This will probably have been in the drafts for a while by the time it’s posted because there’s a lot and I get tired SDKFJSFDKS but without further ado: the WIP rundown no one asked for.

Organised at the very least by subject matter, because while I may be out of control, I’m not a heathen.

WARNING: these won’t be spoiler-free.

Also, I’m noting this here because otherwise I’ll one hundred percent keep restating it with half the items on the list: I like angst I like to have fun :)

This is about to be so long. I apologise in advance if you’re of a mind to read the whole thing, and I thank you if you manage it.

Akash: Path of the Five

Ignatius/Aurora body painting – Ignatius asks Aurora if he can practice the art of body painting on her! Body-painting ensues, and also kissing. Aurora flirts with her man, her man loses his composure several times. Post-game, maybe post-wedding but I haven't decided that yet.

Andromeda Six

“I loved you, Vexx.” – f!Traveller/Vexx. You know that one scene in the storage room where the Traveller is supposed to interrogate Vexx but then you have the option of making things a bit emotional? Yeah.

Post-episode 5 – Because for some reason I wanted to sit in the feeling of terror and panic after Vexx gets shot. There will be content warning tags for medical procedures. I’m undecided on whether it’ll be Vexx route or Damon route, but either way Reba has a lot of love in her heart for Vexx and she is very worried for him.

Wereshark Vexx – More of a general AU idea than an actual work-in-progress at this stage, but it’s horny. Safety-for-work to be determined. Also, it has “wild stallion tamed by a teenage girl” energies, but instead of an untamed herbivore it has Vexx with some kind of metamorphosing virus, and instead of an adolescent schoolkid it has 20-something Princess Reba.

Blooming Panic

“Make me.” – xyx and lovelylola experience everyone’s favourite ‘challenge your significant other in a loving but definitely not god-honouring way’ trope, with LL as the perpetrator. A series of little moments, all inspired by the appearance of that line in the actual game.

Changeling

Ewan/Nora Build-A-Bear – Ewan and Nora go to the aforementioned store. Nora is an agent of chaos and somehow manages to create the perfect Ewan Bear despite the fact that there is no such real-life thing as Headless Teddy (trust me, I scoured the website. But you bet I'm making it work). I’m having maybe too much fun using the Build-A-Bear creation process as a narrative device.

Dragon Age

A Weakened Mind – Fenris/f!Hawke. DA2 Fenris + a combination of canonical spells that have an effect which is similar to the Feeblemind spell from D&D 5e = pain.

Gang AU – f!Cousland/Zevran. It's an Origins gang AU. She has bits of a fic but no plot, your honour.

Post-Enemies Among Us – Hawke being like “Ah. Mind control. These are the continued consequences of me not minding my own business. We love purposely not sleeping in case we were going to have nightmares.”

Twinblades – f!Cousland/Zevran. You know how in Awakening the flavour text for these default daggers equipped to a rogue Warden is like “these belonged to some guy from Nevarra for like a day but then they were nicked”? Here’s a concept: Zevran took them for his babygirl (gender neutral). Unclear how integral the daggers are to the plot as a whole, but they are very important to the beginning of the fic.

Fire Emblem

“Who is that?” – Gaius/f!Robin. An expansion on Robin and Gaius meeting in the Shepherds’ base camp, because in game it’s (I think?) Chrom who has to speak to him to recruit him, and I was like “But how does the tactician who now has to fit another moving part into the battle plan feel about this? And how does Gaius feel about the strange-looking but also very pretty tactician?”

Jeralt is Dead – Pain! Grief! Academy phase Byleth struggling to process her father’s death, the Blue Lions not knowing how to help her process it!

Kill Miklan again – Sylvain/f!Byleth. Post-game, some mage somewhere finds TOWSITD’s necromancy handbook and goes “You know what we should do with this? Bring back the Ashen Demon’s husband’s piece of garbage brother. Great plan, team! We won’t be hunted down and made to pay for our crimes at all!”

Lorenz/Marianne first date jitters – Post-game. Lorenz Hellman Gloucester puts his big boy boots on and woos Marianne von Edmund, like the newly-realised Actually A Genuinely Nice Man that emotional maturity has helped him become. We all clap for him.

Student Byleth AU – More of a collection of ficlets than one whole piece, but all of them feature Byleth as a student at the Academy rather than one of the teachers.

Sylvain/f!Byleth Hanahaki AU – The general storyline probably speaks for itself, but I ask the additional question: what if mutual pining meant double the sickness?

Sylvain/f!Byleth modern jousting performer AU – Sylvain Jose ‘I embody the Showy Horseman knightly archetype’ Gautier works for an entertainment company which I’ve described in my notes as being Medieval Times mixed with WWE. He flirts with Byleth ‘I’m a world-famous pop star but I also like swords so I have a season pass to the fake joust show’ Eisner a lot. Also, Jeralt says ‘canoodling’.

Sylvain/f!Byleth smut – There’s a bit of background to set the scene, but not much active plot once things get rolling. Sylvain has been in Fhirdiad, Margravine Byleth has been running the show in Gautier. Reunion time!

The Cat – I’m not sure if I want to finish this one, but the gist of it is that in academy phase there is this one very large tomcat which has decided to hang out in the Blue Lions classroom, and he’s in a bit of a state because he’s unwell. I’ve mostly been pantsing so I don’t know what the fuller plot is, but there will be a time jump to war phase and the big fluffy guy will come back looking strong and hearty. Something along the lines of ‘parallels between Dimitri Then and Dimitri Now, but with contrast provided by the physical wellbeing of a domesticated feline’.

The Grand Cathedral of Garreg Mach – Azure Moon. Getting fancy with the metaphors again to compare the absolute state the cathedral is in at the beginning of war phase to the absolute state of one Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd during the same time period. The cathedral gets repaired as time passes; Dimitri's mental health improves with some care and patience from those around him. Hints of Sylveth.

Greedfall

“Governor’s legates aren’t quite the same as Naut captains, my love.” – A fun little drabble about my De Sardet and Vasco having morning snuggle time and debating whether she really needs to get out of bed and attend to paperwork right this minute.

Dearest Constantin – De Sardet writing a letter that she'll never send, because she killed her cousin for the greater good.

Hades

“Am I a monster, Achilles?” – Zagreus asks Achilles for some good old-fashioned father-figure-brand reassurance because he just got his ass beat by Theseus, a.k.a. The hero king who did all of that neat stuff with killing bad guys and was granted Elysium, and his self-esteem is not high.

Hypnos/Zagreus smut – Barely any background and no plot to speak of.

Mass Effect

“Tell me something about you, Commander Shepard.” – Garrus/f!Shepard. We start during 1, with Garrus querying Shepard in an effort to foster a positive relationship between them, because at that stage he’s one of exactly two non-humans on the Normandy and it seems wise to make friends with the commanding officer. ‘Tell me something’ quickly becomes A Thing That The Commander And Garrus Do at incidental points across the trilogy.

“There are aliens on deck.” – My humble contribution to the classic ‘Shepard squares up with someone being less than polite about her alien crew’ scenario, but this time the perpetrator is also a Normandy crew member. No xenophobes allowed on this starship.

Alchera – The requisite expansion on Hackett’s assignment to collect dog tags and sight out a spot for a memorial on that one particular ice planet where Shepard, y’know. Died.

Banner of the First Regiment – Inspired by the turians in Purgatory who are looking for the titular artefact in 3. Shepard finds the banner and returns it, as one does when one is doing a playthrough where one is trying to do all possible assignments, and the officer buys her a drink, which turns into a drinking contest. As I was brainstorming ideas for it, I started drawing connections between the implied situation of the First and the Tennyson poem The Charge of the Light Brigade, so that will probably have some significance.

Everyone has heard of Commander Shepard. – From the POV of an as-yet nameless and faceless Alliance marine assigned to the Normandy after the Reapers first hit Earth. It’s had a few facelifts since I first started drafting it, but the core of it is a third-person perspective of Shepard at the beginning of 3 with a few hops forward in time up to and including the pickup of a certain turian sniper at Menae.

Garrus is… – Garrus/f!Shepard. The classic ‘using repetition to show something evolving while having a constant at its core’ technique.

Hell hath no fury like Shepard defending her crew. – Another one with not much of a plot yet; thus far it’s pretty much just some sections of one scene and that’s it. A rando on the Presidium starts trash talking the Normandy crew, and my dear darling Aspen Shepard reacts as any self-respecting Australian does when overhearing baseless trash talk about her friends: immediately starts shit with said rando about it.

Home – Garrus/f!Shepard. Truly disgusting fluff about Shepard having a bricks-and-mortar home that she owns for the first time in her life, thanks to Anderson’s gift. Kind of a collection of moments rather than a full narrative, but what’s important is that one of them involves Shepard asking Garrus to move in.

Lost But Not Forgotten – ME Andromeda. If you’ve played Andromeda then you’ll probably recognise the title because I lifted it directly from the questline about searching for the turian Pathfinder. In my outline notes I’ve written, and I quote, “I wonder if Ryder and Avitus would trauma or grief bond about them being Pathfinders for their respective races, and having become such Specifically because the previous Pathfinders intentionally put Ryder and Avitus before themselves because they loved them”, so that's more or less the gist, with a side of ‘Avitus was Macen’s second, but Ryder was just Alec’s kid’.

Post-EC ending – Shepard lives (😤) and, after a period of recovery and a lengthy negotiation during which she has every right to ensure her requests are met with no conditions, she gets a cruiser and a small crew and goes off to do something I haven’t plotted yet because all I have written is the emotionally compromising first chapter, post-game, from Garrus’ POV.

Sole Survivor – Everyone loves a good bit of pre-canon speculation on what kind of hell a character went through during XYZ backstory element, right?

Monster Hunter

Rider and Kyle being enemies – In context of the story progression of Wings of Ruin, the main character and Kyle resolve their differences fairly quickly. But what if they were only allies for the sake of saving the world, didn’t actually like each other or get along outside of world-saving tasks (although Kyle makes a half-hearted effort at first), and continued to butt heads for several years afterwards?

Pokémon

Crime de la Crime – Guzma/OC. The providence of this one can be traced directly back to the fateful day I entered my local cinema and watched ‘Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)’, to use that masterpiece’s full government name. Chaotic ‘hero versus… villain, question mark?’ AU, where Casey is the super-powered Spitfire and Guzma is the master thief known as Shadow.

First date – Guzma/OC. This is by no means their ‘canonical’ first date, as it were; it might end up being so, but I need to write out everything that comes before it in their timeline of events (specifically We Are Kings and the Kalos arc) to be confident it would go this way. As it stands, Guzma takes advantage of the fact that Casey thinks the occasion is special enough for a dress rather than her usual shorts-and-a-graphic-tee fare and makes a dinner reservation somewhere fancy enough that reservations are encouraged.

Grim Reaper AU – Guzma/OC. Fairly self-explanatory. Guzma is the Reaper, Casey is a recently deceased whose soul Guzma is responsible for safely escorting to the afterlife. I couldn’t just let it be simple, though, and there’s action and adventure involved as well as some ‘past lives’ flashback shenaniganry.

