fucking hate the people who go into the replies of posts that say "hey, maybe don't hate literal children for simply existing," and go "Uhm! 🤓 Actually, 🤪 I am correct for hating on and beefing with literal babies as they are loud and annoying," as if you, yourself, aren't loud and annoying.
#like. okay. im biased i will admit that. i have kid siblings who are loud and annoying#but its like. so were you? when you were younger?#the whole purpose of a child is to grow and to learn#to learn what's right and what's wrong and how to act appropriately in a society#but to do so. they need help - but they arent getting that help#parents prefer to have ipads parent the children they chose to have#kid friendly spaces are either destroyed or abandoned or unsafe to be in#due to a variety of issues#like crime cars crazy adults etc#even online they arent safe. websites i used to go on when i was a children#literally built for children are gone#apps come with paywalls or in app purchases#cable is gone - which is like good sure except for the fact that all the television channels for children are all gone#there are really no good shows for children that are free anymore#there is no really safe online spaces for kids anymore. even when they try to stick to fandoms associated with children media like bluey#or trolls or mlp its dominated with adults who the space unsafe for them#yes it is annoying when children go into adult spaces and are loud and annoying. adults should have those spaces#and we do!#but have SOME sympathy please#children are growing up in a world that is not designed to keep them safe. happy or fulfilled.#they. like us. did not ask to be here - they had no choice in the matter#and im not saying you should love children. no thats not it#what im trying to say is to just. learn some patience and some empathy#and to not beef with LITERAL BABIES#idk if his is coherent im bareky awake as it is but god. god i had to get this out#also im not saying that adults cant be in fandoms meant for children. thats not it at all. im in the mlp and trolls fandom#but what im saying is you cant go into a daycare and get mad that babies are there. thats where theyre meant to be#strawberry speaks

how is it that we get a roommate to replace the former roommate whom we had beef with for screaming at their video games and the new roommate does the same exact thing but with a different emotion. like didn't we get you to avoid this exact scenario
#granted there were a lot of other worse and different reasons why we kicked alyx out#however;#and granted we did say at the beginning of this thing that new roommate is a twitch streamer and games a lot so this may be an issue#HOWEVER.#4 days out of the week i have to text this fuckass to keep it down bc i hear them shrieking clear across the house at 1am after they? idk?#get shot by a 13 yr old in fortnite?#get good i guess!#genuine rage over this due to i can hear them yelling right now (it is 1130 pm)#and it isnt even a good game. and? you aren't even good at it.#idk. skill issue on both counts! i dont have a bad time in game bc im good at it. and even when i do i am not making noises#especially not noises that can be heard across a hallway and two (2) doors#like the most insignificant of insignificant petty grievances but perhaps the one i am most frustrated by#somehow#'ahhh i play fortnite ahhh i'm having such a time playing fornite' i have nothing but contempt for you.#in the most asshole way possible. after having played a few games. telling ppl u play fortnite is embarrassing.#no matter how u do. u win? congratulations! you just wiped a bunch of 13 yr olds#u lose? congratulations! u just got wiped by a bunch of 13 yr olds and some fuckass who drops $50 weekly to get some fuckass shiny gun#or whatever.#ANYWAYS ...#everyone avert ur eyes im tired and pissed about a variety of things.#croidhe#AND they don't clean up after themselves EITHER. granted not to the extent alyx didn't#and at least they're not a complete asshole. but. did we NOT get you to avoid. this EXACT scenario.

Balloon Art Day 8 (finally!)
Day 1 - Day 2 - Day 3 - Day 4 - Day 5 - Day 6 - Day 7
33, 34, 35. Dogs (not pictured) - (unnamed)
Technically none of these were done today, but I didn't want to post 3 separate updates that all say "I made a dog today, but didn't feel motivated to do anything else." Given the length of the break between more involved projects, I wanted to at least make something, so I made a quick dog every few days. I realize this isn't much, but it's something. Since dogs are so simple, every time I make one, I try to do something slightly different with it. I imagine asking a child what their favorite breed of dog is, and trying to convey the defining traits of that breed through slight adjustments to the basic formula. Obviously, I haven't made many so far, so I have yet to really hone this skill to its peak, but I will keep working on it.

36. Clownfish - Tyson
When I first started making balloon art, this was one of the things I was most excited about making. Clownfish are my favorite fish, and I love the way their distinctive appearance. Until today, I didn't have any black balloons to work with, so this is the first time I've been able to do this design justice. I'm really happy that this was what I decided to make as my return to balloon art, in spite of the minor imperfections. Now that I've updated my supply of balloons, I look forward to all the new possibilities available to me, and I hope to show you more creations soon!

