#oh to be a frog in the frog planter

[nymla]

Hello there dear humans. How is your June going?

This mug was actually made two years ago. But sadly the glaze ended up not being food safe. So finally I made it, and a bunch of other mugs, into little planters!

Of course I didn't just discard them - what a waste of time and materials and resources - now they can have a new life 🐸🌿 They all have a drainage hole and a little plate.

(Several of them are available in the shop!)

I have been planning to sometime make a new mug with this same concept of the frogs and tadpoles and maybe some kelp (oh lordi I love the look of kelp) - ofc it would look different and hopefully improved but using the same idea - and make a slipcasting mold for it. Whata you think about that?

[tea-plantz]

Ok ok okkk, so I got this really cute idea! It’s about my girl, Anne! (I feel like I haven’t gotten to write much about Anne, because I haven’t really gotten that many requests about her, therefore I took matters into my own hands)

She/her for Anne

They/them for the reader

Anne Boonchuy x reader

Ok so this is sorta like a little imagine/oneshot thingie!

So, imagine that you were Anne’s crush before she got trapped in Amphibia! And since you weren’t really a part of her friend group, you weren’t there when the girls opened the box in the park.

And now, Anne finally gets to see you again after so long!

This takes place in s3 episode ep2. Yk, the episode where Anne and the Plantars go to the mall so Anne can ‘test’ them? Yeah that one

Anne’s POV:

I was at the mall, seeing if the Planters were to be trusted in my world. I gave each one of them their own little task, and so far things where going pretty well!

‘Maybe we can actually manage to go one day without almost dying!’ I smiled to myself.

Then, all of a sudden I heard a familiar voice behind me. “Oh my gosh, Anne?!” (I don’t remember if this is what she actually says in the episode, but meh) ‘On no’ I turned around as I came face to face with an all too familiar ginger. Maggie.

“Hi Magg-“ before I was able to finish my sentence, she flung out and hugged me.

“Where have you been?! It’s been like five months! Didn’t you die?” (I still don’t know if this is what she actually said ok?😭)

“I was uuuuh.. in my family’s farm.. in… Alaska..?”

Maggie kept talking to my about some rando couple at school, “catching me up” on all the drama I missed, apparently. I was honestly trying to avoid her, since I needed to keep an eye on my frog family, plus I didn’t really care. However, she kept talking to me, not getting the hint at all.

I sighted, realizing that she wouldn’t go away. As I zoned out, my eyes drifted over to random places in the mall, searching for anything interesting to look at, when I suddenly caught sight of them. Y/n L/n. My crush. They were sitting over by one of the food courts, scrolling through their phone while sipping from the straw of a milkshake. My whole body tensed up as I stared at them, completely forgetting that Maggie was there, until she gasped violently and almost gave me a heart attack, that is.

“Oh my god, I totally forgot, you’re still crushing on Y/n!” She squealed loudly. My whole face turned to the color of a tomato as I shoved my hands in front of Maggie’s mouth.

“Shh! Don’t just shout that out loud!” I turned around to see if they had herd her, but luckily, my crush was still paying attention to their phone.

“Phew! They didn’t hear you… wait, how do you even know about that! I never told you anything about my love life!”

“Oh please Anne, it was sooo obvi! You totally suck at hiding the fact that you’re in love~” she said in a teasing voice.

I groaned as burrowed my face in my hands from both irritation and embarrassment.

“They are still single, by the way”

“Wait, they are?” I looked up as Maggie started laughing.

“C’mon lovergirl, just go up and talk to them”

She shoved me in their direction pretty hard as I stumbled forward. I was feeling really nervous right now. It’s not like I’ve never talked to Y/n before, but it’s been such a long time! Plus, we weren’t even that close before I got transported! ‘No, you know what, Anne? You’ve grown so much in Amphibia! This is just a pice of cake, you can do this!’

I took a deep breath before I started walking towards them, as I herd Maggie yell behind me.

“Good luck Anne, and welcome back from Alaska!”

Your POV:

I was sitting at a table at the mall, feeling more bored than ever. My friends had some stuff they had to get done today, so I was completely alone. I let out a sigh as I kept scrolling through social media, not really doing anything in specific.

Then, I decided to look up from my phone, just to look around the mall and see if anything interesting was going on. But the second I did, my eyes shot wide open. Is that… Anne?! I could feel my head almost explode with questions as I saw the brunette walking towards me, looking kinda nervous? ‘Huh, I wonder why?’.

“Anne?! Is that really you?” I got up from my seat as I ran towards her, giving her a quick hug. As I did, I could feel Anne tense up. She even started to stutter a bit.

“Y-yup, it’s me hehe.. god ol’ Anne..” she made finger guns as she spoke, whilst laughing awkwardly. “surprise..? ….I’ve been talking for to long”

I giggle at Anne’s weird antics as I notice her cheeks turning a slight shade darker.

‘That’s weird.. could she be blushing because of me?…. Nah’

“Where have you been all this time? I honestly thought you where kidnapped or something, no joke”

“Oh you know… just visiting my relatives and such in Alaska haha” Anne avoids my gaze as she says this, while sweat dropping a little. I must admit, I don’t fully believe her, but I won’t question it.

Anne’s POV

��Omgomgomgomggg I can’t believe I’m talking to them again after so long! Gah, and I’m acting so weird too! Snap out of it Anne!’

We keep talking a little, catching up and just simply chatting with each other. It feels nice.. although I can’t help but noticing my face heat up a little as I’m nervously swaying back and forth on my heals whilst talking to them. I even added in some flirtatiously comments here and there, and woof my flirting skills are absolutely horrible!

‘I’m usually so good at talking to people, but Y/n makes it so hard! Why must romance be so difficult?!’

Then all of a sudden, we’re both interrupted by a loud crass.

“Woah, what was that?!” Y/n says as they look around, confused.

“I don’t know… wait” oh no… I completely forgot, the Plantars!

“ Sorry Y/n, gotta run, nice talking to you love ya, byeeeee” I yell as I run off.

Y/n POV

… well that was weird-

——————————————————————————

Anne’s POV:

“Phew, that was close” I panted out as me and the Planters where hiding with the trash cans behind the mall. I felt kinda bad since I had pushed them so hard, but luckily, everything worked out in the end as usual.

We where just about to leave when Sprig spoke up.

“Hey Anne, I noticed that you where talking to another one of your kind, but you looked really nervous? Why? Are they dangerous?” He whispered while leaning closer to me with a suspicious look.

“What?! Haha pff no, I was not nervous, whaaaat? Who’s Anne?! … Alright let’s leave” my face flushed red as I nervously looked around, trying to play it cool, but quite obviously, failing miserably.

Polly and Sprig looked at each other, sharing a smug grin as they giggled. Hop-hop on the other hand, placed his hands to his hips and started another lecture about the “good old days” and “tradition”.

