Do the other kids get weapons in First Frost to defend themselves and if it's not too spoiler-y what are they?
They do! After the Battle of the Bridge Blinky takes the four to meet with a weapons smith and collector in Trollmarket, hoping to find suitable weapons that they can use to properly protect themselves.
Claire already has Daylight and she’s barred from touching any other magic objects after the ‘grit shaka’ incident.
The kids are allowed to look around the shop, told to find what resonates best with them. Mary drags a wicked looking mace from a pile of other deadly weapons. Toby finds his hammer, already chock full of a wary sort of gravity magic, linked to the earth.
Darci is unsure of her choices, but the weapon smith offers her two dual swords, shorter than any long sword but wickedly efficient in a pair. She loves them so much she ends up naming them later.
Jim unfortunately doesn’t find anything in particular that resonates with him, which is fine Blinky promises there’s plenty of other options. He just wasn’t expecting Jim to take that quite literally when getting his hands on the Shadow Staff.

Story Of A Bridge -
I found some old photographs the other day that might be of some interest to my Michigan followers. My followers that are overseas can look up more information in a Google search for: Zilwaukee Bridge.
I have posted pictures from here before. This bridge is part of freeway I-75 that runs from Sault Ste. Marie Michigan (at the Canadian border) down to Miami Florida. The top picture shows how it looked in 1988 after the new bridge span was opened.
The old bridge used to be a drawbridge and when a Great Lakes freighter came downriver, the traffic on the two lane freeway would backup for miles. The old bridge had two lanes for northbound traffic and two lanes for southbound traffic.
This second photo is how the bridge looks in September 2024. Building the new bridge turned out to be a fiasco and part of it fell into the river. There was a new construction company hired eventually. Some of my older Michigan followers might have even gotten caught in one of those legendary traffic jams.
This is a picture I posted a couple weeks ago and you can see why the old drawbridge would have to stay open so long. These freighters are not exactly speed demons and there is a bend in the river right where the ship is now standing.
The new bridge has 4 lanes going both north and south.

Life Is Short So Make It Sweet
Chapter Fifteen: Getaway
Summary- 2.8k Curtis Everett x Plus!sized Reader. Christmas is here and having decided to cash in on Edgar's apology gift, you both head to a holiday getaway along the edge of the remote lake. The cabin is everything you had hoped for and you both settle right into the cozy place.
Warnings- Reader thinking about her abusive ex.
A/N- its a soft short sweet chapter. Thank you so much to everyone who has been reading, commenting and sharing. You all are why this story continues. Thank you to @what-is-your-plan-today for taking the time out of your busy holiday schedule to read this over. Dividers made by @firefly-graphics
A/N 2- Tumblr won't let me post this chapter, no matter what edits I make. So I will link the AO3 link below if you wish to read. I'm so sorry everyone.
Chapter Fourteen / Masterlist
That morning flew, and the two of you finally got out of bed and functioning enough to pack the car for the days at the cabin. Making a brief trip to pick up his truck and park it at the house, you two finally hit the road.
The drive to the cabin followed along Lake Superior, giving the two of you a beautiful snowy scenic drive that Christmas Eve, on the way there you took pictures of the lake, all wild with busted ice and small waves, boats still fishing quite a way out from the shoreline. You were sure to send the photos to your sister. Jade in return sent you sunny beach pictures from where she took Mary for the day, making you feel a bit envious of all the sun and sand. You were sure to show Curtis who commented that it looked like Jade, Frank and Mary were in a paradise, although you both agreed that Christmas needed some snow.
On the way there, you had Curtis stop at a small local grocery store to pick up a few day's worth of food for the two of you, having meals planned for at least three days worth, including a nice bottle of champagne for the two of you to share in the hot tub.
Pulling up to the cabin in the dying light around mid-afternoon, you retracted your statement about Florida looking like a paradise. Snow had built up on the sides of the quaint cabin, closing it in from the cold wind, big towering pines covered the area behind the cabin and in the distance, you could see the lake views you had heard about back when you booked the cabin on the phone. Set up on the cabin's wall were several pairs of snowshoes to be used, sleds and a snow shovel should the need arise. Stepping out of the car, you admired the scene before you. “Okay, this is a lot nicer than I expected.
Curtis followed you, leaning against the open car door to take in the whole scene. “Looks like something right out of a Hallmark movie.” He exclaimed as he shut the door and popped the trunk to grab the bags. “Wanna go in and check it out, I will have this stuff unloaded quickly.” He offered and you grabbed a special bag from the backseat before he could grab it, making your way up the steps. As you stepped onto the porch you saw small touches where the company had decorated the cabin, strands of lights wrapped around the porch, and a light-up frosty sitting near the door holding a welcome sign. A large beautiful wreath woven with holly berries and ribbon was hanging off the door. Trying the handle, it was unlocked and you flicked on the lights inside to see it was modestly decorated as well on the inside. It made you feel better about celebrating Christmas away from home. Tucking the bag you carried away in the front closet, you slipped off boots and jacket while you looked around.
Curtis came in with an armload of bags that he sat down, glancing around quickly. “We are going to have a cozy holiday Honey.”
