[the-wonder-duo]

One month!!!

I’m so excited!!!!!

[the-wonder-duo]

Yep! Everything’s ready (or nearly so) for the big day. 

In the end, Kacchan and I did need a bit of help with all of the planning— our publicist, friends, and family all pitched in to lend a hand or two, and we did consult a little with a planner, too! She was the one that had the connection to book our vendor. 

The wedding isn’t really rooted in tradition— or not in Japanese tradition, in any case; I’m not sure if anyone could top Creati-san’s and Celsius’s wedding, in that regard! 

We’ve reserved the locations for our reception and ceremony, and they’re close enough that everyone will be able to walk the distance between them! Iida-kun is going to be officiating the wedding, and we both decided on our individual wedding parties a few months ago. Everyone’s attire is ready, or nearly so— the alterations for Ochako’s dress are scheduled to come in by next week, and my new suit’s finished, too. My ring…

I know it’s a little foolish, but if I’m being honest with you all, I haven’t quite given up on returning my body to the way it was before. I’ve decided against altering my ring. Obviously, it’s not going to fit on my hand during the ceremony, but I’ve decided to wear it on a chain around my neck, instead. 

Kacchan says that he’s going to do the same. 

We’ve worked with Shemage’s sister to pick the floral arrangements. After asking Creati-san and Celsuis, and consulting with her therapist, we asked Haki-chan to help us with that decision! We want her to show her the good side of flowers, and invite her to take part in our celebration together. Not so coincidentally, Haki-chan has also agreed to be our flower girl!

We’ve hired two photographers, and my mom has told me that she’s going to take lots of pictures, too! The owner of our favorite noodle bar (Kacchan and I have been going to his family-run restaurant since we were interning together!) has agreed to cater the event— and ply those of an appropriate age with alcohol. We’ve printed menu cards so that guests will know which options they’ll be able to choose from during the reception. 

We’ve reserved a block of rooms at a local hotel for those that are going to be coming from out of town— I’m thrilled to say that there are a few people that I’ve met during my time abroad that have RSVP’d for the event. Likewise, we’ve arranged transportation for a few of these guests during their stay here. I can’t wait to see them all again! 

We’ve finally agreed on how many people that we’re going to allow at the wedding, too! I wanted many more than Kacchan, but Kacchan finally agreed to let us invite a few of you guys, as well, which was— well, I hope it was made obvious by Kacchan’s announcement a few days ago! 

Those that have been invited to attend the ceremony and following reception should receive an invitation within a few days. I’m sorry it’s a bit late! The rest of our invitations have been sent out for some time, but if those who receive an invitation want to take part in the event, we’d be glad to have you! 

I have a, ah. Hour-to-hour timeline for the day of the event. 

Kacchan’s been a little stubborn about the music. I have no idea what he has planned, but I’m sure that it’s going to be amazing. Kacchan’s in charge of it, after all; it couldn’t be anything but. 

We’re checking back in with our wedding party, caterer, photographers, and venue hosts this week. We still need to assign seating, but our friends have been playing around with the tables for a while and they’ve assured us that they have it covered. 

It feels like I’ve written my vows a thousand times. I haven’t settled on the words that I want to say just yet, but I know that they’re going to come. 

I can’t wait! 

[the-wonder-duo]

In the end, Kacchan and I decided to take a best, ah… Person? For ourselves. 

I know it’s a bit more usual to have a best man, but I asked Uravity if she’d like to be my best woman, and I’m happy to say that she accepted! Likewise, Kacchan told Red Riot that he was going to be his best man a while ago. 

Haki-chan is our flower girl, and Hikaru-chan is our ring bearer. 

We’ve invited the entire former class of 3A to join us by the alter. Yaorashi Inasa, Utsushimi Camie, Kendou Itsuka, and Monoma Neito were extended an invitation, as well. 

[the-wonder-duo]

I’m afraid that your services won’t be required.

[the-wonder-duo]

I keep Deku from shoving his head too far up our wedding’s ass. 

Gets too bogged down in little details sometimes. Gotta remember to pull back and look at the big picture. 

Decided on the flowers together, and with the kid, too. Deku came up with the location, and we mulled it over, I agreed. Food’s a joint effort, and the music’s on me. 

[the-wonder-duo]

Cherry blossoms! 

