My partner will never eat leftover rice. If I cook two servings to avoid leftovers, they tell me they want more rice. If I cook four, they won't finish it and I have to spend the next few days eating it. So tonight, since I had leftover rice, I added it to some broth, garlic, and pre-seasoned black beans to make moros. Not sure how it's going to come out since it's my first time trying it, but at least it got something out of the fridge.

Meet Cute
Mat Barzal x Hughes!sister
Part of the Birdie Hughes AU
Summary: In which Birdie goes to an art museum, is unimpressed, and runs off with someone more entertaining to look at.
The art was beautiful but after circling around once she had seen all she needed to. Making a few comments here and there with other visitors she finally decided it was well past her time to leave. She had been here long enough to have a few things to talk about with her coworker. 
But one man scowling at a painting caught her attention before she could make her way out. 
“You look unimpressed.” She says coming up to stand beside him. 
“Art isn’t really my thing, I'm here with friends who are here with girlfriends. I just don’t get the appeal of staring at it for minutes on end trying to understand it. I look at it, see if I think it's pretty, then move on. I’ve already looked at everything and have just been walking around.”
“Yeah I get it, certainly not everyone’s scene. If you don’t spend your days looking disinterested at art, what do you do?”
“I’m a hockey player.”
“Of course you are” Birdie mumbles. She can never get away from them.
“Huh?”
“Nothing.”
“What about you?”
“I work in a museum.” She says chuckling, knowing the reaction she is about to get.
“Oh fuck I’m so sorry. I totally just- is this- do you work here?” 
“Calm down. I work in a history museum. Art isn’t my thing that much either. One of my coworkers raved about this exhibit but I knew I wouldn’t like it. I don’t know why I felt the need to go.” Looking at the man beside her though, she was thankful she did.
“Thank god someone agrees. I felt like an asshole. Plus, I thought we were going to stay for 45 minutes tops and then get food but it's been over an hour. I’m starving.”
“There is a great Mexican place two blocks down if you’d like to try? Although maybe you should stay with your-”
“Sounds great, let's go. I like them but they all can fuck off for all I care right now, I am so hungry.” He laughs as they walk out into the night.
✺✺✺✺✺✺✺
The food was great, the conversation flowed easily, and Birdie had been sitting with one of the most beautiful men she had ever seen. 
“How can you come from such a talented hockey family and not play?” He asks, something many people do, something she asked herself when she decided she was done with the sport.
“I loved it, still do. And I was good, the Hughes genes didn’t miss me. But, I realized in high school I enjoyed playing with my family more. I am just not a competitive person and liked playing for fun rather than to win. Something my family didn’t understand for a while, which I don’t blame them for. I, of course, still watch and support my brothers. I love those idiots to death, but it wasn’t my scene.”
“So now you do museums?” Mat internally scolds himself at the stupidity of what he just said.
“Something like that.” She chuckles. “I am a museum educator. I help provide interactive experiences from young children to adults. I focus on history. So no art.”
“Good, I’m glad I didn’t offend you within seconds of meeting you.”
The night continued on like this till they were both bleary eyed and yawning. Deciding to end it with a quick kiss on the cheek and exchanged numbers, she felt giddy as she walked into her room.
She knew she had to call Quinn. 
Taglist: @tpwkstiles
A/N: Call with Quinn coming up next !

Crossover prompt au where Damian failed to get along with the Titans and was labeled as being "too violent" and this changes the course of the timeline.
Phantom had been living full time in the Ghost Zone and planned on checking out one of the "Forbidden" areas in hopes that it would be a nice place for him to get some much needed relaxation. Ever since Kitty found out which door lead to his lair hes been bombarded with people knocking and looking for a fight. Danny hadn't yet learned that he could just...move his door so he was exploring the more out there options.
Anyway he slips into another dimension and starts exploring this desert wastland filled with monsters and crumpled buildings. It looks like the apocalypse had hit and he didn't see a single human around. Worse there was something moving so fast towards him it was just a large blue blur.
Was that...? Wow thats a lot of hair.
Danny tried to make a quick escape by opening a portal to the GZ especially when he saw a hoard of what looked like angels following after the blur and throwing weapons and lightning at it as it dodged away. The portal opened but it didn't lead to the GZ. The blur crashed into him and sent them both spiraling into the new dimension and crashing directly into some blond guy on a motorcycle.
Good news! The guy was largely unharmed.
