The Perfect Surprise
Pairing: Natasha Romanoff x Pregnant! Reader
Summary: Wanda and Maria surprises you with a baby shower with Nat having an extra surprise
Translations: Detka (baby),
Warnings: Slight Language Warning, Pregnancy Talk | 0.9K
AC: As always, I have used a random generator to pick the baby’s gender! I hope you enjoy this x
Tumblr media
Waking up to the gentle soft hand of your wife rubbing your baby bump was something you quickly grew to love, every morning when Natasha would get back from the gym, she would whisper sweet things to your unborn baby which eventually would wake you. You couldn't help but smile softly as you watched her hand move up and down your stomach with care. 
"Good morning darling" Natasha whispered before placing a kiss on your cheek, "Are you ready for today?" she asked. You nodded. Yesterday Maria and Wanda had told you that they planned a baby shower for you and Natasha. "Are you ready for today?" You asked Nat knowing she hated having attention put on her. She chuckled with a nod, "I also have a surprise for you today" she replied.
You tilted your head slightly, "is that so?" You questioned. 
Natasha had this planned for a while, but she wasn't sure how to go about delivering the surprise so when Wanda and Maria came to her four days ago and poked her about the baby shower, she decided to give the women the scrap of torn paper the doctor gave her months ago, she never looked at it no matter how much it tempered her. 
You didn't want to know the gender of your baby unless Nat wanted too so when she said she wanted to wait, you believed her. Little did you know, she had the doctor write the gender down and she's been carrying it in her purse since. She told Wanda and Maria to get creative as the gender would be a surprise for the both of you. 
"What do you have planned?" You questioned when Nat just smirked and placed a kiss on your baby bump. "You'll find out later today" she said softly before pushing herself off the bed and walking into the bathroom. 
----
Everybody from the Avengers to your friends and family were gathered outside at the back of the compound looking over the city of New York. Plenty of laughter and chatter filled the air as you took some time to talk to everybody who had come up to you and Natasha, congratulating you both on the next chapter of your lives. 
The outdoor entertainment area was decorated with plenty of blues, pinks, yellows, greens and other gender-natural-colored items, a large board was placed near the sweet candy treats for guests to write their guesses down for what you and Nat might call the baby, the length, weight and gender and whoever would get the closest to the correct answer would win a $50 online gift card once the baby was born. 
"I sure hope there isn't a knife in that box Yelena" you chucked as you watched Yelena place the gift on the table among the other gifts, "do you think so low of me? To give my niece of nephew a knife to welcome them into this world?" the blonde replied as she came up and gave you a hug. 
"It's debatable" you chuckled. 
"Don't worry, I made sure it wasn't a real knife" Kate inserted herself, reaching in for a hug and congratulating you. Yelena playfully rolled her eyes before listening to the small talk shared between you, Kate and Natasha. 
Wanda came out carrying a rather large cake that caught your eye, watching as she placed it in the center of the table full of finger food. It was rounded, one half blue and the other half pink with a red hourglass symbol in the middle with the words "Super-She or Super-He?" On top. 
"Surprise" Natasha whispered as she gently rubbed your baby bump from behind. 
"I thought you said you wanted to wait" you turned to her. 
"I know but we literally can't set up the nursery without knowing, it's driving you crazy" the redhead admitted. Playfully, you slapped your wife's hand, "I think I've been doing great with all the gender neutral items and colours" you replied but you couldn't deny that you were just as curious and excited to know the gender as much as Nat. 
Natasha just shook her head and placed a kiss on your cheek before the two of you continued to talk with guests until Wanda got everybody's attention. "Nat, Y/n, we hope that this next chapter of your lives is everything you expect and more. Not only is your beautiful baby already so loved by the two of you, but they're loved by everybody here today. I'm not going to drag this on because I know you're eager to know little widow's gender but also because Steve is sweating that he's not giving a speech" Wanda said causing everybody to laugh at her fun at Steve who just shook his head. 
"Both of you take a knife and cut into a side of the cake each" Wanda added. Excitement made your hands slightly shake as you brought the silver knife to the blue side of the cake, Nat's knife hovering over the pink side. 
"Ready?" Nat looked at you with her famous smirk. You nodded, "on 3?" You asked. 
"Always"
On 3 you and Nat cut into the cake, slowly Natasha pulled out her slice to relief the cake's red valet color while you slowly pulled out your slice to a blue color. "Congratulations guys!!!" Kate bursts with joy as Natasha pulls you in for a deep kiss, smiling against your lips, "we're having a boy!" You whispered, letting the news sink in. Everybody applauded and congratulated you both with the news. 
