Hi!! Ik your probably stressed bc ur really active XD but I hope you drink some water and get some rest. When you find the time to write could I request a flippy/flipqy x reader Christmas head cannons?
Also if your doing the anon thing could I be -🌹 anon ?
Thats super sweet of you, anon! I hope that you’re getting a bunch of water and rest too! Sorry this came in so late, I started writing but didn’t finish. However I did give myself the deadline of Christmas which helped me actually finish this (finishing things on the deadline gang) anyway, I hope you like it!
warnings: mentions of death, literally nothing else just me imagining Fliqpy being like a lethal house cat-
Flippy
🧸I like to think Christmas is like a sense of nostalgia for Flippy.
🧸Like he’s done it his entire life, so it brings him back to his childhood.
🧸Flippy defo decorates, but not in the overboard, as soon as thanksgiving ends, everything’s lit up kind of way.
🧸More of a chill decorator. Doesn’t go all out but theirs definitely decoration.
🧸However if your one of those big decorators he will definitely help out with some things. Also he won’t let you go on the roof unless your experienced. Even then he’s like hovering below you.
🌹”Babe I’m not gonna fall, you don’t have to follow me wherever I go with that pillow.”
🧸”But I don’t want you to get hurt :(“
🧸I feel like he knows how to make REALLY good hot cocoa
🧸Like, tastes like it’s straight from heaven.
🧸He makes amazing cookies too.
🧸Also crochets cute little Christmas sweaters.
🧸Even makes matching ones.
🧸Flip definitely puts lots of thought into gifts.
🧸Like he will ask everyone you know just to gauge the best thing to get for you.
🧸His wrapping looks really good!….. if you don’t look at the bottom-
🧸Is open to trying new traditions. Like if you have a bit more spice added to your Christmas traditions then he’ll try them out too!
🧸Has like really obscure but also really sweet Christmas movies.
🧸Also old ones, like the stop motion Rudolf the reigndeer.
🧸Just please don’t let him watch nightmare before Christmas, or at least avoid the one scene where the military starts shooting down Jack. That will not be a good time for either of you, especially not poor Flips.:(
🧸All in all, very warm n cuddly being w/ Flippy on Christmas.
Fliqpy
🔪Now this little shit-
🔪Idk where that was going I just wanted to call Fliqpy a little shit.
🔪Anyways he’s not used to Christmas.
🔪Would 100% use the lights to strangle someone-
🔪Though he’s really good to have around if you wanna chop your own tree.
🔪The first Christmas he spends with you I don’t imagine him really getting you anything, and also getting flustered when you give him a gift.
🔪Afterwords he starts putting a bit more effort into this whole Christmas thing.
🔪Either a really shitty gift giver or a really great gift giver. No inbetween
🔪Will fall asleep during Christmas movies.
🔪Unless maybe it doubles as a horror movie. Like idk Black Christmas or smth(I’ve never watched Black Christmas so don’t quote me on that but I really want to but I don’t want my mum to walk in and be like ‘WTF ARE YOU WATCHING!?’ Anyways back on track)
🔪Flippys not used to the domestic vibe of Christmas
🔪However if you also believe in Krampus he might be a liiittttleee bit more into it(long live Krampus)
🔪I imagine he really likes hot cocoa but won’t admit it.
🔪Also thinks Santa’s a creep
🔪”So, let me get this straight. You celebrate a dude BREAKING INTO YOUR HOUSE??”
🌹”…. He gives us gifts-“
🔪Really good at wrapping things to make them look like something they’re not. Like you think you’re opening a doll but it’s actually a pocket knife :)

Uh uh uh uh team stan + craig and tweek with a reader who plays a lot of video games?? video games on the mind?? pro-gamer perhaps??? Idk—
this was made up on the spot so apologies if it doesn’t make sense or smth
i am not a gamer so i hope this is good
MAIN 4 + CRAIG + TWEEK WITH A GAMER S/O!
[ gender neutral ]
>> reblogs appreciated!
- kyle gets super competitive while gaming.
- he thinks of it as a way to prove his intelligence.
- sweats SO HARD, gripping the controller like an animal.
- he loses, and when he does, he’s like “oh it’s fine. like, i wasn’t really trying that hard.”
- he’d rather just watch you game.
- if you’re forgetting to eat, he’ll unplug the wifi and force you to take a shower, eat, and rest your eyes from the game.
- stan doesn’t really take the video games seriously.
- he’d rather play adventure games rather than competitive ones.
- doesn’t really force you to get off the game, he just reminds you to eat and drink water.
- he’ll bring you a bowl of snacks and will open the curtains if the room is super dark.
- likes to listen to you explain the lore of your favorite games, but he gets confused easily so you’ll have to explain a ton of terms to him.
- kenny likes to come over to your house and play mario kart with you, since he doesn’t really have any opportunities to at his own house.
- will literally spoon-feed you if you’re distracted by your game 😭😭 best bf ever
- misses the bus so he can walk to school with you while you explain everything about the games, and he’ll just shut up and listen.
- draws you little drawings on sticky notes of your favorite characters and asks if he can come over and watch you play AUGHHH i’m getting carried away..
- cartman doesn’t really understand how you can only think about games. like- don’t you wanna go outside? touch grass? /lh
- literally drags you off the couch so you guys can go get food and hang out- not in front of a screen.
- “y/nnnn come ennnnn!!!”
- forces his mom to make you food so you don’t starve.
- acts like you’re super immature if you offer him to play LMAO he’s like “no, actually, y/n, i have better things to do.”
- doesn’t really understand why you care so much about the lore- they’re just characters?? what’s so cool about them??
- craig loves video games!
- he likes first person shooters the best, but will play adventure games if you ask him. he just gets super bored when he’s not killing zombies!
- doesn’t really care for the lore, but he’s not opposed to hearing about it, he might give his opinions on characters.
- sits in the dark with you and plays, complete silence except from the console.
- makes you take breaks with him to get food and drinks, he has great self control.
- tweek gets super nervous when playing games, ESPECIALLY shooting or horror games.
- doesn’t really watch you play, cause he’d be screaming and shaking the entire time.
- the only games he’d really play are mobile games, like neko atsume and cookie run. you could try to get him to play minecraft, but he gets super anxious when it turns night.
- panics when you go a while without eating or drinking water, you have to eat or he won’t calm down.
- likes it when you talk about the characters, but not the bad stuff that happened to them.

More rambling about Eddie? 🤲🏻
Okay I got you 🙏
I’m probably going to be adding onto this random throughout the day so sorry if it takes forever
Some of these are like headcanons I’ve seen in tiktok but no one has elaborated on them so here is my elaborating on it bc it I want it I’m gonna have to do it myself 😢😢😢
Ok he is very so much the type to shove his finger in your nose and then try to shove it in your mouth
Like why is he so dirty? We don’t know
And literally plot a Wet Willy for a whole entire five minutes, just sucking his pointer finger to make sure it’s wet before he comes up behind you while you’re doing your hair and shoving his finger in your ear and then act like it’s wrong for you to be grossed out by it
And he would act like suck a toddler
“Watch me watch me. Stop doing that. Look at me!” And then he would chug a whole beer and burp out his ABCs
And he’s so the type that you have to force to drink water (I hate those ppl I’m so sorry but plz stop drinking your 8th soda and just take one sip of water) because all he drinks is beer and Dr Pepper and he’s like “water has no flavor??”
No and he’s so dirty
Like he will just fart so loud and continue on like nothing happened while you’re there gasping for air and trying to breath through the green fog and he’s like “stop being dramatic 😒” and force out another fart just to fan it towards you
We’ve only been talking about sweet/horny Eddie so I’m happy we’ve gotten it out of the way how he really would be
He has no table matters and eats fast as hell and loud as hell and once he’s done he’s like “are you gonna eat that?” When you’re mid bite
And he would have such a bad habit of leaving the door open when he was peeing and then you both make eye contact like 🧍♀️🧍♂️
And you would be like “I’m going to change” or smth and then five minutes later he would barge in the door like he didn’t know
And his favorite form of affection to give you? Not a kiss or a hug- it’s actually a noogie or a bite :)
And he’s so the type to literally just sit there with his hand down his pants while you are watching a movie or smth and when he sees that you are giving him a dirty look he’s like “what? Like you don’t y’okay with your pubes 😂😒”
“I dont. Go wash your hands before you touch me.”
And when he leans in for a kiss right before your lips touch he blows a burp in your face
How sweet
Or he’ll just blow one in your face and walk away like “you just got pranked”
And he will push you over and almost (or will just go for it) and push you off of the bed just so he can get comfortable
And he would rough house with you like you were his brother or smth 😭
Like yank you up and body slam you onto the bed and he’d laugh at all your attempts to punch him
And then you’d act like he actually hurts you and he’d like “okay, let me see shithead. I didn’t want to actually hurt you. Let me see it.” And then you choke slam him on the bed
And everytime you try to take a photo of him he flips you off or does the devil horns
And every time you say I love you he can’t just say it back normally he’s like “whatever. I love you too asshole.”
He definitely wakes you up at like 2am and he’s like “get proper clothes on. We’re going to McDonald’s.“
And he will complete tune you out while he plays guitar
Especially if he is learning something new. You could literally be screaming and he turns back to you like “did you hear something?”
And this man is such a himbo like idk
Crop tops 24/7 but he never wears them outside of the comfort of his own home
But everytime your there he’s always in a crop top and just boxers or maybe pajama pants, probably shoving a bowl of cereal in his face
He’s also probably one of those those people who drinks the cereal milk out of the bowl and his a milk mustache and doesn’t even bother to wipe it
And he drinks milk and OJ out of the carton and when he sees that dirty look on your face he pulls it away, out of breath like “oh did you want some?”
