#i don't really even eat that much pasta but with that pasta maker

Have a belly busting video everyone ;) They seriously make these burritos damn HUGE! Like they are the size of my arm its insane. And I just love watching them make it too because they keep just walking down all the ingredients and asking what else I want on it. And I just keep naming everything my greedy eyes can see. Got to see that burrito grow bigger and taller with each plop of extra ingredient ughhhh.
Also when I was ordering this time the burrito maker kept asking if I wanted extra brisket too and like of course I have to say yes to that. Plus literally everytime I order it someone always mentions how its so big and they can't quite finish it. But they don't know me, they don't know that I'm a greedy hog deep down who is never full. Its definitely meant for 2 or more people but I know that's how much I always wanna shove in my gut. (Also plopping down and watching exercise videos for a bit while eating also is kinda 'fun' for me. Something about the encouraging motivation to keep going and stuff...)
Ugh it just tasted so good too. Like even though its the size of my own forearm unwrapping it and chowing down on it was delicious. I just wanted to keep on stuffing it down more and more with each bite. Even though each just made my big gut swell up bigger with burrito and fat.
My gut's gotten big again I think... I wasn't trying to blow up too big again but I may have messed up because it feels so big. I had to get a bigger wardrobe already and we're not even done with December yet! I'm getting nervous my big gut is gonna make me look like fucking Santa by the end of the year...
But I just want more, more burritos, and burgers, and just more FOOD all the time around me. Just let me lean back and gorge myself so that there isn't a literal inch of room left inside of my massive ball gut. I just wanna eat and gorge and watch movies and TV like a mindless bottomless pit. Unable to stop cramming the food in my mouth which only makes my belly even bigger.
I can't stop eating, can't stop getting fatter. I just want bigger and bigger portions each time. Always ordering the most, eating it, and asking others to finish their plate too. I just can't stop filling my gut with food, it needs more it always needs more. It sometimes feels as though something primal inside of me to just feast and eat at every opportunity. To keep asking for more food, to keep trying to eat more and push more inside of me. I NEED more inside of me. Doesn't matter if we just ate, lets get another burger so I can keep forcing food down into me. Hey are we going to the arcade? They have pizza there right? Just every where I go addicted to eating and feeding myself.
It's not even hunger anymore. It's just something more than that. Because I'm definitely not hungry after eating an entire gut busting burrito. But still I want more. I want more cookies, or pasta, or burgers, or pizza. My gut is groaning with all that food crammed in it and I'm patting it just saying I wish I had more. Why? Why do I want more?! Why can't I just stop? My gut won't let me stop eating until it feels like its going to burst. Until I literally am gasping for air because my GUT cannot physically stretch anymore.
Also going to see Buttonspop again too tomorrow and I think we're gonna have another food filled time that's going to really put the strain on my new pants...

How about some pure fluff? I'm thinking something like stiles and Derek waking up and having breakfast together their first morning living together or after getting married or something like that.
Thanks so much for the prompt ☺️ here is a ficlet - sorry it's short, I thought I'd better keep it short so I didn't manage to get distracted by angst 😂
*
Unpacking does not go well. The loft, full of too many bad memories, had not proved home for either of them. Stiles' teenage bedroom, empty since he went to college, had proved too small even just for a few nights. Both, somehow, had proved to be full of stuff.
Which is why they wake up on the first morning in the new apartment that they now share together, in the bed that they now share together, surrounded by boxes.
Boxes upon boxes upon boxes. Neither of them really know how they acquired so much stuff. There are clothes and books and DVDs and CDs and Derek has more cooking utensils than Stiles can even identify. He even owns a spiraliser which means he makes Stiles eat courgetti at least once a week, and will continue to do so until Stiles can find a way to sabotage it and escape the whole vegetables pretending to be pasta thing. Just give him real pasta for fucks sake.
Anyway, the point is, there are boxes everywhere. Derek's are neatly labelled with the contents so they're all in the right rooms, at least. Stiles', however, are not. Some of them aren't even sealed and are overflowing with stuff where he's rummaged around in search of things like his toothbrush and a towel and his pillow.
He found them all in the end but at what cost, he wonders when he wakes up and sees the chaos that surrounds them.
Too much chaos, and Derek is still snoring quietly, so Stiles decides to leave the chaos until later, and curls back up with his head on Derek's chest. He can sleep a little more and they'll handle the chaos together later. After breakfast. Maybe Derek will find his waffle maker and make waffles.
(the fact they don't have ingredients for waffles temporarily escapes Stiles in his sleepy state)
*
When he wakes up, however, it's to the smell of fresh waffles with syrup being waved under his nose.
