The night before the Starlight Solstice, Peach is gifted a nutcracker—an odd choice for a young woman, even from the eccentric Professor E. Gadd. When she goes to sleep that night, however, it becomes clear that the doll is more than a holiday gift. As Peach finds herself roped into the chaos of a plot far larger and dangerous than what she could ever imagine, she begins to wonder how much more there is to the Nutcracker and his quest—and whether the journey will ultimately lead her back home.
Up late on Christmas Eve-turned-Day? Finally got home from a late shift or some other thing? Do you like the Nutcracker (or at least the Barbie version of it)?
Well, this might be the fic you'll need to suffer through holiday lunch (or dinner) while your asshole uncle goes off about something stupid. Or maybe it's the gift awaiting you after a day spent with those you love and cherish. Whatever the situation may be, me and @peaches2217 have got you covered, with the first act out of three ready to read and reread to your heart's content. The goal is to get all three parts up by Three Kings' Day.
Alan, we are so fucked.
Let's do this.
C4 for Peach? 👉🏻👈🏻

A Peach for Peaches 🧚♀️
Where do I even start? From a fandom perspective, I adore your lengthy headcanon posts — I love getting cozy and reading them all in one sitting! You’ve got so many incredible ideas, like the one with Luaisy and music/dancing (my personal favorite), and as far as your fics proper to, my favorites are Anything for Him and Bubbles of Love. (I especially loved the Estopa reference in the latter! An extra little stamp of yours.)
But moreover, you’re one of the kindest, most sincere people I have ever met. You’ve been through a lot, and yet every time you’re here, you’re supporting everyone around you and being a friend to all you encounter. I’m honored to know you, and I’m even more honored to call you my friend. 🫂🫂🫂
My dear friend, I am SO HAPPY to know that my post of Luigi serenading Daisy is your favorite of all my headcanon posts!! Gosh, it truly means A LOT because I absolutely LOVED writing that one 🥹🥹 You know I'm a BIG Luaisy fan so really, I'm beyond HONORED that you loved this post so much!! And awww I love to imagine you getting cozy with your adorable kitties and reading my headcanon posts, and more importantly, enjoying them!! Such a sweet image 🥰💖
It warms my heart to know that Anything for Him and Bubbles of Love are your favorite stories from me!! The first one really has become so popular and I would've never expected the amount of love it got, and I can only thank you over and over again for being there and reading and supporting my very first fic, dear friend 🥹🥹🫂🫂 And it really means so much to me that you enjoyed Bubbles of Love!! I'm seriously HONORED because the way you write Mareach is so special and sweet and tender and BEAUTIFUL, so the fact that you liked the way I wrote them means so much more than I could ever express!! 💖💖💖
AND OH MY GOD. I was so happy when you caught the Estopa reference!!!!!! 😄😄😄 You know I LOVE this band, and their lyrics often make me think of the way Mario is so in love with Peach, so I just HAD to add my favorite line from Como Camarón 😁💖 I'm beyond elated that you caught and liked it, and OMG I had never thought of it as being some sort of extra stamp of me!! 🥹🥹 Gosh, now I love it even MORE, and it's thanks to you!! 💖💖💖
... I swear you're right there with Boma making me CRY 🥹🥹🥹 Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. I am beyond honored to call you my friend, and I can never forget how much you helped me when my old blog was deactivated. Even if I lived a thousand lifetimes I could never thank you enough 🫂🫂🫂
I've been reading through some of your fanfictions and let me just say, HOLY SHIT. I aspire to be half as good as you are. I've laughed and teared up and everything like you wouldn't believe. I can honestly say you're one of the best authors I've had the pleasure of reading. Anywho. Sorry. Have a nice day!
AAAaaahh, thank you SO MUCH! This was really such a wonderful message to get! <3 <3 <3

82 with Luaisy?
yippeeee first one
just as thanks for your post earlier, I'm writing this based on events in Untarnished, with Mario still in the hospital bed and Luigi being worried sick (understatement) <3
82. I Trust You
She had seen him sitting on the floor by the hospital room door – Mario’s door – in fetal position, curled in on himself to the point he looked like a deflated green ball. Even in his most anxious moments, Daisy had never seen Luigi look so defeated, dejected… detached.
Mario had been Luigi’s main priority for the last month, almost entirely rejecting his own well-being (which she absolutely wouldn’t allow), and was more short-tempered, snapping at every little thing that didn’t help bring Mario back to him- even her.
Daisy almost wanted to give up on him. He had shut himself out; she felt like she was walking on eggshells around him, felt like a stranger around him.
But she wouldn’t give up.
Her best friend was naturally in shambles; plagued with everlasting guilt for the extreme hardships her husband had to endure just to save her sorry self (her phrasing exactly). But Luigi was Mario’s brother. She would definitely never fully grasp the turmoil tearing him apart. But she refused to lose another person she loved dearly.
Daisy’s heels clicked quietly against the hospital floor as she approached Luigi. Lifting the back of her skirts, she settled beside him, their shoulders almost touching. He didn’t move an inch, but she knew he must have sensed her familiar floral-vanilla scent that, according to him, was very strong.
Her hand hovered over his arm, trembling slightly. Mario’s current condition had caused such a deep rift between them that she couldn’t even touch her own husband. But she took a deep breath and let it gently land on his arm, stroking her thumb along it.
She didn’t expect anything to happen - Luigi had been in that same spot for who-knows-how-long - but maybe, just maybe, her quiet company would reach him.
But after a few long moments, she heard something, like a faint snap, though she couldn’t tell if it came from Luigi or somewhere within the hospital. Slowly, he fell limply against Daisy’s shoulder, before turning his body and curling up against her. Daisy wanted to roll her head back in sheer relief but settled for gathering him into her arms and resting her cheek against his head. He was trembling severely. He was murmuring almost inaudibly in his native tongue.
“Sono così preoccupato per lui… Non posso perderlo...”
Of course, the words were lost on her, but Daisy responded by stroking his hair, whispering softly, “I’m here.”
Luigi hiccuped, clutching onto her torso and burying his face in her chest.
“Ti amo... ti amo così tanto,” he whispered against her, and this, Daisy understood. It was a phrase she'd heard from him countless times. She pressed a light kiss to his hair as a silent “I love you too.” They stayed like that for hours, and as the minutes ticked by, Daisy’s heart grew a little lighter. Luigi’s love and trust in her had never left. They had each other, and for now, that was enough.
I think your recent one with Peach in a mushroom-pattern dress and crown is my current favorite!
OMG FOR REALSIES
this makes me very happy cause I’m super proud of not only the way Peach came out, bUT the dress too 😁 you know I’ve been struggling with the girly so this is high praise coming from you!
