*died.*

PLEASE FORGIVE ME! I'm sorry I disappeared from the radar. I was just preparing for the physics contest, which I will have on Monday. and I also have a german contest this Friday. maybe I'm a quiet person, but my ambitions are very loud and I intend to get first place everywhere, lol…

so!

first.

MY GODNESS, nooo, don't call me cute or sweet. 😭😭😭 my heart is very weak and may not be able to stand it. again, God, thank you very much for your kind words and mutual understanding that you give me. hehe, I hope you are not tired of my long messages, which equally kill our time.

my request!

I'm dying. I'm really dying a happy person. I'm so glad you liked it so much that you started writing it so quickly. BUT, please take your time and keep giving yourself time to rest and introspect. everything is fine, I will humbly wait for this masterpiece. and I'm always here to talk about the motives why some characters would become yandere. I'm sure that the main reasons that would trigger my resilient and independent Peggy would be the desire to protect and take care of the object of her "love", given that people who are too close to Peggy can be killed.

so……. yes.

Oh and, haha, that's unusual to hear. I'm not a fan of horror movies or sitcoms, (unlike my mother), but I would love to watch with you what you think is a real masterpiece that we just have to watch.

next, emotions. of course, emotions and feelings are very… a sensitive topic. as well as dont revealing your such emotions and feelings to people. everyone has their own reasons for this. and I am so glad that you are really getting help in this matter. it's true as an outlet after these messages with a kind of self-autopsy in front of a stranger like me.🫂

and no. we and your loved ones are lucky to have you. and, probably, I'm not thinking very constructively in order to decompose all your positive and negative traits and behavior in order to determine whether you are a curse or a blessing...

Rather, this is what I want to see.

let's remember a glass of water. someone will say that it is half full, and someone will think that it is half empty. in your case, if you were a glass of water, I would say "this glass is half full".

I do not know, but I'm again so embarrassed and happy at the same time from your post with Peggy and this spoiler……

I swear, while I'm at this olympics, one cell of my brain and the last cell of my nerves will probably be like:

"Peggy, Peggy, Peggy, Peggy fanfiction, dark-Peggy, Captain Carter, tumbler, Kaz, Kaz, Kaz, Kaz, be gay do crime, here we go lesbians, wAh uH BoH uHl, yoove gOht tO bE JOEking, God save Peggy Carter and her amazing accent"

AND OH MY GOD, HOW BEAUTIFULLY YOU PICKED UP THESE AESTHETIC PHOTOS AND HOW BEAUTIFULLY EVERYTHING IS DECORATED.

just don't think that I'm writing all this just because of my request. I just wanted to compliment you on your excellent sense of taste and impressive writing abilities. well, and of course in general, for your presence.

hmm.

hey, babe, do you know what the best thing your parents did?🧐🤨

*theatrical pause*

you!😎😜😈

(DISCLAIMER: IT'S A JOKE, I DONT KNOW, WHAT IF YOUR PARENTS ARE DOCTORS AND FIGHTING CANCER OR HELPING HOMELESS CATS AND DOGS, THANK YOU, BUT YOU'RE STILL THE BEST THING THEY DID)

oh my god if it isn't my favourite anon! hii darling i hope you're doing okay! <3 you'll absolutely smash those contests ik you will so good luck for them! sending much love and support for it! 💌

hey it's okay to be a lil quiet but have strong ambitions and aspirations fr, were all our own person simply trying to be in the world

agh i'm sorry dear :) i have a habbit of using nickname's especially to cute humans who deserve it. i'll protect your lil heart i promise! and of course my word's simply seek to tell the truth. <3 also i could never get bored of your messages even if they're long i love that you feel comfortable enough to send me messages like this, besides they make my days 🫶

god don't die on me before you have even read it please! 🙏 no but of course i'm enjoying writing it bit by bit, besides it's an interesting concept and i hope you thoroughly enjoy it when i do get around to posting it love! don't worry i won't over work myself sweet! i feel like the reason in this story peggy ends up becoming yandere is due to her past, she's always had to fight to become what she wanted. the serum everything, her brothers death. so in regards to this seeing reader with wanda and seemingly so helpless she has to have her, in a way her stomach seeths with a pain she hasnt felt in years. When she does get reader its the urge to keep herself and peggy has to tell herself that, it is all for the good of cause for her little thing she has to protect! <3 i got carried away then and it shows.. 🫠

god i'm such a sucker for them it's embarrassing. scream, the conjuring series, the visit, hereditary it's the adrenaline for me! dw i'll choose ones that won't scare the shite out of you i pinky promise love! :))

emotions are always a complicated little thing, silly but meaningful in every way. loki said love is like a dagger and sylvie said love is hate, whereas it's all of that and so much more just as any emotion is! it's apart of who someone is and how they can be seen. thank you so much darling, sometimes those who cannot be seen or known of are the best listeners, so always! 🫂

i'm lucky to have you all in my life in anyway shape or form, those we surround ourselves with always impact our inner selves and ofc. analysing whether one is a poet or a singer through words, or simply is just one at the edge of the shore is entirely a concept that doesn't define curse or blessing, i'm flattered and touched you'd simply let it be. your words speak everything so softly <33

thats an interesting concept of a glass of water and touching. from my perspective in regards to yourself you speak fondly of people in ways that even the sun is unable to touch, you perceive things amazingly and im blessed to get to speak to such a sweet anon 💞

bahaha you're adorably funny i love it! my fanfics are something idk even what they are but i do apologise (not really) that it's fumbling so much with that brain of yours. i just enjoy delving deep into gayness and chaos with stories and characters! :')

sO each photo really does have a meaning, small spoiler the middle photo of peggy is her face when she first sees said reader, the other two are secrets yet to be revealed! i love alluding to certain events with my photos i just enjoy searching for them and adding in secrets and clues to be revealed.

don't worry darling ik you're speaking from a kind heart and soul, your messages truly are touching and i adore speaking to you and receiving such compliments! you're truly a breath of incredible fresh air and sunshine 💌

BAHAHA such an adorable thing and snazzy thing to say! <33 yk what yours did? the same thing created such a beauty such a melody. LMAOAOAOA dont worry no offence taken (my parents are fine my love) 😂💌

i hope you've slept well though and taking care of yourself!! did you sleep well and remember to stay hydrated my dear :')

#anon! 💌#my cute peggy anon lover #kazasks ღ #this is the cutest anon #they are the sweetest anon to exist!

boyfriend zen headcanons

he genuinely loves you in any way, shape or form. if you crack open his mind its all just love for you in there, he gets so frustrated if you’re insecure with yourself because why!!! he adores you!!!

he can understand though, inside he’s insecure despite the act he maintains. its not as easy as just “you’re beautiful dont be sad” and then bam its gone. he knows that, but does everything in his power to help lessen it where he can. he knows how far some kind words can go, and he has a lot of kind words to throw your way.

will shower you head to toe in love. zen is a very touch oriented person, its a comfort thing to hold you nowadays. runs his hands all over your body and gets that one feeling in his chest, has to hold himself back. you know when you see something thats just too cute to comprehend you wanna grab it and scream to the world at how insanely cute it is? squeeze it super tight?

that’s the exact feeling he gets when he holds you. the weirdest urge ever but you just make him so !!!!!

sometimes acts on it, he’ll squeeze your face in his hand and just shake your head around a little before kissing you, calling you the cutest angel in the whole entire world. just can’t help himself when it comes to you.

he’s tall, if you ask him he’ll tell you he’s 6 feet. hes not hes 5’11 but he absolutely hates the fact jumin is taller than him.

