Kinktober 2024 Day #1: Dirty Talk

Commander Thorn x OFC (Iriya "Kau'ra" Nahi)

Kinktober 2024 masterlist

Warnings: Dirty talk, phone foreplay?

“Hey.” Kau'ra's dulcet tone makes Thorn smile. He leans back some in the seat of his speeder.

“Hey yourself.”

“How's your patrol going?” 

Thorn shrugs despite her not being able to see him. The night had been fairly uneventful on the floors he's patrolling. 

“Same old, same old.”

“Has it been... you know?”

“Don't.” Thorn warns, his voice lowering. Kau'ra snickers. His heart skips at the noise, even though it's at his expense.

“I wasn't going to say the q word.” Kau'ra lets out a low hum. “Besides. I was asking for a reason.”

Thorn arches an eyebrow. Kau'ra's voice becomes a little more breathy, an indication of exactly where she was going with this. Thorn's eyes flit around for a second. His speeder sits in the shadows of one of the buildings.

“And what reason might that be?” His voice responds to hers, dropping an octave and becoming huskier. Kau'ra giggles.

“Oh, nothing urgent. I just wanted to say I missed you.”

“It sounds like you miss one thing in particular.” He can't help teasing. Kau'ra lets out an indignant squeak, but it's clear she isn't truly offended. 

“I take it back. I don't miss you.” 

Even though he can't see her, he knows she stuck his tongue out at him. Thorn shakes his head and lets out a low laugh.

“But seriously, what are you doing right now?”

Thorn raises an eyebrow. Despite himself, his heart beat picks up a bit. He sits up a little more straight.

“Why?” He elongates the word, giving it a teasing quality.

“Because. I don't want to distract you if what you're doing is important.”

“And what kind of distraction are you offering?”

“Only the best kind.”

Thorn laughs at that. He drums his fingers against the edge of his speeder, eyes scanning the area. Nothing seems to be happening. 

“I suppose.” He hopes he comes off cool and collected. Thorn almost sighs when his voice doesn't come out a squeak. Kau'ra managed to get him to do that once, and he never lived it down.

“Good.” Kau'ra hums softly. “I have a confession to make.”

“Oh, are we pretending you're a nun?” He doesn't even think; the words fall easily from his lips. Kau'ra clearly tries to go for disappointment, but a snort of laughter betrays her. 

“I'm sure you'd want to see me get on my knees for you.”

Thorn let's out a choked noise. Kau'ra hums. The sound is entirely too pleased. Thorn wants to deny it, but the image makes blood rush through his veins. Kau'ra clearly sees her opening.

“Come on, you can't tell me you haven't thought about the last time.” Fuck, how does she make every word from her lips drip with honey? A honey he wants to lick from her lips. “We're so lucky we didn't get caught.”

“Kau'ra...”

“I'd do it again. I like being on my knees for you.”

He can't help his sharp inhale. Kau'ra giggles. She giggles at him, yet he can't find it in himself to truly be mad.

“I wonder. Do you think next time I can take you all the way down? You can't tell me the idea of me deep throating you in public isn't hot.”

“Kau'ra, I'm on patrol.” He feels his control of the situation slipping with every passing second.

“Oh? And here I was thinking you were eager to play.” Her faux disappoint makes his stomach flip in a pleasant way. Thorn won't admit it, but when she gets this way, it makes every thought leave him. All he can think about is her, tasting her, touching her, pleasing her.

“I am but-”

“When does your shift end?” She tries to inject innocence into her tone. He hears the wicked smile on her soft lips.

Thorn checks his comments faster than he ever has in his life.

"Two hours.”

“I'll get myself nice and warmed up for you. Two hours should give me plenty of time.”

Thorn lets his head fall forward with a groan.

“Are you trying to kill me?”

“Only a little death.” Thorn rolls his eyes at her joke. He hears her all too pleased snicker on the other line. He wants to tell her off; no words come to mind. 

“I'll see you in two hours?”

