What did you think about Pixie Strikes Bad? I just read it and it felt pretty bad.

I might do a bigger review of it since this reply is really disjointed lol…. But I see it as: Not KYOST levels… but still kind of fun.

I see it on par with “SMaTXM” - is it THE BEST or most DEEP representation of Hellion or Rockslide? No, but it’s still entertaining…

I LOVE “valley girl” Megan and honestly I am always kind of sad that they removed that aspect of her character after KYOST and PSB. I also liked that Pixie isn’t as self assured as many of the other teen girls that have been pushed previously (Kitty, Jubilee, Hisako, ect…)- Megan just wants to be liked. There’s a vapid and at times petty side to her, that makes her vulnerable to manipulation, and I am kind of sad we’ve lost that in her representation because I actually thought it made her more interesting.

I didn’t care for tying Pixie to Mastermind and liked that Pixie came from a poor family/I felt like she already HAD a lot going on with Magik stealing her soul that she didn’t really NEED this backstory….but it is what it is. Pixie probably was inevitably going to be tied to magic or Otherworld or something inevitably down the line ANYWAY.

Laura’s representation is pretty “meh” but by no means the WORST she’s ever been written. Mercury and Armor are great in it. Emma, Rockslide, and Nightcrawler…not so much 😕

I actually thought recently about how PSB is kind of a early Williams “X-Terminators” kind of book and how funny it is that Laura ends up constantly in this kind of book style…

I liked the “high school” fantasy hijinks (it felt like a call back to the original “Gen X” or “Kitty’s/Magik’s fairytales!) and Pichelli pretty much just KILLS it with the art. It feels like a callback to Bachalo or Skottie Young! Everyone just looks damn AMAZING in it.

Honestly it’s why I was so disappointed with Christina Strains “Gen X vol.2”- I thought after reading PSB it would be a semi decent teen book… or at least not so boring as it ended up being….

“Pixie Strikes Back” I would say is better than “Wolverine and the X-Men” and the long list of other dismal teen books we’ve gotten over the years. It has its flaws and it’s definitely not KYOST or DeFilippis/Weir levels…but I am fine with it.

Top 10 Abandoned Webcomics still readable today

It’s been 3 years since Cucumber Quest has been on the dreaded hiatus, so here are the other abandoned webcomics still readable today.

1. Quiltbag

A sequel to the webcomic, Penny and Aggie. It only lasted two chapters, because a man named T. Campbell hated the aesthetics of the comic. http://quiltbag.keenspot.com/

2. Wayward Sons: Legends

A superhero webcomic by Benny Powell, and three Korean authors. It lasted from 2010 to 2013. There was promise that the comic would return in 2015, but as of 2022, nothing has been seen. http://waywardsons.keenspot.com/

3. Blue Yonder

Another superhero comic that ran from 2010 to 2013. It had a Smackjeeves page. There were promises the comic would return, but nothing has happened since then. https://www.blueyondercomic.net/

4. Candi

A slice of life comic by Starline X. Hodge, about a female redhead’s life in collage. It had a good 12-year run from 2004 to 2016, because in the latter year, Hodge burned out. She is now currently the author of Rubi Whipple. http://www.candicomics.com/

5. The Fox Sister

A webcomic written by Christina Strain and drawn by Jayd Aït-Kaci. It’s a Korean folktale that takes place in the 1960s. It lasted only 4 years. In 2017, there was a word that the final chapter was written, and an epilogue was in the works, but they were in development hell. http://thefoxsister.com/

6. The GaMERCat

A webcomic about cats that play video games. It was created by Sam “Celesse” Whitten. (Sam is a girl) It lasted the same runtime as Cucumber Quest. By the way about the two webcomics, they both have cats, both had a runtime, and both are by female authors. http://thegamercat.com/

