Rapha – the good boy

A lot of people have been asking me recently how I’ve been doing. Actually, I’m doing pretty good. As a matter of fact, I’m experiencing a lot of joyful moments again… Of which moving in with @pup-saber​ is the best thing that has happened!

Although I start wondering about his intentions, after seeing what he did to Rapha … o /

Oh my dear, poor Rapha,

Whatever happened to you? With those cheeky, subby eyes. Whatever should I do with you? *grin*

Sometimes, just sometimes, roles change, and I get the opportunity to tease this delicious boy. And the wonderfully carefree and satisfied smile he shows me at the end make’s it double worth it!

After all, we’re all good boys who just want to have some fun. ^_^
*licks and kisses*

I’ve been wondering what to say about Pup Nobley, as we lost him about year ago. It feels very weird that it’s been a year, and his precense has definitely been missed. I’m really happy to hear that Nobley’s boyfriend, @the-kinky-bf is finding new joy and love in life, and new adventures in puphood 🙂 Nobley would have wanted it that way.

Hi everybody.

First I would like to thank everybody for their kind and loving messages. I’m sorry, I can’t reply to them all personally.
There have been rumors to what happened to our dearest friend and my love @pupnobley . @allbecauseoftheboys already explained a bit, but I’d like to share my story now, as part of my mourning.

So basically Nobley died of erotic auto-asphyxation. Solo breath play. 
I found him Wednesday last week, when I got home from work. These are images that won’t fade from my mind easily, but I’m glad nobody else (especially his family) witnessed, what I witnessed back then.

Due to these ‘suspicious’ circumstances, I had to talk to the police for a couple of hours, while CSI-like people investigated Nobley. It was so hard not to talk about what happened with his parents, friends, family for over three hours.

I was angry at him, at first. Thankfully my rage didn’t last long. He doesn’t deserve anger. He was a beaken of peace in the community, and I’d like to keep it that way.

Yes, I do have questions. Why? How? I don’t think anybody can give me answers. I’m seeing a counselor to deal with these questions. Hopefully that will give me rest.

Nobley was an ambassador of sane and safe play. I can’t tell you where this came from. I know his interest in breath play and it was mutual. I had my own insecurities about breath play, as it could result into what turned into my worst nightmare.

I won’t rant too long about the dangers of solo breath play, as everybody now knows what can happen. You might be the one having fun (I’ll try to keep in mind, that at least he was having fun), but you’re leaving a world in grieve.

Finally, I would like some misconceptions to be discarded:
– We both had interest in breath play, so solo play wasn’t necessary. It is NEVER necessary in any case.
– He thought it through. I mean, he had a build-in quick-release. I don’t know why he didn’t use it, I’m not sure if I want to know. This emphasizes there is NO SANE/SAFE SOLO BREATH PLAY.

I won’t be posting for a while, but I will be checking out my Tumblr every now and then. Please respect that.

R.I.P., my love <3

Nobley’s BF has updated us with more information. Everyone needs to know this lesson and everyone needs to heed it, spread it, and share it. Sex in the real world is not a porno, or a fantasy. Actions have real consequences that hurt real lives. No man is an island. Under the water we are all connected.

I’m getting a lot of questions from people about Pup Nobley. Those
closest to him are preparing for the funeral, so official information is
not going to be forthcoming for a while. So hopefully this helps some of you:

Here’s what we know:

  • Pup Nobley passed away in an accident on November 23rd.
  • The
    cause of death was from solo breathplay. It’s hard to believe, I know, but this
    is not the time to preach the risks of such play.
  • The funeral was on Wednesday, the 30th. It was a private service.
  • Some
    people have posted Nobley’s real name, but it’s been requested that
    when you talk about Nobley in a public way that you refer to him by his
    pup name. Also it’s pronounced “nob” as in “doorknob” not as in “noble”.
  • Nobley has a boyfriend and their five year anniversary was this year. The boyfriend’s real name is
    floating around too and they ask that you refrain from posting it in a
    public way.
  • Nobley’s bf is receiving support and care from Nobley’s family and close friends.
  • They’re from Europe, specifically, the Netherlands.
  • It is 100% confirmed that this sucks a lot.

