☆ SEUNGCHEOL
you and seungcheol were actually best friends when you decided to confess that you loved him. during your highschool years, seungcheol would often complain about girls not liking him because they thought he was intimidating– he would whine about graduating without having dated someone or being loved by someone. it was definitely a difficult decision on your part, confessing to him on your highschool graduation day. you were dressed in a pretty outfit and held out flowers for him, all the while you shared your biggest secret with him, explaining that you wanted him to know there were people that loved him. you’re fully prepared to be rejected but it never happens. instead, seungcheol holds your hand, kisses your cheek and asks you out on a date. “thank you, i’m grateful” “you deserved to know…”
☆ JEONGHAN
it was truly a bad day for you so you did what every logical person would do, go out for dinner, alone. it wasn’t as bad as you thought it would be, soon getting used to the weird glances the waiters sent your way. nonetheless, you could only feel heartbreak when you were served the wrong order. you then made eye contact with the guy sitting alone at the table across from yours and a short silent back and forth between your plates made you realize your orders had been mixed up. it didn’t take long before the mistake was corrected but the solo dinner soon started to feel like a duo dinner as you ate in front of each other. a bold question and less than five minutes later, you and the guy– who you found out was named jeonghan– were eating together at your table, sharing fun stories. suddenly, your day didn’t seem so awful anymore. “can i join you?” “i don’t see why not.”
☆ JOSHUA
you had always been quite fond of joshua, even if you two weren’t really friends and only shared two classes together. he had helped you with some homework in class once and even lent you his notes a few times when you caught a fever, but even if you knew he wouldn't mind helping you again, you still felt a bit bad about the endless hours he spent with you because of it. however, life doesn’t always go our way and so you begged joshua for help once again after you bumped into him at the mall while searching for a birthday gift for your sibling. joshua, again, spent hours with you, but this time, it felt different. joshua made it feel like you were hanging out together and you quickly found yourself buying him a gift as a thank you– you just didn’t expect him to kiss you in the middle of the mall after it though. “why- why did you kiss me?” “i’m just giving you something in return.”
☆ JUN
working with jun was the best thing that could have happened to you to be honest. he was your favorite coworker and everyone knew, even your boss pointed it out once. one day, your lunch disappeared from the break room, and jun was there to share his lunch with you, slicing his little chocolate brownie dessert in two, giving you the biggest piece. you were happy, until your lunch was stolen again the next day, and the day after, and the whole week after. someone in the office was a lunch-stealer and you had enough, not even bothering to bring lunch today, dragging jun with you to have lunch at a restaurant near work. you wished lunch break lasted longer because getting to know jun outside of work just proved you were right to favor him. that same night, you had dinner with him, and the day ended with you two watching a movie at your apartment, unofficially having your first date. “i can’t believe someone would actually steal your grilled chicken sandwich!” “..how’d you know i made a grilled chicken sandwich for lunch?”
☆ HOSHI
while you were busy watching over your neighbor’s kids at the park for a hefty amount of cash, hoshi was dragging his two friends over to the playground and its blue slide with a huge grin. some concerned parents glance at him weirdly when he goes down the slide but they soon let it go when they realize he’s just playing around, like all the other kids. the kids, however, soon flock around him when they notice his tiger hoodie and a game of hide and seek ensues not long after. you’re still watching over them and smile at the joyful expression of the seemingly sweet guy. he's good with the kids, ruffling their hair and giving them piggyback rides. when it’s time for the kids to get their afternoon snack, you offer one to the man, who accepts and happily sits next to you. chatting with soonyoung is just so easy that you end up giving him your number and going out for ice cream the next day. “y’know, the kids loved playing with you.” “it’s the tiger hoodie effect.”
☆ WONWOO
you swear that the librarian always puts the books you like on higher shelves because you’re convinced she hates you– you were only late once to return a book. you’re almost considering asking for help when a tall stranger picks it up, making awkward eye contact with you when he realizes you both were reaching for it. the next time you go to the library, you spot the tall stranger sitting at one of the tables, the desired book in his hands. you speak up out of nowhere but he gets scared and cuts his finger on one of the pages, pouting at his finger sadly. you’re not even sure why you’re reaching into your bag for one of your bandaids, but the smile he gives you as he eyes the cat design on the bandaid makes your heart beat. you prepare to leave the library but then he calls out for you, shyly offering to read the book together, and who are you to say no to that offer? “wait, no, go back, i wasn’t done yet!” “you know you can touch the book too right?”
☆ WOOZI
you and woozi had known each other for a little while, working at the same studio and having a similar fanbase on social media. you both respected and acknowledged each other, but that was basically it. all that changed when you had to work on a song with him, and although he tried keeping his distance at first, he quickly warmed up to you when you brought him a homemade meal once. the song’s finally done and is well received by the public, people saying the two of you go well together. you have a last meeting to discuss the song and then it’s radio silence on your part. it’s only months later that woozi hears from you again. he finds out you quit and started working independently and even before he can say he’s proud of you, he’s asking you out. “lucky the ‘dating between coworkers is not allowed’ rule doesn’t apply anymore” “why do you think i reached out after i quit?”
☆ SEOKMIN
surprisingly, you had met seokmin at a club and had spent the entire night talking to each other in a corner instead of dancing and drinking. after that “eventful” night, all his friends knew you as the “club girl”. the more you and seokmin chatted every day, the more he started to fall for you. it became so bad that his friends had stopped trying to convince him to confess. but then you mentioned going on a date once and he immediately started dropping hints, scared that you would go out with someone else. it’s during a karaoke session at your favorite karaoke bar that he finally has enough alcohol in his system to gather the courage to confess. he dedicates a love song to you, singing his heart out and making you tear up. you then go home, both tipsy and an emotional confession follows. “i can’t believe your friends know me as the ‘club girl’!” “hey, now they will know you as my girl!”
☆ MINGYU
at your friend’s party, someone decided playing a game of spin the bottle and seven minutes in heaven would be ideal. the first rounds were going smoothly but then the bottle landed on you and when you looked up, you realized the one who spun the bottle was already looking at you. they locked you two in a closet and you learned his name was mingyu–  and that he was super handsome too. it didn't last long before the two of you were making out, mingyu pushing you against the wall as you gripped his shirt and pulled at his hair. even the opened door and the gasps couldn’t stop you two from kissing. you left shortly after, hand in hand. you don't really know how you ended up at a diner at this hour, but sharing a strawberry milkshake with mingyu definitely ended the night on a good note. “i think we should date– just a suggestion." “yeah? take me out for dinner first though”
☆ MINGHAO
you had started attending the same class as minghao since the beginning of the semester but never really bothered to interact with each other. that was until you were late for a school meeting and in your haste, ran into minghao and his cup of iced tea. the stress of having to change your top at the last minute, while already being late, was visible on your face and minghao gently offered you his shirt. it fit a bit too loose on you but it suits you well, and your meeting ends up going smootlhy. the next day, you go to find minghao in class, standing sheepishly next to his desk as you hand him his freshly washed shirt back. he only chuckles when you tell him you owe him but then he’s asking you out for dinner, smiling up at you. “are you sure this is what you want?” “well, considering that i’ve found you cute since the beginning of the semester, yeah.”
☆ SEUNGKWAN
it wasn’t a secret that you had a long-time crush on seungkwan. he had been suspicious of you for awhile before mutual friends of yours confirmed his suspicions, telling him that you didn’t even mind him knowing. that had him seriously curious and he started to take some interest in you. when valentine’s day arrives, he’s waiting for you to confess but he never receives a letter from you that day. he’s honestly very surprised, upset, vexed and goes to ‘confront’ you. the only thing you do is ask him why he cares and that makes him think. yeah, why does he even care? it bothers him for days and he finally realizes he likes you. weeks later, seungkwan stands in front of you, a letter and your favorite snacks in hand. “it’s not even valentine’s day anymore.” “just take the gift!”
