Ok Sunny I finally decided from all these fantastic prompts

Hugs 27 for Bagginshield

Touches 33 for Haddotin

(I may send again I'm just warning)

Okay so I've been in a bit of a Friends mood lately so we can blame that for my inspiration for the first request. Otherwise, cute summer vibes for Haddock and Tintin! I hope you enjoy ex-husband. 😁

27. Piggy back hugs- Bagginshield

Bilbo’s head was killing him. More so than the cotton mouth feeling and the turmoil in his stomach. He gave a low groan as he mentally cursed the amount of alcohol he had consumed last night. Even if it had been fun getting together with everyone again. The only consolation was Bilbo knew his roommate had to be in a similar state or worse. 

“BILBO! BREAKFAST!”

His head popped off the pillow causing him to moan as he glared at the door. Thorin was up? Just what happened last night to put him in such a good mood. And more to the point, not hungover. Bilbo reached over for his phone, checking the time only to see a missed text from Thorin. That was odd. Rubbing at his eyes and giving a long stretch, he opened the text only for his entire body to freeze at the four simple words.

I love U 2

Bilbo put a hand over his mouth to hold in the scream that wanted to come pouring out. What did he SAY last night?! How could he have done this? How could he actually have told Thorin… 

It suddenly dawned on Bilbo. Too. I love you too. He felt the same way. All the pain and nausea seemed to fall by the wayside as Bilbo flung himself out of bed, and into the flat’s kitchen. Thorin had his back to him, humming something under his breath as he flipped some pancakes onto a plate. Looking utterly divine in nothing but a tank and some boxers with his hair pulled up into a bun, Bilbo almost couldn’t believe that this gorgeous man actually wanted him too. As Thorin turned to put the plate on the table, he looked up only to smile at Bilbo.

“Hey! How are you feeling today?”

Something warm and fluttery settled in his chest as a grin split his face. Suddenly, he was running for Thorin whose eyes seemed to widen to saucers as Bilbo used the couch as a springboard to launch himself at the taller man. Thorin quickly turned his back to Bilbo, who wrapped himself around his neck and his legs around his waist. Thorin took a few steps before steadying himself on the counter.

“Bilbo! What on earth…?”

Bilbo buried his nose in Thorin’s neck causing him to tense.

“You love me too.” Bilbo sighed.

“W-What?” Thorin breathed out shakily.

Bilbo’s brow furrowed as he turned his head only to see Thorin’s panic-stricken eyes and the blush creeping across his face. His grip slipped slightly.

“You texted me this morning. You said ‘I love you too’.”

“I said I love U2!” Thorin clarified. “The band? Don’t you remember?”

Something slimy came back to slither in Bilbo’s gut as he slid completely down from Thorin’s back wishing he could just go ahead and melt through the floor as well. Oh no. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no.

“You were drunk and that song played. The one that you said was a ‘rainy day classic’?”

Bilbo covered his mouth and stomach with his hands knowing he may actually throw up as he tried to make a beeline back for his room. What had he done? This was awful! He could never face Thorin again. Speaking of whom, seemed bound and determined to pound his point straight into Bilbo’s splitting skull.

“I said ‘oh I love this one’. And you said ‘you don’t even know the band’. And then I texted you ‘I love U2’ so you couldn’t pretend you didn’t hear. Like that other time we got drunk and you conveniently didn’t hear me say ‘get me a couple slices of pizza too’?. But…you thought I love you? You thought I love you too? Do you love me?”

Bilbo was never drinking again. This was a nightmare. An absolute nightmare. He had nearly made it all the way back to his room when Thorin grabbed hold of his arm, stopping him in his tracks. 

“Bilbo?”

