"—And you're sure it's normal?" Pure Vanilla asks, tensely holding his cup while Dark Cacao sat across from him. "Yes, Pure Vanilla" Dark Cacao sighed "Children have large imaginations. It's normal for them to see things in the mundane. Dark Choco was once convinced a suit of armor that had never once moved was alive, it's a common occurrence". Pure Vanilla nodded, looking into his glass. His staff watched carefully as he gingerly sipped the liquid to try and calm his nerves. "It's more than that, Dark Cacao. This wasn't some... spirit. It was him. They act like they can see and talk to him"

Dark Cacao looked up, his expression gone from calm to serious "You don't mean-?". "I do" Pure Vanilla confirmed solemnly "They swore they could see him. I- I know he isn't back, but- what if...". Pure Vanilla let out a shuddering sigh, and Dark Cacao tapped his glass as he thought. "I'll contact Elder Faerie. In the meantime, try to keep your mind clear. Your Kingdom needs you". "Yes.. yes, you're right.." Pure Vanilla said softly. "If he does come back, I'll fight with you" Dark Cacao said, leaning forward a bit "Don't face this alone, not when you have those who want to help you"

Pure Vanilla nodded, putting on his usual placating gentle smile "Of course, thank you". Just then, you'd waddled into the room, padding over with a slightly crumbled paper pressed against your side. "Papa! Papa!! C'see!" You called, running up to his side. He glanced to you with a grin "Oh, of course!". He leaned down, tilting his staff as well as he looked over the paper. You held it out proudly, grinning as you looked to him with shiney and hopeful eyes.

Pure Vanilla tried to school his expression, but his smile fell without his control. That same cold chill was back, striking him right in the soul. It was a messily scribbled drawing of you and him, something he'd always treasured. But this time, to your other side, you'd drawn a dark figure. One with mismatched blue eyes, and a wide smile. "Who- who is that..?" Pure Vanilla asked in a shaky voice. "Shadow Cookie!" You proudly declared "My friend!". Dark Cacao leaned over, very gently taking the picture from your hands so he could inspect it.

You began to feel worried as the two shared worried looks. This wasn't anything like the praise and cheers you usually got for your art, and you couldn't understand what was wrong. Dark Cacao suddenly stood "I'll- contact the Faeries. Immediately". "My drawing.." You sadly said, seeing it crumpled in the stoic king's fist. Dark Cacao loosened his hold, beginning to smooth it out as best he could "Ah- forgive me, little one. Here," he said, handing it back to you.

You still had a slight pout, helping to smooth it out as well. Dark Cacao gave hurried goodbyes before he went to leave. Pure Vanilla stood, seeing him out as he placed a hand on your back. "Is... is it bad, papa?" You asked. Pure Vanilla looked down, quickly putting on a smile "Not at all, my darling blue bird. It's wonderful. We were talking about fussy old King business, don't you worry". You felt a little better as he kissed your forehead, moving to walk back to your room "Okay..."

Once inside, you put your drawing down. It still looked pretty good to you, you couldn't piece together why it got the reaction it did. Maybe your new friend would like it! You sat down, grabbing the black and blue crayons as you began working on yet another drawing of them. While you hummed, Pure Vanilla listened on the other side of the door, sighing gently. Worry was practically choking him, but he tried to steady his breathing. This- this was okay. He could- if he just-... he needed that visit as soon as possible.

LA SQUADRA TUTORING YOU HEAD CANNONS(ft. Other headcannons too)

All are platonic

ft: Sorbet and Gelato too!

If you want a hc on how the bucci gang would tutor you heres a link!: Bucci gang tutoring reader

•formaggio

He's a highschool drop out. But that doesnt go to say he isnt smart, he's plenty resourceful and when it comes to sudden moments of distress he can calculate how to get his ass out of it in a second, so like street smart. Sometimes his parents wish he wouldve applied it to his studies before. Anyway back to tutoring, his ass would go like narancia but you would have to BEG him to teach him to feed his ego and really make you ask for it. 'I dunno im kinda busy ..' 'I think i'd be too smart for this you wont be able to keep up!'

it took 30 minutes to get him to teach you. When he does he cant understand jackshit whats on the paper but he tries to play it cool "uh 7x - 5 uh... Its 100000!". In the end your ass fails your homework or whatever you were studying for and when you go to formaggio about it he just laughs it off and maybe he would try to make up for it, maybe offering you to watch one of your favorite movies.

