The Springtime Trio @springtimetrio-shipper713 - Tumblr Blog

I’d like to ask for the ot3 content for Snorkmaiden x Snufkin x Moomin please. Who do you think would be the first to disapprove of their relationship and what other challenges do you think they might face when they are finally together and how do you think they would handle it?

So the first person who comes to mind is Mrs. Fillyjonk. Not that she generally approves of anything anyone does anyway, but she certainly would say some not-so-nice and snide things about them. When it came to Snorkmaiden, especially, Mrs. Fillyjonk would be “concerned” about her reputation, and shouldn’t her brother do something about that?

Snork, too, might not be the most supportive at first. It’s not that he would be mean about it, but he would wonder if this sort of relationship would even work for his sister, who is prone to jealousy.

Beyond that, I think they mostly would just face a lot of confusion. Everybody is used to mymbles running around and not settling with any one lover, but a closed poly triad? Moominpappa especially is rather taken off guard by the whole thing. Moominmamma, on the other hand, accepts it pretty much immediately. She can see with her own eyes how happy her son, Snorkmaiden, and Snufkin are, and that’s enough for her to be satisfied.

Explaining their arrangement to people can also be a bit of a sore subject with Snufkin. He’s not very comfortable giving out personal details of their relationship, or putting labels on what they share. He tries to protest that he doesn’t care if people just think he’s just a platonic third wheel to their relationship, but Moomin and Snorkmaiden don’t accept that. They don’t want anyone thinking that Snufkin is any less important to them just because he leaves every winter and needs more alone time than most.

Though that, too, changes over time. The more comfortable Snufkin feels around them, the more he feels like he’s still getting “alone time”, even when they’re around. They become a bit of an extension of himself, so that having them nearby no longer drains his social energy.

Another challenge they face is the everyday clashes of needs and wants. Thankfully, they have Moominpappa and Moominmamma as relationship role models, who have learned to have honest conversations and compromise for one another. Negotiating compromises that work for three individuals can be a bit more of a challenge, sure, but over time they learn how to navigate those conversations.

Snorkmaiden in particular is very practical when it comes to matters of the heart. Coupled with Moomin’s open honesty and Snufkin’s out-of-the-box thinking, they all manage to weather through any disagreements that come up.

Thanks for asking!!!

Too-Ticky began to explain. “You see, I’ve heard that you can communicate to someone far away if you try hard to concentrate all your feelings and thoughts you have towards that certain person. It’s not exactly the same as talking with someone but it still is some way to communicate with them.”

“Really? How’s it exactly done?”Snorkmaiden asked.

“It’s just as I said,” Too-Ticky began to explain. “Concentrate all your thoughts and feeling towards the person who is far from you. But I suppose in details, you guys just concentrate all your love that you two have for Snufkin and imagine sending it right towards him wherever he may be right now. It might not really work to be honest but what’s the harm in trying, right?”

“But if it really works...” Moomin started to think. “That would be great!” He said cheerfully. He grabbed hold of Snorkmaiden’s paws excitedly. “This means we can share our joy with Snufkin which would be the closest thing we have to sharing the good news with him.”

“I’d love to try,” Snorkmaiden said happily too. “It might even be fun.”

“Let’s give it a try then,” Moomin said as he pulled Snorkmaiden closer to him and nuzzled close to her. Snorkmaiden happily did the same.

The two stayed there quietly as they thought about the joy they got from hearing that all three of them would be parents soon and the love they had for Snufkin and how happy they were to have him in their lives.

Far in the south, where the sun was shining down everywhere, Snufkin was fishing when suddenly he thought of his two loves back in Moomin Valley and smiled.

Too-Tick smiled at the two. “No need to worry, you two, in fact, there’s only the need to be happy. Snorkmaiden’s symptoms are quite unpleasant for her, but they actually are signs of good news.”

Snorkmaiden and Moomin’s ear perked up. They were definitely curious about what this good news was.

“Well, we are definitely relieved that there is no danger to Snorkmaiden,” Moomin said, “But we are now curious by what good thing this all means.”

“Well,” Too-Ticky started. “Let me say that I’m glad to be the one to tell you this. Your lovely family of three will be having a new addition.”

“A new addition?” Moomin asked.

Snorkmaiden suddenly started to realize what Too-Ticky was talking about. “Wait. Do you mean-?” She started to ask but couldn’t really finish.

“Yes,” Too-Ticky confirmed. “Snorkmaiden is pregnant. Snufkin and the two of you are going to be parents.”