He wanted to run, he wanted to cry, he wanted to throw up. He did not want to have this conversation and make everything awkward and force Thorin to move out and not want to be his friend anymore. Eight months. For eight months, he had managed to keep his secret in spite of his friends meddling and teasing. Even last night when Bofur made a crack about Bilbo’s type being ‘tall, dark, and handsome with a voice smoother than any 90s ballad…’ 

Ah. Well that explained how U2 got brought up then. Hell of a time to remember that unfortunate detail. He could have broken away. Retreat to his room for a few hours, and then make a plan for how best to play it off. Let everything go back to normal. That’s when he made the mistake of looking up into his roommate’s shining eyes round with an emotion that Bilbo dared not name as hope. Thorin’s hand slid down to Bilbo’s wrist, and he followed the movement if anything to distract himself from having to have the most awkward conversation in the world. Bilbo heaved a huge sigh.

“Lately, I suppose, I’ve come to…have certain…feelings for you. More than friendly-type feelings.”

Thorin sucked in a breath, and Bilbo broke away from his grip, tears stinging his eyes.

“But it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter! I can…not have them. It’s okay. I’m just…having the world’s worst hangover apparently so if you can just…forget I said anything, that would be…”

Bilbo had the door open when a pair of arms snaked their way around his middle, and Thorin was pressing himself fully against Bilbo’s back nearly causing him to bend in two. 

“Get off me, you tree!” Bilbo complained.

“I love you too.” Thorin admitted as he rested his cheek on top of Bilbo’s head.

Bilbo paused. Hoping he wasn’t misinterpreting. Not this time.

“And…to be clear you’re not talking about the band this time?”

“No.” Thorin laughed. “I love you, Bilbo Baggins. I have for a while. I just didn’t want to ruin things.”

Bilbo’s knees nearly buckled, taking them both to the ground, he was so relieved. He tried to turn so he could embrace Thorin back, but he was trapped in place by the man’s weight.

“Can you let go so I can hug you probably then?”

“Yes, you would think that would be the appropriate response, wouldn’t you? Not just fling yourself onto the person’s back.”

Thorin finally loosened his grip just enough for Bilbo to be able to face him, but still remain close to him. Bilbo put his hands around Thorin’s neck as the man looked down on him with his playful smirk that probably was mostly responsible for Bilbo’s infatuation in the first place. 

“I love you.” Bilbo whispered.

Thorin rewarded him with a small kiss. Bilbo couldn’t believe this was actually happening.

“I love you too.”

Thorin started to chuckle at this which had Bilbo snickering right along with him. Leaning his head against Thorin’s chest, he hummed contently. This wasn’t such a bad place to be. Then his stomach really did revolt.

“Thorin, you’re going to have to let go now.”

“Why?” Thorin questioned.

“Because I have to throw up.”

It wasn’t the best beginning to a new relationship, but Bilbo confessed his love all over again when he showed up in his bathroom with a glass of water and a couple of pain pills.

“Probably a good thing you don’t remember what all you promised to do to me if I cooked up breakfast this morning.” Thorin hummed in disappointment.

Bilbo coughed as water entered the wrong pipe. “I’m sorry, what?”

“Why do you think I got up so early?” Thorin asked with his arms crossed before giving the most infuriating eyebrow raise and smirk ever.

“Thorin! WHAT?!”

33. Tasting their smile- Haddotin

It had been a gorgeous day to take a stroll through the many acres that made up Marlinspike. While the sea breeze and the rocking motion of the ship had been his environment for years, Haddock was really gaining an appreciation for the filtered light through the trees and the calls of the birds. However, the heat was something he could do without entirely.

“You ready to head back?” He asked, pulling at his collar. “I could do with some of Nestor’s refreshments.”

“We can do that. We have been walking for a while.” Tintin hummed before calling out for Snowy.

The little terrier was only a few paces ahead, and was quick to return to his master’s side. While a polite gesture, Haddock couldn’t help noticing his companion was neither winded nor sweating. To be young and fit. It was enough to send him grumbling if he didn’t reach for his pipe instead. Unfortunately, he forgot to bring a light so he could only chew on the mouthpiece or hold the bowl in his hand. If Tintin found his habit to be ridiculous, he refrained from saying anything. 