“Two hours.” He nods rapidly as he agrees.

The line goes dead. Thorn inhales deeply. He wonders if she knows what she does to him, to all of them. Maneater doesn't even begin to describe her. He doesn't mind; he likes it when he's on her menu.

This was going to be the longest two hours of his life.

「JJK 265: YUUJI & THE MORNING GLORY」

[Beware of SPOILERS]

So, I’m sure that everyone who read chapter 265 has noticed Yuuji mistaking hydrangea for morning glory. And I feel like it’s just more than a ‘subtle detail’, especially when the crayfish panels next to this also symbolized something. Not saying this is canon or anything, but I'm going to analyze the connection between Yuuji & the Morning Glory.

(This is gonna be interesting, I assure you ;)

THE MORNING GLORY

Morning Glory, or 朝顔 [Asagao] is an extremely popular flower in Japan. Although it is believed that they were introduced to Japan in the Heian period (794 - 1185), it was particularly loved in the Edo period (1603 - 1867). Books were even illustrated about it back then. 朝顔三十六花撰 (Asagao Sanju Rokka Sen) is a famous book that dates back to 1854, which displays beautiful illustrations of the Morning Glory.

But what does it symbolize, you ask? Well, in Japan, the Morning Glory is known for its momentary beauty, with the early bloom and decline of the flower. It blooms fresh in the morning, however, its petals close at noon. It is also associated with passionate love:

Even today, the Japanese morning glory is seen as a symbol of strong, unyielding love, making it a beloved choice in romantic gestures. Tomoko Kamishima, A Passion for Morning Glories, 2019

The Morning Glory also symbolizes the hot summer in Japan, with the Morning Glory Iriya Market Festival taking the lead place every year from July 6-8.

With all these details in mind, how does it connect with Yuuji?

THE CONNECTION

Well, the momentary blossom of the flower can represent the fleeting happiness in Yuuji’s life.

Yuuji’s lifetime wasn’t the best, but before Sukuna trampled on his everything, he was a fresh boy who was carefree and enjoyed life in his own way. The small period between him enrolling in Jujutsu High and Shibuya Arc rose as a happy experience for him with his newly made friends.

Also, remember in this chapter that he was recalling little happy moments in his childhood before Sukuna interrupted him.

Moreover, he lost every loved one he made through Jujutsu High. Nanami exploded, Kugisaki’s head blew up, Gojo split in half, Choso vanished into particles. The only one left who’s actually close to Yuuji is Fushiguro. But Sukuna took Fushiguro too. And he’s about to kill him as well, meaning that the last strand of Yuuji’s momentary happiness is about to disappear.

It could also mean that Yuuji’s life is slowly coming to an end, with the petals of his lifeline slowly closing, despite being so young and fresh.

In this chapter, Yuuji makes a bargain to Sukuna that if Sukuna let go of Megumi, he’ll let Sukuna live inside him with Yuuji as the host. This is quite a good solution on its own. However, when you remember their first plan back in the beginning of Jujutsu Kaisen, it becomes a huge possibility that Yuuji will kill himself along with Sukuna to ensure everyone’s safety this time.

Even if Yuuji is convinced to stay alive, not a lot of people would be in his favor because he’s holding in the very person that was about to kill all of them, so he’ll probably get executed in one way or the other.

For now I’m here, but can one trust the future? No, not in a world that teaches us its ways with the morning glory

Writer Game

Rules: post the first sentence of your last ten fics. If you haven't written ten fics, share as many first sentences as you have.

Tagged by @mirrordaltokki

I don't think I can tag anyone who hasn't already done this... Also, I apologize in advance for not knowing better ways to do links.

A small disclaimer that I'm very much a “multi chapter” writer so I'm going to take first lines from first chapters, not first lines from most recent chapters (with one exception). Also, plenty of my work is NSFW, so if you choose to read the fics in full mind the tags please!

Light Rampant: Latest in a long running series (the sixth volume to be exact); this part is retelling some of Shadowbringers as Berylla goes through it.

