หโยท ออออโณโฅ CONTENT WARNINGS: 18+!!! fem!reader. references to breasts/pussy. you send nudes to reigen and reigen leaves you a nice lil voicemail.
despite all your urging, reigen just will not upgrade from that flip phone of his so you have to resort to the only alternative you have: email. because you are not about to send a top-tier nude only for it to get compressed to hell and back by the archaic technology's pixel limitations.
( ๐จ YOU'VE GOT MAIL! )
you're a fiend when it comes to teasing reigen; you don't just stop at one nude. no, no- that's no fun. the first of many in the email thread starts tame enough but it's still wickedly enticing: a mirror selfie, showing you with the same tussled hair you woke up with and dressed in nothing but one of reigen's sleep shirts. the bottom hem is riding up just enough to give him an appetizing view of your thighs but just you in his shirt is enough to drive him wild. he's in front of a client when he gets the email notification and he knows your scheme but he can never resist opening any message from you up as soon as he receives it. it's fine, he can recover.
the second image is another mirror selfie, the motif for the day it seems. only now the shirt is raised, your panties on full display. he has to minimize the window fast, lest he incur further damage than the twitch in his pants.
the third is the first with a caption: "miss you arataka" the shirt's long been tossed aside, but instead of seeing the matching bra to your underwear, he's given an eye full of your bare breasts. your free hand has one of your tits squeezed, the expression on your face impish because you know reigen is going to go so red, so hot that steam will practically be shooting from his ears. you're right, but now reigen has to relieve himself in the bathroom because if he doesn't, he'll still be hard by the time his next appointment comes in.
the last is the piece de resistance: a video. like all the others, you're still in front of the mirror and perched at the end your bed. you have your legs spread, giving the camera (and reigen) a perfect view of your dewy pussy, your clit puffy as you roll circles around the hood with your index finger. the phone captures your breathy moans perfectly, picking up on every incantation of arataka and every rolling groan. you grind your hips against your own hand, lightly so as not to lose your balance but the friction is enough for you to bite your lip. the video abruptly ends, much to reigen's behest.
and he's sure to let you know his dismay.
because reigen doesn't prefer to send nudes. no, his form of phone sex is voicemails.
"oi- what's going on today?" you can hear the cling of his belt buckle in the background. "you know i'd go home to you but every client's confirmed today... this'll have to do." the last sentence is more for him than you. you hear the rustling of his slacks, the relief in his groan when he finally frees his aching cock. reigen spits into his hand p-tuhh! and then you hear the squelch of his strokes, the sound getting louder and faster by the second. "hhhnn-- haah-- haah," now his noises are getting you going. "you look so good. hngh, need to fill you up. you better be ready for me when i get home." he grunts and you hear a thump! as his back falls to the wall, reigen's pants a continued soundtrack as he masturbates to the pictures and videos you spoiled him with throughout the day. this doesn't go on for long, it's hard for reigen to contain himself when it comes to you. and so, the finale to his voicemail is the delicious sound of him cumming, no doubt into his own hand, all the while he croons your name. "see you in a bit." he rasps into the phone's microphone before you hear a click.
*โห๐ฌเญง hehehe last piece for the year! thank you to everyone for all your encouragement, laughs, and love. it means the world to me and i hope we get to bond more over stupid sexy animemen in 2023. also not sober atm so THIS IS NOT PROOF READ AIGHT!!!

Avenger!reader & Rossโ kids sneaking onto a mission with their parents would look like:
How the heathens managed to find yโall is a mystery of its own. You donโt know how to react first: with praise or with anger.
To paint the picture, you and Ross are undercover in a conjoined mission between the Avengers & CIA. The target in question is someone suspected of harboring a fugitive with intel of the super soldier serum created in Madripoor. After Sam and Bucky had settled the issue in New York, you both were sent to recover the fugitive in a manner lowkey as possible.
What neither you--nor your agencies--could prepare for was your children tracking y'all down.
You may be an Avenger (highly skilled and known to put fear in God themself) but at the end of the day youโre a parent first. So, it is no surprise when you lose your shit on the children who infiltrated the highly classified mission you and your husband were on. "I don't want to hear it." "But we just thought--." "And now I have to hear it."