“Why yes, I saw you talking to this person too. You even said ‘love ya’ to them! You know back in my days we didn’t even-“

“I SAID WHAT?!”

This honestly turned out a lot longer then I intended, but oh whatever, it’s cute! Fr though I love Amphibia s3 sm!!

Hunter: Hello, Mayor Molly McGee Stein-Torres Chen Davenport.

Molly: And hello to you, Hunter Caleb Deamonne Blight Porter Clawthorne Noceda Park! Have you seen my cousin, Anne Savisa Boonchuy Plantar Waybright Wu?

Hunter: Last I checked she was with my sister, Luz Noceda Clawthorne Whispers Of Demons Blight and her frog brother, Sprig Plantar Boonchuy Sundew Flour.

Molly: Really? Cause I asked her wives, Commander Sasha Elizabeth Boonchuy Planter Wu Grimes Waybright and Marcy Regina Boonchuy Plantar Wu Longclaw Waybright, and they assured me that she wasn’t there. I also asked your brother, Gus Porter Noceda Clawthorne Blight Park Tholomule and your wife, Willow Park Noceda Clawthorne Deamonne Blight and they said she wasn’t with them either.

Hunter: Mmm…Did you check with Dr Jan & Terri?

Molly: Oh no I didn’t good thinking. *pulls out her phone and texts them*

those 2 would be the only ones who enjoy their little "Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla" joke, everyone else gets both tired of it and terrified/impressed that they can keep all of those names straight without messing up once

"Hey Harl—oh, did you get a new planter box? It looks really nice!" Gabi said with a grin, walking into the house to find their resident gardener watering his grapes.

"Yeah, I figured we could use another source of food," Harley explained.

"How much did it cost?" Gabi asked with a chuckle.

"Why? We're not exactly running low on simoleons," Harley replied curiously, glancing down at their household funds. They had almost 700 still.

"I'm kidding," Gabi smiled. "David — the blond guy from the Bed & Breakfast — came by. He wanted an update, and the conversation turned to simoleons. He suggested we help pay off the Simoleon Camp's debt. What do you think?"

"We could certainly do that! I can run a yard sale tomorrow morning. We don't have much food to spare, but I do have some frogs in my inventory we could sell... and maybe, if you want, some of your photos?"

"Yeah? You think they'd sell?" Gabi smiled.

"Of course! You're getting really good. Some of them are outstanding — at a markup they could be worth 40 or 50 simoleons each if we're lucky!" Harley complimented her, causing Gabi's smile to widen even more.

I Don’t Really Like Sasha Waybright: A Look Into Redemption Arcs

Oh boy, it’s time for me to make another analysis piece based on some dumb Disney cartoon. This time though, it’s about the Frog Show™ and not the Owl Show™, because I also like Amphibia, warts and all. (yes, that was an intentional toad pun)

As the title would suggest though, we’re going into territory about a character I’m not particularly fond of, despite how much the fanbase seems to collectively like her, and that’s Sasha Waybright. I’ve never really been a fan of her, which some people I know have found somewhat amusing given that I tend to like similar characters. While that is sort of true, I’d argue it’s not quite true either. It’s complicated. In order to really get into it, I’m going to have to talk about spoilers for several shows... so spoilers for Amphibia, The Owl House, Gravity Falls, and The Ghost and Molly McGee. As always, it’ll be under the cut.

Oh, and before I get under the cut, I just wanna say one thing real quick for the people who see this under the Sasha Waybright tag: I’m not trying to shit on your good time, I’m tagging the post with her name because it’s largely about my opinion of the character (and to a lesser extent, Sasha ships, but I won’t be tagging the ships because that’s not relevant enough for the bulk of the post).

Anyway, onto the meat of the post:

Watching Amphibia is something that came about for me because I enjoyed The Owl House immensely, and because Matt Braly also worked on Gravity Falls (which was, until TOH wrapped, my favorite show). The show has a charm that took a little bit for me to really “get,” but I’ve since come to really appreciate the show in a lot of ways. Particularly, I think “The Hardest Thing” is singlehandedly one of the best finales of all time, and I’d personally rank it higher than both The Owl House’s AND Gravity Falls’ (though I don’t really like GF’s finale, which I’m gonna make a post about eventually). I think Amphibia’s emotional moments are genuinely better than the ones in TOH, but the show is still not quite as good over all. This isn’t meant to be a dig at Matt and his team, I still love Amphibia, but it’s not my favorite show, y’know?

As far as the cast of Amphibia is concerned, I grew to like Anne a lot as the series progressed, and she exhibited a strong character arc from a bit of an entitled brat that shirked responsibility into a responsible person who is empathetic to the needs of others. Her and her found frog family are a highlight of the show, and lead to some great comedy and emotional moments. When Marcy debuted, I was instantly like “yes this is my favorite character” because she’s just a genuine delight to watch, and I’m really sad she didn’t get used more as the series went along.

Sasha, on the other hand, was a character that I just never clicked with. The first impression I had of the character was that she was going to showcase the opposite end of the development spectrum, where she would gradually become a worse person, or that her negative qualities would be highlighted more so than her positive ones. I wasn’t entirely wrong by the end of Season 2, and when we got to her sort of redemption in Season 3, the show kind of lost me a bit.

The problem I have with the character is basically rooted in the fact that she enters the show a kind of toxic person, and then she just kind of decides to change because one of her friends got mortally wounded, and she feels guilty over stuff that happened as a result of her treacherous actions earlier in the story. She was willing to do whatever it took to get home, even if it meant manipulating people and killing those who stood in her way. She had no issue with the idea of killing the Planters, and often showed she didn’t care if she hurt people until it was too late. I get this was done to emphasize that Sasha needed to grow up, change, and become a better person... but I still think the way it was done leaves a lot to be desired.

The issue is more so how it was built up. For basically two seasons, we get to know this girl who is all kinds of toxic, and the show works hard to showcase that she’s not above lying to her close friends about her intentions to get what she wants. She learned nothing from the events at Toad Tower, despite suggesting Anne would be better off without her in the end of that whole thing. The next time we see her, she’s pissed that Anne didn’t side with her, and that she sided with frogs, which she has been told are lower on the societal/racial hierarchy by the toads. There’s a racism allegory in there somewhere, but I’m not particularly interested in getting too deep into that can of worms.

She then shrugs off Percy and Braddock’s desire to leave when facing the Narwhal Worm in “Barrel’s Warhammer,” despite saying she would leave if they wanted to. She then basically plays Anne and Marcy for fools by inciting a rebellion in Newtopia in “True Colors.” She put up the front of being better to Anne and Marcy because she wanted control, because she’s made to be the toxic “friend” that craves control. Sure, she has moments where she clearly feels a bit bad for being like this, but she doesn’t learn her lesson until one of her friend is nearly killed in front of her. She only cares about the consequences of her shitty behavior after she has to face losing someone she cares about for real.