And this man can dress like such a whore in the summer
Shorts with flannels completely unbuttons, tattoos on display while he manspreads… 😕😓😓
And he brings you along anytime he gets a new tattoo
And it’s like from one of his uncles friends in a shady ass place but they turn out how he wants them so he doesn’t mind
And sometimes he really is soft and cute
Pulling your head onto his lap and playing with your hair, draping a blanket over you and letting you fall asleep in his lap
Coming over to his trailer after work and you’re all tired and he’s like “😕 baby C’mere, let me get you In bed.”
He ALWAYYYSSS smells like weed
Like weed and cigarettes is his signature scent
And I feel like he gets comfortable at your house quick, like with your parents and stuff
He’s always bringing you random things like a cat
Like he will come back in from smoking a cigarette and he will be like “here. Take these.” And it��s like a big ass rock and some bird feathers
And he makes you take walks into the woods just so he can go get rocks from the creek
Even at night like he will get a big ass flashlight and vodka your hand the whole way but he’s still like “are you really that scared, shithead?”
And he will get so excited everytime he sees you at corroded coffin gigs he get so excited and almost fucks up playing but he gives you one of those close mouthed smiles with his eyebrows all high
Even though you come to every single gig
And he’s always smearing eyeliner on his waterline and then when he pokes his eye he screams for at least ten minutes
Always kissing your neck and loves to nibble at your ears 🫶
And he likes to slip his hand up your shirts when you cuddle so he can rub at your hip or belly 😢
Gets so dramatic when you have to leave in the morning and will grab the handcuffs from the night before 👀 and handcuff his wrist to yours
He will lick over your face instead of giving you a kiss like you thought
And stuff like that will result in a “I hate you” and he’s like “no”
“Yes”
“No”
“You love me”
“No”
“You love me so much it hurts”
He can actually sing really well but every time he notices that you are listening when he’s playing a little song and he’s like “get out of my room stop trying to embarrass me”
“Nooo, you sounded good baby”
“Shut up shithead”
And he calls himself daddy to you even thought you guys are not into that 😭
Like he’s sitting on the couch and smoking a cigarette and you break a nail or start bleeding and he just holds the cigarette in his mouth “let daddy see it”
He lets his sweatpants fall low on his hips when he’s walking around shirtless and does not care to pull them up 😢
I have nothing else to say

when reader is sick hc's
finally posting writing here so true
n e ways okay so i’m brainrotting about the genshin charas taking care of their s/o’s when they’re sick 🥺 and now i'm feeling sick, sigh
ohm and sulien ambros belong to @teyvattherapist! they're such good chara's, i know i'm writing them here but i deffo recommend reading up on them
okay here u go, have some hc's that are kinda sorta long and by that i mean 2.5k- i haven't proofread this bc it's 4am and im going to BED but if i write for any other chara's i'll post a second part <3 mwah
tags: gn!reader, diluc x reader, kaeya x reader, jean x reader, lisa x reader, albedo x reader, dainsleif x reader, tartaglia x reader, ohm ambros x reader, sulien ambros x reader, soft bean hours
diluc
is not working or traveling when his partner is sick
absolutely makes them soup and hot tea and drinks
he’s trying to make them food but he’s not the best cook so he’s asking adelinde for help
absolutely asks jean, barbara, and ohm for help while his partner is sleeping but he’s so awkward LMAO
was absolutely frantic the first day he found out his partner was sick tho, he made them come over to the winery so they could sleep there and he can take care of them <3
absolutely lied about what room was his so they slept in his bed
“hmm this guest room is so furnished diluc are all your rooms like this” and no, no they are not, this room is his, bestie
diluc slept on a sofa in his bedroom and did work on the table that was supposed to be for flowers. kinda stressed over abyss order locations but was more worried ab his partner being okay so he was distracted
he just put the flowers on his nightstand for his partner to see when they woke up <3
gives his partner forehead kisses because they won’t let him kiss them on the lips and he gives them the gentlest cheek kisses while they sleep
also gives his partner his clothes to wear <3
cuddles them and reads to them when they’re awake and TEMPLE KISSES OH MY GOD
kaeya comes over because he’s worried his brother and his brother’s s/o haven’t been seen in a little while
n e way, diluc gets sick after his partner gets better and they nursed each other back to health
kaeya
like diluc, he took off work so he could take care of his s/o i,mediately after he found out they were sick
wouldn’t force them to stay at his place tho, he’d probably let them recover in their own place
but he might make them go to the kof hq or the cathedral just so they can be taken care of by a proper healer
he absolutely soothes their fevers and stuff w cryo and also the man can heal himself w his elem skill ofc he can fix someone if he tries hard enough <3
he gives kisses no matter how much his partner says not to but he’ll also give them butterfly kisses so it’s soft moments too~ sigh, ur too cute alberich
asks ohm and barbara and albedo and lisa for potions and such to help his partner feel better but he’s really lowkey so he doesn’t seem SUPER worried
he just hates seeing his partner not feeling so well </3
refreshes his partner’s vase of flowers at their bedside every day
brings home work so he can watch over his partner. he can’t cook super well either so he asks for help and brings stuff home from good hunter too
jean was okay to let kaeya off of work and diluc would never admit it (man practically swore everyone to secrecy smh) but he helped take up some of kaeya’s duties in his stead
and kae, the alcoholic, didn’t even drink while his partner was sick bc he was lowkey worried they would need his help w smth and he didn’t want to be drunk just in case <3
many cuddles despite protests of getting him sick <3
jean
absolutely uses her healer skills to make her partner feel better
panicked when they were still sick and thought it was her fault </3 she asked barbara and ohm for help and they just told jean to relax a bit bc her partner was sick and it wasn’t going to be a quick fix
wanted to take off work but didn’t, so she just brought her work with her
kaeya and ohm very kindly took up her other duties where she had to leave so she could be w her partner
her partner is staying in the kof hq where they get access to ohm and barbara comes to visit <3 but also so that jean can sleep comfortably enough close by bc you cannot tell me this woman does not sometimes sleep in her office or the library and barely makes it to the kof dormitories sometimes
she’s so worried the entire time, she’s probably got a few gray hairs and a new frown line smh
she has clothes that aren’t her work clothes???? it’s so foreign seeing her in stuff like pajamas. you didn’t even know jean owned pajamas
jean sets them up in her bed at home (yeah she has a place outside of the kof hq??? it’s surprising) but it’s a big bed so they can rest and she’ll have the lamp on her side on while she sits up and does work
absolutely dotes on them. she’s good at making foods that make them feel better, she’s just a good healer that way <3
albedo, klee, venti, kaeya, lisa, and ohm all come over to check on jean and co and make sure everyone is doing okay <3 lots of food brought
if jean was asked to sing to her partner normally, she probably wouldn’t bc she’d probably get embarrassed but i think she probably sounds v good and venti would give her his lyre to try out a musical instrument too. but also she’d read to her partner and they’d probably fall asleep together uwu
lisa
works part time hours at the library so she can go visit her s/o
probably asks them to stay at the kof hq for easier access to medical assistance and plus she’s almost always there
“cutie” but worried and very 🥺 (pleading emoji)
makes soup and potions and reads to her partner until they fall asleep
also super playful omg she’s still got a smile on and is full of affection while she walks her fingers up her partner’s arm to their face so she can cup their cheek
she’ll make her partner laugh and smile and blush even when they’re sick, but she makes them laugh until they cough sometimes and immediately feels so bad
jean, barbara, kaeya, albedo and ohm all come to visit with different foods and soups and medicines and such
klee comes knocking and gives lisa some good fisherman’s toast and asks lisa’s s/o if they want to hug dodoco b/c that always makes klee feel better
purple roses galore, lisa has them in her partner’s room and they’ve got a potion to make the. uh. sniffer? to make the sniffer feel better. don’t ask me how, idk but she would find a way to make them physically feel better with flowers
reads to her partner ofc, and she tells them stories ab her own life and time at sumeru sans the crazies
worried looks when her s/o is sleeping but also the softest smiles when they wake up pls-
albedo
cutest lil frown on his face when he finds out his partner is sick
immediately they are taken home and he’s testing to confirm what’s wrong w them and what he can do to speed up their recovery
he’s more distracted than usual at work but he’s coming over to your place all the time w what paperwork he can do
also sketches his partner while they don’t know. he’s got lots of beautiful candids of his partner sleeping, looking out the window, falling asleep, reading, even drinking water. he’s made the most mundane things look captivating
kaeya and ohm come to check on albedo when he doesn’t show up for work after a few days and it’s bc he’s taking care of his s/o with food and soup and alchemical potions and shit. and when kae and ohm come in, they find his partner opening the door wrapped in a blanket while albedo is asleep cuddling the pillow they left bc he stayed up the night before making soup and reading to them
klee has camped out on his partner’s couch, she helps w the cooking too~ she absolutely lets them hug dodoco and gives them a treasure to feel better too LOL
many kisses from klee and albedo, and they also go out to get treats for albedo’s partner too
domestic albedo cooking in his partner’s kitchen and for once it isn’t some alchemical potion that he might blow up the stove with
tartaglia
takes off work entirely but BOY OH BOY is he stir crazy smh
brings his partner to his apartment to rest <3
he’s so worried ab his s/o that he makes all the sick ppl food the first day, orders from wanmin restaurant when his partner wants smth different, and also gets toys and such to entertain them otherwise
