Sweetie Pie || Rosalind & Sonja

@strawberrypriestess 700g to @strawberrypriestess

Rosalind liked food, she came from a family of chefs and culinarians after all, but she had a particular penchant for the sweeter things. Cakes, cookies, pies, you name it, she probably liked it. 

Recently she’d discovered the Starry Sky Café, which, alongside delicious bubble teas and hot drinks also served some of her favourite selection of sweets in the archipelago, and today Rosalind was in the mood. Arriving at the café she ordered a hot chocolate, it was particularly chilly that day, and a slice of red velvet cake. The café wasn’t so busy that day, and Rosalind noticed a girl she’d met a few times at Starry Sky, who she understood to be the owner.

“Excuse me? Mademoiselle?” She called to her, “Sonja, right? I just wanted to compliment you on how delicious the cakes are here!” She smiled, taking a sip of her drink.

Heebie-Jeebies (BttP) || Sonja & Forte

@strawberrypriestess

The day following her return to the island, Forte had an odd feeling she couldn't shake. It pricked at her skin, making the hair on her neck stand on end. Goosebumps covered her arms intermittently throughout the day, but... she didn't feel ill or anything. It had been quite the ordeal, but she kept telling herself it would be okay. She was alive, and that's what mattered.

Something was off, though, and she couldn't ignore it. Dealing with death, in any capacity, was intense, but who knows what returned with her. Maybe some curse followed where the dragon bit her? Maybe some ghost attached instead of moving on? She couldn't deny their existence now... a shiver surged down her spine, radiating through her.

There was no shame in being checked out, she told herself, and headed to the dragon shrine. She didn't go often since moving to Arcadia, but she knew the priests and priestesses there would be able to help her if anything unnatural attached itself.

It was quiet inside, and she almost felt guilty breaking such calm. The words almost didn't come, as if her body wanted to keep all that trauma and experience to itself. Hide it away.

"Excuse me," she said to the only other woman there, hoping the pinkette was indeed a priestess, "I-I am aware that curse dispelling services are offered here? Is-is there any way to," she hesitated, clearing her throat, "check for unknown curses, or... spirits... on a person?"

She almost immediately regretted asking. What would people think if they found out an officer of the law was scared of ghosts?

Wandering Stargazers || Jamie & Sonja

@strawberrypriestess Jamie was bundled up in a huge oversized sweater and rather flimsy leggings- but the chill never did bother him as much as it should.  He was just getting off of work at Celestia Church- he usually worked night shifts there, so this wasn’t unusual for him.  He trekked along the way and climbed a little bit to make his way into a crook of Mt. Reinier- a personal spot he had found for looking at the stars that was rather optimal- almost no one came up here. 

As he sat down, blinking and huddling a blanket close to him- not really around him, just sort of holding it. He looked up at the sky, no less in awe than he had been any other time he looked up at the night sky. The view from even just a little further up the mountain was phenomenal; galaxies swarmed together to make up beautiful hues, making him feel small- which, in a strange sense, could be comforting.  Tonight though, he felt something...odd.  His head swiveled slowly to the side, and he noticed that someone else had found his spot quite optimal as well. Damn it. He cursed internally. But he couldn’t say anything this time- she had been there before him tonight, from the looks of it. 

His icy eyes that glowed in the night blinked at her. “Oh. Someone else is here too.” He muttered aloud in acknowledgement, and simply nodded his head to her before looking back up at the sky. If he felt more argumentative he might have been more snide about it, but honestly, he just wanted to relax.

Catching Up || Raguna & Sonja

@strawberrypriestess;

[✿] — Something was up.

Or at least that’s the impression Raguna was getting from the girl in front of him. All he’d been doing was manning the front desk while on shift at the guild. Taking calls, accepting requests and voyage forms--- basic secretarial stuff, really. It was nice to be out of the line of danger for once, but also got pretty... boring, after a while. A little action was refreshing now and then, though he doubted he’d get any of that today.

At least until Sonja practically came marching into the guild, purposeful, like she had some sort of mission, and right up to the desk he was seated behind.

Raguna blinks at her, wondering what was wrong. Just from the look in her eyes, he could see that her need to say something was glaringly apparent.

“Uh... hey, Sonja. What’s up?”

Flower Festival: B&B

@citruschase | @fishingdylas | @strxwberrypriestess

Even if Porcoline had a restaurant of his own now, he still loved working at Brie and Beaujolais. The food there was wonderful, and even more so were the people he worked alongside. Even the newest employee was already dear to his heart.

Wishing them a happy Flower Festival, he handed out flowers to everyone: an anemone, a lisianthus, a sunflower, an alstroemeria, and a yellow rose.

☾ @strxwberrypriestess ☽

•｡ ❀ 𝒰nbeknownst to her, whose contradiction of fact versus fiction was exacerbated by Gelwein, it appeared that there may very well be another human who can be trusted. Certainly, if this individual was an exception to the golden rule that was ingrained in her brain from the first day, there must be more people whose hearts are good and wholesome with intent; nevertheless, she would never dare attempt to bridge the gap over the testy waters that was his temperament. He would simply call her foolish, anyhow. Besides, if anything, it was beyond pleasing to spend time with someone else whom she could cautiously call her friend - for he found that term to be distasteful and, in his words, lies.

𝒜typical to their regular routine, Gelwein was rather frantic and decided he had more resolute things to do than spend his time at the apartment with Iris Noire. Thankfully, though, that meant that she could invite Sonja over - and if she were lucky, taste some of her delectable cooking!

“𝒢ood evening, Sonja.” Iris Noire graciously welcomed the young woman, gesturing for her to follow into the dull and lifeless apartment - excluding the vase of flowers that he gave her permission to sit out on the coffee table. It was one of the few things there that could bring a smile to her supple lips. “I’m... happy... that you could visit me tonight. ♫ How are you?”

Floating on Cloud Nine || Georgia & Sonja

@sakurainthewind

[🐎] — After she got done feeding the animals and monsters, she brought the sheep and cows out to graze in the pastures. The weather was nice, and since it was still fairly early on in the day, the temperature wasn’t too hot yet, so she figured it would be the perfect time to give the animals some fresh air before the summer sun rose too high up in the sky.

As they did this, Georgia leans against the fence of her ranch, munching on a riceball that she had -- properly! -- prepared that morning. Casually, she watches the flock of sheep, takes note of how thick their wool was, and resolves to shear them before the day was over. Keeping them like that in the heat of summer would just be absolute torture, plus she had been needing to ship off some more wool to the mainland, anyway...

She takes another bite of her riceball, eyes wandering until they catch on a figure in the distance. A girl with pink hair, lingering by the fence and... was she staring at something? Following her gaze, Georgia glances over at the grazing cows and sheep-- the animals? Was that what she was staring at?

“Uh--” She starts, swallowing the rest of her riceball before continuing. Gods, rice was so good. “--hey there! Can I help you with somethin’, Miss...?”

Meg Kyle tagged along when his elf parents-- err guardians attended the event at Bellicose. It seemed like a great way to meet people, even if he did have to switch it up a bit and go formal. He just came back from a bathroom break and noticed how Jake was being asked to dance. He was surprisin...
