“Blessed with eternal love those who see, in between the lights of a thousand lanterns in the sky, the white ray of the ghost lovers rise”

Byakuya turns you around, his hands on your back. Still panting, you can even feel the warmth of his breath on your lips. His frown is relaxed, his eyes are in heaven… he is tired, you can see it. And you haven’t ever seen him that way.

“Are you ok, Taicho?” you ask, shyly, moving away the dishevelled hairs off his face.

“Taicho… heh” he scoffs; caressing your face with the soft surface of his palms. “Don’t call me Taicho here, is not necessary… call me Byakuya”.

You smile, so slowly and sweetly. Resting your cheek on his hand, closing your eyes in total peace. It feels as if your heart would be weightless, where there are no problems nor responsibilities. No hollows, no Quincy, no Espada nor any type of enemy.

“Come on, let’s take a shower. I wanna show you something tonight”

Soapy water running through your bodies, his hands touching you like feathers. It’s so delicate, so delicious. Lust seems to be endless, for him, for you.

Byakuya grabs your hand and plants a kiss on your wrist while you pass your nails through his wet onyx hair. The noble pulls you closer to his body, your breasts pressed against his pale, hairless chest. Your forearms rest on his shoulders, with hands hanging loosely in between his shoulder blades.

“Thank you for this, Tai- Byakuya” you whisper, with water drops pooling in your lashes.

“It’s me who should thank you, (Name)” he whispers, pulling his hair back… so effortlessly looking like the god of beauty and perfection himself.

A kiss, so very deep. Your back now pressed against the marble tiles of such luxurious shower, your legs around his waist and his hands holding you up by the back of your thighs.

You, nor him, understand where does the need, the desire, come from… it seems like you are never satisfied, as if you needed him inside and him to be buried deep into you all the time. The more your skins get closer, the more you need the other. Never ending lust, eternal concupiscence… where does it come from?

What motivates two souls to join? What makes them be so hungry, so thirsty for listening to the beautiful symphony of moaning and whining and grunting?

Is it… perhaps…

“Nghh… Byakuya~” “Mine… (Name) just be mine… only mine”

Another, and another time, and until the hot water runs out. And when your bellies grunt, and maybe pushing yourself to the limits more… that’s when you stop.

It’s ok, nobody will see you two walking through the streets of old Kyoto. Yet, he offers you beautiful traditional clothes. “You would look beautiful in pink” he comments, showing you a piece of the finest yukata, your eyes have ever seen.

“Pink like the petals you cast, beautiful as your Bankai ~” you dare to sound like a poet. You can’t contain the joy inside of you, it’s nothing but pure love what moves you now.

“Sharp like you, deadly like your lips, shimmery as your eyes” he follows you. Maybe he enjoys poetry a lot more than you think, or it’s just that his heart is finally melting down.

You giggle, grabbing the yukata from his noble hands, on tippy toes kissing his lips with a butterfly kiss.

Byakuya looks at you for brief seconds, as if he were lost in a sky of a thousand million stars. And you do too, knowing that he was the brightest of them all…

Byakuya excuses himself for a second and gets out of the room. Not five minutes passed, that he is back again. He offers you his hand and both walk outside the manor. You look at him surprised. Finally, holding hands? Is it allowed in here?

“Come on, we need to get there in time” he tells you, once his fingers wrap around yours.

“Where, Byakuya?” you ask, not really caring about the destiny. You can only enjoy the way his hand feels on yours.

“You will see once we get there” the captain explains as he guides you to a little red tori near the house, still on the beach. Tori are known to be the doors of Gods, and also a way of getting places for Shinigami.

Soon, and as you walk through the holly red arc, the warm lights of traditional lanterns welcome you into the main historical street of Kyoto.

“Oh-“ you gasp, it’s breathtaking. A crimson glimmer bathes your cheeks and the bridge of your nose. Drums playing, the bustle of happy couples and the sizzling sound of Takoyaki combine in one unique melody of a summer festival.  The delicious, sweet scent of wata-ame makes your belly grunt.

“This is… beautiful! So beautiful!” you chime, making little jumps in your place.

“I’m glad you like it, (Name)” Byakuya says, resting his hand right on top of the small of your back. And then slowly moving you to face him.

You beam and giggle. Happiness overflows your insides, and it pours all over your countenance.

Your lover, who also holds a very soft smile, takes his time to enjoy the way your skin shines with the orangey tones of the lanterns. And then, he proceeds to kiss you, once again.

Right in the middle of that busy street, where couples and kids walk past by, nobody can see the pure exchange of love of those two souls. Yet, every time a young girl and a very nervous boy passes by, there is something that pulls them to hold hands for the very first time… And a son hugs his mom, and maybe even an old couple smile again at each other…

Love is invisible, like them two. Love is unstoppable, like them two. Love is love, for living people and Shinigami too.  

When your lips finally separate, even if it’s just for a second, Byakuya points at a hill with an astonishing castle on the peak. “Let’s go, you need to see something” he comments, and you start following him.

You walk right beside him, for once the gettas you are wearing aren’t uncomfortable; they go perfectly with the occasion. And the way your yukatas flow with the wind makes you both look like beautiful butterflies.

Through the climbing path, lanterns with 愛 and 死 illuminate the sides of it. You wonder why, some of them have “love” engraved, while others have “death” on them. So, you ask Byakuya.

“This is the Love and Death festival, (Name). It is meant to celebrate love being endless. Life might be limited, but love isn’t… it was based on an old legend I can’t quite remember” he explains, while you are about to reach the end of the trail.

You smile, very pleased with the explanation and honestly a little lost into the way the reddish lights of the castle make his deep blue eyes shine.

You two walk up to the rail of the hill and take a quick look down. Underneath you, lies ahead the busy streets full of life and love, people dancing and eating, some drinking and laughing. Up in there it is lonely, and yet, so closer to the sky, so beautiful and magical to your eyes.

“Now, for the best part of the festival…” he adds, lifting your chin with delicacy so that you watch up to the sky.

A million lanterns imitate stars as they float up in the air. Some try to reach the skies; some others seem to be levitating right in between the realm of the living world and Seireitei.

On each one of them, the names of those who people miss and those who people love. Because, as Byakuya said, life has an ending, but love doesn’t.

And it’s true… because just as them, you love him too. Endlessly, even after death and you are sure for eternity too.

His hands pass right from the back, through your waist and lock over your belly. Byakuya rests his chin on your head, and he can’t articulate no words. Honestly, you can’t either as the beauty of the dancing lanterns elevate in all glory to the firmament.

Perhaps, not even in your dreams, you have imagined you would be living such romantic situation with Kuchiki Byakuya… but, those who say he has no heart, haven’t taken the time to really know such a kind soul.

“I couldn’t buy a lantern on time, but, would you like to cast something with me?” he shyly whispers, pulling you out from the dreamy scenery of those warm dots of light.

You bite your lower lip and your eyelids shut for some seconds. You need to stop some tears from sprouting… you aren’t sad, you are incredibly happy.

“Yes, Byakuya…” you murmur, turning around to face him.

Eyes that meet, and speechless desires from the deepness of your hearts. Fingers up to the sky, using a white ray to illuminate the sky tinted in pure love. This time, it isn’t to hurt, it is just to seal a promise that hasn’t been written yet…

“Hadō no yon, Byakurai” “Hadō no yon, Byakurai”

As white, as pure, and bright. Like the lights inside your hearts. So powerful, as the love of those who were born to love each other. As magical, as the part of the legend Byakuya didn’t tell you about the festival…

“Blessed with eternal love those who see, in between the lights of a thousand lanterns in the sky, the white ray of the ghost lovers rise”

For some minutes, perhaps it was just seconds, you couldn’t detach your eyes from the pristine light that opened its way towards the sky. The snow-white light, like a single firework does not only take your breaths away, but also the humans’ enjoying the festival too.

“The light of the ghost lovers!” “It’s been almost 100 years since someone saw it!”

They all chime in glee and amusement, pointing at the sky with their index fingers.

“What are they all talking about, Byakuya-sama?” you ask, confused. “I have… no… no idea” he lies, with a little smirk drawn over his lips. “What about going back home, I have yet another thing I wanna show you” Byakuya takes your hand, pulling you towards him once again.

“I would follow you anywhere you wanna go, Byakuya-sama”

Down the stairs, you take a last glimpse of that joyful festival. You let every little detail to get imbued in your memory… perhaps, believing this was, so far, the best night of your life.

Byakuya seems happier than ever; his soft black hair flows with the wind, majestically, as if the time would pass slow, so slow around him. You aren’t sure if you wanna blink, you really don’t wanna lose a single moment, a single detail of his beauty.

He sometimes looks at you; his severe frown is still intact, but his eyes are different. Inside, you can see a light, the shine of being alive again. A kind smile is given, a sweet smirk, a beam that makes your heart stop, melt.

Byakuya squeezes your hand; you do the same. And by the end of the stairs, the tori and a shrine behind. You haven’t seen it when you arrived, but it was worth enjoying it now.

The end and the start; Yasaka Shrine awaits for you. The uncountable lanterns shine it’s golden light with a crimson tint.

You both walk inside, admiring the beauty of the historical buildings around. It is small, but you are sure that it must be very visited; the many lucky tags, with desires written in black ink, are surely prayers of those who have passed through there.

“Wanna try your luck?” Byakuya asks, showing you a little stall with the world “LUCK” engraved in a wooden sign.

You nod, taking the little rolled paper he lends to you. You watch him pay for the two of you, with coins of the living world. You never seen one, not until today.

When both have your papers, you unroll it. Yet, you discover that is empty. You tilt your head to the side…

“You need to put it in water to reveal the luck” Byakuya clarifies, knowing already each and every single of your expressions meanings.

“Oh…” you giggle; you know nothing about this world.

He comes closer, planting a sweet kiss on your forehead, leaving you unable to react. “Let’s go back home now, we can use the sea” he says, taking you by your hand towards the torii that will bring you back to the beach house.

In a second, you open your eyes to a bright light and finally the sound of the waves crushing on the shore fills the ambience. It feels chillier than the afternoon, but it is still enjoyable as it is. The heat of Byakuya’s spiritual pressure by your side is enough to keep you warm.

 “Close your eyes” he says, covering your eyes from behind as you walk towards a light up spot behind the rocks and dunes.

