Cookie Jar

Pairing: Stardew Valley Harvey x Reader

Summary: You and Harvey come back from a friends wedding to get caught red handed in the cookie jar.

Warnings: mentions of choking.

A/N: Thank you all for the advice and support, I've learned a lot from y'all so here's a really fluffy one as my form of thanks!

Masterlist | Taglist | edited.

Imagine… you and Harvey are leaving town for a few days for your best friends wedding. Dressed to the nines and bags fully packed, you place your reluctant children for the weekend away with Evelyn and George.

Small tears stream down their faces and both of you debate of even attending the wedding at this point, your train comes in half an hour and yet here you are already at a crossroads.

Evelyn eventually convinces the kids to let go of your legs and bags with the promise of baking cookies at the community centre later in the day as you both slip out the door and into the cool morning air.

The weekend soon passes as you and Harvey are racing back home to see your kids and to check on the farm. It is reaching late at night, yet George's television program can be heard reverberating through the slightly open window as you knock on the door.

Your eldest opens the door, surprisingly with their height and tackles you both in a large hug, your youngest waddling themselves over to join the family picture. Any thoughts of scolding the children to opening the door to a potential stranger fly out your head as you feel their small hands play with your cheeks and smear your make-up.

In the meanwhile Harvey thanks Evelyn and George for their kindness as he picks of the children's bags alongside a large jar of cookies. He weighs the jar in his hand and sighs slightly, wondering how much sugar they must have had and how he'll explain to the dentist this time. But that was a problem for another day.

By the time you made it home and the kids were settled into bed after four stories and a visit from the dog. You softly close the door and rub your eyes, it had been a long few days. Turning to go downstairs you find your husband sneaking a cookie from the jar, already! Concealing your laughter in your hands you join him in the kitchen and steal a bit out of his cookie with dramatic effect.

His glasses slip down his nose as he stares blankly at you, you choke a little bit, trying to contain giggles and still chew at Harvey's dead-faced reaction as he wags his fingers, cookie in hand at you. Then helps to pat your back as you grab some tap water as you begin to choke. You both still dressed in your formal attire, just now with some crumbs as accents.

Yet what you both didn't realize was your eldest coming downstairs watching mom and dad chip away at their hard-work. With a creak of the wood on the last step, you and Harvey stopped like deer in headlights as you slowly craned your necks around the corner to see your eldest standing there. Hands on hips and wagging their finger in an all to familiar motion to that of your husband. You split the cookie again and moved the jar into a more secure location atop the fridge... though how long what that actually last in reality...

The deal, sneak peek chapter 8

"Alastor! I just want to talk!"

"Well, I do not! Haven't I made that clear?!"

The Devil grits his teeth. Over six millennia without bruxism and all it takes is one sinner to develop it. Great. Because Hell is full of dentists.

Oh... actually, yeah.

"Fuck... please," Lucifer hisses as he is about to vomit his own intestines. "It will just be a moment. What happened the other day..."

"There is nothing to talk about."

This is ridiculous to say the least. And tricky. A week after the kitchen incident, Lucifer chases Alastor —who doesn't even deign to look at him, to show his anger— through the hotel corridors to a seemingly random room. Both with his fists clenched, their powers increasingly on edge. It's hot in here, courtesy of the infernal flames. Lucifer's horns are out and his tail is whipping nonstop. There is a thunderous noise in the air, Alastor antlers have grown and his eyes have a black sclera.

A recipe for disaster. Especially when the Radio Demon opens a door leading to a parlor and realizes he's hit a dead end. After chasing him all week, Lucifer has finally cornered him.

The deer demon turns on his heels only to find, to his obvious horror, that the Devil is not about to leave the door frame.

What was it like? Fight or flight?

"Alastor, really" Lucifer sighs, as if forcing himself to ve civil, resignedly, as if Alastor were the one making things harder than necessary. The audacity! "I'm only as King for five minutes to talk about what happened the other day."

"No, thank you. Five minutes with you has already proved dire enough."

Yes, the Devil takes it personally. And the yellow sclerae turns red as he squints in his direction.

"Well, it didn't look like it." says, ready for a fight. "In fact, and from the way you were moaning, you seemed to be enjoying it quite a bit."

Are there any rooms in your house that you don’t go into every day? The third bedroom, the downstairs bathroom, the living room, and the basement.

Who else do you know who has the same favorite color as you do? I'm not sure, but I probably know someone with similar favorite colors/color schemes.

Have you ever kissed someone who has previously kissed someone you hated? No.

Do you have any relatives with red hair? Not that I'm aware of.

What is tomorrow’s weather forecasted to be like? It's supposed to be sunny with a high of 39*F. Also, we got that rain / snow last night and into this morning<3.

