I read some post about how female capuchin monkeys flirt by throwing rocks because they don't have other means (or experience) to socially demostrate it.
So I just jokingly told my partner that because Padmé is extremely unsocialized outside of being royalty/senator, she would flirt by throwing rocks at Anakin.
And, I didn't expect my partner response which was "If Padmé threw rocks at Anakin, he would save every one single of them"
NKJDNSJ HELP????.... HE WOULD
No one would ever suspect they're having something because as far as the public is concerned, Senator Amidala must certainly hate Jedi Skywalker, like she throws things at him and everything, she can't stand him.
Usually, I am not the one to use cliché AUs because they're not my thing, but... Usopp tattoo artist and Sanji florist AU? Usopp is an artist who actually is very interested in botany too, and most of his designs are related to flowers. He loves flowers' language and the meaning behind every plant. And Sanji works as a florist because the store is affiliated with the Baratie for ingredients purposes and whenever Zeff gets mad at him he just sends him to work there. Most of the time he hates working there (although at least this way he can see a lot of pretty girls... Most of them have boyfriends, but, yeah) but one day Usopp shows up to get inspiration for new designs and maybe buy some plants, and Sanji just- He kind of, sort of, falls in love at first sight? The guy is so dramatic,, But apparently, he keeps asking Zeff to let him work at the flower shop always after his shifts or whenever he isn't working. His father doesn't know what's going on but tbh, as long as the kid works...
HC: maddox and jet have a few nicks and burns on their fingers/hands from learning to cook, maddox having more ofc
Group sleepovers have made it abundantly clear that the siblings just.....don't use utensils when cooking all that often.
Maddox makes a grilled cheese by picking it up and flipping it.
Jet grates cheese with his fingers.
They remember what oven mitts are about 40% of the time, they just use a spare towel most the time. They get burnt every time they forget to make sure the towel is dry.
Neither ship is better than the other. It is what it is. A ship is just a ship. A shoe is just a shoe. And a hat is just a hat. One might mean more to you than to someone else, but it doesn't necessarily have to mean it's better or superior. In the end, it is what it is. I think that if Eddie was real, he would just be flattered that you guys think he has a chance with either one of them. Stop the war.
My suggestion would be to ship both, but that's just my opinion.

i've never seen anyone else talk about it but i'm so interested in what their relationship must be like, it fascinates me like, a thousands time more than what's going on with calvin and grover. they're both so irritable. felix doesn't even care to remember that grover is literally their lawyer and cousin. grover is someone below him on the little social ladder he sees as a target and felix is someone even more immature and unpredictable than his brother. calvin can at least keep an upper hand over felix's antics but these two would tear each other apart if left in a room for more than 20 minutes together. and most importantly they're fucking ridiculous
