#also i really want to thank kiwi-

[raynavan]

ah- a perfectly normal crossover <3

there is art i made for it under the cut, but i Highly suggest reading the most recent chapter to get the context. (tw: horror)

so, there was a but of a question on how ingo would be able to leave the moon if the in game character died due to the Frog (that is, apparently, what the monster that eats you at the end is called) but Kiwi had the brilliant idea of: what if there were Two monsters?

the eye you take a picture of in-game is rather different then the monster that kills you- so... Two Guys!

i kinda. ran with it.

(both of these were traced over straight from my sketchbook- so they are... messy. the concepts since then have also changed a bit, but i... have no clue where my other Frog drawing went- but here is the BEAST (name pending))

a fun thing i did on a white board and also-

from an Aggie. of course, this needed some tweaking so i made it better.

oh yeah.

[campingwithmonsters]

So I’m actually developing another original story besides Bliss which I’m calling “Duck Duck Goose”. It revolves around fairy tales, but more specifically around the nature of “Grimm Fairy Tales”, partnered with their original absurd or violent natures.

Here’s our protagonist:

Einin, a pregnant woman presumably somewhere in her mid-twenties, is on the constant run from a giant creature known as the “Mother Goose”, who bares a grueling and unsatisfiable appetite. With it’s most favored source of sustenance being naive individuals currently conceiving, Einin’s current status of pregnancy has made her target to this monster. It chases her down relentlessly, and all that Einin can do is find ways to divert it in any way possible in the hopes that she can give her growing body a well-needed rest.

With a scent so strong, the Goose is always bound to find her. The only source of constant socialization is her bright yellow umbrella, to whom she refers to as “Ducky” as if it’s its own entity. All of the escaping she does usually wears her down, and has driven her to the point of talking to the umbrella— and claiming that it talks back. Everyone in their right mind knows it’s nothing more than an object. But with Einin’s emphasis on wanting to protect the seemingly important umbrella, it makes one consider her motives as to why she’s dead set on always having it where she can see it. Perhaps it’s a comfort item? But it can’t be that easy, right?

In her consistent attempts to stray as to hopefully one day lose the Mother Goose’s reign, being that staying in a single place for long usually means the Goose will continue to come back, she occasionally meets with other peculiar individuals: A girl cloaked in a red hood who mounts the back of a giant wolf, two bounty hunter siblings apparently made of candy, a mysterious man of many fables and stories passed around about his grand accomplishments, and so on. She’s not sure of dubbing any of these encounters as “friends”, though. Not that she doesn’t want to, but circumstances have made staying in one place and creating meaningful bonds a task too dangerous for her own good. Usually, she has to run from them, too.

Oh, and if you’re wondering, this is the Mother Goose!

a/n: this fic has nothing to do with food.

why yes I did make these GIFs especially for this fic thank you for noticing

Something to read while we're waiting for the results of the no thoughts/hard thoughts poll. If you want a soundtrack, Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home) by Usher fits pretty well (no daddy kink in the fic though).

word count: 1.4k

Smut under the cut, minors dni.

comfort eating.

You’d been staring at this damn code for so long you might’ve burned it into your eyeballs. Somewhere, in the distance, you’re vaguely aware of the apartment door opening and closing, and someone calling out that they're home.

But by now you’re so obsessed with trying to find whatever formatting fuck up you made, that even the metallic jingle of keys falling into the “let’s-not-lose-this-shit” bowl doesn’t bring you back into the real world.

It’s not until your laptop physically moves out of your hands that you realise. Chan is home.

Sitting on his heels in front of you, he gently picks the computer up off your lap, his expression a mixture of concern and understanding. One workaholic recognises another.

“Is everything backed up?” He too knows the pain of a well meaning friend trying to help by tidying up, and accidentally erasing hours of hard work.

“Cloud and hard drive. And external hard drive. Possibly tattooed on my retinas also." He nods and carefully sets it on the side table, snorting quietly when you get to the part about your eyeballs. The little crease between his brows remains though.

“You told me you were going to take today off…”

You'd only meant to do a few lines of code, just to check for errors and maybe add a function or two. And yet here you are, sitting in the exact same spot from this morning, neck and shoulders aching from being hunched over your laptop for…

7 hours.

Chan rests his chin on your knees, head tilted to the side as he looks up at you like a lost puppy.

“Baby…”

No. Wait. Puppies don't sound like that. Or look at you like that. Or rub soothing, promising circles with their thumbs on the bare skin of your calves.

You're suddenly very aware still in your pajamas. If you can call it that. Really it's just one of Chan's old t-shirts, the fabric worn soft, always smelling like him even though you slept in it- and not much else.

Yeah, Chan's definitely not giving you puppy eyes.

The wolf is here tonight.

And he wants to play. You can tell from the subtle smirk that quirks the corner of his mouth when you audibly swallow.

“How… how was work?”

“Long. Busy. Tiring.” He punctuates his sentences with slow kisses on your knees, the closed mouth kind that still manage to feel anything but chaste. “Jisung dyed his hair blue. Felix's is no longer blond. Hyunjin cut all his hair off. Someone said something about a kiwi fruit and now the stylists are all freaking out.”

His tone is light, almost absent minded, but his touch has progressed from soothing circles to something a little firmer, a little more… demanding. And as his hands slowly creep up your legs, you're fairly certain you know what he wants.

“Chan…”

“Yes, baby?” His lips stretch into something that could almost pass for an innocent smile, if it wasn't for the fact his fingers have worked their way up to the hem of his t-shirt, slowly teasing the fabric further up your legs.

“Wh-what are you doing?”

“Well…” his fingers sweep under the fabric, inching closer and closer to where arousal is bubbling in your belly, still carefully punctuating his words with kisses on your skin, “I figured, since we're both so... stressed…” his fingers finally brush against your panties and you shiver. “I could help you relax a little.”

“Wh-what a-about you?”

He’s tracing, teasing along the edges of your underwear, watching you bite your lip to keep your cool. He likes it when you try to stay quiet. It makes it so much more satisfying when you start crying his name like it's the only word you know.

