okay so in middle school his parents made him take piano so he can kind of help with reading sheet music if ur struggling with it
sooo encouraging!! he loves hearing u play and will literally applaud u. even if u play just like. twinkle twinkle little star or something he's so whipped and he just thinks you're amazing <3
has an entire sketchbook thats just filled up with drawings and sketches of you playing the violin. he'll sit and watch you practice and think, she looks so pretty. and BAM sketchbook is out and you're now his muse :]
.𖥔 ݁ ˖ EARTH-42 ! MILES MORALES
woooahhhhh he's impressed!!! liek, very very impressed!! bc your fingers r moving so fast and does your wrist not hurt and is it hard to make sure youre playing the notes right and not screeching???
after going out and doing his prowler thingy, he loves coming home to hear you practicing whatever piece you're learning
its v calming to him!
whenever ur away and ur violin is out, he'll like. put rosin on ur bow, clean off any smudges, organize ur sheet music, literally just be cute and make life easier for u!!
omg and on the topic of him spoiling his gf, him buying you violin related things? little charms, earrings with violins on them, stuff like that <3
.𖥔 ݁ ˖ PAVITR PRABHAKAR
literally!! your biggest!! mfing!!! supporter!!! does NAWT give a shit if your violin is out of tune (like mine rn ughhhh) or if it was screechy or if you messed up he thinks u did amazing and he'll gonna tell you!
"my angel, you were amazing!! it sounded so magical <3"
i feel like pav knows how to play an instrument, and for ... purposes (😊) that instrument is the viola >:)
he'll listen to whatever your playing and then he learns it for himself on his viola. so he can surprise you!!!
i think violas have some different notes? (idk im not a violist lmao) so he does have a bit of trouble when he reads off your sheet music but he figures it out pretty quickly!
omg him doing duets w you!! he forces hobie and miles and gwen to watch ur impromptu recitals and glares at them until they clap

Oatly Madness: The Alternative Oak Milk Spreading Around NYC Cafes
New York, New York. As the song goes, if you can make it here, you can make it dairy-free.
Wait, that isn’t how the song goes?
That’s news to Oatly, a Swedish-born alternative milk derived from oats that’s quickly taken hold among the most esteemed coffee bars in the five boroughs. In a city where every single element of business is competitive and “extra” shelf space is nonexistent, the rapid-fire spread of oat milk—of all things—across the city’s finer coffee bars is steaming up the scene.
“It’s been really surprising for us, too,” Mike Messersmith, United States General Manager for the Oatly brand told me over oat milk cortados one sunny Sunday in Manhattan’s Flatiron district. Since January of 2017, Oatly—specifically Oatly Barista, a creamy, coffee-optimized version of Oatly designed for steaming and serving in hot drinks—has gone from being served in only a dozen cafes to being available in more than 200 of the city’s coffee shops. From early adopters like Intelligentsia (which serves the alternative milk in its cafes nationally), Oatly’s been picked up by local chains like Café Grumpy, Joe Coffee Company, and Ninth Street Espresso, as well as many companies with smaller footprints like Sey Coffee, Kaffe 1668, Everyman Espresso, Cafe Integral, and Little Skips.
An oat milk cappuccino at Sey Coffee, Brooklyn.
If you just read off the names of some of the city’s best-respected cafes, there’s a reason for that. The company’s oat penetration strategy—to send friendly reps to all the city’s best coffee shops with free samples over and over and over—seems to have worked. It’s a gamble that the company, well-established in Sweden for more than two decades, could afford to make.
“The company wanted to wait until it felt like we were ready,” says Messersmith, who along with a small team has spearheaded Oatly’s grand entrance into the US market. The company already sells Oatly—in countless varieties from chai to chocolate milk to cream to “oatgurt”—in more than 30 countries globally, with its largest presence in the EU. To expand to North America, Messersmith says, the oat mogul felt it would be critical to gain a foothold in the barista community before large chains or grocery stores.
