#Now I want arroz con leche

[dreamwritersworld]

favorite crime. (Miles morales x reader)

For as long as Y/n and miles could remember they’ve known each other since they were children! Anytime Y/n needed comfort from her two parents constant arguing or miles was just far too stressed, you know they were with each other.

Everyone could see except them, that something was growing and they yearned for each other. That was until there was a shift and something became between them.

Every Sunday Y/n would come over for family dinner, bringing a meal she prepared with the happiest smile….it started with him missing the most important dinner.

“Hola, Mrs.Morales! How are you? I made arroz con leche for tonight, hope you like it!! Where’s miles?”

Rio’s face smiled any chance she could when she saw the way Y/n loved miles, he was always the first one she’d look for.

“Miles!…Miles!”

The mother put her head to her forehead sighing as silence was the only response to her calling.

“Ugh he must be asleep. Go get him please!”

Rio rushed the food to the table setting up her meal.

“Miles…”

Y/n walked in quietly to see an empty room and her whole demeanor changed, for the first time Miles missed dinner.

“I-um miles isn’t here. Maybe he went to go grab something-“

“Miles?! He would never miss a Sunday dinner with you! Must be something super important, you know he wouldn’t do it on purpose hun-“

Jeff gave Y/n hope that, that’s all it was.

“Oh- Hi Mr.morales, you’re probably right!”

They all sat down and began eating their meal, although Y/n enjoyed the moment of calmness compared to her normal home…there was an ache in her heart that something was wrong. Even with all the spider duties Miles promised he’d never miss anything with her.

Those promises were broken. The closer miles got to Gwen, the farther Y/n came to mind. The poor girl would come home soaking wet after waiting for miles at the places he told her to meet him at. All Y/n could do was text him and hope for the best, it was harder to talk to him nowadays. When they did hangout Miles couldn’t be any more distant than he already was.

At least In those small changes when they hung out there wasn’t a deep sadness, maybe boredness from Y/n not being Gwen…but now Miles was hard to hangout with, something was clearly always on his mind and bothering him. It hurt Y/n to see him so frustrated, sad and quiet…so she finally asked him.

“Miles what’s wrong? Is it the spider stuff? You haven’t seemed as happy..”

The boy looked up with a surprised face, it had been so long since they had a genuine conversation that he forgot Y/n knew him like the back of his hand.

“It’s just- ugh it’s Gwen. She’s gone now. I miss her, I need her.”

Y/n’s heart broke hearing the words and behavior miles used to do for her, complain about missing Y/n to his mother. He used to always miss Y/n. However, Y/n was far too kind to deny his clear emotions of frustration right now so she passed a smile.

“It’s ok miles, if she left it’s just because she returned to her world. That’s ok if it means she’s happier.”

Her own words hurt her, she loved miles so much…if he were the rain she would never open an umbrella. Instead, she’d lie down on the concrete and enjoy every drop that laid on her skin, she’d drown there even if it meant drowning in him.

“What? No. She’s the happiest she ever was here! You don’t know her! You don’t get it.”

Y/n’s eyes widened at the anger and yelling Miles was now putting towards her, Y/n was the only one miles could talk about Gwen with and she didn’t get it, not the way he wanted her to.

“Miles..you don’t have to yell I- I do get it! I see it. You’re displaying exactly how you feel for me to know all of it-“

“Just be quiet and go Y/n.”

Y/n’s eyebrows furrowed and tears built up when she turned around to grab her backpack. No matter how upset miles was he never yelled and was never seriously mad at her. He was just so frustrated that it was Y/n there, not Gwen. Miles could feel the tension..he felt bad but not enough to apologize so when Y/n took one last look at him while he faced away from her she could feel her heartache and he could hear her rapid heartbeat, her hushed panic breaths, and the small tear falling onto her jacket..although it was very faint.

For some reason miles got a sense, a bad one…something to do with Y/n but he ignored it. What he didn’t know was that it meant their paths were changing…

!❤️💙!

Hope you like it! This is my first story about something other than avatar so it’s not the best, sorry about that! Love you guys though! Hope your doing good!

And when I call, you come home

but you had to go, i know, i know, i know

(Feliz Día de los Muertos, everyone)

——————————————————————————

When Tara had asked Sam to build an Ofrenda this year, she never imagined that it would be one for Amber Freeman.

Sam wasn’t a stranger to an Ofrenda or to Día de los Muertos itself. Before Tara’s father left, the Carpenter’s made one every year after Halloween. The sisters would spend days leading up to the holiday painting pictures, cutting out drawings, and baking food for their past loved ones. Though the sisters didn’t know their dead Abuela very well, their mother did, and that was enough.

If she closed her eyes and pictures the past Ofrendas, she could practically taste the Pan dulce her mother made and the smell of Arroz con leche simmering on the stove.

It was strange coming back to her sister and bringing more death with her. Sam knows that Tara went through hell without her, but she never imagined that she would bring dead bodies with her when she came back to Woodsboro.

The devil never cared who it took back to hell with him. All he did was take and never return.

Yet, Sam wasn’t so sure that God was listening either. She had spent too many nights kneeling on hardwood floors; her rosary pressed into her palms so hard that it left a trail of cuts through her skin. No matter the pain or suffering she or Tara went through, God was silent. It was like their prayers were just an echo, bouncing back through them instead of making their way to heaven.

That didn’t quite matter anymore. Sam had Tara safe now, and she could play God and ensure Tara survived. She would play God if that were what it took to keep her little sister alive—because she wasn’t afraid of death. She laughed in the face of it, teeth bared, hands out, ready to fight. Nothing could stop her from backing down, not even detaching himself.

Tara was afraid. She was scared of death and its consequences. Sam could see it quite clearly now. She never really understood why Tara cried so hard when the twin’s dog died or why her little sister held her breath when they passed graveyards. It all seemed futile to fear something that would always happen anyway. No one could escape death. It was all going to happen for them anyway.

