Not A Christmas Story (05x09) Outfit 3

[taylorswiftstyle]

Out and about | London, England | August 12, 2024

Vivienne Westwood ‘Cut Off Jacket’ - $1,395.00 Vivienne Westwood ‘Wizard Frill Shirt’ - $760.00 Vivienne Westwood ‘Cut Off Skirt’ - $960.00 Vivienne Westwood 'Tuesday Mini Bag' $690.00 Sézane ‘Georgia High Mary Janes in Pistachio’ - $230.00

This marks a second time Taylor has made a direct pull from the VW FW 2024 lookbook. Like her previous look, shared by Brittany Mahomes when they were in Amsterdam, Taylor sought to diverge from the designer’s styling through her choice in footwear. The VW team styled this look with thigh-high red socks and tonal red platforms. Taylor instead opted for a Christmas Clueless-meets-Austin Powers aesthetic with crisp white socks and olive mary jane heels that bring out the green tones in her tartan set. I think the choice works to create a cohesive colour palette and makes more sense for the warmer weather in London. And also greeeeeeeeeeeen.

I personally love seeing the difference from in how a garment ultimately gets worn as a street style look it demonstrates an individual’s POV. The power of styling is everything! While a copy + paste of a campaign look is fun to see (esp for the designer kick of it all!), I think it’s most fun when someone brings that ‘styling’ element to a look and can depart dramatically from the designer’s original vision to give us their take on an outfit. I actually could imagine Taylor keeping the socks but opting in for those mary jane pumps and ditching the fussy shirt underneath for a simple tee or tank. If this were taking place in cooler temps I could also imagine a turtleneck and tights with heeled booties.

Taken in isolation, this is a great shoulder season look that, while not my personal taste, bridges the short hemlines and cute heels of summer with an autumnal palette and layering via the frilly white shirt. It also continues the connection between TTPD and VW. A signature of this era so far has been the corseted look, something that VW played a huge role in modernizing and integrating into their brand house codes.Taylor has worn many VW pieces for this era including while performing songs from TTPD on the Eras Tour.

This is Taylor’s first physical appearance since her trio of shows in Vienna, Austria were cancelled due to planned threats of a terrorist attack. Taylor has not commented thus far on these cancellations. According to reports, this appearance in London was following a party for Eras Tour staff ahead of her final string of shows at Wembley which conclude the European leg of this tour.

These are my two Tf2 AUs Modern AU, and Dark Fortress

The Modern AU is a bit old and I haven’t done anything to the story in a while but I suppose I will share it anyways. (I am NOT sharing the first drawing I did of them in the beginning of 2023. Unless it’s highly requested but it’s pretty bad and it’s crazy how much I improved in about a year)

Dell(engineer): he’s a mechanic and tool maker. Dell is a Texan man who is a kind hearted man. He spends his spare time hanging out with a few of his buds and having a cool beer or two, not enough to get drunk however just a little tipsy. He likes sitting in his truck and listening to country music on the radio. He lives with Jude and helps him through his breakdowns. He has deeper feelings for Jude however keeps silent as to not possibly ruining things between them despite Jude having the same hidden feelings.

Dell wears a plain red collar necked shirt, blue jeans, brown belt and brown boots. He often wears his cowboy hat that he loves despite its rougher edges and wear. He wears his reddish colored safety goggles a lot considering he forgets to take them off most of the time. He has tan skin. He has dirty blonde body and facial hair that he keeps decently groomed. He has short blonde hair that is usually slightly greasy due to sweat however it’s soft anyway. He has gray blue eyes

Jude(pyro): he is amab but identifies himself as genderfluid. Jude is Italian who has some physical disabilities due to his past trauma involving a house fire however he uses fire to keep himself calm so he usually carries a lighter at all times unless it’s not aloud then he tries to find other things to keep himself calm. He is very sweet and caring but can be a little over protective. Jude lives with Dell and is very close with him. His emotions towards Dell can sometimes make him overwhelmed so he tries to separate himself from Dell so as to not cause anything awkward.

