New years eve with bf!skz 💕

Im literally drunk while I'm writing so if you see typos... No you didn't 😃

Also check out my masterlist!!

Channie

You and your favourite man, aka Channie were celebrating with both your families in a fancy restaurant. It was ever so heartwarming to see both families getting along. His mom, dad, brother, sister and his dog were so kind to you. Your family loved him and his family. Despite the biting cold outside, it was so cozy and warm inside. You truly couldn't ask for anything else. After dinner, that ended around 10:30, both families went their separate ways and you and chan went out for a few more drinks. After a bit more chattering and basking in each other's love, you both made your way to the big party outside.

The countdown started, your heart thumped as you held your lover's hand knowing very well you were gonna spend the rest of your life with him.

5...!

1...!!!!

Happy new year!!!!

The crowd roared and so did the both of you. And before you knew it, chan had pulled you in to a kiss. His big hands ever so warm and soothing cupped your cheeks. Even though you were caught off guard, you kissed back. He broke the kiss, connecting your foreheads soon after. "Happy new year, my love..." You giggled. "Happy new year to you too~" and in a flash, chan had gotten down on one knee, "I know it's sudden but... I love you, Y/N. I want to spend the rest of my life with you..." He reached for his pocket, his eyes still on yours, before he pulled out a box revealing two beautiful rings, "will you marry me, Y/N(full name)?"

Tears trickled down your cheeks, you gasped, hiding your mouth with your hands, "Yes!!! Yes I will marry you!!! I love you so much too, Channie!!" You cried out. The crowd near you cheered. Chan got up, taking off your mitten and sliding the ring on your finger and you did the same in return while crying your eyes out. He pulled you in to a kiss, holding you tightly with no intentions of letting go. You wrapped your arms around his neck and kissed him back with much love....

Lino

Both of you being the homebody you were, decided to stay in for the new years eve. You both had come home from your respective homes the day before and you wanted nothing more than to spend the time together with each other. In each other's arms, cuddling with your cats (yes he brought sooni, doongi and dori for the meantime). It was the perfect thing.

You both cuddled up in the couch, the three kitties between the two of you napping while you and Minho cuddled. You guys were watching a movie until an alarm went off in his phone. "That alarm for 5 minutes to new years again hm?" You giggled. "What? Can't a man be excited?" He pouted, his ears turning a bit red. "Nuh-uh! No shame at all!"

He put on the news channel. The cats, obviously knowing the mood, got up and laid down on their beds beside the couch. You both scooted in closer, both giggling at the cats' ability to read the room. Soon the countdown started.

"Happy new year!!!" The crowd roared through the TV. Both of you looked at each other with a loving gaze, slowly inching closer into a soft kiss. "Happy new year kitty~" you rubbed your noses together, "heh... Happy new year, you brat." He chuckled. Soon he showered you with a million kisses, something he does when he's super excited. His ears redder than ever. He nuzzled into the crook of your neck, sniffing in your scent, "I love you so much, Y/N... I don't think I've ever felt something so strong and deep for anyone else before... Sometimes... Sometimes it's so scary..." He admitted. You were in awe to see the depth of his love. "Don't be scared, my love... I love you so much too... I'm so glad I found you that night 3 years ago... You're the best thing that happened to me... I'll be forever grateful to fate to have pulled us close together like this..." You scratched his head softly, patting his back as you whispered sweet nothings in his ear. Both of your hearts thumping loud enough to hear. Truly, this was the best moment you could ask for.

Binnie

After having spent the Christmas at your parents', you and Changbin decided to celebrate new years at his. It always got you in awe to see his beautiful home, his parents ever so welcoming. All of you were out in the backyard with a big bonfire. Sitting around the fire chatting while roasting marshmallows while Changbin grilled the meat a little further. You excused yourself to go join him, placing a soft kiss on his cheek before leaning on him. "Are you having fun, honey?" he asked, cutting out a small bite sized piece of meat and blowing on it to cool it down a bit. "Mhm! I really like your family~!" you giggled before he put the piece of meat in your mouth with a big smile on his face. "Mm~ delicious!" "Like it?" "Mhm!"

After swallowing the meat, he placed a kiss on your lips. Your heart fluttered from the warmth. You felt so happy in this moment. You helped him grill the meat and he put his arm around you, grilling with the other as he pulled you close making you giggle again. "Acting like a married couple already, huh?" his sister chimed in from the back making both of you flinch. "Yah! Noona! Let us have our moment." he pouted while you and his sister laughed. "Okay okay you go be lovey but we're having the countdown soon. Maybe save the romance for after that?" she chuckled.

During the countdown all of you gathered, counting down together.

Happy new year!!

The fireworks went off as you all gave each other a hug. One of the workers brought out a box of fireworks. It was the first time you did something like this on new years so it was a huge thrill for you. Burning sparklers, laughing together. You video called your family and wished them. All of you stayed up the whole night drinking and eating and chattering. It all felt like a magical moment. Something you'd never forget.

Hyunnie

After having spent a hectic week at your respective families, you found yourself drained. But you had to keep up cuz you had a date planned with your lover and there's no way you would let the date go. So putting on your best clothes and the best smile you came down to the living room. Hyunjin, who was sitting on the couch, looked up at you. His jaw dropping. "Oh baby you look drop dead gorgeous..." he mumbled, loud enough for you to hear. You giggled at his compliment, "says the most handsome man to ever exist~" you came closer to him, wrapping your arms around him and giving him a soft kiss on the lips.

The two of you went to a fancy restaurant, eating and chattering. Everything was fine until... You felt your stomach churn. A sharp pain in your abdomen. You didn't wanna say anything and end up ruining the mood but your face showed obvious signs of discomfort. Hyunjin looked at you worried, "Hey... You okay love?" he reached for your head, concern painted all over his face. "Yeah, I'm okay... just need to use the restroom." "Mm.. okay" Just as you got up, your vision went dark, the last thing you heard was your lover yelling out your name in a panic and when you woke up, you saw an extremely worried, red eyed Hyunjin. He looked like he had cried a lot. Having gained consciousness, you realized you had passed out from stress and lack of sleep. Hyunjin quietly drove the two of you home. "I'm... I'm really sorry, Hyunnie..." you mumbled. You felt your eyes well up with tears thinking you ruined everything. Hyunjin placed a hand on your thigh, rubbing it gently, "Don't be sorry, babe. You should've told me if you were sick. I would've happily stayed in with you." he wasn't mad, he was worried. "I just... I didn't wanna ruin things... You've been planning this date for ages after all.." "Babe! No date is more important to me than your health! I thought you knew that!" you flinched at his outburst, the welling up tears now streaming down your face. "Fuck... Baby... I'm... I'm so sorry I didn't mean to yell... What I'm trying to say is, I would rather you tell me you're sick and stay in than go with my plans and hurt yourself. Do you realize how scared I was?" You nodded, knowing you could've just told him. So why didn't you? "I know... I'm sorry I scared you babe." The rest of the ride was pretty quiet. You got home and Hyunjin asked you to wait in the living room. A while later he came back holding a set of matching pajamas, a big smile on his face. "I've always wanted to do this. I saved this for tomorrow but well... I just got the chance today!" The both of freshened up into the pajamas. No countdown, no drinking and honestly, neither of you mind that. Just staying close to each other was enough. As the clock struck 12, he kissed you and you kissed back, wishing each other. And soon, without much, you snuggled into each other and drifted off to sleep.