Bad news! Danny accidentally opened a portal to the GZ during the chaos. They all fell in and they argued amongst themselves up until the blur, who turned out to be a guy with ridiculously long and pretty blue hair said "I wish I could just see the real you so I could know if you're trustworthy or not."
"So you have wished it, so it shall be!" Came a booming voice from all around them. A woman dressed like a genie then cast some kind of spell onto them turning Phantom into Fenton, and the blond guy into a blond kid.
Phantom decided to use the last of his power to open a portal to a safer location since they had no way to protect themselves from the ghosts and Blue guy agreed while the blond guy was having some sort of mental breakdown muttering, "So Hojo wasn't lying? I really am just a clone? Are all my memories really fake?!"
The other two grimaced with sympathy. That sounds rough. They worked together to move the blond and his motorcycle through the portal which snapped shut behind them.
Now they had a new problem. This city, appropriately named "Gotham" felt far from safe and they were essentially stuck there for the foreseeable future. After cursing thier luck Danny introduced himself as a Halfa, a creature that exists between life and death. The blue haired guy took this as his cue to introduce himself as "Ren" which was an obvious fake name but he called himself a nahobino which was interesting. Too bad he wouldn't elaborate.
Next it was blondies turn. His name was Cloud Strife, a lab experiment made by Shinra- a corrupt electric power company that somehow managed to take over the world. How did that even happen??? Cloud just shrugged when asked.
They all decided they needed to stick together and find a way to find for themselves. This of course meant stealing to survive...which turned out to be way harder than they thought it would be because there's some maniac in a bat costume with a birdy sidekick chasing after them and raiding all thier hideouts. If they had to get another hideout this week Danny was gonna scream!
Worse! He wants to adopt them. The guy! In a bat costume! The "we are all very damaged child soldiers" didn't persuade him, in fact they're sure it made it worse.
On the next raid the bird boy offered to talk. He wanted to make a superhero team with the four of them, in exchange they would be given food, shelter, clothing and payment and the charges placed along them would be lessened or outright dropped.
They begrudgingly agreed.
Damian really liked his team. Especially once Phantom regained his powers.
----
People kept commenting on my three way crossover so here's a four way crossover with Batman x Danny Phantom x shin megami tensei 5 x Final Fantasy 7 just because I can.

Birdie completed her childhood aspiration so this is where I'm starting gen 2 ✨
Observations from playing just the base game:
There aren't enough high waisted bottoms 😱
@simpolcheeks makes fantastic base game builds and my experience wouldn't have been as good without them. Willow Creek Park is a particular favourite 🍃💖
The base game hairs they have added are really nice and varied
Decorating is fun and challenging because nothing matches and the swatch selection isn't great. Enjoying having to get creative!
Infant's have very little interactions in BG but they can try food in the high chair which I thought would be locked behind the Growing Together pack

Just for shits and giggles:
Headcanons for the Sparda boys and V as host club hosts? Platonic/sfw business only.
Sure here ya go--this one was a lot of fun to write.
Sparda boys + V x Reader as club hosts headcannons
¤ Dante ¤
-Dante is a terrible host.
-He completely forgets that he had customers in the first place and just runs off to a back room with all the alcohol and nearly all the food.
-If you manage to catch him in the act, confiscate any stolen items and get him to return to his duties, he will do so, reluctantly.
-Then he proceeds to get all the customers drunk as hell and challenges every last one of them to a dance off.
-Those who are not as inebriated as he is (or happen to have a few shreds of common sense left) will either pay their tab and leave, or will take advantage of the commotion and just leave without paying anything.
-The night ends with a destroyed club, several passed out guests draped over the furniture, and a pantsless Dante asleep in a closet wearing a drink stained Dr. Faust all while cuddling a bottle of whiskey.
■ Vergil ■
-Vergil is more like a strict grandpa than a welcoming host.
-He greets customers very dryly and glares at them the entire time, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.
-He presents the menu like an emotionally dead professor gives a presentation. Everything is perfect, clean, precise, and well-explained, except the whole thing lacks any cheer or friendliness. The customers begin to wonder if they're even wanted here.
-While customers eat, Vergil patrols the club; he is supposed to be providing guests with attention, and accomplishes this task, albeit differently.
-He keeps his eyes on the customers at almost all times, staring at them so intensely, they can feel his gaze pierce their souls.
