It's about like.
Willow fought to be seen as strong, because she is and for a very long time people not only convinced her that she wasn't, but that a lack of strength correlated to a lack of worth. And because of this past of having to prove herself and rediscover who she is and could be, Willow accidentally internalized the idea that others perception of her as strong is conditional on her always succeeding despite the obstacles, always staying in control and on top of things, always being the shoulder to cry on, etc etc.
And to an extent, she was right! Amity (unintentionally and well meaningly) refused to acknowledge willow's strength, leading to her having to prove herself, Boscha takes great pleasure in pointing out the chinks in willow's armour because Boscha feels better about herself when someone else is beneath her and she most often makes Willow that target. These are examples in which someone (correctly) paints Willow as pretending to be strong, but act like if they peeled back that facade, all you'd be left with is weak, half a witch willow. Whereas Hunter and Gus understand that even if you peel back willow's front of strength to see the more vulnerable side of her, there's still a strong foundation that takes little time in getting back into the swing of things once she's let it all out. Willow can be reliable and have debilitating anxiety. She can be whiney and needy and still be brave and powerful. Reliable people need someone to rely on too.
Willow's arc in labyrinth runners meant a lot to me because being consistently told that you are weak and need the help of people who love you but who struggle to understand you and see past their own need to protect you, by those people hit close to home and was incredibly validating to see. Somebody once compared the writing of those interactions to microaggressions, and intentional or not it resonated with me bc of that I think.
And now willow's arc in FTF completes this in a way that's very viscerally satisfying to me. Because proving your worth to people, no matter how successfully you do so, takes such a toll on your own mental well being and self perception. Bottling up your emotions so you don't drag others down is so difficult. And you deserve to cry like a big fucking baby if you've been doing this. Let it out!
For the future is an episode about being seen and heard, so to have Willow be so thoroughly seen and heard not just by the people who understand her best within the show, but also by the writers and consequently the audience is just.
It's what she deserves. And I love her very much

My translyrics for Salamander, written out under the cut :D
This one was much more difficult than the last, but I'm still very satisfied with it! 😤 I'm both sad that my version lost a lot of the fun soundplay of the original, and also waaay more impressed with the lyrics and vocals after digging it like this! I tried to keep it balanced between the original and Fuuta's version, though maybe it ended up leaning more toward the cover, idk. Leaving my specific notes in the tags 👍
Salamander~ Hot's nice, don't you agree? This pa- passion's fine, see?
"But" isn't what I wanna hear, so say "more" loud and clear.
It's heating up all through my mind when I'm with you.
I want a taste, but all this spice may prove more than I can take, (eh?)
Something's on your mind. So spit it out and tell me, don't waste my time, kay?
I'm hooked on this, pass me a dish.
The way I'm starving here without you -- it's a crime
A spicy treat, put on repeat,
Can I get seconds with the same heat? One more time!
Salamander~ Hot's nice, don't you agree? This pa- passion's fine, see?
"But" isn't what I wanna hear, so say "more" loud and clear.
It's heating up all through my mind when I'm with you.
I can't stop anything, although I wouldn't want to stop, oh no --
Take a breath, it's best to cool down or you earn yourself a burn.
I want a bite, I can't help giving in to this new appetite.
Again, again, I want to be on fire when I get to the end.
We live too fast, we burn to ash,
I never handled spices well and it's a crime.
A spicy treat, put on repeat,
Can I get seconds with the same heat? One more time!
I want to burn bright red
I want to burn bright red
Salamander~ Hot's nice, don't you agree? This pa- passion's fine, see?
"But" isn't what I wanna hear, so say "more" loud and clear.
Tell me I'm not alone in my mind!
Salamander~ Look what's happened to me. This pa- passion's crazy
Tell me I'm not delirious, I'm being serious.
It's heating up all through my mind when I'm with you.
I can't stop anything, although I wouldn't want to stop, oh no --
Take a breath, it's best to cool down or you earn yourself a burn.
I want to leave I want to go, but I can never stop, oh no --
Take a breath, it's best to cool down or you earn yourself a burn.

