Hey! Sorry to bother you with a second ask but i thought this one would be cool. Fluffy headcanons of the demon brothers watching scary movies with MC??? Somewhere MC gets scared, and some where they don't? Thanks again!! :)
It’s no bother!! I love getting requests from you guys! The more, the merrier. I sort of hc that the brothers and MC do have movie night every week or so and with them being demons, they tend to levitate towards the horror genre. Thank you for sending this, this is really cute :)))
Without further ado—-
————————————
The Brothers watching Scary movies with MC:
Lucifer:
-Haha mf already knows how this is going to end
-He warned you, he really did
-The horror movies DevilDom has to offer are nothing, and I mean nothing, like the ones from the human world
-I’m not going to go into detail but imagine Two Girls One Cup, in a less kinky and more gorey way (then times that by 10)
-But you were adamant into giving it a go and he literally could not deny you in that moment
-Because you were giving him the puppy eyes
-That’s like, the finishing blow you use every time to get your way with him and as far as you know it’s the only one that works so-
-He expected your reaction to the last second
-You were traumatised for lack of a better word and you were basically watching the whole film through the cracks between your fingers
-Seeing you in that state was like a punch in the gut but he couldn’t stop himself from throwing in a subtle ‘I told you so’
-“I told you watching something like this before bed is a bad idea, MC.”
-He might be a bit condescending and judgemental at first, but he’s probably going to baby you a bit for the rest of the night
-Because he feels bad he allowed you to watch it in the first place
-HAHAHAHA SOFT LUCIFER HAS BEEN SUMMONED, USE HIM WISELY
-He will start muttering words of comfort to you later because he’s certain you’re going to have trouble sleeping
-Because of that one time, he’s very hesitant to let you watch another horror film anytime soon
-But he will relent eventually (especially if you want to watch a human horror film as those are technically less extreme)
-If it makes you happy, he will go through with it, even if he has to let you cling onto him for the rest of the day
-Besides, the way you cuddle into him while you’re watching a horror film is very cute and endearing to him
Mammon:
-Ah yes, the most effective method of waking up the entire House of Lamentation at 3:00 am
-Mammon screaming his own vocal cords out in his room as he tries to get through his human’s favourite horror movie without dying of a heart attack
-It was his idea because he’s definitely the type to go: “Yeah let’s do this, it will be fun. Don’t get too scared alright MC? The Great Mammon will be here to protect ya.”
-And then ten minutes in, he’s basically in your lap
-Half an hour in, he turned himself into a demon burrito with his blankets
-You were enjoying the movie, laughing at the stupid sound effects and poor quality while Mammon next to you has wrapped himself in like two dozen blankets and pillows
-“Mammon you’re going to overheat.”
-“Don’t be silly human, I’m a demon who lives in hell. I can take high temperatures the same way I can take this damn movie!”
-He doesn’t take either of them well
-Mammon and the horror genre don’t mix well together to begin with
-So even if you might enjoy horror, he doesn’t react well to it at all
-And he’ll be low-key relieved if you tell him you guys don’t have to watch any sort of horror film for your date night
-“Well I guess if you don’t want to, then we don’t have to. Can’t make my human do something they’re uncomfortable with eh?”
-But if you do watch a scary movie with him, be sure to show any sort of physical affection to him as often as possible
-You don’t have to say anything, just hold his hand or let him put his head in your lap or something
-It might stop him from screeching like a female sloth in heat
-The last time that happened, his brothers weren’t too pleased with him
-They about to recreate the horror film scenes onto him, bring the popcorn have fun
Levi:
-For some reason, I feel like he doesn’t get scared easily while watching stuff
-I mean, after decades of obsessively watching animes with brutal character deaths (like Attack on Titan style) and grotesque horror games that are pretty nasty even to demons, let alone humans;
-A horror film, from the human world or even DevilDom, doesn’t do much for him
-It will have to have very good psychological horror in it if you want the hairs on his arms to stand up in anticipation
-Tension is a big deal for him and he will immediately shut off the TV if there are any cheap jump scares
-But, if you manage to find just the right thing for him?
-You’ll both be hiding under the bed in no time under the bathtub more like
-Hell, if the film you’re watching is that good, he might even be holding onto you for dear life without realising it and getting flustered about it
-For weeks afterwards, any sound that is remotely similar to one from that movie will probably send both of you into panic
-You came to his room one night because you’ve had a nightmare about the stupid film and legitimately thought there was a fucking demon serial killer in your room
-So you wanted to stay in his
-“But what if there is a serial killer in your room and now you just led it to me MC????”
-It’s all jokes, there’s no question he would lock both of you in his room and then stay there with you wide awake until dawn
-You’re his best friend after all, he would have to be completely heartless to leave you on your own! (Besides Levi is terrifying when he wants to be)
-One time you were sleeping over and the sound of fumbling woke you tf up
-And Levi immediately turned into his demon form, like he was ready to throw hands with this fictional murderer that supposedly sneaked into his room
-“DON’T WORRY MC, I’LL PROTECT YOU!”
-“Ah never mind, it’s just Mammon breaking into your room again to steal your Ruri-Cham figurines and sell them on Akuzon.”
-“Oh OK.”
-“.....”