And then the bastard licks up your thigh, tugging your panties down and saying the magic words:

“I thought I'd indulge in a little comfort eating.”

You didn't make it to the bedroom. You barely made it off the sofa. Instead, Chan just yanked you forward, laid back on the rug, and now you're riding his face in the middle of the living room. Making the kinds of noises you thought only existed in hardcore porn.

His arms are locked around your legs, holding you in place as he grinds you up and down on his tongue. Your hands are twisted into his hair, partly for balance, partly as an anchor… but mostly because when you tug on it Chan moans into your cunt and that feels so good.

He's already tongued you through one orgasm, licking you out like you are his favourite candy. He's so drunk on your pussy that he's murmuring the kind of filth that would usually make him blush -m’ baby tastes so GOOD, w’nna drown in thi’s pussy- though his words are almost completely obscured by the wet, sloppy sounds of him giving you the messiest head you've had in months.

It is amazing, and it's incredible, and Chan is clearly having the time of his life as another orgasm coils in your belly, ready to spring. But he's playing games with you now, teasing you with the gentlest flicks of his tongue, keeping that high juuuust out of reach.

Really, it's his fault that you can't help but yank his hair a little harder, grind down on his face harder, and then you're out of control, jerking your hips back and forth on his face until it hits.

And oh boy how it hits, gushing all over Chan's face, ripping all your dignity away as you buck your hips into his tongue, chasing the high rushing through you from your head to your toes.

You don't always squirt, but Chan loves it when you do.

His moans almost drown out yours, so loud he's practically shouting, definitely disturbing the neighbours with the string of enthusiastic cuss words and filth pouring off his tongue (that's right baby, cum on my face, fucking drown me in your cunt, jesus fucking christ-)

It takes you a minute to come back to yourself, Chan still desperately eating you out, working his tongue all over you like he's trying to lick you clean.

But the more he uses his tongue the wetter you get, the more your hips shake, and the closer you are to another orgasm.

One you're not sure you can handle.

You try to lift up a little, give him space to breathe, and your man straight up growls at you, yanking you back down on his face and sucking on you harsh enough to make you yelp. Reminding you who is in charge, he grazes your clit with just the gentlest scrape of his teeth...

And that orgasm you weren't ready for? Hits you like a railway train. You're aching and overstimulated and absolutely powerless to do anything other than thrash around and cry as Chan keeps sucking on your goddamned clit like the devil himself couldn't stop him.

You might've blacked out for a second. Or three.

It's only when you finally come to a gasping, shuddering stop that Chan finally gives you the two gentle taps on your ass that mean you can get off his face now (safewords aren't really an option when your mouth is full).

Except you're so worn out from relentless overstimulation that it's less of a dismount and more just you collapsing in a graceless heap, legs shaking and thighs aching from being held apart for so long.

Boneless and pliant, it's no effort at all for Chan to scoop you up into his arms and carry you princess style to your shared bedroom. You're barely awake as he tucks you into bed and crawls in beside you, nuzzling your hair as you curl up into his chest.

You've almost asleep when a Very Important Thought occurs

“Channie…”

“Yeah baby?”

“You didn't get to cum. Don't you need to cum? Y’wanna blowjob or sumthin’?”

Chan huffs a quiet laugh into your hair. You're so cute when your words are all sleep slurred.

“I already got what I wanted.”

You’re mumbling something about not playin' fair and don't w’nna be selfish, but you're practically unconscious anyway so he just kisses the top of your head and pulls you closer into his chest.

“You can make it up to me in the morning, if it bothers you so much.”

*It turns out that you will in fact, not be making it up to Chan in the morning. Because when he finds all the carpet burn on your knees, he has a minor breakdown and refuses to let you do anything all day.

Urgh, I feel like this is way, way too short, too rushed, and just generally had the potential to be so much better 😂😭 But I wanted to get it it out of my drafts before it gets lost in the poll fics. I wrote this on my phone, so it's probably riddled with spelling and formatting errors 😂 please forgive me. It's hard to write when the house is full and privacy is limited. Just 3 more days until the No Thoughts/Hard Thoughts closes 👀 thank you to everyone that's voted or shown interest, I hope my writing doesn't let you down.

p.s. I was gonna start this fic with the following GIF but not everyone wants a giggle with their word🍤 so that wouldn't have been very cash money of me.

⤷ synopsis: our favourite actor, toji, discovers more of his fanbase’s depravity…

a/n: i’m sorry this took so long. actor!toji hasn’t been forgotten about okay! ໒꒰ྀི ∩ ⸝⸝ ∩ ꒱ྀིა

“hey everyone, i’m toji fushiguro and i-,” toji exhales deeply, like he’s disappointed, shaking his head and closing his eyes, “i’m gonna be reading your thirst tweets? thirst twee-is that what they’re called?

he looks dashing - his hair boyishly messy, donned in black shirt that is far too fitting, along with dark blue jeans which are far too tight around his lower body, more specifically his thighs. denim stretches around the thick muscle with each of his movements, rippling through the thick material.

those will probably be very distracting to viewers.

toji holds up a smartphone, pressing on its screen with his large index finger, “…how’s this thing work again?” faint laughter can be heard from behind the camera, “‘cos i don’t use phones like this. my phones usually have buttons and stuff…”

after five painful minutes of two crew members explaining how a smartphone operates (condensed into a ten second clip) toji he is good to go.

