By the way, you can improve your executive function. You can literally build it like a muscle.
Yes, even if you're neurodivergent. I don't have ADHD, but it is allegedly a thing with ADHD as well. And I am autistic, and after a bunch of nerve damage (severe enough that I was basically housebound for 6 months), I had to completely rebuild my ability to get my brain to Do Things from what felt like nearly scratch.
This is specifically from ADDitude magazine, so written specifically for ADHD (and while focused in large part on kids, also definitely includes adults and adult activities):
Here's a link on this for autism (though as an editor wow did that title need an editor lol):
Resources on this aren't great because they're mainly aimed at neurotypical therapists or parents of neurdivergent children. There's worksheets you can do that help a lot too or thought work you can do to sort of build the neuro-infrastructure for tasks.
But a lot of the stuff is just like. fun. Pulling from both the first article and my own experience:
Play games or video games where you have to make a lot of decisions. Literally go make a ton of picrews or do online dress-up dolls if you like. It helped me.
Art, especially forms of art that require patience, planning ahead, or in contrast improvisation
Listening to longform storytelling without visuals, e.g. just listening regularly to audiobooks or narrative podcasts, etc.
Meditation
Martial arts
Sports in general
Board games like chess or Catan (I actually found a big list of what board games are good for building what executive functioning skills here)
Woodworking
Cooking
If you're bad at time management play games or video games with a bunch of timers
Things can be easier. You might always have a disability around this (I certainly always will), but it can be easier. You do not have to be this stuck forever.

Mastering the Art of Dialogue
Dialogue is the lifeline of any narrative. It brings characters to life, propels the plot, and creates depth in the story. However, writing dialogue that feels real and engaging can be challenging. Here are some tips to help you refine your dialogue-writing skills:
1. Listen to Real Conversations
The foundation of great dialogue is authenticity. Spend time listening to how people speak in real life. Notice the flow of conversation, the interruptions, the ums and ahs, and the unfinished thoughts. Real speech is rarely grammatically perfect or fully articulated. Incorporating these nuances can make your dialogue more relatable.
2. Each Character Should Have a Unique Voice
Your characters should be distinguishable by their dialogue alone. A teenager will speak differently from an elderly person; a doctor will use different terminology than a street artist. Think about their background, education, and personality. These factors should influence their speech patterns, vocabulary, and even the rhythm of their dialogue.
3. Use Dialogue to Show, Not Tell
Dialogue is a powerful tool for showing the reader what’s happening without explicitly telling them. Through conversations, you can reveal your characters' thoughts, feelings, and intentions. For example, instead of narrating that a character is nervous, you could show it through their stammering dialogue or their avoidance of direct answers.
4. Keep It Concise
In real conversations, people often meander through their thoughts. In written dialogue, however, it's important to be concise. Every line of dialogue should serve a purpose, whether it’s moving the plot forward, revealing character, or creating tension. If a piece of dialogue doesn’t add value to your story, consider cutting it.
5. Read Your Dialogue Aloud
One of the best ways to test your dialogue is to hear it. Reading your dialogue aloud can help you catch awkward phrasings or unnatural speech patterns. Better yet, have someone else read it to you. This can provide insight into how your dialogue will sound to your readers.
6. Use Subtext to Your Advantage
Not everything needs to be said explicitly. Subtext—the underlying meaning behind the spoken words—can add depth and complexity to your dialogue. Characters might say one thing but mean another, based on their emotions, relationships, or situations. This layering of meaning can make your dialogue more engaging and thought-provoking.
7. Balance Dialogue with Action and Description
While dialogue is critical, it should be balanced with narrative description and action. This balance helps maintain the pacing of your story and ensures that your scenes are visually and emotionally compelling. Action and description can also provide context that enhances the meaning and impact of your dialogue.
Conclusion
Great dialogue can transform a good story into an unforgettable one. By applying these tips, you can craft dialogue that captures the essence of your characters and engages your readers on a deeper level. Remember, writing is a craft that improves with practice. Keep experimenting with your dialogue, and don't be afraid to rewrite until it sounds just right.
Writing dialogue is a skill that can be honed over time. The more you practice and read, the better you'll become at capturing the essence of conversation on the page.

MAYA’S MORPHICS FIELD CHALLENGE
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hello everyone :) School is starting, and that's a time when stress levels can peak for anyone in the manifesting community. It's tough to wake up to another school year without your dream life, and I know how draining it can be. You might feel like you have to focus on your journey while also tackling school, which is challenging enough on its own. I hope this can help with anything related to manifesting reality, the void state, shifting, lucid dreaming, school, and mindset. Remember, you're not alone in this journey, and it is inevitable you achieve all that you desire!
What are morphic fields
Morphic field audio refers to soundtracks that are designed to interact with the concept of morphic fields, which are theoretical fields that influence patterns and behaviors in nature. These audio tracks often incorporate elements like binaural beats or isochronic tones, which are sound frequencies intended to influence brainwave activity and promote specific mental states.
The idea is that by listening to these audio tracks, individuals you can tap into or resonate with morphic fields, potentially enhancing focus, relaxation, or other desired states. The concept is rooted in the belief that sound can influence the mind and body in ways that align with the patterns and connections proposed by morphic fields.
youtube
youtube
Subliminals or and affirmation tapes with morphic fields
When using morphic fields with subliminals, you can experiment with different approaches to see what works best for you.
Simultaneous Playback:
Play the morphic field audio and subliminal tracks at the same time.
Sequential Playback:
Before: Start with the morphic field audio to create a receptive mental state, then follow with the subliminal tracks. This can help prepare your mind to absorb the affirmations more effectively.
After:
Begin with the sublininal tracks to plant the affirmations in your subconscious, then play the morphic field audio to reinforce and integrate the messages.
Layering:
If you have audio editing software, you can layer the morphic field audio beneath the subliminal tracks, creating a single, cohesive audio experience. This method requires some technical skill but can be very effective.
Experiment and Adjust
Everyone's response to these techniques can vary like all methods so feel free to experiment with different methods and monitor how you feel. Adjust the timing, order, and volume to find the combination that resonates best with you :) it doesn’t have to be methodical at all
Specified Morphic Fields
You can also find specific morphic fields tailored to your desires, such as lucid dreaming, shifting realities, or entering the void state. These specialized audio tracks are designed to help you achieve particular goals by using specific frequencies and energies.
youtube

