Tyun's NSFW alphabet

He is the full package.

-> Yeonjun Soobin Beomgyu Hueningkai

○o。content warning! NSFW obvie, gn!reader, public sex, bondage, orgasm controll, VERY BRIEF mentions of anal (m!receiving), switch!Tyun, unedited

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Taehyun has a burst of energy! A total chatterbox afterwards, but the very first thing he does is to clean up any bodily fluids that might have spilled at any point during ✨the do✨, since he doesn't like to be sticky. If the sex was (semi)planned, he would have prepared wet wipes to be in close proximity, if it was completely spontaneous (or maybe at an unfamiliar place), he'd try to get a towel or tissue paper. You can just stay put and he cleans you, it's his way for showing you his pure adoration, especially if the sex was on the rough side. Afterwards he will definitely cuddle you very hard and talk your ear off, maybe he'll do some push ups.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

He loves your face, just your whole face. His favorite way to kiss you is to cup your face with both of his hands, doesn't matter if the kiss is passionate or docile. Your smile is so precious to him, he'll always look out for you and your micro expressions. Obviously he also loves to watch your face contort in pleasure, it's such a turn-on.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

If he cums, he cums hard. Lots of sperm, slight twitching. It'll take a while to get there (is it weird I hc him to be circumcised?) but it's the sexiest thing to witness. The consistency, taste and opacy wary a lot, since his diet and routines change with his schedule.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

He has a fantasy where he's blindfolded and tied to a chair, at your total mercy. The dirty part would be were you let him sit there for hours, maybe even turn on the TV for a while and just occasionally increase the vibrations of the vibrator in his ass or stroke his cock a few times. There is NO WAY he would even mention that unless you show interest in such a thing by yourself. It kind of goes against everything he expects from intercourse with you, therefore it is not something he'd need to happen anyways.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

I think Taehyun mentioned once he never had a partner? Don't quote me on that. But I honestly don't think he has a lot of experience, and the first few times can be a little bit clumsy, depending on your experience as well. But he is a fast learner.

F = Favorite position

Every position that allows him to look at your face. Usually it's missionary (convenience and he loves to spoil you) but he also likes lotus position, doggy style in front of a mirror and especially cowgirl, it's usually reserved for special occasions though.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

It highly depends on you, he can do either. He tends to be on the more serious side naturally, but if you like to laugh and giggle he is definitely not opposed to it and might even crack a few jokes after a while.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He does groom his pubic hair, keeping it clean and short shaven, but he doesn't like to be bare. He feels more masculine with a hair downstairs and wouldn't like it if you asked him to shave.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

Maybe it's because I am very vanilla and I am projecting but I think Tyuns going to be sweet and take good care of you. :( Again, if the sex is (semi) planned he will not only prepare wet wipes but also light a candle or two and spray his most used perfume on the pillows and blanket. He really likes to get you in the mood by massaging you and playing a sensual playlist he created for fucking you specifically.

J = Jack off

When he's single I don't think he jerks off a whole lot, maybe once a week, since weightlifting often time takes off the edge a young man might feel in the evenings lol. The amount per week does increase with stress though, especially if he is too busy to go to the gym.

Ever since you started to date he stopped complitely, if he's horny he's just going over to meet you. He tends to get a bad case of post nut clarity after jerking off so he keeps it minimal even on tour and usually only does it on facetime with you.

K = Kink

I see a lot of size kink with Tyun but maybe he'll also like a strong s/o? A gym buddy, someone who is at least capable of pushing him down, doesn't need to be a full head lock of course. Speaking of being held down, he is so into handcuffs and restraints, on both ends. It's the level of trust that is shared between you two that does it for him, he is sappy about that. He is giving everything of himself in that moment to you (or vise versa), there is nothing more romantic and intimate as that?

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

He is definitely not an exhibionist, and prefers a controlled environment, but he still likes to be a little unconventional to spice things up. The balcony, the back of a car, someones bedroom at a party, an empty beach, the park bench during a midnight stroll... They're all valid choices for him. But his favorite place will stay a big king sized bed with lots of pillows.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Seeing you dress up for any event really, doesn't matter if someones wedding, a job interview, a night out with your friends or a date with him, he always imagines how he will fuck you in that outfit you are currently wearing.