•Illuso:

You kidding?... He's a highschool graduate and didnt bother with college/post academics. Like formaggio he needs a beg to feed his ego in order for him to actually accept to teach you and... 90% of him tutoring is just him insulting you and his sarcastic remarks for each example question. Even when you get an answer right the first try he goes 'WOWWWW yOu GoT ThAt RiGht!' in the most annoying tone that makes you wanna hit him so hard. When you apply it to ur homework during the session, you get half of the questions right but if you apply it to your studies after... You just get too annoyed and end up craming them thanks to illuso's snide remarks. You swear you can still hear him when you pick up that pen and paper.

•Ghiaccio:

You now know the past present and future lessons by heart mind and soul... But at what cost?.

Ghiaccio is a STEM graduate who avoided the Humanities course or related courses like the plague during college and purposely cutted at english/literature class back in highschool.

He's pretty smart but he's impatient. When you ask he's annoyed but he reluctantly agrees. During your study sesh even if you cry and plead you wont be able to leave until you know everything about not just the lesson BUT THE SUBJECT AS A WHOLE (assuming its math/sciences). Even if you run away he will freeze you down.

Ghiaccio:"You started this you finish it. SIT YOUR ASS DOWN"

•Melone:

'IM NOT A CHILD DAMNIT!"-you

A lot of people think he's a med school drop out. They're kinda right Let me word this better, he technically didn't drop out or turn to the mafia right away he just switched paths during his time at College. Turns out he didnt want to be a Clinical Embryologist but maybe something simplier... A teacher and tried getting a bachelors degree in early childhood education.

(Which is funny because even with the career change he still landed himself in the mafia.)

And even when he changed he didnt finish that either!

But that explains why he's really good at teaching and also given his stand he also has to do a lot of teaching. Convincing him isn't that hard he just agrees and is actually really happy about it. Side note though you now feel like a child. You appreciate how he dumbs it down for you but if you're not the kind of person who likes being babied you'd be very irritated in this teaching sesh. When youre done you understand the lesson a lot! But again if youre the type to get annoyed that you are treated like a child you'll feel a little pissy.

•Prosciutto :

This is no longer math its the MILITARY. He probably completed college, what course? He'd never say, though rumors say its something in economics/marketing but what's been confirmed so far has nothing to do with what he took in college/university just what he did.

They say that he was an intern for a modelling company as a side hustle and thats it. So its not sure what he pursued.

Back to tutoring! When you approach him he gladly accepts but you'd have to schedule. When the time comes you find yourself doing push ups while Prosciutto says 'Whats the answer to 1x²+x-3!?' and you'll have to shout back at the answer. When youre not exercising expect him beside you watching your every move on the desk. The plus side he gives little hints to the answer, to slight hand movements, to mouthing it out.

By the end of tutor lesson you now know the lesson better! And now have Prosciutto as your designated tutor so youre stuck with him! Be prepared to meet him again when you get a low score though, turns out he found a way to keep tabs on your class..

How? We dont know either.

•Pesci:

Pesci had to be pulled out because their parents couldn't fund his education any further, and needed him to help out with work (fishing) in order to bring more money to the table.

Due to this Pesci is a little insecure about it so he's really hesitant to accept to tutor you! He's very nervous so sometimes he gets back on his word when he's pointing things out and going 'Okay so this is.. Wait holdon i might be wrong!'. Study sesh is a mess and you cant even get mad at the guy he's trying his best. Even so you still thank Pesci and Pesci says that he didnt help at all and you say its alright and he did help. In the end you study on your own and get good marks you go to Pesci and say that he's tutoring helped you out to make him feel better!

•Risotto:

"Risotto that's too in depth! I get it now, we've been on the same topic for the past hour!"-you

You thought it'll be really boring but... HE CANT JUST STOP TALKING AND TALKINGGGG!?...