“Oh! Another surprise?” you laugh cutely, taking your hands to his as they rest on your face.

He hums, pressing his chest against your back. You would lie if you said you wouldn’t want to squeak. It doesn’t matter how many times you’ve been together; it always feels like the first time.

You keep walking until he tells you to stop. “Keep your eyes closed, ok?” he commands, taking of his hands from your face and sliding them towards your waist.

You follow the instructions; he knows better. “Mhh, yes captain!” you joke, absolutely anxious to see what’s in front of you.

The scent of sweet chocolate mixes with the sea breeze. The crackling of fire gets to you. A slight orange brilliance that you can see even with eyelids shut.

“Open…” he whispers, close to your ear. And a shiver runs through your spine; his voice is one of Byakuya’s sexiest traits.

When you let the image ahead of you fill your eyes, you feel like crying. Again, you have never been treated to this… nobody ever has made you feel this way…

The decoration is simple but beautiful. There are lots of candles, and sweets scattered all around. Even wakame taishi cookies that you have no idea where they came from. Actually, you don’t know exactly when all of this had been prepared, but knowing Byakuya was the one to organize the engagement and wedding of his sister and lieutenant you aren’t surprised. Who prepared this, nonetheless, you had no idea.

“Byakuya this is… lovely… I have no words” you mumble, mesmerized by the gesture. “It’s not what I wished, but it still pretty. Let’s sit, you need to eat” he assures; perhaps he is not that satisfied, but he likes it either way.

You scoff. “I need to eat?” you ask, pretty sure there were ulterior motives behind those words. Souls don’t need to eat unless they will or have lost a lot of spiritual pressure.

“I can assure you do…” he says, solemnly and serious as he is. However, a playful, lustful smirk garnishes his lips. Byakuya sits while he says so, with his legs crossed and his hand extended to you.

“Oh, so you haven’t forgotten about the note~”  you purr, as he helps you sit on his lap.

You get comfortable on him, moving -a lot more than necessary- your ass side to side. He is not mad, he is glad. So much, that he plants a sweet kiss on your neck as he stretches to grab a freshly cut strawberry from a porcelain plate.

In front of you, the tide grows slowly. The moon reflects its argentum shine on the waves, and the stars flicker around like millions of little silver butterflies in the sky.

Delicate fingers approach your lips, holding the juicy fruit to them. You suck on the tip, allowing your mouth to also touch his fingertips. It makes him grunt, pressing your belly down with his free hand. The moment you two are close, your bodies can´t resist succumbing to pleasure in some kind of way.

“These taste delicious, Byakuya” you whisper, moving slightly to the side to see his face.

“Do they? May I try one?” he asks, also whispering.

You bend forward to pick the juiciest one yet; you already can feel him hard underneath those silky fabrics. A man in the bloom of his masculinity, needs more, more than just a graze.

You slowly turn around, seeing how, with your movements, the yukata has opened exposing his collar bones and even a little down of his chest. It makes you bite your lower lip; the bones of his clavicles are to die for, the way they protrude and cast a soft shadow on his skin makes you short of breath.

“Open” you order.

But he doesn’t. “No. From your lips; I’m sure those are sweet enough for me” he murmurs, always with that sexy smirk and those blue intense eyes.

Inside you, you scream. But you plead the gods to keep it calm. “Like this?” you purr, trapping the citric with your lips and offering it to his.

He slowly nods, taking a bite of the fruit, as Adam and Eve did with the forbidden apple. With the bite, drops of red juice smears on your chins, and his tongue cleans it all.

It’s too much teasing for you; so much you need to sigh loudly. A sign Byakuya takes as the sound of success. A million and one ways to tease you, a million and one ways to make you want him… even if just existing would be enough for it.

He helps you turn around, this time your legs are around his waist while you face him. But he is not ready to make love to you, yet. Byakuya wants you to eat, wants you to replenish energy.

“You like chocolate, (Name)?” he asks, reaching for a dark truffle.

“Mhhhmh” you nod, unable to speak decent words.

“Great. Try these ones” he orders, making you open your mouth to receive the bonbon right into your tongue. “Bite and swallow”

You do as he tells, biting and feeling the explosion of sweet and sour sake overflow your mouth. The drops run through the commissures of your mouth and get to your neck, down to in between your breasts.

You look right into his lips and then to his eyes. You don’t clean the sake off; you know he wants to lick it off from your skin. With your lustful stare you are just letting him know he can do it whenever he pleases.

Byakuya uses his index to softly push your head back and stretch your neck. He licks from the in between your breasts up towards your mandible. It makes you tremble, balancing your hips involuntarily on top of his lap.

Your chest goes up and down, as your breathing gets accelerated. But even if Byakuya enjoys loving you in violent attacks of lust, he is now decided to make you wait, suffer, plead…

Him, alone, stretches again grabbing yet another truffle. Now he bites it, allowing the unholy liquid to dribble into his chest. You can probably say you are panting, like a hungry puppy.

You take a moment to enjoy the drops slowly slither into every commissure of his pecs, and then, you attack.

First, your tongue reaches for his Adam’s apple. It protrudes so perfectly in the middle of his pale neck, always so tempting whenever he speaks. Then towards the valley in between his collarbones; nothing tastes more delicious than his skin.

Your hands, delicately and softly move the fabrics away, discovering how the remaining drops have reached his right nipple. And before your lips get to work, you give your lover a lecherous look that makes him gasp. Your sweet eyes are his weakness, but lewd tinted ones kill him.

You lick the pointy brownish hardness of his nipple. It makes his belly muscles spam, and the tip of his tongue to shily stick out. His cheeks become blushed the more you suck and taste. His eyebrows meet up in heaven. Have you ever seen such a beautiful and impure expression on him? Submitting to pleasure so easily?  

And you want more than soft grunts, you might want him to whine. And you get it, as soon as you nibble on his nipple. A manly, yet so delicious, moan abandons his lips making your whole insides to revolt.

“If you keep doing that you know how this is gonna end” he grunts, passing his fingers through your hair.

“I am not sure, Byakuya… let me see” you playfully answer back, biting again and sucking harder. You make him bow his head; the longer strands of his hair tickling your face, the perfect angle of his straight nose looks beautiful from under.

You change from one nipple to the other, giving him your thumb to suck. He accepts it, devouring it, coating it with his saliva, biting softly on your nail. His eyes closed, the haste breathing, his long lashes casting shadows on his blushed cheeks.

You have now taken control of his body; for once it’s gonna be you who leads the way. And while you keep playing with his chest, your hand goes down. So down, in between you two and his clothes. You reach the warmth, the wetness and the hardness that’s throbbing so desperately.

Surrounding the inflamed tip, you tap on top it, getting your palm sticky from precum. It makes his hand to turn a little more veiny, up to perfection, as he roughly brushes your hair back with his nails.

“My plans… nghh… were different” he grunts, allowing you to give him enough pleasure to break down all his walls.

“Were they, Byakuya-sama?” you purr, as you slowly let your kimono fall and get tangled in your hips. Your skin seems a beautiful dying place for his pour soul, but he can’t even move from how stimulated you got him.

Your belly pressed against his dick, letting your belly button to get filled with oozing transparent delight coming from him. You feel the slight bump of his stomach against your palm, as he moves more and move to get extra stimulation.

How the tables have turned, while he was planning on making you beg, he is now the one to plead for release. But will it last much longer? Will Kuchiki Byakuya let you control him to such extent?

“Ugh, come here” he growls once and for all. “It’s now when I want it” he says, taking his hand to your neck. He squeezes and presses your carotids, to the point of making you a little lightheaded. Byakuya isn’t resisting no more, he wants, and he will fuck you.

“Ride me, RIDE ME” he orders, straightforwardly and perhaps even a little scarily. But so needy, so desperate. And you love it. When the noble loses his temper, is exactly his real him. The sexiest man alive… (well, not that alive)

You obey almost instantly, but still take a sweet little moment to taste the desperation of such work of art for a man. Soon, you lift your hips, helped by his hands, and guide his sex into yours. You haven’t broken your promise; no panties for the rest of the weekend.

You fall on top of him, letting his hardness to almost rip you apart. Stretching your walls, making them spasm, the sound of your wetness is bliss when mixed with his grunts and the sound of the waves.

His hands go up and down your back, as you bounce and bob your hips on top of him. Riding him, you throw your head back because you can feel his hips also bucking up to go deeper and deeper into you.

“Keep going, milk my dick” he commands, out of himself, using words so unproper for a noble like him.

“I will until you fill me up, Byakuya-sama. Come, fill me up” you whine, as you go faster, and his fingers intertwined with yours to help you with the motions.

Not even the cold wind of the sea can cool both of you down. The exchange of spiritual pressure, the lust consuming your souls, the deep connection that couldn’t be broke by nothing in this world.

“You want me to get you pregnant, (Name)? Hm? Cause that’s exactly what it will happen if you keep doing this to me… you- ngh- fuck… you want me to put my seed in you?” he suddenly spits, leaving you speechless, with lips trembling and toes curling.

You are so close to climax, and words like those should be forbidden from his mouth if he wanted you to last much longer.

But he isn’t gonna last… “I will not… last much longer… (Name), tell me… you want my seed in your womb?” he miserably moans, with drops of sweet pooling on his wrinkled nose.

“Yes, Byakuya-sama!… Ugh… I want your cum; I want you seed, fill me up, impregnate me, make me so fucking pregnant”

“Keep it inside, then” he growls, pushing you back and this time topping you without giving a fuck about the food around, nor the sand, nor the absolute risk of wanting you so full of his cum. Once again, once more and perhaps not for the last time during this crazy weekend that still has some hours to be enjoyed…

[outworldletters]

My lovely apprentice.

I hope I have taught you enough for you to know you should not touch suspicious letters that you have found under your pillow with your bare hands.

But if you did, there is no telling what the magic I imbued these words with will do to you. Please, tell me if you feel any strange urges immediately. Like the urge to kiss me.

Just kidding! Actually, you won't be able to unglue your eyes from my words. I mean, literally. Try throwing this letter away from you.

You can’t, right?

it appears that your senses of caution haven’t improved under my tutelage

Anyway, I should have your undivided attention, no? Be a good apprentice and listen to my words.