Domesticity is also a huge turn on, in one moment you do the dishes the next he has you panting for air. Don't fold the laundry in front of him you will have sex on it and you will have to wash them again.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Might be projecting but he wouldn't do anything that demeans or humilates either one of you. No spitting or slapping the face, no demeaning insults (Maybe something along the lines of "You are being slutty today." is okay since it implies that you are indeed not a slut, but he wouldn't look at you with a straight face and call you a bitch or a slut.) and not acting like one of you is superior to the other. Sex is intimate and romantic, anything demeaning would take him straight out of the moment and make him feel unsafe and unloved.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

He does tend to give since he just loves to take good care of you, but he doesn't have a preference in actuality, as long as you both get to cum anything is fine with him.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

It's obvious from the previous answers but he is definitely a more sensual guy, taking his sweet sweet time. He can definitely be more rough if the mood calls for it though.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

You'll have a lot of oral sex with Tyun, often times you won't even have penetrative sex especially if it's supposed to be a quickie, since he tends to take a little longer to cum and just likes to be thorough with you, sex is a way to convey his love to you after all. But generally he doesn't mind them, they would just be... medium quick.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

He doesn't mind taking a little bit of a risk when doing it outside (they're still semi-controlled spaces tho), but in general he likes to play it safe. He wouldn't be able to enjoy it if he needed to think of your safety.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Taehyun lasts a while. He can pull it out, cooldown a little bit and then continue on as if he wasn't almost there. He can definitely prolong his orgasm for a good few hours. Even after he already came, if you give him a moment he can get hard again, he might not cum a second time but it's definitely enough to fuck you for a while longer if that's what you wanted. Thanks to that boost of energy he is also still in to pleasure you with his mouth.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

He doesn't have any and isn't all too adament on using them but he is definitely willing to if you show interest in them, especially if it is something both of you can use.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

He loves to tease you, especially when massaging you (yes Tyun and massaging is a fantasy of mine, how could you tell). He brushes against your sweet spots, takes a little longer massaging your ass. When you are out partying he will kiss your neck and hands in a way he knows you like, keeping a hand on your thighs everytime you sit down with your friends.

In bed he also likes to not only prolong his own orgasm but also yours, sometimes stopping everytime your crys get louder or your thighs start to shake.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Not very loud, more of a heavy breather. Sometimes he will whine, especially if you are in charge. Close to his orgasm he will moan cutely, he can get quite loud if you edged him for a while.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

It's 2am, my creativity has wourn off. He wears boxer briefs, he has both brands and no name. He gets turned on by clothes and although likes to be fully naked for the sensuality of things, sometimes he prefers you to keep on your underwear.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

13-15cm, a satisfactory length, neither overwhelming nor underwhelming. Again I kinda hc him to be circumsized? If not, he doesn't have a lot of foreskin. He has a slight curve and his cock tends to sit stiffly upwards against his tummy rather than forward, if that makes sense. It's the same color of his skin only the head is pink. His balls are on the smaller side.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Generally not as high, he kind of adapts to you since he gets easily turned on. It's not that he always wants it though, if you want him, he gets excited. He is a simple man.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

Not quickly at all! He can stay up for a while, he might even get up and do some chores around the house the moment you fell asleep. He tends to stay away from doing it when it's too late for that exact reason, it's also not easy for him to get it up if he is already very tired.

✨ if BTS were the bridge crew of a Star Trek ship ✨

I have spent an absolutely u n h i n g e d amount of time on this

setting this in the 2370s, on a Lotus Flower class starship (bc how could I not?) with an exploration mission LET'S GO

Captain Kim Namjoon (obviously). A Bajoran, deeply philosophical & anti-imperialist. Top of his Academy class, just made Captain. USS Bangtan is his pride & joy, but his real devotion is to his crew, especially his 7-man bridge crew. His typical uncool Captain hobby (they all have one) is reciting poetry.

XO Commander Jung Hoseok, 2nd in command. Human, curious & deceptively hardy. Joon's details guy. Runs the crew with an effective combination of terrifying strictness & genuine love. Might close his eyes & hold on tight during ship maneuvers, don't call attention to it. Idolised by the junior bridge crew.

Chief Engineer Min Yoongi. Human, but raised Caitian (his parents were Federation citizens living on Cait, he went to Caitian nursery and school, had all Caitian friends and babysitters). People find him impossible to read; this is partly by his design & partly bc his body language is literally catlike. Genius engineer who secretly loves being relied on for miracles, but complains constantly. Very protective. The earpiece is so he can listen to music while he works; you know things are really fucking serious if he takes it out.

Chief Medical Officer Lt. Commander Kim Seokjin. His job consists of saving lives and yelling at people for being excessively heroic. The only one who can overrule Joon, if medically necessary. Enjoys spending time on the bridge making unhelpful jokes. Has ALL the best holosuite programmes. Told half the ship that the old-fashioned glasses are just for show because he likes the vintage aesthetic and the other half that they've got state-of-the-art micro-scanners for instant diagnostic information relay. Actually he's short-sighted but doesn't want to tell his patients he hasn't gotten around to getting that fixed yet.

Chief Comms Officer Lieutenant Park Jimin. Human-Betazoid, with empathetic psychic abilities. The ship's literal mood-maker. Adores his job, which he sees as "getting the whole galaxy to like him". Absolutely fantastic at first contact. Inseparable from Tae; they were the only two half-humans in their Academy class. Jimin had a harder time at school, despite not standing out so much visibly, and has absolutely flourished now he's found his place.

