Fun things to throw into your writing to make character dynamics more interesting: Give them wildly different ideas of what is and is not common knowledge.
Like one of them casually mentions an extremely obscure and nuanced detail about the cultural customs of a small minority people living on a completely different continent, that none of the other ones have even heard of, or 2/3 of the party argue that obviously an average adult should have at least some basic level of skill in electrical installation.
Have the whole party go "yeah yeah, the time knife, we've all seen it" about something that all of them consider an obvious thing that everyone knows, except for two characters who otherwise have nothing in common, who are the only ones who have never heard of that and have no idea where they were supposed to learn it.
One of them accidentally microwaves a spoon and pops in like "hey did you know that putting metal in a microwave doesn't always make it explode and kill everyone?" And some other character looks at them in utter baffled confusion and asks
"What the fuck is a microwave?"

Hiiii! How are you hanging?
Warning: periods? Not sure if it’s a warning. If it is or it makes you uncomfortable I am so so sorry it was not my intention
Could you write for Leo Valdez being his s/o’s biggest simp and like acting as heater and heating pad especially when she’s on her period and building her lots of gadgets for basically anything he thinks she may need?
Feel free to skip this obviously!
Sorry again and have a lovely day!
Bye! (Ps I have reade your Nike one for about 20 times now and it still is so fun and amazing! ‘Cant wait for the Hypnos one!)
I'm working on so much rn so this is just a short head canon list that sort of derailed but it was so cute to write. I'm glad you liked the Nike one, and the Hypnos fic was just posted I hope you find it <3
And period talk doesn't make me uncomfortable don't worry I'm fine with writing lots of that kind of stuff I just have like, limits with smut and age gap kind of stuff [I'm also a minor]
This header just gave me like, hot water bottle cover vibes and matched the rest of it too, hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
Hotboy/Hotpack---Leo V x gn reader on their period
»»————- ★ ————-««
-No but like he’s literally perfect for the job
-Who else is better at laying down as a weighted blanket and heating himself up to perfect temperature and then just literally fiddling with rubix cubes while you use him as a hot water bottle
-He’d be so happy to as well, like it was the best job in the world [which it is to him, he gets cuddles as well as being a good boyfriend. It’s a win win]. Even if you didn’t ask, he’d catch you microwaving a wheat pack while you take painkillers in the camp kitchen and sneak up behind you and hug you. Or maybe he’d lay across the counter dramatically, 
-‘mi amor are you replacing me? Why would you do this? I love you, and now there's other guys in your life!’
-‘it’s literally a hot water bottle’
-‘No! I must win you back!...Come on let’s go make out-’ 
-Then he’d take the hot water bottle away and smother you in kisses [if you felt like it] and drag you back to your cabin. He’d bring your favorite snacks and steal Pipers Ipad, the one with the hello kitty stickers, and you’d watch movies to pass the time. 
-He’s the type to try those different rubbing points on your stomach to help with cramps [gods his hands are so fine, but that’s besides the point] and even if they didn’t work you’d get a massage out of it <3
-So we’ve all agreed Leo is the little spoon, right? 
-He’d act so tough and macho, spooning you to heat up his hands on your stomach but then you rolled over in your sleep once and woke up to him grinning his head off while you hugged him
-Of course you figured it out and now you’re the big spoon because he’s just so small and cuddly, like a teddy bear [even if he’s a bit boney] and when you get cramps it works even better. He’s like a life sized heat pack pressed against you, and he always holds you hands as well because he’s just like that :D
-He has the softest curly hair when it isn’t covered in sawdust and grease, and when he lays his head on your chest or that little spot between your neck and your shoulder you could just run your hands through it. Or maybe put little plaits in it. He’d love that. Touch is definitely his love language, once he realizes he does deserve it, as well as gifts and acts of service.
-Gifts and acts of service is a subconscious thing for him that he doesn’t even realize he does and likes until he spots the shelf next to your bed filled with all the little things he’s made. Gold or silver jewelry [he quickly figured out which one was favorite through trial and error you didn’t even notice], little metal flowers he’d welded with his fingers, which were literally made with love. There’d be things like lollies and packets of gum he’d realized you liked and promptly bought when he went out, fairy lights he’d made in the shape of hearts, candles with your favorite scents he’d made from when Hazel had a wax-y crafts phase, and more. 
-If you ever gave him something in return, he’d probably cry
-But he knows you love him and he definitely knows he loves you [as well as the rest of CHB lol]

Previous Chapter Next chapter
Tumblr media
The first day in the Tower was rough for Loki. The whiplash from the sweet conversation with you, to being mercilessly pinned down by several shield agents. On any other day, Loki would be able to dominate the situation and take on all these agents without breaking a sweat, but with these bangles? The god found himself grunting into the plush carpet that scraped his cheek and struggling under their weight. But the burning? The burning was the worst.
