[popamolly]

CAN WE PLEEEASE PRETTY PLEASE HAVE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES WITH THE VOX, ALASTOR, AND LUCI (AND ANYONE ELSE YOU WANT) AND SITTING ON THEIR LAP AND WHAT GOES DOWN FROM THERE (IM GOING INSANE)

have a nice day, love your writing, drink lotsa water!!!<3

៸៸ ﹟PLAYER NUMBER TWO!

characters. Vox, Alastor, Lucifer and Adam

warning. fem!reader, video game references, smut, 18+ minors dni

author’s note. i’m licking the plate clean at this idea because i just love it so much. thank you for the request anon, you’re so sweet and make sure you take care of yourself too, treat yourself to something nice! i added games to their personality so lmk what y’all think, did i match them correctly? also i have to say thank you sooooo much for 200+ followers??? like what??? i gotta come up with something very juicy for y’all. now enjoy sinners.

ALASTOR

“Ah!” The jumpscare from the scary game had you jolt in Alasto’s lap, making the usually cynical man grin down on your mischievously. You both had wanted to spend some quality time together by playing video games and of course Alastor picked the game, Tormented Souls.

Not only was it scary but it had a jumpscare at every damn left turn. It had gotten so bad to the point that you were sweating like a sinner in church— anticipating it, expecting it, and yet you still would jump. Though your lover Alastor had barely bat an eye to the scary bits as he controlled his character with delicate composure, progressing through the game with expertise.

Alastor wasn’t a saint, he had not only picked this game because it was scary but because he knew you would jump and every time you would squirm in his lap your hips would brush against his cock in the most delicious way. Call it a ploy to get you to grind on him or whatever you wanted to call it but he was too busy reaping the rewards of you in his lap during this gaming session, “Fuck!” You jumped again this time moving in such a way that you felt his hardening dick press against the panties that you wore, teasing you.

“Oh what is this my dear?” Alastor would grin, dropping his controller to grip your hips so he could force you grind on him. One thing led to another and you were moving your hips which such reckless abandon as he clothed cock just rubbed against your clit the right way, making your sopping pussy closer to an orgasm, “What a vixen you are! I barely even touched you and you’re already soaking wet. How entertaining.”

VOX

You were sitting in Vox’s lap, the both of you indulging yourselves in playing video games to take a break from everything at the V tower until you both were freshly rejuvenated for the next day. Though playing Minecraft might not have been a good idea because it caused for more stress than relaxation for some, especially Vox. “Why the fuck are my chickens escaping?” “Did you make a fence?” “It won’t even follow me, the fuck?” “They will follow you if you hold seeds.” “Where the fuck do I get seeds?”

He’d be yelling in your ear but the sound of his voice right on your earlobe and neck made you shiver. Vox noticed this and couldn’t help but smirk, “You enjoying being in my lap, sweetheart?” You turn around in his arms so you could straddle his waist with a suggestive smile. Before you knew it Vox was digging in his fingertips so harshly into your hips as he controlled your movements, impaling you with his cock and enjoying the way your pleading words fell from your soft lips. He bounced you up and down his length not giving a damn if your just came already. “V-Vox! It’s too much! Please…! Ah, fuck!”

Your pussy sucked him in greedily, velvety wall clenching around him as if you didn’t want to let him go. Vox drank in your form like a pure alcoholic. The breathless pants escaping his mouth was barely enough to make coherent sentences as his mind swimmed with bliss. With half lidded eyes, he watched you bounce along his cock, his eyes drifting downwards to watch it stretch you impossibly wide as you sank back down with a loud moan, “Such a naughty girl, enjoying my cock like a little fucking whore. Now tell me while you bounce on my cock,” Vox was in your ear again, groaning loudly but kept his serious tone, “How do I keep my Minecraft chickens?”

LUCIFER

“(Y/N) I finally got Ketchup to complete my duck island, come look! She is soooo adorable!” Lucifer held out his Nintendo switch for you to see the duck villager move onto his island. Your boyfriend— the King of Hell was currently obsessed with having a duck only Animal Crossing island and instead of taking the easy route he had spent weeks in search of Ketchup in the game and thanks to him manifesting it for himself sure enough he found the infamous Ketchup the duck.

