Dgm quartet + Christmas

You knew I would get here eventually. Happy holidays! I’m not super knowledgeable on other winter celebrations but I do find it cute that most societies and religions are like “fuck yeah, winter!!!”

Here’s what our favorite dorks (and Lenalee, who is less of a dork) think of Christmas, how they celebrate if at all, etc.

Allen

Before meeting Mana the day had no meaning to him. December 25th, who cares? So some people think it’s special for some reason. It��s just another day of work for him.

Then Mana declared it his birthday. Being the gremlin that he was as a child, he thumped Mana on the head and said “you just picked today so you don’t have to do anything.” But, he appreciates his birthday greatly by the time he’s come to the Order. It’s a nice memory of his father.

Celebrates just like everyone else in the European branch. His gifts to his friends are usually handmade because it’s cheaper, but he’s actually quite good at knitting so nobody notices.

We all know this boy drinks hot water as opposed to tea, coffee, etc. So catch him with a mug of hot water on Christmas morning.

And a big breakfast, obviously!

Cross never observed anyone’s birthdays or any holidays, really, so that was never a thing while Allen was under his tutelage, but Allen tends to like the good spirits everyone is in during the holiday season anyway. Cross hates it

Allen calls his master a “Scrooge” to everyone else. It’s true, but he won’t dare say it to the man’s face because he’d rather not be dead lmfao

He helps with decorating around the Order! Its fun and he gets to think about pleasant things, for once.

Mistletoe, though? No.

He doesn’t like pda so that’s a biiig no. Unless it’s in private :)

Stresses over your gift. Even though he knows it’s not important to you, it’s important to him and therein lies the problem.

His favorite part is cuddling under a blanket with you at the end of the day :)

Lenalee

This girl loves the holiday season! She probably celebrates Christmas in a very secular way, though, and maybe even other holidays. She doesn’t believe in god or religion but she likes the joy holidays bring

She likes to bake around this time of year. She’s alright at it, but she’s better at cooking. Expect a lot of burnt goodies to be lying around the order (they all get eaten anyway).

Snow is always nice! She loooves hot coco and being cozy inside with everyone. Might build a snowman with Lavi (and you, if you’re up for it), but it depends.

Leads the decorating committee. There are lights everywhere

She gives the most thoughtful gifts, I think, especially to her love interest!

If you’ll go with her, she likes to look walk around the city and look at the light displays.

Plans Allen’s birthday party too 🥳

Lavi

Gets drunk on Christmas every year

“Mi amor I am intoxicated” (Lenalee sends u a pic of him passed out with a picture od you open on his phone 15 min later)

Carries around mistletoe in his pockets. Both as an excuse to kiss you and to clown Kanda other people

If you are giving him a gift get him books or accessories

He typically gets you jewelry. He likes spoiling you and makes decent money as an exorcist, so.

Don’t let this man anywhere nearrrr the kitchen ever unless you want to hear an explosion at like 3 am on Christmas

Allen teaches him to knit scarves :)

Kanda

Grinchy boy

Usually goes on missions on Christmas, but occasionally Lena forces him to stay

If he has a special person, though, he’ll stick around and lie about it. “I’m just too tired today” sure, Jan!

Will actually sleep in with you this once. As a treat

He hates cold so if you think he’s going out in the snow (if it does snow), you are WRONG, and if you go out he’s fussing over you when you come in shivering and sneezing with no feeling in your toes

He would prefer to snuggle with u by the fire :)

Secretly, he figures out where Lena and the others hung mistletoe and makes sure to pass by there with you “by coincidence,” and pretends to be annoyed but insists that you “follow the rules” every time. What a baby

He gets a gift for you and that’s it. Maybe Lena and Marie, but honestly, probably not. It’s always something simple but very thoughtful. Usually it’s something he noticed you needed or wanted.

He doesn’t hate the holiday as much as he says he does. At least, not as long as you’re there. It’s actually pretty nice for him to get to relax with you inside where it’s warm, and he loves seeing you happy. He’ll grumble about it but if it makes you smile then sure, he’ll wear a stupid Santa hat for five minutes.

Update: I fucking love airports. Once I got over all of the different fears I had, I fell in love. Now I'm addicted to plane travel.

Me and some buddies decided to go to Florida to see an old friend to celebrate Lugnut's birthday. We were all excited for the trip, but Lugnut and I were a little nervous as well. We have never seen each other truly drunk before. We've drank together, but never in such excess. He admitted to me that he was afraid that he'd sexually harass and offend me and make things weird. I told him not to worry because drunk Danielle would probably just find that as funny as sober Danielle would.

I'm an easy drunk because I just dance and laugh for like 2 hours and then pass out somewhere. I figured I'd be an amusing sight for them.

BUT THE TABLES WERE TURNED. I got absolutely fucking rocked (like sprained my knee and got kicked out of a club and went back to the AirBnB alone and slept on the living room floor drunk) and apparently when my buddies got back (when I got kicked out they called me an Uber and sent me on my way) I woke up and sexually harassed the fuck out of Lugnut. He said that, verbatim, I told him that "I want to grab your fucking dick right now."

