Midnights of October masterlist

*

When you first told Noah that you have never been to a pumpkin patch he would think it was because you simply didn't want to

So he wouldn't understand when you started showing him cute tiktoks and pictures from pumpkin patch vlogs, saying that you should take cute couple pictures like that too

"Wait I thought you never went there because you didn't want to?" Noah would ask you one day, confused after you showed him video where couple with a baby went to pumpkin patch family date and told him that you have to do it too one day when you have a baby

"What? Oh no Noah, my parents just never took me as a kid and then I wanted to go with my ex, but he said it's too childish. I'd love to go!" you said, surprised too, because you didn't know you made it look like you don't like the idea of pumpkin patch date

"Oh my god baby, you should have said that. You're free on friday after work?"

You jumped around your kitchen like a baby that finally got what they wanted

You were so excited to finally have a pumpkin patch date

When friday came it was the longest 8 hours of your life, you were excited for what's coming after work

Noah said he'll pick you at work and you'll head to the closest pumpkin patch

"Here is your coffee and cinnamon bun, the ride is about 40 minutes and I took your jacket in case you'll get cold there." Noah said when you entered the car

Excitement was shining in his eyes and so was in yours

When you arrived at the pumpkin patch it was HUGE

Pumpkins, bales of hay, coffee and food trucks, halloween decoration and candles

It was slightly foggy and the trees with colorful leaves were making the autumn atmosphere just perfect

You two didn't know what to do first, so you made a plan

First you agreed to take pictures, then you're actually going to pick which pumpkins you're going to buy and then have some quick snack at one of the trucks and head home

I honestly have a feeling that Noah would be good at the photographer role as a boyfriend

"You're cute." Noah would give you compliments while taking pictures, so later when you scrool through them and hold the live pictures you can hear him talking and that's freaking cute

You also stopped a stranger to take pictures of the both of you standing in front of the piles of pumpkins or sitting on the bales of hay with decoration

You were also taking short videos to make into a tiktok video later

Also managed to take few pictures of Noah when he wasn't looking

You chose one big pumpkin for each of you, also managed to argue over it while choosing it

"Thank you Noah, I had great time." you smiled over your coffe at Noah

"Baby I'd take you here sooner if you'd say you want to go. We can make it a tradition, that way we can have pictures every year until we have one with a baby like in that video you showed me."

You felt your heart skip a beat

"You want to have a baby with me?"

"I will have ten babies with you if that's what you want." Noah said it like it was obvious

You finished your drinks and packed your big pumpkins in Noah's car and left when the sun started to set, making the drive very romantic

When you entered your shared home and turned the lights on you were surprised to see that your living room somehow turned into a work field, but also bedroom at the same time

Your couch was full of blankets and pillows, you also noticed candles around it

In front of it was lots of knifes, spoons, sharpies and bowls

"What is this?" you turned to face Noah for an explanation

"Well, I thought we could continue with the date. Start with carving the pumpkins and then have a movie night. If you want." Noah had a shy look on his face

"Of course I want, that's the best date night I ever had."

You started wirh carving the pumpkins, that involved lots of laughs and mess in your living room

When you were done you cleaned the mess, took shower together to clean yourselves too and finally snuggled on your couch with some snacks

You felt sleep taking over you, so before you fell asleep you wanted to tell Noah again how thankful you were

He was gently stroking your tummy under his sweatshirt that you were wearing

"Noah I really had fun today, thank you so much."

"Anytime baby, I love you."

"I love you."

With that you shared kiss and that was the last thing you remembered before you fell asleep

“Have you really found me or am I a fake?”

[SSR] Yuya Florence- Pumpkin King

Yes I made them another card Here’s the first one

Event by me

Also Yuya threw Crowley in the dungeon for 30 minutes as their first decree as King also hope his majesty doesn’t have anything personal against you

I think I’ll use this one to make voice lines about the participates (Oc or any one who makes something for canon characters)

Voice lines under cut

Hopper B has been smashing up my pumpkins! But the one with my face got juice in his eyes ha!

