AkkTheo celebrating a romantic Christmas in Paris~

Prior to his time in France, Akk knew that Christmas was a largely commercial holiday in many countries. Sure it had many more connotations in those countries; a time of being together with family and friends, gathering to share warmth and light in the cold dark, and most importantly the sharing of kindness and generosity. But in Thailand where the bulk of individuals were Buddhist and there was never much of anything in the way of a winter wonderland, the most Akk looked forward to were the Christmas lights in the mall along with cotton fluff snow and maybe a present if his other friends were in the mood to exchange.

So upon moving to Paris for his program and staying with Theo, Akk had a feeling Theo would be more excited for Christmas. The other boy had spent many of his formative years in France, living with a different culture, so naturally, his affinity for the winter holiday would be different than Akk's.

Akk did not anticipate the degree to which he would be correct.

Winter came swiftly upon the European city and Theo was already prepared with piles of sweaters, warm coats, scarves, hats, and gloves. All of which were shared with Akk, who had come completely unprepared for the cold.

"I thought we were going back to Thailand for the winter," Akk groused as he huddled down into his borrowed scarf which smelled like Theo's expensive cologne.

"We'll go back for the new year," Theo promised as he reached for Akk's gloved hand which was further stuffed into a jacket pocket. "I want you to experience Christmas here with me! We'll get mulled wine, gingerbread cookies, maybe make a croquembouche and decorate it like a Christmas tree..." Theo rambled on and Akk took a mental snapshot of Theo's sparkling eyes against the backdrop of nighttime Paris, awash in the gold and red of Christmas lights. It would have had to be a color print, Akk decided, for only then could the wash of colors in Theo's brown hair be truly appreciated.

As Christmas approached, Akk watched as lights went up in their shared apartment along with a genuine pine tree that Theo bought from a tree lot and had Akk help him drag up the three flights of stairs. The entire apartment was filled with the smell of pine which made Akk sneeze until he acclimated. Boxes of old ornaments from Theo's grandmother were brought out and Theo told Akk the story of each ornament painted by a child Theo.

Their date nights after classes were spent going to shops to see their Christmas displays. Gifts on sale were purchased for family along side cups of warm mulled wine as Theo promised. Akk made a particular attempt to keep his gift secret, waiting for Theo to wander off to the other side of the jewelry shop before purchasing it.

Instead of gingerbread cookies, Theo could only find ginger snaps filled with bourbon cream which Akk found overly sticky and sweet, until he had one with extra bourbon and sprinkled with a hint of nutmeg. Dark chocolate oranges, however, became Akk's favorite holiday treat as opposed to Theo's preference for peppermint bark.

Christmas day itself was spent with a late morning, Akk refused to get out of their warm bed to face the cold morning, but emerged once Theo made coffee. Afternoon lunch was cold sandwiches as they both worked to prepare their private holiday dinner.

Shopping for the smallest turkey possible had still been quite a task and Akk was sure they'd be eating its remains for the next two months. Theo had also insisted on other traditional items like gougeres, roasted carrot soup, gratin dauphinois, and green beans almondine.

"It'll be worth the work," Theo promised as he sliced potatoes on the mandolin. "You'll see."

"I can't even pronounce half these dishes, Theo," Akk said as he mixed choux pastry for the gougeres.

"You don't have to pronounce them. Just eat them with me later."

After all their hard work, Akk had to admit that the small dining table lit with candles and decorated with holly was quite romantic, even with all their dishes piled around it. Theo fed Akk the first bite of everything and Akk begrudgingly admitted that the traditional dinner had been quite good.

Snow began to fall again as Theo and Akk looked out over the Paris skyline, glasses of dessert wine in hand. "So, how was your first Christmas in Paris," Theo asked as he took a sip, his other hand fussing about in one of his cardigan pockets.

"Colder than I expected," Akk replied before thrusting a small jewelry box at Theo. "So here's your reward for making Christmas interesting."

Theo frowned. "That's not the point of Christmas," he said as he took the box. "I- Oh..." Theo's expression softened as he looked at the silver bracelet with a camera charm.

"Just something small," Akk said with as much nonchalance in his voice as he could spare. "I know I already gave you a ring but..."

Theo huffed and finally pulled out what he'd been fussing with in his cardigan pocket. "Then here, this is for you. Something just as small." In the candlelight, Akk realized it was one of the other bracelets from the jewelry store, the one with a book charm instead.

With one hand, Akk gently accepted the bracelet and with his other, he cupped Theo's cheek and pulled him in for a kiss.

In the coming Christmases, regardless of where Theo and Akk were, Akk's photo of their clasped hands with matching bracelets shining in the light was always in the forefront of their decorations.

nothing major but enjoy part of a 2700 word excerpt from what I'm writing because this is the most i've written in a sitting so far

first draft obviously, edits required? yes. but hey. i have been struggling so I'm trying to find what accountability i can. please enjoy this thing that was intended to be one scene and instead spanned about half a typical chapter length. i cut it before it started getting too sad, but also because lol i hit tumblr's post limit

also description? what's that? i have avoided the curse of newbie writers so hard i have transcended description entirely

Eric presented the package with a flourish, a card and a small hinged box that could, and would double as a decorative something.

Christine looked at it. He never usually got her Valentine’s gifts beyond some nice chocolates or something practical they’d both wanted, so the display felt off. He was perfectly aware of this.

She read the card, smiled briefly, and then opened the box. Inside were two large chocolate bars, some sort of small-batch, fair-trade chocolate that had an air of high quality. These two were book themed, judging by the wrappers—one, ginger and nori with dark chocolate; the other, she didn’t see the ingredients, but the wrapper caught her eye. Alice in Wonderland-themed, perhaps a bit stereotypical, but she had always tolerated Eric and her father making reference to it.

That was Eric’s usual Valentine’s Day fare. No, It was the little box that provoked examination. It looked like jewelry, and Eric knew this was an unusual turn. She didn’t wear jewelry besides her wedding ring and the two titanium hoops in her ears, worn because they were easy to remove or put back in and simple enough not to get snagged on anything.

“What’s this?” she said. She was turning it over in her hands and not actually opening it. It didn’t help it had been a repurposed ring box.

“You could open it,” Eric suggested.

Eric sat down next to her on the couch and watched. He was well aware of the unusualness if this particular gift but…he had to do something more than usual, because this year was different from past ones. He’d seen the way she often lapsed into silence and let conversations drift around her, the way she spent too much time hunched over her mother’s old notebooks, or the split-second hesitation as she white-knuckle gripped a box of her mother’s old clothes to go to the Salvation Army.

“You don’t usually get me anything else,” she said, discomfort on her face, “I didn’t get you anything. That’s how we usually do it.”

“It’s not a transaction,” Eric said.

“Look, Christmas was bad enough,” she said, an embarrassed flush creeping up on her face, “This makes it even more lopsided—“

“I said it’s not a transaction,” he repeated, “I’m not keeping score. Please, open it.”

Christine finally fumbled with the box. Inside was a deep purple-blue crystal, unpolished. The bottom still resembled rock, but the top part caught the light, casting bright purple highlights across Christine’s hands. He had thought it a small rock, but it looked larger in her hands. He couldn’t read her expression, but she smiled a sort of half-smile.

“It's a crystal. You have tons of those already. Quartz? No, amethyst. Yeah. You have tons of amethyst already.”

“It’s iolite,” he says, adjusting his glasses, “Mined up near Ghost Lake. I got it from a guy in Grande Prairie.”

“Ghost Lake? Where’s that?”

He made a so-so motion with his hands. “If you’re looking on a map? A bit south, south-west, of Wekweètı̀.”

"You had to pay a guy from Grande Prairie for this when you could've gone up to Ghost Lake yourself?” She smiled wider. This was the a joke. He didn’t think he’d be so relieved at a joke.