Have you ever known anyone who committed suicide? The father of one of my past partners was thought to have taken his own life.

What’s some of the worst pain you’ve ever felt? Migraines.

What’s your favorite kind of pasta? Like an actual dish? Maybe Italian shell casserole or mac & cheese. If we're just talking shapes, then shells, elbows, and spirals.

Would you rather a friend come over to your house or you go over there? Go over there. Even though it would mean traveling all the way to California.

Have you ever had rabies? No.

Do you know anyone who ever had to get a rabies shot? I don't think so.

Ever eaten deer? Duck? Squirrel? How about lamb? I've eaten deer and possibly lamb (my memory isn't clear on that one), and I would be willing to try duck or squirrel.

What is your favorite parody movie? I don't have a favorite, but I'm suddenly reminded of this Lord of the Rings parody that Jenni and I rented for a weekend cabin stay when we were tweens. We didn't realize it wasn't a very PG parody…

What is your least favorite ice cream flavor? I'm not a huge fan of plain vanilla. I like it in things like shakes and ice cream bars and such, but by itself it's kind of eh.

Does your car have heated seats? No, but my dad's does.

Have you ever been tempted to steal? Yeah, when I was young and dumb. Teenagers are legitimately stupid. <- This.

What is the age gap between you and your parents?

How many bathrooms does your house have? Is this enough? Three. Except the one in the master bedroom is no longer functional. It's just me and my dad living here, so it's plenty.

Do you collect anything, or have you ever? I used to collect Beanie Babies, as well as Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards.

When was the last time you used Facebook? The last time I had an active account was about a decade ago.

How many siblings does your best friend have? Zero.

Have you ever dated someone who was emotionally or mentally unstable? Yeah.

Be honest: are you clingy? I definitely used to be. I have more going on in my own life now, though, so I probably wouldn't be as suffocating as I was in the past.

Have you ever had bronchitis? No.

Have you ever had a reptile for a pet? No.

Are you afraid of the dentist? Not really, but I've still put off going for a long, long time.

Did you attend Sunday School as a child? Rarely.

Who was the last person you cuddled with? A past partner.

How would you feel if your significant other (or possible partner) told you they dislike having sex, but do so with you to make you happy, even though they personally think it’s a chore? I would prefer a partner who enjoyed intimacy as well.

Your boyfriend/girlfriend isn’t around but their phone is. Do you look through it? No.

Do you think you will be in a relationship 3 months from now? No.

Have you ever liked anyone that was in a relationship with someone else? Yeah. I've explained the situation before.

Do people ever compliment your eyes? Not very often, but it's probably happened at some point.

Have any of your exes ever given you roses? I think Michael did.

Do you think your last ex ever thinks about you? I have no idea. If they do, then it's probably not very often because that relationship ended years ago.

Would you rather have salad or french fries for a side dish? Depends on what I'm in the mood for at the time.

Which one of your relationships was the shortest? Michael or my most recent ex (we were very on again / off again, so even though the relationship "spanned" the longest stretch of time, the time we were actually together wasn't very long.)

Which was the longest? Nick.

Have any of your exes told you they regret breaking up with you? Not those exact words.

Would you feel hurt if your last ex is in a relationship? Last I knew, they were in a relationship. They were the last time we dated, too. It was a poly situation.

Are you going to be getting any new pets soon? No.

Do you like BBQ sauce? Yeah.

What do you like to do when you’re home alone? Make art, watch YouTube, take surveys. Pretty much the same things I would do if someone else was there.

Should the guy always pay for the date? No.

What kind of music calms you down? Meditation or soft classical music.

Do you know anyone who has autism? My best friend is on the spectrum.

What is your favorite way to eat eggs? Scrambled or over easy.

Do you like Frozen? I never saw it.

Who is one of your heroes? My dad.

Do you enjoy hot chocolate? Yes.

Do you use Instagram often? Yeah.

If you got a kitten, what would you name it? I'd have to actually see and interact with the kitten in order to name it.

Do you have a Pinterest account? No.

Do you prefer a quiet or noisy environment? A balance. The animal shelter can be a bit chaotic at times and it can be energizing to a point, but I also need quiet time to rejuvenate.

What is one question you don’t like being asked? Ugh.

Who is someone you know who is talkative? Liv.

When was the last time you saw one of your uncles? Probably childhood.

Do you know anyone who plays the violin? Riley used to. Idk if she still does.

Do your parents enjoy any of the things that you enjoy? Do you bond over these things? Yeah. My dad and I both enjoy hiking/camping. I also enjoy going to movies with my mom, but that's more of me tagging along for her interest than something we both enjoy independently. I wouldn't be much of a movie person at all if not for her.

