May I inquire about current fandoms and favorite past fandoms? And also in general what types of media draws you in?
hrrmmmmm well, i haven't really been In Fandom the way i used to in years. my perennial special interests are the forgotten realms DnD setting, Tolkien Legendarium (obviously, the vanya says), and to a lesser extent the elder scrolls universe. I loved and occasionally still read fic/hunt for fanart for steven universe! The way i engage with tolkien stuff is now mostly in the lense of my religion and only occasionally as fandom--i do like reading fics that approach the legendarium with different meta interpretations of the original texts or coin new neologisms for language or culture that were not fully fleshed out in the text. My earliest fandoms were Forgotten realms, then unreal tournament, then tf2. I think tf2 was Thee Most Fandom fandom i have ever engaged in, including terrible fic that was destroyed a few machines ago. I have also done some self-insert stuff for funsies with like, the different fallout games and stuff between those, or mlp gen 4. As far as media goes, it has been a long time since i have read fiction, as i primarily read for my herbalism work and spiritual work. I play a few games on repeat, but some of them (Bioshock series) aren't the kind of thing i would seek fandom for. I watch shows when i do my nails, and i love strange new worlds (star trek) and somehow, the witcher netflix, so far. i definitely dont feel... like.... qualified to do any writing for star trek fandom though.

16 and 46
hii Vanya! thank you so much for the questions <3
16. want any tattoos? what of?
yeah, definitely! so many actually and unfortunately i don’t have any yet
i am mostly a piercings kind of gal bc i don’t really put much thought or planning into my piercings (they don’t feel as permanent i think) but with tattoos i have this need of everything being perfect which is not great with actually deciding on a design and setting up an appointment
for now i want to get a star on my wrist, fairy riding on a bat (idk where yet), Baba Jaga hut on my leg, sabre on my ribs, maybe some stars on my stomach and something on my lower back idk what yet (probably some design with the heartagram to be honest)
46. what do you need when you’re sad?
bootleg bad quality recording of some concert from the late 90/early 2000s (HIM is always a safe bet), herbal tea, soup, lit candles and warm blanket

Following the lead she joined to take a seat on the couch, being extremely mindful of the delicate furniture, and even more when presented with the tea she did her best not to apply pressure. Many times without thinking about the finer things and materials....she often broke cups on accident, something great strength could be truly a curse in a way.
Letting the elderly woman she would listen, like a keen hunter observing its prey, she memorized her words. Vanya may not be someone who had the ability to use magic nor the ability to memorize heavy book tomes, but conversations with people are something she would pay attention to closely.
Taking a sip from her tea, she savors the herbal calming flavor as she takes a deep breath before speaking her piece. "Madam with all due respect here, which might not mean much to you coming from me, but despite my strength I can't nor want to force someone to do something they don't desire," she said plainly without sugarcoating her words too much.
"Your son has made his choice to be a valuable ally to myself and many other adventurers we have met before, all on his own accord. You should have more faith in him just like we all do " she adds with a softer smile glancing over Shin to give a more nudge to him in the right direction. "Also mam, you keep calling me vulgar, which I understand might be because of what I wear. But other than that, I don't think I have done anything to offend your home or your people so far. Do you always belittle your guests without any good reason?"
Vanya could not help but raise a brow, now she may be brash but this lady was not beating around the bushes wasn't she? Her people may have been on the crude side but even they welcomed people despite being vastly different. Seems like the same could be said for Shin's hometown. Ah well, she was already prepared to meet plenty of prejudice.
"It's a lovely home you have madam, cozy I must say " she spoke simply remembering her mothers advice that sometimes it's better to put your claws back. However, having a small bird landing on her head did cause her to chuckle softly at the little critter.
"Pleasure is all mine little Zander!" she adds with a broad grin reaching her hand to gently tap the small bird's beak if it allows her.
Shaking her head she wanted to reassure him that all was well, but the more she observed him the more she noticed his posture. He was rigid as if he was tied up and unable to sit more comfortable. Was he truly happy to visit his home?
To somewhat soothe him she reaches her other free hand to stroke his back gently, trying to encourage him. "You wanted to speak with your lovely mother haven't ya mate?"

