#fresh snow : clara

[idv-serendipity-casino]

There was serenity… and then, the panicked sobs of a little girl in the distance.

“Help! Someone! Help! Please!”

[ @snow-capped-graphics hewwo ]

An equally little boy ran over to the sound, panicking.

"Ahh! I'm coming to help! Hang in there!" Joel squeaked, running and forcing his hat down with one hand to prevent it from flying.

🎀 listen to a pretty wintery playlist with genres like classical, jazz, and celtic/nordic traditional (mine is below <3)

18 fresh sentences for you :)

---

They aren’t Evan Buckley and Sophia Diaz, but Percy and Agneta Dawson. They’d each pulled names from their maternal grandparents’ side of the family. They met when Agneta was in teacher’s college and called a plumber to come help fix her kitchen sink, and there Percy was. They’re both from good, Christian upbringings, though Agneta was raised Catholic and chose to convert. Their faith has been the core tenant of their marriage, of course. 

Sophia should write fiction, Buck thinks. After becoming a Hollywood actor, of course. 

The saddest part of the tale they’ve concocted was the untimely death of Agneta’s little sister, Clara. Murdered by vampires. A tragic story that Sophia always manages to deliver with breathtaking waterworks whenever a congregant asks. It’s the reason they’re all so nice to her. It’s the reason they offer to pray for her, and not in a bitchy way. Poor Aggie, whose sister was murdered on her way home from volunteering at a soup kitchen. It’s the reason no one asks when they take so much time looking at the Wall. 

It’s the first thing they do when they walk into the building. Sophia holds Buck’s arm and manages to look especially delicate and flustered as they walk to the back western corner of the church nave, where what might once have been a bulletin board for community activity has slowly but surely reformed into something much more sinister. 

A poster board tacked to the wall has been written on with pretty, flourishing calligraphy.

Purify me from my sins, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.

Psalms 51:7

[saywhatjessie]

Angels on Richmond Green

Day seven of the Advent calendar! Using this list. Day 6: Making snow angels. Fandom: Ted Lasso - Pairing: RoyJamie & TedTrent 1.2k[Ao3]

“I don’t know if it’s fair for Jamie to be out here doing all the work,” Ted said, frowning.

Roy snorted. “Nah. He needs this too. Trust me.”

They were on the fifth day of the heaviest snowfall Richmond had seen in decades. Business had closed, schools were shut down, and Nelson Road had kicked out all footballers and coaches, citing canceled matches and unsafe working conditions.

At first Jamie had been excited, bouncing around Roy’s kitchen.

“I never got snow days in Manchester,” he’d told Roy. “Everybody’s too used to the cold and shit, This is mint.”

That attitude had lasted exactly one day.

“Good Lord,” Trent said, fascinated, “I’m not sure if I ever had that much energy.”

Roy grunted. “Pretty sure the kids will flag before Jamie does.”

When Roy had found himself shut inside his house with a bored and whiny Jamie and an equally bored and whiny Phoebe – staying with them while her mother dealt with all the things that could go medically wrong in a fucking blizzard – he’d turned to the Diamond Dogs group chat in desperation, hoping maybe Higgins with all his fucking kids could find him some solution.

What he’d found instead was Ted and Trent, snowed in together at Ted’s, with an equally desolate Clara and Henry.

Ted had proposed they all meet up at the Richmond Green and let the kids get their sillies out. Roy had the better idea to let Jamie get their sillies out while the three actual adults sat nearby on a bench to kvetch.

Well, Roy and Trent were kvetching. Ted was just happy to be there.

The three of them watched Jamie run around in the snow, little Clara Crimm on his shoulders as the smallest of the three children as Phoebe and Henry chased Jamie around and tried to push him into a snow drift. Roy didn’t try to hide his smile as Jamie laughed. Ted and Trent were more embarrassing about each other than he could ever be about Jamie. Probably.

