Ego Holiday Headcanons

Haven’t decided if I’ll make more after this, but here’s some festive headcanons for the Septic boys! (tagging as Yuletube for my submission for the past two missed days, hope that’s alright!)

Henrik Von Schneeplestein

-The host of the Septic Ego Holiday Celebration (est. 2017)

-STRESSED

-If he wasn’t stressed enough by being a doctor (and parent lmao), HE IS NOW

-Getting all the egos together for the holidays and making sure they DON’T kill each other?? Someone give this man an award

-Everyone keeping their limbs would be his only Christmas wish

-He does not get said Christmas wish (see: Robbie)

-Switches up his black coffee for coffee with peppermint creamer

-Chase eventually hooks him on peppermint tea instead, he knows the Doc needs sleep

-Can be found humming along to the Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy as he cooks holiday dinner

-Definitely has a “kiss the cook” apron

-Chase crossed out the “the” on it with “zhe” in sharpie

-Day 5, Schneep still hasn’t noticed

-Loves it, but still wears his doctor coat on top of it

-Gets very cold easily, so the fire is always burning

-Has a nutcracker collection

-It’s getting out of hand

Chase Brody

-Holidays are,,, hard for him

-Still sends his kids cards and presents, never actually knowing if they get them or not

-They do, I promise

-But once he gets there, he’s glad he did

-IMMEDIATELY tackled in a hug from Jackie

-”YOU’RE HERE!! Couldn’t start without you, dude!”

-Everyone else smiles and gives the appropriate hug

-(Anti does not, but no eye roll this time at least)

-Absolutely loves warm apple cider and has a good recipe to make his own

-Favorite Christmas movie is Elf, no I do not take criticism

-Has a soft spot for Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmas though because of his kids

-Holiday puns, you CANNOT get this man to shut up with the puns

-Once it snows, this boy is sledding down every hill in SIGHT

-Teaches Robbie how to catch snowflakes on his tongue

-He totally cries and does not take it off the rest of the season

Jackieboy Man

-Christmas is his favorite holiday

-Good luck getting him to sit still around this time

-Nearly giving Henrik a heart attack everytime he moves, but make it Festive™

-”Guys it’s snowing!!” “JACKIE GET ZHE FAHK OFF ZHE RAILING”

-Even if his best includes falling off a roof

Marvin the Magnificent

-Made everyone sweaters, even Anti

-Uses his magic to sew like three at once

-December 1st, 12:00am is when the Christmas music starts

-Mariah Carey impressions that slowly get higher as the month goes on

-Performs a “Let It Go” rendition that could rival Idina’s during christmas karaoke night

-The decorating master, with JJ as his apprentice

-Favorite part is designing for the lights outside

-Learned a spell to make it look like it’s snowing inside

-Forgot to learn the spell to make it stop snowing inside

-Ended up just sticking with those paper snowflakes dangling on the ceiling

-Asks Jackie for help with the lights on the roof, not because he can’t easily do it himself, he just knows that Jackie likes to help and this is the one thing he knows he can’t break

-Did not expect Jackie to break himself by falling off the roof instead

-Ends up finishing the lights with his magic anyway (after he untangles his boyfriend from the lights, that is)

-Can and will destroy Jackie during snowball fights just because he can

Jameson Jackson

-THIS BOY oh this boy

-Now everyone has oranges in their stockings

-They still don’t know what it means

Antisepticeye

-Die Hard is a Christmas movie, dammit!

- “Grinch Bitch” is what his sweater from Marvin says

-Secretly likes it, but fuck off

-Wears it to sleep every night in Winter

-Loves the white elephant gift game

-Ends up getting a present and it’s a turtle

-His name is knives

-KING OF SNOWBALL FIGHTS

-Fills his snowballs with fake blood so they explode on people

- (at least we hope its fake)

-If it doesn’t snow enough, he is the bitch who throws water balloons instead

-Henrik still has work leading up to Christmas, so Anti listens to him rant when he gets home

-Christmas patients are fuckin crazy and he loves it

-One time fell asleep and woke up with a red nose and antlers

-Chase was never safe after that

-Kept the antlers though, they jingle

-Saved them all from Chase’s puns that day

- “Where’s Anti?” *distant, staticky jingling* “Ah there he is”

Robbie the Zombie

-LIGHTS...pretty lights…

-He loves the lights, and will try to eat them if you’re not careful

-Says they’re static candy

-Doesn’t get cold because he can’t feel it, so he often wanders around in the snow

-One time he came home without his left foot and Schneep nearly had a heart attack

-Turns out it froze in the snow and snapped off his leg

-The Great Foot Search Party of 2020

-Please don’t forget to bundle this boy up before going out

-Anti has knitted him a hat and scarf for just this reason

-Henrik was the Proudest Dad that day

-Totally gets to put the star on the Christmas tree every year

-Marvin levitates him high enough

-Favorite holiday movie is The Polar Express

-One time JJ came out with his signature hot cocoa during the movie scene and Robbie was THRILLED

-Talking almost knocked him over thrilled

-Tries to sing along to holiday music, the lyrics don’t work out much

-Really good at keeping a beat though

-Marvin made him a sweater with bells on it

-Adores the bells, flaps the too long sleeves to make them jingle

Shawn Flynn

-Likes Christmas, but like lowkey

-He’s a toymaker!!! He makes adorable toys for all the egos as their presents from him!!

-Didn’t really have a family to go back to in his days at Joey Drew Studios, so he was used to spending Christmas alone, usually working

-NOT ANYMORE!

-Now he has Too Much Family (but in the good way)

-Absolutely gets nicknamed Scrooge at first, probably because he really likes A Christmas Carol and he’s a grump

-Often can be found being pulled off to dance by the gramophone with JJ

-He’s got two left feet, but JJ doesn’t really care

-If anyone still believes in Santa, even just a little bit, it’s because of him

-Has a giant red sack that he fills up with toys he’s made and/or the ones no one could sell back at the studios and donates them to orphanages

-Usually sticks to his old timey clothes, but when he does wear modern Christmas attire like the sweaters, he has,,,no idea how to match things

-It’s ‘cause he’s red/green colorblind

-once asked why Marvin had “yellow” hair

-JJ makes sure that his decorations have lots of blues so it’s not so much strain on his eyes

NOW I HAVE TO ASK U ABOUT THE BLASPHEMOUS BAKE SALE

OK SO

I don’t know if any of you all have heard of Brother Jed, and I really hope that you have not, but goes to universities across the US to talk about who was going to Hell (specifically gays, fornicators, non-Christians, people with piercings, people with tattoos, people with dyed hair, non-submissive women, and sometimes various non-white minorities depending on the sign). I think he even had a show on TLC, but don’t give this man any more attention.

