Prisma Realms - Wrap Around Death By Raina Rainbows

This is a short story written by Raina Rainbows where this is me exploring my characters Daniel and Rowan.

The year was 1974 and Daniel Walker was finally turning 35. Today should have been a happy day, it was the man’s birthday. Daniel grabs the mint green suit Rowan had bought for him during his 31st birthday when they were first dating. Rowan was the sun and he was the moon. 

Daniel had placed the suit on where he was wearing flannel pants, the first time he felt embarrassed to wear it but when he saw her smiling at him. Whenever Rowan smiled at him, all he could do was smile back and forget the world. 

This birthday he was dreading it, he was 35 and been dating that fire head woman for five years now where they still didn’t have true love magic. 

Daniel then grabbed his briefcase, he paused as he saw Rowan. Rowan was wearing a mint green dress that hugged at her curves and showed off her strong dark freckle arms. Daniel blush, even her pumpkin hair was done for his birthday. 

“Good thing we were wearing green! Don’t want to pinch my honey bunny!” Said Rowan as she let out a giggle and opened a portal to the court building. 

Daniel stood there, he felt frozen by just staring at her gaze. 

“You coming honey?” Question Rowan as her hand reaches out for Daniel’s hand. 

“Y-yeah!” Said Daniel as he blushed and grabbed Rowan’s hand. 

The two-headed through the portal as Rowan then shut it behind her, the two holding hands as they walked together. Eyes glaring at them due to their outfits, was St. Patty’s which they didn’t have to worry about getting pinch. 

“So?” Question Rowan with a smile upon her face. 

“So?” Question Daniel as he stared at Rowan with an anxious smile. 

Something was on Daniel’s mind but he couldn’t pin it down or could he? 

“There ya two are!” Said Charlie as she smiled while the three entered the courtroom. 

“Look who is wearing green for once!” Giggle Rowan as she sat down at the desk that held the typewriter. 

“I’m sick and tired of getting pinched by my little sister and sibling.” Said Charlie with a sarcastic voice as she smiled. 

“Fair enough.” Said Rowan. 

“Move aside!” Said Benjamin as he spread his strong arms out making clear. 

“Benji, ya not wearing green?” Question Daniel with a soft smile as a bit of his southern accent came out. 

“Yeah partner!” Giggle Rowan as she held her mouth and blush. 

Daniel blush as he looks away realizing his southern accent pops out. 

“My socks are green!” Said Benji as he lifted his pants legs up and showed. 

“And you?” Question Daniel as he gave Reese a look. 

“I got a green bead necklace on, good enough.” Said Reese as she bent down and pulled Benji’s pants legs up so his green shamrock socks could be shown. 

“So aside?” Question Charlie. 

Harry smirked as he walked into his courtroom wearing his black robe with a green hat with a clover on it. 

“Harry, there!” Said Benji with a big smile on his face. 

“My babies!” Said Harry as he dropped his gavel and stood up fast to see Crow walking in holding a baby Birdie while both wore green. Crow wears a sexy mint green dress showing off her newer plus size body. 

“No one better pitch this cutie! Plus this -.” Said Harry as he blushed and stared into Crow’s chocolate brown eyes that were pale brown but still hints of hue. They prescribe sunglasses from the immortal realm hiding those beautiful eyes. 

“So the testing?” Question Harry as a scare look came across his face. 

“She just had low vision.is similar to mma!'' Said Crow. 

“Well even if she was fully blind we still adore our little winged Birdie!” Said Harry as he picked up Birdie and placed a kiss onto the baby face. 

Daniel pauses in his spot, frowning knowing someday that would never be him and Rowan. 

Daniel’s Thoughts 

How do they not have true love magic? Doesn’t make sense unless they do and Harry is hiding it. 

—--

A few cases had flown by and finally the gang was celebrating Daniel’s 35 birthday. Rowan brought the mint dark chocolate cake in on the table as she then placed a birthday cap onto Daniel’s head. 

But Daniel saw Rowan had frown but then quickly smiled. 

Daniel’s Thoughts 

Was something both bothering us? 

Rowan had cut the cake as everyone had dug in, Daniel couldn’t help but keep staring at his little niece. 

Daniel’s Thoughts 

Could me and Rowan get that far? What if we never had true love magic?! How could Harry be fine being mortal while his family was immortal?! 

Daniel had felt a few tears slipping down his face as he then walked away while slipping the birthday cap off of his head. But someone was following him, she then grabbed his hand. Daniel then looks behind him to see Rowan. 

Of course it was Rowan, always Rowan and he was afraid one day he wouldn’t be there for her. 

“I-I just need some space to clear these thoughts, ya know?” Question Daniel as more of his southern accent slips out. 

Daniel didn’t care at this point if his accent slipped out or not; he didn't want to ruin the birthday that Rowan had thrown for him. 