☆ VERNON
during a party, a group of people play truth or dare and both you and vernon are dared to fake date each other because your mutual friend– the one who dared you– wanted to play cupid. you two end up continuing to “date” even after the dare supposedly ends, or expires. the, at first, awkward meetings turn into fun hangouts before becoming real dates. the forced proximity turns into gentle side hugs and firm hand holding before becoming shy but daring kisses. and at last, the “nice to officially meet you, partner.” turns into “i don't think this is fake anymore...” before finally becoming “i love you”. your friends had all seen it slowly coming but they still were the happiest at the outcome, your mutual matchmaker friend grinning from the sidelines. “so, i guess we have to date now?” “yeah– what’s your name by the way?”
☆ DINO
you used to work part time at an ice-cream parlor during summer break, and chan worked at the pizzeria across the street from your job. the ice cream parlor was always so busy compared to the pizzeria that you never noticed him staring at you. after almost two months of crushing on you, he goes to ask for your number while you’re on shift, convinced by his friends. however, you turned him down because you were on shift and as a result, you had to look at chan walk back to the pizzeria, rejection written all over his face. chan was super pouty for the rest of the week but when he’s finally done with his long saturday shift, he finds you waiting for him, next to his beat up car. he’s tired and honestly, cranky but when you hand him your phone, asking him for his number, he’s wide awake. “you waited for me?” “i had to make it up to you somehow..”

AITA for wanting my brother to eat other foods?
so my (19m) brother (14m) has an extremely simple diet of fried chicken, pizza and french fries. we both suspect he has autism (i've been diagnosed with autism and our symptoms line up) so i'm Assuming these are his safe foods, and yes it's unhealthy but it's better than nothing. but we do Not have the money to sustain his diet, it's just me, him and our mom (41) struggling with mental illness so neither of us can hold jobs for very long and mostly rely on food stamps every month, and they run out very quickly. and it's usually me or my mom making the chicken, the pizza is microwavable, and the french fries are either pre-packaged so he can put them in the oven, or i'm making them from scratch. and these have to be made alongside mine and mom's dinner. everyday. and when the food can be made by him it's all gone within a week (we buy alot at once but that drains money fast).
so the thing is. i said Assume they're his safe foods because he's literally (and i mean literally i've been with him nearly all day everyday his entire life) never eaten anything else besides simple sandwiches (we also make for him) for school lunch, so he doesnt even know what else he likes. he's tried my ramen noodles once before but threw it away immediately for what he says was "a texture thing" and thats IT and now he's averse to eating anything at all. i'm tired of having savings from what work i can do spent on him when nobody feels like doing all that cooking, when we have leftovers in the fridge of food he refuses to eat. i don't really use my money on anything else besides going out with friends every once in a while, so i kind of feel selfish not buying him food and letting him starve himself even though we have other things he will eat, he just doesn't want to make.
i also feel bad because i know he thinks he's a burden because of this and it makes him feel worse to bring it up. we've gone through a different food related problem with my mom (who's gotten better) getting upset at us for saying we don't want to eat after she complains that we have no money to eat, and it made an ED that i still struggle with so much worse and i don't want to be the one potentially doing that to him.
kindof related but it's also just bugging me, he does not do any chores. he doesn't clean his room, leaves empty (or half full) bottles everywhere, when he's making his food he uses all the oven trays and plates and piles them in the sink when i've personally complained that he could just wash them immediately, it takes 10 seconds. it's so annoying even though i'm not the one doing the dishes either (i wash all my dishes immediately after using them). it might be influencing my thoughts on his food habits even though it's not the same issue.
TL;DR we are broke with spotty income, my brother only eats chicken, pizza and french fries, rarely makes the food himself, isn't interested in eating anything else, and im getting asked to pay for takeout whenever we don't want to make his food for him. and i do not want to pay, so i feel bad.
so AITA and being selfish with my money when i should be looking out for him? and WIBTA if i got my mom to get him to eat anything else? (she thinks we can't force him but we are throughly annoyed). especially while school is out for the summer and we're not making him at least 1 grilled cheese everyday. or is my gut correct and we are seriously coddling him when he's 14 years old and should know better?
What are these acronyms?

Summary: Michael has a crush on his pregnant neighbor and uses food as a tactic to win them over.
Content/Warnings: Pregnancy, Friendship, Mutual Pining, Fluff, Food, Eating, Complicated feelings.
-- Read below or at AO3.
Tumblr media
Michael has had a huge crush on his neighbor – you – ever since he met you a few months ago when you moved into the unit across from him. The problem with his infatuation is that you’re very pregnant, and right about to pop. He doesn’t mind that at all, no. Good news is that the father of the baby is out of the picture; bad news is you’re not interested in seeing anyone right now. That’s what he’s gathered from all the times you’ve hung out. So, he basks in the friendship you’ve offered, hoping someday you’ll see him differently.  
In all Michael’s hope, he uses his best tool at hand to win you over. More specifically, he targets and makes his case to your stomach; and every night, he brings you food from the restaurant after closing. It’s not just a conquering tactic. As a friend, right now he just wants to be helpful cause the last month has been very challenging for you. You’re two weeks away from your due date, and your girdle pain has severely become more unbearable, rendering you useless for the most part of the day. The only thing he can do to make your life a little easier is bringing a dish particularly crafted for you, so you don’t have to waddle to cook something for yourself or order something subpar from any other place.
Once the shop is closed, when all the staff has left, and the lights go out, he comes out of his office, slings on an apron and directs all his attention, and puts all his heart, on cooking something to make you feel better. It’s been a learning experience cause your cravings have shifted often and what you loved yesterday might not please your stomach today, so he does a different thing every day. Tonight he’s going for a grilled chicken sandwich. He takes his time marinating the breast before grilling it. He tops it with lettuce, tomato slices, onions, and pickles; he knows you’d never say no pickles. Then, he layers all the ingredients in a toasted sesame bun and wraps it before heading home.
He can tell by the time you take to open the door you’re getting more exhausted every second closer to the end of your pregnancy. He hands you the sandwich, and you almost rip it out of his hands by how good it smells. It makes him chuckle as he closes the door behind him and sits with you for a while to watch you slowly savoring the food he prepared.
“How’s the little guy doing?” he gazes at your rounded belly.
You shrug, chewing your food, enjoying the amalgam of flavors caught in your taste buds, “I think he wants to get out.”
“Yeah?”
“Hm-hmm, I’ve had two contractions in the past hour.”
“Shouldn’t you call your doctor or something?”
“I did. She said to time them, and call again if they get more intense and closer.”
“What about that Braxton guy?”
“Braxton Hicks?” you snort, “it didn’t feel like that.”
“Why are you so chill?”
“I’m not,” you quickly reply, smoothing a hand over the stretched shirt covering your pregnant belly, “I’m trying to stay calm, so he’d chill a little.”
“May I?” One of his hands hovers over your belly, and you nod shyly.
You swallow the lump in your throat as he places his palm on the topside of your tummy. It’s not the first time he’s done that, but every time he does, it makes your stomach flutter all the same. Michael puts the same love in that gentle touch, as he does in all the food he brings you.
He came into your life like a blessing in the middle of one of the worst times of your life, and his friendship has made life more bearable in these past few months. How in the world you got pregnant by some asshole instead of someone like Michael goes beyond comprehension. It feels like the ultimate joke. Though, there are bigger things in your mind right now than considering dating in your situation, you wish you’d met him sooner.
