#Tree nuts for Cinderella

So this post introduced me to posters for Wish that I hadn't seen before and BUCKLE UP FOLKS CAUSE I'M ABOUT TO GO NUTS
Tumblr media
REFERENCES GALOOOOORRRRE! There's Rapunzel's lanterns reflected on the water as well as her sun symbol painted on the cottage pillars, Moana's (Te Fiti's heart) spiral on the rocks to the left, a racoon and the partridges which I chose to believe are a Snow White reference (of course the racoon could be Meeko from Pocahontas, too.) The flower resembles the Sundrop flower (with the wrong amount of petals and no glow.) There's also a carving on the rocks just below the cottage, but I can't make out what the carving is. Can you?
Tumblr media
EVEN MORE REFERENCES GALORE AND FOLKS I'M GONNA SCREAM! In Wish bubbles at the top of the screen we have: the Elephant Graveyard from The Lion King; Ariel from The Little Mermaid; an unknown for certain man standing at a ship's wheel, possibly Eric; Sleeping Beauty's dress; an unknown scene that looks like water; Be Prepared from the Lion King (the crescent moon finale); a figure with a staff or a flag, maybe Radcliffe from Pocahontas?; Gaston, flexing; and someone reaching out for what looks like the moon, sitting on something that looks vaguely like a fish (Aladdin? Quasimodo? Milo in Atlantis?)
BELOW the Wish orbs, though, we've got Disney Villain props all tossed around! At the back worktable we see Dr. Facilier's hat, next to a Sundrop flower, and a rack of antlers and fur that I'm gonna take as a Gaston reference. On the front worktable we have the Poison Apple from Snow White, some Tarot cards of Facilier's, bottled polyps from Ursula's lair, and in the stacks of scrolls below we can see Judge Claude Frollo's hat.
Tumblr media
Aladdin's lamp and Bruno's ruana are sitting on a rock to the right, and between them are colorful bugs from The Lion King! The trees have faces which made me think of Grandmother Willow but not sure fully. Up at the top we can see a silhouette of Lumiere on one of the branches, and a racoon holds Chip the teacup! The owl and bluebirds are of course typical "princess in the forest" companions and I'll let you draw your own conclusions, but we also have Bambi and Faline (both adults) in the background! One of the chipmunks in the foreground holds a piece of broken green stone like the kind that stores Bruno's visions, right above a turtle that I'm certain is a Snow White reference! Also, the flowers covered in visible dewdrops as well as the mushrooms remind me of "The Nutcracker Suite" animations in Fantasia!
Tumblr media
And last (and with the least references I could find,) on the left we have one of Belle's books sitting on the steps! A farmer with the giant pumpkin that might have been Cinderella's carriage has just gone past in the background, and Simba's symbol from The Lion King can be seen on the opposite side of the steps, close to the yellow pinwheel. The two children are sitting on a pirate ship under two stars... maybe the Second Star to the Right? The last woman on the right has a pattern on her vase that I can't quite make out, and Valentino has a dandelion in his mouth (my first impression is the dandelions that Belle holds while singing her I Want song, but I could be wrong!)
Did I miss any references? Can you spot any that I didn't see? Please let me know!

This still is from 'The Singing Ringing Tree' which was made in East Germany in 1957 and, as I remember it, broadcast by the BBC as a series for children in the 1970s. I found the fairy tale of a spoilt princess who was turned into an ugly wench until she redeemed herself, the prince who morphed into a bear after being tricked by the evil dwarf, and the weird golden fish swimming about in the moat, absolutely riveting. I watched it at my Grandma's house in Bradford, which made the experience even more special and memorable. In the 1990s, I went to see 'The Singing Ring Tree' as a full length film at the cinema in Brixton and I now own it on DVD. Of course, watching it as an adult is completely different. The special effects and stage set are crap, but a child's imagination doesn't need fancy special effects. To my young eyes, this programme was magical.
Another favourite was 'Three Wishes for Cinderella' or 'Three Little Nuts for Cinderella' (original title: 'Tři oříšky pro Popelku'). It was a Czechoslovakian-East German film made in 1973, and if I remember rightly, it was serialised into weekly episodes and broadcast in the late 1970s by the BBC around teatime. The main character was really pretty; she was boyish as a peasant girl, and beautiful as a princess. She discovered a tree house which had an owl inside and some magical acorns which, when she cracked them open, contained a beautiful dress that she could go to balls in and meet her handsome prince. She rode a horse and she could use a bow and arrow, there were snowy landscapes and the overall effect was mesmerising.
I was fortunate to watch a lot of good quality telly when I was a child which instilled in me a sense of magic and wonder. I don't have kids of my own (thank goodness!), but if I did I would make sure they watched loads of children's TV that I watched when I was a child.

At the beginning of Disenchanted when Giselle is saying bye to all her new york animal friends, I get so sad, because I’m so attached to the animals who visit my garden, and when someone ever suggests selling, not only do I feel the house itself is part of the family, but I immediately think 'but what would the animals think? We can’t leave them’. 
Because I love my blackbird couple (they even left their fledgling in a small tree beside me this summer, which was such amazing trust), and our beautiful ring neck doves who sit on the window while I write and watch me work, and the greedy if a little dim woodpigeons (I call them all Greedy GusGus because it’s what they are), and our hedge sparrows and house sparrows, and then there’s our Mr Robin, and we have our one magpie (he’s the only one who ever visits, and I always recognise him in the street because he’s oddly different to the rest in the way he behaves), and then we have our hedgehog and a fox, and our field mice (when I had an outdoor cat, I had to rescue so many by scooping them up and putting them back in the grass, that I was like ‘I have now reached Cinderella Status’) and there is a bank vole, and then we have our one squirrel who I adore because he runs around so happily just playing and then he eats the nuts I leave him, but then he sits in the little olive tree eating all the olives off the branches too, and he runs in every day with things he’s found and buries them in my plant pots. I talk to them, and I sit with them all in summer, and every morning when I take out the food for them all, they all sit on the trellis and branches and plant pots and watch me and tweet at me....and I’d feel really sad leaving them behind, like they’re extended family essentially. 
So yeah, it just makes me quite sad that opening scene. Like, you’re leaving your pigeons, Giselle, what are you doing????

Cinderella September-through-November: "Tři oříšky pro Popelku" ("Three Wishes for Cinderella"), 1973 Czech/German film
Tumblr media
The Czech title of this film literally translates as "Three Nuts for Cinderella," but in English-speaking countries it's titled Three Wishes for Cinderella, or occasionally Three Gifts for Cinderella. But whatever it's called, this unique Cinderella retelling is beloved throughout Eastern, Northern and Central Europe. Because it takes place in snowy winter landscapes, it traditionally airs on TV at Christmastime and is as much of a Christmas classic in Europe as It's A Wonderful Life or Miracle on 34th Street are in America.
