Must-Have Tools for Every Baker: Essential Cake Decorating Kits

As we can see, nowadays, everyone is talking about the basics of cake and the essential cake decorating tools required to enhance your cake decorating skills and make the perfect stunning cakes using the right ingredients. Having the right tools helps to make delicious cakes with the perfect designs and patterns. There are a lot of gadgets and tools in the market that you spend your money on, but they won’t help you make these beautiful cakes. From turntables to cake scrapers, these tools are like magic wands that help you create beautiful cakes. So, let's dive in and discover how these tools can help you become a cake decorating pro! Let’s focus on the essentials required to create amazing cakes.

Essential Cake Decorating Tools

Turntable

The turntable is the first and most important tool among cake decorating tools. This is one of the biggest game changers in the decorating. There are a lot of turntables in the market, so depending on how much you are decorating the cakes will help to determine the type of turntable you should buy. If you make the birthday cake occasionally, you should purchase something less expensive. If you make the cakes annually, then you can buy the one that is a bit costly. A turntable has two separate pieces so the top spins very nicely. The base is a bit heavy mostly made of iron so it does not move while the top moves. There are some turntables available on the market that are made of plastic, but the other ones are more durable. 

Cake Scrapper

Another must-have tool for cake decorating is the cake scraper.  A cake scrapper is a tool that is used to smoothen the sides of the cake. Over the years, many variations based on the height, material, and thickness of scrappers have come into the market, but are not all equal. The superior quality of all the scrappers is in weight and thickness. But, it is sometimes not good for the bigger cakes because it has textures on all sides. The scraper must be thin and light so that it is easily handled and you can keep all the scrapers with separate textures in the form of a set. It is essential for birthday cakes, wedding cakes and more!

One of the best things you hear from the customers who have bought and used the tools from RFAQK is that they are satisfied with the high quality and durability of the tools, which makes a major difference in their decorating.

Icing Spatulas

Everyone needs a good set of icing spatulas along with the scrapers and turntables, one straight and the other curved. The straight spatula is mostly preferred by customers for the sides of the cake while the curvy one is preferred for the top. Spatulas must have the right length, which is essential while using it to smoothen the frosting because some blades are short, making it difficult to frost the sides of the cakes. Some blades are very long, which makes it hard to control the spatula while decorating.

Acrylic Disk

Another tool that will change the cake decoration game is the acrylic disk, which helps get the sharp edges and straight sides without any hassle. We provide an ebook along with a pack or set of cake decorating tools so that customers can easily understand how to use these tools in cake decorating.

Quality Cake Pans

Another important thing we should invest the money in is good quality cake pans, which are made to evenly distribute the heat in the pan to make a perfectly baked cake. This means we will get an even cake rather than one with uneven sides while baking.

Cake Leveler

A cake leveler is a tool that is used to level the sides and top of the cake. Each side has numbers on it that are used to line up the wire to level the cake perfectly. This tool can be used by anyone whether he is a beginner or a professional baker.

Cake Lifter

Have you ever wondered, how we love the cakes from the turntables to the beautiful cake stand where we want to present? This tool is called a cake lifter and is as simple as any other tool we provide at RFAQK. The cake lifter is a bit heavy but supports your cake nicely. Just make sure you don’t only rely on the cake lifter, you also need to get it out through your hand to support the cake. Stacking all the pieces of cake is not a problem now when you have the cake lifter in your baking space.

Cake Boards

Cake boards are something you can easily find in the local craft stores but if they are not of good quality, don’t compromise on them. They come with a pre-cut under the cake, which will help you easily slide the cake lifter and move the cake from the cake board.

Parchment Paper

You should buy parchment paper to give a very professional look to your cakes and using a combination of cooking spray and parchment paper will help the cake to come out easily. Pre-cut parchment rounds are also available, and you can trace the pans on parchment paper and cut out each circle. Whichever way you decide to go, you must make sure that you spray the pans with nonstick spray, place the parchment paper at the bottom of the pan, and then respray the paper.

We understand the importance of having reliable tools that make a tangible difference in your cake decorating experience. Our satisfied customers attest to the high quality and durability of our products, which have revolutionized their decorating endeavors. Whether you're a novice baker or a seasoned professional, our cake decorating kits provide everything you need to unleash your creativity and achieve bakery-worthy results.

Birthday boys

warning: none

characters: jude x mom!reader

summary: when Jude and your baby boy are having a birthday

may contain spelling and translation errors!