Risotto is a highschool graduate and like Illuso didnt bother with college but didnt have the same motives thinking its useless or anything, but he already knew where he would end up and continue to do the rest of his life. Even so he is really well red and still is book smart! So theres no wonder how he knows certain stuff. When something you don't know happens he will info dump on how and why the phenomenon happened and end off the sentence with "... I read it in a book once.."

When you ask he nods and agrees, but like Prosciutto, you gotta schedule since he's usually busy. You thought it'll be a normal study sesh and its just gonna be boring because at surface level Risotto is a very quiet man. But no! He wasnt nonchalant! Motherfuck wont stop yapping and introducing topics you haven't studied yet either that or he's over simplified the equation its been an hour! to the point you cant even answer he just continues and continues and continues. If you tell him about it though he slows down and matches your pace, this kinda shows his dorky side and how passionate he is in studying. Dont worry he's a very observant man so he knows what parts you have a hard time with and tries to teach you but he just gets caught up in the moment he goes.. and....

In the end you barely remember shit just the moment of surprise on how Risotto tutored you.

if you're doing homework you got all marks but you have no idea what you were tutored about.

•Gelato:

Go to sorbet.

I like the head cannon that Gelato and sorbet were ex military but I think only Gelato is ex military. If you come to him for tutoring he just refers you to sorbet and wont budge at all and if youre really persistent he gets real annoyed so expect a bruise and not even getting sorbet to tutor you after. All cause you pissed off gelato.

•Sorbet:

You gotta pay a small, (BIG) fee first. Sorbet graduated marketing and economics yeah thats right he got a joint degree thats why he's really good at money or at least knows better on how to use it. Thats why gelato tells you to go to sorbet instead because this is the type of stuff he's specialized in. But he is not a good teacher he cant even explain it properly the whole study sesh is you being confused as hell, and the cherry on top of this disaster he gets mad when the answer is 0 (EVEN THOUGH ITS THE CORRECT ANSWER) but he thought its money somehow. When youre done he goes 'There ya go✨!'

and you dont know jack shit.

Authors note: No doodle unfortunately but this one's pretty Lengthy and features everyone from la squadra!!!!! I based Risotto's on his fight with dia and dop, with Pesci's I wanted to make a parallel between him and Bruno in a way. I also wanted to write more about Gelato and Sorbet but with the little we know of them I just winged it.. What do yall think?

Should I make little doodles of these too? Do you guys have requests? Feel free to tell me!

[camiekitties]

I really love Stratt and Grace's relationship and deeply dislike when people outright ship them because i feel like what they'd have wouldn't be platonic or romantic love, it would just be having a person that understands you like nobody else. They would never, under ANY circumstances, fall in love!!! STOP!!!! Ryland is AROACE and, in my eyes, Stratt kisses WOMEN. STOP IT. Even if this weren't the case, I'd dislike the idea of them falling in romantic love. The care they'd have for eachother (whether in canon or in another life where the literal fate of the planet didn't cause so much tension between them) is much deeper than. In canon, they both have the same sense of responsibility, and the same obligation to persevere for everyone's sake. And they do. For everyone's sake. In a more normal alternate universe, they'd still have that same sense of care, and deep, genuine relationship with eachother. They'd be eachother's person to go to whenever they need input on absolutely anything, and they'd go to cafés together, and they'd laugh together. Probably even sleep on the same couch. Or drink from the same cup. But it wouldn't be romantic. I don't like that people can't fathom having this close, intimate relationship with someone else that doesn't involve sexual or romantic feelings. Or even PLATONIC feelings. It can just be plain Love for someone else. Love doesn't always have to be dumbed down into a category. You can just care about someone or something with your whole soul.

[singularity-sam]

We should deromanticize holding hands and hugging. I never understood why something as casual and simple like holding someone's hand is the de facto way to show a romantic relationship in media. Many cultures around the world do these things in platonic ways, so why can't that be the case everywhere? Like, why can't I hug my friends without people thinking I'm "in love" with them? Anyway, as an aro ace person, it's hard to be close to someone without everyone else thinking that you're automatically in love with them.
