#sadly i don't have access to it anymore but

[spectrearia]

ugh so I thought that I could easily access the old Atria world server (the world that Khalan's journal is based on) by just popping the Essential mod into the correct folder and moving the world files over to a singleplayer instance but. of COURSE. Essential doesn't have the specific Version I need to make that happen ;;;

I wanted to revisit the world to get some screenshots and video, but the last time I attempted to run the server I ran into Java path issues/crashing and I've been too lazy to try and fix it. it's been a little while since I've done some real server stuff after moving to Essential, so I'm kind of rusty on it and I don't fully remember what I need to do to get it running properly again :'c

the fam is thinking about getting a new internet router so i've had concerns that it might be harder to get that server running again once we switch, because of the IP changes and stuff, so that's why I was hoping i could just move the world to something easier to access before that happens. riperoni. i'll just have to troubleshoot the server the old fashioned way i suppose.

Back of the Car (18+)

Alex Morgan x Reader

Warning: Smut, Language, Creampies, Unprotected sex, dirty talk, Car sex, throat pies, Blowjob, Doggy position, Riding. (R doming Alex) (Alex receiving) reader gives Alex head.

Word count: 3,247

Plot: Reader is a new athletic trainer for the team, she is at practice with the girls. Alex takes a nasty fall and bangs up her leg. Reader takes Alex back to the hotel to inspect her leg and give her a massage to help release the pressure and tension. While readers driving Alex asks if they can take the long way back to the hotel and begins to get extremely handsy with reader as reader is driving. Reader can’t take it and has to pull over. Alex smirks and they begin to release their sexual tension in the back seat of the car.

*Y/n's pov*

We were at practice. Today was the 3rd day of camp I'm the new athletic trainer. I was standing off to the side with coach and watching the girls do drills.

Alex and Mal were doing a drill together. While they are doing the drill Alex and Mal collide, and take a nasty fall.

Alex banged up her knee pretty good. I grab my training bag and run over to the girls to check on them.

"Hey girls, you two okay?" I ask.

"Yeah, just my knee really hurts." Alex replies.

Mal smiles and gives me a thumbs up, she gets up and limps away walking away. I turn my attention back to Alex I help her up.

"You took a nasty fall . I'm sorry but I gotta take you out I don't want you to risk an even bigger injury." I say.

She sighs and nods. "Okay." She says sadly.

I help her up I throw my bag over my shoulder, and help her walk off the field. For some odd reason we don't have access to the lockers rooms here so I gotta take her back to the hotel and check her knee out.

I talk to coach. Coach nods she hands me the keys giving me permission to take her back to the hotel and drive back in the rental.

I help Alex walk out to the van, I throw my bag in the trunk and help Alex in the van. I walk around and get in the drivers seat.

I start the car. We pull out of the parking lot and start the drive back to the hotel. As I'm driving Alex starts to get handsy, she bites her lip and stares at my bulge.

"Can we take the long way back?" Alex asks and rubs my bulge over my shorts.

"Y-Yeah we can t-take the l-long w-way back." I stutter a bit and bit my lip as she rubs my bulge over my shorts.

I moan as she does this. Alex smirks and bites her lip.

"Someone's turned on." She giggles.

I moan and nod, it was dark out by now. Plus the windows were tinted, Alex takes off her seat belt. She taps my thigh, I get the hint. I lift my self up a bit, Alex slides my shorts and Boxers down my legs.

Alex leans over. She smirks and wraps her hand around my dick and slowly start stroking my dick.

"Woah, Your huge baby." Alex says as she continues stroking my dick.

I blush darkly as she says this. "T-Thanks." I stutter.

"F-Fuck." I moan in pleasure as Alex strokes my dick a bit faster. I keep my eyes on the road and grip the wheel as she strokes my dick.

Once my dick is hard Alex swirls her tongue around my tip. I moan as she does this, Alex smirks and takes my dick in her mouth.

I moan as the tip of my dick hits her throat. Alex chokes and gags a bit and slowly bobs her head I moan as she does this.

"Mmm fuck Alex, just like that." I moan as Alex starts giving me head.

Alex continues to give me head bobbing her head a bit faster. I moan as I continue driving, eventually I can't take it anymore. I spot an old building and pull over into the parking lot and park behind the building and turn off the car.

"Mmm fuck Alex right there." I moan.

"Relax Y/n, relax and enjoy." Alex says.

She takes me deeper in her throat, she deep throats me and bobs her head faster and faster.

"Oh S-Shit." I moan.

She deep throats my dick and sucks my dick faster and faster. I throw my head back as she continues to suck my dick. Her lips adding pressure making it more better than ever.

"Mmm." I moan.

Alex hums against my dick and continues to suck the soul out of my dick. She chokes and gags a bit as she deep throats my dick. Spit and drool runs down my dick.

I moan as I feel myself getting close to cumming. "Alex baby.... I'm close."

Alex hums against my dick and bobs her head even faster than before. I moan and help her bob her head. I throat fuck her as she continues to suck my dick.

Alex chokes and gags. "Guck guck guck."

I moan as I feel that all to familiar feeling in my balls. "Alex baby I'm gonna-"

Throat pie:

I can't take it anymore. Alex hums against my dick which sends me over the edge. I bust my load in her mouth, Alex chokes and gags a bit as I cum in her mouth.

Alex swallows my load and sucks me dry, my dick falls from her mouth. Alex sits up, she opens her mouth and shows me a mouth full of cum. She smiles, some cum drips down her chin. She smiles and swallows my load.

"Mmm fuck that was amazing." I moan Panting and coming down from my high. 

Alex climbs over the center console and moves to the back seat. I join her and also climb into the back seat.

I make out with Alex kissing her deeply. I slip off her shirt and sports bra. She does the same and we set our shirts and bras off to the side.

I slip my hand in her shorts and panties and rub my finger over her soaking folds as I kiss her deeply.

Alex moans in the kiss. "Mmm your soaking wet baby." I say.

"All for you daddy." Alex moans.

I smirk, I lay her down on the back seat. I kiss her, she kisses back I kiss and suck on her neck leaving hickys.

"Mmm no teasing." Alex moans.

I kiss her neck down to her chest. I kiss and suck on her chest leaving hickys. Alex moans and plays with my hair. I kiss and suck on her boobs leaving hickys, Alex gasps and moans as I do this.

I kiss from her boobs down to her stomach/ abs. I kiss and suck on her abs leaving hickys. Alex moans and runs her fingers through my hair.

"Mmm fuck." She moans.

I kiss from her and down to her shorts. I kiss her pussy over her shorts.

"Mm Y/n please take off my shorts and eat me out." Alex moans.

I grab the waist band of her shorts and panties and slide her shorts and panties down her legs and set them on the ground. I kiss from her abs down to her thighs. I kiss and suck on her inner thighs teasing her and making her beg for more.

Alex sighs in frustration. "Y/n stop fucking teasing before I finish myself off with my fingers."

I smirk. I lick her folds and begin to eat her out. Alex moans as I start to eat her out. I slip in a finger and slowly finger her as I eat her out. 

"F-Fuck." Alex moans.

I smirk against her pussy as I continue to eat her out I finger her a bit faster than before.

I eat her out, I slip in another finger and finger her faster and faster as I eat her out, Alex moans loudly in pleasure and wraps her thighs around my head and rests her legs on my shoulders.

I lick her clit and roll my tongue on her clit adding different pressure. This drives Alex crazy making her a moaning mess.

"Mmm fuck fuck fuck." Alex moans.

She squirts in my mouth and on my face. I lick up her juices and keep eating her out as I finger her faster and faster.

"Ahh I'm gonna cum." Alex moans.

I stick my tongue the deep in her pussy and finger her faster and faster slipping in a third finger.

Alex moans. Her legs shake and buckle in pleasure as she cums. She cums on my face, in my mouth and on my fingers.

I like and clean up her sticky mess. I wipe her juices off my face and lick her cum off my fingers.

"Mmm to taste amazing baby." I say.

Alex blushes darkly as she sees me lick her cum off my fingers. Alex comes down from her high, once she catches her breath she smirks and slowly strokes my dick.

I moan as she strokes my dick, Alex lines my dick up with her pussy and helps guide me in. I moan as she slides my dick deep inside her wet tight pussy.

"Mmm so wet and tight." I moan.

Alex giggles and moans. "Tell me when to move baby."

Alex nods and takes a moment to adjust to my size deep inside her.

"Damn I thought you were big in my mouth but you feel even bigger deep inside me." Alex moans.

I giggle. Alex pulls me down and kisses me, she wraps her legs around me and pulls me closer leg trapping me.

I melt into the kiss and kiss her back. Alex wraps her arms around me. She breaks the kiss.

"Move." Alex moans.

I slowly thrust in and out of her. Me and Alex both moan as I thrust in and out of her slowly then pick up the pace and go a bit faster.

I go faster and faster. I moan loudly in pleasure as I feel her walls clench around my dick gripping my length.

"Mmm fuck your pussy feels amazing clenched around me." I moan in pleasure.

"Mmm fuck Y/n right there." Alex moans in pleasure.

I smirk and go faster and harder. My balls slapping against her skin and our moans echo throughout the car.

*Alex’s pov*

I moan in pleasure as Y/n picks up the pace, Y/n moans cutely and keeps going her balls slapping against my skin. She was balls deep inside me damn she was super deep inside me.

I could feel her dick throbbing inside me she really needed a release. I moan as my walls clench around her, I was close to cumming. 

"Mmm I'm close." I moan in pleasure.

Y/n goes at an angle and pounds my g spot fast and hard. My boobs bounce up and down as she goes faster and faster.

I moan loudly in pleasure and squirts all over like crazy. Y/n moans her breathing getting heavier letting me know she's close to cumming. Y/n cutely moans and starts to focus on her surroundings letting me know she's  about to bust.

"Yes, cum in me cum in me." I moan Louldy in pleasure.

"Ahh fuck I'm close." Y/n moans.

"Me too don't stop." I moan in pleasure.

I moan and cum on her dick. This sends Y/n over the edge, Y/n moans and busts her massive load deep inside of me, I moan and sigh in pleasure as her juices flood inside me.

I moan and leg trap her making her finish inside me. Y/n moans and lowly thrust back and forth as she continues to shoot ropes of thick sticky cum deep inside me.

I moan and grab her ass and help her thrust deep inside of me. I gasp and moan, she can cum buckets. She was still cumming inside me.

Y/n moans. We rest our heads against each other. We both look down and watch her slowly thrust in and out of me. Cum oozing out of me and coating her dick and lubing my pussy.

I bite my lip as cum oozes out. Fuck that was such a sexy site to see. Y/n moans and comes down from her high slowly thrusting in and out of me filling me up with the last of her cum.

God I could feel her cum in my stomach there was so much. I felt full, god I've had multiple guys fuck me and finish In me but damn Y/n's dick and cum felt so much better than theirs. No better feeling in the world than to feel someone finish inside you.

Y/n was less tense now. She moans and pulls out cum oozing out of my pussy and coats my folds and floods onto the seat, Y/n collapses onto me panting and coming down from my high.

I moan and pant and hold her as we both catch our breathes. "God that was amazing. I'm sorry I didn't mean to cum in you." Y/n says.

"It's okay baby I'm on a pill. Don't hold back baby cum in me as much as you want to." I moan.

*Y/n's pov*

I catch my breathe and sit up, Alex also sits up, she straddles my waist. She lines my dick up with her pussy, she pushes my tip in and slides down on my dick taking my length back deep inside her pussy.

