People using ai for art just hurts me so much every time. I feel like they forget that they are made up out of other artists hard work. We all spend HOURS on our work and then there’s people that put a few prompts into ai and call that their work. That’s not your work that’s plagiarism.

So my sad gay self found this while scrollin: https://youtube.com/shorts/KTjKsm2uLPA?si=aHCxEMjey1iZ_u0A
Very cute, very wholesome I AM YEARNING. So if I may request a mlm!reader who will just casually people soda tabs as a subtle means of flirting or asking for affection (mostly because its such a uncommon practice that it removes most of the actual stress of flirting) with Vox?
No pressure, please take you time! Kisses darling <3
-📽
A/N: Honestly the soda tab thing is SO CUTE. I'm experimenting with more with how I write Vox so hopefully this is good
Word Count: 1.7k (1,755)
Soda Tab [ Vox x M!Reader ]
“Vox what the fuck is that?” Velvette pointed at a jar full of soda tabs on his desks.
“I’m gonna be real honest with you.” He took a deep breath in, “I have no fucking idea.”
You were just a regular sinner in the Pride Ring. You grew tired of the one time dates that ended with your date wanting to take you home into their bedroom. You held yourself to a standard. It made sense why you were placed in this ring considering your pride never allowed you the speak freely, not wanting to damage whatever was left of your reputation after a failed relationship.
You eventually landed a job with VoxTek as an operation’s manager. The job wasn’t easy but it paid and gave you shelter. Your soul remained intact but your sanity was slipping.
Then it all changed when the fire nation attacked when Vox personally invited you into his office to discuss a promotion. He needed someone that could hold their composure better than the Vees during important meetings and speak on their behalf. You were basically Vox’s representative so they wouldn’t have to deal with whatever, or whoever, you had to deal with. You held your status with pride and Vox admired the way you didn’t take anybody’s shit professionally.
After years of working with the Vees, you became close with them. Conversations with the three weren’t easy but they were mandatory for you to be able to represent them properly. You and Vox were particularly close.
So when he invited you to a celebratory dinner, you donned yourself in the best suit money could buy and set off. You never admitted it but Valentino definitely caught onto your secret crush on Vox.
Vox rarely faltered his usual persona in front of you, only losing composure a couple of times when his emotions were at an all time high. What you didn’t know is how he admired your consistency with perfection. Perfection. Running this business with Velvette and Valentino, who are both hot-heads in their own way, was difficult at times but since you stepped in, it’s been smooth sailing. Your constant shower of praise fueled his ego and he enjoyed keeping you around, just so he can get his fill of ego juice.
This dinner he arranged was to celebrate your work, and to boast about how he’s so smart and picked perfectly because of course he picked perfectly. He was the Vox after all. So when he saw you running up to him a couple minutes early before the arranged meeting time at the limo, he was taken aback at your suit. He was enamored.
You matched him in colors, even wearing the same bowtie as him but blue. Your suit was a darker shade of his and he loved it. It was perfect. You were perfect to him. He didn’t know why his heart pounded louder so he assumed that he was just excited to talk about how he made an amazing decision to you.
“Vox, sir! I hope you weren’t awaiting my arrival.” You said, anxiously fixing your suit and straightening out any loose ends.
“Oh don’t worry about anything. I just got here. The suit is perfect. Where did you get it?” Vox spoke, looking down at you with his hands behind his back.
“I listened to your suggestion, sir, and went to Velvette to get suited. I paid her in full, of course.” You spoke formally. So formal that it somehow bothered Vox in a way. As much as he loved being perfect, he wanted to see you when you weren’t so…tense.
“Paid? You shouldn’t have to worry. You are a part of the Vees, services are free for us.” He laughed. He took note of how you looked in front of him. You stood up straight, not a single thing out of place. He wondered what exactly could break this perfectionist standard you held yourself to.
.
“He likes you, Vox.” Valentino said, “I’m fuckin’ blind and I can see the way he eye fucks you whenever you start talking about how you’re the shit and you know what’s right or whatever.”
“And how can you be so sure, Val? I think he just respects me.” Vox scoffed, “Not any of that nonsense.”
“Yeah and because any other demon would willingly hang out with your egocentric bullshit. I’ve known you for years and I can’t stand hearing you say you were right. Even if you were.” Velvette rolled her eyes, “He literally posts romantic bullshit all the time and they’re all about bosses.”
“Are you stalking our employees?”
“Cut the shit. It’s not ‘stalking’ if his account is open to me.” She flipped him off, “And he’s basically a Vee. He likes you. And now you’re going on a date. Be a dear and stop beating around the fucking bush and own up to it.”
.
Vox recounted the conversation he had with the two other Vees. This wasn’t a date. Or at least he didn’t arrange it to be one to begin with but with this revelation, it might just turn out to be just that.
As the limo began to slow, he glanced over at you. He sees you fiddling with…a soda tab? He squinted at it, trying to understand why you kept fidgeting. “We’re here.”
You quickly shoved the tab in your pocket and looked at him, “I’ll get the door for you sir.” You reached for the door on your side but he stopped your hand with his own.
“No, I got it. Come on.” He opened his own door and pulled you out, keeping your hand in his as you stepped on the curb. Your hands were warm and he enjoyed it. He looked at the way you instinctively held his hand back and he couldn’t help but feel how perfect it fit in his own.
“Thank you, sir.” Your thanks got a scoff and you stiffened, pulling your hand back down to your side. “I’m sorry.”
“No. Not that.” He said, grabbing your hand again, “For tonight, call me Vox. No more of that sir bullshit.”
You nod in response, unaware of why he’d grab your hand to say that. You were even more confused when he didn’t let go until you had to sit across from him.
“Regarding today’s meetings, I’d like to discu—”
“Hush. Please. No business talk. This is to celebrate you!” He proudly spoke, “I picked the best demon to be our representative and I’d like to give you another promotion. To be one of the Vees.”
You choked on your wine, “Excuse me? Me? No, I can't possibly be a fit person for that.”
“Look. You’re aware of our image, correct?”
“Yes. Perfection.”
“Well that’s exactly why you’re going to stand by us and be part of us. I have contracts ready for you to sign so you can get a couple of souls under your belt. Some goons to do your dirty work.”
“Sir—Vox. Vox, I thought this was a business dinner regarding my work quota for the week?” You questioned.
“What—No. You already exceed the quota triple the amount majority of the time. Consider this a…date.” He grinned, taking enjoyment in your flustered state. “A congratulatory gift for your hard work and your promotion. I called it too, by the way, your success with us.”
You were dying on the inside. He just gifted you a promotion and a dinner and now the dinner’s actually a date? You panicked, not having anything to give him.
“Well…I’m flattered but I don’t have anything to give you a gift in exchange.” You rummage through your pockets. Your fingers grazed the soda tab and your cheeks flushed a light red. “Actually…Here. A small token of my appreciation.”
Vox squinted at the soda tab you held towards him. “A soda tab?” He asked, “Do you just carry soda tabs? Why?”
“Just…trinkets! You know, my little collection. Actually you’re right, I’m sorry. It’s probably stupid.” You start to retract but he swipes the soda tab out of your hand.
“No. I’ll keep it. It’s weird and a little stupid but it’s…” He flips the soda tab around, looking at it from different angles, “Admirable. In a sense. Thank you.”
Oh if only he knew what he unlocked. Ever since the date, he’s been getting soda tabs from you. You were greeted with confused acceptance every time you gave Vox one out of nowhere. He tried asking you what they’re for exactly but you’d just run off, using work as an excuse.
“Vox, when are you going to cash these in?” Velvette asks, picking a pink soda tab out of his container.
He looked up, confused, “Cash them in? What are you talking about?”
Velvette bursts into laughter, “Oh my god. You’ve just been collecting these and didn’t know?!” She taps through her phone and shows him a video explaining the soda tab trend.
His face turned red, “These…these are for kisses? He didn’t tell me these were for kisses—I thought they were just trinkets! That’s what he said!”
“Vox for someone as smart as you, you’re really fucking dumb.”
“Velvette.”
“What?”
“Can you go get him for me?”
“I guess.”
.
You walked into his office thinking it was to talk about the latest update on his Angelic Security System. “Vox, I’m pleased to inform you that production is 80% complete. I was thinking the best workers get compe—” He cuts you off by placing a single soda tab on the stack of papers you had in front of you. You look at him confused.
“I’d like to cash one in.” He says, looking at you with a confident smile.
“Cash one in…” You think for a bit and as soon as you realize he knew what they were for, panic sets in and your face turns red. “Oh! Uh—Haha. What do you mean?” You lie.
“Y/N, dear, you’re terrible at lying. You’re perfect at everything but lying. And if you wanted some special attention, you should’ve said so.” He leans closer to you as he gestures to the jar on his table, “Also. I’d like to cash in half of this jar. 280 of them, including this one, I believe.”
“Sir! I can’t possibly—” He shuts up you with a sudden peck on your lips.
“Ah ah. None of that sir bullshit. I told you to call me Vox. Now…” He leans back and pats his lap, “I believe I have 279 left? Chop chop.”

