His favorite word : "I'M NOT A BABY! I'M GROWN UP NOW!!" (but still eats gummy bear)
NETFLIX (and chill lol no) date! Since Yangyang is an introvert, he doesn't really like to go out. He prefer laying on the sofa or bed rather than do a walk etc. So you guys usually enjoy watching netflix together, you lean on his chest cuddling each other, playing with your hair, or sometimes tickles you when he got bored with the movie/drama. Sometimes if he's too tired, he will sleep while hugging you until tomorrow
Sending. Selcas. To. You. Everday. Everywhere. (if you subs to his bubble, you'll know). I mean he likes to send some random selcas for you, like him with louis/leon/bella, when he wears a new hoodie, or even sending funny videos of him dancing to some random songs alone or with Hendery (yeah they're having fun with it)
Kinda "tsundere" boy. He feels like saying "I love you" is kinda cringe, but actually he really loves you. He shows it with act, not words
What he calls you : darling, pretty, sexy

Hi,i’m a caucasian girl and goes by she/her,bisexual,i’m 5’6 and average weight with straight dark brown hair.I’m a homebody and get panicked around loud noises.My love language is touch.I can be quite intelligent as well.I’m a gemini and a slytherin.I love to watch movies.i listen to anything except country.my parents are divorced and i had a brother who i lost recently.My family tree is very small aswell.i’m allergic to dairy and love to cook. Maybe shipped with marvel,harry potter,twilight❤️
MARVEL
Tumblr media
I ship you with Peter Parker!
Peter wouldn’t actually have minded social settings if he hadn’t been so awfully bad at social interaction, but he has no problem with staying home with you. 
On week-days, you go with each other home to study together pretty much every day, sometimes alone, and sometimes with Ned, When you’re alone, you usually hang out in your bedrooms where you’ve got easier access to each other through touch. You’ll lay on top of each other and have your limbs tangled together in all kinds of ways while you focus on your separate homework, sharing small smiles and looks every once in a while. When Ned is with you, you’ll usually set up a study group in the kitchen so he doesn’t have to feel left out, and so that you have the fridge close by since the constant chatter always seems to make you hungry. 
Every Saturday you have movie nights with Peter, preferably with a theme that you’ll decide your clothes, movies, and snacks according to. On the first movie night you ever had, Peter brought the movies “Walk the Line” and “I Saw The Light”. He learned from his mistake. 
Sometimes you invite Ned to join you, but when that happens you rarely get any actual movie-watching done but rather just talk through the entire movie. When he sometimes gets too loud, Peter just smiles at you and asks him to go get a refill of popcorn in the kitchen so that you can get some peace and quiet, and also some cuddling in to survive the rest of the night.
When the boys are building some new Lego-project you tend to get involved too, and at least once every time, your inner Slytherin really comes out when you and Ned disagree on which part goes where - leaving Peter to try to get in the middle before it gets too out of hand. 
Both you and Peter show love through physical touch so you hold hands wherever you go, and I mean wherever. Always. When your relationship was still kinda fresh, Ned pointed out one time that he felt left out, and made a sarcastic comment that you should just glue your hands together. As a response, Peter took his hand, too. After that, he never complained again and just let you do your thing.
Aunt May definitely adores you from day one and once you start coming over to their place frequently, she stocks up on dairy-free products so you can eat whenever you want without having to worry.
You’ll help May with dinner when she’s home and when she’s not, Peter usually just stands by in an awkward manner while you do the cooking, handing you things at the speed of lightning before you’ve even gotten the chance to speak the whole word when asking for something, and peeping over your shoulder to see what you’re doing at all times. 
He did try to get more involved with the actual cooking once and it didn’t go very well, so he tries to watch your every move in order to learn, because he really wants to impress you. 
You help each other through your losses and family situations and you’re just generally good together, and good for each other. That boy would love you to absolute pieces and go to the end of the world just to see you happy.
HARRY POTTER
Tumblr media
I ship you with George Weasley!
Fred and George are known to be big tricksters with little to no actual respect for their surroundings. If they want to play a prank on someone, they will - they don’t care if someone tells them no.
However, George has always been the more set-back, sympathetic, and down-to-earth twin. He does go along with all of the pranks and troublemaking that Fred initiates, but he has a bit more sense of when enough is enough and is just generally a bit better at reading the room than his twin is, and always respects when loud noises get too much for you and it’s time to stop. 
Does he love playing pranks and running around getting into trouble? Oh, yeah. It’s basically both his and Fred’s entire personality. But you do a good job at keeping him grounded and give him just the amount of calm that he needs to balance out his otherwise wild personality. 
Contrary to what one would believe because of said personality, he loves being alone with you and is basically turned into another person when you’re laying in bed, him with his head on your chest and your fingers in his hair.
And it goes both ways. He would be soooo loving and tender with you, looking after you every second you spent together, making sure you’re never uncomfortable by whispering in your ear asking how you’re doing, if you want to go somewhere else when you’re in loud places, and sneaking in a few cheeky jokes here and there to get you to laugh. He’d always be trying to make you laugh. 
People in his inner circle might have been a bit wary to a start since you’re a Slytherin - especially Fred - but they learn pretty quickly that you’re good to and for him and George would just be completely whipped for you. You could get him to do anything with one single smile - even his schoolwork, much to his own dismay. 
You’d make him very happy, keep him grounded and Molly would love you both in general and for providing at least one of her trickster-sons with some peacefulness. 
TWILIGHT
Tumblr media
I ship you with Leah Clearwater!
Leah is, just like you, a very big homebody. She hates going out and socializing and the fact that you’re sensitive to loud noises gives her the perfect excuse to be able to get out of going to rowdy parties without being accused of being a bore by the boys.
Just like with Peter, you and Leah would also be able to relate to losses and broken-up families and I feel like you’d just provide each other the best kind of support. 
She’s generally kind of a quiet person, doesn’t really talk nor open up much to anyone, not even family, but I feel like she’d be a lot more open with you because I really think she’d be completely comfortable and not have to pretend to be someone she’s not. 
Sue would absolutely adore you for giving Leah an outlet like no one has succeeded in before, as would Sam and Emily because all they’ve ever wanted is to see Leah happy. 
Seth would just adore you in general from day one, but he’d especially love your cooking. Leah would probably have to pry the excited pup away from you every time you came over and most likely, knowing her, get a bit jealous if you spent too much time with her family because she’d want you to herself as much as she could - preferably every hour of the day. 
(I really hope you like these, that they were what you were looking for and I’m so sorry for your loss😔💔 I lost my brother, too, three years ago so if you ever need to talk, I’m only a message away. Lots of love💕)

(Planning the Day) To Meet You
Wangxian, Modern AU, Slow Burn, E-Rated
[READ ON AO3]
Chapter 2
  Tuesday, First Day with Wei Wuxian
The books Wei Wuxian has spread out over the table are all about veterinary medicine. Lan Wangji pictures Wei Wuxian working as a vet and the image of Wei Wuxian holding up a bunny to his face makes his heart skip a beat. He wants to ask Wei Wuxian whether he’s actually studying to become a vet to confirm his daydream, but he doesn’t.
As soon as Lan Wangi closes his laptop, because it is time for lunch (and it is already later than usual because he’s been having an argument with himself about whether he should ask Wei Wuxian to join him), Wei Wuxian rushes to give him back his pen, stuffs his books haphazardly into his bag (Lan Wangji cringes) and then stands up to leave, before Lan Wangji gets the chance to say anything.
“You’re so right, Lan Zhan, it is time to go. I already stayed longer than planned. Thank you for sharing your pen and your table with me!”
Lan Wangji can only nod and watch as he leaves.
He had hoped saying “I’m going to have lunch outside” would have prompted Wei Wuxian to invite himself, but now he missed his chance to test this theory. He wonders whether he’ll ever see Wei Wuxian again.
The pen is still warm in his hand.
Lan Wangji arrives at his usual time. He tries not to expect anything. It is a rare occasion that anyone approaches his table, so waiting for the same person to appear twice is a hopeless endeavour. Yet he catches himself looking up any time he hears the slightest noise, hoping it will turn into footsteps approaching.
Foolish.
No matter how hard he tries, his concentration stays elusive today. He has to read the chapter on “Music in the Tang Dynasty: Foreign Influences” three times before it registers in his brain and by then he has forgotten what information he was looking for and has to start all over again. Maybe this is a sign that he should not include it in his paper; he should be trying to narrow down his topic anyway, not be adding more to it. “Music And Poetry of the Tang Dynasty” is indeed way too broad a topic for a 20-page research paper. So far, Lan Wangji has read 16 books and filled 35 pages with notes. And now, when he needs his brain the most, it abandons him.
Wei Wuxian arrives at 11:25 a.m. and distracts Lan Wangji from his inner struggle. Wei Wuxian seems almost surprised to see Lan Wangji and for a while he just stands and stares at him, blinking. He appears to have no books with him today.
“Lan Zhan, you’re here again! Ah, I didn’t really think you would be, haha. Well, I’m just… just wanted to say hello, I suppose.”
“Hello.”
Wei Wuxian shakes his head then, as if to clear his mind, laughs, comes closer and leans against the table, basically sitting on it. Lan Wangji has to tip his head back a little to look into Wei Wuxian’s face and it is like staring straight into the sun.
“Are you here often then?"
“Not Sunday.”
“... soooo, you’re here every day but Sunday?”
“Mn.”
“I see! How nice, Lan Zhan, you’re such a diligent student, your professors must like you a lot. You probably don’t get scolded like me, haha. Well, I suppose I’ll see you around then. Tomorrow? What day is it tomorrow? Let me think, today Wen Ning made congee for breakfast, which means it is Wednesday... okay, I will meet you tomorrow! Thursday!”
“Mn.”
Tomorrow. Wei Wuxian will meet him tomorrow. He’ll be here, because Lan Wangji is here.
Lan Wangji only sees Wei Wuxian for five minutes today, but he is in a good mood for the rest of the day.
Apparently it shows on his face, because his brother mentions it during dinner. Lan Wangji doesn’t say more except that he had a good day at the library, which is not a lie. Xichen smiles and nods in the way he does, whenever he knows that Wangji isn’t telling him everything, but he won’t push. He never pushes.
Only when he is lying in bed, almost falling asleep, does a tiny, niggling worry appear at the back of his mind. Who is Wen Ning? Why is he cooking for Wei Wuxian? Friend? Flatmate? Cousin? Boyfriend? He is glad that Wei Wuxian gets proper meals one way or another and is not just simply eating prawn chips all day. But…
Maybe Xichen is right. Maybe his life is boring and lonely after all if his thoughts are so easily taken over by a stranger, simply because they keep smiling at him.
Thursday, Third Day with Wei Wuxian
Wei Wuxian shows up at 10:30 a.m. Today, he brought books but this time, as far as Lan Wangji can tell, they’re mostly about Hong Kong Cinema. Alright. Interesting.
Lan Wangji cannot muster the nerve to ask him whether he wants to have lunch together, but he also doesn’t want Wei Wuxian to get up and leave as soon as he closes his laptop again, so he… ignores his hungry stomach and keeps working.
Wei Wuxian leaves at 12:30 p.m. Lan Wangji thus has a very late lunch. His stomach is not happy but the rest of him is.
When he leaves the library at 4:30 p.m., someone calls his name as he walks by the lawn in front of the university. This is unprecedented. He whips his head around to see Wei Wuxian among the frolicking students, sitting next to… Nie Huaisang? He does not know what to do with the information that someone he knows also knows Wei Wuxian. At least that means that Wei Wuxian is not just a creation of his mind, but a real, wonderful person.
Wei Wuxian is wearing shorts and flip flops, and Lan Wangji’s brain insists that this is something he should take note of. He tries to argue with his brain that surely Wei Wuxian must have been wearing the same thing this morning and it hadn’t been a problem then, but his brain once again refuses to listen. Wei Wuxian has his hair in a high ponytail instead of a bun, stray hairs escaping still and his legs are crossed and bare and he looks carefree and is waving at Lan Wangji as though he’s happy to see him.
“Lan Wangji! Lan Zhan!”
Lan Wangji slowly approaches them, sees Nie Huaisang looking from Wei Wuxian to Lan Wangji with undisguised curiosity - undoubtedly wondering how and why he calls him ‘Lan Zhan’ - and then stands next to them, giving a curt nod as a greeting.
“Nice to see you, Lan Wangji. It’s been a while.”
“Likewise, Nie Huaisang.”
“You two know each other? Huaisang, how can you know someone like Lan Zhan and not tell me? Were you keeping him to yourself? How rude, how rude! Lan Zhan, come sit down and enjoy the sun with us!”
Lan Wangji does not sit down on the grass. It is not something he does; also he’s wearing white trousers. Wei Wuxian pouts while Nie Huaisang stares at him as though he has lost his mind for asking Lan Wangji to sit with them.
Despite feeling a bit stuffy in his clothes ever since he left the air-conditioned library, he now feels a cold chill run up his spine. Unrooted anxiety squeezes his heart and he nods again, turns around and briskly leaves, ignoring Wei Wuxian’s concerned “Lan Zhan? Are you okay?” and Nie Huaisang’s “I can’t believe you know Lan Wangji, call him Lan Zhan and just asked him to sit down on the grass” . He does not hear Wei Wuxian’s reply.
