Her obsidian gaze squinted, enjoying the liveliness of the people as the yearly festival settled in for the week. As per tradition the witch had brought out her stand on wheels, one used solely for six days of fortune telling only to be converted on the last day into a lucky stand. A kissing booth, as it were. The final days of a festival were always the most potent with potential, ripe for her to bless mortals with her favor or curse them for the year. Though the tales of the morbid witch have gone quiet as the eras passed, Mortem still found herself amused by the mortals that dared approach the colorful and yet ominous booth. Fortunes? It said and beneath it sat the witch, an easy going smile as her fingers traced the wood. Try your luck! The sign below her encouraged. Luck? At what? Mortals come and go. Some receive good fortune, a blessing in some manner. Others are politely rejected, disappointed by their potential - a curse in hopes they'd be better next year. The rare few she stares at with a sharpened gaze that almost is something akin to disgust. They flee her when her hand twitches, as if to grab for something that isn’t there. How does one win a game of fortune when it has no rules? Mortem’s attention shifted then, settling upon them. A look of knowing that comes and goes as her gaze is dragged elsewhere - scouting for potentials to beckon with a single glance. A vague but knowing smile curved its way upon her ashen lips, as if the outcome was one she has seen already.
Information to take part is below the cut.
I haven't done this in a while but here we are. If any of this isn't clear to you, just inquire. This is set up so that if you have any muse(s) interested in having their fortune read, they need only approach her stand. Consider it an open starter. To take part you can either: Send an ask with your muse approaching and stating the kind of fortune they wish to have read or if you'd prefer it in the style of a thread, tag me in a separate post. And people who prefer to do it on Discord can just shoot me a DM or tag me in our server. :)
Mortem will give a reading based on what you're inquiring about (subject-wise). The past, present, future. Something specific, something generalized? You can ask for a tarot, palm or crystal ball reading. If you want to provide your own cards for the tarot reading, you can. I'll have Mortem pull by default.
So be sure to arrived with a question! And if you want something more specific, just ask me. ^^
A heads up: There is a chance for Mortem to physically touch your muse(s), lightly kiss their face or hand depending if she believes they deserve a strong blessing of good fortune. There is also the high chance she'll bless or curse someone once it is over. Obviously you don't have to do anything with it, but this is her area of expertise so if you come for a fortune reading please note it will happen and there's no slipping out of it/dodging her blessings or curses. To receive absolutely nothing means she might show up later with a knife. :)
Good luck!

Note : Their perception and your real self are 2 different things so take whate resonates and leave what doesn't , take it as a fun reading.
Students:
Nervous and a little on edge , you give off the impression of someone of a hardworker, someone's who's very attentive and great to work with , most of your classmates feel relieved when you are in their team in group projects , they think you have good ideas and a " unique perspective" you always seem to think outside the box , they think you have your style instead of saying things out and loud to appear more confident you seem to speak softly and explain things from your own interpretation, they think you are here to get work done rather to mess around, yes you will be playful with others but you're also very contemplative during class , its like everyone expects you to not pay attention it looks like you are in your head and you're not focused but when the time comes,suppose there's a surprise test you'll actually perform better than everyone else in teams of understanding the concept, your classmates has an assumption that you like to create your space and its always on the quieter side maybe you put in headphones or before writing or learning something you prefer to organise your table or get comfortable before the lecture starts . They think you'll be successful in life , but you might need to do things in a more textbook way rather than making your own interpretations of things and that way you will perform better . I think this perception has changed because of your professor's, maybe they told you to be more specific in your answer or state points in a systematic manner , to use this method and don't do this sum from this methid and blah blah , so you may feel a little stuck and maybe you have to put in more effort even though what you are doing is not wrong its actually creative, but your subjects might need a lot of mechanical interpretation .....yeah i feel so bad , you guys have really interesting perceptions, if you have seen the movie 3 idiots the guy rancho ig was his name , there was one scene where he was arguing with his professor about mechanical learning and ACTUAL learning. You look laid back and chilled out to most of them, you only speak when spoken too vibes but you know too much and keep quite. They think you are a perfectionist and teachers fav .
Your teachers:
They think you are a kind , compassionate person , they think you are introverted or you have a small circle of friends, they think you should take a stand for yourself, maybe they ask you questions and you just go with whatever they are saying instead of explaining it so they feel a little confused as to why you took that action or why you said that , they think you area little slow in your learning and that you actually think from a bigger picture instead of analysing small things for eg : they tell you to assume there's a person , you'll be assuming their height , their gender and what not ,to , make a mental map so you think a little ahead . They think you look intensely at them , maybe when they are explaining something you will look like you are 100% focused but then you might not actively participate in the discussion they want you to do that more , they think you should kind of relax and not be "THAT" attentive . They sometimes see that you may need to ask something but then they know you wouldn't come and ask them , they might think you are shy and nerdy ,yeah they think you are soft spoken and loves to avoid them lol . They think you have an attractive voice .
You may have these placements or you give off the energy of it :
mars 2h , venus-sun square, aquarius moon/rising, cancer6h , Neptune 8h , uranus square mercury, sun tribe nars , mars4h , medusa3h , aries venus , scorpio moon , gemini 8h/4 , L, loose shirt , heart locket , blue keychain , tomboy , late , wavy hair , Jamie, pet snake , crime books , mean girls , ice cream,baseball , anime ,stickers , skyhigh? glasses , cute smile ,fit , hairband , black bag, crocs .
Your energy felt so nostalgic and great to channel , its watching your favourite show on a Saturday night !!! Keep it up guys .
Thank you for reading!!

a writing challenge? in 2024? you bet
Hi! Hello! Hey!
I've been going through A Time and have chosen to cope by going back to the specific vibes of 2016 to 2018. That happens to include an incredible resurgence in my love for MCU fanfic, the community around it and all the love that goes into them. I've felt a bit distant from here for a while, but I still see so many of my old friends writing, ones who want to get back into it, and a whole lot of new writers I am dying to meet.
I've floated this idea vaguely on my blog and people seem to be interested so I figured it was worth a shot!
So yeah, welcome to Ari's Old School, Nostalgia Jam, Why-The-Hell-Not MCU Fic Writing Challenge 2024!
Prompts, rules and whatnot under the cut:
Requests:
If you could reblog this post to reach someone who might want to participate, I'd really appreciate it! No need to be following me, it's open for anyone.
Reader-inserts, OCs, solo character fics, character x character-- absolutely no limitations
Any and all MCU characters are allowed
Anything above 500 words should have a read-more/keep-reading tab. Series, multi-chapters, one-shots, drabbles, etc etc. The sky's the limit.
