#kasey & kent.

[c0zys]

he shouldn't have done it . he could have driven right by . right by the restaurant , and right by the man's place . and yet , he is standing here outisde his door , with a bag of food . what if he doesn't like a normal burger , or prefers mozzarella cheese to cheddar on his burgers ? or onions - you know , this was a mistake . he returns to grab the bag from where he had left it at his door step . yet , he lingers still . maybe he should just knock and hand it over . but then that could be a gross overstep - maybe the night before wasn't brought up in the texts earlier because kent didn't want to bring it up . he awkwardly hangs between the steps and the door , staring at the bag with a heavy sigh . then holding his breath , then another sigh . " you bloody - you're an idiot . just leave - no , you're not leaving a random burger , that's just weird . " he's muttering to himself , while figners are making confetti of the brown paper sac .

an enthusiastic virgin and an experienced, possessive male plot. give me muse a thigh riding muse b because she isn’t ready to fuck him yet. a lot of ’you’re doing so good, kitten’ and ’just like that baby.’ the slow burn surrounding muse a’s first time. muse b taking care of her the morning after, tracing her hickeys in front of the mirror while they’re both still nude. let me be muse a, i’ll love you forever!

there was no keeping the athlete from the ice , even as pain coursed through his body with every skate and drill he had himself doing . unable to finish a game , blame was put on his shoulders despite the team finishing with a win . he had found his way back to the rink not long after being released from the medic . bruised , physically and his ego , but it doesn't stop him from lacing up his skates and losing all sense and track of time . his shoulder and hip where he had taken the force of the boards throb as though he was being throwned into the walls all over again . he is too caught up to hear , or see , any one else enter the rink .

[starry-hughes]

This is an unhinged question

Hat does each au girl like to do for their man when they had a really good game ???

got a little unhinged

mom is very much a firm believer in riding quinn after a good game

kendall usually blows petey and when she has a good game he goes down on her

charlie knows trevor well enough that sometimes he isn’t in the spicy mood even after a good game so she just lets him lead them and it typically ends with doggy

kasey is typically a pillow princess but when mackie has a good game she’s like “i will do all the work!”

eden loves to give matt full control. he loves it. even though she’s pretty tall he can still toss her around like she is a feather

caroline likes to take kent in the shower and get a little hot and steamy in there

right now obviously with sawyer being 8 months pregnant they are limited but quinn does enjoy the handjobs

[taking-shots]

i will not be taking criticism at this time

Take a gander at Joe R. Lansdale’s new Hap and Leonard book OF MICE AND MINESTRONE

A brand-new Hap and Leonard series collection chock full of Joe R. Lansdale’s inimitable blend of humor, mayhem, and insight, OF MICE AND MINESTRONE delivers never-before-seen stories, a selection of the boys’ favorite recipes from Kasey Lansdale, and an introduction from New York Times bestselling crime author Kathleen Kent.

Hap Collins looks just like a good ol’ boy. But from his misspent youth on, his best compatriot is Leonard Pine, who is black, gay, and the ultimate outsider. Inseparable friends, Hap and Leonard climb into the boxing ring, visit each other’s families, get in bar fights, and just go fishing—all the while confronting racists, righting wrongs, and eating a whole lot of delicious food.

So pull up a seat and sit a spell, and let master storyteller Joe R. Lansdale regale you with a new passel of tales about the unlikeliest duo East Texas has to offer.

Joe has decided to shelve the boys for a bit so this is the last Hap and Leonard for the foreseeable future. Or at least until Hap starts whispering to Joe again.

Available at all finer outlets in March 2020!

Tag Tuesday - First Fic

I thought it was only fitting that the first Tag Tuesday should feature the "My First Fic" and its related tags.

I think, in retrospect, writers tend to look back on our first works and cringe, but I also think there is a lot of love, joy, enthusiasm, and beauty to be found in first fanfics. The whole process back then was new and exciting, and I remember having a kind of almost manic energy and excitement while writing my first fic that I've never been able to recapture since then. So lets take a moment to shed some love on some of the fandoms' first forays into writing fanfiction!

Was your first fic in the Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons universe? Send it our way! We'd love to see them!

Although Claire is not exactly the sociable type, the residents of Mineral Town still find their way into her heart as she establishes new relationships in this small town, whether that be friendships or perhaps one day love among the many potential romantic candidates among her.