-“WAIT MAMMON WTF YOU FUCKING SCUMBAG, GET OUT OF MY ROOM-“
-I’m playing Minecraft
Satan:
-Believe it or not, Satan doesn’t care much about horror movies
-Don’t get me wrong, he loves watching his brothers shit their pants out of fear in the middle of one while he silently smirks to himself because watching other people suffer brings him euphoria
-Especially if someone actually manages to find a film that is excellent enough to spook Lucifer, because then he will be cackLING
-But, overall, he watches a lot of shows revolved around drama and crime
-That’s his thing
-However, he won’t turn you down if you’re up to watching a scary movie with him
-Any time spent with you is valuable time seeing as it won’t be long before his brothers start hogging you again like the cockblockers they are
-He is honestly surprised to find out you seem to be rather amused by those sort of movies
-So, even if it’s not inherently something he does on the regular, he would definitely watch a scary film with you if you enjoy them that much
-But in exchange, he makes you promise to read with him until bedtime rolls around (imagine Lucifer having a fucking curfew for his brothers and you lmao)
-So for the rest of night you guys just read together, ya know, like sappy romantics
-Tbh, this man will do almost anything with you as long as both of you are having fun
-He knows it’s not likely, but he insists on sleeping in the same room that night just in case you have nightmares and he needs to comfort you
- :)
-Satan is a gentleman. Idk how many people that don’t play OM expected to hear this
Asmo:
-Why would you want to watch a movie when you could be watching him???
-I mean, you would rather watch all that gory stuff on the TV than his beautiful face?
-He may get salty over a fucking movie tbh
-Horror films aren’t something he generally looks for while trying to pick a movie to watch
-He can definitely handle them better than Mammon but it’s not something he takes great pleasure in watching
-But the first time he ever sits down with you to watch one, he’s very intrigued to see your reactions
-You started feeling the sensation of absolute dread creep in at the very beginning and you were trying your best to act like you weren’t getting affected by what you saw on the screen
-But you were
-You went from “I’m grown ass adult, I can watch a fucking horror movie, no problem.”
-To “Welp, not enough of a grown ass adult for this-“
-And Asmo thought the way you tried to hide your nervousness was very mesmerising in a way
-He was planning on flirting with you during the movie anyway, but now that you were pressing himself against him?
-Oh boy, Oh boy
-“Darling if you wanted to touch me, you could’ve just said so. Making the excuse of watching a movie is unnecessary.”
-Nightmares? What nightmares? You won’t have time to have nightmares ;)
-haHAHA funny inappropriate joke
-It’s Asmo, it’s mandatory to have at least one of those added in here
Beel:
-Beel will show up if there’s food and that’s that
-He doesn’t care what type of movie is playing on the TV as long as he has a bucket of popcorn next to him at all times
-Horror films aren’t something he can’t handle, he’s a demon like the rest of his brothers and he is used to...violent deaths and such
-He doesn’t get scared but there are times where he gets attached to the characters
-Especially movies with actual good and not cringeworthy dialogue
-Therefore, when they die, he gets sad even if they’re just fictional and their death had no real impact
-He also thinks that the way you can watch these things without flinching is impressive
-I mean, he can watch it and so can his brothers because they are demons
-They’ve done worse things than the things you see in horror films
-But you’re a human! So it’s weird to see you watch a person get repeatedly slammed against a wall until their neck snaps without batting an eyelid
-Overall, he does not have an opinion on scary movies
-He gets a bit emotional when a character he really liked dies
-But other than that, he’s just focused on eating
-And occasionally patting your head affectionately
Belphie:
-He doesn’t really like horror films because there’s a lot of screaming and tense music and he’s just trying to nap in your lap (rhyme)
-He doesn’t really need sound effects like that in the background while he’s trying to sleep
-But one day he was like “Hey, what if I show my favourite human this particular scary film?”
-And he did
-And he’s internally dying and feeling guilty and yet so flustered because of you
-It’s like you suddenly turn into this very fidgety and anxious mess and he thinks you just look....cute
-At some point you were getting overwhelmed and sprung up on your feet to turn the lights on
-And he just grabbbed your wrists, pulled you down next to him and let you press your head against his chest
-As mentioned, he’s a little shit and will tease you for being such a scaredy cat
-“That was the most predictable jumpscare and you still flinched, wth is wrong with you lmao.”
-But at the same time....
-“Relax. It’s just a horror movie. You’ll be fine. Besides, I’m here. Like I would let something bad happen to you.”
-That’s sweet, even if the tone of voice may not imply it because he’s such a brat-
-He actually really likes holding you for once, because usually he’s the little spoon
-He’s still a bit of a sadist so I imagine him sitting there and watching this while giggling to himself
-Isn’t he the cutest, laughing at other people’s misery and their never ending suffering?🥺🥺🥺 UwU
-Ah well, at least he has the decency to spoil with affection afterwards and make sure you have no nightmares that night
-You know, as payback for the horrific shit he made you watch with no warning
————————————
OK, I think I made a decent job of this even though it took longer than it actually was meant to. Thank you for reading though. I’ve got so many requests to go through and I’ve been feeling motivated lately so yeah!
See you soon

Remember what I told you on MSN?
Today fortunately or unfortunately I dreamed about you and I ended up remembering our story, and maybe because I drank something different - beer no longer makes me dizzy, it's like I can not have a background for myself - today, it was gin with Schweppes lemon, and some lemon slices - maybe 2 or 3 - to make the taste even better, and I ended up going overboard, not that I'm drunk or something, because I never stayed and I think I'll never stay - I know my limits, well , Is not it ? - but I confess that I am a little dizzy, perhaps because it is something that is not so accustomed to drinking.
But returning to the subject, the dream was so cool, I still had you by my side, we would smile and play like we did a while ago, laugh, have fun, your problems were mine, and mine were yours, and in a way or on the other, they were always solved. We were teenagers - or pre, I never really understood the age that separates this stage of life - and all in the end was a reason for jokes and laughs, it was nice to be too, who would say that I managed to conquer your friendship, so I do not really ? The guy who despite not being shy spoke little to those who did not belong to his circle of friendship - and I am like this until today - but after you had a bond you could tell that he was the most talkative person in the world - yes, I am.
