"Chat wants me to wear the cat headphones, Tristan. Should I?"

{🗡️} - "Was this a sub goal or something?"

"Nah, but they really want me in the cat headphones."

{🗡️} - "Maybe make it a really high redeem? That way it's there if they want to, but they'll have to pay you a pretty penny to see it!"

Claps Tristan on the back making the other choke. "That's why you're the smart friend. Thanks, mate!"

{🗡️} - Coughs. "D-don't mention it..."

[cuteteacakes]

Katsu will perform for bachelor parties. @katsu-at-the-bottom

"Yeah! Music!!"

{🗡️} - "R-really lads, it's fine! You don't have to go through the trouble- I thought you didn't even like me??"

"We all like you Hawthorne. Just because we don't understand your ways, doesn't mean we hate you. Fabian and Aaron tease you because they don't know any other way. And I might be slow, but I observe. I know how hard you work, Hawthorne. You're a good knight. Really."

"I-" Tristan had to blink once or twice. "I've never heard you use so many words with more than one syllable... I-I mean, oh gosh, Bartol, that..." He began to tear up. "Everyone... Thank you..."

"Ugh, enough sap! We're here to get you good and drunk! We're all going to get drunk! Bring out the wine!!"

Hey High Tower boys!! How's Makoto? Are you guys enjoying it?

"It's warm here, but not dry warm like home. The plants make me itchy."

"Nice, it's really nice." Sneezes and sniffs. Bartol isn't the only one feeling the allergies-

"Unlike the other two, I've been enjoying myself. Exploring the land, taking in the sights..."

"I think it's a fine time to actually relax and-"

"OI. STOP OGLING THE LADIES."

"Taking in the sights~~~"

[cuteteacakes]

"Welcome back to the channel, Chat. I see some new faces. My name is Bartol and I am, despite how I look, a cozy streamer. We're going to be playing Stardew Valley. I'm aiming to get Elliott as my husband. Now I know what you're thinking. Elliott looks like my mate Tristan. Trust me, that is a coincidence and has nothing to do with it. Right then. Let's get going. We have some crops to harvest."

[cuteteacakes]

Bartol threw himself onto the dry land and stayed on all fours panting. "Thank god, I thought I was gonna die."

"You didn't have to take your shirt off..." Fabian stepped around him and stretched. "The long boat ride is worth it to see Makoto again, and in spring too!" He breathed in the fresh air, followed by a sneeze.

"Do you think Hawthorne will be mad we came early?" Aaron asked before chuckling. "Huh huh... came early..."

'We can use the time to get a lay of the land, see what Makoto is all about. I'm sure Hawthorne won't mind. He invited us after all!" The commander's tone grew serious. "But you three better be on your best behavior or I'll send you back to High Tower without the boat. Got it?"

"Yes sir!"

[cuteteacakes]

"ROAD TRIP ROAD TRIP!"

"It's boat trip you moron."

"I don't feel too good......" HURK.

"NOT ON ME YOU IDIOT!! Do it on Aaron!"

"Boys, you better not behave like this at this wedding. I'll skin all of you alive and bring them back to High Tower as a warning to the squires."

A chorus of "yes sir."

[cuteteacakes]

Show no weakness, lest they take what's precious.

Everything burned, and it was beautiful..

Spare women and children, leave no survivors.

I LIKE TURTLES :D

[cuteteacakes]

A conversation between knights back after Tristan first left for Makoto:

"Hey, who am I??" Flips hair (what he can). "Oooh, I hate fighting soooo much, I get no maidens but that's okay because my books will bed me instead~~~"

"You forgot the part about only wanting to go to Makoto because of the gardens and coming back in shame!!"

"...I don't get it."

"Bartol you big fathead! It's Hawthorne! Pansy Hawthorne! I did the hair flip and everything!"

".....Ooooooh-"

"I still don't get it."

[cuteteacakes]

"Sir, you have a letter!"

Commander Alain thanked the page and took the parcel from him. "Who could be writing me from-... Makoto??" He nearly dropped it. "This is from Hawthorne! He's..." He almost dropped it again. "A wedding?!?"

"What's this? A wedding?" Fabian was eavesdropping on his commander's exclamations and peered over his shoulder. "WHAT??? Tristan's getting married to the princess of Makoto?????"