The Calling was different this time.

A True Gift: An exchange fic from this past December; Theodis attends the Leveilleur Starlight party. Quite wholesome actually.

Starlight Season had come once again – the first one since their journey to the edge of the universe.

Faire Play Fireworks: A fic made of mostly unrelated porn drabbles, VERY NSFW. I'm breaking my pattern here, and showing the first line of the most recent chapter.

“Berylla – what are you doing here?” Alphinaud blinked at me, lowering the book her had been looking at. “Not that I mind – quite the opposite!”

Wanderings (FFXIV Write 2022): As is the nature of FFXIV Write, a fic of ficlets. Some were NSFW.

The alley was well lit, and therefore not as dirty as many others in the city.

Restoration: A commissioned piece; Iriya sits with Estinien after the Final Steps of Fate battle.

The infirmary within the Congregation of the Knights Most Heavenly was full to overflowing; every large ward-room was packed with cots, and even some of the large indoor practice-grounds in the neighboring Tribunal building had been pressed into service to accommodate the hundreds of wounded after the battle against the Horde.

Shadowed Heart: volume 5 in the long series; concluding Stormblood starting halfway through the Omega raids, so the first scene picks up there. Not as much NSFW as some of my work...

I stood on the deck of the Excelsior with my arms crossed, while Cid stood at the helm.

Shine Brighter: A commissioned piece; Iriya and Estinien admit to their feelings for each other.

Iriya stood alone on the edge of the world, and looked out across endless stars.

The Big Questions: Nightbird has to talk to Estinien. Not NSFW but there's discussion of pregnancy.

“Are you packed?”

“Estinien, I've been packed. I was waiting for you...to...” Nightbird's mouth went dry as she turned to look at the dragoon. “Why are you half naked?”

Voidsent Inflorescence: Fair warning that this one's all-around WEIRD. Written almost in a fever dream, not NSFW just kind of strange, not even really horror I guess?

Under the elderberry clouds the trees grow in the breathless heat.

Not Again! (WoW/FFXIV crossover): This has some NSFW in later chapters but mostly just a halfway silly crossover “What if Alphinaud got dumped into Azeroth, how would that play out?”

“Khadgar, are you in here – oh good, there you are.”

My Yuugen Romantica HC's That No One Asked for!! :)

Hifumi :

- watches whatev he want (hecc even he doesn't care abt what genre of anime he watched lmao, depends on MC if they want to watch it together).

- listens to RnB musics, or nostalgic ones. Or whatev as long as it had a beat to it.

- when he first saw the MC, he actually dosen't understand how love worked. But after hanawo explained EVERYTHING, he starts to understand and well...he is him now, lol.

- he always watches vine comp with utashiro. They did the 'i can't forget you' vine and hanawo laughs his butt off.

- Probs love to take selfies (from his official pic where he do the peace ✌🏻 sign). In every chara's phone, you will see pics of them with Hifumi on it/or them taking a selfie with Hifumi.

He would be biased towards keito, because he is very cool in his opinion

- rather calm while eating. But still, if you bothered him, he'll go mad lol.

- he likes learning about chemicals. And he is also interested on theories too.

Iriya :

- He likes having a chill time beside a pond/lake. It's just the sound of the waters that kept him calm.

- he loves to pray on people and paralyze them. He always see the paralyzed people being his succeeds.

- he likes physical touch eventhough he is shy. He is a huge cuddlebug to MC.

- he is rather shy about sensual things, which is why him and toneri's interactions are wacky as hecc.

- he'd use some emojis like : 😉, 🤗, 🥰, 😳, 😅 based on his reactons.

- music-wise, he listens to idol songs. Like Perfume, Poppin' Party, Happy Around!. Just these because he founds out about idol franchises in accident.

- cue dancing with toneri until toneri changes the song into a flirty song.