"Mmm fuck." I moan and wrap my arms around her. "So tight and warm." I moan in pleasure.

Alex moans and slowly slides up and down on my dick. I Moan and rest my head against hers, Alex moans and grips the head rest behind me as she slides up and down on my dick faster and faster.

"Holy shit babe. Just like that I'm gonna cum buckets if you keep doing that." I moan in pleasure.

Alex’s boobs bounce up and down as she continues to ride my dick. "Mm fuck daddy." Alex moans.

Alex goes faster and faster slamming her ass down on my dick. I moan in pleasure I close my eyes and lean my head back against the head rest.

"Does that feel good daddy? My cum filled pussy clenched around your dick." Alex says seductively as she keeps going.

"So fucking good." I moan in pleasure as I feel myself getting close to cumming. "Alex babe, I'm close."

Alex moans loudly. "Me too cum in me. Give me that thick cum." Alex moans seductively.

I moan as I feel my balls tighten. Fuck I don't think I can last much longer her pussy is amazing and feels like heaven.

"Ahh fuck." I moan.

Alex moans and smirks. "Is someone close?" She asks teasing me.

I moan and nod. "Give it to me baby give me your load." Alex moans in pleasure.

Alex goes faster and harder, she slams her ass down on my lap as she goes faster and harder.

Creampie #2:

Alex moans and slams her ass down on my lap. I moan and bust my load deep inside her filling her up with a second Creampie.

Alex moans and cums all over my dick. We both moan I fill her up and paint her walls whiting shooting thick ropes of sticky cum deep inside her.

Alex moans and rests her head against mine as I continue to fill her up with my load. I help Alex ride out her high, once we both come down from our high Alex slowly gets up. My dick falls from her pussy.

Cum oozes out of her pussy. Cum drips down her thighs and drips onto my lap and onto the seat, I smirk and squeezes her ass.

"Such a cum slut." I say.

Alex giggles and nods. "All for you daddy."

Alex gets on all fours my cum still oozing out of her pussy and dripping down her thighs and onto the seat. I get up and move behind her, I slide my dick back inside her cum filled pussy. We both moan in pleasure as I slowly thrust in and out of her.

"F-Fuck yes right there." Alex moans.

I thrust into her faster and faster, I go at an angle and pound her g spot. Alex moans and grips the edge of the seat screaming my name.

I smirk, I pull her hair and slap her ass as I keep going.

"Harder daddy." Alex moans.

"Like this?" I question and slap her ass a bit harder than before.

"Yes like that." Alex moans.

I spank her ass as I keep going fucking her brains out from behind. Alex screams in pleasure and squirts all over the seat. Some of her juices go on my abs.

"Fuck fuck fuck." Alex moans loudly n pleasure as I continue to fuck get ass from behind.

I moan in pleasure as I feel myself getting close to cumming.

"Mmm I'm close, so good." I moan in pleasure.

"Fuck daddy you feel so good stretching out my pussy." Alex moans in pleasure. She throws her ass back against me and slides back and forth in my dick at a fast pace.

"Yeah? You like that baby, my dick and cum deep inside your cum filled pussy?" I questions as I continue to pound her g spot from behind.

"Yes I love it. Fuck I feel so full with your cum deep inside me." Alex moans.

I moan and go faster and harder. I dig my nails in her ass as I feel myself getting closer and closer to cumming.

"Mmm fuck I'm close." I moan.

"Me too, don't stop." Alex moans.

I moan and keep going. I go as fast and as hard as I can go. Alex moans and squirts like crazy again she was a squirter which was kinda sexy.

I moan loudly as I fell my balls tighten. Alex moans and throws her ass back against me sliding her ass back and forth fast and hard on my dick.

Cream pie#3:

Alex slams her ass back against my dick. I moan and bust my load deep inside her pussy. Alex cums all over my dick, me and her both moan as I paint her walls white and shoot ropes of thick sticky cum deep inside her.

"Ahhh shit, feels so good." Alex moans in pleasure as I continue to shoot warm sticky cum deep inside her.

I moan as I continue to cum deep inside her filling her up to the brim. I help Alex ride out her high, we both come down from our highs. I slowly pull out, cum immediately oozes out of her pussy.

Cum oozes and coats her folds. Cum drips down her legs and drips onto the seat. Alex moans, she reaches up and uses her finger and pushes whatever cum she can back inside her pussy.

Alex moans as she scoops up and shoves my cum back inside her pussy. I kiss her back and nip her ear.

I grab my phone and look at the time. "Fuck we gotta get back." I say.

I grab my clothes and hand Alex her clothes, we get dressed and get back in the front seat. I start the car and we drove back to the hotel.

We get to the hotel and I park the car. Alex smiles and leans in and kisses me.

"You were amazing Y/n. Stop by in the morning I'll definitely need a massage." Alex smirks and rubs my dick over my shorts. “For now I’m gonna shower and get some sleep.”

I smirk and kiss her. Alex smiles, she gets out of the car and limps into the hotel and goes up to her room leaving me alone.

I turn off the car, I grab my bag and make my way inside and go back up to my room.

Fuck that was unexpected. I walk back to my room abd try to comprehend that I just fucked Alex Morgan in the back seat of a car. Oh my god! That’s makes her a milf I’m only 21! But I kinda dig it, I’ll go round 2 with her again. God she’s amazing in bed and can really make a girl cum.

I head back up to my room, I unlock the door and go inside the room. I shower and lay in bed and fall asleep.

YOUR DOKJA X READERS ARE SO CUTEEEEE. How about a scenario w/ clingy Dokja trying to suppress his clinginess because Jungyeok is forcing him in a side mission but he doesn't want to leave reader's side 😭😭😭

heheeheheheheehheheheheeheclingydokjahehehehehehehehehehheheheheheheheh

im going to use main scenario no.6 (peace land), also, ur a healer

golden retriever boyfriend kim dokja >>

i cant really remember what happened in MS6

Hahhh fuck..he really didn't want to leave you...at times like this, Kim Dokja would be willing to participate, but this changed when he realized you weren't going to participate. "Do I have to?"

"Yes." Yoo Joonghyuk shut down Kim Dokja in an instant. "Hahaha, really..." Kim Dokja mumbled, his hand massaging his forehead along with an annoyed look. This man was really attached to you, ever since you first started officially dating him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a secluded space, Kim Dokja ran into your arms as he cuddled his head along the crook of your neck. "[name]..." He mumbled. "Yes Dokja?" you replied, hand combing through his hair softly. "I don't wanna leave you..." You laughed softly and smiled.

"I'm sorry baby, I have to take care of all the injured people. How about this, when you come back, we can cuddle and if you're hurt, I'll heal you alright?" He looked up at you. "Really? You promise?" He spoke eagerly. "Yes, promise." You smiled at him as he kissed you on the lips and smiled.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Soon it was time to leave. Dokja ran up to you, hugging you tightly. "I don't want to go...*hyuk*" he hiccupped, sobbing slightly dramatically. "Awh, you'll be fine without me, it won't be that long til' you see me again!" You smiled, giving him a peck on the forehead.

In response he stared at you with puppy dog eyes. "W-what?" you put a hand up, blocking him from leaning in closer, blushing. "You didn't kiss me on the lips.." He pouted sadly. If he was a dog, you'd see his ears and tail droop in a very depressed manner.

"Ah-I see!" You giggled, wrapping your arms around his neck and giving him a kiss-on the lips this time. As if it was some high-end magical cure, Dokja instantly became happy again.

Coming out of the tent all prepared, Kim Dokja was fired up and ready to complete the main scenario-whatever it might be. Of course, he wouldn't show his eagerness to anyone but you. This little golden retriever side of him was only accessible to be seen by your eyes. 'Gotta complete this so I can see [name] sooner!', he thought.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Days passed as Kim Dokja missed you even more and more. Ohhhh when will he ever be reunited with you again?

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Finally, after the banquet that was held finished, Dokja could finally be with you again. Transporting back to your world, he opened his eyes and saw your figure waiting for him in the distance. He quickly ran and embraced you in a tight hug. "I missed you so much [name]..." He could finally breath in your scent, feel your hugs, and talk to you again. He honestly didn't care about hiding his clinginess anymore, he just misses you so much (not that he hid it very well anyway).

"You're back! How'd it go? Are you hurt anymore?" You flooded him with questions, eager to see him again. You dragged him in the pop-up medical station that was set for any injured or sick people. "Sit!" You declared, pushing him down on the make-shift bed. You check his temperature, any signs of blood, to the very bone. Even though he was fine, you still gave him a health potion, and also used your own skill to heal him. You guys really were the perfect couple, or at least close enough, considering the whole apocalypse and all.

the boys as bodyguards

dedicated to absolutely no one. sure this is an asks blog - does that mean i have to actually answer them? i know i know bad admins bad admins whatcha gonna do whatcha gonna do when they come for you but i had a dream ages ago now that involved bodyguards, tsunamis, and also a shit ton of murder. don't ask. anyway, it got me pondering. and then it took literal months to write this so i figured i'd post what i've got so far, and maybe i'll update with the rest of the boys later, depending on how well this does/how much time i have

hanamiya makoto

hanamiya’s the package deal

he’s the chief advisor; he’s the doctor; he’s the bodyguard; he’s the sniper. just a right hand man in every way possible.

i mean, he’s not literally your right hand man: he’s the leader of a team, and often it’ll be one of his men there next to you at events, but he’s always supervising or coordinating or collecting intel

ie he’s dedicated to his job. he does like engineering spider’s webs after all.

having said that, he’s also an uncontrollable prick

he’s the best at giving you advice, both in terms of navigating high society and in terms of actual business advice, but is he going to give that advice without slipping in a snide comment about how you should really know all this by now? when you tell him to make sure to take a break some time, is he going to stop himself from saying “maybe if you weren’t so incredibly useless on your own, i’d be able to.”

and sure maybe he’s breaking the universal declaration of human rights with what he does to the people who dare to try harm you, but you don’t know about that

need to know basis type beat

you don’t even have access to the full floor plans of your own property, which includes a basement you’ll never know about, let alone step foot in. hanamiya keeps that information very close to his chest.

gotta make sure his employer has plausable deniability

gotta make double sure that you don’t find out about half the things he does - from the ways he sources his information, to his very dodgy organised crime links, to the number of people that have sadly lost their lives in the name of “fuck it, you’re pissing me off” - because he hates when you bang on about bullshit like “laws” and “morals”

after all, if everyone followed your beloved laws and morals, then you’d have no need for his services

as he always tells you, he’s just your pet necessary evil

yamazaki hiroshi

i reckon he only got into the bodyguard business because he spent his childhood wanting to be a samurai but, well you know, that’s not really a job opportunity anymore

what it does mean though is that he’s all about bushido: mastering his work, bravery, honesty, etc - and above all else loyalty to one’s employer

on a random thursday afternoon, he’ll tell you, completely nonchalantly, straight face, “i would die for you if that’s what it takes. on my life, i’ll always keep you safe.”

you’re staring at him like wtf and/or trying to stop yourself blushing, but he thinks that’s a completely normal thing to say cause he’s just following bushido

of course, late one night, he’ll wake up realise how weird that came across and he’ll spend the next week trying not to blush whenever you talk to him

just like the time he spent a week kicking himself after you walked in on him training, shirtless and rather sweaty, and when you told him he should take a break, he said “but i need to train so my body can be at its best for you”

again, at the time that sounded very reasonable, serious, and totally bushido to him. it’s only later that he’s freaking out in his room like why in god’s name did he say that.

