Crowley: What's going on? Granny didn't visit me this morning in my office...
Professor Crewel: She must be busy.
Crowley: That's the problem, Professor Crewel! Granny has never missed a day! I'm her precious son after all!
Professor Crewel: ...
Professor Crewel: And all the students are her precious grandchildren. She has other things to do. You know that.
Crowley: But my freshly-baked pie—
"Oh dear. I didn't mean to be late. *soft chuckles*
Crowley and Professor Crewel: *both looking at the young and beautiful woman who entered their office*
Grandma MC: *has turned back to her youthful age of 25*
Grandma MC: *sets down the freshly-baked pie on Crowley's desk* I'll get you some refreshments. *smiles at him and leaves the room*
Crowley and Professor Crewel: ...
Crowley: That lady just now...
Professor Crewel: That's Granny.
Crowley: ...
Professor Crewel: ...
*immediately runs after her*
Ruggie: *clinging onto Granny's arm* How does it feel to be young again, Granny?
Grandma MC: I feel great. *chuckles* I have visited all the dorms without running out of breath.
Ruggie: Geez, Gran. You should do other things, not just visiting us from day to day.
Grandma MC: Oh. But it is my greatest joy to see you having classes.
Grandma MC: You were quite impressive in the animal linguistic class earlier.
Ruggie: Shyeheehee! Granny! You're making me blush!
Ace, Deuce, Epel, and Grim: *who looks annoyed*
Ortho: I'm sensing jealousy.
Ace: He's getting all the attention!
Deuce: *nods in agreement*
Epel: She's still our Granny. And with the way Ruggie-senpai is acting, it feels like he wants himself to only be her grandson.
Ortho: Well... Wasn't he the original favorite?
Grim: Excuse me? I'm the favorite! Mryah!
Floyd: *suddenly arrives in his broom and snatches Granny*
Ruggie: Wha— Hey!
Floyd: Granny~!
Grandma MC: *was startled for a second, then smiled* Are you skipping class today, son?
Floyd: P.E. is boring. I would rather spend time with you, Granny~.
Grandma MC: *chuckles*
Ruggie: *runs after them* Hey, Floyd! That's foul!
Ace: Yeah! It's supposed to be our turn! Hey!
Grim: GRANNY! MRYAH!!!
Deuce: When did we start snatching Granny out of nowhere?
Epel: I don't know...
Crowley: *seems exhausted from trying to locate her*
Grandma MC: What happened, son? Are you alright?
Crowley: Yes, Granny...
Grandma MC: ...
Grandma MC: You can rest your head here on my shoulder.
Crowley: Thank you, Granny. *leans to her and rests his head on her shoulder*
Crowley: ...
Crowley: Granny.
Grandma MC: Yes?
Crowley: I feel like a small child next to you.
Grandma MC: *chuckles* Well, you are my son.
Crowley: *squeals*
Leona: Why are we even banned from seeing Granny for a week?
Vil: You have uselessly fought on whose country she's going to spend a vacation in.
Malleus: We all know they would rather be in Briar Valley.
Idia: Um... That's a pretty boring place.
Malleus: Did you say something, Shroud?
Idia: No. I mean. Yeah. It's quite breezy there.
Azul: We should design an itinerary.
Kalim: Yes! Scalding Sands will be our first stop!
Jamil: Kalim, you're not helping.
Riddle: Queendom of Roses. I honestly think it would suit Granny and I can introduce her to my mother.
The housewardens: ...
Jamil: Let's cross out Queendom of Roses.
Riddle: What?!
Trey: Haha... Yes. That's for the best.
Vil: However, knowing Granny, she would probably pay a visit there anyway.
Jamil: Right... *double crosses out the Queendom of Roses*
Riddle: *frowns even more*
Kalim: Um.
Grandma MC: *gently caressing the Sundrop Flower*
Grandma MC: *seems to be talking to the flower*
Grandma MC: You're being too generous. I'm already satisfied with this. *smiles*
Grandma MC: Spending time with my grandchildren has been so much fun.
Grandma MC: And I'm sure it will be as well for the next six years.

Tumblr media
soonyoung had been looking forward to this day for over a year.
a lot of college students tend to look forward to their graduation. they were ready to take on the world, ready to become fully independent adults who no longer were totally reliant on the generosity of family members and the government. soonyoung, however, looked forward to his graduation day for another reason.
you.
you were, in soonyoung's eyes, the most perfect a person could be. you always smiled at him when he greeted you, always let him talk out his ideas without interrupting him. he adored the sheepish, coyish look you got whenever he brought you your favorite drink from the university's coffee shop.
but he also loved how you looked. he loved it when you wore more casual looks, trading in your business slacks for jeans. he loved when you would turn, showing off the shape of your thighs and ass and how your jeans seemed to hug the shape of you so tightly it was as if they were a second skin. he loved it when you wore that white blouse with the lace around the collar, how it showed the top of the valley between your tits.
but more than just being attracted to you physically, soonyoung loved spending time with you. he tried to be the first person to tell you hello every morning, tried to come up with reasons as to why he needed to meet you after class, as to why he needed to stop by your office for extra help.
because, unfortunately, you were his anthropology professor.
a year ago he had needed a social science credit, and so had signed up for a random class. it was, as it turned out, the best decision soonyoung ever made. because on the first day he walked into the classroom and he saw you.
he remembered how beautiful you looked on that first day. smiling brightly, hair falling around your face angelically. you had asked his name and he had eagerly offered it, so much so that chan, who was taking the class with him, laughed at him later.
"soonyoung's got a crush on the professor," chan accused that night. seungkwan had given soonyoung a disapproving glare, which cause soonyoung to gasp in offense.
"i'm not going to actually do anything," soonyoung said. "i don't want to get professor in trouble, anyways. i'll wait until i graduate like a good person would."
"a good person wouldn't get the hots for their teacher," seungkwan snapped back. but then again, seungkwan had been the one to go out and help soonyoung in picking out the flowers he would give to you, so obviously seungkwan wasn't too disapproving.
that first semester passed too quickly in soonyoung's opinion. he hated it. he hated how the more he seemed to adore you, the more his heart began to swell and warm at the thought of you, the faster time went. nonetheless, regardless of his affections, the semester ended and you took soonyoung aside.
"i know we're not supposed to do this," you had said, voice soft. you reached into your bag and pulled out a chocolate bar, offering it to soonyoung with wide eyes. "but i really enjoyed having you in class, soonyoung. you always seemed to brighten my day."
that afternoon soonyoung signed up for a different one of your classes the following semester.
and so a year had passed with soonyoung admiring you from afar, signing up for your classes at the end of each semester and trying to hide the way you made his heart flutter and his dick swell.
("we really didn't need to know that," wonwoo had whined, pushing his glasses up as he rubbed at his face in distress. "just keep your horny thoughts to yourself, thanks.")
but! it was now the day after graduation, which meant soonyoung was free from both the chains of the education system and the restraints that kept him from telling you of his feelings.
he was so excited that he nearly tripped going up the stairs of the social science building. someone called after him but soonyoung just waved them on, gripping the bouquet a little tighter and trying to regulate his breathing.
it was fine, he thought. either you would let him whisk you off your feet into an eternity of love and passion or you'd politely smile at him and turn him down.
it was fine.
it was all fine.
the halls were cool as he walked down them, nearly abandoned. most of the students were at their living spaces, packing them up and saying goodbyes to their friends. professors and faculty were busy at their desks, doing whatever it was that professors and faculty did when they weren't instructing.
and soonyoung was here, on his way to confess to you.
he wondered what he should say, exactly. he hadn't given it much thought, but at the same time he had. he had thought enough about how you would react to his words, to his heartfelt confession, but hadn't really thought about what those words would be.
maybe he should've asked jihoon to help him write you a song.
but then he was outside of your office door, heart hammering in his ears so loudly that he couldn't even think, and soonyoung swallowed down all of his panic and stress and raised his fist to the door.
