are you telling me you're not living for the salmon kitchen?

I was going to say the peach kitchen isn't so bad, but then I saw that they PAINTED THE 1800s BUTLER PANTRY and I cannot forgive.

Gonna respond the only way I know how: with a couple more images.

But there’s so much more.  And if that’s not enough of... whatever this color is (because... now between “peach” and “salmon” it... it seems to be some horror show of both depending on how the light hits it):

B E H O L D.

...Seriously, if the house didn’t have a few signs that it’s plenty old enough to need a huge overhaul, it would be just weird enough to grab and... uh.  ..........Start over.

Headcanons for Ravus or Safay, please? Whichever is easier tonight :D

I will pick Ravus!

Headcanon A:  realistic  -- He loves his sister but he is so FRUSTRATED with her and her tolerance and communication with Noctis.  He tried to destroy the book that they communicate with a couple of times but a new one would just appear in the kerchief of Umbra who would growl at him and go on its merry way.  

It was the worst feeling in the world to deal with a sister that didn’t understand that Regis KILLED their mother and left them behind to save himself and Noctis.

It made his bitterness more bitter than bitters.

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious  -  Still young, he tried to steal a ship and run off to avenge his mother ... he failed miserably and Areana turned him in, calling him a “cute monster” and go play in the flowers.

He really hated her for a long while too because he thought he was so close to getting his revenge and saving his sister.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends  -- Ravus still has the clothes his mother died in.  He remembers her protecting him.  They were never cleaned.  They were sealed and still thick with her blood.  He would hold the clothes when he would start to doubt the path that he had chosen and remember that his mother died because of a selfish king.

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.  --  Ravus would not have been consumed by the demon if he had removed his arm... but he felt to weak to be without the majitec.  If he had understood the nature of his arm, he may have been able to fight along side Noctis... eventually.

Happy Christmas/Holidays/Celebrations to yooooooou, @landofdoom! As apart of the #ffxvsmallsecretsanta project! (How come I can’t tag!? DDD: )

I recalled how much you liked Ravus and the infamous Safay Roth as a ship, so why not doodle them both for you? C: You’re a sweet and fun person, and I’m always so glad to see your name appear in my activity feed. I hope you have a splendid holiday and a super happy new year!

Pardon the weirdly lighted drawing, by the way. The downfall of doing traditional art in a dark room. v.v

Happy Birthday, Schala! :D

Thank you, Crab! I am hoping for a good one filled with games and food! <3

omg, is it possible to get a pic of the paczki recipe? I'm lucky enough to be in a weird area of Ohio that gets paczki every Mardi Gras (???) but ONLY then. One day, I've gotta learn to do it myself.

This is one page out of like three of just paczki.  My bf is also from Ohio, that’s how I became addicted to them.  I’m glad you’re only supposed to have them once a year, otherwise I’d be dead.

My best guess is the missing gutter outside is indicative of a big-ass roof leak that led to the ceiling collapsing in spots. And hooray--black mold! Yikes. That house would have to be gutted to the studs w/all new drywall, to be safe. After, y'know, a whole new roof.

I’m lead to wonder if this was ultimately one of those “Oh it’s just a leak, no big deal” things becoming one night of absolute house apocalypse because that’s what I’m getting out of these pictures.

That and the idea that it was once an absolutely beautiful house in a perfect location but now perhaps the only way to save it is fire.

My first thought was “hey I know where that is!” and then I looked at the photos and just went “...EW.” ($140k my ass.)

I would suggest you attempt to stay as far away from this house as humanly possible for a wide variety of reasons.

For kitchen disasters: RavusxSafay, and whichever inspires more, between "you can't cook with that after it's been in your mouth" and "that's it, I'm ordering pizza", please :D

I can always count on you to send me a wonderful prompt!

Characters:  Ravus/SafayRating:  TeenContents:  Kissing and annoying little sister.

Ravus had spent a lot of money at the market.  It was the first crop of Ulwatt berries of the year and they were always so costly, but it was well worth having the sweetest berries of the crop.

He knew it was nostalgic to want to make the tarts that his mother loved.  He bought everything that he needed to make them and had the time set aside so that they would be still warm after supper was cooked.

He hadn’t made them for Safay yet and he wanted to treat his partner... boy friend ... he was still confused as to what they were but he knew that he was someone he wanted to make happy.

He stuffed the newly bought prizes into the fridge and went to have a shower before he went about prepping supper and dessert.  

What he did not expect was that when he came out of the shower feeling relaxed and excited for his evening plans he was alarmed to see his sister and Safay on his couch.

Even more alarmed to see that they each had a large bowl of his expensive berries with cream and sugar that looked half devoured by the two conspirators. 

“What are you two doing?”

“Oh,” Luna said and smiled at him.  “I found Safay lurking the halls and invited him in.  He said that you were going to make supper for him!”  She was obviously way to happy about this.

Safay put another spoon full of berries in his mouth.

“I was,” he emphasised the word, “going to make some tarts but it appears you have both decided to ruin my plans.”  They both slowly put their spoons down.  “I can’t cook them if you already had them in your mouth.”

His agitation rose at the thought of how his sister ruined his date by eating his berries.

Safay’s green eyes grew big as he looked between the both of them.  “Oh,” was all that he was able to say.

Luna jumped up.  “Oh!  I’m so sorry!  I thought they were just for snacking.  I shall go to the market and fetch some more and help you with your date!  Pardon me, Safay.  I fear I put us in an awkward position.”  She bowed politely and then scurried out the door.

He watched her and it didn’t ease his agitation.  

What did was Safay standing from the couch with his large eyes and without a word put his hands on his cheeks and kissed him.  

He tasted like the Ulwatt berries.  And they tasted better in his kiss than in any tart that could be made.

For the "send a ship and I'll tell you...", Ravus and Safay, plz?

who’s the werewolf and who’s the hunter

Ravus would be the hunter and Safay the werewolf...  

who’s the mermaid and who’s the fisherman

Safay would be the merman/maid and Ravus would be the fishermen...  he would be very confused as he pulled out the torn net that only contained one very large and angry catch.

who’s the witch and who’s the familiar

Safay is the familiar (cat eyes... ) and Ravus is the witch.  Not a good witch but still a witch.  He would get better with the help of his familiar.

who’s the barista and who’s the coffee addict

Ravus would be the bored barista and Safay just needs one more shot to make it through the week....  and he won’t need one tomorrow because he is going to go to bed early tonight.

But the bored odd coloured eye man behind the counter was worth the caffeine overdose.

who’s the professor and who’s the TA

Safay is the professor who is trying to make sure that Ravus stays focus on his studies instead of his ass.

who’s the knight and who’s the prince(ss)

Ravus is the knight and Safay is the prince.... the prince that doesn’t need a knight but does think that it is cute that Ravus thinks that he needs to be rescued.

who’s the teacher and who’s the single parent

Ravus is the single parent, raising his daughter on his own...  as a teenager, his daughter is handful.  He had to come to school because his daughter refused to dissect a frog. The talk with the biology teacher was enlightening.

who’s the writer and who’s the editor

Safay is the writer who is working on a story and Ravus is the ruthless editor... but he believes in Safay’s story so he is so hard on him.