For the uninformed:
1. it is true for some selectively mute people to find emojis easier/possible to communicate effectively with than textual words
2. it is also true, sometimes simultaneously, that some selectively mute people can use textual words to communicate easily and effectively
(lots of tags, apologies)

I love thinking abt the wasteland staliens sm it pains me so that they have quite literally no reason nor possibility in the slightest to be so much as implied to exist in eternal gales like they are so fucking out of the way of the main cast not a single fucker in their society has any damn reason to know they exist nor that any other stalien society exists cause these mother fuckers have isolated themselves so hard and all of this is my fault cause I made the damn worldbuilding dydjgdkdhd
#rat rambles#eternal gales#oc posting#theyre just so fun to think abt to me cause of how their society is also kind of split between the surface and the underground but in very#different ways since for them a lot of it is out of necesity thanks to their harsh climate that swings to a different harsh climate also#rly tho the biggest issues for them all camping out in one place is the area's paracites that pose a constant threat to everyone#basically theres two dry seasons and two wet seasons with the dry seasons being very long and the wet seasons much shorter#we got our hot dry season our cold and rainy season our cold and dry season and our warm and wet season#cold and rainy is usually when most of the most threatening paracite species come to the surface to mate and then mostly die off for the#cold and dry season until the warm and wet season comes and the new paracites hatch and dig downwards to find hosts#this leads to periods where its unsafe to be on the surface and periods where its unsafe to be underground leading to many having homes in#both and traveling between the two as needed througout the year#these guys also have much more of a concept of years in terms of planatary rotation around the sun than the main cast's society due to this#now of course they cant just leave their cities and such completely unoccupied and uncared for for a variety of reasons#so theres a good chunk of staliens who permanently take residence in the surface or underground#mostly ppl specifically trained to maintain buildings and other structures and ppl trained to take care of those ppl#but theres also just some folk who commit to one local for some reason or another (typically cause of issues with moving their belongings)#oh and also it used to be more common for only eyed staliens to exlusively live underground but in the present day theres a lot of methods#for them to get the energy they need through other means other than just finding energy deposits underground#so nowadays they tend to live wherever as long as theres not like a shortage or smth#also fun fact! you can usually guess which egg cycle of the year a stalien from this society was born in pretty easily due to the wildy#different climates over the year#staliens born during the cold season tend to be larger and have a higher chance for fur mutations while those born in the hot season tend#to be a lot smaller by like a significant degree#obviously this isnt perfectly consistant and otherwise they share all the same traits but on average theres a pretty big split in height#the taller ones average at like 8-10 ft while the smaller ones average from like 4-6 ft#the main stalien cast's climate leaves their average between the 7-8 ft range for reference#anyways I need to fucking sleep and stop rambling abt worldbuilding shit dhndgdkdy

Emerges from my cave to announce I have created a new sophont
Tentatively calling swimslugs for now, as their designs mostly draw from mollusc anatomy. These small, colorful creatures dwell on a high gravity world dominated by shallow golden seas. Electrical engineering came early in their history, inspired by the ability of some of their native animals to generate electrical currents… and their own natural electroreception. The last few centuries have been peaceful and prosperous; their myriad cultures emphasize an exchange of art, culture, and friendly competition to sport the tackiest color schemes imaginable. Due to the high gravity of their world and their own physical limitations as aquatic creatures, swimslugs have a very limited history of aviation and have been generally uninterested in space travel, despite having been digital penpals with another group of sophonts for generations now…
On their biology:
Swimslug life relies on symbioses with two different organisms: a worm and a sessile “tunicate”. The worm (also simply referred to as an ‘arm’) is functionally a parasite; biting into the flank under the gills of its host early in life and fusing with its nervous and circulatory systems. This union allows the swimslug to develop fine motor control over the untethered end of the worm by adolescence. Most swimslugs only host a single arm; two or more become difficult for most individuals to acclimate to and can lead to health issues. Many genetic and cybernetic variations of the arm are available in the current era. The ‘tunicate’ (I will refer to as the Vase) is essential to swimslug reproduction; all parents spawn into the Vase to ensure a safe shelter and a steady current of oxygenated water for the developing offspring. The average swimslug has at least two fathers; the hybridization of multiple sets of gametes is essential to the proper development of their species. Family groups often consist of the egg layer, her family Vase (these can last for generations), and a 3 or 4 mates, though the particulars vary enormously by culture. Their eggs have a relatively low hatch rate; unviable eggs are consumed by surviving larvae shortly after hatching. The Vases themselves periodically produce free swimming larvae that are affectionately kept around dwellings as pets.