Please tag me in your fics (@shurisneakers) so I'm notified of them, and post them with the tag #arisoldschoolwritingchallenge . It may take me a while to get back to you due to the circumstances I find myself in currently, but I absolutely will. Please send me a DM if I haven't responded within 10 days.
Send me an ask with the prompt you would like. Feel free to pick up to 2 prompts
The only thing I request of you: no RPF and no dark fics. Smut is welcome, but non-con/dub-con/incest or anything along those veins is something I'd ask you not to submit for this challenge. Thank you for your understanding!
I know I've called it an MCU fic challenge as it's the community I've grown with, but if you feel like any of these prompts resonates with a character from another fandom, please go ahead and write it. This challenge really is just about the fun of writing fanfic and love for Your Little Guys

[Tag Game] Writing Patterns
I was tagged by @marypsue! Thank you, friend.
Rules: List the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern.
Here are mine!
1 - "It was a fateful flash of gold that drew Caspar’s eye to the altar of the church, unmistakably bright even among the sacramental trappings that surrounded it." (Epiphany, Pentiment)
2 - “'Woah, be careful, Magdalene,' said Caspar, watching the toddler nearly trip as she trundled her way over to him." (Bei Wind und Wetter, Pentiment) (This is technically not the first line of the fic, but the actual first line is just a bit of dialogue from the game, so I went with one I actually wrote)
3 - "The second-story bedroom in the Maler home had once housed all three of the family’s sons, from the time Andreas could first walk up the stairs to join his brothers to the day Gabriel had departed for his Wanderjahre, the first to leave home for good." (The Other Side of a Story, Pentiment)
4 - “'Magdalene! How pleasant to see you. Do you suppose that metals have spirits?'” (De Proprietatibus Plumbi, or On the Properties of Lead, Pentiment)
5 - "The little room that read 207 – Herzl Breslaur Jewish Historical Collection on the door was tucked away in a quiet corner of the much larger and ever-so-slightly less quiet Edith & Walter Benson Special Collections Library, which was not to say it was forgotten about, only that it tended to receive visitors with a very specific purpose." (Zichronam Livracha, When the Angels Left the Old Country)
6 - “'Where are they? Honestly if Clara doesn’t come, when she knows perfectly well why I wanted to get everyone together today….'” (February, 1518, Pentiment)
7 - "Shivering as a gust of wind blew snowflakes into her face, Clara clutched the tureen she was carrying closer to her chest." (Beharren ist eine Kunst, Pentiment)
8 - “'Honestly, Andreas the balcony, again? We have a door, you know!'” (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres, Pentiment)
9 - Heart thudding in his chest, Caspar stumbled slightly as his foot hit a rocky patch on the road leading back into town. (Stemma Codicum, Pentiment)
10 - “'How long do you think they’ll be gone?'” (Long Upon the Land, Pentiment)
Honestly this is an entertaining look at how much Pentiment fic I wrote in the last year and a half or so more than anything else, haha. Though at least there's a fun spread of different characters represented (It looks like Caspar shows up the most, which tracks)
I'm a little surprised there aren't more in-media-res dialogue openings; I feel like I used to lean more heavily on those, and in years since have diversified a bit, which is interesting to see.
I'll go ahead and tag @shadowen @animatedamerican @eighthdoctor @philcoulsonismyhero and anyone else who wants to participate, though this is of course optional!
#i think i might still have the most fics written out of any author in the pentiment tag on ao3#which speaks in part to how small the tag is. but also. listen#i was a man possessed for a while there. it happens#my writing

rules: share the albums that you can listen to nonstop. those lightning in a bottle-albums that scratch ur brain just right. every single track, an absolute banger. u could not skip one if u tried. no notes. stunning, show-stopping, immaculate. ur no-skip albums.
🔎 bonus & optional (but imo, v fun) rules: 1) add a track rec for us to listen to! AND 2) share ur favorite line(s) from that track! 👀
Now lowkey I'm cheating here because I don't really listen to albums in full and I would probably would skip at max like one song on each of these albums but I wanna participate in the game so I make the rules.
ANYWAYS thank you @bluecoolr for the tag
I will Tag @probably-a-plant-thing @bobeatspie300 @thelemoncoffee @boxtyphoon @toborusk and a cover all if you wanna do it do it!! Also these are all very low no pressure tags.
Billie Ellish- When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We All Do?
Penelope Scott-Public Void
Mother Mother-Inside
Chonny Jash-The Will Wood Power Hour
Eliza Anastasic-The Grand Relics
Billie was my number one artist on Spotify for like 2 or 3 years in a row and she hasn't left my top 5 since I started listening to her. I fucking LOVE ilomilo
Lyrics: So, where did you go? I should know, but it's cold And I don't wanna be lonely So tell me you'll come home Even if it's just a lie
The fact I get all my music from Tiktok is showing ANYWAYS Penelope Scott has some bangin ass music. I actually associate this song with Steven, and if Bob is down and people are interested I can totally go into why.
Lyrics:You fuckers know it's all built on lies But the beast refuses to die And so I guess well neither can I
Mother Mother is the most basic gay people music but DO I CARE??? NOOOOO!!!!! I can and will add both Haylofts into Oc Playlists! Anyways this bitch got a funky rhythm and I like the way they sing. Also this is probably the album with the most skips but I make the rules I don't care I'mma put it anyways
Lyrics: I'm thinking, "Oh, my God, what a chatty creature" It just kept talking and talking and talking all around in a circle I said, "Hey, little guy, I think it's time to go now"
CHONNY I AM GONNA KISS YOU SO HARD OH MY GOD. YOU, ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARTISTS, COVERING WILL WOOD??? MY OTHER TOP ARTIST. I AM CRAZY AND DERANGED
Now I do think you should listen to both versions of Thermodynamic Lawyer but I really like the lyric changes Chonny does so do whatever you want.
Lyrics:He'll rationalize rhymes 'til the T's and the I's Are re-crossed and re-dotted to a blur Blacks out his eyes, hides the lines, flays his thighs 'Til the-, they think that "he" is their "her"
Ok ok now hear me out. Hear me out here I know it's fucking weird but listen to me. Hear me the fuck out.
This is a fan-Album based on the Podcast The Adventure Zone Balance. Everyone should listen to Balance. It's a funny DND podcast. It is earnest, and stupid and funny and it has made me cry and if you don't have 69 hours to throw to this podcast (with the first 6 episodes being a bit rough as it's their first time playing) I HIGHLY recommend listening to their Current Arc: Vs Dracula. They all know what they're doing and they're doing it hilariously
Rant over. These songs are based on 7 magical objects that are collected by our main characters. These songs also include some clips from the podcast. I'm gonna rec the first one because its the least spoiler-y.