The downstairs floor plan was all open, the kitchen area was modest but it led right into a rather large sitting area that was equipped with a stone fireplace, and floor to ceiling windows to the back deck where the hot tub was tucked into a corner under an awning to keep the snow from covering the seating area.
The view, well it was stunning in the winter, you could only imagine the view of the lake in the summertime. There was a set of stairs that led into a loft that must be the bedroom and there was a bathroom tucked off from the seating area.
It was simple overall, but beautiful and just what you had hoped for. You even spotted a small tree tucked near the fireplace, a Christmas tree for you and Curtis to use.
“It is stunning, I’m so glad we are spending Christmas here.” You paused at the kitchen counter to check out the gift basket that was left for them- filled with Hillshire sausage, cheeses, crackers, nuts, candy and fruit spreads. Tucked among the goodies was a happy holiday note that included some basic rules and how-to’s for stuff like the fireplace and hot tub. Curtis went back out to grab the last of it while you grabbed the bags for the loft and started upstairs.
The loft had A-frame ceilings and a railing at the end where it was open to looking down into the seating area and then again the views were just as stunning as promised from upstairs. You set the bags down near the dresser and went to sit on the edge of the bed, feeling it was nice and plush while still having the right amount of firmness. From below you heard Curtis come back into the cabin and then the soft padding of him coming up the stairs to look around the loft, giving another low whistle when he saw the view from the landing. The lake here was mostly frozen at this point, the sky turning a deep pink and purple in twilight hues while the ice and snow put off a silverish blue hue.
“How's the bed?” He asked as you twisted to your side, patting the spot next to you.
“Come see, I think it's comfy.” You remarked as he fell down next to you, with all the pillows, he could half sit up, still seeing the outside from where he was laying and then looking at you.“I’m really liking this Y/N.”
You scooted over closer to lay your head on his chest. “Me too, I could really just stay in bed for the next couple of days after this school trimester.”
“You know I will have no issue with that.” Curtis’s hand swept along your side to settle on your hip, tucking you in close against him. You two lay like that for a little while enjoying one another's company before you stirred to get up.
“I gotta go take care of those groceries and make something to eat. I'm starving.” You stretched to get the kinks out and Curtis got up as well. Following you downstairs, you started unpacking the groceries while he went to get a fire started in the fireplace.
Soon the small space was warming with the small crackling fire and you set your phone up to a Bluetooth speaker you had brought, playing Christmas music on low while you started dicing some cheeses to add to your snack board that you were putting together, making sure to add the different stuff from the gift basket that was left for them.
“Anything I can do to help?” Curtis came over with a brush of his hands on his pants to get rid of any soot from the fireplace and you gave it some thought.
“You can pull out that Christmas tree from the corner and get it lit up? It is Christmas Eve and Santa has to leave some gifts under it.” Curtis flashed a smirk, recalling the Santa hat from this morning and you leveled him a look. “You putting yourself under the tree?”
“I don’t know, have you been a good girl?” He remarked as he worked on doing as you asked, his comment made you laugh. You sorted through the rest of the basket of goodies left for you, dicing up a couple of apples to go with the soft caramel that was left as a dip as well as spreading mixed nuts across the board. There were some special rum-filled homemade chocolates that you eagerly added to your board. The last thing you added was a piece of honeycomb you brought from home, smiling at how nice it all looked. A nice mix of everything, you carried it out to the seating area that Curtis now had more intimately set up.
The couch was now facing the fireplace with the tree nearby adding a soft glow to the room. Currently, he was rearranging a few of the ornaments to make the tree glisten just right. You took this opportune moment to snap another picture of the whole scene laid out before you, ending it with a Merry Christmas, Love You, and Skype in the morning to your sister and parents.
Humming softly to the music playing, you set the board down on a nearby table and joined Curtis, looking at the small ornaments scattered among the tree. It was easy to tell that they were ones that could be found in any store, glass balls, snowmen, Santa's, and other Christmassy themed pieces, but you were absolutely smitten with the small tree.
“Do we count this as our first tree?” Curtis asked and you shrugged, circling around his waist.
“I would say so, we will make it officially our first tree on Christmas Day.” You stated while pulling up to place a soft affectionate kiss in a thank you to his mouth. Curtis's hand cupped your cheek, thumb sweeping against the curve of your jaw while smiling against your lips.
“Merry Christmas Eve Honey.” He pulled you away from the tree to go settle on the couch.
“So tell me, did you have any holiday traditions for tonight?” You tucked your feet up under you while Curtis got comfortable next to you.
“Well as a kid, Ella would come over and spend the night on Christmas Eve, Grandpa always made a big deal of it, we would have a massive tree in the living room where the tv now sits. Ella and I would be awake half the night waiting for Santa. Come morning Grandpa was awake before we were and would come busting into my bedroom getting us out of bed. Grammy would be downstairs with Ella’s mom, Lisa, waiting for us to come down. Looking back on it, they were probably up a good chunk of the night waiting on us to fall asleep.” Curtis chuckled at the memory. “Now it's more laid back.”