so if you’re shorter, he loves when you wrap your arms & legs around him and hold him. literally crawl on him and just be a piece of cling wrap. absolutely loves it. climb him like a tree. if he’s cooking you can climb on his back and hold onto him from behind. you’re his little taste-tester while he cooks! ratatouille vibes

if you’re taller, you can get away with absolutely anything. tease him, pat his head, kiss his forehead. he turns into an entirely new zen. blushy mess.

tries his hardest to shape up when he enters into a relationship with you. eats better, stops drinking so much. more routine in his daily life which is nice for both you and him. doesn’t fully quit any of his bad habits but strongly cuts back on them. likes a cold beer with fried chicken here and there, cigarette when he’s really really stressed. but besides that its nothing near how it was before. skin is glowing, crops are watered. he is flourishing✨

he doesn’t bat an eye at things that are mostly frowned on for men. intense skincare, makeup, really takes care of his body on the outside. inside needs a little work because of his bad habits and diet, but the outside is well taken care of. he smells like god. his skin is exfoliated and soft. his hair is silk, actual silk. so if you wanna do facemasks, yes. if you wanna paint his nails, yes. if you wanna do his makeup, yes. you want him to wear a skirt, yes. but wont go in public though. thats only for your eyes to see.

onto dates! if you want romance he’s the man for you. its not extravagant like it might be with jumin, much more sentimental and small. picnics under the stars, he kisses you under the moonlight and showers you with words of affection. going to the theater together, but his attention just can’t seem to leave you. will make out with you five minutes in, both of you don’t even pay attention to the rest of the show. even just watching movies on the couch at home is a date. candles, snacks, blankets and of course your boyfriend all sprawled out whose just dying for some snuggles. loves when you lay on his chest and he gets to run his fingers through your hair, or if you run your fingers through his while the film plays. he actually prefers these little stay home dates, they’re so intimate to him. he likes it.

he’s not a huge fancy restaurant kinda guy, too expensive and they give you like two bites of food. he’s a tall man with a fast metabolism, none of this fancy french stuff can ever fill him up. so takeout from the best local joints, just because they know how to do it right. loves going to little food trucks with you or bringing takeout home and eating it together on the couch. he will steal little bites from your food when you guys eat. he just wants to try it!

zen i got the same exact thing you did

okay babe, just needed to make sure it was really the same 🥺

but to make up for his thievery, he’ll always give you the last bite of something. only one fish shaped red bean bun left? all yours babe♥︎ only catch is he gets to feed it to you~

PDA! zen is the KING of pda. absolutely no shame. loves it to bits. will stop walking in the middle of the sidewalk to have a full on make-out session. you never know when a camera is on you after all

if the paparazzi is around it fuels him even more. you better not be camera shy, because he lays on the romance anywhere and everywhere. there will be photos of you a flustered mess, one way or another. he’s always got an arm around you, a hand laced with yours. if anyone even looks at you funny he’ll glare at them and squeeze you to his side so tightly you’ll see stars. now if anyone flirts with you, they’re getting punched directly in the face OR his tongue will be down your throat right in front of them. either or.

for gift giving, he’s not able to go all out just because he doesn’t have too much money, but that almost makes it better when he does get you gifts. flowers often, but its always random! he doesn’t have a set day where he gives them to you, just to keep it all surprising. he’ll get you a heart shaped locket, but only he has the key. inside is a constellation that was in the sky the night you both shared your first kiss while stargazing. he doesn’t give you too many material gifts unless they have a lot of meaning behind them, gift giving just isn’t his love language, but he will spoil you with attention whenever he can. and honestly, thats worth way more than any gift he could ever buy.

loves when you show up to rehearsals and cheer him on from the sidelines. means the world to him. he waves to you before shows start, blows you big kisses at the end when everyone takes their bow. his co-stars tease him so much, but he doesn’t care. thats his girl out there <3

sings you love songs and dances with you in the living-room. you two are the couples people see through the windows and envy, romance movie style moments are common like that. his voice carries you away and surrounds you with love, he picks you up and twirls you around while dancing. its just you and him. time stands still in moments like that.

the best part of being in a relationship with zen is that you guys aren’t just a couple, you’re bestfriends too. sometimes you can be on the couch chatting about nothing in particular, laughing together. then he can say something insanely flirty to break up the casual mood, catching you so off-guard and making you just melt. its a friendship and relationship perfectly combined. you can always talk about anything and everything with him. he’s always there to depend on too, any time, any place. he’ll be there. anything for his beautiful jagiya~

Twice Reaction to their gf having a fansite

Anon: Can you do a Twice reaction to their S/o being their Fansite masternim?

Note: I had no idea how to write this one, cause i dont reaally know how fansites work but hope its not that terrible. thanks for requesting! hope you like it.

Mina: She looked at you with a confused look when you told her that you were one of Twice’s fansite. She wondered how you could be so sneaky about it and hide it from her the whole time you were dating. She was happy that the person she was in love with apreciated her work and was proud of it.

“Babe this is so cool, I didn’t know you had a fansite!“

Momo: She got so excited when she saw you editing a pic of her for your fansite. She asked herself why she didn’t notice earlier since every time you went with her to some concert you’d take the best pictures of her.

Dahyun: She already knew, you didn’t even needed to tell her, since she fell in love with you when she found your camera in the middle of the crowd in one of twice’s fanmeetings. Knowing you had a fansite would just be great for her, cause no matter how many people there is on the audience, your camera would always be her favorite.

Jungyeon: She would be a little weirded out at the thought of you being her girlfriend and having a fansite for her. She wouldn’t understand at first why you had a fansite if you were her girlfriend but soon would realize that that’s your way of admiring her work.

Tzuyu: Would tease you a lot about it, but would secretly love being photograped by you. She’d always invite you to twice’s concert and give you the best spots so you can take great pictures of her.

Chaeyoung: She would immediately want to check it out. And would absolutely love everything you did. It would just make her love you even more, because of the way you appreciated her.

Sana: Would start making you take your camera almost every where you went, just so you could photograph her doig the simplest things, even if she knew you couldn’t post “casual” pictures of her on your fansite.

“Is this a good angle, babe?“

Jihyo: Would get a little shy at first but then would just be curious at how you saw her through the lenses of your camera. And would be so happy and touched that you loved her so much you dedicated a whole fansite for her.

Nayeon: She would LOVE it. Would make you take so many pictures of her and after a concert when you showed her the photos you took she would just be saying how pretty she looks and how good of a photographer you were.

Thoughts on ur own gf?

WELL THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ASKING ANON CAUSE I LOVE TALKING ABT MY HONEYBEAN

Ok so first off, i just wanna start by saying that i love Cam sooooo soo much. Like shes legit not just my partner but one of my best friends and the first person i think of to tell anything to when something happens (whether it be bad or good) and it some ways ITS REALLY NOT FAIR THO

Like they KNOW i tell them absolutely everything cause literally if i even see a bird im like "BABE I SAW THE CUTEST BIRD DO YOU WANT TO SEE A PIC" and so if we're play arguing ill be like "fine i wont tell/show u this thing then" n she'll say "you'll tell me eventually" n its true tbh i give in everytime cause i like talking abt n sharing things with them n they know that nssbjsvs. An y wa y. Yea we're close ndvsnsvs

But ok so Cam is honestly really sweet and i think my favorite thing about them has to be that she's really like a v considerate and understanding person. Like im ngl ive had almost zero to no actual relationship experience and so theres alot of feelings and just *gestures* relationship things ive never experienced before. Like for example im not the best at like communicating personal things and problems in general but ive been working on trying to be better at it and they've been SO patient with me?? Like ive expressed all of this to them and theyve literally been so calm and sweet and assuring me that its okay and that things take time and they understand and are more than willing to be patient with me and i cant even begin to tell u how sweet that is and how much that really really even means to me to hear that, especially from her