And the way we met, it was in a very strange / different / bizarre way, in fact it was. On a certain farewell among classmates in elementary school, leaving college after a tiring day of class - I did not know the real meaning of tiring at that time hahaha - you were friends with a friend of mine, and said goodbye to her, and then gave me perhaps by education or something, telling me "bye wall" - and I confess that I was surprised because I did not expect a farewell - with that sarcastic and playful way, so that the guy who was there in silence the company warm every day to come back home. And that's how it all began.
You were my best friend for a few years, I conquered you, we were as soles and shoes, one completed the other, even in the moments that had another face in the move - I had no girl / girlfriend / girlfriend, because to this day I'm pretty innocent about it , I can not see who is "in the end" of me, no matter how much it is in the face, my naivety can be greater, and it is not a lack of high esteem of my person, of truth that is not, and also not jealous some , we were friends, no, we were best friends, and what I cared about was your happiness - I covered you up, and I said "go and give him some kisses, that if you ask for yourself I'll make up any excuse" we were so attached that people would come to me to ask about you, and I knew exactly where you were, and I could invent anything at the time to disguise your absence. Time passed and our friendship was growing stronger, we were so happy, until I conquered your heart being simply your friend, you had already conquered mine, but still because of my naivete I would never tell you anything, afraid to offend you and listen to a "no", because I always wanted to have you by my side, I liked your embrace, your laughter, your smile, our conversations, anyway, before having as a friend, than losing you for It's a mistake, is not it?
But I conquered you, in my own way, being who I am, I always promised to take care of you, and while you were on my side I took care of you, and even when I was not present, I always showed concern (it was the least a friend like me could do) , and I think you started liking me - not that I did not like it, but in a different way - we went to the movies together with other "friends", and we did not have a movie set to watch, but I remember as if it were today, at the time we chose "If I Drink No Case", we did not even know the movie right, and maybe I did not know it would be such a funny movie, that it would have two more parts a few years later - but the first one remains my favorite - It was a little more than a year and a half of friendship, and a lot of things happening in our lives, but I had no one, I never really cared about having a person to kiss, and to say that I loved ( for more than for teenage loves this word does not have a very strong meaning, I always knew that not saying "I love you" to the four winds was simply futile and illusory, to say "I love you" is because you have to understand the word "love" and know that he's real), I'm like this until now - in my head it has to be true and intense, otherwise it's not worth having a relationship, maybe that's why I take time to be with someone - and that movie was the first time that I noticed that you felt something for me, paid more attention to me than the film, until the hand gave me while we were sitting with good laughs - I was really amazed, I confess I did not expect such action, even more coming from you.
The week passed, we talked about MSN at the time, you were the only conversation I stopped what I was doing to respond - the world could be ending, you called, I stopped what I was doing to respond as quickly as possible - and we were for hours talking, was very good, was when you said it was inevitable, that our friendship was already more than friendship, and that was the end of me - I was very awkward I was unanswered, we were best friends, about 1 year and a half, how was my best friend meant to kiss me, to stay with me? Even if I wanted to, I'd never said or sketched anything about it - I was unresponsive for a few minutes, but nervous I typed: "This can not happen, it's going to be a step to lose you," and you responded as follows: "I succinctly said," It's better the distance, because I want to have you by my side for the rest of my life ", your answer was a simple and dry" ok, ok "and came that silence, I pressed tight and closed the conversation - I was not believing, I was nervous. If it's been 10 or maybe 15 minutes, you call me and say, "I can not, please let's try", that's when I got there. Although I did not care much for beauty, I thought you - and I still think - beautiful, intelligent, fun, was something that despite knowing the risks I also wanted, the next day, I tried to keep the maximum distance from you during school playtime - was something really difficult for me, and I believe that for you too, all the recessions were at your side, often laughing, others talking about problems, and a few times in silence, it was very rare indeed, but there were days that we were not and even then we could understand it only by looking, and not one of them ever left the other - and in the middle of that late, recreational end you came to me without speaking, and just kissed me - it was not my first kiss, but it was just fantastic - and then we hugged each other - your hugs were too much, I felt like a man protected, and maybe I never told you that, but if I saw that it was true and safe - I did not go into class, and in I was late for the physics period, and the teacher would not take even one minute of delay (although she might be late because she had to finish her coffee and her cigarette before leaving the teachers' room, but she did not I think, today I know the true value of having a black coffee with a cigarette, and I would also be late hahaha), I ended up going to the direction of class, but I was not even calling, I was still delirious to know that I had kissed you , and received the best hug in the world.
Time passed, at first it was all very good, everything very new, I counted the time for recess and for the class to end, because I would know that I would see you and be able to kiss you again, and die with your hug (and indeed it was very good), outside that on weekends we always saw each other. In addition to being friends, we continued to be best friends, the intensity of our friendship was the same if not greater (from beginning to end it was something very strong and true), and I had you as an "almost girlfriend", it was almost 4 years, but I relaxed. It was always true, and although I always knew that your "I love you" was as true as mine, I knew that part of your head still had another person, another guy who never liked you, but you still liked him, in fact always liked. Over time I ended up falling into a comfort zone, I relaxed, I failed, I gave up my time with you, to stay with my "friends" - and you always told me that those friendships would not last a lifetime, you really were right , did not take. - (just as I told you everything, you told me everything, we had no secrets), and I ended up leaving you behind to go and stay with the "buddies."