Whatever feelings you’re harboring for the chef, you have to put them aside. You’re heavily focused on bringing the little guy growing inside you into this world safe and sound, and starting something with Michael in this crucial point of your life would only make it more confusing for you and for your baby boy, and you can’t have that.
It’s pretty obvious, he likes you back. Who’d hang with a pregnant idiot like yourself this much if it wasn’t interested in something more? Even your most loyal friends aren’t as concerned as he is. He listens to all your complaints, makes you laugh, and most importantly– he feeds you. Every fucking night for the past couple of months you’ve been spoiled by having a personal chef sating all your cravings. If that's not love, then what is?
His beautiful lips curve up when the baby kicks right below his palm. He leans closer and in a moment of temporary confusion, every rational thought leaves your mind, and you tilt your head and press a kiss against the corner of his mouth. It takes him by surprise, and his bottom lip trembles as you pull your head back slightly.
“Sorry,” you mumble, tearing up at how stupid you feel after doing that. A second after, your apology is wiped away when his mouth sweetly presses against yours once more. It lingers for a hot minute before having his lips bouncing against yours several times, bumping your nose with his as his face tilts to the other side.
Your heart races when his mouth parts wider, inviting you into a deeper kiss. You accept and shyly send your tongue to meet him in the middle. His hand is still on your tummy, and you tentatively place your palm over his knuckles. You feel him smile as he kisses you ever so slowly until you feel another kick lower in your abdomen, and you jerk your face away.
Wait… it’s not a kick, you quickly realize. You hum lightly in pain, as that semi-familiar cramping from earlier that flares at your lower back and wraps all around your abdomen, and you even feel it reaching your thighs this time. You clench your teeth as Michael takes his hand away and soothes your back instead until it passes.
Relaxing once the pain has dulled, you lean back against the backrest and inhale deeply.
“I don't know how to fit you into my life right now, Michael. I wish I could.”
“Honey, don’t worry about that right now. Was that–”
“Uh-hm,” you check the clock in your phone to calculate the time since the last one, 18 minutes. They’re too far to tell if you’re in active labor. Could still be false, but you doubt that, cause like everything else in your life, nothing ever turns out like it’s supposed to. “I think you should go.”
“I’m not leaving you alone right now.”
“You’re too damn stubborn, you know that?”
“Said the kettle,” he scoffs, “do you really want me to leave?”
You think for a beat, and shake your head, trying not to burst into tears, “I just don’t wanna be an inconvenience. I got myself into this, I should deal with it alone. You’ve done too much for me already… I could never ask you to do this.”
“Sweetheart,” he exhales, “you’re not, and you shouldn’t have to deal with this alone. Nobody should. I’ll go if you don’t want me here, but know that there’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you, got it?”
“Got it,” your lips turn up slightly, and he mirrors your response.
“Then that’s settled.”
You swallow the lump in your throat and go lay down on your bed for a bit and see if it passes while Michael makes himself useful washing your dishes and putting away the half sandwich you left unfinished.
He truly is heaven-sent. He checks on you every few minutes and brings you water, and later sees that his car has enough gas to take you to the hospital. He sure would do anything for you, without question. Much like you said, he doesn’t know how he’d fit into your world, either, but he wants to figure out. The fact that you’re having a baby is not the most scary thing about you, it’s the thought of not having you at all is what terrifies him.
Your baby boy wants to get out tonight, even if you’re not ready. The non-stopping contractions, coming increasingly closer every time, tell you that it’s time to accept he’s not slowing down and that you need to get to the hospital.
Michael drives you. This wasn’t on his plans tonight, but he doesn’t wanna be anywhere else, to be honest.
It comes out naturally for him to take care of you during this long process that lasts thirteen hours. Though he's never had to face anything like this, taking care of family is part of what makes him– him. And you, whether you are together or not, feel like family to him.
The feeling is mutual, even if you haven’t come into terms with it yet.
When the big moment comes, he never leaves your side. He holds your hand, tight, until the baby is out. It’s then that he steps back for you to meet your son. That’s a sacred moment he doesn’t want to interrupt.
Once you're both settled, he leaves for a few hours to check on the restaurant, and comes by later with a bouquet of flowers and a big teddy bear.
“Hey,” you beam, glancing at Michael from the bed, holding your little guy tucked like a burrito in your arms.
“Hey, sweetheart. How are you feeling?”
“Tired but good. We’re good.”
“So, this is Rhys,” he places the gifts down and comes closer to take a good look at the newborn.
“This is Rhys,” you repeat.
“He looks like you.”
“God, I hope so,” you gently touch Rhys’ chin, and he scrunches his tiny face.
“You did really well. Both of you.”
“Thank you,” you gulp the lump in your throat, and gaze at Michael, “I couldn’t have done it without you.”
“Of course, sweetheart.”
“Listen, I uh… I need to ask you something. You can say no, but I was thinking of giving him Michael as his middle name. I didn’t have one when we came here, and it’s fitting. You were here with us all night, you’re one of my best friends and I just… I don’t know. It doesn’t have to mean anything other than that. I know what happened last night was confusing, and I’m not asking you to marry me, just… I want him to have your name if you agree.”
“Wow,” he swallows, flabbergasted, “really? He can have it if you want, sweetheart. You didn’t have to ask.”
“Okay, good,” you exhale, “cause I was already getting used to how it sounded.”
“Rhys Michael,” he pronounces slowly, “yeah, sounds good.”
“You wanna hold him?”
“Maybe later. He looks so cozy in there. I don't wanna upset him.”
“You won’t.”
“Are you sure?”
You nod, and he gently picks Rhys up from your arms and sits on the chair next to the bed.
It’s such a weird, overwhelming feeling seeing Michael cradle your baby in his arms, and it saddens you that his own father wasn’t here to meet him, but at least he’d have Michael as an ally, a cool uncle, a best friend perhaps… whatever he decides to be, you know it’d be good for both of you.

Not gonna lie, grilled cheese with apple sauce might just be the first time I want to UNIRONICALLY try some food take from here.
I keep imagining what the taste would be and I'm like "huh, that doesn't sound bad".
And yes, I tested imagining the other food takes to see if I wasn't just desensitized by now, liquid chicken still sounds horrible (I'm still gonna try it someday though, y'know, for Miku).
yeah i'm a major apple sauce apologist, it tastes good with pretty much anything - so yeah, i'd eat one of op's grilled cheese apple sauce sandwiches
people think dipping fries in milkshakes is normal, and honestly this seems like a pretty similar concept
anyway, drink a chicken smoothie! i'm sure miku would appreciate it! also she's merciless

baby steps: noah marshall x mc
937 words. plotless. tw: mc is getting used to eating solid food again after being saved.
“So this is the famous french dip with au jus that I’ve heard so much about,” you grin, teasing Noah. 
“You remember that,” he blushes. 
You sniff, unsure about this. You’d been on a liquid diet for ages since coming back. It had been Tom and Connor’s plan since you threw up from fries. Keeping down food had been hard at first. Remembering to eat. Being alive was hard. It was shitty how hard the adjustment was after being a disembodied shadow for so long. 
“You can just have the au jus if you don’t think you're ready,” Noah offers, leaning on the counter next to you. He’d cut the sandwich in half.
You take a deep breath, “I never want to have bone broth again,” you scowl, sick of it. Sick the lack of texture. “‘Sides,” you reach out for Noah’s hand, “how else am I gonna taste test the Baby Jane menu?”
“I still have to sign the lease,” Noah reminds you. 