- "Toneri, why do you changed the song?" Merry Says, "Well because i'm not a huge idol fan so i decided to changed it!" Toneri said w/ a grin.

- he is always seen buying hamburger skewers in festivals.

- he does like woman's curves in the back. But he hates it when her undergarment would shown.

Arahagi :

- likes kittens so much, would even hold it in his hands and nuzzle the kitten.

- probably had tiktok and twt. He be like . "hey everyone, it's arahagi and it's just another day that toneri and zakuro argued".

- would painted his nails ✨beautifully✨.

- listens to material gworl. Like srsly, i bet he would be memeing about it to others.

- Listens to Dirty Musics. Like any music that is sussy, that's his alley.

- Would watch AnimeFesta bullcrap. (If you know 'sweet punishment' you'll know what i am talking about rn) and would even drag someone to watch it (either MC because he thought it was a good idea liking someone like that, Iriya because of him being 'adult-like', and lastly hifumi because he doesn't care lol).

- because of this, hanawo lecture him so much that it was TOTALLY WRONG to love someone like that way.

- Him and Zakuro often argues a lot on situations/disscussions about sensual shit.

- would join tiktok trends with arahagi. And most of it are pretty good.

- He dislikes all vegetables in general.

- he is the one who recommended Holywood Undead to Zakuro. He probably listened to 'Everywhere i Go' many times.

Hanawo :

- Sassy Boy Material.

- The Mom of the Group. Even Hifumi calls him "Hanamom".

- Would do tiktok trends with arahagi. Mostly about beauty or cosmetics though.

- he would vibe along with toneri. Like srsly, he doesn't mind the song being sussy at all at least it's a bop.

- also listens to cupcakke for meme shit.

- the one who is pretty experienced when it comes to relationship. He would gave dating tips to others so they could love MC in the Correct Way.

- he would even search it in the internet for that lol.

- a clean freak. If there's anything dirty, he would probs call others to help him cleaning smth (Reference to one of his line stickers).

- Listens to idol hell songs like merry, but he likes western artists too. He loves Sam Smith, Katy Perry, or any other artist/rappers with Bop-y songs.

- "You've been falling in love, oh oh oh oh. CALIFORNIA GIRLS WERE UNFORGETTABLE DAISY DUKES BIKINIS ON TOP SUN KISS SKIN SO HOT WILL MELT YOUR POPSICLE-"

- others will joined the callifornia girls dance meme. Especially Hifumi, Utashiro, or Toneri.

- he will go like "m'lady" and straight up throws rose petals dramatically for his entrance. And has done it when MC came into his place.

[nowhere-pics]

To cut down on travel cost, I looked for the cheapest place I could stay for a week. I ended up in a slightly old capsule hotel at Asakusa, near Iriya station.

It was a rather chilly December morning, the night after I arrived at the city. I woke up and walked out to the fire-escape to take a good look at the streets. Then I came across this scene, high school students presumably having a PE lesson.

I feel peaceful, seeing those students probably having the 20th PE lesson in this year, and the various sounds brought to me by the wind. Distant sound of car engines, siren, the collective murmur of the city.

I suppose only a visitor visiting a foreign land could romanticise something as mundane as this. Or perhaps it's Tokyo, the city always has a special place in my heart.

[bxtonpxss]

As her partner turns to face her Neya takes a second to study his features. He looked so familiar, and in a blink it comes to her in a rush like an explosive to the face. Instinctively her frame stiffens and she reaches down for one of her kunai. Iriya. Utsuho's old friend turned enemy from Osho-san's village. 

But then as her finger brushes over the handle of her weapon, she stops. Don't be silly Neya. That couldn't be right, Iriya was dead. Utsuho and Uzume had made sure of it, she didn't know everything that transpired during their fight inside the palace but Utusho was very adamant about Iriya not being able to survive that final blow. A strike straight to the heart, and the only person they knew who could survive anything like that was Nibyo-san and he wasn't exactly what you called normal.

