Actually full disclosure until like a couple months ago I thought that Severance and Succession were the same thing. They're both three-syllable titles that start with S and from the scattered posts I saw on my dash appeared to involve mostly people looking very distraught in business-y environments. Eventually I started to pick up on the sci-fi stuff but for a while I was just like "Man, this family is even more fucked up than I thought!"

Ice Cream Confessional

“Are you high?” Flynn asked as she stood in front of Julie with her hands on her hips.

“No.” She scoffed taking another bite of mint chocolate chip.

“Are you drunk?” Carrie frowned.

“Unfortunately not,” She sighed taking a sip of lemonade.

“Then what the fuck is wrong with you Julie Molina Patterson!” Flynn threw her arms up in the air. “You text us 911 and we show up to find you sitting on the floor in your pjs at three in the afternoon eating ice-cream out of the carton?”

“I’m pregnant.” Julie growled before shoving another spoonful of minty goodness in her mouth.

Flynn and Carrie looked at each other with wide eyes.

“We’re going to need more ice cream.” Flynn whispered.

“And spoons,” Carrie nodded and left the room as Flynn slowly lowered herself to the floor.

“Jules…” Flynn placed her hand on her knee and squeezed. “Are you sure? Because Violet is only six months old and I thought you couldn’t get pregnant if you were breastfeeding.”

She rolled her eyes and turned to pull out a bag she had stashed under the sofa and dumped the five pregnancy tests she’d taken out on the floor between them. “Well according to the internet it’s rare but not unheard of.”

“Fuck…” Flynn sighed.

“I take it you haven’t told Luke?” Carrie asked coming back in the room and sat gracefully beside Flynn before handing her a pint of chunky monkey and a spoon.

“Considering he’s not here feeding her that ice cream I assumed not.” Flynn took a bite of her ice cream, humming in approval.

“I told him I needed a break from Violet so he took her to my dad’s for the afternoon.” Julie sighed as she put the tests back in the bag and leaned against the couch. “What the fuck am I gonna do?”

“You’re gonna have another baby.” Carrie shrugged digging into her pint of cookie dough.

“Thank you captain obvious!” Julie scoffed. “We’re supposed to head out on tour in a couple months. I just got my body back.” She sighed and looked down. “Well as back as it’s probably ever going to get.” She dropped the carton of ice cream on the floor and got up to pace. “We’ve signed contracts! There was a plan!”

“Now we’ll just have to make a new plan Jules.” Flynn stood and grabbed her by the shoulders stopping her tirade. “I know you want more kids. I know Luke wants more kids. It’s just going a little faster than you intended and that’s ok.”

“I’m honestly not that surprised,” Carrie said from the floor where she was still eating her ice cream. “It’s a wonder you didn’t get pregnant years ago as much as you two have coitus.”

Julie giggle. “Coitus?”

Carrie grinned. “You asked us all to not swear around the baby.”

“Hey,” Flynn pulled her into a hug. “I know you’re the one that has to go through it but you’ve got all of us at your beck and call to help you as much as we can.”

“I know.” She sighed leaning her head on Flynn’s shoulder. “I love you.”

“I love you too.” Flynn kissed her on the forehead.

“Hey!” Luke called banging in the front door. “We’re home mama!”

Carrie stood up giggling. “That one is gonna be just fine with this surprise.”

Luke froze with Violet still buckled in her car-seat fast asleep at the sight of all three of them standing in the living room, his eyes darting to the open cartons of ice cream on the floor. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” Flynn shook her head as she went over and took the car seat out of his hand. “Your wife just needs to have a chat with you.”

“We’re going to take our niece up to her room and put her in her crib,” Carrie said patting Luke on the shoulder as she passed. “Try and keep it down.”

Julie watched her best friends disappear down the hall and then turned to her husband who was still looking at her like a deer in headlights.

“Babe?”

~*~

Flynn and Carrie had just gotten Violet out of her car seat when there was a loud WHOOP from the front of the house waking the little girl up.

“Better get used to the noise little one.” Carrie kissed her on the forehead as Flynn bounced the baby to keep her from crying. “It’s not going to be quiet here for long.”

Can’t cook eggs and a song at the same time

Prompt: Cooking Together

Julie smells smoke about 3 seconds before the fire alarm goes off. She sprints to the kitchen to find Luke frantically fanning at the offending skillet with a baking sheet. 

“How did this even happen?”

“I don’t know! I started making an omelet and then I figured out why the bridge for Free wasn’t working,” Luke confesses.

Julie chuckles. Of course Luke had gotten distracted by a song. 

“You’re no longer allowed in the kitchen without adult supervision.” She pulls the carton of eggs out of the fridge and heats up a clean pan. “Now tell me about the bridge.”

[alyssoid]

Luke fidgeted. “And, I hope that... maybe you would want to, you know, explore this thing between us more. I know you said you needed time and I can wait I just, I had to tell you.”

Companion poll to this one - what would be considered "hot" in your region? Specifically what's unbearably hot no matter the conditions. Like for me anything above 25c is way too much.

(Also vote for where it STARTS to get way too hot - the higher options are a given I feel like.)