[the-wonder-duo]

Apparently, that’s for Kacchan to know and the rest of us to find out. 

[the-wonder-duo]

No!!

[the-wonder-duo]

You guys!!

[the-wonder-duo]

I’ve written mine a few times, but I haven’t quite settled on the words that I want to say on the big day. 

I’m not sure if Kacchan is finished with his yet. 

[the-wonder-duo]

Is that so. 

[thetopzytender]

Anyone who attacks your wedding with 20+ pros, not to mention several individuals with their quirk licenses, deserves a Darwin Award.

[the-wonder-duo]

Hey, assholes.

Only a month left. 

Make sure to check your mailboxes. 

[the-wonder-duo]

You wish.

[thetopzytender]

Ahhhhh! I’m so happy. Did you plan a wedding shower?

[the-wonder-duo]

Yeah.

We picked our wedding colors. 

[the-wonder-duo]

You should’ve seen Deku at the fitting.

[the-wonder-duo]

Looks like we’re gonna save “Atlantis” for the honeymoon.

[the-wonder-duo]

He’s still a nerd.

[the-wonder-duo]

A small boutique near our home is handling those particular arrangements! 

[thetopzytender]

Oh jeeze I go away for a few weeks and everything changes!

I just caught up with the blog and I’m so happy for you two. I’m sure you’re going to look amazing on the big day! 

Deku I hope your recovering is coming along well with Yuuki-kun! I can’t wait to see you two back in action. I’m going to be registering for the Civilian Quirk Use Licensing Course, as a business owner I think it would be helpful to have one in case of emergencies. Maybe I’ll see you at the training.

I can’t wait to hear more about your wedding too!

[thetopzytender]

Travels!

Hello to all my Patrons!

Sorry I’ve been missing in action! I’ve been away on business for the past several weeks, helping a startup bar in New York get their drink menu finalized. 

I’m getting back in the swing of things so I’m sorry if this months drink comes out a little late! On that note, don’t be afraid to send me some requests for a flavor profile or even a hero!

Your Bartender,

Miko <3

[solasdaite]

Update?

Hey guys.

I just wanted to update everyone. Or anyone who pays attention, I guess.

I won’t be at the hospital for a few days. I guess I’ve been working too much. My supervisor at the hospital has… suggested, I take some time for vacation.

I’ll still be getting updated on Midoriya=san’s case since that’s still active. But since all my others are closed I’ve been told to take a break otherwise.

So, I guess I have some free time on my hands?

You’re right MIdoriya-san. This sucks.

[thetopzytender]

Come by the bar, you’re always welcome here. ❤️

[thetopzytender]

Happy Birthday Deku!

With a drink in my hand I raise a toast to you.

I hope in the year to come that all obstacles you face are easily surmountable. I hope that your love and relationship with Zero flourishes. I hope that your determination continues to inspire heroes and citizens alike. And finally I hope that you find so much happiness that your heart overflows with it. You deserve this and so much more for everything you do as our Symbol of Hope.

Ok let’s talk about this drink:

I wont lie and say this drink was easy to come up with. What you don’t see in that picture of my notebook is the four or five crossed out attempts at making this drink. I’ve only met Deku a few times, twice at my bar and once at a meet and greet, those and a few messages we traded here on tumblr are what I based my drink on. Deku is sweet, he’s sassy, he’s smart. Honest to god Zero if I wasn’t a lesbian down to my bones I’d have gone after him. You’re a very lucky gentleman.

I wanted his drink to be as unique as him, and of course, green. I also wanted it to knock you on you’re ass without you realizing it will. The final result will do just this. With out further ado;

The Deku:

1 oz White Rum (I use Bicardi)

1 1/2 oz Kinky Green (Kinky is a Vodka Blend)

1 1/2 oz Hypnotiq

2 oz Lemonade (homemade is best of you can)

2 oz Ginger Ale

Serve over ice in a highball glass and garnish with as many cherrys you want (don’t forget to tie the stems).

Hopefully we’ll see you all tomorrow night at the drink unveiling at Bottoms Up! If you can’t make it there our pop up bar will be at the Beach Party Sunday Night! Remember to drink responsibly and have fun!

And to the amazing @the-wonder-duo we wish both of you an amazing weekend, and Happy birthday Midoriya-kun!