"coming!" you called from the other side, and soonyoung felt himself smile. he couldn't help it, really. the sound of your voice was like fuel to him, fueling the flames of his heart.
wait -- that was good. maybe that's what he should tell you.
you opened the door, eyes immediately finding his. you smiled, your entire face brightening, and fuck if soonyoung wasn't in love then he would have been just by your grin.
"soonyoung!" you said, leaning against your door. "you're early! your email said you would be here closer to one."
"ah," he said, searching his mind for an excuse. in the end, all he said was something about being excited. you accepted his words nonetheless with a soft grin, nodding along.
your eyes flicked down to the flowers. soonyoung gasped, and then shoved out his hands. "these -- these are for you!"
"thank you," you returned, smiling still. you reached out for the flowers and took them, and soonyoung felt as if he was going to go crazy when he could literally feel the graze of your fingers against his. "they're beautiful, soonyoung."
"i remember you saying they were your favorite flowers," he said. you stepped aside, waving him inside of your office. soonyoung ducked in, immediately feeling himself relax once he was in your space. he had been in your office numerous times, enough to where he felt as if he knew it just as well as you did. "i hope i was right."
"you were," you murmured, looking down at the blossoms. soonyoung's heart fluttered like the wings of a hummingbird as you slowly lifted the flowers to your nose, sniffing.
"do they smell good?"
"well," you began, eyes flicking up to his. "they smell like flowers."
soonyoung laughed, feeling himself relax even more. he watched as you left the door, letting it slowly creak shut behind you. you went to your desk, gently laying the bouquet beside your computer. "thank you for bringing these for me, soonyoung. it was awfully sweet of you. then again," you said, your smile turning coyish, "you've been awfully sweet to me this entire time. bringing me drinks in the morning, walking me to my car at night."
soonyoung shrugged. your smile and eyes were doing something to him. "it's how a lady should be treated."
"ah," you said, biting down on your lip. he couldn't bring his eyes from your mouth, how your teeth played with it. "and that's what i've been this whole time, hm? a lady, not a professor."
soonyoung felt his face fall slightly. "wait -- i don't -- i mean -- yes, you're a lady, but you're also --"
you laughed then, loudly and brightly. soonyoung felt his panic melt away as you leaned into his space, placing a gentle hand on his forearm. "it's all right, soonyoung. i know what you meant."
you began moving back and away, and soonyoung just couldn't help but reach out, grabbing your hand before you could retract it all the way. he squeezed your hand between both of his, feeling his heart rise up into his throat. "wait. i need to tell you something."
you blinked, surprised. "okay?"
"i -- you probably get this all the time," he said, laughing sheepishly. "probably get students telling you this every other week. but i want you to know i'm not like the others, you know? i don't want something that lasts just a semester -- that's why i waited, yeah? and not just for fun -- because i think we can have fun, but i don't want it to be just for fun. i think we can have something, the two of us --"
"what?" you gasped, breath leaving you in a rush. soonyoung glanced up at your face. your eyes were wide, mouth hanging open. "soonyoung, what are you talking about?"
soonyoung laughed weakly and awkwardly, loosening his grip on your hands. "uh. about my feelings for you?"
"your feelings for me," you echoed, brows furrowed as you tried to work out what he was saying. "which are -- what? just to be clear."
soonyoung sucked in a breath. "uh. i thought the flowers would've like, you know, done the talking for me."
you blinked at him, still confused. "the flowers? what talking, soonyoung? why did you bring me flowers if not as -- do you -- soonyoung?"
you gasped out his name as if he had done something scandalous which, all things considered, he had. a former student who waited a day after graduating to chase after his professor? what was he thinking?
"i --" he choked, and then soonyoung completely retracted from you. he made himself small, bringing his shoulders in and tucking his hands in his pockets. "i uh, you know. like you."
"you have to be very clear with me, soonyoung," you said. you moved towards him. not enough to be in his space, but enough to make his heart flutter again. "like me how."
"like -- romantically."
you echoed him, nodding slightly. then you brought your hands together, rubbing at your knuckles. "okay. so -- soonyoung --"
"wait," he called out, feeling his nerves spike. "if you're going to reject me, just like -- kick me in the ass and get me out, okay? don't try to sugarcoat it. i can take it. i'm a grown man."
"i'm not going to reject you, soonyoung," you said. "i just. i need to say something, okay? i just need you to listen to me."
soonyoung nodded, his heart speeding up in his chest. you weren't rejecting him. you were giving him a chance. "okay. i'll be quiet. promise."
you threw him a fond look, and then you schooled your face into a much more serious look. "okay. i need you to know that i'm -- i'm attracted to you, soonyoung. i have been ever since you helped me carry in those boxes last semester."
soonyoung mentally applauded himself for wearing a tank top that day. it was hot, the sun beating down on him. you had been going back and forth from your old office to this one, having been moved. and of course soonyoung had to help, doing all the heavy lifting so you wouldn't have to lift a pretty muscle.
"and i do think of you," you carried on, "i do. i -- it's stupid, it's reckless. but i think of you all the time. i nearly got you a tiger stuffie the other day just because you said they were your favorite animal, but that wouldn't be appropriate for a professor to get their student, would it?"
soonyoung opened his mouth. he would've loved a stuffed tiger from you!
but then you shot him a look, and he obediently quieted back down. "not done talking, soonyoung. as i was saying: i do think of you. i think of you a lot. when you wear those tank tops during class i can't think. and when you smile and your eyes crinkle, or when you get that serious look in your eyes? you're -- you're attractive, soonyoung. i'd have to be a fool to not see that.
"but, as attracted as i am to you, as much of a soft spot i have," you carried on, hands still fidgeting. "i think you might have a false perception of me. i'm -- you've only ever encountered me, been with me, in a professional teacher-student setting. you don't know me, soonyoung, not truly, and not as a person, as an individual."
soonyoung couldn't keep quiet. he took a quick step across the room, into your space, his hands swooping down to yours and holding them. "i want to! that's what dating is for, baby! i get to know you as a person, you get to know me. i learn about your likes and dislikes as a person and you forget about all the stupid grammar errors i made in essays! it's perfect!"
"and i am -- i was -- your professor, soonyoung," you murmured. you didn't take your hands from his, which he took as a positive. you shifted your hands so your fingers were laced with his, thumbs softly rubbing at his skin. "people aren't going to look too favorably on that, soonyoung. what about your parents."
he shrugged. "i'll tell them the truth. i kept my feelings to myself until i graduated from uni. there's nothing wrong with this, professor."
you shot him a look. he retracted, repeating the last sentence softly, tacking on your name at the end. it felt sweet, the taste of your name, felt right for him to use it.
he sighed softly. soonyoung moved closer, letting the tip of his nose pressed against yours. you let out a soft gasp and he couldn't help but smile. "i'm a grown man, y/n. let me get to know you, you get to know me. and then decide. let's have a chance before we throw it all away."
you breathed against him, eyes fluttering shut. he felt you nod against his head, and then you were pressing close, and who was soonyoung to protest? he was a man, weak with love, and so he took you into his arms and pressed his nose to your hairline, breathing you in, soaking in your embrace.
he had dreamed of this for over a year. a year he had kept his feelings away from you, not wanting to plague you with them. it was a burden he kept for a year, not wanting to make you uncomfortable with them.
but now --
soonyoung pulled away. you made a soft little questioning noise, and lifted your eyes to meet his. you were so soft, eyes sweet and mouth parted, pressed to him and, in that moment, his.
soonyoung lifted his hand and cupped the back of your neck, fingertips sinking into your hair. he guided your face to his, and when your lips met he swore it was destiny. for a moment the two of you just stilled, mouths pressed together in an innocent kiss.
but then you murmured his name, and soonyoung was hooked. he began pressing desperate, quick kisses to your lips, each movement of his mouth against yours slick. he kissed you with a year's worth of feelings bubbling over, one arm around your waist and the other on your neck, molding your body to his, letting him own you.
eventually you whimpered, breaking your mouth from his. his eyes caught sight of the string of saliva that connected your lips to his and he couldn't help but chase after it, press another wet kiss to your lower lip and suck.