Did I tell you we are invited to the Owlight Festival Ball? We are tasked with making sure there is no foul play in the main event. Therefore, I have been developing this gluing spell.

The ball takes place after dinner, once the street food stalls have closed and night has fallen. Lanterns of all shapes and sizes are hung on the canopy of trees, their gentle glow illuminating the dance floor covered in wildflowers. The air is filled with the sweet, succulent fragrance of nectar and the smell of underhand shenanigans I will explain later.

To take part in the ball, the guests must don their moths and butterflies inspired finery, and be blindfolded for part of the festivities.

Ah, picture us, fluttering and flying in an endless dance, spinning in a gentle whirlpool of color and light!!

The rules of this dance are simple and require you to match twice with your pair in order to win a prize. During the first dance, all the Moths guests, blindfolded, give their name-cards to the Butterfly guests. During the second dance, it is the opposite - the Butterflies exchange their cards with the Moths guests, while the Butterflies guests only have their hunches to guide them.

Can you imagine the joy we'll feel on finding our match, not once, but twice in a night?

It is all about trusting the connection that you feel in your heart and being perceptive enough to recognize the signs that your partner gives during the dance, even being blindfolded.

Or it is all about using the right tracking spells.

You would not believe the length some couples would go to guarantee they can find their spouses. I heard matching with random strangers does not do wonders for a couple that enters the ball together.

Alas, our job is to guarantee no one cheats! I trust you will study hard all the most used tracing and marking spells on the three worlds. For my part, I will be enchanting all the name-cards to ensure they cannot be traded again once exchanged.

Hence the glue spell you are currently experiencing. Neat, yes?

Would you be mad if we mismatched, my dear apprentice? Jealous? To me, matching with you would be the ultimate prize and the icing on the cake of an already perfect night. But if we do not match, I will still be incredibly proud and thrilled to have spent time with you. The festival and the prizes mean nothing to me compared to your happiness and our connection.

That being said, I am pretty confident in my abilities of finding you blindfolded.

You have a special aura that sets you apart from others, and I can always recognize it. I have become attuned to your essence, your thoughts, and your feelings. Your presence would feel familiar and your body would fit into mine perfectly. There is no darkness, no distance or separation that can ever be enough to separate us completely. For I know you like the back of my hand, my love, and I know what I am capable of when you are truly in my grasp.

You know, this festival has a sweet little story behind it. Do you want to hear it?

Ah, yes. You have no choice but to keep reading. Next time, don’t stain your fingertips with my magic, yes?

Once upon a time, there lived two birds- one a songbird and a night owl.

Although they lived under the same skies, they never saw each other.

The songbird sang every day and the song of her voice filled the owl’s dreams with melodies so pure and so exquisite that the owl fell in love with her. Yet, they never saw each other, for day and night are two worlds that never meet.

The owl, wanting to get to know their love better and not having any other option, offered something he thought a day-dweller would cherish the most - night moths. Every evening, the owl would carefully choose a moth to present to its love, putting it where they would find it.

The songbird, not knowing who offered her the gifts, was nonetheless touched by her admirer's love. She would catch and carefully select the loveliest butterfly she could find to present him.

Thus, these lovebirds continued to offer each other gifts, never knowing their time or fate is soon to come. And so, one day, a sudden change happened. As the songbird collected its butterflies, a shadow passed over.

It was the Owl, who had decided to offer something more special than moths. He was willing to hunt for something beautiful and unique to the day - something like a colorful bird that caught his eyes. However, what the owl did not realize was that his own lover was what he had caught.

I can only imagine the shock and the guilt at that moment. He thought this was what his love wanted, instead all it did was destroy them both.

And so the Devildon found that this cheerful little story was an excellent excuse to make a whole festival out of it. Demons, yes?

But I get why it would tickle their fancy. For them, it is a cautionary tale of the dangers of offering more than what ones receive. About keeping the equivalent exchange. In a way, the owl and the songbird had a clear pact going - butterflies for moths. The owl overstepped.

For a talented sorcerer like yourself, my apprentice, you seem to have almost a distaste for the give and take.

I am used to pacts. That our relationship is not built upon one makes me nervous sometimes. At first, I used to tally everything that you gave me, so I could make sure I would reciprocate you exactly. Nothing more, nothing less.

It is easy to put a price on magic and power. But you, my lovely apprentice, made me discover I had no way of measuring what you gave me.

I’ve only ever focused and obsessed over those complex, arcane patterns that I could break down and recreate into something new. All this time, I’ve lived life looking for something grand and grand and grand… yet to you, all it takes is small things. And it is through you I’ve realized that small things can also add up to something grand.

Your first gift to me was the gift of perception. I have come to cherish and find beauty in even the simplest things, like a cat sleeping on a cushion. The way the wind brushes my face or the stars glitter above me at night. Your kindness, empathy, and affection fill me with such joy every day you wake me up with a kiss good morning. The taste of food prepared by you or the comfort of a hot bath after a long day. I have even found joy in your constant teasing or the way you love to sleep on top of me at night.

I look at your face and I am immediately drawn to the simplest things - your lips curving into a smile or your gentle eyes full of questions. I love the way your eyebrows twitch when you're confused or how you tuck your hair back when it falls in front of your eyes. The invisible freckles on your nose that I could just about kiss. The way you curl your legs up underneath you to make yourself smaller when you are feeling unsure. The way your skin gets glazed by moonlight, your breath on my neck. The way you bloom under my tongue.

It is you, the grand thing I was looking for. You, the sum of all these simple, delightful little parts that makes for the complex being that is you.

My sweet, intelligent apprentice, I am more than happy to give you anything you want. You have helped me see and treasure a hundred small things I would have just glanced over and forgotten otherwise. There is not a single thing you could ask of me that would ever be too much.

You are worth more to me than you could fathom. I feel I don’t give you nearly enough. So tell me, what would you like in return? I know what you would say - you want for nothing.

The owl and the songbird: I don’t see their story as the demons do.

I believe the moths and butterflies were also representative of the Songbird and the Owl themselves. The moths, which belong to the dark, were the Owl. And the butterflies, which belong to the light, were the Songbird. The insects were, to them, representative of their bond and were the closest thing they had to communicate their feelings to one another. So, in the end, their tragic fate may also be seen as a representation of the owl and the songbird becoming unable to distinguish themselves from their offering. So much so that the songbird ended up on the beak of the owl.

This - this was your second gift ever for me - the understanding that love is not a magical transaction or a pact, nor should it be tied to what one party offers to the other.

You are not what you give me - and I am not what I give you.

I don’t want your magic or your power. Instead, I want to hold you in my arms and comfort you on your bad days. I want to be by your side and watch your dreams come true. I want you.

I love everything about you- your wit, your humor, and your sweet innocence. But what I love the most is your curiosity, your intellect, and your desire to learn and grow. I have met no one capable of asking so many questions and never being satisfied with the answers. You fascinate me with your unique take on everything, your ability to see beauty in everything around you, even things most people would deem ugly. You humble me.

Still, there is a gift and there is a pact I would wish for us to trade and firm.

First, a gift for my songbird.

It is something I already gave you long ago, which you continue to hold every single second we are together: my heart.

And as for the pact, I hope that as soon as you finish reading this letter, we can do the simplest exchange: my warmth, your presence.

With love, Solomon.

P.S. If you managed to get your eyes and fingers unglued from my words, that was just the first part of the spell. The real challenge is getting me unstuck from your mind. Good luck!

It was a busy day on Dressrosa, thousands of people walking through the wide cobbled streets of the kingdom. Although the island was known throughout the New World for its high crime rate, a stranger would hardly suspect it on this day.

Given the fact that today was the day of the annual City Festival, celebrating the kingdom and its king in the same breath, probably only a world-weary person would dare to disrupt the festivities in any way incurring the rage of the island's ruler.

In this sense, you could not only be called such a world-weary person, but a crazy one as well. Because as a top agent of the CP0, todays mission couldn´t be closer than that of a suicide mission:  Sneak in among the crowdsof Dressrosa's annual town festival and find more information about the rumors of a hidden facility on the island.

In any other situation, the mission would have actually been one of your easier exercises. Emphasis on, actually. For your target for confirmation of the rumors was none other than the king and protector of Dressrosa himself, Donquixote Doflamingo.

As one of the Seven Warlord of the Seas, the Yaksha enjoyed the protection of the world government despite his status as a wanted pirate. But after said rumors reached the Cipher Pole headquarters, the world government apparently took notice and asked you to take on this top-secret mission, being known for wrapping every informant you knew around your pretty little fingers.

But this case was different. This you knew from the start, not only from the horrifying stories you had heard about your target yourself, but also from the gut feeling that got worse by the second you had arrived on the kingdoms island. Something on there put you off, you just couldn´t pinpoint it instantly.  Still, this didn´t change the fact that you gladly accepted the mission. Because when the world government ordered you to jump, the only thing you asked was how high.

And that's why you ignored the danger you headed into, even ignoring your closest colleagues trying to stop you from your venture. Because if there was one thing that you were determined off, then that you would do everything to bring the mission to a success. Even if it would be the last thing. For Justice.

The streets of Dressrosa were bustling with life as you maneuvered smoothly among the many people. Many festival stalls were set up along the sides of the streets, offering a wide variety of food and entertainment to the inhabitants of the kingdom. Festive lanterns and ornaments decorated the space between house walls and loud music gave the streets the last bit of festivity they needed to displace the dark, criminal sides of Dressrosa through the pageantry and abundance, if only for a moment.

And even though this was a known fact to everyone, people were celebrating nontheless. No matter where you went, you could see people dancing, singing, and cheering as they got into the festivities even before the late hours of the evening. A bitter smile spread across your lips as you thought about how macabre the celebration would seem in retrospective, should the rumors you had heard be confirmed.

Given the joy that the people of Dressrosa seemed to feel on this day, you could only hope for the opposite. And so, you strode forward, along the endless cobblestone streets of Dressrosa while the leisurely afternoon sun shone down on you and the people around you. In keeping with the good weather, you had thrown on light, airy festive clothes, whose fabrics elegantly wove around your body, while golden accessories made up the attention to detail.

