#the kiss 1988

[bitter69uk]

Recently watched: The Kiss (1988): many Generation X horror aficionados have fond memories of this one (apparently it was ubiquitous on cable TV for years), but believe it or not, somehow, The Kiss had eluded me until now. It was filmed in Montreal, Quebec (substituting for suburban Albany, New York) and as a Canadian myself, I detect an ineffable low-budget Canadian vibe (and some of the supporting actors have Canadian accents). Following the gruesome death of her sister in a freak accident, long-lost Aunt Felice (Polish actress and model Joanna Pacula) resurfaces to console her hunky widowed brother-in-law (Nicholas Kilbertus) and teenage niece (Meredith Salenger). Felice is inscrutable, feline, possesses the sultry looks of an haute couture fashion model (Pacula regularly graced Vogue magazine at the time) and is concealing a secret – she practices voodoo! (This chiefly involves a cursed talisman and lighting a LOT of candles and crouching in front of them). In no time, Felice is wreaking a path of bloody destruction. Most memorably: the grisly infamous “necklace-caught-in-shopping mall-escalator” sequence that I suspect psychologically scarred an entire generation. Anyway, The Kiss is objectively terrible and characterized by lame special effects and tepid performances (the exception: Mimi Kuzyk as the wacky neighbour seems to be in an entirely different film from everyone else) but packs a pulpy low-brow appeal. I remember when Pacula was hailed as “the next big thing from Europe” by Time magazine in 1983 alongside red-hot up-and-coming peers Isabella Rossellini and Nastassja Kinski. (The journalist raved about her “bat-wing eyebrows, Slavic cheekbones and a drop-dead look that can scald the screen”). Her international career began promisingly with Gorky Park (1983) but then descended to “erotic dramas”, straight to video action thrillers and – worst of all – Steven Seagal movies. It certainly wasn’t for lack of talent or beauty on Pacula’s part. Link.

NSFW Alphabet - David Friedman

Time for our favourite scruffy southern detective ;)

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

He likes to cuddle. Leant up a bit against the headboard with you snuggled up against his side with your head on his chest and his arms around you.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

He wouldn't say he particularly likes any part of his body. Only time he really considers his own body is when he notices how much various places ache from his job taking its toll. On you, it's your legs. It was the one of the first things he noticed about you and your legs have been a turn on for him ever since.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

Prefers inside you.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

This one's a dirty secret you share. No one can ever find out you and David once had sex in an interrogation room at the precinct.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

He's had a few partners, and he was married. He's experienced enough to know what he likes and how to please you.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Chair sex, with you straddling his lap. That way he can touch as much of you as he wants and have you nice and close.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

He's not overtly goofy or anything. He has a dry humour that surface at times, especially if you two are getting a bit creative and hurried.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

Shaving his face and combing his hair is about as much as he fusses with personal grooming, never mind anything else.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He’s a rough edges with a soft centre kind of guy. He may not be romantic with words but in his actions, things like the way he looks at you, how he strokes your hair and brushes his fingers down the side of your face. Moments like that feel very intimate and romantic.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

You can't always be together, but you're good at phone sex. You love listening to the sound of him pleasuring himself.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

He likes handcuffing you to the bed. Sometimes he'll let you put the cuffs on him. Like the time you cuffed him to a chair so he couldn't touch you while you gave him a lap dance. Satin and lace. The world he spends most of his time in is hard, bitter and ugly and he likes when he can distance himself from it. Part of that is he likes seeing his lover wrapped up in something soft, silky and pretty like lace lingerie or a satin nightgown.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

Pretty much anywhere at home. And the back seat of his car.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

When you wear tight pencil skirts and heels. He loves the way it makes your ass and legs look.

When you pull him in by his tie to kiss him.

Sass. Whether it’s aimed at him or someone else, he loves when you bust out the sassiness.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

No knife or gun play.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

He prefers to receive, but he will go down on you if you want him too. Not that he doesn't like it, he just thinks he's more skilled with his hands.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Kind of in the middle. He likes to take his time before he goes hard.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Sometimes you have to take advantage of time and/or place. A favourite is before work or if you can both get away during a lunch break or something.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

He's pretty happy with how things are, but if something gets him or you curious, he's usually willing to try it.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Twice. He lasts a decent amount of time, and he's thorough on the foreplay.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

Nothing that he'd gotten himself. But he did find the vibrator you had from before you got together and asked you to use it while he watched.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

He'd say he's not trying to tease, he's just enjoying himself. But the effect on you is the same.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Mid-range. Grunts and gasps.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

David’s job has him seeing the worst sides of humanity almost every day. He’s built up a hard shell, but it does still get to him, it hurts him, makes him angry and scared. He’s trying not to drown his feelings in a bottle so much. Instead he’ll bury himself inside you. Holding you tight, skin to skin, breath in your scent, brings him a feeling of peace and safety like nothing else.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

Average length but thick.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Pretty high. A combination of love for you, personal tension and wanting to make up for the times he's not there, you have a lot of sex.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

He’s got a bit of insomnia, so it usually takes him a while to fall asleep. Having you tucked up against him helps and listening to you breath and feeling your heartbeat helps lull him enough to sleep.

chuger dump 13 (but who's counting)

[peculiaritybending]

One of the many things I really love about Heathers is how JD and Veronica can very, very easily both be read as bisexual coded like it’s at the point where I’d believe you if you said it was intentional.

The kiss 💋

I started this art quite a while ago and finally finished it! Doctor and Captain are without their wigs here, it was very interesting to draw. I just adore this moment at the beginning of the book, where Jim is surprised by how Doctor's black hair and eyes contrast with his snow-white wig 😍

By the way, I was inspired to finish this work by my lovely friend Nastya, SmolLivesey is our favorite ship ❤️‍🔥

And also today is Nastya's birthday, so I congratulate her heartily and dedicate this artwork to her! 🥳🎉