"soonyoung," you mumbled, lashes fluttering. he continued to press quick kisses to your mouth, never letting up and not letting you speak. your mouth was addicting, he swore. he'd wanted to kiss you for forever, ever since that day you had whipped cream from your hot chocolate still on the bottom of your lip as you taught class, but he'd waited. he'd been a good boy and waited, and now he didn't have to and he wondered if that made the taste of your mouth and spit all the sweeter.
"'m here," he returned, voice just as slow. he pressed another kiss to the corner of your mouth, and then he was trailing his lips over your face. he was mapping out the rise of your cheeks, the slope of your nose with his mouth. "i'm here, baby."
"my name," you argued weakly. both of your hands went to his sleeves, gripping at his t-shirt, and if his dick wasn't interested before it definitely was now. he loved how you held him, as if you were just as desperate as he was, as if you had battled with your feelings this entire time just as much as he had. "say my name, soonyoung. please?"
he whispered your name, letting it tumble from his lips like a prayer. and then soonyoung was chanting it like he was a monk and you were his god, his mouth hot against your skin, reverent, worshiping.
"soon -- soonyoung," you moaned, pulling back. your mouth was red from his kisses, your eyes wide and pupils dilated. you were absolutely gorgeous. "soonyoung, you said you wanted to have fun, yeah?"
and then he was kissing you again, mouth like a storm against yours. he shoved his tongue into your mouth, sliding against yours. his hand went beneath your blouse, hiking it up and allowing him to glide his hand against your skin, grabbing at your stomach and waist. soonyoung walked you back until you were pressed against your desk, and then he detached his mouth from yours.
soonyoung made quick work of your blouse, fingers deftly pushing out the buttons. he let your blouse hang from your shoulders as his hands explored your chest, pressing against your breasts and grabbing at your hips. his mouth traveled to your neck, drawing out a loud gasp from you, and you tilted your head back, allowing him to make a mess of your throat.
he sucked and bit at your neck, marking it as his. he pressed heavy kisses to your skin, his hands quick against your body. your hands went to his shoulders, pulling at him, his name like a blessing as you chanted it.
then soonyoung pulled from you. he lifted you onto your desk, one of his hands forcing your long skirt up and up and up, baring your calves and then your knees and then your beautiful thighs.
"can i take your panties off?" he asked, breathless. he couldn't help but drink in your skin, eyes traveling over your thighs and stomach. "wanna stick my fingers in your cunt, professor."
you whimpered. "my name, soonyoung."
"sorry," he breathed, ducking to attach his mouth to your neck once again. he spoke between every kiss. "let me take your panties off, yeah? i've been dying to fuck you for months, baby. please? i'll be so good for you. promise."
you pressed your eyes shut, and then you were nodding. you lifted yourself off of the desk just enough to allow soonyoung to pull your panties (plain and practical, a pretty lilac cotton) down. he got them off of you and then, unable to help himself, lifted them up to his mouth and breathed.
you squealed, reaching out and smacking his arm. soonyoung ignored you for a moment, letting his eyes slide shut as he breathed in your heady scent. he was surrounded in you, breathing you in and out, your smell like heaven.
"soonyoung!" you protested, reaching for him again. you pulled at his arms and he let you, dropping your panties to the ground. "that's dirty!"
he laughed, helping you back on top of your desk. "i plan to do dirtier things than just smelling your wet panties, baby," he declared. you grinned, embarrassed and enthused at the same time. soonyoung couldn't help but press his mouth to yours again, languidly moving his lips against yours.
while he thoroughly kissed you, his hands went to your thighs. for a few moments all he did was massage your flesh, thumb digging in and fingers splayed. he felt the little hairs of your thighs, dipped his fingers in and brushed against your soft inner thighs. you were soft and plush beneath him, and he quickly found himself addicted to running his hands over your skin, brushing over your small hairs.
you whined at the back of your throat, and then you were opening your thighs for him. you moved your mouth from his with a slick noise, and, with a bashful look, grabbed his hand. soonyoung's breath left him as you guided his hand to your cunt. you gasped as his fingers brushed over your pussy, fingers tightening around his wrist.
soonyoung took over from there. he couldn't help but stare at your cunt, his fingers gently pressing against your cunt. "so fucking pretty," he mumbled, thumb and forefinger gently coming together on your mound and pinching ever-so-slightly. "even down here is pretty, professor."
you let out a small moan. the desk creaked beneath you as you moved back, hands bracing behind you. soonyoung couldn't help but take you in; the way your blouse hung from your torso, the hickies and bites on your neck and collar. you looked, to him, like paradise.
soonyoung went back to your cunt. he dipped his thumb between your lips, sucking in a heavy breath as your warmth trapped him. you were wet, and he couldn't help but bring his thumb up to his mouth and suck at your juices, groaning.
"soonyoung," you hissed. "that's  -- that's dirty!"
he laughed, and tucked his hand back to your cunt. his mouth went to yours, and he kissed you, hoping you could taste yourself on his tongue.
soonyoung's fingers dipped into your pussy. he took his time with your cunt and pleasure, unhurried. he stroked his hand down your cunt, gently pressed his forefingers into your quivering hole. your moans and gasps were music to his ears, and he played you beautifully. when he slipped two of his fingers into your cunt your mouth dropped open, eyes squeezing shut, and he couldn't help but wish he had a phone to take a picture of you.
your cunt was welcoming, eagerly guiding his fingers deeper and deeper, as if they were his cock and you were eager to be bred. he kept his mouth on your skin as he worked his fingers in you, spreading out your walls, gliding in and out, in and out, coaxing more wetness from your cunt.
he avoided your core, that special spot towards the front of your body. soonyoung took care to brush against it, a passing graze of his finger. he wouldn't let you cum, not yet.
"please," you whined after the nth time of him avoiding your core. "please, soonyoung. you're -- you're being mean."
he hummed, ducking his head and pressing his mouth to the top of your bra. "i don't think i am, sweet professor," he returned, voice sweet. "you're being so good for me, baby. whining and moaning, grinding into my hand. is it so bad that i don't want it to end? that i want you to keep fucking my fingers in you, that i want to keep hearing you beg?"
you furrowed your brows, looking up at him. your eyes were slightly wet with pent-up irritation, lips pressed in a firm line. despite your annoyance with soonyoung, when he drew his hands from your cunt your hips followed, eager for him to thrust them back in.
"please," you begged once more, sucking in your bottom lip. "please, soonyoung. i just -- i've waited so long, i want you to fuck me."
like a dog given a treat, soonyoung perked up. he grinned. he shifted his hand inside of you, drawing out a low moan. his thumb moved into your cunt, sliding between your pussy lips. "you've waited so long for me to fuck you," he cooed, voice sickly sweet, "tell me, professor. how long?"
you whined again, but when soonyoung refused to move, you relented. "the -- that day you helped me with the boxes. i felt so guilty, soonyoung. you were my student, and there i was ogling you like you were some -- some treat."
he laughed, using his free hand to brush back some hair that was beginning to stick to your forehead from sweat. "i'm happy you were so captivated by me," he softly murmured, thumb brushing over your lips. "thought i was a treat, did you? a special little treat for a good girl? a delicious little dessert for a little professor."
you shook your head. "no!"
soonyoung chuckled again. he worked his fingers in and out of you slowly, the sound of your juices lewd even to his ears -- but he loved it all the same. "poor little me," he taunted, "the unsuspecting student. just trying to help out my favorite teacher, just trying to be a good boy. and there you were, eyeing me like some piece of candy."
you whimpered. "i didn't -- i wouldn't have done anything."
soonyoung clicked his tongue. he moved his face to yours, pressing his forehead against yours. his breath was hot as he spoke. "you should've," he mumbled, voice low. "should've done something, professor. should've taken me to your office, should've locked the door and told me to fuck you. should've said you would've raised my grade if i fucked you well enough -- i would've done it, too.
