trying to match the jjk men's eating pace

that one tiktok trend where you try to match the pace your partner eats bite for bite

featuring gojo satoru, geto suguru, nanami kento, fushiguro toji

g. satoru

Satoru was actually shocked when you told him you were going to get as many burgers as he was, joking that he was going to have to finish your leftovers (not that he minded). everything was going smooth as he calmly unwrapped the first burger, taking a bite that didn't seem to under or over fill his mouth, giving you a false sense of security as you chewed your food like normal. panic began to set in by his third bite, practiced hands picking up a pinch of fries to add to the bite he was working on.

you weren't sure if his bites were getting bigger or if he was starting to chew faster, but before you knew it your cheeks were full and he was already crumpling the wrapper to start his second burger, taking a casual sip from his soft drink.

it was laughable, honestly, the way you were still holding half your burger, cheeks almost painfully full, sauce extending your smile, unable to match his sip of burger-filled mouth as you tried your best to hold in your laughter. satoru none the wiser. effectively making you choke on a crumb that had you keeled over, shoulders jumping with your silent chuckles.

"woah, baby. baby, slow down." His voice full of concern, unwrapping his third burger before patting your back in attempt to clear your throat.

g. suguru

suguru always savored his food no matter what it was or how many times he's eaten it. it was great, you were glad he found solace in food considering the toll his curse technique had on his body and his relationship with food. you'd never ask him to change it, but now that you've decided to partake in this silly internet challenge the rumble of your stomach has given you some regrets.

all you wanted to do was dig in, salivating at your steaming bowl of ramen. suguru sitting in front of you, a soft smile on his face as he carefully crafted a smaller ramen bowl in his soup spoon. chopsticks steady and meticulous as he let two noodles coil onto the spoon, dipping the edge of the ceramic into the soup until the noodles just barely peeked through. you sat there, noodles pinched by your chopsticks though still submerged in the broth as he slowly arranged green onions, garlic, pork, fermented bamboo shoots and strips of dried seaweed onto the utensil.

"ah, here we go." he finally said, setting his chopsticks down making you bring your noodles out of the broth and up to your mouth until he reached for a small spoon full of chili oil.

"not that hungry yet, love?" he quirked his brows at you when he noticed your creaky movements as you waited for him, finally bringing his mini bowl of ramen into his mouth, letting the flavors melt on his tongue before starting his slow chew. you followed suit, taking a bite and a sip of the broth.

"so hungry, suguru," you comedically sniffled to yourself, averting your gaze when he began repeating the process all over again.

n. kento

kento was quick skewer the contents onto his fork or scoop his rice onto his spoon, but slow to chew. he'd been excited for this meal after all, waltzing into the kitchen with a pep in his step after leaving work on time, still in his tie as he rolled up his sleeves to begin cooking. the table ending up with a beautiful spread of new dishes that caught his attention in the magazine he picked up last weekend.

unsurprising, the conversation would be about his thoughts on how all the components melded together, how one highlighted another, what it reminded him of. always a memory of a place you two went to together, then a small smile gracing his lips as he tells you that the two of you should go there again in the future. he'd ask you your thoughts, lips forming a small o as he listened to your suggestion of adding a little bit of that the next time he wanted to cook the dish.

the only thing surprising about trying to match his pace was actually how much bread he consumed, which you hadn't realized before until you felt like bursting at the seams when he picked up his forth roll-- a new recipe with his homemade garlic oil painted on top. you'd given up a while ago, choosing to enjoy the food he cooked, his love for bread unmatched. your head in your hand as you watched him chew, anyone on the outside would've assumed that he was eating out of necessity, but under your gaze you were blinded by the sparkle in his eyes as the flavors danced on his tongue. the momentary pause of his jaw as he conjured up a tweak in the recipe to bring it to the next level.

f. toji

you honestly weren't even going to try matching his pace. he devoured. the short skewers of yakitori disappearing into his mouth in an instant, the only thing able to pull you from your amazement was the soft 'ahhhh' he let out as he widened his mouth to accept the food. he barely took the time to finish chewing before bringing another skewer to his mouth. meals with toji usually ended with him running a lithe tongue over his lips, patting his stomach before eyeing whatever was left on your plate.

"gonna finish that?" he asked, hand already reaching whether you were done with your food or not.

he hummed to himself as you walked side by side just having left the restaurant.

"a branch from a sendai restaurant just popped up, want to try their gyutan with me?"

ah, toji's bottomless stomach and his love for meat.