Clara shrieked and threw her arms wide, saying something the three older men couldn't hear, but marking the rest of them cheer with her, Jamie lifting her from his shoulders and placing her on the ground so she could barrel toward them with the other kids.

Phoebe got their first. “Uncle Roy! Uncle Roy we’re making snow angels!”

“Great,” Roy said. “Sounds fun.”

“No, we’re making snow angels,” Henry said, gesturing at all of them. “You guys, too!”

“Oh, are we?” Trent asked.

“Yes, Daddy!” Clara said, breathless from her little legs doing the run. “And Jamie will judge!”

“Wait, why doesn’t Jamie have to do it?” Roy asked, brows furrowed.

Jamie loped up, cocky grin on his face. “Wouldn’t be fair, would it? I’d win right off.”

“How you figure that?” Asked Ted, looking more amused than insulted.

Jamie snorted, his hands stuffed into the pockets of his jacket. He’d taken off his big heavy coat when he’d started running around. “S’all about muscle control, innit? You gotta be strong enough to move the snow but now flail around or you’ll ruin it. I got the best muscle control.”

Trent hummed. “There’s some truth to that.”

Roy pulled a hat out of his pocket and stuffed it on Jamie’s head. “Put your jacket back on, you muppet.”

Jamie grinned, grabbing Roy’s wrist before he could pull his hand away and kissed his palm. “Keep your hair on, grandad, I’ve got like four layers on. And you’re the one about to lay down in some snow.”

Roy growled, making the kids giggle.

“Well, no time like the present!” Ted said, brightly, and then hurled himself onto an untouched patch of snow.

“Dad, no fair!” Henry called, jumping after him. “You got the best spot!”

“Snooze you lose, mother goose!” Ted said, brushing his arms and legs back and forth. “Remember: Jamie said muscle control.”

Henry laughed, finding a smaller fresh patch near Ted’s head. Phoebe and Clara shrieked to go find their own snow spots.

Jamie grinned over at Roy and Trent. “You better find some good snow or your angels will be shit.”

Trent turned big sad eyes on both of them. “But my hair.”

Roy rolled his eyes, yanking Trent closer to him, making him stumble a bit. Roy steadied him before reaching around Trent for his hood and pulled it up over the beautiful hair Trent was so worried about. He tucked some wayward strands away, buttoning the neck to keep it closed and pulling on the strings to keep it secure. He ran his hand down the hood to check his work and gripped Trent lightly on the neck, affectionately.

“There,” He said, taking a step back in satisfaction. “Hair’s all tucked away.”

Trent was just staring at him with wide eyes before looking around him at Jamie. “He really does just do that, doesn’t he? How do you usually react?”

Roy turned and saw Jamie shrug. “Half a chub, usually. Sometimes butterflies or whatever. It’s kinda sweet in a daddy way.”

Roy growled and Trent laughed, a little disarmed.

“Excuse me for solving a fucking problem,” Roy grumbled. “I’m making my fucking snow angel over here.”

“Need help getting down, grandad?”

“Fuck you.”

Jamie did end up having to help Roy up. Not like it mattered: his shit knee didn’t give him the proper range to make a decent snow angel. He knew he’d lose.

“S’alright, babe,” Jamie said, reassuringly, his arm gripping Roy firmly around the middle. “The angel’s skirt is just asymmetrical, innit? That’s fashionable that is.”

“Fuck you,” Roy said, but he put his arm around Jamie’s back and held him closer, anyway.

All the kids had already bounced back to their feet and Ted was helping Trent to carefully step out of his own angel.

Ted was frowning at Tren’t hood. “I miss her.”

Trent patted his chest, comfortingly. “She’s there, darling, just didn’t want to pick ice out.”

Ted still pouted so Trent gave him a little peck.

Jamie made a loud buzzer sound. “That’s a point deduction. There’s no PDA in snow angels.”

“Oh? Then what’s this?” Trent asked, gesturing at Roy and Jamie’s walking snuggle.

