#~syrup’s thoughts

[ambrosialsyrup]

I can post it faster if it’s without the writing part (I’ll release the writing parts of each one as separate posts made respectively for the designated food souls).

You all might need to wait another month for the release of Part 2 with the writing part. I just feel bad for making everyone wait this long without an update but I promise I’ll definitely get it out! Writer’s block just sucks.

I see a lot of hucow posts where dumbing down a girl/bimbofying her goes hand in hand with making a girl a hucow. And this is a perfectly fine practice, don't get me wrong ditzy little milk makers are amazing!

But I find more often than not that my preference tends to lean towards confident, intelligent cows. Girls who are scientists and smarties, lovely ladies that have no business walking around in professional settings with leaky tits. Women that, for as smart as they are, can't help but listen to their impulsive, horny thoughts when their chest is full.

So yeah~ Your gorgeous, dumb heifer who forgot how to do her physics homework after you got her to take those supplements is great and all. But I'm gonna stick with the chemist cow who knows how unprofessional and embarrassing it is to get her tits drained by a coworker during her 15 minute break, but can't help herself from doing it anyway.

I'm sorry PLEASE elaborate or cap/link the story about you wearing the nightmare perfume to..... work? as a lawyer? Court work? Bad smell court work??? Rook,

i did post the story here at some point but sure i'll retell it with more context. anyone who doesn't know, im a lawyer and my favourite character is goro akechi from persona 5 whose face i have been wearing since 2017. ok we proceed

the perfume is followed by kerosene, which is slightly infamous. i encountered it when i was first trying to find a decent gourmand fragrance which actually smells like coffee. (i still haven't found a good one so if anyone has any recs...) that tumblr post about its fragrantica reviews shows off some of the funnier ones, but the actual fragrantica page shows the response is a bit more complicated. followed is a very divisive fragrance. those who love it absolutely adore it. everyone else thinks it's a curse on all of humanity forever. i read those reviews and instantly decided i had to try it so i bought a sample.

the thing that makes followed by kerosene most controversial is that it has really unreasonably strong staying power. the other notable thing about followed is that despite being advertised as a coffee and vanilla forward fragrance, it actually has an INCREDIBLY strong smell of maple syrup. perfume depends really heavily on the individual, since the same perfume will act differently on different people's skin, which is why some people insist this smells of a lovely pleasant coffee and, while lasting, generally fades okay, and other people insist the maple syrup demons live in their vents to this day. i actually adore followed. i'm pretty sensitive to strong fragrances and i don't love sweet things, so i was really apprehensive, but i ended up really liking it? it IS strong, but i use a very tiny little amount and to me it smells of a pleasantly burnt caramelised maple followed (hehe) by a nice jaunty undertone of espresso. everyone i've asked irl also thought it was very pleasant.

i was wearing followed to work and needed to run to court for boring BAU reasons. i was NOT there for a hearing. this did not happen while phoenix wrighting my way through actual fucking advocacy. just making this extremely clear for my own mental health. anyway i was in court wearing my little perfume having a normal day talking to a court officer about documents or whatever and they stopped dead mid-conversation and went, "do you smell pancakes?"

anyway that's why i don't wear the fragrance anymore. not because it's a nightmare perfume from hell. just because i absolutely cannot repeat the experience of standing inside a fucking courthouse having to politely giggle and fib my way through an interaction with a completely innocent court officer who had no idea the amount of psychic damage they'd just dealt me by asking me so politely with their real human voice if i smelled sweet pancakes while i stood there knowing and dreading the true reality, which was that the pancakes, after all this time, was me

Les Mis characters as pasta types/shapes

Disclaimer: Not Italian, not a chef, just a girl who's procrastinating way too hard on her assignments right now.

One can also blame @combeferres-mothematics for starting this train of thought...

Myriel: Cappelletti, really only bc they look like little bishop hats to me.

Valjean: Spaghetti. A classic, everyman pasta to suit his average, everyman name/persona.

Fantine: Mafaldine, also known as Riccia. Looks like an unfurled ribbon, named after Princess Mafalda. Reminds me of Fantine's curly golden hair (Riccia, too, means curly!)

Cosette: Orecchiette. The "little ears" pasta, to match her nickname "little thing".

Javert: Penne lisce. Commonly disliked because its been too smoothed out and can't hold onto sauces as such. Would be much better if it still retained its rough edges like the penne rigate. (Penne is one of my favourite pastas so don't kill me Javert lovers)

Marius: Elbow Macaroni. A little goofy, but like Valjean, its very much a classic, everyman pasta. Suits his self/reader-insert persona.

Enjolras: Angel hair. Sorry this was too easy to not grab at it.

Grantaire: Lasagna, solely because he's very Garfield-core to me

Bonus:

All of Les Amis de l'ABC: Alphabet Spaghetti. They're friends of the ABC after all!

Tholomyès: Dick pasta. Quite literally self-explanatory. Idea courtesy of @calico-cows .

Part 2 coming soon.....?

[werepuppy-steve]

eddie rubs his hands together as their waitress, cindy, sets his breakfast sampler and strawberries and cream crepes in front of him. he's already reaching for the ketchup and maple syrup to drown his food in.

steve thinks it's too early for him look that gleeful in the middle of an ihop. it's barely nine in the morning.

"give me a shout if you boys need anything else," cindy says as she sets down steve's smokehouse combo and new york cheesecake pancakes. "i'll be over to top your coffee off in a minute."

