Benrey knew about bouquets theoretically.

They were what the winners got in some sports games, and they were bought by sitcom boyfriends when they’d fucked up with their girlfriends. They were bundles of flowers that held some kind of meaning that was really beyond Benrey.

The thing was, he never saw one in person until months after they’d all made it out of Black Mesa. They were all at the Boomer household, throwing them an anniversary party. No one was quite sure if it was their one year anniversary or fiftieth anniversary -- neither of them would give anyone a clear answer -- but Bubby had presented his husband with an enormous bouquet of flowers, trying and failing to appear like anything but a sappy fool.

Benrey was fascinated by it.

Xen didn’t have flowers. There were plant-adjacent things, sure, but most of them tried to stab passersby or emitted poisonous gasses. Benrey was sitting on a barstool next to the bouquet in its vase on the countertop, and he had yet to be stabbed by the dethorned roses, and the sprigs of lavender didn’t emit anything except a soothing scent that reminded him of the hand lotion Gordon wouldn’t let him eat. He gently ran his fingers over the layers of carnation petals while Coomer spoke beside him.

“-language of flowers was introduced to England in the early 18th century by Mary Wortley, Lady Montague, whose husband was Ambassador to Turkey. By the Victorian era, almost every-”

“Flowers have a language?” Benrey said, looking up and zoning back into the Wikipedia infodump.

“Yes!” Dr. Coomer informed him brightly. “Floriography (language of flowers) is a means of cryptological communication through the use or arrangement of flowers. Meaning has been attributed to flowers for thousands of years, and some form of floriography has been practiced in traditional cultures throughout Europe, Asia, and Africa. In Western culture, William Shakespeare ascribed emblematic meanings to flowers, especially in Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. Similarly, in a scene in his Henry VI, Part 1, English noblemen pick either red or white roses to symbolize their allegiance to the Houses-”

“So different colors have different meanings? Like, uh. Like Sweet Voice?”

“Yeah!” Tommy answered him this time, Dr. Coomer too busy telling the rest of them about Victorian flower meanings. “And- And each kind of flower has a different meaning too. It’s like a whole language!”

Benrey stared at the bundle of flowers in front of him. He sang out a Sweet Voice note the exact shade of one of the scabiosas and smiled.

He didn’t tell anyone his plan when he started. Something told him that would ruin it somehow. It felt more meaningful to have it be a surprise. He did his research in private. Wikipedia may be gone, but there were still plenty of websites eager to inform him of all the strange meanings Victorians applied to flowers. (What the hell was “assiduous to please” supposed to mean?) He stayed up after Tommy and Gordon had gone to bed, and sang notes of Sweet Voice as softly as he could, searching for the right correlations between flowers and Sweet Voice colors.

A bouquet arrived on Bubby and Coomer’s doorstep first. Cheerful American starworts and chrysanthemums wrapped in convolvulus, accompanied by sprigs of larch and black poplar. (White like sagebud to misty golden, you’re a bold one. Morning glory, I’m glad you got through this story. Black poplar to yellow larch, I’ll follow where you charge.) Bubby was wildly confused by its appearance, but the next time he saw them, Coomer took Benrey under his arm and gave him a noogie that would’ve drilled a hole into anyone else’s skull.

Gordon and Tommy’s came next, and Benrey made sure they arrived at the same time. Gordon was the one to find them, having opened the door to two bouquets addressed to the two of them. “Uh, Tommy?” He called out over his shoulder, picking up his bouquet and examining it. Bright Peruvian heliotropes peered out from between hundred-leaved roses and pencil-leaved geraniums, all surrounded by southernwood and Irish ivy. (Purple as heliotrope, you give me hope. Geranium to rosy pink, I’ll love you forever, I think. Green as ivy and southernwood, for you, I’ll be good.) “Do you know anything about this?”

“No,” Tommy said, walking up behind him and peering over his shoulder. When Gordon stepped aside for him, he scooped up his bouquet too. His was entirely made of flowers, a bright splash of color: the warm colors of the red periwinkles and scarlet lychnis offset by the American cowslips and traveller’s joys. (Scarlet, with you, my worries I forget. Purple like cowslip, I think you’re smart as a whip. White, you make my life bright.) “Benrey, do you- did you do this?”

“Nah, man.” Benrey shrugged, hands in his pockets. “Y’all must have, uh. Some kinda secret admirer, or something.”

Tommy stared at him for a long moment, and Benrey could swear he saw the wheels turning in Tommy’s head, but if he was going to say anything, he was distracted by Gordon ushering them into the kitchen to find vases.

He was hunched over his laptop that night again, trying to figure out if he could feasibly make a tiny arrangement of sorrel, bearded crepis, and juniper to put on Joshua’s bedside table (Green to juniper blue, I’ll protect you. Yellow, I’m proud of this tiny fellow) without Gordon accusing him for bringing weeds in the house, when a voice broke the relative silence of the living room.

“Ben?” Gordon said groggily. Benrey jumped in his seat and sang out a string of surprised teal. “You’ve been coming to bed late like every night this week, what’s up.”

“Uh, nothing. Just… browsing. Making deals on… eBay.” Benrey bluffed. Gordon squinted at him, clearly not believing the lie, then glanced at the laptop screen.

