✿Oh, you thought this was my place? Sorry, you must have the wrong monster in mind. Welcome to Grillby's, what can I get you?✿

Thought I'd make a list of some useful websites for those of us who enjoy roleplaying and what have you here on Tumblr and whatnot.
roleplay formatter: Made by the awesome @rpclefairy. I honestly can't recommend this one enough. Great for adding color, changing the font size, and the whole shebang with bold + italics + underline + strikethrough. 10/10 always use
fsymbols + emojipedia: These are both great for making your tags fancy and whatnot.
alt codes: This is genuinely great for teaching you how to make the symbols with your keyboard for everyday use so there's that. It's especially useful if you and/or your muses speak a second language so that's a bonus.
text color fader: *marge vc* I just think gradient effects on text is neat. *end marge vc*
list of colors (wikipedia): Has a list of an infinite number of colors and their hex codes. Very useful if I do say so, myself. But that's just me.
screencapped.net: Great for getting all sorts of screenshots for making icons, GFXs, promos, and whatnot.
fancaps.net: Also great for getting all sort of screencaps for making icons, GFXs, promos, and whatnot. My only complaint is that it's a little annoying to navigate so here's the proper links to movies, tv shows, and anime.
photopea: Great if you can't afford Photoshop and/or don't like using GIMP.
hakuneko: It's not so much a website as much as it is a program. You can download manga, comics, webtoons, doujinshi, etc. for making your icons, GFXs, promos, and whatnot. It's also just a great way to read stuff and catch up on everything.
Sir thats raw cookie dough.
A finished commission for @profoundlytenaciousgalaxy of their character Grape and @bcrnt-petcls 's Maple backing a batch of cookies!
Listen- is it considered raw dough if it cooks the second you bite it-
Maple watches Grape with goofy grin, letting his chin fall onto the palm of his hand while he waited for her to finish stirring. His eyes crinkle at the corners with poorly-hidden amusement as she makes the cutest face he's ever seen. If he were in one of those cartoons that children speak of these days, he's sure his eye sockets would be heart-shaped. Not that he minds.
"It's great. Now we simply must shape the cookies and let them cook. I'll get the cutters." He takes the bowl from Grape's hands, making sure to grasp the back of her hand and pull it to his lips for what he thinks might be a charming kiss. A wink is added for good measure, and then he lets it go before heading over to the baking drawer. He pulls out a set of cookie cutters, one rather charming rendition of a Whimsum, and the other a fierce looking Gyftrot.
Then, with a rolling pin and some cinnamon, he plops out the cookie dough onto the counter. "Now we shape," he says, offering a cookie outline.
The flame crackled from the kiss. Grape was generally up for a challenge, so she observed the bowl. While she may been quietly standing guard, she had been observing. It was through Maple that she was coaxed out of her hiding. She was far more comfortable at home out of public prying eyes.
She honestly thought that she was lucky to have him but didn't have a chance to voice it. Stirring was something she can do, however. Once the bowl was secured, she used the spoon she saw Maple use earlier to stir. Cooking had been a new thing to learn for her as she put into practice what she saw, unaware of her concentration face with a little tongue sticking out.
"Is this good?" She then asked once she was certain the bowl was mixed and that she was starting to have difficulty stirring. She tilted the bowl slightly for him to get a better look.
// 17. what are some of the signs that your muse shows their care/love without saying they love/care about their partner?
romance & relationship headcanons!
Mara is a bit of a stress baker, admittedly. This is both in part due to the fact that stress literally raises her core temperature, and she has a penchant for sweets! A pleasant benefit is that she now makes a mean loaf of sourdough. One of her favorite ways to show that she cares about someone is to make them food that will last, usually a good loaf of HOPE-infused bread.

I can't do any post chopping right now, so sorry if the threads are a bit messy!
Truly agonizing.
somehow Tumblr mobile has Gotten Worse. I'm not sure when, I'm not sure how. It's not even a big UI change. But I can smell it.
there are so many drafts written and ready to go!!! Woe, I miss my laptop. Once I can get my tags on here I'll send them out! Only a few of my tags are readily available and it's painful.
"Nonsense," Maple replies, gently pressing the bloom into the human's hand. His fingers glance against her palm, but the touch is light and simply warm, as if one were to hover their hand over a steaming pot of soup or water.
*+80 HP
"To heal is not a waste," he continues, the magic sinking through Dria's skin with a soft, warm feeling. The elemental pulls away, maintaining what most would consider a polite but concerned distance. "Now, if you could begin to walk with us? I believe we have some solid food in the healer's tent for more beastly Monsters, so it will hopefully suit you."
Orchid watches the exchange warily, hand resting on the pommel of her blade. As much as she trusts that the human is frail, she has seen the true desperation of those on their last dregs of energy. However, she makes no sudden movement, staying true to her oath of asylum. There is no judgement in her eyes either as Maple heals the human, simply a grim determination and cold resolve that makes even her lilac flame seem chilling at best. { Brother, be more careful, } she chides, though for once there is no real anger in her voice. He simply rolls his eyes and crackles with mild amusement.
"Yes, yes. Being careful," he replies in the common tongue, waving a hand. It's clearly an exchange the two have had time and time again, and the air noticeably cools to a comfortable temperature.
"If I might ask. Why do those humans loathe you so? And do you have a name to be called by? You may call me Captain Orchid, or simply Captain. Either will suffice." Orchid states, gesturing the way forward so that Dria might walk in front of them. More screams echo out from the forest, human and terrified. She pays them no mind.
Maple's brow furrows, and he remains still even as the human flinches away. Standing as they do, his hand still remains outstretched as if to take theirs. Gently, he rebuts their fearful refusal. "I will not burn you. If there is anything that I am good at, it is controlling flames and healing burns. It's one of the first things we have to learn, really," he says, letting a hint of humor fall into his tone.
How strange, that they're able to stand so quickly. Is it perhaps their magic? He hasn't had enough opportunity to study humans and their magic, much less on a medical perspective.
{She is more ocean than blood,} he murmurs to his sister in their native tongue, though all the human might hear is the sound of a crackling campfire and sizzling coals. Orchid frowns, and responds in kind. { I think she is branded with something. Is it the burn she speaks of? I did not know burns could be used in such a way. Despicable, the lot of them. }
"My name is Maple," the green elemental offers to the human. "I am a healer, and sworn to do no harm to those I aid."
Orchid quickly interrupts, {And I took no such-} before being silenced with a sharp glare from her younger brother. She sighs, and rolls her eyes. "As a prisoner, you are offered asylum. By my authority as a Captain of the Royal Army, no harm shall come to you if you remain peaceful." She shoots back another glare at Maple, who looks somewhat pleased by this turn of events. {There. Happy? You're so soft.}
"I have no need to bind you. I do not want to risk injuring you by weighing you down with manacles," Maple continues, gesturing towards the encampment. "Though, I hope you understand that my sister is quick on her feet, hm?"
Orchid snorts, smoke escaping her mouth in an amused huff. "We will not touch you unless you allow us to. Since you are under asylum. And because my brother is a sap, who forgets we are at war."
Maple eyes the human once more as he ignores Orchid and frowns. Are they meant to look so pale? Perhaps it is that lack of blood that the CHECK mentioned. "I understand you fear of it, but my magic is controlled by intention. Would it help if I... hm." He clenches his outstretched hand into a fist, and when it reopens a green, ethereal lotus blossom is held within. "This is a healing magic, shaped in a less... fiery shape. Would you allow me to give it to you?"
