#jumbo beach ball

[generalsnivy]

After a long day of playing with their lovely jumbo beach ball, Sylveon decided to hop on top of it and take a nap. Surprisingly, it makes for a very comfortable bed too, perfect for nap time.

I honestly didn't think I'd be able to put this together at all! Considering that this was done using Krita on my old school laptop, which is slow AF, just running Windows 10 by itself, it's a pretty big accomplishment for the little laptop that could! The reason why I used my laptop is that my primary desktop PC broke on me recently, again, and it's out for repairs...again! I also didn't want to use my Amazon Fire Tablet as that is not only slow too, (albeit, not as slow as my laptop, but still sluggish.) but Krita isn't available on the Amazon Fire Tablet without modifications or sideloading the app. Plus, the only "good" drawing program on offer isn't good enough for my needs as its stabilizer is far too weak for my unsteady hand and horrendous handwriting. Not only that, but the software is a little buggy with its group layers. Regardless, I wanted to make this work somehow and thankfully, I did.

Despite the slow performance, I had fun drawing Sylveon and their jumbo beach ball! When it came to getting the pose I needed, I winged it for the most part. I had never seen a Sylveon sleeping in the Superman pose as seen with dogs in real life so, I figured that Sylveon would look cuter if I drew them like this. I'm not sure if Sylveons have paw pads or not, so I figured that I'd give them some, just to be safe. I read Sylveon's biology section on Bulbapedia and it didn't mention anything about them having paw pads. Regardless if they have them canonically or not, they turned out great here, in my opinion. I also really loved how the Love Ball jumbo beach ball turned out as I had a lot of fun playing with the shading effects by changing brush styles from Normal to Screen, Multiplay, Overlay, etc all throughout the ball and Sylveon itself, especially when used in combination with a regular digital pen brush and the airbrush! Chef's kiss!

Funny enough, I originally planned on drawing something else. But, after going out to see a movie with Mom one day, returning home, and then scrolling through Twitter, I got an idea for a new drawing and decided to draw this instead. I still plan on finishing the other one, but that'll be done another time. (Unless it's published before this one goes live, in which case, this is completely irrelevant.) It's funny how things can change on a whim, depending on circumstances that occur, am I right.

[sichore]

[I haven't written in years and bam - 1200 words off the dome of whatever idea I've got rattling around.

Pickles goes to the ocean.]

As usual, Pickles is pulled from sleep by a dull throb in his head and in his groin. Try as he might to ignore it, he can't ignore instinct: he has to piss.

With a groan, he opens his eyes and stumbles from the beach chair and over various passed out bodies strewn across the sand to find some place to empty his bladder. Which ends up being some decor half destroyed by whatever the guys were up to a few hours ago. Whatever.

It's the dead of night. All he can make out is the blue of the sand, and the black of the sea beyond. If it wasn't for the crashing waves, he'd think he was looking out into the abyss.

The abyss, and - he blinks a few times, his squinting, blurry vision focusing on a figure in the ocean.

That's -

"Oh! Hey! Heyyyyyy!"

His need to go out there overrides the seed of panic in his gut, as he sprints across the beach with about as much grace as a newborn foal taking its first steps. Stumbling, tripping, he hardly falters once he breaks water, wading until he reaches them.

The [scribe].

No, wait, that's what Nathan keeps calling her, when she's not a journalist or whatever. Right. She's an art teacher. Toki's tutor. [Painter].

… why was her name not coming to mind? Whatever. Not important, clearly.

"Hey, what're you - you, uh, okay out here?"

"Hey," she greets him, casual as ever, like she's not standing in the middle of the goddamn ocean. "I'm all right. No freaking out or deep, soul-wrenching breakdown this time."

She's just standing there, looking out at fuck knows what - everything to the horizon and back is complete darkness. Onyx. Ebony. Blacker than the blackest black times infinity.

She turns her head to look at him finally, her round glasses flashing with the movement. Her lips move and - he's not sure any sound comes out. Her mouth doesn't form his name and yet he recognizes it all the same, spoken with a familiarity and acceptance that feels dangerously close to affection. Pickles.

"I think it's happening," she says, like it's the most obvious announcement in the world.

"Uh… dude, there's nothing going on," Pickles replies, feeling sick as he says it.

"Yeah you do. You know, this. Us. Whatever we're supposed to do." She shrugs, and Pickles realizes he hasn't stopped looking her over. Nothing seems out of the ordinary. Her dark curls as usual are pulled up and spilling over and around her face, like she hasn't been to bed. Starlight catches on her brown skin, shimmering, silver, then gold. The corner of her full lips quirks - she's trying not to laugh.

"Cut that out. Look."

He Looks.

Stars glimmer and shine beneath their bare feet. Pickles wriggles his toes and he swears that a nebula swells in response. They're everywhere. Galaxies unfurl and sway in the cosmic breeze and stars twinkle and shine and burn and die. He can't look away from the radiant giant of a far off planet, long dead. There's an explosion frozen in time, blooming and swirling cosmic dust blessing the birth of a new star that cries out, wailing, ringing -

He hears…

He hears -

"Ohhh shit…"

He grasps her shoulder; she's freezing, scorching under his grip. His eyes dart around even though he doesn't see so much as feel Them.

He's not high enough for this shit and tonight they're fucking loud, and he can't ignore them, can't get away, can't -

"It's okay." Pickles can't tell if she's talking to him or not. She's holding herself, nails digging into her arms, and without the glasses her brown eyes are - are black, too. Fuck. "I-it's okay."