Out of all your usernames for websites, which one is your favorite? Do you use it for more than one site? Idk.

Have you ever spent the whole day (or multiple days) just looking up one thing on the internet (e.g., videos of your favorite band, how-to videos, quizzes, etc.)? Oh sure.

If someone told you that we live in a society that hates women, how would you respond? I really don’t give a fuck to participate in bullshit like that, sorry. 🙃 <-Same. Except I'm not very outspoken, so I would pretend to agree while maintaining my own stance internally. :')

Can you remember the last thing you thought and subsequently thought, “wow, I really shouldn’t be thinking that”? Last night on the drive home. Almost sunk into the suicidal stew. Was weirdly sad / sensitive all day. Chocked it up to the fact that time of the month is approaching. Guess I have to amend a previous statement that my mood swings aren't that bad. ;D

Baby Teeth

I'm working on some fiction...

------------------------------------------------

I didn’t lose any of my baby teeth until I turned seven. My gums had ridges where the new teeth were trying to come up, pushing against their fleshy barricade. I remember running my tongue along them and counting them in my head during first and second grade. When I told my mom about them, that the number had increased “since last year,” she got mad. I should have lost all my teeth by now, she said. Why didn’t I tell her earlier, she said. Your father’s going to be furious, she said.

And he was. I remember the air thick with his disgust, knee bouncing in the waiting room of the dentist’s office. It was some day in the middle of the week, a Tuesday maybe. I remember because I was happy to get the day off from school. I can’t believe I have to take a vacation day for this, my dad said. He said it again to the dentist while I was getting x-rayed.

I remember the x-ray. The white pokes of teeth trying to worm their way up around the baby molars. It didn’t feel like that much hate could be held in my mouth. Some were sideways. Crooked. They were going to punch through the gums near-horizontal. My jaw would be a spiked bat of teeth that would rot without proper care.

The doctor said everything would be fine. He’d just have to pull them. I’d need braces for a long time. But everything would be fine.

My dad pulled me to the car angry and said he’d do it himself. Said there was no way he was paying that much for the teeth and the braces. Said there was no way. He kept saying that. There’s no way. Nuh uh. No way at all. And I thought about his greasy hands entering my mouth and wiggling at the teeth. Pushing them. Grabbing them and yanking.

As punishment he took me to mom’s work and I sat quiet in an office chair for the rest of the work day, playing with a staple remover, pretending it was a shark skimming across an empty office desk.

I remember that night I took an extra long shower. I sat under the hot water and counted the ridges on my gums. I thought about the x-ray and felt something twisting inside of my stomach. Looking in the mirror, I was just angry at my mouth. At my body. I don’t remember what I used, whether it was floss or the toothbrush, or if I just knuckled against a few teeth, but I got one to come out. There was some blood but I washed it down the sink. It hurt in a weird way. Like a rolling throb through the gums and into my skull. I did two or three more before the pain was too much, my gums red and raw and pounding. I remember showing them to my mom with a big smile and she looked at me with horror. Like the time she hit a deer on the way home from daycare and screamed that horrible scream. She took the teeth from me and made a phone call.

The next day she took me to the same dentist, he pinched a needle into my mouth, and then he went to work. With a wrench or pliers or something. Grabbing and pulling. Twisting. I remember the sounds they made as they cracked. I remember the sounds the teeth made as they were ripped from my mouth. I’d make the noise for you if I could.

Mom and dad yelled that night. And a few nights after. I had a few more dentist visits, a few more pinches of numbness, and then I had braces. They were pretty and I remember they made my mouth look like a beautiful spider web. Some days they ached. Well, most days they ached. But they’ll fix my teeth, my mom said. We’ll figure it out, she said. As long as you’re okay, we’ll figure the rest out.

Dad stayed late at work for two years, maybe more. He didn’t look at me very often. I remember one night he came into my room a few hours after I had been tucked in, and he smelled like grease and medicine. He sat on the edge of my bed and cried into his hands. I didn’t move a muscle.

I remember one day I was crawling around in the side yard, a stick in my hands, shouting orders over my shoulder at the rest of my platoon. We were at war. We were crawling through mud while bullets whizzed overhead. I was the leader and they would follow me anywhere. But we had to keep quiet ‘cause I wasn’t supposed to be in the side yard. It was a narrow slit of land between the house and property-line fence. The grass never got mowed ‘cause a mower couldn’t fit back there, so it was tall and scratchy and hot with summer humidity. I remember I wasn't supposed to go back there cause my dad got stung by a hornet one time when we first moved there. I wasn’t old enough to actually remember the move, in my mind we had always lived there, but the image of my dad’s hand and the nest he smashed with his boot is somewhere up there in my brain.

