This Christmas I made gingerbread cookies for the first time ever! They turned out great!!!
I used this recipe, and I was like 'surely this is too much molasses????' but no, it was the exact correct amount of molasses, they were soft and flavorful and just delightful
(I have been using this woman's recipes since high school and they have worked perfectly literally every time. Like how??)
I'm definitely gonna try and make them again next year!
Bonus: here's the ornaments I made for my coworkers! The cookie one is what reminded me I'd been wanting to try gingerbread! :)
#the texas cookie is because my parents own a texas cookie cutter from when they lived in texas before i was born#and im a big believer in making people's lives more surreal lmao#lori chat#food#here you also see the woodland pattern on the corelle plates i grew up with that coordinate with the woodland pattern on pyrex dishes-#-which is why my mother got a matching vintage pyrex bowl for christams a year or two ago#i am grateful the pyrex special interest has largely passed but the knowledge stays with me lmaoooo#ANYWAYS happy holidays hahaha

Beasties of Greenhollow soundtrack! Some tracks on this are from older projects like elphame but all of them have been reworked in some way. Most of them are entirely new. Enjoy!
#soundtrack#music#indiegamedev#Youtube#beasties of greenhollow#indiegame#chiptune#elphame#hey again gang. Another scream into the void#Things have been getting more interesting tbh#I'm starting therapy again. I have learned from this that my anxiety is in the very very high end.#And I guess the only thing that surprises me about that is that it's an abnormally high amount vs the average.#I've had more intrusive thoughts this week than in a long time. (I almost said ever but that was 2021 where they woke me up...)#It's mostly about my mistakes and ppl I've scared out of being in my life because of the actions based on my anxieties.#Like “if i could go back in time I could fix it”... girl you'd be going back in time like 100 times. At that point it's not fair lmao#I think I shouldn't talk about who I'm dating here anymore. Friends told me to stop seeing so many new people and I took that advice.#I'm exercising incredibly frequently; obsessively so. It really doesn't change much in my anxiety. I walk for like 3 hours a day.#My friend group is... difficult. One of us had a falling out with another and the dynamic is just so awkward for me now.#it just seems like everyone else has moved past it though but I still miss him. I don't think this can be reversed#we used to talk on my stream and play digimon cards n jackbox and d&d... But now they're only interested in d&d which I don't love#For god's sake I've published a game and moved to a nice new place. why aren't I happy hahahaha#work is no longer enjoyable since BoG was publised. our new project is in an iffy category but it's not my place to argue#I want to write music and animate but I have to do my hours for this new project before I can do anything like that...#I ended up siding with my current boss in that ethical dilemma I posted about and rn idk if that was the right decision.#Okay what can i talk about that's good? We moved to a nice place. I'm celebrating BoG's release with family tomorrow.#Graeme's playing Iconoclasts- one of my favourite games! He's also returning to work soon so it'll be less awkward to have a lady over#Thinking about good stuff going on just draws the mind to holidays I've had before. I treasure my memories!#Okay so I've complained for a long long time bc life doesn't feel great rn. But rest assured I already know this is 90% my fault hahaha#Oh another good thing that happened!!! My elestrals card was printed and ppl are really happy with it. I have a card in a real card game!!!#don't tell anyone but there's another one on the way. Anyway that will do for now. I'm sorry about my... self.

Riddle: ...
Azul: With school vacation approaching, if you haven’t decided on a holiday destination yet, why not visit La Grotta? It’s a well-known restaurant owned by my mother.
Azul: I can arrange reservations for you and Malleus-senpai. *smiles*
MC: I appreciate the offer, but maybe another time. Pé— Lilia has already made plans for the vacation.
Azul: I see. Anyway, just let me know when you're free. I'd be happy to assist you personally.
MC: *smiles* Thank you.
Riddle: ...
Cater: Why are you staring at them, Riddle-kun?
Riddle: ...
Riddle: *confused frown* Is MC aware of what kind of person Azul is?
Cater: Probably. They're friends with Floyd, remember?
Riddle: ...
Riddle: I couldn’t help but worry; they’re surrounded by negative influences.
Cater: Oh? Aren't you just jealous, Riddle-kun~?
Riddle: *frowns*
Riddle: Cater, if you insist that I have a crush on them, it will be off with your head.
Cater: Okay, okay. I'll shut my mouth.
Azul: By the way, Floyd wants to know if you'd be interested in having a sleepover with hi- *a snake fell on his shoulder*
Azul: ...
MC: ...
Azul: It's just a leaf, isn't it? *tries to stay calm*
MC: ...
MC: It’s not, but it’s a corn snake. I don’t think it will bite you.
Azul: That sounds very reassuring. Haha...
MC: ...
MC: *carefully holds the snake and lifts it off his shoulder*
MC: *to the snake* There, you must be frightened from falling from such a height.
Azul: ...
Azul: *sad frowns* It landed on me.
MC: I wonder if it belongs to someone.
Azul: Well, It must be Kalim.
MC: Kalim?
Azul: Kalim Al Asim—he's a sophomore like me and the dorm leader of Scarabia.
Jamil: *sigh* I apologize for this trouble.
