🔗: m.list

★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★

"God I feel so stiff." you grunt out, bent over as you stretch your tired hamstrings. The week before this one was complete hell, and since you'd spent so much time in the studio your muscles were in pain.

It was audition week now, the week everyone was so eager for. On audition night you'd either be going out for ice cream with your friends in celebration, or sulking in your bed in disappointment.

You'd been practicing for this role for what felt like your entire life. The role of odette, black swan.. white swan.. whatever you wanna call it.

Some people may say it's basic, or that swan lake is played out- but you absolutely loved it. You remember looking at the older ballerinas as a child and wishing it could be you. Now, it finally was. Well almost- you'd only feel complete if you obtained the role of the black swan. Which you were determined to do.

Two loud claps pull you out of your thoughts, and you immediately stand to your feet when you see that its your instructor. Your friends do the same- just purely out of respect.

Ms. Bahr may be old, but she was never one to let herself be walked all over. Especially not by dancers from her company.

"I'd like you all to meet our guest for the.. day." her voice awkwardly trails off as she gestures toward the door. In walks a man, who looks quite close to your age. He's dressed nicely, & walks in with his arms crossed as he scans over everyone.

Well damn, you knew if he was anything near as stuck up as he looked, you hated him already.

"Hello, i'm mr. jung." he says, setting his bag down but still keeping his eye trained on all of us. When we hear the door slam, everyone's head snaps the opposite way, and we see that Ms. Bahr has excused herself.

Very weird, she was never one to be outside of the room during a practice. During audition week especially.

"I advise that you focus on me, because after this week i'll be officially taking Ms. Bahr's spot as head instructor." gasps, heard all around the room. One of your friends liza stares at you in shock, and you return the look.

People chatter amongst themselves at the news, it was surprising to say the least. Why wouldn't she tell us herself? Why is she letting a random guy take her spot? You had many questions, all that probably would never be answered.

"Now! With that being said-" a sly smile is on his face as he picks up a a paper- studying the sheet for a moment before speaking again. "If your not trying out for the role of the black swan, please step back and continue warming up."

Only four students are left standing, including you. You give a side eye to your main competition here, Jessica bush. You roll your eye at the slight sight of her, you absolutely hated the girl.

It wasn't jealousy- period point blank. It was just her atitude, it was fucking horrible. You wanted the role for yourself of course, but it would feel damn good to beat her and finally put her in her place.

Mr. Jung takes a good look at all of you, locking eyes with you for a split second before moving his eyes on to the girl next to you. He gives a nod of approval before setting down the paper with your names on it.

"I'd like to see you all perform the variation you've been taught yeah?" you hadn't even put your points shoes on yet. You curse yourself for what you're about to have to do, terrible first impression.

"Uhm- i need to get my points shoes.. sir." you itch at your arm at the tension when he looks at you, a annoyed glare on his face.

"Hurry up, go on." he says, allowing you permission to scurry over to your duffel bag.

What a prick.

*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。

"Alright, not too bad." he mutters, slightly clapping as you and the others breathe heavily. This variation always felt much harder when you had someone watching you do it.

"I suppose you're all free to go, come in prepared tomorrow for auditions." there's a collective nod before everyone goes about their own business, talking as they all leave one by one.

By the time you sit down to start taking off your toe pads, the room is already empty besides you and him. It was a little awkward, but you refused to move faster just because he was in here with you.

A pained hiss leaves your lips when you see the bruise forming on your big toe, sighing at the sight of the mark. You don't pay much mind to it, sliding your sock right over it and slipping your shoes on afterward.

"You need new toe pads." your hear a voice behind you, and its him, the new instructor. You give awkward smile as you look up, playfully scoffing at his words. "Yeah, guess i do."

Standing to your feet, you sling your bag over your shoulder- muttering a quiet bye to the man as you begin to walk away. Unfortunately, his hand on your arm prevents you to walk any further.

"I think you're right for the role." he suddenly says, and your eyes widen in surprise. How could he decide that so easily when he's only seen you perform a short variation once? For gods sake he just got here.

You weren't ungreatful though, in fact you were very glad he noticed your efforts.

"Really?" you ask, shock evident in your voice as it grows louder. He nods his head, walking away from you now and back over to his personal belongings. Your right on his toes, assuming that he wants you to follow him.

"How could you know when you've only seen me dance once?" you question him, genuinely confused about what he could be thinking. This was such an important role, he'd be stupid to cast it so easily.

"I have a good eye.." his voice trails off with a suspicious chuckle as his gaze returns to your face. Your features were etched with so much confusion, but he could see you were excited.

"I think you're a beautiful girl.. y/n right?" your smile slowly fades, sensing the weird tone in his voice. "Ehm.. yeah" the excitement empties from your body when he stalks towards you, eyes refusing to leave yours.

He circles you as if you were prey, arms crossed the same way they were when he walked into the room. "Your old enough to know.. sometimes in life we have to do things to get what we want."

What the fuck was he saying? Your face scrunched up in annoyance and confusion, you just hoped this wasn't him flirting with you.