So in my freshman year he and his wife came and I was caught flat-footed, but I noticed two things:

He drew a huge crowd of people who told him he was trash

A friend of mine, Amanda, who organized a Love-In to oppose him, which is to say she got most of the crowd to sit down right in front of Brother Jed and talk calmly together, completely ignoring him.

So I went about my business, doing college things, for several months. Now in my university I was involved in a scholarship program that had a lounge on campus and all the freshmen lived together on one floor of the dormitories. For room inspection days I would make chocolate chip cookies to cheer everyone up and bribe my RA to ignore some things in our room and after I moved out I continued to make cookies for the lounge or the occasional funding bake sale. As good as the baked goods were, though, they never generated much money.

I don��t remember when the idea came to me or who suggested it, but one day I realized that selling baked goods to a crowd would probably increase our revenue, and no one gathered a bigger crowd that Brother Jed.

At that moment the gears in my head started turning. With the help of my friends Adam and Amanda, we got the permits to have a bake sale and decided to really stick it to the man by making all the food Hell themed. All the proceeds would go to a non-discriminatory charity, and we would make sure he knew it. Adam was onboard for the lolz, but Amanda got an absolutely possessed gleam in her eye; she was in this for blood.

In planning for our long-simmering revenge, Adam and I checked Brother Jed’s schedule to find out exactly when he would be coming to our university, but there ran into a slight snag; our state has a system of universities all run under the same name just in different cities. Jed had only listed the generic name of the university and 3 days in which he would be touring the state. Since we couldn’t tell which day he would be there, and baked goods must be fresh, Adam and I both realized a horrible truth:

We would have to ask Brother Jed.

We flipped a coin and Adam lost, so he bit the bullet and used the contact information on the site to email him for clarification. We were both prepared to stew on this for days, but happily Brother Jed’s wife, Sister Cindy, responded in 5 minutes to clarify the exact days she and her husband would be there. She followed up a minute later asking if we were eager to ‘share the word of God,’ but neither Adam nor I had the heart to tell her our true purpose.

Months passed, and finally the long-awaited day came. I burned a sick day and skipped all my classes to man the table for the entire time. A little after noon, they showed up in full force. Last time he was there, it was only Jed and his wife. This time they had a whole troupe; a ‘formerly gay’ boyscout, an unrelated preacher, Jed’s three daughters, Sister Cindy, and the man himself, all under the protection of campus security.

I had been at the table since 7:30 that morning, and awake since 6:30 making my cookies, which I wanted to be very fresh to be more enticing. That whole morning had been slow, but immediately after the band of bigots arrived things began to pick up. And BOY did they pick up. Soon there was a crowd of 50 people, all gathered to protest Jed’s presence on campus.

And getting mad is hungry work.

The hot, fresh, Hell themed baked goods were flying off the cheap plastic table; Forbidden Fruit apple-oat bars went first, followed swiftly by the bak-LAVA. After people realized we were there to oppose Jed (thanks in no small part to me yelling like a Carnie for four hours), things really picked up. Even people who were just passing through picked up a snack just because they knew we were there to oppose Jed.

It was late October, so the sun set early and the band of bigots were wrapping up for the day. The crowd had dwindled to about 20, and at the table it was just me, Amanda, Adam, and our last cookie. We were debating what to do with it, and I suggested maybe we should use it to thank Jed in a final twist of the knife. Amanda’s response was immediate, energetic, and slightly terrifying:

“That’s an excellent idea, Zach. Go, give it to him yourself.”

So I picked up that last cookie, made my way through the crowd, and asked for quiet. The protesters that I had fed happily obliged. I took that moment to inform Brother Jed that his hideous presence had resulted in good; he had raised $600 for charity, and as a thank you we were going to give him the last cookie.

I know it sounds fake, but the crowd actually cheered as I offered that last cookie to Brother Jed. Sister Cindy deigned to relieve me of it, but not before shooting me the most soulless look of utter hatred that I have ever encountered. It’s not hyperbolic, but whenever I think of true evil, even today, I remember her eyes.

In any case, thereafter we all packed up and went home. After my voice recovered, Adam, Amanda, and I began to eagerly plan our attack for the next year; Adam wanted broader participation and set a goal of $1500 to raise; Amanda suggested large signage to clarify our stance and save my voice. I said we ought to donate our proceeds to a local LGBT+ youth homeless shelter. All this was in motion when I checked Brother Jed’s schedule to plan out the time.

Imagine my surprise to find that not only was our university omitted from the schedule, but our entire STATE was being passed over. While nothing is for sure, I like to think that it was our Blasphemous Bakesale that scared him off. It was the only thing that had changed in his most recent visit.

And that’s how I used fresh baked goods to banish a hate-monger from my university. I have since graduated, but it has been close to four years since I pulled this stunt and he still has not come back.

TLDR: I decided to use a hateful preacher’s presence on campus and the crowds he drew to feed a “Blasphemous Bake Sale.” It was super effective, we raised $600 dollars for charity, and the preacher never came back.

Hey! I noticed your masterlist is a bit empty, can i fix that? Haha. Maybe you could write some headcanons with Saeran (and if you do more characters), Jaehee and Jumin having a cooking date with mc? Like maybe cookies, or browniesor cake! Idk haha. Sorry for the long ask. ☺️

Hey 👋 Haha yeah my master list isn’t doing so well right now lol. I love your ask, it’s so cute, and it’s not long at all! I didn’t see this until right now so forgive me if this is late lol!

