#and some uhhhhh scrambled eggs

[twstinginthewind]

✍ Trey + choosing what kind of cake to make. Tomorrow's a very special day, after all ...

✍️ give me a word, and I'll give you a story.

Trey Clover stood in the kitchen of the Heartslabyul dormitory, gently whisking together lemon juice, sugar, and egg yolks on top of a double boiler. The steam coming from the mixture had fogged up his glasses, so he had hung them from the front pocket of his semi-official Queen of Hearts apron. He sighed and looked at the timer next to him. Fifteen minutes left of whisking, then he could add the butter. Once that was combined and the lemon curd was cooling, he could finally start the cake.

Between not really being able to see, and being so focused on his whisking, Trey didn't notice that he wasn't alone until a hand reached out to grab something in his peripheral vision. Reflexively, he reached out and swatted the offending appendage with the whisk.

"Sssss! Ah, that's hot!" a voice yelped. Trey turned and squinted. Orangey hair, large reddish blob on the side of the face, couple inches shorter than him...

"Ace Trappola? What on earth are you doing here past curfew?" Trey frowned and put his hands on his hips, in what he hoped was an imposing, Vice-Housewardenly posture. The squinting probably didn't help. Or the dripping whisk. Or the ruffled red apron. He relaxed enough to put his glasses back on, then frowned again. "You're lucky you didn't run into Housewarden Rosehearts."

"I dunno, I've had him take my head before, and I might prefer it to—" He paused to sniff the yellow substance on his wrist, and made a face. "Lemonade-flavored scrambled eggs, yuck." Ace rubbed at his arm, scraping off the gunk, and indicated a bowl on the counter. "Anyway, I wanted one of those strawberries, and you were totally zoning out, I thought. So I figured, I'd just grab one, bing bang boom, and skedaddle. I wasn't expecting to get slimed."

"It's not slime, or scrambled eggs. It's lemon curd, and," Trey gestured with the whisk, "those strawberries are for the Unbirthday cake tomorrow. No touching."

"Are you sure it's not scrambled eggs? Because it sure looks like it..." Ace indicated the double boiler.

Trey turned to face where Ace pointed, and his face went slack. The mixture that had been smooth just a minute ago had gone all lumpy and discolored, bubbling away in the top bowl. Trey groaned. "Separated. Because I stopped whisking. Of course. Thanks, Ace. There goes the lemon curd filling." He turned off the stove and slumped into a kitchen chair, holding his face in his hands. "And that was the last of the lemons, too. Now I gotta figure this out from the top."

"Hey, I'm sorry." Ace managed to force a sympathetic expression onto his face, and he awkwardly patted Trey's shoulder. "I'm sure you can figure it out, though. You're like, some kinda cake genius, right? I bet you can bang out some sorta replacement real quick."

Trey looked up at Ace, and he raised an eyebrow. "I guess you'll see the extent of my genius," he said as a smirk traveled across his face. "Because guess who's going to be my special helper to make something new?"

Ace pouted. "Can I at least get a strawberry?"

"Of course not."

tuesday again 12/19/2022

shambling along towards the new year

listening

cotton heads by caravan palace. i think this has been on every spotify wrapped playlist ive ever had. soft and comforting in a way that’s hard for me to describe. this has been part of the background music in some of the softest times of my life, winter-warm and safe and solitary noodling around on some project that involves a lot of fiddling with tiny pieces on a desk. spotify

-

reading

houston thrift stores are, predictably, awash with cowboy western novels. mostly it’s every louis l’amour or zane grey possible (no thanks)

jake logan’s SLOCUM AND THE YELLOWBACK TRAIL is number three hundred and seventy nine in the series, which is quite impressive. i am fascinated when a book attempts to transplant a cowboy into an urban environment so we’ll stick with it for a bit, despite a truly horrible sex scene describing a “rigid pole”. there were no onomatopoeia sex sounds which is both blessing and curse bc the intel SLOCUM gathered during this sex scene seemed like a completely different conversation totally unrelated to the sex he was having. she simply happened to come three times in three pages while telling him everything he needed for Next Location.

-

watching

saw several very beautiful movies in the last two weeks, one of which i liked very much.

Experiment in Terror (1962, dir. Edwards) has one of my favorite Mancini-composed pieces of music but i had never seen the movie it was from. a neo-noir man with an asthmatic rasp puts pressure on a bank teller and her teen sister to rob the bank by terrorizing them through various means. however, despite successfully playing on a lot of Womanly Fears (unexpected phone calls, driving at night, being alone) the fbi. this is perhaps a bit snide since it is extremely good at keeping the tension up through most of the runtime, the leads all did a good job imo— a letterboxed reviewer pointed out the villain played by Ross Martin has a certain chameleon-like quality from scene to scene and it is really arresting, he pops up in some unexpected places to great effect. a well-shot movie, just a hair longer than i wanted it to be, i don’t think any movie could survive the hype i built up in my head after loving than mancini piece so much, and was not quite the vibe i was looking for on the afternoon i finished it.

in a different noir with an important scene during a baseball game, Stray Dog (1949, dir. Kurosawa). everything you could possibly say about this movie has already been said. mifune is such a fucking joy to watch as a somewhat hapless young cop with a bad case of the scruples. gets his fully loaded pistol pickpocketed on the tram, sending him hither and yon during a brutally hot summer tracking down every bullet. widely available for free. fucking beautiful work of art. deeply annoying when widely acclaimed movies are actually really good

-

playing

nothing new to report, nothing i want to play has been a free epic game lately. very excited that a character ive been waiting for is dropping in genshin on…uhhhhh…tomorrow? she has sunglasses. she has a gunbrella. she can call in heavy cannon bombardment. she’s just so cute

-

making

one of the purposes of the tuesdaypost is to remind myself to expand the selection of things i do and my brain partially feels like sludge bc of the time of year and partially bc i haven’t fucking done anything more complicated than scrambled eggs or cleaning things in like two weeks

[bambiraptorx]

Another round of random ideas that might wind up in Minor Interference at some point (because the editing for the next chapter is going... let's just say I still can't edit 6k words in one sitting):

Draxum knows a nigh-on absurd numbers of sea shanties and drinking songs in at least half a dozen languages. He will not admit when why or how he learned any of them

He actually has a lot of random-seeming skills that he's learned over the course of his life (one of the pros of being well over a thousand years old) from juggling to playing guitar. This man has a resume to rival Barbie's is what I'm saying

Mikey has a fascination with the weird side of psychology, especially the darker case studies and more ethically questionable experiments. You want to hear an in-depth analysis of Phineas Gage's life and the unfair way that media has characterized him, complete with the details of how the rod went through his head? no? too bad he's already infodumping

Raph, between being the oldest brother and having the highest metabolism, definitely ends up eating the most leftovers. He has the highest tolerance in the family for weird/gross/possibly expired food and doesn't get bothered much by things that would make most people disgusted.