The plot is a variation on the Grimms' Aschenputtel, but in a Czech setting and with an assortment of creative twists. Here we meet a free-spirited, nature-loving tomboy Cinderella, who used to ride and hunt with her late father, and whose strong will hasn't been broken by the abuse of her Stepmother and stepsister Dora. Her life's saving grace is her close bond with animals: particularly a flock of doves that helps her to sort dried peas and corn grains at her Stepmother's command, a mysterious owl who is implied to have some magical powers, and her beloved white horse, on whose back she steals moments of freedom in the woods. It's there that she meets the Prince, a fellow mischievous free spirit who constantly evades his stuffy tutor to go hunting with his friends. It's no conventionally romantic meeting though, as the cheeky girl throws a snowball at him to stop him from shooting a deer, leading to a chase and an exchange of teasing insults, but then earns his respect by "borrowing" and successfully riding his own unruly horse.
Soon afterward, as in the Grimms' tale, Cinderella receives the gift of a hazel-twig, in this version from a friendly manservant. On this twig are three hazelnuts. And here, Cinderella discovers the story's main source of magic: each time she drops a hazelnut on the floor, it opens to reveal elegant clothing for her. In this way, the film seems to combine the Grimms' Aschenputtel and its magic hazel tree with the similar tale of Donkeyskin or All-Kinds-of-Fur, in which a disguised princess keeps three gowns hidden in nutshells. The first nut contains a men's hunting suit, in which Cinderella disguises herself as a boy and impresses the Prince with her crossbow skills at a royal hunt. The second nut contains gives her a ballgown, silver slippers, and a veil for her face that prevents both her stepfamily and the Prince from recognizing her. After she leaves the ball with a cryptic riddle about her real identity (again, similar to some versions of Donkeyskin/All-Kinds-of-Fur), the Prince follows her all the way home, and straight away begins trying the slipper on her fellow servant girls and neighbors. But the Stepmother catches Cinderella sneaking into the house, ties her up and steals her finery to disguise Dora as the "princess." The trick fails, however, and Cinderella escapes from confinement and obtains the third hazelnut's gift: a wedding gown, in which she rides forth to claim her slipper and her bridegroom.
Compared to the Disney or Rodgers and Hammerstein Cinderellas that American children grow up with, this Cinderella is subdued and down-to-earth. The magical aspect is understated, and the look and feel isn't of a fairy-tale land, but of an actual 15th century Czech countryside, with most of the costumes in muted earth tones and only the royal family and their social circle in bright colors. The royal hunt scene also features some "values dissonance" with the shooting of a fox, which by modern American standards is disturbing to watch. But the film has its own unique charm, with its beautiful snow-covered landscapes, its lilting musical score by Karel Svoboda, its blend of gentle humor and sincerity, and its vivid characterizations, particularly of the heroine herself.
Libuše Šafránková's Cinderella winsomely combines a feisty, sassy personality with genuine girlish innocence and vulnerability to make us root for her. She's well matched by Pavel Trávníček as her handsome, lively Prince, who starts off as a bit of a royal brat, but is humbled by his princess-to-be without losing his mischievous nature. (Another interaction or two might have helped their arc of "playful rivals to lovers" feel more fully developed, though, or maybe just a longer ball scene. Likewise, at the climax it would have been nice to actually see Cinderella escape from her room, instead of just the discarded rope and open window after the fact.) Carola Braunbock's haughty, imposing Stepmother and the rest of the supporting cast all make the most of their roles too.
If you want to see a unique Cinderella with folksy Old World charm, and yet a surprisingly "modern," spunky version of the heroine, or if you just want to explore European Christmas traditions, including the popular movies, then this film is a must for you!

I know you said "thirsts" but can I do cutes instead?
I was looking for Rock Lee fanart to share and I found a beautiful picture of Rock Lee and Gaara going to the Disney Parks (#13 in this collection on Pixiv).
So I've got some ideas about the two of them going to Disney World (the Florida one since that's the one I have experience with):
~Lee is the biggest Disney fan ever. He's the one buying them matching shirts/hats before they even leave for vacation. Gaara, meanwhile, is the one meticulously planning everything. (Hotel, transportation, meal reservations, etc.)
~Lee insists on wearing the shirts on the way there, and informs Gaara that he looks adorable in the red and white polka dots about every ten minutes.
~They arrive at their hotel in the early afternoon (Polynesian Resort - so Lee can ride the monorail every day and Gaara can enjoy the use of plants in the decor), then head for the parks.
~They do Epcot first (they want to devote a full day to Magic Kingdom). Gaara loves Living With The Land, and rides it multiple times while admiring the greenhouses and the different technologies and techniques shown for growing plants. Lee, meanwhile, goes nuts designing his car before getting on Test Track, adjusting the curves of the shell and the power of the engine until the very last second.
~They're both entralled by IllumiNations* (the fireworks show). Gaara almost cries. Lee full on sobs.
~They spend a full week exploring the resort, and each day they go to a different place.
~Gaara's favorite park ends up being Animal Kingdom because he loves being surrounded by nature, though his favorite ride remains Living With The Land.
~Lee's is Magic Kingdom because it's full of the spirit of youth. He likes all of the rides pretty much equally, but his favorite thing period is meeting the different Princesses.
~They take so many pictures. Lee's favorite is the two of them holding each other in front of Cinderella Castle, Gaara's is in front of the Tree of Life.
~Lee gets chocolate all over his face while trying to eat a Mickey Bar before it melts. Gaara thinks it's adorable.
~They absolutely don't want to leave once their vacation ends, and Lee secures a promise from Gaara that they'll come back again someday.
omg that was so cute to read, my smile grew bigger and bigger through the entire thing 🥺
i've only been once to disneyland in paris, so i have no clue what disney world is, but if it's anything similar to that then, ahhhh they'd be so precious during the rides and while taking pictures. i just know lee puts his hands up into the air and screams "yeaaaah!" during every more 'intense' ride and gaara is just subtly shaking his head and smiling 😭💛

In a previous ask, you said you have a lot of thoughts about Miche and his hobbies! Would you care to indulge us? 🥺
I had a feeling this ask was coming and I'm so very glad it's here 😍
these are just, like, mundane, slice-of-life kind of headcanons. all over the place, what my brain cooks up.
Eclectic music taste but his number one genre is electronica of different kinds. like old school Tiesto all the way to a dubstep phase when that came out. ("This stuff is actually pretty good.") Would be alone in his car listening to Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites and do the "Yes, oh my god!"
Animal lover, especially dogs and reptiles. Would have been the dude in highschool with a snake or tree frogs or something.
Plays d&d, is either an orc or some kind of custom animal class (like tabaxi but better fit for his needs).
also plays Magic the Gathering, sorry not sorry.
really is just a big, weird nerd, but is usually pretty quiet about it.
cliché but will go nuts for anything and anyone who smells good. His s/o is not the only person he'd buy perfume/soap/lotion for. Erwin has received many a bottle of cologne as gifts.
drinks sugar free Red Bull (gross)
is a fairly quiet person, but sometimes if he's had a particularly good day or has drank a couple of those nasty Red Bulls, he is capable of talking your fucking ear off. Like so that he'll start repeating himself on accident then be like, "Wait, did I already tell you that?" yes bby slow down pls.