also reads to his partner but, again, he gets stir crazy after a while
absolutely does workouts and katas in the living room and phew shirtless tartaglia working out? gets the heart rate up for sure ahem
rushes to his partner tho omg- need soup? water? a trip to the bathroom? another blanket? he goes to them the MOMENT he hears them moving around. absolutely dotes on them <3
his family knows ab his partner and he’s probably written letters ab them being sick~ his family sent snezhnayan herbs and flowers and medicines and such
zhongli comes around because he wants sugar daddy!tartaglia with tea and medicine from bubu pharmacy. hu tao is in tow with well wishes and a “hope i don’t find you at work!” which is. a little worrying because aren’t you just a little sick-
many kisses from tartaglia because he is Needy and he’ll absolutely get sick from cuddling his partner while they sleep
also he’ll probably just like. envelop his partner while they sleep. they’re all cuddled into him and he’s actually so warm it’s nice bc they’re cold w a fever and he’s living for comforting them
he’s so worried tho, he’s got the frowny face and he’s so adorable but he just doesn’t want his partner to feel sick
dainsleif
the man camps in ruins, he’s going to his partner’s house smh
he doesn’t go into the church either LOL so expect him in his partner’s home making dinner and doing their grocery shopping thanks
he would get ohm and barbara to come over tho <3 “fix them please” but also “how can i fix them”
is so dead set on making sure his partner takes their medicine at the right times, he’s so soft for them and them alone
cooks soup and old recipes he barely remembers from khaenri’ah. he doesn’t really get sick, so he doesn’t remember these ones too clearly. deffo brings back old memories he’d long forgotten
reads to his partner and tells them old stories of how the world used to be, his travels, gives them the gossip on a certain khaenri’ahn but doesn’t give away the name
ohm comes over with medicine and lollipops bc dain is so unlikely to go to the cathedral to get barbara smh
but also dain, so self-sufficient, is unlikely to want to ask for help, so ohm just goes to help anyway
dain with the old khaenri’ahn lullabies and tucking his partner into his arms and singing quietly while he holds them and rocks them to sleep
dain is immortal, he’s giving his partner kisses bc “i’m immortal, ofc i won’t get sick”
he got sick
but his s/o nursed him back to health and then there were smooches the end
ohm ambros
the doctor with his ill lover oh my god
he’s frowny, he’s taking care of his partner at his home in springvale and his home clinic is open to everyone else. but everyone knows his partner is the first priority LOL
kaeya and albedo come over to see if ohm is okay or if his house needs to be checked up on. they’re wondering if he went on a last-minute expedition to sumeru and didnt tell them
diluc comes over too, he’s just checking up on his best friend but he’s also stealing a cherry lollipop smh. he heard from kae that ohm’s partner is sick tho, so he brings some soup and good food over from adelinde. he also brings some of his own specialty food tho, the once upon a time in mondstadt <3
sulien sending letters to his big brother to see if his brother’s s/o is okay
ohm is also just super protective of his partner, there are not many people who come into his life who he loves and lets in in the first place. he’s absolutely trying to heal them with his own vitality, so their recovery is much shorter than initially expected
barbara also comes over w jean to check up on ohm and co, complete w a goody basket of soup, a teddy bear, flowers, and books
ohm reading to his partner <3 he’s got such a soothing voice even if his accent is wack LMAO. he’s reading stories and even his paperwork because just his presence is comforting
he puts his hands on his partner’s forehead to soothe the fever goodbye
ohm will not sing for his s/o simply bc he doesn’t think he sounds v good. and he probably doesn’t but it would be so cute to hear him try and please ohm? 🥺
n e way i want smooches idc if i’m sick KISS ME OHM AMBROS
sulien ambros
when he finds out his partner is sick, the man blinks like twice and then suggests so calmly that they go to his apartment in liyue
man does not sleep normally, he’s just going to nurse his partner back to health and read during their recovery. fruit tart can cover his duties for him <3
sulien cooks for his partner tho, he’s making soup and stuff and getting medicine from bubu’s pharmacy. he’s also picking up books on the way home but some of them are to be read to his partner so it’s okay-
like tartaglia, sulien works out while his partner rests and goes to them if he hears them moving around. he’s reading to his partner and not so frowny, but the slightest furrow of this man’s brow is already such a big expression of his concern <3
sends letters to ohm asking for advice ab how to help his partner feel better. ohm just sends a letter back with “i’m coming” and shows up within the day LMAO
reads to his partner, and the monotony of his voice is soothing and lulls them to sleep. he just looks at them affectionately (well affectionate for him) and presses a kiss to their forehead before finishing the story on his own and in his head
tartagalicious comes over and brings food, flowers and a teddy bear with some of sandrone’s paperwork but he sends a smile to sulien’s partner with some well wishes
scara comes over too just to visit and check to see where sandrone is, but scara is a grumpy bean so he just says “feel better” all brooding and like it’s a command to one of the fatui subordinates LOL
sulien like ohm uses his cold hands to soothe his partner’s fever and also gives them forehead kisses <3
Edit: a link to part 2

Idk if this is a good prompt but im always a sucker for clothes swap fluff so 👉👈 smth with grillby wearing sans’ jacket maybe?
This is so freaking cute. I might have to write like, three alternate versions of this.
Once again, I think I strayed a bit from expectation writing this one. Also, it’s entirely off-season. And I think I got a bit sloppy at the end, so I apologize for that. If you can’t tell, I don’t think very highly of my own writing. In any case, here’s the one-shot that nearly turned into multiple chapters!
Grillby Looks Good In Blue
Word count: 4961
Summary: When it’s revealed that Grillby doesn’t have a Halloween costume, Frisk comes up with a great idea.
Grillby had never been particularly festive. Even after opening his new bar on the surface, the ‘holiday spirit’ people talked about continued to elude him. The older members of his family didn’t celebrate many holidays, and what celebrations they did have were never more than another family gathering. He enjoyed them, of course. Any opportunity to see his brothers and niece was a welcome one! But he’d never decorated his bar or hosted any sort of seasonally themed party. So, when he learned about the human holiday of ‘Halloween’, he didn’t plan to come up with a costume.
(He planned to close early and hand out candy, of course. He had a soft spot for children.)
The night before Halloween, Grillby’s bar was lively with excited monsters and humans alike. The anticipation for the big night was palpable as people chattered among themselves, talking about their costumes, the best places to get candy, and parties that were going to be held. The sun had only just started to set when the bell above the door rang, a familiar family of monsters entering with a single human child.
“Welcome back,” Grillby greeted with a small smile. The whole gang was there- Toriel, Frisk, Alphys, Undyne, Papyrus, Sans… even Asgore was there. Sans and Frisk made a beeline for the bar while the rest of the group discussed seating arrangements. Grillby started pouring a glass of apple juice for Frisk automatically, placing it in front of them as the child struggled up onto a barstool. “It’s good to see you all again. What’s the occasion?”
Sans shrugged and hopped up into his usual seat. “Well, we’re gonna have a little All Hallows Eve Eve party while we put the finishing touches on everyone’s costumes. Thought that since we’re all here, it’d be nice to go out to eat together. It was mostly Frisk’s idea.”
Grillby chuckled. “Well, I think it was an excellent idea. Now, what can I get the two of you started with?”
The night wore on with plenty of food, drinks, and laughter as everyone caught up with each other. Frisk and Sans went back to sit with the others during dinner, but when it was time for dessert, Frisk was right back up at the bar to talk with Grillby. They were excited to tell him about their costume. “Guess what I’m going as for Halloween!” they demanded, bouncing on their stool.
Grillby set a piece of cake in front of Frisk as he carefully monitored the stool’s stability. “I don’t know, what?”
“Nooooo,” Frisk whined, “That’s not how it works! You have to guess!”
“Alright, alright.” He pretended to think for a moment, tapping his chin. “You’re going to be… adorable,” he teased, ruffling their hair.
Frisk laughed, pushing his hand away. “No, I’m not! I’m going to be scary!”
Grillby shook his head. “Forgive me for being unable to imagine that. What scary thing are you going as, then?”
Frisk was unable to contain their excitement any longer, jumping up on the stool. “I’m going to be a zombie!” they yelled. As they did, the stool teetered beneath them.
Ding! You’re blue now!
Grillby had reached out and grabbed Frisk by the shoulders at the same time Sans turned them blue and levitated them, the unbalanced stool the child was sitting on hitting the floor. Sans walked up to the bar and righted the stool, chuckling as he found a seat of his own. “Careful, kid. Don’t want you partying too hard now.”
Frisk gave both of them a sheepish grin as they were set back on their stool, looking up at Grillby. “Sorry. Anyway, as I was saying, I’m going to be a zombie for Halloween. It was Sans’s idea!” They shoveled a big bite of chocolate cake in their mouth as they looked at the skeleton.
“Yeah,” Sans said with a shrug. “I mean, a supernatural being that keeps coming back to life no matter how many times you’ve killed it? It seems appropriate.”
Grillby wasn’t sure what Sans meant by that, but at that point, he was used to it enough to not bother asking. He turned to Frisk and poured them a glass of milk to go with their dessert. “Well, make sure Sans sends me a picture. I’m sure it will look great.”
Frisk nodded eagerly, taking the glass of milk and drinking half of it in one go. Grillby offered them a napkin before they could wipe their mouth on their sleeve. Frisk took it, scrubbing at their face and smiling up at him. “So,” they asked, “What’s your Halloween costume gonna be?”
