When we first started buying Raffles Hotel’s (莱佛士酒店) mooncakes many years ago, it was only retailing for like S$50+ a box. Fast forward to 2024, the price has doubled to almost S$100 for a box of eight Mini Mooncakes (迷你月饼)! Luckily, this is only a once in a year thing and many people are still willing to splurge for the occasion. To sweeten the deal and lessen the damage to the wallet, the hotel is dangling a 30% off selected credit cards discount for early bird buyers.

We skipped over the perennial favourite, the signature Champagne Truffle Snowskin Mooncake (香槟巧克力冰皮月饼) and went for two out of the five new snowskin mooncake flavours the hotel have created for this Mid-Autumn Festival. Each box of eight mini snow-skin mooncakes cost S$97, less 30% credit card discount so we paid S$67.90 each. The Chestnut & Tahitian Vanilla with Rum Truffle Snowskin Mooncake (大溪地香草栗子朗姆酒冰皮月饼) featured rich flavours of chestnut and Tahitian vanilla meld seamlessly with the creamy decadence of rum milk chocolate truffle ganache. Encased within a delicate snowskin, infused with the subtle warmth of sand ginger, each bite tantalizes the taste buds with a symphony of nutty, sweet and spicy notes.

Inspired by the vibrant flavours of a summer garden, the Sudachi & Blueberry with Gin Truffle Snowskin Mooncake (酢橘蓝莓金酒冰皮月饼) highlights the unique blend of Japanese Sudachi citrus, succulent blueberries, and refreshing lemongrass, all accented with a hint of gin. The zesty-sweet harmony, luxurious chocolate adds a touch of aromatic intrigue.

I can't understand how anyone can think/find two queer characters having consensual happy simple sex as awkward or cringe or boring. Is it homophobia or happyphobia or philophobia?

Cream 10

Exactly what it sounds like; Sonic/Ben 10 crossover au where Cream is the wielder of the Omnitrix.

-She doesn't bother with the whole secret identity thing because she's already a fairly well-known hero thanks to her adventures with the rest of the Sonic cast.

-I'm torn on whether she should find it when she's six so she can go through some of the games with it or if I should make it a post-series time skip so she can be 10 for thematic purposes

-Her unseen dad was a Plumber who fell in the line of duty, and Vanilla wasn't a Plumber but was fully aware of what he did for a living.

-As you might imagine, GUN takes issue with a child being in possession of such a powerful "weapon." Given what happened last time they took issue with something like that, nobody's particularly interested in their opinion, especially Team Dark.

Cream's Starting Playlist: -Quarterback (Tetramand) (yeah cream's nicknaming conventions are different from Ben's. Mostly) -Permafrost (Necrofriggian) -Eyesore (Black Arms) (a big part of why I'm conflicted on whether to go post-series or mid-series. can you imagine how things would go in Shadow the Hedgehog if Cream turned into this thing?) -Brainwave (Voxai) (look Chonicles isn't good but it gave me cool aliens to use and by chaos I'm going to use them) -Hijack (Galvanic Mechamorph) -Gargantula (unknown giant spider alien) -Short Circuit (Nosedeenian) -Apeshoot (unknown species based on a monkey slingshot toy) -Spin Cycle (Ferrograde) -Sea Queen (Thalassian) (while Thalassians are normally deep-sea fish, the Omnitrix has safety features that prevent Sea Queen from undergoing fatal decompression. She still can only form legs on scale-shedding day though.)

-As we all know, Eggman's first thought when encountering something new and interesting is "how can I make an evil robot out of this" and the Omnitrix is no exception. To that end he created Ovitrix, a pseudo-Gizoid like Gemerl that uses a reverse-engineered Omnimatrix (the core bit that makes the transformations happen) to turn into replicas of most of the robot designs Eggman's come up with over the years, as well as a few new ones based on some of Cream's alien forms because of course.

-Ovitrix has a black and green color scheme, while Cream's Omnitrix is orange (so it looks a bit like Mad Ben's but without the decorative spikes) since that's Her Color.

-I'm including the full rogues gallery from both continuities, though some of the human villains will get reimagined as Mobians instead and almost all of them are gonna need some tweaks to fit them into the Sonic Universe.

