Remi In The Kitchen

remi in the kitchen

remi’s always down to learn about how to cook but her mom and rei were like there is no way we can have remi in a kitchen she will set our humble abode ablaze

so her culinary expertise extends as far as the toaster and microwave

and even then she still manages to burn whatever she has in there bc she forgets to set a timer

the inside of the toaster starts conjuring flames when her poptart melts and the sugar gets into places it shouldn’t have

… arlo teaching remi how to cook

it can go either two ways: we can get the legendary scene where arlo is showing remi the proper way to slice ingredients by putting his hands over hers while she’s holding the knife or remi sets off the smoke alarm and arlo struggles to air out the place before he gets an eviction notice

for the former it’s one of those moments where remi is the one who gets flustered instead

arlo’s completely in his head explaining to her what they’re going to do next and she is not focusing at all

she asks him to do it again partially because she didn’t pick up what he was saying and also bc she wants him to stay in proximity to her

arlo is patient with remi, he takes a lot of pride in making good food so he doesn’t mind repeating himself

(somehow that makes it even worse for her)

her face is as heated as a furnace by the time arlo steps away and he’s like “huh… we didn’t use the stove or anything… do i need to turn on the vent” and remi’s like no!! it’s fine!!

love to think that this is before canon remlo so the both of them are just plain oblivious

arlo wondering whether remi was allergic to what she was chopping up and remi doesn’t even acknowledge why arlo is making her act up like that

remi nicking her finger on the knife and arlo insisting on band-aiding it

she’s like “it’s no big deal you’re never this considerate” and arlo is like “rei would kill me if he finds out i let you cook here so you better heal up asap” 

vs canon remlo where arlo would kiss the cut and i ascend into another plane of reality

either way the whole room is an entire mess by the end of it but they somehow managed to avoid setting his place on fire

7 Seeds Week, Day 7!

Theme of the day: Family

Starring: Semimaru, Koruri and Haru

Day 7: Family

Koruri stares as Arata crawls over to a little doll Kurumi has made, pulling on its arm and giggling happily. The air class representative smiles as well, though she can’t understand what the little one finds so funny. It’s too bad that Arata won’t be able to answer even if she asks.

“What are you doing?” Haru asks as he comes over. Koruri, without taking her eyes off of the baby, answers: “Kurumi-san went to the bathroom, so she asked me to watch after Arata for a moment.”

“Babysitting duty, huh” Haru says, sitting next to Koruri “Been a while since I’ve done that.”

Koruri turns to look at him in surprise “You used to take care of babies?”

“Just some relatives children during family gatherings” Haru said with a shrug “Not ones this small though; the youngest ones were around one and half years old.”

“But you still did” Koruri says, looking back at Arata “I never even saw a really baby after my own years as one before I saw Arata.”

Haru isn’t surprised; that’s honestly what he’d thought.

“Did you have a big family?” Koruri asks out of the blue, and after the first shock, Haru realizes he has never really talked about his life, aside from music related things, with her.

“Just me and my parents, but they both had a lot of siblings, so I had a fair deal of cousins” he tells “Not that we spent all that much time together after we grew up.”

Koruri hummed thoughtfully, saying: “But you still had a family… I don’t even know how to be a part of one” she turned to look at Haru again “How does one do it?”

Haru froze completely, not sure how to answer to that. To him, family was just something that had always been there, something he took for granted, something he really didn’t need to think about. But of course, Koruri was different. Everyone in team Summer A were different.

“Well, that’s… I don’t know” he admitted “To me, it just always was there.”

“Oh” Koruri says, a little disappointed “…I wonder if Kurumi-san would know? Or perhaps Chimaki-chan?”

Haru tensed. He knew there was nothing between Koruri and Chimaki, but the two had gotten so close lately that it unnerved him. He was fully aware that he was being petty, but he couldn’t help himself.

“Chimaki’s parents ditched him when he was young, you know” Semimaru said as he walked over, having been listening in. Pointing at Haru, he says: “So his idea of a family probably differs a lot from this guy’s.”

Haru didn’t like Semimaru. The guy was rude and put his nose in other people’s business. Huffing, he says: “And I suppose you come from a perfect family?”

“Ha!” Semimaru laughed “I was put in to team Summer B; what do you think?!”