MC: There's no need for that. I'm just here to return the snake. I'll be on my way now.
Jamil: Oh, no. I can’t just let a guest leave. We’re having a feast—why not come and join us?
MC: That's-
Kalim: Jamil! I heard we have a guest?
Jamil: *his expression changed for a second*
Jamil: Yes. This is MC, a student from Diasomnia. You must know them from the Orientation.
Kalim: Oh! Yes! Hehe! Nice meeting you! Oh, right! Jamil-
Jamil: Yes, I know. I've already invited them.
Jamil and the rest of Scarabia students: ...
Malleus: *who also went to Scarabia when he noticed his child hasn't returned to Diasomnia* I expected the party to be lively. Ah, it doesn't matter. This is more to my liking.
Kalim: Hahaha! They're just being shy!
Jamil: Kalim.
Malleus: By the way, Al Asim, I've been informed that you weren’t handling your animals with care. You’re fortunate the snake is docile; otherwise, I would have had to punish you for creating a disturbance.
MC: Dada-
Kalim: You call Malleus 'Dada'?
MC: ...
MC: Yes.
Kalim: Oh! Is it a nickname for 'dorm leader'? But wouldn't it be better to call him 'Dodo' because it rhymes more with 'dorm leader'?
Jamil: Kalim!
Kalim: Huh?
MC and Malleus: ...
MC: *an image of a Dodo bird appeared inside their head with their father's face on it*
MC: ...
MC: *starts laughing*
Malleus: ...
Malleus: *chuckles*
Kalim: Eh? What's funny?
Jamil: ...
Malleus: We really enjoyed the party, Al Asim. However, it’s time for us to head out.
Kalim: *grins* I'm glad! Oh, by the way! MC! Can we exchange numbers?
MC: May I know the reason why?
Kalim: I want to become your friend!
MC: ...
MC: *smiles* Of course.
Kalim: Great!
Kalim: Hey, Jamil! Look! I got MC's number!
Jamil: Good.
Kalim: Oh, didn't you say you want their number too? *beams* Here!
Jamil: ...
Jamil: Kalim.
Kalim: Yes?
Jamil: *smirks* You should treat them well, so you and MC will become best of friends.
Kalim: Yeah! Then I will have two best friends!
Jamil: ...

What they do for White Day (pt.3)
❥ Featured characters: Hiiro Amagi, Leo Tsukinaga, Kanata Shinkai, Ibara Saegusa, Yuzuru Fushimi
❥ Tags: Fluff, established relationships/mutual crushes, stories are based on the !! era, no mention of pronouns
❥ A/N: The final part of my What they do for White Day Enstars special! I hope everyone has a wonderful White Day even if you don't celebrate it! Decided on these characters for last because 1. everyone likes Hiiro and Leo and 2. I haven't written for Kanata, Ibara and Yuzuru in such a long time!
Please check out part 1 and part 2 if you haven't already~
🤍 HIIRO AMAGI
This was Hiiro's first time celebrating Valentine's Day, so when you gifted him your chocolates after school, he was appreciative that you thought of him. He didn't understand the implications of the gift until you confessed your feelings which made him feel awkward as his cheeks blushed.
Deep down, he knew he liked you romantically too. That's why he stuck to you like glue, greeting you a lively good morning and helping you in any way he can.
But he didn't know that he had to reciprocate your gifts until Aira told him about White Day. He thought your confession had already established a relationship together, but if that's what the customs here are and if it would make you happy, then he'll do his best to make White Day a special day for you!
Thankfully, Aira was there to guide him so he wouldn't mess up. During lunch, he asked you to go meet him by the fountain where he gifted you a silver bracelet and a box of white chocolates. Surprisingly, he didn't need Aira's help in choosing the jewellery because he knew what looked best on you.
"Let me help you put it on!" he said happily. "There. Haha, it looks pretty, don't you think? Happy White Day, (Y/N). I hope we can celebrate even more holidays together!"
🤍 LEO TSUKINAGA
Leo jumped up and down excitedly when he received those Valentine's chocolates from you. He bragged about it the whole day, annoying the NEW DI idols in the process.
"Uwaaa! Thank you, (Y/N)!" he beamed, hugging you tightly. "Hahaha, I like you too, you know? What else should we do today? Should we go to..."
So a relationship was established with Leo almost immediately. The two of you were already close to begin with, so it wasn't too much of a surprise to others. Shockingly, he was a pretty attentive boyfriend. He always found time to check up on you during work and would provide you with drinks and snacks. Sometimes he'd leave notes, some of which were lyrics about you, and others were just stick drawings of the two of you.
These little things would always make you smile. Therefore, for White Day, Leo bought you a box of White Day-themed cookies that the two of you shared together. And of course, he had composed you a song so beautiful that it made you shed a few tears.
"Hahaha, Happy White Day, (Y/N)!" he exclaimed as he wiped your tears away. "I love you so so much! Anyway, is there anything else you'd like to do? We can do everything you want!"
🤍 KANATA SHINKAI
Kanata was new to the whole romance scene, so when you gifted him chocolates for Valentine's Day, he wondered what the occasion was.