Plus, unless she had solid proof it was him, she might end up looking foolish for so acting rashly. Taking a moment to calm herself, she lets out a slow breath and pretends to brush off some dirt around the edge of her skirt to play off the fact that she was ready to attack her partner. Perhaps Kawa-san just had the unfortunate luck of sharing that evil man’s features. She understood more than anyone what its like to share scarily similar features with an absolute stranger.

Neya stares at Kawa for a few moments longer, then smiles a little more awkwardly and forced than before. "Er.. I uh was just curious about the first competition." She turns her attention away from him and tries to focus on the announcer, but they were still calling names for partners. Just how many people had signed up for this competition?

"I've never participated in a week-long event before, so I was just wondering what the challenges would be like. Do you think it will be easy?"

He must have started to space out at some point during the waiting process. He'd been looking out over the crowd, wondering how many of these people were competitors. After all, more competition meant longer, harder contests. After all, if they only gave a few points here and there, the chance of a tie was too high, so the general rule was that events had to be scaled based on the amount of people. A 20-minute game could turn into an all day affair-- and then had to be repeated seven times.

Just as he was resigning himself to this being a long week, so he might as well try to have fun, he realizes there's a voice right next to him. He only tunes into it halfway through, once he realizes the person is, in fact, speaking to him specifically.

The voice in his ears feels like a mosquito. Not in how it sounds, per se, but in the urge to twitch and flinch away from it. That uncomfortable sensation of something that you don't want near you being way too close. But even Iriya knows flinching is too rude for a first interaction, so he holds back by shaking his head in response to the one question he'd actually heard in full.

"No, it's my fir-" Oh no. No, this was a bad, bad idea. He'd turned his head to make eye contact with the woman standing next to him, only to be face to face with a familiar sight. Not a reunion-with-a-long-lost-friend kind of familiar. More like seeing the exact same stone again after being lost in the woods going in circles for hours. Wait, he's gone too quiet. At least finish what you were saying before. "-st."

Stay calm, stay calm, the voice in his head told him in a decidedly not-calm tone. Wait, had she come up just to chat? Or because they were partners? He hadn't been paying enough attention. But there was no way, right? Out of everyone here? There had to be a thousand people out there-

Wait... out there? His neck snaps back to look out at the crowd, frantically scanning for the spiky white hair and oversized obi that was associated with another particular member of this girl's group. Damn it, he's acting way too suspicious.Forcing his eyes off the crowd, he tries to excuse the head jolt away, "Ah, sorry, I think a bug flew in my face. What were you saying?"

He's glad he knows how to throw his voice, though he has to tweak his usual one slightly; she's already heard that one too, after all. It's a desperate bid, but maybe he can convince her he's someone else. A distant cousin or someone unrelated that just happens to have the same features... and same missing eye...

Crap. This is going to suck.

Kinktober Day Thirteen: Oral

Commander Fox x OC (Iriya "Kau'ra" Nahi)

Kinktober 2024 masterlist

Warnings: NSFT (m!receiving oral, semi-public sex, cock warming, implied face fucking?)

Kau'ra truly knows how to distract him.

Fox expects tricks and teasing from Kau'ra, but this? This is something new. The grin on her face when she crawled under his desk should have given him a clue she was up to no good.

Fox tries to keep his breathing steady. It's hard with how sinful Kau'ra's mouth is, made all the worse by the fact she isn't moving. She occasionally does her best to run her tongue along the underside of his shaft, but other than that, she's stayed still. They've been in this position for half an hour. If her jaw hurts, she gives no indication.

Carefully, Fox sets his datapad down. Her not moving somehow makes this worse. It feels as if his patience is being tested this time around, as if she's waiting for him to break first. Normally, he could wait it out but not today. This whole month has been beyond rough, and Fox has almost no patience left. He reaches for another datapad, intent on getting more work done.

Fox swears.

Kau'ra gives him her best innocent eyes despite the fact she just took his dick further into her mouth. She isn't crying, but that would be easy enough to fix. The urge to grab her hair, hold her in place, and use her like she's practically begging him to is strong. Fox's chest heaves as he stares down at her.

