GOOD AFTERNOON???

[skuntank]

Gardenia is one of those characters I've had in my head for such a long time and interpreted her in such a specific way that how I see other people interpret her, both fandom AND canon tbh, throws me off so hard

She's so butch to me. Always has been. And over time as she's had more canon appearances in things, like pokemas, they have only pushed her more into feminine territory (there is nothing inherently wrong with this.)

Imo it feels like such a mishandling of her specific character bc it's so the opposite of how I initially (and still do) read her.

If I see fanart of her in a pretty sundress, it absolutely floors me. Like as in. "Oh that's right. I'm literally the only person that sees her as super butch. I am the minority in this." This is one of those times where I'm just blatantly like ALL YALL ARE WRONG. NONE OF YOU KNOW HOW TO HANDLE HER PROPERLY. I AM THE CORRECT ONE IN THIS!!!! and I WILL die on this hill

Literally how tf is butch Gardenia not the fanon consensus for her LOOK AT HER.

I’m a sweet, gentle girl who likes exploring around the forest. I enjoy being cuddled and playing in the ocean too. Adventures are my favorite thing, but I’m very scared of loud noises, so you might have to hold me during thunderstorms…

describe your muse on anon and my muse will say if they would date them or not

Gardenia would date you! Enthusiastically! How do you feel about grass types? Hiking? Holding hands? Questionable lesbian fashion, including, but not limited to: cargo shorts, ponchos, and whack ass bobs? Though, she can be a little loud when she gets excited. Is that okay? She can be more mindful of it.

Whew, I've gotten a lot of suggestions for orange Pokemon characters! With a franchise as massive as Pokemon you'd think it'd be easier to find at least one decisively orange character, huh?

Once again I think I'll leave it to the people! Here is every character that was suggested to me, and the three most voted will be queued!

A flower for my flower (my rose with vicious thorns 🥰 🥀)

🥰 if you were a flower, I'd say you're a gardenia! Beautiful, magnificent, smell like pure love, blooming with unrestricted confidence, and my all time favorite flower!

“Helloooo, Sunny!! It’s been a while since I talked to you. Or.. anyone, really.. ☆”

“Are you having a good day? Even if you aren’t, I wanted to give you something-“

“It’s one of Basil’s!! Sometimes, if you’re having a bad day… it’s nice to think about the good times you’ve had!!”

“Well, that’s all for now!! Take care— ♪”

( @opal-gardenias-secretaskblogwoah )

[autumnalarchives]

ooooh 7 for as many people as you feel like

"7.) What is your oc's most defining physical trait?"

Gonna try to answer for some ocs that I don't talk about a lot:

Rosa Escobar Moniz Silva (Through Thick and Thin): Her smile! She has a big, bright smile that people almost immediately notice when they see her because she's a gal who loves to smile.

Benjamin (Benjie) Cooper (Through Thick and Thin): His piercings! He has a lot, which is especially notable because he's a satyr and satyrs tend to steer away from body modifications like that.

Niron Gardenia (Starclove): Most people immediately note their generally blank face, but if they don't notice that, they notice the odd claw scar across their muzzle.

Nyx Wisteria (Starclove): Likely their teeth! Two of their canines are longer than average, which makes them visible even when their mouth is closed.

Kimon Kaake (Hometown Blues): Xeir freckles! Kimon has a lot of freckles, especially on xeir face.

Maitho Asker (Uprooted Morals): Her bright green eyes in contrast to her jet black hair.

Could you write a prompt about Stella and Brandon talking after the mess with Mitzi? Maybe giving us your own take about what happened there

Three words

Set after season 4 episode 13

“I miss you.”

Three words. The only ones they had directed at each other since they had sat down at the restaurant. Well, he at Stella, at least. Yes, they’d given the waiter their respective orders, but that didn’t count, especially because the little they’d eaten they had done so while avoiding the other’s gaze. Stella was doing most of the avoiding, while Brandon actively tried to meet her eyes.

“Should we have dessert? I’m not that hungry.” She replied instead, taking back the menu and practically hiding behind it.

Brandon sighed. He had thought that after their latest fight with the wizards things would be easier between them. He was wrong.

“Whatever you want, Stel. I know they make that ice cream you like …”

“I guess I’ll have a coffee to go. Tomorrow I’ve gotta get up early for work.” She closed the menu and opened her bag to look for her purse.

That bad, eh? Stella hated getting up early, especially for work.

“Okay.” He called the waiter and ordered two coffees to go, together with the bill. “I’ve got it, don’t worry.” Brandon left some money on the table and got up, taking his jacket.

“Thanks.” She got up too and closed her purse back again.

The waiter reached them and handed them their cups, then said goodbye with a smile. He looked pretty cute, not that Stella cared. Lately she never even saw guys. That little game she and Brandon played with them counting how many people flirted with them? Forgotten. Stupid game. Maybe it was because of it that Brandon had felt entitled to kiss Mitzi. Still, he kept repeating he hadn’t. Yeah, liar.

“Are you cold?”

“No.”

“Is the coffee good?”

“Yes.” She hadn’t touched it yet.

“Did you finish painting the apartment?”

“Yes.”

He asked her simple questions, hoping that she’d offer something more than her yeses and noes, but she wouldn’t, so he stopped walking, and she noticed only after four or five steps. Then she stopped too. Good. That was good, right?

“Are we done?”

Three words, once again voiced by Brandon, who had thrown his coffee in the nearest bin and was clutching his jacket in both hands.

Stella turned around and looked at him.

“You’re gonna ruin that.”

“I don’t care.” He replied, taking a couple of steps to get closer to her.