“ahhh, right, right, right. okay. thanks,” toji clears his throat, shifting in his chair a little, “because i really didn’t know…”

tweet 1

toji sighs and lets out a strained laugh. “look i appreciate the thought but that doesn’t even sound nice…in fact, this just sounds like a threat. is this a threat? it’s a threat to me. also you can’t spell.”

tweet 2

“why are they all so threatening? why do mean beaten up and bloody? why do they all want me in pain? what wrong with you people?!” toji exclaims, shaking his head and sighing, before pondering, “i do enjoying doing fight scenes though, so i’m not against this…”

tweet 3

toji makes a face and his mouth twitches. “huh?! what? what is this? what are they saying? is this what kids are saying these days? is this a compliment?” a crew from behind the camera explains that it is, indeed, a strong compliment. “oh, okay. what happened to ‘he looks so nice’ or ‘he’s so handsome’? they’re so damn strange.”

tweet 4

“just when i thought they were getting normal…all the way to my elbow?” he questions in disbelief. “ and my hands?” he holds up both of his hands, “is that what women like?”

there were many edits made with that clip.

tweet 5

“alright well this one is kinda nice for the most part. i’m gonna ignore the penis part. they’re not not wrong of course.” he states as a matter of fact. but then says, “…me and y/n are not together though…” laughs are heard from behind the camera, “what? we’re not together! if we were, i’d make sure everybody knew, trust me.”

tweet 6

toji clears his throat, breathing in deeply and shaking his head. “i think…i think that’s enough for today. or ever. there’s nothing more to say to this. thanks.”

a/n: actor toji is here guys he won’t be back for another 5 months 👍

Dieter Bravo Masterlist | Main Masterlist | AO3 | Kofi

“Okay, okay, what’s the next card?” 

Dieter grabs a card off the stack and holds it up, squinting to read it in the low light of your living room. 

“Never have I ever… acted out my sexual fantasy,” Dieter reads. He blushes but doesn’t take a drink. You knock back a shot of whiskey before looking at him incredulously. 

“Really Di?”

Dieter flushes even harder, if possible, and looks at the ground.

“Well what is your fantasy? I find it hard to believe you haven’t acted it out, to be honest.” 

He brushes a hand through his hair and stares at the floor as he answers. “It’s not that I haven’t acted out fantasies before I guess, but like my main one? Never.” 

“I’m dying to know what could be so crazy you’ve never acted it out.” 

“It’s not that crazy… I just want a woman to… you know… like… top me?” 

“Top you or dom you? Or both?” The whiskey is making you bold. Dieter is a friend (with benefits of course) and you normally wouldn’t push him so hard on this or admit what you’re about to admit. “My sexual fantasy just so happens to be topping a man.”

Dieter looks up at you then, looking embarrassed and more than a little excited. “You drank on this one… So you would know what you’re doing?” 

“I would.”

“Do you wanna have sex with me? Like right now?” 

“Oh Di, you’re wasted… I’m wasted. You know the rules.” 

“Yeah, yeah. Tomorrow then?” His puppy dog eyes meet yours and you almost cave right then. 

“Tomorrow,” you smile at him. 

You wake up sweating, sunlight streaming into the room and heating it up plus Dieter’s body practically on top of you. He’s a spider monkey in his sleep, always clinging onto you with all four limbs when you stay over. You push him off of you a little bit and you take in his sleeping face. 

He’s handsome always, but especially when he’s asleep. A loose curl is dangling over his forehead and some of the lines in his face are smoothed out – it’s the only time he’s relaxed without being high. You press a kiss to his cheek and he stirs, eyes blinking open sleepily. 

“Good morning,” he says with a dopey smile. 

He leans up and kisses you chastely, but you deepen the kiss immediately. His tongue slides into your mouth, slow and exploratory like you haven’t done this a hundred times. You pull back and kiss the tip of his nose.

“You still up for what we talked about last night?” You half whisper, afraid he’ll chicken out. 

“Please?”

“Off to a great start already, baby boy.” Dieter blushes and drops his eyes from yours, embarrassed and pleased by the pet name all at once. “We’re gonna use the stoplight system for our safeword. Do you know what that is?”

“Yeah! I use it when I’m the one in charge.”

“Great. I also want you to refer to me as ma��am during the scene, is that okay?”

“Perfect… ma’am.” 

“Good boy. Let’s get started then.”

You push him down into the mattress and climb on top of him, straddling his waist. “I want you to keep your hands to yourself, either on the bed or above your head holding the headboard. Is that okay?” 

“Yes, ma’am.” He’s so eager to please, his eyes wide and his lips in a perfect pout. 

You kiss him then, pushing your tongue into his mouth, taking control of the kiss entirely. He’s left to take what you give him, and to his credit, he doesn’t fight you for dominance. You kiss down his jaw to his neck, trailing your lips over his collarbone and down to his chest. His hands twitch by his sides, but he doesn’t move them. 

You drag your lips down until you meet his sweats, then pull back so you can strip them off. His gorgeous cock bobs up to his stomach, already hard and leaking precum. You take him in your hand and lick from root to tip, sucking the head into your mouth. His hands fly up to the headboard, white knuckle gripping it to keep from touching you. 

You pull off him and tell him to stay just like that while you grab lube from the bedside table. He obeys perfectly and you have to pause to collect yourself. His immediate submission is so fucking hot. You crawl back onto the bed and settle between his parted thighs. 

“Do you still want me to fuck you, baby boy? It’s okay if not.” 

“Yes, please, ma’am.”

You smile at him and coat your fingers in lube. One finger circles his hole while you take his dick in your mouth again. You push him to the back of your throat and swallow around him until he’s buried in your throat. He whimpers and you moan around his cock as you push one finger into his hole. He’s always been vocal, but whimpers are few and far between. 

Dieter starts pushing back against your fingers, fucking in and out of your mouth. You pin his hip down with your free hand and pull off of him. “Stay still, sweetheart.” 

Dieter whines but stops fucking himself on your finger. You add a second finger and start stretching him as you take his cock back in your mouth. The sounds pouring from his mouth are sinful and you’re dripping wet for him. You’re trying not to let on just how turned on you are. His balls start to draw up and you quickly remove your fingers from his ass and your mouth from his cock. He whines but doesn’t protest. 

“Can’t have you coming this early, now can we?”

Dieter shakes his head pitifully. You let him calm down and then repeat your actions, winding him up again only to pull off him completely and wait for him to calm down. You want to hear him beg. And you aren’t disappointed. 

“Please, please just fuck me, please. I can’t take it anymore.”

 You swat his thigh. “Aren’t you forgetting something?”  

“Ma’am. Please ma’am, I need you.” He’s so pretty when he begs, you really can’t resist. 

You strip and stuff your panties in his mouth. His muffled whines are even hotter now. 

“You’re being such a good boy for me, baby. I’m gonna make you feel so good.” He looks blissed out at the praise. “If you need to safe word, you can move your hands to take out the panties, okay?”