The au is in a modern day society. The nine men live in a town called fortwell. Dell and Jude met in high school. Dell met Theo in college where Jane doe now works. Jeremy was supposed to go to college there but decided not to because “it was a waste of time” though it probably would have put him in a better situation than now. Jeremy didn’t have a good state of mind when he should have been starting college due to his mom passing away. Theo tried not to let her death get to him resulting in going to the bar often. Theo became pretty good friends with Tavish who comforted him when Theo would vent to him. Theo learned of Tavish’s bad habit of drinking however he didn’t judge since Tavish listened to him vent. Once Theo got back in a good head space he reunited with his college friend Dell. Dell told him about the college and how it was way better than when Theo and Dell met there. Dell met Jeremy soon after Theo and him reunited and talked him into going to college to try to get a better job if not better life. Jeremy decided to join ROTC to try to be a better son and make his mama proud if she was still watching. Jane pushed Jeremy to work hard which pissed him off but he continued anyway. After a while Jeremy started to give up. He ended up cursing out Jane. It wasn’t anything new from what he’d heard from other students so he kept a stern voice and talked Jeremy through his outburst soon finding out about his mothers death and the reason why he decided to come to college. Jane realized Jeremy wasn’t mad he was just in pain. Jane shared his experience of pain from his years of being in the military. Jeremy was surprised by the way Jane showed sympathy for him. Jeremy thought he was just an asshole but he found out Jane just showed tough love to help his students become tougher. Jeremy didn’t give up after talking with Jane instead he became more confident about continuing college. Jane was glad to have changed Jeremy’s point of view and happy to see him work hard.

Theo visited the bar and brought Dell with him though Dell wasn’t really the type to drink besides a beer every here and there. Dell met Tavish and had a few drinks with Theo and talked with Tavish as well. Theo accidentally bumped into the wrong guy at the bar. The guy caught an attitude with Theo when he tried to apologize resulting in a heated argument. Dell didn’t like this. He usually wasn’t the type to fight but he was a bit buzzed from the alcohol and he stepped in. He was not only shorter than Theo but definitely shorter than the guy. He threw the first punch which the guy didn’t like at all causing him to slam Dell on the ground and break his arm. Tavish noticed the ruckus and called the police as soon as he saw Dell get slammed and his arm broken. Theo slipped out his switchblade and slit the guy’s throat when he wasn’t looking. Nobody noticed how the guy disappeared due to all eyes focused on Dell being taken to hospital once the police and ambulance came. Tavish noticed however he said nothing. Tavish didn’t like that guy anyway since this wasn’t the first time he had caused problems in the bar. Theo somehow discarded the body without anyone but Tavish noticing but Tavish wasn’t one to run his mouth unlike his coworkers who luckily weren’t working that night. The bar got closed for the night and Tavish went to the hospital to sit with Dell. Theo went to sit with Tavish and Dell soon after telling Jeremy he wasn’t going to get back to the house that night. Dell had to have surgery to put his bones back in place. His doctor happened to be one of Tavish’s high school classmates and sort of friend. His name was Ludwig and he happened to notice Tavish even without one of his eyes. He was surprised that Tavish wasn’t the one who needed surgery due to all the trouble Tavish used to get into when they went to high school but then again he figured Tavish had matured more as an adult. After the surgery was successful Ludwig had reintroduced himself to Tavish. It took a minute but Tavish recognized Ludwig. He was slightly embarrassed when Theo heard how Tavish used to misbehave in high school but luckily Theo didn’t mind. Ludwig was happy to see him again and glad that he wasn’t upset at the way Ludwig described younger Tavish. Then again the way Tavish described how he knew him wasn’t exactly the best either. Ludwig had been quite shy and nerdy when he was younger but he wasn’t really that known either. Ludwig found out Tavish worked at a bar where Ludwig’s best friend Mikhail went to every now and then. Jude came to the hospital asking about Dell. He was very confused to see other people there and he was also nervous due to not really being social since he was bullied as a kid due to his burn scars all over his face and body. The others didn’t know about Jude until Dell came out of the room with a cast on his arm to let his arm heal properly. Dell explained how he met Jude to Tavish and Theo then he explained to Jude how he met them. Jude was still a little nervous from being socially awkward but Theo and Tavish told him that they didn’t mind him being there. Tavish told Dell how he knew Ludwig since he was still standing there reminding Ludwig that he still had a job to do and he excused himself after trading numbers with Tavish so they could stay in contact. Dell went back to the house with Jude so he could help Dell until he recovered. Later Ludwig went to the bar with Mikhail to see Tavish and talk and hang out with his friend and let them get to know each other.