Chief Tactical Officer Lieutenant Kim Taehyung. Human-Orion & more than willing to use anti-Orion prejudices to manipulate situations. He plays up his sexy, sultry, vague persona, but his crew knows he's exceptionally hard to deceive or outmanoeuvre. Deadly loyal, especially to Jimin. Has a reputation for bending the rules, but it's hard to argue with his results.

Helmsperson Ensign Jeon Jungkook. Vulcan, very physically strong, mildly confused by everyone. Ace pilot, set Academy records in piloting & martial arts. It's his first day on the job, first ship, first crew, & he's so determined to impress his hyungs he's kinda scaring them!

#bts fanart #bts fanfic #bts #bts AU #TrekTan #Star Trek AU #serious I spent so long on this #like a really really ridiculous amount of time #but I love these images #and hey I'm on holidays #what are holidays for if not for creating weird BTS AUs

The Man Who Sold The World | Luke Castellan

Spotify Playlist Link

Katherine. She was the one who started it all for Luke Castellan, the reason he did what he did.

Warnings: Mature themes/language. Violence. Sexual content.

Chapter Eighteen

Chapter Nineteen: Time Lost

Katherine Montalvo had partied herself into oblivion. For the past fifteen days, she’d done nothing but dance on tabletops and occupy seats at various poker tables.

Everything was lost on her; the bright Vegas lights all around her had dulled all of her senses and replaced all of her inhibitions with excitement. Just about every remnant of her rough past was gone. All she was aware of were the bright lights, cash being passed pack and forth, and the strong drinks being served to her.

Katherine hadn’t felt like this in a long time; she hadn’t felt like a true party girl in a long time, and she certainly hadn’t felt like a star in a long time. But still, there she was, being treated like one. Just about everyone in the room was cheering for her like she was throwing her own concert as she danced on top of the bar, micro skirt swaying like a flag everyone stood to salute as she moved.

Eventually, she surrendered to the excess and opulence around her entirely as a nearby waitress handed her another profoundly delicious, flower-shaped cookie. Cash, ones to twenties to hundreds, were all being thrown up at her as she danced aimlessly while the bartender served.

She had almost forgotten that she was apparently singing, something she couldn’t even remember the last time she did, as the whole room showered her with dollar bills and affection. Everything felt like heaven; her surroundings all felt like she was on ecstasy. The lights were bright, the music and the ambience sounded amazing, and the mystical but seductive aroma wafting through the air made her weak.

Katherine was screaming whatever random club song was playing at the top of her lungs over all the other drunk people, accepting a beer from one of the other patrons beneath her feet, dancing all Coyote Ugly as she teasingly sank to her knees, pouring the liquid all over her white top as the crowd went insane. Her kitten heels swept over the bar as she danced, her body moving freely and enthusiastically, until she froze.

She stopped dead, seeing a strangely familiar face out in the crowd, behind all the screaming girls and drunk guys. The face didn’t register with her completely at first. She knew it was someone she’d known, but how, she couldn’t think up an answer right away. But after a minute of just standing there much to everyone’s confusion, Katherine stepped down from the bar as she realized she suddenly found like she was in love.

She slowly pushed her way through the crowd, pink, purple, and blue beams shining her eyes as she traced the tall figure to the back of the room.

“Hey,” she breathed, smiling coyly.

Luke Castilian looked at her in confusion, a mixture of emotions that she didn’t understand on his face. He had searched and scoured room after room looking for her, praying she was alive.

“Katherine,” he tried to hold her attention, hands placed firmly on her shoulders. “Are you okay?”

He feared for her safety as he gradually guided her away from the rest of the people in the room.

“Yeah, I’m fine… Luke,” his name slowly came back to her.

“We need to go. Okay?” he said gently but firmly.

“Why?” Katherine pouted, brushing back a strand of wet hair. “I like it here…”

“That’s the point, Katherine. You’re in the lair of the Lotus Eaters, remember?” he tried to get through to her. “They lure people into their traps with fun, and comfort. This is a trap; you’re in a trap.”

“I don’t care!” she scoffed, still angry at him for interrupting her good time.

Luke did his best to hold onto her, recognizing that the last thing he wanted was to lose her in the crowd.

“It’s fun! Come on!” she pleaded, tugging on his shirt like a child. “Let’s go dance! It’ll be fun…”

“Hey. Look at me,” Luke said desperately, as she only stared into his blue eyes with a playful lust. “Remember! You’re Katherine Montalvo, daughter of Nemesis. You were lured into the lair of the Lotus Eaters. You need to leave.”

“But I don’t wanna go,” she pouted. “Come on, baby, just have a drink. Loosen up.”

