#i have 20 g3s

[horse-infamous]

It's just occurred to me that I have yet to showcase my full collection here

[puddleofpins]

people who misgender g3 Frankie while “critiquing” g3 designs and then ignore everyone correcting you in your comments, I’m swinging at you with my sword.

A popular media franchise makes a they/them-using nonbinary protag and it’s actually canon and they still can’t get any respect.

I somehow picked both the best and worst time to get into monster high huh

🖥️ 🧸 a new (old) approach for 21st-century kids using computers… chronological order

as our kiddo gets older we are going on a journey with her, focusing on the evolution of computing from where it started, and using each one, in order.

our adventure begins with retrofitting a 1998 littletikes/ibm playset to house the early computers, providing her with a tangible way to interact with these machines. might need to do emulators for some of these, but trying to see if we can get many of these, build/re-build, or borrow -

some of the plans will be to explore the hardware - on how it all worked before computing moved to sealed black rectangles that's mostly used to buy things or pay subscriptions services.

here's the "playlist" so far - have any suggestions?

altair 8800 (1975) apple i (1976) commodore pet (1977) apple ii (1977) atari 400/800 (1979)

commodore vic-20 (1980) ibm pc (1981) commodore 64 (1982) apple macintosh (1984) amiga 500 (1987)

next computer (1990) sun sparcstation 10 (1992) compaq presario 425 (1993) sony vaio pcv (1996) apple imac g3 (1998) dell dimension xps t500 (1999)

this approach also seems like it could be a kid's book - a book for parents to follow along with their kids on the history of computers with how-tos on building, or emulating them. maybe even a "build-a-bear" - style workshops / classes for kids and parents, but for making their first computers together…

more later!

🕹️ this was inspired by andy baio's approach of guiding his son through the chronological history of video games (2014)

I'm reading posts that talk about a rewrite of G3 to make it look like G1? Honestly... Why? Let the newcomers have fun with G3. Let children and adolescents feel identified with characters that adapt to new generations.

Instead: why don't they demand a continuation of G1? What do I care about the life of a teenager between 14 and 17 years old? GIVE ME EXISTENTIAL CRISIS OF YOUNG ADULTS BETWEEN 20 AND 30!!!!

Give me a Deuce who feels stuck because he doesn't know what to do with his life!!! Give me a Gil who is looking to move out of his parents' house because he can't stand them anymore!! GIVE ME FRANKIE GOING INTO CRISIS BECAUSE SHE KNOWS HOW TO BE AN ADULT!! IT COST HORRORS FOR HER TO BE A TEENAGER, BEING A FUNCTIONAL ADULT IS KILLING HER!!!

Show how Clawdeen strives to be a dressmaker! What the world of modeling is like!! IT'S NOT AS EASY AS IT LOOKED WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER! Show how Jackson and Holt try to balance their lives so that each one fulfills what they dream of! Show how you organize yourself so that Holt has rehearsals and goes to concerts!! While Jackson manages his college study schedule!! Show Cleo struggling to grow up. This girl was a princess from ancient Egypt and probably had a pre-written life. Now that is not possible. She is grateful but horrified in equal parts because she no longer knows how to continue. Damn, show Toralei trying to achieve a better future but with a background that complicates her life!! OH MY GOD!!! SHE WAS IN A JUVENILE PRISON!!! THAT FILE IS BITTING HIS BUTT IN THE WORST WAY!!

I want characters I can identify with too. But I am no longer a child or teenager, I am an adult. I want adult characters that I can empathize with, identify with, and want to hug because I know how hard it is to try to be a functional adult.

Please leave G3 alone and give me a big sequel to G1.

HI I WANNA HEAR ABOUT MONSTER HIGH JEWISH HEADCONNANS PLSSSSS

HIIII I finally have a chance to respond to this

Keep in mind this is gonna be loosely based on g3 canon but also it’s kind of just based on me customizing/playing with my dolls and deciding what their vibes are, so I’m probably gonna contradict canon a lot lol

I like to imagine there’s a synagogue nearby monster high that has like a ~20% monster population since the school opened up. The rabbi is very enthusiastic about including them, he really enjoys all of the new questions about scripture that they raise. When one of the people at his synagogue came to him to tell him that he had constructed a Golem, the rabbi was thrilled. He was not expecting a flesh golem, but beggars can’t be choosers.

So Clawdeen and her siblings are Jewish on their mom’s side. Holiday dinners are huge and chaotic events, and siblings usually end up fighting over the lamb bones on Passover. When Clawdeen brought Draculaura home to meet her parents, her mom made a joke about blood libel that had to be explained to Draculaura.