That being said, there's still a handful of foods that he absolutely refuses to touch, such as scrambled eggs and oatmeal (it's too hard to get the texture right)

Donnie's favorite way of listening to music is blasting it through several speakers at once so loudly that he can feel the vibrations in his chest.

On a related note, he's had his lab sound-proofed since he was eleven because he will do this whenever he's working, whether or not his hearing aids are on or not

Admittedly Splinter isn't going to show up in the fic for uhhhhh a while, but he's still pretty important in his kids' lives and shares traits with them. Donnie got his love of eighties music from Splinter, for example

Concept Cuddles in the Kitchen

Smut Nudity / HJ / semi non consensual / BJ /

I yawned and my beat to wake up even if I was pretty tired, I stood barefoot in my kitchen in my boxers and loose blue t-shirt I'd slept in less, But I don't know. Even though the house was empty with my mum and gran on holiday it still felt weird coming downstairs naked. So I just slipped on some stuff from my floor I was making scrambled eggs in the microwave and I was way too tired for anything more advanced than that. I was so tired and honestly exhausted from the last few days but I couldn't help my smile as I heard her little footsteps down the stairs

"Good morning sweetheart" I smiled but no answer came She merely wrapped her arms around me and pushed herself against my back "awwww you still sleepy?" I asked as she was barefoot in a pair of my boxers and my sleeve shirt even if the sleeves were far too big for her and she balled them around her hands She didn't answer she just softly pet me as we cuddled so I continued on with breakfast until her hands moved "y/n?" I questioned as she began grasping my pecks "uuuuuuuhhh? Okay, whatever makes you happy sweetheart" I chuckled until she groped because tickled "Hey! Cut it out!' I complained putting the bowl back in the microwave for the next round of cooking but as I did her hands slipped down and into my boxers half of me wanted to argue, I was still so tried and honestly at this point I was probably shooting dust, and we're in the kitchen my mum finds out we did anything in here she'll kill me, but the other half of me didn't care just melting into her touch again "y/n what are you doing?" I asked but she didn't answer she merely grasped my shaft and began her merciless jerking making me grip the countertop hard "uhhhhh! Y/n…. Y/n stop-" I began

"Hurry up Jake you only have till the timer goes off" she smirked in my ear speeding up her hand

"Uuuughhh! Uuuuuuuhhh! That's only three minutes!" I argued but she meerly giggled I did my best to bite my lip but fuck it was so hot having her do this to me "uuuhhh y/n, y/n… uuhhhhhh please I'm close!" I gasped

She smirked and turned me to face her sweet bedhead

"Umm hello sweetheart" I smirked trying to kiss her back she tugged down my boxers her hand sat on my hip wrapping around my back the other on my now fully exposed shaft working hard to pleasure me I gripped the counter and her waist enjoying every second moving my hand up a little to cop a feel on her breasts given she had no bra "uuuuuuuhhh y/n! Please!" I begged my hips bucking towards her hand in desperation She smiled and gave my cheek a kiss before moving to her knees and taking me in her mouth "Oh my god! Uuuuuuuhhh uuuuuuuhhh uuughhhh! Y/n! Y/n! You can't do this to me it's too good- uuuuuuuhhh I've got nothing left to give y/n you've made me cum so much this weekend I've lost track, I don't think I can sweetheart"

She pulled back a moment to lick my head "ohhh I'll make you Jake" she smirked before deep throating me

"Oohh holy…shit! Uuuuuuuhhh uuughhhh! Yes! Yes! Y/n! Uuuuuuughhhhhhh!" I groaned as I came into her mouth she happily swallowed and licked me clean as I pretty much collapsed on the counter as she returned to her feet with a cute smile

"Breakfast?"

"Humm yes sweetheart" I smirked giving her head a kiss and giving her a cuddle "Must you turn me into a moaning mess every half hour?"

"Yes" she smiled helping with breakfast

Dadrius Week 2022 Chapter 4: Free Space

“How do you know how to do that?”

Darius paused, halfway through shaking spice into a bowl of griffin eggs. Hunter was perched on a bar stool at the counter, watching him. “Do what?”

“Just… dump stuff in a bowl and make a meal. I mean, you don’t have a recipe out. And even if you had it memorized, you’re not measuring.”

Darius rolled the spice jar in his hand. “Cooking isn’t an exact science. That’s what baking is for. Cooking, once you get a few basics down, is something you can change. Play around with. It’s as versatile as abomination magic.”

Hunter made an ‘ick’ face. “You don’t, uhhhhh… put abomination in there, do you?”

“No, I don’t put abomination matter in there. It’s a metaphor. Look, come here.”

Hunter slid off of the barstool and stood at his side, peering at the bowl.

“Right now, I’m making scrambled griffin eggs. One egg for every two people. There’s a splash of milk in there—I don’t know the exact amount, I just know that when I whisk it together, it should turn this shade of yellow, approximately. If it’s a little darker or a little lighter, it doesn’t matter, it’ll still turn out well. Salt and pepper are a must, just a dash, I already added it in. After that, I can do whatever I want with it. Some things will taste better than others in there, but experimentation is part of it.” He tossed Hunter the spice jar in his hand, and the teen caught it with a slight fumbling.

“Charlic Powder?”

“Gives it a bit of a kick. Don’t let the name fool you, it doesn’t make it horribly spicy, just adds some flavor. It goes well in almost anything. Again, just a dash.” Darius turned the stove on medium heat and poured just a little grease in it, swirling it around in the pan. “Grease keeps the eggs from sticking to the pan,” he explained, “Most things you cook on the stove require medium heat, unless you’re trying to boil something. If I really wanted to get fancy, I’d sauté some vegetables first to mix in with the eggs, or fold cheese in later in the cooking.” Darius poured the eggs into the pan, pushing at them with a wooden spoon. “For now, I’ll just wait for the eggs to start cooking, then break them apart as they do so that they scramble.” He offered the spoon to Hunter. “You want to give it a go? I’m going to go get ready for the morning.”

Hunter took the spoon like it was a poisonous snake, poking at the eggs.

I’m sure it’s fine.

Darius traipsed up the stairs, changing out of his pajamas, washing his face, moisturizing, and bewitching his hair to its usual bun-like appearance. He sniffed the air.

Is something…

Oh, no.

He poked his head in the kitchen. Hunter was still at the stove, a pan of eggs on medium heat. They were still liquid. Darius glanced at the sweat beading Hunter’s forehead, then at the pillar of smoke coming from the sink. Then back to Hunter.