“No. Look at me, Katherine! I need you to come back with me!” he yelled in frustration. “I need you! I love you!” he begged her.

He could feel the tension rising in his chest as he looked at her, not recognizing the completely soulless person he saw.

“I need you too, baby,” she promised him, her eyes heavy with allure, as she hooked a finger beneath his tight black shirt. “Come have a drink with me. Just one drink…”

“No. Katherine, we’re leaving,” Luke declared stubbornly.

“No! I’m not going!”

“Okay, listen…”

“I’m not going!”

Luke sighed inwardly as he slowly scanned the bar area, trying to determine the most efficient course of action. Feeling he didn’t have any other options as all of the ‘casino employees’ around him began to stare, he sighed as he threw her over his shoulder, carrying her out like a giant mannequin.

“Hey! What are you doing?!” she screamed. “Put me down!”

Luke was hoping that with all the madness happening around them, nobody would notice the scene she was making, but unfortunately, they did notice. At least the ones in charge of the whole operation. Luke sighed heavily as he drew Backbiter from his pocket, allowing the double-edged blade to extend into the fearsome weapon he’d come to connect with.

The monsters in the form of casino employees closed in around him, looking ready to charge as he held the sword in his hand, keeping Katherine balanced on his shoulder as she kicked and screamed at him.

“We’re going to have to ask you to put her down,” one of the men told him.

“No,” Luke said simply, sword ready.

The Lotus Eaters surrounding him all recoiled slightly at the sight of his sword. Even monsters felt the energy coming off of Backbiter; it was a weapon they recognize as a match for them. Even monsters could tell that it was an evil sort of weapon, even forged from blood.

Before Luke could get a handle on things, Katherine managed to jump down from his shoulder, lipstick tube flicked open into a long spear as she realized the danger they were in. She had sprung to life the second Luke’s life was threatened, and he saw the darkness return to her eyes as she remembered who she really was.

The Lotus Eaters all charged as Katherine backed up, covering Luke’s back as they fought them off together. Luke ducked a heavy blow as Katherine swung her spear around, taking off one of their captors’ arms as they fought their way toward the door.

Katherine and Luke slashed and killed their way out the front door, running as fast as they could.

“Go!”

Katherine yelled loudly as she swung her spear overhead, allowing Luke to take her keys to her car, which he’d found abandoned for some reason a few minutes away. Katherine impaled whatever she could, violently ripping her spear out of a now dead corpse as Luke started the car. Seeing her chance, she ran to the other car door, quite literally jumping in as she slammed the door shut before anything could get the chance to run out.

Luke pealed away immediately, driving fast, beyond any speed limit as he kept his eyes trained on the road. He weaved around the other cars on the road, ignoring all the loud honks and eventual sirens. It wasn’t too long before he reached the highway, the two of them panting softly.

“I’m sorry,” Katherine breathed, eyes wide with horror. “I’m sorry I left. And I’m sorry I got myself stuck…”

“I don’t care,” Luke sighed with relief, directing his attention to her as he drove. “You’re alive. I don’t care about anything else,” he assured her.

Katherine nodded, eyes closing as she felt her own guilt worsening.

“I love you,” he reminded her, as she looked back up at him. “I love you.”

She gratefully accepted the olive branch, nodding as she held back tears.

“I’m so sorry I yelled at you,” Luke told her, his face contorted with distress. “You didn’t deserve that. Any of that. I shouldn’t have treated you that way, and I’m so mad at myself—”

“It’s okay,” Katherine said through tears, “It’s okay. You lost a baby too.”

Luke nodded silently, trying to remember which direction to drive in.

“How about we take some time for ourselves?” he suggested, not feeling the need to return to camp yet. “Why don’t we just go somewhere quiet, you and me, and take a breather? For a couple weeks, or something?”

“Okay,” she nodded, appreciating the thought more than she could express. “Let’s do it.”

She appreciated his thoughtfulness more than anything else about him. She knew she was Luke’s world; everything was about her, and at one, their baby, too. And she felt the same way about him, hating herself every time she missed an opportunity to show him how much he truly meant to her.

“There’s some extra clothes in the back,” Luke told her, seeing her now see-through white top that smelled like the floor of a bar.

“Thank you,” she said genuinely, not referring to just the clothes as she reached into his bag, pulling out one of his grey T-shirts. “How did you get here?” she asked, realizing he was driving her car.

“My dad’s shoes,” Luke told her, as she looked down at his feet by the pedals.

Katherine was once again astounded by him, realizing he’d gotten all the way to Vegas via flying shoes from Hermes.

“You… You flew all the way here?” she looked at him in awe.

“I had to,” he said, as if it were the obvious answer. “You needed me.”

“I did,” Katherine agreed, her brown eyes locked on his. “More than I knew.”

He nodded, smiling softly as he realized nothing had ever happened to the eternal spark that lingered between them.