but hey that’s bodyguard!yamazaki for you. a little weird, a little socially inept, but loyal to a fault

haizaki shougo

can you imagine the number of jobs that this man has lost for sleeping on the job?

he’s only got his current gig looking after you because his prices are cheaper and you were getting desperate to find someone in your budget

he’s a ...uhh… unique bodyguard? in the sense that he’ll get you out of harms way eventually, but "eventually" is the key word there

haizaki actively ignores intel that a certain location might be dangerous, because he really just wants to get into fights. sure you might get in the way occasionally, maybe even get some nasty bruises, but hey you get what you pay for.

you want a good bodyguard, save up some money, idiot.

literally the only reason he got into being a bodyguard is so he can beat people up legally (and because he got dishourably discharged from the military); he doesn’t care that much about the whole ‘protecting’ side of things

he’s also the type to ditch you the minute a better paying job comes up (possibly combat work as a mercenary). however he’s not as cold-hearted as he may seem, and he’ll happily spend a day of leave breaking into your penthouse

so that when you return in the evening, he’s there sat on an armchair, grinning smugly, “man your security’s turned to shit since i left.”

shortly followed by, “miss me?”

jason silver

jason’s the quintessential bodyguard, cause, after all, having a very muscular 6’11 man follow you everywhere you go isn’t exactly subtle

but he’s recognisable for other reasons as well.

like the fact that he’ll accompany you to formal balls, and he’ll be the only man there with an undone tie - it’s such a massive argument trying to get him to wear an appropriate suit instead of his usual hoodies and sweatpants, that can anyone blame you for not having the energy to insist he stops undoing his tie as well?

he’s also not exactly one for professionality. like you’ll be minding your business, trying to network, and suddenly you’ll hear a wolf whistle by your ear and a “wouldn’t mind me a bit of that”

“jason, that’s the ambassador to norway. we’re having her over for dinner next week, so, with all due respect, shut the fuck up. and whisper next time, for heaven’s sake! what if someone had heard you?”

“shit, is it a crime to like some nice tits in this economy?”

and when you glare at him, genuinely furious, he grins, puts his hands up, and says, “sorry, sorry. forgot you don’t like me having eyes for anyone else, boss.”

but don’t get me wrong, jason’s not all evil contra to fujimaki’s propaganda

he is an incredibly good bodyguard - those animal instincts really help him out when it comes to getting you out of a sniper’s line of sight, or saving you from a bullet, or just assessing a room for potential entry points. and he packs a mean punch if anyone tries to try something on you, a solid ko.

no one’s getting past him essentially

the only problem is that it’s incredibly difficult to thank jason for saving your life, cause the last thing he needs is an ego boost or feeling like you owe him.

“seriously jason. i don’t know how i can ever repay you.”

“usually the payslip’s enough,” he smirks, “but you know that little lady ambassador-“

unsuprisingly, he’s not invited to the dinner.

[remedyturtles]

YOUUUUUUUU

Yes, you. I adore you so much you have no idea. FUCK.

I love your latest oneshot about the boys "stare directly at the sun" and I'm going insane. I AM UNWELL. I could write a whole ass essay about how much I love it, how you've written the characters felt so authentic and how you've emotionally broke me in the worst places possible, I've read ROTTMNT fics before, but this one stood out being an alternate setting with character being HUMAN and living normal mundane lives. How much their lives differ from what we know in the OG series yet we can spot things that stayed the same.

I love how instead of being crime fighting Ninja's, while I know that's pretty badass, But these kinds of fics makes the characters feel real for me, there's not much human setting fics of the boys which I'm sad about, (kinda wish there's more) I could literally write my own fic about em but sadly I'm not built like ao3 authors with the time and energy to do so :(( which your fic touched me on a personal level, they are going through school problems, SPLINTER HERE BEING A GOOD PRESENT FATHER GAAAHHH and then having more access in mundane things it holds a special place in my heart omfg...🫶✨

And the fact Leo wants to be a doctor my heart goes out to him 😭😭😭 I'd like to ask what do the other brothers dream to become in the future? What careers they wanna do? I have a few guesses, but I truly wanna know it in your inverse human au you've cooked up with and totally cool if you ignore this part– I don't wanna take more of your time— buuuut I really wanna know more about your human au about the boys;

Are other canon characters still there?

How drastically did you change the world to make it more humanely normal for them?

Do Yokais still exist?

Will this just be a oneshot one time thing or can we expect more of the human verse of your world?

Oahskwbw anyways, thank you so much for existing and writing your beloved fics, I love your works sm you're literally one of my favorite ao3 authors, it's making my heart explode!! Pls do take care of yourself also!!!! <33

STOP you are far to kind to me omg

i am incredibly influenced by the fact that i've read 'problem child' by taizi approximately a MILLION times. also shoutout to 'teenage mutant ninja what now' by tangledinink and the related 'scotch gambit' by like_theletter. OH and of course 'running on low (all the way home) by gibbouslunation. if you've never read human au's before and liked mine, DEFINITELY check out these!!!

writing 'stare directly at the sun' was literally because i had this idea of leo not wanting to be a doctor anymore being like a HUGE red flag and essentially built a story around that hahahaha.

i have zero intent of writing more in this au (i wrote it in 11 days like a fever dream and now i am turning my attention back to firefight haha) but i will answer your questions regardless:

no idea if there's other canon characters. it is genuinely just the real world lol, so no yokai.

raph is currently in university for education to become a teacher, undecided for what age but probably younger. mikey has changed his big ambition at least once a year, anything from chef to professional gymnast to zookeeper. donnie is going to take engineering (to start, he wants to milk the education system for all it's worth so he may get multiple degrees) and he would be accepted at any school he applies to so he will choose whichever one accepts leo haha

cheers mate thank u for the kind words ;__;

Are there any other schools like NRC and RSA in your worldbuilding that aren't branch based schools? Defunct dorms no one talks about anymore? Is Noble Bell laundering money from somewhere? I wanna know the education situation, so to speak.

Honestly, in my canon, RSA isn't a branch school. That's purely on the fact that we haven't seen any RSA NPCs with different colored mage stones like NRC students have. RSA has halls for each 'hero dorm', but they're more like. Oh, they gave us support and to show our appreciation we made this themed area of the school. Instead of housewardens, they have a student council that mirrors the NRC boys.

I've talked about it before, like way before hand; but I made Ramshackle the abandoned dorm of Peter Pan. He gave his support because he thought it'd be a good way to have a constant stream of lost boys. But then he realized how boring school was and quickly removed his support. Ramshackle, from that point, fell out of use and didn't get the same updates that the other dorms gained being moved to the mirror chamber.

NRC and RSA are listed as the top schools. But that seems unfair since they're both supposed to read as all boys' schools. So I added the fanon fact that NRC is never written as an all boys school in the charter. It's just been a wild coincidence that everyone admitted so far has been male presenting.

Sadly, I don't have much about Noble Bell as a school so far. I also wanna know why they'd be laundering money XD.

Education wise, there are more schools that aren't purely magic based but offer a few classes for weak mages where they can learn to control their magic and have access to resources. But magical education is expensive and dangerous.

And just as there are all boys' magic schools, there are all girls' magic schools and coed magic schools.

Unreleased & cancelled BL visual novels

Recently I purchased some second-hand BL visual novel magazines, and while reading them, I realized just how many of these announced games were never actually released. I thought it could maybe be interesting to compile a list of these games. I will mention which games were officially cancelled, but the status of most of these games is completely unknown. Perhaps they will still be released one day, but some of these publishers also don't seem to exist anymore. The magazines I used to find most of this information are Binetsu Ouji, B's Log and Cool-B!

Ouka Otsu - Shinshuu Kikou Senki (【櫻華堕つ) Publisher: Fareastblade This story of this game was supposed to take place during the Second World War. A famous researcher called Dr. Kisaragi Akira made it possible for the Japanese empire to develop cyborgs with super human strength. However, the United States also developed cyborgs and their creator intends to destroy Kisagari's research. Kisaragi escapes and seeks the help of the few surviving cyborgs, who all have their own reasons for helping him even though they don't like him. Part of this game was released as an e-book and translations can be found here. I am surprised the developers stopped publishing information about this project because I frequently saw it in Cool-B. Back then they published a lot of information, CGs and even short stories. Their last blog update was posted in 2016 in which they explained how things have been difficult and they decided to temporarily suspend the project. However, they never returned to confirm when production would be resumed. Secretly, I still hope that this game will be released one day, there's so much content already and it all seems really promising, but the official website doesn't work anymore and the Twitter account was also deleted. Some of the staff who worked on the game did mention how they still wanted to complete the project one day, but it has also been some years since these tweets were posted,

Angel's Feather Onsen mono Publisher: Blue impact This was supposed to be the third, and final Angel's Feather game. Some Japanese websites mention that the game's staff left the company, which was probably the reason why this game was never released. The magazines mention how the name of this game was just a placeholder name at the time (literally Angel's Feather hot spring story) but I could not find if they ever announced the real title. Some CGs were published in magazines and it looks like it was supposed to be light-hearted fandisc, focusing on the characters spending time with each other and having fun at the hot springs.

White Shadow Publisher: Blue Impact According to the official website, which can still be accessed through Wayback Machine, the first information about this project was published in Binetsu Ouji in 2004. Similar to the third Angel's Feather game, there's not much hope that it will ever be released because the staff that originally worked on it quit. This means that sadly, Angel's Feather was Blue Impact's first and last BL visual novel series. It was supposed to be a post-apocalyptic story which takes place after a long-lasting war that destroyed most of the planet. Some humans survived, who clung to a small piece of land that had survived the disaster. The people who live could be classified into three types, normal humans without supernational powers, humans who have characteristics of other creatures (for example animal characteristics), and people with strong supernational powers. This game was also featured on the cover of Cool-B volume 2. The regular updates that were posted on the official website make it look like the game was almost finished before the employees quit, so it's really a shame it was never released.

Torus Zero/ 0 -Torus (トーラス・ZERO) Publisher: CORE This is another one of these games that is mentioned pretty often in older magazines and was also featured on the cover of Cool-B (volume 4). The publisher CORE, became quite well-known in the industry after releasing Messiah, but Torus Zero was the project they originally wanted to release first. Before Messiah was released, they also released another visual novel called Fanatica, which upon reaching the final ending, mentioned how the story would be continued in Torus Zero. Unfortunately some of CORE's staff officially announced that they couldn't continue their projects after a big earthquake struck Japan in 2011. Now there's actually a bit of hope for this project because a few weeks ago, the artist Carnelian, announced a completely new project called Tokyo Gentou/Tokyo Phantasmagoria. In the magazine article it was mentioned that similar to CORE, a new BL game branch called Procyon would be releasing this new game. In an interview published in Cool-B volume 111 they mentioned that they came up with some of these ideas a long time ago, so I do wonder if they will use some elements of Torus Zero in this new game. Originally, Torus Zero focused on protagonist Riku who somehow ended up in a world in which he was the only human.

Unnamed project Publisher: CORE This game was only slightly teased in magazines and according to old BL game info website BOY-S STREET, the images were only on the website for a short time before it seemed like the entire project was scrapped and replaced with Torus Zero. It was supposed to be a school setting, but the main character is actually a demon and has two personalities.