You let out a sigh when his cold fingers trail down your bare arm, feeling his body heat as he stands close behind you. "I can get you that role." you feel his lips on the back of your neck and it makes you want to throw up and disgust.

He barely even knew you! And even if he did- it's out of the question and inappropriate. "I can get you that role." he repeats again, only this time he presses his obvious boner into your ass.

That's when you move, picking up your bag that you hadn't even noticed fell to the ground. "Are you fucking insane?!" you shout, and he looks at you as if you were the one who did something wrong.

"Your disgusting!" you scream again, voice echoing through the room. You could only hope everyone had left the building as you rush out of the room.

"You'll regret that." he yells after you.

Fuck off.

*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。

AUDITION DAY

The week had went by in a flash, and tryouts had come much sooner than you thought they would.

After the situation with your new instructor, you avoided him like the plague- even switching directions when you'd see him walking around the building. You noticed him staring at times, but you did your best to ignore it.

You hadn't told anyone about what happened either, not even your closest friends. What you didn't want was for it to effect your audition process, not after you worked so hard for this very moment.

The voice of your friend lila causes you to zone back in, & you can't help the smile that falls over your face when you see her walking towards you with flowers.

"Lila.." you say, giving her a big hug before she can even hand the flowers over. "You didn't have to.. i didn't even get you anything.." you mutter, pulling out of the hug with a saddened look on your face.

You appreciated her at times like these, and sometimes even felt like a shitty friend when she'd go out of her way to do special things for you. If you ever lost her you think you'd literally spiral out of control.

"Good luck on your audition." she says, her face full of joy as she gives a comforting squeeze to your arm.

You don't get the chance to thank her because the door opens, and in comes Mr.Jung . Everyone stands when he arrives, the same way they would when Ms. Bahr would enter.

Now that you know the real him, it kind of sucks that everyone likes him so much. It also sucks that you have to keep what happened to yourself for now, but you planned to confess as soon as auditions were over.

"Alright everyone, we'll begin black & white swan auditions now- so if that's not you please push to the back of the room." Again, four students are left standing- only this time it's much more nerve racking.

You were used to the whole class watching auditions happen, but this was different. You'd been waiting for this for years... if you fucked up now you don't think you'd ever forgive yourself.

"Ready?" he asks, staring at all of you as you spread out and get into your starting position.

