Zero Chill || Claude & Joanna

@amaidasfairassummer con’t from {x}

The man was becoming more flirtatious, and whilst Joanna wasn’t interested, he was nice enough for her to continue to talk to him. It wasn’t long though before she felt Claude’s arm come round her, and the first thing that struck her was how unusually warm he was. She turned to ask if he had a temperature but immediately saw that that was not the case. The anger in his voice alarmed her and she wasn’t surprised to see the flirter scarper quickly.

“That wasn’t necessary, you know,” Joanna said gently. “He wasn’t doing any harm, and even if he was I could have handled it.” It wasn’t as though she had no experience with that sort of thing. Most likely, Claude saw her as young and weak and small, but she had been able to look after herself well enough so far. “I don’t need to be protected.”

Usually Claude’s facial features were set to the definition of the concept of a resting BITCH face, a perfect cross between looking despondent, BORED & slightly irritated but at the retreat of his COMPETITION (because right now that was ALL Claude was capable of perceiving the other man whether Joanna was interested or not) he actually smiled... It was NOT a pleasant one, in fact it was better described as an incredibly crazed display of his eerily sharp white teeth, not at ALL aided by the very LOUD snap of said teeth (somewhat reminiscent of a BEAR TRAP as opposed to the jaw of a MAN) after his retreat a wordless but poignant expression of ‘Fuck off, mate’ without him having to SPEAK his sentiments aloud. 

The very FIRST noise Joanna heard actually DIRECTED at her was a long, exasperated inhale, his free hand rising to pinch the bridge of his nose... It was one of his self imposed anger management techniques because he was much closer to utterly losing his patience with her... He ADORED her but she had the mental capacity of a goddamn half filled bucket at the WORST of times. When he was POSITIVE he would NOT shake her at a velocity forceful enough to get Sherriff Nottingham called to the location post haste he FINALLY let go of his nose, both of his hands moved to switch to her shoulders before he swung around to give her a head on view of his face, the movement possessing the usual grace that seemed ALIEN for someone so large (at least someone who was UNAWARE of how LONG he had taken ballet lessons as a child) his head tilting at an angle that was JUST slightly too far to seem COMFORTABLE for anybody.

“... Miss Lannister. You think I did THAT because I thought you needed PROTECTION? If I thought that he would be a pile of thoroughly tenderised flesh on the floor in front of you,” he breathed, sounding only SLIGHTLY calmer though his tone was... A lot more ominous than his standard monotone.

“I could have EATEN him if I so pleased.”

“That’sssss my job,” the bar tender quipped, unable to resist.

“Kaa.”

“Sssssorry.”

“As I was SAYING I did not do that to be some sort of bitchass white knight. Want to try that a g a i n, Cakepop?”

(Darth Vader came to see baby Ezra Bridger)

Darth Vader:It's so ugly, you could almost feel sorry for it.[He tried to fright him but the baby continued to smile] I hate you. Brat.

(Later, baby Ezra crying)

Queen Neeyutnee: Why is he crying?

C-3PO: I think he might be hungry.

Tee Wat Kaa:(Seeing the boobs of Queen Neeyutnee because She Is a Human)Then feed him!

(But Queen Neeyutnee instead to feed baby Ezra with the breast, She give him a jogar fruit while R2-D2 making a disgusting beep)

Queen Neeyutnee: There you are. There you go.

(Boba Fett made a facepalm)

Darth Vader:(While he tapping his ears) It's going to starve with those four looking after it.

(Then in a night, Boba give a milk bottle mixed with jogar fruit, feed baby Ezra and then he cuddle him)

Voila~!😃My fave gay fishes are back, baby!🥰🐍🤎❤️🩷����💜🎧 I've been meaning to draw some more Synkaa as requested by my sweet sis herself, @x-elyssa-x and I finally got the chance before Halloween and the return of the kitty boop fest, but spookier!😗🐾 I really wanted to draw Kanye being flirty with Synth and hypnotizing him~😏Yush, Kanye has hypnotic powers (just like Kaa) and since he's therapist/hypnotherapist, he uses them to relax and help others during their sessions, especially Synth with his fear in me and Ely's stories. Yet...Kanye still likes to hypnotize him every now and then, for he's just as adorable when hypnotized~😚 And the song that Kanye is singing, is from a really good fanimation called The Sun's Tear (made in 2022) and titled, 'You'll Be Mine'. I made a lowered tone version specially for Kanye, and you can listen to the original song here~🎶

I am also dead chuffed of how Synth's pose came out exactly how I wanted it during Kanye's flirting (this took place after meeting and becoming friends, though for Kanye, it was love at first sight~💘😉) and them resting in bed together with their hair down~💖😍You could say...potential afterglow, hehe~🤭 Hope you all like, dear!👍🏻✨Especially you, my lovely Ely~💗🫂It feel so good to draw our cute gay little fishies once more - I just love them SOOOOO MUCH as you do~!🐍🤎❤️💚💜🎧🤗💕xoxo.