Part of me is so ashamed that I said shit like that to him because had anything happened (he's too polite and even if he had wanted to sleep with me, which he doesn't, he wouldn't have just because I was so drunk) I would have regretted that so badly. But, also, HAHAHAHAHAHA WTF like that shit is hilarious.

It's also worth noting that apparently I wanted to hit on my buddy Jake as well but told him, "Nope. I'm gonna' shut up because you have a girlfriend and she seems nice." To me that is so fucking funny.

[kandaxxx]

In a few hours I will be going on a plane for the first time in my life and I am TERRIFIED. I am not anxious thinking about flying on a plane because that doesn't seem bad, but I do have an irrational fear of airports and I am so scared right now lmaooooo

Update: the med is the first antipsychotic that I've ever tried that I could tolerate the side-effects of and it's early, but it seems like it's working. It could also eliminate the need for 7 of my other medications if it works as predicted. I've been taking samples while waiting for the prior auth on the prescription to go through. So good news! My insurance said too bad, none for you. They did tell me that I could just pay for it out of pocket which would be a cool $1,500/month.

I hate the American healthcare system. I really fucking hate it.

I saw a new psychiatrist for the first time in awhile and it went surprisingly well! I normally don't trust psychiatrists but this guy seemed a lot more like, genuine. He spent a full hour (normally every doctor I've met sees me for a total of 15 minutes every 3 months) talking to me and evaluating me and prescribed me 1 medication (every time I've seen a doctor for the first time I usually get 4-7 scripts) and wants to see me again in 2 weeks to see how I'm responding to the med???? Like??????

He explained what the med would help with and I pointed out that it only addresses 1/3 problems I want fixed and he goes, "That's true, but if I overload you on medications, we won't know what is doing what if you don't like any of them. If this one works out, we'll explore adding another medication for the next problem." And I just sat there like ???????

It feels like this should be the standard practice in psychiatry (unless you're in an emergency situation that requires several medications rapidly obviously) but it's so weird to me that in 10+ years of seeing psychiatrists that this is literally the first time I've ever had a doctor practice how they should.

chapter nineteen : The Rewinding City

Also, on the topic of the upcoming wedding, I am bringing Lugnut as my +1. He wasn't invited to the wedding (Chip wasn't planning on inviting people from work except for the few of us that he's really close to but he was okay with me bringing Lugnut along because he does like him.)

Chip believes that being able to dress well is a very important skill. He is not particularly fashionable, nor does he want to be, but he has a keen understanding of how to dress formally and believes that everybody should (understanding that you can't wear a brown belt with black shoes, that sort of thing.) So, we were both nervous about Lugnut. The poor kid has no concept of dressing formally and Chip will absolutely judge the shit out of him.

So, after work today, me and another co-worker kidnapped Lugnut to take him shopping so that I could pick out an outfit as I understand color theory in fashion ("what the fuck are jewel tones and why do I need to wear them? - my poor idiot friend, Lugnut.)

I picked him out a very nice blue shirt and black tie (I found a nicer tie but it was patterned and he's no fun) and he went to try it on at my nagging so that we could verify that it fit well.

He called me over to the changing room to make sure the outfit worked and BROTHER I just sjkhdf;jwefnhw;jefw;efhw

I've never seen him in anything other than dirty work clothes or jeans and a hoodie.

HE LOOKED SO ADORABLE. SO HANDSOME. I just--

[kandaxxx]

SO my good friend and co-worker is getting married. This friend, Chip, and I initially bonded over our shared love of Diablo III. Because of that, I decided to get a commission portrait of him and his lady as Diablo III necromancers (he doesn't play that class often but they both like creepy stuff and their engagement shoot was done in fucking homemade coffins so it fit better lmao.)

I found an artist I really liked and reached out to him. He said the project sounded mostly up his alley except that he doesn't do portrait work really well. He offered to do a sketch to see how he did and if I liked it, he would go ahead with the commission. I liked the sketch so we proceeded.

I got the final piece today and BROTHER I actually cried it's so beautiful. Exactly what I was envisioning. Also, it's DEAD NUTS ON to what Chip and his lady look like. EXACTLY like them.

I dOn'T dO pOrTrAiTs like bro maybe you should.

That post about death note being "everyone's first anime" (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science

Can you reblog this and tell me where are you from and what was your starter anime?

[kandaxxx]

BROOOOOOOO

so my co-worker is getting married in a few weeks. i'll be going to the wedding and i'm very excited for it.

my co-worker is a huge dude covered head-to-toe in tattoos. he is extremely intimidating. his girlfriend is this tiny blonde sprite of energy. it's literally the trope of scary boyfriend and ray of sunshine girlfriend.

and he WORSHIPS the ground that she walks on. he literally is like a fucking romance novel boyfriend when it comes to her. he's so in love with her and so proud of it. i almost cry everytime he talks about her because it's honestly so precious.

i asked him if they picked a song for their first dance. i was curious what they'd pick since they both strictly listen to metal and punk. then chip says, "it's a surprise for her and she won't know until the dance starts but i picked 'book of love'" and when i asked why he said, "the first show that we ever watched together was scrubs. when that song played back then [danielle note: that was about 5 years ago for reference] i knew that we'd dance to it when i married her one day."

BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MY HEART