Swimslugs communicate by grinding and clacking modified stomach-teeth, as well as percussing on the adjacent ‘oil-sac’ organ that also serves to regulate buoyancy and store energy. They come in a dazzling variety of colors owing to both their complex hybridizations and genetic engineering. Cosmetic nanobots applied to their slime coats enhance their appearance by functioning as artificial chromatophores.
And that’s the gist of em! Many thanks to @nknatteringly for all the idea pitching and bouncing in their early development, wouldn’t have felt half as inspired without ya. Not sure how much further I’ll develop these guys, they exist mostly as a fun diversion to contrast the gritty, low-tech world of the birgs and a love letter to all the sparkly stuff I liked as a kid.

"In response to last year’s record-breaking heat due to El Niño and impacts from climate change, Indigenous Zenù farmers in Colombia are trying to revive the cultivation of traditional climate-resilient seeds and agroecology systems.
One traditional farming system combines farming with fishing: locals fish during the rainy season when water levels are high, and farm during the dry season on the fertile soils left by the receding water.
Locals and ecologists say conflicts over land with surrounding plantation owners, cattle ranchers and mines are also worsening the impacts of the climate crisis.
To protect their land, the Zenù reserve, which is today surrounded by monoculture plantations, was in 2005 declared the first Colombian territory free from GMOs.
...
In the Zenù reserve, issues with the weather, climate or soil are spread by word of mouth between farmers, or on La Positiva 103.0, a community agroecology radio station. And what’s been on every farmer’s mind is last year’s record-breaking heat and droughts. Both of these were charged by the twin impacts of climate change and a newly developing El Niño, a naturally occurring warmer period that last occurred here in 2016, say climate scientists.
Experts from Colombia’s Institute of Hydrology, Meteorology and Environmental Studies say the impacts of El Niño will be felt in Colombia until April 2024, adding to farmers’ concerns. Other scientists forecast June to August may be even hotter than 2023, and the next five years could be the hottest on record. On Jan. 24, President Gustavo Petro said he will declare wildfires a natural disaster, following an increase in forest fires that scientists attribute to the effects of El Niño.
In the face of these changes, Zenù farmers are trying to revive traditional agricultural practices like ancestral seed conservation and a unique agroecology system.
Tumblr media
Pictured: Remberto Gil’s house is surrounded by an agroforestry system where turkeys and other animals graze under fruit trees such as maracuyá (Passiflora edulis), papaya (Carica papaya) and banana (Musa acuminata colla). Medicinal herbs like toronjil (Melissa officinalis) and tres bolas (Leonotis nepetifolia), and bushes like ají (Capsicum baccatum), yam and frijol diablito (beans) are part of the undergrowth. Image by Monica Pelliccia for Mongabay.
“Climate change is scary due to the possibility of food scarcity,” says Rodrigo Hernandez, a local authority with the Santa Isabel community. “Our ancestral seeds offer a solution as more resistant to climate change.”
Based on their experience, farmers say their ancestral seed varieties are more resistant to high temperatures compared to the imported varieties and cultivars they currently use. These ancestral varieties have adapted to the region’s ecosystem and require less water, they tell Mongabay. According to a report by local organization Grupo Semillas and development foundation SWISSAID, indigenous corn varieties like blaquito are more resistant to the heat, cariaco tolerates drought easily, and negrito is very resistant to high temperatures.
The Zenù diet still incorporates the traditional diversity of seeds, plant varieties and animals they consume, though they too are threatened by climate change: from fish recipes made from bocachico (Prochilodus magdalenae), and reptiles like the babilla or spectacled caiman (Caiman crocodilus), to different corn varieties to prepare arepas (cornmeal cakes), liquor, cheeses and soups.
“The most important challenge we have now is to save ancient species and involve new generations in ancestral practice,” says Sonia Rocha Marquez, a professor of social sciences at Sinù University in the city of Montería.
...[Despite] land scarcity, Negrete says communities are developing important projects to protect their traditional food systems. Farmers and seed custodians, like Gil, are working with the Association of Organic Agriculture and Livestock Producers (ASPROAL) and their Communitarian Seed House (Casa Comunitaria de Semillas Criollas y Nativas)...
Tumblr media
Pictured: Remberto Gil is a seed guardian and farmer who works at the Communitarian Seed House, where the ASPROL association stores 32 seeds of rare or almost extinct species. Image by Monica Pelliccia for Mongabay.
Located near Gil’s house, the seed bank hosts a rainbow of 12 corn varieties, from glistening black to blue to light pink to purple and even white. There are also jars of seeds for local varieties of beans, eggplants, pumpkins and aromatic herbs, some stored in refrigerators. All are ancient varieties shared between local families.
