You knew exactly what you were doing when you typed her name into Facebook's search bar. Your fingers moved with purpose, guided by an obsession you couldn't shake.
There it was - Rafe's wife's profile, and right at the top, exactly what you'd been hunting for: a fresh post celebrating their decade of marriage, complete with a photo from their younger days when their love still seemed pure and untainted. You stared at their beaming faces, letting the bitterness wash over you.
Each scroll feels like turning a knife in your own heart, but you can't stop.
Their life unfolds before you like some twisted fairy tale: Rafe teaching their daughter to ride a bike, their annual trips to the Maldives, their matching Christmas sweaters with those damn Dobermans.
And herâalways herâwearing that diamond tennis bracelet you once saw in his browser history, claiming the life that should have been yours.
This should be me, the thought burns like acid.
Your fingers hover over a photo of their Mediterranean cruise, her perfectly manicured hand resting on his chest, that massive engagement ring catching the sunset.
She has everything: the weekend brunches at that fancy place downtown, the Range Rover you've seen in their driveway, the three beautiful children with his eyes, the garden parties you watch from afar, and himâGod, especially him.
The life that slipped through your fingers because of timing and trust funds. She had everything you didn't: old money, country club connections, and most cruciallyâage.
While you were still learning to drive, she was already the perfect socialite, the appropriate choice for a man of Rafe's standing. The Seventeen-year age gap between you and Rafe might as well have been an oceanâone that she had already crossed long before you even learned to swim.
Sometimes you wonder if that's what drew him to you in the first place: your youth, your naivety, everything that made you so different from her. Everything that ultimately made you impossible.
Your wine glass is empty again. When did that happen?
A tear escaped your eye as jealousy carved deeper into your chest, the pain spreading until you could barely breathe. Your trembling fingers found your phone, muscle memory still remembering his number after all these years. You knew it was wrongâGod, you knewâbut you pressed call anyway.
One ring. Two rings. Your heart threatened to burst.
"Hello?" His voice, still so familiar, sent electricity through your body.
"Iâ" your voice cracked, "I need to see you, Rafe. Please. I can't⊠I can't stop thinking about you, and I'm so alone tonight. Please come over, I need you."
The silence that followed felt eternalâlike light years away, stretching between your world and his, filled with everything unsaid.
You could picture him there, standing in his perfect house with his perfect family just rooms away, probably running his fingers through his hair the way he always did when he was conflicted.
Your heart hammered against your ribs as you heard him move, presumably stepping outside or into his study. Then came that familiar soundâthe slow exhale through his nose that you remembered from countless late nights together, when difficult decisions hung in the air between you.
When he finally spoke, his voice was low, rough with something that might have been regret or desire or both: "I'm on my way."
Three simple words that shattered whatever remained of your resolve. You ended the call before he could change his mind, before reality could catch up to either of you, before guilt could claw its way back in.
Your hands shook as you set the phone down, knowing that in fifteen minutesâtwenty at mostâyou'd hear his car in your driveway, and everything would change again.
When he steps through your door, the world narrows to just this: his loosened tie, your trembling hands, the soft thud as his back hits the wall. "We shouldn't," he whispers, even as his fingers dig into your hips, even as he pulls you closer.
You silence his protest with a kiss that tastes like regret and wanting, knowing tomorrow will bring guilt but tonightâtonight belongs to muscle memory and bad decisions.
Your hands roam greedily over each other, ripping clothes away with primal urgency. Your mouths hungrily devour one another, teeth nipping at lips as you guide him to the bedroom. Your heart races with desire and anticipation, knowing what awaits in the heat of passion.
The phone you carefully propped against the lamp earlier blinks silently in the darkness, its camera catching everything. You position him perfectly in its view, letting him think it's just desire guiding your movements.
"God, I've missed you," he breathes against your collar bone, completely unaware that every word, every moan, every mistake is being captured. You almost feel guiltyâalmost.
Then you think of her Facebook shrine to their perfect marriage, and something shifts inside youâguilt crystallizing into purpose.
Your phone keeps recording in the darkness, anticipating to capture every betrayal, every whispered confession.
Soon, her perfectly filtered life won't matter anymore. Soon, you'll have something far more precious than any photograph: Rafeâcornered, desperate, and finally yours.
Without hesitation, you shoved Rafe onto your queen size bed. Straddling his naked body, you disregarded any notion of foreplay.
As much as you craved the feeling of his tongue on your clit or his thick fingers probing you, all that mattered was having Rafe's cock buried in your cunt.
"Damn, you weren't kidding. You really do need me," Rafe smirked as his palm immediately found its way to your dripping core, but to your dismay was swatted away.
With a seductive grin, cooed in your sweet, high-pitched voice that made Rafe's brain mush. "Un huh, now be a good boy and let me take care of myself," you purred, guiding his rock-hard cock to the entrance of your wetness.
"Are you going to let me do that?" Your tone was condescending, but it only fueled the intense desire between you both, and because Rafe's mind turned to mush the moment you said you needed him, he nodded, totally pussy whipped and enamored by you.
The sharp gasp that escaped both of your lips was matched only by the intensity of your desire.
Slowly, you sank down onto Rafe's throbbing cock, savoring the feeling of him stretching you just as he always did.
"You're so tight, baby," he groaned out, his voice dripping with lust.
As you remembered the phone set up hidden by your side table lamp, a mischievous thought crossed your mind:
"Am I tighter than your wife?" you asked, already beginning to rock your hips on his length. Naturally, Rafe's hands found their way to your waist, not to guide you but to bring you closer to his lips.
"So much tighter, shit," he breathed out between hot kisses, with each agonizing slow rock.
"You're gonna leave her for me, huh?" you asked, face to face with Rafe, cradling his jaw to peck his lips. Slowly, you began to pick up the pace.Â
Your rhythmic movements escalate into frenzied bouncing, his hard length molding perfectly to your slick walls, stretching you to the limit. You lift yourself up and press down on Rafe's chest for leverage, driving him deeper and harder into you
Rafe's eyes rolled back as you bounced harder, your pussy gripping him like a vice. "Fuck, I⊠I don't know," he groaned, his hips bucking up to meet your thrusts.
You leaned down, your breasts brushing against his chest as you whispered in his ear, "Come on, baby. Tell me you'll leave her. Tell me I'm the only one you want." Your walls clenched around him for emphasis, drawing a strangled moan from his lips.
"God, yes," Rafe panted, completely lost in the sensation of your tight heat enveloping him. "I'll leave her. You're all I want, fuck!"
Hearing those words sent a thrill through you. You began to bounce faster, slamming yourself down onto his thick cock with abandon. Your breasts bounced enticingly and Rafe reached up to cup them, pinching your nipples between his fingers.
"Say it again," you demanded breathlessly, grinding your hips in circles. "Tell me you're mine."
"I'm yours, baby," Rafe panted, thrusting up to meet your movements. "All fucking yours."
You leaned down to capture his lips in a searing kiss, your tongue tangling with his as you continued to ride him relentlessly. The sound of skin slapping against skin filled the room, along with your shared moans of pleasure.
"Gonna cum for me?" you asked, clenching your walls around him. "Gonna fill me up? Gonna give me one of your babies?"
"Yeah, gonna stuff your sweet pussy with my hot load, fuck, I'm about to explode," Rafe moaned, his nails digging into your flesh, leaving red marks on your hips.
You reached down to rub tight circles on your clit, chasing your own release. "Me too, don't stop," you gasped.
With a few more forceful thrusts, you both toppled over the brink together, moaning in bliss as powerful waves of pleasure engulfed you. Rafe followed suit, releasing his hot and sticky load inside you, filling you up completely.
The afterglow lasts exactly thirty seconds before Rafe is already reaching for his clothes, his movements quick and efficient like this is just another business meeting wrapping up, breathing hasn't even steadied.
"I need to get back," he says, checking his watch. "We have dinner reservations at La Maison."
"Of course. The anniversary dinner." Your voice sounds hollow even to your own ears. "Rafe?" He pauses, shirt half-buttoned. "Did you mean any of it? What you said while we were�"
He crosses the room, cups your face, and plants a soft kiss on your lipsâthe kind that feels like goodbye. Then he's gone, the front door clicking shut behind him.
You sit in the twisted sheets, his warmth already fading, listening to his car fade into the distance. Your hands shake as you reach for your phone and stop the recording. The email address you've had memorized for months appears in the recipient field without hesitation. You attach the videoâforty-three minutes of undeniable truthâand watch the upload bar creep forward. In the subject line, you type five words that will demolish their perfect life: "Happy Anniversary, From Us Both."
Your finger hovers over 'send' for just a heartbeat before pressing down. Let her enjoy those reservation plans now.
Now he'll have to choose, you think, watching the loading bar reach 100%. And this time, he'll choose me.