"I know you don't like camping," he said with a laugh, "If you don't like it at actual, government-owned campsites, I'm not about to charter a plane to fly you out into the bush.”

She gave a short bark of a laugh. “Well, it’s very pretty, thank you. I think there’s a spot in one of your display cases, next to the tourmaline chunk you got for your birthday—”

“Please don’t call it a ‘chunk’,” he said with a laugh, “That sounds weird.”

She made as if to give the iolite back to him, but he closed her hand around it. She gave him a look—God, too much like her mother and he didn’t even think she realized it—and did that same sort of half-laugh.

“This is your gift,” he said.

“Eric, we both know this is a gift for you with my name on it,” she said, “You said that about the quartz and the amethyst, and that big geode you had to have, and they all wound up in your display case eventually. Go on and put this one in there too.”

He glanced around. She wasn’t wrong. His collection had started out on a spare shelf on one of the bookshelves, before slowly eating away at the remaining space, and then onto a second bookshelf and a decorative shelf in the bedroom. Christine didn’t collect much, but it was limited to a small selection of things at the equally small computer desk. Things like books on aliens and holographic stickers and her latest collection appeared to be her mother’s notebooks, carefully left under the desk, with just enough space for her to tuck her legs underneath. Those were new, and a worrying new acquisition.

Still, she liked purple. Most of the things she had collected, if she’d had a choice, were purple. Every time he saw something purple, he thought of her. Unfortunately, yes, past gifts had made their way into display cases “for safety”, but he was adamant this one wouldn’t.

“No, I mean it. It’s yours.”

“Eric, what am I supposed to do with it?” she said, with a bit of a laugh, “Stick it in my pocket and wind up ruining the washing machine?”

“Well, don’t do that,” he said.

“It’s too big for a necklace,” she said, turning it over in her hands, “I’d sink to the bottom of the lake if I wore that.”

“No it’s not,” he said, a spark coming to mind, “Hey, Shelby’s been making those macrame necklaces lately, I could ask her to put it on a string?”

“Go ahead and ask your sister if you want, she’ll say the exact same thing,” she said, “I…oh come on, don’t look so put out. You know I don’t carry much stuff on me. I forget my purse half the time. I don’t have a lucky rock that I keep in my pocket. I get why you got it, but we both know it’ll wind up in your rock collection sooner or later. Better to put it in there now so it’s safe.”

“I want you to have something to remind you of me, when I’m away.”

“Eric, every rock reminds me of you. It’s not tied to a specific rock. Your whole stupid rock collection is a constant reminder of you when you’re not here,” she said. The ‘stupid’ was said with affection.

“Come on, I know you. You saw a shiny new rock on one of your geologist listservs somewhere and decided you wanted it, but it’s ‘mine’ because it’s purple. Okay, fine. You can put all ‘my’ stuff in a separate case, how’s that? We can put it on the dresser or something.”

“Would you show it off if I did that?”

“Show it off to who? No one comes over.”

“Your dad comes over,” he says, “My family comes over.”

“I’m sure your parents have seen enough purple rocks for a lifetime, but sure, I’ll show it to them if they ask.”

She leaned back against the couch and he followed suit, putting an arm around her shoulder. It wasn’t quite a cuddle.

“You can’t wait for them to ask,” he said, “Because they won’t.”

“I just gotta ambush them as soon as they walk in?”

“Exactly.”

She gave a little amused smile. It wasn’t enough to fill him with joy, but it was a much better streak that he’d seen since Christmas, so

Eric took that as a win.

Elven Medicine

Medicinal Plants

Dimmetines, Hushspurs, Respitillis, Vesperlace - The combination of these 4 night-blooming plants inspired the precious lyrics that banish the echoes of shadowflux. (Created by Flori)

Aethrials, Dreamlilise, Reveriebells, Sweetshades - The combination of these 4 plants allows for nightmares to subside. (Created by Calla.)

Aethrials- Identified by their soft songs and small light-colored petals, it can be used as a weak sedative. It is one of the flowers used in an efflorescence site.

Dimmetines- A small flowering plant that thrives in darkness, the plants tune is commonly described as “earthy.”

Dreamlilies- They are teal in color with ominous, pointed petals. The flowers' pollen is extremely sedative- just touching the pollen is enough to sedate a fully-grown elf. In the Sanctuary they are woven into a lei when used to sedate animals. They were hybridized with other sleep-inducing plants (Aethrials, and Sweetshades) by Calla to create the Reveriebells. (These flowers were also found at efflorescence sites.)

Hushspurs- Flowering vines that can only be found growing in the trunks of trees. Because these plants are only found in the trunks of trees, there is not much known about them.

Panakes Tree- Panakes are a Gnomish plant capable of aiding the healing of any ailment through their blossoms and petals. Panakes trees are created when a Gnome sacrifices themself to create one by turning themselves into a panakes tree. They have colored blossoms that can change color; they are usually pink, purple, or blue hues. The Panakes bears a significant resemblance to a willow tree. (Let it be noted that when sung to by a gnome (Flori) it seems that the tree blooms more vibrantly.

Pures (Purfoliage Palmae) - Pures, are the most common tree in the Lost Cities. They are described to have mammoth trunks, with burnt sienna bark that is braided up it. They have hunter green leaves that are shaped like a fan paintbrush. Their leaves are known to filter out any pollution or imperfections in the air; Due to the high quantity of Pures in Eternalia, the air quality there is the best in the world. There is always one in every house and city. The crisp, cool air it provides is described to smell like cinnamon, chocolate, and sunshine. Every piece of land in the Lost Cities has at least one Pure, to cleanse the air.

Respitillis- These delicate flowers can be found growing in 4 different locations. The are identified by their pointed white petals, and hooked anthers.

Reveriebells- Reveriebells are a special hybrid of flowers that Calla made for Sophie to help her sleep.  Some of the flowers emit sweet scents that can make a person sleepy and cause mild fatigue. The purple flowers smell like gardenias, a hint of vanilla, and something spicy (such as ginger).  They show several layers of fluffy petals that have a slight ombre-effect of dark to light, along with several pointed leaves and a long twisting stem. Many stamens appear at the end of the flower, giving off a slightly lily-esque appearance.

Starglass Flower - The Starglass Flower is used for a variety of purposes. Its nectar is the main ingredient in the production of Somnalene, which is a sedative -like liquid that is used in the form of eye drops.

Sugarbells - Sugarbelles are tiny pink flowers used by physicians to make medicine. Despite the sparkly, pink look of the nectar, these flowers taste terrible. A vial of nectar can heal a patient who has been affected by shadowflux.

Sweetshades - The sleep inducing Sweetshades are identified by their "lacy pink blossoms". They are grown mostly as sleep aids. They grow in marshy wet grounds. Sweetshades were used to create the hybrid plant reveriebells.

Vesperlace - In the daytime, it appears as a wispy vine with leaves of a darker shade that has small clusters of pearl white buds. It is said to only bloom at night, though its night-form is not well known. It is only able to grow in the darkest points of the most silent forests. According to Flori, its melody is like the rhythm of darkness, that is the same pulse as that of the echoes.

Please keep in mind that most of this information can be found on the Kotlc wiki and within the Keeper books themselves.

[birdgenetics]

What I'd name every chicken color allele if I got to choose:

This is just for fun. Some gene names are very apt and some are just plain confusing! Some have good names in some regions and poor names in others.

E/Extended Black: Already perfection. Tells you exactly what you are getting.

