The Peanuts - The Right Way (Prompt 446: Dessert)

Title: The Right Way
Fandom: The Peanuts
Rating: General Audiences
Notes: inspired by a gif of Snoopy making an ice cream sundae.
The round-headed kid never did this quite right. You had to drizzle a little of the chocolate syrup into the dish, then scoop the ice cream into perfect spheres, and drop the first one in, press it a little, put the second on, and push it just a little to stay put.
It was best to make a little divot for the cherry to rest in, before drizzling the syrup over the ice cream. The cherry went in the divot then, before putting a spiral of whip cream all around.
Seriously, why did Snoopy have to do it for them?!

Trails of Cold Steel: Moon Door IV: Beyond

![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
Fandom: Trails of Cold Steel
Pairings/Characters:
Laura S. Arseid/Duvalie, Ines/Ennea, Victor S. Arseid/McBurn
appearances by other assorted Cold Steel characters and hints of other ships Rating: M
Length: 22442 words
Creator Links: Rosie_Rues
Theme:
Grief/Mourning, Dreamsharing, Recovery, Enemies to Lovers, Enemies to Friends to Lovers, changing roles in life, loss of limb
Summary: With the Great Twilight over, Duvalie follows Laura home to Legram. She's not entirely sure why she's here, or when she's going to leave, but she can't bring herself to regret her choice.
Meanwhile, Victor's dreaming of the only man in the universe still willing to offer him a challenge...
Reccer's Notes: While I have read this fic several times, the most recent was some time ago, I always remember it as being roughly half of one ship and half of another- I note this here because one of those ships is M/M. In my rereading, I see the balance is more 2/3 to 1/3, with the bulk of it being the theme-compliant Laura/Duvalie, who begins as something of a lost and reluctant guest in Laura's home in the wake of the loss of the woman who saved her. The emotional metamorphosis of Duvalie's canonical hostility towards Laura- already very much blunted as the story opens, turn to friendship and later towards attraction is an absolute treasure. There are many smaller moments of many relationships of varying sorts between her and otter female characters throughout the story, some of which absolutely beg for stories of their own.
The M/M ships is Victor/McBurn, and they are a prominent part of the story- really a story occurring in parallel, but separately- until it suddenly isn't. While I don't want to dwell on them in this post as they are not germane to the theme, it bears mentioning that they are there in case they would turn anyone off from reading. But I will say that their development is quite astounding, a sword master who has lost an arm, a god who has lost his world and any connection to it and what they become to each other.
This fic deals with grief in many forms, over many different kinds of loss, from loss of friends, comrades in arms, loss of a limb, loss of connection to oneself and an entire world. It's all very sensitively written, and even the absolutely fantastical loss of a god from another dimension with his entire world somehow becomes much less fantastical than one might expect.
There are also themes of many different changes in life that come with time passing and with dealing with these griefs. Oh, and the very cracky-sounding, but utterly sincerely dealt with coping with the shock of learning that your father is banging the demon god from another dimension. (that needs to be a tag, ok)
This is just one of my favorite ever fics, by one of my favorite authors.

I have finished playing... "Undertale" as of 2 days ago! Nice to soak in the narrative on my own.
Yesterday i started playing.... "Deltarune." Still just replaying Chapter 1, & I'm going to take my time; so whenever I get to either of the new chapters is up in the air.