Clouds are hovering and showering here and there. Do you know what it means? Monsoon has begun in India. Do you think it is a piece of good news or bad news? I wait for rain, As I love to go on a bike ride and exploring nature, trying to catch raindrops in my palm. Something I never forget to carry Pure Himalayan Rose Water, Mint and Tulsi Shower Gel, Himalayan Peppermint Essential Oil.
Reason– Heavier the rain, the problem will also start raining as Monsoon brings a gift wrapped with various health issues like cold, cough, fever, skin irritation. Before rain spoils your fun, why not shoot it with a precautionary loaded gun of monsoon essentials.
Why are they essential? Let me tell you.
Essential oils are as essential as enjoying tea and pakoras at home. While moving out in the rain you need to be extra careful. Essential oil gives the luxury of enjoyment and health. I prefer peppermint essential oil due to its benefits. Cooling and refreshing aroma coupled with necessary health benefits.
Health Benefits of Himalayan Peppermint Essential Oil
Reduces Muscle and Joint Pain-
Due to the presence of calcium antagonism it very effective in healing muscle pain and joint pain. Apart from Being an analgesic, it is also Anti-inflammatory which helps to soothe infection as well as pain associated with joint pain caused by arthritis. It is safe, naturally prepared and a very good choice for various pains such as knee pain, back pain, and neck pain.
In the case of any injury or wound, peppermint oil can be applied to the affected area to reduce swelling, giving pain relief. Composition with various other essential oil like aloe Vera oil, eucalyptus oil, lemon oil, orange oil, or rose oil increases the effects of mint oil.
Cold/Cough- Menthol can give instant and effective relief from many respiratory or breathing problems, including nasal congestion, bronchitis, asthma and the most common one cold and cough. Menthol is used as an important ingredient in medicines likes Vicks, D cold, Vicks vaporub. Vicks vaporub is rubbed on the chest and inhaled through the nose for easier breathing and relief from cold.
Mood Lifting- The premium luxuries having peppermint essential oil is, it lifts the mood, opens up nostrils, cure headaches and many problems. Use a diffuser to inhale a very little amount of oil and the magic begins.
Why mint and Tulsi Shower gel?
Tulsi is known as the mother of herbs and contains many health benefits. A powerful antioxidant, antidepressant, anti-inflammatory, and many more benefits. Do I need to explain why mint?
But the question is why to shower and why shower gel?
Rainwater is acidic and also water on roads, river or lakes become polluted as the dirt, impurities, mud travel with rainwater. Thus, it becomes essential to have a shower after soaking wet in the rain shower. Even getting wet, the body gets dehydrated, thus to remove the dirt and pollution, to keep skin hydrated you need a refreshing shower.
How to use it?
Take a small amount and apply gently on wet skin with your palm or a wet loofah to cleanse the skin and exfoliate dead cells. Therefore, rinse off thoroughly.
Here is the last one Beauty essential Rose Water
Rose Water:
Rosewater holds its place in every family due to plenty of benefits and pleasing essence. It works effectively on every kind of skin either it is oily, combination, dry, or normal skin, rose water is a must-have beauty eternal that everyone wants to add in its daily beauty routine, especially the women.
Pure Himalayan rose water is every home’s beauty essential due to a pleasant aroma and wonderful healing power. Rosewater is effective for every kind of skin and does not have any side effects.
Pack the bags-
Monsoon is a wonderful season for fun especially if you are nearby to a village or hills. Either you are a rain lover or not, these are must-have essentials for home. you know umbrella can’t protect you every time. So, pack the bags and enjoy the rain or sit at home and have tea and pakoras again and again. Want to enjoy the rainfall, it’s totally your call.

Dating 60's Klaus Hargreeves Headcanons
Request: hiya sweetie 💕 i was wondering if you can do a fic or headcanon, whatever is easier for you, about dating klaus hargreeves in the 60s? 💕
Oooh boy, I am a hot mess right now and not emotionally stable but here we go
Comments are always appreciated! <3
Okay, I���m going to start this by saying that you and Klaus definitely were dating before the whole 2019 end of the world zapped back to the 60s by little older brother shenanigan. The two of you met way back in the day when you followed the sound of screaming and sneaked into the mausoleum, just letting this strange, terrified boy rest his head on your shoulder while you wrapped him in your arms.
