//open. int. rosie's diner - thanksgiving night

The day in-between their return from the ship and the thanksgiving dinner was a bit of a blur, of quarantine, reporting to their discovery and putting the goods and test kits away in a safe place, getting his shoulder looked at again by Tobias. He was pretty sure it'll be fine, a simple dislocation and aggravation, already told he wasn't to head outside again until full mobility was back. The restlessness will get to him sooner or later, but for now, he'd join in on the dinner and festivities, as much festivities they could have in their circumstances. He threw a sweater on, over the shoulder bandage, so no one would ask questions about it. It was a pretty nice set up to be honest, a little loud but full of sincerity from the girls. If they ignore the fact that they don't have much power and there's the undead outside these walls, Ash would say it looked like their typical thanksgiving celebrations at the diner. "Enjoying the food?" Ashton picked up the beer as he asked the figure that approached him, "seems like the diner really pulled out all the stops for this."

Apples of Avonlea (Anne & Marilla & Matthew)

For @jennyandvastraflint for the prompt 'apple picking'

Here you go, friend! I want to apologise in advance for the anti-math stance prevalent in the fic. That is not my opinion, I am completely blaming it on Anne. And Marilla and Matthew agree with me that algebra is lovely. Probably.

I hope you enjoy! Thank you for the prompt <3

Genre: Fluff

Warnings: None, but the complaints about math, I believe

It was October and the apple trees at Green Gables were hung full with the sweetest, reddest apples in all of Avonlea - that was if you asked one Anne Shirley Cuthbert. Miss Stacy had given an algebra lesson to be worked upon for the afternoon, but the sun was in the sky and Matthew was starting the picking season.

So Anne had begged and pleaded until Marilla had exclaimed "Then go with him, Anne, for Heaven's sake! You won't be able to concentrate on your lessons in either case!" and the girl had fled the kitchen not a second after.

Matthew was all too happy to have chatty, wiry Anne with him, who had a much easier time climbing up ladders and coming up with ideas to sweeten the work, like work songs to sing or birds to wave to that were retreating south for the winter.

When Marilla found them, Matthew was picking already fallen apples from the ground and Anne was prancing through a tree's canopy, pretending she was Princess Cordelia overseeing the orchards in her realm, donning apples to the commoners when filling her bag.

"Anne Shirley Cuthbert!" Marilla called in exasperation, hurrying closer fast as she could. "What are you doing!"

"Oh, Marilla!" Anne sighed, leaning from a branch at a dangerous angle to wave at her. "Isn't it just the loveliest day to go apple picking? Isn't autumn just the most splendid time in the year?"

"You get down right this minute!" Marilla ordered. "Matthew! Did you allow this?"

"I -" Matthew looked up, scratching his neck. "I didn't think it was an issue, having Anne on the ladder and me on the ground."

Admittedly, by the time he had finished his defence, Anne had climbed down to the ladder, almost twice her height lower than the canopy she had presently resided in.

"You should be ashamed!" Marilla fumed, cradling Anne against herself as soon as her feet touched the grass. "Both of you! I dread to think what could have happened."

"I am sorry, Marilla" Anne cried. "I did not mean to be bad, today, I promise! It just keeps happening against my deepest desires!"

"Well, this time, it is Matthew's fault more than yours, Anne" Marilla allowed. "He should have reminded you to stay on the ladder. And preferably not let you mount in the first place."

Matthew looked fittedly sheepish and Marilla signaled with a curt nod that all was forgiven.

"Dry your eyes, now, Anne." She stepped away from the girl. "Nothing bad has happened finally."

"Are you no longer angry with us, Marilla?" she asked, dabbing at her eyes with her apron.

"No, I am not angry" Marilla smiled.

"That's tremendous, Marilla" Anne rejoiced. "Because I got something for us!"

She pulled three perfect, round apples from her apron, holding them out to her family.

"These are the prettiest apples I could find" she said solemnly, handing one to Marilla and Matthew each. "And I hoped - I hoped -"

She heaved a sigh, overcome with such a deeply-felt emotion, she could not continue.

"Get your words out slowly, Anne" Marilla reminded her strictly but fondly. "There's no need to rush yourself."

