______________________________________________

ekko gets high on the way you look when you smoke.

a blunt—a neatly packed backwood—between your glossy lips. watching the flame from your lighter dance around illuminate your features with a golden light. the frayed end catches, glowing briefly before dissipating as you take the first pull, the cloud of smoke swirling around you, it was a sight for sore eyes.

ekko always watches in silence, the thick vapor settling in his lungs. he's definitely gotten contact high before, feeling the edges of his muscles relax ever so slightly a few minutes after you spark up.

this time was no different, of course.

he’d planned the night with excitement, he always did after realizing he wasn’t taking you out as often as he’d like. monthly dates; something to make up for it. he had no doubt this one was the date of all dates.

this time, he hit you with the, “i know a spot,” but insisted it had to be your car. no question. you didn’t mind—not like you were driving, anyway.

the place he drove you to could only be described as breathtaking. you were parked perched on a cliff overlooking a lake, moonlight glittering off of the water. waterfalls cascaded in the distance, crashing down on the water in a gentle purr. twinkling fairy lights hung from the trees, casting a soft glow around the area. you gasped in fascination, the cutest, "there's more!" replacing your expression with a smile.

he clicked a button on the car fob, the trunk clicking open. your eyes widen upon finding a picnic was laid out in perfect simplicity.

"how'd you hide this from me?" you marvel, crawling into the trunk. ekko snickers.

"you don't carry anything to your trunk."

"is this why you needed my car?"

"yeah, your trunk's actually able to be sat in."

you pout in adoration. "you're so cute," you thank him with a peck to his cheek.

__________________________________________

nearing the end of the night, the two of you migrated to the backseat, r&b nearly whispering in the background. in your search for a phone charger, you found a half-smoked blunt on the ash tray in your car.

"look at god," you grinned, settling back down and tugging a cheetah-print lighter out of your pocket, igniting the burnt end. closed windows jail the smoke inside the car walls, so when you exhaled the smoke it immediately flooded his nostrils. he coughed, a light chuckle overlapping his sputters.

"sorry," you whispered half-heartedly, resting your wrist against your knee. you catch his gaze, the arch of your brow raising. "you want a hit?"

"what?" he croaked after a beat. your arm straightens to offer the blunt to him. "...nah, i don't even know how."

"you forreal?" you snicker. "...want me to teach you?" consideration; then hesitation. his lips twist. "you don't have to if you don't want to."

eventually, his shoulders raise and fall and he murmurs 'i'll try,' your body already excitedly scooting closer to him the moment he shrugged.

"yay! okay, so all you wanna do is jus'...relax 'n inhale. don't suck, inhale. slow and steady."

he nods, half-lidded eyes following your hand as you brought the blunt to his plump lips. you wished you could get that image permanently tattoo'd on your lids. ekko takes a moment to register your instructions and inhales, yet he bails last second, tearing it from his mouth and coughing into his elbow. you can see smoke exiting his nostrils in tendrils with each cough, though.

"you almost got it!" you laugh, proud.

"yeah but—" he gets interrupted by his cough, his brows furrowing. "the taste—"

"you can taste it?" you question, intrigued.

"i think?"

hearing the giggle that filled the walls of the car while you took the blunt back from him made embarrassing himself a little more worth it.

"you looked good as fuck though," you praise.

"did i really?"

"yeah, but when do you not?"

a cool chuckle leaves his lips. "you right."

silence falls between you for a moment before a lightbulb flickers alive in your head.

"got an idea," you announce, shifting your weight closer toward him again. you bring the blunt back to your lips, taking a long pull that almost makes you pass out. your free thumb presses into his lip, prying his lips ajar.

leaning into his space, you blew the smoke into his mouth. he completed the kiss, eyes fluttering closed. searching hands immediately found purchase on your waist to pull your weight into his lap. you grind down into him, coaxing a moan out of him that has immediately has you soaked, pushing down into him again and again.

blood immediately starts rushing down and up at the same time. his dick pokes at your thigh and you laugh, surprised at how quick you got him worked up.

his hands creep up your wielding wrist, tugging the backwood toward his lips.

"tryin' again?" your head tilts, hips not halting their slow winding movements. ekko nods, peeking down at your hand as he draws air in. withdrawing, his head leans back and smoke fogs around the two of you.

"you did it baby, good. fast learner."

the slow drawl of your voice seeped into his ears and directly into his bloodstream.

he started to understand why you smoked so often. the euphoric high was rushing to his head and making his breath hitch, yet he wasn't sure if it was from you or the weed. his hips push up to meet yours.