Hannie

The two of you had went out to the festival. You were a bit skeptical since Han's anxiety had been a bit out of hand for a few days. Scared he might get an attack again, you couldn't help but worry the entire time. It's true, Han wasn't a big fan of crowds and often got attacks when in a rush like that of a festival. But, he was sad you kept worrying about him. So, he pulled you to a secluded area, catching you off guard. "Wha- Hannie! Where are we going??" you asked confused. "Just trust me." he replied giggling. He pulled you up to a hill. No one was there. It was pretty far from the festival but by god was the view stunning. He hugged you from the back, nuzzling into the crook of your neck, "You worry too much, jagi. I know you've been worried about my attacks but I'm okaayy~" he whined. You chuckled and rubbed his head, "I love you, honey. Of course I'd be worried."

"Hmm..." he hummed, raising his head and resting his chin on your shoulder, looking up at the stars and then back at you, "wanna take pictures?" he asked like an excited child. You laughed and nodded, "Of course, baby~" He brought out two Polaroids from his bag and handed one to you. You giggled at his preparations. You spent rest of the time clicking pictures of each other and eating the snacks you bought. By the end, you spread the picnic cloth that he had brought as well and sat down together on it to see the fireworks. "You sure did came prepared huh? That explains the big bag" you pointed at his bag. He looked at you with a mischievous smile, "Thats not all jagi!" he took out sandwiches, cans of beers and a box of chocolates, "I was thinking you might worry too much. So I looked for the place with the best view and came prepared in case we needed space away from the crowd!" He was so excited and proud as he spoke that you couldn't help but melt. You kissed him softly and just as he kissed back the fireworks went off and the crowd roared "Happy New Year!!" you both flinched at the sudden boom but soon fell to laughter at the coincidence. It was the best way to go into the new year. So the two of you snuggled up close together and watched the fireworks while drinking and eating.

Lixie

You got home exhausted. A big sigh of disappointment leaving your lips since you got called into work last minute even on new years eve. Fortunately, you got home just in time. Your smartwatch brightened to show the time being 11:43 pm. You opened the door to your apartment to a brightly lit and well decorated living room. Felix, standing a bit away from the door holding a homemade cake and two cups of warm hot coco on a tray with his face beaming with a bright smile, "welcome home, beautiful!" He greeted. You hadn't seem him for two whole weeks because of both of your schedules. You even missed Christmas together and were sure it'd be the same for new years. Your eyes welled up with tears as you hid your mouth with your hands, "Lixie?!" You cried. Lix's previously brightened face soon turned into that of worry and concern as he put down the tray on the table and hurried over to you. "What's wrong, love? Are you okay?" He asked, worried. You pulled him in to a hug, crying on his shoulder, "I... I missed you so much!!"

He hugged you back, letting out a soft giggle, "I missed you too, lovely~ I'm sorry I couldn't be here for Christmas..." Still nuzzling on his shoulder, you shook your head, "I know you've been busy don't be sorry... Im so happy you're here..."

After some more crying, you finally calmed down. Your eyes puffed up and cheeks red cuz you were so embarrassed. Both of you sat down in front of the TV and counted down to the new year. Right at 12 both of you cut the cake, wishing each other with a kiss. He wrapped you with a blanket along with himself before he handed you your cup of hot coco, "wanna watch a movie?" he asked, taking his cup in his hand. You nodded, snuggling up to him. He giggled while putting on a comforting movie that both of you loved. "I feel like this year will go really well~" you sighed. He kissed your cheek, "as long as I'm with you, everything will go well." he whispered in your ear...

Minnie

You and Seungmin lived 5 hours away from each other by car. Given both your schedules, it was really difficult to meet. Both of you hopped on video call to spend the new years together. Although, seeing how you had your video off, seungmin was really confused. "Why do you have your video off?" He asked. "Oh just running a few errands. I'll turn it back on soon don't worry." You replied. He pouted wanting to see you real bad. "Come on just switch it on. It's just me anyway." "Im sorry baby but just gimme a sec okay?" And a while later you switched your video back on. His face beamed up in a smile. A smile that you so adored. "Going home now?" He asked, still smiling. "Mhm I am." He smiled back. You both chatted as you drove around. Another while later, you parked your car and suddenly he asked, "home already?" "Yeah. Home~" you had a 'weird' smile on your face. He raised his eyebrows, smiling yet confused, "what's with that face?" "What face?" You chuckled. When you got out of the car, the surroundings seemed oddly familiar. He brushed it off thinking it was a coincidence. That was, until you stood in front of a door and suddenly the bell of his house rang. For some reason, that ring echoed through your mic. "Hey... How come the bell of my house rang from my phone too?" "What do you mean? You're probably hearing things." "Huh? Strange." But without further prying he went down to his door and you switched your camera off again. He pouted again, "hey! No fair!" But you just giggled. He was gonna say something more in his screen while he opened the door but before he could get another word out, he was met with a bear hug. He was caught off guard, almost falling, but you caught him. "Hey baby!" You smiled brightly. He looked at you stunned. Is this a dream? Was he dreaming? Was he hallucinating? "Y-Y/N??" "That's me!" He couldn't believe his eyes. He touched your face as if this was all a dream. He hadn't seen in you in almost 8 months. You raised your hands up revealing two bags in both hands, "I got takeout! And also matching onesies!" You grinned. His smile soon fell, "wait... Onesie??? Don't tell me I need to wear it??" "Ugh of course! Whats the point of matching if you don't wear it?" You rolled your eyes. He groaned from the thought. "Oh come on!! You realise how bad the traffic was?? I came all the way here!" You whined. He grumbled but soon gave in. And thus, the two of you wore the matching onesies, sitting together on the couch watching a movie and eating the food you bought. And soon you got a notification in your phone for the new years count down. You turned on the news channel and both of you excitedly counted down to 12 am. And that was the first time in ages that the two of you shared a kiss. A real kiss. Not one through the kiss. Not emojis. A real lip to lip kiss. The kiss indulged for a good long while leaving the two of you panting. Seungmin was red all over. You pulled him close, snuggling together and spent the rest of the night basking in each other's love.

