Jessica Introduces Jaune to Earth (And Earth Things)

Tacos

Jaune: It’s nice to know food trucks are also a thing on Earth. What are they called again?

Jessica: Carne asada tacos.

Jaune: What does that mean?

Jessica: It basically just means “roasted meat”

Jaune: Alright… How do I eat these?

Jessica: Just fold them, and then you eat them like a hot dog.

Jaune: What’s a hot dog?

Jessica: Oh! Uh, it’s like a- a sausage that’s made from different animals, and then you cook it and put it in a-

Jaune: 🤭 Pfft. Hahaha! I’m sorry, I can’t-

Jessica: … Just eat your tacos. *Jessica tries to hold in her laughter, but can’t* 😄 Hahahahaha!

Jaune: *takes a bite of the taco* Hmm. 

Jessica: So…?

Jaune: 🧐 A little… oily?

Jessica: Here. Try it with all this. *Jessica adds onions, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime*  

Jaune: *Eats taco again* Ooh.

Jessica: Good right? Here, try these ones. 

*Jessica hands Jaune a different plate of tacos. Jaune eats one.*

Jaune: Mm. It’s chewy-er. What’s in these ones? 

Jessica: These are Tacos de lengua.

Jaune: And what does that mean?

Jessica: *Excited for Jaune’s reaction* 😈 These are made with cow tongue. 

Jaune: 😐… Eh. I’ve eaten weirder.

Prologue

Next: Horchata

[saltofmercury]

A König x reader where the reader gives off scary dog privilege.

Like at a McDonald’s, König will stand behind them, even if he’s like a MOUNTAIN compared to the reader and the reader will be like “HE asked for no pickles >:(“

Idk think it would be cute if the reader would help König out in social situations where he would be uncomfortable.

If König doesn’t feel like talking the reader redirects the conversation to themselves so König can just listen.

Pairing: König x reader

Summary: König feels better after meeting you.

"We"

He didn’t date. Dating was exhausting, humiliating, and daunting for König. A series of awkward silences followed by stupid questions, that seemed to be in constant loop.

“What do you do?”

“Where are you from?

“Why are you so quiet?

He was always too quiet, too shy, for women. Too soft, too detached with men. It’s like he couldn’t be perfect for either.

It was worse when he thought they were having a good time and König, already filled with nerves and anxiety, had ordered his meal wrong.

“Why didn’t you ask to have it without mushrooms?”

“Why don’t you ask them if that's not what you ordered?”

As if it were easy. They looked at him with stupidity like he couldn’t just do it.

Second + third dates were then followed by 

“I’m not asking them to switch it, that's your meal.”

“You’re a big boy, use your voice.”

Small jabs towards him because of his height and build, that he wished he could just push himself to do it but he didn’t want to add an extra burden to the waiter or crew in the back.

“It’s fine, I'll eat it.”

Later coming to realize at the end of the date that he wasn’t for “them.”

“It’s not me, it’s you, I just don’t see it working out.”

Until he met you.

You weren’t looking for anything, as a matter of fact you just wanted to decompress from the day, have a small get together with new and old friends, but lots of things changed that day. 

As you went around introducing yourselves, König said hi, but didn’t really put much input into the group. He seemed to be making himself smaller, fading away behind the group of people. He seemed uncomfortable.

You approached him— A small shiver from his side, mentally preparing himself knowing the lines of—

“WHY aren’t you talking?”

“How tall are you?”

“Why aren’t you drinking?”

“Why are you so quiet?”

However it wasn’t like that at all. You did most of the talking. Just asked for small input from him. He was so taken back by how comfortable you made him. You made talking to new people easy and by the end of the night it was you asking him on a second date. 

He nodded, dumbfounded. “A second date?”

A small shiver again, maybe this time it was different?

*

The second date, at some small diner nearby, you take the lead on talking again. You think it was perhaps due to your nerves, you had become a chatterbox.

“So why the military?”

“Uh— personal choice.”

Small silence as you chewed on the appetizer in front of you. You wide eyed, trying to not say 

“Well that explains the haircut.” so instead you said,

“Must be lots of traveling huh?” You continued, listing places you wanted to visit and asking if he had ever been there.

Relief pooled inside him. What was your motive behind this?

When it was time to place the order, König’s nerves had bundled inside of him again that he forgot to mention “no black olives.”

His dish was placed in front of him.

He looked concerned, like he was in for a long night of picking them off his meal, then bombarding him with questions of “why didn’t you just ask?”

You saw the concern on his face.

“Is everything alright?”

“Yeah.”

“Why aren’t you digging in?”

“Ah… I said no olives but it’s no big deal.”

It was a big deal and you called the waitress over.

“I’m sorry we said no olives”

“Oh! I’m sorry!” The waitress flushed and ran away with the plate.

“Here” you said, so calm, “you can have some of mine while we wait.”

