Giving - Dec. 12th - word count: 729 - @wolfstarmicrofic

Remus Lupin sat down near the hearth of Potter Manor, holding a plate of pastries and a mug of hot chocolate.

Sirius Black was sitting right next to him in the little circle that his friends had made. Remus smiled at his boyfriend and passed him a Muggle store-bought croissant, grinning when Sirius wrinkled his nose.

“Moony, are you trying to poison me? What is this- this abomination?” Sirius asked, dropping the pastry on the floor. “How dare you hand that to me?”

“Well, Sirius, you were the one who suggested we get some Muggle foods to try over Christmas hols. It’s not my fault,” Remus shrugged.

“How dare you, Moony,” Sirius said, putting a hand on his heart and pretending to faint like a Victorian-Era lady. “That is pure lies and slander, and you know it.”

“Shut up, Sirius. We want to start the gift opening,” grumbled Lily from where she was nestled into James’s side. “Save the dramatics for later.”

“Fine,” Sirius pouted, righting himself. “Who’s up first?”

“Sirius,” Peter sighed, “If you had been listening then you would have realized that it was you first. But noooo, you had to go and faint over a croissant.”

“Hey! It was an utter travesty to all French food, stop defending that atrocity,” Sirius protested, getting up and walking over to the tree to get his gift. 

Lily had insisted on doing something different this year, so she had chosen some sort of Muggle tradition called “Secret Santa” or something like that. It involved slips of paper and also a lot of secrecy, but Sirius was great at secrecy.

Oh, and his gift was for Remus. It may or may not have been a stack of books, but that didn’t matter.

Sirius grabbed the bright red present with his name on it from under the tree and made his way back over to the group.

“Unwrap it!” cheered James, which caused Lily to smack him in the arm. 

Sirius did as told, and was surprised to see a bright red and gold scarf. He picked it up, trying to figure out who had given it to him. 

It must have been Lily, he figured, as she was able to knit and she also liked to make her friends gifts.

“Lily, was this from you?” Sirius asked.

“No, it wasn’t, actually.” She smirked and glanced at Peter, who sighed at her devious smirk. 

“It’s from me, Sirius,” Peter said. “I also charmed it to be durable and also to be warm no matter what, so that Padfoot has something to play tug with that’s harder to break.”

“Thanks, Pete,” Sirius said, pretending to blow him a kiss. “Such a thoughtful lad, you are.”

“Well yeah. It’s the season of giving, after all. Now,” Peter clapped his hands together. “Remus, you’re up.”

Remus made his way over to the tree as well, picking out a deep blue box and going back to the little circle that his friends had made. 

Upon unwrapping it, his eyes widened when he saw first editions of all of his favorite books. Who the fuck would have this much money- Oh. Wait. Sirius and James would.

Remus made a guess at who the gift-giver was. He did have a fifty-fifty chance, after all. 

“Sirius, fess up. Why’d you do this for me?” 

Sirius’s eyes widened, obviously not expecting his boyfriend to guess him first try. “I mean, you said you liked those books?” he said weakly.

“No, no. Well, yes, I do, but these are first editions, Sirius. I expect you know how rare and valuable these are, no? Why?” Remus asked, already doing mental calculations for how much he owed.

“Because I love you? You mean so much to me, and also that was, like, barely a dent in Alphard’s money. I’d totally do it again. When Wally and Onion die then I’ll buy you all the books you want., actually. Make them roll in their graves a bit, you know?”

Remus sat there, shocked, before regaining his senses and pulling his boyfriend into a kiss.

A good few seconds into the kiss, Remus heard James gag. “Get a room, you two. Please. You’re dirtying the pastries’ innocent dough.” 

They broke apart, shooting him a dirty look in unison before bursting into laughter. 

“The pastries? Seriously?” Lily said, looking up at him.

“Yeah, love. Siriusly.”

Drunken words are sober thoughts.

Ryis x Reader!

Summary: After finishing up the donations for the General Store, you find yourself at the Inn having too many drinks when Ryis arrives.

Warnings: Intoxicated reader, and March.