Since then, he’s just been head over heels, and the two of you have been through Ben’s death, rehab, Reginald, just everything together.
That’s why, when he landed back first on the wet ground of some random 1960′s alley, and you didn’t land down beside him, he was absolutely heartbroken.
For the first time in his life, he truly didn’t know what to do or where to go. He didn’t know who he was without you, which is how he ended up setting up a cult in your image.
One day when he’s heading into town, off to buy another billowing shirt, or some nice bell bottom jeans, he hasn’t decided yet, he sees a very familiar set of eyes behind the menu of a passing diner window.
Running in, his mouth drops open and his lips start quivering when he sees you just sitting there, ordering lunch. Dropping down the menu, your eyes widen when you see the mess of a man standing by your table, every limb of his body shaking, before he reaches out to rub his thumb against the side of your cheek as if he were in a dream.
‘Y/n?’
That night, his favourite night of all time, the one where he found you again, is just spent cuddling. He takes you back to his mansion, and you have no time to be in awe, or ask how he managed to scuff up the money for a place like this, before he’s grabbed a sheet of some old piece of furniture and has wrapped it around both your shoulders like a burrito.
He sounds like his teenage self again as he giggles against your forehead, walking you backwards and finally tripping your feet so you land on the sofa.
You don’t notice the painting of you that’s hanging up on his mantelpiece.
He spends the whole of the night awake, in disbelief that you’re actually here, tucked into his arms again. He has one hand placed gently over your heart, and the other rubbing against the small of your back as he just keeps kissing and kissing your forehead over and over, scared that you’ll disappear in the morning.
You wake him up by tugging on his beard, which is why he decides to finally shave it off.
When the rest of his cult finally catch up with the two of you, they think you’re a goddess. Klaus honestly doesn’t know what to say, he just puts on his sunglasses and becomes a blushing mess as you stare up at him in shock.
He’s s o c l i n g y. This poor baby has spent every day missing you, he honestly could live out his life happily in the 60s as long as you’re by his side, every moment of every day. Five. however, isn’t quite of the same mind set, and was not very amused when he zapped in to try and find his brother, and instead found the two of you rolling around the floor in the midst of an apparent tickle match.
He just sighs and rolls his eyes, deciding it would probably just be better if he tried to find Luther first.
Ben, however, is ecstatic to have you back, as Klaus no longer feels the need to buy alcohol anymore. Any time he has an urge to ruin his sobriety, he just sits down next to you and nestles his nose onto the side of your shoulder, breathing you in.
‘I love you so so much, Y/n.’
The two of you spend a lot of days before, you know, the second end of the world, lounging in his pool. He’ll be on the neon pink floatie, you on a nice green one, a cocktail in one hand and the other holding each others.
He’s never felt so at peace.
Although he also loves coming out of the pool, because you’ve made a routine to hop up onto the side and pull him against your chest with your thighs, before cradling his face with your hands and reaching down for a kiss.
He always starts blinking heavily and sighing when you try to pull away, that you feel bad if you don’t press another one against his desperate lips.
Bad idea, though, as half the time he just pulls you back down into the water with him.
Many afternoons are spent rolling around in the grass, or, with Ben’s suggestion, in the dirt, feeding each other strawberries. The look of just pure devotion and love in Klaus’ eyes as you pull the stalk away from his lips, though, always makes Ben fake gag.
Having to help him feel better when Ben keeps trying to possess him, which ends with you rubbing calming oils into his back during herbal bath times, and also hugging him close to you once Ben saves Vanya and disappears.