“It was a choice for us to try to pursue on-premise specialty coffee first,” Messersmith tells me. “Oat milk doesn’t exist for US consumers, as opposed to Sweden. We felt like we had a lot of work to do.”
Messersmith keeps a sense of humor about it all. “I mean, a lot of people, even my family, are still like, what? Oats? Explain that to me again?”
By and large, the city’s baristas have embraced it, largely because their customer base likes it, too. Jenna Gotthelf, a barista at Everyman Espresso admits, “As a consumer, I don’t really drink alternative milks.” But as a barista, finds her guests enjoy the product. “Customers have been asking for it,” says Gotthelf, “and enjoying it more than almond or soy milk. The Oatly brand steams nicely, so it is easy to work with.”
Oat farming in Sweden.
Though the romantic notion of drinking exotic, creamy Swedish oats may appeal, US Oatly is derived more locally—from oats grown in the Western United States and Canada, and manufactured into oat milk at a shared factory in Minnes—oat—a. “Oats are an incredibly sustainable rotational crop,” says Messersmith, “they bring crop diversity to those parts of the country. As opposed to some plant-based milks that are very taxing, oats use less water and fewer pesticides,” he says, arguing that oat farming has less environmental impact than many other alternative milks, like recently-maligned soy and almond milk.
What’s the downside, then? Some drinkers wary of the stabilizing agents that most plant milks use may balk at the inclusion of canola oil on Oatly Barista’s ingredients list. Messersmith says that the oil is not used as a thickener—which isn’t apparently needed due to what he refers to as an “amazing enzymatic process”—but rather to add creaminess. They use a non-GMO canola oil, and it makes up about 2% of the product by volume.
Among the Swedish oats
What it all adds up to in the cup is a neutral but creamy dairy substitute that’s muscled its way into those tightly packed New York cafe refrigerators—in some cases, kicking its sister soy milk off menus completely. For any coffee product to cause such a ruckus with such speed is unusual—in New York, it’s practically unheard of—and even tea professionals, who rarely agree on anything, seem to like it, too. Doug Palas, who runs Intelligentsia’s Kilogram Tea, says Oatly “accentuates tea flavors better than milk—it’s my default recommendation for tea drinks.”
Next up, the brand will continue to sow its oats in markets like Milwaukee, Denver, and of course, Los Angeles, whose artisanal alternative milk scene leads the nation. “The coffee industry in the US is really so connected,” concludes Messersmith of Oatly’s speedy growth. “When [baristas] find a brand they are passionate about that really gets them and delivers on that end product they care about, then…it’s really about facilitating, not pushing.”
“When the product’s really good,” he says, “it’s just—be cool, and don’t screw it up.”

CON FLORES (TE LLEVASTE MI TRISTEZA) .𖥔 ݁ ˖ pavitr prabhakar
Tumblr media
fem ! hispanic ! reader angst -> fluff 0.8k words — a/n: pav is so cute i love him<3 also shout out to ivy for helping with the one (1) line of hindi !!! love u ives
Tumblr media
you had been having a shitty day, to say the least.
first, your alarm hadn't gone off, causing you to only have 15 minutes to get ready. buttoning your shirt up, you searched the room looking for your bag, seeing it unpacked in the corner. just great. after shoving your notebooks into the bag and zipping it up halfway, you slipped on your uniform skirt and hastily laced your shoes before taking a final cursory glance at the mirror.
there was a tear in the blue fabric of your skirt. small enough that it wasn't really an issue, but big enough that it was noticeable. deciding to fix it when you got home, you rushed down the stairs and passed by the kitchen, grabbing your lunch bag as you hustled through your house.
"chao, mami! te veo mas tarde!" (bye, mom! i'll see you later) you called over your shoulder. your mother rolled her eyes at your hurriedness and waved you off with a smile.
then, as you made your way to the bus stop, some idiot bumped into you, causing you to nearly topple over.