Innie

You still remember that night. 2 years ago during new years you rode the bus crying after getting cheated on. That night the bus was almost empty with a few passengers. Mostly elderly couples. And another young guy. When he noticed you crying despite your desperate efforts of being silent, he came up to you. That night he comforted you when no one else did. And a year later on the same day you guys became official while riding the same bus. So this year, you wanted to ride that bus again to celebrate the beginning of the new year where it all started. After having dinner, both of you sat in the same seat you did that night two years ago. Holding hands, leaning on to each other. Going down nostalgia lane as you recounted the memories. The last stopage was the 24/7 cafe where he took you to. Both of you took a seat at the farthest corner of the cafe beside the big window, just where you were those years ago. The sight of the city was no longer blurry with tearful eyes. It was clear as you snuggled close with your lover. He kissed your cheeks and you returned the kiss on his nose. The countdown started, the staff, other customers and you both celebrated together. Despite being strangers with the other people, it felt like a family gathering. You shared a kiss right on midnight along with loving wishes. That night when you got home, he whispered sweet nothings in your ear and you let him know just how lucky you were to have met him those two years ago. "Had I not met you on that bus that night... I don't know where I would've been..." You smiled, intertwining his fingers in yours. "Im glad we met. And since we did... What's the point of thinking something that didn't happen, hm? Let's think of the future instead, okay?" He kissed your forehead. You nodded, "I love you so much, innie..." "I love you too, Y/N-ah~"

Precure Day 243

Episode: Yes! Precure 5 Go Go! 44 - “Deliver Them! Everyone's Presents!" Date watched: 10 June 2024 Original air date: 21 December 2008 Screenshots Precure Metamorphose Gallery 1  Gallery 2 | Sky Rose Translate Gallery Project info and master list of posts

"He does exist!"

"They do exist!"

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! (ignore that it’s the middle of June when this comes out [I am not changing that line, that’s how long I’ve been working on this]) Yes, it’s Christmas in the world of Precure 5, and historically, that means drama! So put on your Santa suit and rev up the reindeer, we’re going delivering!

The Plot

‘Twas the day before Christmas, when all through Natts House Everybody was stirring and bustling about; They all, except Nuts, dressed in fine Santa wear In hopes that their customers soon would be there;

Then Mailpo cried out, and with a sense of dread Nozomi looked up as bags fell on her head Her friends showed concern as she stood up from the rubble  But Mailpo cried out that they aren't out of trouble When out from the fairy, there emerged such a list Of which Kurumi and Karen gathered the gist

Away to Eternal the plot then did shift Mucardia realized something was amiss Much about Syrup, Anacondy was hiding  Then the snake found the bug, chastised him for prying And warned him that not even he will get mercy If once again she finds his results unsavory. Mucardia absconds, but Anacondy’s lips purse She knows the director, and she must move first

Back with the girls, the truth comes to face  The bags contain toys and the list contains names The girls must play Santa within their fair town And deliver the gifts to children up and down So into three groups they split to fulfill their objective North, east, and south, going in every directive Now Nozomi, with Rin-chan! Urara with Syrup! Fly Komachi with Karen, and away right this instant! To the houses they run! To apartments they trawl! Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!

While the heroines scurry hither and yore Milk, Nuts, and Coco all tend to the store The Natts House is full with countless patrons And the Palmier trio try their best to placate them During their scuttle, ‘twas a strange figure Whom Urara and Syrup found in their vigor With his pants crimson red, and his beard snowy white, And his stature quite portly, he’s truly the sight Of the man called St. Nicholas, so the audience knows But to the ensemble this remains to be shown.

The man collapses with a fever quite high So Syrup brings him to the shop on the fly While Karen attends him, Urara proceeds To continue her task on this strange Christmas Eve

The red man awakes in the back of the store Declaring that he must return to his chore For he too delivers parcels around And needs to get his quest back off the ground But his sleigh he still needs to perform his task (Somehow the staff don’t find this an unusual ask) So out to the streets Syrup quickly makes To find the man’s sleigh, whatever it takes

Syrup scours the town, leaving no stone unturned While no sleigh is found, a bug makes him squirm Mucardia shows up and taunts the young man Whose past holds a secret that’s the crux of this plan Anacondy keeps this secret close to her chest So Mucardia wants to make Syrup confess In order to weasel his way next to the boss Because Anacondy, you see, is hiding their loss

As he torments the boy, the heroes hit the scene Mucardia scoffs and prepares to make them scream He summons a sleigh he’s been planning to store (The very same sleigh the old man is looking for) Then a large Hoshiina the sleigh manifests So the girls must transform to see it suppressed

They clash and they duel against this most fearsome opponent While Mucardia still interrogates for his missing component As is often the case, the fight is a distraction As Eternal’s most loyal tries to force recollection The Pretty Cure punch and they kick and they mug Trying to get to Syrup to give him a hug The monster simply gets in the way So Milky Rose leaps in and enters the fray

WIth a powerful kick, she topples the foe And the Precures cause Mucardia much woe He pleads with Syrup to try to remember Why he came to Eternal before being a courier But Cure Dream says to let him stay fogged For at the Cure Rose Garden his memory will be jogged Mucardia sics the Hoshiina upon his opponent But a Rainbow Rose Explosion destroys it in a moment

With much frustration, the villain departs And Syrup gives Nozomi his sincere regards At Eternal HQ, disinterested in the loss Anacondy ponders a letter meant for her boss She’s kept stashed away inside of her desk With the seal of a rose suggesting the rest

Back at Natts House, night has now arrived And everyone has gathered around outside To reunite the old man with his possessions And see him off on his annual obsession He explains how he fell and lost his apparel And this left him stranded and sick and in peril

But thanks to the generosity of all around He was able to recover, safe and sound So it’s to his deliveries he must return And inside everyone’s heads, the wheels begin to turn A man dressed in red with a beard snowy white With presents to spare and a sleigh that takes flight?