“Well something wrong?” Question Rowan as she grew closer to Daniel and cupped his soft face while looking down upon his face. 

Daniel had looked away, not wanting to speak the truth. Daniel signed as he sat down on the table within the courtroom, he then finally spoke. 

“I’m gonna die.” Said Daniel. 

“Why not go after an immortal man?” Question Daniel. 

Rowan’s eyes widened, her chocolate brown eyes began to form tears as she held Daniel closer to her chest. 

“R-Rowan?” Question Daniel. 

“Don’t ever say that, please! Will have true love someday.” Said Rowan as she began to tremble while holding Daniel. 

Daniel raises an eyebrow as he looks up at Rowan to see tears running down her face while wearing her makeup. But he knew she could quickly fix that. 

“But what if we do?” Question Daniel. 

“I don’t want to grow old on you.” Whimper Daniel as the words slip out. 

“Can’t we talk about this later?” Question Rowan as her hands curl into fists. 

“SO-sorry.” Whimper Daniel as he look away. 

Rowan had uncurl her fists as she cupped Daniel’s face making him look up at her face. 

“Let’s just say this immortal can’t wrap her brain around you dieing and well your the first ever mortal man I ever love.” Said Rowan as more tears slipped down her cheeks. 

Daniel’s light green eyes widened with horror. 

“I didn’t know-” Said Daniel. 

“I know baby, not your fault.” Said Rowan as she hugged Daniel. 

“If I do grow old I-” Said Daniel. 

Rowan had given him a look. 

“Just let me finish.” Said Daniel as he smiled. 

Rowan jumped as she held onto Daniel even tight and began to sob. She then looked up at Daniel as her lip criver while her hands went through Daniel’s grayish chocolate brown hair. It was a dark brown chocolate when they first met. 

But years had moved on and Daniel was growing older including Harry. 

“Just know if and once I grow old, I give ya permission to leave me. I don’t want you to see me. Ya know. But will have our fun while it lasts.” Said Daniel as he smiled and grabbed Rowan’s hand, he placed a kiss upon it. 

Rowan shakes her head as she gazes down at Daniel. 

“I understand but I could never.” Whimper Rowan. 

“Just not fair! That you-” Said Rowan as Daniel snuggled his face agaisnt’s Rowan’s strong face. 

“I know it’s not fair but it’s the sad truth and even I must face it.” Said Daniel as tears began to fall once again. 

“I promise I will get true love someday.” Said Rowan. 

“Don’t keep promises you can't keep pumpkin.” Said Daniel as he kissed Rowan’s lips. 

“I try to prove my love to you and it just won’t give but let's make the most of it.” Said Daniel as he placed the birthday cap back on and kissed Rowan’s hand once again as he headed out of the courtroom. 

Rowan stared at Daniel as he walked out and headed into Harry’s chambers, she wiped the tears away. 

“Maybe it’s my turn to prove to you.” Said Rowan as she placed a fake smile on and walked into the chambers. 

Rowan’s Thoughts 

Even if I can’t prove it, I’ll never leave his side even if age kills him.

Blessings and Tokens of Love: Unique Baby Christening Gifts in Ireland

Introduction: A baby's christening is a momentous occasion, filled with joy, love, and celebration. In Ireland, this significant event holds great cultural and religious importance. As family and friends come together to witness the sacrament, it is customary to present the child with a special christening gift, symbolizing blessings and well-wishes for their future. In this article, we explore the enchanting world of unique baby christening gifts in Ireland, offering inspiration and ideas for those seeking the perfect token of love for this cherished milestone.

Traditional Irish Keepsakes: Ireland boasts a rich heritage, and traditional christening gifts pay homage to its cultural roots. From beautifully crafted Celtic crosses and shamrock-adorned jewelry to intricately embroidered baby blankets and hand-knit Aran sweaters, these gifts serve as lasting symbols of Irish identity and blessings for the child's journey ahead.

Personalized Treasures: Personalized christening gifts are a wonderful way to create a lasting memory. Consider items such as engraved silver spoons or cups, monogrammed blankets or clothing, or custom-made photo albums filled with precious moments captured during the child's early days. These thoughtful, one-of-a-kind gifts become cherished heirlooms, treasured by the child and their family for years to come.

Spiritual and Religious Gifts: Given the religious significance of a christening, gifts with spiritual symbolism are particularly meaningful. A small silver or gold cross pendant, a guardian angel figurine, or a Bible engraved with the child's name and date of baptism are all popular choices. These gifts serve as reminders of faith and provide comfort as the child embarks on their spiritual journey.

Timeless Jewelry: Jewelry holds a special place in commemorating a baby's christening. Delicate bracelets, necklaces, or cufflinks adorned with birthstones, pearls, or intricate designs are classic gifts that can be cherished throughout a lifetime. Consider selecting a piece that can be passed down through generations, carrying with it the blessings of love and family ties.