Like you, Everett was very displeased and had to hold his tongue. You already unleashed your wrath he felt maybe it was a good idea to calm the situation than escalate it further by grilling them. He did, however, make his frustration and disappointment known, "We raised you to know better. What the hell were you thinking?! This is not only dangerous, but illegal!"
Your daughter, who you both know had interest in working for Intelligence, immediately went into explanation mode. The excuse they gave--besides missing y'all and worrying about you both not coming home---was that she and her brother could help in the undercover mission. "How exactly do you plan to do that? You haven't even finished high school." "No, but we're already your kids. How hard is it to play the role of a family?"
For your son, he had always wanted to test out the gadgets he'd made. This was his opportunity, but your concern was someone getting hurt since they had not been tested in a concealed environment. Ross agreed, which only had your son pouting. "But dad, think of how useful they can be?" "Son, we're already expecting to go to jail for even considering letting you both help...but we will be sent to the Raft for allowing you to use those when they have not been approved by the Director."
Several times during the mission you about lost it when your daughter or son scurried off. They'd return with new information, completely shocking you both wondering just how the hell they managed to get it. "Where did you hear this?" "That man told the guy beside him. I pretended to read my book and sat at the table right next to them. They didn't pay me any mind."
At one point you did receive a message from Fury asking why his sources are telling him your son was spotted at y'alls location to which you played dumb and prayed he'd dismiss it. Which he did....cause Fury just wants the job done by any means necessary.
Eventually, after several minutes of going back and forth and deciding not to strangle your kids for being so irresponsible, you eventually agree to their plan. This decision of course came with some ground rules. "You will do as we say--and do not act without permission. The second you do something that results in either of you getting hurt, I will personally be calling the U.S military to get your asses out of here." "Yes ma'am/sir"
By some grace of God, the mission was a success. No one, thankfully, was hurt--except for the associates of the man you and Ross were looking for in a hand-to-hand battle that left your kids speechless from their hiding space. The suspect was contained and transported to the Embassy, you and Ross collected your children and had a dinner involving take out and sodas.
The adrenaline your children experienced was enough to confirm that both wanted to pursue careers in espionage and intelligence. Something you and Everett were concerned about initially, but after seeing them and realizing they were equipped the skills needed to be successful agents/spies, you both accepted the inevitable.
"We did good, didn't we honey?" Ross kissed your temple, clicking his glass with yours as you leaned into his side from your spot watching your kids reenact the fight between you and the bad guys. "We sure did. Who would've thought we'd become a family of spies after all?"
Receive any messages you need to hear right now - these could be from your guides, ancestors, the universe, or anyone you specifically want to hear from.
What event or person is coming towards you? In the next 6 months? In the next year? An explanation of the event and/or person is given along with why it and/or they are coming in and what you need to be prepared to do and/or learn.
You can ask about what career you should go into or about a career you're interested in. In this reading, I explain what career (or if the career you're thinking of) would be good for you, how you would perform, how you would be seen in the workplace, how you could climb up the coproprate ladder, and you can also ask one extra question.
You can add on more questions for $2.22 per question.
You'll receive some knowledge about your maternal and paternal lineage along with a general message from both lines regarding how you're currently living, what they want from you, what gifts you received from them that you're underutilizing, the ancestor that most wants to work with you, and what you can expect if you work with the ancestor consistently. You can also ask one extra question.
You can add on more questions for $2.22 per question.

You can add on more questions for $2.22 per question.

sabay kayong nag almusal ni jisung kaninang umaga dahil nauna kang nagising kaya nakapag luto ka ng makakain niyong dalawa. at habang kumakain ay tinanong ka ni jisung kung anong kulay ang sa tingin mong bagay sa kaniya dahil balak niyang magpakulay ulit ng buhok. you answered color red would suit him, pero kahit anong kulay naman ay babagay sa kaniya โ kahit nga itim lang ay napaka gwapo na niya.
matapos maligo kanina ay nag paalam siya sayo na may pupuntahan saglit, ngunit hanggang ngayon ay wala pa rin siya.
speaking of jisung, your phone rang and it's jisung calling you.
โhello, baby. nasaan ka na?โ you answered.
โhi, baby! pauwi na ko, i have a surprise!โ masayang sabi nito sa kabilang linya.
โhello, y/n!โ rinig mo namang bati sayo ni chenle.