Frankie’s only parent is their dad who constructed them, and he’s Jewish. After an ongoing debate about when Frankie should have their b’nei mitzvah, since they started school after being constructed only a few weeks prior, the rabbi threw his hands up in the air and said it was past time since clearly they were at least 13 in terms of maturity, so Frankie got b’nei mitzvah’d on what was technically their 1st birthday. Their friends wore their monster ball outfits to the party afterwards >:3

Frankie’s dad is very supportive of their nonbinary identity, and when Frankie said they were nervous about introducing him to their girlfriend, he told them that they had nothing to worry about. If she made Frankie happy, he would absolutely support the relationship. He was not expecting his child to bring home the pharaoh’s daughter to the Passover Seder. It was awkward, to say the least. After several meetings with the rabbi and a lot of family drama, Frankie’s family came to the conclusion that Cleo was welcome in their home. After that she started coming to holiday dinners often, and Frankie’s dad came to understand that her father was not treating her well. This solidified Cleo’s place in his home- how could a Jew turn away someone who was wronged by the Pharaoh? Cleo and Frankie stayed together through high school, eventually getting married. Cleo converted as soon as she moved out of her father’s house.

Hero Vision Vol.14 (2004/Spring) ft. Kamen Rider Blade Cast Interviews Ryoji Moromoto x Makoto Ito (Suit Actor) Segment (translation below)

Publication: May 20, 2004 (between episodes 17-18) Ryoji Moromoto (Hajime Aikawa) x Makoto Ito (Chalice Suit Actor)

"When did you two first meet?"

Ito: When? (laughs)

Moromoto: When we first met? I'm pretty sure it was before filming started. My first impression of Ito-san was that he was, "A kind big bro."

Ito: He made me think, "This year's also going to turn out cool" (laughs).

Moromoto: We talked alot about Chalice back then. You said, "Chalice has existed for 10,000 years, so I want to show you 10,000 years worth of my career." What were some of the other things you said again?

Ito:……not much, I really don't remember (laughs).

Moromoto: Ahaha! One thing we have in common, is that we have similar bikes, don't we? We've talked about how we want to go (motorcycle) touring together after the show ends. I ride a Yamaha SR400 and, ah...I'm sorry……(Note: The bikes used in Kamen Rider are provided by Honda)

Ito:…Sorry, but I'm also a WR250F (Yamaha) rider~, but before that, it's always been a Honda! I'd love to see Moromoto-kun's rumored SR. I've heard that they're loud and rather slow……

Moromoto: That's right! I actually modified it too much, and now it can only go about 80kph (50mph) (laughs). Right now, I'm too busy to work on it. I feel like my love for it is fading~!

"What were your first impressions of Chalice?"

Moromoto: I received a call from my agency, saying I passed the audition with, "You're Heart." "Eh?! You mean Momorenger?!," I was so surprised and alittle bit intimidated (laughs), but when I saw the design in person, it was cool and I liked it alot because it was something I had never seen before.

Ito: When I was first told about it, I jokingly thought, "Heart……(sinking in)…ah, alright then, I'll just act like a gay guy……" But, after seeing the design, I was relieved and thought about what kind of pose would suit this Rider. My first thought when I read his setup, was that it would be nice to have something wild and different from the other Riders. Compared to G3-X in "Kamen Rider Agito" and Knight in "Kamen Rider Ryuki," this is the wildest work I've ever done. Even with Kaixa in "Kamen Rider 555," I tried to keep martial arts like movements in mind, and to avoid any unnecessary movements. But with Chalice, there's just so many unnecessary movements…(laughs).

Moromoto: That's why I also tried to make the movements bigger in that fight scene (episode 9).

"Morimoto-san, "Hajime Aikawa is not a normal human being," what do you pay attention to when playing such a role?"

Moromoto: When my heart is closer to the human side, it's not so different, but when it's closer to Chalice's side, I try not to blink as much as possible, and when I talk to people, I try to give subtle pauses in my responses. It's almost like a foreigner hearing Japanese and interpreting it in their head before replying. In general, when I'm on Chalice's side, I don't think with my mind, but instead, try to act with my feelings

"Do you have any techniques for the dubbing process?"

Moromoto: I have a high pitched voice, so it can be difficult for me to make Chalice sound intimidating or violent. That's why I'm trying to lower the tone of my voice. I also did research by studying "monsters" such as the Hulk, Akuma from "Street Fighter II" and King Piccolo from "Dragon Ball Z." One time I even played the videos, and would try to voice the characters myself with the sound off, but there was still something wrong. What could it be…I don't know what Chalice's true form is yet, so my image may not be perfect. (Note: The actors have not been told where the story is going at this time.)

Ito: When it's my turn to "Henshin!," I'm trying to decide if it's better to change or to fight and further develop myself. Essentially, Chalice is supposed to be used to fighting, so I want to keep my methods in check. I'm so focused that I feel like I can see my opponent's movements, even when they've stopped. However, the tension is still high.