Now, I know someone would likely point out that a lot of characters that can come off as mean or toxic have similar moments of revelation... but I don’t really think this is the case.

Let’s take one of the biggest points of comparison for Sasha from The Owl House, Amity Blight, and compare elements of their arcs from “jerk” to “good person.”

Amity obviously starts the series as something of a bully character, with a need to be seen as “the best,” and is willing to humiliate Willow to remind everyone how great she is. It takes her being humiliated by Lilith and Eda’s cheating during her and Luz’s duel, and Luz showing how determined she is to be a witch for Amity to soften up. She recognizes Luz is doing her best, despite being a magicless human in a world of witches and demons, and softens up. She’s still wary of Luz until after Luz helps her deal with the corrupted Otabin in “Lost in Language” for her to really see that Luz is a good person. From here, she gradually continues to become a better person, because Luz’s positivity has that effect on her.

By the time she has to face the consequences of trying to uphold her reputation nearly causing Willow to lose all of her memories, Amity realizes that she’d become a bad person, and actively begins to truly improve. She attempts to mend the rift between her and Willow that was caused by her parents demands as a kid, and she eventually distances herself from Boscha during the events of “Wing It Like Witches,” saying that she made her social life better by cutting Boscha out of it. Her growing feelings for Luz culminate in her finally standing up to her mother’s abusive ass to save the person she’s grown to love, who is also the person that lit the fires of change within her. She accomplishes this in a way that is organic. Seeing her go from stuck up to a girl doing her best to make her girlfriend happy just makes me smile.

Let’s use another example: Pacifica Northwest from Gravity Falls.

Pacifica starts her time in Gravity Falls as a foil to Mabel, serving as the bratty rich girl who thinks she’s above everyone. She gets humbled a few times as part of a gag, but when “The Golf War” and “Northwest Mansion Mystery” (which is my favorite episode of the show btw) take place, Pacifica begins to showcase some added depth. We see first hand that she has a lot of expectations placed on her by her parents, and they have a Pavlovian response to an abusive method of control via her father’s bell that she is conditioned to see as “you’re acting out of line for a Northwest.”

When she learns that her family’s current situation (the Lumberjack Ghost) is a result of the family’s poor attitude about “common folk” and lies told in the past, she is visibly shaken that her family is as bad as Dipper said it was. She then decides she wants to break free of her family’s twisted values, and while we don’t get to see that pay off much, she’s still seen as a better character by the end. This is one of the reasons I’m bitter that Gravity Falls only has 2 Seasons, as I feel like this would have allowed us to see Pacifica become an even better character, among other characters. To briefly mention shipping, part of the reason I love the idea of Dipcifica is because it highlights how Dipper had a profoundly positive impact on Pacifica’s life, even if just for that one episode, because it’s through her interactions with him that she was forced to confront how her family truly is, and how she desires to improve as a result. It’s kind of like... a straight prototype for how Lumity panned out, ironically enough.

To use a more modern example: Andrea Davenport from The Ghost and Molly McGee.

Andrea’s not really a character with a full blown arc, but she is far from the worst person around. She’s a girl who has her moments that reflect Pacifica’s early days, but with a more livestreamer mindset, and she has more compassion from the outset than Pacifica. She does things so her parents will praise her, much like Amity, but is also fully committed to helping people who are nice to her. Even though her and Molly got off on the wrong foot, the fact that Andrea is shown to be Molly’s friend when things get bad for Molly and her family around “Home is Where the Haunt Is,” Andrea uses her social media influence to help raise money to save the McGee’s house.

Season 2 of the show, thus far, has shown Andrea to be a good person, and is super supportive of Libby during “A Period Piece,” despite their past history. In the most recent episode of time of writing, “Davenport’s On Demand,” Molly gets Andrea into coding, and makes an app to help her family’s business. When she learns how the app is threatening the livelihoods of the other businesses of Brighton, she decides to delete the app, and works with Molly (and, unknowingly, a reluctant Scratch) to do so. It’s at least somewhat clear that Andrea actually values Molly’s opinion at this point, and seems to be positively influenced by Molly’s chipper vibes. While it’s not the most drastic character arc or anything, and actually feels like it’s missing a little bit of context, it still works because Andrea is has more room to grow, as the show is not finished yet.

Something the three I just mentioned all have in common is a positive influence on their lives. While it can certainly be argued that the positive impacts aren’t super comparable, insofar that they have varying degrees of depth of impact on said characters, it’s undeniable that there’s a moment where, because of a positive influence in their lives, the three girls begin to change for the better. Think of it like a sort of Olive Branch to become a better person, and they take it. How far they get in that journey of self improvement is not important, because they got the chance to improve and took it. They all feel earned to some extent, in my opinion, because there’s a bit of a gradual curve to seeing how they act.

Sasha, on the other hand, doesn’t feel like she earned her sudden chance at redemption. While she certainly puts on a good show, and makes good on her desire to change for the better, I find that because we had two whole seasons of her being a pretty crappy person, only to have the show give her one episode to improve as a person before Anne gets back to Amphibia and works with Sasha again... it just feels like Sasha got replaced at some point, and while the character looks and sounds like her, we didn’t really see much of the transformation, and I find that extremely jarring.

Pacifica is a character that, in basically 2 episodes, managed to get the depth needed to make her shift into a better person feel like we got to see her improve in real time. We even have a comic where we get to see Pacifica improve a bit more helps too.

In the case of Andrea, we see how her need for validation from her parents has affected her, and that’s why she’s so obsessed with the instant gratification of her online following’s praise, and why, after Molly helped her like, once, she was so quick to call Molly her best friend. Plus, there’s still more time for her to improve even more, as The Ghost and Molly McGee is currently airing it’s second season at time of writing.

Amity is the one that has the best arc of the ones mentioned, because we see her gradually change. They showed a gradual shift in her character, and the reason for that shift being Luz also lead into the best lesbian romance we’ve ever had in almost anything ever, period. We get a full display of how Amity grows as a person, and that helps make her shift feel believable and earned.

Sasha doesn’t really have that moment. She changes as a result of a bad thing happening to her. While you could say that is a realistic response, we don’t really get much in the way of a change. One day she decides to be a better person, and then we see her as a better person. While I’m not saying we needed a whole ass season dedicated to Sasha improving as a person, it’d have felt a lot better from a writing stand point if she was given more than a single episode to actually turn over a new leaf.

While one could easily argue that Sasha had moments throughout the show of expressing some semblance of doubt in regards to how she was acting, and that she showed signs of regret for being the way she was, she continued to be that kind of person anyway. She continued to manipulate people, and try to control things, until Marcy got a sword shoved through her chest. And while that’s not the worst reason for a change, people don’t just change who they are overnight, or even a few days. She needed more time to show that the change was something that she had earned, rather than just tell us “Sasha’s gonna be a better person starting... now!”