|My cousin’s fiancé ~ Hwang Hyunjin| 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Paring: Hwang Hyunjin x reader
Genre: smut Warnings: swearings, little angst, sex but with a condom, mention of cheating, mention of alcohol, fingering
Word Count: 3,810
Summary: Who knew that cheating on one person can lead to a very pleasant event between two people?
—----------------- 
‘Shit! Please, again? What is wrong with me today?’ You asked yourself looking at the already red arm. You were focused on your phone and didn’t see the glass window that you bumped into, instead of crossing the door. 
‘Are you okay, miss?’ You’ve heard the butler’s voice who looked at you concerned.
‘Yes, yes… I’m okay… thank you’ you answered and went straight to sit at the couch in the living room. You again focused on your cell phone and the news that you were reading. 
Apparently the Hwang Corporation, a leading company into the research and development industry, had a new CEO. Every single magazine was writing about the big news. You rolled your eyes. They were praising him as if he was at least the duke. 
Hwang Hyunjin, the new big boss, was well known among all the investors and businessmen in the whole city. He was charming, tall, flirty and… painfully handsome. Every single woman in the whole industry was dreaming about him. 
And you? You hated him with your whole heart. For you he was just a douchebag who decided to fuck your cousin and then propose to her. So you were forced to see him every single celebration day or gala that your family had been organising.  
You two couldn’t get along since the beginning of your acquaintance. You didn’t know why though, you just hated him, and he hated you - or at least that was what you thought. In your eyes he was just a spoiled kid, who happened to be rich and nothing more. Maybe it was you, or maybe it was his attitude, you didn’t know. 
You rolled your eyes while reading another magazine title. ‘The new CEO of the Hwang Corporation has a fiancé!’ How thrilling you thought to yourself with the sarcasm. You were sure that your cousin, May, was very excited and enjoyed every mention of her. 
In your eyes May was just as spoiled as Hyunjin. She would always show how rich she was. She didn’t finish school and was unemployed. But yet, your family has always compared you to her. They were telling you how successful she is or how beautiful she was. And you were so sick and tired of it. It felt like you weren’t respected at all. You sighed quietly and were about to go to the kitchen to make some late dinner, when your phone suddenly rang. 
‘Hello?’ You answered it immediately. 
‘Oh, hello sweetheart. How are you?’ You heard your mother’s voice from the other side. ‘Have you seen the news?’ 
‘Yes mom, I have.’ You sighed. ‘Why are you calling? Is everything all right?’ 
‘Yes, yes darling. Everything’s fine. In fact, everything is perfect… your cousin, May, is doing a small garden party, and wanted me to ask you if you would come?’ 
‘Oh, right… what’s the occasion?’ 
‘She wanted to celebrate Hyunjin’s promotion of being a CEO’ Your mother said and you could feel how proud she was of him, even if he wasn’t related to her in any way. 
‘Yeah, nah… I don’t have time for May’s tea party, sorry mom…’ 
‘But you have to come! Y/N don’t act like a spoiled brat.’ There it was, your mother’s typical attitude. You rolled your eyes. ‘I’m sure that you don’t have anything important to do anyway… The party is on Friday. Don’t make me disappointed, again.’
‘Yes, sure mom… I will come.’ You sighed. You weren’t in a mood to hear all the bad things she was going to say if you wouldn’t agree. ‘Sorry mom, I have to go… We’ll see at the party.’ You hung up and threw your phone to the couch.  
You hated your family and they hated you, so the feeling was mutual. Ever since you could remember, your mother was a demanding yet cruel person. At least to you. You were the youngest daughter and had two older brothers, who were twins, and your mother loved them more than anything else. She thought that you would also be a son, as she wished. So when it turned out that instead of the third son, she would have had a daughter she wasn’t pleased. 
Your grandfather’s will added fuel to the fire. Your grandfather was the only person that actually cared about you. So when he died, you were devastated. He left the will, in which he concluded that the heir of his whole legacy, would be you. He left you all of his money and his businesses. He knew that you were the only one who would take the proper care of it. After all, he had prepared you to take over his role as a CEO of the Kwon Group. 
So yes, you were a successful business woman. You knew how to do business and the Kwon Group has grown to be irreplaceable and indestructible under your leadership. You carried out all of your grandfather’s plans and also some of yours as well and you were well-known in the business world. And for a twenty-seven year old that was a great achievement. 
But yet, your family didn’t respect you at all. After hearing the will of your grandfather all of them turned their backs on you. Your brothers were jealous, your mother was dissatisfied and the rest of the family just stopped talking to you. So you had everything, the money, the business, the title. But you felt lonely. 
—----------------- 
Friday night came soon. You didn't expect that the time could pass that quickly. In one second you were talking to your mom on the phone and at the other you were preparing yourself for the garden party. 
You put on a long, floral dress with a subtle corset that emphasised your slender figure. The neckline perfectly exposed your collarbones and showed your breasts sensually and subtly enough. You wore high-heels sandals on your feet. You did light make-up that emphasised your cheekbones and you put red lipstick on your lips. You looked into your reflection in the mirror and smiled to yourself. You were ready. 
You arrived at May's property just in time. A small garden party in her mind was at least for one hundred people. You put a smile number five on your face and went straight to the garden deciding that you will go back home after about two hours. You weren’t in the mood for the parties. 
You looked around. The garden was full of people. Some of them you knew, but some were new. You didn’t want to start a conversation with anyone, so you just stood at the back of the garden, next to the table with alcohol and snacks. You’ve decided to not talk to anyone. You just had to show yourself to your mother and May and you could go back to your penthouse. 
“Oh My God! Y/N you don’t know how happy I am to see you!” Suddenly you heard your cousin’s high, sugary sweet voice. “I’m really glad that you actually came.” 
“Yeah… Nice to see you May… And, nice party.” You said smiling at her. 
“Ah yeah, you know Hyunjin got promoted, so I decided that we have to celebrate that. Isn’t that great though?” 
“Yup, it is I guess…” You shrugged. 
“And also I wanted to thank you.” She continued. “If it wasn’t for you, Hyunjin wouldn’t get a promotion. His father wanted to promote his cousin…”
“What are you talking about, May?” You looked at her confused. 
“Well… your mom told us that you will sell all your shares to me and him so the Hwang Corporation will take over the Kwon Group? You know, so both companies will merge or something.” She shrugged. “That’s why Hyunjin’s father promoted him.” 
“Wait, what?! But I’m not going to sell you anything, May.” You said being in pure shock. “What the actual fuck is that? I have never said that I will do it.”
“But your mom said…” 
“But my mother is not a CEO nor does she work for me. I’ll repeat myself, just to be clear. I. Am. Not. Selling. Anything. To. You. And. Your. Fiancé.” 
“You don’t have to be rude, Y/N.” You’ve heard your mother’s voice behind you. “Look at poor May, her eyes are in tears now. How could you…?”
“How could I? What the fuck? Mom, you lied to May and Hyunjin and now you expect me to be kind?” You said angrily. “Look, I don’t know what you think you are, but I’m not going to sell my shares. Why did you say I will do it?”
“Because you should share with your family. Don’t be such a brat Y/N. May is your cousin.” 
“Well, I don’t fucking care! You have no right to decide whether I sell my shares or not!” You raised your voice, so a lot of people in the garden now looked at you and the scene. “I’m leaving, but believe me that I will take legal action against you if you try to do it again, do you understand?” You added and went straight to the exit. 
You were furious and didn’t expect that your mother would actually do something like that. She decided for you. She wanted you to lose all of your company and you couldn’t understand why. You called for your butler who was also a driver and sat on the ground. 
You felt tears forming in your eyes. You were angry but also hurt. You knew your mother didn’t love you, but that was too much. You sighed and wiped tears from your cheeks. Many emotions swirled inside you. You took a small pack of cigarettes from your purse and you lit one. 
The smoke from the cigarette filled your lounges. You started to cough. You weren’t a smoker and didn’t smoke at all. The small pack you kept in your purse was just for an emergency. An emergency like that. 
“I didn’t know you smoked.” You’ve suddenly heard the male voice behind you. You didn’t have to turn to know who he was. 
“You don’t know a lot about me and let’s leave it at that.” You rolled your eyes. 
“May I?” He asked and reached out for a cigarette. You gave him one. 
“What do you want Hyunjin?” You asked. “I’m not going to sell…”
“Don’t worry. I’ve heard your argument with your mom. I don’t want to buy your shares… actually I wanted to apologise.” 
“Apologise?” You blinked. 
“Yeah… I guess someone has to? I think that your mother crossed the line. Also, it's not true that I got promoted because she promised your shares to my father.” He said and looked at you with a corner of his eye. 
“Oh… thank you I guess?” You said but didn’t dare to look at him. 
“…And…” He started. “I would like to meet you tomorrow. Or next week if you want to have a free weekend. But I wanted to do some business with your company and…”
“Okay.” You sighed. “We can meet tomorrow… But if you try to make me sell my shares…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t.” He smiled at you. “Tomorrow then. Meet me at noon in Yongbok’s restaurant.” 
“Of course, your friend’s restaurant.” You rolled your eyes. “But okay… Tomorrow then.” You said and your car just arrived. “Say my goodbyes Hyunjin.” You got in your car and went to your penthouse. You started wondering what was the business that Hyunjin wanted to talk about. 
The next day you woke up early and unable to sleep a little longer decided to dress up and go for a walk before the meeting. You were a little bit nervous. You didn’t know what Hyunjin wanted from you. 
The time passed quickly and before you could even blink there was the time to meet Hyunjin at Yongbok’s restaurant. You went to the meeting and stood in front of it. You took a small mirror from your purse and fixed your make-up. Then you entered the restaurant. 
You looked around looking for him. He wasn’t there or you just couldn’t find him. You sighed and were about to leave when you heard a low voice. 
“Hello Y/N.” You’ve heard. “Long time no see, huh?” 
“Hi Yongbok.” You smiled at the man standing in front of you. The last time you’ve seen him was on May's birthday two years ago. You weren’t close friends, but he was always kind to you. Back then you spent almost the whole night together. “How have you been?” 
“I’ve been good, thanks. And please, call me Felix… all my friends call me that.” He smiled. “You came here to meet with Hyunjin, didn't you? Come, he’s waiting.” 
“Huh? Where? I couldn’t see him…” 
“Ah yes, because he’s at the VIP room.” Felix winked. 
You followed Felix to the VIP room where apparently Hyunjin was waiting for you. You entered the room and the door suddenly closed behind you. You jumped slightly at the sudden noise. 
“Hello Y/N. I’m glad that you actually came.”  You heard Hyunjin’s voice. The room was a little dark inside but you could see his silhouette. “Please, take a seat.”
“Why did you want to meet Hyunjin? And why are we sitting here, in the VIP room?” You asked, sitting in front of him. 
“Well… here we will have more privacy… and also, May is probably cheating on me so I wanted to check if that’s true.” He explained. 
“Okay… why is it connected with me?” You asked, lifting your eyebrow. 
“Well, she’s cheating with one of your managers so I thought that you should know.” He looked at you. “Also, you look pretty today.” He winked. You blinked twice and looked confused at him.  
“Look Y/N… in this room nobody in the restaurant can see us, but we can see them all. Come, sit next to me and I’ll show you…” He said and you did as he asked and sat next to him. Then he pulled back the blinds and you saw the whole restaurant below you. You looked at him and then at the restaurant and blinked. You didn’t expect that something like that was even possible. “See? There is May and your Manager.” 
“Yes… I see… But she shouldn’t know him. Seonghwa is the main finance and risk manager. I was actually going to promote him, he has access to all the information and…” Then it hit you. Your mother and May must have been planning to take over your company and with Seonghwa’s help they could easily do it. “I’m going to fire him…”
“Don’t act rashly, Y/N.” Hyunjin said and winced when he saw May kissing Seonghwa. “I’m going to break up with her though.”
“What should we do now?” You asked, looking at him. 
“Well I want revenge… After all, I proposed to her and she is cheating… She hates you, you know?”
“Tell me something I don’t know, Mr Hwang.” You rolled your eyes. 
“Uh, that sounds sexy…” He muttered under his breath. “Anyway, she hates you, so what if we go there together and act like we are a secret couple or something?” 
“I don’t know if I want to do that. I don’t like you…”
“And yet you came to meet me.” He winked. “Come on, please?” He looked at you with puppy eyes. 
“Ok, fine…” You agreed. “Let’s do this and then we’ll go our separate ways.” 
“As you wish.” He smiled. You both stood up and went straight to the main room where the regular guests were. Before you entered the door Hyunjin grabbed you by your waist and pulled closer to him. “Did I tell you that you smell beautiful?” He asked and you felt that your cheeks instantly changed their colour to red. 
“T-thank you��� You too…” You said quietly but he could hear you. He smiled at you and you both passed by your cousin and ex manager. May instantly spotted the two of you. 
“Hyunjin? Y/N what are you doing here?” She asked. 
“Oh, May… I haven’t seen you.” Hyunjin looked at her and smiled a little. “Who is your friend?” 
“Just a friend. What are you doing here with Y/N?” She looked confused. 
“Oh, right… Well, that’s a little awkward. I should have told you earlier but…”
“Are you cheating on me with her?!” She busted. 
“Yes.” Hyunjin said without any hesitation. “And you are cheating on me with him, don’t you?” 
“B-but Hyunjin… it’s not… I-I…”
“Please May, don’t, we are over, you know?” Hyunjin said calmly. “You can keep the ring though.” 
“And Seonghwa.” You finally spoke. “You are fired.” That was the only thing you said. 
“Can we?” Hyunjin asked you and the two of you left holding each other's hands. 
You were impressed how calm he was all the time. He didn’t hesitate at all. You looked at him with the corner of your eye. He was really handsome. He deserved the ‘prince’ title. You started wondering how it was possible that such a handsome man existed and was on earth among normal human beings. He definitely had some godly genes. 
You looked down, your hands were still intertwined. You smiled at yourself. It was a nice feeling after all. You focused on his long fingers and started imagining them inside you. Then you quickly shook your head to forget all the unwanted thoughts. 
“What are you thinking about?” He broke the silence which formed between the two of you.  
“N-nothing…” You stuttered. “You can stop holding my hand though…”
“I know, but I don’t want to.” He smiled a little. “Do you want to maybe grab a drink? I’m not sure if I want to go back to my house now…”
“Hm… okay. We can go to a bar or something.” You shrugged. Hyunjin smiled widely and the two of you went to the nearest bar. 
—-----------------
After a few drinks you felt a little tipsy. You spent a pretty good evening with Hyunjin. Apparently he was not a douchebag as you thought before. He was such a nice gentleman. You had fun with him. A lot of fun actually.
“Careful.” Hyunjin said as you tried to stand up from your seat. “Are you alright Y/N?” He asked. He didn’t drink as much as you. 
“Yeah, yeah. I’m fine…” You smiled at him. “I’ll order another drink… Do you want something too?”
“No, thank you, and I think that you had enough.” He said. “Let me drive you home.”
“But I don’t want to.” You whined.
“Come on Y/N.” He walked you out of the bar and took you to his car. His driver drove the two of you to your penthouse. 
The whole way to your home was silent. You didn’t want to say anything, not feeling much sober. Hyunjin also didn’t want to say a word. After all, you two weren’t even close. Little did you know that he wished you would. 
He helped you get out of his car and walked you to the front door of your penthouse. You looked at him in the elevator. His long, black hair was perfectly styled. He looked like he was out of the cover of the most exclusive magazine. 
The two of you stood in front of your door. 
“Are you going to open?” He asked. 
“Are you going to come in?” You answered the question with the question and opened the door. You invited him. He entered your apartment and scanned everything, then his eyes landed on you. He couldn’t take his eyes off you. 
“You want something to drink or…” You weren’t able to finish the sentence as Hyunjin's lips were suddenly on yours. You blinked before you fully gave in to the feeling. His lips were velvety and juicy. You didn't expect the kiss though. It wasn’t just a kiss it was aggressive and sensual at the same time. 
He didn’t give you time to process what actually was happening. You totally gave in. Your hands were all over his body and you started to unbutton his shirt. He smiled at you and pulled you closer to himself, kissing your neck. 
He pushed your hands away and pulled the belt from his pants to tie it around your wrists. Then he lifted you and found the way to your bedroom where he laid you on the bed and stripped himself. Then he leaned over you and smiled slightly. 
“Can I take your dress off, sweetheart?” He asked and when you nod he unbuttoned your dress and took it off of your body. He smiled widely as he found out that you didn’t wear any bra today. 
His hands grabbed your boobs and squished them gently. You let out a soft moan which made Hyunjin smile again. Then his lips attacked your nipples, biting them gently. 
Unable to touch him you started to wiggle under his touch. Your moans become louder and louder. He had all the control and he was in no hurry. 
“Hyunjin please.” You whined, moving your legs as you felt the wetness between them. 
“What do you want, sweetheart?” He asked licking his lips and looking straight in your eyes. 
“I want you.” You cried out. 
“Hm… not yet, sweetheart. Let me taste you first.” He answered and kissed you again. Then he moved from your lips across your whole body and licked his lips once again before he spread your legs wide open and kissed your clit. You let out a soft groan as his tongue started playing with you. He ate you out and led you to the orgasm that hit you instantly and hard. Then he pulled off. “You taste sweet.” He smiled, licking his lips. “Are you ready to feel me?” He asked as you nod and tried to calm your breathing. “Good girl.” 
Suddenly you felt his long fingers inside you. You let out a loud moan. He started moving his hand slowly and added another long finger inside you. His thumb was rubbing your clit. The only thing you could do, was wriggling and moaning. 
“Hyunjin, please!” You cried out. 
“I like when you beg.” He said and pulled off his hand. He put a condom on his member and slipped into you. You both left a loud groan. Hyunjin started to move inside you. He set a fairly fast pace and his movements were strong. You both didn’t last long and the orgasm hit the both of you at the same time. 
Hyunjin laid down next to you panthing and smiled. You looked at him and smiled back. You both didn’t need any words because your eyes said everything that had to be said. He pulled you closer and hugged you tightly. 
Since that night everything had changed.