“We’re clearly just bros, ain’t we Royo?”

Roy grunted, moving his hand to grope Jamie’s arse.

Jamie didn’t even jump, just smiled wider.

“Jamie, who wins?” Phoebe asked, giving her puppy eyes.

Jamie hummed, rubbing his hand over chin before nodding decisively.

“Ted.”

Ted whooped, pumping his fist while the kids all groan.

“But wait!” Trent said. “Doesn't the winner buy hot chocolate for everyone?”

“That they do, Trent Crimm!” Jamie grinned, and the kids all cheered.

“Well hot dog, all right. If that’s the price of victory.”

The price of victory, or hot chocolate for seven, couldn’t have been more than £40.

The nap that Jamie and Phoebe fell into when they got home, each curled into Roy’s sides on the couch, was definitely worth way more.

Lying-in

Kate stepped out onto the patio, her boots crunching into what had been an undisturbed blanket of fresh, powdery snow. Flakes floated about aimlessly in the air around her as she took in the majesty that was the grounds of Aubrey Hall after a night of steady snowfall.

She giggled like a naughty child as she let her shawl fall to the ground, the impact of the heavy garment hitting the thick layer of snow barely making any sound at all. Just for a few moments, she wanted to feel it. The crisp, clean sensation of chilled air around her. The exhilarating rush of inhaling it deep into her lungs. She knew she would be uncomfortable soon, and wanted to savour this experience that was still so new to her. Perhaps, with time, she would discover she does not care for snow at all, but, for now–

“Kate!”

Blast. 

“Kate, you cannot be serious!”

Kate rolled her eyes as she slowly bent down to retrieve her shawl from the ground. “Worry not, my lord. This endeavour is not serious in the least. I was rather enjoying myself.”

Anthony caught up to her as she was moving to place her shawl back over her shoulders. He snatched it from her, muttering something she could not decipher, and began to remove his jacket.

“This is useless now that it has been sitting in the snow. Infernal woman. Come here.”

Anthony draped his jacket over his wife. With one arm around her shoulders and one hand on her belly, swollen with their child, he guided her back into the house, cursing her all the while.

“Are you quite alright, my lady?” Clara asked as she set eyes on the master and mistress of the house and rushed forward.

“Clara, it is fine. I am perfectly well.”

“Hardly! Clara, did you not know Lady Bridgerton had gone out into the cold with nothing to guard her from the chill?”

Clara looked embarrassed and opened her mouth to speak.

“Anthony, please. Clara was only doing as I instructed. I wished to venture outside alone.” Kate turned toward Clara and grasped the young woman’s hands. “Do not mind it at all, dear.” She cut her eyes toward her husband. He stood petulantly, his jaw tight.

Clara seemed partially mollified. “Thank you, ma’am. May I prepare you some tea?”

“Yes, that sounds lovely,” Kate smiled.

“And a hot bath–immediately.” Anthony cut in.

Clara nodded, subtly looking to Kate, who nodded begrudgingly.

Clara curtsied and left to set about her tasks. Kate turned to Anthony and the two stared each other down for a few minutes before speaking at the same time.

“If you expect–”

“Anthony, you can not–”

Anthony sighed, put his hands behind his back, and waited for Kate to continue.

“I was only outside briefly, Anthony.”

“With no coat. No gloves. Several months pregnant.” The last sentence was forced through gritted teeth. “I will not apologise for my concern for your wellbeing or that of our child.” 

Kate softened a bit. “And I would never ask you to. However, I will not be managed. You are perfectly aware of this.”

Anthony did not answer, merely gnashed his teeth and paced. Kate tutted as she walked up to him and cradled his face in her hands, breathing with him until he calmed down.

“Are you truly so distressed by a fleeting moment in the snow?”

“Yes,” he whispered.

Kate nodded with understanding. “I am sorry to have alarmed you.”