If
any of you feel really lost and need to talk to someone, never hesitate
to reach out. Just because you never met Nobley in real life doesn’t
mean your grief is invalid. The hashtag #paws4nobley is making its way around twitter.
Also, the Kennel Klub in the UK will be having a moment of silence at their next meeting on December 3rd.

If
you have any personal mementos from interacting with Nobley, such as
songs, videos, pictures, drawings, audio recordings, or stories, you may
send them to pupsaber@gmail.com for archival. Put “Mementos” in the headline so Pup Saber can sort
them. We’re trying to not involve Nobley’s boyfriend in this process as
he has a lot going on, so please keep it off public platforms. 

Thank you.

Since I got news of the accident regarding Pup Nobley, I have been just scouring the internet for news, updates, anything. Most of me feels like this is a tremendous mistake, and I’m searching for just some sort of some revelation that it’s not true. It just feels so fundamentally wrong.

The sheer response to this incident is amazing. Puppixel’s post has over 700 notes. People who never even met Nobley, or just chatted with him, are commenting on just his positivity toward life; and his experiments in sexuality has helped people learn things about themselves and move their kink experiences in a new direction. I’ve seen pups on Twitter who have barely heard of him, but are mourning the loss of a pup in the community in general. It’s incredible, the length of the string that connects us all.
To most people in Nobley’s life, he was just a regular normal person going to school and living his life. It’s weird to realize most people in his day to day life probably have no idea about any of the ripples he’s caused. 

I’ve been part of the Tumblr community for three years, and this whole thing has completely changed how I view this platform now. I was talking to a Tumblr-friend some time ago, and we remarked about past bloggers who have de-activated and vanished. We have no idea what happened to them, or where they went, or if they’re alive, well, or happy. It’s just a pile of tiny mysteries. I have 7,000 followers, and I have wondered before if any of my readers died and I didn’t know it. We have no way to know if any of us die. But now I know, and that’s jarring. Pup Nobley’s Tumblr is going to be there for a longtime. And his twitter. And I see his photos everywhere. Everyone has a small piece of Nobley. I hope you all save these photos, these videos, because Nobley will live on in the hearts, minds, and harddrives of us all.

I’m going to go back to regular posting on Saturday, but it’ll probably be a while before I write pup posts again. Nobley used to message me out of the blue and tell me how much he liked the pup captions I wrote, which was so silly because he constantly inspired me to write them. He and @bookofbaitnate were some of the first people I talked to on Tumblr. It’s gonna be so hard knowing Nobley will never read my captions again, I can’t caption his pictures anymore, and I will never get those messages again.
I know all of my posts probably seems really selfish to some. I’m crying for some reason, and I’m even shocked at how hard this has hit me. I’m embarrassed about it now. I think I’ve made more posts about this than anyone else on Tumblr lol. I mean I never even met Nobley in person, considering I live in California and he lived in the Netherlands. I wish I did. I wish I could meet all of you and hug you all. You’re all awesome, and I love you all. We need to tell each-other these things in case we suddenly can’t anymore.

This just sucks.

This just sucks.

Also forgot to state that the adorable boy sleeping in my header is Nobley as well.

This feels like a bad dream 🙁 Europe is like eight hours ahead or something, so by the time I get up tomorrow I feel like there may be more updates and perhaps a way we can contribute to Nick or Nobley’s family. I’m not posting tomorrow. It’s inappropriate to be posting while everyone grieves – and I don’t feel like I could write anyway.

Everyone reach out to your friends and make sure we’re all doing OK. Our community is strong. There’s a #pawsforNobley hashtag on Twitter right now to bring awareness of his loss. You may also see the hashtag  #AlleHondeGgaanNarDeHemel (or Alle Honden Gaan Nar de Hemel) which is Dutch for ‘all dogs go to heaven’.

PS: If you are in London, some pups are having a get-together on December 5 ‘in honor of Nobley’.

Nobley… One of the kindest pups I never got the chance to meet in person. An ambassador for our community and a friend to all has passed, and may he rest in peace. Nobley was more than a kinkster to many. He was a beacon of advice, a voice when they had none, and a boy who could brighten anybody’s day with nothing but simple words. Our community has lost one of its most loyal and positive advocates, and an amazing person. The flag flies at half mast, but know that there are treats and toys waiting for you in puppy heaven.

Very, very sweet post. This picture sums him up so well <3.