So here Sam was, helping finish the final touches of Amber Freeman’s Ofrenda. A photo portrait of the girl sat in the middle, scattered rose petals and several types of canned soda all over the table. There was a work teddy bear, presumably Tara’s, propped against the photo. Bags of candies and chips were scattered alike, a few polaroids of the young girls holding hands placed delicately on the table.

Sam wasn’t fond of the girl, not even by a long shot. The fact that she had dated her little sister was enough to make Sam want to smash up the photo frame and set fire to the table itself. But she wasn’t going to do that. It was the Day of the Dead, and though she hated Amber Freeman, she respected the traditions she grew up with.

Tara stepped back, slipping the lighter in her pocket. The candle by Amber’s photo flickered in the still air, signaling that Amber was crossing over to the land of the living. Sam could feel Tara’s breath pick up, and she saw her little sister’s body tense. Even though Tara wasn’t supposed to be standing for longer than an hour, her little sister was still upright after hour three.

If Sam could, she would force Tara back into bed and dote on her every need.

But that’s not what Tara wanted, and Sam had to respect that. Sam was the one who ruined their relationship first, and she had respected their new boundaries.

“I miss her,” Tara softly said, her hands limp at her side.

Sam snapped her head up from staring at the floorboards, struggling to keep the venom out of her tone. Various retorts and snide comments sat on her tongue, waiting to be used. But she couldn’t. So she swallowed them back and tried to respond evenly.

“Why?” Sam replied, her voice strangled.

Before answering, Tara gently tangled her fingers with Sam’s, squeezing her older sister’s hand tightly. Sam froze at the action, not expecting such contact after years of craving it.

She had to play it cool. This day isn't about her. It was about the dead.

Her little sister spoke quietly, her voice meek. “She didn’t love me like I loved her. I know that. She was my everything, and I was just an experience for her. But love doesn’t go away just because she’s gone. I love her still,” Tara paused, licking her lips. “-And I know you hate that.”

Sam cringed, her eyes closing in the shame of being caught. “I’m sorry,” she whispered, squeezing Tara’s hand.

The two stood there for a moment, observing the Ofrenda quietly. Sam swallowed hard and found the words she was struggling to string together.

“I hate that. You’re right. But she’s important to you, and for the next few days, we will honor that. For the next few days, we will let her linger in our lives as a shadow and say goodbye to her,” she said, pausing to look at Tara.

Her little sister looked up at her, tear-filled eyes shining with love and gratitude. Sam smiled, squeezing Tara’s hand.

“But after this, we let her go. And we honor each other and love each other every day, okay? You and I will handle everything together now. I’m here. She will leave us in a few days. I’m here.”

She wasn’t so sure if she was convincing Tara or herself.

Tara paused for a few minutes, sniffling and whimpering softly. Sam just held her sister’s hand, her heart aching. Every bone inside her wanted to bring Tara in and keep her close. But they weren’t there yet. Hand-holding was risky enough, and Sam didn’t want to ruin what they had right now. One day, maybe more. But not today.

Quietly, Tara replied, her voice husky with tears. “I don’t want to make an Ofrenda for you anytime soon. I want you to stay. Just stay alive. It doesn’t have to be with me.”

“Por favor, no me hagas encender una vela por tu memoria,” Tara said softly, squeezing Sam’s hand tightly.

Sam stiffened at the request, her own eyes welling up. Selfishly, Sam never thought that anyone would care if she died. Nobody should, anyway. She could never hold a perfect thing and not demolish it. Destruction was all she knew. Death was always knocking. Sam Carpenter was not immortal and very well capable of ending her life on a whim.

But Tara still cared. She didn’t know how or why— as all Sam did was cut Tara down to the bone.

Yet here she was, holding her little sister’s hand, staring at an Ofrenda of an ex-girlfriend while her little sister expressed her love for Sam.

Perhaps there were still beautiful things. Maybe she was deserving of forgiveness.

Maybe the sisters could love each other like they once did.

Without looking at her sister, Sam spoke softly, barely above a whisper. She couldn’t push the words past her lips any louder than that, in fear of coming undone in front of her already emotionally unstable little girl.

“Siempre estaré aquí. Ahora estoy aquí. No me iré—Te quiero, Mi Cielo. I will always love you, and I am staying as long as you want me.”

Tara nodded and wiped her tears off her cheek. “Forever. I want you forever. I love you too, Sam.”

While the sisters basked in the love they confessed, the candle flickering by Amber’s photo portrait slowly flickered out, signaling the end of an era.

Much More Than Just A Princess (Empires SMP)

Summary: Princess Katherine first ball in a long time

Read on AO3

---

Katherine was fine, really! 

This wasn’t her first ball, far from it: she was used to the long, endless, hours that the balls her parents held in Glimmergrove seemed to extend to. Still, it’s been awhile since she was actually invited to one. 

Since the fall and the… rumors about her curse, Katherine hasn’t been invited to any of the Glimmergrove festivities. Her parents kept saying it was for the best, just leave it to them and they would handle everything! So she was kept away from the public eye, hidden as if a curse could just be looked over, swept under a rug and never addressed. The people were happy and the kingdom still was as festive as ever, she just wasn’t part of it anymore.

It was to great surprise when a small child with wings in its shoes knocked on her tailor shop and just handed her a sealed letter with the biggest grin in their face, leaving as soon as they arrived with a messenger bag over their shoulders. The letter, it turned out, was from Lord Protector Sausage, inventing the rulers to the first ball from the newly reestablished Sanctuary. 

The thrill and joy of being invited to such an occasion clouded all her worries. She recalled the grand ballroom of her parents' palace, the blinding lights and the orchestra music that flew through the place, coming as far as to reach her room. And so, she agreed without a second thought.