As for me mentioning ships... I feel like this is one of those instances where I know I’m going to get a little heat for saying it, but like, it genuinely feels like some people give Sasha a pass because she’s confirmed Bisexual, and we are sorely lacking positive queer characters in popular culture as a whole. I could make a whole ass post about queer characters (because man, as a queer person, I have a lot to say on how we view queer characters on the whole), but that’s for another time. I’ve never really liked Sashanne, Sasharcy, or Sashanarcy (I’m 10000% fine with polycules and polygamy, and if you aren’t, you can fuck right off), largely because I feel the romance well is too poisoned by Sasha’s past actions. I don’t really fuck with the idea of enemies to lovers much, and while they weren’t “enemies” persay, I feel like Anne and Marcy having dealt with Sasha’s more toxic side for as long as they did would make them wary of entering a romantic relationship with her, even if she didn’t regress into that mindset during said relationship. The shipping thing is totally a personal opinion though.

Anyway, hopefully I got across my feelings on Sasha as a character, and why I’m not the biggest fan. If you have anything you need me to try and clarify, then by all means, ask away via reblogs or replies. Otherwise, I look forward for the shit I’m gonna get for disliking a popular character. I guess I’ll see people in my next post lol.

Hello! Love the recent Marcy xShy reader post you did think you do a part 2 of what happens when all 4 meet up again maybe have Sasha and the reader get into a argument and Marcy goes to comfort them afterwards

Sure! And thankkss I honestly hoped someone would request for a part two sooo-

Sasha may be seen OOC but i need to remind y’all this is her BEFORE her development Sasha b4 that was a bit much 😭 (still love her tho 🫶)

Marcy Wu x Fem! Shy! Reader (pt 2)

Ever since that “incident” you honestly thought things were gonna be awkward

I mean okay, sure they were a little awkward but that was because it was an awkward nerd and another nerd who can’t keep a full conversation going

Other then that things were pretty chill although you couldn’t lie you still felt extremely guilty

I mean, sure you and Marcy didn’t kiss or anything like that but you still knew Sasha ever since you were kids even if she DID turn into maybe a psycho trying to kill one of Anne’s frog friends(?) (readers pov) you still cared about her in some way-

Recently you’ve gotten the other stones to open the calamity box and now you just had to do the last one

Which happened to be Sasha

And “Grime” or whatever according to Anne tried to kill “Hop Pop” (y/n doesn’t know the names okay 😭)

To say the least tension was in the air

With the planters and Grime and you Anne, Marcy and Sasha

It’s not like you hated her you were tense over having to end things with her, Marcy was tense due to guilt, Anne was tense due to well everything that happened

Now you took a breath in while walking out of the cave and walked over to Sasha

“That was surprisingly brave of you” you thought to yourself

“Hey Sasha…”

The blonde turned around to the h/c girl while she was talking to Grime

Grime seemed to get the message then clears his throat awkwardly

“I am not being involved in this, you can go and chat I’ll just be…..over there”

We watched him awkwardly walk away

“Sooo, Grime seems……interesting”

“Yea, Grimesy isn’t so bad once you get to know him…”

There was the awkwardnesss

You clear your throat again

“So, Sasha ever since we’ve been apart I’ve had time to…”

You notice Sasha yawning then she notices you staring

“Oh, I’m listening relax! It’s not like what your saying is gonna be a big deal anyway”

You take a short breath and stare at her

“it’s now or never” you thought

“Listen Sasha I’ve been thinking a lot and i believe that we should-“

“Hey, when you look at this cave when you look on the side, it kinda looks like a face”

“Sasha, i mean-“

“Our English class teacher back in 2nd grade!”

She laughs at it then notices you looking annoyed

“Why are you so upset-oh! don’t tell me Anne told you about it i mean, of course she did, listen n/n what happened was a misunderstanding and me and Anne made up so if your so mad about it-“

“It’s not about that Sasha-I’m sorry I-look, me and you are over-“

“What?!”

“I’m sorry, i hope you won’t hate me for it forever but i just can’t deal with this anymore-“

“Your…..your breaking up with me?! Why?!”

“It’s not you-i mean maybe it is you-or us both! I just-“

“After all the times i stuck up for you whenever they’d question why i went out with you, all those stuff I’d let you get, YOUR dumping me?!”

You honestly felt terrible but getting it over with now seems best….maybe

“Listen Sasha, you weren’t a horrible girlfriend i just don’t have strong feelings for you-“

“Don’t have strong feelings for me?! Why didn’t you tell me this before we landed in Amphibia?!”

“I wasn’t sure of it then! Maybe i didn’t tell you this often but i kinda thought you were a control freak!”

“I let you buy whatever you wanted!”

“YOU bought them for me, and when I’d try to ask something you’d completely dismiss my opinion!!”

You noticed Sasha seemed somewhat stunned by your courage but that quickly covered with rage

“Well what about the times we went to the movies i payed for everything!”

“YOU payed for the tickets i had to pay for the snacks and seats!!!”

The argument only just got longer you honestly didn’t wanna do this but honestly…..you had a lot of rage trapped inside you for years

“Okay maybe after all of that stuff, WHY did you actually dump me?”

“What…?”

“I’m not stupid y/n, there’s something your not telling me”

Ugh you knew Sasha could tell through lies as well as seeing through a telescope (bad comparison but honestly idc)

“Well, maybe it’s because i just don’t have feelings for you, ever thought of that?”

“I know that’s not it!”

“…”

“….Fine your not gonna tell me then, cool, maybe you were cheating on me and want an excuse while making it not be cheating? You were using me?! You-“

“I like someone else!”

“…”

“Well i…liked you at some point but i became more aware of these feelings later on…..and i wanna end things with you to attempt to not hurt you but, i guess i already did”

“….”

“I knew it….”

“I guess you wanna dump me for someone who might not even like you? Cool, maybe I’ll let you with open arms if you don’t come back too pathetic when they reject you”

And just like that she walked off

Ouch, it did sting though, it honestly hurt but you can’t expect much good from Sasha Waybright

It did hurt a lot though thinking about all of it, I’m not crying…..why are there tears rolling down my eyes

You noticed Sasha back talking to Grime and she looked at you for maybe a mil second then completely turned her head

It’s like she’s refused to even look at you

You were too caught up in your sadness to realise a certain bluettte noticed your sad frown

“Soo, do you wanna talk about it-“

You jump due to being caught up in your head you didn’t notice Marcy approaching you which resulted in her lightly giggling

“Oh! Sorry that was mean! Sorry for scaring you….heh”

“It’s….fine”

“Soo….do you wanna…..or-it’s okay really!-“

You turn your head around to see if it’s close to anyone hearing

“I’ll….tell you back here…”

You walk a bit behind the others so it’s not close to anyone except you and Marcy hearing and tell her everything

“And so then…..”

“And then?”