“Oh, I’m not really doing anything for Halloween,” Grillby responded as he moved to wipe some crumbs from his bar. “I will be handing out candy, though, if you’d like to stop by.”
“You don’t have a costume?!” Apparently, in Frisk’s mind, this was a horrible tragedy. “But everyone put a costume together! Even Sans made one!”
Papyrus, overhearing this, looked up from where he’d been enjoying a plate of pasta with chocolate sauce. “Wait, Sans, you actually made a costume?! I thought you said you were just going to buy one!”
Sans shrugged. “Yeah, well, everyone else was making their own. Besides, the costume I came up with is a piece of art. You can’t get that at a store.”
Frisk didn’t look impressed. “Sans, your costume is literally a shirt with the word ‘life’ written on it and a bowl of lemon drops.”
“Well, I didn’t really have much to work with. You know what they say- when life gives you lemons…”
Papyrus groaned. “SANS THAT DOESN’T COUNT AS A COSTUME AT ALL!”
Grillby chuckled from behind the bar, fond. “I think it sounds very you, Sans.”
Sans grinned up at him. “Heh, at least someone appreciates my talents. Anyway, Grillbz, the kid is right. It’s our first Halloween on the surface. You gotta do something more than just hand out candy.”
Apparently, everyone was listening at that point, because that was when Alphys stood up. “O-Oh! If, um, if you still n-need a costume, I, uh… w-well I have some material l-leftover from making mine and Undyne’s! I’m sure we can- um- c-come up with some ideas, haha…”
“That sounds like a great idea,” Toriel chimed in. “You should join us for our costume-making party tonight, Grillby. Then you can accompany Frisk with us for trick-or-treating.”
Grillby adjusted his glasses, a bit flustered by all the sudden attention. “I-i wouldn’t want to intrude…”
Undyne laughed, getting up. “Too late, fire dude! If Frisk says you need a costume, then that’s that. Now let’s close this joint and get going already!”
As Undyne and Papyrus began rounding people up and making them go home so Grillby could close the bar, the fire monster chuckled to himself. Maybe, just this once, he could have a little more fun with a holiday.
It felt odd, being in Toriel’s house. Grillby considered the others his friends, but he’d never actually hung out with any of them outside the bar before. Everyone was gathered in the living room, where multiple old bedsheets had been spread on the floor and furniture. The group spread out around the living room as they helped each put finishing touches on their designs with hot glue and paint. “The bedsheets are a clever idea,” Grillby commented lightly as he took a cup of tea from Toriel (he didn’t have the heart to tell her that he usually didn’t drink tea. It was basically just hot flavored water).
The motherly monster smiled, sitting in an armchair and watching the scene in front of her with a fond look in her eye. “Dr. Alphys suggested it. She’s very good at arts and crafts!”
“Speaking of arts and crafts,” Sans interjected from his spot on the couch, “It’s time to figure out what Grillby’s costume is going to be.”
Alphys had a lot of ideas. “Oh! Y-you could go as a gender-bent v-version of Sailor Mars! Or maybe, um, if you c-can burn blue for- for the evening you could go a-a-as Rin Okumura from Blue Exorcist! Oh, I b-bet you could m-make a great Kyoya! Uh, from O-ouran Highschool Host Club?”
...Grillby didn’t understand what she said, but was flattered anyway. Kind of.
Sans decided to step in and rescue Grillby before Alphys put him in cat ears. “While those are all good ideas,” he said thoughtfully, “Maybe we should think of something that we can, y’know, throw together overnight? Plus I’m pretty sure all those characters wear like fancy clothes and stuff. That’s what Grillby wears already. Hardly counts as a costume.”
Papyrus stood up specifically so he could put his hands on his hips. “Well the whole point of a costume is to dress up for the evening! What is Grillby supposed to do? Dress down?”
That gave Frisk an idea. They got up, walking over to Grillby and pulling on his arms to make him stand up. “Come here for a second!” Then, they went and grabbed Sans, pulling him to stand next to Grillby. Frisk took a couple of steps back, rubbing their chin in thought as they inspected the two side-by-side. Apparently, they liked what they saw, because they smiled. “Hey Sans, do you mind if I change your costume a bit?”
“Uhhh, what are we talking about when we say ‘a bit’?” Sans asked, unsure of where Frisk was going with this.
Alphys seemed to catch on, because anyone who has read lots and lots of fanfiction can guess where this is going. “Ohhhh, that’s g-genius, Frisk! But, u-um, Grillby’s a lot taller than Sans.”
Frisk’s smile only widened, the plan coming together in their mind. “Sans’s jacket is big enough! And I’m sure we can find him a white T-shirt that’s big enough!”
The skeleton waved a hand at them, interrupting. “Sans’s jacket is big enough for what?”
Frisk and Alphys shared a mischievous look. Sans looked up at Grillby (who was still confused and clueless) and came to a terrible realization.
He was going to have to tie his shoes for once.
“Do I really have to keep the shirt tucked in?”
“Yes! Grillby always has his shirt tucked in!”
“A-and don’t- don’t slouch. You have to, um, g-get into character!”
“When did this go from a Halloween costume to full-on cosplay?”
Sans tugged at his suspenders as he inspected the completed outfit. Somehow, Frisk and Alphys had managed to find a white button-up, dress pants, and dress shoes to fit Sans. Grillby’s suspenders could be adjusted down to fit Sans, and bowties tended to be one-size-fits-all, so Sans got to wear the real deal in those departments. Finally, Toriel had taken the lenses out of an old pair of reading glasses she didn’t use and set the frames on Sans’s skull (Frisk taped the sides since Sans didn’t have ears).
The skeleton couldn’t help chuckling. “Man, no wonder Grillby is pretty fit. Getting dressed in this stuff is a whole workout.” It didn’t look bad, though. He glanced upstairs, where Papyrus and Toriel had whisked Grillby away for his ‘transformation’. Sans had already managed to get fully dressed, and his usual outfit was way simpler than Grillby’s. What was taking so long?
The others seemingly had the same thought. Undyne crossed her arms, walking to the base of the stairs. “HEY PAPYRUS! WHAT’S THE HOLD UP?!” she yelled through the house.
Papyrus cracked the door to Toriel’s room open for a moment. “JUST BE PATIENT, UNDYNE!”
Toriel pushed the door the rest of the way open, sighing. “Please, both of you, no shouting in the house. We… had a minor issue with finding a T-shirt, is all. Grillby is changing in my bathroom, he’ll be down in a moment.”
Just then, Papyrus spotted Sans, eyesockets widening. “OH MY GOD! Sans, you actually have style for once!”
“Heh, thanks, I guess…” Sans felt nervous, for some reason. What if Grillby thought he looked dumb? What if Grillby got really uncomfortable with this idea? What if he got mad? Maybe it wasn’t a good idea to force him to-
The door to Toriel’s room opened again, a warm light filling the hall. If Sans could have blushed, he would have.
Sans’s shorts were wide enough around the waist to fit Grillby, although they didn’t quite go down to his knees. The old white shirt Toriel had found him was a bit more form-fitting than the ones Sans usually wore, clinging near his waist and the center of his chest. Amusingly, Sans’s slippers were a bit too big on the fire monster, if the way he had to shuffle in them to get them to stay on was any indication. What got Sans, though, was the jacket.
Sans’s hoodie fit Grillby perfectly.
Grillby had shot Papyrus a questioning look when he was handed Sans’s jacket, still unsure about the whole thing. “Will this even fit me?” he asked skeptically. “I’m quite a bit taller than Sans.”
“Well, it’s very big on Sans,” Toriel pointed out. “Just try it on. I’m sure we can go find a cheap blue hoodie in the morning to complete the look if that doesn’t fit.”
Papyrus nodded. “Or if it smells too much like ketchup for you to bear!”
The bartender still wasn’t sure, but it couldn’t hurt to just try it on, right? Blushing a bit under the attention the other two were giving him, he shrugged on the blue jacket. Papyrus was right, it did smell a little like ketchup. But…
As the weight of the fabric settled around his shoulders, something in Grillby relaxed. The fabric that lined the inside of Sans’s jacket was surprisingly soft, and the sleeves were just long enough that if Grillby wanted to, he could pull them over his hands. The fire monster’s face grew hotter, a bright blush spreading across his cheeks. He was wearing Sans’s clothes. He was wearing Sans’s jacket. He wrapped his arms around himself without thinking, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath. When he opened them again, he found that Toriel and Papyrus were both staring at him. He shifted a bit, fiddling with the hoodie strings. “...wh-what? Is something wrong?”
After a long moment, Toriel smiled, raising a hand to her mouth in an attempt to hold back laughter. Papyrus tilted his head, entirely bemused. “Grillby, why did you turn blue? Is it that overwhelming? I told Sans he needed to wash that old thing more often!”
Toriel lost her composure, laughing softly. “That’s not what it means when a fire monster turns blue, Papyrus.”
“W-wait, I’m what-?!” Grillby ran back into Toriel’s bathroom. Sure enough, the blush on his cheeks had turned a vibrant blue, along with some of the flames that made up his hair. “Oh. Oh no.”
“‘Oh no’ what?! I don’t understand! Ms. Toriel, why are you laughing?!” Papyrus frowned, unhappy at being left out of the loop.
Toriel was all too happy to clarify. “Fire monsters blush differently than other monsters. The flames that make up their faces change temperature depending on the emotion. When they’re embarrassed, they may turn red. When flustered, a brighter orange. The most dazzling display, though, is when a fire monster is-”
“You can’t tell Sans!” Grillby suddenly cried out, nearly shouting it. He went back into the bedroom, willing himself to calm down. “Fuck, I can’t let him see me like this…!”