It was something that bothered Haddock from time to time. He could never get a good read on Tintin. Always maintaining a distance verbally or physically, the only times Haddock had ever really seen the depths of his heart was when he or Snowy was in mortal danger or Haddock had done something to make him laugh. He had to confess to enjoying the latter more than the former for obvious reasons and not just because he thought Tintin’s laugh was the most beautiful sound in the world. 

He had been rather worried about how his offer for Tintin to take advantage of the extra rooms at Marlinspike would be received, expecting to get shot down. However, Tintin and Snowy moved in almost immediately, citing the spikes in rent as reason to leave a flat he hardly used anyways. If the reporter had any complaints, he hid them well from Haddock And he had to admit, it was rather nice not just having him around more, but being available more readily for the moments where Tintin had latched on to a new case he wasn’t about to let go of. More bloodhound PI in him than journalist, Haddock couldn’t help but notice. Still, even though he wasn’t as young as he used to be, and had come to prefer the quieter lifestyle than the older one, there wasn’t enough money in the world to keep him away from the young man who managed to steal his weathered, battered, old heart.

Managing the few steps without starting to breath heavily was considered a success as they passed through the dining room and into the sunlit breakfast nook. Well, at least what counted for a breakfast nook in this house as the table was still large enough to seat eight. However, it was more than enough for their little family of sorts and where they tended to take most of their meals. As Haddock suspected, Nestor was pouring them each a glass of mixed berry lemonade and dolling out a scoop of what looked to be some sort of trifle dessert. 

Haddock and Tintin were quick to take their seats as Haddock put his pipe away in favor of drinking down as much of the drink as he could before allowing Nestor to refill it. It wasn’t bad. Would be better with some whiskey, but he wasn’t going to complain.

“Master Haddock, Master Tintin, how was your walk?” Nestor asked.

“Wonderful.” Tintin answered with a smile. “Perfect for working up an appetite for this lovely spread.”

“You’re too kind, Sir.” Nestor smiled, giving a short bow.

“You can say that again.” Haddock grumbled.

“Come again?” Tintin questioned, pausing with his fork halfway to his mouth.

Haddock waved away his concern. “It’s nothing, just a thought I had early.”

Of course, this wasn’t remotely good enough for the younger man who needed to know every little aspect of Haddock’s thought process without returning the favor. Something he had grown used to with Tintin, but never really accepted.

“Do you not think I should be kind?” Tintin asked with a brow raised.

“Thundering typhoons.” He swore. “Who would possibly think such a thing? Of course, I don’t have a problem with you being kind.”

“So then it’s that I’m too kind.” Tintin huffed. “Do you worry people take advantage of me? Because I’m quite capable of taking care of myself, Captain.”

At this point, Nestor had beat a quick exit to the kitchen, and Haddock rather wished he was with him to be perfectly honest. He may not know what was going on with his friend most of the time, but he did know that slight furrow between his brows meant trouble. Which was unfortunate since it was aimed at him this time. Haddock stabbed at the strawberry jam in his slice of trifle a few times as he struggled to gather his thoughts.

“You’re putting words in my mouth now.” He grumbled. “You’re just a little hard to read sometimes. Because…you know. You use your…politeness as a mask.”

The silence that settled was enough to unnerve Haddock as he quickly began to shove jam and custard into his mouth as fast as possible. 

“I suppose, I didn’t realize it was obvious that I did that.” Tintin remarked, staring at his plate with a smile that was best described as empty.

Haddock had to choke down his dessert fast as he quickly tried to dissuade his younger friend.

“Not obvious!” He finally barked. “At least not to everyone.”

“But it is to you.” Tintin accused, his dark eyes sharp as they latched onto Haddock’s.

The former sea captain didn’t like it. He felt exposed, and he knew unlike himself, Tintin could probably see every little emotion he wore. It was still hot. He thought being inside would fix that, and he immediately reached over to down another glass of the delicious lemonade.