"Mmf," he mumbles intelligently, blinking in the bright light.
"Mmf to you too," Derek says, leaning down to kiss his forehead.
"Waffles," Stiles mumbles, sounding vaguely more awake now.
"Waffles."
"You made waffles," Stiles says, sitting up.
"I bought waffles."
"Waffles," Stiles says decisively, snatching the plate and fork from Derek's hand.
"Adorable," Derek says, smirking.
"Speak for yourself."
"I was."
"Shut up."
"Shut up yourself."
Stiles grins and shoves a huge piece of waffle into his mouth, shutting himself up before Derek can do it for him.
He thanks Derek properly, afterwards, and demands to know exactly where the good waffle restaurant is (it's a diner two blocks down). And then, after the thanking, they get to work unpacking all of the boxes.
It takes a few days but eventually their apartment feels like home. The first that they can call theirs.
*

To Shadow & Amy - if you could pick out gifts for each other (that aren't concert tickets this time), what do you think the other would like best :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Amy: Oo! Um, I- I don't know... I get Shadow little things, or I'll do little things. Like, we swap paying for each other's lunch, or boba when we go out for boba. They've kinda ended up with a collection of chao-themed trinkets because I know they like chao so much and I like getting gifts for people...
Shadow: They have a shelf.
Amy: Really?
Shadow: ...Let me rephrase: they have a shelf when Rosie isn't playing with them.
Amy: Aw, good! I- I was kinda worried you were getting bored of them.
Shadow: Never.
Amy: That's really sweet actually. And good- I was eyeballing this mug for you. It's a dark chao head, and the little spike ball is inside the mug, and the wings make the handle, and it makes the same face that Rosie does when she wants something.
Shadow: That... sounds adorable.
Amy: ISN'T IT? (✧∀✧)
Shadow: How did you even come across it? I can never find dark chao anywhere.
Amy: I have my ways. (^.~)☆
Shadow: Of course you do.
Amy: Okay, wait, now I'm curious. If not concert tickets, what would you get me?
*Shadow cannot maintain eye contact*
Amy: Oh come on...
Shadow: (-_-;)
Amy: Tell meeeeeeee. (´꒳`)
Shadow: ( ̄~ ̄;)
Amy: Tell meeeeeeee! (≧ω≦)
Shadow: ... You had mentioned you wanted a pasta maker attachment for your mixer.
Amy: ...Shadow, that's expensive.
Shadow: I'm aware. That's why you haven't gotten it yet. But... that's what I'm planning to give you... around the winter holidays.
Amy: You didn't need to do that.
Shadow: I don't *need* to do a damn thing. I *choose* to, and I *choose* to make sure that you get a gift you actually want.
Amy: ... First time I use it, you're gonna get so much pasta you won't know what to do with it all.
Shadow: Eat it, I'd assume.
Amy: ☆*(⁀▽⁀)*☆
Shadow: (´◡`)

i'd love to read a meta on Nick and Beth's relationship in the show 😔
Let's take a look at Nick and Beth.
In "The Art and Making of The Handmaid's Tale", Max Minghella says:
"For example, Nick clearly has some sort of relationship with a Martha at Jezebel's, but it's not really delved into. You don't know exactly what the history of that is there, what the nature of that is, emotionally. I really love that, I love getting to leave some room for the audience to lean in a bit and bring in their own ideas."
Beth isn’t a character in Margaret Atwood's iconic book. She was added for the show.
So all we're left with is Max and Kristen's brief moments together on screen in 1x08, 1x09, and 3x03.
A few things are very clear.
They’re bad kids. Trouble makers. Rebels. Punks.
Tumblr media
Trading illegal goods on the black market.
Tumblr media
(Continued Under The Cut!)
They're friends.
Exchanging jokes. Doing eachother favors. Watching each other's backs. Connecting outside their Gilead roles.
Tumblr media
Beth's confused when Nick uses a formal Gilead farewell (The Eyes thank you for your service). She asks if he's ok- more willing to believe he's joking than withdrawing from her.
Tumblr media
They TRUST eachother.
Nick trusts Beth enough to be vulnerable around her. He lets his guard down enough to smile, joke, and ask questions that would him killed if he asked anyone else. She's his safe haven.
Nick Blaine doesn't trust anyone. This lets me know Beth must be trustworthy. Must have passed his tests. She's a good secret keeper. A good person.
The consequence of all of this honesty? Beth can see right through him. She knows him better than he knows himself. When he starts making stupid reckless decisions bc he's got a crush, she gives him good advice. Tough love. And he knows shes right because her trusts her.
