Dungeons & Drabbles - 2022

Day 28 - Vanilla

--------------------

FCG/Marwa (Modern Human AU)

“I… think we may have gone wrong somewhere.”

Marwa cursed under her breath, squinting as she tried to find where they'd gone wrong. Everything else seemed about right, and they’d only added two tablespoons of vanilla essenc-

Oh. Fuck.

“This says teaspoons, doesn't it?”

Fresh Cut Grass reached up, taking the offered phone and adjusting his glasses as they skimmed through the recipe.

“Yep! T S P. Teaspoons! Did we not do that?”

“I read it as tablespoons, so…”

“Oh. Well that would explain it then!” Fresh Cut Grass laughed warmly, handing back her phone. They didn't seem bothered in the slightest. Which, yeah, she did suppose it was fine. The world wouldn't end because their cupcakes tasted like deepthroating a vanilla giant.

“We probably should have stuck to a packet mix. Neither of us are kitchen wizzes.”

“Well sure, but we had fun, didn't we? And they aren't entirely inedible! Maybe if we ice them with something less sweet…”

Sometimes Marwa wondered how she befriended someone so optimistic and sociable. Fuck, if she hadn't needed help in the shop she probably never would have let them be more than another customer in her mind. The thought had a slight frown tugging at her lips.

A life without having known Fresh Cut Grass like this… what a lonely life that would be. She’d already lived that life, traumatized and depressed, missing her dad and best friend and having days where she wished she could join them.

Not to say that every day had been bad. Marwa had liked her job, had dove face first into hobbies she still greatly enjoyed. Plus she had always been one to enjoy her own company, and had never really enjoyed crowds or group situations.

But it had been lonely.

So very lonely.

“Marwa, please don't be upset… we can bake another batch, it's okay! We all make mistakes!”

A gentle hand slipped into hers, squeezing ever so softly in reassurance. Marwa let her gaze fall to Fresh Cut Grass’s face and grew frustrated when she found her sight hazy with tears.

Only her favorite ball of sunshine could get her emotional like this.

“Don't care about the cupcakes. Just got thinking. About before I met you.”

“Oh… I understand.”

Fresh Cut Grass patted the seat next to him with their joined hands, which Marwa nodded to and silently dropped down to sit beside them. From there she sort of just… melted into his side, curling into the arm he wrapped around her.

This. This was what she'd truly been missing when she was alone. To hold and be held. How could something so simple be so powerful and missed so terribly when gone?

“You won't have to go through that again. Being alone, I mean. I know… being alone is painful. Scary. But you have me now! And Anni, Ashton and Milo too! And also Laudna and Imogen, Fearne, Dorian and Orym… And Dariax, Opal, Fy'ra and Chetney! That's a lotta people who have your back, Marwa! With all of us you’ll never be lonely again…”

Such a big and colorful group. Marwa couldn't say she regretted befriending them all, even if some days she wanted to physically fight more than a couple of them.

Still… It was nice to have people in her life that cared, who she could share passions and heart aches with.

And at the center of them all sat Fresh Cut Grass, the one who'd first wormed his way past all her walls and defenses, by simply just being kind and being there for her.

Even now, there they were, offering a shoulder to cry on.

“Still weird to think about. But…” Marwa paused, dipping her head up to press a chaste kiss to Fresh Cut Grass’ cheek. “It's nice. You're nice. I like having you around, Grass. You're… special. To me.”

“Wow…”

Marwa delighted in how his cheeks warmed, and found couldn't help but lean in to give their other cheek the same attention.

“Thanks. For being you. For being with me.”

“You don't have to thank me for that! You're a delight, Marwa!”

“You're full of crap, Grass.”

“Well, you're a delight to me.”

Marwa chuckled to herself as she dropped her head back down on Fresh Cut Grass’ shoulder, and even found herself smiling when she felt a sweet kiss be pressed against her unruly hair.

“Thank you too…” they whispered.

“For what?”

“For this. For… for just being in my life.”

“Could say the same thing.”

Like it needed to be said though. In the quiet warmth of her kitchen, curled into one another, words didn't really need to be said.

This moment between them, soft and tender, lingered on, as sweet as the vanilla that still lingered in the air.

Walks into The Trove in Jrusar

“Hey Marwa, catch”

“Ashton should take the shard” “Fearne should take the shard”

Imagine if Ashton “Abstaining-From-Being-Undecided” Greymoore gave it to someone completely random.

I can just see them seeing how it seems destined for either themselves or for fearne and going “you know what? Chetney gets it. Eat the glowing rock old man”

Some of these are requests from about a year ago lol, and some have been on my drawing wishlist for as long/longer :))

The Tagalog-like proper nouns in Critical Role Campaign 3 sound so soothing and homey to my Filipino ears:

Ginang Lumas

Marwa Endalia

Preio Madali

Kamala

Barinak

Manad

Sahayadon

Gorginei

Koron

Qoreo

Hablon River

Denalia

Sabanis

Lirios

Heck, even Bassuras!

And weirdly enough, Annaline is a popular Weatern name here

I don't know the exact inspiration. Must be the Indo-Malay culture. A bit of Chinese. A sprinkling of Western or Hispanic? I dunno.

I'm no expert here but i like what I hear.

[natp20]

your honor i'd die for her

[essek-thelyss]

This place is filled with treasures that I just need to organize. It’s not trash, you don’t have an eye.

+ Bonus

[shrugsinchinese]

Marwa! Protect her at all costs!!