Very much into anything Dick Wolf lmao. If you're watching SVU together, he'll glance at you and do the dramatic "dun dun" at the beginning of every episode.
Keeps a bottle of the perfume you used to wear when you first met just to take a whiff and reminisce. There isn't anything wrong with the relationship now, but smelling it will instantly bring a smile to his face and give him butterflies.
Does the thing all guys do when they shave. Get rid of everything but the mustache then peek out and be like, "Babe, what if I just left it like this?"
For real either drives a white Wrangler or a white Mercedes G Series depending on what he does for a living.
The type to leave toothpaste in the sink 🙄
Sometimes pulls you into an impromptu slow dance and hums So This is Love from Cinderella in your ear, all low and rumbly. No real reason for that song. It was just stuck in his head one day, and he went with it.
okay that's all for now 😘

Down The Rabbit Hole
Xiao De Jun (M)
Tumblr media
🎃Happy Halloween,everyone.🎃
*gif credits to owner
*masterlist is pinned at blog.
warnings : unprotected sex, high sex, choking.
Alice in distress,
may the Cheshire cat be blessed.
Community service your mom said, it’ll be great for publicity, which is all she cares about. Your mom is the part of the community of your neighborhood, and let’s just say she loves fulfilling her duties so much that it’s become an obsession of hers to be seen on the local papers for the activities she attend, something like a minor celebrity. Sadly, the moms here all love her, your mom wanted to work a reputation up, since your father left her for someone younger, your mother needed something else to fill the emptiness and lack of accomplishment she’s felt because of him. Hence why you’re trekking in the forest of your town, trying to pick up as much rubbish as you could that were thrown by irresponsible hikers.
“This is all you fault Y/N, if it weren’t for you, we won’t be stuck in this shitty hike in such a cold weather.”
Becca was part of the so called ‘friend group’ of this neighborhood of yours that your mom forced you to make friends with just because she was friends with her mom. You don’t bother answering her nor the deathly glares from her clique to you, you didn’t have any real friends in this town, other than one or two boys you played games with.
It was until the middle of the hike when your mom called for a break, the community members all started to sit down and have a picnic.
“Remember to clean up after yourselves,” your mom said.
You chewed on a sandwich you packed begrudgingly, wishing you had hot food instead, cursing at yourself for not packing food into a thermos. When you finished, you decided to venture further away on your own, unable to stand the not so silent whispers behind your back. You decided to sit underneath a sturdy looking oak tree that looked older than any other tree here. Once you leant back, your back started falling, for some reason, the stem of the tree opened up and swallowed you in, the hole you fell in closing as you fell deeper into the hole. You didn’t scream, you were too scared, you knew you would be dead once you hit ground, so you closed your eyes and waited.
Instead of hitting ground, you fell into something that felt softer than cotton, with a blue glow like the clouds on the sky. Were you dead? You looked around, you were still in the forest, but the forest looked different here. Were these the unexplored parts of the hill?
“How graceful, Alice has nothing on you, sweetheart.”
You screamed, trying to get out of the ‘cloud’, but all you could do was trash in it because of how it’s too soft and big.
“Easy, don’t panic. I’m right here.”
Suddenly, a man around your age appeared next to you, his smile bright and somewhat familiar looking. That’s when the memory came back to you.
“You’re just like the Cheshire cat in Wonderland. Where am I? And who are you?”
“You’re in the other side of the forest, or the whole world, depends on how you see your position geographically. I’m Xiao De Jun, but you can call me Xiao Jun, and I’m a fairy. Oh and another detail? I eat humans.”
“Wait what? What do you mean the other side? What do you mean fairies eat humans?”
“Well, let’s just say fairies aren’t all Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella, those stories are told just to induce naive humans like you to fall in our traps. But you’re a pretty one, and you didn’t scream like a darned banshee just now, I might just keep you.”
“Keep me? Get us out of this thing, who said I was an object?!”
“I’ll get us out once we reach my palace, now hold on tight sweetheart, and please don’t scream like a mad woman, or I’ll eat you up in a gulp like the others.”
Xiao Jun booped your nose with his index finger before he leant back with an cynical smile on his face. The cloud floated up high, letting you see the scenery below you clearly. There were cities just like the human world, but instead of metal and blocks, these were held up by wood and magic, because there was no way a building as tall as the Eiffel Tower require no bolts and nuts, and you doubt its transparent like bubble had any glass panes.
"It’s beautiful.”
“It’s nothing compared to the beautiful lady beside me.”
You could feel your cheeks heating up at his flirty remarks. You quickly thought up of something to divert the topic, not being used to receiving compliments out of the blue.
“You said you have a palace? Are you a prince?”
“I’m a king, my father just passed away.”
“I’m sorry to hear that, Xiao Jun.”
“For a human you’re quite sentimental, cleaning the forest, not threatening to kill me even though you have a knife in your pocket, and not screaming at me like a mad woman. You’re quite different from what I expected.”
“What do you...
“That’s our stop, less chatter and get a move on, or no mint chocolate ice cream for you.”
Calling Xiao Jun weird would be an understatement, his personality was like a cross of between Marry Poppins and Willy Wonka, and his palace was nothing far from that either, fortress painted with pastel tones, and that fountain was definitely chocolate, the windows looked like panes of thin candy, while the draw bridge was shaped like a milk cracker. The swimming pool at the back looked like it was filled with different flavours of fanta.
“Are you the witch from Hansel and Gretel?”
“Do I look like an old hag?”
Instead of entering from the main entrance, the cloud took you to the back of the castle where there was a balcony which overlooked the pool and the garden. Once you landed, the cloud disappeared beneath you, but Xiao Jun’s quick reflexes caught you before you fell on your butt.
“Welcome to my chambers. I forgot to ask for your name sweetheart.”
“Y/N,” you said as breathlessly, still in shock from your near fall.
Xiao Jun’s room was huge, the walls were mint green while the furniture were all made of dark oak with gold accents, just like his favourite ice cream flavour. You looked up to see a beautiful chandelier that defied the laws of gravity. The candles as well as the whole structure of the chandelier was shaped like an overturned tiered cake, each tier turning at its own pace with different colours flickering on the candles. The bed was just like the cloud you travelled on, just bigger and in a shade of pastel pink that made it look like cotton candy.
“You must really like your sweets.”
“The only human food that actually tastes good. Make yourself comfortable, it’s not like you’re leaving.”
“What do you mean?”
“I’m keeping you.”
“You can’t do that! I don’t belong to you!”
“It’s written in the stars that you’ll be my queen, and I don’t have to force you. You’re going to stay.”
“Why would you know that?”
