Yan Mahito x GN Reader.

Synopsis: Mahito wants to farm.

Warnings: Yandere themes, kidnapping, Mahito as his own warning, implied minor character death, and implications of violence/forced cannibalism.

Word Count: 800.

*~*~*~*

“Sounds fun! Looks so too!”

Mahito’s fingers tap and tap on the glass, unsurprisingly never leaving any fingerprints or smudges. He is a curse, after all. It makes sense. Not that you have to be reminded of such, with how little he knows of human culture, the world at large, or with how much he shapeshifts into a disembodied head at night to scare half-awake you. 

You are both sitting on a giant bean bag in the shape of a green slime of all things that Mahito brought in an hour or so earlier. Mahito, as expected, takes up most of it with a malformed arm wrapped around your shoulders and back. 

In your hands is a Nintendo Switch, the sticker case on the joycons, and the screen itself somewhat peeling off, but still the pink bunny and strawberry drawing designs stay intact.

The YouTube app is on, showing a playthrough of Stardew Valley. This part of the sewers had two bars of wifi from the little ramen place above it, something you are grateful for in some aspect. Because of it, you have one more piece of entertainment that is now Mahito bringing you back stale snacks and stuffed animals (that you pray to whatever higher power that they were not alive before Mahito got his hands on them) and nearly smothering you with hugs. 

This is calming. When you just read the dialogue of the characters and listen to the music and pay attention to the satisfying sight of the farmer planting pumpkin seeds and apple tree saplings, it is calming, you are calm, Mahito is, at least partially, calm.

Mahito wanted something to watch today and brought the Nintendo Switch for you to play with as he simply observes. It could be worse, you reminded yourself before you attempted to protest, stopping yourself. It could be much worse. He could turn you into the Nintendo Switch, or much, much worse.

It can be so much worse. He can be so much worse. Your life as a captive can be so much worse. Everything can be so much worse. That is a line you never want to cross because everything can be so, so much worse than it already is.

Mahito raises his free hand, and you pause the video, just as you were taught to. He then points again at the field of two-dimensional, square-like crops all in multiple rows of hoed soil. 

It’s springtime in the game, you think, from how the cherry trees have pink blossoms and petals falling onto nearby ground all around it.

Mahito counts with his fingertip, jumping from one plant to the next and then from one row to the next.

He whistles, and it makes you flinch because that is the same noise he makes whenever you scream, a reaction to when he brings a body part of someone you loved here, throwing it down beside the small dog bed you were given for good behavior, the blood staining the fabric as it falls with a grotesque, sort of plopping sound.

If Mahito wants to grow vegetables and fruit in the few places this sewer has sunlight, he can be your guest.

“Potato, cauliflower, garlic… green beans, kale, parsnips, rhubarb, strawberries…” He says each word like he has never heard of them before. Considering he has never really set foot in a grocery or convenience store for anything other than chips, it is not all that surprising. With another wave of his hand, you rewind it to the moment where the farmer character starts watering the seeds when they are freshly planted. He waits. So do you. “Sounds good! We can make some cheese cauliflower, parsnip soup, pizza, hashbrowns… just imagine it! Yum… I can just picture it now.”

With yet another wave of his hand, you stand up and so does he. Relief goes through you, like a ghost, both horrifying you and making you feel the smallest bit of hope that for once Mahito can act normal.

…

“M-Mahito, vegetables don’t grow that fast.” You say, looking down at the plate of baked fish with what smells like kale and garlic underneath, along with lemon and salt. “H-How-”

“It’s simply the power of love!” Mahito exclaims, inhaling loudly to smell the dish in front of you two. He sighs softly. “A pure demonstration of my love, all I do for you, and all I will do for you in the future.”

You could have sworn that there was the smallest voice from the fish if Mahito’s bragging of how much work went into making you a dish from Stardew Valley was not so loud.

Help me.

“Dig in, cutie!”

You would do anything for Mahito’s grin to not turn into a frown, so you pick up your fork with trembling, scarred hands.

Some assembly required:

If you wrap knish dough around babybel cheeses and bake about 10 minutes 400F convection, it comes out really crispy outside and creamy inside.

Dough:

3 cups flour

2 TBS Sugar

1 tsp salt

1/2 cup oil

1 cup hot water

Knead until glossy and smooth, cover and let rest 2 hours.

Stretch translucent thin and wrap around a filling. If wrapping multiple layers, brush w oil between layers.

Behold: Babybuns!

How to be Coquette in Spring 🐣🌸

How to be the girliest, coquette forest fairy, in bloom for the Spring season 🍃🧚‍♀️💌

Wake up early every Spring morning. Everything is in bloom! Read a light hearted book in bed. Open your window to smell the fresh air and flowers if your lucky like me and live in the countryside! If your in a city, go for a walk! Have a shower, do your skincare and make a healthy, Spring breakfast. Maybe some fruit with all the fresh colors now the weather is warming up? 🍓���

Wear floral print everything! (Especially in Springtime) 🌷 Pick an airy, fairy light outfit. But make sure it’s still warm incase it gets chilly and there are any April showers 🌧 Some Coquette Spring clothing essentials are (milkmaid tops, Mary Janes, floral dresses, pretty skirts, cardigans, flower crowns, satchels, light-knit sweaters, crochet items 🎀)

School or work can be boring. But Spring makes everything better 💐 Walk to school/work if you can and listen to Lana. Make your notes look pretty with some pretty flower doodles, leaf drawings or add flower pressing to your school books/journals. Wear flowers in your hair to school, make daisy chains at break/lunch. Bring in some Spring treats for your friends to enjoy. Maybe buy a new floral backpack and add some pretty flower charms to it, also invest in some pastel highlighters/stationary for Spring. Put some Spring stickers on your headphones/water bottle🌼

Go on a picnic. This is literally the perfect time of year to as the weather is getting warmer. Take a pink, gingham picnic blanket with you and go and have fun! Take some pictures for Instagram and you could even decorate a pretty cake to bring with you 🎂

Do some Spring baking. Heart shaped cookies, cupcakes, pastel rice crispie nests, jam envelope’s, cherry pie, the list is endless. You could also bring these sweet treats on your picnic! 🍰💌