"would've fucked you so good," he carried on, his words sinful. "would've fucked you on the floor, would've fucked your cute little cunt so good you would've cried."
he picked up the pace of his fingers thrusting inside of you, unable to keep himself from growing excited at the thought of you taking advantage of him. it never would've happened; you were too logical, too aware of your status above him. you never would've made a move on soonyoung as long as he was your student, and he would bet that if he hadn't come to your office and told you his feelings you would've bottled them up and set them aside, not wanting to burden a former student of yours.
not that you were ever a burden to him.
but, despite knowing all of this, soonyoung's mind continued to conjure up old fantasies, ones that plagued him at horrible moments and made his cock swell. "i thought about fucking you during class, you know. especially when you wore your skirts, professor. thought about pressing you over that desk in the front with everyone watching, jealous that it was me fucking our cute little teacher. would've fucked you so good and made you cry, too."
you let out a dry sob, and when his thumb grinded down on your clit, you came. your cunt tightened around his fingers, gripping them as if they were his cock instead. you fell back against the desk, arms collapsing. soonyoung hurried to wrap an arm around you, his fingers thrusting into you still, working you through your orgasm.
when he finally pulled his hand from your cunt, once you had begun shuddering and whining, his hand was soaked. he splayed his fingers, watching as thick strings of your juices and orgasm traveled, sliding down his fingers.
soonyoung let out a soft groan, and then he sucked his fingers into his mouth. he couldn't help but squeeze his eyes shut at your taste, loving how much you were. your cunt was fragrant, filling the air and his senses, and your taste was so delightfully bitter and sweet that he couldn't help but slide his tongue around his fingers, searching for more and more.
you whined, pulling at his hand. soonyoung opened his eyes, letting his fingers fall from his mouth with a pop. his heart thundered in his chest as you moved his hand to your mouth, pressing them into your warm heat and suckling.
"fuck," he groaned, voice going hoarse. your eyes slid shut as you ran your tongue over his digits, tasting him. "you --"
you pulled his fingers from your mouth. "me what?"
he laughed, and then his hands were on your body again. he maneuvered you roughly, pulling you off of the desk and before him. soonyoung turned you around, and with one hand began pressing at your back, guiding you to lay your front along your desk. with his other hand -- the one you had had in your mouth -- he pulled at your skirt again, bunching the fabric around your middle.
"gonna fuck you hard," he rambled, mind unfiltered at the repeating image of you sucking on his fingers. "gonna fuck you into the desk, gonna make you fucking cry, professor."
you whined, and then you were pressing your ass back to him. he couldn't help but pinch at the plumpness before him, drawing out a startled shriek from your mouth. soonyoung held your waist with one hand while he scrambled at his pants and underwear with his other hand. once his dick was free, red and angry from neglect, he used his other hand to guide it into your warm, drenched cunt.
soonyoung hissed as the tip of his cock caught against your hole, biting down onto his lip. he was going to fuck you. "can't believe i'm gonna shove my cock into your pussy," he murmured aimlessly, his words without any true intent (despite what that, his filthy words had your cunt fluttering and clenching, heart hammering). "fucking dreamed of this, baby. now i getta fuck your cute cunt, get to fucking breed you --"
his cock slowly pushes into you, and soonyoung thinks he's in heaven. he has to be. your warmth surrounds him, so tight that he swears he can't breathe. soonyoung continues to push into you as he rambles on and on, one of his hands on your hip while the other slides into your hair, twisting it around his fingers.
"fucking feels so good, baby," he breathed, biting down on his lip. "clenching around my dick like you wanna be bred. is that it? my little professor wants to be bred by their student? be fucked over a desk by a student. gonna own your cunt, professor, gonna fuck it and cream all over it and make it mine."
you sobbed, and then he was sliding all the way in. it felt so good, felt like heaven was in your cunt. you were warm and tight, and when he gave a little thrust into you your pussy clenched around him.
he pushed your body against the desk as he slowly dragged his cock out of your pussy. "fuck, baby. my cock is drenched in your juices. got my cock all wet like a good little professor, babe."
"soon --" you began, but then he fucked into you roughly, breaking you off. you moaned loudly, hands scrambling against your desk. you knocked over a mug of pens and markers -- a mug he recognized as one another student got you for your birthday.
a surge of heat rushed through him. it wasn't the heat he got from watching you teach, from watching your ass as you moved back and forth in front of the board. it was the heat he got watching that student present that mug to you like it was a fucking diamond ring or some shit.
soonyoung gritted his teeth, and then he was laying on top of you, pressing you against the desk. you sobbed at the shift in position, his dick thrusting into you sharply. soonyoung bit at your shoulder, voice muffled as he spoke into your skin. "wonder what the other students would think," he said, "seeing me mount you and breed you. seeing me fuck you into your desk, seeing you cry for my cock all desperate."
"soonyoung," you whined, turning your face. you had a tear caught on your lashes, lips red from where you had bitten at them. you were beautiful. you were perfect. "don't want 'em to see me," you babbled, "want only you."
a flush of pride traveled through him. soonyoung grinned, and he lifted himself off of you. both of his hands went to your hips, and then he was practically impaling you on his cock, shoving into you so roughly that the desk began rattling.
"that's fucking right," he hissed. your ass bounced from every thrust, the slap of his thighs against your ass beautiful. "only i getta see you like this, only i getta fuck your tight little pussy, professor. getta see you cry for my cock."
soonyoung reached down, feeling along your cunt where his cock fed into you. he slipped his fingers along your pussy until he was brushing along your clit. you cried out as he began roughly pressing at your clit, working furiously at you, demanding your release.
"fuck me," you sobbed, burying your face into your desk. "fuck me, soonyoung, fuck me, fuck me --"
soonyoung cursed, and then he was slipping out of your pussy. with rough hands he turned you back around, your knees on either side of him, chest heaving. soonyoung couldn't help but watch your breasts as you breathed heavily, watched them move. he rubbed at his dick, absolutely soaked and glistening with your pussy juices, drinking in the feast that was you.
he came on your body, long, thick spurts of spunk. you cried out softly as he painted you with his cream, covering your stomach and breasts.
soonyoung let his dick flop once he was done, and then he was moving you once again. he grabbed your knees and forced them up, so your cunt was visible to him. soonyoung couldn't help but whisper another curse at the sight of your drenched pussy.
and then he was diving in, his mouth slopping along your cunt. he moaned at the taste of your juices, sucking them in and drinking you like a parched man. soonyoung slurped at your clit, inhaling harshly as he licked along it feverishly, your taste a dessert he'd never give up.
soonyoung's tongue found your clit, and then he was lapping at it eagerly. you were moaning loudly, and when he pulled away to slap his hand over your clit your entire body shivered, legs going tight around his head.
soonyoung focused on your clit and pussy. he lapped at it, drank at it; he slapped your pussy, the sting countered by his eager tongue.
when you came you sobbed, legs tight around his head. he ate you through it, his heart swelling with warmth as your cunt gushed around him, juices staining his skin.
you chanted his name between sobs, and soonyoung wished he had his phone out so he could record it and set it as his ringtone.
when he finally pulled away, you were whining. tears stained your face, and you looked thoroughly debauched. you reached out for him all the same, and soonyoung took you into his arms gladly.
he lowered himself to the floor, happy to keep you on his lap. you curled into him, tucking your face into his neck. both of you were clothed, but no amount of clothes could conceal your dirty acts. your stomach was painted from his spunk, your blouse hanging around your elbows. your skirt was bunched around your middle, and the longer you sat on his lap the more of your juices and his cum leaked down onto his pants, dirtying them further.
the two of you were a mess. his hair was sticking to his face, and his fingers smelled like cunt. your neck was decorated in severe bites and hickeys, and your eyes were red from your tears.
but still, soonyoung couldn't help but think it was perfect.