He nods to show he gets it and you climb off the bed and get your strap from the nightstand. You coat it in lube and tell Dieter to turn over and stick his ass in the air. He complies immediately and you admire his ass and the way his swollen cock dangles between his thighs. He’s so pretty. 

You get behind him on your knees and slowly push the dildo into his hole. He whines long and low, only slightly muffled by the panties in his mouth. You pull out and push back in deeper, working your way into him slow and easy. When you bottom out, you both groan. Him at the full feeling and you at the way he looks stretched around your cock. 

You hear him mumble “please,” through his gag and it turns you on so much you can barely think straight. You pull out of him to the tip of your dildo and snap your hips forward, fucking him hard and fast. 

“Spit out the panties, I wanna hear you.” 

He complies, whining and begging for you to let him come. “Please, ma’am. Please I need to come, you feel so good.” 

“Tell me when you’re close, baby.” 

He whines but doesn’t stop you yet. You slow down and make sure to rub at the bundle of nerves inside him with every thrust, slowly grinding your cock into it. He starts crying and you think you could come just from that alone. 

“I’m close! Please, ma’am I’m so close, please let me come.” 

You pull out of him completely and he collapses to the mattress, whining and crying. 

“Turn over baby boy, I promised I’d make you feel good didn’t I? You trust me?”

“Yes ma’am, I trust you.” He turns over and spreads his thighs, gripping onto the headboard in anticipation. 

“Good boy, color?”

“Green, ma’am.”

You take off your strap and toss it on the floor to deal with later. 

‘I’m gonna ride you now, baby. You come whenever you’re ready.”

“Yes, ma’am. Thank you.”

“So polite,” you stroke his cheek with your thumb and drag it across his plump lips. He takes the digit into his mouth and sucks. You climb on top of him and line him up with your hole before sinking all the way down. You moan in unison, you at the stretch and him at your tight wet heat. 

You place your hands on his thighs behind you and start bouncing on his cock, taking him deep and fast. You’re just as wound up as he is and desperate to come. You bring one hand to your clit, rubbing in furious circles to keep up with your pace. Dieter plants his feet and starts to fuck up into you and you don’t even stop him, too close to coming harder than you ever have in your life to stop him now. 

You feel the coil in your belly winding tighter and tighter, and with one final snap of Dieter’s hips you come apart, moaning his name. The way you get impossibly tighter around him sends Dieter over the edge as well and he fills you so full you feel it leaking out of you around him. You collapse onto his chest, breathing heavily. He wraps his arms around you and nuzzles his face into your hair. 

“That was… so fucking amazing,” Dieter whispers. 

“Yeah, it really was.” You push yourself off of him and roll off the bed. “I’ll be right back, okay?”

You head to the bathroom and wet a washcloth, cleaning between your thighs. You get a fresh one and take it out to Di, gently cleaning his spent cock. You lie down next to him and pull his head onto your chest. 

“You did so good for me, baby,” you tell him as you run your fingers through his curls. He nuzzles into your chest and wraps an arm around you, falling asleep with that dopey grin of his on his face. 

[kcrossvine-art]

hi friends! :D y'all voted and fought neck and neck for this SO- heres the first entry into our little cooking journey of J. R. R. Tolkeins fictional food for his fictional little guys he puts in fictional turmoils for our enjoyment and awe!

 Before we get started i wanna say i owe my heart to all the LotR fans who upkeep the wiki, debate the cannon, and create their own versions of the foods mentioned. Both because of my love for people who LOVE (passionate people)(passion about anything) and because my own knowledge of this series is a little dusty. I've never seen the movies but I did read the books growing up. I'll be learning and remembering things from a fairly newbie standpoint, so no worries if you yourself arent familiar with the series! (and if you are familiar, hopefully youll forgive me!)

We will be making Lembas ('waybread') today! If you've made your own version of this please feel free to share it, similarly if you have any ideas for what we make next!

(As always you can find the cooking instructions and full ingredient list under the break-)

MY NAMES CROSS NOW LETS COOK LIKE ANIMALS

SO, “what goes in to Lembas?” YOU MIGHT ASKWell so the funny thing is we kinda dont know. At least not entirely? The elves are dicks like that. But heres what we'll be using in ours-

Butter

Self-rising flour

Granulated Sugar

Raisins

A small dried fruit of your choosing

Almonds OR Pecans

EGG

Whole Milk

Heavy Cream

And if you would like for dipping-

Blackberry jam

To the extent i understand this is kinda like hardtack from the bri'ish military, but a fantastical version of it that actually tastes really good. Hardtack was a military provision with the texture of a brick that took a long time to spoil and could be easily carried with soldiers. So the texture we're going for is super dense, packed full with nuts and fruits (haha just lik-), but perhaps not that dense. We want something closer to a dog biscuit than actual tack.

I remembered something about corn being mentioned, thankfully the wiki clarified that no actually the british just referred to any grain as corn back in the day. Thank Fuck! Although I would like to try a version of this using masa in the future.

AND, “what does Lembas taste like?” YOU MIGHT ASK

Took a few tries but eventually got it perfectly chewy and dense

The raisins cook-in like little beads of flavortown sweetness

Cant speak for other fruits but for dried apple it softened up nicely, kinda matching the raisins in the end

Im a big pecan slut, pecans fuck on anything especially here. Crumble them on top after you coat the dough with the egg-mixture for some visual appeal

Somewhat flakey outside

The jam was my idea, it was nice but might be too sweet for some tastes

Would pair very well with a kiwi flavored drink

Or mead

I can see why this would a travelling provision. Its both sugary (a good thing when expending energy) and filling (also a good thing when youre travelling) while not being overwhelming with flavor (if youre prone to motion sickness. Horse sickness? Do get motion sickness on horses?)

Its like how if you're going hiking you want a good mix of sugars and salts, to balance your intake of water.

. If you wanna make it like the illustrations or the movie, use a cookie cutter for either triangles or squares . If you don't have a cookie cutter, an apple cutter also works ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . try to keep the board you'll roll the dough out onto chilled before you use it, it seems better for the texture of the food though i dont entirely know why

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So from beginning to end, it took about an hour and half for the first attempt. Down to about 40 minutes for the second attempt. These are a real simple recipe because its not like a croissant where the margin for error is nonexistent. Middle-earth be damned my boy can work a grill.