Mick met Theo again after he found a property next to Theo and Jeremy’s houses. For a good while he didn’t like Theo due to thinking he was one of those guys who was full of himself. Theo didn’t know how to feel about his somewhat coworker living next to them. Jeremy made up dumb ideas that he was some weirdo who was a homeless guy that stole someone’s camper or something dumb like that. Obviously Theo didn’t believe his son. He decided to go talk to Mick. When he walked up to the camper and knocked on the door Mick opened the door before Theo could even say anything Mick closed the door in his face. He said something like “if you’re gonna say something about my camper or something like that just leave” Theo didn’t like that but he knew he wasn’t gonna say anything like that anyway he just told him he was just gonna talk to him again and clear up some possible misunderstanding. Mick already knew who he was or so he thought so. Mick walked out with his arms crossed. He looked at the perfectly dressed man waiting for him to say something. Theo told him his real name and asked about his name. Mick with a slight attitude told his name. Theo offered him a drink at the bar. Mick wasn’t exactly against the idea so he accepted though he was still cautious of the man. He didn’t really like him until they chatted more at the bar. Mick soon grew to realize that Theo wasn’t exactly what he thought. They soon started getting along better. Theo and Mick started talking more often. Not too long after Theo introduced Mick to the other guys. They started bonding more and Mick became less introverted.

I don’t have much Information on the Dark Fortress AU since it was mostly made for fun but basically this takes place in a different universe where Dr. Ludwig (aka medic) is a mad scientist who’s done all these crazy experiments for the soul purpose of being interesting.

Here’s the list of characters and what monster they are

Scout: werewolf

Soldier: Gargoyle

Pyro: fire spirit/phoenix

Demoman: cyclops

Heavy: mothman

Engineer: Cyborg

Medic: mad scientist

Sniper: Sasquatch

Spy: vampire

(Pyro is haunting Dr. Ludwig for his actions. Dell used to be Dr. Ludwig’s assistant however after Dell refused to be apart of another one of his experiments Dr. Ludwig turned him into a experiment by using his own machinery again him)

Romance 1 of the 6 Ro's.

Leon (M)

Leon is a kind heart, receiving you with open arms from the very first second. He has a calm temper and a strong brain. His amicable and strategic qualities make him the leader of the mercenary group. But it's visible that something dark lurks in his gentle eyes.

He's very tall (1,93 cm (6′ 4″)) and athletic, with tan skin and a scar on his lip. His black hair is cut short, and his violet eyes reflect perfectly his calm and serene character.

He wears a light brown shirt, black pants, and dark brown boots.

He fights with a simple silver shield.

Iara (F) 

Iara is the second in charge. Her strategic and cold demeanor is enough to compensate for Leon's calm procedure, giving the group an excellent balance. She's quiet and observant but has a soft spot and cares for her companions.

She's tall (1,80 cm (5′ 11″)) and has a lean but athletic build. She keeps her curly red hair in a high ponytail. Her golden accessories shine in contrast with her pale skin. She has several scars, but one is more perceptible, crossing her eye, a wound that caused one of her turquoise eyes to be completely pale white.

She wears lightweight golden armor with soft beige fur on her shoulders.

Her golden and bluish-green accessories adorn her neck, ears, and wrist.

She fights with a black and gold whip.

Matheus (M)

Matheus is a charismatic individual. He's clever and very fond of puns and jokes. The young man has quite the ability to read people and has been trying to help you understand your past. As friendly as he is, he seems to have trouble letting people get closer to him.

He's average (1,78 m (5′ 10″)) and lean, with umber skin. His soft brown curls are cut short, and his olive eyes are full of compassion and comprehension.

He wears glasses and a simple sleeveless white shirt combined with baggy pants.

He fights with a silver crossbow with a crow symbol engraved on it.

Dante (M)

Dante is in charge of the magic rituals and enchants. He's a grumpy and hotheaded kind of person. Being a fire Elementalist, he can summon fire, but he's not immune to it, having an arm covered in a burn scar. 

He tends to be reserved and doesn't like being touched by strangers.

He's average (1,75 m (5′ 9″)) and chubby, with fair skin. His chin-length hair is golden blonde, and his eyes are as red as the flames he summons.

He wears a sleeveless shirt with a turtleneck and black pants. He wears in his right ear two black earrings.

He fights with a saw-toothed silver sword.

Siena (F)

Siena is a cunning woman, always having the right words to escape the most challenging situations. She's very fond of Matheus, and just like her friend, she loves making jokes and a good fight.

She's short (1,57 m (5′ 2″)) and robust, with olive skin. She has raven long hair that matches her dark eyes. 

She wears a long black shirt and greenish baggy pants.

She fights with greenish and silver gauntlets.