youtube
youtube
Similarly to binaural beats or isochronic tones Sounds, it’s best to listen to morphic fields in positive environments because they are highly receptive to surrounding influences. Ensure that your surroundings are calm and uplifting. This might include a tidy space, soft lighting, or calming scents like lavender or sage.
Stay away from negative influences like for example watching horror movies or engaging with negative shifting or void content while listening to morphic fields. Instead, pair your listening sessions with positive and inspiring content. This could include watching manifesting videos, glow-up transformation videos, or reading success stories related to shifting and lucid dreaming.
Combine this with affirming and persisting
the only three affirmations I use are:
I can shift
I will shift
I have shifted
This is very simple and effectively covers the past, present, and future, making it easy to repeat. The brain loves mantras, and these affirmations are designed to reinforce your belief in your ability to shift. This repetition helps to rewire your subconscious mind, aligning your thoughts and actions with your desired outcome. Keep it simple, stay consistent, and watch as your affirmations help manifest your shifting journey.
The challenge
Compile a playlist of subliminals or affirmation tapes, whichever you prefer.
Listen to them while playing morphic fields. You can use headphones or play them out loud; it doesn’t matter.
If you don’t want subliminals or affirmation tapes, find specific morphic fields for your desire, such as wealth morphic fields or shifting morphic fields.
They are easy to find on YouTube. Just search up your topic and then morphic field feel feee to use the ones I recommend as well!
4. Do this in a positive environment. Engage in activities like scrolling on Tumblr, reading success stories, or watching lucid dreaming tips.
5.Outside of this, use the three affirmations: "I can shift," "I will shift," "I have shifted."
You can replace these with anything related to lucid dreaming, the void state, or manifesting—whatever suits your goals, e.g: “I can wake up in the void,” “I will wake up in the void,” “I have woken up in the void before”
6.Make this routine fit your schedule.With school starting, you’ll be busy, so keep it simple and easy!

QUESTION TIME?
pairings: (platonic) lewis hamilton x f1 driver!reader.
warnings: sexist comments. interviewers asking rude questions.
summary: being the only female driver on the grid means being the unofficial spokesperson for women in motorsports and you’re tired of it.
author’s note: a part of my newest series! i’m still actively looking for more scenarios and ideas regarding this universe! so if u have any thoughts or questions? let me know! i’d love to hear them <3
Tumblr media
“do you worry that being more open and accessible to different drivers will lower the level of competition within formula one?”
the silence could be cut with a knife. everyone in the room looked at you expectantly, eyes wide as they waited for your answer. you took a sip of water as you collected your thoughts.
sometimes, when you were younger and karting, you’d wish that you had been born a boy. that might have been an unpopular opinion but you held it occasionally, although not for the reasons one might think. being a man would have meant that you would have been treated as just another driver rather than a novelty. no one else on the panel was expected to act like a mouthpiece for their entire gender.
taking a deep breath, you composed yourself before addressing the question. "i understand the concern about maintaining the high level of competition within formula one. however, i believe that diversity and inclusivity in motorsports can actually enhance the competition rather than detract from it."
you glanced around the room, meeting the expectant gazes of the reporters and fellow drivers. "by opening up opportunities to drivers from different backgrounds and experiences, we bring new perspectives and skills to the sport. this diversity can drive innovation and push the entire field to new heights."
pausing for a moment to gather your thoughts, you continued, "i don't necessarily think talent and competitiveness are determined by gender or any other factor. it's about skill, dedication, and passion for racing. embracing diversity not only reflects the world we live in but also strengthens formula one as a whole."
as you finished speaking, you could sense a shift in the atmosphere of the room. while your response might not have been what everyone expected, you knew it came from a place of honesty and conviction. and deep down, you hoped that your words would spark a broader conversation about the importance of inclusion in motorsports.
the room digests your response, slowly and steadily until another interviewer speaks up. "i get where you're coming from, but let's be real here. formula one is about pushing the limits, about being the best of the best. we can't afford to water down the competition just for the sake of diversity."
you respected his perspective, knowing that he always spoke his mind but god, if that wasn’t the worst way to word that. "i hear you," you replied, "but i don't see diversity as watering down the competition. if anything, it's about elevating it. different perspectives bring new challenges and force us to raise our own game. isn't that what racing is all about?"
he paused, considering your words. "i suppose you have a point," he conceded, nodding thoughtfully. "but we still need to ensure that the drivers who make it to formula one are truly the best, regardless of where they come from."
you nodded in agreement, acknowledging the importance of maintaining high standards in the sport. "absolutely," you agreed. "and i believe that by embracing diversity, we can do just that. it's not about lowering the bar; it's about expanding it to include drivers who might have otherwise been overlooked."
after a moment, lewis, who had been your unofficial mentor throughout the process of integrating into formula one, raises his hand. he had been listening to the whole exchange with a furrowed brow.
“i just want to echo what y/n has said,” he began. “diversity isn’t a threat, if anything it’s our greatest asset.”
he turned to address the room, his gaze steady. "we've seen time and time again how diversity helps drive innovation and pushes the sport forward. and it's not just about gender or race – it's about welcoming drivers from all walks of life and giving them the opportunity to shine."
lewis paused, letting his words sink in. "formula one should be a reflection of the world we live in – diverse, inclusive, and full of opportunity. and by embracing that diversity, we make the sport stronger, more competitive, and more exciting for fans around the globe."
you smile at that and grin at the interviewer.
“is that a good enough answer for you?” he nods and your remark sparks laughter in the room. after a moment, the interviewers target your peers and you take a deep breath. free at last.
when the interview concludes, you find yourself walking step by step with lewis, who smiles at you.
“you answered those questions well. i’m proud.”
“just followed the hamilton playbook.” you tease. “who knows? maybe i’ll be fighting you for that championship next.”
“i’d welcome the challenge.” lewis laughs, his eyes bright with amusement. “but seriously y/n, never underestimate the power of your voice and your presence in this sport. i always say that the goal is to leave the sport better than we found it, and you’re only in your second season and doing that. i have no doubt you’ll achieve great things.”
his voice is thick with sincerity and he places a warm hand on your shoulder before leaving. as he disappears, a young girl wearing your merch comes bounding up to you. she’s grinning wide with a missing tooth and when she speaks, her accent is thickly american with a strong lisp.
“y/n! hi!” she waves a massive poster in front of you. it has your name, your number and a message of support. “y/n you’re the coolest! will you sign my poster please?”
with a warm smile, you kneel down and grin at her.
“of course! i’d be honoured.” your assistant hands you a sharpie and you scrawl your signature in the corner of her poster. her parents taking a photo of the two of you and then with her parents permission, you sign her hat and her shirt. “thank you so much for all of your support. it means everything and more to me. keep cheering me on okay? i do this for all of you.”
“i will!” she beams. you laugh and pass your assistant her pen. “you’re my hero y/n! thank you!”
she bounces off and her parents wave while saying their thanks. your heart swelled up after that interaction, reminding you as to why you do this. why you deal with all those incessant annoying questions because it gives you the opportunity to help inspire the next generation of young racers.
as you stand there, you see a guy with a camera walking your way. your eyes widen as you make a sneaky escape. today has been filled with enough questions, you think as you hide out in gavin’s office.