But I never did anything with the intention of hurting you, although I relaxed, I still saw you as my best friend and my "almost girlfriend" and I never betrayed you, or I replaced you - you were unique - and you always gave me freedom despite of being very jealous, she always gave me freedom, because she knew who I was, and she trusted me, just as I trusted you. We knew everything about each other, including your past "passions" - since I had never fallen in love with anyone other than you, there was no one in my memory, and you knew it - and despite believing when you told me I said, "I love you," because it was love - adolescent love, but it was love, and you knew the meaning of that word as much as I did - I knew deep down in your memory you really loved me, but love does not want to say that I liked it, and that you liked another - that I knew, but I did not say that I was your hobby, because I was not - and that as I was relaxing, losing you, the one you loved would be there - even because he did not like me, for him you were something that would affect me, and for me you were everything, and I failed to give priority to friends, while you, the best person I had on my side, should be my priority - and so I lost you.
As I said before that first kiss, I am loyal to you, but we staying, it would be much easier to lose you, because of my futilities, and I missed you carefully, I left you aside, while you wanted to just stay with me , watching a movie on rainy days, strolling in the park on sunny days, telling jokes, or even silence, I was out and about in the city with fake friends, drinking and going to football games. And in the meantime, I lost you once, you ended up going to him, he never listened to you, he never liked you, he never even called you, he never gave you attention, but at the right moment he was there to give you all that, while I was not, no matter how much he cared for you, at last one loved you, and another you liked, who loved you for all this time, has lacked attention, and who you liked all this time, gave you a small period of attention, this is how the best friend loved, was replaced by what was never friend, however liked / desired but never loved.
This is how it happened that I told you on MSN, at the beginning of everything, because it is, I just lost you, and detail, the main cause of this loss was myself, you wanted, someone that companion, attentive, partner, I was all this for a long time, then I ended up relaxing. And so we finished, I preferred to go with false friends, and you stick with false love. - We both knew that -
But it was difficult for us at the beginning of the end, because we saw each other every day, it was the same circle of people, I never left you to tell you the truth, I always wanted to remain your best friend, and I swear I tried, of that "almost dating", for me it was the continuity of our friendship - it's kind of stupid that from the point of view of a man, who just lost the person he loved the most / liked for a "mané", but still wanted to have you my side, I still loved you - but I was wounded, just as you were, until we tried later, but I was reluctant, and I was too proud - you too are or you are - you tried really tried, and I did not give in, even though I did not show it, I was hurt / hurt / sad, because I was betrayed, because I was changed. And again I failed again, maybe if I gave in we would be laughing at all this today, and each celebrating the victory and achievement of each other - in that we were really good.
Today I have few friends, - I could even tell - but I know I have the best - I listened to you in this, because it was something that you always warned me about - I learned to conquer and to be conquered - yes I conquered you, and you has conquered - that those who are passing, must simply pass, I could learn with you too, to value the best things that life can give - you were one of the best things that life gave me, as I said before, we were alone and shoe, never imagined my best friend to become someone I would fall in love with - I learned to be loyal, I learned to be true. Today I am much more intense, and less proud - about being intense, today I say what I really feel, regardless of whether there will be sadness or joy, and this is not about simply being sincere - I learned to be true with myself, I learned to speak and show what I really feel, without being ashamed of what others will think - it was something I learned over time, even more so with this selfish and hypocritical society that we live in today - saying what you feel, in a full and sincere way, is something that everyone should do, that's all I learned from you. Thanks to you I became a better man, a better person.
Today I dreamed about you, and I tell you that I do not miss your kisses - not that they were not good, because they were great and unique - but it was the first step so that I would not have you next to me, but suddenly if I had not kissed you about 7 years ago, maybe TODAY you would still be by my side, as my best friend, I would still have your smile, your hugs, your eyes, and even your silence next to me, and if you had listened to me in that one MSN chat, I would not be here writing that today I miss you.

Finally getting around to this!
Was tagged by @cenobitic-anchorite (thank you!)
Putting this under a read more, because I wrote a lot.
1. What is your favorite movie? My answer to this is always Sleeping Beauty because it was the first movie that I stayed up watching with no adults. Like I must have been around 7 and my older cousin was 12 and we stayed up watching it after all the adults went to sleep. So for me, it signified some sort of independence. (On another note, that same cousin and I also stayed up to watch Pretty Woman before I realized what was going on in that movie.)
I know sometimes it’s a cop out answer, because I really can’t pick a favorite live action movie. There’s too many and I love a lot of them. Also, usually, when I say Sleeping Beauty, based on the other person’s reaction, I can tell if they’ll be compatible and/or get my vibe or not.
2.  If you had to drastically change your hair, how would you cut it and what color would you dye it?  I want rainbow hair, but I can’t have that where I work. I’ve been saying I’ve wanted to dye it red for several months now, but haven’t made the appointment yet (long story, but also mostly me dragging my feet). I’ve ALWAYS wanted a pixie cut, but have always been told that my face shape isn’t good for it (I did it senior year of college and there were people who flat out told me never to get that hair cut again). I’ll do it again, when I feel like I have the energy to maintain it.
3.  Can you drive a manual transmission car? lol, no. I can just barely drive an automatic. (Fact: I got my license at age 23 and didn’t regularly drive until 32.)