“Because I’ve been watching you and your fate in our stars, you lead an unhappy life in the mortal world, living like a balloon which lost its string, wandering aimlessly, slowly deflating just like your personality. When was the last time you truly enjoyed yourself without your mother giving you disapproving looks? What happened to your dream of being a writer? What happened when you said you wanted to go out for your birthday? What happened when you told her about your anxiety? Oh right, she called you a freak.”
Xiao Jun wasn’t shouting the words in your face, in fact it was gentle like an angel’s singing, yet what he said drizzled into your heart like sweet poison. You let out a chocked sob, you felt naked under his scrutinisation. Xiao Jun observed your life under a microscope, knowing you better than yourself.
“How do you know all of this?”
“I’ll show you.”
Xiao Jun wiped your tears with his expensive button up, the tears making the blue silk turn inky black. He then took your hand in his, guiding you out of his room into a room down the same hallway. Compared to the other odd looking fancy doors, this was bare of any jewels or gold. Xiao Jun turned the knob and led you in the dimly lit room, the room only had a large mirror with red candles on its sides.
“Show me, Lee Hyenji.”
That was your mother’s name.
The mirror flickered a few times before showing you the image of your mother.
“Where is that dumb girl? Always day dreaming and never getting things done. Wandering on her own, I’m just waiting for the day she leaves me like that useless father of hers.”
“Show me Becca Park.”
“I’m soo glad she’s lost, we don’t need to deal with her just to make our mothers happy anymore. She didn’t like hanging out with us anyways.”
Xiao Jun’s eyes flickered to yours to see your reaction, instead of holding sadness like he thought it would’ve been, your eyes were empty, the images on the mirror reflecting in your eyes like shadows in a murky lake.
“Why aren’t you angry?”
“Because they’re right.”
“No, they’re not. Mirror, show me Saved Memories.”
The mirror played images of you working on your short stories, snippets of you singing along your favourite song, as well as videos of you learning a dance.
“You shine like the brightest star in the galaxy sweetheart. Don’t let ducks call a swan ugly. They’re not even in your league, darling.”
“Am I?”
“You don’t need my confirmation, you can see it as well, maybe a flicker here and there, but those little flickers will grow into a  flame if you leave that life of yours. Don’t think too much about it, come, have a shower, I’ll show you to your room.”
Xiao Jun took you down the hall into your room, which was in front of his.
“I made it just like the bedroom in your world, so there shouldn’t be a problem with figuring out the shower. That laptop is yours, as well as those books, they’re the ones you already have and ones that you always wanted to read. The internet’s password is your birthday, yes we have internet access here. I painted the walls with the shade of blue you love, the bed is lilac, since you love that colour as well. There’s clothes from your own wardrobe as well as our clothes, it might be a bit fancy, but you might like it.”
Xiao Jun turned into such a sucker for you, the ‘I eat humans’ was such a front, you couldn’t help but smile at his dorkiness.
True to what Xiao Jun said, the shower was just like a regular shower, and the clothes in the wardrobe were nicely prepared to fit your size, making you wonder how he knew even these little details.
You went out and knocked on his door, Xiao Jun was out by the third knock, his hair now in yellow curls.
“What’s with the hair?”
“This is my natural hair colour, didn’t want to scare you too much just now. Though we really do eat humans, just the hearts, the hearts taste exquisite, according to the old fairies, and only if they threaten to develop that piece of forest. We used to eat humans all the time, until my father put a ban on it, didn’t want to look suspicious.”
There was a look of horror on your face.
“Trust me, only the old fairies eat humans, we prefer animals most times.”
You let out the breath of air you were holding in.
“This is my own private dining room, and tonight we would be having steak and ox tail soup, no humans.”
You manage to let out a laugh at his odd humour, starting to feel more at ease in his presence.
The two of you ate and drank wine, talking about his life as a royalty in his fairy kingdom.
“My mom told me I would have wings, I was so scared I checked my back every night before I slept, until I realised no one had wings and that it was just something made up in the tales.”
After dinner, the two of you danced ungracefully, the wine making your head light and footsteps a mess, giggling at each other’s mistake. After the two of you got tired, Xiao Jun carried you into his room.
He placed you on top of a couch, taking a seat beside you to admire the beautiful stars in the clear night sky.
“Would you like to try fairy dust?’
“It makes you fly? Like Peter Pan?”
“That is only one usage of fairy dust, we eat it as well. Wait let me show you.”
Xiao Jun took your hand and led you to his walk in wardrobe, it was just as big as the room he gave you, but what caught your attention was a mini pool, but instead of liquid, it was filled with swirling sparkling dust.
“Oh my god.”
Since you were drunk, you did the dumbest yet most logical thing ever, jumping into the pool. The dust made you bounce on an invisible force.
“Why am I not flying?”
“You have to give directions in your head, but I wouldn’t recommend doing that, I wouldn’t want to call medic when you hit your head.”
“Right...Jump in, join me!”
Xiao Jun shook his head in disbelief, but jumped in with a smile on his face regardless. Xiao Jun walked to your direction, stopping right in front of you.
“Breath it in.”
You did as he said, the fairy dust making you feel happy and free, as well as a warm feeling in your stomach that you can’t put your finger on once you look at Xiao Jun,, your eyes scanning his beautiful physique. Xiao Jun breathed in the dust after you, his eyes diluting into a darker shade of brown, his senses picking up little things about you that he didn’t before, like the plump of your lips, the curve of your hips under that tight skirt.
“Y/N, I want you.”
Xiao Jun kissed you with fervour, his tongue dipping into your welcoming mouth. Instead of pushing him away like he thought, you kissed him with just as much passion, your hands starting to linger under his shirt. Xiao Jun started to unbutton your top, throwing it out of the pool.
“No bra?”
“This isn’t the mortal world, there aren’t any sex predators here.”
“What about me?”
“This is for you, my king.”
Xiao Jun didn’t know whether this was you talking, or the fairy dust in your system. Xiao Jun marked up the length of your neck, purple flowers blooming in his wake as you started taking off his shirt and pants.
“Why the rush, love?”
“I need you, please.”
The amount of slick flowing onto your legs was too much to be normal, you didn’t know what side effects the dust has, but you just needed relief, and only Xiao Jun could give that to you. Xiao Jun took off your skirt and panties, smiling at that pretty piece of ruined silk in his hands.
“Wonderful.”
Xiao Jun let his hands travel southwards as his lips engulf your breast in his mouth, nibbling and sucking away like a new born, as well as leaving a mark near your nipple, the slight possessiveness sending shivers down your back. Your hands curl in Xiao Jun’s soft locks as he pushes a finger into you, when he could feel how wet you were, he decided to push two more in, curling his fingers at your sweet spot, making you cry out his name breathlessly. 
“Xiao Jun, more please. I need you inside me.”
You grinded onto his bare cock, his pre cum smearing over your slit, egging him to slide inside you.