It is said that these ruins are all that is left of what was once a ring-shaped ceremonial site. Here, these sages attempted to perfect the rituals required to transform phlogiston.

If you cannot destroy the Flamewind Feather before the Qucusaurus dives down into it, the creature will use a Phlogiston Current to return to the skies. This will persist until it is exhausted and returns to its original form.
Located at Basin of Unnumbered Flames
Gluttonous Yumkasaur Mountain King
◇ A powerful Yumkasaurus that has experienced numerous impressive battles.

When characters enter and maintain the Nightsoul's Blessing state, the Secret Source Automaton: Hunter-Seeker will start progressing through its Adaptive Countermeasures. Once those are complete, the Hunter-Seeker will unleash its special cluster laser. Still, risk and opportunity go hand-in-hand, so perhaps you might take this opportunity to deal immense damage to it...

Too Sweet (Ch. 2)
Harvey x Reader
Ch 1 ~ Ch 3 ~ Ch 4
Summary: this is based off Harvey’s 2 heart event in the game! I wanted to expand on it and add a little tension after their little meetcute. You go to visit George and Evelyn but Harvey is in the middle of a private session with them. You get caught in the middle of everything.
A/N: cliffhanger ending I guess bc I’m tired lmao. Not exactly fluff but not really angst either.
Word count: 722 it’s Smol
Tumblr media
The end of spring had come around in the valley and the shift toward warmer weather had left you feeling rejuvenated. You were slowly settling into a new routine, making your way into the chicken coop to collect their eggs. The hens bobbed around affectionately at your feet and you bent down to ruffle them softly as you scattered feed. After the chickens were tended to you filled your watering can, still straining from its weight.
After you were satisfied with the progress on your morning chores you sat on your porch and admired the view. It was so quiet in the valley, no car horns or pounding construction. You noticed your tulips had bloomed and recalled Evelyn mentioning they were favorites. You gathered a few flowers as gently as possible, wrapping a pale ribbon around the stems to hold your makeshift bouquet in place. You laid the bouquet in a basket and started on your way into town.
Passing by the bus stop you noticed a patch of leeks that had sprouted. You added them to your basket, careful not to damage the flowers. Evelyn had mentioned they were her husband’s favorite in passing, and you’d grown fond of him as well. You found your mind wandering as you followed the path toward the elderly couple’s home. You thought about stopping by the saloon to buy Harvey a coffee, and to find out what Gus liked so you could properly thank him for his work.
Evelyn had made a point to tell you multiple times to let yourself in when you visit, no need for knocking. You turned the knob and stepped into the living room. You quickly realized you’d stumbled into something private. George and Evelyn were seated in the room, listening intently as Harvey preached about the importance of a balanced diet. Before you could turn to leave you heard the doctor’s voice call out.
“This is a private session. You can’t be here.”
“Sorry! I didn’t realize you were here. I was just leav-“
George cut you off mid-sentence as you tried to back out the door. “Wait just a minute. I want a second opinion. “
Harvey let out an exasperated sigh. “George please. I’m your doctor. I'd appreciate it if you’d trust me. I went to school for eight years; I'd like to think I’m qualified when I tell you to eat less sodium.”
“I think Harvey’s right, George,” you added sheepishly. “I’m sure he has your best interest at heart. Besides, there’s plenty of healthy options that taste great. I brought you some leeks” you raised the basket meekly. George’s expression softened.
“I suppose you’re right. I’m sorry for fighting you, Doc. And I appreciate your kindness toward little old me. Thank you for the leeks, they’re my favorite.” You said your goodbyes and apologized again for interrupting before setting the basket down on a table and leaving.
Your cheeks burned red when you walked into the sun again. You cursed silently for not knocking, or for dropping by so early. You’d never been so embarrassed. Harvey must think I’m a fool and a stalker you thought to yourself as you paced around town with no destination in mind. You turned back and walked toward home. You felt the tears well up in your eyes and prayed no one else would try to make conversation today.
You slid to the ground in the chicken coop, back against the wall with your head in your hands. Tears began to run down your cheeks while the morning's events ran through your head in a loop. You cried quietly for a while before you felt gentle pecking. You scooped the hen into your lap and laughed softly. “I screwed up today, Scramble.” The chicken looked at you inquisitively. “I totally blew it with that cute doctor. I walked in on him with a patient.” Scramble clucked sympathetically while you pet her. “I’m serious, I made a fool out of myself today. He’s never going to take me seriously now. He probably thinks I’m a total loser.” Your other hen cooed as if to respond from across the room. “You’re right, Henrietta. I don’t need him or his stupid mustache.”
“You think my mustache is stupid?” The coop door opened and Harvey stood in the entrance with a hurt expression.

honeyed flower -tamlin x reader
masterlist
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
summary: You're a little fairy and when Tamlin visits you're village, you can't wait to show it to him!
warnings: none this is the fluffiest fluff also lowkey bimbo reader???? idk
wc: 3k
Tumblr media
Tamlin knows that the Spring Court is home to fairies.
They are not citizens of his Court, and they are not Faes, but - just like Illryians - they have their own rules and are their own species.
He has never seen one in person, given their secretive and shy nature, nor does he care to do so. He doesn't even know where they reside, or how. What he does know about them he knows from the legends that revolve around them, and there are not many of them. He is aware that they have pearly wings and angelic faces. Their power comes from the earth and flowers. That's how much he knows.
He has never been particularly concerned about them, and since they have never been a problem for him he sees no reason not to give them their space.
Tumblr media
It's a warmer afternoon than usual when Tamlin decides to kill some time by riding a little through the woods, taking advantage of the shade of the trees and the cool breeze brought by the streams.
Tamlin has always been fascinated by his court; he would do anything to protect it, to take care of it. He has always loved exploring it, and still after 500 years he always seems to find new places.
Like the one he ends up in now. He's never seen it before, and he wonders how that's possible given the proximity to his palace - it's only a couple of hours' ride away.
It all seems so quiet, but at the same time crowded. He wonders if it's safe, but his instincts don't alert him to anything, and he stays on his horse as he rides further into that little piece of paradise. The blossoming trees gradually fade away, giving way to a sunny valley that smells of roses and cherries. He has never smelled a scent as strong as it is delicious, and that is what drives him forward further.
Around him he begins to smell a sweeter, more honeyed scent, and in the distance he can make out something large and colorful. Flowers. Some flowers - huge ones. Their stems as big as trunks.
Tamlin suppresses a sound of amazement in his throat as he approaches them. As a child he had read books about fairies sleeping in flowers, but he thought it was pure fantasy. Instead, he now stands before them.
There are various kinds and colors of them, and he stares at them in awe. They are all open, and he wonders if they close as the fairies sleep in them, as in his books. They are all empty, though.
The valley goes on for meters and meters, at least a hundred flowers and about twenty different types. However, it is one in particular that attracts his attention, the one from which he derives that scent so honeyed. He gets off his horse and decides to walk there, for fear of disturbing the little creature he hopes there to find.
Tumblr media
Your flower is the youngest in your village, born the same day you were born. You are very proud of where you reside, and you take extremely good care of it, making it look tall and well hydrated. It is the color of your wings: a sweet pinkish white, and its pollen smells like honey. It is not as tall as the others, but it is still young. Just like you.
Everyone thinks flowers are just beds for fairies, and in the past they have been cut and used as entertainment, or an instrument of torture. Because the connection there is between a fairy and her flower is very delicate and personal, and it is also the reason why your species has strayed so far from the others. The Spring Court is the best fit for you, and although not in the same way, people here understand your connection to nature, and respect it, leaving you your own space.
If a fairy loses her flower, she loses a piece of herself.
That's why you like to cherish it. And that you think your flower was created by Mother just for you. And, yes, you admit, you might like it more than the others because it allows you to reach the cherry tree right in front, but those are other stories....