“I revealed i liked someone and well, I’m a horrible person….i think i hurt her…..”

“Ouch that sounds awful! For you-or her! Or well both?”

You knew Marcy had trouble deciding which “side” she should “be on” you honestly felt bad and felt she didn’t need to choose

“Um well i don’t think Sasha thinks your a horrible person maybe she was just a little mad-“

“No, i know what i did to her was wrong, i hurt her and she has every right to be upset with me but, the other stuff i just don’t want to make things awkward for you, and Anne, and stuck in Amphibia for crying out loud!”

You stop when Marcy hugs you

“You looked like you needed it-“

It’s a Fair Day

I do service with a Garden adjacent to a community college that offers classes in Ornamental Horticulture. OH for short. Once upon a time, I obtained a certificate but never used it except to observe the failures of water, fertilization, and neglect that go along with raising a family. Well, even the grandkids are grown (groan!) and Yours Truly is the only one doing the maintenance. There are four, no, five raised bed planters and two have things growing in them. I noticed a volunteer in one yesterday. Guess that means I should water it as thanks. I’m starting to do zucchini drive-bys.

Recently, I’ve gone native, joined California Native Plant Society, and want to add plants that are endemic. I learned at the CNPS meeting last night that California is a significantly important in plant diversity and San Diego is the most diverse. I kind of knew that. But I also know that development is destroying habitat. Vernal pools, for instance. Brodaeas (I can’t spell it) are little water-dwellers that lay dormant until it rains and puddles up. These environment sport brine shrimp (because the subsoil is impermeable, don’tyaknow) and other species. FROGS! Bugs the frogs eat. You get the picture.

Once you have learned things, how do you talk to normal people to get them to preserve the lived environment in a sustainable way? Maybe remove a lawn here, add a native buckwheat there? I worked at my brother’s house yesterday. The Bermuda grass is winning. If I mow, the seeds will fall and more will grow. Better to solarize (that is, lay a large sheet of plastic over the ground and smother the weeds, but the bugs and worms will be warm and cozy because they can ‘swim’ below the danger zone).

[belle-lilith-ia]

The crescendo of the piano in the plaza was beautiful and Belle lost herself in the music for a moment. Eyes closed and her heart full. She sighed as she got up from her seat on the stone planters- the rims thick enough to sit on. In her leather pouch she had a letter with thick, old-smelling paper. It wasn’t an old letter but everything from her home realm smelled that way. It was the scent of war that lingered even now. When she had gotten the letter she had been happy to open it- not considering the plethora of reasons why her parents would message her (though she assumed it was her mother who would use the old paper, her father would have bought some new stationery in one of the shops in Japan).

The letter had not only been heavy in physical weight but she also thought of it as heavy in mental weight. Indeed, she had opened it and read the letter a few times before pushing it deep in her bag and going out. Not wanting to deal with the emotions that she felt and she considered going to her dearest Allie- but he wouldn’t be able to understand. Not having the proper context of the world and how people functioned. Oh, she knew he would soothe her, and try to be there for her but he wouldn't truly understand… She did not want to bother Master Jung with it either, the kind-hearted man too busy and probably having enough to do with having three lovers that all demanded his attention.

No, there was someone else she wanted to see but ever since the storm they had not spoken. Her brows furrowed as she realised she couldn’t even see him if she wanted to- his living quarters unknown to her. She was stumped.

Putting aside pride the snake pulled out her smartphone and flipped it open, the little frog charm dangling from the device. She hoped he still had his old phone number.

Amphibia

So the penultimate episode of Amphibia happened today and here are some thoughts very much not in order:

Anne throwing down to k-pop is probably the most accurate depiction of a fourteen year old I’ve seen in a while.

The Planters being traumatized by the herons that was horrible.

The Planter family hunting dance MADE BY LEIF

oh yeah Yunan and Olivia are sooo into each other.

I totally thought Grime died.

I totally thought Andrius died too.

The reactions of Anne’s friend and her teacher to Anne having powers was awesome.

The whole thing with Leif’s letter to Andrius was really bittersweet. Like I’ve hated Andrius but seeing how his dad/the core manipulated him so much made me sympathize a little and then I felt bad for him when he started crying because of what Leif wrote.

Yeah I totally thought he was dead it would have been kind of rough if he had been by then.

He redeemed himself a little by urging Anne and Sprig to save Marcy.

I doubt there will be any couples coming out of the Calamity Trio just because the show’s been putting so much emphasis on the three of them needing each other so much.

On that note, when Darcy called Sasha ‘girlfriend’ the tension was through the roof.

When Darcy cracked her neck I almost screamed child do not do that

There was a horrible second where I thought Sasha killed Darcy (and therefore Marcy).

Polly and Frobo are so awesome. I love that Polly is more developed as a character because of him. She’s super smart now in a way that no other frog in Wartwood or probably anywhere is.

Sprig struggling to face the reality that he might have to say goodbye to Anne forever : (

um what the heck is going on with the moon

[melsie-sims]

Kennedy got started by planting some flowers for the bees. They were going to need plenty of wax for candle-making.

"So this is where all the science stuff is gonna happen!" Tavi gestured excitedly at the planter boxes. "Herbalism and whatnot."

Kennedy stared at her.

"What did you say your degrees were in?" she asked.

"Oh, you know... biology... physics... I would've done psychology too but my schedule was just so full, things were getting kind of laggy," Tavi explained. "I finished in half the time it usually takes, so it all feels like such a blur now!"

"Right..." Kennedy replied, certain that her new intern was full of llamapoop. Didn't SimCity do a thorough background check on everyone to make sure they could provide for the new nation?

Huh. Well. Nothing she could do about it now that they were here.

"We're gonna work on completing a collection first," Kennedy went on as if she suspected nothing. "We'll focus more on fossils, but we can try to work on frogs too if we see some around. Bring them back here, and if you get doubles you can sell them for simoleons. Got it?"

"I'm on it, bosslady! Piece of cake!" Tavi grinned.

Amphibia Season 2 Finale “True Colors” Thoughts

SeeOr “holy fuck this cartoon about frogs has emotionally destroyed me.”

Rambles under the cut because you NEED to go in as blind as possible.

• Marcy looks like to have a rough home life, or at least one with communication problems. Especially since she jumped on rather fast to the magic music box. I know emotional highs are powerful, but they only take you so far.

• Anne standing her ground against Sasha was so satisifying to see. She’s really showing off the growth she’s gained from the Planters and the rest of Wartwood, not taking the treatment she’s probably put up with before, even if it wasn’t on the level of political betrayal.

• Loved the teamwork to stop the toads from invading.

• The chills the came from the painting reveal. We knew there was something sketchy with the king, but watching Sasha and Grime discover the hidden truth sent chills. 

• Also can we talk about how their game plan shifted from “take over” to “stop this from occurring” right away? Yeah both of them have their problems (which, btw, Sasha redemption in season 3? Hopefully?), but they still have things they care about.