Both Moomin and Snorkmaiden were speechless. The two looked at each other and then started to smile.

“Snorkmaiden!” Moomin shouted happily.

“Moomin!” Snorkmaiden cheered as well.

The two rubbed noses together happily and started to embrace happily.

Too-Ticky watched their joyful expressions and couldn’t help but feel happy too.

Moomin opened the door to surprisingly see Snorkmaiden! She was awake but from what he saw she was not feeling well. She was kneeling close to the ground and holding a bucket close to her looking ill and in pain.

Moomin quickly dropped the fish he had caught with Too-Ticky and rushed to her side. “Snorkmaiden! What’s happened? Are you okay?!”

“Moomin?” Snorkmaiden spoke softly as she slowly raised her head to see her husband. “Oh, Moomin,” she said quietly as she tried to rest her head upon Moomin’s arm. “I don’t feel too well.”

Springtime Trio ~ New Arrival

🍃💛🍃💛 Chapter One 💛🍃💛🍃💛🍃

A chill seemed to have brushed its hand against Snufkin’s face, which caused him to awaken right away. He slowly began to make out his surroundings and saw his two loves lying next to him sound asleep. Moomin and Snorkmaiden laid there quietly with only soft breathing heard from them. He smiled at how peaceful they looked and how lovely they were. He always loved looking at them, especially when he had them both so close to him.

Winter had already started but he wanted to stay just a little longer to make sure he left his loves peaceful and safe in hibernation. By the looks of them, they have gone into hibernation and would awaken again in the Spring. He chuckled at the thought of actually coming back early for Spring to sneak back into bed with them and have them awaken to see him as if he never left at all. It was a lovely idea but sometimes, he sadly admitted, he would miscalculate the first day of Spring and actually come late. Luckily for him, Snorkmaiden and especially Moomin would wait for him and trust him completely to come back and be with them once again.

He sighed at the thought of hugging them and kissing them again, but shook away the temptation to awaken them just to do that. Hibernation was important to them, after all, and he didn’t want to risk awakening them for the whole cold and bitter winter, even though Moomin has said that he has been waking up a bit more earlier than usual. Still, he thought it best to leave his loves to their wonderful dreams and quietly get ready for his trip. He’d make sure to leave the doors and windows tightly locked and ensure that his loves had an extra blanket to avoid any more chills creeping up on them. He quietly creeped out of the side of the bed (luckily he had stayed on the left side of the bed instead of the middle even though he liked being cuddled by Moomin and Snorkmaiden at the same time but still, this way was better to avoid waking them up).

Snufkin got his bag and checked to make sure everything was there. He then closed the windows tightly and found the extra blanket and covered them, happily knowing they’d be safe and warm now. He grabbed his usual clothing and decided it was now time to change and finally be on his way to where the sun would be shining on him again. As he went to pick up his clothes, he heard a sleepy voice say his name.

“Snufkin?”

He quickly turned around to see it was Moomin.

“Oh I’m so sorry,” Snufkin began to apologize. “I didn’t want to wake you. I’m just getting ready to be off for the winter. It’s already starting to snow as you can see.” He looked to the direction of the window and saw that the snowflakes were still falling gently against the window.

Moomin looked at the window too and saw Snufkin was indeed correct. Winter was here. His hibernation and Snufkin’s journey were about to begin. It always left him a bit of heartache knowing Snufkin was to leave but he soon remembered Snorkmaiden was here with him to keep him company and remind him that Snufkin would be back like always.

“Winter,” Moomin began to speak as he rose a bit from the bed. “Time always seems to pass so quickly when I’m with both of you.” He looked at Snorkmaiden and saw that she was in her deep sleep now and still looked ever so beautiful. Snufkin could hear a hint of sadness in Moomin’s voice which made him feel a bit of heartache as well.

“Time will pass by quickly for winter as well. You’ll see. Snorkmaiden and you can keep each other company, be warm together, maybe even share the same dreams every so often and when Spring is here, the two of you can make me feel very welcomed when I finally come back like you two always do.” Snufkin smiled at that thought.

“Yes you are right,” he looked to Snufkin and smiled. “May I at least say goodbye to you before you are on your way?” Snufkin smiled back.

“Of course my dear wonderful Moomin.” Snufkin walked up close to Moomin, gently touched his face, and gave Moomin a kiss. He waited to separate since he wanted to make sure this kiss was a long one for Moomin to have in his memory throughout the whole winter. When he stopped, he looked into Moomin’s eyes. He could see the love Moomin has for him and it made him overjoyed. He looked at Snorkmaiden and gently grabbed onto her hand. He wished she was awake too so he could say goodbye in the same way but he had another idea to make sure she would know that he loved her just as much.