Ready as you'll ever be.

~~~~

Needless to say the audition went great. You don't remember messing up even once, and even a couple other students came up to your afterwards just to tell you how good your audition looked.

You watched the rest of the auditions in excitement and confidence, happy that you'd done so good. Usually, you'd let jessica's little glares towards you ruin your mood- but not today.

An entire hour passes before auditions finally finish, and you're all sent into another room. There's chattering amongst everyone, different talk of who they think will make black swan.

You try your best to ignore it, sticking your headphones in for some extra noise. You get a nice thirty minutes of relaxation before it's finally time.

Ms. Bahr makes a appearance just to tell everyone results are posted- and as soon as she says it everyone's rushing out of the room. Your the last one to leave, taking a few deep breaths as you slowly make your way to the poster.

And then- your excitement crumbles when you see mr. jung and jessica hugging at the end of the hall. No way, no no no no no. Your footsteps get faster at the sight, and you finally come to a anxious hault when you see the list.

{Black/White swan: Jessica bush}

You wanted to cry when you read it, but you couldn't. At least not when your instructor was looking at you with the cruelest grin on his face.

He did this on purpose.

You danced beautifully, no one could tell you any different. You weren't being stuck up, but you genuinely felt that today was the best time you'd ever performed it. Your hard work felt like a waste, all because you rejected his advances.

You went home utterly disappointed in yourself, wishing that you could turn back the time and tell him yes. You'd do anything for that role, literally anything.

That's when you found yourself pondering your options, and finally- you came up with a solution.

*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。o○*:.。..。.。

THE NEXT DAY

You couldn't believe you were doing this. You'd stood in front of your instructors door for a good five minutes before finally gathering the courage to even knock.

He welcomed you in as if nothing had happened, a smile on his face as he gestures for you to sit down. You obviously sit with no complaints, not wanting to piss him off when you were already about to ask for something huge.

"What brings you in?" his tone is very much condescending, and you have to bite you tongue to prevent a scowl from plastering on your face.

"I..I wanna take your offer." you say quietly, foot constantly tapping against the floor as you await a response. He ticks his tongue as he looks at you, before bursting into a fit of laughter.

"Don't you think it's too late?" he mentions, pointing his long finger to the paper on his table. You lean over to look at it, seeing the sheet of paper with jessica's name on it. It makes you want to throw up.

"With all due respect sir, you did this to spite me." you don't bite you tongue any longer, you know the motive behind this. He was a cruel man, but oh so clever.

He chuckles at your words, shaking his head as he stands from his chair. He slowly makes his way to the door, twisting the lock and then turning back to face you. "You really want that role huh?"

You hated this, you hated that he had the upper hand. But you also knew this was your decision, and you didn't have to do this. You had every right and the will to walk right out of this room and deal with the fact you won't ever be black swan.

Except, you didn't want to do that.

"I do.." you mutter, gaze now at your feet as he comes closer to you to tilt your chin upwards. He looks at you with fake pitty, somewhat happy that you'd come crawling back to him.

"Get on your knees." he commands, and you oblige him without another word. He licks his lips to moiston them at the sight of you, ready to pleasure him and get exactly what you've always wanted.

"You know what to do, you want the role?" he asks, and your hands shake with anxiety as you nod your head. "Then take it."

Alright, you could do this. Give him head, easy peasy.. right?

Your shaky hands are evidence of your nervousness as you undo the zipper on his pants, and when you see the bulge in his boxers you question why he's already hard? What was he doing before you got here?

When tuck your hands into the waistband of his boxers, he sighs at the feeling of your cold fingers on his skin. You try your best to not look at him when his length finally pops out, red tip right in front of your eyes.

He was bigger than you thought he'd be, but it was no wonder that he had no shame when coming onto you the first time around.

You didn't even realize you were gawking at it until he finally said something. "Scared?" the question infuriates you, and causes you to put the length of him in your mouth immediately.

You weren't scared of him. Fuck no.

He groans at the feeling of your mouth wrapped tight around him, keeping a tight grip on his desk as you bob your head up and down.

He smirks at the way your making him so messy, not caring that your getting spit all over his pelvis and even in his small happy trail. "Fuck- sluttin' me out aren't you?" You ignore his words, set on the fact this was purely for your role.

You wanted it, bad.

You pop his dick out of your mouth with heavy breaths, now swirling your tongue around his tip. You trace every part of it, the veins, the tip, everything. You can tell he likes it, because he finally allows his head to lean back.

You couldn't believe yourself, all of your previous fear had vanished from your body. Hoseok could tell too, because you were sucking the life out of him.

"Shit, just wanna bend you over-" you moan around his dick, not able to speak since you've shoved his dick right back down your throat. You're gagging now, but you don't pull away- determined to get what you wanted out of this.

Your hand is covered in saliva, all from you jerking off what you can take inside of your mouth. Or what you thought you couldn't take- because soon both of his hands move snug to the back of your head for more leverage.