"Oh, I see! So that's what you do on 'Valentine's Day'~" he said excitedly. "Thank you for the 'chocolates', (Y/N). Let's share them, okay~?"
However, that didn't mean he was oblivious to everything. He knew about White Day since Kaoru used to participate in it a lot back in school, so he had some idea of what to do. Additionally, he asked around because he wanted to give you, his lover, the best he could.
So on White Day, the two of you spent time together by the sea, lighting sparklers and giggling to each other's stories. He had gifted you a pearl necklace and a koi plushie from AOUMI Aquarium.
"Koi fishes symbolise love~" he explained, smiling from ear to ear. "I love you, (Y/N). Happy White Day!"
🤍 IBARA SAEGUSA
As he expected, the chocolates you made him for Valentine's Day were alluring and sweet, but what he liked most of all was the love letter you wrote for him. He would keep it in his pocket, rereading the contents when he took his short breaks at work. A smile would always appear when he did so which made coworkers wonder what he was reading.
He had planned everything out before White Day like it was a project that needed to be executed perfectly. He wrote down timeframes, date ideas, and gifts that you might like. Everything had its own section in his 'White Day' binder.
If he could give you everything in the world, he would.
On White Day, he took the day off so that the two of you were able to do everything on his schedule. First was to do an activity that you liked whether it was arts and crafts or something sports related. Second, he brought you on a lunch cruise where the two of you had lunch together on the river. However, when the third activity came, he realised you were getting tired, so he brought you home to relax and watch a movie together.
That was when he gifted you a silver necklace, and of course, he wasn't going to forget the big bouquet of white flowers he had ordered.
You appreciated everything he had done for you today even those he was kind of excessive.
"Happy White Day, my dearest (Y/N). I love you from the bottom of my heart. I hope today was satisfactory. Apologies if it was too much, but I hope we can do this again soon."
🤍 YUZURU FUSHIMI
Everyone knew you were childhood friends with Yuzuru, but they didn't expect you to hand him chocolates on Valentine's Day. Because you were so bold about it, you handed them to him in class resulting in cheers from friends and classmates. This embarrassed him greatly, but his heart had skipped a beat.
"Woo-woo!" Subaru whistled. "Congrats, Fusshi!"
He accepted your chocolates, thanking you for them, but he also scolded you for being so brash.
"I appreciate it, (Y/N), but don't do that again."
However, in private, he did accept your feelings. Unexpectedly, he had feelings for you too, but with how good he was at hiding them, you were left speechless – both figuratively and literally because he had left to go find Tori.
But he wasn't going to leave it at that. He wanted to do something for you too. After all, his purpose was to serve. On White Day, he gifted you a bento box he had cooked and white roses he grew and picked. It was sweet until he presented you with the last item – a drawing he did of you.
Nevertheless, it was cute.
"Happy White Day, (Y/N)," he smiled. "I've always loved you and will always keep loving you. I'm free after school, so let's go to that place you keep pestering me about."

A beautiful, commissioned piece from coma.stash
(P.S. I am so in love with this, I'd marry this art if I could in a heartbeat-)
(P.P.S. You can click the link on her IG handle. She has other equally beautiful works featured there.)
"If Aeon were to strip him off of his status as the demigod son of the King of the Underworld and the vessel of half of Ananke’s essence, Nico di Angelo was just a simple mortal with equally simple desires. He wasn’t a materialistic individual; Aeon once gifted him a snow globe on their first Christmas as a couple, and he remembered Nico vehemently refusing said simple gift still. Granted, he did encapsulate the universe inside of it, but still, it was simple enough by his standards."
- Chapter 13 of "A Kairos Moment"
I am not normal about this-
You guys have no idea how I had to keep quiet about this for weeks. (Not entirely quiet, cos @drksanctuary knows lol) Coma was sending me updates, and she started with Aeon first, and holy-! I wanted to marry the lineart hahaha!
Anyway, Happy Holidays (from Nico and Aeon)!
(P.P.P.S. [?] This was Nico's shirt design which Coma chose, and I think it's fitting lol.)

Sleep Token Wembley Bingo - Results
WELL WELL WELL. Look who is officially done with holidays and is back in the Token business? And what better way to celebrate, than to finally put an end to this oh so thrilling saga of the ✨Bingo Game✨
As you may remember, I had made a little bingo game with some Wembley predictions, inspired by @fivewholeminutes post. Here are the results:
Note: I am counting Vessel's painted/temporary tattoos of the Eden Cypher as a costume upgrade. Also I am aware we did not get a special Vessel x ii interaction per se, but we got that huge crew hug and stuff at the end, so IT COUNTS. I still can't believe we got the "Vessel speaks" square - given the circumstances I would've been totally fine without it, poor baby 🥺. The circle pit was pretty average from what I've seen so, eh.
We unfortunately didn't get a bingo, BUT we got some pretty cool stuff anyways. To everyone who predicted more gold motifs and Espera costume upgrades, I owe you a wish. I didn't think they would slay even more after the new masks during the German rituals (but very very very happy they did 😭💙). We didn't get Euclid (yet), but we got that beautiful rendition of Blood Sport! Also, I wish we could've thought of Vessel workout, because those hand weights were amazing hahaha.