This summer, you starred in the very successful MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – DEAD RECKONING PART ONE. How has it been returning to the franchise after all these years?
It’s always wonderful and exciting. I’ve been a part of this journey now for 10 years, for three films and there are different aspects of filming it. You’re pre-filming as you are prepping, you’re getting ready, you’re training, you’re living MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE. Then it’s the filming, which is wonderful, tiring, exhausting and exhilarating. And then there’s a long pause before you get to relive all of those feelings when you start promoting it. I’m excited for the fans to see it, being a huge MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE fan, but it’s also such a lovely feeling to be reminded of the journey that you’ve had because in my mind, I’m filming other things, I’m busy doing other things, so I get to sort of defibrillate those emotions again, which is just wonderful.
What do you love most about this franchise and action movies in general?
I really love building the world prior to shooting, understanding the character, getting into it. I love the training. I am fortunate to be surrounded by the best of the best when it comes to either learning to hold my breath, deep diving, jumping off a roof, martial arts, gun fighting. It is such a weird world to be thrown into, cause it’s not my world, it’s not what I do on a weekend. And the travel is a treat. 
International audiences got to know you for your role as the iconic Queen Elizabeth in THE WHITE QUEEN. How do you look back on this role?
When I was offered the role, it was such an overwhelming moment because it happened so fast. It took years to process what had happened. The process of casting took months. I remember going in and then them not calling me back and thinking that I didn’t get it. Then they called me back again three times, put me in a hotel room and then all of a sudden I got a phone call at nine in the morning and they were like ‘You’ve got the role. We’re going to color your hair. We’re going to have a table read with all the actors and you’re moving to Bruges in two days’.
I kind of work well with such pressure, but it takes time to sit down and take in what just happened. When I was receiving award nominations and I was in the room with all of the people who I look up to, I just thought ‘I don’t belong here. Am I where I should be? ‘It’s a slow domino effect of realizing how lucky I am. And today I sometimes think it was insane when that happened.
Would you describe the role of Queen Elizabeth as the role that set the tone for the future of your career?
Yes, definitely. I remember in the beginning thinking MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE was what set the tone. It’s always sort of back tracing, always wanting to give praise to all the opportunities that I’ve been a part of. But it is obviously what would help my career get to the level it is today. And also it’s the fact that you’ve been given that possibility. I am going to give myself a pat on the back today. I grabbed it and I ran with it. I did what I could with the opportunity at hand. It’s not just sitting back and being grateful, it is working with what you have been handed as well.
Since THE WHITE QUEEN, you’ve starred in many big productions and have become one of the leading ladies in the industry. How do you personally feel about this ‘title’? 
It is so funny, I was having a conversation with my husband this morning at breakfast, where we were talking about our lives and what we’re missing and what we long for. You said to me that I’m one of the leading ladies in the industry. And I think I do not identify as that. I feel very lucky with the roles that I’m offered, but I always seek further and am thinking ‘Why am I not getting the indie movies? Why am I not being offered this? I should create this myself. I need to open this world for myself. I’m missing things here.’ It doesn’t mean I’m not grateful for where I am, but I very rarely stand still. I am constantly moving and aspiring to do new things. Iprobably need to learn to sit back and think about how well I’m doing, grab the family and have time off as well.
This November we’ll be seeing you reprise your role in DUNE: PART TWO. What can you share with us about this sequel? 
I’m so ridiculously excited for it to come out. Everything that I have seen, the little clips when I’ve done additional dialogue recording, is phenomenal, it’s extraordinary. When we have to do some additional dialogue recordings we go into studio, so we get to see some footage. Greig Fraser has taken this film to other levels when it comes to cinematography. I don’t like lifting one role over the other, but I have to say the new characters that have come in, Christopher Walken, Léa Seydoux, Florence Pugh, Austin Butler, they are mind-blowing. It’s gritty and gory and Jacqueline West’s costumes and Donald Mowat’s makeup, they win every prize in my book.
How is it working in such an all star ensamble, with such big names from the industry?
I don’t value a film that I do because it is ejected with so much fame more than I do a film that has less. What I do like is meeting people who are inspiring and kind and fun. And being on a set with a lot of actors gives you the possibility to merge and to share anecdotes and stories with them if they’re open for it. You might not click with everyone, but I’m lucky enough that I did with everyone on DUNE. My point is, it doesn’t matter how famous people are or how big things are.
Before you got into acting, you had been dancing since an early age. How did your acting career actually come about?
I wasn’t a dancer, but I loved moving. My mother raised me to try things out. I did ballet, tap, dance, street, funk, jazz. I did a bridge course with four 70-year old ladies when I was 14 or 13 because I was very good at counting cards. I did basketball, gymnastics. There’s nothing I haven’t tried. And I think that open-mindedness always helped me in the world of acting. I’m never scared of trying things. I was never worried of making a foolout of myself. I’m not too worried as a person. I have always been a person of leisure in a sense that I ride the wave, I ride what is interesting for me at the moment.
I’ve never been eager to prove myself at something specific. I am a person who is not pushing myself down, but I think I was always just good enough and I never pushed that extra mile. Like, I was an Argentinian tango teacher. I was good, I wasn’t great. I didn’t go the extra mile. Acting I think is the only thing where I’ve just thrown myself in full-heartedly. 
What challenges you the most about acting?
When I was little, my morning routine and my mom’s was putting classical music on, usually Mozart. Cause she thinks that’s a good morning start for the brain. We would have a cup of tea and then we would do three card games. One was poker. We would play poker with matches and every time I was given a new hand, I was excited to see what the cards were going to be. Even to this day when I play cards, turning out my first turn of five hands or five cards is exciting. 
That’s what I feel about acting. The first time I get to walk into costume and see how they’re thinking, the first time I walk onto set to see how the set designers have done their job, meeting the actors, every moment with acting is a new hand dealt. That’s what I love a lot. Life between people is a constant dance, give and take.
You are also a mom. How hard is it being on set and balancing your career with your family life?
The privacy of life is so wonderful and I think what I have managed to do is to maintain it. This means there’s scheduling, there’s structure. Me and my family, we’ve found a really good formula to how it works. Life is life for everyone. It’s constant scheduling, whether you have a nine to five job or you work traveling the world.
Rebecca, which moment would you describe as the most defining moment of your life so far?
I think it’s the moment when I was offered the role in THE WHITE QUEEN. It took me out of my security blanket of Sweden. And it’s not that I was seeking to leave Sweden, but it opened up an entirely new world for me. Being given the lead in this BBC drama, a world that I could not even imagine what it would be like, and living abroad for so long created a new vision for me and why I kept on going. Before that, I wasn’t sure I was going to act. I’d done a Swedish film called A ONE-WAY TRIP TO ANTIBES, which I loved, but that was the only film I’d really done. So the role of Queen Elizabeth was a defining moment that my career was probably going to go in this direction.

