#happy holidays hannah!!

[thevikingwoman]

A small gift for @galadae! I love Cala and Hien so much, and had to write this little scene. I hope you enjoy, my friend 💕

thank you so much for your support of my own brainrot 😔

Fandom: Final Fantasy XIV | Words: 527 | Read on Ao3

Calantha Lenn x Hien Rijin | romance Ranting: T. Fluff, established relationship, sparring

Stress Relief

Calantha is somewhere between aggravated, alarmed and saddened – not that she perhaps would use those words herself. She mostly just finds herself weary, and glad she has the time to see Hien, her stress lifting as soon as she sat foot in the Kienkan. Even if she does, perhaps, slam the shoji open with more force than strictly necessary.

“Calantha!” Hien looks up from the scroll he’s been reading, and smiles at her. She doesn’t even resist the urge to smile back, some of her annoyance dissipating at the sight of him. “How you are you?”

“Fine,” she replies. Really, she is. “And you?”

Hien nods, rolls up his scrolls and stands. “To be forthright, I need to stretch my legs – too many missives today.”

He reaches for her, and presses a soft kiss to her lips.

“Do you care to spar, Calantha? I could use the exercise.”

Calantha considers. She is tired, but restless.

“Not afraid I will injure your pride?”

“We will see.”

~

They warm up both of them, the luxury of having time to stretch and not rushing into battle. Calantha picks a simple lance, and Hien a training katana.

“Ready?” Hien asks, and Calantha realizes she is more than, bouncing on her feet, restlessness winning over her tiredness.

Hien charges her, and she jumps, avoiding his swing. It’s a rush next; attack and dodge, weapons connecting, retreat and attack, strike and parry. She thinks she gets a hit in or two, but Hien doesn’t flinch and presses on, likewise managing a strike on her, the blunt weapon striking across her thigh.

Hien grins at her, and presses his advantage, but Calantha flips out of his way, landing solidly in the empty training yard. She wipes sweat off her brow, and their dance begins anew. Now, Calantha takes the time to assess the battlefield, determined not to let Hien get the upper hand. She knows his fighting style, as well as he knows hers. Considering, she vaults back when he advances, twisting herself to avoid crashing into a training dummy. Hien advances again, his gaze blazing, almost like a physical caress.

It wouldn’t serve to get distracted now. She goes on the offense, thrusting her lance with a renewed fierceness. Thrust and counter. Thrust and counter.  When Hien takes a step back, she presses, and jumps.

Calantha has him against the wall, the tip of her lance pressed against his throat. She looks down at him with a feral smile, and Hien swallows and licks his lips.

“You got me, Calantha.”

She breathes out, a hard puff, and tosses her lance to the ground.

“And your pride?”

“Hale and well.” He drops the katana, and puts his hands around her waist. “You did not have me on the ground.”

She bends her head and kisses him, hard and rough at first, but she slows when he melts under her, giving and giving and giving. Calantha feels much less tired and far more calm when they finally break the kiss apart, and she pulls him as close as she can.

“I think you tricked me,” she says.

Hien smiles into her collarbone.

“Did, I now?”

f1wagnews NEW: Y/N L/N breaks her silence on the circulating paparazzi pictures of Charles Leclerc & his apparent new girlfriend. When asked by the media what she thought, she said: "Charles being in a new relationship not even a month later is naturally a shock, seeing as I assumed he would treat me and the times we shared over the past three years with the same dignity and respect that I am treating him. I don't know, I guess these sort of memories aren't as priceless to him as they are to me. Still, I hope he's happy in his new relationship."

user32 okay so a lot of the comments are saying she handled this w grace or whatever but is it just me who disagrees? like she's literally being rude to him and his new girlfriend, and you're all hyping her up?? like huh??

user33 honestly this comment makes no sense to me; she didn't say anything rude about charles in this, she simply said that she was shocked to see him in a relationship when they were together for three years, and honestly she's valid for that! i don't think many girls would enjoy seeing their ex boyfriend and his new girlfriend all over the media, and so y/n is honestly handling this so well.