Lyrics: I'm a weapon of mass destruction That can literally fit on your hand So what are you waiting for? I'm thralling as hard as I can Go ahead and put me on- Gloves do not have long attention spans!

Event | Ayakashi Summer Festival | Chapter 3
Misumi: Hmmm, what would be good~? It’s gotta be something that both Madoka and the other people attending will enjoy…
Misumi: (Well, Madoka is a scriptwriter, so…)
Misumi: (I know! Since there’s a stage at the summer festival site, maybe a scriptwriting award or something would be something he’d like!?)
Azuma: Oh, what are you doing out here?
Misumi: Ah, Azuma! Are you gonna drink here?
Azuma: I thought I’d have a drink out here for a change… I’m not interrupting anything, am I?
Misumi: Nope, you can go ahead~!
Azuma: Thank you.
Azuma: Something on your mind, Misumi?
Misumi: Madoka is gonna come to the festival, and I want him to have fun~.
Misumi: So I was trying to think of good ideas to bring up at tomorrow’s meeting!
Azuma: I see, that’s so kind of you, Misumi.
Azuma: Have you thought of anything good?
Misumi: Mhm, so remember how we had a theater contest before…
Misumi: I was thinking of having a theater contest with an award for scriptwriting or something!
Azuma: An award for scriptwriting… Sounds interesting.
Azuma: If I remember correctly, the theater contest at Veludo Summer Festival from before had etudes…
Azuma: So how about making it a short scripted contest this time instead?
Misumi: Oh, yeah!
Misumi: Let’s bring that up at tomorrow’s meeting! Thanks for the advice, Azuma!
Azuma: You’re welcome.
· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·
Izumi: (Since it’s the first meeting, all the members from our troupe who are participating came…)
Hisoka: …There’s more people here than I thought there would be.
Guy: It must be people involved with the summer festival just like we are.
Masumi: And it’s gonna be a joint effort between the shopping district and Veludo Way too.
Omi: There are quite a few people I’ve seen in the shopping district before here. Just over there is the owner of the fruit and vegetable store and the bakery clerk.
Izumi: It is! There’s some of the shoppers who have taken our flyers too.
Guy: Hmm, and the lady from the shoe store is over there.
Hisoka: …There’s some of the regulars from the bar too.
Shift: Ah, MANKAI Company. ‘Sup, guys!
Misumi: Ah, Shift, Haruto!
Azuma: Hello, you two.
Haruto: Hi. The meeting is about to start, so we’d better get to our seats.
Masumi: I’m sitting next to Director. None of you get to.
Haruto: Yeah, yeah, whatever.
Shopping District Chairman: Everyone, thank you all for coming here today. Let’s get the joint summer festival meeting started.
Summer Festival Organizer: First, let’s start with the planning. If anyone has any suggestions, please raise your hand.
Haruto: Yes, I have one.
Summer Festival Organizer: Yes, go ahead.
Haruto: I’m Haruto Asuka from GOD-za. This time we’ll be having MANKAI Company joining us…
Haruto: So how about holding a theater contest with the theme of ayakashi, led by both theater companies?
Misumi: Ah…!
Azuma: Seems like Haruto also thought of doing a theater contest.
Misumi: Yeah. I was gonna make that suggestion, but what Haruto said might be better!
Participant A: Led by both theater companies, huh?
Participant B: It would certainly draw in more excitement.
Summer Festival Organizer: We think it’s a good idea, but what does MANKAI Company think?
Izumi: I’m in agreement. I’m all for it!
Summer Festival Organizer: Thank you so much. Well then, a theater contest between the two troupes has been decided on.
Misumi: I have something!
Summer Festival Organizer: Oh? Yes, you, over there.
Misumi: For the theater contest, I was thinking maybe we could do plays with short scripts and then have a scriptwriting award or something!
Izumi: (That must’ve been what Misumi-kun was thinking of proposing today.)
Participant C: I see, an award like that could work.
Participant D: We’ve never done anything like that before. Sounds interesting!
Shift: I think it’d be super cool to put the spotlight on those working behind the scenes. I’m def in agreement!
Guy: Yes, I as well.
Shopping District Chairman: Seems like everyone is in agreement.
Summer Festival Organizer: It does. We’ll make sure to work that in. Thank you for the lovely suggestions, everyone!
Misumi: Waah, yay~! Thank you so much!
Azuma: I’m glad it all worked out, Misumi.
Misumi: Ehehe, it’s thanks to you, Azuma!

NaNo Project Update #5: Week 4/Finale
"Somewhere Only We Know" Chapters 11-16
Chapter 11/16: Hikari and Takeru, mostly Hikari POV - 100% COMPLETE!
Chapter 12/16: Daisuke and Ken, both POV - 100% COMPLETE!
Chapter 13/16: Miyako and Koushiro, mostly Miyako POV - 100% COMPLETE!
Chapter 14/16: Ensemble adv cast, mostly Taichi POV - 0%
Chapter 15/16: Sora and Joe, mostly Sora POV - 0%
Chapter 16/16: Ensemble 02 cast, Mimi & Joe - multiple POV - 0%
I set out at the beginning of NaNo to write only SOWK, hoping to finish the story. Obviously it didn't quite work out that way, but I'm happy with getting 3 out of 6 chapters accomplished. I will make a more comprehensive project update soon, but in essence, I'm taking a break from writing this story until the spring. I WILL be posting the 3 finished chapters much sooner though.
_____________
"The Universal Language of Friendship" Chapters 1-6
ON HOLD - about 35% done
Still on hold. Still not feeling it. But I do have plans to return. Thank you to everyone supporting me.
_____________
"(Don't) stop flirting" - Daiken oneshot (rated M)
100% COMPLETE!
I'm really proud of how this one turned out, even though it was relatively short.
_____________
"Bar-Crossed Lovers" - Daiyako multi-chaptered (rated M)
100% COMPLETE!
I got this one up past 11k, which helped my NaNo numbers a lot. I adore Daiyako/Daimiya and I want to explore this ship more in the future. At first, with this fic, I was worried everything was too way silly. But then I realized I didn't have to make it serious if I didn't feel like it. So this is the most unabashedly romcom-y story I think I've ever written. And I've written a lot of romcom.
_____________
"Backstreet's Back" (working title) - Daikenkeru oneshot (rated explicit)
????%
I've had bits and pieces of this Daikenkeru threesome fic written for a few years now. Most of my writing for it took place after I reached 50k, but I'm still counting this as a project I worked on during NaNo. The fic is chaotic and sexy and weird. And if you know the real reason why the working title is "Backstreet's Back", I love you.