Joseph being a detective is pretty on brand for this event but just what is in that suit case…I need to be careful

Look at all those webs must be from Flori M., I heard she also loves Halloween too! I’ll try to talk to her when the party starts

I can see Reese is dressed up as a butterfly…what are they doing with Kalim?? better stay clear.

Sophie is starting to get frustrated on finding me, Mal had to stop her from pulling her pigtails out after running into another fake

Team Jack-o-lantern has been wearing Sylvie out, why can’t they just have one of them take a break with her while the others run around a bit

Team witches might as well be the winner ugh, I swear finding where I’m at is Kalmia’s sixth sense!…she’s looking my way right now I can feel it.

Malleus has been pretty amused by my tricks, who knows what he has in store for me… I think I been rubbing off on him

Galen has been looking for me in the pumpkin patch, haha to bad many of them have my face on them

Hopper O spotted me earlier but luckily I managed to blend in with the crowd before he could get to second glance

Yumi H is dressed up like a plague doctor, just look at that mask I saw her scaring Riddle a couple of times too

Yumi Y said in her home country that there’s a legend that some objects that are over 100 become Youkais, I’ll ask more about it at the party

Swallow has been eyeing some treasures, he hasn’t pocketed anything yet but if he does it’s to the dungeon with him! It’s one thing to steal from me but not my citizens

Hebe has been more interested in jump scaring people than finding me, don’t tell them this but I had to pretend to be scared when they were scaring people around me

I was just behind Flurin earlier haha I disappeared before he could turn around better luck next time prince

We actually have another chaperone joining us this time he’s name is Zayn, unfortunately for him there will be no finding me quickly

Now that everyone is getting closer Reyu has started to get more competitive will that lead the team to finding my?

Of course Ace is breaking the rules, can’t say I haven’t expected this so I’ll just have to give him extra tricks, hope his team is ready

Have you seen Rebecca’s hair? It must have taken a long time to do…but how long will it take to get out?

[phantomspren]

I've been watching LotR the last few days (cause why watch something I haven't seen before from my incredibly long list of things I need to watch when I can watch something I've seen before a ton) and I just want to talk about radical hope.

The story of LotR is bleak. Just. So incredibly hopeless. There are so many points where the characters just genuinely have no hope that they will live, let alone save the world.

During Return of the King, there is a literal darkness that covers the world for days. The only hope there is for success is a couple hobbits. Who are walking through enemy territory. With one thing that would instantly guarantee success to the enemy.

And in the end Frodo fails.

Despite all of this

They kept hoping.

Frodo failed and all was lost.

But it wasn't.

They saved everything.

They didn't make it through unscarred. Many people didn't make it through at all. But they did make it.

But they wouldn't have if they'd given up.

Sam's speech at the end of The Two Towers left me in tears. (It normally doesn't.)

Lately I've been feeling incredibly hopeless. I'm at the point in my life where I'm trying to figure out what I want to do for a living, and I'm currently working towards something that I have so little chance of succeeding in. I'm paying so much money to go to school for this.

Beyond just me, I'm terrified for the upcoming election for obvious reasons. I live in a country where we already have a maternal mortality rate that's way too fucking high and people are actively working to make that worse. I live in a country where there are people who don't think I and the people I love deserve to exist. I live in a country where the highest cause of death for children is guns.

I live in a world where there is an active genocide going on and no one gives a shit. I live in a world where the deadliest disease has a cure, but why would we give them access to that? The people dying from it are poor. They're poor because of us. I live in a world that those in power are slowly destroying.

But I'm here. We're all here. And there's so much bad. But there's so much good.

I went to a convention last month, and it was the most fun I'd ever had. I want to do that again.

I got invited to go to a pumpkin patch with a friend next week.

I just finished rereading Hamlet.

I have motivation to write and tell stories for the first time in years.

I made a new friend this year.

I still haven't finished listening to Welcome to Nightvale.

