Calling all therians 🗣!

Regardless of skill level, rb this with a self portrait doodled by YOU! Here's mine:

[dazed-and-confused23]

"That's my Mom."

Summary: You and your son move from sleepy little town in deep South Tennessee to what you think is a sleepy little town in California. You find out quick that Charming is anything but a sleepy little town when SAMCRO fixates on you and your son.

Pairings! Fucking Everyone. This is incredibly self indulgent like all of my things. Our young mom gets cracked by everyone

Tags! All of them. 18+. Minors gtfo. Smut and violence. Canon typical things but we're keeping it fun. Maybe. We'll see.

Part 1 - Kozik Part 2- Juice

The blonde meets you when he's picking up a couple of packs of cigarettes for himself and the rest of the guys, when a lanky kid who looked no older than fifteen or sixteen awkwardly hovered near. Kozik could feel him staring, but he didn't really think much about it. He was a big dude with tattoos and a leather vest patched with the Grim Reaper. Staring didn't bother Kozik.

What he didn't expect was for the kid to shuffle up to him and ask in a voice that cracked every other syllable if Kozik was a real biker, and if he was, could he see his bike?

"What?"

Kozik turned to give the kid his attention. The boy was built and tall for his age, with dark hair and green eyes, and a jawline that would stand out and be considered handsome once he stopped squeaking every time he spoke.

"Yer bike," The kid drawled, and this time, Kozik caught on to that thick southern accent, "Can ah see it?"

Kozik blinked.

And then blinked again, because there was no way Jolly Green Giant was talking to him.

"You wanna see my bike?" He echoed the words, still taken aback from the interaction. Maybe it was from being a Nomad for so long that Koz wasn't up to speed with human interaction besides fighting and fucking, but he was pretty sure people didn't just ask things like that.

"Yeah?" The kid said again, accent so thick that Kozik nearly couldn't understand that single word. Kozik watches the boy flush and then rub the back of his neck, green eyes cutting away, "Ah-uh, never mind, sir. Spoke 'fore ma brain caught up."

The blonde can't help but laugh a little. Sir? This kid was something else, and obviously not from around here, going by that drawl. Kozik liked him already.

"Jus' lemme pay for my shit kid, and I'll show you, yeah?" Kozik said and snickered at the way the boy's face kind of lit up like the Fourth of July, "Ya got a name? That way I'm not jus' calling ya kid in my head?"

"Arthur, " The boy- Arthur - supplies and offers his hand once Kozik gets his things paid for and can hook the plastic bag around one wrist. Kozik accepts the shake, and his brow cocks up at the grip.

Christ. The kid wasn't even tryin'.

"Alright, Jolly Green," Kozik said, and his lips twitched into a smirk when the boy laughed and ducked his head, looking a bit embarrassed. Kozik quietly told himself not to go too far with the jokes after seeing that reaction. Kozik was a dick, but he wasn't a bully. "C'mon."

The kid is surprisingly knowledgeable about bikes. He asks a couple of questions that Kozik doesn't mind asking, and the blonde even starts the beast for him, grinning at the look of delight that spreads across his boyish face. Koz is tempted to offer him a ride when he spots a tiny slip of a woman stalking across the parking lot and straight toward the two of them.

She was mature, with full hips and a rack that Kozik would be more than happy to bury his face in. She also walked with a prominent limp, and when she got closer, he could see the start of a scar on the right side of her face, curving up to end near the corner of her lips. It was obviously from a knife and had scarred heavily despite the obvious care she had taken to prevent it from doing so.

When she stops, her head is just above Arthur's shoulder, and it becomes quickly obvious to the blonde that these two are related. They shared the same eye shape and nose, as well as the same coloring and thick accent.

"Arthur-" She begins, and the kid flushes, sending a look at Kozik, and the blonde frowns.

"Ah know, I know-" The kid cuts her off and then apologizes, his cheeks growing even darker when what has to be his sister crosses her arms over her chest, "Ya told me ta stay in the car, but I jus' wanted ta get you a drink, but then Ah got distracted-"

"It's my fault," Kozik says and steps up, flashing her a charming smirk and faltering when he gets a narrowed-eyed look in return. He licks his lips and flounders for a second. Women usually swooned for that look.

"I saw your brother looking at my kutte and offered to show him my bike."

Kozik is privy to watching both of them stall and then start laughing at his words. His cheeks grow warm, and he shifts his weight. Had he said something wrong?

"Arthur isn't my brother," the woman says, and Kozik ticks a brow, curious, before his face drops into something like disbelief when you elaborate further.

"He's my son, and I would appreciate it if strange men didn't offer to show him things."

"Ma," Arthur grunts out and crosses his arms, looking away from his mom and Kozik, "I'm sixteen. I think Ah know what I'm doing."

"So did Ah when I was your age," she pointed out, gesturing between the two of them. "Now ya've got a thirty-two-year-old mom."

"Young or not," Kozik chimes in and nods at you, flashing a more genuine look this time around, "You should always listen to your mom, Jolly Green. I bet she's pretty smart."

Arthur nods along soulfully, as if Kozik had just made a comment that aligned with the Constitution. Because ta him? His Ma was everything ever since he was a baby. It'd been him and his Ma.

You make a face at Jolly Green, but say nothing about the nickname. Instead, you offer your hand as your son had, and Kozik wraps his fingers around yours, meeting your eyes. He notices you turn your face so that your hair falls in front of the scar, but he doesn't pay it any mind.

Kozik had seen worse during his time patched.

"Well…thank you," You say, and your lips twitch into a smile as you introduce yourself before you drop your hand and tuck them both into your back pockets, "For entertaining him, but we oughta go. We still have a lot to unpack from the move."