4.  What’s your favorite thing to cook or bake? Why? Is there a word limit to this? Cuz we’ll be here a few days. lol Favorite thing to bake is scones because I love scones. I also love to bake pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. And anything with a short pastry, so pies, tarts. I LOVE making sweet danishes. Oh crumb cakes. Oooh it’s season for fresh cranberries. I make a really good cranberry lime crumb cake. Cake, in just about every variation (rounds, sheet, cup, etc.) I like these because they’re delicious (and very few bakeries make them well, and I’m a dessert snob. If I’m eating it, it better be worth the calories. I’m also very particular about my cake to frosting/crumb ratio). Also, fact: I suck at baking regular cookies. I can do it, but they never look right and I’m pretty sure I’m screwing up the ratio of dry to wet ingredients or the butter’s not cold enough or something, but yeah, my cookies always look seriously deformed. (yes, I’ve seen that chart that troubleshoots cookies. No, it hasn’t helped.)
Favorite thing to cook. Hm... go to comfort stuff: penne vodka, but really, I like trying new recipes.
5.  How old were you when you got your ears pierced (if your ears aren’t pierced, do you want to get them pierced? The first time I got my ears pierced, I think I was in 8th grade, so 13-ish. After the initial however long it was that you’re supposed to keep them in, I got lazy so I didn’t keep earrings in all the time (and they hurt my ears), so the holes apparently closed. I got them re-pierced in sophomore or junior year of high school and again, after a little while, they closed again. I was thinking about getting them re-pierced again.
6.  Do you like Thanksgiving? Why or why not? I LOVE Thanksgiving. Yes, the historical aspect can go to hell, but personally, I love Thanksgiving. So growing up, being Chinese, we never celebrated American Thanksgiving. When I was about 13, I got a bread making book from the Scholastic book fair and discovered that we had a working oven (Chinese people don’t cook with ovens. We have a wok and a rice cooker. That’s really all you need.). Anyway, I started baking bread and it was amazing.
Also, our local supermarket would do the holiday promotion of if you spend $X, you can get a free holiday protein, and being a household of 8 (sometimes 10), we hit that spending threshold very, very quickly. So one year, I told my mom that we’re getting a turkey, instead of the ham that she likes. She was skeptical, but I was hell bent on celebrating American Thanksgiving and figuring out what this whole turkey hoopla was about.
I started cooking a Thanksgiving feast for my family (immediate and extended) from the age of 14. I did a sticky rice stuffing in the bird. Mashed sweet potatoes (no marshmallow. it’s sweet enough by itself.) I always made a lasagna (with cheese from DiPalo’s, where I would wait hours on line for our order) or another pasta dish. We did Chinese vegetables. And every year, we would pick new recipes we’d want to try. By ‘we’, I mean me. I would pick new recipes that I’d want to try and my three younger siblings would be obligatory sous chefs. And since bread baking happened in the wee early hours of the morning, we would have it for breakfast. So then I expanded the menu to include breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It became an all day thing and I was (and still am) obsessed.
Oh, it probably also helped to know that I come from a very large extended family and everyone would come through our house during holidays. Usually, it’s because my family hosted the mah jong parties, so we were kinda party central. My biggest Thanksgiving, we had about 50 people cycle through the house that day, so I had to make sure I had food enough for 50 people. Growing up, I’m pretty sure we never had less than 30. (It’s been a shock for me these past several years when we’ve hosted less than 20 people on turkey day.)
Then, my siblings would find recipes that they want to try, and Thanksgiving was this day where we would try food. Not all the recipes worked out, but no one ever got sick or food poisoning (oh man, I have stories from adjacent family members). But yeah. It’s an insane production and I love every minute of it (especially since my mom did the clean up, because bless that woman, she messed up Jiffy corn bread mix when she tried to bake, so she sticks to cleaning).
Anyway, after I got married, I demanded Thanksgiving, which my in-laws didn’t care about because they were getting it catered anyway. But I found out the hard way that they’ve sucked the soul out of my Thanksgiving festivities. One person demanded Stove Top (over fresh sausage dressing?!??!!). Fine. Another prefers roasted turkey (as opposed to smoked or fried). Year after year, they keep telling me to make less food, because they don’t enjoy watching me cook (they think I work too hard, but they also don’t understand that I’m having the time of my life).
At this point, I know that in order to get back to the Thanksgiving that I want to celebrate, it will be after that generation has passed. It’s fine.
I used to start planning my Thanksgiving menu in March, studying recipes and picking and choosing stuff up until like two weeks before hand. Ever since the kids came along, that excitement has also waned. But I’m excited for this year. There will be apple cider mimosas. And I’m roasting a savory pumpkin. And there will be artichokes. Oh and one of my good friends went to Dominique Ansel Kitchen’s pie night this year and had a poached pear chocolate pie that she said was divine. I am attempting to recreate it based on her descriptions of the textures and her pictures. This is what I live for.
(where the fuck is that barney stinson challenge accepted gif when you need it?)
and yes, this year will be my 24th year cooking Thanksgiving dinner.
7.  If you could live in the world of one film, which one would you pick? Oh man. D2: The Mighty Ducks. Ok, I lied. I do have a favorite live action movie. I wish I had a more creative answer to this. Yeah, Harry Potter’s world would be cool. Yeah, I identify with hobbits. Any of the Star Treks would also be good in terms of universes. But I want Adam Banks to teach (13-14 year old) me how to ice skate.
8.  What kind of pet have you never had, but have always wanted? lol one of my bffs and I always wanted a baby panda.
9.  If you won the huge lottery, what would be the first 3 things you’d do?Get a good fucking lawyer, set up a shell foundation so it’s not listed in mine or my husband’s name, prepare to disappear after a couple of years of acting normal. Then, for the more fun three, pay off debt, travel, get a house somewhere the fuck else.