Nuts offers his coat to protect from the cold And everyone observes that he looks quite bold Nozomi remarks that he has Santa’s visage Causing Rin to explain that yes, that’s who he was

As they all finally realize and see their guest off Nozomi remembers a task she forgot In all the commotion, no cake was acquired But Mailpo points to a gift that Santa retired It turns out to be just the cake they wanted And they all thanked the man as he departed

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all flew like the down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight— “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

The Analysis

So, quick recap in non-poem form in case it was hard to follow, here’s the gist: Santa was delivering gifts when Mucardia attacked him with the intent of adding the sleigh to Eternal’s collection. He fell from the sky, lost his coat and hat, and became ill from the cold, so his strong feelings of wanting the gifts connected with Mailpo, who brought the gifts and the list to the team. They take up the task of delivering his gifts and in the process find Santa, looking sick and out of sorts. They don’t immediately recognize him, but they tend to him and he has a talk with Syrup and regains his motivation. Mucardia, who was snooping in Anacondy’s desk, learns that Syrup has visited Eternal before becoming a courier and Anacondy is hiding something from the director, so he tries to interrogate the boy to find out why, but Syrup can’t remember his past before the girls dispatch the villain. At the end, Anaconda ponders the letter and decides she needs to take action herself because the Director is drifting too far away from her in his obsession with Flora. The team returns Santa’s sleigh and bags of presents and they watch him depart on his deliveries and then they finally realize that this fat old man with a long white beard dressed all in red with a flying sleigh is, in fact, the real Santa.

What I Liked

Aside from digging into the depths of Syrup’s memories and Anacondy’s manipulation, it is actually a fairly light episode, compared to the last two Christmas episodes, and some of the ones that will follow. I enjoyed seeing the girls playing Santa for a day, that led to some fun scenarios, and there’s some good gags that come out of it too:

It was funny how civilians repeatedly pointed out that it’s the middle of the day on Christmas Eve when the girls show up in Santa outfits delivering presents. (also, let’s be real, if some random person came to your front door on Christmas Eve with a present claiming it was on behalf of Santa, you would be at least a little suspicious)

Komachi gets really into the part of Santa, stroking her imaginary beard at one point.

Nuts weaseling out of putting on his Santa outfit by always finding a distraction is amusing, and then at the end he just gives it to the real Santa. That was cute.

Speaking of which, I appreciate that, while it’s immediately obvious to the audience that this old man is probably literally Santa, it takes the characters a long time to put the pieces together, and he doesn’t come out and say it either.

Also also….. Santa is real in this universe. The concept of Santa has remained unspoken in the franchise prior to this, and suddenly he’s here. It’s kind of amazing. To date there are only two shows that explicitly show Santa (the other being HUGtto), and a few others put spins on him like Maho Girls saying “it’s actually wizards” and Star Twinkle saying “it’s actually a race of aliens.” See my Christmas Episode post for more on that.

Kurumi makes a good coordinator for the group, and we also see Karen’s medical studies in practice as she nurses the man who is definitely not Santa. (As I’ve said before, she is 15-16 years old and still in middle school, she, hasn’t started any formal medical training or internship, so she’s just applying basic first aid, but it’s a nice gesture).

What I Didn’t Like

The art style is just a bit… off, this episode. The art director was Iijima Shuichi, who I have called out before. (GG33, GG25, GG17, GG09, GG02). His faces can be really weird. In some places I think it kind of works, but it’s more miss than hit. (I've hit the image limit on this post so skim the gallery)

Despite all the buildup, it’s still not spelled out just what Syrup’s past is. He has a revelation but it’s only half a reveal. The full truth is yet to come to light.

Miscellaneous

So this episode is a little more fresh in my mind than the rest of the series, since I last watched it 5 years ago for my Christmas episode retrospective. I mostly remembered it in comparison to the Christmas episodes that sandwich it: Yes! Precure 5, and Fresh Precure. Both of those are pretty heavy, down to earth episodes, compared to the lighter tone of this episode, and so it entrenched itself as less…. Significant, for lack of a better word. But seeing it in the context of the show, it’s more heavy than I realized or remembered.

It’s revealed that Anacondy actually intercepted a letter from Flora meant for the Director, and hid it, which could have dramatically altered their relationship and prevented the show from happening. We know that she has an obsession with the Director, possibly she’s even in love with him, and hates that he’s so obsessed with Flora. She has been trying for years to steer him away from that obsession, to no avail, and this shows just how far she’s gone. It’s dubious what this has to do with Syrup’s latent memories, although that mystery will be addressed soon enough. His big reveal is that he went to Eternal before officially becoming a courier, in order to deliver said letter (which Anacondy then stole).

Conclusion

This was a really fun and enjoyable Christmas episode, and sets the stage for the endgame of the series. It blended fun hijinks and gags with a feel-good story about Santa and some drama about Syrup’s past. Next time, it’s the beginning of the end. Look forward to it!

English Language has always been my favorite class! I was the most excited about my Sociolinguistics class in university but it was taught by a nasty tool so he ruined that. Also Korean language class. Language classes in general.

15. What is your dream job?

Right now? Being rich enough that I don't have to work so I can write. I'd love to be a successful published writer. Singer, and also fashion brand owner. Oh well. Trying to be realistic

A Night in Paris

Precedent chapters: 5, 6

Chapter 7 : Fury

Canada was watching America walking in circle in his room, his brother woke him up in the middle of the night to come and talk about something important, it could be anything and everything with America. « I am sure she had slept with him. » Cried America , shaking in all directions before adding; « It's been several days since I've wondered who might want to sleep with her, I've even , blah, blah, blah ... »

And there he goes again in his usual paranoia, spying on everyone, trying to master other countries by his ideology. And saying that he criticizes dad on it, they are really similar on this method, thought Canada, but he knew what would cost him to say his thoughts aloud, his brother would find a way to avenge or humiliate him in the months to come. For these reasons, Canada preferred to remain silent, and to play the game of America as long as possible until the latter was satisfied.- Who are you talking about? Asked while baying Canada, who had not understood at all, what his brother had been mumbling for twenty minutes.

" But France and this bastard of communist!" America replied angrily, who couldn't stand for someone not to pay attention to what he was saying.

" USSR?"

"Yes, him, who I don't know why dad is trying to deny that's it him."

" Maybe it's not him then?"