How effortless you did it. How were you so good at this?

“I hate when I do that. I can’t have cilantro because it tastes like soap.” You laughed and continued to pick at french fries in front of him.

God you were adorable.

He was sure he wasn’t going to see you again, thinking that maybe you thought he couldn’t speak up for himself, or the conversation ran too dry.

You however kept pushing yourself in, being his voice when he couldn’t speak.

“We said—

‘No olives’ 

‘No pickles’

‘This isn’t what we ordered’

Relief washing over him that you took it upon yourself when he had made the mistake ordering.

How you used “we” as opposed to “he” and he really liked that you didn’t single him out. He could melt. Was there finally someone who could lessen the burden of his anxiety?

Dinner dates went from bi-weekly to weekly. Then it was just easy. It was a no-brainer being with you. 

You never once thought he was too shy, or too quiet, too soft, or too detached. You didn’t question things between you two, you just took the lead in conversations with people, often checking in with König for a small part in it. You knew the right amount to get out of him.

You took the burden of first time conversations. You had started ordering for the two of you, knowing what he liked and didn’t like. König felt lighter, felt better that someone was here for him and opposed to him.

Music of the Heart [J.YH] - eighty-three | the start of an apology

“Your table is right here,” the hostess said and led you and Yunho to a table by the window.

“Oh!” Yunho said as he stopped you from pulling out your own chair and helped you to sit before sitting on his own.

“Here are your menus, and the wine list. Is there anything you’d like to drink?”

You took the wine list out of Yunho’s hands and scanned it. “Do you like red?”

“Um… I think so.”

You raised an eyebrow at him.

He shrugged.

“Can we get a bottle of the cabernet?” You asked the hostess as you handed it to her.

She nodded. “I’ll have a waiter bring it right over.”

You smiled as she left. You opened the menu.

“I suppose you don’t know much about wine?” You asked Yunho.

“Oh… not really.”

You nodded.

“Do you?”

You shrugged. “I have no interest in it personally, but it was a little hard to exist around my parents without hearing them talk about it. You know, because of the status of it all.” You rolled your eyes. “I could moonlight as a sommelier if I wanted to.”

“A what?”

“Someone who tastes wine.”

His silence caused you to look up, to find him staring at you blankly. “What?”

He lowered his voice. “Doesn’t everyone taste wine?”

You stared at him for a moment before laughing.

“What?-- Can some people not taste it? Is it like cilantro, where some people think it tastes like soap?”

“Yunho, what?” You quieted your laughter. “No… it’s someone who tastes wine professionally. They work in fancy restaurants like this one to make sure that wines are paired with the right foods.”

“Paired?”

You nodded. “The flavors of some wines can overpower foods with more delicate flavors, so they design menus accordingly. Speaking of which, you should order beef since I ordered a red wine.”

Yunho nodded quickly and flipped to that section of the menu.

You exhaled a laugh.

He looked up at you again. “What?”

You shook your head. “You always were a bit of a pushover.”

“How am I a pushover?”

“You just did what I said without even asking anything?”

“And? You know more than me about this stuff, why wouldn’t I listen to you?”

You blinked. “Uh, I guess you’re right.”

He nodded once and went back to the menu.

The waitress came back with the wine and you ordered your food. You got an Osso Bucco, while he ordered a porterhouse steak.

While you waited for your food, you sipped your wine to avoid the awkward silence.

“So, um…” He started.

You had a feeling what this might be about and put your glass down.

“I’m really sorry for not going to the party when I told you I would.”

You nodded.

“Mingi and Dei told me you stayed to wait for me, and San told me that y/n asked him to drive you home… I’m sorry.”

You nodded again.

“I’m an idiot.”

“You are.”

He jolted for a second.

“Did you think I was going to tell you you weren’t?” You shifted in your seat. “I was mad you didn’t show up, okay?”

“San said you were pretty drunk.”

“Well the person I was waiting for stood me up, so it wasn’t like I had anything else to do.” You took a sip of your wine.

“I’m so sorry.”

You looked at him over the rim of your glass for a moment as he sat there, face fallen, staring into his lap.

“Hm.”

He looked up at you.

“Well, you said you’d treat me to dinner, so that’s the start of an apology.”

He continued to look at you, his face the expression of a kicked dog.

“And this is the dress I wore to the party, so you get to see that too.”

His eyes brightened. Hopeful.

“But if you stand me up one more time, I’m never speaking to you again, Jeong Yunho.”

Startled, he nodded quickly. “It’ll never happen again! I promise.”

You smirked at his display of effusion. “I’ll hold you to that.”

He nodded to himself.

He, at least, seemed like he was certain that he wasn’t going to let you down again. You found yourself at least leaning on the fence, though not getting off it and choosing a side just yet.

“You look very pretty.” He said.

“Oh. Thanks.”

He smiled.