“You burned them, di—”

“I burned them,” Hunter confirmed, “I’m sorry, Darius, I thought if I turned up the heat, they’d cook faster, but I just messed them up, I’m making new ones, I swear I put all the right stuff in there, and I’ll wash the other pan and get all of the charred bits off—”

“Hunter, slow down. Hey. That’s pretty much the most basic, regular mistake you can make in cooking. Things have an assigned heat for a reason, turning up the heat usually results in burning, or cooking the outside but not the inside.” Darius grabbed a towel, wrapping it around the handle of the smoking pan and filling the pan with water and a dash of soap. “Dish cleaning 101? We’re going to let this soak before you try to clean it, alright? It’ll make getting the burned parts off easier.”

“Sorry,” Hunter mumbled again.

“At least you didn’t set off the fire alarm, right.”

“You’re not mad?”

“Not really. Mildly irritated at most. Hey, you started a new batch of eggs, on your own, good for you. Looks like you were paying attention to most of what I said.”

Hunter flushed. “Sorry.”

“Quit saying that. Once was enough to get the point.”

Hunter flinched. “S—I mean, okay. Okay. I’ll stop.”

Darius sighed. Always harder than it needed to be with him, wasn’t it? He’d known it would be getting into this, though. “I’m not angry,” he repeated.

“I know.”

One eyebrow quirked up. “Do you?”

Hunter shrugged, silently tending the eggs. Darius was pleased to note the way he broke them apart with quick, purposeful movements, pushing them around so that they couldn’t congeal into a whole again. “You’re good at that.”

“Sure, says the burnt pan in the sink.”

“Mistakes are how we learn, Little Prince. And from now on, I think you’ll follow the specified heats of recipes?”

“Yeah,” he mumbled.

“So it was a mistake worth making. I think we’ll both survive the extra five minutes added to our breakfast wait time.” Darius leaned against the counter at a disgruntled howl from Eber. “Don’t listen to him, he’s exaggerating.”

A smile flickered across Hunter’s face. “Are you sure? Sounds like he’s dying.”

“He can go outside and catch his own breakfast if he is,” Darius replied serenely, “You keep up what you’re doing.”

“Not burning another pan just to try and feed Eber faster.”

“Exactly.”

[setoslut]

Can I request Kaiba headcanons where he unintentionally makes the reader laugh when he talks. They just think his manner of speech is funny. Like he could be threatening them and they'd still laugh. It's not that they don't respect him, far from it. But that dry cut speech delivery is on point. Maybe Mokuba notices he eggs on Yugi's group more often when they're around

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~I love this idea so much like- I hope I captured the right aspect of it all, and that you enjoy it!! And it not shoot me a message and I’ll re do it!! •~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Characters: kaiba, mentions of mokuba + yugi gang

Time Period: Battle City

Warnings: none

Kaiba:

okay so this is set in battle city ish times

Okay so seto and mokuba are walking around together, y’know, patrolling and looking for locator cards for Kaiba ect

B u t

Kaiba keeps going back around to areas that yugi and the gang are

So mokuba is sus

Why do they keep passing yugi and the gang?

Y/N’s there?

“Ah well if it isn’t yugi”

Ah shit, here we go again

Oh back round we go

Y/N isn’t there?

S N E E R

But then he sees you on your one??

P e r f e c t

“L/N”

Ofc bb makes his way over to you, he wants to see you laugh that heartfelt laugh

he sees you smiling in amusement, and is racking his immaculate brain for reasons why

“well if it isn’t Mr CEO, Seto kaiba”

Even though that sentence is said in a heartfelt way lil mokie still gets a little apprehensive of his big bro 🤩

“Hey, Y/N! Show my big brother some respect, he owns the biggest company in the world!”

B a b e y 🥺

“Oh mokie, of course I respect your brother”

Kaiba’s eyes are wide, lips slightly parted, heart pounding and head scrambled

“As you said, he does own the biggest company in the world, and that’s not an easy feat to accomplish”

You’re praising him, praising, him

Kaiba is s t r u g g l i n g to keep his blush down

No cap ❌🧢

“But his manner of speech can be quiet amusing” you try to stifle a laugh yet it still comes out just a lil 🙈

Wether he’s interested in you or not

No one gets away with picking at THE Seto Kaiba.

Periodt

“How dare a pitiful creature such as your self belittle me, say anything crude to me again and I’ll have you removed from the face of the earth”

He’s blew it. He just knows he has. Why did he say that? He just couldn’t keep his big mouth shut-

What- was that laughter??

Coming out of his thoughts Kaiba sees you doubled over laughing

But. Didn’t he just threaten you??

“You sure know how to make a person laugh Seto:)”

H u h

Just let Y/N finish talking man gheez 😤

“But seriously, I respect you, a lot, and I know even though you pick on my friends a bit, you have a massive heart that’s locked away with only mokuba having the key to enter”

What do they know? They don’t know anything about me or mokuba, they’re all the same.

“But I want to obtain that key too, to show you how much other people love and care for you”

Care? Love?

How could anyone but mokuba understand him?

You bring your hand to his cheek

“Let me love and respect all of you, and help you fix the manner of which you talk in-“

“But i like to hear you laugh”

Okay

Hold up

Wait a damn minute

Did he just say he likes to hear you laugh??

Ofc lil mokie pipes up to back up his big bro 🙈

“It’s true! Seto always has this soft smile on his face when he stares at you when you laugh! I’ve seen it!”

Uhhhhh

‘A’ for effort?? 😅😅

You can literally feel the heat radiating off kaiba’s cheeks, even if you can’t physically see it unless you squint-

Even if your blush is veryyyyy apparent 😳

Which Kaiba adores 🙈

“Then I’ll be sure to stare right into Seto’s eyes as he talks about his day and his problems in the funny way he talks; sound like a plan mokuba?”

The rapid nod of lil mokies head is enough for you and kaiba both

Seems like you two will be spending a lot of time together for the rest of the tournament and possibly the rest of your lives 🙈

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Okay I’m super sorry for not posting this last night:( I was on the track to posting it last night but I really didn’t like how the head canon was going and I didn’t like anything about it so I had to restart the whole head canon so it’s a day late-

Super sorry about the wait:(

[sp1c3-r4ck-synd1c4t3]

multi ask bonanza:

food and drink you most want to try?

what makes a side character compelling?(examples and why?)

In your opinion list some perfect examples of how a story should conclude

best scent for shampoo/soap?

try to elaborate something you can't wrap your head around/understand

Things you never did but that occupy your brain atleast once a week(like projects or creative ideas not so much regrets)

How many ways can you cook an egg?

