Loco-Motion

I don’t know what’s in this… maybe some Zin, maybe some Rhone or Merlot… something bland and pointless. It’s a nice sipper, easy on the palate, no tannin, a bit of acid, no compelling nose or body… Just a red blend for people who hate red wine and want something un-insulting but still tell people they drink red wine. Completely forgettable. 2019 LOCATELLI ‘Melodia’ PS/Zin 50/50 Paso Robles…

Biography

Born the youngest child of a wealthy family, and only boy. Just before Fearghas' birth, his parents had gone to take a trip. Leaving his two sisters at relatives, their parents boarded the flight as usual, planning to return home just before Fearghas was to be born. This, however, would come to pass. A malfunction during their return trip would cause the plane to start to crash. 

Many of its passengers would die, but others would survive the crash. With the remaining survivors that weren't injured being Fearghas' mother. Managing to crawl her away out of the crash with injuries of her own, she would scream for her husband, but otherwise could not find him at that time. As time passed, so too did Fearghas mother's condition. Eventually giving having Fearghas out there in the woods, surrounded by the chaos. Not long after this, while people were still running around helping each other, Fearghas' father would find his wife.

With both parents and baby all having survived for the time being, they waited only a few hours more till rescue came for them. With a sleepy infant in her arms, Fearghas, with his parents, were some of the first to be taken away from the crash, due to having the newborn. Later in the hospital, Fearghas would be looked over and declared unharmed by the crash overall. However, the same could not be said of his mother, whose condition continued to worse, and she would die of injuries and the ordeal of the birth itself.

Weeks later Fearghas would be at home with his remaining family, where life would be strange for the rest of his family members, now that their mother and wife were gone. Fearghas' care was then often relegated to caretakers in the wealthy family's home. Fearghas' early childhood would be a normal one aside from this. As he grew older and became more independent he would frequently be off in his own little world, by twelve he was role playing out scenes from shows and movies he'd watched, and coming up with his own little epic tales that he would act out.

However, one of his ventures out, he would come to faint and collapse in the woods. After being found, Fearghas would be rushed to the hospital. After some tests to see what had happened, he and his father would be informed of his being diabetic. After this diagnosis, Fearghas for a short time more conscious of his outings, not sure how to deal with the news for some time. But, in time, the feeling would, and he would again pick up and continue his life as normal. Again returning to his playing in the woods and not letting it get to him from that day forward.

Again, life would once more go back to normal. Fearghas would often get into trouble for bugging his sisters, by flipping the table if he wasn't winning a game. But this was not out of any anger. But a desire for destruction. Which he was very good at this, at times being entirely annoying, just to get a rise out of his older sisters. He would do the other typical little brother things that could be expected, by ripping the heads off their dolls, or going into their rooms when they were older to read from their diaries. Stuff like that. But the siblings still cared very deeply for one another.

This would be more than true when Fearghas was fifteen, he had been play fighting with his middle sister over what to watch on TV when the call came. Their father had gotten into a multiple-car crash. He would not make it and the children would again have to bury another parent. After the funeral, the children were left in the care of the remaining caretakers at the family home. Where they had been living for only a short while now, in Los Angelus, for their father's work, and in time, they would continue on as normal. 

Fearghas' also started to focus on what he would like to do from that moment on, with his life. Not wanting to get involved in the same business as his parents, he started getting into drama at school. Taking a real liking to this. From there, he would, after graduating from that school, go on to a more prominent acting school, for college. Over this time he would get smaller acting roles. But did not get any breakout role until after his graduation from University, Where he has gotten many wild, mostly untrue rumors spread about him and his behavior and 'strange activities', as they would call them.

To atone for basically ditching last night, my brother made dinner! Delicious steaks and I threw together a salad. I’m not a huge red meat eater and I loved it!

I did the dishes as a thank you and set up my dad’s coffee for the morning and laundry is in the dryer and now I’m enjoying some petite sirah.

[rom-e-o]

Good news: I just completed a multi-month fundraising goal for local animal shelters. We passed out goal by 127%. It was a huge project, and I’m thrilled, and right in time for the holidays.

Bad news: I have to drive six hours this Friday/Saturday for a surprise business trip.

