Hi there! How are you doing? I have a bit of a specific request, so if you feel like it’s too much, feel free to decline (:
May I please request a Fyodor x Male! Reader fluff fic? The reader is a scientist and for a particular experiment, he needs to map out the bones of the human body because the experiment calls for extremely precise work and he doesn’t want to hurt himself. So! Because his boyfriend is Fyodor ‘needs-to-remember-to-eat’ Dostoevsky, he decides to use Fyodor as his mapping system so when he does perform his experiment later on, he can do so without to risk of injury.
Here's where the fluff comes in (coming from an ex-med student who’s had to do this XD). Reader has to mark the bones on Fyodor’s body with a marker in order to see properly. As you can imagine, having a marker dragged across places where your nerves collect is ticklish as hell XD. So it turns into a battle of Fyodor trying not to giggle and move away from the marker while a very very mused reader tries to complete the bone map. Sooner or later the mapping is forgotten and the reader just tickles Fyodor to pieces (and perhaps writes a few teasing words on him) ‘in the same of science’. I speak from experience here, it’s the single most flustering thing in the history of ever.
If you feel you cannot do this, don’t stress yourself, it’s all cool. You can decline the request or alter the plot. Whatever’s easier for you ^^. Have a nice day!
“'Till Your Bones Feel Embarrassed From all The Attention ♡” Fyodor Dostoevsky x Male!Reader ੈ✩‧₊˚
Warnings; Soft/Silly Fyodor, only proofread to an extent
Description; Reader is a scientist creating a map of the human body, and his boyfriend agrees to help him. When reader starts tracing his bones though, he can't keep himself calm.
Tumblr media
A/n; BYE THIS IS THE CUTEST THING IN THE ENTIRE WORLD I saw this during my gym class and I got so excited ajsjfjej im sorry if any of this is incorrect, I'll change it if need be! I don't know all that much about anatomy and bones and stuff 😞
ೃ⁀➷
For a particular experiment you were going to perform, you would need a bone map. You thought it would be a little awkward to ask one of your work peers to use their body for refrence, and no one was in the immediate area with you, so your conclusion was go home and ask your boyfriend to be your subject! After work, ofcourse. You sat on the thought for a while, occasionally having second thoughts, but at the same time what's the harm? What reason could he have to deny you? None.
So, you drove home confidently, entering the house with a smile and hanging your jacket. "Fyodor! I'm home!" You called out to him, walking through the house. Just as you reached for the handle of your bedroom door, he opened it. "Welcome home." He greets with a familiar soft smile, lifting your chin to pull you into a kiss. You accepted it with open arms and brushed your fingers through some of his hair. You pulled away after a moment, then interlocked your fingers with his. "Can i ask you a favor?" You questioned, tilting your head a bit as you observed his beautiful face. He hummed with a small nod, one of his hands on the small of your back. "Can I trace your bones through your skin?" He raised an eyebrow. "What for?"
"An experiment, I would do it to myself but that would be really difficult and probably hurt. And I'm not gonna ask that of my coworkers." You say, your eyes averting. "Which is exactly why you should let me do it to you. It won't hurt." You say, giving him the most reassuring smile you can muster. He blinks before talking. "Alright, if it's for you I suppose I don't mind." You smile and grab his hand, leading him to the living room. You grab a black marker from the kitchen quickly before returning to you boyfriend who was sitting cross legged on the floor, his ushanka on the nearby coffee table. You sit on your knees next to him, putting the marker down and starting to unbutton his shirt. Once it's completely undone, you toss it onto the coffee table as well. Uncapping the marker, you softly push Fyodor onto his back to lay down, a chill running down his spine as his skin hits the hardwood floor.
"Sorry, Fedya, I'll try to make it as quick as possible." He shakes his head as you bring the tip of the marker to his shoulder. "It's fine, it's for a good purpose, is it not?" He replies. Your legs are on either side of his waist as you straddle him, leaned in for as much precision as possible while one of his hands rests on your thigh. As you drag the felt tip along his skin, he deeply inhales, trying to suppress his giggles. His eyes are closed and his cheeks are tinted red while the ink stains his skin. The further down his chest you go, the clearer it becomes that your boyfriend is a little ticklish. You can't help but grin as you watch his body instinctively try to squirm away from the marker. You go to trace over his ribs and his back arches a little, the soft sound of his snickers make you grin and hold him down by pressing on his belly gently.
"Hey, you can't keep squirming like that! You're only makin' things harder for yourself." You say with a smirk, continuing to press the marker against his skin, drawing the curves of his ribs while his legs tense up with every movement. At some point, his head is thrown back while he tries to not violently shake with laughter. Seeing Fyodor in a silly and more vulnerable light warmed your heart, you truly felt lucky to get this side of him. His face was pretty red when he looked back up at you, seemingly having tears stuck to his eyelashes in suck a beautiful way. You assessed your work with your hands on your hips and nodded. You lifted yourself off of his lap a little and he seemed to have a bit of relief on his face.
"W-We're done, moya lyubov?" He asked while catching his breath. You shook your head, smirking as you twirled your finger in a circle. "No, you gotta turn over so I can do your back; I don't know how quick this marker dries though.." you say, raising an eyebrow and pressing one finger to a line and lifting it, smiling at the lack of transfered ink. "Alright, go on." You say, waiting for him to roll over. He does, resting his head on his folded arms with a small exhale. You return to your spot and push his hair to the side while tracing the top bones in his spine. He immediately inhales harshly and bites his lip, once again attempting to ignore his ticklishness. You notice and grin, deciding to mess around a little to see his giggly side a bit more. You wrote out 'nerd' before his voice finally broke through his giggles. "I don't think that's the shape of my spine, my dear." He says, trying to look at you over his shoulder.