To make up for a Not Bingo, I have spent a very long time (like, 5 minutes) on paint to make you the greatest participation prize ever. I present you, The True Token.
(i have a transparent png if anyone wants lol)
Thank you for playing, and may we all collectively lose our minds yet again with more Eepie Token content this year 🥳🖤
#LMAO ITS HERE#if you even care#i am aware its been weeks but i have been very busy and very sad so#this is literally the first day i have for myself since before christmas#i hope you like the token!!!#i thought about making something cool and serious. but i went for silly instead haha#sleep token#sleep token wembley#sleep token wembley bingo

Hello! You seem to be knowledgeable about Japan-exclusive Layton stuff so I wanted to ask if you knew how many chapters were there in Mansion Of The Deathly Mirror? I tried to look it up myself but I couldn't find an actual answer
Thank you for all your translations btw I really appreciate them!
Hi, and thanks! <3 There are six chapters in total. For more info, I will simply give you (and anyone else who reads this) a Reddit post:
This post explains everything we know about Mansion of the Deathly Mirror and how to deal with the fact that this game is lost media.
That link aside, I have a transcript planned for Mansion of the Deathly Mirror just like I did with Chelmey's Casebook and London Holiday, but I don't even have the full first chapter completed yet, so I'll have to catch up whenever I have the time and materials to do so. I haven't had the time to work on it in many months, but don't worry, I haven't forgotten about it and I WILL make a better, FULL version of the translation, as soon as I can get to it (but right now I'm kinda supposed to be preparing for my PhD defence hahahahaha).
Now for some ramblings related to the above-linked Reddit post. Long story short: we have chances of securing the game. But for that to happen, we need to be patient, and we need to be silent. If you ever find footage of the game on youtube or elsewhere, no matter what you do, leave the player alone.
Let them upload at their pace and gather the crumbs as they fall off the table, because asking for them to let you eat the whole cake has never worked in the past. By that I mean: asking someone who owns the game "hey can I see your cool shiny thing asap plz plz plz" will result in that person blocking you, no longer posting any footage or content related to that cool shiny thing, and possibly disappearing off the face of the entire internet forever. I am neither joking, nor exaggerating.
I'm not talking that much about MotDM because we don't want to get too much attention drawn to it for the time being. But don't worry, if this game ever is found (and we have a whole team searching for it, we're just secretive on purpose -- for the reasons I mentioned here and for those that are explained in more detail in the Reddit post), we WILL make sure that the fandom knows about it. It's mostly just that right now, the only person we know who has the game and is somewhat willing to make a playthrough does not want any unwanted attention, and this person is not a friend of ours. They will stop uploading if people ask for them to upload faster, and they already threatened once to delete all their videos when someone asked them if they could "share the ROM." (No. No they won't. And even if they were willing to, we can't even make anything out of a ROM yet because of the hardware being stupidly complicated anyway.)
---
So there you have it -- your answer is "6," and I could have left it at that because I have no strict obligation to say anything more since you didn't ask for any other info haha.
Unless you want to dive into this endless rabbit hole, I highly suggest you just keep that answer, leave it at that for now, and go about your day minding literally anything else. We will get back to you and the rest of the fandom once we have real news about it! It's just that for now we're all stuck in limbo hahaha, there's some stuff done in the shadows but nothing worth hyping about until we're done with it. I mean -- we can't do anything until the one (1) person who owns the game decides to upload more footage of it. Given how desperately lost this game is, we should actually be happy we get to have anything at all, even if even NWoS might come out before it.
[EDIT] Needless to say, the player who is sharing some gameplay footage does NOT know that I have a website with the beginning of a fan-translation, and if they learn even so little that it exists, they are going to have a heart attack and will likely delete their entire playthrough. And nobody wants that.
I personally won't celebrate and heave a real breath of relief before footage of the full game from start to finish with as much content as possible is secured, which is why I don't talk about it a lot. I'm just paranoid that something might go wrong like it already has multiple times in the past hahaha
---
DO NOT show my website link around at random until I say it's ok to do so. And if you share it with friends, ALWAYS mention that I am the one running it. That way if you or your friends have questions, you know who to ask for explanations.

Showstopper - The Reprise
Pairing: Eddie Munson/Fem!Reader Word Count: 2.3k Summary: It's the Sunday after Thanksgiving and the gang finds out what happened over the weekend. Warnings: Just some general making out, language, Steve and Robin being annoying. Mentions of sex, but very brief.
[Part 1] [Part 3] [Part 4] <- Coming Soon! [AO3]
A/N: hahaha get it? get it? The Reprise cause it's the much shorter follow up to the first one and also theater/acting puns? am I trying too hard? probably but this is fun. ANYWAY, this is a direct sequel and doesn't make much sense without the first part, so I would recommend reading that one first if you're just coming across this! Part 3, the Christmas Special, is already in the works and I'm hoping to put it out before the Holiday but we can only hope at this point. Enjoy!!
Time seems to slip away when you’re kissing Eddie.
Minutes melt into hours that pass without your knowledge, the sleepy Sunday morning giving way to early afternoon as you’re distracted wrapped up in each other, and it’s about to become a problem.
