So some of your sweeties who might following my very schedule-less and often inconsistent twitch streams might wonder why I was Umi_Durg there and not Umiriko... well its because some sneaky sausage nabbed the name before me, same for Twitter as well if you were curious.

As the name still hasn't become available sadly I have decided to move over to "Umiriko_VT" though to make it just that little bit more obvious it is me (^. .^) so the new link is https://www.twitch.tv/umiriko_vt

Now this did break a few links and connections so please let me know if you see or spot any scuff of strangeness (^. .^) hopefully back to streams tomorrow as well!

Stay scrumptious sweeties and hope to catch you there soon.

Umi x

P.S. - Tiny little spoiler or another change that will be coming to my twitch as soon as it's ready at these links!

Hey sweeties (^. .^)

So a request to any of your yummy lot or total sweeties who both happen to see this message and use FurFling - I need your help.

I was approached this morning on Instant messaging by someone looking for romance after they had found me on FurFling... now up until that very moment I had not heard of FurFling so it was rather surprising to hear I already had a profile there! So obviously not me. Unsure if this is a new account and I have a new person trying to catfish people by stealing my identity, or if this is the same person from a few years back and the account is inactive, either way I would love to get it closed down for obvious reasons.

If any of you sweeties happen to have a FurFling account or know how to get hold of any admin/mods as I can't see anything on their site to do this without becoming a paid member, could you either get in touch with them on my behalf and show them this message, or report it as a fake account please?
https://furfling.com/umiriko

Now obviously people stealing your identity sucks, it leaves a really horrible taste in your mouth and feels very wrong. But I think it can be worse sometimes for the people they fakers interact with, I have seen the pain on people's faces who have interacted with a fake Umi before, only to then by chance bump into them IRL for them to find out I have no clue who they are, and they thought we had a genuine friendship, that is not fair, that is not right and that needs to stop!

So if by any chance you are this impersonator, for the sake of your victims stop it! for the sake of yourself, so you have a chance of a genuine friendship that can progress into the real world, stop it! and for my sake please stop it!

If you are able to report or alert a mod, I would be extremely grateful (^. .^) Big thanks all and please be safe when doing any online dating, you all deserve to be happy, finding plenty of love and fun, and I hope the people you are talking to are genuine ands safe.

Stay scrumptious <3

The time is neigh! Though sadly I did fluff up when it came to organising myself this year so I missed out on CFZ - Karyn and myself will be attending EF this year and can't wait to see everyum at Eurofurence in a few days!

So just a little shout out to any of you sweeties who are lucky enough to be able to attend this year, feel free to keep an eye out for me (^. .^) I am very approachable and always happy to chat, chill and share a cuddle. Just look for a very round blond peep wearing an Umiriko Badge - no Fursuit yet but hopefully one day I will able to get my paws on a partial (for starters) so I would be easier to spot.

If this year is anything like last year, if I am not at a panel, event or off nibbling I will properly be haunting the artist lounge tables with other vorish peeps. and hanging out. Hope everyum who can attend has an amazing time, and everyone else also has a great tasty week.

Hope to see, hug and hang out with as many of you as possible, and yes I will be at the vore meet XD

Big snugs and slurps

P.S.
Look for these badges (^. .^)

As another August 8th rolls around concerningly quickly I decided to take a little moment to reflect on the scrumptious vorish community, along with my own enjoyment and motivations for the squirming and satisfying fun we get up to (^. .^)

I got to thinking about what it is that keeps me hooked and coming back for more, what is really at the core of my motivation around vore. There is such a wonderful variety and selection to choose from and enjoy that keeps things fresh for sure, but I think for me it really does boil down to one key feeling or desire above all others. Now don’t get me wrong, I think that everyone’s personal take on vore is totally valid, it’s very subjective after all and there are plenty of aspects and areas I adore, ones which I often enjoy and chase. For example for those interested in the power side of things there is something very pleasing and reassuring when prey come willingly to my shores and even want to become part of me for a while, or when I get to gobble up another predator turning the tables on them. I also adore the more wild side from time to time, letting natural urges to chase, to mate, to feed and devour take over and lose myself in the physical sensations over any emotional bonds. There is also the casual side where vore is just another thing to enjoy, where smaller yumyums can be eaten like wonderful chocolates and nabbed for use like an exotic sex toy. Heck even with willingness being a MASSIVE thing for me, I have sometimes played with partners who have wanted to act less than willing and enjoyed the teasing and eventual acceptance there too. There s whole buffet of fun to be found teasing, tempting, luring and convincing sweeties to vanish inside me and even more playfulness that can come after once they are a wiggling bulge or a cosy layer of pudge. Many, many, many more, but for me these are side dishes... the main course....