“Oh please,” you wave off, “they’d be crazy not to give you the place. Lot’s been empty since we were kids. I’m actually surprised it’s still standing, and right on the highway too.” Westchester was a small town. People only drove by on their way to New York City. 
You pick at the sandwich first, tearing a piece of bread. “I still can’t believe you know how to bake.”
“It’s really easy,” Noah points out. “Salt. Flour. Yeast. Bread flour is the game changer. Not that all purpose stuff.”
You stick your tongue out at him. 
“Don’t knock it till you try it.” The asshole winks at you. 
You kick him lightly. 
Then you have to pause to wiggle your toes. You had toes again. 
You pinch your arm. 
Yup. Still here. Alive. 
You pop the piece of bread into your mouth. 
“Mm.” Oh fuck it was good. Light and fluffy. You’d forgotten what chewing was like. Better than the store bought white bread that stuck to the roof of your mouth. Still, you tease Noah, “not bad.”
Noah puts a hand over his chest, “that’s it.”
You laugh at him, “okay. It’s really good. I’m surprised you don’t have your own starter.”
“I do actually,” Noah tells you, “gotta save that for the grilled cheese later. It’s mind blowing.”
You giggle. It was adorable how into cooking Noah could get. You didn’t know the difference between tri-tip and sirloin but you could listen to Noah go one about it for hours. You liked watching him move around the kitchen, shredding cheese and sauteing vegetables. 
You had a newfound appreciation for the mundane. Anytime spent with Noah was special to you. 
Next, you pull out a piece of the thinly sliced beef, popping it into your mouth before you chicken out. 
It was. . .you chew, unable to place the flavor. . .you remember the cold seeping into your body, the wind going right past you, the smell of iron and rot and dirt in your jaw. . .
You grip the counter, swallowing the bite. You hope it stays down. You can practically feel it crawling down your throat, landing in your stomach with a heavy thud. 
It felt wrong.
Eating, being solid-
It was so hard to get used to. 
Stay down, you tell yourself. It was a tiny bite.
You were sick of pedialyte and strained chicken broth. You could do this. You’d managed to keep your sanity through it all, you could do anything. 
“You okay,” Noah squeezes your hand. 
You nod, “yeah. It’s nothing just…give me a moment.” It was hard to be human again. 
“Maybe you should stick to bread? If it’s easier.” 
He was so sweet. Noah who never left your side when you needed him most, who gave you all the space you needed to recover, who made you laugh when you felt like shattering. Noah Marshall who made it all worth it. 
“No.” You insist, “Let me try another piece,” you decide when the slice of beef doesn’t give you nausea. When you manage to keep the bite down, you decide to have another. 
This time you focus on the cheap particle board bar top in Noah’s tiny home. The entire neighborhood was rundown, but quiet. There were never any issues except the neighbors sunday get together that would go on until 2 in the morning.
Secretly you liked hearing the noise. It gave you something to focus on when you woke up from another nightmare back in that place. 
You rip another piece with your fingers. 
This time it’s juicy, the beef tearing to pieces easily. You lack the words, barely remembering food enough but it’s good. It’s a lot like deja vu, the flavor of beef was familiar but you couldn't remember how. 
“I like it,” you tell Noah. 
“Does it live up to expectations?” He flicks your nose.
You flip him off. “Company could be better.” You tear another piece of bread off. Small bites. You could do small bites. “I like getting to chew.” It sounds insane. “Fuck, that’s sad.” You slump in the bar stool.
“No,” Noah reassured you, “it’s cute.”
“Liar.”
“I’m not lying.”
“Okay,” you scrunch your nose up, “so we’re both pathetic.”
“Maybe,” Noah grins. 
You laugh, covering your mouth with your hand. 
Maybe you two were sad losers barely working on getting GEDs after flunking high school for supernatural reasons, but you wouldn’t want to be with anyone else. Things as simple as doing the dishes was tons of fun when you got to flick soap bubbles at Noah. 
“So when do I get to try the grilled cheese?”

Lunch Time - Oni (OC) x Namora
Attoye and Namshuri are sprinkled in. Along with just Namora, Namor, and Attuma being goofy together. This is extremely short. So don't raise any pitchforks.
Author Notes:
I might write something for the other couples later. This was just a very strong thought I needed to pen down somewhere.
Also, later down the road in Storm, Oni will gain an opportunity to revoke her vow. We aren't there yet... so relax and enjoy the food.
Attuma, Namora, and K'uk'ulkan often get together for lunch and eat the meals their Wakandan partners pack for them.
Attuma is always eating something hearty, whether it's leftovers of something he cooked (because he enjoys cooking for Okoye) or something Okoye cooked (because he loves eating food she's prepared).
This only started because Aneka had brought Ayo lunch, and Attuma wouldn't stop begging Okoye to pack him one, too.
After many days of pouting, the midnight angel finally caved for her shark man.
In the beginning, Shuri refused to cook K'uk'ulkan anything. And he looked so pitiful. She eventually caved when she realized he was refusing to eat lunch because she wouldn't make it for him. It was never as extravagant as Attuma's, but he would always brag to everyone that the Queen had cooked him something.
Even if it was just a small little sandwich, a juice box, and a fruit snack.
Namora, on the other hand, typically packed her own lunch. Being companionless and all... that is until Oni started bringing her food a few minutes before lunch.
The first time she did it, Namora was shocked and flustered. She had asked around if Oni had ever given anyone lunch before and struggled to interpret what the act of kindness meant.
They'd gone from sparring buddies to friends... and now this?
Wasn't this a tradition for couples?
Was this an act of courting?
It didn't help that Attuma and her cousin were merciless with their teasing as well.
Making kissy faces and wild comments.
"Congratulations." Attuma grinned as he squeezed her feathered shoulder. "You have found yourself a mighty woman."
K'uk'ulkan chuckled as Namora smacked his hand away.
"A warrior that could actually kill you, no less." The king grinned. "How fitting."
Namora scowled. "You cannot tease me. You two are worse than me."
"Yes, but you will be just as bad, eventually."
And the god king was right.
Within a span of a few weeks, Namora was down bad for the Vessel of Bast.
Everyone would always whisper and watch the priestess as she'd journey down to the river with a basket of goods.
There would always be a bundle of flowers, something cold and refreshing to drink, and a hot meal that was always ready to eat.
Some days, it would be something she purchased and repackaged.
Other days it would be some arrangement of chicken, rice, and plantain.
Namora preferred the latter because she knew it was homemade.
She could tell by the bandaids the priestess would dawn when delivering the meal and how she would always toss in a few plums in case the meal wasn't "good enough".
It was always delicious and far more appreciated than Namora wished to let on publicly.
Oni wasn't an awful cook, but her skills were very limited in the kitchen. She only knew how to cook five things.
Chicken.
Rice.
Plantain.
Eggs.
and Tea.
Anything else would somehow go up in flames. The warrior had witnessed this first hand after doubting her ability to only be skilled enough to make five things.
Oni had tried to make her hot chocolate and nearly burned down the house.
Then she had managed to turn a knob of corn into a piece of charcoal.
Her last attempt, in which she had attempted to grill fish, almost landed them a one way ticket to the ancestral plane.
How had she cultivated such a small and specific culinary skill?
Namora wasn't sure, but she didn't want to experience the terrors of fire and smoke again.
Today was a homemade meal kind of day, and Namora was practically glowing when the priestess made her way down to the river bank.
Attuma chuckled as he watched the feathered woman make her way out of the water before stopping in front of the priestess.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting. I tried to get here sooner, but I slipped up with the knife while cleaning the chicken."
"You cooked for me again?" Namora's face slowly began to purple.