“I’m sorry I didn’t make you feel safe the way I should’ve,” he said. “I never want to make you feel like I don’t see the way you care for me. And the way you cared for the baby,” he added.

“It’s okay,” she murmured, understanding the depth of his apology. “It’s not your fault it feels like the world’s caving in on me.”

“If the world’s caving in on you, then I guess that makes me Atlas,” he told her, a twinkle momentarily appearing in his blue eyes to match his smile.

Katherine nodded, her eyes filling with tears as she remembered the story of the man who was forced to carry the world on his back as Zeus’s eagle picked his insides out over and over again every day. There was no doubt in her mind that he would’ve done so for her.

“I’m in love with you, Luke,” she reminded him. “And nothing could ever change that.”

He nodded, accepting the fact as he steered with one hand, the other holding tight to her thigh, her skin warming his.

r, t, h, and n in the alphabet smut for Gun plsss

Here it is, hope you like it Anon 😊

𝐆𝐮𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐀𝐥𝐩𝐡𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐦𝐮𝐭

— Gun Park x Female Reader

ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢꜱ : Gun H, R, T Smut Headcanons.

ɴᴏᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ʟᴏᴛᴜꜱ : Sorry for being late. Was really stressed with school and shit. This is a part of this game and you can read the other works here. Enjoy ♡

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He is well groomed and shaved. He uses expensive shaving creams and luxurious razos to shave. He would shave whether he has a partner or not.

Gun does grow hair on his chest. A lot. But even there he likes to shave thrice a week. So, yeah. Gun is pretty groomed.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

I would not say that he likes to take any risk. He just does not give two shits about anyone walking in on you two. He is Gun Park, The Shiro Oni. He can always break a few bones and get away with it.

For experiments however Gun does mind if you want to spice up your sex life even more. He can always consider your ideas.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

Honestly? Gun does not have any toys. He always prefers the original thing. If he wants to get laid, he can always visit a brothel or club and girls would hanging swooning over him. If he has a partner. He would always fuck you.

Do you have toys and what he thinks about that? Gun is not really pleased. He thinks he himself is enough for you. So, when he got home after a long day and found you on the bed, naked, getting off of a vibrator, he was shocked. Was he not enough for you? He doubted for a micro second.

But after that he made sure to fuck you till you are in so shape or state of walking for the next few days. After all a plastic machine can't compare to him.

Look, I get adaptation. But why does Percy and the gang know who all the bad guys are right away and know how to avoid the traps?! Medusa ... the Lotus Hotel ... Crusty... c'mon.

😭😭😭

That's where tension and excitement comes from. Mystery. The slow unfolding of information and, in this case, mythology. Greek mythology and literally the show's internal mythology.

I wonder how well non-book readers are following the plot or how invested they are in the characters when most of the character growth moments have been cut down or cut out entirely.

I feel like I'm only getting the gist of it all because I know the stories and characters already.

Why are they cutting it all so short!?

And then... there's an issue with pacing. Not just on the series overall side. But on a micro scale between and during scenes. Like things need to be tightened up, or sped up a bit. There's a weird lethargy to scenes where there should be urgency and momentum instead.

NSFT ALPHABET: WARDEN OF THE WEST!ELAYNA

Real quick. General content warning in that, obviously, this is NSFT. But also. A lot of Elayna’s feelings about sex are skewed by the fact she was actively fighting in a war from 12-14, and she is also the cause for said war. So. Nothing is explicitly stated but be warned that Elayna might have some trauma response that might strike a chord

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Okay so. This is necessary for Elayna. It's not optional. Elayna doesn't open up to a lot of people to begin with, and it takes even more to get to the point of sleeping with her. Even then, Elayna gets insecure and can even bet anxious. It doesn't matter how vanilla the sex is, Elayna needs aftercare

All that being said. Once Elayna feels safe and reassured, she's extremely cuddly. She lets her defenses down and is just. Ridiculously clingy but in a cute way. She'll literally lay on top of her partner when they say they should get up and forbid them from leaving. Yes, she will jokingly try to pull rank if they say they have to leave anyway. Forehead kisses and a promise to come right back will buy her cooperation

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Mmmmmhhhhhhmmmmm. Elayna likes her ass and legs. They don't have too many scars on them, and she likes the presence of muscle there

On her partners? Hands, particularly fingers, are the first thing she notices. She watches for dexterity from a practical standpoint. At least, that's what she says. Also, eyes and jaw. She spends a lot of time looking for micro-expressions, so she naturally notices them

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

AHAHAHAHAHAHA

So. This is a complicated one. Because, well. Elayna has a raging breeding kink but also has trust issues the size of Texas. So she's not exactly down for her partner coming inside her. She was married briefly, but they never had a child partially because of this

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Honestly? Would love to be eaten out while on the throne at Casterly Rock. I'm just gonna say it