The sun had just begun to light up Birmingham when little Benjamin jumped out of bed, his eyes wide with excitement. He already knew that today was a special day —it wasn’t just his birthday, but daddy’s too! He could barely contain his excitement as he prepared to celebrate the big day.

You were already used to Benji’s morning enthusiasm, but today he seemed to be on a whole new level. Even before seven in the morning, the little boy was already in his parents’ room, shaking up the house.

—Daddy, mommy, wake up!

The baby said, jumping on the bed next to you.

Jude, with a sleepy smile, slowly opened his eyes and pulled his son closer, wrapping him in a hug.

—Hey, birthday boy! Good morning! —He said, his voice hoarse with sleep.— How old are you today, huh?

—Two!

Little Bellingham exclaimed, raising two little fingers proudly in the air.

You laughed as you stroked your son's soft curls.

—And how old is daddy today, Ben?

Benji frowned, trying to remember, before speaking excitedly:

—Twenty-one!

—That's right! —Jude replied with a laugh, feigning surprise. —You have a good memory, baby.

The truth was that this day had not been a coincidence. Jude had always dreamed of sharing his birthday with his son. When Benji was about to be born, Jude managed —thanks to a team of doctors and a little bit of luck — to "negotiate" the birth so that it would be on the same day as his birthday. One of those things that only stubborn dad can do.

The shared birthday had become an annual event full of meaning. It was a moment that symbolized the special bond between father and son, and you were always delighted to see the joy in their eyes each year that passed.

—Today is going to be an incredible day! —you said, excited. —We have so many surprises for you two...

Benji could barely contain his curiosity, while Jude, pretending not to know anything, raised an eyebrow with a curious smile.

—Surprises? What are you up to, huh, Y/n?

You shrugged, looking mischievous.

—You'll see.

——

Later that morning, after a lively breakfast —with Benji insisting on eating pancakes with "lots, lots" of fruit and syrup—, you started preparing things for the birthday party.

There were balloons scattered around the house, all in shades of yellow and white, and a table full of sweets and savory snacks. In the center of the table, two cakes: a large one, covered in the colors of England for Jude, and a smaller cake, with drawings of dinosaurs, everything Benjamin loved.

—Look at that! —He pointed to the cakes as he helped put up the decorations. —Who made these amazing cakes?

—Mommy!

The little boy replied, still with a bit of pancake syrup on his chin.

You laughed.

—Well, I helped choose the theme, but we have to thank grandma Adèle for the cake, and grandma Denise for the decorations!

The guests started arriving late in the morning. The house was full of family and friends. Your parents, came from Manchester for the occasion, as did Keegan, your younger brother, who brought gifts and a lot of energy, especially to entertain his nephew.

—Happy birthday, champ!

Keegan said, lifting Benji in the air and spinning him around while the boy laughed out loud.

Jobe, Jude's younger brother, also arrived excited, bringing gifts and greeting everyone with a warm hug.

—Looks like the party's already started, huh? —Jobe said in his thick English accent, handing Jude a large, wrapped box. —I just hope you're not too old to enjoy it, Jude.

Jude laughed, hugging his brother.

—I still have energy, don't worry.

While everyone was busy with the party preparations, father and son disappeared for a moment, going to the backyard. Jude had promised his baby something special for that birthday: a little soccer match between the two of them. Benjamin already had his own Real Madrid kit, a miniature version of his father's uniform, and was more than ready to play.

—Go, Ben! Show daddy how you kick!

Jude encouraged his baby.

He kicked the ball hard, determined, despite his short steps. The ball rolled a few meters and Jude made a big show of pretending it had been an unbeatable kick. He threw himself to the ground dramatically, as if he had been defeated by a great kick.

—Bellingham’s goal!!!!

The boy shouted, laughing as he got up and ran to Benji, lifting him in the air as if he had just scored the most important goal in the world.

The scene made you smile from the balcony, watching the two play. For you, these moments were the most precious —seeing Jude and Benjamin together, making memories that would last forever.

After the little soccer game, everyone went back inside, where the party was already in full swing. The boys were the center of attention, with everyone taking pictures and singing happy birthday.

—Time to open the presents!

Someone shouted, and Benji ran to the pile of colorful packages.

Your husband, smiling, approached you, wrapping you in a hug from behind as you watched your son tear through the wrapping paper with excitement.

