At beginning of the pandemic, Bullyboy Lingerie offered an interesting deal, a 3-pack of bottoms for $55 with designs and colours completely up to the discretion of the designer. Sadly, I missed the first round of offerings so when Bullyboy offered this deal again at $65, I immediately bought it!

I placed my order June 1 and the 3-pack was ready to pick up in 4 weeks. While the variety I received was not as broad as the website, there were three different sizes in the pack. My favourite cut is the high-cut brief, which you can see is narrow the back yet manages not to ride up! Colour-wise, I like the middle brief best, which reminds me a little of Neapolitan icecream. I also just bought a racerback bra from Miel Sisters in Sky Blue which matches the Bully Boy brief perfectly!

As daily panties, these are great for the summer, especially with the multiple heat waves Toronto has been experiencing. The breathable nylon mesh is preferable to cotton, which tends to soak up and hold moisture.

With a closer look, I found the quality of the 3-pack panties lacked the neat and careful stitching of the Vonnie panties.

Up close, you can see the stitching almost veers off the elastic at times, which is making the elastic buckle at points on the Neapolitan panty. You can also see that the seams are not so secure at some points and is unraveling at the bottom of the photo of  the Neapolitan panty. You can also see that the blue mesh gusset is a little ragged, though it’s quite clean cut for the other two pairs.

Given the significantly reduced price (<$22 per piece versus $55-$58), this doesn’t really bother me and the unraveling seams are easy enough for me to mend. However, I personally would have preferred to wait longer for pieces that took more time to make.

Overall, I loved this idea. Anticipating future events and having small, fun things to look forward to are a healthy way of coping with the uncertainty of a pandemic and I think it’s great Bully Boy offered this. I hope they are able to open up this offer again, just be aware that the work may be a little rushed.

Stay tuned for another Bully Boy review to come ♡

"Shame" - Druig x siren!Reader

SUMMARY: Eros comes up with a brilliant plan to lure out Arishem but that requires a rekindling of old friendships that haven't ended exactly peacefully. A billion-dollar question: does a siren's song work on Eternals?

Eros' plan was, to be frank, quite ridiculous and no one had a reason to even remotely believe it would work. But they were pressed for time and out of options, so the Earth's mightiest heroes were dependant on sheer dumb luck and crossed fingers. Luckily for humanity, history has been changed with less.

"Are we sure she will help us?" Makkari signed with a worried expression on her face. It was a question everyone had been silently entertaining. Trust was something none of them was capable of affording at that point.

"Either that or she will bite our heads off," Eros stated with a grin. "I've always found that endearing."

"Sirens aren't known for helping. They're brutal and stop at nothing." Thena remained unconvinced. Her skepticism was not at all misplaced. Sprite has told many stories about those creatures and only some of them were slightly embellished, just enough to make sure humans won't go looking for them.

"They also pay off their debts. And she just happens to have one."

The dive bar was exactly how one would expect it to be: loud, smelly, dirty and filled with clientele whose cockney accent became gradually less comprehensible with each cocktail. Sometimes it was hard to believe that those very same humans once built the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

Eros marched through the swarm of people, clearly knowing where you resided. Maybe the credit's due or maybe he had enough common sense to follow the smell of gourmand perfume that vaguely carried in the stuffy air of the venue. Not to mention the line of moony-looking people all headed in one direction.

The lounge was filled with people and the gourmand fragrance that was strong enough to give vertigo even to chemical plant workers. They have barely stepped into the room when four men, roughly the size of Anna Wintour's closet, stopped them from going farther. Their expressions were weirdly dreamy and completely absent as if their minds were drowning in a blissful daydream while their bodies were but puppets for somebody else.

"Eros!" you exclaimed in an excited voice. The moony bullyboys stepped aside to let the Eternals pass through. Without the human barricade, they could see the exact reason Eros brought them to this place: you. "Hate to see you here, dove."

Laying on a velvet sofa, you were wearing a silky slip dress that could well be sold as lingerie. A white fur was thrown around your shoulders but you let it slip off in an inviting manner as you stood up and approached the newcomers. You were surrounded by the gourmand smell, noticeably stronger than anywhere else in the locale. It was a fragrance that made mouths water, bringing to mind memories of sweet treats and summer days - a smell one becomes addicted to as soon as they sense it.

"Long time no see, (Y/N). I have almost missed you."

"Then take a number and wait for your turn. Fancy a drink?" You vaguely pointed towards someone beside them.

They turned their heads towards a cheerleader-looking girl that had appeared out of the moony crowd inside the lounge. She was carrying a tray with red drinks inside martini glasses. The gourmand smell coming from the bevearges was intense enough to be considered pungent.

"Your powers don't work on us," Druig stated.

Yes, Eros would make sure of that. He's always been a killjoy.

A smirk crept unto Druig's face. He seemed amused by that fact as if he had already won some kind of rivalry. His expression, however, quickly changed when your shameless, intense gaze crawled up and down his body, taking in each curve and detail. Whether it was intentional or not, the inside of your lower lip was caught between your lips as if when choosing between lewd words and actions you have chosen to remain silent, for now. A cold shiver run down his spine as Druig unconsciously swallowed. The moment was brief, although he will remember it as if hours went by, and although he was wearing layers of clothing, your gaze made him not only feel completely naked but cut open.

"Shame," you said carelessly before turning back to Eros. "So, to what calamity do I owe this displeasure and why should I care?"

But your words were of little interest to Druig now. His previously flourishing pride and confidence were subdued by some newly-found sensation, a curiosity of sorts; curiosity about the could-have-beens. And this curiosity made him doubt his own self-assurance, his own words: could he be sure that he was immune to your siren song? That Eros' power withstood your ancient, cunning magic? Or did he, in his own desire, no matter how hidden and subconscious, subjected himself to your power?

Maybe, in some secret way he refused to acknowledge, he wanted to be like the crewmates you lured to shoals and sharp rocks? And what a shame that would be, for Druig to fall victim to his very own game.