It was a long week. That was for sure, you had managed to get the general store materials gathered and dropped in the donations box. The amount of times you had dedicated to going down in the mines for it was no laughing matter. Not to mention all the artifacts you had found while you were down there. The money was a harder feat that involved you running around like a mad man foraging everything you could, fishing from dawn til dusk, and trying to get your crops thriving. Each time your pack was full, you’d run all the way back to your farm and drop it off before scarfing down some food and heading back out.

But you did it.. Not to brag.

So the drinks at the Inn were welcomed. Especially when the first few had been on Nora for your hard work. The burn of the alcohol tasted delicious after working so hard. The buzz in your veins helping relieve the tension of the week. You threw back the rest of your Hot Toddy- which Hemlock insisted you have. You could have kissed him for it. But you held your self back, there was just one person you wanted to kiss. Laughter was erupting around you, and then you heard March- who had joined you for a few drinks and was now living up to his lightweight status, was excitedly exclaiming his love for his best friend. Gasping your head whips around to see Ryis. He stood there, one of his brows raised as he hears March. But he was standing there in his very nice orange shirt, his black v-neck clinging to him. God, was it possible to be that pretty? Surely it had to be illegal. He shouldn’t get the stand there with his pretty face and not let you kiss him.

You felt the way your heart kickstarted in your chest as you took him in from across the bar. He had high cheekbones, and a perfectly straight nose that complimented the rest of his face so perfectly. Beautiful brown eyes that had the most luscious lashes you had ever seen. Boys really did get graced by the god of eyelashes huh?

In your admiration of Ryis, you had barely noticed how March got up to get to him first. You pouted, you wanted his attention. You wanted to touch Ryis, and be snuggled in those perfectly toned arms of his. “Hey-“ You huffs, stumbling over as you try to beat March to him.

He chuckles at the state of you. “Hi, Y/N.” He says giving you an easy smile. God you loved that smile, it was always so bright- like the sun. He was like the sun, warm, happy, inviting. You could be icarus and fly too close then thank him when you fell. And you weren’t someone who fixated on teeth- but his teeth were so perfect! How could one man be so perfect! March wraps an arm around his shoulders, to which you pout. You wanted to touch him.

“Hi.” You breathe once close enough. “I’m drunk.” You explain, as if the way your cheeks had flushed had made it less obvious. Ryis nods, smiling even softer at you. He was such a good boy.

Ryis nods solemnly finally as he responds, “I can see that. Let’s get you to sit down huh?” He suggests but it’s less of a suggestion and more of a request. Leading you and March back your seats. You couldn’t focus on anything besides the way his hand felt guiding you back to your seat. You needed to hold his hand or you’d die. This was needed. Right now. “What are we celebrating?”

“Y/N, finished the general store!” March boasts for you. Happily throwing his body into the bar to flag down Hemlock. You turn to Ryis and give a nod, ignoring how the room moves with your head.

Ryis’s eyes widen, “You did really? That’s awesome!” He praises, patting your back. Oh. You needed more physical touch right now. “No wonder you’re celebrating!”

You can’t help but let out a giggle, swinging on your chair to cup his cheeks. You had enough of hiding your growing feelings for the carpenter. And so before you could think about it your expression grows shockingly serious. “Why are you so cute?” You say. “It’s not fair, and I think you should kiss me about it. Or at the very least hold my hand. I mean- you are just-“ You squeeze his perfect little cheeks. “So good.”

Ryis blinks, before shaking his head and taking your hands. You did catch how his cheeks had gotten hotter like he’d eaten a pepper. Did that make sense? You hoped that made sense. “How about I ‘kiss you about it’ when you’re sober?” He offers, slowly interlacing your fingers. Watching your drunken brain try and slowly process the words, and process the fact you were holding hands now.

You give a definitive nod. “Yes! I think we have a deal.” You shove your hand at him, with his own. Causing you to blink before you let go and hold up your hand again which he gladly accepts. “Hemlock! Ryis needs a shot!” You call, leaning back in your seat with a happy little squeal.

He lets out a heavy sigh, but he can’t wipe the smile from his face. He was in for a long night, but it was worth it if he got to kiss you tomorrow.