Friday, Fourth Day with Wei Wuxian
Despite Lan Wangji’s worries that he hopelessly embarrassed himself yesterday, Wei Wuxian shows up again at 10:30 a.m. and does not mention anything, nor does he act any differently.
This time, he brings only one book. “Equine Anatomy”. And then he begins to… draw. Really well. Lan Wangji has given up on trying to deduce what Wei Wuxian studies. Maybe he’s not a student at all, maybe he just sneaks into the library to read books on any topic that catches his eye. Whatever the reason, he is glad that Wei Wuxian spends time here, at this table.
At 11:30 a.m. Lan Wangji loudly declares “Lunch”, closes his laptop, stands up, and stares at Wei Wuxian for almost 20 seconds until he recognizes it for the invitation it was.
Lan Wangji eats his carefully cut up and packed vegetables and fruits and drinks his green tea. Wei Wuxian eats his prawn chips and drinks a coffee that he got from the frankly sketchy looking vending machine in the foyer of the library. Lan Wangji has never seen anyone else use it and is sure that it’s more likely to give you lasting bowel issues than to provide you with a tasty beverage. Wei Wuxian takes one sip and then says “Disgusting. Just what I need right now.”
Lan Wangji learns a lot about Wei Wuxian during lunch, because now there is no “no talking in the library” to hold him back and Lan Wangji is gifted with almost twenty minutes of Uninterrupted Wei Wuxian Talking Time.
Things he learns about Wei Wuxian during these twenty minutes:
Wei Wuxian studies Computer Sciences. Lan Wangji has trouble making sense of that, after the hodgepodge of books Wei Wuxian has been reading. He has yet to see Wei Wuxian with anything resembling a computer.
Wei Wuxian is 24, just like Lan Wangji. But he’s still busy with his BA, because he had to take a break last year for reasons Lan Wangji doesn’t know yet.
Wei Wuxian moves his hands a lot when he’s talking. Lan Wangji has to move his head a few times so he doesn’t get hit in the face.
Nie Huaisang and Wei Wuxian know each other from school. Apparently they used to call each other the The Three Drunken Masters (they were really into Jackie Chan movies back then) and ‘Jiang Cheng’ was also a part of that. As soon as he says that name, Wei Wuxian’s face, that is always so very expressive, turns blank, as though he’s very consciously trying not to show any emotion.
Twenty minutes of Uninterrupted Wei Wuxian Talking Time is not enough.
Saturday, Wei Wuxian-less
Wei Wuxian does not come to the library on the weekend. He had told Lan Wangji this. Lan Wangji still finds himself disappointed.
He spends a lot of time not thinking about his paper and instead thinking about Monday.
Sunday, Wei Wuxian-less
It is a Sunday and Lan Wangji’s inner peace is in serious trouble. No matter what he does, all his thoughts are drawn to Wei Wuxian. It is as though Wei Wuxian visited his flat while he was asleep and left his traces everywhere. Sweetness that lingers in the air and enters his mind with every breath.
While he makes breakfast, he wonders how Wei Wuxian might eat his. Does he eat breakfast at all or does he skip it? Does he eat congee every day or only when ‘Wen Ning’ makes it for him? Perhaps he’s the type to only drink coffee. He frowns at the thought. Lan Wangji does not have a coffee maker. Maybe it is time to buy one. Then he frowns again when he realises what he is doing here. There is no reason to assume that Wei Wuxian would ever share breakfast with him, especially not here, in his flat.
He decides to distract himself with reading and grabs the first book that catches his eye. It turns out to be a collection of love poetry that Nie Huaisang had given him once because “I would never dare to give you porn, so this is the next best thing”. Lan Wangji had long given up on understanding Huaisang’s logic and just accepted the gift instead of arguing.
He reads the first few poems with burning ears and realises quickly that this is… not the euphemism-heavy fare he’s expected. The verses are brimming with melancholy and speak of separation and longing. Of lovers that parted, lovers that never were.
Not… a good distraction.
He slams the book shut, forgets all about good posture and lets himself fall against the back of his couch, basically slouching, and stares at the ceiling.
Frustration mounts in him that apparently he has built his peace and happiness on such a fragile foundation that everything collapses as soon as he is slightly shaken.
Wei Wuxian hasn’t even done anything. All he did was sit down at his table, talk and smile, instead of turning around and walking away at the first sight of Lan Wangji’s frown. Has he really been lonely all this time and is now retroactively having a crisis about it, because he was finally made aware of it?
He’s always been aware of the fact that there’s one corner of his heart that has been cold and deserted ever since his mother died. No matter how much warmth he’d found in his brother’s smile, in a soft bunny paw on his hand, in bringing order to the chaos of history… It had never reached this furthest corner of his heart.
How could it be possible that he’d find it in this stranger from the library?
Wei Wuxian. Wei Wuxian. Wei Ying. Wei Wuxian.
Lan Wangji goes to the gym and tries to outrun his thoughts on the treadmill. He mostly succeeds.
Monday, Fifth Day with Wei Ying
Lan Wangji wakes up with a hard cock and an itchy heart. A dream, there was a dream… he tries to recall, but the morning sun chases all remains of the night away and the dream dissipates with them.
He decides to postpone his morning exercise until the evening and takes a shower to take care of himself. Even in this, Lan Wangji has a routine, knows how to satisfy himself in five minutes or less.
He takes himself in hand and quickly strokes himself to hardness, focusing on how he feels , instead of getting lost in specific images or fantasies.
Except this time, it’s not enough. His heart still itches with… something. He grips his cock harder, lavishes extra attention on the sensitive head, twists his hand on every other upstroke… There’s still something missing.
Then, a thought. “What if it was someone else’s hand.”
Then. “What if it was Wei Wuxian’s hand.”
Then. “What if Wei Ying was with me in the shower.”
Ah, he can imagine it so well, so easily.
Wei Ying naked, pressed against Lan Wangji’s back, his arms holding him, one hand splayed over his chest, one hand stroking his cock. He’d be just tall enough to whisper into Lan Wangji’s ear, breath hot against his skin.
“Mhm, Lan Zhan, look at you. So hard in my hand… you’re already close and we’ve barely just begun. So impatient. Lan Zhan, pretty Lan Zhan, this is all just for me, isn’t it?”
“Only for Wei Ying.”
Wei Ying strokes him faster, teasingly dips a finger into his slit and then squeezes, just how he likes it. Hot pleasure travels up his spine, coils deep in his stomach. Lan Wangji lets Wei Ying take over, lets him do whatever he wants.
He feels Wei Ying press kisses against his shoulder, his fingers playing with his cock as freely as with his pen.
It feels so good, Wei Ying feels so good and he wants…
Lan Wangji has Wei Ying pressed against the wall and he’s kissing him, kissing his lips, his neck, that collarbone and Wei Ying is laughing, loud and carefree and…
Lan Wangji comes so hard that he slips and only barely avoids falling and suffering a head injury that would be really difficult to explain.
Pressing his head against the cool tiles, he closes his eyes and breathes hard until he comes back to himself.
He cleans himself (and also has to clean the shower door, he’s embarrassed to notice), finishes his bathroom routine, gets dressed and then stares at himself in the mirror.
Fuck.
His heart is not itchy anymore but now it’s filled with dread. He feels as though… It’s not guilt, not exactly but he feels as though he has crossed boundaries that he only realised existed, once he’s looking back. It is one thing to fantasize about someone he finds attractive… but Lan Wangji went beyond that, didn’t he? He put words into Wei Wuxian’s mouth, words he’d never say but that he wants to hear and…
It is not a thing he can ask permission for, the thought alone makes him anxious… “Wei Wuxian, I would like to pleasure myself to thoughts of you and in my fantasies you talk a lot and you’re my boyfriend because casual sex is not appealing to me. Do I have your approval? Also, what do you eat for breakfast, I really want to know.”
No.
He wants to stay home today and hide under his blanket, because he’s sure that people will look at his face and know.
However, his wish to see Wei Ying… Wei Wuxian … is larger than his not-quite-guilt.
If Wei Wuxian was successful in reading his face and now knows his indecent shower secrets, he does not mention it. They spend their time at the library as usual. Lan Wangji marvels at this thought - now it is their time and they have a rhythm . (Wei Wuxian’s choice of reading today is: Artificial Intelligence. The first thing that could actually have something to do with Computer Sciences. No computer in sight yet.)
He tries to not think about this morning and hopes he’s able to find a good medium between Not Looking At Wei Wuxian Because He’ll Know and Looking At Wei Wuxian A Lot Because He Is Beautiful.
When Wei Wuxian leaves shortly after lunch, he feels exhausted. Lan Wangji never takes naps, Lans do not nap (one of Lan Qiren’s weirder rules, he’d been very strict about it nonetheless) but he could really use one right now.
Fuck.
Fuck.

Good Person
Basically: he was a bad person from the moment he was born.
Warning: child abuse all over. Don’t read if that makes you uncomfortable.
Soooo, this took forever to make because I have like five different fic ideas but I have yet to finish them. I miss summer already.
-<>-<>-<>-<>-
From the moment he was born he was a bad person. He wasn’t supposed to be the way he was. He shouldn’t have existed. Tradition said that he should’ve been killed, but his father decided to spare his life. Could that be considered a mercy?
In order to keep him safe, his father had him live with his birth mother. Well, his birth mother and her husband. Neither liked him, but the king himself had demanded it. They were to raise him until he could live on his own and no one was to know of his true heritage. Not even him.
The king, his father, should have been more specific. They raised him, they raised him to know how to clean up his messes, the red splatters that covered most things was always his fault. They raised him to fear the loud shouts of people. They raised him to never feel safe with the touch of another, despite how much he might crave it. They raised him to hate the company of others, others meant bad things, others were never good.
He was eight when they decided he could live on his own. They had taken him to a nearby market and as he was looking at the many trinkets, they left him. He looked for hours, he had no luck in finding them.
He returned to an empty house, no clue of where they went. He sat in the house for the next few days, relying on the few scraps left. Far too soon he ran out of food.
If he was a good person they wouldn’t have left. They wouldn’t have hated them.
He tried his hand at stealing not too long after. It wasn’t that different from sneaking a thing or two from home. He was a natural. As time went past he grew cocky and decided to steal an entire loaf of bread.
There were shouts and threats and running. Knights came from all over, chasing him. He jumped, rolled, hid, and ran in order to get away from the dreaded knights.
As he was running he looked behind himself to see if the knights were still following.
That was a mistake.
He ran into a man and dropped his bread. The man instinctively grabbed onto him. He violently tried to escape the man’s grasp.
“Wow wow wow. Wait a moment.” The man tried to tell him.
But he wasn’t listening. He couldn’t stay in one place too long, he would get caught and they would put him in jail. Or maybe they would kill him, his parents had said that he should’ve been killed when he was first born.
There weren’t faint yells from behind him. The knights.
He started thrashing violently. He needed to go, now. Stuttering, he said, “I..I...I need...nee...need t..to g..go.”
The man who was still grabbing his arms, looked to where the shouts were coming from. “You running?”
He made no reply.
The man nodded nonetheless. “Come on.”
The man dragged him around houses until they made it to a nearby forest. He didn’t try to fight the man, there was no point. He obviously couldn’t escape.
The man looked around before declaring the area safe. The man finally released his arm.
“What’s your name?” The man asked.
He gave no response. Contemplating running for it.
“And here I thought all that running had made us close.” The man joked. “My name is Castor.”
Not daring to meet Castor’s gaze, he said, “L..Link.”
The man’s eyes widened, “Is that your name?”
He nodded.
“Well then, it seems I have completed my task.”
Link looked at him sharply. Was Castor going to kill him?
Castor seemed to realize the panic that Link was feeling. “It’s alright! It’s alright! I was just coming here to come and check on you. I had a...feeling that something had happened.”
Link didn’t have it in himself to trust him. He had learned that lesson many times. “Why..wh..why?”
Castor blinked. He had almost forgotten to tell Link. “I am your uncle, Link. I want to help you.”
Link instinctively took a step back. Family was never good.
“No wait! Please, I just want to help.”
Link stood still, curious and cautious.
“Please, let me take you back to my home. I can get you warm food, new clothes, and a bed.”
Link wasn’t sure what to do. This person was offering things that he would love to have, but what if it was a trap? What if he just wanted Link to work as a slave for him? What if he just wanted to hurt Link?
“Please son, trust me.”
Link forced himself to look at Castor in the eyes. Looking into someone’s eyes was a way to tell the truth of one’s actions, his parents made him fear looking into people's eyes. Link didn’t want to look into Castor’s eyes, he didn’t want to see the hatred and lies that filled them.
Why were they filled with such kindness? Why did they show concern, empathy, and...Link didn’t know what that last emotion was. He didn’t understand it.
If he was a good person maybe he would have.
Link nodded. Good people trust, maybe he should too.
Castor smiled and gently held out a hand to Link. Eyeing the man carefully, Link took it.
Castor took Link home.
It was a small house, not too much room, but there was a feeling to it that put Link at ease. That scared him a little. Castor led Link to a bedroom.
“This will be your room. If you wish to stay.”
Link made no move to answer the question.