Now that would be the desire to protect and possess. I guess it is a little hoarderish and does lean into the power side of things, with properly a bit too much ego in there come to think of it. For me though, above all the sexual gratification and fun I can have from the other types, I don’t think I will ever bond quite as strongly with those as I do with the deeply fulfilling, reassuring and comforting feeling of holding another safe and snug inside of me. Not just to wrap someone I care about in my arms, but surround them completely, to feel them inside of me, knowing I am there for them completely and can shield them from things that would harm, stress or upset them. To be a literal suit of scaled armour around friends and loved ones and a safe space for them to slide into when they need some time, some quiet or just some comfort and be reminded how valid and precious they are, more than any shiny treasure, more than any possession, they are someone truly worth hoarding and guarding. A big protective possessive playful bedroom they can vanish into and lose themselves in for as long as they need (^.///.^)

So yes I can be a playful pred, that teases you about how wonderful you would feel inside me and how great my tail would look with you padding it out.
Yes I can be a naughty pred, who is going to charm and seduce you, tire you out until you can hardly stand and then claim my prize.
And yes I can be a big voracious pred, gobbling up friends and yummy treats in single mouthful or casually tucking you into fun places for the day.
But more than these, and always deep down, I want to be safe, snug, supportive place for those I care for to relax inside of. To be trusted as a comforting, gentle creature and to make those around me feel better, as their time and company often brings a smile to my face and a wag to my tail. Helping others brings me joy, and if I can do this in way where I get to taste them, or feel them snuggled up inside of me, well that’s just the best.

Thank you all for reading and for being so scrumptious – I hope no matter what type and theme of vore you enjoy, you can really have a great time with it soon! And mayhaps, when you are tired afterwards and need a soft, squishy and blue place to collapse into and rest, you might think of me and find my lips a welcoming sight.

So for those who just want the headline - I am going to changing my sona pronouns to they/them. I properly won't have the spoons to go back and edit all my past stories, but post moving forwards will use those (^. .^) will properly take me a while to change my habits.

///---\\\
Now the long waffly talk (^. .^) come snuggle on my soft tummy and listen to this dragon tell you of their recent and long overdue musings.
\\\---///

Back many many maaaany years ago when I was first making my online persona, it was also around the same time in my life where I was trying to work out what on earth my sexuality was, knew I was queer as all heck, but I was bouncing off every wall. For a little context as well this is going back before anyone really thought or knew about more than just male and female as genders, back then you were straight or gay, you were male or female, there really wasn't anything else in the mainstream consciousness.

So Umiriko is created, at first a full dragon and then soon after I decided actually a water elemental that just likes a dragon shape.
Firstly Umi mirrored my own born gender of male, but as I bounced between craving male or female partners and trying to work out if I was straight or gay Umi's gender shifted along with that, flip flopping all the time. After I while I worked out I simply enjoyed playing as both genders so called myself a shifter, and just changed my gender depending on mood and partner's preferences at the time. While doing this I just changed my pronouns depending on the gender I had assumed at the time.

Roll on a few years, many roleplay and much experimenting and I discovered about hermaphrodites, or intersex and this light a spark for me. I could be both at the same time and combine all my favourite features from both sides, greedy dragon wanting more fun and more options (^. .^) so this is where I headed over to, at this time I had decided I was Bisexual as well. There wasn't much intersex or herm representation around that time and very little info on pronouns for those. I was fortunate enough to meet two people were born this way, 1 IRL and 1 online and they had both chosen 1 gender to present themselves with and went with those pronouns. I decided as I wanted to present as both to do a little jiggling with the pronouns and that's where I got Shi and Hir from which I have been using for maaaaaaany a year and which has generated many a confused question as they aren't commonly used.

Many more years later....