Have a tea party. By yourself or with friends. You could go vintage shopping for some beautiful china teacups/tea sets. Bake scones, but biscuits and pretty sweets like marshmallows, party rings, bon-bons and macaroons. Buy a selection of Tea’s and dress up elegantly. Decorate your table with a pink tablecloth and add pretty decorations all around. Wear silk, lacy gloves too, so you look like a Spring princess sipping her tea 🍵🎀

Do some flower pressing 🌸

Buy anything that is “ditsy floral” print and anything that is Bunny themed 🐰

Have a yellow, pink, cream, beige and baby blue wardrobe all throughout this time of year 💝

Go on long Spring walks. Even if you live in a city. You can take pretty photos and see wildlife as you walk ⛅️

Wear flowers or bows in your hair everyday to really emulate Spring through your outfits. Wether they be casual or classy at all times 🪷

Have a new Spring scent. There are so many floral scented perfumes, and you could correlate one for this season. Then whenever you smell that scent again, you will be reminded of Spring 🌷

Buy a pink raincoat and umbrella to splash in April shower puddles. Take some cute photos with them for Instagram and put a “rainy day” quote as the caption💦💗

Don’t forget to indulge in sweet treats. Especially because it has been Easter. Now winter comfort food is out the way, Spring is a very sweet and refreshing time of year. Treat yourself and venture out of your comfort zone with some yummy looking new pastries or sweets from another country. (I love Japan’s sweets soooo much!) 🍡

Make a new “Coquette Spring playlist” or just add mine to your library 😋 ⬇️🌸

Read light hearted novels or fantasy children’s hooks, outside on sunny days. 📖

Have a “Coquette Spring” movie marathon. Cinderella (2015), Marie Antionette, Tangled, Pride & Prejudice and A room with a view are all beautiful and visually aesthetically pleasing movies to watch this time of year 🌸

And that’s it! I hope you have the most beautiful Spring ever and have fun frolicking around in fresh, sweet meadows, in pretty silk dresses from morning till noon 🌷🐰

Maybe an alter or some alters related to the 4 seasons? Any level is fine, preferably level 3 or level 4, but you can pick whatever!

what a fun idea! apologies if it seems short, trying to do all four seasons took a long time and a lotta energy, so we had to park it here for our own sake -🌲

roles :: vernalian, companion

species :: personification of spring

gender identity :: springjenic,

orientation :: bisexual

source :: brainmade, spring season

aesthetic :: bohemian, beach bunny

appearance description :: prim and proper, angelica takes her time with her appearance to ensure it’s perfect on all accounts. her wardrobe is carefully crafted to appear both casual and chic at the same time without exerting any effort when choosing her daily wear. april curls her hair every night while she sleeps to ensure she’ll keep a natural-looking wave for the rest of the day. people often comment on fleur natural beauty and seemingly effortless style, and fleur just laughs; april knows how much time and effort she puts into her look, so it’s funny how people assume it’s easy. flor wardrobe is stuffed full of flower or leaf patterns and freely flowing clothes. the looser it is, the better it looks on flora! she wears nightgowns to sleep and curlers in her hair which has earned some gentle-hearted teasing from her fellow seasons, not that emilie minds all that much.

personality description :: melanie is like one of those aunts that people wish they had: attentive and positive in a non-sickening way, eager to hear about your day, and ensuring a few good moments of physical contact when interacting with someone to show their interest. she lives in a permanent state of bliss fostered by her “attitude of gratitude” and easygoing life. she is chatty and likes to strike up a good conversation with someone else. something good happen lately? earn a big promotion and want someone to tell? need to vent? melanie handles it all with a delicate touch, gentle and soothing like how a mother should be.

likes :: picnics, photography, gentle breezes, flower crowns and garlands, outdoor concerts, herbal flower tea (chamomile is her all-time favorite), antique shops, flea markets, farmer’s markets, things with a delicate or vintage aesthetic, outdoor activities, exploring those cute little rustic towns that are set up to look like the past with actors and all, hand embroidery, sewing patterns into fabric, making collages out of old photos and pictures she takes herself

dislikes :: excessive heat or excessive cold, dead flowers, withering plants, trapped or hurting animals, faux influencers (people who mimic her style for the sole purpose of “being aesthetic”; she finds it dishonest and distasteful), overconsumption and excess plastic waste from unnecessary spending (why buy five reusable cups when one will work just fine?)

front triggers :: springtime, gentle & calming aesthetics, the smell of older houses/clothing, being around people (such as children and older folk)

signoff :: 💐, 🌿, 🌱, or 🌷

mood board :: here

songs for you :: good luck babe! by chappell roan (was stuck in our head while writing up april), grow by conan grey, absolutely smitten by dodie, crush by tessa violet, she wants me (to be loved) by the happy fits, soulmate song by carson james argenna

kins :: elle woods from legally blonde

typing quirk? :: soft words, soft sounds, and soft tone, spring is the queen of run on sentences, she uses commas instead of periods and rarely capitalizes words that aren’t automatically corrected into being proper nouns

name :: averie, merida, cherri, cheerilee, bliss, marisol (sol), jubilee, sunny, joy, melody, harmony

age :: 17 to 21

pronouns :: she/her, pop/pops

roles :: confidence holder, mood booster

species :: personification of summer

gender identity :: summerestic, vallengender, strawberrymoona

orientation :: summer bisexual, polygamous / lovime

source :: brainmade, summer season

aesthetic :: coconut girl, urbancore

appearance description :: cherri wears bold, bright colors that make a splash no matter what kind of crowd she’s in. she opts for shorter shorts, mini tank tops, and sometimes things that’ll cover her arms and legs to protect the sun. cheerilee slathers her skin in sunscreen every day, giving her skin a sort of glow in the high hours of the afternoon. (and yes, she does use those tan stickers from the 2000s.) she keeps her hair up all the time in some way (ponytail, buns, pigtails) to help get her tan on. scrunchies, cute hair clips, bold earring choices, and sparkly necklaces are her favorite kind of jewelry, being incorporated in just about every outfit she wears so long as the mood is right. (obviously she won’t wear this sort of thing to a fancy event — even if she desperately wants to). jubilee is the kind of gal who would wear a ring pop unironically as a statement piece, and she’s so based for that.