But I was crawling back there, feeling the chiggers nip at my bare legs, when something sharp poked me. It was white and speckled with blood. It was my tooth. One of the ones I pulled from my mouth, I was certain. Above me was a window into the kitchen. I imagined my mom, or my dad, throwing them from the house like a cursed object. A sign of evil. I never told anyone that story before.

On my eleventh birthday we moved and a few of my dad’s friends came over to pull up the fence and my dad ran the mower on the side yard. The blades chipped and clanged against rocks making this awful, awful sound. It reminded me of the dentist’s office and the cracking of my teeth. The tearing of them out of my skull. I remember thinking that he was mowing over my teeth. A graveyard of teeth being turned into splinters.

I was glad the apartment we moved to didn’t have a side yard and I had no more teeth to lose.

Carry You: 1,747 Words

. Modern AU Crosshair and Omega hurt/comfort fic!

. Omega has been adopted, but only recently.

. When Crosshair gets in from work all he wants to do is go to bed, but his little sister seems to have other ideas.

. Also posted on AO3 (link in comments)

. Some swearing, you have been warned!

Crosshair flopped into the cushions of the sofa, trying not to groan as the weight was finally taken off of his feet. He had just finished his shift at the bar, on a day when the football was on and all he wanted to do was curl up in a ball and let sleep consume him for the next three days. Dealing with the bar’s usual clients was bad enough, but adding drunk sports fans into the mix… he barely suppressed a shudder as he thought of all of the things that he’d seen that evening.

He should probably go to bed, he thought absently as he leaned forward and started to unlace his black boots. At least if he was in bed he wouldn’t be disrupted when all of his brothers started going about their days. The only issue with that, in Crosshair’s mind at least, was that his bedroom was all the way upstairs, and he was not. And the sofa was fairly comfortable considering it had come third hand from a distant relative.

Making up his mind that he simply couldn’t be bothered to move upstairs he stretched out his legs in front of him, hissing as they ached from his shift. The others had always said he could do better than work in a bar, but he sort of enjoyed the buzz of the nightlife, even if it did mean that he had to work sporting events and deal with hen parties on the regular. Besides, what would he do instead? He wasn’t good for much else, or at least that’s what he told himself. Hunter would probably say otherwise, but Hunter had always been soft like that, especially since…

… creak.

The sound made his head shoot up from where it had been resting against the back of the sofa and he jumped out of his skin. He scowled, getting ready to berate whichever of his brothers appeared at the bottom of the stairs for ruining the peace and quiet, but was cut short when he saw exactly who was coming down the stairs.

‘Omega?’ he squinted in the dark, and sure enough the little girl stepped into the room swaddled in her duvet and looking a little pathetic.

‘Oh, hey Crosshair,’ she mumbled, looking like a deer caught in the headlights. ‘I didn’t realise anyone was down here, I…’ she trailed off a little helplessly and Crosshair noticed the way her eyes darted between him and the door to the kitchen. ‘I’ll just go back to bed,’ she turned around going to make her retreat and her brother rolled his eyes before standing. So much for peace and quiet.

‘Sit down,’ he chided her and she looked up at him, her eyes wide with surprise.

‘You’re sure? I don’t want to bother you…’ The little girl was already heading towards the sofa despite her comments about going back to bed.

‘Are you after water?’ He ignored her comment, deciding to instead make himself useful. Looking over at her slight frame he spotted the dark circles under her eyes, tinged with red and looking a little on the damp side. She’d been crying. Again.

A minuscule nod from her told him all he needed to know, and he headed out into the kitchen to grab a glass of water.

It wasn’t that Crosshair didn’t like Omega; truth be told, he adored the girl and would do anything for her, just as his brothers would. Rescuing her from her vile mother had consumed so much of their time in the past few months, and there had been times when it had looked as though they were fighting and losing a custody battle. Omega had been determined to stay with her half-brothers, and the sobs of relief that had left her when full time custody had been confirmed reduced the rest of their family to tears as well. He was just… wary of her at times. When she was upset she could be a loose canon. He had learnt this the hard way when she had needed to go to the dentist and had barricaded herself in her room, screaming and sobbing and begging Hunter not to take her there.

He worried for her at times. The things she spoke of when she was discussing her past sent chill down his spine and made him want to go and give Nala Se a piece of his mind. How could someone abuse a child, especially a girl like Omega, who was so happy and positive (well, most of the time anyway). She loved fiercely and had settled into the family well, breaking down Crosshair’s well constructed armour to protect him from being hurt.

‘I thought you were supposed to be going to Cut’s tonight,’ he commented offhandedly as he brought the glass into the room and set it down in front of his sister. She remained quiet for some time, sipping the water cautiously. Crosshair resisted the urge to sigh; he was exhausted and all he wanted to do was sleep off a long night’s work. Pulling himself together and summoning all of his patience, he perched on the sofa next to the little girl, waiting for her be ready to talk.