He fucks your mouth with a punishing pace, smirking when he hears your little muffled whimpers and gags. "Love that shit- gonna look so pretty on stage." his words wouldve made you smile if your mouth wasn't so full- it only confirmed that the role was no longer jessicas.

It belonged to you, and you only.

"Where you want me to cum, hm?" he pulls out of your mouth breifly so you can speak, slapping the wet tip on your messy cheek. "On my tits- please."

You were way too into this, hurriedly lowering your top right under your breasts. They sit perfectly, and they look even better when he finally rubs himself to a orgasm, his milky white release coating your hard nipples.

"God- so fuckin hot." the words leaving his mouth sounded foreign, and you couldn't believe you were wet. You no longer denied the fact that you enjoyed what had just happened, it was a win win.

When you go to clean yourself off, he stops you- taking it upon himself to lift your top right over your still cum covered breasts. "Gonna go home with my cum on you, that'll finish up the deal."

You go home happy, going to sleep excited for the upcoming weeks as you were officially the black swan. Jessica on the other hand was feeling so many emotions at once. She was angry, dissapoonted, and overall confused.

She wondered why her role had been snatched from her and given to someone who didn't even deserve it. She'd done everything she could for that role.. including fuck her instructor.

Hoseok had promised her the same fate, that he'd give her the role regardless of her audition as long as she gave him some pussy. So she did so, without thinking of the consequences.

He'd played the both of you, and neither of you had any idea.

Watching the bootleg of the Korean production of Legally Blonde The Musical, and Jessica Jung (of SNSD/Girls Generation fame) is amazing in it! 💖👏

Plus, they've changed some moments in the show for localisation reasons, and while I can't fully understand what is being said (due to a lack of English subtitles), the Korean version of Chip On My Shoulder has Emmett giving Elle his jacket and something to cover her knees/legs (as a fan of K-Pop etc., I know that it's well-known that female K-Pop idols are given blankets etc. to cover their knees/legs when in TV studios etc. to protect from the cold - I could totally see that becoming a larger cultural thing for guys to do for girls)

Plus, during the Christmas part of the song, Emmett wears Elle's bunny ears?! 😍👏

After Elle wins the trial, when Elle and Emmett have their hug, it's actually an extended moment, where the rest of the stage is in darkness, and they stay in the hug for at least 20 seconds - Emmett even hugs Elle tighter after a few moments! They pull away just enough to gaze into each other's eyes... and then Warner shows up like in the other versions.

I just can't get over how sweet the relationship between Elle and Emmett is in the Korean version 💖

► BIOGRAPHY

TW; family dysfunction

When Anastasia was born, her name was given as a path of life. Her mother having had been one of the most famous ballerinas for the Russian Ballet, it only made sense to give her daughter the name of one of the most sought-after roles for dancers. At the time, her parents had no idea just how big of a force she was going to be in the ballet realm. As others took steps, Anastasia took leaps. She was quickly the favorite in every studio she walked into, and she also managed to be the top of her class in academics as well. Even when making the switch from a public school to a prestigious performing arts school when she was in middle school, Anastasia never faltered in the changes in her life. From Clara in The Nutcracker, to Odette and Odile in Swan Lake, her talent well proceeded her and her mother gracefully handed on the baton of the ballet legacy when she retired. Though, Anastasia loved ballet; the discipline and well as the freedom, she also began to struggle when her mother retired. It was then, that she wasn't dancing for herself anymore, but living a life her mother could live vicariously through. At least she still had figure skating. Figure skating was something that was fully Anastasia's. Even when she was first competing, she loved the adrenaline rush that came from being on the ice. After the induction into the NYC Ballet, after touring headlining shows and juggling a social life and her figure skating, Anastasia told her mother that she wanted to pursue a higher education in mass communications. She received a full-ride scholarship (though she didn't need it) for an accelerated program in journalism and mass communications because of her GPA and outstanding SAT scores to NYU. Her father was the one who wouldn't let her pass it up. Suddenly, Anastasia's name is plastered all over the papers when her competition broke their ankle. Now having to compete in a placement that was given to her on a technicality, Anastasia is battling the negative headlines whilst trying to clean her family name. Ana is currently residing in Beverly Park try to get some of the pressure from the press off of her.

► DEEP DIVE

Anastasia is a force to be reckoned with; She's not afraid to speak her mind, and competition runs in her veins. If she wants something, she goes and gets it, and may no one get stuck in her path. Though she can be intense in these ways, she also has a warmth to her that draws people in. Elegant, soft, and almost whimsical - Anastasia can never truly fit in anywhere. If anything, she sticks out like a sore thumb. This aspect about her either makes her well-loved or disliked (some may write her off as pretentious or snobby), depending on the person. She loves art history due to her father being an art historian and growing up listening to all sorts of foreign fairytales and mythology. She's a hopeless romantic, but tends to self sabotage relationships. She enjoys dancing in the rain and making life cinematic at any and every opportunity. She's genuinely kind, and at the end of the day she'll make anyone laugh without knowing she's being funny. She's just drawn as a villian but has such a soft girl vibe.She's just guarded to a default due to coming from old money on her father's side and experiencing people trying to use her/them to get to the fortune.