I want to try my boyfriend @the-lion-roars ‘s jam. For drink, I’ll say Baja Blast. There’s a lot of hype.

Side character’s are defined by having their own separate arcs from the main characters. Their short presence should build the world and convince the reason that the goals of the main characters are not the only thing to go after in this universe. Side characters should have their own wants and motivations, and communicate that all in a short time. The Fate series is very good at this, as every character wants the omnipotent wish-granter called The Grail for their own purposes, but it’s one use only so only whoever wins gets it, leading to interesting clashes where both parties cannot afford to lose for very different reasons. Archer of Black, Chiron, wants the Grail to regain his immortality, but his arc is him clashing with his former student, Rider of Red, Achilles, as they argue with fists and weapons who is stronger, the master or the learner. Their arcs are self contained, rarely intersecting with the main characters of Seig, Ruler, and Rider of Black, Astolfo. So uhhhhh, they gotta have their own desires and separated arcs, ideally with other side characters. They must communicate what they’re about quickly, as they don’t have the benefit of having the whole story be about them.

I have literally no opinion on scented hygiene products. Everything I own is unscented. That’s a boy quality I never dropped.

I don’t understand tone. My voice is completely monotone like 70% of the time, and I’ll need to actively add tone to the things I’m saying, which I forget to do. A lot. I’ll often give “compliments” where I say things that change very much based on tone. If o say something “is not bad” in a monotone, then that’s an insult, implying that I had expected it to be bad. If I say it in a happy tone, then it’s a compliment. As it means it’s good. I also don’t emote good the same 70% of the time, leading to people having no idea what I mean when I talk. When I’m with friends or doing something I actually like tho it makes me talk with tone and emote.

A few years ago I decided to make a Pokémon rom hack. My own region, my own characters, my own Pokémon. Then I dropped the project around when I got PTSD’d. I didn’t have the space for it. Fortunately I’ve had a lot of therapy, and I’ve dealt with a lot of the external stuff, and I’m much healthier. I’ve put a lot of work into it now, and I’m gonna work on it in my free time while I’m farming. Gotta occupy the winters somehow.

Scrambled, poached, over easy, sunny side up, over difficult, fried, benedict, quiche, omelette, French, sidewalk, rice, roll, Pad Thai. rancheros. 15.

Thank you so so so much for this massive list, I had a great time answering it all

EGGS. THAT IS ALL. They've become a Staple in this house. I found this like half written in my drafts so I'm gonna Finish it.

These are excellent on their own or in a warm tortilla with salsa, or on toast!!

You need:

- 6 eggs

- a splash of milk (almond milk works fine)

- Like a T or two of olive oil

- UhhhhH like a really big handful of sharp cheddar cheese

- 1/2 a green pepper

- 1/2 an onion

- a small handful of mushrooms

- a clove or two of garlic OR garlic powder

- cumin

- paprika

- ginger

- curry powder

- tumeric (just a little, it's already in the curry powder. But it's prettyyy)

- salt

OK SO!!! Chop all ur veggies, beat your eggs with your milk.

Medium/medium high heat. Sautee all your veggies in the olive oil. (I generally put onions and garlic first, then peppers, then mushrooms) Once they're all soft, add all your spices to taste. I kind of just sprinkle a layer of each one on there. Maybe like a tsp of each? Idfk. Wing it.

THEN pour in your eggs. Wait a little for a base to form, then stir occasionally to scramble. Once they start solidifying like in the picture, fold in the cheese. BAM DONE ENJOY UR EGGS.

The whole cooking process takes like idk 15 minutes? You just want the eggs to be solid. If you go too long, though, the water will start to evaporate and pool around the eggs. If that happens, no biggie! Just soak em on a paper towel ^^

If you wanna make it a breakfast burrito, lightly fry a tortilla in some olive oil and just put the eggs in there. Salsa if you want. Or just toast some bread and make it a sandwich.

ENJOY. :3

all of your writing is spectacular I just wanted to let you know that your ficlet about bully being attracted to dex and telling nursey about it has uhhhhh STOLEN my mind, body, and soul frfr. so if you ever did happen to continue it there's at least one person (me) who might actually just. lose it. have a nice day!!

thank you so much!! you’re so sweet for this message and i apologize for not responding for a long time, i was going to respond a few weeks ago with a ramble fic about how i would continue weewoo weewoo as a thank you, but then some technical difficulties occurred and i lost what i’d written and got frustrated and didn’t retry, until now i guess??

i’m going to let myself forget about how much i liked the original and try and explain, if i were to continue that idea (which i don’t have the motivation to do for real, unfortunately :( ), how i would do it

first off, nursey would go full ass Unchill to the max and panic and offer bully help in, ehem, fucking dex.

bully would be like ??? you just said that could be a bad idea??

but i also said it could be a good one, nursey would say, drunk and panicking further.

long story short, bully takes him up on his offer and the really fuckery begins.

so the next morning nursey wakes up fairly hungover, as after the whole thing in the reading room, he went off and got suitably plastered. dex wakes him up with a plate of mushy eggs (a dish his grandmother made for him as a kid that also works very well at quelling hangovers) and while nursey moans over it and proposes marriage to dex’s grandmother, a frequent occurrence, dex tells him, confused, that bully is downstairs waiting for him

then nursey promptly remembers his promise and curses himself and bully and dex for being so damn pretty this early in the morning

nursey has dex send bully up to his room and, in between mouthfuls of eggs and toast, explains his completely ad-libbed plan to bully. the gist of this plan is that while nursey tries to dig and see if dex is in fact dtf, bully will try to subtly insinuate to dex that he is already dtf

bully is, obviously, not very impressed with this plan.

he decides, without telling nursey, that he will go along with it, partly in the unlikely chance that it actually works and he gets over this thing he has about dex and can actually just be the dude’s friend (he spent the night sorting through his feelings and decided that he isn’t romantically attracted to dex, that he wants to be friends but also the dude is like really hot– when he tells nursey this nursey blinks dumbfounded, as it took him about two years to sort through his feelings for dex not one night and he’s not even really sure he’s acknowledged them fully)

the other part of the reason bully goes along with this is because, well. it seems like nursey put a lot of thought into it and like?? cares?? and maybe bully wants to make friends. a little. just a little. the dude’s like p weird, but seems nice, so whatever.