I have this head canon that after the apocalypse is done and over with (for real this time) Vanya tries to convince Five to try drinking herbal teas instead of coffee because it’s better for him and he obviously needs to sleep instead of downing 6 cups of coffee (a lot of caffeine)
Vanya gives me herbal tea vibes I don’t really have a good reason for why I just think it would be really cute for her to try (even though it probably wouldn’t work b/c Five is stubborn and likes his coffee)
Awwww yesssss

😊 Having their hair washed by the other + Klaus/Reader? Good luck with the move! 💛
A/N: Any excuse to touch those curls, right? 😉
You pressed a finger to your lips as you slipped through the salon door, signalling for Allison and Vanya not to let on that you had arrived. Klaus lay back with his head in one of the plastic basins, a towel draped over his shoulders, eyes closed. For the moment, he looked peaceful; you wanted to capture the look on his face and wear it in your heart forever.
You wiggled your fingers up and down at Allison, miming a scrubbing motion and pointed at yourself and at Klaus. She smiled, or maybe it should have been called a smirk, and stepped out of the way, motioning grandly for you to take her place.
"Everything alright, sis?" He asked, thankfully not opening his eyes to check.
"Hm? Oh yeah its fine. Just trying to make sure I've got the right products. Your hair's gotten so long, we want to keep those curls healthy and not let you get matted."
"Oh, okay. Take your time."
You surpressed a giggle as she walked over, handing you a set of large green bottles that, even closed, had a sharp herbal scent that for some reason made you smile.
All your tools in place, you set to work. As you combed your fingers gently through his long locks to ensure they were thoroughly wetted, it to all of your willpower not to play with them as you were wont to do.
You lathered the shampoo on your hands, working it through, strand by strand.
"Ooh, that's interesting. It's making my skin cold?" He quipped, tensing at the feeling.
"It's the tea tree oil. Just relax," Allison said, rolling her eyes.
He sighed, sinking more fully back again and you set about rinsing, eyes drawn away from his hair to the goosebumps dancing along his neck and collarbone before it disappeared beneath the towel. You smiled, biting your bottom lip. Now for the real fun.
You squeezed a generous amount of conditioner onto your hands and began massaging it in, raking your nails gently across his scalp and the back of his neck, tugging just enough to be noticable as you moved further away from his head.
A quiet, involuntary moan escaped his parted lips. Your eyes flickered over to his sisters who looked torn between amusement and discomfort.
"Careful Allison," he sighed blissfully. "You keep doing that, and I might just pull a Luther."
She pressed her lips together to contain a giggle even as she rolled her eyes. Vanya didn't bother to hide her own bark of laughter.
You leaned over him, staring sort of upside down at that beautiful face.
"Well then," you purred. "It's a good thing I'm not Allison isn't it? I'd hate to have to be terribly jealous of myself."
His eyes fluttered open and a bright smile blossomed on his face. God did you live for that smile.
"Y/N?" he whispered in surprise.
"Hello love."
He tried to sit up to kiss you and you pushed him back down with a gentle hand on his chest, before leaning in to kiss the tip of his nose.
"There will be plenty of time for that later. I'm not done washing your hair."
"Tease," he whined.
You heard the jingle of the bell and the click of the door, signalling that you two had been too nauseating and the others had left. On the other hand, it meant you had the place, and him, all to yourself...
"You know you love it."
"I do. I really do." A cheesy grin accompanied the statement, and there was a gleam in his eye that said he'd noticed the lack of other people as well.
"The only thing I like better," he murmurred, hand creeping up from the arm of the salon chair to rest on your ass and nudge you closer, "is getting back at you for it."
You sprayed him in the face with the hose while you tried to rinse the conditioner away and he kneaded and pawed at you.
"Stop that!" You laughed in half-hearted protest. "If I don't get this out of your hair, you'll be stuck in that chair. And then where will we be?"
"I don't know," he drawled. "I can think of lots to do from right here like this."
"Incorrigible bastard."
"Minx."
You finally dropped the hose and scooped his hair into a towel. In a blink, he sat up and pulled you down onto his lap.
"I love you," he breathed, not giving you time to respond before his lips were on yours. Not that you minded. There would be plenty of time for that later.