E^R/Birchen: This one is pretty good but it implies a birch tree, which people typically picture as black and white while gold birchen (which is closer to wild type than silver birchen.) However, some species of birches can have golden bark so maybe those who picture silver birchen when I say "birchen" need to touch up their botanical skills.

e+/Duckwing: Apparently this name is so attrocious fanciers decided to rarely use it! Not good! "Duckwing" is in reference to the wing bay (secondary feathers) on roosters bearing some resemblance to the colored speculum (secondary feathers) on ducks. However, this is not a good distinction as Wheaten and Partridge roosters have identical wing colorations to duckwing. Also, why mention ducks when we are talking about chickens? The relation is tenuous. We could define it based on the down color. How about "Chipmunk"? The resemblance to actual chipmunks is uncanny.

e^Wh Wheaten: I could not improve upon this perfection. Not only does it perfectly match the hens, it matches the chicks, too! They are like the golden wheat.

e^b Partridge: Partridge was named after the down color. And it was perfect. They match Hungarian partridge chicks perfectly. Unfortunately, partridge has been ruined by confusion. Too many people have used "partridge" to describe duckwing (in Europe partridge is duckwing and "Asian Partridge" is partridge.) Plus "partridge" is used to describe concentric lacing which isn't the same as just the partridge gene. I propose "Extended Brown." It is called e^b, not e^p. Plus "Extended Brown" exists in quail and it bears many similarities.

Co/Columbian: Sure why not? No confusing this gene. Lots of people misspell it though. (Columbian, not Colombian.)

Db/Darkbrown/Ginger: Ginger, which is what you call a duckwing bird with the ginger gene, describes the effect perfectly. Unfortunately, Dark Brown, not so much. If the abbreviation was just Gi, it would be so much better.

Pg/Pattern Gene: Yes.

Ml/Melanotic: Melanotic is a melanizer? Novel concept!

Cha/Charcoal: Charcoal is a decent descriptor. But I think "Moorhead" is even better.

Mh/Mahogany: Mahogany is a red enhancer. Mahogany is more of a brown wood. I think "Maroon" is a better descriptor but "Mahogany" sounds more natural so I'll allow it.

Di/Dilute: What does it dilute, exactly? Please be more specific. Oh? It dilutes gold and inhibits black a little? Why not call it "Peach" or something, goodness gracious.

ig/Cream: I've also heard it called "Inhibitor of Gold" but I'll stick to cream, thank you.

Cb/Cb/Cream blond/champagne blond: Perhaps I've hallucinated it but I thought this was called champagne blond, not cream blond. Champagne blond is a good descriptor but there can't be two "creams" so that has got to go.

Si/Silver: As opposed to gold. I like it!

B/Barred: Perfect.

choc/Chocolate: Chocolate is the perfect description, however, I must ask, why is the abreviation so long? "choc"? Really?

I/Dominant White: I mean, its more like codominant white, or something. And it only turns the black white, usually. Maybe "Pyle?"

i^d/Dun: Already perfect, unfortunately people keep calling it "chocolate."

Bl/Blue: I know I've complained about the way "blue" often removes the blue sheen, but I actually do consider it a good description of how the pigment is distributed, and it is used in many species of poultry in the same way.

mo/Mottled: Perfect.

c/Recessive White: Probably the best name anyone has ever concieved.

Lav/Lavender: I think "lavender" is just fine but it seems the APA finds it too flowery and insists on calling it "self blue" even though it is not blue and does a lot more than change the eumelanin to blue. Perhpas taking the approach of calling it "pearl-grey" like continental Europe will have the same effect, but I think it's worth a shot. I guess abbreviating it to "pearl" might help it further, considering how much we Americans like our brevity.

An Exploration Of The Bold Fusion Of Dark Chocolate And Spicy Treats

The fusion of dark chocolate and spice creates a culinary adventure that excites the taste buds with a daring combination of deep, bittersweet cocoa and fiery heat. This pairing, often referred to as "dark chocolate spicy," is a modern twist on ancient traditions, marrying the antioxidant-rich properties of dark chocolate with the bold flavors of various spices. This blog explores the history, health benefits, popular spice pairings, and ways to enjoy this bold treat.

Historical Roots of Spicy Chocolate

The blend of chocolate and spice dates back thousands of years to ancient Mesoamerica, where civilizations like the Aztecs and Mayans prepared xocolatl, a spicy chocolate drink. Originally, this beverage was made from ground cocoa beans mixed with spices like chili and was consumed for its stimulant properties and supposed medicinal benefits. Today, the tradition of spicy chocolate continues but has evolved into a more refined delicacy that can be enjoyed in solid forms like bars, truffles, and barks.

Health Benefits of Dark Chocolate Spicy Creations

Combining dark chocolate with spice not only tantalizes the palate but also offers notable health benefits:

Rich in Antioxidants: Dark chocolate is laden with antioxidants, such as flavonoids, which are known for their role in promoting heart health and reducing inflammation.

Metabolism Boosting: Spices, particularly chili, contain capsaicin, which has metabolism-boosting properties. Capsaicin can increase the amount of heat your body produces, making you burn more calories per day.

Mood Enhancing: Chocolate is famous for its ability to boost mood by increasing serotonin and endorphin levels in the brain. The added spices can amplify these effects, providing a warming sensation 

that enhances overall satisfaction.

Popular Spices in Dark Chocolate Spicy Treats

Several spices pair exceptionally well with the rich flavor of dark chocolate:

Chili: The most popular choice, chili peppers like cayenne or chipotle add a significant heat that highlights the chocolate's deep flavors.

Cinnamon: Often used for a subtle warmth, cinnamon complements the natural sweetness of the chocolate.

Ginger: Adds a sharp, spicy burst that contrasts with the smoothness of dark chocolate.

Black Pepper: Introduces a surprisingly pleasant bite that pairs well with dark chocolate.

Making Your Own Dark Chocolate Spicy Treats

Creating your own dark chocolate spicy treats at home is both fun and straightforward. Here’s a basic recipe to get you started:

Ingredients:

200 grams of high-quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)

1 teaspoon of ground chili pepper (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon (optional)

A pinch of fine sea salt

Preparation:

Gently melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Once fully melted, stir in the chili pepper, cinnamon, and sea salt until well combined.

Pour the chocolate mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spreading it out to about 1/4 inch thickness.

Allow the chocolate to cool and set at room temperature, or place in the refrigerator to harden quicker.

Once set, break into pieces or cut into desired shapes.

Serving and Pairing Suggestions

Dark chocolate spicy treats can be savored on their own or used to add a zesty twist to various dishes. Consider the following ideas:

Dessert Toppings: Sprinkle pieces of your spicy chocolate creation over ice cream or mixed into yogurt.

Baking Ingredient: Use chopped spicy chocolate in cookies or brownies for an added kick.

Beverage Enhancer: Melt a piece into your coffee for a spicy mocha or into hot milk for a warming nighttime drink.

Conclusion

The daring combination of dark chocolate with spicy elements offers a sensory experience that is both unique and indulgent. Perfect for those who love a bit of heat with their sweets, dark chocolate spicy treats are not just delicious; they're a celebration of flavor and history. Whether you're experimenting at home or enjoying pre-made varieties, this bold treat is sure to bring a little extra zest to your chocolate indulgences.

Patches' Nightmare, part 4

We set up our Wild Hooves' Popsicle and Ice Cream Sandwich stand after a week and a half of creating business plans, marketing, and coming up with 250+ popsicle/ice cream/burger/hot dog/sandwich recipes.

We also went thousands of years into the future by jumping into the portal at the bottom of the mountain.

In the midst of time travel, let's just say we saw Scooby Doo in 3D, and he was uglier and healthier than ever before. But he was a great marketer, so he was now part of the think tank behind Wild Hooves' Sandwich Shoppe.

King Dark Chocolate Blueberry Gummy Bear recommended that we don't advertise all of our flavors and convince people to come with only our most delicious flavors. He didn't want other people stealing our ideas for a popsicle stand/sandwich shop.

Scooby Doo then suggested a graham cracker gingerbread ice cream sicle as our marketing flavor. He then giggled his trademark giggle.