"You owe me $20" Natasha chuckled, reminding you of the bet the two of you made during your second trimester. You rolled your eyes playfully before kissing her once more, "I love you so much" you whispered. Tears of happiness filling your eyes only for Nat to wipe away, "not near as much as I love you detka" she whispered in reply.

“There are also key phrases that each principal royal like to use. Like you’ll hear “keen” a lot with Kate - that’s Kensington Palace speaking. “Olive branch” is Meghan…There are other ways to tell whose PR has sourced a story. These are just the ones off the top of my head. If anyone else can think of others, please share them!”
This sounds like fun lol! We need a light-hearted palate cleanser after all of the recent Sussexdotcom “we are (royal) family” PR. Meghan’s PR is so easy to spot. “Olive branch,” as you mention, is classic Meg-speak. She likes olives: olive branches, Casa Olive Garden, olive oil lemon cake, guacamole olive green garments, even inadvertent Olive Oyl cosplay. She likes lemons, too (preferably from her Casa Olive Garden lemon trees): lemon olive oil cake, lemon Oscar de la Renta dresses, FLOTUS gift baskets of lemons, Lemonada podcasts.
Other telltale Meghan PR phrases are: 
- “a sweet nod”: if this phrase is in an MM or BRF-adjacent article, it’s from MM’s PR.
- “community”: any reference to “communities” or fostering/building a sense of community is from MM’s PR…maybe because, from childhood on, she has felt isolated/ostracized from a true sense of family or real community?
- “standing in your (fill in the blank)”…“power,” “elegance” (lol), “truth,” yada yada yada: maybe because she has such difficulty standing on her own two feet w/o clinging onto H’s arm or holding his hand?
- “strong, independent woman/feminist”: so ironic, given that Meghan has never been independent, having been supported her entire life by men…father Thomas, hubby Trevor, bf Cory, Harry Charles, and whoever is stupid enough to become her next gazillionaire stooge. And she ~ain’t no feminist, either! Feminists don’t put down other women (cough HLMQEII, Catherine, Charlotte, Ninaki, Melissa Toubati, etc cough), or start false rumors about them (cough Catherine, Rose cough).
- “Princess”: if an article refers to MM as “Princess,” “Princess Meghan,” or to her being seen as a “princess” by young girls/the public, it’s from MM. (Her only valid princess title is “Princess Henry,” and there’s no way she’ll deign to use that.)
- references to MM as a “humanitarian” or a “philanthropist”: in reality, she is neither. MM is a fauxmanitarian, a fake smoke-and-mirrors PR-curated phony who has only ever used poor people as photo-op props. One and done, never to be seen by them again. And “philanthropists” GIVE their own money to charitable causes…MM (and H) TAKE money from charitable causes (Invictus) or from charity scams (Archewell).
- references to MM as a “style/fashion icon,” a “beauty,” to her “glorious mane of hair,” to her “glowing silky smooth skin,” etc: pure MM PR! In fact, her clothes consistently are wrinkled, ill-fitting, untailored, not color-coordinated (does she have some form of color-blindness?), too large, too small, and out of season. She routinely wears fake hair extensions and wigs. And her skincare routine is, well…non-existent? 
These are just a small contribution. No doubt, a future doctoral thesis can, and will, be written about MM’s PR strategy. Perhaps you, Rumor, and Plant can co-author it?

On their wedding day
Trapper, Nurse, Doctor
Trapper
Evan is a traditional guy.
Very traditional.
So this will be a very traditional wedding.
Well, as close as it can get while in the realm.
All killer and survivors are invited.
And all are expected to be on their best behavior.
No killing, no flashlights, no nonsense.
The person most qualified to be a pastor is...No one.
Well, the next best person might be Adam, Adris, or Pinhead.
Ace will volunteer to do it. But Evan won't let him.
He'd ask Jake and Carmina to gather some crows.
This will make a decent substitute for doves.
He'll let Kate and Jeff handle the music.
Sally and Bill are probably the most organized and mature. They'll organize the thing.
Victor could possibly be a ring bearer.
Flower girl? Sadako perhaps?
When all is organized and the day comes, Evan is sweating bullets.
Seeing you walk down the aisle, he just freezes.
You look... Amazing.
He's a loss for words.
He kept with traditional vows, urging you to do the same.
But if you wrote your own he'll be just as happy.
He's going to fumble the ring a bit due to nerves.
