Pairing: Billy Russo x F! Reader

Warnings: I bet you can’t guess🤣…fluffy bunnies and unicorns, overworked Billy, maybe a swear word? I’m not sure. Alluding to smexy time 😉

Word Count: 1.5K-ish

Summary: Billy’s grouchy, he’s overworked and needs a little break. You’re hoping a little something sweet will lighten his mood.

A/N: I’m sure if you’ve been following me for awhile, you know one of my Billy headcanons is that he has a massive sweet tooth. This little idea popped into my head, figured I’d run with it. I hope you like it 🩵

As always, thank you for reading!  I appreciate it so much and comments, reblogs are welcome and encouraged. Don’t be shy to tell me your favorite part. 💕💕 💕

Inside his home office, with his head buried deep in paperwork, Billy groaned and grumbled periodically as he carefully thumbed through the papers on his desk. Glancing from the printed pages to the computer screens, he narrowed his eyes and furrowed his brow. He was hard at work as always.

The office lights were dim and the warm glow from the desk lamp was easier on his eyes compared to the monitors he constantly stared at for hours on end. The work was just never finished sometimes, it followed him home, and Billy could never leave his work incomplete or what HE felt was incomplete.

That was the perfectionist in him.

The work kept coming in and he was always very busy but he loved it. He loved working, running his own company, and he was proud of the work he was doing. Billy wanted to have a purpose in life after being in the marines and with all of his hard work, life presented him with a great opportunity for himself and for others.

But sometimes you wanted him to slow down and enjoy the little things. You knew Billy had been working hard all day and mentioned he had more to do even after he came home for the evening so as a surprise, you strategically placed a piece of his favorite candy in the top center drawer of his desk. He never could resist those dark chocolate squares with the creamy caramel and a hint of sea salt inside. They were one of his favorites and you couldn’t wait for him to find it.

You could tell how busy he was just by how he answered the phone this afternoon. The tone of his voice was sharp, he gave you short one word responses, which led to a very quick apology when he realized he was taking his frustration out on you.

“Shit, I’m so sorry, sweet girl. I didn’t mean to snap at you.” Billy had said, gently. “Seems like everyone wants an answer from me at the same time, I’m just swamped.”

One corner of your mouth turned up into a half smile and you forgave him immediately. When you’re constantly bombarded with questions that demand answers, it wears on you, and you could only take so much.

You appreciated that Billy recognized he was taking his anger out on you because he didn’t always stop to think about how he was acting. Through trial and error, sometimes he had to learn the hard way about what it means to be in an actual relationship.

“I love you Billy Russo but don’t you dare take your bad day out on me.” You had to tell him on more than one occasion.

Up until he met you, Billy had lived his life the only way he knew how. He had always been in a constant state of survival mode, not knowing what it was like to be cared for and loved by anyone but you were patient with him and he learned quickly but still, he wasn’t perfect. And you didn’t expect him to be but he did need reminders to sneak in some play along with the work.

He continued to growl over the papers on his desk while you crept into his office to put some of your books away when you heard him open the center drawer to his desk. Biting back a smile, you could hear the noise the shiny blue foil paper made while in between his long agile fingers and the slight chuckle that escaped his lips.

You heard the sound of a pen fall onto a stack of papers as he reached for the other side of chocolate wrapper and out of the corner of your eye, you could see the childlike smile stretch across Billy’s lips as he removed the chocolate from its package.

He had finally taken a minute to breathe.

Just from one little square of chocolate, you watched the stress of Billy’s day float away as soon as he took that first bite. Growing up, he was lucky if he even got cheap penny candy at the group home let alone decadent dark chocolate. He savored every bite, tasted every note of that bittersweet chocolate and smooth buttery caramel.

Billy knew what it was like to have nothing. It was why he took such good care of everything he had now…his penthouse, his company, and…you. He knew it could all be taken away just as quickly as he acquired it and his delicious chocolate was no different.

“Was that from you, sweet girl?” Billy asked rhetorically with a wide Cheshire cat smile.

You loved to see the laugh lines around his beautiful onyx colored eyes every time he smiled at you. Nothing made you happier than to see Billy Russo smile.

Gripping your book tightly across your chest and still biting down on your lower lip, you nodded.

“Mmm hmm.” You finally replied. “You seemed like you were having a tough day. I thought it would be a nice surprise.”

Billy pushed back away from his desk, tasted the chocolate that remained on his thumb, and slowly walked over to you. His hands cupped your cheeks as he tilted your face up so he could look into your eyes before his lips collided with yours.

The taste of rich cocoa was still fresh on his tongue and the essence of sweet burnt sugar on his lips left you wanting to do nothing BUT taste him over and over again.

“It was a very nice surprise, my love. But chocolate or no chocolate, my day is always better when I come home to you.” Billy purred into your ear.

Warmth rushed to your cheeks as butterflies danced around in your stomach. His words made your heart flutter as he quickly pulled you into his chest, stroked your hair with his long nimble fingers, and told you over and over again how much he loved you.

“You always know when I need a break don’t you, y/n.” He said with a warm smile.

After putting your last book away, you snaked your arms around Billy’s neck and pulled his face close so his forehead was touching yours.

“Well Billy…you can be a little bit of a grouch when you’ve done nothing but work for 14 plus hours.” You replied, looking up at him through your long dark lashes.

“You think I work too much, baby?” Billy asked in a serious tone.

You started to nervously play with the buttons on his shirt, the fabric felt cool on the tips of your fingers and when you placed your hand against his chest, you could feel the rapid beating of his heart and all you had wanted to do was to put his fears to rest.

“I’m not goin’ anywhere, Billy. I just want you to take more breaks, that’s all.” You said in barely more than a whisper and with your eyes locked on his. “Besides…I know you can’t say no to sweets.”

Billy let out a slight chuckle. It made him love you even more because you could make him laugh and the sound of his laughter was music to your ears.

“You know me too well, beautiful. I promise to take more breaks. Now, ya don’t happen to have any more of that chocolate, do ya?” He asked as he licked his bottom lip.

Something about the way he asked for more, the velvet tone to his voice was so smooth and sexy, and his New York accent turned you on no matter what he was talking about.

You traced one finger along his jawline then turned and started to walk away from him toward the office door before your replied, “Tell ya what, lieutenant…if you can catch me, you can have another piece.”

“Are we still talking about chocolate, sweet girl?” Billy asked with a devilish smile.

Looking back over your shoulder, you replied, “Catch me and find out, Mr. Russo.”

And you took off running out of the office with Billy following close behind. He was too fast so he caught you easily, tossed you over his shoulder and headed for the bedroom.

“BILLY! Put me down! You can have all the chocolate you want!” You said in between laughs.

Billy gently smacked you on the ass before he replied, “Oh I will my love, but first I’m in the mood for something else that tastes even sweeter than chocolate.”

He loved all things sweet…especially you.

There was something so innocent and pure about the way he reacted to something as small as a piece of chocolate or the toy army man you gave him for his desk to the grander gestures of telling him “I love you” and finding him a first edition of The Picture of Dorian Gray. He loved them all the same.

He treasured them, and kept them as close as he possibly could because they all came from someone who wanted him, who loved him more than anything, and who would never ever leave him.