Xiao Jun, pushed inside you in one go, your wet walls welcoming him. The action made both of you moaning in sync, lust filled relief washing over the both of you, making both of you crave for more. He started moving once you adjusted to his length, you could feel every vein and curve of his length as he bottoms out inside of you. Xiao Jun pushed himself closer to you, feeling you nipples against his own as he thrusted inside of you, the friction making your head spin from pleasure. Xiao Jun couldn’t believe it, after so many years of waiting, he finally had you in his arms, withering under his pleasurable touch. Xiao Jun slides a hand from your hips down to your clit, rubbing quick circles over it. Whimpers of his name fall from your lips like a beautiful piece of music, you were nearing your high as you felt the build up of an orgasm as your toes start to curl, your legs wrapped tighter around Xiao Jun’s waist as your head falls onto his shoulder, the overwhelming pleasure binding your body with his as he continues his thrusts, pace quickening once he felt you nearing the edge. Xiao Jun lifts you higher to thrust into you at a better angle, his tip hitting your sweet spot with every thrust, making you scream his name as your nails dug down his back, the pain mixing with the pleasure fuels Xiao Jun’s desire to absolutely ruin you under his touch.
“Cum for me, Y/N. I know you’re close.”
When you didn’t answer his request, Xiao Jun snapped his hips against yours at an even quicker pace, the speed of his thrusts inhuman, making your head swirl in pleasure as little bits of saliva drip from your lips down your throat as you throw you head back, the sight of the marks Xiao Jun left behind from earlier pushing his need for release. Once Xiao Jun wrapped a hand around your beautiful neck, you lost it. You couldn’t even scream as the pleasure was overwhelming all your senses, blinding white light behind your closed lids, your mind chanting his name like a mantra. Xiao Jun let out a beautiful moan once he felt your walls closing around his length in a vice grip, sending him over the edge as he paints your walls a milky white, his pearly white teeth biting down your shoulder to muffle his noises.
Once your orgasm subsides, you collapsed into Xiao Jun’s arms, energy drained completely by the handsome fairy. Xiao Jun carried you into his bed with the assistance of fairy dust, glad that he didn’t need to wobble into bed supporting your weight as well as his. He adjusted the pillows and blanket to accommodate your comfort, slipping in beside you once he was done, taking you into his warm embrace. Only one thought in his head.
‘You’re going to be with me for eternity, and nothing is going to take you away from me, my love, just like what the stars told me.’

Quote
Hazel was known as a life-giving tree from old Irish beliefs and also thought of as a faerie tree. Irish legend tells that nine hazels grew over a sacred Celtic well and over the River Shannon, which is the longest river in Ireland. At certain times these hazel trees produced red nuts. If the salmon came up the river and ate the nuts that fell into the water, they would get red spots. If one could catch and eat these salmon, they would acquire wisdom and supernatural knowledge, as the mythical warrior Finn McCool did. Another folk tale example featuring hazel as having otherworldly powers comes from the original Cinderella fairy tale from the Brothers Grimm. It tells of how a hazel sapling grew up from the mother’s grave and her bones had transformed it into a powerful wishing tree that sheltered doves, whom acted as Cinderella’s protectors.

The 5th VK
<-Chapter 1 Chapter 3->
Chapter 2: So Much Smiling
“You guys act like children.” Mal expressed in annoyance, with crossed arms. Hailey looked at Mal with too many sweets in her mouth. She tried to say something, but it came out as a jumbled mess with some slobber coming out of her mouth. “Ew.” Mal gagged.
Hailey eventually devoured the candy in her mouth. “I said, I’m fourteen. My actions are valid. They’re older than me.” She pointed at the two boys.
Mal rolled her eyes and looked out the window. Evie noticed her best friend and tried to help her out. “You're looking a little washed up. Let me help you.” Evie tried to brush some blush on her cheeks.
“Ew, stop,” Mal brushed her off. “I’m plotting.”
“It’s not very attractive.” Evie tried to bite into the crystal candy again.
“It’s supposed to look intimidating. Not attractive.”
At this point, the boys and Hailey were stuffing their faces with too much candy with Carlos getting brown stuff all around his mouth. Carlos had picked up some kind of thick brown thing and bit into it.
He bit into it once, and melted right there. He turned to Jay, “Oh! These! It's salty like nuts, but it's sweet like,” he thought for a few seconds, and gave up when nothing came up. “I don't know what.”
“Lemme see.” Jay asked. Carlos opened his mouth with all the chewed candy in his mouth. “Ew.” Jay snatched the candy in his hand. He ate it whole. “Mm…” Jay nodded and smiled as he ate it.
Mal started fiddling with some kind of remote control.
“Hey... guys,” Hailey got everyone’s attention. “The bridge was destroyed right?” Everyone nodded in agreement and Hailey continued with a little fear in her voice, “So how are we getting across?” Just then, Mal clicked a button on the remote control and a small wall in the front limo came down, exposing the wide ocean with nothing in front of them.
“Look!” Evie screamed. They all looked out of the front window.
“It’s a TRAP!” Carlos yelled.
Crap! Was this Auradons plan all along? Pick them off and kill them in small groups? Hailey’s heart pounded faster in her chest at the thought. She panicked and grabbed hold of whatever was closest to her, which happened to be Jay’s bicep, and squeezed her eyes shut. Carlos hugged her abdomen as Evie and Mal came close and hugged the other three.
They all started screaming things they regret they ever said or haven’t said.
“I’m sorry I made fun of your jeans, Dad!”
“I hate my mom!”
“I love you Mal!”
“I love you guys!”
Everyone braced for impact for a few seconds.
But nothing came.
“We’re… alive?” Hailey asked quietly, as she opened one eye and got her nails out of the thief’s bicep.
Evie looked out the window, and was amazed by the golden bridge that appeared, “it must be magic.” She smiled.
“Hey!” Mal got the driver’s attention, “did this button open the barrier?”
“No,” he answered without turning to her. “this one opens the magic barrier,” he held up a different remote. “That one opens my garage. And this button…” he slowly brought the divider up.
Mal turned around to the group again.
“Okay then…” said Hailey with an amused smile.
“Nasty.” Said Mal, as she tapped the remote on her knee. “I like him.” Mal paused for a moment, then looked at Evie. “Did you say you love me?”
Evie's face burned, “I-I meant you all.” Evie stuttered out. “I love you all.”
Everyone gave her a 'really?' look while Evie shifted nervously. “Sure…” Carlos said slowly.
Jay turned to the demigoddess “Did you say something about your dad's jeans?” The young thief asked Hailey.
“He’s a grown man in skinny jeans.” Hailey scoffed. Everyone laughed at the realization, making small conversations for the rest of the ride.
“Ooo.” Carlos admired the color of a random cloth he found.
Jay, with too many things under his arm, tried to snatch the cloth out of Carlos’ hand. But the young De Vil resisted, starting a tug of war between the two boys.
“Dear lord.” Mal said with exhaustion.
Carlos’ back was on the limo door when suddenly the limo stopped and Carlos went barreling through the door.
“Stop! You got everything else! Why do you want whatever this is?” Carlos yelled, but Hailey wasn’t listening, she walked around the arguing boys and took in her surroundings.