“…” Haru didn’t answer that. Well, he supposed something had to be wrong with the guy’s homelife for him to turn out like that in the first place.

“But you know, while my mom was a drunk and all, she was still great in her own way”

“What about your father?” Koruri asked, and Haru wondered if she knew that it could be considered a little insensitive.

“Never knew the guy; not even sure who he was” Semimaru said with a shrug “But some families are like that; there are many kinds, many ways to be a family. So, the point is” he grinned at Koruri “Don’t worry about it. If it works, it’s the right way!”

He walked off after that with Koruri watching him go with wide eyes. Well aware of this, Haru asked: “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing” Koruri answered, looking at Haru again “Do you think Semimaru-kun is right? I mean, it made sense to me, but- “

“No, I get it too. He put it well” Haru agreed “Each family is different.”

“So it’s true” Koruri said, looking at the direction Semimaru had gone to “He’s surprisingly smart in his own way.”

Inwardly, Haru was seething. Did he had to be wary of every Summer B guy stealing his girl?!

“Failures? More like ladies’ men…”

With how crazy and messed up the world is now, I’d like to go back to one of the cutest moments in UnOrdinary.

I know dis isnt the best. But I tried okay :'>

arlo being touch deprived (a series of multiple events)

i feel like this deserves to become a subcategory of its own in the remlos masterlist

13-14 b.r (before remi) arlo has had 0 physical contact with anyone so once they’re canon you can only imagine how unused arlo is to any increment of affection he receives

remi reading with arlo and when she snakes her arm underneath his to turn to the next page so they’re intertwined he’s cupping the bottom half of his face with his palm edward cullen style to cover his blush

she looks up at him and he averts his head to avoid getting exposed until she tugs his earlobe and he reluctantly meets her eyes with his face tomato red

he’s like 😑😑😑 and remi’s like “ok ok fine i’ll give you space ☺️” 

the entire time after they continue reading but half of remi’s concentration is on arlo doing his best to focus on the book while he keeps rereading the same paragraphs 3 times in a row

down bad

down so bad

there’s virtually no way to recover from that

it would get too much for arlo at one point when remi asks him to turn a page but also reaches over intentionally

he just puts his hand over hers and locks lips

at this rate they’re on a mission to have pda in literally every single location

the librarian: i don’t get paid enough for this

they get kicked from the library (wave goodbye to your self help books arlo!!)

he’s sitting outside in defeat and remi is like “round 2?”

arlo: this is all ur fault

remi: and what makes you think that :3

he just gives her that resigned look while his face is still flushed pink

(honestly this would’ve totally happened in canon except remi wouldn’t notice the way he’s trying to contain himself bc her simply existing has arlo a mess. as it should be

she’d be oblivious and they’d argue over nothing as per usual)

imagining them both tangled up in each other and then blyke or isen knocks and arlo is giving them the darren nightmare stare bc they’re interrupting their time 

blysen are OVERR

they disappear due to unforeseen circumstances (arlo being mad af)

anyone who interrupts remi and arlo are mysteriously never seen again

they need their quality time or else arlo’ll pull a patrick bateman

remi opens the door all normal like “what’s going on 😊 what do you need” meanwhile arlo is envisioning all the different ways he could skin them and hang them over a spit roast

doesn’t drop the death glare until remi jumps back into bed and flings her arm over him

remi constantly tells him to relax but he simply cannot

they’re messing with the order and balance of his domestic life

she is helping him compensate for the 18 years of deprived physical affection and they are interfering!!

steam comes out of his ears till she takes a hold of his hand and you can see the fight practically leave his body

she lightly ruffles his head once and his eyebrows visibly unknit

remi’s second passive is controlling arlo’s blood pressure

can either lower it to a reasonable level or spike it up high enough for him to start passing out

remlo on valentine’s day

inbetween remi preparing for the safe house opening and how arlo is with plans, is anyone really surprised remlo would be super crazy about this holiday

remi plans out the perfect valentine’s a month in advance

arlo: this has to be. the most immaculate day. ever

he buys remi roses and bc remi is a little demon that knows exactly how to get under arlo’s skin she brings him a box of white chocolate candy

if uno was a true school shounen manga, they’d probably have fanclubs that give them stacks of gifts

remi goes to her first period desk and there’s mountains of chocolates and letters and enough flowers to make a florist pass away

she thanks the people who gave her things and they all end up fainting on the spot

arlo is the same too but the difference between them is that while remi takes the candy arlo sweeps them off of his desk because he would only accept gifts on this day from his future wife as a formal declaration of dedication