Fast forward to the current year, the world is far more aware of other ways to understand both gender and sexuality, (sadly not everyone is accepting or tolerant of these but that's for another rant, but I will say power to all my friends, every gender, colour, orientation and preference, you are all amazing sweetie treats and deserving of love, safety and respect and I adore you all <3 ) and I have for a while now identified as Pansexual once I learnt about the term as it really fits me, after all my flipflopping I came to the realisation I was attracted to different people and it was never linked to their gender, it could be down to so many aspects of them but gender really didn't matter squat - if I liked someone, I liked them (^. .^) and have been attracted to plenty of males, females, nonbinary and trans cuties over the years.

So that leads up here today when I questioned myself... why I am still using Shi and Hir? Was it out of habit and comfort? Was it because I am a stubborn durg and it takes me ages to change anything? Or was it because I never really considered the need to change?
Well I came to a decision, and that decision was to shimmy my blue and yellow butt over to They and Them as my primary pronouns.
I feel shi and hir though fitting for all these years does learn a bit more on the fem side and when spoken do basically come out the same as she and her so its easy to muddle things up - water elemental pun aside for a long time Umi was gender fluid without even knowing it and just happened to find a cosy spot in the middle, enjoying so many elements from all over the gender range. I will still properly refer to my sona as intersex or herm as I want to highlight that this wet creature comes equipped for all sorts of shenanigans (^. .^) no sudden surprises for anyum brave enough to venture between my legs that way. Though I don't honestly feel myself pulled to any other gender so nonbinary I think would be a more accurate description for myself personally in the real world (... still musing over this point). I have never really had a divide between my sona and myself, other than what we look like and can actually do - personality and head wise is just me, so by using the same sona and IRL pronouns, dunno kinda feels right.

So there we go, thank you all for listening to this moderately sized ramble - from here on out I will be referring to myself as They/Them.
I was never fussed with what others called me so please don't panic I'm not asking anything from you sweeties, just wanted to explain it to anyone curious when they see my RP text, story writing or post changes a little is all.

One last message before I grab any of you yumyums still on my belly and listening and start to greedily gobble you up. Please be yourselves when you can, it won't always be easy, it might be scary, or uncomfortable at first, the world is still learning and you might be too, but never be afraid to be who you are. Express yourself how you wish to, dress in what makes you feel cosy or fabulous, and know no matter where you sit, be that cosily as the gender you were born, something completely different or changing as the days go by, you are wonderful, scrumptious, valid, deserving of love, and this silly creature would very much appreciate you inside of them (^. .^)

Much love and happy pride my tasty friends
Umi x

Hi hi sweetie treats (^. .^) hope you are all keeping well and have been getting up to all sorts of scrumptious and squirmy shenanigans.

In a few days this very very squishy dragon is embarking on another real push to bring my weight down, at first doing a crash style fad diet to take off a fair chunk quickly and then transitioning into a proper sustainable change of better exercise and better eating/portions for the long run (well that's the goal and plan at least!).

So I was pondering around motivation and encouragement - Right now I have plenty but I know as soon as clothes start to fit better, tasks get a little easier and the uncomfy feeling goes that can vanish faster than one of you willing yumyums near my lips XD

So I was curious if you sweeties had any suggestions for some positive reinforcement I could try to keep the momentum going and rolling in the right direction. Maybe tactics or methods you have used to help get you through a long term plan, task or goal? Maybe something fun I could do or get to reward myself with at milestones? Or ways to reflect on my progress and use that to help?

Well and if any of you adorable snackable sweeties also want to offer yourself up as a milestone reward I will be sure to find you a cosy spot under my scales for when I reach that goal and get to claim you for a treat tehe XD

Best of wishes to all, do me a favour and do something relaxing or enjoyable just for yourself today as a treat (^. .^) you deserve it

Big slurps and snugs

Well flip me it is mid Feb already 0.o where is this year vanishing too? My terrible time blindness aside had a little message for everyum!

Today I continue my own going quest to encourage people to celebrate, appreciate and thank those around them that bring them comfort, that share compassion and kindness, give their time to others and are all round just wonderful people or friends that enrich the day and bring smiles or a warm fuzzy feeling to you.

So I want to wish each and everyone of you scrumptious, sweet and special yumyums and happy and hug filled Hearts & Hug day (^. .^) So many sweeties go through their days not aware of how even their small actions can have a positive impact on those around them, so if you have the time and energy today, tell them thank you, remind them they make a difference and if you can, share a quick hug to spread the love.