Back when you were going to be spending all weekend back home, you and Robin came up with a plan. You were supposed to arrive back in town in the late afternoon, so Steve, still somehow acting as Robin’s chauffeur even after all these years, would bring her back from Hawkins around the same time. The four of you would get dinner at your favorite diner, debrief on the holiday weekend, and then the boys would head back to Hawkins, sparing you the last half hour of the drive you would make taking Eddie home.
Except you’ve been back since late Friday morning.
Sleep hovered just behind you both for the length of the drive, music low as the scenery passed in a blur and Eddie quietly hummed along. You tried your best to stay awake and keep him company, but the gentleness of his voice and the ever-present feeling of his fingers stroking your neck, tickling at the hairs at the nape of it lulled you to sleep a couple of times. He would laugh each time you woke, insisting it was okay if you wanted to actually try and sleep but that didn’t stop you from resisting it. So when you got back to your dorm building – still quiet and mostly uninhabited – you both clambered into your tiny twin bed, pressing close to each other and letting the nap take over you.
You enjoyed spending the weekend together, different now that it was just he and you. Sure, Eddie has always given affection freely, and to anyone and everyone who would accept it, but this Eddie is different. This Eddie doesn’t hesitate to grab you by the back of the neck and pull you in for a toe-curling kiss when you’re supposed to be paying attention to Ghoulies. This Eddie doesn’t stop his hands from wandering as you lay with your head on his shoulder. This Eddie walks with his hand stuffed in your back pocket as you cross campus to get some food, and even pulls you closer possessively when another student walks by.
You didn’t dare ask what all this meant for your friendship, lest you pop the divine little bubble you’ve created together in the quietness of your four cinder block walls.
So here you are on Sunday, still nothing more than a tangle of limbs and warm laughter hushed between lazy presses of the lips. The beanbag beneath you rustles as you bring your foot up, bent at the knee to bracket Eddie’s hip. Automatically, he hooks his fingers behind your knee to pull you even closer, stubble rough against your chin, tongue exploring the depths of your mouth.
Hearty hums and happy little giggles from the both of you are drowned out by the cassette player on your desk, blanketing you in familiar, heavy guitar riffs and a rapid drumbeat that rattles in your chest (but maybe that’s just your heart beating rapidly against your ribs).
The music also deafens the sound of Steve and Robin’s footsteps and their bickering growing louder as they approach the door.
Fingers curl into the thick curls in the back of his head and you push up onto your elbow to turn the both of you, hovering over him now as he continues his assault on your lips and –
“Honey, I’m hooo-ly shit!!”
The door slamming against the cement wall and the sound of Robin’s voice startles you apart, cheeks aflame and breath ragged. If your heart was racing before, it’s slamming now. Though their arrival scared you enough to break your kiss, Eddie’s hold on the back of your neck didn’t let you go too far, and it’s safe to say you’ve both been caught red-handed.
Time stills.
You knew that this would come up in your debrief of the weekend. You knew that your bubble would pop and the moments you shared together couldn’t stay between just the two of you, but this is not how you imagined your friends finding out.
“What the actual fuck, you guys?” Steve forces out, the humor and disbelief in his voice giving away that he’s not actually all that angry. Hands on his hips, in his natural disgruntled babysitter state, he narrows his eyes in the direction where you and Eddie are still tangled together, both of you too stunned to move. “You know you don’t have to trick us into thinking you’re dating, right!?”
“I– well, we…we were just–” Eddie stammers beneath you, and when he talks with his hands in true Eddie fashion, you take the opportunity to roll away from his hold.
You only wish you could keep on rolling under the bed…or away from this moment.
“Oh, this is rich!” Robin chuckles, slowly clapping and trying not to snort alongside her laughter. The second you stand up, she’s rushing you, holding onto your upper arms and giving your body a little shake as she rambles, “tell me everything. How did we get here? Are you two a thing now? This is so exciting, Steve!” Dropping your arms, she turns back to Steve with wild eyes and a smile that seems like it can’t get any bigger. Still, it grows. “Didn’t I tell you they would come back as a real couple?”
Until this point, you didn’t think it was possible to feel all the blood rushing from your face, eyes like dinner plates. “Whoa there, pump the brakes.”
Eddie finally finds his feet again, springing up beside you with just as much nervous energy. “I wouldn’t say that. But…” turning toward you, his eyes soften and he holds out a hand, warm and gentle when you take it. He strokes his thumb along the back of your knuckles. “Something?”
You nod, lips pursed to cage in a nervous guffaw at his choice of words (or lack thereof). In the year that you’ve known him, Eddie Munson has never been at a loss for words. “We haven’t, uh, talked about it yet.”
Your roommate huffs her disbelief and rolls her eyes, “of course you haven’t! Idiots, all of you.”
“Don’t lump me into this,” Steve scoffs and holds his hands up in defense.
“Come on then,” she prompts, taking your hand and dragging you toward the door. You throw Eddie an apologetic grimace over your shoulder. “Let’s go to the Sunrise, I need a burger. And details.”