can I make a formal request that people stop trying to add accents into their dialogue? I have no idea what accent you're even trying to accomplish most of the time AND it (at least as I've seen it lately on here) is like a shorthand for "not white" (with the only exception being some fucking white southern gone with the wind bs...). If you want to get another culture to come across in your writing, try slang or common sayings. Nothing makes me think southern like "y'all" or "bless your heart" (good and fine). And nothing makes me think that the writer is lazy like adding an accent when what you actually mean is "person of color" (bad and racist) because--even though you're writing fanfic, the reader apparently can't figure out who's talking unless you add that shit in
#i have it so that some things get recommended from tags i like and this mostly works#but sometimes its this. and it drives me. bonkers#this is unfortunately about spiderverse (but also the last of us you guys have GOT to lay off the thick accent jesus christ)#but at least the last of us one is just an annoyance#the spiderverse one--did you guys actually listen to Miguel's dialogue? have you heard oscar isaac speak?#its like you went 'hispanic!' and decided not only to insert random spanish (poorly) but also to stereotype his accent#strangely enough even though peter b is also from new york he doesn't seem to have accented dialogue. strange that. wonder why#i dont even want to know what's happening with hobie fics. i cant imagine anyone is adapting cockney accents well...#just. give them dialogue the way they would say it. you dont need the accent if we know who they are#this was a rant im sorry. accents in written language have always been a pet peeve.#jk rowling did it SO fucking often with SO many non white or poor/uneducated characters and it is VERY transparent#i say so many obviously relative to how many she actually had which. well#jkr fucking sucks anyway dont be like her

CR1TIKAL FNAF STARTERS || ALWAYS ACCEPTING! || @blorbodepot
blorbodepot asked: â Celebrate the joy of long-lasting power! â - Martha for Phone Guy.
â H-Haha...you've got the right attitude, at least. â
[In reality, balancing the building's power alongside the cameras, lights, and doors was unbelievably difficult. On a handful of occasions now, P.G. had found himself surviving by the skin of his teeth thanks to those 5 AM blackouts.]
[It was rough finding a replacement for his position -- a tremendous guilt weighed on his conscience every time he did one of these interviews, now that he KNEW the horrors the next contender would have to endure. He wanted out, but if that meant putting somebody else's life in jeopardy, he wasn't sure he could live with that. That was part of the reason he'd started leaving instructional messages over the phone for future night guards...he could only hope that they'd actually help.]
â I-It's important for you to be able to, y'know, manage the building's power supply. You don't want the place going dark -- uh, t-trust me on that. â [P.G. cleared his throat, hoping it wasn't painfully obvious how uncomfortable he was.] â We don't require any, uh, p-prior experience, but why don't you tell me about some of your skill sets? Something that you think would make you a p-perfect fit for Freddy's. â

hii! could i request something w spence where he asks uni reader to move in with him and r is kinda nervous about it pleaseđđ love all of ur fics, and thanksss đ«¶đ«¶đ«¶
yass this is super cute!!!! thank you for the request, hope i did it justice
warnings/tags: fluff!! a teensy bit suggestive at the end if u squint... i cant help myself. i'm an animal
requests are open! sfw and nsfw welcome
(a/n: this is probably an awkward spot to put this but I didn't wanna make a whole other post: THANK YOU GUYS FOR ALL THE LOVE AND SUPPORT!!! i have gained over 100 followers since i last posted and have over 1k notes on both of my recent works thats literally bonkers insane crazy town ACTUALLY. i love hearing your thoughts and reactions to my work even if its just a silly little comment. so yeah. thanks and so much love to u ALL)
âSo basically, Iâm not allowed in the dorm except to sleep because she always has her boyfriend over, and I told her thatâs literally insaneâIâm paying thousands of dollars to be there just like her. If she wanted privacy she should have gotten a single. She canât just lock me out of our shared bedroom all the time! I live there!âÂ
Youâre stabbing violently at your food by the time you finish your verbal tirade.Â
âOkay, maybe put the knife down before you hurt yourself,â Spencer suggests, readying a hand to take the implement away from you if necessary. The knife clatters against your plate as you drop it.Â
âSheâs driving me fucking crazy,â you mumble, rubbing your eyes until you see fireworks. âAnd the housing department said I donât have grounds to transfer rooms, so Iâm stuck with her for the rest of the year.âÂ
Thereâs no reply from your boyfriend, and a pang of guilt in your chest makes you look up at him again. His expression, as so often is the case, is inscrutable.Â
âIâm sorry for ranting. Iâm really happy to see you and I donât mean to ruin dinner, I justââÂ
âYou could stay with me,â he interrupts.Â
You blink.Â
âLike... when she locks me out?âÂ
Spencer laughs self-consciously.Â
âNo, like... permanently.âÂ
For a moment you just gape at him like an idiot, trying to comprehend his offer.Â
He wants you to move in... with him. Permanently. He wants to live with you.Â
You realize youâve been staring at him for far too long, and you lean back, inhaling deeply as the world launches into motion again.Â
âThatâs... a big step, Spence,â you breathe. His eyes scan you head to toe, and you realize heâs most definitely analyzing your body language.Â
âYou donât have to say yes. It was just an offer,â he shrugs, standing up and clearing the plates from the table. Â
âWait,â you call, following him to the kitchen. âAre you upset now because I leaned away from you when you asked?âÂ
He turns from the counter, looking at you blankly.Â
âOf course not. That would be ridiculous.âÂ
Oh, he totally is.Â
You tentatively step forward, gently lacing your fingers through hisâbut unable to meet his eyes. Â
âItâs not that I donât want to,â you begin gingerly, âbut Iâm... Iâm not done with school. We always said I would move in once I graduated.âÂ
âThatâs an arbitrary limitation we set for ourselves. There are plenty of ways to get you from here to campus every day.âÂ
âBut youâre not even here sometimes. I would just be alone.âÂ
âYou would have the whole apartment to yourself. You would have my bed. You wouldnât have to share a shower with an entire floor of college students anymore. And ultimately, we would get to spend a lot more time together.âÂ
You try to speak but find your throat is tight. Spending more time together is exactly what youâre afraid of.Â
âWhatâs your real objection here?â he asks quietly, running his thumb back and forth over the underside of your wrist. You swallow, watching the motion of his hand. Â
âIâm afraid, that if we move in together... youâll stop liking me.â The words come out paper thin, barely audible.Â
And he laughs. Your teary eyes dart up, surprised by the reactionâslightly hurt, even.Â
âIâm sorry, sweetheart, Iâm not laughing at you,â Spencer says, sobering up when he sees your baleful expression. âI just canât believe you think Iâd stop liking you.â He wipes away the tears beading on your eyelashes delicately. âIâm in love with you. Neurologically that is pretty hard to undo.âÂ
You study his face, looking for any sign of hesitation or dishonesty. All you find is pure fondness in the curve of his lips; utter devotion in the soft set of his eyes.Â
âYou promise you wonât start hating me as soon as I move in?âÂ
âI promise.âÂ
You lean against his chest, craning your neck to look up at him.Â
âI can be pretty annoying.âÂ
âI think I can handle it.âÂ
âI take really long showers.â Â
He kisses you softly. âMe too. Iâm sure we can figure out a way to conserve water.âÂ
Despite your reservations you smile against his lips.Â
âOkay?â he asks.Â
âOkay.âÂ

