Bucky pinning you down so you can’t squirm and he’s just sitting inside you while he tortures your clit feeling you clench around him. He makes you cum over and over until he finally cums.
Overstimulation + super soldier stamina = …
- 🍯
Dear God, I know I just don't have it in me to behave during cock-warming. When it comes down to it, I genuinely have no patience at all 😵💫
"You..." Bucky begins, pressing you down onto the bed before gripping your ankles and forcing you to flip over onto your front. "Have a problem with control."
With your face turned away from him, you can't help but smile to yourself. No one has ever said it out loud but you know he's right.
Being in control is where you're most comfortable. No hands are safer than your own. Except maybe his. You know he won't fuck this up.
"And you..." He continues, gathering your wrists behind your back, holding them tightly with one hand. "Need to learn how it feels to have control taken from you. Do you understand?"
As soon as you begin to nod your head, you feel him start to tape around your wrists, holding them together behind your back. Once he's content they're secure, he sits on the edge of the bed, facing the mirror before he pulls you onto his lap.
"Legs spread over the top of mine." He orders and you do as you're told, not because you have to but because you want to.
You notice the way your cunt is already glistening in the mirror and you're almost embarrassed because he hasn't even touched you yet.
"Fuck, you're made for this." He groans, lining his cock up to your slick entrance and you wonder if he's holding his breath too while he slides into you, as deep as your bodies will allow.
You're obsessed with the sight in front of you; your own naked body, with your legs spread so far apart you can see how your cunt is stuffed full of him.
Being shorter though, your feet can't touch the ground like this. There's no way you'll get enough leverage to fuck yourself on him but as soon as you start to tell him that, he silences you with two thick fingers between your lips.
"I'm not letting you fuck me." His free hand roams over your body, squeezing your breasts, pinching your nipples and then settling between your spread thighs.
"I'm going to play with you. I'm going to see how much you can take. I'm going to work out exactly how you like your clit stroked and I'm going to do that until your legs are shaking and your body won't let you cum any more. Maybe then I'll fuck you but sweetheart, that will be hours from now." His breath is hot against the side of your face, his fingers slipping from your mouth to your waist while he starts to flick gently against your clit.
"I'm going to start slowly. I'm going to do everything I can to drag this out as long as possible. I can feel every clench and flutter of this pretty little cunt and I'm going to enjoy it until you're dripping over my balls." At this rate, it won't be long until you're dripping onto the carpet, never mind over him. You dreamed he'd want to take control like this but you never imagined the way your body would respond.
"And then, when you've cum more times than you can handle, I'm going to tell you that I love you while I fuck you like I don't."
Update: Part 2
#asks answered <3#becca writes spice#🍯 anon#bucky barnes smut#bucky barnes x reader smut#dom!bucky#I think this might be one of my favourites that I've written recently#That last line has been my go - to fantasy this week#it's come into my head every morning when I'm walking to the train#and I planned to write an exploration of it today#but you know#I like it just left there like that for now#I've spent most of my free time trying to book a mid-week city break#but I don't know where to start#I got a new piercing this week and I love it!!#but I was in work on Friday talking about it#and our graphic designer asked how many piercings I had#so I told him I have 8. So 3 in each ear#and the expression on his face was just pure maths#he didn’t question it lmao

Supernatural Cops
The fandom has come to the conclusion that all kinds of supernatural or unusual things happen in Amity Park and people take it like any other Tuesday.
Still, I wouldn't be surprised if this place is the only place in the country (not to say the world) that has a police division in charge of handling Cults…
Yes, in Amity Park there is a group of police (not to say half of all the police in the city) that are dedicated to controlling cults and their peculiarities, because we must remember that, despite the reputation of being a tourist trap, this town in the middle of nowhere has the reputation of being the most haunted place in the country (or the world), so it wouldn't be crazy to say that on certain dates of the year many "tourists" (cough cultists cough) arrive who come in order to do "events" (cough rites cough), so whether they want it or not, someone has to control that the limits on how they are "celebrating" are not broken… and to top it off, the limits of what the city considers acceptable is a greater margin than other places, so it has become common for some groups to come back later.
So yes, Amity Park has one of the most effective police departments in dealing with cults and supernatural beliefs, not only are they effective in identifying participants, most of the time they know what kind of cultist they are dealing with, whether they are just playing a game or are the real magic business and how dangerous/troublesome they will be in the end.
What's more, this group is so good at what they do, that many times the inhabitants of Amity Park prefer to call them instead of the GIW (they are too destructive and there is still no 100% reliable insurance that will pay for the damages they cause), when it comes to a problem with a ghost and the ghost child is not around.
and that competition is more noticeable when other cities in the country begin to ask for help with some unknown cults that are appearing rap
#danny phantom#dp x batman#dp x dc#batman#amity park#cryptid amity park#everybody from amity park is overly conpetent#Amity Park police have a secret relationship with Phantom#The Mayor would not approve of the police supporting a ghost#Many of the investigative books that the police use come from Phantom#They are the only group of adults that many teenagers in the city trust#They are the ones who clean up after the ghost fights#They also prevent the destruction of the city#Cultists often visit Amity Park#There are specialized stores to sell ritual ingredients in Amity Park#Someone adapted and rented some unused land in the cemetery for rituals#The waiting list can take months for some places#There are auctions for renting the place on dates like Halloween or the solstice#The police have thermos that are given and collected by the Fenton boy or his friends#The entire cult department of the police is hidden from the mayor#Most of the police do not trust him Mayor#Amiry Park was used to get rid of some overzealous or troublesome cops from other cities#At first those cops wanted to come back#now they don't want to leave#Silent war between Amity Park police and the GIW