            The consequences that Tony mentioned when placing the magic dampeners quickly became apparent. As soon as the spoon that spun in the microwave started to spark, and eventually caused a fire in the appliance, the dampeners took on a life of their own. Electric currents coursed through the bangles and right into his wrists, shocking his skin and instantly making it burn. The pain was instantaneous, making him crumple to the ground and writhe in agony. Loki tried to break the bangles in a panicked attempt to stop the onslaught of pain, but it only made the shocks stronger.
            Then, to make matters worse, Shield Agents were barging in his door within minutes of the ‘microwave incident’. They were shouting and making accusations that he was trying to burn the building down. And to add insult to injury, Tony and Thor followed shortly after the agents, suddenly making the tiny apartment overcrowded. Loki later discovered that the bangles notify both of them if there are any attempts to cause havoc or escape the building. Them being there, THAT was the worst part, Loki decided.
            “Brother, didn’t Lady Y/N teach you not to put metal in the tiny oven?” Thor stood in front of the blackened appliance; his head tilted to the side in confusion. Of course, you had helped Thor too, Loki thought, the oaf.
            “How do we know that he wasn’t trying to burn the place down?” Tony questioned. As soon as he walked in, he automatically assumed Loki was up to no good. Thor, on the other hand, was trying to convey that it was an honest mistake.
            “You’re telling me that this man, this god, who tried to take over our planet, couldn’t work a microwave to the point where it exploded?” Tony looked over to Loki who now sat on the carpet, rubbing his wrists that were raw, red, and burning.
Peeking over his blue tinted glasses, Tony continued his taunt, “How did you almost beat us, like really?”
            Loki groaned, yet thankful that Thor’s vouching for him in the vast differences between Midgardian and Asgardian technology was enough to convince the billionaire. Is it possible for a god to die from embarrassment? The two avengers offered to take him to the Med Bay to treat the wounds on his wrist, but Loki was adamant about not going. He will heal, slower now due to the dampeners, but he will heal, and he didn’t want anyone else to see his pain. This event was shameful enough as it is.
            After Tony left, the god of thunder lingered to try and soothe his brother. Thor gave his younger brother a sympathetic pat in his shoulder, “You must be more careful, brother. You can’t do anything that would make them think you are up to mischief, or you will end up back in Asgardian prison.”
            “Good!” Loki bellowed, throwing his hands up in the air, “Send me back! That cell is better than being here, treated like a peasant, treated like an ANIMAL!” The last few words filled with so much venom, it made Thor flinch.
            “If things continue like this, I can have a discussion with father about your return to Asgard.” Loki expression conveyed pure distain at the mention of his ‘father’ but was placated at the mention of going home. Maybe if he did cause enough havoc, he could go home, “but I want you to try, brother. I really think you could make a home here and be happy.”
            Loki only hummed in response before Thor left him alone yet again in the apartment. Time dragged on as it always did when one only had their mind to keep them occupied. His wrists burned and he thought about taking a cold shower to help with the pain. He went into the bathroom and turned on the shower and it immediately sputtered, spraying all over the place and wetting the prince who stood just outside of the shower. No matter which way he turned the handles, the water was scalding hot. Loki growled, convinced this was definitely done on purpose.
            A knock on the door took Loki away from the shower, quickly turning it off. A part of him hoped it was you, and when he opened the door and saw a delivery man he frowned. The delivery boy had a bunch of bags on his arms and around his feet. Loki quirked an eyebrow at the boy who was shaking like a leaf in front of the towering god.
            “Her-here is your de-delivery Mister-Mister Laufeyson.” The boy then abruptly dropped the rest of the bags on the floor and took off down the hallway, anything to escape the intense stare of the god of mischief. Loki sighed, and brought all the bags in, wincing as the weight of the bags made his burnt wrists bump against the bangles. This was new. The feeling of weakness from carrying simple bags. His frown deepened.
            The prince went through his very first batch of groceries and inspected each item. It was an array of canned foods and frozen foods, as you had said, along with various toiletry items. Loki was quick to learn from his mistakes and read the back of each of the items. His dark brows were furrowed in concentration, as if this frozen meal was an ancient Asgardian text.
            “Hungry Man….satisfy your cravings,” He scoffed, flipping the box over and looking at the image of questionable meatloaf, “Hardly.”
Still, he read the instructions on the back, “Peel the film off…place in microwave…” Loki’s eyes shot up to the charred appliance that served as an embarrassing reminder of his folly,“Oh. Well, that won’t work.” He continued reading and saw instructions for the ‘conventional oven’. There was a little picture of an oven next to it, and his eyes bounced back to the oven that still, somehow, remained unburnt from the microwave explosion.
