early mornings with farmer!könig
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
early mornings with könig include his firm, tight grip on your waist. he doesn't let go, not for a second. his tight grasp doesn't falter despite your squirming. groaning out and scolding you for moving so much, his face and nose buried in your hair — huffing at your sweet, strawberry essence. wearing nothing but your lace panties and bra, his thigh between yours and your legs intertwined with eachother.
it takes a lot to get up, too comfortable in eachothers silence and warmth. the sun peaking over the horizon, flashing through the blinds and allowing some cool air to seep through the gap in the window. the birds sing their melody, and he begins shuffling and moving. you almost think he's getting up — only pulling you closer and closer to himself. “sonnenschein...” his voice raspy, he grumbles out, eyelids slightly open before closing again, feeling as you turn to face him.
pressing your forehead against his, he smiles and chuckles before holding you tighter. his eyes finally crack open to admire your morning beauty, kissing your soft lips and leaning back on his white cushion. large, brute arm hung loosely around your waist, pulling you against him and covering his eyes with his other forearm. “so tired,” he mutters , you giggle. trailing your fingertips over his covered chest, a loose and breathable jumper on, the sleeves rolled up to his forearm.
he sits up, removing his jumper before leaning back down. a groan leaves him as you run your fingers to his abdomen, chuckling and holding your wrist before interlocking his large, calloused hand with yours. the sounds of birds chirping can be heard from outside, trees a bright green as spring approaches summer. the flowers are painted beautiful pastel colours, such as; purple, yellow and white.
chickens making the cluck-cluck sound and the sun a golden colour. the strawberries look ready for picking, perhaps you'll make a strawberry cheesecake or a pie of some sort whilst he works on the farm. his hands finding their way into your hair, noticing you zoning out. “what are you thinking about?” he smiles, seeing you flutter your eyes closed, a small smile curling the corners of your mouth. “nothing, baby.”
it's early, 05:21 to be exact. just twenty-one minutes past five o'clock, you had some time to spare. a knitted blanket at the end of the bed, and a yawn coming from your mouth as you finally wake up. sitting up, you pull your housecoat on, a white wooly robe around yourself, your bra peaking from the top. “coffee or tea?” your voice laced with honey, picking up his glass of water on the bedside table. “coffee, please, schatzi.”
the kettle boils and you do some dishes laying around in the sink, putting them away and adding the some milk before heading back upstairs with the mug in hand. he grabs the handle, smiling at you before you make your way to the bathroom to get ready for the early start of your day. cold water on your face and your breath fresh, a short, lace sundress on your form and some boots to go pick the growing, fresh fruit; the perfect season for them.
he's ready once your basket is full of red and blue berries, placing it on the counter before he heads off and onto the farm to feed the cows and chickens and sheep, calling you out to milk them. you giggle softly at his clinginess in the mornings; embracing warmth and comfort, holding you and snoring quietly behind you.
you did end up making that strawberry cheesecake, his favourite.

«"If you don't like a man then don't accept food from him, you deadbeat"
My best friend pays for our lunches one day.
Breakfast is on me another day.
I visit my aunt and she gives me a taco.
I go to my mother in law's and she gives me fruit.
My friend's mom has sent me lunch to school many times.
The party is over and my godmother tells me "wait, I'm giving you takeaway".
Mom has visitors and she figures out how to give something away, she gives away because "a taco is denied to nobody".
It's weird how only men think that feeding someone is a kind of sexual services contract or a debt that someone has with them to secure a sentimental relationship.
How nice is being women and giving eachother sweets, chocolates, cookies, share chips, tea with joy.»

linecook!jj hand feeding you something but you just start sucking on his fingers :///
ੈ♡⸝⸝🍓⋆🤍₊⊹
you sit outside beneath the canopy of the restaurant, the bustling sounds from inside fading beneath the gentle blowing of the breeze and distant ocean. you were visiting jj at work, not because it was a particularly slow day and he needed the company — infact, it was busy, you just missed him so much you thought you’d swing by.
he shoves out the back doors, a cling-film wrapped plate in his hand, wiping the other on his apron that was tied around his waist.
“‘sup babe, can’t stay out here for too long. it’s busy as shit and my manager is on my ass but,” he leans down, pressing a sloppy wet kiss to your lips only worsening your needy mood. “hi.”
“hi jayj, what have you got?” you eye the plate and he smirks, whipping off the cover. “chocolate covered strawberries for m’lady. our supervisors goin’ on maternity leave so she brought ‘em in for everyone. try it.” he plucks one off the plate as he plonks down on the bench beside you at the table, scooting right up so you could feel the warmth of his body radiating against your side.
he lifts a strawberry and brings it to your mouth, cupping beneath your chin with the other. “say ah, duchess.” he smirks, letting you chow down on the sweet treat. your lashes flutter with a quiet moan making him subconsciously lick at his lips, eyes on your mouth. “mmmhm. good, right?”
“yeah.” you smile, cheek bulging with the fruit. he goes to pull his hand away but your brows furrow, hand shooting up to keep it there. “keep feedin’ me.” you whine in complaint, and his eyes linger on you for a moment— feeling bad that you were clearly feeling submissive and needing him while he was on shift.
“easy babydoll. open up.” you finish chewing the other strawberry and he brings another to your lips. this time, when he’s finished feeding you, your fingers delicately wrap around his wrist, clashing with the beaded bracelet you’d made him looped around it. you begin to kitten lick the melted chocolate off his fingers, before giving in and starting to suck on them with a quiet moan.
his brows jump up, eyes darting around for a second for any on-going watchers, letting you suck away. “sweet jesus, babe.” he mutters under his breath as he gets lost in the moment. he jumps when the shrill voice of his manager cuts through the moment, her holler carrying from inside.
“maybank, get back in here. we need you!” she yells and he gently eases his fingers out with a sigh.
“oh shhh—” he whips his head around as he senses her appear at the doorway with raised brows. “shhh—abadoobaba…” he sings half heartedly, not wanting to break her rule for not cursing when there’s customers around.
“inside, now.” she nods before disappearing and he huffs, standing up.
“thats uh, for you to keep.” he gestures to the plate of strawberries before looking down at you under his nose. “and i’m sorry i couldn’t stay longer. i’ll see you tonight, yeah?”
you nod, eyes all glazed over from the moment you just shared and he bends at the waist, pinching your jaw to give you a parting kiss. he presses his lips to yours, before pulling away just a tad, lips still brushing against eachother — eyes still closed. “‘know i love you babe but if you ever make me hard at work like that again i’m pulling the belt on your ass. i’m serious”.
he pulls away, observing your sweet doe eyes and adjusts the apron round his waist. “lucky i’m wearing this thing, huh?” he lets a smirk slip before backing away, jogging back inside. “see you later, cupcake!”