Tenrin no Guneval (天輪のグネーヴァル) Publisher: Madalabo/Claw Mark A sci-fi story in which shadow creatures attack earth. Humans with special abilities saved mankind from this crisis. These characters all have their own special ability, some use fire or wind to fight while others can distort space. Technology also advanced, and flying motorbikes called 'Guneval' are used. This game was announced in 2012 and surprisingly the website can still be accessed, however it has been removed from all upcoming game lists in magazines and the last update on the website was only 4 months after the game was originally announced. Other than the usual visual novel gameplay, it was also supposed to have battle scenes in which you could control the main character to fight enemies. I'm kind of sad they never released this game because it seemed pretty interesting! Madalabo is mostly known for their other game Hadaka Shitsuji which seemed to be...the complete opposite of the story described on this game's website. I also really like superhero themes and the art is nice, so it's really a shame it never got released.

Shokushu Densetsu (触手伝説) Publisher: Madalabo Another Madalabo project that never got released. The title means 'legend of the tentacles' so I think you can already guess what this game is about. In 2011 they released a short booklet with some of the game's concept art, the characters, and other ideas for different future games. You can actually still buy a digital version of the booklet on DLsite here! You might even recognize some of these early concepts, as some of them were eventually used to create Kanja S (Patient S).

Nihon ni Natta Yoru (2本になった夜) Publisher: HardG.Lab This is… a strange one, the protagonist Taki Naruse is an ordinary university student who's busy with his homework and assignments. One day when he's forced to do a large number of tasks he decides to go to his lecturer to complain, but Taki gets ignored and his lecturer suddenly decides this is a perfect opportunity to check the new drug he has been developing. Long story short, Taki suddenly grows another dick (yep...). His lecturer suggests Taki uses his body to sleep with other men to ''cure'' his condition. I think this game was announced somewhere in 2011 and they published some information about it in Cool-B, but the official social media accounts were all deleted eventually.

New World Order Publisher: Love Delivery (HolicWorks) "When you die, say hello to God for me". This game was announced in 2015 and takes place in the United Kingdom. It focuses on a young British man called Lyr who works as a pastor at a church. He’s good at material arts and also knows how to use a gun. Together with three of his fellow pastors, he’s on a mission to kill. These are not just normal pastors, they’re professional assassins. I made a separate blog post about this some time ago, so if you want to read more you can find it here! The project was unfortunately officially cancelled in November 2022.

Heimskringla Publisher: Tyrant (HolicWorks) A dystopian future in which people developed the ability to see when a dead person’s soul leaves their body. The world once fell apart, but was then revided once more. In this new distorted world, humans started adapting to the environment and refugees from all over the world drifted to this country. As a result of this, it became a melting pot of many different races and towns continue to develop their own individual cultures. Five people, with five completely different backgrounds and birthplaces, travel together towards a certain place. There is only one thing all of them are looking for. Death. This game was officially cancelled in 2018, but it's quite hard to find any traces of it because Tyrant's official Twitter account was also deleted. I also wrote a blog post about it which you can check out here.

Gekka Souei (月下双影) Publisher: NOEL Two childhood friends who became enemies due to unfortunate circumstances. This game was supposed to focus on protagonist Hayate and two groups of shinobi, taking place in a modern day setting. It was quite hard to find information about this game because even with Wayback Machine you can't find much on the website. I happened to find a pretty good image of it on Twitter, posted by a user who happened to save some of the wallpapers back then. A little bit of information about this game was published in B'sLOG and in Cool-B, but only in 2006. Looking at the little bit of information I was able to find on the website, it seems like they had quite a lot of plans and wanted to add roleplay elements to this game too, as well as a SFW and 18+ version of the game. The magazines introduced quite a lot of characters and the interview with the developers (in Cool-B volume 10) mentions that they had planned to create five routes. They didn't really specify which characters, but I assume it's the ones that can be seen in the main visual?

Psychedelic (サイケデリック) Publisher: LOVE&DESTROY Another game that is not officially cancelled, but the publisher is working on multiple new projects and the official website has not been updated since 2014. The game takes place in Shibuya, Japan and focuses on five good friends who always hang out together. Will these normal days last forever? They promoted this game as being ''all reverse'' so you could choose which character tops/bottoms which is pretty rare nowadays. In 2018 LOVE&DESTROY mentioned that the project was currently 'on-hold' and it's still unknown if they ever decide to create the game.

Tsukiiro Tanshikyoku (月色譚詩曲) Publisher: Adelta & MonstreCarameliser I think most BLVN fans immediately recognize Kurosawa Rinko's artstyle, who's well known for creating Hashihime and Uuultra C. This game is also not officially cancelled, but there hasn't been any news for years. It was announced in 2018 as a second collab between Adelta and MonstreCarameliser (a year before that they released the short game Umiiro Kyoushikyoku). The website still works, but it was only updated a few times in 2018 and once in 2020. The game focuses on Kaguya, a heir of a certain kingdom (probably some kind of god realm if I look at the names of the characters) who was only interested in women and spending his parents' money. His parents eventually give up on him and send him down to planet earth, in the form of a baby. A young shunga painter (shunga = erotic art) called Takemasu finds him and takes care of him. However, Kaguya grows much faster than the inhabitants of the planet and regains his adult body within a few days.

Hashihime Fandisc Publisher: Adelta Every time I mention this people ask me if they really announced it, but yes, two fandiscs even! A 'good end' and 'bad end' one. It was announced in 2018, but only mentioned once in a blog post and in Cool-B magazine. It is not officially cancelled but they haven't posted anything about it ever since. It's actually still in Cool-B's upcoming game list, however usually when a game gets cancelled it just one day disappears from the list, without any explanation, so I don't want to be too hopeful. I think it's very possible that it was announced because a lot of other games also have fandiscs so it seemed like a good idea at the time, but Adelta started working on Uuultra C after this and is currently working on their new game Ooe, as well as their original drama CD series.

No Thank You!! OVA Publisher: parade Not a game announcement, but I still decided to include it. One of the tweets announcing it can still be found here, and no it was not posted on April Fools'… I think it was mentioned again a few months after the original announcement, but it has already been 10 years and they haven't mentioned it ever since.

🎤 Lando at the post-race press conference in Australia:

(So again, this video isn't mine, sadly. I can't access post-race press cons in the UK. I found this on YouTube, but this specific video I saved is not on there anymore, so I can't credit the original uploader. I've also cut the video to only include the questions and answers involving Lando)

Transcript:

Interviewer: Lando, coming to you, very many congratulations on your 14th career podium. Was this one unexpected?

Lando: Um, I think when you take the Red Bull out of it, I would say, no. I think our pace has been good all weekend. We put things together very nicely yesterday, uh, we showed a good, long run and high-fuel pace on Friday. So I wouldn't have said, uh, we had no chance. I didn't expect probably us to be competing against the Ferraris today. I think our pace was not as good as Carlos, but probably better than Charles.

So, I think, um, if I was being honest, we maybe missed out a little bit on an opportunity to be P2 today. But, um, yeah, for us to say that is a good sign, and I think, um, yeah, it's a good positive for the whole team. Uh, it's a good boost, it's nice to be back on the podium. And, uh, yeah, whether or not the Red Bull was there or not, um, our pace was good today and, uh, hopefully that continues for more races.

Interviewer: What more could you have done about Charles? Perhaps the undercut at the second pit stop? Was there... you say you left it on the table, but what could you have done?

Lando: I mean, we didn't leave anything on the table (laughs). But, uh, yeah, the lap we were gonna undercut, he boxed, so then, again, you have to go off and do, kind of, a different strategy. So, uh, we got close in the second stint, um, I got very close. Uh, if I boxed, I think I would have undercut. Um, but he boxed, so I missed that opportunity. So you always think, "what happens if we did it one lap earlier?"

But it's tough to make all those decisions at the time. And, um, it can easily go wrong at the same time; there are always consequences of doing so. So, um, I think we still did a very good job today. Uh, 3rd and 4th for us, as a team, is positive and a good load of points. Um, but they were clearly a better team, and, um, they have a better car at the minute. So whether or not we could beat them, they have a better car, they have a quicker car, and, uh, we have to work harder until we can, uh, match what they're doing.

Interviewer: Well, what about Suzuka in two weeks? Do you think McLaren, uh, can take a step forward again there, given where you were at that racetrack last year?

Lando: Uh, not really. Um, I think if, uh, if you look back to here last year, we were not terrible considering the car that we had. Um, we've now come back with a good car and we've shown what we can do, but I think this was always gonna be a good weekend for us. Um, Suzuka proved that last year, so I think they're kind of similar, you've got a lot of high speed. The problem is Ferrari have improved their high speed a lot, and that's where they were struggling last year.

So that's why they've been able to take such a good step forward. Um, I think we can still have a good weekend, we can still look forward to it. And I would love to say, if we can get two cars on the podium again, it would be, uh, a lovely weekend. But, um, I think we have two more cars this year that we're competing against on these types of circuits, not just, uh, not just Max.

Journalist Questions:

Interviewer: This is probably a good moment to bring in, uh, a question that's come in via email from Scott Mitchell-Mahm at The Race, and it's:

Question 1 (Scott Mitchell-Mahm – The Race, via email) First of all, to Charles and Lando, who know Carlos so well as a person and as a racing driver, do you guys think Carlos is underrated? And to Carlos afterwards, do you sometimes think you don't get the credit you deserve?

[Charles answers]

Interviewer: Lando, please, your thoughts?

Lando: Um, I think Charles put it well, to be honest. Uh, if anyone thinks he's... um, yeah, there's no reason anyone should think he's underrated. I think for the people who know him, know what he's capable of doing, know his effort level, um, his approach and dedication to wanting to be one of the best, exactly like he's proved, uh, today, and over the last couple of weeks. Um, I'm sure you have, uh, plenty of drivers who probably wouldn't have tried as hard and dedicated so much of their time and effort to, um, to trying to recover and get back in the race car. Um, and I think that's just one example of it.

But for the people who know what he's capable of doing, um, you would never ever say he's underrated. I think, uh, yeah, of course, results are always a bit of a point to show and people on the outside just easily judge things from what you see on TV. But, um, when you've worked with him, when you know what he's capable of doing, and when things click, they click very well and he has performances like he does this weekend. And I would say he has - all year, he's proved to be, um, uh, I'd say, a step up from maybe what he has been last year. So, uh, yeah, you're silly if you underrate him.

Interviewer: Do we have any more from the floor? Yes, we do. Yep?

Question 2 (Dominic Criniti – SEN Radio) Just a question for Lando. Congratulations on the podium first off. I just wanted to know if... uh, what your level of sympathy is towards Oscar. Obviously he had the chance to finish on the podium. Is it a bit of a bittersweet feeling for the team in that sense?

Lando: Um, uh, it depends how you look at it. Like, uh, I was a lot quicker, and I would have overtaken him anyway. It's just, uh, you don't wanna delay the process of that happening, and the longer I, kind of, spent behind him, the worse it was making my chance of catching Charles and trying to be ahead of Charles.

So, um, yeah, I don't think the result changed at all. Um, he made my life easier and I think he helped us as a team, which I thanked him for a lot, and we have a lot of respect for one another in these, kind of, situations. Um, but I don't think the result changed, uh, at all.

Uh, but yeah, for any driver who's racing in front of their home fans, uh, you wanna be on the podium (smiles). So I don't think, uh... yeah, I would ever take anything away from that, or for what Oscar has provided and helped for in the team. Um, but, uh, I don't think the end result changed, no matter what.

