FIZZ J. ROSE 21. DEFENSE. HERO what if leonard hofstadter had boobs and was into plants? well, i have your answer in the form of a 5'1" nature loving, professional meditator and yoga enthusiast nerd: me! and if you didn't get that reference, i'm sorry but we can't be friends. unless you let me make you my dirty popcorn, pour you an elderflower fizz (yes, i'm lame enough to name it after myself) and let me educate you on nerdiness. ps. i'm a mother to a painstakenly loved bonsai tree. i know, i'd be jealous over how ridiculously cool i am too.

TEXT MESSAGE ✉️ FIZZLEIGH

RALEIGH: It's okay. You're mad. I deserve it.

RALEIGH: I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.

RALEIGH: Even if I kind of meant what I said.

RALEIGH: Which makes it worse so I'm going to go jump off a bridge (into the water)

(A delay)

FIZZ: What do you mean that you kind of meant it?

TEXT MESSAGE ✉️ FIZZLEIGH

RALEIGH: Hi.

RALEIGH: Can we please talk about what happened.

RALEIGH: I know you're mad. You should be mad.

FIZZ: I shouldn't be mad. I'm not really mad. Not at you exactly. It wasn't exactly your fault.

FIZZ: I guess I just hoped that even if your brain was hijacked by a horrible villain, you'd not make me uncomfortable. But perhaps that was too much to ask.

FIZZ: Other than that? I don't think there's much to talk about, Raleigh. You should be getting some rest.

While I’m aware I’m part of the minority avoiding conflict at all cost, may I offer some advice? We could all benefit from taking a moment for a few deep breaths and self evaluation. Are you where you want to be in life? Are you treating others how you would like to be treated? Are you drinking enough water? And would anyone like some matcha brownies or some douglas fir ice tea?

So, now we have creepy as hell clowns lurking around Phoenix. I saw one the other night when I was heading home from a friend’s house. Thankfully, all they did was just stood there. But that was pretty creepy though. I don’t think I want to witness that again at all. 

[fizzroses-blog]

I know it probably doesn’t help to remind you, but most clowns actually attend a very strict and intense university where they learn their craft making them an extremely hardworking artist. Unfortunately, a few people have ruined them for the masses with their sinister tendencies. As long as the clowns aren’t the latter kind, I’m sure we’re all okay and may see balloon animals more often than usual?

I’ve been waiting for an hour for this movie to go to a commercial so I can go to the bathroom, but I didn’t realize until said movie was over that I was watching Netflix this whole time. I’m not sure if I should chalk it up to stupidity or laziness, although I’m pretty sure it’s the latter. But enough about me, what are you lovely people up to these days?

[fizzroses-blog]

I can honestly say hand on heart that I have experienced the same thing. But ashamedly? It was with a TV show and I only realised after Netflix shamed me with the “are you still watching?” message. Was it a good movie? I’ve been meaning to get back on Netflix and add more things to my list so recommendations are definitely appreciated! Honestly, my life is boring so I wouldn’t want to put you through my horticultural dilemmas.

[spiderjackie-blog]

I did, too, and I hate it. I wish there was an option to go back to what I had before. I’m not offended because I definitely haven’t been trying to call you or anything, but if those energy balls ended up near me somehow, I wouldn’t be opposed. 

[fizzroses-blog]

I suppose we all just need to embrace the future and get used to it before iOS 11 hits us in the face, huh? I’ll make sure a little gift bag of them ends up in your possession somehow. Guilt free desserts are becoming my specialty.

[noahpuckermaniac]

Cashew and date balls? You should apologize for those terrible apology bribes. 

[fizzroses-blog]

They’re healthy and full of nature’s candy, what is there to apologise for?

[marinacomaro-archive-blog]

Hey, I haven’t even updated my phone yet, so it’s not like you’re the last one to hop on the iOS 10 train. Is it really that much of a change? You’d actually be surprised though, there was an animal outbreak a few days ago. Crazy shit.

[fizzroses-blog]

For once I’m not the last on the train, that’s definitely a surprise. Honestly, I can see the appeal and the user functions aren’t bad. I’m terrible with technology changes. So I’d recommend it if you’ve got the time to figure out how it works? Or a friendly technology person to guide you through the changes. Or you’re smarter than I was. I know, I know. They ruined my young root vegetable patch. Although I can’t be upset, they were clearly unsure of their actions.

