(monster vore, fatal vore, unwilling prey, fearplay, mildly suggestive themes)
🔞⚠️‼️ this is a NSFW blog. minors, ageless blogs, and “NSFW dni” blogs please stay away or be blocked. ye be warned.‼️⚠️🔞
you’ve really worked up my appetite, morsel.
the chase has been thrilling. nothing makes a meal more satisfying than a thorough hunt like this. i’ve been tracking you all night, and i’m closing in. your sprinting leaves an easy trail right toward you, you know. you’re not exactly subtle in your escape; knocking into bushes and branches, leaving an obvious wake of panic in your path. not to mention your sharp aroma of fear. it’s charming how hard you try, though.
someone with that kind of determination is just begging to be devoured.
i slow my pace and prick my ears. your scent hangs heavy in the air, thick with fear and adrenaline. i can hear your panicked breaths and pounding heartbeat. so delectable.
i prowl around slowly, drawing it out just for the fun of it. i’ve got you cornered, pretending i don’t quite know where you are. but i’m well aware. deep within my senses i can feel you trying to keep as quiet as possible. silly preything. it’s impossible to escape from creatures like me once we’ve selected our meals.
i follow your trail slowly, allowing myself to taste your fear-scent. i curl my lips over my sharp teeth and utter a deep, rumbling growl. an ominous warning to you that i’m dangerously close by. i hear your breath hitch. i chuckle.
you’re hiding behind a tree, poor thing. completely out of options, are you? that tree isn’t going to offer much protection. there’s nowhere left to run, morsel. i do love a good chase, it really adds a delectable flavor of fear to prey like you, but with your tantalizing scent so close, instinct begins to take over.
i leap around the tree and pin you to the earth with a snarl, peering down and drooling eagerly. you yelp as i knock you over, gasping for breath, and stare up at me with wide eyes. i grin menacingly in response, licking my lips with anticipation.
i lean in close, growling lowly, and slowly run my tongue up the nape of your neck to sample your favor; hearty, savory, and well-marinated in fright. my teeth graze your cheek lightly as i taste you, teasing you with just how sharp they are. you wince and try to pull away, but can do little against my strength. i chuckle again. god, you’re so delicious. you’re absolutely quivering beneath me, pleading and trying to squirm out of my grasp. i can already tell how wonderfully you’re going to wriggle in my gut.
drool trickles down from my lips and drops onto your cheek. you wince, curling away from me.
now that i’m on top of you, my weight pinning you down, you can properly hear my hunger. in this eerily quiet night, the only sounds that can be heard - besides your pathetic begging - are the loud, squelching groans coming from my stomach. i lean in closer over you, pin your ear to my belly and force you to listen in.
grrrrrn… grrrrgl…
the hunger pains are terrible to bear, but playing with my food is just too much fun. i watch you as you listen to my gut rumble and ache with malicious glee, enjoying how each groan makes you squirm.
i keep you pinned to my abdomen for a while longer and relish in your writhing. with every jerk, every kick and punch to my belly, you unleash a storm of thunderous whines and growls. my stomach knows how close you are now. every wave comes with pangs of hunger, pinches deep within my gut screaming at me to just eat, eat, EAT-
grrrRRrrrnnn… glrrrrbl… grrrrooouhhh…
i take in one last look of your delectable body, before opening my mouth over you with a humorous little “ahh~”. my jaws frame your head easily, the points of my teeth only slightly touching your skin. you’re given a perfect view of my gaping maw. my tongue laps at you again greedily, beckoning you deeper inside. my uvula is already bobbing with short, eager gulps, and the heat of my breath on your face is overwhelming. your fighting halts as you become paralyzed with fear.
i carefully close my mouth over your head and grab you by your shoulders, lifting you up slowly and gently as i tilt my head back. i hold you there in this humiliating position for a long moment before making the first swallow.
glrk-
my throat muscles suddenly pull you in up to your torso, your hips and legs dangling helplessly outside my mouth. you yelp, trying to wriggle free, but your arms are pinned to your sides. you struggle and try to fight against it, hoping to at least make me sick somehow and force me to spit you back out. but, oh, you do the opposite- the squirming lump in my mouth is utterly delightful. your efforts do nothing but make me all the hungrier.
glp- glrp- glrnk-
i swallow greedily. you’re forced deeper into my tight throat, the muscles rippling rhythmically as they work you down. everything is too hot, too humid. it’s all too much. suddenly you’re in up to your hips, then your legs, then-
glulp~
i can feel your form being forced down my throat, pulling you in deeper and deeper. i trace your path with my fingers, following you as travel downwards towards your destination, placing the other hand on my stomach. i want to feel my belly stretch out to accommodate you.
inside me, you’re slowly and unceremoniously dropped into my stomach with a loud squelch. everything becomes a thick haze as you senses are overwhelmed. it’s so hot in there. hot, humid, and uncomfortably tight. there’s not much room for movement, and the slick surfaces make it difficult to adjust at all. from somewhere above, you hear me sigh with satisfaction and hum gleefully.
grrrrRRRRHH…
as my body settles you in, the fleshy walls around you begin to ripple and come to life. they get to work, closing in on you to begin breaking you down by massaging my stomach acids into your skin. the trip down here has drained you of most of your energy, leaving you breathless and disoriented, but you gave a harsh kick and fight back anyway. the hungry growls that were heard before are now roaring in your ears.
GRRRRNNN… GRRRROOOWWWLL…
on the outside, your presence creates a noticeable bump in my belly. i can see you wriggling around, trying to fight my body with what little strength you have left. pounding on my stomach walls with your fists and kicking furiously. oh my… you feel so good in there… oh, it feels so good to finally be full…
i recline back and lay myself against the very tree you unsuccessfully tried to hide behind, both hands on my belly so i can fully experience your struggle. my tail thumps the ground happily as i run my clawed hands over my distended stomach, poking and pinching at you to encourage more of your tasty reactions.
you unleash a torrent of swears and continue to fight in vain, your voice becoming more and more panicked my walls continue to close in around you. all that movement in there is really stirring up my insides - a series of gurgles rumbles through me and i let out a satisfied burp. i lick my lips again, patting my tummy and losing myself in the pleasure of having you in there. what a wonderful little massage you’re giving me. so delicious, and so full…
grrrrgllll… glrrrp… grrrrrnnnp…
keep squirming, morsel.
you’re not going anywhere.

