No fr because my husband has to remind me every month I'm not actually the worst person to ever live, and life isn't utterly hopeless, it's just a week before the red floods come.

Art of my knight OC

A knight in armor, leather hat and a layered dress. Her outfit is shades of maroon pink and red with a veil in bright red being pulled over her face. An arrow has gone by her face and in her chest piece leaving pink sparks on impact. She holds her sword low to her side.

My daily contribution to degeneracy. ✨

Brian and Fran belong to @mystic-snail.bsky.social

If you're actually visually impaired reading this I cannot actually fully describe what's happening, BUT to the best of my ability - There are three people, in an intimate position. One (Brian) is a blond man halfway to transforming into a Byakhee, here functionally meanings he's got spiked growing out of his head, a weird dragon snout full of sharp teeth, his arms are starting to transform to wings, and he's got goofy clawed monster feet. He's straddling a thigh of, and leaning into person two (Mal) who has extremely long wavy black hair that in places is transforming into tentacles, stroking Brian's dick, and wrapping around Fran. Mal's torso is splitting open into a mottled black maw of jagged mis-matched teeth, and eyes. His dick's pierced. Along with pulling in Brian with a gentle hand at the back of his head, he's also pulling person 3 (Fran) closer with an arm over her shoulder, wrapped around her back. Fran is half transformed into a Cat of Saturn, in this case basically a tiger with stripes made from sparkly purple space and stars, and limbs periodically missing pieces, floating remaining segments cutting off harshly into cross sections of the limb (also sparkly purple). She's leaning into Mal, a clawed hand on his chest. All three look pretty happy about what's going on.

I do think it's funny that bsky amended my already tagged picture with a less serious tag too. Bsky's playing around too much.

A comic about CNC kink I've been thinking about for a few years, and I finally decided to sit down and make it.

Consensual Non-Consent In Real Life

A 3 panel comic

Panel 1: Kink Negotiation

Blushing Person: I was thinking maybe we could try out some CNC play...

Person #2: Yeah, we can totally try that out, sweetie! We should plan out what we're willing to do!

Panel 2: "The Scene"

Person #2: The sex pollen.... it's... taking over. I... I can't...Hnngg....

Blushing Person: Noo! Please, you have to snap out of it!

Panel 3: Aftercare
Blushing Person: Thanks so much, that was fun. Let's do it again sometime.

[end of comic]

"The Scene" is the fantasy within a CNC framework.

Some fictional works tell a story depicting two (or more) characters following the process of doing CNC kink, just as they would in real life: Consent discussion, Kink negotiation, “The Scene", and Aftercare.

Some fictional works focus on “The Scene only. A framing device is not required, as the fantasy is contained fully within the story. This lets the reader engage in the kink the same way as if they were engaging in “The Scene" portion of the CNC play.

CNC play, and both sorts of fiction are normal and healthy!

I can draw anything. I can make characters as abstract or grounded as I please. I can put them in peril or paradise at the flick of a wrist and the wisp of a whim. I can tear them to shreds and they'll be fine because I decide they're fine. Because it's all fake. You are trying to chain daydreams

my thing about kinks is that they're supposed to be weird and off-putting or silly or nonsensical.

erasing the things that makes them enjoyable out of moral panic is just loser puritanical shit and I definitely see this thinking parroted by people in left leaning spaces along with conservatives