So, help me out:

Nu:Carnival Character Headcanons:

⚛》》》Favorite Wines《《《⚛

~Quick note~ My entire week has consisted of me making this list that no one ever asked for, or the probably ever thought about. For some further context, I work as a wine specialist at a giant liquor store, and I have way too much time on my hands where I read a lot about wine and sake. I've added images of one of my favorite wine references, Wine Folly, and highly recommend their website and books if you're curious about wine. Without further a do, if you don't mind a long post, I have combined some of my obsessions: Nu:Carnival and what wines I think suit each character.

Eiden:

Port, like all the way, he wants something sweet and Hella strong. Considered a fortified wine, put simply a wine that has been given additional alcohol, Port comes in many styles, but most are sweet. Eiden specifically loves the chocolate and nutty flavors that these wines have. Also this wine can be a hit or miss for people, so Eiden gets a great laugh out of seeing others' reactions to his favorite wine. Give this baby a bottle of Port and he can talk for hours on end about the crazy stories he’s collected after some wild nights with this wine.

Petite Sirah, Aster would want a wine that is very full in body (aka something that really coats the mouth, similar to blood) and powerful bold flavors, he’s an extremely experienced wine connoisseur, or “wine snob” as Morvay would say, but regardless Aster knows his wines. He loves showing off his personal cellar, explaining the areas they come from, and he especially enjoys bragging about the cost of the wines he’s collected. 

Aster:

It’s taken Morvay quite some time to get into wine. For many years he’s been firm in his statement that he doesn’t like wine like that shitty-little-vampire does. Most of the red wines Aster has made him try are far too bitter, and the white wines are sour as hell. He’s finally realized dessert styled wines exist, such as Muscat of Alexandria, and can be caught sometimes at night sipping this wine with some biscotti as a treat.

Morvay:

Yakumo at first glance comes across as someone who would not be into a “dry red wine” so it’s really interesting to think that his favorite wine would be a Malbec. There has been many occasions where he was served a much sweeter wine than he would personally like, but obviously it’s Yakumo, poor baby is too nervous to let someone know they got his order wrong. Much like Eiden’s favorite wine Port, Malbec has similar rich dark fruit flavors and a smooth chocolatey finish, these wines are a lot dryer in comparison, but not too bitter. It is a wonderful balance for the precious chef Yakumo. (This is one of my favorites too, let's go Yakumo bb)

Yakumo:

Vidal Blanc is not only a bougie sounding wine, but it goes exceptionally well with fresh fruits and desserts. This wine is an elegant off-dry style white wine that can be used to flaunt floral and fruity flavors without being too sweet or childish. As we know Edmond has his sweet tooth, so he would really enjoy the Ice wine style this grape can be used to make. Ice wines are as sweet as dessert wines can go and they take a lot of time and effort to make just a small amount. It’s a perfect pairing for our perfectionist and hardworking captain.

Edmond:

Every winemaking area has established a sparkling wine (I’m somewhat imagining what wines would correspond to the different Klein regions) Olivine is very curious to try anything new, so when traveling and discussing things with nobles he has grown very fond of a particular sparkling wine, Prosecco. He always has gravitated towards a gentle sweetness and slightly acidic flavors and this wine has a perfect balance. As per Eiden’s recommendation, Olivine has discovered this wine makes amazing cocktails such as mimosas, so every now and then Olivine enjoys making those for a relaxing brunch with the clan members. 

Olivine:

An interesting thing we've learned about Quincy during this current Rainy Season event is that his favorite foods include honey, jerky, and dried fish, very natural and raw focused foods that absolutely suit him. A unique wine that has a unique flavor profile of earthy fruits, herbs, and meat is one called Pinotage. Quincy, much like all our wood territory babes, is highly skilled in the winemaking trade. Pinotage is a wine that is very challenging to produce and Quincy has practically mastered it. So much so Quincy doesn’t really drink the wine, but prefers to keep it stored away. He’s positive that the right time will come to enjoy this wine, perhaps with a special individual, right when it’s aging duration has peaked. 