For a while, his eyes flitted between the two appliances, debating if he should give it a go. Burnt microwave. Unmarked oven. Burnt microwave. Unmarked oven.
With a sigh, he put the frozen box down on the counter, “Y/N will teach me anyways.” He found himself smiling at thoughts of you. You were the one good thing about this dreadful planet and soon he was daydreaming about your planned shopping trip tomorrow. Would your soft hands caress his arms as he adorns himself in your Midgardian fabrics? He remembered your brief look at his legs, and surely, he would do a little twirl for you in some tight, Midgardian pants, to give you a generous look at his thighs. Loki bit his lip at the thought of you lewdly staring at him.
“Of course, she would,” he smirked to himself. As he was putting away the rest of the groceries, he mocked his bored mind. It kept on picturing you there with him, living this domestic life. He imagined you putting away the groceries with him and smiling at the thought of helping you with the higher cupboards that would be out of your reach.
Taking a can of sliced carrots, he pulled the tab and sat down with it on his beige chair. His gaze automatically went to the empty seat across from him, the one that you had sat in during your meeting. It was easy to picture you there. An illusion would be better, he thought, deflating a bit at the unintentional reminder of his loss of magic. He easily dug into the cold carrots, grimacing at the outrageous amount of sodium that laced the orange vegetable. As he ate, he flipped through the furniture catalog you gave him.
“What do you think of this seating, Darling? It’s quite charming for being Midgardian, don’t you think?” He said to your empty chair, his sweet smile he would flash you faltering.
“Midgard has driven me to madness,” Loki cursed under his breath, but he still dog eared the page after realizing he didn’t have anything to write with. Making his way through the catalog, he eventually landed on the beds. Without hesitation he bent the corner of the page of king size beds.
A devilish grin spread on his face, “Would you call me your king, Darling?” Images started to flood his mind. You, spread on his bed, just covered in a sheet in a tangle of limbs as you cuddled with him.
“I don’t cuddle!” Loki tossed the book back on his tiny coffee table in frustration at himself, but the thoughts kept coming and he easily relented to the sweet daydreams. Surely you would be warm, a comforting embrace against his normally cold skin. He recalled you smelling good when his nose brushed against your hair. It was a sweet smell, a floral aroma he couldn’t quite place. Likely a Midgardian flower, he decided. The tip of his finger brushed against his lower lip absentmindedly, imagining the soft caress of your lips against his. Kisses would travel down from your lips to your jawline to your collar bone, and down the valley of your breasts. You would arch into his mouth and tangle your fingers in his hair. Would you pull it? He hoped you would. He adjusted himself in his leathers, the fabric suddenly becoming tight.
Loki’s mind is no stranger to fantasy. Erotic thoughts were a constant staple, and it was no surprise that he was thinking of you in this way. Even though you were a mortal, you were undeniably gorgeous. The curves of your body were delicious and practically begging for his tongue to caress them. But what did surprise him is when his lusty thoughts turned…romantic.
            You would also caress him. Those petite fingers of yours would card themselves through his black tresses, making him purr and melt. Featherlight kisses would brush against his forehead, and he would hear your sweet voice, humming a soothing lullaby.
            The nightmares would be gone.
            Your arms would have healing powers. Nightmares have plagued Loki for years, ever since his fall from the Bifrost and even more so since his time with Thanos. His brother and the Avenger’s knew of the mind control he was under during the Battle of New York. It was the only reason why they even entertained the thought of him being within the tower. But they did not know the level of torture he endured. No, that fact Loki kept close to his heart.
            Would he tell you about it?
            Somehow while lost in his reverie, he made it to his bed. He grimaced as he crawled into the bed that laid on the floor, the greasy blanket feeling disgusting against his royal skin. Loki continued to look at the catalog while in bed since it was the only reading material he had. He flipped through the pages again until he reached the blankets and comforters, marking the page with the most expensive fabrics and highest thread counts.
            You deserve the best, he mused. Someone who cares for others so deeply, so selflessly deserves the highest regard and the utmost care. If he was in Asgard, you would want for nothing. The finest fashions would adorn your skin, all in his colors, of course. He would take you to one of their celebrations – feasts filled with food, drink, and dancing. Loki had no doubt that others would try to win your attention, the pretty thing you are, but no, you would only have eyes for him. A soft smile graced the prince’s lips at the thought.
            He would lead to the center of the room, and he would insist on teaching you a formal Asgardian dance.
            “No, no, I don’t know the steps.” He whispered to himself, his normally deep voice slightly higher and impersonating you. But he would drag you onto the dancefloor with a wide grin, and your smile would be just as big as you lost yourselves in each other. Your body would be pressed to his and your warm breath would fan his ear with sweet nothings.
            ‘I love you, Loki….’
            Loki shot up in his bed. His large hands swiped his face like he could rid himself of those thoughts.
            “Too far.”