People Watching (Jason/Danny)

Jason leaned back in his seat at the bookshop, his eyes no longer on his book but the couple in front of him.  They were around college age, from what Jason could see. He had started watching them when blond girl started laughing at a joke until she started to cry. It hadn’t been an all that funny joke, either but it was cute the way she seemed to hang on the brunet man’s every single word. From what Jason got from their eavesdropping, they had been together for four years. Or well, forty nine months since they had decided to loudly count out the months. 

She had a ring on her finger but she still called him her boyfriend. And they had talked about meeting in some class, metaphysical philosophy, the guy had supplied. Jason’s heart felt light as he listened to them, he was happy for them, he was. 

It was why he was watching them, why he was listening to the guy, his name was Jeremy, apparently, as he teased Hannah, the blond, about how she acted around the holidays. His heart felt light and he felt a longing that he recognized so insanely intimately. It was the same ache that he got any time he spent time people watching. 

He wanted to feel all that love and emotion for himself one day. Dreamt of the day that he would be able to be attached to the person he was holding, not just having someone warm his bed for the night. He wanted to fall without caution, to be so utterly in love with someone that he laughed at their bad jokes.  

He didn’t know if that would ever actually happen for him, though. How could it when he had screwed up so many things in his life? He had died, come back, become a murderer, a crime lord and practically ruined any chance he had at a normal life. Jason had dreams once upon a time, hopes that he wanted to accomplish one day. He had wanted to go to college and fall in love like the couple in front of him had. That wasn’t in the cards, though, not for someone who was still considered legally dead. 

“They’re so cute it’s disgusting,” a voice said with a snort. Jason looked up from his book to find someone taking a seat beside him on the plush couch, a coffee mug wrapped in their hands. “But yet, I still always get wistful when I see couples like that,” they said softly. 

“Yeah, me too,” Jason said quietly, picking up his mug of tea. 

“I’m Danny,” the man said as Jason took a moment to look over his new people watching partner. He was just a little shorter than Jason, dark black hair was pulled back into a bun at the back of his head. Jason could just barely see a hint of a tattoo peeking out from the collar of Dnany’s shirt. But the thing that really got him, was the crystal blue eyes that seemed to shine in the low lights of the cheesy hipster coffee shop they were sitting in.

“Jason,” the vigilante said with a small smile. “So, I’m assuming you’re a people watcher too?”

Danny let out a hum. “I suppose, I mean, I’m only looking just to live through them vicariously. I’ve never really been in love, at least not seriously,” he said quietly, his eyes glued to the couple, a familiar longing in his eyes. 

Jason gave him a small, tentative smile. “No I get it,” he said with a soft laugh as he looked back at the couple, the man now holding the woman’s hand in his and staring at her like she was the only person in the world. “I have a problem with cutting people out if they get too close. I end up all alone each time, but for some reason I just keep hoping that I’ll find it one day.”

Danny nodded and took a sip of his coffee before he looked over at Jason and gave him a kind smile. “It’s scary,” he admitted quietly. “To let someone get so close, to let them love you, even the bad parts of you that you try to keep hidden away.”

“It is,” Jason admitted, carefully closing his book, taking note of the page he had left it on. “It’s funny, I read so many romance novels, I love romantic comedies but to actually allow myself to feel vulnerable like that in my day to day life? It’s fuckin’ terrifying.”

At that, his new friend let out a soft laugh and nodded his head. “It’s so scary to let someone know me. It’s just so much safer to just not allow people to get close and know all of my secrets. But at the same time,  it’s all just so monotone and lonely,” he said, his eyes still shining with an unspoken sadness. 

Jason knew what he was going to say next was going to sound cheesy as fuck. Knew that there was a chance that Danny was going to laugh in his face. But he had to try, had to just give himself a moment to shoot his shot and see if maybe it would work. How could it not? Even if Danny didn’t know Jason’s exact problems or hangups, he still understood where Jason was coming from. Knew just as well at how terrifying it was to let someone know him. 

“I know we just met, and I started this conversation in a really depressing way,” Danny started, turning to fully look at Jason. “But I actually came over here to get to know you. I saw you when I was ordering my coffee and I just, I wanted to get to know you,” he said before his face turned a bright red as he looked down at his coffee and blushed. “I’m sorry, I’m being weird.”

