A colleague posted or mayhap he himself AI generated an AI image of the Pope Francis meeting Jesus in Heaven where Jesus looks like the final boss and the Pope like god of war
This colleague is very religious so he didn’t do it ironically
It’s been a long day to say the least. Somehow an eight hour shift has felt like a twelve hour shift. At this point you would give anything to finally be off. You stood behind the counter quickly making coffee orders as they were being sent through. Saturday morning shifts are always the hardest. It had been an insane morning and you felt like you haven’t stopped moving since the sun started to rise. Your bottom lip was captured between your teeth as you tried to focus. You were nearing the end of your shift. Honestly, you just needed a nap desperately at this point. You couldn’t wait to finally be free from this coffee shop.
You sat two drinks down on the counter and glanced down at your watch to see that you had two minutes until you were off. You quickly made an ice coffee and sat it on the counter. You turned to your boss who was working the register and said a quick goodbye. Rushing to the back you threw off your apron and clocked out.
Rushing out of the coffee shop you walked the short distance down to your apartment you shared with your boyfriend. You couldn’t wait to see him. Hopefully he’s home and didn’t decide to go to the gym with any of his friends.
Opening the front door, you found your boyfriend and his best friend Changbin sitting in the living room. They were laughing and joking around about something. You can’t say you’re shocked that Changbin is over. Most weekends your boyfriend spends Saturdays hanging out with his best friend.
“How did work go?” Changbin asked. Changbin isn’t just your boyfriend's best friend, he’s also yours. You met back in college and he’s the one who actually introduced you to a very shy Chan. Nobody wanted you and Chan together more then Changbin. He went out of his way to push you both together.
“I made a bunch of coffee,” you smiled as you walked over to Chan who had stood up and started walking over towards you. He wasted no time wrapping his arms around your soft body and pulled you into his chest. His strong hands roam your back as you cling to him.
You rested your head against his strong chest and murmured, “I need a nap desperately.”
He pulled away and pressed his lips to the top of your head, “why don’t you go take a nap?”
“Okay.” You smiled pulling away from him.
You headed off to your room. You feel like you could fall asleep the moment your head hits the pillow. Pulling off your sweater you toss it in the hamper near the closet. Quickly you push your jeans down your thighs. You walked towards the bed in nothing but your undies and a baggy shirt. This is your preferred form of pajamas. Crawling under the covers you curled up into a ball, and closed your eyes and it wasn’t long before you were sound asleep.
The feeling of the bed dipping down next to you caused you to stir. Looking up you find your boyfriend dressed only in a pair of boxers. He’s crawling into bed. You can’t wait to curl up close to him.
“Where did Changbin go?” You rasped still half asleep. Part of you isn’t even sure if this is real or if you’re dreaming.
“He headed home, and I was dying to cuddle with you.” Chan has always been a fan of cuddling. It’s rare you fall asleep without him holding you close.
You moved over and rested your head on his strong chest and pressed your body closely against him. Her soft thigh was moved so rested across his groining. You nuzzled your face into his chest. You weren’t sure if you could get physically closer to him. You would lay on top of him if you weren’t worried about squishing him. His hand rested on your round butt holding you close to him. He always jokes around that he can't sleep unless his hand is in your butt.
“You’re so comfortable,” you wiggled your body a little, getting as close as possible.
He let out a little groan as your soft thigh brushed against his groining. He loves when you get to cuddle like this but it kills him sometimes. You somehow managed to always get him all worked up without even trying. From the very beginning Chan had been addicted to your body, just like you were to his.
“If you nap with me for a half hour we can have lazy sex after,” you rasped against his chest. Lazy sex with Chan is always nice. You love when he takes you from behind while spooning you. You could get wet just thinking about it.
He leaned his head down and pressed his lips to the top of your head, “I like that idea.”
“I thought you would.” You sigh. “All you have to do is pull my thong to the side and slide right into me.”