            Loki laid back down and closed his eyes, the catalog lying next to him and forgotten. For once, sleep did come easy to him, and the nightmares did not come either. Instead, he dreamt of you. A domestic life with you filled with ease, laughter, and love. In his sleep, he smiled and allowed himself to dream, to hope.
            Knocking woke him up from his deep slumber. He sat up, yawned, and stretched, not remembering when he slept so long and so well last. For a second, he considered the bed being the reason why he woke up so well rested, but then he felt the gritty comforter brush against his arm. Loki practically threw the greasy comforter off his body and stood up from the bed. Norns, no!
            The knocking continued and he adjusted his leathers that shifted slightly in his sleep as he walked to his front door. Being forced to sleep in that atrocious bed was enough. There was no way he would adorn himself in a sweat suit. That’s taking things too far. Way too far.
            He opened the door, and his eyes went wide at the sight of you. Loki’s hands flew to his hair to smooth it down to something that would be somewhat presentable. The curls on his head always became especially wild at night and even more so since he has been denied his silk sheets. Sheepishness flushed his pale, sleepy face in light pink hues. So, the desire to be liked by you hasn’t faded after all.
            “Good morning, Loki!” You chirped, your sweet voice caressing his ears much like his day dream, “Are you ready to go shopping?”
            In that very moment, one fact became undeniable to Loki. A fact that, surprisingly, did not horrify him, but instead brought on a new and welcoming warmth in his chest
            Loki had fallen for you, and he had fallen hard.

Anything for you, Sweetheart
Rockstar!Eddie Munson x Female!Reader
Fluff
Tumblr media
Curled up in Eddie's bunk on the tour bus, Y/N tried to get some rest. There was a thin layer of sweat on her skin even as she shivered under the blanket that she had pulled up to her nose.
It was Corroded Coffin's first big tour and Eddie was excited to share this experience with his Significant Other. Those plans were put on hold as she fought off a nasty cold.
The door to the tour bus opened and her husband's band entered with joyous voices, pumped up on the adrenaline of a sold out show. The 3rd one she missed since she got sick.
From the bunk she could hear her husband shush them before the sound of boots thumping on the floor approached. The curtain that surrounded her to give them privacy opened and Eddie kneeled next to her with a sympathetic smile.
Y/N stared at him with eyes that resembled a kicked puppy, peaking out from under their blanket.
"Hey Sweetheart," he greeted, softly. "How're you feeling?"
"The same," she replied, her voice raspy from coughing. "How was the show?"
He reached out and ran his fingers through her hair. "It was metal. We blew them away. I wish that you were there to see it."
"Me too."
"I miss having my girl out there rocking out with me."
She sluggishly blinked at him and moved to tuck the blankets under her chin to give him a small smile. "I miss that too."
"Well, I do have some good news for you, Sweetheart," he stated.
"What is it?"
"For the next three nights, we'll be staying in a hotel. Starting tomorrow."
She perked up. "Really?"
Eddie nodded.
"Thank God. I miss an actual bed."
"I know. I got us the best room. The perfect place to care for my girl and nurse her back to health. Speaking of which, did you eat?"
She shook her head. "Too tired to get up and make something."
He gave her a pointed look. "Y/N Munson, you need to eat. You're not going to get better if you don't. I'm going to get you some soup and some water, okay?"
"Okay. F/S?"
"You got it!"
With a gently pat on her head, he stood up and walked to the small kitchenette.
Eddie cracked open a can of his wife's favorite soup and dumped it into a microwave safe bowl to heat up.
"Hey Man," Jeff said from where he sat on the couch. "How's Y/N/N?"
"Still feverish," he answered.
"That sucks," Gareth said. "Hopefully she feels better for the second leg of the tour."
"Yeah. Then you can annoy us all with your obnoxious PDA."
Eddie released a deep breath as he rolled his eyes. "Hopefully and you guys are just jealous I have a smoking hot wife." He pointed a ring finger at his bandmates.
He grabbed the bowl when the microwave beeped, along with a spoon and a bottle of water before he returned to his wife.
"Dinner is served, Sweetheart."
He placed the stuff on the ground so that he could help her sit up when he saw her struggle to do so.
"Thanks Ed," she said once he handed her the bowl and spoon. He placed the bottle next to her covered lap.
He gave her a small smile and leaned in to kiss her forehead, ignoring the sweat on her skin.
"Anything for you, Sweetheart."

A $100ish 30-Day Box
When I think about the word prepper, I tend to think about individuals who store guns, ammo, and freeze-dried food for a singular Event(TM) that they will have to survive, probably involving roving bands of marauders coming for their wives and guns.
I personally think the risk of this exact type of scenario is low. But given recent events (It's 2022 and I don't think we're ever seeing 2019 again, etc...), I do think a stepwise semi-collapse- one that could most heavily impact low wage workers and minorities- is currently happening and will continue over the course of our lives.