Toriel decided to let the language slide, focusing on calming Grillby down. “It’s alright,” she said soothingly, “We won’t tell him. You should tell him yourself.”
Grillby shook his head. “No, no no no no no. Sans can’t know about this. It’s entirely inappropriate, and it would ruin everything we already have-”
Toriel held up a hand to stop him. She tilted her head a bit, concerned. “Now why would it be inappropriate? You’re adults. If you both consent to a relationship, there’s nothing wrong with that.”
“Don’t phrase it like that,” Grillby groaned. “It’s- I’m a fire elemental and he’s a skeleton. We’re not going to be compatible.”
Toriel frowned at that. “Now that’s an outdated mindset and you know it,” she huffed. “You like him, don’t you? I’m sure even if he didn’t like you that way, you could still be friends after telling him.”
“Like him in what way?!?!” The Great Papyrus interrupted, starting to get irritated that the author seemed to keep forgetting he was there.
Toriel looked at Papyrus, then sighed, smiling a bit as she looked back at Grillby. Grillby groaned again, hanging his head in defeat. “Fire monsters turn blue,” he mumbled, “When they’re in love.”
Papyrus took a moment to process that. Grillby was in love… he’d turned blue when he put Sans’s jacket on… Oh! The pieces clicked in his skull. “HOLY FU-”
“LANGUAGE!”
Grillby took a deep breath as he walked down the stairs, trying to stay calm and, more importantly, stay cold. Sans would probably say I just need to ‘chill out’. Or be ‘cool’, Grillby thought to himself, his awkward smile becoming a bit more genuine in amusement. He stepped into the living room, holding his arms out in a sort of ‘Ta-da!’ motion. Frisk started clapping while Alphys took pictures, both of them far more excited about the outfit change than they should have been.
“Well if it isn’t the ‘hottest’ new fashion trend, Grillby casual.”
Sans caught Grillby’s attention, the fire monster turning to look at him. “Ha, funny, Sans,” is what he said on the outside. On the inside, he was screaming. Stay chill stay chill stay chill stay chill god damn it now that terrible joke is stuck in my head holy shit just stay chill!
“Y-you look nice,” Grillby managed to stammer out. “I never thought I’d see you wear a tie that wasn’t printed on the shirt.”
“I’ll take that as a compliment,” Sans replied with a wink. “So I guess it’s decided then? We’re going as each other for Halloween?”
Grillby nodded, barely trusting himself to speak. “I suppose so…”
Frisk jumped up on the couch. “WHICH MEANS YOU HAVE TO GO TRICK OR TREATING WITH US!!”
The next several minutes were filled with Toriel lecturing Frisk about jumping on furniture and yelling in the house.
The next day, the whole group met at Grillby’s to get ready, taking advantage of the fact that the restaurant had a total of four bathroom stalls. Grillby volunteered to put his costume on last, soul thrumming with anxiety. He was sure that the evening was going to be the hardest evening of his life (oh, the things he put himself through for Frisk’s sake).
Grillby was far from unaware of his feelings for Sans. He’d had a bit of a crush for a long time, and in the time since they’d been released from the Underground, that affection had only grown. There was just something about the skeleton that made him want to sit and talk with him forever. It would never work out, though. Relationships were complicated, and Grillby didn’t want to mess up what he already had. If he made a move and it didn’t work out, it would be hard to go back to just being friends. Needless to say, Sans’s new ability to turn Grillby’s flames blue without even being in the room was a huge problem.
“Hey fire dude, your turn!” Undyne pulled Grillby from his thoughts, thrusting the bartender’s costume into his arms. “Hurry up and get changed! It’s almost time to get going!”
Grillby nodded, a bit overwhelmed all of a sudden. “R-right. I’ll be back in a moment.”
He took his time getting dressed, carefully monitoring his temperature. For the most part, he was fine. He could forget that he was dressed as his favorite skeleton, even be amused by it. There was no problem at all… until he got to the jacket.
Slipping on Sans’s hoodie, Grillby felt his temperature immediately rise. He was never cold, but he could still appreciate that the jacket was comfortably warm. Between the smell and the weight, if he closed his eyes he could almost imagine Sans had his arms around him.
Oh god, there was no way he was going to make it through this night.
Cautiously stepping out of the bathroom stall, Grillby looked in the mirror and confirmed what he already suspected. That bright blue tint had returned to his face. He took a deep breath, willing it away, but some of the flames that formed his hair and cheeks wouldn’t cool off. The traitorous streaks of heat flickered and Grillby felt like he was being mocked.
The door to the bathroom suddenly opened and Grillby panicked, pulling up the hood of the and ducking his head to hide his face. Glancing to the side, he wanted to scream. Of course, it was Sans.
Sans looked worried, dress shoes clicking on the tile floor as he walked over. “You okay, Grillbz? You’ve been in here for a while. I was starting to get worried.”
“I-i’m fine,” Grillby stammered, turning to look at the wall, the counter, anywhere but at Sans. “I’m just nervous. It’s the first time I’ve participated in something like this.”
Sans chuckled, a gentle sound that soothed some of Grillby’s nerves. “C’mon, you can’t mess up Halloween. Just ‘chill’ out and enjoy yourself.”
Sans was right. There wasn’t any reason to be this worked up. So long as he focused on the festivities, Grillby didn’t run any risk of being flustered again. “Alright. I’ll be out in a moment.” He straightened up, looking in the mirror again and sighing in relief. For now, the blush was gone.
Later that evening, the Halloween festivities were in full swing. Monster and human children alike were wandering up and down the streets with their parents, laughing and playing as their buckets and bags slowly filled with sweets. Frisk insisted on dragging as many people as they could up to each door with them, insisting that, “Larger groups of people get more candy!”
Of course, being a pretty big group of monsters, they couldn’t all fit on a doorstep at once. Instead, they all took turns. Two people would go with Frisk at a time, and the rest of them would just wave from the street.
Sans put his hands in his pockets as he watched Grillby and Asgore walk Frisk to the door of the next house, chuckling a bit as the former king stopped to admire the flowerbeds. His gaze drifted to Grillby. He’d been worried that the bartender would feel a little out of place, but he seemed to be enjoying himself, holding Frisk’s hand as the child cheered, “Trick or treat!”
The couple at the door stopped to ask about their costumes like any other house, putting a few pieces of candy in Frisk’s bag. Sans couldn’t hear what was said, but when Grillby explained his costume, whatever the couple said made him laugh. Sans smiled to himself, fond.
Undyne elbowed Sans, arching an eyebrow at him. “Dude, you’re staring again.”
Sans rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. “Yeah, well, he’s being really cute. Besides, anyone could appreciate a guy that hot.”
Undyne groaned. “Okay, but being serious, why don’t you just talk to him already? The guy obviously has a thing for you. Nobody would let you rack up a tab like yours if they didn’t want to cook for you all the time.”
“I know,” Sans admitted, “But he can be kinda shy. I don’t wanna scare him off by making the first move.”
She just rolled her eyes. “If he’s shy, he’s never gonna confess to you. Just go for it, man!”
Sans looked back at Grillby. In the time they’d been talking, the fire monster had picked Frisk up and put them on his shoulders, smiling as Frisk declared which house they should go to next. He was so good with the kid. He let Frisk hang out at the bar after school all the time, and he’d even helped them with their homework once or twice. The bartender was one of the sweetest guys Sans had ever met. How could the skeleton not like him? And Sans had to admit, he was getting a little impatient. “You know what? Fine,” he said, looking back at Undyne. “I’m gonna tell him.”
Undyne looked genuinely surprised. “Really?”
“Yup.”
“Tonight?”
“Right now.”
“Oh my god.” Undyne whipped out her phone, pulling up her camera. “Fucking finally. You have no idea how long I’ve waited for this. Alphys! Alphys, it’s finally happening, come help me film this!”
Sans laughed, pulling his hands out of his pockets to fidget with his suspenders. “Thanks for the enthusiasm, but this is something I kinda want to do alone? Grillby’s a private guy. You’ll make him nervous.”
Undyne groaned. “Fine, but you better tell me how it goes!”
Sans gave her a thumbs-up. “Sure thing, captain.”
“I mean it!” she emphasized, jabbing a finger at his chest. “I want every detail.”
Sans chuckled. “I’ll make sure to ‘burn’ the moment in my memory. Now get out of here, they’re coming back.”
Grillby and Asgore rejoined the group, Grillby handing Frisk off to Toriel. “I believe it’s your turn, You Majesty.”
Toriel smiled a bit. “Now what have I told you about that? It’s just Toriel now.” She turned to the others. “Sans? Would you like to come as well?”
“I’ll c-come!” Alphys quickly interjected. “We sh-should all go! Except Sans and Grillby! G-Grillby just went, and, u-um… Sans, well…”
“I’m too lazy to go all the way up to the door,” Sans finished for her. “I’ll hang back here with Grillby. You all go on ahead.”
Toriel tilted her head, trying to figure out what Sans was planning before understanding hit her. She smiled a bit and nodded. “Alright, you two. Don’t fall too far behind.”
“This won’t take very long,” Sans assured her, waving them off. Frisk lead the way, and pretty soon it was just Sans and Grillby, walking side by side in the cool autumn evening.
Grillby adjusted his glasses, glancing curiously at Sans. “...alright. What is this all about? I can tell you’re plotting something.”