Just this afternoon, after you collected pollen from the anthers in a basket and released it down by the river so it can give birth to more flowers, you stood on its petals to rest, and you inevitably fell asleep.
It's not your fault! It is your species that is so ... sleepy. By the way, you need to make a mental note to yourself that you need to wake up before the other village fairies return from the Sacred Harvest, so that you will be ready to help carry the hampers with food.
Tumblr media
Tamlin gets closer and closer, until he spots a small female body lying on one of the petals of that giant flower.
A fairy, of course. He cannot see your face, yet he can already ascertain your beauty from your stunning wings: never has he seen a pair so delicate and gorgeous at the same time. The pink veins reflect on the almost transparent white skin, making them glisten under the sun. Instinct makes him reach forward a hand, curious to feel that wonder under his fingertips, but if it is as he remembers from the books, fairies consider wings an extremely private part, and let themselves be touched only by the most trusted. Tamlin doesn't want to be intrusive. Nor does he want to disturb such a creature's sleep.
Just as he turns to leave, an angelic voice calls to him.
"Stranger." Tamlin turns toward you, and after seeing you - he is the High Lord and yet it is almost as if he should be the one to bow before you, before such beauty. Your features are delicate and pure, just like a fairy's. Your skin glows under the spring sun, your wings are tall and proud. The flower shifts under your weight, creating a kind of slide from which you descend, spraying some pollen on you with an oh so sweet scent. You are dressed in a tender little white crocheted dress, and he wonders if you made it yourself.
You notice how he struggles to find the words to answer you, so, as is your nature to help others, you offer him a small hand in greeting. "My name is Y/n. Have you come to visit our lands?" You ask him softly. His eyes stare at your wings, as they move along with your body, reflecting your every emotion. When you saw him, they twitched slightly from the excitement of a new person to meet. And now they retreat slightly, as if shy. Tamlin finds it adorable.
"I just happened to be here, actually."
He says raising his chin toward a horse with a shiny white coat. Your face is frowning slightly.
"Oh. I see." You say turning around, flapping your wings a couple of times in an attempt to fly back into your flower. You are still a little inexperienced in using them, but the older fairies have promised you that in time it will come more naturally to you. You hope so.
"Wait." The one who is only a stranger to you speaks again. "I don't... I wouldn't mind a tour of your village." He smiles at you and your face brightens, your wings twitch again, unable to mask happiness. You love showing your village to strangers, you are very proud of it. You know you're also breaking the rules, but you don't want to thi nk about it.
"Where is everyone else?" Tamlin asks, following you as you retrace his steps to show him your entire territory from start to finish.
"Oh, they are at the Sacred Harvest." You cannot hide the pride you feel in who you are. Tamlin cannot take his eyes off you.
"The Sacred Harvest?" You nod.
"It is an annual harvest we do after a ritual dedicated to the gods. I can't participate because I haven't found a mate yet." You say sadly, then chase away the thought with a wave of your hand and point your finger to the tallest flowers in your village, one blue and the other yellow. "These are the flowers of the Village Chiefs. They are the tallest because they are the oldest."
He doesn't even turn to look at the flowers, his eyes fixed on you. Yet your species, which he didn't care about before, now cuases him so many questions. You are all so interesting and angelic and lovely, he thinks. Or maybe it's just you who are like that.
"I-I'm Tamlin, by the way." He doesn't say this because he wants to sound selfish, but because he wants you to remember him. Because he will remember you for a long, long time.
Your wings droop slightly, as if you are ashamed of yourself for your little mistake. "Oh! I'm so sorry, Tamlin. I didn't mean--I didn't mean to be mean. I hope you will still want to visit my village." And Tamlin is a weak, weak male, because he couldn't say no to you even if you asked him for the moon itself.
"Of course, Y/n." Your wings twitch, and by now he knows what that means: the answer particularly satisfies you. You continue in silence as you take him to the vegetable gardens.
"Here, this is my garden. Since I cannot participate in any rituals, I help the village this way." You say softly and with so much pride as you point out each plant and inform him what it is for or what it is called. It is destabilizing how you are so ready to help others, so attached to your village, you speak of it with such passion.
After your delicious flourishing garden, you take him to the river.
"This is my favorite place ever. I always come here to donate pollen to the wind. And when it's hot, I take a bath. It's so much fun!" You exclaim happily, and Tamlin observes the place. He quickly realizes how it can be your favorite place, and it would probably be his too if he lived in the village like you do.
It is a more secluded than all the other places you have shown him. More reserved. The grass is green and lush with delicate little flowers that remind him of your wings, your eyes, and butterflies flutter contentedly recalling your wings. It smells of pure spring. The water makes a soothing sound and when it meets rocks it splashes droplets on your legs. Tamlin looks at you.
"What's going on?" You ask him curiously. He wonders if you are always so full of life.
"Do you like to bathe here?" He says, smiling. You look at him with big doe eyes, pupils dilated. You love it when they ask you questions, especially about your village.
"Yes! The water is fresh and clean, and it smells like pretty flowers. Sometimes my pets visit me!" At the latter's mention, your eyes sparkle, and your wings spasm a little again.
"You have pets?" At this point Tamlin just wants to see you happy, and if asking you so many things makes you happy, then he will.
"Yes! Violet and Spring, two lovely baby fawns, I love them very very much." You tell them as you look around, as if they might come at any moment. "You're looking at the water a lot, Tamlin. Do you want to take a bath?"
He raises his eyebrows, surprised that you noticed, and he nods, smiling at you.
You take the initiative and step barefoot into the water, your whole body having a little shiver, wings included. Tamlin chuckles before diving in all at once, splashing drops of cold water all over you. He wishes he had at least taken off his shirt, but he didn't want you to be embarrassed.
Your wings squeeze together in an attempt to dry.
"Hey! It's cold."
You say with a laugh.
Tamlin is so caught up in your laughter that he doesn't realize you've dived in, too. You play in the small river for a while before the sun starts to set and the air gets cooler.
"Tam! We have to get back in time to see my second favorite spot."
You tell him while continuing to touch his arm with your finger affectionately. He stands up taking your hand and helping you out of the water before speaking. Your clothes are both soaked and dripping, and his gaze wanders over your body put on display more than before, but you don't seem to notice. "Lead the way."
You don't let go of his hand as you lead him through the flowers again, then go further into the forest, into the trees.
It seems to him that there is nothing there, but following your gaze he finds a tree different from the others. On the highest branches hang lianas that, together with huge leaves that Tamlin does not recognize and wonders if they are not full of magic like the flowers, create hammocks."Over here!" You tell him, pointing to one, approaching yours and jumping on it without too much trouble.
"Are you sure they will hold my weight?" His eyes study well the structure of the hammock you pointed out to him.
"Um...I'm not sure, let me ask the trees."Tamlin squints at your words.To the trees? He already knew from hearsay that fairies possess gifts from nature, but talking to it is a little different.
"Okay. You would have fallen because the leaf is old, but all you had to do was ask nicely! Now they promised me that they will support you." He is confused, but he doesn't want to offend you and sits on it tentatively. You talk about the trees as if they were sentient beings. Nothing happens.
"Lie down!" You incite him. He lies down awkwardly but eventually finds a way to be comfortable. He looks around. Sure, the forest is very beautiful, but he wonders if there is more he is not seeing. As if you have read his thoughts, you inform him that as soon as night falls, you will see fireflies. You say this with such joy, but at the same time whispering. As if you are telling him one of your innermost secrets. He wonders if the other fairies know about this little place.
Tamlin should have been home long ago, now that the sun has gone down. They're probably getting worried. But he doesn't want to end this meeting; he doesn't want to leave.
When the fireflies appear you make a sound of surprise and cover your mouth with your hand, as if you have said something unforgivable. You cannot see Tamlin, but you feel his curious gaze on you. You point to the bright little animals and whisper, hoping he can hear you from how low your tone is, "There they are! Don't make a sound or they'll go away."