Lips anon! Baby Benji getting a tummy ache, and Miguel takes him with him to get medicine. Miguel is looking for it, but then an employee tries to subtly hit on him and fails miserably. Trying to tell him which medicines would probably work best. Miguel already knows what he wants though. He becomes annoyed with her and gets up, but before he can say anything, Baby Benji pukes up all over her lol
🤭🤭 Baby Benji saving his dad from awkward situations.
Miguel disliked when Benjamin seemed particularly fussy, it meant a lot of things and most of them weren't good. Everything started after he had eaten the spicy fruits, something he got an earful for, and this was precisely why you didn't feed heavily seasoned and spicy foods to your 18 month old baby.
"You gave him the food, handle it." You'd scold him as you helped Gabi with her homework.
He'd take Benjamin with him and secured him on his baby seat and drove to the nearest drugstore. Benjamin fussiness stopped for a bit as he drove, soon he parked. The clerks couldn't help but notice his hulking figure holding a tiny beautiful baby.
"Look at that." The clerk spoke as her coworker bit her lips.
"Man... can I be envious of a toddler? Like I mean it."
They both chuckled and hushed once the bell in the door announced his presence. Benjamin stirred in his chest, half asleep half uncomfortable.
"Tranquilo, campeón. Ya te vas a sentir mejor." (Relax, champ. You'll feel better soon.)
Upon hearing his voice, the women elbowed eachother and one of them approached.
"Hi! Welcome, how can I assist you today?"
Miguel just acknowledged her with a stare and a brief nod.
"Good evening."
"Are you looking for something in particular?"
His jaw tensed briefly, Benjamin however looked at the woman and cooed.
"Oh boy, he's gorgeous." Miguel put some Zofran for the nausea and Vomikind in the small basket.
"Thanks." Miguel was too focused on the several labels of pediatric medicines that the store offered. One arm held Benjamin as the other one held the basket that looked ridiculously small on his hand.
Benji started stirring and cooing uncomfortable on his arms again. He tossed in some more items, a bottle of Advils, some mouthwash a new toothbrush, moist towels more diapers.
Benjamin started hiccuping and crying softly, it was his cue for leaving.
He ignored the following clerk, instead went to the cashier. He was checking out when the clerk approached once more. His back tensed visibly. Not that he had dealed with these sort of women, but right now his kid and his tummy ache was his priority, not manners.
"Look at this beautiful baby!" She said to her coworker as Miguel held him now by the torso.
Bad choice.
Benji was now facing the woman, she was about to cup his cheeks when Benjamin puked on her hollowed hands before him.
"Oh my god!" the woman shrieked and shook her hands and Miguel sighed.
"Sorry for that." Miguel face was contorted in one of half disgust, half surprise.
"Don't worry, I've got this. Not the first nor last incident inside." The cashier spoke hurriedly, the smell of vomit lingering in the air as the annoying woman ran to the bathroom.
Once everything paid, he fled the place after wiping and cleaning his face.
Benjamin seemed more at ease. A little more like his usual self.
"Thanks for that, champ." He kissed his son's forehead and drove back home. Benji just gave him a toothy grin.

Dad!driver looking after mom!reader whe she's feeling overwhelmed with the baby.
Driver of your choice.
Tw: postpartum, breastfeeding
"Hey, little one, aren't you fussy today?", Daniel cooed at your daughter as he picked her up from her cot, holding her against his chest. Sophia seemed to be going through a rough patch in her sleep, or maybe you had said 'she's a very good baby, sleeps very well', outloud too many times and the universe ought to test you.
Like clockwork, you were up as soon as you heard her cries, shifting your position against the pillows so you could get her, "I have her", your husband said in a low voice, not wanting to disturb your sleepy state. Because Sophia had been struggling with sleep, you and Daniel hadn't been sleeping much either, the only difference being that he wasn't recovering from giving birth to a baby, so between you two, he was the one dealing better with the sleep deprivation.
"Come here, babygirl, I have just what you want", you stretched your arms, holding her and helping her approach her mouth to your nipple, "there we go, my love, it's all good", you smoothed put her head. Daniel excused himself, saying he was going to the kitchen to get something.
You had finished feeding Sophia and gotten up to burp her when Daniel got back, "I was on the phone with my parents, and grandpa Joe and grandma Grace are more than happy to take over and be with Sophia for the afternoon", he offered as he walked closer to you, "you've been stretching yourself thin, and I figured it would do you, and us, some good to have some help. Besides, mum and dad were excited for some cuddles", he attempted, checking any signs of you not agreeing to the idea, "they really don't mind?", you asked, "they don't", Daniel said as he kissed your forehead, "they'll be here in fifteen minutes".
When Joe and Grace arrived, your mother in-law kissed your cheek sweetly before whispering, "go and rest, darling. Don't listen to the voice in your head saying you're a bad mother because you'd like some hours away from her, it's completely okay. She loves you so much, and she wants you, and needs you, to be happy, too", she smiled, rubbing your shoulder as you and Daniel went upstairs while they stayed in the dowstairs area of the house.
"I was thinking we could go and have a shower, those 'everything showers' people talk about", Daniel suggested as he walked you inside your shared bedroom, "I got that set from the laundry room earlier this morning", he said as he kissed your shoulder as you looked at your favourite lounge wear set laying on top of your bed. It was soft and stretchy, so, really, it was the perfect fit for the time being.
"You really are the best, Danny", you whispered, turning around and kissing his lips, "I always try to make sure you know why you keep me around", he joked, picking you up and taking you to the bathroom.
Like he promised, Daniel turned the shower and walked in with you, helping you wash your body and grabbing the razor from your hands, helping you shave your legs before you did the rest, kissing his tanned skin afterwards as you both lathered shampoo in eachother's hair, "I love you so much, Y/N", he would whisper every time he felt like it, "you're the most gorgeous woman", another kiss was pressed on your skin, "the best mummy for Sophia, and the best partner in life".
"My sister said I should get this body oil and make sure you used it, so I think giving you a massage is the best way to guarantee that", he winked once you got out of the shower and wrapped yourselves up in towells, "just be careful around my chest, please", you said as you lied down, seeing Daniel's beaming smile. You had been slowly learning to love your body after having a baby, and seeing you grow so comfortable and proud of your body made him smile as he felt that in a way his words of encouragement and actions had been fruitful.
The massage was blissful and playful, too, giggles flying around in the room as you grabbed some of the oil and rubbed it on Daniel's skin, "thank you, for this, I wouldn't have admitted it, but I needed this", you mumbled, "Soph is downstairs, if they need anything, they'll call, and besides, they raised kids and grandkids of their own. Soph, even with her sleep all messed up, is still the quietest of the grandchildren", he chuckled.
Once your hair was dry, Daniel laid next to you in the bed as you fell asleep, hoping to sleep properly now that you knew your daughter was fine too.
You wake up from the nap to smell some delicious food, heading downstairs to see the table set up, Joe playing with Sophia on her tummy time and Grace taking a tray out of the oven, "I made roast chicken, that recipe you really like", she smiled sweetly before you walked closer to your daughter, "and for her, we took one of the frozen bags in the freezer", she said as she rubbed your back, "you're doing great, darling, she's such a happy baby", she comforted.
"Daniel is a great man", you began, "I know I keep telling you this, but it's true. You raised a great son, both of you did", you told Grace and Joe once Daniel grabbed Sophia and took her to her nursery to change her nappy and put her pyjamas on her, "you are both a great team, dear", Joe added.
(Thank you for submitting an ask 🤍)