Sans chuckled. “Yeah, you’ve always been able to read me pretty well.” And somehow the bartender was still totally oblivious. “I just wanted to talk with you for a minute. Just you and me.” He stopped walking, looking Grillby up and down. “...y’know, you don’t look half bad in my jacket.”
Oh god. The fear of blushing and tipping Sans off returned at full force, Grillby swallowing hard. “Th-thank you? Um, I think you look nice, too. Dressed up, I mean.”
“Eh, you pull it off better.” Sans shrugged. “You know, you’ve been kinda quiet this evening. You doing okay?”
“I’m fine,” Grillby answered too quickly. He’d honestly been avoiding talking to Sans too much. Sans was far too good at flustering him and making him laugh. “Why do you ask?”
Sans huffed, fond as he tilted his head. “Well, I’ve been thinking. Hanging out with everybody is great and all, but I’d kinda like to spend more time with just you, y’know?” He rubbed the back of his neck, a little nervous. He didn’t want to make Grillby uncomfortable by being too direct, but he couldn’t be too subtle. Otherwise, it would go over the fire monster’s head. He took a deep breath and braced himself. “I was wondering if maybe you’d like to go get breakfast or something sometime?”
Grillby nearly choked. What was Sans trying to say? Surely he wasn’t asking what Grillby wanted him to thought he might be asking. He felt his temperature rise without his permission and reflectively pulled up the hood of the jacket, covering his face with his sleeves. If anything, remembering that he was hiding in Sans’s jacket just made it worse. He tried to say something, but to his dismay, all he could get out was a flustered squeak.
That was about the reaction Sans was expecting. “Grillby? You okay?” Sans asked gently. He stepped closer, trying to move into the bartender’s field of vision.
“F-f-fine…!” Grillby managed. He was dead. He was going to die. This was a disaster.
“Heh, sure,” Sans mumbled, giving him a small smile. “Alright, if you’re gonna be shy about it, let’s try this a different way.” The skeleton reached up and gently took Grillby’s hands in his own, pulling them away. Grillby’s face was burning with beautiful shades of red, orange, and blue, all mixing together. Sans chuckled a bit, putting his hands on the bartender’s shoulders and making him lean over. “Come here, you dork.” He stood up on his toes, pulling the fire monster’s hood down as he did.
The light show when Sans kissed him was spectacular.
Papyrus, who had been watching the whole time, jumped out of the bushes. “OH MY GOD, SANS!” He was shortly followed by Undyne, Alphys, and Frisk, who were all rewatching the scene from Frisk’s phone.
“That was s-so cute!” Alphys gushed. “You’re so adorable t-together! I think it’s my new OTP.”
Grillby groaned, covering his face with one hand as Sans laughed. “I hate all of you.” He stopped as a hand slipped into his own, looking down at Sans.
Sans smiled up at him, still chuckling a bit. His gaze softened a bit as he ran his thumb over Grillby’s knuckles. “So,” he said quietly, “What do you say, firefly? Coffee this Saturday.”
Grillby smiled, finally letting himself blush without panicking. He laced their fingers together and gave the skeleton a gentle nod. “That sounds lovely.”

thanks for the tag, @yourbrost !
What is your name?
aditi
What year are you in?
11th grade
What are you studying?
maths, physics, chem, biology and english
After graduation, whats next?
i want to study international relations but i also wanna study biochemistry but i also want to just not do anything yknow
Are you morning or night person?
night person, definitely. i don't have the brain capacity to be alive during the day.
Front, back or middle of the class?
just behind the front seat, and sometimes in the middle.
Best feedback from teachers?
hahah im one of those kids, too, who is considered a 'good kid' (what insanity, what a joke). my teachers usually praise my speaking skills? and my physics teacher told me that she loves how i analyze and solve problems. idk i get sad whenever i get compliments and then i forget about them
Best study tips?
i legit don't study for most of the year unless i like the subject or the chapter or whatever. so i don't have a lot of tips but the one thing that works for me is to do something productive, it doesn't have to be study-related. idk just doing smth helps me set the mood for the day so i can actually do other stuff.
oh and drink loads of water, it helps so much.
Three fun facts!
i can't listen to music and study (or just work, in general)
i have watched like, 3 tv shows in their entirety. i like a lot of them but don't have the attention span to actually fully watch them so i just read what happens next. kind of like how my life is tbh, i start so many projects and leave them all incomplete. sad.
i love reading and collecting books. an entire wall of my study room is solely dedicated to housing my novels. and the other half of the room contains my desk which i use once every year ✌️

just smth short i thought of idk when it fits into anything but whatever. post quidditch world cup? early morning the next day after everyone arrived back at the burrow. summer ‘94
Harry wakes, and only gets a flash of water before he’s up and creeping down the stares. Learned the tricky ones by now, that he’s able to sneak past the multiple rooms and levels without too much trouble. Ron had only rolled over once on his way out, but the snore that tore from him left Harry with nothing to worry about, anyway.
Doors shut, Harry counts them on his way down. Hand against the wall, some form of small comfort as he passes by photos and portraits, added to over the years, that he noted some of himself, Ron and Hermione. And that, of course, caused him to only think about the day before.
Once he had finally reached the base of the stairs, Harry noted dim amounts of light coming from the kitchen. No one else was up, unless Mr Weasley had returned. Whilst Harry didn’t think it was that early in the morning, he edges around mismatched furniture, getting closer to the lights. Two distinct voices meet his ears, and he stops himself from getting any closer.
Sounds of shifting furniture, and: “How’s the hand?”
“Fine. I think I did break my thumb back there.” A small amount of laughter that earns a chuckle. “That was crazy, wasn’t it?”
A sigh. “Stupid, Natasha. You could’ve got yourself killed.” Natasha? Harry’s mind supplied the information: girl from the World Cup. A stream follows, and he distinctly remembered Ron pretending to vomit while Charlie seemingly fawned over her. Ah.
“Says the man who was on his back with a wand pointed at his throat.”
There’s a lull, and Harry almost turns to go back upstairs. He could survive a few more hours without a drink. From what he was hearing, it was private, and Harry knew it wasn’t polite to linger. Just something in their tones suggested privacy.
He gets about three steps around a couch, when there’s a soft “Harry?” Damn, caught.
Swivelling on the spot, Harry tries to smile apologetically, although it likely came out as more of a grimace. “Sorry, didn’t want to interrupt.”
Charlie doesn’t seem as large as Harry remembered from only a few hours earlier, with how he was huddled over the woman next to him. Two cups of tea, still steaming on the table, and a mixture of bags and books spread in front of them. Harry tries his best not to look at them, as he quickly grabs a cup, flashing it under the tap. Walking in on something private, even intimate, made him acutely aware of every little movement.
Remarkably uncomfortable, even as he sculls the water, Harry notes how they continued their conversation in a different direction, as if he wasn’t there. Idle discussions of a holiday in the future, Charlie’s hand now resting on her shoulder. Natasha was writing with her free hand, the other resting on Charlie’s knee. Romania, Scandinavia, and wistful sigh of Greece. All wrapped up in talks of work and Durmstrang (drum strong?) and dragons.
Whatever it all meant. If anything, it surprised him, that they were able to talk about such things as if yesterday meant nothing.
It’s as Harry puts his cup to the side, that he hears the quiet again. Deafening, almost, and he’s almost afraid to look over his shoulder. Until there’s a screech of a chair being dragged over the floorboards, and Charlie is taking their cups back over to the kettle. Natasha has her chin resting on the palm of her hand, not looking at the older Weasley.
He doesn’t know what to think, as Harry looks away quickly. Trying to look at the ground, but finds himself flicking up once more, meeting her eyes. A brilliant green, not unlike his own, as he had been told many times before. Harry has a quick and fleeting thought that perhaps she had received many a compliments too, until a slight smile forms on her face. Like a pressure builds, right behind his eye, the longer he stares. He can’t quite describe it, until all at once it disappears, as if it never happened at all. Weird.
“You have very pretty eyes.” With the way she words it, Harry almost expects her to say ‘too’ at the end. But it’s Charlie who swoops in, with a snort that shocks Harry out of his socks.
“Don’t freak him out, Nat.” Admonishing, but Charlie almost sounded amused. Like there was a great big dirty trick at play, and Harry was on the outside.
She smiles, quite unlike the ones he had received earlier. Friendly, of course, and in such a way her cheeks rose high. But knowing. That’s what Harry would’ve called it. Unsettling, in a way, like she knew a lot of things he didn’t, and she wasn’t willing to share. Harry notes the twinkle at the corner of her eye, and doesn’t know how to put two and two together, of the person he met at the World Cup, and the one before him.
Charlie seems to have taken control of the situation when Harry wasn’t looking. In such a way that he no longer appeared so small, and instead filled the kitchen entirely. Cups of tea in his hands, but he still nudges his head in the direction of the stairs. “Go to bed, Harry. It’s still early, and mum’ll be up soon for breakfast. Get another hour in at least.”
“Right. Sorry.” Harry had never marched away so quickly before in his life, but he comes to a screeching halt right as he reaches the stairs. Natasha and Charlie were not too far behind him, conversation following him up. Not so hushed whispers, far from it. A wonder they weren’t worried about waking anyone.
“You didn’t have to scare him like that!” Charlie sounded embarrassed and amused all at once, and Harry peers down as they reach the third floor landing. Just outside a room that had been assigned to Bill and Charlie.
Natasha waved a hand in the air, as if to bat away his complaint. “He’s like an open book, Charlie! I couldn’t help myself.”
“Pfft, alright, liar.”
