Character ask: Violetta (La Traviata)

Favorite thing about them: Her selfless nobility of spirit, her unconditional love, and her character arc as she initially seems like a sparkling, cynical party girl, but then reveals her inner vulnerability and her true capacity for feeling and for goodness. On a meta level, there's also the fact that she's a fully humanized, sympathetic sex worker heroine, whose story shames bourgeois morality for its prejudice against the likes of her.

Least favorite thing about them: That she has to suffer so much.

Three things I have in common with them:

*I'm emotionally sensitive.

*I sometimes feel afraid to love and be loved because I'm afraid of being hurt.

*I like camellias (they're always in bloom at my birthday).

Three things I don’t have in common with them:

*I'm not a sex worker.

*I have family still living.

*I don't have tuberculosis.

Favorite line: The full text of "Ah, fors'é lui... Sempre libera."

brOTP: Her maid Annina, Dr. Grenvil, to an extent Flora Bervoix (though that seems to be a shallower friendship), and by the end, Giorgio Germont.

In crossover-land, I might like her to befriend some other "fallen woman" characters who have things in common with her, like Mimí in La Bohéme, both Fantine and Éponine in Les Misérables, or Satine in Moulin Rouge! (although meeting her would be more-or-less like looking in a mirror).

OTP: For what makes her happy, I'll say Alfredo. But it's hard to fully ship her with him after the money scene, much like in Much Ado About Nothing it's hard to ship Hero and Claudio after the wedding scene. Above all, I ship her with health, self-esteem, and happiness.

nOTP: Giorgio Germont or Baron Douphol.

Random Headcanon: Her backstory is the same as that of her real-life inspiration, Marie Duplessis. She was born to a poor family in Normandy; her mother either died or left when she was a child, and her father was an abusive alcoholic who sold her to "benefactors" as soon as she hit puberty. She travelled to Paris at age fifteen and worked as a seamstress at first, but then her beauty was "discovered" by wealthy men, and at age sixteen she became a courtesan. All of this shaped her into the person we meet in Act I, who doesn't dare to love and thinks a life of shallow pleasures is all that's left for her.

Unpopular Opinion: I don't see her as much older than Alfredo, or as nearing the end of her glory days as a courtesan due to age rather than just her illness. The libretto repeatedly describes her as "young," and Marie Duplessis was only twenty-three when she died and was the same age as Alexandre Dumas fils. Part of the real tragedy of her life was that she became a "fallen woman" before she was really a woman at all – why shouldn't the same be true for Violetta? Of course the role should ideally be sung by a soprano at least thirty, since few younger singers can meet the vocal demands, but the same is true for teenage heroines like Gilda in Rigoletto or Madame Butterfly! It says nothing about the character's age.

Song I associate with them:

"Ah, fors'é lui... Sempre libera"

"Addio del passato"

Favorite picture of them:

Maria Callas

Anna Moffo

Teresa Stratas

Aylin Perez

Nadine Sierra

Irina Lungu

A little more about Book of Circus

So I was squinting at the opening images of the Circus anime and thought I saw an alicorn or a winged horse, so I went back and paused it. Instead, it was a griffin. My favorite fantasy creature. That, of course, got me thinking about it. Why is it there? Is it a metaphor about the show? A merging of two things that should be impossible. (Well, Yana Toboso certainly has been repeating that theme throughout, hasn't she?) Nearly all the top circus performers in the show have been given prosthetic limbs, a merging of bodies or forms, if you will. (If you've seen the show, it does make that "merging" idea come out in yet another creepy, creative way.) However, near it is an Egyptian-styled statue. Then I realized, Noah's Arc Circus showed curiosities! Yes, we have Snake, but didn't really see his act. The strongman at the opening is doing fire-breathing, another curiosity act, not necessarily his main one.

The third one appeared to be displaying paintings or photographs of some sort. They look like they have figures in them. Unfortunately, as best as I can make out, the first one could be Baron Kelvin, or a person in a bear head and long jacket holding a basket of flowers. So...images of past performers? Art for sale? Previous/current fliers or posters? Whatever the case, these are in the white and purple striped tent set.