[tastesoftamriel]

You know those cheesy pasta dishes with all the fancy add-ins like heavy cream and garlic so we can all pretend to ourselves that we aren't just eating mac and cheese like overgrown children? What sort of equivalent dishes do the people of Tamriel enjoy, that are basically just dressed-up "kid food" dishes?

Who doesn't love a cheeky meal that brings back memories of childhood? Across Tamriel, you'll find all manner of simple, hearty foods that will make you feel like a kid again!

Altmer

In Summerset, young and old alike enjoy mochi, a tasty sweet snack made from chewy glutinous rice flour. Mochi comes in many varieties, with fillings like sweet peanut or black sesame paste. However, almost everyone's favourite is a cold mochi filled with soft gelato of various flavours. My favourite combination is matcha mochi wrapped around a moreish azuki bean ice cream centre.

Argonians

Is there anything that makes you feel more like a kid than some snacking? Argonians are huge fans of anything that packs a crunch, both sweet and savoury. Whether it's spicy and sweet crickets, dark saltrice sauce-coated mealworms, or just good old prawn crackers with some dipping sambal, be prepared to snack your way all day long in Black Marsh.

Bosmer

If you're one of those people who stands in the kitchen gnawing a block of cheese at midnight, you're in good company in Valenwood. A popular late-night treat served at street food vendors across the Province is a simple cup of grilled witchetty grubs slathered in timber mammoth cheese sauce and topped with pulled pork. The grubs are meaty in flavour, and the pungent timber mammoth cheese complements the pulled pork when mixed all together, as the locals enjoy it.

Bretons

Pain au chocolat? Yes please! These deliciously buttery puffed pastries are essentially rectangular croissants enveloping delicious dark chocolate. Served warm, they're sure to make any breakfast or teatime a happy one! To really satisfy those chocolate cravings, pair with a classic Breton hot chocolate, complete with marshmallows and whipped cream.

Dunmer

Marshmerrow cake is the ubiquitous Dunmeri dessert that has gained popularity far beyond the borders of Morrowind due to its mild flavour and unique candy aroma. A soft sponge cake, which is sometimes soaked in comberry brandy, is layered with sweet marshmerrow crème patissiere, caramelised marshmerrow crumble, and maraschino comberries. Sure to knock some years off your age and put a couple more holes in your belt (it's impossible to stop at one slice. Source: me).

Imperials

There's nothing quite like homemade gnocchi with ragout for Imperials when it comes to comfort food. While this homey dish is prevalent across Cyrodiil, every household cooks the dish differently. In mine, my mother pan-fries the gnocchi in an obnoxious amount of butter, and tops it with her top-secret slow-cooked lamb and red wine ragout. While I cannot give away the secrets to her ragout, I highly recommend trying this delicious dish a try when you need to warm yourself, body and soul.

Khajiit

If you think you can turn away cinnamon and cardamom churros with a cup of moon sugar caramel dip, you're deluding yourself. This delicious treat can be found across Elsweyr and is considered one of the Province's most famous foods. Khajiiti churros, which are made from a mix of rice and tapioca flour, have a moist and chewy texture beneath a crisp, golden brown outer layer. They're served hot from the wok, with a cup of moon sugar caramel syrup. A truly divine pairing!

Nords

Spätzle is something I've written about in the past, and it's one of the best things I know (ask any resident of Skyrim and they'd tell you the same). These chunky egg noodles may look unrefined compared to Khajiiti vermicelli, but make up for it when liberally doused in a creamy cheese sauce and topped with fried onions. I like spicing mine up, quite literally, with some chili powder I purchased at a Sentinel bazaar.

Orcs

Nothing screams comfort food (and mess) quite like a good old echatere sausage hot dog. The echatere sausage, rather akin to Blackwood chorizo in flavour, is grilled over hot coals and served in a sourdough bun, served Wrothgar style with a good amount of horseradish mayo, fried radish chips, caramelised onions, pickles, and crispy dried baby shrimp topping. I'd say you can't stop at just one, but it's a hefty meal you can eat with one hand!

Redguards

I have probably written about gulab jamun in the past, a delicious, albeit cloying dessert popular throughout Hammerfell. An iconic dish at festivals and parties, gulab jamun is prized by dessert-lovers for its velvety, syrupy texture. These fluffy balls of cardamom-scented cottage cheese are fried and soaked in a fragrant saffron and rose water syrup, and topped with crushed pistachios. So simple, so good, and so moreish. Just be sure to stop at three, because any more and the sugar rush will send you to Aetherius!

[intimidating-fettuccine]

What would it be like to spend valentine's day with Lj and jason (separately please)

Sorry this is so late compared to Valentine's, but I spent a couple days trying to work on this, so I hope you enjoy :))))

Laughing Jack:

Jack never really thought he'd be the mushy type to get excited about Valentine's Day, but really, that was just until he met you, and now it's one of his favorite times of the year to spoil you and celebrate his love for you. As I've said before, Jack is a candy maker. You can probably expect several different kinds of homemade candies awaiting you when you wake up on Valentine's morning, ranging from chocolates to caramels to your favorite hard candies. You can also expect a brand new teddy bear, knit lovingly for you by Jack, and made with your favorite colors, with a black and white heart stitched lovingly above where its heart should rest. While he showers you with gifts, he keeps the day relatively subtle, just wanting to spend a bunch of time snuggled up with you, drowning you in his love and affection. Although, he does take you to a place of your choosing (fancy or relaxed) for dinner, and afterward he'll bring you back home for his final surprise, a deliciously backed cake for dessert, decorated with love just for you. Spoiling you is one of his favorite things to do, and Valentine's is the best excuse to give him a chance to make you feel as loved and appreciated as you make him feel.

Jason:

Jason tends to be a bit meticulous when it comes to Valentine's Day, but that's mostly just because he wants everything to be perfect for you. Now, it has been said that Jason can't cook, BUT, he absolutely CAN make things that are delectably sweet, and that's what you find yourself waking up to, some delicious freshly made crepes, filled with your favorite fruits and syrups, and whipped cream, elegant enough to be served at the finest of restaurants. Jason then spends the morning getting ready with you, picking out both your outfits (brand new, made by Jason himself, tailored just to your liking), before taking you out for a day of spoiling and showing you off to the Underworld as the one he chose to be his partner. He takes you shopping, out on a lovely stroll through the best parts of town, before taking you out for dinner at the most delicious and elegant restaurant in all of the Underworld, something he was only able to secure thanks to his status, and then, when you arrive home, you find your favorite desserts, baked by him and arranged into the shape of a heart. The glowing look on your face makes it all worth it, just as it makes his own face turn as red as his hair as he scoops you up into a loving embrace, thanking you for allowing him to have the chance to love you.

A matcha tea and some pastries, that’s all you are getting for this valentine’s. Romantically, I mean.

“Are you finished?” he asks, a little bit impatient. The prince of Germa plays with the rests of a sugar packet on top of the table.

“Y-yes. You didn’t have to come here nor give me a romantic date for valentine’s. I know you don’t like romanticism” you mumble, a little annoyed at him pressuring you with arms crossed. It’s been hard for Ichiji to accept the fact that he actually had a heart and he is trying hard… but, it is still a little uncomfortable for him to be seen with a girl on a sweet bakery of Totto Land.