Fluffy Feb Day 28- Comfort Sex [Greg Montgomery]
Tumblr media
Warnings: established relationship, praise kink, some dumbification, overstimulation, oral sex (both receiving), condescending Greg, p in v sex, comfort sex but make it a little kinky because February can be very tough and I know the girlies are struggling rn (I am one of the girlies)
Pairing: Greg Montgomery x blank slate Fem!Reader (no use of y/n)
Word Count: 4.2k
A/N: big love to @greg-montgomery for reading it over, and inspiring me to write this, and to @doctorstethoscope for putting on this amazing event❤️ this is the first thing I’ve written for a non CM character, so please let me know what you think! Happy fluffy feb, folks. That’s a wrap
“Hi, honey!” The predictable kiss to your cheek when Greg sets his briefcase down should make you feel better, but the smile you force makes him pause. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” The lie rolls off your tongue with ease. You’re fine. “How was your day?”
“It was Anderson’s last day, so Pete brought a few strippers into the office. Oh, and I finished up that divorce settlement that’s been dragging on.” Greg’s jacket comes off and he hangs it on the coat rack before moving toward the sofa. “My mother wants us to come over for dinner on Friday to discuss the charity luncheon. It’s for sick horses, or maybe women, I think; she either said ‘equestrian’ or ‘equality’, but the stripper music was really loud.”
“So a normal day, for you.” Your teasing falls a little flat, and he frowns as he sits down next to you on the sofa.
“I guess. Hey, what’s going on? Where’s that smile?” His coaxing doesn’t have the effect he’s looking for, you’re sure. Instead, your chin wobbles and you let out a huff of annoyance. “Talk to me. Come on.”
“Everyone’s just… everyone is an idiot,” you snap, catching yourself off-guard with the fury behind your words. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, it’s just, I feel like I’m the only person at work who has a brain and knows how to use it, and I feel like I’m doing everything, and now my boss is mad at me because I’ve made a few mistakes because I’ve been doing everyone else’s job, and now we have this luncheon to worry about for your mother’s horses, and-”
“Hey.” His voice is sharp, and one hand encircles your wrist. “Just breathe. Don’t apologize to me. I want you to tell me this kind of stuff, honey, you know that. Is anything else bothering you?”
The laundry list of things that have been annoying you seems meagre when you actually have to say it out loud. “I got stuck on the way to work behind a car that didn’t use its turn signal,” you mumble. “And the diner was out of sandwiches when I went there for lunch because they didn’t make enough to last all day. It’s all dumb stuff, I’m just tired.”
“It’s not dumb. If it’s bothering you, it’s not dumb,” Greg promises. “What can I do to help? Just say the word.”
You huff again, ignoring the way his lips twitch at the sound. “I don’t know. I just feel like you and I are the only people in the world who have two brain cells to rub together, and I’m tired of it. I spend every single day thinking for everyone and fixing things they should fix, and doing things they should be doing.”
Greg puts one arm around your shoulders, pulling you in sideways. “I’m sorry, sweetheart,” he murmurs, dragging his lips against your cheek in a long kiss. “You know what I think?”
“That I should get promoted? Or at least, get in less trouble?” You grumble, allowing him to pull you close. “Good luck with that.”
“Well, yes,” he agrees after a second. “Of course. But I can’t do that. What I can do is, I can turn your pretty little brain off for a while.”
Oh. That’s not what you were expecting to hear, but it sounds nice. “I just don’t want to think,” you mumble, playing with one of the buttons on his shirt. “It’s too much.”
“I know it is, baby. Come on, it’s okay,” he soothes. One of his hands slides down your side, seamlessly unbuttoning your pants. “Can I? Let me take care of you.”
That’s the magical sentence, the key to the kingdom, and you nod in answer. Your eyes start to flutter shut when his fingers toy with the waistband of your panties, but you force yourself to keep them open so you can look at him.
“I’ll take care of you,” he murmurs again, leaning in to line your neck with kisses. “No need to think. You’re mine, remember? And I take good care of what’s mine.”
It’s true, he does, and you can already feel yourself going fuzzy around the edges when he circles your clit with one finger. “Mm…”
You feel his smile against your skin, that self-satisfied smirk he wears whenever he turns you to putty. “That’s it. Just take it, just like that. My good girl’s already getting so wet for me, so perfect.”
Greg won’t push a finger in until you’re dripping; you know that from experience. One of his fingers keeps circling your clit, and he uses his other hand to push down your shirt and bra, giving him access to thumb at your nipple.
“I’ll, I can take it off,” you offer, already thinking about sliding off your shirt and unclasping your bra, and Greg sinks his teeth into the skin of your shoulder in warning.
“I’ll take it off when I want it off,” he promises. “Stop trying so hard. You’re mine, I’m in charge here. You’re going to get what I give you, yeah? You’ve got a safeword. If you aren’t saying it, you’re taking what you get.”
“Y-yeah.” Your breath hitches through the word when he pinches your nipple, his finger rubbing you faster with more and more pressure as the seconds pass. 
His hand moves down slightly, and he groans into your ear when he swipes a finger through your folds to discover how wet you are. “That’s it. Is this turning you on, hm? You like it when I take good care of my princess?” One finger moves back to rub at your clit, lubricated with your arousal.
When he pulls his head away from your shoulder, you bury his face in his neck. It hardly muffles your moans, or your whines of, “Gonna, I need to, please,” against his skin.
“Come for me,” he coaxes. “You don’t have to ask, it’s okay. All over my hand, just like that, go ahead.”
The permission is like a release all on its own, and you moan unabashedly into him as you come, shaking and writhing against him as you grind down onto his hand. 
His finger stays steady against you, working you through your orgasm while you whimper into his neck. When he doesn’t stop playing with your clit, you pull back with a soft groan.
“Was good,” you sigh out, and Greg kisses you sweetly without his rhythm faltering. “I’m- oh, I’m good, baby, thank you.”
“Very good,” he agrees, his voice soft and husky against your lips. “I’ve got such a good girl. You can come again, good girl, I know you can.”
“Greg…” You squirm under him, pleasure mounting quickly as your first orgasm starts to build into your second without letting you come down first. 
He shushes you, kissing your neck again as you come undone on his fingers a second time, your orgasm cresting like a soft wave. “You can take it, just like that. So wet for me, sweetheart, so perfect.” The praise kisses your ears as he kisses you again, finally, blissfully withdrawing his hand as you take a deep breath.
Several deep breaths later, you start to return to yourself. The orgasms weren’t fireworks, or mind-blowing. They were good, of course, but they washed over you in a gentle wave of pleasure rather than making you cry out or making your eyes roll back in your head.
“Ready for more?” He asks with another slow kiss, and you pull back to blink at him.
“More?” You echo, and Greg chuckles at that.
Standing up off the couch, he offers you one hand and you take it. “Yes, more,” he promises, leading you toward the bedroom. “My girl hasn’t had enough yet. I want to hear you beg.”
The bed is soft beneath you when he lays you back, skimming both hands down your eyes before slowly- painfully slowly- tugging your pants and underwear down until they hit the floor. “I want to taste you,” you mumble, and he grins.
Something about sucking him off, having the most intimate part of him under your control, never fails to drive you crazy. Some days, he comes home to find you already on your knees because you crave the taste of him so badly. Although, ever since one incident where you’d nicked the head of his dick with one of your teeth, he has a new… approach.
“You think you can take it? Already, baby, but you need to be careful,” he warns. “Remember, my good girl knows how to listen. You can unzip me.”
His zipper comes down so fast that it’s almost comical, and when he gives permission you push his pants and boxers off while he discards his shirt. 
“I want it.” Your voice is breathless as you eye his hard cock, hard enough to be standing up when he lays back on the bed.
“I know you do,” he says, his voice equal parting soothing and husky. “Okay, greedy girl. You remember what to do?”
This part always frustrates you; the way he talks like you’ve never blown him before, like you’ve never had him whining for your touch. “I know,” you huff, and he wraps one hand in your hair to steady it against the back of your head.
He continues talking like he hasn’t heard you. “First, you can grip it. Stroke nice and slow, get me ready. Stick out your tongue, that’s it. Look how fast my girl is learning.”
You’re perched between his thighs, one hand gripping his hairy leg while you take his cock in your other hand and stroke it. Nice and slow, just like he said, and when you see a bead of pre-cum your tongue slides out of your open mouth of its own volition. 
“I’m ready,” you insist, and Greg twists his hand in your hair just tight enough to hurt. “I am! I’m ready, I can do it.”
“You can do it if you can follow instructions,” he corrects you. “Tap the head on your tongue, sweetheart. Let me feel that mouth.”
“Could feel more of my mouth,” you mumble, but he ‘tsk’s at that until you follow his direction.
“Not yet, I can’t,” he sighs while he watches you, sympathetic. “Now, maybe if my greedy girl weren’t a safety hazard, we could do this however you want. But for now, you’re listening to me.”
You want to complain about that, but then he’s got his free hand steadying your jaw. “Open up more,” he murmurs, and your jaw drops obediently. “Good girl. If I feel anything other than that tongue and those pretty lips, I’m going to edge you until you cry. And we don’t want that, do we?”
He uses the hand tangled in your hair to shake your head for you. “No, we don’t.” He answers his own question, then slowly pushes into your mouth. “Just like that, good girl,” he praises. “You can stroke the rest of it, for now. You feel so good, I don’t want to finish too soon.”
Your eyes flutter shut as you listen to his instructions, bobbing your head only as much as he allows you to. Drool escapes your mouth, making the glide of your hand on his cock smoother, and you shift with excitement when you hear him sigh in pleasure.
You’re doing it. You’re being his good girl, following his instructions so perfectly, and if you could live out the rest of your days with your head between his thighs and his hands holding you in place, you surely would. It’s blissful, the familiar weight of him in your mouth, grounding you.
Time passes- how much, you can’t say- and Greg lets you get closer, take a little more of him. He even lets you suckle at his sac at one point before guiding you back up to his cock and thrusting shallowly; something he does so rarely that it feels like a reward for you when he does. He pumps into your mouth, once, twice, and you can feel him twitch against your tongue before he pulls out completely.
“Didn’t finish,” you complain, and he shuts you up by pulling you closer up on the bed with the hand in your hair and kissing you.
“I know, baby,” he soothes when you’ve broken apart, discarding your shirt and bra to the floor. “I know. But you got to taste, and now I can make my girl feel so good, can’t I?”
“Fuck me.” It’s half demand, half plea, and Greg is having none of it.
“Not yet.” He lays you back on the bed and gets between your thighs, kissing a line down your neck. When you whine with impatience, two of his fingers nudge your lips. “Suck on those, sweetheart. You can be good for a little longer.”
He’s right, you can be, so you eagerly suck the digits into your mouth as his lips caress your breasts, then your stomach, then your upper thighs while he slides down the bed. “Mm,” you protest around the fingers when you spread your legs for him, and he doesn’t immediately dive between them, instead pulling the fingers out of your mouth and tracing your nipple with saliva.
Sucking his cock has gotten you worked up again, and you’re ready for one of those mind-numbing, toe-curling orgasms that only he can give you. Luckily, he acquiesces after a long moment, wrapping his lips around your clit to suck. Hard.
His tongue pushes into you, curling and probing perfectly, and he pulls off after a minute just to murmur, “Come when you’re ready,” and then he’s back on you with fervour. When you do come, your back arches and you cry out and this time you definitely see fireworks, but he’s still not stopping. “Again,” he insists, panting into your skin as his tongue flicks against your clit and you moan.
Both of your hands are tangled in his hair by the time he pulls away, and by then you’ve got no idea how many times you’ve finished. Orgasm has blurred into orgasm, one continuous stream of pleasure that has you blinking away tears and breathing heavily when Greg comes up for air. His chin is wet, his eyes sinfully dark, and he’s still got a stupid smirk on his face, and if you could possibly come again you would probably do it just from looking at him.
“Just a few more,” he promises you, fisting his cock. It’s an angry purple, the bedsheet under him spotted with pre-cum, and you moan aloud at the idea of him enjoying eating you out so much that’s turning him on. His promise of ‘a few more’ doesn’t even register, at first. You’re drunk off the feel of his tongue, unable to form a sentence if you tried, and you need him inside you now.
“Please.” It’s a whine, and Greg grins at your needy pout while he kisses you. “Please, I need it.”
“I know you do,” he whispers. “Can you ride me? Can my princess handle that?”
You shake your head, no, you can’t handle it. Your legs are trembling and achy, you’ve come too many times, and you couldn’t move right now if you tried.
Instead of getting frustrated, Greg just chuckles while he pushes your legs back open. “No?” He teases, pressing the head of his cock against your hole. He pushes the head in slightly, then pulls it out just to hear your lewd moan at the loss. “Did I make my good girl so dumb she can’t even ride me? I’ve been so nice to you, sweetheart, and you can’t help your man out?”
Tears prick at your eyes as you nod furiously. “M sorry,” you gasp out, willing your legs to spread further for him. His thumb grazes your clit again and you flinch, overstimulated. “It’s, it’s too much, I can’t.”
“Don’t be sorry, baby.” His grin doesn’t falter as his thumb speeds up, pressing directly on the bundle of nerves until your eyes roll back and your back arches off the bed. “I’ll forgive you if you can come again, how’s that sound?”
It sounds impossible, but the way he’s giving you no reprieve is starting to make you shake under him all over again. “Can’t, I can’t, please!”
“I think you can.” He presses his cock into you again, hardly an inch. “You love it when I do this, you love being my dumb baby. You beg for it. Soak my cock, get it nice and wet so I can fuck you.”
Your whimper almost breaks the sound barrier, you swear. Greg’s thumb doesn’t slow down or break the rhythm at all when you try to squirm away, and he pins you down with one hand on your abdomen. “Please, please, please, please!”
It’s hard to tell what you’re begging for now, but he doesn’t care. His tongue pokes out in concentration, staring down at your pussy as you clench around the head of his cock. When his eyes dart up, connecting with yours, you shatter.
It’s like falling off a skyscraper, becoming a firework, a train of pleasure colliding with your body as you howl. Words escape you and your mouth falls open in a silent scream when he finally, blissfully, pushes in the rest of the way. You can’t focus on him or the way he cups your cheek or the words he mumbles, you can’t focus on anything except the slick drag of his cock inside you.
“Knew you could do it,” he pants, squeezing your jaw a little. “So pretty when you come for me, baby.”
“Greg, Greg, Greg-” You’re gasping out his name with each punctuated thrust, the only word in your brain now. You can’t even remember your own name, you’re so fuzzy.
“Did I get my girl all stupid?” He croons, grinning down at you with that sinisterly innocent smile. “Oh, I did. Look at those pretty eyes. All glazed over, not a single thought in there. You like my cock that much, princess? Hm?”
“Mhm, mm,” you moan behind closed lips, and you hear his chuckle.
“I thought so. You like it when I treat you good? When I rub that clit until you can’t breathe?” Your sharp inhale follows the sound of him spitting onto his hand, reaching down to roll circles around the swollen bud. “I know you need it, baby, you can do it.”
There are tears streaming down your face now, and you hardly know when they started. You’re too overwhelmed with pleasure, you can hardly stand it, you don’t know how much longer you can go. You don’t want to stop, that’s the only thing you know. He’s in charge, like he always tells you. He knows best, you’re his dumb baby, and you can take whatever he gives you, you can.
“That’s my good girl,” he coos when you don’t try to argue. “Just like that. I’m thinking for you, remember? You’re all mine. You’re going to let me keep playing with this pretty pussy, aren’t you?”
Swallowing a sob, you can only nod as he kisses you again. You let him invade your mouth as you grip his back, leaving scratches that are sure to burn but he only hisses in pleasure. You’re being so good that you’re almost dizzy with the thought of it, so good for him, he’s mumbling into your mouth that you’re so fucking perfect and it makes you shudder in pleasure. 
It can’t be possible for your body to come again, but it also shouldn’t be possible for one man to be so perfect, and you think that Greg can find a way to do anything. When you start to feel that familiar twist in your belly you whine, and he pulls his hand away, and you don’t know if you’re disappointed or relieved.
“Can I come?” He asks, breathless, just what you’ve been waiting for, and he places his hand on your stomach. “Right here, can I fill you up?”
The sigh of relief he lets out when you nod is orgasmic in its own right. He thrusts again, once, twice more, and then you can feel him flooding your insides like he promised, filling you up with him. “Good girl,” he gasps out as he ruts through it, crushing his lips to yours as you kiss back hazily, messily.
Instead of collapsing on the bed when he pulls out, he immediately moves back down your body and mouths at your hip. “I’m gonna clean you up,” he says, gazing up at you as his lips trail lower and he sucks a mark on your inner thigh. “One more, on my tongue. My good girl can do it.”
Truthfully, you don’t know if you can. You feel weighed down, boneless, and the idea of ever coming again sounds impossible. But you’re good for him, you’re his good girl, you’re his, so you just nod. 
“Eyes on me,” he whispers, and he keeps his gaze locked on you as- fuck, as his tongue pushes inside you and curls, lapping up the taste of himself before it can leak out of you. Greg moans against you, into you, and as soon as you can feel your arms again you place one hand in his hair. It’s damp with sweat, the locks sliding through your fingers, and when you tangle your fingers in it to keep a grip on him he only licks harder.
Your hips rock up off the bed to meet his mouth, and his nose bumps against your clit as he tries to get even closer to you. Once he’s satisfied with cleaning his cum out of you he pulls back, still holding eye contact with you, and you see his Adam’s apple bob as he swallows.
You must have died, several orgasms ago. This must be heaven.
Greg latches back onto your clit in a frenzy, sucking hard as he rolls his tongue over the bud, and a fresh stream of tears escapes you when you sob, yanking his hair hard, chanting yes, yes, yes, and please, Greg, fuck, as you come undone on his tongue like you have so many times tonight.
His tongue laves over you as you come down, an unspoken apology to your overused pussy, and he pulls away after you whine softly. Your hands release his hair and he moves up the bed, kissing you gingerly.
This might be your favourite part; lying in his arms in the afterglow, with no need to do or say or think. “Hi, sweetheart,” he murmurs once you’ve settled into him. “You did so well for me. How’s my best girl doing?”
Words haven’t returned to you yet; maybe they never will. When he wraps one arm around your shoulders, you roll over on your side to nestle your head in your favourite spot between his jaw and his collarbone and hum with contentment.
“So perfect,” he praises, and you turn your face into the crook of his neck. He loves to praise you, especially afterwards, and you both know how badly you want- no, need- to hear it, but it still gets you embarrassed sometimes. “You took me so well, sweet girl. I’m so proud of you.”
“Sorry.” Your voice is raspy, your throat dry, and your words are muffled against him. “Couldn’t ride you, Greg. ‘M sorry.”
“Hey,” he pulls back just enough to kiss the side of your head, “No apologizing. You could never let me down, angel. You’re so perfect for me, all the time.” When you relax back against him, he continues speaking, and you can hear the grin in his voice. “Honestly, after all that, I’ll be impressed if you can even walk.”
There might be a challenge in his tone, or maybe you’re just imagining it, because when you hmph indignantly he lets out a tranquil sigh and starts stroking soothing lines down your back with the hand wrapped around you. “Alright, sweetheart, let’s not find out tonight. You deserve some rest. Do you need anything else?”
After a moment, you inhale deeply. You’re surrounded by the scent and feel and voice of the man you love. The taste of him is still in your mouth, and you’ve got a perfectly-captured image in your mind’s eye of the beautiful smile he gave you before he kissed you. You’ve got everything you need, and you shake your head to tell him that.
“Alright. You’ll let me know if you need anything, okay?” He waits for you to nod. “I love you.”
“Love you more,” you mumble. You want to hear more of him, you want him to speak until his is the only voice you recognize, so you ask the only thing you can think of short of asking him to read you the dictionary. “How was your day?”
A smile pulls at his lips, and you can see it in your head when you feel his jaw shift above you. It’s that lopsided smile that always makes you want to kiss him silly, you just know it is. “It was good. It was Anderson’s last day, and we had a party. How was your day, princess?”
You sigh against his skin, relaxing into his embrace like it’s a warm cloud you could sink into and never emerge from. “It was perfect.”

