Fluent Freshman - Part 14
PREVIOUS
When Andrew came out of his bedroom to grab a second Allen wrench (he’s working on the frame of the dresser while Neil builds the drawers) he finds quite a few things to irritate him.
1st was the sound of his brother and his cousin arguing loudly. Andrew had been pretty clear that they needed to be quiet that morning but following Andrew’s clearly given guidelines was NEVER either of their strong suits.
2nd was the fact that there was a smell in the air that Andrew was unsure of. It wasn’t a bad smell. It didn’t smell like Nicky had left some component of the breakfast FF had bought to burn. Andrew sniffed the air again and…..lavender? It wasn’t really a smell that existed in the house of three college student boys.
3rd and most irritating was the fact that FF was not where Andrew had left him four hours ago on the couch. Again, Andrew had been pretty clear to both Nicky and Aaron that FF was to be left ALONE. FF hadn’t been able to go to sleep until Andrew had promised that nothing would happen to him while he slept.
He moves towards the kitchen table where Nicky and Aaron are eating some of the sour patch kids that FF had brought back as they argued, “He can’t be serious that Kate and I gross him out more than Andrew and Neil! I’ve seen how fast he walks away when they start getting gross.” He hears Aaron say.
“Aaron I have watched Smithy climb out a second story window because you and Katelyn started making out and he’d have to walk closer to you to go out the door.” Nicky returns. “I think you made him mad when you implied he was grossed out by Andrew and Neil. This is why I get spoon privileges and maybe, if Smithy is feeling forgiving, you can swipe your finger around the bowl.” he points at Aaron.
Andrew hangs back just out of sight.
He knows that FF does not like to be subjected to seeing PDA. A part of him feels…better at the confirmation that it really isn’t because him and Neil are both men. FF has seen them hold hands, kiss chastely, and lean on one another and been unbothered by that it was only when it started getting a little heated that  they’d realize that FF had left. FF never makes a scene about it, never scoffs in disgust or squeals in delight he just seems to see where it’s going and will leave if he doesn’t want to see it.
It’s nice.
“Well he’s probably mad at you for waking him up. Andrew said to leave him alone.” Aaron returns.
“He needs breakfast! He also has to take his ulcer meds at the same time so he had to wake up and eat something. He can go back to sleep after!” Nicky defends.
Andrew scowls. Ok. Nicky could live if that was the reason he woke FF up. Still, why the hell is FF in the kitchen and more importantly what bowl and spoon are Aaron and Nicky arguing over?
Andrew tunes his family’s argument out and heads to the kitchen to find FF putting a baking dish into their oven while incense burned on the counter (Andrew now realizes that was the thin box that had been in with the rest of the candy)
He sees the bowl and spoon that Nicky had mentioned and more importantly he can see the chocolate brownie batter on them. Andrew walks over to the bowl and picks it up. He wipes his finger along the inside and…
He closes his eyes for a moment to savor the flavor of the batter. He leans against the counter and his hand brushes against….a five hour energy bottle. Andrew knows he had thrown out the two he had found in FF’s bags before (Ulcer + exhaustion + FF = bad he didn’t need to be a math major like Neil to understand that math.)
Andrew shoves the bottle in his sweatshirt pocket as FF turns around and stares at him passively. FF’s eyebrow’s raise slightly but there’s no other reaction. Andrew considers that, perhaps, FF had wanted to lick the bowl.
He offers the spoon instead knowing it is the better prize but FF is the one who bought the ingredients and mixed together this amazing batter, so he gets first dibs.
“That wouldn’t be good for my stomach.” He declines and Andrew wonders if FF had taken his meds yet or, in his tired state, he’s forgotten to.
“When did you wake up?” Andrew asks.
“Hour ago.”
He should go back to sleep after he takes his meds but also knows that FF probably won’t go to sleep until the brownies are done.
“I’ll make the pie tomorrow.” FF says and Andrew blinks out of his thoughts.
Andrew decides to go get FF’s meds for him. He’ll make it clear to FF later that the guy doesn’t HAVE to keep making amazing desserts as a thanks for being invited to Columbia. If FF just so happens to WANT to keep making amazing desserts then Andrew isn’t going to be the person that stops him.