We Are Kings – Guzma/OC. The piece of writing which explores how Casey and Guzma get to know each other and catch feelings. Follows the broad timeline of Sun/Moon. One of the things about this one is that I started drafting it during a time when I was dealing with Stuff, so I used the original version as a way to vent my frustrations. Casey was only sparsely fleshed out at the time, but she’s much more so these years on, so I’ve been wanting to give the fic a major overhaul—i.e., demolishing the whole thing and maybe keeping a few scenes that would still work in an entirely reimagined version of the piece that allows Casey to shine more as a developed character rather than just as a Face for Audrey’s Self-Insert Guzma Fantasies. I had been posting the original version on AO3 until I decided to rewrite, and it’s still accessible (incomplete) Here. I might even leave it up once I get the reboot sorted, just as a fun point of reference.

Kalos University arc – Guzma/OC. I’m making myself keep this mostly in the planning phase because how it pans out is directly related to how We Are Kings goes. But, in summary: Casey, having figured out roughly what she wants out of life, decides to do her undergrad at an entirely made-up university campus back in Kalos. Guzma stays in Alola. It’s kind of a ‘long-distance situationship’ thing.

ME Casey AU – Vega/OC as well as Guzma/OC (with a side helping of @fightfortheusers' Makai), so it really could have gone either under this heading or Mass Effect, but she was a Pokémon OC first, so that’s where I’ve decided to keep the folder. Another which is more a collection of scenarios than a fic, but there is this whole thing about Casey being one of the Normandy crew members abducted by the Collectors in 2 which could probably be refined into a proper work with the amount of content it has.

Paramore The Only Exception – Guzma/OC. Requisite ‘but what if it wasn’t mutual pining’ fic, as per the angst fic writer playbook. One-sided, with Casey as the ‘side’.

Plumeria glances at her – Plumeria/OC. Just a Plumeria/Casey drabble, because Casey is my little bisexual angel baby.

Small-time Rock Band AU – Guzma/OC. Me being a dirty rotten former 5SOS diehard, I wouldn't be myself if I didn't have at least one of this flavour of AU. Casey is the guitarist in a locally renowned band of which Piers Swordandshield and Olivia Sunandmoon are also members. Guzma is in the audience one night. That's as far as I've got so far, but if I know my own mind, I'll come back to it shortly.

That being said – Raihan/OC. This one stars my Galar OC, Lottie. There is some sort of red carpet event pre-relationship, and the gym challenger whom Lottie manages (@fightfortheusers' Matteo, icyww) has managed to wrangle her an invitation to said event as Raihan's plus-one. She wants to strangle the kid, it's very funny.

Redacted Audio

Inversion – Milo/Sweetheart. The contents are pretty self-evident; I’m subjecting everyone to Inversion fic. While what I’ve drafted thus far is from Sweetheart’s POV, I think it would be fun and not at all upsetting to include the rest of the listeners whose partners are involved in the storyline. The opening will be the aforementioned Sweetheart POV, including them getting a situation report and proceeding to shit themselves in worry without reprieve until they see that Milo wound up on the outside of the ward.

Helping your feisty werewolf boyfriend shift again – Milo/Sweetheart. This one came to me before the Inversion fic, so I guess I’m working backwards? Stay tuned next year for Freelancer & Caelum baking fic, if the trend continues. With this one the intent is to put an actual written voice to how Sweetheart might have reacted to Milo “I am at my limit” Greer having a very understandable breakdown about his damaged core and unresponsive shifter magic.

When The Night Comes

“Gods above and below.” – Omen/Alkar/Hunter. Zeina has been out of town on a solo assignment, but the day she was supposed to get back has come and gone with neither word nor sign of her. Alkar is freaking out, Omen is only freaking out a bit less. But oh, what’s this? Here she comes, stumbling through the woods concussed and bleeding profusely! Basically, it’s an injury recovery fic.

The novelty hasn’t quite worn off – Omen/Alkar/Hunter smut. Without going into too much detail for the sake of the timeline, this work is Zeina being disgustingly in love with her partners while also trying very hard not to give them the satisfaction of having reduced her to begging.

Zeina dress – Omen/Alkar/Hunter. It’s midwinter, there isn’t much work to do because most creatures dislike the cold, and Zeina is losing it a bit so she decides to make herself a pretty outfit to cope.

Honourable mention for media where the fic ideas I have are languishing in the brainstorming stage: Errant Kingdom.

There are also. Several original works. I might make a separate post for those, if anyone is interested in more of my half-baked fictional projects?

Candy Floss Cart Hire

Hire A Candy Floss Cart, Fun For All Think happy thoughts and eat happy food! Treat your guests to candy floss cart hire, the number one most popular sweet treat, candy floss, fairy floss, cotton candy, papas beard, suikerspin or ghosts beard. Candy Floss Service •Different Flavours •Different Colours Every nation seems to have its own name for it but it all refers to the magical spun sugar dessert. Made using an electric machine that heats and melts sugar. Then spinning it through tiny holes to create that fluffy spider web confection that everyone loves. A candy floss cart is great for weddings, parties, college balls and corporate events. You can brand the actual candy floss with text, logo's and shapes, so you could have the bride and grooms names on your actual floss. Candy floss is also becoming popular in other arenas, many high end gin and prosecco bars offer it as a garnish in their drinks, and some brides are even carrying candy floss bouquets! Flavoured Candy Floss Cart Hire Pink candy floss is a firm favourite, but we offer various flavours and colours including; •Pink Vanilla. •Cherry Red. •Blue Raspberry. •Grape Purple. •Lemon Yellow. •Orange. •Bubble Gum. •Pina Colada. •Sassy Apple. •Hot Cinnamon. •Green Watermelon. Fluffy magic floss is often booked for the children, but ends up being enjoyed by guests of all ages. Watching the candy floss being made is almost as much fun as eating it and never fails to amaze the younger guests. Add Popcorn Machine Hire To Double The Fun One of our most popular fun foods options is to add popcorn. Which can be supplied together on the same cart as the candyfloss machine, or with a seperate popcorn cart. Although ice cream seems to be a bit of a rising star when it comes to additional options. One operator can operate and serve both items, reducing the price for you, but giving your guests twice the treat. Popcorn can be supplied, sweet, salted or in various gourmet flavours. The Real Secret Behind Candy Floss. Most people will talk about melting points of sugar, centripetal force etc. But that's just a cover story. In the bottom of each machine ( cotton candy machine if you are American), lives a band of happy goblins, merrily taking the candy floss sugar and knitting it into the fluffy sweet confectionary we all know and love. Our operator then twizzles a stick to collect the floss. Our Cart Hire Options Choose from a range of carts that the candy floss can be supplied on, including; •Traditional Victorian Vintage Style. •Alpine Winter Hut. •Contemporary Branded. •Ultra Modern L.E.D. •Tuk Tuk. We can design and build a completely one off custom structure for sales promotions or exhibition use. It also possible to supply floss in branded tubs as part of a sales promotion or exhibition. Themed carts are available for holiday events such as Halloween, Christmas, Valentine etc. For those who are worried about the health concerns with candy floss, although it is basically just flavoured sugar, it is more air than sugar. Indeed a standard serving has far less sugar than a soft drink. As a family run business we source the best quality flavours and ingredients for you. Candy floss cart hire adds a fun touch to any event.It was invented by a dentist! First sold for 25c, the equivalent to almost $7 today, or in pounds of the realm, it first sold for 5p, the equivalent today of £5.90. At the St Louis Worlds Fair, they sold 68,655 boxes of floss for a total of $17,163, equivalent to $478,025 today. Threads of cotton candy are thinner than the human hair. In 2009 someone invented a fairy floss vending machine. The worlds longest floss came in at 1,400 metres, and took 6 hours to make. Street vendors in China, use it to create edible artworks. It is fat free. A typical portion contains less sugar than a can of soda. Today's machines, use basically the same technology as when it was first invented.Where do you cover with your candy floss service. The entire U.K. Is it Vegan? Most flavours are, but some such as red floss contain ingredients derived from beetle shells!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 Read the full article

Headcanon: A week without you

You plan to set out on a week-long trip with Anna, Kiki and Willow.

How do the guys react to the news and cope during your absence?

🌹VICTOR🌹

Before you leave

As the day of your long-awaited trip approaches, you can barely rein in your excitement

Meanwhile, Victor gets more and more grumpy

“Are you sure you should be going on a trip at this time?”

“Wouldn’t your company end up in shambles with half the staff gone?”

“Goldman informed me that your ticket is refundable.”

Despite his attempts to stop you from leaving his side for the trip, he also sees how much you’ve been looking forward to it

So he eventually relents, and even offers suggestions to include in your list of itinerary

Victor isn’t the type to show affection in public, so you’re surprised when he suddenly wraps his fingers around your wrist at the airport

He lifts it up gently, strapping a wine-coloured watch onto your wrist

It has an incredibly cute design - the face of the watch features an adorable white bunny, with its tiny paws pointing towards the time

“Whenever you look at it, you’ll know that I’m waiting for you to come home.”

(Meanwhile, Anna, Kiki and Willow are standing at the side and screaming internally)

During the trip

He understands how rare it is for you to have a proper break, so he doesn’t disturb you unnecessarily

In fact, you are the one who disturbs him at 3am when his phone gets flooded with photographs of your trip, each one accompanied with a notification chime

Luckily for you, he doesn’t mind it too much

He sighs while scrolling through the photos with a look of affection

“That dummy forgot about the time zone differences.”

Once you’re back

Brings you to Souvenir and whips up a FEAST

Ends the magnificent meal with a dessert you’ve never seen before

“I created it in the week you were gone. Let me know what you think.”

It’s a petite, cube-shaped cake layered with Chantilly cream and drizzled with chocolate, a rose petal resting on top of it

You bring the dessert fork to your mouth

It tastes sweet, but there’s also slight tinge of bitterness that gives it a certain mellow flavour

“I’ll give it an A+, as expected of the finest chef in Loveland City. Is this going to be a new item on Souvenir’s menu?”

“Yes.”

“What is it called?”

He pauses before answering.

“The Taste of Longing.”

You suddenly feel a little shy, and try to change the topic. You hand him the fork.

“H-have you tried it?”

He lets out a sigh, sets the fork aside, and pulls you into a deep, intoxicating kiss

After he draws back, he stares at your flustered expression and responds with the smug grin you missed so dearly over the past week

“I just did.”

🌻KIRO🌻

Before you leave

The day before the trip, he literally refuses to let you go

Especially after he realises he wouldn’t get to see you off at the airport in person due to a scheduled interview

So he has been latching onto your arm and following you everywhere

“I need to use the bathroom Kiro.”

“I’ll keep my eyes closed, I promise!”

As the dusk settles in and the hours left together dwindles, Kiro grows quieter

His head is resting on your lap as he stares at you intently, as though engraving your face into his memory

You try to cheer him up, tousling his golden blonde hair

“On the bright side, you’ll have the bed all to yourself!”

Kiro brightens up for split second before his expression returns to a pout

“It’s not fun when you’re not in it...”

During the trip

Tries to cope by stuffing himself with tidbits and ice-cream

Savin does not approve.

But snacks don’t taste as good when he doesn’t have you to share them with (or snatch them from)

Tries to cope by playing games past midnight

Savin does not approve.