"Is it?!" Pickles shrieks. "How can you be so calm with this - this cosmic mumbo jumbo bullshit going on? Oh my god. Oh my god, I - I need a drink. Fuck." His hand shakes as it runs through his dreads, thinking this is the worst time to have a panic attack where he can't hide from Their Song, dick and balls out for the world to see like this is some hentai -

"We're gonna be okay." She's speaking, her voice resonating into infinity. Huh. He didn't think the universe would have great acoustics. "We're - what? What do you know about hentai?"

"How would I not know about it?"

"You barely use the computer!"

"Wh - And? I've been around! I've seen old tapes and shit!"

"I just thought it was a bit past your time-"

"Yer not that much younger than me!"

"Oh, my god. Whatever. That's beside the point." She waves her hands and finally turns to face him, and for a moment, he's distracted from the inky black dancing in her eyes.

"... Huh, so it's two snakes on yer tits-"

"Pickles." She's claps her hands before her face and takes a deep breath, like she's praying for the strength to deal with his bullshit. She wouldn't be the first one, he thinks bitterly. "Stop that. Focus. I want to be here."

"Do you really? And how come you can hear me but I can't hear you? That ain't fair!"

"I don't know, you're loud as hell here and I can't turn it off. Look!" Her hands frame his face suddenly, more of a double-slap than a caress. Pickles stills.

Everything goes quiet, blessedly so, and calm washes over him. It's not dreadful this time. There's the universe, and there's him. Breathing in time with the rise and fall of the Great Breath.

"Oh, hey, that's…. That's kinda nice."

"Yeah," she agrees, and despite the nameless dread lapping at his mind he finds himself staring at her face. Her hair loose and waving in the current. Eyes rich like fine whiskey and summer afternoons. Nose wide and nostrils flaring as she stifles another laugh, but she's smiling. Like really smiling, not awkward and forced. Their secret. He promises not to tell. "Freaky, but nice."

"So, uh, now what?" 

"I dunno. We listen, then… do what we do best? What we have to do. Or something."

"Like what, pop a Perc, smoke a bowl? Freaky sex?"

"I - what? No. What? I mean, uh, another time, maybe. No, like, there's something bigger going on."

"Uh huh." He's not sure when he starts holding her hands, but here he is. Idly rubbing his thumbs over her knuckles. "Is… is this the end?"

"No." She shakes her head, which is something to witness underwater. Stars fall from her curls - or embers. "It's the beginning. Just don't mind the tentacles."

"Yeeeeah, I dunno about that."

"And don't look down."

Of course, he looks down. The last place he needs to look when he feels Their tendrils beckoning, slipping down his spine - and himself reaching in turn, with his brain. Or something. Is his mind literally expanding? Shit.

There's heat coming from somewhere. Everywhere. A distant flame that he knows is an inferno. And beneath his feet, a planet looms. He stands above it as a moon, a satellite, space debris and sky hawk all at once. He sees clouds form and waves churn. He feels the Deep, reaching up to call him home.

Pickles' stomach drops as he plummets.

🐩🌸Foofie: A magnificent choice for our Filipino’s Inktober topic. Do forgive myself while I’m in “fashionably invisible” to just stroll along. Also I may have times with Wilson like chasing balls at the beach; from previous art trade appearances since April 2024. (Link Here) We’re still remaining as friends. Besides, my heart already belongs to the the nicest and smartest mouse we’d met since kindergarten. 😊 So, where pretty much okay as being “pup pals”. 🐶

🐘🎮🧹Jumbo: Hope so. As for myself, it was rather cool like having an invisible phase on here. Imagine like Solid Snake if only I had the right camouflaged material to cover up. I don’t wanna to freak out my dad whether it was cleaning day as well.

🐆Jo: Or not to skip leg day by not wearing the bagged version of my clothes. It wasn’t good for my exercise and it’s not because that I’m in invisible. Believe me. 🙄😑👎 Also, I didn’t bring my own A/W clothes as of yet; much like to others like my deer friend Emme or Jazzy’s. At least my pal did a nice job portraying myself when using normal bagged clothes instead. Though I had to change it back as it’s simply not doing work where I’m in jogging exercises. 😅

Oceanside

Wednesday, June 14, 2023

Life on the Oceanside is different than life on the Bayside.

Bayside and Oceanside refer to the west and east coast of Assateague Island, respectively. There are a number of bays between the mainland and the island, the largest being Chincoteague Bay.

On the Bayside, where we usually camp, the Carolina wren welcomes the day. The campsites are nestled among stands of trees. The beaches are few and narrow and short. The soft sandy bottom spreads out for hundreds of yards at only a foot or two deep. Families wade out together, grandparents, parents, teenagers, and toddlers just barely old enough to walk, protected by colorful wide-brimmed hats. Kayaks paddle in between the waders. The woods behind the beach are lush and thick and filled with life. Wild horses commute across the campground on their way between their watering holes and the stands of salt water cord grass with which they will make their lunch.

On the Oceanside, the laughing gulls chortle back and forth to each other. The campsites are tucked in here and there between the dunes. The beaches are long and straight and a hundred yards wide. They welcome the Atlantic which sends waves crashing ashore from Greenland and Europe and Africa and the Straights of Magellan. Crabs have refreshed their holes overnight. Crab tracks dot the sand. Bare footprints attest to sand squishing sensuously between the toes of some thoughtful early morning stroller. In the early light, Dora has free reign to run wild across the sand alone, as fast as she pleases. Dora finds old sandcastles which still have a human scent. She tries to chase laughing gulls through the air. The rangers maintain the boardwalks out to the beach each morning with leaf blowers to whisk away the sand that has drifted in overnight.