And like if smtns wrong w me she'll ask if im okay and if i wanna talk abt whatever it is and i can literally go on abt it for hours while in a breakdown and the whole time we talk it over and they've always everytime been really sweet to me and, again, telling me i dont need to feel bad and reassuring me that stuff is okay and they completely listen and just are incredibly understanding and considerate. Like im abt to cry rn but i just love them so much 🥺 Like i always always feel so much better after talking to Cam about anything and that she really is so fuckin nice yo

Like i cant believe how lucky i got to be with them and just exist at the same time as them 😭

My baby is also so incredibly beautiful like h o l y s h i t. And she'll dissagree with me but its true! They have the most beautiful eyes and the cutest smile!!!!!!! They have dimples and i love them sI MUCH. THEYRE SO ADORABLE AND I WANT TO KISS THEM. N their dimples will show when he smiles and i just 🥺🥺

I honestly cant even tell you how happy and smiley i get when i see my baby and hearing their voice and laugh and its just literally the best thing

This is already long as hell but am i done? No BUT i will try n keep the rest shorter jdhdhs

One thing about cam is that they arent the best at verbally expressing their feelings into words while i v much am cause its my love language. But like the thing is they dont have say a mile long paragraph gushing feelings for me to know that im loved by them. They dont even have to say i love you (she does everyday but even still jdhdhdvs). Like all the above i said about them? Thats love. When she trusts me with stuff that she wouldnt/hasnt with anyone else? Love. When they send me memes and videos about interests i have cause they know id like it even tho theyve no clue about it at all? Love. When they /listen/ to me talk about kpop even tho they know jack shit but know i love it? Love. When we're just joking around together for hours? Love. When they hate hanging up the phone even when theyre really tired cause itd mean our call is officially over even tho we text immediately after? Love. When she sends me photos of their pets and of other animals cause she knows i love them? Love love love and i love love love them so so s o much

Theres so much more i wanna say but im gonna wrap this up so in conclusion: my girlfriend is the most amazing person and i love them more than words can even express. She's my honeybean and im so happy and grateful for them in my life

Heres an actual photo of me as a bonus!

#love you bb!!!!#asks #young anon #my lovely wifey

A Rose of Unconscious Beauty (Part 6)

All work and no play make Dante a dull devil, but when he finds out about his brother's flowery friend he sees an opportunity to cure his boredom. Well, that and his curiosity about what kind of woman catches Vergil's attention. So, he decides to spontaneously visit your garden to see what all the buzz is about.

Hope you enjoy these two finally meeting! And gardening puns...just all the gardening puns. 😆❤

Here’s the link to the list of all the flowers featured in this part. 🌹🥰🌹

Chapter 1: Meeting Dante

Life has been pretty good for Dante since he got back from his little foray into hell. He may still be in quite a bit of debt, but that never stops him from living life to the fullest. For the first time in a long time he does not feel so alone in the Devil May Cry shop. There is just one problem that plagues him now as he leans back in his chair, feet propped up on the edge of his desk as a huge overdrawn yawn escapes his mouth…

He is bored.

Very, very…BORED.

The occasional odd job usually keeps him entertained, but business has been slow recently. There is only so much games of pool and swimsuit magazines before Dante is positively itching to fight something…anything. Nero has taken advantage of this dry spell and is finally getting hitched to Kyrie. Even Vergil, who he annoys into fighting sometimes just for sheer fact that it relieves his boredom for a while, has taken to disappearing from time to time.

Oh yeaaaaah. The mysterious flowery friend.

Dante ponders the potential of that whole situation giving him something to do besides sitting alone in his shop. He did not think it strange when Vergil started to go out more…in fact, he is proud that his brother is finally embracing his humanity and making this world his home. But when his cranky brother came back to the shop with pretty little blue flowers wrapped around his beloved Yamato…well, now that just piqued his curiosity. He tries to goad Vergil into telling him where he got the flowers or where he has been disappearing off to lately, but that conversation usually ends with him being stabbed a lot. Dante got his answer one day when Nero asks if he knew this florist that his old man just recommended to him. It all just suddenly clicked. The constant visits, the soft cloud nine smiles, just the overall secrecy…

Vergil…has a crush.

Just the idea of his brother being head over heels for someone has Dante shaking his head in wonder. Vergil has already left the shop, probably visiting his florist friend if Dante had to guess. It happens to be the day that Nero and Kyrie are supposed to meet their savior of flowers. He wanted to tag along to see what all the hype is about, but Nero absolutely refused to let him. Usually, that is not enough to deter Dante, but then his nephew just had to sick Kyrie on him. And how could anyone say no to her? So, here he sits…extremely bored and very curious.

I have to know if it’s true…if my dumbass brother really is lovestruck…

A sudden idea pops into Dante’s head as he takes out his cellphone and begins to text:

Dante: Hey! Gonna see your old mans flower girl today, amiright?

Nero: NO. Forget it.

Nero: Im not spying 4 u

Dante: NO ONE said ANYTHING about spying!

Dante: Just a couple of pics!

Nero: NO U CREEP

Dante: OH C’MON!!!

Dante taps on his screen vigorously as he provokes his stubborn nephew to reply, but after a few minutes of continued silence he gives up. He rolls his eyes as he groans in mild irritation and drops his phone onto the desk. His nimble fingers stroke his scruffy chin in thought, wondering if there will ever be an end to this torturous boredom…then it hits him faster than the Devil May Cry van. Nico! Dante snaps his fingers and nods his head in approval at his own ingenious idea. He snatches his phone back up and begins to text again:

Dante: Heyyyyyyy

Nico: Wat

Dante: Wanna help a friend out?

Nico: Lemme guess

Nico: U want me to spy for ya, right?

Dante: A couple of pics is NOT spying

Nico: Yeah yeah whatever

There is a long pause and Dante almost thinks his last-ditch effort is a bust. Until…

Nico: Mayyyyybe I’ll do it

Nico: Wats in it for me tho?

Dante only has to think about her prize for second before replying.

Dante: I’ll let you check out my guns

Nico: Ive already seen my fair share of muscles

Dante: Im talking about Ebony and Ivory

Nico: U GOTTA FUCKIN DEAL

Dante clenches his fist in victory. Nico tells him to hold tight while she finds a good hiding spot and the perfect angle. So, he grabs the nearest swimsuit magazine to read while he waits for Nico’s sneaky photos.

He only has to read a couple of pages of articles and check out a few curvy ladies before his phone vibrates. “Well now…let’s see what we've got,” he announces aloud as his hand instantly picks up his phone and eagerly opens up the message. Here she is! is written below two pictures of a bubbly woman with a bright smile and lively eyes. In one photo she is sitting down at a garden table, and in the other she is standing by a bed of flowers. She is wearing white summer dress and has a white flower in her hair. Dante chuckles in glee because now he understands why his brother has fallen so hard: the local florist is a total babe!

Dante is about to get back to his magazine when another text from Nico comes through:

Nico: Yoooooooooo

Nico: U didnt tell me that Vergil was gonna be here!

Dante: Im not my brother’s keeper!

Nico: Im NOT about to get stabbed if he catches me

Nico: Im out

Dante: WAIT

Dante: I’ll sweeten the deal!

Dante: If you get a pic of them together

Nico: DANTE

Dante: Then I’ll let you check out my guns

Dante: FOR A WEEK

A very long pause follows and Dante thinks that Nico is still going chicken out despite his sudden add on to her prize when her response chimes in:

Nico: U better hold up your end of the deal, Dante

Dante: Nicooooo u know I always keep my word!