Moromoto: The way I say "Transformation" is different depending on if I'm fighting to protect Amane-chan or with my natural emotions. For Amane-chan, it's, "Henshin!" but naturally it's, "��Henshin" (lower tone).

"Did you face any challenges during filming?"

Ito: I'm not good when it comes to cold weather, so I almost cried during the snowy mountain shoot.

Moromoto: It was -15C (5F)! And when the sun went down, they brought out one of those giant fans! It kept spraying us with cold water! Man, I remember my face being scrunched up with anger (laughs).

Ito: When I did a test shot without the mask on, my hair ended up freezing. It wouldn't even melt when I put my head over the space heater, so I just had to keep it as is.

Moromoto: There was also the scene where Amane-chan's father gives Hajime the photo, with it being so cold I thought, "This guy, is he really going to die?!"

Ito: I'm bad with Winter, but I'm also bad with Summer too. When I wear a suit, my body temperature rises and my face turns bright red. My heart starts to race too and I think, "Ah, my life is getting shorter…"

Moromoto: It's good for Chalice though, isn't it? Blood rushing, a fast pulse, it's like an unleashing of the instincts.

Ito: But, when I get like that, I become quiet. In the Summer, Chalice becomes more like a domesticated cat (laughs).

Moromoto: Please keep doing your best~, I'm also prepared to risk my life for this role!

Ito: I also want to play the role of a Rider who will continue to remain in everyone's heart. Personally, it's frustrating to often hear people say, "Chalice looks like Gills (Agito)" (laughs), regardless, please continue to watch us in the future. We're going to give it our all!

G3 Hissfits Review Part 1

Guess what came in today??? My Hissfits three pack!

The box is large, 22”x12” and was 75 bucks…which is a lot (25 for each doll) and Entertainment Earth wanted another 20 for shipping (so I might have preordered a cute little 3.75” Clone Trooper Rex figure to get free shipping).

These dolls had their stock photos dropped a bit over a year ago and I guess were just sitting in a warehouse while Mattel figured out what to do with them????? I dunno why they took so long to come out, but I’m glad they were not all canceled and disposed of.

It has some little Skullettes detailed around the outside of the box.

Here is the corner illustration done by Darko.

The back of the box. That’s a huge illustration and looks really cool. It has some of their accessories hidden about and Amped Up Frankie’s accessories in the far left-hand book shelf. Perhaps they’re all playing for the Monster Ball?

Here is the UPC for anyone who needs it. These are supposed to be available on misc. sellers/shops: like Entertainment Earth and Big Lots and NOT Amazon, Walmart, Target or even Mattel Creations. Which seems like an odd choice (I wonder what their reasoning was behind it?).

Here is a close up of their blurb on the back of the box. I do find it funny that Toralei was known to be REALLY bad at singing in G1 and G3 just RAN the other way with that.

Here are the ghoul’s with the plastic removed. There was A TON of rubber bands holding them all in. They look good in the package, but there is so much plastic waste.

more under the cut

Close-up of G3 Meowlody’s face while still strapped down. Meowlody has white hair (I remember who is who by: turning her name’s first letter “m” upside down and it looks like a “w” for “white hair”).

Mine has her eyes slightly printed up too high, some white paint dropped across her right eye, and her left cheek stripes have some paint missing (you can’t tell from his photo).

She has the biggest grin out of the werecat twins and Toralei. Her heterochromia is opposite of her twin and she has purple leopard print eyeshadow. Her hair feels like saran.

My Toralei looks pretty good, but has a small lip smudge on her upper lip. I love her eyeshadow!!! Even her bright pink lips have grown on me. Her leopard rosettes are a mix of purple (Meowlody) and pink (Purrsephone).

She has almost-neon orange hair (with black, baby pink, and purple streaks). I’m pretty sure it is all saran.

And my FAVORITE, Purrsephone (turn her name’s first letter “p” upside down and it looks like a “b” for “black hair” and that’s how I remember this is Purrsephone). I like her sculpted eyelids, her full upper lips, her hair color blend *mwah!* Mine does have a spot of red paint on the bottom of her cat nose. She has pink leopard spots on the opposite side of her face as her sister.

I’m also certain she has saran hair.

They come with a ton of little accessories “to help them get ready for the show.” Even merch to sell after the show too!!

After spending about 30 minutes freeing everything from their prison and running a metal comb through their hair (they will need to be washed with water, Dawn dish soap, and some conditioner…maybe (carefully) straight iron their hair later).

I forgot to take a full body photo of Toralei before I started removing pieces. Whoops!

Here is her crown piece. It wraps around both ears and should still hold its place fairly well even after I removed the plastic stays and rubberband (it was really wrapped around it) holding it in.

Here she is without her golden crown. I might like it better off.