Privately, you would never have let such close touch your body, especially because of the way it revealed so much of skin, only being used to the white suits you usually wore for work. But as an agent of the CP0, the only thing that counted was the success of your missions. And that's why you generously bit the bullet that your superior served you when he told you to get as close as possible to Dressrosa's protector and, at best, to engage him in conversation.

The premises you had to fulfill were thus clear. 1. You had to smuggle yourself among the people of Dressrosa as one of their own, hence the clothing you wore and 2. you had to do it in such a way that you would stand out from the crowd in spite of the king of Dressrosa, in order to attract his attention to you. Because of the big ego of the warlord, known all over the oceans, any other approach would be pride before the fall. Approaching the king from your side would make the king at least as wary of you as if you had stormed straight into his mansion with your CP0 suit to interrogate him.

This was a chess game where the playing colors were clearly distributed from the start. And to your condolences, the first move was not yours. So, you had to lay all your energy into the possibility of getting the attention of the warlord just from your looks and actions. But that was easier thought than done.

Because based on the information you had gathered about him in advance, he would never mingle with the "common people" like that. Like the king in chess, he would only stay close to his most expensive warriors, in order to destroy any attackers from there.

And for this reason, your walk across the festival brought you naturally to the only place where you thought you could conceivably implement this game of chess: The forecourt of the royal palace.

As you entered the beige paved plaza, the view of the palace left you speechless for a moment at the opulence that confronted you. Though the buildings of the world government with their classicist style you were used to a certain imposing at your workplace, the sight of the white-walled palace with its gigantic glass dome as a roof, confirmed you once again the detachment of reality a warlord like Doflamingo must live in.

With wide e/c eyes, you looked at the building in front of you, but it didn't take long before you turned your attention back to the plaza in front of you. From here on, every second mattered. Even one too-long disbelieving glance at the castle could instantly blow your identity as a stranger. Especially if someone from the Flamingo's beloved family saw you.

With a determined step, you went to a nearby stall to sit down for some refreshment, keeping an eye on the castle's entrance and exit, the large fountain with its cheerfully splashing water feature covering your luring form just a bit. Absently you went over your plan one more time, ordering a cold drink from a vendor in the meantime as music started to play from behind your ears. Apparently, a band of musicians had begun to play.

The way to the front courtyard of the castle in the scalding heat Dressrosas had exhausted even your trained body a bit, so you welcomed the cool liquid between your lips with great pleasure. You had just put the drink back on the counter, slid a few coins toward the vendor to pay for it, and taken a few steps back into the plaza when a loud boyish voice rose behind you.

Alarmed, you were about to turn around to see what was going on when suddenly something, or rather someone, ran into your legs and pulled the floor out from under you. Your quick reflexes could have easily saved you from the coming fall, but the risk of losing your cover was just too great. And so, as it would have happened to most people, you surrendered to your fate and landed with an unpleasant *slap* on your butt.

Noticeably annoyed by whoever gave you such an unpleasant landing, you let your gaze drag around you before you find a little boy barely a meter away from you on the ground. There we have the culprit...you think with a sigh before slowly rising from the hard cobblestone floor and carefully moving towards the boy who seems to have run into you. Next to him lies a white and gray spotted hat that probably fell off his head during his own fall.

With a firm grip you grab the hat and are about to give it back to the boy, a soft smile on your lips as you lean down to ask him "Are you okay?", but by then the boy has already snatched the hat from your hands to knock the dust off it, while fury-filled gray eyes glint at you. "Give it to me already!"

Briefly, you look at the boy in amazement. You immediately notice the unusual white patches from his terracotta-colored skin. Amber Lead? But weren't they all obliterated? Suspiciously, you look at the boy. Based on his darkening mine, he seems to notice that you've noticed his skin condition. Well, never mind. It's not like it was ever contagious. You straighten up self-consciously. "You're pretty cocky for running into me, kid! Didn't anyone ever teach you to apologize for something like that?"

His dark face brightens all at once, startled by the fact that you don't turn around on the toe of your shoes, as so many have done before when they discovered his mottled skin. It doesn't take long for him though before he recovers from his shock and wants to answer you back with a more confident grin. But just as he starts to speak, he is interrupted by a deep baritone voice that causes your pulse to skyrocket, suddenly realizing the presence in front of you. "Unfortunately, we have indeed failed to teach him about apologizing until this point."

Sweat rolls ice-cold down the back of your neck as you notice the man in front of you. How could you have failed to notice him until now? Were you so focused on the boy and his well-being?  You don't even have to raise your eyes to know who's in front of you. Still, your instincts led you to lift your gaze and face the Yakasha of Dressrosa, Donquixote Doflamingo.

Just a few feet away from you stood the tall man in all his grandeur, dressed in a burgundy suit and his branded pink coat, a smile on his face exposing a set of white straight teeth. Red glasses looked first at you and then at the boy, interested in the situation unfolding in front of him. Sweat ran further along the back of your neck in panic as you tried to get your pulse under control. If Doflamingo would get wind of it, your plan would be for the cat. Curse that little cheeky bastard!

"Fufufu...you really are a rascal, Law." The blonde man’s deep sneering voice rang out again as he took a few steps toward you and the boy. You eyed Doflamingo speechlessly, about to abort your mission and take flight, when the gigantic man...crouched down in front of you and the boy?! With your mouth slightly open, you gazed at the scene that began to unfold before you.

"How many times do I have to tell you to keep your temper in check outside of traing, Law?" With an annoyed sigh, the man flicked the little boy's forehead. "Ugh, that's not fair, Doffy! It's not my fault they got in my way!" Sulking, the little boy held the spot Doflamingo's finger had flicked. Doffy?! Dumbfounded, you looked towards the warlord, stunned that he enjoyed such a nickname in his closest circle, the Donquixote family.

Red glasses flashed at you again with interest a charming smile spreading over his tan features. "Fufufu, always ready with a few retorts, Law. But if I'm judging this correct, you've run from Giolla once again, so you own this lovely person an apology like they said."

You try as hard as you can to control the blush that shoots up your face at the blonde's compliment. It had been quite a while since someone had flirted with you so boldly, but you couldn´t get lost in sweet talk like this, when the person in question was your target himself.

At the same time, however, a new light of hope appeared to you. If you used Doflamingo's flirty offensive properly, you could get back on track with your original plan, despite the whole fiasco with the boy apparently named Law.

"Ugh, it's all right, Doffy. I'd rather apologize before you say any more gross stuff." With an evasive look, Law grumbles to himself, his hands shoved into his pants pockets like his Guardian beside him. "Sorry, I bumped into you."

A grin spreads across your lips before you confidently hold up a hand toward the little guy. "No problem, Law! Sorry I got in your way." The kid huffs at you, crossing his arms some more, taking your own hand, dubbing you "pretty weird, but alright" in the process and wandering off quickly. Left behind are just Doflamingo and you, who had been watching you, mere meters away from you through his dark glasses the whole time, a smirk on his lips.

The burning gaze of the man that he had laid on you would surely have must people buckle to their knees."Fufufu...please look past this little incident. Kids these days really aren't easy to tame. Especially not Law." You retort quickly at him, not letting the chance of keeping up the conversation, escape from your grasp. “Of course, I understand. He really looked like a handful. The blonde laughs, his eyes clearly scanning over your outfit, his eyes gluing to the golden accessories, you had been told would surely be in his favour. “Say, what´s your name? I´ve never seen you around here.” He licks himself quickly over the lips, his hands still in his pants as he asks for your name.

“Oh, right. I didn´t introduce myself. I´m y/n.” A quick bow follows your introduction. He seems pleased with your reaction, opening his mouth to reply to you, but you´re quick thinking mind won´t let him take the lead. “And if my hunch is right, you surely must be the king of this wonderful island. Donquixote Doflamingo!” you gesture at him. Pleased the Warlord grins at you, his body language showing you that he´s opening to you, from the flattering words. “You seem to have a good sense, y/n. That would be indeed me.” What an idiot…you grin to yourself, sure of yourself that it wouldn´t take to long to wrap this guy around your finger, if you kept up the sweet talk.

Despite your self-consciousness, of handling the situation, had had to say, you were pretty surprised when the tall man offered you his hand just a brief moment later. “Let me excuse myself once more properly for Law. After all he´s family and we don´t want you pretty little thing to remember Dressrosa and the Donquixote family badly.” he muses. “With a dance, if you will.”

He flashes you a charming smile, his presence allowing no rejection for an answer. You didn´t even have to calculate your next move, because even though you didn´t know at all how to dance, your instinct urged your body to move towards the tall warlord, the elegant clothing framing your body floating in the wind behind you as you take his hand, noticing how his eyes soak up your every movement of yours thinking to yourself, that if you played this right, the way to the success of your mission was free. Or so you thought.

Because as you suddenly were pulled awfully flush to Doflamingos tall frame, one of his large hands nestling itself right on your back, you realized, that giving the man even one chance of dominating you in which ever way, could be your death sentence. You gulped nervously.

 “Say, do you know how to dance tango, dear?” he grins at you. You shake your head at his question, a slight blush appearing on your cheeks at the thought of being let by him in a few seconds. He looks down at you, knowingly, a big Cheshire grin spread onto his sharp features as he whispers to you, “Then let me lead you through this little dance of ours. You´ll see how easy it is to follow my commands if you give yourself to me.”

Maybe, just maybe, you could indulge in this little moment with him. And after that, you could always win the lead back, full focus on your mission. But as soon as you took off, the band standing close to you, playing a rhythmic latin pop song, you somehow had a dark foresight, that this would be more difficult than you thought, by the way the blonde lead you dominantly through the dance, his hands directing every little move of your body as you got twirled around the plaza. And right you were, because like you would see later this day, if there was one art that Doflamingo was skilled in like no other, than that of utter domination.

People around you cheered on their king and savior as he danced with you. If somebody had told you that you would dance on one merry day in your life, with one of the warlords and Donquixote Doflamingo at that, you surely would have laughed at them. But right now, as you were in the situation of dancing with the man himself, accompanied by his tacky pink feather coat, just in front the castle he was residing in, you realized, that the reality of this thought wasn’t as bad as you thought. Much more the contrary. And this fact made you sick to the pit of your stomach, as he led you through the song, every passionate move calculated to perfection.