The man continued and led him out of the room. “This is where we eat, that is where we cook, bathroom is over there, and my room is the door right there.”
He spoke softly, Link wasn’t used to the kind way he said things.
“Would you like to eat something?”
Link jumped, he wasn’t expecting the question. “I..I..I no..n..no.”
He was actually very hungry, but he wasn’t about to tell Castor that. His parents would never had accepted the other answer.
“Are you sure?”
“I-” Link’s stomach decided to answer with a loud growl. He froze, would the man hurt him?
Instead of becoming angry, Castor laughed. “How about I make some soup?”
Link didn’t dare to answer.
“Soup it is! Why don’t you take a seat at the table?”
Link did as told and sat down at the table. He watched silently as Castor began to make the food. The man was humming a song under his breath and Link found that he enjoyed it. Link tapped gently to the beat of the tune.
A while later, Castor placed a bowl of soup in front of Link. The man sat on the opposite side of the table, he watched Link. The boy had yet to touch his food. Maybe he needed to see that it was ok to eat.
Castor ate the food and soon enough Link followed.
It was quiet as they ate. At least until Castor asked the question that had been on his mind for as long as he had known Link. “Where are your parents?”
Link flinched. “G...gone..ne L..eft..left.”
The man looked upset. Link didn’t want the man to be upset. When people were upset he got hurt. He didn’t want to be hurt.
Castor forced the look away and once again spoke kindly to Link. “would you like to sleep?”
In fact, Link would like to sleep. It had been a long day. The boy nodded hesitantly.
Castor held out a hand to the boy and led Link to his room.
It would be years later when the boy would wake to his uncle leaving the house. The boy would follow despite his uncle's warnings. He would see his uncle die(and later come back). He would be burdened with the duties of a hero. He would lose so many.
If only he was a good person. A good person wouldn't have hurt so many. A good person. He knew he wasn’t, if only others could figure it out too.

Chapter 4: All Mine
Present Day
Brooklyn, 2021.
Y/N’s POV
As I felt his peck on my cheek, i turn around blushing.
"Baby!!" I shout and hugged him tightly. He's here! He's home. If you guys are wondering, yup, I'm dating him now. I'm dating THE KIM SEOKJIN. It's been 2 years and we're still going strong!
He hugged me tightly and pats my hair. "Aigoo~ my jagi really do miss me? Maybe i should left you more than a week," he teases me and pinch my cheek.
I stare at him angrily. "What does that suppose to mean?? I'm going crazy without you and you're leaving me..? that's just mean," I pouted. So what if i'm being a cutie with MY boyfriend?
Jackson looks a bit annoyed at my clinginess and Youngji sat there giggling at him. "Gosh i wanted to puke right here," he stated.
"Don't mind him babe, he's just jealous," i said to Seokjin. He laugh and sit beside me. How much i miss his presence and scent.
Seokjin had known all my friends. Hanbin, Jackson, Youngji, all of them the moment he enters my life. He started to ask questions about me when he first befriended me. I was shocked at first, but i opened up to him because i trusted him. He is my first boyfriend after all.
We always hang here at Mochi's Restaurant. It was the first place me and Seokjin have a proper date. haha. And it was the first place Hanbin had bought me and Youngji when we were freshmen here. So we figure, we can meet here anytime we want to hangout. It's our place. Even the owners knew us all :D
Seokjin looks at Dahyun. "Who's this special lady Hanbin?" He asks as he saw Dahyun sitting beside Hanbin. He must figure it out since Hanbin becomes all shy and quiet.
Dahyun giggles and said, "I'm his girlfriend. Nice to meet you, I'm Dahyun. You must be Y/N’s boyfriend?" She asks. I blush when Seokjin looks at me while i look down. He peck my cheeks. Gawdddd~ that's soooo cheesy.
"Yup, the one and only! I'm Seokjin. Nice to meet you Dahyun. Wow Hanbin, keeping such a secret now huh?" He asks making Hanbin blush and we all laugh at him getting flustered. I can see that he really likes her.
We had a nice chat that evening. Seokjin constantly held and squeeze my hand showing his affection towards me. I smiled and squeeze his hand back. When its finally to go, we bid goodbye towards the guys and went home to my apartment.
Correction.
Our apartment.
...
Y/N & Seokjin’s Apartment.
"Dahyun seems like a nice girl. She fits Hanbin really well, i like her eye smile. Can you believe that 1 week Hanbin was in Japan he met her there? Wow, that's what i called destiny," I said to Seokjin. He smiles as he enters my apartment.
I opened the fridge. My boyfriend must be really hungry. Although we've eaten, i know Seokjin. He always felt hungry. All.... the time.
Though i didn't knew much about cooking, i started to learn it after i dated him. One fun facts about him was that he is a foodholic. My mom often said 'A way to win a man's heart is by his stomach' and i realized that after i met Seokjin. He is a also a good chef. So, bonus. How lucky am i to have such a wonderful man?
I started to heat the kimchi i made when a pair of arms hugs my body from behind. His arms was wrapped around my waist as he puts his chin on top of my head. He is way taller than me after all.
"Jagi.. i miss you ..don't have to cook, i'm full already, let's go to sleep." He said to me sleepily. I smiled. He must be tired from all those plane ride.
I close the stove and cupped his face. "Really? Come on babe, let's get you to bed, you must be really tired don't you, love?" I ask. He pouted cutely while nodding.
I put one of his arm around my shoulder and he cutely clings to me all the way to the bedroom. I put him on the bed and i lay down beside him, not minding to change my clothes.
We lay facing each other as we stared into each other's eyes that night. There's no word that were uttered but we felt comfortable even that we didn't talk. I trace his beautiful sculptured face with my fingers, slowly from his forehead,
to his eyes,
to his nose...
And finally land my finger on his lips.
He smiles as he try to bite my finger cutely. I'm so happy i met him. The day Seokjin asks me out was the best day of my life. Nobody ever asks me out before, i was hesitant, yes at first, but he assures me, he'll take care of me and be the man i deserve. I'm glad i bump into him 2 years ago.
After all the wait, i finally get my happy ending. Seokjin was MY perfect man. He's MY prince charming. He's my other half and i'm absolutely positive about a guy this time. This time, i won't get broken hearted.
Again.
...
Seokjin's POV
I stare at Y/N’s sleeping figure. She looks so soft and fragile like this. God i wish the whole world knew how much i'm in love with her. She's... different in every way. Ways that i can't even explain myself.
Y/N is more than perfect. I'm glad i get a hold of her. I kiss her lips gently trying not to wake her up from her deep sleep. I remember how i ask her out but she hesitates at first, she looks as if she's afraid to fall in love, but i begs her to give me a chance and prove her how much i'll make her happy. And here we are, already in a 2 years relationship.
Y/N is different. She's unlike any other girls I've met before. Y/N doesn't like to give up and she works hard on what she wants. She attracts me with her bright personality that i love so much. She may look though outside but inside, she's sensitive. Her caring side stood out the most and even that she's a bit hot tempered sometimes, i always be the water to her fire. She's an amazing girl.
So when Youngji tells me about her old life and not to play with her heart, i promise myself that i'll take care of her fragile heart and not to toy with it. I never knew a bright person like her had a very painful past that made it difficult for her to fall in love again. So i did my best to heal the wounds other's gave her and teach her that love is wonderful.
I love you Lee Y/N, forever and always.
I whisper as i fall asleep with her in my arms.
...
The Next Day.
Y/N’s POV
I look at Seokjin as he walked in the apartment, groceries in hands. He smiles as he slips off his shoes in the doorway and close the door behind.
"Babe, what did you buy so much? It's not like we can eat all this tonight," i giggled. He chuckled and put the groceries on the kitchen and kiss my forehead.
"It's for you Jagi, a food stock whenever you're hungry, Jackson complains that you keep on cooking food at his place because your allowance money is late this month, so whenever i'm away, cook this OK? I don't want my chubby girlfriend to be a skeleton next time i met her."
I'm melting, seriously. Why does he have to be such a sweetheart boyfriend? I'm pretty sure i did something good on my past life to have an amazing boyfriend like him.
He begins to wears his pink apron that i gave him as a birthday present and start to cook something.
"Babe, let me cook it's okay, go rest," i told him But he won't budge.
"Jagi, you know i love you right? But as much as i love you, i had to admit, your cooking skills are a bit lacking, and i want you to eat something edible," he laugh and winks. I pouted, what's that's suppose to mean?! I know i'm not a good cook, at least i can cook something edible OK.
"Babe, you should acknowledge that my cooking skills are different that other's, i'm too expert to cook it more edible," i joked and he laughs hardly while cutting the onions.
He smiles defeatedly. "Okay, okay, you win. At least you can make the best kimchi." I smile widely. I was washing the dishes when he asks me how's my family.
"Eomma? She's fine, she told me Haru's boyfriend proposed last week and Hanna Unnie is 2 months pregnant," I told him.
"Woaa.. that means we're going to be an uncle and aunt soon! Yay!" He stated happily. I looked at him.
"We?" I ask smilingly. He nodded and kisses my forehead.
"We."
Seokjin had met my family last summer. I was afraid that he might get a bit shocked after meeting Eomma and my two loud sisters but he's more than happy to meet them. After all, i'm a family girl, if he doesn't like Eomma, that's a MAJOR turn off for me. But Seokjin sincerely loves them and always ask about them caringly like he's my husband already.
I told him about Appa who passed away when i was in middle school. He felt sorry and told me that i'm a strong girl for having to get through those difficult time until i manage to get to where i am today. He said he will be responsible for taking care of me when he marries me. Ahhhh.. Heart attack.
I grins and turn off the pipe.
"What about your Eomma and Appa? And your Hyung? Did he get enlisted in the military already?" I ask him.
He nodded. "Yeah, Eomma and Appa is busy travelling while Hyung is preparing for his enlistment. So that's pretty much it." I chuckled. He always argue with his hyung but i know deep down he loves him.
After he finish cooking and i prepared the table, we sit there, having a candle light dinner sort of date. I wasn't really into romantic things but Seokjin is such a Shakespeare.
We talked about a lot of things, how's college for me, and his exchange student programmed, our families and what's going on lately. I felt comfortable, opening up to him about a lot of things.
"When is your next exchange student programmed? And how long?" I asks him. He stopped eating and sighed. By the way he looks at me with sad eyes, i know he's upset.
"Jagiya, I'm sorry, this time, it's in Australia and it will be up to three months, i'm sorry sweetheart," he apologize. I knew it was sad. Our relationship is preoccupied with our dreams. But i understand, this is what we choose.
I held his cheeks. "It's okay Oppa, i get it, besides when we finish our studies, we can get a better living and at that time, we'll always be together, just don't go flirt with another girl okay? Sometimes i'm afraid that you might fall in love with someone else while you're away," I pouts.
He kisses me, giving me a sign that he's assuring me. "Jagi, i can't even look at other girl when all i think is you, so please don't doubt me, all i want is you," he kisses my knuckles.
He stand up and told me to wait while he went into our room. I wonder what he's been preparing. My man is full of surprises sometimes. I waited at the kitchen when he appears, hiding something behind him. I look at him curiously.
"Ooo what's that? May i see it?" I asks him like a five years old.
He laugh softly. "Well, since you ask nicely," and showed me what he's been hiding.
It was a pretty, nice sunflower bouquet and a small red box in it. I can't contain my happiness as i hug him tightly.
"Ca-can't..b..-breath," he chocked and i release him while lightly giggling, "Sorry." He always give me nice new sunflowers because sunflowers are the only types of flowers that i'm not allergic to.
"Wow, what's this for Babe? Did you do something again?" I ask him playfully. He looks at me gently and shake his head.
"Then what for?" I tested him. He open the box in the middle and i'm surprised that in it, was a beautiful ring that he talked about giving me 8 months ago.
He slips the ring on my fingers and kiss it softly.
"I love you Jagi. This is my promise ring to you that even though i'm not around, my heart is always beating for you. Keep it safely and if you doubt me, just hold the ring and you'll know that i'm always thinking of you," He said romantically.
I'm so moved by Seokjin. He's very mature and he's such a gentleman in this relationship, sometimes i wonder how did i end up having him.
I was tearing when he wipes it off.
"Happy Anniversary Jagi, I love you." he kisses me.
"Happy Anniversary too Oppa. I love you more." I answer.
See how a good of a boyfriend he is?
He even remember what day is today.

OC interview meme ... Pt 2
I was tagged by @dickeybbqpit @keeperscompanionsdai and @shield-maiden-of-sherwood You guys are all beautiful and lovely for thinking of me ;)  So, let’s ask post trespasser Faeron some questions, shall we?
Tumblr media
1. What is your name? Faeron Tamlith Lavellan 
2. What is your real name? Ummm... That... That is my real name... 
3. Do you know why you were called that? My mother once told me it means "Bright in Mind and Spirit" *he giggles* I expect they really chose it because they liked it though.
4. Are you single or taken? *he almost winces at the question* I... WAS with someone... It... We...  *he sighs sadly* Single.