You give him a look of faux confusion, tilting your head and looking at the word. "Hmm...no, no I think that is, actually." Your nose scrunches up in a snicker. Fyodor can't help but smile ever so slightly. "What does it say that makes it so funny?" He questions, propping himself up at his elbows. "It says beautiful." You say, a Cheshire cat-like look on your pretty face. "I can tell you're lying, myshk-ah!" He's cut off by the marker again, his arms outstretching. His forehead is pressed against the floor while his entire body gently quakes with giggles under his breath. His fist pounds the ground quietly once or twice before you reach the middle of the bone structure.
"Is it really that ticklish?" You ask, laughing to yourself. He can only nod. "I think my Fyodor is just a bit dramatic." You say, putting the marker down and starting to tickle his sides. His breath audibly hitches and he tries to scrunch up his body to crawl away, only to no avail. "This was supposed to be for a science experiment! You're getting quite off task." He says through his very rare fit of laughter. Even the softest stroke to his lower back would make his entire body jerk, and it made you smile. He had managed to roll over, and tried to get your hands away from him, but he's not the strongest when it comes to his upper body, so ultimately you got him pinned back down. Through the fit of giggles, you found yourself having such a good time with your lover. It was very rare that something like this happened, but you both never minded it when it did.
Once you calmed down a bit, you peppered feather-soft kisses along Fyodors shoulders, having almost completely forgotten about the mapping. He quietly hummed, running a hand up and down your back. You had made your way to your bedroom and cuddled up next to him while he read a book. You watch his eyes scan the lines of text, your own occasionally reading some paragraphs or sentences. "Thank you fedya, your contributions so science will go a very long way." You say proudly, kissing his cheek. He quietly chuckles and nods. "I'm sure it will, Moya Lyubov. You're very smart after all. I trust that you'll put my utter suffering to good use." He says with a small smirk. "I was right, my Fyodor is very dramatic." You say with a laugh and roll your eyes. He just smiles and continues his reading as you rest your head on his shoulder, sleepily reading along with him.

I’m literally soo devoted to krulu idk what it is he just draws me. i think i would be part of a cult for him if he was real. anyways what are some of the traits admin gains from being his vessel? do they get physical marks or is it just special powers like enhanced strength for example?
Krulu's manifestation in you isn't fixed, it can be something as simple as an "off vibe" to visible mutations and disfigurement. But, listing off some general factors-
Physical mutations
Physically speaking, Krulu can and oftentimes override the left side of your face, his two slitted eyes remaining where your left one was. He does it to study things more closely, or to let someone know he's present;
In a similar vein, your mouth can also be altered to resemble his more closely, facilitating direct speech through your body;
The more you're physically mutated for the higher's convenience, the more black veined protrusions will appear along your body, protruding with varying degrees of intensity, to the point where your feet and hands may become darker, digits elongating;
Both you and Krulu can manifest, from your figure, pairs of his arms. For whatever purpose really. As Admin, you likely use only two at once, as it quickly becomes too many limbs for your brain to coherently pilote at once. But Krulu can use all six of his arms on you, or even more;
Similarly, his tail can also be manifested for a variety of purposes, though it's quite long and disproportionate on you, usually;
On a number of occasions, you've been given the privilege of sporting a manifestation of Krulu's male anatomy on your pelvis. Though this isn't something you can summon at will, permission is required first.
"Abilities"
It's no wonder you have increased strength, is it? You're also noticeably heavier than you should be, but that fluctuates. Generally, this increase in strength is something easy to control, activated in choice moments;
Since your body has been tinkered with very thoroughly, you're also extremely durable for a human. Meaning a stab to the stomach isn't going to do you in, nor will being set on fire or tossed into the bottom of an ocean to drown. Of course, you still feel a lot of pain, but you're not dying anytime soon, not even if a bullet flies right between your eyes;
Inflicting fear and pressure upon others is something extremely easy for you to do, given Krulu's aura always shines a little through you, no matter how well either one of you attempts to mask it. People will simply be intimidated by you, inexplicably afraid, which, in turn, makes them a lot more cooperative;
The sexual rejection response. Whenever Krulu doesn't want anyone touching what's his, he makes it so whoever attempts to penetrate your orifices is met with rows of jagged teeth ready to snap and tear at any offending intruders. Your insides will also clench to nearly impenetrable states, though thankfully painlessly;
In a complete 180, you've been modified to welcome partners who are much bigger than humans. This was done entirely for his pleasure, but that doesn't mean it doesn't come in handy when the two of you pursue someone else.
Less amazing aspects
You go through his ruts. Enough said;
You may still occasionally experience the side-effects of trauma inflicted upon Krulu, due to all the time they spent in the Null. This means that you may have fits on unquenchable hunger as if you've been starving for ages and your stomach is a bottomless pit, usually ending in you bent over, puking your guts out. Alternatively, it can also manifest as hyper-aggressive states and a desire to hide somewhere utterly quiet and suffocatingly dark;
Mental tangling. Sometimes, when either one of you or both are having overactive episodes, your individual thoughts may "leak" onto the other's conscious and begin gradually taking over more and more space, making one element "recess". These episodes are bothersome and can escalate to a point where some time is required to stabilize them.
I'm sure I'm missing some things, but this is what jumps to mind.

finding out her husband is pregnant hcs ; grelle
Tumblr media
requested by ; anonymous (26/05/23)
fandom(s) ; black butler
fandom masterlist(s) ; hub | specific
character(s) ; grelle sutcliffe
outline ; “Can I have Grell finding out that their afab Tans masc husband is pregnant? And how they find ways to make the pregnancy less dysphoric ?”