" No! I am sure that France sleep with him, after all she has always been in good term with these reds , and then in her population this party is still popular . It disgusts me that she did not clean up or that she simply banned it ,instead, she lets them express themselves,and be in her government ."

"You still resent the fact that she kicked you out of her country or that she managed to get up to the table of the winners or else it is ..."

"Shut the fuck up! Of course, I didn't like it when once I came to rescue her from the third Reich, saving Europe for the second time, and there she ...immediately after she became hostile to my installation, by demanding and imposing the withdrawal of my troops." America cried out while making big movement with these arms, before Canada, which was visibly tired of all this nonsense.

"She immediately noticed that you tried to destroy her."Tried to justify Canada , he did not like when his brother criticized his mother , she was certainly for America more like his mother-in-law but it was still her and Spain who helped him during his war of independence. "Stupid , I never wanted to destroy her." Bitching America , who couldn't stand his younger brother's accusations, about his actions or attempt. "Yet it was indeed the project of your President Roosevelt and his plan for Europe, wasn't he?" Canada risked.

"Yes, there was that. However, that was not my goal."

"America", said Canada in a weary tone while watched him sweat nervously, he knew that his brother had discussed it with Roosevelt on the question of Europe, that he was happy to be able to show his power over the European countries, some of which had snubbed him and criticized him .

" Admit America, you are trying to weaken the old colonial empires to increase your own power."Murmured timidly Canada, who immediately regretted making this comment, seeing his big brother take off his iconic sunglasses and his dark blue eyes then flashed lightning.

"And so what!" The latter replied, visibly angry.

" You cannot criticize Mom's actions." Dared shyly Canada by hardly supporting America's insistent gaze.

"And if she chose the camp of this communist. You would follow her like a good big boy to his mommy, eh."

" And so you try to intimidate me, for what? And then mom is still a powerful country whether you like it or not!" He bits his tongue, insulting himself internally for saying that.

"No, I ... , she ...she is no longer a great power, period. And then she has already started to make treaties with this coco."

"What are you talking about, Mom wouldn't do something like that."Canada really didn't like how things were going, he was hopeless that everything would stop, and that this nightmare would end so that he could finally rest. "Oh yes, well look,and open big your eyes, my dear brother. She did not wait until the end of the war to form an alliance with the USSR, they signed on December 10, 1944 in Moscow."

Canada remained speechless due to this revelation, how he could not have been made aware of it, it is perhaps a small treatise of nothing at all that will probably have no impact in the future, finally he hoped . However , what irritated him the most was not this treaty, but the air of complete satisfaction that America displayed. It was with an inordinate calm and in a frigid tone that Canada uttered his words that hurt America:

"You have changed far too much. You are no longer the brother I knew."

Day 2 of asking for yandere hawks x pregnant chubby reader

I have heard the cries of your ask :3 my child sorry it took me forever to complete :3 hopefully you enjoy it :3!

I made it a bit more fluffy :3

—-

Hawks will be overprotective of you that’s when your not pregnant now add a baby to the mix it’s like being in your own prison ( well you already are ).

He baby proves the house it’s a bonus added since you don’t get hurt and once the child comes out the house will be safe enough for them. He also make sure that any sharp utensils are put away correctly.

If your stove is an open fire he is totally cooking for you ( even though he kind of sucks so you’re telling him how to cook in reality.)

As a yandere he lowers his sadistic self and actually starts acting like a real loving partner.

It frightens you sometimes because you forget that he still is the one that kidnapped you, even though he’s massaging your feet while watching your favorite show. While both of you are just laughing and throwing witty banter. Enjoying the small moments where you lower your walls and open up. Remembering who you were …..remembering the outside….

!

Since you are chubby he watches your weight carefully. He stopped insulting you since he once did a side comment and your tears were running for days . You wouldn’t even face him, refusing to eat.

That quickly made him shut his mouth more .

He loves your soft tummy !

He is always by your side at home . Talking to the baby making sure you are okay .

His favorite thing is getting greeted at the door by you and feeling your stomach on his body . He gives you a big kiss and then one to his little boy ( Keigo knew it was a boy a long time )

Maternity photo shoot….  did I forget to mention that it’s decorated with his feathers and gold.

If you are a well behaved darling he actually takes you outside to get your checkups . Like a little walk outside :) a small reward as he calls it .

Buuuut if you aren’t a good wife and especially in public well there are always doctors who are just in it for the money .

Being moody and aggressive with him can cause him to lose his patience and that means he needs to correct your behavior so maybe he might take a bit longer when you need that medicine or when your skin urgently needs that coco butter créame .

So even if pregnant he still punishes you psychologically and he has his right hand man helping him in the inside.

“ Dove we are going to be late for the doctors remember it’s at 4:30.”

Keigo was putting on his warm coat as it was December outside . He got two red scarfs one for him and the other for you .

He was putting one of his feathers in side to make sure to track you if anything happened while the doctor took you to the other room.

He didn’t hear you reply but he did hear a sniff and he knew what those meant .

You were looking into the mirror again. Critiquing your body looking at all of the lumps and bumps. Stretch marks running across your figure, with the cherry on top your swollen stomach.

He knew being 5 months along was rough and your baby belly has gotten bigger with it . He wished you knew how beautiful you looked carrying his child .

He was proud that he breed you just right :> and he’s going to be the best papa ! He just knows it !

He walked to the shared bedroom and saw you naked. He quickly calmed himself down before doing something he really shouldn’t.

“ Dove, you okay ?”

He saw tears running down your face . He moved quickly covering you with his wings .

“ keigo … I don’t feel beaut-“

He lifts your face to see your eyes wiping way those tears.

“ you might not feel beautiful my dove , but trust me when I say you are beautiful.”

He kisses your lips softly, a loving kiss for his loving wife .

“ let’s go to the the doctors and then how about your favorite park ?”

Your eyes had a light that he hasn’t seen in a while .

“ C-c-can we feed the d-duck.?” Wiping your face feeling it warm he nods encouraging that small light .

“ yup ! We do have extra bird seeds.”

He turned you around and took a step from you . You were know facing your bedroom instead of the mirror . As keigo walks around the clothes he picked out a red coat he loves on you .

“ my dear red is such a beautiful color on you .”

He got your outfit ready wanting you to match him and the scarf .

—-

He was buttoning the last button on on your coat he looked at your pulp lips and gave them a quick kiss .

“ love you (Y/n) .”

You looked at him and gave him a small smile

“ love you too keigo .”

You lean your forehead on his chest, letting his wings hug you as well .