“I should go.” She said, still avoiding his gaze.

“Please, Stella.” He offered her his hand, which she didn’t take. “Why did you come if you can’t even look at me?”

“I don’t know.” Only then she looked at him, really looked at him. It was a mistake, now he could see her watery eyes.

Brandon’s eyes grew bigger and, with another step, he had her in his arms, as she started sobbing in his chest. Stella's cup fell on the ground, Brandon's jacket too, but neither stopped to retrieve them.

“Please, don’t cry.” He whispered in her hair, holding her close. He had missed her body, her scent, the feeling of her in his arms, but not her tears. He hated seeing her cry.

“Do you hate me?”

“Hate you?” He looked down at her. “Do you hate me?”

It took her a couple of seconds to answer. “I thought I did.” She replied, sincere. “But I don’t. I … I came here cause I wanted to hear your version. I … I only know Mitzi’s.”

“Mitzi talked to you?”

Stella nodded, wiping away the tears with a napkin she had conjured from the nothing. “She came by the shop the other day with her friends. She was saying how good of a kisser you are …” She wasn’t talking directly to Stella, but she was sure she’d done it on purpose, she knew she was listening.

“I never kissed her. I swear it.” He gently took her face in his hands. “She kissed me. She put her number in my phone. She made sure to always be wherever I was. I never asked her to. I never wanted her to. I promise, Stella. I don’t care for her.”

“But … that kiss … it seemed that …”

“I was too stunned to react immediately. But I didn’t kiss her back. I promise. I swear. You’re the only one, Stella. You’ve always been.”

Stella looked at him, at his beautiful big brown eyes she had never seen that sorry, that sad and scared. And it was all her fault. She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him like her life depended on it. Maybe it did. She kissed him and kissed him, until she needed to come up for air.

Brandon was breathless too, his cheeks red, his eyes hopeful.

“I am sorry.” She said. “It’s like you said. I … I jump to conclusions. I saw her in your arms, and I lost it. I thought you didn’t like me anymore.”

“That’s right. I don’t like you.” He interrupted her, and Stella’s eyes filled with fear and sorrow.

“But …” She asked, with trembling lips.

Brandon took her hands in his. “I don’t like you, Stella. I love you.”

All it took for Stella’s demeanor to change from fearful to hopeful to utterly joyful were those three words. She kissed him again, smiling. “I hate you!” She exclaimed, while the contrary was written all over her face.

“Do you really?” Brandon beamed, holding her close.

“No, not really.” Stella stroked his cheeks with her hands. “I love you.”

🤡 - What’s something dumb they’re embarrassed about? ( for kahili and arlo! )

🎨 - What’s their favorite color? ( for gardenia and brier! )

miscellaneous ask meme

🤡 Why is she so pale? Why can't she tan? She doesn't even freckle! It's like the sun reflects off her skin and that's it. Self tanners look orange and fake and she's made that mistake. She's doomed to look like this.

🤡 This poor man. Existence is awkwardness. The biggest (or smallest) one are his feet. Whyyyyy are they so small? Tiny, dainty footed man! They're normal. They're average. He's just weird.

🎨 Miss Vivid Plant Master herself! She likes green, go figure. Bright, healthy, grass green.

🎨 Sweet Brier likes blue. Vibrant, brilliant, sky blue. Smoky emerald green is a close second.

Eorzea has been through its fair share of 'cataclysmic' events - from the Seventh Umbral Calamity to the Final Days. How did your character cope with these apocalypses? Might their circumstances have been different if they were close to or further away from the trauma?

The Lily was as far away from either calamity as she could be. During the Seventh Umbral she was still in Hingashi, and during the Final Days she was in Eorzea still, where it had not spread as radically. She was only marginally close to either, so it only became a talking point with other individuals. If she had encountered them, it probably would have went as well as her losing her princess. And would have ended with her running as far away as she could, again. She does enjoy occasionally exploring the ruins of Dalamud however. So if that never happened she would just be out of experiencing Allagan ruins.

Others below the cut.

The Archeologist has survived through several Umbral calamities by the present day. And she responded each time with the same determination to save as many people as she could... With little regard to her own life. She was in stasis with the Fourth Umbral Calamity that destroyed the Empire of Allag, missing the potential deaths of her comrades and friends. So when she awoke, she tried to find them to little avail. The calamities pose little worry to her, one of her deaths and aether regenerations happened during the sixth umbral calamity as she was saving people.

A'tyla and Yasha, both members of the now defunct Scions, were assisting the Loporrits during most of the Final Days, and as such were spared most of the devestation. They both worried for their friends and family back on Etheirys however. They both survived the Seventh Calamity by pure chance of location and occupation, so they were doing their best to avert the Final Days as they could.

Benoit did what a pirate does best with world ending scenarios. He hid, bided his time until it was safe once more, then rejoined the broken world.

Tatiava wasn't in Eorzea when the Seventh happened, so she is unsure how she would react. When the Final Days started to happen Garlemald, she stuck close to Riol and with his encouragement, did not give in to the despair of her homeland being destroyed. She set her mind to working on making Garlemald safer for everyone until the Final Days were averted.

Lhei fought back against the various calamities the best way they know how, with science. They returned to Old Sharlayan for a time to help with finishing the Ragnarok. Being an Archon with considerable knowledge of how crystals store aether, they knew that they had a duty to fulfill, regardless on how they feel about their homeland.

Beatrice and Mai weren't in Eorzea for the major effects of the Seventh, but they were in Thavnair when the final days started. So they ran. They ran as far as they could, hopped on a ship leaving the island, and did not spare a look back.