was at my sisters house to watch the cats a bit and played some botw again after a long time, spent an hour running around phirone (faron) and checking out all the cool sonau (zonai) stuff and i felt a wave of sadness wash over me, those ruins there feel so ... heavy with story, with sadness of tragedy, with the thrill of the unkown, yet its revealed to be nothing in totk, i honestly dont feel like the sonau of botw and of totk are at all releated tbh, theres like, NO design overlap besides sometimes some dragon-like figures that feel more like they put them into totk just to have some connection at all-
the botw sonau ruins are all full of curves hewn into dark stone with red accents, theres swirls and snakes everywhere, appropriately withered by time and weather- it was already a stupid idea to replace the shiekah tech with literally another ancient highly advanced civilaztion, but then to not even make them look or feel at all connected to the little things that were there?? totk sonau is white stone and gold and green, its all extremely angular and clean cut, together with weird hologram shit that reads, somehow, as both unfittingly techy to everything else while also neither mechnical nor magical
its fucking bonkers, i know they put some totk sonau bullshit into some of the ruins in totk, like the main ones in phirone but like, especially in that case with the direct comparison its so jarring and artificial, and i hate the excuse of "hylians built those different looking buildings as a monument to the sonau", like we needed more shitty excuses for bad writing decisions- the ancient AND current hylian stuff aligns more with totk sonau stuff, why would they adopt a completely different style to built shit around actual sonau stuff that somehow also looks like it was abandoned like, 50 years, 100 years ago, not over TEN THOUSAND years ago, both the botw sonau ruins and the shiekah tech look more ancient than anything totk sonau
and what for??? i imagine more botw sonau style ruins and like, thats entirely possible, why make it sth utterly different and give it a shitty excuse?? its so unnecessary?? like okay make the wheels out of withered stone hanging together like clumps by invisible magic like how the iwaroks (the .. stone enemy) works- i still would like it sicne i dont like the whole building thing in botws world, but at least it would feel like truly magic bs and fit into the design of botw sonau (even though im still not over NOTHING ever hinting that they were one step away from spaceships hologram aliens, the refusal to work with the stuff they themselves have put into their games drives me up a wall, YOU PUT IT THERE! DO SOMETHIGN WITH IT!)
just to put some modern tech into it? was it worth it?? (no)- and there i could even go on about how much i hate the 'tech' design too, its too little mechanical to be called 'tech' but too modern tech like to call it 'magic', (a balance which the shiekah tech did tremendously well imo) i keep being impressed with how conflicting and incoherent design and story can be in this one single overpriced game
(the reason them making it so modern techy looking was so players would immediately know what it was apparently and i just ... doesnt that make it more boring? like instead of the shiekah stone(slate) they just put a flip phone with numbered buttons and all and give it a vaguely stone texture? instead of like, a guardian with its spider legs and strange creepy design, just put a fucking tank there??? (and like, in a way i feel like the fact that they still tried to not make it look too modern by putting that green texture on it and like, a face here and there, makes it WORSE, a bad cover up is worse to me than none at all, like a shitty explanation can make sth worse than no explanation at all *ahem* literally every interview they did >:C )
also i dont know how you could even design a fan so it doesnt look like a fan? you dont need to put in literal car wheels with suspension and all in there to make it clear its a wheel bc how would you even design a wheel so it doesnt read like a wheel???
since when did they get so anxious about players not understanding something?? the whole series was built on puzzles of varying difficulty, whats with the sudden loss in trust in the player?? botw was already pretty easy but in totk the whole game treats you like you cant think or remember sth for more than 30 seconds to the point it gets actively agonizing to play through- the same two sentences of unimportant info repeated and shown to your face over and over, both in story and gameplay- and even with their immediately readable design choices for the sonau 'tech' they made half teh shrines either sloggingly slow tutorials or one puzzle shrines that are dedicated to teach you how the obvious thing works when you really learn it all on the literal tutorial island AND its obvious from the start BECAUSE THEY WANTED IT TO BE OBVIOUS!! its fun to figure things out and try stuff, its no fun to have a step by step guide glued to your forehead at all times especially when its so obvious, yes thanks for teaching me that a literal fire hydrant spits out water!! wow! never thought about that! thanks for telling me it 5 times too!! (even if it annoys me that they can just do that when not connected to the ground .. would have been more fun to make puzzle with if they were,,), its part of why i felt like the game was so condescending or outright laughing at me-
why even try to teach me how a fan works over and over when like, there arent even any creative things you can do with it in a reasonable amount of time and its never needed or incentivised either bc the game just hands you the literal solution or at the very least give you the four parts or what that you need to make what you need, like pulling apart two bricks of baby lego in fornt of a toddler to see if they can put them back together once you hand it to them
and dont come at me with the "its for kids" argument, the old games were too and theres alot of stages of 'kid', they arent stupid either and nintendo should know that they have alot of adult fans too, it doesnt need to be dark souls and its allowed to have easy stuff in there but the fact that it never gets any more challenging is the problem, yes part of the fun in games can be making your own rules and messing around but it really shouldnt be controversial to want a 70 bucks game to offer a fun experience without you having to make it fun all on your own (i for one dont enjoy spending 30 minutes glueing togehter a tank with ear shattering lasers just to inefficiently beat up 3 bokblins i could just swing my sword at for a few seconds instead and are not worth the materials spend anyway)
in the end it would have been less immersion breaking and more fun if they straight up put a honda civic into the game you can summon anywhere at no cost (hmmmm where did they just do it before hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm) and transforms like a batmobile to fly around in rather than the weird sonau nuts and bolts hassle you have to put up with, costs stuff, can waste hours of your time and despawn as soon as you look away from it unless you want to make le funny tiktok videos i guess
its such a waste too bc the mechanic itself IS impressive, but its utterly missplaced in this game, it would have needed its own, truly own, game built around it, placing it in botws world is like dumping a bunch of knock off brand toys into a world that felt believable and meaningful turning it to feel like its really just a game for you to mess around in, never has a game felt more gamey to me and it SUCKS to have that magic pulled away like that, silly me for letting them make me care about it i guess
maybe its petty but as someone how really cares alot about design stuff, both visually and gameplay wise, it makes me furious to think about (as you can tell) .. also hyperfixation go brrrrrrr
(this is obviously my view on it, writing this to get it out, not to argue, i believe i have heard all the arguments already anyway and by this point all that is left is just insulting me directly lol)
#ganondoodles talks#zelda#ganondoodles rants#totk critical#look at me just wanting to quickly mention sth#and it devolving into a rant again fjdkbdhgvdjk#also does the english description for the barbaric armor say they lived in phirone?#in german it just says it belonged to a warrior tribe and the symbols on the head piece are supposed to strengthen your fighting spirit#when i look at the botw sonau ruins i dont think of the totk sonau at all#its completely different to me#and maybe its a good sign at least that i can play botw and still feel something

bringing my insane late night instagram ramblings to here bc of course i was thinking about this scene from the trailer again:
this is after aziraphale realized heâs absolutely head over heels for this demon and he canât help but invite him in after crowley drives him to the bookshop.. he takes crowley to the back room, lights some candles, and pulls out the fancy wine. THIS IS LITERALLY A DATE. IT LOOKS SO TENDER.
But. I canât help but wonder what happened in between 1941 and 1967.
Ok obviously they couldâve met up sometime between those dates, but MY POINT IS. The church scene and this âdateâ were just so sweet and full of romance, but then 1967 feels so incredibly different. It feels a lot more distant and sad, and of course Aziraphale drops the âyou go to fast for meâ line that breaks Crowleyâs heart.
Honestly Iâm kind of thinking something happened at the end of this little âdateâ they had. Maybe thinking the two of them got super close to romance territory, maybe even close to a kiss or confession of some kind, because that scene certainly looks like it has the perfect mood for that. Then of course Aziraphale panics and pushes Crowley away and acts like nothing happened. Im sure this hurt Crowley, but I think he expects it at that point, and then âyou go too fast for meâ happens and Crowley has no other choice but to wait for his angel because heâd rather have his only best friend than no one at all.
This season though, with its supposed romantic undertones, Iâm hoping Aziraphale snaps out of it. Iâm hoping after 6000+ years, Aziraphale will finally catch up to speed and theyâll be able to do whatever they want, that is of course with some obstacles..
Aziraphale may still be unsure about it all, of course we have to deal with Gabriel, and the forces of Heaven and Hell are on their doorstep (literally). From what we got in the trailer and because of.. other.. things, I think their relationship will progress in some way or another! And clearly Iâm going absolutely bonkers thinking about the possibilities..
#good omens#crowley#aziraphale#ineffable husbands#insane ramblings#good omens season 2#how many times have i watched the trailer to analyze it..?#wellâŠ.

Chapter 2 - Lost Girl
Warnings: will contain smut in future chapters, MFM, FM, sometimes more than 3 people lol. Violence (hello theyâre vampires), mentions of drugs. (Paul smoking weed)
This story is going to be at least 30+ chapters. Itâs still in its planning stages for the future but I love Lost boys (have since I was little) i need to let you all know that Iâm a mother to 2 autistic children and a lot of my time is spent looking after them, but I will try and post at least weekly. Hope thatâs ok with you all â€ïžâ€ïž please feel free to post comments Iâll reply to every single one đ€đ€
As we make our way through the crowds lingering across the boardwalk i can't help but to follow like a lost sheep. I have no clue where we're going but, but surely my soulmate can't be leading me to danger? That's why my legs willingly follow him as he makes his way towards a motorbike.
He gets on, and holds his hand out to me to take hold of, "come on, jump on." He says his eyes baring into my own.
I take a deep breath and pulling my pencil skirt upwards feeling rather self conscious, I get my leg over and secure my arms around his waist. This is my first time on a motorbike and my heart is in my throat. We begin to take off, he goes at a careful speed, we'd been driving for around 15 minutes before we came to a wooden looking house. We pull up the dirt path leading to the front of the home.
He kicks out the stand and slides off, his arms help me get off the bike, a smile now taking over his beautiful features. "This is my home, come on," he says as he leads me through the front door. "My mum should be home soon."
We make our way into what looks like a living room, there's a teenage boy sat on the sofa reading a Batman comic. I can't help but smile seeing a youngster reading.
He looks up from his comic, a frown marring his features, "why have you bought a girl home Mikey, moms not going to be happy." He practically finishes in sing song with a grin on his face.
He pushes his little brother by the shoulder, "Mom will be happy for me. Sammy; meet my soulmate - y/n."
Who i now know as Sam, his mouth opens wide like a gawping fish. He stutters, "Oh my god! Mikeys found his soulmate!?" He says practically vibrating on the spot with excitement. I can't help but to grin and smile at the kid. He seems so happy bless him.
I lean forward extending my hand, "it's nice to meet you Sammy,". We shake hands both of us grinning.
Michael wraps an arm around my shoulders, "well, I'm going to go get to know y/n some more, shout us when mums home." He says as we make our way up the stairs to what I can only assume is his bedroom.
We step into his bedroom and I take in the posters around jotted around on the walls. A single bed is the only thing to sit on in there. He sits himself down making himself comfy, I make my way over slipping my shoes off before climbing onto the bed.
We look at each other taking one another in, âSo, what were you doing at the Board walk, you looked a bit lost. And I know Iâve never seen you there.â He says to me as I press my fingers to my lips, I canât get over how good looking my soulmate is, heâs so handsome.
I look down at my hands, trying to think of what to say, whether to risk telling the truth and scaring my soulmate away or risking him getting me sent to a nut house. Oh sod it, whatâs the worst that can happen.
âYouâre going to think Iâm crazy,â i say as i look up to him, âThis morning I was in the year 2024, and I was on my way home from work, and I got hit by lightning and woke up on the sand in 1987.â
I peer up at, him waiting to see his reaction, peering up at him he seems shocked, obviously what else would you expect. âI promise Iâm telling the truth, I know it sounds absolutely bonkers but itâs true.â I say as I look into his eyes, they seem to be taking in what I just said.
He leans forward, his fingers pressing to my cheek, he leans in and kisses my forehead, pulling me towards him. "I believe you, why would you lie about something like that." his chin is resting on the top of my head.
I lean in taking in his scent, I can't help but to feel safe in his embrace, snuggling against his chest. He smells me, I can hear his intake of breath breathing me in.
"You'll be ok love, I promise I'll take care of you forever." he says to me, nuzzling his face against me.
"Forever is a long time Michael, are you sure you can promise forever." i say to him grinning against his chest. I feel his chest vibrate with laughter.
"You'll find, we'll all be able to promise you forever, sweetheart." his fingers caress my hair, his fingers running through it.
I pull away from him, confused. "What do you mean we?," i say to him, does he know my other soulmates?
Michael is just about to speak when theres a knock against his bedroom door, "Come in," he says to the person at the door.
A beautiful blonde lady walks in, you hazard a guess that this woman is his mother. "Hi sweetie, it's lovely to finally meet my Michaels soulmate." she says as she rushes over and pulls me into a loving embrace. her warmness and nurturing nature reminds you of your own mother, a mother who would be in her 20s like yourself in 1987, the thought makes your head spin.
I lean into her hug, "Its lovely to meet you too," i say as she pulls back a huge loving smile on her face.