Bonus:

Your head was pounding, and you needed to remind yourself why you should never, ever, drink again. With a groan, you get up to find a note on your bed side table. ’Y/N, here’s aspirin and water. Make sure you stop by so I can kiss you about your accomplishment.

- Ryis.’

A/N: I hope you enjoyed! It’s a little shorter than I would have liked, but nevertheless.

Casey Novak x Reader Headcanons

Completely fabricated but I've decided they're canon nonetheless, don't fight me

Absolute puddle if you send her flowers at work. But you always send them during the day when lots of people are around because Trauma™.

Queen of delayed gratification. Girl puts in the work (at her job and at home iykwim 😉).

An expensive date, but she's worth it.

Secret finance bro with quite the stocks portfolio.

Tries to do all home improvement things herself, on principle, then is pissed for days when she ends up having to call a professional.

Fancy as fuck at work, but changes into sweats and a tank top immediately when she gets home.

Gets her nails done every other week religiously.

Could fall asleep anytime, anywhere.

Very smart with money because she kind of had to be.

Huge Giants and Yankees fan.

Works hard, plays harder.

Never doesn't have a travel deals tab open.

Eats Raisin Bran and Frosted Mini Wheats for breakfast like an old man-child hybrid.

Was not very open to the idea of going to therapy before you, but would do anything to make you happy. Now she actually likes going, and she's salty that you were right.

Will actually be so pissed if you question her directions in the car.

Her Instagram is just photos of you. Maybe one with both of you every once in a while.

Would die for a good lox bagel.

Loves to tease you, but would kill anyone else who tried it.

Convinced a hot toddy will cure her when she's sick, when what she really needs is NyQuil and sleep.

Makes you watch the Thanksgiving episode of Friends every year.

You have to physically keep her out of the kitchen on holidays or she will eat like half of the food before the meal starts.

Still reads the newspaper. She likes to stay informed, plus she thinks it makes her look like a hot '50s businessman (it does).

Drinks a glass of milk at night like a psychopath.

Would only miss Sunday brunch with you for an absolute emergency.

Knows every single word of "Baby Got Back."

Always drives. No exceptions.

Does everything she can to make you feel loved and supported.

Protective to the max.

Sexts you before court, then has her phone off for the whole day like an asshole.

[paingoes]

Have you ever thought of your characters' favorite food and/or drink?

yessss i think about everything…..

delta - raw fish and fruit. poke bowls. salted fish as well. herbal tea. really fruity girl alcohol. negroni.

paris - pure dark chocolate and cigarettes. stimulants and nicotine kill his appetite so his advisors have to remind him to drink nutrient shakes so he wont die. port wine.

lorelai - grew up on farm and had access to really high quality produce, kinda spoiled from it. favorites are apricot jam and peaches. sweet tea. white claw, partly for the nostalgia factor.

kitty - spicy ramen, strawberry shortcake, iced matcha latte. cotton candy vodka. pussy cat shots ;3c

apollo - red curry, gala apples, coffee. doesn’t drink a lot and is probs a lightweight but wholeheartedly believes in the medicinal properties of brandy and hot toddy…. can also drink blood but more on that later i guess

reading your spicy jaydick headcanons like oomphhh

omega!jason is where its at!! especially jason with a big chest. its your average hard chest until dick starts fucking him and massaging it, and then it becomes softer and softer until he has to wear a during his heat because milk keeps coming through

if you cant tell, i love jason and his toddies

Dick is in the middle of his shift when he gets Jason's text: a pin of Jason's location alongside a series of messages that devolve from suggestive to concerning because Jason refuses to give context and tell Dick what's wrong. 'need u' becomes 'hurry’ becomes 'come alone’ becomes 'when i die again im coming back to haunt your alpha ass where are you'

Considering their pillow talk consists of casework, of course Dick's thoughts make an immediate leap to worst case scenarios. Just a few nights ago when Jason was coming down from his heat, the omega had been running through any number of pending caseloads he had, getting himself back on track from time lost and brushing off Dick's offers to assist because, 'you're welcome in my nest, not my territory, alpha.'