ANON WHO BROUGHT UP LUCAS THANK U I WAS ITCHING TO TALK AB HIM BUT I WAS SOOO SCARED BC i didn’t know if it was a safe space free of lumis or not…
my ig feels kinda curated to show me content of him there’s so much of his stans there compared to tiktok and the specific posts im getting is like “dreamies winning for smoothie!! …lucas in the back🥺💔” OR “dejun introducing lucas for his stage🥺🥺” SHUUTTT UPPPPP
it’s especially aggravating when there are situations in the industry that were far less impactful than his allegations the ones i’m thinking of specifically is soojin ex gidle as well as chuu have not promoted on music shows BUT WITHIN LIKE TWO MONTHS OF HIM COMING BACK HE GETS TO HAVE HIS SOLO DEBUT AND PERFORM??? and don’t even get me started on seunghan. what the fuck do you mean ot6 siren gtfo
i gave up on editing and was making shitposts on my tiktok praying for the downfall of sm ent because it seems they have a 7 member group curse DIEEE!!! (respectfully..! i lov u lee donghyuck i hope u can be free from the sm shackles in due time)
HSDJDKSKS don’t worry this is never a safe space for him and his fan i rlly do not like that guy and you’ll never catch me praising him.. anyways i got some stuff to say too but it will probably be the only time i’ll speak on it here because i don’t like giving that man attention 😶‍🌫️
bro i’m not surprised that you’re getting that stuff because when i tell you 99% of nctzens on insta are all lucas fans it actually shocked me 😭😭 i remember once commenting smth like “we don’t want him back” and i got sent death threats like OVER DOZEN???? MR CANT FIND THE BEAT?? 😭😭😭 tiktok is really 50/50 with a side that’s here for him and another side that doesn’t like him. the only platform i know where it’s mostly people disliking him is twitter but even then he got a pretty large following on there that is LOUD and ANNOYING
and you’re so right about that ITS SO CRAZY TO ME how SM just wouldn’t let go off him like they were so adamant on keeping him in the company for some reason and have been soft launching him for a good year trying to get the public to ease a bit, (the amount of concerts he’s attended to make his presence known.. you’re not slick SM) and i just don’t get what value he has to that company. he doesn’t bring the talent like he literally invented the term dozen because he dozen do anything right, he doesn’t bring the visuals, you can argue that he brings fans because he got a very huge SEA and latin (?) fan population that is veryyyy loud but even then the number of haters is much bigger, china literally hates him and korea barely tolerates him.
they didn’t hesitate to put seunghan on hiatus and are literally erasing him from the group in real time with the ot6 siren ver it’s crazyyy, all because he got his privacy invaded and did acceptable teen things? they kicked that SNSD member out for starting her own clothing brand and i’m sure they blacklisted her too, jaejoong got blacklisted too, soojin and chuu got kicked out, but the guy who has literal criminal allegations (that he basically admitted to himself) gets a whole pity sob documentary as well as rebranding as a soloist? chris lee is the biggest dick rider ever for this and it will never make sense to me😭
i honestly don’t like talking about him or mentioning him because 1. any type of publicity can be good publicity to him 2. arguing with his fans is useless and tiring because they will NOT change their mind 3. his face and existence annoys me so yeah i don’t like mentioning him because what’s the point hate-watching his content like that’s still publicity for him
but yeah if i find out any of his fans follow me i’ll literally block, even if you dont follow me and i find you’re his fan i block 💀 NOT A SAFE SPACE FOR LUMIS PLEASE LEAVE BEFORE I HAVE TO BLOCK U MYSELF 😭🙏🏽

