I can’t stop getting emotional about how tenderly a shepherd caresses his dog’s face on this marble sarcophagus from the third century
The dog’s face is just so lovingly crafted and it’s much more finely detailed than some of the other animals in the piece. The expression is pure contentment and devotion. This scene is a tiny portion of a huge elaborate sculpture but I really feel like the artist was trying to capture a specific emotion with these two. The way that you feel when you look at your dog is thousands of years old.
Can’t believe I’m taking orders from a fucking toddler right now. You know, my entire life, I had to listen to everybody acting all worried about him all the time. “He’s a baby.” Don’t get Carmen into trouble.“

i would NEVER have a praise kink... the fact i moaned when you caressed my cheek and said i was such a good girl is just a coincidence. i just felt like doing that