“How am I supposed to sleep when you’re making me hard, talking about me pulling your cute little thong to the side?” He groans.
“I’m so sleepy-“ you moan rubbing your body against him.
“Is my sleepy princess horny?” His hand grips your butt pulling you closer to him.
“I’m already wet.”
His hand moves down your butt and dips between your legs. Pushing your thong to the side he groans at the feeling of how wet you are.
“Fuck-“
“I told you.”
“Baby can I fuck you?” He’s running his fingers through your folds.
“I’m too tired to do anything.” You might be sleepy but you’re aware you’re playing a game with him now. You’re tired but you definitely aren’t too tired to have sex with him. You just want to be a bit of a pillow princess right now. You want him to do all the work. You’re luckily your boyfriend is a saint and has no problem letting you be a pillow princess.
“Baby you don’t have to do anything. Let me do all the work.”
“Okay-“ You sigh.
Rolling off him you roll until you’re laying on your side with your back to him. You feel the bed move behind you letting you know he’s removing his boxers. The sound of the nightstand drawer opening signals he’s grabbing lube. Pulling your panties to the side you push your leg forward on the bed giving him more access to you. The bottle clicks open and moments later you feel him massage the cool liquid between your folds.
Slowly he runs his length through your folds. He takes his time pushing into you. His hand grips your hip. He keeps a slow and deep pace. This is your favorite kind of sex. You feel incredibly close and intimate when you’re together like this. Closing your eyes you moan. He feels so deep inside you. He’s always been a fan of any position he can take you from behind.
“Fuck-“ you whine. “You’re so deep.”
“You’re taking me so well baby.”
You know at this rate with how deep he is you won’t last long. You have no problem with cumming so quickly. With his stamina he’ll probably make you cum a second time before he finishes inside you.
“Channie-“ you fall apart almost instantly. Your walls contract around him.
He continues his slow and deep pace. “So good-“ He groans.
“Oh god-“ You’re moaning like a whore in heat.
“Can you cum again?”
“Yes-“ Your first orgasm isn’t even finished and he’s trying to get a second out of you.
His pace picks up slightly. His hand reaches between your legs and starts playing with your clit. You’re on the verge of overstimulation. Gasping he pulls another orgasm out of you. Crying his name out as you feel him paint your walls with his salty release. He moans your name in your ear as he rides out his own high.
His hips slowly stop moving and he shows no sign of pulling out. You both love cock warming after slowly sleepy sex.
“Let’s get some sleep babygirl.” He smiled before pressing his lips to your shoulder.
“I like that idea,” you whispered, closing your eyes.
If you have asked to be tagged I request that you please reblog. If you could leave comments and or tags that would be greatly appreciated.
one direction will always be so so so bittersweet to me like they were such a foundation of my teenage years while at the same time those boys were spending most of their days trapped in hotel rooms or waking up at 2 am to record an album and non stop touring and working so much more than anyone let alone a bunch of teenage boys should work and its always been hard to reconcile those two realities especially on a day like today because god when they were good together, they were so good together.
and i just don't think anything like them will ever happen again. 5 boys from basically working class backgrounds thrust into a level of fame the height of which hadn't been seen for decades, all of them becoming the breadwinners of their families before the age of 18. the immense pressure but also the amount of fun they were. the tragedy and joy of it all intertwined. really impossible to put into words
nothing personal but this kind of comment rlly exemplifies to me a disconnect between canon and popular fanon jmart characterization because they almost literally had this conversation in canon - except, their lines are swapped!
jon, for all his scared grouchiness, is a secret romantic, while martin, for all his forced optimism, is at his core a pragmatist
It’s also worth mentioning that this is the guy who posted this:
His name is Jim Sterling and he is a rather… colorful games journalist who actually uses his platform to report on stuff like horrible working conditions, abuse and even stuff like sexual assault in the games industry.
He also raised concerns about the addictive nature of stuff like loot boxes and micro transactions long before anyone else did.