[darkestescapes]

Saw your ask is open. Can I request you a jk fic where he cheated on you so you tried to leave him but he's adamant to keep you

My first anon ask! Woo-hoo!! 🖤 Hope you like it. Since I don't have a lot to go on I just used my imagination.

-

Warnings: Yan!JK x Fem! Reader. Toxic toxic toxic. But we love toxic JK don't we ;). JK locked reader in the house. Forced proximity? Implied fucking at the end, nothing specific. I'm not someone who likes the idea of cheating (being cheated on myself) but it's JK so.

"WHAT THE FUCK JK" you yell in annoyance after seeing him put your clothes back into the closet that you'd thrown into the first suitcase you could find.

"You're not going anywhere" he says calmly. He continues to put your clothes back while you stand in front of the bathroom door fuming at this man who vowed to love you forever.

"Fine then" you say and grab your shoes and make a run to the door. JK huffs in annoyance and puts the suitcase away, this time somewhere you won't find it easily.

You half wear your shoes and try entering the pass code of the door, try pulling the door, try kicking it but nothing works. Damn that sly sexy fucker.

Groaning in anger you sit on the ground and put your head in your hands.

"I'm sorry" JK leans his forehead on your shoulder. You laugh bitterly and remove your shoes and jacket and throw them on the ground with as much force as you can muster.

"I'm sorry? Is that the best you can come up with? What exactly are you sorry for Koo? Locking me inside this house? Or throwing my things back into place without asking me? Or for cheating on me? I left everything and everyone for you, because you're all that needed and you'd convinced me so well and I blindly followed you everywhere like a lost puppy. But I guess you weren't just happy with me were you?"

"No baby it's not like that" he says coming closer to you and grabbing your wrists in his fingers. You place your palms on his stomach and try to push him away but he just keeps pulling you closer till he's hugging you tightly. "She just came onto me, I ignored her as much as I could reall-"

"So she just happened to come onto your dick huh" you say sadly.

"I'm sorry, baby I truly am. I love you too much I'm sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. I only love you, I'll never leave you again to go out with my stupid friends. I'll stop talking to them too I promise. I love you. Let me show you how much I do" he whispers the last part in your ear.

You close your eyes and feel his hand circle you waist, the other coming to move your face to give him access to your throat. God you love it when he holds you close and kisses you all over.

Frankly speaking you aren't surprised someone tried something with JK, what did shock you was that he actually went along with it. God it makes your blood boil to think someone even had the guts to take him from you.

Grabbing his cheeks with your palms and rising to your feet you smash your lips on to his. If you want him to forget that bitch, you gotta fuck him like your life depends on it.

Pushing him on the couch you remove your top and straddle his lap. Gently moving his hair away from his face you lick your lips and kiss him again and then you kiss his neck and his chest and his abs and fuck him so good neither of you want to stop till you physically cannot fuck anymore.

[arklayraven]

Imma make a public post version for this because some people need to hear/understand this. (Might not be perfect because won't lie, I am tired while writing this. lol But need to get this out.)

Speaking as a fan to other fans here, who are fans of indie VN games, especially the nsfw/mature ones.

To the people who keep demanding the devs make their games accessible more by putting them on the app store.

Please understand, that isn't as easy or even often possible, especially when it comes to the mature/nsfw content.

The app stores are VERY STRICT about a lot of things there. Especially when it comes to nsfw/mature content, even if it's fiction.

I understand you want to play the game. I understand you might only own a phone to do anything now. So that means you can't play the game that is only available on PC.

But you need to understand, sometimes there's some games or content in general. You won't have access to, and make peace with it.

If you only want the dev to make the game available on the app store for the nsfw content. Then sadly you might be unhappy to hear or learn, it will very likely never see the light of day there.

You're gonna make countless indie developers, who most likely are single people working ALONE on one single game. Which isn't easy to do alone I'm sure. (Y'all have my respect single indie game devs). Put more stress on their shoulders and life, to make a game available on mobile just for you.

To then most likely complain later on, you're not happy about it because you want the nsfw version. Which isn't possible to have on the app store, unless you want the dev to deal with lots of trouble.

Which will most likely make the devs feel more stressed or upset, because it might feel like wasted time spent there. Than focusing on the single port of their game they're already busy/stressing enough over as is.

I get you want to see the steamy good stuff from the game. But again, you sometimes gotta make peace with the fact, might not ever see it any time soon or if ever.

And before you ask or wonder:

No, the single indie dev can't magically bend the rules of whole app store. To just make their single nsfw game available on the store just for you.

For example to help you understand how serious this is:

A very well known popular game called What In Hell Is Bad? which is known for its mature themes and content in it. Especially nsfw stuff. Has dealt with and often still deals with issues trying to keep the game up on the app stores, because of the strict rules there.

Even when they censor stuff, or do updates to try to patch things up from the game to not get taken down anymore. (Which obviously makes some fans upset because they want that nsfw/mature stuff)

They still deal with issues in times, and you can only imagine the stress/hell the devs have to deal with over that. Along with running the game, making sure bugs are dealt with if/when any occur, keeping track of things here and there, etc.

And this is a multi dev run game company mind you, with plenty of money I'm sure now. But yet still can't get a pass to keep things up without issues.

If they are dealing with all of those issues like that...Can you even imagine how much hell a single indie game dev will deal with too, over their own mature game?

It'll be massive stress and hell. Which they don't deserve to deal with ever I feel.

So please, understand this all. As well don't demand for stuff from a single indie game dev, that isn't possible.

From one bog region person to the other (Bourtanger moor, don't live there anymore but grew up there)

What are your bogs like? We have 'high bogs' (peat moss growing over time, sadly mostly destroyed for fuel) and 'low bogs' (depressions of water filling up with plant material and becoming bogs, also mostly destroyed but not *as much*)

I like how when you go for a walk in a high bog the ground is springy, there's willows everywhere. The water is very low in calcium so you don't have to fight the caulk in your shower and kettle as much as in other places. I like the willows everywhere where there's bogs. And the (possibly apocryphical) story that once, a bunch of farmers won against much more well-armored knights because the knights all sunk into the bog

That's so interesting!

I think what you call "high bogs," we call "raised bogs"! We call them 'raised' because intact ones are big mounds, looming like a big wet sponge sitting 'raised' above the lower landscape around them. They can have peat up to 7m deep, and feel very bouncy when you walk on them!

Unfortunately, almost all raised bogs in Ireland are severely degraded. So much of the peat has eroded that many aren't even raised above the nearby landscape anymore. Historically, people subsistence farming in the area cut drains into the bog to make them more valuable grazing lands, or cut turf out of them for fuel. COLONIALISM is the villain of our story as always - the British government cut down all our forests to build their navy, fuel their forges, etc. All the locals had for fuel was turf (=bits of peat) and whatever bits of scrap wood they could steal without the landlord's men noticing, mar dhea.

Now turf cutting is an established cultural practice that many rural people can be very touchy about. A colleague of mine had got death threats because someone thought the ecological surveys she was doing on bogs would prevent him from cutting tuf.

Everywhere a bog is cut, it leaves a weeping wound. The drainage effect causes the bog to sink slowly over time, even where the surface of the bog looks pretty intact .

About your knights .... there's a very famous image which I can't find right now, of a raised bog in England. In the victorian era, someone sank a metal rod into this raised bog. The top of the rod was just at ground level. That rod is now notably taller than a person. That's over 6ft of peat, gone! Evaporated into the air! All that captured carbon - released back into the atmosphere.

The other kinds of bogs we have here are 'blanket bogs' so called because they are draped over mountains like blankets. The peat on these are thinner - usually less than 3m, and sometimes only a few cm.

(This is an aside but Irish place names often have the word "Droim" in them. That's a word that means ridge or hill, but also means back, on a human or an animal. When I stand on a height and look across at the peat-draped hills, I can see exactly why that's the same word. The peat hills look like the bony shoulders of sleeping giants. Drumlin, from my url, derives from "little ridge")

The biology of our mountain bogs is pretty similar to our raised bogs. The same species live there. The threats are similar too. Blanket bogs aren't cut for fuel as often because they were that bit less accessible, but it did happen.

And, the blanket bogs are getting damaged by more modern pressures at an extraordinary rate 🙃🙃🙃 But I will go on about government-imposed sheep quotas and plantation invasive forestry another day!

For now I'll say - they're doing some really amazing things with peatland restoration in Scotland these days! I went to a presentation and I was just astounded how much they can restore the most damaged and degraded bog, all with a few diggers and well educated digger operators. Once you raise the water table to 4cm below the bog surface, the moss does its magic and it becomes a carbon sink again!

I really love bogs. I've been on so many lovely bogs. Bog woodland, like you describe, with willows and birch and alder. Long flat mountaintops covered in pools and hummocks of moss. Waist high heather on steep rocky peatland, which is a pain to walk through, where your boots get sticky with pollen.

One time I lay on my stomach to plunge my arms into a bog lake. The water was black. I couldn't feel the bottom. I reached back, and back, and I realised that not only was the lake bottomless, it didn't have sides. I was lying on a floating outcrop of moss, over 50cm thick.

One good thing that came out of today's early morning trip out for more bullshit bloodwork: I found some promising-looking vegetables, which are pretty exotic by local standards but remind me of home! One of the benefits of living in an immigrant-heavy neighborhood. (Doesn't really matter where from IME, just as long as it's got longer warmer growing seasons there.) Hasty lap shot of today's haul when I was about to head home.

Much better view after getting home! Some nice young examples of one common Middle Eastern variety of summer squash, along with some okra. Which was borderline overgrown by my standards, but it didn't feel like it was going all tough and dried out yet--and it's the nicest fresh okra my admittedly near-hermit ass has spotted in years.

On the way home this morning, I got Mr. C to drop me at the nearby shopping center, so I could pick up an Instabox package (shoes) and enjoy the weather and a little exercise while "strolling" the rest of the way.

It was still early enough that at least half the businesses weren't even open yet, but that also meant that things were enough less busy that I felt like I could get in more easily for a better look at a couple of stores I'd wanted to check out more. One of them a halal butcher shop with attached fruit and vegetable shop just across from there, obviously run by the same people. Both are usually mobbed enough that I haven't felt like shoving myself in--especially with the chair.

The butcher side was still not looking so accessible, even with only a couple of other customers in there, plus a few workers finishing getting things set up for the day. I also figured that I didn't really need to go on an early-morning meat buying spree in hot weather--much less when my backpack was already completely full of shoebox, and carrying capacity was already pretty limited. So, no meat for me.

The other side did, however, lure me over with some gorgeous plums. Which sadly turned out to still be so hard that I noped away from those. Yes, I am that produce prodder, and I can be particular. Was hoping they would have some nice leafy greens out front today, but no such luck.

But, then I did spot the okra and then the squash.

I didn't grab much today, since I am the only one in the house who really likes either thing. Plus the okra was running the equivalent of US$7.69/kg, or roughly $3.50/lb. 😓 Squash was $2.90/ or $1.30/lb by comparison. I got away at about $2.50 for both of them together, which really wasn't at all bad by local standards. I am also cheap as hell sometimes and also still mentally comparing with prices on locally grown squash and okra in a much more rural area 15-20 years ago when I was last buying anything back home.