King White Chocolate Strawberry Gummy Bear suggested that we have a Scooby Doo flavor that is gluten-free.

Jaybird then materialized in the middle of the drawing board and came up with Gluten-free Scooby Doo Snack flavor - ginger buckwheat, skim milk ice cream flavor with stevia.

King Napoleon-covered Cherry Gummy Bear then suggested macadamia nut flavored popsicles.

I suggested they make oatmeal raisin-flavored popsicles.

"Wouldn't that just be oatmeal mixed in with grape flavor?" the stankass wild wolf asked.

Patches growled at him.

"I'M JUST SAYING!" the stankass wild wolf shouted.

"For marketing purposes, it should be oatmeal raisin cremesicles," Scooby Doo said in his goofy ass voice.

Patches started to growl.

"Patches, please! And yes, that is the more marketable way to sell grape popsicles with oatmeal on them," Lindsay said.

"IS IT GRAPE OATMEAL or OATMEAL RAISIN CREMESICLE?!" Jaybird asked in alarm.

"Yes," I said.

Jaybird's head exploded.

"That's the second head explosion in the last epoch," King White Chocolate Strawberry Gummy Bear pointed out.

"Shucks! I guess we're doing both," Scooby Doo said in his goofy ass voice.

"Carrington's head exploded back in 723 A.D. It would have exploded again hearing those two flavors being sold at the same popsicle stand. Fuck it. Let's do it!" Nugget said.

"Yep," the stankass wild wolf said.

Patches growled.

"You never know! Some people might like grapes in their oatmeal!" Cody exclaimed.

King Milk Chocolate Peach Gummy Bear burst out in laughter.

"Even the preposterous makes sense this year," Lindsay said with a smile. "Thank God Nugget contributed to the group discussion for once."

"We have to consider all diets," Chocolat said.

"Yes we do. Thank you, Lindsay. You are making progress with me. I appreciate it," Nugget said with a small bark.

Patches growled in song.

"Yes. It's becoming a headache," Fresa said as she rubbed her head.

She was giving ME a headache.

"Okay! Stay focused. We need flavors," King Dark Chocolate Blueberry Gummy Bear said.

"Mixed Berry," I said.

"No. Fuck adding raspberry and blackberry. Those are separate," King Dark Chocolate Blueberry Gummy Bear said.

"How about Very Berry - blueberry, strawberry, grape, cranberry, gooseberry and Blackabee Berry - blackberry, cranberry, currant, and raspberry?" I countered.

"We'll do that," King Napoleon-covered Cherry Gummy Bear said with a nod.

Patches sang in approval.

"Are 24 popsicle flavors good enough for this stand? I mean, it's a bitch to get good flavors," I said.

"Yes!" King White Chocolate Strawberry Gummy Bear answered.

"It's exciting!" King Milk Chocolate Peach Gummy Bear exclaimed.

"They have spoken," Kings Dark Chocolate Blueberry and Napoleon-covered Cherry Gummy Bears said in unison.

"Thus the Wild Hooves Popsicle Stand With Sandwiches has been borne!" Cody announced with a bark.

---------------------------------------------------------

Patches meowed loudly and yawned as she awakened in February 2024. Then she looked at Lindsay calmly and wondered in her head what the hell just happened in that nightmare.

Cookie Cutter Boyfriends

The bakery wasn't new to the area but Jaskier was constantly surprised by the variety of people who came and went. There were a couple of regulars but fewer than he'd anticipated. Some people he wished would come back, others he was glad to see go. However, the two beefcakes that just walked in, Jaskier prayed to any listening deity that they would be back repeatedly.

"What can I get you gents?" Jaskier asked with his most winning smile.

Eyes like molten honey scanned the selection and Jaskier wanted to tuck the strands of white hair behind the man's ear to see his face better.

"Cookies. The personalised ones."

"A fine choice," Jaskier trilled and pulled the tray out. "I can put any name or message on there for you. Even a phone number, if you want to give it to a special someone."

So maybe Jaskier was flirting and hoping for a number from the man for himself. But it seemed to fall on deaf ears.

"Write Eskel on one," the man said, carefully spelling out the name while the other smiled at him indulgently. It had Jaskier's heart fluttering at the sweetness.

"And what shall I put on yours?"

"You should put a heart on either side of Geralt's name," Eskel piped up with a snicker. He got an elbow in the ribs for it but didn't seem to mind.

Obliging, Jaskier did as told, curling the most perfect hearts he could onto the cookie. Done, he popped them in a box and put them on the counter by the till. "Anything else I can do for you today? Does your, uh, friend want anything?"

Geralt's eyes widened before saying, "He's my boyfriend."

Of course he was, the two looked beautiful together and Jaskier sighed internally. However, he couldn't help but note the look horror on Eskel's face. Hopefully he hadn't accidentally helped Geralt out himself and his boyfriend when they were trying to keep things a secret.

"Well, good for you both!" Jaskier mustered up a smile and nodded at the small rainbow flags by the till. "I sometimes do flag cookies if the mood strikes. Usually on a Friday."

The transaction was processed in silence and at speeds. Jaskier could only watch as the two bundled out of his bakery and, as soon as the door closed behind them, Eskel was asking Geralt something, face torn between despair and entertainment. If Jaskier could trust his lip reading, he could have sworn Geralt had said something along the lines of "I panicked, okay?".

Somehow, Geralt and Eskel became semi-regulars. They didn't pop in on a specific day each week but they were bound to appear either independently or with each other. Each time they did, Jaskier watched them with heart eyes. Eskel was broad, almost apologetically large but kind and gentle. He was quite the sight to behold but Jaskier had an even softer spot for Geralt who really looked like he needed to relax. So, whenever he came by alone, Jaskier slipped an extra cookie in his bag or asked him to be a taster for a newer cupcake flavour.

It was all going well until Geralt came into the bakery with someone new. Another well-built, handsome man but with a sharp edge to his energy. He made a beeline for the display case by the till.

"Please don't knock on the glass, it scares the muffins," Jaskier said by way of greeting and got a bark of a laugh.

"I'll be careful, don't you worry. It's Geralt you need to keep an eye on."

Which Jaskier diligently was. Well, he was checking out Geralt's backside. Tearing his gaze away, he cleared his throat.

"I'm glad Geralt has brought a friend along today."

"Friend?" The man stood up straight with a hand over his heart. "Geralt, what have you been telling people? I'm his boyfriend!"

Which just didn't compute. Geralt had called Eskel his boyfriend. The mild panic of figuring it out was interrupted by a low growl of "Lambert" that was both a threat and fond exasperation.

"What might people think?" Lambert cried out dramatically. "Are you ashamed of our love?"

A hand clamped on the back of Lambert's neck and Geralt stood next to him, not letting go. "Jaskier, a couple of dark chocolate and ginger cookies please and a tray of lemon muffins."

Hastily putting everything in boxes, Jaskier tried not to let his imagination go too wild. Maybe Eskel was Geralt's boyfriend but so was Lambert. It wasn't unheard of really. It gave hope to Jaskier that they might take a liking to him and invite him home for a wild night. He could only watch as they walked out and the first thing Geralt did was cuff Lambert on the back of the head.

Things only got more weird. The next time Geralt was in, he was trailed by another man. Lithe, seemingly on the edge of bursting out giggling and he made a beeline for the counter.

"You're Jaskier, right?" The man held a hand out. "I've heard so much about you! I'm Aiden, Geralt's boyfriend."

Face schooled into something carefully blank, Jaskier nodded. "A pleasure to meet you."

"I think the pleasure is all mine." The wink was followed by a blatant once over and a low whistle. In the background Geralt closed his eyes, jaw twitching as he visibly counted backwards from ten. This time Aiden was the one who asked for a dozen cookies with an array of pride flags on them, two of each, pan, bi, ace, nonbinary, trans and demi. Oddly, the polyamory one Jaskier had started making since meeting Geralt and his boyfriends was left unrequested. The two left and Jaskier rubbed at his temple, trying to figure out just how four incredibly attractive men had found happiness with each other.

