#and im craving my usual hearty foods not sweet things

[clanoffelidae]

Cons to being suddenly sent into vyvanse withdrawal again: basically everything

Pros: my appetite, which I have been struggling with since starting adhd medication that resulted in me rapidly (nearly a pound a day) and uncontrollably losing weight and led to changes i don’t like in my diet (more processed sugar, doesn’t sit well on my stomach :/) in an effort to consume enough calories to stabilize, has returned with a VENGEANCE

Hi Sofia! ❤️ How is it going? Sorry I'm a little late! So much to do and so tired recently 🥲

Hope you enjoyed a bit of your free time!! When are you done done with finals? 👀

Gonna confess, Im a glutton for food so always happy to hear people talk about their fav food too 😆. I know pannettone!! But I've only tried the Italian version, not sure how different they are (but I'm also sure the homemade ones are always the best!). Do you cook/bake too? :O I love empanadas too but I think I only know the fried ones! I had to Google the other two, BUT Locro looks so hearty to have omg and the alfajores looks so soft and good?! I wanna try them! 🤤 Just talking about it makes me so hungry right now... I do hope you'll get to eat all your favs this holiday season!!

Hmm I like a lot of different food too! And trying different countries food is always exciting to me so I like a little of everything. My favs is usually Japanese dishes or asian ones but specifically—I LOVE duck (the chinese ones in particular but also the seared foie gras), grilled meat 😅, sushi, udon (noodles are usually always a win), korean fried chicken or karaage. Randomly, I also like al pastor tacos, a good sandwich (roast beef is my go to ^^ ), samosas, hot pot, most potato things, cheese in general esp. gouda or goat!... I'll stop now hahaha. Btw do you have any favorite drinks?

Aww Im glad you enjoyed getting to where you are now! Asjdkkdd I'm not sure if my field fits me, there's definitely times I question it but it's what I do for now 😂😭.

The books—I'm familiar with the first few (jane austen books we had to read those in school!) but not the rest so I'll have to look it up sometime!! I had no ides howls moving castle was also a book! I'm sad to hear reading for uni took away reading for fun 😭. I honestly haven't picked up a book in ages so I feel this tho. These days I just read fanfics, I wonder if you were ever into those? 👀

Ahhh please!! I too love a lot of the scenes you picked as a fav! OMG AL 😭 you make me want to do a rewatch again of fmab...and the train scene with ed/winry and that line he says totally has my heart. AND THE MOB PARTS!! When the OST came on for both of those scenes? It was the most perfect beautiful ones and that song is one of my favs! That's when I knew I /loved Mp100 haha. HQ ahh so many good moments right...hinata growing is always so heartwarming, but so are the rest of them 😭. Honestly I want to rewatch hq like at least every year LOL... the sxf ones too, I love bond and I didn't expect to love Damien but it's growing. You picked such great favs ahh, let's see what Santa can do with those. 😉

Btw I haven't mentioned this yet, but went through your edits and you have such pleasant sets. So I want to ask! Do you have a favorite kind of style either that others make or that you lean towards? What inspires you to create?

Thank you for indulging me again and talk soon!!

- Animanga 🎅

So nice to see you again, secret santa ❤️ please don't apologize!! I hope you're doing well despite everything you need to do :')

My last final was the 6th, so I'm already on vacations for a while! I'm actually with my family at the beach rn hahahaha

Heh I totally get you! I honestly have no idea if there's a difference between italian panettone and the one we eat here 🤔 Empanadas can be either fried or oven baked!! They have a lot of variations between each southamerican country, in places like Colombia for example they always eat them fried, but here it's more common to have them baked as far as I know! Yeah locro is really comforting, carefully crafted to eat during winter >:) the tradition is eating it on may 25th, one of our two patriotic dates. Alfajores are heavenly!! I'm pretty sure they aren't very easy to find in other countries but if you ever stumble upon them and you're craving something sweet, I couldn't recommend them enough!