“No,” Jason said with a small smile. “You’re not, not at all. I’d like to keep talking to you. You get it,” he said, feeling his own cheeks heat up slightly at the admission. 

“I get it,” Danny asked, the corners of his eyes crinkling. Jason just snorted and shook his head. “What are you reading?”

“Anna Karenina,” Jason admitted, showing the cover. “It’s considered one of the greatest pieces of literature ever written.”

Danny smiled, a beautiful thing showing off dimples in his cheeks. “Tell me about it? I’ve never read it.”

A wide grin spread on Jason’s face as he launched into an in depth summary about Anna Karenina and why it was one of his favorite novels of all time. 

Somehow a coffee meet cute turned into a coffee date, and then a coffee date turned into a dinner date. The dinner date led to Danny inviting Jason over for dinner and a movie. And that led to book dates and movie dates, it turned into spending more days at Danny’s house than he did at his safe houses. It led to nights in bed, the lights out and the blankets over their heads as they learned each others deepest secrets, whispering childhood stories and childhood traumas to one another in the safety of the dark. 

Jason found himself falling more and more as each day passed by. He found himself holding Danny in his arms as he dreamed about a house behind a picket fence, and started building a home for himself in Danny’s embrace. 

“I love you,” was whispered between the two of them late at night. Soon Jason found himself meeting Danny’s family, a sister and two best friends who were like siblings to him. And Danny found himself being dragged to the manor to meet the insane hoard of siblings and an emotionally repressed father. 

Secrets were passed between them, talks about their deaths, their lives as teen heroes, the desire to just have something normal. That led to the agreement of being one another’s something normal. 

It eventually led to Jason moving into Danny’s home, boxes carried between them and friends as they unpacked Jason’s things and melded their lives together. 

“I can’t believe we’re doing this,” Danny said with a laugh as he fell onto the couch beside Jason, throwing a blanket over their legs after. He smiled as he held out his hand to show off the silver band that Jason had just given him hours before. 

“I can’t believe you walked up to a random stranger to talk about people watching and it led to this,” Jason murmured, nipping at Danny’s earlobe. Danny snorted and turned his head to give the vigilante a soft kiss. 

“Worth it,” he murmured, cupping Jason’s face in his hands. “Completely and absolutely worth it.”

“I love you, Danny Todd,” Jason murmured, rubbing his nose against Danny’s.  

“I love you too, Jason Todd,” Danny whispered, his lips a hair’s breadth away from Jason’s. “Thanks for letting me in.”

Jason just smiled. “Thanks for not cutting me out,” he murmured before closing the distance between them and kissing his husband deeply.

His Girl

Warnings: Brief mentions of the Burke drama and Hannah's overdose situation, Will's dating life?

Summary: Through all the women in his life, at the end, only one ever truly mattered.

A/N: Just because I want to, I'm changing a few things around just for the plot. I was inspired by several fics on ao3 about singlefather!Will so i thought i'd make this part of my Faith Halstead series. Hope you enjoy!!

This is my last fic of the year. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and will have a wonderful new year. Fingers crossed 2024 will be our year. See you all next year!!!

Faith's mother had never been present. It had always been just Faith and Will from day one and he never saw a reason for that to change till he moved back home to Chicago.

Then Will's favourite duo became a trio, Jay unsurprisingly becoming a staple in their lives. Will didn't see any reason to change this dynamic when everyone was happy.

But then he met a few women who changed some things.

Natalie was the first to some degree. There were feelings on both sides but she had a newborn son and a mother-in-law who didn't like him for some reason. Their kiss was a 'mistake' and so he moved on.

Nina was his first official girlfriend since moving back and his hesitancy to get back into the dating scene was as clear as day. So they took it as slow as necessary.

Will was scared. He liked Nina relatively and they were at a point where he was comfortable enough to introduce her to Faith but the lingering fear of abandonment remained. He didn't want to introduce a female and a possible maternal figure into her life just for them to leave.

Luckily, Faith was just touching five when they broke up and he finally got with Natalie.

Those two to three years could be described as near bliss.