Nico: Cuz if u dont, I’ll run u over with the van

Dante: No u wont

Nico: VROOM VROOM BITCH

Dante’s amused chuckle echoes throughout the shop. “So, that’s where you’re running off to,” he comments to himself. “The secret garden.” As he waits for Nico’s next photo, he starts to wonder what kind of a woman catches the eye of his broody brother. I mean…sure, you’re a cutie, but Dante knows that Vergil is not so easily swayed by looks alone. Of course, he could be reading into this too much and you’re actually just a really adorable friend…which is why he has to see both of you together. If Vergil has that soft smile on his face and if you show any sign of reciprocating his brother’s feelings…

His phone vibrates and Dante immediately opens the message. How's this for ya? reads Nico’s text along with a bunch of laughing emojis and a video clip. He arches an eyebrow as he presses play. He sees Nero, Kyrie, Vergil, and you all walking together by a bunch of flowers. He cannot make out the soft conversation of the group, but he does hear a lighthearted giggle as you do a twirl. Dante squints his eyes when he notices your hand reach for something in your dress…then his eyes widen as you throw petals into the air. The distinct growl of his brother comes through the audio and Dante nearly chokes on his own laugh. Some of the little pink flowers you threw…are sticking to Vergil’s hair!

I’m totally saving this just for the look on his face!

Dante kicks his feet off of the desk and he leans forward in his chair, never taking his eyes off the screen as Nero and Kyrie step out of frame. He tilts his head when Vergil kneels and you start to pluck the flowers from his hair. Dante has to rub his eyes to make sure he is really seeing these events correctly. Things get really interesting when you move in closer. The awkward expression on his brother’s face is pure gold. But what really has him pressing his nose to the screen is when Vergil stands up and you both just stare at each other. It is like a scene cut straight from a romantic movie. Dante has never seen his brother look so…totally in love. And you are mirroring the exact same expression.

Jackpot!

The video starts to shake and he hears Nico quietly cursing up a storm. The screen is a blur for a moment before it just totally cuts off. Dante is still for a while as he takes in everything that just happened. He honestly did not expect Vergil to be bitten by the love bug. A genuine smile curls on his lips as he thinks that maybe you are exactly what his brother needs to finally let go of the past and start living. But he cannot be the helpful little brother that he is without at least meeting you first. The genuine smile turns mischievous as Dante texts Nico about happened after the video ended and where exactly is this secret garden in the city...

(A Week Later...Reader’s POV)

The late afternoon sun beats down as you wipe the sweat from your brow. You examine the rambling roses you are currently pruning, checking to see if you missed anything before standing up and stretching your legs. Sweet basil, it’s hot, you thought, taking off your gardening hat and fanning your face as you pocket your pruning shears. You think about Vergil and how he always seems to keep cool while wearing a long blue coat in the summer.

The power of Sparda must also include internal air conditioning. You giggle at your own quip as you put the gardening hat back on your head and decide to take a break. As you walk through the multitude of flowers you search for any sign of the Son of Sparda among the flora. He has not called to inform you that he is stopping by today, but that does not necessarily mean he will not show up unannounced…annoyingly startling you before buttering you up with an offering of beautiful blooms.

Vergil has been regularly visiting you in your garden now. Sometimes both of you read and drink tea under the fruit trees, other times you have to work and just let him read in peace while frolicking about your garden. Every now and then he insists on looming close behind you, claiming that he wants to observe how you arrange bouquets and care for the flowers. There are a few times that you somehow rope him into helping since he is so inclined to learn and you must admit…seeing a tall and imposing man handle tiny flowers carefully is so endearing, making you fall even harder for the handsome devil.

You step through the backdoor and walk into your kitchen, heading straight for the fridge and swiftly open the door. When the cold air hits your face you sigh and just stand there for a moment to cool off as you reach for a bottle of water. You close the fridge and head to your office to check the status of a shipment on your computer while you guzzle down half of the bottle. The flowers for Nero and Kyrie’s wedding are well in supply, but you ordered some extra ribbon, wires, needles, and other miscellaneous supplies. It is a little stressful that you only have so much time to pull this off, but that only pushes you to do your utmost best to give them the best flowers they have ever seen. All seems to be order, you mentally note, finishing off your water bottle as you tab out of the website.

Time to get back to work! You go back out to the garden, grab the garden hose, and turn on the outdoor faucet. You adjust the nozzle on the hose to spray into a mist and set off to water some flowers. “Alright, my darlings!” you say cheerfully as you step up to the first section of flowers. “Who’s thirsty?” You happily spray their petals with glistening droplets as you hum softly. One of the many reasons why you enjoy gardening so much is just how tranquil it can be, your mind slipping into a peaceful state as all your worries just drift away and you feel like a flower basking in the warm sunlight.

Although, you do find yourself ceaselessly daydreaming about a certain white-haired gentleman while gardening lately. You cannot get the feel of his slicked back locks out of your thoughts, yearning to do more than just pluck petals from his hair. You wonder if the bergamot scent is from a cologne he is wearing or the constant cups of his favorite tea. And the expression on his face after you picked the stray petals from his hair…cheeks slightly blushing as his gleaming silver eyes stare straight into your soul. The very memory of it has you shivering in delight as you turn around to water the next section of flowers.

“Holy hollyhock!”

The sudden appearance of a man in a long red jacket standing in your garden has you jumping back in surprise. Your foot steps on the garden hose, making you lose your balance and start to tip over. Thankfully, the stranger has quick reflexes and quickly leans forward to catch your fall. “Whoa! Easy there!” he exclaims as he sets you upright, doing his best to avoid the misty spray of the hose still clutched in your hand. That is when you notice his distinct white hair swaying in front of his blue eyes. And his face…if it was not for the slight fuzz of a beard or the care-free expression, he would be the spitting image of Vergil. Which can only mean…

“You must be Dante.”

“What gave it away?” he asks, dramatically holding his hands out to the side as he nods his head in confirmation.

“You wouldn’t be a Son of Sparda if you didn’t scare your local gardener to death!”

Dante tilts head at your answer and smirks as he examines you from head to toe. “I dig the overalls,” he comments as he gestures to your attire. You look down at your green gardening overalls, the phrase "I like big buds and I cannot lie" imprinted on the front surrounded by large colorful flower buds.

“Thanks!” you laugh, turning off the garden hose. “I’m Y/N! I don’t recall Vergil saying that he was going to finally introduce me to you.”

“So, he’s told you about me? Did he mention that I am the better-looking twin?” he jests as he takes a step back and strikes a charmingly rugged pose.

“Uh, he mentioned that you are a demon hunter, a foolish buffoon, and…whoa!” Your eyebrows shoot up as you closely examine his coat. “Your jacket does look really expensive!”

Dante rolls his eyes as he relaxes from his over-the-top stance. “He just can’t let that go, huh?” He shakes his head and lightly chuckles.

“So…what brings you to my garden?” you inquire kindly, not letting his surprise visit distract you from being hospitable. Dante did not mention his brother being present here with him, so you hope that Vergil does not mind you being friendly and helping his brother out if he needs it.

“The girls keep telling me I need something to brighten up the shop,” he explains as he scratches the back of his head. “So, I figured some flowers from my brother’s friendly neighbor florist might do the trick.”

You smile sweetly. “Okay! Do you have any kind of flowers in mind?”

“Well, my mother’s favorite flowers were-”

“Burgundy roses!”

Dante quirks an eyebrow. “Did you just read my mind?”

A giggle escapes your lips as you shake your head. “Vergil told me that his mother had a modest garden herself, and that she grew those roses a lot. Don’t worry,” you affirm as your hand sets down the garden hose. A big confident smile spreads across your face as you twirl in excitement, pausing to strike your own cute pose. “I got you covered!”