—

While feeding the ducks he was puffing out his chest to tell the ducks and swans that’s his mate . You just thought he was cold so you just held his hand feeding to his bird ego.

He felt proud that you were being such a good dove. He was a bit nervous you would fly away and get taken away or be trouble but nope you are calm and trained the perfect dove.

He rubbed your stomach feeling his son kick.

“ HE KICKED ! Dove he kicked ! Hi it’s daddy!”

He kneeled to stomach level and continued to talk and rub your stomach .

You chuckled at his actions . You knew he wanted to be a father you just sadly didn’t want him to be the father but you promised your baby you will be the best mom in the world .

You knew your Baby would grow in an odd world but you would make it the best, even if that means including that damn hawk keeping you trapped.

You are afraid..because every day he gets a bit sweeter and your walls are breaking. Plus this baby is making you tired so you let some things pass by, just like your opportunity to tell the doctor for help or even the fact your room was right next to the emergency exit .. no one would have noticed.

“ love you my dove and our hatchling .”

But

This baby makes you tired and keigo is taking you out to eat dinner and it’s your favorite !

“ say Ah my dove ! This cake is so delicious!”

Did he mention a body massage with a comedy movie tonight?

“ maybe one day we can go to Paris as well . What do you think ? “

Oh! He doesn’t work tomorrow ? So lazy cuddles in the morning!

“ five more minutes the hatching and I need more nap time dove .”

Telling your self it’s all for the baby .

“ alright five more keigo and then we eat breakfast okay ?”

He nuzzled your shoulder and nods

“ love you dove .”

You leaned in and smiled

“ love you too keigo.”

[holdmytesseract]

So... I just finished watching the series finale of the Walking Dead and man, I don't even know where to begin...

It's been one hell of a ride to say the least. And I don't mean just this episode, no... The entire series. I never thought that I would get so emotionally attached to this series. Hence, I never even thought that I was going to like TWD, back in August, when I started to watch it. And well, look at me now. I am an emotional wreck after the end of season 11. I cried - a lot. I can't believe it's over... Sure, I know this series for barely 5 months and I know that there are people out there, who watched it for 12 years, but... Damn, I love it. A lot.

I'm going to continue my rambling underneath the cut, because spoilers...

Where do I start? Luke and Jules. Gods... They both weren't my favourite characters, but nevertheless... I was sad when they died. Especially Luke. To see how Magna, Connie, Kelly and Miko suffered was heart wrenching.

Daryl saving Judith... I think we can all agree that it was a bad idea to bring her along in the first place, but yeah... It was very sweet. I can't deny that. It reminded me of when Rick saved Carl - and Shane, when he rolled that bed in front of the door to block Rick's hospital room. The parallels were killing me a bit. Just like the 'Hey lil' asskicker. Hey big asskicker.' thing - omg...

I am so so fucking happy Lydia survived. Honestly. I had a very bad feeling, when they had to amputate her arm, but luckily she made it. I learned to like her so very much - which brings me to Negan and Maggie. I loved the conversation they had. How Maggie can't forgive him, because everytime when she looks at him, she sees Glenn die - but she doesn't want to hate him anymore. That was the first time I almost cried. I hated Negan in the beginning. I did. But he had such a huge character development... He really changed. A now I have to say, that I like him. He deserves to live. I'm happy he's got Annie - and his kid.

I think the worst part for me, was watching Rosita die. That was the first time I felt the tears running down my cheeks. Gods, don't get me started on Eugene sitting by her side, crying. Or realising Coco lost both her parents... Luckily she's got Gabe. Yeah... Gabriel... He literally went from zero to hero, didn't he? I never thought he would be there in the end, but he is. And I am glad he is.

What I didn't like so much was how they got rid of the walkers. I mean, yeah, it was super cool and all, but... It was a bit too easy, wasn't it? And suuuper rushed, like... Idk... One second, the Commonwealth is ablaze and in the next they're having dinner together? Was a bit weird.

I love that Ezekiel is the new Governor, alongside Mercer. We all know that if somebody can do this, it's him. He's got his Kingdom back - and I'm happy for him. Ezekiel is a great guy - just like Mercer. I'm happy he found Princess - who deserves her happy ending. Just like Eugene and Max. Btw, I'm happy Aaron and Jerry survived as well. I mean, come on... Jerry is such a cool dude.

The end was, ugh... I can't put in words what I felt when I saw Michonne and Rick. When they talked about everyone who lives and who we lost on the way... Yeah, I was on the verge of crying again. But at the same time it was somehow utterly beautiful. We are never going to forget the ones we lost on this long journey, right?

Who/what else do we got? Oh right... My man. My knight in an angel-winged vest and crossbow. First off... He was super hot in that episode. Let me thirst about this man for a moment, thank you.

Secondly... AMC... WHY IS HE NOT WITH CONNIE, HUH? WHY??? We were robbed! Robbed! Well... Not much we can do about it, unfortunately... But I'm happy Connie is here. And Kelly. And Miko and Magna - who are super cute together. Thirdly... Ugh, that scene with Carol in the end... I'm not saying that I am a huge Carol fan, but damn... I cried. Again. The friendship those two have... Damn... But my personal downfall in the end was, when Judith said to Daryl: 'You deserve a happy ending too.' Right into the feels, because yes!! He deserves a happy end! I hope he finds it.

All in all, I can say that I enjoyed this episode. The season was a bit meh, but this episode... Holy shit.

Am I going to re-watch TWD? Hell yes! It's not over. It's never over.

Whoops... I didn't mean to talk this long, but well... Sorry guys! I just had to get this off my chest. Thank for coming to my ted talk.

If somebody likes to talk with me about the series finale or TWD in general, I am always up for a little chat!

Precure Day 226

Episode: Yes! Precure 5 Go Go! 28 - “Coco’s Bride Appears!?” Date watched: 17 October 2022 Original air date: 24 August 2008 Screenshots Precure Metamorphose Gallery | Sky Rose Translate Gallery Project info and master list of posts

Preach it, Nuts

I feel like every series introduces a mascot character that is utterly unlikeable. FWPC had Porun. Max Heart had Lulun. Splash Star….eh Moop and Foop weren’t bad. Yes 5 had Milk. I didn’t think Go Go had one. Clearly I had wiped this episode’s monstrosity from my memory, because she takes the cake. Let’s *sigh* dive in.

