This week was super busy with a holiday and preparation for my youngests birthday this weekend so didn't really have time for any writing but I threw this together, obviously inspired by them.
Favorite Flower
Emma: Whoo, finally everything is done!
Emma let out a long exhale as she flopped down exhausted into one of the kitchen chairs.
Emma: Thanks for all your help Yves I never would of gotten everything done without you, and everything looks so amazing I can barely wait for tomorrow.
Yves: You're very welcome Emma, did you triple check on everything else? If there's anything left to do we won't really have the time tomorrow.
Emma: Ya Jin and Leon got almost all the decorations up tonight and all the presents are still safely hidden in Lichts room. Prince Chevalier has at least agreed to show up and Rio and Sariel have been busy making sure everyone has the afternoon free. I feel sorry for sticking Luke on Clavis duty the last few days though.
Yves: No need to worry Emma I made a huge plate of honey beignets just for him as a special thank you.
Emma: I hadn't even thought of doing something like that you're really amazing Yves thanks again.
As Emma smiled at Yves the bells rang out.
Emma: Is it really 1 in the morning already!? When did it get so late!?
Yves: You better get to bed Emma you can't look your best for tomorrow if you don't get enough sleep, I'll finish cleaning up in here.
Emma: Are you sure Yves?
Yves: Of course I am now go on, I'll see you tomorrow afternoon.
Emma got up and headed off to bed while Yves sighed looking at the mountain of dishes still left to conquer.
The next afternoon was clear and sunny. Emma and Nokto strolled through the gardens each holding onto a tiny little hand. The little princess with silver hair and big brown eyes wore a peach dress with little blue flowers on it and a big smile. When the three of them got closer to the sitting area the little princess stopped then let out a squeal letting go of her parents hands and taking off running as fast as her little legs would let her.
Yves: Don't run so fast, you could fall and get hurt!
Licht: I got her.
Licht slowly walked towards his niece scooping her up in his arms and carrying her the rest of the way. The area was decorated in bright flowers and ribbons with a big sign that said Happy 2nd Birthday on it. The tables were piled high with sandwiches, sweets and presents. Her uncles started fawning over her as soon as Licht put her down.
Jin: Hey kiddo Happy Birthday!
Luke: Ya Happy Birthday!
Birthday wishes came from every Uncle and when they were all recieved the little princess gave a curtsey and smiled up at her uncles.
Princess: Tank Ewe Unles! I like sprises and yummy food!
Clavis stepped forward and bent down to be level with the little princess
Clavis: Well how about we start with all this boring food Uncle Yves made first my darling little accomplice.I would of made you some wonderful treats but your Uncle Luke was keeping me quite busy lately.
Yves: My food is not boring! It's absolutely perfectly crafted and tastes divine unlike those monstrosities you come up with.
Clavis: They are not monstrosities they're full of creativity and the little princess likes my creations don't you?
Sariel: The pallet of a two year old is hardly an endorsement. I'm also sure her highnesses tastes will improve over time.
Leon: Come on guys no fighting today let's just enjoy it ok. Look she's already started without you.
At Leon's words the arguing was over and everyone gathered around the birthday girl eating and laughing together. When it was time for presents the little princess sat on the sofa and carefully opened each one. There was a beautiful brush and comb set from Yves, a hand sewn fox from Luke, dolls from Leon and Jin, books from Chevalier and Sariel, a dress from Rio and a beautiful jewelry box from Licht. Just as she finished setting the jewelry box aside Clavis swept in behind her and handed her a huge box tied with ribbon. The little princess's eyes widened and she clapped her hands excitedly.
Rio: Prince Clavis what is that?
Nokto: That box looks too big for the present you ran past me the other day.
Clavis: Nonsense it's exactly what I showed you, plus a little extra flair.
Emma: Clavis what did you....
Emma's words were cut off with a loud pop! There was flower petals and leaves of all shapes and sizes everywhere, the little princess was laughing with delight.
Princess: Look Unle Lavis! Unle Valier is like a pwetty flower!
Everyone turned to face Chevalier who was sitting in a chair to the princess's side reading a book. Apparently his close proximity and the direction of the breeze meant that a larger number of leaves and flowers landed on top of him.