Ceno’s answer was too perfect, so I left it, mainly because I’d pretty much do the same. I’d buy my parents a new house and hire a chauffeur for them. Also @katiekeysburg will get a chauffeur. And I’d throw money at teleportation research. And fund a bunch of gofundmes.
10.  Have you ever gotten a tattoo? What is it? If you haven’t, do you want one? I do not have any but I’ve always wanted one of my Chinese name above my ankle and I’ve always wanted the pi character somewhere (debated various locations). One day, when I get the guts to. (and when it’s seasonally appropriate to get one above my ankle, cuz omg I never knew about the various care required while it heals.)
11.  What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever done? hahaha um. Probably calling the cops on an online friend who I thought was going to kill himself, but he really wasn’t (but I didn’t know that). (hey kids, don’t put your addresses in your aol profiles--yes I’m ancient.) actually, I’ve done my share to stupid aol/online shit. it will probably come back to haunt me if i ever run for public office or marry a celebrity.
Ok, real stupid thing. I’m a severe klutz, and one time I walked off a raised cement slab (like the kind that statues would sit on) and sprained my ankle. It was probably 3 inches off the ground on the side that I got on it, but it was further off the ground on the other side, so when I got off the slab, I misjudged where to put my foot and I rolled my ankle. Ended up at the ER and they put me in a soft cast. I had to have crutches to get around campus and this one guy who I don’t even know his name, picked me up and carried me up the campus hill (we had a really big hill), and it was against my consent. I did NOT want him to pick me up. It was terrible. Anyway, I rolled my ankle by walking. I have tons of stupid shit. How much time you got?
I was also pretty pretentious when I was younger. (I might still be. I’m not as self aware as I wish to be.) I once asked an Italian friend to try my tomato sauce and asked him what was missing because it didn’t taste right. (I know. I was so gross. You learn from your own grossness though.)
What other stupidity? I fawned over boys. My bff gave me a copy of The Giving Tree in college (I had never read it before) as a metaphor of how much of myself I gave to this toxic dude. I sobbed reading it for the first time.
In hindsight, not getting my license at 17 was a pretty stupid move too. But that also had to do with life circumstances.
OH. Turning down an interview for an internship with my dream company at the time, because I had already accepted an internship position with another company.
Trying to explain to my MBA ethics class how my industry worked only to get it mansplained back to me (pretty stupid of me to have tried in the first place).
Going for my MBA was also a pretty stupid move in the holistic view of my life.
12.  Have you accomplished your New Year’s Resolution for 2018? I honestly don’t remember if I even made resolutions, so I’m going to say hard no.
13.  If you could get any degree from any school, free of charge, what would you pick? Criminal Psychology. Ceno, we can go to school together! (this reminds me I need to catch up on last week’s Criminal Minds) Another option would be anything in the forensics sciences. I would also like to learn massage therapy. And I want to take that artisan bread breaking course at the Institute of Culinary Education.
I forget how many people I’m supposed to tag. @katiekeysburg @daisyjm75 @steverogersnotebook

Do you think number 13 is unlucky? No. Do you watch any old films? If so, name a few of your favourites. Through all the years in school and reading classic novels, we would usually watch the movie afterwards, so I've seen a good number and understand why they're classics, like The Outsiders, A Raisin in the Sun, Steel Magnolias... Who are some of your classic era film actors and actresses, if any? I don't know enough, honestly. Do you have any novelty ice cube trays? No. What radio station do you most often listen to? I don't listen to the radio. Have you ever been in a Catholic confessional? Yes, because I was raised Roman Catholic, and it was routine to go occasionally. Those things are so awful. Who was the last non-relative you rode in a vehicle with? Oh wow, I don't know. What movie are you looking forward to coming out? HOCUS POCUS 2!!!!!!!!!!!!! :') What color was the hair of the last person you kissed? HAHAHA he's gonna fuckin hate me for this. He has black hair, but with a bit of gray throughout already. What letter does your last name begin with? D. Have you ever liked someone and never told them? Yep. Do you regret it? Nah. Who was the last person to buy you a drink? You're talking like, a drink drink? In which case, my mother. Who was the last person to buy you dinner? Girt. How old is the oldest person you’ve dated? Idk exactly how old Juan is, but he's probably the oldest? Of the ages I actually remember, that'd be Girt; he'll be 28 next month. Have you ever found a bug in your food? omg noooooo Do you ever read things you wrote as a kid? What were you like? Fuck no, I'd cringe into oblivion. Your boyfriend's birthday is coming up, and you’re totally broke. What do you do? ... Was this written directed at me??? lmao I'm thinking of just trying to draw 2B from Nier: Automata since she's to him what Pyramid Head is to me, ha ha. Would you be content to turn out just like your mom? In most ways, no. If you could pick one topic for everyone in your country to learn more about, what would you pick? Uhhh... Well, it'd be boring as all fuck hell, but I guess politics. Be actually educated on what's going on in the country and vote more wisely. How do you feel about people your age having children? I'm 25. It's normal, and advisable before 30 anyway before the risk of birth defects and problematic pregnancies rise. When was the last time you were at a park? Jeez... the very beginning of this year, I wanna say? I was taking family pictures for someone. Do you feel like going to funerals helps you in the grieving process? I haven't been to nearly enough to know. Especially as an adult. How do you feel about the whole organic food craze? I'm not educated enough on this to have a proper opinion. Who was the last person you heard snore? My mom, at some point. Is there a TV show you’ve wanted to start watching but never gotten around to?