A/N : aahhh i'm sorry toji's section is short, not much to write when the food is gone before you can even look at it LOL i just had suguru's so clearly in my mind and i had to stop myself from writing kento actually cooking. lowkey don't think i'm equipped for these mutli character posts lol

Sukuna as a House Husband

Genre: Fluff Pairing: House husband Sukuna x Reader AN: Might be OOC but humor me people. Coming up Geto as househusband 🥰

First few months of Sukuna's career as a househusband are nothing less than accidents that involved smoke alarms and questionable fire extinguisher techniques. The transition from malevolent kitchen to a less lethal one takes quite a minute.

From handing you Lunchables to becoming pinterest core this man takes quite a journey.

Everyday chores that start with ill concealed annoyance and were in the past pointedly pushed on to you are taken over the minute he notices the residues of shared lunch from another in your lunchbox.

How dare you accept someone else's food? The entire evening, Sukuna glared at the takeout pizza with enough intensity to melt the cheese. You swear the pepperoni visibly cowered under his icy gaze.

And the revelation that some random Joe- Shmoe, a pathetic nameless mortal, had lent you his lunch is enough incentive for this man get in action.

This old man has lived his share of luxury as the king of curses. So, the minute he decides to flex his culinary skills your lunches take an immediate promotion.

The obsolete cooking technique no one can replicate...? You bet he's pulling that.

Puts Uraume on the speed dial as the trials of kitchen begin for him. This time, though much to both their disappointment limited to animal meat.

Does not take long before both become grocery shopping buddies for life. Sukuna scowling at unfamiliar vegetables while Uraume patiently explains the difference between shallots and scallions to his Lord.

Weekends take a turn for the… interesting as you become their resident TikTok handler, phone propped precariously on the counter while they attempt to recreate the latest viral trends. Fruit Roll ice cream remains mind blowingly top tier in your household. Getting a reaction even from Uraume.

Sukuna preens under the praise at office potlucks, basking in the envious stares directed at your lunchbox. Every "wow" and "that looks amazing" fuels his ego.

But the real win? Insanely proud when he sees you take pictures of the lunches he makes and even more so when you show him the stories you post on the internet (save his old soul).

Deep into his retirement phase of immortality, Sukuna discovers the joy of aesthetic. This man takes one look at dark academia, gothic Victorian mood boards and not your living room looks like a lair worthy of a final boss villain (which, to be fair, it kind of already was)..

Super into thrifting or picking a random haunted piece of furniture to add character to your living space as he insists, despite your very real concerns about the wailing coming from the armchair at 3 am.

Still a baddie tho. Will get into fights with loud neighbors or bachelor pad finance bros when their trash isn't sorted properly. And it, unfortunately is your responsibility to drag this man back home.

Cleaning is where he draws the line. You will not spot Sukuna with a duster. Ever. So, hiring a cleaning service seemed like a brilliant solution. Except, Sukuna couldn't resist micromanaging their every move. The poor cleaning staff — a battle-hardened group of professionals — withered under his endless critiques on porcelain dusting techniques. Needless to say, generous tips were the only reason they continued to show up.

The King of Curses, a being who once feasted in halls of obsidian and dined on delicacies fit for gods. Yet, the peace and ownership of your little townhouse is sweeter than any other possession of past. His dirty little heart is endeared to his home with you.

You wanted to feel better so I made this for you ❤️‍🩹🩺❇️

From a mental health and survival pov, the best thing you can ever do is to say things are working in your favor or will.

You don't have to adopt any manifestation trend or technique which stresses you out or doesn't feel good. You don't have to do anything than change your perspective of what's happening around you.

Even if it's utter shit--You need to see them as changing. Even if one small thing wasn't as bad as yesterday or you at least woke up--that's something. You can have the worst week or month in the world but as long as you don't think against yourself, it's going to work out somehow. You don't need to be endlessly confident or positive. You just need to decide mentally that you're getting what you want no matter what. All hell can break loose and things can look devastating--but as long as you hold onto that, you WILL see your circumstances shift.

Take everything as a sign that things are getting better or are. Tenses don't matter.

Because we're not always feeling it. Many of us are neurodivergent and manifesting better living situations operating on zero sleep, food, stamina, and support. So holding onto faith sounds insane. However, if you've gone your entire life with that mindset, even if things got better yet you clung to negativity anyway, what have you got to lose? You've been betting against yourself your whole life. But that isn't your fault. No one believed in you or cared so you learned that faith wouldn't help you. We want to change things now. That's not always easy initially and may take a bit of time to accept. But as long as you don't commit to it not getting better, then it will. It already is.