The pin is very much in Jason's territory, but the text is invitation enough, right?

Not that it matters. With little more than a mumble to his partner about how Dick needs to leave, he's grabbing his jacket and keys and jogging, running to get to his bike - to get to Gotham, to get to the Alley and to Jason. Dodging his coworkers as he texts Jason back because 'are you okay?' and 'on my way.’

A part of him wants to send one of their siblings despite Jason’s insistence it can only be Dick. If it's an emergency, if Jason is in danger, any of their siblings could be there faster to help until Dick can get there, himself. If not Tim, then Steph. If not Steph, Duke. Hell, Damian would burn the city down if need be. It's not like they don't have options.

All Dick gets in reply is a cryptic: 'death would be kinder than the mess i'm in rn'

Even through text, Dick picks up on Jason's usual brand of dark, dry humor and sarcasm. It doesn't speak much to Jason's safety or his condition, but whatever the mess is can't be too bad if Jason is texting and being ornery about it all.

Regardless of that assurance, Dick makes a forty minute drive in twenty and tracks Jason to a discreet alley off the main road. The omega has tucked himself away behind a dumpster and with how Jason curls in on himself, arms clutching his front, Dick's heart sinks in fear that Jason has been shot or something equally as terrible.

Dirt and grime be damned, Dick rushes to Jason and kneels in front of him - hands already running over him in a clinically concise check to look for any hurts.

It takes some coaxing, but when Jason lifts his head from his knees Dick startles because oh. Jason's face is flushed. There are actual tears welled up in his eyes, arms drawn around his chest and body curled forward as if to hide himself. It reminds Dick so much of when Jason was younger and despite the circumstances he feels charmed and endeared by the show of vulnerability and how Jason trusts him with it.

"It's okay, I've got you." Dick promises. "Tell me what's wrong."

Jason's upper lip lifts in a snarl and that sweet Robin Dick remembers from a lifetime ago falls away to the omega Dick falls in love with time and again. The vicious snarl wobbles soon enough though, wrought with whatever emotion it is Jason is feeling and then Jason keens with…mortification?

It startles Dick to attention, but what's more surprising is how Jason lowers his hands and - and - and-

Jason's top is soaked through. Wet with...

Dick swallows thickly. He can't stop staring. There's not a thought in his alpha brain besides how his omega is milking.

He starts to smile despite the circumstances and Jason smacks him for it, bemoaning Dick and his incessant kneading of Jason's tits and how this is all Dick's fucking fault. Fucking knothead alpha!

'It's natural!' Dick defends while shrugging off his jacket to wrap over Jason's shoulders and give the omega a sense of modesty and security.

But Dick really is a fucking knothead alpha. Discreet as he tries to be, he tries to smell the milk and Jason growls at him, too embarrassed to deal with Dick's antics in that moment because this has never happened before.

And Dick can't help himself again, he preens a bit. Taking pride in himself as an alpha and laughing when Jason slaps at him.

"Sorry, sorry," Dick apologizes, pulling Jason in for a hug to comfort him. The omega settles against him, but grumbles all the while, a constant rumble of displeasure over the inconvenience. Dick rubs his hand along Jason's back and kisses the side of his head, smiling brightly as he heaves a sigh, "Fuck, I was scared you were hurt."

"My pride is hurt." Jason complains and as an afterthought whines, "And my tits are so fucking tender."

"I can - " Dick starts.

Jason nips him and growls, "Not a fucking chance. You've had your fun, alpha."

"Fun's just starting, omega." Dick promises, nipping Jason's ear back in retaliation before pressing a kiss to Jason's cheek and resting their foreheads together. Nuzzling gently to soothe Jason's riled nerves. "Let's get you back to your nest first though, huh?"

[ghostradiodylan]

Do you have any headcanons for how the hacketteers would deal with being sick? Maybe how often they get sick, what type of illnesses they are prone to, etc….

Way behind on Quarry asks but I am home sick with some kind of crud right now so what better time to answer this one?!