You place your own Nintendo switch down to crawl into his lap, full expecting just to be all cute and cuddly but Lucifer had other ideas. How could he focus on creating a duckie empire in his game when your ass rubbed on him in all the right places. The man had been alone for 7 years— surely you knew he lacked physical touch and intimacy for a long time and now? Oh now he was touch starved.

“Her design is to die for! Lucifer now that you finished you could—Lucifer..?” Your eyes widen slightly when you felt Lucifer reposition you two with ease. You were now on all fours with your ass on full display for him, you turned on your cheek to glance back at him with a teasing smile, “What are you doing, Lulu?”

“I think you know my love,” With a snap of his fingers your clothes dissolved into nothing but smoke, leaving you naked and completely at his mercy, “Now don’t be shy, open up for me.” Suddenly your moans were filling the room, bouncing off the walls, leaving you nothing but a drooling mess beneath Lucifer. His grip tightened around your waist, giving you slow and deep thrust that had your eyes rolling into the back of your head. The lewd, squelch! sound coming from your pussy echoing throughout the bedroom, sounding like a sinful melody to the Kings ears. He picks up his pace, his balls slapping against your clit repeatedly as he hit that spot within you that made you arch your back more in desperate need for him to hit it again.

ADAM

“(Y/N) babe, I’m going to need you to stop shooting at the walls and actually shoot another player, please and thank you.” Adam was getting a bit annoyed with you during your gaming session of Call of Duty and it didn’t help that you were on his lap, blocking his own view— and getting himself distracted. Why did you have to sit in his lap again? Something about wanting to feel closer to him or whatever cheesy shit you said he wasn’t really paying attention. He was complaining about it but he just wanted to tease you, in reality he loved it, “Pay attention (Y/N), this is a team effort, can’t have you going down first, danger tits.”

Your back was to Adam’s chest and your boyfriend couldn’t help his cock straining against the fabric of his red apple print pajama shorts at the feeling of your warm cunt pressing against himself you didn’t mean it in the way but he took it that way. With a devious grin, he would bring his long slender fingers to rub your clothed sex teasingly, making you nearly jump slightly from the contact, “Adam—!”

“Focus on the game babe, I’m not doing anything.” Adam was such a liar. He had now snaked his fingers past the waistband of your leggings, groaning softly to himself upon making contact with your slick folds. He rubbed your clit making you completely submit to his ministrations with a soft moan, letting your body relax against him as you clutched the controller in your hand. Your toes curled and legs began to slightly close as Adam added a finger, then two, then three. “Spread your legs wider gorgeous, let me play with that pretty pussy.”

vodwatching. and the feb 25 2024 zam s5 stream (around the 2 hour mark) means so much to me. it is just so Season 5. vitalasy: just having left lifesteal. sessions: weekly. the server outside of those sessions: slow, quiet. abyss is the only thing happening on the server. the wounds were SO fresh from vitalasy that when planet talks about banning himself, we think it’s real. i thought he was for real. even bacon thinks it’s real—

bacon: oh, fuck. [planet's] banned dude. like he’s gone- like he’s not joining back. like actually, he’s gone from the server. zam: yeah, he stole my 200 armour sets, he humiliated our goal, he got the last laugh.

(i love love love the differences in priorities. bacon is So So Sad and zam is just like. oh this planet guy was so mean grrgrgrgr)

zam: i genuinely didn’t expect him to do it. i thought it was gonna be a fakeout, i really did. bacon: i knew he was gonna do it. (why does he sound so sad while saying this im sick) zam: yeah, it was pretty obvious based on the fact that he needs to edit, but, i’m talking about like— bacon (interrupting zam): nonono, i don’t think it has to do with him having to edit. i think it’s a little bit deeper, like this isn’t like a jepexx thing. i don’t think, at least. zam: what, so he’s just tired of fighting us, or like? bacon: i don’t think it’s about us. i think he’s, i think he’s gone from lifesteal.

(the way bacon Knows. he knows planet. ITS NOT JUST EDITING it's more than that.)

anyways the genuine fear from the circumstances OUTSIDE of minecraft is. insane to me. its so good. in a world where respawn is like waking up in the morning and revival is just a couple hours of grinding, this feels like, death. a permanent, real death—

zam: this season’s all about blurring the lines between what’s real and what’s not.