“So how was the shoot?”

“Huh?”

“The shoot you had to blow me off for? How was it?”

“Oh, uh… busy. Sort of boring.”

You nodded.

“I really wish I had gone to the party instead.”

He sounded sincere.

“Well, I’m sure you can make the next one.”

“I’m definitely going to.”

You chuckled.

“Also… also: I’ll buy dessert. To further apologize.”

“You mean you weren’t going to?”

“Ah! I mean--”

“I’m kidding. If you buy dessert, I’ll accept your apology. But I’d better see you at the next party. I’m not going to be there all by myself again. If you stand me up again I’ll… go to the dance studio and punch you or something.”

He moved to do something, paused, and dug his hand into his pocket and fished out his keys and slammed them onto the table.

“What--”

It was your childhood Best Friends Forever lanyard. And it had something else on it.

“Is that… a bass pick?”

“It’s… the one you left behind when your mom took everything that day. I found it on the floor after you left. I put a hole through it and put on the lanyard.”

“...Was that before or after I told you I never wanted to see you again?”

He blushed hard, his ears going so pink they were almost red.

You waited.

“...After. I hoped that maybe we could be friends again, and maybe we could still leave town together… but you made it clear we couldn’t. That we wouldn’t…”

You watched him. You couldn't tell if he was just thinking or about to cry.

He inhaled deeply and looked up at you with a smile. “I thought I would never even see you again, nevermind be at a table with you, about to eat together.”

You nodded. You didn’t know what to say to that.

“So, by the most holy power in our childhood Best Friends Forever lanyards,” he put one hand on the lanyard and held the other up like he was a witness in a trial. “I solemnly swear that I will go to the next party.”

You chuckled at him. One foot was still touching the fencepost.

“I’m serious! I swear that… that… neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow--”

“Isn’t that the US Postal motto or something?”

“Ah-- is it?”

“I think it might be.”

“Oh… well, it still stands. Nothing will get in the way of attending the next party with you.”

“Oh, now we’re going together?” You laughed.

“Oh.” His neck went pink. “I mean-- if you want to.”

You watched him for a moment, one hand on the lanyard, the other up, ears and neck in all their embarrassed, pink glory. 

You felt the fence might be a bad place to be. The two of you were older now, and he was obviously repentant, he might have screwed up before, but he was trying to make things right.

“The only real apology is changed behavior. I saw that in a youtube video by a therapist.”

He considered this for a moment and nodded furiously. “My behavior will definitely change.”

“No, you can’t just say it, you have to--”

“I’ll show you. This dinner is only the beginning.”

You sighed with a laugh. “Okay. I’ll look forward to it.”

“You should look forward to it.”

“I already said that.”

He appeared confused for a moment before recovering. “Yeah. I agree.”

You laughed and shook your head.

Your food came out, and the waiters sat it in front of you, wished you good eating, and left.

“Put your keys away and eat your food you goof.”

He puts his keys back in his pocket bashfully.

As you cut into your food, you had to ask. 

“Have you really been carrying that this whole time?”

“My-- keys?”

“The lanyard.”

“Oh. Um…yeah. I’d always hoped that maybe we could meet again and I could tell you I was sorry. I guess…”

You put the piece of food in your mouth and chewed as you watched him puzzle out his next sentence.

“...I guess carrying it was… my way of hoping I’d see you. Like people who carry a pendant with a saint on it or something.”

You raised an eyebrow at him.

He looked up at you with a face that flagrantly displayed that he was hoping for your approval. He was always so earnest. 

“Just eat your food you silly boy.”

He looked down, deflated.

“And thank you.”

He looked up at you.

“For making it up to me. Thanks.”

He smiled.

I love the idea of stewjon being like space Scotland. but I also visualize it as a foggy planet surrounded by stormy skies and underground cities almost like how mandolore looked when it was abandoned. Also I picture it being in the unknown regions and being in close alliance to the chiss. I also picture stewjoni being far from human but only having humanoid looks.

oh i LOVE this!!! (cutting this off because i got ahead of myself)

I have read so many lovely iterations of stewjon in so many lovely fics and I love every single one. stewjon being in close alliance to the chiss would be so cool... the idea of stewjoni people being so rare and almost legendary like the chiss makes obi that much cooler and leaves so much room open for different interpretations.

and I am SO here for stewjoni having non-human qualities. make them really weird. give them lifespans twice as long as normal humans. they dont ever have menopause and will keep making babies when they're 105. they all have the cilantro soap gene. their skin glows golden during leap years and they are DEATHLY allergic to jogan fruits.

on another (darker) note, give me some history about how stewjoni were enslaved by planets with population problems for their long lives and breeding capabilities.

years of enslavement made them evolve in crazy ways to adjust to each planet they were held on and now they're like some kind of legendary deity.