He loved Natalie and to see how she took Faith in with open arms, he could've cried on the spot right then. And she was the perfect older sister to Owen, three years her younger, getting along as though they were blood related siblings and being as thick as thieves.

"Hey bubbles." Will called out. His nerves radiating as he sat down besides his daughter on the floor with her toys splayed out on the carpet.

"How would you feel about papa and Natalie getting married?" He asked, apprehension lacing his words. Marriage and having a mother were topics Will often breached with Faith but it had never got this serious and he'd never do anything to this degree without having Faith's permission.

But the second her brown eyes lit up as bright as the stars in the sky, Will felt like everything was finally coming together and for once, he could give his daughter everything she wanted and deserved.

Faith was seven when everything came tumbling down.

She'd been with the bridal party when everything unfolded. She tried remaining naive to the nerves of the bride who she had yet to start calling mum. She tried remaining oblivious at the church when her dad hadn't shown up yet but she sobbed her little heart out when Will was dragged away from her into witness protection.

For the first time in her life, Faith didn't have her dad and she didn't know what to do with herself. Nothing made sense to her, living in a house with Natalie and Owen but not her papa.

When uncle Jay Jay brought him back though, Faith's world was glued back together again, she could finally breathe and for a second everything went back to normal and she thought they'd get the happy ending they deserved.

But then Natalie, the only motherly figure she had besides Maggie, broke up with Will and wouldn't let the duo back into her life.

That was the first ever heartbreak Faith experienced and somewhere deep down, she wasn't sure she was ever going to forgive Natalie for putting her and her papa through such pain like they hadn't been through so much already.

Her newly turned hatred was made apparent. Once the father and daughter moved out, whenever Faith found herself visiting the ED, she actively tried avoiding the woman and if they happened to stumble upon each other, Faith would send the hardest glare a seven-year-old could muster and not even a hi was exchanged.

Natalie's hurt didn't make Faith feel too guilty. She only felt a little bad when Will gently scolded her for being so cold to the woman who was supposed to be her mother once upon a time.

Faith was eight when she was introduced to Hannah. Ever since Natalie, Will had been more hesitant than ever to get into a relationship. The pain Faith went through post breaking up with Natalie had been long lasting and the thought of that happening again deterred Will from the dating scene.

But surprisingly, Faith was the first to propose he go forth with whatever his feelings for Hannah were. Somewhere deep down, apparently, Faith had a soft spot for the OBGYN that gave Will the confidence to move forward.

However, fast forward one year and no disrespect towards Hannah, but if Will could go back in time, he would've changed things.

Will could never forget the events that unfolded that night.

He was coming back from work, you were with Hannah at her apartment, spending the night together which made Will feel some sort of way knowing how well the two were getting along.

The apartment was pin drop silent when he entered which was surprising since it was a weekend and Faith always begged with her puppy eyes to stay up, Hannah could never resist them.

Just as he was taking his jacket off, he heard a familiar cry that caused the hair on his arms to stand on end, his head snapping up at the sound.

Will moved faster than he ever did before, taking large strides towards the distressing cries he barely heard from his little girl as she got older.

"Bubbles, what's-" Will cut himself off as he rounded the corner and caught himself in the bathroom doorway, gripping the doorframe so he wouldn't trip from how fast he was moving.

"Papa!" Faith's voice cracked as she cried. The second she saw her father; she scrambled up from where she was sat on her knees on the ground. "I w- I was just going to brush my teeth when I heard a bang and, and I found her..."

Faith sobbed into her father’s shirt, back turned to the unconscious woman on the floor, her face pushing into his torso as though she could burn away the image from her mind but she had seen enough.

Will immediately switched back on. "Bubbles, listen to me. I need you to go into her room and get that big bag that papa has at home and bring it. Can you do that for me Faith?"

Faith hiccupped, rubbing her red eyes as she nodded up at her dad. Will pressed a quick kiss onto her temple before watching her scramble out the bathroom allowing him to give all his attention to his girlfriend.

It was safe to say, that night did quite a number on Faith and Will found himself taking the blame.

Now in present time, Will hadn't dated anyone since Hannah. He talked to a few women at work and if things had been so much more simpler, something could've happened but then everything flashed before his eyes and he stopped himself.