I love minecraft roleplay. i love bacon giving So Many Shits for planet. the way zam does not care as much as bacon does because nobody cares for planet as much as bacon does. i love the way planet stands under a cherry blossom tree as they deliver their final yap. something something the ephemerality of cherry blossoms.

planet: i was at 20 hearts when i started this. and now i’m on… not 20 hearts. zam: i lost my spark. planet: i lost my spark too.

spark... something something the Planet Themes of violence and power and Learning what it takes to be a 20 heart player (pride duo video </3) oh my goodness.

[iluvchainmail]

ok ive finished :) and i do have thoughts. area unknown has been really special. its a rare bird in terms of minecraft content and theres just so many important stories being told there. the way it relates to the wider sunship canon or whatever its called is amazing, and the otehr ppls content like oli's dedicated grinding, moonzy's beautiful buildings or graaavel's awesome lore (HIS LORE VIDEO WAS SO GOOD. IT WAS SO FUCKING GOOD. THE MUSIC????? YEA), was all so amazing to witness.

BUT i do have some criticisms if you dont mind me sharing. none of it is with ill intent and i understand why the decisions that were made happened but i still think its worth pointing out.

im disappointed with how aimsey and scott's arc was left off, because i dont think it reached a satisfying conclusion at all and the loose threads they left didn't feel like a culmination of their relationship. aimsey and scott's conversations are some of my favourite parts of the lore because their relationship is so, SO interesting and really worth exploring. so ending it by saying "scott just got bored and went back to hell" was not a good move i feel. i really wanted to see something more there.

guqqie does touch on hera's influence when she discovers the grave but to be honest i dont understand why she was allowed to get married to aimsey and have a happy ending. hera has made a point of dooming them in every single universe and she just loves torturing her little experiment, and her influence has continued into season two with egging aimsey and oli on with the lab, so i really don't understand why guqqie was able to seperate herself from this and later get married when that has never been allowed before

i guess that everything was intentionally left pretty open ended so things could change in future, guqqie did say she'd write something up later this week which could give answers to what i mentioned above. and who knows, maybe in the years guqqie and aimsey were split hera could have been defeated in some way. maybe guqqie went back and confronted her or something idk. i would really like to see something like that though. and of course that open-endedness leaves room for aimsey and scott to do something which would also be great. but yeah those are my less great thoughts about the finale. but do not be fooled just because it wasnt absolutely perfect didnt mean i didnt enjoy it/think it was bad

FORTUNATELY it has given me a great window to start working on that au because i really want to develop scott and aimseys arc, explore aimsey's feelings as a demon and the horror that comes with that, and his relationship to hera because the one time they interacted always gives me chills. so i think the finale was flawed but thats ok because now i can go in and do awesome stuff with my own ideas for a bad ending. because i like hera cannot let the characters rest. ineed to be stopped hehehe

but yeah apart from that i did really enjoy the finale. it did feel like area unknown. the party, never have i ever, michela being hilarious and caitees being weird, and of course heartbreaking sunship lore. it genuinely gave me the same warm feeling as when i was watching through all those vods from 2022 when they were just messing around or screaming at each other in the rain. area unknown needed to end. no one seemed to want or have the time/inspiration/motivation to do stuff on it anymore, and the characters needed a conclusion and to be let go so they could just be in their own right. i'm glad that its done. it was really special. i cant wait to see what everyone does next :3

i agree heavily on the scott and aimsey topic, i wish we could’ve gotten more development of their relationship or seen scott in s2 bc there was a psrt of his house i think somewhere and then he was never mentioned again iirc, but they were probably both too busy or something to do anything which is ok i’ll just make it up in my head :3

and i hope there is a bit more of something w hera and auguqqies whole thing and how hera allowed ausunship to get married, or how all that went. i’m just really curious

anyways love u sneef thank u for liveasking to me this has been very fun :333 <3 im rlly glad u liked area unknown!!!!!!!

anyway im back on my minecraft terraforming grind

SUPER MEGA PROTIP FROM ARTFIGHT VETERAN!!!!

HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!