how i think the umbrella academy takes their tea
luther- he doesn’t actually like tea he just wants chocolate milk but doesn’t want to look weird so when he’s offered it asked for really weak tea
deigo- to prove he’s better than luther has it very strong (not black) and openly mocks anyone who puts sugar in their tea though will put excessive amounts in his own when he thinks no one is watching
alison- a good, strong cup of tea, i’m thinking maybe one sugar, two when she’s feeling sad, probably uses oat milk
klaus- no one ever taught klaus how to make tea so he just puts hot water from the tap into a mug and adds the milk before he puts the tea bag in. he would definitly microwave it if it got cold
i refuse to provide a photo for that
five- two options here, either completely black or milky and full of sugar. of course drinks black coffee more but when offered or in the afternoon when it’s too late for coffee
ben- like alison a good cup of tea though ben doen't take his with sugar, gotta look after them beautiful teefs. also he just uses normal cow’s milk. i’m thinking somewhere in this region
vanya - only ever herbal or friut teas, she has a cupboard in her appartment somewhere with at least 10 different types of tea at any one time, everytime she goes somewhere she makes a point of buying a new and interesting type of tea
#i'm talking about english black tea here btw#i wrote this while looking sadly at my own cup of tea which i had let go cold#alison is definitly the most trustworthy#vanya and ben are also vaild#diego is just acceptable#luther and five can take their pussy tea and pour it down the toilet#klaus has his tea rights revoked#the umbrella academy#tua

22. what is a promise they’ve broken?
they promised their mother and brothers they'd stay safe.
59. what is a quiet passion of theirs?
he loves botany and herbal medicine. he grew up learning from his mother, the town apothecary, and he knows plants like the back of his hand.
61. what kind of flower would they choose to pick from a meadow?
primroses, daisies, pinks, anything with a long stem to make into a flower wreath. he likes being able to wear things around to keep the memory longer.

Road Trip AU
For Star Wars POC Week 2020
Day 6: AU Day
AO3 Link
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary: Rex, Cody, Wolffe, Fox, Bly, Ponds, Tori, Odd Eye, Gowon, Mayyah, and Ares were heading on a road trip to a campsite. Along the way, they found themselves with a stowaway and a different route than what they intended.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Packing her suitcase, Tori grabbed her clothes and her toiletries that she organized inside a clear pouch, which has proven to be useful for the clone commander. She sealed her bag and headed out of her cabin that she shared with her brothers and sisters, hopping inside the van that Cody rented out.
"Are we ready to leave, Codes?" she asked, jittering. "I'm already done with my stuff and shit."
"We're still waiting for Odd Eye," Rex grumbled. "Apparently, she's still packing up her horror novels and shit."
"That long? How many books does she need to bring?"
"She can never have enough horror novels," Gowon gave her comments. "You know how much Odd Eye is a sucker for scary stuff."
"But that many though?" Tori raised her eyebrows. "We're only going on a road trip, that's all."
"Yeah, a fun road trip," Cody deadpanned, glaring at Wollfe, who was admiring himself in the mirror, much to Tori and Mayyah's dismay.
"Can we not fight?" Mayyah slapped his shoulder lightly. "This is a family vacation, and we need to have fun, okay?"
"Whatever," Fox rolled his eyes, his eyes glued to his datapad, settling some of his things from work.
As they all stood there in front of their van, Odd Eye rushed out of the door, dragging two suitcases with her hands, leaving their eyes widened.
"That's a lot of stuff you're bringing," Gowon pointed out. "You know we're only going on a road trip, right?"
"I am aware of that," Odd Eye replied. "Which is why I'm bringing the entire collection of Lovecraft's novels."
"Are you even able to finish his entire collection?" Ares gestured. "It'll take weeks, you know."
"I'm a fast reader, Ares, so yeah, that's why I bring all of them."
As Cody hopped into the driver's seat, Tori was about to call shotgun when Pond occupied the seat. "Sorry, Tor. I'm holding the map so you need to sit at the back."
"Fuck you!" she cussed as she sat in the middle of the van with Gowon, Odd Eye, Mayyah, Rex and Ares, who got to sit beside the sliding door. Meanwhile, Bly was stuck between Fox and Wolffe, who were the grumpiest among the command batches. He wishes to sit beside Ares instead.
"Are we all ready to go?" Wolffe asked. "Or did anyone forget something?"