Faith was eleven now and she was still the sole focus of his life besides work. He could never forgive himself for what he put her through with the women he tried bringing into their lives only for it to never work out.

In the end though, when all was done it seemed that just the two of them survived and thrived perfectly alone.

When Faith first came into Will's life, it was just the two of them battling alone together in a world neither could navigate and eleven years later, it was a little easier but there was still so much Will wished he could get rid of just for her sake.

The sound of the car door opening broke him out of his thoughts, his head turning as he smiled at his dishevelled daughter.

"Hey, how was school?" Will asked, softly smiling at her messy braid, tucking back the fly away hairs behind her ears before pulling away from the school.

Faith hummed, fiddling with her beaded bracelet. "Was good, I have a permission slip you need to sign."

"I'll do it tonight after work, make sure to remind me." Will told her as he started driving towards his brothers and sisters-in-law’s place. Despite his failing love life, his younger brother managed to settle down and Hailey loved Faith despite the short amount of time she knew her.

"Papa-" Faith stumbled over her words, picking the skin around her nails as she tried to form her question. "Um, are you happy?"

Will was caught off guard. His eyes widened a little as he took one hand off the wheel to stop Faith from picking her skin, his tutting making her stop instantly.

"What? Why would you ask that bubbles? Of course I am, I'm more than happy." Will answered confidently, looking at her at a red light to try understand what was going through her mind.

"Why? What happened at school?" Will's tone changed at the thought of someone saying something bad to his little girl.

"No! No! It was nothing like that I promise!" Faith hastily answered before her dad could turn the car back around to give the school a piece of his mind.

"It's just, you haven't gone on a date since Hannah..." Faith licked her lips nervously as she brought up Will's ex who didn't have the best lasting effects on them. "Is it because of me?"

"Of course not. Why would you think that?" Will asked her calmly, completely confused as to why she was thinking in such a way. "I promise you bubbles that I'm happy. You're all I need Faith."

While he drove, Will took a quick glance over to his right and found himself smiling at the adorable face Faith was making. Her eyes squinted from how hard she was smiling to herself at her father's comment.

"C'mere you little gremlin." Will said, welcoming how fast she got up from her seat to be enveloped into his arms. Squeezing as tight as he could, Will made sure not to suffocate her before pressing a kiss onto her hairline.

"Alright, love you lots. Have fun-"

"But not too much fun. I'll keep Uncle Jay in line." Faith rolled her eyes, already knowing what her dad was going to say since he'd been saying the same thing all her life.

Watching his not so baby girl run out the car and towards her uncle's home, Will felt his heart flutter, his chest all warm.

Yeah, he's made some questionable decisions regarding his love life but there was not one mistake made when it came to Faith. When everything came tumbling down, she was all that mattered and he wouldn’t have it any other way.

happy holidays @reversecarebeartrap ! im so sorry this took so long to get out, but i really appreciate your patience. i drew your otp, sam and hannah, along with your mention of any pet hcs! i always liked the idea of sam and hannah having met through a mutual love of riding and wanted draw what i think Hannah's horse would look like. i think his name would be buggy :))

Probably you get this a loott but I'm still reading your HOO AU in 2024! You guys make my heart smileee and warmth!

Soo wanted to ask youu... what were your favorite love stories to write from Percabeth?

missed this somehow but thank you so much!!! they were all so much fun in different ways.

Love Me Won't You was so fun because I got to go crazy making up this fake island and Hannah encouraged me to just go for it and getting to make up a whole history for it was just such a good time

Call me, Percy? was such a fun, (mostly) angst-free lark through teenage dreamland and I still think about it on especially gorgeous summer days

Merry Chrysler was a rollercoaster of trying to post in real time as much as possible while keeping to this arc we had thought up for their relationship. Really cool exercise tbh and the result is so happy <3 (and the two follow ups were just as fun too, we love the holidays around here but not nearly as much as we love Percy & Annabeth!)