And if you feel you may be vulnerable to some of these steps (another pandemic, say, or unchecked inflation, or a housing crisis, or a series of major natural disasters, or a period of civil unrest in your area, or a combination that adds up to you living in a van with no usable monetary resources), you may want to consider having a box with everything you need to live for 30 days in a bad situation.
This is not a bug-out bag. It will have 30 days worth of food and supplies in it. You are not going to be able to carry it. This is the bargain version where you will need to either shelter in place (like non-essential workers in 2020) or leave in a vehicle (say you get evicted suddenly, or need to evacuate because of a disaster).
And listen, you can get some of these things used or at salvage if that is an option near you. Sometimes that will be cheaper, sometimes not. Use your best judgement. I recommend a mix of new, used, and salvage based on your needs and access.
Containers:
18-gal tote ($8-10 new, you'll need one for every 2 people, but easy to find used or you may already have some)
Gallon freezer bags or other smaller containers ($3-5 depending on number) these are to help organize the rest of the stuff
Supplies: Note that most of these are the cheapest of the cheap- you're looking for things you'll be fine with putting in a box and forgetting about and not actually wanting to take out and use unless you have to. Don't put cool stuff in here.
Metal mug or other food-safe container (pick one you already have)
Microwave-safe mug or other food-safe container (pick one you already have)
Cutlery (recommend fork and spoon, assuming you can pick some you already have)
Pocket knife or multitool (you can get weird keychain versions for like $3, but if you already have one or want to invest in something slightly better this is a good place to do so, but again, nothing cool)
Matches ($1)
A flashlight and batteries or rechargeable with charger ($5 online or at a grocery store checkout line. does not have to be fancy)
Phone charger cord and block ($2-5)
A large tin/aluminum can (to make a crappy lil rocket stove with if you need to- here's a slightly more elegant 3-can version). If you're smart put one in that still has something tasty in it.
Car cigarette lighter USB charger if your car has a cigarette lighter (these used to be given away with brand names on them so they're surprisingly not hard to find used for less than a$1, but if you can't find one used you'll spend about $5)
Fuel- put some wax in the box (maybe like a big-ish old candle you got as a gift but don't really like). If you can melt it over some tightly packed cardboard and put it under a 30oz can with some holes punched in it, bam you have a stove. When you run out of that cut a bigger hole in the base of the can and build a lil fire under it. Free rocket stove baby.
Permanent marker (assuming you have one of these)
Pencil and paper (assuming you have some of these)
Food: This will be about $50 more per additional person, maybe less for young children.
20lb/person White Rice- this is a cheap filler that takes up relatively little space. (about $10/person)
10lb/person Brown Rice- this is a slightly less cheap filler that takes up little space but has fiber and other nutrients please don't skimp on this (about $8/person)
10lb/person Dry beans- get a variety here. Protein and fiber. You can eat these or sprout these for variety and more nutrition in very little time (About $10/per person if mostly pintos)
1 gal/person Vegetable Oil- this is your fat. You need fat. Get something you're not allergic to and if you can splurge this is where to do it- get something like olive, coconut, grapeseed, or canola ($8 for canola, the cheapest I could find this in pure olive was about $21)
NOTE: You may have done the math and thought (Gee, that's like twice the number of calories I need in a month! Yeah, but now you're cold and scared and eating your feelings. You'll want plenty of something, and it might as well be beans).
Multivitamin- get enough for everyone to have one every other day or so, since you're living on rice and beans. Does not have to be a good one. Whatever the cheapest one they have at whatever pharmacy or supermarket you're in is, even if it's for kids or whatever. You're not going to get serious deficiencies without it over the course of 30 days, but it may help you feel better and dampen food cravings).
Flavor- garlic, chili, and onion flakes, spices, herbs, soup mix packets, dip mix packets, hot sauce, vinegar powder, lime or lemon granules/concentrate, you really want this and it takes up so little space, trust me. (Put in what you've got or this can get pricey ...but it's kind of worth it)
Water:
Get a cheap filter (like a replacement filter that fits on a standard disposable water bottle) for sediment only and boil if unsure of water quality on your stove (see supplies)/in a microwave ($3). You can also just pour through a piece of old tee-shirt and boil.
OR get a nice filter like a sawyer or lifestraw, though these will easily put you over budget ($20)
Medical:
OTC Meds: I recommend acetaminophen, ibuprofen (can be taken with acetaminophen if needed), diphenhydramine, docusate sodium, loperamide, and anything else you use regularly (about $2 each ($10 total) generic)
Prescription Meds: if you take prescription meds, ask your doc for an extra 30-day supply of each for an emergency. You may have to pay out of pocket for this as insurance may not cover it. If you cannot afford that ask for a paper script with a year-long fill window (or however long they can give you for a particular med). Note that this will probably not work for controlled substances like testosterone or narcotics.