I want to take my time during December on this one, since I'm technically supposed to be taking a writing break. I'm sure there are people out there interested in reading this type of fic, so I've been wanting to actually finish it for a long time.
_____________
I accomplished 50k and beyond! All in all, my first NaNo was pretty fun. Everyone in the Camp Digimonth server was wonderfully kind and supportive, as well as my followers and mutuals here on tumblr. I'm really glad I took a chance with NaNo. I have to admit that I did get stressed out a few times trying to stay ahead of the game with my wordcount, causing me to panic about how I wanted to move forward with the month. But talking it out with encouraging friends was a blessing.
Work projects, my cousin's wedding, the 02 film, a bad headcold, Jou Weekend, and Thanksgiving all threw hurdles at me, both good and stressful. But I prevailed and I'm proud of myself. I still can't believe I decided to work on 5 projects over NaNo instead of one, but I think in doing that, it helped keep the momentum going. Whenever I got stuck on something with SOWK, I was able to pick up a different project and work from there. And all of those separate projects were something exciting to work on.
Anyway, I hope everyone who participated in NaNo 2023 had a good one, no matter where you ended up progress-wise with your projects. And a BIG thank you to everyone who was supportive of the people doing NaNo this month!

With the promise of war on the horizon, all students and faculty of the Officers Academy should be in tip-top fighting shape. The illusory arena gifted by the Elementals from Morfis will be indispensable in training the monastery for a difficult battle ahead.
Welcome to another Arena! This will be a mini-event beginning November 17th that will allow members of the Officers Academy to test weapons and combat builds for their characters without the constraint of current masteries and skill ranks. As always, one of our goals with this event is to check that weapons and abilities work as designed, and to catch anything that might need further refinement before our next big event in January. It’s unlikely that we’ll catch everything that should be fixed, but there’s nothing wrong with a test run! As a thank you for helping us, there is one skill point waiting for anyone who participates, as long as your muse isn’t disqualified for inactivity!
How this event will work:
Sign up your muse here. For this Arena, you will only be signing up your muse's name. After signups close on the 16th, all participants will be sorted into teams and given a random Master ranked class. The Master ranked class, and the weapon ranks required to access it, will restrict each muse to what they can and cannot access throughout the event.
Once teams and Master classes have been assigned, you will have 24 hours to lock in your inventory before the event begins in full.
Inventories will be constrained by class tier, regardless of current Arena round. Beginner = 2 slots Intermediate = 3 slots Advanced = 4 slots Master = 5 slots
However, each round will have a rank cap. You will only be able to take equipment at or below the rank designated for the round. Bronze = C rank or lower Silver = B+ rank or lower Gold = S+ rank or lower (special rules explained later) For example, if your muse receives Gremory as their Master class, they will only be able to select Reason and Faith equipment and classes up to C rank during Bronze Round.
Combat arts do not take up an inventory slot and can be equipped permanently to ONE weapon per inventory selection. If you decide to have your muse bring an Iron Sword, they can also equip the combat art Wrath Strike, but if they also choose to bring a Steel Sword for their second inventory slot, Wrath Strike will only be allowed to be used with the Iron Sword until inventories are re-selected for the next round.
All participating muses will be randomized into teams of 4 or 5. Your teams will not be competing against each other at any point.
All dice rolls must be made in the TOA server using Dice Maiden. Each team will have their own thread to make dice rolls in and to message each other about arena threads or anything else pertaining to their specific team. This event is one where you will need to be in the server for rolling and communication purposes, but rest assured that this is only for the event and will never be required outside of it.
Lastly, the theme of this arena will be Class Kits and Narrative! The mod team intends to design enemies with kits influenced by an overarching narrative so as to encourage more passionate thread replies and interaction with teammates. It's a bummer when you write a fun reply and your teammates seem to not have even read it, thus missing opportunities to interact. For this reason, teams will not be required to reach a certain HP threshold with their enemies to pass to the next round. Instead, the mod team will be looking at team activity. No longer than 12 hours should pass between posts and you should constantly be communicating with your teammates to ensure that your team is moving.
Signups will close at 11:59PM EST on November 15th so that we have time to sort teams and assign classes. Let us know if you have any questions! Additionally, we will be taking volunteers to help us put together the combat documents and double-check team math each round. If interested in being a scorekeeper, please fill out this form.
- The House Leaders

hi meda!
i’m so sorry it’s been so long since i’ve popped into your inbox! ❤️🩹 life’s been kinda wild for the past while, but i always keep up with your blog and hope you’re doing well (also i always gotta check in when i see you’ve done a theme change bc your themes are always so gorgeous!! 😍)
but i just wanted to say that i really appreciated your election post about having hope ❤️ i have been so wracked with anxiety (as i know many are) and it was just such a nice breath of fresh air to read ☺️ i know there will still be anxiety-filled hours and days ahead, but i also am trying to follow your example and feel hopeful! 💕
again, i’m so sorry i haven’t checked in for a while, but i’ll just close by saying that you are such a lovely and wonderful person and i wish you nothing but the absolute best! 🥰🥰
with lots of hugs and mugs of yummy warm beverages,
charlotte 🩵
Charlotte, my dear friend!! No need to apologize whatsoever!! I'm so glad to hear from you whenever I do, no matter how much time it's been. If anything, I think I owe you an apology for not letting you know sooner that I loved the Halloween brackets polls you were doing on @historical-fashion-polls!! I've been quietly following and participating in all the different polls because I have a bit of a passing interest in historical fashion. And I can confidently say that your blog has increased that interest tenfold. It just makes me so happy for you when I see your posts and the sort of discussions you create through them. Your blogs are the kind that make me go yes!! this is what I joined tumblr.com for!! so massive kudos on everything you put into that blog because I cannot imagine the work that goes into maintaining such a wonderful little space!!
Putting election talk under the cut since this reply is already getting long and just in case folks don't wanna hear my thoughts!!
Fun fact: I almost didn't publish that post to begin with! Sometimes I'll have a little thought and I'll start to draft up a tumblr post about it before telling myself, "no one wants to hear what you think <3" and then inevitably deleting it.
But that one felt important to publish. My younger brother was expressing some of his anxieties to me the other day. And I relate to him entirely because I was in the exact same position as him in 2016. I was that queer teenager going to a high school comprised of a mostly conservative staff and mostly conservative classmates who were parroting their parents beliefs. It was a terrifying time. It still is now.