-The guests eventually pay their tab and leave quietly, but they did not enjoy this experience. It was terrifying.
□ Nero □
-Nero is best host in the entire clan of Sparda.
-He's funny, greets the guests with gusto, and is great at scaring away creeps who prey on the other waiters/waitresses.
-He's not the best at giving presentations so he kinda fumbles the menu, but people don't mind, they're just enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of the club.
-Eventually, Nero's social battery runs out (he's an introvert, remember?) And he goes to recharge in the break room.
-People don't really notice his absence and carry on, enjoying the food and company of the other staff.
-The night ends with pleased guests who will most certainly be returning for more.
● V ●
-V is a very awkward host.
-It's not that he's incapable of eloquent speech, no, it's because he can't maintain eye contact for very long and gets nervous when people look at him.
-That, and his whispery, barely audiable voice makes it very hard for guests to understand him, much less feel comfortable around him.
-After a few moments of anxiously avoiding everyone's gaze while trying to explain the menus, V retreats to the break room and begs Griffon for help.
-Griffon agrees to help him by whispering guides into his ear, and it works!
-The night ends with happy customers who can't wait to come back and see their favorite awkward waiter with the cute pet birdie.

quiche - tim drake x reader (pretty bird countdown #7)
Tumblr media
"Welcome back." Tim looks up from the kitchen counter, smiling as you hand him the groceries.
"I'm home!"
"Where'd you go? You took a while today."
"Stopped at your parents' graves for a quick flower refresh. Also told them about how you're doing." You smile as he kisses your cheek. 
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"You were at work. I got groceries after."
"No car-jacking?"
"Nah." You shake your head. "I brought back ingredients. I had the overwhelming urge to cook today."
"Ah, speaking of which. I have an event soon that you should come for." Tim hums. "I'll get you a dress and take care of everything. You just need to show up."
"Will I be alone?"
"No. It's father's annual banquet."
"Mm." You nod. "Alright. If you insist. Ah, right."
Tim raises a brow.
"Happy mother's day." You snort, handing him the flowers.
"And what might I be mothering?"
You shrug. "Just figured to get you a bouquet too. Mom texted me that you had flowers delivered to her for mother's day. Thank you."
"I just hope the Chinese on the card was legible."
You laugh. "I'm sure it was. You don't need to send anything to my dad for father's day... just for reference."
"It'd be nice to send him something small. Don't worry." Tim hums. "I won't do anything too big. I know he doesn't know who I am exactly."
"Yes." You grin. "Maybe flowers?"
"Perhaps a nice tie."
"That works too." You hum. "Mom said thank you, by the way. She wants me to make you something in return."
Tim laughs. "It's good, pretty bird. Um. I cooked today— It's edible. Don't worry."
"I'm sure it is." You hum. "What'd you make?"
"Followed a recipe on..." He pauses. "Quiche. I was gonna do stir fry and then I remembered that it might ruin your experience with Chinese American food and decided against it."
"Well, Chinese American food is still... different." You hum. "Quiche for dinner sounds fun."
"It's low-key kind of good. I promise."
You pat Tim's back as he starts setting the groceries in the fridge, chewing quietly on his cooking as he watches for an expression. 
"It's good." You hum, brows lifted, pleased at the flavor on your tongue. "It's great, birdie. I like it."
"Yeah?"
"Yes. You're not that terrible of a cook. I promise." You hum. "It's good."
"If you say it too many times, I'm gonna think you're trying to convince yourself."
"I'm not." You cut a larger slice, resting them on your plates as he finishes with the groceries. "Come on. Let's eat."

Okay but how sweet would it be for Sally and Kim to have a (slightly awkward, but) wholesome friendship after he gave her that bird pic huh how fuckin cute would that be??
Sal and Kim Friendship Headcanons-
[CW: Unsanitary, bullying, weapon, mentions of murder and death, in-game themes]
>On the day everyone finds out Mrs. Packerton had died, Kim gives Sal the last of the bologna she has in the cafeteria walk-in because she knows how much he and his friends liked it. Sal is touched by the gesture and somehow manages not to gag while thanking her for it.
>When Sal goes through the lunch line, he and Kim always exchange pleasantries and have short chats about the birds in the courtyard, current school events, the latest episodes of popular TV shows, etc.
>Kim insists on giving Sal extra big helpings of food and will scold him if he doesn't finish what she scoops onto his tray.