—
Plates pushed to the center of the table, glasses empty, a too-large slice of cake for the four of you to share already ordered, you’ve finally recounted the events of your Thanksgiving (sparing the more intimate details). The way your parents treated the both of you, the way he calmed your nerves in tense moments and the way you defended him to your Mom that was far too sincere to be an act. Reminiscent of Thanksgiving dinner, Eddie’s hand barely leaves the comfort of your thigh, though now it’s softer, more affectionate and less teasing. Color rises on his cheeks when you mention how different the first kiss in your bedroom felt. You bump him with your shoulder then, laughing softly. Neither of you mention anything too specific, but when you fade the story out and Steve points between the two of you with a quirked brow, Eddie nods his confirmation, earning a whispered, “nice,” from the other boy.
“Do you have class tomorrow?” Robin asks when all is said and done.
“That’s the question you have for me right now?’ You ask, dumbfounded.
“Uh, yeah,” she scoffs, “it’s relevant, I promise.”
“Well, you’ve been living with me all semester, have I ever had Monday/Wednesday classes?” Both boys snort at your sarcasm.
Right as the waiter drops off your dessert, Robin nods and tries to subtly kick Steve under the table (she is not subtle about it at all). “Right, duh, me either. Hey, Steve, I left…that thing at mom and dad’s. Can you take me back?”
He protests, words muffled through the too-big mouthful of cake. “What!? We just-” Another, harder kick. He swallows dramatically, “OH YEAH, very important, that thing.” They both stand in a hurry, Steve throwing a couple bills on the table to cover their food before starting for the door.
Robin leans in towards both of you and whispers harshly, “talk to each other. Figure your shit out, so that I can sleep in my own bed tomorrow.”
From the door they both wave and Steve calls out, “be back to pick you up tomorrow, Munson! Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do!”
The air is still around you, your fate sealed by the tinkling of the bell above the door. Both of you are quiet, Eddie’s thumb still absent-mindedly stroking at the top of your thigh where his hand rests, and you poke quietly at the dessert in front of you, not all that interested in eating it all of a sudden.
You know you need to talk about it. You know it.
If you had to venture a guess, you’d say that the outcome of this conversation could only be good, but still something nagged at the back of your mind. Some buried insecurity that pulls at your nerves as you set your fork down and turn in the booth to face him. Elbow propped up on the back of the bench and head in your hand, you sigh.
“Those were some spectacular theatrics,” Eddie says, breaking the tension. You both giggle. “Even for them.”
“Yeah,” another sigh, “they’re right though, we should probably talk.”
Eddie mirrors you, tucking one leg up on the booth and resting his elbow on the seat back as well, but he holds out the same hand with an encouraging look. You can’t help but smile as you take the hand offered to you, warm and comforting.
Neither of you know how to start, it’s obvious, but after another quiet moment he speaks up. It’s awkward, nervous even, a far cry from the usual confidence Eddie carries himself with. When he looks up into your eyes, there’s a vulnerability there that you’ve only ever seen once before, when he was performing a new acoustic version of one of his songs.
“So I…have really enjoyed this weekend.” He says hesitantly, clearing his throat and shifting a little in his seat. He squeezes gently where your hands are joined, as if to make sure you’re still there. “And not just the ‘messing with your family’ part.”
You interject the only way you know how, with humor to hide your own anxiety and a little bit of a tease. “Yeah, you’re right the sex part was pretty stellar, too.”
For only the second time in your time knowing him, you’ve rendered Eddie speechless once again, stuttering out his next response. “W-well, you know,that’s – that’s not exactly the point I was trying to make but it is a very good point.” You squeeze back, wrinkling your nose and giggling softly, emphasizing that you were only teasing. “It was all great. I liked getting to see a new side of you – and I realize now that you can still make that dirty, I see it in your eyes, don’t you dare!”
Both of you are laughing a little manically, your heart fluttering nervously in your chest. It almost hurts to swallow the dry comment you were about to make, but you press on. “Ugh, fine! I get what you mean, though,” tugging his hand into your lap, you cover it with your free hand, taking it in both of yours. It’s stupid, really, how this is what’s making you blush. Not even 12 hours ago you were having sex in the communal showers and now you’re here, blushing up a storm in the fluorescent light of the diner because you have to talk about your feelings. “I’ve kind of always had a crush on you, you know that?”
“Always!?” He inquires, eyebrows shooting up behind the mess of his bangs as his smile broadens into something a little more mocking. His hand turns in your own, breaking your hold to tickle teasingly at your palm. “Even when you thought I was a home invader?”
“Maybe not then.”
“Oh, I did.”
Your brows knit together in concern, “you did what?”
“Had a thing for you, even then. Maybe some would call it a crush,” he shrugs, “Okay, I would call it a crush. Like I said the other day, that threat did it for me.”
“You’re an idiot.”
The quiet laugh you share is interrupted by the waiter, who has already taken Steve and Robin’s payment and boxed up your cake without you noticing. He asks the question everyone seems to be asking tonight, “alright kids, are we together or separate tonight?”
Before you have any time to answer, Eddie’s handing over a stack of cash and insisting it’s all on one bill. When the waiter walks away, Eddie silences your protests with an adamant shake of the head. “I know it’s no dive bar, but consider it our first official date. The first of…many? If you’ll have me.” The confidence is starting to seep back into his tone, but there’s still a hesitation. It’s the same nagging insecurity that was ebbing at you moments ago, the fear of rejection despite how well the conversation seems to be going.