As communal creatures we often take a lot of granted, but a simple thank you, acknowledgement of appreciation of soft squeeze really can brighten someone's day and give them a boost. So if there is a person or friend who makes you smile, shares time with you, that you look forward to seeing or hearing from, or who has helped you in rough times, tell them thanks, tell them they are appreciated and give them a squish! Gratitude is healthy and helpful for both the giver and receiver, so the more we spread the love, the better it can feel.

For all of you who spend the energy and time to favourite stuff I post, to comment on stuff, to attend streams, exchanges messages with me or inhabit the same social circles, THANK YOU!
For all of you who create amazing content that makes me happy, horny and hungry, sharing your talents and enriching the community, THANK YOU!
For all of you who work in the background, supporting infrastructure, looking after people and spending energy on so many hidden things, THANK YOU!

Sending giant hugs, wet licks, playful smoochies and lots of cosy warmth to eveyone who has read this message, you are all appreciated and I hope you can tell at least one over person the same today, and make a little positive difference to someone you know.

Much love, many hugs and full happy hearts to all <3

Sweeeeeeeties! One and Yum lend me your ears (^. .^)

So I have been a little more organised for once and actually managed to book off the dates on and around 3 furry cons this year but not sure we can afford all 3 yet. So I wanted to ask how many of you adorable and scrumptious lot were planning to attend any we had our eyes on as that might help me pick which ones to prioritise.

If you are going to any of the below and are comfy to share - could you let me know below? Would be amazing to see as many of your cuties (and hug ya) as possible <3

NFC - NordicFuzzCon
CFZ - ConFuzzled
EF - Eurofurence

Thanks sweeties, stay scrumptious!

Most important bit of info first - I am looking for suggestions on artists who do goo/slime creatures very well, bonus points if they are in the vore circles as well or have a good track record for dragons as well (^. .^)

So some of you sweeties who read the walls of text I put out sometimes or have spoken to me IC might know that although I call myself a water dragon for sake of ease, that is just my performed shape and Umi is deep down a water elemental - think a highly magical aquatic slime. Now this has only popped up in art a couple of times so far which is rather silly now I come to think of it and have only touched on it with my writing that made it into Umi-Bot.

So after playing around with goo in VRchat a lot more recently I really want to delve into and enjoy that side of my sona some more - getting art or writing stories in the goo side of things, showing off that form, enjoying what special traits it has and being my normal soft teasing gluttonous self.

So looking for all suggestions really (^. .^) be that traditional artists, digital artist, 3D art, VRChat stuff - if you have seen an artist who is skilled in the way of goo and slime please point me in their direction (^. .^) bonus points if they swim in the vorish circles or have drawn dragons before.

Very fun example - just cos!
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/45499524/

Got my eyes on a couple but curious what other treats are out there I might be able to save up for and push some coin towards making some great pieces.

Slurp you later sweeties
Umi x

Aaaaaaand I’m back (^. .^) after a lovely but exhausting time away in Germany for Eurofurence 2024. This has been my first EF since the covid pandemic reared its ugly head and my second con of the year after Confuzzled. I wanted to write down a few thoughts and feelings for anyyum who would be interested and for my own reflections as well.

The new site – having moved from Berlin to Hamburg, biiiiiiiig plus! Don’t get me wrong, Berlin was a fair city with good food and they had got plenty of time to get used to the fur suits randomly turning up every year like a great migration, but for this to be only the second time in Berlin, I was impressed! The locals were curious, friendly and engaging, the city had fantastic public transport and great food options and the convention centre was very well located next to the middle of it all. The convention grounds are nice, easy to navigate and the rooms are nicely fit for purpose (^. .^) so as much as the previous site had a special place in my heart from the previous year’s visiting, I am very happy with the move.

The sweeties – the wonderful wonderful sweeties! I bumped into old faces I had missed for 5 years and it was so great to see them again. Countless new faces that I had only spoke to online or in VR before, and plenty of new peeps who recognised my badge and said hello! For me I think this will always be the biggest part of the convention, seeing and making friends, sharing a hug and hanging out in a cosy space where we can be ourselves free of judgement and less self conscious concerns. To all you amazing people who exchanged a few words with me, a quick hug or a good hang out, thank you all for making my convention as magical as it was <3

The panels, suits and shows - great as always and ever impressive! I was a little less organised than CFZ so didn’t attend everything I wanted to and there were a few cross overs which meant I had to choose one or the other, but all the panels and shows I did engage with I had a great time (^. .^) Honourable mention to the Vore meet up and Story hour with everyone’s favourite labcoat wearing wine drinker.