โi'm with chenle pala, baby, nakalimutan ko sabihin.โ natawang paalala naman ni jisung.
โhello, chenle! ingat kayo pauwi!โ
โsige na, baby, malapit na rin kami, i'll see you later po! i love you.โ paalam ni jisung bago patayin ang tawag.
nang malamang may kasamang kaibigan si jisung pauwi ay agad kang nagpadeliver ng pagkain dahil hindi na aabot kung mag luluto ka pa. inihanda mo na rin sa mesa ang mga pagkain nang dumating ito.
the door bell rang at sigurado kang sila jisung na iyon. lumabas ka agad para buksan ang gate. jisung hugged and kissed you as soon as you open the gate. you greeted chenle as well at saka sila pinapasok.
you didn't notice his hair at first since he's still wearing his beanie that renjun gave him. napansin mo lang ang kulay ng buhok niya nang hubarin niya iyon.
โpark jisung?!โ you exclaimed while looking at him with wide eyes.
he look SO FUCKING GOOD with red hair.
jisung blushed at your reaction, โsurprise! how was it? sabi mo kasi bagay sa akin ang red.โ
โyou're so pretty! it really looks good on you, i swear to god!โ you cupped his cheeks at saka mo paulit ulit na hinalikan ang labi niya.
chenle cleared his throat who's in the dinning table already, hungry. jisung blushed even more nang maalalang kasama nga pala niya ang kaibigan. halos mag mukha nang kamatis ito sa pula ng mukha.
inalis mo naman agad ang kamay mo sa mukha ni jisung at saka sumunod na kay chenle sa lamesa para kumain.
nag paalam na rin si chenle na uuwi na matapos niyong kumain at mag kwentuhan saglit dahil iniwan lang daw niya si daegal kay kun.
โingat pauwi!โ paalala mo.
โthank you!โ kaway nito at saka pinaandar na ang dalang kotse.
pag balik mo naman sa loob ng bahay niyo ay tapos na maligo si jisung. naliligo kasi talaga ito bago matulog.
nakasuot lang si jisung ng puting towel sa pambaba habang tumutulo pa ang buhok.
โbaka matunaw ako.โ jisung joked nang makitang titig na titig ka sa kaniya.
you scoffed, โang yabang, buti na lang pogi ka.โ
jisung laughs at you at saka ka hinatak nang marahan palapit sa kaniya. naupo ito sa kama at saka ka inupo sa lap niya. he's stared at your lips nang ilang minuto at saka iyon sinunggaban na parang gutom na gutom sa halik mo.
paano ba naman ay kanina pa siya nagpipigil dahil kasama niyo si chenle kanina.
hindi mo naman napigilang mapaungol nang ipasok niya ang dila sa bibig mo.
after exploring each other's mouth for good ten minutes, jisung took off his shirt that you're wearing at saka mabilis na inunhook ang bra mo. he caress your breast before licking it. sucking it.
his moans and groans while sucking your breast is making your cunt even wetter.
you started grinding your hips on his, โmhmm. jisung, please..โ
โplease what, baby?โ jisung mumbles, habang ang bibig ay nasa dede mo pa rin at sinisipsip ito.
he chuckled at your whines, โuse your words, baby. come on, what does my pretty baby want?โ
โwanna sit on your pretty face, please..โ nahihiya mong sagot habang patuloy pa rin sa pag grind mo sa lap niya.
jisung smirked and caress your face before taking off your shorts, โlet's take this off then.โ
hinubad ni jisung ang mga natitira mong suot at saka nahiga sa kama niyong dalawa para makaupo ka sa mukha niya.
you gasp when jisung started licking and sucking your wet folds. lalong nabasa ang puke mo nang duraan iyon ni jisung. you grasp his cherry red hair in your hands when he rub your clit while licking your folds.
โbaby โ oh my, ji โ mhmm. so good..โ you moaned.
โcum all over my face, baby.โ jisung mumbled while sucking your clit, sending you vibration.
halos sabunutan mo na si jisung sa sobrang sarap. he look so good under you with his red hair โ gusto mo mang titigan siya ay hindi mo magawa dahil hindi mo mapigilang mapapikit sa sarap ng pagdila at pagsipsip niya sa puke mo.
he inserted two fingers into your hole at saka pinaglaruan ng dila niya ang clit mo.