How about sweet and tender "Thank God You're Alive" comfort sex with Leon? Like, during the Darkest Day, Y/N got attacked by Eternatus trying to help Leon/save Hop and almost died (Leon actually got told by the doctors she was going to die) but survived. Now that they're home and together again, Leon absolutely needs to make love to her to not only show that he loves her but to know that she is THERE, alive and well, with him. And he cries. So much ;w; Pretty please? I'll make you your favorite pastry!
I’ve seen this ask on a few other blogs and would LOVE to try my hand at it (also sorry to disappoint you but I don’t eat sugar or sweet treats… I do love savory foods though 👀)
Sweet and tender nsfw, almost death, angst, marriage proposal
“Squeal as loud as you can, Love.”
Eternatus was horrifying.
It was massive, and loud, and more powerful than any Pokemon you’d ever seen.
Leon had told you not to follow him to take it on, but you didn’t listen. You needed to help him, so you raced after him.
He had already weakened it with Aegislash, Dragapult, and now Charizard… But it wasn’t enough. He told you to get somewhere safe, because he was terrified of losing you. The girl he had a ring box stored away in his closet for with a beautiful band inside.
But Eternatus had other ideas, it blasted you instead, despite Charizard’s attempts to cover you. You were flung across the top of Hammerlocke Stadium, and smashed your head right into the wall.
Leon had never seen so much blood, let alone how weakly you were breathing. Hop and Gloria were able to come in to help with Zacian and Zazamenta, so he could rush you to the hospital.
You were knocked out beyond belief, and stayed that way for many days. Leon hardly left your side. He barely ate, or slept. Just sat beside you and waited for you to wake up.
Oh how badly he wanted to propose after the match was over… But now you might be dead for all he knows. It could be all over.
But then.
Then you woke up.
Leon was overjoyed, and while being excited still tried to be as gentle with you as possible. You were able to go back to your shared apartment a few days later.
You had your arms wrapped around one another.
Leon was snuggled into your neck, “I missed you.”
You smiled, “I know. I missed you too… You big dork.”
He snorted, and left a soft kiss on your neck.
“Can I show you how much I missed you?” You felt him smirk against your neck.
“Horny already?”
Leon groaned at your response.
You pulled back from him, and batted your eyelashes up at him.
“Make love to me, Leon.”
He chuckled and scooped you up.
“I thought you’d never ask.”
The next few minutes were a whirlwind of movement. Leon gently lead you to the bedroom, locking the door just in case. The next thing you knew, you were on the bed with him on top of you, smothering your neck, and lips in kisses.
His tongue wove its way into your mouth as he gently began removing your clothes, and you fiddled with his belt.
You could already feel his dick straining his pants, and were quite excited to have him inside you again. But first you’d have to wait, as once you were undressed, Leon first stretched you out with his fingers as he left hickies all over your neck and shoulders.
He started with one, then it was two, then it was three. You were already dripping wet, and his lips all over your body only made you more sensitive. Your moans were soft and breathy, as Leon gently yet firmly tried to prepare you for him.
“Leon…” You mumbled, as he stroked against that sensitive spot inside you.
“I know, I know. You want the main event already… Are you sure, darling?” He smiled down at you.
You rapidly nodded, and he chuckled as he licked your juices off his fingers, and began getting rid of his boxers.
Leon gently and tenderly slid inside you, and his thrusts were calculated and slow. The room was filled with moans, groans, cries and whimpers for the other as you kissed one another.
Leon gazed down at you as he bottomed out inside you again.
“Fuck… Babe, I need you to marry me.”
You let out a soft moan and blinked up at him.
“Leon… Are you, mmfph… Are you proposing? With your dick inside me?”
He nodded, “Uh-huh. Couldn’t wait any longer.”
You chuckled, and brought him down for another kiss as your cunt clenched around him.
“Yes.”
He grinned down at you, and as a thank-you, you got to cum a total of eleven times that night. What can I say? Leon’s good with his tongue.

Hello! Is it possible to have a Kanroji Mitsuri x Reader (she/her) soft moment? Mitsuri coming back from a mission and the reader cooking her some food and bathing together and cuddling as they fall asleep? Thanks a bunch, your blog is truly an oasis of good writing ❤️❤️❤️
So This Is Love
Mitsuri Kanroji x She/Her Reader
A/N: Hi! Thank you! Yesss Mitsuri deserves so much love! Drown her in love! What a sweet request, hope you like how it turned out😊! Word Count: 1,448
“She’s on her way? Thank you, Urara!” (Y/n) stroked the exhausted crow, relieving her of the bag Mitsuri always had her carrying. She straightened the little clover hat on the crow’s head and gave her a bowl of water.
Urara drank up the water with gusto and (Y/n) refilled it, adding a tray of food to go with it. With one last stroke of the bird’s beak, she began to prepare for Mitsuri’s arrival.
It had been a particularly long mission this time around, Mitsuri hadn’t been home in nearly two weeks. (Y/n) was sure she must be exhausted, so she wanted to make this homecoming as special as she could to remind Mitsuri how much she loved her and how happy she was to have her home safe and sound.
She had already spent the last couple days making batch after batch of Sakura mochi in preparation for Mitsuri’s arrival. She was fairly certain she had permanently dyed the palms of her hands a vibrant pink and the process of kneading and shaping the mochi left her arms a bit sore, but to see the look of joy on Mitsuri’s face would surely be worth it. Next, she would make a proper hot meal more nutritious than the sweet treats Mitsuri couldn’t seem to live without.
She prepared savory meats both seared and fried, roasted vegetables seasoned with care, a mountain of sticky rice, a flavorful broth, and more. She was almost finished setting out the feast on the table when she heard Mitsuri calling for her from somewhere near the entrance of their home.
“I’m coming!”
(Y/n) quickly placed the last dishes and teared out of the room, her feet thudded loudly against the wooden floor of the hall and when she made the last turn, she leapt into the air without warning, but Mitsuri caught her all the same.