Hi! It's me again :3, I don't know (and remember) if anyone has asked this before but I would like to know:
How did OG!MK feel when he found out that SW is his father in another dimension (I feel like Mei would say something like "See? I told you he was your dad" or something)
If it happens before S4, I feel like Mk would be a little jealous of his other self seeing that he doesn't have the problem of not knowing who his biological parents.
(The idea occurred to me when I remembered a tiktok that said MK used any type of editing app to get an idea of ​​what his parents would look like 🥲)
omg if you have that tiktok I'd love a link XD
Think i did do a post like that ages ago, but only with an earlier draft of TMKATI and canon. Now I have like three more verses to torment MK with >:)
When the Canon verse and the other verses collide, the quickest thing the MKs would notice is their appearances.
OG!MK: "Whoa!! These me's are monkey demons!" TMKATI!MK: "And you guys are... human???" SlowBoiled!MK: "Yeah, why wouldn't him- I mean me be?" CenturyEgg!MK: "I don't know about you guys - but my parents are monkey demons. Then again my gūtā [dad's gender neutral older sibling] is human, I think???" JTTWEgg!MK: "My parents are monkey demons! The coolest monkey demons ever I may brag." TMKATI!MK: "Oh no way! My parents are monkey demons too! i have a bunch of adopted siblings though. Does your dad work with Bóbo[dad's older brother] Pigsy too?" CenturyEgg!MK: "No cus Uncle Pigsy and Tang lives in the city. We all live on Flower Fruit Mountain - but we visit as often as possible! Uncle Sandy ferries us across all the time." :3 OG!MK: "Wow!! You two live on the mountain!? What's it like?" JTTWEgg!MK, shrugging: "It's cool." CenturyEgg!MK: "Sometimes feel pressured by my role as Heir to the Stone Throne - but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I really don't like having to visit the Celestial Realm though. The nobles are kinda mean about my dad cus he caused a bunch of havoc a long time ago." The Other MKs: "wut" OG!MK: "Uh... Please explain who your parents are?" CenturyEgg!MK, confused by their confusion: "Sun Wukong the Monkey King, and Liu'er Mihou the Sage of Wind??? I thought you guys were too???" JTTWEgg!MK: "Yeah, mine are too. I thought you guys knew??" SlowBoiled!MK: "No- well kind- it's complicated! Ok!?" TMKATI!MK: "Not me. My parents are normal monkey demons, dude." OG!MK: "Oh my gods the Monkey King *is* our dad in another universe! Mei is never gonna let me forget this!" CenturyEgg!MK: "Well techinically he's my mom too so..." The Other MKs: "lol wat?" JTTWEgg!MK: "lol same."
The different MKs collaborate to tell stories about themselves (and get a solid PSA on Stone Eggs) while their respective Meis are snapping photos with eachother.
The different monkeys watch on nervously. The different monkey kings are sitting politely as their Macaques hiss at eachother from across the room.
OG!SWK: "So uh... did you tell him yet?" Other Monkeys: "Tell him what?" SlowBoiled!SWK: "About him being made by Nuwa, or the fact that we were forced to abandon him?" The CenturyEgg and TMKATI monkeys: "What." TMKATI!SWK, laughing nervously: "What? Oh gods no. I thought you guys meant telling him who we are!" The Other Monkeys: "Wut" CenturyEgg!SWK: "Your MK doesn't know that you guys are... Us?" TMKATI!LEM: "Nah, we've sorta been off-the-grid ever since genius here [thumb-points at his SWK] got me pregnant with our MK." The Stone Egg au SWKs: "Hah!" "Uno reverse card, plums!" Stone Egg LEMs: *all three have varying looks of horror, indignance, and bashfulness* SlowBoiled!LEM: "I said I was sorry!" OG!LEM: "Wait... what do you mean by sorry?" SlowBoiled!LEM, looking uncomfortable: "Cus of our uh... fight under the Mountain, and me not returning to feed him, I sorta caused Wukong's body to create a Stone Egg... and then I sorta died before I found out so..." JTTWEgg!LEM: "Ooof. Glad I learned early then." CenturyEgg!SWK, to his SlowBoiled counterpart: "Oh bummer, you got left with Stone Egg all the way back then? I started up the process willingly after I had to seal away DBK. When was the little guy born?" SlowBoiled!SWK: "Little lady actually. Yuebei was born about six months ago. Our MK was crafted by Nuwa - then again I did raise him the first year until I became too weak to care for him..." *looks sad* TMKATI and CenturyEgg monkeys: "Oh no..." :( "Stone eggs are super dangerous to the people around them. I don't blame you." JTTWEgg!SWK: "Odd. I got an Egg from the mountain too - but mine was born shortly after I completed the Journey. And mine was our MK. Did losing Mihou make the process longer??" OG Monkeys: "What?" "How many of you have MK as your kid!?" (*Cue them having to make a Venn Diagram of Whos' MK is What to Whom*) OG!SWK: "Ok so! Mine and the guy with the super-adorbs baby got our MKs dumped on us." SlowBoiled Monkeys: *proudly showing photos of their Yuebei* OG!LEM: "The me in sweatpants had him cus of a comet /slash/ stone egg soul mishap." TMKATI!LEM: "Oh, my Wukong was still responsible there. He sealed the Harbringer's soul inside me after using a sealing spell. TMKATI!SWK: "I panicked, ok!" OG!SWK, pointing at the remaining universes: "Annnd you two literally birthed him yourselves." CenturyEgg and JttwEgg SWKs: "Yup." "Stone shell and all." OG!SWK: "...is there anything else I'm missing?" The other universes: (*scratching their chins in thought*) SlowBoiled!LEM, slyly: "So are you guys back together yet, or what?" OG Monkeys: "What!?" "As if!"
Laughter just erupts around the room as the canon shadowpeach pairing realises that they're the odd ones out as *not* being together.
Complete and utter chaos reigns when the parent and MK groups reunite, and they recognise some sort of connection...