โtaste so good, baby. mhmm.โ he moaned while nipping at your clit.
nang maramdamang lalabasan ka na ay mabilis niyang nilabas pasok sayo ang mga daliri niya.
โmhmm. malapit na โ aahh, jisung..โ ungol mo at saka nilabasan.
you squirted.
agad mong inabot ang tissue sa night stand niyo para punasan ang mukha ni jisung.
โbakit mo iniiwasan tingin ko?โ natatawang tanong ni jisung sayo, nang aasar.
โokay lang yan, baby, wag ka mahiya. ako lang to oh.โ dagdag pa nito at saka niyakap ang bewang mo.
โyou're still hard..โ you stated nang maramdaman ang tite ni jisung sa ilalim ng tuwalyang suot niya.
โako na bahala, baby, magpahinga ka na.โ aniya saka akmang tatayo nang pigilan mo ito.
โi'll help you.โ
โhindi ka pa ba pagod? okay lang naman sakin, baby. i can take care of this.โ tanong niya sayo at saka inayos ang buhok mong nakatabing sa mukha mo.
you shook your head, โi want to help. please?โ
nang hindi sumagot agad si jisung ay tumayo ka mula sa pagkakaupo sa lap niya at saka tinanggal ang tuwalyang nakapalupot sa bewang niya.
he's really hard. and big.
you grabbed it using your two hands while looking at him with doe eyes and he can't help it. he's going crazy.
โfuck.โ he cursed when you started pumping his cock.
โisubo mo, baby.โ he commanded.
hindi ka na nag dalawang isip at agad na sinunod ang utos nito. you wrapped your lips around his cock.
โmhmm. you're doing great, baby. just like that.. o-ohh..โ jisung moaned, bitting his lips.
you tried licking the top of his cock and jisung rolled his eyes at the feeling of your tongue.
โmhmm.โ ungol mo habang subo nang buo ang tite ni jisung, deep your throat.
โa-aahh.. you're so g-good, fuck..โ
โy/n โ oohh.. god..โ
โth-that's it, i'm gonna.. gonna cum, baby..โ
jisung came in your mouth.
โspit it, wag mong โโ hindi na natapos ni jisung ang sasabihin nang ipakita mong wala nang laman ang bibig mo.
you giggled at his reaction.
โyou did great, by the way.โ he praised, patting your head.
you smiled at him, โang pogi mo, nakakainis ka.โ
The mediator design pattern allows us to communicate through a "middle man". It understands how to get the message to the destination and what the right destination is.
The mediator sits at the center but... We still need things that can send through the mediator, and things that can receive from the mediator.
So how can we set up our system so that we have handlers for messages from the mediator?
Have a look at this simple chat demo app to find out!

หโยท ออออโณโฅ CONTENT WARNINGS: 18+!!! fem!reader. references to breasts/pussy. you send nudes to seri and he surprises you in return.
"hey katsuya," you'd purred in his ear one night, "can i send you pics while you're gone?" he'd looked so puzzled, with a sparse dusting of pink on his cheekbones and a heightened openness to his eyes. "dirty pics."
the answer had been yes and so that's why you're here now, scrolling through the carousel of pictures on your phone, looking for the perfect one to send to serizawa on his first night away. you decide on the most mild of the bunch: a selfie with a bright smile and a flippant peace sign, but your arms are squished against your breasts, making your bustling cleavage the undeniable focus of the image. you tap on your phone the accompanying message, "thinking of you katsu. miss you!" and hit send.
( ๐จ YOU'VE GOT MAIL! )
the read receipt that flashes on your screen comes right after and you see the ( . . . ) come and go before ultimately receiving, "I miss you too! Thank you for the picture. I love it." you kick your feet in the air, squealing like you're falling in love all over again, before typing out, "can i send you more?" and just like the first reply, serizawa's message to you is swift. "Yes."
you flip through the series of photos you'd already taken but the fire lit in your tummy calls you take a new one. your thighs rubbing together in anticipation for seri's reaction, you ready yourself for a new ensemble of photos.