He sighs, loudly, through his nose. “It’s not that. Look outside. It’s about to rain, and it’s gonna be sticky… I wonder why the clouds in here are made of candy” he -for the tenth time in the day- complains about him staying in Whole Cake Island.

You take the last bite of a sweet chocolate filled pastry. “So that they balance the amount of bitterness you bring with you, Ichiji…” you murmur, so low it’s almost inaudible. But he isn’t a normal human, he can hear you.

“That’s it. Stand up. Stand up, you brat” he orders, biting his lower lip. He isn’t like his brothers, the next king of Germa should show everybody how a proper royal should behave. He isn’t screaming nor making a big fuss, but, he won’t allow you to be so disrespectful towards him… specially cause, Ichiji is more than your lover…

He is, also, your daddy…

You giggle. Nothing excites you more than seeing him getting completely into roll. That was exactly what you were looking for, after all.

The red-haired leaves enough berries to pay half the bakery on top of the table, and orders you to walk before him. As you do, he whispers from behind, with his hands around your waist and his imponent being crushing your whole body. “You are getting so punished the moment we get home… you have no idea, you little brat”

You swallow. It’s gonna hurt.

You weren’t very fond of the chariot, so you requested for him and you to go by feet to the “valentine’s date”. He said no, but ultimately, and driven by your puppy eyes that were equally innocent as lustful, he acceded.

The sky, turned into a big blob of pinkish clouds, roars and menaces with your bodies to get completely damped in some kind of syrupy rain. “We are gonna get sticky… I told you- you are getting punished for this too” he mentions, with a sadistic smirk that makes you tremble.

“Am I gonna be punished for the rain, too?” you ask, feeling the first candy smelling drop falling on top of your nose tip.

He stops you, holding you strongly from your wrist. Black gloves aren’t enough to stop the heat coming from his hand. “Yes, I’ll punish you for any reasons I believe you should. You dare to question me? Should I fuck you harder so you understand you can’t do that, my sweet little brat?”

You widen your eyes. Look at his hand squeezing your skin, and then to his crystalline blue eyes. Ichiji doesn’t wear his glasses when he is around you. The prince wants to see your true colours, not only your image tinted behind a cherry-coloured glass.

You purr your lips together and flash your sweet eyelashes at him. A total doll for him, a doll to break, to use and please.

“Don’t look at me like that, or I will fuck you against that chocolate wall right there. Walk faster, we are getting absolutely dampened in this sugary shit”

You giggle and walk faster to match his quick and strong steps. But, even if you ran under the rain you will completely coated with it no matter how fast you go. You stick your tongue out from time to time, to taste the flavour of today’s rain. Sometimes is apple, sometimes is grape, but today it tastes like strawberries… coincidence? Maybe…

As fast as you get inside his own side of the royal home he already has standing up in this territory -given to Germa by no other than Yonko Luffy-, he takes his black shirt off.

“I literally despise being covered in this, let’s go. We should get a bath” he orders, but you stop him.

“Uhm… daddy? You know… why don’t you try the syrup before you clean it off me?” you ask, letting your dress fall into the ground. Fine pink lacey lingerie that him chose personally, garnishes your body, startling him.

Ichiji frowns, and his eyes narrow. He sighs and pulls you closer from your arm. He isn’t going towards you; you are going towards him. His soft lips land on your neck. The prince first smells and then licks your skin.

“You- ugh… is this strawberry?” he mumbles, ready to bite your flesh as that sweet fruit is his favourite. You nod, giggling. And allow him to suck your entire skin off the fruity rain.

Desperately, he pushes you towards the bathroom but not once he stops kissing your skin. You can’t stop whimpering under his possessive touch and kisses, and skilfully he gets to open the tab of the shower. There is no even time to fill the bathtub.

“Get inside, you little strawberry brat” he says, lifting you just enough to get inside the shower. He follows you, pinning you against the slippery marble wall.

You can feel his whole body pressing you, he still has his white trousers on. Ichiji didn’t even care in taking them off… but they are becoming wet, and they feel like a trap for his growing erection.

The prince proceeds to take your bra and panties off -rip them away- and then his own pants. The metallic sound of his belt resonates inside the little cubicle and your vision gets blurry because of the water falling on you.

“I was thinking about punishing you harder, but since you were so deliciously covered in that syrup… you deserve a reward” he purrs in your ear, his lips grazing your cheek, his sex already resting in between your ass cheeks.

“Thank you, daddy ~ I knew you would like my taste” you moan, moving your hips side to side to feel his wet tip touching your sex.

Ichiji grunts, you kill him every time you talk so sweet, so innocently. You break his self-control manners when it comes to fucking you.

“Spread then, sweet one” he mumbles, using his knee to make your legs apart and some space for him to use your cunt.  

As soon as you are ready, he doesn’t even wait and the tip of his sex rests tauntingly on your entrance. “Daddy… gi- fuck me, please ~” you whine and moan, you want him inside once and for all. “Daddy! Come on! Why aren’t you fucking me? Do it!” you protest as he laughs, but it’s been too much…

He impales you, hard, violently. You can even feel a bulge forming on your lower belly from how deep he went. His hands have you trapped by your hips, and your cheek gets squeezed against the wall. You cough as you have gasped so loudly you got some of the water on your throat.

“Sh sh, breathe! I wanted to fuck you slowly but roughly. However, this brat seems not to know how to behave after all” he whispers, biting the lobe of your ear. “No strawberry syrup will save you now”

And he was truth to his words now. Rough. Hard. Violently. Mercilessly. The Vinsmoke hips are some kind of mortal weapon, and his thrusts are killing you.

“Come as much as you want, the shower will clean it off you little whore. Let daddy ruin your little cunt” he scoffs as he keeps fucking you, making you shiver, almost even crying from all the pleasure.

“Ye- yes, daddy ~”

[pyraelia]

February 19, 2024 Daily Writing Challenge Day 2 Suppress/Pastel

Pyraelia frowned a bit as she considered the final piece of the care package puzzle. 

It had been easy enough to fill little airtight containers with hot broth, pork belly, cooked noodles, chili crisp and various toppings from the ramen cart Aerden liked in Silvermoon. Her delicate scrawl covered the outside of them, an enchantment she’d crafted herself locked the internal contents in time at the moment the lids had closed. When opened again it would be like no time had passed at all. 

She’d been clever enough to patent that spell, and wise enough to market it to the Horde military as a crucial, “inexpensive” component of keeping the troops fed. They’d bought in, and luckily, so had the Alliance military — alongside many other individual shipping companies. It was nice to not need the Sunmote inheritance, and her pride swelled a little as she taped pretty, iridescent paper around that part of the package to keep it safe and together. 

Next up had been another container full of two dozen “kitchen sink” cookies — the kind they’d occasionally gotten up and made together after a bit too much thistle on a hang out night. Some were chocolate chips, pretzels and peanut butter bits, others were potato chips, sea salt and caramel. Whatever was on hand to throw in and make a treat with. That box she wrapped up in a paper the color of a soft blue eggshell. 