I'd recommend storing in a tubberware container, but if you're deadset on using leaves please rinse and dry them first, and wrap the bread in either wax paper or saran wrap underneath. We dont have mallorn leaves in real life (as far as we know) but most salad greens should work, or as Marie Porter says (linked in the reblogs!) a banana leaf.

I really enjoyed the process of making this recipe, itd be really easy to batch-bake these en masse, and the process of eating said recipe. Like all jokes aside, i think this would be a great substitute for trailmix. Its not going to get smushed and even if it breaks a bit it wont affect the taste. It wont keep you fed for a whole day but pair it with some pickles or a salty snack and yeah itll keep your motor running.

I give this recipe a solid 10/10 (with 1 being food that makes one physically sick and 10 being food that gives one a lust for life again.) Let me know if you think I got something wrong, or if you ran into issues with the recipe. We're off to a strong start, lads!

🐁 ORIGINAL RESIPPY TEXT BELOW 🐁

Ingredients:

6 TBSP butter, chilled

2 cups self-rising flour

1 TBSP granulated sugar

½ cup raisins

½ other dried fruit (strawberry slices, oranges, etc.), chopped

Handful of almonds or pecans, chopped

1 egg, well beaten

½ cup whole milk

4 TBSP heavy cream

Method:

Preheat your oven to 400 f.

Cut the butter into slivers/small pieces. With your hands, combine the butter into the flour in a mixing bowl until the mixture resembles coarse sand.

Chop your dried nuts and dried fruit until it feels right.

Mix in the sugar, raisins, nut, and dried fruit of your choosing

In a seperate bowl, beat the egg until combined, and then mix in the milk until combined. Keep a bit of this mixture to brush the tops of the bread.

Stir while adding the egg/milk mixture and the heavy cream into the flour. Mix just until combined into a soft dough.

Knead the dough until firm on a floured surface.

Roll into a half inch thickness and cut with a square or leaf shaped cookie cutter. (...or in my case, an apple corer).

Place on a lightly greased baking sheet, with about an inch of space between each piece. Brush the tops of the lembas with some of the mixture you saved earlier.

Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until it turns a soft gold and the inside is chewy.

@alextydaisuda123 and @creat0rstudi0 Good luck in the new year to you two and be happy :D You are very inspiring and surprise me every time. When I first came to Tumblr, I did not expect that Pizza Tower AUs existed, then I only discovered you.

@furiouspatience Good luck next year and creative success! I've seen you before Tumblr (in Vk), and your style is amazing and charming. And the sketches with Pizzahead and Fake Peppino are cute, as well as other art from other fandoms. You are one of my inspirations :3

(Warn you, a lot of text and thanks. If you're not interested, don't read it!)

I want to say thank you to everyone who inspired me from the very beginning. I am very happy that I was able to get into such an interesting and, most importantly, friendly fandom. Yes, there are exceptions, but exceptions should not affect the opinion of the fandom itself. When I was still watching from the outside, I was very inspired by the works of the authors of @/weird0nerdo, @/gronkelart and @/ali-borsch, @/jellazticious, @/bob-mirum, @/furiouspatience and comics by @/gabaobab and @/squid2corn, as well as my love for Mr. Stick was awakened by the arts of garlicbradman64 (i remember they from Twitter/X, which I don't have access to-). Lots of russian authors Daria Cheesman(Twitter), @/klyoma2, and @/whatisnickname-reincarnated

I really hope you guys are doing well and the new year will bring you new experiences.

I met some very nice people in this fandom, @/rachlaw7 and @/cotton-mix, @/rediconsss and @/golubichkalive, @/bogboybird and @/weird0nerdo. I love them very much, they are very nice people!

I am very happy to be in Pizza Tower Ask (Vk) , OC/Canon Ask (Vk) . I really hope this happiness will be long-lasting and I will not have to part with this miracle.

I think the dream of being a part of something big has finally come true. It's a pity that sometimes it's not possible to participate or arrange something because of problems, but I'm glad that I'm in a comfortable environment for myself. I hope, I'm not causing you any problems.

I love you

Chapter 2 of Butterflies is now on Ao3, so this is from chapter 3, in which we see TK and Carlos visit Andrea (this chapter is also cute I promise!...):

Andrea slides her hands down her face slowly. “Why did he do it?” she whispers. Her eyes are still closed. She bites her quivering lower lip as if to keep it steady. Like she's holding on tight to some sort of edge, but with her bared teeth.

TK feels her shuddering under his palm. He’s glad Carlos isn’t touching her right now. He thinks it would scare him to feel his mother’s energy like this. The rumble of something about to blow.

“Money,” Carlos says, “And fear. Because Dad was getting closer to figuring it all out. And as soon as I did, he turned the gun on me.”

Andrea looks at him now, slowly. The whites of her eyes are red; pupils dilated and deep black. Eyes like poppies. “You told me you were shot by a suspect on the run.”

“I had to tell you that,” Carlos says. He hangs his head. It feels too heavy for his neck. His collar is too tight even with his tie removed and top button popped. “Over the phone. I had to.”

“Bridges was going to take you from me too?”

Carlos nods. Did she need that detail? He isn’t sure. But he can’t scoop the words back into his mouth. He’s tried to make things untrue before, by simply not speaking of them - and he won’t do that anymore. She wouldn’t want him to, anyway. Not really. Not even this.

Andrea slaps her hands on her thighs and gets up, brushes past TK who has to hold onto the armrest of the couch to keep his balance.

“Ma, what are you doing?”

IT IS FINALLY DONE!

God, this took me way too long...xD

After days of work I finally finished the challenge that I set for myself: Sending out props to a lot of artist here on tumblr that I really enjoy! (Actually there are way waaay more people, but I really had to set myself a limit, I'm sorry fellas ;w; I still love you!)

These people inspire me every day with their creative concepts, stories, humor and passion for art and give me the drive to continue drawing myself. With this little collection I wanted to say "thank you" for all that you do and create. You rock, guys!