Her eye make-up is her two cousins’ mixed together. Oh, by the way G3 Purrsephone and Meowlody are G3 Toralei’s cousins, not just her beasties.

The leopard print reminds me of SDCC DC Super Hero Girl’s Cheetah.

Her tail tambourine (I love how clever they were in its paw-like design) also stays on her tail pretty well.

Here are her plastic dress pieces. They have some nice details to them (lots of studs, chains, and the Hissfits cat head logo) and as always, could look even more elevated with some paint. Be warned that the gold chest piece instantly wants to keep detaching itself from the skirt and shoulder pieces after you remove the rubber bands.

I LOVE her gloves (look at the little printed seams and how they make it look like there are seperate holes for her fingers). My Core G3 Toralei will be stealing them. Mine even come off by sliding over the hands (you do not necessarily need to remove the whole hand to get them off).

Here are her MASSIVE boots. They are slit all the way down the back and have some colored in details. I’m not sure if I like purple AND pink AND red being Toralei’s new colors, but these shoes look great.

Here are the bottoms (chains on the ball of the feet and a cat scratching post making the heel).

A better look at her saran hair blend. It’s really growing on me. I was just going to clean her up, steal her stock and resell the base doll. But I am heavily rethinking it.

Here she is in her outfit sans all the plastic bits. It is all attached. The main shirt/shorts have a sparkly foil look to them and her skirt has a lovely gold to magenta foil print.

And the back. Now let’s jump ahead to look at some differences between the werecat’s bodies.

Toralei has the exact same body mold as G3 Clawdeen, and the werecat twins have the same body as G3 Cleo (sans the bandages).

They didn’t give the werecat twins sharp toe claws like Toralei and Clawdeen. :( Booo!

Their ears look a bit different too (Toralei has notches in the bottom of her ears and Purrsephone/Meowlody don’t).

And for funsies. Here are all the G3 werecats’ body types for comparison (I’m still in the middle of micro-braiding my Catty’s hair, so ignore her bad hair day).

In part 2 I’ll delve more into the werecat twins.

[heckyeahponyscans]

In 2001 Mitchell Goldman applied for a copyright on the phrase "Cotton Candy Cloud Castle" for a line of"dolls, dollhouses, and other toys".

Hasbro immediately filed a lawsuit against him because, EXCUSE ME??? didn't Mitchell Goldman know that one of Hasbro's hundreds of MLPs from nearly 20 years ago was named Cotton Candy???

Unfortunately for Hasbro the judge was unconvinced and dismissed the lawsuit, although I can't find any evidence of the Cotton Candy Cloud Castle dolls or whatever ever actually coming out.

But anyway, Hasbro takes its copyrights seriously.

This is also why a lot of G3 and G4 toys have doofy or weird names (Pinkie Pie, Silly Sunshine, Mrs. Dazzle Cake), because no other company is gong to use them coincidentally. So if someone DOES copy the name "Pinkie Pie" Hasbro has a stronger case against them.

With G5 they gave the ponies last names, so Sunny's full copyright name is Sunny Starscout but she can just be called "Sunny" in media. Which is a good compromise imo.

[sammyjs-ponies]

Have you heard of the new show Wild Manes? What's your opinion about it?

I have been watching it!

I find it very pleasant and I enjoy it. In fact, the show feels like it would fit perfectly alongside shows from the 2003-2008 era, like Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears, Horseland, and of course G3 MLP.

And I for one, love that. It's nostalgic even though it's brand new, and I've been wishing so hard to see shows appear that make that happen. It's like that feeling we all wish we could have again of watching our favorite childhood shows for the first time.

I've been sitting with the popcorn watching the mixed reactions from Bronies. The consensus is that G5 is a total flop and we're all craving something better to fill the void. I've seen about 75% of videos hyping it up "Will this be the NEW MLP???" and the rest calling it "Bootleg Ripoff" and at worst just hating on it for all the same reasons they blasted G3.

Wild Manes is a comfort show. Not something action-packed and profound with deep lore like G4 was, and it shouldn't be compared as such. These other shows I mentioned above have an audience of an entirely different set of people that Bronies often refuse to accept exist.

We do also love profound shows like G4, but the kinds of people who exclusively like G4-type shows have a hard time accepting different genres if they're not exactly the same... and tend to shame the people who have different tastes as if everything else is objectively "bad".

Imagine a person who refuses to eat anything but chicken tenders getting on a high horse and insulting a foodie for enjoying more foods than just chicken tenders.

As for my review of the show so far:

They're doing VERY well with storytelling for being limited to a 5-minute runtime, and if they ever get the chance to do more, I think they have great potential to have amazing stories. The "You're probably wondering how we ended up here" gimmick at the beginning of each episode, which is jarring to some people, would be way more enjoyable with a full 20-minute episode. In fact, it's VERY refreshing to see a cartoon doing something different for once.