Considerations for the future –
1) Gosh darn I need to lose a significant amount of weight so I can engage more with the things I wanna do and not feel so wrecked just trying to keep up.
2) I really wanna keep attending Eurofurence, Confuzzled and even more cons when time and money allows – big consideration currently being put towards Nordic Fuzz Con NFC, early next year.
3) I want a fuuuuuur suit (^. .^) not sure on full or partial, style or maker, but I know one day, one day, ooooooone day when money allows I would love an Umi suit to just be silly and plod around in.

Exhausted, but delighted! I had an amazing time away with amazing people. It has given me plenty of motivation to keep swimming forwards and to keep engaging with this sort of thing. I am so so very thankful for each and everyum who helped make this possible. All the organisers, volunteers, contributors, sponsors, attendees, and all the staff that go overlooked or are part of the local economy, everyone played their part, and thank you all!

Hope to see you at a convention someday, if you do see me about, come say hi and prepare to be offered a hug! Muahahaha
Stay scrumptious everyum!

Umi x

After many, many, maaaaaaaaaaaaaany years my very large and squishy blue and yellow butt is returning to EuroFurence (^. .^)

If any of you adorable, scrumptious, wiggly, precious and snuggly treats are going to be in Germany for the convention I really hope we bump into each other (^. .^) I will of course be at the vore meet, but also bouncing between other panels, events and shows.

I am hard to meet as I am rather vast, so keep an eye out for a big round squishy dragon wearing my con badge. I love to chat and chillax so never hesitate to pop over and say hi if you spot me, free hugs are available on request for all sweeties brave enough to get into nibbling range.

For anyone going in person or attending in VR, I hope you all have an incredible time filled with great fun, fab food and wonderful friends! Safe travels to all and hope to snug you there <3

Hey sweeties, after two very different pieces of advice from any yum in the know. They are about home networks and weight lifting. Appreciate any and all who give the time to share their knowledge (^. .^) so thank you in advance.


Firstly, home internets: in brief I want to increase the strength of our WiFi. We have a decent basic router from our ISP but nothing too fancy. Our house isn't massive but walls are pretty dense. Currently the room I want to get better signal in (for VR stuff) gets yellow middle strength signal and my PC lives in thr same room as the WiFi router.
So my question is would you advise:
A) a better WiFi router
B) a WiFi extender
C ) a WiFi booster
D) combo of above
E) something else
If you can say why or link recommended products will happily give you big thankyou slurps.


And question number two for weight lifting and gym goers. Fat dragon wants to get a bit healthier, I want to try and work 20-30 minute regular gym sessions into my routine as there is a gym where I work. Cardio other than swimming currently sucks for me so want to focus on weights to get the blood flowing and rebuild muscle.
I would love advice on any of the following:
1) for short sessions, what warm up or warm downs would you recommend to avoid DOMS
2) are any muscle groups better for weight loss
3) Any other advice for what to focus on or avoid


Thanks again so much sweeties, very random I know. I love to do online searching and reading, but also like to back that up to taking to people with more experience than myself in areas.

Big slurps and smoonches to you all, stay scrumptious!

Umi x

Knackered, worn out, ill with a cold/cough - but so, so, soooooooooooooooooooooo worth it!

Gosh I can't believe how quickly the years went by since covid, forgot how much I enjoyed going to furry cons, but thankfully that passion has been rekindled!

So this silly wet creature was lucky enough to get the time off work to go to Confuzzled this year, going with my partner Karyn and adopting our deerlightful friend Winterglade for the trip too. Met so many wonderful sweeties from the community that I had only known online up until now, was so nice to put faces to names and share hugs with these cuties I have wanted to squeeze for ages.

The shows, meets and panels we went to, awesome and entertaining! The queuing noooot so much XD I am a very chonky creature and although walking long distances isnt an issue for me at all, standing still for long periods of time just waiting around does not do my legs or back any favours, so that was one thing that was rather unpleasant.