And, well, she doesn’t regret it, really! 

But now, the anxiety is consuming her.

Sanctuary is different from Glimmergrove. So very different. For starters, there was no castle or ballroom. The ball was being held in the kingdom square, hanging lanterns for atmosphere lighting and small market stalls for food and drinks. 

“It’s good for the local economy! I especially recommend you try plátano maduro frito or arroz con leche!” Sausage said while greeting her, and she had to concede that it was a great idea to do so.

The music was live and played by a small group in the bandstand, instead of the orchestra she was expecting. It was fun and the music was captivating, but she just couldn't shake the feeling of the unfamiliarity of it all. 

And that she was going to, somehow, mess it all up.

Katherine tried to not think too much about the curse, because, really, there was no way to prove it was even real. But in the back of her mind, after years of being accused and told that she was the cause of the fall and the bringer of monsters, she can’t help but believe it. Talking about it is easy, it warns people that something may be off without having to explain over and over again. 

‘I'm possibly cursed’ she would say, nothing more. And people would believe her, taking her words at face value. The other rulers knew, for the most part. And they were still around. But Katherine is cursed, probably since birth. And good things don’t last long with curses around.

 The ball is wonderful and everyone is happy to enjoy the good music and food offered by Sausage. The view is incredible and laughter rings in the air. Joey keeps trying to whisk her for a dance, promising that there will be no one better to dance with, which Katherine keeps refusing. Joey is sweet, but he knows nothing of her, and, despites Katherine’s best efforts, insists that they belong together. 

It’s in one of such tries that Katherine finds herself again.

“My beautiful pirate princess!” Joey declares once again, bowing and holding a small blackthorn in his hand. Katherine can’t even imagine where he found it “Fate has brought us together once again! Say yes and allow me to dance with the rarest jewel in all the seven seas!”

“Joey, this is all very nice and all. But, I don’t really want to dance tonight.” 

“Is it the lack of treasure that makes you decline?” Joey tries, straightening up

“Not really, n-”

“I swear that I’ll bring you the grandest coffer the world could ever see! Even better than all that gold I found last time.”

“Gold?” Asks Joel, the conversation catching his attention “Why, if the princess won’t take it, I would gladly have the treasure you brought.”

“Only Katherine is deserving of that pillage!” Joey laughed, ready to boast about the treasure he had found “Even the most oblivious landlubber could see how great the sphere of gold- and my proposal- was!”

Katherine wouldn’t say great, the proposal coming more as unneeded than anything. But that made Joel pause, his eyes glinting with something unknown.

“... A gold sphere, you say?” His voice was serious, unlike anything Katherine heard from the god.

“Indeed!” Joey continued “Found it in the sky, clearly not being looked after. The scallywag that first had it surely was a naive one to leave it unattended.”

Oh.

Oh no, no. 

Joey was reckless, sure, but to that extent?

“I’m, uh.” Katherine started, walking away from the other two as quickly as possible “I’m gonna go find Sausage!”

She bolted to one of the stands, asking about the Sanctuary Protector. She needed to find him before a full fight escalated. Luckly, they pointed her to a building nearby and she was quick to head in that direction.

She entered in a hurry, relieved to be away from the commotion but still on edge. The building was, evidently, Sausage’s house, the man in question tending to a woman that was sitting on a divan. Her movements were quite sluggish and unrefined, and Katherine thought she might be drunk at first glance.

“You were great, Gem!” Sausage praised “You actually stayed so much longer than we anticipated!”

“Don’t patronize me, Sausage..” The woman -Gem, it was how Sausage called her- retorted.

“I’m not! I swear y-”

“Hey…Sausage?” Katherine interrupted.

“Katherine! Hi!” Sausage beamed “Enjoying the ball, so far?”

“Yes, yes. But, uh…”

“Is something the matter?” He asked, suddenly worried.

“Kind of?” She tried “Joey admitted to stealing Joel’s gold sphere”

“The Stratosphere?!” Sausage exclaimed, distressed. And then started mumbling “¿Se volvió loco? ¡Roba lo más importante de Stratos!” He pauses, taking a deep breath “I’ll deal with that, sure.”

Sausage got up, then glanced at Gem. He hummed and looked back at Katherine.

“Katherine, can you stay with Gem for a minute? Just until one of her aristocrats comes for her.”

She nods “Sure, I can do that!”

Sausage smiles and takes his leave.

And Katherine is suddenly uncomfortable. She can recall seeing Gem before, when most of the rulers went to investigate the End, but they never actually talked. She doubts the other even knows her name.

She rocks back and forth on her feet for a while, ignoring how she’s not acting very princess-like at the moment. Then Gem gently pats the space next to her in the divan.

“Come sit down.” She smiles “Sorry for not being very proper right now.”

“Oh, it’s alright!” Katherine sits quickly “I don’t think, we met before?”

Gem hums “Yeah, not really. You were on the trip to the End, right? I’m Princess Gem, from Dawn.” She extends her hand.

“Yes, I was!” She takes the offer “I’m Princess Katherine, from Glimmergrove”

“The cursed lands?” Gem inquires, in the middle of a yawn.

Katherine freezes at that. She knew, of course, that rumors would spread around about the curse. Yet, she never heard it directed at Glimmergrove. 

“Oh.” She says after a while.

“Was that insensitive?” Gem’s eyes widened, as if just realizing what she said “I’m so sorry! I’m not used to staying up past the sunset, I’m probably not filtering anything right now.”

“It’s fine, really” Katherine insists “Just wasn’t expecting it, that’s all!”

Gem gives a relieved sigh “Oh, thank goodness!”

Katherine nods, unsure of what to say next. She looks down at her hands, wishing to be wielding her battle axe at the moment. She was used to its weight on her hands during most nights, and it brought her comfort to hold it knowing she was actively able to help her people.

