sure! you okay?

What spoiler tags are you going to use?

haha it’s ok i understand. timezones are a nightmare that’s why i keep self reblgging trying to cover the most timezones i can

I know some people mind find this obnoxious but i also know that some people are not awake at the same time i post. Or are following too many people.

i’ll take every opportunity to praise marinette for being a smart girl!

so i am going to guess that she choose the fox instead of the bee bc we know the fox miraculous is capable of creating illusions and since they need to trick the sapoties for the plan to work, they need trixx.

Was it the one with the gifs, because I didn’t actually think that was bad, but I did see a few doing a general comparison between the two and whose feelings are more mature. Which I think is a little whack, considering both have displayed maturity and immaturity before when it comes to the person they like. Just this episode Chat was also at his most immature when he expected something that he knew wasn’t going to happen. 

(( Yesterday I asked folks to help me with ideas for a Ralph & Vanellope centric fic, and @dannybird22 delivered! She asked me to write a story based on “Ralph and Vanellope having to rake leaves. And failing.” This one’s a Human AU, because I wasn’t clever enough to figure out where Autumn leaves would be found in Litwak’s Arcade, haha! Hope you enjoy, and feel free to send me more story ideas! ))

Ralph rolled up to the curb with his pickup truck and reached across the passenger seat to open the door.

 “Hey Ralph!” Vanellope greeted, tossing her backpack on the cab floor before hopping into the seat and buckling in.

 “Hey kid,” the large man replied, slowly peeling away from the school lot and onto the main road. “How was learning?”

 “Boring, as usual. I am so ready for this weekend!”

 “About that, just reminding you that we’re staying at Felix’s while he’s out of town and—“

 “I know!” the girl bounced in her seat. “I love going to Felix’s house! He’s got cable, and the Internet!”

 “Yeah, yeah,” Ralph shook his head with a smile. “But it’s not gonna be all fun and games. He did ask us to do one thing for him while he’s gone.”

 “What?” the girl asked.

 “We gotta rake the leaves in his yard.”

 “Noooo!” Vanellope groaned. “I’m still sore from when we did our leaves!”

 “Kid, his yard is tiny compared to ours,” Ralph argued. “It won’t be that hard. Plus, it’s the nice thing to do.”

 “Fine,” the girl sighed, slouching in her seat. “Wake me up when we’re there.”

Half an hour later, Ralph placed one of his big hands on the girl’s head and ruffled her hair.

 “We’re here,” he said gently when she looked up at him with bleary eyes. One handed, he turned the wheel of his truck and parked it in the driveway.

 As soon as Ralph unlocked the front door to the house, Vanellope bounded in, dropping her things in the entryway and taking a deep breath.

“Mmm, It always smells like pie in here,” the girl giggled as she took the place in. She noticed a card sitting on the dinning room table just to her left. “Oh, he left us a note!”

Ralph grabbed the card just before Vanellope, and began to read it.

“Lets see here…’Hope you two enjoy your weekend and thank you for looking after the house while I’m gone. There’s a pie from Mary in the fridge as well as some spaghetti I made—’”

Vanellope pumped her fist in the air with a resounding “Yes!”

“’Sorry to ask you to rake the leaves, but the weatherman says it’s going to snow before I get back.’ And he has attached here, one butterscotch sucker for someone he calls ‘Princess?’ Hmm, wonder who that could be…”

“Oh me, me, that’s me!” Vanellope jumped up and grabbed the card, ripping off the lollipop taped to the inside. Unwrapping it, she stuck it in her mouth with a sly grin. “I like that handyman, he spoils me,” she said smugly.  

“He sure does,” Ralph agreed, although seeming a bit less approving. “Ok, you’ve had you’re treat, now lets get raking those leaves before it gets dark.”

“What? Can’t we just do that tomorrow?” the girl pleaded.

“Nope! The sooner we do it, the sooner we’re done,” Ralph was already heading out the back door to get to the shed. Not able to really argue with the logic her guardian presented, she begrudgingly followed.

“I dub thee ‘Princess of the Leaves,’” Ralph took the handle of a rake and tapped the girl’s shoulders with it before handing the tool over.

“Why thank you, my lovable, yet stinky court jester!” Vanellope quipped, taking the rake in her hands with a curtsey.

“Why don’t you start with the front yard and then help me here when you’re done,” Ralph suggested. There was only one little tree in Felix’s front yard, and it would be a relatively easy task for the 9 year old to handle herself.

“Roger!” Vanellope saluted and set off to her work. Within 10 minutes, she had successfully corralled all of the fallen leaves into a neat pile. But before rejoining Ralph, she sat on the porch swing for a few more minutes, enjoying her lollipop. 

The girl figured that if she drew out her time up front, the further along the big guy would be in the back, resulting in less effort on her part. And her plan seemed to work; when she returned to the backside of the house, a very large, cushy pile of leaves was taking form between the two big oak trees. Ralph had his back turned to the gate she entered through, and Vanellope simply could not resist any longer…

 “Charge!”

 Vanellope ran and bounded straight into the leaf pile, causing them to fly everywhere.

“Hey!” Ralph shouted, turning to the girl who laughed and brushed the leaves off of her hoodie.
