Brad thinks he’s everything. Sun-kissed skin that he just wants to touch, to feel. Freckles speckling his barren shoulders; all Brad can seem to think about is kissing each and every one. Scars he wishes he could trace his fingers along. Long, golden curls cascading over his shoulders, shifting as he pulls his hair into a high ponytail, muscles flexing and moving beneath his skin. He’s ankle-deep in the water. Lloyd is everything.

He must feel Brad’s gaze on him because he turns. Smiles his beautiful, bright grin and says “Staring again, are we?” And all Brad can seem to think about is kissing him. So maybe he’s a little tipsy, but even if he weren’t? Would he not feel the same? Lloyd’s emerald eyes shimmer, dark as they survey Brad. He hums. Takes a few steps through the sand toward Brad and as he get closer, Brad finds he’s a little dizzy. Drunk-dazed on Lloyd, a little bit high on life. On the goodness of the world around them. “Close your mouth, babe,” Lloyd says. He presses his fingers to the bottom of Brad’s chin, closing his mouth for him. “You’ll catch flies.” Brad flushes, and forces himself to look away. “I know I’m hot, but seriously,” Lloyd says, turning away. “You’re absurd.” Brad unwraps the towel from around his now-dry shoulders and whacks him with it in response. They were swimming in the lake, but as the sun sets and the visibility’s getting poor, they’re dancing on the sand instead. Lloyd laughs. “Rude,” he says, turning back to Brad. Brad finds himself breathless, just by looking at him. The sun setting on the water before them gives Lloyd a halo of sorts, illuminating him prettily. “You’re incredible,” Brad whispers, before he can stop himself. Lloyd gives him a look. “Quit being so gay.” He walks back to Brad. Takes the towel from his hand and wraps it again around Brad’s shoulders. He gives Brad a fond look, one that has Brad stammering and spluttering. He wishes he could say something smooth. Something sort of cheesy, but he finds his mind blank, unable to produce thoughts with Lloyd oh, so close. “Come on, let’s start the fire.” Lloyd walks off, headed toward the fire pit a few meters up the sand. Brad stumbles after him.

The cicadas have started screaming, filling the night sky with their not-so-harmonious cries. The sun has fully dipped beneath the horizon. The lamps up at the cabin turn on, and the little solar-powered lights stuck in the ground a few weeks ago illuminate the path from the beach, through the woods, to the house. Lloyd kneels before a pile of logs, match in hand, as he strikes the strip on the side of the matchbox until it ignites. Then, he drops it into the logs, prodding the kindling with it. Slowly, the flame grows. “I’m glad it isn’t windy,” Lloyd says. “We won’t have to worry so much about smoke in our eyes.” Brad nods. “Yeah.” He takes a seat in one of the chairs settled into the sand. Lloyd takes his own lawn chair and moves it right up next to Brad’s, so the arms are overlapping. Lloyd plops into his chair, taking the blanket from the back of the chair and wrapping it around them both, snuggling into Brad’s side. “What’s up with you today?” Lloyd asks, pulling away slightly to eye Brad’s face. “You’re so …” He waves a hand. “You know.” Brad looks at him. At the side of his face illuminated by the fire. Sharp eyes and soft cheeks. A few curls have fallen from his ponytail, framing his face prettily. “I’m in love with you,” Brad whispers. “That’s what’s up.” Brad can’t help himself. He reaches out. Tucks the curls behind Lloyd’s ear as his cheeks turn pink. “You’re just … you’re incredible, Lloyd.” “And you’re a tipsy sap,” Lloyd laughs. “Come on, don’t be so mushy gushy.” “Sorry.” And he means it. “It’s hard not to be.” Lloyd’s eyes widen. He laughs brightly, giving Brad a shove. “Seriously. You’re so cheesy.” Brad shrugs. It’s hard to feel bad for it when he’s just so … “Come on! Quit looking at me like that!” Lloyd takes Brad’s face in his hands, squeezing his cheeks. “You’re too cheesy. How do I turn off the cheesy?” “Not possible,” Brad manages to say, through his squished mouth. “I love you.” Lloyd wrinkles his nose. “Ick,” he says. But he smacks a kiss on Brad’s mouth. “I love you, too.” And turns back to the fire, smiling as a plume of flames reaches toward the sky. Smoke curls from the tip, fortunately blowing up, not in either of their faces. Brad can’t seem to look away, so Lloyd sighs, turns back to him, and kisses him properly. He cups Brad’s jaw, pressing their lips together sweetly. Brad melts, cupping the back of Lloyd’s neck, fiddling with a curl. “There,” Lloyd says. “Happy?” “When I’m with you?” Brad smiles. “Always.”