Anthony sighed and rested their foreheads together. “Thank you. Though, I am sure you have no plans to stop.”

“It seems there is nothing I could do in this condition that would not alarm you.” Kate kissed him gently on the cheek. “It is alright, Anthony. It is simply your nature. And it is admirable, how you care so deeply. Indeed, I fear I would not love you as much if you were not so ridiculous in your devotion to your family.” Another kiss, and she turned to walk down the hall after Clara. “Now, I am off to dutifully have my tea and bath.”

Kate smiled to herself as she heard Anthony’s soft laughter behind her.

—

The moment Kate woke up, she knew she’d made a mistake. She could admit, at least to herself, that she was indeed coming down with a cold. Her momentary jaunt in the snow may actually have led to her sickness. It was a mistake not because of the resulting illness itself. Kate was not bothered by a trifling cold. The mistake Kate made in getting sick was whatever her husband would subject her to once he found out. So, the solution was simple. Anthony must not find out.

Kate slid out of bed as quietly as she could, successfully leaving Anthony undisturbed in his slumber. She requested a basin of hot water to steam her face, then drank several cups of tea. By the time Anthony had met her for breakfast, Kate was able to quite successfully feign complete health.

She was thankful that Anthony seemed to have a lot of work to do with his solicitor, so it was easy to avoid him for the rest of the morning. After another steam, she prepared to face Anthony for luncheon. Perhaps he was so busy that he would miss it. The prospect was unlikely, as Anthony made a point to at least be with Kate during meals every day, not wanting to leave her alone all day during the latter part of her pregnancy.

Kate approached the door of his office, noting that it was ajar. She quietly made her way down the hall. Well, she had kept quiet–until she sneezed.

Blast.

“What was that?”

Blast!

In no time at all, Anthony appeared at the doorway.

“What was that noise, Kate?”

Kate squeezed her eyes shut. “Nothing.”

Anthony’s jaw ticked. “It certainly was something. You are ill, Kate. You recklessly exposed yourself to the chill air, and now you are ill.”

Kate waved him off. “I was not reckless. And my memory is not impaired. I know what happened. It is trivial.”

“Trivial?” Anthony grasped his hands behind his back. “And how could you possibly know the severity of your condition?”

“Because I am the one experiencing said condition.”

Anthony bit back whatever retort was at the tip of his tongue. After a brief staredown, he calmly said, “I shall call the surgeon at once.”

“You will not.”

“Kate.”

“We do not waste precious time and resources on sniffles and sneezes.”

“Surely, you understand the need to make an exception in this case.”

“I absolutely do not. I will rest today. Let us have luncheon in our chambers. Then, I will lie down until dinner. Does that please you?”

Kate noted the ghost of a smile on Anthony’s face as his body relaxed a degree.

“Go,” he said. “I shall meet you upstairs.” He kissed her and moved his hands over her bump before releasing her.

—

“I think it is past time we consider beginning your lying-in. You should write to Lady Mary, calling her to Aubrey Hall.”

“No,” Kate said simply as she and Anthony sat together at dinner, not looking up from cutting her chicken.

“Darling, you have fallen ill. Why would you not heed that? Begin your confinement until you have delivered and you and the child have recovered.”

Kate’s silverware clattered to her plate as she dropped them. “I have not fallen ill. It is but a cold. It is far too early to be confined to my chambers. The very idea of being confined at all is already sufficiently disturbing.”

Anthony’s eyes widened and Kate raised a hand.

“I am not saying I will not concede eventually. However, I am certainly not starting now–or any time soon.”

Anthony nodded, defeated, if only temporarily.

—

Kate froze in the hallway when she saw her husband speaking with Mrs. Steele, the woman they had hired to be their midwife, upon entering the drawing room some days later.

“No.”

Anthony stood. “Kate.”

“Mrs. Steele, my apologies. I am certain I am not due for an examination.”

