Fluffbruary: February 6 - Trust
Tags: Fluff; A wild appearance of Robyn and Orpheus; Humans AU; College Professor AU; Parent Trap AU; Yes, Robyn and Orpheus are trying to get their dads together; Mediaeval History Professor Hob; Psychology Professor Dream; I’m using my very limited experience on this, be kind; Crack
Please ignore that I am three days late for this one and enjoy Robyn and Orpheus trying to make their dads date. Also, this is for @firemandeanbuck just so you can see that I still write fluff, it just takes longer than the angst.
"Walk, walk, walk, old man," Robyn says behind Hob, pushing him out of the movie theatre with all the force he had. He has been doing this since he was a kid, pushing or pulling Hob with all the force he had in his little, puny arms.
Doesn't mean he is letting his son win any time soon anyway.
"Hey, hey, now, young man, who do you think you are talking with?" Hob says, leaning back against him and bracketing his feet.
"Would you trust me this once, Dad? We are going to lose the freaking cab!" Robyn has turned around, his shoulder replacing his hands as he tries to make him move. "Old man, move!" With all his force, Robyn pushes him and Hob starts to laugh, loud and clear as he stumbles ahead.
The people getting out of the theatre look at them out the side eyes, but Hob doesn't care. His boy is rolling his eyes at him, the smile on his face too much like Eleanor's and his heart is full. Robyn has grown up so much since her death, changed so much and it's so good to see him smiling like this, open and wide, happy.
"I love you, Robyn, you are my pride and joy," he says, his hand coming up to Robyn's cheek.
"Thank you, Dad," he says, voice soft and gentle and Hob knows he knows it's true.
Ever since Eleanor's death, Hob did everything he could, possible and impossible, to make sure Robyn knew he was loved. All the time he could find, he passed with him. School meetings, doctor appointments, all the hobbies.
He tried to do everything he could for his little boy, letting the grief appear only when he was alone. Their kitchen had hidden his tears one too many times until he learned how to live with the hole in chest. Robin, thankfully, turned well, maybe a little bit too much like him but Hob thinks Eleanor would have liked that.
Robyn is in college now, English classics like his mother. He is living at the dormitory, despite their house being only three hours away and Hob going almost every day there because of his classes. Almost every day they see each other at lunch, just to talk or sit together.
"This address, please," Robyn says to the driver, showing the address on his phone the moment they got into the cab.
"Why don't you say the address, boy? Where are you taking me?" Hob says, leaning against the door and lifting an eyebrow.
"It's a surprise, Dad," Robyn says, sitting back down and rolling his eyes at him. Grey eyes stare back at him, one more thing he inherited from his mother, and Hob makes a face at him, pulling his upper lip up and scrounging his nose. A laugh bursts out of both of them when Robyn does the same face, crossing his eyes and shaking his head to the sides.
People tend to say, when they see both of them together, that they do not look like father-son, but rather two friends. Not only because Robyn looks more like Eleanor than like him, but because they apparently joke too much together to truly be father and son. Hob particularly finds that bullshit, it's not because they joke together that there isn't respect between them.
The only one to understand that has been Robyn's roommate's father, Morpheus. Like him, he is a teacher at the college the boys study, one of the big names of the Psychology department. The first time they met was an accident. Robin and him were lunching together when he saw his roommate from far away and called him to sit with them. Morpheus appeared along with him.
After that, there were few occasions when they found each other again. Once when Hob was running from one lecture to another and found the man in the hallway, looking utterly lost, he had to stop to help him. Needless to say that he was late for his second lecture. There was another time where they found each other, but none of them were lost this time.
He liked Morpheus. For the few times they talked, he seemed like a decent guy who loved his son more than anything in this world. More than that, the man was beautiful as fuck, the type to inspire tells and stories about his beauty and eyes.
"How is Auntie Pru?" Robyn says beside him, taking him out of his thoughts.
"Prudence is alright, I think. Didn't see her much this week," Hob shrugs, turning to him. "And you? What have you and Orpheus been up to?"
"Nothing much, studying, planning, plotting. Why didn't you see Auntie Pru these last days? She found a boyfriend?" He asks, both eyebrows up and staring at him with shining eyes.
"That I know of, no, I was just too busy with classes," and thinking about it now, most of his week was spent either in class or talking with Morpheus. "Why do you ask?"
"Oh, look we are here!"
Behind him, the facade of one of the most expensive restaurants in London shines right into Hob's face. There are couples coming in and out, families standing at the side while they wait for the valet to bring their car. All of them are wearing designer clothes, some of which he is sure would cost a year of his salary.
This is not a place they usually go and certainly not one he inured Robyn to frequent. So, why the fuck are they here?
"Err, Robyn? What are we doing here?" He asks as his son climbs out of the car and pays the driver, waving goodbye to him.
"C'mon, Dad, it's a surprise! Trust me on this one!" Robyn says and waves for him to get out of the car.
"Everytime you say that, I get more and more afraid of what you are doing," he is shaking his head, trying to decipher what the hell is his son doing when he hears a voice that gives him goosebumps down his spine.
"Afraid of your own son, Professor Gadling?"
"Of his machinations," he says, looking up to see Morpheus standing between Orpheus and Robyn. His hair is as wild as ever, but his clothes seem more soft and casual than Hob has ever seen him using before.
Orpheus is smiling beside him, waving to him, and Hob feels his eyebrows furrow. There is something wrong here, but he can't point out exactly what it is. He just knows there is something wrong.
"What a coincidence, right, Dad?" Robyn says and Hob squints his eyes at him.
"Yeah, what a coincidence..." he says through his teeth and turns to Morpheus. "What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same thing," Morpheus retorts, a smirk on his face, as he helps him out of the car.
"Oh, then the two of them can have dinner with us! We just arrived," Orpheus says, hands deep on his pocket, and turns to Morpheus with a smile on his face. By the look on Morpheus' face, he is finding this just as strange as Hob.
"If you two are hungry, we wouldn't mind," He says slowly, still looking at him.
"Amazing!" Robyn says and then promptly wraps his arm around Orpheus and turns to the restaurant. They watch as the two of them walk in the restaurant talking with the woman at the front - God, Hob doesn't even know what he should call her - and point to them, saying some thing more and nodding before finally disappearing inside.
"What do you think they are doing?" Hob asks, still watching the restaurant in front of them warily.
"I do not know, but it does seem like they are trying hard to make us spend some time together,"
"Should we tell them that we are seeing each other?" Morpheus shrugs by his side before shaking his head.
"No, let's see how far they can go with this." And after a beat, he adds. "Do you want to have dinner with me?"
"Oh yes!" Hob nods and then follows him up to the restaurant.
Let the kids figure out what they want. They have their own plans.