And calculated they were. Because in the time you cursed yourself mentally for the fun you had, dancing with the warlords over the plaza, he smiled to himself wickedly, relishing in the fact that the little CP0 agent, Trebol had warned him weeks prior, had already run deep into his trap, invisible strings already planted on your body, only waiting for him to be controlled than he already did, leading you through this dance, forcing you into total submission.

And submit you would. That was just the nature of every person who´s way intertwined with him, Donquixote Doflamingo, King of Dressrosa and for some, the devil himself. Though in your case, the submission he wished from you, was on the more improper side, then he usually demanded from people.

Because even though Doflamingo couldn´t care two shits about the fact that you were a CP0 agent, besides the fact that the world government had clearly showed him a big middle finger as warlord and would earn them corresponding consequences, he was keen on making you his. And if there was one thing that everybody knew of Donquixote Doflamingo, then that if he wanted something, he would get it. No matter at what cost.

As the song reached its final cord, Doflamingo caught you his arms, the two of you trying to catch their breath while people clapped delighted by your little show. “That was really fun.” You gripped onto the strong trained arms of the tan man, while he helped you to stand back up straight. “It was.” He nodded to you. “Though I must say, I really don´t like being lied to, dear y/n.”

You tense a little at this, looking up to his glass covered eyes. The tall man only chuckles at this with his signature laugh looking down at you from his tall height. “After all, this surely wasn´t your first-time dancing Tango, right?” You straighten up your back, mentally cursing the man for riling you up like this.

Is he toying with me?! The sudden thought intruded your head as soon as it was drilled out of it. That couldn´t be! If Doflamingo got a whiff of you being a CP0 agent, he surely would have killed you on the spot, right? Or maybe even worse. The thought alone made you shudder.

 “So? I´m not keen on waiting for answers, sweetheart” he gazed at you, thenicknameslipping off his tongue like sweet honey, earning a slight blush from you. You cleared your throat immediately in response. “Actually, no. I´ve never danced with anyone, for a fact.” He chuckles once more, still holding his arm around you, a vicious smile spreading on his features, “So I´m your first?”

At this comment, you actually would have liked to rip the stupid sunglasses off the nose of the man in front of you. But instead, you buried your dignity und your professionalism and responded to him with a fake giggle, “Well, you could say it like that.” Before calming yourself with the though, that all of this was for the success of your mission. You would get those god-damn information’s from Doflamingo. No matter what. As long as you didn´t have yourself away completely, you would even swallow your last inch of dignity and play a flirtatious game of cat and mouse with the great warlord.  

It this sole reason you keep going, twirling a h/c lock of yours, hoping to secure the attention of the Warlord on you further. “Though I must say, I would have never imagined for the King of Dressrosa himself to bestow me the honor of a wonderful first time like this.”

He responds with his own hearty laughter, his arm still not leaving your waist, as he leads you away from the middle of the plaza. “You sure know how to play with your words, sweetheart.” He grips your waist tighter, drawing small circles around it as he licks over his lips. “Though, if you had this much fun, then I can offer you another dance. A private one. Just the two of us.” He looks at you, smirking right at you, when your mouth opens and closes itself a few times, shocked by his sudden offensive offer.

“I-I´m sure a great king like you has far more important things to tend to, on an important day like this” You try so buy yourself some time with a quick excuse, mulling over the whole situation. “Fufufu, not at all, sweetheart. I appreciate your thoughtfulness though. Always a good thing for a lover to have.” He licks over his pinkish lips, relishing in the blush spreading over your cheeks.

God, damn this Flamingo! you cursed mentally, as a certain heat rushed to your core, anticipating how the situation you were in right now would unfold. “So tell me, dear y/n.” He stroked gently along your waist, “Will you indulge in this little sin together with me?”

You couldn´t say no. You just couldn´t. This was a fact you instantly realized. Because if you were to deny him, you would lose the chance of asking him out about the rumors. And besides that, even if your mission was top priority, you couldn´t deny the fact any longer, that the tacky blonde warlord was making you stupidly horny with his overflowing charisma.

You looked quickly down on the floor, then suddenly planting your hands on his broad chest, surprising Doflamingo a bit as you gently kissed him on the lips ushering a quick “I thought your majesty would never ask.”

He just laughed at that, Cheshire grin on his lips, hoisting you up with a firm grip on one of his arms, before thin, nearly invisible strings showed up under his feet, he swiftly hopped onto, carrying you to, what you supposed, to be his bedroom and ultimately the room where you would met your ultimate demise.

With a loud *thud* you were dropped onto a gigantic bed, red linen enveloping your body instantly as your body hit the soft mattress. You didn´t have much time to take the room around you in, because Doflamingo was over you in mere seconds, hands roaming greedily over your body while he kissed you passionatly, his tongue shoving itself dominantly in between your lips. You gasp in surprise as cold metal comes in contact with your own tongue.

A tongue piercing?!

It had been a while since you had been with someone, and especially with someone demanding as Doflamingo. You were cringing at the fact how wet you got just from the few heated kisses you had exchanged. His cold tongue piercing, protruding your own tongue every time, he tangled you up in another passionate kiss didn´t help for that fact.

Content with your responses, he gropes your rear, tugging at the soft material that envelopes your body. Squirming under his demanding touch, you try to get a handful yourself, roaming over the tall frame of the blonde, but suddenly being completely immobilized, by what seemed, an invisible force holding you in place. “We don´t play like that, sweetheart.”

You gasp at the sudden force, holding your frame in place, a low chuckle leaving the throat of the man atop of you as you whince, a sudden pain on your ankles and the feeling of a warm liquid showing you that you had cut yourself on somethin. “I wouldn´t want to move too much if I were you. Those strings can get really sharp if one struggles too much.” Your eyes widen, horrified, as you realize that the warlord seemingly had used the power of his devil fruit on you. “What´s your deal?!” you muffle, trying to stay calm, the sudden tension in the situation not being to your liking, at all.

Could it, be?! Your breath hitched.

“Fufufu, I should be the one asking that.” He smiles at you wickedly, fear rising from the pits of your stomach. You had a bad feeling about this. And if you would be right about it, then you were in the most horrible situation right now.

 “I didn´t know world government sends out sluts nowadays for their missions.” As soon as the words leave the lips of the warlord, it runs ice-cold down your spine, a menacing smile showing his pearly white teeth to you. “You really have a nerve to stroll around my kingdom on a day like this, trying to get some kind of information out of me. Luckily that little brat Law ran into you. To dumb only the world government and warlords know about Amber Lead not being contagious.”

Horrified, you look at the man atop of you as he gackles meanly at you. “And now look at you. All tied up, in the trap I set out for you.” You gasp as he suddenly pushed his long thick fingers between your legs, fingers pressing against your clothed core, his smile widening as he discovers the wet patch. “Fufufu, someone's eager.”

“Shut up!” you growl at him, trying to close your legs but failing miserably due to the sharp strings holding your body in place, cutting yourself on the razor sharp threads. “Watch your words, little one. You´re in no place to spite me.” he purrs, pressing harder onto your folds, the material between you creating just the right friction. You try to stifle the moan, wanting to escape you.

“Now tell me, sweetheart…why does the CP0 send me a slut? Are they that short on staff?” he taunts you, fingers agonizingly slow circling around your clothed private parts. “Don´t ridicule me! I´m an agent!” you spit at him, concentrating on not giving yourself away to him any more than you already had. “Fufufu, if that´s really true then I´m shocked how desperate you were mere seconds ago to indulge with me fucking you.” Cackling to himself, he tightened the grip of the strings on your body a bit, the strings cutting uncomfortably into your skin. “Or did the thought of getting it on with me, turn you on so much, that it clouded your ability to think straight, little agent?”

A groan left your body, your pulse speeding up as the pressure of the thin white cords. You cursed yourself mentally for the wetness that pooled between your legs, relishing in the snug feelings of Doflamingos strings pulling your hands and legs in place. “My, my, how obscene. If I wouldn´t know it better, I would say you really get off from this.” Menacingly, the blonde smirked, lowering his face right next to yours, his long tongue lolling out of his mouth, revealing the gold piercing once again. “But I guess, being controlled by somebody else is just in your nature, huh?”

“That´s not true.” You reply instantly, though suddenly realizing, that maybe, he wasn´t completely wrong. You were only a tool used by the world government to do whatever they wanted. They didn´t care two shits about you, sending you single-handedly to Dressrosa right into the hands of the Yaksha himself, cowering dangerously close right atop of you. As soon as you bit the dust, they would substitute you. Horrified you looked back at Doflamingo.

“What now? Don´t tell me you never once thought about this.” He laughed at you further, Tears pricking hotly at your eyes. You try to suppress them, but the utter horror of your failure combined with the fact that the CP0 would probably throw you away as soon as they heard of it, was too much to handle. Besides your current situation of being trapped under the dangerous Donquixote Doflamingo himself, that is. The laugh of the blonde man made the whole ordeal a thousand times worse. If you could, you just would have ceased to exist on the spot.

But as soon at the warlord realized your tears, he suddenly got quiet. A long-calloused finger brushed over your check, wiping it away, licking the fluid from his finger with his long tongue. “Tears really don´t suit your pretty face, sweetheart. It also doesn´t solve a thing.” You hiccup at him, completely dazed by your emotions.

Seemingly mulling something over in his head, he brushes through your hair, tan long fingers gently rippling through your h/c locks. Then he stops and looks you dead in your e/c eyes.

“Let me make you an helping offer.” His glasses shine at you. “You see, despite the people’s opinions, I´m not a total monster.” you shudder as his hands slowly traces from your head down your body, a gasp escaping your lips as he reaches your thighs, gripping them deliciously. “Since you´re pretty much dead for Cipher Pole, why don´t you give yourself to me? You´ll be a great addition to my family as a former Agent.” You look at him, still helplessly dazed the only thing coming out of your throat being a hoarse “Why.”

“See it as a win-win situation.” He lifts both of his hands up showing all of his ten slender fingers to you, grinning at you manically “A perfect puppet for a perfect puppeteer.”

“Sound like a match-made in heaven.”  you say sulky, still broken from your utterly miserable failure. 

“And…” he pauses dramatically, coming a bit closer to your face. “We can still indulge in this little sin of ours, if that´s still what you want” He cages you again, as his face looms right next to you. You look briefly at him, shutting your eyes for a mere second, before opening them up again and giving him a defeated nod.  Even a blind person could see that your situation was utterly a dead end.