But games aren’t as fun when he doesn’t hear your voice congratulating him for achieving a new high score

Tries to cope by drowning himself in work

Savin approves... but senses that something is off with Kiro

Savin spends more time with Kiro this week, even bringing him to his favourite hotpot place and treating him to extra desserts

Once you’re back

You decide to surprise Kiro in the studio after receiving a bunch of texts from a worried Savin

Kiro almost bursts into tears

He might not have Gavin’s Evol, but that doesn’t stop him from flying across the room to wrap you in a bear hug, almost tripping over his violin case in the process

After dinner, you’re both on the couch as he listens to you ramble on and on about how fun the trip was

Kiro interrupts you with a long, impatient kiss

After he pulls away, the both of you a little breathless, the cheeky glint in his eyes doesn’t go unnoticed

“You want fun? I’ll show you just how much fun we can have together.”

🎐GAVIN🎐

Before you leave

Even though you’re used to spending long periods of time apart given the nature of his work, it never gets easier

“Maybe I could come along as a bodyguard?”

As tempted as you are at the prospect, you turn him down gently

It’s meant to be an all-girls trip after all

At the airport, Gavin goes into full-blown maternal mode:

“Remember to check the weather forecast every morning.”

“Yes Officer Gavin.”

“Remember to apply sunscreen before going outdoors.”

“Yes Officer Gavin.”

“Remember to sleep early.”

“Yes Officer Gavin.”

He sighs and encases you in a long hug, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.

“And remember... to think of me often.”

You almost tear up in response to the sheer sadness in his voice

“That’s not something I need to remember. It happens naturally.”

During the trip

He’s not used to returning to a quiet, lifeless house

Sends you little updates about his day

[Text from Gavin:] Saw the stars on my way home tonight. Even though you’re halfway across the world, I feel as though I can sense you, just like how we can still see the faraway stars.

[Text from Gavin:] I saw a squirrel today. It’s cute. It reminded me of you.

[Text from Gavin:] Hung out with Minor today. He told me how lonely he feels in the office these days without you girls around. Seems like we finally found something in common. I miss you.

Purchases a succulent and places it beside Thorny because he doesn’t want it to feel lonely

He names it Mrs Thorny

Once you’re back

Arrives at the airport at least an hour early to wait for you

Sends Anna, Kiki and Willow home by car as a gesture of gratitude for taking care of you over the past week

“He’s a keeper,” whispers Anna.

Helps you unpack while you take a bath

Chances upon the overtly sensual lingerie you bought during the trip (thanks to Kiki’s persuasive skills)

You happen to step out of the bathroom at this very moment, watching as Gavin lifts the dark blue lace from the luggage

The blood drains from your face as you scramble to snatch it out of his hands

“Ahh! That’s meant for your birthday!”

Poor Birdcop is still reeling from shock

So he responds with whatever comes to mind

“For me? But I don’t wear lingerie.”

The both of you just stare at each other, processing this whole situation

It’s not long before every corner of the house gets filled with your laughters mingling together

Both your faces flushed from a mixture of embarrassment and laughter, you collapse into his embrace, soaking up his warmth...

...and you’re finally home.

⚡️SHAW⚡️

Before you leave

You kind of expected Shaw’s response when you told him about your plans...

“Sure, have fun.”

“You aren’t even going to pretend that you’d miss me?”

“Nah, it’s not like you’d be gone for a decade. Pretty sure I’ll survive.”

He does skip his morning class to send you off at the airport though

His heart suddenly feels the slightest bit heavier once you disappear from view with the girls in the departure hall

Shrugs it off and heads back to school

During the trip

While Shaw isn’t the clingy sort, he does get bored easily

Especially since his partner in crime isn’t around

Sends you pictures of the shark plushie in different poses

e.g. sitting upright on the dining chair

[Text from Shaw:] Sharkie says he misses you. Gave him a talk on how to be a big, independent boy.

e.g. leaning against a spray paint can

[Text from Shaw:] Sharkie tried spray-painting today but got a little bit of paint on himself. Do you know if he’s machine washable?

e.g. wearing one your hairbands

[Text from Shaw:] Sharkie rummaged through your wardrobe today. Doesn’t he look handsome?

Changes his phone’s lockscreen to a different picture of you every day

Of course, he selects photos that should never see the light of day - a picture of your mouth wide open in an unladylike manner as you prepare to bite into a hamburger, a picture of you almost falling off a skateboard, a picture of you sleeping with drool trailing from the corner of your mouth onto the sheets...

You really need to do a thorough cleansing of his photo gallery.

Since his usual source of entertainment is enjoying herself without him halfway across the globe, this is as close as he gets to having fun

Once you’re back

The moment you set down your luggage at home, he drags you to Live House

The intense strobe lights shroud the way Shaw gazes at you with a rare tenderness

Immersed in the loud music, you have no idea that clouds have gathered outside, followed by the gentle patter of rain

You almost miss Shaw’s words as his lips brush against your ear

“I missed you.”

🦋LUCIEN🦋 (I’m not kidding when I say I can’t write Lucien. For all of our sakes, this shall be the first and last time 😂)

Before you leave

Takes you to see the fireflies

Catches one and names it “Angst”

During your trip

Exists sadly

Attempts to make conversation with Angst

When you’re back

Exists happily

Sets Angst free since his favourite butterfly has returned to his side

“You’re good!” Patton shouted as Remus backed into the narrow driveway next to the bakery. His truck was filled with paints, tools, hardware supplies and a very happy looking dog. Janus stood by watching to make sure Remus didn’t hit anything. When The truck was backed in enough Remus killed the engine and jumped out, Patton rushed up to the tray of the truck and began petting the dog. Cain happily soaked up the love, Remus began hauling items out of the truck. “Who are you baby? You’re adorable!” Patton cooed, Remus smiled and Janus rolled his eyes.

“His name is Cain.” Remus said and grunted as he pulled out a metal tool box. “If you scratch his chin he’ll never leave you alone.”

“He also eats my food and doesn’t pay rent so I wouldn’t mind that.” Janus added. Cain jumped out of the truck and Patton knelt down to scratch his chin as instructed. Cain put up his head and closed his eyes.

“Oh you’re so cute! I love you!” Patton continued, Remus couldn’t stop watching him. The little dimples in his cheeks, how much love was in his eyes when he looked at Cain, Remus wondered what it would be like to have Patton look at him like that. His mind raced back to the thoughts he had a few days ago.

“Damn, you’re so cute.” Patton whispered as he bit his lip. Remus was on top of Patton and his hair perfectly fell around Patton’s face, creating a tunnel for just the two of them. Remus lent down and pressed his forehead against Patton’s, both men closing their eyes. Remus’ breath caught in his throat which caused him to let out a small noise. “I lo-.”

Remus was brought back with a pinch to his ribs.

“Ow, what the fuck?” Remus exclaimed as he swatted away Janus’ hand. These thoughts were getting out of hand. Yes they were fun but very distracting and uncontrollable.

“Roman told me to do it if you got distracted.” Janus shrugged and walked away with a crate of spray paints. Patton felt guilty for not doing anything, he joined Remus at the back of the truck.

“What can I do?” Patton asked. Remus looked around a moment, not sure how much Patton could carry.

“Uh, can you get that ladder for Janus?” Remus replied. “Only if you can.” Remus worried. Patton smiled smugly. He leant forward and dragged the ladder out, easily carrying it with one hand. He walked past Remus just as Janus walked back over.

“I carry ten kilo bags of flour two at a time.” Patton looked back and flashed a smile. “Don’t worry about me, honey.” Patton walked away and Remus followed half stammering some apologies.

Jan: Just talk to him ffs he looks incapable of hurting you

Virgil sat on the kitchen counter while Patton ran around grabbing ingredients, Janus and Remus were working in the other room. Virgil balanced a phone between his shoulder and ear, hold music played loudly from it.

“What are they saying?” Patton whispered. Virgil put up a finger as a signal to wait.

“That makes no sense, you would’ve known the location before taking the order. If it was too remote you shouldn’t have taken the order in the first place.” The voice began again but it wasn’t long before Virgil interrupted. “No, I understand but you should have contacted him, or at the least gave him an answer instead of bouncing him between numbers. Will we be getting a refund?” Virgil swung his legs off the table as the voice spoke more, Patton began dropping ingredients into a mixer. “That isn’t how it works, your contract said you’d deliver th-” Virgil was cut off by the voice followed with a disconnect sound. He threw down his phone and pressed his hands to his face. He took a deep breath and ran his hands through his hair.

“They don’t have my sign do they?” Patton asked sadly. Remus walked over to the kitchen entrance to listen in.

“No they have it, but they won’t deliver to such a remote location. It’s at a warehouse in the city. They’ll refund the delivery fee but you have to pick up the sign yourself.” Virgil explained. Patton put down the top of the mixer and clicked it on before turning to Virgil.

“How? My car is tiny!” Patton panicked, Remus quickly moved to him and put a hand on his shoulder as comfort.

“It’s alright.” Remus soothed. “I’ll go get it for you tomorrow.” Patton felt guilty. All these people were so quick to help him but he had nothing to give in return.

“No I need you for the picnic.” Patton reminded him. Remus had influence and in his own way always knew what he was doing, that made Patton feel comfortable. The confidence he exuded was…

“I’ll go get it now then.” Remus suggested. He took out some keys and spun them around his finger. “Virge, message me the address.” Remus liked long drives, they helped him think. And with everything that was happening, the thoughts he was having, he could use some time to think. Patton looked around, seeing who he would be left alone with. He didn’t have a problem with making friends usually but two people he’d just met?

“I can’t ask you to do that, Remus.” Patton said, hoping Remus would catch the hint. Unfortunately he didn’t.

“It’s all good, just watch Cain for me until I’m back. He doesn’t like long drives.” Remus informed as he walked out the door. The elderly cattle dog padded up to Patton and leant on his leg, his innocent puppy eyes were very different to his owner's devilish gleam. Patton wanted to scratch him but needed to check his batter.

Quite a few minutes of awkward silence went by. Patton tasted his batter and added some more tweaks, Janus used a thick lead pencil to sketch a drawing to paint over and Virgil did… something on his phone. Janus looked into the kitchen, Virgil looked awkwardly across at Patton. He sighed. Virgil wasn’t the biggest fan of new people and Patton clearly was caught off guard with Remus’ dramatic exit. Janus pulled out his phone and texted Virgil.

Virgie: hnnngg social anxiety

Jan: Just ask if he needs help!

“How much business can a sign company have?” Virgil complained, Patton laughed across the room. Finally the hold music halted and Patton heard a voice drone through the phone. “Hello, I am calling on behalf of Froggy And Doggy Bakery. We ordered a sign last year and it still hasn’t arrived.” Virgil said in a professional voice. The person on the other end typed some stuff then told him something. Patton put down the eggs he had in his hands and rushed in front of Virgil.

Virgil looked over at Janus who nodded gently in response, Virgil took a deep breath.

“Patton?” Virgil said across the room. Patton looked up from mixing some flavours through the batter. “Is there… can I help?” Virgil mumbled. Patton wasn’t surprised anymore, he began thinking maybe all the tall men in this town had an agenda to kill him with favours. He giggled and pointed to a few aprons on a hook.

“Grab one and come over here.” Patton smiled. Virgil walked to the hook and pulled off a pink apron, he tied it up and joined Patton at the mixer. Patton pulled out a toothpick and dipped it in the mixture before thrusting it to Virgil. “Try this.” Virgil took the stick and licked off the batter. The delicate and fluffy batter had a strong punch of lemon and vanilla. The flavours tingled the back of Virgil’s jaw.