Outside the seed bank is a terrace where chickens and turkeys graze under an agroforestry system for farmers to emulate: local varieties of passion fruit, papaya and banana trees grow above bushes of ají peppers and beans. Traditional medicinal herbs like toronjil or lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) form part of the undergrowth.
Today, 25 families are involved in sharing, storing and commercializing the seeds of 32 rare or almost-extinct varieties.
“When I was a kid, my father brought me to the farm to participate in recovering the land,” says Nilvadys Arrieta, 56, a farmer member of ASPROAL. “Now, I still act with the same collective thinking that moves what we are doing.”
“Working together helps us to save, share more seeds, and sell at fair price [while] avoiding intermediaries and increasing families’ incomes,” Gil says. “Last year, we sold 8 million seeds to organic restaurants in Bogotà and Medellín.”
So far, the 80% of the farmers families living in the Zenù reserve participate in both the agroecology and seed revival projects, he adds."

Hi, I saw your post about practicing drawing fat people and I was wondering if you could compile like a list of resources or references?
Tumblr media
It can be difficult to find resources for drawing the wide variety of forms fat bodies can occupy, so I've done my best to bring together some resources I've been able to prove have some degree of diversity in the references they offer!
My primary resource recommendation for drawing fat people is Morpho Anatomy For Artists: Fat And Skin Folds! It does a wonderful job breaking down where fat accumulates on the body, how it interacts with the familiar landmarks of human anatomy, and what sort of shapes it tends to form under the influence of gravity. It's a phenomenal reference and my top recommendation for anyone seeking to improve at drawing fat people!
When it comes to finding decent photo references for fat people, the pickings are frustratingly slim. Most sites that specialize in pose references either don't have fat models or have all their images behind paywalls. Of the resources I looked through, the best sources for pose references were Adorkastock and Line of Action.
@adorkastock actively seeks to provide an incredible profile of pose references with diverse body types, and as an added bonus you can access a lot of their images for free on their site/Tumblr or join their patreon for early access to images! Line of action is a site aimed towards practicing figure drawing, providing images and a timed function to challenge artists to sketch within a set time limit. I took the time to go through roughly 300+ images and was pleased to find that during my session around two-to-three out of every ten photos were fat models. The only caveats to this was the fact that most of the images were of the same individual, limiting the applications for studying the variants of fat bodies. Still, it's an amazing tool that has a free mode and allows you to filter the types of references you want based on age and level of nudity.
Beyond sites that specialize in art reference photography, there's also the ever popular Pinterest, which is the site where I typically seek references for my personal studies. Due to the nature of Pinterest's extensive collection, there's a vast variety of references for different fat body types that includes a lot more "everyday" people. The primary issue with Pinterest however is the rampant reposting and lack of proper credits for images, which can make things dicey depending on how you wish to use the references you find. For personal studies this isn't really an issue, but for any sort of professional or paid work is something to be aware of just for the sake of accountability.
* For those who are 18+, porn photography of real people also offers an incredible wealth of visual resources for fat bodies and how they interact with gravity/movement/etc. The variety of positions and angles offer many opportunities to study human anatomy, and it's a pretty well-known fact that drawing NSFW art can be an important learning experience for those struggling with drawing anatomy. In the end, it depends on your personal level of comfort with viewing/drawing explicit images, but it's not something you should completely overlook.
Last but not least, look at the work of artists you admire who draw fat people! While I typically recommend sticking to photo references for learning anatomy, studying artist's portrayals of fat people is also incredibly helpful for learning different tactics for simplifying and/or stylizing fat bodies to better fit ones own style. There are also plenty of artists who've crafted tutorials detailing their approach to drawing fat folks, so I highly recommend you check them out as well! I hope the resources I've linked here can help you in your studies, and feel free to drop another ask if you have any more questions! I'm planning on posting a tutorial on how I do studies for fat people soon, so that will be an additional resource for you once I've got it posted!

Hi again! I hope you’re doing well. I see you’re open for requests, and I have an interesting and NSFW one.
So we already have fics involving Miguel having a heat/mating cycle due to his spliced DNA with Spider DNA. How about Spider![Reader] [FEMALE] being in heat this time and she avoids everyone in the Spider Society, especially Miguel, her own “secret boyfriend”. She’s usually friendly with everyone, but recently acting like she was “sick” and doesn’t want anyone near her. However, Miguel caught wind of this and he brought her back to his lair/office (as a caring boyfriend worried about his girlfriend), [Reader] begs him to “help” with her situation.
Then things got heated and he helped relieve [Reader]’s libido.
- @club-danger-zone
Hehehehehehehe
Warning: MINORS DNI, Smut, breeding kink, overstimulation, begging, creampie, fingering
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What did you do so wrong in your life to deserve this horrible side effect of being half-Spider?