My mom is a baker that works from home (studied it professionally and all) but I admit I'm not much of a baker/cook myself 😅 I do enjoy cooking and if I'm given a detailed recipe there's a good chance I'll do mostly good, but for some reason I'm not very drawn to the kitchen. I do want to start cooking more tho, I just don't have much initiative. What about you?

Ooohh I think I've never tried duck now that I think about it 🤔 I want to try it now!! I haven't had the chance to try a big amount of asian dishes but I loved the ones I did try <3 i also love sushi and noodles!! Ohh korean fried chicken sounds delicious! I went to a korean food fair a few weeks ago with some friends and my favorite were the tteokbokki and the bulgogi 🤤

Oh I also adore tacos and anything with potato and cheese in it LMAOOO honestly idk if i have favorite drinks, I mostly like cappuccino and hot cocoa. When it comes to cold drinks, I'm fine with water or diet coke. I also like freshly squeezed orange juice 🧡

Oh you read Jane Austen for school?? Lucky you! We didn't read anything remotely similar in my high school, and then in uni my english literature teacher didn't like her books so we didn't read them 😭 I ended up reading pride and prejudice for another completely different class later on, and now I'm reading sense and sensibility by myself!

Oh I do read some fanfics from time to time, but definitely not with the consistency most people on fandoms do. Once in a blue moon I get obsessed with a character or a ship during like one evening and then spend the rest of the night searching for fanfics. I have bad luck at finding ones that actually catch my attention so I don't do it often.

HAHAHA I'm glad you liked the scenes I chose! Resisting the temptation to rewatch fmab is a constant struggle really 😖 same for Haikyuu! Oh yeah mob's soundtrack also takes the cake, wouldn't be the same without it 💕 Damien also grew a lot in me! His crush on Anya is so adorable. Can't wait to see what Santa does ;)

Awww thank you! My edits mean a lot to me so I'm very happy you like them 🥹 ohh that's such a hard question!! I find all editing styles or technics to be great on their own right, but I personally lend more towards gifs and graphics with soft colors, with subtle patterns and textures, carefully put together quotes and well placed panels! Maybe my explanation is a bit abstract so these are some examples:

Obviously this doesn't mean I don't like sets with stronger or vibrant colors!! As long as there's harmony between them, any color combos will be great :') I also love gifsets with big, clear and crispy gifs! You see a lot of them now that tumblr has updated their size limit lol

What inspires me to create is mostly the process, which I usually enjoy a lot (unless I'm creatively stuck, then not so much hahaha). I also love looking at other's creations and seeing if I can make something as beautiful! The challenges from animangacreators are also very helpful when I wanna make something and I don't know what ;)

That was a very nice talk!! See you again soon, my santa ❤️

Control Freak Tendencies III

With: Iwaizumi Genre: angst to fluff Warnings: swearing, going off on your strict diet, some parts could be taken as... weight-shaming?? Just a lot of stuff with diet and your own weight ;-; I don't want to offend someone who doesn't want to read this so I'm being extra careful on the warnings im sorry

One of the biggest perks of dating Iwaizumi is your lifetime membership to his services. Having a personal trainer anywhere you go, someone to look after your diet and all those little nitpicky things you often overlooked.

Hajime could be very sweet if he permits. It reflects on the way he watches over you strictly.

These days, you have been seriously stressed with work. The busy days for the office have begun and you've been hustling everyday non-stop. It often comes down to you coming home lifeless and feeling lonely. Often with times like these, you seek comfort through potato chips, ice cream, and chocolates so you do as your heart desires.

The only problem is, Hajime thinks otherwise. The first time you got the tub of ice cream out of the fridge in the middle of the night, he appeared out of nowhere. “Uh-uh, babe. Not this time and not until the weekend. You promised,” he yanks the tub out of your grasp and puts it back in the fridge. Leaning against the door to secure it from you. The pout on your lips was clear evidence of disappointment from you, but you did promise him that all cheat foods can only be consumed on the weekends. So with a heavy heart, you gave up the fight.

