okay, thank you! (I'm still a bit embarrassed, but here I go ;;) I go by Sofia or Sofie, and may I have a small scenario (or headcanons depending on what you feel like) involving SDC Dio watching his fem s/o play with young Giorno, or just generally being motherly with him? I'm in kind of a soft mood tonight I guess 👉👈 If not that's okay too, it's just been on my mind a lot ahhh

There is no need to be embarrassed! In this house we simp on main

This is such a cute prompt, thank you! I hope you like it! I'm sorry I'm so late with it!

Dio watching his s/o play with Giorno

Dio has a soft smile on his face as he leaned his shoulder against the door frame with his arms crossed. He is watching his wife and their son play together, having a dramatic sword fight with sticks. You're taking cover behind furniture and rolling around the floor trying to beat each other. He can tell you're letting the boy win, but Giorno doesn't notice.

The child stabs you with his weapon and you make a big show of falling to your knees and then to the floor in defeat. Giorno is overjoyed with his victory, but in his excitement he trips and scrapes his knee.

"Giorno, are you okay, darling? Here, let's put a bandaid on that!" The boy looks at you with tears in his eyes as you reach down and kiss it better.

Dio is still in the same spot, wondering what he did to deserve this. A century ago, he would never have imagined that this would be his life. He isn't a religious man, but he finds himself thanking whatever god is out there for the two of you.

-

That evening when you're in your room together, he takes you by surprise.

"Thank you, Sofia." He takes his eyes from you, looking at the ceiling in thought.

"Thank me? For what?" Dio isn't the sentimental type, he isn't someone who just thanks his spouse out of nowhere.

"For everything. For being with me. You and Giorno are everything to me." He takes your hand as he directs his attention back to you.

"So are you for us, Dio. I love you."

"I love you too." You're softly smiling at each other, but the tender moment you're sharing is interrupted by a soft knock on the door. Giorno shyly walks in.

"I had a nightmare. Can I sleep here?"

"Of course, come in." His father tells him.

No, Dio never imagined his life would look like this.

He wouldn't change it for the world.

Personalized Tea Request

@lokifruitsalad gave me a whole list of teas that they like, but since they don’t label themselves with any kintype, I don’t have much to say about the teas? So I’m just going to give you a few of my favorites and stuff I find around in a list! 

Passion Herbal Tea: This is one of my favorite teas in this world I think. It’s bright pink, slightly sour, and has that hibiscus you like! If you add lemonade, it tastes like exactly like Starbucks Passion Tango tea lemonade, because, here’s a little secret, it’s the same brand!! 

Speaking of Tazo, here is another delicious hibiscus blend called the Egyptian Ruby Herbal Tea, with some pineapple for sour, and some peppermint for fun ! 

For more sour, have some Citrus Lavender Sage Herbal Tea! I know herbal teas weren’t high on your list, but trust me when I say that this tea will taste more citrus than herbal, with zesty pineapple, apple, and orange balancing nicely with sage, lavender, and sea buckthorn. 

And finally, have a Dragonfruit Devotion Tea Blend! Full of tropical flavors and deliciousness, I’m sure you will love it!

Hopefully I gave you something that you haven’t already tried, and if you ever want to come talk tea with me, then I am totally game!!

Anon asked for teas for a sea slug god who is gothic and powerful and doesn’t like lavender! I hope I do well! 

First, I wanted to hit the god aspect, as I know it’s important to respect that, so try this Hand of God tea blend. It’s got fruit, jasmine, and plenty of antioxidants to keep your body living long! I wasn’t able to find anything specific to you being a sea slug god, and I apologize for that, so hopefully this will do.

 A second god related tea to make up for not finding a sea slug related tea is this Pu Erh Bold Leaf tea. Pu Erh teas are often earthy like slugs, and the bold made me think of power! If you wish for a more powerful tea, take any tea blend and steep it to the latter end of the recommended brewing time for a stronger tea! 

Finally, I’ve picked out this Edgar Allen Poe’s Black Tea blend. I’ve personally had these tea blends (I believe the Lewis Carroll one), and they are really good. I figured that Edgar Allen Poe is pretty gothic, with his macabre and slightly disturbing stories. The tea is earthy and smoky, with a taste of citrus for fun. I really think you will enjoy this! Also, here is a cool tea pot set I found that you might like!

I hope I did alright, and enjoy your tea!!

@haunthearted asked for a ghostkin tea for a Victorian Gentleman, who vibes with analogue media and the Stone Tape Theory, and has a lot of dissociation in this life. I’m going to try and hit a little bit for each of these, so wish me luck! I hope I do well for you!! 

As I’m sure you know, tea was a major part of the Victorian Era, especially in Britain. There were many rules and nuances to hosting a party that would take a number of posts to explain, so here is a nice article that goes very indepth if you’d like to host your own, authentic tea party. The tea most commonly used during this era was regular Black Tea, usually made with sugar or milk. For these parties, only the finest tea cups, pots, and linens were used, so if you are looking for a real flashback to those times, try purchasing one of these tea cups so you can really feel at home with your tea. Food such as finger sandwiches, scones served with jam and butter, and light and sugary cakes are also an important part of any good tea party. 

Now, for the second party of your request. I couldn’t think of anything for the crackling record players or anything you mentioned, but I got a great idea for the theory. The Stone Tape theory says that ghost hauntings are really replays almost of electrical mental impressions stored in moist rocks and other items. Because the articles I read mentioned moist stones, I decided to go for an earthy tea, like Pu-erh teas (pronounced ‘poo-err’). Pu-erh teas are made from leaves that have been fermented before they are dried, unlike most leaves that are simply dried. This gives the teas a gentle woodsy, earthy flavor that is really great for making you think of graveyards, stones, and quiet foggy nights. Here’s a link to some excellent pu-erh teas so you can take your pick. (The store is Canadian, but I have one near me and it is a fantastic place, so please bare with the conversions if you are not from Canada). 

As for the last bit, centering around your dissociation, I decided on this Sage Tea. Sage has a number of health benefits, but beyond that, it is often burned and used to clear negative energies and assist with meditation. Hopefully this tea can both help protect you and ground you when you are having bad dissociation, and it tastes pretty great too. You can make homemade sage tea by simply pouring boiling water over fresh or dried sage leaves from your garden. Sage is a super easy plant to grow, in my experience, so if you are looking for something nice for your garden to make teas, I’d definitely add this. 

Hope I gave you some good suggestion!!!
