Description
Another splash of water hits the pile of heated stones contained in an open-top stove within a small, wooden room. Cloud of steam rapidly fills up the small space providing a comfortable wave of warmth upon a beige female dog and green male wolf resting upon wooden seats: both canines sighing in rhythm from their bodies receiving yet another dose of comforting steam. -"Ahhh... Just perfect, isn't it Jaden?" Brandine cuts the silence while fixing her sitting position, grasping her shins bit more properly as her cozy face peeks over her shoulder to observe her buddy nodding in compliance while leaning against the back-wall.

-"Won't argue there, Brandine... This really reminds about the times of me visiting an unusual pond which had constantly warm water that allowed similar feeling when I was free from training or tasks" Jaden comments back, opening his eye slightly to see a curious smile on Brandine's face. -"Oh really? Wanna tell me more about it: it sounds rather peculiar place if it can match my steam bath installation" the dog prompts a question, keeping her watch on the wolf who's adjusting his bottom from numbness is sitting for a while.

-"Certainly. It is a 2 square mile volcanic field with dozens of mineral-infused, shallow ponds with entirely clear water which has shown to have beneficial and even curing properties on diseases for anyone taking a dip in it... not a surprise how it has had a long-lasting place in the village's culture if I'd say" Jaden recalls on the place, noting how Brandine's tail sways from more curious shivers roaming in her body from hearing about such place: bringing her to ask: " Really interesting... It could be interesting to visit thou I presume that they are indeed sacred and off-limits for outsiders, aren't they?".

-"Well, actually no. Only the closest, smallest pond is withing constant use for the villagers while rest are pretty much unused: mostly due to the secluded location despite the fact how there are easy ways to get there even by vehicle", Jaden explains further, snickering as he notes how Brandine takes a moment with a pondering expression as another load of steam fills the room. -"Huh, that's quite peculiar to hear... Maybe I could indeed take a trip there with you to see how exciting it could be to be in water that is clear enough for anyone at surface to see into?" Brandine brings her thoughts to Jaden.

-"I could get you there indeed someday, Brandine... Thou now, mind if we focus on this relaxing resort you have first?" Jaden replies as he leans back once more, bringing the canines back to their positions to receive another load of steam, prompting Brandine prompting gentle giggling. -"You're right there, buddy... we're not in a rush to anywhere", she comments to the moment, drifting into her cozy state once more along her friend whom has just brought another dosage of interesting quirks about him, something that has formed a balanced friendship between them to enjoy moments like this together...

Hell yeah, an inspiring creation utilizing a Finnish cultural behavior to embrace two character's in a warm manner

I decided to get this drawing back up (after doing some updating and tweaks) as I just am unable to stop admiring the premise and setting creating something wholesome and culturally appropriate. In short, one day I got an idea to have my doggo Brandine and one of her latest friends "Jaden the Wolf" (from AronTheWolfo ) to partake into a near traditional Finnish sauna-culture: getting in without any worries and attire, to settle on wooden benches and letting the temperature gently ascend into comfortable, muscle-relaxing and body-scent suppressing atmosphere to spend time together after a long day swimming at a beach.

This really just displays that sometimes one has to let their judgement aside and enjoy simplistic premises: after all nothing beats like getting cleaned from sweat/bacteria along with getting one's muscles relaxed enough for a great sleep like getting to enjoy it with someone close to you, am I right? Sauna definitely understands that it is not a place for objectifying it's occupants but to offer a comfortable place to have no worries about one's appearance

That being said thou...

[SERIOUS DISCLAIMER!]
As some may recall about a month back I used to have this picture uploaded to my gallery until I had to take it down: while the main reason for removal was about the momentary cut between the context (i.e Brandine and Jaden not being friends due to latter's family premise that was created with other characters), I unfortunately had to also remove it due to some brainless f**king swines (literally) whom immediately proceeded to spam sexualizing comments and down-right offensive depictions about something that on Finnish culture is seriously considered offensive (since sex and sauna do not belong together, either physically or verbally): all based because them being in "nude status", which legit got me FURIOUS from seeing my cultural depiction being s**t on by such swines.

As a fore-sight of that despicable, disrespecting and plain offensive behavior, I am ready to instantly deliver hidden comments and outright BLOCKING on any user whom dares to depict painting a sexualized picture of this scenario all based upon how they somehow keep an entitled thought that "artistic/in-context nudity = AUTOMATIC PORN"... I won't care if they didn't notice this warning beforehand: if anything that gives me more reason to slam such punishments from showing plain disregard upon other's cultural rules due to feeling like they're entitled upon forcing any creation under their fantasies... Just better to keep it to your own minds, f**kin' swines!

(Same rules apply to any RP-comments, btw: I am aware where those will most likely lead up and I ain't gonna give in even a hair!)

Phew, that rant's over. Where was I?..

Hopefully you enjoy this picture, fellas!
