:: :: ::

Today is the day. 12 months ago your life changed for the better. One year ago precisely, you and Peter Maximoff went on your first of many wonderfully weird dates. You were whisked away by the speedster and your heart was his since then. 

As a boyfriend, Peter is not a traditional suit and red roses kind of guy. He preffers metallic jackets and odd little gifts such as key rings and candy wrappers with stupid little love notes written on them. But speaking of roses, you were thankful he hasn’t resorted to gifting you them, or any sort of flower for that matter.

The issue of the matter is you are deadly allergic all types of flowers so although the gesture would be romantic, it wasn’t your thing. 

 :: :: ::

As it is a Saturday, you wake up in your dormitory at “Charles Xavier’s School For Gifted Youngsters” at 11:30 AM. Lazily, you toss your legs over the edge of your bed and stumble over to your desk. Not knowing what day it is, you glance at the calendar and to your surprise there was a heart framing the day.  “Oh fucking…” You start as you are all of a sudden completely awake. You rush over to the mirror and are shocked at the disaster standing before you. The best way to describe it was too much hair, 2 day old makeup that had been spread all around your face and an indescribable odor that you couldn’t figure out where it was coming from.

This is more than just a one woman job. Being a telepath, like your father, Charles Xavier, you reach into Jubalee’s mind and inform her of the extremely important emergency and within minutes she arrives at your door with all the neccessarry equipment to make you look semi presentable.

You open your door  at the knock and Jubes’ expression is priceless.”Jesus Christ (y/n), we’ve got quite a lot of work to do.” Groaning, you open the door more to let her in and she flops onto your bed. 

“Okay, hop in the shower and fix that animal on your head while I raid through your closet searching for anything that isn’t a black t-shirt and ripped jeans.”

“UUUUGH” you complain before hopping in the shower.

:: :: :: 

Two hours later I look semi presentable in some nice jeans and a red top. I put my hair up but decided to go with no makeup, much to Jubalee’s disapproval. Finally i’m out the dorm door and head straight for my father’s office. 

I knock on the door and here a “Come in!” from the inside. I enter the room to see my father at his desk with ungraded papers spread throughout the whole office space.

“You look lovely, (y/n). What’s the occasion?” He asks you, only glancing up for a short while before returning to grading.

“Well, today marks the one year anniversary of Peter and I’s relationship.” You respond quickly. This gained his attention for sure. He sets down the papers and makes his way to the other side of his desk, leaning against it.

“Congratulations. I’m glad you two have lasted this long but does Erik know of the relationship yet?” He asks you, a look of concern spreading across his features.

“I don’t believe so.” You respond honestly. “But we have all the time in the world to tell him” 

“Alright, well you know the rules. I understand that it is your anniversary and things can get…romantic, please be careful and don’t do anything that would have disappointed your mother.” Charles orders.

Groaning, you counter “I won’t, don’t worry. You’re a telepath anyways, it’s not like I can hide anything.” Charles grins at this but informs his daughter that he will still need to have a conversation with Peter before anything happens tonight. 

:: :: :: It’s 7PM and instead of being with his girlfriend on their anniversary, Peter is instead getting lectured by his girlfriends father who is going extremely into detail.

“Charles!” Peter finally interrupts the rambling man. “You, of all people, know that I love and care for your daughter very much and I wouldn’t do anything to harm her or try something without her consent.” He recites.

“Good.” Charles approves before asking. “So, what’s on the agenda for tonight?”  This gets Peter excited as he was quite proud of himself. “Well, Professor, I’m not exactly the romantic sort of guy, but today I decided to step out of my comfort zone and give her flowers.” He smiles at himself.

“Oh, shit.” Charles mutters to himself, knowing of his daughters extreme allergy.

Not hearing Charles muttering peter continues. “I thought since we have been together for 365 day, why not get her 365 flowers! And as her favorite color is (y/f/n), I bought them all that color! Good, right?” Peter asks the concerned father.