You had failed your mission. Or as Cipher Pole would lay it out to you, you also had failed at being one of their top agents, making your existence in their ranks utterly worthless. And though you were broken for the moment, trying to progress your failure slowly, you know deep down, that you didn´t have a death wish. Which is why you told the menacing men over you directly to his face: “I agree. Under one condition.” He raises his eyebrow questioningly.

“I want to dance with you again.”  As you gave Doflamingo your condition, the tall blonde looked at you for a brief second, apparently not anticipating your answer. Then he began to laugh loudly, cupping your check gently, yet determined to calm himself.

“Fufufu, you´re really something!” He cups your jaw with two long fingers, continuing. “You´re wish shall be granted. Afterall, there´s no shame in wanting to dance with the devil.” Then the strings on your body suddenly disappear, letting you move your tensed up limbs a bit. You sigh in relief, surprised at the newfound freedom. Just as you want to scramble into a more comfortable position on the big bed, a determined hand pushes you back in place.

“Did I say you could move?” You look up to the blonde, now freed from his tacky coat, jacket and shirt, only residing in his dress pants. Your mouth begins to water at the sight in front of you. The defined muscle on the bronze skin of the warlord has your breath pitch high, but what really catches your attention are the two gold bars, that decorate his pink nipples.

“Cat got your tongue?” Doflamingo smirks at you, seemingly pleased by your reaction. In all of his adventurous encourages, there was nobody -men or women- who yet wasn´t flabbergasted by his godly body, the piercings always being just the icing on the cake. He grinned as you clutched your thighs together, obviously turned on by his sight.

I´m gonna have a lot of fun with this one… he thought to himself, before closing the distance between your two bodies, claiming your lips in the process, broad hands freeing you from the suffocating material that hid your bare skin offensively from him. If you didn´t know already that Doflamingo was a menace to himself and the people around him, you would have known it now, was when the powerful Yaksha growled into your ear:

“Be sure to give me a good show, sweetheart. We want the whole kingdom to know what a naughty little slut you are for your new king. See this as your rebirth ritual.”

Mere minutes later, only loud groans, desperate crys of pleasure and the slapping of skin could be heard in the bedroom of the Yaksha Dressrosas. The tall blonde man was sheeted balls deep into you, his long length stretching you out to the fullest. You on the other hand layed on your belly while he fucked you mercilessly from behind, hands on your hips, while your own were being hold on your back bis thin strings of his.

An especially low groan left the blondes lips, as he drilled his hard cock depper than before inside you. You cried out in response, taking him surprisingly well, walls snug around him, sucking him in deeper with every new thrust. Ravishing in getting railed like this you leveled yourself on your elbows, trying to hold your hips against Doflamingos grip, creating even more friction between you two.

“Now, look at that.” He grins widely, one hand gripping on your neck, pushing your head into the mattress. “Didn´t think you could take me so well. I feel flattered, sweetheart.” You mewl at the nickname, lost in pleasure as Doflamingo thrusts relentlessly into you.

Moaning loudly from the pleasure you received, you buried your head further into the linen under you, shirking loudly when the man suddenly pulled out of you and turned you on your side, plunging himself back into you after angling one of your legs up into the air with his strings.

“F-Fuck, D-Doflamingo!"

“Doffy.” He just grunts bluntly, not stopping in his motions of fucking you senseless. You blink at him, irritated. “D-Doffy?” You try the name out once more, getting used to the taste how it glides from your tongue. “Yeah, just like that.” he retorts, fingers digging into the flesh of your hips, hoisting himself into you, before musing, “Sounds pretty from your lips.”

You blush at his comment, looking away quickly, hands digging into the linen under you, the same feelings of adoration bubble up inside you, hating how much you loved seeing the more passionate side of the man in front of you. A sudden pressure on your abdomen snaps you out of your thoughts. “Attention on me, sweetheart. I want you to be fully there when I fill you up.”

You look up at Doffy, e/c eyes widen with surprise as he looks down on you, his face eyebrows scrunched together, forehead in wrinkles as he´s seemingly close to his release. The moment he´s sure your focus is back on the present, he gives you a big grin, licks over his lips and turns you back on your back wrapping his arms around your torso tightly, starting to pound back into you, pressing his tip into you as deep as he can. “Ah, D-Doffy!” you cry out, nails digging into his broad tan back, leaving red marks on it.

“God, you feel so nice around me, sweetheart.” He groans into the nape of your neck, his orgasm coming closer by the second, finally snapping as you press your hips flush against his, searching for your own sweet release, which didn´t wait any longer, than a few extra thrusts on the warlords side.

Tired, you let yourself fall onto the mattress, closing your eyes with a content sigh. You don´t even realize how the tall man pulls out of you, only registering his absence between your legs when you suddenly get pulled into his warm embrace from behind, pushing his seed back into you as it pools from the insides of your legs. “Fufufu, now now y/n, don´t waste a single drop your king gave you so graciously.”

Startled, you look at the warlord. “Just relax, okay?” He muses, drawing small circles over your belly. “You´re with me now.” “But the government...” you start but get interrupted from Doffy scoffing at you. “Like I said, you´re with me now. They wouldn´t dare to lay a finger on a member of my family. Besides that, they already showed me a big fuck you by sending you in” he huffs, pulling you closer against his firm chest.

For a brief second, you're speechless. Then, defeated by the blonde’s logic, you try to ease into him, the smell of sandalwood and grapefruit mixing in your nose with the overall scent of sex in the air. At least you were reassured, that the Donquixote leader had no intention of you getting hurt. Well, expect maybe of him, if you wished for that. But that would be for another story.

“So, tell me y/n.” You could feel the Cheshire grin of the taller man behind you on the nape of your neck as he asked, “Did you like this private dance with me?” You just nodded, still tired from the passionate make out you just indulged in with the warlord, the whole situation just slowly sinking into your fucked out mind.

“Good.” He grins some more, hugging your form more into him. “Because now that you’re with the Donquixote Family, you´ll have a lot more chances to dance with the devil.”

A Dance of Stars: The Synastry of Juno and Venus

Once upon a time, under a velvet sky etched with constellations, two souls wandered, each drawn by the light of the other. He was a man with Juno in his heart, a seeker of true companionship and a guardian of vows, while she carried Venus in her essence, radiating love, beauty, and the art of connection.

The Encounter

In the quaint town of Celestia, known for its stargazing plains, their paths crossed at the annual Festival of Lights. Amidst lanterns floating into the night and melodies that whispered through the breeze, Juno's gaze met Venus's eyes, and in that moment, the universe seemed to hush in anticipation.

Juno's Yearning:

Devotion: He longed for a bond that would stand the test of time, a partner who would be his equal, his rock.

Commitment: His soul yearned for more than fleeting passion; he sought a deep, unwavering connection.

Harmony: He dreamt of someone who would complement him, a relationship that would be a sanctuary of peace.

Venus's Desire:

Affection: Her heart was an endless well of love, seeking someone to cherish and to be cherished by in return.

Beauty: She saw the world with an artist's eyes, craving a partner who could appreciate the symphony of life's colors with her.

Unity: She wished for a love that was not just about two people, but a joining of spirits in a dance of joy.

The Synastry Unfolds

As they talked, the festival around them blurred into a background of twinkling lights and soft laughter. They shared stories of dreams painted in the hues of their hearts. Juno's protective nature resonated with Venus's nurturing warmth; his stability was the anchor to her free-flowing grace.

The Mirror of Souls:

Balance: Juno's steadfastness complemented Venus's vibrancy, creating a harmony that felt as old as the cosmos.

Understanding: Venus's empathy bathed Juno's fears in tenderness, while his sincerity brought a sense of security to her world.

Growth: Together, they found a love that was both a sanctuary and a crucible for growth, where they could be their truest selves.

The Promise

Under the starlit dome, Juno took Venus's hand, and they danced, bodies and hearts in sync. In the silent language of glances and soft smiles, they made an unspoken vow.

A Cosmic Connection:

Eternal: Their love was not just written in the stars but was a constellation of its own, each moment a starlight in their shared sky.

Dynamic: As they moved to the rhythm of the universe, their love story unfolded, an ever-evolving masterpiece.

True: In the world of fleeting desires, they found an evergreen garden in each other, where love bloomed in endless spring.

And so, Juno and Venus twirled through life, their synastry a testament to the beauty of souls designed to complement, balance, and enrich one another. In the celestial waltz of existence, their love was a melody that would echo through the ages, a romance written not just in the stars but in the very fabric of the universe.

Much More Than Just A Princess (Empires SMP)

Summary: Princess Katherine first ball in a long time

Read on AO3

---

Katherine was fine, really! 

This wasn’t her first ball, far from it: she was used to the long, endless, hours that the balls her parents held in Glimmergrove seemed to extend to. Still, it’s been awhile since she was actually invited to one. 

Since the fall and the… rumors about her curse, Katherine hasn’t been invited to any of the Glimmergrove festivities. Her parents kept saying it was for the best, just leave it to them and they would handle everything! So she was kept away from the public eye, hidden as if a curse could just be looked over, swept under a rug and never addressed. The people were happy and the kingdom still was as festive as ever, she just wasn’t part of it anymore.

It was to great surprise when a small child with wings in its shoes knocked on her tailor shop and just handed her a sealed letter with the biggest grin in their face, leaving as soon as they arrived with a messenger bag over their shoulders. The letter, it turned out, was from Lord Protector Sausage, inventing the rulers to the first ball from the newly reestablished Sanctuary. 

The thrill and joy of being invited to such an occasion clouded all her worries. She recalled the grand ballroom of her parents' palace, the blinding lights and the orchestra music that flew through the place, coming as far as to reach her room. And so, she agreed without a second thought.

And, well, she doesn’t regret it, really! 

But now, the anxiety is consuming her.

Sanctuary is different from Glimmergrove. So very different. For starters, there was no castle or ballroom. The ball was being held in the kingdom square, hanging lanterns for atmosphere lighting and small market stalls for food and drinks. 

“It’s good for the local economy! I especially recommend you try plátano maduro frito or arroz con leche!” Sausage said while greeting her, and she had to concede that it was a great idea to do so.