every once in a while i think about that one interview where the creators of dhmis said that yellow guy was the only character capable of actually exploring the world. it makes me think a lot. especially about the big boys.
sometimes i think that maybe red guy and duck got stuck in the big boys rooms because of how bitter they are. in the creators own words, yellow guy is the only one in the group that is willing to actually look into things without being overly cynical about everything. red guy and duck slowly give in to the world, they slowly lose faith in being good people and see no reason to be good at all. they lose their hope for anything better. they eventually end up with a âthis is as good as it getsâ attitude. this is why i think there isnt a big version of yellow guy. because yellow guy NEVER thinks like that. with or without his batteries yellow guy doesnt think like the other two. they think too negatively to even consider a positive outcome, while yellow guy, as bonkers as he usually is, has a more reasonable look at things because he isnt miserably bitter
i know that the big boys recognize yellow guy when he walks in, i think the bigger boys even asked him where he had been or something like that. âweâve been waiting for youâ or something. i dont think this implies that yellow guy has a big counterpart, i think this is a callback to what yellow guy said earlier in the episode. he had a whole conversation about how the other two âarent in charge of himâ despite what they may think. red guy and duck think that yellow guy will go along with anything they do. if they get bigger they expect yellow guy to as well. it might be because they view him as stupid, or it could be because theyâre always stuck together so they assume heâll be apart of everything they do, but either way they expect him to give up on the world like they do. but he doesnt. no matter what happens, yellow guy has the childhood wonder and curiosity that red guy and duck are too grouchy and old to have. thats why he finds the book, thats why he knows what he does and asks what he asks, not because of the batteries, but because hes kind. red guy and duck destroy themselves and each other. they think theyre sooo fucking smart but theyre literally doing nothing. just sitting around in rooms. but yellow guy has hope despite everything. i dont have faith that theres anything better in the dhmis world. honestly, im pretty sure in the same article i was mentioning earlier (although it could be a different one) its mentioned that the audience want yellow guy to be happy but he âNEVER will beâ. and the transport episode really drives home (haha get it) the idea that theres really nothing better outside of the house. so even me as an audience member has lost faith, just like red guy and duck, but yellow guy hasnt and thats so sad to me. theres a part of me that wishes so bad that heâs right, that there really is something better, but as the creators said, there never will be
unless theyre fucking with us of course, which wouldnt be surprising
idk this shits confusing its all metaphorical and sad and all that gay shit

omg im absolutely obsessed with the way river is so unsure if lamb is serious or not in the last drive the wedge ask. would you be willing to share another snippet with lamb or maybe frank?
THANK YOU it's one of the things that makes me the most bonkers about this lmao is the like. the association that happens in river's mind post-rescue with frank and lamb and how it casts so much... doubt on lamb sometimes, even beyond lamb already being a cantankerous asshole. it's like he thinks in that clip - lamb has never been violent to him before but things just feel so much less certain now. how can be trust that he won't be? it's so fun to me.
as thanks for asking and also an apology for taking a couple days to answer, have TWO clips, one with lamb and one with frank :)
this is um. well. snippet. clip. this is a.......... rather long piece from river's time in captivity sldfjs and then down under that ive got a clip from after his return, from the same conversation the last clip with lamb is from. this is. well it's frank, so content warning for. frank. and generally just. violence/trauma.
drive the wedge, frank:
Frank is looking at him. His eyes are hard and cold and they donât waver for a moment. They bore into Riverâs with enough intensity that it nearly makes River flinch backwards just to see them. He just barely manages to stifle the instinct â itâs a close enough call that his hand, the one gripping the arm of the chair, flexes and the chain of the cuff around his wrist rattles.
âI asked if you were allergic to anything,â Frank says, slow and clipped. âIf Iâm going to be feeding you for the foreseeable future, then I need to know if Iâm going to kill you with what Iâm putting in front of you, River. Are you. Allergic. To anything?â
Thereâs a dangerous tone to the question and River knows that he isnât going to be allowed to get away with not answering it. Still, the words stick in his constricted throat and his mind practically makes an audible sound as it whirs, trying to figure out how to parse what Frank said. I need to know if Iâm going to kill you with what Iâm putting in front of you. That wasnât I need to make sure I wonât kill you. Everything about Riverâs life, including its very continued existence, has grown very precarious these days, and it makes the need to consider whether that was meant as a threat a very pressing one.
Maybe it was a threat, maybe it wasnât. Does he tell the truth? The debate wars on in his head, seconds ticking away at a glacial pace, all the while River is acutely aware of the strict, violent man staring at him and waiting for an answer. His body aches in steady pulses, injuries layered over one another reminding him of the consequences if he crosses wherever Frank has drawn the arbitrary line of disobedience and disrespect today.
Instinct tells him that Frank is about to speak again before the words actually leave his mouth â maybe itâs something about the pattern of his breathing or how his face shifts, but River knows that itâs coming just in time to force out an answer before heâs asked a third time and made to pay for it.
âYes,â he says, too loud. A wince makes the bruises creeping up his jaw and splashed across his cheekbone, blacking one of his eyes, throb. It was a mistake, the way he said it. River knows that it sounded afraid, and it is always a mistake to let these fucking people see his fear.
âYes what?â
The second question is even worse than the first had been. River hadnât wanted to tell them whether or not he was allergic to anything, and he wants even less to give the answer that he knows is expected to this one. Itâs not even so much a question as it is a demand, a reminder that he knows what he is expected to do and that it is in his best interests to comply.
River doesnât want to fucking comply. He stares down at the surface of the table, at the partially-cleared plate he doesnât think he can bring himself to touch again, and remains silent. His teeth grind together and his bruised jaw aches.
Out of the corner of his eye, River catches the movement a second before fingers seize hold of his hair. Pain lights up in his scalp, sharp and loud, and he barely bites back a yelp as Frank wrenches his head over, forcing eye contact. Riverâs eyes water and his face hurts and he justâ He canât do this. He just canât. More than anything, more than keeping his dignity intact, more than preserving his pride, more than standing up to this monster, River just does not want to be fucking hit again. Itâs happened so many times and his entire body is begging for relief, crying out for just a little bit more time without another bruise beat into his skin.
âFather,â River yelps, quick and obedient, when the grip on his hair flexes and Frank's other hand begins to lift. Heâs exhausted and he hates himself more than he could possibly describe but he does what he is expected to do, repeats, âYes, father.â
Calmly, almost casually, Frankâs fingers release their iron grip on his hair. His hand doesnât retreat right away, though. Instead it lingers, coming down to settle lightly, gently on Riverâs bruised cheek and then give it a tiny pat. It doesnât hurt at all and River flinches.
âThatâs my boy,â Frank says, satisfaction so thick in his voice that River wishes he would choke on it. His hand leaves then, finally pulling away and returning to pick up a fork as if nothing has changed. As if heâs still just discussing errands at a Wednesday night dinner with his sons.
---
and now lamb:
âI said sit,â Lamb repeats, once heâs settled. His voice is firm and commanding but not angry, and Riverâ River almost flinches.
The factors ping around the inside of Riverâs head, the hamster running frantically on some shitty squeaky wheel in there trying to do the desperate math and figure out whatâs going to happen. He feels like he knows, but he canât⊠Thereâs something keeping that hamster on that fucking wheel, counting things up and trying to piece them together.
Voice not angry. Expression not glaring, still just that terrible oh, I see look. Lamb is sitting down and River is still standing and thereâs a desk between them and thereâs no extension cord or belt in sight. And still â What do you suggest? All morning, all day, River has been a fucking terror. Something else, too, something that superimposes Frank over Lamb sometimes when River canât quite pry them apart.
Thereâs an audible sigh and River just barely manages for a second time to suppress a flinch. âLook, alright, what youâre feeling right now? It is not about whatâs happening here,â Lamb says, and his voice keeps that steady tone that brooks no argument but also seems to levy no threat. âSome part of you has gone back there. I need you to hear and understand that I am not Frank Harkness, and so you and me are going to sit down and youâre going to come back to here before we talk any more about your assignment today.â