He shoves the spoon in his mouth and heads out to go find Smith’s bag and his meds.
Aaron and Nicky see him and both let out outraged noises as their quarry had been stolen.
Andrew ignores them and gets to the bag by the couch.
Who the fuck just has 14 bottles of five hour energy sitting in their bag??
***
When Andrew handed FF his ulcer meds he could admit to feeling grateful even if Andrew had obviously gone through his bag to grab it. He swallows it dry because Andrew is standing by the sink and he knows that until Andrew eats a brownie he is not in a position to ask for favors big or small.
(He learned his lesson from that one time with Captain Neil. If he wants to do anything related to Russian he has to be in the safety of his lofted bed under the cover of night and the cover of his…covers while he reads via flashlight. He will not be caught so flat footed again! These are all necessary precautions!)
Andrew seems to very much want for FF to be in prime condition for the hunt. Part of him wonders if he’ll be released amongst other game animals and FF had never felt more jealous of the turkey who got pardoned by the president the day before. Why does that stupid bird get all the luck? Where’s his presidential pardon?
That grateful feeling evaporates into a dust cloud as Andrew lifts a plastic bag, “Stop drinking these.” Andrew hisses, “They’re going to make your ulcer worse.” He points at FF.
“I need them.” He says.
“For what?”
“Five hours of energy at a time.”
“Pull out the brownies and go back to sleep Smith.”
“They still have 10 minutes.”
“Then I’ll pull them out in 10 minutes.”
“There’s a final step that I have to do once they’re fresh out of the oven.”
“What is it.”
“Smith Family Baking secret. I don’t make the rules.” FF gestures towards where the incense continues to burn, “Great Gran’s recipe and methods cannot be shared with non-blood relatives. My mom wasn’t even let in on the secret.”
Thank god
Andrew glowers at him.
Oh God
“It’ll be just 20 more minutes.”
Andrew’s eyes narrow at him.
“They’ll be worth it.” He pleads.
Andrew rolls his eyes.
“Go to sleep when they’re done. Take Nicky’s room.” Andrew commands.
“Take Nicky’s what?” Nicky leans into the kitchen.
“Smith is going to go back to sleep on your bed.”
“Yeah you look like shit Smithy. Don’t worry, unlike Neil and Andrew’s bed mine is all safe.”
Nicky zips out of the kitchen with Andrew hot on his heels. Nicky really is a good friend.
He performs the sacred rites necessary upon the brownies when they come out of the oven and takes a small corner piece to taste test and -
He closes his eyes and clasps his hands together in prayer.
‘Thank you Great Gran.’ He prays earnestly.
‘Remember to wash behind your ears’ he thinks he hears a whisper of grandmotherly advice in return.
That was probably normal.
He extinguishes the incense.
He cuts up the brownies, finds a decently sized plate, and sets the brownies out on the counter before he starts to work on doing the dishes. Yeah Yeah he could have been cleaning while he waited for the brownies to cook! That’s what you always do right? Clean as you go?
Well have you ever been baking brownies that might be the difference between life and death? No? Well then FF is just going to have to stop you right there because he had the oven light on and his eyes GLUED to these fudgey squares.
Who knows what the cousins’ oven would do? He doesn’t know this oven. He and this oven are taking their first whirl together and it could decide to turn on him at any time. They don’t have the brotherhood that he and the oven at his Gran’s house have built over the years! This oven could be one of those ones that maintain their temperature by turning on the broiler! He felt like he could never again recklessly trust an oven after he tried to make crescent rolls in the Viking Oven at his step father’s house and had gotten them back blackened by the broiler.
That oven had been the SINGLE thing he had been excited about during the kitchen remodel which means naturally it was the thing that had betrayed him.
He lets himself think of all the ways he hates the Viking brand as he finishes the dishes and puts everything back to where they belong.
He walks out of the kitchen with the platter of brownies and sets them down on the table where Aaron and Nicky are sat. “Oh my god they smell amazing.” Nicky says and immediately his hand is shooting towards the plate and picking up a corner piece.
FF valiantly resists the urge to slap his and Aaron’s hands away. He needs these to compel Andrew into letting him live.