And I figured now that I'm older, I'm going to try to be the encouraging, loving, and optimistic adult I needed back then. Because, yes, there are plenty of folks going out and voting for regression. But there are so many more people deliberately choosing the exact opposite. There are so many people this time around who are planting their feet firmly in the ground and are ready to do what they need to push us forward. And I have to hold onto the glimmering hope in that reluctance to succumb to the ever present ignorance and decay in this country. That is the indomitable human spirit. And I believe in that more than anything else.
Anyhoo. I'm glad that my little vent offered any sort of comfort at all. We've all gotta stick together, especially in times like these. Thank you for the little check-in, Charlotte. Please, please, please take care of yourself. Sending you lots of hugs and your favorite homemade baked goods for the holiday season!! 💛

what does my love life look like for march? I'm h.r.e. & an aries. You have my permission to read me <3 I am in a relationship.
Hi! Thank you for participating!
Cards I got for you: the lovers , 5 of swords( rv) and king of pentacles ( rv)
The lovers tell me that there may be good bonding between you two in the month of March. I feel there have been some problems recently in your relationship like some disagreements, or arguments, etc. You two will try to discuss those and find a solution to them. There will be meaningful and heartfelt communication between you two. I see two people sitting down and having deep and relevant talks with each other. I also see someone giving a gift to another. I saw a person having a heart shaped toy or balloon in their hands and giving it to their partners. Lovers is a beautiful card to start a relationship reading , also it being a major arcana , the theme of your relationship for the month of March will revolve around this card a lot.
With 5 of swords in reverse, I see some past resentments like you two regretting why you acted in that way in the past and asking for forgiveness. You or your partner must have done something upsetting in the past leading to problems in the relationship. Both of you will regret for those and try to keep in intact the foundation of your relationship. You two will come ahead and try to make some changes in yourself to suit the taste of each other and of the relationship. Relationship is all about adjustments and making amendments, therefore, there will be much focus on these things in the month of March.
With king of pentacles in reverse, be careful to not to spend too much on each other. There may be financial problems going on the part of you or your partner, so try not to be too much open with spending money on each other. Try to be a little miser for the betterment of future. Also , be grounded and accept your faults if you have done it. Do not blame it on each other and ruin your personal time and space. At the time of reconciliation, you two may have the tendency to blame things on each other and try to act like as if you or them are all innocent and didn't do anything wrong. Accept your flaws and move on with no grudges and guilt.
Any advice for you ( I got the fool reversed)
Try to put more efforts in your relationship and make it more lively and fun. If you don't, the relationship may become dull and repetitive and this may lead to you and your partner losing interest in it. Also, make your boundaries clear with your partner and let them know what you like and what you do not. This will also help them to know their own boundaries. Crossing boundaries in relationship may lead to problems like not trusting your partner enough and keeping an eye on their every activity.
Any advice for your partner ( I got 6 of cups)
Your partner may be the kind of person who loves to give you a lot ( either material gifts or emotionally). As I told you above, you need to put efforts, because your partner seems to be putting a lot of efforts on their side and when you see you not being as enthusiastic as them, they lose all their emotions and resent you. You two need to sit down and reminisce the good memories of the past and be better for each other.
What you both can do to bring more fun in the relationship?
I got the star reversed, showing their may be loss of trust on both of your side if you don't take action fast. The excitement that your relationship once had is going downhill and you both don't want that at all. You two need to focus on the good side of each other and appreciate it and welcome their unrevealed side too. There needs urgent deep communication between you two if you want to bring the spark back in your relationship.

Happy Fathers Day Celebration!
Happy Fathers Day Celebration is tomorrow and there are many ways to celebrate Father’s Day in Canada. Each family has their own way of celebrating, but some common ways include giving gifts, treating dads to a special meal, watching movies, going fishing, and going to parks or other places of interest. Additionally, Canadians would also say “Happy Father’s Day” to their fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, fathers-in-law, foster parents, uncles, and other men who stand and act as a father figure to them.
Happy Fathers Day Celebration Some people also participate in Father’s Day fun runs and other events in which the proceeds go towards charity or prostate cancer research. Give you Dad a hug! Prepare him a home cooked meal!
Happy Fathers Day Celebration!
Here are 10 interesting facts about Father’s Day: 1. Father’s Day originated in America and the first unofficial celebration was held in Spokane, Washington on June 19th, 1910³. 2.

Happy Fathers Day Celebration ! 3. Father’s Day takes place on the third Sunday in June every year. 4. The first modern Father’s Day was rooted in tragedy. On July 5, 1908, a small church in West Virginia held the first public event meant to specifically honor the fathers of their community. The day was held in remembrance of the 362 men who were killed the previous December in a mining explosion at the Fairmont Coal Company. 5. Roses were originally a big part of the Father’s Day celebration but the first Father’s Day included a church service where daughters would hand red roses to their fathers during the mass. 6. In 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson proclaimed that the third Sunday in June would be officially known as Father’s Day. 7. In 1972, President Nixon made Father’s Day a national holiday. 8. There are 121 million men over the age of 15 in the United States and among them, 75 million are fathers to biological, step or adopted children. 9. Father’s Day is the fourth largest holiday for sending cards in the U.S., behind Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day and Christmas. 10. According to Hallmark, 72 million Father’s Day cards are purchased each year.

15 Questions 15 Mutuals
The rules are: Answer the 15 questions and tag 15 of your mutuals.
oh, shit, it's going to be hard for me to tag someone, because the people I talk to are already tagged (and I'm embarrassed to bother someone else who doesn't even know me), so there's no continuation of the chain from me
thanks for the tags: @elizakai and @asterclaw this is very important to me and it was fun to participate in something like this 🍮💛✨ I highlighted the short answers to the questions in bright black, if it turns out that there are too many rants
1. Are you named after anyone?
mmm, yes, I was named the same as one of my maternal grandmother's parents. as it turned out later, my paternal grandfather's parent was also called that. so I guess I was named after two people, heh
2. When was the last time you cried?
tonight, but the day is not over yet, so I have everything ahead of me
3. Do you have kids?
do my classmates and acquaintances on the Internet count? but there are no real children and I don't think there will be, because I understand that I won't make the best parent
4. What sports do you play/have played?
in elementary school, I had a physical education teacher who mistreated me, said unpleasant things to me and underestimated my grades for not completing tasks that I could not physically complete because of my age. after that, for a long time I had a feeling of fear of any sports attributes. I just started shaking like a little dog, just from being near the gym. now, thanks to the teacher at the institute, I have been studying for 5 semesters. now I like to swim underwater! and maybe play badminton
5. Do you use sarcasm?
perhaps involuntarily, because it's hard for me to understand when someone uses sarcasm. although one of the teachers at the institute called me a sarcastic person
