LupinIII.Club Advent Calendar 2023 Days 1-6

There's a holiday event going on over at lupiniii.club where each day a piece of fanart or fic is revealed, along with a prompt! Other folks can join in if they want and do a piece for the daily prompt, which is chosen by the artist of the day! It’s been real fun to sketch these in my sketchbook every day so far.

Day 25-christmas day Eventually Faith had to have mercy on our souls, and allow us to go to bed(mostly so that she herself could sleep). The next morning we woke up to all sorts of presents under the tree. I was so excited to open mine!! I ripped the paper apart quickly, but I couldn’t hide the disappointment on my face when I saw what was inside... A new cookie jar....

Hey guys! We are excited to announce that we have enough participants to run the KakaIru Advent Calendar Battle 2023; and Week One has just commenced!

We unfortunately didn’t get all 24 slots filled, so we will be running the event with 18, instead.

The event will still run the exact same way, with people voting for their favourite tropes, and the lowest ones getting eliminated each week; however, since there’s not enough tropes to eliminate 3 every week, we will be eliminating 3 tropes for the first two weeks, and then 2 tropes from Week 3 onwards.

So now that everyone has signed up, and the event is going ahead, the only thing you have to do now is visit us at the forum once a week and vote for your favourite tropes on the list until 31st Jan!

You can VOTE HERE!

To kick off the event, mod @kakairu-shrine has also written a little something, which you can find on the voting page, or on ao3!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

We look forward to seeing you around!

It's winter season in Marada and we have SO much happening from now until December 31st, including our Secret Santa Event, our Santa Claws New Year's Raffle, Advent Calendar, Advent Tree, limited edition Account Upgrade items, Elf, Krampus, Carol Singing and so much more!

The Christmas Elf has returned to Marada just in time for Christmas! Make your account look festive with lots of red and green because Elf will be visiting profiles, looking for members with a festive themed doll and rewarding them with gifts. Elf will also be showing up on the forums with give aways for deserving players who have festive dolls, signatures and avatars. You could get rare and retired items or even a festive LE pet.

For a limited time only, the Arctic Treasure Chest and Winter Treasure Chest are back on sale at the Account Upgrades Shop. All of the old retired Carol Singing Costumes are also on sale. You will receive a random costume and this offer will also automatically end December 25th.

Come join the Elfember fun!

No More Frozen

Fanfic Advent Calendar 2022 - Day 12

Sherlock x Reader One-Shot

Read it on AO3!

Rating: E

Words: 791

Summary: Tis the season and reader wants to go do the Christmas shopping. However, Sherlock is too wrapped up in a case. But she knows just how to deal with that.

Prompt: "Do you wanna build a sno-" "Don't you dare finish that!" "Do you wanna build a snowman?" "NO MORE FROZEN!"

Warnings: unprotected sex, choking kink (mild), light dom/sub kink, Frozen

“Take a break, Sherlock,” (y/n) said, placing a steaming cup of cocoa next to him.

He said nothing.  Just picked up the mug and took a careful sip without looking away from one of several dozens of books currently scattered around the flat.

(Y/N) rolled her eyes.  “Sherlock, we have Christmas shopping to do tomorrow.  Enough with this ridiculous case! It’s just some kid not getting the attention they need at home. Those ‘riddles’ are hollow and meaningless and you bloody well know it.  It wouldn’t take you ten minutes of looking through forums to find the kid and the stolen decorations.”

He pretended not to hear her.  She was right, but he did not want to admit it.  Cases were surprisingly slow for this time of year.  He did not want to solve this one and be left with nothing to keep his mind distracted from the holiday merriment. 

Why must even crime be so boring?

Sherlock stole a glance at his girlfriend while her back was turned.  She would be good for alleviating his boredom.  But not now.  That would require him to admit that she was right and he refused to do so after being so stubborn about finishing this truly mundane case.  No, he would need to solve the case his way before caving into his desires for her.

But (y/n) was tired of waiting.  And playing nice.

Snatching up a wine bottle, she brought it to her lips like a microphone.  “Do you wanna build a snowman?”

Sherlock stiffened.  “No! Don’t you dare finish that!  I’ve had enough of that incessant film for ten Christmases!”

“Do you wanna build a snowman?” she sang again -- louder -- holding her hand out to him dramatically.

“NO MORE FROZEN!” he yelled, massaging his temples. 

(Y/N) dropped to her knees and threw her arms around him.  “It doesn’t have to be a snowman!”

He grabbed her wrists and pulled her on her back into his lap.

“Madam,” he growled as she giggled, “you’re breaking my concentration.”

She bit her lip with a grin.  “Yes…. Whatcha gonna do about it?”

His body language shifted at her words.  He knew what she wanted already.  This woman was never subtle when she wanted to fuck.  But this?  That glint in her eye.

The teasing. The challenge. 