I am also now lowkey pining for some Floyd County peaches, and J. Random Farmer's cantaloupes that he's selling off his truck by the road. Then there's the fresh just-picked regional variety corn. 🙄

If that okra is any good and I see more there in nearly as good a shape, I may have to pick up enough more to try pickling a few jars of it. That's one thing that I do miss sometimes, and I don't really want to try with the frozen stuff--which is usually better for cooking than what I see fresh anymore.

The produce side also carries a bunch of dried fruits and nuts, and some other loose bulk goods including some interesting-looking Afghan brown sugar in like fist-sized chunks which I'd never seen before, but made me think of panela or jaggery. May need to try me some of that.

Also looks like the place to go if you want a sack of pumpkin seeds or similar at reasonable prices! Today I did not, and also did not particularly want to carry that home in my lap because that would have been the only place for it.

Their produce is all out front, but I did go ahead and bull my way back through the rest of the store to get a good look at the dry goods. Needed to shove a couple of obstructions out of the way in the narrow aisles, but I was the only customer in there at that point and idgaf. It was well worth a look around. May need to go back another morning after a few things that looked good.

There is also a spice shop a couple of doors down, which always smells heavenly to go past but is usually so packed that even Mr. C hesitates to peruse it on foot. There were few enough people in there too that I had to roll through and case the joint. Did look and smell like some quality stuff at decent prices. Also some pretty good looking bulk bin dried fruits and nuts and other snack items, and some assorted Middle Eastern sweets. I didn't buy anything there either today, but will probably need to make a morning raid on that too before too long.

But yeah, the day was not all bad. I also got to see a delightful young Boxer out for a walk on the way home.

Mmmm...handmade ceramic bowl with handpicked morel mushrooms!

I made this bowl a few months back in a ceramics class at a local art studio. Sadly, I don't have access to their plethora of glaze buckets anymore. I'm hoping to be able to re-create the lemon over turquoise combo in the basement eventually. All of the pottery in this post currently resides in my kitchen, and it's holding up really well.

And of course Charlie helps watch out for bugs as I prepared the dinner.

----------

The giant science facility resembles something like a ghost town at night. All workers and lab technicians have clocked off and gone home. Labs are dark and deserted.

Miguel has no clue what time it is, but he suspects it’s the early hours of the morning.

He’s led through the building while his hands are still tied behind his back and his mouth still gagged. Dark, glaring eyes trained on the large man in front, leading the way. He clearly has somewhere very specific in mind.

One of the large man’s employees joins the small group of men walking down a corridor towards a lift. He carries a small metal case. Miguel eyes it suspiciously.

“Your wife was a very intelligent woman,” Kingpin says as he presses a button to call the elevator.

The sound of the lift mechanics whir into action behind the double metal sliding doors.

All Miguel can do is watch, scowling at Kingpin as he waits for the elevator to arrive.

Occasionally, his wrists tugs at his restraints, testing their strength. He longed to have the gag removed from his mouth. It is uncomfortable to say the least, feeling the dry cloth between his jaws.

A ding indicates the lift has arrived and the doors slide open, allowing the group to enter.

Kingpin looks like he is revelling in this exercise of gradually riling Miguel up. He takes a breath before speaking again.

“Her knowledge about spiders was extensive. Perfect for the job really,” he pauses as his captive wriggles aggressively.

The smug looking man seems to have touched a nerve.

“Such a shame she got too righteous about the nature of the project. She should have known you can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs…”

A now livid Miguel struggles against his restraints once again, more violently this time as the lift climbs up the building. As he pulls, he notices that his bonds feel like they’re getting weaker.

Kingpin watches with glee as his captive is pulled away from him. The angry lion doesn’t look quite so scary, tied up and gagged. He continues taunting Miguel, pushing in the dagger further, giving it a cruel sharp twist.

“I can show you where she worked, if you like? I bet you were so proud of her, working for a major corporation like Alchemax. And a leading scientist in her field too!”

His voice is in a mocking tone which pissed Miguel off even more.

“Sadly, it all went wrong for her when she couldn’t deal with testing the serum on live subjects anymore. Her refusal to cooperate after that was most frustrating.”

Between moments of pure anger, Miguel felt distraught that Maria went through this at work and couldn’t open up about it at home.

The lift’s metal doors slide open again revealing the bio-engineering floor. Lights flicker on as someone flips the switch while Kingpin leads Miguel into the room where the experiments took place…

***

Your car grinds to a halt in front of the Alchemax building. You have parked it in a space but it is hideously wonky, but frankly, you don’t care as you have bigger fish to fry.

Alchemax security guards spot you running towards the building, preparing to intercept you. For once, you find yourself glad that you’re able to shout that you work for Kingpin as you run past and dodge their attempts to grab you.

You knew they’d allow you through if you said you work for the large mafia boss. It seems Kingpin has Alchemax in his pocket, whether they liked it or not.

You need to go to the vault, which is under Alchemax. Kingpin and anyone who works for him unfortunately has access to it. Take a lift and select the basement floor.

Garcia’s voice echoes in your mind as you remember his instructions as you burst into the foyer of the science facility and head to the nearest lift you can find that goes to the basement.

The light on the call button blinks furiously as you press it repeatedly, willing this damn lift to hurry the hell up. Time is of the essence, you can’t waste any of it.

To your surprise one of your colleagues appears on the other side of the opening sliding doors. Your eyes lock on his own as they go wide. Realising who you are, he charges at you, shunting you against a wall as you yelp in shock.

“Kingpin thought you might show up, good job I found you first eh?”

You thrash against him in frustration. Every second that passes is precious time being wasted.

Adrenaline runs at an all time high within you as your heart pounds against your ribs frantically. You have to get away from him if you want to stand any chance at rescuing Miguel.

A tight grip forms around your arm as he tries to turn you away from him.

“Come on, the exit’s this way.”

“Let me go!” you scream as you jam your knee into his groin.

Your colleague cries out in agony and lets you go. His hands rushing to his crotch as he buckles over.

“You bitch!” he screams through gritted teeth, his seething expression fixed on you.

To make sure he doesn’t retaliate or follow, you hit him hard in the head to knock him out.

A thud fills the air as he collapses on the linoleum floor unconscious. His suit jacket flops open revealing something that catches your eye. You pause as you look down at it.

A gun in its holster is out on display. You’re not really a fan of guns, but you might be entering a kill or be killed situation. It’s best to be prepared - just in case.

Reaching down, you pull it out and take it with you. It feels weird to be carrying a weapon, as if things have suddenly become much more serious.

Finally, the lift door closes with you inside it and it begins its descent into the basement. Closing your eyes, you take a breath to calm yourself as you try to remember the next load of instructions Garcia had given you.

***

Miguel half expected that someone would have shown up by now. He knew Gabi would have called somebody. What’s holding people up?

His jaw flexes uncomfortably while his gag persists. Sympathy starts to rise for those he has gagged in the past. But at least they deserved it…

A lab surrounds him, along with Kingpin’s men.

Around the perimeter of the room are counters with cupboards underneath, stored with equipment; beakers; vials, microscopes and petri dishes - just to name a few.

Visions of his wife, Maria, sitting at the counter and running experiments dances in his mind as he looks around. Tears threaten to well up in his eyes as he remembers her but he blinks them away.

Then his gaze focuses on the centre of the room. A modified metal slab-like table stands ominously. He immediately gets a bad feeling about it. Straps are fixed halfway down and at the bottom of the table.

“I had the room set up exactly how it was when I last saw Maria alive. I thought you’d appreciate that.”

Kingpin chuckles darkly as he watches Miguel’s eyes fixate on the table.

“You see, I had to have her still enough so I could teach her a lesson. A lesson I considered teaching your new lady friend but I managed to find a way to get her to comply.”

There’s that wicked grin again. If Miguel had seen it, he’d have tried to smash that smile to smithereens, but he was busy putting the pieces together instead after the large man spoke.

His chest rises and falls as his breathing quickens. His mind, swimming with thoughts while he feels the room spin. Shock, anger and grief makes his entire body shake.

“Of course, I had to make it look like she had done it herself. Couldn’t have anyone pointing the blame at me now could I?”

Miguel is at his limit. Kingpin has more or less confessed to murdering Maria. And he looks so damn smug about it too. How he would love to wipe that smile off of his face. He fantasises doing it in the most hideous way possible. A growl rumbles low in his chest as his muscles tenses up.

With one last hard pull, the captive yanks at his bonds and breaks out. Rushing towards his captor.

Kingpin’s eyes widen momentarily and retreats behind a curtain formed by his men who all grab Miguel as he charges.

Muffled shouts and screams of rage fill the air as he kicks and thrashes around.

The force of Kingpin’s men drags and lifts the incensed man up onto the table.

One by one, each limb is strapped down but not without a violent struggle.

Wildly desperate and frightened brown eyes look around frantically. Searching for any kind of escape. Any kind of help. The sense of hopelessness engulfs him. Any chance to escape diminishes by the second. 

Pulling against the straps is useless as they’re firmly attached to the table by chains, but he still tries out of sheer desperation.

“Roll up his left sleeve for me,” Kingpin orders one of his men, his tone commanding.

As someone carries out the task, the boss opens the metal case and produces a serum in a syringe equipped with a needle, all ready to go.

“Your wife was working on creating the perfect serum for me, to genetically enhance humans. But unfortunately, she was never able to make one that didn’t kill the test subject.”

Kingpin now begins his slow and taunting approach to Miguel. A broad, smug grin stamped across his face. An evil glint shines in his eyes.

“I’ll let you have a taste of her work. You can experience everything she went through in her final moments. And then you’ll be reunited with her. How sweet…”

Now standing right next to the violently thrashing man on the table, he speaks again.

“Keep him still for me. He’s just as wriggly as his wife was.” He speaks louder just so he can be heard over his captive’s angry roars.

Four pairs of hands working in unison press down on his limbs, holding him still. His chest heaves as he screams through the cloth. Eyes open wide and his brow severely furrowed as he watches the needle plunge into his lower arm and the contents of the syringe begins to empty.

Searing pain spreads through his veins. Every muscle tenses and an unpleasant tingling sensation crashes over him like a violent, freak wave on a beach. His body erupts with heat while his lungs struggle to get enough air in them through the gag.

Withdrawing the needle, Kingpin watches with glee as his captive is reacting - badly - to the serum.

Kingpin chuckles darkly, almost getting drowned out by Miguel’s agonised yells and screams.

“This, Mr. O'Hara, is only just the beginning. Sit tight.”

***

Rows upon rows of safe-like vaults are in front of you. Many corridors and alleyways of secure containment boxes to choose from.

I couldn’t store the antidote with project #2099 as I had to keep it safe. So I created my own project, #2100. Find that vault, the code is Maria’s birthday, September 28th.

Looking at signs on the walls, you see Alchemax has run thousands of experiments, too many to count. You look for a sign that indicates where the projects in the 2000’s are and follow the direction it points you in.

The sea of numbers goes down in numerical order as you stride along a corridor. Your eyes skimming over each project number until you find #2100.

September 28th… You think to yourself as you look at the number pad on the door of the box. It’s a three digit code.

Thinking quickly, you punch in 928 and a green light followed by a beep follows, indicating you entered in the correct code.

As the small vault unlocks, your eyes wander over to the containment box to the left, #2099. You sincerely hope you don’t need what’s inside #2100.

Pulling the door open, you grab a small case and run, not even taking the time to close the vault again.

Now the real hard work begins. You have absolutely no clue as to what floor Kingpin and Miguel are on. Entering the lift again, you spam the close button and press the first floor to begin the tedious task of finding the correct floor. You just hope you reach them in time.