"thank you, cindy," they call as she walks away.

steve takes a sip of his coffee and watches eddie pop open the ketchup to smother his eggs and hashbrows with, the tip of his tongue poking out of the corner of his lips.

he resists the urge to lean across the table and kiss him, only because they're in public and steve also doesn't want to risk getting food all over the front of his shirt.

but when eddie squeezes the bottle, it makes a farting noise and all the comes out is a watery splash of red.

"aw no." eddie's face falls into an adorable pout. "not the ketchup pre-cum."

steve sputters and almost sucks his coffee back up his nose. he catches his breath and gives eddie a bewildered stare, but the other boy is focused on smacking the lid of the bottle against his palm.

"i'm sorry—the what?"

eddie finally looks up at him with round eyes, completely clear of any of the confusion that is definitely showing on steve's face currently.

"the ketchup pre-cum," he says, like steve should know what that is. "you know, the watery bits that squirt out if you don't shake the bottle good enough? kind of looks like pre-cu-"

"i know what pre-cum is," steve cuts him off with a sigh, casting glances around to the other tables to see if anyone else overheard him. "but do you have to call ketchup that?"

eddie only snickers at him. when he's satisfied that it's been shaken to his standards, he snaps open the cap and tries again–

–and lets out a high pitched moan when ketchup comes dribbling out of the bottle.

steve chokes on his spit. they're definitely getting stares from other tables now, and he hides his burning face in his hands while eddie just laughs harder, like the teasing little asshole he is.

"jesus christ," steve murmurs under his breath, dragging his fingers down his face. "can't fucking take you anywhere, i swear."

eddie just gives him a little hum and nudges his foot under the table, looking every bit pleased as goddamn punch.

okay an absolutely deranged and downright ludicrous thought but i am just,, giggling so badly to myself at the thought of mr. reca rating your sexual performance out of five stars literally every single time you engage in anything intimate with him.

and it’s not just a single, simple ‘four stars’; it’s a whole goddamn critics review as if he is analyzing and dissecting a film; what he liked, what he didn’t, where you shine, where you could improve, techniques he believes were ‘overused’, methods he thinks you could’ve incorporated to make things more exciting, interesting, or unpredictable, the pacing and rhythm, suggested approaches for ‘future performances’, etc etc etc.

he may even encourage you to do the same to him, too—consistently and constantly dedicated to ever-improving his art, he wants to hear your feedback, he wants to incorporate your criticisms, and he wants you to do the same. these physical acts of love are, after all, tiny masterpieces your bodies and souls come together to create, and no two are exactly alike; that’s something special, that’s something magical. they absolutely must be taken seriously and treated as such.

You ever just look like your dad

I noticed a bit of same face syndrome going on with these two so I was sketching them again to try and fix that. It’s subtle changes that it’s there.

For the record, Solas & Adahla get deeply competitive over the NYT Games app and have a decade-long text thread of their crossword times & Wordle attempt numbers.

A super scrappy animatic I made of the “CRAZY? I WAS CRAZY ONCE!” bit from the stream.

I tried so hard to get them on model, but I just couldnt figure it out

The hum at the beginning is my own voice pitched down, and the little cackle was take from the pilot. This was posted on YT a day or 2 after the backer kit campaign ended, thought I’d throw it up here as well.

Tagged by @neongnistor to post six pictures from my camera roll! Most of these are from my trip to Kerala in winter 2023 because (1) I was too lazy to scroll back farther and (2) I haven't been able to take pictures since then because my phone is out of storage lol

Tagging @minglana @marazt @quercucinus @jar-jar-ate @zsofiarosebud and anyone else who'd like to do it :D

Usopp’s standalone movie

I believe it would be fantastic if Usopp had his own standalone movie. The movie could depict him saving the day or the crew temporarily separating from him. It would be great to explore his backstory from Syrup Village, potentially involving a relative of Kuro coming after him or Luffy. I think it's important to have a good soundtrack and cool effects.

Even though there is a risk that the movie may not do well, I am confident that people would watch it, despite the fact that Usopp has a polarizing perception among fans. This movie could make up for his lack of focus in the series, giving us a chance to see him in sniper mode and using Observation Haki. Fans would be interested in seeing this unexpected side of Usopp.

The movie could also touch upon the Water 7 arc and his insecurities, and we might even get a Yasopp flashback. It would be a refreshing change, as it wouldn't be focused on the Monster Trio and other One Piece characters, but rather on a deeply flawed character that people very very often criticize, despite being a member of the Mugiwara crew. I sincerely believe he could carry a movie alone, though I may be biased. The potential for this idea is huge, and it would likely generate a lot of interest on social media. Usopp fans would be so happy! I know I may be overly optimistic, but a fan can dream.

Almond and Barley…

Almond syrup is also known as Orgeat syrup(which most of the time now includes other things like orange blossom water or rose water). It used to be made with barley and almond blend. Thats where the name comes from.

“The word “orgeat” has its origins in the French word for barley, as the original syrup was a mix of barley and almonds.”

Where does barley come in Good Omens specifically with Aziraphale?

I’ve been reading Stars and Stripes since I got the novel and I’ve done nothing but giggle at the banter that goes down between Aiden and Jordi thank you tumblr for making me aware of this novel’s existence

I also doodled this one scene because I giggled at it and if I giggled at it I feel prompted to show it do you

The ‘scene’ in question:

‘When the waitress came back with fluffy pancakes stacked three deep, each as big as his plate, Aiden’s stomach growled.

Aiden stared at them with abiding love before pouring maple syrup all over until they turned from a light brown to a dark sodden colour.

“You are disgusting,” said Jordi who’d watched him drown in his breakfast with a horrified expression.