5. Have any abilities or powers? Hmmm... I can cook? Although... The lack of arm hinders that somewhat. Need more help nowadays with the preparation and stuff. *A small sweet smile graces his face* Or.. did you mean stuff like this...? * He waves his hand and it begins to snow inside...* 
7. What’s your eye colour? *he chuckles* Good question! You tell me *he winks* I once got told they were the colour of magic...  That was very sweet. I’m honestly not sure if they’re periwinkle blue with golden flecks, OR, golden with periwinkle blue flecks?
8. How about your hair color? *He blows his hair in front of his face* From what’s left of it... Still looks to be blue black. Someone once called that ‘raven’. *he says sweeping his hair back again* 
9. Have you any family members? Nico is well, if that’s what you’re asking? *he smiles*  Father is still as strong as an ox... I... I have been a little... reserved as of late... There are people I should have visited now there’s time again... It’s just been... Difficult... * He seems to fade away for a moment staring at the floor* The clan is well. Varric keeps asking for a visit too! ...I should probably save him from the paperwork at some point... 
10. Oh? What about pets? *sigh* No one let me keep the dragon egg we found *he says with a pout* I told everyone it would be fine, but... They still said no.  I still have my Halla, Ghilas? He’s such a good boy! He likes it when I let him sleep near the fire when we are traveling and rub his tummy... Nico, doesn’t like that so much though... She just... glares at him, and mutters things like ‘Just try scaring me, you shit horse...’  ... It’s uncomfortable. Father says he’s not a ‘pet’, but he is! He likes to be spoilt. *he gives a big smile*
11. That’s cool I guess, now tell me about something you don’t like. That’s... A BIG question... Isn’t it? Do.. Do you mean big life things like, pain, and sadness? Or, more trivial? Like... The fact I don’t like wearing clothes? 
12. Do you have any hobbies/activities you like doing?  I feel like... *he clutches the stump of his missing arm.* Like, I’m relearning how to do everything at the moment. The first cake I made was... Lumpy and when I tried to dance and spin Harding... I lost my balance... and ended up in her arms! I still love Varric’s books?And can read them one handed! .... No, wait that sounded wrong... *he blushes*

15. What kind of animal are you? Oooo! Ummm... Hmm... Maybe... Maybe a stag? Or a raven? Ooo! What about an owl? 
16. Name your worst habits. I... I have been told I’m too soft, too kind, and too self sacrificing... *he give a humorless chuckle* I also cry a lot.
17. Do you look up to anyone at all? Oh yes! Nico, is strong and beautiful, clever, and brave.    Varric is smooth and funny. Blackw- Thom, is Noble and kind. Cassandra is pure and wise. Josephine is sweet and friendly and soooo diplomatic! Bull is strong and unshakable.  Cole is gentle as a breeze Lady viviane is... Well, she scares me... But, She is amazingly shrewd. Sera is brave and funny. We... We don’t talk about the others... It... It’s too fresh. 
18. Gay, straight, or bisexual? *his eyes widen and he blushes bright red* I... I’m gay. 
19. Do you go to school? Not... In... the traditional sense? Me and Nico were taught in many things though. Even when we didn’t want to be... Father, he... He wanted us to have every opportunity, so we learnt most of the trades of the camp.  
20. Do you ever want to marry and have kids one day? *His face falls and it looks like someone has just ripped his heart out. He places a hand to his mouth and sits quietly for some time* More... More than anything... *he snuffles* 
21. Do you have any fanboys/fangirls? Tut! Have you been talking to Nico? *he chuckles* Don’t pay any attention, it’s not true. 
22. What are you most afraid of? I... I think the worst thing that could have happened, HAS... *he looks sad again* So now... Now I supposed I’m scared of pain... Loneliness... That my life will now be a void... 
23. What do you usually wear? As little as possible. Clothes are always... Rough against my skin... I don’t like it... So, soft things?
24. Do you love someone? Of course. *He smiles* I love lots of people.

26. Well, it’s not over yet! Okay! *he smiles*
27. What class are you? (High class, middle class, low class) Ummmm... I... I’m an elf? I mean... I know people are nice enough to us now because we saved Thedas and everything, but... Still an elf. *he giggles*
28. How many friends do you have? Lots! I made friends with the soldiers... *his face contorts into confusion* Want to know something really weird? So many of them were call Jim... It got creepy!
29. What are your thoughts on pie? I have made many! Why? Did you want one? I can probably make you something if you’re hungry?
30. Favourite drink? Anything with apples and elderflower. Meed is yummy... and jasmine tea.
31. What’s your favourite place? There’s this little nook behind the waterfall in the undercroft... It’s nice there. 
32. Are you interested in someone? I adore them... *he gives the saddest smile you’ve ever seen, his eyes glassy* But... Love isn’t always enough... so I have learned....
33. What’s your bra cup size and/or how big is your willy? *Faeron’s ears flick (which only happens when he gets realllllly flustered) and he goes beet red* I... Ummm... I.... I don’t know how to answer this... I’ve seen bigger... But no one has ever complained? 
34. Would you rather swim in the lake or the ocean? Lakes. I love swimming in them.

38. Camping or indoors? I like both, but... Outdoors has the stars. *he smiles* 
39. Are you wanting the interview to end? I don’t mind. *he gives a soft shrug and a smile*
40. Now it’s over! Oh. *he giggles* Okay! Was... Was it okay?

In Her Father's Own Words
Summary: Marie experiences a shock one evening when her polite and well-behaved five-year-old daughter lets a four-letter word slip. She and Darwin are then tasked with explaining to their darling little Lessica the concept of bad words, as well as discovering where she might have learned this one.
Rated: T (for swearing and implied sexual content)
Pairing(s): Darwin x Marie
If you’d like, feel free to read on AO3!
It happened so suddenly one evening that Marie almost couldn't believe it had happened. She wasn't sure if she had heard correctly, at first...but as it sunk in, she found that she couldn't deny it. Darwin was making dinner that night, so Marie was helping Lessica tidy up the usual mess of books on her bedroom floor. "You sure do love to look at books, don't you, Lessica?" Marie asked, picking several up off the floor. "Yes, I do," Lessica replied, in her typical, formal way...a way that was atypical for children her age, though. She gathered some up in her little arms, and Marie watched her carefully. "Sweetie, that might be a few too many," she said. However, her words came too late. Lessica was unable to see her feet as she carried the stack of books, and thus, she was unable to see that one was right in her way. It happened so quickly that Marie couldn't stop it...Lessica tripped and started to fall forward. In the process, she let go of the stack of books that she was carrying so that she could catch herself. She didn't cry when she landed...a few years ago, she might have, but Lessica was a strong child. Even so, Marie needed to ask if she was okay. Before she could do so, though, Lessica said something shocking. The word itself was brief, only four letters long, and Marie wasn't sure if she'd heard correctly. As she realized that she had, in fact, heard correctly, her jaw dropped and her eyes widened. Her sweet, angelic daughter, her gentle and polite little girl, had just uttered her first profanity...and it was a bad one. The fact that Lessica didn't look up at her mother with a guilty expression indicated that she probably didn't understand the gravity of what she'd just said. From everything Marie had read, reacting strongly to a child's first use of adult language could often result in repeat offenses...so she kept calm. At the same time, though, she needed to speak to Darwin immediately. The only time Marie engaged in the use of such language was when she was bringing her beloved daughter into the world, but Darwin wasn't quite as squeaky clean. Not only that, but he might also have an idea as to how to handle this situation. "Lessica, sweetie?" Marie said, continuing to look and sound perfectly calm. "I just remembered I need to talk to Daddy about something...do you think you can finish picking up on your own?" Lessica nodded. "Yes, Mommy. I will do my best." "That's great..." Marie bent down to give her a kiss on the head. "Thank you...and dinner should be ready soon, too." With that, she hurried down the stairs to the kitchen, where Darwin was putting the finishing touches on dinner. He noticed her there right away. "Hey, did you and Lessica finish up?" He paused as he took a better look at her. "Uh...you look upset. Did something happen?" "You'll never guess what our sweet little girl just said, Darwin," Marie replied simply. "Um...I don't know..." He thought it over then after a moment, he looked at her with shock and concern. "Did she say she isn't hungry or something?!" "Darwin, I'm being serious!" "Well, so am I...but it's hard to imagine Lessica saying anything bad. She's such a good kid!" He went back to sautéing some vegetables in a pan on the stove. "She is..." Marie sighed. "Darwin, she...said a very bad word. A four-letter one...that starts with F." Darwin nearly dropped the cooking implement in his hand. "W-What?! Are you sure you heard right?!" Marie nodded. "I'm positive, Darwin. She tripped and dropped a bunch of books, and that word came out of her mouth." "Huh...well, at least she's using it correctly..." Marie glared at him, and he very quickly changed his tune. "I'm kidding, Marie! She shouldn't be saying it at all. She's five years old, for crying out loud..." "Precisely. Now, where do you think she learned a word like that?" "Not from me. I'm always really careful with what I say around her. I wouldn't let one like that slip." "I figured as much..." Marie sighed once again. "And I know she didn't learn it from you. Unless...she was somehow able to remember a few of the things you said to me while she was making her way into the world." Marie couldn't help but laugh a little. "I still feel terrible about that, you know!" "Water under the bridge...my feelings weren't hurt." Darwin smiled. "Besides, I believe there were a few instances where you said it felt like your body was going to tear in half, and I think that sort of agony probably deserves a few expletives." "Ugh...I suppose it does..." She laughed again, thinking back to that day, before looking back up at Darwin again. "Though it was hardly fair...you didn't leave my side even once, and you held my hand for almost the entire thing." That time, Darwin laughed, his cheeks turning slightly pink as they gazed at each other. However, he awkwardly cleared his throat after a moment and went back to cooking. Marie also realized she ought to return to the topic at hand. "So what should we do?" she asked him. "I'm reluctant to tell her it's a bad word and that she shouldn't repeat it ever again. They say that when kids get told that, they're more likely to develop a habit of swearing." "Yeah, but this is Lessica we're talking about," Darwin said. "The only child on the entire planet who, at three years old, threatened to throw a fit and didn't - or maybe couldn't - actually have one." Marie smiled. "I remember that! It was so strange...she just kept pacing around looking angry. It was like she didn't know how!" "You would think that being told she couldn't have dessert before dinner would be the perfect catalyst for that," Darwin said. "But anyway, I don't think she'd be inclined to start swearing more simply because we told her not to." "You're probably right about that," Marie said. "Not to mention she'll be starting school soon enough...if she doesn't know that she shouldn't be using that kind of language at school, she could very well use it, but still get in trouble! And if other kids overhear, they could tell their parents and their classmates, and-" "Our daughter won't be invited anywhere, ever," Darwin finished. "Parents will say, 'Now you stay away from that Lessica Allecker, she has a mouth like a sailor! Her mother is trained in the dark arts, and her father is a cold blooded professional murderer who will kill anyone if you pay him enough!'" "The dark arts?!" Marie protested. "My studies mostly involved powerful healing magic, and even the attack spells I've mastered hardly went into anything dark in nature! And who in their right mind would say that about you?!" "I don't know, a paranoid mom whose favorite hobby is spreading rumors?" Darwin replied. "Anyway, I think it's obvious what we have to do now." "Yeah...we have to tell her that what she said was a bad word." "I agree. And let's ask her where she learned it, too. That way, we can figure out the source of it." "Good idea," Marie said. "Though I still can't imagine where she learned it." "Well, we can find out soon enough. Dinner's ready." "Oh! Perfect timing!" Marie laughed. "I'll call her downstairs, and..." She smiled, looking in the doorway to see their enormous family dog, Bartholomew, standing there and drooling on the floor. He knew he wasn't allowed to pester anyone while they were making dinner, but he was clearly ready for his. "Aww, is mama's baby hungry? Barty wants his dindins, doesn't he?" She walked over and kissed him on the muzzle, and Darwin sighed. "Lessica, dinner's ready!" he called up the stairs. Once Marie had given Barty his dinner, and Darwin had distributed the humans' dinner onto plates, Lessica arrived at the table...though her behavior was certainly odd, at least more so than usual. She was holding her mouth wide open with both of her hands. Her right arm curled up and around her head and held her front teeth, while her left arm wasn't stretched quite as much in order to hold her bottom jaw. Both Darwin and Marie stared for a moment before either one of them said anything. "Uh...Lessica..." Darwin started out. "What exactly are you...trying to do...?" "I'h hahihing heing a hahe," Lessica replied, still not letting go of her jaws. Marie smiled. "Lessica, it isn't polite to have your hands in your mouth at the table. We also can't understand what you're saying when you talk like that." Immediately, Lessica let go. "I said I am practicing being a snake." Well, that was a new one. Marie wasn't entirely sure of how to respond, but it was obvious that Darwin was even less sure. "Practicing...being a snake...?" he repeated. "Yes," Lessica said with a nod. "I read in a book that snakes can open their mouths soooo wide..." She gestured with her arms to indicate just how wide a snake could open its mouth. "So that they can eat bigger things. And then the thing they ate stays in their tummy and makes a shape there. If I practice being a snake, I think I might be able to eat all of my dinner in one bite, but I do not think it is big enough to make a shape in my tummy." Darwin and Marie looked at each other for a moment, and then back at Lessica. She sure did come up with some strange ideas...but her bizarre creativity was just one part of what made her so special to them. Marie tried to think of how to best handle this new idea