He nods his head in approval. “Right on.”

You make small talk with Dante as you lead him to the rose section of your garden, asking if by “the girls” he means the other two demon hunters that work with him. He confirms your guess and grumbles about how unfair it is that you know so much the crew while he knows next to nothing about you. That is quickly remedied though as he bombards you with the oddest series of questions…most of them involving strawberries and pizza. When you tell him that you used to work at the local pizzeria and bakery in your home town he enthusiastically asks if you made the pizzas. You laugh at his boyish glee and inform him that you sometimes helped with the pizzas, but you mostly baked the pastries and desserts.

“Here we are!” You point to a bush full of the dark reddish-purple roses as you step through the various buds and blooms. “Roses of unconscious beauty!” Dante studies the rose bush as you approach it, lean in, and inhale their lovely fragrance. You breathe out in delight and start looking for the best blooms for a bouquet. “Aren’t they lovely?” You look over your shoulder and see that Dante is barely paying attention. His blue green eyes gaze distantly at the rose bush, reminding you a little of Vergil’s silver blue eyes when he recedes into his head. You wait a moment before deciding to coax him out of pensive stupor.

“Flower for your thoughts?”

Dante blinks and shakes his head. “Sorry about that. I was just…remembering something.” He walks over and stands next you, a small grin appears on his face as he peers down at you. “These would look nice on my desk. I’ll take ‘em.”

“Alright!” You reach into your pocket, taking out the pruning shears still stored in there and begin snipping some select roses, carefully removing the thorns before sticking them in another pocket until you can properly tie them together.

Dante quietly watches you for a few moments before he crosses his arms and leisurely leans back. “So…you and my brother.”

You snip a third rose as you glance over at him. “Me and your brother…?” you repeat, hoping he will expand upon the conversation he started. Dante just continues to gaze at you inquisitively. Your brow furrows in puzzlement as you wonder what he is trying to imply…until it suddenly hits you.

No way. He can’t be…

“Are you…Dad-terogating me?”

“Am I what now?”

“You know…that thing fathers do when daughters bring home their boyfriends.” Your voice drops as you do your best impersonation a stern father figure. “What are your intentions little girl?”

“Oh man,” Dante snickers. “And what if I am?” he counters with a puckish smirk.

“Well, Mr. Sparda,” you begin with a cheeky grin, turning to him while you clutch a thornless burgundy rose close to your chest. “I only have the best intentions towards your brother, Vergil. They include smiles, laughter, and a healthy dose of poetry with dash of tea…Oh!” You dip your hand into the front pocket of your overalls. “And lots of flower showers!” Your grin turns cheerful as you toss pink hydrangea petals high into the air.

Dante stares at you closely for a moment, totally unfazed by the petals scattering around him before he chuckles softly. “Well now…how can I argue with that? My party pooper of a brother needs it.”

You giggle and go back to snipping more roses. A fourth one is freed and you begin to remove the thorns from the stem. “It’s sweet of you to look out for him, you know,” you point out with a genuine smile. “You’re a good brother, Dante.”

He smiles back and is about to respond when an awful hellish screech fills the air. Your head snaps over to the direction it is coming from, but you already know what those sounds mean. Dante casually looks over as well, but he does not look as concerned as you. His face reminds you more of the neighborhood kids when the ice cream truck drives by. “Looks like our flower pickin’ is gonna have to wait,” he surmises as he struts briskly towards the commotion.

You pocket the pruning shears and the rose in your hand as you hurriedly follow behind him. The screeching is now really loud and as you step into to a clearing you see the familiar forms of demons just beyond the gates of your garden. Even though you live in a city known for its constant hellish attacks, the sight of their malformed bodies never fails to freeze your blood. The closest one, resembling a large corrupted bat, flies over the gate and hovers near one of your apple trees. It shrieks as its throat starts to glow red. Anger floods through your body when you register what it intends to do to your lovely fruit trees.

“Oh, no you DON’T!” you shout as you run by the gardening tools still laying out, grabbing the garden hoe as you pass by and rush towards the bat-like creature. It swivels around just as you draw your makeshift weapon back and swing up at it with all your strength. The hoe connects and a pained squeal rings out as the demon is knocked back a little bit away from the apple tree. You let out a shuddering breath, quickly realizing that perhaps smacking a demon with a gardening tool was not the best idea.

Multiple gunshots startle you out of your internal dread as they streak up at the bat-like demon. It shakes violently before it drops to the ground and disintegrates. You turn around and see Dante holstering two guns behind his back before giving you a round of applause. “Not bad! Very inventive use of…” his hands pause as he inspects your tool curiously.

“It’s a hoe,” you bluntly inform him.

“Really?” Dante puts his hands on his hips as he circles around you, shielding you from the oncoming demons notice. “Well then…you really know how to handle a hoe!”

You snort and check your tool for any signs of it being broken or bent. “You know what they say…a dirty hoe is a happy hoe!” you joke, flashing him the disgusting bloody residue on the tip. Dante hunches over as a hearty laugh burst from his lips. You feel a sense of accomplishment at making such a clever gardening pun, but it is short lived as a series of terrible growls and roars remind you of the current danger. “Umm,” you mutter softly, “as much as I would like to give more demons a good hoeing…”

Dante reigns in his boisterous laughter and nods. “Yeah...get yourself to safety.” He runs and skillfully jumps over the gate. Before he goes to deal with the demons, he looks over his shoulder at you. “Even though I’m not a hoe I can still get rid of these nasty weeds,” he quips with a wink.

You laugh and shake your head at his own gardening pun before retreating back to your house, sighing in relief as your backdoor comes into view. When you are a few feet away from safety, a low rumbling growl reaches your ears, making you stop in your tracks. You still have your garden hoe, so you hold it up in defense as you scan your surroundings for any immediate threat. It is quiet for a moment…then a series obscure red streaks zoom around you. Your eyes try to track whatever is circling you, but you cannot see what is stalking you like prey.

Your body is quaking now as you turn around to glance behind you. A lizard-like demon with a vicious red blade protruding from one of its scaly arms is leaping through the air straight at you. Your instincts kick in and you raise your gardening tool up in defense, even though you feel certain that it will not enough to block that sharp blade. A series of tumultuous emotions sling around your mind, but one strongly overtakes you as the image of Vergil pops into your head…regret.

I didn’t even get to tell him that-

Before you are able to close your eyes and brace yourself for the deadly impact, a sudden blur of blue spheres pop up and knock back your scaly assailant. A familiar form clad in a blue coat suddenly appears next to the demon and proceeds to hit it with a series of slashes. When he finishes his ruthless onslaught, he turns his back on the demon and dramatically sheaths his sword. Just as the hilt of the sword slams into the case, the demon convulses in pain one last time before collapsing on the ground.