6. What's the first thing you notice about people?
their behavior and communication with other people. this works both in reality and on the internet. maybe their clothes, because I'm interested in how people combine different elements in their outfit
7. What's your eye color?
mmm, take a few shades of gray - from light to dark. because in my dark gray eyes, light shades literally form stars or flowers around the pupil
8. Scary movies or Happy endings?
happy ending. I can literally feel the feelings of the characters on the screen. therefore, as a child, until I found a pattern, I was sick and shaking after watching some movies. therefore, now I'm looking for ways not to hear one couple at recess, whose horror films are a favorite genre, heh (although I love documentaries describing the disclosure of crimes (for example, "The investigation was conducted with Leonid Kanevskiy" about which Kogotok should know))
9. Any talents?
mmm, I don't think so. perhaps only an amazing ability to find various strange situations, but this is most likely an inherited talent from my father. this weirdo can get into trouble without even wanting to. that mom remembers every time something happens to me, heh
10. Where were you born?
oh, I could have been born somewhere in the forest in the north of the country, but, after all, I was born in the west of the country on the snowiest and coldest day. there is a lot of snow, frost and winds on every birthday. and it lasted until my sixteenth birthday. maybe that's why this is my favorite time. (country Russia)
11. What are your hobbies?
is reading fan fiction considered a hobby? because otherwise I don't have it, ha. drawing small drawings and crocheting is more like a distraction and self-therapy than a full-fledged hobby
12. Do you have any pets?
one cat, but she's more than just a pet. she has been living with us for 13 years, and I have no one closer than this arrogant, but beloved lump of wool
13. How tall are you?
5′ 7″ or 168-170 centimeters, and I want to be even higher
14. Favorite subject in school
biology because of a teacher who treated me well, and I was interested in learning something new about this subject in high school (in high school we repeated the average program in this subject, so I didn't even open textbooks, but I could answer any question) and mathematics. algebra or geometry, I easily solved problems and examples and kept wondering when this moment would come, what happens to everyone, because of which they hate mathematics. but this never happened (although my math teachers tried very hard, understating my grades and forcing me to solve examples and problems that we had not yet studied in class). In fact, I hated school because of the amount of homework and the attitude of some teachers towards students and their subject
15. Dream Job?
I don't do anything, and I get paid enough for my existence so that I can have a good time and feel great. hey! you're asking about a dream job, not a real job! but if you choose from real vacancies...then I don't know. as a child, I had no dreams of becoming an artist, a navigator or a doctor. maybe a trucker? I love roads and long trips. after all, even before I was born, I had already made a long journey, heh (when mom was pregnant, they moved almost across the country for thousands of kilometers)
If anyone wants, they can also participate in this game, it's fun 🫧🩵✨

The Choosing
Pairing: Daichi x f!reader (ft. Captain Squad <3 and Sakusa)
WC: 3.2k
Genre/Warnings: Crack/Bad Humor, Smut, Romance, Reverse Harem, Royalty AU!, mention or hints of size kink, exhibitionism, creampie, breeding kink, dick and ball worship, you’re perverted and gross
Summary: You are the Princess of the Kingdom of YoreNaym and you need to choose a husband.
Repost from my main because I say so. Lee... :gru: i miss u
Also, no beta we die like Daichi.
It’s a tradition carried through many, many generations that the daughters of nobility from the Kingdom of YoreNaym must choose a suitor from the eligible bachelors from the neighboring kingdoms. It’s a show of kinship to the other kingdoms and also a means of securing peace.
At some point, everyone’s sister’s cousin’s second uncle’s sworn brother’s adopted daughter’s nephew twice-removed will be related and connect back to the Kingdom of YoreNaym. In short, the blood of this kingdom’s daughters unite the lands. No incest, there’s enough genetic diversity, if you will. And because you are also a princess of this kingdom, it’s your turn. Yay.
While growing up, you hear the elders say that the youngsters should be grateful that they have the agency to at least pick a suitor. They spin their looms and cackle, reminiscing that, “Back in our days, we didn’t get to have a choice. Our elders appointed a spouse for us from whichever kingdom had a suitor. Unlike you girls who get to choose, ungrateful wenches…”
Does it really matter? It’s just the false pretense of choice, isn’t it? At the end of the day the selection of eligible bachelors are all chosen ahead of time, deemed worthy, and then after the initial picking, you are just allowed to pick. It doesn’t matter who you choose, any one of them will fit the criteria. Maybe you’ll just close your eyes and pick one randomly. Can you actually say, “I’ll choose my own hand and marry myself.”
That’s pretty brave, hell yea that’s a main character move right there. Speaking of which, who are the eligible bachelors you can choose from today? It’s practically your engagement day, yet you really haven’t been paying any attention at all.
“Hey,” you whisper, lifting the curtain of the palanquin. A maid quickly answers to your beckon.
“Yes, my lady?”
“Who are the candidates today again? You have a...list or brochure of sorts?”
“Just a moment, my lady, I’ll retrieve the scroll for you.”
You open the scroll and peruse the contents. Huh, all the neighboring kingdoms are going all out this year. There’s the Kingdoms of Nekoma, Inarizaki, Fukurodani, Aoba Johsai, Shiratorizawa...Wow, even Johzenji and Nohebi have candidates? Funny, all of these are all presenting their crown princes too. As they should, you are the most beloved princess of the Kingdom of YoreNaym, and the suitor you choose will bring you back as a blessing to his kingdom. It’s a total bummer that the Kingdom of Itachiyama isn’t participating this year. Sakusa’s crown prince succession is next year! You have heard so many swoon worthy stories about that princeling, even paid handsome amounts of money for paparazzi paintings of the beautiful man. No one will find out that the princess of YoreNaym actually hoards little pictures of Prince Sakusa in her panties drawers. It’s a shame you aren’t picking your husband next year.
There’s one more Kingdom on the list that surprises you. Kingdom of Karasuno, or more commonly referred to as the Kingdom of “Fallen Crows”. According to legends, they used to be quite a prosperous kingdom, but after a few generations of inept leadership, a drought, and poor trade economy...the Kingdom has mostly faded into obscurity. It’s been years since a suitor candidate has been offered. So who is it?
“Sawamura Daichi,” you whisper to yourself, “Interesting.”
The festival ground outdoors is especially grand. There are a huge number of tables prepared off to the side for guests. Trays of food, fruits and wine are provided for every single guest in attendance. You are led by the attendants to the temporary throne seat as the guest of honor. As you make your way to the throne, all the guests stand up to acknowledge your entrance. It’s so pressuring and a part of you wishes you can just dig a hole and bury yourself on the spot. You don’t even want to think about how many eyes are on you. They are all just jealous because, really. Take my word for it, I’m the narrator.