and Game, Set, Match... what can I say other than the fact that it is a complete and utter masterpiece, and was me and Hannah's first full fic adventure together that jumpstarted all the fun we had together over the years 🥲

mostly I just really loved getting to tell fun stories with my friend who is now family to me and I'm so grateful for it all. And that fact that people are still enjoying any of these stories on occasion means the world to me because they were all made with immense amounts of love. Thank you so much for sending this. Wishing you the best 🩵

pairing: joe keery x f!reader (married)

warnings: JUST PURE FLUFF !!!!!! okay ONE sexual comment but thats it, use of y/n and she/her pronouns, random names used for relatives (besides parents)

a/n: in my joe keery era fr

⋅•⋅⊰∙ ☆ ∙⊱⋅•⋅

"why are you nervous babe? you saw them at the wedding?"

joe and y/n keery have been sitting in their small car parked in joe's parents' house for the past five minutes. y/n didn't know why she was nervous either, which explains why she didn't answer her husband's question.

joe grabs y/n's hand and rubs his thumb over hers. "i know it's gonna be a lot of my family. if you get overwhelmed at all, we can leave, okay?"

y/n nods, before leaning forward and placing a kiss on joe's cheek. "i love you," her voice is soft.

"i love you," joe responds, with nothing but adoration filling his eyes.

the couple make their way to the front door. joe knocks and not even a second later, the door opens revealing joe's mother, laura.

"oh you guys made it!" she exclaims, pulling her son into a hug. "hello y/n," she pulls y/n into a hug, making her relax slightly.

joe and y/n make it through the threshold of the house, and are instantly greeted by joe's older sister, maddie.

she envelopes both of them in hugs, and informs them all the nieces and nephews are in the living room. joe takes y/n's coat, and the food they brought from her. he kisses her temple before telling her he'd be in the kitchen.

y/n makes her way to the living room, and just as maddie said, five children were playing with toys or watching the cartoons on the tv.

"aunt y/n!" gracie yells, alerting the other four kids in the process.

gracie was maddie's oldest daughter, then rylan, and jack was their only boy.

joe's other sister hannah, has two boys, adam and tristan.

all of the children come running towards y/n, as she kneels on the floor to bring them all into one big group hug.

"hey kiddos! happy holidays," y/n smiles.

she ruffles jacks hair, before following all of them. she sits on the edge of the couch, watching all of their activies.

"what are you all up to?" y/n asks no one in particular.

"me and gracie are playing with our new dolls," rylan answers.

"we have another if you want to play!" gracie announces.

y/n objects, "oh no, i couldn't intrude on the tea party you two have going on."

y/n turns to the three boys on the other side of her.

"how have my favorite boys been?"

"good!" they all chorus, earning a laugh from y/n.

adam's quick to show her the new toys he got that morning, along with jack and tristan.

down the hallway and in the kitchen, laura and her husband, thomas, along with joe and his sisters were all adding the finishing touches to the christmas dinner.

"oh honey, can you call y/n and the kids in here for dinner?" laura asks. joe nods, before walkings towards the living room.

he peaks his head into the area. his heart melts at the sight in front of him.

y/n was sat on the floor besides the three boys, as tristan was explaining how his new trucks worked. she kept going back and forth between the boys and girls, as they were all excited about her being there.

joe jumps slightly at the feeling of a hand on his shoulder. laura looks over his shoulder at y/n and the kids.

"you picked a good one joe," she kisses his cheek before speaking again. "y/n, kids, dinner's ready."

the kids all immediately get up and run into the dining room. y/n kneels on the floor, and starts tidying the toys. joe walks over towards her. "y/n, you don't need to do that. those buggers are going to come right back and play with them after dinner."

"i don't mind joe," y/n dismisses.

joe holds his hand out, "come on, you heard my mom," he laughs while helping y/n stand, "dinner's ready."

y/n leans forward and kisses joe's lips softly. joe happily kisses back, without letting go of both of y/n's hands.

y/n tries pulling away but joe only pulls her into another kiss.

"ah ah ah," y/n places a hand on joe's chest and chuckles, "how about we skip dessert here, and you can have some when we get home?"

"oh i like that idea," joe kisses y/n's forehead, "i like that a lot actually."

