What can I say - the third of the mushroom sisters. I love how she interacts with the caterpillar. And you have to consider that it can eat her skirt... 🐛

Jellyfish mermaid concept

Floyd Leech x Reader

Just a little concept I had floating in head about childhood "friends" concept with Floyd!!

---

You were staring at the water's surface above you. Usually, you'd be out right now, floating aimlessly, following food..

The surface called you, pulling at your heart like it was tied to a string

Each breath you took felt like it took you closer and closer to food, nourishment, enrichment; and each exhale likewise plunged you kilometers back to the bottom of the sea.

You heard words drifting past without ever registering them, lost like those leaves in the wind you've read about. You felt the current pulling you further up to the surface.

There was laughter and giggling in the forefront; there was murmuring a little ways off. And somewhere deep and dark in the nursery, there was crying.

But at the surface of the water, there was food. And your stomach gnawed at you desperately. Loneliness tried its hand at weakly scratching its way out. Sadness pulled you up helplessly, stripping you of your autonomy. Emptiness ate at you from your stomach, to your eyeballs, to your fingertips.

On the outside, the laughter got louder, as did the giggling. As for the hunger, it grew exponentially more loud and demanding by the second.

Loneliness ripped you up into tiny little ribbons. Sadness’ grip on your wrist was beginning to bruise. Emptiness almost eating you whole.

And then you heard a scream from a few meters away.

Its pitch was as thin as a needle, as sharp as a knife. Shrill and long and precise and piercing you straight from one ear to the other. The laughter stopped, as did the giggling, and the murmuring. You barely noticed that the far away crying had long been silenced from something a while ago.

Food compelled you to look down.

You had scarcely registered the small fish stuck in between your tentacles. Its eyes were wide and white and all but bulging out of their sockets. It looked you in the eyes, with desperation, pleading; something you couldn't quite catch nor see nor recognize in your hunger. 

Regardless, it was food, and you ate it.

No longer alone, your stomach settled. No longer sad, you descended back to the class area. No longer empty, you were whole. You were complete.

And then another sharp screech pierced you from the sides once more, making you flinch and hiss at the noise. Screaming, crying, weeping, screeching, yelling, all and everything; all at once.

“Teacher! He ate a student!!”

“.....Hh-”

“Teacher! She did something bad again!”

“Oh my!”

“Eek!!”

“Whatever..”

And then you heard wicked laughter. Sinful, irreverent laughter. It rang like a bell through the belltower that was your classroom area.

As the voice chortled, and crowed, and roared in hideous, selfish pleasure, it's owner gasped desperately for air.

It was as if he was fighting to breathe, or as if his gills couldn't work and he was seizing uncontrollably; with heinous laughter being a symptom.

The laughter grew louder, the tears grew louder, as did the yelling, and the pointing of fingers. What in the ocean was going on?

Two eels swam up to you later that day. Or perhaps night. It was too dark to tell. 

Their eyes shone gold, one each, on opposite eyes. With blue hair and blueish tails, they slinked through the water, cloaked with darkness, as a predator would stalk its prey.

They looked familiar, and yet something in the way they existed screamed at you “danger, danger, danger”.

“Sssaw that little stunt you pulled, kid,” said one of the golden eyes. 

Neither of them could be much older than you were, and you could hear youth and inexperience bleed into the slippery eel’s voice.

The other golden eye chuckled politely. “It caused quite the shock, you know.”

Their voices grew closer, as did the shine in their eyes.

“Made that little girl cry.”

 It felt like they slithered closer to your eyes, so that they’d pluck them out; to your fingertips, to shove their fingernails up your own.

“The poor child. You ate her friend.”

Closer and closer with teeth sharp as knives, beared and ready to shred you apart into their next meal. 

Stay away, stay away, stay away.

“My, how cold, pushing us away Like that. Right, Floyd?”

Danger, danger, danger.

“Yep.” The predator-boy popped the ‘p’ sound as if popping an egg open. His crescent moon grin was pointed with sharp edges. “Kinda makes ya curious when they try to run away like that. Huh, Jade?”