Your Best Qualities - Current ⏳
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
From left to right. Breathe and choose.
Some of your best qualities in 5 bullet points! Decided we’d get a post to remind you of your best qualities, in case any of you guys are feelin’ down or going thru some tough weather. Let’s bring it back and focus on the good :)
To enhance accuracy before choosing: Clear your mind. Time is now patient and still. Close your eyes, inhale deeply, fill your chest up to the fullest, feel the soft air brush up against the ridges of your nose. Breathe out.
—————————
Pile 1. Feels like family…
• you’re definitely capable of bringing peace to others or keeping harmony within your own relationships, whether they be platonic or romantic — mediator skills or a person with good judgment
• you think twice before making moves or saying things — able to find balance between being the listener and being the speaker
• your resilience is unmatched!!!! — emotionally stable and can manage finances well
• loyal and uncaring of what others think — you stick to your crew and keep good people around you
• you’re super creative and your sense of timing is impeccable — you grab opportunities like it’s nothing. it’s like you always know what to say to make others feel good, reassured, comforted, confident
Points of Interest: good natured person or has good intentions in general; balanced af; leadership skills; a good head on your shoulders; extrovert-ambivert/very healthy introvert; entrepreneurial skills; ceo/vice president/secretary vibes; the type that listens to both sides of the story before acting; calm and peaceful; bounces back easily; thoughtful; considerate; family oriented; cares for others as well as oneself; clear minded; good work-life balance; open-minded; cautious in decision making; “confident” - justin bieber; good self esteem; good attitude; faith in your abilities; optimistic; creative; cares a lot for animals; people like being around you; possible mbti: healthy exxj, enxp, ixxj

• BIG, BIIIIIIG defender energy. when it comes to defending yourself or those you love, no one can do it better than you (have you ever considered being a lawyer btw?) — potential to be materially abundant and wealthy
• you empathize and feel for others easily, even when nobody else sees it or thinks that you do (but I’ll tell ya rn, most of the time you’re the most empathetic person in the room) — in a world full of evil, you’d make villains cry and can actually help them turn a new leaf — your level of empathy and understanding is on a totally different level
• independent and mature — if people come to anyone for advice or counseling, or just a good ear, it’s you
• you are very deep and insanely caring under the surface — you might approach things logically first and try to see things from all points of view before making a decision or advising other people — you really do have the biggest heart and only those who are close can see it

• mischievous and fun to be around/has the most jokes — always up for a challenge or touching grass activities lmfaooo you’re always down to hang out — you don’t care if you look like an idiot as long as you’re having fun or are out with friends/family
• you don’t give up easily and take opportunities as they come — persistent, stubborn and strong-willed — you’ve achieved many things or definitely will in no time