The third was full of a mix of wrapped candies and chocolate bars from the shop near his apartment, all traditional Silvermooon staples — enough to share, just in case. That one was just a bag, but she was still able to wrap it up in a rosy quartz colored paper and stack on top. 

But the LAST piece, that was the trouble. 

She huffed, knowing she was overthinking the whole thing. He’d been out on duty for so long, it was hard to know where he’d had to pause his Captain Azeroth reading. Did they ship out to the troops? Surely they did, if requested. It was Captain Azeroth. What if he already had a bunch and was up to date? Ugh. 

Still, the man at the comics shop had been quite helpful and had pointed her toward a storyline that was being printed adjacently from the main comics. Some time loop shenanigan that had started to spiral off too much into its own, separate enough entity that the creator was pursuing it through a new run. 

That seemed safer. But what if he DID want the regular run? 

It didn’t matter. He’d be happy that she’d thought about it at all, probably. 

She’d bought the limited run, and even with all the other parts of the care package ready to go still waffled about it. Pyraelia steeled her resolve and carefully tucked the brown paper bag the comics had been put in when they sold them to her in between some of the other treat boxes. 

Then came the note. She’d already sent a card of thanks for the flowers he’d sent her for her birthday, but this felt like it maybe needed to be a bit more than that. Sana had asked her a few nights previous why she hadn’t said anything yet; did she need to? There wasn’t anything to really confess, not here on ink and paper. Of course he knew, didn’t he? 

She squashed down some of her more intrusive thoughts before putting her pen to paper. 

“Dear Aerden, 

It can be hard being so far away from home and all your favorites for such a long time. I’m sure you’re doing amazing. I sincerely hope everything included after this card will brighten your day up a little! 

There’s SO much to catch you up on when you’re given shore leave. Or whatever they call it. A break? That seems too normal. 

Anyway, enjoy and know that you are missed! 

With love,

Pyra” 

She shoved the card into a lavender envelope and boxed everything up together in a simple white box that she took to the shipping mailmentals as soon as she'd sealed it all shut. Better to get it out the door now before she could change her mind!

Halloween AU (kinda)

----------------------------------------

A/N: Just a lil fic of "What would the main party members of Baldur's Gate 3 think of Halloween". Also there's no story spoilers what so ever, hooray!

Enjoy! 🎃🖤

------------------------------------------

Astarion

"Why of course I have a costume darling, is it not obvious? I'm a vampire, how much more scary can I be?"

Ends up with more candy than he started with when he was supposed to be handing it out. You suspect his sweet tooth might have something to do with it.

Tells great "scary stories" around the campfire at night, which are weirdly descriptive. You start to wonder if they're more fact than fiction.

Gale

Has more fun reading up on ancient Halloween traditions, myths, and origins than anything else.

Manipulates the weave to decorate the camp with translucent spectres that swoop overhead.

Has a suspicious amount of capes and outfits for his beloved tressym, Tara.

His campfire story going on too long until Lae'Zel threatens to silence him...permanently.

Karlach

Absolutely adores Halloween.

Would 100% give herself a stomach ache from eating too much candy.

Sad that she can't hug all the adorable kids in their fun costumes. Instead makes up for it by giving them too much candy.

Keeps giggling during the ghost stories.

Lae'Zel

Cannot wrap her mind around the concept of Halloween. "Why are children encouraged to be frightened? In my crèche I would have slain the other frightened children before they had a chance to draw their weapons. "

Pretends to hate candy but somehow all of Shadowheart's chocolate caramels mysteriously dissappear during the night.

Enthusiastically tells battle tales round the campfire because "real events are much more gratifying than made up nonsense".

Shadowheart

"I don't remember celebrating Halloween before, Lady Shar doesn't care for such frivolities."

Keeps pointing out inconsistencies in the ghost stories until Gale suggests a silencing spell.

Insists she's not interested in candy until the peanut butter cups make an appearance.

Discovers a joy in leaping out at the others to scare them, Astarion especially.

Wyll

Loves Halloween for the sheer joy it brings kids.

Surpringly not a fan of candy, so he gives his share to Karlach. Who more than happily accepts.

Watches from a distance as the other tell ghost stories. He's had enough real life horror to last a life time, thank you very much.

Isn't easily spooked, much to Shadowheart's annoyance. But it doesn't stop her from trying.

[foxilayde]

Imagine spending Christmas with Nathan Bateman at The Compound.

You’ve decorated the house with warm twinkle lights (“honey these are TACKY. I can program the existing house lights to any stupid color”), balsam scented candles (“why’d you get these, we’re in the middle of a FOREST, the place already smells like tree sap”), Christmas music, tinsel, an ornamented tree in the living room (“Jesus, babe what’d I say? We’re SURROUNDED by these things. Did you really have to get Dave to helicopter in a Douglas Fir from Williams Sonoma?…. Yes I know what Williams Sonoma is, it’s on the fucking credit card statement, that’s how.”) You make hot chocolate with peppermint candy canes (“do you know how much sugar is in that cup you’re sipping? No thanks.”)

He’s a bit of a Grinch. He rolls his eyes when it’s your turn to pick the movie for your movie night and you choose “Elf”. He doesn’t laugh, doesn’t touch the caramel popcorn you made either. He folds his arms and grits his teeth when you laugh and quote your favorite lines along with the movie.

When it’s his turn to choose a movie he picks The Shining.

“The fucking Shining, Nathan? The Shining??”

“What? You love The Shining!”

“Of course I love The Shining, but it’s not a Christmas movie!”

“It’s Christmas adjacent.”

“How so?!”

“There’s… snow. And family.”

“You’re absolutely right, who could forget the great heartwarming Christmas theme of chasing your child with an axe through the snow? It’s practically Rockwellian.”

“Jesus. Fine. No Kubrick. How about Die H—“

“I knew you were going to say Die Hard. Fine. Die Hard. Great compromise Nate, really. Nothing says cherishing warmth and peace like C4 down an elevator shaft.”

You fold your arms and sit back against the couch stiffly in a very Nathan-like fashion.

“There is a love b-plot with Holly.”

“I said fine, Nate. Que it up.”

You don’t get up to make the candied pecans you’d been planning on. You seethe and use your frustration to push back your tears. What a jerk.

If it’s any consolation, Nathan isn’t engrossed in the film either. He looks cold, folding his arms for warmth in his thin henley. You’d usually wrap his grumbling ass up in a fluffy blanket, kiss his cheek, and offer him some herbal tea or hot cider (to which he’d unequivocally decline and request a beer instead). But you don’t. You both sit a cushion’s distance apart, unswaddled, unsnacked, and unhappy. Nathan glances over to you about every 10 seconds, his demeanor shifting until halfway through the film he pauses John McClane and asks, “I can’t enjoy the movie when you’re acting like this.”

You tamp down the urge to screech at him like a tea kettle, and instead speak to him in a level sarcastic tone he can relate to.

“I apologize, Nathan. I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to want to enjoy something with the person you love, only to have them be rude and cold. Sincerest fucking apologies.”

You don’t look at him, you wrap your arms tighter around yourself and stare at the still frame of Bruce Willis in the air shaft, feigning engrossment.