The music was live and played by a small group in the bandstand, instead of the orchestra she was expecting. It was fun and the music was captivating, but she just couldn't shake the feeling of the unfamiliarity of it all. 

And that she was going to, somehow, mess it all up.

Katherine tried to not think too much about the curse, because, really, there was no way to prove it was even real. But in the back of her mind, after years of being accused and told that she was the cause of the fall and the bringer of monsters, she can’t help but believe it. Talking about it is easy, it warns people that something may be off without having to explain over and over again. 

‘I'm possibly cursed’ she would say, nothing more. And people would believe her, taking her words at face value. The other rulers knew, for the most part. And they were still around. But Katherine is cursed, probably since birth. And good things don’t last long with curses around.

 The ball is wonderful and everyone is happy to enjoy the good music and food offered by Sausage. The view is incredible and laughter rings in the air. Joey keeps trying to whisk her for a dance, promising that there will be no one better to dance with, which Katherine keeps refusing. Joey is sweet, but he knows nothing of her, and, despites Katherine’s best efforts, insists that they belong together. 

It’s in one of such tries that Katherine finds herself again.

“My beautiful pirate princess!” Joey declares once again, bowing and holding a small blackthorn in his hand. Katherine can’t even imagine where he found it “Fate has brought us together once again! Say yes and allow me to dance with the rarest jewel in all the seven seas!”

“Joey, this is all very nice and all. But, I don’t really want to dance tonight.” 

“Is it the lack of treasure that makes you decline?” Joey tries, straightening up

“Not really, n-”

“I swear that I’ll bring you the grandest coffer the world could ever see! Even better than all that gold I found last time.”

“Gold?” Asks Joel, the conversation catching his attention “Why, if the princess won’t take it, I would gladly have the treasure you brought.”

“Only Katherine is deserving of that pillage!” Joey laughed, ready to boast about the treasure he had found “Even the most oblivious landlubber could see how great the sphere of gold- and my proposal- was!”

Katherine wouldn’t say great, the proposal coming more as unneeded than anything. But that made Joel pause, his eyes glinting with something unknown.

“... A gold sphere, you say?” His voice was serious, unlike anything Katherine heard from the god.

“Indeed!” Joey continued “Found it in the sky, clearly not being looked after. The scallywag that first had it surely was a naive one to leave it unattended.”

Oh.

Oh no, no. 

Joey was reckless, sure, but to that extent?

“I’m, uh.” Katherine started, walking away from the other two as quickly as possible “I’m gonna go find Sausage!”

She bolted to one of the stands, asking about the Sanctuary Protector. She needed to find him before a full fight escalated. Luckly, they pointed her to a building nearby and she was quick to head in that direction.

She entered in a hurry, relieved to be away from the commotion but still on edge. The building was, evidently, Sausage’s house, the man in question tending to a woman that was sitting on a divan. Her movements were quite sluggish and unrefined, and Katherine thought she might be drunk at first glance.

“You were great, Gem!” Sausage praised “You actually stayed so much longer than we anticipated!”

“Don’t patronize me, Sausage..” The woman -Gem, it was how Sausage called her- retorted.

“I’m not! I swear y-”

“Hey…Sausage?” Katherine interrupted.

“Katherine! Hi!” Sausage beamed “Enjoying the ball, so far?”

“Yes, yes. But, uh…”

“Is something the matter?” He asked, suddenly worried.

“Kind of?” She tried “Joey admitted to stealing Joel’s gold sphere”

“The Stratosphere?!” Sausage exclaimed, distressed. And then started mumbling “¿Se volvió loco? ¡Roba lo más importante de Stratos!” He pauses, taking a deep breath “I’ll deal with that, sure.”

Sausage got up, then glanced at Gem. He hummed and looked back at Katherine.

“Katherine, can you stay with Gem for a minute? Just until one of her aristocrats comes for her.”

She nods “Sure, I can do that!”

Sausage smiles and takes his leave.

And Katherine is suddenly uncomfortable. She can recall seeing Gem before, when most of the rulers went to investigate the End, but they never actually talked. She doubts the other even knows her name.

She rocks back and forth on her feet for a while, ignoring how she’s not acting very princess-like at the moment. Then Gem gently pats the space next to her in the divan.

“Come sit down.” She smiles “Sorry for not being very proper right now.”

“Oh, it’s alright!” Katherine sits quickly “I don’t think, we met before?”

Gem hums “Yeah, not really. You were on the trip to the End, right? I’m Princess Gem, from Dawn.” She extends her hand.

“Yes, I was!” She takes the offer “I’m Princess Katherine, from Glimmergrove”

“The cursed lands?” Gem inquires, in the middle of a yawn.

Katherine freezes at that. She knew, of course, that rumors would spread around about the curse. Yet, she never heard it directed at Glimmergrove. 

“Oh.” She says after a while.

“Was that insensitive?” Gem’s eyes widened, as if just realizing what she said “I’m so sorry! I’m not used to staying up past the sunset, I’m probably not filtering anything right now.”

“It’s fine, really” Katherine insists “Just wasn’t expecting it, that’s all!”

Gem gives a relieved sigh “Oh, thank goodness!”

Katherine nods, unsure of what to say next. She looks down at her hands, wishing to be wielding her battle axe at the moment. She was used to its weight on her hands during most nights, and it brought her comfort to hold it knowing she was actively able to help her people.

But her hand was still holding Gem’s own, none of the two had realized that.  Katherine dislocated her hand carefully, too embarrassed to bring it up.

“Not used to staying up past the sunset?” She brings it up.

Gem nods, her eyes closing for a second too long.

“At Dawn, we wake up with the bees and fall asleep before the moon rises.” She explains “We try to make the most of the hours under the sun.”

“Oh!” Not drunk then, just sleepy “That explains it.”

Gem hummed back, but Katherine supplied no explanation.

“Was that why Sausage was here?” Katherine continued.

“Yes. He was trying to make sure I wouldn’t fall asleep.” Gem explained “I insisted I was fine and that he should just stay at the ball, but he persisted.”

“Yeah, sounds like Sausage.” 

The two laughed a bit, only to Gem to yawn again. Katherine hummed, an idea sparkling up on her.

“I can help you if you wanna stay awake a little longer!”

“You can?” Gem asked, doubt in her voice.

“Yes!” She got up, extending her hand to Gem “You just have to keep it a secret.”

Gem raised an eyebrow at that, but took Katherine’s hand anyway.

“Alright sure.”

Katherine grinned and pulled Gem up. She put her finger in front of her mouth, motioning to make sure she would stay silently. The two of them quietly made their way out of the house, the sound of the ball behind them. Katherine glanced back quickly, seeing that Sausage was still trying to prevent Joey and Joel from escalating their argument, the rest of the rulers a mix of egging them on and expectating the whole ordeal. 

The two princesses made their way to a small clearing  on the outskirts of Sanctuary, far enough to not be seen but close enough that the music could still be faintly heard.

“Uh, Katherine?” Gem started “It’s way too dark for us to be out here.”

“That is exactly why we are here!”

Gem blinked at her “I’m not following this logic. Won’t monsters come after us here?”

Katherine simply smiled, letting go of Gem’s hand. 

The transformation started just like it always did: her outfit fluttered around her, the fabric stiff and so familiar after many nights like this. The dress she wore to the ball was great, her own design and as graceful as a princess gown wear could be, but it was no battle attire. Her monster hunter attire made her feel much more at ease, as if she could do anything as soon as the armor and mask appeared. Her hands hold onto her battle axe, sharp and bigger than her, but comfortable and familiar as soon as its weight settles.

Gem gapes at her.

“I-...you..-What?!”

“Yeah, I know, right?” Katherine swung the axe over her shoulder “I’m a monster slayer. Kind of”

“What do you mean kind of?”

“It’s a secret thing. My parents would kill me if they knew.”

Gem just blinks up at that, clearly ready to ask more questions. But she suddenly gasps in fear, pointing behind Katherine.

“Creeper!”

“Oh, be ready, Gem! It’s starting!” Katherine smiles.

“Ready? I’m not fighting!”

“Didn’t you want to stay awake?” she asks, swinging the axe over to another mob nearby “What better way than thorough adrenaline?”

Gem stared at her, disbelief clear in her eyes, but she jumped into action when a zombie neared her. 

The two princesses kept fighting for a while, laughter bubbling out of them every now and again. Gem tripped over her skirt, and Katherine deemed the hunting done, placing a torch on the ground. She sat down besides Gem, chest heaving but still giddy.

“That was-” Gem started, pausing to breathe “So! Crazy!”

“Did it help?”

“Help?” Gem’s eyes widened “I feel like I could spend a week without sleeping!”

They both laughed. They stayed like that for a moment more, enjoying the faint music of the ball.

"That's good.” Katherine continued “Told you adrenaline would do the trick!”

“Oh, shush!” Gem gently slapped her shoulder “You could at least have told me we were fighting mobs!”

“And ruin the surprise?”

Gem laughed, getting up again and offering her hand to Katherine. She accepted, and once she was stable on the ground again, she destransformed. Gem smiled at her, and then bowed slightly.

“Princess Katherine from Glimmergrove.” she looked up, a cheeky smile on her face “I can still hear the music from here. Would you give me the honor of a dance?”

Katherine laughed, the formal tone so distinct from the careless way the two of them were just a few minutes ago.

“Why, Princess Gem from Dawn” the other giggled “I thought you would never ask.”

Gem puts her other hand to Katherine’s waist, pulling her closer. Katherine puts her hand to Katherines’s shoulder. She follows the other lead as she spins her around the clearing. She steps on Gem’s dress a few times, not used to dancing after all this time, and lets out a few quiet apologies, Gem reassuring that it’s okay. 

And they both laugh when Gem dips her, wings fluttering on Gem’s back, even if it’s a little awkward when she stumbles backwards. Yet, she trusts Gem not to drop her to the ground. 

She knows that they will need to come back to Sanctuary soon, both to the ball and for the Dawn's aristocrats that will be looking for Gem. 

But for now she is happy to spin aimlessly in the clearing, thinking she could get used to this.

