[⚠️ 18+ blog warning: I post/share suggestive/mature content at random. ⚠️] Welcome! I mostly just like a bunch of cool art posts and then do random follow sprees on occasion, when I've hoarded enough amazing artists for it. Imagine a tiny dragon on top of a big pile of art instead of gold, if you will. Also, I write fanfiction, I guess. Current obsessions are Tenna and Caine, as you can see. • Other Accounts: https://jamieorjames.carrd.co/ • he/him • 27 • 🇵🇷 (Profile picture: Banba from Princess Jellyfish.

Weirdly enough, this is a song I'd heard first when husbeau was playing Beat Saber. I'm like, "Hang on a sec, that sounds like Lindsey Stirling." Lo and behold when I heard it again, it was on my Pandora station. It does have a nice beat to it to go with her strings.
Currently Watching: Dark Winds - To be fair, I'm watching a few anime, too, but I feel like Dark Winds, based on Tony Hillerman's Leaphorn & Chee novels is worth sharing. A friend recommended it, and I was like, "Navajo rez mystery series? Zahn McClarnon stars? Implied possible supernatural involvement? Sign me up!"
Currently Reading: Getting ready to start The Red Winter by Cameron Sullivan.
I've been waiting on my library hold since March, darn the slowness of the book vendor in shipping the books. But it finally arrived last week! And surprisingly enough, I am in the mood for this one. That doesn't always happen when I have to wait a long time for a library hold. Here's hoping it will be a good read.
Current Obsession: Kind of torn between Moonlight Peaks (though I haven't started playing yet, just been watching a lot of content about the game) and My Time at Sandrock still (need to get back to playing in earnest since I have two other bachelors I want to romance and marry).
Currently Working On: Again, it's my Sandrock fic that I made such good headway on and then kinda got distracted by other things. I am determined to get it finished this year as there are only a few chapters left.
Last Google (DuckDuckGo is the way to go) Search: Kobo store so I could see if a title on BookBub was listed in their ebook store. Sadly, it is not and is only available at the overlord's site (Amazon).
Favorite Flower: This is a really tough one since I love so many flowers. It's likely a tie between gardenias because they smell so so good and dahlias because they're so so pretty and rich in color.

Currently Reading: Three Bags Full by Leonie Swann (The book that inspired the new movie Sheep Detectives)
Currently Watching: Nero Wolfe 2003 series
Current Obsession: MoonLight Peaks YEAAAAAAH! Also my duskroving birb folk :p
Currently Working On: getting my old Nintendo DS up in running again! I have missed using a handheld game system, and I have been thinking about saving money to invest in a Steam Deck. But in the meantime going through my old video games I played as a kid has been nostalgic. I had Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town. A game I never played much because I was terrible at it, and all the people where disappointed in me. Coming back to it now, with all the StarDew Valley under my belt... I bet the towns folk think I've been body snatched ahahaha
Last Duck Duck Go Search: Medieval word for never
Favorite Flower: Lily of the Valley, pretty little petite bell shaped flowers, also highly poisonous ( ` v° ) and Hyacinth, a long cluster of flowers, bulbs can cause mild irritation.

And if you want to do this but I didn't tag you... Boop! This is me tagging you! =D
Currently Watching: I watch a lot of let's plays and livestreams. Currently I'm watching Jacksepticeye's playthrough of Dead Space, one of my favorite game franchises.
Currently Reading: In terms of physical books, I read a lot of nonfiction since I love to learn, On my nightstand currently is The Sauropod Dinosaurs by Mark Hallet and Mathew J. Wedel. I've been a huge paleo nerd since I was a little kid, and this book does not disappoint! Digitally, I read tons of fanfiction, mostly self-insert stuff because I am cringe but free.
Current Obsession: Oh jeez, I don't think I can pick just one! The Freak Circus has been a big one for me lately (Pierrot is my baby boy). I also recently got into TADC, which I avoided for a while since I thought it was a kid's show! I've also been in the FNAF DCA fandom for about five years, which is crazy long for a hyperfixation for me. There is a clear pattern to the characters I'm attracted to haha
Currently Working On: So so many things! Gift art for friends, drawing some of my characters I've never drawn before, maybe a little fanart, too.
Last Google Search: Reptile jawbone anatomy. I'm doing a bit of speculative evolution design, and needed some references for it.