As I said, I love how the show makes me feel. The art style is great. The background art is great. There's no villains or monsters or world-ending scenarios at stake, which is again, refreshing.

(Another thing Bronies tend to not realize is some people just don't want to watch characters fighting 24-7. High-stakes episodes are enjoyable once in a while, but how can it be special if that's how things just are all the time? I don't know about anyone else, but big battles to save the world are a lot more meaningful to me when we've spent some time living happily in that world to sympathize and understand why it's worth defending.)

And sometimes, I just want to watch cute characters have fun and live life, where the worst of the problems is a minor disagreement with your friend that gets worked out in the end. A world I can wish I lived in.

My only biggest complaint so far is that I wish the hair moved. You'd think with such a focus on hair, they'd have some real physics in the animation.

But again, they're just starting out. Surely things will improve if it takes off.

[brxkxnhxxrtsclxb]

i kinda hate that mattel gave draculaura the split dye hair in G3 and only a few of her dolls have it ._. (core, creepover, day out, SS1, fangtastic road trip, core refresh, SS5)

she has over 20 dolls and only 7 have the split dye

i hope sweet scary birthday has it >.< even if it just means swapping the pink and black placements. i’d love to see more split dye drac. SS1 (and fangtastic road trip) split dye is my fave. it’s a unique way of showing it on her ^_^

and SS5 is a new take on it cuz it’s not her usual black and pink combo :3

[dapper-lil-arts]

Thoughts on rarijackdash, startrixburst, and chrysarmordance? For me, these are personally my favorite mlp ot3s

I personally hc that Rainbow Dash actually does enjoy dressing up(a la g3 Rainbow Dash, but only occasionally), so other than modeling(cuz she doesn't like sitting still) she actually enjoys Rarity's work(besides, both AJ and RD are like the heroes in Rarity's tropey adventure romance books, with one being strong and brave, and the other being swift and cunning), and there's just something about Rainbow and Applejack's constant competitiveness

I could NEVER break up startrix, and for starburst I really enjoy the childhood friends dynamic. I've actually consumed more mlp fan content than the actual show or comics, so I don't know much about Trixie and Sunburst's dynamic, so they might be better as queer-platonic, but I do enjoy the hc of them both being trans(Trixie being transfem and Sunburst being transmasc)

I think it would be sweet if two beings of love were wives, but it would funny if they were also the wives of Just Some Guy(TM)

Ohhh very very interesting, okay lemme give my thoughts cause this is a good ask

rarijackdash - This one is pretty funny, because i see exactly what you find appealing about it, its like a love triangle that ends in a polycule n stuff. Rarity keeping the competition going because she likes both of them and loves them fighting for her affection is very cute; but i have never even concidered this one, because there is no world in my mind in which between AJ and RD competing for someone's romantic affections (specialy rarity) that applejack wouldn't win by a landslide everytime, lmao. I'm sorry to rainbow dash fans but the girl is tragicaly self centered and nigh charmless; but i definitely see the potential on what you mean! (also ive recently discovered that Rainbow had closer to rarity's personality on g3 which is very fun) Though hey, i see the potential you mean! its a cute trio. (rarijack has made me mentally ill though i love it too much. 20 pages in to writing a shrek1 but its rarijack fic and i'm not stopping) Okay now the case with startrixburst is an peculiar one, because although sunburst is def one of the best male characters in the show, thats also an incredibly low bar, so i never really thought of it; i do find it funny for a failpolycule of unicorns centered around the biggest failgirl of all time, starlight tho. Worth stating i never paid much mind to the childhood friends backstory because it pissed me off that starlights backstory is "i was traumatized bc i was inconvenienced as a kid and now i'll make it everyones problem" its hard to salvage a character after such a weak ass backstory. But hey, it does seem to come naturaly to make this polycule trio, i aint got nothin against it! (lord knows the startrix dynamic is impecable though) Okay in the case of chrysarmordance, this might be my favorite of all three because like. i thought of how bland shining and cadance's relationship was on the show, then i thought of how simple Cadance and chrysalis would be, but if you stick her boy in the middle; suddenly something really fucking funny happens. Whether its two beings of love arguing over 1 white boy, or if its Shining getting cucked by a bug monster, the entire thing becomes fucking hilarious, with such a potential for hilarious jokes. Alright imma do something i normaly wouldnt do and show some disjointed notes of a multiverse story i'm writing because it's pertinent to this ship and also fucking hilarious.

hi guys <3

i love all the representation in g3 mh and i really really want a character with selective mutism and social anxiety bc ive struggled with that since first grade (im 20 now).