The regret you felt earlier fades away as your devilish rescuer turns towards you. The usual scowl on his face is now even more severe as he scrutinizes your appearance. He may be fuming with rage, but you do not mind, nor do you care. “Vergil!” you cry, trying to thank him for saving your life, but you feel so overwhelmed that no words come out. All you can do is smile gratefully as your eyes well up with tears, so happy that you get to see the man you feel so deeply for again after all.

im gonna hit u with the trinity...jayroy, jayconnor, jaykyle

HHOOOOOOOO boy. lets go

jayroy

who wakes up first in the morning: jason does and he likes the quiet of it when he can hear roy’s breathing and just. recenter. especially if the night before was long or restless

who’s the first to fall asleep at night: jason dozes a lot in the night but is also really easy to wake, when they actually go to bed roy can usually pass out once hishead hits the pillow

what they playfully tease each other over: god EVERYTHING. their families. their clothes. “you used that gun?” “oh im sorry i didnt know the archer was now the pistol police”. etc etc

what they do when the other’s having a bad day: roy is very touchy and while jason isnt so much whenever theyre feeling down they just like to be close to each other. legs linked while they sit on the couch together, hands caressing the backs of each others necks, arms always brushing because theyre standing too close. physical comfort is a major aspect of their relationship after each having struggled with it for so long and learning it can be a good thing together.

how they say ‘i’m sorry’ after arguments: jason is really stubborn but when it comes to these two hes usually the first to apologise. it will be a short apology and he’ll never acknowledge why they fought but roy will always accept his apology once theyve both cooled off

which one’s more ticklish: jason. roy found this out when he gave jason’s knee a horsebite and wound up with a blood nose

their favourite rainy day activities: roy makes jason watch bad tv shows he missed while growing up, cleaning their weapons, just... being alive

how they surprise each other: they don’t really surprise each other much? theyre so intune with each other from working together that they can usually predict or understand what the other is up to. sometimes roy will come home with a classic version of a book jason likes or sometimes jason will wear a shirt of roy’s he called ugly, but nothing major.

their most sickening shows of public affection: [headline reading: RED HOOD AND ARSENAL CAUGHT MAKING OUT ON ROOFTOP IN GOTHAM - EXCLUSIVE PICS]

jayconnor

who wakes up first in the morning: connor is the only person jason knows who wakes before him. he still hasnt figured out how its possible, but it is nice to wake up to coffee thats already been made for him

who’s the first to fall asleep at night: also connor, but his bedtime is like 9pm

what they playfully tease each other over: jason always gives connor shit about his green arrow outfit, connor always gives jason shit about... anything. also bruce and ollie get a lot of shit from the both of them once they really get going.

what they do when the other’s having a bad day: connor knows that jason always needs someone to listen to him, because usually his frustration over the little things actually has a lot to do with something bigger. hes good at digging within a conversation to find what that is. if connor is feeling down, jason knows to take him to the take out place across town that reminds him of his favourite one in star city

how they say ‘i’m sorry’ after arguments: connor is usually the first to cave, but only because he knows he can get jason talking about the argument after

which one’s more ticklish: connor, but only in a very few particular spots

their favourite rainy day activities: they hang out at the local conservatory and connor gets jason to list off all the stupid ways the plants could kill them from what he knows of ivy

how they surprise each other: sometimes jason like to offer connor information about what hes thinking without connor prying too much; connor likes to let jason be the big spoon every so often

their most sickening shows of public affection: some girls once found them at a park in star city while they were going on a not-really-a-date-but-a-date and asked connor for pics, unfortunately jason happened to be plastered to his side and holding his hand in the photos later uploaded to instagram. its how ollie found out that his son was dating the red hood and he had an aneurysm nearly. bruce thought it was awesome.

jaykyle

who wakes up first in the morning: kyle always wakes way too early, so goes back to sleep. jason is always the first to actually get up

who’s the first to fall asleep at night: jason. kyle’s so used to the night sky it’s hard for him to get to sleep most nights

what they playfully tease each other over: kyle found out about jason’s brief interlude with the robin suit with shorts, and also found out that there were photos. he has copies. jason just teases kyle about the fact that he had no real choice in bruce being his dumbass dad - whats kyle’s excuse for his relationship with hal?

what they do when the other’s having a bad day: kyle flies them to the santa monica pier for them to sit there for a few hours. kyle always misses the beach, and jason likes how the scene is so different from gotham

how they say ‘i’m sorry’ after arguments: unless its a really major argument they generally tend to just... take a few, then move on with their days

which one’s more ticklish: jason. he’ll deny it though

their favourite rainy day activities: “wanna go annoy bruce with stories about the lanterns” “if he tries to kill me i’d like to know you’d take my side.” “....sure”

how they surprise each other: “babe i just drank your art water. again. can you stop using the nice mugs for it” “oh dont worry i bought nicer nice mugs instead. won’t happen again” (it does happen again. jason absolutely loses it with him)

their most sickening shows of public affection:

kyle: [constructs a boquet of flowers]jason: put that away thats disgustingkyle: :( okayjason: wait no i wasnt serious i love them. just dont let anyone else see

I hope it boosted serotonin <3<3 Everytime you say hibernation I assume you have a cave like something to hide and go to sleep where you can cut yourself off from the world. I hope your appointment goes well ✨✨ (that's good! take your time off)

Let me think about more rules🤔🤔 okay, so, we can start with basics, you know there's this thing, I hope you've heard about it; bros before hoes, so I'm thinking for clowns it should be something like this but I can't settle on one thing so I'll put here all the options and you can help me out or any of your followers who's reading this and has a better idea can also chime in.

Clowns before towns (we can use hometown and clown before gown but this doesn't makes sense or Clown before Crown. Idk these all rhymes you can also put any other word which makes sense in the sentence)

No. I love you more!!💖✨💕😘

I need to think about this more, it's like a deep question and idk the type of answer you're looking but for but for now I'll answer with this thing my mind went straight to when I read the question; I like looking at the moon, it gives me this whole different kind of feelings yk and I think people should appreciate it more. I have read this quote long long back somewhere and it's still stuck with me, now, I don't remember the exact words but it goes like this; if you ever feel lonely just look up at the moon because someone out there in the world is also staring at the moon at exactly the same time.(That feels a little comforting to me and I wish more people knew that so I'm sharing this here)

(This quote is something different which boosts my thought process more and call me sappy but everytime I look at the moon I get lost thinking if the theory of multiverse is ture than there are plenty of galaxies out there and someone in that galaxy on some random planet might also be staring at the sky and they might be looking at me so that also amazes me a lot.) I would also love to know your take on this question. It's pretty great question where do you even find these??

It's been ages since I watched sunrise (it's been 6 years I think🤔) I can only imagine how beautiful it was. You describing the sunrise reminds of this scene in my fic where Dean and Cas are sitting on the patio early morning and watching sunrise. (Oh! God! This song! I searched your lyrics on Google to find the name and then I was listening to it on Spotify and I was like I've heard this before. Then I went on yt and I found out it was played in the office. Thanks again for the song😍😍)

🎶So she took her love for to gaze a while upon the fields of barley in his arms she fell as her hair came down among the fields of gold🎶

it did<3<3 ahah, assuming the way I dig myself way too deep in my duvet ig it’s safe to say I do live in a cave😂 thankss it did!! (and you too btw. if you’re busy or if you ever dont feel like sending something or you don’t have the energy to do so, that is absolutely okay. just shoot me a quick ask to lmk so I don’t go worrying)

ahahah I loooove this!! let’s go😆

yooo clowns before crowns is epic!!

no me😚💞✨💖💘

woah babe, is it possible I love you more? omg that is so true!! I love that so much🥺 maybe I can go look at the moon rn and you go do it too, then we’ll meet<3 i’ll be sure to lay with you on our rooftop every night and you tell me all about your friend, the moon. yk, this is another soulmate bingo point, I’m obsessed with the stars. I could literally sit there for hourssss just admiring the nightsky and making out constellations. and you love the brightest object in the nightsky. the moon and the stars... how poetic of us. and I agreeee, it is comforting yeahhh❤️✨

(listen, I will call you sappy so affectionately cause we are indeed two halves of a whole sap<3 plus the more sappy and deeply sentimental you get when you talk, the more I find you cute, so keep going😂💞 woooooow wifey, your thoughts themselves are from another galaxy!! I am so in love with you and the way you perceive the world, pls marry me. these really are things that people should appreciate more, and i’m so glad they amaze and fascinate you😚) aha Idk how I came up with them, I guess I am your other sappy half;) if you’ve got more questions like these, shoot. hmm, for me, honestly I would second your answer. sure there are sooo many things that are not really appreciated nor romanticized much, and the moon and stars are some of them. one thing is photos and videos. nowadays everything is being recorded. and what I honestly don’t like is that when I ask my friends to take a pic for example, they always pull out snapchat and put filters and take forever to pose and then deleting it and doing it over and over again (I don’t have it for this reason), all for a simple pic to preserve this memory. I see that capturing raw spontaneous moments is becoming such a rarity, and it’s kinda bad cause for example you get like ten photos and two videos of you and your friends hanging out when you could’ve just gotten one photo to cherish the memory. I think this is a reason why I absolutely love releasing the shutter and hearing the click of instant cameras. cause that picture has been taken and no matter how it turns out, there’s nothing you can do about it. and almost always there is someone in the pic that wasn’t ready, so this way it turns out even more spontaneous. idk, I understand there are so many people who’d fully disagree with me, and I get that.