Only a week later Jaskier was waiting for a customer to make up his mind. He was the most silently intense man Jaskier had ever encountered and he really wished he'd hurry up and leave. Alas, he was taking so long, looking over everything in the display cases like the choice was of the utmost importance.

"I'll take two cherry and almond slices."

Cutting said cake, Jaskier was relieved and hoped that once the man had gone, he'd not be back again. The sound of the bell above the door had him looking up and Geralt stood there, alone for once. However, he eyed the man by the counter with a closed off expression which remained as the man took his slices and walked past Geralt, shoulders brushing.

"Geralt.

"Cahir."

It was awkward and Jaskier tried not to pry. But curiosity won out. "Another boyfriend."

From the door Cahir laughed. "He wishes."

For a moment Geralt stared at the ground before squaring his shoulders. "They're not my boyfriend. They're dating Eskel."

Immediately Jaskier adjusted his internal monologue to reflect the new pronouns. Though what Geralt just said made no difference.

"Are they a paramour to your polycule?"

"No." Geralt shook his head firmly. "Cahir and Eskel are a couple. So are Lambert and Aiden."

Not understanding, Jaskier wet his lips and cast a glance around. His eyes landed on a familiar group on the sidewalk outside the shop, making no attempt to disguise the fact they were all watching. Cahir and Eskel were leaning shoulder to shoulder as they munched on their cake. Meanwhile Lambert leered and Aiden sent him a thumbs up.

"I'm not sure I understand," Jaskier said. "I thought you said they were all your boyfriends."

Feet shuffling on the spot, Geralt cleared his throat. "Lambert and Eskel are my brothers." Which made even less sense and Jaaskier hummed, desperately trying to understand without asking whether Geralt really just admit to being in an incestuous relationship.

"I'm not dating any of them."

But you said-"

"I panicked." Geralt was watching Jaskier intently. "You were cute, flirty and I panicked. I wanted to ask you out."

A giggle bubbled out of Jaskier. He couldn't quite wrap his head around it but that wasn't a problem in the moment.

"Well then, how about a personalised cookie, on the house?" He grabbed Geralt's favourite and, with a flourish, wrote his own name and number on it, dotting the 'i' with a heart. Handing it over, he smiled. "I told you these cookies were great for phone numbers."

Outside a cheer went up as Geralt's family decided that the outing had been a success.

Medicinal Plants Written By: @nyxpixels

LONG POST

Please keep in mind that most of this information can be found on the Kotlc wiki and within the Keeper books themselves.

Dimmetines, Hushspurs, Respitillis, Vesperlace - The combination of these 4 night-blooming plants inspired the precious lyrics that banish the echoes of shadowflux. (Created by Flori)

Aethrials, Dreamlilise, Reveriebells, Sweetshades- The combination of these 4 plants allows for nightmares to subside. (Created by Calla.)

Aethrials- Identified by their soft songs and small light-colored petals, it can be used as a weak sedative. It is one of the flowers used in an efflorescence site.

Dimmetines- A small flowering plant that thrives in darkness, the plants tune is commonly described as “earthy.”

Dreamlilies- They are teal in color with ominous, pointed petals. The flowers' pollen is extremely sedative- just touching the pollen is enough to sedate a fully-grown elf. In the Sanctuary they are woven into a lei when used to sedate animals. They were hybridized with other sleep-inducing plants (Aethrials, and Sweetshades) by Calla to create the Reveriebells. (These flowers were also found at efflorescence sites.)

Hushspurs- Flowering vines that can only be found growing in the trunks of trees. Because these plants are only found in the trunks of trees, there is not much known about them.

Panakes Tree- Panakes are a Gnomish plant capable of aiding the healing of any ailment through their blossoms and petals. Panakes trees are created when a Gnome sacrifices themself to create one by turning themselves into a panakes tree. They have colored blossoms that can change color; they are usually pink, purple, or blue hues. The Panakes bears a significant resemblance to a willow tree. (Let it be noted that when sung to by a gnome (Flori) it seems that the tree blooms more vibrantly.

Pures (Purfoliage Palmae)- Pures, are the most common tree in the Lost Cities. They are described to have mammoth trunks, with burnt sienna bark that is braided up it. They have hunter green leaves that are shaped like a fan paintbrush. Their leaves are known to filter out any pollution or imperfections in the air; Due to the high quantity of Pures in Eternalia, the air quality there is the best in the world. There is always one in every house and city. The crisp, cool air it provides is described to smell like cinnamon, chocolate, and sunshine. Every piece of land in the Lost Cities has at least one Pure, to cleanse the air.

Respitillis- These delicate flowers can be found growing in 4 different locations. The are identified by their pointed white petals, and hooked anthers.

Reveriebells- Reveriebells are a special hybrid of flowers that Calla made for Sophie to help her sleep.  Some of the flowers emit sweet scents that can make a person sleepy and cause mild fatigue. The purple flowers smell like gardenias, a hint of vanilla, and something spicy (such as ginger).  They show several layers of fluffy petals that have a slight ombre-effect of dark to light, along with several pointed leaves and a long twisting stem. Many stamens appear at the end of the flower, giving off a slightly lily-esque appearance.

Starglass Flower- The Starglass Flower is used for a variety of purposes. Its nectar is the main ingredient in the production of Somnalene, which is a sedative -like liquid that is used in the form of eye drops.

Sugarbells- Sugarbelles are tiny pink flowers used by physicians to make medicine. Despite the sparkly, pink look of the nectar, these flowers taste terrible. A vial of nectar can heal a patient who has been affected by shadowflux.

Sweetshades- The sleep inducing Sweetshades are identified by their "lacy pink blossoms". They are grown mostly as sleep aids. They grow in marshy wet grounds. Sweetshades were used to create the hybrid plant reveriebells.

Vesperlace- In the daytime, it appears as a wispy vine with leaves of a darker shade that has small clusters of pearl white buds. It is said to only bloom at night, though its night-form is not well known. It is only able to grow in the darkest points of the most silent forests. According to Flori, its melody is like the rhythm of darkness, that is the same pulse as that of the echoes.

🍺

Mickey was tipsy when they stumbled through the door into their apartment, Ian two beers in and drunk off his ass as he clung to him, arm thrown around his neck in a loose headlock.

Ian was on the verge of face-planting the floor, his feet crisscrossing over one another, ankles twisting as he headed towards the couch, giggles escaping past his lips.

Mickey, for one, wasn't that drunk that he couldn't comprehend what the fuck was happening—that Ian drinking two beers—and maybe sneaking one shot when he thought nobody was looking—resulted in said man clutching his stomach in their living room as he laughed about something. As gasping noises rolled past his lips, back arching as he bowed down in happy pain.

Mickey was still tipsy, though, his brain slightly mushed and thoughts in disarray. He couldn't really think straight—not that he ever did—and his husband laughing did nothing to sober him up. Instead, Mickey was right there with him, small chuckles turning into loud snorts as they laughed over nothing in the darkness of their Westside place.

"What the fuck is so funny?" Mickey managed to get out as he plopped down next to Ian, arm going around his shoulders, prompting him to lay his head down on Mickey's chest. He was still out of breath, his inhales loud in the two am silence.

Their eyes locked, Ian's shiny and glazed over. He smiled softly. "I was thinking about you and me back in the day." He chuckled again. "How stupid we were."

And they had been. Mickey could agree with that, at least. The push and pull, the hiding—the hurting and love. He felt a slight cold numb his body. It sobered him up, the four beers feeling more like water.

"We were so fucking stupid."

Ian giggled, the cute sound making Mickey's heart leap. His tall-as-fuck ginger, letting out a high-pitched squeal, unbelievably drunk. It was adorable.

