Monday
When the door chimes a little after eight at night, you know it’s him.
He strolls in, usual glasses perched on his nose and jacket layered with a few specks of snow. His hair isn’t styled, soft waves adorning his head. He looks like the average person who’s winding down from a long day at work. From the two and a half months you’ve known him, this is his usual state on Monday nights.
Wonwoo entered your cozy bookstore café nearly three months ago. His order rarely varies, and sometimes he orders a drink he could get anywhere else. Yet, for some reason, he always comes here.
And throughout those months, you’ve realized you always look forward to his presence.
“Busy evening?” he asks while stepping up to the counter.
You’re in the middle of packing a pastry for another customer and quickly hand off the bag to your coworker.
“More so than usual; it’s finals week,” you reply with a small smile.
Wonwoo glances around, nodding as he takes in the sight of many tables occupied by people with textbooks, laptops, and notes scattered around them.
“I don’t miss those days,” he chuckles.
“I don’t either,” you agree. “So, what can I get you today?”
Wonwoo peers up at the menu behind you. You wonder why he does so since he usually rotates between three drinks.
“A hot chocolate,” he replies.
“Oh?” You can’t hide your surprise.
He grins, tilting his head slightly. “Should I have ordered something else?”
“No!” you hastily say. “You can order whatever you want.”
He pulls out a bill that exceeds the cost of the order and slides it to your side of the counter.
“Just thought I��d try something new for the holidays,” he explains, then leaves to find a seat.
“Wait!” you call out, bill in your hand. “You paid too much!”
If Wonwoo can hear you, he pretends he doesn’t. He continues his journey and ends up in the corner next to a window by the bookshelves. He retrieves a book from his bag, opening it where his bookmark rests.
Your hand falls to the counter with a heavy sigh. You guess you’ll give him his change when you give him his order. Normally, you’d call customer’s names or numbers for pick-up. But Wonwoo is different.
Wonwoo’s one of the rare customers who gets his order hand-delivered.
After completing the transaction in the system and making his drink, you grab his change from the register and walk to his table.
“One hot chocolate,” you announce and set the cup down along with his change.
“I’ll take the drink,” he says and brings it closer, blatantly ignoring the cash next to it.
“Wonwoo,” you say.
“Yn,” he answers, eyes flickering up.
There’s a small smirk on his lips that makes your insides churn.
“You overpaid,” you simply state.
“So?”
You move his money closer. “So, take it back.”
Wonwoo slides the money back to you. “Consider it a tip.”
“You know we don’t take tips here,” you say, moving it again.
“You should. You all work hard.”
“People are already struggling as is. If they can find solace in a little place like this, that’s all that matters.”
Wonwoo rests his hands on top of yours, which is still on the money, and slides it back to you.
“Then consider it a holiday present. From me to you,” he smiles.
His hand feels warm on yours. Your eyes move down, but you wish you hadn’t.
His large hand nearly covers yours, making you feel small yet protected. You can tell from his build that he’s strong and fit. You wonder what it’d be like to get a hug from him.
“I—” you struggle to speak.
“It’d make me happy.”
You sigh, nodding hesitantly.
He slowly removes his hand. “Thank you.”
“N-No problem,” you say, gathering the change and pocketing it. “Enjoy your book and drink.”
“Thanks,” Wonwoo replies and picks up his book. He holds it up with one hand and uses the other to sip his hot chocolate.
You make your way back to the front, trying to ignore the lingering warmth on your hand and the feeling in your chest.
Tuesday
Wonwoo shows up at the same time but orders one of his usual drinks. It's a different book than yesterday and judging by the similar cover, it's probably the next one in the series.
Ever since Wonwoo “gifted” you money, you’ve been trying to think of something to get him. It’s a little tough considering you don’t actually know him. You know he works a duty-heavy job and that he lives nearby. You know he has a lot of friends despite him being so quiet. Although you’ve never seen Wonwoo and his friends in the same room, they often come with him to the café in duos or trios.
You also learned he’s an avid cat and gaming lover.
You were surprised about the latter.
“Is he also a student?” one of your new coworkers, Sebastian, asks thirty minutes after Wonwoo’s arrival.
You wipe off the cup in your hand and set it on the counter, calling the number associated with it.
“No, he graduated already,” you reply and watch him practice making a drink.
“You seem to know him. Are you two friends?” he wonders.
You lean against the counter. “I don’t think so. He’s just a regular here, so I’ve learned a few things here and there.”
“Ah,” he replies and hands you the finished drink.
You take the drink and start taking a sip to see how well he did.
“You should ask him out.”
You choke on the drink, eyes wide as you reach for a napkin to wipe your chin.
“T-That wouldn’t be appropriate,” you stammer.
He laughs and takes the drink from you. “He’s not working here, and it’s not like you’re paying for him to come by. I don’t see how it’s inappropriate.”
You sigh, knowing he has a point. It’s not that you’re not attracted to Wonwoo, but it feels almost out of line. Plus, you’re not sure if you like Wonwoo, or just like the thought of him. You haven’t been in a relationship in years and would be lying to say you don’t miss having a partner.
You miss being able to share life memories with someone.
Wonwoo’s handsome. He’s kind, funny, caring, and fit—not that that’s a big deciding factor, but it sure is a bonus. Though, do you just want someone with those attributes, or do you want him?
���Just think about it,” Sebastian suggests and greets a new customer.
Your eyes drop to your feet in thought.
Part of you worries you’d make it awkward if he says no. It’s not like you are friends, so you won’t be ruining a friendship, but you enjoy seeing his face every day. His simple presence is one of the highlights of your days.
Plus, you don’t even know if he has a partner already!
You groan, putting a hand over your forehead as you try to organize your thoughts.
“Bad night?” a familiar voice asks from over the counter.
You drop your hand to see who it is.
Wonwoo stands with his empty cup and saucer, book tucked under his arm.
“Ah, uh, not really,” you reply sheepishly. You can’t disclose the true reason for your state; you’ve never been the best liar either.