personality description :: unapologetically herself, averie is the definition of a hot girl summer. she’s bright, beautiful, and positively glowing from the inside out, being both a force of nature and a ball of energy rolled up into one being. cherri has the uncanny ability to see the positive side of any situation, spreading her enthusiasm to everyone else through her signature infectious smile. she is known for her boundless energy and her tendency to keep things high-energy no matter the situation. her radiance touches everyone around her and inspires them to be the best version of themselves that they can be. jolene is never one to sit still for long. it's often a challenge for her to remain focused on one thing, as her mind seems to be constantly buzzing with new ideas and fun ideas.

likes :: sweet fruity drinks/cocktails especially the ones served in a cut-up pineapple or coconut, thrill rides, lively music, big crowds, going to live concerts, big bustling cities, live events, being outside in summer no matter how hot it is, going to the beach for any reason at all, tiktok dances, spontaneous trips, funny animal videos, being sent internet posts by friends that they think she’d find funny, wild and energetic people, playing sports, doing her nails, and busting a move at the nightclub

dislikes :: being stuck indoors, low sunlight, the cold, the dark, not being able to see the sun, going back to school, having to do copious amounts of work, depressing memories and sad movies, cloudy grey days (especially when it’s raining outside), shallow and judgmental people who assume things before getting to know a person, getting caught up in someone else’s relationship drama, chipping pops nail polish (so much effort wasted…), and crowds that just won’t get motivated over anything

front triggers :: summertime, heat waves, group events with a big venue, conventions, being at the beach, theme parks

signoff :: ☀️, 🍉, 🌻, or 🍒

mood board :: here

songs for you :: the last of the real ones by fall out boy, maybe by half•alive, i’d rather be me from the mean girls musical, the boy does nothing by alesha dixon, mr. blue sky by electric light orchestra, forbidden feeling by cg5

kins :: heat meiser from the year without santa claus, jenna roland from be more chill

typing quirk? :: so many!! exclamation marks!!! she gets SUPER excited very easily and capitalizes some words for EXAGGERATION!! girlie punctuates her sentences and uses a lot of “text speak” like lol, omg, etc.

name :: hawthorne, millie, bobby, cassiopeia (cass/cassie), camilla

age :: 10 to 13

pronouns :: she/her, they/them, e/er/ers

roles :: memori, front buddy, info manager

species :: personification of autumn

gender identity :: autumnic, rainyrooftopic, autumnnosic, corvautumnaesic, foliagic, fantasmookean, celafem

orientation :: sapphic, lith/akiosexual

source :: brainmade, autumn season

aesthetic :: Christian girl autumn, tweencore

appearance description :: cass can typically be seen wearing casual clothing that is vaguely nineties themed (specifically the nerdy reclusive girls of that time period or the pre-transformation of disney channel girls). e opts for long pants and a pullover or jacket that can be removed if the weather is warmer than normal. camilla prefers neutral colors along with shades of brown and green; the more natural they are, the better suited they are for eir wardrobe. the reason for their longer clothes is simple: they prefer spending time outdoors during autumn, watching the leaves fall from the trees and gather on the ground. keeping their wardrobe simple helps to reduce the amount of laundry they need to do — though it would be a lie to say that bobby doesn’t like laying on her warm laundry when it’s pulled from the dryer.

personality description :: reserved and not one to act first, instead choosing to think over her actions to be triply sure of what she wants to do. compared to the other seasons, she’s a total wallflower: speaking up in the midst of a heavy or intense situation is the opposite of what she’d ever be willing to do. hawthorn much prefers to leave her mark in others situations by providing gentle support for those who are lonely. one of the benefits of being the invisible one is being able to pull a whole bunch of small pranks without ever being suspected of it. (nice pranks, though. camilla doesn’t want to be cruel.)

likes :: halloween, spooky decorations, telling scary stories with friends, pumpkins, sweaters, curling up with a good book, warm tea, socializing with the stray cats that she seems to attract, snuggling on the couch, sitting in a comfortable chair (especially one that rocks, those are er favorite), watching movies both on her own time and with her friends and family, and consuming Halloween-themed media (it’s er favorite!)

dislikes :: too much heat, too much cold, being called a basic white girl for their love of pumpkin spice (it isn’t their fault pumpkin spice is the best flavor!), accidental cuts from pumpkin carving, being called “geeky”, relentless teasing over er interests, people who won’t listen, overly energetic people who can’t seem to settle down, being forced out of er comfort zone without any warning, disrupting er thoughts, when e says hi to someone and they don’t say hi back, hangnails, paper cuts, and people forcing er to change er plans for the day without warning

front triggers :: fall season, quiet rooms to herself, pumpkin spice drinks, and reading in a quiet library on one’s own

signoff :: 🍂, 🍁, 🥮, or 📔

mood board :: here

songs for you :: sinners by lauren aquilina, innocently annoying by elysewood, be calm by fun, ship in a bottle by fin, bad body double by imogen heap, rule #1 - magic by fish in a birdcage

kins :: rory gilmore from the gilmore girls

typing quirk? :: proper sentences with accurate punctuation. she types like your grandma who’s a stickler for punctuation would. does not use emojis, doesn’t like capital letters, and has to double check to ensure every word is spelled right.

art source here

name :: marquis, chione*, aneira, eirwen, eira, scylla, freya*, ice queen

age :: on the older side of twenty, almost hitting her thirties

pronouns :: she/her, hal/hael (haelself)

roles :: emotional guardian, absorber therapist (can take other people’s excess bad emotions and “freeze” it to be dealt with later or by another alter)

species :: personification of winter

gender identity :: winterfrost, winteress, yukinic, neigean,

orientation :: sapphic, sex repulsed

source :: brainmade, winter season

aesthetic :: winter fairy coquette

appearance description :: radiant and regal in both stature, appearance, and vibe. chione stands tall and elegant, her presence commanding attention with an air of regal authority. her skin glows with an ethereal, frosty radiance reminiscent of freshly fallen snow under moonlight. long, silvery-white hair cascades down her back shimmering like icicles in the sun, often adorned with delicate frost-like ornaments or put up in an ornately crafted hairstyle. her attire features intricate patterns of snowflakes and ice crystals. hael’s clothing of choice is both practical and elegant, combining flowing layered fabrics that flow freely in the air with more structured elements like frozen ice.