When we see Ciel Phantomhive, he is in one that has another juggler or stage magician with a green colored ball in hand, entertaining a pair of children. They appear to be out with a governess or long-suffering mother. The tent appears green, and indeed they have a green lamp outside similar to the one in front of Undertaker's shop. However, instead of being green flame, it is likely that it is green glass causing the color change. (Does anyone else wonder about that green flame at Undertaker's shop that never gets remarked upon?)

On the wall behind the performer are a pair of framed pieces. The one directly above the performer's head appears strongly to be a set of pinned insects on display. There is a large moth or butterfly on the left, a similar shape above, center, but to the right, the shape shifts, so my guess would be a locust or mantis. The far right is very spread out. That looks more like a crayfish/small lobster, fish, or a humming bird. Quite a range, I know. The "tail" is telling. That drooping shape isn't that common. The thicker body and smaller lumps imply fins or claws. Some fancy goldfish can sport such a tail, but the bodies tend to be more rounded. I'd place my bet on the cast shell of a fancy lobster like a blue lobster, or maybe something similarly bright like a mantis shrimp. Hmm, Homarus gammarus "European lobster" would fit the bill, but be rather common. Still, not everyone would have seen them up close. It might be a Florida crayfish since that would be quite "exotic" and the right size in comparison to the possible Atlas Moth also displayed. Catching some more still frames, there is a series of 3-sided tents with open fronts showing paintings, some implements including a guitar and a coal shovel with a cover (to keep the coal dust down). These could have been innovations on everyday objects or some things brought in from Spain or the Americas.

The second booth has a low glass case with some women ooh-ing over it. That could very well be a mummy they are displaying. Having looked at Victorian England history, they were absolutely disrespectful of Egyptian dead! "Mummy brown" was literally a paint made from mummy corpses. People would grind them up and try to treat ailments like it was tiger gall bladder. There is so much story fodder here. Anyway, there is a strong likelihood that they had one they put on their train as they set up in different locals. So they had that on their train...along with a sewn-together griffin. It makes sense that they would create such a creature much as P.T. Barnum did with the Fiji mermaid. Noah's Arc Circus wasn't as small as it seemed.

It makes some sense, clearly their benefactor, Baron Kelvin, had deep pockets. The lion used could even have been from the circus from earlier years or purchased from another circus when it got too old for it to inspire people. Alternatively Kelvin could have hunted it himself in his early years on a game preserve or just had one sent by a trophy hunter. The eagle(s) may have also been show animals.

There are two in the opening.

The first is part of the griffin. You can see the lion's tail in the frame of the red archway as the "camera" moves from Jumbo to Doll and Wendy and Peter. The second is on Dagger's left as he looks over at Beast who lounges across Betty. This one has its full eagle tail spread, so it is a second bird. Why this one? It could symbolize the desire to be free from the dark servitude the circus players are forced to do. It may also be how Dagger's pride is keeping him from being honest with Beast about how he feels. Alternatively, it could be that the Circus once had a falconer as part of their show who flew a pair of eagles. They had them taxidermied as they birds are expensive, rare, and could still draw a crowd/keep people entertained at the curiosities booths before the main performance.

More evidence that this is a larger circus: They have a carousel/merry-go-round (or roundabout in England or "galloper" by showmen) that has wooden horses in place of real ones. It has 4-5 horses only, but carousel horses were rather expensive as they were hand-crafted. By 1889, they were common at fairs, so having one would boost their credibility. (These details are from Wikipedia on Carousels btw, and a little from Greenfield Village.) On a side note: Apparently in the United Kingdom the horses move clockwise (with the animals facing left), while in N. America and Mainland Europe, they go counterclockwise (the animals facing to the right.)

In front of the carousel is a performer in a white top hat, layers of ruffles around the neck, and 4 stripes down the front of a shirt, likely also ruffles or meant to imitate the pleats of a formal shirt. To their right is another performer wearing a pink bow, black mask, and purple and white stripes on the top with a purple skirt below. The edge of the top has a soft material that looks like purple knitting. They have a black mask and a white or pale pink choker on and appear to be selling balloons...with helium or hydrogen in them. The New York Times reported on the balloon's potential for amusement at popular gatherings in 1873 (according to slate.com). So there was time for rubber balloons to be in popular production by 1889 when Circus takes place. However, they were likely still pretty cutting-edge. Tigers started appearing in circuses around 1831 with the French trainer Henri Martin in Germany. (britannica.com)

Then we have the chandeliers. These are being suspended off a hefty wooden frame inside the big tent. The center one ha the most impressive glass or crystal hanging from it. The others in the background seem to serve more for illumination.

