It was almost 2 am and your husband was still wasn’t home. You decided to wait for him on the couch today, reading your book to keep you company.  You even wore his favourite black lingerie but while you put it on, you had a feeling that only the mirror would be seeing it tonight. You would wait a millennia for him, if it meant you could see the way his smile lights up his whole face and the way his dimples make him look even more adorable and pretty, at the same time. You were almost falling into a deep sleep when you heard the sound of a key turning in the door of your house. Chris was finally home.
You feel the ghost of a breathe fan your face before you hear a sigh. He gives your forehead a small peck before removing the book from chest and lifting you up in his arms to take you back to your shared bedroom. You’ve lost count of how many times this has happened but it never fails to make your heart flutter. You always feel warm and safe in his arms.
It’s not long before you hear the shower run. You decide to steal Chan’s black hoodie and change into it quickly, your black lingerie wrapped underneath, like a surprise for him after a long day. You sit up straight and fix your hair, wiping drool off the sides of your lips. You watch him walk in nothing but a towel around his waist, water dripping down his chest while he dries his hair which you know will get all curly and cute in the morning. You would whistle, if you knew how to.
You think about how you could watch him forever. He looks up when he feels your gaze on him. His eyes widening a little and he gives you a small tired smile. “Good morning”, you say giving him the biggest smile you can and get up to embrace him. You give him a tight hug, trying to get as close as possible, no regard for the water dripping down his body that now sticks to your hoodie.
“Hi baby, were you pretending to be asleep? I thought told you not to wait up.”
“I know but I can’t sleep without you.” You say as you pout.
“Gosh, you’re so adorable.” He gives your lips a soft, chaste kiss.
He lifts you up and gently puts you down on the bed, before climbing in himself.
“I want to fall asleep with you inside me.” You say while removing your underwear. Chan complies,pushing one finger in your core, prepping you; falling into a routine of days when both of you are exhausted. You can never get used to the way he stretches you, though it’s a welcome pain.
“I’ll make it up to you in the morning, promise.”
You hum your response into his chest. Something about being so close to your husband makes you feel warm all over causing you to already fall into deep sleep, in the arms of the love of your life.
You wake up, your back somehow facing Chris’ front, his hand wrapped tightly around your torso. You try removing his hand but his grip on you only tightens further.  You check the time on your phone, it’s almost 10am.
“Channie, Chan, Christopher wake up, babe. Wake uppp.” You sigh when he doesn’t budge. “We're not spending your day off sleeping in bed.”
A groan. “Five more minutes.” You put his hand under your hoodie. He doesn’t budge at the feel of the familiar lace, only pulling you closer than you thought was possible, his hand now resting on your chest. Oh, so he was playing hard to get. But you wouldn’t give up so easily. You clench around him, knowing this would elicit a reaction from him.
His eyes jolt open and he lets out a breathy groan. “You don’t play a fair game, Mrs. Bang.” He’s on top of you in seconds. He pulls out of you and you feel the loss of him deep in your core. He helps you out of his hoodie, pinching your stiffened peaks through the lacy fabric. His lips travel from your neck to your stomach, leaving marks in its wake. When he finally reaches your pulsing core, you let out a sigh of relief, his fingers and mouth taking you to the edge. Both of you lay there for a few seconds after your release, Chris coming to lay on your chest. 
Without wasting anymore time, you get on top of him, easing down on his length slowly and bracing yourself against the headboard. Soon you set a steady pace, bouncing on his dick but it doesn’t last long, your movements becoming lazy. Chris takes over, as he always does. It doesn’t take long after that for both of you to reach your highs.
You get up to clean yourself and pee. After you coming back you pounce on Chan, peppering his face with kisses, earning a peal of his adorable giggles. 
“Someone’s happy to see me.” 
“I’m always happy to see you, Chris.” You say with the biggest grin you can muster causing the tips of his ears to redden as they always do at a compliment. “I love you.” He says giving you a kiss.
“I love you more, my Channie.”

‘Black Sails’ Star Luke Arnold Is Creating A Graphic Novel With A Strong Creative Compass
Tumblr media
Though he’s had a long run as a working actor, Australian born Black Sails and INXS: Never Tear Us Apart star Luke Arnold says he’s always been a writer. He says that’s related to his favorite part of acting – figuring out the strategy for the performance more than the performance itself.
For Arnold, getting into the space to create is vital. Drama school was followed by the start of his on-screen career, but while he was still writing, he felt a truth that will resonate with many aspiring creators: “For so long you’re so desperate for a paycheck and for something to happen in your career that for so long as a young actor, it’s hard to really focus on something [else],” he says while recounting the process of trying to find time to write in between auditions and jobs.