Feeding a Flying City
Tumblr media
[Aeor, by Pretty Useful Co.]
This started as a little exercise in my worldbuilding thoughts for some off-hand stuff mentioned in my current fic, but I uh. Got Into It. So enjoy, if you're into two thousand words of nerding out about fantasy economics and agriculture and spells. For the sake of context, this is specifically looking at Exandria's flying cities in the Age of Arcanum, working off D&D 5E's rules as written (so I'm avoiding inventing spells).
When tackling the Age of Arcanum in my fanfic, I knew going in that I wanted to use this space to stretch my worldbuilding muscles and fill in some of the space left by Matthew Mercer and Brennan Lee Mulligan with reasonably plausible meat and bones.
One thing I was excited to squint at was the issue of how the hell flying cites feed their populations. 
The ‘lonely city’ is a common fantasy trope, especially in visual media. Your towering bastion of civilization (or spire of evil) on the open plains, or beside a river, or deep in the mountains certainly makes for a great symbol. A flying city is really the ultimate version of this, completely disconnected from the petty ground below… and the farmland that usually would surround any metropolis. 
See, in medieval times, you only had so much time to transport good until they spoiled. Some could be more forgiving than others - however, given a city often aggregates political and financial elite, there is an expectation that they can get their fresh fruits, and decadent game. Even beyond freshness, if you have a lot of people in one place who are not actively growing their own crops, a lot of more-or-less processed food needs to get into the city daily. And though you could station your acres of farmland just over the hill so they don’t ruin the ~scenic approach~, that will cost more to transport. The fact is, having a lot of people - poor and rich - in one place requires a lot of food, every day, to feed them. And it has to come from somewhere.
(Off-topic note, medieval castles (not necessarily cities) were also there to, y’know, defend the populace. So they had to be both near enough to their peasants to respond to aggression, and near enough for the people to get to the castle for shelter when needed. Which is not relevant to this point.)
Magic, like refrigeration, greenhouses and GMO crops, allows a society to sidestep some of these issues. Which is great! But how the flying cities could use the resources they have to feed their population is half the fun in theorizing. 
To quickly recap what we know to be common to flying cities of the time:
Limited to the city only, usually a location with ground dense with brumestone (i.e., no farmland). 
Their limited ‘undergrounds’ are often fairly dense with more structures (Aeor’s many levels; the labyrinth and tons of administrative locations inside Avalir).
They are nomadic and engage in trade (both with eachother and grounded cities, like Vasselheim).
… but they all likely came from landed roots, and potentially were once perfectly normal cities. 
So. How do you feed your people while flying a path that might take years to travel (ex: Avalir’s 7-year trek), especially between trade stops?
The last surviving flying city is Draconia, which is really fragments of a larger nomadic city that decided to remain fairly sedentary compared to its predecessors. Its answer was probably pretty simple: given that Draconia hovered within Dreemoth Ravine, the tailed dragonborn could just… collect a tithe of crops from the enslaved ravenites. It’s already canon that they were put to work in the mines, so working the land also unfortunately makes sense. It’s unclear how the food then got up to the city (skyships, given they have ready brumestone access?), but given Draconia seems to be an exception to the rules I can (mostly) confidently rule out ‘the Age of Arcanum was built on abusing the grounded cities and towns, potentially requiring an age of magically-enhanced farming to provide for the people above and/or risking the farmers going hungry in favor of the mageocracies’. 
Here’s where magic offers numerous solutions, and just as many weird problems! 
First of all, the stupidly isolated nature of flying cities means that any method of bringing food in has to be extremely structured. Mom and pop can’t just bring the donkey to the farmer’s market to sell their goods in Avalir; to get there you need to fly (more scheduled) or teleport (requires a mage, and limited quantities of goods). So from the getgo a lot of financial control is likely in the cities’ hands. Which… is not all too dissimilar from history, but the lack of flexibility is probably more striking here. Shit, I was hoping to get away from Draconia’s grim worldbuilding.
It also places flying cities in a role very similar to an advancing army, requiring food as they march to be drawn from the surrounding lands. While soldiers can break off and loot towns they pass through, a flying city probably can’t just dock in the middle of farmland, grab all the corn and bolt. So the need for a more organized food transport likely helps protect towns from that exploitation. (Though, with the military posturing of Avalir and Aeor, I could see flying cities strong-arming support from grounded ones in exchange for promised protection/aid if they needed it.)
Of course, when docked at another city (Avalir stayed at Vasselheim for ten days in the weeks before the Calamity), they can fairly easily trade with the surrounding towns there… who are also providing for the existing city. Hosting a flying city must be a huge logistics nightmare, but economically worth the headache. 
(Vasselheim likely has a leg up in that it has both a sitting population of mages, such as Vespin pre-fuckup, and the likes of Clerics, who I’ll get to soonish.)
In EXU: Calamity, skyships (and an offhand mention of something called an ornithopter) already exist, which could facilitate the bulk transport of goods. Based on the speed of the Silver Sun in Campaign 3 (4-5 days to cover ~700 miles translates to a speed of ~5-6.5 knots; for context that seems to be about the middling range for a medieval tradeship), this seems like an excellent way of transporting goods that do not spoil easily. Or use arcane equivalents to the canon Bag of Colding to help keep things fresh longer. However, as noted above, this would require a lot of community organization to get crops together when the skyship shows up for harvest.
The tricky thing is that Avalir, at least, follows leylines as it travels. So if there was intent to line up its passes over farmland with their harvest season - to minimize transport distance - it might be difficult to coordinate. Moreover, with an implied many flying cities, and no clear territorial delimitations between their routes (especially if they’re all following leylines; but Avalir at least made stops in Issylra, Gwessar/Tal’Dorei, and Dorumas/the Shattered Teeth at least), I wonder if there would be economic conflict over which cities could be highest bidder for the freshest crops. Which could be Interesting. 
(I wonder if sky piracy, or sky privateering, was a thing in the Age of Arcanum. Nydas is said to have been a pirate on the actual seas, so aquatic trade is still going strong, but given the flying cities are so reliant on limited methods to get food… you could put a lot of pressure on a rival city by capturing a few key skyships full of the last harvests before winter.)
Another option is teleportation. Avalir, after all, has an entire guild devoted to teleporting people around, so critical to its functioning that part of the Betrayers’ plan was to leave them without leadership when they struck. However, teleportation is very much a creature-oriented form of transportation; perhaps you could bring up a herd of cattle for slaughter, but that’s a pretty damn high spell slot for beef.
Avalir is in a fortuitous situation, in that it has a longstanding relationship with the Gau Drashari; druids, well-known masters of plant and animal life. In theory, this could mean Plant Growth casts to increase harvests… but at this time the Gau Drashari specifically only live in Caithmoira, guarding this holy site. So hopping from one druid-boosted farmland to another is unlikely. 
Well, if transporting food to the cities is such an issue, why not produce food in the cities?
While magical greenhouses must account for some luxury fresh goods for sure, I really don’t think the cities as illustrated have enough real estate to actually support their whole populations like this. Like I noted above, of the two cities we know really well, their insides are already full of labs and labyrinths and all sorts of things probably best kept away from your food supply. 
D&D 5E spells offer another answer, and another piece of potentially complicated worldbuilding: Create Food and Water. Per the spell description, it creates enough food to feed 15 people for 24 hours, which seems to neatly solve all our problems! Until you realize the food is explicitly bland (bet you the mages turn up their noses at it), vanishes if not consumed after 24 hours (so that’s a daily 3rd level spell slot from some poor schmuck), and is mostly limited to Paladins and Clerics. You know, godly people, who are so fondly looked upon by the mageocracies. Artificers, at least, are more in line with the Age of Arcanum attitude - but we don’t see any in Calamity, so it’s unclear if the class ‘exists’ per say in the time period. Reducing powerful Paladins and Clerics to food dispensaries - and not even good food, probably for the lower class - would fit in neatly with how the powers of the divine are seen as lesser. Goodberry falls into a similar role: useful, but probably something mages would avoid.
Speaking of spells, let’s get a little fucked up, hm? Who is to say a mage couldn’t just. Summon some pigs to be served up as bacon tomorrow? Well. Conjure Animals specifically says the animals are actually fey, and vanish when their HP reaches 0. Summon Beasts? Same thing. Find Steed? You guessed it. So magic can help us grow food, and transport it, and preserve it, but not actually make it out of nothing. (If there’s a spell I’m missing that completely solves this, please let me know, but I can’t really find one.)
My final little thought came watching geese migrate some time ago. The passenger pigeon has been extinct for… a hundred and ten years, now. But in its hayday, flocks of the birds would literally cloud the sky. Exandria is home to far more stunning beasts than pigeons, and hunting flying game is likely a lot easier when you yourself are flying too. 
Sure, you can apply this to actual fishing when the cities are over the seas, but! Imagine fishing boats but for birds and all manner of winged beasts in great flocks, netting and catching them to haul in. Maybe the magical equivalent of those helicopter boar hunts to deal with invasive populations, but landing at all introduces a whole lot more hassle. Big net and flying device = fresh meat, with an arcane twist.
So: how do you feed a flying city? Especially one with a lavish lifestyle as seen in Avalir, or a hard research focus as in Aeor?
Have an extremely regimented relationship with the towns on your path (likely in competition with other flying cities using these leylines when you are) or that otherwise have food you need. Make sure skyships arrive in time for the harvests. Miss that and things get dicey. 
Supplement this with trade, both with other flying cities and grounded ones when docked. However, docked time has to be limited to not risk starving out the countryside surrounding the city hosting you.
Small deliveries, especially of fresh livestock, can be accomplished through Porter’s Guild or equivalent.
Magically preserve food thus obtained to survive until your schedule and harvests of X Y z goods next align. 
City-based organizations can ‘fish’ for birds as the city flies (or potentially even actually fish as they fly over the ocean) for fresh meat.
Hope to gods (but without hoping to the gods because they’re schmucks) that you time your pick-ups right, that there are no famines, or early frosts, that no one steals your fucking skyships our outbids you on a key agricultural contract, or casts Dispel Magic and makes your food all spoil.
When the carefully-scheduled management of the city’s resources fails, turn to your diviners or healers and have them feed the masses with bland crackers while the Somnovem or Ring of Gold continue eating honeyed lamb and figs. 
If you read this far, I'm super flattered you shifted through my rambles! I'll gladly discuss any glaring mistakes or things I've overlooked; this is only what I considered in worldbuilding for a fic, and I don't pretend to be an expert on medieval agriculture or economic practices.
This was still very fun to (over)think about <3
(Water, of course, would be a similar limiting factor, but is easy enough to magically purify, and would not be too bland when made by Create Food and Water, so I didn’t bring it up.)

