Plum Chocolate Cake
Tumblr media
I spent yesterday's afternoon in the excellent company of my friends Clo and Mel. Clo was hosting us as Mel was visiting from Lyon where she now lives. We've known each other since high school, and it's such a delight to gather around something delicious to eat, like this Plum Chocolate Cake I baked for the occasion, and watch the day stretch into night as we laugh, eat and drink in a joyous atmosphere!
Ingredients (serves 8 to 10):
90 grams/3 ounces good quality dark chocolate
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 3/4 cup plain flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup demerara sugar
2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
a pinch of salt
3 large eggs
1/3 cup Greek Yoghurt
1 teaspoon Homemade Vanilla Extract
1 tablespoon Damson Gin
3 dozens halves Damson Plums used to make Damson Gin
Preheat oven to 160°C/320°F.
Butter and and line a 20cm/8" round cake tin with baking paper; set aside.
In a medium bowl over simmering water, melt dark chocolate with butter, stirring until smooth and silky. Remove from the heat. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, demerara sugar and cocoa powder. Give a good stir to mix.
Dig a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, and break in the eggs. Add Greek Yoghurt and Vanilla Extract, and give a good stir, until just blended. Then, stir in melted chocolate, Damson Gin and two dozens of the Damson Plum halves.
Pour batter into prepared tin, levelling with the back of the spoon. Arrange remaining Damson Plum halves on top.
Place tin in the middle of the hot oven, and bake, at 160°C/320°F, 35 to 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
Remove from the oven, and allow to cool slightly, before removing from the tin and peeling off the baking paper.
Serve Plum Chocolate Cake warm or cooled, with a cup of tea.

Grid Kids: y/n pregnency!!
Grid Kids: Bun in the Oven
Sebastian Vettel x wife!Reader x platonic!drivers
Summary: moments with the grid kids during your pregnancy
Series Masterlist
Tumblr media
Kicking Up a Storm
“Did the little one just ...” Charles’ eyes widen as he pulls back his hand abruptly from where it had been resting on your stomach.
Lando, lounging on the other side of the room with a video game controller in hand, smirks, “Did what? Tried to escape? Can’t blame it, considering the rest of its siblings."
You swat playfully at Lando as Max and George, engrossed in assembling a nursery chair, look up in anticipation. “Come on, let us feel!” Max pleads, abandoning the chair pieces on the floor.
As everyone gathers around, taking turns to gently place their hands on your baby bump, you feel a flutter, a gentle kick responding to their touch. The room fills with gasps of wonder and joy.
“Feels like a future driver if you ask me,” George grins, looking at Sebastian, who chuckles, already imagining another Vettel on the tracks.
Lance, feeling a tad left out, decides to jump in. “Can it hear us? Hello in there, it’s your brother Lance! Remember to pick me as the fun brother, okay?”
Mick, who has been reading every pregnancy book he could get his hands on, chimes in, “You do realize the baby can’t differentiate voices yet, right?”
Lance waves him off, “Details, details.”
Cravings Are No Joke
“Pickles and chocolate? Seriously?” Max raises an eyebrow, holding up the two seemingly mismatched items as he stands in the middle of a grocery store aisle.
Lance, pushing the cart, shrugs. “Don’t question the cravings, just go with it.”
Charles, scrolling through the list on his phone, adds, “Oh and don’t forget the spicy ramen, blueberry pie, and ... pineapple pizza?”
George groans, “Pineapple pizza? Come on! Anything but that. I’m not even Italian and I’m still offended.”
Lando, with an impish grin, quips, “Remember when she wanted the mango gelato at 3 am? That was a fun drive.”
Mick chuckles, “Or the time we went to five different bakeries just to find that particular lemon cake she couldn’t live without.”
Lance pauses, looking thoughtful, “And wasn’t there a phase where she only wanted foods that were purple?”
George nods, “Yep, aubergines, purple potatoes, grapes ... I still can’t look at a plum without laughing.”
As the grid kids continue shopping, picking out items based on the rather diverse list you gave them, they share more anecdotes of the past months. The store’s other patrons watch in amusement as the young men navigate the aisles, often debating the merits of various brands or flavors, all to ensure they get it just right for you.