But her hand was still holding Gem’s own, none of the two had realized that.  Katherine dislocated her hand carefully, too embarrassed to bring it up.

“Not used to staying up past the sunset?” She brings it up.

Gem nods, her eyes closing for a second too long.

“At Dawn, we wake up with the bees and fall asleep before the moon rises.” She explains “We try to make the most of the hours under the sun.”

“Oh!” Not drunk then, just sleepy “That explains it.”

Gem hummed back, but Katherine supplied no explanation.

“Was that why Sausage was here?” Katherine continued.

“Yes. He was trying to make sure I wouldn’t fall asleep.” Gem explained “I insisted I was fine and that he should just stay at the ball, but he persisted.”

“Yeah, sounds like Sausage.” 

The two laughed a bit, only to Gem to yawn again. Katherine hummed, an idea sparkling up on her.

“I can help you if you wanna stay awake a little longer!”

“You can?” Gem asked, doubt in her voice.

“Yes!” She got up, extending her hand to Gem “You just have to keep it a secret.”

Gem raised an eyebrow at that, but took Katherine’s hand anyway.

“Alright sure.”

Katherine grinned and pulled Gem up. She put her finger in front of her mouth, motioning to make sure she would stay silently. The two of them quietly made their way out of the house, the sound of the ball behind them. Katherine glanced back quickly, seeing that Sausage was still trying to prevent Joey and Joel from escalating their argument, the rest of the rulers a mix of egging them on and expectating the whole ordeal. 

The two princesses made their way to a small clearing  on the outskirts of Sanctuary, far enough to not be seen but close enough that the music could still be faintly heard.

“Uh, Katherine?” Gem started “It’s way too dark for us to be out here.”

“That is exactly why we are here!”

Gem blinked at her “I’m not following this logic. Won’t monsters come after us here?”

Katherine simply smiled, letting go of Gem’s hand. 

The transformation started just like it always did: her outfit fluttered around her, the fabric stiff and so familiar after many nights like this. The dress she wore to the ball was great, her own design and as graceful as a princess gown wear could be, but it was no battle attire. Her monster hunter attire made her feel much more at ease, as if she could do anything as soon as the armor and mask appeared. Her hands hold onto her battle axe, sharp and bigger than her, but comfortable and familiar as soon as its weight settles.

Gem gapes at her.

“I-...you..-What?!”

“Yeah, I know, right?” Katherine swung the axe over her shoulder “I’m a monster slayer. Kind of”

“What do you mean kind of?”

“It’s a secret thing. My parents would kill me if they knew.”

Gem just blinks up at that, clearly ready to ask more questions. But she suddenly gasps in fear, pointing behind Katherine.

“Creeper!”

“Oh, be ready, Gem! It’s starting!” Katherine smiles.

“Ready? I’m not fighting!”

“Didn’t you want to stay awake?” she asks, swinging the axe over to another mob nearby “What better way than thorough adrenaline?”

Gem stared at her, disbelief clear in her eyes, but she jumped into action when a zombie neared her. 

The two princesses kept fighting for a while, laughter bubbling out of them every now and again. Gem tripped over her skirt, and Katherine deemed the hunting done, placing a torch on the ground. She sat down besides Gem, chest heaving but still giddy.

“That was-” Gem started, pausing to breathe “So! Crazy!”

“Did it help?”

“Help?” Gem’s eyes widened “I feel like I could spend a week without sleeping!”

They both laughed. They stayed like that for a moment more, enjoying the faint music of the ball.

"That's good.” Katherine continued “Told you adrenaline would do the trick!”

“Oh, shush!” Gem gently slapped her shoulder “You could at least have told me we were fighting mobs!”

“And ruin the surprise?”

Gem laughed, getting up again and offering her hand to Katherine. She accepted, and once she was stable on the ground again, she destransformed. Gem smiled at her, and then bowed slightly.

“Princess Katherine from Glimmergrove.” she looked up, a cheeky smile on her face “I can still hear the music from here. Would you give me the honor of a dance?”

Katherine laughed, the formal tone so distinct from the careless way the two of them were just a few minutes ago.

“Why, Princess Gem from Dawn” the other giggled “I thought you would never ask.”

Gem puts her other hand to Katherine’s waist, pulling her closer. Katherine puts her hand to Katherines’s shoulder. She follows the other lead as she spins her around the clearing. She steps on Gem’s dress a few times, not used to dancing after all this time, and lets out a few quiet apologies, Gem reassuring that it’s okay. 

And they both laugh when Gem dips her, wings fluttering on Gem’s back, even if it’s a little awkward when she stumbles backwards. Yet, she trusts Gem not to drop her to the ground. 

She knows that they will need to come back to Sanctuary soon, both to the ball and for the Dawn's aristocrats that will be looking for Gem. 

But for now she is happy to spin aimlessly in the clearing, thinking she could get used to this.

Taristan had bowed to her before, acknowledged her place as his queen, but never like this. One knee to the ground, his head bent like a priest at an altar.