Dora and Tim take a ball out to the beach at dawn.

They have a ball playing catch.

Dora hides on the dunes waiting for the next throw.

Back at camp, some horses stroll by.

For lunch we treated ourselves to a meal at The Bayside Skillet in Ocean City Maryland. They are famous for their crepes. We split their trademark seafood crepe, a blend of jumbo lump crab, tender shrimp and sweet sea scallops with velvety cream sauce. Best. Crepe. Ever. Dora was remarkably well-behaved under the table on the outside deck of the restaurant.

We did some shopping and then headed out onto the beach in our 9,500-pound beach buggy.

Airing down (deflating our tires temporarily for better driving on sand) revealed that one of our valve stems was sticky and will need repair. No worries. We finished airing down, and Jeanne drove us to a nice wide open spot where Dora can run and run.

We try to play ball again, but it is too hot for Dora, and way too windy to do much more than shelter in the lee of the RV and cuddle with lap puppies. We stay until dinner time, air back up, and head for our newest in a series of Bayside campsites.

After dinner a Ukrainian man hails us from the next campsite asking to borrow our bug "REP-ellent" as he has misplaced his. We exchange stories about how hard it is to reserve a single campsite for more than one day. Happily both of us have our current site for two in a row.

[gay-chef-boyardee]

MEAT TIER LIST BREAKDOWN

Some facts about me before we start: I have a mild allergy to the seasoning they put on store bought seafood, so I can only eat certain brands. This may affect the final results. I have an Iron deficiency, and crave red meat. This may affect the final results.

S TIER:

Steak: Steak is probably my favorite meat of all time. I don’t think there’s a single moment in my life I ever went ‘hm, I’m not feeling steak right now’. You can cook it any way, and it’ll be delicious. Though personally, my favorite is grilled with a bit of steak sauce. If it’s well done, then you have a perfect stir fry add on. If it’s medium, then you’ve got a good steak! Rare? It’s juicy, and tender! Blue? A risk taker, I see, though you have good taste. And the best part about steak is undoubtably the juice it leaves. When you’ve finished your steak, you have a whole plate of tasty red juice you can put on baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, broccoli, or eat by itself! I love steak. 10/10

Crab: I grew up on the beach, so I’ve been eating freshly caught crab since I was little. I used to make my parents cut the eyes off the crab before I cracked it open with a hammer because it made me feel bad to see it looking at me, but now that I look back on it that makes me feel worse?? Anyways, most of the crab is pretty meh, but woah, that hidden meat. It’s the tiny bit of meat at the butt end of the crab, right under the gills, and it’s fucking godly. It’s sweet, and savory, and amazing. Don’t just go out and buy it from the store, you have to eat it freshly boiled to really experience the hidden meat. I believe it’s normally called jumbo lump, but I always called it hidden meat. Anyways, eating crab is an experience you should have in your life time. 9/10

Shrimp: I. Fucking. Love. SHRIMP. I love shrimp. I love how fun they are to eat, I love their stupid little crust you have to eat around, I love them. Buy a ring from the grocery store (I’m allergic to the bag kind), pop em’ in some hot water to melt the ice, and eat up. They’re amazing. Any time I’ve had a new food I love, and didn’t know what was in it, it always ended up being shrimp. Unfortunately, a point is deducted for being bugs and having the legs that make me squimish. 8/10

A TIER:

Brotwursts: Brotwursts are just better sausages. They’re big, enough for a whole meal on their own, and they always cook up nice. Also, whenever I eat them, I hear ‘Doofenshmirtz quality brotwursts’ jingle in my mind. 7/10

Chicken: It’s chicken. Everyone’s had chicken. It ranges in quality, but it’s never bad. You know what chicken tastes like, and chicken is A tier. 7/10

Filet Mignon: I’m gonna be honest, I’m not a fan of filet mignon. I always buy it on special occasions because it’s expensive and it feels good to ball out (by ball out I mean spend twenty dollars on a steak), but it’s just mid. It has a noticably different flavor than a standard ribeye or new york strip, but it’s just… eh. It’s more tender, but it’s lacks that oomph that other steaks have. I feel like if I drank wine with it and pretended I was eating out, then it would be better, but wine gives me headaches. 6/10

Mushrooms: I like mushrooms. Stuffed mushrooms, breaded mushrooms, they’re all good. My standard way of cooking them is with salt and pepper and a bit of worcestershire sauce. They’re a good side, especially with steak, but they could never be their own meal. I haven’t had mushrooms such as the chicken of the woods or the giant puffball like I’ve seen reccomended in foraging circles, only the grocery store white kind and some porterbellas I wasn’t a fan of, but I’ll update this when I do finally get my hands on some. 7/10

B TIER:

Hamburger: I like hamburgers. Granted, my standard order is only two buns and a patty, maybe with some cheese if I’m feeling frisky. I’ve never had a homemade patty that I really enjoyed, though. They’re always either oozing juice or burnt to a crisp. And while there is an argument for both of those, I don’t want to take a bit of my burger and have a tsunami hit the back of my throat. 6/10

Ham: When most people cook ham, they always either make a honey glazed, or an unseasoned ham. While honey glazed is good, It’s a bit too sweet for my taste, and unseasoned is boring. But! I do love deli meat ham. Paper thin slices off the bone ham is to die for, I buy like three or four pounds at a time just because I know I’m going to end up eating entire bags in one sitting. 6/10

