So… funny church story that happened to me when I was little…
When I was in primary, they decided to have the kids come to the temple with our parents and teach us the importance of temples and all that. We didn’t go inside the actual temple itself, we just looked through the door.
Well, right before we walked from the church building to the temple building, they had an activity where we built our own temples out of toothpicks and mini marshmallows. Of course being a little kid, I made an igloo temple for Antarctica complete with an outdoor baptismal font for the penguins.
And then I devoured it.
Of course I got sick. As we were walking up the steps from the church parking lot to the temple, I turned to my primary teacher and was like “sister [cat], I think I’m going to puke…”
I was immediately rushed to the front of the line to puke in the bushes and it just so happened right at that moment, one of the adults took a picture of us from behind. It featured me and sister [cat] hurrying up the steps while I stumble behind trying not to puke.
A few weeks later they used that picture as part of their bulletin board right outside of the chapel to show every one of our trip. Out of context and from the position it was taken in, it looked like a group of primary children climbing up the steps to see the temple.
However! If it was taken facing us from the front, you could probably see just how sick I was and the anxiety on the poor sister’s face of not having me yak all over the beautiful temple grounds. Only me, her, and my parents know of the full context of that picture.
Moral of the story: don’t gorge yourself on a crap ton of mini marshmallows right before a temple trip.

Winter 08: Dateless - Pt. 2 (39/64)
When we got off the ice, we continued our hike. It wasn't very late yet, but it was getting dark anyway. That's what you get in the hills... We found a firepit, and I was impressed with how quickly Nathan got the fire going. We sat down and roasted some marshmallows.
As we continued, Nathan was VERY flirtatious... He kept on making rather suggestive remarks and while it had annoyed me earlier, I sort of liked it now, hehe. I mean, it doesn't happen all that often someone flirts with *me*.
We talked a bit more, but soon it really got too cold to stay out any longer, so we headed back.
I had a good time with Nathan. All in all. However, I don't think a guy who is this flirty is someone I can feel comfortable with. It was nice, it really was... However, and I could be wrong, but I think a guy who flirts this blatantly with me might flirt with everyone... Shame, because he was really cute...
Oh, I just realised I never asked him if he was related to Ethan. Oh well. I don't think so, they're as different as night and day.
Gameplay notes: Nathan displayed his irresistible trait immediately as he started winking and blowing kisses at Rachel from the moment they met. At first, she was disgusted every time, but as their relationship progressed and they talked more, she responded more positively to Nathan's flirts and charms. However, despite all the flirting (Nathan, not Rachel), neither one of them rolled a wish about the other person, and their relationship progressed slowly. They didn't even make it to "friends" and were still "acquaintances" by the time the date ended. I took this all to mean that, even though there had been flirts, it was all still quite casual. Attraction score: 7

Probably not canon anymore but it's funny how everyone imagines Peter's face to be scarred or heavily changed when in reality (or at least in 2012) he literally straight up doesn't have a face.
Like, THAT ISN'T just a covering for his face. That's his actual face
Could it be lighting? Maybe? But I don't think that's how lighting works. I don't think his face is naturally allergic to light.
I don't think this is canon anymore because The Seventh paints Peter's broken mask as this huge mystery and unless the mystery is about bringing this back, I don't think this is the surprise we might be getting.
BUT HEY this was all borderline if not 100% canon at one point in time

You know 100 percent that I would come over, sit at your table with a cup of coffee, sneaking my girl Starr cookies whoile discussing Ransom and Marshmallow with you. As well as Bucky and witch reader. 💜
I'd love to have you over for coffee, homemade cookies, tea and jam tarts. I would make it a whole ass thing lol Also fair warning, Starr is the least subtle when it comes to stealing cookies, she will openly ask and you will be moved to give them to her. Her nickname isn't 'Sad Eyes' for nothing. lolol
We would totally gab about Ransom x Marshmallow and Bucky x Witchy!!
We'd talk for HOURS about Held for Ransom because I just have so many ideas about the two of them.
But I'd have to tell you first how their initial story would end. I'd tell you all about their big fight that I have partially written for the end of Held For Ransom. I'd reveal to you Ransom's big secret about how he got her to keep her job, even though she torpedoed it in that meeting all to get Ransom a better deal for his book. We'd talk about how Ransom was in the wrong and that he only realizes it after Grayson comes and gives him a talking-to, maybe with his fists. Then we'd talk about how Ransom would beg Marshmallow to give him a chance, and how Ransom wants to be the kind of man she deserves to be with. Not the murderer the world sees him as. We'd coo over how Marshmallow doesn't quite forgive him, making him earn that respect and trust again with her. But how they end up together in the end.
Oh and Bucky and Witchy from All Good Things?
They have a second story, so far un-named, that I've been slowly chipping away at for the last year. We've talked about it a little here and there. But we'd be mad gabbing over coffee so, I'd tell you all about how Bucky, the ultimate romantic, wants to ask Witchy to marry him but the timing has never been right. But when they suddenly have to go back to her hometown of Friday Harbor, Bucky learns a lot of secrets that Witchy never told him or knew herself. We'd cry about how he gets separated from his body again and our Witchy girl can't see him because she's lost her ability to see ghosts. But Bucky gets help from unlikely places, like the female ghost that looks suspiciously like our Witchy girl. Either way, Alpine the ghost cat will be there to keep Bucky company as much as possible and how the heck is Bucky going to ask her to marry him when she can't even seen or hear him now?

Since you ask me what I want, I beg you for a tiger cub from the Berlin zoo or a locket, but what I would like best of all would be a fully-equipped lunatic asylum.
- Elisabeth’s Christmas list, 1871
Thanks for the locket. Unfortunately, you appear not to have given the other two things a moment’s consideration.
- Elisabeth to Franz Joseph, four days later
