sound of a keyboard playing in the background. 

It takes a while, but eventually, the music stops and to Hayden’s surprise the unmistakable voice of Connor and Risa can be heard.

“You did something different this time.”

“I set the keyboard to have more bass.”

“It sounds good.” A different voice says Hayden can only assume it’s Lucas based on the way it sounds.

Hayden looks at the caption under the video “A bit of Music made with my brother and @Wionplayspiano.”

Finding a link to another account Hayden clicks into it, and the display name reads “Mademoiselle Wion” he soon realizes the entire page is in French, but that’s nothing the “see translation” button can’t fix. 

Hayden finds that nowhere on the page does it mention a first name for Mademoiselle Wion, it gives him a lick of doubt if this is even Risa at all. Perhaps Connor found a new, equally talented girlfriend, and Hayden just remembers Risa’s voice incorrectly. He keeps scrolling, all of her posts are of songs made by popular artists on her own keyboard until he gets to one of her first posts. “A Memoir” it reads, Hayden thinks it sounds familiar, but when Mademoiselle Wion gets to the chorus it hits him like a brick wall. It’s the tune he used to hear Risa play on the piano when he took his breaks from being in the ComBom all day, no doubt, Mademoiselle Wion is Risa Ward, or perhaps now Risa Wion.

Well, it answers one of Hayden’s questions, Connor and Risa are alive, but he hasn’t narrowed down where they are yet. 

He returns to Lucas’ page, the last video looped, something catches Hayden’s eye and he smirks, the guitarist, Lucas’ brother, has a shark tattoo.

There’s no tagged location on any of Lucas’ posts, Hayden didn't think there would be. Brains don’t always run in the family, but if Connor wouldn't give away his location Hayden doesn’t think Lucas would give it away either. 

Hayden swaps tabs to the school’s home page. Lucas’ face as well as his teammates’ flashes in the slideshow presented on the main page, but Hayden is afraid he’ll have to go a bit deeper. Hayden has gotten better at hacking since his first search for Connor. He easily passes into the personnel portal and into the student list, and his stomach drops a little. Hayden feels sick and perverted as scrolls through the list of names, feeling even sicker when tidbits of personal information pop up next to the students’ names. 

He finally breathes a breath of fresh air when he gets to the name Lucas F. Saltries, he clicks into it. The first thing that shows up is his contact list. Claire Saltries, his mother, Kirk Saltries, his father, and Robert Saltries, his older brother. Hayden recognizes the name Robert from the identity Connor was given after the clapper attack, E. Robert Mullard. Hayden writes down the phone number associated with him, saving it for later.

Hayden scrolls down more on Lucas’ info page. And, Bingo! His location of residence, cross-referencing it with an online map, he furrowed his eyebrows, there’s reviews on the residence.

Translating them, they’re reviews from neighbours talking about how nice and quiet the house is despite being a foster home. Looking into a street view Hayden realizes something about the home, there are blackout curtains on all the windows. The gears turn in Hayden’s mind, and they all click together, that’s no foster home, that’s an unwind safehouse. 

After all that thinking Hayden takes a deep breath of air, then immediately squeals of joy. He’s done it, he’s found Connor Lassiter, he does a little happy pace around his apartment before sitting back at his desk to look at the number he wrote down.

Before he types the number in he switches the location of his phone into a server in France near Connor. God forbid he gives Connor’s location away to any secret authority. 

After typing Connor’s, or rather Robert’s phone number, he's met with a voicemail.

“Allo! Vous êtes sur le voicemail de Robert Saltries, veuillez laisser un message après le bip. Hi! You’ve reached Robert Saltries’ voicemail, please leave a message after the beep.”

The beep stalls Hayden, but only for a second. “Hi Con-Robert, Robert, It’s me, Hayden, I’m not actually in France like the unknown number location might give you, I didn't want any of us to be charged. Anyway, I found you!” He sings, “Don’t worry, it wasn’t easy finding you, you covered your ass very well, anywho, nice catching up! Bye!” He ends the call. Hayden lets out another squeal of joy as he prances around, sure he didn’t get to actually talk to Connor but, knowing that somewhere out there, he was able to reach him is just as good of a feeling.

Hayden feels the need to share his newfound information, of course, he can’t share it online, and he shouldn’t necessarily share this information with his networking friends. So unfortunately for Hayden’s random email contact, Roland, he’ll have to do.