of hers. "Well, sweetie...just because you hold your mouth open for as long as you can...that won't make it stay that way." Lessica looked disappointed. "It won't?" Marie offered her an apologetic smile and shook her head. "No...the thing is, snakes and humans are different creatures, and different creatures have to change in different ways in order to survive. So at some point, a very long time ago, snakes figured out that in order to survive, they needed to be able to make their mouths open really wide in order to eat certain animals." She looked at Lessica to determine whether or not she was still listening. Surprisingly, she was. "So for a long time...probably thousands of years...snakes developed the ability to actually detach their jawbones from the rest of their heads and then put them back later, so that they could eat animals even bigger than their heads! Scientists call that adaptation." "Adaptation..." Lessica repeated. "So if I practice making my mouth stay open for a very long time, could I also get an adaptation?" Once again, Marie was the bearer of bad news. "No...it doesn't work that way. Adaptation like that only happens when a living thing needs to change something in order to survive." She thought of something to better help Lessica understand. "Think about some of your favorite foods. How do you eat them?" "How?" Lessica asked. "Well...for a plum..." She replicated the actions of picking up a plum, bringing it up to her mouth, and taking a bite. Her face lit up in understanding shortly after. "I see now! Snakes do not have hands, and I do!" Marie smiled. "That's right! So as long as you have hands, you don't need to open your mouth like a snake!" Darwin chimed in at long last. "Also, snakes don't get to eat things like plums and chocolate cake. Lots of rats and mice. I don't know about you, but I'd take plums and chocolate cake over rodents any day." Lessica wrinkled her nose. "Eating rats and mice sounds terrible. I prefer food meant for people." "I think we can all agree on that," Marie said. "Now, would you mind washing your hands again, Lessica? They were in your mouth, if you recall." "Okay, Mommy," Lessica said. Almost immediately, she went off to go do what she was told. "That was quite a lesson, there," Darwin said. "You didn't forget about the other thing, did you?" Marie sighed. "Of course I didn't forget. I just saw an opportunity for her to learn something, and I made use of it!" "She'll be ahead of her classmates soon enough," Darwin said. "Let's just hope we can get the language situation cleared up so she's not teaching the other kids at school anything they shouldn't be learning." After a while, Lessica returned to the table and sat down. She thanked her father for cooking, and she started to eat. At the same time, Marie was running through ways to breach the topic of Lessica's colorful language in her head. "Lessica..." she said finally. "You know that Daddy and I love you, and that we always will love you no matter what, right?" Lessica smiled and nodded, only speaking after she was finished chewing her food. "Yes, I do know that. It makes me happy!" "That's good to hear!" Marie told her. "So, earlier, do you remember how we were picking up things in your room?" Lessica nodded. "I heard about it from Mommy," Darwin said. "You fell down while carrying some books, didn't you?" Lessica nodded again. "I did. But I wasn't hurt. I was angry with myself for falling because I had to pick them up again. I should have listened to Mommy...she said I was carrying too many." "It's all right, Lessica," Marie said. "As long as you learned from it. That's part of a mommy or a daddy's job...to teach their child. That reminds me, though..." She took a deep breath. "You...said something when you fell down, isn't that right?" "Something?" Lessica repeated. "Yes, it was just one word," Marie said. "I don't think I'd ever heard you say it before. What was it again?" "Hmm..." Lessica thought it over for a moment. "It was..." Marie braced herself to hear it again, trying not to let her distress show as the word in question came out of her daughter's mouth. "It was, 'fuck.'" Clearly, Marie ought to have been watching Darwin instead, as he had chosen a rather inopportune moment to take a bite of his food, and he was now coughing. Lessica's expression immediately showed concern. "Daddy? Are you all right?" Darwin nodded as he attempted to recover. "...Uh, y-yeah Lessica, I'm fine...I just...wow..." Darwin's coughing eventually subsided, and Lessica resumed eating again. Marie decided to continue the language discussion. "So, Lessica, about that..." she said. "You know how there are nice words and not-so-nice words, right?" Lessica nodded. "'Chocolate' is a nice word, and 'mommy' and 'daddy' are nice words. Not nice words are things like 'stupid,' 'sour,' and 'I hate you.'" "Um...yes, that's right," Marie said. "But...there are some words that are just...bad words. They're words that nice little girls and boys shouldn't say. Adults really shouldn't say them either! And...that word you said when you dropped your books...that's one of those bad words." Lessica's eyes widened, and her expression turned to one of utter shock. "So I...?" Her gray-green eyes started to fill with tears. "I-I didn't mean to say a bad word...I'm so sorry...! Does this mean...I'm not a nice little girl anymore?" Before Marie could even think to get some reassuring words out, Darwin spoke up. "It doesn't mean that at all, Lessica," he said. "You didn't know that it was a bad word, because nobody ever told you that it was. But now you know, so you won't say it anymore, right?" Lessica nodded and rubbed at her eyes. "Good. That's all we wanted to make sure of." "Okay..." Lessica said. "I won't say that bad word anymore." "We did have one other question, sweetie," Marie said quickly. "Where on earth did you hear it in the first place?" At that moment, Lessica fell silent and looked away. "What's wrong, Lessica?" "The person I learned it from won't be in trouble if I tell, will they?" Marie blinked, and she thought it over for a bit. But then, she smiled and shook her head. "Of course not...nobody's in trouble here, nor will they be." For a moment, Lessica hesitated, but then, she spoke up again. Her words were shocking to Marie...but at the same time, she didn't quite know why she didn't suspect it in the first place. "Daddy and Orlando were practicing with swords..." Almost immediately after, Darwin stood up, muttering something about dishes, but Marie grabbed him by the wrist and stared right into his eyes. "Oh no, my sweet husband. We both wanted to hear about this, remember?" He very slowly sat back down, but Marie still didn't let go of him. She eventually turned back to Lessica. "Lessica, Daddy and Orlando must have said a lot of things when they were practicing with swords, right?" "Right," she said. "They said a lot of words I didn't know, especially when they hit each other." "I thought so," Marie said. "Why don't you tell me everything that you remember hearing? That way, I can go through and make sure they didn't say any other bad words!" Lessica smiled. "Okay, then I will...it was during a time where I was supposed to be sleeping, and I was, but they yell a lot when they use even pretend swords." "Yes, I believe it," Marie said, sighing heavily. "Those two have always been quite loud while they're training!" "Orlando said that F word first," Lessica told her. "That was when Daddy hit him in the ribs with his sword. He said, 'F word, Darwin, that hurt like a son of a bitch!' Except he said the actual word." At first, Marie wanted to laugh at Lessica's impression of her uncle, but then another profanity left her daughter's mouth. "R-Right, I did understand that..." Marie said. "The last word, though, that started with the letter B, that's another bad word." "I see," Lessica said. "So Daddy started laughing when Orlando got mad, then Orlando used that chance to get him back. He ran at him and made a slash with both hands, so then Daddy got mad. He said, 'Ow, Orlando, damn it! That stung like a motherfucker!'" Marie turned her attention to Darwin, her mouth hanging open in surprise. In response, he scowled. "Clearly you've never taken a hit like that," he said. "Because then, you'd know that it stings like...what I said!" Marie turned back to Lessica. "All right, Daddy said two bad words that time! The D word he said is bad, and then the last thing, what he said it stung like?" Lessica nodded attentively. "Did you notice how that one had the bad F word in it? That means the whole thing is a bad word. Once you combine a normal word with a bad word, the whole thing becomes a bad word." "So is 'mother' a bad word?" Lessica asked. "Not by itself," Marie assured her. "Only when you combine it with that bad F word." Lessica furrowed her brow. "This is confusing..." "Yes, in more ways than just one..." Marie said, glancing over at Darwin again. "Now, what happened next?" "Um..." She thought it over, taking a bite of her dinner. "Oh! And then Orlando told Daddy, 'Don't be such a whiny little pissbaby!' And Daddy said, 'Sorry, asshole, it kind of hurt!'" She paused. "It did not sound like he was sorry." "I don't think he was," Marie told her. "But the last thing Orlando said there, and then that A word Daddy used...those are more examples of how combining a normal word with a bad word makes the whole thing into a bad word." "So there could be endless ways to make bad words..." Lessica said. "I had no idea..." She looked at Marie again. "Oh, but for a while, they mostly didn't talk. There was one time, though..." "Yes, what happened?" Marie asked. "Daddy was dodging many of Orlando's attacks," Lessica said. "So Orlando said, 'What, afraid you might get hit? Quit being such a pussy!'" Marie clasped her hands over her mouth, her face turning red and her eyes widening. She had certainly heard that word out of Orlando's mouth on a few occasions, but hearing it from her five-year-old? That was a bit more than she could handle. "That...that word that Orlando told Daddy to quit being..." Marie said quietly, once she'd recovered from the shock of it. "That is a...really not nice word." "I am sorry," Lessica told her. "It's all right," Marie assured her. "Now, what sort of brilliant response did Daddy come up with?" "I did not really understand it," Lessica said. "But it made Orlando really angry. He said, 'Well, you know what they say: you are what you eat!'" Marie's face heated up and reddened even more than it did before, and her jaw dropped. She looked over at Darwin, who seemed to be having the same problem, though it was hard to say for certain. His hands were covering his face, but he only did that when he was beyond mortified. "Did that part have a bad word too?" Lessica asked. "Not...exactly..." Marie said. She wasn't sure how to go about explaining why she was so astonished to hear that. Luckily, she did have another way to deal with that, even if it was a little bit mean. "Darwin, why don't you explain? Since you were the one who said it, after all." Darwin looked as though he wanted to protest, but that lasted only a second. He obviously knew that this whole mess was at least partially his fault. "Well, um...Lessica, I don't do anything that Mommy doesn't like, but for an older brother to hear that his little sister is-" "Darwin!" Marie quickly cut him off before he could say anything else. Maybe leaving that bit of explanation to him had been a mistake after all... "R-Right! Um..." He took a deep breath. "S-So that word Orlando said...when someone talks about eating...that...they're referring to the sort of thing that, uh...that one doesn't usually talk about in civilized conversation." "Oh..." Lessica said. "But then why did you talk about it, Daddy? Are you uncivilized?" "I..." He trailed off, obviously searching his mind for an answer. "I-I was only saying it to make Orlando angry! When he gets mad enough, his swordsmanship can get sloppy. It's always good to know your opponent's weakness." Marie was relieved...that was a pretty good answer, especially considering Darwin did have a tendency to panic when forced to make up an excuse on the spot. However, it became apparent that her relief was premature. "I see," Lessica told him. "But Daddy, do you ever actually eat that thing he called you?" "Uh...often enough, I guess..." "Darwin!!" Marie couldn't believe what she was hearing. Even though Lessica didn't know what it meant, he still didn't need to be saying it! "Have I ever seen you eat it, Daddy?" Lessica asked. "No, you haven't," he said. "Because it usually only happens well after your bedtime, and behind closed doors. Although back before you were born, it happened anywhere in the house your Mommy wanted it to, and there were definitely a handful of times where I did it outs- ow, Marie!!!" She had been trying to get him to stop talking for several seconds before she resorted to stepping on his foot under the table so Lessica couldn't see, and that obviously had managed to get his attention. She glared over at him again. "That was entirely too much information, Darwin!" "Right. Sorry...I-I kind of freaked out for a second there..." "Daddy is not in trouble, is he?" Lessica asked, the concern in her eyes very apparent. Marie was annoyed, of course, but she wasn't truly angry with Darwin...so she smiled at Lessica and told her as much. "No, my sweet girl. Daddy's not in trouble. But...go ahead and tell me the rest of what happened." Lessica obliged, and the need for damage control became more and more apparent the more she talked, and Darwin was clearly quite uncomfortable. Marie was embarrassed to find that there were variations on certain profanities that she'd never even heard before. Much later that evening, Marie used the time while Darwin was putting Lessica to bed to get some reading done in the master bedroom. She was still in shock...how did Darwin have such a filthy mouth without her knowing? As the bedroom door opened, she scowled, holding the book a bit closer to her face. When he sat down on the bed next to her, though, she couldn't help but pay attention to him. "I promise," he started off. "I really, really had no idea she was listening in..." Marie closed the book and set it down on her nightstand. "You are...what you eat..." "Uh...w-what about it?" "You told my brother that you eat-" "I-It really was just to make him mad!" Darwin told her. "And you have to admit, that was a pretty good response, especially when you think about the fact that I was dodging two blades at a time!" "Fine, it was clever, but Darwin..." She frowned. "How did you get such an...extensive vocabulary, anyway?!" He blinked. "That's what you want to know...?" "Well...yes, kind of!" He smiled. "I guess...mercenaries just tend to be rough around the edges, and that goes for their language, too..." "Ugh..." "Hey, come on, Marie...I really am sorry!" She turned to look at him again. He certainly looked sorry...and Darwin's expressions were almost always a dead giveaway as to his true intentions. And even though she didn't want to admit it...she did have a rather enjoyable idea. So, she leaned forward and kissed him gently. "Fine, I forgive you...but only because Lessica said not to be angry with Daddy..." She pressed another kiss against his lips. "And how could I be angry with someone so sweet and honest, and so good-looking...?"