“Well, tell me, what’s on your mind, then?”
There’s a low murmur, and a giggle that suggests the end of that, and Harry slips inside Ron’s room without a backwards glance. Slips into his bed, without a thought to how Ron rolls over once more. More voices downstairs, as if Bill had woken too. Even as his eyes close, and it seems like the house gradually woke, Harry found himself falling asleep, thinking of how that pressure, almost felt like hands, holding his mind carefully. Strange and terrible to think about. He almost wished he would remember to ask Ron and Hermione about it at breakfast.

who cuts vegetables, fruit, etc by hand and who uses the easy to use chopper? when ellion did his lil cooking lessons, he definitely invested in SO MUCH CRAP, including easy to use stuff. rolan finds the most random things in cupboards and he’s like ??? *what’s this* and ellion insists that he’s going to use it one day soon but. rolan just prefers to cut them by hand for ease and bc ,, he looks Good doing it
who pours the cereal into the bowl first and who pours milk before the cereal? i think they both go for the cereal first but sometimes rolan is on a Health Kick where he decides he wants to measure out his cereal and milk to the recommended daily amount and will end up putting the milk in first that way 🙄
who buys/drinks bottle water and who uses/drinks from the tap? not to call him out, but has ellion ever even Tried tap water ?? he’s probably there claiming he would be able to tell the difference but rolan catches him out on it one day when he gives him tap water as opposed to bottle. even after that lil experiment, ellion sticks to the bottled water and rolan will take whatever is there.
who hoards disposable containers and who throws them away? if it’s from a takeaway, they’d end up throwing them away bc they have Nice tupperware and don’t need disposable containers. unless there’s something special about the containers ?? like they have a cute logo on ??
who buys milk in a paper carton and who buys it in a plastic jug? i just know rolan has protein shakes 🙄 so he’d look at getting a bigger quantity of milk and would prefer plastic jugs. i don’t see ellion minding what the milk comes in as long as it’s There ??
who picks paper bags and who picks plastic bags after grocery shopping? the Aesthetic of rolan carrying paper bags is Nice but it would require both arms, meaning ellion is left w/o a hand to hold :/ bUT ellion could always link arms instead of holding rolan’s hand, so if that’s the case, it really depends on how much shopping they have
who hoards the plastic bags and who recycles them? i’m not sure what ellion did Before rolan, but rolan likes to store them all inside another plastic bag so if he goes shopping, he can reuse them. he’ll only keep five or so in the house tho so the others would be recycled ??
who hoards salt/pepper packs, togo silverware and other togo condiments? the only thing i can see rolan hoarding is Maybe silverware and condiments simply bc he can they use them for his lunch ?? other than that, they really do be living Too Good to need to hoard togo stuff
who lets the garbage can overflow before throwing it out? nEither bc i don’t think they’d like the smell getting out of hand
who gets annoyed when someone doesn’t use the clips for the potato chips? correct me if i’m wrong but idk if ellion really Gets the concept of waste ?? so if he forgets to put a clip on the potato chips and they go Bad, he is content just getting a new bag out of the cupboard. rolan doesn’t get “”annoyed””, but he is like why
who uses paper plates? neither ?? they have cute plates
who uses coasters? again, both, bc they match the room and if they’re there, they may as well be used
who licks the spoon/butter knife after they use it? this is a trick question bc it’s Always ellion, regardless of who the utensil belonged with to start. if rolan sees there’s a lil smth smth left on a spoon, he’s calling his mans over to watch him lick it :/
who loses the bread ties? ELLION and rolan always finds them p much instantly when he realises they’re missing after ellion has complained that he’s “”looked everywhere”” for it
who kicks the ice under the fridge when it falls on the ground? neither of them bc if rolan Caught ellion doing it, he’d explain to him how dangerous it is and ellion probably would never do it again (if he even did it in the first place)
who constantly cuts/burns themselves when they cook? this is Equal, i feel, but the reactions to said ailments are vERY different. rolan cuts/burns himself ? you hardly ever hear about it or know that it’s happened. ellion cuts/burns himself ? he’s running to his mans w a pout to take a Look, put a plaster on it and kiss it better and that’s VALID
who organizes the spice rack? this would be a cute lil job for ellion to do bc again, he probably invested in an Entirely new spice rack when he started his cooking classes and instead of Actually cooking with the spices, he spent time making them look pretty
who uses the microwave more? ellion bc once he was thrown into the Real World and had to start cooking for himself, the microwave was the first step and ,,,,,,,,,, he never tRUly progressed from there bc a) uber is a thing and b) eating out with friends is a thing
who stops the microwave one second before time’s up? rolan does and it’s a habit he’s formed over the years smh

hey not 2 be moody or anyth but im gnna vent a lil bit
so uh. the last few days i was @ my dads i was rlly delusional n erratic nd i saw way more shit than i usually do (along w auditory bs) and i literally didnt sleep at all most nights,, 3 hrs or less which is weird for me during summer,, esp @ my dads. but anyways, on the way to meet my mom he got rlly pissed ovr smth trivial and i jus,, couldnt stop flinching bc god its not like he was gnna hurt me but literally any man raisng his voice makes me cry almost instantly when its tht close to my fuckn ears especially when it was literally unexpected n long story short he said i was rlly goddamn lazy or whatever n we didnt talk for an hour n a half lol it was a shitty carride
and on top of tht. i found out tht half my house burnt down while i was gone! the ac caught on fire. so we were (are) living in a fuckn hotel again, jus like in december-march, lol. my mom couldnt take the rats anywhre so we assumed they died from smoke inhalation (my cats n one of my dogs already got fuckd up over tht) but. yea. we had to keep all 4 of the cats outside during the scorching heat n we managed to take the dogs w us but damn. n on top of tht my uncle is back on heroin n he was presumed dead for 6 days, after stealing my grandmas only mode of transportation n fleeing for the va border. th only contact we had from him was him cussing my mom out (good on him tbh) and on top of THT my grandmas fucked bc she put out a report on her truck being missing n then revoked it so shes in trouble for harboring/helping a fugitive lmao,,, n at this point we can only assume tht my uncle might be dead so yeet
also th person im engaged to is prolly gonna break up w me but im too scared to even talk to them bc ive been tryng so hard to ignore the fact they traumatized me physically but wtver! its cool i guess. they keep talking abt killing themselves
anyways thts jus the small stuff. on top of tht, ive been blacking out way more thn usual when i drink nd apparently ive been fighting my mom every time i drink aswell so??? yah thts had a shit ton of bad consequences
n my favorite thing in the entire world, my cat peach, literally got her torso n below mauled, and its so bad tht shes on morphine n we cant afford her bills even w the red cross helping us. she dislocated her hip or smth and its rlly fucking bad bc jesus tht cat is my baby shes the only thing i care abt ive genuinely never loved smth so much and ik its dumb but idk what im gonna do if we have to put her down bc thats still smth tht might happen and honestly i jus dont fucking know what im gonna do if we put her down. shes my baby
before she got attacked tho, the same dog almost ripped off my other cats ear n rlly fucked up his head but hes healed a bit so its cool. th same dog attacked my other cat too but hes recovered already. n we dont know who owns the dog bc we havent seen it (our neighbor has been keeping us up to date n shes been trying to feed n water th animals)
my Other cat got stolen for a couple of days n the police might get involved over it lol,, they took him for awhile n hes back now but he was missing for ages. ppl have tried to take one of my other cats too bc hes an f4 bengal,, they sell for a lot,, but hes managed to evade it. th other one probably got taken bc hes a kitten n rlly naive. but hey the good news is my animals havnt died yet
also! i start school on monday! lol! everythngs going rlly great
idk more shit happened but im still trying to process a lot of stuff bc eugh
long story short: was rlly delusional n erratic+audio/visual hallucinations n getting no sleep, so i was practically on suicide watch again, stunted my already horrible relationship w my dad, found out half my house burnt down, assumed most of my animals tht got left behind were dead, living in a hotel again w my 6yo brother+mom+3 animals n relapsing a lot, i black out most nights but when i wake up i usually find out ive fought someone n self harmed a lot n face the consequences, person im engaged to might break up w me but i cant msg them to find out bc i get anxious bc i relive trauma they caused tht rlly fucked me up sexually, uhhhh my uncle is a fugitive and might be dead, hes using heroin again, my grandma is in trouble for harboring+helping a fugitive bc she put out a report on the truck he stole from her n then revoked it, found out my favorite living thing in the world (my cat peach) might have to be put down n im rlly unstable over it, she got attacked by a dog rlly brutally along w two of my other cats n the fourth one got stolen, im gnna have to deal w one of my friends havng feelings for me but i rlly dont want to confront it and i start my frst year of high school in 3 days! hooray
edit: ALSO i might have to confront th fact a girl i havent talkd to in abt 3 mnths tht i had a thing going on w is rlly unstable and i dont know if shes alive lol!

I've been following you for a really long time and this is the first time I've ever wanted to ask you a question. But why would you go camping alone without any light? That's just a really dumb thing to do...