I love Simon Pegg and completely understand the impulse to give him credit for “saving” Star Trek because he’s the highest-profile member of the Beyond’s creative team and was involved with a lot of the marketing and press and was also the one who addressed the Sulu controversy. But filmmaking is essentially collaborative and there’s a long history in the film industry of giving one person (usually a white man) creative credit for a film and excluding the rest of the crew from the conversation, especially if those crew members are women or people of color. 

So please don’t forget to also thank Pegg’s co-writer, Doug Jung, and the film’s director, Justin Lin. Because, for all we know, they were just as responsible for Beyond, if not more so, and they also happen to be Asian men.

Jessica Jung x Male Reader

2238 words

categories: smut, swallowing

Note: a super quick oneshot because Jessica is hot

You surprised your girlfriend Jessica one day at her and your company, SM Entertainment. She was preparing for a comeback with her group members. Most of the security and staff at SM knew you since you were a record producer, only a select few actually knew you as Jessica’s significant other. You smiled at the various people who walked by, even high fiving others you have grown to be close with.

“Hey, you” a woman behind you said. You turned around and saw her. Bae Joohyun. A close noona of yours who was preparing to debut soon.

“Hi noona” you said. “Do you know where this practice room is?” you handed Joohyun a piece of paper with instructions.

“Of course. I just came from there” she said.

“Hi brother!” you were swept into a bear hug as your bones were being crushed. Only one person was capable of being affectionate while slowly killing you.

Kang Seulgi.

“Sister, I’m dying” you moaned out. Seulgi blushes and lets go as color returns to your face.

“How’s the debut preparations going?” you asked them.

“Good! We should be debuting soon” Seulgi said as she hugged you.

“They’ve narrowed it down to four of us” Joohyun replied. “They’re thinking of possibly adding another person in the future”

You and Seulgi listened attentively as she explained how the group was supposed to debut the previous year but it was pushed back. You looked at your watch.

“Oh shoot, I gotta go. It really was nice catching up with you two” you said as you removed Seulgi’s embrace. She pouted, pretending to be hurt.

“Don’t give me that face, sister” you said.

“But I miss you! You’re always too busy for us” she whined.

“Drop by my studio sometime. I’ll have a song ready for you guys” you said as you began to leave.

“Wait!”

You turn around and Joohyun holds onto your shoulder and lowers it, tiptoeing so that she can kiss you on the cheek.

“Come by the practice room sometime too. The other girls want to meet you” she said softly as she takes Seulgi and drags her away. Seulgi was stunned, waving goodbye at you frantically until she followed along.

You reached the room that was written down on the piece of paper. Sighing deeply, you knock on the door. The music playing inside pauses as someone opens the door.

“Oh, hey you! We were just finished with practice.” Hwang Miyoung greets you with an equally bright normal and eye smile as she pulls you in for a hug. The other members stand up and see what all the commotion is about.

You let go of Miyoung as the other members push her aside and give you a hug as well. All, except one.

After greeting the last of the members, she looks back at you in shock. She runs towards you and knocks the wind out of you. Her legs wrap around your waist as she begins sobbing.

“I miss you so much!” she cried as your clothes began to be stained with her tears.

“I miss you too, princess” you said as you stroke the back of her head gently.

A few of the members pretend to vomit while one of them hits them on their upper arms hard.

“We’ll leave you guys alone” one of the taller members said to you as she placed a hand on her shoulder. Eventually, all of them left the room only leaving you and her.

“Stop crying, Sooyeon. You look ugly” you said with a laugh.

She hit your chest as you both stared in front of the mirror.

“You’re adorable” you said to her as you kissed her cheek.

Jessica chose to wear a simple outfit today: black yoga pants, a pink sports bra, comfortable nikes and a balenciaga cap. A faint layer of sweat glistened from the lights above.

“I’m sorry I’ve been so busy, babe” she said to you as she leaned into your embrace. “Our comeback is really soon”

“You know I always understand. I am the one who produced this track, remember?”

You fixed Jessica’s hair as she turned around and kissed you softly on the lips.

She gets up soon afterwards and goes to the door, locking it. Once she turns around, her expression changed.

“It’s a good thing they left” she said.

“What do you mean?”

She doesn’t reply as she pushes you softly onto the mirror. She captured your lips, kissing you fiercely as her hands began to unbutton your shirt.

“Why don’t we stay…” she said naughtily as she bit her lips and kneeled down, beginning to unbuckle your belt.

“We might get caught” you said nervously.

She removed your pants and boxers as she looked up at you. “That’s what makes this so exciting...”

Blood rushed through your body as you looked on with excitement at the sight of Jessica removing your pants. The room was completely empty, nothing would be able to cover you both if someone had keys to the room. She didn’t care though, as she seduced you with an innocent expression that was anything but.

“You seem turned on by this, babe” she said as she began nuzzling her cheek against your rock hard cock. Her nose brushed against your base  as she kissed your underside.

“This is so bad” you moaned.

“And yet your cock is so hard. You know how much I love sucking it” she said softly as her tongue slid from your balls all the way up to your tip.

“Oh shit… that feels good...” you exhaled.

She teased your tip, gently drawing circles with her tongue as she stroked your shaft and ran her puckered lips up and down its length. She began licking up as much precum leaking out of you as she could.