each remaining stewjoni person (they're few and far between now) has some super cool power that can be traced back to whatever planet(s) their ancestors were held on.

give me a storyline of a stewjoni survivor discovering their past through a long chain of information and intel, unearthing old secrets and making new discoveries. avenging their family. singlehandedly wiping out any remaining slavers.

ok cool now make it obi and cal for their family. and quinlan and merrin are there to be their scary guard dog spouses (not that cal and obi need it) and bd1 is there (he thinks he's also a scary guard dog).

greez is there through a lot of grumbling. he's not going to let this band of idiots (merrin excluded) take the mantis on a galaxy-wide marvel movie-esque adventure without supervision (he also loves cal and would do anything for the kid, but he'll only tell you that after seven glasses of spotchka and sobs).

they get to discover things about kiffu and dathomir, too. family field trip to rediscover your heritage & confront your past alongside your present and maybe your future <3

get to know the mun! repost, don’t reblog.

——— BASICS.

NICK NAME(S): nana, nams, namnams, nami, nimnuts, i have been amassing an army. i don't care what people choose and actively encourage nicknames!!

PRONOUNS: he/they/it, please alternate!

ZODIAC SIGN: sagittarius! fun fact my bday is the same as sako's :>

TAKEN OR SINGLE: shingle

ANYTHING ELSE?: i volunteer at a local apothecary and just grind up herbs every week...?

——— THREE SERIOUS FACTS.

i realized i had bpd because my roommate who got diagnosed started talking about her symptoms and it was like something clicked. i had an "oh, shit" moment and it's actually been really helpful in processing my emotions ever since!

i have early onset arthritis. ripe old age of twenty. and carpal tunnel probably

unsure what else i can put here... this is sort of basic but i'm a junior in uni right now and i really want to do a semester abroad and go to grad school. not in that order and unsure how financially that will play out but we'll see.

——— THREE RANDOM FACTS.

i have a dog named milk who is evil but i love her anyways; i also technically have a cat named beef who is the cutest cat in the world. i say "technically" because i don't live with my friend who owns him but i basically do. (beef is my godson)

i have the cilantro soap gene...?

i binged wind breaker in like a three days. i don't think a piece of media has affected me this much since haikyuu and that's saying something because haikyuu made me throw up

——— EXPERIENCE.

i've been rping for over a decade now i think...? i started really young (maybe not even 12 oops) on places like wattpad, skype, kik, google+, animal jam, etc. i don't really remember why i switched to tumblr rp but it was one of the best decisions of my life—— i've met so many of my close friends here!

that isn't to say i didn't have bad experiences though. oopsies

——— MUSE PREFERENCE.

LMFAOAOEWRIJAMSDFLDSFM I WRITE ANYONE AND EVERYONE IF YOU COULDN'T TELL. i rarely make single muse blogs—— the only time i really do so are for ocs—— and even if i make a single muse blog for a canon character, i guarantee you i write others from the same media somewhere. i am physically incapable of only writing one character.

i do think i generally go for muses who have bad home lives, who have several mental illnesses (either confirmed, coded, or projected), and most of the time kind of bad people. examples: endo yamato, sylvain jose gautier, childe tartaglia, among others. i look like a walking red flag and i'm so sorry about it.

——— FLUFF / ANGST / SMUT.

FLUFF: i love fluff so so much! sometimes it's about the comfort and the happiness of it all... i'm always down for some feel good threads! however——

ANGST: —— i love to put my muses in situations. it is my favorite past time. call me a torturer the way i treat my muses because even though i love them they're always going through it cuz of me. i do love angst for angst's sake, but you will rarely see that from me because in the end i do need something to balance it out. it's always hurt and comfort with me!

SMUT: not on this blog, no, but i do write smut! i get embarrassed very easily though so it takes me a while to get to them. not my preference but if it happens, it happens.

——— PLOT / MEMES: i love love LOVE plotting!! i get so excited talking about how my muses would interact with others, it's why i may jump to respond to some things over others.

Okay speaking of allergies, what are everyone's allergies?

Certain soaps bother my skin, but I'm fine otherwise

I know Mark and Jon have dog allergies, and Jon is also allergic to watermelon

Oh and Todd's allergic to the devil's lettuce (cilantro)

[ratsoh-writes]

Briar eyes the board carefully before putting her weight on it and deciding it was safe to cross. They made it! Once fully on board she stood up and.... Quickly stumbled to catch themselves leaning to the right. She's good, she's fine. Leaning a bit forward, wobbly, no no, fine again. Never on a boat before for sure.

"....I some bugolgi beef banh mi sandwiches-" they looked to have extra carrots, cilantro, cucumber, and picked radishes. "-some sweet peppers and grape tomatoes in Italian dressing-" looked tasty "-and some whole apricot pastries because ... The recipe said it looks like a boat." It did not look like a boat. It looked more like a sunny side up egg.