“Fine. But can I get cuddles?” you wiggled your brows at your boyfriend. And frankly, you don't know how his ears still redden whenever you ask so earnestly about things people in romantic relationships usually do. He swiftly averts his gaze from you, nodding, nonetheless.

Then it happened again on Wednesday of the same week. You were just so done with your boss making you do all the work for him. And you only wanted a nip of that chocolate bar but Hajime didn't let you. He snatched the bar before you could even rip it open.

“Don't be so hard-headed,” he knocks your forehead jokingly, “Weekends, remember?”

“Just a bite. To relieve stress,” you frown at him.

“No, princess. Remember when I spoiled you back then? It was so hard getting back in shape, right?” he reminds you of your miserable, 'I-can't-run-even-a-hundred-meter' phase. It did help to make you back down on the cravings but it worsened that sad feeling inside you. That night, you lie awake in bed, brain buzzing with so many thoughts.

On Monday, the next week, you had another episode of your stress cravings. To your surprise, the cheat stack in your cupboard is gone. The ice cream at the back of the fridge? Also gone. The chocolates? Nowhere to be found.

You heard a chuckle from your back. Turning, you saw Hajime staring at you. “I knew you'd do that again so I didn't buy any this week as a precaution,” he said, making you frustrated. “You are so annoying,” you grumbled, pushing past him and heading to your bedroom.

He tailed on your end with an offended scowl, “What? I'm only looking out after you!”

“Okay? Then? Wasn't I supposed to live off of my own will?” you retaliate, feeling the stress flowing out of you as you shout at Hajime.

“We have rules!”

“Damn those rules!” You covered yourself with your blanket and refused to talk with him for the rest of the night.

Needless to say, it carried on until the next day. You woke up, washed up, and left the house without saying even a word to Hajime. And he did the same, he was right anyways. Or he believes so.

You didn't mean to, but that night, you ended up in a ramen store with a bag of sweets in your hand. You sent a text to Iwa beforehand saying you'd be home late because of work. When you ate alone then, you felt so free compared to when you ate with Iwa at home. Maybe it was the ramen but you felt your shoulders lighten after the hearty meal. It was so relieving that you found yourself back in there the next day.

And the next.

Then, come Thursday you were still there after work hours. During these days, you always found Iwa waiting for you in the living room watching random shows on TV. He would always ask if you'd already eaten even if you were sure he knew you did.

When Friday came, your feet were already carrying you towards your usual dining place before you knew it. What surprised you though is Iwaizumi standing right before the doors of your building, searching for you in the crowd. Seems like he is here to put a stop to your usual dinner galore. You sighed, already dejected to the scolding you're about to get.

“Hey,” you greeted Hajime glumly.

“Are the sweets that important?” he asks. You weren't wrong after all. He's here to berate you for losing track of your diet.

You looked up to answer him. To your surprise, his eyes weren't judging you at all. Instead they look at you with care, and something like regret laced in them. “Hajime?” you reached for his hand and held it in yours, “Is everything alright?”

"No, babe," he rested his other hand on your head making you wince slightly, “Are you alright?”

You blinked at his words, absorbing each one of it. “What?” you didn't mean to blurt it out like that but you did, so you can't take it back now.

He laughed softly although it was tainted with sadness, “I'm sorry, princess. I didn't even think of the stress you were getting from work. I let myself be swallowed by shallow things and missed to see the factors underneath your mood shifts.”

“Hey,” you squeezed his hand, “It's perfectly fine. I didn't check on you either, you know.”

He snorts, “I'm fine. At least until you grow into a monster if I keep denying you of your sweets.”

“Hajime!” you glared at him but he just answered it with a hearty laugh. It has been a while since you heard that. “I missed you.”

He smiled at the words he was waiting for you to say while snaking an arm around your shoulders. “I know. That's why we're going to the grocery to buy some stuff. So we'll never miss each other again.”