Alecto the Ninth isn't out yet.

I had a friend help me out yesterday.

I helped out a different friend.

There are stars in the sky.

The leaves are turning colors and falling and it's so beautiful.

I watched a movie that I've seen at least a dozen times before and it made me cry.

It feels so hopeless.

But that's not a reason to give up hope.

We gotta fight for what we've got. I'm going to fight tooth and nail even if all it means is that I get to see one more sunset, read one more book that changes me, meet one more person who gets me.

I don't care if you can donate a thousand dollars to a charity, or if all you can do is just stick around for another day because you know that you will feel joy again at some point, that's what you gotta do.

It might get worse.

We might not see things get better.

But it will get better again. And before it does, there will still be moments of joy. And the chance that we'll see everything get better, the chance that we'll see anything get better, that's worth sticking around for.

That's radical hope.

Sam: It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam?

Sam: That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo… and it’s worth fighting for.

Feedist Kinktober Day 29- Pumpkin Patch

"Yo, I don't think we should do this," You say to your friend. Your friend laughs at you.

"Yeah whatever," Your friend lifts the baseball to smash a pumpkin, you catch the baseball bat in time.

"Dude, this is someone's pumpkin garden or whatever, we shouldn't smash it!"

Your friend scoffs. They look behind you and immediately drop the bat. The stare there, as if staring at abjact horror before they begin to start screaming and running for the hills. You turn around expecting to find a bear behind you and instead it's this little ole lady.

She looks up at you and adjusts her glasses. "Hello?" She asks sweetly.

Your heart bleeds for the ole woman, feeling bad that you and your idiot friend were about to destroy this woman's garden because you needed to let off steam.

"Hi there," you say gently. "Hey, I'm really sorry about my friend," you begin, she waves you off.

"Well I might not be able to see you honey, but I can hear as well. And thank you for protecting this little ole garden. You deserve a treat for your kindness." She says, giving you a toothy smile.

The smile feels a little off, but you ignore it. "Oh, I shouldn't ma'am. I mean all I did-"

"Nonsense! You stopped that fool before he destroyed my pumpkins. These are country fair winners, two years in a row, don'tcha know?" She says with a little little chuckle. You look at the pumpkins and see they're massive. The one your friend was gonna smash looked like a baby in comparison.

"I'm really happy for you ma'am! But I don't think-"

"Ohhh, please! Please do stay, I never get company out here."

Your heart breaks and you find yourself nodding. "Of course ma'am, it would be my pleasure."

She grins. She shakes as she finds you in the patch but once she grips onto you, it's a death like grip. She directs you into her house. It's an adorable cottage decorated with all kinds of pumpkin and candy themed things on the outside. On the inside is cozier smelling like freshly baked goods.

She has you sit down at the table as she cuts up a slice of pumpkin pie and brings you some coffee, cream and sugar already added. She has some tea instead, saying that coffee made her too jittery before bed.

You take a bite out of the pumpkin pie and find yourself nodding. "This is very good ma'am. You should be proud!" You take more bites, savoring the mix of pumpkin and cinnamon. She cuts you another slice as you devour the first.

She chuckles and drinks some peppermint tea. "I would hope so, it was my wife's favorite."

"Your wife had good taste," you chuckle. She giggles alongside you.

You continue to eat slice after slice until the pie tin is empty. You lean back in the chair, trying to keep your burps inside. Your tummy feels strange but you chalk that up to being overfull with pie. You don't notice as your tummy expands and begins to sit in your lap. Or when your brown skin begins to become a deep orange. You don't even feel the vines slinking out of your curls. You groan and look at the old lady, but she doesn't look old anymore.

She's a beautiful young woman, maybe in her early 30s. She looks at you and rubs your belly. You moan and feels your vines wrap around her. She giggles and strokes your vines. You coo and feel yourself relax more into your share until it breaks under you. You fall, your ass slapping against the ground. But luckily you had a lot more cushioning now.