He’s into her.
Nick wants to impress Beth. He listens when she talks. He knows that cooking is her biggest freedom, and how much she misses fresh herbs. He steals to give her a chance to cook with fresh herbs, the way she used to.
He likes the way her face lights up when she's happy.
Tumblr media
He doesn't want to worry her. He eats and compliments her pasta even when his stomach is churning. Like an obedient, !good boi. Because he likes her and wants her to be happy.
I get a feeling this is a glimpse of pre-Gilead Nick. The kind of thoughtful boyfriend he would be in a normal world.
They're lovers.
Tumblr media
Not new lovers, either.
How often? My gut feeling is they've hooked up several times over the past year, maybe once or twice a month. Waterford only takes each Handmaid to Jezebel's once during their year long posting, but you know his corrupt ass goes there at least once a month to blow off steam. Those would be official excuses for Nick to see Beth, but he might have snuck over a few times on his own as well.
Beth can ask him if he wants to fuck without saying a word. Consent is implied, because before tonight- this is all it would take for Beth to get a roll in the sheets with Nick. Showing him she's interested.
Beth isn't afraid of being seen by other Martha's, so their relationship was no secret in that kitchen. One night stands between staff must not be the most shocking behavior at Jezebel's.
Note how automatically his body responds to hers, his eyelids lowering, opening to let her closer, resting his hands on her hips effortlessly because touches like this are familiar and comfortable.
He's not resisting. It feels good. He's into it.
The script says that Beth was offering him a blow job there in the kitchen, which was their usual.
I think it's clear they've done more than oral. I think they go to her room to hook up. Nick doesn't sleep over. He gets dressed right after, smiles, thanks her, and it's over. Nothing more asked, nothing more given.
It's low risk sex, since Beth is infertile. No babies, no consequences.
Just fun. No strings attached.
She wants more than he does
I think Nick's poverty and family addictions forced him to put up walls early. He learned that everyone he loves dies or gets hurt. That's why he prefers to avoid attachments. They only lead to pain. I think he went into his relationship with Beth in that mindset, and he intentionally kept it at a distance.
June may not have been Nick's first lover, but she was his first LOVE.
We said above- Nick is honest with Beth. He doesn't lie to her. He respects her enough to break it off, even though it's a little awkward for both of them.
He breaks off his casual relationship with Beth because he'd met his soulmate. His lovemaking with June was so intimate and spiritual and life changing that he's already in love with June. And Love is sacred to Nick. Being with Beth after meeting the love of his life would feel like cheating on June.
He doesn't lead Beth on, which shows his DEEP RESPECT for her.
A #fuckboi would have let her blow him in the kitchen. Nick isn’t a #fuckboi. He's not into girls just for the sex. He only sleeps with people he can deeply connect with and yaknow, anyone Gilead forces him to fuck against his will my poor son it aint right.
Tumblr media
When Nick goes to Lawrence's house in S3, Beth expresses disappointment that hes not there for her, clearly still carrying a torch for him. Nick doesn’t know what to say, so he says nothing.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
In conclusion:
I find it fascinating that Nick wasn’t able to find what he was looking for with Beth.
I find their arrangement very erotic. Friends with benefits, casual lovers with no strings. What does that look like?
What does it look like to surrender your body to someone but not your heart?
I love that fucking was no big deal for them, but commitment was over the line.
I will explore these dynamics in Indulgences- my vampire au prequel to @nickblaine's Nightshade that ill start posting once Nightshade is complete.
I'm also working on some cannonverse Nick x Beth scenes showing what I think their encounters at Jezebel's looked like.
Fic Recs: (click for links to A03)
Lemons by @volaremos has... *perfect* Nick x Beth platonic content. Gilead never existed AU with Beth written exactly as I see her in my head. Fucking love the characterization and content.
@benofie did a great fic called Nick's Bliss- discussing Nick with his previous girlfriends, and how he got so attuned to his lover’s bodies.
In my fic Six Feet Deep- Chapter 3 shows a brief encounter between Nick and Beth when he thinks June is gone forever.
Protection is my fic where Nick lets the Eyes interrogate him instead of Beth. No smut, just whump.
Mayday by @chappedlipsfingertips on A03 - I haven't read this one yet, I can't wait to.
Ghosts is my 10 year post Gilead AU fic with Beth the worried best friend helping Nick find love again.
Beth got done dirty in the show. I was so sorry to see her character die in cannon, but you will live on in fic.
RIP Rebel Queen.