"You are a growing boy Sally, you must eat so you can become big and strong! Now, go sit and finish before bell, or you get BIG BROCCOLI with NO CHEESEY SAUCE for dessert tomorrow!!"
Sal finds it a little irksome, especially when he's already stuffed to the gills, but does his best to comply because it admittedly feels nice to be subjected to a bit of motherly doting once in a while.... (Push comes to shove, Chug is always happy to help him make those last few bites disappear.)
>If one of them is absent due to sickness, the other takes note and worries. (Kim, because she can't help but be a bit of a mother hen over Sal, and Sal, because he fears the D.O.G. has claimed another person in his life as a victim.) They always expresses their concern and relief when the absentee returns to school.
>They empathize with each other regarding their respective deformities/disabilities and the othering they both experience because of said conditions.
Kim understands feeling self-conscious about appearances, as she's very sensitive about hers, but encourages Sal to be proud of who he is and to not be afraid to knock some sense into those who say otherwise (to do this, she suggests utilizing a sock full of pennies. "Is lunch money that helps you keep your other lunch money! 😉").
Sal always sticks up for Kim any time one of the other students mocks her appearance, whether she's around to hear it or not. ("Kim may not be a looker, but at least she's not a rude, shallow asshat. Hope you REALLY LIKE the crustiest corner of the mac and cheese tray, cuz that's what you're gonna be eating every Tuesday until summer break. 🤷‍♂️")
>When his senior year is coming to an end, Kim gives Sal an old and obviously well-loved birding book as a graduation gift. The handwritten note on the inside of the cover reads:
Sally,
Spread your wings and fly like the birdies!
Your friend,
Kim
(P.S. Keep eating your veggies, you will grow soon!)
While Sal doesn't really use it, he keeps it on his bookshelf as a memento. He pages through it occasionally to look at the nice pictures and to do a little reminiscing about one of the precious few positive experiences he had while attending Nockfell High School.
>After the Addison Apartment murders, Kim is one of the few people who steps forward to be a character witness for Sal during his trial. Despite all the evidence against him, she insists that Sally is a
'... kind, smart, sweet boy. He cause mischief, been in some rough and tumbles, yes, but he NEVER MURDER anyone!! Kim is SURE about that!!"
Ultimately, her testimony was discredited by the prosecution for various nitpicky reasons, but Sal appreciated her vouch of confidence all the same....

Hey guys! I think I’ve finished Vampire Monty. I’ve never been super great at writing endings so we’ll see how I did. Thanks to @eat-the-lemons for the idea, and my amazing proofreaders @parathepineapple and @exploding-mush00m! Tag list: @random-potato-mil! Past chapters: one, two,and three!
Enjoy!
They finally made it back to Port Townsend.
“Uh so, I died in the Esther’s house. I swear I’m not going to lure you to some weird trap,” Monty prefaced their investigation with a shaky smile.
“Alright then Monty, lead the way,” Edwin said. They walked to Esther’s house and into her kitchen before Monty stopped.
“Okay so I died about right here,” he told them, pointing to a small scattering of black feathers.
“Crystal, can you read these?” Edwin asked, handing her one of the feathers.
“Yeah, okay,” she assured, taking the feather. Her eyes turned fully white as she read the feather. After a moment her eyes returned to normal and she looked at Monty.
“Jeez Monty, Esther was a major bitch!” she exclaimed, “You plummeted down and died, but about thirty-ish minutes after, a cat jumped over your body? After that you turned back into a human, or a vampire I guess?”
“A cat? You said a cat? Why does it have to be a cat?” Monty questioned, remembering his ordeal with the Cat King.
“Edwin mate, cats are kind of your thing,” Charles joked, “guess we’re taking a trip to the old Port Townsend cannery.” They began their trek towards the cat’s lair.
“Oh wow, the whole gang is here!” The Cat King called, appearing behind the group.
“What did you do to me?” Monty yelled, walking towards the Cat King.
“My little birdie experiment worked,” the Cat King seemed rather pleased with himself.
“What did you do?” Monty asked again, his anger rising.
“All my interesting supernatural acquaintances left and all I had was Tragic Mick, who is not the gossipy type. So I tried a little ritual I had heard of: a cat jumping over a corpse to create an undead bloodsucker, aka, a vampire. I wasn’t quite sure it would work with our crow here, but it appears it did!” he told them, prowling closer to Monty.