Arnold is talking with us as he readies the launch of a Kickstarter campaign around a new, high concept graphic novel that he-co-wrote with Chris “Doc” Wyatt. The story plays with shifting realities, twisting truths, and anti-science ideas. It sound expansive and timely, deploying multiple heavy-hitter artists (including Bill Sienkiewicz, Glenn Fabry, Jason Howard, Vince Locke, Brendan McCarthy, Andrea Mutti, and M.K. Perker) in collaboration with The Lab Press. This follows his three novels with a fourth on the way.
Arnold’s writing work is the result of a careful balance that grants him the time to carve out dedicated space to write, doing it in a way that seems to not just impact the work but also reinvigorate him when a new acting role comes along. That balance has come from having worked steadily and from legit financial planning.
“I do put time aside and I know I’ve got to make the acting money last through that time. And make sure there’s enough, all the rent and bills and everything are covered while the money isn’t pouring in the same way it does when you’re on an acting job that gives you a check every week,” says Arnold.
Working in this fashion gives Arnold the ability to not be pushed into bad creative decisions by necessity, accountable to his audience more than to the business side of things. It’s a luxury, to be sure, but one that he is happy to lean into with focus and humbleness (believe me, Arnold gets how lucky he is to be able to put one career down for a moment to pick up another, mentioning it more than once).
“If you start spending so much that now you have to make all your decisions based on finances, you start making the wrong decisions, you start taking jobs you don’t want to take.” says Arnold.
The desire to chase a kind of purity with the creative process extends beyond planning and striving for dedicated time. It also factors into how he chose to pursue this specific process, turning to Kickstarter.
“It takes so many barriers away, because so much in publishing and getting books out can be about this whole network of agents and publishers to the booksellers, to the bookstores, to the people in the bookstores recommending it to readers. And that can be such a great pipeline of people, but it can also limit what people have access to,” Arnold says. “Kickstarter is a very level playing field and very creator driven. So it’s a perfect place for this whole journey to start.”
While Arnold also lauds Kickstarter’s creative community and other benefits, he acknowledges the advantage his name recognition brings, though we both agree that it may, at times, be overstated.
“I think that the’ve got to be careful how I say this. I’m sure when I get opportunities like this, some part of it is that I have have a profile from a TV show. But I think it often gets overestimated, this idea of how much of an audience will follow you between different fields and different mediums,” he says, before I co-sign the thought by reminding that there is a big difference between following someone and giving them a credit card number.
At the end of the day, while some may click because of Arnold’s run on Black Sails (the pirate epic is about to hit Netflix in full), the idea for Essentials has to win them over. It’s why we’re talking with him, to be honest. And so, to end off and share info on the Kickstarter, let’s have him make that sales pitch in his own words.
“Essentials follows Harris Pax, who was the one scientist who foresaw this inter-dimensional collision happening where our dimension collided with another. Now objective reality has become untethered. And people’s subjective realities are becoming real, the way they see the world, their fears, beliefs, ideas are manifesting around them. This was a kind-of COVID baby. This was an idea that we were forming in 2020. A lot of it is dealing with that idea of what the hell do you do when everyone is in their own little world. And we can no longer agree on some basic facts, science, the world we’re in, and how hard is it to do what Harris tries to do, which is to go into these subjective realities and try and convince the person inside that they need to come back to the real world.”
You can check out the Kickstarter for Essentials on April 17.

Broke Horror Fan has an exclusive look at six pages from Essentials, an epic sci-fi graphic novel co-written by Black Sails star Luke Arnold and Napoleon Dynamite producer Chris "Doc" Wyatt.
It features artwork from DaNi (Sandman: The Dreaming), Glenn Fabry (Preacher), Jason Howard (Transformers), Vince Locke (A History of Violence), Brendan McCarthy (Spider-Man: Fever), Andrea Mutti (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), and M.K. Perker (Air).
Essentials is the debut offering from The Lab Press. Exclusive editions - including covers by Fabry, Howard, and Bill Sienkiewicz (New Mutants) - are available through Kickstarter, which has far exceeded its goal.
Read on for the zombie-infested preview, insights from Arnold and Wyatt, and more about Essentials.