You stay there until it's so dark you can't even see where you put your feet. Tamlin is almost afraid of tripping because of the presence of the roots, but you reassure him.
"Don't worry, TamTam. The trees will get us through without making us fall." If he is astonished by your words, he does not show it. Tamlin will never admit it, but he likes the nickname. You have never met a visitor so curious and so--interested in seeing what you have to show him.
You are sad that this meeting must end, but you are sleepy, and soon the first fairies will be back from the Sacred Harvest, too, and you cannot let them see you with a stranger.
You are not allowed to let anyone into the village, only the two Village Chiefs can.
You return near your flower and prepare to say goodbye to Tamlin.
"I wish I could be with you more, TamTam. But soon the Village Chiefs will be back and if they find me with a stranger ... they will exile me." You say worriedly.
A few fireflies illuminate enough around you that they can see your eyebrows arched in a clear sign of sadness. Your big eyes glossy with tears. Your fingers fiddle with each other.
"Are foreigners not allowed in your village?" He asks, and fights the instinct to take your hands in his to stop their agitated movements. You shake your head.
"Only under approval of the Village Chiefs."
This time it is Tamlin's turn to nod.
You remain silent for a while."Before -- before I leave, if I ever come back, how should I get their approval?"He asks and you look at him surprised, then your wings have a sweet spasm and you offer him one of your best smiles."Do you want to come back?"You ask him excitedly.He smiles sweetly at you, before nodding.You are so happy that you hug him and squeeze him tightly, your still damp clothes causing both of you to shiver.Tamlin is a little surprised by your gesture, but he soon recovers and returns the squeeze with equal affection.When you pull away, you're practically jumping on the spot."You have to prove that your heart is pure.But I'm sure your heart is!"I say, still happy about his words. You say giggling, still happy about his words. It takes very little to make you happy, Tamlin thinks. He is a little confused, though. He doesn't know if his heart is pure, given the bad things he has done in the past.
"Y/n... I'm not sure if my heart is." He says looking into your eyes. Your expression becomes apprehensive, a warmth expands in his chest.
"You proved me otherwise today, though. And the trees like you!" You reach out and have to twist your neck, but you manage to give him a kiss on the cheek. Tamlin once again stands petrified at your gesture of affection, and finds your slight blush on your cheeks adorable. Without either of you saying anything, you pull away and go to your flower. You climb on top flying, with some effort, and some pollen sticks to your damp clothes. You turn around and notice that he is still there. You hear the voices of the other fairies in the distance, and you yell at him with your eyes to leave. You wave at him with a motion of your hand, and he waves back, smiling at you before heading toward his horse tied to a tree.
You fall asleep almost immediately, and you can't stop thinking about him. A male so beautiful he takes your breath away, but even better - kind. Pure-hearted.
You can't wait for him to come back. And unbeknownst to you, Tamlin is already mentally marking the way back to visit you again soon.

Hi, Mouse!!!! Have you ever written stardew bachelors propose to farmer? I would love to see what you come up with. I didn't see it when I scrolled through your masterlist but I could have missed it. Take care!
Nah, I definitely didn't write about it. So we'll fix that today! Thanks for the question, dear anon! Enjoy 🫰💖
_________________________________________
SDV bachelors propose to Farmer:
Alex:
A classic marriage proposal at a romantic dinner in the Saloon. Only in this case the room was much more decorated, and Alex seemed to be nervous, though he tried to hide it from Farmer. Oh, and the athlete himself had insisted that they both come in evening clothes. Farmer realised that their lover was up to something, but pretended not to pay attention. Live music, soft candlelight, lots of delicious food and snacks (Gus did his best!), and all the while red as a tomato Alex. It turns out that the man kept waiting for the right moment to finally propose and was a little afraid of refusal and spoil everything. But the soft look of his favourite Farmer still gave him strength and the man handed them the mermaid pendant. What followed was a room filled with loud "Yes!", joyous laughter and a few tears ("I wasn't crying, it was the hot sauce in my steak!" Alex, don't lie.). Still, the classics never die!
Sebastian:
When Sebastian got motorbike prepared for the ride, Farmer thought they would just ride around the night city and visit local coffee shops, but emo decided to stop by the Zuzu City Carnival. Sebby isn't usually a fan of noisy and crowded places, but he said he wanted to go there at least once. The loving couple had fun screaming on the roller coaster, took lots of pictures in a booth with funny faces, ate cotton candy and other goodies, and then, tired and satisfied, decided to get on the Ferris wheel. At the very top, Sebastian and Farmer could see the whole town, even spotting Stardew Valley on the horizon. Sebby was holding something in his hand, and when he placed the object in Farmer's hand, he blushed profusely. With widened eyes, Farmer saw the mermaid pendant, and then their gaze fell back on their partner's face, whose cheeks had turned pink and gaze was soft.
Sam:
A small wooden platform, flowers all over the place, a nice sea breeze to help with the summer heat... Everything is perfect. Sammy's decided to have a concert right here, on Stardew Valley beach, and Farmer will be the guest of honour! Strange that Sam didn't tell Farmer that he had time to write another song, but the young guitarist said it was a surprise. The concert was delightful, all the residents were enthralled by the music, and as soon as everyone thought it was over, Sam invited Farmer on stage. The young couple had previously discussed getting married, and Sam thought that dedicating a song to Farmer and proposing to them here would be a great idea. And he wasn't wrong: after nearly dropping the mermaid's pendant in tears of happiness, Farmer enveloped Sam in an tight embrace, to the whistles of Sam's friends and the applause of the others.
Harvey:
Going over the best places to take Farmer out and propose to them, Harvey came across the top 10, and the second place was to book a hot air balloon ride. On the one hand, repeating that venture like that date would be wonderful, on the other hand, the doctor was afraid of getting scared again and holding on to Farmer as a lifeline almost the whole time. But Harvey still took the risk, and to his and Farmer's surprise - this time Harvey wasn't scared. He was worried, of course, but that was more because of his refusal to get married than because of the altitude. But all Harvey's doubts vanished when Farmer looked at the beautiful mermaid pendant with genuine happiness and said the cherished consent to the proposal. Although Harvey's face turned white with horror when his future spouse, in a burst of happiness, began to bounce a little and slightly wobble the basket, but it ended on a very romantic note.
Elliott:
Oh, Elliott had been in the clouds for at least a week, thinking about which place he should choose for a romantic trip with Farmer to propose to them at the end. A boat ride on the sea, maybe a beautiful town with local attractions, or snowy mountains where skiing with a cosy hotel would be waiting for them.... So many wonderful options! And how was the poor writer to choose! He was walking along the beach with Farmer, holding the ring box in the pocket of his red jacket and mulling over ideas. But seeing his beautiful Farmer in the light of the silver moon, Elliott felt it was time. So he went down on one knee, making a speech to the confused Farmer. When the meaning of the words reached them, they knocked the red-haired writer down with a hug and a loud "yes!". And all those ideas Elliott would save for the honeymoon.
Shane:
Shane was tossing around the idea of proposing in Pelican Town, or taking Farmer to the city and proposing there. He wants to do it on the anniversary of their meeting, but the location.... He didn't want to choose a noisy gridball stadium, so Shane settled on the idea of a picnic in Cindersap forest (Marnie had suggested it and given her word that she would keep her mouth shut). It was an autumn picnic, and the forest, painted with fiery orange foliage, created a truly fairy-tale and romantic atmosphere. So after telling Farmer how much they meant to Shane and how much he loved them, he handed them the mermaid pendant and asked the question. And the stones of doubt and fear fell from his shoulders as Farmer smiled broadly and said "yes" to be Shane's spouse. Shane is sure to cry a little after everything.