Dropping his hand, you opt to hold onto his face by both cheeks, squishing his plush lips into a cartoonish pucker. His smile is still clear through his smushed face, and you nod excitedly, leaning in to whisper, “I’d be honored to go on many dates with you, Ed.” Giggling at your wording, you bridge the gap and kiss him silly.

Man, 2023 wasn't a good year for me at all, I dare say it was one of the worst, I think it even surpassed 2022 because they were both difficult. 2023 was one of the most stressful years I've ever had with the history of so many problems that I had and overwhelmed myself this year, such as complicated friendships, meeting very difficult and dramatic new people, overworked work on drawings, school stress, low self-esteem with the my school performance, stress with family and plans that I never had the opportunity to carry out this year (I only managed to carry out 50% of my plans, but the other 50% were the ones I most wanted to work on before the end of the year), So yeah... I can say that this year was a nightmare for me...
But still, there were good things this year, even though 2023 was terrible, I still managed to enjoy good moments, like reconciliation with some people, meeting new people, new friendships that luckily had a group of people who were very good people and healthy, I joined a new small Fandom that I was very well accepted, I learned a new second style of relaxing and fun art, I went to the psychologist for the first time and it helped me a lot (I was able to vent about my life and at the same time study about my psychology and my way of being) and it also made me discover myself as level 1 autistic (of course I had low self-esteem about this for a while, but later I understood my way of being human better) and I was able finally starting to put myself first lately for my psychological sake!♡
I don't wish anyone, anyone at all, to go through the horrible and complicated things that I had to deal with in 2023, I'm not 100% strong enough to say that I know how to get by on my own, but I can already say that I started to get along more value and respecting myself and my limits! And also this 2023 was the year in which I had an existential crisis because it seemed like it passed quickly and at the same time it seemed like it took about 2 years to reach its end lol
But anyway, I wish you all a Happy New Year, may you have a year of peace, tranquility, comfort, calm and lots of love with yourselves and those you love to be with!!! May God guide you in this 2024 and may he take good care of you, I want this new year to be the least traumatic and the least stressful, and I'm already preparing myself for whatever happens hahaha
And well, unfortunately I celebrate late compared to you because of my time difference, and I wish you all a wonderful new year, may 2024 be the most pleasant and least difficult year for all of us to shine and achieve our goals !!! May God guide and illuminate each of your lives and help you on your path!! And even though some may be atheists, I won't judge, I still wish everyone lots of love and luck in this new year with lots of love and affection, peace, prosperity, evolution in character and personal hobbies and much more...
...Happy 2024 and happy holidays guys~ 🥳🎉✨️🎊🎆

well, this is my last post of mine for the year... so please enjoy my last offering of eye candy (obviously non-photoshopped cuz i hate doing that...! also sorry but im still incapable of straightening anything out so i included the unnecessary outline) for 2022! ;)
hahaha. i’ll still be putting out stuff though i won’t be making any posts until 2023... and while i will be responding to messages and file requests, expect a delayed response if you try to contact me.
i’ll be diverting most of my attention to yuugiroku now since i really need to get a head start if i want to somehow manage maintaining my usual output of translations, and while i have yet to decide when i’ll be back, january is also one of the months that i post less translations.
anyway! merry christmas to all, and i hope everyone has a safe and happy holidays.
p.s.: kazama’s was the cheapest of these, so that’s all i got. the cost of saito’s was too outrageous (so was souji’s but i don’t look for his merch xD).
as always, feel free to use!

Spider-Man Read-Through 079 Search For The Green Goblin Formula (ASM 244-245)
MASTERPOST
You know me, when there's a Green Goblin, I'm in!
Who is it, who is it?
Also featuring: manboobs.
Soooo Peter applies for a "formal leave of absence" and essentially reiterates that he has ADHD. I know the signs! No wonder I like him so much.
Oof.
This whole beginning is about how Peter has ADHD. He's on the wrong floor for the line, he has a hard time dealing with the wait, etc.
Dean Krenshaw is a pain, so after getting his paper signed, Peter webs up his door so he can't leave hahaha
He's very proud of himself.
Meanwhile, MJ's having a lunch with Harry and Liz! She's happy they're so in love, but she says she's not ready for marriage herself. It's also clear that Peter's a complicated subject for her.
Unfortunately, I found what follows pretty boring. Osborn things get attacked again, Spidey goes there, fights, gets the name of the Hobgoblin, Lefty Donovan...
But it turns out it's not the true Hobgoblin! Lefty's in cahoots with the real Hobby and his manboobs.
I'm not complaining but I'm certainly surprised.
On a date, MJ learns about Osborn's break-in and hopes Harry and Liz are alright.
Oh I love it. Depth! And her snazzy pantsuit!
She really is!
In the readers' letters, the Hobgoblin is beloved, and Aunt May is now appreciated as well. To think that a decade before then, the readers were begging for her to die...!
In #245, Spidey recaps everything to the D.A., but the latter doesn't want to help Spidey find Lefty Donovan. Of course, he would help the Avengers, but...
