Trying to reorganize the list of oc rp accounts so i can make it. Not just a really long list and actually make it something orderly and

There are too many of you /affectionate) and I'm still missing like. Three. But I'll deal with that when I finish up and post the list. Gotta reorder it by year and then reorder it again alphabetically so i'm not trying to figure out chronology again and make sure all the info is correct and then I have to copypaste it to tumblr and link everyone because you can only put 50 @'s in one post and. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

favorite ways of eating potatoes (i want potatoes)

hard to pick a single favorite but my usual go to when i'm cooking potatoes for myself is to cut em into wedges (or just big chunks if the potatoes are small), douse them in olive oil, salt, and whatever herbs or spices i feel like, and then roast them hot in the oven until they're soft and golden. usually takes like 20-30 minutes at 425f flipping them over once or twice, i find. any potato would work but gold potatoes are usually what's in my pantry. although if i can get purple potatoes at the farmers market i use those bc they're fun. it's a dirt simple way to prepare potatoes but they're super good, the tastiness to effort ratio is super high, and you can cook something else on the other half of the sheet pan at the same time too so you get a whole dinner with only one dirty pan

If you were going to rate the dads on 'how likely are they to complain about eating their vegetables' how would you rate them?

I don’t think any of them would really complain about eating their vegetables tbh. They just eat whatever’s given to them. I say Linebeck May struggle the most cuz he doesn’t eat a lot of veggies. Mostly fruit and fish 🤷‍♀️ but idk, some veggies are darn good so I doubt they complain much about it

25 for the reading ask game?

End of the Year Book Asks

25. If you had to give a TEDTalk on a book you read this year, for better or worse, which would it be?

I could write a long discussion about a lot of the books I read, or reread in the case of Chuck Tingle's Straight (his first horror novel) but I think The Glutton is by AK Blakemore is going to be the one that sits with me for years.

It tells a fictionalized version of the life of Tarare, who lived approx 1772-1798. He made a living as an opener for a band of traveling performers, shocking and disgusting the crowd with his ability to eat absolutely anything, including live animals and rocks, and, towards the end of his life, was studied by doctors and documented to have eaten enough for 15 men in one sitting.

Blakemore has this incredibly unique way of writing, where everything is just a little dreamlike, a little separated from the reader like we're seeing Tarare's life through a dirty glass. There's this immense, profound sadness as a throughline, with this young man who just wanted to be loved, and was deprived of it to the point where he seemed to know nothing of right and wrong - only whether he was accepted or mocked. He's not a bad person in his own mind, and he rarely seems to actively wish other people ill, no matter how justified, but he's got a sort of amorality that comes with just being so completely separate from the norm. There's more to it than what I'm saying here, with a bit of discussion on his sexuality and mental disorder, but nothing is ever given a name/diagnosis.

I have more to say about it, and I could offer actual critical discussions on the way the prose and pacing support or fail the story, but overall it's just....so much? It's so much. I'm gonna read it again.

I don't recommend it for anyone who can get squeamish about hyper/omniphagia. There are also scenes of emotional/physical abuse, medical abuse (both well intentioned and sadistic) and just an all around bad time.

If Alexander were to travel to the future, what do you suppose he would like about it?

Sorry for responding late!

As for the answer, that’s kind of a tough one. Because my headcanon is that he doesn’t really like the future in the scenarios in my head.

I get the vibe that he’d much prefer the past. But if there is ONE thing he would like, I think it would just be seeing Ava enjoy the things she’s comfortable with. Like going to thrift stores or Spirit Halloween lmao.

For the prompt how about the word poison for Zelda and pip

“For the last time, just because you don’t like the flavor doesn’t mean it’s poison,” Zelda huffed. “How are you this stubborn?”

Pippin bit his lip as he watched her struggle to get their son to eat his vegetables. He decided it was most prudent not to answer her query.

Vogue, how's being a superhero? Have you had any big villain fights lately?

