“But there’s still time, it’s not too late // Nothing will change until I change”

Guysssssssss I love Maru SOOOO much you don’t even know. It’s hard for me to pick favorite bachelors/bachelorettes bc I do genuinely love them all (Harvey only wins by a MARGIN and that’s just bc he’s just like me fr) but Maru is literally so high up for me I’m always so intimidated about romancing her bc she’s just so cool! But also CA…can we talk about the bob. Why did you give her a BOB! She would not have a bob I’m sorry I had to change that. Anyways she’s my favorite cutie patootie I had SO much fun drawing her honestly 🫶

Not to brag or nothing (lie) but I made noodles tonight and the boys keep telling their game night buddy that like, this is why whenever him and the other game night guy offer to pick up takeout on the way over, they keep telling them "But Briar offered to cook!" My downstairs roommate keeps being like "I eat like this almost every night"

Feels really nice.

imo every single member of team minato could be placed in the "standing alone in your kitchen with all the lights off cuz you couldnt be bothered to turn them on face illuminated by the microwave as you half warm up a terrible meal you're going to be eating over the sink" scenario. because they all are pathetic.

Employee of the Month

really, i dont think half of this should be taken seriously, HOWEVER:

I think loverboy's peakest babygirl moment in all of his career should be singlehandedly getting pantalone to invent the concept of "employee of the month" for the sole reason of having a workplace excuse to spoil and praise him without raising suspicion. 👀 Which I'll set in the timeline Before pantalone becomes the harbinger, and is just a fairly high ranking official at present.

(theres like a whole backstory ive cooked up that my moot is currently writing now so this entire post might make a lot more sense after my requested fic is out lmao)

like yeah,, pantalone eventually does come to realize and notice that Hmmm! This one man is a particularly diligent worker! His excellent workplace charm and wet puppy eyes have captivated me !

Perhaps a little shy to praise.

(lil bro is actively trying to avoid the spotlight in such a line of work)

Celestia knows how many hundreds of fatui are trained and raised in the soldiers way 🙄 With the Tsaritza's mercy the organization will rarely happen upon a handful of sparkly-eyed new recruits that can actually be COMPETENT with the brunt of the logistics, diplomacy and theoretical PAPERWORK that keeps the fatui running.

God knows that harbingers like Pantalone, Pulcinella, and occasionally Arlecchino NEED subordinates behind desks rather than on the field.

So the idea comes to pantalone on a fine sunny day with a stroke of genius !

because the work environment under each harbinger is so Different, you could categorize pantalone to (relatively) have the safest, and most boring work imaginable.

Definitely in which case, job motivation is very..... low. Well not anymore apparently,, in comes loverboy, newly enrolled in the fatui

with a personal vendetta against risking his precious life on the field, who damn well MAKES SURE his work merits and skills direct him towards a cushy job with good pay. and that eventually catches pantalone's attention, whos like

Wow! I wonder how i can get myself to play favorites in my department in broad daylight without it being suspicious... Hmmm...

And then on the first day of the upcoming month, out goes a notice to every subordinate, manager, accountant, secretary and etc etc, about a brand new system set in place! and would you look at that:

Loverboy nearly digs a hole and buries himself on the spot out of embarrassment when he sees a nice framed photo of him hung up at the Northland bank's noticeboard with nice bold letters saying

"Fatuus of the Month"

followed by a nice motivational speech by pantalone that goes a little too into loverboy's personal quirks rather than his excellent contributions to the bank.

Really, it might've only been a little over 1.5 years into his mandated fatui service, but he's already been sent off with a neat bonus.... a small material gift that pantalone bought him, and a strong surge of interest from his fellow colleagues/comrades.

So much for trying to avoid the spotlight :P

also pspsppspsps @eluxcastar would you like some loverboy thoughtposting

[theloveinc]

this is me reminding you bc is shinso also a pro BC IMAGINEEEEE

No because he's already spinning around in my microwave brain like a frozen lasagna and YES HE ABSOLUTELY IS A PRO!!! Showing up at your house all raggedly looking at 6am to get your daughter when he said he'd be able to pick her up before 5pm the damn night previous.

He knows you're not... seriously mad at him when you answer the door with a glare, but you're definitely peeved at his usual excuse of "something came up, the commission ended up needing me all night."

"Yeah, well," is what you want to say, "your daughter with insomnia needed you, too."