EDIT: Quick note. As of this episode the imgur galleries are a bit different. I decided to try letting a program automatically capture screenshots for me, and then I went behind it and added and removed a few. As such there are going to be fewer showcases of individual scenes and more of an overview of the episode at large. This decision was made to decrease the wait time between new reviews.

The Plot

It's extremely hot out, and the girls they'd like to go somewhere cool like Karen’s island resort again. Karen mentions she has a mountain villa they can stay at.

Komachi captures a Palmin which turns out to be the third monarch, Princess Crepe. The princess starts acting lovey dovey towards Coco and calls him her fiance. Coco quickly denies this but all the girls glare at him.

if looks could kill

At Eternal, Bunbee sees Isohgin and Yadokahn leaving to go fishing. They promise to bring back the Rose Pact.

Princess Crepe is upset that Coco doesn't remember their engagement. When she explains the context, it turns out the “proposal” was Coco sharing some food with her. This is considered a proper marriage proposal in her kingdom. Not willing to admit the misunderstanding, she threatens not to recognize him as a king if he doesn't marry her.

Princess Crepe and Milk argue over Coco and Nuts's responsibilities to the Palmier Kingdom, and continue until they realize everyone else has left.

There’s been a B plot developing about Nuts handing out water to passers by, which now takes the forefront. Everyone else is giving drinks to the swarm of customers outside while Princess Crepe cries in joy to see Coco and Nuts smiling again after the destruction of their kingdom.

I&Y show up and turn a crawfish into a Hoshiina. The girls all transform and Princess Crepe is surprised that they're Precure & Milky Rose.

Princess Crepe retreats into the Rose Pact during the fight and Syrup accidentally drops it, so I&Y try to snatch it, but Rose gets in the way. The crawfish is overcome without great difficulty and the Cures finish it with Rainbow Rose Explosion.

Milky Rose starts to use Milky Rose Blizzard on the villains, but I&Y remember how much it hurt last time and flee before getting hit.

nope. don’t like that.

Princess Crepe admires the girls and thanks them for protecting Coco and Nuts. She says she now understands why they choose to be here, with people that protect their smiles.

Crepe says that the Palmier-Crepe Alliance will be strong after this, while snickering. Everyone stares in concern and the episode ends.

nothing nice is ever said with that face

The Analysis

What I Liked

There are some fun reaction faces in this episode, especially from Milk. And the glare Nozomi gives Coco when she thinks she’s the other woman is superb.

The B-plot with Nuts handing out water was decent. Just a casual display of wordless compassion.

The fight sequence was pretty good as well. It featured fast action and some strong teamwork. There were some attacks that were clever and creative and visually powerful from both the Cures and the Hoshiina.

The flashback scenes show that Coco has always been willing to stick his neck out for other people, showing kindness to a younger Princess Crepe.

Face faults are an anime trope that I love. Someone says something surprising and everyone falls over. This episode makes good use of them every time Princess Crepe talks about how Coco supposedly proposed to her.

Princess Crepe withholding political support until Coco agrees to marry her is the most realistic display of international diplomacy I’ve seen in this show.

What I Didn’t Like

Princess Crepe. She’s worse than Milk, worse than Lulun, worse than Porun. I hope her time in this show is brief and she very quickly overcomes her obsession with Coco.

I can’t believe I’m siding with Milk

Princess Crepe. Her obsession with Coco and their supposed engagement is so flimsy. I understand it’s meant to be upsetting to the audience, and it succeeds at that. I did face the question of whether disliking something the show wants me to dislike means it’s a good thing, and it is, but it still goes in the dislike column. If they managed to spin this into a lesson on consent and accepting rejection, I would place it in the “like” category.

There is astonishingly little Eternal in this episode. I’d have liked to see more of them. Even during the fight, Isohgin and Yadokahn barely do anything. They just show up.

The Hoshiina molts at one point in the episode but nothing is done with this.

it’s just a shell of its former self

As a summer filler episode, the art is on the low end of the quality spectrum.

Miscellaneous

Milk appears in her fairy form for the second episode in a row.

Princess Crepe is named after a crêpe, a popular French pastry that is basically a very thin, flat pancake. They’re served in a variety of ways, from individually with simple toppings, to stacks, to rolled up around fillings.

Princess Crepe refers to Coco as “Cocorin”. Her speech tic is ending her sentences in “kuku”, the first syllable of her name in Japanese (Kurepu).

Princess Crepe is voiced by Nishihara Kumiko, who went on to play Crescendo Tone in Suite Precure and Sharuru in Dokidoki Precure.

Isohgin and Yadokahn speak a little differently in this episode. They form full sentences but Yadokahn finishes them rather than restating Isohgin’s remarks.

Conclusion

Summer filler is strange sometimes. It’s generally understood that it will be lighter in tone and less impactful, and this certainly meets that description, but it’s possible to do lighthearted episodes well. Coming off the heels of the summer festival episode, which I overall liked, this one has more bad than good. Princess Crepe is off to a bad start as a character, but there’s time for her to redeem herself. Perhaps this will be a case where the monarch has more to learn from the team.

Next time, on Precure Daily, a new villain makes his appearance! Look forward to it!

4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?

Yes, I definitely do. My sense of humor is very dry and sarcastic.

5. What’s the first thing you notice about people?

I don’t think there’s one specific thing that I immediately notice about everyone. It depends on the person and what about them stands out to me.

6. What’s your eye color?

Green!

I’m not a big fan of movies, but if I am going to watch one, I usually go for a horror or thriller or something along those lines. My favorite movie is The Proposal, though, so take that as you will.

12. What sports do you play or have you played?

I haven’t played sports in a long time, but when I was younger, I did gymnastics, three types of dance (tap, jazz, and ballet), and basketball.

5′4″

14. Favorite subject in school?

I used to have a “dream job,” but now I just want a job that pays me enough to live comfortably, has good benefits, isn’t too stressful, and doesn’t make me dread going to work every day. I just started a new job on January 9th, and so far it checks all of those boxes, so I’m satisfied. That being said, I have a master’s degree in criminology (and am not currently using it).

16. Sunset or sunrise?

Mornings are not for me, so I probably prefer a sunset.

I assume I’m supposed to tag 16 people, but I’m sure a lot of y’all have already done this, so I’ll tag a few and ask that you please don’t k*ll me if I’m the 700th person to tag you. @roxy206 @sapphicsupremacist @creatinglunasea @goodemethyd @t4yce @boscobetty

❤️ Thanks for the tag, @descendantdragfi, @obscurus-noctem and @fluttereyes  ❤️

Omg yes of course! Though I would like to see a dad Harry or a wedding related blurb and/or imagine :))

Have a great day!!

dadrry is my favourite! let’s go!!

