Who Am I ?
Allô, darlings ~
My name is Leia—a lascivious French scientist, ever so flirty, a touch spacey and admittedly, a tad eccentric—enchanté!
Dreams have always been my playground, where my mind flits off on naughty little escapades—wild, indecent romps that scoff at the dull humdrum of this world.
Entranced by fantasy and drunk on the wonder of each new discovery, I’ve poured my passions into a wonderful venture: the Knotty-Dreams Project. Knotty-Dreams is my heart’s work—tethering fantasy to flesh, experiences to grip and savor, for all of us who crave a little more, or are as hungry for fun as me!

How it all began
It all started when...
Determined to turn fantasies into reality, I built a machine to open a doorway into dreams—gateways to Realms with things you could grab, taste, and feel. Fueled by wine, desire, and sheer determination, I slaved through late nights to create my magnum opus, the Slightly Unstable Cosmic Climax Union & Backup Universe Storage—SUCCU-BUS, en bref. However, its maiden voyage went wrong—oops! I was nearly turned into cinders and knocked out the grid’s power in the process. But from my awful miscalculation burst a glowing rift, from which emerged a towering, graceful and mythical vixen named Yume. Her voice soothing and seductive and her gaze, hot enough to melt steel.
My machine lacked the correct form of energy to connect with the dream, and so it ripped open the closest coordinate it could anchor to. In this case, a pocket dimension within out own reality, which Yume lovingly refers to as a prison. Thankfully we got along very well, shared similar desires and both had something the other wanted. With her otherworldly energy, I updated my design: the SUCCU-BUS MK II.
Armed with Yume's esoteric energy, I was now ready to use my new device. Since Yume is unable to dream herself and can only feed off the dreams of others, she insisted on testing it first, commenting that my wild imagination was “A little too vivid" for a simple test run. I can't be that bad… can I? As we began its trial, all seemed well until, naturellement, it wasn't. A ghastly rip, like reality itself rending tore from the device, forcing us to clap hands over ears and squint shut our eyes, daring only to look once the sound and its resonance faded. A portal—an enticing purple vortex, thrumming with hair raising energy, like static, swirled into being. I quickly checked the readings on my machine only to be met with a mess of errors, question marks and zeros on the console where my precious data should've been!
Failing to set anchor on solid ground, or rather an actual dream, the SUCCU-BUS MK II surged into the vast expanse—only to snag a hushed hollow void that I subsequently dubbed the "Nexus", a terminal linking all Realms as one. From the Nexus emerged Nev, its lone resident, keeper and anarchy incarnate, ever fond of making trouble, mischief and "entangling" herself with others. With a limitless font of energy, and a curiosity born of their desire to meet new people, Nev offered to supply my device with the power it needed to maintain the machine's connection to the Nexus and the realms beyond.
Now, fueled with a perfect source of energy, the SUCCU-BUS MK II hummed to life, letting us explore far off Realms with reckless glee. The chaos began stacking high, weighing on both the sanity and wallet of my dear friend who so kindly lent me their home. To ease their financial strain, repay the favor and tease the world with our delights, we crafted adult toys in the likeness of our peculiar pack, for all to enjoy. What once was a little group has now become an ever-growing and wild ensemble, with many new faces. Nev, our resident instigator and mascot, Yume, sultry and maternal, Fannie and Beta, and many more, all enchanting in their own right—their stories, tales for another day.
Details & Terminology

The SUCCU-BUS MKII
First, mes amours, meet my ‘Dream Machine,’ the SUCCU-BUS MKII—my pride, my bébé, my ticket to Realms beyond the mundane! Picture this: a padded table, plush and inviting, with restraints to keep you cozy—or naughty, depending on your mood—hooked up with electrodes that tickle your temples and beyond. Nearby hums the main brain—a whirring tangle of screens, gauges, and dials where I program our wild expeditions. And at the heart? A raised platform with a large oval frame, where a swirling purple portal winks into life—it's all very chrome-y and shiny, I assure you.
How does it work? Simple, on the surface at least, yet still deliciously fitting that ‘Mad Scientist’ theme I strive for: a daring soul strips bare—oui, naked is best!—and settles onto the table, electrodes and wires are applied to their body in order to translate their dreams as they drift off. The machine sips basic electricity to hum along, but when it’s portal time, it guzzles the condensed energy provided by a particularly esoteric volunteer—think of it like sipping on their essence, like a fine wine! As our dreamer snoozes, the SUCCU-BUS logs their deepest desires, interests and hobbies. Then it starts dowsing via the Nexus, an endless sea of possibility, to find a fitting Realm. Found one? Bam! Coordinates locked, like a cosmic bookmark—so we can open the door whenever we please, or remember to seal the more questionable destinations, hehe ‘whoops.’ Normalement, the machine can only map a single Realm per dreamer, though in some rarer cases an individual might be able to generate additional sets of coordinates.