• Speaking of that, there was something... nice about seeing Sasha not feeling victorious about her conquest. Sure, she’s the type who likes to have power. But even she’s starting to see that maybe she wants something more than just power.

• LOVED THAT SWORD FIGHT SO GOOD.

• Seeing the King finally reveal his true plans hit. Like damn fuck this guy is insane. Not to mention how easily he was ready to sell out Marcy.

• Marcy... oh man. She truly does care about having a group of friends a lot. She really wanted to be together forever and all be free. I’m really curious to see what exactly lead to these strong feelings.

• The way she says she gave Anne everything... she still is looking at everything from an innocent perspective. That everything here in Amphibia is a fun fantasy adventure. Then again, it’s not like she hasn’t exactly gone through events like Anne or Sasha that would challenge that view.

• POLLY GOT LEGS, BABY!!!

• RIP Frobo my beloved

• The King dead-ass dropped Sprig out the window while they were up in the air... Jesus Fuck. That’s cold.

• Anne went Super Saiyen and oh. My. Fucking. God. It was so cool. She’s been through so much not just in the past few hours, but in her whole time in Amphibia. And Sprig (as well as the Planters as a whole) have been such a huge source of support for her. So it makes complete sense the final tipping point for her was watching him fall to his death.

• I. Jesus. They were not joking with that warning in the beginning. • You gotta wonder what was going through the trio’s heads during that moment. Sure things had gotten rough, but nothing on that level.

• Also, try not to think about how Marcy likely realized this wasn’t a fun fantasy adventure and that people could actually get hurt and consequences are real.

• Planters are in the human world! And so is Anne! And all their trauma!

Holy fuck the crew delievered. True Colors is how you do a season finale.

And now we wait for the story to continue.

[crystallhamptonhersheykiss]

Since we have the season 3 intro to Amphibia, I've been thinking of what I'm hoping to see next season

1. Hop Pop becoming friends with Anne's parents. From the intro it looks like Anne's Dad will be a little weary of the Planters at first, (for understandable reasons) just like Hop Pop was of Anne. I can imagine them being forced to work together on something or if they have the same interest and realize they like each others company.

2. Seeing and exploring the human world. I think there's a lot of fun things you can do with the Planters stuck in the human world. I also hope we see them making human friends outside of Anne and her parents.

3. Meeting Sasha and Marcy's families. We know a little bit about Anne's family. All we know about Mary's is that they were planning on moving and we don't know anything about Sasha's family. Are her parents the reason Sasha treats people the way she does? Do either Marcy or Sasha have older or younger siblings?

4. Learning more about Hop Pop and the Planter family. We learned a little bit in family shrub, but if you think about it we really don't know anything about Hop Pop's history. We learned in an ama he may or may not have ever married. And that's really all we know other than his story in the shut in.

I was also Rewatching Marcy at the gates and I wonder if we'll get an in show answer to her comment to Sprig. "Oh I've never seen a frog your color before." The only thing I can think of is in family shrub is that Emma the newt became an honorary Planter. Maybe she married into the family later and had children of her own? That would explain Marcys comment if we don't get an in show explanation for it.

5. More screen time with King Andrais and learning more about his past. People have pointed out that Andrais and his friends represents the three stones, with Andrais having the same gem as Anne which is supposed to represent heart. I'm wondering if Andrais was a lot like Anne when he was younger being the heart of the trio. And something happened that made him become the person he is today. Maybe he was corrupted by "The night." (Creature that was in the basement Andrais was talking too.) And that's why he was so determined to invade other worlds and why his friends stole the calamity box and left him. I like Andrais (I think he's a good villain for the show.) but I think he can be more interesting if there was more to his story then him becoming evil just because his friends left.

I know it's too early to be talking about this, but the season 3 intro has me excited.There's more things I'm hoping to see. But these were the main things that came to mind.

I’m So Baked (says the pie)

A/N: So I’ve been paying more attention to Topazi (mentally) and I realize that I need more shenanigans between her and Klaus..so here we are.

Warnings: some suggestive material

Tag List:  @joz-stankovich, @misskittysmagicportal, @badsext, @super-unpredictable98, @the-freckled-luba, @magic-multicolored-miracle, @ghouls-buddy, @maerenee930, @frogs–are–bitches, @neuroticpuppy, @forenschik, @bisexualnathanyoung, @robert-sheehan, @firstpersonnarrator, @salvador-daley, @lokis-rock-n-roll-chick

“Klaus, what happened to your hand?!” Topazi asked, as her partner walked in, his hand held far away from his body, almost as if it had offended him greatly.

“I was trying to get inside of the house and the patio door shut on my hand. We need to get that fixed at some point.” he said, putting a generous amount of dish soap on his “Hello” hand before putting it under the tap.

“I’ll put it on my list to get to. Do you know when Allison and Claire are supposed to be coming over. I need to make sure I have time to get the flowers done beforehand. And I need to make sure there’s no extra snails in them, like I’ve let slide recently.” she added, getting her tools gathered on the floor of the living room.

“Uh, I think she said around regular dinnertime, 6-7ish.” Klaus replied, and Topazi let out a sigh of relief. That’s plenty of time to construct and reconstruct her design.

  It was a simple bouquet, really. Allison hadn’t asked for a specific type of flowers, but she wanted to get a specific message across. Maternal love and affection. Claire had been through quite a lot, and she wanted to be sure that her kid knew that she loved her very much. Material objects only do so much as well, so Allison planned to write a letter, and just generally try to spend more time with her kid, and be there for her more.

“That’s valid.” T remembered saying, as she picked a few cinquefoils, as well as a few carnations from her collection, looking back at her sketch.

  It reminded her in pieces of a sunflower, actually, how it looked. There wasn’t a darkness in the center, but she chose yellow cinquefoils, and yellow carnations, with regular greenery on the outside, so she’d need to change something up a little. She worked away for some time, and made multiples of the same bouquet, trying different combinations of the flowers.

  In the kitchen, Klaus was looking at a recipe book. He wanted to make Allison one of her favorite desserts, a key-lime pie. He was sure that there were limes somewhere in the house (or if the neighbors have some). There had been multiple occasions where he wished to make a specific dish and lacked a few ingredients. Topazi had mentioned, in passing, of her wishes of having a fruit orchard. That would help with the fruit issue, lest Klaus decide to become a full-time baker. It may not be a huge one, but she wanted to provide for herself. Plus, who doesn’t want to take care of plants?

“Now where is the microblade?” he asked himself as he rumbled through the cabinets, trying to make sure he didn’t let anything drop too loudly.

“I don’t even know if we have one.” Topazi replied, eyes focused on trying to properly tie a ribbon on one of her bouquets.

“Ah, here it is!” Klaus exclaimed, extracting the microblade from between the cheese grater and a plate.