“That’s nice but maybe a little… strong.” Virgil shared. Patton laughed and took back the toothpick to throw away.

“The flavour will dilute after baking, it has to be strong or you won’t taste it.” Patton clarified. He threw the toothpick into the sink and rummaged in a draw, pulling out some dainty white mini cupcake papers and a large patty cake tray. “Can you put one paper in each tray? I have to take out the meringues." Patton looked across the room to see Janus had abandoned the drawing and was in the kitchen entrance. Patton walked across to the oven and pulled out a tray of cute pastel pink meringues shaped like flat roses. Virgil began dropping the papers into the tray. The large tray probably had two dozen holes, each no bigger than an inch in diameter. Janus leant down to pet Cain while the others worked. Patton used a spatula to scrape off the sweet treats and place them in a plastic container. Janus watched Patton's hands, how smoothly he scraped off a meringue with one thrust and gently laid it on top of the others in the container. It looked effortless yet Janus was sure if he tried he'd snap at least half of them in two. Patton noticed Janus staring from the corner of his eye, he tried his best to stay calm and focus. Meringues were small and light, which means they're easy to crush. He was thankful he had Virgil to take care of the patty cake papers so he could focus and take his time. Patton placed the last meringue in the container and looked up in time to see Virgil place the last paper.

He’s really nice albeit a little dry and blunt.

"Thanks. I'll put in the batter to make sure they all have the right amount." Patton thanked. Virgil nodded and looked up at Janus, he smiled smugly.

“Wrist is tired, needed a break.” Janus opposed in a friendly tone. “Also couldn’t miss you wearing that cute pink apron.” Janus chuckled as he turned around his phone to show a picture of Virgil in the apron holding the small cake papers, Patton also stifled a laugh. Virgil took off the apron and hung it back up.

“Send that to anyone and I’ll add another 10 hours to your community service.” Virgil warned.

“Too late.” Janus smirked. “Officer Honeycutt loves seeing her recovered little delinquent.”

“Well we can’t all be teenagers graffitiing forever.” Virgil shot back. Patton looked up.

“Who is Officer Honeycutt?” Patton asked, both boys looked over like they had forgotten he was there.

“My mother.” Janus said as he put away his phone. “Don’t worry, she doesn’t give anyone trouble. Most she’ll do ya for is drunk and disorderly but you don’t seem that type.” Virgil and Janus laughed, but it felt friendly. Not like laughing at Patton but joking with him. He laughed too.

“And Virgil does?” Patton joked, both men laughed again and shared a look.

“You’d be surprised what he used to get up too.” Janus eluded. Virgil hit him in the shoulder and picked up his bag. Patton’s nerves had disappeared, he wasn’t sure when but they were gone.

“I’m going to get myself a coffee and take Cain out for a bathroom break.” Virgil announced before turning to point at Janus. “Play nice.” Janus smirked.

“How nice exactly?” Janus asked mischievously. Virgil gave him a serious stare, Janus put up his hands in surrender. “Alright!” He surrendered. Virgil left with Cain and suddenly Patton was alone with Janus. He had no problem with Janus but out of all the friends Patton had met he seemed the most critical. Or more accurately, most straightforward with his judgement. Patton began scooping batter into the papers with two metal spoons. Janus entered the kitchen and sat on a counter, closely watching. Patton was a man in chains, facing the judge and waiting for his sentence. Remus’ voice echoed through his head.

Patton tried his best to focus. Everything would be fine.

“What makes you think Remus is so sexy?” Janus said suddenly and plainly. Patton dropped the spoons in shock and batter splattered over a few of the papers. His face burned a furious red. Patton looked back at Janus who was unfazed. “Is it his moustache?”

“Shouldn’t you be drawing?” Virgil teased as Patton gathered more items.

“That- I don’t-” Patton tried as he shakily recovered the spoons. His head raced. He didn’t think of Remus like that… did he? Even if he did he was too busy to make a move. And with everything that happened with his last partner he wasn’t sure if he was ready to move on. He attempted to gather all his thoughts into a sentence. “I don’t have time to think of Remus like that and he doesn’t think of me that way either so what’s the point?” He hoped that answer was good enough. He cleared his mind and went back to scooping batter.

“Funny, most people don’t answer when I ask them stuff like that.” Janus remarked. “They usually tell me not to ask stuff like that or refuse to answer.” Janus laughed slightly.

“I’m sure you mean well.” Patton answered. “Maybe you’re trying to protect Remus, maybe you’re trying to get to know my taste, or maybe you’re just curious. But I don’t think you’re asking for malicious intent.” Patton turned around and gave Janus a reassuring smile, he looked away.

“And how do you know that?” Janus pressed. Patton put down the spoons and picked up the tray of batter.

“You don’t seem that type.” Patton repeated with a wink. He adjusted the heat on the oven and slid in the tray all the while Janus watched him in thought.

“What if you did have the time?” Janus asked abruptly. “To think of Remus.” Patton took a moment. He brought up thoughts of Remus, thoughts where he wasn’t worried about the bakery or his mother. He smiled as he ran the scenarios through his head.

“Yeah, maybe something could happen.” Patton admitted. “But like I said, I’m pretty sure Remus doesn’t think of me that way.” He didn’t even know if Remus was into guys. He’d made the mistake of assuming that before, it didn’t turn out well.

“Interesting.” Janus muttered as he walked back to the wall he was sketching on. “Remus isn’t easy to deal with sometimes. He’s loud, will do his best to annoy you and is unpredictable. But he seems to have taken a liking to you, so here’s a little advice: set up your boundaries or he’ll tear right through you.” Janus’ advice seemed bittersweet but it did get Patton thinking.

Remus seemed gentle with him so far, was that good or bad?

Washout.8

Banners: @purpleskies1999 Pairings: Dolphintrainer!Taehyung x SharkDiver!Jin, Mer!Jimin x Reader, Scientist!Namjoon x MerKing!Jungkook, Mer!Yoongi x Mer!Hoseok. Rating: 16+ Genre: Mystery, Romance, Comedy, Drama, Fantasy, little bit of Action, Slice of life, Enemies2Lovers, Friends2lovers, Social media au, Fake Texts, Fake Subs.

Summary: Taehyung and his best friend Y/N are Dolphin trainers at Wash Out; Marine Wildlife and Theme Park. When the nerdy marine biologist and resident veterinarian Doctor Kim Namjoon goes missing; the two friends form a ragtag team with Taehyung’s rival Seokjin and a…. Fish?

[First] [Prev] [Master List] [Next]

Taehyung finished up his work and headed to the shark tanks to speak with Seokjin. What he didn’t expect was him to step out of the locker room, his dry clothes sticking to his body and hair still dripping like he hadn’t tried to dry himself at all.

Taehyung went to wave weakly and was barged by a damp shoulder. The loss of Namjoon was truly taking a toll on Seokjin and the poor guy needed a break from work to actually grieve for his friend. He was bottling everything up and it wasn’t healthy.

Pushing on Taehyung thought perhaps it would be a good idea to check up on you and the fish-man. He wanted to make sure you were okay and not doing anything that could get you killed.

Taehyung arrived and waved at you and you waved back, he noticed the young merman look at his hand and shake it to himself. Taehyung waved to him with a soft smile and watched his hand lower to a fist and he swam away.

“Are you making fun of my new friend?” You square your shoulders, even though you weren’t as tall as Taehyung you were ready to fight to protect this new friendship. He found it admirable, you had always been like this. Any creatures who couldn’t speak for themselves always had you protecting them.

“How are things going with ol’ fish tail?” Taehyung laughed as he got closer leaning over you and watching the merman circle the tank craning his neck to keep you in his sights. He seemed to be monitoring the interactions between the two of you.

“Don’t call him that, it’s not his name!” You scolded, slapping his arm and the two of you were jokingly slapping each other and the merman swam closer looking down imposingly at Taehyung.

“He likes you, all the animals do, what is your secret?” Taehyung accused, poking you once more and sitting on your desk swinging his legs. “Has he tried anything?”

“Taehyung, get out and go home.” You pushed him off the table and he stumbled aside. “Oh but if you can swing by my house and grab me some clothes and things that would be lovely. I will give you my key and send you a list via text.”

“Get to bed early, don't let that fish keep you awake, with that six pack of his.” Taehyung wiggled his eyebrows at his suggestive comment and you frowned.

“I am more worried about Dolly going into labour at any minute and having to figure everything out by myself. I tried reading over Namjoon’s work, with him not here…” Your voice trailed off.

After consoling you and assuring you were the best choice after Namjoon and that he checked his watch. “I have to hurry if I am taking the bus.”

The bus arrived at your house after twenty minutes. Taehyung had been to your apartment multiple times. So it wasn’t a shock to him that you had almost no furniture. You were a minimalist. Preferring clean and clutter free. You had appliances sure, but no sofa, only bean bags, a small table with only two chairs. To any newcomers it looked almost like the place had been robbed or was frequented by squatters.

He packed a bunch of your swimsuits, giggling when he grabbed the more alluring styles. You would definitely win the fish over in these. He made sure to conveniently forget shirts and pack only the shortest of shorts. He wanted you to have more confidence in your body.

Packing your bag with a few random items, your favourite sketchbook, pencils and snacks, Taehyung headed back to the amusement park. He walked past the security guard smiling and commenting about the long evening ahead.

He weaved past park cleaners and more security on patrol and arrived at the old marine clinic warehouse and saw you dancing to some music while making some ramen. He placed the bag down and smiled, waving at the merman, placing the keys down on the desk silently before sneaking up on you.

It seemed like the fish didn’t like this. He was banging his fists on the glass which didn’t get your attention. Taehyung was able to poke your sides with a loud ‘Boo!’. You shrieked eyes filled with fear searching the surroundings for any sign of a threat. Until they landed on Taehyung where they narrowed and a pair of chopsticks collided and bounced off his head.

“What the hell do you think you are doing?” you shouted clutching your heart, Taehyung thought it was funny watching you jump.

“Go shower while your water boils, I know how to cook Ramen.” He gestured to the bag on the table and watched you rush off. Over your shoulder he saw Jimin glaring directly at him but softening his expression when you gave him a hand sign of five fingers. He gave back a thumbs up awkwardly watching you until your figure was no longer in sight.

Taehyung spoke to you through the shower roof vent, “This fish really likes you, you should try getting in the tank again. He hasn’t stopped glaring at me since you left.”

“He isn’t glaring he just has a strong gaze” You defended, “I heard Seokjin called the office and asked for some time off, you should go check on him, he seems to be bottling up his emotions over the loss of Namjoon.”

“Yeah he doesn’t look like he is doing well.” Taehyung breathed, nodding, “I will give him the Taehyung break up special.”

“Yeah but he doesn’t like chocolate but he loves chocolate flavoured things or and he loves strawberries but doesn’t like strawberry flavoured things.” You shouted making Taehyung halt in his steps, your house keys jingling in his hand. “What he told us at the company dinner,”

Taehyung looked thoughtful for a moment and nodded, rushing off to catch the last bus. It took longer to cross the town but soon enough he had arrived at the door of Seokjin’s home. Hands full of bags, snacks and a soft plushy. The only one left in the convenience store was a Alpaca wearing a red bandana around its neck.