you end up sending serizawa a treasure trove, each picture more risquรฉ than the last. you start with your tank top a little more dipped than before, showing more of your bra than before and of course it's one of seri's favorites. he just loves how the color and shape compliment your body so well, but he loves in you everything really. that photo stirs awake his cock, the thick and weighty flesh pressing against the fabric of his pajama pants. it's a good thing he's alone because if there's one thing about serizawa, it's that he can't hide his hard ons. he's much too large for that.
the next photo has your shirt off and breasts out. your face is barely in the photo, clearly the priority being for seri to ogle your naked form. but there's enough of your face for him to see the cheeky grin plastered over your lips. your fingers are tantalizingly wrapped around the band of your panties, promising to show him more if he just stays patient. this one has him palming his erection, his large hand easily covering and rubbing out his strained cockhead through his pants.
your third message is an ass pic, taken with the help of your phone's timer. you're bent over your dresser, the fat of your bottom in the center of the photo. your underwear? gone. so on top of seeing your ass, which you know already drives seri crazy, he is also treated to your plump folds, pussy glistening with your essence and it makes seri's head fuzzy seeing you like this, even with him so far away you're so good to him.
every photo got a response from seri within the minute but that last one is left on read. you're not sure what to make of it, but you figure seri just got wrapped up in something. you've never been one to doubt seri.
then you get a notification, "katsu <3 sent you a video" and you swear you've never clicked on an alert so fast.
what you see next has your mouth watering and your cunt dripping. the video starts a little shaky but stabilizes soon enough, giving you the most perfect view of serizawa's fattened cock. seri is holding the phone close to his face, you know this because you are treated to a beautiful assortment of his pants and grunts as he wraps a hand around his veiny girth. he gives himself a few strokes, treating you to the delicious sight of his foreskin, firm and stocky, running up and over the wide mushroom tip of his penis. you're licking your lips, looking at how his veins pulse with every twitch of his monster cock. "hnngh, i remember -- remember you told me you liked this." there's a breathy chuckle from him that wavers as his fingers tighten around his dick. "i-- i hope this is okay."
oh, it's MORE than okay. the video goes on for a little over a minute but you rewatch it over and over, absolutely mesmerized by the way seri's big hand commands his cock, stroking it and letting it go so it goes pap! against his cushy thigh. he does it with confidence, knowing the view and sound is to your liking.
"katsuya! you're so good to me!" you cheer in your message to him. "wish i could take care of that for you <3"
and god, the sex you have when he comes back is INSANE. he shows you JUST how much he missed you, shows you JUST how much he loved the pictures you sent him

Welcome to my second post talking about interesting things that I have learned from my course WRI227. Today I will be discussing the lecture materials that I found particularly fascinating from Class 6 - Online Voice & Rhetoric. Enjoy your reading๐!
1. Rhetoric is the Art of Persuasion๐ฃ๏ธ
Rhetoric is an important subset of communication studies. This term basically refers to the art of speaking or writing effectively. Rhetoric can be deployed in services of commercialism like selling things and selling ideas. Some examples of rhetoric are when a lawyer convinces the jury of whether the defendant is guilty or not, advertisers create slogans, politicians inspire people to act, and so on. If you want to be a content creator, using rhetoric can help convince the viewers to not only look at your online content but also to engage with it. This leads to more followers and attention from advertisers. Additionally, all of these factors lead to monetizing your content ๐ด. In short, rhetoric is a useful tool that helps you get your point across.
2. Emojis Can Initiate Engagement๐ค
Emojis are essential to communicate emotion and convey messages (Ge & Gretzel, 2018). Additionally, emojis can lighten up statements as well. Emojis may look silly, but they are actually quite effective when it comes to getting the audienceโs attention. You guys have probably noticed that content creators often use A LOT of emojis in their content to initiate engagement and draw attention to a particular product (Ge & Gretzel, 2018). Also fun fact, the gesture emoji is statistically proven to be the most used. I found this statistic to be very surprising because I always thought that the heart emojiโค๏ธ or the laughing emoji๐ would be the ones that the audience uses the most. In general, we can also say that some emojis have far more flexibility in use compared to language depending on the situation.