“Why would you want to talk to me? Don’t you have other beings to pester?” Monty really didn’t want to be a pawn in the Cat King’s game, again.
“Do you people not listen? I told you I had no one else to talk to! Jeez, you guys suck at paying attention.” The Cat King sighed, “Either way, I’m sure you haven’t eaten anything yet, so here.” He gestured at a body at the foot of his throne.
“Oh calm down,” he responded to the horrified looks from the group, “this lady abused animals. She isn’t going to waste either, Monty here will take his fill of blood, and the rest will go to my cats. Go on birdie.”
Monty slowly walked towards the corpse. As he drew near, the coppery scent of her blood became overpowering and he found himself draining her quickly. When he turned back, he saw everyone staring at him. He self-consciously wiped his mouth and averted his eyes, staring at the floor instead.
“So case closed, I guess?” He started sheepishly.
“Nah mate. We can’t have any loose ends can we?” Charles interrupted, looking at Edwin.
“That is true. While we have now figured out what you are, we have yet to answer where you will be staying or how you will be getting food,” Edwin added before the Cat King stepped up.
“He could stay here. There are unused rooms in the cannery and I often bring fresh bodies for my cats.”
“Monty what do you think?” Crystal asked, looking to him.
“Um, I guess I’ll stay in Port Townsend. I have a job at the library and I might be able to fix up Esther’s house or maybe find a different house to live in.” He said after a few minutes consideration, “I suppose I will have to find food, but I will be alright. Thank you for helping me. What is your fee? We’ll have to stop by the house so I can grab some more money.”
“Monty you covered the fee by buying my plane ticket over here. Believe me, we’re all good.” Crystal told him.
“Oh, alright then. But can I take you to lunch? I want to see if I can still drink stuff, or if everything is off limits.” Monty explained, silently begging to be able to still drink coffee. Crystal laughed, “Of course Monty, let’s go to Fountain Cafe. Have you been there? I think it’s pretty nice.” Monty let Crystal continue talking as she lead him to the cafe. He looked back at the Cat King and smiled before taking a step towards his new life.
The end!

For birdy boy: 1, 2, 4 and 10 😗
Happy headcanon
Eönwë loves food. Most of the time he's too polite to ask for it or join others during meals because, since he doesn't need to eat to survive, he wants to leave it for incarnates. But whenever it's socially acceptable to eat, such as during feasts or when he's explicitly invited, or someone offers him a treat or a meal, he's really happy about it and can be a little glutton💕
He just loves the feeling of being full and content and curling up in his warm nest for a nap after.
Sad headcanon
After the War of Wrath Eönwë developed obsessive preening habits (PTSD not helping with OCD...) due to repeated hallucinations of blood on his feathers. Unfortunately, due to the same "others need/deserve help more than I do" mindset, he hasn't gotten help and instead hides his symptoms.
He's now "fairer than ever" and his plumage is so soft and pure white that he could be featured in any detergent ad, but it came at the cost of the cute and unique patterns he used to have on his feathers and their opalescent luster (@numenhore this one's for you too🤍).
Leadership of the Host of the Valar
Much like Manwë in the past, Eönwë goes to war with great reluctance. That might come as a shock to those who know his nature as a warrior spirit and those who follow him and see his strong, competent "hero persona", yet it's very true. He doesn't mind having to fight if it's just his own fána on the line, but it's a very different story when others are involved and get hurt.
Eönwë essentially abides by the following quote from Ace Attorney: "The only time a lawyer can cry is when it's all over".
Snippet time - from a request for Gentle June
Mairon was not exactly known for patience, priding himself on his efficiency and chastising others for dawdling. This time, however, he seemed to be of a different opinion, eyeing the other disapprovingly.
"Take your time. Make yourself pretty." He smiled sweetly. "For me?"
"I can... try?" Eönwë wasn't sure what he meant.
He received a tender but somewhat condescending head pat from Mairon.
"I know you lack experience with these matters, but you are very good at following orders, are you not?" he purred.
"What matters?"
"I want you to get naked so I can touch you, Eönwë."
"...oh."

Homemade pasta sauce has been made. I added some canned diced tomatoes to extend the tomatoes I had, which I think made it a bit more bitter than it usually comes out (but I also used a different blend of homegrown tomatoes so that might have not helped). I'm added a bit of sugar, which I never do normally, and it helped a bit. I'll wait until it cools off to see if it needs other adjustments.