Salmon: I’m not a salmon fan yet. Every time I eat salmon, I start to like it a little bit more. It’s got a very refreshing taste, but my favorite is with a bit of lemon juice. And by a bit I mean a lot. Girly is SOAKED when I finally get a forkful. I also like how it just pulls apart, it makes my lizard brain happy especially since cutting the food is the worst part of a meal. Someday salmon will be up there, but right now, it’s just okay. 5/10

Salami: Salami tastes pretty good. It’s a nice type of sausage, and I like to eat it as a snack, but my beef is with PEPPERONI. I always eat too much and it makes my mouth hurt because I’m a wimp with no spice tolerance :( 6/10

C TIER:

Chicken Patty: I’m going to count chicken nuggets for this one as well. Chicken burgers are okay, not great by any means, but fine. Chicken nuggets are also really good. But you eat so many of them and they stop tasting like chicken anymore, and start tasting like hunger. I’m pretty sure I’m 50% chicken nugget at this point, and I don’t even know if I like them. 5/10

Lobster: If someone unsuccesfully tried to fuse crab and shrimp. I had it once at a club and I genuinely can’t place a single adjective to describe it’s taste. Like, I’d eat it if I was hungry enough, but it also made me throw up on the way home. 4/10

Pork Chop: I hate pork chops, straight up. I actually went pork free for a while because of a bad experience with a pork chop, but I said it was for a diet cause I’m a fake ass little bitch like that. It’s always either dry or juicy, and neither works for it. The fat doesn’t cook off, and it just makes me sad. I’ve never had a good pork chop, and probably never will, but at least it’s not the worst form of pork. 4/10

Rib: Okay, imagine with me. You’re in a really loud restaurant with your parents as a teenager, and your ears hurt and you’re tired and the lights are too bright, and nothing on the menu looks good. Eventually, a waitress comes up to you, and asks what your table wants. Everyone places their orders, and when she finally gets to you, you stumble through thoughts and just say ‘the ribs’. Half an hour later, your ribs get there and you cry. Because this night just got worse. They’re either dry (a common symptom of meat on this list), or slathered in sauce. Pray it’s not the latter, or else you’ll end up running to the bathroom to wash a metric fuckton of sauce off your mouth and hands and neck that leaves you with a rash for days. After fiddling with how to hold your rack of ribs, you finally take a bite and… it’s fucking mid. It’s mid. It tastes like pork pretending to be steak. It hurts to eat, because you have to unhinge your jaw around the bone and nibble bits of meat off, and you end up absolutely stuffed after just two of the four. 4/10

D TIER:

Bacon: Bacon sucks. It’s the unhealthiest part of the pig, for one. And for another, it’s not even tasty. It tastes like grease. If you cook it for too long, it’s crumbly. If you don’t cook it long enough, it’s flimsy. If you somehow manage to time it to the microsecond and cook it perfectly, congrats! It’s still fucking shit. It tastes disapointing, and that is the worst crime. 3/10

Bologna: Be honest, have you ever enjoyed bologna? We all had the same pack in the fridge when we were kids, yellow backdrop and all. And there was always that one kid who for some reason wreaked of bologna?? It’s not even a strong smelling food like dude how did you end up like that??? Deli ham is superior. 2/10

Turkey: Why do we celebrate thanksgiving with a turkey. It sucks. It feels like a sad food. Even if it’s not the breast, even deli turkey sucks. You can taste the poor living conditions of the bird. 3/10

F TIER:

Hotdogs: Everyone looks at hotdogs in the store and thinks ‘wow hotdogs yum’, and they buy a pack, and when they get home, it’s always upsetting. It tastes like what’s in it, be it boiled steamed or fried, pig heart and cow liver. 2/10

Spam: Meat should not come in a can meat should not come in a can meat should not come in a can meat should 1/10

[tiger-in-the-flightdeck]

Hey! How’s it going? I saw that you were doing Halloween asks!

I’d love to see your take on April on Halloween shapeshifting into her own costume, Spidergirl blue but scarier (and smaller since she is almost 7)

This ended up being the whole family. Because I am out of control.

The boys were running back and forth in the living room, chasing each other around. Dylan had spent the last week making his costume, after changing his mind a dozen times throughout the month leading up to the big night. Now he seemed to be an amalgam of a near dozen superheroes -some fictional, some on their holiday card list- and wanted to make sure he could move quickly in it. Sleeper had insisted that simply changing his shape would be cheating, and now looked like a little boy wearing a duct tape and cardboard box robot costume, and kept tripping over the flaps. Each time he fell, a puff of pheromones gusted off of him and filled the room with annoyance. 

“Father,” he whined, dripping out of the seams in his costume to pull himself back into his usual feline form. “I need more tape.” 

“Just a second, buddy,” Eddie said around a mouthful of safety pins he was using to try to keep his own costume from falling apart. He had flexed to show off in the mirror, and split his Robin Hood costume across the shoulders and Venom refused to let him leave without his sleeves in place. He put the final pin into the chintzy cloth and declared himself suitable before turning back to his son. “Okay, what’s wrong?” he asked, crouching down gingerly. It wouldn’t do to tear out the seat of his tights now. 

Sleeper flicked his tail against the flap that had defeated him and sulked. “I should have used tin foil.” 

“Hey, now that’s a great idea. We can wrap it all up, and you’ll be extra toasty warm, too.” Eddie scratched the top of the little Symbiote’s head and went to the kitchen to find a jumbo roll of foil. “Babe?” he called as he checked the drawers and cupboards. “Do you have all the bags ready?” Holding the roll triumphantly, Eddie trotted back to the living room. 