“It’s always so yummy…” she said as she took your balls into her mouth. “These feel so, so full”

Jessica covered your entire cock in her saliva, establishing it was no longer yours, but hers. “Do you want me to suck your cock now, babe?” she said seductively.

“P-please. Please suck my dick” you groaned.

“Be a good boy and don’t make too much noise okay? We don’t want others hearing and coming inside” She said as she parts her soft, wet lips with your cock.

“Holy shit…” you cried as she began sucking you.

“That’s not being quiet, baby” she said as her tongue swirled around your head.

Jessica began sucking your dick harder, wrapping her lips fully as she took you down all the way to the base. Your body began to give out as you were hopelessly under her spell.

You looked up at the ceiling, fearing you would cum if you saw her.

“Is there something on the ceiling prettier than I am, baby?” she asked you as your cock was being stroked roughly. You gather the willpower to look down and see Jessica smack her face, her spit coating it each time she did so.

“You’re prettier. You’re the prettiest girl in the world” you moaned.

“I am, aren’t I? Now be a good boy and keep watching me suck your dick” she said as she slapped herself a few more times while stroking you.

She enjoyed hearing you moan and gasp from breath because of her as she roughly sucks on your balls, giving them more attention.

“Babe. Can you facefuck me, please?” her sweet tone betraying the lewd words it released.

You were aroused at this point. Seeing your girlfriend on her knees, dick in her mouth. Her being sweaty from an intense dance practice session with her members. It was all too much for you. You held onto her hair and made a makeshift ponytail, bobbing her head up and down roughly as your cock reached the back of her throat. Jessica no longer had any signs of a gag reflex from how many times she took you in her mouth.

She held onto your thighs harder as she took an intense pounding. The sounds of saliva collecting in her mouth and slowly dripping onto your thighs and balls were music to your ears as you roughly dirtied Jessica Jung. After pushing her all the way down to your base a few times, she tapped on your thighs and pushed herself off.

She began to breathe through her nose, not wanting your cock to escape. She gargled on it as you fucked her mouth more, watching as Jessica placed a hand inside her yoga pants and began to rub herself. A small pool was beginning to form on her crotch. Every time Jessica tried pulling away from you, you ignored; pushing her deeper. If she wanted to get her mouth fucked, you were going to give it to her.

You finally let her breathe several minutes later. Jessica was coughing as you grabbed her and began sucking on her neck. The air condition in the room was useless from how sweaty you both were becoming. Her body was warm to the touch. You grabbed her ass through her yoga pants. They felt so soft as you slapped her ass harshly. Her ass rippled because of this, letting out a scream from her and echoing throughout the room.

“Babe, I’m so dirty” she whined.

“I don’t care” you said, pushing her face down against the mirror and pulling her pants down. You blew warm air on her pussy as her body began to tingle. You held onto Jessica’s arms as you dived in, burying your face in her pussy. You tasted all of her juices, she was a leaking mess. You kissed and licked every inch of surface you could reach. Her natural smell turned you on even more.

“You’re pushing me into you, babe. That doesn’t sound like someone who claims that they’re dirty”

“I’m so gross” she cried. “But your tongue is just so good”

As you ate Jessica out, she cried out in ecstasy. She stopped grabbing onto the yoga mat for support and instead grabbed your hair and pushed you deeper. Her mouth opened in pleasure as she saw you through the reflection. With one final lick, you removed your head and got behind her, slapping her clit several times with your tip. You both moaned in pleasure as the initial penetration sinks your cock inside her.

Jessica made eye contact with you through the mirror as you both watched her get fucked. You held onto her arms from behind as you began thrusting into her faster and faster.

“I love getting fucked!” she yelled. “Even more so when I watch you fuck me”

You began pumping into her harder, her soaked pussy making it extremely easy for you to slide in and out.

“Oh my god…” she screamed loudly. “Harder! Fuck me harder!”

You released her arms, moving your hands onto her hips as you held them tightly. You watched as Jessica’s sex face was a sight to behold. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head as her open mouth began to moan incoherent words.

Her screams echoed throughout the entire dance room. You were sure people could hear from the floors above and below.

“You’re too fucking loud!” you said as you smacked her ass, roughly fucking her as the sounds of skin slapping against skin continued to fill the room. All of your senses were heightened, the thought of ruining a place used by almost everyone in the company turned both of you on even more.

“I’m coming” you moaned, nearing your limit.

“Ahhh”

“Babe. I’m coming” you said again.

“In my mouth” was all she managed to weakly say as you continued fucking her.

Your heart began to thump faster as Jessica screamed loudly from your sudden forcefulness. Thrusting into her several more times, you manage to pull out just in time as she gets on her knees and sucks your cock once more.

“Babe-”

Your orgasm rushes down at once, from your head to your toes as they curl from the intense sensation. You push Jessica’s head down all the way to your base as you cum into her mouth in long, steady pulses.

“Holy fuck…” you quietly said, your legs beginning to feel weak.

Jessica swallowed your entire load. She had put you on a diet which she said would make you cum more and taste sweeter. You weren’t sure about the taste part, but it definitely did make you cum more. As your orgasm winded down and Jessica’s head was no longer being pushed in, she released your cock as saliva began to drip onto the floor. She looked up at you and stuck out her tongue, showing you there were no traces leftover. She smiled sweetly as she gave your tip one final smooch.