The party is as traditional as possible.
Bubba offered to make the food and cake, but you both politely refused.
Nope, no human meat.
He wants a slow dance with you more than anything.
If nothing else happens, that's all he wants.
He's too embarrassed to look you in the eye, but you can tell how happy he is.
Nothing could ruin this moment.
Not even Ghostface and Ace's drunk asses causing a scene.
He'll choose to ignore that.
Today, it's all about the two of you.
Him showing you how much you mean to him, how much he loves you.
Nurse
Sally wants a traditional wedding.
She's a product of her time.
But part of her is hesitant.
It isn't that she doesn't love you
She just never really got over the death of her husband.
He died right in front of her.
The trauma is still standing.
She's gone over the idea of remarrying over and over.
Could she still love her husband from the grave?
Would that be cheating?
What if you died?
Talk to her before the wedding, let her know that you won't be going anywhere.
And that it's natural to still love her husband, even if he's gone.
Finding a dress is going to be near impossible, so she'll have to make one.
And she has been working on it for months.
She doesn't care who is in the wedding party.
She'll accept volunteers as long as they promise to act like adults.
It's a beautiful wedding.
It's obvious she and several others had spent hours decorating the place.
She's been really excited for it, and it shows in her body language.
She wrote her own vows which mentioned how you can always find love in the most unlikely places.
No matter what happens, she'll always be by your side.
People are crying.
She's crying.
She'll even lift her mask for a kiss.
Sally will use her feet to dance, not floating.
It proves a challenge since her legs are weaker, but she's trying really hard.
Oh, and she's absolutely smashing the cake in your face.
Lots of giggling and hugs.
She hadn't been this happy in so long.
And, as long as she has you, he sees no reason to ever be sad.
Doctor
He doesn't really want to have a wedding.
It's not because he doesn't love you!
But he doesn't see the reason to go through all that trouble.
He loves you, you love him.
Can't you just say you're married and not have a wedding?
If you plead enough, he'll cave.
But as soon as he sees you walking down the aisle, he regrets not wanting a wedding.
He's stunned beyond belief.
It's going to take a few minutes before he regains his composure.
Probably going to have to shake him a bit to get him back from.
"Forgive me. You just..."
He still can't finish his sentence.
He'll go with traditional vows, he isn't the best with words.
He might even start crying.
But he'll firmly deny it.
The after party?
Very classy.
Wine, fancy foods, music.
Dancing?
You want him to dance?
Okay, but he's really bad and clumsy.
But as long as you're having fun.
As long as he has you by his side.
He'll be happy.

'In one corner, veteran heavyweight Christopher Nolan. In the other, nimble visionary Greta Gerwig. Their big films come out on the same day – but whose will triumph at the box office?
We live in divisive times. Opinion is more tribal and entrenched than ever, the value of reasoned argument and willing compromise plummeting by the day. This volatility could spread to the multiplex next month, where a battle of the blockbusters is destined to make previous cinematic standoffs – Mothra v Godzilla, Alien v Predator, Kramer vs Kramer – look like games of playground pat-a-cake. Get ready, then, for Barbie v Oppenheimer.
Directed by celebrated auteurs (Greta Gerwig and Christopher Nolan respectively), and hyped by multiple trailers over the past year, both movies are scheduled to open on the same crowded day. Forget your QR codes: this is one time to buy a physical ticket and save the stub to show your grandchildren. Future generations will want to know where you stood on 21 July 2023 when Barbie met the bomb.
Tumblr media
In the pink corner is Gerwig’s DayGlo toy story starring Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken, who while away their days happily but vacuously in Barbie-land. In a plot apparently borrowed from Enchanted and The Purple Rose of Cairo, with a dash of Don’t Worry Darling, they swap their cosseted fairytale existence for our harsh modern world. (The trailer shows Barbie having her police mugshot taken after walloping a Venice Beach groper in the face.) The cast incorporates hot young things Issa Rae, Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Jamie Demetriou and, most excitingly, the new Doctor, Ncuti Gatwa, as well as old hands Michael Cera, Kate McKinnon and Will Ferrell; Helen Mirren is on narrating duties.