"Mmm, I knew giving you the pumpkin pie was a good idea. You see typically I punish punks like your friend with this spell, but you were so willing to protect my patch. I think I'll make you a pumpkin guardian instead. How does that sound?" She asks beginning to rubs the bumps on your orange skin.

You belch and look at her with bleary eyes. She pats your cheeks and kisses you deeply. "How about some more pumpkin, pumpkin?"

[artificialbreezy]

Hope you feel better soon💗

Don't mind me, I just had to scroll down your blog for month old posts to make sure I talked about this with you🥹😂

Today my coworker asked me for a costume idea for her kids and like I have no idea, because halloween isn't really a thing in my country and she wanted something thematic, so I was like 'just put them in orange clothes, stuff their t shirts and yay you have three little pumpkins' and I remembered the bad omens family costume competition and thought about having little family with Noah and doing this one year, because you didn't have time to do something better and everyone else has complicated dramatic costumes and then there's Sebastian family as ✨pumpkins✨

Also can you imagine those baby pictures, putting them in some field or grass, you know, your own little pumpkin🥹

Sorry this is longer that I expected lol

this is the cutest thing in the whole world and i’m actually yelling!!!!!!

it’d be a whole thing for a while too. everyone brings it, and what better way to tell everyone you’re pregnant again than your one child planting a pumpkin seed with the caption “new pumpkin to the patch”

[ghost-kitty-cat]

Casey Headcanons! (Oh boy... dear brain of mine, please no sad Headcanons for the flower boy... please...)

First Headcanon, I don't know why but I totally imagine Casey was the kind of kid who grew up on Disney movies (I imagine his favorite was possibly Bambi and you would think that because he grew up with Disney movies that the movies wouldn't make him cry but nope!.. Bambi totally still makes him cry…)

Second Headcanon, (slightly a funny ironic one.. but..) despite being a huge plant lover, I totally imagine that Casey actually has a pollen allergy (or something)... so he has to be careful.... XD

Third Headcanon, (Don't know why my brain thought of this but I really like it soo...) I totally imagine Casey grew up in the country though he never developed a accent or anything... he possibly had to move away from the country when he was older because of school (or something) but despite that he still always had a strong love for nature…

Fourth Headcanon, soo... I totally picture Casey being the type of kid who loved biology class... (even though that probably caused a small bit of bullying for him...)

Fifth Headcanon, (soo... remember my little cyril Headcanon where he had that imaginary bubble/shield?... well...) I totally imagine Casey having something similar... (again we don't know why he has it, he just does...) Lauren and Honey are allowed through the bubble/shield but others aren't... (unlike Cyril, Casey is definitely working on shattering the imaginary bubble/shield with some help from Honey... its just baby steps...)

Sixth Headcanon, (another slightly funny one also slightly a Lauren Headcanon...) but in the pumpkin patch video (if I'm remembering this correctly...) it was mentioned that Lauren had gotten her and Casey kicked out of the pumpkin patch once... and I totally imagine that wasn't the only time that Lauren got them kicked out of places... (I like to imagine there's a few restaurants and possibly a few other shops that Lauren has gotten her and Casey kicked out of...)

Seventh Headcanon, Casey definitely gives me the vibes of a person who loves cats but he never got one because he wouldn't want any plants to get knocked over... (because cats are mischievous things...)

Eighth Headcanon, (slightly based off when Casey first came up with Honey's nickname.... but...) I totally imagine there's been times where Casey has tried once more to called Honey something like "Baby", "Babe" and etc but he always get too embarrassed by it... (which both Lauren and Honey find slightly funny...)

Ninth Headcanon, (another slightly funny one...) because I've always pictured Casey with longer hair, I totally imagine there were a few times that people thought he was a girl and he was too nervous/shy to say anything...