Yoongi Fic Recommendations Part 2
Tumblr media
a - angst f - fluff s - smut
part 1
Tumblr media
Series
Miss Dial (s) by @versigny ⊹₊⋆ [11:31] You: okay so i’m texting you now like I promised instead of drunktexting yoongi and telling him how badly i want his cock tonight. Arent you proud?
[11:32] unknown number: this is yoongi, hi 
Please Be Naked (a f s) (ft. namjoon) by @floralseokjin ⊹₊⋆ Recently heartbroken, it feels like you’ll never be able to get over it. But a chance encounter with a guy you haven’t seen in months changes everything…  
One Shots
want a taste? (f s) by @suga-kookiemonster ⊹₊⋆ pretzel pro. most skillful tongue in the food court world. allegedly. that’s what yoongi keeps telling you, anyway. of course, you’re reasonably skeptical of his claims—but if there’s one thing that motivates the notoriously-lethargic man, it’s proving skeptics wrong.
take care of you (f s) by @kookslastbutton ⊹₊⋆ To keep your fiance from burning out you suggest a weekend getaway to Gapyeong, a charming town about an hour outside Seoul. You've specifically asked him to leave his work equipment at home but like a deep rooted habit, he still brings it with him. You're left with no choice but to find a way to get his attention back.
You Broke Me (f) by @7ndipity ⊹₊⋆ Just clingy, fluffy Yoongi after Reader comes home after a month-long trip
Shy (s) by @7ndipity ⊹₊⋆ You’re desperately craving your boyfriend's attention, but are too shy to ask for it outright. Luckily, Yoongi knows what you want anyway.
Sweet Spot (s f) by @cultleaderyoongi ⊹₊⋆ Three months into dating, Yoongi ponders what the perfect scenario for a love confession would be. There's no manual stating when and where and how is appropriate. It's only convenient when his body reacts faster than his brain, doing the job for him.
Eargasm (s) by @lavishedinjimin ⊹₊⋆ The idea of having your first ever orgasm by talking to a hot, random stranger through your phone scares the living hell out of you, but maybe it won’t be as bad as you think.
F*ck Christmas (a f s) by @sailoryooons ⊹₊⋆ Making hating Christmas your entire personality was never the plan. Then again, it seems bad things only ever happen around Christmas - like discovering your fiancé cheating on you, forcing you to move back to your sleepy hometown. But Min Yoongi happens to love Christmas, and if there is one thing your very stubborn childhood crush is going to do, it’s try to reignite your Christmas spirit. Even if he has to force-feed it to you with gingerbread cookies and too-sweet eggnog.
Workaholic (s) by @hobiwonder ⊹₊⋆ Yoongi needs to relax and Hoseok has many tricks up his sleeve to make him. None of them Yoongi thought included hiring a hooker to pay him a visit one stormy night. You were only trying to escape a crazed man chasing you down on a stormy night. Never was your intention to end up in an attractive man’s house. Definitely not one who thought you were a hooker. 
Backtrack (s) (ft. jimin) by @mapofthesea ⊹₊⋆ There’s no telling just how long you'd been stuck in the windowless studio, and you’re just about ready to walk out and forfeit your paycheck for the week, until your bosses strike up an interesting bargain.
the pink pill (s) by @dollfaceksj ⊹₊⋆ In each of these universes, you find yourself consuming what is known as the pink pill. This pill is essentially a drug that enhances your libido to the max and you’ll quite literally never experience arousal like you do when you’ve taken this pill. Thankfully, in each universe, there’s a man that’s ready to help you explore and reach your peak of sexual euphoria.
all night (s) (ft. namjoon) by @axigailxo ⊹₊⋆ in which listening to music during a smoke sesh with your best friends namjoon and yoongi in the studio turns into much more
damn the charcuterie board. (s) (ft. jimin) by @bratkook

kindness plays a vital role in self-development for several reasons. first, it enhances mental well-being by reducing stress and anxiety, and increasing happiness and self-esteem. when you practice kindness, you foster positive relationships and build trust, which can lead to a stronger support network and a sense of belonging.
additionally, kindness encourages empathy and understanding, helping you to see things from others’ perspectives and resolve conflicts more effectively. this not only improves your social interactions but also contributes to personal growth by making you more compassionate and resilient.
building relationships
building relationships is a powerful self-development strategy because it opens doors to new experiences, perspectives, and opportunities for personal growth. interacting with different individuals challenges you to grow, learn, and expand your horizons. through new connections, you can discover hidden talents, passions, and strengths that you might not have been aware of before.
relationships also provide a support network that can offer encouragement, advice, and assistance during challenging times. having a strong network of friends, mentors, and colleagues can boost your confidence and resilience, helping you navigate life’s ups and downs more effectively.
furthermore, building relationships enhances your communication and interpersonal skills. engaging with others requires active listening, empathy, and the ability to express yourself clearly. these skills are invaluable in both personal and professional settings.