Black Widow, Winter Soldier, and WinterWidow reading list
I made this list for another post, but I thought I'd put it here too.
Black Widow (1999) by Devin Grayson - Natasha's first solo. It's only three issues, and it's the start of modern Black Widow. It introduces important aspects of her character, like the Red Room. Yelena is introduced for the first time.
Black Widow (2001) by Devin Grayson - Another three-issue comic, which I thought was a fun read. It's a Natasha, Yelena, and Matt team-up comic. It's a part of Marvel Knights, which told more mature and darker stories so I have a soft spot for the 1999 and 2001 runs for this reason.
Black Widow: Pale Little Spider (2002) by Greg Rucka - Another three-issue comic. While not focused on Natasha, it's a Yelena solo. It's part of the Max comics line, which was an attempt to tell adult-only stories, and it definitely shows because Yelena visits a bondage sex club. A very important comic for Yelena.
Black Widow: Homecoming (2004) by Richard K. Morgan - I think this comic was extremely influential for modern Black Widow. A lot of her mythos originated from this comic. The movie took a lot of inspiration from this comic as well, like the pheremones thing.
Black Widow: The Things They Say About Her (2005) by Richard K. Morgan - This one is decent. It's not entirely important, but I think it's worth a read. A classic Black Widow story where Natasha is on the run and doesn't know who to trust. While it's overdone at this point, I think this was the first comic to portray it. Yelena and Matt show up in this one too.
Captain America (2005) by Ed Brubaker - VERY IMPORTANT. Bucky is reintroduced as the Winter Soldier and shows up in #1. While it's long, every issue is worth it. Natasha doesn't show up until #27, but #27-#50 is peak buckynat. This run is one of my fav comics of all time.
New Avengers #48-64, Annual #3, Finale (2005) by Brian Michael Bendis - Natasha isn't super important in this, and she barely shows up, but Bucky shows up frequently. I wouldn't say it's entirely important, but it's during Bucky's time as Captain America, and when he interacts with the Avengers, so I recommend it just for that. Also, I'm a little biased because New Avengers (2005) is probably my favorite comic ever.
Black Widow (2010) by Marjorie Liu - The best Black Widow story ever written. I don't think anyone has disliked it. 10/10, I always love to reread it.
Black Widow: Deadly Origin (2010) by Paul Cornell - A miniseries about Natasha's origin. Not entirely important, but it's a solid Black Widow story. Appearances from Bucky and Wolverine.
Captain America #600-619 by Ed Brubaker - Again, it's very important for both Bucky and Natasha. It's a continuation of Captain America (2005).
Captain America & Bucky #620-624 (2011) by Ed Brubaker - Pretty important. It's a retelling of Bucky's life. #624 is all about buckynat and how they met. A lot of iconic buckynat content that the fandom gushes over is in it.
Widowmaker (2011) - Not super important and Bucky isn't in it. A fun team-up story about Clint and Natasha with Bobbi. I enjoyed reading it.
Winter Soldier (2012) by Ed Brubaker - I cannot tell you how much I love this comic. It's the best Bucky's ever been written and I don't think anyone will disagree when I say that no one has ever understood Bucky like Ed Brubaker. Extremely important for buckynat.
Winter Soldier: The Bitter March (2014) by Rick Remender - I'm not going to lie; I don't really remember much from this comic, but I know people like it.
Black Widow (2014) by Phil Noto & Nathan Edmondson - Another popular comic for Natasha. It's probably my second favorite Black Widow comic after Liu's. Another Black Widow is on the run story, but Liho is introduced in this! Bucky is in #8, 15, 17-18. A must read.
Bucky Barnes: The Winter Soldier (2014) by Ales Kot - This isn't my favorite, but the art is absolutely beautiful. I don't think it's essential. Natasha is not in this.
Black Widow (2016) by Mark Waid - I enjoyed reading this comic. I'd rank it third after Liu and Noto. Bucky is in #9-10. Essential Black Widow comic.
Tales of Suspense #100-104 by Matthew Rosenberg - A Winter Soldier and Hawkeye team-up where they look for Natasha after she was killed by Hydra Cap in Secret Empire (no need to read it; SE is trash). A fandom favorite, and I absolutely love it. Winterhawk exploded in popularity after this run.
Winter Soldier (2018) by Kyle Higgins - Natasha does not show up in this, but it's very important for Bucky. It's a short five-issue miniseries, and it's probably the best Bucky has been written since Brubaker.
Black Widow (2019) by Jen and Sylvia Soska - It's a miniseries, and it's a fairly dark one. Natasha is back from the dead, and she's PISSED. Bucky doesn't show up in this one, but Steve does, and it's after her murder at Hydra Cap's hands.
Web of Black Widow (2019) by Jody Houser - Another Natasha miniseries where she's on the run and her friends are worried about her. Bucky shows up in #2 and #5.
Falcon and Winter Soldier (2020) by Derek Landy - A fun team-up comic with Sam and Bucky. Natasha doesn't show up. Not essential.
Black Widow (2020) by Kelly Thompson - It's...not great. Many people have already talked about what they didn't like, so I won't go over it, but it has some fantastic buckynat moments. However, I will say that I really love Natasha, Yelena, Clint, and Bucky teaming up in this comic. That group together is highly entertaining. It doesn't seem like anything from this comic will be paid attention to in the future, but I would still read it.
Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty (2022) by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly - Really trash. I didn’t like this at all. Bucky isn't written well, and I think Natasha shows up like twice. Skip.
Captain America: Cold War (2023) by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly - Another trash event. Skip.
Thunderbolts (2023) by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly - Buckynat FINALLY get back together after they broke up in Winter Soldier (2012). A boring comic otherwise.