warning(s) ; references to dysphoria, brief references to transphobia, descriptions of pregnancy and pregnancy related stuff
note ; this takes place in a modern au with a human!grelle as i’m not sure if shinigami can canonically even reproduce — also this takes place in the uk (obviously) so they don’t need to worry about medical costs (nhs — woop woop)
you’d been feeling extremely unwell for days and grelle had to pretty much force you to go to the hospital after the millionth ‘it’s probably just something that i ate’
and after a few dozen tests the staff were pretty damn certain about the result and the both of you just about fainted
you weren’t trying for a kid, you were both using birth control, and you were in no way prepared to deal with the trauma of being reminded of your anatomy for nine months straight
so you went home and you sat down together and talked
it was a long discussion where you spoke about all of the options you had at your disposal, what you wanted to do and how she could help you with what you wanted
she was absolute insistent that it was your decision to make and that the discussion was only happening so that she could create a game plan to help you with whatever you chose
you had several of those long discussions, actually, over the course of a work week as you thoroughly weighed out your options and consulted your gp and spoke to a therapist you’d been putting off going to
and in the end you made the decision that you wanted to keep the pregnancy, telling grelle that same day and the two of you started to work on a plan to help you deal with what was going to happen
grelle, of course, was spearheading the operation and fighting anyone who tried to stall her in getting whatever you needed or wanted
she insisted that it was her duty as a wife to take care of her husband, and she was doing a damn good job of it
she got you a prescription for some medication to help with morning sickness and made sure to keep a good stock of pain medication in case you started to swell or feel achy as the pregnancy progressed
she makes sure that the fridge is stocked with your favourite foods or current cravings and will immediately get rid of anything that smells too strong and makes you feel ill
buys you lots of baggy clothing early on — large men’s jumpers and shirts and jackets that hide your bump and don’t have the same feminine energy that typical maternity clothing tends to have
she comforts you when you realise that you can no longer keep up with your hrt due to the pregnancy, always there with a warm hug and comforting words and genuine advice to help you from back before she was able to start her hrt
fetches you anything you need — whether that’s food, drink, a hot water bottle, an ice pack, your phone, just anything you want
when your bump gets too heavy she’ll hold it up from behind, letting you lean back against her as she takes on the weight for a short while
she has gotten into several physical alterations with people who refer to you with feminine terminology and isn’t shy about berating people who misgender her ‘darling husband’
she makes sure that you never miss a checkup and if you’re too dysphoric to look at anything but the screen, then she’ll help cover it from your view during the ultrasounds
decorating the nursery was a two person job but it was great fun — and you thankfully managed to complete it early enough in your pregnancy that you weren’t showing yet, meaning you were able to play a much more active part in the process
she changed your contact name in her phone to ‘seahorse hubby’ as a joke in the first trimester and you both found it way funnier than it was so it stuck
she’s not shy about complimenting you and always tells you how handsome you look and how amazing and selfless you are for creating a whole life — for expanding your family
if your ankles start swelling or you end up with muscle pain, then grelle will happily offer to massage you to ease your aches and pain
runs you warm bubble baths every night to help ease the weight of the pregnancy for you
forever googling your symptoms and trying to find more stylish masculine maternity wear — and losing her mind when she realises that nobody seems to be selling it
(says it could be a good business idea and goes to write it down before continuing with her rant against the clothing industry)
makes sure that you have constant access to mental health services and midwives and doulas to make sure that your mental and physical well-being are the best they can be throughout pregnancy and even post partum
she buys this little spinner thing so that you can let her know how bad your dysphoria is that day and she can react accordingly (green = minimal, orange = present, red = really bad)
always at your beck and call and will answer every text or phone call from you — no matter how much it irritates william or her other colleagues
but they let her off because they’ve met you before and know that pregnancy probably isn’t fun for you — even if your wife won’t stop talking about how ‘awesome’ you are and how you’re going to be ‘the best dad ever’
grelle is with you every step of the way and she tries to be with you physically as much as her work allows — being the most supportive wife she can be and, eventually, becoming the most loving mother you could ever want your child to have
she loves you deeply and appreciates the difficulty of what you’re going through by choosing to carry this pregnancy to term, so she becomes your biggest cheerleader and most passionate advocate
someone who’d give you the moon if you asked and who’d fight everyone who got in her way
and that’s why you love her as much as you do

SCARAMOUCHE HEADCANONS
cw: scara lore spoilers + slight nsfw but it’s honestly just male anatomy talk
Tumblr media
⋆。゚☁︎。⋆。 ゚☾ ゚。⋆ ⋆。゚☁︎。⋆。 ゚☾ ゚。⋆ ⋆。゚☁︎。⋆。 ゚☾ ゚。⋆
i was talking about this in a genshin server i’m in but i hc that when scaramouche became one of the fatui harbingers, he had dottore make him look more human.
allow me to explain. it’s shown that he originally had ball joints and such, but later on when he appears during the inazuma archon quest, you can see he doesn’t have any. so i personally think that he had dottore cover it up with artificial skin and had dottore make him more durable.
if we take into account that he’s a puppet, and that puppets were originally made clay and ivory, there’s a high chance that if he took a heavy hit he’d shatter in that spot. so, i also headcanon that he had dottore alter his body to make him less breakable and thus appear more human.
i also headcanon that when ei originally created him, he had no reproductive organs. but when dottore altered his body, dottore did him a favor and gave him some. i’ll go into that a different time, but i have a few thoughts on how that would work.
anyways, i hc that he did this so it wouldn’t be as obvious and that it stems from insecurities from the niwa situation. i think his thought process would be something along the lines of: ”if it’s not as obvious, i can avoid more hurt.”
and i genuinely think that scaramouche in all of his incarnations is extremely insecure about being a puppet. maybe less so after he leaves the fatui harbingers since at that point he can’t even be bothered with it, but it’s still an extremely sensitive subject. when the traveler tells scara that they know he’s a puppet, he says something about having to have been close to them for him to tell them that. so to me it seems like its something he’s secretly insecure about and has to have an incredible amount of trust to tell someone.
i think that stems from his fear of abandonment and being hurt again, but also because if he were to fall in love, what would they think of him? he’d never admit that though.

