Photographer x Model

Yesterday before Mile traveled to Switzerland/Italy Apo was there when Mile was getting ready. But not only this, he was taking pics of Mile professionally as well.

“Meow Apaew, the new intern photographer 😻✨️” [Translation credit]

When people saw these pictures of Mile they wondered if Apo took them, along with the others but weren't sure because maybe someone else took over:

Today we got confirmation that Apo took photos of him in various positions, sitting as well:

And look who came to compliment the photographer:

"Drink it up quickly and head home already. My friends are coming over. I don't want them to know about our deal." "But I'm your customer. How could you chase me away like this? When your friends show up, just tell them I'm here for a coffee. That won't sound strange." "It will. Our shop is already closed."

KINNPORSCHE TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY EVENT

— prompt: identity

Pete takes a robe out of the closet of abandoned skins — vibrant ruby, glowing emerald.

Vegas no longer wears them.

(Without them, he seems much lighter.)

He slides into a silky jade green, covers himself in Vegas' old skin, wrapping it around himself and letting it warm his own; folding himself into the embrace of Vegas' scent.

Like this, Pete can become someone else — his warped personhood overlapping and melting together with Vegas'.

This closeness transforms him.

Into someone with Vegas' confidence, who's not afraid to want, who knows how he likes it.

Into someone who will ask for it.