Levi (NB)

Levi is cold and seems to hate you for what you are. They are sarcastic and straightforward. They tend to avoid you, but even with their cold distance they seem interested at you. Maybe something in you draws them.

They're average (1,70m (5′ 7″)) and athletic, with light brown skin. Their shoulder-length black hair is partially tied in a short ponytail. Their gray eyes seem cold when they look at you. Will they grow warmer with time?

They wear a sleeveless gray shirt and leather pants. And a brown leather arm bracelet.

They fight with silver daggers.

Ok, honestly curious because everyone has different headcanons about Zim’s fashion sense.

What style does he lean towards?

What about Voss?

Do the two ever do matching fits for fun or when they go out?

SORRY I HAVENT ANSWERED THIS SOONER I WAS PLANNING ON DRAWING IT OUT BUT DIDNT GET THE CHANCE. PREPARE FOR A LONG POST!!!! WITH ZERO CAPITALIZATION OR PROPER GRAMMAR for zim it really depends on his mood and the occasion. he won't put effort in an outfit if he's not feeling it. he'll just wear athletic-type spandex bodysuits, usually black. they're quick, seamless, and comfortable. but if he IS feeling fun and explorative, he has a few styles he likes! it's invader zim after all, a staple in emo and scene culture, so i felt that it would be fitting that zim would really lean emo in his style. but not always!!!! the medium-length black wig is perfect because it goes with everything! i like to think he likes loose-fitting clothes, because they're comfortable. loose long sleeved shirts, layers, leg warmers/stockings, thigh-high or knee-high boots, he LOVES. it gets cold in detroit, and he's cold-blooded, he needs layers!!!! (i usually use pinterest to find inspiration for outfits, so all of these images are from pinterest)

stuff like this! very flowy and twee he will always wear shoes that enhance height in some way, no matter what. these almost always include platforms or heels. his boots? platform. his uggs? platform. EVERYTHING IS PLATFORMED because he wants to feel tall in terms of colors? for basics, he'll choose black over white most of the time. his favorite color is purple, and he looks really good in pink/red/magenta, so he'll always gravitate towards those colors. he usually avoids green clothes because they clash with his skin-tone. he also looks really nice in yellow or blue but it depends on the shade! here are some examples of fits i think he would like. avril lavigne's wardrobe is zim's dream wardrobe honestly

i think zim's fashion sense is a weird blend of emo, scene, visual kei, rokku-gyaru, other j-fashion staples, and then grunge, 2000s coquette, twee, and other more "dainty" styles. he just wears what he likes. that's his fashion philosophy. if he likes it, he'll wear it. he doesn't care for human constructs of gender or public perception. he KNOWS he's beautiful and he's gonna flaunt it. it's one of the ways zim engages with "earth culture" once he officially defects from the irken empire. now VOSS is a little simpler. he's a nomad, and values comfort in his clothing. like zim, he'll usually lounge around in athletic wear. but, he is also a romantic. he usually likes wearing tailored blazers or coats, sweaters, or turtlenecks. (the turtlenecks help because zim likes to bite. who said that) he likes muted, timeless colors like navy, charcoal, and earth tones, paired with softer, romantic hues like dusty rose, deep burgundy, or soft lavender. but he's usually seen wearing his standard dark olive-green blazer. zim and voss haven't figured out the whole "matching outfit" thing, having to wear their uniforms 24/7 kinda killed the novelty/cuteness of it. but occasionally they do coordinate! if voss is wearing muted earth tones, zim will wear muted earth tones. if voss is wearing black, zim will wear black. conversely, if zim's feeling dainty, voss will wear something dainty (like a blouse with lace accents, or somethin)

i LOVE talking about characters and fashion so this was super fun! im gonna go to bed now. let me know what y'all think!!

So I've done a few "Whiskey Old Fashioned Sour" doodles a few times (will do more in future moat likely because this au lives in my head rent free) and it's a fun Malevolent AU by @bluejayblueskies Featuring some John chibis, and Arthur in an aro sweater, and them on a date from the fic 🥰

IDs under cut

[ID: The first image is a chibi drawing of John Doe. John Doe is depicted with olive skin with some acne scars, dark black hair pulled into a bun, decorated with various tattoos and piercings, and has bright blue eyes. He has a serious look despite being relaxed, his head tilted to the side. John holds a mixer in his right hand and a bottle of alcohol in the left. He has a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, black pants and shoes, and he has an apron on with a "Frost" logo on for his bar.