Sherlock’s hand snaked over her body, her breasts, her throat.  He gripped it, not choking.  Just firm enough to assert his control and drive the little minx in his lap wild.  Her throat hummed against his fingers as she moaned and bit her bottom lip.

He claimed her lips.  His tongue found hers.  Her fingers locked in his curls.  His free hand gripped her thigh as he shifted them both to the floor and got between her legs.

But not once did he let go of her throat.

“Sherlock,” (y/n) moaned between kisses.  She quickly unzipped his trousers, pushing them and his boxers down just enough to free his hard cock.  “Take me, Sherlock!”

Lifting the skirt of her dress, he moved her panties aside and easily slid inside her dripping pussy.  He moaned at the combined feeling of her walls holding his length and her grip on his hair tightening when he brushed over her inner sensitive spot.

“Make me yours,” she begged as he began thrusting.

His grip on her throat tightened just enough to emphasize his words.  “You’re already mine, little minx.”

Their bodies writhed together in harmonized pleasure.  Chasing that high of ecstasy without rushing the adventure.  Kisses and nips found every reachable inch of skin.  Hands wandered, squeezed, and teased.

Except one.

She giggled when he traced his tongue around the hand on his throat.

“You like that?” he teased, damn well knowing the answer from the way her pussy fluttered and clenched on his cock. 

“Mmm yes!”

Feeling her orgasm rise, she wrapped her legs around his waist.  He sped up his pace. 

He buried his face in her neck, moaning in her ear.  She screamed his name, back arching off the floor.  A few more thrusts took them through their climaxes.

After a few moments, Sherlock pulled away and brought her back in his lap -- sitting up this time.

“Are you through singing awful kids’ music?” he asked, one eyebrow raised.

(Y/N) laughed.  “Are you done with this child’s play case?”

He looked down at her rumpled dress.  “Do I get more of this in exchange for closing the case?”

She draped her arms around his neck and leaned forward to whisper in his ear, “What do you think?”  She nipped at his earlobe before tracing kisses over his jaw to his lips.

He slammed his laptop shut as his cock hardened once more. “Done.”

Good things to come!

I'm participating in a an advent calendar swap with my beloved crafts forum this year and making many fine things for that currently. I've given my blog as reference what I like though, so I can only show you what I'm making for it afterwards. But you better believe I'm drafting many posts to show off my handmade goodies!! ^_^

I'll also show off what's in my advent calendar (the one I'll receive in the swap) come December, but I'll share a couple of days at once and not daily probably.

Day 21- in a puff of...flour? Things start to get heated, as theories are thrown around. Everyone seems to have a different opinion of what really happened. It was too chaotic to know how it started. Perhaps it was a mistake, but the next thing I knew the kitchen became a war zone. Food was flying everywhere. Whip cream sprayed all over the counter, chocolate splattering the walls, cherries squished all over the floor. Then there was a cloud of white, as a bag of flour was ripped open. Just in time for the door to open....

A Guide to Abbreviations and Terminology on Chicken Smoothie

Ah, yes! CS abbreviations. There are so many, lol, especially trading lingo. Let's see...

Pets' Growth Stages

OK, to start off there are a handful of easy abbreviations that refer to pets' growth stages:

PPS / EPPS / and kinda, sorta GUPPS

PPS stands for Peter Pan Syndrome and refers to a pet that will never grow to an adult stage. It's usually an "outcome" in a litter that is a little special like that c: Most (but not all) PPS pets will have that abbreviation on the pet image, and the pet info page will say: "PPS This pet has "PPS". What's that? Here's a PPS pet from February:

EPPS is a term that means "early" or "extreme" PPS and is used to refer to PPS pets that never grew from their newborn/first stage. Here's an EPPS pet from February:

Finally, GUPPS stands for "grown up" PPS. This one's a bit weirder because it refers almost exclusively to pets that are released during the advent calendar, when artists of a PPS pet released earlier in the year choose to create an adult version of it. For example, this puppy was originally released in Oct. 2023, then the artist made a "grown up" version for the Advent Calendar in December. The grown up version is a GUPPS:

Trading

The shorthand "WL" stands for "Wish List." The acronym "FTT" stands for Fair-Trade Thread, which is a very popular and useful thread on the forum where you can post a link to a trade you sent or received, and other users will give their opinion on whether it seems fair or not. Some users refer to duplicate pets of the same outcome as "dupes."