statistically about 1 in 140 kids struggle with it and it really sucks that the only “representation” is raj from the big bang theory. i really think it would help people understand it if they could see real representation instead of a character with sm being used for comedic relief.

my idea is for scarah screams to be reintroduced and for her to struggle with it! not only is she my favorite background character, but in g1 she went to telepathy camp because people were nervous to talk to her because shes a banshee. (banshees announce death for anyone who doesnt know)

i feel like they could take this and turn it into her developing a lot of anxiety around talking to people because shes afraid of announcing their death or something and now can only verbally communicate with her family (like me :))) they could show her overcome it over the course of a season or something to show kids struggling with it that they can overcome it. (she could have a similar journey to me and start with close friends then slowly increase how many friends and expand from there)

i think it’d be cool if they got someone who has dealt with sm in the past to voice her (i volunteer because i am also irish /hj i dont think i’d be a good voice actor lol)

“Doing him worse”

An Oikawa/Iwaizumi fanfic

Disclaimers: Cheating,Public relations, m/m/f, all characters mentioned are the canonical Timeskip characters

Oikawa was known in highschool for being a cheater and I should’ve known he wouldn’t be any different in his prime 20s. I’m so stupid for ever thinking that he wouldn’t but yet here I am looking at his messages with my old college friends titties out with red LEDs in the back, what the fuck is she like 15? LEDs in a nude for a professional volleyball setter is CRAZY but fuck it. If he can cheat on me after I gave him my everything? Trust me I will be doing him worse.

I heard him come out the bathroom and I quickly took a picture on my phone of the message and put his phone down. He came out with a towel and walked up to me with a curious look on his face. “What’s wrong princesa?" he began to kiss on my cheek and neck as I sat still on the edge of the bed "its nothing really kawa" I let out a fake giggle as I got up to get out my skimpiest black tight dress from the closet “get ready now we have to meet your old friends from highschool.” He pouts as he began to put on a nice outfit. His strong muscles were showing as he took off his towel, fuck if it weren’t for the fact that he’s cheating on me right now then I would’ve fucked him right here right now but like the queen Megan thee stallion said “Fuck it guess we both ain’t shit.” I put on my YSL heels and began to head out the bedroom while throwing him a quick wink, he looked at me and hid his hard on with his hands “Princesa you can’t tease me like that” he whined out as he adjusted himself. As I walked into the living room I fixed my hair which was straighten for the occasion the dress kept riding up my thighs as I walked but it was okay for tonight because if he can go for my old friends then I could as well. Specifically Iwaizumi Hajime the hot athletic trainer, that man could’ve been hit it if it weren’t for him asking me to leave Oikawa when he was still with his girl. Oikawa walked out with his keys in his hand and grabbed onto my lower waist “let’s go beautiful” as I rolled my eyes he walked me to his black G3 challenger and opened the passenger door for me as he planted a soft kiss on my neck which made my stomach flutter. As I entered of course the smell of Japanese cherry blossom reeked in the car, typical for a cheater, I grabbed out my J’adore Dior Parfum and sprayed it on myself and the car as Oikawa entered the car and began to drive.

The car ride was awkward as Oikawa slightly knew something was wrong with you since he didn’t get his usual driving head. As they entered the club she was instantly greeted by her older brother Matsukawa with a smile and looking cheerful “Hi guys what’s been up!!” you forced a smile as you hugged your brother “everything has been good Matsu” Oikawa shook Matsukawas hand with a grin “she’s been good you already know that she’s spoiled.” You thought to yourself “Yeah right being spoiled by you fucking a bitch that follows my insta like you don’t even cheat with bad bitches either-“ Your thoughts are suddenly interrupted by Kunimi waving at you with a look of concern.

Kunimi saw her eyes filled with tears as he quickly grabbed her arm and led her deeper into the club and began to speak to her “What’s wrong (Y/N), and don’t lie I know you aren’t one to cry” she sniffled as she quickly cleared her eyes up “I caught him cheating.” He looked shocked at her as he looked at Oikawa and then back at her “I guess mother fuckers never change huh?” You rolled your eyes as Kunimi led her to the bar and sat down with her and Iwaizumi and started a conversation with him and Maddog

As the time passed everyone was at the bar and then You felt a tap on your shoulder and faced Iwaizumi as he pointed behind me and as I looked at the dance floor I was faced with Oikawa getting twerked on by some random girl with a SHEIN dress on. Your eye twitched as Iwaizumi started to speak “What the fuck is wrong with this guy man.” He grabbed his Daiquiri and began to drink, I grabbed my regular old fashioned and began to drink myself. Kunimi and Hanamaki held back a drunk Matsukawa who was trying to fight the man on the dance floor, you turned back and said loudly “Don’t bother Matsu he always does this” they all looked at you like you were fucking mental “and you stay with him?” Maddog who was silent until now spoke up and you looked at him “well what else can I do” Iwaizumi slammed his drink down and stared at you “What the fuck do you mean what else can you do? Maybe get off your high horse and get with a real man” you looked at him, shocked by his outburst, and sighed “What other choices do I have, I’ve never talked to guys after him so as much as I wanna get back at him I just can’t” Iwaizumi looked pissed at you and grabbed his new shot and quickly took it before grabbing your wrist and leading you to the dance floor.