The second drawing is of Arthur Lester from "Whiskey Old Fashioned Sour". Arthur has light skin with tons of freckles, soft brown eyes, curly red hair that is streaked with grays, and angular features. He also wears black framed glasses and a black turtleneck sweater with jeans, the pattern and colors on the sweater an abstract aro flag. He stands in front of a creme mottled background, one hand in his pocket and the other on his shoulder in a mostly relaxed gesture.

The third image is a colored chibi drawing of Arthur and John from Whiskey. They're visiting the bourbon festival in chapter 6 og Whiskey. Arthur is a light skinned man with lots of freckles and dark red curly hair. He has glasses and brown eyes, and is wearing a dark green shirt with a bag slung over his shoulder. He is holding a notepad and pointing at it. John stands next to him with an uncomfortable look of embarrassment on his face. He has long black hair pulled into a bun, blue eyes, acne scars, an arrangement of tattoos and piercings, and is blushing profusely. John is wearing a blue tank top with a jean jacket slung over his right arm. The artist logo is next to Johns arm in the corner. /END ID]

Haven't done much fanart this year, but I WAS able to do RQBB again! And I got to draw so much Grizzop and gobbos for @emwoman25's wonderful "Weapons Drawn". I'll reblog with the link to the fic in a moment! And you HAVE to read it to find out why Hamid is a baby.

This is part of @pilesofnonsense 2023 Rusty Quill Big Bang and as always it's been an absolutely joy participating.

Image IDs under the cut!

Image 1: A black and white watercolour and ink image of Grizzop drik acht Amsterdam, a goblin. He has large eyes and ears and is wearing a coat. He also wears a tactical-style baby carrier, in which he carries halfling Hamid Saleh Haroun al Tahan, who is a baby. Hamid has curly dark hair, chubby cheeks, and is chewing on the wing of a stuffed dragon.

Image 2: A colour watercolour and ink image of a family picnic. From left to right we see Kriz, Plik, Izzo, Grizzop, Hamid, Vesseek, Esk, Frax and Grat. All are goblins except Hamid, who is a baby halfling. Esk is also a baby. Hamid is wearing green pyjamas, Esk is wearing purple pyjamas. The younger goblins are all clad in various colours and styles. Izzo wears a yellow dress, Grat wears a brown tunic and olive hose. She carries a plate of fruit to the red picnic blanket everyone is sitting on. The babies are sitting on Hamid's purple cloak, which also holds a plate of cinnamon buns. Hamid and Esk are playing with a red and blue ball; Hamid has his arms raised in the air. There is a tree and blue sky in the background, along with a low stone wall and some shrubs. There is grass on the ground.

Image 3: A black and white watercolour and ink image of a side-hug between Hamid Saleh Haroun al Tahan and Grizzop drik acht Amsterdam. Hamid, on the left, is an adult halfling with pointy ears and dark curly hair. He wears an immaculate suit. Grizzop, on the right, has his arm around Hamid's shoulder and wears his breastplate, a turtleneck, a coat, and spaulders on his shoulders. He is a goblin with large ears and rings in his ears. His face is reminiscent of a sphinx cat.

Okay, new fun post/theory: this is how Daniel looked when he and Maura met, and why his outfit here looks so similar to the way he's dressed in the Kerberos sim (olive green mock turtleneck and black jacket with a big popped collar).

[abigaillinc21]

Ghostfriends if they had Super Modes. The armour was inspired by the Calamity Trio from Amphibia. Hope you like it! Also let me know whose super form design you like best!

Also here’s a little bit of context on the armour designs:

Since they’re the group “Ghost Friends” they have ghost symbols all over their outfits; the ghost-shaped gems on their armour, belts (in Molly and Ollie’s case) and shoes, the ectoplasm pattern on their capes (for Molly’s case, her outer skirt piece; for Ollie’s, on his shirt sleeves), Molly’s yellow skirt piece is supposed to resemble that of a ghost’s tail (another reference to how she became on and how she manages to befriend a few ghosts, the first being Scratch), the pattern on Ollie’s shoulder guards resemble a ghost tail and the rim of his chestplate also resembles a ghost tail.

Libby’s main colour is sea green as seen with her turtleneck sweater. The spikes on her armour is a reference to the episode, “Carbon Zero Heroes”, while Molly and Ollie are trying to live out a carbon-free lifestyle, Libby prepares herself (and Scratch) for the inevitable zombie apocalypse. One of her methods of protection is putting spikes on almost everything. Her favourite animal is a turtle and her shoulder guards and her shirt resemble a turtle shell.