Later, back home, your grid kids proudly present their haul. You and Sebastian look on with affection as they lay out the eclectic mix of food.
“Did you guys get everything?” You ask, trying to hide your laughter.
Max feigns offense at being questioned, “Of course, we’re professionals.”
Sebastian leans in to whisper in your ear, “I’m just glad they didn’t try cooking this time. Remember the schnitzel incident?”
You giggle, recalling the disastrous attempt. “Of course I do. I was cleaning flour off the cabinets and ceiling for weeks. But hey, it’s the thought that counts.”
It’s a …
The preparations for your gender reveal are in full swing at the local park and your grid kids are at the heart of it. They’ve split into two factions: Team Girl, led by Charles and Lance, and Team Boy, spearheaded by Max and Lando.
Charles and Lance have laid out a series of pink challenges, including a three-legged race where participants wear pink tutus. “It’s going to be a girl, no doubt about it!” Lance proclaims confidently.
Max and Lando, on the other hand, have a blue-themed obstacle course, complete with a mini kart race. Lando, wearing a blue bandana, shouts over the ruckus, “I have no idea what you’re talking about because it’s definitely a boy.”
George has taken on the role of referee. Dressed in a striped shirt, whistle in hand, he’s ensuring that the competition remains friendly. “Remember, it’s all in good fun!” he reminds everyone, though his “Team Girl” badge suggests where his loyalties lie.
Mick, though undecided, has tie-dye patches of both blue and pink on his shirt. “I just want a healthy sibling for all of us,” he says with a gentle smile, standing back and enjoying the antics.
Sebastian, watching the chaos unfold, leans over and whispers in your ear, “Did we really think letting them plan this was a good idea?”
You laugh, “It’s a bit crazy but look at them. They’re having the time of their lives!”
The moment everyone’s been waiting for finally arrives. At the center of the park, a large, sealed box waits. As you and Sebastian approach, the grid kids form a circle around it, their playful banter coming to a halt.
With a shared look of excitement, you both pull on the ribbon. The box flaps open, releasing a cloud of ... green smoke?
The park erupts in a mixture of laughter and confusion.
Max looks baffled, “Green?”
Charles chuckles, “Guess neither team wins today!”
Lando, trying to waft away the smoke, jokes, “Alien? Oh my god, you’re having an alien!”
Mick wraps an arm around you, “Like I said, as long as it’s healthy.”
You smile, nestling into Sebastian’s side, “We thought we’d keep everyone guessing for a little longer.”
False Alarm
“Sebastian! The baby! I think it’s happening!” You exclaim, feeling a sudden tightening in your abdomen.
Sebastian, who was in the middle of mediating a lively debate with Max and Charles over who will be the baby’s favorite brother, nearly trips over the rug in his rush to get to you. “Okay, okay, okay. Deep breaths, in and out.”
Lance, eyes wide as saucers, frantically begins googling “how to deliver a baby” on his phone while George starts making a list of things needed for the hospital. “Towels! We need towels, right?”
Lando is somewhere on another planet, muttering to himself, “This isn’t happening. I am not ready to see a baby being born. Nope, nope, nope.”
Mick tries to restore some order. “Calm down everyone. Y/N, are you sure it’s really labor?"
Before you can respond, Charles bursts through the door, holding a bucket of ice. “I read somewhere you might need ice. Here!”
You laugh through the discomfort, appreciating the chaos ensuing because of your grid kids’ concern. "Actually guys, I think it’s just Braxton Hicks. False alarm.”
A collective sigh of relief sweeps the room. Sebastian, still slightly pale, pulls you into a hug, “You sure know how to keep things exciting.”
Lance looks up from his phone, “What’s Braxton Hicks?”
“It’s like a rehearsal for the real thing,” George explains, folding up his hastily made list.
Max, trying to regain his cool, smirks, “Well, if that was a rehearsal, the main event is going to be epic.”
You chuckle, patting your belly, “Guess the little one just wanted to see how quickly you all could jump into action.”
Putting the “Student” in “Student Drivers”
As you and Sebastian sit on the couch, going over your prenatal class schedule, a curious George peeks over. “What’s that? Are those the birthing classes?”
You nod, “Yep! We’re starting next week. It’ll help us prepare for the big day.”
Suddenly, Charles pops up beside George, eyes widening in interest. “Can we come?”