A rustle and thump followed by a curse sounded from the hall closet, and was Eddie’s only answer until Venom oozed out, trailing several glow in the dark tote bags with grinning pumpkins and puffed up cats on them. “These will not hold enough candy,” he complained. “I told you to get bigger ones.” 

“We can run them back to the house to empty them, if we have to.” Eddie taped the foil down and stood the boxes back up for Sleeper to inspect. “Go get Ape, so we can head out. I want to get to the Manchester’s place before the teenagers start messing with the decorations. You’ll love ‘em.” 

In her room, April was glowering at a sparkly tulle princess tutu that had seemed like a great idea when she first asked her parents to make it, but now seemed like a scratchy monstrosity of glitter and discomfort. Even with extra layers, the elastic waistband pinched too tightly, the tulle brushed against her fingers when she walked, and who even wanted to dress up like a princess anyway when she could have been something cool like a werewolf or a bunch of grapes. 

“Little One?” Venom sent a soft pulse of warning down the connection between them then poked himself through the keyhole in her door to check that she was all right. “You’re not dressed. We will be leaving soon, you have to hurry.” 

“I’m not going,” April declared and crossed her arms over her chest and hoped Venom wouldn’t take her up on it. “My costume doesn’t look right.” 

Venom came the rest of the way through the hole and plopped onto the floor before taking up a mostly human form. “What’s the matter with it?” 

“It’s just… I don’t wanna be a princess anymore.” 

“Then you don’t have to be.” Venom pulled himself in, shifting and throbbing for a moment until he looked like a large snarling mastiff. Then a small dragon. Then a beach ball. 

April giggled and tugged at the cuffs of her shirt. “But Sleeper said it was cheating.” 

“Your brother just wanted to make something. You don’t have to.” He allowed himself to lose his form completely to caress tendrils over his daughter’s cheeks and through her hair. “I am sure you will choose something suitably frightening for the occasion.” 

The boys were waiting at the door for them. Eddie had rent another tear in his costume, this time across his thigh, and given up trying to keep it together. If it survived the night, he’d be happy. A pile of foil wrapped boxes was rocking from side to side, beeping and chirping cheerfully, and Captain SuperShazBatHulkFalcMan was fidgeting with his sword-shield-hammer combo. 

“You look great, pumpkin,” Eddie beamed when April stepped out from behind Venom. She was tiny, and blue, with black webs across her face and arms. “C’mere, it’s going to be a long trip. Wanna ride my shoulders?” 

April grew long talons from her fingers and used them to climb up Eddie’s back to position herself comfortably at the back of his neck. 

She’d try the princess tutu next year.

Fluff

DWC 2022 (August) Day 5 - Fluff / Shiver

---

Early morning after the Wonderlight Ball, during the Tournament of Ages.

After a night of dancing, enjoying performances, coming down from the thrill of the awards and finishing all that up with some stargazing...Phe was absolutely wasted. Barely just after ditching her dress and jewellery, she’d crashed onto the bed, in the embrace of some jumbo plushies they’d recently bought...and won. Granted, there wasn’t much space left for her in the bed, let alone Barry - so she was sleeping in a rather awkward position, the plushies having taken up the majority of the space.  The grand item haul that had been discarded on the floor, still in bags, could be put away at a later time. Right now? Pheonix was too tired to function.

Trying his best to climb into the bed, Barry huffed and pushed the giant hyena plushie to the side - getting a mumble out of Phe as she barely stirred. Grabbing her arm, he tugged her and huffed louder. “Babe, I can’t breathe in this fluff.”

Letting out another mumble and a sleepy groan, Phe shifted a little as Barry pulled on her arm - causing one of the plushies to roll to the side slightly. “What.” Scrunching her face up, she tried to open her eyes. “Whasgoinon.”

“I can’t fuckin snug ya.” Barry squirmed a little closer to her, but it was still rough. Like trying to climb a mountain in his tired, exhausted state. “There’s too many animals. And I can’t even find Lil B.”

Wrinkling her nose, Phe moved an arm to rub at her face so she could kind of look at him. Sleep was still trying to grip at her. “Hh-oh...B...did he even join us?” She couldn’t remember. Last night had been a lot. “What time is it...?” Sitting up, she pushed the plushies over to give Barry some space.  “Gods...we do need more space, huh?”

“It’s late...we can’t pass out like this.” Late being, super stupid early in the morning, at least. Barry looked around at the collection that had started to grow each time there was an event, and certain plushie stalls. Especially those that sold jumbo ones. Winning the other two in the gumball machine was just...dumb luck. “We can talk about moving in the mornin?” He reached over to find Phe’s face to pat.

When Barry reached for her, she pulled him closer now that there was enough space for the both of them. Well, barely still. One plushie probably found it’s unfortunate place on the floor. “Heh.” She chuckled quietly. “Mmm, at first it was a joke...but...maybe a move wouldn’t be too bad.” She finished her sentence as she curled into him.

Wrapping an arm around her, Barry scoffed lightly. “I like the shack but we need more space. We have so many children now.” He teased with a small laugh.

Phe sighed. “I like it too. Pandaria’s a lovely place but...” She hummed, thinking back to Zuldazar and the beaches around Booty Bay and Stranglethorn. However, when Barry teased her about the plushies being their children, she laughed and pushed his face a little.

“Oh shut up. I don’t see you complaining about them.” The words were barely out of her mouth when she’d be interrupted from any further conversation by a barrage of loud chirps and chatters. Lil B had arrived, and was making his presence known. Make room for Little B, you heathens.