"i need you so bad," he gasps huskily, pawing at your top.

"shiiiit, that's all you had to say."

you tug your shirt off, shifting awkwardly as you remove your pants before settling back into his lap. he pulls off his shirt at the same time, both of your clothes discarded carelessly into the front seat. you lean down to avoid straining your neck against the roof, but the kiss lingers so long that it didn't seem to matter.

you shift in his lap, gliding closer towards his knees. your hands dance down from his shoulder, fingertips gliding along scar-riddled skin. the trail of white hair tracking down from his naval to the hem of his pants was tantalizing, a sight you don't think you'll ever grow sick of. you absentmindedly stick your hand in his boxers and tug his length out, closing your fist around the tip. his abs quiver when you stroke along it.

you both hold your breath as you lift your hips, a featherlight grasp on the base of the head guiding him towards your core. his weeping tip presses against your clit before sliding towards your entrance. eventually you're sinking down, slow, torturous. two relieved exhales spew out, a silent 'finally' from the both of you.

"y'feel so good, firefly." he murmurs, brows tightly knitted together as you relax on your knees. his hands cup the sides of your ass, his teeth sinking into his bottom lip.

you lean onto his shoulder, rising slow and falling hard.

"shit," you mewl, grinding your hips into him. his hands fly to your hips, his own unintentionally jerking up to meet yours halfway.

you take another hit of the blunt, transporting the smoke to ekko's mouth as you kiss him. the car rocks with your desperate movements, windows fogging.

when you pull away, his glassy eyes dart down to watch where you two connect. you grab his chin and make him face you.

"you're like a fuckin' angel," you punctuate your words with a shaky hand gliding up the back of his buzzed head, white locks tangling in between your digits. "wish i could stay like this forever."

he smiles, though you barely see it when your eyes screw shut. the tip of his dick hits a spot that sends a burst up your spine and you straighten up, your crown thunking against the car roof.

you hear an amused laugh and you scowl. his hand immediately presses against the back of your neck and pulls you down. your sweaty foreheads bump together, eye contact struggling to become a possibility when yours keep rolling back.

for a moment, time slows down. your fingers fumble, dropping your blunt on the rubber mat lining your car floor. your hand meets his chest and you bounce on him, hungered and impatient. whines and groans bounce off the windows, your unoccupied hand patting around to find ekko's hand. clammy fingers intertwine; you squeeze, tight.

"gonna cum, fuck—love you so fuckin' much," you whisper, warm breath tickling his nose. he flashes you a smile and a groan takes it's place. the hand that once graced the back of your neck moved and his arm wraps around your waist, chests pressing against each other.

"i love you too," he whispers back, pressing his lips your collarbone. that phrase was all you needed, your eyes squeezing shut, your tongue stuttering his name and chanting it like a prayer. your hips falter as you reach your climax.

after catching your breath, you push ekko's arm off of you and brace yourself on his shoulders. rise, fall, rise, fall; you find your pacing again to bring him to completion. your foreheads don't separate for a moment, except for when you kiss.

"i'm...fuck—" he can barely get his words out, his muscles a wobbly jello beneath his skin. "close, baby. i'm so close."

it's a warning, but you don't get off of him. you just ride him faster and his groans lace into whines, a trembling hand weakly tapping your thigh.

"fuck, baby i said—"

your walls tightly squeeze around him and you do nothing but stare at him. "i heard you."

he swears he felt his soul exit and reenter his body in those few moments.

his head tosses back against the headrest, struggling to keep his desperate moans contained as he releases inside you, warmth flooding your insides.

when he comes down from his (orgasmic) high, you still don't get off, feeling him slowly grow soft inside of you. your head weakly falls onto his shoulder.

"...i'm tired," he comments.

"i'm hungry," you emphasize, twisting a loc between your fingers. he chuckles; you just ate. you're not joking.

after a moment of silence, which you presume is from him thinking, you hear him speak up. "you ARE on birth control, right?"

"...no," you admit.

he sucks air through his teeth. "damn."

"bad damn or 'oh well' damn?"

"'oh well' damn.'"

a beat. "...random, but you know when i first met you, i thought you were a stud lesbian?"

"yeah get off me."

2. Set Up an Aesthetic Study Space 📚

Organize your study materials 📅: Keep your notebooks, pens, and tech essentials neat and visually appealing. Consider using elegant stationery, a classic leather planner, and high-quality notebooks that make note-taking feel more intentional.