personality description :: marquis knows her own self worth and will accept nothing less than what she deserves. like a winter storm, she can be bitter cold to the people who treat her like garbage; freya know haels worth and refuses to tolerate disrespect. her demeanor can shift from serene calm to fierce intensity of a winter storm, especially towards those who wrong her. she embodies the dual nature of winter itself: beautiful but formidable. those who earn her favor will be granted access and safe passage through her headspace as well as protection from the everlasting freeze. beneath this icy exterior lies a heart that values kindness, loyalty, and protection. hael cherishes moments of warmth, finding joy in acts of giving and cozy candlelight in the cold.

likes :: snow, nipping cold, ice skating, the spirit of giving, candlelight, presents, making her opinion known, standing up for herself, having a say in matters, being seen as a kind and just person, being true to her morals no matter what happens, and ice carving (especially if she can be creative with it!)

dislikes :: being seen as evil or without a heart, excessive heat, people who wear their hearts on their sleeve (don’t they realize just how dangerous it is to do that? don’t they care about protecting themselves?), nosy people, being teased or mocked for her opinions

front triggers :: wintertime, bitter cold chills, ice skating, snowstorms, and christmas carols

signoff :: ❄️, 🌨️, 🧊, or ⛸️

mood board :: here

songs for you :: true north by vocal line, child of ashes by madds buckley, devil on my shoulder by faith marie, mirror mirror by juniper vale, aha! by imogen heap, a lady by tally hall

kins :: the winter spirit from frozen 2 (the original one, not elsa!), the ice queen from folklore and fairy tales

typing quirk? :: Similar to Fall, but capitalizes her sentences. She does use emojis — but they’re the autocorrect kind. 😅 At least she can get the point across. Can be a bit crisp and cold with people she views as potential threats.

[Chapter 4: Springtime Sun and Eggcellent Fun]

Cream and her mother Vanilla host an Easter egg hunt for all their friends. Shadow gets revenge on Rouge by making her go to the event.

Spring had arrived and brought about the blooming of flowers across the lands, dotting every wild plain with beautiful floral growths in all different colors under the healthy showers of early morning drizzles.

One bright, breezy Sunday, Cream the Rabbit ran out to a field of various blossoms near her house, intent on picking the prettiest ones. She frolicked excitedly with a small woven basket in-hand, her long ears bouncing about and her mouth pulled into a gleeful smile.

The wind was strong, blowing roughly against her orange dress and threatening the stability of her basket, but the girl was careful not to let the wicker container fall over once she'd dropped a few flowers into it.

The soft petals of each bloom she picked were large and splayed open to show off their different colors; blues and yellows and whites, all mixing together within the basket. But it wasn't just the flowers Cream was excited about!

She and her mother were planning a special event to celebrate the start of spring, and they'd invited all of their friends to attend a gathering at the same park where they had celebrated Lucky Clover Day one month before.

With the natural venue booked for their party, everyone would get to see the gorgeous flora of the park, freshly grown into its healthiest state. They would also get to participate in a festive egg hunt, which Cream thought would give their guests something fun to do.

When her basket was full, the young rabbit hopped up from the grassy ground and spun to face her house, holding her plucked treasures in both arms.

She ran back home before the next powerful gust of wind came, passing the doorway inside just before the heavy breeze slammed the door behind her.

Vanilla looked up from her project in surprise at the sound, her lips parting in a light startle – she was sitting in a plush brown recliner, hand-painting a yellow egg.

"Be careful with the door, dear," she said, her wavery voice polite as usual.

Cream responded, "Sorry, Mother!" and bounded farther into the living room.

She hurried over to a wooden table, which was stacked with dozens of flower crowns, and placed her basket on the edge. Soon, her blue Chao friend Cheese was fluttering over to her and chiming with excitement at the fresh supply of colorful blossoms.

"Are you ready to make more crowns, Cheese?" asked the brown-eyed bunny.

Eager to begin, they landed next to the basket and grabbed a flower by its stem, then held it out to her. "Chao! Chao!"

An hour later, the small family had finished their projects in preparation for the event, and began gathering up the supplies they would be bringing to the park.

The eggs Vanilla had painted sat in dozens within carton-sized boxes; she opened up a large trunk with plush cushion lining the inside and loaded it with the many boxes. Meanwhile, Cream and Cheese filled a large wicker basket with all of the flower crowns they'd made.

Nearby, waiting to be transported with everything else, were the bakery boxes of desserts they'd cooked up and a tall, neat stack of plastic handbaskets for guests to use during the egg hunt. Just as Vanilla closed the trunk, she heard a firm few knocks on the front door, and a smile grew as she turned to approach the entrance.

"Just in time!" she said, eagerly rushing to answer the door.

Standing just outside her home were the members of Team Chaotix, Vector the Crocodile grinning with his hands clasped behind his back. Espio and Charmy stood at his sides, waiting to be invited in while Vanilla greeted them.

Her kind voice spoke, "Good morning! Thank you, boys, so much for helping with this special celebration."

"Our pleasure, ma'am!" Vector blurted, walking into the house once the lady gestured for them to enter. "You know you can always call the Chaotix when you need help!"

Vanilla gave the three detectives direction on which items to grab for the event – Vector, being the strongest, carried the trunk full of eggs; Charmy picked up the stack of cheap buckets and flew behind his boss on their way out.

Espio gathered the boxes of baked goods, careful to balance them perfectly in his arms; and as Vanilla was picking up the big basket of flower crowns, she remembered one last item.

"Oh, Cream, dear – would you run into the kitchen and grab the gift basket?"

The young rabbit nodded and disappeared through a doorway, returning a moment later with a basket almost as tall as herself, wrapped in plastic and filled with various goodies.

The group of six filtered out the front door and went on their way to the park, making small talk and listening to the babyish singing of an excited Cheese.

***

In the downtown area of the city – streets and sidewalks mostly empty in the midst of a lazy Sunday morning – an early-risen Shadow visited Club Rouge, approaching the quiet building and scanning crimson eyes up the high-rise windows that lined the club's exterior.

He then looked down at the golden watch glittering on his wrist, checking the time. 'Hm, I wonder if she's even awake at this hour.'