Once it’s got a fix, the screens flicker with a rundown on conditions, weather, relative wildlife, warnings and danger levels—all a bit hazy, an educated guess at best. I’m tweaking it, darlings, but sometimes it just throws me question marks—C’est la vie, I suppose! When all is set, a sharp tear rips the air, and that oval frame fills with a thrumming purple gateway—step through, and voilà, you’re in another Realm, though the tingling lasts for a while...
What exactly is the Nexus?
The Nexus—a cosmic enigma we stumbled on when the SUCCU-BUS was first used on Yume—is a vast expanse, like space itself, cradling doorways instead of planets. Picture it: eyes squeezed shut as you step through the portal—you open them, only to find yourself floating among nebulas and astral wonders. Soft purples and pinks swirl around, flecked with twinkling motes, stretching endlessly in every direction. Needless to say, my first visit left quite an impression on me! Yet, after the initial panic subsides, you’ll realize your feet somehow find an invisible floor to walk upon. Doors pepper the void—locked or ajar—each a gateway to a Realm my machine’s tapped, or one still waiting.
This is where my wonderful little troublemaker, Nev, came from, along with her odd abilities and powers. For example she can teleport between points at will, summon mundane objects or create doorways to empty Realms. Nev, cannot however, alter or destroy things in the Nexus or change its inherent laws. It’s not eerie, just overwhelming—beautiful yet lonely, with solid ground you can’t see and faint chimes humming like a cosmic wind. This is the very tether, linking our world to every Realm; my Machine sails its endless sea to discover new lands—and without the Nexus, poof! They’d vanish, that’s it, parti!
Nev shrugs at its origins—‘Time? What’s that? Can I eat it?’ what a kidder, though she has no clue how she or it came to be. Is it a tear in spacetime? A divine bubble? My machine’s doing? Someone’s closet? I’ve no idea—it’s a mystery to me, maybe as old as existence itself. Its keeper, tangled in its essence for reasons she doesn’t bother to ponder, won’t be answering our questions any faster either. All I know? It’s a stunning find, the gateway to the dreams I’ve chased forever and the beginning of a new adventure.
What is a Realm and how is it found?
We refer to the world's my SUCCU-BUS uncovers as Realms. Each one is tethered to the Nexus and unlocked by the dream it maps to its door. Most Realms match the dreamer’s deepest wishes, passions, lusts, and hobbies. For example, if the Dreamer loves the sea, the Realm will reflect that somehow—while others seem to spring from nowhere, stumbled upon seemingly by chance. Each a new world to explore, brimming with their own landscapes, creatures, people, and rules—each distinct, each a discovery, and all unique in some way.
Beyond the worlds discovered, there are countless unique Realms yet to be mapped by my machine. They’re not mere places—they’re destinations, linked through the Nexus like islands in its endless sea. My SUCCU-BUS charts them, letting us step across, gathering tales, wonders, and new friends with every visit—some, however, are trickier and more dangerous to navigate, occasionally barren and desolate.
So there you have it, the SUCCU-BUS MKII is my dream mapping invention, the Nexus is our crossroads, and the Realms are the playgrounds we romp through. It’s a mess, oui, but it’s my mess—and with the rest of my friends, we’re turning chaos into something you can grab, touch, and feel.
The Dream Beyond the Machine
Why chase these dreams, you ask?
Let me tell you. The SUCCU-BUS, the Nexus, the Realms—they’re more than just this mad scientist’s whimsy. They’ve led me to craft something tangible: fantasy toys, inspired by the friends and creatures I’ve met across these worlds. It’s not just about the making of the toys—though I do love expressing myself creatively and testing them firsthand, hehe. It’s about purpose, about sharing something real with the world.
I pour my heart into these toys because quality and safety matter—too many out there cut corners, and I’ve seen the risks and witnessed the consequences. I want mine to be different, crafted with care so anyone who uses them can trust they’re safe and well-made. Beyond that, I believe they open a door—intimacy with a fantasy character isn’t just play; it’s a chance to deepen our understanding, to nurture empathy and compassion in ways we might not expect. Each toy, shaped after May, Dominic, Nev, or the other odd souls I’ve encountered, offers a connection—emotional, intimate, whatever someone seeks. It’s a bridge between our world and theirs.
For me, it’s also about exploration—new sensations, wild ideas, from monsters and tentacles to werewolves and knots, alien species or mythological beings, whatever mad concept our imaginations can think of. I adore diving into the unknown and experimenting, and these toys let me—and others—do just that.
But all this is bigger than me. I dream of a haven, an online space where we can gather, unjudged, open—to share stories, seek advice, or simply marvel at it all. A community where the Realms, the toys, and our journeys and experiences weave together. That’s my end goal: make a little something (or big something) for everyone, create a place for us all to belong, to discover, and maybe, just maybe, to grow a little kinder together through it.