*Note that this mini event takes place in the future, years after the character's have graduated and left Night Raven College. Lydia and Silver have two kids by the time they get married, Ryuumi (their adopted son, age 6) and Momo (their biological son, age 4) They live in Briar Valley (specifically in the house Lilia raised Silver in), with Lilia visiting/staying over often (he basically lives with them lol ♡)*
You open your mailbox one morning to find a letter, wrapped in twine and wild flowers. Your name was written neatly on the front, with small drawings in crayon surrounding it (done by a child). Inside the letter was an invitation, inviting you to a joyous occasion.
Tumblr media
Lydia and Silver are getting married, and you're invited! ♡
The wedding and reception will be held outdoors, in the woods near their home (essentially their backyard lol ♡). The wedding will have chairs on each side of the aisle for guests to sit, decorated in soft pinks, blues, and gold (alongside the natural plant life). The reception will have tables and chairs, along with a dance floor and buffet (that will be catered).
Since this mini event takes place in the future, think of this as a fun opportunity to imagine what your OC and OC x Canon's future will be like! Maybe they're married, or have kids of their own? Or maybe they're separated, and have a reunion at the wedding?? 👀👀👀
Is your OC attending as a guest, or are they part of the wedding? Like a bridesmaid, or groomsman, or even being Lydia's hairstylist for the day! It's up to you ♡
There's no dress code/requirements either! It's moreso what you think your OC / OC x Canon would wear if they got invited to a wedding (or were apart of a wedding party!) ♡
Once people start responding to their invitations (whether it be with art, writing, etc) I'll write some scenarios to go along with it, and tag you when it's posted ♡
Thank you! ♡♡♡
Tumblr media Tumblr media
An invite from Lydia?! And to her wedding, no less? Kiyuu RSVPed immediately, of course!! Along with a couple of questions such as: What’s the dress code? When should they be there by and is it fine if they arrive early? Is Grim allowed to be there (this one was more of a warning for the food lmao)?
All the questions were answered swiftly, and all Kiyuu had was to tell Ryoko (@kathxrat-01) about it.
Tumblr media
Of course Kiyuu was joking, but throwing around flowers seemed kind of fun. Oh well, that spot was probably taken by one of Lydia’s boys, and they’d be much cuter anyway.
The most major thing left was choosing a gift:
“What should we gift them? Ah, I wonder if they’d appreciate a video of the pictures I took of them when they were back in NRC, haha! That’s be nostalgic!”
“Oh, that might be cute!”
“… Kiyuu, did you take those pictures with permission?”
“…”
“Kiyuu.”
“The, but to capture the candid—”
“Kiyuu, that’s rude! How many times do I have to tell you…”
Ryoko and Kiyuu ended up agreeing to move all photos of Silver and Lydia to the USB and permanently delete them from the camera memory so they could do what they wanted to with those photos <3
TY SHEEPY FOR THE INVITATION!!! i cannot wait for their wedding. i’ll probably draw more about kiyuu and even lydia and silver bc the wedding is giving me so many ideas.
drawing older kiyuu wasn’t a struggle at all bc while she’s all like “who am i. what do i want to become. where do i want to go???” during her first year, she becomes much more sure of herself as she ages. AND! She starts being obsessed with wearing dresses (thanks to Ryoko <333)
She hasn’t left Jack nor Ryoko NOR GRIM. i don’t mention him a lot but that’s her SON through and through. I feel like she’s doing something with studying archaeology or general technology stuff.
She looks the way she wants to, she’s doing the thing she’s good at and likes, and she’s still in her beloved QPR. she truly is living her best life. or at least, i feel like she could, so this is what I’ll draw her as!!
Didn’t draw Ryoko because I don’t want to like. make her older version without Wens’ decisions. But ryokiyuu is tightknit as always!!

Since you mentioned that Yulian have a tight schedule, can you make a short fanfic of him having a day-off? Like both him and spouse just stay at home.
Tumblr media
A heartwarming moment of anons giving my guy a rest (Unlike Car-crash and angst anon)
It's the day you enjoy the most! The morning was spent with you two cuddling on the bed before having breakfast on the bed and watching some show on the TV. You really love the solace you two are wrapped in, living without a single worry while enjoying the warmth of your husband's skin.
"What do you want to do for today? Are there any places you want to visit?" Yulian questioned you as he took away all the plates and utensils from the bed.
You took your time to think before deciding to just spend the whole day inside the house. Yulian had no problem with it although he wondered if you were not bored to death in this house due to most of your time spent alone in it.
"I suppose spending time together is different than spending time alone, how about we do some gardening?"
There was a botanical garden located behind the house, surrounded by the scenery of lily-of-the-valley throughout the way. The flowers and plants that grew in it never failed to disappoint you despite being the same sight as ever. Growing in a place that has been modeled by someone to its best, never being able to break free from the soil should it die if it did so. Ironic, really.
"Dear," Yulian handed you a pair of gloves, "I'd rather not have dirt dirty your nails." Your husband seemed to not be a fan of touching nature with his bare hands huh?
Nonetheless, the whole day was spent in bliss. Not only tending the garden, but the two of you also worked on your hobby, making use of the time to the fullest before night blanketed the day which resounded at the end of this blissful play.
That night, Yulian did not slip away from the bed. Instead, he held you closely to him, professing his love in a barely audible voice.
"Oh, what am I to be without you?"
It's very short because I have no idea what to write anymore ^^;

Ruben V. Nepales: Farewell and thanks for the delicious Filipino food and best of all, for the scintillating conversations, Lem Balagot!
Lemuel “Lem” Lorenzana Balagot
May 3, 1951 - October 17, 2024
We lost a Filipino cuisine pioneer in America and owner of the long-running and everyone's favorite, L A Rose Cafe.
So many memories.
When Darren Criss and his mom organized an intimate breakfast gathering the morning after the 2019 Golden Globes, where else did the mother-son have it but at Darren's favorite LA Pinoy restaurant?
Serendipitously, Darren won the Globe for "The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story" the night before (becoming the first Filipino American to win a Golden Globe) so it was an extra special celebration over Lem's yummy Pinoy breakfast fare.
When the Globes held a press conference with Paris Hilton, we heard that she loved Filipino food in her Manila visits. So we thought of Lem to cater the event. Paris loved the food so much that she asked to have photos with Lem and his staff.
Janet Susan Rodriguez Nepales and I are also glad that our girls got to know Lem this year. Nikki Bianca Nicole and Ella Rafaella Angelica met Lem when he catered our housewarming in the Valley but they were too young to remember him.
In more recent times, Nikki and Ella got to know Lem as they dined at LA Rose Cafe. Lem sat down with our family when we had lunch at LA Rose before we headed to a wedding mass in summer this year.
Some of Lem's endearing qualities were his affability, wit, humor and intelligence. Our conversations with him were as satisfying as his lunch and dinner staples. We brought Hollywood friends and colleagues to his Fountain Ave. cafe.
Last time we ate at LA Rose, we brought a visiting friend Evita Wise to dinner with our family. Janet and I just told the staff to give our love and hugs to him since he was upstairs, resting from a treatment. The day after, he called to say thanks and ask how the food and service was.
About three weeks before Lem passed away, we had a long phone conversation about many topics, from the recent earthquakes to his health condition. From out of the blue, he spontaneously said some very kind words to Janet and me which we will always treasure.
Paalam, Lem. We will miss you. We will always remember you. Hugs and sincerest sympathies to Lem's partner, Rai, and Lem's family.
LA Rose Cafe will remain open -- if you have not been there, try it one of these days. And to all of Lem's regular patrons and friends, let's keep LA Rose Cafe jumping in loving memory of and in tribute to the wonderful human being Len was.
******
From the family:
An open casket viewing will be held on November 6 from 10 am to 8 pm, followed by a closed casket visitation on November 7 from 10 am to 8 pm at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday, November 9 at 9:00 am at the Church of the Recessional, also at Forest Lawn Glendale with a reception at LA Rose to follow at 12 pm. The family requests that flowers be delivered to Forest Lawn Glendale, located at 1712 S. Glendale Avenue, Glendale, California 91205.