However, the stage lights appear to be gas lights. At the very least they are candles and there are many. Even the main tent had a separate, squared-off entrance, if not multiple such entrances. All of this starts to add a lot of time to set-up, tear-down, and transport. When we look at the clothing of the guests, we see quite a few elegant gowns in various styles with bows and bustles. Likewise, the coifs are done up high and many ladies are sporting hats with some form of decoration, from bands to feathers. The 2 children behind Ciel show the girl wearing a fur-trimmed cape with white gloves and the little boy is sporting a bowtie. Thus, the middle and upper classes were definitely drawn to it. So Noah's Arc Circus was well-funded and likely had at least a month or more in a single location in order to make up for the number of days it took to break it down.

There were separate areas for the top tier performers vs. the lower tier ones. We are mostly introduced to the top-tier tents, but can see hints of the other area outside it. While not as large as Barnum and Bailey at it's height of 1, 100 people, it had to have a good sized number of people to make it work. That means lots of interesting side characters and stories to draw from.

Looking at the frames of people practicing, there are between 15-22. (Is that William in a yellow top, shorts, and leggings in the background?) When "Black" shows off, there are 2 scenes, one of people drawn to watch and the other of people gathering around him. Most of the people are not repeats and there is again about 15-22, and that isn't including the 2-3 Italian-style clowns that show up. So Noah's Arc Circus is probably around 100-300 people, I would guess. What's your guess?

For @Shinigami-Mistress (My response to Shinigami-Mistress' lovely art piece was to write a long blog post. Sorry it isn't about Grelle, but hopefully it will give you some new ideas, too.)

@robotzebra​ submitted: Time for some flappy friends.

First up is the glowy friend from a few posts ago. This time with a friend. I recently learned that they are common palmflys. Fun fact: In some sub-species the female will be orange and presumably mimic members of the genus Danaus. While in others both sexes are mimicking Euploea with dark color and blue spots. Genetic studies indicate that this has evolved independently multiple times. These two belong to a monomorphic population I believe.

A cute litte friend, some kind of skipper I presume.

What could this one be hiding?

Tada!

This one seems to be Hypolimnas anomala. And they also seem to enjoy hanging out in the purple hanging flowers.

This Tanaecia iapis (Horsfields baron) has found a nice spot of sunlight, not an easy thing to do under the thick canopy. The bright sunlight has unfortunately drowned out the nice baby blue of their wings though.

Next time: more lepidopterans. This time in the form of moths.

Ahhhh flappy friends are some of the best friends! Can’t wait for the moths, those are my fav. These pals though…………listen they are all good but can I just

Skippers are SO dang precious I can’t handle it emotionally. Thank you for all these friends and the facts along with them!

Butterfly Reign chapter 17 snippet

The chapter is in progress and should be up closer to the end of the week.

***

By the time Tommy tumbles into his chambers, his knees threaten to give out under him. He climbs into an armchair and all but sinks into it. The servants disappear in a matter of seconds, and Tommy wonders whether it’s the command he mutters or they were scared off by the blank expression on his face. In the reign of silence, he can finally let the thoughts rush in, and the very first thing that comes to his mind is, 'what the fuck, Quackity?'

Last time Tommy had spoken to the baron, he was fourteen years old. Quackity was a great advisor and a helping hand, and Tommy kept him around for over a year at that point. First, because he needed a teacher, and after that it was common history sealing them together. Tommy owed Quackity more than just a few pieces of advice: those few months that he had to step up in the Emperor’s place, he survived only with Quackity’s help. He was getting back on his feet, building himself up again- and then Wilbur showed up and ruined it all in a day.