—You did everything perfectly, babe.

He whispered in your ear.

You smiled, leaning back against his chest.

—I just wanted you two to have the best birthday possible.

—Mission accomplished.

He kissed the top of your head.

As the afternoon wore on, the house grew more and more lively. Benjamin ran around with his new toys, while Jude spent time chatting with friends and family. The atmosphere was one of pure happiness, a simple party, but full of love.

At the end of the day, when night fell and the guests began to say goodbye, you finally had a moment to rest. Sitting on the couch, with your son asleep between you, wrapped in blankets after a day full of emotions, you looked at each other with satisfied smiles.

—It was quite a day.

Jude commented, looking at your sleeping son.

—Yes, it was. —You replied, holding his big hand. —And I couldn’t be happier to share this day with you two.

Jude looked at you, his eyes shining with gratitude.

—You’re amazing, Y/n. Thank you for everything.

You smiled, caressing his hand.

—Always, Jude. Always.

Who's a good boy?

Lucifer x reader

A/N: I've wanted to write a romantic scenario for my second best boi (first is Alastor, obvi) so here we go. Look at how cute he is :3

It was another day in hell, just as hellish as the day before. You couldn't complain though, having found a home at the Hazbin Hotel.

You were there at its doorstep the day the princess of hell proposed her idea on the news. Despite its bad reception, you knew you had to go visit. You had no clue why you were in hell in the first place, having made sure you were good when you were alive. So, a place in hell that was made for redemption and a chance to go to heaven meant the world to you.

Being in hell helped you get used to the manipulative and cruel sinners that walked down the streets like they hadn't just killed off a bunch of people two seconds ago.

Even though Charlie was an exception when it came to the people you'd usually meet, you hadn't expected her dad, the literal king of hell, to be such a sweetheart.

⊰──── 《∘◦♡◦∘》 ────⊰

You were with the other residents of the hotel, decorating the place the moment Vaggie got on your asses about making the best first impression for Lucifer's arrival.

You had been tasked with baking cookies. Given your affinity for the culinary world when you were alive, you started on your task right away. You pulled out the glazed soft apple cookies, your favorite, from the oven and left it on the kitchen table to rest. You stood there guarding the dish, just in case Niffty tried to take some for herself.(She did but you held her back pretty easily).

"Ok guys, it's showtime!" Charlie yelled suddenly. You rushed to the hotel lobby with your tray of cookies and stood there with the others. You wished you had more time to tidy up but your flour-caked hair and apron would have to do.

Charlie opened the door to reveal a short pale man with a ridiculously large hat. That...was Lucifer?

"CHARLIE!" the man exclaimed, wounding his arms around his daughter's frame and hugging her tight.

"H-Hi Dad!" Charlie stuttered as she struggled for breath. Once she was finally let go, she took a deep breath in and showcased the somewhat okay-ish decor of the hotel and its residents.

You saw Lucifer bend down and give his attention to the little kit "Kee Kee" and then turn his attention to "Razzle" and "Dazzle". You chuckled at his behavior. No way was the original bad boy of hell this adorable.

After his unsavory introduction to Alastor, Charlie started introducing him to every one of you.

"Annnd, this is our resident baker! They make amazing treats for everyone from time to time!" Charlie said, introducing you to her dad.

"Greetings your majesty, it is a pleasure to meet you," you gave a little bow, "I made some cookies for you to try, if you like."

Lucifer picked one cookie from your tray and inspected it for a bit, before taking a bite. You did not know whether you held your breath because you were scared of his critique or because you did not realize how gorgeous he looked up close. He was an angel, alright.

His eyes lit up and he looked up at you, "This is excellent! You really have a talent in this."

Your face heated up at his compliment and you mumbled out a small thank you.

This was your very first interaction with the king of hell.

⊱ ──── 《∘◦♡◦∘》 ──── ⊰

After the fight against the angels and the rebuilding of the hotel, Lucifer started spending more time at the hotel to help out his daughter.

While searching for Charlie, he found you bustling around in the kitchen, preparing something.

"What are you doing?"

Your head hit the underside of the cabinet at the sudden interruption. You emerged out with a whisk in hand, nursing your wound.

"Y-your majesty, I was making a strawberry rhubarb pie...well, at least trying to," your eyes glanced over at the mess that was your creation. Instead of a flaky solid crust, you ended up with something that could only be described as "a lump" and your fillings decided to make themselves known outside the crust, spreading all over your pie- almost resembling a massacre.