A fairytale about Wonderland for little blessing princesses #PapaTui's Jasmine, Tiana, and little #Blessing princess Malti Marie Jonas ))

Best regards, autor @LapinaMargarita

Have a #BlessingYear2024! #WeloveBestFuture #1095fraz #WelovePCJ2024 #WeloveDj2024 "In time immemorial, when the trees were mighty giants, and the stars high in the sky reminded of the endless harmony of the universe, in one fairy-tale country there lived a young painter - a prince and his father, the legendary ruler of the Wonderland.

The New Year holiday was approaching, and the ruler ordered to decorate the palace and throne room with festive garlands and snowflakes. In the throne room, he announced that from now on his heir is the Minister of Literary Affairs and Creative Affairs.

The grayhaired wizard Willie stepped forward: - Let the prince explain what magic recipe or formula he will use to develop his ministry! The young prince extended his hand; on his wrist he had a bracelet with the letters V, N, I, V, I engraved on it and said: - These principles are easy to remember, there are as many of them as there are fingers on your hand. Like cooking gourmet meals, our community's recipe for success can be broken down into a few key elements. Inspiration. I will multiply it in my ministry. As Minister of Literary Affairs, I will enrich my subjects with innovative ideas. Neurosphere. In our kingdom, it is important to create a network of connections with other wizards and artists in the fields of literature and creative arts. I will hire sages, artists, minstrels, writers and wizards to create the best ministry of literary affairs. I use miracle technologies! In the age of miracles, they play an important role in the development of literature and the creative arts. We will create the latest tools for creating unique ideas, books and fairs. This will help our ministry stay ahead of all countries and kingdoms. Attention and support. Confidence in our own abilities will help us attract the attention and love of all kingdoms. Art. In our ministry, art plays an important role in developing talent and supporting bright minds. We can help young people master the art of writing and magic. Supporting new talent is the basis for the prosperity of this ministry. By following these recipes for success, powerful leaders will become influential people in the world of literary affairs and the arts. Imagine how much potential there is in our kingdom, we must awaken and inspire the next generation of creators and writers! In the throne room, the great ruler hugged the young prince tightly. There was applause and joyful greetings for the young Minister of Literary Affairs. Several days passed. For the New Year, the prince painted a picture of extraordinary beauty. She was alive - when the viewer came up and looked at her, he felt the freshness and warmth of the spring morning. His father, the wise ruler of the Wonderland, called the painting “The Seventh Heaven” and compared this masterpiece to morning meditation, when a person feels the greatness of the microcosm and the infinity of the spaces. After such a compliment from his father, who was reserved in praise, the young prince felt great joy within himself. He realized that the “seventh heaven” is not just the embodiment of his ideas, but a state of mind when all boundaries merge together and a person becomes in tune with the cosmic symphony, which welcomes the onset of a new life. The prince decided to give his beloved this painting as a sign of fidelity and sincere love. Love in New Year is to have fun, walk, talk, please each other with compliments and gifts. Feel your soulmate. Every day, meeting her, the prince simply melted with happiness. After all, this is the real magic of the New Year - to love and be loved. Human genius created the New Year holiday, saturated with the fragrant smells of tangerines, which parents give to children along with gifts, a Christmas tree illuminated with lanterns and bright ideas, harmony, talent and beauty. Since then, every year, during the holidays, people get together to recreate the miracle of the New Year. Their souls dance and their hearts are filled with delight, creating their own legend about the holidays, New Year and magic"

Tropical Party Lights: Festive Vibes for Celebrations

Tropical Party Lights: Festive Vibes for Celebrations

When it’s time to throw a party, creating the right atmosphere is key to making your event unforgettable. And what better way to create an ambiance of fun and festivity than with tropical party lights? Dive into this comprehensive guide to illuminate your celebrations with the vibrant and lively allure of the tropics.

From string lights to LED palm trees, we’ll explore the options, share creative usage ideas, and arm you with the best tips to bring your tropical party vision to life.

Why Tropical Party Lights?

Tropical party lights go beyond mere illumination — they set a tone that’s both relaxed and celebratory. Whether you’re hosting a summer soiree or simply want to inject a bit of that island spirit into your event, these party lights can transform any space, indoor or outdoor.

Tropical Party Lights Greenery Backdrop With Letter Led Lights

With their bright colors and playful designs, tropical party lights naturally evoke a sense of joy and vitality. The gentle sway of tiki torches in the wind or the soft, warm glow of LED palm trees can transport your guests to a carefree paradise, even if just for the night.

Lights play a subtle yet significant role in how guests experience your party. The right combination of tropical LEDs can turn a nondescript backyard into a luau, or a quiet poolside gathering into a lively beach bash. The memories they help create are as lasting as the light they cast.

Types of Tropical Party Lights

When it comes to tropical décor, the possibilities are as endless as the ocean. Here are some of the popular types of tropical party lights to guide you in making a selection:

String Lights

Led party lights are the workhorses of any event lighting. Drape them along fences and arbors to create a twinkling canopy, or let them line the edges of your patio for a crisp, festive outline.

Tropical Party Lights Coconut Tree With String Lights Indoor

Lanterns

Fabric or paper lanterns are a versatile choice. They come in various sizes and can be hung or placed on the ground to guide the way or add depth to your lighting design.

LED Palm Trees

For a more impactful tropical look, consider freestanding LED palm trees. They are a one-stop-shop for lighting and décor, instantly turning any space into an island-inspired oasis.

Ideas for Using Tropical Party Lights

How and where you use your tropical party lights will depend on the type of celebration and your personal style. Here are some ideas to spark your creativity:

For garden parties or outdoor dinners, use a combination of string lights and party lights for outdoor to frame the dining area. Tiki torches can mark pathways or the entrance, providing an inviting glow.

Tropical Party Lights Pineapple String Lights

Take advantage of reflections on the water by placing outdoor party lights near the pool. LED palm trees can be positioned to shadow over the water, giving the impression of a moonlit oasis.

Even a casual backyard barbecue can benefit from the added charm of tropical party lights. String any disco lights for party above the seating area for a relaxed vibe, or mix and match various types for a dynamic, layered effect.

Tips for Choosing and Setting Up Tropical Party Lights

The right setup can mean the difference between a mediocre display and an outstanding one. Incorporate these tips for a lighting design that truly shines:

Your choice of lights should be proportionate to the size and style of your venue. A small garden could be overwhelmed by too much outdoor lighting, just as a large backyard may look sparse with only a few string lights.

Tropical Party Lights Floral Shaped Projector Ground Garden Lights

Match the color scheme of your lights to the overall theme of your party. Bright, tropical colors work well for playful events, while softer, beach-inspired hues are perfect for relaxed gatherings.

To create a visually appealing layout, lights should be placed at different heights and depths. This might mean hanging some, pinning others higher up on structures, and placing a few at ground level. The interplay of light and shadow adds complexity to your design.

Finally

Tropical party lights are a fantastic way to infuse any social gathering with the carefree spirit of the islands. With the information provided, you’re well on your way to arranging a celebration that’s not only illuminated but positively bursting with personality. Be bold in your choices, thoughtful in your design, and watch as your lights guide your guests to a truly memorable event.

So, embrace the tropical party trend and let the lights lead the way to an unforgettable evening of merriment. With this detailed guide, you’re set to take your party decor to the next level. Let the festivities commence!

[luxdecoration]

Diwali, the festival of lights, is a time of joy, celebration, and vibrant decorations that illuminate homes with warmth and happiness. As you prepare to welcome this auspicious occasion, it's essential to infuse your living spaces with the spirit of Diwali through creative and eye-catching decorations. Whether you prefer traditional motifs or modern aesthetics, there are endless possibilities to adorn your home for the festivities.

One of the classic diwali decoration ideas is to decorate the entrance of your home with colorful rangoli designs made from vibrant powders, rice, or flower petals. These intricate patterns not only welcome guests with beauty but also symbolize prosperity and good luck. You can enhance the entrance further by stringing up fairy lights or lanterns to create a magical pathway leading to your door.

Inside your home, diyas (traditional oil lamps) are a must-have for Diwali decorations. Arrange them in clusters on windowsills, mantels, or tables to illuminate your space with a warm, flickering glow. For a modern twist, consider LED diyas that offer the same charm without the hassle of oil and wicks.

To add a touch of luxury and elegance to your Diwali decor, incorporate metallic accents such as gold or silver decorative items, candle holders, or vases. These shimmering details can instantly elevate the ambiance of your home and create a sophisticated festive look.

Creating a stunning centerpiece for your Diwali celebrations can be a focal point of your decorations. Consider a floral arrangement with marigolds and roses, traditional symbols of beauty and auspiciousness. You can also opt for colorful candles or aromatic incense sticks to add a fragrant and visual appeal to your table setting.

For those who enjoy DIY projects, Diwali offers a perfect opportunity to get creative. You can craft paper lanterns, origami decorations, or handmade torans (door hangings) using recycled materials. These personalized touches not only showcase your artistic skills but also add a personalized and eco-friendly element to your decor.

When decking out your home for Diwali, don't forget the importance of lighting. Overhead chandeliers, floor lamps, and string lights can create a dazzling and festive atmosphere. Experiment with colored bulbs or dimmer switches to set the mood and enhance the beauty of your decorations.

Lastly, remember that the essence of Diwali lies in celebrating with loved ones and spreading joy and positivityspirit of togetherness and gratitude that defines this special festival.

Illuminate Your Nights: Outdoor Lighting Services That Sparkle

In the realm of landscaping and exterior design, outdoor lighting holds a distinct role in transforming a property from ordinary to extraordinary. Beyond mere illumination, outdoor lighting services offer an opportunity to create ambiance, enhance safety, and showcase the beauty of your outdoor space. From highlighting architectural features to illuminating pathways and garden beds, outdoor lighting adds depth and character to your property while extending its functionality well into the night.

Architectural Lighting: One of the most captivating ways to utilize outdoor lighting is by illuminating the architectural features of your home or building. Whether it's casting a warm glow on stone facades, accentuating columns, or highlighting intricate details, architectural lighting adds drama and sophistication to your property's exterior. By strategically placing lights, shadows are utilized to create depth, texture, and visual interest, turning your home into a mesmerizing nighttime masterpiece.

Landscape Lighting: Transforming your garden or landscape into a breathtaking nocturnal scene is easily achievable with landscape lighting. From softly lighting up flower beds and trees to accentuating water features and sculptures, landscape lighting adds a magical touch to outdoor spaces.