“Well, I hope whatever is troubling you passes soon,” he says and holds out his dirty dishes.
“You could’ve left them on the table,” you say, grabbing them from his grasp. Your fingers touch his, and it’s difficult not to feel like a silly teenager in the movies, especially with your current predicament.
“I know,” he smiles, “but I wanted to tell you bye, and you seem busy.”
You set the items in the sink before addressing him again. “Still… But thank you anyway.”
“The drink was great, as always.”
“Thanks.”
“I’ll see you tomorrow, then,” he says, slowly stepping away from the counter.
You smile, nodding. “See you.”
His eyes linger on you before he turns and exits your café.
Wednesday
Wonwoo comes and goes as usual. It’s a busy night and you’re unable to speak to him much. It’s not the first time that has happened, so he doesn’t seem bothered by the lack of interaction. Regardless, you wish you could’ve spoken to him more.
That night was spent browsing the internet for the perfect gift for Wonwoo.
From gaming headsets to the top-rated books on Goodreads, you felt like you scoured every possible present for him. But none of them satisfied you.
It wasn’t until you came across bookmarks in your recommended section that you decided what to get him.
Maybe a bookmark was too boring, but you figured it was the safer option.
You spend over an hour searching for the right bookmark, but again, you come up short. They’re either too flowery, too plain, or too cliché.
In the end, you opt for making your own.
You find some DIY bookmark kits online and place an order. Trying not to second guess your decision, you call it a night—going to sleep as you brainstorm what to put on the item.
Thursday
“Do people actually read these books?” Wonwoo asks during your break, which you decided to spend with him.
Your gaze follows his to the wall lined with several bookshelves.
You chuckle, “Sometimes.”
“You said you got these books donated?” he asks, recalling an earlier conversation you had when he was a newcomer.
“Most of them,” you hum.
“Does your offer still stand?” he asks.
You turn to him with puzzlement.
He smiles. “You said I could take a book if I left one.”
“Oh,” you laugh out of embarrassment for forgetting. “Of course.”
Wonwoo nods and then stands up. He takes two steps to his right, then carefully plucks a book from a high shelf. He replaces the empty space with his own book.
Something about the simple act has your heartwarming. Or maybe it’s the way he’s so gentle with the books as if they’ll cry if moved too aggressively. You wonder if he’d touch you as carefully, if given the chance. Would you find comfort in his caresses the way you think the books would if they were personified?
Wonwoo sits in his seat again, perching his glasses higher after they slide down.
“Have you read this?” he asks, twisting the book so the cover faces you.
You analyze it for a moment, but the title doesn’t ring a bell.
Shaking your head, “Unfortunately not. I haven’t had the chance to read in a long while.”
“I guess running a business is time-consuming,” he teases lightly.
“How do you find the time? Didn’t you say your work is hard, too?” you ask.
He leans back in his seat, book resting in his lap.
“I make time,” he simply says. “I found it’s important to make time for things I care about.”
He’s staring at you in a way that makes you think there’s more to his words than he lets on.
“T-That’s a good habit, I suppose,” you say.
“When was the last time you did something for yourself, and not the café?” he questions.
Your brows furrow in deep thought. You thought the answer would come easily, but it doesn’t.
“I—I can’t remember,” you answer with your gaze down, a little dejected at the self-reflection.
Wonwoo sits up and leans toward you. He lowers himself until he can snag eye contact.
“Don’t be too harsh on yourself,” he reassures. “I know what it’s like to bury myself in my work.”
“You probably think I’m pathetic, huh?” you laugh awkwardly.
Wonwoo shakes his head.
“It’s good to be dedicated to something. Your efforts are clearly visible,” he gestures to your crowded café. “But at the same time, it’s also good to not burn yourself out.”
You nod in agreement. “I’ll try to be better.”
“Not for me though. For you,” he says.
You offer him a kind smile that he returns. “For me.”
Friday
Wonwoo doesn’t come at his usual time.
You finally finished his gift last night and are eager to show it to him. You try to suppress your excitement, but it’s difficult to calm your mix of emotions.
As you made it, you realized it was the first time doing something non-work related. Usually, you’d be researching new recipes, doing finances, or simply sleeping. Last night, however, you were doing something personal.
Wonwoo’s words from yesterday ring loudly in your ears.
It felt good to take a break from work.
It felt good to feel like an actual person and not some workaholic machine.
Some say people come into your life for a reason. Maybe you’d still be stuck in your cycle, if not for him.
You wish he were here. 
Wonwoo’s usually a punctual man, so being this late sends uneasy nerves coursing through you. But, the idea of him not showing up at all is even more worrisome. 
Perhaps he’s working overtime and will be here soon. He’s never missed a day.
Yet, as minutes turn into hours, you begin losing hope.
Excitement transitions into worry. This isn’t his typical behavior. You don’t have a way to contact him either.
Is he hurt? Does he need help? Did you say something wrong yesterday? Did he finally decide he doesn’t like your café anymore?
Perhaps you’re too caught up with giving him your gift that you’re overreacting. It could simply be a late, late night at work for him.
He’ll be here.
Even if he just grabs his drink to go, which he’s done in the past, he’ll be here.
Tumblr media
The bell chimes as your last coworker leaves for the night.
Wonwoo’s present sat abandoned in your locker throughout your shift. There’s an odd discomfort in your chest as you stare at it now. 
You’re not sure if it originates from being unable to gift it and see Wonwoo’s reaction, or if it’s because he never showed up.
Probably a combination of both, but more so the latter.
It’s uncanny to not see Wonwoo every day.
You had never thought about how you’d feel if you didn’t see him constantly. He was just always there. Always so reliable that you didn’t feel the need to consider what if.
What if he stopped showing up? What if you never saw him again? What if he no longer was a constant in your life?
You swallow the lump forming in your throat.
It’s a harsh reality to know he’s not required to visit. He can leave any time he wants. He can stop visiting your bookstore café at any moment.
There’s a strange thought about you not being good enough for him. Though, you’re not sure what that has anything to do with his absence.