Neteyam: Neteyams favourite body part of yours is definitely your hands, he thinks your hands are so soft and small. He always compares your guys’s hands and makes fun of your small hands, he calls them baby hands. He always loves placing little kisses on your palms or on your fingers.
Lo’ak: Lo’ak ADORES your thighs. He loves how soft and squishy they are, hes always running his hands across them softly caressing them or squeezing them.

Lo’ak: Lo’ak loves spooning, most of the time you’ll be the little spoon, your back to his chest with one of his arms around your waist, and you hugging his free hand to your chest. Whenever he is feeling down because of his dad or he’s just had a bad day he will be the little spoon. You clinging to his back holding him, placing kisses on the back of his neck as he drifts off to sleep.
D-Dates/ Do they take you on dates and if so what do they look like.
Neteyam: Neteyam loves showing his love for you by taking you on dates so they happen regularly, his ideal date idea looks like you guys cuddling while watching the stars as he tells you stories about how his father came from one of the stars, you guys have a little picnic set up too with all kinds of fruit, you guys always muck around and feed eachother but you guys both end up with your faces covered in fruit, lying on the ground laughing in each others arms.
Lo’ak: Lo’ak isn’t the best at planning dates for you, he normally gets help from Neytiri or Kiri. When he does plan dates which is rarely, he takes you out on his ilu to a cave.

E- Emotions/ How do they express their feelings to you.
Neteyam: Whenever Neteyam is feeling down he tries to hide it, him being the oldest had made him feel as if he must hide his feelings from his siblings. But whenever he feels down he finds you and talks out hes feelings, he makes it feel closer to you especially when it turns into a deep conversation of you guys sharing your emotions.
Lo’ak: When Jake is harsh on Lo’ak he always comes to you, he doesnt like talking about it though. He just walks over to you with his gaze facing the floor and his arms open wide, you embrace him in your arms while he softly cries on your shoulder. You dont want to say anything so you let him cry it out. He feels so vulnerable with you like this, he would never let anyone else see him like this but your an exception. After he cries it out he then tells you what happened then you guys end up cuddling.

Neteyam: Neteyam loves the idea of you being the mother of his kids. He thinks you will be an amazing mother especially when he sees you playing with the children of the village, your so gentle and understanding with the children and he loves it. But he thinks you guys should wait a few years before starting a family together.
Lo’ak: Lo’ak isnt a big fan of children, so he can definitely wait for you guys to start trying for a baby, but he is the same as neteyam, he adores the love you have for helping children and looking after them, he knows you will be the best mother to his children.
G- Gifts/ How do they feel about receiving gifts from you.
Neteyam: Neteyam loves when you give him gifts, he feels as is if thats your way of expressing your love for him, whenever you give him a gift he hugs you tight and kisses all over your face, you mainly make him bracelets, anklets or necklaces. He always loves the little rocks or trinkets you put on the gifts and he never takes it off once you give it to him. He loves showing off whatever you get him “hey look at this necklace y/n made me”, “look at the crystal she put in this” he loves showing your gifts off and you do too.
Lo’ak: Lo’ak appreciates the gifts you give him but he feels bad if he doesnt have anything to give you in return, he thanks you constantly for it but you tell him its your way of showing him you love him, he gets all flustered when he opens the gifts.
H- Holding hands (how do they like holding your hand)
Neteyam: Neteyam prefers his arm over your shoulders pulling him close to his body rather then holding hands, but when holding hands he loves when you hold his fingers, since your hands are smaller then his he finds it cute when your hands wrap around his fingers.
Lo’ak: Lo’ak loves when your fingers are intertwined with his, your hands warming his, his warming your hands. He loves it, he feels closer to you.
I- Injury (How would they act if you got injured)
Neteyam: Whenever you got hurt during a battle Neteyam was the first by your side, making sure you injuries weren’t fatal and making sure you were conscious, he’d reassure your going to be okay and he’d try his best to not stress you out, he call for people to come help you get to safety and he’d be by your side the entire time.
Lo’ak: Lo’ak would rush to your side and check your injuries, his hand would be gripping yours tightly squeezing it hard. Once help arrives and takes you away to heal you he breaks down, hitting surrounding trees and blaming himself for your injuries.
J- Jokes (do they like to joke around with you or prank you)
Neteyam: Neteyam likes to think hes good at telling jokes but really he only tells dad jokes 😭. You only laugh at them because theyre dad jokes “You laughed y/n see im funny” is what he says every joke.
Lo’ak: Oh my, Lo’ak loves pulling pranks on you, but not pranks where it puts you in danger. Him and tuk always prank you, tuk will ask you to help her with something and lo’ak will be waiting behind a tree with a bucket of water or something.
K- Kisses (how do they like to kiss you)
Neteyam: Neteyam loves kissing your cheeks, forehead and temple, he says it feels more intimate and loving.

Memory- (their favourite memory with you)
Neteyam: When you guys had your first picnic date, you guys had so many different kinds of fruits laying out in leaves. You guys looking up at the stars while he holds you, you babbles on about anything and he listens to your every word.

Neteyam: Neteyams worst fear is letting his parents down and disappointing them, he feels as if his parents are putting too much pressure on him so he fears he will let them down.

O-Oddity (one weird quirk they have)
Neteyam: Neteyam has a weird habit of purring whenever he is comfortable, play with his hair? he purrs. Rub his back and he purrs. He gets hella embarrassed when you point it out but you love it.

Neteyam: It took about 5-6 months, Neteyam only just moved to the reef and then he met you, he didnt want to rush into a relationship and he wanted to know if he truely liked you. After the 5th month of living there snd you helping him every day he finally free the courage to ask you to be his girlfriend.
Lo’ak: Well you and Lo’ak had been bestfriends since birth, but he gained feelings for you when you guys turned 14 and you guys are currently are 18, you guys started dating when you were 16 so it took him 2 years.

X- X-ray (how well are they at reading through you)

Neteyam: Neteyam is a big romantic, would definitely go ask your father for his blessing first, then practise a whole speech. He puts a lot of thought in it, he brings you deep into the forest, then takes you to the tree of spirits, gets on one knee and pops the question.

Neteyam: Put a bow in that boys hand and he will instantly calm down, he’ll shot a few markers on a tree then he will be back to normal instantly
Lo’ak: I feel like Neytiri would be the thing to help him calm down, idk i just feel like at heart hes a mamas boy.