She walked out of the limo and was taken back by the brightness in the new place. The demigoddess could only say one word to describe Auradon: green. Everything looked so… clean. They had these pretty things blooming out of the trees, and had leaves on their trees. Hailey’s eyes grew hard. How selfish of them to keep this to themselves. Doesn’t matter, they’ll have the wand soon anyways. But maybe she’ll take the pretty things.
A short woman in a blue dress and a pink bow walked up to them. Mal kicked Carlos’ back telling him there were people watching.
“Just cleaning up.” Jay said with a sly smile. He murmured for Carlos to get up. The white haired boy scrambled to get up.
“Leave it where you found it,” the woman with the pink bow started. “And by that I just mean leave it.” She said, making Jay throw all the random items he was holding back into the limo.
When he turned around, his eyes caught the girl hanging on the boy in blue’s arm “Hello... foxy.” Said Jay to the girl, with a sly smile. She gave him a disgusted look and he backed off.
“Welcome to Auradon prep. I’m Fairy Godmother, headmistress.” The woman in the bow introduced herself with a warm smile.
“Fairy godmother?” Mal asked, “As in, "Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo”?''
“Bibbidi-bobbidi. You know it.” The headmistress.
“Yeah, I always wondered what it felt like for Cinderella when you just appeared, out of nowhere, with that sparkly wand and warm smile.”
“Oh.” Fairy Godmother smiled again.
“And that sparkling wand.” Mal mentioned the wand once more, earning a kick to the boot from Hailey. Her way of saying “stop talking. You’re going to give us away.” Making Mal stumble a bit, which in turn Mal Side kicked Hailey’s boot.
Either she didn’t notice, Or Fairy Godmother chose to ignore what was happening  between the two girls, she decided to respond back with “That was a long time ago. And as I always say, "don't focus on the past or You'll miss the future." Mal smiled back at her.
The brunette boy in blue stepped up. “It's so good to finally meet you all. I'm Ben.” He introduced himself.
“Prince. Benjamin.” The girl hanging off his arm said “Soon to be king.” She giggled.
“You had me at prince.” Evie smiled as she stepped forward, “Evie.” She introduced herself with her always majestic voice. “My mom's a queen, which makes me a princess.”
“The evil queen has no royal status here and neither do you.” Said the female brunette.
Evie gave a small frown and stepped back next to Carlos. The young De Vil gave her a small squeeze on the shoulder.
“This is Audrey.” The Prince said with a defeated tone.
“Princess Audrey. My mother’s Aurora. I’m His girlfriend!” She leaned her head on his shoulder. “Right, Bennyboo?”
Mal’s mouth curled into a small smirk and placed her hands on Hailey’s shoulders. “And this is Hailey.” The purple haired fairy introduced her.
It took Hailey a few seconds to realize what Mal was trying to do, but when she finally understood, she went with it. “Greek Demigoddess, Hailey.” The fourteen year old corrected, “my father's Hades.” She mocked the Princess and gave her a smug smile as she put her hands on her hips.
It seemed that FairyGosmother noticed the tension and decided to step in. “Ben and Audrey are going to show you all around, and I'll see you tomorrow. The doors of wisdom are never shut.” Fairy Godmother threw her hands up suddenly making Hailey jump a little. She smiled at the five of them. Why do all of these people smile so much? Hailey wondered. “But the library hours are from 8:00 to 11:00. And as you may have heard, I have a little thing about curfews.”
“So we’ve heard.” Hailey snarked under her breath.
She waved goodbye to all of them as she made her way into the giant castle behind them. Leaving the two royals with the villain kids.
Ben gained their attention once more. “It is so, so good to finally,” The prince attempted to shake Jay’s hand, but the Arabian punched his chest as a greeting instead. “Me-meet you all.” He wheezed a little. “This is a momentous occasion,” He tried To shake Hailey’s hand but they never left her hips, she instead gave him a nod in Acknowledgment. He went to shake Mals hand, and It was the most normal so far.
He moved onto Carlos and paused. He shook his hand slowly as the two gazed into each other’s eyes for awhile. Maybe her eyes were fooling her, but to Hailey, it looked like Carlos’ cheeks had gone a little pink. “That I hope will go down in history…” he  said slowly as he shook his hand. “that chocolate?” He asked as he licked a small bit of chocolate off of his finger.
"Chocolate." Both Carlos and Hailey said under their breaths, glad to put a name to the sweet.
Back to what was going on, It seemed as if ben was lost in Carlos’ eyes. “Um…” he lost track of what he was supposed to say next, “ was I saying something?”
“Something about “a momentous occasion”. Jay reminded the Prince.
"Right." Ben gave Carlos a small smile before moving onto shake Evie's hand. The blue haired girl shook his hand eagerly. He finally came to the end of his speech “As the day our two peoples began to heal.” He. Stepped back ro Audrey and smiled at all of the VKs. Honestly, what’s up with all the smiling?
"Or the day you tell five people where the bathrooms are." Mal teased Ben, as the other snickered at the comment.
"Too much?" Ben asked.
"Just a lil'." Said Carlos, with a teasing tone. Ben gave him a sheepish smile.
“Yeah. How long did it take for you to practice that in the mirror?” Said Hailey, joining in the teasing.
It seemed the teasing was personally bothering the brunette princess, and she decided to intrude, “Hey! You're Maleficent's daughter, aren't you?” Mal raised her eyebrow at the girl, but nodded nonetheless. “I totally don’t blame you for your mother trying to kill my parents and stuff.” She said with a fake smile.
“You know, and I totally do not blame your grandparents for inviting everyone in the whole world but my mother to her. stupid. christening.” Mal said the last three words separately, with a fake smile identical to Audrey’s.
“Water under the bridge.” Audrey told her.
“Totes!” Mal agreed. They shared a forced laugh together.
The awkward tense silence fell among the group once more.
This time Ben broke it. “Okay!” He clapped his hands together. “So, how about a tour? Yeah?” He started walking to the castle before, stopping himself, turning around and looking at the VKs. “Sorry. I didn’t get any names.”
Each VK gave him their names, Hailey noted when it looked like Ben’s smile grew wider when Carlos revealed his name.
After every name, they continued on.
“Auradon prep, originally built over 300 years ago and converted into a high school by my father when he became king.” They all faced a statue of, what Hailey is assuming, King Adam. Ben clapped his hands twice, and the statue morphed into a terrifying beast.
The sudden transformation of statue startled all of the VKs, but freaked Carlos and Hailey out so bad, they both jumped into the arms of who was closest to them. Hailey landing in Evie’s arms, and Carlos in Jay’s.
“Whoa, Carlos, Hailey, It's okay.” Ben tried to calm the two down. “My father wanted his statue to morph from beast to man to remind us that anything is possible.”
“Does he shed?” Carlos asked.
“Mom won’t let him on the couch.” Ben responded with a smile.
They continued on to the tour. But the Hailey and Carlos stayed in the oldest arms.