“I’ve been a dick. I’m sorry, it’s just it’s fucking Q4 and the dev team launched the latest hardware so goddamn late in the fall it’s been a—“

“I get it. I’m sorry you’re stressed. and I’m sorry for foisting all this hokey shit on you.” You gesture around the room to the twinkle lights, tinsel, tree and snowflake paraphernalia. “I should have known you were stressed about work and it wasn’t fair trying to force you to be all Holly Jolly.”

Nathan scoots closer to you and takes your hand in his, playing with your fingers when he says, “work should never be an excuse for me treating you like crap. I’ve been bonafide fucking scrooge, spitting on tiny Tim and shit.”

“Am I tiny Tim in this scenario?”

“Nah. Jacob Marley, without a dou—“

“Shut up, ass!” You shove Nathan’s shoulder and you both laugh. He brings you in for a tight hug and pulls you down to his chest for a cuddle.

“You know what I did for Christmas last year?”

“What?” You finger the texture of his cream colored Henley.

“Promise you won’t tell?”

“I think it’s pretty clearly stated in that NDA that all your intellectual property remains a secret on penalty of death? or something equally dramatic?”

“I was here. Alone. didn’t even realize it was Christmas till I tried zooming Ted about something or other and saw everyone in the office was offline. When I put two and two together I left the lab, drank about a gallon of sake and Sapporo, watched ‘Its a Wonderful Life’, and… cried.”

“You did not.”

“I did.”

“Awww, Nate-y poooo, everytime a bell rings an Angel ge—“

You squeal when Nathan flips you over on the couch, hovering above you, he tickles your neck aggressively with his beard as he playfully peppers the underside of your chin with kisses.

“Penalty of death, remember?”

“Your tender side is safe with me, Ebenezer.”

Nathan looks into your eyes for a few beats. Really stares into them before glancing around the room at all the warm glowing decor.

“The place looks nice.”

You smile up at him, warm happy tears pricking at the corners of your eyes when you smooth your hand down his cheek and into his soft beard.

“Thanks.”

He continues to stare at you. You suspect there’s a secret vulnerable monologue going on in his head when he stares into your eyes. things he’ll probably never say, never admit, never profess. He’s like an iceberg this one. Most would disregard him as “cold” and move on. But you know better. Even if you can’t see it , you know the depth of him beneath it all.

“Merry Christmas” you whisper

“You filthy animal!” you both say at the same time, hugging each other in a fit of mild laughter.

“Oooh Home Alone. Let’s watch that one!”

“Sounds great.”

You grab the fuzzy blanket, prep the candied pecans, and watch the film; cuddled up all cozy with Nathan as snow falls silently outside the glass walls of your glowing little sanctuary.

[thelaundrybitch]

So I've seen the post floating around about Donnie and his coffee, but my question is: Even though there is a perfectly good working coffee maker (or three) in the lair, which of the boys horrifies Donnie by making the instant stuff. And which one either jokingly or seriously mentions just chewing the stuff straight up?

***Original Post this ask refers to, along with my Don HC's for coffee, can be found HERE

Alright,

First of all, this ask straight up made me squeal with joy. You got the wheels in my brain cranking overtime 

And. I. LOVE. IT. 🙌

Also, I’ve been thinking about it since yesterday, and here’s my hot take…

Reblogs only, please!

Raph isn’t a huge coffee fan. Boytoy likes it sweeter than candy.

Mocha-extra-sugar-squeeze-of caramel-douse-it-with-chocolate-syrup AND whipped cream on top?

Yes, please.

This is the coffeeless coffee drinker, my pals.

And you thought Don was bad with his sweet tooth 😂❤️

Mike doesn’t really care for coffee.

He doesn’t like the way it makes him feel.

He’s the one that’s going to tell Don to get rid of that big-assed, stupid eyesore from his kitchen and just chew the beans straight.

What does Don do?

Mentions it to Raph - in slight annoyance.

What does Raph do? 

Creates the ice-blended cookie crumble coffee.

What is this, you ask?

It’s an ice-blended, mocha-espresso drink topped with whipped cream, drizzled chocolate, and sprinkled with Oreo cookie crumbles.

The best part?

He blends the ice, mocha, and espresso WITH ground coffee beans.

And it’s absolutely fucking delicious.

What makes it EVEN BETTER?

Mike taking a sip and thoroughly enjoying this newfound beauty of a coffee drink.

And don’t worry,

Raph figures out how to make a decaf version for his youngest broski 😍🧡❤️

Oh, my sweet, sweet Leonardo.

Coffee isn’t even in his vocabulary.

Tea.

Tea for days.

He refers to Coffee as “The C-word.”

He tried it once when he was a teenager.

Straight from Don’s morning mug.

The poor guy didn’t sleep for days.

Meditation? 

Out of the question.

Katas?

He was a fucking maniac.

However…

The lair was very clean that day after that one splendiferous sip.

He totally blames that one sip of coffee for his OCD now.

And let's not forget your question about instant coffee.

That.

That.

THAT.

Is something Don refuses to acknowledge is even IN the lair.

Why is it there?

Splinter.

Splinter drinks it.

But only when Don makes an unusual appearance at breakfast time.

It goes something like this:

Don walks into the kitchen and brews himself his triple shot hazelnut latte, and sits at the table with a homemade frosted cinnamon bun - courtesy of Mike.

Splinter wanders in, fully set on making his morning tea.

He sees Don enjoying his fancy-schmancy coffee and sweet treat.

What does he do?

He goes to the forbidden cabinet

Retrieves the blasphemous instant coffee tin.

And brings his cup of hot water and said tin to the table.

Don looks up out of the corner of his eye and visibly cringes

Splinter S L O W L Y adds scoop, after scoop, after scoop of the abomination to his mug.

And stirs it, making sure the spoon sCrApEs the bottom of the cup

It’s like a train wreck.

Don can’t look away.

Splinter picks his mug up and slorps the drink as a 5-year-old would with soup from a spoon.

After the third slorp Don stands up in a huff and storms from the kitchen with his latte and pastry

muttering something about needing to finish his 'research'

Splinter chuckles

Stands up

DUMPS OUT the coffee

And makes himself a cup of tea.

Random ROTTMNT Bros Headcanons

Prefers crunchy snacks

A moka type of guy.

Needs to have something sweet after dinner or else he feels like the day isn't over

Loves Sanrio characters. Hello Kitty, My Melody and Cinnamonroll are his favorites

Cracks his knuckles and neck constantly. Sounds super loud and concerning ("dude you ok?" Is usually what he hears after)

Finds ASMR relaxing but dislikes slime videos

Drinks A LOT of water and is reminding his brothers (mostly Donnie and Mikey) to stay hydrated

LEO

Likes chewy candy and lollipops. Go-to candy is Starbursts

Iced caramel macchiato guy. Will try seasonal drinks as long as they're iced. Only has hot drinks at night, it's like his little ritual

Takes forever to get ready for the night. Has a 10 step skincare routine that he is very diligent about

Has very rough but pretty hands. No matter how much lotion he applies his skin remains a bit on the dry side

Has a beautiful voice when humming but when he actually tries to sing he screams. Not tone deaf, just has bad projection

Likes to build figurines and model cars

The walls on his room are completely covered by posters, drawings (by Mikey of course) and pictures. Not a lot of frames, prefers tape

Likes those reddit voiceover TikToks

Tosses around in his sleep a lot and often kicks his blankets off. Sleeps with his mouth open and wonders why his throat feels dry.