Chevalier: Ridiculous.
As everyone else was either laughing or trying desperately to hold it in the princess stood on the sofa leaning over to give her uncle a kiss on his cheek.
Princess: Unle Valier flower my favorite flower.
Chevalier stood to face his niece and patted her gently on the head while staring over her and giving Clavis a death glare.

Makeup for Magick/Ritual p3: Beltane
We made it to Beltane, you guys! We did it! Is this actually going to go up in time without my computer freaking out? Only time will tell. And no, I didn't get a better phone.
.
.
.
I stole my sisters. ANYWAY!!!
It's the last of the three fertility sabbats (along with Imbolc and Ostara). And that's fertility in all its forms, by the way, not just the baby-making kind. You need fertile soil to for just about any kind of plant to grow, after all. The main colors that I, personally, associate with Beltane are bright/summery reds, lush greens, and… white. All colors of fertility, growth, passion, shmex… as you do. However! The entire rainbow spectrum is fair game. Think of all the colorful flowers, plants, and trees and stuff. For instance, just looking out my widow from where I'm typing this, you got the green of the new leaves on the tree, the reddish-orange color of the little helicopter seed fellas hanging from it, and little yellow, almost white, flowers on the bush in the neighbor's yard.
Tumblr media
Any of the more nude palettes from Ostara are still in play. And DAMMIT! The picture's cut off at the edges. Because of course it is, why wouldn't it be? *groan* Whatever, let's get into Colourpop.
Tumblr media
Top: Strawberry Shake, Main Squeeze, Orange You Glad?, Uh Huh Honey
Middle: Just My Luck, Blue Moon, It's My Pleasure, Oh La La
Bottom: Yes, Please!
If the red/green thing is what you wanna go for, grab the Just My Luck palette and either Strawberry Shake or Main Squeeze and you're good. And of course, as the rainbow spectrum goes, there it is. Hell, if you have the Fade into Hue palette, just grab that. I don't have it because, though the eyeshadow formula is decent for the price, there are pressed glitters in the palette. And unlike the BH eyeshadow formula, I don't think the CP formula is good enough to make up for the handful of arts-and-crafts-herpes shades you have to deal with in this palette.
Yes, Please! is here because Beltane is also a fire festival and this a cute and cheap fiery palette.
On to Give Me Glow!
Tumblr media
Top: Summer Vibes, Extra Spicy
Bottom: Vintage Rose,Vivid Rose
Where there is the CP Yes, Please! Palette, there is the Give Me Glow Extra Spicy palette. Unfortunately, she's no longer available, but it's a great pick for this fire festival if you have it.
Kindly excuse the busted pans in my Summer Vibes palette, but a good chunk of these shades could work for Beltane. You can take it fiery or flowery, depending on what you're going for.
And if you want to look like a stereotypical flower fairy (and I mean that in the best possible way), the sister Rose palettes are the palettes to grab.
Tumblr media
Now let's get the single-palettes out of the way.
Tarte's Tartelette Toasted palette is another one of those fire festival palettes, except more of a warm toned nude version of one as opposed to the bright fiery colors of Yes, Please! and Extra Spicy.
The Too Faced Life's a Festival palette is just full of great brights and those fun duochromes. Definitely the time to pull it out if you have it.
And then there's the ABH Modern Renaissance palette. This palette will give you serious vintage flower fairy vibes, and was the first time I got said vibe while using a palette. Okay,technically that was when I used the Makeup Revolution dupe palette, but that formula was utter trash.
And as for the ABH sub-brand, Norvina…
Tumblr media
We got two. The Pro Pigment Palette Vol. 3, and the Pro Pigment Mini Palette Vol. 3.
The Mini's cherry reds, green and pinks and beautiful, and that white has a cherry red duochrome to it. Ignore the pressed glitter in the middle of the top row, the shades are pretty enough not to.
The larger Vol. 3 has some nice bright greens, reds, etc. that makes it great for the lushness of Beltane, even though it's meant to be a fall palette. Which it's also great for, but we'll get to that in a future post.
Now for BH Cosmetics!
