Candlelit Raziel

Since everyone is obsessed with another vampire right now, I though I'd share my favorite vampire who I've spent sooo many years obsessing over, prefallen Raziel. This is an old render I did using LuxRender for DAZ Studio.

Scene setup in DAZ Studio 3 Advanced. Rendered with Lux Render. Postwork in Photoshop Elements 8.0.

HELPMMEMEEEE yeah no they were getting FREAKY before i got there. in my defense i gave them a LOT of time to do so (i was agonizing over red or white lingerie. had to see what kind of stains i'd have to be hiding that night) and i had an inkling the SECOND i sat my ass down

no bc okay. when archie was down there, i couldn't do shit to keep him on my cunt bc saro's arms were trapping mine . right?? and even when they weren't, he had my ass in a chokehold so i was like . Way more focused on that bc that shit was HOT

and so now that saro's down there and is SO cautiously nosing at my cunt, i get (surprise) impatient and i reach down and YANK his hair. grinding into his face like NO tomorrow. AND THE WAY HE LET OUT A SOB?? AND DID A FUCKING NOSEDIVE INTO IT???? every time i remember the feeling i lose all the nerves in my legs

and archie's moving me to lay back, sits on my waist and leans in juuuust a little. then he stops right before he's about to kiss me and murmurs, "is this alright?"

SIR. YOU JUST HAD YOUR TONGUE IN MY PUSSY. I THINK IT'S A LITTLE MORE THAN OKAY. but unfortunately words were failing me so all i could do was nod and make out with him

YES!!!! AN EATER!!!! AN ENTHUSIASTIC MUNCHER!!!!! A PATHETIC. MUNCHER!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!😭😭😭😭

also agonizing between red or white is so real.

ALSO YESSS OMG HOW THE HELL IS HE GONNA ASK THAT LIKE HE WASNT JUST MAKING OUT WITH YOUR LIL XIMI ??1!*!(!)(!? COME HERR ALREADY!!!!!

Part of my new years resolution is to work on music more so I've been working on Cedar's Descent again. Sorry to the Oliver fans but I'm switching the vocalist to SAROS so that I don't have a heart attack trying to mix the vocals

[pwhl-mybeloved]

Hello. I'm a hockey fan and also an woman (probably). I love talking about hockey with other hockey people. Specifically, I like talking about the play on the ice and the way particular players and teams go about the business of doing the hockey. However, I've only just recently gotten into women's hockey (thanks YTG) and I don't know enough about the players and the teams to actually talk about the PWHL like that and I want to know.

I know that Kendall Coyne is fast, I know that Kristin O'Neill is a tenacious forechecker, I know that Aerin Frankel is Jusse Saros but...more, and I know that Marie-Philip Poulin is clutch. Beyond that, I don't know anything and I would like to know things.

Can you help me out? What kinds of things should I look for when next I watch a PWHL game? What kind of styles do each of the teams play? How is MPP so clutch when half the time it looks like she skates by falling over?

thanks for this question I’m gonna tag @strawberryblondebutch because my answer is going to be a bit lacking I fear

I spend the hockey games screaming and gasping and pointing at my faves, but I don’t often pay particular attention to the style of play for each player, which is what I think you’re asking about here. I also spend a lot of time watching the goalies over the skaters. Or I just watch the puck because that’s where the action is.

One thing I do like to watch is the special teams, during power plays and penalty kills, watching them set up the diamond in the offensive zone during a pp is sooooo satisfying 👌🏻

MPP is a mystery to me tbh. She has these moments of pure brilliance, and other times she’s kinda all over the place.

Some of my thoughts about players:

Emma Maltais is a ‘shit disturber’ she likes to get in the way & instigates ice crimes

Ann Renee Desbiens likes to go on Adventures more than most goalies, she’s always up to something

Sarah Nurse is great on the breakaway, I’ve loved seeing her succeed in that recently

To my followers, please add your commentary!

PS: so glad you’re here & enjoying the pwhl!!!

2024 Libra New Moon/Eclipse

Wednesday, October 2, 06:49 UT, 10°04’ Libra

Chart erected for Washington, DC

Ordinarily I would rattle off the key phrase for a New Moon - but this one happens to be a solar eclipse, and it’s better not to mess with it. I’m including a lot of information from various sources, to help you make sense of it.

This series of eclipses (Saros Series 8 South) isn’t “fun” - in The Eagle and the Lark, astrologer Bernadette Brady wrote:

Separation and loss. To be parted. To finish something, and to feel sad at its completion. Physical injury is also possible through over-straining one’s strength. This is not the time to undertake strenuous physical activities.

Previous occurrences of this series happened on September 22, 2006, at 29° Virgo; September 11, 1988, at 19° Virgo; and August 31, 1970, at 8° Virgo.

This is also a South Node solar eclipse. The South Node indicates behaviors we have “maxed out” - we have learned everything there is to learn, and we have done everything there is to do; we can no longer make any progress or achieve any growth here. It’s time to reach out to that North Node, using its ruler (Mars/Cancer) for specifics.

Looking at the actual chart: there’s the eclipse, very closely conjunct not only Mercury but both Black Moons Lilith. This is a particular mentality of deliberately not seeing ourselves and others as we really are - of sugar-coating (Libra) reality.

In Finding Our Way through the Dark, Demetra George wrote of Black Moon Lilith:

She forces us to look at ourselves with utter, naked honesty and makes us demand the truth of things, from our families, partners, groups and governments. She is ruthless in destroying any of our life structures or relationships that are built upon a foundation of deception and disrespect, or do not express our true individuality or appropriate life path.

Note also that the eclipse is square both ends of an opposition between Mars/Cancer and Ceres/Capricorn. Nothing like a family member to cut through our crap, is there? But (on the other hand) there’s also familial pressure to “be” a certain way - to assume a particular role in the tribe - whether or not we’re actually suited to that role.

If we throw in the North Node/Aries, we have a Cardinal sign grand cross. Difficult aspects in Cardinal signs are indicative of issues and problems we have been aware of for some little time, but haven’t done anything to address. Steven Forrest wrote,

When the Grand Cross falls in the Cardinal Mode, its main strength lies in boldly initiating action and in attracting support, while the main forms of self-sabotage lie either in starting things that should never been started in the first place, or in failing to follow through on one’s inspired beginnings - the failure to finish what was started…. In the dark expression of Cardinal Grand Cross energy, this sickness manifests as endlessly beginning new projects in a spirit of hope that a new day is dawning, only to lose interest and focus for no obvious reason. (The Book of Air, pp 290-291)

So: let’s look at some of the more negative Libra traits:

Going along to get along

Manipulating people and situations to get one’s own way

“Peace at any price” (see: Neville Chamberlain)

Refusing to take a stand or to commit

Too “refined” and “aesthetic;” superficial

Opting for style over substance

I dunno - it just seems to me that if something must come to an end, maybe it should be something negative? Or maybe some behavior that worked like a charm back in 7th grade, but is no longer valid years later? If all we get out of this is learning how to pray for grace, that would be a good thing.