Matthew in turn reached out a hand for Anne to hold and steady herself on, which she took gratefully. Anne nodded, breathing in and out once more before managing to go on.

"I hoped, no, I dreamed," she whispered, "we could eat them together now. The first apples of the season! We could have a little ceremony to greet autumn and celebrate the apple harvest. Can we do that, Marilla? Oh, please say, we can, Marilla! It would be terribly romantic!"

Not long ago, Marilla would have found such a notion silly. But she knew how much ceremonies and romantic moments meant to Anne, so she nodded her agreement.

"We can have a ceremony and then you can come back with me and do your algebra while Matthew finishes up here" she decided.

"Oh, Marilla!" Anne whined. "How can you speak of algebra now, when we are standing underneath the most resplendent apple tree? Algebra is not romantic at all!"

"Hush now" Marilla said. "I agreed to your ceremony, so quit complaining."

Immediately, Anne turned all serious and festive.

"We should hold our apples close to each other in the middle" she ordered and Marilla and Matthew followed her lead. "And then we think very hard of the beauty of autumn and how grateful we are the tree is carrying so many delicious apples and how good it is to live in a world where you can go apple picking in Avonlea at Green Gables."

"And-" Matthew started shyly but when Anne nodded encouragingly, he continued: "And we're very grateful too, that we have an Anne at Green Gables. Who can pick many apples. And - and enjoy autumn. With us."

He clapped his mouth shut and Anne squirmed with happiness.

"Matthew!" she beamed. "Thank you! That was beautiful!"

"And now?" Marilla asked and Anne, very carefully, tapped her apple against Matthew's and Marilla's.

"Now, we eat the apples" she said.

The all dug in and Anne's face contorted in utter bliss.

"Matthew" she whispered. "This is the best apple, I have ever had. Your trees are miraculous!"

"They will make for a fine apple crumble" Marilla agreed, gingerly licking apple juice from her fingers. "Good work, Matthew!"

Anne's eyes grew wide.

"Apple crumble?" she echoed devoutly.

"I'll teach you the recipe" Marilla promised. "But come on now. You have work to do in the kitchen, and so do I."

Anne nodded wistfully. She bid goodbye to Matthew and followed Marilla willingly enough.

"You know what, Marilla?" she said, while they were walking home through the fading evening sun, "After eating an apple like that, not even algebra can scare me."

Thanks for reading! Shut up, Anne, algebra is very romantic <3

Happy Holidays to them (Thanksgiving edition)

Btw this is also a sequel to that one Baffy post I made once (If you know you know)

[starryjkoo]

Dispatch said documentary, we know there’s a travel show (it sounded like a one-off thing but you never know), apparently JKs dancers are in Tokyo(?), MAMA is on the 28th/29th but I thought JK was confirmed not to perform + Jikook are not on the performance list, Jimin has been actively filming a MV the past couple of days, apparently some industry people tweeted something big is coming next week…

Seriously, this trip could be any and everything. But it’s also just so surreal to see Jikook going to Tokyo randomly together, especially when there’s not much time left before enlistment. It’s been so long since we’ve seen two members together at the airport that it made me surprisingly emotional… When Jihope both went to fashion week they flew apart, when JM went to Lolla he flew a few days after JH, when JM went to NY he flew a day after JK... There have been all these near misses even when they were going for similar reasons and same places so I’m just glad we got to see them together. And I hope it means they’re doing something as a unit, even if it’s just JM featuring on JKs documentary while working on his own things in Tokyo.

No matter how this plays out, it’s just such a treat to see them together and going to a place that has so much meaning to them right before enlistment, and I hope they get to have fun hanging out in-between whatever else! I would kill for Jikook to have turned their travel show into a series so that’s where all my hopes are going, but there might be more to all of this too (they’ve seriously been working nonstop making the most of every minute they have left to make sure ARMYs are left with plenty of content). I’m just going to watch and enjoy any crumbs tossed our way and eagerly await whatever content they’re working on as individuals or as a duo (the rumors of JMs last MV recording location though 😵‍💫). I realllly hope we get some more duo content on top of their individual stuff though and I’m going to be greedy and beg for a live or a selca or a TikTok if this isn’t going to be a variety show. But honestly just the airport pics will keep me sustained for a long time 😫