Cooking Date with Saeran/Jumin/Jaehee 🥘

Saeran (Normal Ending)🌹

Staying indoors all day wasn’t fun in the slightest. Fortunately for you and Saeran, the coronavirus hadn’t reached the island you inhabited yet

Given that didn’t mean you guys were entirely safe, so you two had to follow the safety measures just like the rest of the RFA had to do back in South Korea

That meant you had to forget about your vacation to Greece you had planned for to go explore the European country and discover it’s beauty

You two definitely weren’t happy about that as you both were incredibly excited about the trip, the cancellation of the trip caused your moods to tank this week

As if you two weren’t already down in the dumps enough, you woke up to loud rain drops banging on your window

When seeing the combination of strong rain and high winds, a sigh escaped your lips

Walking around the island and admiring the gorgeous nature combined with seas that surrounded it was the only thing bringing you two comfort in these rough times

But because of how messy the weather was today, you couldn’t even do that

Feeling upset, you accepted defeat from Mother Nature and laid back down in bed, cuddled up to Saeran

After resting another few hours, the weather had only gotten worse, contrary to what you’d hope it’d be

You could see the look of disappointment that came across Saerans face as he looked outside the window

Nature was not just a pretty sight to Saeran, but a much stronger comforting sight to him, so you understood completely how this made him feel

The entirety of your early afternoon contained of just you and Saeran laying down focused on your phones

Nearing dinner hours you got a sudden yet welcoming motivation to get up and make something out of this horrible day after seeing lots of inspiration online

After a lot of thought you came to the conclusion that a cooking date sounds like something you two could use right now

You surfed the web until you came across the perfect recipe, Moussaka for dinner and Loukoumades for dessert

Two Greek dishes served frequently around Greece, maybe trying your hand at making these dishes could lighten your moods

This sounds like a great idea not only because it’s delicious food, but also because it could give you and Saeran a feel of Greece far away from the country

With everything planned and making sure all ingredients are in stock, you approach Saeran with your plan

He isn’t too enthusiastic when hearing your idea but with the puppy face you’re giving him, he found it hard to deny your offer

So he eventually agreed and you two were off to work

You turned on some calming music while you and Saeran began cutting up the vegetables needed for the Moussaka together

As time went on, you noticed you began getting happier as you two were cooking and making conversation

Your plan seemed to be working incredibly

After all ingredients were done and assembled correctly, you two gave it all time to cook

While it was cooking, you started talking about the future and about your dreams, you could tell his mood was lifting

You grew increasingly open with each other in discussing your wants and dreams, then a sudden but very welcomed kiss from Saeran touched your lips

It was only a little kiss, but that little kiss turned into another little kiss, and eventually it wasn’t just a little kiss anymore

You thought back to the days in Mint Eye, you could never see you and Saeran coming so far, but here you were now making out on the couch you shared

His hand laid gentle on your cheek as you two sat there enjoying every piece of each other and this amazing feeling

You both snapped back to reality once the timer rang loud through the home

Getting up disappointed because you two were interrupted, you walked over to take out the dinner with Saeran following you

Once you sat it down to cool, a giggle left Saerans mouth as his eyes laid on a trace of honey he left on your cheek

You returned his chuckle as you attempted to wipe the honey off with a towel

His hand stopped you from doing so as he turned your face towards him and wiped the trace of honey off with his thumb

“Thank you” you replied to his actions accompanied with a blush

“No need to thank me, it’s my job” he responded

You gave him a loving smile as you turned around to grab plates

You served the meal blown with a kiss on top as you two got to eating

Satisfied with the creation, you both had a loveable conversation and got a little piece of Greece in your home while missing out on your trip

After dinner dessert was served and you could’ve sworn you gained 30lbs from that delicious food

You both realized as long as you two are together, there’s no excuse to be upset about something that can always hold off until a later date

Jumin💎

The front door opening got your attention as you laid on the couch waiting for Jumin to arrive home

An hour ago he had run out to the grocery store to pick up some essentials and ingredients you two would need tonight

You both had planned cooking a meal together this afternoon and enjoying it over a candle lit table

Having a dinner date inside the home to relax and spend time together was something you definitely needed

It was perfect to make you feel even more loved and great for Jumin to lift stressful things from his mind

After an exhausting week of almost working himself to death, he brought up the idea to you

You didn’t even need to think before you agreed

Knowing Jumin, he was going all out

You swore the table cloth alone costed more than your rent for your old apartment

While he was sliding off his shoes with his arms holding many bags, you walked up to him and placed a short but sweet kiss on his lips

After you both brought the bags to the kitchen and got them unpacked, you got to work

You decided on stir-fry and lava cake

With Jumin focusing on the vegetables and chicken, you got to work on the sauce

Every time he passed you to get to the fridge, his hands wrapped around your waist for a brief minute as he placed a soft kiss on your temple

A light blush always came over your cheeks whenever he did loving actions like this, even after 3 years of marriage

You both were getting into conversations about life

About Elizabeth the 3rd, the next RFA party, plans for C&R, the current political climate, and much similar

Jumin was such an interesting man, how he could talk for hours about topics regarding the economy and fail to make you bored is beyond you

But you liked that about him, along with many other attributes of his

You always felt loved and protected in his presence, a feeling you’ve never felt throughout your childhood

As your conversation slowly shifted and you two starting getting more depth with your discussions, he expressed how much love he felt for you everyday

He never thought he could love someone this much, he can’t even imagine how much more love he’ll have in his heart when/if you two create your own family

While talking, you added the stir fry sauce to his concoction of vegetables & chicken on the stove, along with adding in noodles

You stirred the mixture carefully, making sure not to spill

An unexpected hand came on top of yours and joined you in stirring the mixture

You took those few minutes when he was directly behind you to take the situation in, to just breathe out and relax in his presence

Your stir fry was cooked perfectly as you turned off the heat and let it to cool a bit

While cooking, you both got to work on the lava cake

It was a quick & simple recipe that Jumin had never attempted to make before

He usually had his chef cook for you both so this entire experience was a special occasion to him

You both continued where u left off in your conversation

The look in his eyes as he spoke passionately, the way his lips moved along with his words, god you loved this man

You still remember the days when Jumin seemed like such a cold man to you at first

But when getting closer to him and hearing him open up to you, you realize how broken he’s been from childhood

He deserved better

Your thoughts were cut off the loud timer going off

As Jumin went to take out the cake, he told you to go get dressed

You were confused but listened, he had an outfit already laid out for you on the bed you two shared

He really was over the top somethings

After getting the gorgeous dress on, you walked back out to the kitchen to meet him

You were met with a well set table already prepared and a lit candle in the centre of you two

He took your soft hand into his and led you to your seat, pulling your chair in and out for you

He joined you seated at the table and you two became to eat

The dinner tasted great, better than you both expected

It wasn’t to his chefs level, but it was great for a non-chef

The rest of your night was spent in each other’s arms drinking a glass of wine on the couch

you two may or may not have had a shower after to clean yourselves off together and did some things 👁👄👁

Jaehee 🧁

You arrived at Jaehee’s apartment around noon

You two had planned to bake some cookies and donate them to the orphanage to give to children

Jaehee had her cooking supplies ready before you even arrived, she’s incredibly good at being prepared