ANATOMY OF THE MIND
the mind is made of an infinite number of selves, but only one "core self" that we all share. this is God. this is the soul of the universe.
our physical or outer self is who we live as. this includes all of the masks we put on and the various facets of other's perceptions of us. even the most minuscule of details will divide the outer self even more, creating a much more fragmented subreality for that individual.
our subreality is what we believe and how we experience the worlds around us. this is unique to every individual. most of us will have multiple coexisting subrealities, but in most cases they won't contradict to a degree that makes them unable to exist in the same dimension without breaking reality. however, there have been many cases of such a thing happening, though not widely accepted due to controversy. it is hallucinatory in nature.
each of our subrealities make up the one true Reality, which exists to make everything true all at once. it can bend reality every which way in order to make even the most oppositional beliefs exist as coexisting truths. this may also be called "the Everything."
the core self is where our "imagination" is based. the nonsensical things we experience are just as real as the sensical. dreams, "psychotic" states of delusion, tricks of the mind, visions, illogical beliefs, and other otherworldly experiences come from this self. our physical selves cannot come up with a reality-altering experience on our own, they're intentionally placed there by our core selves as ways to send us important messages and allow us to communicate wholly with the universe.
the core self is simultaneously shared by every living entity, as well as a collection of core selves within each of us that work together to create and alter reality. though it is made up of plural versions of itself, it still only exists as one being.
most of us are blocked off from our core selves, as intended by those in power (world organizations, politicians, government-funded military, generational celebrities). they rely on controlling us through simulations, in which they project their subrealities onto our individual subrealities, influencing how we view the world around us. if we learn how to access the only true reality, and the knowledge of this is widespread, then we will all access the true reality and merge together, realizing that none of us have power over each other when we are all one.
traumatic experiences such as war and personal violence, brain injuries and structural abnormalities, temporary death, ego death or other drug-induced otherworldly states, psychosis, and extreme mental illness help break down the line of division that separates us from our core selves. when the process of degradation has already begun, you have been granted the opportunity to do something of meaning, and potentially access the one true Reality.

Random Failtopia thoughts
(Some of these are new, some of these are not, most aren't canon)
"Pyrotechnic" is a perfectly viable ship name for Lanchi.
Orion struggled to differentiate between Slapo's autism and Shrimp's ADHD, hence the brick for a gift.
Bill being the Cat class initially is never explained, but we know he met Chat right before his first onscreen appearance, and they're obsessed with a man in the Cat class, so the dots connect for it to be Chat who convinced Bill to take up the class.
Chi's illiteracy in S1 probably means she didn't know how to spell anyone's name, especially Pirahnyawn's.
Not one person ever questions the massive circles, grey skin, and complete lack of eye contact that make up Bo's face, because Miitopia faces are usually that fucked-up.
The reason the Dark Lord needed a ghost specifically to assassinate Mar was because the Chef himself is a ghost (Dark Curse), and only a ghost can kill another ghost.
Erica studies anatomy regularly in S2, which means she knows that a regular person begins dying at 25, her current age, so it's no wonder she always has death on her mind.
Bo and Rose being immediate family is impossible, but Rose being a descendant of Bo is not, under the assumption that despite not having children herself, Bo's bloodline didn't die with her.
The only three characters to have a canonical dynamic with Slapo are Orion, Mar, and Bo.
All we know about Chat's backstory is that they came from the Otherworld, and are obsessed with Failboat. The only big thing Failboat did in the Otherworld was the S1 final boss fight, which ended in a huge explosion. It's entirely possible that this explosion is what disrupted the Otherworld faces, to the point they formed Chat.
Erica likes to cut things short, but when she's around Bo, she keeps launching into long rambles about how great she is. These are the only times she feels like she can let her thoughts loose, since Bo did just that in the greenhouse by revealing her darkest secret.
On a similar note, Erica's past keeps being thrown back in her face, while Bo can never get her past back, no matter how hard she tries.
Due to Zone having both pink and black appearances, there may or may not be two Zones. That, or Friend's a good enough hat maker to alter Zone's colouring themselves. Considering her passion for his clothing, it's probably the latter.
Were it not for the S2 Greenhorne Arc, Hank would probably have a similar amount of screentime to Slapo.
Marion is a semi-canon ship, by the definition of one party canonically having romantic feelings toward the other, but whether Orion returns Mar's feelings is made comedically unclear.
Chi has inconsistent opinions on spicy food throughout the series, maybe because her fire obsession gets to the point that she has extremely high standards for what's spicy enough.
Rose holds her fan in the specific way she does to hide the mole on her face, something she's grown to hate because it sets her apart from the image of Rosalina.
"Deko" is not his real name, he was probably given Izuku Midoriya at birth, but his new name had to come from somewhere. That place may have been the lab where he was experimented on. The project name may have been along the lines of "DEK-0".
The lab experiment thing also makes it really funny that the only two people he really bonds with are the Scientists of the series.
Shrimp's in-universe fandom could very well be toxic. There are definitely people who are a little too interested in finding out where that 'mysterious' chip on her tooth came from.
Bill is the only character who consistently calls out Chat for their reckless behaviour. In other words, he's the one who moderates Chat.
If Kronkui didn't control who joined the team, TFFM would be down six members (Bob, Smuk, Deko, Rose, Yawn, Joker). TI, on the other hand, would only be down three members (Orion, Failboat, Chat).
Chi gets very protective when enemies are close to her allies in S1, and in parallel, Erica gets very protective when enemies are close to her allies in S2, especially if that ally is Chi.
Despite Failica being everything that they aren't, the first ship ever concocted in Failtopia was Smukle Bob.

Since Mochi becomes cta cuz she's the cat witch, does the same happen to the other witches with their familiar counterparts? :3c
Yep!! I dont think it alters their uh....anatomy?? drastically, but you get a few cool stuff from your familiar!! murdas is hella cool cuz she actually gets to have wings, whereas someone like the frog witch is less lucky cuz she gets kinda slimy and wart-y, so it depends on your familiar but some are luckier than others in terms of the stuff they get to have :')
regardless its only for the night with the new moon so sunset-sunrise!! theyre not going out doing cool witch things, usually they stay inside and hide out because 1) its weird looking most of the time and 2) they cant use magic which makes them extremely vulnerable to enemies!!