With plenty of time to spare before her establishment would open, he figured the bat would stay in bed for as long as she feasibly could – getting her 'beauty sleep,' as he'd heard her claim before.

But Shadow wasn't considering Rouge's possible desire to rest, instead intent on bothering her the way she'd done to him the previous month. Locked doors wouldn't stop him from getting inside, the hedgehog using his Chaos Emerald to teleport up to the third floor, appearing below the hatch that led up into her lofted bedroom.

It would've been dark in the large, unlit room, were the uncovered windows not letting in natural light. The stoic lifeform stared up at the square of wood receding into the ceiling, painted light gray to blend with the plaster, and a sly smirk crossed his lips.

'She'll regret trying to order me around,' he thought smugly. 'Let's see how she likes a rude awakening.'

Shadow jumped straight up towards the hatch and slammed the side of his fist forcefully against the makeshift door before dropping back to the floor.

A heavy, jarring sound filled the silent air when the thick wood tried to open, only to be stopped by the lock on the other side. But it budged enough for the vindictive man to be satisfied with the noise, his smirk sticking.

Inside the attic-like room, Rouge was jolted awake by the sudden thud of her bedroom door being attacked. She sat up in a haze, half-lying on her mattress and looking around.

Discombobulated and feeling her heart rate spike from the startle, the messy-haired woman rubbed her eyes immediately before being frightened by another loud bang against the wooden entrance.

Confused and now on high-alert, she rushed out of bed and threw a white fluffy robe over her mulberry nightgown, keeping an eye on the bouncing hatch as it was struck a third time.

"Who's there?!" she exclaimed, making her voice harsh and hoping to be heard over the clunking.

Shadow's deep voice matched her volume through the door. "Wake up and let me in!"

For a second, Rouge was flabbergasted to hear her teammate on the other side of the disrespectful racket. Her fear disappeared and one corner of her unglossed lips pulled into a sneer. The hedgehog's tone was determined, but it didn't sound like whatever he was ruining her morning for was an emergency.

Frustrated, the jewel hunter scoffed loudly, stepped closer to the hatch, and replied, "Shadow, are you crazy?! It's way too early for all this noise!"

He ignored her response and slammed against the wood once more, shouting, "Open up!"

Exhausted by her friend's rudeness – but unfortunately unable to ignore him back – Rouge sighed and knelt on the hardwood floor near the metal lock.

She flipped it to unblock the hatch, then lifted the door enough to see Shadow standing on the carpet below. His smirk was gone, so he semi-glared up at her while the bat's mouth curved into a scowl.

Her brows furrowed and she scolded, "You'd better have a good reason for waking me up like this! I swear, if I have to ban you from my club..."

Rouge's sentence trailed off a moment before the assertive hedgehog jumped again, this time grabbing onto the side of the open entrance.

His expression didn't change, looking up through the square space and still not acknowledging her words; but the ivory lady's face switched to puzzlement as she was taken aback by his behavior.

She opened the hatch more, letting it flip over to rest on the loft's hardwood floor, then offered Shadow her bare hand while he hung from the ceiling. His free arm lifted to meet hers, wrapping gloved fingers around Rouge's wrist before she began pulling him up into the attic space.

"What's going on with you?" she asked, more accusatory than worried.

The Ultimate Lifeform's smirk returned as he climbed into the small area, gaining his footing while his companion reclosed the hatch. "I figured you would want to be informed about yet another of those "special events" you like to attend. And I had to make sure you were awake. Now that you are..."

He clapped his hands sarcastically and let more of a sly tone enter his voice, mimicking Rouge's typical sassy nature. "Get dressed."

She scoffed again – this time audible to her arrogant partner – and crossed her arms. "Is this revenge for the Clover Day thing? Sorry I dragged you there, okay; that was a month ago."

Shadow kept his ruby gaze on her while she walked back to the bed, amused at her annoyance. "Didn't you say you wanted to go to these things? More specifically, I remember you wanted me to get out more and be in attendance with you."

"We can skip this one," Rouge told him, tired as she slinked onto the mattress. "So don't worry about it – you're off the hook."

"You're not," he replied with a snicker, approaching while she pulled the blanket over herself. He continued talking at her back when she turned away from him. "You pestered me to make a promise, and I've honored my side of the bargain, even to my detriment."

The dark hedgehog's smirk grew wider to bare his teeth, his tone becoming sharper and his words more pettily vindictive; at the same time, he leaned over his irritated ally and put both hands on her arm, making it more difficult for her to tune him out. "Now you want to back out when it's inconvenient for you? I knew you were a double-crosser, but I won't let you get away with it that easily."

Rouge silently conceded that he had a point – and if anyone was going to make sure she kept her word, it was Shadow. She tried to fight the smile that pricked at the corners of her lips, the bat starting to see the humor in his chosen method, and listened to the man's argument.

"This deal goes both ways, unless you want me to consider it void altogether." A bit more seriousness crept into his cadence. "I can easily go back to the quiet life I had before."

"Alright, alright," the club owner finally spoke, sitting up as Shadow took a step back. She smirked at him while his expression dulled. "I see my persistence is rubbing off on you. Can't shame you for that, I guess!"

She hopped out of bed again and playfully added, "But this event better be worth it."

***

At the park, Team Chaotix helped Cream and Vanilla put together their festive setup, using the park table that sat underneath a gazebo to hold the desserts and plastic buckets.

They all grabbed cartons of the brightly-painted eggs and hid them in various places around the park, then regrouped beneath the gazebo. Cream, excited for the event to start, ran over to the basket filled with flower crowns and eagerly scooped up a handful of the carefully-crafted accessories.

"I made these for the guests to wear!" she said proudly, displaying the colorful rings of flowers and putting one on her own head. "There's enough for everyone – even you guys!"

Vanilla smiled at her gleeful daughter, claiming a crown for herself while Cream offered the sweet-smelling headbands to their helpers. Vector and Charmy accepted them without hesitation, but Espio calmly held up one hand when the young rabbit approached him.

"No, thank you," he spoke politely, though his tone did nothing to stop Cream's feelings from being hurt.

Her brows curved upwards and brown eyes glittered with worry. "What? You don't want one? But I made them for everybody."