“There’s my girl! I missed you so much!” Mitsuri declared, kissing and nuzzling (Y/n) while she dangled helplessly in her arms.
“I missed you too, welcome home my mochi!” (Y/n) clung to Mitsuri like a koala in a eucalyptus tree, arms around her neck, legs locked around her hips, it was almost second nature to them at this point.
“Urara left me in the dust!” Mitsuri pouted. “She had my snack sack too!”
“Aww, she just came to tell me you were on your way back so I could get dinner ready in time for your return.”
“You made me dinner?” Mitsuri gasped, as if it was something (Y/n) hadn’t done for her almost daily. “You are too sweet!”
“Speaking of sweet…” (Y/n) teased, twirling one of Mitsuri’s braids around her finger.
Mitsuri gasped again.
“Did you make mochi for me?!”
Before (Y/n) could confirm, Mitsuri was showering her with more kisses.
“You treat me so well! Thank you!”
“You’re welcome!” (Y/n) giggled, trying to escape more ticklish kisses, “Come on, I have everything set up. Better eat it while it’s warm.”
Mitsuri did not need to be told twice. She hiked (Y/n) higher up on her torso and ran full speed down the halls, following the delicious smell as she drew closer to the beautiful meal (Y/n) had prepared.
Mitsuri put (Y/n) down only once she reached the table and promptly sat thigh to thigh beside her.
Mitsuri just had to let (Y/n) know just how much she appreciated and loved each bite, a habit she had no doubt picked up from her dear teacher. Sometimes she would comment on how good a bite looked before she even put it in her mouth, or she would insist (Y/n) eat it instead and be delighted in the simple act of feeding her.
Clean up was fairly easy. There were very few left overs. Mitsuri insisted on doing the dishes, but (Y/n) could see that the burst of energy Mitsuri had upon her arrival home was wearing down. They managed a compromise of Mitsuri washing, while (Y/n) dried and put away.
“Want me to get a bath ready?” (Y/n) asked after putting the last dish away.
“A bath sounds so good.” Mitsuri sighed pleasantly. “Let me help!”
“No, no. You’ve already done plenty. Just relax, you’ve been on the road for days.” (Y/n) insisted, walking towards the bathroom.
Mitsuri followed her, pouting and fiddling with her haori’s sleeves.
“You already made me dinner and helped with the dishes.”
“And I did it happily because I love you. Just as I will happily prepare a hot bath for you, because I love you. Would you prefer a floral or citrus scent for the water?”
“Mmm… something floral sounds relaxing.” Mitsuri decided almost shyly. Her face was distinctly pink from how easily declarations of love seemed to come from (Y/n). She knew she was quite openly affectionate and vocal about her love as well, but having it directed at her made her heart flutter and drum off beat.
While (Y/n) got the bath ready, Mitsuri scrubbed her body at the shower station and washed her hair. When she rinsed off for the final time, (Y/n) called to her, letting her know the bath was ready.
Mitsuri thanked her, sinking into the water so fast she could have been melting. (Y/n) smiled seeing her look so relaxed and turned to take Mitsuri’s discarded clothes to the laundry hamper, but a tugging on the hem of her kimono stopped her from going too far.
“Aren’t you going to come in?” Mitsuri asked.
“I was going to get the laundry ready to wash tomorrow. You relax, honey.”
Mitsuri didn’t let go, “I want to relax with you. I miss you.”
How could anyone say no to a face like that?
“Alright, I’ll be ready in a few minutes.”
Mitsuri let go of (Y/n)’s clothes and clapped happily. Then she rested her arms and head over the edge of the bath, eagerly waiting for (Y/n) to finish scrubbing her body. When (Y/n) walked back to the bath, Mitsuri rose to help her in. The weight of Mitsuri’s muscles being easier to manage in the water, (Y/n) positioned her to sit on her lap and reclined slightly to allow Mitsuri to do the same.
“Is this better?”
“Yes!” Mitsuri declared her position on the matter strongly. She felt like she was going to explode with happiness.
They sat like that for awhile. Mitsuri told (Y/n) more about her missions in the time she had been away and lamented over some of her sore spots from her battles when she stretched herself a little too far.
(Y/n) massaged the knots out of the problem areas without wasting another second. For which Mitsuri was ever so grateful. The Hashira began to sink she was so relaxed. Luckily (Y/n) was there to tell her it was time to get out before she completely fell asleep.
They dried off, put on some warm clothes and got ready for bed. Both were ecstatic to be sleeping in the same bed after nearly two weeks apart. It didn’t take long for them to tangle their limbs together and hum happily over the comfort and warmth they felt together all nice and clean in their comfy futon.
Mitsuri snuggled as close as she could, sweetly kissing whatever skin she came across, breathing in a deep breath of the floral scent they had used in the bath.
“What did I do to deserve you?” She wondered.
“By being your usual sweet and loving self. You have know idea how lucky I feel knowing that I got you first.”
Mitsuri eeped and buried herself in the covers, still all tangled up with her lover, making her laugh.
“It’s true, Mitsu. Don’t hide from the truth!” She tried to wrestle her back into the open air, but Mitsuri was much to strong for that and ended up dragging (Y/n) under the covers with her instead.
“I’m glad too. Very, very glad. I love you.” Mitsuri smiled, once they stopped their play struggle against each other.
“And I love you. More than I can convey.” (Y/n) breathed, more obviously out of breath compared to Mitsuri since she was essentially trying to fight a being of pure muscle.
It didn’t take long after the excitement died down before Mitsuri started dozing off again, and knowing that Mitsuri was with her safe in bed, it didn’t take long for (Y/n) to do the same. As they slept, their hearts thrummed in the same relaxed rhythm. They’re dreams were pleasant, and they didn’t stir again until well into the morning.
When they finally did decide they should get out of bed, Mitsuri made it very clear that she would be the one in charge of making breakfast.