Tenth Headcanon, because of how he's used to taking care of plants, I imagine when it comes to humans (for example, Honey) and he tends to accidentally treat them like they're fragile and going to break at any moment... I imagine he tends to get super concerned whenever Honey trips or cuts themselves on accidental... and Honey has to constantly reassure him that they're ok... (oh great! Thanks a lot brain!... sure it wasn't really a sad Headcanon but you still made me cry! ;-;)

hee hoo! abelia chamomile, aloe vera :3

Hi, hi! q(≧▽≦q)

"abelia ⇢ do you have a particular piece of jewelry you always wear or can’t part with?"

I can't wear most metals because they tend to leave signs on my skin, but there's this thin necklace made of gold I wear everyday. It has a sun shaped pendant and it's usually hidden under my clothes. My mother gave it to me a few years ago when I was facing a difficult personal moment. Originally the necklace was gifted to her when she was 19 yo so it's older than me haha

"chamomile ⇢ what kind of things do you like receiving as gifts?"

I like candles and keys, but I absolutely love anything handmade. The idea of a friend spending hours to create something unique only for me... makes my heart swell with joy!

"aloe vera ⇢ what’s something (mundane) you really want to experience in life?"

Uhm, I don't think it's vert mundane but I want to visit a pumpkin patch. I know they are very common outside of my country, but here they're still rare. There's a homestead not so far from my city where you can visit the patch during Autumn so I'll try to go there in September/October.

I love this man so much and I loved this post so much, being ace myself it feels good

But since I know there's always ppl thinking "he didn't say it tho" and with the purpose of maybe having the chance of making the day for any other Stay out there:

When it comes to idols such as Channie that has been censored for things like saying people doesn't greet that much nowadays this is a statement, also, not the first one he's done for the community

In many fan calls, Channie's Room and concerts he has shown support through comments and reactions

▶ Like that time a Stay was telling him that she met her girlfriend because of SKZ:

OP: My gf is in town. I actually wanted to tell you about her

BC: Yeah!

OP: Her name is Emi. We met earlier this year because of SKZ

BC: BECAUSE OF US?!

OP: Yeah!

BC: I feel so happy!!! —Clapping his hands and smiling—

OP: We've been together officially for like 5 months now

BC: That's good! That's good! And you guys happy?

OP: Yeah and so, we're spending Halloween together. We're gonna do some like pumpkin patch things —

BC: Awwww, that's so- It makes me really proud I don't know why — Alarm beeping— but thank you

▶ Also as I said he has identified people holding pride flags in the audience and pointed to them singing "You're doing well" specifically, the time when some Channie's fanboys started yelling "BANGCHAN I'M GAY FOR YOU!" and the man was blushing around, the time he was giving a speech in the middle of a concert and said "It doesn't matter if you're a boy, a girl or anyone you choose to be" or well, every time he tried to answer dating related questions/topics in Chan's room and made sure to be inclusive

▶ But to tie things up with the flag in the bg it was in the middle of a song dedicated to love itself, one that can last an eternity as the title says and the thing is that he made real clear how universal it was when he said it was for Berry too, but as you can see if you read the lyrics it can be applied to any kind of relationship, friends, family, couples, so it really was on purpose, think about it this way, they have to be really careful with how they express due to the company policy, even Stay has commented that they offered SKZ (Felix and Han if I recall correctly) some pride flags but the staff informed them that they couldn't let them, and we all know it has a lot to do with culture of all countries around the globe when it comes to diversity of any kind so for idols it's usually a rule to have some limits to demonstrate support but Chan has always found a way to do it, discrete but clear and this is no exception.

▶ That flag in a love song? Is not only not a coincidence but a statement, "love is love"

April Flowers

Hey Hi How Are You ?? It is April 1st and I'm thinking of you as I roast my third coffee of the morning (it just hit noon) and I was stalking your Instagram and forgot to turn off the espresso machine so it is sad and watery and the price for that is newly acquired info on your current life and current happenings and I'm thinking about how you came and went out of my life (just like I did in yours) and we were once 13 and sharing cups of hot chocolate at the pier one summer night and splitting a bucket of sour straws at a pumpkin patch after many hours at Dave & Buster's and the days I spent braiding your hair and the days I came over and cleaned your room for you because I knew that you were too tired to do it yourself.