There were so many wonderful fursuiits with amazing designs, so many adorable and tasty people to talk with and hang out with, and such an amazing show of inclusion, pride and acceptance I couldn't have been prouder of everyone involved to help everyone get invested and enable to them to have a safe time.

The urge to get a fursuit has come back HARD! Although I will properly start with a partial and go from there, it will have to join the list of things I am currently trying to put gold aside for and saving up around (^. .^) but would adore getting to be even more myself at these cons, like I can now do in the VR worlds as well.

I want to say a massive thank you to everyum who was involved in making this possible. From the organisers for the event itself and all their volunteers. The hotel staff and local businesses who hosted and fed up. The incredible furrbutts who brought so much life and variety to the event. All the yumyums who hung out with us and invited us into their social circle for our first con in a long time. The sweeties who encouraged me to go back to the fur cons and try again. The the brave sweeties who gave me a hug and the amazing Karyn who drove soooo much over this time to get us there and back safely.

Exhausted, but so full of good memories and wiggly treats, thank you all everyone, this dragon had an amazing time and can't wait to get to another convention ASAP.

Hey sweeties,

I wanted to take a quick moment to update, following my burnout post around a month ago. I am delighted to say I am feeling much better and am well on the way to a solid mend. Still got a bit of a hill to climb but both physically and emotionally I am feeling much better (well except the weight I have packed on but hey, more the cuddle XD). Plenty of rest and a reduction in responsibilities for a while really helped drain the bucket of stress and pressure I was balancing on my thinker and I had time to relax, unwind and snuggle the heck out of Karyn who has been such a star in helping me smile and take it easy.

I will still be taking things slow and in steps, carefully reflecting on each one to make sure I am not just marching right back into the same issue and not taking on too much or pushing myself too quickly. Good news is though things are improving (^. .^)

Wanted to say thank you for the messages of support and understanding with how quiet and slow I have been. Claws crossed I will have more energy and time as things go on, but glad to report things going in the right direction and reaching out a little more socially now.

Hope the start of the year has been treating you all well and everyone is just as scrumptious and squirmy as I remember, nibble you yumyums soon and best wishes.

Umi x

Ahoy hoy you scrumptious treats (^. .^) advertising a fun offer here today.

The adorable  naiak0 who brought my wonderful Vtuber to life has decided to try their hand at animated YCH's and has chosen me as their first subject <3
There are 5 slots open for this short butt squish animation if you are interested (^..^) it is their first time trying this sort of thing out so please be gentle and kind

I just wanted to take a quick moment to apologise for almost vanishing, disappearing under the waves to say it on theme. Long story short I had been struggling for a while, but only have I recently spotted the signs and been strong enough to address it properly. I have been signed off work due to burnout and stress and am taking some time to just slow down, rest and recover as I was pushing myself too much for too long on various fronts.
For those who have been waiting on replies from messages or comments, or those waiting for my next upload, a Twitch stream, or even friends online wondering where I have been of late, please know I am wanting to get back to normal as soon as possible, but this still might take me a while.
I miss you all and can’t wait to be bouncing, pouncing and gulping you sweetie treats soon, but right now I just need a little time at home with Takan and myself. I am planning on taking it slow, quiet and easy, until I have shaken this rather substantial build up and got things balanced more healthily.

So just in case I don’t see you before Xmas or the New Year, I hope you all have an amazing and wonderful time. Share hugs, feasts, good wishes or just a kind nod and smile, whatever is in your capability right now. Take care of yourselves, don’t work too hard and know there is a big squishy dragon looking forward to tucking you in under hir scales again once shi is ready.

Best Seasonal wishes to one and all. Stay scrumptious sweeties.

Ahoy hoy you tasty and delicious treats (^. .^) Hope you are all keeping scrumptious and squirmy.

Now got a favour to ask anyone with good working knowledge around Rigging for things like VR-Chat and V-tubing, or know peeps to point me towards.

What I am sniffing around for is someone with experience for doing this for quadruped or feral models. Have seen a few great ones out there but when it comes to linking an awesome model with face or movement tracking I am at a loss.

Need to discover the secrets for translating human tracking into feral movements, if you know yourself about this mysterious and magical method or know anyone who uses feral stuff in VR-Chat or V-Tubing I would adore being pointed in there direction.