Kenshin’s Special Story
Tumblr media
My Jealousy is Eating Me Up!
One fine, calm morning―
Kenshin: "A thank-you letter?"
Mai: "Yep. From the fabric shop."
Before leaving for work, I showed Kenshin the letter I got yesterday.
Mai: "He asked me to tailor a kimono for his daughter."
Mai: "Since she's the poster girl, I put my heart and soul into making something good to promote her."
Mai: "I heard it was more popular than expected, and the store is booming."
And in return for that, they would supply me with high-quality fabrics in the future.
Tumblr media
Kenshin: "What you make has the power to attract people."
Mai: "Really? Thank you."
(I'm so glad Kenshin praised me.)
He strokes my head as my heart swells with joy.
Kenshin: "You promised to meet them after work today. Let's go see that shop later."
Mai: "Thanks, but are you sure? You might get bored."
Kenshin: "There's no way I will ever get bored around you."
Kenshin: "Besides, I want to see the kimono you made with my own eyes, too."
Mai: "Kenshin... Nn..."
We kiss, and Kenshin smiles gently.
Mai: "Thanks, Kenshin. I'm looking forward to it!"
Kenshin: "Yeah. But be careful not to get too excited, or you'll be in trouble later."
Mai: "???"
(Why did he say it like that?)
I tilt my head back, and he hugs my waist.
Kenshin: "I won't be able to hold you when I get home if you're too tired, will I?"
Mai: "----!"
His seductive whisper set my cheeks on fire for a while.
Tumblr media
After work, we went to town before sunset and found the shop crowded with people, many of whom were men.
Kenshin: "The clothes you made are for women. Why are there so many guys here?"
Mai: "Yeah, I wonder why..."
Then―
???: "Oh! Lord Kenshin and Lady Mai!"
Mai: "Hm?"
I look over and see that my fellow seamstress has just come out of the store.
Mai: "Are you here to shop too, by any chance?"
Seamstress: "Yes! The kimono you made is very popular."
Mai: "Hehe, thank you. But there are more male customers than I thought."
Seamstress: "Yes, those customers are here to see the rumored poster girl instead of buying clothes."
Mai: "You mean the daughter of the owner?"
Seamstress: "Yes. She's already pretty from the start, but your kimono has made her even more popular."
(I see, so that's what this is about.)
I met her several times, and she is indeed a beautiful person.
I feel proud of myself because I worked hard to make a kimono that would suit her.
Kenshin: "Mai, is that her?"
After saying goodbye to my fellow seamstress, Kenshin approaches me.
The daughter of the fabric store is just rearranging the items at the storefront.
Mai: "Yup, the kimono she's wearing now is the one I made."
Kenshin: "Oh?"
He narrows his eyes and looks at the woman in the lovely kimono.
My colleague is right. The bright blue color suits her better than I imagined.
Tumblr media
Kenshin: "I see. She's even more beautiful than I had expected."
(Excuse me?)
I look up at him with wide eyes.
His eyes are still on the poster girl.
(When he said "beautiful," was he referring to the kimono I made for her or the girl?)
Kenshin: "What are you doing, Mai?"
He pulls my hand, and I suddenly come to my senses as he looks at me with his different-colored eyes.
Kenshin: "Buy whatever you like. If you can't decide, take them all home."
Mai: "That's way too much."
With a nagging feeling in my chest, I vaguely smile and squeeze Kenshin's hand back as we leave.
Tumblr media
Later that night, my heart remained clouded.
I tried my best not to show it on my face, but―
Kenshin: "Mai."
Mai: "Kyaah!"
In the blink of an eye, he pushes me down onto the futon and looks at me with his two-colored eyes.
Kenshin: "You've been acting weird. Are you worried about something?"
Mai: "I'm not worried."
Kenshin: "Oh, you're going to lie to me now?"
Mai: "Mmn..."
My heart starts racing, and my skin is on fire as he takes my lips with the help of his tongue.
Kenshin: "Say, Mai. Did someone make you sad? Tell me, and I'll cut them down for you."
Mai: "Then you have to cut me for that."
Kenshin: "What?"
Kenshin furrows his eyebrows and stares at me, trying not to miss a single word.
Mai: "No one is to blame. I'm just wondering if the word 'beautiful' you said earlier was a compliment to the kimono or the girl."
Tumblr media
Kenshin: "................"
Kenshin: "Of course, that was a compliment to the kimono you made."
Mai: "----!"
(I see, so it was a compliment to the kimono.)
Good thing I asked him. I could finally clear up my feelings, but―
Kenshin: "Are you jealous because you thought I was complimenting her?"
Mai: "Well, she's really pretty."
He sighs as I ramble with excuses.
Kenshin: "How can you still be jealous of others when I love you so much?"
Kenshin: "You know as well as I do that I would never look at anyone but you."
Mai: "Mmm..."
Kenshin seals my lips with a kiss, seemingly smiling.
He slowly inserts his tongue into my mouth, tickling it with more subtle movements than usual.
Mai: "Haa... ahh..."
I finally caught my breath and saw him looking at me with burning eyes.
Kenshin: "Remember this, Mai."
Tumblr media
Kenshin: "You're the only person in this world I would call beautiful."
Mai: "Ah..."
Words of love flowed into my ear, and I felt a tingle in the pit of my stomach.
I melted into the comfort he was giving me while still lying on the futon.

I’m so sick of her 😣😔
Everyone is. It's a mystery why anyone puts up with her or even humours her enough to do these phony interviews as if she's worth their time in the first place. Then again you will note that when this happens it's with her friends not any large publication like Elle magazine. You'd think if she were worth anything at all she'd be interviewed as some level of expert for a business publication or fashion but the only time this has ever happened was years ago for Cosmo when she taught people how to be an alcoholic but stay healthy. How is this woman promoted as so "iconic" when she's done nothing of note? It's tiring to watch her keep getting praise for having done nothing and on top of that lying about what she has done.

10 Anti LO Asks
(Note: All of these asks are before episode 206 (Season 2 finale) so some may be dated.) 1. do RS defenders realize the issue is in the fact that, despite being a woman who claims to be a progressive feminist marketing herself to be making a progressive, feminist "reclaiming" of mythology, her work and actions being indistinguishable from awful male writers is?? really bad?? the "if the roles were reversed" argument is to point out her and her work is really no different from the same misogynistic, bigoted men and their stories that she and her fans claim she and LO are better then.
2. The thing is an age gap isn't the actual issue, the issue is the fact Persephone was made A TEENAGER who looks/acts even younger and even in comic it was found gross, THAT's why people were and still are grossed out by it and find Rachel's insistences "subverting it" questionable at best, and an outright lie at worse. This especially is more pointed with the timeskip, because Persephone still looks/acts the same as she did at 19, so it just makes you wonder WHY Rachel made her 19 to begin with.
3. Ok but it IS important to point out how the double standards within LO and RS and especially the fact she is a rich white woman who wants the praise of being progressive and feminist yet her actual actions and story do not show that. We also have to point this out because of how she and her fans weaponize this to say any legitimate criticism is merely "hating women", over the fact she DOES promote and do harmful things other creators (like queer and BIPOC creators) dont get to "grow" from
4. I'm sorry if this comes across as racist. That is not my intention. I hate the human skin colors Rachel Smythe uses. They look unnatural. Like paper grocery bags or potato wedges from KFC.
5. If 10 years passed, shouldn't Dionysus already be born? Semele died? I feel like RS forgot about a whole Olympian God. 🤨
6. I'm reading the comments on Rachel's insta, with the fast pass showing the pink nymth, and the comments speak volumes. Everyone's questioning if it's another lover, or someone is trying to seduce Hades, or Kronos is possessing him (??), Some fans even talk about getting anxiety/blood pressure spikes. Wow... It's almost as if a trama bonded relationship isn't stable. It's almost as if Hades has been unfaithful to past lovers. As if there's a pattern here that makes the readers want to blame the nymth (who has NO voice lines yet, btw. Their attacking her for putting her hand out (smug) and showing side boob (telling her to cover up? That's ironic)) rather than Hades himself. You know. The other person in their relationship. And don't even tell me they're not official yet, I'm tired of beating around the bush, Persephone is literally the queen of the underworld. 
7. Do LO fans know that flipping out over even potential other women in Hades' life, despite the fact the whole selling point is knowing Hades and Persephone ends up together, only gives the impression they're not confident in their relationship to begin with? Like yall know they end up together, there's absolutely no reason to flip out at the inclusion of a random woman other than they knowingly or not think the couple is too weak too stand on their own (also misogyny but that's a different convo)
8. Not to be a nerd or anything, but I think LO completely mixed up Kronos and Chronos. The former is the titan of harvest and leader of said titans, while the latter is the personification of time. Similar names, but distinctly separate entities.
-----SA Discussion Below-----
9. Yeah it's hard to say RS is a staunch supporter of SA victims and takes the topic seriously/handles it with care when she made Arion and the result of his birth a child support "joke" when the actual mythology is Demeter being violently r*ped. It's honestly disgusting the fans defend it as "just a joke' while claiming the series stands up for victims. No, it stands up for CERTAIN victims, the rest, what, "deserved" it? Especially Demeter because she's not their "precious cinnamon roll"?
10. The issue with the SA plot too is she uses it to push P towards Hades, but then also can’t just have them jump into bed because of the obvious barriers there from the assault, so she’s basically stuck in this bizarre juggling act where she wants to be praised as this “serious writer who tackles serious issues” yet does nothing because she just wants to draw them boning but can’t because she doesn’t know how to handle SA & its trauma without ignoring it outright, so she doesn’t tackle it anyway!

You do realize that Cole only posted that breakup post after Lili did an interview about the breakup which she then said was taken out of context and said she wouldn’t talk about a “breakup” leading people to believe they were still together. Cole posted to clear up all of the rumors and get it over with. Not to mention he praised her in the post so he did nothing wrong… I’m tired of people being so hypocritical. They can both talk about their lives (and the relationship and subsequent breakup are part of their lives). You, zumpie, Milly, and all of the other toxic people in this fandom need to get over it already.
It was a long ass time ago but if I recall correctly…
She didn’t do an interview about the breakup. She did it for her movie that is about heartbreak. She was taken out of context for a clickbait headline. Because there was speculation about the breakup. She didn’t want to comment on it, she was promoting a movie. But it was apparent to fans they weren’t together. The main reason he made that post was to dictate timelines, control narrative and gaslight. So yeah I guess you’re right he did it “to clear up some rumors”. And it was calculated as fuck.
I think a lot of these blogs were “over it” but now 3 years later Cole needed attention for some reason. And well he got it.