The 39-year-old Gerwig is arguably as big a selling point as Robbie or Gosling, as well as a guarantor of quality control. The three-time Oscar nominee directed Lady Bird and Little Women, as well as co-directing with Joe Swanberg the long-distance love story Nights and Weekends, back in the days when she was the doyenne of the lo-fi indie “mumblecore” movement. Her co-writer on Barbie is her partner, the director Noah Baumbach, with whom she wrote gems such as Frances Ha and Mistress America. Back in 2010 when she was promoting Greenberg, the bittersweet Baumbach comedy which became her Hollywood springboard, she spoke of her childhood habit of jumbling up the letters in her name: “In second grade, I’d be writing ‘Great Gerwig, Great Gerwig’ on everything,” she said. These days, it’s more than just an anagram.
Tumblr media
Her opponent is the 52-year-old Nolan, a five-time Oscar nominee who has heft on his side. His is the weightier directing CV (12 films), with Oppenheimer his longest yet: he recently confirmed that it is “kissing three hours”, which makes it more than an hour longer than Barbie. This is serious, spectacular event cinema, shot with Imax cameras and booked long ago into all that format’s venues – to the apparent chagrin of Tom Cruise, whose latest Mission: Impossible adventure opens a week earlier but will be relegated to smaller screens the instant Oppenheimer drops.
Nolan’s cast is every bit as impressive as Gerwig’s; as well as the perpetually haunted Cillian Murphy as the physicist Robert J Oppenheimer, father of the atomic bomb, Nolan has assembled Florence Pugh, Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Rami Malek, Robert Downey Jr, Gary Oldman and Kenneth Branagh. The chances of any of them rollerblading à la Gosling in Barbie are negligible, which may help explain why Gerwig’s film is on track to have the more impressive opening weekend. Not that Oppenheimer will exactly bomb.
Barbie also has the edge when it comes to marketing opportunities, as might be expected of any movie adapted from merchandise. This goes way beyond the valley of the dolls: among the many tie-in products is an inflatable Barbie pool-float golf-cart, a Barbie dog’s basket, and an electric toothbrush capable of 36,000 sonic vibrations a minute – the same effect you get from watching Oppenheimer in Imax.
Unlike Barbie, Nolan’s film probably doesn’t have its own Exclusive Oral Beauty Partner, though given his protagonist’s chain-smoking tendencies there may be a teeth-whitening deal in the offing. And we shouldn’t rule out Oppenheimer throwing its hat in the ring when it comes to headgear. As far back as 2010, one plaintive user on thefedoralounge.com was searching “for a lid like the one the famous nuclear physicist wore,” citing a “2½-inch snap brim and a very thin ribbon” and concluding that “such a hat would be positively atomic”. Factor in the Cillian Murphy effect – this is the man who helped popularise the Peaky Blinders newsboy cap/undercut combo – and the Oppenheimer fedora and brown wool coat could be the look to replace Barbie’s summery pink once the nippier months roll around.
Some mild shade has already been thrown between the film’s respective camps on social media. “Greta Gerwig could do Oppenheimer but Christopher Nolan couldn’t do Barbie,” observed one tweet. Another overreached by proposing that “Margot Robbie could do Oppenheimer but Cillian Murphy couldn’t do Barbie” – clearly the work of someone who has never seen him in Breakfast on Pluto or Peacock. But the encouraging thing about the Barbie v Oppenheimer discourse is that, by and large, it has not followed the contours that often prevail in our online interactions. For anyone who loves cinema, the vibe feels closer to a cuddle than a cage fight.
Tumblr media
There is real genius in this tactic of opening films catering for different audiences on the same day (known as counter-programming). The canny part is not what separates Nolan and Gerwig but what unites them: despite a clear contrast of style and sensibility, both directors possess a comparable skill, intelligence and passion, and tend to inspire loyalty in their fans. This same situation could never have arisen had Oppenheimer been pitted against, say, The Super Mario Bros Movie. Though that film is a smash, having grossed more than $1bn worldwide to date, it has nothing in it to propel cultural conversation along with profits.
Opening two films together that share similar DNA would also produce less of a spark. The experience of going to an afternoon screening of Ghostbusters on opening day in December 1984, then coming out and going straight back in to see Gremlins at teatime, was thrilling for my friends and me as 13-year-olds (especially as Gremlins was rated 15), but it was a routine sort of double bill on reflection: both were comedies that trafficked in the scary or supernatural.
What makes the combination of Barbie and Oppenheimer sing is that it is unlikely but not nonsensical. And though the films’ subjects are markedly different, there will be some overlap between their audiences. The major Rorschach test of our era, one Twitter user has suggested, will be whether you follow Oppenheimer with Barbie or vice versa. It’s no longer the case of “either/or” that it first appeared to be but rather “which one first?”. The Picturehouse chain is even extending the double bill idea by screening a selection of both directors’ past work in the coming weeks; audiences can see Lady Bird take flight alongside Interstellar, or pair Little Women and Dunkirk in a double bill of wartime stories, albeit from different wars.
