So I just found these very old pics while cleaning up today. Some of you may recognize these (well, I know at least a handful that will), and for others these'll be new.

My original account here was "TastyKatie", and I had a couple dozen pics and short comics up. Was doing some RPing as well. Then one day, I killed the account entirely. Every picture and blog deleted, RPs and PMs left hanging, the avatar changed to the somewhat morbid one it has now, and password changed blindly to lock myself out. I left it in this grim state, without an explanation:
https://aryion.com/g4/user/TastyKatie
Implying the character was permavored.

Now why would I do that? It's a long story, with two intersecting problems - my first major manic episode from porphyria, and a household disaster forcing me to move in a hurry. In the midst of this trouble, one "friend" discovered my vore drawings and I was mocked in ways I haven't been since elementary school. This person also had a big mouth, so it wasn't kept a secret. Problem was, I already wasn't satisfied with the art, and felt like the character and pictures had no direction. This event, however, made me hate the gallery so much I couldn't look at it for months.

I've gotten over it, and glad I did save a handful of the pics. Unfortunately I forgot the names of the people I was PMing with. If any of you come across me, you can say hello! And sorry if I left you wondering!

ANYHOO, this was my titular character, Tasty Katie. A 20-something, very willing prey girl who wears candy jewelry, dyes her hair with juice crystals, and happily puts herself in food play situations. You can kinda see how she was remade as Juniper (and ironically, I hadn't yet dyed my hair purple back then - guess I predicted it, cause it wasn't planned!).

Also I thought the mermaid sushi idea was kinda hot. Still do.

So these are the last remaining remnants of my first and unfortunately failed journey into vore art on this site. But a year after shutting the account down, and life settling down, I just had to get back into it. Vore has a weird draw that way, as I'm sure the rest of you know! And so Juniper Berry was born, and I promise I won't be pulling a Tasty Katie and suddenly disappearing again. This time has gone far better, and I'm keeping it up come hell or high water!

Thanks for taking a look!

Such a sexy and tasty looking prey-slut!!~~~~

Thanks - hah, I guess it's no surprise that the first prey character I put online was a massive gut-slut!

BloodPuma

Of course, after all artists' passions are always reflected in their work!!

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Yes, definitely. It gives a lot away in fact!

BloodPuma

Posted by BloodPuma 3 years ago Report

I do hope it doesn't give away too much!~~~

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

...a lot that I wouldn't give away in person, that's for sure!

BloodPuma

Oh really?~~~

JuniperBerry

Mmm, lot of people not into vore start jumping to conclusions awfully quick.

BloodPuma

Posted by BloodPuma 3 years ago Report

Well I guess that's true, though I've rarely talked about vore to those who aren't into it.....

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

It's been awkward with the five people I've told, save for one, but that was a psychologist. Everyone else jumped to conclusions rather quick

BloodPuma

Posted by BloodPuma 3 years ago Report

If it's not to personal, what kind of conclusions?

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Oh, like thinking I have a desire to cook and eat a person in real life, or that I am depressed and having fantasy suicides

BloodPuma

Posted by BloodPuma 3 years ago Report

The suicide fantasy I can get (with how much of a prey-slut you can be), but the cooking and eating of people would be more a pred thing.... But those kind of assumptions aren't that far off for what vore is... As long as it's not IRL.

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Well, a lot of people can't separate fantasy from reality. I couldn't even consider eating human meat, and am a far cry from depression. And not crazy enough to try and emulate vore realistically in real life!

BloodPuma

Posted by BloodPuma 3 years ago Report

Just like more into vore, but there are a few that would, and they give us all a bad name.... It's the same with furries.....

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Yeah, a few of the most extreme examples of a fetish gets into the public eye, they judge the whole group by it...

BloodPuma

Posted by BloodPuma 3 years ago Report

That's "Mass Media" for you. (or as I like to call it Fear Porn) They make money off of keeping people afraid of ______!.....

Though if it were possible to swallow someone whole and give them great pleasure as they digest, it would be quite tempting to do so~~~

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Mmm, yes I see it - fear is a powerful tool. It took me a while to realize this, I don't have a healthy sense of fear so I wondered why is was such a great motivator.

Definitely digestion would need to be painless, or prey unable to feel it. For me, the notion of being food for something, and trapped inside it, would be really enticing and hard to pass up!

And that's why you're such a good little gutslut!!!

Will Tasty Katie be ressurected by your snake goddess per chance? If not that is ok.

Still i reemember your previous account and did like your work. Im just sorry i never made the connection.

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

No, I don't think Katie will be making any sort of return. She's basically Juniper and Chicory mixed, and name is so close to Casey. Plus drawing her again would likely bring up unwanted memories. But she can have this little homage, framed like photos on a wall of someone deceased... It's fitting.

Hah, actually I purposely changed my style with TastyKatie, worried that someone might figure out who I am. I drew all five fingers & toes, different proportions, different eye style - it was tedious, and part of the reason I didn't enjoy that gallery as much. With this new one I said screw it and went with my usual style. So don't be sorry, the old stuff was meant to NOT look like my work anyway!

hello we had a rp at one point sorry about hearing what happened

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Yes, hello! I remember your name, but not so much the RP... I really virtually slept around with that account! XD I can't RP much these days though, unfortunately

Duskthewolfcub

Posted by Duskthewolfcub 3 years ago Report

that's ok I understand it was a babysitting job gone wrong or right in dusk's case but life is more important than fantasy

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Oh RIGHT! Yes, I think it was one I couldn't finish, started being unable to look at the screen a lot

I knew it !, your true name is Katie you faker ! >:3, take her boys (2 neko officers handcuff you and push you inside the police car) artist like u get me sick >:3 (just kidding, i love your art ;3)

JuniperBerry

Posted by JuniperBerry 3 years ago Report

Oh, mwa ha ha, but Katie was also a pseudonym, like Casey - my true name sounds nothing like them, actually! This site will likely never know it...

And thanks so much!

Posted by Thatangryorc 3 years ago Report

Oh my lord, I knew there was something about your art that seemed familiar the first time I saw it! I remember being really impressed with the Katie stuff and being sad that it seemingly vanished! Glad to know you felt confident enough to come back! <3

JuniperBerry

Hah, I did wonder if people would recognize my work again. But TastieKatie pictures were done in an experimental sort of style, while this gallery is my usual stuff. Coming back and having a much more open and honest persona here made a huge difference - Glad I came back too, I missed the place and this time has been even better