(in ref to my tags here im pretty sure)
gather round, dear followers, for a series of anecdotes from Hell Camp, the source of my best and worst stories
when i was twelve my school sent all its year nine students class by class to a five-week camp, which will henceforth be called Hell Camp. here is the setup:
a four-hour drive out of the city into the outback, where there is a farm owned by the school for the express purpose of hosting Hell Camp
28 girls and 28 boys, each in their own dorm houses
no phones. no computers, no ipods, no TV. no internet (within our reach). we cooked our own food on fire stoves and wrote letters by hand to our parents and friends
no lollies, no soft drinks or juice, all our eggs and milk came off the farm
wake up at 5:30am every day to go for a 3km run and then chores on the farm, from milking the cows to chopping our firewood
Bible study every night because this was a Christian private school
“why???” u may ask. “why did your school subject tweens to a month of this???” supposedly to build character and teach u life skills but tbh idk how knowing how to crack a bullwhip is supposed to help me in life
but it wasnt just five weeks straight of same ol farm life there were other activities they had us do!! camp-like activities!! for example:
Pre-Survival
three days to prepare us because we were innocent younglings who barely knew how to start a fire
basically a campsite in the middle of fuckass nowhere? we rode horses there while the counselors (the Hell Camp resident teachers, but ones that deadlift 50kgs and kill spiders without batting an eye) drove with our bags and stuff and laughed as we got inevitably lost
have u ever used a dunny u have to empty urself
it is so gross. there is a field marked out explicitly for burying everyone’s shit, and u have to take turns. so gross.
there was a shower which was a metal shed with a bucket of water hung up, which u heated over the fire before u went in and prayed it wasn’t too hot
this was like winter time and we slept in swags on the ground and when we woke up there was frost on our swags
i made an iron horseshoe??? the temptation to touch red hot metal is ridiculous tbh it looks so pretty
someone did touch theirs. it was not me. i heard them yell from across the field where i was helping feed horses.
in the middle of the second night the counselors took us to a giant rock in the middle of the bush where u could see the stars and it was amazing you could see the milky way and everything… but the thing was we had to spend the previous 20 minutes in the dark to get our eyes used to it so they had us hold onto each other’s sleeves and walk blindly into this rugged, rock-covered trail through pitch blackness, praying no one in front is going the wrong way
and then. the counselors played a trick on us by getting one of the kids to stay back in the forest and waited to see how long we’d notice. we didn’t notice until it was time to go back im so sorry Kimmy
Survival
ok this the real shit you went with the same group you were with in pre-survival and the counselors drove you out into the depths of the outback and dropped you and your group off with some tools, food, and tarpauline
and then u just lived out there for three days.
we couldn’t start a fire our first night because it’d been raining before??? our dinner was supposed to be rice, potatoes and carrots, and the carrots were the only edible thing bc u cant eat raw rice and raw potatoes.. u just cant.
there were wild dogs around. we never saw them, but we heard them awoo-ing a lot. so whenever someone split off from the main camp to go pee like two other girls would accompany them as an honor guard, singing Kumbaya to keep the hounds away
sometimes people would go alone and then there would be a Sound in the bush and then you’d just hear them screaming “MAMA’S MAKING KAN TONG”
on our last day the counselors set up targets with drawings of kangaroos on them, handed us a bow and 20 arrows, and said “if u can shoot the kangaroo we’ll give u sausages for your last meal”
never in my life will i ever see such ferocity from 12- to 13-year-old hungry girls again
when it was another group’s turn to be on survival, my group was on normal farm duty, and we were out clearing bush scrub when we heard the survival group girls talking and we realised we’d gotten too close.
“hello?? hello??? is anyone out there?” “oh my god someone’s out there oh my god we’re gonna die” “COME OUT, WE HAVE WEAPONS”
THIS WAS A LIE. WE KNEW DAMN WELL THEY HAD THE SAME THINGS AS US AND THOSE THINGS WERE TWO SHOVELS AND A HEAVY DUTY CLIPPER.
and our fucking counselor just went “shhh!!” to us and herded us back like he just straight up left those nine girls thinking there were bush serial killers out for them
also apparently a tree fell on someone’s head at some point in their survival
at night we slept in a row like snuggling each other cause it was So Fracking Cold and lemme tell u it’s an experience being spooned by the girl who used to sigh whenever you raised your hand in class
Four Day Hike
what it says on the label
55km in four days, carrying all your food, sleeping bags, tents, clothes, toilet paper etc. and minimum 2L of water bottles you could refill at big barrels set out at designated stop points
this is, without a doubt, the single worst experience of my life
nothing good happens when u hand a group of kids a map and a compass and tell them “we’ll look for you if you’re not at the campsite by sundown but apart from that you’re on your own”
i was with an athletic group of kids?? they were Walking So Fast and i was just staggering along with my unfit friend like this is how i die on a godforsaken hill on our way to god knows where
actually i had an asthma attack and they left me behind for a bit fun times
the hike went through some willing farmers’ land and one boy who stupidly climbed a fence got chased by a bull
they sent us off group by group so we’d all make our own way, so whenever u bumped into another group you were like. okay one of us was going the wrong way and it better fucking well be you
there weren’t any showers or anything so we basically all wore the same clothes for four disgustingly sweaty days of hiking
someone used an anthill as a toilet bc it had a nice big hole to drop ur toilet paper down
the ants did not appreciate this
when you run out of toilet paper and it’s only 11am
Solo
this was it. the culmination of the camp. the ultimate character building experience.
which was just 24 hours of alternating boredom and sudden visceral terror now that i think about it
u got dropped off (again in the middle of nowhere see a theme yet) with tarp, a lil trowel, and a clipper, and u just set up camp and did whatever u wanted for 24 hours
they let u bring a bible.
i got really into Leviticus and Deutoronomy before it went dark
listen it was really really boring ok
AND HERE IT IS THE BIT WHERE I DIDN’T HAVE LIGHT WHILE CAMPING ALONE
listen when the sun goes down at 5pm, u go down too. there’s nothing else u can do?? u just gotta sleep???
or, like me, lie awake in mortal terror listening to the bush Come Alive
when the wallaby goes THUMP-THUMP-THUMP and you’re like holy shit this is it the abominable loch ness chupycabra has manifested in the australian outback and it’s going to eat me alive jesus christ protect me with the power of this bible
hence the sheer relief when the sun finally comes out and u can walk around without living in fear of accidentally walking face first into a spiderweb or scratchy lantana bushes
also a mini survey went around afterwards and i’m pretty sure a solid 60% of the girls took a shit on solo like… at long last u can take as long in the toilet as u want… without the other 27 girls banging on the door……
other miscellaneous stories that dont fit anywhere else:
one of the boys went missing?? he wandered off and couldn’t remember anything when they found him in the middle of the bush. cryptic
there was this one homesick girl who was REALLY homesick like she cried every day of the five weeks. by the end of the camp she’d approached everyone to talk about her Feelings and you’d just kind of groan softly when u saw her coming towards your bunk bc u knew u were in for a hopeless comforting session
on sundays sometimes we went to the nearby town’s elderly home to talk to the old folks and some of us could play music so we did little performances for them which was rly sweet!
there were lambs on the farm!! we named them Uggboot and i think Fleece Jacket or smth like that
there were cows too!! meat cows!! they were Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner
my first time on cow milking duty i tried to herd the bull towards the milking pens bc i did not realise he was not a cow. i quickly realised when he took very fast steps towards me and i Got The Dodge Out Of There
we spit roasted an entire pig for the final feast before we left and i will never forget it. the first time in my life i had crackling. half the group was weak in the knees cause we saw the pig get slaughtered and the other half was just “sweet, more for me”
whenever the new fruit delivery came in and the hunger games commenced in the kitchen… tween girls are actually ravenous wolves u heard it here first folks
when u going to the bathroom in the bush and u feel something touch your butt… is it a stray hair? is it a piece of grass? is it a bug??? who knows but nothing makes your bowels loosen faster
the unholy horror of finding spiders wherever you least expect it
ANTS IN THE SUGAR
“I saw Goody Proctor with the devil leaving the cupboard open for the ants!!!”
honestly so many things happened at Hell Camp that i can’t remember most of them anymore and it Rankles Me bc i know there were so many wild stories but here you go. some of the wildest ones.
11/10 went back to Hell Camp voluntarily once, would go back again again.

i was tagged by @jessechambrs to do this ask game over a month ago, liked the post, and then it got hidden under, like, 100 other posts. found it again while cleaning out my likes and figured i’d finally give it a go! thanks so much belle!! (also i know i’m two days late but happy birthday!!)
a – age: seventeen.
b – biggest fear: getting murdered in my house? idk i always feel like someone is hiding in the walls waiting for the perfect time to strike: like a serial killer or smth idk.
c – current time: 01:30 AM (going back up here to say i finished this & posted at 01:47).
d – drink you last had: water, lame ik i’m sorry.
e – every day starts with: i used to watch good mythical morning every start of the day but i’m pretty behind atm, so every day starts with me wishing i wasn’t awake, mostly.
f – favorite song: hallelujah by leonard cohen is my go-to answer to this question because it never gets old to me, but i’ve recently been in love with america by simon & garfunkel. oh, and for instrumental, i love the finale from the cloud atlas movie soundtrack.
g – ghosts, are they real: yeah, i was haunted freshman year for like 3 months.
h – hometown: a really small town in pa called bellwood that i (thankfully) no longer live in.
i – in love with: many celebs and fictional characters, but i’ll say matthew daddario so the list doesn’t go on forever.

q – question you’re always asked: i mean i don’t think there’s anything specific, but people like teachers, doctors, etc always say my name like “reegan?” so it’s technically a question, and they always pronounce my name wrong.
r – reason to smile: funny tv shows and musical theatre music.
s – song last sang: ugh oh god i’m so bad at singing it doesn’t happen often enough to remember. a better question to ask is what’s the last song i whistled, because that i do every day and i’m good at it. i think the answer to both though is america but simon & garfunkel.