Barry chuckled again as she pushed on his face. “I’m complaining now! It was hard to snug you! Gods forbid, B’s just as bad sometimes.” Speak of the otter and he shall appear. He looked over as the little guy chirped his way on up onto the bed. “Aw, he’s mad at you.”

“Guess we need a bigger bed!” The solution could always be just putting the plushies on the floor, or elsewhere. But who wanted that? She was going to lean in for a sneaky kiss, but Lil B was already pushing himself up between the two of them - wriggling his way in. Fortunately for him, he was the cutest cockblock. “No he’s not.” By the way Lil B flopped over, it was time for pets and attention. And he’d get just that.

Barry raised a brow as he reached down to pet the otter. “The plushies need their own bed.” Watching Lil B for a moment, he chuckled. “Maybe he’s excited we’re home again.”

 “They need their own room! A room dedicated to plushies.” Phe snickered, just imagining it. But she’d trail off for a moment of silence as she looked to Lil B, making himself comfortable in between them. “...You know. You joke about children, but I think we already have one. And yeah, I think he is. We’ve barely been home all week.” She had brought Lil B along to a market in a baby sling that one time.

“A whole room, damn. What kind of new place were you thinking of?” Barry asked, and then rolled his eyes. “Eh probably. That’s what pets are for. We could have brought him to chill in a tent or something.” He gave a light shrug of his shoulder.

“Mm...a shack like this. Maybe a bigger bungalow, more coastal, you know? This place is great for location with Marble and the Cloud Serpents near by...but I think she’d be okay now moving somewhere else.” Phe sighed, trying to get at least a little bit closer to Barry without disturbing the otter.  “Maybe could find somewhere with a good place to properly dock the ship...” They’d be leaving on adventures on that soon, no doubt. She could feel it. A little laugh at Barry’s late recommendation on the tent. “You think he would have stayed in there though?” Lil B would have been unleashed on the entirety of ToA, whether Phe and Barry wanted him to be or not.

“May need something more than this.” Barry moved his arm a little bit more under Phe to bring her in closer for those quality snuggles. “We can take a look around the coast before anywhere else. Oh, if we could find a place for the ship, that’d be nice.” He then snickered at the thought of the otter at ToA, and not staying in the tent. “Oh true. He’d go out and steal hearts and coins.”

“Mm, since going to Zuldazar though...” Phe began to muse. “I kind of fell in love with the place. If we can set up there, that’d be cool. Otherwise, maybe go back to your roots for a bit? Obviously not smack bang in Booty Bay, but I’m sure we can find some land for ourselves somewhere.” She smiled at him, enjoying the closeness.  As Lil B chattered away, she chuckled and scratched his head. “Watch out, he’ll take your job.”

“Zuldazar would be nice. Bit out of the way though, so it’s something to think about.” The idea was tempting, however. Plenty of adventures to have in Zuldazar. “Oh? Yeah, maybe Booty Bay. It can be a bit rough though. We could look around...” He nodded as he thought about it. “Pfft. Then he should wear the Tart tabard.” Barry scoffed at Lil B.

“Somewhere a little more private, at least. I like that about living out here.” Despite the Jade Temple and a fishing village nearby, the Shack did have a good bit of privacy to it. Phe chuckled and rested her head against him. “Besides, I think we suit more beachy vibes anyway.” Pandaria was lovely, but not beachy. “Oh hey that’s an idea. I should give him a little glittery pink bandana.”

“Oh yeah, private is important for me too. Besides our howling and wild sex, I like people not knowing my business.” Barry smirked, and then perked up at the idea of the beach, the smirk shifting into a lighter smile. “Mmm, we should look at some beaches...” Giving Lil B some more pats, he scoffed at the idea of the Tart tabard, but hey, he’d encourage it. “Yeah! Totally. I’ll write him an application and he can be the new ringleader.”

At the mention of howling, Phe raised a brow and looked up at him. “Who the fuck howls?” It wasn’t her. But right after that, she had to laugh. God. Trust Barry to say something like that. “After we recover from the week...let’s go do that, huh? Go scope out some areas and beaches we could make a new home at.” The thought excited her, and it was probably obvious to Barry with the way she smiled at him.

The possibilties with what they could do with their new place were endless. Well, to the imagination, at least. The Shack definately needed an upgrade, and it would be nice for Lil B to have his own area too. Somewhere bigger for the three, no, four of them. Marble was part of the family as well, obviously.  Goodbye renovated fishing shack. Hello tropical bungalows. @disruptanddisturb​ for mentions

[blocksandbloops]

May I interest you in some fem!hermit!Tommy fluff for you in this trying time?

This is set in an alternative version of @redorich 's hermit!Tommy AU. Diverging from the Dream SMP's raid on Hermitcraft. All you need to know is that family trees are convoluted, Tommy's name is Clementine. She's trans, we love her, she has wings and has adopted Grian as her weird almost twin brother.

After the whole "Dreamon" and "invasion" mess the Dream SMP folk didn't expect to hear much from the hermits besides the ones who attended MCC. They thought that the two servers would just continue to exist, independent of one another. Just drifting through the void mere inches apart but never really touching.

Oh how wrong they were.

The hermits were friendly but they had absolutely underestimated just how friendly.

Apparently, the moment Clementine so much as breathed a word about how much she missed her biological family, Scar -ever the kind and helpful mayor that he was- decided to throw a beach party!

Since Clemmy's extended family was pretty large and they didn't want anyone to feel left out, it was an open invitation to everyone on the Dream SMP as long as they behaved.

That point was driven home when a few people, like Antfrost and his unhealed, dog bitten asscheek, mentioned how upsetting the Hermits was definitely not a good idea.