What felt like an age passed, and Crosshair was beginning to think that maybe Omega had dozed off, when her shaking voice cut through the silence.

‘I…I didn’t want to have another nightmare and not be at home,’ she stammered, and when her brother looked at her he could see her eyes glistening with unshed tears once more. ‘Hunter spoke to Cut and he said it was fine, but I didn’t want to scare my friends…’ she snivelled, looking ashamed and embarrassed. Crosshair paused, trying to summon the right thing to say, but his mind kept coming up blank.

‘What sort of ten year old is scared of spending time away from her brothers in case she has a nightmare?!’ Clearly Omega was not done talking, and the frustration in her tone hinted that she was more upset by this than she had originally expressed. She glared as she spoke. ’Why did Nala Se have to fuck me up so much that I can’t have a normal life and do things that kids my age do, I…’ She trailed off, her anger making it difficult for her to find the right words. Her fists were clenched and frustrated tears were streaming down her cheeks. ‘What she did hurt me. It was wrong, and I’m so… so angry.’

As if saying it solved her problems, the anger was suddenly sapped out of her along with most of her energy. Crosshair swooped in just in time to grab the glass from her hands as it slipped and he placed it on the table before kneeling in front of his sister. She flopped into him, leaning her head into his shoulder and sobbing, though her cries were quiet, subdued almost. All Crosshair could do in this moment was hold her, rubbing soothing circles on her back in the same way Hunter would. When she eventually calmed down and sat up again, she looked exhausted. Her brother lifted her under her armpits and settled her back on the sofa properly, tucking her duvet around her.

‘I have an idea,’ he said and stood, trying not to hiss as his muscles screamed at him to stop for the day and rest. He disappeared into the kitchen and rummaged around, knowing exactly what he was looking for… aha! A bag of sweet popcorn tumbled out of the cupboard. Not thinking much about what time it was, he poured a substantial amount into a bowl and re-entered the living room carrying it. Omega looked up from her cocoon, a slightly confused expression on her face.

‘Don’t tell Hunter,’ he winked subtly at her with a small smile on his face. Turning the TV on, he set up his Netflix account and scrolled through until he found what he was looking for. Omega watching this, her interest piqued; she never got to watch TV with Crosshair because of his work schedule so this was rare for them and she was interested in what he was going to put on.

Eventually Crosshair pressed play on a show and sat back in his seat, placing the bowl of popcorn between himself and his little sister. Omega squinted at the screen and read the title of the show out loud.

‘She-ra?’ she questioned, wrinkling her nose. ‘What is this?’ Crosshair had the energy left in him to pretend to look offended, making her laugh a little. ‘Yes, She-ra,’ he replied. ‘This is a re-make though, it came out a couple of years ago. It’s a work of art and I won’t put up with you suggesting otherwise.’ Omega giggled, nodding at that and before long the pair of them were absorbed in the programme and eating popcorn. Crosshair looked down at his little sister. Her cheeks were still tear-stained and her eyes were puffy from crying but she seemed to be enjoying herself now.

As if reading his mind, Omega shuffled in her seat so that she was closer to him, and in a fairly clumsy motion shifted so that the duvet that she had been wrapped in was over his legs as well as hers.

‘Thanks for helping me feel better, Cross,’ she mumbled sleepily as she nestled herself into his side, giving him no choice but to put his arm around her. He gave her shoulders a gentle squeeze before relaxing and curling his legs up underneath him.

‘No worries, kid.’

————

The following morning, Wrecker had come bounding down the stairs and into the living room, only to halt suddenly. Echo had nearly walked into the back of him and went to scold him, but was cut off by a frantic ‘Shush!’

There in front of them, curled up on the sofa was Omega and Crosshair, still in his work clothes and his boots discarded on the floor. The TV was quietly babbling away in the background as they slept and Echo noted with a level of exasperation that his popcorn had been opened last night. Ah well, it was clearly for a good cause. Wrecker snapped a picture on his phone and posted it in the family chat.

Clearly Omega had managed to have the sleepover she had wanted after all, even if it was with her brother and not her school friends.

Sometimes i think about the elf that wanted to be a dentist instead of being a toy maker in the Rudolph the red nosed rain deer movie

are there dentist in the north pole? if so who are the dentist if not the elf's? do elf's need dental treatment? if not does Santa need it since he's human and all but he's also magical and shit so does he need it too?

the many things i think about that are useless in the real life world

🔑 Plaman Titallicol

Report '...not going to lie I'm running out of names.'