Gratitude comes in great here. We can get so wrapped up in making things happen that we lose sight of the few good things that are working for us. That's an abundant mindset. That's being prosperous. You can still feel like you've got something going for you even when everything feels like it's going wrong. That perspective shift is going to give you a twinge of a good feeling once you cry it out, I promise. Breathe deeply through out the day and regulate your nervous system in the ways that feel natural and comfortable to you. You can acknowledge your emotions and observe your circumstances and get frustrated, depressed, etc, but still say, 'fuck it, we ball.'

Because there's a humor in it. Nothing can destroy you without your consent. And our circumstances look terrible but don't have to be. Buy that thing that's slightly over your budget. Cook yourself something small and nice that reminds you of the food you liked as a child, including nuggets. Eat cake and candy for breakfast while crying. Watch some cute animals like Moo Deng on video. I recommend creating a digital care package for your bad days and moments..even if they're constant. Make a folder on your phone, comp, tablet, etc, of everything that makes you genuinely happy. When things get dark or uncertain, I want you to look at that and feel everything you need to feel and let those emotions pass. We're strong but we're sensitive little creatures and taking care of ourselves should take the utmost priority.

As long as you don't change your mind, it's gonna have to come regardless. When you have that as a foundation, everything else just feels like a side quest/side plot that you'll feel more neutral towards. Circumstances won't seem so threatening. That perspective shift goes a long way and it helps your mental health like a cushion. Then that's when flickers of optimism spark and positivity will run like a current beneath everything. You don't have to be in a good mood or have a good day to manifest what you want. You just have to decide that you'll get it.

You will :)

🔥 authentic versions of food

This is from an American perspective, which I do think matters cuz otherwise this might get misinterpreted. But the hunt for "authentic" food is a shitty ass game a lot of people use to be racist, especially towards Chinese American foods. I know in our circles it's a common opinion, but in the larger food community "not authentic" is a way white people shit on a lot of restaurants that are non white cultures who had to adapt their home cuisine to what ingredients were available and palatable to American tastes. This is used to keep places like these seen as dirty, unhealthy, and are supposed to be cheap. Ie Italian food is seen as this extreme luxury where you get charged $25 for a pasta you could make yourself spending $5 at Walmart, no specialized equipment or time, whereas a variety of family owned Chinese Restaurants have to put such a level of detail into every step (some places slaughter their own chickens) to be considered acceptable and are still criticized for charging more than like $11 for a mountain of food.

On the flip side, there's such a big trend of celebrity chefs taking another culture's food and bastardizing it so much that it's nothing like the original dish. You especially see this whenever Jamie Oliver decides up the task of like, anything really, he always wants to make things "healthy" and then makes the worst meal possible using bad cooking techniques that can ruin your cookware or make extra cleaning, where as if he did like 10 minutes of research he'd find there are easier, healthy versions of said dish that already exist created by the home cultures chefs already. It's sad because it's once again a way to teach people about other food cultures and other ways of cooking, but instead we often get these celeb chefs pushing out "content" to feed the machine that has no value in the food world.

So my mc is married to barbatos and they eventually adopt Luke could you write a fic about it :) <3

I could most def try, but I am gonna apologize in case it’s not really the best

I also would like to apologize on how short the fanfiction is in general I couldn’t think of a lot.

Barbatos X reader

Warning: None just fluff

Luke has opened his mind a lot more in the Devildom, it was all thanks to you, Barbatos, Simeon and Solomon that he was able to.

Luke was able to bond with you due to the fact that you managed to shield Luke in order to protect him from Lucifer’s anger.

Ever since then, Luke has been following you around. He often asks you for your personal opinion on his clothes, essays, baking techniques and desserts. He's created in the kitchen.

Luke often loves to invite you over for lunch, he looks up to you as a person and thinks you’re extremely brave. He seeks your input in things, even if he never admits it.

With Barbatos he at first never trusted him in general. Barbatos makes him feel uncomfortable. He deemed Barbatos untrustworthy.

However Simeon pushed him to go ask Barbatos for advice for baking. Luke eventually caved in because he looked up to Simeon.

Once Luke did seek out advice from Barbatos he was extremely fidgety and trying to put his words together clearly embarrassed asking help from a demon. Barbatos with a smile took Luke under his wing and began to teach him tricks for baking.

Luke was extremely happy to be learning more and more with the help of Barbatos. Luke often seeked his help. Thanks to Barbatos, Luke was able to open his mind towards others especially since he was from a society that hates demons and that are closed minded.

Because you were married to Barbatos you were often invited to Barbatos baking lessons with Luke. Luke was extremely joyful to see you arriving as a surprise guest.