Why would it matter if you weren’t good enough for him? He didn’t come to the café for you.
Did he?
If it was you he wanted, couldn’t he ask you out? Perhaps not as a romantic date, but as friends?
He never has, so he must not want to know you beyond the café. Meaning, he doesn’t come to it solely for you.
But, what changed for him not to show up tonight?
Unsettled with your thoughts, you decide to distract yourself with the final tasks you have to do before you leave.
However, the ride home is filled with more endless thoughts about Wonwoo.
Saturday
You come to work with less bounce in your step than usual.
The world outside seems dimmer. It feels as if the skies are going to be consumed with clouds and rain is going to fall. However, a storm was not in the weather’s forecast.
“Are you getting sick?” Sebastian asks.
You force a smile onto your face for the customer in front of you, handing them their order before looking at your coworker.
“No, why?” you wonder.
“You don’t seem well. Did you not sleep well last night?”
You wish you had, but you tossed and turned constantly. You didn’t think Wonwoo’s absence would affect you so much, but your mind kept wandering to every possibility for his no-show. In the end, you just gave yourself a headache.
“No,” you sigh, “but don’t worry about me.”
You try to smile again, but you’re sure Sebastian can see through it.
“Want me to close up tonight?” he offers.
“Don’t you have a big essay due tomorrow?” you question, remembering how stressed he sounded a few days ago.
“Yeah, but—”
“I’ll be fine,” you insist.
Huffing, he nods and grabs the cup from your hand. “Then go rest for a bit while I finish these orders.”
You purse your lips, contemplating arguing. In the end, you relent, moving to the backroom’s couch and plopping down.
You’ve been scrolling through your phone for ten minutes when you hear a familiar voice.
“Is Yn not here today?”
“Oh, she’s not feeling well, so she’s taking a break. Is there something wrong with our service?” Sebastian answers politely.
You shove your phone in your pocket and head to the door. There’s a small window that you peep out of.
You catch a glimpse of Wonwoo’s frown before he speaks again.
“No, everything’s fine. Will you tell her I hope she feels better?” he asks.
Sebastian nods slowly. Although you can’t see his face, you can see the cogs turn in his head.
“Oh! Ooh! You’re that guy.”
Wonwoo looks confused.
“I’m sorry?” Wonwoo replies.
“The guy that always comes in—”
Not trusting Sebastian to keep his matchmaking attempts at bay, you push through the door.
“Wonwoo,” you greet, trying not to seem too eager that he's here today even though you are.
Wonwoo’s eyes drift past Sebastian to see you. Instantly, his mouth begins to lift.
“Hey, you,” he says lightly, sweetly. “I heard you’re not feeling well.”
“Ah, I’m fine. Seb’s just overreacting.”
Sebastian narrows his eyes at you in a glare.
“You’re supposed to be resting,” he scolds.
“I’ve rested enough,” you shoo with a hand.
“Ten minutes isn’t long enou—”
“Seb, do you mind attending to the customers behind Wonwoo?” you interject.
Sebastian eyes you before grumbling under his breath—something about you being stubborn—then greets the next customer.
You move down the counter to an empty space.
“What can I get you?” you ask Wonwoo.
He shakes his head. “Actually, I just wanted to talk today, if that’s okay. I won’t be long.”
You want to say he can take as much time as he wants, but you hold back.
Concern creeps from the shadows around you.
Is he going to tell you he’s leaving forever? Does he not like your drinks anymore? Did he find somewhere better? Someone better?
“O-Oh, yeah, okay,” you mumble and maneuver around the counter.
You lead Wonwoo to his usual corner, next to the window and the bookshelves. It’s a little quieter here.
You both take a seat from across each other.
You fidget in your seat, nerves making you angsty.
“Are you sure you feel okay?” he asks.
“Just tired, nothing to be worried about,” you smile.
Something in your chest warms at knowing he cares about your well-being.
“Hm. Alright,” he replies a little skeptically.
“Is everything okay with you?” You try to change the subject. “You didn’t come in yesterday.”
Your voice trails off, not wanting to show how concerned you were about his absence. However, Wonwoo can sense it regardless.
He smiles, though the small lift at the corner of his mouth tells you he’s amused with your attempt to hide your worry.
“Did you miss me?” he wonders.
Your eyes widen a bit. “I—Well. I just noticed you didn’t come because you always come, you know?”
He nods with a subtle smirk still on his lips, yet it fades after a few seconds.
“I’m sorry I didn’t come,” he apologizes sincerely. “One of my friends was in the hospital.”
Your heart drops and guilt kicks in. It’s not that you didn’t consider the possibility, but you had been more focused on him not liking you or the café.
“Goodness, I’m sorry to hear that. Are they okay?” you ask, frowning.
“He had to get surgery, but he’s fine. Just a little grumpy and whiny,” he chuckles.
You feel better hearing his small laughter.
“That’s better than being in pain, I guess,” you reply.
“Yes,” he concurs. He waits for a beat then continues, “I wanted to ask you a question.”
You tilt your head. 
A question. That sounds better than some statement about not seeing you again.
“Okay,” you say.
“When we last spoke, it was about you not having enough time for stuff outside of work,” he begins.
You nod to show you’re following but don’t cut in.
“Well, there’s this small event tomorrow. It’s nothing fancy, just some walking around. I wanted to know if you’d like to go with me?”
Your heart races as he speaks. You’re stumped for words. It’s as if you’ve subconsciously been waiting for this, but now that the time has come, you’re too nervous to answer.
“You can decline,” Wonwoo assures.
Although you’re anxious about the idea of meeting outside of the café, you don’t want to miss the opportunity.
“N-No! I mean, no, I don’t want to decline. What time? Where?” you hurriedly say before he can take back his offer.
He grins and holds out a small piece of paper.
You take it, turning it over to see scribbled numbers. You guess it’s his phone number.
“I can pick you up after work. You close early tomorrow, right?” he asks.
You nod, trying to hide your smile at him remembering your café hours. Though, since he visits frequently, you guess it shouldn’t be that surprising.