Apparently sensing something was amiss, Mrs. Steele’s eyes moved between Anthony and Kate, and understanding donned on her face. Kate was sure that, given how long she had been practising, their midwife was very familiar with this kind of conflict between husband and wife.

“Yes, ma’am. Lord Bridgerton has communicated that you may wish to discuss beginning your lying-in imminently.”

Kate glanced over to Anthony briefly, noting his indignant expression. She turned back to Mrs. Steele with a smile.

“Again, my apologies, Mrs. Steele. His lordship seems to have misunderstood me. He sent for you far too early, I am afraid. We will not be in need of your services for several more weeks, at least. I am deeply sorry for the inconvenience. Please do us the honour of joining us for luncheon before taking your leave.”

Mrs. Steele nodded curtly.

“May I have a word, my lord?” Kate said sharply as she raised an eyebrow at Anthony. It wasn't a question. It was a command.

“Of course, Lady Bridgerton.” Anthony rose, bowed to Mrs. Steele, and followed Kate down the hall.

“Anthony, you must stop.”

“Kate, I am only asking that–”

“You must see that the problem lies in the truth that you are not asking for anything. Truly, Anthony. Calling the midwife without my knowledge, let alone consent?”

Anthony’s ramrod posture relaxed. “Alright. I grant you that I may have overstepped.”

Kate almost challenged him on the use of the word “may” in that admission, but bit her tongue.

He pulled her close and placed his hand on her cheek. “I am afraid the fears that plagued me so in the past have resurfaced, now that we find ourselves on the precipice of parenthood, of what you must…” He looked down as his hand travelled over her belly. “I am scared for you, Kate. For both of you.”

Kate placed a hand over Anthony’s. “I understand. I truly do. I find myself frightened as well.”

“Then why–”

“Because I have found I am able to have room for this worry while still being hopeful, confident that we will be well. And we will, Anthony. Your fears are far from unfounded, but can you not see it? Do you not close your eyes and see your son, strong, mischievous, funny, compassionate?”

“No.”

“No?” Kate's face fell.

“No. I see our daughter, just as strong, as well as beautiful, obstinate, inflexible, and unyielding to good, plain commonsense.”

Just then, a kick landed squarely against where Anthony’s hand rested on Kate’s bump. Kate and Anthony’s eyes met. Her husband’s smugness was obvious, despite the tears welling up in his eyes.

“It seems your daughter is letting us know I am right.”

“Not at all. No doubt, your son is alerting you to how gravely misguided you are.”

Anthony tucked Kate’s arm in the crook of his elbow and kissed her on the temple as they made their way back to Mrs. Steele.

“Well, we will just have to wait and see.”

“I suppose so. Not too long, but there is still time yet.”

“Yes,” Anthony sighed, content. “Not too long. Exactly on time.”

[Vastra's home]

STRAX: Do not attempt to escape or you will be obliterated! May I take your coat?

(Vastra is in the conservatory, sitting in a peacock chair and surrounded by exotic greenery.)

JENNY: Sit.

VASTRA: There are two refreshments in your world the colour of red wine. This is not red wine.

JENNY: Madame Vastra will ask you questions. You will confine yourself to single word responses. One word only, do you understand?

CLARA: Why?

VASTRA: Truth is singular. Lies are words, words, words. You met the Doctor, didn't you?

CLARA: Yes.

VASTRA: And now you've come looking for him again. Why?

JENNY: Take your time. One word only.

CLARA: Curiosity.

VASTRA: About?

CLARA: Snow.

VASTRA: And about him?

CLARA: Yes.

VASTRA: What do you want from him?

CLARA: Help.

VASTRA: Why?

CLARA: Danger.

VASTRA: Why would he help you?

CLARA: Kindness.

VASTRA: The Doctor is not kind.

CLARA: No?

VASTRA: No. The Doctor doesn't help people. Not anyone, not ever. He stands above this world and doesn't interfere in the affairs of its inhabitants. He is not your salvation, nor your protector. Do you understand what I am saying to you?