7. Super Mario Bros 2: The Comic

A sequel to the Bob-ombed Disney movie, Super Mario Bros. It has been abandoned for 7 years. However, you can look forward to Universal/Illumination’s Super Mario Bros. (Hopefully it will be good, but I will not have Mario in a Wreck-It Ralph movie, because I hate Wreck-It Ralph, because it’s Disney’s carbon copy of Shrek.) http://smbthecomic.com/

8. Finder’s Keepers

A comic created by Garth Graham. It is an urban fantasy about Cardinal, Lord of Aspect of the Primary Directions and some other stuff, and Cailyn Asher. It has only run through a prologue and six chapters, while Cucumber Quest ran though a prologue and 4½ chapters. It is currently on indefinite hiatus as of 2012, due to Graham’s citings of professional obligations that took prime concern over the comic. https://www.finderskeepers.gcgstudios.com/

9. Derelict

An abandoned comic by Ben Fleuter. It’s a post apocalyptic comic about a woman, a boat, and sea. It was short-lived. The comic isn’t going to return, due to citings of climate change and racism. Despite this, the spirit will carry on in one form or the other. (If a similar event like this happens to Cucumber Quest, the spirit of it will carry on from one form or the other.) https://derelictcomic.tumblr.com/

10. Zoophobia

Before Hazbin Hotel, Vivienne Medrano made this comic that was short-lived. The reason why it is short-lived is that because of the author’s changes in her personal life. (Gigi DG had it too.) Lucky for you, it is now an animated series, you can check it out. http://zoophobiacomic.com/

Epilogue Cucumber Quest is still on indefinite hiatus, and it will end in illustrated script.

By the way, the author is creating a new comic about a male florist in love with a female clown, and it will be the author’s number one priority, going forward.

(Actually, it’s a visual novel!)

#i ran across the crosswalk and down the street on a strained leg to catch the bus which was sitting there the whole time the lights had #been changing (and it was past the intersection)#for it to take off AS I WAS RUNNING TOWARDS IT #it was also late but it would have taken them. 3 seconds. to pick me up i was literally right at the bus when it left #AND I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN LATE IF MY BUS BEFORE THAT HADN'T BEEN 10 MINUTES LATE #AAAAAAAAAAAAAA #this. is why i have trust issues.#i'm not actually blaming the bus drivers btw they're probably overworked and underpaid #and this wouldn't be a problem if we had more frequent buses and accurate times accounting for delays #i'm just SUPER FRUSTRATED RN #also i pretend cried at the intersection when i saw the bus already there and then i was like 'don't be so dramatic christina'#and i'm sure the cyclist passing me thought i was either losing it or being rude

simon (ghost) riley x fem bimbo!reader

!! smut - minors dni; cunnilingus; genital piercing (christina piercing); hinted age gap (30s v 20s); simon’s pov

: this is based on oddy’s brainworm of bimbo!reader getting a christina piercing while simon’s away for a 9-10 month mission as a surprise for when he comes home teehee <33 // bimbo!reader mlist

simon tries to swallow any remaining spit he has just to quench the building thirst in him, but it is understandably futile. he is left walking behind you with a spring in his step, pretences having flown into the wind the moment you barrelled towards him as soon as he got home.

it is a usual dance at this point: you, jumping into his arms all excitable, and him, planting his feet to catch you with ease. simon knows he’ll never tire of this routine, one that never fails to fill him up with over pouring affection that he carries for you.

“i have a surprise for you,” you whispered to him, your voice so small in your hushed giddiness.

you stared at him with sultry eyes, your bottom lip captured between your pearly teeth. simon felt his mouth go bone-dry, his chest stuttering and his fucking chub kicking up underneath his jeans because he knows that look.

dear gods, he knows that look.

the last time you surprised him with anything after his months-long mission, it left simon marking your thighs up with kisses and hickeys and bite marks, the ridges of his teeth so prominent on that single point that stood out in the expanse of your dewy skin – his callsign, ghost, inked on your inner thigh, somewhere close to the juncture of your legs and your pelvis.

so you can’t blame simon for being too interested and going all breathless in anticipation as you led him back to your room.

he’s fumbling for his steps as you two step inside – white walls and strawberry cow print sheets – where you proceeded to sit him down on your vanity before taking a few steps away from him.