10 Mutuals I'd like to know better
Tagged by @serendipitys-teapot, @lilmissnatcat24 and @westernlarch, thank you all so much! this blog is brand new so I’m flattered I’m on anyone’s radar lol
Last song I listened to: Dusk by Chelsea Wolfe
Favorite content to watch: I’m not a big watcher. I watch let’s plays, I guess. Anything sci-fi and/or character-driven works for me though once I get around to it!
Favorite games: Mass Effect series, Breath of the Wild, Ace Attorney series, Ōkami, the Sims and Spore
Favorite color: a pale, warm pink and cool underwater green
Favorite animals: cats, eagle owls, foxes, do dinosaurs count
Favorite food: sushi, takoyaki, miso duck bowl. bao-zi. there’s a pattern here.
Sweet, spicy, or savory: savory, no contest
Current obsessions: ough i’m sure you can guess
Last book I read: longer ago than i want to admit, Deathless by Catherynne M Valente.
Last thing I googled: "approachable synonym” I’m editing chapter 5 of my unpublished fic in the hopes that when I get to the chapter I’m currently at, I won’t feel so damn stuck
Relationship: single
Fun fact: I love going to concerts and traveling for them! One band I’ve seen like sixty times. That’s an outlier but I can get pretty obsessive about music. I learned Italian for one musician. Not well but my reading comprehension is pretty passable, surprisingly.
So I’ve no idea who to tag here, I think I follow like 15 people on this blog, and I don’t know who’s already done this! So this is less than ten and off the top of my head. No pressure, of course!
@seithr, @that-wildwolf, @callista-curations, @whiskynorocks, @thefloatingstone

Hihi, Rae! For the ice cream ask, I'm curious about: french vanilla, chocolate, cotton candy, pistachio, cookie dough, neapolitan, salted caramel, and chocolate fudge. Thanks!
french vanilla— what’s something you want to tell your followers?
Honestly, if there's something for me to say to everyone following me here on this lil' personal blog it's this: go tell everyone you love that you love them. Go do it right now, for exactly no reason. The people you care about deserve to know they have that love, and offered to them with no trigger or caveat. It wasn't earned or 'remembered', just said in truth.
chocolate— what song is stuck in your head right now?
Reset Rewind by Unlike Pluto. I listened to that one like, as part of a small cycle of songs to power me through that Michael Myers horror fic skeleton from the other day and so it's just... here, hanging out.
cotton candy— do you prefer savory or sweet food more?
Sweets. I love savory stuff, don't get me wrong, but I don't have 'a sweet tooth', I have at least half a jaw of sweet teeth.
pistachio— which do you prefer: breakfast, lunch, or dinner?
Probably dinner. I grew up really bad with my eating habits and it's never really gotten better, and dinner is the only meal I still regularly eat. As for what dinner is, it's literally anything. If I eat it at the end of the day it's dinner now. Pancakes and bacon? Dinner. Turkey sandwich? Dinner. Chili colorado? Dinner. So long as it's the last meal of the day it counts.
cookie dough— do you prefer jewel tones or earth tones?
Jewel tones and I blame my corvid-dragon instincts. I want actual jewels, so jewel tones strike so many chords in me.
neapolitan— do you have a favorite scent? scents that you like in perfume, in candles, and in general?
Look. I cannot overstate how many scents I like. I have 36 body sprays, 5 scented lotions and 7 hand creams. The list of scents I dislike is so much shorter. Light florals are lovely, sweet scents, anything properly fruity is nice.
Off the top of my head of my massive collection from Bath and Body Works here's the first that come to mind: Dark Kiss, Paris Amour, Sapphire Moon, Midnight Pomegranate, Velvet Sugar, Black Cherry Merlot, Dahlia, Sunkissed, Bubble Gum Pop, Tokyo Lotus & Apple Blossom, Golden Magnolia, Plumeria, and Into The Night.
salted caramel— what color and shade would you describe your eyes?
Probably a grey-green. A forest fog.
chocolate fudge— would you prefer a stargazing date or a picnic date?
Both honestly have their own charm, but if I had to chose just one I'm going with stargazing. I've even written a fic around stargazing with a loved one, and the idea seems so sweet. Making up new constellations with each other, ones to weave stories around over the course of your relationship, doesn't that sound perfect?

Hello! I am here for the 500 follower match-up event! First of all, congratulations on 500! You are an amazing blog!
Could I possibly have a Twisted wonderland and Obey Me match-up? If you only do one, you can to the Twisted Wonderland Match-up.
I am a female ISFP-T personality person and I have no ither ways to describe me better. I am certainly NOT a people person. I bond better a little bit with my family but hardly anyone outside of that. My star sign is Aries, but it feels like I'm supposed to be the complete opposite! My favorite season would have to be fall, especially later in the season when I get to bundle up with blankets and have hot chocolate.
I have ginger red hair with grayish blue eyes and slightly freckled. Sometimes I like playing connect the dots with said freckles when j get bored. I love art and painting especially. My hobbies include playing video games, preferably MMORPG games, making tassel blankets and hats (really anything with crafts), swimming and cooking. I prefer savory foods over sweet, give me a good medium well steak any day and I am sold.
I am certainly more of a homebody and really don't like to go out anywhere unless if I really need to, which is really only for work or to buy crickets for my pet leopard gecko. I love reptiles and cats! An odd pair but I love them to bits!
I hope this is enough information! Again, congrats on the 500 followers!!!
(so I'll do your obey me one separately another time, will it be tomorrow? Will it be years from now? Who's to say, these last couple matchups are really hard to put into words 😂 anyways, honorable mentions to Ace, Jade, Kalim, Malleus, Trey, and Idia. I had a lot of ideas for you 😂)
I match you with Leona Kingscholar.
This realization came after I did some research on INFP's. They like to go with the flow, but also keep the people in their life happy, and to date Leona, you really have to be willing to go with the flow. Mans is the original homebody. He's on a whole nother level. I think you'll be alright, as long as you promise to never leave his arms. He just wants to cuddle! 🥺 And while he's not always great at verbal reassurance, he will get better over time, and then nothing will stop him from proclaiming how much he loves you.
He will melt if you make him a blanket. At first he'll pretend he doesn't care, but then you notice it's the only blanket he uses anymore. If you point this out, his walls will crumble quickly, and he'll ask for a second one. (Idk how he feels about hats, but you should make matching ones for the both of you, it'll be so cute.)