He took a deep breath and raised his fist to knock.

act 2 is... not fun! i can basically go down the reasons i didn’t enjoy the game without spoiling anything about the game’s actual plot.

like i’ve said already pretty much the entire charm factor of the first act is gone. act 1 laughed in the face of trial-and-error point-and-clicks that acted like you were stupid for putting the wrong two items together by giving completely unique flavour for every combination of items. even if you knew two items didn’t go together, there was incentive for you to try! act 2 has none of this. 90% of object interactions are the same almost verbatim “these items probably won’t work together” text. there’s no incentive to try out different items, which makes a majority of the game’s objectives into just “click on the one right thing and then walk to the end of the room”.

the rooms themselves are totally empty! most have between one and three interactive objects in them; any other setpieces, no matter how intriguing they might be to the player and/or the viewpoint character joey, serve no plot purpose and are therefore purely background. the few objects that can be observed have only short, dry descriptions; any object description longer than a single sentence is a RARITY. even extremely obvious and again, interesting to the player combinations yield zero returns. there’s a huge ant lusus in one scene. applying the lusus handbook to this lusus returns the message... there’s nothing in this book about giant ants.

there are entire rooms full of CHARACTERS who can’t even be OBSERVED... 4 characters in a room of maybe two dozen can be clicked on, and no real reason is given for this. i suppose the player is just expected to “recognise” who the “main characters” are because they already saw the troll call... how many years ago?

not only are the rooms empty but they are huge. they are way too large for the miniscule amount of content in them and this is ONLY compounded by the backtracking fetch quests you start being put through in the second half of the act. a character literally makes fun of you for going back and forth through the game over and over again but no remedy is provided. one of the ultimate objectives of the game involves backtracking all the way back to the START of the game... only to be told you have no reason to be there, and should walk right back to the end again.

the entire inventory system is basically a joke in this act. most of your items will not get used. when you do get a new item, you will almost invariably get rid of it again by the time you leave that same room. again, almost no item combinations result in anything funny. one of the only act 1 items that gets used in this act is - if you’ll allow me to spoil one thing - xefros’ microphone, which he gives away to another character at almost the beginning of the act. xefros’ entire "rapping about random objects” shtick from the first game is completely discarded! it literally almost feels like an excuse for the writers not to have to write any more witty flavour than they absolutely have to. joey gets a new abilitech in this act which she uses exactly once. the rest of her abilitechs are basically dead space in her inventory like everything else.

instead of the actually charming... you know... pointing and clicking aspects of the first act, the developers seem to have taken on board how popular the friendship simulators were, and tried to make act 2 a dialogue-driven character game? which would be fine if... the characters were interesting. the fact is that most of the stuff they might have wanted to explore in act 2 has ALREADY BEEN DONE, in the friendsims. let it be said that the ace attorney minigame we all knew was coming takes up about half of the game. anyone who told you hiveswap act 2 was about 8 hours of playtime obviously milked as much out of this courtroom sequence as they could, which, if you don’t care about hiveswap’s small cult cast of jadebloods and tealbloods, is very little. most of the game’s dialog was obviously written for this scene. unlike the rest of the game, almost every little combination of choices has its own unique text in this part of the game: but if you’ve never played an ace attorney game before, you will have a hard time finding any of the right or even interesting combinations. to put it bluntly, unless you were already really invested in some of the elements involved, this part of the game will be a long, boring slog.

the game isn’t even particularly funny. act 1 got laughs out of me. act 2′s jokes either fall flat or quickly beat themselves to death. the cultural references serve no purpose. ace attorney “because lawyers!” is funny as a sight gag (like terezi’s OBJECTION!s in the original homestuck) but it serves no purpose as an extended, hour-long part of gameplay. and why does an ongoing gag about KPOP of all things take up so much of this scene, in a game that’s been patting itself on the back over its appeal to 90s nostalgia? (this to me is one of the most damning examples of the what pumpkin team putting out stuff that they personally find hilarious without once stopping to wonder if it’s a product that will actually have appeal). why is the “highblood statue” used in a single scene actually an anime figurine? because anime is funny, i guess?

the game DOES look beautiful, with little exception (the game’s minimalist philosophy makes most of the rooms like pretty empty, after the immediate “wow we’re on an alien planet!” magic wears off), but i struggle to say it’s even a serviceable bit of software. the gui is practically inscrutable. every door says something different on it. “exit”? “open”? “use”? some doors just have a pair of feet hovering above them, which means “walk through door” (just like in act 1, which worked fine). except sometimes the feet just mean “walk on this floor”. it depends entirely on which room you’re standing in.

the actual gameplay is hardly any better. let’s ignore the ace attorney minigame for once. any puzzle that isn’t “bring item from character a to character b” is literally indecipherable. they’ve graciously allowed us to finally use the hint button, which is completely necessary for some of the more arcane ““puzzles”“ (which are really just more of the same trial and error click-and-clicks), but for some reason... only joey can get hints? you’re free to switch between joey and xefros at any time, but only for xefros does the button say “hints currently unavailable”. if you want hints you have to switch to joey. this has no other bearing on the gameplay.

music is fine, but not “we’ve been sitting on this soundtrack for years!” or “we got the undertale guy to compose for us!” levels of blow-your-mind incredible. it’s obvious that the soundtrack composed years ago is not reflective of a game that was clearly cobbled together within the last 15 months. did i mention that out of the 38 troll call characters who were literally advertised as “the cast of hiveswap act 2″, zebede and charun are just entirely absent without cause or explanation?

Friday 1/10/21 - Media Recommendations #20

Contents: Deltarune

I'd been meaning to get to this one for ages, so once again, I think to make it easier on myself, and my readers, today I am only recommending the latest videogame creation of Toby Fox. This ended up being quite an extensive article, so I split it into sections:

MY CONTEXT

OVERVIEW/PREMISE

GAMEPLAY

PRESENTATION

CONCLUSION

Deltarune (Chapter 1+2)

Toby Fox

1. MY CONTEXT

So context for my own gaming experience going into Deltarune, I have never actually played Undertale. Back when Undertale was getting big, it was only a PC game I think, and I just don't play games on PC. I probably should but yeah nah. Soon after it got popular however, I watched a comprehensive Lets Play of Undertale by Rubber Ross and Barry Kramer, and their voices for Sans and Papyrus are still to this day how I imagine those characters. Through that Lets Play, I experienced both the Pacifist and Genocide runs, and got intimately well acquainted with the characters and world Toby Fox had created, and how the actions of the player can shape how we save or ruin that world.

As a general context, I have always been a person who likes the idea of turn-based, random encounter fantasy RPGs, but the deepest I really got was Pokémon. I've been trying to change that recently, and after beating Monster Hunter Stories 2 a while back, I wanted to try more of the genre. Turn based battles are a lot more my speed than pure skill, like fighting games I've become sick of, and RPGs seem to be big on story, so when I heard the Deltarune demo had an update, I thought this is finally the time to jump into that world.

Going forward in this review, I'm gonna try and stay broad and unspecific with my descriptions, so as to not spoil. I may discuss some gameplay themes and characters, but I'm avoiding giving specifics away. I really think you need to experience all parts of the game yourself first.

Minor Spoilers for Undertale and Deltarune Ahead

2. OVERVIEW/PREMISE

Deltarune is a project of love. Pure charm and personality ooze from every aspect of the game. Dialogue is clever and snarky, and that charm even leaks into item and location flavour text. The setting and themes are fun, but with a bloodstained silver lining that is best appreciated by mature audiences. I guess I should just explain the premise?

Deltarune puts you in the shoes of a human named Kris. For unexplained reasons you live in a world of monsters and you are the only human. And by monsters, I mean curious looking critters of a variety of shapes and sizes, since, there is really nothing monstrous about them. One day at school, Kris and classmate Susie end up being transported to a whole different world where dark fountains construct monstrous subworlds, and it is up to the chosen ones, the lightners Susie, Kris and darkner (dark world native) Prince Ralsei, to seal the evils of this dark alternate world.

Deltarune is still a work in progress, and as the subtitle of this article suggests, 2 Chapters of a possible 7(?) have been released, and it is unknown at the time of writing if the rest will come out when the game is done, or as more standalone chapters.

3. GAMEPLAY

Deltarune borrows a lot of theming and game loop premise from its parent game Undertale. The tag line of Undertale was: the RPG where noone has to die. This is because the encounter based battle system is built on two courses of action to take. You may FIGHT enemies and reduce their HP to zero, or you may ACT, and talk the enemy into leaving the battle. Deltarune is built on this same system, but with extra layers. Kris is the stand in for the Undertale MC, who has the options to FIGHT, ACT, ITEM, SPARE, or GUARD. Most of those options were in Undertale too, but Guarding is a new addition where you earn Tension Points, or TP, for not engaging the enemy at all.

This TP is used for extra powerful ACT actions, or for special moves of the other party members. This is the main big difference in gameplay loop. Since the player controls a party now rather than just one person, each party member can specialise in different action types. Kris's ACT can incorporate input from other party members; Susie for toughness and Ralsei for softness, in general. Susie is the powerhouse, and if you chose the violent route, she does more damage. Ralsei is the Mage, and can heal allies, as well as use magic to resolve fights peacefully. Those extra abilities use TP.

In most turn based RPGs, there is a back and forth, where the player chooses actions, and sometimes there is a timing aspect to how well those actions perform, and then there's the enemy's turn, where most of the time you just have to wait and let it happen. Undertale and Deltarune have this truly unique system where the soul of the party members, represented by a heart, is directly controlled on the enemy's turn. It's a mini game unique to every enemy type, where you must move the heart around to dodge their attacks, and how good you dodge will decide whether you take a lot of damage, or even none at all. Deltarune adds an extra layer onto this, where if you make the dodge closer, so that the enemy only JUST misses, you earn TP, and open up more options for your next turn. I found this extra detail really endearing, and I made a lot more riskier moves than if there was no incentive to.

I probably mentioned it above, but just to close out this section, the option to either ACT or FIGHT opens up two types of play. Chapter 1, being a sort of intro part, does not differentiate, but the distinction becomes important later. ACTing to SPARE an enemy earns you money, and in Chapter 2, will lead to befriending monsters. FIGHTing will also earn you EXP in Chapter 2, making your options to hurt enemies more powerful. In Undertale, this difference in playstyle actually changed the ending in real time, and from what we know of Deltarune, it is likely going to be the same case.

4. PRESENTATION

Undertale had this unique visual charm to it that may have been a limitation of its Independent Development, but it was probably also a stylistic choice. Deltarune builds on the same type of artstyle, adorable pixel sprite graphics that bring a lot more colour and depth than its predecessor.

Many, but not all characters have little character portraits in their textboxes, and they change expressions to match the situation, and its so cute.

Character and enemy design are so top-notch. A team of designers have been brought on this time, and every one of them have brought gold to the table. Every random battle encounter is dripping with personality, as you learn how best to sweet talk your way out of battle, or how to best destroy them. Most recurring NPCs are lovable, and those who you hate, you love to hate. Dialogue is witty and hilarious, and the writing is fun.

The chiptune style soundtrack is phenomenal. Although I think Undertale's common enemy battle them was more memorable, that may just be that I have become more familiar with it. All character and boss battle themes are so catchy and energetic. Toby Fox is a master of high energy... fun music. It gets stuck in your head, and your brain bounces around at high velocity.