You both got straight to work and had decided on chocolate chip and raisin cookies

Jaehee turned on some music to listen to in the background

She did the chocolate chip, you did raisin

A song came on from her playlist that you loved, you knew the dance to it and everything

You started dancing as you mixed the batter, singing along to the songs

That earned you a quick look of confusion from Jaehee

You stopped mixing and sat down the bowl as you stretched your hand out to Jaehee, offering her to dance with you

She stared for a minute before hesitantly agreeing after you told her to let loose a little

You started off slow, making sure she got a hang of the moves

Then you began gaining pace, building up speed

You saw a smile creep onto her face as she moved along with you

The song came to a short and after a short laugh you both got back to work

Hours passed of you making cookies before you were done, covered in a mess

You wiped your finger into the flour you had on your apron

You gave Jaehee an unexpected surprise by swiping the flour on her nose

She quickly returned your action back and you were soon in a flour war zone

After coating each other in the white powder, you two decided to call it quits for the day as you removed your apron

Looking at the cookies on the counter, you both grabbed one and cheered them together, making a toast

“To us”

I hope you enjoyed! I apologize if Jaehee’s seems rushed in any way, it’s almost 3am right now and I’m not functioning properly lol. Plus I’m not the best at writing with Jaehee. Thank you for your request!

John Laurens X M! S/o Pride headcanons

Character: John Laurens (Hamilton) x male reader!

Type: Headcanons +moodboard

Triggers: Tear gas, protests, drinking, sexual innuendo, racism, homophobia

Word count: 1,117

General S/o

If you’re dating John Laurens you gotta be okay with cuddles

He the most cuddly boi ever (Please love him)

He’s definitely the type to hug you at random moments and ask for cuddles like John you’re adorable but the pancakes are burning

I feel like John is a sucker for simple domestic things. Seeing you fall asleep in his arms? Watching you make breakfast in your boxers? He will m e l t

He’s very affectionate! Random kisses are a big part of how he shows he loves you (Please tell him if you’re not okay with it the boi will understand)

If you’re the type to drown him in compliments please warn him! He might cry

Babe you know you mean the world to me? John.exe has stopped functioning

He can’t deal with it, he blushes every time

He won’t buy you a lot of stuff but he will 100% make you stuff!

I hc John as a pretty great artist so expect a lot of drawings of you!

If you’re the type to spoil him he will internally die every single time

Hey babe I got you that book about the American revolution you wanted! I would die for you

John loves going on adventurous dates or just general fun dates. He’s the type to go skydiving with you if you let him. Or maybe just a theme park! (If you go to Disney with the boi he will beg you to go on all the roller coasters and will try to buy all the stuffed animals I don’t make the rules)

But if you prefer more tame dates that’s fine! I mean he loves coffee shops and movie nights as much as the next guy. And to share it with the most handsome man? Who could ever say no?

He might fall asleep if you’re doing a movie night though.

His southern drawl comes out when he’s sleepy so like, enjoy horny bastards

But like seriously early morning/ late is usually when things go down (usually you)

(I’m sorry I couldn’t help myself)

He’s 100% more cuddly when he’s sleeping. He will not let go! Especially if you’re warm (And if you’re the type to kick in your sleep he will still hang on)

You’ll wake up with his face nuzzled in your neck while he begs you for just 5 more minutes, please????

He is a blanket burrito kinda guy. He’s usually v cold so he uses it as an excuse to get affection. Babe, I’m freezing only kisses will warm me up

He doesn’t sleep too late, 12 am is basically his limit and if you stay awake longer he will pout until you join him.

C u d d l e h i m

And don’t try to stay up late! He will force you into bed by 1 am, he’s gotten a lot of practice with getting Alex into bed he is really good.

John is a pretty deep sleeper like you’ll have to work hard to wake him up. You can try tickling, just basic shoving, and if nothing else works play All-star very loudly. (If you can get him off you that is-)

Or you can make him breakfast!

Speaking of breakfast (Great segue) it’s the only food John really knows how to cook. He can’t make pasta but you’ll find him snacking on waffles at 8 am.

If you know how to cook then teach the boi !!! He’ll hang on to every word you say and John no you don’t have to take notes. Please don’t leave him in the kitchen alone though if he’s trying something new, not after the sprinkle incident- (*Lightning strikes dramatically in the background*)

If you don’t know how to cook its fine y’all could learn together! I mean all the google recipes didn’t turn out so well and you had to invite Laf and Herc over to teach you but still!

He does like baking though!

Well only chocolate chip cookies

Fine only cookie dough

Oh, you thought Hamilton was extreme? Well, meet John brings-up-the genocide-of-the-natives-at-a-children’s-party Laurens!

He’s going to be so busy caring about everything going on the world except himself

Please take care of him!

He goes to every protest and puts himself in front of anyone being harassed by cops It’s better me than them they get enough of that shit

Pack him googles or protective eyewear!!!

He’s gotten tear-gassed so many times-

You’ve found him crying over news report after news report multiple times

Remind him that it’s okay to unplug for a bit! He will burn himself out emotionally if you don’t.

Going to pride

John isn’t the type to dress up normally but like Does this outfit have enough rainbows babe? I wanna piss off the homophobes

Pray for the homophobes who give you shit what the hell did you just call my boyfriend????

He doesn’t care he will 100% fight them

(If you want to stop John from being charged with assault pull him into a kiss! It’s a win/win scenario the Homophobe gets even more pissed off and he gets kisses!)

Y’all visit a booth with rainbow plushies and OH MY GOD THERE’S A RAINBOW TURTLE CAN WE BUY IT PLEASE

He names the turtle after you and gets Herc to make it clothes (Exclusively turtlenecks, John likes puns okay)

After going to a parade John would like to tour a bunch of queer bars with you! He loves how lively they are and the sense of community! (Plus he won’t pass up booze, ever)

If you don’t drink/ don’t like bars that fine too! Y’all could cuddle while watching Love Simon he doesn’t mind! (He will cry though, every time)

Celebrating pride at home

I hc that John has a Tumblr he uses to educate himself and others about multiple issues but during pride month it’s all about LGBT issues!

You’ll find him in the living room reading an 80-page pdf and you’re like ??? Oh yeah I asked Alex for his resources on the Bathroom bill-he got excited’

He will try out some rainbow themed recipes! (Again he doesn’t know how to cook so please make sure he doesn’t poison himself!)