DONNIE

Likes sour candy and salty snacks. Go-to's are those Airheads rainbow strips and Sour cream and onion chips.

His usual coffee order is a cold brew. Likes clean and intense flavors and NEEEDS his caffeine. Very little to no sugar, might add milk if he's in a particularly good mood.

Picky eater except when he cooks for himself. Knows what he likes and doesn't trust anyone else to make food exactly how he wants it (maybe will let Mikey cook for him but will micromanage him. Mikey hates it but complies most of the time)

Cannot eat spicy things at all. Ever so often he tries to see if he likes it he never does

Chews a lot of gum

Won't drink water unless it's flavored somehow and ICE COLD. Otherwise he feels like he can taste it and gets grossed out.

Most of the things he owns are covered in stickers

His phone screen is cracked but visible. Destroys headphones and has to replace them frequently

His room is the messiest but somehow never misplaces things. Has those "mom powers" where he finds lost things without even looking

Snorts and wheezes when he laughs

Collects gachapon miniatures and pins

Fave art medium to use is spray and acrilic paint. Least favorite is colored pencils and watercolor

✧✧✧✧

I have so many more of these headcanons. In the last month Rise has been occupying the majority of my brain and I need other people to know about my hyperfixation.

Also if I made any spelling/grammar errors I appreciate corrections! English is not my first language and sometimes my brain glitches

Hope you enjoyed and let me know if you want any more ꒰⁠⑅⁠ᵕ⁠༚⁠ᵕ⁠꒱⁠˖⁠♡

[caesarclowningaround]

please inform me of mickey miranda’s halloween thoughts. does he like costume parties? does he like dressing up? WHAT is his favorite candy. i want so many details INCLUDING CHILDHOOD STUFF!!!!

Mickey LOVES a costume party!! He isn't one to make himself look too silly (no joke costumes 😔), but he loves wearing a costume that will be eye-catching and original!! If he's invited to a Hallowe'en party, he will go to it, even if he doesn't like the host. He thinks they tend to be the most fun, the most wild, and ofc he likes to show off in a costume 😏

Masquerades are his favorite. They're a bit more elegant than a regular costume party, and he likes the excitement of people not knowing who he is - depending on who the person is of course, if they know him well enough they'll spot him instantly. But still, he likes the hint of mystery with these kinds of parties

Probably candy or caramel apples, but in terms of modern candy he's also fond of Reese's cups P: He hates getting gum, but otherwise he's not too picky about his candy. Chocolate is always accepted, taffy is definitely getting traded out, lollies and hard candy are good

I wish I could go deeper into his childhood, but sadly I have not done enough research into 19th century South American Halloween-season traditions to confidently talk about it 🙈 Overall I like to think he enjoyed whatever celebrations were kept and in the years following his mother's death, he would always go to her grave and talk to her, hoping she could hear him on the other side

Of course, once he started spending his autumns in England, he started doing much different things. He learned all about Victorian Hallowe'en parties, bobbing for apples, and overall spending time with his schoolmates (mostly Edward). All Hallow's Eve was a great opportunity the schoolboys take to make all sorts of mischief on school grounds and the little village nearby, and Mickey was certainly right in the center of such antics. It was a chance to play pranks on teachers and schoolmates alike (a lot of the time, not in the kindest of ways).

Only once were they caught and it was by one of their professors who chalked it up to "boys will be boys" but gave Mickey and Edward detention for a week. Mickey knew they'd gotten off easy, but he made sure never to prank that teacher again

Overall, Mickey ADORES Halloween! The sweets, the parties, the flirting (because of course he always wears flirts at masquerades), the costumes, the scares and the laughs. If there was one holiday fit for Mickey Miranda, it's Halloween 🎃

Twix

One-Shot Masterlist Complete Masterlist

One-shots based on this May prompt list. Prompt 7: "Please can I have it? It's the last one."

A/N: Fun fact, I was originally going to write this about Thor and PopTarts! 🤣🤣 Warnings: Fluff Pairings: Loki x Reader Word Count: 810

“Is that the last Twix bar?” You asked with sad wide eyes. Loki had just unwrapped it and was about to bite into it when you came into the kitchen.

“I believe it is.” He said with a smirk. He was about to continue when you made a sad whimper as you watched him. He let out a big sigh and rolled his eyes. “I don’t suppose you want it, do you?” he asked grudgingly.

Truth be told, you did want it. Tony loves to keep the confection on hand. Especially when he found out it was your favorite candy bar. You always took one at the end of the week as a reward for getting through the shit-show that you called your life. It’s not an extravagant reward, but you’re not really an extravagant person.

You knew it wasn’t just for you. Everyone was welcome to it. So you didn’t want to sound like a brat and claim that the sweet was off-limits. “No. It’s ok,” you said. “You enjoy it. I’ll just buy one from the general store down the street.”

Loki didn’t believe you one bit. He knew you were lying. He knew that you delighted in the sweet treat every week as a sort of prize. He’d watch you enough to know that about this time, every Saturday night, you would come into the kitchen pantry and swipe one for yourself. You would sit on the balcony, savoring each morsel while you cut yourself off from the world completely. He often wondered what it would be like to just sit with you and do nothing. Just letting the silence erase the bad moments of the week.

“Here,” Loki said, offering the chocolate bar to you. “You can have it.” He saw your spirits lifted. Your eyes sparkled and you had the most charming smile that took his breath away. You were about to grab the sweet from him and say an unending amount of ‘thank yous,’ when he quickly snatched it back. “But I want something in return.” Loki grinned.

You were left stunned. You knew better than to get into an arrangement with the god of mischief. The thought of driving down to the local liquor store just to get your fix didn’t sound so bad anymore. It would be preferable to whatever plan Loki had for you, surely. All for a candy bar?! You’re crazy, but you’re not stupid.

Loki sensed you wavering. So he eased the bait slowly to you. He made an innocent little request. “Just ask nicely, pet, and it’s yours.” You raised an eyebrow at him.

“Please can I have it? It’s the last one.” You said as you laid on the sweet-innocent-pity-me look.

“You’re dangerous. Has anyone ever told you that?” Loki said chuckling.

“They realize it too late.” You said with a proud grin. Darling, you have no idea, he thought.

He picked up the chocolate. You thought he had changed his mind and was about to take a bite himself. Instead, he held it up to your mouth. You stared at it. Then you looked at Loki who had a patient and expectant look on his face. “I thought you wanted it,” he said.

“Are you feeding me?” you asked confused.

“I’ll let you have it, but I want something as equally sweet in return.” He said. You knew it was never as simple as asking sweetly whenever it came to Loki. Two can play at this game, you thought.

You parted your lips to let your tongue out. You slowly licked the tip of the bar then wrapped your mouth over a small section of the chocolate. You bit through the caramel and then the cookie. All the while staring him in the eyes. Loki was watching your mouth the whole time. Not once blinking. You let out a small moan of satisfaction as you pulled away. Wiping the string of caramel off your lips.

“Dangerous, indeed.” He said breathily as he devoured the remaining piece. Licking off the melted chocolate on his fingers. You gave each other a flirtatious smile.

