Did y'all see that VegNews put out an apology and said they'll only use custom vegan photographs from now on? Huh.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't know enough to even answer your question, Steph. I did see a fairly intricate arms-tied-together-behind-the-back picture that I've now lost, but I'd have no idea if it qualifies as shibari or not.
Also, pictures of men tied up would be *highly* appreciated.
Fuck, I have so much to do today, and so little energy with which to do it. My head hurts so badly. No meds, playing the weekly chase. Last week I had to get a neurologist I didn't even know to refill them. The process is too broken to be called a process.

I wasn't sure if you wanted references for the kind of quick tie-'em-up ties you'd see in TV or movies when a bad guy is caught (or a good guy caught). I think I was thinking of your fanart.
That said, I can definitely give you links for non-fancy ties as well as shibari (which is also *quite* functional; just also pretty while being restrictive).
Also, pictures of men tied up would be *highly* appreciated.
Oh, I can definitely help you there. (Note: not pictures of Tim. I'm not sure I have any of him tied up, anyway. The only time I think to grab the camera is when a cat decides to interfere, because that is COMEDY GOLD.)

Yeah, that is not a process. That is just fucked up.
In local news, there were reports of a guy with a shotgun in a local mall, but it turned out to be an umbrella. It's raining out. Makes me wonder what the guy looked like....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah.
Maybe it's not a good idea for me to buy that umbrella with a samurai-sword handle.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Most of the Japanese rope tying I've seen has been women. Great knots, though.

I got connections, man.
No, you're right that most of it tends to be on women, partly because the ties work so well with boobies and whatnot. But, uh, I can find pictures of dudes tied up.
Failing that, I am willing to take one for the team (Team ita!) and tie up a fully-clothed Tim and take pictures. Because I'm a giver.