“Dress warm, okay?” he adds.
“Okay.”
Wonwoo stands from his seat, and you follow.
“Get some more rest tonight, Yn,” he says softly.
“Y-Yeah. I will,” you reply.
Although you’re no longer fretting over reasons for his no-show yesterday, you’ll be worrying about tomorrow now. Still, you’ll try to sleep—maybe even drink some tea or warm milk. You’ll try for him.
Sunday
Wonwoo comes to the café a few minutes before you close. He’s dressed in a fluffy hoodie layered with a light brown trench coat. He looks so…soft and warm.
Before you depart, you make a drink for each of you. He tries to pay but you profusely veto his offer.
The ride to the event is quiet except for the random music being played from his stereo. You’re unsure how long the ride is, but you don’t care. Even if you’re not speaking, it’s nice being with him in a new environment. It’s nice to see a different side of Wonwoo. And part of you hopes he likes seeing a different side of you too.
The event is free, but since donations are strongly encouraged, you and Wonwoo slip a few bills into the plastic reindeer before stepping onto the lit-up walkway.
People of all ages are enjoying the event. The walkway is wide enough to accommodate a couple of people at a time, but it’s still crowded. It forces you and Wonwoo to bump shoulders several times, and each time, you both apologize.
You notice a few minutes into the walk that he seems tenser than usual. You’re not sure of the reason, and he doesn’t seem inclined to disclose the answer.
You try to distract him by pointing out different features—from big blown-up Santas to mechanical reindeer moving up and down. However, it doesn’t seem too effective.
Wonwoo’s steps eventually begin to slow. He never comes to a complete stop, but with his slow speed, a lot of people pass by. Eventually, there’s a gap in the crowd and his body relaxes.
He must not be a fan of crowds.
“Can we sit for a bit?” you ask, not really needing to rest but there are picnic tables with fake candles on them nearby that are less crowded.
“Sure,” he says.
You guide him to an empty table and sit across from each other.
“Thank you for taking me here,” you smile while glancing around. “It’s so pretty.”
The area is filled with multitudes of holiday decor. There are so many lights strung that you don’t need streetlamps to see. It’s rather magical to see it all. It’s a shame you can’t see this all year round. But then again, it might lose its effect if you see it constantly.
“I’m glad you like it,” he replies.
His eyes drop to your hands clasped on the table. There’s a slight shiver in them.
Suddenly, his hands are covering yours—warmth instantly shooting up your arms from his touch. He says nothing as he rubs his thumbs along your cool skin.
You want to say something; however, it doesn’t feel like you have to, so you just stare at him, a small smile on your face while you bask in the warmth he’s providing.
“How does it feel?” he questions after a few minutes.
You open your mouth to say “good” and to thank him for taking away your coldness, but before you can, he speaks again.
“Getting out, I mean. How does it feel to get out of the café?”
“Oh.” Your face heats rapidly. Thank goodness for your slow reaction. “It’s refreshing.”
Wonwoo hums, nodding.
“Should we walk around again, or should we go? I don’t want you catching a cold,” he says.
“I’d like to see more if that’s okay,” you admit.
“It’s more than okay,” he reassures.
He starts to stand, but you grip his hands to stop him. He stares down at you bemused.
“I have something for you,” you explain.
He sits back down, hands leaving yours when you pull away to retrieve something from your bag.
It’s a small black box with a purple bow on it, albeit the decor is a little squished from being confined to your small bag.
“What’s this?” he asks and carefully brings the box nearby.
“Since you gave me a gift this week,” you say, referring to his tip on Monday, “I got you one as well.”
“You didn’t—”
“Need to? I know. But, I wanted to. And I worked hard on it, so accept it, please?” you say lightly so as to not sound too serious. 
He smiles and nods, lifting the lid.
Inside is the bookmark you made him. On the bookmark’s center is a cat with a game controller. It’s simple, but that’s the best you could do with your lack of drawing skills. Attached to the bookmark is a purple tassel.
“You made this?” Wonwoo asks in amazement.
“I’ll only admit to that if you like it,” you say out of nervousness.
Wonwoo laughs and glances at you. “I like it a lot.”
“Then yes, I made it.”
His gaze shifts to the item again, examining it closely for a bit. Then, he sets it back carefully in the box and puts it in his pocket.
“Thank you,” he says earnestly.
“Of course,” you smile.
You and Wonwoo walk around for twenty more minutes before you call it a night. Throughout the entire walk, he held your hand in his free pocket. The warmth from his body combined with his sheltered pocket made your hand clammy. You felt embarrassed at the fact, but Wonwoo refused to release his hold. Truthfully, you didn’t want to let go, but you also didn’t want him to be disgusted at the feeling.
Wonwoo drove you back to your café where your car was.
You tried to demand he stay in your car since he parked next to yours, but he still climbed out.
You stare at his eyes which are framed by his glasses; his cheeks are slightly rosy from the temperature. His dark hair dances softly in the wind. He looks so handsome.
Wonwoo leans forward and connects his lips ever so softly against your cheek. You have the urge to turn your face and capture his lips with yours, but you don’t.
There’s something romantic about going slow.
Wonwoo pulls back with a kind smile.
“You look beautiful tonight, Yn,” he whispers, breath ghosting your face.
You can’t stop the smile forming on your face even if you tried.
“And you look handsome,” you reply.
Wonwoo mirrors your grin.
“Get home safely, alright?” he instructs.
You nod. “You too.”
You unlock your car and climb inside.
Wonwoo lingers outside, watching with his hands in his pockets.
After starting your car and rolling down your window, you lean out and prop your head on your arm that’s resting on the edge.
He bends slightly to see you better, a small grin on his mouth. His face isn’t too close, but it’s closer than it should be for an average person. But, Wonwoo isn’t average.
He’s quiet for a while, and you take the time to observe his features again. Your heart is thumping loudly in your ears. The desire to kiss him resurfaces.
Maybe you’re starting to like Wonwoo. Not just because he’s attractive, kind, funny, and caring, but because he’s Wonwoo.