First aid supplies like band aids, cortisone cream, petroleum jelly (use instead of neosporin, seriously it works better, has far more uses, and no one is allergic to it), tape, and an ace wrap (spend about $10 total on this).
Caffeine if you consume it or get headaches frequently- tea is usually cheapest and easiest to prepare but instant coffee works here too (100 pack of the cheapest tea bags at aldi is like $2)
Nicotine if you consume it. Get lozenges instead of patches. I don't have a price on this but crises are not historically the most successful time to quit and you're probs going to need to be functional. If you have something to use instead you're less likely to buy crazy expensive cigs. Consider quitting or decreasing use in prep if you can, but, you know, keep these in your kit.
Hygiene:
Bar soap 2-4 bars. Get like two of the cheapest bars possible and one fels naptha. This sounds like a lot but you're probably going to be using it for everything- clothing, body, hands, dishes, etc... ($2-3)
Toothbrush (1 per person) and a full-size tube of toothpaste ($3)
Bug spray (you can get 2oz of 100% DEET for like $3 and mix with a carrier liquid)
Sunscreen ($5, though you can get it cheaper at expiration, it will only last about a year after)
You want me to say toilet paper but I'm not going to. Get a small plastic cup or a squeezy water bottle and boom you have a bidet. Wipe the water off with a wash cloth and hang to dry. Everyone should have their own and wash their hands after with soap.
Throw some masks in here. N95s if you have them but at the very least cloth ones and I know you have some you may not be using right now.
Entertainment:
Put some books or small games or something in here if you have extra space. And learn some games and recipes for the beans.
Put the rice and beans at the bottom. Sort everything and put it in bags, then layer those bags up to the top. Done.
Also, make a list of everything in the box and tape it to the top, possibly sorted by what bag each thing is in, which will help keep it organized. Next to anything with an expiration date, write the expiration date. Check the list yearly 2 months prior to your normal disaster season. That should give you time to update and replace things if needed.
You're also going to want to get some knoweldge- think about what you'll need to know to use this stuff. Do you know how to use a cup of water as a bidet? How to stretch DEET? How to use bar soap to wash dishes? All 4-6 uses for diphenhydramine? How to sprout beans and/or brown rice?

requested here!
tags: fluff, gn reader

a/n: bro i don’t think i’ll ever get over these jake pics they changed my life I NEED SILVER JAKE BACK AGAIN
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- as evvvvverybody knows, jake is the biggest puppy boy
- he’s so adorable i swear to god
- if you do something kinda dumb but funny (like putting metal in the microwave, tripping over air, or asking if the phrase “four score and seven years before” was from the lord of the rings — based off a real interaction i had with someone btw) he’d laugh so hard he couldn’t breathe and make SO much fun of you
- would bring it up a week later just to be a little shit
- “jake did you eat my cookies?? i specifically asked you not to T-T”
- “okay maybe i did, but at least i didn’t almost explode our microwave by putting a spoon in it”
- piggy back rides!
- if he was giving you a piggy back ride and you gave him a lil kiss on the cheek he’d literally halt in his tracks because he’d be so flustered
- has your name on his phone saved as something cute but doesn’t tell you because he’s embarrassed
- if you play with his hair, i think he’d melt
- i feel like he’d be scrolling through tik tok or twitter or something on his secret account and show you edits or something of himself to try and seduce you LMAO
- (it works)
- if you’re taller or shorter than him, he’d either bend down or stand on his tippy toes a bit when you’re talking to him about something so he can look you in the eye
- flirts with engenes during meet and greets and lives and stuff to mess with you
- will hear you talk about something you’re really interested in and then try to get knowledgeable/good at it and fails miserably… it’s funny though LOL
- tickles you EVEN IF YOU’RE NOT TICKLISH
- volunteering at animal shelters dates. i said what i said.
- he’d be so cute omg imagine his big puppy eyes looking at all the dogs
- “Y/NIE LOOK HOW CUTE THIS ONE IS CAN HER TAKE HER HOME!!”
- and he’s all over this giant great dane, petting her like crazy
- jake would prank you lmao (niki’s influence 😔)
- but it’d be in the stupidest ways
- “y/nie i accidentally dropped your toothbrush in the toilet”
- you can’t ever be pissed at him though because he’s too cute </3
- jake = cutest boyfie

Cute fluffy Diluc x gn!reader agere fanfic!
Summary: You and Diluc cuddle up by the fireplace while he feeds you a bottle
Warnings: Daddy/papa used in a sfw context, bottles (If that makes some ppl uncomfy), Reader has a common cold, Idk what elese to put cus this is pure fluff
Petnames used: little one, baby, sweetheart, meine liebe (My love/dear in German), Darling
Wordcount: 417
A/N: Hi every kiddo! took awhile off but nowww Im back! I hope you all had a nice September! had a 0-3 regression age in mind, nothing explicitly stated.
