Pelican or Pelican’t? | Pam & Alex

Pam was finally making some semblance of progress in her goal to abstain from drinking in her new life. Sure, she indulged in some other vices like gambling, but this one, her eternal foe, was starting to be vanquished. She decided to only get non-alcoholic drinks for one night at the bar. She felt a feeling of satisfaction she hadn’t felt in quite a long time. But while she was drinking away at this particular establishment on this particular night, she noticed someone she hadn’t seen in quite a while. Was that..... no, it couldn’t..... no, it had to be. She’d recognize that jacket anywhere, even if it was bigger. That had to be Alex, that young lad that Evelyn had some years ago. She couldn’t let this golden opportunity to check up on her old friend go by. She slid over to Alex, smoothly and with more grace then a drunk person could possibly manage. Then, with some implacable confidence (or smugness, depending on how you looked at it), she spoke. “Hey there, kid. You’re a long way from Pelican Town, aren’t you?”

Valentine’s!

500g to @dontdrinkyourmilk  1,027g to @heartsfxryou

new total: 474g

Valentine’s Day was both one of Muffy’s favourite and least favourite times of year, least when she was single, like... Now. But nonetheless, as tradition dictated, she sent off gifts, with personalised messages, to all those in her life she felt deserved it. She just wished she’d had a bit more money to spare.

@oaktreeweathergirl - Gentian Flower

Dear Lillie,

Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope this flower finds you well, isn’t it nice that flowers like this grow in such a cold time of year? I’m happy that you helped me get better in the kitchen, and for the friendship that’s come from that. I’ll be watching you on the weather channel! I hope the sun comes out again soon!~

Love, Muffy

@gourmaid - Rose Vanilla Bath Foam

Dear Felicity,

It’s Valentine’s Day! I found this bath foam when I was out shopping and my mind instantly went to you. I know I love a nice relaxing bath. So in honour of the most important love you have, yourself, I hope you treat yourself to just that! 

Love, Muffy

@gridballgod - chocolate (wrapped in fancy paper it’s definitely not supermarket chocolate)

Dear Alex,

Happy Valentine’s Day! I know you like to stay fit (and believe me, you’re doing a good job) but take a day off and enjoy this chocolate! I enjoyed our date recently. Thanks again for taking me out.

From, Muffy

@theperfectheir - Berries & Herbs Fragrance Oil

Dear Max,

Happy Valentine’s Day! I know it’s a little different from the usual flowers and chocolate combo that’s so common this time of year, but I feel like you’d appreciate something like this better! I hope you like the smell. Keep in touch!

Muffy

What’s the Password

@gridballgod

Billy walked the streets looking for a signal. He could be at his apartment, but sometimes even he needed to get out (and the reception is terrible). Finally, he found a strong signal and-ugh, it was connected to a gym. The half-elf stood outside the building and tried to connect, but of course there was a password.

Reluctantly, Billy entered the gym and approached a fit looking man that could be a employee or patron for all he knew. 

“Yo, what’s the wi-fi password?”

Blueberry Grumble | Marla & Alex

@a-notatum

Forced out of bed because of “routine” and “rules”. Marla zombied her way down the hall in her morning look of pink pjs and bed head. Younger kids ran past her, full of energy and life. normally she would’ve joined them, giving piggybacks and racing small feet, but after staying up most of the night working on a particularly hard math assignment, Marla was drained before the day even began.

Once in the cafeteria, Marla skipped the line for hot food, grabbed a muffin, some milk and sat down at the closest table. She hadn’t even got the wrapper off her pastry when a plate was set in the spot next to her. The teen didn’t even have to look up to know who it was and that he was probably going to nag her for not grabbing a more balanced breakfast.  But she was too tired to care at this point.

Taking a bite of her muffin, she grumpily looked over at Alex.Daring him to say something.

After a little fumbling around in the dark, Raguna bests Alex and moves on to the next round!

Free Time || Alex and Marian

No one was coming into the clinic, plus it was around time for Marian’s lunch break so she decided to experiment with some medicine. Right now she was working on something that would give people the ability to do a simple party trick when they originally couldn’t. Do that thing where you make your tongue look like a flower? Be able to say the alphabet backwards? Open a hershey kiss in one move? Done, done, and done. You’re the life of the party.

She sat on the floor in one of the empty examination rooms setting out her ingredients, practice potions, notes, other supplies like her cauldron and other sciency stuff, and she took off the syringe necklace that hung around her neck. Her grandmother made Marian wear it to keep her magic under control, but when she really needed to work she’d take it off to let her magic go wild.

After ten or so minutes Marian heard the door open. She looked up and saw Alex, “Oh hey, what’s up?”

She must’ve been quite a sight. With her magic unchecked there were items levitating and floating around the room. She had papers strewn across the floor. It was chaos. But Marian worked just fine in chaos.

Medical Emergency || Lillie & Alex

@givehimtheleaf;

[ ☀ ] — Lillie considered herself to be a fairly healthy individual. She ate (most) of her vegetables, and would even cook herself nice and nutritious meals whenever she found the time to. She also kept very active by exercising and participating in extracurricular activities, such as dancing, yoga and sports. As not only a weather girl, but an entertainer, she had to keep herself fit and in shape.

But because of her busy and demanding lifestyle, Lillie often needed to keep her own energy boosted, since she rarely ever got the amount of sleep she needed. So she drunk coffee, ate chocolate, and gulped down a few energy drinks here and there. Not because they were good (and don’t get her wrong, they really were), but because she needed the caffeine boost.

Though she might have consumed a little too much of it, if her shaking hands and splitting headaches were any indicator. Her heart was beating a little faster too, and when she had gone into the station to work that morning, she was so incapable of uttering a sentence without stuttering or swaying in place that her superiors demanded she take some time off for the day and go get herself checked out at the hospital.

Lillie wanted to work, of course, but even she could concede that she wasn’t in the state to. So she sits in the examination room, rubbing at her temple as she waits for her doctor to come.

Ocean Bites Back || Marla & Alex

@doctoralexcranberry There are many stories of what happens to man when they encountered a mermaid who was having a bad day, lead out into the water with a song and pulled beneath the waves never to be seen again, ship wrecks, hypnotizium. And while the usually cheerful marla didn’t have the ability to do any of those things, she was in the mood to cause some havoc. It was the humans fault she was having a bad day after all, One fisherman started his motor near her hair, cutting some of it off, another dumped his chum without looking right on to Marla’s head and the worse of all was some asshole who just dumped some unknown neon liquid into the water that stained her hands when she tried to scoop it out! Humans needed to learn to care for their docks and beaches more, none of them appreciated what they had, so Marla took advantage of the situation to get a lot of revenge, and y’know teach them a lesson. She tore holes in their nets, unscrewed parts of the boat motors, and now she was on her final task, whittling away the bottom of the dock. It had taken her hours but she finally made a space in the dock, that a human could fall through and get their leg stuck.   Just as she released a sigh and inspected her hard work, Marla heard approaching foot steps. It was time.