“That sounds cool! I’ve always wondered what those classes are like.” Lando chimes in from where he’s keeping an ear out in the kitchen.
Sebastian looks a bit overwhelmed, “I thought it was just going to be the two of us.”
Lance joins the group, scrolling through a magazine article about celebrity dads attending birthing classes. “Look at this! It’s a thing now. We could all go and support you both.”
Max adds, “Besides, we’re family. We’ve been there through everything else. Why not this?”
“Do they even allow so many people to join?” Mick ponders.
You can’t help but laugh at the eager faces in front of you. “I never thought I’d have to bring an entourage to a birthing class.”
Sebastian rubs his temples. “Okay, how about this? We’ll ask the instructor if it’s okay. If they allow it, you guys can join on one condition.”
Lando bounces on his toes, “What’s that?”
“No teasing or making jokes during the class. We’re there to learn and be supportive.”
Charles nudges Max, “That’s mainly directed at you.”
Max fakes innocence. “Me? I would never!”
You shake your head, “Alright, I’ll call tomorrow and see if our little ... or rather large group can attend.”
Your grid kids cheer, excited about the new adventure. As they scatter, already planning and discussing among themselves, Sebastian leans over to whisper in your ear, “This baby is already turning our world upside down and they’re not even here yet.”
You smile and squeeze his hand, “With this family, every moment is an adventure.”
***
The birthing center’s usual tranquil ambiance is slightly offset by the excited chatter of the grid kids as you all enter. The instructor, a calm and composed woman named Clara, raises an eyebrow at the large group but doesn’t comment. After all, it’s not every day that half of the Formula 1 grid walks into her class.
The session starts with everyone introducing themselves. Most couples share sweet stories of their relationship journey. When it's your turn, Sebastian starts, “I’m Sebastian, this is my wife, Y/N,” he pauses, motioning to the group, “and these are ... our sons.”
The room erupts in chuckles. One of the expectant mothers quips, “That’s a lot of kids! You two have been busy!”
Clara moves on with the class, demonstrating breathing techniques. Everyone’s earnest attempt to follow along results in a mix of deep breathing, snorts, and a few stifled laughs. At one point, Max, struggling to get the rhythm right, looks over at Lando and mutters, “I feel like I’m preparing to go underwater.”
When it comes time for practicing labor positions, the grid kids enthusiastically volunteer. George and Charles end up demonstrating a position, with George playing the supporting partner and Charles the laboring mom-to-be. The sight of Charles leaning into George, pretending to be in labor, has the room laughing, especially when Charles exaggerates with dramatic moans.
Lance and Mick take a turn next and when Lance offers words of encouragement to “pregnant” Mick, saying, “You’re doing great, sweetie,” you almost fall off your chair laughing.
Towards the end of the class, Clara demonstrates the use of a birthing ball. Lando decides to take a leap onto one only to bounce off, crashing into Max and sending both of them tumbling to the ground. The room is in stitches.
Despite their hilarious antics, your grid kids genuinely try to grasp the concepts, asking thoughtful questions and engaging in the exercises.
As the class wraps up, Clara approaches you with a smile. “I must say, this has been the most ... lively class I’ve ever taught.”
You grin, “That’s one way to put it.”
She chuckles, “But it’s clear they all care deeply for you and want to support you both in any way they can.”
Sebastian nods, wrapping an arm around you, “We’re very lucky to have them.”
For Real This Time
Lando and Charles are in the middle of a heated argument over the best way to make a sandwich (complete with props and charts) when you suddenly feel a warm sensation. Looking down, your eyes widen. “Uh, guys?”
“What is it?” Sebastian jumps up right away.
You swallow, “I think my water just broke.”
For a moment, there’s stunned silence. Then … mayhem.
Max yells, “To the car! Now!” while Lance scrambles to grab the pre-packed hospital bag.
George accidentally knocks over a vase in his attempt to find your phone. “Sorry! We can clean that up later, right?”
Mick tries to maintain calm, “Everyone, deep breaths, remember the class?”
Lando, eyes wide, mutters, “This is nothing like the class.”
Upon arriving at the hospital, the reception area becomes a scene of organized chaos. As Sebastian wheels you in, the grid kids follow in a flustered procession.