And now we are turning 22 and you have a long-distance boyfriend who drives a Geico-themed car and apparently he looks nice with his hair up when he goes down on you and that information surprised me and I didn't really know what to say except "congratulations" and "I'm glad he looks nice with a ponytail." I must admit, I felt jealous when you said that he would brave the across-country flights for you—do all that just to spend a weekend together in your cramped college dorm. It made me pucker in sadness but also I was genuinely happy that you have someone who would do that for you.

April 1st always makes me think of you because you told me that your cat died in sixth grade and I wasn't sure if it was an April Fool's joke or not so I awkwardly chuckled and you refused to talk to me for a week. Remember that? Now, April Fool's Day always gives me a slight sense of guilt for hurting your feelings way back then, even though we had smiled and talked about it in later years. I want to say that I'm sorry, I know how much Wonder meant to you.

And I still miss you and the things we used to have and I know your favorite color is a powder blue and you didn't know that your pet gecko was a girl until she laid eggs and your first run-in with alcohol was when you chugged half a bottle of vodka in 10th grade by yourself in bed and woke up covered in vomit. I remember that I was the first person you texted when you woke up, hung over and dazed. You got me that comically stupid belt from Hot Topic with the huge Legend of Zelda buckle, I still have it in my closet. I have all the birthday cards you gave me, all written in the secret language we created in middle school. And I loved you and you loved me, that's what friends are for—wiping each other's tears and simultaneously laughing hysterically over everything that went well and wrong with our lives and it's crazy how at the time, it was hard to imagine my life without you, and yet here I am and I haven't talked to you in months and I miss you dearly and hope that you are doing well, you and your boyfriend whom I have never met but hope to meet one day, if our paths align again.

[flowery-mess]

Noah taking Reader on a pumpkin patch date to take cute pictures and pick out pumpkins to carve after finding out her ex would refused to take her on one. Maybe when they get home he surprised her with a little pillow fort for them to watch movies in. Just ends with them ordering a bunch of food and watching scary movies/anime and cuddling 🥺💕

I remember dating my ex and he just absolutely refused to do any of those cute fun dates with me (later I found out he was cheating on me with multiple different girls and he was taking them on those cute dates but that's tea for another time 🫠🙃)

Posted!🧡

Oh babe what a dick! I think pumpkin patch dates are so cute! I'm really sad that it's not really a thing in my country🥲

But glad to hear that he's an ex now, bet his dick is small😊

Scout’s laughter bubbled over as Copper swiped paint across her cheek, the playful retaliation only caused her to love him more. “Oh, you’re going to pay for that!” she declared, already envisioning her revenge as she held Bodhi securely on her lap. But she didn't complain, the fact that he was willing to play meant that she was able to relax and be herself finally.

When he turned his attention to the pumpkins, she joined him, watching as he scrutinized each one with a thoughtful expression. “A smooth surface for Viktor, huh? Smart choice,” Scout replied, a hint of mischief dancing in her eyes. “I think he’d appreciate a little flattery before you paint him scary.” The sight of Copper deep in thought reminded her of her own creative process.

As he shared his college story, Scout felt a flicker of understanding spark between them. “Writing, huh? I went to school for art and design, believe it or not -- never really did anything with it.” she said, her voice genuine. "The problem with art -- and writing too, I think? in order to get better, you have to let people see it -- I only let a couple of people see what I would paint."

Scout shook her head, trying to chase away the bright memories of her past. She couldn’t shake the memory of the other night, the chaos, her desperation -- and the fact that she called Copper instead of blood-kin. Seeing Copper now, painting and laughing with Bodhi, made her all the more sure that she had made the right choice.

“Absolutely, you and Aris are more than welcome,” Scout said with a warm smile. “The inn will be festive for the holidays, I promise you that. And who knows, maybe Bodhi will be crawling by then.” She had been reading in all the parenting books about Bodhi's milestones -- and in two months, Bodhi will be eight months old.