Trading Status There are also some shorthand terms users will write into their pet names or pet group names that give you an idea of their trading status, like:

HTTF - "hard to trade for"

VHTTF - "very hard to trade for"

NFT - "not for trade"

UFT - "up for trade"

UFA - "up for auction," or sometimes, in the free adoptions forum board "up for adoption"

Pets' Rarities There are a handful of very easy-to-learn abbreviations that refer to pets' rarities:

OMGSC - OMG So Common

EC/XC - Extremely Common

VC - Very Common

C - Common

UC - Uncommon

VUC - Very Uncommon

EU/EUC/XUC - Extremely Uncommon

R - Rare

VR- Very Rare

ER - Extremely Rare

OMGSR - OMG So Rare

High Value Trades This is where things start to get complex. I'll explain some abbreviations that are common when trading high value pets, but if you start getting confused about what even is happening at this stage, don't stress about it: we can go over how high value trades work and whatnot in the future, if you like c:

High Value Pets Usually, the user base will agree on names for certain pet litters and outcomes to make trading and talking about pets easier. So if someone says "White February," I know they're talking about this white wolf that was originally released in 2009.There are certain high-value pets that come up so often in discussion that users have shorthanded their names into acronyms. Here are some popular examples I can think of:

BA - Black advent

BMD - Bernese mountain dog

TWA - Timberwolf advent

RBM - Rainbow mane

GWJ - Growing white July

BEG - Black-eyed galaxy

CEG - Clear-eyed galaxy

GSD - German Shepherd Dog

WWA - Winged wood angel

(Tangent: if you know the year and month a pet was released but not their (un)official name, there's a really cool archive run by CS users called Chicken Smoothie Transpets that basically functions like the archive, but it lists the widely agreed-upon names of relevant pets, including the acronyms!).

High Value Worth Shorthands Because trading high-value pets on CS can be a bit complex (since we don't know exactly how much rarer certain pets are compared to others; we only know estimates according to their rarity labels), there have been user researched and made guides to trading OMGSR and ER pets taking into account their demand and estimating how many are found up for trade. The current such guide that seems to be popular right now is Horror's [🐝] Guide to Trading Every Pet on CS. In order to trade certain high-value pets for others at the more or less agreed upon values, most of the userbase use certain labels to describe a pet's worth:

OR - Stands for Old Rares and refers to rare pets from 2010-2011

MA - Is equal in worth to 10 ORs. It stands for "Mid Advent," mostly as a leftover term from an older guide. It's not really important to know exactly why this term is used, and I feel like I am already giving you too much info, so maybe I can tell you the story another time XD. MAs are used to measure the more valuable pets on the site.

Non - Is equal in worth to 10 MAs (or 100 ORs). The term comes from the unofficial names of some of the earliest dogs to be released on CS.

True Date, Un-Released and Re-Released Pets Lore - December 18th is a really exciting day for the whole CS userbase. It is the day. The only day when all users have a chance to adopt pets that were released on previous years and are no longer available though the Adopt page. It is the only day you can adopt a very rare or more valuable pet reliably on the site—I hope you're around for that!

RR - Pets from previous years that are adopted on Dec. 18th are called Re-released pets, or RRs.

TD - In contrast, pets that were adopted in the month and year when they were originally released are called True Date pets, or TDs.

UR - Finally, Un-released pets, or URs are also adopted only on December 18th, but unlike every other pet given out on that day, UR pets have never been released normally before. They are always extremely rare and valuable. You can find the UR pets released each year under the "Special Releases" tab of the archive.

COPPA Sorry for the info-dump. Take a breath, we're back in easy territory c: You may see users mention COPPA users in their tarde rules and such. The acronym stands for "Children's Online Privacy Protection Act." To comply with this act, CS allows kids under 13 years old in the US to make an account and collect pets, but not to participate in the forums or write trade messages.

And, well, that's probably too much information already! But I hope you find it helpful. And if you have any questions about any abbreviation or terminology being used around the site, don't hesitate to ask. I promise to return a shorter answer next time! Let me know what else I can help out with or if you want to dig deeper into any of the subjects I mentioned above. c:

Sim Pearls

I feel I must say something regarding the recent events at Sim Pearls Forum.

Firstly, I have the utmost respect for both szanne7000 and 13pumpkin31 and I will most certainly always treasure both friendships. I will never take sides, but I feel that I must defend szanne7000 in regards to her character.

While I don't know all the details of what transpired between both parties, I don't like the sledging going on of szanne7000. I can emphatically state that she would never use Tumblr, Instagram or any other platform to speak badly of anyone.

Suzanne was so excited about this Advent Calendar, which she painstakingly invited designers to take part in, purely for Members of the Sim Pearls Forum and I might add, these designers all accepted willingly because of her huge heart and friendly nature. This has nothing to do with money, it's a gesture that has taken a huge amount of organising, time and effort, never once did I hear a word of complaint from Suzanne even when she was working through until 4 am to get the job done.

I know there was a comment made regarding one of the designers gift's and Suzanne acted as any forum owner would do, after all, she had invited these guests to the forum. Put in her place, I'm sure most would do the same thing.

Suzanne with the help of her brother are not only keeping the forum open, but are trying to make this a nice relaxing and friendly place to visit and I for one, certainly feel welcome.

I don't really celebrate Christmas, but I think it's that time of the year to reflect and be kind to each other ❤️