September 14th. The dreaded day.

This day had been a long time coming and one that you hadn’t properly prepared yourself for. Harry was very relaxed about it all, teasing you when you cried for being such a wuss. Your emotions just seemed to overrule your mind and the tears were out once more.

“I don’t want her to!” You sobbed against Harry’s chest like a big ol’ baby.

Both of you were cuddled up on the couch, you snuggled tight into Harry’s side. His arm was around you back and laying rest on your waist, whilst he constantly gave you forehead kisses to soften your cries. The TV was playing some quiz show, but neither of you were watching anymore.

“Lovie, she has to.” Harry softly laughed at how ridiculous you were being, but at the same time keeping himself strong because he, too, wanted to cry now.

“But she’s too young!” You whined louder than a 3 year old being denied sweets.

“Y/N, love, she’s five. It’s time okay?”

“No. She’s my little girl.” You pouted, tears in your eyes but no longer streaming down your face.

“And she still is your little girl. Mine too. She’s just going to little people school now,” Harry kisses your cheek as you looked up at him, “she’s going to learn so many new and exciting things, yeah? She’ll make so many friends - if she’s anything like her parents, which believe me she is.”

You laughed at his attempt to cheer you up a bit. You weren’t ready to admit to yourself that your baby was going to school. It felt like yesterday you were taking her home from the hospital and beckoning to her every cry, now she was so independent for a 5 year old that you sometimes felt useless.

“She’ll be graduating university before we know it.”

“Baby, I think you’re getting a bit ahead of yourself there!” Harry chuckled, catching a tear from the corner of your eye and wiping it on his joggers.

“Maybe.” You rolled your eyes in agreement with him, but not wanting to admit that out loud.

You tucked your head back against his chest and hugged him tighter, not wanting to feel like you were losing anyone else. You hiccuped your cries away as you finished watching the end of the crappy TV show, before going to bed together and dreading the next day.

••••

“Uh oh.”

The house was frantic this morning and it really didn’t need to be. You were preparing Poppy’s snacks for the day, whilst Harry was double checking the checklist for things she needed and Poppy was eating her breakfast. Well, trying to eat her breakfast.

“Oh Poppy!” You sighed when you saw that the milk from her cereal had gone all over her jumper. Luckily, you were a prepared mum and had bought two of everything. “Ok arms up.” You told her and she did, pausing herself from her Coco Pops.

You threw the dirty jumper into the washing machine and pulled out a clean one from the airing cupboard.

“Here, let me.” Harry offered, seeing as you were still cutting up fruit and vegetables for her.

“Thank you.” Kissing him on the lips before getting back to your station.

“Alright little miss, arms up.” Harry ordered his daughter. “You’re a right messy eater aren’t you?”

“Mhm.” Poppy said, quite flat and quiet.

“Hey Hops, what’s wrong sweetheart?” Harry had forever called his daughter Hops as a nickname, because when she was first trying to say her name she couldn’t pronounce the ‘P’ so would call herself ‘Hoppy’ instead.

Poppy looked down at her cereal as Harry was adjusting the jumper on her accordingly.

You were quietly putting the snacks inside a container as you listened to their conversation.

“Just scared daddy,” she pouted, “I don’t think i’ll make many friends.”

“Hops, listen to me,” Harry made his daughter look at him and crouched down on the floor - so he was now looking up at her, “you’re going to have the best time of your life in school, okay? You’re going to make so many friends and every day is going to be an adventure—”

“Like the ones me and you have, daddy?” Poppy asked excitedly, making you smile to yourself.

“Exactly like that, baby. Except they won’t be as good, because I won’t be there.”

“Well I don’t want them to be as good if you’re not there.” Poppy cupped her dads cheek so softly, it brought tears to Harry’s eyes.

Pull it together, Harry thought.

“You’re going to be safe there Hops, and you’ll just love it.”

“Okay daddy.” She nodded. “Love you.”

“Love you, too. Now go brush your teeth and then we’ll go.” Poppy hopped off the chair and went upstairs to brush her teeth - carefully this time.

•••••

Harry just had to bring his fucking huge Range Rover.

You would’ve been quite happy to turn up in your civil Mini Cooper, but no. Harry said first day impressions are the most important and so ‘go big or go home’.

As Harry finally found a parking space big enough to to fit his asshole car in, you were finally at your destination. The first trip to this school of many.

“Alright baby, let’s do this.” You had no idea whether Harry had said that to you or Poppy, but both of you listened and began to climb out of the car. Poppy waited for Harry to open her door and hoist her out of the car - seeing as this stupid car was far too high up for her to climb.

Could you tell you hated this showy car?

Poppy took ahold of both your hands, walking in between you both. She was happily humming to herself whilst you and Harry sussed out the playground. Some children were stood cowered behind their parents legs and some were already playing tag with each other by the swings.

The sound of screaming children was so loud, but it created an atmosphere of happy chaos.

“You okay Hops?”

“Yep!” Poppy was more than excited now - she just wanted the day to start.

You and Harry went to go and stand over by some other parents who were just as lost as your family was.

“Hi? Excuse me,” you waited for them to turn around, smiling with happy faces - their daughter stood behind one of her dad’s legs in fear, “do you know where the Reception students are supposed to go right now?”

“Someone said they’d be out in five minutes to round them all up, I think.” One dad spoke back.

“Thank you!” You reached out your hand to shake theirs, “Hi i’m Y/N Styles. This is my husband, Harry and my daughter Poppy.”

“Nice to meet you. Archie and Felix Johnson. This our daughter, Millie.”

Everyone introduced themselves by shaking hands, but what surprised you all was the interaction between your two, seemingly, timid daughters.

“Hi Millie! Would you like to be my friend?” Poppy walked up to her and asked politely. Millie had appeared from behind her parents and excitedly nodded her head in yes.

•••••

After school Poppy was a bundle of energy and happiness. She couldn’t wait to talk about her day with her two favourite people.

“So how was school then, sweetheart?” You asked her on your car journey back home.

“It was so really good,” her grammar not being entirely correct, but you not having the heart to correct her yet, “and there’s this boy in my class…”

As she continued to talk you looked to Harry with a smirk, seeing his face full of disgust and soft anger. Harry spoke one final time, before your attention was fully dedicated to Poppy.

“She’s moving schools.”