Wonwoo, who’s been a frequent customer at your café for months.
Wonwoo, who’s always been supportive and kind.
Wonwoo, who’s slowly capturing your heart.
“So, I’ll see you tomorrow?” he asks with a smile still on his face.
“Yeah,” you say, “I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Because of Wonwoo, you’re always looking forward to the next day.

school day meal plan! 📚☕️
[ok i know this is a little foolish because it’s literally june 1st but my lacrosse season ended which i relied on a lot to burn off cals so now i have to REALLY watch what i’m eating & unfortunately i am a binger so i need to set a plan]
// end of sports season edition:
—breakfast • choose between:
✰ iced coffee: 0-40 cals (i go for either black or if i have the money, my simple dunkin order is a cold brew w/ almond milk + 1 splenda + 1 shot of vanilla which is around 50 cals)
✰ fruit bowl: 50-70 cals
dunkin refresher w/ green tea: 130 cals (bomb for a medium imo)
chia seed pudding (little to no toppings): 100 cals
✰ celsius: 10 cals
—lunch • ✰ ✰ ✰
[i have block scheduling so i have a 25 min free period in between my hour long classes so i usually eat about 2 cups of AIR-POPPED/ORGANIC popcorn, which is ab 70 cals yet rlly satisfying, and then skip lunch or eat little bits of my friends’ food]
diet coke: 0 cals (if i’m feeling snacky)
—after school snack • choose ONE:
✰ peppermint tea: 0 cals
tomato & basil rice cake: 50 cals
gum: 0-5 cals
popcorn: 60-70 cals
~DO NOT FALL INTO TEMPTATION AND HAVE SOMETHING YOU KNOW YOU SHOULDN’T~
—dinner •
~keep it simple, go for what you know is better for you, and if you’re forced to eat something, make the portion SMALL or come up with a really good excuse on why it revolts you~
—dessert • choose between: (NOT ALWAYS)
cookie dough coconut milk ice cream: 190 cals (1/2cup)
yasso bar: 80-100 (FAVS)
fruit w/ yogurt: about 100 cals
★ ★ ★ if you have had under 400 net cals by the end of dinner, you may have dessert. otherwise, no, not by freewill at least.
:I’m literally just making these for myself so i remember but i hate spreading my disordered thoughts with yall 😭 i only want the best for everyone else, i’m okay with suffering lolll

Rating the Diaboys based on how much I trust them to do a coffee run: Sakamaki brothers edition ☕️ ⚰️
(The majority of these headcanons come from the lovely @magnificentkidclamclod and I thank her immensely for being a huge nerd about these idiots with me)
Shu:
2/10
First of all, good luck getting him to walk out the front door
I think the moment you asking him to pick up some coffee for you, he'll just give you the thousand yard gaze
He might go out if you beg him enough…
But there’s a very high possibility that he’ll fall asleep in the café while he waits for your order to be ready
And who knows when he’ll come back once he’s entered sleep mode 🤦🏻
So basically…I hope you like cold coffee…if you get it at all
Reiji:
8/10
He’s reliable af
You want a venti caramel frappe w/ extra caramel drizzle. Etta whipped cream, 6 pumps of butterscotch syrup, 8 pumps of vanilla and double blended at a temperature of 37°F?
Consider it done 🫡
That being said…he might be feeling bored or petty….
Don’t let him feel bored or petty
You’re gonna end up becoming his next Guinea pig for his newest drug 💀
Laito:
9/10
He’s actually a very reliable guy to ask to get you coffee
No, really
He’ll get you EXACTLY what you asked for
The only reason he’s not perfect is cuz he might get distracted and either go shopping or stop to flirt with some people he sees
He might also want a “reward” after he brings you your order…
Wether or not he gets a reward is entirely up to you 😉
Kanato:
-12/10
…..no
Send literally anyone else
Literally go to the café yourself
Do NOT ask him to go on a coffee run
He will 100% attack someone if he didn’t already attack you for asking him to do such a demeaning task
He’s low key that one nightmare customer everyone who works customer service dreads getting…
Just don’t send him
Ever.
Ayato:
4/10
So main problem with him is he’s a bit forgetful
Your order could be as simple as possible and he’s still forget what you wanted
But he’s to prideful to ask you to repeat to him what you wanted
Surely you’ll drink whatever ore-sama orders!
….just drink whatever he brings you and go get your order yourself next time 🤦🏻
Subaru:
10/10
This is the BEST person to send on a coffee run
Yes he’s gonna complain about it, but he’ll get it done ASAP
He’ll memorize your order to the letter just so he can make the process run much more smoothly
Won’t dilly dally, he’s going straight home the second the order reaches his hands
The best delivery boy of the Sakamaki household!

❀ Soft Headcanons: Coffee Shop Edition ❀
✩⟡∵⋰ Miguel x reader(fem)
✩⟡∵⋰ Headcanons for upcoming fic ✩⟡∵⋰
✩⟡∵⋰A/N: This is my first time posting any kind of headcanons, so I hope ya likey! ✩⟡∵⋰
↞✯ 。 .・☼・. 。✯↠
☕️ Miggy definitely has a favorite coffee shop that he goes to, every single day. It’s not a well known business, but the atmosphere and people are good. That’s satisfying enough for someone in need of warmth & comfort
☕️ This man is very picky about his coffee and I refuse to believe anything different. Even if he orders the same simple black coffee everyday, quality and tastes matter over anything else
☕️ After losing his family, venturing to this coffee shop was and is an absolute necessity. Working or being alone in an empty home, filled with vacant memories littering it’s walls, is not an option
❀ This coffee shop is definitely warm, comfortable, and inviting which is what he needs & desires, even if he doesn’t want to admit it
☕️I feel like he enjoys people watching to make up for his lack of a spidey sense. He will study body language, activities, etc to get a better sense of people while he sips his drinks
☕️ When Miggy was younger, he definitely was a coffee connoisseur
❀ He traveled to many different coffee shops, and kept track of the drinks he enjoyed and places he visited
❀ Since he enjoyed doing this so much, he wanted to start a tradition with Gabi, even if his passion for coffee slowly began to diminish
❀ The two would often try various pastries, different ones with every visit, and would try to bake them together when they got back home. Big Messes. Powdered Noses. Lots of fun
☕️ Although he’s a stickler for having exactly what he wants, every single visit, he does attempt to venture out in honor of Gabriela
❀ He will try any drink that reminds him of her and typically picks out something he knows she’d enjoy, or would beg him to buy
❀ He also collects painfully adorable mugs or cups she’d love as well. Even at the cost of being embarrassed, if buying a Hello Kitty tumbler or two means he’s honoring her memory, then he’ll do it
☕️ Miggy comes to this specific coffee shop daily, simply because you make his coffee. Just the way he likes it.