“Carry me?” Hailey swallowed her pride, and asked Evie with a small voice.
“Fine,” Said the older blue headed girl. “But only until we get there.”
Carlos tried the same thing with Jay, but the thief dropped him immediately.
When they arrived in the castle, Hailey let herself out of Evie’s arms, and Ben gave a small summary of the room they were in.
“So you guys have a lot of magic here in Auradon? Like wands, and spells like that?” Was the first thing Mal asked when Ben finished his speech. Hailey shot Mal a look that said ‘really?’. She really isn’t being subtle about this.
“Yeah, it exists of course, but It's pretty much retired. Most of us here are just ordinary mortals.” Ben answered Mal.
“How is being royalty ordinary?” Hailey asked the question all the VKs were wondering.
“Um…” Ben started to say, when one of the kids from the band that played when they arrived, showed up at the top of the stairs. “Doug!” He called him, “Doug, come down. This is Doug,” Ben introduced him. Doug gave a small wave. “He's going to help you with your class schedules and show you the rest of the dorms. I'll see you later, okay?” Then the prince made direct eye contact with Carlos. “And If there is anything you need, feel free to…”
“Ask Doug.” His girlfriend interrupted him, and pulled him along down the long hall.
“Hi, guys. I'm Dopey's son. As in Dopey, Doc, Bashful, Happy, Grumpy, Sleepy, and... Heigh-ho.” His voice slowed when his eyes caught Evies.
“Evie. Evil queen's daughter.” She introduced herself.
“Doug.” He held out his hand.
“You already introduced yourself.” Hailey reminded him.
“Right. Um… oh yeah! Okay. So about your classes, I, uh, put in the requirements already... history of woodsmen and pirates, safety rules for the Internet, and, uh, remedial goodness 101.” Doug explained as he gave them each their schedules.
“New class?”  Was Evies guess. Doug gave her a sheepish smile.
“Come on, guys, let's go. find our dorms.” Mal said as she led the group down one hallway.
“uh, yeah, your dorms are that way, guys.” Doug pointed down the other hall.
“I knew that.”
Doug dropped the girls down in one room, and led the boys further down the hall to their room.
Mal opened the door and Hailey covered her eyes. The bedroom they’ll be staying in was pretty cramped due to the 3 beds. 2 to the sides and one in the middle. The curtains wide open letting in all the sunlight. 2 desks on one side and some kind of foam chair near one of the beds. The beds themselves had white comforters with pink pillows, and a white bed frame.
“This place is so-”
“Gross”
“Bright”
“Cringey”
“Cliché”
“Stereotypical”
“Did I mention bright?”
Hailey and Mal listed the worst things about the room.
“Hailey, get the curtain.” Said Mal.
Once both curtains were closed, Hailey and Mal let out a sigh of relief.
“Finally.” Said Hailey. Everyone let themselves drop in a bed.
Frick, this bed feels nice.
“So what’s next?” Evie asked from where she was laying.
“We get the wand.” Mal told her.
“Today?” Hailey propped herself up on her shoulders as she looked at Mal.
“Yup.” Was the last thing Mal said before she put on her plotting face again.
“Yo, where’s our luggage?”

The Laveau Twins - Chip and Dale Laveau (Fraternal)
Chip Loko Laveau
Parentage: Maternal- Cinderella Laveau (aka: Whale) and Jetsam Laveau (Resurrected lazarus bokor- Forever obscene 17 - Twin brother of Flotsam Laveau)
Connections: Close to the Kuzpin clan, lost boys, the voodoo encampment, and Zeke’s family.
Chip is the more plotting thinker of the pair, fearless, and quick on the draw. Dale is the louder and more rambunctious of the pair. He can come off very in your face while Chip is more stealth and always on duty. These “Rescue Rangers” might run around the swamps saving animals (a passion passed down from their mother) but Chip is anything but a softy if his scope is set on an enemy. 
He’s no joke when it comes to weapons, tracking, and hunting. Jetsam fathered that right into his veins. But, he doesn’t like to be called a hunter. He likes to think of himself as a detective on a case. 
Powers: Good thing too because this is another twin that did not get passed Jet’s eel powers. He has the magical shared sight the whole Laveau clan shares, but again, his powers come mostly from his mother. His hands can heat up like his fathers’ but he’s never been able to produce dangerous voltage or lightning, just sparks. Dale is very jealous of even that. His mineral, rock, and other earthly elemental bending has created a highly skilled alchemist. He’s the kind of boy that would be praised for his superior meth making skills if he’d grown up in that world. But, instead he dabbles a lot in darker sciences. But, in the end he still prefers the simplicity of firearm or blade when it comes to intimidation. 
He can be a little bossy with Dale and is more the brains of the operation. 
Loves snakes. He leaves them around River all the time just to freak him out. He’ll hide them in drawers, boots, bathroom mirrors. It drives River nuts. 
His alchemy and herbal affinity makes him a good cook too. Dale teases him that he’d make a fine house-wife for someone one day. 
Much like his middle loa name-sake, he is closely aligned with the forest, trees, and animals. He has an affinity to herbology and healing. Loko is the loa mambos invoke with healing rituals and gain their knowledge. Chip may have an all brawn appearance with his firearms, but his mentality is far more intellectual than he lets on. He has fears for his family that never really stop turning in his head. 
Like his twin, he didn’t really want to go to school, but couldn’t ignore the call when he found his sister was going. He doesn’t trust outsiders and everyone who’s not in the family is an outsider to him. 
There’s a light in him that’s different than his twin. Dale will start trouble. Chip doesn’t. Chip is the one that finishes it. 
Flotsam likes to create zombies for his boys to play target practice with. 
He wants to get a pilot’s license to help fly to and from Kuzpin’s private island.

Jonathan Groff, now starring as a hapless flower shop clerk in an Off Broadway revival of “Little Shop of Horrors,” has a tiny confession to make.
“I am really bad with plants,” said the 34-year-old actor, recalling how rapidly the orchids and other flora occasionally sent his way seem to shrivel up and die. “I kill them.”
We were seated under an oak tree that had just tried to bean us with a fast-moving acorn, somewhere inside the New York Botanical Garden. Visiting had been my idea, and I wasn’t quite sure whether it was cheesy or inspired. (Spoiler alert: The musical is about a bloodthirsty plant).
But Mr. Groff was game — he had never been — and although the Bronx gardens were not especially menacing (other than that wayward nut) they did provide an opportunity for some reflection on his unlikely career swerve.
He’s performed in two juggernauts — the animated film “Frozen” (he voiced Kristoff, the rugged ice harvester, and will do so again in “Frozen 2” next month) and the stage musical “Hamilton” (he played King George, scoring his second Tony Award nomination with just nine minutes of stage time). And he stars as an F.B.I. agent in the critically lauded Netflix serial-killer drama “Mindhunter.”
So what is he doing in a 270-seat Hell’s Kitchen theater performing a show that can easily be seen at many a summer camp or community theater, and that, the producers say, will absolutely positively definitely not be transferring to Broadway?