The Gilded King
#aegon ii targaryen#hotd#art#this ones metallic so its super sparkly#thinking about the fact that hes the only king aegon without an epithet#all the others have some title that references something about them and their rein (conqueror dragonbane unworthy ect)#but aegon is just the elder describing only the position and time of his birth nothing actually about him or the way that he ruled#because he didn't do much as king most of the war was run by otto and criston and alicent he was just a figurehead#hes unnoteworthy outside of the fact he was king on the books during the dance#if theres a word that actually describes aegon and his rule i believe it would be gilded#shining gold on the outside rotten inside. a shining golden dragon being flown over the city by a drunk whose crown dsnt#fit#anyway so ive wanted to paint him in gold for a while#he also matches sunfyre#aegon the second#hotd fanart#hotd aegon#house of the dragon#team green#my art#fanart

city of heavenly fire is the tsc book if you think about it like it's so good. ended tmi with such a bang that it evaluated the series to new heights. wrapped up a six book series while setting up the next one, and on top of that incorporated the prequel and managed to do all three well. literally so many iconic and funny moments come from this book. also ended on a really hopeful note with the found family reuniting and being together after everything like 10/10. truly the cornerstone of this fandom.
#I love cohf & felt like yapping about it sorry#like one of my favourite characters dies in this book but Im not even mad about it really because it fit the story#also it's tsc so no one really dies lol#bella talks#tsc#the shadowhunter chronicles#city of heavenly fire#the mortal instruments#tmi

Not to be a hater but there are very few books that justify being 600-1000+ pages long.
#see: all of crescent city#those Carissa Broadbent books#the glow series#when the moon hatched like#not one of those series could support the weight of all those pages#and what would have been a pretty good story becomes a mediocre or often badly done slog#none of these authors write worlds or magic systems or politics particularly well#and so it's like 800 pages of forced will-they-wont-they#with characters that aren't consistent#in worlds that are poorly thought-out#anyway just going through my worst and most disappointing reads of 2025#and I'm noticing a trend#haters bookclub

Do you care for her? Don't worry too much about love, that's a dicey word for the over-forties. Or are you just afraid of becoming some old man dying in the groove of his life and buried out of pity by a bunch of youngsters who never knew you as anything other than some old fart who always seemed to be around the place.
Or: Are you giving up your entire life and everything you’ve ever known because you want to? Or because you feel like you have to? And can you live with yourself if you do it anyway?
#men at arms has TEETH. fuck me.#absolutely devastating book#this is kinda a mashup of all my favourite moments:#the bullet shattering the mirror. Vimes avoiding his own gaze. Him holding his badge so tight he cuts his hand open.#and of course: vimes getting hit with the compulsory amatonormativity beam#don’t worry vimes. if no one else got you just know us aromantics got you#discworld#city watch#sam vimes#gnu terry pratchett#cw blood

i don't understand the hatred some people have for hunt... like hasn't he been through enough to prove to y'all he's not evil? are you forgetting he, alongside two of his best friends, were TORTURED? and he never ONCE broke? are you forgetting the hatred he had for himself to the point where he had to shut his brain off and become a zombie to be the umbra mortis? did you forget how he made bryce come alive again?
i've been saying it since the beginning and i'll continue to say it. this fandom doesn't deserve hunt athalar
#alao funny how theyre like 'orion dies in every myth' my brother in christ this is sjm we're talking about#she NEVER does direct copies of myths. she always takes inspiration from them and mixes them with other inspirations#hunt athalar is MINE btw and i WILL defend him from you morons#hes been gwtting shit on since book one and i dont get it. genuinely i dont#crescent city#hunt athalar#tp#*getting

bunny blast-off!
#zeno's art#ultimate x-calibur#ocs#nova starbridge#optico#this was kind of spontaneous#most of the time when i make an illustration everything about it is in my mind already#but this was just based off a doodle that i decided to finish#i dont like this piece too much. i think i should've gone about the lineart differently - i also think it looks too clean#if that makes sense#i payed a bit of attention to values but the grayscale plan and the end result's grayscales are definitely very different#in the end i dont like this piece but i did like drawing nova's expression and the world behind her with the exaggerated city#i dont want to be too negative on it though... it was fun to draw#i hope everyone likes it. also i dont have a plan for a halloween piece just yet but ill try and find some free time to get one done#im booked and busy next month with studying so dont expect much