“Iwaizumi what the hell is wrong with you!?” He looked down at you while Thotiana by Blueface was playing and he gave you a look as he led you near where Oikawa was and this was your time, he whispered in your ear as he grabbed onto your hips and began to move them for you “Well now it’s your time to show him that you can get him back worse.” You began to grind on him while he grinded back onto you and grabbed all over your ass while you twerked on him.

As you guys were practicing dry humping you saw Oikawa glaring at you guys before grabbing the girl twerking on him and pulling her in for a heavy make out session which pissed you off more. Iwaizumi also noticed and grabbed you and began to kiss you while grabbing your ass. As your tongues fought for dominance he grabbed you by your neck and said into your ear “You know you have a lot of nerve to cheat on him knowing I’m his best friend” he began to kiss your collarbone and top of your chest while his other hand grabbed onto your ass, you whimpered as he kissed down and you let out small noises but being more dramatic with the facial expressions so Oikawa would see. Iwaizumi looked over at Oikawa who was now red and pushing the girl he was with off of him and walking to the bar, he grinned and turned back to you who was now a sweating and sexy mess which drove him insane.

He sighed while grabbing you, he began dragging you into the empty bathroom and locking the door with a rush of adrenaline while he placed you onto the sink counter. You looked up at him while he stared at you hungry for more which made you wetter by the minute “what’s wrong baby?” You looked at him with lust in your eyes “Are you sure you wanna do this Iwaizumi?” You whimpered out as he looked at you up and down. Quickly he began to kiss and lick on your neck before whispering in your ear “For anyone else no but since it’s my friends sexy ass younger sister then I’m totally sure” he grasped onto your ass as he began to kiss and lick on your cleavage and upper breast which made you moan out as you gripped onto his hair which made him groan. He suddenly grabbed onto the top of your dress and slipped it down your shoulders and let your boobs pop out into the cold air which made you shiver “trust me baby I’m gonna make it hard to let me go” he quickly began to suck and kiss around your boobs as he looked up at you waiting for your approval which you obliged to “Fuck Iwaizumi, you’re making this so hard” you moaned out as he sucked on your nipples and fondled with them as you moaned

Oikawa suddenly banged at the door and began to yell over the music “(Y/N) WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU WITH IN THERE?” You suddenly jumped as you panicked but iwaizumi suddenly grabbed onto your thighs which made you look at him. He suddenly kiss down your body until he got to your inner thigh which made you moan out and spread your legs open “Fuck..” you moaned out which only made Oikawa angrier and he began to shake the handle. Iwaizumi placed a kiss on your sensitive clit, the cloth between taking away some of the sensation but ultimately made you moan out his name “Iwaizumi!” You whimpered out while he licked strips over your pussy which made oikawa yell out “When you’re out of there don’t expect me to give you a ride back home fucking slut.” Iwaizumi suddenly stopped and yelled out “don’t get mad that she’s cheating back on you shittykawa. It’s about time she got with a real man who wants her and not the entire roster” Oikawa suddenly got the door open as he barged in with the bathroom key in his hand which made you panic “Fuck oikawa!” You quickly covered your exposed breast as he quickly closed and locked the door again and leaned against the door “well then I guess it’s only fair, and at least it’s Iwa-chan…” he looked at you guys while Iwaizumi continued to lick on your clit “get out oikawa she’s all mine now” he suddenly pulled skirt up and exposed your now drenched panties to the two guys in the room now which made Oikawa laugh “Clearly he isn’t doing the job right cause with me you would’ve already been dripping princesa” he looked at you and chuckled as Iwaizumi ripped your panties off of you which made you whimper “Fuck (Y/N) please just let me eat you out right now in front of that fucking loser” he suddenly pinched your nipple which made you cry out and nod as he suddenly got down on his knees and began to suck and lick on your bare clit which now was making you dripping wet as oikawa teased out “Aw the poor slut can’t handle the teasing of the man who couldn’t even make it to the big leagues like me?“ this made Iwaizumi determined to fuck you better than Oikawa ever could. You moaned out as Iwaizumi put two fingers into your entrance without warning and not giving much time to adjust before he began to pound into you with his fingers while sucking and abusing your clit with his tongue. As you were about to cry out Oikawa grabbed onto your face and looked you into your eyes “Look princess let’s make a deal I let you have this and I join in on the fun and then we can put the cheating stuff behind us?” You cried out as you nodded and Oikawa instantly pulled you in for a kiss while Iwaizumi began to thrust his fingers faster into you as you began to grind into his face with tears falling from your eyes from pleasure.