In Essentials, mathematician Harris Pax predicted the end of the world but failed to prevent it. Now he’s living alone in a bunker and his niece’s favorite toys have started talking to him. The good news? He’s not the world’s sole survivor. The bad news? The other survivors are trapped in alternate realities — imprisoned in imagined worlds full of zombies, robots, mythical creatures, and chaos. And now Harris Pax and an unlikely ally must travel the country on a quest to restore reality, save humanity, and defeat his new interdimensional nemesis: Snuggles.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Luke Arnold statement:
Harris Pax was the only scientist who anticipated the end of the world. Every other surviving human is now trapped in a subjective reality, disconnected from each other and the real world. Harris must now travel into the realities – each of them a fantastically distinct mini-universe – to convince the dreamer to leave the dream behind. We quickly learn that this is easier said than done, as most of us – no matter how depressing, frightening, or dangerous our thoughts may be – will cling to a world that we know and understand at all costs. On top of that, there is an evil entity hidden in each reality, attempting to force a much darker outcome
Doc Wyatt statement:
Essentials can seem complicated, jumping from reality to reality, but at the end of the day it’s a very easily communicated idea– the last human survivors of a massive cosmic disaster are now all off in their own bubbles of reality, and it’s one man’s mission to bring them out of their bubbles before they die in there.

Hi ! Me again. I haven't made a poll in like 3 hours, so...
This poll is about Gaiman's adaptations in comics/graphic novels. There's another one like that, also with brilliant artists like Colleen Doran, P. Craig Russell, Charles Vess and Michael Zulli.
My tag for these polls is "gaiman's comics". You'll also find a poll about picture books in here. I swear we all need more picture books in our life. Next poll in this tag will include mainly original Gaiman's graphic novels/comics' works (including Sandman and many collabs with McKean, yeah !)
If you're into polls, I have a few 'gaiman's female characters', 'gaiman's queer characters' and a 'gaiman's angel characters' polls out there. I also have polls about works by Shakespeare, Agatha Christie, Edgar Allan Poe, French lit and comics in my 'polls' tag / organized in my pinned post.

The Movement of Conclusion
In This Scene
Chris: And that’s why they called it a movement of conclusion—because it concludes the fight!
Simba: I see…
Chris and André, the Swashbucklers of the Magic Kingdom, are the fight choreographers for all the Disney films, but they also do a lot of stage choreography for the Pridelands Shakespeare Company, which was founded by the brothers King Mufasa and Prince Taka/“Scar,” and is currently headed by Mufasa’s son, King Simba. Simba continuously tries to put a different spin on each production, and that means a continuous need for new fight scenes to fit his latest vision. Chris and André don’t mind at all—the PSC is their biggest contract and their working relationship has become a close friendship, a friendship that survived the Reign of Terror and weathered Scar’s turbulent Regency, and which may be Prince Kopa’s only hope of surviving the present storyline.
Here, Chris demonstrates the Spanish Movement of Conclusion, or grappling with the left hand. As Simba has just learned, this can be used to disarm an opponent, which means Simba needs to learn it in order to play Hamlet in The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, Act V, Scene 2, where the stage directions specify: “Laertes wounds Hamlet. Then in scuffling, they change rapiers, and Hamlet wounds Laertes.”
Behind the Scenes
Chris is canonically skilled in all styles of rapier combat, but I wanted him to have a specific style as a base. Originally, I wanted it to be Fabris, but then I decided on the Roman-Neapolitan style of the Marcelli family, to suit his cup-hilt rapier and turn-of-the-18th century aesthetic. But I’ve finally decided that I ought to write what I know, so now it’s Word of God that Chris’s base style of fencing is the Spanish school of La Verdadera Destreza, which is my main fencing style.
The Movement of Conclusion is the third and closest-range of the three canonical defenses in Destreza, and since it can be used as a disarm it becomes a plausible means of performing the sword-switch in Hamlet. As this article demonstrates ( https://www.cassidycash.com/hamlet-laertes-rapier/ ), Shakespeare and his audience knew swordsmanship, and they knew that disarms were common in the fencing system of their day. Therefore, when the stage directions say, “…they change rapiers…” Hamlet is meant to be portrayed as intentionally seizing the poisoned sword so he can kill Laertes with it, not flying into a mad rage and accidentally grabbing the poisoned blade. He doesn’t know it’s poisoned, but the swords should be blunt (they are referred to as “foils”) and the fact that he’s just been wounded by a sharp blade means Hamlet’s suddenly figured everything out—Claudius is trying to assassinate him with Laertes’ cooperation. After waffling the whole play, Hamlet finally acts and takes the revenge he was charged to take at the beginning of the play, even if his indecision has cost him his own life (and several others). Laertes now has no choice but to seize Hamlet’s blunt rapier to defend himself, and thus, “…they change rapiers…”
Also, Simba was hard to draw. I had to study a screenshot of The Lion King’s final fight for a while to figure out what Simba would look like standing on his hind legs for fencing.