Contrary to the way the rivalry was initially framed, this is no replay of the hostile Blur v Oasis Britpop war of the mid-1990s. Even the formulation of Barbie v Oppenheimer misrepresents the tenor of this unusual pairing: shouldn’t it be the more harmonious Barbie x Oppenheimer, in the style of today’s brand collaborations? Whichever film prevails financially, the result will be less meaningful to audiences than what these movies represent in a post-pandemic landscape that has seen famished exhibitors begging for new product.
Next month’s clash only came about in the first place because of Nolan’s commitment to cinemas over streaming. He would likely have set up Oppenheimer at his usual home, Warner Bros, had that studio not instigated a policy in 2021 (no longer in force today) of releasing its films simultaneously in cinemas and on HBO Max, in response to uncertainty during the pandemic. (Nolan, remember, had ruled out a streaming release for his previous film, Tenet, back in 2020 when cinema exhibition was at its most precarious.) Warner Bros still hopes to woo him back. Barbie is a Warners film, and if the studio had been distributing both pictures, they would never have let them go out on the same day. But Nolan took Oppenheimer to Universal – hence the scheduling pile-up.
No matter. The impact of Covid and the streaming revolution have been bruising, even in some cases annihilating, to parts of the industry. But contrary to the tagline from Alien Vs Predator – “Whoever wins … we lose” – the outcome of Barbie opening in lockstep with Oppenheimer can only be positive. Whichever one triumphs, cinema rules.'

Ok but my favorite writer - why do I feel like Kate being worried about Edwina is completely unjustified because obviously nothing goes wrong. But not just that though, when Kate is pregnant herself, something does go wrong, while they were least expecting it 👀
You know I don’t think anything big happens with Kate’s pregnancy either, but Anthony is fanatical about everything. He’s unhinged, and Kate has threatened several times to switch doctors if he doesn’t stop secretly putting spinach in things. Putting it in a chocolate cake was too far, she feels. Almost grounds for divorce.

4x08 thoughts part 2
Love how they all said “body swap” in unison, like sure, this is what we do now.
Love Tunji getting to use his own accent. (I’m sure it’s not his actual accent but hey, closer than the American one!)
Bess is banned from the historical society but “Nick” is not. Nickbody Bess couldn’t have just run in and grabbed them?
Nancy as Ace is way more chill than actual Nancy
Can’t wait to be a fly on the wall next time she speaks ASL with Thom and he’s like wtf happened
The face Kennedy makes right after Thom asks to speak to Ace alone is her single best Ace mannerism of the whole episode.
Awww, Ryan, she DOES need Dad #2!!
I really really hope Nick was just being an ass and doesn’t think that the dessert is actually called a tort.
Ok some of Kennedy’s sulky glares are pretty damn good too. She did a better job than I gave her credit for the first time through.
Law school dude may be many things but he sure as hell isn’t 21 and frankly conventionally attractive is pushing it.
Never gonna get over Alex’s Nancy run.
There is no way Nancy would let that little strand of hair remain in Ace’s face. You know she’d be running her hands through it every three seconds.
No yacht club admin has ever been that rude to a yacht club guest and kept her job.
I love wingman Nick, and George actually smiling!
Where did all these waitresses come from and why did they have to open late if they have them?
Love Ryan’s “oh shit” face
Ok, so it’s great that the black door makes you forget what you did and all, and lucky you for eliminating the guilt, but it doesn’t get rid of the evidence does it? What did the dude that got arrested at the yacht club think would happen? The cops would just go away after he forgot?
The head of the evil angel figurehead looks like an old mannequin that lost its wig.
I love that when the door glows red is when she realizes “the black door!” No sweetie that’s a stripey door.
I know others have pointed this out but it never stops being funny that they tried to stay apart for ONE SINGLE DAY before giving it up as a lost cause.
I have questions about the depths of that ocean.
What, no gratuitous wet tshirts? He got soaked! It even made sense!
Yes, of course the happier memories hurt more. You don’t miss the sad ones.
I mean, banishing with kitchen supplies is sort of your brand, Bess.
“Satellite facility” two blocks away from the original location in a building with a public youth center that we’re all sort of ignoring. 🤣 Also I know Maine’s cost of living isn’t super duper high, but he’s gonna run out of money eventually right? Right? The Claw is not bringing it in.