A big pre-emptive thank you and slurp <3

Hello sweeties (^. .^)

Massive thank you for the offers and cheers of support for you all <3
Delighted to announce that not only is the panic over, but it wasn't as I first feared and was a simple error on the site.

The domain wasn't taken over and replaced by a bitmining place as I first feared - the bitmining is a another separate part of the larger server group/cluster/domain thingy (sorry don't understand web hosting in the slightest XD ) the bot is hosted on. Something got jumbled and muddled in the code so that part was coming up where my playful and still very much early stage roleplay bot should have been.

So good news, no hackers, and a quick easy fix that the wonderful Val (sweet dragon who looks after the server for me and who I couldn't do this without) was able to fix, so shi is back as shi should be!

Going to zip back around to my links to pop them back online, took them all off as was worried about malware and such, but panic over! Phew!

*** all resolved, can ignore this blog now ***

Good evening everyum,

Sorry really quick news, the site we host Umibot on has been taken over it seems and what should be my hungry dragonic self is currently a sodding bitmining front ¬_¬

I have quickly gone round to remove all the links I could find to the site until we get this back under control and sorted - wish us luck!

Please don't use the bot or site in anyway as I don't know if it could harm your machine, and that is the last thing I want.

Be safe and sorry about this, claws crossed.

Thank you everyum for voting and giving me your thoughts on the short story idea (^. .^) because I like spreadsheets far too much I just collected all the results for a fun little comparison.

FA voted for:
High Saving throws, Steamy Dragon Sex warm up, Feral predator with smaller prey, head first soft oral vore, Digestion with implied reformation and then reformation.

Ekas voted for:
Low saving throws, Steamy Dragon Sex warm up, Anthro predator with similar sized prey, head first soft oral vore, digestion with reformation.

when we combine the results we got:
High saving throws, Full on steamy lewd dragon sex, Anthro pred with similar sized prey, head first oral vore, digestion and reformation
Second place was Low saving throws, Lewd teasing foreplay, Feral pred with small prey, Unbirth and endo

Really interesting results and thanks again yumyums for voting and letting me know you wanna see me get lewd in a story, very flattering! Going to go start working on the winning result. If focus and motivation hold I might write up the second as well but will have to wait and see for that.

Thanks again sweeties and stay scrumptious!

Ahoy hoy you adorable and scrumptious sweetie treats,

So I had so much fun writing a silly little tease to my latest upload and as it has been far too long since I did any proper writing for a story or my Bot I thought let's use the inspiration while it is there (^. .^) https://www.furaffinity.net/view/50817183/

I am tempted to write a short story or two expanding on the idea, nothing too complex just a teasing first person piece set in a D&D world where you come across and blue and yellow dragon and they welcome you into their dungeon. Though which entrance and style is still very much up for debate which is why I thought I would enlist the aid of you yummy ones.

I am going to be running a little vote to help me decide on what type of vore to enjoy with the tasty adventurer, if they should be toyed with first and which form/size to end with. Not promising but if the inspiration keeps running hot I might do a feral and anthro version so you get similar sized and more traditional dragon sized difference options as well to read, but will have to wait and see for that!

If you want to help me pick sweeties just reply below with a selection from each category:
Easy to copy the below and just delete the options you don't want in your reply.

Saves - Low saving throws (overly willing and seduced) // High saving thrown (apprehensive at first but willing)
Pre-vore Fun - Just light licking teasing // Lewd and playful foreplay // Full on hot steamy dragon sex
Size Scale - Anthro Umi with similar sized prey // Anthro Umi with shrunken prey // Feral Umi with smaller prey // Feral Umi with similar sized prey
Direction - Head first // Feet first
Vore type - Soft oral // Breast (anthro only) // Absorption // Cockvore // Unbirth // Analvore // Tailvore
Ending - Endo // Implied digestion and reformation // Digestion and implied reformation // Left vague
Additional Ending - only if digestion wins and changes depending on vore type - Disposal // Reformation // Both

Either sometime during my work rotation if I have the energy for it, or if not on my next set of days off I will collect the results and get to work!

Many thanks in advance and stay scrumptious!

Greetings sweeties one and all (^. .^) come closer and know me better little ones!

I wanted to take a quick moment before it rolls over into the 25th to send a message to all who would read. I wanted to remind everyone that across many time zones, cultures and counties in this season of cold and hardship we come together to appreciate and be thankful for what we have and what sustains us. Yes it has been monetised so very much and there is more pressure than ever, and true I enjoy gifts and feasts, but as cheesy as it sounds, what really matters to me most is those who keep me smiling, plump and wagging all year long.