Tumblr media
"Darling, are you cold?" Your boyfriend Diluc asks, smiling, you had just come back from Dragonspine with Albedo to perform some experiments with the traveler. "A-A bit," You say, before sneezing, it had been a while since you last regressed,
and you were beginning to feel especially drained. you begin to walk over towards Diluc.
He took your hand, you were freezing cold and your fingers were a bright red.
"Meine Liebe… are you sure you're just a 'bit' cold?" Diluc asks, kissing your cold fingers. You nod in response.
"I-I'm okay" You sniffle, feeling the weight of the stress crash down on you and you begin crying.
"Sweetheart…" He mumbles, holding out his arms to give you a tight, warm hug, you obviously hug back, wanting some source of comfort.
"Shh, it's okay meine liebe…" Diluc mutters in your ear, "Do you need to go small, baby?" You smile and nod, glad your boyfriend was so caring.
"Okay little one, I'll start the fireplace, okay?" He asks, you nod back, "Do you want your baba baby?" he inquires. "Wes pwease…" You say, nodding.
"Okay baby, go get your baba, it can be whichever one you want- even the one that is hard to clean," Diluc says as you skip away to go and get your bottle, skipping quickly towards the kitchen.
You get a bottle with blue and purple stars on it and quickly pour milk and some sugar in it, swirling it all around with a metal spoon. you swiftly put it into the microwave, and when you try to get it out, Diluc walks in, chuckling softly.
"You're too small to do that by yourself, meine liebe!" He gets the bottle out and picks both you and the bottle up.
He lays you in his lap, smiling before putting the bottle to your lips, tapping it a few times to tell you to open up, you did just that.
"There we go… thereee we go little one," Diluc says as you begin to suck on the bottle's nipple, tasting the sugary-sweetened milk. It was nice and warm, you loved it, and you sucked that bottle down. He giggles softly.
"Would you like to go nini yet, meine liebe?" He asks and you nod rapidly, ready to go to bed.
"Okay baby, wanna sleep with papa?"
"Wes pwease." You say, doing grabby hands to him.
Diluc picks you up and takes you to his bed, you two begin to cuddle until you both fall asleep.

Reasons why batfamily are banned from the kitchen:
Damian: Absolutely lost it and set a cookbook on fire because the measurements said "a pinch of" or "handfull of" an ingredient instead of actual measurements.
Duke: Accidentally burnt something in one of Alfred's good baking dishes, and instead of telling anyone he hid it and didn't bother to soak it.
Steph: got distracted singing and the stove caught on fire while making waffles (that's the excuse but the truth is making 500 waffles in one sitting was just too much and they wanted it to stop)
Tim: caffiene fueled sleep deprived gremlin put a metal spoon in the microwave and blew it up at the same time he was trying to fry an egg for his instant noodles, ended up falling asleep on the floor infront of the stove, turning the egg to black goo. Alfred walked in to find the whole kitchen on fire.
Cass: Kept making absolutely heinous foods because she just kept trying to make things without looking at a recipe book. She's technically banned, but she can't be stopped.
Jason: He stabbed someone for trying to eat the batter while he was cooking. He can still cook, but no one is allowed near the kitchen while it's happening.
Barbara: She encourages peoples (Cass's) food crimes and keeps trying to feed them to unsuspecting people who, for some reason, were told alfred cooked them.
Dick: Tried to do some complicated acrobatics while flipping pancakes and ended up with third degree burns.
Bruce: Weaponised incompetence, can absolutely cook but decided he didn't want anyone to forced him too. He intentionally made a giant fire on the stove so no one would ask him to cook again.
Alfred: Would be banned from cooking waffles if anyone could tell the man what to do, but they can't, so he still makes them.

Hot Chocolate Mug Cake
Hey all, I just made this again tonight and thought that others might enjoy. I found the recipe a while ago on an ancient, now-deleted blog and wanted to make sure it wasn’t forgotten because it is delicious and infinitely customizable! You don’t need any fancy tools or baking expertise, just some simple ingredients and a microwave.
Ingredients:
Packet of hot cocoa mix (I use Swiss Miss Dark Chocolate but whatever floats your boat!)
4 tbsp all purpose flour
4 tsp granulated sugar
4 tbsp milk of choice
1/4 tsp baking soda
All you’ll need to use is a microwave-safe mug (please double check, I accidentally used a mug with metallic paint once! Luckily I caught it before anything caught fire), a spoon, and a microwave!
Directions:
Mix all the ingredients together in the mug. Doesn’t matter what order. Stir them well, you want it to be a smooth consistency without any dry or powdery spots left. It should look something like this when you’re ready.