CLARA: Words.

VASTRA: He was different once, a long time ago. Kind, yes. A hero, even. A saver of worlds. But he suffered losses which hurt him. Now he prefers isolation to the possibility of pain's return. Kindly choose a word to indicate your understanding of this.

CLARA: Man.

VASTRA: We are the Doctor's friends. We assist him in his isolation but that does not mean we approve of it. So, a test for you. Give me a message for the Doctor. Tell him all about the snow and what fresh danger you believe it presents, and above all, explain why he should help you. But do it in one word. You're thinking it is impossible that such a word exists, or that you could even find it. Let's see if the gods are with you.

[Tardis]

(The telephone rings. A proper telephone with a curly cord. The Doctor answers it.)

DOCTOR: Yes? What? I'm trying to read.

VASTRA [OC]: Miss Clara and her concerns about the snow.

[Vastra's home]

VASTRA: I gave her the one word test.

DOCTOR [OC]: That's always pointless. What did she say? Well? Well?

VASTRA: Pond.

[Tardis]

VASTRA [OC]: Strax has already suggested where to start investigating.

Snowy Thoughts

Book: Open Heart Pairing: Ethan Ramsey x F!MC (Genevieve McClure), feat. Ellie McClure Word Count: 1049 Rating: G Category: fluff, domestic bliss Trope(s):

Summary: Gen watches Ethan play in the snow with their niece.

Warnings: none

A/N: One last entry for @choicesficwriterscreations​ holiday event. Takes place during the January update or ‘tis the damn season. 

They’d woken up to a fresh blanket of snow, crisp and white. It made her giddy, like a child. Or her niece, who had woken up in screams of excitement. 

Ethan and Gen had decided to spend the weekend in her hometown with her family. They’d missed Christmas a few weeks back, so they’d picked a random weekend in January to rectify the situation. 

It always melts her heart to see how much her family has grown to love Ethan. Especially her niece, Ellie. When Ellie met him years ago, she had run up to Ethan and gave him a hug. All smiles and asking if he would marry Auntie G one day. At the time, Gen had been mortified, as her and Ethan had only been dating – officially – for two months, but Ethan played along, giving her niece the only appropriate answer.

Someday, Ellie.

Back then, no one thought anything of it, but nine months later he proposed and now two years later they were married. 

And Ethan had graduated from Etan to Uncle Ethan, quickly becoming Ellie’s favorite person in the world. Which meant whenever the Ramsey’s go up to Maine for a visit, they stay with Gen’s brother and sister-in-law. 

“Auntie G!?” The six year old runs into the living room, already dressed for the snow. “Is Uncle Ethan awake?” 

“He’s in the kitchen, making us coffee.” Gen laughs, Ellie not bothering to hear the rest of the sentence and running into the other room. She follows close behind, never one to miss the sweet interactions between Ellie and Ethan. 

“Uncle Ethan, will you come play in the snow with me?” She beams up at him, with a pleading lip. 

Not unlike the one Gen uses when she wants something from her husband. 

“Did your aunt teach you that face?” Ethan chuckles, kneeling down to be at Ellie’s level.

“No. Will you? Please!?” 

“Sure. How about we have everyone come out and play?” 

“Okay.” She runs away, her feet stomping up the stairs. “Mom!”

Twenty minutes later and the whole family is outside: Gen, Ethan, Henry, Clara, Eli and Ellie. Making snow angles and snow forts. 

Gen walks over to her husband, arms coming around his waist. ”Thank you for indulging her. You’re a good uncle.” 

“I don’t mind, honestly.” Ethan smiles, wrapping his own arms around her. “I see it as practice for when we have our own children. Though, hopefully, they don’t learn to make that same face. I’m screwed if you and our children have it.” 

“You’ll be a great dad.” She leans up on her tiptoes to kiss him, the snow crunching under her boots, but their lips barely touch before they’re interrupted. 