They recently came out as non-binary “gender trash” (his words, not mine) and uses he/they/any pronouns according to his Twitter. Give their videos a look see if you are interested in hearing about workers rights in the creative industry.
Jim used to be a relatively big name reviewer back in the Angry Trillby Reviewer Days until they suddenly ‘quit’ their job with the very prominent games journalism company they worked for and were summarily blacklisted by the entire AAA industry.
Why? Because a massive scandal broke at the major game publisher Ubisoft revealing a culture of systematic sexual abuse, including high-ranking officials within the company that would regularly drug and rape female employees, which management and HR seemed fully aware of and would protect and move around the perpetrators Catholic-church-style. Reviewers were told not to talk about it and, when it became impossible to contain, to not talk about it where it’s “irrelevant” – that is, never mention or hint at any such stuff when actually reviewing and promoting Ubisoft games, because it’s a separate thing, see, no need to distract from the game (Ubisoft’s goal here was to be able to continue to advertise their games to players who hadn’t heard about it, and wait out the scandal until those who had just assumed everything was dealt with and forgot, which worked).
Jim refused. They knew this would tank their career, they knew they were throwing away an incredibly promising future. They did it anyway.
James Stephanie Sterling in one of a very small number of game reviewers out there with an actual fucking spine and a moral code made from titanium. They’re still effectively blacklisted from the industry, because since then they’ve refused to reform and play Good PR Robot like reviewers are supposed to do (because the AAA games industry thinks ‘reviewer’ and ‘critic’ are synonyms for ‘PR person in a gig economy’), shining light on repeated abuses and scandals in the industry, both internal scandals like this (discrimination, worker abuse, fraud, the normalisation of crunch culture and not paying workers) and ways at which the AAA industry scams players (abuses of early access, loot boxes and ‘pay to win’ mechanics that used to be the realm of free-to-play games now dominating paid titles while the prices of those titles also go up, abusive subscription models and ‘always online’ services, fun little tricks that companies love to pull with “remastered” games, and lately NFTs). Jim’s usually a good six months to a full year ahead of the curve on spying out this bullshit, able to see and warn about it before it becomes trendy enough for other reviewers to touch, and the result has been being continually silenced by game companies and passively buried by algorithms due to illegitimate DCMA takedowns, incorrect copyright strikes spurious lawsuits, being frozen out of gaming news, and whatever other nasty tricks people can pull. They came out as nonbinary very shortly before hitting a million subscribers (despite the forces agaisnt them) and then suddenly lost a lot of subscribers over a short period of time. Which was surely a complete coincidence. Yep. Just a coincidence. Have they backed down on literally anything? No. Because they decided to do this properly despite the cost and they are NOT fucking around.
They also call out particularly bad bullshit of indie developers (we’re talking the con artists and bigots in indie development in particular), not just AAA, which once hilariously resulted in a tiny no-name developer attempting to sue them for TEN MILLION DOLLARS. (Well, I found it hilarious after the fact. It was incredibly frustrating and somewhat stressful for Jim at the time, if one of the more ridiculous silencing tactics.) You can see them report on that here:
Pronoun update! According to their instagram, Steph uses She/They pronouns and they have genuinely never seemed happier the whole time I’ve been a fan, which started waaaay back in the Escapist days.
I’m so proud of her and how far she’s come- and they’ve never once slacked on their principals the whole time. They employ queer folks, advocate for us, she shout outs amazing smaller games with healthy business practises- and she fucking chokeslams people for fun in the ring.
My favourite heel, Commander Sterling: I thank God for her <3
honestly shocked it took this long for me to find love for our girl on tumblr, I got into her videos just before the transition started and seeing her joy helped me along my journey as well
Not to mention everyone who does it is so insanely talented at portraying not only the vibes, but being dead on with the motion. I mean the courier in this alone has amazing core strength and rag dolls the EXACT way that bodies do in game. It’s honestly incredible.