“How hot was that?” she said as you both began to gather your clothes. “Sucking my boyfriend’s cock after dance practice”

“That was so intense” you said. “I never had an orgasm that felt that good”

“There’s more of that where that came from, mister mister” she said as her finger poked your chest. You slapped her ass loudly before pulling her into your embrace.

“Hey babe”

“Yeah?”

“You’re always talking about someone watching us right?”

“What about it?”

“Why don’t we let someone watch… and then join us?” you asked.

“Are you sure?”

“I know someone… I think you’ll like her”

Dune 2021 Canada, Hungary, Jordan, Norway, United Arab Emirates, United States of America Abenteuer Film von Eric Roth und mit Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson. Die Neuverfilmung des gleichnamigen, populären Sci-Fi-Romans von Frank Herbert. Aus der Vorlage erzählt Dune die komplexe Geschichte einer gefallenen Adelsfamilie und ihres Versuchs, die Kontrolle über den Wüstenplaneten Arrakis zu erlangen. Und über dessen kostbarste Exportware, das Spice, eine seltene bewusstseinserweiternde Droge. Doch sie wird von einem galaktischen Imperator betrogen, und Paul Atreides, der junge Sohn des Herrschers dieser Familie, muss sich ins Ödland flüchten und mit den dort heimischen Nomadenstämmen verbünden, um schließlich zurückzuschlagen.

Dune 2021 – (Details) Kinostart: 16.09.2021 Dauer: 155 Min Genre: Abenteuer, Drama, Science Fiction Sterne : Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin Direktor : Eric Roth Qualität : 4K ULTRA HD Produktionsland: USA Filmverleih: Warner Dune 2021 – (Filmhandlung und Hintergrund) Denis Villeneuves Neuverfilmung von David Lynchs ‘Der Wüstenplanet�� aus dem Jahr 1984, basierend auf der Romanreihe ‘Dune’ von Frank Herbert. In einer weit entfernten Zukunft entbrennt zwischen den Adelshäusern der Atreides und der Harkonnen der Kampf um das wertvolle ‘Spice’, eine bewusstseinserweiternde Droge, die den menschlichen Geist zur Höchstform auflaufen lässt und die benötigt wird, um durchs All zu reisen. Das ‘Spice’ kann nur an einem einzigen Ort, dem Wüstenplaneten Akkaris, auch bekannt als Dune, abgebaut werden. Ursprünglich wurden die Harkonnen damit beauftragt die Ressource zu ernten, doch der Emperor sprach einen neuen Befehl aus und übergab Herzog Leto Artreides (Oscar Isaac) die Mission. Gemeinsam mit seiner Geliebten Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson) und seinem Sohn und Nachfolger Paul (Timothée Chalamet) reist er nach Akkaris. Dort werden sie nicht nur von tödlicher Hitze, sondern auch von gefährlichen Feinden empfangen. Kann Paul sein Volk und die dort lebenden Fremen vor der großen Gefahr schützen? Dune 2021 – (Besetzung) Timothée Chalamet: Paul Atreides Rebecca Ferguson: Lady Jessica Oscar Isaac: Herzog Leto Atreides Josh Brolin: Gurney Halleck Stellan Skarsgård: Baron Wladimir Harkonnen Dave Bautista: Glossu ‘Die Bestie’ Rabban Zendaya: Chani David Dastmalchian: Piter De Vries Charlotte Rampling: Ehrwürdige Mutter Mohiam Jason Momoa: Duncan Idaho Javier Bardem: Stilgar Chang Chen: Dr. Yueh Babs Olusanmokun: Jamis Stephen Henderson: Thufir Hawat Sharon Duncan-Brewster: Dr. Liet Kynes Dune 2021 – (Hintergründe, Kinostart) Seit der Erscheinung der ‘Dune’-Romanreihe von Frank Herbert in den 1960ern versuchten sich viele Regisseure und Studios daran, den Science-Fiction-Klassiker filmisch umzusetzen. Einige scheiterten bereits in einer frühen Produktionsphase, manche Projekte hingen mehrere Jahre in der Schwebe, David Lynch schaffte es 1984 dann zur ersten Spielfilmadaption. Sowohl bei Kritikern als auch beim Publikum rief der Film gemischte Gefühle hervor, Anfang 2000 folgten die TV-Miniserien ‘Dune’ und ‘Children of Dune’, welche auch nur mäßig Erfolg hatten. So tritt Denis Villeneuve (‘Blade Runner 2049’) ein schweres Erbe an, entsprechend viel Zeit räumt er sich für das Projekt ein, denn der Film sei ihm eine Herzensangelegenheit. Villeneuve strebe nichts Geringeres an, als eine Art ‘Star Wars für Erwachsene’ zu machen, schließlich seien viele Motive aus der beliebten Science-Fiction-Saga auf ‘Dune’ zurückzuführen (via Fandom). Sein Art Director Tom Brown zog gar einen Vergleich mit dem ‘Herr der Ringe’-Franchise. Für das Drehbuch arbeitete der frankokanadische Regisseur mit dem Oscar-prämierten Autor Eric Roth (‘Forrest Gump’) und Jon Spaihts (‘Doctor Strange’) zusammen. Laut Villeneuve ist ein weiterer ‘Dune’-Film in Planung, außerdem ist er an der Entwicklung einer neuen Serie namens ‘Dune: Sisterhood’ beteiligt. Aber das ist noch Zukunftsmusik. Welchen Eindruck die ersten zehn Minuten des Sci-Fi-Epos hinterlassen, erfahrt ihr im ‘Dune’-Bericht. Der geplante Kinostart im Dezember 2020 musste aufgrund des Coronavirus weichen.

Should I PlagueWatch It?: Series Finale!

In March 2020, I inaugurated on this blog what I said "may but hopefully won't(?) become an ongoing series": Should I PlagueWatch It? Basically, it took the thing Jill and I do best -- watch TV -- and offered our recommendations for what you should watch to get you through the pandemic.

Over a year later, Should I PlagueWatch It? did, indeed, become a series. In addition to the first entry -- HBO's Avenue 5 -- I also did entries on Gentleman Jack, Marvel's Runaways, Alpha House, Never Have I Ever, Jelle's Marble Runs, Making the Cut, and a "roundup" post that covered Billions, Insecure, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Ultimate Tag, Titan Games, and Holey Moley.

But now, it feels we're finally closing the chapter on the pandemic. Jill and I are vaccinated, my parents came to visit this past weekend, we're seeing friends, the CDC says we can go unmasked. It seems, alas, that all good things must come to an end. And while the pandemic itself is certainly not a good thing, some of us may be feeling a bit bittersweet at the prospect of being expected to interact with other humans rather than sit around and watch Netflix all day.

So to wrap up the series, one more omnibus "quick hits" review of all the shows we PlagueWatched that haven't yet gotten their own entry.