He is a large sapient fire dragon. He has a long muscular torso, two massive wings, two fairly large arms, two large digitigrade legs and a very long flexible tail. He has five digits on each wing. The webbing on his wing fingers is slightly leaf-shaped, and his wing fingers are not connected to each-other. His wing digits are rather thick and all of his wing digits are tipped with fairly thin, slightly curved claws. His wing arms and wing fingers are all quite long, and his wing thumbs and first wing fingers are very similar in length. His wings are each 128 feet long. His arms are rather muscular and slightly shorter than his legs, and his hands are vaguely human-like, but they are thinner and he only has three fingers on each hand, with opposable thumbs. His fingers are tipped with fairly small, sharp claws. He has very muscular legs, and he has three rather long toes on each foot, with small dewclaws on the inside of his ankles. The claws on his inner toes are large, pointed and sickle-like, and the claws on the rest of his toes are straighter and slightly shorter. His tail is fairly thick and tapers to an extremely thin rounded tip. The lower half of his tail has multiple large bright orange fins that get smaller as they get closer to the middle of his tail.(not the end?) These fins are in two rows, one on the topside of his tail and one on the bottomside of his tail. All of his tail fins have long thin tendrils on the tips of their supportive structures. The fins near the end of his tail are 9 feet long, not including the tendrils, which are 5 feet long at their longest. The bottomside of his tail has five fins and the topside of his tail has six fins. He also has a small rounded fin on the top of his tail, near his hips. This fin is also bright orange, but it does not have tendrils.(Why this many fins? Either he's built for flying better or swimming better)

Plaman's tail is 58 feet long, not including the fins on his tail. His body is 60 feet long. His neck is 15 feet long, and his head is 4 feet long. His arms are 16 feet long, not including his hands, and his legs are 30 feet long, not including his feet. His front teeth are fairly large, semi-conical and curve backwards slightly, while his back teeth are rather small and conical.(most dragon skeletons dont have teeth like that. Or at least the ones ive seen. The ones ive seen have canine like teeth.) All of his teeth are fully exposed (all the better for dentist. Do dragons have dentists?). His tongue is long and fairly thin. He has two rather large bright orange eyes, two rather large nostrils and two small skin-covered earholes, as well as two large black horns above his ears. His horns somewhat resemble Impala horns(no Private its not a deer. And Paradox stop calling them Elk Light.) and they face backwards (question. Do they continually grow? Or what?). The tops of his horns have a row of small, sharp spikes. He has two 3 foot long frills of bright red, orange and yellow skin behind his head. These frills are folded flat against his neck when they are not opened up. His skin is mostly covered in tough scales. His scales are mostly dark red, but the scales on the underside of his neck and torso are a lighter shade of red. The scales on his tail are dark red with thin, deep burgundy stripes down its entire length(turns out the one we found that we ran tests on was from a different dragon. A much younger dragon). He also has large, black, symmetrical osteoderms on the fronts of his wing forearms, his arms and on his back. These osteoderms partially resemble shards of obsidian(thankfully only in looks). The osteoderms on his wing forearms are at their shortest near his elbows and near his wrists while the osteoderms between his wing wrists and wing elbows are quite long and point towards his wrists. The inner sides of his wings are mostly a dark orange color. He has thin glowing fiery orange stripes on the undersides of his wing arms, on the underside of his wing fingers and on the underside of his neck and chest. These stripes contain small, highly specialized glands that produce highly flammable, highly explosive bright orange gasses. (Reminds me of a dragon type known as the 'False' Drakes of my old home.)

He's 40 years old. He is quite intelligent, and he speaks English, Latin and some ancient draconic tongues. He has a moderately short temper, and he will become very aggressive if he feels threatened. Plaman can spit globs of highly explosive, highly flammable organic napalm from his mouth(i know a guy who sweats nitroglycerin...it hurts when he punches you this seems similar somehow. Like explosive bodily fluids is that common in the omniverse?-Bun), and he can also spray superheated orange fire from his mouth and spit fireballs. His skin is highly resilient to fire, explosions and magma (well duh? Hes a fire dragon). He can bite with impressive force, and he can also slice through solid steel with his sickle claws and create explosive clouds by flapping his wings (unless he did somethingto the gas or used magic that shouldn't work). Despite his temper, he is actually quite friendly around people he knows. He is also married to a human woman named Elise. Although Plaman and Elise's relationship is purely romantic due to the drastic size difference between them. Plaman is still violently protective of her (no. I will not explain what happened to the fool who attacked her. I saw and no. You do not want to know.) Plaman is a very fast runner, a very fast flier and a decently good climber. (Okay. Flying for long times not swimming/diving.) He can walk and run both bipedally and quadrupedally. When walking and running quadrupedally, he will close his wings up and use his wings as front legs.

02.

New tats in your near future?