Educational and Inspirational Gifts: Inspire the child's curiosity and love for learning by gifting educational and inspirational presents. Books with moral tales, personalized storybooks that feature the child as the protagonist, or a savings account to start their future education fund are all thoughtful options. These gifts not only celebrate the child's spiritual beginning but also encourage their personal growth and development.

Gift Vouchers and Experiences: For those who prefer a more flexible approach, gift vouchers for baby boutiques, toy stores, or children's clothing shops allow the child's parents to choose a gift that best suits their needs and preferences. Alternatively, consider presenting the family with an experience voucher for a day out at a local zoo, theme park, or a family photoshoot to create lasting memories.

Conclusion: Choosing a baby christening gift in Ireland is an opportunity to convey blessings, love, and well-wishes for a child's future. Whether opting for traditional Irish keepsakes, personalized treasures, spiritual symbols, timeless jewelry, educational gifts, or experiences, the key is to select a gift that resonates with the family and carries heartfelt sentiments. By presenting a unique and thoughtful token of love, you contribute to the celebration of this cherished milestone and create lasting memories for the child and their family.

Title: Forever

Pairing: Corpse Husband x female!reader

Requested by: Anonymous

Request: How about one where Corpse proposes? With flowers and everything! Like he went out of his comfort zone to propose to you in public because he felt like you deserved it!

Word Count: 2225

Warnings: luff and some swearing

Note: The images doesn’t belong to me, all the credits go to the respective creators. I only made the collage. Also, I will not make anything to make Corpse uncomfortable, if he ends saying he doesn’t like fanfiction about him, I will delete this.

                                                           ♦⋅☆⋅♦

The little black box, with that important thing hidden inside, weighed in the pocket of his dark jeans as he headed for her condo. Corpse's breathing was fast, his hands were shaking immensely, and his heart was beating fast, so fast that it seemed to want to escape his chest.

He strode, always faster than anyone, avoiding people who came in the opposite direction as far away as possible. The further away the better.

Swallowing hard feeling a lump in his throat, Corpse looked at the sky, which at that moment was a sea of red, orange and yellow, indicating that it would not be long before dark and for the moon to replace the sun.

Grabbing his phone and watching the time, he quickened his pace even more, playing with the rings on his long fingers and feeling his back cold with the nervous sweat.

He was ready, however, and he was sure that Y/N was the one. Since that day they met at the small cafe, he knew she was his forever. That day Corpse had risked going out for the first time in a very long time, trying to win even though he knew he would never really be able, at least not as he almost did now with her. That red-haired employee looked at him bored - certainly tired and dissatisfied with his own life, but who wasn’t? - his deep voice stuttering nervously as he tried to place the order. He succeeded there, and the minutes that it took the employee to complete it were truly terrifying. He said a small thank you, handed over the money, and in the moment he took the cup his hands were shaking so much that he thought he was going to drop it. Everyone was looking at him, Corpse was able to feel their gaze and there was nothing he wanted to do but disappear from there. But then an angel came up to him, gently touched his hands assuring him that everything was fine, and offering him a big, beautiful smile that made him dreamy for the rest of the day. Cliché he had the notion of that, but so incredibly good that remembering it makes him feel butterflies in his belly.

The memory was long enough to reach its destination, and the nerves tripled at the moment he saw the condominium of white and brown buildings. He was quick to send a message to let her know that he was already there, and it didn't take long to receive one in exchange of her saying she was going down as fast as she could.

Corpse took a deep breath, leaning against the wall with the white paint a little chipped and in need of a new coat of paint, and reached into his pocket feeling the velvet box stroking his fingerprints. It was still there, safe and heavy with all hopes for a bright future.

"Hey, love." Y/N’s sweet voice sounded nearby, along with the sound of her elegant footsteps.

"Hey, babe.." Corpse greeted pulling the mask away slightly - he couldn't get out without it, even on that very important day - and kissed his girlfriend's black-colored lips (she started to like seeing herself in black since they were together). It was a gentle kiss but full of longing and security, and especially full love. Her lips tasted like blackberries, which he loved, and the black lipstick helped to highlight the beautiful features of her face that only left him even more enchanted. How he was lucky enough to have someone so wonderful in his shitty life? This was something that Corpse questioned every day…

Y/N's eyes were bright when they pulled away and she smiled sweetly. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. I missed you."

"As did I, baby. Where do you want to go?"

"I thought it would be good for us to take a little walk."

"Are you sure? We can stay home if you want to, or if you don’t feel comfortable." Oh, how he loved her. Y/N was so understanding and attentive, and if she was another girl, she would have left his sorry ass a long time ago. And yes, Corpse was uncomfortable being on the outside, in plain sight, but it was something he wanted to do for her.

"I'm sure, let's go. It will be dark soon."

Y/N was quick to get to his left side, interlacing their fingers when they joined hands, Corpse's bigger hand practically swallowing hers.