The answer, he says, is mostly that it’s fun. He loves the idea (“It made me so giddy and excited”). He loves the music (“I’m just obsessed by it”). And he’s as surprised as you are (“I can’t believe we’re doing this”).
“We’re just laughing because it feels like we’re doing a professional version of the quintessential high school show,” he said. “We’re all going to back to that initial nerdy impulse of what made us fall in love with musical theater.”
The other key factor: This revival, of a show that first opened Off Off Broadway in 1982, is a passion project for the director Michael Mayer, who played a formative role in his career. Thirteen years ago, Mr. Mayer took a risk by choosing Mr. Groff over actors with more education and experience to star in an experimental Off Broadway musical called “Spring Awakening.”
That show transferred to Broadway and won eight Tonys; it brought Mr. Groff his first Tony nomination and changed his life. “It was everything I ever dreamed of, come true at 21,” Mr. Groff said. “And, like I told Michael, it’s a lifetime of paybacks.”
In May, Mr. Mayer asked Mr. Groff to join him at the Metropolitan Opera for a performance of his production of “Rigoletto,” and during intermission, said to him, “I think I found the next project we’re going to work on, because I know something about you that other people don’t.”
A week later, Mr. Mayer called and asked him to play Seymour, a clumsy and nebbishy orphan fascinated by exotic plants and besotted by his co-worker Audrey.
The show, written by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, is now in previews at the Westside Theater, where it is scheduled to run through Jan. 19; the production also stars Tammy Blanchard, as the ill-treated and ill-fated Audrey, and the two-time Tony-winner Christian Borle as her sadistic dentist boyfriend.
“Jonathan presents as a beautiful man, competent and terrific and engaged and completely at ease in his own body — the paragon of the golden boy,” Mr. Mayer said. “But I know that there’s this other part of him that is very much like Seymour — he’s got insecurities, and he’s got this childlike passion for things that he can get obsessive about, in the way that Seymour is obsessed with the plant and with Audrey.”
Obsessions? Let’s just say that as a child, Mr. Groff would type out, from memory, scripts of “I Love Lucy” episodes (he also read books about Lucille Ball, a memoir by Desi Arnaz and a book about their company).
“I am a total nerd, and this role is actually closer to who I am as a person than the other parts that I’ve played on Broadway,” Mr. Groff said. “I have a whole side of me that isn’t the projected image,” he added. “I get this — I totally get it — and it feels like a natural fit.”
His physical transformation from hunky to homely has turned out to be surprisingly persuasive, so much so that this production has interpolated a recurring sight gag about the character’s unattractiveness that, by combining absurdity with plausibility, slays the audience (pardon the pun) over and over.
Mr. Groff, dressed by costume designer Tom Broecker in ill-fitting khakis and a vintage blue shirt, appears to cave in on himself during the first act of the show, as if he doesn’t even deserve to stand fully upright. He wears black mad scientist glasses, a beige cap and blue Chuck Taylors, and manages to look boxier and younger than he is in real life.
“The only way he’s not a Seymour is because he’s gorgeous,” Ms. Blanchard said. “But even that goes away — he just seems to shrink into this dorky thing.”
But is “Little Shop” more than a lark?
“It’s about something larger — it’s Faust,” Mr. Groff said. “It’s about greed, and how far you’ll go to get what you want.” But, he added, “the reason it ran for five years Off Broadway, and there’s a movie, and every theater in the world has done it, is because it so doesn’t take itself seriously.”
Visiting the botanical garden prompted memories for Mr. Groff, who said it reminded him of childhood trips to Longwood Gardens in his home state of Pennsylvania. “The smell!” he exulted.
He grew up in Lancaster County, where his father trains horses. He loved musicals, and dreamed of performing (early fantasy roles: Maria in “The Sound of Music” and Eliza in “My Fair Lady”). As a little boy, he dressed as Mary Poppins and Cinderella and Alice and Dorothy, as well as Peter Pan, before discovering the joys of Robin Hood.
He moved to New York instead of going to college, and after waiting tables and an early Broadway debacle (as an understudy in the short-lived “In My Life”) landed “Spring Awakening.” That show, he said, “was my college experience, in a lot of ways,” broadening his understanding of musical theater and increasing his appetite for risk.
He had known he was gay from an early age, and had been living with a boyfriend since he was 19; he came out to his parents shortly after leaving that show, at 23: “I said, ‘I’m gay, but I’m not going to be in a parade or anything.’”
By 2014, he was starring in the HBO series “Looking,” about a group of gay friends in San Francisco — and appeared as a grand marshal of New York City’s gay pride march.
“I started to just become way more comfortable,” he said. “When I came out it was sort of like, ‘If I could change it I would, but sorry, this is how I am,’ and then it took those years to feel like this is a part of me that I love and I would never want to change.”
He said coming out has had a generally positive impact on his career — he has been landing roles both gay and straight, and “ultimately the payoff has just been that I’ve been able to be more and more myself.”
And he’s happy. For the last year and a half he’s been dating Corey Baker, a choreographer from New Zealand he met while teaching at a musical theater summer school there. He lives in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, but also recently purchased a house adjoining his father’s horse farm, because he has a fantasy of eventually transforming the property.
“My ultimate dream is to turn it into a kind of artists’ colony for my friends to go make work,” he said.
Mr. Groff shuns social media — he said he doesn’t think his life is that interesting — and bikes around the city. He has no interest in clothing. He showed up for our photo shoot with three T-shirts — white, gray and black — proud that he had heeded a publicist’s advice to bring options.
Although he’s never quite sure what’s next career-wise, he likes the work he has.
“Mindhunter” was an unexpected pleasure — “I’m not naturally drawn to true crime,” he said — but he wanted to work with the director David Fincher, and has enjoyed the immersion in a new world, as well as the time filming in Pittsburgh, which allowed him weekends with his family.
Up next: “Frozen 2.” He won’t say much about what to expect, other than that Kristoff now gets his own song, and that the character is “ready to take it to the next step” with Princess Anna.
As we were wrapping up our conversation, I asked Mr. Groff about an article I had seen in a Pennsylvania paper, noting that he had been spotted in the audience for a community theater production of “Evita.”
Mr. Groff said he loves seeing theater where he grew up, and had been further inspired by the actor Michael Cerveris, who while filming “Mindhunter” had soaked up shows in Pittsburgh. So yes, he was at “Evita” with his 4-year-old niece, and he also made time to see “Mamma Mia!” at a theater where he had performed.
As we hopped into a golf cart to find our way out of the garden, he wanted to show me one more thing. He pulled out his phone, loaded with pictures of the cramped backstage at “Little Shop,” and swiped to a video in which he was running lines with that niece, who has been learning about the show in preparation for attending opening night.
“She’s apparently been telling the kids at her day care that she eats blood, and she’s obsessed with the plant’s eyes,” he said. “But I think she sort of gets that we’re playing pretend.”