Upon noticing the scared look on the professors face, peter stumbles out “um, is it, uh, n-not…good?” He asks, his previously confident voice shrinking.

Charles finally sputters out “(y/n) is deadly allergic to flowers.”

“Oh, shit.”

:: :: ::

It was 7:15 and you were headed back to your dormitory on orders of a note you found from Peter. Getting excited, you rush up to your door and stand in front of it for a little, preparing for whatever romantic gesture Peter has conjured up in his brilliantly twisted mind.

Slowly, you reach for the doorknob and grip onto it tight. The brass starts to spin but just as you were about to push forward, opening the door, a streak of silver crashes into you, knocking you onto your ass.

“Maximum what the fuck?! I got your note!” You half-yell, waving it in his face. 

“Language!” Charles scolds, coming out of nowhere.

“Where did you come from?” You ask, getting more and more confused by the second. 

You look at Peter who is just staring intently at the closed door. “So hey, I just found out you were allergic to flowers…” He trails off. Your dad pulls you further away from the door as Peter opens it, revealing hundreds of (y/f/c) flowers beautifully placed throughout every inch of the room.

You gasp, speechless from the gesture. “Peter…” Is the most you can mutter out.

“Yes I know, I’m really sorry, (y/n). I should have known about the allergy and maybe I should have asked you, I get that  you wanted romance an-” Peter’s ramblings were cut short when you stated.

“What are you talking about?I love it! Even though I have an allergy, doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate how lovely all of this is.” You run up to him and kiss him on the cheek, knowing your father was watching.

“Thank you.”

:: :: ::

There are still cleaners in your room after mid-night, disinfecting everything the flowers touched, hopefully leaving your room a nice, safe environment to sleep in again.

You and Peter were sprawled out on now of the couches in the lobby of the school. Your head resting on his shoulder, growing more tired each minute, wanting the cleaners to be done so you can rest up. 

As if Peter read your mind, he whispers into your hair “You know babe, we can just go to sleep in my room…” You could practically hear the smirk in his voice.

“JUST SLEEPING!” you hear you’re telepathic father yell from a different room.

Laughing, the two of you slowly get up and make your way to Peter’s dormitory.  You both flop down onto his unmade bed and snuggle close. “Happy anniversary, Princess.” He whispers to you.

“Happy anniversary, Princess.” you repeat back to him, causing both of you to chuckle. 

“I’ll only be a Princess…” Peter starts. “If i’m you’re princess.” 

Both of you start uncontrollably laughing. “Deal.” You finally squeak out, before falling into a pit of non-stop laughter.