(I really hope I didn't mess up any of the tags and I apologize if I might fu**ed up your designs/characters ;3; I know I'm not the best in proportions and all, but I really tried. <w<´´ Also I really hope Tumblr compresses the text by itself, so that you don't get smacked by this wall of text. I'm still a rookie on tumblr, so I don't know what to do ;w;)

Okay, heeere we go! THE TAGS!

@tv-tower / @uuberwachen - with PB aka Swap Pizzahead (I really love the idea of the au and adore the character designs. PB sure is one of my favorites -w- He is literally the most reasonable of them all XD)

@technically-a-kiwi - with Cosmic Peppino ( The design of Cosmic Peppino is simply beautiful and the idea that this chef has strong star powers and needs to take care of Cosmic Noises shenanigans is super funny to me XD )

@sirtotallynotatimetraveler - with Mel Sproutbloom / Sagebloom (I'm sorry, I wasn't sure which name is canon ;w;) ( I loooove Mel! He is such a gentle, colorful guy and looking at him makes me all happy <3 )

@alextydaisuda123 - with their version of Vigilante ( I can't repeat enough how much I adore their artstyle. I love Vigi's design the most. I don't know it's just...THAT'S Vigi for me, you know? Simply fitting, cool, but also stylish -w- )

@alice-the-demon - with Vittoria ( I was first thinking of drawing Archangel Peppino, since this guy is the softness itself, buuuut I have to admit that I love the lively and passionate personality of Vittoria. She is great -w- )

@misdreavusplush - with Eyelashes ( I can't help it. I saw that character and was in awe. How adorable can you be?? I was barely able to draw her eyes as pretty as they are xD <3 )

@creature-of-pizza - with Pepp ( Seriously, the idea to see a "Fake Peppino" with more cat dna is such a win for me. He is dynamic, sassy, derpy and so damn cool! >w< Also love how colorful their pictures are.)

@eskariolis-con-salsa - with Gnocchi (I was thinking about drawing their version of Fake Peppino first, but...*looks at picture* ...let's be honest, you can't get pass that little guy. ;w; He purifies my soul. Have some soap, little guy.)

@oddpizza - with Caramel Jam aka CJ (Such a creative and powerful character! I've seen so many artworks of them and I adore them. You need more joyful people like this ^^)

@pizza-tower-secrets - with Lycheecheechee ( A small, adorable bundle full of surprises and of course secrets! I love their drive and colorful design. Simply a delight! :3 )

@rhaytronik - with Red ( A dynamic and enjoyable character with their love for adventures! Not only a great character but also the Pizzasona of my best friend. Thanks to them I was brave enough to start a tumblr account myself. So thank you for being there for me <3 )

@cutechan555 - with Mage Gustavo (To be honest, I had a very hard time to pick a character here, since their account is full of stories and ideas. I chose mage Gustavo, since I love his design and story. I'm currently into "Delicious in Dungeon" and to imagine that he goes dungeon crawling with his bros to safe Peppino is such a cool idea XD)

@bigbeastcyruspt - with Trion (I have to be honest, at first I was very startled of Trion, since his design is very mighty and scary. I mean, it's his chase form after all. But the more I learned about him, the more I grew to like him. Very damn cool design! Also couldn't help to add dah baby ;w;)

@lunar-dal - with Pizza Cruise Peppino (Another au I simply adore! The design of the characters is colorful and bright, and to imagine Peppino as a singing gondolier brings me great joy. Also I'm a big fan of otter Brick ;w; )

@smalltimidbean - with Pea Pod, Sugar Snap Pea and Snow Pea (Believe me, I never before had such a hard time to pick ONE of so many wonderful Peppi clones! THAT was torture XD But in the end I guess I picked my favorite. Such a tired, but very cute one. Not to forget about the little ones <3 To draw a PT character with 4 fingers and 2 thumbs on one hand was quite a challenge lol )

@tinderboxofsillyideas - with Coffee Peppino (Probably one of the most adorable au versions of Peppino. Seriously, if I had the chance to get my coffee in his café, I totally would! Give that guy all the tips! <3 First thought of drawing their wizard Peppino version, but the adorable barista won lol)

@xbeih - with Metal Peppino (One of the first au's I started following. Seriously, how cool can one person be?? I mean, the whole au is amazing and I enjoy every person in it. But damn...Peppino takes the cake. ówo He is so badass, you can't imagine <w< Also I'm very sorry, it was my first time drawing a guitar and aaaaaaa )

.....*looks left and right* ...ok, we did it. Wow!

God, I'm exhausted now...XD

Well, thank you very much for reading and sorry for the wall of text ówq I can only recommend you to check these people out. They are all very talented and should be appreciated!

Have a pleasant morning / day / evening / night everyone. (Depending your timezone lul .w. )

See ya next time! Vivi out!~

[areolni]

not sure how generations works (ive never played it [YET] yeah yeah fake fan whatever) but i keep thinking of @kiwi-the-bird-and-fruit 's lansoni generation au, amy and lancelot specifically.

they've written the conversations between sonic and amy/lance, but what happens when amy and lancelot have a conversation with each other?

-

There she was, the doppelganger of his dear mother. Sir Lancelot always found it hard to rip his eyes away from the pink hedgehog whenever she came into view. Everything about Amy Rose was exactly like his mother's asides appearance – her wide smile that bore a certain softness, her cheerful tone filled with energy and wisdom, and the confident yet elegant gait whenever she strode. A pang in his chest told him that it would be wise to trust her. If she was indeed anything like Lady Nimue, he hoped that he could confide in her.

Was this really his best choice?

No, there wasn't time for contemplation or doubt. Sonic would return at any moment. He had to solve this predicament before it worsened. Amy is right there. Just… do it.

"My lady?"

"Uwaagh…! You scared me! Hi, Shad…- Ooo…"

Amy gave a look of surprise, fluttering her eyes as she did so. Before her stood in mirrored copy of Shadow, dressed with armor from head to toe. It wasn't the first time she has seen Lancelot, but finally meeting him face-to-face was quite a feat.

"You're… Sir Lancelot, right?"