A nurse at the reception desk blinks in surprise. “Is there a convention in town?”
Mick, panting slightly, replies, “No, just family.”
Lando adds, “The biggest family you’ve ever seen.”
Another nurse, recognizing some of the faces, chuckles, “Formula 1 drivers in the maternity ward? Now I’ve seen everything.”
Inside, as the medical team preps you, the grid kids stand outside, pacing and nervously waiting. They take turns peeking through the small window, offering waves and thumbs-up.
Sebastian holds your hand and doesn’t complain once as you grab back hard enough to break every bone in it, “You know, I’ve faced pressure on the track but this ... this is on another level.”
You chuckle, squeezing his hand, “Just remember, I’m doing the hard part.”
Soon enough, after what feels like both a minute and a lifetime, the beautiful cry of your newborn fills the room. Your grid kids, hearing the sound, cheer loudly, causing several nurses to hush them.
Charles, tears in his eyes, says, “We’re big brothers now. Like, for real.”
“Wait,” Lando interjects, “aren’t you already a big brother?”
“Shush mate, let me have this moment.”
Max rolls his eyes but smiles, “Welcome to the family, little one. We’re a bit crazy but we already love you so much.”

fairest city food culture
Tumblr media
This is a supplementary post to continue off of this larger TWST food culture compilation post (as that one is getting super long as is). Here, I'll cover all the new food-related lore dropped about the Shaftlands and specifically about Fairest City, which features in the Tapis Rouge event.
Shaftlands
Macarons are one of the Shaftlands' signature sweets. Cream and raspberry, as well as lychee, are the popular flavors at the moment.
Macarons can be frozen so recipients can eat them fresh.
There are people who collect the stylish boxes that macarons come in.
According to Vil, mixing flavored syrups with carbonated liquids is common in the Shaftlands.
Stewed foods are the Shaftlands' specialty. This is because there are many stories about the Fairest Queen preparing many foods in a pot.
Apples are the most popular fruit in the Shaftlands. They are used for drinks, desserts, jams, and even savory meal items.
Fairest City
There are few food stands in Fairest City. This is because eating on the streets is seen as bad manners.
There is a strong cafe culture.
Fairest City is famous for its cuisine and sweets. Their sweets in particular are well developed due to the city's cafe culture.
Sweets with a pleasant appearance are popular. The most famous of patisseries make sweets which are like pieces of art.
Some sweets featured in famous patisseries include tarts, chocolate, mousse, macarons, brioche, roll cakes, financiers, mille-feuilles, and cakes shaped like apples with apple sauce inside, caramel apples, etc.
A specialty of Fairest City is "cream puff rings", which are cream puffs in ring shapes. They are meant to resemble wheels on rail cars, since Fairest City is located near mines. It is said that the cream puff rings (which is filled with a thick, high-calorie cream) were originally given to hard-working miners to restore their energy.
Luxury stores may offer amenities in addition to providing their services or helping customers shop. For example, staff may offer VIP clients drinks or chocolates.
Fairest City’s hotels have swanky restaurants built into them for guests to dine in. The fanciest of eating establishments are five star restaurants that have full sets of cutlery and napkins which you unfold and place in your lap.
Fancy dining establishments offer food à la carte (ordered by the plate) and prix fixe style (picking your courses from a predetermined selection).
There is a drink called “Diabolo Menthe” served in Fairest City. It is a spearmint flavored syrup mixed with a slightly carbonated liquid. Very refreshing! (This is most likely a reference to the potion that the Evil Queen drinks to transform into an old woman.)
Eric Venue, Vil’s famous movie star father, uses a five-star restaurant to cater buffets for his movie shoots for every 6 hours of work. They also have snacks and drinks on demand (“craft services”), which includes coffee, milk, tea, juice, chocolate, fruits, and pancakes and waffles. Lots of light foods!
Many dishes at high-class eateries are French. For example, hors d’oeuvres might include escargot (snails), foie gras de canard (duck foie gras), and terrine a la campagne (country-style terrine). Courses are also named in French (viande and poisson courses, etc.).
Some dishes served include boeuf bourguignon (a beef and red wine stew) filet mignon de porc aux pruneaux (a pork filet with dried plum; it is made with pig heart, bouillon, and sauce), and flounder poêlé (flounder with an herb sauce). The beef bourguignon is a favorite dish in the five-star hotel restaurant that caters for Eric Venue.