“...Sh..” Your voice was cracky, having gone unused for months. You gulped and hoped they cracked whatever confidence the predators had.

“Woah!” It did not. “The lil’ jellyfish has a backbone, after all! Sick. Whatsit gonna say.”

You glared at the expressive eyes. It glinted the most immediate danger between the two pairs. “..Shove off.”

“Ehh, we just wanna play!” You could feel him in the water elbow his brother lightly. “Right, Jade?”

“Of course, Floyd.”

“Yeah,” said the ‘Floyd’ predator. His eyes pierced your own, and you could have sworn they’d gone blind and useless. “Just a liitle game we call Mutiny.”

“What’s your name, lil’ jelly?”

“..(Y/N).”

“Woah, fancy. I'm Floyd, an’ ‘ats Jade.”

“Good to meet you.” He extended his sharp talon of a hand. You didn't shake it.

“Pshh, (Y/N)'s got spunk. Okay. Cool.”

#mermay_shrooms day 20

Cyptotrama Asprata a.k.a. golden-scruffy collybia

for Mal’oviy mushrooms x mermay challenge on insta

[witch-with-scissors]

I've always preferred to create a traditional collage ✂️ But in a small apartment and with three cats, you have to manage differently… Sitting in the city, I miss forest and mushroom picking. Hence the first in a series of mushroom mermaids (?). 🍄

Cool dice

Cool Dice = nerd (complementary), cool socks, please tell me about your special interest/hyperfixation

Hmmm where do I start

I am really into Chinese bl (danmei). Most danmei are like shounen with the homoerotic undertones, except the sexual tension actually gets paid off!!!

And I say “like shounen” because, unlike Japanese BL, there’s a lot more emphasis on plot when it comes to danmei. Of course, there are also danmei focusing on romance, but the best ones have complex plots you don’t really find in shounen ai/yaoi.

Naming a few mainstream danmei, to start:

Heaven Official’s Blessing = fallen god reascends for the third time and befriends a demon king. Together, they get to the bottom of a lot of scandals in the heavenly court

The Husky and His White Cat Shizun = evil emperor is reborn to the year he was still a teen and is yet to do any evil stuff and once again has to face his loathed master (shizun) and obey him.

Little Mushroom = sentient mushroom takes over dead human body and infiltrates the human base to retrieve his stolen spore

The Earth is Online = humanity is pulled into a death game

Sha Po Lang = ancient industrial Chinese setting (steampunk???) about a prince and his Yifu + war and stuff

And some non-mainstream ones, but are my absolute favorites:

Fourth Perspective = Sci-fi where characters have “logic chains” that grant them random abilities (that may or may not be useful), but with limits. Main character’s logic chain allows him to see other people’s “logic factors”

I Became a God in a Horror Game = Guy who’s obsessed with money gets pulled into a death game and comes out victorious every time (his driving force is money). Very mindblowing arcs and well-written characters

Mermaid Effect = guy picks up “fish” on the beach and keeps it as a pet, but then it turned out to be a biological weapon

Si Tian Guan = guy who died in political drama gets reborn to the year before it all started and vows to not repeat the mistakes of the past and also protect the person most important to him. This one made me cry a lot that I still couldn’t finish it...

It’s like… these stories just happen to have gay protagonists. The characters being gay and in love aren’t their main selling points. They actually have stories to tell outside the romance and the fucking (which is often censored coz, yknow, China) and also explore a variety of deep themes, and that just makes them more interesting to me

Day 13: agere mood board based on my favourite fantasy creature 

[cookiesrunaus-whitelily]

Blue Lily and Lilybell are daughters of Elder Faerie and Sugar Swan.

Lily loves to travel and on one of her trips she found Affogato injured and alone, since then the two became very close to the point where they consider each other siblings.

On another trip to the sea, she and Affogato met Black Pearl.

Somehow they managed to strike up a civilized conversation with her and became friends, then they met the others and Lily helped them get along.

Lily decided to live in the woods of Beast-Yeast, so as not to be bothered by hunters or other cookies.

In her travels, she also found children who had lost their homes or were abandoned, and ended up adopting them.