"Indeed. My apologies for startling you, Amy Rose."

"Oh, don't worry about it. What brings you here?"

"I…" Words died in his throat. It was quite nerve-wracking to talk to someone who appeared like your mother, not to mention to also ask for help. Lancelot was a knight who held his head up with pride; he wasn't one to ask for help. "I require assistance."

"Oh!" Amy only grew more surprised by the second. First, Lancelot approached her, and now he was asking for help? Just as she was about to ask, her eyes caught the sight of Lancelot's lips subtly pressing into a thin line. That was when she knew where this was going. "It's about Sonic, isn't it?"

"Ah… Yes indeed." Of course, Amy would have known. His mother was smart and thus, so would she. It was pointless to dilly dally when the subject was already known.

"Sir Sonic… He has deliberately been avoiding me. I am afraid that I might have done something to upset him."

"Oh… Oh, no no no. I'm sure you did nothing wrong! It's just… You know Sonic. Running is what he does best."

"My apologies, I don't quite understand. How does this correlate to the matter at hand?"

"Well… He just doesn't want to think of the inevitable."

The inevitable. The inevitable of returning to Camelot once more. The inevitable of leaving Sonic once more. Neither Lancelot nor Sonic wished to think about it, but it was the truth.

"… Does my presence truly hurt him greatly?"

"I… Well… I think it's just a harsh reminder to him. But trust me when I say he's good at heart! I'm sure you know that."

"Very much so. Regardless…" Lancelot found himself drifting away, his gaze now staring at the white space ahead of him. "My heart aches. I wish to alleviate the pain, but he refuses to give me a chance. So terribly adamant on saving the world…"

"Oh, Lancelot… I'm sure he thinks it's a good way to distract himself, but we all know that it's only going to make things worse for him. He'll come around eventually. I'll talk to him. Don't you worry, okay?"

The knight nodded, albeit slow and reluctant. "Thank you, my lady."

" 'Amy' is just fine, hehe."

She could get used to Lancelot, for sure.

[kyanite-shards]

Okay, so I was mega inspired by Dekkiidan’s post on his Hearthian Headcanons, and figured I should compile a list of the ones I had specifically regarding hearthian eggs.

So if speculative biology of a fictional alien species is not your cup of tea, please just keep on scrolling~ Thaaaanks! ::}

⬇️

My headcanons have mostly been inspired by reptiles and birds, more so than amphibians. Mostly because it feels fitting for the Hearthians' new terrestrial lifestyle, since their ancestors evolved out of the water and all.

That, and I’m more familiar with it, so it’s easier for me to think about, lol!

As much as I love all of the tadpole takes, I think having an alternate take just opens up other possibilities for story telling. ::}

Hearthians

They are hermaphrodites, capable of carrying or fertilizing eggs.

They’re also capable of parthenogenesis. (Because I think species that are capable of this are cool as hell.)

Specifically automictic parthenogenesis. Meaning that the offspring is half a clone of their parent rather than a full on copy.

This would also allow an ace hearthian who wants to carry the ability to do so.

There would need to be some additional environmental factors or something to trigger this process. (Which I’ll be honest I haven’t come up with anything concrete for this yet 😅)

Typically they carry only one egg, carrying two isn’t unheard of, it’s just really uncommon.

Gravid period lasts for about 3 months.

Eggs

Eggs are hard shelled (initially somewhat soft, but then calcify a sturdier shell after a few hours)

About the size of an ostrich egg, but more elongated/oblong in shape, similar to that of a kiwi egg.

The shells have faint patterns on them that often resemble the scale pattern of the carrying parent.

Eggs are kept safe and warm in a communal hatchery. (Fun fact: when doing all this research I learned that ostriches actually have communal nests! Neat!)

Candling techniques are used to check the viability of eggs, and monitor their development/growth.

All adult Hearthians are taught how to candle eggs, and they rotate hatchery duty (community is always actively taking care of the next generation in one way or another)

Eggs are buried in warm, damp, shallow soil until they’re ready to hatch. (I'd like to think the hatchery would be somewhere adjacent to a hot spring, and the warm soil acts a natural incubator)

They can also be warmed by body heat (technically even heat lamps), but buried in soil is usually the preferred method. (I just really like the symbolism of new hatchlings coming from the earth, they are named after rocks n’ all ::} )

Incubation period lasts for about 6 months.

Hatchlings

All hatchlings are communally raised.

Though it’s not uncommon for a hatchling to get attached to a particular caretaker.

The reverse is also true, a caretaker getting attached to a particular hatchling. (Genetic relation is not required for either of these attachments to take place)

And for my own peace of mind: They do keep parentage records, purely to keep track of who's genetically related to who.

There you have it folks! 🥚

Thanks for reading! ::}

SELF INSERT X PETE DINUNZIO

REMAKE!

I accidentally made the hat blue, it was supposed to be green.. whoopsie.

anywho, I’m thinking ab making radley (self inserts name) into an alien fanatic over anything else, and maybe a bit of a robot fan too.

Undiagnosed autistic boy who was accused of being a ‘robot from outer space’ growing up for how different he was, (like from the move ‘meet Dave’)

he now thinks he’s a robot.

Italian and kiwi, is really pale and has darker hair then the rest of his family since he doesn’t leave his room a lot.

pathetically weak, like, has a terrible iron deficiency and whines about the softer punches thrown at him, skinny too, short, can’t run for shit- the complete opposite of his older brother.

never takes his hate off.

thinks comics are made by the government and are actually about secret experiments they plan on making real (he’s a theorist-)

thinks cats are aliens, thinks the Eltingville club is super cool and wants to join but isn’t allowed to (I mean look at him-)

try’s to communicate with stray cats to get them to spill mars’ secrets (and to pet them)

plays softball but is terrible at it, likes to draw a lot too.

has older brother who is sorta buddies with the club members since he too is a comic reading incel, drags Radley to the comic book store to ‘educate’ him.

also has three little sisters, so he’s basically the middle child.

particularly close with Jerry the most, likes to ramble out dnd oc’s though radley has never played the game.

is online friends with Josh and they talk about space and alien movies, like Star Wars, and like to review or show eachothers fanfiction, they don’t know they’re online friends tho when they see eachother irl since their accounts remain anonymous.

is on Pete’s good side since radley is always up to watch a horror movie, even though it gives him terrible nightmares and paranoia, he’s more interested in the special effects and making of movies then anything. But he does find monsters cool at least.