Will 100% tweet about how cute you are constantly (he does that usually he just is a lil extra gayer during pride month)

You will be using Youtube/Netflix party to binge-watch Thomas’s sanders and Sense8 I don’t make the rules

He loves you so much! Every day he wakes up with you in his arms is a great one!

Take care of him please

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thank you so much for reading this! I’ll (try) to post something every day of pride month! (Complete with a moodboard). Okay but seriously I know we’re all happy because it’s pride but black people are still being murdered. I’ve reblogged several ways you can help including ways you can help if you can’t donate on my other blog @fight-me-i-dare-you-bro.

Stay safe everyone

Why Veronica Mars Won’t Have a Season 5

My introduction to Veronica Mars came in the midst of my father’s death. I watched episodes in hospital waiting rooms before it happened, and holed up in my room afterwards. I found a lot of comfort in the strength that the characters provided. The scene of Logan at his mother’s funeral - maniac and trying to find the humor in it - is exactly what I felt at my father’s. I, like Logan, made jokes and tried shrugging it off. I was certain that this was some sort of cosmic joke, and I was on the receiving end. Veronica’s personality shaped most of who I was in high school - my dad passed away two weeks before I started. Her snark, intelligence, and resilience inspired me so much then. I found a wonderful community with fans of the show, and to this day as a semi-adult I love and adore so many people I met through the show.

When the movie was announced, I was ecstatic. I remember rushing to a bathroom stall at my high school so I could eloquently keyboard-smash about it with my friends, donating to the Kickstarter, wearing my t-shirt, going to the theater with my friend to watch it and livestreaming it the night of its release with my online friends. In a sea of horrible feelings and helplessness, Veronica Mars helped me feel empowered and supported.

That’s partly why all of this stings so badly and feels so much like a betrayal.

Logan Echolls fits into a lot of tropes I’ve grown to hate as a self-identified feminist who has zero time for bad boys. Men who “atone for their sins” to get with a leading heroine are ones I often find boring - so often they’re executed poorly and their past mistakes would be absolutely unforgivable in a real context. Chuck Bass, Damon Salvatore, Spike, et. all are characters I’m tired of seeing in fiction. Logan Echolls organized a bum fight, took out Veronica’s headlights, burned down a community pool, made a series of racist comments to Weevil, and generally had moments of being the absolute worst. But for some weird reason, I have a massive soft spot for Logan and he’s become one of my favorite fictional characters.

Maybe it’s because we’ve seen him go through much, change so much over the course of the show. Maybe it’s because the show actually held him accountable (as well as Veronica) so the redemption didn’t feel cheap or unearned. Or maybe it’s because I’m just a weak heterosexual hypnotized by Jason Dohring’s abs and my feminism only goes so far as who I think is hot. I hope it’s not the last one, but I’m sure some would argue it is! The point is -- healthy, going-to-therapy Logan feels earned after the deaths of his parents, his abusive dad killing his girlfriend, numerous beatings, and too many near death experiences to count. Logan went from being an obligatory psychotic jackass to a fairly well-adjusted boyfriend in a way that made narrative sense.

His offscreen death right after getting married to the love of his life? Not so much.

The thing that stings about Veronica Mars’ final episode is not just Logan’s death - it’s what it means for the show going forward, especially its titular character. What made Veronica lovable was not her toughness as Logan’s final voicemail details. As season 3 Logan reminds us, Veronica isn’t invincible and she isn’t always right. What made her such a compelling character was what was underneath that toughness, and the people around her that highlighted that warmth buried underneath layers of trauma. In other words, what made her a marshmallow. Burnt on the outside, but gooey on the inside, as Wallace describes her in the pilot.

When we meet Veronica in the pilot, she’s been through a litany of traumas: her best friend’s death, a breakup, sexual assault and drugging, social ostracization, her mother’s addiction and swift exit from her life, a swift drop in socioeconomic status, and routine humiliation at the hands of her peers. But in spite of all of that, she’s still the girl that cuts Wallace down from the flag because it’s the right thing to do. She’s still the girl that worries about her father, has sympathy for Logan after his mother’s death despite all of his cruelty, defends and comforts Meg Manning after she endures the same bullying Veronica did, cares (often, initially unwillingly) about the people whose cases she takes, and bakes cookies for her friend after his basketball game just because. Even as recently as the books, Veronica bakes a cake for her terrible, abandoning mother on her birthday in spite of her replacing her and Keith with another family. She looks after her half-brother Hunter, even if he’s a painful reminder of her mother’s foibles. Veronica isn’t nearly as tough as she pretends to be, and that’s a good thing. That’s what makes her interesting and stops her from being like every other cynical hardboiled detective trope.

The people around Veronica - who support her, evolve with her, and serve as contrasts to her - are what help make her story so compelling. People who can tell her when she’s wrong (Logan, Keith, Weevil, et. all), who remind her of her soft side (Keith, Wallace, Mac, Logan), who can stop her from turning into a noir stereotype and cement her as Veronica Mars. People aren’t tuning in just to see Veronica snark at random side characters. Her personal journey in moving past her trauma and her relationships with other characters are what really makes the character who she is.

Her journey, from the pilot episode to the movie, is realizing that she can’t just shove down and run away from her trauma. Over the course of her show, we see her form bonds with people in spite of her attempts not to - Wallace, Mac, Logan, and a variety of others. They help her, support her, and challenge her in ways that only serve to make her story more interesting. In the movie, we see Veronica realize she can’t keep running and she doesn’t want a cushy life as a New York lawyer with a boyfriend who doesn’t understand why she cares so much about what happens in her hometown. Neptune, as corrupt and corroded as it is, is her hometown.

That’s why it’s such a spectacular slap in the face for the end of season 4 to offer the exact opposite. Veronica loses her husband (after finally evolving from the Veronica in the pilot who swore she was never getting married because she was so cynical about relationships) immediately after marriage. She leaves behind Keith, Wallace, and everyone else to chase unknown cases with unknown people in unknown places. As Rob has said, he saw this as the only way for Veronica to continue to be interesting - roaming the world solo as if she’s Sherlock Holmes.

This is not character progression. This is not driving the plot forward. This is regressing to a character to a point even before the pilot episode - a hardened Veronica who pretends she doesn’t care, who uses her trauma as an armour, and keeps people away from her. It undermines the central message of the movie - that Neptune is her home and in spite of her problems, she’s willing to fight for it. By killing Logan, Rob wanted to kill Veronica’s ties to Neptune. This isn’t an evolution - it’s a devolution.