Kozik nods, though a bit reluctant to see you and your son go so quickly. He had been enjoying Arthur's company, and you didn't seem so bad yourself. Koz would have to keep an eye out for the two newcomers. It wasn't often Charming got fresh meat.

"Anytime, babe," He drawled, dropping the pet name casually. He watched your face twitch, but you didn't bite his head off, so Kozik counted that as a win. "Actually. Maybe the two of you could come by the shop, Jolly Green can see the bikes, and I could get you a drink? Tell you about our lovely little town?"

Kozik expects you to take up the offer. He wants you to, if just to get Jax to see this kid for himself. Kozik thinks that Arthur would fit right into SAMCRO. The kid just needed a little fine-tuning. That, and who wouldn't want a pretty thing like you by their side? Even if it was just for a couple of drinks and nothing untoward happened.

"Thanks fer the offer, but-"

"Could we, Ma?" Arthur cuts in and rounds on you, green eyes wide with excitement at the thought of a whole pack of bikers and their rides. He'd always thought they were cool, and he didn't want to miss this opportunity. He knows his mom is protective; she had every right to be after everything that had happened with them, but Charming was supposed to be a fresh start.

Kozik watches the two of you have a silent conversation, a contest of wills, if you would, before he sees your shoulders slump and the grin on the kid's face widen. Your lips twitch into a reluctant smile, and then you are giving the blonde your attention, expression more open this time around.

"I guess we could make some time in the next couple of o' days," You drawl fondly, and cut an amused look at Kozik, "But Ah want your room completely unpacked first."

"E'ry box," Arthur swears and gives you a Cub Scout salute, "Ah promise."

Arthur smiles at Kozik and shakes his hand again before he beats a hasty retreat, obviously ready to go back to their new house and start unpacking.

You laugh and shake your head, eyes crinkled at the edges, and Kozik can't help but think it's one of the most attractive things he's ever seen. He wasn't around many mothers. SAMCRO didn't attract people like you, but Kozik was definitely seeing the appeal and had a quiet thought of wondering just how soft you might feel under his scarred and tattooed hands.

Your speaking takes him out of thoughts that were swiftly turning less innocent the longer you stood there with him.

"Anyway, it was nice meeting you, but we've got some things to do, so..."

"Yeah, yeah," Kozik says and shoots you another smile, shifting his weight and taking a half step closer, "Wouldn't want to keep you and your kid."

You smile at him then, and Kozik feels something in his chest seize up and stall. Oh fuck.

"I'll see ya around then, Kozik."

The blonde stalls when you say his name in that thick southern drawl, and nearly stumbles over his words as you turn away from him, following after your son, who was waiting for you by the car. Arthur waves, and Kozik waves back without thinking, still stuck on why the hell you were making him feel like the Red Bull he'd had earlier actually gave him wings.

"B-Be safe!"

Hot take: but I think alterhumans and non-humans should really get into anti capitalistic and communistic mindsets,

I believe that everyone should start becoming self-sufficient and not relying on capitalism for gear and affirming items,

Throughout the years I have realized how much people rely on buying things in order to feel affirming to their type / animal side, it makes me upset considering I'm someone who makes my own gear and species affirming items,

I see way too many people buy tails that are unethical, I see people buy plastic items that come from manufacturing factories that pollute the air and the water, I see things that scream future landfill within this community and it makes me upset,

Even if you're not good at making gear you should at least learn, you shouldn't rely on capitalism and corrupted practices to get gear that is supposed to be closer to your animal identity,

This self-sufficient mindset also goes to growing your own food and learning to protect yourself when things get dangerous, the world is becoming darker and we need to learn to get stronger, we need to learn to be a community, and we need to learn to rely on ourselves and our community when the government and justice system can't save us,

Also read a book, eat that knowledge like it's a forbidden ancient secrets and you're a powerful wizard learning those forbidden ancient secrets.

New stickers on my shop!!!!!!!!

Where-Does-The-Heart-Lie

a few bunches a few singles and a few sticker sheets! its been a while since I've last added things to my shop, i hope you all enjoy them :))

I've changed the way i produce the stickers by the way. I've noticed the old way is nice at first but eventually it makes the stickers warp and i didn't like that so it doesn't have the outer layer anymore.

I've been experimenting with a new waterproof sticker page too but the paper is pretty expensive so i dont know if i wanna put something so needlessly pricy on my page. But lmk what yall want, would waterproof be something you want?

I also want to make more DDBA stickers, i think i want to put up some polls to find out which set of 3 you guys would want next on my shop.

Whoa, our second annual Cosmere meet-up this May 1st was such a blast! It was even bigger than last year with so many more people joining in, and the energy was just incredible—thanks so much to everyone who came out!

The venue was packed with things to see, from academic-style standees of Vin and Elend to a massive meme wall and interactive displays where people could rank their favorite books and characters. We also had a display of all the Metallic Arts tables, life-sized weapon replicas like Adolin's Shardblade, Vin's sword and Kaladin's spear, and a photo area with Knights Radiant banners where everyone could take pictures while swearing their oaths.

The community spirit was amazing, with tons of freebies, fan-made gifts, and even custom cookies being shared around, plus two special themed drinks we mixed for the event, one for Mistborn and the other for Stormlight. We also played the newly released Chinese version of the Mistborn DBG and held two panels discussing the literary inspirations behind the Cosmere and the latest news on film/TV adaptations.

This has become an annual tradition in Shanghai every May Day, so if you’re ever in the city, please come join us! You can check out the report from our first year [here].