“Do you know what I love most about Twix bars?” you asked him.

“What is it, pet?” He asked with a wide grin on his face.

“Is that there’s two in each package.” You grabbed the remaining one and held it in your mouth. You leaned in closer to his face, inviting him to you. Loki couldn’t help the heat that traveled up his spine. He enjoys seeing you so playful. He placed his hands on either side of your face, holding you still, as he tilted his head and bit off a piece of the candy from your lips.

As he chewed, you sucked in the remaining piece and enjoyed your sweet treat. Loki was blushing as he smiled and looked away, shaking his head.

The best reward you’ve ever gotten!

Happy Halloween!

from BittASweetZ

Ririko - Witch

“Hehe~ The cutest witch in Nakano has come to steal your heart! Soo, what do you think of my costume? Alice put her blood, sweat and tears into this, so you better not say anything bad! OH, before I forget, here, have a treat from the sweetest witch in Japan! ☆~”

You received a treat!

Chocolate Witch Hats. Pieces of chocolate that have been perfectly shaped into the hat of a witch. When you bite into them, they are filled with gooey, sweet caramel.

Shu - Demon

“ I’m not usually one for Halloween, but Ririko insisted that I dress up. At least the costume Alice made for me fits nicely. I’m not sure why she thought I’d be a good demon. Oh, Ririko said that people usually give out candy on Halloween, so here.”

You received a treat!

Devilish Licorice Tails. Grape flavored licorice with a triangle shaped piece of dark chocolate attached to the ends to make it look like the tail of a devil. The ends are even decorated with black ribbons.

Alice - Angel

“ It’s always so nice to see your work finished and worn, I hope Ririko and Shu enjoy their costumes! I had said that I would modify the concept of the angel costume and make it my own, unique costume, and I suppose I did a good job! I haven’t celebrated Halloween since I was in the states, so I’m very excited to celebrate it again! Here, have a treat that I made earlier today.”

You received a treat!

White Chocolate Halos. Pieces of white chocolate carved into the shape of a halo. There is edible gold glitter dusted onto the halos. The chocolate itself is of a very high quality, milky and not too sweet.

[ghostkidsblog]

Do you have any headcanons about the Shadow Boys when it comes to food? (I know that's random but I'm hungry so this came to mind)

Of course I don't mind, although I don't know which category of food your asking so I'll try to name at least 5-7 food types.

Griffin stagg

I see Griffin actually loving the flavor of mint chocolate chip ice cream or strawberry ice cream but it has to have small bits of strawberry in it or he refuses to eat it.

Spaghetti and meatballs, his mom made it for him once testing out a recipe and now forever loves them and asks his mom to make them for dinner at least 2 or 3 times a week. He would also help his mom make them whenever he can.

Animal cookies, his favorite would always be the lion shaped cookies, I mean like it's animal cookies, besides I think he used to play with them when he was little

Apple juice and cherry/ strawberry sodas are his all time favorite drinks, you can't tell me he doesn't enjoy cherry or strawberry soda. Also it's a funny moment when there is a fight going on and he is just there drinking his apple juice box in the background.

Billy Showalter

Billy gives me the type of person to like apple pie, along with any dessert that is apple flavored

Chocolate ice cream all the way. He loves and I mean loves Chocolate ice cream, he also enjoys sherbet ice cream

Hates root beer soda, he actually is a fan of coca cola, he likes the classic cola can.

Loves and I mean LOVES Caramel apples on a stick. His sister introduced him to the dessert ever since he was little and they went to the local fair, and has loved it ever sense then.

Vance Hopper

I haven't thought much about Vance so most of these if not all are ideas from a couple of friends on discord gc!

Vance would like to eat old fashioned recipes because his mother would make them for him growing up. ( It can be french,Italian, heck even Greek whatever you headcanon to be he will always love the old recipes)

He is a meat lover, meatloaf,hamburgers,hotdogs,etc. He will love it if it has meat in it.

Rocky road ice cream, I thought long and hard for this one, I genuinely think he would love the rocky road or any Flavor with huts in them.

Spicy chips, he would eat them without a problem. He has a high tolerance to spicy foods and he loves them to snack on.

Cookies, personally snickerdoodles or sugar cookies. He baked them with his mom and molded them with cookie cutter with whatever shapes they had. I like to think vance liking cinnamon treats sue me for headcanoning that.

Bruce Yamada

Mint chocolate chip & chocky chocolate ice cream, I had that idea in my head since freaking October. He would love those two flavors.

Chocolate desserts/treats he would love to have anything chocolate flavored.

Peaches and apples would be his favorite fruit in my book. He would share his peache or apple in slices with his friends/shadow boys.

Big league bubble gum, he also likes other flavors but I can't seem to find what type of flavors there are.

Robin Arellano

I don't care what anyone says Robin is a HUGE SWEET TOOTH KID, he definitely likes those bonbon cookies in the Mexican store

His mom's cooking is the best, whether that be empanadas, enchiladas, heck eve chicken soup, it's his favorite because his mom makes the best food

He strikes me as a sour gummy worm kid, like he would enjoy eating sour gummy worms while everyone else he knows dislike or hate the taste of them or how they look

Chicken tenders was his favorite school food, the only thing that looked safe to eat was chicken tenders and he would gladly give you a full on lecture/rant on how the chicken tenders are the best option (he also like dinosaur nuggets!)

Mangonada & cookies n cream is his favorite ice cream in my book

Finney Blake

M&Ms and 100 grand chocolate bar is his favorite candies (he definitely separates the cold tone M&Ms and warm tone M&Ms then eats the cold tones ones first)

Vanilla ice cream lover but doesn't mind eating other flavors (he would put sprinkles & other toppings on his ice cream you can't change my mind on that)

Grape and cherry soda lover (he definitely goes to the store only getting grape or cherry soda and nothing else)

Garlic bread is his favorite bread to snack on (his mom taught him how to make it when he was a bit young and still has the recipe on how to make it)

He strikes me on loving a chicken Alfredo and beef stroganoff dish (he was sleeping over at Robin's at the time and robin’s mom made these two dishes and Finney loved it so much he asked Robin's mom on how to make them afterwards)

Sorry for such a late response, I've been busy with both personal and school problems. Thank you for being so patient with me and I hope you enjoy this answer for your ask! :D

Make Akito Sohma X Female Reader (a fruits basket one-shot)

This is a story I wrote a long time ago, so it's not my current writing style, but I figured I'd post it here anyway because why not?

Story starts under the cut.

You knocked on the door to Akito’s room.

“Akito~San?” You asked sliding open the shōji door.

“Haven’t I told you to wait for my approval before opening my door?” they said bitterly. Akito didn't bother to look at you, he just kept lying down at his window.

“I apologize, I just-”

“What?” he snapped, whipping his head in your direction.

“It’s Valentine's day!”

“So what? You want me to allow you to leave me? You want to make sure that on this happy day, you stay as far away from me as possible, so that you may be with the ones you love most? So I can’t ruin this most joyous day?”

“What? No! That’s not it. Why would you think that? No, I have something for you,”

“Something… for me?”

You grinned at him. “Of course! I was only able to afford one thing… and it had to be homemade but… I hope you will enjoy it!”