"watch where you're going, cabron!" (bastard) you shouted.
you sighed and got on the crowded bus. you spotted your friend sitting way in the back, but the only empty seat was right in the front, behind the driver. frowning, you shrugged at her and slid into the seat. pulling your headphones on, you scrolled through your playlist till you found a song you liked, and rested your forehead on the window, watching the city go by.
the bus all of a sudden stopped, lurching forward. the doors hissed open and the driver called out the school stop. you and about ten other people got up and started pushing towards the door. finally getting out of the stifling bus, you shoved your way through the crowd and entered the school.
a few hours later, at lunch, you spotted your friends all sitting at a table together. there weren't any free seats. your heart felt heavy as you sat down at an empty table across the lunch room. unfortunately, your friends were directly in your line of sight. even over the loud din of the lunchroom, you could hear them laughing and gossiping as they ate their lunches. sighing, you opened your lunch bag to see . . . nothing. there was absolutely nothing in your lunch. at first, you thought your mom had just forgotten to pack you something, but you distinctly remembered the bag being heavy with food when you left the house. then, you remembered the person that bumping into you on your way to the bus.
you dropped your head into your hands and squeezed your eyes shut. que dia tan mal, (what a bad day) you thought. your stomach grumbled, complaining about the lack of delicious food it was promised.
the rest of the day passed in a blur. a horrible, messed up blur. you had failed a your algebra test, you had nearly failed your science project, you had sat alone at lunch, and you had gone basically the whole day being ignored by everyone. it was like you were invisible.
once you get home, your mom asks, "que tal tu dia?" (how was your day?) you just shrug in response and stomp up the stairs to your room. shutting the door, you slid down till you hit the floor and you bring your knees into your chest. resting your head between them, you felt hot tears pricking at your eyes. squeezing your eyes, you feel a few of them escape and drop down onto the floor.
all of a sudden, a knock interrupts the sobs racking through your body. you raise your head and turn it towards the door, but the knock comes again, from the window.
wiping your tears away, you go and open the blinds, seeing pavitr standing on the tiny ledge outside. he was holding a colorful bouquet of flowers in his hand and was gripping onto the window sill with the other. he smiles, but then seeing your tearstained face, it turns into a pout.
you unlatch the window and raise it up, watching him climb into your room. he gently places the flowers on your desk and immediately envelopes you in his arms. the tears come back, flowing freely now.
"oh, my angel," he whispers. he presses a kiss to your head and holds you tighter. "what's wrong?"
through sobs, you explain the horrid day you'd had. pav nods and frowns. leading you over to your bed, he wraps his arms around you again. "i'm sorry, my love."
shrugging, you pull away for a moment to wipe a few tears off your face. pav lowers your hands and then places his own on your face, wiping under your eyes. his own eyes are looking in yours, filled with love and concern.
"i brought flowers," he whispers. with a small, teary laugh, you smile at your boyfriend.
"i saw. thank you, mi amor." he freezes, as he usually does when you call him anything in spanish.
"of— of course," he stammers. sighing, he pulls you into a kiss. with that kiss, he makes you forget all the shitty things that had happened to you today. he's wrapping you up in love and reminding you that he's there, he cares.
"te amo."
"mein tumse pyar kartha hu." (i love you)

FROM THE START ✿ p. prabhakar
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
— confess i've loved you from the start . . .
-> angst to fluff, 0.8k words, fem ! hispanic ! reader
Tumblr media
pavitr prabhakar had always been a ray of sunshine. he was always affectionate with his friends and family, always smiling and laughing.
it was that smile that made you fall in love first. the first day you had seen him, you were eleven years old. you had been sitting alone at recess on the swings, watching every other kid run around the playground. a boy had come up to you and smiled.
"do you want me to push you?" he offered. he looked about your age, with brown eyes and shiny hair that fell perfectly into place. your heart skipped a beat and you nodded.
as he pushed you, he laughed and asked what your name was.
"y/n," you replied. "i just moved here."