Jake and Neytiri have adopted Spider when he was a baby, now they had Neteyam. and Neytiri doesn't know how human and na'vi biology is different
tw: only mention of breastfeeding
Neytiri has two sons close i age, but only one, the youngest, was hers by womb.
Her sons had only nine months of difference between eachother, that meant that her older son still needed her for everything especially food.
So when Neytri saw the occasion,she lost no time to give him her milk instead of the one the lab gave to her.
He always eated good and until he was full, which was not a na'vi baby size but was still something.
And Neytiri needs to admit it, she enojed giving the child milk, it was a different way to bond with him, a more natural way that she couldn't have because they didn't spent those important nine months together.
And everything was great, until it wasn't
The kid had developed a bad stomach ache, that meant, trip to the lab, dippers of the lab and wake up in the middle of the night to find, one dirty baby who was crying and the other who was crying for the bed smell.
"We are stopping it today" Jake said picking up Neteyam.
"What do you mean Ma Jake?" She asked him, the dirty baby in her arms crying for what he had done.
"I'm taking Neteyam to your mother, we meet at the lab" he said to Neytiri making her shiver a bit.
She already had to spend all day long with the sky people, once she was home, she wanted to be only with her mate and their kids.
So, a surprise visit wasn't really on her list, and she tried to much to persuade Jake to come back to bed, that she would have change Spider dipper, and that they would be okay for t night.
But once he was determined even, she couldn't persuade him, and when something was about the kids? That was automatically happening.
it was in this way that she was now in a lab surrounded by sky people at two in the morning.
"Max, can you please say what does he have?" Jake asked Max; he was a doctor, and that was all she knew and needed to know when it comes to her boy.
"Do you want me to be honest? this is the most horrible tummy ache i ever saw, did his diet change?" he asked
"no, he didn't change diet, right 'Tiri?" Jake now asked her.
"no i always feed him milk and we are starting on the fruits" she responded back
"Then i don't really know" Max responded "Better if he stays with us for some time guys"
Neytiri's heart felt like it was begging stab, over and over again.
Her baby couldn't stay with her, and for what? She couldn't understand it, she must have been the worst mother ever.
"wait" a female doctor next to Max said "you didn't come to get the milk in the last few weeks, what milk have you gave him?" she asked Neytiri.
"mine" he responded quickly, and all the room felled into silent.
Jake eyes were open to their extremes, his tail was also still.
everyone in the room looked at Neytiri "what?" she asked.
"Neytiri, you can't give him your milk, is bad for him." Max told her.
"What do you mean?" she asked.
it took her all night to understand that Na'vi milk was bad for humans, it was maybe the most embarrassing conversation of her life, next to the one when her father and mother explained her how mating worked.
in the end, they got home, but without Spider that needed to do a gastric lavage or something like that, she didn't catch the name well. What she caught was the laugh Jake did when they got out of the lab.

Sorry if it's been asked before but the recent Sun family art brought to mind.
If Reader managed to settle with Mac instead, would they ever had a child or would they prefer a simple life just enjoying eachothers company?
i think it could go either way.
i like to imagine that, macaque in bad end, while being a somewhat-recovering villain, isn't as inherently messed up as bad end wukong. sure, he also committed murders and fought alongside the king, but he really cares for reader and wants to make her happy (within reason). he would defer to reader on whether or not they have any children; he wouldn't mind either way.
of course, if her happiness meant living away from him...for him that would just mean living in separate homes. he'd still look after her until the end (like in the modern bad end au). he'd become her shadow, in a sense. always there, but in a subtle, non-obtrusive way.
on another note, remember that post from a while back where i mentioned how after wukong kidnaps reader, he forces her to take an immortality elixir? well...
he's not the only one concerned with reader's mortality.
in this iteration, macaque would also want to ensure that reader doesn't die from old age. he wants to live out the rest of his life with her. and he's not entirely certain that the elixir worked, though reader hasn't shown any signs of aging. he wants to make sure that time or sickness won't be her undoing.
so... he decides to bring her a peach.
he leaves home for a while, "to gather supplies," he says. he brings it home to her in a basket of other fruits. he makes sure that she eats it. maybe even cuts it up and feeds it to her directly.
he knows he's being selfish.
but in that moment, he can't bring himself to care.

Kalim Al-Asim X Reader
HELLOOOO this is a part 2 of Reader and Kalim doing Henna on each other!
You can check out part 1 here: https://www.tumblr.com/skellywie/734141190790856704/uhmkalim-al-asim-x-reader-but-theyre-doing
YOUR TURN!!! >:DD
Kalim has seen henna being done before, he's sure that one of his siblings picked henna up as a hobby.
He'd ask to design your right hand first! And though he might be clumsy, he tries his best to make the designs look pretty for you.
As the henna came in contact for your skin, the first thing that came to mind was its coldness. The sensation felt a little tickly at first, and made your skin tingle, but you soon found it soothing. You couldn't help but smile at the intimacy between you and him.
"It's cold"
"Really?? Here, you can-" (he enthusiastically begins to take off his cardigan)
"I meant the henna!"
"Oh"
He sheepishly tugs his cardigan back on again, making a mental note that his attempt at a romantic gesture has failed. Awkwardly. BUT HE DOESN'T LET THAT DISTRACT HIM.
He designs a simple flower ring on your ring finger. The lines may look a little shaky and thick, but you could still tell what it was.
While drawing on the rest of your hand, he subconsciously has the tip of his tongue sticking out.
He has Jamil bring you snacks while you wait for him to complete the designs. A bowl of fresh grapes, some cut fruit, nuts, fancy stuff!!
As you snack on them, you decide hand feed some to Kalim too.
"Kalim?"
"Yes?"
He smiled as you called for him.
You pick a grape from the bowl and press at against his lips. He smiles against the grape and happily pops it in his mouth.
"Awwe!" he coos over you <33
You feed him a few more grapes before the bowl ends up empty. You wanted to feed him the last one, but He insists you eat it, and eventually, the poor grape ends up on the floor as the both of you kept shoving it against eachother. (He got someone to bring over 3 more bowls)
You comment on how pretty you think his designs look. (Praise him 🙏)
"*Is it nice? Do you like it??*"
After the henna dries, he'll kiss your knuckles and explain the meaning behind the designs. (Something you wished you could do, but you couldn't tell the messy blobs on his skin apart anymore because you were just bad at it 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️.)
"Someday, I'll put a real ring on your finger, just you wait!"
Reward him with little pecks and kisses all over his face!! He'd be all giddy, he's smiling from ear to ear, giggling and telling you to never ever stop ❤️