   He finally went into the fridge after a few more minutes of glancing over the ingredient page, and withdrew a few limes from the bottom drawers. Soon enough, Klaus began working on the crust, and took some of his anger out (mostly at the sliding door) pounding the graham crackers to crumbs. A small part of him wanted to taste said crumbs, but then he remembered that it was for his sister, not him. (although her giving him a slice isn’t completely out of the question) He pressed the crumbs into the side of the pie plate, making sure to press from the bottom, going up. He put it in the oven, took note of the time, and got started on the filling.

“T, why do you like flowers so much?” Klaus asked, zesting a lime. He knew the obvious answer, “They’re pretty, and a lot of people like them.” However, he wanted to hear his partner talk, as the sound of the cicadas outside were beginning to annoy him.

“I like them because what’s not to like about them? In a sense. They’re pretty, and were historically used as a means to communicate, when people thought it rude and insensitive to discuss such things in public. Everything about them is made so carefully, down to how they look microscopically. Even though plants themselves aren’t sentient, they still live, and have their own systems to maintain, and how they work. If one was to extract a piece of DNA from a sunflower, specifically one that gives it its color, our perception would be completely different of it.” she stops for a moment to collect her thoughts.

“It’s also how people work, too. I like flowers because they’re easy to maintain, if you know what you’re doing, and don’t forget they exist, or run out of energy. And they’re so nice to look at. You’ve seen me stop in parks to just admire how flowers are placed in the mulch, or soil. They planters may have had the littlest idea of how I would view them, even down to what order they put them in, but they’re there. I find it so worth it to just pause for a moment, and to think, and indulge in the true meaning of something, even if it wasn’t meant to be. That’s why I like flowers. It’s completely fine to just see the surface when someone gets you flowers “Ah, they got me something pretty, and thought of me to give me this. It’s a meaningful gift.” But I want to pick apart every part of it. Because there’s so much more to so many things than what you see.” she responds, and jumps when she looks up to see Klaus leaning over the kitchen island, his face in his hands.

  His hands have small bits of pulp on them, and the “Kiss the Cook” apron that he wears has abstract juice drippage on it.

“I fuckin’ love you T.” Klaus whispers, and bends over to capture her lips in a gentle kiss, and he feels her smile into it. Her hands carefully come to wrap around his neck, making sure not to get any of the stem juice in his hair.

“Love you too.” she whispers back, pulling away “Your crust smells just a smidge burnt (pronounced buent), by the way.” she says, picking up her phone to refresh her memory of other flower requests. A small look of panic passes across his face before he pushes himself off of the counter, practically ripping the oven door off to check on his crust.

  It, fortunately enough, wasn’t too terribly damaged. It wasn’t too crisp, or burnt. He set it on the stove to rest for a moment, and he grabbed the yogurt from the fridge, and sweetened condensed milk from the pantry. He poured the juice, zest, yogurt, and sweetened condensed milk into a bowl, and whisked to combine.

“I never thought I would be so turned on by a man cooking, and the pie isn’t even for me.” T admitted, looking at the way Klaus’ arms flexed while he continued to mix the ingredients together.

“Oh, is that right. I’ll be cooking a lot more then, if your response is openly admitting your horniness to my non-conformity to gender roles.” he said casually, blowing a stray hair out of his face.

 Topazi looked up, and stared Klaus straight in the face, and put a finger up, opening her mouth, only to close it, and put her finger down.

“I’m not sharing my thoughts with a malewife like you.” she uttered, shaking her head in mock disgust.

“And this malewife puts it down every evening for you, willingly that is, and this is how I’m treated, ugh, the gumption.” he mutters, putting a hand to his chest, feigning disgust.

  Topazi and Klaus look at each other once more before breaking out in laughter, urging Minnie, who was sitting on the floor, to wake up from her nap. Klaus snorted, hand gripping the counter. Topazi had to put her head down to prevent any excess spittle from getting on her flowers. Once they caught their collective breaths, Klaus poured the filling into the crust, and put it into the oven to bake. He washed the dishes that he had, and dried the bowl, due to needing it for the topping.

“Okay, good, I just need to write these cards, then I’ll be done with this.” T said, grabbing them, and grabbed a permanent marker.

“These look really good T!” Klaus exclaimed, his eyes shining with glee.

“Thank you love.” she said, dragging a hand across her face. She stood up to stretch, and her back cracked loudly, mildly surprising her. She walked over to Klaus and wrapped her hands around his waist, her head resting on his back.

“Every time you put your arms around my waist like that, I swear I gain 10 more years of life.” he said, wiping his hands on his apron. She felt the vibrations of his speech on her face, and she took a deep breath before responding.

“I wonder what happens when I hug you then.” T said, walking away to put the flowers in their designated “T’s flowers, do not touch nor smell.” place in the fridge.

“I’m so smart, I know.” he retorted, pouring the heavy cream into a bowl, along with a few tablespoons of confectioners’ sugar. T jumped at the sound, and shook it off. 

  She had mentally took note of the time Klaus put the pie in, and took an oven mitt off of the hook, (patterned with tiny cookies on it) The top looked set enough, and she set it to rest on the counter. She turned the oven off, and watched as Klaus finished whipping the topping, holding it upside down to check if it was ready. It didn’t fall on his head, so he put plastic wrap over it, and looked outside for a short moment, looking up the tree in the front yard. 

  He took a breath, and thought for a second. Maybe a bit too long. His mind fluttered back to what it took for him to be where he was. How much it physically took out of him, his siblings, hell, even the timeline for him to be able to have a peaceful life (for the most part) and a loving partner. A tear slipped down his face, and he thought of how silent the ghost had been recently. He still had his powers, but the ghosts seemed to respect his current want for peace. And he loved that. He would float around the house if his feet were tired, and sometimes even do a side gig of being a medium if he felt inclined to. However, something about knowing that he couldn’t physically see Ben anymore, (his Ben, he thought, now with his newest collection of siblings, with a limited edition Sparrow Ben). He still even missed the cult, even with its downsides. He never got the right type of parental love, or familial love. At times, he doubted his siblings’ love for him, even though they’d made it pretty obvious that they’d be there for him, lest he need it.

  “Hey, Klaus, the- are you alright?” Topazi asks. She had been calling a few clients back from her home office, telling them that their bouquets had been completed. She got a random craving for cookies, and planned to go to the kitchen to make them, but she found Klaus in tears, hand covering his mouth. He hadn’t even noticed her there.

“Yeah, yeah I’m fine. I was just thinking too much.” he explained, letting her wipe the tears from his face.

“You sure?” she asked, and he nodded before taking a deep breath, and releasing it. “I was just coming in here to A. make some cookies, and B. tell you that the pie is good and cooled, and it’s time for it to be topped.” she said, rubbing his back gently.