"Yeah. You said you really liked the stewed chicken I made for you the other day, so I figured I'd make it for you again." The priestess looked down at the basket. "Hopefully, you're not tired of eating the same three ingredients. I try to buy stuff to keep things interesting."
"I will love whatever you give me." Namora looked up at her. "I will not care if it's the same thing."
Oni held out the basket, dawning a series of bandaid. "Then I hope you really enjoy it. I worked really hard on it, but in case it isn't great, I added a few plums."
"It will be enjoyed because it is great." Namora frowned. "Do not diminish your effort."
"I'm just being honest."
"And I will not tolerate your acts of disrespect towards yourself."
Oni huffed but didn't contest her gentle scolding.
Namora gently grabbed the basket before grabbing her hand to examine it. "I will bring you salve when I bring you back your basket."
"You don't have to. I'll heal up eventually."
"It is rude to reject a gift, Yuum k’iino’."
"Then I look forward to receiving your generous gift, In ba'ate'el."
She offered a small bow before slipping her hand out of hers and walked back up the small hill.
When she was no longer visible, Namora turned around to see her cousin and Attuma grinning at her.
"Thank you for the food, Yuum k’iino’." K'uk'ulkan tried to imitate her voice as he turned to Attuma. "Yuum k’iino’, I love you."
"I love you too, In ba'ate'el." Attuma imitated Oni before making fake smooching sounds as he wrapped an arm around the god king. "Eat well. Enjoy." He cooed between chuckles.
Namora was burning dark purple as she glared at them and attempted to take their heads off with a few smooth pebbles.
Both men cackled and hid below the water as she stomped forward.
She huffed. "You are not safe below the water either."
They roared with laughter as the warrior bonked them over the head before settling down to eat her meal.

Okay i'm curious (and not believing my generally racist dad): what do you guys eat on a daily basis? like give me a gauge of the usual American diet
I want to believe it's not just fast food 24/7 like he says he saw on a trip in the past
Lmao we can cook at home?
Like. Literally. Any kind of dish we want to make, we can make at home just like anyone else. Whatever combo of protein, vegetables, carbs, etc. Sometimes we make unhealthy stuff similar to what you'd buy at fast food places, sometimes we make healthier options. Sometimes we look up recipes from other cultures.
Like. Things my family cooked in the last few days: beef pot pie, scrambled eggs, grilled cheese, peanutbutter and jelly toast, roasted chicken breast with mashed potatoes and brussels sprouts, some kind of beef thing my mom tossed in the slowcooker that turned into just shreds of meat which was perfect for a sandwich with cheese, I was feeling real bad the other day so I just had a sliced banana for breakfast.
And I mean. We ate some junk inbetween. Snack stuff or things like bagel bites. And on occasion we would go out to eat or get fast food but not like. Every day.
(Also like. Fast food is not the /worst/ thing. It is far from healthy, we all know that. But if you're limited on time and energy, it's a quick and cheap way to get the protein, carbs, and fats that your body does genuinely need. @ anyone who has seen 'Supersize Me': that was debunked so hard despite them showing it to middle schoolers.)

the thing is, when people break up, a lot of times the only thing that gets talked about is all the bad things. they talk about all the things they hated about their partner, they talk about who their partner was in their worst moments. but the love was there. the love was there, and it mattered. it mattered more than all the other stuff.
i loved it when she smiled. she had a lovely smile, like it was startled out of her, like a sunshower. sometimes she would laugh at things that i didn’t think were as funny as she did but i laughed along anyway because it was contagious and something to be bottled, something to be treasured. i would open up a call to her on facetime and she would answer with her smile and even if it wasn’t a good day, i would think, it’s a good day, because then it was.
she was better at words than anyone i know. better than me, by miles and miles, better than published authors I’ve read and loved, better than my English teachers growing up. she could turn the world into poetry. she turned me into poetry, which is a hard thing to do, because there’s not a lot about me you can turn into anything beautiful. she managed to, though. she had an uncanny ability to put words to almost any feeling, a talent that only ever failed her when we both probably needed it most. or maybe it didn’t, and i just forgot how to listen.
there’s not a person on the planet who can make me laugh the way she could. she spit dark humor and wit like she wrote the language of it. we would be talking about grief and rock bottom and fear, and then i would be laughing and i’d never feel guilty for laughing when i probably shouldn’t be because she always made it feel okay. i think she always wanted me to laugh, and i think she knew that sometimes it was either laugh or cry, and if crying would break me, she would make sure I could have a laugh and feel something close to whole again, even if just for a moment.
she’s stubborn, and i loved that about her. i say loved, past tense, because now it’s that same stubbornness that keeps her isolated from the people who love her. she’s stubborn in her insistence that everyone hates her, and now i don’t get to be there to remind her that that’s far from the truth. but she’s also stubborn in her love for people, too. she’ll love them, against her better judgment. almost especially against her better judgment. and she stubbornly loved me as best as she could when it was hardest to love me. (i wonder if that was against her better judgment, too.)
her ideas bled into mine, and vice versa. i don’t know that i’ll ever find another person who completes all my half-finished thoughts so perfectly. she could spin my prompts into works of art, she could take the barest skeleton of an idea and breathe life into it. i only wanted to read things she wrote. i only wanted to write things she wanted to read. this is evidence of that.
she made me feel safe. she made me want to tuck myself into her side, to wrap the covers tight around the both of us and play a game of make-believe where neither of us ever gets hurt again. she once woke me up from a nightmare and promised me i was okay, and i believed it. i cried my grief next to her in the dark, but she was awake and there for me and i could feel it and it was good. she was good. she is good. i hope someone is telling her that. i hope someone is making her feel safe, too.
she has a list of safe foods, and i find it incredibly endearing. quesadillas and rice from monterrey’s. grilled cheese sandwiches. chicken tenders. i once made her baked potato soup and she liked it, and i still remember that feeling of triumph and pride that i could make something she liked. i only wanted to make things she liked. i wonder what else i could have gotten her to love if we’d stayed together longer. (i guess we’ll never know.)
she’s brave. i don’t know where she gets it from, but i often found myself jealous of it. not in any malicious sort of way, but in the “i wish i were like that” way. she would wake up feeling worse than me and then do the day better. she would try to climb up the tree and i wouldn’t. she would face grief head on and i would flinch away from it. she would love fiercely knowing it could backfire on her spectacularly. i would love under the illusion that it wouldn’t.
she’s kind. she’s resilient and hardworking. she’s intelligent and perceptive and picks up on all the things that aren’t being said, and she tries her hardest, always, so i should have known better than to think what happened in the end was because of a lack of trying. it still hurt, though, and it was still the end. i wish i could change it. but i promise you, she is still all of these wonderful and gorgeous things. and i am so lucky to have gotten to love her.
i hope someone loves her as much as i did. (do.)
i hope they love her better.
— “a love letter to my ex”

Wellness Wednesday:
Cleaning Out My Closet Fridge
Part of my wellness journey is working on my financial wellness - What are my spending habits? What can I do differently? What can I cut out?
Couple weeks ago I challenged myself to use up as much as groceries/pantry supplies before buying more groceries - maybe meal prep here and there.
Well, I've been doing good on clearing out the freezer - working on the fridge and pantry now.
I noticed I had an abundance of deli meat and breads laying around - so - I was very conscious about eating up those foods first before they went bad.
To be honest I was little more conscious this week because not too long ago I had entire loaf of bread get moldy and I just despise when that happens.
So - I at a ton of sammies this week. Really spiced it up by changing my breads, meats, and cheeses - never got boring.
Other added benefit - I saw significant drop on my weekly grocery bill. A practice I want to entertain more in the future.