*ALEXA PLAY FALSE GOD BY TAYLOR SWIFT* I can’t read this

Woooo!!!!! Doing silly little OC ramble!!! After years of not doing one 😭❤️ click here to see Kara and the silliest ever!!! Sabine!!! 🐎🐎🐎

Kara often got homesick and when she did Sabine knew it. She knew bcs Kara started making a bunch of food from her home country and for Sabine it’s a win and a loss. Win because tamales, tacos, pozole and arroz con leche are fucking great 🤤🤤🤤 loss because Kara gets extremely sad when she gets homesick 😔👎 Sabine tried to comfort Kara but sadly nothing worked because Kara just wanted to go home 😢💔 in an attempt to help ease the pain Sabine ends up learning a bit of Spanish hoping that maybe talking to Kara in her native language might be some help. While learning Sabine has two things on her mind.👆👆‼️ She wishes she could go back in time to when she was undercover in Jorvik highschool and tell herself to pay attention in Spanish class and she also thinks about how soft she is for Kara 😒❤️👎 she went from wanting to destroy Kara and everything she loved to learning a whole new language for the soul rider to help with her homesickness 😟‼️it was a bit crazy how things changed up for Sabine but it was a nice change she liked Kara and she loved the food the soul rider made. Spanish did end up being a bit hard so Sabine gave up on learning through books and videos and went straight to the source . The gf 🥶❤️ Sabine told Kara that she wanted to learn Spanish without giving her reason for it and Kara didn’t question it she just helped Sabine.❤️ Kara helped her learn and now Sabine knows a little Spanish and she’s still working on it. Kara still doesn’t know why Sabine wanted to learn Spanish because she still hasn’t told her but it doesn’t really matter to her she’s just happy her gf took interest in the language and Kara is having fun talking to Sabine in a mix of Spanish and English and the dark rider’s plan did work talking in Spanish did help ease Kara’s pain of being homesick ❤️🐴.

Had to write a cute little ramble before I write evil!!! 😈😈😈😈😈😈 more dark rider Kara au will be out soon but for now I leave u with this cute little ramble to prepare u for my evils!!! Mwahahahahaha ‼️‼️‼️😈😈😈

[taylortruther]

I’m so confused so I went to the grocery store yesterday with my mom and she picked up what what on the package says ‘ arroz con leche but it’s actually flan?? Like it’s really good so I’m not complaining but I kind of am cause i wasn’t wanting flan, I was wanting Arroz con leche 😂. And we got not one but two and they’re both flan like how is there a packaging mistake two times?? And I checked everywhere on the box but no it’s clearly advertised as arroz con leche lol. And yeah I definitely should’ve looked more closely before buying it but to be fair, my mom just put it in the cart and I mean, I just figured it would be the correct thing 😂

omg now those two things are soooo different. you all should contact the company and tell them! there is probably a mistake in the packaging line. and maybe they'd give you some vouchers or free products!

Mirlo: El Final del Día

Chapter 1: La Ansiedad Adolescente

During Raymundo Juan’s Childhood, he and his brother Pedro snuck into a cave system in a hill. They were told by their parents to never go into this cave system because even though it is close to their home they can not save them if something happens. The cave nearly collapsed due to a storm and they escaped the cave. Their parents were angry, but glad that they were alright. Some years have passed and the boys grew up with Pedro being a scholar and Raymundo becoming a rabbit hunter. 15 year old Raymundo, feeling more of an outcast in his wealthy family left his hometown of Rascafria, Spain to become an explorer. His Father, a honest businessman who owns a circus in Madrid, Spain, supports his son's decision to explore the world and gave him some personal items and money before his trip

A year has passed and Raymundo is living the party scene in Mexico City. a man who gave him a job led him to a supposed party near an ancient Aztec village, to which Raymundo happily went. It was a trap and his boss was a leader of a cannibalistic cult, who attacked all the unsuspecting guests. Raymundo had a piece of his neck bitten off and was being eaten. An Egyptian superhero named Dire Qurmiziun, who is secretly a female scientist called Jacey Brasher, saved him by spraying him with a nanite spray that regrew all his eaten flesh. She attacked some of the cult members with her compressed blaster, but the leader got away. She picked up the now unconscious Raymundo and flew him back to the city. He woke up to Ghaliya, Jacey’s Daughter, taking care of him due to the nanite spray healing his injuries but draining his energy. After a few days, They fell for each other and started dating.

One day while looking on the news, he saw a police interview that involved his parents. His parents were murdered by his brother. Raymundo took the next plane to Spain and began searching for his brother. During his search, he meets a man named Anthelme Hubert, who told him a clue about his brother, begrudgingly he listens to Anthelme. He followed the lead to an abandoned cave where he saw his brother, face down in mysterious liquid. Raymundo runs to him and pulls him out, but falls unconscious when he gets out.

When he woke up, he noticed that his brother’s body was gone. Raymundo, not understanding what is going on, decides he needs to be with his girlfriend now that he has nobody else he considers as family. So he collected his inheritance and left Spain, all the while unaware of his powers.

Chapter 2: Feliz 17 Cumpleaños

It has been a while since his parents died and his powers have yet to kick in. He was adopted by Anthelme, who is helping him look for his brother. He has this gut feeling his brother is not dead and knows one day he will see and fight him. He is nose deep in his phone looking for any news that is odd or possible sightings of his brother.

“Come on, kid!” 

Raymundo looks up and sees Anthelme in the doorway. “You got to get ready for your big day!”

“I’m sorry,” said Raymundo, “I wasn’t paying attention. Just looking for one sign to finally end this mystery.”

Anthelme smiled. “It’s fine. I just don’t want you to miss your life as it passes by.” Raymundo, fully dressed, comes down and starts to see a big birthday party. Everybody was happy to see him and started partying. Anthelme set Raymundo down for some sweets, Leche Frita and Arroz con Leche, and some presents. Raymundo left the party for some air, but the thoughts of his brother brought his mood down.

He wants to focus on the party and the good times, but the threat of his brother and the unknown reasoning of his parents’ murder still rings in his head. He also notes how he feels different, but no matter what, he can not find the cause internally and externally. Lee Morison, a friend of Anthelme, walks up to Raymundo and starts to speak with him.

“How are you, mate?”

“I am good,” said Raymundo. “Just out of it.”

“Yeah. I heard about the search. You do not have to worry about him. He is out there being a criminal on the run and you are here living the good life.”

“I just need to know why. To ask this burning question.”

Lee says, “the question could lead you to an answer, maybe a question worse than you could ever imagine.”

“I am willing to take the risk.”

“I can tell by looking.”