Molly’s main colour is hot pink as seen with her skirt and shoes. Her hair is put into a fiery ponytail since she can be very energetic at times. There are yellow and orange accents on her outfit, which references her astral ghost form (she’s a yellow-orange colour).

Oliver’s (or Ollie’s) main colour is cobalt blue as seen with his jacket. The collar on his chestplate is supposed to resemble that of a collar found on a jacket (I tried). Unlike Molly or Libby, Ollie’s clothing in this outfit has dark colours, giving the whole “Dark is not Evil” trope since before he was a ghost hunter who hunted down all ghosts (good and bad) before realizing that not all ghosts are evil and befriended a few (hence the trope).

"Why would they let you use your phone during a robbery, Nona?"

"Stop getting all wrapped up in the little details. The important thing is that you check what I sent."

"Alright, alright, let's see... huh. A personality test? Aren't those a pseudoscience?"

"What a lame thing to say. Just take it already. I'll tell you what Our-Lord-And-Savior-The-Exalted-One got if you do. Woah, geez, calm down, at least let it load!"

Lear is considered by his co-workers to be a diligent yet reserved worker. He rarely calls out sick, never slacks off, and can get along with anyone. Most sigh in relief when they're put on the same shift as him. He wordlessly carries out tasks without anyone's prompting. Despite his solid reputation at the LOTUS-EATER, not much is known about him. He doesn't accept invitations to social outings or seek the companionship of others. These requests are turned down with a soft smile and apologetic look, which makes harboring any ill-will toward him difficult.

In his heart, he can't bring himself to enjoy the freedoms deprived from the one he treasures most. He swore he'd remain by the side of a girl who abruptly stumbled into his melancholic life. This unruly girl would go on to bring excitement and adventure wherever she went. Those boring cycles spent on his lonesome were no more. Her happiness became his, a fact that's never changed. He contents himself on caring for those who he's come to be close to.

"A place where anyone can enter, but few can leave."

This would best describe Arc, the purposefully forgotten quadrant of Perianth II. Most who are born here never get to see light, artificial or otherwise. Although Nymphalian's have excellent night vision, Nona was never able to accept navigating a world of darkness. She joined a group of likeminded folk who supposedly sought to better the conditions in Arc. For many years, she sacrificed plenty to realize this dream. After overhearing two of the most prominent leaders squabble over the most insignificant things, she realized the futility of relying on others for a better future.

There had been talks of Nona infiltrating the LOTUS-EATER, as she exhibited the traits necessary for an Arbiter's field of work. Her application for Thelx citizenship was readily accepted. Instead of carrying out her group's wishes, she decided to live for herself. Though Nona was initially standoffish toward her fellow LOTUS-EATER co-workers, she soon formed a bond with her mentor, [First] Phaeales and the bartender Lear.

Apple Pickin'

~Smoker x (OC) Beatrice Snippet~

(Note: Vermouth is the owner of the pub Beatrice works at and is a father figure to her ;3 also reference of Smoker's outfit form the One Piece Grand Collection thanks to One Piece Grand Collection for archiving this photo because oof i love this outfit) Also pretty much wrote this and didn't look back so sorry if there is a bit of erros >>

A bear claw reached up and plucked an apple from the branch before it was placed in a wicker basket. A soft song came from the woman as she picked apples one by one. "Beatrice! You have company!" Vermouth called from the farm house yards away. Beatrice felt her lips twitch into a smile before she peaked through the large boughs of the apple tree in time to see her visitor: Vice Admiral Smoke, come down the steps of the weathered farm house. Today he wasn't in his marine attire perhaps trying to blend in more wearing a leather jacket, olive green button up with tight jeans. She watched him from her hidden spot before bringing up her legs completely hiding her from view. Her hazel eyes could still see Smoker who now looked confused as he looked from tree to tree. She had to admit-it was a very cute look on him. She suppressed a giggle as she still walked around confused.

"Bea?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Smoker thanked the older gentleman who gestured to the backdoor of the farm. "Beatrice should be out there picking apples-somewhere. I haven't seen her in awhile, but the basket of apples is growing." Vermouth shrugged and gave a tired smile, "That girl doesn't know when to take a break, make sure she gets one, Admiral." He patted Smoker's shoulder causing the Vice Admiral to crack a smile, cigars hanging from his lips.