His cheeks turned pink, and she smirked. "M-Marie?" "Quiet, now. Lessica's only just gone to bed. But, I wonder...?" She climbed into his lap and caressed his cheek. "I wonder what other sorts of filthy things you can do with that mouth of yours?" He raised his eyebrows, looping his arms around her waist. "Well...I have been known to eat-" She quickly placed her index finger over his lips and looked directly into his eyes. Though there was a playful smile on her lips, she wanted him to be quite certain that she was serious about what she was about to say. "I've given you a nice chance here, Darwin. Don't ruin it for yourself."
A/N: Ooh, looks like Daddy's dirty mouth is gonna get put to good use on Mommy~
Haha, but I've always had this headcanon that Marie doesn't use profanity, the only exception to this occurring when she was in labor, but hey, can you really blame her? She never did try to monitor what the boys were saying, but I'd imagine that once Orlando (because you KNOW it was Orlando) busted out the anatomical slang, she did attempt to put a stop to it. After this, though...I get the feeling she was maybe a bit more diligent as far as regulating what the boys could say around her daughter!

Bitch and Fix: Hunk Edition
I just want to start out by saying that I am PISSED about the way that Voltron treated Hunk this season. And I am absolutely going to complain about that, but then I’m actually gonna offer a few solutions that fix some of the issues the show created by basically forgetting half of Hunk’s character. WARNING: I will be bashing the fuck out of season 2 and the voltron writers. That doesn’t mean that I didn’t enjoy the season as a whole.
Problems Throughout the Whole Season
Bitch
WAS IT REALLY NECESSARY TO HAVE HUNK MAKE A FOOD RELATED COMMENT EVERY FUCKING EPISODE? WAS IT? NO! NO IT WAS NOT! Hunk likes food, sure, but not that much. He certainly didn’t make that many comments about it in season 1. Just- no. It’s not that funny, and it’s pretty insulting to imply that all he cares about is how hungry he is. Sidenote: I’m not going to mention the jokes on a episode by episode basis because there are so many of them that it would be a gigantic waste of my time.
Both scenes where Hunk gets stuck in a hole. Like the first one was bad enough, but the second one was too much. Just- that’s so tacky. It’s a terrible and insulting fat joke that nobody finds very funny.
All the sleeping jokes- thanks for making him look like a lazy slob. NOT
The fact that he was sidelined the whole time to make room for other people’s development. It you have to completely erase a character’s personality in order for your other characters to have development, you aren’t a very good writer.
NO CENTRIC EPISODE!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!! EVERY SINGLE PALADIN GOT ONE BUT NOT HUNK???? (Shiro and Keith got multiple ones)
Fix
Get rid of every single food joke. All of them. None of them add anything to the episodes. The only two food related things I would keep for the season would be the Hunk cooking scenes (both in the mall and when he made the lens cookies), because they’re both somewhat relevant to plot and they emphasize Hunk’s cooking ability rather than emphasizing how obsessed with food he is.
Either have some other reason why he gets stuck (his head, or his bayard ejects, or his foot gets caught on a seaweed piece or something) or don’t have him get stuck at all. I’ll talk more about Hunk getting stuck in “The Depths” when I start going episode by episode. I honestly see no real reason for him to get stuck in “The Belly of the Weblum” at all.
Just replace these sleeping scenes with Hunk focusing on some engineering thing, like super focused, and then snap out of it. Same effect, but makes him look smart, not lazy.
I will discuss this on an episode by episode basis.
The best episode to make a centric, in my opinion, is “The Belly of the Weblum”- I’ll discuss this more when I get to this episode.
“Across the Universe”
N/A. Hunk’s not even really in this episode.
“The Depths”
Bitch
It all really centers around the fact of the way Hunk was sidelined so Lance could be the savior. Which, fine. Lance needs his time to shine. But there was a way to do that without the fat jokes. HE GOT LEFT BEHIND BECAUSE HE WAS TOO FAT TO FIT THROUGH THE HOLE? WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TRYING TO FAT SHAME YOUR AUDIENCE? Honestly I have seen the “too fat to fit through a whole” as a trope in the past, but I have reached peak tolerance with this bullshit. Honestly the next time I see this stupid trope I’m gonna scream.
Fix
Ok, there are a lot of different ways to fix this so you still end up with Hunk left behind. He could get stuck for some other reason that has nothing to do with him being fat. Or, Lance could sleepwalk and stumble upon the rebels. Or, they see Lance first, but don’t have enough time to grab Hunk. Or, Hunk sleep punches them out, or literally a hundred different ways to do this without making a fat joke.
“Shiro’s Escape”
Bitch
Not enough Hunk. We always need more.
Fix
More Hunk. Offering suggestions, being his smart self.
“Greening the Cube”
There is no episode that pisses me off as much as this one does.
Bitch
The whole thing with the fixing of the shield. You’re telling me that HUNK, THE ACTUAL ENGINEER OF THE GARRISON TRIO, DOESN’T UNDERSTAND ENGINEERING TERMS FROM CORAN? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS? WHAT KIND OF BULLSHIT IS THAT CRAP? OHHH MANNN I A SOOOO PISSED.
HUNK, ENGINEER, HAS NO INTEREST IN THE PLANET OF ENGINEERS? NO INTEREST MY ASS!!!!! OHHHH MANNN IT’S LIKE THEY FORGOT ONE OF HIS CORE PERSONALITY TRAITS. He has like four main ones: food, anxiety, engineer, friend. Like, how hard is it to remember? Look, I get that Pidge needed her time to shine, but this is honestly insulting to Hunk’s character.
Hunk doesn’t understand the engineering tree thing. He should have been able to light one of those trees up as well as Pidge. He’s clearly brilliant, if the first season is anything to go by.
Fix
The easiest way to fix this is to have Hunk fixing some other part of the shield. He can’t be over there to deal with what the other paladins are dealing with, so Pidge fixes the problem. He tries to offer an explanation that’s just as unintelligible as Allura’s and Coran’s, and there you go, Hunk looks smart and we still have the same scene. Easy peasy.
Ok, the way to deal with this is to have him have a reaction similar to Pidge’s when she meets the robot (i.e. silently freaking in the background). Or, have him be equally involved as Pidge, with him offering a supporting role to her freakouts.
Just have him do the tree thing. Maybe in the background or something.
“Eye of the Storm”
Bitch
Hunk not giving two fucks about what weirdo chemicals he baked in is a little weird. 
Hunk is the engineer- why isn’t he the one helping Coran? Sigh
Fix
Have him be a little concerned over it. Possibly, have him and Pidge learn Altean together- good Hidge bonding moment!
More Pidge and him- have them figure out the thing with the cookies! Tech buddies! Bonding! Excellent stuff!!
“Ark of Taujeer”
Not much to complain about here! Hunk discovering a new lion power! Very good stuff! Him single-handedly holding up the ship to save it from certain death? There’s my boy. The only improvement- make this the Hunk-centric! More Hunk! (Repeating thing of Hunk helping out an alien people- like the Balmerans)
“Space Mall”
Bitch
Hunk getting in trouble for eating all those free samples- yet another fat joke- could have found a different way to get to this scenario.
Fix
A couple of different ways to get to this situation. Hunk could intervene in a conflict between the manager/owner and a customer. He could either a) Be roped into dishes along with the customer or take their place or b) Challenge the owner and have a possible cook off. Or, Hunk could try one food thing, find it disgusting, and insist on taking over the kitchen.
“The Blade of Marmora”
Bitch
Yet again, barely any Hunk. Man, they really sidelined the other characters for Shiro’s and Keith’s development.
No reunion post Galra!Keith revelation. Where were our reaction!faces
Fix
More Hunk. My response to nearly everything this season. Maybe more of him worrying over what’s going on down there?
Hunk reaction face- we know how he feels in “The Belly of the Weblum”, but I would have loved to see his first thought at finding out the news.
”The Belly of the Weblum”
Bitch
This really should have been a Hunk-centric episode. This episode had more time for Hunk than any episode other than “The Depths” which was established as Lance-centric. Keith should have been given less screen time with ‘mystery Galra’ give Hunk more screen time. He’s a little too goofy in this one (especially him getting stuck-again), but this is a better episode than most for Hunk.
Fix
The only other episode that could have been a centric was “Ark of Taujeer”, but that’s also got a lot of Allura and Keith stuff. In this episode the only people that Hunk has to fight for screen time are Keith and ‘mystery Galra’. Keith had his own centric and was featured heavily in several episodes, so it wouldn’t matter to much if he was sidelined for this episode. Have Hunk be responsible for the majority of the smart stuff regarding the Weblum, and just spend more time on him figuring it out. Also remove some of the “bumbling” crap. Hunk’s not an idiot.
“Escape from Beta Traz”
N/A. Hunk’s not in this episode and it doesn’t really make sense for him to be.
“Stayin’ Alive”
Sad about Hunk and Shay not getting to see each other again, but it doesn’t really fit within the context of the plot. Also, would love to have seen Hunk and Pidge helping Slav with the teludav.
”Best Laid Plans” and “Blackout”
Since these are basically one big finale, I’m gonna talk about them together.
Bitch
Like many times throughout this season, and like anyone who wasn’t Keith or Shiro this season, Hunk is sidelined once again. He doesn’t have much going on beyond fighting in his lion and as Voltron.
Fix
One big standout moment for Hunk- that really emphasizes his awesomeness as a paladin.
Final Thoughts
They better give him a fucking arc in Season 3 or I will blow a gasket. Hunk deserved better this season.

After School Snacks That Won’t Ruin Dinner!
Need after school snacks that won’t ruin dinner? Yes, it’s possible!
Kids area always hungry when they get home from a hard day of learning. They need brain food to power them through their homework! But that doesn’t mean their snacks have to fill them up so much that they won’t want to eat dinner. In fact, there are some snacks that will fill them up just enough to get them through and still leave them hungry enough to eat what you put on the evening dinner table.
EASY SNACKS FOR KIDS TO MAKE:
One of the biggest gifts we can give our kids is learning how to feed themselves well. This lesson can easily start with snacks! Kids feel empowered when they know their way around the kitchen, and giving them healthy options is the best way to ensure they learn how to work with healthy, real foods. Simple snacks are something all school aged children should be able to manage. So set them up for success! Make sure the fridge is stocked and that they know what they can help themselves to when they get home. It takes the stress off of you too!
KID APPETIZERS:
If you feel a little lost trying to stock the fridge for the kids, think of kid appetizers. Just small, healthy bites that are easy to serve and have a nice dose of nutritional value. Think whole, real foods in small pieces. Things like, carrots and hummus or celery and nut or seed butter. Real foods they can easily grab from the fridge and put together without cutting or cooking.
HEALTHY SCHOOL SNACK LIST:
Make a list. Life is always easier with a list. Think of all the real, wholesome foods your kids actually like, and the pair them together in tasty ways. Posting that list on the fridge does double duty because then your kids also know what is available to them with a simple glance at the fridge door. I actually found a magnetized white board that I attached to the fridge so Mini Chef can easily cross things off as he eats them. This way I know I need to get more when he runs out.
EASY TO MAKE SNACKS WITHOUT COOKING
If your kids come hope to an empty house, it can be a little nerve-racking to think of them turning on the stove while you’re still at work. Especially if they are on the younger side. Using real foods that can be eaten raw or things that can be taken out of the fridge and don’t need warming are your best bets. Even if your kids know how to work the microwave, fresh, real foods are the best nutritionally. So make sure they have access and know how to put together combination they will enjoy.
AFTER SCHOOL SNACKS THAT WON’T RUIN DINNER:
FROZEN GRAPES (Photo & Recipe courtesy of eMeals)
After a long day at school, few things are as refreshing and refueling as these little goodies. Kids love them, they won't make a mess, and they are easy to put in a bag or bowl to munch on while doing homework.
HUMMUS WITH WHOLE GRAIN PITAS OR VEGGIES (Photo & Recipe courtesy of eMeals)
This one is fantastic. It gives your kids fiber and whole grains and/or veggies and is just filling enough in smaller amounts to still leave them hungry for dinner.
WATERMELON CUBES WITH FETA (Photo & Recipe courtesy of eMeals)
This delicious treat gives them a little bit of sweet with a little bit of tang along with some hydration. Not a bad deal after a hard day of learning!
GRANOLA (Photo & Recipe courtesy of TheTomatoTart.com)
Granola is always a wonderfully portable and filling snack. This delicious recipe won't leave you or your kids wanting.
CUMIN DUSTED CARROT FRIES (Photo & Recipe courtesy of KitchenTreaty.com)
If you have a little time before you pick the kids up, or your looking for a way to get the kids helping in the kitchen, nothing could be more fun than making these Cumin Dusted Carrot Fries! Yum!
AFTER SCHOOL CRACKERS
If your kids like a little more crunch in their after school snacks, try nut butter on whole grain crackers and top with a little fruit!
PERFECTLY HEALTHY BANANA PUDDING
You can't go wrong with only the purest of ingredients in a bowl of pudding. If your kids want a little something sweeter after school, you can give them this without any guilt or worry whatsoever! Check it out here.
COCONUT POPCORN
Popcorn is the ultimate kid's snack. I haven't met a child yet who doesn't like popcorn and it's quick and easy to make! Try this recipe here for Coconut Popcorn. Soooo good!