Without further ado they began to walk calmly, Corpse remembering to slow down knowing that it would be difficult for his girlfriend to keep up with his hurried pace.

"I was thinking that we could go to dinner at that restaurant that you like." He informed her. It was a small and quiet restaurant, and they had been there before. It had gone well and without any problem. That was how he wanted it that night.

"Sure, I'd love it as long as it's okay with you." Y/N looked at him again with an uncertain look.

Corpse stroked her small hand. "I'll be fine as long as I'm with you."

The pink tone on her cheeks and the passionate smile with which she presented him made it all worthwhile.

On the way to the restaurant they talked about their days. Y/N told him how it had been a little busy day (she was a graphic designer) and she had already finished the cover of a fantasy book, and given it to the writer when he decided he wanted to change something at the last minute. She managed to do so, but not without feeling that she would tear her hair out in frustration. Corpse pulled her closer to him and assured her that everything was fine, that she was great at what she did and that better days would come.

He was telling her about the two-hour stream playing with the friends he had made, and the music he was writing, when they finally arrived.

They went in, asked for a table further away and without much trouble went to sit in their seats, with the menu on the wooden table waiting for them. There was no need to look though, whenever they went there they asked for the same thing, so that's what they did. She ordered spaghetti bolognese and for him just a vegetable soup with chicken. To accompany, they ordered a small bottle of wine. Corpse's left leg swung quickly, while discreetly touching his pocket.

"Is everything alright, baby?" She asked at the same time that the food was being served.

"Yes, don't worry."

Y/N didn’t stop looking at him with concern, but she did not insist. While they ate they were talking about nothing and everything, enjoying the feeling of being in public in what had been a long time. The restaurant was almost empty, with just another couple at a distant table with their backs to them, which made him more comfortable. It was small with the floor, tables and chairs all in wood, with brick walls with a rustic effect, and small iron lamps lighting the place almost lovingly.

Time passed and Corpse's nervousness only grew. They ate and drank wine, enjoyed dessert, and were happy and smiling.

Corpse was helping Y/N to put on the black leather jacket - her outfit consisted of comfortable shoes, red pants and a cute black tank top, as well as the delicate shamrock necklace he had given her on their one year anniversary -, when she questioned him curiously. "We are going home now?

"Let's go out for a little while." The beautiful girl's surprised look did not escape him, even he was surprised that he was succeeding to do that.

They left the restaurant after paying and ventured into the city, holding hands and full of soft words. Every now and then, Y/N would lift his hand to her lips and give a small kiss on the skin full of protruding veins.

The stars shone in the middle of the night, the moon was full and round, high and illuminating the path to the park. There were wooden benches every few meters, tall street lamps peeking out near the trees and the round lake by the children's swing. Y/N used to go there in her childhood.

They sat on the grass by the lake, their feet immersed in the cold water that reflected the moon. They were silent for a moment, completely at peace watching the couple of swans swimming nearby, gently cutting the water and with their long white necks almost intertwined.

It was now. Now was the moment.

"Y / N…"

"Yes, Corpse?" She looked at him with the stars shining in her eyes, and leaving him speechless.

Corpse’s heart sped up, blood pounded in his ears and his hands trembled when he opened his coat and removed the flower he had protected in the inner pocket. The black rose was in perfect condition, sparkling with the small silver particles that embellished the petals.

He handed it over to Y/N, who accepted her happily with a smile almost as big as his love for her.

"Oh, babe, it's beautiful! Thank you so much."

He smiled shyly, with extremely sweaty palms, and watched as the girl in front of him admired the flower, without knowing that she was also being admired by him.

"I do not deserve you." He said at last, immediately regretting it seeing her smile fading.

"What are you saying?"

"I-"

"Babe, you’re really scaring me right now. What's going on?" Y/N's gentle hands came to his face, taking off his mask (which was fine by him because he trusted her absurdly, and they were alone), and caressed the skin of his cheeks with concern.

"Let me talk before I turn myself into a coward once again. I don't deserve you, I have a full sense of that, you're too good for me and kinder than anyone will ever be. I'm not a religious person, my life didn't allow me to be , but since we’re together I pray every day that you would not wake up one day, and realize that it’s not me who you want by your side."

"It will never happen, you are everything I ever wanted." She whispered.

"I am not... but you are what I always desired." He smiled. "You take my problems when you shouldn't, you help me and you take care of me. I can talk to you about everything because I know my secrets with you are safe. You support me when I doubt myself, and you do it all without asking for anything in return. "

"I just want your love."