You love cats? Good, herbivore, then give him all the love you can. If you absolutely must bring up reptiles, make sure it's tiny pets, not a certain lizard who shall remain nameless.
Meat. Need I say more?
He'll try some video games with you. He's a secret techie as we could see from his sound booth skills in book five, so he's up to play games with you. But don't expect him to go easy on you! Wait....can you explain the controls one more time? Your lap was super comfortable and he fell asleep. He knows you beat the game while he was asleep, but that's besides the point!
You wouldn't have expected Leona Kingscholar to be a proud boyfriend. You wouldn't expect him to be a proud anything. But when you went to meet his family for the first time, you noticed some very familiar art hanging around the castle, as well as a rather large collection in his room.
"Wait!" You said, it suddenly striking you.
He raised a single eyebrow and gestured for you to continue. You gave him a sly grin.
"The paintings around here are very familiar," you giggled.
"I think you're seeing things, herbivore," he said lowly, but hey, nothing ventured nothing gained, right?
"No, see what I think is," you grinned, and stood as tall as you could, so that you were up in his face, "that a certain boyfriend of mine, keeps asking me to paint him stuff, and then he hangs it up in his room, and home for everyone to see."
He blinked, and then got his own grin on his face.
"So what if that's the truth? What if this boyfriend really wanted to show off how talented his girlfriend is? What would you do then?"
Aaaaaaaaand, now you were flustered. Good going Leona. He took advantage of your confusion and shock at him being so forthcoming, to quickly kiss the tip of your nose.
"Does my beautiful girlfriend think she can paint me some more pictures?" He said with mock sweetness, and you could only nod.
He'll pay you back with warm snuggles, and soft vibes, never you fear. Leona is a man of honor, who always repays a debt. Also, when you hand him your newest masterpiece, just be aware he is not purring, so don't even ask!

Getting to Know You
(Or for some of us, a check-in on the status quo!) Tagged by @ohtobealady -- thank you darling wifey! <3
Rules: Tag 10 people you want to know better!
Favorite time of the year:
Traditionally I grow more powerful feel more like myself in autumn, but the past couple of years I have a new appreciation for spring. Winter comes close just because frankly it's more comfortable down here.
Comfort foods:
Can't go wrong with a warm meat in gravy with a starch: pasta, stews, savory pies, risotto (in a way), (lately) curries... But I also have a sweet tooth so pastries and cobblers are also up there. At a simpler level, I enjoy warm buttered bread with honey.
Do you collect anything?
I'm a collector by nature and have been my whole life, probably a trait from my mother. My collections are currently tempered by space (and not wanting to inundate the house I share with my Darling Viking more than I already have!) and money, but a few: Japanese porcelain, antique Blue Willow china, a specific pattern of Noritake Morimura, gemstones and minerals, fossils and other natural specimens (responsibly-sourced when not personally found) such as feathers, scarves, perfumes, antiques in general...
Favorite drink?
Probably very boring but I really do love water. I'm also very partial, currently, to my extra-hot caramel macchiato.
Favorite music artists:
I tend to gravitate more toward songs than individual artists, but some coincidental favorites to that end: Thomas Newman, Breaking Benjamin, The Goo Goo Dolls, Ludivico Einaudi, Simon & Garkfunkel, Hiroyuki Sawano, Linkin Park, Michelle Branch, Sash!, Yoko Kanno...
Current favorite songs:
'Midnight Moon' by Eydís Evensen ft. GDRN thanks to a concert by the pianist linked by @karrova; 'Age of Men' by Jo Wandrini because it gives me certain shippy feelz for my novel; 'Firedancer' by Rúnfell because I'm on a Valheim kick recently and it helps keep me motivated for my latest build project; 'Notorious' by Bonnie Grace for more novel work; and 'Dead Man Walking' by Jelly Roll for an added surprise, simply because it's catchy. I should also add that I'm really into Japanese-themed lo-fi lately because it helps me concentrate on my state projects.
Favorite fics:
I'll admit I don't really read much fic presently for various reasons, with the exception of my inherent bias toward @ohtobealady's ouvre, but I have immense respect for all the tireless work everyone in the Downton fandom does. I may be just a satellite to that dreamworld but y'all are amazing from out here.
I'm tagging: @aryasnow, @yelena-belxva, @elegant-moonlight, @plumcoloredblazer, @of-dahlias-gloom, @karrova, @malglories, @oftwodarkmoons, @webedragons, @insomniarama But only if you feel like it, lovelies!

Baroness' General Writing Tips, Part II
Part I Here's Part II of my general writing tips I've started to compile of little (and big) things I've learnt over the 20+ years I've been compulsively recreationally putting one word in front of the other; I hope it's helpful or at least reassuring!
While much of this is slanted toward fiction, a lot of it applies to nonfiction as well. I've also gone for more general tips this go round. You're welcome to pick my brain about specific topics and I'll do my best to answer.
Again, the key thing to remember is that this is what I have personally found helpful; they may have more or less degrees of usefulness or relevance to you personally, but they can still serve as starting points.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
(12) Remember that your goal is a read-worthy narrative, not a product.
Not everything you write has to be published to be considered valid. Hell, not everything you write has to see the light of day. Your writing is for you. IMO it verges on a spiritual need and whatever actualization of it brings you joy is good and right. Don't let capitalism fool you into thinking all that matters is profitability and never let any kind of numbers dictate your self-worth or smother your creative spark.
(13) Embrace whatever keeps the flow going.
Placeholders are your friends. Write the ending first or start in the middle. Write a scene as a skeletal script to fill in later. Whatever gets the job done.
(14) If you need an outline, make one. If you don't, don't...
There's a lot of documented discussion about 'types' of writer -- you may hear terms like 'gardener' versus 'architect' or the like. Don't feel like you have to fall into one category only or remain the same for the rest of your life. You may find it helpful to do in-depth planning before you even get started, or you may prefer to wing it.
I also find that different projects require different approaches, and that actually the same project can require different approaches at different stages of development. The key thing is that your skills are going to carry over regardless the more you practice them.