Another step to help out my pocket book is I made the decision not to buy any more expensive nuts - aka - my Wonderful's Pistachios. I am going to see if I can find a more cost effective snack alternative... Plus, I still have plenty to finish off in my cabinets.
Beyond my wallet and weekly diet - I broke the 2 week plateau streak and hit some weight loss (slightly over 4 pounds). Felt good considering I didn't do anything besides partake in some extra deli meats.
Sleep-wise - man-oh-man - I need to sleep. I hate how this is a constant battle.
Socially - saw some fam - good times/stories/jokes - and - tomorrow I plan on seeing some good friends at the movies... and hope to enjoy said movies.

Weigh in, OMAD, Nightmares, School
Hello again!!!! I almost don't want to weigh in today, I just feel bigger... there's no way those extra cals didn't do anything to me. I'm really nervous but, it will be a learning experience. Today... 88.6 lbs! Only a 0.2 lbs loss, but I'm grateful that it's a loss at all!!!! A little turns into a lot very quickly!!
I'm so happy that I didn't gain from yesterday.. isn't that a miracle!! Onto everyone's favorite subject: OMAD! Like I said yesterday, today's OMAD is simply one boiled egg. It's because I overate yesterday, 357 instead of 255 cal. That's really embarrassing.. I still can't believe I ate so much. All because of one chicken nugget and one egg yolk, I was 102 cals above my planned meal!!! Never say "just one" or "just a little!" Don't worry, I exercised well that day. Along with my egg, I am going to have black coffee and diet soda, and of course water. I am excited to eat this because I'm excited to feel hungry even after... maybe I'll just go one egg the rest of the week too, because then I would be sure that I fixed my week. This is super exciting!!!!!! I really feel in my heart I'm starting to enjoy this process. It's important to have a positive mindset about this because then it makes you happy, thinking about eating so little... it gives me butterflies in my stomach and that excited feeling in my chest. Maybe it's a bad thing, but to me I feel more beautiful with each passing day, every bit of weight lost, feeling lighter and lighter, like I am light itself.. feathery and soft, inside and out.. it just doesn't compare to anything else, it's its own very special feeling that I work hard to earn. Hard work pays off very well! The pride I feel later is always better than the pleasure I feel in the moment.
Okay, enough of my euphoric rantings! I haven't been getting good sleep lately as you know.. I had a terrible sleep last night!! I had terrible nightmares last night, I hate having bad dreams. Something funny from one of my nightmares though, I had a dream that I had a bmr of 200 cals... I woke up from that one and laughed after ☺︎ The only good dream I had was that I baked cookies, very delicious chocolate chip cookies with a chocolate filling, and then I ate toast with honey, and a packet of m&m cookies, and some other delicious things, but then I woke up right as I was about to make a grilled cheese sandwich!!! It was really frustrating, but I woke up feeling full, so... great dream to end my series of bad dreams!
At least there was a good dream to end the bad. Very comforting. You know what else is comforting? SCHOOL STARTS SOON!!!!!!!! I'M SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!! In about a month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy it makes me want to cry, school soon!! I can't wait!!! Also, very exciting, if I keep up with my planned meal and follow it well, I am guaranteed to be BELOW my current ugw of 85 lbs by the first day!!! It's so exciting it's making me teary eyed!! ☺︎☺︎☺︎☺︎ I just love school so much, I hope I'll be pretty by the time I get there. I will work very very hard, I will work hard to make myself pretty and work hard in school. You know the saying, "BMI low, grades high?" I will definitely live by this during school ☺︎ School is very important so you should work to do well! I'm really very grateful to be able to attend school. I'm going to a new school this year. It's because I'm starting high school, it's my freshman year!!! It's a lot to learn, credits and stuff, it's really confusing, but I think I'll learn how it works better soon. Yay ☺︎
Other than this, not much left to say. It's been a good day, now I'm going to walk to get my 10k steps in. I changed my watch face for this reason, I like it a lot. Easy to see my steps, cals burned and my heart rate. Cute and simple!
If you read this far then thank you!!! I hope this wasn't too long of a post for today!!!
Lots of love, heart-of-wool ���︎

After like three days of thinking, if you're still open to offering adulthood advice, the plague of my existence: how the fuck do you decide what to make for dinner (including the 'what should I put on my meal plan list?' step)?
this is a hard one, because the short answer is basically just "vibes"
let's try to break it down at least into some tips, though.
in my house, any time we try a new meal or version of a recipe, everyone casts a vote: "I would do it again" or "I wouldn't do that again". this is usually done in a melodramatic way and turned into a playful fight. strict democratic majority doesn't always win if the cook is in the minority, but it's a start. meals that people would do again get added to the List.
the List has abso-fucking-lutely every communally edible meal on it. meals that are close variations on each other are all included. the List is sorted by categories like "chicken", "beef", "pork", "vegetarian", "pasta", like a cookbook. sides and desserts are not on it. you could make a separate list for them but it's not as important and wouldn't be a capital L List.
if you're looking at your List and it's pitiful, try out some of your favorite meals' cousins! not just white people taco night, but enchiladas! different stir-fry sauces! and then try some terrifying american casseroles with too much cheese and some canned cream soup!! they ain't bad!!!! look at different crockpot meats for ciabatta sandwiches, french dip et al! stuff your chicken breast with something!! go nuts!
do not consult the List when you have just eaten a full meal. do not consult the List when you are in the process of cooking a meal and your whole house smells deliciously like that food, so that the question "What would everyone like to eat this week?" is inevitably met with "idk the thing I'm smelling right now"
pose the question, "What would everyone like to eat this week?" take suggestions. write them down.
supplement these suggestions (or your blank sheet of paper if people are feeling unhelpful) with meals from the List. in my house, we cook...a lot.....like...six days a week. so when we're making a list we aim for one meal with pasta, one with rice, one Asian, one Mexican, one soup (or two in winter), a grilled meal in summer, with no more than two beefs. we try not to repeat anything sooner than three weeks, or we'll get tired of it and ruin it for much longer than three weeks. depending on what AcTiViTiEs we've got planned for the week we'll plan a crockpot meal or a sauce/soup we have in the freezer for that night. you want to balance your weekly plan with some less intensive meals so you don't get overwhelmed.
we arrange our meals into a Plan, but it's not set in stone. we were supposed to have sloppy joes on Tuesday but the meat accidentally was frozen and we didn't have time to thaw it out so we had chicken fajitas instead. not the end of the world.
and the true tip from the Cate Clan: always have pancake/waffle mix in the pantry and a frozen pizza in the freezer, so if you can't bear to make a full meal you have easy options.

tuesday lunchbox: prank lunchbox
Thena, Kingo and Ikaris gawk at her lunchbox. She woke up late this morning so she didn’t see what Gil put in the box. And she’s about to have lunch with Kingo and Ikaris so that they can discuss work. Work is the last thing she cares about at the moment.
“Did he make a mistake or something?” Kingo asks.
“Did you two have a fight?” Ikaris eyes her suspiciously.
“We did not fight,” Thena glares at him.
“Then why does your lunchbox only have white rice and dried seaweed?”
“Hold on,” Kingo cuts him off, “Gil would never do this to Thena, even if they were fighting. He’s not that petty. Thena, try digging up the rice.”
They all hold their breath as Thena separates the rice and seaweed with her spoon.
“There they are,” Ikaris chuckles.
“See?” Kingo smiles, “I said he isn’t that kind of person. He’s probably bored and wanted to pull a prank on you.”
“And yet you look quite relieved,” Ikaris snorts.
“I just thought how bad your hangry would be if he actually forgot to put other side food in there.”
“Overtime works bad,” Thena says.
“That would be our situation today anyway,” Ikaris shakes his head.