Why did such a thing have to happen to you?
This felt like a cruel punishment given only to you. The hero of this damn city. Someone who fought for those who couldn't; someone who fought for good; why did you have to be cursed with something so tempting and primal?
You suffered from heat, or a mating cycle as some would call it. Every now and then you would suddenly have to urge to have sex and want to get pregnant. It wasn't something you could control, nor did you enjoy suffering from it.
You had tolerated it for the most part. Save up enough money so you could call out of work during this time. Had a variety of different toys to pleasure yourself with until the pain goes away.
But this time, it was different.
You weren't sure why, but honestly you could make a few guesses. There were only a few small changes in your life since the last heat cycle. Between your personal issues and the Spider Society, your main guess for the new pain was...
Your boyfriend.
You've never been in a relationship before until now. Your heat was going crazy probably because you had a source to get pregnant now. The only issue is that you and Miguel hadn't gotten that far yet. The two of you were in a secret relationship.
Miguel was the leader of the Spider Society. It was frowned upon to be dating between dimensions. Miguel always said that you were a special case, which was why he broke that rule. You loved Miguel and were happy with him...but you never told him this secret.
Groaning softly, you laid against your bed, your fingers working furiously. Nothing was good enough. Nothing was reliving you. Your heat wasn't going away.
Recalling how Miguel's futurist world had cures for nearly everything, you felt a light bulb appear. Perhaps, there was something to calm down your heat? Hurrying to your suit, you whimpered as you used your watch to transport to the Spider Society.
-------
Miguel had just returned from a mission, grunting loudly as he dragged the anomaly behind him. Miguel was tired and frustrated. As he walked around the Spider Society, Miguel couldn't help but hear some of the others talk about you acting strange.
Curious about what was going on with his girlfriend, Miguel hurried to find you. He threw the anomaly in the cell and had Lyla search for your watch location. He was surprised to find you in one of the bathrooms.
Making his way over, Miguel made sure to enter when no one else was inside. He locked the door and approached the stall you were in.
"(Y/n), are you alright, mi amor? (My love)" Miguel asked softly as you cried.
"N-No, I'm in pain, Miggy," You sobbed. Miguel quickly opened the door, bending down to your level,
"What's wrong?" He asked, wiping your tears away.
Miguel watched as your breathing shuddered the moment he touched you. The look in your eyes were lustful as you merely whimpered, tugging against his arm. You were acting strange. Miguel went to pick you up, causing you to whine and wrap your arms around his neck.
"Migs...P-Please help me. I need...I need you." Your voice was so desperate and sweet.
"(Y/n), is this a side effect of your spider biting you in your world?" Miguel asked softly as he quickly took you to his lair.
"Mhm, y-yes. I...I'm in....h-heat," You were so cute as you barely got the words out.
"Ah-"
Miguel finally felt the click as you told him. Looking around at his large lair, Miguel knew that this would not be private enough, nor comfortable for you. So, he took you to a spare bedroom in the Spider Society and locked the door.
Right as Miguel turned around, you had already taken your clothes off. You were on your knees, practically crying as you begged Miguel to hurry.
"Aye, amor, how can I go easy on you like this?"
---------
Your mind was starting to grow fuzzy. The pain was too much, especially since Miguel was going to help you. Your clothes were getting uncomfortable so you had to remove them. You inhaled deeply as Miguel approached you, stroking your cheek.
"Mhm~"
The warmth of his hand instantly melted you. You grabbed onto Miguel, pulling him in for a kiss. It was sloppy, but you needed this. Miguel proceeded to press your body against the bed as his tongue ravished your mouth.
His hands were all over you, giving you that desperate touch you needed. Gasping, Miguel's fingers easily entered your soaked cunt, touching you in all the places you had been needing to be touch. The curl of his fingers against your gummy walls, caused you to moan and cry.
"So wet, amor. How long have you suffered from this?"
"Ah~ Ah~ S-So long....n-need you, Miggy~" You cried, shaking from cumming against his fingers.
"No, (Y/n), how long today."
"Hnnn, hours! M-Miguel, please! F-Fuck me!" You begged.
Your body needed more. The burning sensation was finally starting to go away, you just needed more. Miguel grunted softly, kissing your neck as he raised your legs. You were clenching to air, anticipating the fantastic feeling you were about to endure.
Tears started to form as you felt Miguel poke your entrance. His kisses a bit more rough as his cock started to make room inside of you. Pure bliss soared from your pussy to your brain as his thick cock stretched your gummy walls.
"I always imagined our first time...a bit more romantic," Miguel whispered, grunting softly as he kept pushing.