To think that Tommy was angry back then, had tried to express his frustration- it’s a thought full of bitter amusement. If he could have gone back to that day and look his younger self in the eyes, he would grip his shoulders and whisper, in the softest way possible, ‘Believe me, it’s going to get so much worse.’

Against the Grain

Pairing: Baron Zemo x Fem!Reader

Summary: Reader is an old friend of Zemo’s and meets him (along with Bucky and Sam) at his garage. While getting ready to go to Madripoor, reader helps give Zemo a shave.

Word Count: 867 (I’m rusty lol)

Warnings: slight angst, implied nudity but barely

A/N: Slight SPOILERS ahead of you haven’t watched the series yet :)

pt ii, pt iii

XXXXXXX

You made your way to the garage and leaned against one of the sleek cars meticulously parked. You could barely hide the butterflies in your stomach as you heard footsteps approaching. The fluorescent lights were switched on, which heightened your excitement.

“So our first move is grand theft auto?”

Zemo’s voice followed, “These are mine. Collected by family over the generations.” He stopped at one cars and opened the trunk to reveal guns to the two men with him. You found it amusing how these highly skilled soldiers didn’t even sense you were around. You let out a small hum before stepping into their line of sight.

“The yellow one has always been my favorite though, Helmut.”

The two men with the baron got defensive, but Zemo raised his hand gently.

“It’s alright... I asked her to come.” He walked towards you and kissed your cheek, “Hello there, schatz.”

“Baron.” You whispered gently, caressing his stubbled chin. He turned his head back to the men with him.

“I’m sure you know these two.”

“Yes, the Falcon... and who used to be the Winter Soldier, yes?”

“Sam and James if you don’t mind.” The Falcon, Sam, insisted, “And you are?”

“An old friend, Y/n L/n. Sergeant Barnes wasn’t my only visitor.”

“My family owned some land in Sokovia before it was... uprooted.” You smiled slyly. They continued their talk about super soldiers and the Avengers as you waited. Zemo grabbed some clothes out of the yellow car and sighed.

“If you’ll excuse me, I’d like to freshen up before we see Selby. Liebe?” He turned to you, “Some company?”

“Of course.” You whispered and followed him out of the garage.

You leaned against the doorway as he dried his hair.

“So... why are you helping the Americans?”

“We have a common goal...”

“As did most those who fought in World War 2...”

“Do not worry, schatz. It won’t be like last time.”

You sighed and took a place next to him as he looked in the mirror, “Last time... wouldn’t have happened if I had gotten back in time...”

“Y/n-”

You shushed him and placed a hand on his face, “When I saw it in the sky... from my jet... I couldn’t believe it...”

“It’s alright. It has passed.” He murmured, turning his attention back to the sink where the water had filled it. A sharp shaving razor laid nicely on a leather strip and a small tub of shaving cream resided next to it. A small smile reached your lips.

“May I?”

He glanced at you for a moment before nodding. As you grabbed the shaving cream and brush, he leaned against the counter. He couldn’t keep his eyes off of you as you dabbed the brush in the cream. It then made contact with his skin and you applied the cream gently. You could feel his eyes bore into you while your focus was on his stubble, trying not to miss any spots while covering it with the shaving cream. Once you were satisfied with the layer of cream you brushed on, the container and brush were back on the counter. You reached for the blade, pressing your chest gently against Zemo as your arm made its way behind him. By instinct, his hands found their place on your waist and his breathing was shallow as your bodies made contact.

“Would you like me to stop, Helmut?” You murmured, looking into his eyes.

“Keep going.” He ordered lowly.

You nodded and glanced at the sharp blade, seeing the reflection of his dark eyes. You then placed your free hand on his shoulder and found a comfortable position. He noticed your hesitation as you looked at the covered part of his face.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing. It’s been a bit is all…”

“I trust you.” He murmured, caressing your cheek endearingly.

This small act encouraged you to keep going and the blade made contact with his skin. You were careful and light with your movements, but you knew you had to be quick. Who knew how much time they had to stop those super soldiers? As you shaved him, your breaths were in sync. Zemo’s hands never left your waist during the whole process. You didn’t realize how intimate this felt. There was no denying that you had feelings for Zemo ever since you first met him, but then he married his viscountess wife. You didn’t hate her at all though. The both of them fit each other so well, and their son was the perfect combination of the two. You were glad to have stayed in touch with him after all these years. Zemo was the closest thing you had to home and you hoped Zemo felt the same in some way. After finishing, you washed off the blade in the sink, then drained it. Zemo wiped the rest off with his towel before looking at you in the mirror

“You alright, Y/n?”