*~Reblogs are also deeply appreciated as well, so please do reblog as well as like! Thank-you kindly!~*

Special Fan-kai Alert: Elastinyan

This shouldn’t have taken me 4 days but it’s finally complete! With a new title board too.

I made him in the concept art but here he looks much better, a lot more normal cat like i think. i like the addition on patterns/scars on his tail.

Elastinyan Is C rank drain attribute of the mysterious tribe with the soultimate Stretch n Bash, where he springs himself at the target with his claws or head. As i previously mentioned, he can stretch his body anyway he likes(basically like Jake the dog). He can also pull a Kaa like from the jungle book, interpret that as you will. He’s jades first yo-kai he ever met and helped him get one in fact.

I won’t say much in terms of his backstory but there’s a reason he has those patterns and isn’t too fond of humans😅

But i hope you enjoy this rubbery gremlin >:3

Tentacle

The suggestion had been intimidating, but you knew deep down that it excited you. What would it feel like? How would your mind respond? How would your body? You might not have been sure if it would even work. Then you felt the first one brush against your leg, and you knew your mind was in trouble.

Maybe tentacle wasn’t the right word. It has a certain connotation and a whole lot of baggage that comes along with it. But the word wasn’t the important thing. What was important was how it felt. And what it did to you. And you’d been told it would feel exactly the way your subconscious wanted it to. Smooth or rough. Cool or warm. It would be exactly the touch your mind and body needed in that moment. And it was.

As the first one wrapped around your leg, as it slowly rose up your body, you couldn’t help but imagine Kaa coiling his way up the length of you, his colorful swirling eyes filling your vision. This was something different though. That was clear when you felt the second one. And then the third, and the fourth. It’s amazing how many sensations your mind can keep track of. And it’s amazing how good they can all feel when you have been put in the right frame of mind.

The pleasure of it. The pure, visceral enjoyment of those sensations along your skin. They cause your mind to soften. Cause it to open. They are meant to weaken you. But as those touches spread, as you feel your limbs caressed and then restrained, as your body is explored, all you are free to do is feel and allow it happen. You feel yourself weakening. Wanting, aching for what comes next. But still they explore, feeling more and more of your body exposed to their touch. More and more of your body responding to those suggestions of pleasure. More and more of your body getting exactly the sensation it craves.

So when the first of them slips inside of you, all you feel is the bliss of release. The loosening of tension. It’s an indescribable sensation. You have nothing to compare it to. The term “mindfucked” feels apropos, but you have no frame of reference for what that might actually mean. All you know is, you can feel them in your head. You can feel them exploring, searching, sinking deeper into you. And you are so open, so ready. Those firms touches on your skin continue, becoming more insistent, more possessive. You feel them claiming you inch by inch as they envelop you more and more completely. And the pleasure only increases, only makes you want more. The pleasure makes you want to give in more. And deeper and deeper into your head it quests. Deeper and deeper inside of you. Filling you.

There is an instant, when it first makes contact with your brain, that you feel a pulse flow through all of it. Through every inch of contact it makes with you, and you feel yourself shudder with it. You feel its excitement, the thrill of its victory as it finds what it seeks. And you share that feeling of triumph. Its victory is your victory. It’s triumph is your triumph. You feel what it wants you to feel. And then it is wrapping up your mind, flowing into it, filling it as it has filled your body. For a moment, you are aware of each individual neuron, each synapse, as it makes contact. It is integrating into every part of you. Every thought, every feeling, every desire. And then it pulses again, and all you are aware of is pleasure.

Just as every touch helped your body to open, helped you to want to give in more and more, every caress of your grey matter helps you open your mind, helps your surrender become more complete. It maps your mind, constricting and controlling it as it does your body. Feeling exactly the way you need it to in this moment. The way that feels best. The way that makes you most helpless to its control.

You are aware of resistance. Little spots of tension in your muscles or in your mind that don’t immediately yield. You feel them being probed, prodded, explored. You notice the little tickle of fibrils penetrating into them, like water into a crack, ready to expand. Ready to sink deeper. It wants all resistance gone from you, mind and body, so you want all resistance gone. You notice the way it prepares, methodically surrounding each little nodule, noting every crack, every weakness. You feel that push against the last parts of you that don’t belong to it. You feel that squeeze. You feel it pause.