SO the plan commences and nursey spends the first two weeks trying to work up the nerve to ask dex if he finds bully attractive while sending bully to kegsters in tight t-shirts and having him chat dex up in the shower.

in the first two weeks, both nursey and bully realize some things

nursey realizes that he has absolutely no idea how to woo dex and also that those feelings he hasn’t really fully acknowledged are maybe possibly something more significant than the guy has really pretty laughs

bully, on the other hand, realizes that nursey is stupidly into dex and, after all the extra time chatting with the dude, dex feels just about the same way. though dex is much chiller about the whole thing, in bully’s opinion.

dex remains unaware of any schemes, but also really confused about why bully wanted to talk strategy in the showers??

after the two week mark, nursey decides to try harder because he promised and bully is a waffle and he deserves the help (he also decides to repress harder, but he ignores that part because, well. repression)

bully decides that he is going to get his two stupid upperclassmen together because he’s a p good dude. he also decides to ask out the freckly ginger in his writing class because dude’s got needs, okay?

the next time nursey tries to set up bully (”help the guy bake! he loves cooking and he and bitty bond all the time, but since bitty’s been restricted for thesis reasons, he’s been all by himself :((”) bully texts nursey for help and has him come downstairs just as bully gets a surprise message from louis that he’s stuck in his shower again and has to run out

dex, being in the middle of a pie, asks nursey if he wants to help. because why not??? bully was supposed to be helping him and if nursey’s already here…

nursey nods forcefully and rolls up his sleeves.

they spend the next hour making somewhat of a mess, bantering about something funny chowder did on the bus last week, and creating a slightly lopsided but thoroughly delicious pie. they eat it together, before it’s really cooled enough, while watching an hgtv show. nursey grins at the side of dex’s face while he complains about the choices the showrunners make and all around has a good time.

then he gets guilty because he’s supposed to be helping bully not himself!! what a bad upperclassman he is!!! bad nursey!!

bully face palms, but like emotionally. he’s too cool to physically do it.

queue montage of other dates meant for bully that he intentionally ruins to get nursey to take his place, followed by nursey’s happiness and guilt, and dex’s concurrent happiness with mild confusion.

months go by and nursey and dex don’t actually get together even though they’ve technically been dating forever and finally bully loses it.

“you’re in love with him!” he yells, over nursey trying to explain the next phase in the plan to him.

nursey blinks. bully’s voice had never gone above inside-voice level before.

“what.”

bully huffs. “i get it, dude. i got out my thing about him months ago with alex from my writing class. but i can’t keep watching you try to set me up with him when you’re obviously into the dude.”

“i, uh, i’m not– haha– i don’t– um–”

bully stares flatly. “he loves you too.”

nursey falls out of his chair. bully shakes his head. so unchill.

“he’s what.”

bully grabs his bag. “you’re welcome,” he says, pulling out his phone to call alex and update him about the whole mess. dude’s actually p cool. and p good in bed, too.

then nursey scrambles to find dex and see if it’s true and it is and they kiss or whatever and it’s hella cute and they thank bully at their wedding and everyone lives happily ever..

also an alternate version where it works and bully and dex start hooking up and DRAMA ensues but i guess that will have to be another post because i’ve got to get to bed my dudes lol

The Gentleman

Victor x Reader

1900 words

After the events of LFG Christmas party, you awake up to find yourself in unfamiliar surroundings. What happened last night?  Who’s bed is this? Where are MY clothes? 

This is what happens after my story  A Christmas Invitation so I suggest reading that before this if you have not all ready.

Warning: NSFW (barely), FOOD PORN, heavy petting

“uhhhhh” you groan while stretching out your body after a long peaceful sleep. You are cradled by the purest form of comfort.  Eyes still closed, you run your palms across the silky feel of the most exquisite sheets you have ever caressed.

Opening your eyes, they flutter as they slowly adjust to the sun light gleaming through partly folded curtains of an unfamiliar room.

“Where am I?? you grab you head. “What happened last night” you grumble. Your head pounds as you sit up to take in your surroundings. You are in a large stark white bedroom, there is a large black marble fireplace searing across from the bed, no wonder the room was nice a toasty as opposed to the frozen tundra out the window. The bed was large with a beautiful dark obsidian headboard, the king sized mattress was wrapped in thin silver silk sheets, the epitome of luxury, they felt like something you could only imagine would be found on the beds of modern day kings and queens, and the mattress caressed and molded to your body as if sleeping on supple clouds.The room was immaculate, the color pallet was black, white & grey , and everything was prim & in its proper position. Although something on the night stand caught your eye. Hiding behind the lamp was a cute orange shiba ina doll.

 Is this Victors house? Am I in Victors bed? Did we …….? your thought was spinning out of control. You sprang up, the sheets fall off your body and you realize that you are not in your costume from last night, you were in a cute tabby cat pajama top with no bottoms. 

The last thing you could remember from that party was Victor showing you that view. Everything else was fuzzy. maybe I shouldn’t have had that third drink you thought looking around frantically for some pants.

*knock knock knock* You jump to attention with the sound at the bedroom door. 

“_____ it is 10 a.m. don’t you think it is time to get up” said the coarse voice behind the door.

Still in a panic you open a different door in the room to find a large master bathroom, on the floor you find the bottoms to match the pajama shirt you are wearing. Desperately you put on the pants right as the door opens. In walks Victor, he was in black stripped pajamas, his hair was still a bit wet from being fresh out of the shower.

“If you don’t get up now your breakfast will get cold” he asserted. Victor was holding a tray, he sat it down on the side table, walked over to the covers and genitally pulled them back, but the girl was not there. He turned to look at the bathroom door to find a crimson faces girl peaking at him through the door way.

“Are you hiding in there?”

“I…… I’m not hiding”

“You have a dumb look on your face, it suits you well” Victor teased “ Come your breakfast is getting cold. Victor watched as the girl came out of the bathroom, climbed up into the bed and proceeded to hide under the covers.

“Victor is this your bed?” you muttered, terrified to look him in the eye.

“Idiot, who else’s bed could it be?” he rolled his eyes

“Did you….. I mean did we….. uh?” you mutter apprehensively 

Victor stares at you with intense sorrowful eyes. “Are you saying you don’t remember, could it have been that forgettable? I know it was my first time but I thought I did a good job. I assumed it was your first time too, wasn’t it.”

You started to feel yourself lose consciousness. You have dreamed of what your first time with a man would be like. You wanted it to be special for there to be butterflies,teddy bears, ginkgo leaves, or roses SOMETHING. Not some drunken night with your boss after a office party. The look on Victors face was so somber, a proud man like him would be heart broken if you told him he was terrible in bed, even if it was his first time. HOLY SHIT IT WAS VICTOR FIRST TIME at this point you had to say something to make him feel better.

“Oh yeah of course I remember. You know my brain can be slow to start up in the morning, you’ve seen me in early meetings. It was really wonderful”, you lie as chill bumps emerge up and down your spine. I” think we both did great for our first time.” At this point your face is officially a tomato.

