fic/au: A Botanist's Guide (sfw) by @r0b0s-robos | ref sheet

yap? yap.

such a cute & fluffy fic, with charming dialogue to boot! i love me some hurt/comfort... ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡)🍵

i cannot help but pair music with everything, sooo, might i recommend an oldie but a goodie, Hunnybee?

the visualizer and tone of the song make me think of moving on, looking hopefully towards the future & embracing the unknown. i feel like it fits the themes in this story rather well! plus, c'mon, the pun...

looking forward to future chapters!! i always love stories where folks share their knowledge, bc i love to learn!! and to ponder other life experiences!! mweheheh.

sprinkles treats for the curious who click 'keep reading'

it was an enjoyable challenge to draw them in casual attire! and, as friendly folks :3 (looks at my notes: Moon with freckles)

swooning at moon cafe

it feels like a furnace outside so lunch at moon cafe might seem counterintuitive yet i have been waiting, no, aching for a chance to annihilate my guts ever since i recovered from a stomach bug. i call up hasanfulhu, the perpetually broke lawyer, and we stroll down majeedee magu towards our destination. hasanfulhu saunters, perhaps even ambles, the point is the man moves with an easy gait like he's seen it all before. and here at moon cafe, a familiar stink envelops us. i rush towards the buffet and pile on the rice, lonu mirus, onion, rihaakuru dhiya - i have a little trick where i skim the milky layer off the rihaakuru dhiya, if you try it at home and like it, please credit me. i sit and start eating frantically as saththaaru might say, but you can't begrudge a starving man for laying waste to his lunch at speed. hasanfulhu seems to be saying something however. 'hmm?' 'i said your nose is dripping,' he replies. goddamn. plus, there're no serviettes on the table. i understand it's not sala thai but can't a guy expect some basic level of service? so a waiter finally brings them and i blow my nose to the delight of hasanfulhu who enjoys bodily sounds, the weird little man. 'anyway,' i begin. 'i've not drunk any coffee this week.' 'cool,' he says. 'yeah, i've been doing this breathing routine after i wake up.' i show him how, inhaling and exhaling in two second bursts. 'i jerk off after i wake up,' he says. 'and then i go back to sleep.' such scintillating wit. i finish off my rice and man, it's really cleaned out my sinuses. but all the flavours you expect are here - the silky, sweet and savoury taste of rihaakuru dhiya, the zing of the onion, the zap of the lonu mirus, oh, so many zaps. yep, it's something i return to again and again, with no boredom, just with the expectation that it remains as good as it was. the little piece of cardboard they hand me reads 120MVR, a good deal, and i pay the plump, moustached seytu who completes the transaction while reciting the quran without pause. so, off we go to movenpick to round off our meal with ice creams.

i order a chocolate and caramel scoop in a cone, and hasanfulhu gets the boring but delicious swiss chocolate. we eat, enjoying the cool, wafer-tinged silence, a welcome relief from the busy, barely sanitary environs of moon cafe. 'fuck,' says my friend, startling me. he's spilt some ice cream onto his crotch. i laugh. 'who'd believe you got that from ice cream,' i say. 'if i could explain...' 'nobody wants explanations these days man.' and now we walk towards his home in the muggy heat of this may afternoon, hasanfulhu no longer nonchalant, the suspicious stain on his crotch robbing him of his usual grace and i enjoying his discomfort like an invested bystander. ah, yes.

astro observations (i)

・•・•・☆⋆ ˚｡⋆・✭⋆ ˚｡⋆✭・⋆ ˚｡⋆☆ ・•・•・

sagittarius risings with chart ruler (Jupiter) in the 7th house – people with this natal chart placement will navigate and grow through close, personal karmic interactions. it is important that they let their views be challenged and unpacked, without excessive deference to other people. inner development/reflection will arise from close relationships and personal exchanges. people are innately generous with their energy. this is a lifetime of understanding your uniqueness and individuality. reflecting on how you choose to self-present to close partners, learning boundaries and addressing people pleasing tendencies is integral to maturation and growth, and this all comes from self-love and finding fulfilment outside of relationships.

venus in the 6th 🤝 neptune conjunct ascendent in an earth/water sign – romanticizing daily activities and finding small moments of joy

watch how libra sun men tell stories according to a close script, especially if they have an earth sign moon/mercury. often they will repeat stories or experiences carefully using similar, language, structure, pacing etc. based on the group of people they are talking to and the responses they expect their stories will elicit

cancer rising women are highly reflective but sometimes struggle to determine their own role/causality in relationships as they are led by intuition/emotion and responsiveness so identifying their distinctive properties and identity in close partnerships can be a challenge

chiron in the first house or conjunct the midheaven – people with either of these placements tend to struggle with self-belief in relation to building trajectory/long term planning in their life. finding a vocation that imparts positive impact to the lives of other people is essential to the mission of these people, but gathering the inner strength and faith to pursue a meaningful career or lifestyle objective can take time and may involve a process of discovery.