It looked like a lot of food but she wasn't sure exactly how much he would eat! Seaswap uses a lot of energy, right (than horrorfell for sure)? More calories? They once saw a farm tale monster almost clean out a restaurant before!

--

Oooo, right out of uniform. Take it off slower, lol. Aspen tugs at his now exposed neckline, pulling him down for a not-too-quick smooch.

"You ready to lose?" Oh mean grin. She came for a good time.

Finn widens his eyes at all the food

Finn: WHOA! STARS YOU WENT ALL OUT! MWEHEHE ARE WE BRINGING MORE PEOPLE?

Briar hears a soft whine behind her. Turning, she sees the fluffiest golden retriever dog! The dog wags its tail and nudges her hand clearly begging for treats

Finn: OH! THATS MERMAID, MY BROTHER IS AT WORK RIGHT NOW SO SHES ON THE BOAT WITH ME. I HOPE YOU DONT MIND?

—————

Star kisses back eagerly but Aspen thinks she might sense a bit of hesitance behind it

Star: MWEHEHE YOU BET!! JUST WATCH, ILL DO STRIKES EVERY ROUND!!!

Oh it is on!!

[palomahasenteredthechat]

Same anon that sent the long post and I have another one I'm sorry. Thank you for answering. I'm glad I explained myself okay, I was worried I was just going to sound entitled and rude. I just wanted to say that I was going to mention the Off Menu podcast but I decided to keep it Eddie related since that was my ultimate point and to mention it would require more explaining. Hence this long message. Basically yes I am one of those people that felt that way and I kept that to myself because everyone loved it. I don't want to ignite anything here about it because over time I have seen people mention this since it happened, but it was the picky eater comment for me. I know the internet tends to have this mindset lately that everything everyone says, is said with the worst possible intension. Like you say you like cats you must HATE dogs and you're being cancelled now for it. So I tried not to read into it, I really did. But he brought it up again in another interview after and then another just recently and to me that was him doubling down on his stance so I think it's fair for me to say he has thought about what he said and still agrees with it. Let's be real for a sec, I'm a picky eater. So of course this looks like I'm just butthurt and taking it personally. But I'm autistic. I can't help it. I have a brother that has it worse than me, he SUFFERS with ARFID. Yes, I know that Joseph probably wasn't including people like me or him in his statement. He doesn't need to preference everything he says with "obviously I'm not talking about people with disabilities, eating disorders etc" because he didn't indicate any disdain for those kinds of people specifically and no one should immediately be taking what he said in a negative light like that and assuming he's an asshole. However, again my own personal views, thoughts and feelings. People like myself subconsciously think before I speak "If I say this, could it offend or hurt anyone? Will it perpetuate and or make worse an already existing issue?" Of course everyone has moments where they don't realize what they're saying could be harmful. But, idk. Let me just paste the exact quote from the transcript here and see what we think about it: Joe Quinn Eat it, it's delicious, do you know what I mean? Or, 'Oh, I don't like fish.' But, it's clearly something psychological that they just need to-, get over it, eat it, it's good. Joseph. Some people DO have psychological issues with food. For myself it's certain textures. But to think that I had not just considered or tried to "get over it" is at the very least tone-deaf and at the worst, straight up ableist. 🤷‍♀️ I tried to rationalize it in my mind as him just venting, talking out his ass, whatever. But ultimately it made me realize that he is very privileged to be healthy and what he probably considers "normal" and I don't see him actually understanding that fact. Especially when he doubles down on it years later. He gives me "telling someone suffering with depression to get over it and smile more" vibes. It came off as pretentious, uninformed and to be honest just plain rude. I will also add that taking disabilities out of the equation he still failed to consider social classes, wealth and food availability. Would he tell an adult that grew up without access to fresh vegetables to just get over it and eat them because it annoys him that they won't? I don't claim to know. But my gut says yes.

I think it started off as his sense of humor, and maybe it was an in-joke with his friends, but as was discussed earlier, he seems to be 'leaning in' to the persona more.

The cilantro thing - 'I don't believe those people'; well then you don't have the gene that makes it taste like dish soap.

I have experience with food allergies, and I always take food preferences seriously, because unfortunately for some folks it's life and death.

Late night thoughts with me✨✨

I have some personal headcanons about some Pokémon characters

I’d like to think Elesa is trans, because why can’t the star model be a trans lesbian. Let her be fabulous and proud!

N supposed to be very like somewhat dignified but I want him to be weird. Just a weird lad that needs to see the sun more often. Let him eat gum like he thinks it’s normal to swallow the foil with it. Let. Him. Be. Quirky.

I’m biased but Cilan? Dude’s supposed to be cilantro but he’s a fruit, no further questions (HE IS MY COMFORT DISASTER SUPPORTING CHARACTER)

What if Emmet was colorblind but Ingo wasn’t? Or vice versa? That’d be funny

Plumeria’s bi in my head and if I could I would write her like she’s that fun but mean aunt

Akari and Rei are twins because think about it. It could be the Pokémon version of dipper and Mabel. Kamado could be grunkle stan.