“No kissing! Daddy said so.” Ellie throws a snowball from beside Henry, erupting into a fit of giggles. “Mommy and Daddy and Eli are going inside, but can we stay outside? We can make a snowman!” 

She prances over to them, her tiny gloved hand pulling one of Ethan’s off of Gen’s waist. “Will you help?” 

“Of course, Ellie.” Ethan kisses Gen’s cheek before letting Ellie pull him away. 

She can’t help the smile that spreads, her heart so full at the sight of Ethan and their niece. 

They’d decided a few months prior, to wait a little longer on having kids of their own. They wanted them together, but Gen wasn’t ready to give up what they currently have by bringing a baby into it. She enjoyed it just being the two of them, a semi-newly married couple. 

If she was honest, the thought of losing that, their little bubble of just Ethan and Genevieve, made her anxious. The unknowns of what their relationship would turn into after having a child terrified her. 

But she also knew that Ethan was ready. He wanted kids as soon as possible, especially after they learned Tobias and his fiancée were expecting last year and their baby being born just a few days ago. He wanted to begin the next phase of their life, and it broke her heart a little to make him wait. 

Though, Ethan was quick to remind her that while he was ready, there was no real pressure on her and he’d happily and patiently wait until she was too. 

Gen looks back at her husband and niece, rolling a second ball of now. The six year old chatting away and Ethan nodding his head. 

He really will make an amazing father. So caring and patient, happy to build a snowman or play pirates and princess. Their future kids will be so lucky to have him as their dad. 

“Auntie G, come help.” Ellie calls her over, big smile on her small face. “We need to put his face on.” 

“Of course, Nuggs.” She joins them in the middle of the backyard. “He looks great already.” 

“Thank you. Uncle Ethan put on his head cause I’m too short and he’s very tall.”

“He is.” She winks at him, to which he shakes his head. “What are you going to use for his eyes and smile?” 

“Um.. Oh, I know. Marbles from my collection. I’ll be back.” Before either adult can say anything, Ellie runs inside, leaving them alone in the backyard. 

“What had you so far away just now? I kept looking over at you and you seemed a million miles away.” Ethan is quick to take her into his arms once they’re alone. Concern etched all over his face. 

“I was just thinking.” Gen drapes her arms around his neck, shuffling as close as she can with their bulking winter coats. 

“Oh?” 

“Nothing bad, I promise.” She nuzzles her nose against his, that warm feeling she always gets when she’s in his arms flooding her veins. 

It’s the feeling of safety, and home, Gen has come to learn in the years she’s been with Ethan. Something she’s never had with anyone else. Chaos and mayhem could be erupting around them, but if she was in his embrace, none of it mattered. 

Perhaps, that was proof that no matter what they’d always be okay. That even when they have a child, at the end of the day, they’d still be them. Two people madly in love. 

And maybe, with that knowledge, she was closer to being ready than she thought.

A/N: And guess who’s born August next year? Lizzie. 

Hope you all had a new year!

Woah more Eros voicelines under the cut

First Meeting: "Me? Th' name's Eros, darlin', least that's what everyone calls me. If y'wanna be fancy y'c'n call me Doctor. Any aches an' pains t'day?"

Greeting: "Somethin' on y'er mind? Or d'ya jus' like lookin' at th' cute doctor~?"

Parting: "Prob'ly time I turned in...I c'n't be an effective healer if 'm sleepin' on m'feet, after all."

About Self: Botany: "I keep all sorts of plants in th' clinic's greenhouse. They're mostly species native t' Jarilo-VI f'er now, but eventually I wanna get ones from far off places."

About Self: The Clinic: "Ah, th' Bahre Family Clinic belonged t' m' Daddy b'fore it was mine. Guess y'could call it a family business, huh? Not many of those down here, I s'ppose."

Chat: Flowers: "Belobog's a land covered in snow, s'ppose if I ever got 'round t' travelin' I'd really love t' see somethin' like th' flowers in stories...like- camellias..~."