Thoroughly loved.” A/N: A day late, but posting Day 18! ao3 link here.
Tumblr media
Relentless waves of fire were rolling through your body. Satoru was pounding into you with a frightening speed, supporting you by your ass with your legs around him, your back pressed against the trunk of a tree. You bit back a moan, hopelessly trying to fight against the torrential rain of pure unadulterated ecstasy, but his next thrust had you seeing stars until you couldn’t hold back any longer.
“Senpai,” you gasped.
Satoru grunted, the grip he had on your hips tightening until you were sure his fingertips would leave bruises for you to find the next morning.
How.. How the fuck did you end up like this?!
It was supposed to be a straightforward mission, the kind where you would be in and out in record time without any complications, especially with the world’s strongest, Gojo Satoru by your side. 
The mission was to track down a Grade 1 curse wreaking havoc in a residential area a few hours from Tokyo, a weaker Grade 1 that you absolutely knew you could handle solo. There wasn’t much information available about this particular curse or the extent of its destruction other than abnormal reports of people being found dead, wrapped up in one another naked, but it was enough to warrant investigation.
You grumbled, ignoring Satoru’s rambling behind you, as you led the way through the woods, irate at why the higher ups insisted Gojo Satoru accompany you on this particular mission. As a Semi-Grade 1, you knew you were still in the phase of being evaluated by a Grade 1 sorcerer or higher, but… were there really no other sorcerers available other than Gojo Satoru?
Gojo Satoru had been a couple years your senior at Tokyo Jujutsu High School, and until the day he graduated, he teased you relentlessly, and when he wasn’t teasing you, he was dismissing you for being weak. The two years he wasn’t around until you graduated had been heaven. Until now. Until he was chosen to evaluate whether you passed the promotion. You huffed. Why couldn’t it be Nanami Kento senpai evaluating you instead?
Your blood boiled, his playful comments on how slow it took for you to attain Semi-Grade 1 status grating on your last nerve, at how he reached Grade 1 status years ago, while still attending Jujutsu High. You gritted your teeth, taking deep breaths to calm the fury bubbling up, in danger of exploding. Easy for him to say, he had the entirety of the formidable Gojo clan pushing for his ascension, though you were loath to admit that the heavens had blessed the man with the incomparable innate skill to be named, ‘the strongest’.
Clicking your tongue, you came to a stop in a small clearing in the middle of the dense thicket of trees. You listened, closing your eyes, taking in the sound of the branches rustling in the wind, the sound of birds chirping, the sound of animals padding through the woods. Other than what one would normally expect to hear in a wooded area, nothing. 
You frowned. The curse was last observed entering these woods. Even if it was lying dormant, your cursed energy enhanced hearing should be sensing something. 
“Need help?” Satoru snickered from behind you where he had been languidly following your lead. 
You felt yourself sigh. He was obviously being condescending. Knowing Satoru’s Six Eyes gift, it was likely he had already pinpointed the presence or the lack of presence of the curse, but this was your first mission as lead, and you needed the promotion to Grade 1. You needed to prove that you were strong enough to take over your family’s legacy as the first born child despite being a woman. You needed to prove that you weren’t weak.
“Not at all,” you retorted. 
Lifting your pointer and middle finger to your chest, you muttered, “Aural Expansion.” A ping only audible to you shot through the trees, the returning echoes mapping out what lay around you. 
Your eyes flew open. There. Thirty feet to your right. Lounging in a large tree.
You broke into a sprint. You heard Satoru protest from behind you, something about how you should communicate before running off on your own, but whatever. He was practically super human. He’d have no trouble keeping up.
You saw the tree from your echolocation up ahead. Smirking, you grasped the soundwaves of your and Satoru’s feet hitting the ground into your hands effectively muting the sound from reaching the curse’s ears. This was your ability, the ability to manipulate auditory vibrations. 
“Soundwave manipulation… shockwave.”
The soundwaves in your hand amplified, sending a pulse of energy into the tree where the curse was hiding. The tree exploded with a loud crack, shrapnel of wood violently flying in all directions. You grabbed the sound of the tree exploding, preventing the crack from resounding through the forest and into the surrounding residential region.
Waiting for the smoke to clear, you narrowed your eyes, flicking them right and left. Where was it? It had been a direct hit, but the force behind the sound of footsteps was only strong enough to incapacitate it. You needed the strength of the resulting explosion in order to exorcise it. 
Perking your ears, you took a deep breath, listening for a hint of its movements. 
“Eh? Is that Bulbasaur?” 
You whirled around, following the direction of Satoru’s blindfolded gaze to see… 
You cocked your head to one side. The curse was idly sitting in a patch of debris, twittering in what appeared to be bristling anger. The same disbelief in Satoru’s voice flickered across your face.
Because… the curse did look very much like Bulbasaur, or rather, a very grotesque form of Bulbasaur, if Bulbasaur had monstrous fangs and oozing boils and welts covering its surface. 
“Hmm… maybe not quite as cute as Bulbasaur.” Satoru turned to you. “So, you going to kill it or do I need to handle this for you?”
“I got it.”
You wanted to snap in frustration as Satoru shrugged in reply, shoving his hands in his pockets and slouching nonchalantly, but you chose to shift your focus onto the waves pulsing in your hands instead, preparing yourself to deliver the final, killing blow, when the curse suddenly jumped, shooting up into the air.
You froze. Did the first blast not injure it? Cursing to yourself, you snapped out of it, opening your mouth to utter your technique, when a soft yellow powder rained down on both you and Satoru, covering you in a fine layer of whatever it released. 
You coughed, trying to clear as much of it as you could from your airway. The powder had gotten up your nose and into your throat, coating everything in a dry layer as if you had just tried to swallow a spoonful of cinnamon. Choking on whatever it was, you prayed that the powder wasn’t anything poisonous or damaging, and barely gathering a breath, you choked out, “shockwave”, hurling the waves in your hands at the curse hanging in the air, watching as they barreled into its body and the curse exploded in a squelch of purple.
Thank god. 
You sank to your knees, gasping to catch your breath. It was only when the adrenaline subsided you could hear Satoru sputtering from behind you, also making futile attempts at expelling whatever this was from his own lungs.
That was strange. Satoru’s Limitless should have prevented the powder from reaching him at all. Did it have the ability to push through his barrier? You felt a giggle choking out of you. The great Gojo Satoru apparently wasn’t able to block everything.
“Not so–” cough “–invincible, are you–” cough “–senpai?” you wheezed, shaking at how ridiculous Satoru looked clutching at his chest, trying to suck in as much oxygen as you were at the moment. 
Turned out, he was just a man and not a god after all.
“Shut up–” cough “–all your fault.” Satoru – you assumed, it was difficult to tell with the blindfold – glared at you from where he was hunched over.
Your giggles turned into choked laughter, partially from the elation of not needing Gojo Satoru’s help on this mission and partially from the glee in watching him suffer.
But… 
Why was it suddenly so hot?!
A buzzing, tingling sensation rippled down your body starting from the top of your head, down to the very tip of your toes as an intense heat overtook you. 
Was this the effect of the curse’s powder?
You moved to stand, but the sensation of your thighs rubbing together sent a jolt of lightning hurtling through the apex between your legs.
What?
You unclenched your thighs, making another attempt to rise to your feet, but the sensation of skin against skin sent another jolt radiating through your lower belly. 
What was happening?
You glanced at your mission partner, who also seemed to be suffering from the same symptoms. He was groaning sensually, a soft flush spreading on his cheeks. 