I haven’t researched much about Greta but for some reason I though Greta and Nemona were sisters/related. Because they both have dark hair with a single color going through it and are also very strong trainers and are super close? So in my head they’re sisters.

I think all Eevee trainers are like a stereotype in Pokémon like how dog/cat people are. “Oh you have lol Eevees? How’s your scratched up couch?”

I like how with the new gimmicks for the new games it all revolves around crystals/gems. Mega needed shiny stones, z-moves too, dynamax kind of? (Can’t remember if it was a shooting star or just a gem in the ground that you get to get a band) (not a big fan of sword/shield), and now it’s a tera orb and tera crystals. Watch the next game gets cards to do cool stuff with.

[schizoleonkennedy]

Cap @captains-price tagged me in a "get to know your mutuals" thing so here we go :3c

Three ships:

I'm with Cap ngl, Soap/Gaz is EVERYTHING. They're the silly goofy pair who pretend they aren't traumatized until they're alone together

I'll always love GLaDOS/Chell tbh.. They're the middle school pairing I'll never grow out of. Enemies to lovers? No. Enemies AND lovers.

And finally, Shepard/Garrus/Tali!! I like the wee space polycule. They're funny lol. Love the though of Garrus and Tali being tech nerds and hyping up their jock girlfriend lol.

First ever ship:

Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable!! Maybe it was projection but I needed that wee Jewish boy to get it lol. It got me hooked on capable women/idiot guy ships lolol

Last song:

Dumb by Nirvana! Been on a real Nirvana kick lately ngl

Last movie:

It was probably Skinamarink?? I absolutely loved it, but I really don't think the movie is for everyone! I'd rate it 9.6/10 regardless tho :]

Currently reading:

I'm mostly in between books rn!! Finished up Flawed Dogs (I recommend it!! NOW!!!) and P.S. Your Cat is Dead (great book as well), but I'm gunna start the Demon Trapper series soon!!

Currently watching:

Been watching PokerFace! I'm a big fan of murder mystery shows and it feels like a modern Columbo so I'm obviously really into it lol. Love shows w Jewish leads who seem incompetent but are actually really smart and capable

Currently consuming:

Sorry to the younger than 18/21 crowd, but I don't work tomorrow so I just slammed a buzzball lmao 👌

Currently craving:

Oh lord am I craving elote... elote and tacos with heavy cilantro please and thank you 🥺

I tag all of my mutuals but mostly @gaytwoface to remind him to do this

The Comprehensive List of Questions That No One Asks

feat. Arshadaya Idaeus

favorite vegetable: he'd say he's a decent fan of onions. yes, of course, the layers, but just a good solid veggie.

how many blankets on bed: probably just one or two, but they're really nice and cozy, high quality materials.

do they know how to set a table: he knows several highly specific ways from a variety of cultures throughout history.

if they had to dye their hair another color, what would it be: maybe a pale creamy blond - almost white but not quite.

generally, how much would they tip at a restaurant: generally, more than the meal itself. coin doesn't mean a lot to him but he understands it means quite a lot to mortals, and he has plenty.

what gas station food do they buy for themselves: hot dogs, bugles, kit kats, and mountain dew.

what gas station food do they buy for someone else: jerky, donuts, hot or iced coffee or cocoa.

least favorite smell: things along the lines of "new car smell" or "tires", chemical smells like bleach

is there something distinct about their teeth: f a n g s - that in and of itself isn't too distinct, but being a shapeshifter, sometimes while he's talking (see: particularly in situtions where someone might have invoked his ire) you might see them all begin to sharpen, and there might seem to be more than their ought to be, in fact his mouth seems bigger, and his bones are cracking, changing, and- (the rest has been redacted)

what pyramid scheme are they most likely to fall for: he has probably played a role in engineering a number of such schemes

favorite soup: oh yay i misread this as soap at first and was like aww but what if soup and it WAS- anyway. he likes a lot of soups, he is such an autumn guy and what is autumn without soup, right? but one specifically? it is absolutely autumn squash soup from panera bread with the little pumpkin seeds in it.

least favorite instrument: tuba.

they buy 5 things at the grocery store, what are they: eggs, squash, brown sugar, pineapple, jimmy deans pancakes and sausage on a stick

what temperatures do they keep their thermostat at: 65 in the summer, 75 in the winter (fahrenheit)

in what order do they get dressed: underwear, shirt, [does anything that needs to be done with hair], socks, pants, any outer layers like vest, jacket, etc., any necessary belts or accessories, boots, gloves if required.

favorite tree: bristlecone pine

are they good at wrapping presents: you see, yes, but often he just has fun with it instead and thinks messily wrapped gifts have more 'charm' and are 'unique'.