WOAH SIX YEARS???? babe get ready I’m picking you up for a therapy session with the morning sky. it was really beautiful, not as beautiful as you though;) omg you’re kidding!!! I love😆 see, we really are dean and cas👀 (it was? awesome!!! it’s a really great song ikr😍! anytime my beloved🥰)

🎶if I say a cliche, it's cause I mean it. we can't walk away, we gotta get in between it. and when you wake up we'll grow together, so don't you give up🎶💕

#in my appointment I saw some guy in his office who looked sooo much like finneas and this song has been stuck on my mind ever since aha #also did I mention that I love you?#thee lover anon saga <3

Books, Bites & Babes: Montreal

It was an intense month: right after returning from Reyjavick, I had my friends waiting for me, so we spent some crazy two weeks in NYC, before I got my new and beautiful AWAY suitcase. For a long time I was looking for a perfect size, not too big, not too small, suitcase for all my travels, and before jumping on my next adventure, I finally got it. I went bowling with Lizi, a British friend who was visiting from Singapore and then, with my brand new suitcase, I went straight to Newark. This time was due to a different kind of trip: for the first time I was going to speak publicly in front of a bunch of researchers from around the world while presenting my findings. I was anxious and a little bit nervous, but I was ready. I was not only representing myself but also Sodertorn Hogskola, my school back in Sweden. It was a very big deal, happening in the Sheraton Centre of Montreal at the Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR). I wrote some of my great experiences here in Medium. After a very brief flight which reminded me of the Puente Aéreo happening between Montevideo and Buenos Aires, I finally landed. I took a bus, and got off exactly in front of the hotel. I had some little deja-vu from my previous time here in Montreal about 9 years ago. I went out and followed a very special recommendation my colleague Noe suggested: Le Mal Neccesaire.

Le Mal Neccesaire 1106B St Laurent Blvd, Montreal, QC H2Z 1J5, Canada

With that name, I had to give it a chance. It was a fair walk away from the hotel and the weather wasn’t that terrible so I was ready to embrace it. I made it just on time before they closed the kitchen. Although, with a great creative French name, this place is located in Montreal’s Chinatown, so I had a feast by myself with some tofu, some stir fried veggies with prawns, a delicious pineapple cocktail and some dumplings. Yes, it was a lot of food, but I couldn’t decide, so I had it all! Perfect way to start the conference :)

Eggspectation 1313 Boulevard de Maisonneuve O, Montréal, QC H3G 2R9, Canada

As previously mentioned, this trip was special and different. It was great because of the AoIR event and of my professional exposure, but it was fantastic on a personal level too. Not only I got the chance to meet inspiring colleagues and truly badass fellow researches, but mostly I got the chance to meet my friend Vivi again! And, this time, it was Vivi +1! This is one of my two oldest friends, we’ve met each other for almost 28 years now, AKA our whole lifetime! And now, she is a MOM! It was insane and it felt like no time passed by. We had the chance to catch up on all these years of life stories, travels, adventures and milestones we’ve been living. And now, pregnant and all, my friend takes a train and travels 5 hours solo to see me speaking <3 Vivi, you’re the best. I love you so much, and I’ll see you both again, soon!

So, what happened? My pregnant friend was always starving and feeding her was the only way she was feeling happy and not sick. So, we took the issue very seriously and chugged all the available food in freaking Montreal within three days. We started with a powerful breakfast at Eggspectation, a great finding Vivi brought to the table.

La Habanera 1216 Union Ave, Montreal, QC H3B 3C4, Canada

Bites & KMs respects pregnancies, so, when Vivi and the bun were not around, I took the chance to get a one-on-one session with Esther Hammelburg, an awesome, kick-ass Dutch researcher I met at AoIR. We went for refreshing mojitos and shots at the Cuban restaurant called La Habanera to spice things up. Who says researchers and professors can’t have fun?

Juliette et Chocolat 1626 Saint-Catherine St W, Montreal, QC H3H 1L7, Canada

Well... this was an out-of-this-world recommendation. Researchers really know how to eat and drink! Apparently, in the state of Quebec, there’s this traditional and unique place with multiple locations around the state called Juliette and Chocolate. O-M-G. This is chocolate paradise, sweet lover’s heaven, and temptation cave by excellence. Absolutely everything in the menu is delicious. They started as a bakery and coffee shop but today’s is a renown restaurant and shop that even incorporated savory crepes on its menu.

We took the diet really seriously, and between the pregnancy cravings and the conference nerves, we went full on on sweet indulgence therapy. Shall we repeat it?

Second Cup (AKA cup and a half) Various locations http://www.secondcup.com/

Of course, bad habits die hard and until the very last minute I was editing my presentation, practicing again and again to make it in 20 minutes or less. It was a lot of pressure, almost like a Pecha-Kucha or TEDx talk! Of course I went as fast as a rocket ship but undoubtedly my presentation was one of the most interactive and fun ones from the panel (at least, this is what my objective and beautiful friend Vivi says :D). Next time I need to relax a little bit more since we were more than ok with the time. I’m just happy to had have a not-so-impartial friend/slash/jury on the audience that could not only record my audio to hear me afterwards but also to take some pictures of the “voilá” moment. The fun part is that if you look at the photos one after the other, with a fast pace, you can almost make a gif and laugh on how much I look more of a rapper than a researcher since I was walking and engaging with the audience, but whatever, I loved it as much as those pictures reflect it!

Melk - Bar a Cafe 1206 rue Stanley http://melkbaracafe.com/

Just right by the hotel, there was this small but cute café with the most amazing scones and cappuccinos. It was called Melk and it was the perfect way to toast to my friend and her baby (baby who I’m sure is a daughter). Viviohna! this is for you!<3

With all this exposure to amazing content and research, I was writing like crazy and thinking about upcoming study subjects and matters. With the cold wind hitting my face, I had this great epiphany that can easily be applied not only to harsh study but also to food, blogging, travel and - why, not?- life itself! I was worried the audience may ask me something I didnt know about, although I was super mega prepared, knew and memorized the study front and backwards, and conducted the research myself, I was still nervous. Until it hit me: “I don’t know”. That should be my shameless answer. There’s a special dignity in not knowing. It’s always so rich and inspiring to acknowledge that. It’s, by definition, the beginning of something knew. More and newer research questions, more hypothesis, more variables, more facts that draw more questions. It’s the start of something great. If you don’t know what you are eating, ask. If you dont understand the language, try to taste it or draw it, or explain it with body language. Then you’ll laugh, you’ll discover something new, and again, replicate this experience with all the unknown questions you may have while becoming a mom, arriving to a new place or a research question for your next thesis. I didnt know what to expect from this trip, and it was a great surprise. Some other great surprises that nourished my stayed in Montreal were: Restaurant Santa Lucia (https://santalucia.restaurant/), Fat Guys (http://www.fiveguys.com/) and Tres amigos (http://www.3amigosrestaurant.com/) but I would suggest that, if you go to Montreal, you should start asking around for recommendations and you’ll find even greater spots I didnt have enough time to discover! Not knowing where to go can be an amazing journey start and everything will begin with saying, aloud and proudly: “I dont know!”