You look at his reflection before nodding.

“Of course, I’m going to check if Oeznik is waiting with the jet.”

You made your way out of the bathroom quickly, leaving Zemo in a state of confusion

I AM taking requests pls look at my pinned post hehe

[demonic-ungaikyo-dragon]

In topic of crimson court, may i present some ideas?:

1. Any type of bloodsucker can be any bug example: moth esquire, bee courtesan, beetle chevalier. (Mosquitos are most common tho)

2. Did you know there are male concubines called cicisbeo (chevalier servant)? Aka they are basically knights who accompany ladies to parties and etc with the consent of the ladies's husbands. There are also gigolos who are more akin to an actual cortesan (they can preform sex acts). New enemy types maybe?

3. Nobles who get bored and actually join the hamlet cause they want to see more stuff other than the courtyard (ps there ARE playable bloodsucker mods. There is even a viscount and baron playable mod)

4. Kinda like the last one but, nobles who arebt that much of a holes and they join the hamlet out of spite to the other nobles. They are still jerks yes, but atleast they are chaotic good.

5. Character idea: a courtesan that learned how to use rapiers and kicks everyone's ass, gaining respect.

6. Another character idea: a butterfly count who is one of the few nobles who grew bored of the bloodsuckers and joined the hamlet. He can use the scales of his butterfly wings to cause various effects on foes and fly around with rapuer in hand.

Familiars

A Familiar is a Goblin placed in the services of a Witch as an aid in their magical practices by whomever it is they worship. Whether it be Satan, any of the old Gods, or in the case of Emily and her family as well as Royce’s mother, the triple Goddess Hecate. They can take on the appearance of an animal, usually meant to represent the soul and personality of the Witch they are bound to, but they can shapeshift if the need arises. It can be noted that insect Familiars can duplicate. According to Marie, who unlike the Family she serves, worships Baron Samedi, the Familiar chooses their master, not the other way around. The appearance of a Familiar is dependent upon the deity they worship. For those born to Worshipers of Hecate, she gifts each new Witch with their Familiars in the days following their birth. As was the case with Emily’s Purple Monarch Butterfly, Pann and Emilia’s Golden Knee Tarantula, Enzo. As servants, they are also an inexhaustible source of blood as they resurrect after each death. According to Marie, Witches often name their Familiars, but some Familiars name themselves. Familiars protect their Witches from from harm and will often act in their defense without being ordered to do so. Familiars are bound to their Witches, so when their Master dies, they die with them from the agony of losing their masters. It has been noted in every Witch book that a Familiar is neither good nor evil, but a product of their Witches nature. 

Physiology 

In their original forms, Goblins are long, black, clawed humanoid entities capable of human speech before shifting into animal or insect form. While they are physically constrained by their animal form, they can instantly shift back to their original black forms which possess immense strength and power. This is often to protect their Witch from harm or attack. 

* Witches who serve the devil are given demon familiars as opposed to goblins

*It can also be noted that Familiars are often the opposite gender of their master. 

A  Familiar in it’s natural form

Known Familiars

Pann

Emily’s Familiar who can multiply to fulfill whatever spell Emily wishes. Pann has a strong bond with Emily and is almost never away from his Witch. Not since he appeared and took shape at her side. He takes the form of a Purple Monarch Butterfly. 

Enzo

Emilia’s Familiar who took the form of a Golden Knee Tarantula which definitely fits Emilia’s aggressive personality. Enzo is constantly tucked into Emilia’s bag or perched on her shoulder. 

Asher

Cassandra’s Familiar who took the form of a beautiful Raven. While he often aided his Master in spells, he also was utilized as a Spy, keeping an eye on the town as well as his Master’s Daughters

Caleb

Sarah Clayton’s Familiar who takes the form of a White Rat.