She considered her pumpkin. She wanted to tip it over and hide what she had done. A nervous flutter danced in her stomach. “Okay, Uncle Coo, promise me you’ll be honest about it. Remember, I don't share what I paint.” Holding her breath, she revealed her artwork— a simple country scene with a red barn and a pumpkin patch -- with added flourishes by Bodhi, whom Scout had given a paintbrush. "Don't laugh but -- I used to do the paint alongs with Bob Ross sometimes when I was stressed. So I remembered how to paint this. Plus, I've been sketching a lot of flowers and stars and things so -- I think I've had those on my mind still."

When he felt the paint on his cheek, Copper paused, giving Scout a stern look. "You know," he said, trying (and sort of succeeding) to sound threatening, "if you weren't holding this adorable baby, you'd be in for it." Even with Scout holding the little girl, he was tempted to continue this way; Scout had started it, but Copper would finish it. A moment later though, Copper could no longer keep a straight face, and he immediately began to laugh. He dabbed a paintbrush into the paint and swiped it across Scout's cheek, lunging away before she could retaliate.

Scout was right about choosing a pumpkin, and Copper examined them all closely. "It's got to be one not too misshapen or bumpy," Copper said as he considered his choices, "unless you're going for something scary." Nearby he saw two men painting what might have been the most frightening pumpkins he had ever seen, and Copper shuddered; those two had gone too far. "I think I'm going to paint Viktor, so I'll need a smooth surface," he continued as he kept looking through the pumpkins. Finally he settled on one, and soon Copper and Scout were painting while the latter started telling him stories. Clearly art meant a lot to her, and Copper could relate, though not quite the same way. "That's sort of how it was with me only with writing," Copper replied. "That's what I went to college for - I don't think I've ever told you that before - and it was a nice outlet. Haven't written in awhile though." Copper acted like he couldn't remember when he'd stopped writing, but he knew exactly when he'd stopped.

It was sweet to see the way Scout was with Bodhi, especially considering the state that Copper had found them in the other night when he'd come over. Copper had known that Scout was just having a rough time, that she was a good mother, and it was nice to see that she seemed to believe that a little more. He nodded at Scout's comment, and Copper said, "Yeah, it was hard. It was. really hard. But it was also...necessary." That was even truer than Scout could ever know, but Copper couldn't bring himself to get into it; the only person in Cardinal Hill who knew was Aris. Smiling, Copper said, "Thank you, Scout. I might just take you up on that. Can my brother come too though?" Of course Copper would be spending the holidays with Aris, but there was no reason he couldn't do that with Scout and Bodhi at the Inn too. Looking at his pumpkin, Copper laughed, saying, "I don't think this is a very good likeness of Viktor, but...it's not the worst pumpkin I've seen tonight."

Falling in Love Writing Challenge

Challenge Masterlist

[chl0writes]

Bringing the Sarah characters to England.

Listen, I have NEVER written a headcanon in my life but I had a lot of fun! This is literally such a random idea I had but I couldn’t get it out of my brain so here we are. I hope you enjoy :)

Billie Dean Howard.

Billie Dean had travelled to London once before to film a special for her show.

She always talks about how amazing that trip was and how much she would love to return with you.

While you love living in LA, sometimes you find yourself feeling homesick. So when Billie Dean mentioned how much she enjoyed England, you just knew you had to fly home with her.

In London, you see all of the sights from Buckingham palace to the Tower Bridge.

You take bus tours and you take the boat to Greenwich.

Picnics in Hyde Park.

Listen, this lady cannot stand Primark. Far too rowdy and far to cheap for Billie Dean’s taste.

She will drag you around Harrod’s for hours.

She takes one look at the wetherspoons and it’s an immediate no. This is a lady of class, it’s dinner in The Shard or no dinner at all.

West End shows every night!

Billie Dean downs ginger shots from Pret like a PRO.