You were usually good at stuff like this. You wondered what you got wrong with this particular recipe.

Lucifer hummed and asked for the recipe.

"I suppose it's only best to start over, shall we?" he said, as he started walking towards where the bag of flour was kept. You could only follow behind him, your face flabbergasted. You suddenly felt very nervous.

What you would come to find out, during this little interaction, was that Lucifer was really good at baking. Like, really really good. His hands were swift but precise when handling the dough and his instructions were clear and concise as the two of you worked through the steps to create the perfect rhubarb pie.

When you pulled out a successful pie from the oven, your eyes gleamed with excitement. You looked over at Lucifer, who was already getting ready to slice up the pie.

"Thank you for helping me out, Your Majesty, " you said, giddily, "Your baking skills are honestly out of this world!"

Lucifer laughed, his smirk widening, "Well of course! Just because I rule all of hell, doesn't mean I can't bake a mean pie!"

He looked at you and said, "And please, do call me Lucifer."

⊱ ──── 《∘◦♡◦∘》 ──── ⊰

Over time, the two of you bonded over your love for cooking. He would frequently join in on your cooking/baking escapades, sometimes acting as the taste tester for your new creations. You enjoyed his presence and grew comfortable with him as the days went on. Safe to say, he felt the same way.

One day, you decided to visit him in his workshop with a plate of freshly prepared caramel apples --something Lucifer himself taught you.

You knocked on the door, announcing your arrival, "Lucifer! It's me! May I come in?"

You heard a loud crash on the other side of the door and a very distinct "shit shit shit" coming from the king of hell himself. Your brows scrunched up in worry. What was that man up to?

You were about to barge into the room yourself but you were interrupted by the door opening to reveal a very disheveled Lucifer.

He called out your name, "Welcome to my workshop! What brings you here?"

As you entered the room, your eyes gazed upon the innumerable rubber ducks that spread across the area. You almost stepped over one as you made your way inside.

"Pray tell," you turned towards him, eyes narrowed in scrutiny, "What was that loud crash I heard?"

"What crash?" Lucifer chuckled uncomfortably, his eyes looking everywhere else but yours.

You sighed and placed the tray of caramel apples on his work desk.

"You do realize I've spent enough time with you to know when you're lying, yes?" you enquired.

He tsked, "Lying? pshhh, I don't lie!"

You have a half-hearted nod, clearly not believing his bullshit. He ignored your obvious sarcasm and moved closer to the delicious treats laid out on the desk.

"Oh my! You managed to make these all by yourself!" his hands reached out to one of them, taking a bite, "And they're delicious!"

You chuckled, "Well I did learn from the best, didn't I?"

His pale complexion reddened as he avoided your eyes once more, focusing more on the treat he was munching on.

You were about to ask him about the crash you heard again, but you were interrupted by a loud oink at the door.

"Fat Nuggets!" you cheered, as you got down on what little space was available to you at the mercy of the overbearing amount of ducks in the room.

You patted your knees which signaled to the little pig to come bounding towards you. You giggled as he jumped into your lap and snuggled into you.

You scratched his pinkish skin, "Who's a good boy?"

"Me."

Your hands paused, resting on the pig who let out a single oink. Your face started heating up as you looked up towards Lucifer, who was still focused on munching on the caramel apples, already having had two.

"I-I'm sorry...w-what?" you stuttered.

Lucifer turned around to look at you , mid bite. His face scrunched up in confusion, "What?"

Silence occupied the room for a few seconds, save for the pig oinking every now and then.

It was as if the light bulb popped up on top of Lucifer's big hat and his face started turning the same colour as the bright red caramel-dipped apples he was chewing on.

"I-..." Lucifer trailed off, suddenly finding it difficult to swallow his meal.

Picking up the pig into your arms, you got up. Unable to meet his eye, afraid that he would see your face flushed in embarrassment, you said, "Welp, I guess it's time for me to do..the thing I was...supposed to be doing!"

Before you could turn around on your heel, Lucifer reached out, "W-wait a minute-"

You gasped as he stepped on one of his rubber ducks and stumbled to the floor, his hat falling off his head.

"I'm okay!" he grumbled, as he got up, his hands dusting over his garments. He picked up his hat and brushed over it once, before putting it on his head. He looked towards you, confused to see your eyes trained on something lying on the ground.