"S-Sorry t-that...ah~ I-I can't...mhm contro-"
"Shh, don't be sorry," Miguel grunted, finally setting fully inside of you, "I'll make sure to give you as much as you want. I'm happy to help."
You just moaned to his words, feeling his cock kissing your cervix. Your pussy fluttering around his cock as you cam from insertion. The warmth you were feeling was building up inside you. That knot growing as you moved your hips, needing more friction.
With each thrust, you started to lose your senses. Every slap of Miguel's hips brought you to heaven. Your body just melted against his as the noises the two of you made because almost pornographic. The wet slapping noises over powering his grunts.
"You're so loud, amor. Everyone will hear you," Miguel grunted as he pressed you into mating position, "What do I have to do to keep you quiet?"
"C-Cum, ah~ i-inside~" You cried, shuddering from the overstimulation.
The burning sensation was finally going away and all you wanted was Miguel to fill you. Breed you. Each slap of his cock inside you was almost painful from how sensitive you were. Jolts were shocking every part of you.
"Anything for you,"
Miguel groaned softly in your ear as he gave you his first hot load. You moaned, shuddering from cumming again. Your body was feeling sore, but you kept begging for more. This was too good to stop. Miguel's cock made it's home inside of you.
-------
Miguel gripped your hips as he kept fucking you stupid. Your moans were so loud and sexy that he couldn't hold back. Your pussy was dripping against the bedsheets, coating his cock white. His cum threatening to spill out of your poor pussy.
Your eyes were glossed over with a fucked out expression, drool nearly rolling down your lips. Cursing lowly as Miguel felt you squeezer against his dick again, he tried to control himself. Your body kept begging for more, no matter how fragile you both were now.
"Mig-" You choked, sobbing from pleasure, "M-More...j-just..."
Your words were barely coming out. Miguel frowned at the state you were in, but couldn't refuse. He brought you in for another deep kiss before giving you another heavy load.
--------
A soft groan escaped your lips as you started to wake up. Your vision was blurred, but once you started to come to, you noticed that you were in Miguel's place.
"Hn-" You winced, trying to sit up but couldn't.
"Don't move. You're body is still sore and exhausted. Here's some water," Miguel sighed softly, sitting beside you to give you the drink, "How are you feeling now?"
"M-Miguel," Your voice was low and scratchy, "I-I'm sorry...I...I made you-"
"You didn't make me do anything. I offered to help, besides, I can't resist my poor girlfriend in pain," He cooed, kissing your head.
"Sorry,"
"Just next time, (Y/n), tell me when your heat starts. I want to make sure you get your fill before you come crying to me."
Feeling your cheeks burn with embarrassment, you nuzzled against Miguel, agreeing to his offer. Hopefully with Miguel helping you, there will be less heats.
Ha.

astro observations: Venus edition
I do $15-20 birth chart readings so message me if you want yours done <3
Tumblr media
🌸 Aries Venus: Aries Venus’s are super passionate and romantic due to that fiery aspect of Aries. This can make them intense and enthusiastic. As such, they’re forward and quick with their approach to love. However; they’re constantly on the go. They need constant stimulation to be interested in someone. They want someone spontaneous who they can have a lot of fun with. If not, they get restless or bored. They get impatient quickly as they require constant adventure and excitement in their relationships in order to function.
🌸 Taurus Venus: Taurus Venus’s are ruled by the planet of love itself! As such, they can have an eye for aesthetics and beautiful things. However, they can be slow to open up at first. They prefer the slow and steady approach to love. As Taurus is a fixed sign, it takes Taurus Venus individuals a lot to truly get over someone they love. That’s where this fixed energy comes in. It’s troubling for them to move on from people and situations. Taurus’s Venus individuals are incredibly devoted and passionate. Above all, they value stability and security in their relationships.
🌸 Gemini Venus: As Gemini is ruled by the 3rd house of communications, these people prefer someone witty that they can banter with. As such, they require mental stimulation in order to stay interested. This is why they get the stereotype that they’re constantly on the go and are hard to commit. That’s not actually true; rather, they get bored if their relationships feel like a routine as they require excitement and variety. Gemini is an air sign so these people can be very flirty and social! People are drawn to their childlike charm and their charisma! With that being said, it is true that Gemini Venus’s can take a while to commit due to that restless air energy.
🌸 Cancer Venus: Cancer Venus’s are the sweethearts of the zodiac. Cancer Venus’s are in love with the idea of love. A lot of Cancer Venus’s are super maternal. In fact, they may want a lot of kids and a big family. They are very loving and devoted, but sometimes they get too infatuated with people and fall in love with the idea of them. They tend to have rose tinted glasses when it comes to love. Cancer Venus’s tend to be nostalgic and constantly yearn for the past, so it’s hard for them to move on from people. They never let go of people/situations because they try to see the good in everyone. As Cancer is ruled by the moon, Cancer Venus’s can feel the fluctuations of the moon when it comes to their personal relationships. They require partners who can adjust to their moodiness.