“Your grandparents sound like they were so much fun.” You always loved when he discussed them, even though they were now memories, you could tell how important they were to Curtis. “Did Wilford like to catch Lillian under the mistletoe?”
“Every chance he could. Gram would be in the kitchen half the time, she LOVED baking, and she was always sending batches of cookies and bread to people around the neighborhood. Grandpa hung the mistletoe up in that hallway that leads to the garage, she was always running back and forth past that entranceway so he would snag her.”
That made you laugh, easily seeing the older couple playing, in the same way, Curtis often did, so spur of the moment and out of nowhere.
“Christmas was special, they made it special for Ella and me. If I was to ever have kids, I would want to give the same to them and Sophia.” He said, both of you reaching to snack on the charcuterie board you put together.
“What about your family? Just from what I know of your mom, I can imagine what yours was.”
“Right now I expect their Christmas Eve party is in full swing. You ever see Christmas With The Kranks?”
“Umm… Yes? That Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis flick on Netflix?”
You nodded affirming it. “Only both of them are into it, you know? So matching sweaters, all the neighbors and their families were invited. Way too much food and booze. Big Christmas tree that they pile a bunch of gifts under for the kids at the party to unwrap, some games going. They spend a small fortune on it, but they really love it. Typically, the party would wind down around midnight, then they would set up for Christmas morning. But this year, I don’t really know. It’s just the two of them.” You shrugged. “I will be skyping with them in the morning, they wanted to talk at least and I figured I would show them the cabin.”
“I will be sure to be decent.” Curtis winked at you and you chuckled, biting into a cracker you had some cheese and honey smeared onto.
“You don’t have to be decent on my account.” You giggled while leaning into Curtis’s side, his arm slinging over your shoulder as you both gazed at your first Christmas tree.
You two told more childhood stories, the late hour making you both drift closer together. Curtis’s hand rubbed lightly up and down your side to settle against your waist. It was such a content feeling being with him, Curtis had no expectations of you, you didn’t have to spend half the night wrapping useless gifts for tomorrow, have to dress a certain way, or be expected to interact with people you didn’t even know. It was just the two of you.
You tried to keep it from your mind, the thought of your last Christmas with Jake. How he needed you ‘presentable for the company’s party.’ Picking out your clothes and getting mad at you when everything he chose from your closet was just a bit too snug on you. The dress you had spent a small fortune on for this particular party simply wasn’t good enough. “You can’t wear that Y/N, this is supposed to be a formal occasion.” The velvet green holiday dress sat unused in your closet. You were so tired at that point, just letting him have his way all the time and you had stopped trying to defend yourself. You went to the party that night in a backless number that was so tight, you didn’t dare wander from the wall, not wanting anyone to see the unflattering shape of your body squeezed into the too small dress, especially with the open back that showed the rolls.
You had never felt so low in your life as you did that Christmas Eve put on display by Jake.
“Hey, where did you go Honey?” a smooth baritone that made you blink at the Christmas tree in surprise, not even realizing you had drifted that far into the memory. Curtis had a concerned look, the small indent on his forehead where his brows came together, his eyes searching yours for an unspoken answer. Jake was clearly the past and you much more firmly pushed him out. He wasn’t going to ruin another holiday, not for you ever again. “Thinking, which is proving to be dangerous.” You lightened up, a small smile making him ease his features.
“Clearly.” Curtis didn’t push for an answer any further. His hand dropped from your shoulder to your waist, fingers digging in slightly to hold onto you a little more. “We're gonna have to fix that though.” The warmth of his hand brushed against your face to tilt you towards him.
“I know how.” Your fingers drift up to brush against his bristled chin and tilt upwards to reach him, pressing your lips to his.
It was so gentle at first, a fluttering of your breaths had Curtis going for another, not wanting to let you get too far away from him. Your lips parted and a slip of his tongue had you forgetting all about what was taking up your mind earlier. All it was about was how Curtis pressed you into him, your body sinking against his warm hard one, making you crave more. Your other hand shot up to hold onto his face, the burn of his beard scratching at your palms while he tugged you across him, hands gripping from your waist to your ass, kneading his hands into your cheeks to arch you up, leaning into his chest. It was only when the fevered kiss broke, both of you panting did you loosen some of your hold, cupping your hands along his jawline.
“I want to give you your gift now Curtis, but I got to go get it ready. Wait for me down here?”
“You want to exchange now?” He let himself relax back on the couch while you were perched in his lap. Pushing yourself up to a sit, your hands found them running against the hard planes of his pecs, biting on your lip a bit nervously.
“No, this is… it is a special gift. Meant for tonight.”
You wondered if he could sense how nervous it made you, as well as excited. You had really wanted to give him this and this trip, well it seemed like the right time for it. If he did, he didn’t let on. An encouraging nod and smile came from him, one last playful squeeze to your ass.
“Of course Honey, take all the time you need. I will get the fire banked in the fireplace and lock up.” As a thank you, you pressed one last kiss to his lips and untwisted yourself from Curtis to head up the stairs to the loft, leaving him behind on the couch to wonder what you were up to.