“Everybody says that. I do not know why. Is it the face?”

They began to joke around until something caught Raymundo’s attention. Somebody walked into a party, an Egyptian woman wearing a formal white dress. Lee notices that the woman wants to talk to him.

“Well, let’s talk more later. You got a guest.” said Lee.

The woman revealed herself as Jacey Brasher. She starts to speak about how she is Ghaliya’s Mother and wants to meet him. 

“She wanted to come with me, but she was busy with school.”

“How do I know you are her mother?” Raymundo Questions.

“I got the same last name, eyes, and hair, kid. Nothing to say.” Jacey Jokingly said.

Anthelme beckons Jacey to him to which they said their goodbyes. Jacey went to Anthelme and had a serious conversation. Raymundo noticed and as they snuck away, he followed. Raymundo sees Anthelme hand Jacey a file to which Jacey pulls a picture that shows a symbol for Canes Vindictae. Raymundo remembers something about the Canes Vindictae and how they are led by a man named Noche Silenciosa who supposedly has powers and that they are known for their kidnapping. Never considering that they could be a clue to his brother.

He stalked a known base of the Canes Vindictae and then he saw movement. He put on a mask and broke into the base thinking it was a good idea.

It was until something went wrong. He saw a random little girl just living there and she screamed. She ran into a room and locked the door in which she sounded an alarm. A bunch of gang members showed up led by a man named Colton Elliot, a high ranked member of Canes Vindictae. He fist fights the guys in the room, who overwhelmed him.

He wakes up in a cell in the Canes Vindictae base. He sees them discussing how they should kill him before he causes them any trouble. Just before they finalize their decision, A Vigilante named Necroclaw breaks in and slashes at a few members with his claws. He looks at Raymundo through his cell door and rips the door off its hinges. Necroclaw scolds him for his reckless actions. He told Raymundo to go tell the police. As Raymundo leaves, He can hear the screams of the gang members that were being killed by Necroclaw.

Raymundo ran to the police station  and submitted a report to the police officers there. Police looked at him and laughed since they were a small town and no international gang would ever set base there. So he went back home and while he was on his way back, he was being stalked. He looks on the roof of a nearby house and sees a glowing pair of eyes. He slowly walked as the eyes followed. When he sped up, the moving eyes sped up. He ran, but was immediately pounced on by this wolf-like being that is hunched over him. It bites into his arm, as he is screaming out in pain, he punches the wolfman away. This surprised him and the wolfman. As he went in for another punch, the wolfman grabbed his arm and picked him up. So Raymundo starts punching the wolfman, which brutally deforms the wolfman’s face. He picked up a nearby brick to hit the wolfman, but got slapped away. As the wolfman began to run, Raymundo grabbed the wolfman’s legs and dragged him closer. He throws the wolf to a nearby wall and starts brutally kicking and punching it until it dies. Necroclaw and Crimson Carapace show up late, which angers Raymundo. Necroclaw and Dire Qurmiziun revealed that they are Anthelme and Jacey.

The next morning, Raymundo wakes up and sees Anthelme standing by his doorway. Raymundo asks why he is in the room to which Anthelme explains that Canes Vindictae are up to something and his brother is not a part of the plan, but is in the group. Raymundo, given the gravity of his choices, decides they need to figure out what the Canes Vindictae are up to. To this Anthelme replies now he needs a suit and a name.

Chapter 3: La Máscara

Raymundo Juan, Now the hero Mirlo, is trying to figure out his next move. He is researching  reports about Canis Vindictae and is shocked to see no mentions of supernatural phenomena in the reports. There is a knock on his door and he opens it to see his girlfriend Ghaliya. She flew from Mexico to see him. She invited him to a tour date around the city, but he insisted that he could not. She gave him a poultry look until he agreed to go. He dressed in a blazer, button up shirt, and slacks, while she dressed in thigh high boots, jeans, and a t-shirt.

“Hey baby,” she said as she walked closer to him as they walked around. She questioned why he never returned to Mexico and what he was doing in the room. He told her about what happened up until the mysterious liquid. He told her that he can not tell her about what he was doing because it was very personal. She somehow understood despite not knowing the superhero stuff that her mother and him were doing. He looks hurt for not being able to tell her the whole truth to which she replied “What’s wrong?”

“I can not say for sure,” replied Raymundo. As they walk everytime he looks into a reflective surface, he sees the Mirlo mask that he got. Suddenly a man and woman stopped them. They attacked them and Raymundo and Ghaliya defended themselves and ran away.

“Why did they just attack us?” exclaimed Ghaliya.

“I can take a guess, but I do not want to take it there!” replied Raymundo.

Ghaliya noticed the look in Raymundo’s eyes. They looked different from usual, more serious than ever possible. “I guess this is the part where I stop asking questions,” she says. He looks at her with an agreed face.

The two ran to an abandoned building and hid separately. Lee Morrison is sitting slightly out of sight of everything with a beer in his hand. He is watching and waiting for something. The attackers entered in search of them.

“I do not understand what is happening,” whispered Ghaliya. “I need to find Raymundo.”

Raymundo opened a door to his Mirlo suit. “Supongo que Lee descubrió los escondites.” Ghaliya walked up to Raymundo as Mirlo and she was shocked to see him.

“Who are you?” she asked. He did not reply so that she does not get anymore involved. Mirlo yelled out to the hidden Lee. Lee makes an obvious sign that he left.

“What was that?”

“A family friend,” said Mirlo. 

“I need your help to find my boyfriend who is also hidden in this building!” she exclaims.

“He is fine,” said Mirlo. “I am sure he will be fine where he is, but you need to go hide too.” Before she could go hide, the attackers, now in their werewolf form, showed up and rushed him.