Caleb was best at hiding. He was so small that keeping an eye on Royce was easy. And he did so frequently.

Lucian

Marie Etienne’s Familiar who takes the form of a common toad.

It is told that the Baron would speak to Marie through her familiar and that the creature could see all worlds, including the ones in between.

Cecelia

Royce’s Familiar who takes the form of a Weasel. While Royce did not actively practice magic before he and Emily began dating, he was still gifted a Familiar by the triple Goddess. Weasel’s are quiet creatures but can also be aggressive when need be. 

Cecilia held a maternal affection for her charge and was scarcely far from his side.

Hatter

Elizabeth Clayton’s Familiar who takes the form of a Rabbit.

It is likely he named himself this due to Elizabeth liking "Alices Adventures in Wonderland". It was her favorite book, and she enjoyed having it read to her.

Since Hatter is a familiar, he has an extensive memory and he would recite the book for her every night.

Hatter could also be overprotective as seen when he morphed into his goblin form and attacked Enzo whom had been crawling along Elizabeth's arm, poised to strike.

Butterfly AU. OMG😂. Harry just waltzing into the Slytherin Common Room like he owns the place, (“I’m an official tutor of the Hogwarts Teaching & Learning Center, Tom”) & sometimes he isn’t there to even tutor-he’s just THERE. (Bloody Baron gave him the password because they’re cool). The other Houses were a bit surprised at first but have gotten used to eccentric Evans & the other tutors showing up in their Common Rooms. Tom, on the other hand, looks fully ready to strangle Evans

Harry: It’s called the TLC Club :D :D

Tom: ...

Harry: get it? TLC? Tender, loving -

Tom:  Confrin -

Slytherin: Tom NO

🌎 CULTURAL DIFFERENCES 🌍

Prompt: Y/N and Baron decide to take a big step in their relationship and moving in together. Everything seems to go pretty smoothly for them, until they bump into some little (and sometimes fun) cultural differences.

Word count: Long-ish

Pairing: Baron Corbin x Reader

Warnings: Apart from some cultural beliefs and cursing, nothing really.

Notes: I wanted to go smooth with my first fic with this giant teddy bear as a character. This little story is all based on my own country cultural beliefs. I’ve heard all of this ever since I was a little girl ok? None of this was made up! It’s written in both Y/N’s and Baron’s POV. Each scene is isolated, they do not complete each other. Y’all know the drill loves,sorry for misspellings,english isn’t my first language (bla bla bla),check out my other stories if you’d like to(it would make your girl here very happy 😊) and if you’re comfortable with it,please let me know what you think? Some feedback is always welcomed and appreciated ❤️You can check out my other stories typing ‘masochist writes’ on the search bar on my page and my newest story as a fixed post.Okay,now let’s get to the fun part,shall we? Hope you’ll enjoy 😉

“Y/N, can you please explain to me why in the hell do you need all of this?” He lifts up my perfectly organized (and not so small) jewelry box

“Babe, please put that down. You’ll take all of my stuff out of order” I say as I’m finishing doing my hair

He places the box down and start to dig through the drawers.

“Jesus, babe! Did you robbed a bank to buy all of these?” He’s incredibly amused by the amount of different shapes and sizes pieces.

“Don’t let your eyes fool ya, Corbin” I laugh “Only the ones on the first drawer to the left are real”

He takes a silver thick chain with small discreet rhinestones on it and stares at the piece of jewelry.

“Oh, those are nice” I say “You can borrow ‘em if you’d like”

He looks at me “I would prefer to borrow these instead” He lifted up a golden bracelet with colorful rhinestones shaped as butterflies “What do you think? Should I wear these to work? Do you think they’ll match my outfit?” He playfully places the bracelet on top of his t-shirt, obviously mocking me, since I do the same thing when I ask his opinion.

“Shut up Corbin!” I laughed

“Why do you need so much bracelets, earrings, hoops, necklaces and rings?” He says

I look at him defiantly “Why do you need so many watches, cigars, vintage lighters and expensive cars?” I crook one eyebrow at him

“Touché, princess. My excuse is because I can, yours?” He playfully smirks

“Because that’s who I am! I grew up surrounded by women full of jewelry, lipstick and these” I show him my long nails as I stick my tongue out just like a child would

“I like those” He pointed at my nails “They feel real good when you pair them up with sweet moans begging me to go harder” He gives me one of his cocky smirks

“You’re so full of yourself” I defeatedly say

.....................…..............................................