Pork, especially the heart, is prized meat in Fairest City. Many of its dishes are pork-based. There is a story about how the Fairest Queen needed a heart for one of her potions and had her huntsman hunt as a tribute to her; the filet mignon de porc aux pruneaux dish was born from this legend.
The restaurant that caters for Eric Venue has a specialty dessert called tart fine pomme. It is a thin tart with slices apples. The restaurant uses the highest quality of apples (from Harveston), which are grown in a special soil, for their dishes and drinks.

Ministry Holidays : Beltane
A small series of how the ministry celebrates the Wheel of the Year, following my personal headcanon that the ghouls and Siblings of Sin observe the solstices and equinoxes.
Beltane, celebrated the first day of May, marks the start of the transition from Spring into Summer.
The ministry has a very thorough deep cleaning in the weeks leading up to Beltane. This is their "spring cleaning" time, when they get rid of any old clutter and clear out their wardrobes.
On the evening of May 1st, the fire ghouls work to start a bonfire in the middle of the courtyard. Any old unwanted items or things one is ready to let go of can be thrown into the fire. Dewdrop keeps it from spreading or getting out of control.
The nuns have a small series of dances and races, a friendly competition all eventually narrowing down to one winner who is crowned their "May Queen". The victorious Sister gets a big crown of flowers to wear for the rest of the night and to hang on her door as a wreath afterwards.
The Ghouls and Sisters weave crowns from foliage to gift to each other. The ghouls end up with multiple crowns on their heads or hanging from their horns, from Siblings of Sin showing their gratitude for all the hard work their demons do.
Mountain is given the most love during Beltane. Earth ghouls are the most closely linked to the holiday, and it's when all his efforts in the garden really start to show. His antlers are decorated with deep red ribbons by Sisters and Ghouls alike all showing him their appreciation.
A giant picnic takes place in the gardens. Every table they can find is dragged outside, candles and lanterns are lit throughout, and bright red strands of flowers are hung between the trees.
The tables are piled with dark fruit, honey cakes, various smoked meats, and the most rich chocolate desserts you can imagine, with plum wine from last year's summer to go with it all.
It's a very sensual holiday and it's not uncommon to see Ghouls and Sisters getting amorous around the fire--or Sisters and Sisters, or Ghouls and Ghouls. It's considered a lucky time for couples.
More adult activities and rituals are planned in the garden later in the night, after anyone who doesn't wish to partake has gone inside. Everyone is very respectful and they all wait for any uninterested or uncomfortable Ghouls and Sisters to go to bed before such activities begin.
--Swiss will inevitably begin stripping at some point in the night. Plum wine is his favorite. There's bets on how long he can keep his clothes on.

Can I request something? 👉🏼👈🏼
if it’s yes. Can you do a coffee date with DI!Leon? in winter vibe, I think it will be cute and fun to hang out with him.
Tumblr media
winter’s sweet invitation ❅.
Tumblr media
₊❏❜content ⋮ dl!leon x f!reader. one-shot. smut free. just fluff ;).
Tumblr media
you were eager to finally spend some time with leon, outside of work. he’s been working overtime and is always taking the biggest naps after his shift; his schedule is so packed, you two rarely spend time together anymore.
but today he made some changes.
ding.
you turn your attention to the illuminated cellular device, and you smile.
my gringito ♡ — i’m on my way, love. just stopped at the gas station, is there anything you’d like?
you — i’m fine really, don’t worry :).
my gringito ♡ — alright, text you when i’m there.
you wait patiently in the cafe, gazing outside the frosted windows that were draped with white curtains, decorated with fairy lights. it was a snowy afternoon. the snow, accumulated and packed into small ice crystals; like the ice has been broken down into tiny flakes, white and cold, but lighter in weight. a few minutes go by, your phone buzzes and the door jingles open. you turn towards the direction the noise came from and were met with a cold breeze that fanned you as you slightly shivered.
“leon!” you smile, springing up and jumping into your boyfriends arms. “someone looks awfully excited to see me.” he chuckled softly, tightly clasping his arms around your width. “how are you darling?” he asked, his tone deep and masculine.