Emma - Emma is a people person and always on the go, so she's exposed to a lot of germs. I feel like she'd be the one to get into juicing and making smoothies for immune health and the 'sexy' supplements like Moon Juice or whatever Gwyneth Paltrow is selling (but nobody’s sure if she really buys into them or if she’s just trying to get a sponsorship). Emma has a system for any kind of normal illness that doesn't completely knock her on her ass and that is to take a very hot bath with peppermint and eucalyptus bath salts and drink a hot toddy while she's in there. (Just the one, she doesn't want to drown!)

Jacob - This guy gets the dreaded Man Cold and is the sickest person who has ever lived. He doesn't get sick often because he's fairly health conscious, but he's absolutely pathetic and mopey about it when he does. He wants to be babied because his perfect male specimen of a body and extensive supplement regimen have betrayed him. He hates going to the doctor and puts it off until someone makes him go. Kaitlyn brings him soup and yells at him (affectionately) to stop being pathetic. He drinks a ton of Gatorade when he's sick (always Cool Blue flavor).

Kaitlyn - Look, Kaitlyn's Asian and her family was wearing masks during cold and flu season long before it was cool. She doesn't totally buy into the traditional Chinese medicine stuff but she does believe in the healing power of food that's spicy as fuck, especially if she's having sinus issues. She's also a fan of long, hot baths or showers, chicken soup with a ton of garlic, drinking a bunch of tea with lemon and ginger, the sauna at the gym, exercising even if she doesn't feel like it, hot yoga, and acupuncture. If that doesn't knock it out, she's not too stubborn to go to the doctor, people like that (who have insurance but don’t use it) drive her crazy (Jacob!).

Abi - If something is going around, Abi just knows she's going to get it. She’s a worrier and a bit of a catastrophizer when she does get sick. She's a hand sanitizer addict, she's got those cute sparkly holders from Bath & Body Works (but she uses the Halloween ones all year). She's good about letting herself take time to rest and get her strength back after an illness though. She likes to catch up on trash TV while she's recuperating. She also gets allergy shots because her environmental allergies are insane. She uses a neti pot or saline spray often to ward off sinus infections.

Ryan - Our stoic boy is stoic. Ryan takes all the necessary precautions to not get sick, he's kind of an obsessive hand-washer for sensory reasons anyway, but when he does, he follows doctors' recommendations to the letter and rarely complains. He will typically muddle through like normal if he's not got something contagious, but if he has to take time off work or school, he doesn't really talk about it or look to be cared for, just holes up in his room alone trying to not spread it around--he is very conscientious. Ryan gets the occasional migraine and that's one thing he can't really muddle through. He has to be in a quiet, dark room to recover, with an ice pack on his head, a caffeinated beverage, and a guided meditation podcast.

Dylan - People love to make our boy a damsel in distress because he's a cute gay string bean that bad things happen to, but Dylan is pretty tough in the game (like, unrealistically tough at times). I tend to consider his amputee arc as main canon, so given the assumption that he doesn't die of sepsis after surviving werewolves, he's got to have a pretty robust immune system and probably doesn't get sick that often. He does have that whole under-react/overreact thing going on though (the air freshener lol), so I imagine that when he does get sick, he either just carries on until he physically can't anymore (he'd wear a mask and get vaccinated and all that good stuff, he's a scientist after all, but he’s bad about making sure he gets rest) OR he starts Googling his symptoms and getting paranoid, convinced he has some rare incurable disease (he doesn't). He also doesn't really like to slow down and let people take care of him but when they really insist, he not-so-secretly loves the attention, from his mom, his boyfriend, his roommate/bestie, whoever.

Nick - Nick turns into a slimy wet sex pest whenever he gets sick. No, I’m kidding. I think it’d be funny/ironic/unfortunate if chef Nick had kind of a sensitive digestive system. He will eat anything, especially if Jacob is eating it. But, alas, Jacob has an iron stomach and our poor Nicholas does not. So he gets a lot of tummy troubles from doing things like eating 20 year old snacks or trying to go head to head with Jacob and Kaitlyn in a spicy ramen challenge. Nick gets sick a regular amount with stuff like head colds and is just kind of middle of the road as far as how he handles it. He does however have a habit of making up untrue facts about Australia that he tells his coworkers and campers when no one has the internet available to fact check him and one of them is that a steaming mug of hot pickle juice is a favorite folk remedy for colds there.