(no one really knows the nature of the transformation or how it works because some witches get animal features sticking out of them like ears and wings and some witches have like...a human equivalent to the animal features--like the spider witch has multiple arms)

Is there something that you wanted to draw but didn’t have enough skills to do it? What was that, explain me your vision. Im really curious.
The list is practically infinite haha! I'm actually a pretty limited artist.
I mentioned somewhere, I can't really picture things? I can't. Even when I try really hard it just sort of doesn't work. It's not truly nothing but it might as well be. So I really really struggle with anything that involves stylization, lines. I have to sort of, brute force "I know anatomy means this goes here and the arm has to be this size" everything. Everything has to get that extremely exact step by step consideration. The only thing I can reliably make stylized versions of is fish. And even then, it's not very consistent or adaptive, because I struggle to remember how to do it.
On the other hand, I work really well with reference. So I can recreate a reference, in line or painting, usually pretty well. Putting a lot of effort in, I can combine references, alter things a bit.
Recently I discovered if I have a bit of reference on how light plays across something I can color something freely, almost without thinking too hard, because I have a decent understanding of light and I'm willing to work over a limited palette. I've sort of wanted to cry about it because it makes me feel like I'm doing art instead of just... recreating things.
Over time I've built up the ability to sketchline some things, don't get me wrong, but making anything that specifically looks like someone is pretty much out of my wheelhouse. There was about 10 failure Tyler coyotes and that's despite it being largely unrecognizable in the first place.
So that is to say.... I'm so proud of what I've managed to gain, in terms of art skill, and I'm really proud of what I can do. There IS things I can do, and I can do them well, and I try to find pride in that.
But in terms of what I wish I could do? God, I could tell you about specific ideas, grand plots, whatever. But really, I just wish I could sketch out something that looked like someone without taking 9 hours. I would kill for some sort of flexibility or ability to do cartoon drawing. It's why a lot of my comments on art are about how amazing I find the stylization. It's kind of out of reach for me. It's something I find so, so impressive. If you draw and you draw like, characters doing things, even if it's just silly different scenes, even if it's just them having different expressions — god, I wish I could do that. It's not for lack of trying. But after years, it kind of beats down on you when you make no progress.
On the other hand, all those years, I WAS learning, so when I finally started doing something more accessible to me I was able to use the skill and eye I'd essentially built up. So that's nice.

Has anyone else noticed how the more powerful a god is the more their esper's body will change?
Like how Jiang Jiuli getting a demon appearence and Lewis getting literal fire coming out of him 24/7 because their espers of gods of war
Abigail(Frigga) has plants coming out of her skull and as seen in her cinematic trailer she has some level of super strenght because of her casually lifting a man much bigger than her
Freddy, esper of Fenrir aka BRINGER OF THE APOCALYPSE FEARED BY ALL NORSE GODS, straight up mutated into a wolf/human hybrid with an anatomy thats just not normal at all for a human, his body seems adapted to be both bipedal and quadrupedal with exaggerated muscle mass and a very strange bone structure(which is very interesting because his anatomy is a middle ground between human and animal)
Most of the furry espers have extremely powerful patrons as Set, Anubis, Sobek, Atum, Garmr, the Sphinx
Narmer has some weird wings, Hyde's skin is void black, Yin Yuyao's lower half is literally just a tiger
Its like the power of some gods is too much for the human body to the point it "cracks their vessel"this cracks being body alterations

platonique radio dust friend thots
1. I am choosing to ignore the canon where Angel and Alastor barely interact because they should be friends! This blog's Allie IS FRIENDS with her local Angel! Not like, soul-bearing BESTIES, but they are chaos friends who do Shenanigans. As it should be!
2. Back when Both of them were alive, there wasn't really a distinction between trans women + gay men (and there certainly wasn't one between gay men vs bi men, but that's more Alexa-relevant than Allie-relevant.)
I will live for & die for them being friends who Recognize each other as being like... not The Same, but close!
And now that her powers are nuked and she actually has to use analog ways to alter her appearance (like, she actually has to wear actual makeup if she wants makeup on her face, she can't just illusion it up for the day LMAO) I love the thot of her & her local Angel sitting next to each other like drag queens in a dressing room, kvetching Trixie & Katya style. And using extremely specific intracommunity lingo that the others don't get!!
Also her local Angel DID say "I can suck your dick" when they met but NOT bc she's trans & he made an assumption about her anatomy & decided to be bothersome. He read her as a tomboyish futchy cis lady and was clowning on her. Because SHE STARTED IT with "what can YOU do, my TWINKY HOME OF SEXUAL?" (y'all know damn well what canon Alastor meant by effeminate fellow) so he CLAPPED BACK! Like girl how are you gonna come @ me for being a girly dude when you're a tomboyish futchy lady. Get it together. We are both gnc. (It Was A Misunderstanding and they are Friends Now)

This has been sitting in my drafts for weeks now. Please take it while I finish a one-shot. 
Gender-neutral reader!!!
Mad inappropriate perv!eddie thought coming through (throwing some modern and college while I’m at it) (sorry if you hate influencers of any kind idc it’s my job to deal with them).
I went to an art college… there were sometimes sessions on Fridays (no classes Fridays, those were makeup/studio/project/etc days) where people would come to pose and students could draw. There were never nude people in classes, even if the class was about people and anatomy (a lot of bone drawings and clothed posing though) for privacy and safety reasons. 
(I am altering some of how this worked, mostly how the models actually came in and posing and such).
There were extremely strict rules since these people were naked or mostly though. No device that could take photos. None. Just you and your mediums of choice unless that medium is digital. Then absolutely not. Also, if you were not there when doors closed, you were not allowed in. You cannot leave during.
Now Eddie, dear Eddie. He considered sound design. Maybe performing arts. Film and TV sounds cool. But after years of drawing character sheets and scenes from campaigns, he chooses sequential art (comic books, basically. Or film storyboarding/concepting or video game storyboarding/concepting but most common job is comics and graphic novels).