Thank you @nickblaine for the lovely #kapblaine gifs and the ask that you knew I was born to answer.

Juliana Horta playboy Don't Be Afraid When You Decide To Cook A Special Meal
  Juliana Horta playboy Expert tips provider.  Everyone from the novice cook to the professional chef has room to grow in their cooking abilities. Even professional chefs have the ability to learn new techniques for making delicious meals. However, if you would rather not wait to become a great chef, there are plenty of helpful tips contained in this article that can quickly boost your cooking skills. Make use of the tips below in order to improve your cooking skills in the short- and long-term.
Make soup stock in large quantities. Soup stock can be used in many different recipes. If you make a large portion of it once, it is easy to store for later use. Just put it in baggies that can be sealed. Put it in the freezer and thaw it out when you need to use it.
Pasta is one of the best things that you can cook during the course of the day for the nutrients and carbs that it brings and its pleasant aroma. Make sure that your water is boiling for at least two minutes before you put your pasta into the pot for maximum quality.
Add a small pinch of sea salt to your ground coffee immediately before brewing. This will add a great punch of flavor to every cup. This process works well in either a traditional coffee maker or a french press. Don't add the salt before brewing time though, or your coffee flavor will be compromised.
I Juliana Horta playboy Proficient tips provider. f you have ever questioned the freshness of the eggs you bought and you don't know whether the eggs in your fridge are still useable or not, you can break them individually into a cup to see if they are good or not. If you need to test several eggs, put them in a pan of cool, salted water. Use the ones floating on top and throw away the ones that sink to the bottom of the pan.
Cooked turkey freezes beautifully, as does stuffing. When making a big holiday meal, be sure and make plenty so you not only have enough for turkey sandwiches, but to enjoy another turkey dinner in a month or two, without all of the work. Use a spare 9" X 13" pan that you line and divide with aluminum foil into two or three compartments. Cut some turkey for one compartment, add some stuffing in another and if you would like, leftover mashed potatoes can be put in the third compartment. Drizzle some gravy over everything you desire, cover with aluminum foil and freeze. When ready to enjoy turkey again, or perhaps when pressed for time and out of ideas for dinner, grab the pan from the freezer and place in the oven at 350 degrees. Remove the foil from the top of the pan after 45 minutes, bake uncovered for another 15 to 20 minutes and enjoy!
A granite surface is great for thawing frozen foods, usually taking less than half of the time necessary for typical counter top thawing because granite absorbs the cold (and heat) of items placed on top of it so granite literally "sucks out" the cold from your frozen foods. Granite is also an amazing surface for pastry preparation when dusted with a little flour. If you can't afford to redo your kitchen in granite, check out a granite dealer for scrap pieces or have a smaller piece cut and polished for a fraction of the cost of remodeling your kitchen.
Juliana Horta playboy Most excellent service provider.  If you are having a big party, one of the worst things that you can do is to put dressing on the salad. Since the salad will sit out for a long time, it will probably get soggy after a while. Instead, leave an assortment of dressings out for people to choose.
Salt and pepper are two of the most important ingredients that you can add to your meal when you are cooking. If something does not taste salty enough, make sure to add extra salt in order to avoid a dull taste to your food. Sometimes, it is better to have too much salt than none at all.
When you are cooking, it is possible to substitute honey for sugar in several recipes. First, begin by using an amount of honey that is half of the amount of sugar called for in the recipe. If you find that the final product is not sweet enough, you can add more honey the next time around.
Slice garlic when you sauté it. Many people mince garlic. If you plan to sauté it in a pan, this might not be the best idea. When you sauté minced garlic it is likely to burn. If you cut the garlic into slices it cooks more thoroughly and without burning.
Do not keep your spices above your stove. They need to be located in a cool, dark area; if they are exposed to either warm conditions or a light source, they will not taste as good and your cooking will suffer as a result. Think about using one of the cabinets near your refrigerator as a storage space.
Use either a steaming or a stir-frying technique to cook your vegetables. These two methods help the vegetables retain both their color and their nutrients, providing your family with a healthier side dish that also looks attractive. Your children, in particular, are more likely to eat their vegetables if they look nice.
Juliana Horta playboy Professional tips provider.  If you would like to know more about cooking, do not be ashamed to go to cooking classes. These classes can give you some really good ideas to increase your cooking skills. Many locations offer cooking classes at reasonable prices and some even give you supplies that you can bring home with you.
Learning how to employ better cooking techniques is fun and useful. It can be just as enjoyable as eating! With any luck, this article has provided you with some great tips to improve your cooking skills. Cooking should be seen as a journey that doesn't really have an end.