5. CONCLUSION

Ok so this review is already like 3 times longer than a normal Media Recommendation Article, and like 5 times longer than I planned it to be for this one game, so I should probably wrap it up here. Deltarune is a game experience I put off playing for way too long, and now I can't hold my excitement for when the next part comes out. And important to keep in mind, it is essentially a demo, in that it is just a taste of what's to come, but it is a damn meaty demo that will keep you engaged for many hours.

Chapters 1 and 2 are packaged together as a free game on most game platforms at this point, so there's nothing really stopping you from giving it a try. I don't usually rate my recommendations, but since I wrote this more like a review, I might as well...

Deltarune Chapter 1+2: 9/10

Please play it!

MUSHROOM KINGDOM LIFE

VOL.1 ITEMS AND OBJECTS

in this instructional book/guide you'll learn about history,effects and fun information about the various objects found all round the mushroom planet and beyond, of course we aren't including everything as there is just too many to one person to read, in this book we are focusing in magical objects and high tech machines and a few exceptions like the hammer and some shells, now please enjoy the first edition of mushroom kingdom life

MUSHROOMS

1-UP MUSHROOM

1-Up Mushrooms are known for their healing properties, and so many hospitals use them for medicinal purposes. Some hospitals even have greenhouse rooms designed specifically to best grow the mushrooms so a supply is always on hand.These mushrooms can also be turned into soup making for easier storage and quick healing, and if the body hasn’t been completely destroyed, the mushroom’s energy will be able to revive the corpse, no matter what state it is in. The rumor that collecting 100 coins magically gives one a 1-Up has been confirmed to be false.

SUPER MUSHROOM

Super Mushrooms, commonly referred to as simple Mushrooms, are the staple crop of the Mushroom Kingdom and, by virtue of that, one of the most common power ups in existence. Due to it's easy to cultivate nature, it can be widely grown throughout all biomes. Many well-known dishes involve a Super Mushroom in the recipe, and for good reason, as not only do they taste excellent, but the mushrooms are very healthy and even have mild healing properties. There are also varieties with more potent recovery properties--Blue “Super” Shrooms and Green “Ultra” Shrooms. Shroom Shakes, canned soups made especially to be drunk on the go, offer a quick way to achieve the healing benefits of these varieties. Super Mushrooms also have an interesting effect similar to steroids, in a small enough concentration that most wouldn’t ever notice it. In a pinch, the effect can increase a person’s strength and even cause temporary growth. This "strength and growth" effect can also be extracted for use in agriculture as fertilizer, increasing the growth speed of plants up to 300%.

MEGA MUSHROOM

Mega Mushrooms were first discovered in Giant Land, most abundantly in the province of TIny Huge Island. It is commonly theorized, though not yet confirmed, that the Mega Mushroom is an evolved form of the Super Mushroom created by the same phenomena affecting the rest of Giant Land’s natural landscape and inhabitants. These mushrooms are generally used as fertilizer, not only providing a moderate increase in growth speed, but also nearly doubles the size of the crops. The caveat to this is that in return for their large power, they require large amounts of care and nutrients, and can take as long as 5 years to reach maturity unaided.

BEE MUSHROOM

The bee mushroom was first discovered by Well known mushroom kingdom hero "super mario" where during his first space adventure,it was discovered in honey hive galaxy, it was used by mario to befriend the bee queen from the bee kingdom, the bee mushroom has a sweet honey taste and is used in culinary items mostly candy, sweets and drinks, it also makes people holding a bee mushroom 50% more charismatic towards bees making it perfect for diplomacy missions with the bee kingdom

BIG MUSHROOM

Many people confuse the mega mushroom with the big mushroom, while both have high concentrations of bignium the mega mushroom has twice the amount of bignium that the big mushroom has, if all the bignium was extracted from a mega mushroom and injected at once it would increase the size of the user by 500% the og, the big mushroom increases by 250%, the big mushroom is used as fertilizer and as a food source( generally with all the bignium extracted to turn into fertilizer) and uses less resources to cultivate than a mega mushroom

BOO MUSHROOM

The boo mushroom is found in haunted places, it used as "food" for boos and ghosts, but when used by a living being it will temporarily turn them into a boo, it last for atleast 15 minutes and the longest one taking a whole week to run out, after the effect is done they will turn back to normal, it is generally used to negotiate with ghosts and boos,it was once used to infiltrate king boo's castle, it was reported by Mario that the boo mushroom was found in other planets as well

BLORP MUSHROOM

Blorp mushroom is an genetically modified mushroom made by fawful in 2009 and is the cause of the blorp virus pandemic that lasted from 2009 to 2010,this mushroom is purple and has high amounts of an pownon gas like substance wich makes users round making them useless, this disease unlike most power ups with similar effects this mutation was permanent luckily an antidote was made, it took some time for scientists to discover the source and in its peak 3% of mushroom people were affected

CURSED MUSHROOM

The cursed mushroom is a variation of the well known poison mushroom, unlike the poisom mushroom this one takes a week to affect the user and it makes the user deadly sick, it is usually found in haunted places but it can be grown in any soil,it can be used to make anti poison and some recipes use the stem of the cursed mushroom for extra flavour but its realy hard to get the poison part off the stem making it expansive,it is usually contained in a orb because it can poison people by being touched

GOLD MUSHROOM

The golden mushroom is a modified super mushroom covered in gold and it was a high standard ingredient used in the fanciest and most expensive of dishes, it used to be sold at 600 coins but do to the fairly recent midas finger crash it is now sold for 100 gold because of the over abundance of gold in the mushroom kingdom,it can be made into a golden shake wich usually us sold for 160 coins and it is delicious

INVINCIBILITY MUSHROOM

The invincibility mushroom is a super mushroom injected with super star and rainbow extract, it is fairly common sinse it's a plant meaning cultivating these items,it is used in dishes like the invincibility steak and the invincible salad,it requires moondust soil to cultivate it correctly but it can be grown in normal soil

LIFE MUSHROOM

Life mushroom is one of many items discovered by mario mario the || also known as just mario during his space expedition,the life mushroom is very similar to its earthling counterpart the super mushroom, it is very healthy and when consumed makes the user more resilient and some say it increases your lifespan but hasn't been proven yet, it is used in many dishes and has an out of this world taste, it can be grown in most soils but its preferred soil is moon soil,it is generally sold for 30 coins or 90 star bits,it unlike its earthling counterpart doesn't have any traces of bignium meaning it's not that great for increasing growth speed of plants but it does makes plant affected with life mushroom fertilizer 200% healthier than normal

METAL MUSHROOM

the metal mushroom is similar to the metal suit or metal cap like some people call it,the metal mushroom is a plant version of said suit,it is way cheaper to make than the metal cap do to the fact it can be cultivated,it requires rocky soil (generally mountains and underground) in order to cultivate it, if consumed the user will become metal solid for 2 minutes giving them the ability to break most objects and become heavy to swim in the bottom of lakes, it is generally melted in order to get metals need for the construction of many things

MINI MUSHROOM

The mini mushroom is the smallest of all mushrooms, it is known for containing concentrated amounts of minium wich causes (when in its purest form) the user to shrink down to 20% of their original size or 80% smaller than normal, when in this mini state the user gets the ability to walk on water and walk fast and other things from being small, with all minium removed it is used in various culinary dishes and gives a sweet flavor and many use it on top of cakes as edible decorations

MYSTERY MUSHROOM

The mystery mushroom is an interesting super mushroom variety wich has a interrogation mark in the front, it has an interesting effect on the user where when consumed it will give the user the power to morth/transform into any other living being as long it exists and has been observed by the user, it however does not provide any abilities of the copied creature making not that perfect for the intended infiltration purposes, it is currently being used to try and make the super hammer suit and boomerang flower

P-ACORN (POWER ACORN)

Some may be confused why the acorns are in the mushroom section? Well it looks like a mushroom and it has a soft stem like a mushroom, it's just an acorn because it grows on trees Back to the explanation, the p-acorn is a rare sub species of the super acorn wich while retaining the taste and culinary purposes it also has an special ability, while the normal super acorn gives the user abilities similar to a flying squirrel, this one also gives the flying ability similar to a tanuki leaf, of course this only last for 30 minutes but once the affect is done it will get a permanent enhancement to the ability of using a flying squirrel suit

PROPELLER MUSHROOM

The propeller mushroom is a mushroom with a propeller on top, it has a super mushroom flavor but the propeller tastes like a tanuki leaf, when in its purest form it makes an propeller helmet like shell to grow on the user's head wich works giving the user the ability to fly upwards,it can only be cultivated in floating islands in high altitudes, instead of growing on top of the place where it was planted the proppeller grows under the floating islands where they're planted making harvest harder

POISON MUSHROOM

The poison mushroom is a species of mushroom known for being super deadly, it generally is naturally found in toxic forests,it makes anyone who eats it gets instantly sick and 20% of people who injest the poison dies, it can be non deadly as many professional cooks use poison mushroom for recipes and people say its delicious but we dont recommend to eat it without professional skills

ROCK MUSHROOM

The rock mushroom is one of many items discovered in the second intergalactic mission by mushroom kingdom hero mario,it has a rock like stooltop and it does taste like stone, but the stem tastes great and is used in many recipes like miners soup and rolling Crocs, in its purest form it gives the user an rocky exoskeleton making them super resliant and strong, it like the metal mushroom requires rocky soil and is generally grown on caves

REVERSE MUSHROOM

The reverse mushroom is…..interesting, in its purest form gives the user the "ability" to walk backwards perfectly, but only backwards, its grown in islands and it grows underground like carrots, it was found in opposite islands where everything is backwards upside down and reverse, it tastes okey

SUBCON MUSHROOM (DREAM SHROOM)

An interesting phenomenon is the "materialized dream" phenomenon where small things from dreams appear on the real world, the subcon mushroom is a super mushroom like thing known for being the most common materialized mushroom, unlike the super mushroom it doesn't have seeds meaning real life cultivation impossible, it has a dreamy flavour and is very expensive going for 200 up to 750 coins,

SPRING MUSHROOM

The spring mushroom is another mushroom found in the second mushroom kingdom intergalactic exploration, in its purest form it turns whoever consumes it have their body turned into a spring like shape resulting in high jumps and very bouncy behavior, according to mario mario || it is very hard and anoying to control, it requires minerals hard to find in our planet making it "rare" but it is possible to find it in most metal rich planets as the mineral that it needs seems to be a metal/ore

SUPER MEGA MUSHROOM

The super mega mushroom is a modified version of the mega mushroom wich doubles the original effects and taste,as a fertilizer it nows increases the size of crops by 600% and increases growth speed by 400%, on living beings increases size by 10 times the original, when the bignium is removed for non power consumption the taste is recorded to be better in every way than the mega mushroom, unfortunately it takes away more to cultivate it, it can take 10 years with no help and even with the best fertilizer it takes around 2 years to get ready, it needs loads of supplies just for 1 unit

SUPER MINI MUSHROOM

The super mini mushroom is the polar opposite to the super mega mushroom, the mini mushroom not only shrinks the size of the user by 85% it also gives the user the ability to grab things over 100 times heavier than their normal size, it last for around 20 minutes,one seed can grow 10 mini mushrooms, not super mini just mini,it requires little to no care to become ready for harvest