Saw a neat Fourcheanult post about the ways in which he sucks but tragically I cannot reblog without at least SOME analysis on how the loss of Louisoix would impact his choices and views on his children's actions
#im telling you like#your dad might even KNOW the end is coming one day but he goes to help Eorzea because it's the right thing to do#and you don't agree that it's a priority (the world will end!!) but your father is smart and he's skilled and you say goodbye when he leaves#and then he dies. he dies and no one knows what happened he is simply gone in a flash. his plan to save eorzea?#it worked in that Eorzea exists but the land is DEVESTATED and will never be the same and he IS GONE#and YES when your kids want to visit the land he saved you let them go (but they better write their mother)#and they are doing amazing things but they are your BABIES and my god! what is happening to them???#do you think he knew about Shadowbringers? do you think he knew his children were in a coma IN YOUR CARE?#and then he tries to disown his kids because maybe this will keep them from trying to save the world#and keep them from throwing their lives away#because all he wants is for them to live. even if they hate him#even if they never look at him again. they'll be alive.

“She’s tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me”😤😤😤
(Regency AU with Eloise and Sebastian inspired by my slow trek through Bridgerton these days & @bassicallymaestra ‘s AMAZING regency inspired art😮💨😇🙏)
#I just have a love of big regency dresses what can I say😔🙏#if you haven’t seen them yet this is a study of the GORGEOUS P&P illustrations from the 1890s by Charles Brock#they are all just so spectacular & I stare at them alllllllllll the time wishing I had an ounce of his talent🙏🙏🙏#so I do these studies to pretend even though I change some things😅😅 bc these studies is the best way to improve imo🙏#but I remembered halfway through why I rage quit trying to draw with my fountain pen a year ago😂😂😂#that thing is amazing for writing and I love it like a child#but drawing?! tbh I should have used my drawing ink pen but whatever#I woke up with a hankering to do some crosshatching (which I hate) in an attempt to get over myself#also!!!!!! when Mr Darcy says something like that it’s no wonder Elizabeth jumps at the bit to believe every awful thing she hears about him#it’s like Mr wickham’s dumb stories that nobody else in their right mind would believe#are speaking right to her soul. like OF COURSE that asshole from the assembly would do all of those things😤😤#he called me ugly so OF COURSE he would deny mr wickham his living😤😤#(I don’t blame her I would do the same🤝🤝)#ALSO why tf did he even say that when he’s clearly smitten from the beginning#I’m sure if he knew that she heard him he would simply perish from mortification#well thst is my p&p - inking horror - inspiration rant of the day🙏🙏#(I read p&p at least once a year & it is the only fanfic I really read😅😅😅)#hogwarts legacy#hogwarts legacy fanart#hphl#sebastian sallow#hogwarts legacy mc#hogwarts legacy oc#eloise#eloise babbit#regency au

can I be rlly honest rn?
I think the name Hiccup fits more for book Hiccup than the movie Hiccup.
Not that it doesnt fit at all, but just............ykow
#httyd books#httyd#how to train your dragon#hiccup horrendous haddock#book hiccup#ykow like#bookie hiccup was a literal accident#like he even says he only exists because of alvin's action#liiiike he's a 'hiccup' in the destiny. a sudden change in history.#IT SIMPLY AMAZING AND TBH INSANE TOO#I feel that wasnt very explored on movie#he's hiccup bc he's a runt (?) basically#I like the meaning the book gives to it#cressida you are amazing#thank uou