She watched as Mirlo fought the wolves. He punched one of the wolves so hard it sent the wolf into a wall. The other wolf bit into his neck seemingly killing him, but Mirlo grabbed a knife and stabbed it in the stomach. The wolf let go and ran away. The wolf that was sent flying was the female of the attackers. He grabbed her and threw her into a room . He locked the room so that she would not escape.

“Can you finally tell me who you are?” asked Ghaliya.

“Ok, but promise me you will not freak out.” replied Mirlo.

He removes his mask and explains the story so far. This includes how he got powers and trained under Necroclaw. this did not include her mother’s superhero status. He admits how he felt guilt for lying to her for one bit to which she replied that it was ok. He hears banging on the door and looks at it.

“You may want to leave because I am going to squeeze her for information and I do not want you to see me like that." Raymundo said with a mask in hand.” I understand.” Ghaliya said as she left.

Chapter 4: El Ayuntamiento

Raymundo Juan, as Mirlo, has been chasing leads in Madrid for many days. He has been trying to find more leads. He knows that they are still in Spain, but he can not find or communicate with the Canis Vindictae. Necroclaw shows up in front of him and gives him a name and a photo of a man who he can charm his way for information. He made his way around the city until he saw the man on a bench in the park. He took off his costume in the restroom and approached the man. He made quick friends with this man, whose name is Nikos, and enjoyed a conversation with him. Suddenly, a woman with metallic claws attacks them. Raymundo did his best to defend Nikos from the woman, using a random stick like a bat. She slashed open Nikos’s stomach and left. With his dying words, Nikos says “Raymundo, the gang is heading to a new base, I do not know where but I know when.” he died in Raymundo’s arms. Raymundo felt the assassin was looking through him as he was fighting.

The day after, Raymundo met with Ghaliya who surprised him. She told him about a bunch of armored trucks heading out of the city. Raymundo realized it was the Canis Vindictae and it is an official lead. He broke into the old base and found an old parchment in the back of a desk drawer, which belonged to Colton.  The parchment talked about a hidden base in Greece and how they are shipping some mystical artifact to it.

Chapter 5: La Trampa

Mirlo snuck into the hidden base to put an end to Colton’s plan.

Colton is surprised by Mirlo’s appearance, but he figures that he might have found some clues to where he is. He knew eventually they would fight someday, but that day is now. Colton, with a flick of his wrist, summoned an army of flaming skeletons armed with flaming weapons. “Get him!” Colton says. As the skeleton charges at him.

Mirlo fights the skeleton with his fist. As they fight, Colton says “I am sure you have noticed that we do not have extra time so antio sas.”

Mirlo is not in the mood for banter as he grabs his daggers to dispatch the remaining enemies. Mirlo notices Colton is gone. As Mirlo closes in on Colton, Mirlo says “it is over Colton. Your plan is failing and I will get the information and the artifact from you.” In a split second, Mirlo feels a burning sensation. He realized he was being set on fire to the point where he was dead before he could earn more.

Colton exits the base and takes a helicopter to the temple of Apollo with the artifact which looks like to be the Loot of Apollo.  He contacts somebody and tells them that Mirlo is dead and the contacted man asked if he was sure. Mirlo wakes up with most of his costume burned outside of most of his mask, his hood, and utility belt. Knowing he needs to find Colton again, he puts on some clothes with his remaining costume and leaves the base.

Chapter 6: Vivo

As Raymundo makes his way to the temple, he starts to imagine what if he never left his family for a life of adventure. His parents would still be alive and his brother would be around and potentially what he is currently. What if he never became Mirlo. He would be depressed about the unsolved murder of his parents and the unsolved disappearance of his brother. What if he had gotten over his parents death, he would have not been on his journey of being a superhero.

Raymundo sees some flaming skeletons on the steps of the Temple. Mirlo starts fighting them with his bounded fist. Within a few minutes,  Dire Qurmiziun and Necroclaw joined the fight with Dire blasting enemies away with energy blasts and Necroclaw hacking enemies with his claws. Necroclaw tells Mirlo to keep going while they hold off the army. So Mirlo runs to the top.

Chapter 7: Mi Mundo

Mirlo shows up behind Colton on the temple for the final battle. Colton mentions that MIrlo’s brother said he is just as great as him. This stunned Mirlo for a second before he  moved on to fighting. Colton coats his fist with fire and they start fighting with both parties throwing effective punches. Colton thinks he has the advantage because Colton has years of experience, but he is overtaken by Mirlo’s fierce attacks and brutal methods. Mirlo nearly kills him.

As Necroclaw and Dire Qurmiziun shows up, Mirlo starts questioning Colton about his brother.

Mirlo asks, “What do you know about my brother!”

Colton says, “ he is looking forward to meeting again, but in his new form as Caballero de la sombra.”

Mirlo knocks Colton out. Finally having a clue, he feels a little lighter than before, but knows a war about to come. Raymundo went home to his surprise Ghaliya waiting for him there.

The next morning, he wakes up with Ghaliya still in his bed. He walks out the room to a happy morning and breakfast. He gets the mail and sees a note saying “see you soon! "In a dark room, a man in the shadows is monologuing to his gang about their future plans. In his speech, he also remembered the good times with his family and how his brother was the golden child while he was the coward. When he ends the monologue with the declaration of his change, he steps out of the shadows to reveal himself as an older Pedro and he walks to his own suit saying “I am coming  brother for the Gran Final!”

the charger for my laptop has passed on. it passed away on Sunday, and i started to frick freak out [in a way, this is embarrassing since i'm dependent on the online web *winces*]. now i'm sleeping through the night + during the day because I hate myself and I can't distract myself from the dark tunnel of self-loathing thoughts [ah, old reliable; atleast i'll always have my thoughts with me and maybe arroz con leche; hugsies].

i'm writing this on my mobile device, but i dislike using it for the internet. the act of using the internet on my phone feels as if it's stealing something out of me, like my half my brain kinda. i told myself and my family that after my cell phone dies para siempre, I don't want another móvil and i remind them to stop pressuring me to get a new one. i would like a landline for phone calls i must make :'x

i think my mom is pretty glad i seem more present in our conversations. i'm going to try to log off of Tumblr for a while until i can get access to a computer [library babey! *winces at thought of public outings*] because using Tumblr is more fun on the computer [html babey!] and i like sending askies to other blogs on the computer.