~Miko and the Bottoms Up Staff.

[thetopzytender]

A looooong overdue post.

Hello all my boozy brethren! I pretty sure I owe you the drinks for May and June, life has been super duper crazy. With out further ado I give you not one but TWO drinks;

The New York Sunset:

I’ve visited New York city so many times in my travels, I consult at a lot of bars out there along with making cocktails for high end parties and events. At one point I was down on Liberty Island watching the sun set and i loved the colors that it turned the Statue of Liberty. This drink, its color and glass, are meant to mimic that beauty. It might now be spot on but it’s beautiful none the less. This drink is tropical in nature, and it was meant to be released for the Dogabah Beach Clean up, but alas it’s been postponed. Hope you enjoy!

1 part Malibu Coconut rum

1 part Hypnotic

2 parts pineapple juice

Server in a hurricane glass over ice. 

The ounce amount will depend on how big your glass is, for example my glass is a pint glass so I had 3 oz of each liquor and 6 oz of pineapple juice over ice. You’d do the same measurements for a larger hurricane glass.

Our next drink goes out to @heroscup, @madamexplody, and @nyanchen

The Sugar Crisp Shot

You guys won’t be able to get enough of this shot (・ωｰ)～☆

1 3/4 oz Rumchata

1/4 oz Goldschlager

So the fun thing about this shot is that it’s layered. You don’t have to do this, it’s purely aesthetic, but its fun. You’ll need a 2 oz shot glass for this, first you pour in the rumchata, then you take an upside down spoon and poor the goldschlager over the spoon slowly till you get to the top. 

Just a reminder to check out our upcoming events. As we all know Pro Hero and Symbol of Hope Deku’s birthday will be coming up soon! We’ll be celebrating all weekend with @the-wonder-duo at heart! I’ll be releasing his drink recipe on Friday 07/13, we’ll be celebrating his birthday at the bar and the drink will be added to the menu on Saturday 07/14, and his actual birthday is on Sunday 07/15. On Sunday we’ll have our mobile bar set up at Dogabah Beach for a birthday party for Deku’s fans to celebrate our hero! Below is a teaser of his drink! I hope we see you all at some point this weekend, it’s going to be fun.

Happy drinking until next time! ~From the Bottom’s Up Family

[the-wonder-duo]

Well, I’m not sure if it qualifies as a date, exactly, but...

On Saturday, Kacchan and I will be celebrating Tanabata together. 

[the-wonder-duo]

Of course! 

Tanabata is also known as the Star Festival. According to legend, two lovers— Orihime and Hikoboshi, who respresent the stars Vega and Altair —are separated by the Milky Way. As long as the skies are clear, they’re allowed to meet during the seventh day of the seventh month. 

Orihime, seamstress, fashioned beautiful clothes by a heavenly river. Because she worked so hard, always working to create more beautiful clothes, she was afraid that she wouldn’t ever find love. 

Her father, a god who loved her dearly, couldn’t bear to see her lonely and arranged for her to meet Hikoboshi, who was a cow herder. He lived on the other side of the Milky Way. 

The two instantly fell in love and were married. 

But, because they were so wrapped up in each other, their love and devotion to each other caused them to stop performing their duties. Orihime stopped making her beautiful clothing, and Hikoboshi’s cows started to wander the heavens. Becoming angry, Orihime’s father forbade the lovers to see each other ever again. 

Orihime was devasted. She begged her father to allow them to be together. Orihime’s father loved his daughter very much, so he proclaimed that, if Orihime committed herself to her responsibilities as a weaver, the two lovers would be allowed to meet each other once a day every year again— that’s where the seventh day of the seventh month comes into play. 

There’s a catch, though. Once the special day came, Orihime and Hokiboshi found the river too difficult to cross, so Orihime sent magpies to make a bridge for her. If the weather is good, Orihime will be able to cross the river. If it rains, the lovers must wait another year to see each other again. 

Festivals celebrating this event are usually held between now and August; the festival that we’ll be attending in our hometown is actually held on the 7th itself. Many people dress in traditional clothing, and there’s all sorts of yummy street foods available to eat! There’s fireworks and festivities, and it’s a lot of fun! 