Favorite Flower: Coneflowers, also called Echinacea. I have a big native plant garden in my backyard, and the coneflowers are always a hit with the bees, butterflies, and goldfinches! It's really cool to watch them get pollinated and then to have the birds eat the seeds in fall, it makes the whole garden feel worthwhile.

Last Song: Lunch by Billie Eilish! Working on a wlw one shot inspired by the lyrics, so it's been on repeat for a bit.
Currently Watching: Skip and Loafer!
Also got back to watching Markiplier again because 3 people so far this year have told me my writing reminds them of Markiplier, and I just... don't exactly get why, lol. Maybe my obsession with him in my teen years still bleeds through my stories??? My brother is mean and won't tell me why he agrees with them. >:(
Currently Reading: For physical books, I just finished reading This Could Be Us by Kennedy Ryan and now I'm reading Can't Get Enough, the last installment of the trilogy. Also Sweat and Soap and Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You for manga. I don't really read digital books, aside from reader-inserts on AO3—been writing 'em since my teen years, too!
Current Obsession: Uh... All are videogame related, I think! Currently completing my second route in Pub Encounter (old men dating sim yum yum), and also been binge-replaying horror-nostalgia games like Mad Father, Ao Oni, Hide and Seek: Story of Dorothy, Ib, The Witch's House, Oxenfree, Fran Bow, and Sally Face.
Currently Working On: Posting a Fem Tenna/Reader one shot and editing the next chapter of my Human Tenna/Reader fic, Just Like Honey. As for a bit of a more embarrassing one... A Tom Nook/Reader short story (New Horizons specifically, since I feel like he'd just treat me right and we could raise Timmy and Tommy together, y'know? Wild World would be the next best choice, if I want him kinda mean but also just as caring and responsible.)
Last Google Search: Laisse tomber les filles song translated to English (trying to see how much my French is improving by listening closely to the lyrics and then seeing if I got the words right).
Favourite Flower: Hibiscus!!! My hammies love munching on 'em! Especially the light pink ones. Love seeing their faces smudged with pollen after they devour the petals like a predator with prey. I also like wearing them on my hair... Drinking hibiscus tea... Wearing hibiscus-based fragrances... You name it! Funnily enough, even my favourite candy, Raffaello, has the flower on the packaging. I've got four hibiscus shrubs at home, and they bloom all year round!

...Anyone else! I'm shyer than I probably seem, so feel free to join in if you wish!
* I'm still keeping my word back from when it was Caine vs Tenna, so here's the message I left on the semi-semi-finals for the contest:
If Tenna wins, I'm making a poll for what the next Tenna one shot I post to AO3 will be.
★ Options include:
1. Spamtenna fluff (human AU, where appearance-wise, Tenna is a beautiful silver fox black man you see randomly while working as a cashier and you can't stop thinking about how handsome he was even after you're done with your shift, and Spamton the middle aged man you see working at Burger King at 11 pm when you just clocked out of work and you don't want to cook; plot-wise, it's them reconnecting after the divorce)
2. Reader-insert fluff (Tenna in an apron, welcoming you home with an anniversary cake in his hands)
3. Found family angst (as in, the Dreemurr family's past, told from Tenna's perspective before he became obsolete)
★ For context, I crushed on Doofenshmirtz (...and Patchy the Pirate and Steve from Blues Clues) since childhood, but I fear Tenna has won me over by a lot more.
★ I'll also do a special one shot for Caine from Digital Circus as well, because I also love him very much, and he deserves recognition for winning against another GOAT like Luigi!
I think he's cool! A tad too on the grumpy side for my tastes to be a personal favourite, but he's still pretty interesting and fun to read and write about. 😊
Currently have 2 out of 10 chapters written out for a Null Tenna/Reader fic, but I don't plan on posting it until late September/early October of this year. When I do, though, it's gonna have a sweet resolution and a happy ending, just like my other Tenna/Reader fics!
I CANT FIND FEM TENNA X READERS ANYWHERE IVE READ THEM ALL😭😭😭😭will you write more fem tenna at all?🥹✌️love ur writing
Same!! My yuri loving brain is itching for more Fem Tenna fics.
I have around five Wifey Tenna/Reader one shots planned for the future (to be posted on AO3), starting this August. Right now though, I'm focusing on completing two of my other Tenna/Reader stories!