“i’m great actually, now that you’re here.” you chime as he presses a kiss to your lips, “and how are you?” you murmur; eyes glinting in the cafe’s shade, “i could say the same.” leon kisses, “you look gorgeous, as always.”
you blush, “it’s nothing really, you look..” you pause to admire his appearance. long bangs framing his face, defined jawline with a stubbled chin, furrowed brows and his iconic heavy leather jacket atop his broad shoulders.
“hot.”
he chuckles at your statement and you feel your cheeks go warm. “oh my love, why don’t you go order? drinks are on me.” you nod, as the two of you head to the front. you ogle the menu, eyeing all the options. “hi, may i take your order?”
“hello, one cappuccino, the sugar plum cheese danish, and the chocolate cake pop.” you hum, “and he’ll take the..” you glance at leon who’s already staring at you.
“hm.. i think i’ll take the cinnamon dolce latte and the glazed doughnut.” he answered. “is that all?” the cashier asked as leon glances over at you again. “that’s all, thank you.” you reply as leon nods. he whips his wallet out and hands the lady his card.
the card approves and she hands you two the receipt. “c’mon let’s take a seat,” leon crooned, his hand grabbing the chairs backrest as he pulls it out for you; beckoning you to sit down.
you take your seat and he pushes your chair a bit forward, and he tugs a chair out backwards for himself. “it’s been a while since we’ve gone on a date.” you breathe out steadily. “yeah, i’m glad i can make up for it now.” he smiles sweetly, “we’ve almost hit a year of dating, anything you want to do to celebrate?” leon asks.
“wow it’s already been a year?” you giggle, “time flies doesn’t it? hm, well actually.. i don’t know.. what’re you planning on doing?” you quirk a brow.
just then your number gets called out and leon smiles mischievously. he gives you a look before he stands up, walking over to the counter up front and coming back with a tray of sweet confections and drinks.
“soo.. you know how i’m working a lot?” he began, setting down the tray between the two of you. “mhm.” you hum, turning your attention to him as you grab your cappuccino.
“well, i was thinking of taking you on a trip to paris.” he adds, his eyes search for a reaction from you.
“really?!”
your smile brightens as you clasp your hands together. “of course, you’ve always told me you wanted to go to the eiffel tower one day, so why not go now since i’m offering you the chance?” leon explains, stuffing his hand into his pocket.
“oh leon! that’ll be a dream come true, i’m so excited!” you squeal, “imagine all the things we could do there as a couple!”
leon melts at the thought of purposing to you in paris; he clutches a small box in his hand as his gaze softens on you.
“when are we going?” you ask, snapping him out of his thoughts. “oh, uhm this winter?” he says, gulping down his latte.
“i can’t wait, that’s so romantic, especially since the holiday season is coming up. that’ll be the best christmas gift.” you ramble, his hand reaches to interlace with yours. “anything to make you happy.” he coos, handing you your cheese danish as you take a bite.
you take a couple more drinks from your cappuccino, the hot beverage tingling your throat. you lick the outer part of the cake pops shell, your warm tongue melts chocolate as it syrups into your mouth.
the edges of your lips curve into a warm and delicate grin. “tastes delicious.” you hum, you stuff the cake pop into your mouth; this time actually taking a bite.
leon bites his doughnut, “it’s as sweet as you.” he laughs and you roll your eyes. “have you bought the tickets yet?” you asked, taking another bite of your cheese danish. “mmmm, actually yeah. i did it this weekend, a month in advance so we can plan out where we want to visit first.”
your eyes widen in excitement. “seriously?! oh my gosh.” your jaw opens.
“did you book the hotel already?”
“hm. i was planning to book them mid november, i was also thinking of taking you to loire valleys castle while we’re there.” leon adds, finishing his snack.
“the tickets are at least a hundred n fifty leon, that’s too expensive.”
“i know. but i’ve been working overtime for a reason.” he winks.

The start of hibernation.
On a cold October day that sent chills down your spine, you could tell something was off in the air. Kevin was always the skinny, short, and shy type of guy in his late 20s. Kevin was always underweight which worried his big-boned bear of a friend Michael. Thus in a last-ditch attempt, he concocted an idea to plum up his friend.