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

Semi-experienced? Even though she was 13-14, she married her betrothed early to set their alliance. Obviously no one expected them to have kids until she was 16. They did fuck regularly but never got super adventurous

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Lotus! She loves the level of control it provides on her end while also making intense eye contact

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

Mostly serious? She can be a brat, but it takes a lot of trust and time to get to that point with her. After she's absolutely not serious. She can be a downright goober but in a cute playful way

She can be playful, though, but it's rarely in a silly fun times way

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

Very well groomed. Listen, she knows part of the role she has to play now is very ostentatious and expensive so she keeps up with it. Which includes being incredibly well groomed

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

Very romantic. Insanely romantic, actually. She'll deny it to her dying breath, but she is so romantic during it's almost sickening

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

No ❤️

Listen, Elayna is repressed as a general rule but this Elayna??? Oh man. She's got some Issues surrounding intimacy and sex. Combine that on top of being repressed???

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Okay. So she's absolutely a brat and in denial of it. She's got a praise kink a mile wide. Also, body worship can literally make her fall to her knees if it's done right

Also, and she has a lot of trouble with this one, if she's into someone, she kinda wants to be reminded she's theirs. But biting can send her into a spiral so it's a little tricky. I'm saying she'd be into collaring is what I'm saying

Oh, and edging and multiple orgasms. For both of them. Like Elayna would love to get a partner to the point of multiple orgasms ngl

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

Her chambers. She'll take her tent if it's a war situation, but it's almost exclusively her chambers. She does not play with people seeing her in a vulnerable state

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Biggest one is someone coming to her defense. And not just in a "Oh, I have to" way or a "how dare you talk to a lady" way. If someone comes to her defense, and it's genuine??? Dropping to one knee then and there

Quick wit, quick reflexes, and being intelligent are also turn on for her. She wants somebody who's not afraid of challenging her but doesn't do it in a way to prove themselves or get one over on her

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Oh baby. This is a long list. Strap in.

No hitting, punching, slapping, biting, or choking. No humiliation. No scat or water sports

The two biggest no nos are hair pulling and up against a wall. Elayna will get violent if either of those are attempted. The against the wall especially makes her violent because the last guy who pushed her against a wall was trying to kill her, and she ended up killing him. So, yk, she's gonna have flashbacks with that one

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

Receiving for sure lmao. She doesn't like to give because of some unresolved issues. She'll do it, but it's got to be on her terms

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Okay so. It depends on her mood and how much she trusts the other person? Usually it's slow and sensual but not vanilla if that makes sense? Sex is an experience to her and also a sign of full trust so she doesn't want to rush it. And she's not into being really forcefully manhandled so that complicates things

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Oh God no. Don't get me wrong, sometimes she wants one, and I think she's probably done a couple quickies but. She'd much rather wait and take time for it

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

Again, this is a depends answer. Because if she trusts someone, she's absolutely willing to take risks. But she's got to trust that person completely and utterly

She probably does want to take risks but also has so many clear boundaries it's hard to do that

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Oh, theoretically she can go for multiple! She just prefers one extended, drawn out session

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

Sorta? She's okay with light props, mostly silk ties, but she's not too wild about toys? She'll use them but it's not her favorite

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Oh 100000000% a tease. She is a brat at heart. So she loves to tease she has so much fun with it

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

She absolutely tries to be quiet until she's given permission lmao Once she's given permission she can be loud. She tends to whine more than she realizes and makes softer noises. If she's in charge, she can be a bit of a blabbermouth ngl

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

Elayna can get jealous and insecure, and so she's well versed in jealous sex. She's a fucking biter during it. She refuses to be bit, but she will bite

Also. Elayna has had some hate sex. It's not often and usually as a form of self harm because she feels so fucked up the next day but. Yeah

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

She's probably a E cup? Between putting on some weight after the war and her having muscle, she's def a high cup but small band size

Also because we're shameless about this when it comes to male characters. She's got a deep clitoral hood because why not

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Very high. Remember. She's still just a young adult in all this. She's not even 20 yet so she's insanely horny all the time. Plus she's absolutely the type to use sex as stress relief, and she is constantly being tested every day. When she's with someone she fully expects to get her back blown out at minimum every other day, every third day if things require a lot of attention. And if it's someone she trusts enough to want to have their kid? She wants to fuck before bed to wind down and then have sex in the morning

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

Lmao. It takes her a while unless whomever she's with manages to coax her deep into subspace. It does get better the longer she's with someone. She'll slowly take less and less time to fall asleep, but she's never going to conk out right away

And. Let's be real. This version of Elayna absolutely uses her post nut clarity to figure out a problem that's been bothering her. She's come up with some of her most brilliant schemes that way

Mysterious Lotus Case Book

Year : 2023 | Country : CN | Nb of episodes: 40

My rate: 7/10

Synopsis :

Ten years ago, Li Xiang Yi, the master of the Sigu Sect, dominated with his superior swordsmanship and was a symbol of light in the martial arts world. However, he suddenly disappeared along with Di Fei Sheng, the leader of the Jinyuan Alliance, after they arranged to battle in the East Sea.