These were small interactions while the three of you silently cooked and baked, Barbatos always gave you a small smile and kissed your cheek while Luke was focused on stirring.

The three of you all began to hang out constantly, sometimes Luke would invite you both to tea parties or Barbatos would invite you both to play a simple board game. You can tell he was fond of you both.

These exchanges were daily and appreciated.

.

.

.

One day Luke was roaming the halls of RAD. He was overhearing students talk about a new board game, it was apparently pretty fun and a new trend.

Luke now with new determination decided to go to the Devildom streets and go into the shop to buy the game.

Except one problem,

“Hey Luke!”

Luke jumped as he quickly turned around to face you.

You gave him a small smile,

“Hey MC!” Luke said in a complete panic, he didn’t want you and Barbatos knowing about this exchange, he wanted it to be secret for your board game night on Friday.

“Where are you headed?” You asked.

Luke now in a complete panic, he can’t lie to you but he didn’t want to worry or give you any clues.

“Well I was going to go shopping pretty quickly.” He frowned.

“Wow, can I come with you? It’s been a while since I went. It would be perfect for sight seeing too!”

“No. You mustn’t, I wanted to go alone!” Luke said while his face turned red.

You just giggled and nodded completely understanding everything. You gave him a quick pat on the head and walked away.

.

.

.

When Friday finally came you and Barbatos were setting everything up for Luke to arrive, the problem was you both couldn’t agree on a board game.

Barbatos’s ideas were too complicated and pretty much put the bored in board games.

Eventually while you both were arguing over which to play Luke came smiling. You both immediately stopped to greet him. You smiled at him, patting his head then hugging him.

But you noticed Luke carrying something?

“Hey Luke what’s that?”

“Oh, well I was overhearing demons in RAD talk about this new game, so the other day I went to go see and grab it so we can play. Is that all right?” Luke’s face was all bright red not knowing what to expect as he looked away.

Your heart couldn’t handle that much cuteness.

You and Barbatos looked at eachother and it was then decided silently.

…

Eventually while you three were playing one of the Little Ds came into view and saw you three playing.

“Wow how cute you all look like a family!” It smiled.

Luke immediately blushed and exploded yelling, you and Barbatos eventually both laughed and started teasing him that you both are gonna adopt him.

Considering the "march of technology" in Clan culture and the span of time between Thunder and, say, Briarlight -- is Briarlights mobility device more advanced than we give it credit for or is Thunder's prosthetic, like, incredibly simplistic? Literally a leg-shaped stick? Or is the progression of accessability options over time less of an upward trend? Would knowledge wax and wane depending on the era and how tolerant Clan culture is of the disabled at the time?

Did advanced techniques like weaving, leathermaking, or cooking exist back in BB!DOTC or are they developed over the following decades?

They developed over the ensuring decades, but cooking and leatherwork both come from Tribe culture! When the Sundrown Patrol shacks back up with them in TNP, many generations later, they are actually going to find that Tribal leatherwork is more advanced than Clan leatherworking, and they also cook their food

(Crowfoot smugly glances at Squirrelpaw like "look it's that thing you don't do, wormbelly")

Park Cats don't make tools like this, by the way. They had no need or desire. Before the destruction of the Park, the humans provided everything in terms of trash cans, kibble handouts, so on. Individual groups would fight for landmarks, but resources were more based around food and recreation, not crafting reagents.

There's a point where Thunder Storm ends up making friends with River Ripple, not knowing he's a prince or even speaking the same language, just because he hands him a hot, roasted mouse.

The leg prosthetic is basically a leg-shaped stick with "good leather" by the standards of the time, strapped to his nub. I drew him once without the prosthetic, if you want to see what he's got. There's a teeeeeny weenie bit of leg below the knee.

But anyway yes knowledge waxes and wanes. Wildfur's mobility device was super unique and built on BloodClan contribution, Littlecloud and Cinderpelt had a little adventure going to Chelford for ideas. Briarlight's is SHOCKINGLY advanced and a testament to Jessie's genius, but built on what Cinder and Little had already invented.

been watching a lot of masterchef lately and i've picked up on an episode editing trend i like to call "one last good day for the dog", wherein you can tell immediately who's going home at the critiques because they've fucked up something really serious in the kitchen but all of the critics are being so, so nice to them. "oh, but he's done such a lovely sauce." "but what he's given us - he's such an excellent cook, all his techniques are there." this person will never, ever, ever have a single negative critique shown in the episode where they go home. it hurts too much to acknowledge it. everyone critiquing the dish is doing it with the tone of voice of someone who knows the poor fella's next trip in the car is going to be to the vet's. one last good day for the dog.