god why are people so uncaring about outdoor cats..... new cat in my neighborhood is like driving my cat insane whenever she looks out the window making it hard for me to take her outside cuz theres always a risk of conflict if they interact but like im the person with the leashed cat whatever whatever but ive seen this cat outside at fucking 1:30 in the morning ive seen him get carried away by someone so clearly hes not a stray but like who the hell cares so little about their cat they dont care that theyre free roaming around a very busy street and dont even worry about getting them in at night when like there have been coyotes spotted in the neighborhood do u care if this animal lives or dies??? and now its out here torturing wildlife outside my window for hours and idk all this is normal??? and like local large animal shelter i go to their website cuz at first i thought this cat was a stray it kept trying to sneak into my house has no collar and is kinda skinny until i saw him get carried away by a person and its like they dont even take friendly stray cats animals that would do quite well in a home they say its best to leave them where they are the way it was nearly impossible to get anyone to go out and even just spay and neuter the stray cats my grandmother feeds which like does fuck all but also they keep having very inbred kinda fucked up looking kittens in the yard every year and sometimes dont even bother to raise the kittens and i feel like maybe it would be best if that stopped whatever its just bonkers to me people think its somehow the normal humane thing to do to just leave unhealthy cats on the streets killing wildlife regularly and getting hit by cars like you would definitely call animal control if a stray dog ripped apart a rabbit in your backyard but this is just how cats are they are tortured if they arent allowed to depopulate local animal populations and like i know animal services have limited resources but idk its just mystifying to me guess im the freak keeping my pampered indoor cat leashed so she can merely chase animals rather than kill them....
#like i dont think these rabbits are endangered but i know for a fact#theres at least one great horned owl that lives a few blocks from my house in an old cemetery#and im sure with the small patches of parks and areas that are suitable for these small mammals#its easily thrown off balance when theres suddenly a new cat killing all the rodents#that owl was gonna eat....#and also its driving me crazy that this stupid cat is making it harder for me to be#the responsible pet owner cuz now i gotta preempt conflict wiht my cat#anytime i wanna take her outside

careful what you wish for @grimmfitzz because i have been vibrating wanting to rant all day and now iâve been given permission so itâs cominâ! here we go yall
THE RANT
listen. i am an Alice in Wonderland person. that is my thing. i love everything from the novel. i love the merch. i was Alice at least four halloweens when I was little. picture the thing you love the most of all the things and multiply it by ten and that is how I feel about Alice in Wonderland.
SO YOU CAN IMAGINE THE GRAVITY WHEN I TELL YOU I HATE DISNEY ALICE IN WONDERLAND
let me tell you why.
starting off with the animated 1951 version, i personally donât like that they focused so much on like. giving it a plot. like in the original nothing bad happens, she just is trying to get home and keeps getting stopped by these eccentric little people (she does get chased by the jabberwocky in Through the Looking Glass but thatâs like the not even part of this movie so it doesnât count.) like part of the whimsy of the original novel is that itâs just like her meeting all these silly little people on her way home and thereâs a whole bunch in the 1951 thatâs like put there specifically to move the plot along. which i get, for what theyâre trying to do like i do understand itâs an animated movie for children but like. come on guys you defeated the whole purpose.
Now, as for the 2010 Tim Burton version, I love the aesthetic and the vibe, and even the story and I wholeheartedly believe that that version of Alice did more for feminism than all of the you-can-tell-iâm-a-strong-female-character-because-i-donât-have-a-love-interest bullshit disneyâs been doing the past five ish years combined. however, itâs like. not Alice in Wonderland. like it fits in the same category in my head as a really well done fanfiction because yes, its Alice in Wonderland characters but no itâs not Alice in Wonderland.
But of course, my biggest, nastiest critique of both versions is (*deep breath*) the goddamn Queen of Hearts.
If you know like anything about like Alice in Wonderland *lore* you know that the story is like⊠not an allegory per se but basically itâs supposed to exaggerate how children are sometimes treated by adults.
Like asking stupid questions (the caterpillar) or talking in circles about nonsensical things (the hatter) or giving conflicting or unhelpful directions (the cheshire cat) or telling dark/pointless stories (tweedledee abd tweedledum)
Which brings me to the Queen of Hearts.
Both Disney versions depict my beloved Queen as the main antagonist- the Bad Guyâąïž if you will- but the problem is that in Lewis Carrollâs novel, she actually isnât. The antagonist is the jabberwocky, which is a personification of Fear. The Queen of Hearts is just another crazy adult who says things that Alice doesnât like. If we want to interpret the character into Aliceâs real life, she might be a strict teacher who hands out punishments too generously (off with their heads!) or a governess who is set on dictating every single instant of her life. Itâs an exaggeration! The Queen of Hearts is NOT the Bad Guyâąïž!!!!
ahem anyway that drives me actually bonkers if you canât tell and i know itâs not that important but i wanted to say something anyway lmao so there you go
(if you are looking for a good Alice in Wonderland adaptation try the 1985 made-for-tv one! Itâs like three hours long and itâs so fun and cute and thereâs a bunch of old celebrity cameos! Details here)
#alice in wonderland#tw anti disney#thatâs my beef yall thanks for reading#so sorry mickey thanks for letting me get that out though#shut up jay