3. Luck is NOT Always On Your Sideโ๏ธ
Unfortunately, being an online content creator or an influencer sometimes is not as fun and easy as it may sound๐ฐ. There are tons of challenges that you have to face and this job does not always work out for everyone. Sometimes you have to rely on luck on your road to success and not just your hard work alone (Trusolino, 2023). I am sure you guys have moments of meeting people in your life where the conversation would start with โYou are so lucky. How did you become this successful? I have better qualifications but I am not as successful as youโ. You would probably receive a very vague answer from them. A study has proven that the most talented individuals are rarely the most successful individuals in life. Most of the time, people who are mediocre but lucky have a greater chance of becoming much more successful (Trusolino, 2023). Indeed a frustrating statement to make but it is what it is๐.
4. Do Not Take Business Criticism (1-Star Review) Personally๐
This is one aspect that I have learned when reading the article "Diagramming the Story of a 1-Star Review" by Miriam Ellis. If one takes business criticism personally, both the owner and the consumer won't be able to reach a peaceful resolution. To make both sides feel satisfied, we need responsible communication (Ellis, 2016). The owner's job is to own up to his/her mistakes, accept responsibility, and not to correct the customer or justify himself/herself (Ellis, 2016). Customers, on the other hand, should have respect to another human's being livelihood, no matter how disappointed and angry they are with the business (Ellis, 2016). After all, insulting people will definitely lead you to nowhere.
5. Adding numbers in the Subject Line is an Effective Email Marketing Best Practice๐จ
I was very surprised when I read the article "37 Email Marketing Tips for Messages that Get Opened, Read, and Clicked" by Henneke and realized that adding numbers to an email subject line can have a higher chance of attracting attention from people. Subject lines with numbers may pique one's curiosity and urge them to open the email. It may also demonstrate a straightforward message if you are sending them an offer, and set the right expectations.

Sorry for fucking up your name last letter, I'm just used to spelling it that way, lol. Anyways, I saw what you ended up crossing out. I think being your best friend would make me die of happiness, considering that after poring through some of my old journals, you were basically one of my childhood heroes. No, not Batman, or Superman, neither of them. My hero was a particularly handsome teenager running around the woods with a pair of hatchets. I'm glad to note not much has changed. I drew you and I just sorta having misadventures in the mansion and getting chased around by Masky for eating all the waffles, shit like that. Jesus wept, I'm actually tearing up over this, things were undoubtedly worse but so much simpler back in those days. Lmao I'm a bit emotional, as you can tell. I have no clue if any of this is normal behavior, and even then, I'm just hitting the tip of the iceberg in terms of fanboying. It got..weird. Anyways, the fact that you're willing to give me one of your hoodies is like a blessing. I should stop, I'm probably creeping you out. Sorry, new bestie.
Donโt sweat it! My last nameโs not a big deal to me, I donโt really care how you spell it.
I was sort of hoping youโd see what I crossed out... I was nervous to say it out right, didnโt want to look like a creep, you know? But Iโm glad that youโd want to be best friends! And Iโm really flattered to be somebodyโs hero! Iโve never been someoneโs hero before... want to know my childhood hero? Spiderman! Iโve always loved Spiderman. Hell, I used to have spiderman tics as a kid. Iโd do that littleย โwsshโ motion with my hands, like when Spiderman shoots out a web? I always thought he had a cool superpower. Did you know Spiderman wears a mask because he doesnโt want his enemies to see when heโs afraid? I think about that every time I have to put my mask on for work.ย
Your drawings sound super cool! I would love to see them. I canโt draw for shit, so Iโm happy to let you be the artsy friend, haha. It would be so much fun to hang with you in the mansion, thereโs tons of cool things I want to show you. Do you think we could have like a sleepover? Iโve never had one before, but I think it would be fun. We could watch movies and run down the halls and play games and talk and in the morning we could have waffles. Slender makes pretty good ones. Do you like blueberry? Theyโre my favorite.ย
Donโt worry about being emotional. Sometimes thatโs a good thing. Being in tune with all your emotions and stuff? Just donโt bottle things up and let it explode out everywhere. Iโve learned that the hard way. And you know what? There is no such thing as trulyย โnormal.โ Everyoneโs at least a little bit weird. Yeah, most people arenโt super weird, not like how Iโm weird, but at least everyoneโs got a little bit of weirdness to them. And you know, Iโve met a lot of great people who are super weird, so maybe super weird people are the best kind of people? Theyโre always interesting, at least. So I guess being a weirdo isnโt bad after all, not when you know other weirdos like you. Wanna be weirdos together sometime?ย