He calls up Roland using the phone number attached to his email, this time he actually reaches someone.

“Hi?..”

“Hi, Roland!”

“Oh, Hayden… Why are you calling me?”

“I’ve got some news! I’m not sure if you’ll consider it good or bad.”

“Uhh, ok?”

“I found Connor! Well, Robert, he changed his name to Robert.”

“Like, is he here in the U.S.?!”

“No, he’s in France, I had to do some illegal snooping on websites.”

There’s a bit of silence before Hayden hears Roland’s voice again.

“I think I’d be more concerned if a Rewind didn’t use the muscle memory from my legs to break into my house.”

“What!?”

“Oh yeah, forgot to tell you, Nero and Sam are fine, the whole dividing thing was a lie made up by the media.”

“Y-you’re just gonna skip past that house invasion comment?”

“I mean it was scary at first, but then I realized it was just Nero, she just wanted to ask me to come to the arcade.”

“Okay…”

“So… how have you been?” Roland asks.

“Well, not much has changed since you last called, you’re aware that I’m, like, a celebrity now.”

“What! No! I just thought ya ran a podcast, I only heard of you through a Rewind.” Roland pauses, “Which reminds me, how do you eat Fun Dip?”

“Did you just say ya and you in the same sentence?” Hayden giggles.

“Just answer the question!”

“Ha! I don’t know, sometimes I use the stick, sometimes I just shovel it in.”

Hayden hears a small mischievous cackle emit from his phone, “Well, I’ve answered your questions, so now it’s my turn to ask, how have you been doing? 

“I wouldn’t say much better than last time, I am starting my new meds today so maybe that’ll make me better?”

“What are they for?”

“My back, it’s in a lot of pain, most of the time, even before I was unwound.”

“So you’re telling me that if someone had just hit you in the right spot, you would’ve been totalled?”

“Angry and totalled… don’t get any ideas.”

Hayden laughs, “I won’t.”

“I’m surprised Connor didn’t realize it when he friggin’ shoved me-” There’s the sound of mouth clicks in the background, then Roland shakily tells him, “Hayden, Hayden I can’t feel anything!..”

Another fixation

Hi hello. My sisted suggested we see a breakdance battle last Saturday and I agreed. My socialization levels were dropping drastically so it was a good chance to get entertained as well as see some outside world (not the one where I just go outside for work, come back home and don't get out until the next morning).

Oh, boy, there were so many people. The battle was fire, the floor was on fire, I was on fire. It is quite difficult to describe all in one post but let me say that I was thrilled. I have never seen so many talented people in one room. The opportunity to see the top dancers of the country was an amazing experience. It was also a sight to behold.

When the battle finished and the winners were annouced we were about to head out to the exit, however, we saw some people confidently walking to the stage and taking pictures with the participants. Consequently, we thought why don't we try to get some too.

I actually did not think that it would work out because of the number of people and how small we are.

We actually managed to get pictures and talk to them briefly, just thank for the show and wish good luck on the upcoming events.

Uhh, now we get to the most memorable part which is the male winner. I mean, I am attracted to men so it is quite natural for me to fall for a hard working, kind, good looking man.

Well, fast forward 3 days and I am still thinking about him. Huge thanks to how active he is on Instagram because he updates his stories almost every day. I get content constantly. This is awesome and terrible at the same time. I can't stop thinking about how cool he is judjing from his posts and the way of life he is leading and promoting. My sister is also suspecting him to be an ENFJ which is my favourite type of people.

So, yeah, it's been quite long since I was inspired by actual people. I am just happy that I get the chance to view his posts and generally know that such an amazing man like him exist in this world.

Gotta work now. See you later when I get another burst of emotions.

LACMA Art+Film Gala

2022

The LACMA Art+Film Gala is a spectacular event that brings together the worlds of art, film, fashion, and entertainment. It is an annual celebration that showcases the seamless integration of visual arts and cinematic excellence. Supported by Gucci, the Art+Film Gala is a testament to their longstanding commitment to the arts. The red carpet of the LACMA Art+Film Gala is a sight to behold, as A-list celebrities grace the event in their finest attire. From stunning gowns to impeccable suits, the fashion choices reflect the creativity and individuality of the attendees. Gucci, known for its artistic collaborations, is often a prominent feature on the red carpet, adding an extra touch of style and luxury. Beyond the glitz and glamour, the Art+Film Gala serves a greater purpose. It raises funds to support LACMA's mission of promoting art and culture, ensuring that future generations have access to the transformative power of creativity. Through this event, LACMA continues to foster a vibrant artistic community and inspire a deep appreciation for the intersection of art and film.