“Let’s just eat then,” Kingo shrugs.
Thena sighs. She can’t escape work today but at least she can enjoy a real lunch after thinking that she would have to eat only white rice and dried seaweed. Gil hid a lot of side food under a thick layer of rice, undoubtedly on purpose. They are all her favourites; sauté salmon, fried squid with mayonnaise and a pinch of chili powder, asparagus and broccoli stir-fried with oyster sauce. He knows and remembers very well what she likes and doesn’t like. She likes when her meals have something spicy. She loves sweets, but not too sweet. She doesn’t like bitter food, he even remembers her weird grudge against okra.
She devours her lunchbox while Kingo and Ikaris are sharing a box of grilled eel rice and a roasted chicken sandwich they bought at Eternal. They arrived at the shop even earlier than yesterday but again there was only one box left. It seems like more and more people have heard about this impressive lunch set and wanted to try it. Maybe by the end of the summer, Gil would add it to Eternal’s fixed menu and maintain the limited policy so that his coffee shop won’t be turning into an eel restaurant.
“It was shocking, wasn’t it?”
“Yeah, it snapped me out of my grogginess,” she rolls her eyes and pulls her car to a stop at the red light, “I was wide awake for the rest of the day.”
She listens to his laugh on the other end of the phone, “I bet you already thought of quite a few ways to get back at me at the time.”
“Maybe just one or two,” she scrunches her nose, taking a right turn to the familiar street.
“Oh, I think I see your car,” he says. She speeds up a bit and Eternal comes into her view. Her nose stings with emotions when she spots Gil, still wearing his work apron, standing at the front door and waiting for her. It’s been almost two months since the last time she had to stay at the office until past 9 pm. Even though it’s only because they have too much work, even Kingo and Ikaris left at the same time as she did, but it looks like Gil has been worried. She stops her car in front of his shop and jumps to his chest. She can feel his arms around her and he asks:
“Have you eaten?”
“I have,” she rubs her cheeks on his apron, “Me and the guys called pizza.”
Gilgamesh always asks her that question whenever they can’t eat together. Perhaps many people would find it lame, even annoying but Thena finds it incredibly endearing, it’s likely that because it comes from him and he only ever has good intentions. But let’s face it, you usually just ask the question to the ones you love or really care about. You care about their well-being, you always want to know that they eat well, sleep well, those are human’s most basic needs.
“You’ve worked hard,” he nuzzles her hair.
“Thanks for waiting for me,” she closes her eyes, clutching at the back of his shirt.
Inside, the lights are still on, most of the chairs are put upside down on the tables so that he can clean up, except for one table with a cup on top, where he was sitting. The lights in the kitchen are on as well and she can hear the faint sound of a mixer.
“Who’s in the kitchen?”
“It’s Makkari. She took Kingo’s advice and started her baking vlog channel. I stay to prepare tomorrow’s ingredients and help her set up her camera and all,” Gil pulls out another chair and helps her in, “I think she’s making a peach mousse cake.”
“Will we get to try some of it?” Thena smiles, a mention of sweets cheers her up in no time.
“Chances are high. Can I make you a drink first?”
“Any suggestions from my chef?” She puts her elbows on the table, cupping her face with her hands.
“Special latte with lots of love,” Gil winks and Thena giggles, her cheeks flushed.
Gil makes her a cup of hot latte, with his full combo latte art that she thinks it looks like six tortured faces but in fact it’s a “smiling bouquet”, according to him. It’s delicious nevertheless. Gil refills his milk tea cup, then sits down across from her. He gives her an impromptu massage on her left hand while she’s sipping her drink. She starts talking about her day and soon enough, they once again laugh about her lunchbox.
“Very creative, I’ll give you that. But don’t do it again.”
“How about once a month? I’ll leave your favourites beneath the rice each time.”
“I want scallops next time.”
“Consider it’s done,” he presses a kiss to the back of her hand and switches to massage the other.
Thena asks him about his day and he complains to her that this morning he wanted to decorate the menu board at the front door but Sprite demanded that he should never do it.
“I know that’s her job but today is her second exam and I just wanted to help,” Gil pouts, “Instead she yelled at me and shooed me away.”
“Did you use your boss card?”
“No, I didn’t.”
“Use it next time then,” she wants nothing more than to kiss away his pout, “You indulge her too much.”
“Could it be that my drawing skills are bad?”
For the record, he’s looking at her with his puppy eyes, and that affects a lot on her following answer.
“You have a unique style, it’s just that Sprite can’t see it,” She shrugs, “However, you decorate your food like little masterpieces, and no one can deny it.”
Now she’s the one that picks up his hands and gives him a massage. She treats his large, calloused hands as gently as she can, counting every old and new cut and burned mark on them, the hands of a true chef.
“Your hands are precious, don’t let anyone make you believe otherwise,” she says.
“You too,” he grins, nodding at the painting that she gifted him last Christmas.
“I’ll paint you another, it’s summer anyway.”
“Then I’ll hang it on that wall over there,” he squeezes her hands once.
Makkari puts two slices of pink peach mousse cake down in front of them.
Enjoy! the pastry chef/new vlogger smiles, signing at Gil, Thanks for helping me set up my “studio”. I cleaned the kitchen for you.
“Thank you!” He signs back, “Wanna join us?”
Nah, I know you guys miss each other. Just continue your date, I’m going home now.
Gil blushes hard but insists, “At least let me walk you home. You shouldn’t go alone at this time.”
“He’s right,” Thena says, “I know your place isn’t far from here but it would be safer if he went with you.”
Fine, Makkari rolls her eyes, Just so you would stop worrying.
“Yeah,” Gil gets up and Thena helps him untie his apron, “If Druig knew we let you walk home alone late at night, we’d never hear the end of it.”
He bends down to kiss Thena, she lifts a hand to caress his face.
“I’ll be right back.”
“I’ll try to save some cake for you.”
“Well, you can eat both slices if you want to,” he rubs his nose against hers.
“But you love peach cake.”
“I love you more.”
Makkari slaps Gil’s back, Are you going or not?
“Right, sorry, let’s go,” he says, giving Thena one last wave then runs after Makkari, who’s already out of the door. Thena looks out the window until they disappear around the corner before digging her fork into the cake. She sincerely hopes that Makkari would succeed in this vlog thing, and it has very little to do with her getting free pastries on their late-night dates at Gil’s shop.

YIPPEE also: i forgot to mention these two in my list of Music Mary Introduced Norman To (iirc it was elton john, fleetwood mac, and billy joel) but. she strikes me as the type to listen to cyndi lauper and kate bush. this definitely isn’t a prompt i just felt the need to bring it up
i have. a few headcanons but i dont wanna flood your inbox so im just gonna rattle off as many of em as i can :D👍
norman derives a lot of comfort from stuffed animals but since getting back from the institution he’s become really embarrassed about it
he has a pretty limited range of safe foods because either Taste Bad or Texture Bad. usually Texture Bad
he’s really warm. he doesn’t notice it, but whenever mary hugs him or something she’s like “holy shit you’re cozy”
tbh. i feel like norman forgets to eat pretty often. partly because sometimes he just… doesn’t realize when he’s hungry until it starts to Feel Really Bad
now that ive written these i am hella curious as to your thoughts on ‘em! again they’re not quite prompts but they can def be fodder for something!
I LOVE ALL OF THESE!! Also don’t u dare be afraid of flooding my inbox, I WISH my Inbox was flooded.