Review: Terrifier 3
Terrifier 3Â (2024)
Not rated
<Originally posted at https://kevinsreviewcatalogue.blogspot.com/2024/10/review-terrifier-3-2024.html>
Score: 4 out of 5
With Terrifier 3, the little indie splatter horror franchise that could has entered "franchise mode". On top of its advertising, its merchandising, its tie-in single by Ice Nine Kills, and its staggering box-office success, the movie itself makes Art the Clown as much the main character as its returning heroine Sienna Shaw, with nearly every kill now a horrifying set piece of explosive carnage and Art's sidekick from the last movie, the ambiguously demonic Little Pale Girl, upgraded to a co-villain in her own right as she possesses somebody and joins in on the action herself. The best comparison I can think of is A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master, though I'd argue that this is the better movie of the two by a wide margin, one that not only cleans up the biggest flaw that held back its predecessor but also manages to be a twisted, explosive celebration of practical effects work unbound by the MPA (as in, they just up and released this unrated knowing damn well it would've gotten an NC-17 the second they showed up at the MPA's offices). It's a big, swaggering splatterfest that's as bonkers as its killer clown villain, and while it does unfortunately introduce some new flaws that leave me wondering if Damien Leone, the writer, director, and main visionary behind this series, is getting lost in the weeds a bit with his creation, this is otherwise one hell of an experience.
Set five years after the events of the last movie, our protagonist Sienna Shaw, who has spent her time in and out of psychiatric care thanks to what she experienced in her last encounter with Art the Clown, has just left the hospital to live with her aunt Jess, uncle Greg, and little cousin Gabbie. The idea of a slasher sequel focusing on how traumatized the final girl has become is not a new idea (all the way back in the '90s, Scream 2 and Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later built their heroines' arcs around it), but this movie does it well, in its characteristic fashion. Lauren LaVera gets another great opportunity to play Sienna as more than just the "tough chick" horror heroine, somebody who can undoubtedly still kick Art's ass but has also been left a psychological wreck by all the things she's witnessed. She has visions of her dead friends blaming her for their deaths, the last movie's implications that she was going insane all but spelled out in the text now, and she recoils when Gabbie goes snooping in her diary and reads about some of the things she described in there. We get a flashback to Sienna's childhood, her father played by Jason Patric in a cameo, illustrating how she loved him and driving home how much his decline and ultimate death broke her. I find it amusing how the Terrifier films, with their in-your-face violence and lack of subtlety, are sometimes seen as a rejoinder to the "elevated horror" boom of the last ten years, particularly how many such films use their monsters and demons as metaphors for some trauma in the protagonists' pasts, because Sienna's arc in these movies treads very similar waters -- and, for my money, more or less pulls it off. In two movies, Sienna Shaw has become one of the all-time great horror heroines, and LaVera is central to why.
It also helps, of course, to have a real monster for your heroine to face off against. And here, we have not one, but two of them. I've already sung David Howard Thornton's praises for his performance as Art the Clown before, and he largely sticks to what worked in the past, combining great physical comedy with a mean streak a mile wide to make for a sick, sadistic villain who treats everything like one big joke and is clearly enjoying himself as he hunts and torments his victims. At times, Art feels almost like a silent slasher version of Deadpool, a guy who's in on the joke and feels like he wants to let everybody else in on it too. The Little Pale Girl also makes a return, in a sense, this time possessing the first film's lone survivor Victoria Hayes, who begins the film institutionalized after Art had mutilated her face and driven her insane only for Art to break her out. If Art is a slasher version of the Joker, then the possessed Victoria is his Harley Quinn, a female counterpart who is not only just as vicious and terrifying but also serves as his "voice" throughout the film, being the one who directly taunts people through words as opposed to just gestures. Samantha Scaffidi is playing a character almost wholly different from what she was in the first movie, unrecognizable both literally due to her mangled face and figuratively as she partakes in the violence rather than trying to survive it, and she turned out to be the film's secret weapon, somebody who kept the scares grounded even as Art takes the Freddy Krueger route of becoming a more overtly comedic killer. Victoria brought most of the film's genuine scares here versus Art's more cartoonish carnage, and she proved to be a very welcome addition to not only the lore but also, more importantly, the movie as a whole.
That's not to say that Art isn't scary anymore, though. As I've said when discussing the prior films, sheer visceral excess has a weight to it all its own, and when paired with the more comedic elements of his character, that lends him the feeling of a sick, degenerate troll for whom nothing actually matters except his own amusement. This is a movie that happily crosses lines that other slashers wouldn't dare tread near, a gross display of viscera that offers Leone another chance to show off his special effects craftsmanship with the kind of set piece kills that feel like they were concocted by a schoolyard full of kids in a contest to come up with the sickest ways to die. We get a guy getting the skin on his head ripped off, liquid nitrogen being used to freeze a man's flesh before it's smashed off with a hammer, live rats being shoved down a woman's throat and then eating their way out through her neck, a shower scene to rival the infamous bedroom scene from the second film (...who says that doesn't fit there?), beheadings, dismemberments, the works, as well as Art actually "going there" when it comes to one of horror's biggest taboos. These movies are being hyped up at this point as gauntlets for seasoned horror fans to run (and shock others with), and while the tone is too lighthearted for it to really hang with the grossest examples of splatter horror, make no mistake: the warnings that theaters are putting up for this are there for a reason.
The pacing is tighter this time around, showing that Leone has learned from one of the main criticisms of the last movie. It's still just over two hours long, but it moves a lot quicker than before, each hour respectively feeling like the first two acts of a movie that's setting up for a smashing finale but still delivering the goods where it matters. The plot builds on the second film's implications that there was something more cosmic going on than just a simple slasher story, explicitly naming the Little Pale Girl as a demon and strongly implying that Sienna too has an angel in her corner, ultimately ending on a cliffhanger and leaving a lot of open questions that the fourth movie promises to answer. The added lore did a lot to flesh out the story, put some fun twists on a lot of slasher tropes (the final girl, the killer coming back from the dead), and got me interested in seeing the next one. That said, not only does it create a risk of continuity lockout for people who haven't seen any of the other films, especially with how the opening hinges so much on characters and events from the second film, it also naturally means that this movie's own story is incomplete. A lot hinges on whether the fourth movie sticks the landing, and right now, all I can say is this: at least they didn't try to expand on Art's backstory the way the Nightmare sequels did Freddy's or the Halloween sequels did Michael Myers'. His whole deal boils down to the fact that he was such an evil fuckin' bastard in life (which, if you've seen any of these movies... yeah) that the forces of darkness took a liking to him and revived him as their champion to keep killing. It's a simple explanation that preserves his mystique and doesn't detract from what makes him so enjoyable to watch, the kind of thing you'd expect a slasher fan to come up with if they were asked to develop the lore around a slasher villain, and I appreciated it.
The Bottom Line
Terrifier 3Â isn't without its flaws, but it's still the best film in the series thus far. If Art the Clown isn't a bona fide horror icon at this point, then it's only because he's still fairly new. Check it out if you've got the stomach.

Hmmmm.... Just to be fair to all the Kangaroos, do you have NSFW headcannons for Ryan and Rena? Asking for science. Yup. Just science, nothing more. Don't look at me đ
Just to be fair, yes, of course XD
Okay first of all looks!! Ryan and Rena are inverted colours-wise to what Kingston has. So their shoulders and backs in roo form are that golden peanut-butter like colour while their chest and underbelly are the dusky dark brown colour. And in human form they're both blonde. Ryan wears a very similar hat to Kingston, while Rena wears that shade of blue on her eyelids.
Rena:
THE DEFINITION of a switch XD It completely completely depends on her partner as to which roll she takes- but either way she kills. She can be a total dominatrix, knowing exactly how much force to use to make you cum, but also bat her eyelashes and make herself cry if she thinks that'll really get you going more. She loves both rolls, she doesn't have a preference XD (though... with Henry I think she's probably prefer to be the sweet little sub XD )
She's actually not a great dancer?? Its not her strength đ
She's up to trying (Rena's up for anything), she'll get up on stage and work a pole good enough... but she ain't special. Not star-quality at all đ
She's enthusiastic, though!! Haha.
HIGH sexual appetite. Like, this woman is always looking to fuck. Which is (part of) why she and Kingston go through their non-monogamous phases; sometimes he just can't keep up with her XD đ
(or more like doesn't want to. He can-- he's just not quite as constantly horny as she is)
As I've said before- Rena is a femme fatale. A really fucked up, crazy, borderline depressed femme fatale, but a femme fatale all the same. And as such, she can be d a n g e r o u s l y sexy. I feel like I mostly talk about how batshit bonkers crazy she is, but she c a n often appear to be a mysterious and alluring creature. When she wants someone, she gets them. She's got amazing focus.
She w i l l t o t a l l y flash a person if she's dared to XD (so will Kingston).
Rena masturbates. A lot. Yes, she fucks a lot but sometimes she just... eh, doesn't feel like having anyone else there. She goes into moods where she hates everyone and can't bear to have anyone around her. And she's perfectly capable to give herself a mindblowing orgasm! Sometimes she's romantic with herself, lighting candles and taking herself slowly in the bath tub- and sometimes she dissapears into a dark corner or hallways and fingers herself quick and dirty.
Call her mommy!! Call her daddy!! She's so into it. Fuck yes she's your mommy. Who's your daddy?
Ryan:
Ryan is more a lover then a fucker. He wants to treat his girl (or gentleman caller) with respect- but oh my goddddddd he will drive you crazy. You'll want him to use you so bad. And he will... but it'll really take some convincing. And he may have to be a little pissed off, too.
Yes, Ryan may prefer to treat you nicely during sex... but that doesn't mean he's not in control. He will hold you perfectly still in order to eat you out properly, hold you down to pound you, hold your wrists together above your head, etc. He wants you to feel good!!
And- hell yes- Ryan loves to go down on his partner. Genuinly loves it. For his own pleasure as well as theirs. Whether it's a pretty pussy or a nice big cock he's gonna want it in and around his mouth.
Consent king. He taps articles of clothing before taking them off to get your permission, meticulously remembers even in the HOTTEST heat of the moment where you don't like being touched, leans in and waits for you to lean in the rest of the way. Also after-care king.
Very willing to fuck his friends. Kingston? Definitely!! He loves Kingston! If his best buddy wants an orgasm he'll take care of it. Wheezy? That guy is objectively hot as hell and he doesnt mind admitting it- so no he doesn't mind fucking him, at all. Poppy? If she's into it he'll take such good care of her ^^ Show her, platonically, how she should be getting fucked.
If Ryan were in the digital age- he would be e x c e l l e n t at dick pics and videos. No awkward shots of the head, no no. He's good at this. He'll send a picture of his hard cock hugged in tight underpants, he'll send a video of him adjusting this very obvious bulge. He'll tease you to death until finally he sends you a video of him pumping it. He likes dick too- he knows what we wanna see XD đ
BONUS: Extra Kingston
THESE ARE TOTALLY HIM XDDD

