Such were my reflections as I commenced my journey; but as I proceeded, my spirits and hopes rose. I ardently desired the acquisitions of knowledge. I had often, when at home, thought it hard to remain during my youth cooped up in one place, and had loned to enter the world, and take my station among other human beings. Now my desires were complied with, and it would, indeed, have been folly to repent.

take-away book spreads

Saddle Gals, Book Licking
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOepQSpi2qk
So I'm having issues with adding the videos to the post again, but here's the link to a new video. It's another alphabetical book licking thing, but it's more focused on showing the act of licking, which is pretty effective I think. I've also been trying out things with lens filters so there are sort of interesting areas of focus which I think is good for the video. Also color is a new thing for these, I feel like it fits the softcore aesthetic that I'm looking at. I'm intending to upload this video to a porn website to further insert it into the context that I'm referencing.