(coming from someone with 800+ hours in the game and ex-competitive player)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dualie Squelchers ( 3-4 star)

Splatzones
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Light + Dark Tetra Dualies (5 star)
Second weapon he actually picked up. Prefers Light bc he enjoys the build much more but reef slider is sm fun. Mainly enjoys the rolls (BULLYING STICK PLAYERS OR YOUNG CHILDREN WITH THEM !!)
Splat Zones, Rainmaker, and Clam Blitz Main
Tumblr media
Hydra Splatling (4-5 star)
Fourth weapon he picked up, mainly cause of the learning curve. Absolute menace when he actually takes the time to learn how to play it. Absolutely disgusting with it. Booyah Bomb spammer, he obv uses object shredder to shut down literally anything else. Amazing with crowd control. Totally bullies anyone who cant get close to him, menace to chargers too. NO ONE IS SAFE !!
Tower Control and Splat Zones MAYBE RAIN.
Tumblr media
Splash-O-Matic (AKA MY BBG) (5 Star)
Third weapon he picked up, his easy fav bc of build. Def uses it when hes tired of his lose streak or he gets heated. Absolute menace, all swimspeed, and ninja squid with 3+ sub power up. Crab Tank spammer, movement menace, can carry an entire team, 27+ splats per game.
RAINMAKER !! Tower control, splat zones, clamblitz, splatfest.

wait fav sidemen duos/trios? like who do you like together on teams the most!!
AHHH LOVE THIS QUESTION!
I've never rly thought about good trios ngl, i've only ever looked at them as good duos, but nonetheless lemme give my little thoughts on SDMN's best duos n trios:
HARRY AND VIK - ofc, wroetostar, vikkshaw, it's just iconic... I mean, there's this video on YouTube which is the cutest compilation of their moments... idk, Harry's so outgoing n vibes and Vik's so down to earth and realistic - Harry's chaos rubs off on Vik and gets him out his comfort zone in such a way that Harry's constantly having a whale of a time - really lovely friendships n always shits n gigs when these two are paired up
SIMON AND TOBI - just bare wholesome - they're so cute w one another and the "buying presents" series is always such a sweet watch... Plus in this week's SDMN Sunday, Tobi for the first time showed some sorta homiesexuality which is j such always so goofy - i acc love the new genre of married YouTubers who are comfortable with now just flirting n being all homiesexual w their mates + the Tobi-Simon homiesexuality is always such a jokes watch
JJ AND JOSH - Bit of an odd one ik, but they're just so... well, odd. JJ's plain weird. He has a way with being a fuckin oddball constantly. and how do you fight fire? With fire. Josh somehow takes JJ's weirdness and ups it a level - literally shocking JJ whenever he does and actually making me love their friendship. Plus, BIG UP JJ, because him saying all that about Josh's new hair - literally saying that Josh was so hot at Vik's wedding n all that - I love the supportiveness n sheer weirdness in their friendship.
TOBI AND VIK - Wholesome, wholesome, wholesome! Gahh Tobi's always having a laugh with Vik which is a cute watch considering generally the SDMN push Vik away or aren't as jokeful with him... Good thing Tobi's always having a laugh with him though. And omds, their highlight on YouTube was in the Xmas cooking video on the SDMM channel, where Vik's drunk from Harry's enigmatic wine concoction and goes to Tobi for support, who gives him this big bear hug and laughs with him... Love these two for that &lt;3
SIMON AND ETHAN - homiesexual kings honestly. Both down for a little giggle with one another, and they're both such a strange mixture of stubborn and easy-going, they either gel together as such a funny pairing or simply argue... But when they get on and fuck around, they're honestly hilarious as a duo. I mean, the Sidemen's most watched vid of the rich v cheap holiday in Europe showed their friendship so well imo, absolute cuties.
[27/02 ADDITION] - Simon and Deji - They're j so sweet together. That Deji chuckle-y laugh that Simon always makes happen + the way Simon always finds Dej so out of pocket but hilarious... Yeah, they're ofc a fave.
AND TRIOS
Ethan, Simon n Tobi - laid back trio, literally so chill n always having best vibes with one another
Gib w anyone. - trust me on this, if you've watched the camping video or even the camping clips you'll understand that this man is JOKES. honestly, always raising spirits and getting everyone laughing bc he's just flipping ridiculous sometimes
ngl i like doing triplets but fuck i genuinely have no clue about any other good trios...
Hopefully that's a good little run through of my faves though + lmk any i've missed which you really like! :)