“Hey baby girl, what you’re up to? WOW something smells really good in here”

“Oh hi” I look at Baron as he entered the kitchen “Thanks! I’m making dinner” I smile

“Oh yeah?!” He lifts a lid from one of the saucepans “What you’re cooking?”

“Nothing crazy, just a simple regular dinner. White rice, beans, some meat with potato and carrots, broccoli and cauliflower for salad. Plus milk pudding for desert, the same one my grandma always made”

“And that’s your idea of ‘simple dinner’?” He asks amused

“It is simple”

“When you said simple I thought you‘ve meant, meat and some bread or something like that” He vaguely said

“That’s like a snack, not proper dinner Baron”.

“It’s pretty common to have that for dinner you know”

I look at him in disbelief “If I ever suggested that as a dinner option back in my family’s house I would’ve been told to shut up and eat my goddamn vegetables! A proper meal isn’t a proper meal if it doesn’t have rice and beans.”

He laughs “Do you need me to get the beans for you?”

“Do you have it?” I gasp in shock

“Of course” He goes and opens one of the upper kitchen cabinets taking out a can of beans “Here” He hand it to me

My eyes widened “Please don’t tell me you eat this crap!” As I shake the can in front of his face

“What’s wrong with it?” He asks offended

“Everything Baron! If it comes in a can is not good for you! I’m talking about cooking dried beans, real beans. Not this pathetic excuse for a bean”.

“They taste the same Y/N”

“Have you ever eaten freshly cooked beans?” I ask defiantly

“No, but-“

“Then you have no right of opinion on this debate!” I huffed and he rolled his eyes

......................................................................

“What in the actual fuck?” I say as I got up from the bed.

I followed the very loud music coming from downstairs in the living room to find Y/N in some skimpy clothes, barefoot with her hair up in a bun singing and dancing to whatever rhythm that was. I go to the radio and turn the music down. Making her look behind.

“Oh you’re awake” She smiles fondly

“How could I not be with this deafening loud music? What are you doing?”

“It’s Saturday babe” She says as if that was supposed to mean something

“Yeah I know! It’s also fucking 8 a.m. and my day off! I would like to still be asleep!” I say angrily

“But it’s Saturday” She says again

“And what’s that suppose to mean Y/N?”

“Saturday is the official house cleaning day, love” She speaks slowly as if she was talking to a child “Would you like to take the bedrooms and bathrooms or the living and dining room plus the kitchen?” She smiled

“Are you fucking kidding me Y/N? I would like to sleep! Sleep until fucking noon damn it! Official house cleaning day my ass” I scream as I make my way back to the bedroom slamming the door.

......................................................................

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING BARON?” She yelled

“Jesus fuck, you scared me! I’m cleaning as you can see” I say as I grab another piece of paper towel to clean the oven

“With paper towels?! Do you plan to bankrupt us and kill the environment too?”

“And what am I supposed to use to clean it?” I ask impatiently

She reaches one of the lower drawers and take a piece of one of her old shirts from it and hand it to me.

I just stare at her confused. She sighs before saying

“You use this to clean it, after you’re done you’ll wash it, put down to dry and once is dried you’ll store it back in the drawer again for future cleaning uses! That’ll save money and prevent more trees to get killed so you can clean your oven! Do I have to teach you everything babe?” She throws her hands in the air “Unbelievable” As she lefts me with a puzzled look on my face.

......................................................................

“Baron love, have you seen my purse?”

“Oh yeah, I’ve put it in there” He points to his side of the bed as he continues with his eyes glued to his video game.

“Ok, than- Baron!” I run towards my purse, snatching it quickly from the floor “Why did you put my purse on the floor?”

“Baby, where was I suppose to put it?”

“Not on the floor! I would like to keep my money you know?!” I huffed

“And what does your purse being on the floor has to do with you keeping your money?”