Victor’s face goes from melancholy to his iconic poker face. “Yes it was my first time, my first time bringing home an idiot that drank to much, passed out and puked all over her clothes. I told you to slow down, you know you can’t handle your liquor.”

You are still smiling awkwardly at Victor up until his words begin to register in your mind. RIP your soul leaves your body Your body recoils from him in embarrassment, pulling the covers over yourself determined to hide from him forever. “I thought we had sex but this is so much worst” word spills from your mouth before your brain has time to fully process them, “OMG” you pop from under the cover “not that sleeping with you would have been bad I just thought that is what hap…..” Victor places a finger over your mouth, then chuckled “Dummy, I know what you meant, it is alright I am just glad you are feeling better. You were pretty sick after the party now come eat so you can get your strength back.” 

He places the tray in front of you, then uncovers the steaming hot breakfast. There is a white cheddar & spinach egg white scramble, turkey bacon as well as some avocado toast, strawberry jam with freshly squeezed orange juice.

It all smelled so wonderful, completely forgetting all of your recent transgressions you start to dig in. Just as you imagined it was spectacular. UwU

After breakfast Victor gives you some alone time so that you can wash up. In the bathroom there is even a new pink tooth brush for you to use. Once you are done cleaning yourself up on the bed a new light blue blouse and a pair to dark brown jeans are on the bed for you to wear. The clothes were your styles and a perfect fit. Is there anything Victor is not good at? 

You walk down the stairs to see Victor sitting on a chase lounge reading his morning paper. 

“Thank you so much for the clothes, how did you know my sizes?”

“I sized you up years ago” Victor responded without even looking up from his article.

“So what else do you remember from last night?” Victor’s outer appearance was his usual deadpan expression, but on the inside his mask was cracking. The girl had seem receptive before, but was it only because she was intoxicated. For the first time in a while Victor begun to second guess his decision to be upfront with his heart. 

“The night is coming to me in pieces, I remember you leading me to the elevator, taking me to your office showing me that view, then you……”  The Kiss Your face turns bright pink as the kiss with Victor last night crosses your mind.

“Anything else?” Victor encourages. His brow arches in reaction to the sudden change in color to your face.

“Uh no….. nope nothing…. nothing else.” Your voice goes up two octaves, and slight beads of sweat begin forming on your brow.

Victor places down his paper. His eyes gleam with a seductive look as he get up an slowly saunters close to you.  Unlike his usual poker face,  is expression was bewitching. The closer he move toward you the further back you stepped, taking one final step you tumbled over onto the steps. 

Victor laughed “Are you afraid of me? I am not going to bite you dummy.” He kneels down in front of you “Now let me help you remember the events from last night.”

Victor leans over gently places his hand behind your neck, his deep gaze into your irises arose  a warm tingly feeling in your stomach. Then in one smooth motion his soft lips caressed your mouth, the taste of mocha on his tongue converges with the sweet mint on your own. Pulling you in close, firmly pressing his chest against yours. Your heart was beating in your throat, the heat from Victors body was cause your body to sweat. The goose bumps from his touch were to much to handle, and you began to shiver.

“Victor please stop, we…… we can’t……”

Victor quickly pulled away. “I’m sorry, I guess it was the alcohol last night. I would  never want to do anything to make you feel uncomfortable.” His facial expression became so somber, Victor thought that his worst fears had become a reality. 

“Oh no what I mean is…..” avoiding direct contact with Victor eyes, you began fidgeting with the buttons on your sleeves “ I have never done anything like this before, I just don’t want to do it here on the stairs.”

Victor looked at the girl whom he had loved for so long, the innocents on her face was so pure. He stood up, bent down and cradled her in his arms, and began walking up the steps.

“Victor, haha what are you doing? Put me down I am not a baby.” you giggled nervously. He pushed the bedroom door open with his right foot, softly laid you down on the bed, removed his shirt, ran his finger through your hair & “You are my baby?” NOSEBLEED

Who is this guy? Could this be the same stern CEO that I have know all this time? He straddled you placing his left hand behind your head & his right was in laced in your fingers.  His kisses became more wistful, his tongue playing in and out of your mouth. Your body was on fire, this was the first time a man had been on top of you this way, everything was foreign to you.

The hotter your body got you couldn’t help but want Victors hands to touch more of you. Feeling this weight on you your body began to just go with the flow. You wrapped your arms around him stroking the smooth firm muscles on his back. Your body start writhing around in anticipation of what he would do next. 

Victor proceeded to kiss your face then, slowly moving down to your neck, when his tongue nipped the fleshly are near your collar bone you let out a shameful moan. Victor was a very attentive lover and quickly doubled down on that spot, licking, nibbling and sucking on your new discover “spot”. Instinctively your fingers clawed there way into his back leaving etches of pleasure in there wake. Your legs began to part as if inviting their new found admirer inside.

“Seem like a certain someone is getting excited, I like your enthusiasm, but I have been waiting along time to just kiss you like this. I am a gentleman I don’t need everything all at once. We can save the rest for another time.”

1. “I need you”

David doesn’t really know what he’s doing, as it turns out.

Trying to be romantic and cook breakfast for your boyfriend is a lot harder than it seems, especially considering the fact that David’s lived off ramen and pasta for the past couple years.

He’s struggling his way through making scrambled eggs. Matteo watches him bustle around the kitchen as David pretends to know what he’s doing.

Okay, so maybe David mostly relies on Laura to do the cooking. It’s just that, she’s older than him, and Mom was able to teach her cooking before they left home.

He can’t show weakness though, not after he’d promised his boyfriend the breakfast of champions.

After David freezes in place for longer than five seconds, Matteo turns to look at him from the table he’s sat at.

“You good?” Matteo muses, a smirk on his face.

“Ja,” David squeaks, cursing himself as his voice cracks.

Matteo raises his brows in suspicion. They’ve been together long enough for Matteo to know when David’s full of shit.

“Mhm,” David confirms, this time making conscious effort to not let his voice crack. Instead, he turns to the fridge to grab some vegetables they’d bought last night to chop up. Big mistake.

The pan on the stovetop begins to smoke and hiss loudly. David curses.

He hurries toward the pan, grabbing the spatula to try and asses the damage. The smoke fills his eyes, and he flinches back.

“Okay, fine,” David says, pulling the pan from the stovetop to avoid casualties. “I need you.”

Matteo laughs loudly as he gets up from his chair to help David with the eggs. David hands over the spatula, and Matteo flips over the eggs.

And of course, they’re so burnt that they’re black underneath.