Tumblr media
Once you’ve got everything mixed well, you’re gonna put the mug in the microwave for about 1 minute and 30 seconds (maybe a touch more or less depending on your wattage, but luckily there’s no raw ingredients in this so it’s okay if it’s a bit underdone. You can always microwave it longer if needed!)
Afterwards it should look something like this!
Tumblr media
It’ll have a thick, cakey texture. You can then top it with whatever you like (marshmallows, ice cream, powdered sugar, etc) or just eat it as-is! I use a spoon and eat it straight out of the mug. Experiment! Enjoy!

For the glflash HC ask, Motonari in the modern day reacting to MC showing him frozen/microwave dinners.
Hi WW! Thanks for the ask...
This... is food?
He... can't even pronounce the ingredients.
Or... identify them.
What are those bits of green and yellow?
Vegetables? Vegetables are not square.
Although... food cleanly sealed up not only in a box, but then in its own cooking tray, underneath tight transparent bendy glass.... that is a concept he can get behind.
Or could if that was actually food under there.
Do you just stick the tray on top of the open fl--
FIRE!
He watches the box go into the microwave then shakes his head when the bell rings 90 seconds later ... "Ye got flowers growin in your head again. It is not possible to cook food that quickly."
Has to be convinced that the food truly is cooked.
Has to be convinced that it truly is food.
Actually, still not convinced of that.
Has to be stopped from accidentally putting a metal spoon in the microwave.
This... machine... doubles as an explosive device?
Why not just cook food the normal way, and use this machine as a weapon?

Rexwalker Ask Meme
This was going around as an ask meme but I actually had solid answers for my brand of Rexwalker and HMMM I am being consumed by ship feels lately so:
Which one sexts like a straight white boy?
I actually have no idea what that would even entail but I’m assuming Anakin. Rex doesn’t even know how to sext so that avenue ends pretty quick.
Rex: Just comm me. I need my hands. Anakin: ... Anakin: Well then.
Which one cried during a fucking disney movie?
Rex. He got hit hard by the underlying wholesome messages compounded by his weird af upbringing that geared him entirely towards war. It was probably Lilo and Stitch that got him now that I think about it. Also Fox and the Hound still comes for me to this day.
Who put a goddamned fork in the microwave?
Rex was either never told why he shouldn’t or forgot he left it in the tupperware with his food. Anakin puts a fork in the microwave for shits and giggles
Who does the silly hands-over-the-eyes “Guess who” thing?
Anakin 100%. Rex would but he also knows for fact that Anakin can pick him out of all his brothers even when they’ve swapped their armour around. That man can sense him approaching well in advance.
Who puts their cold hands/feet on their partner?
Anakin because he’s a bastard man and can use his metal hand for extra emotional damage
Who had that embarrassing Reality TV marathon?
Rex was flipping between channels one day out of boredom and stopped on one once. Anakin finds him an hour later intrigued by the train wreck and Anakin always enjoys watching chaos.
Who laughs more during sex?
Anakin but only narrowly because I imagine he can feel Rex’s humour through a feedback loop in the Force so that adds to his own. Also I feel like Rex is the one who likes making Anakin laugh.
WHO IS THE LITTLE SPOON?
Anakin, he likes being cuddled and Rex has nice strong arms.

𝗖𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗻𝘀 : The Sakamaki Brothers As Soups
Tumblr media
Shu Sakamaki : 
Beef and Vegetable Soup
He really gives me beef soup vibes
Probably microwaved because he wouldn’t care enough to put in on the stove
Even though the soup is basic it would not taste good
There would be whole peppercorns in there, but hey at least there was an attempt to season it
Tumblr media
Reiji Sakamaki
Mushroom Soup
This was a hard one to decide
It’s fancy enough however he would insist on being called a Truffle Bisque
It would come from a can but the presentation makes you believe it was freshly made
Tumblr media
Ayato Sakamaki
Chicken Broth (cold)
Ayato is just straight up chicken broth
I’m sorry to any Ayato simps i offend
Like not even warmed, just cold chicken broth
Also from a box 
Tumblr media
Kanato Sakamaki
New England Clam Chowder
So I’m going off of 1 hour of sleep rn
I can’t explain this one
He really just reminds me of clam chowder
Tumblr media
Laito Sakamaki
French Onion (except made with dishwater)
Looks very appetizing at first
Once you take a bite you realize your error
The dishwater would be very soapy in flavor
The presentation is immaculate however
Tumblr media
Subaru Sakamaki
Canned Chef Boyardee
It would most definitely be microwaved in the can yet somehow still be cold
The spoon would also be microwaved
Its a miracle it didn’t burn down the manor
Despite the smell of burning metal, it wouldn’t taste half bad