“this isn’t from remi…. what is this… poison”

there would be a dozen classmates hiding behind the classroom door watching his every move wondering “will he accept the gifts this year”

they collectively sigh in disappointment when he dumps them all into the back of the room

during lunch remi whips out the heart-shaped straws for the milkshake they’re going to share in the cafeteria for their cute couple photo (yes they are literally THAT highschool couple 🤢)

after school… cupcake bakery classes??

remlo together are way too chaotic, the teacher would get so sick of them because of how they aren’t concentrating (the flirting 🙄)

arlo “accidentally” gets batter on remi’s nose so he can lean down to lick it off and the teacher is like “YOU’LL GET SALMONELLA”

when the cupcakes are in the oven she can’t wait to get rid of them

remi: oh can we go out while they’re baking

the teacher, swinging open the front door: PLEASE

while they decorate remi secretly nabs the toppings leaving arlo wondering why they’re already out

she’s having the time of her life making little frosting smiley faces and hearts meanwhile arlo is sweating over how to ration the frosting under the time crunch they’re under

remi is fine with the cupcakes being a little messy as long as they’re still cute and taste good but arlo loses it

“YOU PUT WAY TOO MUCH ICING. IT’S TOTALLY GOING TO TOPPLE OVER ITSELF ON THE RIDE HOME”

in his head ofc. because today is supposed to go perfect and he will not mess it up

remi frosts a super sloppy cupcake and arlo is like. thats so ugly what the hell is it supposed to be and she’s like “🤬 🤬 US”

as revenge for the batter, while they’re cleaning up remi flicks some water on him while they’re both at the sink

the cupcakes do not survive the ride home they are inhaled immediately

2 dessert lovers + cupcakes = 0 cupcakes left over

they go out to windowshop and burn through every single one of them on the way

arlo plans on keeping at least half of the dozen they made but remi offers him one and then two and then by the time he realies he’s been blindly accepting them there’s nothing left to gram

they reserve a seat at some tiny niche restaurant with a view of the town

as soon as they get to their seating remi’s already looking over the rail to watch the sunset

remi: i’m SOOOOOO FULL!! i have literally NO idea how we’re going to get through dinner [inhales the penne alla vodka]

her stomach = tarturus

they try to reenact the lady and tramp spaghetti scene to no avail

the noodle keeps breaking off and sauce hits them both in the face, arlo gets a heart attack in fear of it getting on his cashmere

towards the end of their dinner, remi would be like “thanks for today 🥰” nd arlo just smiles fondly and kisses her forehead

they catch an uber and remi is out like a light the second they step inside of the car

if the next day they have school arlo tries to get remi to finish her work that night instead of the morning of but between the food and remi dozing off over her books he gives up and scoops her up and into bed

+ bonus headcanons:

remi’s photo album is FILLED

arlo’s ig is literally just one pic of wellston from the rooftop captioned “order” and another pic of him, remi, and rei

meanwhile remi uploads their cutest pics with captions like “with asslo AGAIN”

everyone wishes they were them so bad

“everyone @ arlo nd tell him my cupcake’s cuter” and sera is the only one gutsy enough to comment that

arlo just makes the -____- face when he opens up the notif

in the midst of all the ultra 1920x1080 hd aesthetic shots are all their ugly candids, posted onto the close friends story (isen is screenshotting)

arlo always gets really good standstill shots of the scenery and remi when she’s not paying attention

never shows them to her so whenever she’s scrolling through his phone she’s like “WTF THIS WOULD’VE MADE SUCH A GOOD COVER PHOTO”

he’s like “okay so why don’t you just post it now” and she’s like “😡😡 it’s too late u wouldnt understand”

whenever remi’s choosing photos and goes to arlo for a second opinion he always picks out the ones she doesn’t like

she’s like “wtf why that one it’s so blurry” but it’s the pic where she’s smiling the brightest or something

arlo doesn’t explain himself ever so that combined with his ig posts makes her believe he’s just a boomer (not incorrect) when his personal favorite photos of her are the ones where she’s completely in the moment