🌸Leo Venus: Leo Venus’s love dramatic acts of display when it comes to love. They want someone to scream their love for them from the top of the rooftops. They need constant praise and compliments to stay interested as they have high expectations. One of their main love languages can be gift giving as they’re super big on giving back. As Leo is ruled by the 5th house of love and art, Leo Venus’s have a playful and fun-loving approach to relationships. Since Leo is a fixed sign, Leo Venus’s can be possessive over their romantic partners. They want someone who is only about them. This makes them incredibly loyal and passionate. However, pride can become an issue in their partnerships.
🌸 Virgo Venus: Virgo Venus’s crave stability and reliability in love as Virgo is an earth sign. Due to the 6th house energy of Virgo, Virgo Venus’s can be perfectionists in love. This can make them hypercritical and can drive potential lovers away. However, these individuals are very slow to open up and can be reserved in love. This is why one of their love languages can be acts of service. They love giving back to the people they care about. They’d rather small acts of service than big gestures of grand love. They show their love through being thoughtful and caring.
🌸 Libra Venus: Libra Venus’s can be highly sociable and can get along with people from all walks of life. Due to the 7th house energy, Libra Venus’s are highly devoted and relationship oriented. They thrive when they have a partner who they can share their life with. As Libra is an air sign, these individuals are incredibly flirty and charming! They can attract a lot of people due to their romantic and charming nature. However, they may be people pleasers when it comes to maintaining their relationships, so they can come off as pushovers sometimes. This is because they strive for balance and peace in their partnerships. As Libra is ruled by Venus, these individuals may have a special eye for detail and aesthetics.
🌸Scorpio Venus: Scorpio Venus’s desire a passionate and transformative love. This placement screams “ride or die”, you are very protective over the people you love. Giving very much Bonnie and Clyde. As Scorpio is a fixed sign, it takes a very long time for these individuals to move on from past relationships. This Venus sign is prone to jealousy and obsession. This Venus sign can be overly possessive over their partners as they want to “own” them. Often told that they are too “intense”. They can be very seductive and magnetic individuals. Scorpio Venus’s crave intimacy and passion above all. They’re not into superficial relationships; that want something real and long lasting. When they fall for someone, it’s something deeply felt.
🌸 Sagittarius Venus: Sagittarius Venus’s approach love in a playful and fun manner. This is why they prefer their partners to be witty and humorous. They’re optimistic and joyful in love. Due to that 9th house energy, Sagittarius Venus individuals usually fall for those from different cultures and backgrounds. They’re incredibly open minded and prefer dating someone different to them in a way. However, they do get the stereotype that they’re “noncommittal”. This stems from the fact that they value their independence and can get restless if their relationship feels stagnant. They seek a partner who they can experience adventures with and grow together spiritually. Above all, they value their freedom and independence so they need a partner who is willing to accomodate that.
🌸 Capricorn Venus: Capricorn Venus’s can be slow to open up at first as they dislike showcasing their vulnerability. They are the most likely Venus sign to be private about their love affairs. This is due to their shy and reserved nature. As Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, these individuals may prefer traditional forms of relationships; or relationships that are stable and secure. One common trait of Capricorns is that they are practical, so Capricorn Venus’s take on that role as well. This is why acts of service is one of their main love languages. They like to show up for those they care about in practical ways. As Capricorn is an earth sign, these individuals are loyal and trustworthy. They value stability and responsibility in their relationships. They have no tolerance for flaky individuals.
🌸Aquarius Venus: Aquarius Venus’s are open minded above all. They are drawn to people from all walks of life. They prefer the friends-to-lovers trope. They’d rather get to know someone on a friend level than to just jump straight into a relationship. They fall for quirky individuals who are unique in a way. Aquarius is an air sign so they make take a while to open up, but it is a fixed sign after all, so they are still incredibly devoted when in love. Due to the airiness of Aquarius, these individuals value their freedom and independence in relationships. They dislike possessive and clingy partners as they really value their own space. This is why they get the stereotype that they’re emotionally detached, which is untrue of course.