“Senpai?”
Your voice came out sweetly, almost like a breathless moan, the complete opposite of what you intended. Satoru groaned pitifully as your voice reached him, writhing in what you presumed to be pain. You managed to pull yourself up onto shaky legs, stumbling over to the Special Grade sorcerer.
“Senpai, are you okay?”
You placed a hand on his shoulder, eliciting a drawn-out moan from him and startled at the intense heat radiating through you until you ached. All your senses buzzed for him. The enticing sounds of his groans, the intoxicating smell permeating off of him, the blistering heat of his body, the erotic flush on his face all overtaking you in an intense whirlwind until you throbbed. Throbbed with need for him.
Your eyes widened. The reports suddenly made sense. The yellow powder wasn’t a poison. It was a powerful aphrodisiac leading victims into carnal acts of pleasure, the curse killing them at their peak.
“Don’t… don’t touch me,” Satoru grunted. “This… all your… fault.”
He was barely holding himself together, his muscles rippling under his clothes, taut with restraint. He breathed heavily, the sound dizzying to your senses. You pathetically whined, your own desire bubbling under the surface, knees buckling at how intensely you shivered.
Gojo Satoru snapped when you brushed his side as you faltered beside him. He reached for you hastily, urgently crashing his lips onto yours, claiming them with a ravenous ferocity. You gasped, lips parting against him, and he took the opening to desperately taste you with his tongue, running them over your lips, intertwining it with yours.
He tasted divine. 
Somewhere in the murky depths of your mind, you knew that this was wrong. It was so very wrong. He was your evaluator. Your relationship was professional. You absolutely detested him. But the thought was lost in the muddled haze of your desire, the only prominent thought reigning in your mind in this present moment being one of how much you wanted him.
You pawed at him shamelessly, the feel of his taut muscles and his hungry, demanding lips stoking the fire burning within you into a blazing inferno.
“Can’t… can’t hold back,” he mumbled, his own hands roaming your body, along your back, your ass, your breasts.
You took in a shuddering breath, knowing you might regret how you answer tomorrow. “D-don’t.”
It was almost as if something in Gojo Satoru broke when you whimpered for him not to stop. He practically ripped off his pants and yours in his frenzied haste to remove everything that stood in the way of his cock and you.
“Gojo… senpai…”
“Say– say my name.”
“Satoru…”
With a guttural growl, Satoru hiked you up around his waist, his lips still locked onto yours, stumbling until your back hit the trunk of a tree behind you, your legs wrapping around his waist. A thready moan escaped you, the impact sending vibrations roiling through your hot, bothered body. Satoru keened at the sultry sound of your voice, pressing you even harder against the rough bark.
He entered you sharply, your arousal pooling so thickly, he buried himself to the hilt quickly without resistance. Satoru broke the kiss, burying his head in the crook of your neck, panting.
“God, you feel amazing.”
His strangled exhaled breaths burned where they landed on your skin. You were squirming, trembling, writhing, the deliciously full sensation of him bringing you to your metaphorical knees. There was no foreplay, no buildup. Satoru was splitting you open, bouncing you on his cock, his frenzied speed only getting faster every time he felt you clench.
It was pure animalistic pandemonium. 
Satoru found his way back to your lips, seeking them out with a frenetic desperation as if he’d never experience something so sweet again. “Wouldn’t have… happened… if I killed it… first…” he grunted, pressing his lips to yours over and over again, hot, heavy breaths intermingling with your own heady gasps of pleasure. 
God, how was it that even deep in the throes of passion, he could make your blood pressure rise dramatically?
“Shut.. up…”
You arched your back, moaning his name, trembling from the overwhelming build of fire scorching you from the inside out. Satoru was pounding into you at an inhuman speed, driving deeper into you as if he were trying to meld your bodies into one, the friction of him dragging along you driving you to the edge of unraveling. 
Gojo Satoru was fucking you, and you were loving it.
“Senpai…” His grip on you tightened, his fingertips digging into your flesh with a bruising force. “Satoru…”
You were on the edge, so close, so very close.
“Almost… hah…” Satoru breathed.
Your eyes fluttered closed, and throwing your head back, you made the lewdest, most indecent yowl you’d ever made in your life, clamping down on his cock with a force you yourself had never experienced before.
Satoru slammed into you forcefully, filling your vision with white hot stars, the painfully delicious sensation sending you both careening off the edge and he was filling you with flood after flood of his release while you convulsed uncontrollably in his arms.
Your heartbeat was pounding in your ears. It was only after the adrenaline ebbed away, as the fog of blinding lust cleared and clarity returned, the effects of the powder seemingly having abated, that you realized the ridiculous vision the two of you must make, half-naked, flushed, tops and blindfold askew, his climax and your slick sliding down your thighs, creamed around his base – in a public space no less. Feeling him soften still buried deep inside you, you blushed furiously and swatted at his arms, silently demanding he release you.
Satoru did the opposite, pulling you even more flush against his heaving body, a smug smirk dancing on his arrogant, swollen lips, a wicked gleam in his impossibly clear blue eyes. 
You struggled against his hold, but he held fast, his physical strength far above yours, leaving you thrashing in vain. You huffed, your blush deepening, refusing to meet his incessant gaze, more to spare yourself from the embarrassment of what just happened.
“You know…”
“Don’t, just… please don’t.” You all, but begged. Knowing Gojo Satoru, the next words out of his mouth were guaranteed to be aggravatingly humiliating. 
“You look good like that. Thoroughly loved.” 
You groaned, sure that your face was no doubt a deep reddish purple. “Shut up,” and with a pout, you insisted, “This never happened.”
Satoru hummed, but finally released you, gently pulling out and setting you on your feet. You beelined towards your discarded pants, trying to ignore the squelch of white running down your leg. Shakily dressing yourself, you watched as Satoru also righted himself out of the corner of your eye. 
You wanted nothing more than to go home, to your quiet, safe, apartment where you could take a scalding hot shower to remove any and all traces of that damn curse and Gojo Satoru off of your body, where you could bury yourself under your blanket and utter muffled profanities into your pillow, where you could die and wallow in embarrassment.
But, being a few hours from Tokyo and with how dark it had gotten, it was likely you’d have to find a place to stay for the night before you could return to your comforting bed the next morning.
You twisted your fingers together, searching for something, anything to say to break the awkward silent tension hanging in the air. 
“So… did I pass the evaluation?”
You grimaced as the words left your mouth.
Really? That’s what you decided to say? After what just happened?
You heard Satoru snicker.
“After that, definitely.”
You rolled your eyes. Of course… of course he’d say something so exasperatingly inappropriate. You sometimes wondered why you even bothered expecting anything different.
“Gojo Satoru, you are a menace,” you muttered to yourself under your breath, but kicked yourself when Satoru chuckled, indicating that he had heard you.
“Come on, I’m starving.” Satoru walked off, but he suddenly stopped, turning halfway back towards you, fixing one of his gorgeous blue eyes on you, twinkling with something you couldn’t quite name before snapping the blindfold in place.
The electric zing running through you unsettled you.
Could it be that the powder’s effect hadn’t completely worn off? 
That had to be the only rational explanation for what you just felt. The other possibility, the possibility that you might not actually dislike Gojo Satoru didn’t make any sense.
Groaning, you ran to catch up to Satoru’s receding form, ardently hoping there was an inn in town with more than just one vacant room.
It was going to be a long night, you just knew it.