“Okay. Thank you T.” he responded, gathering the willpower to put the whipped cream on the pie, and adding small lime slices and spare zest on top. He smiled at the completed job, and put it in the fridge to finish chilling.

“Go take a nap darling. You’ve been on your feet for a while, and you look tired. I’ll let you know when Allison is here. Or at least 5 minutes before.” she whispered, kissing Klaus’ cheek. She looked at him for a moment more, and cupped his cheek with her hand. The light scruff that covered the bottom of his chin tickled her hand, and she had the urge to scratch her palm. She however, resisted said urge, and took her hand away. Klaus smiled at her once more, and trotted up the stairs, with Minnie in tow behind him. Topazi went back to the kitchen and gathered her ingredients. She spun some vinyl as background music, and got to work on her cookies.

  A couple hours pass, and Topazi is drying the last cookie sheet she used for her cookies, putting it back in its rightful spot. She stretched again, and checked her phone, seeing that Allison had texted her a few seconds go, saying that she was on the way, which gave her about 30 minutes to get Klaus awake. She headed up the stairs, and ended their bedroom, where Klaus was sprawled across the sheets Minnie resting on his pillow. T gently shook him awake with one hand, and giving chin scratches to Minnie with the other.

“Come on, it’s time to get up Klausie.” she mutters, watching as her partner came to slowly, more of his hair having escaped from its confinements.

“Hmmm, I’ll be more up in a bit. You smell good, hon.” he whispered, rubbing his eyes.

 The sun was shining in his face, and although it may have been mildly uncomfortable to wake up to, he looked absolutely stunning in it. His hair seemed to glow, and his skin, albeit a little pale, seemed to reflect every bit of sun that hit it. His eyes though, seemed to be pools of emerald and gold. Topazi admired him from afar, and she ignored the strong urge to climb into bed with him and bask in the sunlight together.

“You’re staring love.” Klaus says, leaning on his arm in bed, petting Minnie, who was beginning to wake up as well. She meowed gently, and purred at his touch.

“Oh, hush. Like you haven’t stared at me in the sun before.”

“.....You got me there.”

“Yeah, mhm.” Topazi said, jokingly side-eyeing Klaus.

“Come here mama.” Klaus teases, pulling T’s arm towards him. She falls into Klaus’ arms, her head resting right below his. He bends down and kisses her lips, breaking away, before Topazi reciprocates the gesture, taking a small handful of Klaus’ hair in her fingers. Klaus smiles, and chuckles, letting his mouth fall to her neck. He nuzzles into it, and they sit there for several minutes, before coming to a realization.

“Oh shit, I forgot that Allison and Claire are coming over.” T said. “I’ve got to get the cookies in the jar...and I need to fix the bed too.”

“Ah, calm down. It’s fine. She’s not going to come up here and see where we engage in sinful activities, is she? No. However, I would love to join you in the cookie jarring.” Klaus mutters, smiling at her.

“Fine, you can help. But so help me god if I find even a crumb on the freshly swept floor.” Topazi said, closing the bedroom door behind her.

  T worked quickly to get the cookies together, and Klaus took a very short shower, as he knew that it would help wake him up, and he could go back to bed without having to worry about showering again. The doorbell sounded, and Topazi almost slipped trying to get to the door. She checked herself in the mirror once more before letting her niece and sister in law into the house.

“Hey Allison! And little miss Claire.” Topazi said, giving the respective people their own hugs.

“How’ve you been T?” Allison asked as she was welcomed in, shoes taken off at the door. She was also carrying a dish of some sort, covered in Aluminum Foil.

“I’ve been good. The business has been going well, and I’m thinking of making an orchard.” T replies, leading them both to the living room. “Let me get that for you.”

“That’s good. Claire’s been begging me to let her go visit the shop, but it’s always been at a bad time. Oh, thank you! I brought dinner as a bit of a treat.”

“It’s much appreciated. I like seeing you both, and having you two visit would never be a hassle.” she replies, petting JJ, the other cat, who just so happened to be waiting for attention.

“IS THAT MY SISTER AND MY FAVORITE NIECE?” Klaus yelled from the top of the stairs, quickly running down them to give his sibling a hug.

“Uncle Klaus!” Claire exclaimed, giving said uncle a very big hug around his middle, only to be picked up.

“How’ve you been, Allison, smaller Allison?” he asked, setting his niece back on the couch before taking the place next to his partner.

“We’ve been good.” Allison says. “We’ve been doing really good.” 

  The four of them sit and converse for a while, and eventually dinnertime comes around, signaled by Klaus’ stomach growling loudly. Allison had brought a very large amount of lasagna, and Topazi immediately dug in, which shocked Klaus, but he’d bring the cause up at a later time. Claire did, however, get a pre-dinner cookie (Topazi’s request because “That’s how you teach kids that good things come to people who deserve them.”)

“So, I do so happen to have a bit of a surprise for the both of you.” Klaus says, standing up and opening the fridge.

“Ooh, what is it?” Allison asks excitedly, and Claire matches her mother’s expression.

  Klaus pulls out the pie, and T moves to gently give Claire her bouquet, asking her to hold it a specific way as to not jostle the flowers, or change the position of the ribbon.

“That’s so pretty, T! Oh my gosh, I need to ask you to make more things for me, I swear I’ll pay you in whatever you want.” Allison exclaims, looking at the bouquet, leaning forward to smell some of the flowers.

“Thank you! The meanings of the flowers, and ribbon placement are on the card. Also your brother made a whole pie...by himself......we need to eat it before he does.” she teases, sticking a pointed thumb back at her partner, who already had a knife out to cut said pie.

“Klaus, it’s my favorite! Thank you so much.” Allison says, taking another bite of the pie.

“This is really good Uncle Klaus.” Claire states, looking across the island at him.

“Why danke. It was made with love. Both the pie and the bouquet, actually.” he said, kissing T on the cheek. She smiled against him, and took a piece of the pie for herself, trying to resist eating the rest of the pie it all of its entirety.

  The night came to an end, and Allison and Claire said their respective goodbyes, and drove off. T and Klaus lay in bed that night, with a book and knitting needles in hand, respectively. Klaus feels a weight against his shoulder, and Topazi had fallen asleep, small breaths escaping her lips. He put a marker in her book, and took note of note of where he stopped in his stitches. It took him some more time to get to sleep that night, probably due to his earlier nap, but he got to sleep, so peacefully. Something he’d wished for many a day, and now it seemed that he was finally getting it answered.

Key Lime Pie

[musicallygt]

I was thinking of an AU of Amphibia that’s mostly the same except when they arrive on earth it turns out that Anne and the planters return at the same size as a normal frog on earth. So Anne has to live with her family and figure out how to get back to Amphibia but now she’s tiny.

OH I REALLY LIKE THIS. MR AND MRS BOONCHUY WOULD BE EVEN MORE OVERPROTECTIVE OF THEIR DAUGHTER WITH THIS