Corpse kissed her, feeling the soft brush of her lips against his. Just a simple kiss from her was enough to calm him down for good. "You already have it." He assured her, then touched the velvet box and took it out of his pocket. Y/N's shocked sigh filled the air, and she raised her hands to her mouth. "And I know that I will never be enough, that I will never be good enough... But I will try. From sunrise to bedtime I swear to love you and try to make you happy every day. And if one day I don't, I know that I wasted the best thing I have in my fucking life... "

The tears overflowed from her eyes, sliding down her face in rivers of happiness. "Corpse…"

Corpse opened the box showing her what he had been hiding for several months. It was a simple ring - too simple for her in the boy's opinion, but that was how she liked it - made of silver with an oval diamond in the middle, flanked by two smaller ones in square shape, and many smaller ones around it, embellishing the circle.

"Y/N…" He sighed deeply, more sure than ever in his life, even though trying to control his anxiety. "Do you want to marry me?"

The girl threw herself at him, hugging him tightly and crying in his chest. "Yes, yes! Of course I do! Of course I want to marry you."

He laughed happily and deeply, smiling so much that he thought the corners of his lips must reach his ears. He kissed the top of her head, inhaling her perfume and murmuring how much he loved her... But mainly thanking her for loving him.

After a few minutes of laughter and sobbing, Y / N walked away with red, wet cheeks and slightly swollen eyes, but looking more beautiful than ever.

"How long…?"

"Much too long." Gently he took her hand and stuck the engagement ring on her left ring finger, where it glowed as if it belonged there. "I should have done this a long time ago."

"It's beautiful." Y/N said in admiration. "I love you."

"Not more than I love you."

They shared another kiss, this one longer than the others, and left their foreheads gently touching each other, with their eyes closed and wanting to record the moment forever in their memory.

"Thank you." He whispered.

"I’m the one who should be thanking you…"

"I knew you were forever. I've known it since that day at the cafe."

"Yes…" Y/N agreed. "Forever."

In a Pinch

Daryl was busy getting dressed for the day, he smiled as he adjusted his top on the mirror and did up the second button to the top. He pulled on his jeans and then headed to the living room.

“What are you doing?” Carl asked as he stepped into the room.

“Getting ready to start breakfast what are you doing?” Daryl asked eyeing his son.

Carl didn’t respond as he stepped up and pinched Daryl’s arm. “Son of a bitch kid what the hell?!”

Carl snickered. Rick stepped into the room Judith bouncing in his arms, she was in a sage green dress and her hair was up on little green bows. Daryl eyed his family for a moment and then blinked in realization. Rick sat Judith down who toddled to her brother for an up.

Rick stepped to Daryl kissing his cheek and pinching his ass. “Rick!”

“You’re not wearing green baby, best get it on before we go to your brothers for dinner. He’d leave you with so many pinches you’d cry.”

Daryl huffed and stepped back into their room, well he was going to wear this.

He went through every outfit he had. “Babe!” Daryl yelled.

“What is it Dare?” Rick asked as he walked into their room, he smiled admiring Daryl’s shirtless frame.

“I don’t have any damn green.”

“Well isn’t that a shame. I’ll find you something put your shirt back on.” Daryl huffed as he put the buttons back up.

He dressed and guarded his arms as he walked out of their bedroom. Carl came up to inspect him. “Where’s the green?”

“Don’t got any kid.” Daryl replied preparing to fight him off.

Judith and Rick returned from the other room. “Before you pinch your dad Judith’s got something for him.”

“Here dadda.” Judith smiled as she placed a green beaded shamrock necklace over his head. He smiled and kissed her forehead.

“Thanks darlin’”

“Dang it.” Carl grunted as he sat and waited for breakfast, Rick and Daryl made pancakes and Rick being the kind of dad he was dyed them green with food coloring.

They sat together and ate, Daryl fed Judith her pancakes coaxing the color from her every few bites. “What color are they sweet-pea?”

“Gween.”

“That’s right baby green.”

“Gween.” She giggled clapping her hands together. Daryl smirked feeding her another bite. The family sat together talking about plans.

“I’ll drop Carl off at school, drop by Shane and Lori’s and pick up those cupcakes, and then head back home.”

“Alright Judy and I can maintain the fort. Can’t we baby girl?”

She nodded reaching over to Carl who kissed her forehead and grabbed his backpack. “See you dad!”

“Stay safe done pinch all the kids without green tops.”

“Yes sir.”

“I’ll pinch you if you do.”

“I’m in green.” Carl said proudly.

“Not everyone has green Carl, and that won’t stop me from getting you.” Daryl snickered, Rick kissed his forehead and headed out for the day.

Judith smiled as Daryl picked her up and got her set up on the floor with her toys. His phone buzzed and he picked up quick. “Little brother hey,” Merle smiled. “You guys bringing dessert and rolls still right?”

“That’s the plan. Lori and Shane send their love and are making the cupcakes for us.”

“Lori’s cupcakes are far better then her god awful pancakes.” Merle laughed. “Anyway alright so you got those. Just making sure wife is all fussy over it since it’s our first family dinner you know.”

“Can’t believe she agreed to marry you.” Daryl chuckled.

Merle made a grunting noise. “Oh shit.”

“What?” Daryl asked worried about his brother.