"Uh, I think we're good," Bly answered. "Now come on, let's get moving."
The van drove off from the cabin, heading towards the tarred road. Odd Eye grabbed her notebook from her sling bag and jotted down her own story that she made up while Gowon read her book about butterflies. Tori, on the other hand, had to tolerate Rex, who's constantly poking her puffy cheeks.
"Rex, can you please stop?" she scolded him. "I am trying to play 'Among Us' with the girls."
"But your cheeks are so squishy," he defended himself, pinching her cheeks. "I just want to squeeze them until it pops."
"I will break your fingers if you don't stop," she threatened, giving him a death glare.
"Well go for it, Tori. I dare you to break my fingers."
"Can you not?" Mayyah stopped them. "I'm trying to have a good time here."
"But it's so boring. We've been on this road for hours already."
"Don't be a drama king, Rexy. It's only been twenty minutes."
"Hey guys," Odd Eye stops writing. "I'm trying to write here."
"No one cares about your writing," Rex stuck his tongue. "You're annoying."
"Well go fuck yourself, oh wait, you have a rash."
"Well, fuck you, Odd Eye."
"Fuck you too, you-"
"Oh my god," Cody sighed in resignation. "Why can't we have a dainty, relaxing family vacation just for once?"
Ares could only snicker as she was fixated on her phone, watching her favourite girl group performing on stage. She could say something, but at the same time, she finds their bickering music to her ears.
Wolffe, on the other hand, had his headphones on the entire time while Fox was still settling his paperwork on his datapad, much to Bly's chagrin. He wanted to initiate a conversation between his brothers, but they seem to be in a terrible mood all the time.
"So, anyone wants to play I, Spy?"
Ares gave a thumbs up and smiled.
"I'm not playing," Fox told them, rubbing his temples.
"Okay then, I spy something that is green, and it's not a tree."
"Okay," Tori scratched the back of her head, searching for a green object when she came across an Eden green hair clip on Gowon's platinum blonde hair. "It's the hair clip, right?"
He nodded. “Yes, it’s the hair clip.”
“Okay, my turn,” Mayyah joined in. “I spy, with my little eye, something that is made out of paper?”
“A map,” Ponds answered. “It’s the map.”
“No, it’s not the map, Ponds.”
“Is it Odd Eye’s notebook, cause that’s the only thing here that is made out of paper?”
“I’m terrible at playing games.”
“This game is so boring,” Rex complained. “Are we even there yet?”
“No, Rex,” Cody assured him. “We have like 100 kilometres more to go before we arrived at our camping site.”
He folded his hands as he leaned closer to Tori, who pushed him aside. He looked at the time on his watch and groaned again. He didn’t bring anything except his phone to entertain himself during the road trip and now regrets everything that he packed in his bag. “Are we there yet?”
“No, Rex,” Ponds replied. “We’re not there yet.”
“Are we there yet?”
“No.”
“Are we there yet?”
“No, we’re not there yet.”
“But are we there yet or not?”
“If you ask that question one more time, I swear to God that I will end you,” Tori threatened, making him burst into laughter. “I’m dead serious, Rex.”
Shit, she just called me by my actual name. Well, I’m screwed. “I’m just joking around, Tori. Can’t you take a joke or something?”
“You’re such a pest, you know that.”
“That’s very sweet of you, Tor,” he grinned, squeezing her cheeks, prompting her to slap his hands away. “Ow, that hurts.”
“It’s not even painful, dickhead.”
“Can you two please quit it?” Cody scolded his vod’ika. “I’m trying to drive here.”
“He started it,” she sneered, pinching his arms.
“I was just playing around.”
Gowon rolled her eyes at those two and gazed outside the window, noticing her surroundings filled with thick, humid jungle and didn't see any signboards which indicate that they’ve already reached the beginning of the highway. She felt something wrong in her guts. According to the map, it was supposed to be a wide road with lots of cars but instead, it was only a narrow street with no cars except for them. Something is up.
“Hey guys,” she spoke, in a nervous tone. “Not to incite panic but are we lost?”