AF2 Arcana Academia: Dante
Tumblr media
Dante: [Now that La Primavera is over, spring brings more new changes to Regalo]
Dante: [Arcana Academia]
Dante: [Sparked by the lord’s plan to turn the island into a center for learning, Arcana Famiglia aims to establish a school]
Dante: [With a goal to promote learning among the citizens]
Dante: [Today, everyone in the Family is once again busily fulfilling their young Donna’s wishes]
~*Scene: Hallway*~
Felicita: ?
~*Scene: Study*~
Dante: Sea and weather conditions, piloting…shipbuilding…
Dante: Hm, I suppose that’s a good start
Felicita: Dante? What’s all this research for?
Dante: Hello, Ojou-san. I thought I’d do some preparations for when the Academia opens
Felicita: Preparations?
Dante: Yes. I won’t know what aspect of sailing people will be interested in, so I need to prepared for anything
Dante: Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if our students came all this way for a teacher who can’t teach?
>You really think of everything
>That’s just like you, Dante
Dante: They’re all so eager to learn, so I can’t let them down
Dante: It’s nothing deserving of praise. Just the natural thing to do as a teacher
Felicita: Haha, that’s just like you. Don’t push yourself though
Dante: Come on, this is nothing
Dante: But, I appreciate the concern. Thank you, Ojou-san
Felicita: Yeah. Good luck, then
~*Scene: Hallway*~
(*door closes)
Felicita: …I wish everyone would put in that much effort. But maybe I’m asking too much
Felicita: Dante’s amazing… I can’t slack off either
~*Scene: Hallway*~
Felicita: I haven’t seen Dante since then. I wonder where he went
Pace: Huh, Ojou? Why are you wandering around here? Are you looking for something?
Debito: Could it be me you’re looking for, Bambina?
Felicita: Oh, no
Debito: Man, that’s cold
Pace: Then are you looking for snacks?
Felicita: I’d just go to the dining room for those
Felicita: I’m looking for Dante
Debito: Shouldn’t he be at the ship or something?
Felicita: No, Liberta told me he wasn’t at the ship today
Debito: Hm…I saw him at the study in the afternoon, but it’s been a while since then
Felicita: He didn’t come to dinner either. Where is he?
Pace: Oh! I actually did see him
Felicita: Where?
Pace: I think it was before dinner. He was in the study and looked frustrated
Pace: I tried telling him it was almost dinner time, but I don’t think he heard me
Debito: Pace…why were you even in the study?
Pace: Huh? Obviously I was looking for a book
Debito: A book? You? No way… What brought that on?
Pace: That’s rude. I do read sometimes, you know
>…I didn’t expect that
>Anyway, I’ll go check
Pace: Not you too! I have things I want to look up sometimes!
Debito: Like what?
Pace: Huh? Uh… Ehehe, I forgot
Debito: Hey, what’s the point if you just forget!
Felicita: I don’t know if he’s still there though
Pace: From what I saw, he probably is
Debito: What is Dante even doing cooping himself up in the study all day?
Felicita: Okay, I’ll head over
Pace: I hope Dante’s there
Felicita: Yeah. Thanks
~*Scene: Study*~
Felicita: Dante, are you here…?
Felicita: (I guess not)
Dante: Hm…? Ojou-san…?
Felicita: Dante! …Sorry for waking you
Dante: Ah, sorry about that. I didn’t realize I fell asleep
Felicita: …I knew you were tiring yourself out
Dante: That wasn’t my intention…
>I don’t want to hear excuses
>You didn’t realize?
Dante: My you sure are strict, Donna
Felicita: Nobody can replace you. We can’t have you tiring out
Dante: I usually don’t do research for a whole day
Dante: Perhaps that tired me out
Felicita: I’m glad you’re working hard. But you have to take care of yourself
Dante: It seems that I ended up worrying you
Felicita: Of course I’m worried. …I have nothing to teach, so I have to rely on all of you…
Felicita: You have your regular jobs too, so I know I’m asking a lot
Dante: Don’t be sad, Ojou-san. We don’t think of it as a burden
Dante: I’m actually happy to be doing this
Felicita: Happy?
Dante: It makes me feel like I’m being useful to you. So don’t be sad
Felicita: Dante
Dante: Okay, I’ll study for a little longer and then finish up. Will you help me out?
Felicita: Okay!
Love
~*Scene: Beach*~
Felicita: You sure love the sea, Dante
Dante: The longer this mission lasts, the more I want to see it
Felicita: You miss the sea?
Dante: Hmm. Maybe I am starting to
Felicita: …Sorry
Dante: Why are you apologizing?
Felicita: If I hadn’t ask you to teach for the Academia, you could be on your ship instead right now
Felicita: So I’m the one who took the sea from you
Dante: What? That’s how you felt…?
Dante: It’s true that I like being at sea more than I do being on land
Dante: But this mission is also important to Regalo…and you
Dante: If Regalo is at peace, then you can live happily and with a smile
Dante: Whether it’s protecting Regalo from invaders, or helping children study
Dante: If it makes you smile, I see no difference
Dante: Ensuring you’re always happy is my job
Felicita: Dante…
Dante: Oh, was that too presumptuous…?
Felicita: No, I’m glad to hear it. Thank you
Felicita: As your Donna, I’m happy that you feel that way
Felicita: But, I don’t think I’m worthy of it yet
Dante: In that case, you just need more experience
Dante: As long as you look forward and keep working to reach your ideal self
Dante: We’ll follow you anywhere
Dante: And dedicate all our strength to you and Regalo
Dante: I think we’re getting too serious, so let’s leave it at that
Dante: Since we finally have a break, why don’t we go out on the water a bit?
Dante: The weather’s nice today. The sun would look beautiful reflecting off the sea
Felicita: Can we?
Dante: Sure. Didn’t I just say I’d do anything to see you smile?
Dante: Seeing you enjoy the sea I love would make me happier than anything
Dante: Now, let’s go, Ojou-san. Liberta should be on duty today, so we should hurry before he spots us
Dante: Can I keep you to myself just for today, Donna?
Felicita: …Okay
Laugh
Dante: Everyone aboard?
Felicita: Yes
Dante: We’ll be holding our class here and then doing some hands-on practice. So let’s all stay focused!
Dante: Listen up. The most important thing here is that everyone works together
Dante: Causing disorder can be deadly! You’d all best remember that!
Nova: So that’s how Dante acts as a captain…
Felicita: You’ve never been on a mission at sea, Nova?
Nova: No. I’ve always been with the Chalices since I joined the Family
Nova: This is the first time I’ve seen Dante truly in his element as a sailor
Nova: I’m sure I can learn a lot here besides sailing
Felicita: Yeah, I’m sure
Dante: Then let’s all start with a song
Nova: …A song?
Dante: Nova, come up front
Nova: It can’t be…!
Dante: You can be the model for everyone!
Nova: Why me!
Dante: Nobody else here knows the song
Nova: Then why don’t you sing it yourself!
Dante: Of course I’ll be singing. But haven’t you forgotten something important, Nova?
Nova: Huh? What?
Dante: Singing while we work on the ship isn’t just for fun. It’s also for raising morale
Dante: But we can save the details for later. Let’s just sing!
Dante: Here we go, Nova
Nova: A-alright…
Dante: We’ll be singing version two!
Nova: T-two…?
Dante: La la lala lalala la la la
Nova: Your life is the fruit of the sea~
Dante: Too quiet! Again!
Nova: W-what…!?
Dante: We can’t have out example singing like that, Nova
Nova: Guh…
Dante: One more time
Dante: La la lala lalala la la la
Nova: Your life is the fruit of the sea~
Dante: Louder!
Nova: The harvest is our happiness~
Nova: We feast on the happiness from the sea~
Dante: It’s delicious!
Felicita: The sea sure is deep…

I just want to say, I knew it would happen but it’s still gross to see the double standards, but how Maya and wahaj were raked over the coals for their mushq photoshoot but YumHaj and even Hamza and Seher are getting tons of praise for their equally as scandalous poses is …super amusing. I’ve never seen quite as much misogyny come from other women as I did for maya in that one photo shoot, but other actresses doing the exact same thing is ok because that’s a fan favorite pair. (Also, I think it’s stupid how our awaam cannot fathom a pairing outside of a recent hit; people complain about wahaj and his “overexposure” post TB, but they also don’t want him to be anything besides Murtasim. Like bro needs to act with others, too, but the audience out there behaves like someone committed blasphemy when an actor from a hit pairing acts with someone else.). To be clear, I don’t want any actress receiving hate for doing her job, it’s just sad how blatant the hate was and for such a stupid reason that Maya wasn’t yumna.
And also I’m just gonna say it—nobody in any recent photo shoot had the chemistry of maya and wahaj. You can just tell how comfortable they are with each other. They did hot, innocent, longing, surprise, admiration…literally everything. What range, yo. Even if for notorious reasons, people are still talking about the Mushq photo shoot while their faves’ photo sessions came and went without making any waves sorry not sorry.
Finally, I’ve been seeing people start to blame Maya for the downfall of wahaj post-TB, as if she forced him to sign MPHT, Mein, etc. Like it is so ridiculous out there, we are blaming a woman instead of holding a grown ass actor accountable for not choosing better roles.
Khaled Hosseini said it for men but the quote fits here as well cuz eh..it's a man involved.
“Like a compass needle that points north, a man's accusing finger always finds a woman. Always.”
just replace "man" with "fangirls of a man".
i have this shit behavior happen across the board again and again that I now consciously try to be numb to it. it's always the same. blame the woman. blame her for coming in between a ship. or blame her for being close to the man. or blame her for just existing. in all cases the man is the bechara masoom who doesn't know any better. it's the woman who has trapped him. it's the woman being insecure. it's the woman controlling his every action. never man, never him. and of course it's always the women who blame the woman.
you didn't mention Anmol Baloch here. Hamza Sehar fans are also hating on her because Hamza did the ghor paap of working with her and promoting his show with her. idk how true the rumors of their relationship are; they shouldn't MEAN anything. like any other pairing, Anmol and Hamza had all the right to do photoshoots in character to promote on their insta pages. that is not a right reserved just for their fav jodi. ANY fav jodi. these are actors. it's the world of social media. promotion on their public accounts is now a part of their JOB. they are all fucking PAID for it. and when money is involved, more times than less it becomes the main motivation. if these fans think their favs don't ask for money to promote their certain fav jodi because that's where their "true love and passion" lies then..i don't even know what to say.
and really I pity Wahaj as well. his own "fans" are close to blackmailing him to not expand his boundaries at all. him doing multiple photoshoots is "overexposure" but him doing them with Yumna is "using the small window of opportunity of being the most popular thing in the industry to its maximum benefit." arey??? it just comes down to what kind of fandom one has amassed over their career. like if on one hand Wahaj fans are criticizing his overexposure, MK fans are making flippant comments about inflation that has made MK do back to back three bridal campaigns. hypocrisy? i don't even wanna care.
frankly i am TIRED of searching Maya's name and seeing it just in connection with Wahaj. i love Mushq. MY BESTIE SERVED ME IN WAYS I CANNOT EXPLAIN! just last night i was rewatching the clips and oh my HEART it's beautiful beautiful beautiful BEAUTIFULLLLLL!! but i have to admit i HATE how Maya's entire existence has been shrunk to that photoshoot only. she's being used both by the yumhaj fans and the non-yumhaj fans as a weapon to use to attack others or defend their own favs. i doubt any one really cares about HER because then i'd actually see her be talked about individually or her projects. but no. it's always "they have been friends for years". like yes so WHAT? baar baar mention karna zaroori hai???
it's just no use trying to sense with these kind of people. i can only hope we get an official annoucement of Maya's next work again so she can leave this behind.