“It bothers you. That I’m not more…expressive?” Tintin questioned, tilting his head to the side in an attempt to look even younger than he already appeared.

Haddock felt his grip tighten on the pitcher as he poured himself more lemonade.

“I never said…”

“But it does.” Tintin noted. “Do you not trust me?”

“Blistering barnacles! Of course I trust you!”

“So you just don’t understand me…”

“I don’t understand why we’re having this conversation…”

“Ah! You find it disadvantageous. You think I’m going to find something in you, and then you won’t be able to find it in me in return. But what are you looking for that I haven’t…oh.”

“TINTIN!”

The table shook and silverware clinked after Haddock’s fists crashed down. It had been a  mistake. He knew better than to antagonize that mind of his. He could only hope that Tintin hadn’t found what he worked so hard to keep hidden from him. Didn’t know the true depths of his feelings for his overly bright companion. 

“I pressed a little too far. My apologies, Captain. I didn’t mean to upset you.” 

Haddock sighed as the polite mask fit perfectly back into place. 

“It’s neither here nor there. Water under the bridge. Let’s be done with it and…move on.”

Haddock scraped his plate clean and finished the last of the lemonade. Patting his belly, he figured he could go up to the study and finally have a little smoke. It might be good to give Tintin some space after this.

“You know, I’ve been meaning to thank you for letting Snowy and I move in with you.” Tintin remarked, his cheeks pink and eyes earnest. “It’s been a long time since I’ve felt like the place I was living was a true home.”

Haddock knew what he was doing, but even so the unexpected confession had a smile splitting his face. He was just about to tell Tintin how glad that made him when he felt a pair of lips brush against his own. Haddock’s eyes had to have grown three sizes as he could only gape at the suddenly coy man as he licked his lips, quite pleased with himself.

“I especially love having fresh berries at our disposal. Delicious! Please pass the message along to Nestor, I think Snowy and I are going to go upstairs to our room now. Enjoy the afternoon, Captain. I’ll see you later for dinner.”

Even as he threw a glance over his shoulder at Haddock, the old sea dog felt frozen to his seat. Did that really just happen? And was he just teasing Haddock about his own feelings or did he feel the same way? He groaned while pinching the bridge of his nose. He really couldn’t get a read on Tintin.

“Well?”

Haddock looked up to see Nestor had miraculously returned only to stare at him pointedly before looking off in the direction Tintin just left. Haddock threw his hands up in the air before jumping up.

“I’m going! Happy?” He demanded as he stomped after the younger man.

He just barely caught Nestor’s rather amused response. “Never been happier.”

Haddock resisted the urge to scowl. So there was a chance it wasn’t Tintin. Maybe Haddock was just bad at reading people in general. No matter, he was going to get a straight answer from him this time. And he rather hoped it was one that worked out well for him to get a taste of Tintin this time.

Request some touch drabbles from Sunny.

Let's rate all Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons summer themes! Why? Because it's summer at my half of the globe! SNES - I never really liked this theme. Too busy, too energetic, too repetiteve. It is fine enough to listen too though, but it was never one of my favs. GB/GBC - It's the same melody as SNES, but with the Game Boy sound font. For some reason, it actually sounds BETTER like that. Yeah, I prefer the GBC one to the SNES one. 64 - Hmm... I am torn on that theme. Similar to the SNES theme, it feels too busy for me and the first few notes are a bit grating, but the melody is pretty catchy and entraps you to hum along. Also, the quieter part of the theme sounds pretty good. Yeah, it's pretty solid ^^ If only the loud entry wouldn't be. GBC2 - YIKES! That was my reaction when it started, but it gets gradually better and turns into a pretty enjoyable little melody, sounds very much like summer. BTN - Aaah, now we are talking! This song is just FUN! It lets you think about a fun summer day on the beach. The melody starts a bit frantic and then gets calmer for the second verse, and you just want to wave your body along the melody and eat ice cream. It's a bit short though... GBC3 - Like pretty much every entry for this game, the music is pretty yikes. It just... isn't very good. It isn't an ear grater, but also not very enjoyable to listen to. AWL - While AWL lacks a summer theme on its own, because you can only play disks in your house and on your farm, it uses a song from Save the Homeland and that one is remixed pretty well. FoMT - It's the same melody as BTN but in the GBA sound font. It sounds well enough, but it can't beat the PSX version of it! Yes, I am biased, I prefer BTN over FoMT, end me if you please. BTN was the better game and I wished SoS FoMT would have been more BTN and less FoMT. MM - My husband goes around and hums this theme when I play Magic Melody ^^ And I get why, it's an earworm! It has this absolute summer feel, similar to BtN, from a summer day at the beach you want to spend with ice cream. It has such a tropical feel and once the main melody sets in, you can't help but hum along the music. I especially love the key change at around 1.17 ^^