I can imagine the institution really did it’s best to just crush any decent coping mechanisms Norman had. They probably thought it would help him “grow up” or deter his age regression (I know that’s only technically canon to the book, but Tony performs those parts even when it’s not necessarily in the script. He’s so good at knowing when to put Norman in a childlike mindset). Suggestion: Modern AU where Mary takes Norman to Build-A-Bear?
The thing that’s so funny to me about Norman’s horrendous eating habits is that Tony was JUST AS BAD 💀 his milk drinking was fucking infamous. He lived on grilled cheese sandwiches and chocolate junket pudding. He adored hamburgers and literally has multiple quotes saying “I was trying to listen to this director/someone who was speaking to me, but I was sooooo hungry I wanted a cheeseburger SOOOOOO bad 😫”. They both love to eat garbage basically, and u know what? Slay.
And now I’m like really thinking about the stuff Norman eats and Jesus Christ. it really is just candy corn, fried chicken steak, grilled cheese sandwiches, peanut butter, milk… like… girl … EAT A REAL MEAL 💀💥 even when he DOES remember to eat, he’s just eating the most horrendous crap. No wonder he doesn’t put on weight, he’s eating like.. styrofoam.
Also the Kate Bush fan hc for Mary is SO real. I bet she likes The Police too I can totally imagine her and Norman jamming out to some of their tracks.

Take a Taste: with delicious burger meal at Tokyo Tokyo Restaurant [Recorded: May 6th, 2023]
Hello! It’s time for another “Take a Taste”! The series is about delicious food with my two paper dolls.
And today, my 🎂30th birthday celebration 🥳 is still ongoing. That is, until this Monday. Nonetheless, here are my recorded photos from yesterday at the delicious Japanese cuisine-Filipino made called "Tokyo Tokyo" 🇯🇵🇵🇭🍱🥢, which debuted in 1985. And much like existing running Philippine restaurants, it is spread over 68 branches throughout this country (as of 2019). But, is it worth my celebratory meal? 🤔 Let's find out! 🙂
If you haven’t seen my previous episode, then please [CLICK ME!].
So, without further ado, let’s get started:
1st to 7th Image(s): ↑
• First off, we're inside the SM Grand Central (in Monumento, Caloocan City) for a long stroll while searching for a restaurant to eat. 😊🚶🚶‍♀️🏢 Since it's my 30th birthday, I was gonna picked another delicious burger from a different restaurant brand like "Zark's Burgers" 🍔, "EBC - Everything But Cheese" 🧀, or even "G&G Taiwan Famous Fried Chicken" 🍗, the latter of which offers burgers with chicken patty (you know, "Chicken Sandwich" 🍗🥪.). However, there are SO many delicious restaurants that I had to pick ONE before customers occupies the table spot. 🤔 So, we ended up at the "Tokyo Tokyo" restaurant, where the Japanese decors & atmosphere are very impressive to their restaurant standards both exterior & interior. *Sniff* Mmmm... Can you smell the authentic Japanese decor, you two? Yeah, doesn't love Japanese culture? 🥰🇯🇵⛩️🍱🥢 Nonetheless, we've already filled an order & wait for a few hours. 🙂🧾⌚

8th & 9th Image(s): ↑
• Minutes later, our orders arrived at our table. I ordered the Wagyu Cheeseburger with 5 pcs. of potato balls for a side & a small red tea drink for only ₱285 ($5). 🍔🥔🥤 *Sniff* Yum-yum! My paper dolls are excited to taste it! Me too, I hope these are good! 😋🤤And not a bad price though. 👌
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
10th to 13th Image(s): ↑
• Alright, let's try out a single potato ball first before we go to the main food. There's also an honest mayo sauce, so let's try dipping it. 🥔🙂*first bite the potato ball* Mmmm... Pretty good, the first time I ate their cooked hushpuppy (as they called it, if you're outside my country). My paper dolls grab a bite, as well, and they're impressed the potato ball/hushpuppy. (just imagine) We also try without dipping the mayo, and it still taste good! Yum-yum! 😋👍 We're of to a good start, my secret friends!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
14th to 16th Image(s): ↑
• Alright, let's go straight to the main food, the "Wagyu Cheeseburger"! 😁🍔Sounds very promising, but my paper dolls are curious to see what's inside the bun? 🤔 Okay, let's have a look! 🙂
• [14th & 15th Images] After I removed the stick (which is nice to hold), here you could see the genuine grill marks on the Wagyu beef patty & melted cheese on top. 🥩🧀 Beneath the patty, a mish-mash of veggies (lettuce & cabbage) for a little pinch of healthy. 🥬Veggies are important ingredients throughout the fast food menu items 😉☝️, it could be on salads, sandwiches, or hamburgers (,etc...) 🥗🥪🍔. So, we should practice eating veggies, right you two? Yeah, they get it. 😊👍
• [16th Image] Alright, enough explanatory, let's assemble my burger & take a bite! 😁🤲🍔
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
17th to 21st Image(s): ↑
• [17th to 20th Images] *bite & munch on the burger* Mmmm... 🍔😋Hmmm... At first glance 🤔, I didn't get the taste of the Wagyu beef patty, to be honest. 😕Heck, my paper dolls didn't get the picture of the Wagyu patty after they went their first bite. The only ones we catch the taste are the veggies & melted cheese. Unless, if we go munch down a couple of times until we get the taste of the Wagyu patty. What do you think, you two? How's your taste in the Wagyu cheeseburger? My paper dolls said "quite lacking flavor". 😕 Mhm, I see. But, when it comes to presentation, I'd say a decent quality. 👌
• [21st Image] If you do not satisfy the Wagyu Cheeseburger, how about I gave you two pieces of potato balls (or hushpuppies). 😊🥔🥔 After all, they're a pretty good side dish! 😋 So, go get a piece, you two. They're all yours! 😊 (BTW: I gave another two potato balls to my parents for share. 🥰👨‍👩‍👦)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
22nd to 26th Image(s): ↑
• [22nd to 24th Images] Since you finished the potato balls, what are we gonna do with the mayo sauce? Hmmm... 🤔 I think I know what I'm gonna do! 😃💡let's spread it onto Wagyu patty as an experiment! 😁🍔 Side note: the bottom bun is now small after numerous biting. lol 😅
• [25th & 26th Images] *Taking another bite* Mmmm... Surprisingly, it worked! 😃Putting mayo onto Wagyu Cheeseburger is more satisfying than before! 🍔😋Do you want a taste? *My paper dolls biting* They said "This is better!", and I could agree more! My experiment is a success! 😁👍
• As for the red tea beverage, I'm satisfied the quench & refreshing. Mmmm! 🥤😋
Overall:
• Mmmm... What do I think about the Wagyu Cheeseburger? 🍔🤔To be honest, the potato balls (or hushpuppies) are worth my appetite more than the burger itself. And man, this is my first time tasting their hushpuppies! 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔😋Tasting Wagyu beef patty, on the other hand, was also my first time trying it but, I didn't catch the quality of the Wagyu flavor. 😕🤷 On the bright side, the presentation of the burger was pretty good ☺️👌, never mind holding it with my hands & experience greasy fingers.The bottom line, they should send me plastic gloves & wear them before I eat the burger. 🤲🍔If I want a satisfied grilled beef burger, I'm better off with Burger King's signature Whopper over Tokyo Tokyo's Wagyu Cheeseburger. And yes, I've already tasted the Whopper before from my last year's birthday, and man, I'm satisfied with my 2022's birthday celebration appetite! 🍔😋This year, I guess it's alright. ☺️👌At least, I'm experienced eating at "Tokyo Tokyo" restaurant, and hopefully, I will try other menus than a burger, you know. 😉🍱🥢
Well, that’s all for now. 🥳🎁 AND HAPPY "LATE" 30TH BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎂🎉
