↳ @stingslikeabee gifted: It was impossible for Melissa to let Aerith's birthday go unnoticed or uncelebrated - not when the flower girl turned into such a remarkable presence in her life. Not only the younger woman, but also Elmyra; they welcomed the brothel madame into their domestic routines as if she was related by blood; they supplied the human connections that the inn proprietress craved so much.

In reality, they offered Melissa a gift everyday with their affection and allowing the brunette to belong; it was only fair to repay it on Aerith's special day.

For that year, however, the madame tried to be creative - as well as a little bit on the mischievous side. Bringing Aerith jewelry was not a novelty in itself, even if Melissa tended to order her gifts from a particular artisan and get them custom-made, just as her own pieces. But this time, no flower or expected allusion to the girl's beautiful garden... But a small, very familiar feline figure hanging from a delicate gold chain (golden like honey - of course).

"I thought you'd appreciate a little reminder of a mutual friend of yours, even when he's not around," Melissa joked, the pendant an obvious allusion to Cait Sith although it wasn't immediately noticeable to anyone unfamiliar with Reeve's esteemed companion, "Besides, it's going to be so much fun to watch Reeve struggle to remember when he gave you that," the older woman grinned, but proceeded to envelop Aerith in a hug and press a kiss to each of her cheeks, as well as one on her forehead. There was no such thing as too much affection for the madame, after all.

"Happy birthday, sweetheart. I hope you have many happy ones - I'll do my best to shower you with gifts during each and every one of them."

------IT HAD LONG been noted that aerith had a penchant for finding company in the oddest of places. any detailed eye, if they knew where to look, might find that she'd befriended (in some fashion) each of the turks that visited her in their quiet, secret moments. body guards, bar maids, "terrorist" group leaders ... everything in between, painted magnificently in a canvas of friendship that only someone like aerith gainsborough could weave. it should come to no surprise that among those friends lay two influential figureheads ---powerful in their own right, and tied to the cetra in a similar fashion: through love.

reeve tuesti was a surprise of a friend. he was a surprise of a love, too, spawned from innocence and delicate gestures, cherished in dirt-covered palms as if he were precious like a seedling (and he was precious, he was). the turks were one thing - if shinra knew they had been keeping aerith secret for so long, shit would surely hit the fan. but one of their directors? so close? preposterous.

and the proprietress of the honey been inn struck another note. wall-market was cloistered organization of power itself. while the don held the obvious influence it was the madame of the inn that really held power ... secrets, one in the same. it had never been aerith's intention to get in good with melissa for anything other than a friend. more than this ---a sister. the gossip that came therein was a comical bonus, often left by the wayside for genuine affection in the form of time spent. aerith would happily whittle her days away in the company of big sister, learning from her, laughing with her, enjoying the softness that came with each of these aspects.

elmyra so often commented how nice it was to have someone like mel around, too. a good balance of those brutes (the turks, or maybe zack and cloud?)

keepsakes were precious to aerith. the ribbon gifted from a dark-haired SOLDIER so often adorned her hair still (or her wrist, if she didn't wear the twist people so often associated with her). the glimmer of the feline had aerith's eyes widening and the grin that spread to her features was infectious. cait sith was precious to her - someone she toted around the slums as if he were a child and not a creation of that aforementioned shinra director. " oh mel, it's too much! " gold, really ... but she wriggled in her seat while inspecting the charm regardless.

she was quick to clasp the necklace around her neck, then to accept mel's sweeping hug in one of her own. she squeezed her dear friend with all of her little might, a chuckle escaping her thereafter, " please, he'll drive himself insane trying to remember. he's not far off, not with the work hours. " a pause, and aerith lingered holding onto mel's hands, clasped her fingers with melissa's, " stay the night? a sleep over? thank you, melissa. sincerely. "

Hello! Hey! Hi!

I don't think I saw this question being asked before (so if it was I'm so sorry I didn't see it 😔) but is there anything that can get [REDACTED] flustered?

And if so my I have a silly little fic abt it? (You don't have to indulge in my silliness if ya don't want to)

OH AND I LOVE YOUR GAME SM RENREN IS SUPER CUTE THANK YOU FOR MAKING 14DWY ILY/P 🔥🔥🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

✦゜ANSWERED: Every time Ren got flustered in the demo was a genuine reaction!! Angel could literally comment on his shoes looking nice and he'll become a blushing mess.

Like... Why was Angel looking at his feet? Do they like his style? He did buy those shoes specifically with Angel in mind... Did they notice? Do they want a pair as well? Do they want to match? Does Angel like him? ...Does Angel love him? Do they want to get married within the next ten years or one? Where would they live? What wallpaper would Angel like? Kids? One or fourteen of them?

...Wait, what if they were looking at his socks?

The juxtaposition of these two posts has me thinking it's Ear from the first post waking them up, and Machete is just like "...I'm really not pleased but I'm also not going to be angry because that's not what Ear needs right now."

↳ @tsurugixbuster gifted: The SOLDIER is always running off. There is always a new mission to be complete or a battle to be fought...

Still, when the flowergirl comes home from a long day of selling flowers, there is a wrapped package left at her door.

Pink ribbons and bows adorn the vibrant red paper, and in big bold letters her name is written on the card attached to the gift. With "from Zack" scrawled out across the bottom of the paper.

------SHE NEVER EXPECTED anything on her birthday. a silly notion, considering elmyra always went out of her way to ensure that aerith felt loved now. she suspected that her adopted mother often worried - that she'd slip through the cracks and be forgotten (much as she was as a child attending the leaf house for lessons, being teased by other children), or that she was insignificant. aerith never believed those things. it was only ever evident in the way elmyra looked out for her, cared for her that she was adored. but still ---she suspected that a mother worried. it had been a long time since she'd woken up to find her daughter shaking in bed with a cold sweat form nightmares - memories come in the form of dreams. but it still happened.

regardless, aerith never expected anything. she loved the morning routine, the stack of pancakes so high that it would be impossible to eat more than four (she always ate seven, though). or the cake in the evening, bringing a sugar rush so dangerous that aerith often climbed up on the roof to sit under the soft artificial "moonlight" and listen to the flowers and the waterfall.

she looked forward to those things - her own gift to herself tucked into a little satchel at her side, a sort of pseudo purse with precious life within. the package was hard to ignore, not that she wanted to, and she stooped for the gift as she neared the door. surely not elmyra.

when it turned over in her hands she lit up at the name scrawled below -sore for missing him, if he'd stopped by himself, but excited all the same. rather than bringing it in with her (and rather than experiencing the third degree of elmyra gainsborough) she crouched where she was ... by the door, and gingerly began unwrapping the gift.

she did like surprises.

[artistmarchalius]

can you tell us more about broppy capture au?

Sure! Here’s a little somethin’ somethin’:

So, Branch didn’t confess his feelings to Poppy at the end of Word Tour, he felt like it needed to be its own thing and that Poppy deserved to be in the moment after saving the world. He thought there’d be plenty of time to confess later. They still have a good connection though now that they’re better at communicating.

They’re out in the hot air balloon on another adventure when a strong wind knocks them off course towards the woods near the base of Mount Rageous and they get stuck in a tree. They aren’t able to shift the balloon on their own so when they see Velvet and Veneer (who are out hunting for Trolls to use) they ask them for help, but instead V&V capture them.

V&V now have a Troll to use each (His and Hers Trolls) and because Velvet is more trigger happy with the spray bottle, Poppy deteriorates quicker than Branch.