When was the last time you were in denial about something? What about? Idk. Have you ever worn fake eyelashes? If not, would you ever try wearing them? No, but I probably will for my hypothetical wedding. Is there any certain style of architecture you really enjoy? Yeah; Roman, for one. I should be able to list far more, having taken Art History, where architecture played a big part... When’s the last time you made the best of a bad situation? Hm, I dunno. If you watch Parks and Recreation, who is your favorite character? N/A Do you listen to Fall Out Boy? Yeah, they're great. Have you ever been skiing or snowboarding? No. Have you ever forged a note for something at school? No. Are you a YouTube addict? Oh, for sure. I'm always on there. Have you ever found a four leaf clover? Many, actually! It's funny, at our old place, the day my father abandoned my family, I found an actual PATCH of four-leaf clovers right outside. I doubt it meant anything, but it was still cool. From that year on, that spot always had lots of four-leaf ones. Are you good at lighting fires? I wouldn't know. I'm scared to. Name someone who is an excellent listener? Sara. <3 Would you mind living to 100 years old if you were in semi-decent health? Define "semi-decent."

When's the last time you got heartburn? What do you think caused it? I haven't had it in a while because I have to take a prescription antacid. It's embarrassing to admit, but it's because of my weight; chronic heartburn is common for people of my size. I know for sure that it's the culprit in my case, because when I lost a load of weight? It went away and stayed gone until I started gaining weight back. What's your favorite red fruit? Strawberriessss. Do you enjoy sour candies? If so, which ones? omfg yesssss. Give me like ANY sour candy. Would you want a chance to visit Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory? Ha, it's funny, the first thing that came to mind was hell yeah, so long as I could bring my camera. Can you imagine the photographs? Goddamn right I'd try some candy too, but I'm more interested in the art of it all, really. What is one quirk about each of your parents that you can't stand? Dad is easy: he repeats the FUCK out of himself. Like oh my god. He will cycle a conversation by saying the same exact thing so, so many times. As for Mom... I don't know about a quirk that I can't stand. Have you ever suffered from amnesia before? After I awoke from fainting and receiving a concussion, I did briefly. Like I couldn't remember what happened and was just crying, but it came back to me with time. Do you live with roommates? I live with my mother. Does your body feel older than it actually is? My body feels ancient. Were you always picked last in gym class? I wouldn't say last, but I wasn't a first pick, for sure. Has someone close to you ever passed away from cancer? Pets have. My grandmother died of pancreatic cancer, but we were never close, I'd say. Which form of martial arts would you be most interested in trying? Ngl, I don't know almost any names and what moves they entail. Which type of shoe dominates your wardrobe? Converse. The last time you were high, what was it off of? Never been high. Is there a particular sport you follow on a regular basis? No. Are you waiting for something to arrive in the mail? No. Could you date someone who didn’t drive (and didn’t show an interest in ever getting their license, either)? If they had no interest in getting one, I don't think I could. How would you react if your artwork became famous? Cry. A lot. But in a wonderful way. Have you ever seen an alligator in person? Yeah. I love those lil 'ole dinos. Most instances were at the zoo, but I actually very clearly remember seeing one in a watery ditch following Hurricane Floyd when the local zoo was destroyed. The alligators got out. What does the inside of your shower look like? It's a... normal tub/shower? What primary color is your Christmas tree? It's always green. When I have my own place, I reeeaaaally want a black one with faux snowy tips, white garland, and red ornaments. What is the stupidest thing you’ve done to a friend’s pet? Nothing? Have you ever seen a snake in the road? I have. Have you ever been to the Kentucky Derby? No. Have you ever heard a wolf howl? Not in person, no. When in a race, do you usually win? Ya girl doesn't race. I don't remember if I did any as a kid. Do you get sleepy when you ride in the car? Yes. How is your credit rating? I don't have one. Do you know anyone who lives in Hawaii? Yeah, a cousin of mine. What was the last phone conversation you had about? I was giving someone permission to talk to my mother about some financial stuff. How spicy do you like your food? Spicy, but not as hot as I used to enjoy. I've come to a point where I want to focus more on enjoying the food than the adrenaline of fighting the heat of what I'm eating. When was the last time you were in a very good mood? Two days ago when my boyfriend came over and we were watching some shows together. Who is at your house right now? Just Mom and me. Have you faced any of your fears lately? I mean, it's nothing major at all, but signing myself in and out of doctor appointments gives me anxiety. My mom used to do it for me, but I've been doing it for awhile now. Have you slept next to the last person you kissed? No. We both needed a nap the other day, but we've agreed sleeping together while my nightmares are being figured out is a very bad idea in case I lash out in my sleep and hurt him because I would fucking sob. Has your father met the boy you currently love? Yeah. But not everyone loves boys, you know. Are you closer with your siblings or cousins? Siblings. I barely ever see my cousins because my extended family doesn't live in NC. How many people have you really fell for? Three. Last thing to make you smile? Some stupid meme on Facebook lol. Does the person you like, like you too? Ye! Next event you’ll wear a dress to: Idk. Is there someone in your past you thought you’d never get over, and then did? Believe this shit or not... I haven't been thinking of Jason as much lately. I VERY much doubt I'll ever be totally over him, but I'm very much focused on and into my current boyfriend. How many arguments have you had with the last person you dated? We've actually never argued. Your girlfriend/boyfriend buys you flowers, you say? With our sense of humor, I'd probably say some shit like, "You killed them for me?" in an adoring voice, ha ha. Describe your life in one word? Dull. Did the last person you kiss have a tattoo? No, but he wants a sleeve tattoo AND I AM SO FUCKING FOR IT Were you intoxicated the last time you threw up? Nope.