Rob Thomas has offered this option before - a Veronica exit vehicle sans everyone else, including only Kristen Bell snarking at a camera - in the form of the last-ditch FBI pilot. It was not well received by fans nor networks, and unsurprisingly not picked up or seen anywhere other than a reposting on YouTube. I think if he sincerely expects any other result from a similar future attempt, he’s lying to himself.

If Rob Thomas wanted the male character-centric P.I. noir he initially planned on writing rather than Veronica Mars, he should have written that rather than allowed it to take over the Veronica Mars universe. Writing a woman with the same elements of toxic masculinity as male characters (a complete disregard for their own feelings, ripping themselves away from personal connections, framing “toughness” as superior and emotional development as a waste of time) is not feminism - it’s just lazy. “Strong female characters” don’t have to be made strong by undergoing trauma after trauma and shutting down until they’re a shadow of their former selves. Their male counterparts aren’t expected to have to deal with rape, death, ostracization, and every other possible form of trauma - women sure as hell shouldn’t.

Furthermore, the way that Rob Thomas has framed his fanbase is shameful. Veronica Mars fans aren’t just deranged fangirls too obsessed with Jason Dohring’s abs to care about the health of the story. This isn’t “not what we wanted, but what we needed” - we’re not an audience too stupid to know what’s good for us. We’re an intelligent audience when we’re giving the showrunners money, but when we’re disagreeing with the writing choices we’re just too invested in romance to “get it”. Predictably, these fans (who make up most of Veronica Mars’ fanbase that the showrunners claim to adore so much) are women. For decades, women have been stereotyped as media-consumers that only care about romance and thus can’t care about depth as if the two are mutually exclusive. This stereotype is incredibly sexist, especially given what this fanbase in particular has done for this franchise, and the continued insistence that these fans just don’t know what’s good for them or the show is incredibly condescending and transparent.

This fanbase poured $6 million dollars into a Kickstarter for a money, maintained energy for a revival and actively lobbied streaming services and networks for a continuation, and kept the fandom twelve years after the finale episode of its original incarnation aired. As much as some may resent how fan energy encouraged writers to see Logan evolve, or Logan and Veronica to sort out their issues, or anything else - these were choices the writers made and stood by for years. A sudden U-Turn in storytelling to go from “the fans were right, this dynamic is wonderful and we’re going to base our advertising around it!” to “well, it was never supposed to be about that” is a kick to the teeth to a fanbase that (literally!) gave so much.

It’s not as if this is the first time the fanbase has been disappointed by a writing decision. Speaking for myself, I was heavily disappointed by the way sexual assault was handled on the original incarnation of the show. Veronica’s rape was handled by at first not framing it as a sexual assault at all in “A Trip to the Dentist” - Duncan Kane (her ex-boyfriend/potential half-brother at some point in time) having sex with her while she was unconcious was framed as just “feelings and nature taking over” because he was under the influence. In season 3, the writers decided that framing women protesting sexual assault on campus as deranged feminists who sexually assault men by inserting them with Easter eggs was a good choice. That Easter egg part was played for laughs by the show, writers, and leading cast member.

Even the inclusion of Dick Casablancas for laughs - whose GHB was intended for his girlfriend and ended up in Veronica’s cup - doesn’t feel right. Ryan Hansen’s charm explains a lot of it, but the show seems to place a lot more blame on Madison for Veronica’s rape despite the fact she narrowly escaped the same fate at Dick’s hands. I was disappointed then, and I’m still disappointed with it now - far away from any romantic concerns of the show.

And my biggest problem with the ending of season 4 isn’t just that Logan is dead. I’m incredibly crushed and disappointed to see all of that character development be met with an offscreen car-bomb, but it doesn’t bode well for Veronica’s characterization and ultimate arc either. I fell in love with Veronica’s character first, and I don’t even recognize her anymore.

If the movie was a thank you to the marshmallows (both the fans and Veronica’s inner softness), the ending of the show was a middle finger to both. If the lesson from the series and the film is that you fight for things because they’re worth it and not because they come easily (whether they be relationships or towns), then the lesson from the revival is that the best thing to do is leave and take your bags. So much of the narrative was set up around Veronica accepting who she was and where she’s from - and the revival’s Veronica has finally been traumatized so much she’s packing her bags and giving up. That’s not toughness. That’s not strength. That’s certainly not saving the show or the character.

That’s selling a grim story because you think it’s edgy. That’s trying to be subversive and failing, too focused on shock value to care about the characters. There’s a reason shows like Game of Thrones, Dexter, and How I Met Your Mother got such backlash -- they just don’t make narrative sense and the endings are far from satisfying. Making the fans happy isn’t a mark of bad storytelling, especially when the survival of your franchise has been so contingent on it. Sometimes, they actually do know what they’re talking about! And if you want a season five, maybe don’t alienate your fans to a point they don’t recognize the show anymore. Rob mentioned, “...I will have made a really bad bet if, en masse, the fans turn on the show. That would certainly be a tough lesson to learn.” -- I think he accomplished that!

I wish the Veronica Mars that got me through the toughest parts of my life was still around. But I’d rather say goodbye to her forever than be faced with a cheap imitation.

(DARREN BARNET, CISMALE) - Have you seen MAXWELL VANDERBILT? MAX is in HIS SENIOR year. The MUSIC MAJOR is 24 years old & is a PISCES. People say HE is KIND-HEARTED, SPONTANEOUS, GULLIBLE and SCATTERBRAINED. Rumors say they’re a member of KINCAID. I heard from the gossip blog that HE'S WANTED IN BRAZIL FOR HIS INVOLVEMENT WITH A GANG.

omg yes yet another chaotic intro from yours truly !!

so this is my himbo son maxwell but the only people that call him that are his parents so call him max

yes he’s a vanderbilt ( like THE vanderbilt ) i’m not gonna sit down here and carve out his lineage bc thats too much brain power for me but he’s related enough to the vanderbilt name on his dad’s side, not enough to make him at celebrity status, but enough to give him access to the wealth and power of having the name

so obviously he’s stupid rich

and he’s stupid

unfortunately the smart genes just weren’t really passed onto this guy and he’s always struggled with anything school related

he’s also got dyslexia and has adhd so !! it’s just constant winning for him tbh

but it was okay because max didnt really care about school he just wanted to be a #rockstar

he has like a whole youtube channel of him singing and playing guitar and his tik tok is just like anything musical at all because its the only thing he really enjoys

but what he makes up for in his passions he lacks in his motivation to do anything !! he simply wants to vibe and be friends with everyone

so after high school he was like hey mom and dad i wanna go backpacking in south america :D and i guess they said yes? snaps for parents that support their weird underachieving sons? (also theyre rich so i guess money aint nothin but a thing)

so he did that for like two years but right before he came to collect he ended up befriending some uh sus people

to be fair he didnt KNOW they were in a dangerous gang until he had to run away from brazilian police after a drug deal gone wrong?? he thought a boca-de-fumo was a restaurant??