❀ You also provide him with lovely, intelligent, and comforting conversations, which he knows is hard to do when in the face of someone with a hard exterior like his. He appreciates it very much
✩⟡∵⋰ Your shared humor w/ Miggy: ☆Purposefully Corny Jokes ☆Sarcasm ☆ Teasing . Sarcasm is an essential in your friendship & neither of you allow it to become toxic, annoying or demeaning, even when you both get big mad
Thanks for Reading! ♡´・ᴗ・`♡

bono-schumi kiddo thots - godparents edition
once mick and bon’s f1 family find out they are expecting these people are pulling out their credit cards and buying every possible baby item they can set their hands on
kids mini mercedes car? delivered to their house
cute plush they saw at the store? in hand on the way to the register and holding onto it until they see one of them at the next race
the mercedes amg branded stroller and carseat? toto has shown up to their house in the middle of the night to hand deliver it (babe these are real products i just want you to know)
a shit ton of baby tommy hilfiger clothes that are unreleased? lew is folding them and putting it in the new wardrobe he bought for the nursery, before they even woke up (how did he get in?????? [he has a key])
a handmade crib that seb put hours of love into making? he’s setting it up while lew is folding the clothes
a collection of gina’s cowboy hats from her childhood? making space for them in the closet while lew and seb are doing their thing
and it isnt all monetary (even though they get enough items to fully furnish the nursery and have enough toys and clothes for at least another kid and didnt even have to worry about any of the other baby things because their village got it for them already) [seriously they didnt have to buy a damn thing]
like how susie has come over to either cook for them or drop off a dish she’s made
or how the kimi, nando, jensen, seb, lew, etc. come over one day to paint the nursery the color bon and mick have picked out but just haven’t gotten around to painting because of their busy schedules
or how while most of the guys who came over to help paint (how many of these fuckers actually need to be here in order to paint a single room one color?) val has made bon a cup of tea, and a cup of coffee for him to keep her company while mick supervises the painting session
or how lance and esteban will bring over fresh pastry around brunch time, to help in feeding the growing family
and it’s all a bit too much, but they don’t have the heart to tell them to stop so mick and bon just let their family shower their love on them
and bon is a little bit stressed about the whole “who do we put on paper so if anything happens to us they will be taken care of?” situation, but mick reassures her while they are cuddling in bed that there is no wrong answer and he will support whoever she wants to be godparents to their children, while kissing her gently and while sun fills the room they’re occupying
and they eventually land on a consensus
ellie’s godparents are susie and lew
because for one, little miss eloise is named after susie and lew is just so close to bon and she wants him in her daughter's life as much as he has been for her growing up
toto can be an unofficial godparent and i don't feel bad about that because he absolutely just slots himself into the role of grandpa right next to bono. [adding onto this nando absolutely gets called grandpa/abuelo because bon gets a good laugh each time nando reacts to hearing him being referred to as a grandpa.]
mikey’s godparents are gina a seb
seb because again this kid is named after him, but also because we cant leave seb out of being godparent. mick and bon would not let that slide. and then gina cause they also wont let gina not be godparent, and the fact she is mick's sister and bon's sister in law.
yeah people like lance and esteban are close to them, but these four they hold just a smidge closer. but not all is lost because they are very enthusiastically filling the roles of uncles for eloise and mikey. alongside people like val, kimi, jense, etc.
[okay i think im done, hope this made sense and you liked it <3]
☕️
I literally googled "mercedes amg branded stroller" bc I've never seen it before lol kinda cute, toto would def get them one of those
seb building a crib for baby bon is something I can totally see happening and it's such a dear thought to me*teary eyes emoji*
one hundred percent agree and love the godparents choice

Imagine you go on a bookstore date with Steve!! And he wears this, the two of you hold hands as you look at books together!! ✨
Tumblr media
And!! He would always have his arm wrapped around you in some way, bc he’s such a protective bf. You loved it when he led you around the store, his big hand snugly in yours!
He would even offer to buy a few books for you!! He spoiled you so much! BUT. You loved it.
-and!! If you mentioned you’d be cold, he’d take off his scarf and give it to you, wrapping it around you. “Can’t have my sweet girl getting all cold now, can we? Keep that scarf on, baby,” he’d say, with a raised eyebrow, and then plant a few wet kisses on you. He always took good care of you to make sure you’re safe and comfortable!
You just loved running your hands through his amazing hair when you kissed him. He ended up buying a few books for you, and then holding you tightly, his big arms around your little waist, as the two of you crossed the street.
“Can we get some coffee, please!!,” you’d ask him, wrapping your hands around the back of his neck to reach up and kiss him! “Of course sweetheart, just not too much, okay?,” he’d sternly say back to you. And ofc he would buy and order the coffee for you too.
Then, the two of you sat in the corner of that small-town Hawkins coffee shop, completely blissful with each other’s presence. Eventually you’d just read your book while pressing yourself up against him :)
Authors note: Steve brain rot is real. I love him sm. If you like this post, pls help a writer out and reblog ✨🖤🫶🏻🤍🌙🌻🪐☕️📚
Edit: feel free to request more in the asks !! I am looking to do spooky but kinky stories for October 🕷️🕷️

☕️ ko-fi comms open! ☕️
hi folks, i’m a disabled artist from australia and i’m doing kofi comms to help with warming up between bigger projects :-)
i have two types of comms available, pwyw comms (typically some kind of coloured sketch) and custom character designs/adopts. let’s get into it!