You know even if L and Light were both extremely heterosexual men, I still don't get how either one of them wouldn't find it alarmingly sexy that the other one was secretly trying THAT hard to constantly impress them and read their mind and personally entertain them and trip them specifically and ONLY them up
#like im sorry but#cant get much more romantic than that?#would somebody try that hard simply because they wanted to be your bro or because they did not care for you in any personal way at all?#no#idk why im making so many posts these days btw#i just keep getting hit with lawlight thoughts about the lawlight thots#like the steps of planning light went through to make the entire yotsuba arc happen??#this is why he is the gone girl / amazing amy of the pair#it's like ok that's definitely scary and very insane of you but also maybe kinda hot hahahaha#and this is exactly what Alessandro Juliani meant when he said he thinks they have a real affinity for each other im sure#like he's probably a straight dude but even he was like dang they r in love#light yagami#l lawliet#lawlight#p

So it turns out the turn fandom has its very own cryptid:
the george washington stans
#and they're a force to be reckoned with!#who are they?#where are they coming from?#why won't they campaign?#why isn't there any propaganda?#have they always been here?#has washington been the most lusted after turn hottie all along but simply no one had really talked about it?#I'm not amazed because of washington himself like ian kahn's a very attractive man#it's unexpected because no one's talked about finding him hot!#or at least not that many people!#who are you??

Crack AU where Ty Lee escapes Boiling Rock and retreats into the Earth Kingdom instead of joining the Kyoshi Warriors, and is completely off the grid, so that when she comes back to the Fire Nation and sees Azula out and about she thinks she’s gotten better and tries to reconnect with her. Shenanigans ensues.
#ty lee: omg azula how are you? I’m glad you spent time bettering yourself enough that they let you out :)#*Azula who had just been running around committing war crime*: yes definitely#this AU came about simply because I adore the trope of a war criminal having a loving spouse#who just loves them and has no clue their beloved is running around committing crimes that 100% go against the Geneva Convention#ty lee meeting up with mai: isn’t it amazing that azula redeemed herself?#mai who was just listening to zuko talking about the latest the latest of Azula’s misdemeanors: I beg your pardon. What?#ty lee#azula#tyzula#mai#zuko#atla#avatar the last airbender

so anyway i saw the little mermaid and it was absolutely incredible. in my opinion it blew the original out of the water AND was superior to all of the other disney live actions
#halle has such an angelic voice (both singing and talking) and is simply stunning#she nailed the disney princess voice#and eric was so cute and charming!!#my favorite thing was how the movie really let them bond and convinced you there was real connection rather than instalove#the progression was amazing. the end was slightly rushed but the build up to it was rewarding enough that that’s okay#and the new music was so good!!#the little mermaid#mine#the way eric was a collector like her was just 🥺🥺#AND GRIMSBY WAS AN ICON?? i loved the little side plot about eric’s adoption. he was a very convincing prince with a good heart

i don’t know why you’re collecting recipes but here’s one of mine
Really good brownies I came up with at 1 am
Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a METAL square or rectangle baking sheet with parchment paper. I used my 12x7 metal sheet, but anything of a similar size would work.
In a bowl, add 250g of granulated sugar and one stick of butter, melted. Mix, then let cool so you don't scramble your eggs. Add 2 large eggs plus two eggs yolks, vanilla extract, and mix. Then add 75g unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1/3 cup butter (or oil)
And 60-70g of whatever flour you want, I used rice. I would say a lighter flour for better texture, like rice, a pinch of salt if using unsalted butter, pinch of baking soda, tablespoon of corn starch. Corn starch is important. Stir in however much chocolate chips you want. The only acceptable variety is semisweet.
Spread batter evenly into pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, it took me 25 but a smaller pan would take longer, check it however you wish. Wait until completely cool to cut or you will end up with brownie dust. Brownie dust, while delicious, is not what you came here for.
AW HELL YES. im collecting them to write out in the new little recipe book i got because i love stuff i can hold in my hands and protect from losing online. you wouldnt download a recipe …. (to get away from a million ads)
THAT BEING SAID what can i put for whose recipe it is? :]
#i can put anon i simply dont mind but if you want something else when i write it out i will do that#these sound amazing thank youuuu#kora.txt#asks#anons