"I assure you, I appreciate the gesture," answered the chameleon, trying to soothe her disappointment. "But I don't-"

"Espio!" Vector interrupted, butting in when he saw that Cream was disheartened from the rejection. "How could you not want a flower crown? These things are awesome!"

The crocodile pointed to the blossoms lining his forehead and grinned reassuringly at the kind girl. "I can tell there was a lot of love and care put into them! Plus, they smell really good!"

He elbowed Espio conspicuously, almost knocking him over; and when the stealthy gentleman regained his balance, he saw Cream staring at him with a small, hopeful smile.

Her eyes still sparkled, brows still upturned, as if she was pleading with him to accept the crown hanging from her hands. He did – thanks to the blatant nudge from his boss – and watched the rabbit's face light up when he laid it atop his head.

She and Cheese both chattered with elation about how much fun their event was going to be, frolicking away from the two detectives. Vector gave his teammate a thumbs-up, then glanced over at Vanilla to see her smiling at him, as if showing gratitude for making her daughter happy.

The sight made him blush and silently pat himself on the back for impressing her, meanwhile Espio slowly shook his head at the reptile's behavior.

Soon after, Sonic and his friends arrived at the park, finding the group of six at the gazebo and walking over to greet them. They all exchanged pleasantries and chatted briefly about the heavy breeze that chilled the air whenever a strong gust blew past.

Every now and then, the trees and bushes surrounding the park fluttered and flowed with the chilly wind, newly-bloomed wildflowers swaying about all around them.

Other people began filtering in for the event, meeting with the hostesses and steadily occupying the space around the gazebo; everyone received a flower crown from Cream and Cheese, who made sure that no one was missing the beloved accessories.

Vanilla also opened up the boxes of desserts so the guests could snack as they pleased, earnestly thanking them all for attending and periodically mentioning the egg hunt.

Shadow and Rouge made their appearance as unexpected guests, showing up after a decently-sized crowd of other attendees had filled the area surrounding the gazebo.

As they stepped steadily closer to the festivities, the night-loving bat squinted up at the sky and raised one hand over her eyes. "Ugh, the sun is even brighter this time around – and I am not rested enough to tolerate it."

She whipped out a pair of sunglasses, prepared to block the glaring rays, and slipped them onto her face. "Ahh, so much better. All that light makes my eyes sting."

Immediately objecting to her method of making the sunny day more bearable, Shadow reached over and rudely snatched the shades, uncaring of the offense he caused his partner.

His natural glower transitioned to a smirk as he spoke, "Hmph, I don't think so. You're not allowed to make yourself comfortable after what you put me through last time."

The bat's brows furrowed again and she opened her mouth to counter his statement, but he interrupted before she began. "If you get to steal my things, I can steal yours."

Rouge's glossed lips closed again and she stared at the smirking hedgehog, then her expression changed to one of playful vengeance as her eyes narrowed slightly.

The pair shared a silent moment of mutual acceptance that they would be competitively bantering all day, getting closer to the crowd even as neither intended to actually participate in the holiday celebration.

Under the shade of the gazebo, surrounded by the chatter of guests conversing in nearly every direction, Vector approached Vanilla while carrying a megaphone in both hands.

"Hey, so... I brought a gift to help you make announcements," he told her. "Without it, the people farther away might miss you talking about the egg hunt, and I want everyone to hear it."

"Oh, how thoughtful!" exclaimed Vanilla, taking the megaphone from his grip. "Thank you, Vector – this will certainly help."

She decided to take the opportunity then to announce the egg hunt, satisfied with the crowd that'd gathered, and so briefly adjusted the device's settings to comfortably carry her voice across the nearby area.

Lifting it near her mouth, the lady cleared her throat; the light hum of her action echoed out and caught the guests' attention, their conversations quieting as they all turned to her.

"Thank you all for coming to this wonderful celebration," she started, her wavery voice reaching to the back of the crowd. "Cream and I are so grateful to have everyone here on such a lovely day! Please enjoy the food and this beautiful sunshine for as long as it lasts – I just wanted to quickly let you all know that we've planned a special activity for anyone who wants to participate."

Vanilla gestured with her free hand to a space past the gazebo that led out into the park. "There are many colorful, hand-painted eggs hidden in different locations in this very park! If you'd like, you can hunt for them and put any eggs you find into one of these baskets."

She gestured the other way towards the stack of plastic buckets sitting on one side of the park table. Some of the guests looked at each other, sharing intrigued gazes as Vanilla stepped closer to the table and continued, "After one hour, we'll gather back here and everyone's eggs will be counted. The winner with the most eggs will get to take home this arrangement of different desserts, trinkets, accessories, and other goodies!"

She grabbed the gift basket and hoisted it up high enough for everyone to see, gaining a soft wave of interested mumbles from the audience. Then she placed it back down and finished, "I'll give anyone who wants to join in on the fun a bit of time to grab a basket and prepare for the search; then I'll announce the start of the hunt. Thank you all, again, for your time!"

The megaphone clicked off as the mature rabbit lowered it from her face, and she watched the crowd enliven again as some of them approached the park table to grab a bucket. Sonic's group all claimed a basket as well, and the Blue Blur's attention was soon grabbed by Cream tugging on his glove cuff.

"Sonic?" she chimed, staring innocent eyes up at him. "Can I ask you something?"

"Sure, Cream! What is it?"

She fidgeted with her fingers a bit, her voice sweet and polite. "If you're going to do the egg hunt, will you promise to give everyone a fair chance?"

"Aw, of course," he answered, endeared by her kindness. Her smile widened when he added, "I'll look for those eggs at the same speed as everyone else, just for you."

Happy with his reply, Cream hugged the heroic hedgehog. "Thank you, Sonic!"

At the very back of the shifting crowd, Shadow turned to Rouge after listening in on Vanilla's announcement. He held his neutral expression, but lifted one eyebrow slightly and crossed his arms. "You're lucky that I have no interest in this activity, otherwise you would be helping me obtain that prize."

The bat scoffed a bit, her lips curling into a smile as both hands gravitated to her hips. She replied sarcastically, "Gee, thanks – so kind of you to spare me the torture."

He broke eye contact to gaze at their surroundings, a bit disappointed that his partner wasn't suffering as much as he'd hoped. There wasn't much around to use against her without irking himself, as well.