Hm intriguing character.
Spidey doesn't want the link between the GG and Norman to come out, since it would ruin Harry's life. He's also worried about the HG knowing his secret identity... Somehow, I doubt it, though. But I hope he does, for the drama.
At the Hobgoblin's gay little holiday house, Lefty mixes chemicals and might have gotten the result he expected, but more importantly, it exploded to his face.
Those gay ass bitches. With that hair color, I *think* I know who it is, but we'll see. Soon, the entire house explodes to not leave any trace and evidence, since the police/firefighters are sure to come quickly.
In a morgue room, Peter tries to investigate Lefty and is surprised by Betty. Hello, you! I appreciate seeing the cast again.
Cheating arc! Cheating arc! We're so back!
Throuple, throuple...!
Hmm... is there money in that bag, Jameson?
Anyway, when they get to the place...
Hahaha. Silly Betty.
It isn't long before Peter gets lost in MJ's pretty eyes... then remembers he's got a lady already. Poly, poly!!!!
You're polyamorous, Peter! It's simple!
Then we get a three weeks time skip. Three weeks is enough for Lefty to come back to his senses, leave the hospital and put on the Hobgoblin costume.
In this house, we appreciate manboobs.
Unbeknownst to him, someone's watching him and his future performance.
Spidey goes to see Snider, who does that thing I love where he unsubtly gives the file to Spidey. And that's how Spidey figures Lefty isn't the HG, at least, not the one he's looking for. However, one HG specifically asks for Peter to fight him in midtown.
The fight is short, but very well done. Of course, the one under the mask is Lefty, and when Spidey asks him who's his boss...
Lefty's soon propelled into a wall and dies.
Hmm!

HELLO CARROT!
Given how apparently I’m immune to playing OW games without recording them now, you’ll audibly hear my thoughts within the next few weeks (I’m posting tomorrow because I’m an absolute maniac), BUT I WANNA SAY THINGS HERE BECAUSE APPRECIATION CAN’T WAIT THAT LONG!
Also Merry Christmas! It’s midnight when I’m writing this, so ‘tis the day of caroling and festivities and woah. Or happy holidays if you don’t celebrate!
Back to the Our Cinderella topic, I have only played Genzou’s route as of now (I’m sure that’s hardly surprising, he is my fav), but the others are next. Their time is coming. They cannot escape. SO SPOILERS FOR GENZOU’S ROUTE!
First off, I saw you included the little dancing in front of TV Iggy pose and the joy I felt seeing it was off the charts. I kept bringing it up, I was very happy. And seeing Iggy moving about was really cool in general, even without the novelty of seeing a suggestion I made exist in the game.
NEXT UP! Genzou drunk singing is an image I didn’t know I needed, thank you for the visual and the brain food. BUT ALSO I HAVE BEEN CONNECTING JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR SONGS TO OW FOR SO LONG AND HEARING THE MUSICAL BE MENTIONED BY GENZOU THREW ME FOR A LOOP. Great musical, very nice. Last Supper reminds me of Genzou and Orlam. Judas’s voice in general reminds me of Orlam. Musicals and OW can further connect in my brain hobby drawer.
The text interactions in general were really funny, actually. I liked the absolute chaos that was Iggy and Genzou’s text conversations, I was laughing while trying to read a lot of the time. I remember the aforementioned drunk singing conversation and the puddle one both got me pretty good while I was reading, and it was overall fun to see more lighthearted conversations from the characters, even if it’s in a different universe from the main canon.
To end things off, ‘cause again 1) I haven’t finished all the game’s routes yet, and 2) you’ll be able to hear my thoughts in the moment if you choose in future anyways, I wanna mention the version of Cinderella Bucks tells at the end? I can’t get it out of my head. When I was thinking about the game after having just played it, my mind kept flashing back to CinderJesus. It absolutely decimated my brain function, but in a very fun way. More slice-of-life Bucks, please, she’s peak comedy.
Very fun game, 10/10, very sad I couldn’t buy the Kirby in the first playthrough but it’s on my to-do list, aaaand yeah! Thank you for making this! I loved every minute of it, and I’m really excited to play the remaining routes once my irl festivities are over.
sob this is so sweet! 😭💕 i'm excited to watch your playthrough too -- things are a bit overwhelming in general for me right now as i'm still with my family and doing a bunch of things, but even if i'm unable to find time this week i will for sure watch once i'm back home next week. i'm really happy that you're enjoying it so much already tho ahhhh and that you're finding it so entertaining 🥺
i'm glad you liked the poses i had so much fun with them and also using some of the suggestions to add more! and LMAO JCS is a musical i grew up watching (my parents used to play the original album in the house lol) so i get the songs stuck in my head a lot, hence why it randomly worked its way into this (among many other random silly little references or inspirations from my own life hahaha). that is extremely funny to me 🤣
i'm glad you liked the convos they were the epitome of silly. and also bucks's part hahaha. i was half-worried it would end up being too ridiculous and random for people because it just got so weird in places hahaha
thank you so much for this lovely message and all of your thoughts and for playing the game! 🥺💕 i look forward to watching the playthrough so i can see all of your reactions in real-time lakjdfs