Tumblr media
Top: Trendy in Tokyo, Chillin' in Chicago
Bottom: Mimosa
Trendy in Tokyo is the typical rainbow palette, except the shimmers are more satin than metallic, so not my favorite of their Travel palettes.
Chillin' in Chicago would make a pretty good fire festival palette, and lays in between Tartelette Toasted and Extra Spicy/Yes, Please!. It's not as nude as Toasted but not as bright as the two others.
Mimosa's pinks with orange and yellow pops could give you a bright, flowery look.
And now the last of the palettes, Juvia's Place!
Tumblr media
Left Column (Top to Bottom): The Masquerade Mini, The Magic Mini
Middle Column (Top to Bottom): The Zulu, The Festival,The Sweet Pinks
Right Column (Top to Bottom): The Warrior III, The Chocolates, The Violets
The Masquerade Mini's top two colorful rows are what you're reaching for if you want to do a fully colorful Beltane look, but can be paired with the bottom nudes if all you want (or can do because work or whatever) is a little pop of color. For The Magic Mini, you're looking at the top two rows, which are the warmer rows, and the purple duochrome (Faso) and the green (Buzo) in the bottom, cooler toned rows.
Both The Zulu and The Warrior III are beautiful colorful palettes. In Warrior III, I'd stick with the top six mattes. That green and red are beautiful, and that pink is almost neon in real life. The entire Zulu palette is good for brighter plant/flower looks. And that pink/gold duochrome in the bottom left corner? So beautiful.
In The Festival palette, I'd say all the shades except the metallic black, the deeper metallic teal, and the matte mustard gold. The red, pink and oranges are so beautiful and rich, guys! And that metallic white and gold? *chef kiss* But, guess what palette is getting pulled out for Samhain. X3!
The Chocolates, Violets and Sweet Pinks are basically companion palettes. The Chocolates have some "rich, fertile soil" vibes if you want to bring that into the look, while The Violets are fairly floral and The Sweet Pinks are more bright pops with a more floral matte and shimmer shade (top right, bottom left). The two pinky floral shades could actually be cute with the Violets, now that I think about it.
And finally, the singles! A few days ago, my first Terra Moons singles order arrived, but since I haven't really got to play with them much they won't be included in this one. Though they, as well as my first order of singles from Looxi beauty, will probably start showing up in my next post. Okay, Shroud singles first!
Tumblr media
Top: Enigma, Azura, Vigor, Ignite, Vigil
Bottom: Oracle, Pillow Talk, Scrumptious, Magnetism, Soulstone
Pillow Talk, Scrumptious and Magnetism aren't pressed glitters, but definitely act and remove like they are. So, if you pick these up when Shroud reopens, keep that in mind.
Enigma (purple with a blue shift)
Azura (teal blue with a green shift)
Vigor (bright lemon-lime soda green)
Ignite (fiery copper)
Vigil (yellow-gold)
Oracle (champagne gold)
Pillow Talk (deep purple with a gold shift)
Scrumptious (coral red with a gold shift)
Magnetism (aqua green with a gold shift)
Soulstone (magenta)
And finishing off, Give Me Glow singles!
Tumblr media
Column 1
My Sunshine (pale sunny yellow metallic)
Lucky Charm (light yellow metallic)
Lemon Lime (electric green with shifts of banana yellow)
Limeade (lime green)
Column 2
Peach Glaze (pale icy peach)
You're Cheesy (Mac n Cheese orange)
Havana (deep coral metallic)
Low Battery (neutral-toned, medium-dark red)
Column 3
Pink Frosting (icy bubble gum pink)
Heartbreaker (electric hot pink)
West Coast (deep vivid coral)
Floral Coral (peachy-pink coral)
Column 4
Strawberry Lollipop (reddish pink)
Pink Lemonade (pink base with electric gold a baby blue shifts)
Icicle (icy white)
Marshmallow (pure white)
Column 5
Pretty Little Lilac (icy lavender)
Electric Purple (neon pastel purple)
Bubbles (true icy blue)
Sky High (bright sky blue)
Column 6
Toxic (deep neon purple)
Purple Hills (a pure deep electric purple)
Under the Sea (deep sea blue)
Starboy (deep cobalt blue)
And we've reached the end of the Beltane post! Fun fact, the Beltane crossquarter day is on May 4th so, still relevant right? Yes? No? Maybe so? The fact that I was able to get this done by Beltane is a miracle in and of itself. Use these as color story inspiration for your own looks, maybe repost with palettes/singles you've found in your own stash, and I'll see you in the next one!