“Fuck,” David breathes, feeling his face burn.

Matteo giggles, reaching over to turn the burner off, before steering David away from the hot stove. He winds his arms around David’s shoulders and hugs him gently.

“Ugh,” David sighs, wrapping his own arms around Matteo’s waist, burrowing his face into Matteo’s neck. “I really wanted to impress you.”

Matteo huffs out another laugh. “You managed to do that a long time ago,” he replies, pulling back so that he can look David in the eyes again. “The fact that you can’t cook doesn’t change that fact.”

“Hey, fuck you,” David retorts with no heat. “I’ll have you know that my ramen-making skills are phenomenal.”

“I’m sure they are,” Matteo teases, pressing a quick kiss to David’s lips. “Shall we make some Pasta à la Luigi? Leave it to the real cook in the relationship?”

“Just because you’re Italian doesn’t mean you’re good at cooking!” David whines, but kisses his boyfriend once more. “Anyone can cook!”

Matteo winks at him, turning around to start making his famous meal. David kicks under his foot lightly, mimicking what Matteo had done to him all those weeks ago.

“Fuck you,” Matteo says teasingly, looking behind him to send David a smile.

God, David loves this boy.

Send me prompts yo!

Would you care if your partner did drugs etc? If it was legal here and just for medical purposes, I'd be fine with just weed. Otherwise, I treat the idea the same way as I would a tobacco smoker: no.