Cody’s eyes widened as he turned to Ponds, who had the map in his hands. “Ponds,” he whispered to him. “Where are we?”
“We’re on the highway right now, Codes,” he replied, looking at the map again, just to make sure that he’s reading it properly. “Yup, we’re at the highway alright.”
“Are you sure? I don’t see any signs that we’re on the highway.”
He checked again and again until he realized that he had printed out the wrong map. Crap, this is the map to Taco Bell, not to our camping site. How do I tell Cody that I left the actual map on my desk?
“Ponds, are you there?” Cody snapped his fingers in front of his face. “Answer me, vod.”
“I don’t know how to tell you but apparently, I accidentally brought the wrong map,” Ponds stuttered. “Please don’t kill me. It was an accident.”
“So all this time, I’ve been driving in a different direction?” He placed his hand on his shoulder, making Ponds choke on his own saliva.”
“Vod-”
"Are you fucking kidding me, Ponds? Now we're actually lost in God where."
"Wait, we're lost?" Bly gasped.
"Yeah, we're lost but calm your-"
"Oh my gosh, we are lost?" Gowon screamed, leaving Cody to hit his own face.
"I just told you not to panic, Gowon."
"Are we going to die?" Odd Eye hugged her notebook.
"No one is going to die, Odd Eye."
"Oh well, time to buy me a coffin and a shovel for myself," Tori resigned in a calm manner, sipping her bottled water.
"Look, we'll find a way to our camping site, okay?" The marshall commander tries to compose his siblings. "We'll always find a way through these kinds of situations."
"We could use a GPS," Mayyah recommended. "They're much more efficient than a map anyways."
"Excellent idea, Mayyah. Thank you so much."
"I have to disagree with you," Fox finally spoke up. "But a GPS would make it worse."
"Oh really?" Ares signalled, raising one of her eyebrows. "Can you prove it, Foxy?"
"First of all, Ares, it's Fox and secondly, Thorn and I had used a GPS to the warehouse, and we ended in the middle of a funeral instead."
"That's because you keyed in the wrong location, Foxy," Wolffe took off his headphones, leaving Tori to laugh at his embarrassing story.
"I pity Riyo for having a clueless husband like you," she snorted.
"Well, Tori," he wanted to fight back. "I pity whoever fucks with you."
"I'm an ace, dumbass."
"Then, I pity whoever has to marry you," his voice shook, trying to say something back to Tori, much to his failure. Wolffe gave a few pats on his brother’s back, assuring him that it is no use to snark back at his younger sister, which doesn’t seem to help much.
In desperation, Cody decided to go with Mayyah’s ideas, since her case is stronger than Fox. He may be smart and experienced, but at least Mayyah practices self-care, such as sleeping for eight hours and drinking herbal tea that Vanya had suggested.
He took out his phone and pressed the GPS app, Waze and hung it on the phone holder by his window. “In 400 metres,” the feminine voice of the GPS spoke. “Turn right.”
“Looks like we’re back on track,” he chuckled, much to Fox’s agony. He has a bad feeling that their trip will not end well, judging by how inefficient the app is.
As they reached the intersection, he turned right. “Keep straight and then turn left.”
Rex checked on his Snapchat and pressed on Fives’ story, where he discovered that his younger brother was lying at the back of the van the whole time, making him blinked twice. Maybe I should just pretend that I did not see that.
And Rex did that by putting his phone down and resting his elbow on Ares, who was watching a romantic movie on her datapad. She shooed him away with her left hand and focused on the movie, but the captain of the 501st wouldn’t budge at all. I wish I could kill him while he’s sleeping, the red-haired clone said to herself as she leaned her head against the glass window, wishing that she could wiggle her feet.
Bly felt his stomach grumbling in hunger and proceeded to reach his hands for a bag of potato chips when he was tugged. Like his partner Aayla would say, he screeched like a vulture. “There’s someone in the van.”
“Fuck!” Cody exclaimed, pressing the brake of the van harder, leaving some troopers almost flying from their seats. “What was that?”
“Is it a serial killer?” Odd Eye guessed.
“Hang on, Odd Eye,” Wolffe shot down her answer. “It could be some stowaway or something.”