Your Next Glow Up | Pick A Pile
Hello and welcome to this Pick A Pile! In here you'll find out how your next glow up will go. I hope you guys enjoy and find this useful. Do make sure to leave comments down below on your experience! I do want to remind you all that this is a General Pick A Pile which means this is for a lot of people: therefore keep what resonates and leave what doesn't.
Masterpost > Questions > Paid Readings
Pick A Pile!
Tumblr media
Pile 1:
Your glow up will come from simply growing up. This may be because you’re getting into puberty, you’re ending puberty. Maybe your face shape will change, your nose shape etc. It’s time that makes you glow up, it’s time that makes your body change.
You’ll be aware of this change, you’ll know this change will happen; this might be because you manifested it or are/were listening to subliminals. You’ll be contained with this change, you’ll be happy with this change, but your personality won’t change because of it. If you’re overall insecure it won’t change that, if you’re already confident it won’t change either, it’s only your appearance that will be different after this glow up, and it will simply be because you’re growing up.
Pile 2:
Your next glow up will be triggered by accepting what your body needs. You’ll find out how sleep improves your sense of awareness and amount of energy. You’ll get your body relaxed, your mind relaxed, and it will show off in your appearance and personality.
Some things might hold you back at the beginning, like an immense amount of thoughts, not being able to have an empty mind, not being able to relax even if you don’t do much. You’ll find out what relax your mind, what relaxes your body, and give it the rest it needs.
You won’t have trouble with sleeping anymore, you’ll be able to get through difficult situations easier because it’s easier for you to think clearly, it’s easier to think of solutions or correct conclusions. You’ll give your body what it needs, you’ll give your mind what it needs, and it will be clear to everyone and everything this was a glow up for you.
Pile 3:
Your next glow up will enhance your social skills. You’ll start talking to people more, find more joy in your life and start talking to way more people. Your glow up will come from enjoying yourself and broadening your horizons when it comes to information and experiences. You’ll experience a shift in your way of thinking and enjoying things, you’ll learn about yourself, who you are and who you want to become.
You’ll learn how to leave things behind in such way it doesn’t negatively affect you. You’ll learn how to accept things easier, find understanding in situations. Your next glow up will give you a new sense of self, your glow up will come from inside, having new confidence to show on the outside.