Job free?!? She is a bar owner! U know the bar she's always wanted but rarely visits.. maybe now a days you can run a business like that online coz who needs to be there... Oh I'm sorry she is working.. using the bar's ig to post videos of D on tv talking about said bar.. bills, day to day running?! Huh that's not important
Tumblr media
NGL - I thought this ask was going in a different direction when I read the brief summary on my notification. Then I read the whole thing and went from "oh sweet lord here we go again" to getting a good laugh, so thanks.
D's always pushed the whole "its her bar, I'm just there to play the piano and draw in the crowds and do all of the promotion for it" storyline but he really went into overdrive on that View debacle: telling us that for as long as he's known her, its been her dream to own a bar. Which - ok, fine. No problem with that. Lots of people want to own their own business. The difference is that they usually put in the blood, sweat, and tears to make their dream work. You have to work so hard to make small businesses and food and drink establishments successful in this country. I have a family member who's a chef and he owns a small string of cafes and a bar where he lives and he also caters so needless to say, he's very busy and constantly traveling back and forth between businesses to make sure things are running like they are supposed to. He doesn't have time to take off for a few weeks to chill in first class hotels and go to fancy parties and hob knob with celebs as his spouse's plus one. While you can hire managers to take care of the smaller day to day items, if you're the owner, its ultimately your business. You are the one who wanted this in the first place - you should spend the most time there of everyone, not the least.  What else is she doing that would prevent her from being at her lifelong dream?  And when I say “being there,” I mean as the owner, not as a customer.  Far as I can tell, the last time she was there was Halloween when she showed off her bump in that cheap SW costume.  That time - as well as any other time she’s made a spectacle of herself front and center of the piano - she certainly wasn’t doing anything that resembled “work.”  Its been 4 years and one thing has remained constant: she wants the title, credibility, and public praise of an owner’s role but isn’t interested in doing any of the work to earn it.  She wants a place to drink with her friends and get pics taken of her and her famous spouse and the famous people his name brings in.  The rest of it is left to someone else to figure out.  If she really cared about her bar, she wouldn’t readily abandon it at the drop of a hat for literally any reason whatsoever.  Those weekend trips to Vegas, overseas jaunts with his stylist, weeks away in Europe to be a plus one at things that don’t require her presence and that D is more than capable of handling on his own and now months in NYC - they don’t exactly scream dedicated caring boss, no matter what bs posts from the staff on Insta say.  I’m honestly sure that the only reason this place is still in business is D.  His constant promotion of it, the way its traded on his fanbase as customers since day 1, the way its billed as “their” bar which just adds another component to the fake fairy tale love story - none of those factors include any real contribution from her.  Not to mention the endlessly repetitive and/or offensive theme nights that by now are old and tired.  And yes - while the advent of the internet has made things like actual paperwork that used to have be done on site and by hand portable, they still have to be done.  You can’t exactly do things like inventory from another time zone either.  Does anyone actually believe she’s sitting poolside approving payroll and purchase orders?  And no - cackling in a hotel room as your spouse once again uses a tv interview that is billed as being about his new Broadway play to plug your shitty bar and then posting the video to the bar’s Insta story isn’t work.  And now she has the excuse of the baby to use, so it’ll certainly be interesting to watch and see how many things of D’s she manages to find time to go to so she gets her attention while the bar falls even further down her list. I’m thinking at this point that if having a newborn at home hasn’t slowed down her thirst, nothing will.  And isn’t D just the luckiest?

Matt Vines is absolute garbage and I would so love it if he went away forever. For someone who does do little, he thinks super highly of himself. And honestly, he doesn’t have a decent grasp of this fandom. The fact that so many of us that have stuck by Louis for years are just exhausted and tired and just do not care anymore. Like, I’m here for the new music, but have basically checked out of everything else, and that’s a result of the current faith in the future promo. What are they going to do when the only people that show up are purple hair stalker and her minions, because everyone else moved on? I hate Louis’ team so much.
I’ll give him this - he’s great at talking. Unfortunately, he’s not actually good at being a manager, his “strategies” are failing miserably, and he doesn’t have even half as good of a grasp of Louis’ fandom as he thinks he does.
I think one of the most frustrating quotes for me was this:
“We spend our life slowly re-educating people on who he is, to try and remove any preconceptions about what he might be, what he wants to do or even who he is as a person.”
That’s a great thing to think is important, and understandable considering Louis’ music and goals now are very different from when he was in a boyband. But have they actually attempted to re-educate people effectively? Let’s reflect on this supposed re-education and what talking points it actually consists of....
1) Louis was in One Direction. Did you hear? He was in One Direction. Louis was in One Direction and he loves the other boys and supports the other boys who never mention or support him publicly ever because HE WAS IN ONE DIRECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Btw he’s not as popular as a solo artist and is very much the underdog now that he’s not in One Direction. Former One Directioner Louis Tomlinson!!!! 1D 4 LYFE!! Hope they reunite soon hehe!
2) Louis is a father. Louis has a child!!!!! Freddie, yes, Freddie! Freddie lives in LA where Louis totally spends so much of his time because he is a FATHER. Father Louis and his son Freddie who he definitely hangs out with all the time and who he definitely had listen to his album first!!!!!! Oh, you don’t want to hear about a random 7-year-old in interviews that are supposed to be promoting an album? TOO BAD....FATHER LOUIS IS HERE.
3) Louis loves supporting other artists!!!! Louis loves other artists. Louis does everything he can to support small indie bands who rarely support him back and he will constantly praise more popular artists like Sam Fender whose high praise of him in return consists of “he’s a nice kid.” Louis is here to support other artists more than himself!! Here’s a playlist of all the artists Louis supports! Oh, he has a single to promote? Oopsies! We forgot to include that hehe.
4) Louis smokes and drinks. LOUIS LOVES SMOKING AND DRINKING!!!! Smoking and drinking is everything to him, fundamental to his being. Louis always has a cigarette or a drink in his hand, Louis chain smokes through every interview, Louis drinks before, during, and after every show. Isn’t it like, so so cool that Louis drinks and smokes? He’s so indie, he’s so rocker. No, you don’t get to listen to a performance of his song, but knowing he drinks vodka redbulls before a show should make up for that, right?
It doesn’t even matter if some of these things (excluding babygate) are true - Louis can drink and smoke and be proud of his past in One Direction, but when you make these talking points the centerpiece of almost every article and interview, that’s all people see of him. And sorry, but that’s not gaining him a single fan.
The “re-education” about him that they’ve engaged in, particularly in the UK, has only served to make others the focus of Louis’ promo (whether it’s the other One Direction boys, people from his personal life, or other artists) and prevent people from taking him seriously as a musician, songwriter, and performer. It’s not motivating anybody to check out his music, and that includes alternative and indie fans. Nobody is going to go listen to Louis’ album because they learn he smokes like a chimney or he enjoys listening to The Snuts.
And the sad thing is that if they actually just let Louis talk about his music and then perform it, if they let his music speak for itself through performances and radio play, it would make him thousands upon thousands more fans than all of these awful fucking interviews and print articles combined.

I regulated my emotions today after working longer hours than usual, spending the day being screamed at and hit by my toddler and having a fight with my husband.
My therapist told me the level of investment I make every day is unnatural. I am 24/7 wife, 24/7 mom, and sometimes it feels like I am a 12/5 employee.
People ask me all the time: how do you do it?
I would respond “I genuinely don’t know.”
I still don’t know. My husband is at home with me almost all the time and that is both helpful and in ways harder. Honestly, I feel like it negates itself in ways.
But today, when my toddler was screaming at me and hitting. I was able to stop her and say “let’s take deep breaths together” and then praised her. When my husband and I fought, I wasn’t okay for awhile but I was able to calm myself down enough to finish my work for the day, put my daughter to bed and let myself breathe.
The most impressive thing? I resisted the urge to talk to someone about it. I’m not sure that was the healthiest choice but talking to people in moments of distress used to be an OCD compulsion. I wasn’t able to stop inserting myself into their lives and using them as a venting space. That’s such an unkind thing to do.
No one owes me their peace or time like that. I can’t be depending on them to find peace. I have to find my own peace. So I breathed through it and I made better decisions.
I’m finding I have a strength in me I didn’t know was possible. I even recently got a promotion. But I’m also so fucking tired 🥱 I’d be more impressed except I know that to make everything else happen, I’ve had to neglect myself.
I’m going to figure out how to change that too…
Goodnight

Cosplaying Poor: The Tired Trend of Rich Fashion
Aren’t rich people not tired of cosplaying as poor? Because we are tired of seeing it. By mixing work wear with refined tailoring and elegant silhouettes, Carharrt and Sacai’s collaboration for Spring/Summer 2024 perfectly captures the essences of rich aestheticising  poverty. Beyond the slumming, which is the core issue with the collection, it comes across as tacky and tired. 
Carhartt, which is a work wear brand established in 1889, has grown in popularity in recent years due to endorsements from celebrities such as A$AP Rocky, a rising trend of vintage fashion has also led to a growth in popularity. I've even seen memes that refer to seeing construction workers “breaking in” Carhartt jackets so that people can buy them second hand and get that distressed, edgy look. This idea of buying pre-distressed clothes isn't new (I'm sure we all fell victim to the ripped jeans epidemic of the 2010s) but are brands taking it too far?  Brands such as Balenciaga have gone viral for selling shoes held together by duct tape for hundreds of euros, resulting in obvious backlash for this brand. There were other collaborations in recent years that follow a similar pattern as Carhartt and Sacai, such as the Adidas and Gucci collaborations. To me this seems like luxury fashion is trying to cash in on the influence of Black aesthetics in pop-culture; brands like Adidas became a staple of hip-hop culture from their association with Run-DMC. Now Carhartt uses rappers like A$AP Rocky and Lil Uzi to promote their brand, and the cycle continues. 
Tumblr media
Carhartt and Sacai flopped with this collaboration. The clothes themselves are lackluster to say the least. All they really did was implement iconic silhouettes from their dungarees and attach them to silk skirts, which looks boring. Of course they tailored new silhouettes incorporating their jackets but this being said, anything they tried to present as “new” looked straight out of Bikini Bottom. Shirts with huge leaf embellishments, is just one of the looks that is being pushed most on social media and websites like HypeBeast, but it looks like it came straight out of H&M in 2016. Maybe if the collaboration was presenting something new, exciting and original it would be easier to digest. But I’m doubtful any fabulous fashion forward flair would calm the gastric upset triggered by their working class posturing. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I do recognise that Carhartt clothing is not necessarily cheap, but it is built with the intention to last. The rise of fast fashion and micro trends has led consumers to feel as though they need to stay up to date with trends while the rich lead the way. The rapid trend cycles have subsequently led to a rise in the prices of trending brands such as Carhartt. I’m tired of the trend cycles that have become so concrete and unachievable for most people. I think collaborations such as this show that rich people will always want to fit in with the other 99% of us. While we can only dream of living luxuriously, the rich can dress up as poor and call it anything from “rat girl chic” to “homeless core” and be praised for it.
If you are someone who can afford to indulge in this collaboration, I wouldn't bother. You're going to look outdated before you have time to take some outfit pictures for Instagram. Invest in vintage, it's more sustainable and generally made from better quality materials. 
This collection is a hard pass for me. Not only because of the exploitative nature but also the lackluster looks. But if you can afford to look poor and be praised for it go ahead, this collection is made for you.