GO GO GO

Hey everyone! A few days are left before the very first prompt! (Sorry I couldn't get to announce it sooner, some things came up.) It starts on August 1, the official air date of the episode ever, Double Trouble! You can post entries and tag #GreenflowerWeek2024 ! (o´∀`o)

The prompts were chosen by what was most voted on, in order!

Listing it here anyway just in case:

August 1: Childhood/Present/Future

August 2: Hero/Villain

August 3: Stars/Flowers

August 4: Healing/Hurt

August 5: Punks/Nerds

August 6: Comicbooks/Candies

August 7: Free Day

You don't necessarily have to follow these prompts! If you do, it's completely up for interpretation how you want to use them! You can even use this prompt list after the week itself! Even better if it's in the tag for others to see! Don't stress and have fun! (ノ*°▽°*)

I do have a poll for anyone who wants to participate! It will be under the cut to keep this post shorter if reblogged!

I was thinking it'd be fun to turn this community week into some kind of public zine! My friends and I will format pieces into a scrapbook/photo album aesthetic with everyone's art being polaroids on the pages, of course with proper credit! (Written works can be added too if any are created!)

It will look something like this:

Lovely art belongs to my friends @twigs-sprigs and @marsipain! It's not the best draft but I hope you see the vision!

This is just an interest check so I just want to figure out if some people are down for the idea before giving out too many details that could muddle up the post ( ´ ▽ ` ) ! If this does go underway, you can choose not to display your art at all if that's what you'd prefer!

What do you all think?

Feel free to send an ask if you have any!

Thank you so much for reading this far and have a nice day :)

The faux succulents would make a great gift for a birthday or a houswarming and will fit in almost any room in the house, office or outdoors. The succulents are a blend of plastic and fabric.

for the greenflower prompts: hydrangea... set in the rain!

Brad is caught in the rain often. Too often, to be honest. How he keeps forgetting his umbrella is beyond him. How Lloyd keeps remembering is, well, standard. Not really that impressive. Brad tells him this. Lloyd laughs. “‘Scuse you,” he says. “I’ll kick you out of my umbrella.” “Sure.” Brad snuggles closer, looping his arm through Lloyd’s. “Here, you’re holding it too low.” Brad takes the umbrella from him as Lloyd grumbles something about trees and lampposts. He holds it up a bit, so it no longer hits him in the head, and Lloyd smiles, pecking his cheek. The streets are nearly empty. It’s late, and they’re on the way back from a show. It was a good show, Brad thought. Lloyd’s been a bit more critical. They walk in a comfortable silence, only the rain tip-tapping on the umbrella, the occasional gust of wind. A rather strong one takes Brad by surprise, yanking the umbrella from his hand and sending it flying down the street. The silence suddenly grows tense. “Well?” Lloyd says. “Go get it.” Brad laughs, but the expression on Lloyd’s face tells him he isn’t amused. “Oh, I’ll buy you a new one,” Brad says, laughing. He tugs Lloyd to an overhang, brushing the wet curls from his face. And Lloyd laughs. Laughs his beautiful laugh. “You butthead!” he says. “I loved that umbrella!” “Why? Because it was green?” Brad says. “Oh, shut up.” Lloyd giggles. In response, Brad says “Let’s make a run for it.” And, at once, they run into the rain, laughing as they do. They end up soaked, by the time they reach their apartment. Brad pauses, grabbing Lloyd’s hand and pulling him out into the rain once more before they go inside. “Hey!” Lloyd laughs. “We’re right there!” “Sorry,” Brad says, smiling. And he leans down and kisses him. The rain beats against his back, and he’s pretty sure he can hear thunder rumbling in the distance, but he wouldn’t have it any other way.