Okay, no, on a serious note: here's some things I would like to share with new people as a person who participates in Artfight since 2019:

you don't have to make fully rendered attacks. sketch is a category for a reason! "even" sketches are immensely appreciated

actually, you don't even have to *draw* for attacks! last year I did some minecraft skins for fun. saw someone make dice sets as attacks. as long as it's allowed and it's art created by you (and tagged accordingly) you can make whatever the heck you want!

you don't have to make your art digitally either. traditional attacks are epic. love em

having fancy character references is not a requirement! if art of ur oc shows their design (or at least most important aspects of it) and is decent quality, it's enough. a lil tip tho - don't add shaded/textured drawings for that matter, hard to color pick. if these are the only ones you have, make a basic color palette next to it!:) helps others make your character look accurate

pace yourself. yes, there are people who draw attacks everyday. yes, there are people who drop attacks with 100+ characters in it. doesn't mean you have to do same thing! it's all about having fun and, trust me, grinding until you are sick of drawing is not fun. been here, done that

revenges and friendly fire aren't a MUST. you want points? okay, if u wanna grind, then go ahead and attack opposite team! person who attacked you has characters that you can't/aren't comfortable with drawing? it's okay not to do revenge. Revenges are fun, I always try to do them, but it's not something you absolutely must do.

try to always read characters permissions and descriptions. sometimes there's key info in them and I feel like it's quite important to stay accurate to them. again, if you can't do something they ask you there - it's okay to choose different character or person to attack

don't attack someone expecting them to 100% attack you back. if you set your expectations to that, you might get disappointed and it takes away the fun from ya. attack because you want to draw the character, because it has cool story, cool design, the person is cool so you want to give em a lil gift, etc, etc. Same as you don't have to attack everyone back, they don't have to either

hitlists are optional. some people make em, some don't. same with those funky id cards, my lazy ass gave up on em this year and it's cool 👍

basically don't be an ass, have fun and remember to take breaks!

Also, if ya want, add my dumbass (~simplymisty_) on artfight, because I'm in jail of making refs at the last minute, so I try not to go on AF until im done with em. I do friendly fire, revenges, revenge chains and try to draw basically anything. Love that artfight grind. Hope you liked my autistic rant, it's 5 am and idk what I'm talking about anymore

people affirming my beliefs about calamity mod both on tumblr and twitter has been nice. im glad other people enjoy the game for more than just boss fights. its... exploring, its BUILDING, its... grinding <3 (even if GOD i lovethebossfights so much!! and heck, i love the calamity boss fights esp the infernum ones a lot!!! i need more bullet hell!!) i do ponder sometimes though if i force myself a Bit Too Much to build. out of like, wanting to prove that i am a... i dunno. some contrarian-ness. or just wanting to feel unique or... prove that im a person who Can build. the need to prove myself, even in a singleplayer world but eh, like. i dont need to prove myself and ultimately i DO get the desire to build a good house in terraria when i play it; its fun! which. is baffling to me cus i really dont like building in survival minecraft but eh survival mc is just too tedious. creative is fun though

so like, im not a faker. its just imposter syndrome about enjoying building since i admittedly DID need to force myself to get into it, so i wonder if theres still the old part of me that prefers to just stick to progression maybe its moreso that i healthily keep myself in check by nudging myself towards building to make sure i dont just solely do the bossfights and progression though even then, even if you dont build... theres still a lot of gameplay that calamity removes. like a lot of the exploration and looting so yeah i... i guess this is a vent post?? vaguely?? at this point?? i could probably let myself do a playthrough where i dont build, but i guess i sometimes worry that i'd end up failing to prove my point that the game is perfect and pylons are amazing and that the game motivates me to build really well. ...its a combination of my own motivation/desire , and the game permitting that desire, though, that makes building reasonable and fun. so yeah i could go back to doing playthroughs with a little less constant building... even if i do honestly enjoy building. because i shouldnt feel the need to force myself to constantly out of desperation to be proving that the game can include building but hm well i enjoy both types of play. and im not gonna suddenly lose my ability to play the game one way by playing it the other way. i could probably alternate my terraria runs between being more meaningful with builds and... more fast paced without stopping n smelling the roses

[zonerz]

Took a brief break from the editing/revision grind to do smth different as an exercise! Still going strong for Answers but I needed to step back for a sec or risk my brain exploding BBFHDHDHD

Anyways this is a rewrite of the 1.04 scene where Jesse finds out about the truth of the Ender Dragon! Fun! And I’m utilizing more lore that Ive been injecting back into Answers with this big revision process! Yay!