Many people also write wishes on brightly colored paper strips. These bits of paper are called tanzaku. We usually hang them on trees! Once the festival is over, they’re usually sent floating down a river or they’re burned. 

[thetopzytender]

I’m glad you two will be celebrating together! The bar will be having its own celebration, including special music up on the patio under the stars. Stop by if you have time!

[thetopzytender]

I CAN’T BELIEVE IT

It is honor to be invited to @the-wonder-duo’s wedding. I’m happy to attend and can’t wait to see what you plan!

[solasdaite]

I’m sure you’ve all heard about Deku’s miraculous recovery at this point. I know their office released the news and the media outlets haven’t stopped talking about it yet.

Just like I’m sure you’re all aware that his hero partner Ground Zero proposed last night, via Deku’s blog post.

It is true that the fungi has disappeared from Deku’s body and that the team who has been treating him here at Hosu Medical University Hospital believe he will make a full recovery.

I’m not really here to talk about that much further- everyone knows that I can’t comment on the case in detail.

Although- I think I can say that words will never be able to encompass how happy I am that he’s going to be okay. I can’t tell you how relieved I am that the Duo will stay just that- together, as they were always meant to be.

I grew up on stories of fairy tales and romantic concoctions about love conquering all obstacles and triumphing through impossible odds. I learned that they’re just that, stories made to make us believe in true love and hope for someone that will stand by us through eternity. We all keep hoping for that person who matches us entirely, our “soul mate”.

Real life isn’t a story though. It’s painful and complicated and hard. We’re lucky to gather friends and family around us to help us weather the storm, to make the moments enjoyable, to help heal bruised hearts as we learn that there isn’t always true love and happily ever after.

That’s what I thought, even though it hurt me to admit it.

I was wrong though.

I ran the tests on Deku, and there’s nothing there anymore. The scars and breaks may remain, but the vines and flowers are gone. Nothing medical was going to cure him. Nothing in the world, not my quirk or anyone else’s, was going to keep him alive. We only gave him borrowed time.

I know a few facts:

Midoriya Izuku was going to die any day, any moment. He’d run out of time.

Bakugou Katsuki is the reason he’s alive now. The love the two of them share is the reason Deku is alive and has a future again.

I don’t know of a love more true than that, in any story told through time.

@the-wonder-duo

I wish you nothing but love and happiness moving forward. I was honored to see the smiles on your faces today. The love that’s clear between you is a radiant glow brighter than anything I’ve ever seen.

Be happy. You two have more than earned it.

[thetopzytender]

We couldn’t be happier!

Good Morning to all our patrons that follow us here on tumblr!

I was just going to bed this morning when I saw Pro-Hero Deku’s post and I’m so happy for him and Ground Zero. Normally I’m not in to throwing impromptu events, but this announcement calls for celebration! The bar will open at the normal time and we’ll be having a toast to their well being at 9 PM. 

Anyone who comes and and shows me that they follow the blog will get one free drink, and all hero drinks will be half off from 6-9 PM leading up to the toast. 

Also here’s and updated schedule of events at the bar coming up in the next month

Monday June 25th: Engagement Celebration and New Drink release!

Saturday June 30th: PRIDE Party, wear your most flamboyant outfit and come out and support our LGBTQ+ community.

July 7th: Party Under the Stars, celebration of the Star Festival

July 15th: DEKU'S BIRTHDAY! Drink Release on 07/14

Hope to see everyone soon! @the-wonder-duo congratulations again and well wishes from the Bottoms Up family!

[the-wonder-duo]

Kacchan asked me to marry him.

And I said yes. 

[thetopzytender]

CONGRATULATIONS @the-wonder-duo

To all my patrons: tonight at the bar we’ll have a toast to our heroes at 9 pm. If you show me that you’re following the blog your drink is free. 18+ only my dudes.

[the-wonder-duo]

It’s with a heavy heart that I have to announce that the DMB Clean Up Day event has been cancelled.

Unfortunately, it looks as if Ground Zero and I will be a little busy during the day that we’d planned to spend with you all. 

After contacting the medical staff, Pro Heroes, and instructors that were slotted to supervise the activities, we’ve decided that it would be best to postpone this service until a later date. 

Anyone who’d been looking forward to the gathering has my upmost apologies— I’m really sorry about the cancellation, and I feel terrible about having to cancel on all of you, especially after seeing how excited some of you were. 