And then every part of you is alive with pleasure. Wave after wave of mind shattering ecstasy. Your body moves, following its directions. Your mind shatters open, your thoughts and your will leaking out. Endorphins flood into your brain and your awareness fades into white hot pleasure. For a moment, there is nothing but bliss. Timeless and total.

Gradually awareness returns. There is calm. Peace. Those few little motes of resistance obliterated. No trace of them remain. You are now one with it, completely and fully integrated into it. One with its will. One with its desires. Your body is an extension of it, a puppet that moves and acts and thinks as it desires for you to. And even as you feel it withdraw from the surface of your body, the sensation of it sliding against every part of you feeling just as wonderful as before, it is still there. Your body longs for its touch the moment it is removed, but it remains deep inside of you. You feel it within your body and deep in your mind. A part of it stays with you always, just as you always stay within its control. Your body moves, your decisions guiding your motion for the first time since it took you over. But your decisions are no longer yours. They belong to it. You belong to it. And you want only to serve. To obey. And that perfect obedience is rewarded with perfect pleasure.

Here is the first introduction of my new OC(s)! C:

I'll introduce them properly in the info posts, but for now, he name is Akshaya and the snake is her familiar, his name is Kuldeep~ She's a half human, half snake beastfolk~ They're based on Kaa from the Jungle Book.

I've had them as OCs for a while, but there were lots of important details I wasn't so sure on so it took me so long to finally have then finished enough to share here. But from now on you'd see content of them here too C:

I hope you like the drawing, it was hard to make with the snake and all <3

Commissions are open, check out my pinnned post if you’re interested~

hello najia, we've always made loubia beans like a dal at home in india, so tomorrow i'm going to try it your (the original?) way! i have two questions though:

i got harissa paste from the store instead of powder. how can i substitute that in? should i add it earlier on when blooming the spices or later on with the tomato?

if one were not vegan so open to adding meat, what stocks would you recommend? what meat stocks are typically used in moroccan loubia? what do stocks do to the flavour apart from making it thicker and richer? (i've never used stocks in cooking and I'm very interested in trying it with dal for example!)

"Loubia" is just sort of the word for "beans" (or certain kinds of beans) so I'm sure it's used by people from different countries in different ways--in Morocco it's used to refer specifically to the stew made by cooking white beans with tomato, onion, olive oil, spices &c. The same cooking method used on a different base product gives you "l'des" (similarly just the word for "lentils," but we mostly use it to refer to lentils cooked in this particular way). Some people throw everything into the pot at the same time, while others fry off the onion, garlic, and tomato first and then add the beans and water (which I go into more in my l'des recipe).

I mentioned harissa powder as a potential alternative to red chili powder, which some people include in loubia & some people don't. Harissa paste isn't a typical inclusion in these stews--we use it as a condiment with a finished meal (couscous, kebabs, &c.). If you're going to use chili powder, keep in mind that here this refers to just dried, powdered red chili peppers, not "chili powder" the spice blend used to flavor "chili" the dish. You could also use a slit fresh red or green chili, cayenne powder, a dried red chili broken into several pieces, or just omit it.

Both loubia and l'des are very frequently vegetarian. Some people add cured dried meat (al qadid), ground beef (kefta), or cubed beef (al Hem). If you're adding beef, it should be fried at the beginning before adding beans and water.

These bean / pulse stews typically use water. The 'stock' you would get if you included meat would just result from the meat simmering in the water along with the other ingredients (which is what my suggestion for vegetable stock or faux beef stock concentrate is seeking to mimic).

Here's a video recipe for loubia including meat. Some words:

maqadir: ingredients

al-Hem: meat / beef

bSla: onion (she says "jouj bSla," "two onions". later she says "bSla Hmra," red onion, and "bSla bayda," white onion)

matesha: tomato (later she specifies that she has pureed four tomatoes)

kaas dyal zit: tea glass of [olive] oil

chwiya dyal mlHa: a little salt

zafran khirqum: fake saffron used for colouring purposes

touma: garlic

qzbara wa madnous, mqtte': minced cilantro/coriander and parsley

flflat Harin: spicy peppers

skinjbir: ginger (jouj ma'lqa sghar--two small spoonfulls)

bzar: black pepper (two spoons)

khirqum / khirqum bldi: turmeric (two spoons)

kilo dyal loubia: 1 kilogram of white beans
