a father is a hero, a daughter's first love, and her protector forever
For his first father's day with his little girl, Bryce spent the day at the beach with Malia (and Olivia), enjoying the warmth of the sun and the cool ocean breeze. Malia absolutely adored watching her daddy surf the waves as he enjoyed the perfect day out with his girls.
Bryce may have not had the best parental role models growing up, he still has his own baggage to deal with, but he promised himself that Malia would know only love and acceptance for all she is and all she will be.
This absolutely beautiful and idyllic moment was captured by the incredible ArtbyAinna (Instagram)

Masterlists: [Thomas Hunt x Alex Spencer] || [Ethan Ramsey x Ellie Shepherd] || [Love & Scotch Crossover]
Characters: Thomas Hunt (HWU), Ethan Ramsey (OpH)
Pairings (mentioned only): Thomas x Alex ; Ethan x Ellie
Book: HollywoodU + Open Heart
Word Count: ~650
Synopsis: Hunt and Ethan share a drink before Hunt's wedding.
Series Background:This takes place in my Hollywood U AU. Alex and Thomas are engaged. Ethan is an old friend whom the couple reconnected with. Alex is the biggest shipper of Ethan and Ellie(MC), and is thrilled Ethan finally took her advice to do something about his feelings. [Catch up on Love and Scotch]
Chapter Background: This takes place after dx: healing, as well as after Ellie has her PTSD better managed.
The famed Hollywood director stared at the amber liquid in his tumbler, watching as the light enhanced the brilliant color in the glass, causing a beautiful glow. His attention shifted to the esteemed doctor beside him as he slowly sipped his drink. "Thank you for being here, Ramsey. I appreciate you flying out again. It means a lot to have a drink with you before tomorrow."
"It's the least I can do. Your friendship has meant a lot, even more so recently, with all that has happened," Ethan replied thoughtfully. "I'm not sure we would have gotten through the attack without you and Alex there." His voice trailed away as a shiver racked his spine, reminding him of that dreadful day. He tried to brush the thought away. "Plus, I could never turn down an opportunity to enjoy some of your top-shelf scotch." He lifted his glass of the 60-year-old Macallan toward Hunt. "To your last night as a bachelor."
Hunt reciprocated the gesture, lifting his glass toward his friend's before taking another sip. The corner of his lips pulled into a subtle smile. The creases around his eyes told of the joy he felt inside. It was a look he couldn't seem to shake recently, no matter how much he tried.
It wasn't that he hadn't seen his friend happy before, but Ethan knew this was different. This was something deeper, something true, and something that would last a lifetime. He felt his own heart quicken in his chest at the notion. He tried to shake it away; could he really be considering it? He turned his focus back toward his friend, hoping to focus on his upcoming wedding instead. "Can't believe you're getting married tomorrow, Hunt." He shook his head, still in mild disbelief. "I never thought I'd see the day."
Hunt stifled a soft chuckle, bliss filling his every feature. "Nor did I." He let the moment linger as he reflected before continuing. "Isn't it something, how one person can change the entire direction of your life in a way you never anticipated, and yet, somehow, it becomes the best thing for which you could hope."
"Yeah," the doctor nodded thoughtfully in consideration. "I suppose it happens when you aren't looking and when you least expect it."
"It appears to be as such," Hunt paused, offering his friend a knowing look. "I trust you feel the same."
His brow rose a moment as he pondered the question. It was a question that had been on his mind a lot lately. Not that it hadn't been a flicker in his mind earlier, but the attack changed everything. "I suppose I must," he relented. "But that's for another day. This weekend is about you!"
"Unless it could be more than that," Hunt suggested.
"And take away from your day?" Ethan shook his head, hoping to put the conversation to an end.
"Alex would find it as more adding to the merriment." He brought the honeyed liquid to his lips, savoring the taste. "In fact, she might consider it the best wedding present."
Ethan contemplated his words. It wasn't the first time he had considered it. It was something he had thought increasingly about, but was she ready? Was he? Was now the right time? She'd been through so much. His thoughts drifted to the velvet ring box buried in his suitcase. He had no plans when he packed it, yet he felt the need to bring it. But what if she said no? He couldn't ruin Hunt's special day. He shook away the thought. It wasn't the right time. This was about Thomas and Alex, not them.
The pair relaxed comfortably, sinking further into the lounge chair, savoring the top-shelf liquor. They sat in a comfortable silence, relishing the warmth in their chest—a warmth that went deeper than the drink in their hands.
A/N: I wanted to write a longer fic but my brain is still working on getting over it's writer's block so this is all I've got, but I still am happy to have ANYTHING for this series since it's been on hiatus for so so long!
I hope you enjoyed this fun little look at Ethan and Hunt's friendship!

Geometric Bryce Lahela
Back to playing around with this "art" style while the writing muses are still quiet. I've wanted to play around with Bryce in this style for a while, but I put it off because I feel this style works best for fantasy characters that have more detailed armor or weapons. I decided @moominofthevalley's AAPI Heritage Month (@choicescommunityevents) was the perfect time to follow through with this art.
This piece has 201 layers/shapes. Bryce's hair was fun to play with though! All the different textures and colors! Bryce is such a pretty boy!