okay so, today was...mixed, and by that I mean I felt crappy for most of the day but legends was really great and I had a great time watching it and fangirling about it with Jess. So, woke up a few minutes before my alarm went off, got up and got ready, then went to class. Civil rights was fine, I was glad I didn’t get cold called because I didn’t do the reading and I mean I read the case briefs but I would’ve probably looked bad if I was called on. However my stomach started bugging me partially through class and I’m gonna do my best to keep this all PG but I had to go to the bathroom and it was like OH HEY MORE BLOOD and also starting your period so ALL THE BLOOD?? and I felt not great after that lol, plus I’m supposed to be drinking a ton of water now so I always have to pee and I had to leave class twice to use the bathroom which I felt awkward about, lol. but at the end of class our prof gave us back our graded midterm assignments, which are actually counting for a grade (a lot of profs will do ungraded tests so you can get an idea of where you stand) and our prof was like “yeah I graded them out of 8 so if you got all the main points you got a 6 and if you really came up with something good that I hadn’t thought of you got a 7, I don’t think anyone actually got an 8″ and I totally had that minute of feeling unsure about myself (thanks shitting legal drafting grades for that) and that I was gonna get a subpar grade but then I got my paper and it had a giant 7 on top of it, and that made me feel a bit better, so that was reassuring that I suddenly didn’t start sucking at writing. I went to the PAD office which was thankfully abandoned as I ventured through different operators and offices in a quest to get to the surgeon’s office and be like HEY AM I DYING? ALSO I’M IN ANOTHER STATE NOW? But eventually got to talk to my surgeon (I mean he didn’t actually do surgery on me but still) and he was like nah it’s all good you’re probably fine and just still recovering, so that was reassuring at least. I did some reading for remedies because why the fuck not (and by some I mean one case) then went across the street to the salad place because my mom is all like “you should be eating a salad everyday now” because vegetables and fiber and blah blah blah. I don’t generally eat salads because I can’t have a lot of salad dressings, and dressing-less salads are just sad, but I got a chicken caesar salad from this place and it was actually quite good, so that’s good to know. At 4 my school was hosting another town hall meeting about “diversity” stemming from the incident (I think I told you guys about this) where a professor used the n word in class and I had missed the first few ones so I wanted to make it to this one, there was some confusion about where it was but I got there in plenty of time, not as many students were there as I thought would be, I guess the time was inconvenient for people who had just left afternoon classes or where coming in for night classes but I was staying through so it was perfect for me. I sat with my friend who’s the head of the student bar association, and I think maybe 2 or 3 other 3L’s were in attendance, which like, I understand feeling like you have one foot out the door you’re graduating in two months and just don’t really care, but I left my undergrad on terms where I felt like the school it had become was not a school I would’ve applied to, and I didn't want that to be the case with law school as well. it was very interesting, they talked about a lot of different initiatives they were working on to help meet their diversity goals (they have a 30% diverse student goal but the last few years it’s been falling below that) and I mean like, my school is super liberal, which is something I’ve personally enjoyed after previously only attended super conservative schools who were much less willing to listen to students on issues like this where there was a student uproar (and how incredibly frustrating that was in undergrad and is one of the main reasons I’ve essentially told them to fuck off in terms of an alumni activity), so I appreciate them being proactive on this and like, our dean isn’t some old white guy, it’s this very kind hispanic woman so it’s not quite an old boys club, but the students all had very good points and definitely pushed back which I thought was definitely warranted. it was definitely appreciated that one of the profs was like “hey just so you guys all know the vast majority of the staff is completely with you and totally appalled at this situation” which was comforting to hear because the administration has taken the position that they can’t take a side when there’s an ongoing investigation into a tenured professor (also like can we fuck the idea of tenure in academic institutions? I feel like it really is not helpful in actually improving schools and responding to stuff like this) and we talked about how profs get appointed to first year classes and how apparently some of them this year have been rather flippant about stating that they really do not want to be teaching these classes, which of course is not very encouraging for a student to hear. So while I very much do not really have a horse in this race because I’m graduating in two months, I’m glad to see the administration is definitely trying to do better on these issues. I had to leave the town hall at 5:30 and run up to class, so to remedies I went. I watched the legends sneak peek in the two seconds between those two places and was freaking out about it, and of course then freaking out about the episode during all the class. I