HP Rec Fest, Day 30 ❄️
Happy new year!! This is the last post for the @hprecfest daily prompts for which I'll be reccing fic, so the complete list of Tomarrymort daily recs for this month is listed in its entirety below! The 31st prompt is "a fav amongst favs", which I am physically incapable of narrowing down to a handful of fics, so I'll just end on Day 30 🤍
Thank you to the fest mods for suggesting such lovely prompts and running such a well-organized fest — what a great idea to celebrate the fantastic writing found in this fandom, and I found myself with tons of great new fics to read, particularly in other ships and rarepairs that I would have never come across otherwise!
*
Day 30: A Pre-Canon Fic
Reconciling with Death by Madame_Psychosis (M, 26k, complete)
Summary: Featuring a dead girl in a forest, little-soldier-boys, some tenuous grasps on reality, straw mothers, a ghost in a bathroom and, slowly and sadly, kindness from a boy who’s just passing through time. Why I rec it for this prompt: A really unique take on Harry travelling back in time to 1941 to Tom's school days. I love the non-linear style that this fic is written in, which really enhances the build-up of the murder mystery and all the psychological suspense.
*
Animus, Anima by @maiathoustra (M, 145k, complete)
Summary: In limbo, Harry doesn't choose to go back to the Forbidden Forest to face Voldemort. He makes another decision and finds himself in a baby's body: little Tom Riddle. Years pass that intimately bind the orphan and his imaginary friend into a hopeless and incestuous relationship. Indeed, all the odd events of Tom Riddle's life happen in spite of Harry's presence: could he be the one who provokes them? Why I rec it for this prompt: Another unique take on Harry being sent back in time, this time as a disembodied voice in Tom's head as the most important part of his journey from childhood to when he becomes Lord Voldemort. An incredible exploration on what it means for two souls to love each other so intensely, and the ending is absolutely gutting in a beautiful way. Definitely have tissues on hand for this long, beautiful, angsty read!

ooo ask games! i won't spam you with all of them so here are a few: 💌, ✨ and 📚~
Plz spam me I have a chronic condition (I like talking abt my works LMAO)
Under a read more bc she got a lil long!!!
💌 — Is there a fav trope you like to write?
I love unrequited/pining anything bc I can eat that up in a heartbeat, but I am also deeply fond of the 'two people one braincell' concept where it's just two folks who need to be beside each other to really have one coherent thought 😭
✨️ — Out of the comments you've received on your fics, what are two or three of your favorites?
Ohhhh LMAO oh god. Any time anyone rb's a fic of mine on here and goes ham in the tags or as an addition (Lian and Hana this is targeted at you, lovingly ♡) it automatically becomes a fav I will re-read again and giggle at.
I also had someone on Erlkönig recently pick out bits of their fav lines from my most recent chapter and add comments, which I thought was v sweet 💕 a lot of Erlkönig and Obsiquy comments make me happy, tbh. Anything is sweet in my eyes!
📚 — Is there a fanfic or fanfic writer you'd recommend?
Oh god now I gotta amount my brain power (and look at my bookmarks) 😭😭😭
In terms of fics, Like Lark Notes From the Sky by ARevenantDreamingOfRoses (locked unless logged in) is an absolute banger. It follows an MC who has the ghost of KoD attached to them, guiding them throughout the game; MC is implied to be Fae too.) A stunning, STUNNING piece of work so far. 4 chapters!
you are proof of my existence by ToshihikoRin is also lovely. It covers heavier topics in it, but the author balances this with light-hearted moments too. 27 chapters!
Atramentum by Chronophage is also another really beautiful piece of work. The author writes in a manner I find engaging and easy to follow. It doesn't have Grim in it, as a warning. 36 chapters!
In terms of writers, @welshoot , @hanafubukki , @curekibouka-writing , @llondonfog , @ / raven-at-the-writing-desk, @da-birb-writes-sometimes , and @vera-deville are a few of my immediate top of head who ik write fanfics. But honestly, there are tons of fantastic writers in any of the twst tags that I've come across :)