If it wasn’t for pressing the button for each floor in the lift, you would have lost count of the number of levels you have tried in the large science facility. Your only saving grace is that every floor is pitch black and silent, suggesting no one is there.

So when you come to floor fifteen and you see lights on and hear bone chilling screams you know you’re in the right place. Your heart plummets as soon as you hear the sound.

As you rush out of the elevator, you see the bio-engineering lab is lined with windows all around it and the scene before you almost stops your heart completely.

Seeing Miguel screaming, sweating and writhing in agony on the table makes you worry you’re too late, but you can’t stop now. He’s restrained and gagged, in desperate need of help.

With the case in one hand and a gun in the other, you enter the lab. Kingpin and his goons seem preoccupied with their captive.

Lifting the weapon, your trembling finger rests on the trigger, aiming directly at Kingpin.

You steel yourself and make peace with what you have to do. If the roles were reversed, Kingpin wouldn’t think twice.

In reality, he’s killing the man you care about right in front of you, and he’d do the same to you if he knew that you’re there.

You promised Gabi you’d do everything in your power to get her papa home. Pulling that trigger is in your power. And that is what you have to do.

It’s scary how easily it can be done. Pulling that trigger wasn’t difficult physically. A shot rings out. The other four men look up as they flinch, while Kingpin crashes to the floor, dead. The force shakes the entire room.

You feel sick at the thought of what you have done but as you swallow hard, you bravely press on.

While Miguel continues to roar and thrash at his restraints, the other four men hold their hands up in surrender.

“Get the fuck out of here!” you yell at them while pointing the gun in their direction.

They didn’t need telling twice. As they scatter, you grab one roughly by their suit. Your aggressiveness surprises you.

“Call off the attack on O’Hara’s people while you’re at it.”

The man nods silently and leaves the room after you release him.

Heavy panting steals your attention.

Miguel, dripping with sweat, thrashes his head side to side as he reacts to the serum.

Prizing open the case, you seize the antidote, nicely prepared for injection already.

If the antidote needs to be administered, inject directly into the serum’s injection site.

You remember the last bit of Garcia's instructions. Rushing to the table in the centre of the lab, you urgently look for where the serum had been injected. It doesn’t take long, the skin on his left arm is a bright angry red and is hot to the touch.

You do everything you can to not cry. His pain and desperation is palpable. And the sight before you hurts you to look at. Seeing him so distressed hits you hard. You can’t bear to see him gagged. His mouth is freed as you pull at the cloth, although parts of you wish you hadn’t as his agonising screams hit you harder.

“Miguel!” You call out to him as you’re not even sure he knows you’re there.

Your hand caresses his contorted face of agony as you lean in close.

“I need you to stay still for me. I know it’s hard, but you’ve got to try. Please!”

He roars with eyes clamped shut as a fresh wave of pain rolls over him, you nearly scream when you spot two enlarged canines.

Desperately stroking his face and holding it more firmly, you try again.

“Please! You’ve got to do this for me!”

Miguel huffs as he registers a kinder touch. He grits his now razor sharp teeth as he tries to stay still long enough for you to do what you need to do.

Reaching over his shuddering body, you hold the needle above the injection site.

“I’m sorry if this hurts, Miguel…” you mutter as you press the needle into his skin.

His body immediately arches upwards beneath you, almost bucking you off of him. Another yell of pain erupts from his wide open mouth.

“I know!” you sob, tears streaming down your face “I know - please, stay still a little while longer…”

Your thumb presses down on the plunger of the syringe, pushing the life saving serum into his bloodstream. Hoping against hope that you’re not too late.

Once the syringe is totally empty, you pull it out and drop it as you return to Miguel’s top half.

As before, your hands cup his damp face, moving any hair stuck against his skin while he pants heavily.

What you would give for him to open his eyes. You wish for him to see you. To see that you came for him. To save him.

Relief washes over you as his breathing slows. The large heavy panting turns into short huffs. Tense muscles begin to relax as you continue to stroke his sweat soaked skin.

“Ga- Gabi…” he starts to mutter between his puffs as his breathing regulates.

A relieved smile spreads across your face. Snaking your arm under the back of his neck, you cradle his head gently.

“She’s at home, waiting for her papa.”

Miguel’s eyes remain closed, but he cracks a faint smile across his parted lips. You see just the tip of one of his large canine teeth peeking out. Just what did that serum do to him, you wonder as your fingers now run adoringly through his damp hair.

In that moment of peace, despite what he has just been through, you’re happy. You’re still not entirely sure if he knows who you are; but,  you’re holding him close and caressing his hair. Something you thought you’d never be able to do again.

Leaning down, you plant a loving, tender kiss on his forehead as your fingers return to his cheek. Making the most of this precious moment.

As you lean close, the cold hard chain of his wrist restraints presses against your body. You realise the poor man is still bound to the table.

Placing his head back down gently, taking care not to move him suddenly, you start to undo the straps around his wrists.

As you go to move his hand away from the strap, you feel something sharp snagging your skin.

“Ouch!”

Your hand instinctively jumps away as you look down at what stabbed you. Nothing can stop your jaw from dropping in total shock.

Protruding out from his fingertips are razor edged, bloodied claws.

Scooping up his large right hand in yours, you inspect the talons more closely. Your fingers ghost delicately over them and then run along down his long, slender, manly digits. All the while Miguel remains calm as his breathing slows even more.

The silence between you is punctuated with the sounds of the velcro on the straps ripping apart from itself as you free him. His long limbs are heavy and you’re careful not to hurt yourself with the strange sharp claws on his other hand.

Looking at the clear result of the serum injection, you wonder if this is what Kingpin wanted for the men who do his dirty work? Has he managed what no other living thing could?

As you ask yourself those questions, you start to hear that his breathing has become laboured. The blissful feeling of relief drains from you as that sound doesn’t exactly fill you with confidence.

His brow creases as if he’s feeling pain again and begins to gasp for air.

Rushing to his side, you pick up his hand and squeeze it in hope to provoke a response from him. Your gaze desperately searches his expression, pleading for him to relax again.

“Miguel?” Your voice quivers slightly as you lean over him more.

Your other hand rests on his right shoulder and you start to shake him. He’s not responding.

“Miguel?”

You shake him harder as his laboured gasps continue but he still does not respond.

Something’s wrong - very wrong.

“No, no, no, no, no…” you murmur as your hand goes up to his cheek and tap him gently. Panic sets in. This isn’t supposed to happen. Has the antidote actually worked?

His brow furrows more as his breathing becomes faster and shallower.

“No - don’t… Don’t you dare…”

More tears stream down your face as you watch his struggle, totally powerless and without a clue in how to help him.

To your absolute horror, peace falls upon him once more. But the wrong kind of peace. His brow relaxes totally and his breathing stops all together.

“No…”

Eyes frantically search for signs of life in his face, hoping that he’ll move again in a second. But without any further change you search for a pulse in his neck. Nothing.

“No!”

Dropping his hand to his side, you feel his chest for a heart beat. Nothing. He has gone into cardiac arrest.

Shit!

A loud sob fills the air from your parted lips. Without even thinking, your body takes over. Clambering up onto the table, you straddle his body as you place the heel of your hand against the centre of his chest.

You feel something hard underneath his clothes. Undoing the first couple of buttons of his shirt, reveals a bulletproof vest. Nothing can get in the way of your attempt at CPR so you continue to undo all items of clothing covering his torso.

Once again, you place the heel of your hand in the centre of his chest while pressing the palm of your other hand on top. You push down hard enough to compress by about five centimetres and repeat thirty times at a fast pace.

“You’re not dying on me…” you pant between compresses. “Not today.”

The first thirty compressions are complete. Leaning forward you gently tilt his head back and pull at his chin to part his lips. Pinching his nose with your finger and thumb, you seal your mouth over his and blow firmly, twice.

His lifeless body rocks with each compression as you start the process all over again in a desperate bid to revive him. Sobbing and panting you think about his daughter. You said to Gabi you’d get her papa back, you can’t let her down.

“Come on!” You yell as you desperately will him to take a breath, open his eyes or do something!

It feels like an age since he stopped breathing, but it’s probably just been a minute.

More tears roll down your cheek as you continue to perform CPR. Your knees ache kneeling on the cold metal table but you press on. You don’t care if you can’t feel your legs anymore, if it means you bring him back.

“Damn it Miguel!”

Panic increases again as you do another thirty compressions and prepare to give him two more rescue breaths.

Suddenly, his body moves on its own as you seal your lips over his. The unexpected movement makes you pull away and gasp as he draws a sharp intake of breath. Relief washes over you as you see him breathe for himself for the first time since he fell silent.

His eyes snap wide open as they lock onto yours immediately. However they’re not how you remember them. The beautiful warm brown they used to be, is now replaced by a deep red.

“(Y/N)?”

Whumptober Day 27

"You drew stars around my scars, but now I'm bleeding" / Matches / Scars / "Let me see."

Whumper came home for a quick bite before continuing their nightly vampiric fun.

"Whumpee come here", they commanded, "Blood Bag, I need your neck", they yelled sarcastically.

Whumper quickly checked the rooms.

Their glowing eyes darkened in frustration. They slammed several doors on their way out of the house, managing to break a mirror.

Whumpee quickly darted through the night crowds. They interweaved with the drug users and the erotic dancers, anything they could do to mask their scent.

They tucked a few pieces of trash in their pockets and kept running.

They were about to round a corner when a foot came out of nowhere. Whumpee tripped and fell to the ground on their stomach. They gasped trying to catch their breath

"What are you doing?", a familiar voice asked as their hand reached down and grabbed a fist full of hair, and lifted Whumpee up.

Whumpee winced and quickly stood to their feet, following the direction their hair was being pulled.

"Please don't", Whumpee gasped, and reached for the person's wrist.

"Don't what, punish you?", the person pulled Whumpee's head to their own lips to whisper in their ear, "I give you freedom in my home, and you use that to run away. Do you want to be tied to the chair again? That will make you a lot easier for me to access, I don't have to let you be free in my house, I'm doing that to be nice."

"Please, I'm sorry", Whumpee winced as their hair was tugged around.

"We are going to walk home now, got it", Whumper hissed, "if you make a scene and draw attention to us, I will kill everyone there. That will be a lot of blood on your hands."

Whumper released their grip on Whumpee, "do I make myself clear."

"Yes", Whumpee was on the verge of tears.

"Walk then", Whumper pointed, then followed.

Whumpee whimpered as they both walked through the crowd of people. They kept their eyes to the ground, not wanting to put others in danger.

Once home, Whumper pushed Whumpee into a chair and tied them down.

"Please I won't run", Whumpee sobbed.

"It's almost morning, you'll sleep here so I know I won't have any surprises when I wake up", Whumper finished a knot.

"I come home to get a drink, and you're gone. I waste the rest of my night hunting you down", Whumper ranted, "I literally, just, you have everything you need. Food, water, clothes, everything you require. Your living condition is more than fair. Better than most blood slaves I've seen."

"It's not enough when you are forced to be a slave, and to be fed from", Whumpee glared at Whumper, "I don't want this life, I want my old life."

Whumper groaned and rubbed their face, "that life doesn't exist anymore, you sold yourself."

Whumpee looked down sadly.

"Exactly", Whumper crossed their arms, "you sold yourself, don't make me out to be the bad guy, I'm only trying to survive. You willingly signed your life away, and I paid for you."