Assimilation #3: Deception
Originally published Feb 11, 2016 This series is being revised
Charlotte could feel him now. Her husband, Ed, his mind joining the collective's. They were all individual vessels, but with the same master housed inside it was like they were all components to one large machine. Charlotte was tapped into the other convert's minds, she knew where they were doing, and she could feel The Master growing stronger with each new conquest. She knew that Gabrielle had returned home and, with the help of her newly assimilated sister, was now converting her parents. They would fight, of course, but she knew that everyone succumbs. Like Ed, still working his tongue mindlessly between Charlotte's folds, consuming more of the Master's juices.
When the Master was finished with a vessel, it would retreat into a state of hibernation, allowing its converts to continue their lives relatively unaware that their bodies were host to this mysterious parasite. There were side effects: Charlotte and Ed's sex drives multiplied, making them hornier than they'd been since their honeymoon. It was actually pretty helpful for the marriage. And then there were the dreams; foggy recollections of the evil deeds committed while under the Master's influence. Charlotte would awake in a cold sweat after one of her bizarrely real nightmares of fucking a student into submission. She would take a deep breath, Ed would ask her what was wrong, and then they'd fuck.
Four months passed.
Corbin loved a good mystery, that was part of the reason she'd started the whole campus detective thing. That, and of course, to fight the unchecked crime around campus. But as fulfilling as it was, sometimes taking photos of a cheating boyfriend felt a little beneath her. Corbin knew that there were bigger mysteries to tackle, and she had a sense for finding them too. Corbin wasn't excited to receive an internship with a fashion reporter, but she had stumbled upon a massive conspiracy of blackmail, brainwashing, and just generally unethical business practices.
"Brainwashing," Kelly repeated back to Corbin, just so she could hear the words come out of someone else's mouth. "Victoria's Secret is brainwashing women, including your mentor, around the world with mind controlling underwear." "Well, you make it sound so crazy but...is it?" "God damn, Corbin, everything is a conspiracy with you." "No, Kelly! Listen to me: it's called 'Obedience by Victoria,' they're not even being transparent about it!" "It's not a story, Corbin! Everybody knows what the lingerie does. It's...kind of exciting, actually." "You've used it before?" Corbin scooted a few inches down the park bench, eyeing Kelly like she'd just outed herself as a pod person. "I'm okay. It's just good fun in bed. I've never even worn it in public." Corbin frowned. "Well, whatever. You're a consenting adult. I'm talking about Victoria's Secret abusing its product, establishing a network, a culture of loyal, brainwashed soldiers to sustain an ever expanding financial empire--" "Corbin," Kelly cut her off with a polite smile. "It's a lingerie company."
For a biostats major, Kelly could be awfully dimwitted. Kelly was supermodel beautiful, but she never used her looks to get anything. She'd worked the hard way into Carpenter State and probably could have gone to the Ivy League if she were a prestige chaser. But despite all of her intelligence, Kelly simply refused to see the truth, even when Corbin spelled it out for her. She was still the naive girl Corbin had known in high school who followed the popular kids' lead. No doubt she'd been drunk or high when she was talked into trying Obedience by Victoria. Corbin hated the thought of her best friend being subjugated like that. Completely powerless...
"Yeah, well," Corbin continued, trying to fight off the image of half-naked mindless bimbo Kelly. "This place has gone bonkers since the lingerie launched. Did you know CSU's average GPA has dropped in the last two years? Why do you think that is?" "It's because of all the fucking," Kelly joked. "They've come to me, Kelly. Girls who have been forced to do things against their will by their boyfriends. And it's not just the students," Corbin added. "You know Professor Blake?" "English, right?" "She's been acting different too. The other day she was reading an excerpt from my paper, and I swear I heard her...moan. Like it was getting her hot." "Wasn't it about lesbian themes in Shakespeare?" "She's a professional, Kelly. She's supposed to operate a certain standard above that kind of behavior. If I had my guess, I'd say one of the professors, Dean Pierce even, is using the lingerie to brainwash the faculty." "But why? There's absolutely no reason--" "That's what I'm going to find out," Corbin cut Kelly off with a coy smile. "I got an email from Professor Blake this morning. She wants me to meet with her on Thursday after class." "If she's under some kind of lingerie-induced mind control and if she's a small part of this big conspiracy you've discovered...what's to stop her from fitting you with a pair of that lingerie?" "Are you kidding?" Corbin laughed. "I'm too good for that."
Thursday came fast, but Professor Blake's class crawled. Corbin could barely focus on the seminar, her mind occupied with the conspiracy. Professor Blake seemed fine today as she spoke, but after the incident with the Shakespeare paper, it made Corbin uneasy. It was almost like Professor Blake was too normal. She was eager for that meeting.
"Take a seat, Corbin." Professor Blake said as she led the girl into her small office. Corbin had never seen the inside of her professor's office, and was surprised to see the condition she kept it in: the desk was a mess with papers and textbooks, with even more stacked up along the floor. She barely had room on the desktop to fit her computer. "I apologize if it's cramped," the professor smiled. "I haven't earned the deluxe office yet."
"It's fine," Corbin smiled timidly as she took a seat across from her professor. "Why did you want to meet with me, Professor?" she asked kindly, trying to mask her distrust. "Charlotte, please," Professor Blake replied. "It's been a pleasure, reading your work. You have an eye for controversy unlike any student I've ever had, Corbin. And of course, you have the words to share what you see. That is a very powerful gift." "Thank you, Professor, um, Charlotte," Corbin nervously pulled a strand of hair behind her ear. "I understand that you have an internship this semester?" "Yes," Corbin nodded. "With a fashion reporter." "But you don't care about fashion, do you?" Corbin shook her head. "No, not really."
Charlotte sighed, and Corbin noticed a sort of somber look on her face. "Corbin, I didn't call you into my office to compliment you, though you certainly deserve it," A bad feeling was growing in the pit of Corbin's stomach, and she shifted in her chair to ready herself in case she had to bolt. "This day comes for all of us, Corbin, and I think it's better that it comes for you sooner rather than later." "What are you...?" Corbin began, but she trailed off at the sight of Professor Blake's eyes turning pearl white. "You have been chosen, Corbin Arroyo..."
"Oh fuck," Corbin breathed, and quickly snapped a picture of Charlotte with her phone before knocking over her chair as she bolted out of the office. Corbin sprinted wildly down the hallway, busting through the double doors into the lecture room where she ran into... "Corbin!" Kelly cried. "K-Kelly," Corbin gasped. "We've got to run, Kelly, we've got to..." "It's alright, Corbin! It's alright!" Kelly assured her friend. "The Master doesn't want to hurt you."
Corbin looked up at her friend, saw those same blank eyes staring back at her.
"Oh God," she cried. "They got you...they got you too..." she backed up toward the double doors, but heard the sound of Professor Blake entering behind her. Charlotte, Corbin was shocked to see, had stripped naked.
"You cannot fight it, dear," Charlotte said. "All life surrenders to the Master," Kelly added. "Kelly," tears slid down Corbin's face. "What's happening?" "The Master claimed me, Corbin," Kelly smiled as she took a step closer to her friend. She pulled her shirt over her head to expose her bra, her smooth stomach. "And now the Master wants you." "We are hosts," Charlotte continued. "to a greater power than you could ever understand." "And soon your body and mind will belong to the Master as well," Kelly stepped out of her jeans and unclasped her bra, freeing her breasts from their restraints. She was advancing closer, her hips moving hypnotically with each step. Corbin retreated, backing up into the warm embrace of Professor Blake. She could feel the woman's tits pressing against her back.
submit
"Do you hear that?" Charlotte whispered into Corbin's ear as the girl struggled superficially to break her free. "The Master calls for you, Corbin. You must answer." "No..." Corbin tried to shake off the voices as they swarmed through her head. "I won't surrender...I...I'll warn everybody...I'll..." "Corbin," Kelly interrupted, and Corbin looked up to see her best friend standing inches away from her, completely naked. "You find this body pleasing to the eyes, do you not?" "Wha-what?" Kelly's smile grew larger. "I've seen the way you look at me, those stolen glances. I can feel your eyes on my ass, Corbin." "No...I'm not..."
strip
Corbin hadn't felt Charlotte release her. Slowly, the dazed girl unconsciously lifted her arms, and Charlotte helped Corbin remove her top in compliance with the voice in her head. Kelly admired her friend's breasts as Corbin continued to disrobe. "You've always wondered, haven't you? You've always wanted to know what I taste like, but you've been too scared to ask." "Kelly...please..." Corbin begged, but the mental assault was overpowering her. "Haven't you?" "Y-yes..." Corbin whimpered. Kelly moaned as she slid her fingers into her pussy. When she pulled them out, she held her hand up for Corbin to see the Master's juices coating her fingers. They smelled so good, Corbin's mind nearly blanked right there. "Please," Corbin meekly begged, but this time she wasn't asking for her freedom. Kelly complied with her friend's wishes and slid her finger's into the girl's mouth.
Corbin dropped to her knees, face inches away from Kelly's dripping pussy. She wanted more, she needed more.
drink
Corbin obeyed.