And thank you very much!! I'm glad you like my writing. 🥰
In the future! Right now, I'm finishing up some longer Tenna/Reader fics on AO3, but I have at least five Wifey Tenna/Reader one shots planned out, starting this August. 😊
people having sympathy for tenna nearly murdering 3 teenagers (ONE OF WHOM HE HELPED RAISE, BTW) because he was having a manic episode and this agreeing that it isnt the same as somebody of sound mind trying to kill people…. but then deciding spamton holds full responsibility for trying to murder 3 teenagers (one of whom he just met and 2 he never saw before) during a texbook psychotic episode.
“i am compassionate towards ‘scary’ mental illness” you cant handle a homeless man talking to himself
(this isnt saying btw that having an episode excuses spamton of his actions, only that it should be kept in mind when discussing his behavior, as while mental illness cant force you to do things, it can cloud your judgement or influence your decision making. especially a mental illness that literally affects your perception of reality)
I know a lot of people try to defend his actions with "He didn't really want to kill them!! He just didn't want to die! He was desperate!" but like... that's just an explanation, never a justification
I remember made this a few weeks ago:
He was still hurting three teenagers for choosing the wrong answer while forcing them to do things they didn't want to do. All the while dismissing Kris's depression and making Kris relive their own traumas.
He was traping the Fun Gang to force them to say or do what he wants or he will physically hurt them.. this is still abuse! 😭 It doesn't matter if he had no malicious intent. He still did it!!
And the fact that he doesn't want to die makes me think a lot because... no character wants to die?? That's not unique to Tenna! It's a very valid fear, but it's not unique to him. Characters who seem to not care about this are clearly never seen as a positive thing, in fact it's very worrying.
Yes, he's desperate, but you know who was just as desperate as Tenna, but unlike Tenna, he also didn't even have a home anymore, proper food, or anyone to talk to? Spamton G. Spamton.
I think it was common consensus in the fandom that Spamton's tragic past doesn't justify his actions and is still very wrong, so I don't understand how some characters (I hate to make oppression olympics but let's be honest here, they've been through less than half the horrible things Spamton has been through) somehow get a free pass and all their past wrongdoings are fully justified instead of just being forgiven.
Some people were saying that Tenna has PTSD and was in a manic/meltdown episode, but... so is Spamton?? Bro was hallucinating an audience that he was praying for them and also begging them not to take his furniture! Many of these arguments also work for Spamton
And regarding the mental illness, Spamton had no support from anyone. He didn't have support from the Queen (you know, her job as queen is to take care of her people), he didn't have any friends he could trust, everyone saw him becoming a puppet and glitching and no one did anything and some deny that he exists or refuse to even mention him. He's been without any treatment or support for years.
Tenna has at least a few people he can talk to and offer some kind of support. But to be fair, none of them are doctors or psychologists, but having a shoulder to cry on would help a little. Or at least some basic darkners/lightners rights like a house food and an actual bed lol
I just have a feeling that people try to defend all of Tenna's actions (and it just makes worse lmao) because they want him to be this pure wholesome funny little guy because they're afraid of liking flawed characters so they try to defend the inexcusable or just pretend that's not what really happened in canon
And Spamton is helping the Fun Gang throughout the chapter, being their strength. He's taking responsibility for his past actions. And you know, also helping them to save the two worlds. While Tenna just wants to find a new family to be adopted like a dog instead of trying to talk to Kris or something (the person he called family!!!)
Why is it that the character who took the most responsibility for his actions and how he mistreated the Fun Gang is the one who is being the most villainized while all the other darkners who also did many wrong things and mistreated the Fun Gang are just chilling in Castle Town pretending that the end of the world isn't almost coming??
*rubs hands like a fly* I'm sooo looking forward to tackling this subject in writing! Glad to stumble across a post that scratches an itch I've had since playing Chapter 3.
I can't tell you how much your long Tenna x Reader fic has made me giggle so hard and made me have audible "WHATTT"!!!
I so so appreciate your work and dedication to the references, the love and just shown of special interests in this fic by far. ITS SO ASTONISHING!! It's inspired me to say fuck it and do some self indulgence art low-key .. AHHHH
Thank you for giving me something so tension-filled yet so cozy to read!!
Aw, that's very sweet!
Life can be challenging, so I've always aimed to make my fics feel like a breather of sorts by writing soft and silly and sweet and stupid moments — if that makes any sense.
Also, thank you very much! That's so nice of you!! The references, love, and special interests are all super fun to write, especially when combining them to create a fluffy scene that just about makes me want to write the entire rest of the fic in one go, lol. And nice, I'm glad it could inspire you, and I hope you have fun drawing what you're thinking of!