Wedding night head cannons with Gilbert Blythe and fem!reader?
Gilbert Blythe x Reader
[FLUFF]
- - -
when i say every single wedding plan went by you first before he confirmed, i mean every. single. one
"do you like these purple flowers?"
"is this cloth ok for the tables?"
"you're okay with all of Bash's family coming?"
you assured him it was as much his wedding as yours and that he could make his own choices
but he just wanted it to be absolutely perfect for the both of you
so if that meant running every idea by you, he would
you made sure that he didn't have even a slight inkling of what your dress looked like - just in case the superstition was right
because of this, you of course brought the girls to go dress shopping with you
they lived vicariously through you as they helped you pick out the perfect one
"oh Y/N, please try on another one!"
"Anne I've already tried on about 30!"
"look how perfect it is though. pleaseeee?"
you of course gave in and let the girls have their fun, dancing along with them when they decided to act out the wedding dances
taking Diana's hand you let her bring you across the floor, laughing as the other customers rolled their eyes at you
but you didn't care
you're only young once, and especially now being engaged you wanted to make the best of the time you have left as a young adult with your closest friends
Gilbert had insisted on you wearing his mother's wedding veil
he claimed that she had always wished to pass hers down to her daughter, or if not, then to at least see Gilbert's beloved wear it at his wedding
"I want you to have it - she'd be so happy to see somebody as beautiful as you carry on this veil's legacy"
you blushed immensly when he later mentioned that one day you could also pass it down to your daughters
now, as you stared at yourself in the mirror, your bridesmaids pampering you and making sure your trail was clean, and that your veil covered your face and hair accordingly, you couldn't believe the day was finally here
never did you imagine marrying Gilbert during your first interactions, but as time passed on and you developed a crush, this day was something you only wished for in dreams
and now it's real. and it's happening. and you're absolutely freaking out
as Anne and Ruby perfect your dress one last time, they go take their seats with the rest of the girls as they await your entrance
you were freaking out internally
but once the music began and the doors opened
and you made eye contact with your husband-to-be, all your worries dissolved into nothing as you now were overwhelmed with joy and love
your new chapter begins now
Gilbert's eyes watered as you trailed down the aisle, overjoyed at the sight of his fiancé in his mother's veil, wearing the most beautiful wedding dress he could ever imagine
when it was time for his vows, he tried everything in his power to not trip over his words
he was taken away by you and how ethereal you looked in your dress
and how it was finally time to guarantee the rest of your lives together
Gilbert - always a romantic - picked you up as soon as you kissed at the alter, walking you out of the building bridal style as flowers and cheers were thrown your way
it really was a night to remember
the cake that was made for you was kept as a surprise
so when the reception came and Marilla and Anne walked out with the cake you were enthralled
he made it your favorite colour, topped with fruit and leaves (per Anne's decor decisions)
it was gorgeous
and it tasted even better as you two cut the first slice together, feeding it to eachother and getting icing all over your faces
the rest of the night was filled with laughter and dance as you celebrated your new marriage
your first dance as bride and groom was everything you could've hoped for
his eyes were glued to you as he sweeped you across the floor, all eyes on the both of you
but neither of you noticed as you were entranced with eachother
everybody else in the room dissappeared and it was just you two, Mr and Mrs Blythe, dancing away
once you two were driven away in your carriages, with you throwing your bouquet over your shoulder (to which Ruby desperately caught), you held hands, finally able to be as affectionate as you want
married life carries a new and different perspective to your lives
but I'm not goin to lie, arriving to the Blythe residence at last, with the stars and moon shining bright above your faces, you felt both relieved and sort of scared
this was going to be your first night awah from home, in a house you've never slept in before, with people you're not used to being around (i.e Bash and Mary)
of course you loved them all, but it was different, and the thought terrified you
especially with the implications that you had to consumate your marriage after the wedding
that was something that had slipped your mind up until the moment Gilbert opened the door for you to walk inside his - your - home
but instead of doing anything of the sort, Gilbert showed you to your room
"would you like to sleep in your own bed tonight?" he asked
you weren't sure
maybe being alone scared you more than the thought of finally "sealing your marriage" (which you thought was bullshit. your marriage was sealed as soon as your vows were made)
you shook your head and Gilbert gently took your hand in his and brought you to his room
he quickly noticed your discomfort and he assured you that you didn't have to do anything you didn't want to
"honestly I don't think I'm ready yet either" he admitted
so instead, he helped you change out of your many layers of clothing, untying your corset and leaving you a spare pair of sleeping clothes on the bed as he left the room to go fetch two cups of tea
leaving the bedroom you found Gilbert cuddled onto the couch, with a blanket and tea awaiting you
the rest of the night was filled with recountings of the wedding as you laughed and sat next to the warm fireplace
at this moment you knew this marriage was going to be one of companionship and understanding
you had not felt uncomfortable the whole night, and as your head rested on Gilbert's shoulder, you felt more at home than ever
"you have made me the happiest man - I can't wait to spend forever with you"
all your previous worries died out as you fell asleep in his arms, empty cup fallen to the side
Bash and Mary came home in the morning only to find you two intertwined with eachother, fireplace now empty, and two empty cups rolled onto the carpet

dam the angst poly!gayatrixpavitrxreader fic was so good it broke me man :( /pos
Maybe some fluff time? please? Like they do stuff for their first anniversary? Maybe the reader wants to surprise them but they find out that all of them individually had a surprise for the other two? i think that would be nice :)
Thank u and have a great day! :)))
𝙃𝙤𝙥𝙚𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙨 (𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙙) 𝙧𝙤𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙨
Tumblr media
Cw: fluff, poly!gn!reader x Pavitr Prabhakar x Gayatri Singh,
Notes: a little break from the yandere stuff, I hope you like it!
>If we're following the tricycle storyline, Pavitr and Gayatri technically have their anniversary before, but none of them want to celebrate it that way, they weren't really happy since they were crushing on you and feeling guilty about it
>They still remember it and give little presents to eachother, but nothing too big, Pavitr calls it a "pre-versary" and he has one for you too, it's the day you bumped into him in the hallway, but you don't remember it and just assume is a little gift without much meaning (just a nice thing to do y'know)
>Pavitr isn't great at keeping secrets when it comes to the most important people in his life, but he's determined to keep your anniversary a surprise
>But so is Gayatri, and so are you
>Which leads to incredibly awkward exchanges
>"You said you'd be at the park, but I passed on my way to the bus stop, and I didn't see you" you asked
>"I was at the other side, near the pond. Feeding ducks" Gayatri sounded oddly serious about it
>"There's ducks now?" You excitedly questioned
>"Yes, it's very recent..."
>Gayatri had to create a community plan and run it through the city hall to have ducks at the park so you didn't suspected, at least you and Pav were happy about it. Pav got extremely attached to one of the ducks and now you have to visit them every week or he cries
>This has been going on for at least three months, And you're pretty sure you've been seduced to ignore certain things
>"Pav why were you- he cut you off, a finger to your lips and another hand gently holding your chin so you look up to his deep set eyes, he kisses you softly, leaving you dumbfounded and uninterested in whatever you were about to ask
>Since it's your first anniversary, you are still in highschool, making things even more complicated
>You stayed after school and stole their locker keys (for a good reason), and spent the whole afternoon stuffing flowers in their lockers so that they'd be showered in petals when they open them
>You were practically unable to sleep that night, you planned the whole day to surprise them, the fanciest dinner a high school student could afford, heartfelt long letters, and trinkets here and there that you knew they'd like, you were also really excited to see what they got for you
>But you woke up to anything but a happy anniversary
>First thing in the morning and you heard ruckus coming from a few blocks
>You looked through your window and see a weird looking villain of the week
>"Ah, spiderman will handle it, it doesn't matter" you said calmly until you remembered "wait- Spiderman's my boyfriend"
>You get dressed in a rush, grab a fruit and start running/biking to the center of whatever's going on, you know Pavitr wouldn't want you there, but you can't help it
>You're horrified when you see Gayatri tied up to some sort of machine, she wiggles around to try and free herself
>You get to the building without catching Pavitr's attention and start running the lots of stairs it takes to reach the rooftop
>As you're finally get to it, climbing the firescape ladder (I hope you know what I'm referring to)
>"Jaanu! You're not-" he uses his webs to stick the villain to the wall "You're not supposed to be here"
>"What do you mean? I already kidnapped your girlfriend, who's this?!" The villain said, he had a green enlarged head looking like a skull
>"For such a big head you're pretty close minded you know?" Pavitr said, he triumphantly swinged to the rooftop as he left the webbed up villain to the police
>You ended up recurring to your teeth to break the rope with odd materials holding your girlfriend captive
>"sweetie! Thank you, thank you, but you shouldn't have come in here!" Gayatri said between kisses and hugs
>Pavitr joined the hug and apologized for everything, of course you told him it wasn't his fault
>"Happy anniversary, I guess" you smiled
>Gayatri started looking in her pockets and found the three lockets she got for you "I'm so lucky they didn't fell off" the gold heart shaped lockets had a photo of you three you took on a photo booth almost a year ago
>Maybe it wasn't like you planned, like any of you planned, but it was a good day, any day you spend with them is beautiful in its own ways, and you hope you can keep having days like these (maybe with a little less kidnapping) for the rest of your life