wouldn’t be as frustrated about having class during legends if I felt like I was actually learning anything in class but I feel like I’m very much not?? Like I’m really not paying attention and I honestly do not doubt at this point that I can cram all the info during finals and get an A because I know that I can do this. So we got let out at 8, I was way too amped to wait to watch the legends episode so I just ubered home and started watching the episode (with Jess of course who came over) and just like. man. what a fucking episode that was. the freaking bedroom scene it started with is like, exactly what we all had been hoping for and I’ve seen like 6 people say something exactly like that before this episode so that was great and it was SO SOFT and domestic and GIRLFRIENDS and got I love it so fucking much???? it was perfect. even Sara telling Ava about Constantine was done like, so nice and healthy and it was great and speaking of Constantine I didn’t detail above my reaction to the news coming out that he’s gonna be a series regular in season four and like.....holy shit???????? Like this is EXACTLY what I had been dreaming of but I never thought it was actually going to happen, like ever, so this was sooooooooo awesome to hear and I am totally amped about it, and anyone who’s trying to start a ship war over it is gonna get shanked because that’s not how we do things in this fandom. Anyway, back to the episode, so many good moments, the stuff with canary suited death sara (can I just say I appreciate that the canary suit followed her to the underworld, mask and all?) and all of that going down, and the other team interaction stuff was really great, a lot of awesome Amaya and Zari moments (I ship it so hard yo) and the scene with Zari and her brother fucking tore me to pieces, I was legit on the verge of tears man they were just really going for the heartstrings here. and the Wally and Jesse stuff too like Wally!! my boy!! Do you not know how amazing you are and how you deserve the world??????? Definitely need to revisit that at some point. The Nate grandpa scene also just trashed me because it was perfect and heartbreaking in all the right ways. I did very much also like how Mick got to wield the fire totem at the end because let’s be honest, firekinesis was always the ultimate goal for Mick Rory so this is really his dream. The inside the Mallus dimension stuff was super good too, Nora being creepy but great as always, and the league of assassins flashback was rough man, but of course at the end Sara being like no, I choose a life with Ava and with my team was just like FUCK YEAH YOU GO SARA YOU GOT THIS and god I love Sara Lance so much???? And of course while all of this is going on there’s the Ava and Gary getting Constantine plot which was FUCKING HYSTERICAL, Ava and Constantine’s interactions were fucking golden, both of them acted that absolutely perfectly, especially Ava only wanting to touch Constantine with one finger and just being so extra and clearly protective of Sara (the “she’s not damaged” line fucking broke me) and FUCKING CONSTANTINE AND GAY OKAY so two weeks ago Jess and I met Matt Ryan at a con in Ohio and he told us a super secret plot spoiler we couldn't tell anybody and IT WAS CONSTANTINE AND GARY, we knew about it for two weeks now and were keeping it as secret and just GAHHHH it’s basically the best thing ever and I am 100% for the two of them being boyfriends in season 4 now that we know Constantine is sticking around. And of course they save the day and bring Sara back and everyone is yay and happy EXCEPT the writers couldn’t let us just have happiness and like two episodes of Avalance, they had to go break them up at the end and like, I’m sad and disappointed it happened but ultimately not worried about their relationship because that’s clearly not it, people don’t write relationships like that on tv shows, it’s obvious there’s more coming for them and that was definitely not the end, and we know next episode is gonna be focusing on Ava and Sara going to find her so I think we will get resolution on that front sooner rather than later. So yeah, it was a lot for sure, but I was overall pleased and thought it was a fantastic episode, even if my girls (temporarily) broke up in the end because it’s very obvious it is temporary and this is the happiest Sara has ever been and !!! yeah it’s not ending there lol. The preview for next week’s episode was.......odd to say the least, since they released the promo photos the robot!Ava and clone!Ava theories have been abounding, but like, a city full of Ava’s? A world full of Ava’s?? Idk about that, so we’ll have to see where they’re going with that, but being that everything this season has been really solid I do trust them to do this well. After the episode we watched an episodes of Mistresses to cool off (lol, really) and then Jess went home and I started getting ready for bed and here we are. After talking to the surgeon today I was able to get an appointment with my gastro doctor tomorrow afternoon, so I’ll be doing that instead of my shift at the DV courthouse (boo, but needed) and BOY is he in for a surprise because my last visit was like “acid reflux!” and now he’s gonna be like dafuq??? yeah, me too buddy, lol. so I’ll do that and then go to Target and get groceries then come home and make food and watch flash and black lightning with Jess and hopefully it will be a good day. This post is already super long thanks to all the fangirling I did above, so I will end it here and talk to you all tomorrow. Goodnight friends. Hope you had a positive Monday.