post volume 2 byler hope
i know volume 2 has left us feeling very pessimistic and hopeless for the possibility of byler. yet, i do still think there is reason to hope and so i have compiled a list of amazing posts that have definitely increased my faith in s5 byler.
(here is a small disclaimer that even though byler just makes sense to us narratively and overall, there is still a chance that the duffers won’t go through with it. if you choose to have hope regardless, that’s great! but pessimism is absolutely valid too. cautious optimism is definitely recommended)
on tumblr:
1) Ok This may be something that can give us bylers a little more hope. by @beepboop358
3) Five act structure: reason to hope by @reservoir-god
4) Will’s First Lie & First I Love You by @aurorabyler
5) Listen, I know that feelings are mixed in this tag right now but hear me out. by @admirablespoling
6) wanted to put this on here bc it perfectly summarizes my thoughts 🙃 by @lesbos4robin (and cr to @/causeineedu on tiktok)
7) i guess the thing giving me the most hope right now by @queerstshit
8) Mike’s monologue sorta feels like a (weird) Wikipedia article (also check comments) by @wakeupthemembersofbylernation
9) insanely steaming hot take but the Will / El / Mike arc was kinda insanely well done by @mssingrls
10) it’s so insane to me how mike just hasn’t been able to tear his eyes away from will the entire season by @heliumcake
11) I just actually watched season four all the way through and byler is 100% gonna happen it’s so obvious. by @tinyteenieworld
12) This scene reminded me a lot of the beginning of s3, when Mike is goofing around by singing in the middle of kissing by @howtobecomeadragon
13) Piggybacking off of and inspired by this rad post by @admirablespoling. by @tsugarubecker
14) there really is no point to byler if it's unrequited. by @11byers
15) The m!leven flowers are rottin— by @dancing-in-our-snow-globe and @beepboop358
16) It would appear I am indeed one of the very few optimistic (delusional?) Bylers left. by @chirpsythismorning
17) a part of me feels like it's possible that the end of episode 9 was preparing the general audience for Eleven going off on her own, and a Byler ship by @merthurfan-blog
18) my analysis of mike’s “feelings” for el and what leads to the monologue/his feelings behind it by @strangerfigs
19) Here’s a handful of cautious optimism as a treat, my brothers in byler by @hopfields
20) Mike's S4 jacket (and who his heart is really pointing to) by @mlchaelwheeler
21) St@ncy’s revival is like one of the biggest byler proofs in V2. by @neverforever09
22) michael’s airport outfit by @prfctmxxnlight
23) analyzing ST S4/Byler from someone with a film degree. by @swift-fated and credit to @/joannimal on twitter

25) Do you find it possible that Byler will definitely happen in season 5 and if so why by @upside-down-byers
26) volume 2 & instant vs delayed gratification by @chartreuse-goose
27) Whenever you doubt Byler, remember that… (a little reminder of all the things pointing towards byler as endgame) by @byernation
28) i just rewatched “the piggyback” and oh. OH. !!!!!!! by @hawkinsp0st
29) i can’t get over “we’re friends. we’re friends.” and “are ‘friends’ electric?” on mikes official Spotify playlist by @strangerfigs
30) “False Confessions” & “Piggybacking” in ST4: Ask Yourself if We Are Being Encouraged to Pick Apart the Inconsistencies... by @bluemeetyellow
31) Byler is going to be Canon and Here’s Why: by @allnaturalapplejuice
on other social media:
1) this beautiful twitter thread on ‘stranger things and the art of slow burn’ by @/hawkinshermit on twitter
2) any and all videos by @/causeineedu on tiktok. this one is one of my personal favs.
3) all the videos by @/naturallybrielle on tiktok
4) the analysis videos of @/girlskth on tiktok. she made a really cool discovery here and here.
5) this post on the use of little women parallels in the show by @/sbyleril on twitter (check comments! there’s a really good video with the parallels too)
6) this perfect harry potter chamber of secrets/byler parallel by @/folklorent on twitter
7) this twitter thread on the parallels between the romances in little women in stranger things by @/rosiec4ke on twitter
i will definitely be adding more posts to this list if i come across any. thank you to all the bloggers for giving me permission to include their posts! i really appreciate it. i also really hope this helped restore your hope in s5 byler, even if just a little bit :)