(Deep down they knew that the reason they were really doing this was because the hermits were worried about them. The Dream SMP was just a bunch of traumatized children according to them. They weren't wrong in that assumption but no one wanted to admit that.)

So, when the day of the beach party finally dawned, they all put on their least threatening outfits and packed up their supplies, (where Tubbo got the surf board nobody wanted to question) and entered the portal just like they had done a few months prior.

A few things were different though, the sun was bright and beaming in the sky, soft puffy white clouds rolled by, only promising gentle shade instead of the dreary air of yesteryear.

The shopping district had been rebuilt from it's smoky ruins and they finally all had time to appreciate the lovingly built shops and roads. It looked so beautiful and vibrant, you could practically feel the fact that summer was in full swing.

The smell of nectar and sea salt drifted through the air, sweetening even the sourest of moods. This is what peace was to the hermits. This was their everyday. They were so lucky and they didn't even realize it.

Some people were taking notes of all the different building styles with bright eyes, hoping to replicate some of it when they got home, others were suddenly hit with a feeling of bitter inadequacy of it compared to their homes. Is this what a world without war could look like?

But, no matter the gloomy musings of the few, they were all here to let go for a day! To celebrate the good times and to kick back for seemingly the first time in forever.

Their welcome party this time simply consisted of one person.

It was a strange sight, seeing the Hermits' admin Xisuma without a mask on, wearing a god awful hawaiian shirt that Keralis had thrown at him with glee the moment he mentioned that he didn't have something to wear, and again, were those, gods forbid crocks?

"'Ello everyone! Wow this is quite the turn up. Scar wished he could be here to greet you all personally, but he's still too busy helping the others preparing for the barbecue, so you're stuck with me for the time being.

Now, if you'll kindly follow me, we set everything up pretty close to here, so we'll be there in a minute."

The walk over to the beach was short, but just as scenic as the rest of the server.

Warm, golden sand, gently lapping waves and lush plant life. The sound of the hermits' laughter and soft music filled the air as the smell of the previously mentioned barbecue proved a welcome distraction from whatever the hell was happening on the far right side of the beach (the ZIT trio built a karaoke machine. It was Zedaph's idea. It was also a horrible idea but they didn't seem to realize that yet.)

As they began to debate a plan of attack, no wait. ... fun? enjoyment? eh whatever.

A tall man jogged up to the group. Some people recognized him as Mumbo Jumbo, that one british guy with the mustache. Others, however, as that semi-scary redstone wizard who managed to create extremely powerful potion launchers during the invasion.

He was dressed just as down to earth as the others, holding a tall glass of lemonade in his hand and wearing a (quite goofy) sunhat he borrowed from Ren.

He was explaining something to X in hushed tones (something or other about a minor fire at the barbecue table?) When he looked past the gathering of guests and out towards the path that they had come from, and screeched.

"GRIAN PLEASE I'M HOLDING LEMONADE DON'T!" X reached over and grabbed the glass from his hands just in time for a cackling, feathered ball of something to crash into Mumbo, knocking him into the water with an audible "oof".

There was wild thrashing as the two tried to orient themselves, Grian somehow climbing onto Mumbo's back.

"CLEMMY! COME HELP ME DROWN MUMBO!" Grian waved towards a cluster of trees to their left, underneath which a small gathering of hermits was enjoying a bit of a reprieve from the sun.

"NOT YOU TOO!" came the mustachioed man's scream of distress.

Clementine, the whole terrifying six feet and three inches of a woman that she was, took off running to the water at full tilt towards the struggling brits.

Mumbo, having already formed a strategy in his head, did a perfect T-pose and feel backwards into the water, bringing down a screaming Grian with him. Clementine did a graceful swan dive into the water (how she executed that shall be left for viewer interpretation) and happily joined the fray, even the distressed calls of Stress behind her because "Gods damn it Clemmy! I spent an hour on your hair! And now it's ruined!" couldn't persuade her to give up on her mission to cause as much friendly chaos as possible.

She climbed out of the water a few minutes later, her hair a mess and a bright smile on her face.

"Techie! Wilby! Tubbo! Thank you guys so much for coming! I'm really glad that you could make it." She hugged them each close, enjoying the comfort of having them all together again.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world." Techno relaxed his posture, trying not to fidget too much. He was getting better with crowds but it was still a lot.

"You may think he's joking but he literally dragged Quackity all the way to the portal because he was too busy doing his eyeliner and would've made us late." Wilbur snickered when she leaned in to hug him, earnings him one of her patented ear-splitting laughs.

"I got a recording of it!" Tubbo proudly announced, pulling out his video camera

while still holding an arm around her.

"ABSOLUTELY NOT! LET ME HAVE SOME DIGNITY MAN!" The aforementioned Mr. Fattest Ass in the cabinet screamed indignantly as soon as he got within hearing range.

"Quackity you never had any dignity. It's too late for that." Techno flicked the duck shapeshifter on the head, earning him even more annoyed rambling which he just chose to ignore.

"Well, I'm glad that that's settled, now, I have some people I'd like for you to meet."

She directed them towards the group sitting in the shade, which consisted of False, (a now soaking wet) Grian, Stess, Mumbo (who also looked like a disgruntled cat that was just given a bath), Iskall and Ren.

Meanwhile Doc and Cleo had a little cornered off area they'd nicknamed the "cool kids club" (it was because around this time the sun got strong enough to actually burn her and Doc just felt slightly iffy about the water, since he was, ya know, half robot.)

Clemmy threw herself down on a blanket in front of a grumbling Stress who set about actually making her hair look presentable.