Except before you can scald him with the words, the little girl is waddling outside from behind you still in her nighty and straight into his arms, and it truly is hard to be mad at him when he scoops her right up into his arms (have they gotten beefier?) and apologizes to her with a kiss.

(And then you have to invite him in for breakfast because it was already on the stove, and then you have to wait with him because she needs to repack her bag, and then he's standing there awkwardly in your living room, his old place, like he's not currently staying in an almost-dumpster of an apartment, save for your daughter's little room, AND HE'S RUBBING THE BACK OF HIS NECK AND TRYING NOT TO LOOK YOU IN THE EYE because it's not only a reminder of what he lost but also you'll be able to tell, you can always tell, that he hasn't really been sleeping much because... he constantly feels like he needs to justify the fact that he chose work over you and his little girl and, and, and, and then she's finally appearing with her plastic backpack ready to go and he can't bring himself to properly say goodbye as he leaves as if to pretend he'll be back soon, good riddance!!!!!)

But that's how it always goes between you, and hurts even worse because neither of you are sure if your three year old actually knows (realizes?) that you aren't together anymore. I mean, his hours as a hero were weird even when she was first born and things were still good, so it's not like this is unusual to her.

(Shinso anticipates losing himself when she finally starts noticing that you only kiss her goodbye, when she starts registering who isn't home, when she starts asking questions about it, and when the answers finally start to make her cry.)

...

He relates to the notion. The thought of losing his family makes him want to cry, too... hence why he lets you make the majority of the decisions about her well-being and tries to stay out of your way (he figures you might need him again if she inherits his quirk)...

(You'd never know it, at least... he hopes, but he does appreciate his job for allowing him to take his frustrations out on the underground criminals he's tasked with catching, but. That's for another time).

...even if the whole thing hurts him more than he could ever begin to say.

Face Cards Date Night - D*mon's Indoor Cooking Returns

Almost Blorbo Tagged but stopped myself

Eh. Decided to put it under a cut. A little scene/headcanon exoansion

They're truly working with him to improve his indoor cooking skills because he's so good at cooking over an open flame either a campfire or charcoal grill and while using very limited ingredients that at least SOME of that skill has to be able to transfer if they just Keep Trying.

(My headcanon will have to be ripped from my cold dead fingers. I refuse to acknowledge that he's bad at cooking full stop. Not in my AUs he isn't!)

He's doing alright getting adjusted to cooking over a gas burner, though there's been a few close calls where the building could have blown sky high had someone decided to light up.

A month ago, during George's last visit, they all worked on sous vide to try and expand his skill set in a sort of set it and forget it way. There's some kind of gadget that heats and monitors the temperature itself and adjusts accordingly. It's all a matter of prep and just keeping an eye on it (they can never be too careful when D*mon is cooking).

D*mon does great! The steak comes out and the piece that he tries tastes fantastic! Chib*dee and George each try a piece too and agree before walking off to set the table.

It's just missing a sear really.

Now, he's still on watch from the last Gas Incident and he forgot to start the grill earlier for this step.... he turns and sees the microwave and thinks back to the last time he heated a leftover cinnamon roll. If it can make fire then it can probably sear...

When Chib*dee realizes that the sound he's hearing is the microwave he knows it's already too late and facepalms with a groan- "Oh No."

George turns to him with a raised brow and a curious expression before he also picks up on what has happened and brushes his bangs up out of his face with a long suffering sigh.

They walk into the kitchen where D*mon is leaned against the counter next to the microwave. Chib*dee goes in for a bear hug to distract him while George rescues the steak as best he can.

D*mon realizes his error after trying another piece.

Chib*dee makes the wood jokes - replacing titties with ass - and George has resigned himself to eating his entire portion because as badly as it turned out, D*mon still made it for him and he's never going to turn down or waste something Chib*dee or D*mon makes for him.

(I love the trope of a character ALWAYS eating their partners cooking not matter how terrible it is and I just find it very funny to throw that on George - because I feel like he is a foodie and a bit of a pedant about it, but that his chivalry runs so much deeper and always wins out. He has eaten so many questionable things since they started their relationship and he will be doing so for the foreseeable future.)

After dinner Chib*dee finally convinces George to try a slow cooker meal with D*mon instead. Tomorrow night will be Crock Pot Roast and potatoes.