Hopefully next year. Been waiting to do the one in memory of my Nan for almost five years.

How about piercings or re-piercings?

No.

Are there any rooms in your house that you don’t go into every day?

I live in a studio apartment. I don't have the luxury of extra, unused space.

Who else do you know who has the same favorite color as you do?

I believe my nephew does.

Have you ever had a tattoo covered up or added to?

No. I don't believe in doing that, personally. I use tattoos as a means of expression and a marker of time. They each mean something and I don't regret them at all. I don't care what anyone thinks about it.

Have you ever kissed someone who has previously kissed someone you hated?

Yeah.

Do you have any relatives with red hair?

Not that I can think of.

What is tomorrow’s weather forecasted to be like?

I haven't checked. I don't have a reason to care.

Have you ever known anyone who committed suicide?

Yes.

What’s some of the worst pain you’ve ever felt?

Losing my Nan. I've not been the same since. My last breakup, also.

What’s your favorite kind of pasta?

Mac and cheese. Homemade. Not the boxed stuff.

Would you rather a friend come over to your house or you go over there?

Come to mine. I'm disabled and a lot of places aren't accessible or easy to navigate if I need to go to the bathroom and such. It's usually impossible for me to go to theirs, especially if they have stairs to their place and no elevators.

Have you ever had rabies?

No.

Do you know anyone who ever had to get a rabies shot?

I don't think so.

Ever eaten deer? Duck? Squirrel? How about lamb?

Deer and lamb.

What is your favorite parody movie?

I don't have one that I can think of.

What is your least favorite ice cream flavor?

I'm not a huge fan of ice cream to begin with. I really have to be craving it to eat it. I really don't like anything caramel or pecan flavored.

Does your car have heated seats?

I can't drive and don't own a car.

Have you ever been tempted to steal?

No. I've had things stolen from me and it feels like shit. I have no desire to partake in doing it.

Would you rather travel to Ireland or Japan?

Ireland, but I wouldn't turn down either. I'd love to travel pretty much everywhere.

Does tickling turn you on?

Not particularly.

If you could go over to someone’s house right now, whose and why?

My best friend who just lost her nephew to cancer. I feel so awful I'm stuck here and can't just drop everything and go support and be there for her right now.

What is the age gap between you and your parents?

Who cares?

How many bathrooms does your house have? Is this enough?

One. It's enough.

Have you ever video-chatted with someone you met online?

Yeah, many times. I wouldn't continue to invest time and energy into the friendship/relationship if we didn't.

Do you collect anything, or have you ever?

Not really.

When was the last time you used Facebook?

I use the messenger as I don't have a cell, but I don't post or check Facebook itself really at all.

How many siblings does your best friend have?

They each have two.

Have you ever dated someone who was emotionally or mentally unstable?

Yeah.

Be honest: are you clingy?

Yeah, but not in a bad way. I'm just really affectionate and expressive with my feelings if I fully trust and deeply care about someone. I don't see the point of being with someone if I don't show them I care and put in effort and check on them and ask how they're doing etc. Doesn't mean I have to be in contact with you every single second of the day and you can't have your interests and time and things going on outside of being with me. I'd be pretty concerned if you didn't, tbh.

Have you ever had bronchitis?

No.

Have you ever had a reptile for a pet?

No.

Are you afraid of the dentist?

No, but I'm long overdue for an appointment.

Did you attend Sunday School as a child?

Unfortunately.

Who was the last person you cuddled with?

It wasn't a person, it was my cat.

How would you feel if your significant other (or possible partner) told you they dislike having sex, but do so with you to make you happy, even though they personally think it’s a chore?

I mean, I love and crave sex and intimacy often. We've had to navigate having different drives since gf got really sick and was hospitalized for a long time and almost died, but I do my best to be patient and understanding and we've worked through that. It's not something I want to leave her over because I love her beyond physical connection, but if she outright told me she didn't enjoy those things with me anymore at all/didn't want to touch me/saw it as a complete chore, that would deeply hurt my feelings. I'd probably end the relationship at that point because it's not the most important part, but it's still important to me. If we can't compromise and communicate and it's just one person giving up something to stay together, it's gonna lead to resentment and I wouldn't want to keep her somewhere where it's not working. At that point I'd have to let her go and potentially find something that is better suited to her needs.

Your boyfriend/girlfriend isn’t around but their phone is. Do you look through it?

No. I don't believe in doing that. If something shady is going on its eventually gonna come out. I'm not going looking for reasons not to trust you. Pretty much a self fulfilling prophecy.

Do you think you will be in a relationship 3 months from now?

I hope to be, yes.

Have you ever liked anyone that was in a relationship with someone else?

I mean, our relationship now is open. I'm not with someone else currently, but gf has one other partner. So I guess so?