Ten years later, Li Lian Hua is a countryside doctor who travels dragging around a lotus tower. He accidentally becomes "famous" and gets pulled into the pugilistic world that he no longer wants to have any connections with. Fang Duo Bing, a passionate youth who dreams of becoming a hero, realizes that Li Lian Hua is not a simple man and vows to find proof that Li Lian Hua has been impersonating a famous doctor. Meanwhile, Di Fei Sheng, who has always regarded Li Xiang Yi as a fierce enemy, has also reemerged in the pugilistic world and recognizes that the unremarkable doctor Li Lian Hua is none other than Li Xiang Yi.

After a series of cases, Li Lian Hua, Di Fei Sheng and Fang Duo Bing gradually come to forge a deep friendship and join hands in solving mysterious cases to uphold justice.

Main cast :

Cheng Yi as Li Lianhua (voiced by Cheng Yi) / Li Xiangyi

Xu Wei Luo as Li Xiangyi (teen)

Xie Zi Mo (谢子墨) as Li Xiangyi (child)

Zeng Shun Xi as Fang Duobing (Fang Xiaobao)

Lu Jin Hao as Fang Xiaobao (young)

Xiao Shun Yao as Di Feisheng

Xu Jia Xi as Di Feisheng (young)

My thoughts on this drama :

From the reviews I had read online, this was supposed to be as good at The Blood of Youth. For me, it was not. Don't get me wrong! It is a very good drama. The overall absence of romance is a big plus (it's there in the background but has no direct impact on the story itself more than in a few flashbacks that I enjoyed skipping).

What bothered me most is that the second hero was such a dimwit. All muscle no brain. Yes he's pretty young and all, but that wannabe detective was just dumb. He relied completely on Lianhua's deduction before finding the solution to all cases (but still taking all credit for solving it heh...). It took a bit too long for the big reveal of the main lead's identity, and I found truly ridiculous that his old pals did not recognize him as soon as they saw him. He was pretty much walking out there looking the same as ten year prior, sometimes wearing a mask that hid nothing.... but that's a common trope in Cdramaland so.... Big thumb up to the redemption arc of the initial "villain". The friendship born of it was amazing to see, and I was very much rooting for more interactions between the three main characters. The side characters also did their job, adding drama and comic relief to the story. The backstory that unraveled slowly up to the finale was splendidly executed, and I felt terrible for Lianhua when he realized the whole truth. I have a small regret though: for a Wuxia drama, there weren't that many awesome fights, and the rare ones were so short they lacked impact.

Anyway, it  is still a good drama, Cheng Yi prove once again that he's a true talent of this generation, and I hope to see him take one more dramas and movies (no dumb romcom) to showcase his impressive capacity to show emotions with his eyes and micro expressions. He convinced me back in Immortal Samsara, now I'm just another fan...

A Favorite ?

NO

Concept:

Somehow, Madam Yu and Jiang Fengmian are transported to Lotus Pier in the future, and Jiang Cheng now has to deal with:

1. His parents criticising/micro-managing/degrading how he’s running the sect.

2. The sheer embarrassment of suddenly being scolded in front of his disciples, his staff, his rebuilt home, and not having the authority or emotional strength to push back.

3. Having to explain exactly how their daughter died.

4. Having to explain everything with Wei Wuxian. Madam Yu snaps, “You couldn’t even keep your own golden core?” while Jiang Fengmian states he should have supported Wei Wuxian wholeheartedly (New Achievement: Temple Emotions 2.0!)

5. Having his parenting skills in regards to Jin Ling belittled by parents who managed to emotionally traumatise three kids, and having to step in so they don’t add their grandson to that list as well.

Written for @wolfstarmicrofic prompt: Blooming. One of these days I’ll actually write a microfic (key word micro). Tw: light mention of grief, depression, low self esteem. But nothing too heavy.

A scene from an AU where Sirius commissions a wizarding artist to decorate his godson’s room.

Sirius tried not to hover. Going up to the second floor to “pick up a few things” was a perfectly reasonable activity. It certainly wasn’t a terrible excuse to peek into his godson’s new room and check on the unfortunately attractive painter he had hired.

Remus Lupin. His status as a werewolf was well known among the wizarding community, but there wasn’t a better artist out there. Even the most prejudiced of wixen families had begrudgingly hired Lupin so they could show off the breathtakingly beautiful paintings adorning their children’s walls.