Niki sat down next to them and began discussing the merits of different styles to put Clemmy's hair into.

Ranboo sheepishly sat down next to Cleo's lawn chair folding all of his gangly limbs under himself.

Wilbur happily plopped himself down next to Ren on a blanket and began to hum along to the other's guitar.

Techno lay dow his cape, deciding that a nap was the best course of action in that moment.

Fundy hesitated for a second before going down to the shore to relax and just put his feet in the water for now.

Philza, the awkward dad that he was, chose to sit down close enough to the girls that he'd be able to hear what they were talking about without intruding.

Tubbo placed his stuff down by Clemmy's feet and ran out to the shore with his surf board in hand.

Going through so many conflicts in such a short amount of time really tires a person out, especially ones as young as the ones from the SMP so getting this afternoon of rest truly helped ease some of the stress given to them by recent events.

(Beach episode pog?)

Of course, this little get together wasn't without it's faults. About two hours in Doc accidentally trampled False's sand castle, who in retaliation teamed up with Cleo to dump water on him while he was relaxing.

This little conflict evolved into a battle to see who could build the biggest and grandest sand castle between "Team Himbo" and "Team Women" (one of those was coined by Clemmy). Puffy and Stress set up a good system of transporting sand from point A to point B, allowing them to move faster. False got placed on detailing duty while Niki brought refreshments for the rest of the team. Alyssa was mostly helping out wherever she could, as Cleo worked her armour stand magic to make their castle feel even more alive.

Clemmy just shouted encouragements and bullied the opposing team.

(The member list of Team Himbo has been redacted to avoid any drama about who might qualify as a himbo in the given circumstances)

Somehow the guys managed to convince Techno to join them, which immediately stacked odds in their favor to which Eret and Iskall, being the non-binary legends they are, decided to side with Team Women, now renamed to "Team Prettier Than You".

Their building contest laated for another hour before X decided to try to stop them (it wasn't because of the time. It was because TFC and Grian started shouting things about structural integrity and adding stone parts to the walls and the contestants actually listened when he decided that it was getting out of hand.)

Then it was time to actually enjoy the barbecue. Techno surprised everyone with how delicious his baked potatoes ended up. Beef also got to flex his skills a little with, as you guessed it, beef.

Tubbo and Tango sadly had to eat further away then everyone because the moment they got within ten feet of the fire something mysteriously combusted.

After that, the ZIT trio busted out the karaoke machine and the night went from good to great.

The old Team Star was dared to sing a rendition of Hermit Gang and everyone younger than 25 felt physical distress during some parts.

The sleepy bois (+Tubbo) sang a cover of "Your new boyfriend" (Techno got surprisingly into it) and then Wilbur swiped Ren's guitar to sing some Taylor Swift songs (accompanied by Tubbo on a synth he seemingly pulled out of nowhere) in that one weird accent he can do which had most people wheezing on the floor from laughter after the first song.

Niki threw down a german cover of Say So by Doja Cat. Grian, Phil and Tommy were unconsciously doing the parrot dancing thing. It was great.

Quackity sang something in spanish and Karl and Sapnap made over exaggerated swooning noises.

Skeppy and Bad did a duet. It was as adorable as it sounds.

Some other people also came on stage, belting out songs in such horridly broken voices that I'll spare you the details. Let's just say, nails scratching chalkboards would sound better.

And that was most of the festivities over with.

The last thing on the agenda? A meteor shower. How did they set it up? Clemmy's weird star child thing. The aforementioned girl was huddled close together with her family as they watched the comets streak across the clear sky (all electronics and artificial lights were shut off for the night) and Melohi played from a jukebox in the corner.

Fundy was laying his head in Dream's lap, the other boy was softly threading his fingers through his almost fiance's orange hair while leaning heavily on George and trying not to let sleep claim him as it had the fox (no one knew how this happened, all they were aware of is that the three had disappeared sometime during the sand castle contest only to reemerge having finally talked things through and come to an agreement that they all seemed happy with).

Ranboo, Niki, Puffy and Eret were collapsed in a happy pile just vibing.

The sleepy bois, who were for once actually sleepy, all wore matching flower crowns braided together by Stress's experienced fingers (and Wilbur's rather clumsy ones). Phil and her had managed to come to an agreement of unofficial joint custody after he witnessed Techno embarrassedly lean down to let her place a crown of golden flowers upon his head and saw his internal beam of pride when she called him "handsome".

The boys never really had a mother he mused, maybe she could teach them kindness where he couldn't.

Another surprise addition to the family was the owner of the third pair of wings in the cuddle pile. Phil didn't expect to end up with any more children at this point in his life, but Grain and Clemmy were practically attached at the hip and it felt wrong to even think about separating them.

He only hoped that those two wouldn't cause too much chaos especially when teamed up with Tubbo.

In the end, everyone drifted off to sleep, one by one they closed their eyes on their most perfect day. Praying for whatever might be out there, that they'll have many more moments just like this.

Well,

almost everyone.

Callahan chuckled as he walked back up to his spot with Alyssa farther away from the others. shutting off his camera after cycling through the pictures he took of everyone looking goofy while sleeping (His favorite is the one where Clemmy was very visibly munching on Techno's hair). He may not use those as blackmail but he sure ass hell was going to tease them about it later. He fell asleep there on that hill, drifting off to comforting rest like the others.

After that? Life moved on.

It was chaotic sure, and not perfect.

But it was theirs. They grew up slowly, learning to be kind to one another, how to grow with one another.

Life wasn't always perfect but hey, they had each other. And in the end? That's all that mattered.