(transcript under the cut)
Previous (Part 2) | Next
Here's the third and final part! Hope you enjoyed this episode centered around the foster moms. I'd been waiting for the best moment to introduce them to you! You'll see them here and there in the future, and I hope to give them at least one joint episode per season.
Episode 5: Mother, Mother - Part 3
Scene 4 - Leuchtterm Bar und Grille, Lykke Center, Windenburg
[Evening breaks at a restaurant in town…]
Eva Capricciosa (Maître d'): Leuchtterm, how may I help you?
Clara Bjergsen: Björn, for God’s sake, stop sulking.
Patron: ...and then I told her, my daughter does not have bad gas!
Malcolm Landgraab (thinking to himself): This place is a fucking dump. Couldn't we have gone anywhere else?
Geoffrey Landgraab: Have a good day at school, Malcolm?
[Audreyanna sits with her father and his much younger fiancée. All are on their phones; little conversation is being made.]
Lloyd Brookestone: So…a little birdie told me that someone’s living in a full house.
Brylee O’Donnell: Yeah! You’re so odd, Anna. Fostering six teenagers? Is that even legal?
Audreyanna (thinking to herself): God-fucking-damnit
Audreyanna: It’s Audreyanna, thanks. Why am I not surprised that you two stalked me again? Was moving to Germany not a big enough hint?
Lloyd: I have my ways. And hey, I’m still your old man. You could have told me! I would have loved to advise you during the process.
Audreyanna: Like you’ve had experience with the foster system.
Lloyd: Maybe not, but I’ve had experience raising a teenager. Come on, Audreyanna, six kids? Talk about a trial by fire! (pauses) Besides, you’re not the only one expanding the Brookestone family…
Audreyanna (thinking to herself): You’ve got to be kidding me.
[Brylee and Audreyanna stand up so the former can display her slightly pregnant stomach.]
Brylee: Surprise! We wanted to tell you in person. Lloyd and I are going to be parents!
Audreyanna: What the fuck?!
Lloyd: Now, I know this is a bit unexpected…
[Brylee yawns loudly.]
Audreyanna: Unexpected isn’t the word, Dad. You mean to tell me that you got her pregnant? Has her frontal lobe even finished developing? Not to mention, you found out I’m going through something as big as fostering teens for the first time…and you decided to launch your fucking baby the first time we talked about it?
Brylee: Anna, don’t tear his head—
Audreyanna: How many times do I have to tell you that you can’t call me that?
Brylee: Okay, I know that we haven’t been the best of friends, but I thought you’d be happy for me. You know, as a woman.
Audreyanna: As a woman? You’re barely out of college! Shacking up with a 73-year-old man!
Lloyd (thinking to himself): I’ll just stay out of this one.
Brylee: Oh, and you’re so high and mighty, huh? Isn’t Evelyn older than you?
Audreyanna: …what? I mean, yeah, by ten months!
Brylee: There you go. I’m an adult perfectly capable of making my own decisions. I’m not trying to be your stepmom here.
Audreyanna: No, you’re just trying to give birth to a sibling that’s fifty years younger than me!
Brylee: Then ignore their existence! You’re pretty good at that. After all, isn’t what you’ve been doing to us?
Silence.
Lloyd: You’ve always been careful about hiding your life from me, Audreyanna. I don’t understand it, but fine. As long as you respect that we’re making our own life choices, too.
[The waiter arrives.]
Waiter: You guys ready to order?
Audreyanna: Please.
Geoffrey: Malcolm, it’s almost been an hour. The sun’s already set. Can you please just pick something to eat?
Malcolm: How does anyone eat this garbage food? I’ll just get a water.
[Some time later, the waiter reappears with the trio’s food.]
Waiter: Here you go. My, you guys are quiet all of a sudden.
[They dig in.]
Brylee: Gosh, this fake chicken is really delish! A fine testament to the wonders of tofu.
Audreyanna: Tofu, huh? I feel for that baby.
Brylee: If you must know, my doctor says it’s perfectly fine to—
Audreyanna: I don’t care that you’re vegan, Brylee. Just feed that kid greens or something. Anything but tofu.

Sooooo I just heard a small little tiny thing from a birdie
Someone on tumblr is spreading lies about “trans catfish creators who pretend to be pregnant” and my name was mentioned or someone is speaking shit
1- my pregnancy content has always been posted with the tag fake pregnancy and if not, I make sure it’s clear I AM NOT PREGNANT.