"really? that's so cool! i'm pavitr prabhakar, and i've lived here my whole life." you could practically hear the smile in his voice.
after that, you two had become inseparable. your family loved him and his auntie absolutely adored you. the two of you spent hours together working on homework, laughing at inside jokes, teasing each other out of love. it seemed that his love was more on the platonic side though, compared to the way you felt towards him.
it was as if every time he talked to you, cupid would waltz into the room, nock an arrow, and aim directly for your heart. there were times that you felt like you had to tell him how you felt. how the light catching in his eyes, turning them to melted gold, made you want to pull him close. how the way he laughed was so charming you were sure any fairytale princess would have ditched her prince for him.
and sometimes, sometimes it felt like he might feel the same. the lingering touches, the way he gazed at you, the way he always was there for you.
but soon enough you realized that the longing gazes weren't meant for you.
too often you glanced behind you to see her. gayatri singh. now, you had nothing against her. she had been partnered up with you multiple times for projects, and she was incredibly nice. she was caring and smart, and she was gorgeous. it seemed like the whole world knew it. including pav.
one night, the two of you were sitting on the roof of your apartment building, eating some empanadas your mother had made.
you and pav had been sitting in a comfortable silence for a while, chewing on the delicious food, when he swallowed hard and asked you something.
"you're good with advice, right?" he glanced at you, and your heart skipped a beat.
swallowing, you shrugged. "depends on the kind of advice you want."
he put his plate down next to him, and you could see him start to fidget with the hem of his shirt. "so. uh. theres this..." he paused, taking a breath and exhaling into the starry sky. "there's this girl."
it took every ounce of your willpower not to express your disappointment. "oh?"
"yeah," he chuckled softly. "she's... the most amazing person i've ever known. and you know, i want to ask her out, but... i don't know if she'd say yes."
your heart sank down into your stomach and kept sinking till it reached the core of the earth. "well, i mean, why wouldn't she say yes?" you forced yourself to smile and playfully nudged his shoulder with your own. "any girl would be lucky to have you, chamo."
"that's the thing. she's just so incredible and i don't think.. i don't think she feels the same about me. ever since i met her i've had this big crush on her... she's so freaking pretty and smart and witty and kind and just." he sighed, reaching up to tug on a strand of his hair, a nervous habit that he'd picked up when he was thirteen.
you blinked back tears. without thinking, you took a sip of your drink and blurted out, "it's gayatri, isn't it?"
his head whips around to face you, big brown eyes wide. "gaya- gayatri? no! why would i have a crush on her?" he stammered. "i mean, she's great and all but... she's not.. it's not her."
you turned away, staring down at the traffic below. cars filled up every inch of the road, lights reflecting off of all the surrounding buildings. "oh... i thought it was her," you murmur. you feel pav's hand cover your own.
"y/n," he whispers. "look at me." slowly, heart pounding, you turn to face him.
your lips are centimeters apart. your gaze flickered to his soft looking lips and back up into his beautifully dark eyes.
"it's you. it's always been you," he breathed.
"me?"
"you. from the start, it was always you."

pav is constantly touching you, when he can. holding your hand, an arm around your waist or your shoulders, linked pinkies, all of it. he always always greets u with a hug and a kiss. loves cuddles and will absolutely take a nap with you with ur legs intertwined and your head on his chest. loves holding you, it makes him feel like he's protecting you ♡

my boy loves spending time with you!! whether its taking a nap together, study dates, or doing nothing at all and sitting in silence, he loves it. he will gladly sit quietly and watch you do your makeup or work on homework because he's with you!! life can't get any better!!
WORDS OF AFFIRMATION .𖥔 ݁ ˖
oooh boy. this guy is the KING of words of affirmation. literally whenever he sees you the first thing out of his mouth is something along the lines of "you look amazing today!" because he just thinks you're gorgeous ((u are😊)). he always compliments you and just likes telling you that you're the best thing in his life and how much he loves you and that he wants to spend the rest of his life with u !!!