Chubtober Day 27...kinda
So, I had a day at work today. 🙃
I don't really have anything prepared for today's prompts and I am very much not in a writing mood tonight. I decided that instead of completely skipping the day, I'm going to post a few of my fav fics as a little recommendations post. I'm sure most of you have read these, but I still love highlighting fic writers for their work. Enjoy!
---
Life As We Want It by Akranes - Minimoni Retirement AU, eventual Feeder Namjoon/Feedee Jimin
I LOVE THIS FIC! I love this fic. The natural gain, the slow burn into their feedism dynamic, the way they love each other. It's everything. I could talk about this fic forever.
Fits & Starts by @trivialovehandles - Minimoni Married AU, implied eventual Feeder Namjoon/Feedee Jimin
This fic is fantastic. Jimin's realization of not only his gain but also his interest in the gain. Namjoon's absolute support and love. Both of them testing Jimin's limits subtly. So good.
Try It On For Size by bubblebobble - Jikook College AU, Relationship and Gain Slow Burn
I love how much this fic explores Jungkook's emotions and Jimin's support. They are so sweet plus coach Jin is fantastic.
20 Days of Chub by chubology - 20 chapters of Yoonmin fics
It's iconic at this point honestly. The entire work is incredible, but some of my fav chapters are 1 & 2, 12, and 20.
Home for the Holidays by @chubbiekookie - VMin College AU, Relationship Slow Burn, implied eventual Feeder Tae/Feedee Jimin
My sweet VMin! This story is absolutely beautiful. Tae's emotions are written so well and I love how much they love each other. Plus, the description of Jimin's gain is so adorable yet sexy. Love it.
Jikook in a Hot Tub by @cookiesuga55 - Jikook Vacation AU, Established Feeder Jimin/Feedee Jungkook
This post has so many elements of a good fic for me. The descriptions, the build up, the intimacy, the teasing, the comedic moments. And the actual hot tub scene is incredibly hot.

dr ideas pt.2

date: march 27, 2024

fairy bakery dr
okay so not the most creative DR, but it's cute isn't it?
Imagine baking lilac nectar scones in a little mushroom house early in the morning. You breathe in the sweet aroma of blooming flowers as you slide all the carefully baked desserts into those little chilled bakery display shelves.
SOOO cute omfg… here’s some desserts that I think would be sold here (disclaimer, I’m Asian, I’m both Chinese and Thai)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The first photo is Chinese shaved ice (Baobing)! I’ve never actually had baobing, but I’ve had bingsu plenty of times. Idk if the consistency of baobing is the same as bingsu, but the actual ice part is very very fine, exactly like snow. The best bingsu places flavor the ice (other than the toppings). The ones I liked the most had a hint of vanilla flavoring (probably vanilla ice cream or smth). I definitely think that fairies would use magic to purify snow and make baobing out of it!
The second photo is probably bua loi, this is something I’ve had all the time as a kid. The purple stuff is regular coconut milk mixed with sweetened and condensed coconut milk, the white flower is essentially softer boba. Idk wtf is in the mochi lookin things, but I assume it’s the purple coconut milk. This dessert is eaten warm.
Anyway, I definitely think that fairies would make lots of fruit parfaits, elaborate cakes, donuts filled with sweet nectar cream, and strawberry tarts. Some other desserts you should make in this DR are tanghulu, moon cakes, luk chup, kleeb lamduan, thapthim krop, and a-lua (aka ‘Allure’). I’ve had all of these irl (besides for tanghulu, I can’t eat it😭) and they all have a mild but sweet and unique taste. I’ve never had smoked a-lua before, but I have had the unsmoked version. I think it’s similar to merengue…? I’ve never had merengue, but it looks similar to it 😭 I have had luk chup before, it’s sweet but if you don’t like the smell or taste of the candle used to smoke the desserts, you deffff won’t like it. It’s like biting into a vanilla scented candle, I absolutely love it, but ik that not everyone grew up with that kind of flavor! My fav smoked dessert is khanom pia, keke
Oki doki, let’s get back on topic. What would the interior of your bakery look like?
It’d definitely have lots of flowers, especially flowering vines, dried herbs would be hung for decoration or to garnish desserts, jars of self made jam would line the counters too. There would be a large window you could open, and you’d be able to place your desserts on the window sill for other fairies to pick up.
Tumblr media
oki I think that’ll do for now. I feel like my posts lately have been getting really long, so here’s a shorter one <3