Suddenly, Ian pushed himself off of Mickey, energetic even at that time of night, and Mickey eyed him warily.

"What's happening?" He asked as Ian made his way towards the kitchen, flicking the light on.

A white glow illuminated the clean space—Ian had scrubbed it all down before they had left for drinks, right after they'd scarfed down lunch they had made together. Another one of those small joys in Mickey's life, unexpected yet welcome.

Mickey watched as Ian rummaged through cabinets, easily reaching the highest shelves, back going down in a wide arch to reach the lowest.

When he pulled out the bag of flour, eyes wide, still fucking giggling, Mickey understood what was happening.

"No! You're not cooking anything at this time of night, Ian!" He whisper-shouted, somehow aware of the calmness of the night. The Westside was always like that, in contrast to the Southside with its blaring guns and loud screams. It irked Mickey, but he learned to adapt, finally leaning into the silence rather than pushing it out.

Ian had bought him those white-noise plugs for their anniversary, adapting it so the loud crashes and dog barks reverberated through Mickey's brain on a constant loop.

Ian giggled, "Yes, we are."

As he watched his husband pull out eggs and crack one messily on the pristine counter, Mickey admired the way he was, attentive and caring. Loving and sweet.

Drunk as fuck too, but okay.

"Okay, soooo," Ian slurred. "Let's make those chocolate creme donuts you, uh," He seemed to be racking his brain for a word. "Uh, get from, uh, Sweet Susans for me." Ian nodded, eyes hooded, mind obviously going a mile per minute in its inebriated state.

"Ian, it's the middle of the fucking night. You're drunk."

"No, no. Come here."

Mickey didn't move.

Ian gave him a look. "Come here, pleaseee?"

Conceding, Mickey approached him. The cracked egg was abandoned in a small plastic bowl.

Did donuts even need eggs?

As soon as he came into reach, arms wrapped around his waist, pulling him in. He glanced at Ian, his eyes so green in the light, the freckles finally out of hiding and at Mickey's disposal.

He ran a finger lightly across them. Ian sighed contently, eyes dropping and closing on their own accord.

"Come on, big guy" Mickey huffed out a laugh. "Let's get you to bed."

"But the donuts," Ian mumbled.

"Tomorrow, Red, tomorrow."

Mickey tried to move, but Ian held him tight, head dropping straight onto Mickey's chest. "No, baby, don't go."

His chest swelled. He ran fingers through Ian's hair, the red locks soft. "I'm not going anywhere, we're just gonna go to bed together."

His arms tightened. "Together? You promise?"

"I promise."

"I can't sleep when you're not there." He said, voice distorted. "I rarely could after prison."

Mickey paused. "What?"

"That night at the apartment, I couldn't sleep at all. I was so sad you hated it here. I hated myself for it."

"Ian..."

"You like it now, don't you?" Ian looked up. "Right?"

Mickey answered sincerely. "I love anywhere with you. I loved prison with you. This is perfect."

And it was. It truly was.

"Good. If it isn't, just say the word. I'd do anything for you. I love you so, so much."

"So, so much?"

"Mhmm... So, so much."

He pressed a kiss to the top of Ian's head.

He then grabbed Ian's arms, unfurled them from around his waist, and steered them towards their bedroom, careful not to knock anything over as they made the short trip.

He watched as Ian stripped and then doused a butt-load of mouthwash, gurgling it while laughing, then choking and spitting it out, going red in the cheeks, making Mickey have to stifle a laugh.

He crawled into bed as Mickey did the same, too tired to even consider brushing his teeth.

He heard a faint, "Come to bed, my love," It was whispered, soft, so unlike and like Ian that it made Mickey's breath catch in his throat.

He crawled into bed and let himself get enveloped again. The last thing he heard before he fell asleep was the fuzzy sound of Ian's drunk laughter as he once again remembered something from some long time ago.

He didn't even need the white noise, that sound alone just enough.

soft haikyuu!! boys with a baddie* s/o  😈

characters:  yamaguchi, hinata, suga, akaashi, nishinoya & tendou

tw// swearing

*(a/n): anon requested a kinda sassy, sarcastic reader and verbatim ‘she is basically a salt bag, but she also has like some sugar’  so i simplified that down to baddie :) so the reader isn’t really a delinquent but they are a bit rough around the edges uffabvrslbv 

Tadashi Yamaguchi

he definitely thinks you’re really cool and he wants to be just like you :O

bc you give off ‘bad bitch who doesn’t care about what other ppl think about them’ energy and what he would give tO HAVE THAT!!

so that’s when he knew he needed to be your friend >:) 

so he was like ‘tsukki, go talk to (y/n) for me >:)’ thinking that was his first step to becoming confident pfft

luckily, god was on his side though bc the teacher rearranged the seats and you and him were sitting next to each other 

hence, he got the opportunity to talk to you without it seeming too forced

you both fell for each other so hard

like he would act tough to try impress you but you preferred his natural softness while you tried to act uncharacteristically docile so you wouldn’t scare him off but he liked you for your boldness 

it was a match made in heaven 💞

he eventually worked up the courage to ask you out one day and y’all have just been falling more ever since

although, that doesn’t mean yamaguchi’s forgotten one of the main reasons he wanted to be with you in the first place

‘please teach me your ways, (y/n)!’ he pleaded, his head resting on your lap so you had to cover his puppy-eyes with your phone

‘no, tadashi. firstly, you’re sweet and gentle- you’re just built like that. secondly, i don’t have any ‘ways’ to teach you!’

yamaguchi continued to pry, ‘then how are you just so effortlessly self-assured?’

‘who told you that, tadashi?’

‘no one.’ yamaguchi poked the back of your hand to get you to move it, ‘but remember that time one of the guys in our class tried to make fun of the size of your head and you told him to shut up?’

you rolled your eyes, setting your phone aside before placing a brief kiss on yamaguchi’s forehead, ‘he said he couldn’t see the board because of my ‘big head’, tadashi; that’s hardly an insult. also, what else could i have possibly said other than that?’

but then you remembered this is yamaguchi you’re talking to; if that was him, he’d probably apologise, move his head aside then cry in the bathroom or sumn.

‘i should be the one asking you why you’re so insecure. i mean, i know everyone is a little bit insecure about something but you just take it to a whole other level.’ you mused, absentmindedly massaging his scalp

yamaguchi frowned, ‘exactly! teach me how to stop being insecure.’

‘no please, no thank you?’ you inquired with a snicker, realising that your habits might of accidentally rubbed off on him

bc just a few weeks ago, he’d be thanking you for breathing the same air as him but now he didn’t even say ‘please’ when asking for a favour 

gasp

‘please teach me how to be resilient, (y/n).’

you chuckled, leaning down to whisper in his ear, ‘okay, since you’re so polite, i’ll tell you my secret - but promise not to tell anybody else!.’