Ok, you’re literally Dad #2, how is that not family?
Where is Ryan living these days?
I want Costco cake now.
Still mad Ace missed the cake fight.
Love that body swap day is a “normal” day. (Autocorrect says body wasp day. I do not need that episode. Doctor Who was bad enough thank you.)
I remembered the thing I forgot last night!! Those poor set dressers who had to clean up the cake fight! I hope someone saved some for them to eat (unless they never wanted to see cake ever again).
Ok, if cake fights were a regular thing you know Kate bought some tarps. Put down the tarp before you throw the cake!!
Love that choked back confession before “good night”.

To the Shadows that Cry Witch /// Chapter 12

Heyyy, so I know I keep posting a little late, but I'm gonna keep trying to post on time because I need to keep on top of things and not spiral into the unscheduledness like I did after I left school lol. ANYWAY, this chapter is the start of where things get interesting and it's hopefully going to be the last shorter chapter I do for a while - I'm going to try and make future chapters over 2-3k words so you guys have something longer to red each week. Enjoy! <3
Summary: Magic was real, but it came at a price. So when two girls end up in the one place they never thought they could reach, strange things began to happen. Good or bad? That's up to them to find out.

Tumblr media
Hobbiton, The Shire – T.A. Mersday 29th September 2939 of the Third Age (1339 in Shire-reckoning)
“Kate! What did I say about wearing your bandages?”
I sheepishly turned around to face a weary Bilbo, a guilty smile on my face. Heaving a sigh, he marched over, pointing expectantly at the discarded bandage roll on the table next to me as he passed, continuing around the furniture to reach the stove across from where I was sitting.
“How was the market?” I asked him as I reached for the roll. Watching him heave a sack onto the table, I began wrapping the material around my right palm. Well, as best as I could with the splint on my left hand.
Erard had revisited the day after Bilbo had dragged him over to help us, slinging along with him a bag full of equipment he had curated from his medical supplies. He spent an hour or so kindly showing us what everything was and how to use it. I had received many bandages that now covered the majority of my skin that was visible, along with a splint he had fashioned out of small, thin planks of wood that he bound in place with yet more bandages around my damaged wrist. My ankle only received a wrap of some type of sturdy material, since Erard had considered it unnecessary for it to have a splint as well.
Kay received just as many bandages, along with one around her head for the large gash on her forehead. She definitely wasn’t a big fan of it, since it made her look as if she was wearing a white bald cap, which I of course kept cackling about, much to her dismay. According to her extreme annoyance, it was preventing the hot injured main character look she was trying to achieve, which obviously made me cackle harder. Finally, Erard had given us both a bag of herbal tea to help alleviate any aches, and each small pot of some type of salve, which he instructed us to use on any open wound, once a day.
Bilbo on the other hand, had spent that time preparing a hefty luncheon, as part of his thanks to Erard, making sure the doctor didn’t leave without a full belly of his best sandwiches and seed cake.
Now it had been three days since Erard’s visit, and thanks to him, we were speedily on the mend. Fast enough to the point that I didn’t feel the need to wear my bandages as much (apart from the splint), much to Bilbo’s frustration. Though it was me forgetting to most of the time, living with an adhd brain and all. My small recollection of events was interrupted as Bilbo began answering my question:
“Not too bad.” He said as he emptied the sack of its contents. “Not bad at all, in fact. The weather has improved tremendously since that nasty storm, not a cloud in the sky the entire time I was there!”
I grimaced at Bilbo mentioning the storm, recalling the unfortunate events that Kay and I had endured. Though I quickly shoved them away as I focused on Bilbo as he rambled on about his experience at marketplace.
“– and got some tremendous pork from Barrowes’ stall, fresh this morning. Should be perfect for this evening’s dinner!”
“It looks amazing.” I commented as he unwrapped the large slab of meat from its casing of brown paper and twine. “What do you suppose would go with it?”
Once again Bilbo went off on a tangent, this time about sides and vegetables. Getting up from my seat, I made sure to make responsive hums and small comments as the hobbit spoke. I picked up the bowl of buttermilk icing I had left on the windowsill earlier and brought it over to the kitchen table, placing it next to the now cool cakes. I had baked two Victoria sponge cakes that morning, deciding that as I healed, I would bake as part of my thanks to Bilbo for letting us stay, and to Erard for his kindness and help – that is, as long as I could remember the recipes. Bilbo handed me a jar of freshly bought jam and I got to work slathering it on the cake halves along with a whipped cream I had made miraculously from scratch. I could see Bilbo eyeing up the cakes with a hungry look, so I made sure to speed up a little to make sure I was finished soon, so we could have it for pudding.