Lana Winters.

England wasn’t ever really a place that Lana had wanted to visit.

But, she soon changed her mind once she heard how passionately you spoke of your birthplace.

Lana had just published her fourth novel, and the idea of a long two month vacation seemed like the perfect way to celebrate and unwind.

You hire a car and you travel to different parts of the country.

You stay in London for the longest period of time as Lana enjoyed the culture and the diversity of the city.

You take her to as many quaint little book shops you can find and she falls in love with each and every one.

Seeing how much Lana enjoyed the city, you take her to places like Manchester and Liverpool.

She falls in love with Liverpool almost immediately!

The Beatles are one of Lana’s favourite bands so she particularly enjoys seeing all of the memorabilia and The Beatles themed pubs.

Lana’s next book would definitely be set in England.

Cordelia Goode.

Cordelia had always wanted to travel, but the coven and her supremacy kept her tied to New Orleans.

You have it all planned out, the girls are in on it. In October, the two of you would fly to England for her birthday.

You took the Supreme to York. She would love the sights and the scenery of Yorkshire, you were sure.

You went through the notorious ghost walks and she did not bat an eyelid. You on the other hand left clinging to the blonde for dear life.

Lunch in Public Gardens!

Driving out to pumpkin patches.

Is definitely disturbed by kebabs.

Cordelia spends hours picking out individual gifts for her girls. She wants to bring the coven here.

DESPISES the tales of the Pendle Witches.

Bette & Dot Tattler.

Bette jumped at the idea of travelling with you. Dot on the other hand, took quite some persuasion.

Big cities were a no-go for the twins, and growing up in a more secluded corner of England, you know the perfect place to take them.

The three of you were to spend the week in a log cabin in the countryside, far away from everybody.

Upon finding a cookbook, the twins practically made every single recipe in that book. It took several shopping trips but you were not complaining.

Every night ended by watching the sunset, and laying underneath the stars until the chill became too much.

Sally McKenna.

Being stuck in the Cortez, Sally can’t go anywhere.

There was not a chance in hell that you would travel that far away from Sally.

She is a complete sucker for your English accent.

She asks you so many questions about the places that you have been and the things that you have seen.

She could listen to you talk for hours.

Audrey Tindall.

The trip was pretty much inevitable considering you were both desperate to return to the UK.

What you don’t expect is to arrive and really impulsively buy a house in Sussex.

Did you both decide to uproot your life to England? Yes.

The first few months are complete chaos to be honest, but you expected nothing less.

Once settled, you did everything and anything you could. Theme parks, cinema trips and bowling.

Audrey LOVED the beach, so trips to places like Brighton and Blackpool were frequent.

You ate at all of your favourite restaurants and shopped in all of your favourite shops. The ones they didn’t have in the states.

Ally Mayfair Richards.

While Ally isn’t plagued by phobias anymore, she still feared flying. Like, a lot. It took a while for her to come round to the idea of travelling so far away, but she eventually did.

Oz would come along with you both.

The hotel has a spa, if Ally disappeared, that’s where she would be.

Ally doesn’t understand why there are no plug sockets in the bathroom. It winds her up.

Would be glued to the television screen when Come Dine With Me came on the hotel television.

You took Ally and Oz to different pubs and restaurants and she was not impressed by the quality of the wine in said pubs.

Is deeply disturbed by beans on toast.

The pair of you would take Oz to theme parks and the beach.

Wilhemina Venable.

You just knew that Oxford was the most perfect place to take Wilhemina. So much history, so much art.

You hired a car as you didn’t want Mina to be in pain after hours of endless wandering.

You went over the winter, the weather was not great but it made it all the more cozy when you were both cooped up in a cafe with a book and a cup of tea.

The pair of you spent hours in museums and art galleries.

You could see Mina’s face light up as she admired the architecture of buildings that had to be centuries old.

Appalled by tesco meal deals.

She could not stand English television, it was a sort of humour that she could not seem to grasp.