Dresses up as a green character every year for Halloween.

for every science assessment he either makes a classic planetarium with small balls, or makes a tiny functioning rocket ship.

‘Plays’ with his action figures, has been ruthlessly bullied for it when he was caught by his brother.

Doesn’t know he ain’t straight yet, the only reason he even buys comics (aside from his brother forcing him to) is because he finds the men in the comics hot.. (lobo, hellboy, joker, most dc heroes..)

has mini binoculars on him at all times (to stare at the moon, and girls.. and boys.)

got braces wayyyy too late, is now 16 and he finally has them. Yeesh.

has his ears pierced but was called gay so he doesn’t wear them anymore, the holes closed up and he’s sad ab it :(

thanks to him being Italian he’s really hairy everywhere BUT his face, cannot grow any facial hair and is really envious of his brother and Pete.

works at the comic book store despite his beliefs, doesn’t like joe that much but is a suck up. Is good friends with iron jaw, the customers call him ‘metal maw’ to match due to their braces.. he doesn’t mind too much tho.

secretly likes mlp, relates to fluttershy the most.

CRAVING LONESOME WANDERINGS

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU VERY WELL, SO, I DIDN'T REALLY WANT TO, REVEAL, SO, BY NATURE, I JUST LET WHATEVER HAPPENS HAPPEN; BY NATURE, I DON'T REALLY DESIRE. IT IS A NATURAL OCCURRENCE RATHER THAN A DECISION.

but, i like it. like, really like it.

walking to a grocery store

i haven't gone on a walk alone in a while, and i am reminded of that in this moment. the only thing that would make it better is if i didn't have to carry this water bottle. i think i will set it down somewhere.

Rolling Stone wrote that, as a band, you’re 

i set the water bottle down and kick an upside down cockroach who reveals in the moment that it is still alive, just upside down. i find ________ at the superstore, cole's, at the world square in thaitown. it is very busy. i get you a pack and me a pack. i also get twisties which i discover are just cheetos. and the aussie oatmeal for cameron. water boils way quicker here. 

brain, so impatient, restless brain, cannot sit still, burning out, slowly, slowly, inability to maintain or retain, forgetful, what did i even buy today? i don't remember.

i do remember the rupture, the split, the tear, the melting of the glue between my soles and the rubber... so help me god, let me get everything i need to get home from australia safely. aussie oats, for cameron, thank you to cameron, kiwi lollies for, aesop, guitars, new shoes, old shoes, freezer bag full of, saline rinse, antibiotics (just in case), cds, macbook, passport, iphone, chargers, keys, everyone is drinking boba. or bubble tea. do i want one? i have to download this app. i'll download the app. everyone is looking at me and he said he likes my look. i'm wearing sweatpants. i look at the drinks in the app and sit in the store and decide i do not want one. i am walking. there is a kid eating a snack on an urban doorstep. is it beautiful because i am alone? because i've been so aloof? am i feeling inspired because of that thing or because i am feeling inspired? don't trust your tired self.

walking back, water bottle acquired, untouched; cockroach in the same place i left it, still on its back, still not moving, still alive,

__________ is resilient, and i think it will find its balance eventually.

Favorite Fandom moments (this got way too long who is surprised) Thanks for tagging me: @tellmegoodbye @nisbanisba @reyesstrand

@welcometololaland @rmd-writes

@she-walked-away @everlastingday @strandnreyes

1. I binged season 1-3 in December 2022 by myself. A fun fact about me, i HATE procedurals. Usually I can manage a few episodes and enjoy them and then I think the formula of episodic rescues/crime solving is too boring. I thought I could maybe stay for the hot gay dudes I saw on my dash. But I fell in love with so much more than that. I rarely have shows with ensamble casts where I genuinely really like all characters. Michelle is the only exception. Goddamn that woman should only play faeries for the rest of her life. And weirdly, something I appreciate is watching these three seasons all by myself. It allowed me to really take the episodes in without any outside opinions or controversies or even over-hyping through others. I loved the show all by myself. And though a part of me wishes I would have found it earlier, I find a lot of joy in having these three seasons locked deep in my own heart, just for me.

2. Okay after all that too long blabbering, of COURSE I have to say the friends I made. Friendship has always been my biggest source of joy. Always. And I'm so blessed to have so many friends in my life, and more blessed to add people on my dash to them. If we text sometimes/often/daily or I just like your personal posts, know that I really care for what you put out there. You all matter to me, and I mean that.

3. Meeting some of you peeps IRL. And hoping to expand the list 💓

4. Sending out Holiday cards. Truly, I love doing it so much, even if the production last year was stressful I hope this year people will still be here and be interested in getting my lil card. And ofc I loved the ones I got back.

5. How creative and wonderful this fandom is. We are quite smol, but look at the big things we create. 2022 was the toughest year of my life, and a lot of what followed was an ebb and flow mentally, but one thing thatr eally helped me was to be more creative. And I thank every one of you who has left comments or sweet tags or created something themselves that keeps me motivated.

6. The Hello! Rafa/Ronen photoshoot . Still lives in my head rent-free.

7. Having people beta-read my humble writing. It helps me a lot! Just like reading fics by people whose writing I admire (y'all basically).

8. Fandom events. Like Gotcha charity, but also the Holiday exchanges and the watch parties and the server and so many little things in the cosmos of this fandom.

9. Even the disagreements. Idk. Very family dynamic to me and I don't mean to downplay how marginalized people are affected by some of it. But you tell me you hate someone's outfit and I will lovingly side-eye you like a cousin. It kind of is necessary to the eco system of fandom to not all be harmonious.

10. Most of all, how welcoming this fandom was from the very beginning. I try to be part of that. If I ever annoy you with engaging with personal posts, that's why. I want you to feel heard.

OPEN TAG (please use it if you want to participate and tag me back so I see!)