Max - he doesn’t get sick often but he is highly accident-prone. Like, so accident-prone that his family has started calling them ‘Maxidents’ when he has a major mishap. He routinely falls off ladders, gets attacked by migratory waterfowl, trips while trying to carry more groceries than he should into the apartment, etc. Max is luckily a very good patient because he has a lot of practice. He also has a lot of ice packs in the freezer at all times.

Laura - she gets onto Max about being careful, getting enough sleep, eating healthy, etc, but Laura is a do as I say, not as I do kinda gal. She does try to be healthy and active but she’s really busy (busier than ever post-canon because she thinks she can outrun trauma if she never slows down long enough to think about it). When Laura gets sick she gets Leslie Knope sick.

Max has to put her in bed and take care of her because she will not admit she needs it until she is practically on death’s door.

[yiiiikesmish]

I'm literally going to die, Tumblr ate my bon analysis essay post (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)(⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

Fuck it I'm not doing all that again here's a summary

Something something, weird that ppl tend to prefer his bitchy "original" personality even though he never actually gets to show it. Funnily enough, with other characters (eg. Freddy) it's the other way around.

Smth smth, I do like bon a lot and I really enjoy his silly stupid moments, (esp the camp arc). I think separating him from those really misunderstands the character or smth (I haven't gotten to that part).

Smth smth both the silly stupid version of himself (I'm counting the uwu boy parts) and the mean bitch version can easily coexist together.

Smth smth, my headcanon is that the mean part of him is compulsory behavior bc it's what ppl expect him to be like (esp seen with his dad), smth smth he can't keep an honest relationship w others bc it implies going thru a process of debating what his "true" feelings are for each person, and that is tiring as fuck. This explicitly happened w Bonnie, and I hc that it also happened when he saw toddy again, the stress is real, and makes him do stupid decisions. Smth smth, when he truly realizes his feelings for the others, he goes up and apologizes for his behavior, they seem chill with him, and he gets to let himself loosen up a little bit, making him sillier.

Sorry if this sounds too aggressive or condescending or whatever, id like to think that I was handing it better on the essay but idk.

I'm leaving some screenshots of my progress bc i was afraid this would happen but I'm too tired to write it all up again

These are missing the intro but, oh well

This whole mess was bc of this fuckinh image

My favorite drink

Writing this down so the secret doesn't die with me. Many years ago I was in my favorite bar, The Detention Room. It is, true to it's name, a cigar bar in a former detention room of an early 20th century highschool that had been transformed into a hotel. Different rooms had different themes, and The Detention Room was perfect for an anxious animal like me. In total, it has enough seating for maaaybe a half dozen people at most. Its dimly lit, extremely moody, the colors are all muted, and has a really cute little woodstove salvaged from a boat. This is where I invented the Honey Spike on an extremely cold snowy winter evening.

I'd come here for a date with a friend, and I arrived early, and without a jacket. Just utterly shivering in the distance from the car to here. I show up and the fire in the stove and sweet smell of cigar smoke instantly had me wanting a hot drink. I came here for beer but that cold had woken up something in me. The two hot drinks I know are the Hot Toddy and the Hot Brick. Both are...well they're okay, but I'm very much an Old Fashioned gal, and I for better or worse wanted an Old Fashioned, but warm. Being it was winter my brain made the connection of orange spice tea, and by the time I sat down at the bar, I already had the recipe in mind. There was one other person in there besides the bartender. I ordered a moontrance cigar, opened my mouth, and asked for this drink. The guy sitting nearby heard me order, and he immediately asked for the same drink. When my friend arrived, he ordered it as well and over the course of the evening as people filtered in and out the drink eventually found its way onto a little specials blackboard for the evening. At the time, it had no name, so I just called it a sweet toddy. Now, I love to make this anytime it snows, and I try to keep a stock of Pendleton to make it when it gets extra cold. I've named it the Honey Spike. Enjoy.