Bilbo and I were chatting away about different types of pastries when Kay ducked in through the doorway from the dining room. You couldn’t tell easily, but you could see a slight tension in the way she held her expression, giving me the impression that she was worried or very confused about something. I waited until she made eye contact with me, before tilting my head slightly in question. She darted her eyes at Bilbo, then back at me, indicating that she would talk to me later. I discreetly nodded my head in agreement and turned back to slathering my cake in an atrocious amount of icing, dropping the subject until later. Bilbo continued with his ramblings about dinner, and Kay soon joined in on helping him prepare it, the conversation turning to how to cook pork properly.
The cakes were a success. Bilbo and Kay’s delicious dinner had filled us all and we finally moved on to trying one of my sponge cakes. By the time Kay and I had finished our slice, Bilbo was onto his third, any compliments practically turning to murmuring chants as he stuck another forkful in his mouth.  I snorted at the scene before me, thanking the now chipmunk-faced hobbit as I picked up some pots and took them to the sink. I also brought the second cake for Erard to the pantry, placing it on a plate with a large bowl on top to keep in the moisture. The next half hour whirled by as we washed everything up, Bilbo insisting that I only dried up to not soak my splint whilst in exchange I made him agree to leave some cake for tomorrow.
Laughing at whatever was said, Bilbo disappeared off to his wine cellar, and I quickly took this opportunity to interrogate Kay about earlier as I beckoned her towards me.
“What’s going on? Are you ok?” I whispered.
“Yea course, I’m doing fine. It’s just…” She trailed off, before silently signalling me to follow her. I did so, following behind as she led me from the kitchen through the parlour to the front entrance. “You haven’t noticed anything strange appear in your room, have you?” Bilbo’s whistling echoed through the house as she led me deeper into the oak hall. I shook my head in reply, saying that I hadn’t been in my room all day.
Bilbo had decided that, because we were supposedly staying a while, he would give us both our own privacy by lending me the guest bedroom we stayed in the first night and turning the spare room into guest bedroom No.2 for Kay, who was leading me there right now.
Opening the door, she waited for me to follow through before closing it. Leading me over to a chest, she hauled the wooden lid open and pointed inside. I leant over, only to see something I thought impossible. I looked at Kay with wide eyes, before reaching in and hauling it out onto the floor between us. We both stared incredulously until I spoke.
“Well, that’s not supposed to be here.”

Hi!! I am so sorry I still haven't read the story with tiny lizard Vastra. I am still very much planning to and hoping I will be in the right mindset soon (haven't been reading much at all lately somehow). So I feel kinda bad sending you questions from another ask game when I haven't really followed up on the last one. I hope it's okay anyway?
So IF you feel like it, would you answer these, please?
🍛 Have any comments, tags or reactions to one of your fics every made you laugh or cry or both?
🍡 Which of your fics was the most emotionally difficult to write?
🍘 Is there a fic or idea for a fic that you've abandoned?
Heya! No worries, I completely understand that. I'm the same with both writing and reading XD
🍛Have any comments, tags or reactions to one of your fics ever made you laugh or cry or both?
I unfortunately don't really get many comments, but I treasure each nice one I get. I have laughed at a good few, don't think I've cried at one (yet).
Hint hint. Comment and make me cry, people.
🍡Which of your fics was the most emotionally difficult to write?
Phew, my Songs of Love and Death fic has some TOUGH stuff to get through. Might give the cake to chapter uhhh... 100 of that fic. There are a number of hard ones, but with that one I just sobbed the entire time... 😂
🍘 Is there a fic or idea for a fic that you've abandoned?
Yeaaah, a bunch. Doctor Who LOTR-verse because it's sooo big and I don't think I ever actually will write such a long project. A Halloween fic for some reason, even though it was a quite fun setup. I know I abandoned a storyline in Songs of Love and Death for Jenny in favour of a a lot less traumatising one... It was teased a bit, but Jenny basically runs away before *that* can happen. I have multiple Kyalin prompts, but I've abandoned writing them, at least for the time being. I kinda abandoned the Unsent Letters after Kate going undercover... Oops
Most of the stuff I have lying around is Prompts I'll write eventually. XD
Thank you so much for your ask, they're always great fun!!