As The World Caves In, Part II
Genre: fluff, mild angst
A/N: pls listen to the song posted above! I love incorporating songs and their lyrics into my writing. I think it really sets the tone of a story for me, whether I'm writing or reading one ☆.。.:*
Part 1
Part 3
After your first encounter with Shigaraki, he watched you for weeks, just in case you were dumb enough to go to the police. He snuck through your window and hid in the dark corners of your apartment, watching you every day, memorizing your routine, if you could call it that. You went to university and stayed home during your free time, only leaving your apartment in the middle of the night for junk food and alcohol. You worked at home and spent hours watching dramas and writing.
Today was no different. After a draining day at school, you came home and kicked off your doc martens, heading straight to your fridge. You stared at the contents for a long time before deciding on a bottle of peach iced tea. He watched in anticipation as you grabbed your laptop from the table and threw yourself on the rug in front of your couch. For some reason, he liked seeing your writing process. You'd listen to a few love songs, read a few books or watch a movie for inspiration. On days you felt depressed, you'd stay in bed all day and listen to sad alternative. Sometimes you wouldn't even write and would just fall asleep to those songs. Shigaraki took advantage of those times to lie next to you, stealing an earphone and studying your sleeping face.
After what seemed like hours staring at a blank screen, he watched intently as you started typing
"I could write about one million things–
I could describe the color of the sky
in the middle of a rainstorm;
I could put the feeling of running my fingers
down the spine of a brand new book into words;
I could talk about how it looks as though
the cerulean sky
kisses the ground tenderly at the horizon;
I could write about one million things,
but I just want
to write about
you."
He didn't know what the feeling was that clawed desperately at his chest. It felt foreign and unlike anything he's ever experienced, and he didn't know how to stop it from surfacing, slowly but surely. You sighed and rolled over on your back, staring thoughtfully at the worn ceiling.
"I don't even know this jerk but he cured my writer's block? He even makes me want to write sonnets about him and those damn red eyes. Am I going crazy?"
His breath hitched at the sudden realization. Was that poem about him? The weird feeling resurfaced. As much as he tried, he couldn't help grinning. A month had passed since that fateful night and you were still thinking about him. How could he not get cocky?
"Why aren't you responding?" A tiny bell rang in the distance when a fat cat popped out from the bedroom and plopped itself onto your stomach, causing you to groan at the weight.
"Artemis, please have mercy on me. You're not a kitten anymore and 20 pounds is a lot to handle." You whined at the purring grey cat. He never knew a person could talk this much to an animal that couldn't even speak, but it was amusing to see you spill your little secrets to the creature, completely unaware of Shigaraki's presence.
That night it started to rain, and you laid in bed cuddled up with your cat. You watched as the raindrops tapped on your window, a soft sound that could put anyone to sleep. You closed your eyes, only to imagine two crimson red eyes staring into yours. He invaded your thoughts even now.
"I want to see him." You whispered to yourself before feeling your eyelids grow heavy.
He hovered over your sleeping form, watching your chest rise and fall in peaceful ignorance. He'd never seen anyone sleep so soundly before. It didn't last long as you started frowning in your sleep. He wondered what your dreams and nightmares were like, which ones you had more frequently and whether or not you remembered them. He couldn't remember the last time he dreamt of anything, but his nightmares sat unwelcoming in the back of his mind, so much so that he didn't have to sleep to experience them.
You stirred in your sleep and he was brought back from his thoughts. Everything about you distracted him from his own reality. You had that effect even while you slept. You looked peaceful once more and he smirked at the light snores that came from your open mouth.