anyways max was freaking the fuck out so he phoned his rich as shit parents and they got him out of the country but made him promise he would at least try to go to school

so they pulled some strings (aka donated a bunch of money to the school) because max was really a c-average student and he came to yates!! yay for escaping prison!!

so uh he’s been going to yates just vibing, doing the whole music thing and seeing where it takes him

his dad was in calloway but max took one look at them and said its gonna be a hard pass and joined kincaid (it was more his speed)

in terms of uh personality max is just!!! really!!! nice!!! he reminds me of the boy version of an old character of mine named liv in that he really likes to help people out and idk if ur sad hes down to just bake you some fuckin cookies if u want (edibles on demand)

just a sweet dumb man child !! thats all he is

wanted connections

besties!! give him some buddies

ex-gf idk break ups can be bad or good he doesnt really hold a grudge but i’d love to see him have an ex that broke up with him because he just doesnt take life seriously at all

fwb/hookups

give me a tutor plot because i know max has been putting off finishing his gen eds

#max ( intro )#drug tw #police tw

when u get this u have to answer with 5 things u like about yourself, publicly. then, send this ask to 10 of your favourite followers !!! ✨🥰☁️

omg ily ash, thank you so much!!! 🌻🤍

I am good at reading people and immediately figuring out how to get the preferred, positive response from them. It’s incredibly helpful in interviews when I had to bs my way through them.

I make a mean peanut butter cookie amongst other things like slutty brownies and pretty cupcakes, and I always sold the most at my high school’s bake sale donation drives.

I’m unafraid to try new foods. Everywhere I travel, I make sure to try the local delicacy no matter what.

I’m good at putting outfits together!! My friends always go to me to choose their outfit or when we go shopping, I pick out clothes for them based on what I think looks good on them and what looks to be within their preferred style. they might think it looks bad on the hanger, but they end up putting back what they initially chose and buying the items I picked for them. and they get compliments on their outfits on ig, which makes me happy :’)

I have a good memory. I remember the minor details and such very well, and it surprises people when I bring them up in a conversation with them. It really helps when I have multiple exams to study for because I can memorize things much faster in a shorter amount of time!

How I Get Thru Ottawa Winters

1. Expect a 6-month experience.

It is not uncommon for Ottawa to have snow and cold between November and April. This way my hopes are not dashed when the weather gets colder again after the January thaw.

2. Dress according to the weather. Pay no attention to the calendar.

Spring fever is a term that I use to describe the hope I feel when the number of daylight hours increases. It’s wonderful, but no matter how great the temptation is to start wearing fewer clothes as spring fever hits, I resist. I look at the actual temperature and dress accordingly. I try to take glory in the bundling. I wear a lot of red in winter because red makes me feel happy, intense and fiery.

3. Notice what makes winter beautiful.

The other day when we had the big storm with the massive snowflakes, I was at home and cozy. It was so quiet. I felt safe and comfortable. It was windy otherwise I would have gone out and bundled up, enjoying the silence and the feeling of being wrapped up and alone in the quiet.

The angle of the light changes from the harsh white of early winter to the soft yellow of the oncoming spring. I live on the 19th floor with a southern exposure so the change in colour, intensity and angle of the sun really affects me. On January mornings, I have to close the curtains to avoid having the sun in my eyes.

I love the way frost paints flowers on the windows and ice hangs from trees and rooftops like jewels in the sun.

4. Do not compare Ottawa winters to winters elsewhere. I love the photos of flowers I see on BC folks’ social media accounts, but it is easy to be envious, to experience a bitter disappointment that our magnolias will not start to bloom until May and if we’re lucky we might have a paltry crocus or daffodil in April. This just makes those croci and daffis ever sweeter to me when they come. Our blooms are defiant af. Be like the blooms. Be a feisty tulip.

5. Give money to the folks on the street. At this time of year, I give extra. I chat with homeless people and I bring whatever toonies and loonies (sometimes $5) as I can with me, putting the money in a change purse in my winter coat so I can easily give. I also usually donate to Cornerstone Housing for Women, a charity that provides emergency housing to women in need in the downtown core. There’s also the Ottawa Foodbank or other charities for donations of money and items that help. I have found that the more I give to others, the better I feel, the less lonely and blue I feel.

6. Get Moving

This year I joined a fitness program at Carleton University for 55+ folk (Senior Ravens), and it’s made a great difference. I am outside at least three times a week, whereas in the past I had a tendency to cocoon too much, which not only makes my body sore, but also makes me blue.

One of the classes is aquafit. It is great fun to dance around in the pool with fellow aquafit participants to the music.

I am writing a manuscript with the working title of “Motion and Light” about the Senior Raven experience.

7. Get Social

This one is harder for me. My instinct in winter is hibernation and isolation. The gym has helped. Three days a week I interact with fellow fitness participants. After my Monday class I hang out with a few of the regulars. We have coffee and chat. It’s lovely.

I am not a night person at all and these days I am exhausted in the evenings. I used to attend a lot of literary events but it’s harder for me to do so these days because of this exhaustion. Literary events have always been my go to for society. I still seek out my literary pals but more on social media these days.

8. Make Plans for Spring

I have verified that Carleton’s Senior Ravens program will continue in the spring, and I plan to continue taking the fitness classes.

Once the spring arrives, I plan to walk from Carleton to the Fletcher Wildlife Garden, a 20-minute walk from Carleton U.

I imagine myself walking outside with headphones and a fanny pack. I have even purchased the fanny pack. It is peony petal pink. (not the fuchsia, but a pale shade).

9. Glory in the Cocoonery

I bake cookies, read good books, watch films, take long naps buried under the covers (or outside of them during a hot flash). I make playlists of music to help me through. Songs like Could Be So Happy by the Heartless Bastards bring me great joy (“gonna keep on going, I don’t want to stand still. … oh I’m longing to be…out in the sweet unknown”) The xmas holidaze often result in a slow down and a quieting. I take advantage of the slowness to reflect, to write, to create and to rest.

10. Remember that winter ends.

Sending love and solidarity to those for whom winter is hard on the body and the psyche. I know it feels like fucking forever, but winter will end…eventually.