‘i promise.’ yamaguchi replied without hesitation

‘okay, first thing you need to do is go to the depths of hell and find satan hims--’ 

yamaguchi let out a sigh as he realised that you weren’t being serious then playfully flicked your forehead away, ‘rude.’

you beamed, pressing another kiss upon his forehead, ‘i know~’

Shōyō Hinata

let’s not pretend hinata wasn’t shitting his pants when he first heard about you from kageyama

‘they called me a shitty setter the other day.’

but kageyama failed to mention the part where he cut you in line for lunch 🙄 mans had it coming

like hinata genuinely thought that if he came within a 5 foot radius of you, you’d literally come for volleyball career

plus, hinata knew he had a lot of things to be insults on (mostly, his height) so he decided to keep his distance at first 

but when he actually saw you - rather than a vague description that kageyama conjured - he kinda fell head over heels

well, not only bc of your looks - he isn’t that shallow

but the same day, you dropped your purse/wallet on the walk home and ,mhsince hinata was walking behind you, he acted as any good Samaritan would; picked it up then handed it to you 

then you said something along the lines of ‘thanks, shorty.’

not shawty. lord- shorty as in short with a y at the end

and whether you meant that as a dig or not was beyond him - but either way, he fkn adored it 

also it doesn’t matter whether you are taller or shorter than hinata- he is still short-stuff >:)

by some miracle he managed to ask you out successfully and he’s kinda been glued to you ever since

like he wants to spend every second that he’s not at volleyball club/school with you 

and if you tell him he’s being clingy, he’s going to cry-

nonono jk jk

he’d probably be a bit offended but then give you your space

also, you noticed how he was really endeared by the tad mean nicknames you gave him like ‘shorty’, ‘short stuff’ and ‘ginger’

the only ones he didn’t like was ‘boke’ or ‘dumbass’ bc it reminded him too much of kageyama + tsukishima

so you started calling him these things - teasingly - more frequently 

and he loves it ngl

as long as you aren’t truly mean to him, he enjoys being called these things by you for some reason

so, his first mistake was assuming that you’d like being called these joking nicknames just as much as he does

you were helping him with english once and it’s definitely not his strong suit

same, hinata

‘look at that! you spelt all your vocabs correctly, for a change.’ you commented, peering over the desk at the paper sitting in front of him

his eyes widened and his lips curled into a hopeful smile, ‘really?!’

‘no.’ you snickered, pointing to the first word on the list. ‘your word was taxis - you wrote ‘texas’, dumbass.’

hinata let out an exasperated sigh, propping his elbow onto the table to rest his cheek on his palm

then, he had an idea ( •̀ ω •́ )✧

‘alright, stupidface, should i rewrite them?’

you gasped, furrowing your brows at what he just called you 

for a moment, you thought you might’ve misheard him but upon observing his smug expression, you realised that he really did just call you a ‘stupidface’ 

so you burst out laughing 

obviously, hinata was rather shocked at your reaction

‘hey! what’s so funny?’

‘di- di- did you just call me a ‘stupidface’?!’ you panted in-between cackles, clutching your stomach to soothe the butterflies

hinata jutted out his bottom lip and folding his arms over his chest, ‘yeah, what about it?’

‘that is so cute!- do it again!’ you demanded, enthusiastically slamming your fist against the desk

‘IT’S NOT CUTE!’ hinata barked, playfully flicking your forehead 

once you caught your breath, you took hinata’s hands and looked him dead in the eyes, ‘you’re fucking adorable, shōyō.’

the hoarseness of your voice making it sound like somewhat of a threat 

‘you’re adorable-er, (y/n).’

‘i know.’

Kōshi Sugawara 

he admires how strong and independent you are/seem 😍

and the fact you don’t go out of your way to suck-up to ppl 

he kinda wants to be like you in that sense but unlike yamaguchi, he accepts that he’s way too much of a people pleaser for that lol

so he sticks to admiring you from afar

then he musters up the courage to ask you out with some chocolate cupcakes; the same kind that you accidentally got on his blazer on the first day of second year :))

and you say yes (╯▽╰ )

also a big part of your relationship is aggressive positivity ✨😡

like if he makes a joke about looking crusty, you’ll promptly respond, ‘shut up, kōshi - you look so hot.’

or if you berate yourself for getting a poor mark on a test, suga will interrupt with no hesitation, ‘fuck off, (y/n), you’re literally so smart and hard working - you’ll probably get 100% on the next test.’

also when he’s around you he switches between canon and fanon suga rapidly 

one second he’s like ‘aww, are you stressed bc of school? i’ll bake you some cookies, baby--’ then you’ll jokingly make a comment about his post-practise B.O and he’ll literally get so defensive

‘WOW I OFFER YOU SOMETHING NICE AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME?! STOP BEING SO MEAN TO ME, COMING FOR MY INSECURITES LIKE THAT  - I WAS JUST ABOUT TO GO FOR A SHOWER ANYWAY GEEZ’ ┗|｀O′|┛

ISVBFELIAEA plz he is too much ✋

he just prides himself in smelling like ocean breeze 99% of the time so you really didn’t need to hurt his feelings like that when you caught him lackin c’mon LMAO

‘wait so are we making cookies or not?’ you inquired, stifling a snicker at his little diva moment

‘ofc we are 🥺’  

he’ll probably use red icing on one of the cookies to draw a ‘>:(’ face then hand it to you, saying that he drew you

he’ll also break of bits of his own cookie and feed it to you’re doing something that requires both hands like typing, homework, dishes etc

whether you eat it from his hand happily, decline his offer or bite his fingers off is really up to you 

and over time, he probably picks up on some of your traits too

especially being more straight-forward 

the team will never forget the first time he was chatting about something with the vice principle and ‘sorry, but i don’t remember asking’  fell from his lips 

everyone was shocked :o

tsukishima, tanaka & noya were so impressed tho

and so were you IVBEAOGVRN

‘wow, suga. you wanna be me so bad.’ you gloated, pressing your hand against your chest 

‘GAEIVBSLR leave me alone.’ he growled, toiling over the apology letter he was currently writing to the vice principal

Keiji Akaashi 

he wanted you to be the dark academia to his light academia pfft

it was very much love at first sight btw 

(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ soulmates  *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

the embodiment of opposites attract

he’d write you a poem/love letter to ask you out lol

‘you’re so sappy and lame, akaashi’ you scoffed in attempt to hide the smile that was tugging at the corners of your lips as your eyes finally parted from the letter to meet his 

he couldn’t help but chuckle, ‘so is that a no?’

‘-nonono!’ you shook your head rapidly, hastily correcting him, ‘it’s a yes.’

phew 

honestly, he acted all nonchalant on the outside, but akaashi would’ve been devastated if you rejected him

like he constantly tried to remind himself that you would probably say no, i mean he thought you were way out of his league. plus, it didn’t seem as though you were as much of a romantic as him

but fortunately, apart of him stayed hopeful 

now he was cuddled up beside you on a cold winters’ evening, casually drinking is hot cocoa as you both watched a disney movie (❤´艸｀❤)

he’s the type to not even care or retort if you call him stupid or whatever

as long as your context makes it clear that you’re joking 

he’d never call you those names back though ✋

to him, you’re always gonna be ‘love’ or ‘sweetheart’

also, he’s probably equally as sarcastic as you so that’s not an issue 

ngl he probably gets really insecure when you’re hesitant about PDA tho

like he just wants to hold your hand but he doesn’t want to force it upon you and make you uncomfortable 🥺

but also, perhaps you’re too embarrassed by him to kiss him in public 

so please occasionally reassure him that you love him (；′⌒`) that always washes all his worries away 

Yū Nishinoya

it’s literally canon that he likes ppl who show 0 interest in him (kiyoko, tsukki etc)

so it shouldn’t be surprising that he’s all over you after that one time you called him a midget 

to be fair, he had it coming - he stepped on your fkn toe >:(( 

he does everything in his power to impress you and get you to take back what you said 

‘hey, (y/n)!’ he calls out to you in the middle of the bustling lunch hall, ‘could a midget do this?!’ *backflips off the table*

or when he demanded that you come to one of his volleyball games so you could see what he’s capable of and whenever he makes a good receive, he turns to look at you in the stands and winks/ points

or when he actually studies for a test just so he can flaunt his slightly above average grade to you 

‘look, (y/n), i got a 49%!’ he waves a paper in front of your face, which you stare at before lowering your gaze onto your 95%.

but ngl..he really brings out that lil’ bit of sugar in you 

‘well done, noya.’ you choked out feeling your dignity slowly fade in your chest

he’s just so enthusiastic and charming how can you be mean to him 🥺

to his face, at least

as soon as he leaves you beef about him to your friends

‘he is so annoyingly bodacious - audacious! why does he feel the need to show me all of his achievements like i care??? and why does he have to be so cute while doing it???’