StH Farm Theme - Ah, it's the theme got used in AWL, but this version is SO MUCH BETTER. I love the charming little melody, the guitar melody in the background, how the melody slowly splashes along and then turns into a flute to just tell you that you are on the countryside and sit leaned against the fence on your farm while there are 30 C and you are completely fine with it. StH Town Theme - Ah, this theme is a lot more energetic and quick. While it kinda remixes the farm theme (every StH theme does that), it doesn't carry quite the same nostalgia as the farm theme. The part that starts at 0.43 is super rad though and I love this bit. DS - I never have been a fan of this summer theme. It just feels like it starts and never ends. It just goes on and on and on and ugh... it annoys me kind of. At least you can switch the music in HM DS. IoH - This game kinda manages to nail all its themes, it is such a charming little song that makes me think of a summer breeze, but it's sadly, like every IoH song far too short. HoLV - Aw, what a charming little song ^^ The bassline melody and the main melody really contemplate each other and unite into a song that sounds like you want to let your feet doused by the river on a hot summer day.

ToT Day Theme - ToT goes a very different route with it's summer theme. It's a downright relaxing song. It is a joy to listen to, for it gives you the feeling that you are allowed to slow down and do your chores in your own pace. I really like the key change in this one. Sadly, the song falls short. ToT Night Theme - It's the same melody as the day theme, but... it sounds a bit haunted in my opinion ^^' ToT's night themes all have this problem. The key change though is really good here, make it sound like a warm summer night under the stars. SI - Hmmm... it's ok to listen to, I guess, but I don't actually feel a lot when I listen to this theme. It doesn't have a very summery feel for me and actually feels a bit chaotic. AP Day Theme - I LOVE THIS THEME! Ok, I say it, that is downright my favourite summer theme in the whole series! It starts with such joyful piano notes and then the piano takes a back seat with the same three notes that goes up and down while the main melody kicks in and just tells you that this is a summer day and you will enjoy it and you will have fun doing your chores and then sit at the beach that is right in front of your farm or share a cold drink with your sweet heart. My husband also can't stop humming this theme whenever I play AP, that shows how much of an earworm it is ^^ AP Night Theme - The melody is the same one as the day theme, but played more slowly and more relaxing. While I prefer the day theme, this one is super solid as well and a joy to listen too, especially the bassline of this song. GB - Ah, a fun little theme ^^ It is very fitting for the world of the game which seems to be set in the netherlands. I like listening to it, it is a song that you want to sway to.