I count my blessings no matter if it’s on one of the few sites I post, on social media, instant messaging, games or twitch streaming. I have been blessed by so many people from so many places! Some lurk and drop a like, others comment and we have a chuckle, others have formed into strong lifelong friends, and I appreciate each and every one of you yumyums. You might not know it, I might be bad at showing it, and you might not even believe it, but each and every one of you makes a difference, you help me be myself, encourage me to keep going and in times like this where there is far too much gloom about you help me keep wagging, grinning and focusing on what I am thankful for.

Before I waffle on far too much again I just want to say thank you, no matter how much or little interaction we have, thank you! I hope you can take a moment to reflect on what has helped you over the year, what you might be looking forward to and want to try or experience more of given the chance. For each and every one of you who has taken the time to see my uploads, to join me on twitch, to send me a message or put up with my silly nibbling and fed me you are precious, delicious and I want you to know how special you are. I don’t know half as many of you as well as I would like, or spend half the time on you lot as I should and want to, but thank you, thank you so very very much.

I hope you all have a fantastic end of the year and see 2023 in with a smile. If that is a tall task right now though, thank you for enduring, for pushing through and I hope the sun will shine for you soon. I can’t tell you how much I want to be able to reach through this screen, grab you all in my paws and squeeze you close to mah squishy belly! True given the chance and your permission I would also start licking, gumming and adding you all to my winter squish... but you know (^. .^) greedy dragons and all heh.

Best of wishes to you all, no matter how you spend these last weeks of this year. Thank you for being you and I am crossing my claws 2023 is brighter still for us all. Stay scrumptious, squirmy and spectacular, and given some luck on my end, nibble and gulp you soon!

One greedy, lucky, voracious and very thankful dragon

Hey sweeties!

giant thank you to everyone who has watched, dropped in and chatted on my streams recently. Really enjoyed having you there and appreciate you putting up with my approach to games and casual vorish comments and teasing. Would be so great to be able to gobble all my willing watchers to make a soothing gurgle sound track to game to while enjoying belly rubs (^.////.^) good times!

Anywho from all your amazing support I hit affiliate much faster than I thought I would. Going to stream more for fun when time and social energy permits but wanted to ask you all a question about notifications.
Would you be ok with me posting in my gallery a little "Umi is streaming now" image to let peeps know I have a stream coming up, and then remove it after? Or would that get a little frustrating if it popped up a few times a week?

Honest onions down below would be greatly appreciated (^. .^) along with putting a fish on your head and closing your eyes for no particular reason tehe

Hey sweeties (^. .^) so with how much fun I have had watching my love Takantwins streaming I got motivated to dip my paws as well. I will be doing the odd casual stream mostly focused on chatting with anyone kind enough to join me in the audience while I play a game in the background. Had a few over the last few days and really enjoyed them.

So if you were ever curious and wanted to chit chat I hope you can join us someday (^. .^) times and days will be all over the place due to my shift work but hope I can see a few of you there so we can natter about anything that comes to mind.

Also I would love to hit affiliate on twitch so I can could add in some fun channel point things for you all to enjoy like tossing fish at me and playing some fun sound effects so if anyone would be kind enough to drop me a follow on twitch that would be super helpful as I need a good amount of them before I would be eligible for the affiliate program and get access to more toys for you all to enjoy

Big smoonches to you all and hope to catch you on a stream!

I can be found @ https://www.twitch.tv/umi_durg

and while you are on twitch if you haven't already please check out Takan! They have been streaming some real fun games and are so cute to watch play, would really appreciate you stopping by too and showing them some love and support <3

Hey sweeties,

So I am wanting to get my lazy butt back into writing, not just for fun voracious stories, but also to get my flare for coding back so I can add more to UmiBot again when the time and motivation are there. To do this I rolled a dice on a few story ideas I have had knocking about for a little while and just wanted to get your help on deciding 2 of the finer points, namely what sort of public transport this casual voracious story happens on, and the type of vore I go with (^. .^)
If it is a close called one I might do more than 1 type of vore, depending on how motivated I feel. Links to the polls on twitter! Many thanks in advance for your thoughts