“Oh wow, those do smell good.” He hears Captain Neil’s voice and when FF turns around Captain Neil and Andrew are both there. It is only in that moment that he realizes that he should have bought some vanilla ice cream to go with these.
Andrew’s love of ice cream was not unknown, probably even infamous. He was the man who, during the summer training, had been so possessive over the soft serve machine in the cafeteria that anyone who wanted any had to ask Captain Neil to get them a bowl or risk being threatened.
He starts towards the door. At this point Target probably isn’t even that bad, probably just some irate people who didn’t come with the rush and are mad they missed out, maybe some officers talking to witnesses on who threw cast the first Wii remote, and workers who will hate him marginally less (unless he gets the same check out person and they remember him (unlikely))
His progress is arrested by a hand grabbing his hoodie.
“Where are you going?”
“I forgot Ice Cream.” And he could get a five hour energy to slam on the way back home.
He then finds himself being pulled down an unfamiliar hallway.
Ah, the anticipation had been killing him more than the fear of his demise. His brownies had not contained the requisite amount of grandmotherly love to save him he had been relying on extract (Great Gran’s spirit guiding his hands) instead of organic (he does not have grandchildren or children for that matter)
Maybe ice cream would have been the deciding factor? He’ll never know.
He closes his eyes and lets himself be dragged. He’s too tired to fight.
A door opens, and he finds himself sat on a bed.
Weird.
“You are falling asleep standing up. Go back to sleep. I’ll leave you at Eden’s if you fall asleep in the booth.” Andrew threatens.
What.
FF knows about Eden’s.
He has heard about it from Nicky trying to get him to agree to go but he’s pretty sure it’d be like introducing an Amazon rainforest frog to the Sahara desert in terms of survivability for him.
“We’re going to Eden’s tonight?” He manages to ask.
Andrew raises an eyebrow at him but answers, “Yes.”
“I’m not really interested in clubs. I don’t drink out in public or dance.”
“Neither does Neil. I just drink. We can stay in the booth.”
“I don’t want to interrupt your time with Captain Neil.”
“It’s fine, neither of us hate spending time with you.”
“I don’t have clothes for a place like that.”
“Nicky grabbed some for you. You’re coming tonight. Go to sleep.”
With that Andrew pulls Nicky’s curtains close, shuts off the light, and closes the door.
FF, always very much like a bird when placed into a suddenly dark environment, starts to feel some of the  exceptional sleepiness that he’d been pushing off through sheer manic desperation to earn another day of life.
He lays down in Nicky’s bed and is tired enough that he can ignore the sheer amount of body glitter on the sheets (does Nicky excrete it like sweat??) and starts to let himself drift off to sleep.
Eden’s might be something completely out of his wheelhouse but-
A conversation with Nicky from when he’d been trying to get FF to go comes into his mind and he sits straight up in bed as Nicky’s words roll around in his head like stale hotdogs at a gas station.
“Eden’s is cool, even though there’s some sick shit in the basement.”
Eden’s is a Secondary Location with a BASEMENT.

hi! hope this is an OK ask and I don’t mind if this gets posted for others to see links or if you’d prefer to message me privately, I’m trying to do my own research but struggling to find solid sources and not sure if I’m using the right keywords, I saw a post of yours that said JVP has platformed a known anti-semite (I’m reading up about Amin al-Husseini now to learn more about him) and that they are generally not a positive representation for the Jewish community. I’ve followed them on Instagram for a few years with very little interactions with their posts but have definitely taken in what they’ve shared from time to time and thought of them as a positive source. Are you able to send me any helpful articles/essays/posts or just whatever about why they aren’t and do you have any recommendations for other organisations and groups to support? thank you :)
hi! sorry for the long delay. i hope youre still doing your own research and aren’t relying on social media for news. i want to preface this by saying that i'm not in the US or in an area where JVP is active (that I know of) so there are definitely other people who know more about this.