2- I’m not shy when it comes to my queerness, I’ve always been open about the fact i am transgender, and I’ve talked about my experiences.
3- my blog is a FEEDERISM BLOG, meaning im a feedee, not a pregnant woman, FEEDEE, I eat food.
So whatever stuff you hear around tumblr about me, huge chances are, it’s not true.

Made of Glass
Chapter eight: Unrequitable Generosity
The next few weeks started to merge together. The daily routine was set and unmoving with little to no time for much other than PT and lectures. Birdie is yet to experience a weekend pass as her CO finds every excuse to revoke hers week after week.
She had walked into the mess hall the day after Sobel’s failed attempt at starving her and took note of the lack of chalk circle. It had been smudged out and Sobel never explained himself or told her to stand in that spot again, he just glared at her as she stood in line. He still threw the occasionally comment at her but was mostly back to ignoring her presence.
She and the other women were finally allowed to shoot their weapons on the rifle range and while Birdie wasn’t bad at shooting she wasn’t great either.
Not like Shifty Powers. He was promoted to sharpshooter and eased through target practice. Birdie asked him one day how he got so good at shooting and he told her about his father. He had taught Shifty how to aim as soon as he was big enough to pick up a rifle. They often went hunting together, it’s how he spent most weekends back home in Virginia.
He gave her some tips like hand placement and how to brace for the recoil properly and it honestly helped her more than the advice from the actual instructor. Pretty soon she was hitting the target every time and getting more bullseyes than half of the men.
Shifty and Birdie spoke frequently, he was one of the men who joined the designated ‘Birdie table’ at meal times, along with Toye and Bill. Her latest collection of friends was growing; George Luz was almost always found alongside the woman, cracking jokes like it was his job.
Bull Randleman had become close with her too, they had many inside jokes and sayings that only the two of them seemed to understand, it was like they spoke another language. By extension; Johnny Martin, who had begun to stare down any one who whispered about Birdie, whether she was present or not.
Don Malarkey, Skip Muck and Alex Penkala were never separate and adopted the female into their exclusive trio. Skip kept trying to convince her to help him with practical jokes and pranks aimed at the other two but she never gave in, aiming to avoid offending her fellow second platoon men.
After bonding with Toye and Guarnere, the men of Easy company embraced Bernadette quickly. They knew she could handle herself, they had seen it first hand but many opted to treat her like their younger sister, some light teasing and vicious protection.
Birdie had noticed the decrease of catcalling or whistles thrown her way by non-Easy guys but made no comments, even though she knew someone had said something to cease that behaviour.
She had witnessed some Fox guy staring at her in her PT uniform one morning, he had opened his mouth wide, grinning like the Cheshire cat before quickly dropping the look of glee, closing his mouth and leaving. Birdie's eyes followed him in confusion as he left the area, she whipped her head around to look behind her and caught the tail-end of the multitude of death stares he was receiving from her friends. She wanted to laugh at them and playfully scold them but she settled on sending an appreciative smile and resumed the stretches Winters had set for them.
Birdie was scheduled to be on (what should've been her first) guard duty that night and the day was dragging on. She struggled up Currahee that morning, her legs ached more than usual.
During lunch, her appetite was non-existent, she picked at her food but eventually offered her plate to Toye and Guarnere who flanked her. Toye gave her a pointed look but accepted the food.
Birdie stood up too quickly and a wave of woozy light-headedness hit her, she braced onto the table in front of her for a moment before she was ready to move on.
A dull discomfort ached in her lower stomach and she finally clicked onto what was happening. She had been off all day and wondering why but now she understood, her monthly had arrived.
Easy had lectures that afternoon, Thank God, so when Bernadette excused herself to use the bathroom finding crimson leaking into her undergarments was exactly what she'd expected. She hurried off to retrieve a health sponge and headed back into the lecture hall after cleaning up and applying it.
The pain only seemed to worsen and pool in her head as she sat and listened to the droning tone the lecturer used. For the rest of the day her skull hurt as much as, if not more than her stomach.
“You okay, Bernadette?” Eugene Roe had spoken up at dinner, he had seen her pale over the course of the day and noticed her avoidance of food increase since that morning. Toye and Guarnere stiffened beside her, waiting for her answer.