He hears about one of these drawing sessions. Not by checking his email that is full of information about what’s available that week, but because his Life Drawing I professor mentions it (this would be like his sophomore or junior year). He is kind of mad that no one told him before, but there was really no reason to. Plus, he would have known if he checked his fucking email.
He’s late the first time. But they have four a quarter, so it’s fine. He’ll just come the second time. He is late again, though.
Third time he gets there early. Puts his phone away like everyone else and finds a seat a little bit more towards the far edge of the circle. He doesn’t want other people to see his drawing. Plus, he’s tall. He can see over others.
There is a chair like you see at a classic psych’s office set up, and he is wondering what is happening today. So is most of the room, but at this point in the quarter, it is mostly people who have been at least once.
The door to the room shuts.
One of the professors in charge reminds everyone of the various rules. You are allowed to move around the room. You are allowed to come as close as the lines on the floor. Please keep talking to a minimum. Do not distract the model. Do not say or do anything inappropriate. Do not try to get the model’s number or instagram handle or whatsapp or whatever you kids are using now. Don’t try to get the model’s name. They are here to help with your education.
It’s just one model today. And only two poses. Midterms were last week and finals are ridiculously soon after. So take your time. Breathe. Focus on this.
The professor goes to another door Eddie didn’t see and opens it. He whispers something and out comes you, wearing a robe. He and everyone else stare (he checks to make sure it isn’t weird to stare and apparently it’s normal) as you walk over to the couch-chair thing. Before you sit, however, you remove the robe and drape it over the head of the chair. 
Now he is definitely staring. 
Staring intently as you lie down completely nude, carefully leaning on your right arm with a grin. 
“Draw me like one of your french girls,” you tease once you’ve fully positioned yourself into nearly the same pose.
But your hips are positioned differently, head cocked differently, back curved more. Forces people to have to draw what they see even more, not what they think they see (as he has heard thousands of times from all his drawing professors). That line from you was intentional to get people in their heads.
It’s not the line that gets in his head though. It’s you. He can barely draw. He glances around several times to see if anyone else is struggling and while he sees a few heated faces and adjusting of pants, everyone is still doing what they came to do. Some are even right up to that line two feet away, getting angles of your body he wishes he could get. But there’s just no way he could. Not if he doesn’t want to be that person.
At about the halfway point, you switch poses.
On your stomach, head propped up on hands, elbows bent to also left your chest off the chair. Your feet are by the head, up and crossed. Like some school girl listening to her best friend. But then you push your hips into that chair just a little more and your back curves and the pose morphs enough that he can see several more experienced life artists nodding in interest at the prospect of new curves and lines and shadows.
Somehow he gets through the two-hour session without creaming his fucking pants.
His sketchpad is almost entirely clean as well.
He breaks a rule. He finds the model later. He finds you. On accident. Entirely. He swears. A friend he made freshman shares a post of yours on Instagram. Apparently, you are a local influencer. Super sweet. It’s sickly sweet as he scrolls. Small business this, small business that. A video labeled “forcing guilt over fast fashion is classist” that he watches that talks about how if you have the money, there is no reason not to be buying ethical fashion but to be guilting people who don’t is irresponsible when the onus is on the businesses themselves. But there are hundreds of photos and videos of you across town. He hits follow. You are now. the only person he is following that isn’t a band he likes or a franchise he likes or one of his friends. But other students follow you, so what’s the big deal?
He puts notifications on so he can see when you post.
Every post is a jolt of serotonin combined with a rush of arousal. And he finds himself going out more over the next three weeks, trying out the places you suggest and seeing if he might see you again.
And the lives? When he can see you are at a restaurant just three blocks down?
Yeah. He takes a break from his work just to see if he can get a glimpse of you. But you are usually gone by the time he can get himself dressed and presentable and not hard as hell.
He goes again on Week 9, hoping you will be there (he doesn’t understand why it is weeks 2, 4, 6, and 9 rather than 2, 4, 6 and 8. He doesn’t want to wait 3 weeks). It’s rare for models to come twice in a row, another student mentions. But you’ve come a few times over the past couple of years, and every time is so much fun. 
“They’re really good at giving us unique poses to draw. And super nice. They’ll sometimes repost our work if we tag them, even though the professors don’t want us to follow and all that,” the student finishes with.
The door shuts. The professor opens the other door.
You’re back.

Lord of the Fourth: Belial, the Pale Kiss
Tumblr media
CR 28
Lawful Evil Medium Outsider
Bestiary 6, pg. 20~21
Belial is one of the more unique Archdevils in the employ of the Prince of Darkness, having been hand-crafted by Asmodeus as something of an idol meant to draw people into Hell’s embrace through selfish desire and the pursuit of physical pleasure. Why, precisely, Asmo decided to test out just how beautiful of a creature he could make is something he’s never really expanded upon, but reckless self-destructive lust and hedonism tend to fall more into the domain of Chaotic or Neutral Evil, so having a shapeshifting seducer on his side has been nothing but an asset for the infernal expansion Asmodeus demands.
They’re way more than just a pretty face(s), though. Asmodeus wasn’t just satisfied with gorgeous body and gifted Belial with a similarly powerful mind, the creativity and imagination necessary to shape themselves into inhuman beauty translating dangerously into the creativity of crafting all manner of weapons, armors, magic items, and even new creatures never before seen. Thankfully, despite their bottomless inspiration, Belial shows little care for any of their projects once completed, discarding the designs to begin working on the next one and leaving any flaws they overlooked or improvements that need to be made for someone else to deal with.
As for that imagination regarding their shapeshifting body, though, Belial has one of the most powerful versions of Change Shape in the entire game, not only capable of shifting freely as a move action as many times per day as they desire, but capable of taking on any form they can conceive, even ones that don’t exist. Thankfully, to keep that from getting TOO insane, they can only take on the powers and abilities listed in Beast Shape IV, Elemental Body III, Plant Shape II, Alter Self, and Form of the Dragon I. While still a tremendously impressive toolbox of potential tricks and natural attacks, it means they don’t have access to things like the incorporeality of Undead Anatomy, the stat bonuses from Giant Form, or the extremely long ability list of Monstrous Physique. Take the time to remember that Belial can still take on any form their imagination allows, they just don’t get the powers of that form unless it’s from one of the previously listed spells; hey can still freely shift into any Ooze, Outsider, or Aberration they need to in order to tempt you into walking into the fires of Hell.