“Are those flowers?”

“...What are flowers.”

Gordon snorted and draped himself over the back of the couch. “I fucking knew it. You’re not sneaky, dude.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. What are flowers.”

Gordon flicked the side of his head. “Why were you keeping the bouquet thing a secret?”

“I dunno.” Benrey looked away, embarrassed. “Thought it’d be a fun surprise.”

Gordon chuckled and leaned in to kiss his cheek. “I never expected you to be the sentimental type.”

“Didja like them, though?” Benrey looked up, hopeful.

“Obviously. I put them on the kitchen table, they’re beautiful.” Gordon straightened up and reached for Benrey’s hands. “Now c’mon, Gordon want cuddles.”

“Gordon want cuddles? Cuddles from Benrey?” Benrey teased, taking Gordon’s hands and standing. “What about Tommy?”

“Tommy also want cuddles. He’s the one who told me to go get you.” Gordon said, pulling him up the stairs to their room. “Also, he figured out the flower meanings. Why the hell is there a plant for bantering?”

“The Victorias knew banter is important to any relationship, man. It’s like you don’t even understand enemies-to-lovers, smh.”

“Stop saying abbreviations out loud.” Gordon laughed, shoving him into bed, where Tommy sleepily grabbed him.

The following afternoon, Benrey found a vase of roses addressed to him, alongside several seed packets.

Bearded Crepis - Thor x Reader(f) Drabble

Authors Notes: This ones for you Anon! I really love writing for Thor so thanks for your request!!

Word Count: 750

Notes/Warnings: lots of talk of blood and injuries, angst, fluff, mentions of death, Sass.

Bearded Crepis = Protection

You struggled but kept your fists up as high as you could. “I can do this all-”

Another fist to the jaw knocked you to the floor.

“Yeah, that’s not really my line to use.” You spit blood from your mouth and probed at the raw spot in your cheek where your teeth had ripped the skin. You coughed hard when some of the blood dripped down your throat.

The man towering above you laughed. “Where is this storm you boasted about?” He kicked you in the stomach, sending you flying backwards and you collided with a stone fireplace.

You struggled to catch the air he forced out of your lungs. The fear that you were about to die started to creep into your mind. You held up a finger, begging for a moment and out of sheer entertainment he obliged.

Thaedus placed his axe on a nearby table.

The dining hall of this abandoned castle was as eerie as could be and Thaedus’ deep, rumble of a laugh wasn’t making things any better. “I’ve heard legends of you, Lady Y/N. Tales of your great victories in battle. But I must say I’m greatly disappointed. Vanquishing you will be easy and frankly not worth the effort of seeking you out.”

You could hear a low rolling of thunder in the distance.

You smiled. “There is a saying here on Midgard; do not count your fowl before they are hatched. I’m still unsure,” You winced hard as you tried to stand. “I’m still unsure why they say it but it amuses me.”

You stood as straight as you could and looked Thaedus in his cold, dark, eyes.

“I’m glad,” He lied. “For it will be the last thing that brings you joy.” He raised his axe and hurled his arm back. He lurched forward releasing the axe and sending it spinning towards you.

Time seemed to stop. His axe was headed straight for your head and it was only meters away. You thought about running. The thunder could really just be from the earth’s weather system in which case you’d need to save yourself. Or it could be your saving grace and you wouldn’t need to move. Either way you knew one thing for sure; You wouldn’t let Thaedus see you tremble.

Instead, you ran towards it. His axe flew closer and you screamed at it. If you died today, you would at least die fighting.

A bolt of lightning threw you back into a tree trunk, only, there were no trees inside.

Thor held you upright with his eyes fixed on Thaedus. “You’ve made a grave mistake coming and laying hands on my wife.”

You spit more blood from your mouth and glared at Thaedus with a wicked grin. His axe was split in two and lying on the hard stone floor. “I told you a storm was coming.”

Thor turned a chuckled. “You actually said that to him?”

You wanted to shrug but settled for a cheeky brow raise. “I was counting on a dramatic entrance, Love.”

Thor laughed until a silver goblet collided with the back of his head.

“I will not be made a fool!” Thaedus screamed. His fit resembled a child’s tantrum more than an enraged warrior.

Thor extended a hand and a bolt of lightning hit Thaedus square in the chest, dropping him dead.

“My love, why must you entertain these fights?” Thor asked as he walked to you and one massive hand held your chin. He frowned at the sight of the beating you’d taken.

You sighed. “I like to think that one day I will actually win one on my own.” You tugged your face from his hand and limped towards the sword you had lost early on in the fight. You only took a few steps before you felt Thor’s strong arm slip around your waist, a strong and steady support.

“I have no doubt that you could.” He kissed the top of your head. “But perhaps,” he paused as he helped you lean down to grab your sword. “You should pick a foe to match your size.”

You looked up at him with wide eyes.

“And perhaps I should stop talking.”

“Perhaps you should.” Your eyes narrowed but you smirked.

“I only want to protect you.” He explained.

You sheathed your weapon and Thor scooped you up. You relaxed against him. “You always do. I can always trust in that.”