It was a quiet night in the Snake Champers, as some snakes were doing night watch duty. It was normal for them to have snakes be forming groups of what group does what task, and such a group was formed for night watch duty as well.
2 Of such snakes were passing by the doors of non other then our lovely master of snakes, Snake Fruit Cookie, but it wasnt their usual bedroom the snakes would slither by. It was their nursery, where they will go and stay when they were regressed, it helps them feel small and safe with its warm colors.
Despite this our little regressor still isnt immune from having nightmreslike thier big self and this night was one of them. As the snakes passed one of their would hear muffled sobbing as they paused the other one by raising their hand to the way the other was gonna go.
"do you hear that?" the one stoping the other asked as they looked at the door
"…oh dear, our master is having nightmares again" said the other one
the 2 would go near the door as they heared more muffled crys coming from it, soon one of them opened the door slowly, to avoid any creacking coming in. as they slitherd in they would be in the nursery, that was filled with warm colors, snake motives and a heat lamp build for warmth. the 2 would look at the big crib where the crying came, wich made them more alarmed.
As they approached the crib, they looked down to see a crying little, burying their face in a pillow as they held their big long rattle snake plus, Ratty. the snakes would look at eachother before not looking into the poor baby as one of them rubbed their back. "There there master... the nightmare is no more" The little Hatchling would look up at the 2 snakes before turning to them with tears in their eyes as arms put nhigh to reach the 2. "Sssnakey...!" "Dont be Scared little one, the nigthmare is over" the first one said as they scooped up the little hatchie as they would immediately hug them before not whining again. the snake would stroke their head as they help them by their arm, cradling them as the other one picked up a feeding bottle from the crib. "ill go fill up the bottle with some warm milk, you can confort them while im absent" "of course, but be quick, we mite wake up some of our comrades" the second snake nodded before not going back to the door leaving the first snake and the little hatchling alone. As they looked at their crying Hatchie thes would brush off thier tears as they rocking them. "shhhh shhhh... no more tears, your safe now..." The snake would pick of their big rattle snake plush as they started to shake it, grabbing the hatchlings attention. The little would look as they had their plush shaken, producing rattle sounds which Snake Fruit loved, the baby would now fund intself calming down as they reached for the plush that the big snake gave them.
Snake Fruit would then just shake their plushy as they started to form a smile on thier face, in which the the snake was reliefed in seeing. now cradling the baby with both of thier arms they bob them a bit as they saw the hatchie shake thier plushie rapidly "there! theres that smile our master is known for!" They said in a cheery tone making the baby giggle as they held their big plushy near them, then they would get thier tummy tickled by their big caregiver as they laughed, before the other snake didint come in the nursery again. "got the milk, this time ive put some honey in it" "very well, ive managed to calm down our little bundle here, had Ratty help me with it" "awwww, how adorable!" The hatchie giggled as they mentioned their plush like it was one of them, before the the first snake having gotten the bottle from the other, presenting it to their master. Quickly they started to suckle the bottle of milk, enjoying every second of them being held by their care givers arms. Soon they drank up all the milk from the bottle, as the snakes got the bottle away they one holding the snake baby put them on thier shoulder as tapped ther back a bit, as quick burps would come out from thier hatchling. Now putting them back in their arms the baby was much more sleepy, having a smile on thier face as they held their plush frined closely "look at you... so adorable, are you ready to take a nap again?" The baby nodded as their eyes felt heavier, snuggling in the snakes grasp. the 2 would not put the baby in the crib, still having the heat lamp on and ready for the night, to make sure Snake Fruit was warm. Ones tucked in bed with many of their plushies, they snakes looked down at the crib one more time "would you like something before we go your Highness?"
Asked the other snake as the little rubbed their eyes and looked at them both "....music box...!" "alright, we will set it up next to you, alright?" The baby nodded as they got out a small music box from the drawers placing it on a nightstand, next to their crib. When they opened it, it played a night soothing melody for snake to drift of to sleep. But before the 2 could go they had to greed their hatchling goodnight.
"sweet dreams your highness, we cherish you with all out hearts" "goodnight master Snake Fruit" "night night...!" The hatchling said as they giggled before not snuggling in with thier plushies, prompting the 2 to now leave the nursery as they looked in one last time to check. When the doors closed, all was heard was the msic box as the little hatchie drifted to a much peaceful dream.

Mama and Mick are so outdoorsy! Can totally see them hiking even when mama is pregnant with Rora and then Sebastian, and the littles following them after! Imagine them in those little carriers for hiking when they're really small and get tired easily!
"Do you have everything we need?", you asked Mick, grabbing your backpack from the car's boot and putting it on your back while your husband did the same with his, "yes, all packed and ready to go!", he smiled, "are you?", he asked, taking your hand and locking the car, heading up the way you were meant to.
Staying active while pregnant was something you tried to keep up with, despite not doing nearly as much as you used to, but grateful nonetheless that your body allowed you to do the activities you liked while also growing your baby girl and providing a safe place for her, "do you want to stop for a bit?", Mick asked, seeing some benches on the side of the path, "no, I'm good, it's just a little more to the top, right?", you checked, feeling like you were still fine. Still, Mick stood behind you, ready and alert in case something happened and you needed him.
Reaching the top of the first section, you left your backpack on the picnic table, taking in the view and enjoying the breeze on your warm skin, "it's so beautiful", you whispered, "every time we come here it becomes even more beautiful", you looked at your husband, holding his hand so you could hug him, feeling his other hand travel to your bump and caressing the exposed skin since your shorts and sports bra only covered so much of your growing bump, "Rora seems excited too, can't wait to bring her here one day", he smiled, kissing your forehead.
.
"Mama, look! Is that where we are going?", Aurora pointed out, making you look at where she was pointing after you made sure your boy was fastened in his seat, "are you good, Seb?", you asked him, "yes, mama! Let's go!", he giggled, "yes, my love. Me and mama used to go up there a lot when you and Seb weren't here yet", Mick explained, strapping in his own baby carrier for Aurora, knowing that sooner or later he too would be carrying her around just like you were doing with Sebastian.
You had been walking for a little bit when Sebastian called for you, "Can I have a snack, please? I'm hungry", he said, and you could hear the pout in voice as you quickly reached the side pocket and gave him a small bag of chopped fruit, "thanks mama! Here, take one for you!", he handed over, "Rora! Papa! I have some snacks, do you want some?", he waved the bag at his sister who stopped at the mention of food, "but your bag is for you, I'd you share with me, you won't eat as much", your daughter reasoned, allowing you to stop so you could all rest a little, "it's okay, I don't mind", you sweet boy said and you melted into goo.
Helping the kids with snacks, Mick handed you your bottle of water, "they're so cute together, we got very lucky with them", Mick told you, pushing you to lean againt him, "we did, they're the best siblings for eachother", you smiled back, "you know, I've been thinking about a third one", Mick gulped, catching your attention, "I know it's not just like that, but look at them. They are such sweethearts and I think we did really good", he added, "I'll think about your case, Mr. Schumacher", you winked at him, walking up to Aurora to see the bird she and Sebastian were trying to feed, "I think he's afraid of us, but we have food. How is that possible? Angie always comes to us when she sees we have food!".
(Thank you for submitting an ask 🤍)