‘do you think you maybe have a teeny-tiny crush on him?--’

‘never.’

nishinoya probably asks you out pretty casually like ‘lemme take you bowling this saturday and i can show how good i am at that too!’ he offered with a bright, bold smile

‘sure, whatever.’

‘kay! it’s a date!’

‘wut-’ but before you could question him further, he sped off

nishinoya really likes to fluster and tease you 

you’ll be sitting waiting for him at the park or whatever and he’ll swagger in and shout something like ‘how’s my gorgeous s/o doing today?! i hope you weren’t waiting for me too long!--’

then you’ll have to quickly shush him before everyone with a 7 feet radius is looking at you judgementally 

he also likes to call you the most extra nicknames just to see you blush

‘good morning, my beautiful, divine, radiant god(dess) who i worship every morning of my life!~’ he sung as he waltzed into your classroom to spend lunch with you 

but he only does that bc you are so dismissive of his advances lol

like if you openly adored his kisses and nicknames, he’d probably do them sparingly  

oh and he calls you ‘my hunny bunny’ too - don’t ask why 

Satori Tendō

you gave him your number/snap for a project and he’s one of those ppl that just assumes that y’all are friend now lol

but that wasn’t nessicarily a bad thing bc you thought he was really cool and you were happy that you still got to talk to him even after the project was over 

not that you’d ever admit it tho (╹ڡ╹ )

he’d send you cursed memes at 3AM and you’d reply like ‘mood’  then he’d fall for you 

you’d also have random, deep convos in the middle of the night 

hence he fell for you even harder 

especially bc he basically just shared his whole life story with you 

he’d spill out all his insecurities to you then you’d reply like ‘ok’ then he knew he had to ask you out bc you’re the first person not to have left him on read

so he asked you to meet him in the park and you’d reply ‘no lol  🖕 ‘ 

then he’d just smile at his phone like ‘wow, they’re so in love with me’

he’s just so used to his friends being mean to him jokingly that he can’t even tell if you’re being serious or not

so he goes to the park at the time he put forward, and ofc you’re there even though you said no bc you didn’t want tendō to show up for nothing 🥺

he was ecstatic that you were there and he probably brought you an energy drink or lollipop then asked you out

and ofc you said yes

i mean- you had kinda developed a soft spot for the poor guy 

you’d let him get away with certain things that others couldn’t around you 

for instance, you’d let him borrow your pencils/pens despite usually not allowing others to get ahold of your stuff

but that was just coz like- he’s your trustworthy bf- not some random classmate who had no reason or motive to be kind enough to return your pencils 

also, you’d let him cut in front of you in the lunch line and he did the same for you

oh and please bully anyone who makes fun of him 🙏

MEET MY MC

name: Vienna Maxine Byrne

faceclaim: (blonde) Chyler Leigh

birthday: 5th february 1993

zodiac sign: aquarius

nationality: american/irish

born: Dublin

raised: Dublin, moved to USA when she was 12

love interest: Ethan Ramsey

family: Vienna's the oldest from 4 siblings, she has a sister, Venice and two brothers, Lochlan and Lorcan. Also a twin nephew and niece.

some more information, funfacts and headcanons:

general:

●born in Ireland to Irish father and American mother

●aside from medicine, her passion while growing up was singing, she was a part of high school glee club and was basically a star

●Vienna has a soft spot for soccer and watching Lochlan play for national team is a dream come true

●she loves fantasy books, when she was younger she often spend whole days in her room reading.

●winter is her favourite time of the year, especially christmas, she's a sucker for a good christmas movie and hot chocolate.

●Vienna watched all seasons of Grey's Anatomy and even forced Ethan to watch a few episodes with her (but if asked he'll never admit it)

●First time Vienna felt something more for Ethan was Miami, she knew she was in love with him after the attack

●as their relationship started to be a basic knwoledge to everyone at Edenbrook, people started to notice Vienna's impact on Ethan.

●basically, simple "Ethan" and a hand over his shoulder was enough to calm him down and save another innocent intern.

●even the staff that knew Ethan for years never saw him smiling that much at work, yet even laughing, as when Vienna was around.

●seeing him bickering and joking with her around the hospital was a shock to many people.

●Vienna took his last name after the wedding and thanks to Ethan being mostly called "Chief" these days, it didn't cause much trouble.

●As Vienna once said "Ethan was all bark and no bite", she became the opposite. She was patient, she often didn't had a reason to even warn. But when she had enough, you better run.

●"The Ramseys" became a powercouple. As they walked together arm in arm through the hospital corridors, it screamed power.

●And their speeches as they welcomed new interns, standing above everybody. Power.

engagment, wedding and first pregnancy:

●Ethan proposed to her in January 2021, in Miami, on the same balcony where they had their first kiss and this time no one was stopping themselves from going further

●she gave her roommates (mostly Sienna) a heart attack when she came back from Miami as she told them, with a stone cold face "Ethan is no longer my boyfriend".

●after a few seconds of dead silence she added "because he's my fiance", and showed them a ring, Sienna started to hit her with dish cloth - she really thought they had broken up (if Elijah hadn't stopped her, there would probably be casualties)

●night in Miami had consequences

●Vienna found she was pregnant not even a month after their engagement, yet she was kinda scared to tell Ethan, as they never really discussed having kids, but in the end his reaction was priceless.

●yes, he cried and was the happiest Vienna ever saw him.

●they wanted to keep in private for as long as they could which turned out to be almost 3 months

●first person to realize Vienna was pregnant was Harper, one day during diagnostic team meeting, she looked at her, suddenly told her to stand up and just said "You're pregnant, aren't you?"

●Ethan become even more protective over Vienna and if he could he would became her shadow.

●he was scared every time he didn't saw her, even through he kept checking on her every half an hour.

●yes, they had a few spats about that.

●Ethan wanted her to go on a pregnancy leave really early, but of course Vienna wanted to work as long as she could, which gave Ethan his first grey hair.

●Flynn Naveen Ramsey was born on 19th November 2021 and since that day, Ethan Ramsey, a man who not so long before never imagined himself as a father, became the best dad a kid could have and his dream, he never even realized he had, came true.

●Vienna and Ethan's wedding took place in october 2022, at Naveen's lake house. It was small, private ceremony with family and closest friends.

●wedding reception was in gold and dark green theme, with a lot of fairylights and candles

●Sienna was Vienna's maid of honor and Tobias was Ethan's groomsman.

●they had their first dance to Everything by Lighthouse.

●Naveen's speech made everyone cry.

●just like Vienna's siblings speech, but this time it was from laughing.

●Flynn took his first steps on his own at the wedding.

kids:

●four and a half year later, on 2nd April 2025, their little family welcomed a baby girl - Harley Dolores Ramsey.

●Harley was the only planned baby

●on Christmas 2026, Vienna suprised Ethan with another ultrasound picture.

●newest and final addition to the Ramsey family was Anais Sienna Ramsey, born on 10th June 2027.

●Flynn is his father physical copy with longer hair, when it comes to his character he's the perfect mix between Ethan and Vienna.

●since he was a toddler he was fascinated with his parents work, so it wasn't a surprise to anyone when he decided to become a doctor as well.

●but he shooked his parents, when he announced he wants to be a surgeon (yet studying under Bryce, he become an outstanding one)

●Harley, on the other hand is defenitely Vienna's clone, no exceptions, she's just a little bit more of a tomboy than heir mother was.

●always wanting to help everyone and everything, never afraid to speak her mind. She wanted to make a change in the world.

●unlike her brother she didn't follow her parents footsteps, but she was always doing something, always founding someone she could help all around the world.

●Anais is a total mix. A little ray of sunshine, with dark, ginger hair and smile that lights up every room she shows up in.

●when she was four it turned out that she has photographic memory.