JVP is a *fringe* organisation, self proclaimed jewish anti-zionists and everyone's favourite group to point to when trying to argue that anti-zionism =/= antisemitism.
unfortunately, they have a long history of promoting antisemitism. here are a few examples:
As for organisations to recommend: all of my amazing jewish mutuals have shared resources on standing together, the parents circle, truah and combatants for peace, just to name a few.
these are grassroots organisations, at heart working towards a peaceful solution for both israelis and palestinians, demanding a ceasefire, the return of the hostages and the end of war and violence. neither group is going anywhere and every single person deserves to live in peace. something that both hamas and the current israeli government have in common is that they do not want peace for everyone.
please continue to do your own research, check your sources and remember that seeing everyone as human is the first step in the right direction.
also quick shoutout to @fromgoy2joy for helping me find comprehensive lists

DELAN MY BELOVED <333
thank u for the food he's perfect and i love him dearly. ALSO I JUST CAME UP WITH ANOTHER QUESTION: do your ocs like having any pet names or nicknames (or honorifics if they're into that) they like to be called?
ABSVDHVF TY
it’s still batshit to me that people, like, are invested in my characters so im so excited about this
fair warning this is probably going to be unorganized and scattered because my brain is a tad bit fried.
NICKNAMES!!!!! (i did like. lil scenarios for how they’d tell you about these :))
SETH: [look. this is a demon with a power imbalance kink. i’m sorry in advance.]
“That’s ‘yes, sir,’ martyr. or ‘my lord.’ Are you forgetting our deal? The second that pretty little heart stops beating, I own you.”
EDEN:
“Oh! You…wanna give me a nickname? No, no, anything is fine! Though…could you maybe…not use any mean ones?”
GALILEO:
“What does this have to do with the experiment, doctor…? Don’t look at me like that, you know I’m teasing!”
“Just call me your love, the light of your life, your favorite specimen— it doesn’t matter.”
(also, nickname-wise, galileo is sometimes shortened to leo.)
DELAN:
“My sweet songbird, you can call me anything you’d like.”
“Though, I wonder if you have any specific ones in mind…after all, romance and language have both changed greatly in my time.”
JONAH:
“Could you…call me a good boy? Please?”
(should be noted here that if you ever call him that, his tail will wag fast enough to sound like a very tiny helecopter)

what if we give eden... a roomba...
He'd most likely tear that damn thing apart for scrap metal, spare screws and other little bits he can get from it tbh.
You have a perfectly good working broom! That doesn't need batteries or to be charged! The roomba's remains will be very useful, however.
Alternatively, Eden is the type to put a knife on that mf.

I don't have a big enough platform to get sent asks, so fuck it, I'm doing the ask meme by myself, starting with my favorite character from my favorite peice of media of all time.
(p.s. if anyone wants to send me an ask to continue this you can. Hollow Knight, Hades, or Honkai Impact 3rd characters only please)
Troupe Master Grimm
Sexuality Headcanon: Gay, he's absolutely the gayest person in any room he walks into.
Gender Headcanon: Demiboy. Grimm's stance on gender is similar to PK's, meaning he's like, "You know what? Male seems alright, let's go with that."
OTP: Pale Nightmare(Grimm/The Pale King) 100%, this is my comfort ship. I also really enjoy Grumm, which used to be my comfort ship until the Pale Nightmare brainrot set in.
BroTP: He and the White Lady are gossip buddies and you cannot convince me otherwise. The two of them talk quite a bit about how cute PK is, which is exactly what happens when two friends share a romantic partner.
NOTP: Any of PK's descendants. I prefer to ship things that could all make sense in the same context, and in a context where he'd be their stepfather, yeah, no, I shouldn't need to explain why that makes me uncomfortable. I can kind of understand Grollow since they parallel each other in an interesting way, but it still rubs me the wrong way personally.
Random Headcanon: He sleepwalks, but because he always ends up in the nightmare realm(or Eden(the afterlife), but that's AU shit that I haven't found the time to talk about yet), the shit he does while sleepwalking always ends up being absolutely terrifying. Each member of the troupe has their own horror story for their first time witnessing it.
General Opinion: He's the theater obsessed vampire twink that stole my entire heart the very moment I saw him.
Song: I have a few but "Nightmare Parade" by FAKE TYPE. is always the first that comes to mind, along with "Providence" by Poor Man's Poison in reference to his tales of what drove various kingdoms to collapse.