“Then it’s a serial killer stowaway.”
Wolffe could only shake his head as they got out of the van and unlocked the boot, only to find ARC Trooper Fives squeezed in between their suitcases, letting out a nervous laugh. “Took you long enough to figure it out.”
“Fives, what the hell are you doing here?” Tori asked, her hands on her hips. “And also, how did you get in here?”
“I heard you guys were on a road trip, so I decided to come along as well.”
“You di’kut,” Fox growled. “You almost made us crash.”
“I didn’t mean to, Commander. It was an accident.”
“Look, guys,” Mayyah tries to stop Fox from attacking him. “We don’t have time for this. If we want to get there faster, then we need to keep moving, alright?”
“You have a good point, Mayyah,” Cody scratched underneath his chin, before turning to Fives, who was shivering. “Alright, Fives, you’ll be sitting next to Bly, if that’s fine with you.”
Bly shook his hands. “Actually, I would rather sit with Ares."
The mute clone gave a wide grin and nodded. Since she and Bly are close, the thought of sitting next to her best friend is good enough for her. Besides, she finds Bly struggling to strike a conversation with Fox and Wollfe anyways.
They continued to hit the road, with Cody putting on Smells like Teen Spirit on the radio, which was sung by Nivarna. Ponds, who was not a fan of funk music, decided to switch to his favourite music, Autumn by Vivaldi. The Marshall Commander finds classical music to be rather boring, and changed it back to his favourite song, much to Pond’s chagrin.
He looked away for a moment and purposely slipped his hands on the radio, flipping back to Vivaldi. Cody was so frustrated with his brother that he changed back to loud music.
"I hate this song," Ponds complained, switching back to Vivaldi. "It makes my eardrums explode."
"Vivaldi is a boring musician and his symphony makes me feel sleepy," Cody fought back as he changed the radio.
"Nirvana sucks anyways!"
"Don't be a snob, Ponds. They're legendary, unlike this Vivaldi guy."
"Oh yeah? This song is too depressing and angry for me anyways."
"You-"
"Enough bickering," Fox shouted from the back seat. "I'm trying to sleep, for fuck’s sake."
"Sorry, Foxy," Tori teased. "Honestly, you're such an old man sometimes."
"It's Fox, not Foxy!"
"Whatever, Foxy," Cody went along with the joke. Fox could only hold his tongue as he laid his head on his seat, dreaming about his lover Riyo Chuchi.
"Turn left, and then, turn right," the GPS guided them, leaving Cody confused. Despite that, he just followed the directions that were given to him, since he had no other choice anyway.
"You have arrived at your destination."
That was a lie. Instead of a campsite, they ended up in a dark, gloomy graveyard, with bare trees growing in front of the gate. “Uh, vod, are we in the wrong place?” Tori asked, clutching her hand against Rex, who had to deal with a frightened, younger brother, which is Fives.
“Yeah, we are in the wrong place,” Cody grabbed his phone. “I don’t even know why this thing led us here in the first place.”
“See, I told you GPS is shit,” Fox snarked. “But no, you decided to ignore my advice and used the GPS to get us to our camping site.”
“Okay, now it’s not a good time to point fingers,” Mayah suggested. “We need to think fast if we’re going to find our way out of the situation.”
“You know,” Ponds raised his hands. “I could download a map from my phone and use that one instead.”
“Is it a map to Taco Bell?” Wolffe questioned, to which Ponds shook his head.
“No, it’s a map to our campsite. I found it on the Internet while I was on my phone.”
“Bruh, why didn’t you do that sooner?” Bly crossed his arms.
“I just found out, okay?”
“Whatever it is, we should just keep moving,” Mayyah grumbled. “As I said earlier, we can’t afford to linger around here anyways.”
“Yeah, same,” Odd Eye murmured. “As much I like the view of a cemetery, it gets dreary the longer your stay here.”
“You tell me,” Fox said, blankly. “I just want this journey to get over with.”
“Hey guys, could we stop by at McDonald’s later on?” Fives wondered.
“We have food in the car,” Rex told him off.
“Fine.”