The LACMA Art + Film Gala is an annual event that celebrates outstanding individuals in the art and film industry. This year, it was sponsored by Gucci and honored the filmmaker Park Chan-wook and the artist Helen Pashgian. The proceeds from the gala support upcoming exhibits, purchases, and educational initiatives, which is such a wonderful cause. Backstage, I had the opportunity to take some pictures with the incredible stylist and event chair, Eva Chow, as well as the stunning supermodel Kendall Jenner. It was such a surreal moment to be surrounded by such talented and influential individuals. On the red carpet, I felt like a true icon of grace and elegance. I wore a breathtaking black hooded dress by Saint Laurent, specially created for me as their global ambassador. The dress featured a captivating hood, adding a touch of mystery and sophistication to my look. The form-fitting silhouette and dramatic train added an elegant touch, making me feel like a princess.

To complete my ensemble, I carried a chic black clutch and wore a bold gold bracelet, adding a touch of glamour to my outfit. My golden blonde hair, styled with a one-sided braid, provided a striking contrast to the all-black ensemble. And my makeup was kept natural-looking, enhancing my features and allowing my innate beauty to shine through. Throughout the evening, I had the opportunity to mingle with fellow celebrities and artists, sharing our passion for art and film. It was a magical experience, and I felt so grateful to be a part of such a prestigious event. I also took some breathtaking photos on my hotel balcony, showcasing the stunning Saint Laurent gown against the backdrop of the LA cityscape bathed in the golden-orange hues of the sunset. It was truly picture-perfect! Thank you LACMA Art + Film Gala for inviting me to such a wonderful event. And a special thank you to YSL and Anthony Vaccarello for dressing me in this stunning dress. I am so grateful for the love and support I received throughout the evening.

Unleashing Black Friday Madness: A Snarky Take on the Unlocking Frenzy!

Ah, Black Friday – the day we all pretend to be Olympic sprinters racing for deals. Picture this: Cellunlocker.net, the superhero of unlocking services, is throwing a Black Friday 2023 party. Buckle up for the unlocking spectacle, and of course, the "limited time only" drama on November 24th. Grab a snack; this is gonna be good.

Unlocking Deals Without Unleashing the Laughs:

🗓️ November 24th, 2023, the day when time stops (or so they say) for Cellunlocker.net's Black Friday extravaganza. Because unlocking services are the new rock 'n' roll.

The Star-Studded Samsung Lineup: You Didn't Know You Needed It:

🌟 Behold, the Samsung models parade: S22, S23, Z Fold 3, Z Fold 4, Z Flip 3, Z Flip 4 – because why settle for a phone when you can have a mouthful of a model name?

Note: The unlocking magic extends to other models too, but who cares when you can shout out these fancy names?

The BLKFRDY23S Code: Because Simplicity is Overrated:

✨ Enter BLKFRDY23S – a code so secret, it's practically printed on the side of a blimp. For all services, mind you. Because exclusivity is so last season.

FAQs for the Curious Souls (Read: Suckers for Punishment):

🤷‍♂️ Q: Can I use BLKFRDY23S for other things, like, life?

A: Sure, try it. Maybe it unlocks your hidden talent for making great life choices.

🤔 Q: Are older models supported?

A: Of course! Just like that quirky relative who insists on wearing bell-bottoms in 2023, we've got love for the classics.

Why You Should Care (Or Not):

🎭 Black Friday Drama Unleashed: Witness the chaos, the passion, and the questionable life decisions. Because nothing says "savings" like elbowing someone for a toaster.

🕰️ Limited Time Magic: Don't blink; it's November 24th – the one day when time obeys Cellunlocker.net's command. Unlock the clock, unlock the deals, unlock the… you get the drift.

🤷‍♀️ BLKFRDY23S Wonder: It's not a superhero name; it's a discount code. But hey, in the world of Black Friday, anything goes.