🌸Pisces Venus: Pisces Venus individuals are the hopeless romantics of the zodiac. They can have rose tinted glasses when viewing their potential partners, which can lead to them being taken advantage of or hurt. Pisces Venus individuals spend a lot of time fantasising about their idealised version of love. Their head is always in the clouds! As such, they tend to ignore red flags in relationships as they’re too preoccupied with using fantasies as a form of escapism. They have the tendency to place the needs of others before theirs. Due to that 12h energy, Pisces Venus’s seek a spiritual connection with their partner. As such, they may be drawn to partners who have a similar belief system to them. As Pisces is a water sign, they can be very compassionate lovers! They have the ability to understand what’s going on underneath the surface and they are highly sensitive individuals.

JJ would be a master at gaslighting people to get away with thing like—
'No officer I was not having sex with my girlfriend in public, I have no idea what you mean 🙄'
꧁ ୨୧ ꧂
“sex? you think we were having se— babe, you hear this guy?” he laughs, still subtly trying to do up his belt as the sheriff shines his torch through his truck window. “look, shoupe— with all due respect, i think you need’a get your mind outta the gutter. now i don’t wanna be out here airing out all my girls business but she’s a devout catholic. ya, none of that premarital stuff it’s — it’s against the rules, okay? i don’t even like sex like that— that stuff’s overrated—”
“then why was the car shaking, son? this thing was rocking back and forth so hard i thought it oughta create a pothole. are you aware this is a residential street?”
“i am— i am actually aware this is a residential street because my uncle knew a guy who lived here once. he used to cook meth outta his garage so really you’re wastin’ your time on me when you could be arresting that guy— anyway, off topic— the reason the car was rocking was because there was… a bug. on my pants…aaand, it caused some ruckus i’ll admit— you may have heard some screamin’— or other things of that… variety. but i killed the bug, so… it’s fine now. issue resolved.” he trails off, itching behind his ear.
shoupe shines his torch at you, and you look away to hide your disheveled appearance, and he turns his attention back on your boyfriend. “how’s that explain the lipstick prints all over you then, huh?”
“oh this? this isn’t lipstick— how could it be lipstick? she’s not even wearin’ any!” jj gestures to you with an obvious expression.
“yeah, not anymore, ‘cos it’s all over you.” shoupe argues.
“look, this right here is a rash, and i’m super insecure about it so i don’t really appreciate you bringin’ that up right now, shoupe.” jj forces emotion into his voice and the sheriff sighs, standing up straight from his leant over position in the window, deciding this wasn’t worth his time.
“alright, you know what— i’m gonna let it slide, kids. go…do whatever you want in the privacy of your home… and please, for the love of all things holy wear protection. this town don’t need another one of you runnin’ round for another few years. atleast let me retire first.” shoupe steps back from the truck, waving them off and jj instantly jumps to turn his keys, ready to get out of there.
“yes sir.” he resigns, before eagerly peeling the car away from the scene.

What is Edwin Payne reading? : a closer look.
Tumblr media
From the flashback scene in the show, we get this very short shot of Edwin walking down the halls. Now, what he is reading tells you all about the Dead Boy Detectives’ love for detective and adventure stories. He is carrying a penny novel! (also known as dime novel in the US- and the names are due to their cheap prices of, you guessed it! One penny or one dime each) Precisely no. 87 of the “Aldine Tip-Top Tales”.
Tumblr media
But, what were the Aldine Tip-Top Tales you might ask yourself. Well, originally the name was:
Tip Top Detective Tales and it was one of the Aldine Publishing Company's many library series produced to capture the fancy of the youth of Great Britain. This particular one ran from 1910 through 1912 when it morphed into just Tip Top Tales, produced to include stories of adventure, as well as those of criminal content. With one exception, all of the novels included in the series were published anonymously. (The exception: Glittering Gold! by Emile Gaboriau -Tip Top Detective Tales #4).
Tumblr media
The Aldine Publishing Company was founded by Charles Perry Brown (1834-1916).
Some other titles included:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But, we see Edwin reading something else:
Tumblr media
Which happens to be The Strand Magazine! And this very one for this shot.
Tumblr media
The Strand Magazine was a British monthly magazine published from january 1891 to march 1950 (711 issues) in its original version (a new version of the magazine has been edited from 1998). George Newnes Ltd. was the publisher of the magazine and it was edited by Herbert Greenhough Smith from 1891 to 1930, then by Douglas Edward Macdonald Hastings.
Arthur Conan Doyle was a huge contributor with novels, short stories, poems and articles.
The Strand Magazine was also published in the United States from february 1891 through february 1916 but with sometimes different content.
Between 1891 and 1930, The Strand Magazine published no less than
• 121 short stories
• 70 articles
• 9 novels
• 2 interviews and 1 poem written by Arthur Conan Doyle.
And just in case you did not know who Arthur Conan Doyle was, well, let me just leave some of his works here as well, originally published in the Strand:
Tumblr media
And these are just two of the infinite variety of novels Edwin Payne owns. :)