If Sirius had to hear one more piece of gossip about the roaring dragons on the little Malfoy’s walls, he would spontaneously self combust. To prevent this, he had finally asked his assistant to arrange for Lupin to paint Harry’s walls. He’d be damned if his little Prongslet missed out on anything, regardless of what Molly Weasley said about spoiling him. They had both already lost too much, to not have this glimpse of happiness. The poor baby already had trouble sleeping in his room, preferring to climb in with Sirius every night. But as much as Sirius loved to cuddle with his godson to soothe his own nightmares of the war, he knew Harry needed to start sleeping in his own room. He hoped that soothing wall illustrations would ease the transition.

But he didn’t know what to expect from Lupin. What if he wasn’t as good as they said? He already had reservations about anything Narcissa and Lucius held in high regard. The dragon painting was probably horrendously gaudy. It would certainly match their personalities then. Sirius snorted thinking about the pretentiousness of the peacocks wandering around the Malfoy property.

With that thought, Sirius drew himself to his full height and knocked on his godson’s door. Receiving no answer, he slowly pushed it to see Lupin calmly sketching indecipherable smudges on the wall. Sirius frowned, wondering how on earth anyone saw artistic values in the strange lines the curly haired man had drawn. A sudden surge of self disgust rose within him. Here he was, a rotten godfather, who couldn’t even commission a proper painting for his godson. What had James and Lily been thinking, appointing him?

Still receiving no acknowledgement of his presence, Sirius felt decidedly annoyed. He slightly coughed, and then cringed internally. This is what has happened to you after spending so much time arguing with Umbridge in court, he thought to himself.

Lupin turned and gave him a wry smile. “Lord Black, my apologies.”

“No worries. Is there anything you need? Tea, water?” Sirius really needed a new excuse to come back in twenty minutes. There were only so many things he could “forget” to pick up from the attic.

“No thank you,” Remus turned to face him fully now, giving him an amused look. He probably knew exactly what Sirius was up to, Sirius griped internally. It wasn’t his fault those amber eyes practically saw through him.

“Actually there is something you can help me with. On the note your assistant passed on, she said you would like a Quidditch scene as well as a garden. Do you have any specific requests for the plants?”

Lost in the curious amber eyes that gazed back at him, Sirius took a little longer to process the question.

“Lilies,” he blurted. “And then lotus, jasmine, hibiscus. The rest can be typical magical plants that would be found in India.”

Remus paused before answering. He set his paintbrush down to brush a golden curl out of his eyes, revealing more of a long silver scar running down his jaw into his shirt collar. Sirius had the sudden wild desire to kiss it all the way down to its end.

“That sounds lovely,” replied Remus softly.

The combination of realizing his attraction to Lupin as well as the topic of the flowers made it difficult for Sirius to get his words out. He quickly nodded, and moved his gaze down at Remus’s art palette.

“I’ll leave you to it then,” he choked out. He had turned to leave when he heard Remus’s voice.

“I don’t mind an audience, Lord Black,” said the artist mildly. “You can stay and watch if that’s what you prefer.”

Flushing, Sirius nodded and took a seat on the charmed rocking chair in the corner of the room. Remus watched him get settled, gave him another amused look, and turned back to the wall to return to his work.

Sirius soon found himself entranced in the artist’s confident and smooth movements. Within the hour, he could do nothing but gape at how strangely placed lines became outlines of lotus and lily flowers blooming in ponds, Quidditch players on broomsticks, and two mischevious looking Gryffindors exploring a forest.

After a few quiet hours, Remus broke the silence.

“May I ask the significance of the flowers, Lord Black?”

Sirius swallowed before responding. “My godson’s mother and grandmother. They had beautiful gardens and loved tending to them. I want him to go to sleep surrounded by their love.”

Remus’s gaze turned softer, yet without the usual pity that Sirius hated seeing in other people.

“That’s beautiful. I will do everything I can to capture your vision,” he replied. He reached out to touch Sirius’s arm, lighting a fire of desire inside the wizard.

Sirius felt the sudden urge to hug Lupin, or even better to snog his face off. And then late at night, confide all of his secrets, his desires, his worst fears to the man.

“Could I?” blurted Sirius, motioning to the space next to Remus’s stool. Remus looked surprised, but in the next moment smiled so brilliantly that Sirius almost cried at his sheer beauty.

“Please do.” As Remus returned to his work, Sirius continued to watch him paint with rapt attention, stealing looks to admire the way Remus’s face contorted into a slight frown when he perfected a tiny detail, or how his features turned relaxed and peaceful as he lost himself in the painting. Sometimes, Sirius swore he could feel the artist stealing looks at him as well.

A few years later, Sirius sat in the same position, admiring the blooming lotus flower in the painted pond. As his eyes moved toward the edge of the water to take in a miniature black haired man, a curly haired artist, and a messy haired little boy picnicking joyfully, he couldn’t help but feel that everything was going to be alright.