BLUEBERRY COTTAGE CHEESE
Most kids don't generally go straight for a container of cottage cheese. But add a little fruit, some chia seeds and maybe a touch of honey, and they'll be asking for it again and again. Check it out here.
CHIPS & GUACAMOLE
Guacamole is easy to make and will definitely help fill up those little tummies without getting them too overly full. Try this recipe!
BANANA WRAPS
If you're looking for a fast and easy snack they can even eat on the go (like in the car on the way home!), this is a wonderful option.
Edit
What do you think? Pretty good list? What do you typically feed your kids after school?

Day two - Straw Hats
Day 2 – Strawhat Pirates
God, you hated fights. You didn’t understand them. If you had friends or a family, why waste the time you have with them by fighting?
Such were the thoughts running through your head as you watched a couple walk by, clearly angered by one another. Then again, you’d never really been in a fight like that yourself. That is, you’d never had any people to have any fights with. You were used to it of course, you’d been alone for as long as you could remember, but that still didn’t mean you thought it would be nice to have a family.
“Spare change?” you asked a group of people walking by. There were two women, one with ginger hair and one with dark hair, a dark-haired boy with a scar under his eye, another boy with a long nose and… was that a skeleton?
The ginger haired woman ignored you and kept on talking with her friend, not even sparing you a glance. You weren’t surprised. The dark-haired boy who walked behind her however, looked at you curiously.
“What are you doing?” he asked with a tilt of his head. Now that surprised you.
“She’s just begging for money, Luffy, ignore her” the first woman told him.
“But why?” he asked her.
You chuckled, drawing his attention back to you. “Because I don’t have an money and I’m hungry” you said with a small smile on your face. Honestly, didn’t he know anything of the world? In a strange way you hoped he didn’t. He looked kind, the less cruelty he came across, the better.
“Shishishi, I knew that!” he laughed. “I’ve seen a lot of people like you when I was young! I’m just wondering why you’re just sitting here instead of doing something about it! Why not just catch some food?”
The people around him reacted in different manners, from exasperation to amusement. “Maybe because not everyone is a monster like you?” the long-nosed man deadpanned.
“Shishsishi! Yeah, I am pretty strong!” he laughed. But then he tilted his head again in confusion. “But can’t you steal? Me and my brothers used to do it all the time! Shishishi, it was really fun!”
You grinned sheepishly. “I tried that once, but I’m no good at it.”
“Can’t your friends help you out?” he asked. That was the question that actually made you freeze.
“I haven’t got any” you admitted quietly, looking down.
“You’re alone?” the woman with the dark hair asked. You nodded in return.
The boy, Luffy, crouched in front of you and frowned. “But… tonight’s Christmas eve…”
Your eyes widened a little. “Really? I didn’t know. I don’t really have a calendar or a watch… I tend to lose track sometimes. But why does it matter anyways?”
His frown deepened. “Because nobody should be alone, especially not on Christmas. Makino taught me that.”
You… actually didn’t know how to respond to that. You just stared at him, wide eyed.
You were even more surprised when his frown suddenly turned into what could possibly be the widest grin you’d ever seen. “Oh, I know, you can come and celebrate Christmas with us!”
“W- What?? But you- you- huh?? You don’t even know my name!”
He laughed. “Then tell me, stupid!”
“Him of all people, calling someone stupid…” the red haired woman said.
For some reason, the interaction made you smile. “I’m (y/n), nice to meet you.”
“I’m Luffy! This is Nami, and Robin, that’s Brook and this is Usopp!”
“Pleased to meet you. Ah, might I see your panties?”
“Likewise, and no, I’d rather not.”
“Soooo, will you join us?”
“I’d love to” you smiled.
(ノ>ω<)ノ :。・:*:・゚’★,。・:*:♪・゚’☆
The Christmas dinner they had was, well, if you had to describe it in one word, you would say magical. The people were all incredibly kind to you, except for Zoro, who was a little distant, but you had been made aware that he was like that all the time. Nevertheless, all of them welcomed you onto their ship with open arms. In the case of the cook it had been quite literally; he had been ecstatic when he found out his captain had invited a girl over for dinner. They had also been quick to involve you in their antics; Usopp had explained how it was a regular thing that Sanji and Zoro would fight over the smallest things, Nami said she was sorry for brushing you off the way she had earlier (but not for not giving you any money, for that she’d never be sorry), after which Robin explained the navigator’s love for money and her refusing to go into therapy over it, despite Chopper’s insisting. They made you feel welcome, and oh heavens, that was without even mentioning the food. It was probably the best food you’d ever had, albeit that you hardly ever had any normal meals in the first place. When Sanji had heard about this, he’d all but had a heart attack.
After a while, you started wondering if this was what it was like, to have friends, to have a family. You were immensely grateful that Luffy had invited you without even a moment’s hesitation.
However, when the evening came to a close, and you were outside alone for a moment to catch a breath, you couldn’t help but feel a little sad. They were pirates, adventurers, and they would be moving on soon. You suddenly realised that you’d miss them when they were gone. You didn’t get time to continue your train of thought however when the sound of a door opening and closing came from behind you.
“It’s nice out here, isn’t it?” Robin said when she stood next to you.
“Yes, it is” you smiled. The grassy deck of the Thousand Sunny laid before you, and the slowly falling snow only added to the peaceful scene.
“Won’t you come back inside? Before Luffy notices you’re missing” she giggled.
You smiled. The rubber captain had certainly rubbed off on you in the last few hours, even more that you’d thought possible. “I will, but I just needed some air.”
She chuckled. “I know the feeling. Their antics need… getting used to.”
Her comment made you laugh. “That’s one way of putting it.”
“But tell me,” she started when your laugh had died down, “is something bothering you?”
You shrugged. “Not really, I’m just wondering how strange it’s going to be when you guys leave. I’ve never missed someone before…”
She looked at you with an amused glint in her eyes.
“… What?”
“You really don’t know, do you?”
“Know what? What are you on about?”
She giggled again, hiding her smile behind her laugh. “You’ll see.” And with that, she went back inside. You followed her lot long after.
(ノ>ω<)ノ :。・:*:・゚’★,。・:*:♪・゚’☆
You had spent the night on the ship, and the next morning you were getting ready to leave when Luffy looked at you strangely.
“What are you doing?” he asked.
“Erm… Leaving?” you deadpanned.
“Oh god,” Usopp groaned, “not this again… I swear, once he gets an idea in his head…”
Nami merely grumbled as she tossed Robin some money. “Of course he would. Why do I even place bets against you anymore?” Robin merely grinned in response.
“But why? I mean, you’re part of the crew now, right?”
You blinked a few times, not knowing whether you’d understood him correctly. “I’m sorry, I think I misunderstood what you just said…”
“Shishishi, you’re not very clever, are you?”
“LIKE YOU’RE ONE TO TALK!” the people around you shouted, while the captain just laughed.
“You said yesterday you’d join us, so you’re one if us now!”
Your brain malfunctioned for a moment, before the penny dropped. “But- wah- no, when I said that I’d join you it was to celebrate Christmas! Not to join your crew!”
“No it wasn’t!”
“Yes it was! Why would you even want me in your crew? I can’t do anything, I can’t fight, I don’t have any talents, I’m just… me.”
“Exactly!” he cheered.
“Oooooh, I don’t understand you at all” you groaned.
“Get used to it” Zoro shrugged. “Once he’s made up his mind, there’s no changing it.”
“But- but-“
Luffy moaned in exasperation. “Come on already! You’re nakama! You don’t need to be anything different that you are to be a friend, you’re my friend because of who you are! Besides, you can always learn new things on the way, right? And you said so yesterday! You joined, no taking it back! Join my crew!”
It wasn’t really a question or an order, more like a statement. It was so obvious to him; you didn’t have any friends, then they came and suddenly you weren’t alone anymore. To you, it was a Christmas miracle. To him, it was just plain simple.
So who were you to say no?

Chase The Lightning Chapter Two
Sleeping still. Kagome paced at the foot of the bed. As far as she could tell Inuyasha hadn't moved since she'd helped him into the bed the night before, and it was nearly midday. What if he died? what if she had done something wrong? No he'll be alright.  So this is Inuyasha? The man sango had spoken so fondly of. The man everyone else in the village apparently hated. Why because he's hanyou? That doesn't make any sense to her. The villagers told her Inuyasha was mean and dangerous. Sleeping he looked perfectly safe and tame.  He was perhaps the handsomest man she had ever seen, his skin was bronzed from the sun and his hair was thick and the most beautiful silver. Even after making sure his wound was no longer bleeding, Kagome continued to watch him. She had never seen a man bare chested before,and she was certain they didn't all look like him. Kagome was fascinated by the corded muscles in his shoulders and arms, and his smooth chest that rose and fell with every breath. She reached over to brush the hair out of his face, her finger had barely touched his face when he came awake.Grasping her wrist in a sudden movement that shocked her, then his eyes opened. Deep amber eyes that caused her to freeze. She was so scared she could hardly breathe, much less move. Who are you?  He rasped out. Let me go, Kagome demanded weakly. Answer me first. Kagome found herself in an awkward position, half leaning, half standing. Kagome Marie Higarashi. Now, can you please release me? Inuyasha loosened his hold a little but continued to hold her.  What are you doing here? WellI came to see Sango and Miroku but they're not here, so I have to wait 'till they return.They wont be back for another two months or more. Two months! Are you sure? Kagome felt distressed.Well maybe I can get started without Sango. Start what? Thats none of your business Mr. Takahashi .He closed his eyes again.  Last night you called me Yasha. Last night was an emergency. I'm going to make you some tea. I don't want any. Well you'll drink it, or I'll pour it down your throat Mr Takahashi, Kagome warned. He opened his eyes again, "Yes ma'am", he agreed meekly. Thank you for helping me, you did a good job. Thank you, my father is a doctor. So you helped your father in his work? Oh good heavens no, my mother would never have allowed that. But he did talk about his work a lot and I usually remember what I hear. She leaned over him and felt his head, no fever thats good.I know who you are he said triumphantly. Of course you do, I just told you. You're Kagsi", he fininshed for her.Oh I hate that nickname. Sango calls me that. Since your such a good friend of Sango's you can call me Kagome,but never again call me Kagsi.  She gave him her best glare, and Inuyasha was glaring right back at her, with his eyes as hard and cold as any she had ever seen, but there was also a sadness in them as well.Would you like some sugar in your tea Mr. Takahashi? Oh never mind, you need the sugar to get your energy back. She turned and leftbefore he could answer.Inuyasha finished his tea and had almost immediately fallen asleep. Every few minutes she looked in on him why did he make her feel this way? Why did she feel like she had to be near him? This was not part of her plan.Kagome heard a horse approaching, she went to the window and saw a man riding towards the cabin.kagome smoothed her skirt and walked out the door, the man jumped from the horse you must be miss higarashi? Mrs Maxwell’s cousin he said. yes kagome stepped forward. I hate to bother you but Suicotsu stopped by yesterday afternoon and let me know you were staying heremy name is bankotsu he suggested I might look in on you now and again but m afraid thats not why i'm here I got me a little problem." Kagome released a breath she had been holding. Bankotsu not only looked like he was rolling in dirt he smelled like he hadn't had a bath since springtime. A problem ? Is there anything I can do? I don't suppose you've seen a half breed son of a....fella here abouts? do you by chance mean Inuyasha takahashi?...why yes ma'am his horse showed up at the stables last night with blood all over the saddleI reckon he's lying dead somewhere, Inuyasha is here. His horse came back last night and your only just now looking for him? He was shot last night and he is now sleeping. If you would like to have a doctor look at him. Bankotsu took a step back, a doctor for Inuyasha? Hell he would have nothing to do with a doctor. I'll just take him back to the bunk house and we'll keep an eye on him. (yeah until he was dead) I'm not letting you take him anywhere. I think he should stay here with me. Ma'am? I cant let you do that. It ain't right. My father is a doctor. I have helped him for years,I know what I am doing and I know how to care for a gun shot wound. I’m sure you can ma'am, but I reckon I should...I’m very close to loosing my temper right now," the last time I turned someone over to someone else the man died.HE STAYS HERE!!! Yes ma'am I understand, I do have my hands full with finishing the house and running the ranch. I reckon if you insist I'll leave Inuyasha with you. Thank you, you are soooo kind, he'll be just fine here. Bankotsu backed away from her, her chance to get rid of Inuyasha had come and gone should she have turned him over to Bankotsu? Her instincts said no. She didn't trust this man. Inuyasha was her responsibilty and no one would watch over him like she would.                                                     Kagome bent over the stove in earnest, smelling the stew to make sure it smelled edible. Her first meal, or at least the first she had prepared alone. Her mother had never let her or her sister near the kitchen. Fortunately Songo had a cook book in her pantry and she followed the instructions to the letter and her stew smelled good. Inuyasha hadn't made a sound, but Kagome seemed to sense that he was watching her. What are you doing out of bed? Youneed several more days in bed Mr Takahashi. "Inuyasha", My name is Inuyasha." What are you doing up?".I smelled your cooking and it made me hungry Inuyasha said not moving an inch, I hope your a better cook then Sango. I  don’t know this is my first meal. I'm sorry to hear that. Back to bed with you Mr Takahashi....Inuyasha. Are you going to be a difficult patient Mr. Takahashi?  Probably kagsi." I TOLD YOU not to call me that. Well, I TOLD YOU not to call me Mr Takahashi. Alright yasha. I can handle that, kagome conceded. Lowering him onto the bed,she had been trying to not look at his bare chest. It was disconcerting and his face was even worse."She hadn't come all this way to become Infatuated with a pretty face. We're going to have to get you a change of clothes.Ive got clean clothes in the bunk house. the old bunk house out back.  Inuyasha laid his head back and closed his eyes,and let out a long breath. The long building by the barn? Inuyasha cracked an eye open. Yes, no one uses it anymore. There's a new one close to the big house. Kagome put her hand on his forehead,  no fever that is a good sign I'll bring you some clean clothes,and if the stew turns out to be good I'll bring you that as well. What are you doing here? I told you I'm here to see Sango. Did you run away kagome? What if I did? You should be grateful that I ran away when I did or you'd be dead.I guess thats true, but i wonder why a little girl with soft white skin who never had to dirty her hands in the kitchen would run away from home? Not that it is any of your business but my father was about to force me to marry a man I detest. Force you? i cant imagine. Neither could I. It was so unlike daddy, hes not my type. Hojo is to thin and boring, he cant even dance. Daddy said i needed Discipline .Noooo. Yes. How barbaric to force you to marry a man who is to thin and can't dance.  How old is this man? I Don’t know in his twenties I guess, Kagome looked up to see a wry smile on his face and realized Inuyasha was teasing her. Inuyasha closed his eyes. You're a despicable cad. Ive been called worse. When he opened his eyes he realized he'd spoken to an empty room. Why did that thought bother him?  Kagome left behind a trace of her scent, a scent of crushed flowers and springtime. What on earth had driven him to get out of bed and search for her. It hadn't been the food that lured him. It had been his own damn curiosity. He heard her in the kitchen and he wanted, no needed, another look at her. He wanted to know if she was really as beautiful as he remembered. And he also wanted to know if she would tell him Bankotsu had stopped by that afternoon and that she had sent him away. Why had she done that?  And what does she want from him? He was disgusted with himself that he liked the feel of her hands on his forehead,that he liked the way the sun came through the window and lit her hair.She was just another spoiled little rich girl who judges people by appearance and broke mens hearts for her own amusement. But she smelled like crushed flowers. Was he falling for her? Who was he kidding? No one could love a hanyou. He learned that a long time ago. He was still thinking about her scent when she reappeared in the doorway and tossed a clean pair of pants and a white shirt on the bed. If your capable of walking to the kitchen, you're capable of dressing yourself. Before he could think of a clever reply she was gone again leaving only her scent behind.