SUPER ACORN

The super acorn is an acorn like mushroom, when in its purest form bestows the user flying squirrel abilities, it tastes like acorns and nuts, many products like cereal and cereal bars use the super acorn for flavor and health value and the stem is used in shakes, it's the only mushroom that grows in trees, super acorn is very nutritious

VACUUM MUSHROOM

The vacuum mushroom is an genetically modified mushroom invented by fawful in 2009 , there was only one made wich was gifted by fawful to bowser wich resulted in not much info about this highly magical item, it gives the user in its purest form the ability to succ things like a vacuum cleaner like famous fictional character known as kirby, it also has traces of mini mushroom as everything succed will shrink several magnitudes, so small in fact they could fight viruses face to face

WEIRD MUSHROOM

The weird mushroom is a variation of the super mushroom, it is unlike any other mushroom as it has a slim and tall stem and a short stooltop, I'm its purest form makes the user realy skinny and tall, giving them the ability to jump super high, their voice also gets realy weird, the affect lasts a whole day, when without the weirdom the stem is generally fried and the stooltop is roasted and many say it's great,it generally appears as a result of super mushroom being planted in soil without the minerals necessary

ZOMBIE MUSHROOM

Zombie mushroom is a interesting tipe of mushroom as it is less of an object and more of an enemy,it is a result of a boo/ghost possessing a super mushroom and then unpossesing resulting in the mushroom getting haunted and it becomes "alive", it will try to kill any living being in its vicinity, it only is awake when its night time or is in a haunted area, it is not recommended to eat a zombie mushroom, specially if you're an toad,

Average special effect time:30 minutes

FLOWERS

FIRE FLOWER

Fire Flowers are among the most well-known of all power ups, and for good reason with their reliability in many fields and simplicity of use. Some alternative fuel sources even use the heat from these plants instead of the typical use of Celestial Energy (see sections on Power Stars and Power Moons for more information on this phenomenon) It can be turned into something similar to hot sauce for household use, and the flowers have many combat applications such as lighting fuses for demolition teams and infantry weaponry in place of flamethrowers or firearms. A form of pepper spray can also be created from the seeds. Fire Flowers are also used in cold biomes for not only lighting fires, but setting off symptoms of Hypothermia and Frostbite, and most if not all villages in the snowy realms grow a steady supply to support their daily life. In a pinch, the flowers also work as excellent lanterns.

ICE FLOWER

Ice Flowers are generally considered the polar opposite of Fire Flowers. They are generally used in culinary fields, helping run such machines as ice cream makers, freezers, and ice machines. A freezing spray made out of Ice Flower extract can be used to freeze small things quickly, and more potent versions of this spray are used often in skating rinks and ski resorts. The seeds and petals can be turned into a soup generally used in hot biomes like deserts or volcanic regions to cool off. Many desert villages have a stock of these flowers for that very reason, as well as to set off heatstroke. Unfortunately, unlike Fire Flowers (which provide the natural heat they need to grow and flourish no matter the location), it is often difficult to grow Ice Flowers in warmer environments due to the lack of water supply, which they usually can gain by filtering it from snow through their roots (though beaches have been found to support the cultivation of Ice Flowers quite effectively, most likely due to the wetness of the sand).

“GLACIAL” FLOWER (ICE FLOWER--ALIEN)

During the first intergalactic adventure of well-known Mushroom Kingdom hero “Super” Mario, he reported the discovery of a variety of Ice Flower very different from the well-known native species. This “alien” Ice Flower has a much lower recorded natural temperature and a similarly more potent effect than its more common brethren. Nicknamed a “Glacial” Flower by many researchers, it is so powerful that it doesn’t simply bestow power over ice to those who wield it--but instead, it transforms them into pure, living ice, cold enough to freeze the very ground where they walk. This ice is so cold it can not only freeze water at a mere touch, but even lava up to nigh the most extreme temperatures. The Glacial Flower is much harder to cultivate than the standard variety of Ice Flower, as while it is able to grow in much higher temperatures than the latter due to the extent of its natural radiation of cold, it requires minerals that have up to now only been observed in the depths of space. The few that are able to be grown in carefully monitored and supported artificial environments mainly find use in preventing damage from the eruption of major active volcanoes.

CLOUD FLOWERS

Originally discovered in Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Cloud Flowers have become a staple in cloud-based locales. Before the discovery of this flower, cloud cities were mainly constructed with the aid of concentrated Pownon gas. However, in this capacity the gas was far too difficult to steadily maintain, leading to great damage as parts of the architecture and even foundation would often collapse. Since the discovery of the Cloud Flower, however, it was quickly found easy to cultivate, requiring merely, well...clouds. The clouds generated through use of these flowers are surprisingly strong, and this soon lead to much more stable cloud-based infrastructure being possible.Cloud Flowers are also often used in certain meals, especially those on the sweeter side, helping to yield a “heavenly” flavor.

COPY FLOWERS

The copy flower is……..interesting it was "discovered" by local hero mario and his brother luigi while exploring the temporal shenanigans the time machine created by e-gadd made, when the mario bros (present) where exploring the past where they stopped the alien invasion that happened many years ago, at the time the copy flower was already known but it was in risk of extinction wich it did go extinct but during the adventure a sample of the flower was brought back and the species was brought back, but let's get back to effects, the copy flower acts similar to the double cherry but this one is way WAY WAY more powerful making up to 92 copies wich is a lot compared to the 1 of the double cherry, it is used as fertilizer increasing crops by 50 to 92 times the normal crop, of course it's still fairly rare and uses resources wich as of yet is rare to come by

GOLD FLOWER

The gold flower is a now eligal plant originated in the mushroom kingdom, you might have heard that gold has become way less expensive recently, you see this flower gives the user to turn everything they touch into gold and lasts 1 minute, and while this flower was ilegalized and contained in less than a month after discovery the damage was already done and now there are loads of gold in the kingdom, wich while means average workers will be able to taste gold like items it's not that good for the economy, all gold flower specimens and seeds are in a high defense storage in one of the many metropolis in the mushroom kingdom

MIX FLOWER

The mix flower is a variant of the fire flower wich allows the user to charge the fireballs to make it more powerful but if more people with mix flowers come along they can charge together to make it even more powerful doe to that fact many military organizations have squads of mix flower user to work as a mortar tank of sorts, these groups are generally 4 to 15 people, it can be used in generators but arent as effective than the usual star but it is used in polar lands for heating an entire city

POWER FLOWER (POWNON FLOWER)

The Power Flower is a unique flower, with no discernible source known or recorded. Some say they are found in the sky, other say they are artificially made, some even point to space as the answer. Whatever the source may be, Power Flowers are one of the only known natural sources of Pownon, releasing it as other plants do Oxygen. It is unknown how this happens. These high levels of Pownon can lead to a multitude of effects, and study of these effects and why this is possible is still underway.

SLOW FLOWER

The slow flower is a temporal plant caused by time machines wich when in the purest form makes a 50 ft radio have time slowed down by a lot, 10 minutes outside the radios is equal to 1 minute in the affected area, it isn't recommended to consume 10 at once,it is very rare as not many time machines exists and use a lot of energy but flipside has lots of slow flowers but its not known where they came from

SPEED FLOWER

Speed flower is a highly energetic flower wich when consumed mildly increase the user's speed, it is discovered in thr in between plane, it is used in sports for the interesting events made involving the speed, the seeds look like clock hands, many energy drinks use the flower for taste and energy, it is also used in infantry as the extra speed makes the troops be able to reach the enemy lines way faster

SUPER BALL FLOWER

The superball flower is an species of flower native to sarasaland,it in its purest form gives the user the ability to create very boucy metal balls, it is used to make metal for machines and many superball refinery are scattered throughout sarasaland wich is the number 1 in metal exportation to other kingdoms, users say that it tastes like coins, it like other metal/rock based species its usually grown underground

read part one here! there’s more dialogue in this one, oops. plus, this isn’t based on any song but there’s undertones of ‘love song’ by nct 127 in it, enjoy!

[jaemin, 6:38pm] the next time you meet jaemin is when the rain’s pouring heavily, creating music on the metal roof of the convenience store. it was just your luck to reach the store before the rain intensified, but now you were probably stuck for a good hour until the downfall subsided. he was holding a blue packet of chocolate hearts, talking to a friend who was situated on a bike.

“jaemin?”

he spun around at your familiar voice, arms going up in excitement at seeing you.

“is this the girl you were talking about jaem?” the other male giggled, putting on his helmet before starting up his motorcycle. you looked at him funny, wondering what things jaemin could’ve told him.

“sorry for laughing, but jaemin has only told me good stuff about you, don’t worry about it. i’m jeno,” you bowed slightly, smacking jaemin lightly after his friend had left the area. there was a subtle rev from the biker before hearing him speed off in the rain. you stole a chocolate heart from him as punishment, waiting for the familiar flavour to kick in but grimaced instead at the bizarre taste. snatching the packet from him, you noticed that it was a limited edition of blueberry chocolate hearts, shooting the male a disgusted look.

“what? blueberry chocolate hearts aren’t that bad.”

hearing the pitter-patter of the rain calmed your nervous heart, as you wondered what jaemin could’ve said for his friend to react like that.

“who was that?”

“he’s in my class, he majors in geology like me.” jaemin looked over to you, waiting for a reaction from you. was being interested in the earth weird?

“geology? it never struck me that you would be a man interested in rocks.”

“yeah, this man is also rock… hard,” you only sighed at that, leaving the male to laugh at his dick joke while you enter the store for the original flavour of chocolate hearts. you hoped he didn’t actually… have a boner, or that would be disturbing as hell.

“you kinda set yourself up for that one, (y/n), plus you make it seem like it’s a boring thing to be interested in, we also learn about volcanoes and earthquakes and anything that relates to the earth and its processes.”

you put your hands up in surrender, “i’m not saying it’s not intriguing—i did do geography in high school, i was pretty good at it, but i think i forgot most of it.”

jaemin smiled, bringing his arms into a big circle, mouth wide open even though there was a half-chewed blueberry heart in his mouth. “but that’s just the surface of it, we learn a lot more than high school geography.” you glanced at the boy, noticing the unique way in how his eyes gleam from the refrigerator light and how his gestures travel everywhere to get his point across.

“yeah? like what?" giving up your usual drink, you settled for the coffee service at the counter instead, knowing you'd rather enjoy a hot beverage rather than an iced coffee in this weather.

“normally, the geology of an area changes over time—rock units are deposited and inserted, deformational processes alter their shapes and locations. they are first emplaced either by deposition onto the surface or intrusion into the overlying rock. the former process can occur when sediments settle onto the surface of the earth and later lithify into sedimentary rock, or when as volcanic material blanket the surface,” you cut him to show off your high school level geography, poking fun at the male while your smile got through to his heart, “like, ash and lava.”

jaemin could only laugh in reply, waiting for you after the cashier as you waited for your cash to be returned and for your coffee to be made.

“igneous intrusions such as batholiths, laccoliths, dykes and sills, push upwards into the overlying rock, and crystallise as they intrude.” he ended off his small speech with a bow, passing him to receive the scorching hot beverage before going outside to sit with the rain.

“did you read that off wiki before this?”