“EVERYTHING! You should know that placing your purse or wallet on the floor makes your money vanish”

“WHAT? Y/N, I’m sorry but that makes zero sense princess!”

“Shut up Corbin, you know nothing!”

......................................................................

“Baron, can you get the broom for me please?” I ask as he passed by me

“Yeah, sure”

He comes back with the broom on his hand “Here, I’ll help you” As he swiped the floor

“Thank you, my love”

A few minutes after I felt the biggest fear of my life becoming true

“Oh, sorry kitten...Are you ok?”

“Baron” I whisper “Please tell me that I’m getting delusional and you didn’t swipe my feet just now”

“Yeah I did, but-“ I raised my hand for him to stop talking

“Did I do something wrong?” He asks

“Yes you did. In fact, I’m never gonna get married now thanks to you!”

“What?” He chuckled “Please don’t tell me that this is one more of your crazy superstitions?” He’s full on laughing now

“Stop laughing dumb ass! It’s not funny and you should respect those things you know?!” I say annoyed

“Whatever you say babe” He dries his tears of laughter

......................................................................

“For God’s sake what is this awful smell?” I ask to myself as I entered the living room door “Y/N?”

She didn’t answer me. I decided to go on a hunt for my own woman inside my house, when I heard some mumbling

“Y/N, what are you doing?”

“Shhhh Baron, don’t interrupt me!”

“What on earth is this cursed smell?” I ask ignoring her

“It’s sage and some herbs” She whispers

“I’ve had a bad dream, so this will keep all of the bad juju out of here!” She says

“You know that will-“ As soon as I was about to remind her of the smoke alarm the little prick showed himself

“Oh fuck! I forgot about that, damn it! Shut up you evil little thing!” She says as she steps on the couch and wave her hands at it “Baron! Don’t just stand there, do something boy! Go get me a piece of cloth of something like that!” As she frantically waves her hands to prevent the smoke from going to the alarm

......................................................................

“Good morning kitten” I lean down to peck her lips

“Good morning handsome” She smiles “Coffee?”

“Yes, please”

She fills one mug with black coffee and give it to me

“Thanks baby” I take a gulp “You know, I’ve had this crazy dream last night”

“Oh yeah? About what, love?”

“There was this monkey and a deer. I was chasing them or something, I don’t know it was just so weird” I look at Y/N to find her typing ferociously on her phone

“Is everything ok, kitten?”

“Sure babe! I’m just texting my sister to mark me some numbers at the loteria”

“Why?”

“Because of your dream Baron! The monkey and the deer. They have a number at the loteria so who knows? Maybe we’ll gain some money at it to save it up?”

“But we don’t need money” I look at her almost laughing

“Still” She raises her eyebrows

......................................................................

“Yeah?” I scream

*Is she really gonna make me go down there?* I sighed

“Yeah baby girl?” I ask as I open the door

“What?” She asks confused

“What do you want babe? You were calling me” I say

“No I wasn’t!”

“Yes you were Y/N, I was in the bedroom unpacking and I heard you clearly call for me two times”

“Baron, I swear on my mother’s life I did not called for you” She whispers, all the blood drained out from her face

“Oh, then I guess I misheard it”

“When you heard someone call for you, did you answered out loud?” She asks with fear in her eyes

“Well yeah! I thought you were the one who was calling me in the first place!”

She stood up from her office chair grabbing a small glass bottle with some water in it. She toss some of the water on her then on me

“What the fuck babe? What’s that?” I ask slightly angry

“Holy water! You heard something call for you with my voice, and you answered! Babe that is a bad omen, that means something evil is walking around here...Oh my God” She gasps in shock “Xander! We gotta bless him with some holy water too, we gotta protect him Baron! Oh no my poor baby Xander” She runs through the the hallway screaming for Xander.

Soon after she returns with Xander by her side. “He’s good now, thank God!” She reaches for her desk’s drawer again and grabbed a spray bottle “C’mon Baron, we’ve got to spray holy water in all of the doors and windows so it will scare away whatever that thing that called for you was” She lives her office again with the spray bottle in hand and a faithful Xander by her side.

God, why on earth did I decided to move in with that woman? She drives me crazy! But I would be lying if I said she wasn’t fun...