“Don't-”

He can't even get the warning out before Kau'ra takes him fully into her mouth. Her nose presses against his public hairs. Fox drops the datapad to the side, forgetting about work in favor of this. One of his hands makes its way to her hair, fingers digging into her thick violet locks. She giggles. The sound is muffled but the vibrations shoot through him.

He can't tell if he loves or hates her being a tease.

Fox tries to be careful when he pulls her head back. Spit covers both of them, and Force help him, it shouldn't be as hot as it is. Kau'ra smirks at him.

“If you don't want this, say so now.” His voice is thick with desire. Kau'ra raises an eyebrow.

“I'll tap on your leg three times if you're actually hurting me.” She counters. Fox's breath stops for a second. “I want this, Fox. I want you to use me.”

Shit. How was he supposed to say no to that?

*drops and runs*

In all seriousness, these drawings were my first attempt at using procreate, so i’m gonna say this could be much better but i am somewhat proud with how that turned out despite the fact i’m not pleased with it, you know?

Anyway enough rambling about my issues with my work. These drawings, like i said are my first on procreate and i wanted to make something meaningful so since this was on my mind from the time i read regeneration by @crithir i decided to finally make this exist.

You could say i’m the type of a person who sees a fic and goes: „is someone gonna make fanart out of this?” and then not wait for an answer

So i gathered some scenes from regeneration and added some more for my own indulgence and by this i mean more azula-iriya relationship cause i love them very much.

You also have captain gamuo and azula (on the fourth) which also is one of my fave thing about this fanfic and that gamuo was there, for like, 2 chapters.

Overall this is my take on iriya’s quote as i think it perfectly captures the whole spirit of this masterpiece

Also please be gentle on me, this is my first time posting my drawings :DDD

HEDONISM DISCOGRAPHY !

hedonism debuted in 2014 with the single CAT&MOUSE, gaining popularity due to their experimental concept and popular faces in the lineup. they came back later that year with the single I'M A BIG GIRL. after the release of their second single, allegations that they were copying 2ne1 began to rise.

taking advantage of the spotlight these allegations gave them, they came back in may of 2015 with I'VE GOT A CRUSH. the girls got their first win, along with five more, with the song. member leiya was absent from promotions due to bullying allegations. after leiya's return, hedonism simultaneously released a korean and japanese mini-album, with LET'S TALK and BOOMERANG as the respective title tracks.

in 2016, the group came back with their first full album and title tracks IT'S A RED LIGHT and AIRPLANE. both tracks were produced by member sora, and it's a red light got four music show wins. a year later, in 2017, they released the single SUPERHUMAN. the track got little to no promotion, however, and slipped under the radar.

after the failure of superhuman, hedonism released SUPER SONIC, earning them eight music show wins and an increase in fan base, finally settling their fluctuating popularity. later that year they released LIKE A TANK, which wasn't promoted on music shows, but became popular nonetheless, even winning song if the year at mama and charting at number one. member iriya was absent from group promotions for unkown reasons.

with their ever growing popularity, hedonism released SO ICONIC, which still remains as their most popular song today. six months after it's release, hedonism released a mini-album and title track NEXT LVL. fans, however, boycotted this comeback as it was produced entirely by member sora. again, iriya was absent from promotions.

iriya finally returned in 2020 and the group had their first ot5 comeback with INCANTATION, soon after promoted the single STEP BACK. while fans were happy to see iriya back, once again fans boycotted the comeback due to step back's lyrics. hedonism tried again with the release of BAD DRACULA. the song charted decently, but didn't get any 1ins.

finally in 2021, the girls came back with the single HEART B-B-BEAT. again, the song charted number one and the girls spent five weeks promoting it and bagged a total of eight music show wins. their most recent comeback was FLIPP!NG A COIN, released november 2021. insiders say the girls are preparing for another comeback.