"Let me see let me see!!" Aaron clambered onto Fabian's back. "We're all invited! ...wait we're all invited?? Who's going to protect High Tower if we all go???"

"Moron, he didn't mean the entire barracks. He only mentioned the four of us!"

"I knew that. Wait, four?"

"If I'm not mistaken," Bartol had peered over the other two. "That's my name right there."

[cuteteacakes]

"BARTOL I CAN'T FIND IT!!!!!"

Rubs his head. It's too early for Hawthorne to be causing a ruckus. "Can't find what?"

Tristan looked behind him and to the sides before getting real close to Bartol and hissing, "The ring. I can't find the ring!!"

"Didn't you have it?" Bartol was fully awake now. "I gave it to you, right?"

Tristan clenched a fist. "Y-you did. But I guess... I guess in all the commotion the other night... I woke up on top of Aaron and you... I didn't even think to check the pocket I put it in until later, and... and I couldn't find it... Oh, Bartol, I could've swallowed it in my drunken stupor for all I know!!"

Bartol grabbed Tristan by the back of his head and brought it to his forehead. "Breathe, Hawthorne. We just need to retrace our steps, and if you did swallow it, you'll have it back in about eight hours. Might need to wash it off though."

Tristan moaned. "I hope not..."

[cuteteacakes]

Bartol vc: Yorkshire accent

Tristan vc: Londoner accent (bc he the smart one)

Fabian vc: Cambridge/Harvard until drunk then turns to Yorkshire/Cockney

Aaron vc: Total Cockney "Ello Guv!"

[cuteteacakes]

cozy streamer Bartol needs a cute boyfriend... one who would sneak under the desk while Bartol's streaming to suck him off. I have the perfect one for him.

"....do they know you're ace?"

"I consider myself grey ace, so you never know. Maybe sparks will fly." Shrugs. "I'm not opposed to romance though."

"Speaking of which, have you asked them out yet??"

"!!! I-I have no idea what you're talking about."

[cuteteacakes]

Bartol normally:

Bartol when he do be dancing and feeling his oats:

[cuteteacakes]

akumanoken

Sakura is now concerned!! Allergies! He's so sorry!

"Don't worry, Your Highness! I'll beat up all the plants that make me itchy and Aaron sneeze!!" Starts swinging.

{🗡️} - "DON'T DO THAT!!" Save the flowers! He must save the flowers!!!

[cuteteacakes]

"So soon?" Tristan felt his eyes begin to water again. "Thank you for coming, Henri, it means... so much to me..." He quickly wiped his eyes with the back of his hand. "Oh, but let me introduce you! These were my fellow barrack mates back when I lived in High Tower, Fabian, Aaron, and Bartol."

"Your accent's funny."

"'ullo." Bartol held out a hand.

"Yes yes this is all very well and good but the wine isn't being drunk!"

"Why're you on about the wine?" Aaron asked. Fabian looked to the side and muttered under his breath.

"I might've stolen this bottle from Commander....."

"Only pulled into port maybe a day or two ago.." he grinned before looking the big guy up and down. "Goodness, you're a big guy, aren't ya? Yes, well, Tristan and I have known each other for a little while... and now that he's about to get himself hitched, there was no way I wasn't going to show up!!" He came over to Tristan, clapping his hand on the other's shoulder. The other boys there made him pause as well... "So High Tower just has handsome knights as a rule? Is there a prerequisite?' he chuckled.

Just got there and was already flirting.

[cuteteacakes]

"Don't mention it, my lady." Bartol winked and deposited the woozy knight to his betrothed. "We won't be doing none of that anymore, the parties I mean. Now all there's to do for you two is to have the wedding ceremony."

"Bartol, wait, I didn't... did I say anything about the-"

Bartol paused at the door. "Nah, mate, your secret's safe with me." And left. Tristan sighed in relief.

He couldn't help but giggle while he placed the man's head on his lap. "I'm sure. You're so cute, my love..." he sighed, carding fingers through the other's beautiful hair. "Getting kinship through your comrades?? Should I be jealous?" the princess teased before winking at Bartol. "Thank you for returning my errant knight to me, Sir Bartol."