Unfortunately for Shadow, the jewel thief was more adaptable, finding it easier to brush off the annoyances once she'd begun playing his game.

After a moment, he commented, "There really is nothing here for us. How many of these events will we attend, only to realize it's near-meaningless to be here at all?"

Rouge glanced around the park as well, then at her friend, then towards the gazebo. "Hold on, Shadow, there's gotta be something here that's worth the trip."

Teal eyes landed on the park table, adorned with the open boxes of baked goods. An idea started to form in her clever mind, the sneaky lady taking note of how many guests stood near it.

Her bright gaze snapped back to Shadow's face, her smile mischievous. "Say, did you ever learn to appreciate a sweet treat?"

The hedgehog looked back at her, their eyes locking, and one of his brows raised in an expression of intrigue at her question. Meanwhile, Vanilla was preparing to announce the start of the egg hunt.

With everyone grouped up outside the gazebo, she assumed all who wanted to participate had claimed a bucket, and left the shady structure to join them. Vector and Cream walked with her, then stood by her sides as she fiddled with the megaphone again.

While they waited, the crocodile spoke up, "I have to say, ma'am, you put together a really nice party! I don't know if I could come up with something so creative!"

He laughed and received a reply from Cream instead of her mother. "Thank you, Vector – we worked really hard to plan everything!"

The detective cut his forced laughter short and decided to compliment the girl as well, hoping to earn extra points with Vanilla by expressing encouragement. "Well, you did a great job! Make sure to let me know if you ever plan something like this again!"

Once the matronly woman turned the megaphone back on, the chattering crowd's attention was drawn again by the device's feedback. They stood quietly, clutching their baskets and listening to their hostess' announcement.

"Alright, everyone! If you're all ready to begin the search, I only ask that you hunt fairly and avoid being rough with each other. This is a friendly competition, so please have fun!"

A vague mumble of agreement to the rules spread across the audience, guests preparing to head off as soon as Vanilla gave the word. Her voice echoed through the amplifier, "Ready, and... go!"

Everyone with buckets took off in different directions through the park, while those who chose not to participate cheered them on. With the space surrounding the gazebo abandoned for the moment, the cunning bat was able to stealthily approach the park table, quickly choosing a box of desserts to steal.

She swiped it from the wooden surface, then paused briefly to also grab a flower crown from the big basket sitting nearby. She escaped the area without being seen and retreated to a shaded spot behind a tree, where Shadow lounged with his back against the thick trunk.

His smug smirk made a reappearance as he watched Rouge peep around the oak to make sure she wasn't caught. "You just can't resist an opportunity to take something that isn't yours, can you?"

"Oh, hush," she responded, flashing a playful expression as she turned to sit next to the Ultimate Lifeform. "You act like you aren't an accomplice to this petty crime. Besides, it's not really stealing – they were offered up for everyone, right?"

A breathy chuckle barely escaped his slightly parted lips, calm red eyes looking down at the box being opened. "If you believed that, you wouldn't be trying to hide."

The lady's blue-green gaze flicked up at him briefly before returning to the assortment of sweet snacks. "Maybe I just don't want someone interrupting our fun."

Before he could add anything else, Rouge changed the subject. "Wow, these look good! Those bunnies really like to bake."

From the arrangement of cupcakes, cookies, and brownies, she grabbed one of the paper-wrapped mini-cakes which seemed to be chocolate-flavored, topped with purple frosting and dotted with white sprinkles.

Shadow took a square of dense fluffy fudge, a dessert he hadn't tried before. But predating his bite of the soft brownie was another comment from Rouge, his gaze being drawn when she motioned to reveal the flower crown she'd taken.

"By the way, I grabbed this for you," she said, a sly smile crossing her muzzle as she tossed the accessory towards his head.

It landed on the hedgehog's black and red quills a mere moment before he clutched the blossoms with his free hand, the wrist of which still displayed his Valentine's gift from Rouge.

She took notice of the gold wristwatch wrapped snugly around his glove's cuff, her gaze stuck to it while he scoffed at her teasing and removed the crown.

"You gonna be wearing that more often?" asked the curious woman, pointing at the metal band. "I know you said you liked it, but I'm still a little surprised you actually kept it."

Shadow glanced at the watch and then shrugged, averting his gaze to stare back down at the dessert in his other hand. He dropped the flower crown to the ground and answered, "I found a use for it – there isn't much more to it than that."

One ivory brow furrowed over sky-blue eyeshadow and Rouge placed her free hand over his, instantly rejecting the man's tendency to brush off bonding moments. "Come on, now, Shadow. You don't have to be aloof with me."

He ignored her touch atop his own but didn't move his hand from the grass. His unchanging facial expression blocked her attempt at closeness from being acknowledged. Rouge continued, "I actually kinda liked the more playful energy you showed today. You're sort of spunky when you're out for revenge."

She chuckled in a faint attempt at flirtation, expecting him to be a bit more positive when he looked back at her. But Shadow's response was more of the same. "I just like to see people paying their dues. So, while I'll admit it was vindicating to see you feel some of the aggravation I experienced, that amusement doesn't last very long."

His crimson eyes dragged away from her once more and his demeanor stiffened slightly, though the stoic being's deep voice remained calm. "But don't get the wrong idea. I'm not loathing being here."

Rouge stared at him for a second, trying to analyze her teammate's state of mind through his body language, but not quite deciphering what he might be feeling on a deeper level – down in the depths of his guarded core, where he likely kept all the emotions he wouldn't speak about.

It was tough to crack the thick outer shell that was Shadow's stone-faced manner, even as he didn't rationally have anything to worry about. His naturally reclusive nature influenced the need for privacy and respect of that boundary.

So, while the bat didn't fully accept his answer as satisfying, she allowed him to get away with not accepting her compliment. It was a fairly even trade, and all she really wanted from the hedgehog was the effort to spend his time more casually.

If that meant simply sitting in the shade and having a snack together, then that's what it would be, and Shadow seemed to be okay with that deal when they moved on to tasting the expertly-crafted treats that helped bring the pair a little bit closer.