It didn't take too long, though it was really because the event left me believing we were, without question, getting back together once we are independent enough to live on our own/mutually move out. It's still possible we may, should life just play out where it works out, but it also was much easier to accept because we're still completely best friends. Have you ever lived with a girlfriend/boyfriend? Not on paper, but pretty much. How old were you when you first smoked weed? But I never have. What is one thing that you’ve done that a lot of people said you couldn’t? Idk; I don't have a lot of unsupportive people in my life. Who was the last person you had a deep conversation with? Mom. What was the last reason you cried? I listened to a song that deeply triggered my PTSD. Have you ever hated a song, and then later on found that you liked it? Yup, however that works. Did you have a good childhood? It was mostly normal, I guess? Do you play games on your PC? Just World of Warcraft right now. I started Alien: Isolation and Resident Evil 6 FOREVER ago, I just haven't had the motivation to finish either. Do you have a formspring? It's familiar, but I'm actually not sure what that even is. Do you know anyone that is racist? Welcome to the South. Do you have an active sex life? No. Are you defensive about anything? Yes. Have you ever driven 80+ mph? No. Have you ever changed a lightbulb? Yes. Have you ever gotten a bullseye in darts/archery? Darts, possibly. Never done archery. Do you have a Wii? Yeah. Do you own any animals that absolutely hate you? No. What brand is the computer you’re currently on? Acer. Are there any piercings you want but you’re too afraid it will hurt? The pain factor doesn't keep me away from piercings, so no. Do you think ear gauging is gross? When it gets to a certain width, to me anyway, it's pretty ew. I don't judge at all about someone having them, but it can get to a point where it just isn't appealing imo. Are you afraid of anyone in your family? Who and why? No. What’s the last scary movie you saw? Ummmm idk. It's been a long-ass time. I'm sure something in theaters, but I really don't know. Why aren’t you friends with your last ex? We are friends. When did you last spend the night at a friend’s house? A year ago when I was at Sara's. Did you ever watch 2Girls1Cup? Fuck no, I've never even looked into what exactly it is, but I know enough to know I don't wanna fucking see it. Do you have anxiety or depression? *shrugs* Why not both? Have you ever lived in a mobile home? No. Have you ever had your bedroom in a basement? Never even had a basement to begin with lol. Friend asks you to hide drugs, booze etc for them, do you do it? lol no. Animal you like to watch but sort of creeps you out: Big spiders. I particularly like writing spiders/orb weavers though, and watching big spiders eat is just fascinating. Have you entered the Lays create a flavor contest? Oh man how long ago was that??? No. Bagels or English muffins? Bagels gotta win it for me. Who is a family member you look forward to seeing on a holiday? On Christmas especially, I love seeing my niece and nephew because they're just so excited. Brings me back to what it felt like as a little kid. Are Easter baskets only for kids? No. My sisters and I each had super cute baskets that Mom would fill until like... two years ago. Now that it's just me living with her, she'll just usually buy me a candy bar or something. Do you do anything to recognize St Patrick’s Day? No. Do you think nutcracker figurines are creepy or cool? No opinion. Speaking of nuts, do you like them? For the most part, no. There are instances however where I can enjoy like little pieces of them with other kinds of food, ex. chocolate. What do you do when you are nervous? Dead giveaway: I'm kneading/playing with my hands. I pace naturally, but I do so more frequently when I am nervous. I'll have a harder time making eye contact, too. Does your family have an SUV or pick up truck? No. Which of your parents do you laugh more with? Dad. Have you ever been to an open casket wake or funeral? Wake, yes. Who mows the lawn at your house? Some guy Mom knows through the dance studio. Where do you keep your phone at night? Usually to the right of my pillow, a bit far away, and up more towards the headboard. My bed's a queen-size and it's just me, so I have room where I won't hit it. If it has to charge though, then it's on the table beside my bed. Do you feel comfortable asking your parents or grandparents for money? No in almost every case. I'm only somewhat comfortable if it's Mom and I'm asking for like a snack from the gas station or something like that. What’s the last thing you lost? My phone, I think. If you could have your own car or an apartment, which would you choose? An apartment would be entirely useless as I am in no way competent enough to live alone yet, and a car wouldn't have much use seeing as I only have my permit and STILL pretty much never drive. It'd be more useful than an apartment, though. Last time you hid, and why: Uhhhhh. I have zero clue. How do you like your eggs? I'll only ever take them scrambled with cheese. Favorite Mexican food? Quesadillas. Upcoming event you are dreading? I'm happily enjoying it right now, but in another way, I'm dreading school break ending just because I am INCREDIBLY nervous about the effects of it on my legs with the whole muscle atrophy thing. I'm scared of regressing. Do you have a favorite pen? What kind? No. Do you do more surveys during the day or night? The day. Just shampoo, or shampoo + conditioner? Just shampoo. Conditioner adds oil to your hair, and trust me, my hair does NOT need any extra oil. Scariest driver you’ve ridden with: Dad the day he had to pick Nicole and me up from school and we had a 30-minute drive home. Basically, we got home in maybe 15 or less. He was in a fucking awful mood, speeding like hell, running red lights, passing illegally... I was entirely convinced we were going to die that day. Still one of the scariest of my life. Do you think you’re smarter than the average person? If so, why? It depends on the subject matter; in areas such as English, wisdom, stuff kinda like that, honestly yeah. In areas like common damn sense and mathematics, fuck no. What was the last topic you did thorough research on? Why? Paganism. I recently found that Neo-Paganism is the closest description for my spiritual beliefs; it covers such a broad spectrum, and it emphasizes the divinity of nature, free will (so long you are not inflicting harm upon another), the equality of man and woman (plus the beauty of humanity), and one of the concepts of the "ultimate being" includes not an actual deity, but just like this... source of energy and power. I don't even know if I believe it to be conscious, it's just like... the source, and it lies within nature. I'm still doing more and more research into it as I'm thoroughly intrigued, and I continue to feel more at home with its inclusiveness to an array of interpretations. What was the last thing to upset you? So beyond just an annoyance? Probably when this random fucking Facebook post of a father sharing just how proud he was of his son for killing wolves together and sharing purely evil photographs of them playing with/posing the bloody dead bodies (which included making them "snarl" at the camera, and mind you, their mouths were full of blood) popped up on my feed for no goddamn reason. Safe to say, I left a comment and got into a fight with a backwards son of a fuck who thought it was totally kosher to kill these "vermin" and used personal attacks versus logic to try in vain to prove his point, when all he did was accomplish me seeing him as the vermin. Where did you go to the last time you left your house? My sister's house. Do you wear something on your left hand/wrist/arm without fail? Friendship ring with Sara as well as the bracelet she gave me. What is an article of clothing you would never ever wear? Stealing the last answer of jumpsuits. Will you go outside today? Probably not. Are you doing everything you can to make yourself happy? Not everything. I know I could do more. What is a phrase or a saying you try to live by? I don't think I have a set one that I always look to. I refer more to ideas, such as to be unrelenting in your goals. What is something you lie to yourself about? I don't know. I'm not good at that. What has been the best job you’ve ever had? lol What is a holiday, that is NOT celebrated in your country, that you would like to celebrate? Day of the Dead. I know some do celebrate it here, but it's more of a holiday in Mexico. Which nation’s culture (excl. your own) do you find the most interesting? Germany's, from what I remember. We learned quite a bit about them while I took it as a language. They are very serious about honesty and manners. What is something you judge about other people? How you treat others, certain aspects of ones personality (ex., arrogance), and as the previous person stated, to a certain degree anyway, moral/political/religious beliefs. What is something you do not want to discuss? I get really uncomfortable talking about sex, and though no one in my "real" life knows about it (except perhaps Mom due to an outburst during the breakup), I don't like even looking back on the Joel situation. There are also some political things I just don't want to talk about. Do you enjoy solving problems? No, shit's stressful. Are you a kinesthetic, an auditory or a visual learner? Kinesthetic, 100%. Are you an introvert, an extrovert or an ambivert? I'm a pretty strong introvert, though not as much as I once was. I can get lonely kinda quickly now, but I still NEED my alone time. Are you socially anxious or awkward? OH BOY AM I!!!!!!! Do you actually think it’s gross to talk about body functions? NO!!!!!!! This needs needs needs to be normalized because it's stuff we all endure, so we should be comfortable talking about these things, asking questions, etc. Have you ever sent a love letter? Yeah. When you look up at the sky do you ever NOT see a plane or vapor trail? Yeah. Welcome to the country. Do you wear any shoes with holes because you can’t give them up? No. When you go out to breakfast, what do you order? Pretty much always pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon. What’s the best compliment you’ve gotten from a boss/teacher? That when she came back to teaching, I was the exact kind of student she hoped for. What’s a weird or interesting nickname you gave someone? lmao the first one that came to mind was Connie's "Einnoc." Is there a phrase or mantra you repeat when you are frightened? No. What are you most envious of? Successful photographers lmao. Do you have a friend with a habit that worries you? Yes. Would you rather have coffee, cocoa, tea, or soda? UGH soda. That's my weaknesses. You could take sweets from me, but I'm pretty reliant on soft drinks. When you walk into your best friend’s room, what do you smell? I don't remember, actually... I haven't been there enough. Have you ever purposely broken something that belonged to a sibling? Wow, no. Have you ever worked at the same place as your best friend? No. Do you like to visit famous people’s homes? I've never done that, and I find it disrespectful anyway. Give celebs their privacy, goddamn. Do you take days off from shaving when you can get away with it? The only thing I shave are my armpits, and considering I don't shower everyday, yes. Every time I do take one however, I always shave. Is there anything hanging on your bathroom walls? No. If your SO agreed, would you want an open relationship? No. Have you ever slept with three people in the same bed? When? Why? At some point, yeah, but not in a romantic context. It was with friends or family when we had limited space. Does your family regularly eat sit down meals together? Pretty much never. Who would you like to slow dance with? To what song? SOBS "The Only Exception" by Paramore w/ Sara continues to sob What’s your favorite pet name someone calls you? None that I have now. If you could talk to one species of animal what would it be? Good question. I guess cats, as I have one and would love to know what he thinks. What’s the largest animal you’ve ever seen in person? An elephant, strolling RIGHT by the fence at the zoo. Have you ever used the change counting machine at a store or mall? Ohhh, I remember those! Yes. Would you give mouth to mouth to your dog to save its life? We have a dog I honestly can't stand, and this is gonna get me mentally punched, but I don't know. NO, not BECAUSE I don't like him, but I don't love him enough to deal with those germs. I don't think I could stomach doing it. If you came with a warning label, what would it say? "Is going to be uncomfortable if you say one word to her but craves friendship anyway." Have you ever tried to learn a language on your own? No. Have you ever had a pet destroy something valuable or important? The thing that upset me the most was when Teddy tore up the corner of one of my art pieces I'm most proud of. I cried. It was weird considering he never really tore up stuff... but alright then. What’s the best burger EVER? UGH I'm weak for Wendy's Baconators. Did you ever show up late for an important event? Probably at some point?

For the word thing uhhhhh rice

i kno this grosses out like...Everyone i tell this to but 

fact: i eat ketchup w rice! not All The Time, but some days when im low on groceries ill scramble some eggs, make some rice (or heat up leftover rice), and put a little ketchup in it! and guess what? it tastes Good! rice is just very Bland on its own, unless you’re seasoning it for something else, and even then it’s just Rice. so, like, a little tang and sweetness does rlly well! especially w egg! 

the only issue w me like trying to get healthier is im cutting back on rice bc like i Hate wholegrain rice i think its Nasty and if im gonna have rice i’d rather have white rice. but that’s a very filling starch and has carbs and yknow i’m not cutting carbs out completely, but i’m trying to be Careful and make more moderate choices. so, like, miss my egg and rice bowls kinda :/