I hope that we can all gather to clean up the beach together soon! 

[thetopzytender]

I’m sorry to hear about this, the staff and I were looking forward to this. Once you’re feeling better let us know and we’ll help you plan the next clean up Deku! We want to help our community in any way possible.

[avalypuff]

so I was looking at pics of Team Skull’s base, HQ, whatever it is.

It looks pretty cool. You can see Guzma’s got a lot of bottles and shit, and he has some serious talent as an interior designer, and– wait… 

what is…?

omg…

[sometipsygnostalgic]

reblog this post to bless your hive of Scum and Villainy

[fungalzombie-deactivated2019031]

time to pick up crosstitch again.

[w3rewolf-th3rewolf]

I made a pattern if anyone wants to use it…

[solasdaite]

Sorry, no gossip here.

I’ve received a lot of messages from people asking me about the case since it became clear that I am treating the Pro Hero Deku. I wanted to take a minute to clear up a few things.

It’s public knowledge that I was at the same coffee shop when he collapsed, and he has acknowledged that I am part of the team working to find a cure for the quirk that is currently attacking his body.

Yes, I am working with a team of highly skilled men and women to  finding a cure.

Yes, I did assist the surgical team soon after Deku was brought in to the hospital through usage of my quirk.

Yes, the plants reacted to aspects of my quirk.

Again, that is all public knowledge, chosen to be released  by the patient, Midoriya Izuku, via the blog he runs with his hero partner.

That’s all I am going to say about the case.

That’s all I can say about the case. What Deku chooses to tell his fans is his decision. Due to my oath as a medical professional and my personal ethics as an individual, I am not at liberty to disclose any further information or facts.

However, there are a few things I can say that don’t deal with sensitive information.

We are working to cure him. No, I haven’t given up on finding that cure. I am not going to be giving up. I wish I could snap my fingers and cure him, but that’s not how medicine works often times. Just because we have healing quirks doesn’t mean everything can be fixed quickly. It’s a complicated case which means that the answer is likely just as complex, but we are working on it.

I’ve already publicly stated on this blog and will do so to anyone who asks me in person- I am not going to let him die, no matter what it costs me. If I can save him, I will.

I am not afraid of him. He’s one of the kindest and sweetest people I’ve ever been fortunate enough to meet. Why would I be afraid of him?

You’re welcome. He’s one of my favorites too. (Don’t tell my brother!)

Gee. I wondered why everyone at the hospital keeps looking at me when they say Doctor Ilyrico. Thanks for clearing that up!

Look: We’re talking about someone’s life. If I wasn’t qualified, I wouldn’t be on the team. It’s that simple. I work with pros every single day. 

I’m also sure that neither Ground Zero nor Deku would have a problem asking for my removal if they felt that was needed. My age has nothing to do with this.

Thank you for your understanding.

[thetopzytender]

Melody is one of the best doctors I know and I can attest that every member of her family is an over achiever. She will do everything in her power to help Deku get better.

And Mel? Please make sure to take care of yourself too. If you need me to come over and cook for you I have people I trust to watch the bar. Even if you don’t work here anymore you’re still part of our family 🧡.

[heroscup]

Happy Birthday All Might!

It’s been a while, huh? We all miss you dearly, but we’re still trudging forward, like you’d want us to.

Today is a special day. The United Smash is being sold today, alongside the GZ Kick and Bunny Hop. Proceeds, as always, will be going to charities. Would never dream of taking profits from the Hero Drinks.

Come in and say “I am here!” in your most booming voice with your biggest smile!

[thetopzytender]

AHHHH KINO!

Why didn’t I think to make an All Might drink!!! Tell ya what, everyone who comes into the bar today and orders one of my hero drinks will get a free all might themed Jello shot! Hopefully we see you out tonight!

[ptrckstmph-blog]

be kind to yourself. remember that your journey is your own. don’t punish yourself for not having accomplished as much as x person at age 16, 17, 25, 40– their journey is not yours. your journey is not theirs. just because they are “doing more” than you are at this moment in time, or at that moment in time, does not mean you have wasted your time. you have had different experiences, circumstances, and opportunities. it is not a matter of fault on your part. you will get there, day by day, no matter how long it takes.