(15) ...but keep notes for longer projects.
However, I heartily recommend keeping notes in some shape or form -- the more organized the better -- to help with consistency in longer projects. This will save you time and frustration, trust me.
(16) Keep a writing journal/workbook.
Writing is a mental muscle and part of exercising it is in changing how you process the world. Having a journal or workbook of some kind to jot down ideas for titles, character names, new projects, scene or dialogue snippets, and so on helps your brain learn to transform raw inspiration into new narrative, making it easier to get to work when you have time to sit down and actually write.
And no, you don't need fancy writing software or expensive notebooks. There is no 'doing this properly'. If it brings you joy to have an exceedingly organized writing journal bound in Italian leather, great, as long as you don't spend more time color-coding than you do writing.
(17) Find first readers you trust...
Not everyone has access to a writing group, but at some point you will need to find your first reader. Although I recommend finding one or two people to read your first draft, they can come in at the second, third, or final draft.
At some point you've stared at the project too long and you will be biased, no matter how trained of an editor you are. Fresh eyes will help spot both big plot holes and tiny typos. Find people you trust to give you balanced criticism, rather than just fluff your feathers.
(18) ...but limit access to drafts.
Too many cooks spoil the broth. If you involve too many readers at the drafting stage, you risk losing your own instincts or saturating the work trying to make everyone happy. It can simply lengthen the writing process unnecessarily, too.
Also, remember that some of these early-stage first readers may have been better suited as finished-work first readers; a first draft may put them off from reading the end result, however much it's changed and however much they love you. Curbing your enthusiasm now may yield greater rewards later, in other words.
(19) Remember to look after your physical wellbeing.
It's tempting to romanticize the writer who shuts themselves away in an attic for a week and doesn't eat or sleep until they emerge with a polished draft -- don't do it. Look after your posture, eyes, hungers, and thirsts. Get sleep. Move around frequently. Go outside. Check in with loved ones.
(20) Self knowledge is power...
Find what environment facilitates your best work. For me it's typically isolation, appropriate music, and evenings. Also note this may differ between when you want to write and when you need to edit. Equally, find what inhibits you. For me I know I can't read sink my teeth into a TV series or novel in the same genre and write original copy at the same time. I also find it hard to concentrate when I have paid projects on the books or my house needs cleaning.
(21) ...but accept that part of learning the discipline is being able to work in imperfect conditions.
See #2. By the time you found the right music for that one scene, you could have written the damn scene and half of the next. Often, we will never have enough time or the right time. Learn to work with what you have.
(22) "Write what you know" is generally bullshit...

My #1 post of 2022
Baroness' General Writing Tips, Part I
I decided to finally start compiling little (and big) things I've learnt over the 20+ years I've been compulsively recreationally putting one word in front of the other; I hope it's helpful or at least reassuring!
While much of this is slanted toward fiction, a lot of it applies to nonfiction as well. I've also gone for more general tips this go round. You're welcome to pick my brain about specific topics and I'll do my best to answer.
The key thing to remember is that this is what I have personally found helpful; they may have more or less degrees of usefulness or relevance to you personally, but they can still serve as starting points. Part II
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
(1) Your method is your method...
This goes for whether you plan ahead or just roll with it, but also things like when/where you write.
(2) ...but discipline and practice will help you do the heavy lifting.
At some point the difference in your personal skill plateaus is down to how often you write regardless of your mood, knowledge of where it's going, or perceived skill. Persistence will be your strongest ally during the inevitable droughts and valleys of self-doubt.
(3) Reading is good and helpful...
Read widely, read deep. Learn from the successes and mistakes of others. Learn what you want to emulate and what you want to avoid. Broaden your perspective, take note of different techniques, build your knowledge base. Train your discernment. Likewise, back-reading your own material to see where you left off can be useful if you struggle with consistency / sticking to the point. (4) ...but don't let it distract or saturate. Sometimes, back-reading your own work can scratch the itch you had to work on something and you end up not writing new material. This can happen with others' work in a related genre/field -- it scratches the itch you had for that type of content, or conversely you begin unhelpful comparisons between their work and yours.
Most of all, you will need to learn the difference between being inspired by something and mimicking it to the point of plagiarism.
(5) Learn to take a break, not to quit. If you feel a piece truly isn't working, don't let your first response be to give up on it. Put it away for a while and come back to it, then maybe try, for example, a different angle or point of view. (6) Light immersion in related media helps with burnout while still being useful. Sometimes writing isn't going to be the most helpful thing to do. You will always need to replenish your creative batteries, but sometimes this can feel like avoidance or laziness -- it isn't. Browse concept art. Sketch. Work on some worldbuilding that'll never make it in. Visit a museum. Listen to an audiobook in your genre. Watch a documentary on the same topic.
(7) Your first draft is just that -- a draft. Be open-minded and forgiving, and embrace the process. The most important thing in this stage is to get content on the page, because you can't do anything without it. Trust your gut and let the words flow how they want.
(8) There is immense opportunity in the editing process... Often the best breakthroughs come through asking questions during your editing. The answers can forge new links or callbacks, or open up new avenues for plot, or enrich what's already there. Editing isn't pass/fail -- it's a conversation. (9) ...but don't be a forever-editor. Perfectionism is the enemy. Nothing will ever be perfect to you -- accept that sooner rather than later -- but it will be perfect to someone out there. Yet they'll never see it if you don't let the project out into the world. (10) Read it aloud. No matter your experience, this will inevitably catch clunky sentences, weak pacing, and even sub-par semantics. It's very important to do this with dialogue so that it sounds natural.
(11) Accept you belong in the writerly ecosystem just as you are.
There's three aspects to this: first, that everyone feels like an imposter at some point and probably will in the future, regardless of their experience or how much they have published. Second, that there are no new ideas, but your telling will always be new. And third, that you remain a writer if you haven't written for years or struggle to jot down a sentence a week just as much as if you churn out a book a year. Don't let these things hold you back.

Getting to know You Ask Game
Tagged by @a-witch-named-crow - thank you so much! I've never gotten tagged in one of these before!
Rules: Answer the questions and tag nine people you want to know better.