NOT yay for Soren he is. Um well things are looking Much Worse for him now 😭👍 sorry bro for the added weight and consequence of your actions

Im rambling a liddol bit now BUT it was also very fun to write with a far more reserved, self conscious, and inexperienced Jesse :> He’s still got some bite in him in this but it’s mostly due to The Circumstances 💀

Anyways have fun!!! ALSO REUBENNNN 🥺🥺🥺💖💖💖

[crsssie]

🍒 all the best with the hades grind, sister </3

(we are so twinning <3 aroace pals <3 my only outlet is the creative way which is writing and drawing heh...)

(pt.2 wanna play some multiplayer games with u ngl but our obvious differences in time zones will beat my ass n i crashed at 9pm on a work day)

FORGTO TO RESPOND FUCK uh yeah </3 i joined the crk train when it hit its like 1st year anniversary and have been on and off (toxic relationship style) ... also stardew valley I'm terrified to touch bc i know I'm gonna spend all of my time playing it and uh. i have assignments due </3 free me from uni turn me back into a terrorizing toddler </3333

[mbat]

i watched a video a few weeks back about cozy games and how they have kind of an illusion of escapism and peace but they often take form of being a sort of capitalist grind where youre just gathering resources to sell and buy stuff over and over right. they didnt mean it as like a bad thing btw it was just like a 'hey isnt it interesting how this is like this' kind of thing

and yeah i can see that applying to most games they were talking about. but then they brought minecraft into it and they were like 'for example, in minecraft, everything is a possible resource!' and idk it felt wrong to me

because like, yeah sure, everything in minecraft is a possible resource, but... not in a capitalist way? the closest thing to a money system in minecraft (and im talking singleplayer/small multiplayer. this does not include big servers) is the villagers, but you can go your entire playthrough without trading a single thing with them, and i often do.

aside from them, the uses of your resources isnt any amount of riches. if you get the valuable items in the game, you dont keep them around as currency, you use them for tools or armor or whatever else theyre used for. there isnt really a care for money in minecraft

instead what resources are used for is building, making art, exploring, having fun, surviving.

thats not capitalist, thats just... how humans live outside of money (i cant think of a better way to phrase it)

you can argue that its still capitalist that the resources still 'need uses' but then thats just saying that existence is capitalist

also literally not everything in minecraft has a 'use' unless you count ambiance or whatever as a use. bats in minecraft do nothing. you cant tame them, they dont breed, they dont drop anything, i dont even know if you can use a lead on them!

i know its not the same because theyre not blocks, but pretty much every other creature in the game has a 'use', and yet here we are. i wouldnt even want it any other way! obviously im the bat guy so i love them lol

idk how to phrase my point but it just rubbed me the wrong way. in minecraft, you dont do what you do for the hope of getting money, you do it because you can. you can gather everything yourself, you can build a pretty base because you can, you survive because you can. youre free. you dont worry about running low on things because someone else holds them from you for a price, you worry about them running low simply because theyre running low. the only thing getting in your way is yourself and the area around you.

me and my friend have an inside joke about saying 'u would' to the other but upscaling it on each other in the most stupid ways

examples:

i put 'u would' sign on his minecraft house, he takes half an hour to discover it.

he sends me 'u would' in pokemmo by mailing the letters of alphabet pokemon. that he grinded hours for.

i send a series of images and texts of 'wood from a yew tree' and then i trick him into saying 'yew wood', which took days to happen.

this is at least a year old, if not two, idk how time works. but this is an ongoing longterm inside joke.

WELL TODAY., READER. TODAY. HE WAS LIKE 'hey theres something coming to ur house'. its like 6pm. im all excited, i go outside. im excitedly waiting. reader. im in my kitty cat pajamas and a cute beanie and halloween socks and sandals. and a big cat blankey. im all excited, tiptoeing, peeking for any delivery. neighbors arent surprised, theyre used to this and nonchalantly walk past me to continue their night.

i wait about 20 minutes. and then i see a pizza delivery guy. he smiles. he hands me a pizza. im all excited cuz hes all smiling at me. im all happy, i thank him, he goes.

i excitedly go back on the computer, telling them that the pizza guy was all nice and talkative. and how happy i felt. he was like hyping me up for this pizza. my friend was like oh howd it go, whatd he say?

and reader. i was all happy, repeating to my friends in vc. saying how the pizza guy was like 'pizza?' and im like 'yep!' and the pizza guy was like 'oh, you would, it's a great day for dominoes!'. and then reader. my friends interrupted me. while i was in vc with them, i hear my friends, and that friend. LAUGHING. AN EVIL LAUGH. A "GOTCHA" LAUGH. AND I WAS LIKE. wAIT A MINUTE. and then it hit me. FUCKKKKKK-

anyways, i'll remember this. i'll remember this.

and thank you for the pizza. it is delicious. but i will plot as i eat this pizza. i plot.