When you take a seat, the guests reseat themselves. A shaman comes to the center stage and bows to you.
“My lady, the time is auspicious, let us commence the Festival of Unity. At this time, I’ll be introducing the eligible bachelors from neighboring kingdoms near and far. They have passed the arduous tests and come as the best to offer in asking for your hand. Each of the suitors will present to you with a talent or skill, as to show you their excellence. After the demonstrations, you will be allowed to take your pick. Whereupon you will—”
“Okay, I get it! They will participate in a talent show, we clap, and I choose a husband, I got it!” You snap, cutting the shaman’s words off. Your patience is wearing thin.
A number of guests can be heard mumbling in the crowds, probably commenting on your behavior. Your eyes scan the guests, you can care less. Judgmental eyes, scheming eyes, lecherous eyes, disgusting eyes....Your gaze meeting with a pair of eyes that are absolutely blank. Wait, not blank as in emotionless. Non-judgemental? The opposite of unkind? Dare you say, polite? He gives you a smile and returns to taking a sip from his goblet. You scan his clothing up and down to look for his family crest. Black and orange. A crow. Karasuno.
Your thoughts are jumbled as an increasing amount of questions fill your mind. He? Karasuno? That Kingdom of Fallen Crows? You barely hear the shaman announce the first candidate.
“Bokuto Koutarou from Kingdom of Fukurodani.” Bokuto is a very large, very well built man. He is wearing his family crest of an owl across his back proudly. You can tell his chest is incredibly broad, the bulge of his big tiddies stretch the tight shirt he’s in. If you squint hard enough, you can maybe see the outline of his nipples through the training shirt, but maybe that’s just your perverted imagination too. Bokuto comes to the center stage and greets you.
“Hey! I’ll uh, demonstrate my strength to you, my lady.” He easily picks up a huge hunk of metal and lifts it with ease above his head. Damn beefiness, those arms of his. Seeing the bulges flex when he flexes has you dreaming of mouth along that delicious flesh. And when he pins you down under his massive body? Ooh, if this is the first demonstration, you’re excited to see the whole lineup today. Gasps and murmurs can be heard in the crowd. Bokuto grins and drops the load on the ground. You can almost feel the tremors beneath your feet. Truly, a herculean feat.
“Thank you, Bokuto, I have seen your demonstration and all those here are witnesses.”
Bokuto’s demonstration is a showy start of the competition for your hand. The shaman announces the next candidate. “Ushijima Wakatoshi from the Kingdom of Shiratorizawa.”
Ushijima walks up to the stage exuding the regal aura of nobility; a byproduct of his strict upbringing. The twin crests of an eagle decorate his shoulder pads. His expression is quite cold, but there’s a saying, “it’s always the quiet ones.” You lick your lips and study him some more.
“Greeting to the princess,” he says with a deep bow. “I also bring a demonstration of my martial prowess.” Ushijima takes off the bow and quiver of arrows from his back and nods at his attendant who then catapults three apples high up into the air. Everyone’s eyes follow the trajectory of the objects, squinting to see what’s happening. No way.
Ushijima draws the bow back and calmly shoots one arrow, perfectly spearing the three fruits along the shaft. The crowd bursts into cheers. You also find your tight grip on armrest loosening, the tension from the scene dissipating in a moment. Ushijima’s calmness, accuracy, decision-making...he would make a very suitable partner for sure. Co-workers of sorts, that is.
You know your marriage carries a lot of weight politically and the fate of the whole universe will rest on your decision. Maybe not the whole universe, but close enough. But, marital bliss is important too right? Is Ushijima the right choice? There are still many more candidates, it’ll be best not to make a rash decision. Your gaze wanders over back to the Karasuno prince who is clapping earnestly for Ushijima’s performance. He’s acknowledging a rival’s strength, you think to yourself. Well, that’s certainly a rare but admirable trait. A confident man, he is.
After Ushijima’s demonstration, Oikawa Tooru’s enchanting musical performance offers a much desired change of pace. The rhythm and melody from his zither carries both the energy of fortitude as well as a graceful spirit. Quite stunning, but just not quite the musical vibe you’re feeling at the moment. Bummer, maybe a different day, really. Could be friends?
Kuroo Tetsurou from the Kingdom of Nekoma offers a particularly memorable performance too. Kuroo comes to the center stage with a trough filled with flames. Everyone is at a loss as to what is going on. Kuroo flashes you a grin before taking out a few pouches containing some powders. In a poof, the flames burst alive with colors blending blues and purples. And moments later yellows and greens, even reds. No one has ever seen fire change color like so.
“Witchcraft!” someone gasps.
“No it must be alchemy. Dangerous craft,” another adds.
Kuroo bows to you. “My lady, this is called chemistry, a discipline of science.”
Kuroo’s smiles teeter on the edge of flirtations and you cannot deny that your heart flutters just slightly when you see his crooked grin. He’s intelligent, humorous, and attractive. Definitely also a contender. A union with him might be fun. And especially when you see Kuroo run a hand through his messy, black locks and give you a piercing gaze, you almost wonder if this is the feeling of chemistry. It feels like you are naked under his seductive, golden eyes, completely submitted to his will and absolutely drugged. And you fear that if he sends you another one of his grins, you’ll come untouched. Dangerous, send him off immediately.
“Thank you, Kuroo, I have seen your demonstration and all those here are witnesses.”
After Kuroo, many more candidates also come to the center stage for their demonstrations. Kita Shinsuke from the Kingdom of Inarizaki composes and recites poetry on the spot. His literary talents and mastery of public speech move a very large crowd of the literati officials. Kita is a charismatic leader and commands confidence. But he doesn’t seem to be the best fit. Your brain says ‘yes’, but your coochie just isn’t feeling it. The nerve signals say no.
Terushima Yuuji demonstrates a one-man comedy show, but his storytelling skills, although humorous, fall just a little short after Kita’s. Had Terushima been slotted for a different position, perhaps he would make a stronger impact.
Daishou Suguru. Interesting. But tongue itself will eventually get boring too.
A few more candidates demonstrate their talents to you. Most of them fail to impress you at all. Your blank expression is more than enough to make a few almost shit their pants or cry on the way they exit the stage. It’s really not their fault, you’re just a bit tired after seeing so many performances and demonstrations. You are just trying to find the best fit after all. It’s your duty and responsibility as the muthereffing princess of the Kingdom of YoreNaym.
“Sawamura Daichi from the Kingdom of Karasuno.”