ZAY MAVERICK INTERVIEW. 1. How did you get into photography ? I first got into photography in september of 2016. i was going to a trade school called EMCC for photography. I’ve always loved movies and cinema and the thought of documenting everything was always so cool to me. so i was like fuck it ima go to this school for the next two years, for photography and see what happens hahaha. Ive always been into color theory & art, and especially fashion & music. it all ties in with photography you know. so i know i had to do something in that realm. all my friends make music so i was like well i’m always around music, so i might as well just document & see what happens. So at first i would just take a bunch pictures of my friends. i thought i was such hot shit. I had no clue what i was doing but it felt right somehow. 2. What was your first camera that you picked up ? And how does it differ from what you’re using now ? Sheeeesh um the first camera i ever picked up was a nikon d60, it was the one the trade school gave me for the year. I was super nervous because i felt like i was gonna get made fun of because i had no idea what i was doing hahahahaha. didn’t kno anything about photography at that point. but i’ve always been a visual person even with learning things like in school, i just had to “see” how it was done with like images or something. idk. But now, like i’m really good with digital & all that but i’ve always wanted to shoot with film, so that’s what i’ve been using for a while now. 3. Digital or film and why ? Film anyday. At the school i was going to, we only used digital and i was like i really wanna shoot film tho that’s kinda what i came here for. So outside of school one day i just bought myself like a bunch of film cameras. i think i have like 9 or 10 now. But i just taught myself how to shoot film, studied it, and even took some classes on b&w film too, just to make sure i really knew what i was doing. I got OD serious with it as soon as i noticed how fun it was. with film, the pictures just come out more raw & genuine. in the moment type shit. you can’t go back and check if the picture was fire or not, u just kinda gotta hope your lighting was right, everything was in focus, your composition came out good, etc. With film it’s like a “hit or a miss” , but once you notice your hitting more than your missing, then you know ur doing something really good. 4. Who or what has influenced your style of photography ? Music helps a ton. it plays a big part in everything in my life. for most shoots i put on music. it just helps. and now since i take pics of artist it just reflects on how much music really effects me. I love it. Old movies & cinema & cut scenes and shit like that also helped my style with photography. i can think of a scene from a movie or a music video that i love and just try to recreate with my own style added to it. I get really inspired from movies. Some of my favorites are “ Palo Alto” & “Dazed and Confused”. I just try have to have really strong colors in every shot too. Other than that i just find influence in myself. in some shots you can tell how important that picture was to me, just by the quality of the picture. 5. What has been your proudest and most memorable moment since you’ve began your career my proudest moment was when i went to xxl. they had me sign the red stereo block that all the rappers signed, i took some pictures there and talked to everyone there and just built great relationships. i was already in contact with them for a while and they told me to come through which was nice. shout out xxl, they always show love, i fuck with them heavy. They actually just had me take flicks for their freshman show in nyc which was fire. And my most memorable moment since i’ve started my career was when i shot carti. if you know me, you know playboi is like my favorite artist so when i took a couple of flicks of him it made me realize that this is exactly what i want to do, for a long time. 6. Who has been your favorite person to shoot with and why ? my favorite person to shoot with is probably my brother, & favorite artist, Tyreckdagoat. We been bestfriends for like ten years now. So we just have this super genuine connection so it just makes things go smoother. He’s super comfortable behind the camera too and goofy so that just makes the flicks come out even more fye. Also shooting with my bro Leigh Paris is always fun. I always been a fan of his music & found out about him through instagram in early 2016. We met around last summer in soho and just instantly clicked. We been best friends ever since then. The both of them just know exactly what to do behind a camera. I really don’t have to direct them or anything. They’re always in their own little world when we shoot. Shout out to the both of them. 7. What’s your creative process like ? i just try to put out the most genuine content. i hate staged pictures. i want them to mostly be off guard but if not i just want them to be as comfortable as they can behind a camera. eye contact is key. so the work that i put out literally represents that person, in one picture. by their facial expression or whatever they’re doing. i try to have every picture directly reflecting their personality. i think i did that best with the post malone pictures. easily. 8. Does your preferences of Music influence your pictures and how ? yes hahaha a bunch.. i mostly listen to rap but i really do listen to everything (except country). you can catch me bumping playboi carti one second than bieber the next then like earth wind & fire or something. it just varies all over the place i like all genres. especially with a specific artist, sometimes the music that they make directly reflects in a picture i take of them. i try to do that a lot too. idk, but i just kno that music influences me a lot. 9. What other talents do you have ? i swear i can sing. ask Anthony Iglesia. we do duets in the Wegmans parking lot every now & then hahahahaha. But nah in all seriousness i mean i can hoop. Ball was life before any of this to be honest. You can catch me at the east rochester courts every now & then. 10. Who would you like to capture in the future? bro i wanna shoot obama so bad. also Odell Beckham. and lil skies, i really like his aesthetic. of course like drake & kanye n stuff like that but i really wish i took flicks of xxxtentaction or michael jackson before they passed shit is crazy. RIP X! 11. What would be your dream job that has to do with photography ? i want to go on tour with an artist more than anything. That’s my #1 goal right now. Or becoming Justin Bieber’s personal photographer. That would be dope. Also to have a photo exhibit this year or next & a photo book of my best work. That’s going to happen real soon. Aside from that, I really want to get into directing music videos & movies. after i’m satisfied with my photography career & accomplished everything I wanted to do with photography i’ll def look into directing. That’s a move for sure. 12. Where can people view your extensive portfolio of portraits ? i’m currently making a website of all my work. i’ve been slacking on that but i’ve been super busy lately. but be on the look out for that. there will be poster sized prints up for sale for most pictures too so it’s lit. but for now you can see all my work on my instagram & twitter, @zaymaverick.