"Ill try, you know how stubborn she can be." The old man laughed shaking his head,

"Don't I know it. Good luck with her." Vermouth hobbled back into his home leaving Smoker to attempt to find the bear woman hiding in the orchard. The air was crisp, somewhere close by someone was burning leaves. Smoker took in a deep breath, his body feeling at ease. This had started occur since coming to visit Beatrice-he started to feel less uptight. Speaking of which-

"Bea?" Smoker eyebrows furrowing slightly looking from tree to tree, peeking up into the bows, "Bea? Where are you?" He kept looking from left to right until suddenly heard a hush of leaves behind him. He had just turned around and look up when something-someone jumped down from the tree. Smoker let out a yell in surprise as he felt a weight on him, knocking the breath out of him and crushing his bits---a bit. He grunted in pain as he looked up to see Beatrice sat on top of him, a large grin on her face,

"Boo!" She giggled as she took an apple from the basket on her arm, taking a bite out of it smirking. "Good to see you Smoky."

Smoker just laid there, wind knocked out of him, and his nether regions crushed just looked up at her with wide brown eyes and his face burning with a mix of embarrassment and anger, quickly spreading across his face: his cigars had fallen out of his mouth which he held agape. There was Beatrice straddling him as if it was the most normal thing to do, her smoky mousy hair cascading over her chest in waves, hazel eyes full of mischief, and maroon colored lips smiling down at him. She was wearing dark brown turtleneck sweater and patched up short overalls but the most endearing part of her appearance were the leaves stuck in her hair form being up in the tree.

"Beatrice!? What-what the hell was that for?" he breathed. " I could have hit you!"

Beatrice just laughed, "But you didn't and anyway I would have dodged it." taking another bite of the apple. He watched her swallow the piece of fruit before his brown eyes flickered away from her throat up to her hazel eyes, they were shining. "I actually wanted to jump on your back but this works to. Your lap is very comfortable." Bea laid down on his chest, still straddling him, chin resting in her hand, Smoker's face flushed, " I wanted to surprise you. Are you surprised?" Smoker grunted, he wanted to move his legs but he was to afraid too. "Y-Yes, very." Beatrice grinned again and put the apple she had been eating to his lips.

"Good-have a bite. These apples are absolutely delicious." Smoker nodded and took a bite, making the the bear woman smile, her soft ears twitchy cutely, before she slid off of him. Smoker sat up quickly, as she removed the apple from his mouth swallowing the piece of fruit looking away sheepishly, also trying not to choke. The bear woman looked down at him, head cocking like a curious bear cub before taking another bite. " I'm glad you are here. I'm almost finished up here, care to help, you can take some back to your boat?"

Smoker sighed, taking out two cigars then lighting them. He suddenly reached out and removed the leaves in Beatrice's hair eliciting a small blush from the woman. With one of the leaves he bopped her on the nose, her hazel eyes widening at him causing him to grin. " Yeah I'll help ya, Bea, but no more tricks."

Beatrice grinned and put out her bear claw of a hand, "All right deal." He just shook his head before shaking her hand. The two then took to it, Beatrice scurrying up the tree with ease while Smoker held the basket. The vice admiral watched her and couldn't help have a smile on his lips. With each time they met-she too seemed to let down the dark and intimidating facade.

It didn't mean she still couldn't be scary as hell but when it was just the two of them like this, doing the most mundane things, she seemed a lot happier and playful-sweet: attributes Smoker didn't want to admit he found endearing. Smoker just watched her move with ease in the tree trying not to stare at her backside and the little cute nub of a tail, nor the way he saw her muscles move or the way her hair look incredible soft in the afternoon light. Smoker coughed, shit, he didn't want to admit...maybe he had it bad for the woman...maybe.

"Smoker do you need some water?" Beatrice looked down from the tree eyebrows furrowed in concern, but he shook his head and waved his gloved hand in front of him,

"No-no I'm fine."

"Okay..if you are sure."

The two worked on, mostly in silent but comfortable in the silence of each other. By the time they were done, the sun would be setting in an hour or so. Vernmouth came out and waved them in,

"That's enough for the day you two. You both did more than enough." The old man grinned, "Feel free to take a basket home with you-each of you. "

"Thanks Vern-" Beatrice came up and gave him a hug and he just patted her head before she pulled back. Smoker just gave the man a handshake,

"Thanks, appreciate it." With that the two set off, each with a basket of fresh apples. They walked side by side-Beatrice flexed her bear claw and attempted to rush Smoker's hand but the man seemed to be lost in thought. She cleared her throat, Smoker's soft brown eyes looked over to her,

"You know-it will be dark pretty soon. You could stay at my place for the night."