“okay so,” you begin, swaying slightly, looking deceptively shy. “i really hope you’d like it.”

simon’s gaze shifts, desire warming to make room for the softness he feels. he shoots you a small smile. “y’know y’can give me a paper cup for your surprise and i’d still love it.”

“of course,” you giggle, rubbing your palms on your sides. “‘s just that i thought of you when i got it so, you know.”

simon’s throat constricts, his pulse quickening at your words – you thought of him when you got it. oh. oh fuck.

“i-” his voice cracks and simon ducks his head down in his embarrassment, clearing his throat quickly so that this moment may pass soon because he can feel himself bursting at the seams.

“thank you, sweets,” he finally utters, rubbing his palm along his face in hopes of abating the blush warming his cheeks.

you beam at him, all pretty and happy, before you begin to slide your skirt off.

jesus.

“oh,” he rasps out, a strained gasp spilling into the air. simon has to clench his fists on top of his thighs to restrain himself, feeling so faint at getting a flash of your pretty legs, his eyes trailing from your floral lace socks before climbing up to get a view of your pretty little lingerie.

his tongue feels heavy sitting in his mouth as he catalogues the little thing – sheer, red, and dainty. it’s not hiding anything, showcasing slivers of flesh that simon wants to sink his teeth into.

it’s not hiding anything so he wonders why it took him a while to notice it. there, nestled just above your clit, are two little diamond studs.

“are those-” his voice sounds strained even to his own ears, the words having been punched out from him as his lungs work over time.

“yeah,” you say with a quiet chuckle and simon briefly wonders how you must look right now but he can’t lift his head to look at you, unable to rip his eyes away from the twinkling diamonds on your body. one of your hands slide from your hips towards your pubic area, acrylics making soft scratching sounds against your sheer panties.

the gems on your nails matches your new piercing – christina, simon’s mind supplies right away – and he just about whimpers.

finally, simon’s eyes flit to your own, and he doesn’t know what he must look like because the brief shyness on your face melts away and desire begins to burn from your eyes. the tension is building between you two, settling in like a dense fog, and simon waits for a heartbeat and another before he’s lunging towards you.

hands tangle against each other in mutual desperation, blindly tearing apparel from each other’s bodies with nothing but twin ragged breaths to fill up the space. simon throws you to the bed, his chest heaving as he stands by the foot of it to gaze down at you, eyes full of palpable hunger as they rove over your presented body.

“mine,” simon rumbles. “all mine.”

he covers your smaller body with his bulk, trembling hands greedy as they press and pull and squeeze at your flesh. your tiny mewls fuel him as he bends down to hover his lips over your pussy. your beautiful, pierced pussy.

“simmy,” you hiccup, your voice a soft little thing. “please, no teasing.”

of course, he wants to say because simon is sure that he doesn’t even have it in himself to prolong it anymore. not when he’s missed you by a lot, having been away for one of his longest missions. and especially not after the gift you have for him.

simon’s silence ripples, promising, and he knows he doesn’t have to say any more.

he kisses your cunt with his lips, nuzzling just soon after. you gasp out from somewhere on top of him, your hands gathering the short strands of his hair in your fist, and tugging when simon doesn’t do anything more than ghost kisses.

simon presses another one as an apology before planting his hands on your thighs and pushing your legs open, presenting your already-wet cunt to him. briefly, he remembers your older gift, and simon shifts, nuzzling your inner thigh instead, nipping at your inked skin.

simon is not a narcissistic man but there is something so good at seeing you carrying his callsign, as though he’s branded you. claimed. marked.

you giggle at the touch, fists loosening just a bit, your legs losing their tension at the ticklish feeling. simon puffs out a huffed laughter, enjoying the moment, taking it all in, then he is moving.