Oikawa suddenly began to squeeze and play with your nipples which made you cry out into his mouth as you were about cum “Fuck Iwaizumi keep going please!!” You whined out as he played with your clit aggressively and pounded into your pussy with his fingers, Oikawa began to kiss and lick on your neck while still teasing your nipples. You came onto Iwaizumis face while gripping onto his hair, he got up and stared at you while caressing your chest “Say beautiful girl why don’t you give Mr Ugly ass cheating prince some head while you let me fuck you in that tight ass dress?” You blushed a bright red as you looked over at Oikawa who was happy at the thought of getting a blowjob. You nodded your head and Iwaizumi yanked you off the counter and let oikawa pull his pants and boxer down. Just then Iwaizumi laid your upper half down down on the counter while he suddenly smacked your ass which made you yelp out “Is she on on birth control or some shit?” He asked Oikawa while he slipped his dick out of his pants and lazily stroked it which began smearing the leaking precum onto his shaft. Oikawa suddenly put his dick onto your soft lips which made his dick flinch while he answered “Nope so you better fucking pull out” Iwaizumi held both hands up while shrugging before letting out a sly remark “I know, besides you already pay enough child support Nick Cannon” Oikawa suddenly turned to you and grabbed your cheeks and made you look up at him “Now suck my dick like the good girl you are” You began to kiss and lick his tip while Iwaizumi began to align his dick with your entrance. You moaned in pain when he suddenly stretched you out with his dick. His was much more thicker than Oikawas but slightly smaller length wise as Oikawa stroked your hair as you began to bob your head up and down his shaft. He looked down at you while he hissed out in pleasure “Fuck (Y/N) you really do make it hard to let you go” he began to move your head a bit faster up and down his shaft which made you lightly gag as you struggled to keep up with Iwaizumi thrusting into you “Oikawa how could you cheat on this?” He groans as he grasped onto your ass, Oikawa shrugged as he looked at him “I wasn’t in town and every time I would call for phone sex she wouldn’t answer” he pouted as you looked up at him with angry tears in your eyes as you began to bob your head faster “Although none of them compared to the real thing here it was enough to get through the two weeks I couldn’t pound into her tight pussy” he groaned as he felt himself getting closer as Iwaizumi began to thrust faster and deeper into you. You suddenly popped Oikawas dick out of your mouth as you moaned out, you quickly began to jerk him off while Iwaizumi thrusted into you even faster which made your tits bounce with each stroke. Oikawa groaned out as he began to suddenly cum all over your face, Iwaizumi suddenly flipped you over once Oikawa was done cumming and held your thighs over his shoulders as he began to pound into you at a new angle which made you cry out in pleasure as he sucked on your boobs and nipples. Iwaizumi suddenly groaned “He can’t fuck you like this, can he? You need someone to pound into you like I do baby girl” Oikawa spoke up “Aww (Y/N) chan you just needed to be fucked so you could let this all go? You’re so simple yet so complex.” You moaned out before staring at oikawa “I never said I’ll let this go but I-I need this right now fuck.” Your words now coming out with a moan after “Fuck. You. Oikawa!” You suddenly felt your orgasm coming as Iwaizumi was pounded into you, his strokes becoming sloppier as you were cumming he quickly pulled out and came all over your stomach as Oikawa grabbed some paper towels from the dispenser in the bathroom and quickly cleaned it off of you.

Iwaizumi quickly fixed his pants and left the bathroom in a hurry leaving only you and Oikawa who was now fixing your dress with gentle hands “that’s the reason he never got popular with the ladies, doesn’t know what aftercare even is” he whispered while rolled his eyes as he fixed your hair “Why did you have to cheat on me Oikawa?” You asked him as your voice slightly cracked. He looked down at you with a guilty expression as he caressed your back gently “I know princesa I’m sorry, I was alone in Brazil and I needed the relief and you weren’t answering my calls so I thought you were done with me” he answered earnestly as he kissed your cheek “I wouldn’t have let you do what you just did with Iwa if it weren’t for the fact that I cheated first” You looked at him as you quickly hugged him “It’s okay I forgive you, but if you do this again I’m chopping it off of you” he chuckled and covered you up with a jacket he borrowed from Mattsun and quickly picked you up and walked out of the bathroom with you to say goodbye and head home as you drifted off from exhaustion while he ran his hands through your hair and once you guys made it home laid down together. He smiled and cuddled you before whispering in your ear “I want you and only you princess, and if I cheat again I give you full permission to kick me to the curve” he then kissed your head and drifted off to sleep now himself.