Pay What You Want comms
Tumblr media Tumblr media
PWYW comms all come with colour no matter what, and start at $15 USD which will get you something like the above artworks (a bust without shading)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
around $30+ you’ll be upgraded to full body and may have shading added at my discretion (it depends on how much i vibe with your character/prompt)
there is also a possibility i’ll give you a fully rendered painted bust too, or a chibi, etc. so just be aware these are pretty much artistic freedom with minimal input from the client.
custom character designs
there are two types of custom design options, one with a single artwork that’s more polished and one with two artworks that’s more loose.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
these are $40 and you’ll receive a WIP where we can discuss colours/edits etc
Tumblr media Tumblr media
these ones are $60 and typically chibi proportions. you can request to have a front/back view, for one or both to be clothed, or you can DM me beforehand for a quote on a third view of the design for an additional fee.
how to order:
if you have any questions or want to check how much your idea would be, DM me first or email felix(at)honeynuggs.net with your info and any refs/moodboards etc if relevant
when you’re ready go to the link below, pick your desired commission type, fill out the appropriate info and check your desired boxes, then i’ll contact you when i see the notif in my inbox ^^

☕️ + byakuya <3
welcome back mod celeste! i’ve missed you on my feed, i hope your break has treated you well :)
also congrats on your milestone!! it’s been so amazing to watch you grow, im v proud of you! you deserve all the love <33
have fun with this event! 🍰
Thank you so much for your patience and love! It's so wonderful to return to this blog of mine. Ironically, I'm drinking tea as I post this, haha. Without any further ado, here's your request!
-Mod Celeste
Tumblr media
200+ Follower Event: Byakuya + Coffeeshop AU!
-He is a bit of a coffee snob, of course. I firmly believe he'd have visited every café in Japan, and he would DEFINITELY tell you his thoughts on them.
-Even with his vast knowledge on the pleasant drink, he had his regular haunts. Particularly, yours!
-You'd been a barista for a while, just as a part-time job. It was in a busy part of town where visitors of all types came in.
-When Byakuya first visited, you were taken aback? Wasn't he in that magazine's "40 under 40" article last week? Time's Person of the Year??
-He saw your shock and replied in his trademark snark: "Close your gaping mouth, will you? Honestly, the way you people react to people of nobility is unsettling, to say the least."
-He then proceeded to order the most obnoxious drink you'd ever make. But hey, for the best tip of the day? Who cared.
-Surprisingly, he continued to visit fairly often. Ordering a different drink each time, you couldn't figure anything out about this hoity-toity guy. He usually ordered, waited with an impatient expression, and left briskly.
-But as time went on, you began to ask him little questions like "what's the plan today, Mr. CEO?" or "what brings you to our little establishment?" In joking tones.
-He's great at dishing out sarcasm, but not reading it, so he definitely told you all about his new business pitch or his thoughts on your coffee. The fact he answered at all though means you got through to him!
-Eventually, he began to linger. Taking a seat in the corner, reading a complex novel. Was that a glance your way? No, you must be seeing things.
-You couldn't help but find his reserved awkwardness a bit endearing. On a day where you were fetching something from the back and your coworker was at the counter, he'd request "his usual barista, the one with the... cute name tag."
-You'd emerge, weirdly flattered? And playfully ask him "is it really that cute? It's just a plain old name tag,"
-The blonde had never been so caught off guard. "Erm... well, forget about that. I simply needed a way to get you out here," He replied, blush evident across his face.
- "For what?"
- "How would you feel about being my..." He paused, and recollected himself. "My personal barista, of course. The pay and benefits would surely justify the position to you, and--"
-You smiled. "So, is dating the boss against the rules, or is that maybe one of these aforementioned benefits?" A laugh left your lips.
-Congratulations: you have just won Byakuya Togami's heart.
Edit: I just noticed Tumblr messed up the formatting of the post!! Oh my goodness. Reposting to adjust the order of paragraphs, CORRECTLY this time. The whole last part of it made no sense before... how in the world did that happen? -post-production Mod Celeste

☕️ for the birthday twins and 🧥 for any story you want.
Thanks for asking! Your order, madam…
☕ coffee or tea: describe your OC’s favorite place to relax.
Trust you to ask the coffee question!
Jim likes to relax in the garden, especially at the hives or in the shed, with the sun shine through the window or rain tapping on the roof, and a stick of charcoal in his hand.
Ethel thinks that relaxing is a waste of time. She feels at ease on a broom, but wouldn’t be able to relax if she tried.
🧥 warm coat: share a happy or fuzzy scene from your wip!
The WIP I’m working on atm is Y7 of the Saga. Here’s a brief and particularly FUZZY extract from the chapter I’ll be editing tomorrow:
“Is that your Puffskein, Artemis? Can we play with it?”
Artemis shrugged. “Sure. Why not?”
Bea and her friend went to pick up Puffskein-Merula, who puffed up her fur, bared her teeth, and growled at them. The two younger girls squealed with delight.
“Oh, my goodness!” said Bea’s friend, both her hands placed to her cheeks. “It’s so cute!”