“in a way, i… guess. i did have a test a few days ago, i have another tomorrow.” jaemin giggled, frowning right after at the last blueberry heart in the packet. he offered it to you, anyway, but turned it down due to its questionable flavour.

before you could insult him for his weird tastebuds, you heard a crash from inside the store, causing you to check out the sudden sound. umbrellas were scattered over the floor, having fallen over from its box when it was unstable. you and jaemin helped the cashier on duty to place the umbrellas back in place while you debated on whether you should purchase one to head back.

just do it.

“hey, sorry, can i purchase one of the umbrellas?”

the cashier only smiles at your question. “rushing to head back home, huh?”

you didn’t know how to answer her question, so you stayed quiet as she checked your item out. removing the plastic from the new umbrella, you tugged on jaemin’s arm to drag him under your shelter with him. at this, he shook his head.

“what?”

“i hate the rain,” he muttered, hand visibly tightening around the blue wrapper of blueberry chocolate hearts.

“i’m not gonna leave your sorry ass waiting here for the rain to ease off, you said you had a test tomorrow, right?” you tried your hand at tugging on his arm again, but he remained glued to his spot.

“iiiiiii just remembered it’s just a small quiz, doesn’t need much studying,” jaemin grinned, looking into your eyes for some kind of message, but all he got was your unimpressed face staring back at him before sighing, “okay fine. whatever. let’s go.”

it doesn’t take much for your heart to spike up in speed, his arm naturally going around your person as he takes over holding the umbrella. you can see how he pouted while leading the way back to the university dorms, noting how he kept looking down at his shoes. new shoes? was that why he didn’t want to go into the rain? jaemin’s enigmatic behaviour remains unanswered as you feel his breath on your hair, occasionally turning back to look at incoming traffic.

“you’re really warm, did catch a fever?” you asked cautiously, despite loving the warmth the boy gave out. it felt familiar and comforting, like a knitted sweater or blanket that resided in your dorms. said boy could only show you a small smile, eyes crinkled at its tips softly as he went on to cross the road that led to your destination. you definitely saw your own reflection in his eyes with how close you were standing, with how big and expressive they were.

“…dent pass?”

huh?

“do you have your student pass?” jaemin repeats, using his head to gesture to his occupied hands.

“oh no,” you said, not intending the other to hear your wave of panic.

“what is it?”

“my friend tapped me out, do you have yours?” your heart was at the verge of dropping, awaiting his answer that would decide your fate.

“so did mine,” jaemin could only purse his lips, halting in front of the dormitory gates in the pouring rain, “i am really hating this right now.”

“you don’t think i’m uncomfortable?” you scoff, looking up at him with an annoyed expression. his arm went from around your shoulders to your waist almost immediately, hands hovering right after he’d seen your surprised expression.

“sorry, about that.” he trailed off, looking anywhere but in your line of sight as you struggled to hide your smile. you shake your head, stepping closer to the geology major in a leap of confidence. both of you wish you could’ve stayed like that a little longer, though, the atmosphere was ruined with a ding! of your phone. it was a picture of the two of you smiling down at each other, prompting you to eye your roommate from where you were.

curse the room that was facing the dormitory gate; plus, she was being unnecessarily annoying today.

with a whoosh!, you sent out a text for her to pick you up before turning your attention back to the boy in front of you.

“hi.” you mumble, not knowing whether to smile when he was looking at you like that, where the strands of his hair were a little damp and his cheeks reached his eyes due to his wide smile.

“hey, (y/n).” jaemin whispers back, arm tightening around your body, hoping your friend never comes and that you could remain here forever.

funny, you were hoping that would be the case too.

❆ SEATTLE (ep3): dinner @ Noi

Our 1st meal in Seattle~

Noi Thai Cuisine, located at: 1303 1st Ave.

The interior was VERY dark! We quickly realized that Noi was more like a pub/lounge type of place. They are family-friendly; however, the atmosphere screamed date night or catch-up sesh with friends type of place.

Got a table by the window, facing The Harbour Steps.

Loved these lights!

Let’s take a look at the dinner menu (we happened to just miss the happy hr menu).

oooooOOh interesting.

I know the menu text is too small for you to actually read, but I still included them here so you can get a sense of how ‘fancy’ they are haha the pictures are all coloured & the menu paper is nice & glossy.

They have a very good description of what each dish is underneath the name of the dish.

Honestly, the menu was more like a food magazine than a menu :P

Look at that curry photo

Menu continues. ..

If you can’t tell by now, they are a fusion Thai restaurant.

*me thinking: “where is the pad thai?” *

Ahh. .. finally entering the noodle/rice section.

This is probably the section that was most familiar to me.

Noi also offers a number of vegetarian dishes.

We ordered our food & it came out pretty fast, despite the place being very busy!

The appetizer sampler~ Not gonna lie, DL & I were both intrigued by the ‘egg shell presentation’ lol but we also wanted to try other appetizers so the sampler was the best option. Let’s take a look at each part individually.

A. Crab wontons. Super crispy & filled with *real* crab meat (& cream cheese). The filling was creamy but had thin bits of crab meat.

B. Thai-style shrimp cakes. I’m a loyal fish cake girl so this shrimp cake . .. I was quite indifferent abut it. I was imagining something like the shrimp-stuffed bell peppers or eggplants that you could get at dimsum, where the shrimp is bouncy. But this fell short of that- there was a mushiness to it bcos the shrimp paste was made into some sort of paste/batter, rather than a primarily-shrimp paste. Does that make sense? Anyway, I though it’d be pure shrimp but it wasn’t, & I felt a little cheated.

C. Crispy taro rolls. This was better than expected. I thought it only had taro inside but it had some shrimp or prawn mixed in it as well!

D. Cock-A-Doodle-Doo. (Negligible) hint of spiciness from the tom yum bisque with deep fried prawn (bits) & tobiko. Sooooo sooo creamy mixed with crunchy & ‘popping’ textures. This was very satisfying from a textural perspective.

Of the 4 items, my order of preference: C > D > A > B.

Honestly opinion about the 4 items in general. .. I didn’t really get much “Thai” flavour in any of the 4 items :S I feel like these things could be ordered from any western restaurant, especially with more & more western pub/lounge places offering Asian-inspired appetizers/flavours. Wonderful presentation but altogether, not bad, but not great. I would recommend getting the Cock-A-Doodle-Doo on its own if you were to come here. It is different & I think it’s worth a try!

Original Tom Kah Gai. “This soup feature chicken, straw mushroom caps, lemongrass, spring onions, cilantro and enticing taste of galangal roots infused with coconut milk.” (copied directly from website)

From our personal Thai cuisine experiences, we have not seen/heard of this milky soup, so we decided to try it. The appearance looked so creamy & harmless, but this soup actually had quite a sharp flavour to it! Nevermind the ingredients used (nothing spectacular about it) but the soup was like WOWWW! Very citrus-y & strong lemongrass flavour will hit you first, & then it fades, & that’s when the subtle coconut flavour comes out. I really liked it!

Clay Pot Crab with Glass Noodles. (they say glass noodles but it’s the thin clear vermicelli noodles that you often find in spring rolls, aka cellophane noodles, not the stuff you use for japchae)

“A century old Thai favorite dish includes a combination of spiced crab, bacon, ginger, cilantro, white pepper on top of stir-fried glass noodle with our delicious homemade sauce.” The sauce was too zesty-spicy for me, so I actually didn’t eat the noodles with the sauce, but others might like it. I wasn’t a big fan of this dish; flavour was good (but did not scream “Thai” to me.. . honestly, it was just like a stir-fry that one could make at home using soy sauce + fish sauce), & abundant crab meat (more than I had expected!)... the biggest concern was the noodles =/ it was stiff! You know when you cook noodles sometimes & then it cools .. . & then it becomes dry & takes the form of the bowl? Well, this was like that. The noodles weren’t loose; it was stuck together. You literally needed to CUT a section out bcos using fork/chopsticks to take some was nearly impossible (you’d be taking out all the noodles with you). I was disappointed by this.. .

So yeah. .. ummm .. lol not the best 1st meal. However, the soup was very delicious & enjoyable!

Fun fact: they are a popular stopover spot for Thai Airways crew!

Yamada Ryosuke x Nakajima Yuto: The two who melted together (anan part 1)

anan 2184 (2020.01.22)

(There are more photos and a crosstalk. I'll post part 2 when I'm done translating.)

Hey!Say!JUMP’s Yamada Ryosuke san and Nakajima Yuto san graced our magazine [on this issue]. It is the first time we had this pair on the cover of anan. As sweet as chocolate, we captured the moment when they melted together for the cover gravure. It will bring out your memories of chocolate.

Yamada Ryosuke

When he heard that this issue’s theme is chocolate, “I love it” Yamada Ryosuke san replied immediately. “There’s one type I especially like. It is a penguin shaped milk chocolate that has a bitter caramel centre; it’s a luxury item that costs 300 yen each. Since the filming of “Moeyo Ken” was really tough, when I returned to the hotel after filming, I would treat myself to 1 piece to encourage myself. On the days where I had really difficult sword fighting scenes, I ate 2 (laughs). I like it that much. If I have to give a reverse Valentine gift to hardworking women? I will use good whiskey to make a highball and spend the time together with her. Since that is someone I like, I can send my thoughts straightly. I am not very good with the type that plays games. I don’t understand people who will not confess their love because they are afraid of being turned down, when they cannot suppress their feelings in the first place.

I played Yoshimori Ryoichi in “Kiokuya: Anata wo Wasurenai”. There were scenes where I cannot hold back my feelings. “The script for that scene said ‘1 tear roll down the face’, but I cried too much. Although it was NG at one point, in the end, that was the cut that was used. Ryoichi is a blend of Yuto and I. [Ryoich’s] ridiculously earnest part is Yuto’s and the taking action once he decided part is mine. His reaction to each thing that happened in front of him was interesting to play. I don’t need Kiokuya, who can erase people’s memories. There are no memories I want to erase; it’s just too painful if I lost [the memory] of the time I spent with the group. It spanned more than half of my life and there is nothing more fun than this.”

Nakajima Yuto

In the drama “Boku ha Doko Kara”, Takeuchi Kaoru, who has the ability to copy other people’s thoughts when he writes their texts, is played by Nakajima Yuto san. “Kaoru wanted to be a novelist, but thanks to his ability, he could not write his own work. ‘What am I’ was something that confused him. In order to show that side, I asked myself the same question; didn’t I become someone who wanted to find himself? I was grateful that I could make my own choices and enjoyed my own growth process. Although having the special power was troublesome to Kaoru, I would like to have a special power. Teleportation, shapeshifting, etc will be cool. I think I will transform into someone nobody knows and walk around the city a lot.

I often received Valentine’s chocolates from the staff on the film set. “They could be expensive and the person might have lined up at the shop for a long time to get them. When I think about that, I am really thankful for [the gift]. If I were to give someone [chocolates], I will give them classy and delicate chocolates. The type where there are many flavours and are lined up one-by-one [in the box]. That way, you can eat without getting bored, and that’s how I like it too. You can hold that and take a plunge to confess in a place where there are lots of people. Since you can use the power from the people around you who would say, “do your best!” (laughs) Right now, is there someone who would buy nice chocolates for me? I think it is important to set rewards. Especially when I am so busy with work and I start to lose track of myself, spoiling me a little will bring a lot of help to me. I think giving chocolates to someone who worked really hard as a reward is great.”

The Yama who wants to be spoiled belongs to me exclusively (smiles). - Yuto

The time the two of us spent together is important. - Yama