20 Unspoken Rules for Men:
1. Never shake a hand sitting down.
Standing up shows respect and engagement. It signifies that you value the person you are meeting and are fully present in the interaction.
2. Protect who is behind you, and respect who is beside you.
This emphasizes loyalty and honor. Protecting those behind you means safeguarding your family, friends, and teammates. Respecting those beside you signifies recognizing the equality and value of your peers.
3. Never insult the cooking when you are the guest.
Showing gratitude and respect for hospitality is essential. Criticizing the cooking is disrespectful and ungrateful, especially when someone has gone out of their way to host you.
4. Never eat the last piece of something you didn't buy.
This rule underscores courtesy and consideration for others. It demonstrates awareness and respect for shared resources and the contributions of others.
5. Never make the first offer in a negotiation.
Letting the other party make the first offer can provide strategic advantages. It gives you insight into their expectations and can help you negotiate better terms.
6. Don't take credit for work you didn't do.
Integrity in acknowledging others' efforts is crucial. Taking undue credit undermines trust and damages your credibility.
7. Take the blame, and give credit when due.
Owning up to mistakes and recognizing others' contributions builds respect and trust. It shows maturity and leadership.

Prioritizing face-to-face interactions over digital distractions shows respect and attentiveness to those present.
16. Never pose with alcohol.
Maintaining a responsible image is important. Posing with alcohol can convey unprofessionalism or recklessness.
17. Proper grammar will get you far in life. Leave the foul language for the less educated.

Auralism
✨️Kink Education with Elizabeth✨️
Does this tiktok do something to you?
If you listen to his voice and suddenly feel true sexual arousal, you may have a form of Auralism. Auralism is the sexual arousal to sound. It could be voices, music, an ASMR trigger, etc. The most common in females is arousal from voices, and that's what I will be working with today. So, whoever your dream man saying "Hello Feyre Darling," is, I need you to think about him as you are reading this.
Auralism is a way of practicing what sex experts call "mindful sensuality" or the practice of using certain skills to enhance emotional and mental erotica. This typically involves using more senses than just touch and vision. Auralism focuses on specifically the sound aspect and a bit of imagination.

Being High Lady of the Night Court held several responsibilities, but your least favorite was, and would always be, the Court of Nightmares. 
Rhys kissed you one more time as the doors to the throne room sat closed. “We'll finish what we started later, I promise. I will not leave you unsatisfied for long.”
Gods, that timber. The purr. You felt his voice setting heat through your body and did the best to push the feeling away. 
Rhys held the wine glass to your lips, watching you drink it as his hand ran the length of your inner thigh. His gaze went back to Keir, his eyes almost narrowing. “The High lady looks beautiful tonight, nephew.” 
You felt the predatory shift in Rhys, felt the mating bond grow tight. “My mate is always delicious, uncle. You'd be smart to remove your eyes from her.” His voice went straight to your cunt this time, a wave of heat landing there. Oh really? His high lord voice always turned you on, the command of it, the strict tone. 
Keir nodded, walking away, just as your thighs pushed together. His lips brushed your ear, that deep voice hitting you again. “I see I may have left you too desperate, my star.” His hand trailed the valley of your breasts, settling on your lower stomach. “I do wonder if I can get you off just from speaking. Is that possible, darling? To have you come on my lap with such little effort?”
You whimpered again. Head falling into his shoulder. Each letter off his tongue was dipped in honey, sending wave after wave of arousal through you. You kept your thighs together now, knowing in this dress spreading them would put your glistening core on display. 
As if he sensed your feelings, he pushed them apart slightly, a growl escaping him and his eyes growing dark as he looked. “Cauldron boil me, you will cum from this, won't you? Have you gotten too good at playing the role of my whore, y/n darling? Should I fuck on you on this throne and let everyone watch?”
“Rhys,” it was meant to be a warning to stop, but it came out as a soft moan. 
“You'll be saying my name over and over later, begging me to keep going as I fuck you so hard our bed breaks. You always feel so good, wrapped tight around my cock.”
Your core clenched, the coil starting to slowly build. “-and look at you now,” he continued. “Wearing an expensive dress, dripping onto my thigh. When this damned party is over, I will bend you over this throne.”
You moaned his name again. That purr was doing something to you that you've never had happen. “I bet if I spread your legs further, Azriel would be able to see how wet you are from his spot at the back of the room. Cassian can probably smell and taste you.” 
The general had a small smirk on his face as he kept his spot behind Rhysand and the throne. Azriel had his eyes locked in you two, a single brow kissing his hairline. 
“I might let them stay and watch if you wanted. Let them watch me claim you over and over until you're soaking me. Once I'm done with you, maybe I'll let them play too."
“Rhys-” You were so close, snuggling further into his lap, thighs pressed back together and rubbing. 
“Uh-uh,” his hand pushed them apart enough for his pleasure again. “Your High Lord wants to see how desperate his whore is. Gods, look at you. Look at you clenching at nothing, about to cum from my voice alone.”
His name left your throat in a quiet needing moan and Cassian looked down with a full smirk now. A voice cold as death came from the other side of him. A voice Rhys knew you found attractive. “Release my High Lady from her misery.”
“Cum for me,” Rhysand whispered into your ear, kissing the shell of it gently. “Cum for us.”
The coil snapped, your back arching against his chest as Cassian placed a hand over your mouth. “And now look at you, coming with no effort on my part, forcing our general to have to cover your mouth so I don't have to kill everyone here to getting to listen to the noises that are for me and me alone. Pathetic little thing, aren't you?"
Rhys switched to his High Lord voice again. “Cassian, take the High Lady somewhere to clean her up.” 
Cassian nodded, picking you up from Rhysand's lap as your high ended. “Come, my lady, let me take care of you.”