Smoker laughed, "I ain't afraid of the dark, Bea. I could make it to the ship just fine." Beatrice frowned and looked away,

"Well-I thought you would be tired after all that labor and you might want to stay in a nice little cottage, with a warm fire and a good meal for the night." She tossed her hair over her shoulder, pouting. Smoker didn't answer her. "Not to mention, a comfortable bed to sleep in, better than that hammock you are used to on the ship."

Smoker furrowed his eyebrows, "You only have one bed." He turned to look at her and she met his gaze and smiled, her eyes looking a bit mischievous again,

"Oh I know-I don't mind sharing." Smoker nearly choked on his cigars and looked away, "I have a couch too, but it might be just a tad less comfortable then the queen size bed, and all those warm blankets." She shrugged.

Again Smoker couldn't answer her, his face felt heated. Silence again, came between them. Beatrice would steal glances at Smoker, trying to gauge his mood but his face was unreadable, except maybe for the blush now on his cheeks but that could just be the glow from the setting sun. Smoker didn't turn to look at her even though he felt her eyes on him. He heard her make a small noise before she bumped up against him causing another shiver to run through him.

" Smokey?"

"Hm?"

"Can you give me a piggy back ride?" Beatrice's voice came out a lot softer than her usual tone, perhaps she was embarrassed at the request. Smoker turned to look at her, eyebrows furrowed , cigars forever puffing, had he heard her right?

"What?"

Beatrice looked at him, perhaps a tad shy. She twisted a piece of her soft mousy hair around one of her bear claws, " Piggy back ride...Can I get a piggy ride back please."

"Do your feet hurt?" She shook her head no. Smoker furrowed his eyebrows more, " Did you hurt ankle?"

Beatrice felt her face heat up, "No- I just thought...

"Then why would I-?" Beatrice looked away blushing and lips pouted,

"Oh never mind." she snapped, her tone not angry just tired and perhaps a bit sad.

Once more silence, before Smoker just huffed and stomped in front of her, "All right Bea, get on, and stop that pouting." He grumbled, hiding his face from her. He heard a little excited 'eep!' before she scampered up onto his back. He felt her weight against him and her face rest against the back of his head. Her lower bear arms and claws draped over his shoulders while he held on to her legs.

He then felt a soft kiss flutter on the back of his neck causing another shiver to race up his spine, "Thanks Smoker." her breath warm and gentle against his skin. Smoker just grunted and cleared his throat,

"Hm. Whatever. Don't get used to it though, I'm not going to be letting you do this all the time."

Beatrice laughed, "How about only on special occasions?" "This isn't a special occasion."

"It's special to me." she said factually. "And you never answered my question?"

"What question?" Smoker adjusted his placement on how he was holding her, shifting his weight slightly, adjusting the basket of apples on his arm along with still holding on to Beatrice.

Beatrice sighed exasperated, "Are you staying over or what? Or am I going to spend a lovely fall night all alone?" He could practically hear her pouting. "Hmph." Smoker let smoke out through his nose, he chewed on his cigars a bit harder. He didn't want to admit it but he really wanted to. Not just because yeah, sleeping in a home would be nice instead of sleeping on the ship but he wanted to be with her. Though in his heart he knew it would be not wise. He couldn't -he shouldn't. "I can't keep seeing her like this....I should just cut ties now. I don't want to hurt her." He sighed to himself, he felt her lean more on to him, perhaps trying to turn her head to see his face.

"Smoker?" her voice was soft in his ears.

" I want to though...I want to be with her but I know with her living here and me being a marine-I don't know how long it's going to work out for us." "Hey Smoker...are you okay?" Smoker felt a gentle touch on his exposed skin, the skin that was peaking out from his button up shirt. He jolted and his grasp suddenly tighten on her as if she would suddenly disappear from him.

"Yes... I'm fine." he paused exhaling a breath, releasing his touch ever so slightly on her. "I'll stay over...if it isn't trouble." he muttered. He shouldn't but he would. Who knew how long he would get to be with her, might as well take all the time he could get.

"Wait what really!? You will?" Beatrice gasped and hugged him his neck causing him to choke.

"Be-Beatrice choking!"

"Oh-oh sorry I'm just happy!" she nuzzled her nose into the back of his neck causing that little tremor through his body, "I'm so happy you are here, Smoker." her voice going softer. Smoker just huffed a laugh, gently patting her legs, his chest tightening.

"Yeah...me too."