Whumpee felt their eyes tear up. Unfortunately, that was the truth, and they hated every bit of it. They looked down at the floor.

Whumper rolled their eyes, "I'm sorry to bring up such a touchy subject, but you've really pissed me off tonight. Remember, I don't have to do nice things for you. I just have to keep you alive."

"Why do you then, you make that threat daily, why do you", Whumpee stated.

"Because I actually think about you and your needs", Whumper collapsed on the couch, "plus your blood doesn't taste good when your miserable."

"I'm sorry", Whumpee mumbled, "for running away."

Whumper sighed, "there's a start at least."

"Are you going to feed from me, ma-master?", Whumpee shook.

"Yes, though you smell like the streets, which isn't that appealing", Whumper sighed.

Whumper went behind Whumpee and pushed their hair to the side. Their neck was covered in scars from their feedings.

"I only need a little", Whumper stated before sinking their fangs into Whumpee's neck.

"Ymph", Whumpee grimaced as the fangs went into their skin. You never truly get used to that sensation.

Whumper took a few gulps, then sighed.

"Okay, I don't know what you walked through, but I need you to shower. *snif snif* gag, pronto... ", Whumper groaned, and held their nose, "you smell so bad."

"Oh", Whumpee tried to reach for their pockets, but remembered they were tied down, "I put some trash in my pockets to cover my scent."

"Really, you were that desperate", Whumper frowned, and reached for Whumpee's pockets, "am I that bad?"

"You are so disgusting", Whumper gagged when they pulled out the trash, "shower now, I'll dispose of this."

Whumpee couldn't hide a grin while Whumper untied them.

"I'm glad you're amused", Whumper complained.

"Whumper's one weakness, their senses are stronger than they should be", Whumpee rubbed their wrist.

"Tell me about it", Whumper carried the trash like it was the plague, "shower now, you can have breakfast after. We'll go to bed soon after that."

Whumpee hurried to the bathroom, quick enough not to see the broken glass on the floor.

They screamed as their bare foot flayed open.

Whumper came running.

They smelt the blood before they saw it.

"Shit, I must have broken the mirror when I was looking for you", Whumper hurried to lift Whumpee up and carry them into the bathroom, "let me see", he pulled Whumpee's foot into view.

Whumpee shook trying not to scream as Whumper licked the blood.

"Let's let my saliva do its thing. The bleeding should stop shortly, plus it's being disinfected", Whumper looked over the Whumpee's foot, "I'm glad no glass got stuck."

Whumpee sobbed, "it hurts, Whumper it really hurts."

"I-I know Whumpee, I'm sorry", Whumper looked at the foot again, "the bleeding is stopping so that good, we will have to keep it cleaned. Never say I don't do anything nice, because I just licked your nasty foot."

Whumpee gave a small smile as tears fell down their face, "I guess you won't have to worry about me running away for a while."

"I guess not", Whumper sighed, "I don't think you'll be walking around for a while. You got yourself pretty deep."

Whumpee whimpered, "I think my adrenaline is going down, im about to pass o...."

Whumper pulled them close as they went unconscious, "you lost more blood than I would have liked. Your body caught up with you."

Whumpee's smell migrated into Whumper's senses.

"I guess I'm giving you a bath", Whumper sighed, "there's no way I'm allowing you to smell like this", Whumper rested Whumpee on the bathroom floor, and went to prepare the tub, "a bath might help your body a little anyways."

Whumpee made small noises as Whumper cleaned them, and dressed them.

Whumpee woke up two hours later on the couch. They found a note by their hand.

"I went ahead and gave you a bath while you were unconscious. Your foot is cleaned and bandaged and should heal on its own. Try not to use it too much while I'm asleep, at least. I had to go to my coffin. I'll be up at the normal time. I left some snacks and drinks for you and some other things to entertain you so you wouldn't get up, so please rest. Lastly, I cleaned the glass and blood up, so hopefully no more accidents. I'll see you when the sun goes down, Whumper."

Whumpee reached for a snack and squirmed into the couch to get comfortable.

Their foot throbbed a little at the movements.

They winced, and wiped a stray tear.

"Pain in the neck", they sighed, "pun intended."

The great war II

Pairing: Shuri x fem!reader Warning: Spoilers, angst, mentions of drowning

part one

"Shuri stop this" The Queen begged her daughter to stop whatever she was planning to do "Safely escort the Queen back to Jabariland" Was all Shuri could say, ignoring her mother entirely. Two Jabari soldiers and Dora Milage escorted the Queen to an aircraft carrier. Despite her protest, Shuri could only mouth "I'm sorry mother" as Queen Ramonda disappear inside the aircraft.

Shuri fidgets a necklace you gave to her. She kissed the necklace and turned around to walk toward the lab. Nakia and Riri were trailing behind her. She was trying to recreate the heart-shaped herb. "She treated me like a sister, even if we only met yesterday, she treated me like family" Riri gently spoke once they were inside the lab. Shuri turned around to face her and smiled sadly. "She has always been that way," Shuri said and patted Riri's shoulder.

"Let us begin" Shuri announced and just like clockwork, the two of them returned to what they were previously doing.

Shuri can't help but think if this was right but for you, she was willing to kill anybody who tried to hurt you.

=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====

When Shuri finally took the herb, she thought it wasn't working. "Who did you see?" Nakia asked. Shuri was far too angry to answer and then punched the nearest mannequin. It went straight to the wall and made a dent.

The three of them were shocked that Riri uttered "Can I get some of that?" This made Shuri and Nakia look at her and back at each other. Nakia slowly approached Shuri and hugged her tightly. 'The Black Panther lives' was all she thought.

Shuri began to make her suit, adding improvements to her past designs.

When she lifted the Black Panther helmet she whispered "All this for you, my Y/N" and tried activating her suit.

=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====

The council was discussing possible strategies for the upcoming war. Suddenly an aircraft was hovering above them. It opened and released the Black Panther. Shuri gracefully landed at the center and then finally revealed herself.

She showed everyone who she's become and Queen Ramonda slowly approached her daughter. "My Shuri," She said and placed both her hands on either side of her daughter's cheek, caressing them softly then she hugged her tightly, remembering her son. "Show them who you are" The Queen whispered and Shuri nodded slowly.

M'baku approached her and stood in front of her, head held high. She does the same and they began to arm wrestle.

M'baku was defeated by the challenge. He clasps her hand and raises it high shouting"The Black Panther lives!" And the council chanted in celebration at their new protector.

"Namor thinks Wakanda is in a weak state, our queen almost getting killed and with our capital destroyed. He believes we have no protector, but now. Now is the time we strike" Shuri said to the elders.

An elder asked, "How, when we don't even know how to find him."

"we'll bring Namor to us" Shuri answered. Her mother wasn't interfering anymore, confident that her daughter could speak for herself.

"Here again?" asked the leader of the water tribe

“no”, Shuri answered "But a distant location in the sea"

Alright, M'baku said "Let's say this does work"He paused "assuming we can kill this guy, who can fly and is as strong as Hulk" HE added.

he looked around before continuing "Is murdering this guy the right solution?"

"You are calling for his death when his only crime was intimidation, "The leader of the water tribe said

"What has changed, Lord M'Baku?" Asked the leader of the mining tribe asked

"His soldiers, do not call him General or King, they call him Ku'kul'kan," M'baku said

"What is that?" Asked the water tribe leader again

"Feather serpent God" M'Baku replied which made the elder scratch his forehead "What?" M'Baku begins "You think because we live in the mountains we do not have access to books?" M'Baku asked again

"Elders" Shuri said "With your permission, I would like to talk to Lord M'baku alone," Shuri asked and all the elders, including the Queen, agreed. The Queen was the last one to exit and when she reached her daughter, she gave her a tight squeeze on her hand, a way of saying "Do what you need to do" And walked out to maybe retire in her temporary quarters.

"Namor's not finished," Shuri said "He promised to destroy the surface world. Now is our opportunity to take him, What are you afraid of?" Shuri asked angrily

"War" M'baku said "If Namor is indeed a God to his people, killing him will risk eternal war," M'baku explained

"And so what?" Shuri asked, "Wasn't my wife's life deserving of eternal war?" She added

"Of it was," M'baku wavered "Of course. she. was" And he continued. You were a big help in Wakanda. For a girl who's been through a lot, you still found it in your heart to help others. "But it is not what she have wanted for you" M'baku and Shuri held their gazes "It is not what I want for my people," M'baku said.

Shuri stood there and was deep in her thought., perhaps, rethinking about initiating war. But she recalled how both you and her mother suffered from the attack.

"You speak of my wife as if she's still here," Shuri said which cause M'baku's face to morph with confusion "Of what she wanted for me." The image of you smiling appeared in her mind "Her hopes and her dreams" And she paused. She winced about the thought of seeing you being saved by Nakia, not breathing replaying in her mind "But she's fighting for her life. In that bed, laying and fighting for her life!" Shuri shouted "Namor drowned her right in front of me" Shuri cried out. M'baku's face was saddened again "So her dreams, her goals, her hopes for me" Shuri paused to keep her emotions controlled "It doesn't exist, it doesn't matter anymore. What matters is what I want and what I want is Namor dead" She pointed at him "And you are going to help me get it" She continued and M'baku only hummed in agreement. "Good we leave in the morning" Shuri walked away, leaving M'Baku deep in his thought.

Shuri was walking to where her mother was staying. When she located it, she knocked and opened the door. Her mother was sitting beside you. She has been taking care of you since Shuri couldn’t.

You were in a coma since you received the toughest blow from the attack. Shuri and her team did everything that they could to save you, but here you are, laying and fighting for your life. Shuri approached you and leaned to kiss you on your forehead. You were stable for now, no one knows when you'll wake up. "Sthandwa I'm here now" Shuri whispered "I'm the Black Panther now" She proudly said in your ear.

Her mother could only watch her daughter long for someone she truly love. She stayed beside you and caress your hand, just enough to feel you. "Are you sure about this?" Queen Ramonda asked. Shuri looked up and said " For her, for you, for all of Wakanda, I will fight for it," Shuri said. Queen Ramonda couldn't help but reach out for her daughter and embrace her "Be careful, Show them who we are" She reminded her and Shuri nodded.

=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====∞=====

When Shuri and the others departure to fight and lure Namor into their trap. Back in Jabariland, people were managing you while the Queen said her goodbyes to her daughter. When a Jabari Woman cleaned your arm you moved and clasp her hand, which made the woman scream. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to startle you but where are we?" You asked while looking around at your surroundings "We are at Jabariland my lady" She replied.

'Why are we at Jaba- That's right Namor attacked the capital' You thought while remembering the events. When you were about to get up, the Queen arrived.

As she opened the door, she saw you sitting upward and when you saw her, you smiled genuinely. She ran to you and hugged you tight "Thank Bast your back" She said. You hugged her back. When you look around, you couldn’t find your wife so you had to ask where she is "Where is Shuri, my Queen?" And when she pulled away, she downcast her head and explained to you that Shuri was at war, fighting against Namor.

You were shocked at how Shuri handled the situation. "How long was I out?" You asked the Queen "Four days" The Queen replied. You nodded. However, your mind couldn't help but spiral into a whirlwind of bad images of Shuri getting hurt or even worse, her dying. You winced at the image of her death and when the Queen saw you visibly winced, she assured you everything would be fine and all they could do is wait for their safe return, hopefully.