“Little lady left her lunch gotta go I’ll see you later.” Merle groaned. Daryl chuckled, he liked knowing his brother had mellowed out with a wife and a step daughter. He also liked knowing his son and his cousin were friends before they became family.

He sat with Judith who handed him a block, they worked on letters and colors while waiting to head to dinner.

They colored, watched a Disney movie, danced to some music and then Daryl got her down for a nap. Rick came home from errands and picking up the cupcakes.

They were vanilla dyed green with rainbow swirled frosting and gold sprinkles. “These look awesome.”

“Yes they do.” Rick smirked. “She offered to teach you how to make them if you’d like one day. Said Judith could come play.”

“She’s a handful that one,” he smirked as he leaned over and kissed Rick. Their day went by smooth Judith napped till they needed to pick up Carl. They put the cupcakes and the rolls in the trunk and piled in together.

“Carl!” Judith yelled happily as he jumped in. He kissed Judith’s forehead as they headed to Uncle Merle’s.

“How was school?”

“Good had my jacket zipped up and got pinched.”

Daryl snorted. “Serves you right.”

Rick chuckled as Carl rolled his eyes waving out the window to some pads. “Why didn’t we just bring Sophia with us?”

Rick blinked and Daryl looked at him. “I’ll call Merle.”

Merle picked up. “Ello’?”

“Why aren’t we bringing Sophia with us?”

Merle was silent. “Well that woulda been the smart plan, Rick suggest it?”

“Carl actually.” Daryl chuckled. “You’re already here aren’t you?”

“Just pulled up see you at my house.”

“Next time we should ask the kids for plans.” Merle chuckled.

They drove to Merle’s house which wasn’t very far away. Merle pulled up behind them Sophia ran behind Carl with a smile her green skirt swaying as they laughed and headed inside. Daryl held Judith and the rolls while Rick carried in the cupcakes.

“Carol.” Rick smiled as she greeted them at the door. Carol smiled hugging Daryl and pecking Judith on the cheek.

“Rick, Daryl happy to have you.”

The family all made their way inside the kids running around while Judith made attempts to follow them around. She was tripping over herself while Merle watched her chuckling.

“Little pups not good on her feet.” Merle chuckled.

“She’s trying.” Daryl smiled as she came to him. “Aren’t you darlin.”

“Dadda!” She grabbed for his necklace and ripped. He yelped in surprise as the beads popped. Merle noted that he now had no green on and instantly pinched him.

“God damnit.”

“Sucker.” Merle smirked. Randomly throughout the day someone would attack Daryl with pinches. Rick made sure to be nice and gave him a kiss whenever he did it but Daryl was still not enjoying the pinches.

Merle laughed and his drink spilt. “Ah crap.” He went to change and didn’t have another green shirt and hoped nobody noticed.

They sat around together enjoying the cupcakes as each other’s company as Merle sat down. Daryl looked him over with a smirk and leaned up pinching him.

The two brothers soon began to fight and argue as they pinched one another, Carol and Rick laughed at their attacks on one another. Sophia and Carl soon got into it pinching their respective fathers.

Daryl and Merle looked between one another and picked up their kids tickling them and chasing them around. Judith cuddled into Rick while the others laughed and chased each other. The brothers soon sat back down together their kids collapsing into them. Carol kissed Merle and Rick coaxed Daryl into his arms as they listened to the kids tell stories about the leprechauns bringing gold and searching rainbows.

Carol snickered pinching Merle’s butt as he got up to get them both a drink. He smiled winking at her and rolling his eyes.

He loved his little family and was glad his brother, husband, and kids were a part of it.

WALK, WALK, FASHION BABY | The Duchess of Cambridge returned to green for her final day of her March 2020 visit to the Republic of Ireland. Underneath a green Alexander McQueen coat (which is not pictured), Catherine wore this green-and-white polka dot Suzannah dress, which she teamed with a Sezane ‘Artemis’ belt. She carried a Jimmy Choo Croc-Embossed Bag and wore her Ralph Lauren suede boots. Jewellery-wise, the Duchess wore two pieces by Daniella Draper: her Mini Cupid Hoops with Shamrock Charms Earrings and her matching necklace

5 March 2020. Ireland tour day 3. 

These two made their way to Galway after a short delay due to fog preventing their helicopter from taking off. Stating their day at Tribeton, TRH the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge engaged in a special event where they also met members of the Galway Circus. 

The Duke of Cambridge tried his hand at juggling and everyone was impressed at how well he did. 

After Tribeton, they visited a local pub, Tig Coili, where they were met with an Irish band and a baby! 

Outside the pub the couple did a quick walkabout, meeting members of the Galway community. 

After a quick outfit change, these two visited the Gaelic Athletic Association and tried their had at traditional Irish sports like hurling and Irish football. 