You're welcome!!! 'Tension-filled yet cozy'... I love the way you summarized it. ✨
The sheer polarity of the readers' reactions to Tenna's actions in chapters 11 and 12 of my Tenna/Reader fanfic The Sun Always Shines on TV is just so damn funny and charming to me...
Like, I did not think those two chapters would cause these totally opposite reactions, but at the same time... It makes sense???
So, in chapter 11, Tenna (spoilers) traps the reader in a gacha ball after the first date is over so they don't leave his room in Ralsei's Castle, and then in chapter 12 (more spoilers) the reader **kinda/sorta/maybe** forgives him after what he did, and...
Whaddya know, the readers' opinions divide like the parting of the Red Sea.
It's sending me. Like omg, I can't wait to post the next chapter!!!
...But alas, I must resist, in order to create enough buffer for consistent updates. 😭
Thank y'all for your comments, btw! It's stuff like this that makes my day and urges me to just... want to post the whole story at once, if I could. Take care. ❤️
Genuine question how the fuck am I supposed to ever in my life be normal about Tenna again after Toby Fox himself described him as a "giant, handsome, apron wearing older husband". How am I meant to recover from this and just go on with my life...? How are we as a society supposed to deal with this?
:0! You're the writer of my fave Tenna x reader fic! I left a couple comments on ao3, but lemme just say I've been really enjoying reading The Sun Always Shines on TV! It's so fun I've been having a blast reading ^w^ I even subscribed to get updated when the next chapter gets published! I hope you're having as much fun writing as we are reading, and thank you for sharing your work with us!
Aw, thank you for your comments! That's really sweet to know, and I'm glad you're looking forward to the next update. I've been having an absolute BLAST writing the story, and it's my pleasure to share it with others, too!! It's strange to think it started off as a one-shot, and now we're well into 7 chapters out of 28, haha! Hope you're doing well, and take care. 😊
tenna in ur "the sun always shines on tv" reminds me so much of the song "Somthin' Stupid" by frank & nancy sinatra
Oh. My. Goodness. Consider me speechless.
Thank you so much for reminding me of this song!
And oh honeyyy, I totally see your vision. It's a perfect fit, specifically the lyrics you mentioned in your other message.
I practice every day
To find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come true
But then I think I'll wait
Until the evening gets late
And I'm alone with you
The time is right, your perfume fills my head
The stars get red, and, oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying somethin' stupid like, "I love you"
I'm smiling like an idiot and internally squealing at your message! You've given me a LOT of ideas to work with, lol.

Summary
Bored in bed with a cold, you send a text to your wife, Mrs. Anne Tenna, joking about how you feel lonely and how you could really use her company right about now.
She takes it seriously and ends her show early, bursting through the door of your home to take care of you.
As soon as Tenna's show goes on commercial break, you sit up straight in bed, exit the livestream, and open the messaging app.
It's strange thinking back on how just a year ago, Tenna could only retain her Dark World form strictly to where it belonged, limiting her interactions with you in the Light World. She switched between channels to talk, and you got to know each other through simple questions she could answer through the limitations of whatever shows were broadcasted that day. And when you found a way to visit the Dark World without risking danger, you visited her as often as you could and became fast and close friends.
Now that she's living with you in the Light World, she's made it big as a full-time show host, and people all over the world asked her to create an online video channel to keep watching her.
She loves the attention, and you're incredibly happy for her, but in truth…
It does get a little lonely sometimes — especially times like these, where you're all by yourself at home after calling in sick to work.
“Ugh,” you groan, forehead throbbing. “This sucks.”
Although your temperature isn't going down, you've barely eaten anything since this morning, and you feel nauseous, it's nothing you can't endure or that requires a visit to a doctor.
So, bothering your wife while she's on break seems like a good way to distract yourself and spend the time without thinking too much about whether you'll be able to show up to work tomorrow or not.
When are you gonna be back home?
I feel sick and I miss you. :(
You accompany those messages with a low-quality picture of a teary-eyed grey cat looking at the viewer, smiling when you see Tenna instantly reads what you've sent.
\ | /
8>[^o]
Give me a moment, sweetie.
I'll be there soon!!!
Wait, no.
You don't have to!
Based on how Tenna goes offline without reading those last two messages, it appears you're already too late to clarify you were only playing around.