His eyes followed yours and landed on a rubber duck. A rubber duck that bore a very similar resemblance to well...you.

Lucifer fumbled, picked up the duck, and hid it away from your sight,.

"Oooh boy, how did that get there, haha!" he laughed, awkwardly.

Your face might as well start boiling at this point.

"D-did you make that....for me?" you enquired, the pig already having jumped out of your hands and on his way back to his owner.

Lucifer's eyes widened as he sheepishly said, "Maybe?"

You walked closer to him.

"M-may I see it?" you asked.

Lucifer gulped once, before moving his hands from behind his back, to reveal the duck he had spent so much time working on.

You gently took his creation from his hands and held it in the palms of your own, your eyes lighting up as you looked at the mini-duck version of yourself.

"I-I promise, I wasn't being creepy," Lucifer started, "I was going to give this to you once I worked on it a little more. I know it looks a bit undone and-"

"It's lovely," your voice interrupted him.

His golden heart started beating impossibly louder at the sight of your widening smile. You were smiling...at something he made... for you. He worried if you could hear his heartbeat.

"I- I'm still not satisfied with the product, " he looked towards the floor, fixing his bowtie out of nervousness.

You let out a chuckle, "Is that what the loud crash was about? Did you fall out of your chair trying to hide this from me?"

He looked towards you, embarrassed that you'd guessed right. You laughed louder at his silent admission. Watching the king of hell squirm under your gaze as his face turned fully red, was indeed a sight to behold.

You tiptoed closer to him, took off his hat, and gently lifted his tomato-faced visage. His eyes widened as you cheekily smiled at him. Then you kissed his forehead, relishing in the way he stiffened. He was too adorable for your own good.

You stepped back, putting his hat back on his head, and placed the incomplete duck version of your likeness into his trembling hands.

"Do keep working on it till it is to your satisfaction, hm?" you said.

He nodded his head fervently. His face still held the same shade of red.

What came next was something he swore would be his undoing.

You leaned in closer and whispered in his ear, "Good boy."

It took him a while to recover from that assault.

Save the Date || Closed RP @80s-pizza-party

With the hustle and bustle of the holidays over and done with, the new year in the Pizzaplex settled into much the same pattern as the one before it. True, some things had certainly changed in twelve months. The player wasn't coming around much anymore, not even to play Ruin, so Vanessa didn't have much in the way of glitch reports to file; she ended up enrolling in a couple of recreational classes taught by a sprite-based organization at the Gray Market, the same ones who put together things like the winter carnival and fall festival, and now she spent two evenings a week studying botany and art history. Speaking of classes, the kids still had their weekday morning lessons, though sign language was now mixed in with Reading Club and Science Club -- aka gathering together to chip away at a chapter book and doing some basic kid-friendly experiments. Meanwhile, the Glamrocks got together for jam sessions fairly often, and Monty often pounded away at his drum kit even when everyone else wasn't present.

In the midst of all this, Freddy and Bonnie sat down and began planning their wedding. Weekday mornings when the kids were in class had always been their time to get together, to listen to music, dance, or simply talk, but now they spent many of these meetings figuring out the details of the ceremony.

Pretty much all of the major characters of the game would be participating in some way, depending on their area of expertise. Chica was in charge of catering and baking the cake, Roxy would take care of hair and makeup for those who needed it, Eclipse would deal with all wardrobe-related concerns. Monty and Gregory would be the best men, while Cassie and Cassidy were the ring bearer and flower girl, respectively. DJ would provide music for the ceremony and reception. Sun was assigned to decorations, Moon was the bouncer (and also organizing a sleepover for the children on the night of the big day, so that Bonnie and Freddy could spend their first night as a couple together), and Vanessa had offered to do the flower arrangements, although Freddy had also asked her to officiate; she was the only one he could think of to do so.