It was a warm day in June. The sun was shining brightly. It was the last day of school. Then, I’d be done for good (unless I went to college). my classes seem to take forever. Then it’s graduation time. My mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, and younger sister are in the front row. My friend, Katherina maze, is called first. Then Fiona kettle, Mazza grave, and Anthony Brass. Then, my name, Timpani Ozona, is called. My family is cheering louder than ever before. In fact, my 4th grader sister, flute, even got her cheerleading squad to do a cheer for me! I was smiling wider than ever. I get to study to be a doctor, my dream job. I was excited, but might have gotten a bit carried away when I did a front flip in front of the audience. I go back to my spot, feeling awesome.” After everyone was called, me and my friends walked home. ‘How lucky!’ Kate exclaims. Her twin sister, Jane, replies in a know-it-all voice, “it takes skill, not luck.” Then she turns to me and congratulates me. When I get home, I get no break. We went out to Zina’s grill, my favorite. Then we went to get cake, where I bump into my friend celine. She congratulated me then says “tell me everything you learn, alright?” “I’ll try,” I reply. “I have to leave on august 1st. See you!” When we return home, I pack for college. It is in Madica, Cleveland. I’ll have to go live there. ✨S U D D E N L Y✨, my best friend hope pops up out of nowhere. “Agh! You scared me!” “We can be roommates!” She says excitedly. “Yes!” I say. The rest of the days go by in a blur. However, I can remember something late said. My old boyfriend, Dane, totally dumped me. I was sad for a while. Kate told me. “If you get an awesome boyfriend tell me!!!” Hope pipes up. Her little sister piper is there. She and my sis are BFFS. Three days later, I’m speechless. “Wow” I say, taking in all of Cleveland university of tequila. A guide shows us around. It’s amazing. I hear hope suddenly ask if we can be roommates. “You’ll have to talk to ms. Paleo.” He paused for a moment. “Do you have your books?” “Yes!” “Good. Your classroom is over here.” He says, pointing to a room marked ‘275’ I find two empty desks. We sit down. “Okay class, open to page 52 in the human body: anatomy and workings.” The days go by, and I learn a lot…
It is late august. I am twenty-three years old, and I still keep a diary. I don’t know why. Today this morning I went for a walk, but something told me to bring my first aid kit. I brought a fold up stretcher (are injuries really that severe today???) and stuff to set a broken bone (I’m a total weirdo). I had been strolling happily for five minutes when I heard something interesting. I saw two TOD (tribe of darkness) boys pestering- no, threatening another. They were slowly inching closer so he’d fall off. I caught one word tho: “you’re so scared you belong on the human side haha” they laugh. Why are they laughing, I wondered, why are they pushing someone off Cliff Cleveland, which is 150,000 meters tall. I set up my portable elevator (tons of technology, right? It’s the year of 2109. I climb down it, but it’s too late. The sound of somebody falling echoes through the canyon. He took quite a fall. I pull out the stretcher, and go somewhere where my supplies are. I’m thought learning learning how to treat TOD people was completely worthless, but it paid off BIG TIME. thirty minutes or so later, while I’m fixing myself a cup of tea, I hear a noise. I quickly head back to the room. He looks confused. I hadn’t really thought about what I’d do once he woke up. He starts squirming. He’s obviously trying to get out. He needs to stay 25 more minutes. I was warned about this. I also took psychology (I was a very lucky girl. Not many girls went to college. I had to get 100% on every assignment and had to do 15 sheets of extra credit every night. I had to work very hard.) I also learned that TOD people need to stay in bed for an hour. There were still twenty three minutes left.

Fake review for a non-existent fic:
I'm overjoyed that you wrote a Kate Stewart fic. Can't believe River did that - no wait, I can totally believe River did that! And Martha just watched, giggling... Too naughty!
@pers-books aha, well, thank you, even if it was this bit of total crack, while I was on the cake fic train... ;-p
Martha gave up on trying to wade her way through uncooked ginger cake, and instead leant back against the lab, and laughed helplessly. "I thought it was only the Master that did this kind of thing!"
"Oh, he tried it with you as well, did he?" RIver shrugged, as best as one could while chained to the naked head of UNIT and covered in cake. "I  thought, seeing as the Doctor seems to like it - why not give it a whirl myself?"
Kate clung to Martha's red jacket as the only shred of dignity left to her. "When we get out of here, I may have to arrest you."
"I'll enjoy seeing you try," said River. "If it is any consolation, this trap was meant for the Doctor." She grinned, even if Kate couldn't see it. "Can't honestly say I'm sorry though..."