hi acey, talk about steddie ☕️
STEDDIE!!!!!!!!!!
do you know where i'm going to start? I'm going to start with the fact that i have had steve down as bisexual since season fucking 1 and i did not ship him with a canon male character on the show until eddie. that's right. i don't ship steve with like any other guy but eddie but he's a bisexual king. ok.
the thing is i went into the season not wanting to like eddie bc 1) i thought he was going to be like a metaler/nerdier billy and i had enough of billy ok. enough. but then joseph quinn made me fucking fall in love with him and i was like oh ok, i get why there was steddie love before we knew steddie. y'all saw something there. and then joseph fucking quinn decided to improv big boy and joe fucking keery had to make that face. steve.exe had stopped working and had a slight sexuality crisis, didn't he?
i think there's a lot of issues with some steddie that i have read which is why I'm incredibly choosy about what I'm reading. i find that a lot of the time steve is ooc. he fucks. in canon. he talks about it in 4x01, nancy is not the last person he slept with. he smokes weed. i made the edit of the quote that i say is evidence. i've made the edit of it. i know what i'm talking about. i feel like people polarize on this, make him clueless and more stupid than he actually is (there are different types of intelligence and shit steve has intelligence in some areas i can't believe they made him call himself stupid shut up baby you're nOT) and it's like he's not a lightweight, he's not a virgin. yes, maybe you could argue that he's new and clueless about being with a guy if you're writing eddie as his awakening or whatever, but he still knows what he's doing with other things.
also!! i'm of the mind that eddie isn't like a sex god or anything. so i love the idea of them being kinda intimidated with intimate moments and just kind of fumbling and laughing their way through it. so i don't usually look for steddie bc there's a lot of smut that's not that and i am a simple person of simple taste. I'm not going to say i don't read some filthy shit from time to time, i really do, i really enjoy it. but if I'm being honest with myself i like fluff or emotional angst more than reading smut. nothing against it tho lmao that's my point
as a ship, i love them, i adore them. i also like the idea of them in a platonic sense and just this idea of them having this bond over dustin. and being like older brother/father figures for him. there's this idea that they both would have done the same thing that eddie did (you know. the rope) for dustin. I'm not going to go into my death theory bc that's not the point acey. anyway i like them as friends who actively try to protect one another. tho i think steve is more of a fighter for protection rather than eddie's willingness to put himself as a shield in order to protect.
send me a topic + ☕️ emoji and i’ll tell my honest opinion about it!

Super Mayhem: Paladin’s Oath
🌟 Are we ready to begin?
☕️ Yes, yes. The mic’s on. Just get going with it already, the potential enjoyment coefficient generated by heat within my coffee is surely dropping.
🌟 So… your coffee’s getting cold?
☕️ YES! Just do it already!
🌟 Of course! Salutations my viewers! I, Madeline Cookie, will be your guide to the new and improved form of Crème Republic training: Super Mayhem! A few things have changed from the first two seasons from the end of last year, so we’ll start from the very beginning.
You will need three teams of Cookies to participate, complete with five valiant Cookies and three shining Treasures! Be advised that these teams will participate in offense AND defense! While you’re offline, the teams you create will appear on opponents’ challenger lists to defend your honor!
Treasures can be equipped to multiple teams if you wish, but Cookies cannot hold position in more than one team. This will allow you to have a team of fifteen unique combatants to participate in the festivities, ha ha!
Likewise, when choosing your team, all Kingdom Arena rules apply. You can have up to three Super Epic, Ancient, and Legendary Cookies on any one team. Any more, and this would be more of a one-sided spectacle of legends than a show of training!
Don’t fret, my friend. Even though you can have up to three beyond-Epic Cookies on one team, the Cookies counted on one team will not count against the limit imposed on the others! Arrange a new squad of legendary champions on your other teams and hone their skills even further!
Tumblr media
Once you have your teams set, now is the time to choose an opponent! Choose one of three challengers and study their formations. Use the tactics you’ve learned thus far to further edit your teams and their order of battle accordingly so your team can best the other in battle- whoa!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
⚙️ Yeah, I know these screenshots show an unfair matchup. These guys are just the tutorial! Crush them on the testing grounds and take their Mayhem Trophies to move up the Leagues! The further you go, the stronger your opponents!
🌟 Well said, Strawberry Crepe. Ascend the leagues to claim rewards like EXP Star Jellies, Consul’s Emblems, Time Jumpers, and even the Celestial Gryphon to grace your Arena Statue’s podium! Ascend to the Master’s League to claim it! It surely stands as a symbol of honor, perhaps reminiscent of some the Republic’s finest? The further you go, the less you will know about your opponents, as certain details will be hidden from view until the battle! This is where your intuition and knowledge of tried-and-true tactics comes into play!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🌟 But now that preparation has passed, now is the time for battle. Your team will face theirs until one side falters, and each round lasts 60 seconds each. The longer the round lasts, the stronger everyone’s damage output becomes!
All Cookies have more HP than before, but their healing is withheld somewhat.
Pay close attention here, because here is the primary change from before. This is no longer the endurance contest you once fought. Once a victor in a bout has been determined, the winners of the bout withdraw and the next two teams face each other. This means the teams each player designates as their 1st teams will face each other in the first bout, then the 2nd teams will face off in the second bout, and the 3rd teams will fight the third round tiebreaker if necessary.
The player to win two out of the three bouts will achieve total victory! If one side achieves their victorious duo by round 2, the third bout will be aborted and the winner declared. If the attacker wins, they will be showered with Mayhem Trophies and Medals of Victory to spend in the Kingdom Arena’s Medal Shop!
In that shop, you can find provisions to bolster your own realm and your own Cookies, as well as soulstones of truly Epic Cookies in addition to some of the greatest Ancient Heroes to ever walk Earthbread! You can even find soulstones for our consul Clotted Cream Cookie, priced at 400 Medals for one stone. Although you can only buy one, this option will persist every time the shop restocks so everyone can behold his splendor!
Tumblr media
At season’s end, you will receive a final reward based on the league you reached plus a bonus reward for how well your guild ranks! May the glow of the Celestial Light guide you to victory! Yes, reach for the new Grandmaster League!
☕️ Yes, that’s wonderful and whatnot, but you can also accelerate gameplay playback during Super Mayhem up to 2.5x speed. This gameplay multiplier is also enabled for Cookie Alliance and the Tropical Soda Islands. These modes are somewhat known for being mundanely slow, in case you haven’t caught on.
Oh, and one more thing. For the time being while the Editor gets his bearings on his remaining (some being outdated) drafts and current events, we will be closing our inbox to off-topic asks. Gameplay asks will be answered in due time, but off-topic questions will not be prioritized. Thank you for your patience.