"Cute." He whispered as he poked your cheek. Your eyes fluttered open and shigaraki lied there, frozen in place. He didn't plan on getting caught, but he was quite literally on top of you, and there was no explanation that could save him at this point. Killing you was out of the question now, not when he got so comfortable with your constant presence. Truthfully, he'd rather jump out your window like a coward than to ever hurt you again.
"Am I still dreaming?" You smiled, half asleep and staring at the man above you through half lidded eyes. He didn't say anything. He couldn't, not with the way you stared at him as if his existence wasn't a nightmare, but a dream you wanted. He couldn't hide the blush that crept over his dumbfounded expression.
"He can blush." You giggled and touched his face with both hands. Having never been touched so intimately, he couldn't help but flinch. " 'S okay." You hummed, softly grazing his cracked lips with your thumb.
He subconsciously leaned into your touch. He couldn't understand it; something he wasn't used to felt so right, almost natural, that even his body would move against his will. He stared at the smile on your lips. The first genuine smile he's seen that was for him. A smile that held no malice or ulterior motive. Was it wrong for him to want to bask in this moment just a little longer, before you realized the truth? That the Shigaraki in your dreams was not the Shigaraki in front of you. The man in front of you was far from prince charming. There was no good in him. His heart and his mind were damaged goods, he knew that all too well.
"Why are you dreaming about me?" He smirked, careful to hide the self deprecating tone in his voice. The look on your face told him you seen right through him.
"Because you're beautiful." You said matter of factly, as if it was the obvious answer. "It seems like the only good dreams I can remember are about you." You laced your fingers in his hair and sighed. "I like this dream the best."
"What's so special about this dream?" He leaned closer, his steady breaths fanning over your face.
"You feel real. Every dream you seem so far away. This is the closest I've ever gotten to touching you." You lightly tug his hair bringing him closer, lips barely an inch apart. He watched your sleepy eyes study his face, taking in every scar and imperfection. For once he felt insecure. You felt him pulling away but you held his head firmly.
"You're so pretty." You massaged your fingers in his hair.
"I want to kiss you." He blurted out, breath hitching as your hands moved to cradle his neck.
"Then kiss me." That was all it took for him to be on you like a moth to a flame. His lips were rough, but his kiss was anything but. Your hands found their way back in his hair, gentle tugs and caresses, trying your best to find ways to pull him closer as if it was possible. His right hand moved from the mattress to your cheek, pinky up as he rubbed circles with his thumb. Your soft skin felt like heaven to the touch. From your cheek to the quick pulse against your neck; he wanted to feel all of you. This was a dream, both for you and Shigaraki.
"I want to know you...outside of my thoughts and dreams." You sighed in between kisses.
"You don't want that."
"I haven't wanted something so badly in my life." You retorted, breaking away from the heated kiss to stare into his eyes. They held so much of his story, you'd read them like your favorite book if you could.
"I don't know what kind of life you lived until now, but I understand. Whatever happened wasn't your fault; I know that much, at least." Your fingers caressed the marks under his eyes, finding their way back down to his puffy lips.
He was quiet, but his intense gaze was filled with so much want and curiosity, you could hear your heart hammering against your chest from the sight in front of you. You were still so sleepy, so it all felt like a fever dream.
He lied next to you and you wrapped your arm around his waist, pulling yourself into his broad chest. He smelled like a love spell; rosemary, lavender and thyme. You struggled to keep your eyes open.
"Sleep." He whispered in your ear, tucking back a loose strand of your hair.
You shook your head. "I don't want you to disappear yet."
"Y/N." Your name on his lips sounded like a prophecy, as if your fates were entwined and sealed.
"Tomura." His crimson eyes were gentle as they watched you succumb to sleep.
As he watched you sleep in his arms, he was lost in thought. If he was being honest with himself, he knew there couldn't be a future for you two. Being involved with him meant danger from both sides. Heroes and villains alike would target you if they knew you to be his weakness. He knew falling deeper into this, whatever it was, meant risking everything. Nevertheless, there was that part of him that wanted to be the prince charming, that wanted to find the better part of himself stashed away somewhere in his heart. Of course, he'd never abandon his path in ridding the world of heroes, but that didn't mean he wouldn't try to be better, softer and gentler just for you. Only you.