I'm gonna end my brief moratorium on using Tumblr, this antisemitic shithole that I like venting to, with this photo of Hannah Senesh dressed up as a Hungarian Army officer for Purim. Because there's something beautiful and humanizing about it. I try to hold on the fact that our ancestors have been being Jewish for an unimaginably long time. The earliest evidence of Purim being celebrated goes back to the 5th century BCE. We are literally the descendants of the Israelites who originated in the Bronze Age. We were contemporaries with virtually every ancient Near Eastern empire. Our most important words--Yerushalayim, Yisrael, Tzion--have been spoken by our people for thousands of years. We are a people of the ancient world who have, unlike the Philistines and the Nuragics and the Moabites or the Ammonites and so on, have managed to preserve our identity and culture through the millennia, dispersion, and colonization. Almost every native peoples has lost their identity once they lost their land... but we held on. We are a people who were founded in the Bronze Age, and now regularly use modern technologies like laptops and cameras. Through every era of history, we have persisted.

All this is to say, Purim is a holiday which celebrates our survival and joy, above all else. It isn't just 'they tried to kill us, they failed, let's eat', it's also 'we are alive, and that's worthy of celebration!' Remember today that we aren't just celebrating Purim in isolation, but the Jews through history have done this act and we do it with them, together. Jewish angst and suffering is something that gets a lot of attention, as it should, but I think we should focus on our happiness too.

Because far more than misery, Judaism is about the joy of community.

The following morning, it was business at usual at the Donnellys' grocery store. Since it was the weekend, Hannah accompanied her dad to help out with chores.

Samuel: "I'm very proud of you, you know."

Hannah: "Um, thanks, Dad."

Samuel: "I mean it. The way you've been juggling school and your magical training, not to mention helping me out at the store? You're a good kid, Hannah. Oh, what am I saying? You're not a kid anymore, and I'm going to miss you when you go to college."

Hannah: "Dad, c'mon, we have phones and computers and besides, I'll be back for holidays and stuff."

Suddenly, Hannah felt a little guilty over what she and Rowan had done.

Then customers began arriving, and they had no more time to talk.

Among them was a striking blonde neither of them had seen before. They would've remembered if they had; she was the sort of woman one didn't soon forget.

Eliza *thinking*: "He is rather cute, in a shy, bumbling sort of way. Pity the state of this store suggests he isn't exactly swimming in simloeons."

Eliza: "Excuse me, dear, but do you happen to sell any Al Simaharan marinade spices?"

Hannah: "Um, I'm not sure...We're still waiting on a few deliveries, but I could ask my dad - "

Eliza: "Oh, don't trouble yourself, I'm happy to ask him myself."

Eliza felt the tell-tale tingle of a magical aura surrounding the girl, and knew she was talking to a fellow witch.

Interesting...

Eliza: "Hello there, my name is Eliza. Eliza Clare. I understand you are the owner of this fine store?"

Samuel put on his best salesman's smile, keeping his gaze firmly away from the woman's impressive cleavage which threatened to spill out of her low-cut top.

Samuel: "Samuel Donnelly, at your service. Is there something I can help you with, Ms Clare?"

Eliza: "Oh, I certainly hope so!"

Remember Eliza?

alright- individually for any character you feel writing for- how would the citizens of Hatchetfield react to Dan accidentally confessing his love???

You know it’s a small town with nothing to do when the local youth are all obsessed with the live saga of the news anchors. They all talk about it like it’s riverdale or some shit, any time either of them touches a shoulder or stares for too long, you’ll know about it the next day at Hatchetfield High. So I’ll start with the youngsters

Hannah & Lex are oddly more invested than you’d expect, so when they heard Dan Reynolds confess his love for Donna so casually Hannah screamed & jumped up from the couch & Lex is freaking out thinking something bad happened but Hannah rewinds the tv & now they’re both screaming & saying oh my god over & over & Lex is texting Ethan to get over here RIGHT NOW! (I think the reason why they care so much about it is because they were the closest thing to a mother & father figure they had growing up)

Ethan doesn’t get the hype but he pretends to be invested for their sake

Ruth is literally hyperventilating, she’s written so many fics about them falling in love, her coffee shop au is one of the most popular in the fandom. So she’s immediately posting about it & making gifsets & brainstorming her next fic

Richie & Pete are definitely invested, but they’re just here for the memes & they dunk on Ruth with their jokes & she’s like “STOOOP!”