Birdie nodded with a weak smile on her face, she didn't want to worry her friends, she could pull through. It wasn't usually this bad but today her womanly time had hit her hard and all at once and now the only thing on her mind was her night shift and how she would rather run up Currahee ten times than wake up at one in the morning.
“Just tired. Thanks, Doc.” Birdie mumbled, resting her head on her folded arms that lay on the table and closing her eyes. Nausea rolled over her body causing her to sit up in a flash and excuse herself. Her friends watched her go, troubled by her abnormal behaviour, Toye mentally reminded himself to check up on her the next day.
Bernadette rushed to the dedicated women's bathroom and dry heaved into the trash can, not having enough time to make it to a toilet. She had a thin sheen of sweat covering her forehead, reaching her arm up she wiped it away.
“Birdie?” A melodious voice echoed into the lavatories. “Are you alright? I saw you run in here.”
“Yeah....” Her tone wasn't very convincing. She stood and adjusted her clothes once she had caught her breath, Harriet watched her splash water on her face and regain her bearings.
“Oh, honey.” Harriet sympathised with the brunette, she didn't look well, it was either some sort of illness or a really agonizing period. When Birdie clutched at her lower stomach Harriet knew which one.
“Come on, you need to rest up. I bet Sobel will have you running Currahee tomorrow.” The blonde held onto Birdie's arm and guided her to their shared barracks. No doubt the woman needed to lie down.
“Here.” She offered her poorly friend some water, Birdie gulped it down happily and the sick feeling that racked her body began to mute. The southerner changed into her sleeping clothes and crawled face down into her sheets, which were held open by the angel of How company.
“A full nights sleep will do you some good, I'll tell the other girls to keep it quiet tonight.” She rubbed small circles onto her friends back, attempting to help her aching body feel better.
“Except I have fourth shift tonight.” She mumbled, eyes closed and ready to pass out.
“I'll cover for you.” Her brown eyes blinked open, she pushed her body up onto her elbows and stared blankly at the blonde woman sat on the edge of her bed.
“I can't ask you to do that.” Bernadette was dumbstruck by the offer, touched by the kindness of her fellow woman.
“You're not asking, I'm offering.” Harriet put slight pressure on Birdie's shoulders, signalling for her to lay down flat on the bed.
“Really? You sure?” Birdie's muscles ached and she felt her body begin to shut down out of sheer exhaustion.
“Of course I'm sure.”
“Okay, but only if I cover your next shift in return.” Birdie mumbled out, sinking into her pillow and mattress fully.
“Deal. It's next week.”
“Thanks, Harri.” Birdie's voice was barely a whisper, she shut her eyes once more and dozed off soundly. Harriet smiled warmly at the Easy company girl and tugged her blanket up around her shoulders.
————————————————
Everyone knew something was wrong the second they woke up.
Loud bangs sounded from the door of the women’s barracks instead of the usual trumpet that roused them from their sleep. Birdie sat up in her cot, startled and looked around the room in confusion. Most of the others were sitting up now too, just as dazed and confused as her.
The blaring knocks came again and this time Lucy, who was closest to the door stood up to answer it. By now, the ladies were getting out of their beds and pulling on jackets to keep decent in front of their unexpected visitors.
Bernadette looked over to her right, the sight of Harriet's empty, unused cot made her uneasy. She should have been back and curled up in her blankets by now but her presence was lacking and it worried Birdie greatly.
Her mind was still catching up with what was going on when three men entered the room. As the door swung shut she got a glimpse of several more uniformed men lurking outside the steps of the barracks, talking amongst themselves.
“Ladies.” Colonel Sink's unmistakable drawl rung in Birdie's ear and she turned her head to see him stand with Major Strayer and a Lieutenant she'd not yet met. They had grim looks strewn upon their faces and Birdie felt like she could vomit. Her intuition was screaming at her that something bad had happened.
Something really bad.
“Where's Harriet?” She couldn't stop her thoughts from falling out of her mouth. Sink's eyes went straight to her, he grimaced before explaining the events that had brought him to the barracks so early in the morning.
The room went deadly silent.
Connie gasped, slapping her hand to her mouth in shock, Blythe and Charlotte hung their heads. Several jaws were dropped but nobody said anything, really allowing the news to be comprehended.
“Can we see her?” It was Lucy who asked the question, her hands fidgeted in attempts to distract herself.
“I'm afraid that's not possible. Private Huntington was transferred to Atlanta City hospital an hour ago. She's elected an honourable discharge....She will not be returning.”