Create a serene ambiance 🕯️: A softly scented candle or diffuser with lavender or vanilla will enhance the calm atmosphere. Use soft lighting—perhaps a vintage-style desk lamp or string lights—to keep the space warm and inviting.

ೀ 🍨 ‧ ˚ 🎀 ⊹˚. ♡

3. Study with Focus 📖

Adopt a structured study routine 🕰️: Use time-blocking techniques like the Pomodoro method (25 minutes of focused study followed by a 5-minute break). This ensures productivity while still giving you time to recharge.

Take thoughtful notes ✨: When studying, aim for neat, organized notes. Consider using a subtle color palette of soft pastels for headings or highlighting key points. A journal for reflections or mind-mapping ideas can help reinforce your learning while maintaining elegance.

Incorporate calming rituals 🌱: During breaks, make a ritual out of brewing a cup of tea, stepping outside for a breath of fresh air, or reading a few pages of a book you find inspiring. These little moments help reset your mind and keep you grounded.

ೀ 🍨 ‧ ˚ 🎀 ⊹˚. ♡

4. Stay elegant during Everyday Activities 💅

Dress for the day with intention 🌷: Choose outfits that are both functional and refined. Think crisp button-up shirts, tailored blazers, or simple dresses that flatter your figure. A pop of soft color like blush pink or lavender adds just the right touch of elegance.

Scent & ambiance 🌸: Incorporate a signature fragrance—something subtle and sophisticated like rose, bergamot, or lavender. Use it to create a sensory memory that associates your workspace and study routine with calm, focus, and femininity.

Mindful moments 💭: Throughout your day, practice mindfulness in small actions. Whether it’s savoring your morning coffee or taking a moment to appreciate the quiet of your study space, embracing these mindful pauses adds depth and grace to your routine.

ೀ 🍨 ‧ ˚ 🎀 ⊹˚. ♡

5. Nourish Your Mind & Body 💖

Hydrate & eat with care 🍓: Drink plenty of water and enjoy healthy snacks like fresh fruit, nuts, or a light salad. The focus is on simplicity and nourishment—nothing too heavy or overly complicated.

Prioritize rest 💤: A good night’s sleep is essential. Aim for 7-8 hours of rest to ensure you wake up refreshed and ready to tackle your studies with renewed focus.

ೀ 🍨 ‧ ˚ 🎀 ⊹˚. ♡

6. Stay Curious🧠

Engage in intellectual exploration 📚: Read regularly, not only academic texts but also literature that inspires you. Whether it’s contemporary fiction, a classic novel, or insightful non-fiction, allow yourself to explore topics that fuel your curiosity.

Develop hobbies that complement your studies 🎨: If you're studying IT or technology, cultivate interests in related fields such as graphic design, coding, or digital art. These creative pursuits can complement your academic life and add a layer of intellectual sophistication.

Reflect & evolve 💬: Regularly take time to reflect on what you’ve learned, both academically and personally. Journaling or discussing your studies with a friend or mentor can deepen your understanding and help you stay motivated.

ೀ 🍨 ‧ ˚ 🎀 ⊹˚. ♡

7. Embrace a Balanced Social Life 🌸

Engage with like-minded people 💌: Surround yourself with individuals who share your intellectual interests. Cultivate friendships that are both supportive and stimulating.

Find joy in leisure ☕: Take time for relaxing activities—whether it’s enjoying a quiet afternoon in a café, reading in the park, or having a thoughtful conversation with friends. Balance work and play to keep your spirit light.

ೀ 🍨 ‧ ˚ 🎀 ⊹˚. ♡

8. Curate a Signature Aesthetic 💖

Style with elegance 💅: Opt for soft, muted colors in your wardrobe—think pale pinks, whites, and creams. Simple, well-tailored pieces that feel timeless and feminine will give you a polished, coquette look without being overly cutesy.

Subtle accessories ✨: A delicate necklace, a chic watch, or a pair of understated stud earrings can enhance your elegance without overwhelming your outfit.

Hair & makeup 🌿: Keep your makeup minimal and fresh. Soft blush, natural eyeshadow, and a subtle pink lip will accentuate your features. Hair can be styled in a clean, soft way—think loose waves, a neat bun, or a low ponytail with a cute hairpin.

ೀ 🍨 ‧ ˚ 🎀 ⊹˚. ♡

9. Reflect & Cultivate Confidence 💖

Journaling & self-reflection 📓: Take time to write down your thoughts, ideas, and goals. Reflecting on your progress and dreams helps you stay grounded and focused while nurturing your creative side.