A list of 5+ headcanons for your character!

Fizz will never be seen in pants other than during her yoga sessions. She’s very self conscious about almost every aspect of her body apart from her arms and therefore chooses to wear maxi skirts and maxi dresses almost every single day.

Fizz rarely wears any make up or does her hair - this can make her look a little disheveled at times since her hair has a natural wave/curl to it, but she believes there is no helping her appearance.

Fizz has trouble sleeping, which is why she relies so heavily on meditation and yoga to ease her mind.

While Fizz technically has incredible control over her powers, she struggles with actually accessing her powers regularly.

Fizz absolutely adores seafood, but has sworn never to eat it again after meeting Raleigh.

Fizz is very into DIY and being creative. While she isn’t a talented artist or great at sewing, she often alters her own clothing or makes little gifts to accompany her botanical gifts.

Fizz volunteers a lot for soup kitchens, local allotment farms and retirement homes and uses her powers to provide fresh produce for those in need.

Happy Birthday, Cassiopeia!

I hope you have a phenomenal day and are showered in love from all those surrounding you. You are deserving of it all a thousand times over.

All the blessed wishes,

Fizz.

[fizzroses-blog]

@kweencass: @fizzroses What?! No, not at all!!! I just suck 😃

@fizzroses: @kweencass I disagree strongly there. But I sense that your opinion isn't going to change.

@fizzroses: @kweencass I hope everything is okay. And if not and you'd like someone to talk to? I'm great at listening. And making tea.

[fizzroses-blog]

@kweencass: @fizzroses Thanks. That's nice.

@fizzroses: @kweencass I'm sorry, am I bothering you?

[fizzroses-blog]

@kweencass: @fizzroses I feel generally unworthy of your earth's amazing gifts. Peonies are really pretty tho.

@fizzroses: @kweencass You deserve more then this Earth's gifts, Cassiopeia. You're worthy of a lot of love in the form of physical entities.

@fizzroses: @kweencass I'll make sure you're showered in botanical affection. That's my secondary goal.

[fizzroses-blog]

@kweencass: @fizzroses You're always on the friend list!

@fizzroses: @kweencass Phew!!! Just checking! I didn't want to assume anything. How do you feel about peonies?

[fizzroses-blog]

I realise this is probably highly pathetic, but I recently took the plunge and updated my phone to iOS 10. I know, you’re asking why it took so long? Honestly, I’m not a technology person. I try to be, but I do better with a field of wildflowers than I do with a brand new update. And so, it honestly took me forever to figure out how to even unlock my phone after that. So I want to apologise if I’ve ignored anyone recently, I didn’t mean to. And as an apology, I’ve made some delicious cashew and date energy balls to go home with anyone who I offended. And to also celebrate the fact that - thankfully - the city seems to be back to normal!

[fizzroses-blog]

@kweencass: Party is back on. Friends only. Don't come if we're not friends. Can't wait to see all my friends on Friday!! ☺️

@fizzroses: Am I on the friend list? Just asking for if I should pick out a bouquet or not. For reasons.

What is your favorite thing about your power?

My favourite thing? I don’t think I can narrow it down to just one thing. I know a lot of people may think that agrokinesis is a fairly boring or useless power, but I think those people are a little narrow minded. My power literally is giving life. Plants are living organisms with extraordinary abilities. Medicine? Most of it, if not all of it, has roots in plants. The food you eat all stems from the lower food chain of plants. And you have to admit that plants are stunning. So I suppose I love that about my power. The fact that I can, on a good day at least, produce root vegetables and fruits for the hungry and provide what I can to the world… That makes me a little nervous with the pressure it could put on my shoulders, but very proud that I have been given the ability to do so.

Selfishly, however, I think my favourite thing is the connection it gives me to my childhood and family life. When I first developed my powers, my dad was there through all the confusion and teaching me how to channel my energies. And that’s one thing I will always cherish deeply.

After all, when you think about it, having a power that is 90% non destructive, earth rooted and could potential - if I practiced it enough - end famines? That’s pretty cool. But sharing that with someone who was and always be so special to me, that’s even better.