You exit the message app and log back into her livestream channel, body itching and hands sweating while you wait for it to load.
“Oh, geez,” you mutter, closing your eyes and bracing yourself with a breath. “Don't tell me, she—”
Upbeat jazz music cuts off your wishes, and you look at the phone to see ‘TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES’ on the screen, with people on the livestream texting their worries about what happened.
A ten-minute countdown pops up right below the message, and the chat blows up with assumptions about what will happen when it reaches zero.
“Damn it,” you mutter, locking the phone to set it on your bedside table and drag yourself out of bed. “How did it get to this?”
Guilt makes the nausea you distracted yourself from return twice as strongly, and the headache turns worse, stinging and aching as if you've collided with a cement wall.
You bring a hand to your forehead, musing over how you can apologize, until…
You hear a muffled door slam from afar (presumably, the entrance of your home).
“Cutiepie!”
The familiar voice of the same woman you're worried about sounds nearby, and the bedroom doorknob starts twisting and turning.
“Worry no more. I’m here!”
Followed by that shout is Tenna bursting through the door, her once pristine show host clothes made a mess from presumably running all the way here.
Her tie is undone, her suit jacket's buttons are unlatched until the last one, and her shirt is wrinkled and tucked out halfway from her pencil skirt. She has her heeled boots held out in one hand, and a big paper bag filled with all sorts of things in the other. The part of her usual attire that remains intact is her bright red lipstick, and that’s because you went out of your way one day to help her test all the lipsticks she owned, to see which was best for kissing and which for working.
One fateful Saturday morning, she tested each and every shade all over your face — forehead, both cheeks, nose, chin, and of course, lips — after you smartly suggested she could use you as her test subject, instead of resorting to paper.
It lasted an hour or maybe two (you weren't exactly… counting), and you had to vigorously scrub your face clean when she was finished, yet you didn't mind at all.
After all, it was a very serious matter, and you wanted to be there to support her.
“Sorry it took a while, dear,” she says, after she's cooled down and caught her breath. “There weren't any buses at this hour, so I had to improvise!”
‘Get Well Soon’ contents poke out from the bag she tries to stabilize under an arm, revealing her crew had gone out of their way to make stuff for you during the time she was at work.
And, knowing her, she had talked her crew's ears off this morning about her situation, likely sharing details all about how her spouse stayed sick at home and how she's worried about them.
Which means that she no doubt had everything planned out and prepped ahead of time, and that you shouldn't feel so guilty about it, but…
A-choo!
You cover your face with an elbow and let out a fit of sneezes.
“What's wrong?!”
It's unavoidable not to feel guilty about this, with how concerned she sounds and the huge sprint she gave to arrive home.
“I knew I shouldn't have gone to work today!”
She sets the bag on your shared dresser, then the boots in the closet and strides off to you, her tail swishing slowly like she's an animal analyzing her prey.
“What about your viewers?” you ask, when seeing how her watchful screen zeroes in on how you're standing next to the bedside with the phone nearby, looking like a criminal caught in the act. “E— Even if your crew's still there, you left the show all of a sudden!”
She sets her hands on her hips and strikes a proud pose.
“I gave my employees a raise just this week, as per your suggestion to make them like me more.” She grins. “They love you for it, and I've never seen them so eager to cover for me like today!”
All it takes is another sneeze to have her grin fade.
She seizes your face in her palms, her gaze effervescently worried despite the lack of eyes.
Her larger, taller frame corners you against the bedside table, her usually warm temperature felt cool against your feverish state. Her screen is a bit staticky, something you've learned through your time married to her that this is her body's way of showing she's tearing up. The swishing of her tail is slower, like she's happy she's with you, but unsure how to approach you.
“When I saw that text, I immediately had to drop everything to be here.”
Her forehead presses to yours, and her antennas spike when checking your temperature.
“You're overheating,” she states, her voice a booming, powerful duo of concern and anger. “If you were an electronic, I'm— I'm sure you would be dead by now!”
What a way to assure you're going to be fine.
Considering it's coming from your wife, and that prior to this she took your message about feeling sick too seriously, you see past that blunt choice of words as her being genuinely concerned for your well-being.
And it's to the point where her tail stops moving and that staticky filter over her face turns stronger.