The crowd is silent as Daichi stands up from his seat and makes his way to the center. His shoulder is relaxed and his head is held high. He doesn’t have the large build of Bokuto nor is he decked out in regal fabrics like Ushijima. His hair is simple and clean. His expression is polite and pleasant. Amongst the sea of beautiful and talented men, Daichi is like an ordinary seashell buried in the sand. But like how too many bites of dessert beckon the simplicity of water, Daichi’s humble presence makes him stand out in particular.
Daichi bows deeply. “I send my deepest regards to the princess. I am Sawamura Daichi from the Kingdom of Karasuno.”
“Please rise, Sawamura. What demonstration do you bring to me today?”
“My lady, I have nothing showy in particular. I only bring myself. And please feel free to call me Daichi.” You can feel his piercing gaze on you, confident and assertive. So he has some guts. It beckons you to submit, but you bite back. Grrrrr.
“Just yourself? That’s quite cocky of you Daichi. Others bring talents and demonstrations of qualities that make them fit as my suitor. What do you have to offer for me to choose you? Or is that something you are not looking for at all?”
“Karasuno,” Daichi begins, “Karasuno is a good kingdom. For many years long ago, our people have suffered greatly and we have gained a poor moniker. However, for the last few years, the kingdom has made significant progress and improvements. Alongside my brethren and officers of my court,” Daichi gestures to his entourage sitting off to the side, “We have come a long way. ”
“You tell me much about your home, Daichi, but what about you?”
Daichi pauses for a moment to collect his thoughts. He is well aware of the pressures you are putting on him, testing his convictions to the limit. You are a princess after all, so it’s only natural that you test his qualifications. Diachi swallows his nerves and faces your confrontation head on.
“I come to tell you the truth, my lady. I cannot hide these facts about myself or my kingdom. I am truthful, honest, but I have an unshaken belief that my kingdom will prosper because I have my closest and trusted with me. Each of them have their talents and strengths. Karasuno is a band with a bit of everything, and we’re family.”
You inwardly sigh. It seems like Daichi won’t be completely living up your hopes. At first you thought that his confident yet humble demeanor must hide something. Something incredible, because he can sit back and freely applaud other men for their talents. Something remarkable because he doesn’t feel the need to jump out in front of others. Something big. Very big.
“I don’t doubt your family’s bond or strength, but I am here to choose a suitor, a husband in layman's terms. So, I suppose that—”
“Wait,” Daichi cries out, and gestures towards his Karasuno brethren.
A tangerine head jumps up and brings out a scroll. He skips a few steps towards you and passes the document over to the shaman who brings it to you.
“My resume, if you will, my lady. I have no other talents but what is shown there.”
You glance at Daichi, studying him closely. From his clenched fist, you can tell that even in this moment, he’s a bit shaken and nervous. You undo the ties on the scroll and unravel the contents.
All eyes are fixed on you, trying to decipher every microexpression you make. The slight widened eyes, the twitch of the brow. The slight part of the lips and the deep breathes from you trying to calm the invisible fire that’s building in your core. It’s big. If the resume is accurate, Daichi’s demeanor truly is hiding a beast. A massive, humongous, schlong. Finer than any specimen you have seen in banned pictorial books you read and hide under your massive princess bed.
The sheer size and girth of the XL 2d image is rendered in X-TRA fine detail. You brush a finger onto the parchment, tracing the lines depicting the veins running along the shaft. You gulp, rubbing your finger down what is drawn as a big, swollen tip that’s glistening. Artists these days are so detail-oriented, it looks as if precum is just dripping from the tip and shimmering. So realistic, you just want to take it all into your mouth. To gag or to choke. Neither are a question.
The balls, those massive balls that are the storehouses for an endless supply of fresh cum. Organics from the finest the kingdom has to offer. Precious jewels hanging at the base, ripe for your licking. It looks so juicy and plump and you want nothing more than to rub your cheeks, cooing at how cute they are.
You know it’s good. It better be good if the painting is depicting something this sumptuous. If this is the real deal, then you really have nailed the jackpot and secured a brilliant future for yourself. Marital bliss. Bedroom adventures. Bedroom adventures where he’ll fulfill every nightmarish fantasy you ever have. It’ll be hard at first, your cunt’s so tight and he’s so big! But it’s okay, you’ll take him like the royal princess you are because the Kingdom of YoreNaym raises whores and sluts only!
No scratch that. Coital activities can take place anywhere. Maybe you’ll cockwarm him while the two of you hear what the morning court has to say about the affairs of the kingdom. Maybe you’ll find yourself tumbling around in the garden after a cute game of hide and seek, skirt hiked up, as he fucks a grass stain into your back! Okay. That might not be the best idea. Perhaps just once. For novelty’s sake.
But hear me out, when you are sneaking into the kitchen for some snacks, he’ll pin you on the large baker’s table and just take you right there to fuck his babies into your womb. His cock pumping into you as the table creaks and shakes from his thunderous movements. He’ll fill you to the brim with copious amounts of his hot cum, heaps and heaps of them, just like the baker fills the buns with cream custard in the most obscene fashion ever. Watch your belly rise and bulge up like pastries in the oven. Oooh cummies.
You sigh and squirm in the seats as you continue examining the masterpiece of a dick. You feel your heartbeat racing wildly as if you are caught tinkling in the castle fountain. It’s unknown if you ever did that, by the way. Just saying, your memory is failing you just a tad. But oh gosh, you’re wet already. The slick pooling between your folds is just soaking through your princess panties; the ones in the drawer where you keep all your secret prince Sakusa drawings heehee. But Sakusa’s pretty face aside, you are now face to face with the most magnificent dick pic you’ll ever receive. Not really unsolicited, but damn work of art. Literally.
The crowd is silent when you clear your throat and roll up the scroll, taking extra care to not let anyone else touch your new precious treasure. You lean forward and perceive Daichi. Daichi gives you a cocky grin, showing his teeth. Slightly stained with the wine, but it’s just temporary. It doesn’t matter as long as the real deal is...well, real.
Daichi catches your eyes wandering to the outline of the bulge between his legs. The glorious dickprint that he’s casually showing to everyone present. It puts Herculean Bokuto to shame, Ushijima into a blushing mess. Kuroo nearly snorts his colored powders. Daishou’s tongue hangs out and dries. Oikawa is sent to the medics. Kita no longer waxes poetry about the weather. Terushima leaves the party early.
Daichi is smug and casually asks, “My lady, would you like to examine the goods? I am a pure man and would not carelessly offer tastes to anyone. But you are a princess of the Kingdom of YoreNaym. You can have a sampling before you commit. Satisfaction guaranteed.”