"You wouldn't believe how many villains. Sort of why we've been inactive for a while. Had to lay low, ya know? But Bumblyburg is finally feeling safe enough to blog again! That's...that's how blogging works, right?"

Softer question this time.

Question Three! Siyoh grew up in a bakery. She helped work it. She suffered for it. Does she still bake? Does she have a favorite recipe? A favorite food?

Siyoh's life at this point revolves around food and hospitality. She's dedicated her life to becoming a passionate culinarian and trades woman.

After the revolution Rex helped her reclaim her family's business by financing her purchase of the old family Bakery, which was at least still mostly intact. Now that the occupation had passed Siyoh wanted to restore the honor her parents had fostered before her and celebrate their memory.

She considered reopening a bakery, but with it brought many ill memories of living a life under occupation. Furthermore, since living in Limsa Lominsa she'd learned a lot about both Othardian and Eorzean cooking. Too, she learned many out West were not familiar with Eastern customs nor food, and this was something she wanted to change.

Siyoh is incredibly passionate about Doman (and Thavnarian) culture. She loves spreading the wisdom both her Mother and Father passed on to her about their traditions and culture. She's excited to share Eastern food with those who have never tried it before, and since the revolution brought so many new faces to the East it cultivated the perfect opportunity for her current business, the Umbral Udon, which operates out of the building which used to be her Mother's bakery.

A now thriving venture in the East, it serves primarily as a Ramen Shop/Noodle Bar. However, there is an RSVP only venture in which Siyoh cooks a multi-course meal for a group of up to six diners she calls 'A Taste of the East.' This is mostly for foreigners but some locals enjoy participating too. The goal of this meal is to introduce patrons to an assortment of both Hingan and Doman cuisine and educate them on the historical and cultural influences and significance of each dish.

As a trader following in her Father's footsteps and working with a lot of his pre-established contacts, Siyoh has access to a wide range of the most fresh and delicious ingredients on the Eastern roads, seas, and winds. Further more, as the Umbral Udon works hand in hand with her sister establishment, Azuma's 'The Doman Dragon', they also have a large plot of land where they work their own fresh foods and ingredients.

Her work ethic, trading know-how, and contacts are what likely originally caught Rex's eye and influenced him to finance both establishments. But also likely led to the early attractions between both Rex and Siyoh, who are now romantically involved much much later down the line.

These days, most of the labor for the Umbral Udon is worked by staff which have been carefully curated by Siyoh. Why? Because she has moved her business further West to be more involved with Firelight Trading Company leading their Hospitality division. (You know, so that she can be closer to her man and not an entire ocean apart...)

Part of her job entails things such as curating the menu and management of The Fireside. Which is why if you ever attend one of the Fireside in game roleplay events, you might catch Siyoh make an entrance in the last 20-30 minutes before close to take inventory, see what sold, make adjustments to the menu, and make sure the staff and Baristas (like Mihli and Sarrai) are happy.

So she absolutely still bakes. I don't think she bakes for sale any more, but rather more as a love language for those around her and to keep the memories of her Mother close.

When Siyoh was still spending time under As'htola's roof in Limsa Lominsa, I once wrote about how she covered her kitchen in currant tarts. She spent the entire day and night making them, desperate to perfect them because she could almost remember why they mattered so much to her. And that Starlight, she remembered it was because of her Mother.

So food and cooking, also played major parts in Siyoh regaining her memories and healing too.

Food is her love language, but also a universal language. Food brings people together.

🌶️ 🥕 for sky 🥺👉👈

Fruit and Vegetable Asks for OCs!

Ah yes, Sky my beloved automatic older sibling--

🌶️ [HOT PEPPER] Who would your OC declare their sworn enemy if they could meet them?

I would say one of the actual antagonists, but Sky's dramatic af so honestly, I think they'd end up in some weird "no I'M Abigail's best older sibling" rivalry with Abigail's actual sister, Charlotte. The two would probably go on and on about how cool they each are, while Abigail witnesses in pure confusion. They will be rivals forever no matter what Abigail tries to do.