Grace thinks their workplace relationship is scandalous, but secretly thinks it’s sweet & romantic

Steph acts all aloof about it, but she is secretly in the fandom & unknowingly reads Ruth’s fics about it & comments her “theories” about where the story’s going next & how they actually got together, stuff like that. So she’s internally dying & her heart is about to burst

Emma is annoyed by all the attention the town gives this meaningless shit & thinks it’s stupid

Paul is very meh about it & annoyed with the hype but he’s happy for them at least

Ok but what if Mr. Davidson called off work as a holiday the next day? I’d like to think so

Bill & Charlotte are the most excited in the office, just going back & forth completely fawning over how cute it was

Ted admires Dan’s “lady skills” but keeps loudly proclaiming that he knew they were boning, it was obvious, & he can just sense that kind of chemistry. Call him Cupid, so what?

Linda will turn it into the talk of the town is seconds flat, she’s on all the Facebook mom groups

Becky is excited because it “makes the news fun again” & has always liked their chemistry & she’s such a sucker for a good love story

Tom’s like meh whatever but when Dan admitted it on tv he’s like “oh shit” & rewinds it to record it for when Becky gets home from working the night shift because she’d die if she missed this

Merry Christmas everybody. Be it a day you are set to enjoy or not, I still hope it's good. I am well aware the holidays are not for everyone. I am sometimes one of those it's not for. I am all about Peace on Earth and Good Will to men and so on but a lot of the other stuff around it can be draining. This isn't some hack anti-commercialism thing, I actually quite like buying people presents, it's nice, it's just that big dates have big expectations and not everyone's life is set up to make it satisfying. In part that's on us, in that we shouldn't be slaves to expectations set by others. Hell is other people and so on, the road to self actualization and happiness is tossing aside other's expectations but you know, also, we live in the world and I haven't figured out how to give no fucks yet so I am not sure why I'd expect everyone else to. I am here to tell you if you don't love your Christmas I am sorry and you definitely aren't alone out there but it is just one day. Focus on getting through it and you'll be through it before too long. And if yours is a good one that's great, I hope you really enjoy your day, there is real magic out there sometimes so embrace it when you have it. I am posting Hannah Ray again cause I just liked her Christmas stuff and I have sort of punted all week given I was traveling and going through a pretty nasty depressive episode (which somehow some people guess. They saw though my pouting and acting like a giant baby and figured it out, wild) so it's been easy to just post girls in sexy Christmas stuff and Hannah has been my favorite so she is showing up here again. Merry Christmas everybody. Today I want to fuck Hannah Ray.

The Witch and the Harpies

@lwasanta @tanuki-pyon

I decided to go with hanbaradiakko for my gift to you. I wanted to give the piece a day/night feel, showing their loving poly relationship throughout. I thought that it would be a cool prompt to have Akko as a traveling witch and have Diana, Hannah, and Barbara as friendly harpies that can fly alongside her. Their feathers are fluffy and very cozy for nightly cuddles. (I also tried adding increased saturation but I was worried it looked bad so I made two versions of my piece, one with and one without.) Anyway, I hope you like it! Most of all, I hope you have a happy holiday season and a happy new year!

Hi friends! It's the first Saturday of the month, which means new Embroidery Pals. The collection is a bit smaller this time around, but includes some frequently requested wrestlers & smaller holiday embroidery loops inspired by holiday sweaters. All are available on my ko-fi shop & commissions are open, including the option to request one of the holiday loops. I’m super excited to share these new guys with everyone ✨

If you have a certain wrestler or wrestlers that would like captured in embroidery, I would be happy to work on a commission for you. You can check out my commission page on ko-fi or just send me a message on instagram, tumblr, or discord (thenightlands). Or if you have a wrestler you would like to see embroidered, I’d love to hear them as I work to expand the embroidered wrestlers roster.

All reblogs on Tumblr and follows, or likes on instagram are very much appreciated. I will be launching a contest once we hit 100 followers, so be sure to stay tuned for that.

Thank you everyone!