GOD I love loving on a farm. Taking care of animals is just. UGHB HEYRE SO CUTE!!!! I love our pigs. I named one of them pig. My sisters named the other (pua, William (they originally did Wilbur but I whined about it enough they changed it) and yummy) but pig is the runt of the litter and gets bullied so I feel bad about it. We also recently moved the younger frizzle chickens with the rest of the flock so they’re finally able to to free range and are so much happier. Can’t wait to see them roaming around in the summer. (Chickens trying to cross the stream is so fun to watch) we also have rabbits and our springtime goal is to build a pen so they’re happier. My parents hate caging animals and do not believe it’s right but unfortunately bunnies will run away if they get spooked and are too stupid to come back so we have to build them a pen and didn’t get the chance yet. We’ll be hatching chicks in the spring for meat as well so that is VERY exciting. The process of butchering is also SO FASCINATING! It is sad and like its a weird feeling killing something but knowing they don’t understand anything happening and don’t feel the pain (dad made specifically sure that the process was as painless and quick as possible) helps a lot. But the rest of the process is super interesting and very satisfying. Plus for some reasons chickens FUKCING love eating chicken guys which is SO gross and my mom refused to let them have too much because it weirded her out so we burnt the guts and had snores when the bonfire burnt everything. Crazy night. OH also we have ducks and they’re so cute and none of them are girls and my mom doesn’t care to eat them so now we just have pet ducks unless we can get girls. (We want eggs

How about one OC for each month of the year 😏 If that's too many, just the months with major holidays!

Oh I'm doing all of em babey

January:

(Art+design by hotchocolategalaxy on toyhouse)

Glace! The prince of the Winter Kingdom, constantly using the kingdom's resources to search for his parents, who had been lost in a blizzard. He keeps his head up though, and is a beacon for others who are also grieving the loss of their rulers

February:

(Art+designs by @arcaneyouth !)

Cabriel (blue) and Darciel (pink)! You get two for this one because You Cannot Separate Them. Not only were they from a valentine's themed adoptable set but they are also the gods of love who gained the title through how pure and wonderful their love for each other is. They would literally tear apart the universe to protect each other

March:

March makes me think of plants, and plants make me think of Raven! The leader of the mind control monsters, who uses vines/seeds/plants as their method of control. Very stoic and hardly ever shows emotion, but actions speak louder than words and sometimes they fuck with people for fun and it's awesome. In some sort of genderqueer toxic relationship that's lasted centuries that even I don't know all the details of and will refuse any knowledge of it if asked

April:

(Art+design by minuhime on toyhouse!)

April! Yes yes it's her name but she's also a cute bunny! She went with all her friends on a school field trip and had such a wonderful time until monsters started attacking and she was one of the first to be transformed into a creature representing her deepest fears. She was simply too sweet and soft and absolutely refused to believe she was in a horrored game

May:

(Art+design by @arcaneyouth !)

SURPRISEEE ITS EYUMIE AGAIN! She makes me think of May because that was one of the months where I was making my Junior Film starring her! Springtime always makes me think of her because of this tbh alshfgskg

June:

Daniel and Jade Hillston! Daniel is the main character of the murder mystery story that doesn't have a name yet, working hard to find the killer so he can free Jade, his daughter, who has been arrested for the crime. He knows she wouldn't do it. She would never. It HAD to be someone else. But he's always worried that person might be himself. I did a lot of the development for this story in summer and that's the time of year it takes place in so it always makes me think of it c:

July:

(Art+design by @arcaneyouth !)

Jubilee! They teleport using fireworks and are a minor deity in the Locked Love universe! Not sure what they do yet but they're definitely besties with Mirri and Ulrick. Treats checking in with them like a trip to their grandparents house

August:

(Art+design by @arcaneyouth !)

Aurelius! The final boss of a metroidvania-type game I started developing after playing Hollow Knight in the summer. They have taken on the role of antagonist simply because they didn't think the previous main antagonist was doing a good enough job to earn the role. They are dedicated to the theatrics, but always holds back when actually fighting. What kind of story would it be if the hero dies?

September:

This guy needs a name if anyone has any suggestions! One of the few humans in The Hallowed who is dedicating his time to trying to figure out what the FUCK is going on in this town. Makes me think of early fall where things are cold and chilly and just a little rainy but the trees still have leaves and there's a mist in the air. Thats his gender tbh

I'm gonna continue this in a reblog in hopes of being able to add the last two images give me just a moment

Originally posted to www.onlyfunthings.org on March 23, 2018

Ciao lovelies! Today I've got a super easy and simple doll DIY for you! This time we're making a doll bunny ears headband in time for Easter, if you celebrate it, or just Springtime festivities in general! 

This DIY is soo easy and all you need to make it is:

Hot glue gun and hot glue sticks

Felt in white and pink

Scissors

A pipe-cleaner/chenille stem (whichever you call them!)

A doll (For measurement)

The steps:

1. Bend the pipe cleaner in half, and twist around itself. Bend it to snugly fit the doll's head.

2. Attach two other pieces of pipe cleaner to the headband.

3. Cut four ear shapes from white felt, and two mini ear shapes from pink. Hot glue the white felt around the "antennae" we created in the last step. Then hot glue on the pink for inner ear pieces.

4. Try it on your doll and bend it to fit better. And you're done!

I hope you all liked this very simple easy tutorial! Have lots of fun making your dolls tons of springtime costumes! I'd love to see your creations! Use #OFTreaders on Instagram to show us your awesome DIY creations!

I wanna share a fun springtime story.

Once upon a time on a little youtube show called GTLive, there was a plushie of a yellow peeps rabbit named Peepachu. I was enamored and wanted one of my own, and I eventually convinced my mother to get me a small yellow peeps bunny plush.

But I never explained why, and I even have more peeps bunny plushies now, but she thinks it's because I like peeps a lot. I fucking hate peeps.

So now, every easter, despite being in my mid 20's now, I can expect her to give me more peeps. Weird peeps too. I would've been fine with the plain ones. But this year she sent me back to my apartment with fucking sour strawberry, sour watermelon, wild berry peeps. Peeps lip balm in two artificial flavors that I despise (grape and vanilla) and I don't even wear lip balm.

I'm burdened with forever getting nothing but peeps for easter because of MatPat and Stephanie. Their legacy continues in my personal life through god damn peeps