But they're also gonna pummel Ben as soon as they lay eyes on that stick of a kid because NO ONE messes with their adopted baby sister (she's barely a year younger than them).

🥕 [CARROT] How tough is your OC against certain situations? How weak are they against others?

Physically, Sky isn't super tough. They could maybe land in a good punch/shove or two, but that's pretty much it. Most people with any sort of fighting training will kick their ass.

But, they're an actor (and a pretty damn good one at that), and they can definitely use that to their advantage. Whether it be pretending to be more hurt than they really are to mentally disarm their opponent or convincing others to help them out, Sky has other ways to be tough.

Thanks for the ask!

He didn't like it here — Surrounded by the extravagance of wealth and dated jujutsu traditions made Megumi feel even more out of place than he already felt, even at such a young age. An age which should have consisted of smiles and naivety. The child ventured around the premises while kicking rocks and wishing he was anywhere but on Gojō clan territory. An hour dragged with the speed of ten when malachite eyes suddenly spotted the four paws, wrinkly whiskers, and friendly tail belonging to a stray cat. He moved swiftly ( purely on animal loving instinct before really thinking about his actions ) and snatched up the colourful feline. A hiss, several scratches, and a conversation later, Megumi returned to the estate with his new friend tucked within his yukata. The boy seemed to march forward with the glee he experienced, and the scratches on his chin and chest went ignored.

           Sweet incense that perfumed the air, the conclave of stone that had been untouched for thousands of years, humble people, virtuous with goodness in their hearts. So was the legend in this land, the tale of those high upon the summit that were graced by the infinite skies, nothing had changed. The practices that were still held like a vice && superstitions that were uniquely their own. Thousand eyes that linger upon the inky hair boy, each holding their tongue beneath a veil, for those of such lineage they hid amongst one another - shrouding their gaze && visage out of humility, protecting their beloved lordling. All those who found a way into the heart of the benevolent God were welcomed, granted with a kindness that was polite && hollow, still cautious as if expecting violence within a moment. Cups of mulled wine, cider that was rich with spices, tea to warm the belly && pretty confections with traditional flavors, never to know desire, they shared in their bounty.

          The sky hangs low, threatening another storm, but the chill is another emotion he has become accustomed to. Constant onslaught of voices that utter this or that, what their enemies or allies plan to do, monotonous topics that drove him to yawn - rudely. The passage of time flows freely within the thin altitude, seeping into every crevice, pausing momentarily to greet the souls long departed. It’s almost lunch, his ward was most likely hungry, elongated fingers that move to pull && tug at bandages mouthing with an utmost brashness; let’s cut this conversation short. Echoing, the sound of whispers fill the courtyard, barren at the moment, awaiting the blossom of Spring to come in. Only the willow tree remains, great && imposing, a constant guardian. His stomach grumbles, threatening to eat itself as he ponders, where is Megumi? Bakeneko, it catches his attention. A feline has found its way onto their grounds? How strange, most would scurry unnerved by the air that hung loosely. Unease, from shrewd eyes that pierced through their veils, the Honored One instead laughs - billowing in delight.

             What a proud creature, which one he spoke of was that of a mystery, “Oh, Megumi-chan! I was wondering where you went. Come, let’s have lunch, I’m sure you are hungry” with his head tilted, arms grasping one another through the flow of teal sleeves, a silver brow quirks. “A friend?” waving off any implorements of what ill luck this could bring, azure eyes rolled, if the shadow child wished to fill the estate with creatures to call friends - then so be. Happiness where it was least found, in their world that threatened to tear apart all that was innocent, a moment of joy in childhood was all that mattered. Crouching down, he stood eye level, lips pursed while reaching out. “Tsk, tsk! You couldn’t dodge those paws now, could you?” this would liven things up in such a haughty structure.

          “See what happens when you skip meals? Cats start to pick on you! That’s never good but, I think your new friend will like oden stew - I heard it’s a sure way of becoming strong that’s only if you eat the vegetables”