-well, technically I've replaced Kevin with an oc but that explanation (both the who and the why) deserves its own post

I've got other ideas for this AU but this'll do for a first post

And the person who left the comment "Why does Simcoe remind me of someone who would die from Auto-erotic asphyxia" on another of the Turn clips will be receiving my proposal of marriage in the mail on Thursday.

I don't even know if I agree with it, it's just up there in amazing YouTube comments with the person who was watching a YouTube bootleg of the Ian McKellen-Judi Dench version of Macbeth from like the 70s while high and freaking out in the comments because they realized one of the other actors was the guy who played Palpatine and also they were high.

Alright, well I finally finished these two, so their names are Blessed Cream Cookie and Vanilla Bean Cookie

As stated in a previous post, these two are supposed to be Pure Vanilla Cookie’s parents

The idea for them came from Pure Vanilla’s Story description, which has a line stating “Born from nature-blessed cream and a fragrant vanilla bean” which I then took and was like “what if I make him have parents based on both those things?” So yeah

I originally had two ideas, given that Pure Vanilla seems to have started out as a shepherd. Either he came from a family of shepherds, or given he apparently worships the Divine Light, he came from a family of religious leaders, but decided he wanted to be a shepherd and explore the world instead (which is something I took from Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist, since that’s a book I had to read and have enjoyed). Eventually though I decided to just do both, having one parent be a shepherd and the other a religious leader of some sort

You know, when it comes to their designs, I had the idea Blessed Cream was from somewhere else and Vanilla Bean was native to the land, yet ironically in the final product it looks the other way around, Blessed Cream looking Vanillian while Vanilla Bean doesn’t

Anyways, I wanted to try and divvy up Pure Vanilla’s design elements between them. For example, Blessed Cream’s eyes more resemble Pure Vanilla’s open eyes, but Vanilla Bean is the one who has closed eyes and the bottom lash. Also, BC has PV’s blue eye(s) while I gave VB the yellow (you just can’t see it), since he’s vanilla and vanilla flowers are yellow. Originally I was planning on giving BC really light yellow hair that would presumably be darkened by VB since he was always going to have dark hair, but PV’s hair is already really light, so I just made it white. But I still gave it yellow lines to indicate maybe it’s a really pale yellow. As well as giving her PV’s lines in the hair. Though I don’t think it turned out the best, likely because I don’t really do that. Ah well

Anyways, let’s talk about them

So Blessed Cream is a religious figure, devoutly following the Divine Light, though to be honest, I don’t really know religion (my family’s atheist) and so I don’t know what role exactly she’d play, though I think she’s something equating to a pastor? She’s a religious leader in the small village they live in

I gave her the marking Pure Vanilla has on his head, assuming he got it from her, though I don’t know if that’s a birthmark or some sort of marking given to him, but honestly I think it could reasonably be either way. If it’s a birthmark, assume it’s red because of Vanilla Bean

I don’t have much for her personality other than she’s a nice and very calm lady

Vanilla Bean is a shepherd, as you can probably guess. He’s very passionate about his sheep and loves them dearly, but some of them are troublemakers and it’s difficult for him to keep his eye off them, for fear of them doing dangerous things. But he still is very content with his lot in life

In terms of personality, he’s also nice and friendly, but I imagine him being much more extroverted than his wife or son, and also a bit on the goofy side

I sort of imagine these two to have had a childhood friends to lovers romance, I don’t know why it just feels right

The family’s not very rich, but they are very happy where they are

I imagine that during the Ancients’s initial travels around Earthbread, they’d come to end up in each other’s hometowns at some point. For Pure Vanilla’s hometown they’d have a very nice time, PV’s parents welcoming his friends with open arms and generally just having a peaceful time. Maybe there’d be a plot about something stealing sheep and Vanilla Bean asking the group’s help in stopping the threat and protecting the herd

But this is probably the nicest time they have at one of their hometowns

Anyways yeah, that’s them

toge situation posting - feel free to insert yourself in

toge wondering what you're into and whatever thing you say he'll ask about it and ask questions and is happy when ur so excited

you hook up later and he's still quietly listening to you talk while he's underneath you or on top of you riding you and his toes curl up when he's getting close and you can tell and you ask if he wants you to stop talking but he says nah i like your voice

he tells you to come and you've been so happy someone is lsitening you get a bit more rough as you finish inside him and his back arches and he finally whines as he looks up at you all pleasantly satisfied and then asks if you can come over again and play whatever game or watch whatever movie or do whatever you were talking about