because there is something else he wants in his mouth. something else he wants to explore.

the first drag of his tongue along your clit and up until the first stud of your piercing has you squealing, your small feet digging into the planes of his back. it pushes him even closer to your cunt, something that simon eagerly takes advantage of as he begins to eat you out with earnest.

the cool press of the barbell on his tongue is a new experience, one that he is beginning to love as he continues to lap his tongue along your folds. simon flicks his tongue over the piercing, careful not to truly tug it, before he’s moving on to suck on your clit, rolling the little thing on his tongue.

you choke on a moan, hips lifting off the bed as you thrash, and simon has to press down on your belly to subdue you. you squeak when you are pinned, fists leaving simon’s hair to claw at the sheets instead. simon kisses your clit once more as an apology, before lapping at your hole, pushing his tongue in to mimic shallow thrusts.

“si-!”

your moan sounds guttural, bouncing off of the walls as simon continues to fuck you with his tongue. your slick pools in his mouth and he doesn’t even recognize the answering growl that rumbles from the base of his throat – deep and primal.

his thick hands grip at your thighs, tugging you in a new position, forcing your back to arch as simon continues to make a mess of your pussy.

pretty, pretty pussy.

“s’mine,” simon growls the moment he pulls his tongue out to suck on your folds.

he lightly nips at your clit, and a choked sob falls from what he knows would be your bruised lips. you do tend to bite on them when drunk in your pleasure, nibbling until they are throbbing and plump, looking so kiss-swollen.

fuck. he wants to kiss you there too.

simon gives your clit one more suck before he lifts his head up, the warm air on your room hitting his damp face. he sees the way your chest is heaving before flitting his eyes over your hands to see them tremblingly fisting at your sheets. your head is tipped up, mouth open as you shakily gasp out your breaths.

“sweet girl?” he asks, wanting to see you.

you move slowly, sluggishly, and simon can’t fault you for your reaction as he can still feel your legs shaking. teary eyes turn to him and simon couldn’t help but coo, letting go of your legs to climb towards you.

you track his movement, still hitching in breath, until he’s finally hovering over you. simon presses his forehead to yours, nuzzling, and rumbling a deep hum when your arms hook onto his shoulders for a loose hug.

“hi,” you say with a giggle after the silence settles. simon huffs a fond laugh, shifting so his lips trail soft kisses along your cheeks.

“hi,” simon replies, his lips moving lower, teasing touches from the cut of your jaw to the column of your throat. he settles there, burrowing with a deep breath, hot desire waning for something softer. for something slower.

“…y’like it?” you ask, sounding so conscious as though simon didn’t lose himself when eating you out, leaving his dick to throb painfully underneath his boxers.

“oh, princess,” he says with a breathy chuckle. he shifts again to see you. “i fuckin’ loved it.”

your eyes crinkle when you smile, and simon wonders if his lungs are even working with the way his breath constricts.

fuck, reality is settling – he’s truly missed you.

“thank you for such a darlin’ gift, baby,” simon murmurs, his lips hovering over yours.

you hum, already deaf to his words as you turned your focus to the ghosting touch of his lips instead. you tip your head up, whining when even that doesn’t make them meet.

aww, simon coos in his head. sweets wants a kiss.

so he finally gives it, his head angled to kiss you deeper. harder. teeth clack against each other before warm tongues tangle, and simon wonders if you can taste yourself on him. if you can taste the way he made you feel good.

your nails scratch his back, and he knows shallow welts will be there when he checks tomorrow. but for now, simon loses himself to the messy kiss – nipping your lips and, later, lapping at your folds.

because he’s not done with you yet. he needs to eat you out more. needs to see the way your pretty, jewelled pussy takes his tongue the same way you do with his cock.

oh, how you spoil him.

i teeheed too much while writing this but then i got drunk so it kinda splintered away from what i envisioned 😭