Around the twentieth of January, after considering and rejecting a Valentine's Day wedding, Freddy and Bonnie finally sent out their "Save the Date" messages. The ceremony would take place on Saturday, the thirteenth of April, just two weeks after Easter. And these messages, the prelude to official invitations, made their way across the Pizzaplex as well as to their neighbors in Help Wanted, following the approximate guest list of the Christmas party.

hi again heh it’s me. pls lmk if i’m asking too much/too many things.

it’s mother’s day and abby wants to surprise reader with breakfast in bed so she kind of plans it with bucky as a secret and they like giggle around reader etc and reader is confused but trust to know they are both safe. after one exhausting day at work reader comes home and immediately knocks out so it’s j buck and abby prepping everything for the next day and abby is painting pictures while buck is perfecting a small cake BUT THEN abby gets a paper cut and starts crying so reader shoots up stumbles in and see her baby crying rushing to her completely missing the decorations and shit( cus yk exhausted) then once reader realizes she breaks down in tears herself cus she just loves them both.🧹

Thank you for a sweet Ask! I just realized that these Asks are not in any chronological order. I haven't quite figured that out their relationship timeline. I was like, "Can Abby call him Papa in this Ask?" I just let her because it's cuter.🤭

While you're in the shower, Bucky and Abby plan how to surprise you for Mother's Day. "So, what should we do for Mama on Mother's Day?"

"I mades a card at scoon. It so pretty!"

"I don't doubt it, I'm sure it's very pretty. But how about something from me & you? We can do something for Mama, too."

Gasping, "Oooh! I wike it! Okies!" Abby claps.

"Maybe we can make Mama breakfast in bed?"

"Oh no! Mama no wikes. She gets so mads with crumbs in the bed. Eating in beds is a no-no."

Bucky laughs, "Oh, ok. Maybe not that. We don't want her mad. We can make her breakfast out here and we can decorate."

"Yes!!"

You walk down the hallway, "Yes, what?"

"Mama, we..." Bucky covers Abby's mouth with his hand and he smiles at you. He suddenly pulls back his hand staring down at Abby, "Did you just lick me?!"

You laugh & Abby cackles, "She does that. What are you two up to?"

"Nothing." Bucky trying to look innocent but Abby looks like she dying to say something.

"Abigail? Is there something you want to tell me?" Abby desperately looks at Bucky for help.

"C'mon, don't do that to her. That's not fair." Bucky wraps Abby in his arms, pulling her back against him.

"Fine, keep your little secrets."

*****

The past 48 hours have been so hectic! A mission had gone sideways and Fury kept you at the Tower until the early morning hours. They had lost contact with a team & a 2nd team needed to be deployed. You weren't able to go home until the wee hours of the morning. Luckily, Bucky was on neither team, so he was able to stay with Abby.

"Sleep, doll," kissing your temple & getting out of bed, "I got Abby." You mumble a thank you & roll over back to sleep.

Bucky had outlined "Happy Mother's Day" on card stock and gave it to Abby to color in while he got things together. It started to look really cute. They had streamers tied to the dining room chairs. Bucky had picked up a bunch of fresh flowers so there were arrangements on the dining table and coffee table. He was starting to feel real good about pulling this off without a hitch.

******

You're woken out of your sleep by Abby letting out a scream and starts crying. You jump out of bed, "Abby? Abigail??" She doesn't answer, but you still hear crying. You run down the hall, quickly glancing in her room, but it's empty.

"Mama!!" You see Bucky carrying her, holding Abby's hand under the faucet. "Mama!"

"Abby!"

"It's ok. She's alright. It's just a bad paper cut."

"I's NOT alright! See's all the blood??"

Bucky presses a paper towel in her hand, "Hold this tight." He transfers Abby into your arm as you sink to the kitchen floor, with Abby cuddled in you lap. Bucky grabs the first aid kit from the cupboard.

"Let, Mama, see." You take her hand in yours and across her palm there is a thick slice. "How'd you get this?"

Bucky takes her little hand is his and starts dressing her cut with Neosporin and gauze. "She was coloring the sign I made on cardstock." You cringe imagining getting sliced by cardstock. Which explains why the slice was so thick.

"I runned-ed my hand on top and I got owiees." Abby wipes tears from her cheeks. "And now i's made the sign ugly and the s'prise is junk now. I sowwy."

"Hey, it's not junk." Bucky tilts Abby's chin up. "Don't be sorry."

"What surprise?" You start looking around and you notice all the decorations and flowers.

"We wanted to do something nice for you, for Mother's Day, Doll." Bucky helps you stand with Abby in your arms. You were so exhausted and focused on getting to Abby, you didn't notice all the decorations earlier.

You whisper, "You did this all for me?"

"You still s'prise??" Abby does a happy wiggle in your arms.

You squeeze Abby tight & kiss her forehead, but you meet Bucky's gaze, "This is the best Mother's Day I've ever had. Thank you."

"You melcome, Mama!!"

You sit on the couch with Abby on your lap & Bucky by your side. "I think you forgot to bring out Mama's presents."