And that was kind of the end of the tour? We started on a high note and then we were all kinda scrambling to know if it had ended? While it was a bit of a subdued day it was interesting nonetheless. 

Now for my favorite part, fashion!

Kate was very chic in green. I think she may have over done the green overall during the tour, but it’s a color that looks good on her so I don’t have too many complaints. We saw the return of the green McQueen coat debuted in Bradford, like I knew we would, during this tour. Kate also debuted a new necklace that match her earrings that she debuted the day before. This Suzannah dress is a my favorite and I really wish she had worn it on day one instead of the Alessandra Rich dress. Hopefully we’ll see this one again, maybe at Wimbledon?

We ended the day and tour with sporty Kate. I was waiting for the orange-esque moment where Kate completed the colors of the Irish flag and she did not disappoint. While the Really Wild Clothing sweater is described as coral, it looks like a more orange leaning coral in photographs (I need someone to overlay her looks on the Irish flag plz). 

Final fashion thoughts on the tour as a whole:

Too much green. It was a bit too much after the first ensemble, and the green Suzannah dress on day 3 was honestly too much, even though the Suzannah dress is easily my favorite of the whole tour. 

Not enough Irish brands. I appreciate the coat from an Irish brand but the shamrock earrings? I think Kate could have found some jewelry through a local Irish brand that would have been just as lovely. 

Does Will change things up ever? I’d love to see Will in local brands too, like a sweater or a suit jacket or even shoes. Sartorial diplomacy doesn’t have to fall entirely on Kate and we know Will can do it as he did in Pakistan. 

We’re going to see these two again at the Commonwealth Day service on Monday 9 March 2020!

Shamrock to a Thistle Chapter 36 Wedding Day

She wakes before the alarm. She lays still, in her childhood bed. Tonight she will be laying with her husband. Her heart starts to pound and she does what she has done since childhood when she wakes up nervous. She recloses her eyes and says a prayer.

“Please Lord, that we will be all we need to each other.” She whispers before rising and starting her wedding day.

“Oh Lezy.” Her mum says as she watches her eat breakfast.

“What?”

“It will be the last time you eat at our table as an O’Leary.”

“Don't mum. I am already emotional.”

Jamie is pacing around his room at Lallybroch. He has been to the kirk this morning. He had been stopped dead at the beauty of it. The Christmas lights strung over the aisles, The large Christmas tree that still twinkles in the corner. The candles waiting to be lit up front. The poinsettias and evergreen branches. The soft green carpet laid out for his bride to walk on as she comes to him.

Ever since, he has been unable to be still. Pacing from one end of Lallybroch to the other. He looks around the room. The only thing still here are his wedding clothes. Everything else has been moved to their home. Their Home! The thought feels him with nervous anticipation. He can see himself carrying her over the threshold and up the stairs. He drops the thought there. He is trying desperately to work this day one moment at a time. One step at a time. He walks back downstairs.

“Son, if you keep pacing like that, you won’t have energy for the wedding night.” His da says.

“Trust me, I will.” His da laughs.

“A few more hours.” Jamie nods and resumes pacing.

Hair is last. So, Cully, Catalina, and her mum, start on her make-up. She wants it to look very natural. That takes skill. She is thankful they have that skill. She sits still and tries to control her breathing as they brush blush over her cheeks, add gold flakes to her eyes, and sweep on water proof mascara. They do each others after. Her mum clasps the pearl necklace on and soft gold hoops to her ears. She still wears her normal jeans and sweater.

“I recall doing this for ye before ye went tae school the first time.” His mam says as she brushes out his curls. He could have done it himself but, he knows it means a lot to her and to him also.

“I ken mam.” His voice is thick.

“The next woman tae do it will be yer wife. I am sae glad ye found her but I will miss my little boy.”

“I will always be yer little boy.” His throat is full of tears. He kens he will cry several times today.

“Oh aye. But not completely. Ye will belong tae Claire and she tae ye. It is as it should be. As the Father intended. Ye will understand when ye hold yer own child in yer arms. I am verra proud of ye son.” They are both crying.

“Time to head to Mid-Hope.” Cully announces and Claire's pulse jumps. Her mum takes her hand and they walk out together. She knows she won't see Jamie until she walks down the aisle but she will be close to him. They have made her future in-laws room the bride's room. It is where her dress waits.

“They are on the way. “ Fraser announces. Jamie jumps and his mam's hand on his shoulder steadies him. “We have him now Allina.” She nods and heads to her room to await her daughter-in-law.

“How did ye get through the waiting?” he asks his brother-in-law. Fraser laughs.

“The way ye are brother. Recall how nervous I was?”

“Truly nae. I was more concerned with seeing Claire.”

“Ah. Weel, I was counting down the seconds. What helped was the knowledge that as soon as Cully's hand was placed in mine, we would have every second for the rest of our life.” He smiles at him as his da and Harris enters.

“Ready tae get dressed son?”