In Conclusion: Black Friday 2023 – where unlocking phones is the new currency of cool. Dive into the madness at Cellunlocker.net, or don't. Either way, your smartphone will probably still autocorrect your profound thoughts into something entirely different. Happy unlocking, my fellow deal-chasers! 📱✨

I know I haven't been updating as much but it can't be helped! School has started and I just completed my assignment, for now, and it's already the fourth week of the school semester.

(GIF Source: Gifer thru' Google Image Search)

Anyway, this is just a general update of my gaming progress on some of the games I play.

1️⃣ Death's Door

(Picture Source: IGN thru' Google Image Search)

I have been playing Death's Door during my exam period in the upper half of the year, and if there's anything I took away from the gaming experience is...

If you are feeling super stress about your exam, play Death's Door. All of that stress will be converted into gaming energy which allows you to advance the game faster than you'd expect.

Well... that is, up to the Bull Run phase for me. Yeah, I am quite stuck at the Bull Run phase. It's not the Bull Run part which I am stuck at but rather the mini boss fights with the Lord of Doors that I am stuck at. I am fine with the ones at the beginning and at the Witch's Estate, but the subsequent ones just got me. I think it will take another miracle for me to be able to advance to Phase 2.

2️⃣ Sky Children of the Light

I got to admit that I have been extremely inactive with the game. I think I have reach the point where I want to momentarily quit the game and focus on other things.

Although the new season boast a new area and an extremely beautiful scenery, I just couldn't bring myself to log in and play the game. I think, sadly, this will have to be goodbye for now. Of course, I am not going to uninstall the game but possibly let it rest on the shelves.

3️⃣ Honkai Star Rail

Another game I am super stuck at... not saying that it is difficult but rather I don't have the right characters in facing off the alchemist. So I did something which made my wallet cry...

Yeah, I pulled on the gacha and lo and behold! I GOT BAILU!!

LOOK AT HER! SHE IS SO CUTE! LOOK AT THAT ADORABLE FACE!! I CANNOT BELIEVE I FINALLY GOT THIS LITTLE CUTIE PIE!!

Ahem!

Anyway, yeah, now that I have Bailu who has really good healing, I thought I could try bringing her to face the alchemist and hopefully I can finally advance the game progress!

I mean, the game is kinda boring for me now because I am stuck at that part and there is literally nothing else for me to do except farm. But renewed vigor has taken over and I pray that Bailu will help me see the end of the tunnel!

4️⃣ Genshin Impact

Most of my game progress happens in Genshin Impact. There is quite a lot to talk about, but I will try to summarise.

First, I didn't know that Venti's signature weapon was the Elgy of the End... I have the bow, I have Venti, I just never equipped it on him. So, my poor soul was practically screaming at the screen every time I tried to level up his weapon because it also means I cannot touch the weapons I am building at that point. And resources are so scarce as a higher AR level player. I even wrote in to Hoyoverse asking them to provide us a better solution in getting those Mystic Enchantment Ore, like how we can easily get Mora and Character Exp Books from the Leylines on a daily basis with just the limit of our resin. Anyway, that's just my opinion about the weapon level up system.

Secondly, I have finally completed both Tighnari and Ganyu's character builds. What surprises me was how OP Ganyu is and how fun it was to use Tighnari. Now with both Tighnari and Ganyu out of the way, I can finally focus on building up Dendro Traveler's and Xiangling's talents.

Thirdly, I was not particularly happy with my Xiao's artifacts. I had in mind to re-farm for his artifacts since the damage could be better. For the record, I am not really a damage fanatic; my motto in game is as long as the enemy dies. But the fact that I need to re-farm Xiao's artifacts for better damage just shows how horrible Xiao's artifacts were.

Then, I noticed that the artifacts I had on Wanderer was the wrong one. Bonus for me since I could just plonk everything from Wanderer to Xiao. All I need to do is farm for Wanderer. I also noticed that I am still lacking one more artifact for Yoimiya. Thankfully, the strongbox for that artifact is available in the crafting bench.

If you guys are wondering what the heck I am trying to say, the TLDR version is: Farm Wanderer's artifacts --> Trash artifacts go to Strongbox for Yoimiya --> Remaining artifacts feed to Xiao's artifacts to level up.

Anyway, that's all of my gaming progress. It does sound like a lot is going, but that is not even half of it. Remember that I still have my videos to edit and upload and I need to do it soon because my laptop memory space is crying at me.