“Moomin, I’m going to give you another kiss but I need you to give it to Snorkmaiden when she awakes so she can know that she is in my thoughts as well.”

Moomin nodded his head. “Oh she knows Snufkin. She is the one that reminds me after all that you keep us in your mind and heart throughout your journey but, yes, a kiss would be a nice extra reminder for her.”

Snufkin chuckled and went in for another kiss. It was equally long and Snufkin held onto to Snorkmaiden’s hand hoping that maybe a bit of the love he felt for her now would be felt by her in her dreams. He separated from Moomin and smiled at him. He indeed felt lucky to have these two in his life. To not only make a goodbye more reassuring but also sweet and comforting for the days he would be without them and missing them.

“Goodbye, Moomin.” He said as he let go of Snorkmaiden’s hand and Moomin’s face. “Sleep well this winter. I’ll see you again in Spring.”

Moomin gave a soft yawn. “Goodbye Snufkin. Please be careful on your journey. And remember Snorkmaiden and I love you ever so much.”

“I know wonderful Moomin,” Snufkin watched as Moomin laid back down and cuddled close to Snorkmaiden while holding her hand and giving her a soft kiss on the head before finally closing his eyes and beginning his long sleep. “I love you two, too. Ever so much.”

When he noticed Moomin was indeed asleep he continued on with changing and once he was done, he put on his traveling bag, took one more look as his two loves sleeping soundly, smiled and closed the bedroom door.

As he walked downstairs to the entrance, he looked around the home seeing that the furniture was covered up for winter as it should be and everything was quiet and even starting to look gloomy. He remembered the times during spring and how much different it truly looked with the sun shining through the windows. But time did indeed past quickly and spring was over. Hopefully time would pass quickly for winter as well.

He exited the house and locked the door. He began walking the trail and looked back once more at the home his loves and him owned all together. Yes, this was his home and he would always be welcomed here.

He began walking again. Smiling at the thought of Snorkmaiden and Moomin waiting for him with the sun shining on all three of them and happily being in each other’s arms again. With that lovely thought still playing in his head, he smiled on his way out of Moominvalley.

Moomin headcanon thing please? Do you think Snorkmaiden/Snufkin/Moomin will want to start a family together? They can still be a family just the three of them but if they wanted to, what would that be like?

Thanks for the question!! I’ve actually thought a lot about this

So first things first— I imagine Moomin and Snorkmaiden would eventually build their own home on the other side of the river, with a large backyard where Snufkin pitches his tent for three out of four months of the year. He still travels during winter, while Moomin and Snorkmaiden hibernate

However, Moomin starts waking up a month or two early each year, like he does in the stories. He usually spends this time with Little My, Too Ticky, Sorry-oo and the skiing hemulen who visits every winter

One winter, though, Moomin comes home from a day of winter activities to find that Snorkmaiden has also awoken early, because she’s got morning sickness

In other words, they hadn’t exactly planned on having kids, but it happened, and Moomin and Snorkmaiden are happy

Though they do become worried that Snufkin will feel left out, like a third wheel parent. So they wait together for Snufkin’s arrival, preparing him fresh coffee and his favorite meal, and after letting him settle him, break the news to him slowly and gently, with lots of cuddles and kisses in between

It sure surprises Snufkin, and he’s definitely nervous. Based on how far along Snorkmaiden is, they determine that the baby is probably Moomin’s, and that does make Snufkin feel a little like he might be invading the family they wish to create

But thankfully Snorkmaiden is a smart young woman who has come to understand how Snufkin thinks, and Moomin is very perceptive when it comes to emotions, and so they immediately assure Snufkin that they want him to be the baby’s third primary guardian, not just an uncle or godfather. And sandwiched between the two great loves of his life, Snufkin ponders that over very carefully, and decides he’d quite like to be a father

They may or not have another child after that, once they get into the swing of parenting. It’d be cute if the first child was a girl moomin or boy snork, and the second child was a mumrik like Snufkin

(Meanwhile Moominmamma becomes Moominnanna, and Moominpappa stays Moominpappa, but Snorkmaiden becomes Snorkmamma and Moomintroll becomes Moomindad, and as for Snufkin? He decides to just be “pops”, because he likes the sound of it)

Thanks again for asking!! I had a lot of fun thinking about that