"Oh, yeah!! Don't move Mama. Stays right here." You hear the slap of her feet running down the hallway.

You lean into Bucky, "This was so sweet of you. Thank you so much."

"You deserve it. You're an amazing mother to Abigail." He wipes your tears away, but not before Abby sees it.

"Mama?? Why cry? You don't wikes..."

"No. No. No. These are happy tears, baby. You and Bucky make me feel like the best Mama in the world!"

Abby climbs back into your lap, "Cos you is!" She squishes your face between her palms. "No cries." She gives you a loud kiss on the cheek.

You gush over the Mother's Day card she made at school. And then she gives you a little gift box. "More? What is this?"

Abby goes to Bucky, hopping up and down, "Me and Papa picks it out!"

You open it and it a beautiful vintage style locket. "It's beautiful."

"You loves it?? It's a rocket!!"

You laugh, "Locket, not rocket."

"Oh." She leans up against Bucky, embarrassed. He drops a kiss on her head. "Look inside, Mama!"

You open it and there's a picture of Abby from the Fair at the compound. That was such a magical day. "I love it, Abby! Thank you so much!" She throws herself into your arms for kisses. "Why did you leave the other side empty?"

A little blush tinges Bucky's cheeks, "I didn't want to assume..." You pull him in for a kiss.

"You belong there. You and Abby make me complete. I love you."

His blush deepens and he gives you a boyish smile. "Lemme start breakfast. It'll be quick." He goes to the kitchen, while you & Abby scroll through your phone looking for a photo of Bucky to place in your new locket.

for real? for real. - nishimura riki x gn! reader

this is a pt. 2 from a drabble i posted a few days ago :) i had ppl in the comments ask for a pt 2 and the comments made me giggle. here is their tags and thank you for enjoying my content ❤️@keiipopped @kxppachu @sugariricookies @flaminghotyourmom - masterlist - wc- 200-300

holiday season was coming up, which meant the bakery was busy and you were stacked with hours. you didn’t have to deal with the public much as your manager kept you decorating. it was tense in the work place and it didn’t help that you haven’t spoken to riki since the freezer incident.

your manager told you to pick up pace and you nodded, running back and forth for waiting orders. tiered cakes. special frosted cakes. and more.

while everyone was busy working there was a yelp in the back and you called out.

“are you alright?!” you yelled out, your manager, jihyo, was up front helping the girls in the front counter.

“um…” one of the other frosters responded, it was taki. your brows furrowed and you walked over.

your eyes widening when you saw riki holding his hand on his white apron that was now stained red.

“riki cut his hand open! i don’t know what to do!”

it was sunday so the only real adult here was jihyo, baker bahng had weekends off.

your jaw fell to the floor and you walked over to him, you almost vomited when you saw his hand.

“it’s fine i’ll just wrap it up and continue fro-“

“GROSS DUDE NO…” taki yelled and shoved him, “go to the hospital! what if you bleed in the frosting! we’d get shut down! we don’t serve vampires! we can’t shut down i need this job!”

you felt nauseous, “i think i’m going to throw up..” you mumbled and got the first aid kit quick. you were quickly bandaging riki up. the moment quiet, well as quiet as it could be with taki freaking out. riki just kept watching you, a soft look on his features. jihyo came to the back and saw riki and her eyes widened, “good lord what happened?!”

“um…” riki looked awkward and looked at her. jihyo immediately sent him to have his sister pick him up and take him to the doctor. he could pick up his car later.

and so for the rest of the day riki was absent until closing when he came to pick up his bags and car. he walked into the bakery and saw you cleaning your station.

“busy?”

you looked up at him, your heart jumped you were worried and you missed him, “fuck are you alright?” you walked up to him and looked at his hand. he got new bandages and they pretty much just stitched him up.

“i’m okay… do you have a ride home?” he asked, you shook your head no, “you do now. we need to talk anyways.”

you felt your breath hitch and you became nervous, so you clocked out and the next thing you knew, you were in his car.

“can you even drive?” you asked softly, he looked at you, the lights from the dashboard illuminating his face, he had a small smirk as he turned around to back up the car.

“yeah i can drive. my hand is fine..” he murmured and then started to drive

“don’t you need my address?” you asked.

“after food. i’m hungry and i assume you haven’t eaten in awhile?” he side eyed you, you nodded.