Quincy:

Umeshu or Japanese Plum wine, this is a tricky one because it technically is fermented ume fruit with the addition of distilled alcohol, aka this is a liqueur not a wine at all. Kuya is known for being a trickster though, so it’s a perfect match for him. Umeshu can be made at home, though it does take a lot of time to infuse, it makes the occasions when Kuya drinks this a real treat. The flavors of Umeshu are a mix of sweet and sour fruits like plums or apricots with a lingering alcohol burn. Kuya takes a lot of pride in homemade Umeshu and will lure others (Eiden) into drinking this delicious and sneakily strong beverage with him. (Another personal favorite of mine ♡)

Kuya:

Favorable of all things delicious and mostly edible, Garu and Karu are foodies willing to try anything at least once. They’re super new to trying alcoholic drinks and can’t really handle the smell and taste of something with a strong alcohol content. Concord is a classic beginner wine and it has a very distinguishable grape flavor, let’s think like a traditional grape juice or jelly. Depending on how it’s made, this wine can range from non-alcoholic all the way to higher percentages, Garu and Karu are big fans of having this sweet wine with snacks. Who knew that a wolf yokai would be obsessed with concord grape wine with a pb&j sandwich!

Garu & Karu:

He really enjoys the sweet and lightly sparkling version of this grape varietal, Moscato D’Asti. They have a full assortment of fruit aromas and flavors like peaches and honey, and they have a low ABV making them super easy to drink. Blade describes this wine as “Cute Juice” hence that’s his first response to describing the effervescence. He’s an even bigger fan of being able to use his e-droid abilities to analyze the many fruit flavors in this wine and he’s always excited to share the flavors whenever his darling is ready to try them. *wink wink*

Blade:

A great leader must also know great wines, and it seems super likely that Soleria would make bright red fruit focused wines with lots of herbs and spices. Sangiovese is an extremely versatile grape that can be blended and aged into numerous wine styles; it goes even better with savory and spiced foods. Dante is very intelligent when it comes to wine and is even more impressive when he guides others through a proper wine tasting. Even though Dante has a fierce way of showing it, deep down he really just wants others to appreciate wine the way he does.

Dante:

Rei really enjoys all of the genetic mutations of the Pinot Noir grape, like Pinot Gris or Pinot Blanc, coming from a scientific perspective. More often than not though, the complex red wine Pinot Noir is his favorite to consume, especially during his late night studies and experimentations. Depending on where this wine is grown the flavors can be very misconstrued, quite often it is thought to be a fruity and slightly sweet, but it takes people by surprise by being tart and dry. Rei really likes a lighter bodied red wine that has a slight bite of sassy acidity just like him. 

Rei:

Thank you for reading! I spent way too long thinking about and writing this. I'd love to know what others think and what your favorite wine is if you have one! I also just realized I never thought of wines for Rin or Huey, but I really am not super sure what I'd pick for them.

Stags' Leap Winery Petite Sirah Napa Valley 2019 (Half Bottle 375mL)

[wine-porn]

Who Killed Kenny?

There’s something about how Napa Valley does Petite Sirah. It’s so elegant, so refined, so almost cab-like. So different from the delta or Claksburg or DCV or Mendo versions. Where they gain their aplomb from harsh, brilliant rusticity and raw power, the Napa examples run eloquent and refined. This is a prime example. Black and impenetrable with a sliver of clear rim. Musty, dirty, buttery,…

[enciendemiluz]

Cada vez compruebo que es tan cierto que con ciertas personas pueden pasar meses y es como si nunca se fueron. La plática puede continuar como si se hubiera tenido una conversación hace poco.

El nudo en mi garganta me tomo por sorpresa, hace mucho tiempo que no tenía ese sentimiento al querer expresarme. Al fin poder decir de frente a esa mirada tan dulce que me hacía falta , que me dolió poder seguir adelante sin el pero más que nada que lo extrañaba como no tenía idea. No te busqué por ser fuerte no porque no quisiera. Las ganas nunca faltaron y en mis pensamientos estuviste siempre.

El amor permanece donde amas intensamente nunca muere ni se olvida. Yo cargaré con este pensamiento por siempre solo me queda poder disfrutar del presente. Afortunada de tenerte en mi vida.