[gg-selvish]

I only ever really Sapnap characterized as the “straight one” in dnf fic which is usually used to contrast how someone reacts to their best friend versus how someone reacts to someone they’re attracted to. That makes sense to me even if it mischaracterizes Sapnap’s relationship with dnf. I’ve read one too many fics where dnf are hitting on each other or flirting or direct it teasingly to Sapnap and have his reaction be running for the hills. Like Sapnap hasn’t leaned into every gay joke or flirtation made by his friends, but he’s got to be the “straight one” because that’s how the straights react and the whole poor Sapnap save him thing. It does serve the purpose of getting Sapnap away, which I do like because I prefer a dnf fic to be just about them and saves me the trouble of having to read people trying and write a character I like, but they don’t care for.

mmm i disagree and also agree with this so this is gonna be long-winded as i often am.

i do agree that the biggest perpetrator of super straight and like... man's man sapnap is dnfers because of this like ur so right and. as someone who reads a lot of dnf i wish they just wouldnt even mention him lmaoooooo reading whatever reason theyve made up to get him out of the house is amusing in an annoying way. i like dnf fics where theyre just alone in the house and no one asks questions why. i read dnf for dnf not for sapnap to be there especially if they're gonna characterize him the way they do. but thats dnfers and they do things their way and thats fine i just ignore it im not gonna police anyone's writing i'm just gonna talk about it on my little blog with like 12 followers and hope no one reads it...

my biggest issue with it and where i saw it a lot in the older days (late 2020 through 2021 especially but it went beyond that too) in a way that really grinded my gears was with this like. one specific breed of karlnap. i used to ship karlnap and LOVED karlnap especially during their initial meetups. im a dnkn shipper til i die there's no reason for me to dislike them. but i just couldnt stop finding myself reading these fics that were just so strange. hyper-masculine sapnap with ditsy effeminate karl in this very very binary way that i just couldn't compute. it not only disagreed with my personal opinions but it would develop into what i saw as a slightly off-putting lack of chemistry and was just really unenjoyable for me to read. it read like m/f to me which is fine but when im looking for mlm fic i want to read mlm. this goes back to wanting queer dynamics in representation of queer relationships (note: i'm using the word representation VERY loosely. im not implying fanfiction is anything close to actual representation). it was just so weird

it's kind of funny because i realized this in a very roundabout way. a friend of mine from outside the fandom wrote and gifted to me a karlnap fic based on the karlnap they had read and it was like the perfect highlight of the dynamics in the ship that bothered me... i loved the fic, still love my friend for writing it, but it really pointed out that the characterization of those two was just so set in stone in those days and i read it but i didn't like it in the long run or as inspiration for my own writing. the writing was incredible, the quality of it was great and it popped off it was amazing. my issue was with the guts of it, yknow? the internal stuff.

that's one of the main reasons i started writing karl differently than i used to (remember when i used to write karlnap? subbottom karl in MY christian minecraft server?) and focussing on kwtnf because i was mad about the sapnap characterization but didnt watch him solo enough to focus on him... then i hyperfixated onto karl and went fucking hog wild with the idea of him and his character in my head. it obviously didnt do anything i dont have any impact on other people but it made me feel better lol

maybe ive been watching too much viking pilot lately, i had a just horrible awful day Minecraft yesterday, died in the nether from a lag spike, died again from another lag spike, no longer able to find my stuff, logged off because that fucking hurt, intended to go to ved but instead i speedran the stages of grief in approx 2 minutes, logged back on and started monologuing to myself alone in my room while i made a new set of gear out of Spite.

anyways im gonna log in now and continue whatever this arc is by pretending to be a streamer while i grind