RWBY FINALE REACTION

i’ve been so anxious for the past 47 minutes i thought i was past this

i actually made it through the entire opening without it stopping to buffer even once so this might bode well for being able to watch the episode without constantly being forced to pause

HEY TOM GET YOUR GRIMY HANDS AWAY FROM QROW LEAVE HIM A L O N E

someone made an interesting point about nucklavees being from norse mythology, kinda interesting that the major attacks we’ve seen have involved nora (thor) and qrow (huginn or muginn) as its victims.

i don’t... actually get what qrow grabbing jaune was about there? i just saw a lot of eyerolling and glaring. can you two chill.

JAUNE AND BLAKE BOTH WITH THEIR FUCKING ‘YEAH MY SHEATH IS A SWORD’ BULLSHIT Y’ALL KNOW THAT DEFEATS THE INTENDED USE OF A SHEATH RIGHT

i mean i know i agreed with crystal that the rider’s name is tom and the mount’s name is tim but actually like. i mean. look at this fight. his name is absolutely Fuckarms McMike.

jESUS DONT SCARE ME LIKE THAT THERE WAS A LEGITIMATE HALF A SECOND I THOUGHT NORA GOT HURT

omfg “STOP LOOKING” and ren’s sudden “WAIT NO I WASN’T LOOKING UP YOUR SKIRT I SWEAR”

JFHSGHS NO YOU LEAVE HER AURA THE FUCK ALONE. SHE’S NOT ALLOWED TO GET HURT. I’LL KILL YOU I’LL KILL YOUR MOM I’LL KILL YOUR WHOLE FAMILY.

nice to see ren as panicked and determined as i am

fuck ren your determination to save your girlfriend got you fresh out of aura what a backfire (NO BUT IM CRYIN HE WAS JUST SO DETERMINED TO NOT LET THIS THING TAKE THE LAST FAMILY HE HAD LEFT AFTER IT KILLED THE REST)

OMG THE SAME HOUSE SHE TACKLED HIM UNDER THE SAME HOUSE THEY HID UNDER AS KIDS

tbh yes slap some sense into him babe

skjgbskjghjsgh the fucking. him seeing her as she was all those years ago, and then blinking to see her now IM HONESTLY GONNA DIE.

I’m really happy to see Ruby calling out the strategy. I liked that they decided to emphasize Jaune’s role as a strategist by having the others regard him as one, but I do miss Ruby calling the shots, because she’s very good at it.

Nora is genuinely the cutest thing I’ve ever seen her smug grin as she just FALLS OFF A RIDICULOUSLY HIGH ROOF WITH NO AURA.

“For myself.” !!!! I !!! AM !!! GOING !!! TO !!! DIE !!! I !!! LOVE !!! REN !!! MY !!! SON !!! AND I’M SO PROUD OF HIS DEVELOPMENT !!!

Qrow I’m gonna have to ask you to stop talking because if you’re conscious enough to talk you’re conscious enough to have some last words and I’M NOT GIVING YOU PERMISSION TO DIE

She’s so proud I’m crying.

WAIT A SECOND TIM AND TOM BEEN OUT DESTROYING EVERYTHING EVERY CITY EVERYWHERE FOR LIKE AT LEAST A DECADE, EVEN RICH PEOPLE CITIES, AND NO ONE HAS KILLED IT IN ALL THAT TIME, ALL THE FULL CITIES COMBATING IT, BUT FOUR KIDS JUST FUCKED IT UP? I’m sorry but where is their trillion dollar reward. Where is it. This Nucklavee has the blood of probably hundreds if not thousands on its hands at this point, no one could stop it, and these four just saved countless more cities. Pay them.

Okay guys this is a real happy moment and I have some hope that my husband might survive but let’s just consider what’s going on here:

Hopeful moment.

Episode’s only half over.

They have reached Haven.

Episode title is “No Safe Haven”

Fuck

How wrong are things going to go?

RENORA GOT A PRIVATE AIRSHIP ALL TO THEMSELVES AND SQUISHY MUSIC OH GOD

MY BABIES ARE CUDDLING I’M HONESTLY SCREAMING

last time one of my otps held hands and cuddled it was a precursor to one kissing the other and dying so like. this is a little weirdly reminiscent.

UGH THIS RUBY AND QROW MOMENT IS HONESTLY GOING TO KILL ME MORE THAN ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING ELSE. YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND. OH MY GOD, I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH AND THE WAY SHE’S LOOKING AFTER HIM LIKE HE ALWAYS LOOKED AFTER HER LIKE SUMMER PROBABLY ALWAYS LOOKED AFTER HIM. I’M GOING TO DIE. I’M GOING TO DIE.

I know that when I’m with you I’m at home.

Omg is Weiss stowing away. My video stopped loading at “but if we get cau---”.

Honestly? I’m so happy that she’s choosing to seek out Winter. Just... the notion of these two girls getting out of an abusive situation and finding each other outside of it and learning how to heal and have a healthy family relationship together is so important to me.

!!!! WHICH VERSION OF THE PHOTO DO YOU GUYS THINK YANG HAS---HER DAD’S, OR SUMMER’S? IS TAIYANG LOOKING AT HIS OWN OLD COPY OR AT SUMMER’S OLD COPY?

Honestly? Jaune’s tiny smile when he looks up at Ren and Nora is everything to me.

BLAKE’S LITTLE SMILE AT SUN I’M GENUINELY GONNA CRY. Also, the way she pulls out the old flag, lowers it, and he’s behind it. Like, he’s what the old Fang was always supposed to be. Good, and kind, despite not putting up with any shit and always, always pushing for what was right and what he believed in.

NONBINARY FIRST MATE IS BACK I LOVE THEM

God, Cinder, you’ve got issues.

The people we haven’t lost yet. c’:

LIKE UNCLE QROW, MY HUSBAND, STILL KICKIN’.

“Hey... aren’t I normally the one saving you?” PRECIOUS

WHY DID THEY PUT ‘BANDITS’ ON A FUCKING SIGN. LIKE, “HEY, ANY HUNTSMEN OR LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THE AREA WHO MAYBE HAVE A BOUNTY ON SOME SHITTY BANDITS, DO YOU NEED TO KNOW WHERE TO FIND US? HERE’S OUR ADDRESS. FIGHT ME.”

Yang was definitely facing Mistral and didn’t seem to turn, so that’s probably where she’s going, which is good, but I don’t think seeing her mom would have delayed her that much.

“I really think things are going to start going our way” YOU SINGLEHANDEDLY JINXED EVERYTHING GOOD JOB

I haven’t yet seen the after credits scene but, all in all, this was a surprisingly good finale for a season I’ve had plenty of issues with.

Listen not to detract from lil homie talking to Qrow but like. Where is the bartender in this place?

PIPSQUEAK, MY HUSBAND IS SUCH A LITTLE SHIT

omg he smiled so immediately. I’m gonna assume Ozpin must have given him the lowdown on everything, then?

“It’s good to see you again, Oz.” I hope it’s a legitimate plot point for Oscar that he doesn’t want to just be treated like Ozpin. Just bc the dude’s in his head and they’re literally fused as in share-the-same-soul fused, he’s still an individual, still a kid, and he’s got a right to go about this on his own terms.

Anyways actually I’m pretty excited for his arc?