“it was too busy.” you mumbled shyly. he nodded and took you guys to a drive through. he paid for your food and he parked in the back of the parking lot.

“so i wanted to talk to you because we went from arguing, to that moment in the freezer, to not speaking at all..” riki said and sipped his strawberry milkshake. you sipped your milkshake and nodded.

“i know and im sorry…” you mumbled and didn’t look at him. riki sighed and took a bite of his fries.

“i should apologize i think i made it weird..” he spoke and took a deep breath.

you looked at him now and immediately disagreed, “no! i’m awkward and weird and i’m shy an-“

riki started to laugh and he looked at you, his laugh was pretty sounding, “you’re so cute.”

you stopped talking and your jaw dropped.

his eyes tired and he ran a hand through his hair, “y/n, i like you. a lot. and i hope it’s not weird.”

your face was pink and you thanked god it was dark in the car, “you actually like me?”

riki started to laugh again, “y/n! yes! obviously!”

you looked at him, “like for real?”

the boy looked at you funny and put his hand on your cheek, leaning in, his eyes dancing across your features and they landed on your lips, “for real…”

your eyes looked at him, you wanted to kiss him so badly.

“can i kiss you..?” he asked quietly, almost scared you’ll say no.

you nodded and he smiled as he leaned in to kiss you.

when his lips met yours a million sparks went off and your hands went to his shoulders as he leaned into the center console to kiss you. he tasted like strawberry milkshake

a few seconds later he parted, “you’re my favorite by the way.”

you looked at him, “favorite what?” your smile was present.

“favorite everything. coworker, person, partner…?” he questioned

“partner.” you reassured your smile never faltering with him.

the kits making sure Naruto has a good birthday for the first time tho

When Naruto's first birthday post the team coming together rolls around he doesn't really think much of it.

He's not completely ignored or chased off on his birthday anymore and there are a few people who wish him well and Iruka even gives him a cake but it's just ,,,

The day has never been about him even with the few people he knows care about him and Naruto gets that, understands it, knows that even with the festival the day is more about mourning for the older generations than anything.

And his time outside of the village has gotten him out of the habit of looking for anything else from anyone else too.

So he figures he'll do what he'd done during his years on the road, summon a fox or two, maybe even a toad now that he's back in Konoha, and do some training.

It's late when he gets back to his apartment, the festival is still in full swing and Naruto knows that there will be fireworks soon. So he'll do what he used to do as a kid, make his way onto the roof of the building and watch them from a distance.

Only when he lands on his balcony he pauses.

There's someone in his apartment.

Three familiar little someones actually.

Naruto huffs out a small laugh, pulls the balcony door open, and steps inside.

He feels himself melt just a bit at the sight that greets him.

His kits are all cuddled together on his bed, limbs thrown over each other, still in their festival kimonos and all of them sound asleep.

But what really gets him is the fact that his apartment has been decorated.

There are streamers and a half dozen very obviously stolen festival lanterns strewn all over the place. There are prizes from the festival stall games he was never allowed to play piled on top of his kotatsu, including three separate goldfish, all of them vibrant and oddly colored, in their own little bowls, right below the banner that reads "Happy Birthday Naru-sensei" in an adorable mix of three different handwritings.

And there, in the center of the table itself, is another cake, orange icing only looking a little bit melted from having sat out.

Naruto immediately abandons his previous plans.

Instead, he ghosts through the apartment, grabbing a change of clothes as he slips into his tiny bathroom to clean up.

Once he's done and wrapped in a new loose yukata, he ghosts back out of the bathroom, a clone appearing with barely a thought and moving to scoop the cake up to slide it into the fridge before quietly dispelling.

Naruto slides his way into his bed, eyes crinkling closed at the force of his smile when his kits move for him automatically, bodies separating from each other to move and latch onto him automatically. Heat-seeking little leeches that they all are.

Naruto sighs, nestles his head back into his pillow, and lets his eyes slip closed.

He lays there for the longest time, basking in the warmth of what has so quickly become his family.

When he finally falls asleep his dreams are sweet.

~~~

In the morning the kits are outraged that they slept through him coming back home, upset over having missed his actual birthday and vowing that next year will be different.

They end up having cake for breakfast as Naruto oohs and awws over the various presents and prizes they'd won especially for him at the festival.

He refuses to admit that he tears up a bit at the three actually wrapped presents that were buried underneath everything else.

It ends up being the best birthday of his entire life.