Do people ever compliment your eyes?

No. I have eye issues related to my disability that I'm incredibly self conscious about. I've gotten made fun of over it all my life. Nobody compliments my eyes.

Have any of your exes ever given you roses?

I've never been given flowers at all.

Do you think your last ex ever thinks about you?

My last ex is my current girlfriend, so I would say so.

Would you rather have salad or french fries for a side dish?

Depends on the day and what else I'm eating.

Which one of your relationships was the shortest?

The short ones don't even count anymore or mean anything to me as an adult. The only real relationships I count are the times with my current partner.

Which was the longest?

This one.

Have any of your exes told you they regret breaking up with you?

We got back together, so yes. Would not have happened without her contacting me and apologizing and actually proving herself.

Would you feel hurt if your last ex is in a relationship?

They are. It's an open situation. If they went and got other partners on top of the one I'm aware of and didn't follow the parameters we have set and communicate with me, then yeah I would be extremely upset and probably break up over that.

Are you going to be getting any new pets soon?

I wanted a second cat, but then I found out I have to move in the spring and my brother told me I'm not ever allowed any other animals, so that's not happening now :(

Do you like BBQ sauce?

Yeah, occasionally.

What do you like to do when you’re home alone?

Sing passionately into a hairbrush, dance around in my underwear.

Should the guy always pay for the date?

The person who asked the other out on a date should pay, unless y'all have an agreement to go dutch or have come to some other understanding beforehand.

What kind of music calms you down?

Mellow, sad music.

Do you know anyone who has autism?

Yes.

What is your favorite way to eat eggs?

Scrambled or fried on toast with cheese.

Do you like Frozen?

I never watched it.

Who is one of your heroes?

I have people I deeply appreciate or whom/whose work I admire a lot, but I wouldn't say I have heroes. We're all flawed human beings who make mistakes and fall short somehow. Nobody should be put on a pedestal too much.

Do you enjoy hot chocolate?

Not really at all, actually.

Do you use Instagram often?

No.

If you got a kitten, what would you name it?

She's not a kitten anymore, she's almost a year and a half, but I named her Nippy. Most people who don't know the backstory just assume I chose it because she was super bitey as a youngling, (still hasn't fully grown out of it) but I didn't. My favorite vocalist of all time is Whitney Houston, and it's well known that her nickname was Nippy. So I named her after her. She also gets called Whitney when she's in trouble or being extra dramatic and princess-y, which is pretty much every day. 😂 She also has a middle name that's a tribute to my Nan, as I was having an extremely hard time coping with the grief of losing her at the time I found and took the cat. So she's technically Nippy Jean/Whitney Jean. She's an extremely vocal cat too and often meows along when I'm singing, so the name suits her on multiple fronts.

Do you have a Pinterest account?

I think I made one a long time ago, but I don't use it.

Do you prefer a quiet or noisy environment?

Quiet.

What is one question you don’t like being asked?

"Can you have sex?" when I'm first getting to know someone/on a date and they see I'm disabled. I absolutely can. But it puts me off that person very quickly. Just because I can doesn't even mean we would be sexually compatible in the end. Same goes for two able bodied people. Like? Get to know me first ffs. Unless I've explicitly stated I wanna hook up with no strings, in which case you would know the answer to that question from jump, then that's not what I'm looking for and not necessarily important within the first few minutes or days of knowing someone.

Who is someone you know who is talkative?

Me and my friends are all pretty reserved and quiet, but that changes 100% once we're with each other.

When was the last time you saw one of your uncles?

At a summer BBQ.

Do you know anyone who plays the violin?

My grandfather played very well.

Do your parents enjoy any of the things that you enjoy? Do you bond over these things?

My mum doesn't care about anything I care about at all and won't show any genuine interest unless it's something that's important to her or has some mutual benefit to her. I hardly see or talk to my dad since his move and the fact that he's constantly driving for work. I try to call him once a week to check in, but it's pretty surface level conversation. We don't get a chance to do a lot together or develop mutual hobbies or interests.

Out of all your usernames for websites, which one is your favorite? Do you use it for more than one site?

I thought this one was pretty funny/clever. Walkin after midnight is one of my favorite Patsy Cline songs, but I can't walk, so wheelin-after-midnight was born.

Have you ever spent the whole day (or multiple days) just looking up one thing on the internet (e.g., videos of your favorite band, how-to videos, quizzes, etc.)?

Not the whole day, but a good chunk of it.

If someone told you that we live in a society that hates women, how would you respond?

I mean, we kinda do...

Can you remember the last thing you thought and subsequently thought, “wow, I really shouldn’t be thinking that”?

I don't know. I usually stand by the things I think and there's reasons for those thoughts.