Their Baleful Beauty ability causes just that to happen, forcing any creature within 30ft whose creature type matches whatever form they’re displaying (their default humanoid/devil form, however, affects all humanoid creatures regardless of creature type) to abandon all reason and higher thought processes and run straight into Belial’s melee range through whatever means they possibly can to smooch all over them. A DC 39 Will save resists this diabolic pull and prevents one from falling for the same trick, but anyone who fell for it the first time not only loses their turn but is also subject to Belial’s draining Caress, automatically gaining 2 negative levels with no save and needing to make a DC 39 Fortitude save or else take 1d4 Int, Wis, AND Cha damage.
And this is just the surface of what Belial can inflict once in melee...
And we’re not even done talking about Caress! I just ran out of room above the Keep Reading split. The Caress is a melee touch attack Belial can weave in with their Full-Attack action, a single lascivious touch or--more commonly--a draining kiss delivered in the middle of the beatdown that inflicts the same penalty as it would to anyone failing their save against Baleful Beauty. What’s worse is that anyone suffering any penalty from the Caress--and remember it inflicts negative levels with no save!--can further be afflicted by Belial’s spell-likes. They can inflict the dreaded Misfortune effect as a swift action against any caressed creature when targeting them with any tool on their belt, including Baleful Polymorph and Dominate Person at will, as well as Quickened Mass Suggestion or Prismatic Spray at 3/day.
We’ve gone over just how dangerous turning the party against one another is time and time again, but hopefully by level 25+ the party has some level of defense against mind-affecting effects, though remember they’re likely to be held back by Misfortune... And even more unfortunately, that’s not the only trick Belial has: their Ranseur Mastery turns their chosen weapon, a +4 Speed Unholy Ranseur, into a 10ft threat radius that’s incredibly difficult to fight in. Each blow deals 2d4+26 damage (+2d6 vs Good), and when doing a Full-Attack they can strike five times instead of four. At any point during the Full-Attack, they can forego weapon damage to use the Disarm property of their ranseur (+49 to Disarm) to tear weapons from their foes’ hands and hurl them away with Greater Disarm, leaving victims stranded in their threat radius without a way to fight back.
Monk and Brawler DPS, perhaps?
This is all in addition to any natural attacks gained from their current form, but Belial also has a handful of natural attacks to spice up their Full-Attack on their own... even if they’re more for show than anything else. Their gore deals a paltry 1d6+6, and their two wings 2d8+6 each. Anyone struck by their wings must make a DC 41 Fortitude save or be staggered for 1 round and dazzled for 1d4, but this Fiendish Fluttering is more of a ribbon atop the potential level drain and stat damage from the Caress being woven into the Full-Attack. Just an extra little kick in the pants for someone who got stabbed four times already and just needs and extra 7~12 points to actually die.
On the defensive side, Belial can cast Waves of Ecstasy 3/day and Overwhelming Presence 1/day, the former of which staggers the entire party even if they all succeed their save (stunning and staggering anyone who fails for multiple rounds), the latter of which can end a combat the moment it begins as the Archdevil saunters up and coup de graces helpless targets... or simply ignores whoever failed to focus their efforts on anyone still standing. They can also utilize their Baleful Beauty in reverse, shifting into a form so violently repulsive that any creature who sees it becomes nauseated for 1d6 rounds and takes 1d8 Strength damage unless they succeed a DC 39 Will save.
Anyone who makes it past their spells and fights back must deal with not only the suit of resistances and immunities conferred by the Archdevil status, but Belial’s Amorphous Anatomy and Reflexive Shapeshifting. Amorphous Anatomy allows them to cancel out Sneak Attacks, critical hits, and other precision damage by winning a coin flip, shrug off polymorph effects immediately, and regrow lost or damaged sensory organs to assure blindness and deafness don’t last for more than a round. Reflexive Shapeshifting is usable only once a battle (1/minute) but is their more powerful defensive option, granting them an immediate +10 AC against an incoming melee attack. If that attack misses, Belial can then flutter up to 30ft in any direction without provoking AoOs, usually slipping past the party’s buffed frontline.
Oh, yes... And all those buffs? Best avoid morale bonuses! Belial can copy any morale bonuses near them with Hedonistic Hope, gaining those bonuses as well and rendering them effectively meaningless. Even worse, if they manage to critically strike someone (with a x3 crit modifier on their ranseur!), any morale bonuses they have are automatically suppressed for 1 minute, leaving the Pale Kiss the only one reaping the rewards of everyone else’s work.
Terrifying power in such a beautiful package! And we’re barely halfway down the roster...
You can read more about them here.

KARS INFODUMP / RANT / RAMBLE
-----------------------------
"Behold! The Ultimate life form!"
Kars is the leader of the Pillar Men, and also the creator of the Stone Masks.
The Stone Masks are Masks which if put on with blood splattered on it will turn people into fricking vampires.
His so to say "evil" plan is to evolve from his natural form to become immune to the sun's rays, and for this he needs to find the Red Stone of Aja to make his masks more powerful, to do this he tries to beat a lot of people and one of them is Joseph Joestar(obiviously the jojo of that time).
He is absolutely the smartest and strongest of all the Pillar Men. He created all the Stone Masks aaaand because of that, "artificial" vampires too so Kars is one of the more important characters in all the anime and manga!
Basically his invention, in the long run, caused all of the shit that happens in jjba lmao. It will affect the Brando, Joestar and Zeppeli families.
And to think a lot of people skip this season. Respectfully, go watch the fucking thing, this shit's important
He has *a lot* of abilities both in his Original form and his Ultimate form!