Chat: Fairy Tales: "When I was jus' a li'l thing, m'Daddy used t' tell me all sorts of stories of...knights and princesses and dragons. I remember I used t' love those stories. If I ever have a kid, I think I'd like readin' 'em those same stories."

Chat: Vidyadhara: "No point hidin' it from ya, I s'ppose. I used t' be a High Elder on th' Yuque. Through a series of events I won't get int', I ended up here on Belobog. Th' people here think 'm human and I'd really like t' keep it that way, sugar.

Hobbies: "I- play th' violin sometimes. I think s' probably pretty annoyin' hearin' all th' time though."

Annoyances: "There's a sayin' m'Daddy always used t' tell me- don't go makin' work f'er th' people that take care of ya. When people get hurt on purpose as an excuse t' come see me, it really gets on m'nerves! 'm a doctor. I know 'm cute but there are better ways t' ask a boy on a date!"

Something to Share: "Th' treats I keep in th' parlor ain't for show, y'know. I make 'em fresh every day- so feel free t' help y'er'self, okay~?"

Knowledge: "Y'know they make portable geomarrow heaters that y'c'n take with ya whenever y'er out, yeah? Tha's what this cute li'l trinket on m'belt is~! Makes it much easier to go run around in th' snow when I really don't like wearin' too many layers."

About Sampo: "Ugh, Koski..? I remember one night I had t' dig him out of th' snow b'cause th' guards were on him. F'er such a big guy, he's surprisin'ly stealthy, I c'n't believe they didn't find him-! I had t' carry him t' th' clinic by m'self."

About Natasha: "People think I don't like sharin' business with Miss Natasha, but that jus' ain't true. M'Daddy used t'say 'many hands make light work' and tha's definitely true when it comes t' people's health."

About Gepard: "Oh, th' Captain! He's a sweetheart, though he gets a li'l shy sometimes. I wonder if I jus' come on too strong...hm."

About Pela: "Such a sweet girl, y'could hardly believe she's jus' sixteen. She's so responsible."

About Bronya: "Th' New Madam Guardian's certainly interestin'. Feels nice knowin' there's someone that has our best interest at heart."

About Seele: "She's definitely got a temper, but I c'n't say I blame her. Growin' up th' way we all did- especially her- I think I'd be angry too if I were given th' chance."

About Serval: "Serval's m'go-to gal f'er any maintenance I need on m'heater since we opened up. She's a real genius, y'know?"

About Svarog: "Th' Boss of the Robot Settlement seems scary, but he's kinda like a kitten. I think y'jus' gotta know th' robot equivalent of milk t' get him t' purr."

About Clara: "Oh, m'sweet pea...she's got a good head on her shoulders. 'm sure she's gonna do even greater things as she gets older."

About Luka: "Don't tell anyone, but I do like goin' t' watch him fight sometimes...and I may or may not have talked Sampo int' not bettin' on him so I could make a li'l extra cash on th' side...do not tell him I did it on purpose!"

About Sparkle: "I think th' world needs a li'l more Sparkle. We don't agree on everythin' but she's still family-. In th' loose version of th' word, mind ya-."

Eidolon Activation: "Maybe s'best we don't dig too deep, don't y'think, sugar?"

Character Ascension: "All m'love f'er all y'do f'er me~."

Max Level Reached: "I think I could still get even cuter, y'know?"

Trace Activation: "I guess I could stand t' flex a bit~."

Added to the team w/ the Trailblazer: "Always a pleasure bein' at y'er side, sweetheart~."

Added to the team w/ Sampo Koski: "Oh now it's really a feast of fools, ain't it?"

Added to the team w/ Sparkle: "Mm, so long as we're playin' fair. No stealin' wha's mine, kay~?"

Added to the team w/ Gepard: "Are y'finally gonna admit I could be a li'l helpful t' ya sugar~?"