Kevin was kinda skeptical to go, but he ended up going anyway. As he knocked on Micheals's door he could smell a delicious aroma coming from the other side. When Micheal opened the door the smell of a full three-course meal bombarded his nose. His stomach churned in curiosity at what was waiting for him at the dining table. "Yo man, what have you been up to" Said Michael. "Nothing much and you man" responded Kevin. "Life has treated me well so far. Are you ready for the meal of a lifetime" Kevin walked in as he felt an unease as if what was awaiting from him was much more than just a meal. As he sat down on Michael's cushioned chairs he felt all of his doubts go away. Then came the first plate: A full rack of ribs supersaturated with barbecue. With a diced-up buttered-up sausage and a grilled barbecued chicken. With a side of deep-fried salted fries. A diced pickle and a toasted bread. Lastly for a drink a pint of beer. All have a light dusting of something on top of the food.

Kevin wasn't sure if he could eat it all but once he took his first bite he was hypnotized and couldn't do anything but just eat and eat. And after a few minutes, Kevin was done with the plate. He didn't even notice the weight slowly packing on him the chair slightly starined in Kevin's new weight. The next plate was Burgur with a foot-in radius. with a slice of delicious and crunchy bacon. A side of fries and 16 buffalo wings. And a huge chocolate milkshake. And like last time he slurped everything up. Once he looked down everything was gone. His stomach jutted out so much more and his whole body started to become super itchy. He was slowly transforming into a carbon copy of Micheal. The chair has holding on or dear life about to break under the pressure of his weight. Kevin is almost done with his bear transformation.

And just like that, all the food was gone and the only thing that was left was dessert. The last thing left was a triple chocolate cake, with whipped cream to enhance its delicious ad moist taste. Once Kevin took the first bite he fell deeper into the rabbit hole and ate the whole cake.

By the time he was done, he felt like he was about to pop. He broke out of the spell and once he looked down he saw a bear of a man. Kevin stood up to assess the damage that has been done. His stomach was so far out that he couldn't see his feet. And not to mention that but he was also 2 feet taller. He was somewhat aroused but the transformation and felt that his dick had also grown. He was so turned on that he rushed to the bathroom the jerk off. He left Micheal there and turned on with his beautiful masterpiece. Kevin started to touch all around his body exploring all the cracks and crevivces. He loved the feeling of his new coat. His hands had grown and had roughened up. Thus this was a new feeling for him. Because of this, he came faster than he usually did. As he came out with nothing on since non of his old clothes didn't fit he went to the dining room and then reality set in. He was so scared of his new body and saw no one else to blame but Micheal. But Micheal calmed him down and showed him that there was nothing to be afraid of and then he kissed Kevin in a long and passionate kiss.

Hey Niu, Nick here! 170 ice cream flavours?? What has been some of the best and worst you've had out of the list?
The worst (⊙x⊙;)
Raspberry-chili-salmiakki (salty licorice). It was scorching hot and burned so bad I couldn't finish it. I don't know how the hell it is still on the markets, like, who eats that shit????? The ONLY ice-cream ever which I have not finished.
Beer. Didn't taste anything, had a mild crop's aftertaste only.
Mudcake. A way too heavy for my taste!
Soft orange cake/Jaffa cake. It was also very sweet and heavy.
Champagne-Chocolate. Couldn't really taste the champagne in it, could have been just an ordinary chocolate ice-cream.
Plum-chocolate. The plum was overpowering and it tasted more like some weird plum bakery than ice-cream. Very heavy.
The best (* ̄3 ̄)╭
Spruce. Really fresh and sweet with a bit similar taste to a pistachio ice-cream.
Milk. Very fresh, creamy and comforting taste.
Royal Milk Tea. Honestly, one of the best out there. Combines a bit of this earthiness of tea with creamy milk.
(German) Spekulatius Cookie. Tastes like good quality caramel ice-cream with soft seasoning of Christmas.
Matcha. You either love or hate this. Someone who hates this said that it tastes like just cut grass lol. I like it's strong flavor.
Purple potato. Sounds weird but it's nicely earthy and sweet at the same time. Give it a try if you find any!
Tangerine-Yogurt-White chocolate. Tangerine makes such a wonderful ice-cream!
Cinnamonroll. Makes one of the best ice-creams out there.