[rice-pudding-slaps]

How did it take me so long to figure out that "Rice pudding" is not some kind of flan made with rice flour or smtn but ARROZ CON LECHE. AND THAT'S WHY MISTO LIKES IT SO MUCH. OF COURSE HE WOULD LIKE ARROZ CON LECHE

#cats the musical #Cats 1998 #bustopher jones #mr mistoffelees #mistofelees #Arroz con leche is so good tho #But it has to be done right #Wasn't there a headcanon that Tugger cooked? #And that he reeeeally tried to make rice pudding? #That was cute #The thing is it takes like 4 hours to cook one batch #Now I want arroz con leche #My cat loved arroz con leche

[ballisterboldheart]

modern au harrai + cooking because i made some very sexy red rice today

we already established that harrow has a Kiss the Cook apron and sarai works very hard to distract him but it’s also worth mentioning that she. is a notorious food thief. she always takes something when harrow isn’t looking and also when he is. she looks him straight in the eye and steals his half cooked food. he’s banned her from the kitchen about three times now but She Cannot Be Stopped.

callum wanted to learn how to cook, a little, and he wasn’t. bad at it. but it’s clear he got his mom’s disaster gene. however, harrow always lets him frost the cookies and cakes he sometimes makes. ezran “helps” too, but that involves making a small mountain of frosting and then. eating it when he thinks his dad isn’t looking. 

harrow sometimes puts music on while he works and he sings along and he sometimes also starts dancing with sarai while they’re both waiting for something to be done. callum once walked in on them doing a very messy waltz and giggling. the food on the stove was burning. they ordered pizza instead.

whenever viren is over at their place to "do some work” (and claudia and soren are playin video games with the boys and waiting for dinner to be ready) and harrow is cooking he just. pours himself a nice glass of wine and offers suggestions while harrow works although Viren Does Not Know How To Cook. sarai makes him wash the dishes. 

harrow always likes it when amaya comes over because she’s in love with his cooking. there are never any leftovers. and she WAITS til the food is all nice and ready unlike SOME PEOPLE. once sarai was like “amaya’s bringing dinner” and amaya. came to their home with a live chicken. harrow was like nOO. (turns out the chicken was for Something Else they just wanted to mess with him. harrow was grumpy for the rest of the day. amaya brought take out from the place harrow really likes to make up for it.)

whenever it’s Late and someone can’t sleep harrow makes arroz con leche like his mother used to and. it’s delicious. he’ll also make some hot chocolate for the boys during winter.

#s.txt #the dragon prince #lksdjflkd anyways! here's this. #let it be known that i. can cook. sometimes. #also afromexican harrow is canon king. #fuck now i really want arroz con leche why is god so CRUEL #otp: dreaming of you

[simmancy]

Arroz con Leche for @stoneybalonie

Arroz kind of has a reputation as a playboy, but it’s just that he loves love. If only he put as much effort into his career as a chef into finding the Right One... Then perhaps his Abuela would finally be able to stop lecturing him.

30 Days of Picard Postivity

With just over 30 days to go, the premiere of Star Trek: Picard season 2 (3rd March in the US, 4th March internationally) is fast approaching, and I for one cannot wait to get back into the world I fell in love with two years ago. Thirty days is quite some time, however, and even though new trailers and promo pics seem to be dropping daily, I felt like we could use something to tide us over until March.

After the long hiatus, I think this is the perfect time to revisit all the things we enjoyed about season 1. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has forgotten a lot of the details of those episodes, and who would love to see some of the wonderful characters, locations, and stories back on my dash. So, without further ado:

ProcrastinatorProject Proudly Presents:

30 Days of Picard Positivity

(Transcribed prompt list with explanations below the cut.)

As you can see, this calendar has two prompts for (almost) every day between now and the premiere of season 2. Each day will have one character prompt and one other prompt (Places, Groups, Technology, Production aspects, etc.). Pick one or both, and gush about them to your heart’s content.

Now, I know that we are all incredibly busy - this isn’t Early Pandemic Times after all - so I don’t intend this to be a call to Create All Of The Things. If a prompt inspires you, you could, for example, simply post a short quote or a screenshot that fits the theme. Maybe you have a gif lying around somewhere, or you remember this fanfic you read (or wrote) way back in the day and want to share a link. Perhaps there's some fitting art or meta you posted in the last two years that you think deserves a reblog.

The idea is to engage with this list in any way that gives you joy, however small or elaborate it may be.

And if you are a day (or a week) late or early with your posts, I don’t think anyone will mind. Between time-zone weirdness and tumblr shenanigans, things will get a little jumbled anyway. In the end, we will all have a little more Star Trek: Picard on our dashes, and that‘s what counts ;)

The official tag is #PicardPositivity (one word). I know two words would be more intuitive, but I’m putting this on twitter as well and the little blue bird doesn’t know how to deal with tags that aren’t a single word 😋

There’s no official account for this project, but I will pin this post on my blog for reference (and will probably link and reblog it periodically).

Caveat: Of course, there are always valid criticisms to be made of any piece of media, and there are many places all around the web where you can find fascinating discussions of all of these with regards to ST: PIC. However, here and now I simply want to celebrate this show, the rich world it created, and the caring, creative, incredible community it has given me, and without whom I wouldn’t have made it through the last two years.

Let us all have some fun together and enjoy 30 Days of Star Trek: Picard Positivity!