Favorite Color: Green. But not just Green... The color of moss after months of steady rain. The color of THRIVING Life.
Currently Reading: I am currently between books. I was Thinking about reading this anthropological deconstruction of the Northern European Bear Cult that pre-dated the Viking era, but I am not sure I have the bandwidth. Maybe I will read something silly next. I know there are multiple "Adventures of Ms. Pollifax" books, and if you've not read one, go Look her up. They are novels about an old widow who becomes a successful spy.
Last Song: Not sure. What I am sure is that there is a Non-zero chance that it was "Show Yourself" from the Frozen II soundtrack. Otherwise it was some random crappy country song that was on in the carpool I was riding with out to the place where we went hiking yesterday. Not sure that counts for these purposes.
Last Series: Locke and Key, Season Three. They rounded out the cosmology, tied up the loose ends, and threw away the key. At least it got an ending... Many Netflix Series aren't so lucky. (squints in Netflix's general direction with consternation for having failed to mention whether or not they will Bother with more Sandman) I have Also recently concluded watching "The Orville" and if Hulu doesn't make more of that I may go burn something down. Guilty Pleasure, and series still in progress, "Gargoyles". They never let me watch as a kid, and now no one can stop me. Some of it is AWFUL. (should have remained in the 90's) Some of it is surprisingly well done for a Kid's show of that era... (lots of crazy pagan magic stuff in there, no wonder I adored my sneak peeks as a kid)
Last Movie: Soul. Yes. Disney. I watch by myself in my basement where no one else is harmed by this destructive habit.
Sweet/Savory/Spicy: I Love Flavors. It is Impossible to innumerate them all. Much shorter list of things I hate: Steamed Artichoke Leaf, Sea Urchin Sushi, and Kababoli Relish. These foods, in my opinion, taste like wet cardboard, the layer of fish poop at the bottom of the rocks in a dirty fish tank, and vomit, respectively. I felt very seen when they talked about the combinations of flavors that created synergistic enhancement in Ratatouille.
Currently Working On: Therapy and the development of skills involving coping with anxiety and managing trauma while moving toward successful task management and task conflict tolerance in relationships and at work. This blog. Learning about Foraging. Getting my Master Sergeant Stripe. A Gardening Project 7 years in the making. I've honestly written a lot of things... But most of them have involved the voices in my head, and I'm pretty sure my therapist is dead set against this as maladaptive daydreaming, and does not consider it a legitimate coping skill. I am not so sure. At very least, I think abandoning it entirely feels like leaving a lot of creativity on the table. I will still likely eventually end up writing one of the ideas, if I can convince myself they are unique enough. The Tree and Door stories seemed pretty solid to me... maybe I will get those together one day. At least, if nothing else, I am pretty sure it would make a Rad D&D game.
Tagging: @solostinmysea @sickened-things
Sorry, I don't really know very many people here that might answer a silly thing like this. Most of the people I follow are kind of doing their own thing and don't interact with others personally...

YEAH YEAH sometimes if things are way too sweet they end up having like a really bad effect on me i end up feeling so weird... thats why i always end up mostly going for savory or spicy foods instead of sweets (also because most sweets i like are expensive to acquire. cruel cruel world we live in truly)
YEAH YEAH KAZUI AND MIKOTO! they are also two of my most me irls ever like. yeah. AND YES 3 TIMES! once as queer platonic f/o and two as romantic f/o hehe. FEEL FREE TO REBLOG EVERYTHING YOU WANT we will mostly be in most of those reblogs and that will be oh so awesome

AND YEAH WE SHARE A LOT OF MUTUALS SO!!! INDEED!!! MUTUAL CIRCLE!!! i think im doing like an extremely good job at Not talking the way i mostly talk soooo i think it will be way too hard for you to figure out specially considering how complicated our status as mutuals is HEJSHSJHS even then dont you grow desperate about figuring out my identity i just Know i will get bored and reveal myself sooner rather than later. im impatient like that HDJSHSJHS and im also curious about how you will react to the revelation (not that its something too mind blowing though just. something you might Not expect y'know)

About Me
Tumblr media
A couple of days ago while sitting down in my North Philly apartment bored and scrolling through FoodTok (food TikTok), I began to crave fried plantains, so I decided to walk over to my corner store. Once there I dug through the pile of plantains to find the one that was the mushiest and smelled the sweetest. I got home and put on some songs from my childhood such as those from Marco Antonio Solis, and as I sang I sliced the plantains, fried them, and sat down, but it felt like my meal was missing something. I got up and looked into my fridge and saw there were leftover refried beans, fresh cheese (queso fresco), and cream (crema), that's it! I heated up my beans drizzled them with crema and sprinkled queso fresco and then I dipped my plantains. This mixture of sweet, creamy, and savory goodness was the perfect bite! That bite was warmth, I felt I was back in Guatemala.
I am Guatemalan-American and have lived in Philly my whole life, except for the couple of years I lived in La Union, Zacapa, Guatemala. Ever since coming back over a decade ago, I can't help but miss being there. I became so accustomed to being surrounded by my large family and the huge colorful forests, I miss the food and going to the forest to chop down trees (as permitted) to bring back wood so my grandma could fire up her brick oven ( she rejected the use of the gas oven she was gifted). I would just watch her cook in amazement for hours (and try to help). This is where my love for food began, and the way that bite before made me feel is what made me create this blog. I want to find places here to make me feel like I am home.
I try to find ways to feel connected and besides speaking Spanish, food has played an important role. I follow my grandma's tips and tricks such as when I pick plantains. I remember she would pick the mushy and sweet smelling ones, so I do too, she would fry them, so I do too, and then take them out with her bare hands and say: "One day you will be able to touch the heat like me", (I'm still not there), and she would serve refried beans, add queso fresco and crema, so I do too.
I go to Guatemalan shops, I use spices such as dried chiles and annatto, and I go out to Guatemalan restaurants to find those Guate flavors in Philly. This blog will serve as a way to connect my two worlds and explore ways in which Guatemala is present in Philly. Through this blog, I hope to show others what Chapinos and our cuisine can bring to the table (metaphorically and literally).

