gentle cuddles, hormy twinks, face-down-ass-up banging like screen doors in a hurricane -- you know, the usual.
as indicated on the sketchdump itself, i was really on the fence about whether or not i should include the two sketches on the bottom, because they're both flawed in ways that bother me. but at the same time i like those doodles enough that i didn't want them to just sit in a pr...

Lethal venom, small puncture wounds like from the fangs of a snake, and bodies contorted from pain are all calling cards of the assassin that Imperial agents have nicknamed the Viper. You might think that someone who comes and goes completely unseen and unheard would cover their tracks and kill without leaving even a bloodstain behind -- but the Viper chooses not to. The crime scenes t...

monsters with deft fingers. big monsters who can hold up their lovers like it's nothing. monsters who take their time grinding and rubbing and teasing. monsters who cuddle. monsters.
that's all. :>

It's Kubi again, here with the Ariel spotlight! I had fun revisiting the backstory of one of our older pairings. As a disclaimer, please keep in mind that he is absolutely an evil character whose actions are not to be emulated or condoned. That said, hope you enjoy the nefarious story of the Demonic Prince of Lust!

a handful of nsfw tarikuto + naoki moments, ranging from merely an alluring peek of skin to a tail raised in invitation.
(side note, but i'm REALLY enjoying the way i sketch right now? as in, both the process and the look of it??? it feels so different from my sketching style even just a year ago -- i hope you all like it too!)

to be honest, their lunch breaks end up like this more often than tarikuto would like to admit. he takes his duties very seriously and is always punctual ... except for when he returns to the shrine a little late, with sex hair and a flush on his face.
these two continue to live completely rent free in my brain. in fact i'm paying half their rent for them and helpfully t...

when me and kubi started worldbuilding our desert empire setting (about 6 years ago) we decided that there's orcs. we always wanted our orcs to be different from textbook portrayals a la lord of the rings, though, so we characterised them more like warrior poets with a taste for art and culture.
but it's only recently that we decided to draw inspira...