do they have any food allergies, or the cilantro gene: he was slightly allergic to a pineapple-like fruit back in the farflung past, but it specifically is gone now. cilantro definitely tastes like soap though.

how do they kiss: definitely varies from lover-to-lover, one situation to the next, or even moment-to-moment. generally almost surprisingly delicate though, but very much with intent. he's a charmer, but actual intimacy is so very far on the backburner. with someone he feels more comfortable with, however, he can be quite... voracious. Some might say "too much tongue" but that's because sometimes his tongue is very long and more like a tentacle - and speaking of tentacles... (that gets off topic though)

how do they handle an awkward moment in front of others: laughter, usually. he's very inclined to laugh just about any and everything off. if things are a bit more serious, however, he'll sometimes just make himself more quietly scarce and fade to the background.

what is a gross habit they have but no one knows about: you know the ongoing joke about how the wol just. puts things in their mouth? arsh. especially if it's something he's never seen or encountered before. in the mouth you go. or at least a tentative lick.

would they be able to parallel park: ...after a fashion. no, the first time might not go so well, but after that, no problems.

what is a niche youtube genre they would enjoy: oh geez, he would be into mukbang ajweoigjwae

if they are going to make fun of someone, what would it be for: ignorance. the belligerant, willful kind.

favorite swear word: "swiving"

least favorite book they have ever read: "Birth of Wood", an old, fantastical take on the creation of the world (specifically, the Black Shroud) in the style of what ultimately boils down to bad mythological smut. The word 'Freudian' comes to mind, but in a context that one can barely makes heads or tails of as to whether the author meant to be truly theoretical or purely fictitious.

an aspect they do not like about their partner(s) but love them anyway for: so this answer might feel a little "corny/over-the-top". arsh loves quite a lot, but in the sense of loving a partner, it's a little trickier. he is very old, and sees and understands very much, so there isn't generally a lot in a person he'd end up attracted to that he wouldn't like per se, these things all make up who they are. that said, feelings of self-loathing or self-doubt he wishes did not trouble them so much. that or, "holding on too tightly to the past" (within his idea of reason).

favorite article of jewelry to wear: a ring with a red glistening shard of dalamud, feathers in his hair

least favorite texture or fabric: for texture, anything chalky or chalkboard-like. fabric, probably polyester

if you could describe them using only kinds of fast food, what would they be: sausage egg and cheese mcgriddle. autumn squash soup. spicy double steak grilled cheese burrito.  he's a warm comforting meal, but sometimes he's that awful thing that's gonna fuck you up a little.

The Amnesiac : ep30

Bet It All On Red

Dining options are nearly nonexistent along the Redwood Highway north of Eureka. We pass the occasional run down burger stand or chicken shack, places that are more likely to give you food poisoning than a packet of ketchup. The freshest food in a hundred mile radius is the meat the vultures are plucking off of the roadkill. We’re famished after the stressful ride out to and from Fern Canyon and we’ve got high hopes for fine dining ahead when we pass the sign that says “Klamath 6 Miles.”

Klamath it turns out is not actually a city. It’s a single boulevard in the middle of an Indian reservation, with a tribally owned gas station, a post office, and a surprisingly large Holiday Inn Express. “The cashier tells me the food is pretty good next door at the casino” River says as she returns from the gas station bathroom. I give River an approving head nod and thumbs up, then tap the fuel nozzle twice on the gas cap to keep fuel from dripping on the gas tank, then I replace the nozzle on the pump.

—

The one thing that’s not a gamble at the casino is the food. It is delicious, and certainly better than the hair-covered hot dogs on the rollers at the gas station. The burger is stacked high with haystack onions, barbecue sauce and blue cheese crumbles. River’s fish tacos are lightly breaded and criss crossed with a jalapeño and cilantro aioli drizzle over a bed of cabbage and freshly made corn tortillas. We splurge and share a soda when we see that they’ve got the crunchy little ice pellets that look like rabbit shit. The little ice pellets displace most of the soda but turn what remains into a slushy. We ask for extra ice and crunch it loudly as we giggle with our mouths open much to the annoyance of the waitress.

It’s not even noon yet, but this day has already changed my life forever. This universal connection between us is profound. River is giggling and smiling and enjoying her lunch. But I’m watching her in a world without time. I see her morphing before my very eyes, from a girl, to a woman, to part of my family, to the mother of my children. I blink hard and lightning bolts flash behind my eyelids, as I see her walking through a grassy field of fallen leaves holding hands with our children. They’re wearing OshKosh B’gosh overalls and converse sneakers with white rubber toes and velcro instead of laces.

I see destiny.

The universe is speaking through me in a world without time. This isn’t a journey to find my iPhone. This is a journey to find myself. A journey, not just to piece together the memories I lost, but to define the path for the remainder of my days. It is no accident that we are here together.