“Aye. Just been waiting an eternity.” They all laugh as Jamie lays the auld kilt on the floor and starts to pleat it.

They slip the dress over her head and her mam turns her around to do it up. She loses her breath when she sees herself in it. A bride! A grown woman. Her hair is pulled into a twist to hold the veil. The embroidered top and waist is perfect. She touches the bluebells and forget-me-nots, the shamrocks and thistles, with reverence. It is absolutely perfect. Then Catalina slips the veil on and the first tear falls.

“My baby!” My mum whispers. “Look at you. So beautiful.”

He rolls himself into the kilt the way his da had taught him when he was thirteen. The way he would teach his own son. The linen shirt is added. The belt. The plaid over his shoulder and the brooch to hold it up. Lastly the shamrock ring on his right hand. He is ready.

“He is at the kirk.” Her dad reports. “Claire, you are breathtaking.”

“She is all grown up Bruce.” Her mum says.

“She is.” He gently kisses his wife. “You are breathtaking too.”

“Come Mrs. O'Leary. Time to be seated.” Harris says.

“Wait.” Claire is suddenly five again, watching her mum leave her kindergarten.

“Claire Lexy O’Leary. I love you. It will be okay. Your dad will take you to your husband.”

“Jamie.” Just saying his name steadies her. Her mum kisses her forehead and leaves on Harris' arm. Allina looks at her son's bride through a sheen of tears.

“I love ye tae daughter.” She hugs her before being seated by Fraser. They then return for the bridesmaids. Cully and Catalina hug her tight before the gentle strands of The Wedding Song from Peter, Paul, and Mary starts. She had decided when she was 5 that she would walk down the aisle to it. It is just her and her dad.

“How am I to give you away?”

“One step at a time. I will still be your little girl you will just have a son and eventually grandchildren.”

“Aye. Are you ready?” She nods and tightens her hand on his arm. They had timed it so she steps in on his arm at the line” a man shall leave his mother and a woman leave her home.” She meets her groom's awed eyes as she walks towards him with the line,” and they shall travel on to where the two shall be as one.” She stands still but inside trembling with anticipation as the song ends, a step away from Jamie.

“Who gives this woman to be married to this man?” Father O’Brien asks.

“Her mum and I do.” Her dad answers as he places the hand her holds into Jamie’s. He holds it tight as they kneel and pray. They rise and the good Father explains the sanctuary of marriage, the convent they are making between themselves and God.

“If anyone has just cause that these two can't be married, speak now our forever hold your peace.” A beat later he continues. “Will you.. “

“I will!” They both answer. Their parents join them and each light a candle handing them to their children. They take them and light the unity candle.

“As the candles representing the O’Leary and Anderson family were lit separately and joined together by Jamie and Claire, so now are they joined. The O’Leary and Anderson family are now joined.”

“Do you have the rings?” Catalina and Harris hand them over and they are placed on the bible. Father O’Brien blesses them with incense and prayers.

“Place it on his finger and repeat after me..”

The rings are slipped on and Father O'Brien smiles at them before turning them around. “It is my honor to introduce Mr. and Mrs. Anderson. Jamie and Claire, you may kiss.”

“I love ye Claire Anderson.” He says as he lowers his lips to hers.

“I love you so much my husband.” She meets his lips and a cheer goes up.

// Top’a the mornin’ to ya, Ozzy!

Ozzy looks up, his mug of adrenaline in his hand as he sees that his Mun was dressed in her Ninja Turtle pajamas, but had a light-up St. Patrick’s Day necklace around her neck. A shamrock bracelet was also around her wrist. He grins and chuckles, as she greets him with an Irish accent. He does the same, pretending to tip a hat.

“Top’a th’mornin’, Ais! Heheh, lookat’chu! All decked out fer Patty’s Day, huh?”

CELTIC CHRISTMAS NEWS

Welcome to the Celtic Christmas Podcast, helping you celebrate Christmas with Celtic musicians. I'm happy to share this bonus episode of the Celtic Christmas Podcast. I was only planning one episode this year, in December. But this show is brought to you through the generosity of the Patrons of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. We hit milestone on Patreon. And now you will get TWO episodes of this podcast.

I also decided to turn this normally 30 minute show into an hour-long special focusing on the music. That means I'm gonna talk less, and share more music. So let's get started...

First, I want to let you know that you can buy our Celtic Christmas compilation album on iTunes for just $4.99 or buy it on CD Baby. This a great way for you to support this podcast if you're not already a Patron of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast.

And if that's not good enough, you will find Celtic Heartstrings in our store. These are necklaces and Christmas ornaments made from the broken strings of my heart... I mean autoharp. You'll find several designs in my store at MageRecords.com. Follow the link in the shownotes.

Finally, if you want even more Celtic Christmas music, I have a playlist. You can listen to Celtic Christmas music on Spotify. And I would love to hear your song recommendations.

Check out this episode!