* * * Mild spoilers * * *

Blown Away

Reality TV can be wonderful in its formulaicness. Take a random hobby, find ten people who are pretty good at it, dangle $50,000 in front of them, and bang, you've got a competition show. This one's about glass blowing. I know nothing about glass blowing, but the competitors seem pretty talented to me?

I was impressed at how versatile a medium glass is. I worried when I started the show that the challenges would end up being pretty one note (how many vases can one make?). But the competitors actually made a lot of really cool material!

There's a lot of running and swinging and flailing given that they're handling molten-hot material.  It stressed me out. Also, apparently "glory holes" are an essential part of glass blowing, and nobody made a joke about it.

This show is definitely more in the "everyone likes and supports one another" mold of reality TV compared to the "constant cat fights and 'I'm not here to make friends'" mold. No judgment, just letting you know what to expect.

Sexify

A Netflix series about a young college student with no sexual experience who decides she needs to develop an app to optimize the female orgasm. It's not the most innovative concept, but it works well enough.

Of the core trio, my favorite character is Paulina -- the religious Catholic best-friend who is having (bad) sex with her fiancé and feels guilty about even that sin. She does a lot of great expressive work and has some superb character beats (her popcorn addiction -- just casually munching away while watching porn). 

Speaking of Paulina, at the outset I told Jill she looked like someone and Jill's first guess was "a plainer Emily Blunt" (that's not an insult -- who isn't plainer than Emily Blunt?). It wasn't who I was thinking of, and soon I realized the answer was like six women I've known over the years. So maybe "plainer Emily Blunt" is a more common face than I realized?

The show is in Polish (with subtitles), and I'm very proud that I managed to identify the language as Polish right away (I do not speak a word of Polish).

The musical motif for the show combines one of the catchiest guitar riffs I've ever heard with a sample loop of a woman's sex moans. It fits the show perfectly, but it's a bit awkward to listen to on its own.

Wandavision

You shouldn't need me to tell you about this show. It's good, but my hottest take -- and I stand by it -- is that as an exploration of grief Never Have I Ever does it better and it's not close.

Can we concede that Wanda is the unambiguous villain of the show? With only the barest shift in perspective, Wanda could be the nemesis with an admittedly sympathetic motive. To some extent, I think the show was far too forgiving of her. Motives aside, how different is she from Kilgrave on Jessica Jones?

Poor Emma Caulfield. So much build-up for her character, and it's only a head-fake.

Space Force

I liked it. It's not in the most elite of the elite comedies, and maybe that's the standard when Steve Carrell is the lead, but it was quite funny. That said, I keep on almost forgetting that I watched it, and have no substantive commentary to offer. So take from that what you will.

AOC lookalike alert (the character even gets the nickname AYC -- "Angry Young Congresswoman")!

Mythic Quest

I love that Ubisoft is actually involved in the show (which is set at a game studio producing a popular massively multiplayer online RPG).

Surprisingly, given my love affair with Community, Danny Pudi is one of the least interesting characters on the show.

The actress who plays Poppy isn't the very strongest (though she's improving), but Poppy herself may be my favorite character. Of course, everyone knows I'm a sucker for an Australian accent.

The show has some great characters in side parts who don't get enough attention, like Sue the community manager and Carol the HR director. Also, Aparna Nancherla has a small recurring role in the first season and apparently doesn't come back for season two? I don't get why she keeps getting sidelined like this -- she's funnier than the rest of the cast put together.

Ted Lasso

Good, sweet, endearing, fun. British soccer comedies with heart are a winner for me (Bend It Like Beckham, anyone?).

Ted's estranged wife is played by the same actress who plays Linda in Better Off Ted. This was very strange, though admittedly I'm probably the only person who cared enough about Better Off Ted to notice or care.

Lupin

Dashing gentleman thief who's always a step ahead of his adversaries, except maybe the one nemesis who actually can match him step for step in a constant cat-and-mouse game? Look, it's a cliché for a reason. I'm not going to say Lupin breaks the mold, but it certainly is a well-crafted entry into the mold.

If there is anything innovative, it's how Lupin particularly leverages stereotypes about race and class to maneuver more freely in certain spaces (e.g., he can smuggle himself into prison because the guards can't tell him apart from another inmate -- sad commentary, but useful for Lupin!).

It did do something I hate, which is release "half a season" and just leave the audience hanging at the end. Maybe it was the pandemic's fault, but one could really feel its incompleteness.

Kim's Convenience

Of the Canadian shows I've been watching, I'd say Working Moms (not in this post because it is pre-pandemic) is the stronger of the two. But this is fun as well.

It just got cancelled, unfortunately depriving it of the chance to wrap up its single greatest storyline (that's been ongoing since season one). That's a real, real shame.

Simu Liu as Jung is the latest iteration of the Jason Mendoza trend of "dumb male Asian hottie leads". I guess it's a blow against stereotypes?

Pastor Nina also could be an AOC lookalike. I think the show struggled a bit to draw a bead on her character.

Legomasters

I actually mentioned this show in my post about Jelle's Marble Runs, but it is such a joy to watch. I can't wait for season two, which is dropping very soon. For pure, simple, uncomplicated happiness, Legomasters beats out everything on this list.