“Floody. Floody! Floody!!”

I snap out of my daydream.

“I lost you there for a minute buddy. Whatcha thinking about?”

“I want to tell you River, but I don’t want to scare you away.”

“You’re not going to scare me away.”

“Promise?”

“I promise.”

“Even if I say something completely nutty?”

“Floody, this entire morning has been filled with you saying things that are completely nutty and you haven’t scared me away yet.”

“I was imagining your future River.”

“Oh?”

“I was imagining our future.”

“Ohh … like ‘our’ future?”

“Yes.”

“And what did you see in ‘our’ future?”

“Fam … uh … River, I wasn’t imagining your future. I was imagining my future, and you were in it. That’s all I’m going to say.”

“Golden retriever.”

“What?”

“If you and I end up together and someday you decide to surprise me with a puppy … I want a golden retriever. And an SUV. If you get me a minivan, I’ll leave you. Like … immediately.”

“Oh. Okay. Do you think you would ever have … kids … to go along with that golden retriever?”

“Oh wow. You really were thinking about our future there Mr. Flood. Is that what you were imagining?”

“Yes. I mean no. Actually, I did mean yes.”

River takes a big mouthful of ice and crunches on it playfully.

“No minivans.”

8. Share a weird fact or story about yourself: In like sixth grade I did a weird thing where I would just wrap myself around stationary objects. The inside corner of a hallway, a fire hydrant outside, a light pole, a picture of a cactus on a wall, I embraced them.

10. What's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen? You :)

14. Meaning behind profile picture/username? Right now my pfp is misha because tumblr told me to. It's supposed to be uruma from juujika no rokunin because I like his happy smile.

@1000deer @falsegrey @rottingelysium @nonamehorse @kira-serialfaggot @theoneofwhomisblue @knifegrrrl1312 @293dcellbatteries @yozora1326 @homosexualasstransbian

I'm sorry all of you

“I just came from r/196” ask game

Saw another post. I think I should invite y'all to one of our longstanding traditions. Answer the questions then tag 10 (or more) people. I'll go first.

Name? Frankie

Pronouns and gender? he/they/it, transmasc

Sexuality? Lesbian

Country? USA

Top 5 fandoms? Bungou Stray Dogs, Cosmere, All for the Game, Fundiesnark (not a series but I'm too deep in it to not consider it a fandom), .....the tornado fandom? (they're my special interest)

What is your Most forbidden snack? The preserved bones at the Atlanta Bodies Exhibition. They looked so crunchy...

Would you pet a bug? If it's big enough, it is pettable.

Share a weird fact/story about yourself with the class. I like to drive around rural areas and photograph old, sometimes abandoned locations in the dead of night. I have been literally chased out of towns by foot and by car on two separate occasions. The second time this happened, "See You Again" by Miley Cyrus came up on shuffle and that's the soundtrack my friend and I tore out of town to. Also every "guy" I've dated except for my most recent ex (who has big egg energy) is a lesbian now.

What does the color blue taste like? Creme brulee

What is the most beautiful thing you've ever seen? The appalachian mountains of Tennessee in the middle of summer. There's kudzu everywhere. On the backroads, there were several old, dilapidated Baptist churches barely hanging to the side of the mountain. I wonder how many of them were still in use.

What is the stupidest thing you've ever done? Short version: my friend's house almost got broken into by this dude who'd been stalking us for months while we were home alone. Instead of calling the cops, we decided to confront him with a bow and arrow (me), a hatchet, and a baseball bat (him). The plan was that if it went badly, we would simply throw his corpse into one of the many lakes in the neighborhood and let the alligators eat his remains (this was Florida). Why? Because we were afraid of having our home-alone privileges revoked. Luckily for us all, the guy fucked off and we never saw him again.

Stupidest thing you've seen/heard someone else do/say? My ex thought that Jackalopes were real. Also, a nurse I was doing rotations with apparently thought that "Witness Protection" was for Jehovah's Witnesses.

Hyperfixation song? Young Enough + Bleach by Charly Bliss

Is there any meaning behind your profile picture and/or username? Profile pic; I'm transmasc and I'm currently obsessed with TriStamp. Username; It was my fake internet name when I was like 13. I won't change it because I want my mutuals to recognize me, and because I do have a viral post associated with this name.

Dream career as a child? Doctor (funnily enough I'm now in nursing school)

Dream career as an adult? Professional Jester. Not a comedian. I just want to be some weird little guy who dresses silly and you can hire me to roast your boss at work parties.

Thoughts on cilantro? Delicious

Have you ever been banned from a location and if so, why? I honestly can't remember? Probably... but in recent memory I've mainly banned people from places.

What is your cursed food combination? Pineapple on a hotdog with grilled onions. It Slaps.

Trans rights? TRANS RIGHTS