Anime of 2023, a List By Miyo
Here we go again, it's 2023 and the year has gone by with another year of anime and all those kinda fun things. It felt like another year where we were encumbered with isekai stuff I mostly avoided and anime overworking its staff as always. I guess atleast there weren't any hacks that delayed Precure this time? I dunno, let's all say hello to my anime list of 2023 of shows I enjoyed or wanted to talk about some.

https://miyoron.tumblr.com/post/705216685374865408/miyos-animes-of-2022-a-list-about-things-i-liked
***
As always, I use whatever version of the title I am most comfy writing. Also these aren't in any order other than sort of by release? I wrote down shows when I finished them so earlier in the year shows end up first. This is my science.
TomoChan is a Girl
This show is a fun little romcom that's about a violent girl and her childhood friend who she wants to go out with. The only problem is she's ridiculously tomboyish and violent and they've been friends so long, he legit just sees her as his bestie dude karate friend. This is the driving force for the show and expect Tomo to constantly knock Jun upside the head in response to his failing to see her romantic advances.
The show has an enjoyable cast of secondary characters besides the main ones with dour Misuzu always around to cut people down and active embodiment of chaos Carol whoâŠwell, girl is just a walking ditz meme. There's fun hidden depth there even with a show that sometimes has a problem with being a lil too horny. I liked it though, they were fun chars and thinking back on them as I write this up makes me remember them fondly.
Akiba Maid War
Akiba Maid War is one of those shows that is a spectacle over substance when you think about it. However, that spectacle is bonkers and was ridiculously fun to watch. A period piece about the fictional gang style wars of maid cafes in Akihabara, the show is a tale that's as comedic as it is violent. Newcomer Nagomi must learn the ways of maids and the high stakes battles between the maid hierarchy.
Like I said, it's a VERY silly show and ridiculously violent. Calling it a black comedy is pretty on the nose but it absolutely fits. I really don't want to say too much about it, but if you want to see maids murder each other in John Wick-esque violence then I say check it out. It even has some nice drama too amongst it all. Go do it, watch the pig maids!
Nijiyon Animation
Love Live Nijiyon I don't have too much to say on to be honest. It was more time with characters I liked and they had goofy little jokes. Wild this is getting a second season next year but hey why not?
~*~Time for the Precure Cornerrrr~*~
Hirogaru Sky Precure
This is a year of firsts for Precure. The fact the first Precures were the blue and white ones, the introduction of an adult and boy Precures who aren't just side characters in one episode..lots of wild stuff. Hero girl Sora and her bestie Mashiro are such a good pair. Tsubasa is a fun nerd and Ageha rules in the tradition of "older Precure, will kick your ass." The villains have been mostly fun, if a little underwritten. Still, I liked Wario but a pig man and shithead dweeb.
The Precure this year has been pretty solid to be honest, and the official subs have gotten a LOT better in quality so things sound way less like it's being done by some poor intern down in Toei's dungeons. Good designs, good style, pretty much a good season to start with if you're curious. Also for a while we got to see older Precures at the end for the 20th anniversary so yay~
Yes Precure 5 Go Go
So we finished the second half of the Yes 5 series and it wasâŠfine? I still don't really like Milk and even moreso Milky Rose. She's not my least fave cure but she's up there. Coco and Nuts are still bleh and new friend Syrup was ehhhh. Really the main thing I learned to love this year was Bunbee. It's an early season though so I suppose it was still growing pains. This one (like Max Heart) probably could've just been combined into the first series as one year long show and not TWO separate ones.
Dokidoki Precure
DokiDoki Precure is an interesting one because there is a lot there to like. It's got a fun cast, some dopey villains and a good energy to it all. There's also the ugliest Precure baby I can think of so there's that. I didn't initially like Cure Ace but she grew on me over time which is funny cuz meanwhile I was all in on Regina who is just a shithead goblin (complimentary).
Like I said, it's a nice little series and I enjoyed the character a lot. Mana is a good girl who loves all of her friends and anyone she can make friends with. I think my favorite is Alice though just because she's basically Batman in Precure form, even down to the hyper competent butler. I think going into this show I was thinking it was going to be one of the lesser ones, but I liked it more than I thought I would so that's a win in the end.
Power of Hope ~ Precure Full Bloom
I'm putting this on here to complete the Precure chat and I think ultimately I was disappointed by it more than happy. Maybe I was expecting something I was never going to get, who knows. The idea of grown up Precure characters having to do their adult ass lives is an interesting one and I really did like all the designs they came up with for the older characters. But the fact they all just transformed into their older, middle schooler designs, and even used the same old footage, was just kind of a bummer for me. Honestly, it felt like a movie that was stretched out over 3 months of TV and probably could've just been that. Maybe they'll do something different when they do the Mahou Tsukai grown ups next. Also Bunbee was here too so yay.
*~*Thus Concludes Precure Corner*~*
Urusei Yatsura
With friends in tow, finally actually watched some Urusei Yatsura, or rather the 2022 remake series. It's got a lot of what I feel would become the staple Rumiko Takahashi comedy violence in it and I can see why it helped her later works. This is one of those shows where I don't know much to say about because I feel people know what it's about butâŠoni lady from space comes to Earth, says she's a pervy dweeb's wife and shenanigans ensue from there. A goofy cast of characters that was just an overall silly time. More to come next year!
Mobile Suit Gundam the Witch from Mercury (S2)
Not too much to add to this one since I talked about how I liked it last year, but I like where it took the story. Showing Miorine having to deal with being in charge of her dad's company while he was out injured and showing how people dealt with past traumas that affected their present lives. I mean, it's probably basic Gundam stuff, but I enjoyed it. There were a lot of good dramatic moments and one particular episode that really hit hard on the heart strings.
The ending was great and, honestly, the only problem is we only got 2 cours worth and not a whole year long show. That being said, I hope we do get to see Suletta again and not just in Super Robot Wars games. Also, don't let anyone try to tell you they aren't married at the end. That's just denying the truth.
Inu-Oh
What a cool fucking movie. Cool fucking visuals, cool fucking soundtrack. Just everything about it was a good watch. Made me feel happy, sad..just yea. A tale of friendship between a blind biwa player and a cursed-deformed dancer, it's a really lovely story with like I said..it's just really good and you should check it out. Sorry I don't have better words for this. I think I just want you to discover it for yourselves!
Skip and Loafer
Skip and Loafer is a cute little slice of life with some romance elements in it with a cute cast of characters from all walks of life. Awkward over-acheiver Mitsumi tries to make her way in the big city high school where she becomes friends with others ranging from the overly chill, but complex, Sosuke to the seemingly aloof Yuzuki. It's a nice little story that treads some of the typical high school anime things but has a lot of hidden depth behind the characters.
Like I often seem to say, it's one of those ones I wish wasn't only 12 episodes and deserves more. It even has a nice bit of LGBTQ+ representation in it with Mitsumi's Aunt Nao. Seriously, fun little show, I want more.
Oshi no Ko
Oshi no Ko was initially one I wasn't going to check out because the synopsis for it made me very confused and I thought it was JUST too weird. Let there be no mistake, it's a fucking weird premise and sometimes it gets awkward because of that. That being said, I ended up very invested in the story because I really want to know the answer to the overarching mystery of the show. Who dun it huh? Who dun it?!
This show has a lot to say about the entertainment industry, specifically the shittiness of it and I think that's ultimately a good thing. Word of warning, episode 6 and 7 are REALLY heavy and the official subs even have a warning before and after the episodes because of it. Next year there's another season incoming so I will look forward to more Memcho in our future. Also, probably one of the more hype openings this year. Yoasobi is one of my new favorite artists and I enjoy when they do stuff (they also did a G Witch opening so!)
Yohane the Parhelion: Sunshine in the Mirror
A Love Live April Fools joke that became its own actual show. What a time to be alive. This is an interesting little piece though and had some nice things going for it. As always the music and visuals were good and I like the set up of it all. Plus, I'm always happy to see the Sunshine cast in things since they're the ones I've spent the most time with.
That being said, the show's plot leaves a lot to be desired since some episodes it feels like they forgot they were supposed to have one to be honest. Still though, if you like Love Live Sunshine, you'll probably enjoy this too. Some characters act a little different but I think that's fine since they're in a different setting. Go watch it if you wanna, I dunno!
Spy x Family (S3)
Spy x Family continues its fun times from last year and I'm glad to have more of it. They even did an episode on the "Yor Gets Shot in the Ass" chapter which is a really fun and silly one. Yea it was a good time for more spy times, lots of good action set pieces and silly little moments in between. It's like a hugely popular show, I don't know what all you want me to say on this. It's fun and good!
Birdie Wing Golf Girls' Story
We finished the golf! It went even more soap opera and weird! It even felt like they did a Happy GIlmore reference unintentionally! I loved this weird stupid show. I miss it.
Scott Pilgrim Takes Off
This was an interesting one to say the least, I'm not quite done with it yet but Science Saru plus Scott Pilgrim is a fun set up. It's a complete retelling of the show and honestly I'm for it. A lot more stuff with Ramona and in the Japanese dub, Kim is played by Cure Gelato so yea. If you liked the original series, this should be on your list to check out. And if you liked the movie, all the original actors reprise their roles so bonus points.
Side Things I Enjoyed But Don't Have Much to Say On
Otaku Elf
It's a cute silly little series about a dweeb ass elf. It was fun~
Akane Banashi
This is a manga I started reading a couple months back about a girl trying to become a pro Rakugo performer to avenge her father, but also to claim her own spot in the competitive world of this Japanese art. It's a fun thing that's played really over the top like a sports/battle manga. I enjoy it, you should cheek it out!
The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady
A series that's ostensibly an isekai but the main character does not seem to have any knowledge of her previous life. At least, outside of vague things like "I saw a witch flying on a broom in a dream that may have been memories of a past I don't remember?? so I'm going to fly on a broom." An interesting one that didn't take the coward's way out at the end either.
So I think this is all I have to say this year? It's not much but it's my little list~ I hope you all enjoyed it~
For next year, I'm looking forward to finishing up the last old Precure season, Happiness Charge. We've also started the original Doremi so that should be fun. We also started watching Freiren so I feel that'll probably be on next year's list so watch out for that. And Dungeon Meshi is very soon too! Hope you all had a good 2023 and let's hope next year is a good one. Or atleast a non painful one.