You handed him a red square-like box with small pink hearts on it. Akito’s eyes widened.

‘Did Y/n really make chocolates… for… me?’ Akito thought to himself. He picked one up and examined it. It was shaped as 2 hearts, one overlapping the other.

“Sorry,” you scratched your neck nervously, “I guess I should have asked if you liked chocolates. Or, even ask Hiroti~San if you’re even allowed to have chocolates…”

Akito placed the chocolate back in its spot and looked up at you, eyes full of wonder.

“A..Akito?” you were getting a bit concerned. He reached out and grabbed your wrist to yank you down. “Yeek!”

“Sit.” He demanded. He stared at the chocolate box in anticipation. “You made the box… which one should I eat first?”

“Um, well, I personally like these ones,” you said, picking up the peanut butter caramel chocolate. Akito took It between his fingers. “The caramels really sticky so I'd brush hard afterward.”

Akito looked at the chocolate for a while longer, then brought it to his lips to take a bite. As his teeth sunk past the chocolate layer and into the peanut butter caramel, he closed his eyes and took in the flavour. As he chewed the delicious sweet, he hummed in delight. You stared at him, rubbing your hands (like the villains in cartoon movies) in anticipation. Finally, you asked him. “D-do you like it?”

He finished the rest of the candy and looked at you. He then did something you wouldn’t expect. He gave you a gentle smile, “I love it,”

You blushed. ‘Adorable…’

“Which should I taste next?”

“Mmmm, that one,” you pointed. He picked it up and bit off some of it. Then he turned to you. As he chewed his piece, he was staring at you with the other piece of chocolate held up. Then you got what he meant. “M-me?”

He nodded. You slightly reached for it but he pulled it back a little and shook his head. You were confused at first, but then he prodded it towards your mouth somewhat. You pointed to your mouth and raised your eyebrows- not completely knowing if you understood- but then he nodded; so you opened your mouth.

He gently placed the chocolate on your tongue. You closed your mouth and chewed. He smiled sweetly at you and you smiled back in return. When you finished you said:

“Happy Valentine’s day, Akito~san,”

     “Happy Valentine's day… F/n~san”

[caffeinated-beverage]

I really enjoyed your headcanons your headcanons are awesome 👌 👏 👍 😍 💖

Can I request a CanLiet(Hws Canada x Hws Lithuania)headcanon 🏕🎁📙

You came back for another ask 🥺 thank you so much!!

🏕: At times, Matthew will take Tolvydas on a little camping trip with him. They go stargazing, roast some sausages/fish/beetles (and try not to let Tolvydas' pet wolf steal them, because YOU KNOW he will if you give him half a chance!), make s'mores, tell scary stories around the campfire (Matthew watching Tolvydas get excited and invested in the story as he tells one of the scariest horror stories he can think up at the moment), go hiking, watch the sunset, play some games together, have picnics (once again, they gotta make sure Tolys' pet wolf DOES NOT steal any!), snuggle in a hammock, go fishing, etc.

For winter camping, they pick a nice campground with plenty of hills, good to go sledding. They also get to walk around and/or skate on a frozen lake, go hiking in the snow, have warm food/drinks next to the campfire, have hot cocoa, ice fishing, bonfires, go to a natural hotspring, and ride snowmobiles.

For spring camping, they have picnics, visit a local farmer's market, do some mini golf, bonfires, hike though the beautiful blossom-trees, fly some kites, paddleboat, etc.

For summer camping, they throw water balloons at each other (as the pet wolf barks at the water balloons flying back and forth), shoot each other with waterguns (the pet wolf keeps trying to get in the middle of it, and gets splashed with the waterguns), tye-dye some shirts together, go swimming in the lake (Tolys decides to start a splash fight with Matt in the lake), bonfires, go kayaking, try some waterskiing, etc.

And for fall camping, they go apple picking, visit local fall faires/festivals, bonfires, carve some pumpkins, go to a corn maze, a hayride, horseback riding, go on a date in a pumpkin patch, play football, go hiking through the trees with the colorful leaves, have some local apple cider, have some caramel apples, and go to drive-in horror movies together.

🎁: For Tolvydas, they often give Matthew homemade candies, cookies, chocolates, cakes, and any other homemade goodies. They also give scented candles, some trinkets, a handwritten card with some cute drawings and pressed leaves/flowers/an extra trinket or two, some knitted socks/clothes/coaster/scarf, a pretty rock they found, some of their foraged mushrooms/berries, "friend"ship bracelet, cute little clay sculpture they made, worm on a string, "friend"ship pins, magnets, etc

For Matthew, he often gives Tolys......... A book he figured they would like, something he's seen them eyeballing when walking through stores/shopping districts/malls, a soft and/or fluffy jacket (fluffy, like that hair of theirs that Matt loves!), flowers (which, they tend to eat.. But, hey, better than them just sitting on the counter and dying!), a handwritten card with some cute drawings, pressed flowers, and a few extra trinkets, a plushy, a fidget, etc.

📙: Well, Tolvydas really loves classic literature, like... Alice in Wonderland, and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

For Matthew, he reads a lot of manga, such as....... Mob Psycho, Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Attack on Titan, Naruto, Komi Can't Communicate, Demon Slayer, Spy x Family, Tokyo Mew Mew, Toilet-bound hanako kun, haikyu, one piece, etc.

How can you tell what the notes of a perfume are? Is that a skill that you have trained? Just wondering bc I can never smell more than one thing at a time!

It is a skill that gets easier the more stuff you smell! I wouldn’t say I have a great nose, but I can definitely pick up on more facets and textures now than when I first started.

Tbh I just smelled a lot of stuff, looked at the listed notes and reviews, and then looked for similarities until I got better at picking them out. I also started being able to better tell differences between takes on a similar scent like ‘vanilla.’

Of course, a good deal of this is just marketing. Even smells like ‘vanilla’ and ‘rose’ with a natural referent are made up of many individual aromachemicals. And you can take the natural plant and turn it into a distilled essence, but not all those aromachemicals are going to make it. And many notes, such as leather, are not extracted from the natural material. Furthermore, naturals like that are expensive. It’s common for perfumers to use synthesized aromachemicals that are combined to suggest scents. For example, ethyl maltol is a common aromachemical that smells of cotton candy, caramel, berries, jam, etc. The specific note that it evokes is determined by what other aromachemicals it’s paired with and also the marketing copy.

Edit: Some people cannot smell certain aromachemicals! It’s very common to be noseblind to at least one musk.

Perfumes can also vary in how realistically they aim to portray a scent. Some are very realistic, like you’re right there smelling a specific plant or object. Some others are more abstract. Most mainstream perfumes are on the abstract side and might give, say, the impression of florals and baked goods instead of Literally A Vine of Honeysuckle and A Fresh Baked Chocolate Cake.

If you want to start being able to pick out multiple notes in perfume, you might want to sample some that have notes with easy to reference natural materials. You could peel and smell an orange, sniff vanilla extract, and then smell an orange vanilla perfume. You should look for scents that are described as hyperrealistic or atmospheric if you do this.

Thanks for asking! If you’re really interested in perfume, there are certainly better guides out there, but I enjoyed rambling.