Honey Spike

1.25 oz honey syrup

1 round orange slice

Boiling Water

1.5 oz Pendleton Whiskey

Garnish: 1 Cinnamon Stick

Add syrup, orange slice, and whiskey into an Irish Coffee mug. Top off with boiling water and a cinnamon stick. Serve with a wood fire.

Testing scenes 🕯💜🤍 (and also me yapping (wayyy too much) under the cut) (you've been warned)

Fixing the arc camp has proven to be harder than I thought,,, it's really damn hard to write 5 parallel stories at the same time in comic(?) Format, bc in the series it's a bit of each group per chapter (except the funtimes part but fuck them)

My idea is to just. Finish each group story and tie them up in the end. Shape of you time and they sing so bad cami dies. But since I want to give them more to do I confuse myself,,,, and also owynn didn't exist so I have to stick him somewhere, and also eak and ttrap do smth else, and also Margo is a whole thing

And Im going crazy BUT IM ENJOYING THE CRAZY. It's like suffering with math but instead of numbers it's just text and I do it for fun bc crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me into a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. The rats drove me crazy.

So. What are you seeing in the drawings?? Those orange/red blobs are fire thingies, and the bighead kids are around them :3

- bonnie, freddy, ann, aiden (who would be looking away from the fire lol)

- Meg, joy, bon and spring (but they're not by the fire)

- The nightmares (+ toddy)

' And then probably the funtimes + pup and mai

Where golden? Well with his dad + other rich parents + jeffrey and he's looking sadly bc damn. He wants to be there :( or maybe be just really likes looking at fire and wants to be closer who knows

is jeffrey who lets her go with her friendos !!!¡! Hoorrray jeffrey. Also gives him the lighter

Then golden fucking dies

And jeffrey is on a date with vincent :)) bc he can and he wants and I want them to, too

And . And this is where i go crazy. Crazy? I was crazy once

Bc yes this is about golden BUT ALSO it IS jeffrey's big moment as fucking well. The fire both from the lighter and the candle representing literally how he's warming up to the idea of forming actual, meaningful relationships with people. He WORRIES so he starts to CARE which means he starts to DO .

HE STOPS BEING A BITCHHHH AND WE LOVE THAT FOR HIM AND IIIII AMMMM GOING CRAZY. oh also Golden in that time decides to escape once they get back home but that will be a s2 problem that def wont develop Golden's father and jeffrey a bit more and realize how fucked up they actually are (maybe). And def wont end with golden left as homeless and pathetic for the joke I PROMISE I DOOOOOOOO

Okay. So. Um. The fire represents the want to have relationships (any type). Golden longs for fire (a family) Jeffrey lights it for him (show that maybe he can give him one);

but Jeffrey is the one asking for a deeper relationship to Vincent represented throught a candle (and asking for/having a date), or smth like that. Needs more work. Maybe. What matters is that Jeffrey wants more *with* vin (not of, with) while vincent thinks he overstepped wayyy to much and is in this weird attempt to gain control over it by sabotaging himself. The fire IS THERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM BUT IT WILL DIE IF HE WAITS TOO LONG OR IF HE BLOWS IT .. AAAAAGHHHHHHHHH. The chance is there and he has to take it. And yes Golden takes the lighter aka golden acepts the chance while vin... lets it drip..lets the wax burn him, but he will run out of time

Propaganda for Manglica:

Rivals to lovers WLW! Girls who want to defeat each other because they have no better way to deal with their feelings than by constantly picking fights! Girls who would rather die than confess they actually like each other because that means admitting weakness and admitting weakness means defeat!!!

Also I find the idea of Meg stealing her brother's crush to be really funny. That might just be me.

Propaganda for Toddoy:

girl who has had to build a mean personality to protect her weak ego from criticism and who has had to tear down others to prop herself up meets girl who seems to be an infinite barrel of kindness. but toddy has kindness inside, too, just like joy has sourness inside. toddy secretely admires joy's ability, or rather her vulnerability, to open her heart to anyone while joy secretely admires how toddy stands up for herself regardless of how anyone else feels. also THE CHRISTMAS SPECIAL. joy baked toddy cookies and toddy flustered. thats the end (Submitted by @chocottang).