Honestly I wanted to pick about ten more of these but I managed to narrow it down. So I guess you can pick one or if you think you can do it ram them all into one. 😊 1. “Your hands are freezing!” 2. “Why is there mistletoe everywhere?” 3.“What’s that smell… are you making cookies?” For EreHisu please and thank you! Maybe Eren is out shoveling snow and Hisu comes out and brings him back inside to kisses and cookies? 🤔

i thought i was gonna struggle w/ this one but i came up w/ the perfect idea for it i hope u love it!!!

The Little Matchmakers

EreHisu. Canonverse.

1304 words.

Buy me a ko-fi!

Historia finds baking relaxing. She loves the time she has alone in the kitchen; it’s a nice change from the constant bombardment of papers and meetings with different government officials. It also gives her a brief break from always playing with the children in the orphanage but still allows her to keep an eye on the children as they frolic in the snow outside. She smiles when she hears their shrieks of laughter as they throw snowballs at each other and build snowmen. Historia watches as the kids hang from Eren’s arm, shouting excitedly as he swings them about. She laughs at the sight of it – Humanity’s Hope playing so gleefully with children – and her hand covers her mouth to hide her smile. She’s so distracted that the sound of the timer going off startles her. The queen picks up the timer, frowning at it. She’s surprised that so much time has passed without her noticing. It seems that she was only looking at the window for a second, and now the cookies have finished baking without her even noticing. Historia sets the timer down and walks over to the oven, opens it, and pulls out the freshly baked cookies.

On second thought, she probably should have noticed that the cookies were done earlier. The scent of chocolate had been subtle before, but the fragrance fills the room once Historia opens the oven to take the cookies out. She sets them out on the wire rack on the kitchen counter to cool. If she had less restraint, she would pop one in her mouth right now – just the thought of the fudgy cookie melting in her mouth makes her salivate – but she manages to leave them alone, satisfied with just licking the powdered sugar from her fingers after she’s finished setting the cookies on the rack.

Historia stands back to admire her work. It’s a shame that Sasha isn’t here today – although, that might actually be a good thing. She’s sure that the huntress would appreciate the chocolate cookies – the beautiful cracks on the outside and the coat of powdered sugar that reminds Historia of snow. Well, Historia’s sure that the children will enjoy the cookies anyway even if they’ll most likely just pop them into their mouths without taking a look. She’ll just let them cool for a bit before calling the children in…She takes a look out the window to see what they’re doing now, but she doesn’t see them outside. Historia frowns, rubbing a sleeve on the window to clear it up a bit, and leans in closer. Still, she can’t see any of the children anywhere. All she sees are abandoned snow forts and snow people along with a trail of footprints in the snow. Historia’s eyes follow the trail, hoping that she’ll find out where they’ve gone once she gets to the end. She starts from what she thinks is the beginning – a crowd of footprints in the snow near one of the trees near the front of the farmhouse – and follows it as it loops around until it nears the farmhouse. She’s nearly at the end of it when the door to the house opens. “It smells delicious in here!” Eren says, holding open the door with a grin. The children are behind him, pushing past each other so that they can see inside. “Are you making cookies?” “Well, yes,” Historia says, wincing a little when the children all cheer loudly. She starts to usher them in to get them out of the cold, brushing the snow off their clothes before they get it all over the kitchen. To Eren, she says in a low voice, “They need to cool for a minute before they’re eaten, Eren!” “Nonsense! Cookies are best right out of the oven. Everyone knows that!” Eren replies with a laugh. He reaches out to pull a beanie off a little boy’s head, shaking the snow off it before placing it back on the boy’s head. When he does so, his fingers accidentally brush Historia’s. “Your hands are freezing!” Historia says in surprise. She clutches Eren’s hands in hers just to make sure. She frowns when she realizes that Eren isn’t dressed for the weather at all. While all the children are bundled up, Eren’s only wearing one of his military coats without gloves or a scarf. “You could get sick! Aren’t you cold at all?” “A little, now that you mention it,” Eren admits with a sheepish smile. He follows the last kid in, shaking the snow off his boots before he enters the kitchen. He inhales the sweet smell of freshly baked cookies as Historia moves behind him to shut the door. “It’s a good thing you lured me in here with those cookies, huh?” “Hey, you’re going to get snow everywhere,” Historia says, yanking him back by his collar when he moves to join the children at the kitchen island where the cookies are. She sighs when she sees all the snow still on his shoulders and reaches up to brush it off. It’s very like him to look after all the children and forget about himself, Historia thinks. “You even have some snow in your hair.” “It’ll all melt soon anyway!” Eren says, but he stoops down a bit to allow Historia to brush the snowflakes from his hair anyway. When she’s finally done, he stands up again and gives the queen a lopsided grin. “Is it good now? Can I finally have some of your delicious cookies?” Historia is about to lecture him some more, but she immediately stops once she sees his smile. She can always lecture him later, she supposes. She’s about to invite him to eat the cookies, but she hears the children burst into giggles. The queen looks over at them and they try to suppress their laughter behind their gloved hands, but their giggles can still be heard. Leaning over, Historia whispers, “What are they laughing at?” “I don’t know…,” Eren says, his voice trailing as he tries to look at what the children find so amusing. It looks as though they’re looking at him and the queen, but he doesn’t see what’s so funny about the two of them together. He looks a little more closely around them – the mat, the door, the doorframe – until he finally sees what they’re laughing at. He looks up curiously, his arm reaching up to touch the holiday decoration that dangles above them. “Did you put this up there?” “What? How did that get there!” Historia says, mortified when she sees the mistletoe hanging from the doorframe. She remembers seeing it in the box of decorations that were donated to the orphanage, but she also recalls putting it away because they didn’t have any need for something like that here. Besides, she had always thought that it was a silly tradition anyway. Now she regrets that she hadn’t hidden that stupid thing from the children better. Flustered, she tries to push Eren inside and hopefully make him forget about as quickly as possible. “The kids must have put it up when I wasn’t paying attention. Let’s just go inside-!” “Why?” Eren asks, not budging no matter how hard Historia pushes. He touches the mistletoe again, admiring the snow-white berries. He glances over at the kids and then back at Historia. “We can’t disappoint the kids now, can we?” “Well, I suppose,” Historia says, relenting, but she feels her face grow warm when she hears the children laugh even harder. She should change her mind. She turns her head to tell Eren to forget all about it, but Eren has already made his move. The children cheer as the two adults kiss, happy that their plan had worked.