Recap on Crash Course in Romance episode 3
Tumblr media
Crash Course in Romance episode 3 being with our heroine finally realizing that the mobile thief, the handsome customer, and her daughter's instructor are the same person. She doesn't need to worry, though, since that said instructor is just as anxious. It isn't every day that one gets into all these adventures with a student's parent. Also, with scary people writing hateful comments against him, our instructor can't afford to add anyone else to that list. Picking up where we left off, out of nowhere, metal pellets are shot, smashing the glass and getting everyone on the floor from the shock. After that, Chi-yeol and Haeng-soon head to the police station to make a report, but it turns into another bickering session when Haeng-soon mentions the mobile phone incident. Also, we get a typical drama land scene of the police officer not recognizing Chi-yeol, while the latter claims to be a celebrity with many rivals, one of whom could be the culprit. ALSO READ: Crash Course in Romance episode 1 recap: The love-hate relationships are back!
Crash Course in Romance episode 3: Getting to know each other's true identity
Scared stiff, Chi-yeol spends the night tossing and turning while thinking about the glass-smashing incident. Concluding that the culprit must have been in a moving car, Chi-yeol plans to go back and check the CCTVs there, but unfortunately, there are none. Instead, he runs into the now "passionate" mother, Haeng-soon, rushing to the academy to book a seat for Hae-yi. Chi-yeol follows her in his car, and in a typical drama land scene, he splashes water on her. Though inadvertently, Hae-soon gets her payback when Chi-yeol drops by just as she empties the water bucket and splashes him with water. Following that is a hilarious moment with Jae-woo reluctant to lend "his most expensive garment" to Chi-yeol, who is set against not changing his clothes, and Haeng-soon trying to convince him to put on Jae-woo's T-shirt while she tries to dry up his clothes. Hae-yi arrives at that very moment, and finally, our soon-to-be couple realizes the parent-instructor relationship they are entangled in. For sure, both are too shocked to utter a word. The situation can't get more awkward, with Haeng-soon getting worried her daughter's instructor, formerly the mobile thief, will pick on Hae-yi, and Chi-yeol worried she might badmouth him on the mother's blog. What if she sues him or, even worse, if she starts a fistfight with him? After all, she is an ex-national team athlete, so it won't be easy to win against her? Funnily enough. Haeng-soon prepares a lunch box full of savory food for Chi-yeol, and they both engage in who can bow deeper competition while apologizing for their previous deeds. Unluckily, the academy director schedules a dinner meeting with Chi-yeol that day, and he won't even get to touch the food there. Hence, the assistants enjoy the delicious food by themselves. ALSO READ: Crash Course in Romance episode 2 recap: a past connection
Crash Course in Romance episode 3: Preparing for the Med School Program
Over dinner, the director suggests they move up the schedule for the Med School Program. To my surprise, all the tutors oppose, except for Chi-yeol, who takes advantage of the situation to get the specific model of enamel blackboards he kept asking for long ago. Purchasing those blackboards might be a hassle for the director, still moving up the schedule isn't a piece of cake either. On his way out, Chi-yeol runs into some old friends who act nice to his face and badmouth him behind his back when he takes a call. They don't see him as a friend but as a wallet to pick the tab and leave but not before ordering them more beef. Infuriating. Although he seems cold on the outside, Chi-yeol gets hurt by their words, and it gets even worse when he overhears how happy his assistants are that he didn't join them for dinner. I am not fond of Chi-yeol's harsh comments, but badmouthing someone behind their back is also cruel. For them, Chi-yeol comes across as someone full of himself, but there is more to it than meets the eye. After all, he might be afraid of getting closer to people and not that he doesn't want to. The next day, Chi-yeol sends Haeng-soon some gifts to thank her for the food. He also sends her the mobile phone, and with it comes a sincere apology note this time. That night, Haeng-soon keeps waiting for Chi-yeol to show up at the store, but when it gets late, Haeng-soon tries to call him. However, Dong-hee picks up, telling her that Chi-yeol is pulling an all-nighter preparing for the level test exam. Hearing they might only get bread for dinner, Haeng-soon prepares some food and goes to drop it off. B But instead of a touched Chi-yeol, Haeng-soon encounters a rude one who yells at Dong-hee for allowing a "parent" inside their office. Will he take responsibility if the exam questions get leaked? Despite Haeng-soon's desperate attempts for Chi-yeol to accept the food, he doesn't budge. Instead, he gets ruder. Understandably mad over Chi-yeol's rudeness, Haeng-soon spends the night badmouthing him while trying to finish the food so it doesn't go bad.

Crash Course in Romance episode 3: Our soon-to-be-couple getting closer in the most hilarious way
It is the level exam day, but the cars are bumper to bumper. Hence, Chi-yeol resolves to run it out to the academy. Luckily, he runs into Haeng-soon, who, despite his rudeness the day before, offers to give him a ride on her bike, so he makes it on time. The exam is over, and an answer sheet of a particular student, none other than Hae-yi, stands out for Chi-yeol. Although one question was too hard to solve for almost all the students, her solving skills caught his attention. The results are out, and Hae-yi is accepted to the seven-student Med School Program. Along with Hae-you are her best friend, Lee Seon-jae, and the bratty Bang Soo-ah, who is clearly jealous of Hae-yi's success. I am so glad Hae-yi took Haeng-soon's advice and got enrolled. It was noticeable she wanted to take the test, but she needed to avoid adding another financial burden on Haeng-soon. Hearing that good news, Haeng-soon is now thrilled to bits, just like when they barely made it to the semi-finals but then went on to the finals. That night she drinks like a fish, but with that comes a cute drunken Haeng-soon who keeps showering everyone with "kisses," It doesn't help the situation at all that she runs into Chi-yeol in that state. We end the episode with Haeng-soon lifting Chi-yeol up, and they both fall to the ground, and we are left to imagine what happens next. I like they went by the slow burn/hate-to-love relationship. Both Haeng-soon and Chi-yeol have more in common than they are aware of. They are both in need of some affection to brighten their life up. Haeng-soon may have a small family loving her, but she also needs someone to lean on, just like our lonely top instructor.