“Should I ask Toriel how to take care of a human with a fever?” Tenna asks, squishing your face. “Or… Should I drive you to the hospital?” She huffs. “I should have known you'd still be like this! I should have called off today's show, and—”
“Tenna,” you hush, when she pulls her hands away from your face to clutch her head, her screen turning off as she panics. “I’m okay. I took some medicine, and all I need is—”
“SOUP!”
Her face returns to replace the black screen, and she points a finger at you.
“Toriel made soup for Kris whenever they got sick!” She gasps. “And Asgore…”
Her face gets all stern: an agape mouth changed into a scowl, and a pair of furrowed lines on her forehead mimicking eyebrows.
“Wait here, my darling. I'll be right back!”
• • • • •
A hot bowl of noodle soup, some warm herbal tea, and a lot of your wife worrying about your health later, you're on the couch with Tenna sitting crisscross on a blue beanbag in front of you, her screen tuned to her channel.
After her crew ended the show on a ‘to be continued’ a couple of hours ago, there's now a rerun of an 80s sitcom, the substitute to her rushing out in swift response to your messages.
“Y’know, honey…” You lean in, reach a hand out, and graze your knuckles against her screen, smiling at her. “You didn't have to do all this.”
The expression on her face as she switches her screen to it is… certainly something.
If you could describe it in any precise way with limited words, she seems incredibly appalled by the suggestion.
“You're my spouse,” she says, almost like a question. “Why would I marry you if I didn't want to be with you?” She sounds confused. “Didn't our vows say ‘through sickness and in health’?”
You chuckle and wipe a thumb across her mouth to clean off the smudged lipstick all over the screen, a humble courtesy of yours truly when smothering her in kisses after she served you the soup and tea on a tray, as if it were a twist on the usual breakfast in bed.
…Cold cure on the couch, maybe?
“I mean, yeah, but…” You close your eyes and sigh as you press your forehead to hers, assuring her your temperature has gone down quite a lot. “You look so happy when you're working, I didn't want to worry you.”
Your nose is stuffy, and your voice is slightly hoarse, making it appear as if you're crying.
And…
Perhaps, you are.
“I know we promised that and all, but…” She scoots closer to the couch to wrap her arms around your waist, lulling the shakiness of your body and the frantic beat of your heart. “It feels selfish to ask you to stay home to take care of me, when you've got a future so big and bright without me ahead of you.”
Tenna frowns and rests her face against your chest, letting out an angry breath.
“Being married to you and working for my future aren't mutually exclusive!”
The absence of her face against your body is felt straight away, and you look at her to see she's sending a disapproving glare your way.
“When Kris and Susie came to you, asking if you wanted a TV… I watched you do many things at once.” You reach for her hands and set them on your lap, holding both and waiting for her to continue. “You worked multiple jobs to find us a bigger home, but you still made space in your day to spend time with friends, family, and… me.” When you squeeze her hands, she pulls one back and squeezes one of yours, carrying it to her screen and pressing a soft, lasting kiss to your knuckles. “I'd like to think I can do the same thing.”
• • • • •
You don't know how long you've been watching the reruns, but by the time an umpteenth commercial break hits, you're in dire need of stretching out.
“Tenna,” you call, making her switch her screen back to her face. “What happened today made me wonder…”
She smiles and nods, waiting for you to carry on.
“Since you were so quick to reply to my messages about feeling sick…” You look away, turning bashful suddenly. “If I, uh, showed you a picture asking you for something… Would you take it seriously, too?”
“What kind of picture?” she asks, standing up from the bean bag to sit next to you on the couch.
She's still vaguely new to certain things, so you haven't exactly explained to her what a more modern meme is, but…
You retrieve your phone from the coffee table, sit back down, and check the gallery, clicking on the image you want to show her.
“Something like this.”
It's a picture of another cat looking at the viewer, now orange and doe-eyed, and with the caption reading: ‘Boobs?’
“Ah.”
Tenna's face goes to signal error, letting out a prolonged beep noise, until she changes back and shows you a shy smile and a furtive screen.
“W— Well…” She covers her face in her hands, hiding her blush and a wider smile. “If you wanted me to, then I suppose so.”
You grab her wrists and tug at them, making her remove her hands from her face.
“Do you want to?”
Her screen changes to full red.
And when she recovers, a flower blooms from her nose.
“Yes.”
You grin and offer your arms out at her.
“Allow me, then,” you suggest, winking.
It's a good thing you've started lifting ever since you tied the knot.
Because, if you can't carry your big and tall CRT wife bridal style into the bedroom, then did you really love her, to begin with?