ToTT - I hear the first few notes of this and instantly know that is summer, that is how much this summer theme got ingrained into my mind. It is one of the more relaxing themes though and there isn't much indication that it is a summer theme actually, so while it works very well as song, it isn't the greatest summer theme. ANB - Is it the 3DS game with the best music in the series?! It is! And ANB doesn't disappoint, the summer theme SLAPS! It is a joyful little song which runs at a quick pace and lets you feel like it is summer and you want to go to the mountains and sweat while you climb out and then go for a swim in the river on your way back up. The key change at 0.53 is just GREAT and it gets me every little time I play the game. TLV Day Theme - Aw, I always liked this little theme, it is a very relaxing theme and it fits the valley that is your playground in this theme. I just liked to terraform while this relaxing music played. TLV Night Theme - Um, are we at a jazz bar? Because that legit sounds like a theme that would play at night in a jazz bar, where you sit with your drink and just chill while you look at the jazz band performing. SoS Day Theme - SoS is special, because in that game you actually CAN SWIM IN THE RIVER, so I really like that the summer theme is so enjoyable to listen to, because you can actually cool off in this game ^^ Go swim and dive while this little theme plays, mostly played with plucking instruments. SoS Night Theme - Oh, this one starts a bit slow, but gets really nice to listen to once it hits the first 30 seconds. A very relaxing song, another one that makes me want to douse my feet in water and look at the starts while I stay on the countryside. SV Day Theme - I kinda always liked this tune. It is a fun little tune that feels like summer and has a nice melody to it, but that is pretty much all I have to say about it. SV Night Theme - Ah, we are back at the jazz bar ^^ The quiet piano melody is very jazzy and yeah, that is all I can say about it. SoS 3oT - It's a nice melody and enjoyable listening to it, but I don't really feel summer with this theme, so I am a bit torn on it. I think I prefer the fall and winter themes in this game. It's really nice to listen to though like I said, so I don't mind that it plays for 31 ingame days straight. LoH Day Theme - A nice song that totally sounds like summer to me, but like the rest of LoH's music, it just kinda... splashes along and nothing really happens. LoH Night Theme - Hmmm... it really isn't anything happening in this theme. It is more a melody so that it isn't quiet. SoS FoMT Weekday Theme - It's the tune of BtN but remixed.. and... in a good way actually! This song SLAPS! I really like what they do to my summer time beach fun song. SoS FoMT Weekend Theme - God, I LOVE this song! For some reason, SoS FoMT added a remix of the seasonal songs for the weekends and festival days and this one is such a banger, I can't help but bop to it, it's so good! It just sounds so much like summer and you just want to run around and dance to it while you enjoy your day off at the beach. Doraemon SoS Day Theme - What a cute little song ^^ It is on the more relaxing side, but it clearly has a summery feel to me. The video shows Nobita napping on the beach and well, isn't that a mood for this song ^^ Doraemon SoS Night Theme - Nobita still naps in the video and well, the music turned into his lullaby I guess ^^ It is mainly a guitar solo that is played slowly and very quietly, very very relaxing. I think I am falling asleep as well... OW - Sadly no one uploaded this music... which is a shame, because it is really good and the song gets remixed depending in which country you are. I really dislike how much hate this game got, because it is actually a solid entry and has some of the best music in the franchise. PoOT Weekday theme - I HATE THIS THEME! It isn't because the melody is bad, it's that DAMN TRUMPET! Why is the trumpet player playing it so... crazy? Why are so many notes sounding off key? The song would slap if the

trumpet wouldn't be there! I love every part of it, but then the trumpet ruins my day. Ugh! UGH! I legit had to switch the music off at first while playing until I got used to this horrible horrible trumpet. PoOT Weekend theme - Oh thank GOD! This theme is without the horrible trumpet. I prefer the holidays in PoOT summer a LOT because the song is actually enjoyable to listen to and it sounds very much like summer as well.

I finally finished it!! And the day before the wedding too!! I will do another during the week, but it’ll most likely be shown as a photo of a traditional drawing cuz it’s so hard to get comfortable doing digital art while traveling. At least I got to do this while doing so.

I always wanted to do a beach scene and I finally did!! I loved doing the scene on the left, but I’m kinda eh with the scene on the right. Both enjoying a melon soda with the “lover straw” thing. The idea is cute, but the execution I think could’ve been better. I actually always had trouble with scenes like this since a teen >.> hopefully one day I’ll get better at them with practice, right?

Anyway!! Hope you enjoy this!!