february: week 4
20: ho hum. i was in much dull pain in the morning. i did work from home today and i worked on looking into using camtasia and recording videos in between meetings today. kevin didn’t have work today so he spent his time making ratatouille pasta for us for lunch. thank you <3 it was delicious haha. he also gamed until he got sick of dota 2. i exercised after work. i did 45 minutes of kickboxing with weights and then i showered right after so that my hair would dry in time for sleep. everything felt good (other than my stomach) today. like it was nice to work out at like 5-6 pm again and shower at an earlier time. we spent the rest of the evening watching ‘izombie.’ it’s getting more interesting. we had pasta for dinner but also ate pizza... we were really hungry for some reason? we didn’t get full, which was weird. i looked up why i felt like i wasn’t full and it’s because it’s my time of month. apparently bodies burn more calories during this time lol. so we ate half a pizza and some pasta. kevin vacuumed and swiffered while i got ready for bed. then we played some pokemon and i ko’d before 1 am. zzzz. here’s to spending more time with kevin on a weekday <3
21: i felt energized when i woke up and ready for work. the train was a bit late though so i got to work a bit later than i expected and i also took a nap on the train...so then i felt really sleepy coming into the office. the office was pretty full today! hehe. cole, charles, and i went to kane’s donuts and started our mid-morning off right. i love my t7 team. :) john sat at my desk yesterday because the heater was on (no one was there to turn it off) and the building was like 80 degrees and being in the separate office was even hotter :O haha good thing i didn’t come in. jim was also melting... the morning was hard for me because i was sleepy but i did learn more about camtasia and made a to-do list for myself. i had 3 meetings today so i had to juggle videos and meetings like yesterday. i realized that i can’t do video work in the office because it’s an open space and that i will work from home to do video work from now on.
i was in meetings for the rest of the day. i bonded with charles and cole over pokemon LOL and john was a bit bewildered about our generation because cole and i brought in our 3ds’s to work :P i left work at 3 pm after a meeting to catch the train before my last one at 4:30 pm. i picked up my memebox package and then got comfy and got back to work. after the meeting, i looked up where to eat for boston’s restaurant week and i got super excited. hehehe. then i made shiitake rice and prepped the veggies for dinner. i started exercising after and kevin came back. i finished exercising while kevin finished cooking dinner. then we watched 2 episodes of izombie while eating dinner and kevin made me feel bad about spoiling the show but then he revealed that he also knew -__-” JERK haha. then i got ready for bed and ko’d at like 1 am.
22: mmm i had a late morning. kevin went to work and then i got up, ate cereal, and went straight to recording and editing these video tutorials. it’s a lot harder than i expected and i’m not enjoying it as much as making templates for clients right now, ahha. i’m not comfortable with making video tutorials yet. i took a short break for lunch and watched the latest episode of ‘jane the virgin.’ i went back to editing and messing with camtasia until around 5 pm. it was a really chill day. i played pokemon for a bit and then made dinner. kevin was really tired for some reason and asked if he could just chill on the couch for a bit. he ended up taking a nap :P i made pico de gallo (a very chunky one), shredded lettuce, washed the black beans, made rice, and baked chicken thighs. i was in love with the salad i got with cole so i wanted to make it at home. when i started eating it, i realized that i just made chipotle...LOL. i really liked the chicken but i think if the pico had smaller chunks of red onion and tomato, it would have tasted better. we watched two episodes of izombie and then kevin went to game. i played some pokemon; i’m trying to get a razor claw from jangmo-o T_T it’s so hard. i gave up and then did 20 minutes of obliques and 35 minutes of kickboxing. this video hurt more than the 45 minute one! maybe i should skip weights for now. i went to shower and then kevin and i played pokemon in bed before sleeping at like 1:30 am.
23: lol i guess i’m working from home the rest of the week? it’s been hard trying to motivate myself to make tutorials and videos. i feel like i’m bad at explaining things and i need feedback. hopefully, phil lets me know what he thinks today. i made a small to-do list for the morning and then put on some music and tried to pump myself up. oh, my facebook cleanse has been going alright. i still open up my chrome browser and pause and then close it again because that habit has been ingrained in me. x__x maybe i should go for a full facebook deactivation? that seems too intense though. i also need to stop going on snapchat so much. i’m gonna start that cleanse soon too. haha i waste too much time on these apps when i could be playing pokemon (not being on facebook opened that up) or even reading. that’s my other goal. i think if i keep with this cleanse, i will be able to fit in both. i won’t give up my youtube videos though. the downside is that i usually find weird and interesting things on facebook to read and stuff, but i can also educate myself with reading.
anyway, it was a pretty productive day. i figured out how i want to approach the tutorials and etc. i got to talk with phil and sultan as well. we had a somewhat late and long client meeting, which ended my day at about 6:45 pm... i also was frustrated with catching the ultra beasts in pokemon so my mood was kinda ruined for the rest of the day. we ate leftovers for dinner and watched ‘izombie’ after i had a tantrum x__x then kevin dropped the corner iphone on my eyebrow bone on accident and i cried again LOL. it hurt :( but i think it was also because of the shock. kevin went to game and then i pushed myself to workout even though i was super tired from my emotions. i did an intense 30 minute tabata workout and i did 15 minutes or so of hip hop cardio. i haven’t done hip hop cardio in a while. then i showered and kevin and i played pokemon before bed and then we went to sleep at around 1 or 2 am. i caught a good nihilego before sleeping toooo.
24: i got up and scheduled things for next week. it’s a bit of a weird week so i hopefully will be in the office for 2.5 days and then the rest will be wfh for videos and late-ish meetings. then i got on a two hour training session and then right after, i microwaved lunch and then went into another meeting and after that, another two hour session. i caught 4 fairly good pheromosas and took a break from pokemon after learning that xurkitree is a pain in the butt to catch and to get a good one without a synchronized abra. blech. i spent an hour planning to start a video series called, “2MINShowcase.” it will be a series of videos showcasing products, brands, and services that i love and enjoy. i’m excited to start! it’s hard organizing and curating these collections though. i think i have one to shoot tomorrow! i’m going to shoot with my iphone 7 and edit with camtasia as a nice little exercise for now.
kevin stayed later than he expected and didn’t go climbing right after work. instead, he came back right when i was going to prep the pork cutlets to make tonkatsu. lol, i would have started prepping earlier if i knew. i turned off my work phone when i was done with work for the day and kevin sent messages there so i missed it by 30 minutes or so. well, we talked while we cooked together. kevin did a really dumb thing: put cold water in a pot of super hot oil. omg...it made a big oily splash when he did that and it scared the shit out of me. sometimes, he just doesn’t think in the kitchen... no one was hurt though, thankfully. we finished preparing dinner with no more kitchen incidents. we had tonkatsu spring rolls while watching the newest episode of supernatural. then kevin went to game after i felt like he insinuated that i am fat (he told me to exercise and i asked him if i should and then he continued to say that people run in the morning all the time and he compared all of the exercises i do to that. -__- then he said that he knows not to lift everyday but it doesn’t really apply to cardio. idk if you would get offended, but i did).
i think i actually ko’d for a bit and then woke up and did my damn 500 calorie burning popfitness video. then i showered and washed my hair. i don’t remember the last time i washed it LOL. it’s been a while because i worked from home basically the entire week. hmmm. anyway, i’m getting a little crazy from staying inside. i watched the free episode of the ‘try guys’ youtube red series and then went to sleep at like 2 or 3 am.
25: uhhhh my body was awake at 9:30 am but i got up at like 12:50 pm LOL. kevin made us breakfast: egg mcmuffin with leftover pico. i think the pico i made has a bit too much red onion... it’s upsetting my stomach in a way. i think i need to stop eating it lol. i watched ‘reign’ while kevin watched a dota game. then he tried getting a haircut but he had to wait after 9 other people...so he rq’d and got us bubble tea and then came back. after kevin left though, i went straight to recording my video series. the iphone 7 camera is soooo nice. i hate that my oneplus one always tries to auto-focus so it kind of zooms in and out. it’s so not cool. for some reason, it took 1-2 hours for my iphone to upload 17 1-minute or less videos to dropbox... so i sat and waited and edited as each clip came in. ugh. oh, kevin came back and then went straight to rock climbing. lol i lost track of time because of editing.
then i had to take a break and ate leftovers for dinner with kevin. we watched two episodes of izombie and then i went back to editing. i finished and tried uploading but then i was slowing down kevin’s connection so he restarted the router and i stopped (even though i was super excited about uploading it to youtube and facebook) -____-” so i just did hip hop cardio while he gamed. he finished his game like 30 minutes later and asked and i said no because it was too late for people to even see it if i posted it. ugh. i came back and uploaded it after my workout. then youtube took down my video T__T so i spent a few hours looking up youtube rules and violations and etc. then i finally went to shower and then i got in bed and played a few minutes of pokemon. it was like 4-5 am by the time we went to sleep LOL. kevin was up watching a dota tournament.
26: we got out of bed at like 2 pm or something LOL gg us. then kevin made us pico with scrambled eggs. it definitely made the red onion more tolerable. then he gamed for a bit while i finally uploaded my video to facebook, curled my hair, and then got ready for groceries. oh, we also planned food this week in bed. we didn’t need to get much because we’re going to new york on friday. so excited! we went to kam man and got some drinks to bring over to winston’s and jeanne’s along with groceries. we actually had to stock up on a few things so we did a lot of grocery shopping in general. then we went to roche bros and finally stopped at bj’s. we spent like 2 hours grocery shopping because i had coupons for bj’s and there were two coupon books so we had to check if each item we wanted was worth or not. we ended up getting more than what we needed...like chicken nuggets for example haha.
we got back, unloaded, kevin started cooking hong shao rou, i started laundry and cleaned the bathroom and then went to cutting apples for our puff pastry apple hand pies. it took me forever to find the recipe michelle gave me for the filling of an apple pie and also the other recipe i used to bake the hand pies and how to seal them as well. it was crazy. we ate dinner while standing and waiting for other things to cook. then i assembled the pies, put them in the oven and then we put up all of the artwork and posters we have gotten for the apartment so far. while kevin was putting up the final one, i took down our christmas tree. kevin finished putting it in the box while i showered at like 12:30 am or something. it was late af. i finished folding the clothes and then i stayed up a bit watching clothesencounters’ new video. i went to sleep at like 1 or 2 am but i think i actually fell asleep asleep at 3 am or whenever kevin got into bed x__X; this is what happens when you get up at 2 pm when you got shit to do LOL!
