An illustration depicting a man and child embracing, almost clinging to one another. These two people are two different Arthurs, one younger, whilst the other is older. They look to be falling, a large body of water parting under them, and tattered yellow ribbons drifting upward, crumbling apart. There are a couple of nooses in the water under Arthur's feet. There is a frame behind them that is filled with the night sky. The frame features a decorative pattern, along with carved rabbits, and a lighter in the top center, engraved with the text 'This too shall pass'.

Crazy concluding talk by Ivan de Araujo about the role of the central amygdala in regulating the vagal nerve in response to stress. It causes altered immunity through inhibition of mucosal secretion in the gut!! Absolutely fascinating to reveal the mechanisms stress's impact on immunity!

I will never get over this fic. This one took root in a way few other stories can. This one is in my DNA now. Kraiva, you outdid yourself.

A black and white illustrated poster with the words “Soft As A Daisy” “written by Kraiva” “illustrated by AK Trash Panda Fin/Lastwheeze” “Malevolent Big Bang 2025” below 9 panels depicting various scenes from the fic. Across the middle 4 clawed fingers tear through the poster to reveal the eyes and smile of a malevolent face shrouded in red.

A stained glass image of half-god, half human John kneeling at Oscar's feet, head resting in his lap, clawed hand over Oscar's. Oscar is a white man with chin length brown hair wearing a long black cassock, and a cross around his neck. He's sitting on an ornate brown pew. John has a halo of yellow, purple, and green. He's wearing shades of gold and brown. His skin is a deep gold, and his hair is dark brown/black. There is text in Latin in the arc over their heads. It reads: Ignocentia (Oscar's side) Confiteor(John's side) (forgiveness and confession in Latin) The arc also contains stylized white tulips, which symbolize forgiveness. The prevailing colors in the piece are yellow, green, red, blue, and some purple.

[ART ID: A digital drawing. In a panel at the top, against a cracked and dirty brick wall, is a blond woman with four green horns and pointed ears. She is hunched over, looking towards the viewer with one goat-like eye visible. Blood drips down her face and neck. Her green dress is splattered with blood. Below, in harsh yellow shading John Doe takes a monstrous yellow cloaked form, Arthur clutched in a black tendril. This John has a canid-like appearance, his pallid mask is wolf like with two horns, his body is black and fluffy, in the center of his chest is a blue oval gem. He reaches forward, placing one clawed hand-paw in front of himself and Arthur. Arthur is hanging in John's grip, looking distressed, disheveled, and bloody. They are framed by messy brickwork walls tinted green and cracking under power. /END ID]

I'm so excited to share this story soon!! I've had an absolute blast traumatizing @barkotyk.bsky.social while working on this collaboration! 😂🤣😂

Hope y'all enjoy this little snippet and the full story once posting starts! 🩷💚💜

Text reads: There came a point in Kaoru’s life when he realized that the AI he’d created was now smarter than him, and that had been a… humbling experience. Also a bit terrifying because, for all his pride in his creation, he’d never expected Carla to figure out Time Travel. It should have been a moot point. It would have been a moot point. Kaoru could easily blame Kojiro on why it wasn’t. The green-haired oaf had been the driving force behind many of Kaoru’s stupidest ideas ever since they were children. It was also partially Adam’s fault, which had been true of most of Kaoru’s horrible life decisions for the duration of his teenage years. Those two factors together made it completely justifiable, in Kaoru’s opinion, to have decided on the worst idea ever: To build a Time Machine.

Screenshot of ao3 page. Reads as: title: for I've been a temptress too long author: soupluvssalad Summary: “Fuck…” Kojiro mutters under his breath whenever he sees how wide Kaoru’s pupils are. His throat bobs under his mask and Kojiro can only imagine how his lips must look right now. He pictures them parted and slick with spit, maybe with pinpricks of blood from biting back his noises. A pulse of heat shoots through him as he keeps his eyes locked with Kaoru’s and pulls again. Not enough to move this time, but enough to tug at his scalp in the way that Kojiro knows he likes. “Mmh,” Kaoru whimpers quietly and his lashes flutter closed for a moment. When they reopen, his pupils are blown so much that barely any gold is left to see. Kojiro’s free hand finds Kaoru’s waist and holds him like that; head tilted back, hair pulled and wrapped around his palm, pupils blown out… After a close race, Kojiro is determined to tease Kaoru until he breaks. He should have expected Kaoru to turn it into a competition.

[ID: A comic-like digital page, set within an aquarium tunnel, depicting John and Oscar - John is a taller man with brown skin, long curly hair, a white shirt and slacks, and Oscar is a shorter man with darker skin, missing his left arm, short curly hair, a beard, wearing a cassock and glasses with a gold chain. The first panel depicts John touching a pane of glass and blood seeping out into the water beyond it, almost like an anemone, red fading into the blue water. The second panel depicts Oscar blushing as he washes the fish tank window in front of him and looks over his shoulder, with a shark curling around the comic frame in the background. The third panel depicts Oscar suddenly startling and squeezing the rag as John in the foreground looks sad and forlorn, the pupils of his eyes slightly glowing. The last panel depicts Oscar's point of view as John, with his back to the viewer, still pokes at the glass in the first panel but the shadow of a shark has passed over him revealing a cloak of tentacles following the pattern of light diffused through water. In the background numerous other fish are shadowed - another shark, tuna, a manta ray, a grouper, a school of fish - and seaweed rises up from the presumed bottom of tank almost like John's tentacle cloak. The blood from the first panel still seeps out into the tank from where he pokes the glass. /end ID] [ID: Digital lineart and color closeup of John touching a pane of glass and blood seeping out into the water beyond it, almost like an anemone, red fading into the blue water. /end ID] [ID: Digital comic closeup of John and Oscar - the first panel depicts Oscar blushing as he washes the fish tank window in front of him and looks over his shoulder.