-------------------------------------------------------
Original form
Near-Immortality. My boi Kars is immune to age and disease and has lived for approximately 102,000 years
Enhanced Senses Kars can see people thanks to the heat their body produces
Teleportation Kars was shown to be able to teleport during his meeting with Lisa Lisa and Joseph.
Body Manipulation Kars has the same body manipulation capabilities shared by his friends I guess? Their either that or smth along hose lines. When he became the Ultimate Being, Kars' shapeshifting abilities were enhanced and he had access to all the genetic codes of Earth's known life forms along with reactive evolution.
-------------------------------------------------------
Ultimate Life form
Biology Manipulation As the Ultimate Life Form, Kars' body contains the DNA of everything to ever live on the Earth. He can manipulate his entire body to replicate the traits of any life-form
The ability to fly I guess? Cause when his arms transformed into a weird kind of bird wings, Kars can fly at approximately 240 km/h!! (I searched it up and that's acutally so fast what)
Reactive Evolution Kars can also alter his body to withstand extreme conditions... and turn his hands into squirrels I guess.
Superhuman Intelligence Kars is an extremely intelligent and cunning individual, even by the high standards of his species. He was the one who created the Stone Mask, studying the Pillar Men's brains to unlock untapped power. After he transformed into the Ultimate Life Form, his IQ is estimated to be 400. Much higher than that of even the most intelligent person
Superhuman Senses He is able to hear anything from whale calls to bat screams. His vision is akin to an astronomical telescope (can you imagine that? That's so cool tbh)
Superhuman Strength Kars possesses incredible strength, estimated to be almost 900 kg/cm2 (mmm I'm having feelings about this idk what that meant but yes)
Regeneration Kars can heal any wound in a very short time I'M FAST AS FUCK BOIIII
Immortality Kars is immortal, invincible and nearly indestructible it seems. He doesn't age and he can survive only having himself as a source for everything (he's even ecologic would you look at that/hj)
-------------------------------------------------------
Personal rambling and praising of the subject
I LOVE HIM. No no no no no. Love is too weak of a word. I ADORE his character. He's just so perfect, every time i see him on screen I flap my hands so much because of how excited I am, I know he's a mass murderer, I know he doesn't care for humanity, I know he's a dick but he's also my comfort character.
Every time I see something about him I freak out. I feel so connected to him for some reason. He's such a self assorbed bustard but I love it tbh. If I could draw anatomy well i'd draw myself with him a lot more but I could draw him decently like once or twice so yea... wryyy...
There are no words able to describe his character as beautiful as I see him fr.
His hair is perfect, I adore it, like bitch you been in there for 100,000 years and you're hair is majestic points to you for sure. He's elegant, petty and arrogant and A LOT of other things that just make him Kars and they are all so spot on. He's so well written I could feel him through the manga if I wanted to.
His powers are great, just great. I'd let him experiment with them on me fr. Example... super strength? Crush please and thank you.
I love his eyes, they're so cool, aswell with his makeup ofc.
I'd let him treat me like a fricking puppy. Imma be real with y'all, if it's him I have no problem with that, where do I sign up. Tell me.
-------------------------------------------------------

Do different types of demons have different types of reproductive anatomy and/or reproductive abilities?? Like how the koorime are able to reproduce asexually.
Mhm, while the most common type of reproductive anatomy amongst demons aren't much or at all different from humans- thus why some can mate with them- there's even more range to them than there is amongst all of the creatures in the Ningenkai. Some moreso resemble the fish or insects of this world, or even enact the process of fission like starfish. There's actually a few types of demons that reproduce more like plants do as well, who can self-"pollinate" if they so choose. Additionally, there's also the case of what Yomi has done with his son, Shura- taking the human phrase of, ah, "test tube baby" to a more... extreme and literal level. 😅
I'm not the most familiar with the specifics of it since it's quite rare to encounter these types of demons, but ones that communicate solely through telepathy are able to impregnate one another through that ability... I assume it might be something to do with activating the release of specific chemicals that forms the fetus. And they don't appear to create cloned offsprings, so perhaps the dna is somehow altered in their mind link... Ah, but keep in mind, this is all speculation, really.
There's also a ritual that's possible for any demons to do for creating a child together (I'm unsure if humans are capable of it, it's potentially incompatible with reiki). However, it's not commonly done because depleting so much of your youki for an extended period can easily be fatal in the Makai. You see, to complete this process two or more demons have to collect pieces of themselves that carry enough of their dna (claws, hairs, skin, and the like), and center their youki to try materializing the fetus and a sort of "egg" out of the items. It's easier for those who already excel in object manifestation, but for those who don't specialize in that, it can take them some time to do it successfully- and each attempt drains their energy. After that, more youki has to be centered on it to summon a soul so it won't be stillborn, and then it has to be continuously fed more youki over time to help the fetus develop.
I've also questioned Yukina about the specifics of Koorime reproduction before. Honestly, sometimes I worry I'm burdening her with too many queries about the race and how life was on Hyouga... 😅 I'm just so curious since there's so little known about them on the outside. She reassures me she doesn't mind and is happy to share about her home, I just hope she truly means that... She's quite patient and indulgent, after all.
Koorime actually do something a bit similar to the process I described above- specifically with creating a fetus through youki- though they're unique in that they can create the fetus solo. They also don't require to continuously feed it youki, as it's receiving nutrients within them like a typical pregnancy. However, it seems they can only do this once a century. And when the time comes, apparently it's expected of them to impregnate themselves- if they can't or won't, the elders will focus their own youki into the other Koorime's body to form the fetus. If that still doesn't work... I guess those unable to become pregnant tend to be looked down upon- not necessarily mistreated per se, but Yukina said she certainly noticed a more distant and judgemental air from some- particularly the elders- around those who are infertile. Apparently the woman who raised her, Rui, was one of those few. I suppose even for demons fit for the harsh elements of Hyouga, there's still regimens needed to keep the race alive, but to rely on something like forced impregnation... Even if pregnancy hasn't been a possibility for me since very early on in my life, that thought still makes my skin crawl.