third house stellium 🤝neptune in gemini 🤝 mercury in the ninth – getting very easily distracted

sun conjunct mars – when people with this placement are motivated, they are a driving force with clear, direct velocity, especially with a commitment to achieving externally impressive goals

moon in an earth sign in the 2nd or 8th house – people with these placements can fluctuate between self-indulgence or extreme luxury, and restraint around finances to the point of hesitating before every purchase perceived to be unnecessary

virgo moons can struggle with unhealthy attachment to their routines, habits and even addictions, which can be difficult to break without external pressure and guidance

aries mercury 🤝 mars in the 3rd house – struggle with having attention directed to someone else in a larger group and may compete for attention, take a loud and bold stance to cast themselves as the entertainer within the group

chart ruler in the first house (especially aries rising with mars in the first house and scorpio rising with pluto in the first house) – people with this placement carry a profound desire to prove themselves/define their purpose in the world

gemini moons – people struggle to form deep and consistent emotional connections with gemini moons as they are fleeting with their attachments at an intimate level and their vulnerabilities are difficult to uncover as gemini moons prefer to be light rather than deeply below the surface. many gemini moon learn to self-regulate their emotions at a young age and can become immersed in distractive/dissociative tendencies

capricorn moon 🤝 mercury square moon in a fire sign – emotional blockages that lead to outbursts

if you miss moon cafe on a friday, here’s what you do

it's 4pm on a friday and man, i am absolutely mad with hunger. i woke up a couple of hours back, like any good dhivehi man, and lay in bed trying to figure out what i wanted to eat and where. because you see, my mother now lives all the way in phase two and i can't just pop in on a friday afternoon to get free grub. anyhow, it was already 3pm when i was done eliminating cuisines and individual dishes from my list. it was now clear that i wanted dhivehi keun. so i did as someone might – i settled for a maldivian rice bowl from rodchenko. it's the perfect sub for those who've missed the lunch buffet at moon cafe and still crave something dhivehi. to my dismay, i found out rodchenko did not open for an hour. so, i watched some russian propaganda clips on tiktok. putin. such an eloquent man. so knowledgeable, especially on his great adversary. i doubt biden knows or cares as much about russia. and now, at 4pm i call rodchenko and place my order. it will take forty minutes, they tell me. fine, i say. maybe i can watch putin speak for another half hour. the more i listen to putin, the more i am drawn to him. his charisma is apparent even on the phone's small screen. i listen to him criticise the west with great composure. of course, i don't agree with him on most points but he sounds incredibly persuasive. he sounds like someone you could get behind. finally, the time has come to head out to rodchenko so off i go. it is drizzling and so goddamned humid it almost seems like the air is giving me a big wet hug. rodchenko is quiet. dead quiet. i race upstairs and the place is empty but for me and a server who hurries to the kitchen. i take a seat in the booth, my back against a plump cushion. the dish is soon in front of me. it's an old favourite of mine, the maldivian bowl.

let me describe it briefly. there's rice half drowned in masfen, topped off with caramelised onions and sides of thelli faiy, sweet potato, and crowned with a dollop of rihaakuru. it's savoury, slightly sour, the coconut milk in the masfen adding some welcome sweetness while the chili turns on the heat. by all means, a decent substitute for moon cafe. i watch the rain patter on the large windows, thinking now of the prospects of nuclear war. the pro putin tiktok channel asserts the scientists involved the manhattan project revealed atomic secrets to the soviet union. why? putin says it's because these smart men understood that a single nuclear nation was far too dangerous and another opposing nuclear power was needed to restore balance. i finish my lunch and pay 115MVR at the counter. it costs 20MVR more now but still not too steep for a good dhivehi meal at this cafe with a russian's name. balance – i check mine on the phone. all is well.

Dear Crabsie,

I have brought thou a gift to defend thyself against any fishy thoughts, especially those which bringeth with them sadness and disdain, have these items to fortify your mind :

Okay have a nice day 🫂✨💕💥‼️

Dearest Starrie,

I was so thrilled upon receiving your notice of such a thoughtful gift that my joy rivalled that of my passing exam mark! However, I was simply aghast to discover that your gift had fell victim to the capricious nature of my postal service! I was looking forward to disrupting the tender tranquility of my housemates with my sweet kicks, but alas, the universe deemed this gift too powerful—too dangerous on the wrong feet. I am unworthy of such a gift. I only pray that whoever has received such a paragon of personal footwear will give them the honour and care that they deserve.

Your Humble Jestie,

Crabs

meanwhile...

but where did the other shoe go?