Embrace the art of balance ⚖️: Know when to push yourself and when to step back. The key to staying grounded in both your studies and personal life is understanding the importance of rest and rejuvenation.

✩ ♬ ₊.🎧⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧. 🌷 ✩ ♬ ₊.🎧⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

The Tradwife Aesthetic: A Look at its Allure and Contradictions 🌾💍✨

The tradwife aesthetic has captivated a corner of the internet, blending vintage femininity, homemaking nostalgia, and romanticized traditional gender roles. Think flowy dresses, immaculate pies cooling on windowsills, and Instagram feeds bathed in warm, golden light. But beneath the surface, the tradwife trend is far more layered than a simple throwback to mid-century domestic bliss.

🌿 Aesthetic Breakdown

At its core, the tradwife aesthetic borrows heavily from the past. Its visual language is rooted in:

1950s nostalgia: High-waisted skirts, aprons, vintage kitchenware, and meticulously styled hair.

Cottagecore overlap: Rustic homes, gardening, homemade bread, and flower arranging.

Clean girl simplicity: Natural makeup and muted tones, emphasizing an "effortlessly" polished look.

The tradwife aesthetic thrives on creating an idealized, picture-perfect version of domestic life. It's about showcasing the beauty of traditional homemaking in a way that feels aspirational and curated.

💬 Subcultural Foundations

The tradwife movement grew from online spaces like Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, where creators blend lifestyle content with discussions about returning to traditional family values. Its followers often idealize the past as a time of stability and moral clarity, though critics argue this view ignores historical inequalities.

While some embrace it for its aesthetic appeal alone, others tie it to a lifestyle that endorses traditional gender roles—women as homemakers, men as breadwinners. The hashtag #Tradwife has sparked discussions about autonomy, feminism, and societal expectations.

✨ Why Does It Appeal?

Nostalgia as comfort: In uncertain times, looking back feels safe.

Aesthetics of control: Clean, organized homes and traditional roles provide a sense of order.

Escapism: The tradwife image promises a slower, simpler life—far removed from modern chaos.

⚖️ The Controversy

The tradwife movement isn’t without its critics. Detractors point out that it often romanticizes a past rife with oppression, erasing the struggles many faced during those "simpler times." Feminist thinkers question whether embracing this lifestyle is truly empowering or simply a rebranding of patriarchal ideals.

🌺 Final Thoughts

Whether you see the tradwife aesthetic as harmless vintage nostalgia or a regressive movement, its rise reflects a longing for connection, simplicity, and stability. It’s an aesthetic worth unpacking—not just for its curated beauty but for what it says about our collective yearning for the past.

Today’s Cozy & Relaxed Journaling Space ✨🧡🌿🌲

Today the vibe is gratitude. I try to show gratitude for all that I’ve been learning about myself and this world every week, but especially on weekends. I’ve got some Skyrim autumn ambience in the background. I’m blessed to have a functioning computer and iPad. I’m drinking clean water and just basking in the simplicity and beauty of an early morning before the sun rises. Today I’ll write some sort of entry into my journal and work on my book of shadows. Maybe even play some fire emblem awakening!

🌾✨ Sabrina considers the simplicity and purposefulness of a blade of grass during a chaotic world of stockbrokers and individuals obsessed with making money and doing deals. The blade of grass inspires Sabrina and recognizes its capacity to grow without external forces. She expresses dissatisfaction with the absence of actual engagement, emphasizing her need for simple human connection and the motivating value of authentic communication.

🍃🌟 Sabrina takes peace in viewing the natural world, represented by the blade of grass. Unlike people, a blade of grass develops without aiming for external goals such as money or social media popularity. This insight causes Sabrina to reflect on the meaning of life and the significance of accepting the simplicity of being rather than continuously looking for external approval or achievement, drawing inspiration from nature's simple progress.

🌱🌈 Sabrina finds herself motivated to be reminded of her connection to nature and realize that simply existing and being present is enough. She is inspired by the concept that her primary purpose is to experience the present moment entirely and appreciate life's beauty rather than obtain outward success indicators. This attitude gives Sabrina a feeling of independence from society's demands and expectations, allowing her to find pleasure in simply being herself and motivating fulfillment in embracing her authenticity.

🌿🌻 Finally, Sabrina's perspective serves as a reminder to make time for silence and connection with nature amid modern chaos. Recognizing the intrinsic importance of being present and embracing the simplicity of living, she finds inspiration in the steady development of the blade of grass and a restored feeling of calm and satisfaction. This motivates her to stay connected to nature and live a more genuine and fulfilled life.
