So uh- this is based on churches I have been to. So please don't get mad this isn't supposed to be that religiously based anyway. It's just corn. enjoy-

Just corn 🌽

And it's been a while since I've been to church so I may be rusty-


Indiana slipped quietly into Ohio's room, dressed in his finest Wednesday dress. Nothing too fancy, just a simple white dress with corn sown onto it and some matching white heels. "Ohio? Wake up hun, we have to get ready for church." Ohio groaned quietly and opened his eyes. He smiled, found of the view he got. He rolled out of bed slowly so he didn't wake up his sleeping southerner, Alabama slept with him tonight, and neither wanted to wake him up.

Something about meth-addicted snakes in the southern hall...? He couldn't remember. Indiana gave him a quick peck on the cheek before hurrying him to get ready. Ohio did and threw on a suit similar to D.C's other than his yellow tie. Then he sped out the room, closing the door a little too loudly. Perhaps he did wake up Alabama.

The two went hand in hand down the hall. Church time was one of the only times Ohio and Michigan or... Any of the midwest came together for one common belief.

Corn was great.

And it needed to be celebrated.

However, to avoid any interruptions it was always held very early in the backyard. Chairs were normally set up and Alaska was paid to make them a podium, for reasons he never got answers to... huh. Anyway. As the pair arrived they were greeted by the devil himself. Or Michigan, if you will.

"Hello, Indiana and Ohio. Wonderful morning right?" He asked, a huge smile plastered on his face. Indiana nodded and giggled.

"Yeah no yeah, it is pretty out. You weren't followed by anyone were you?" Ohio asked, his grip on Indiana's hand tightened a little. Despite their pure hatred for one another, they had an unspoken agreement to never fight on church days, tensions were still high as normal. It's not like they would agree with each other publicly, that's the sign of humanity's end right there.

Michigan shook his head and asked them the same. They had the same answer as he did so everything was fine. Eventually, everyone settled in their seats waiting for Illinois to preach the greatness of corn to them. He never needed to, everyone knew how absolutely fantastic corn was. But still, it's good to be reminded. Not like anyone would forget anyway.

Illinois came soon after, dressed head to toe in black. Black shirt, shoes, pants, everything. His shirt had corn on the front of out. An unknown figure chucked a little bit at the sight, hidden away from everyone else.

"Corn." He said, his voice booming with passion and loud.

"Corn, Everyone repeated.

"What is corn?" he began. Pacing back and forth across the grass. "Is it a delicacy from the heavens? Or simply something that gives us money? Maybe it is even both." He paused and grabbed a small yellow notebook off his podium. Illinois flipped through a couple of pages and stopped one in particular. "In chapter 321 of the Cornicopia, it states. 'Thu that disrespect thy corn may lose thy kneecaps. Thu that loves and cares for maze may have a plentiful future.'"

The figure hiding now grew a bit closer interested in what weird topic he just so happened to walk in on.

+Time skip because my brain cells are leaving me+

The church service had ended and now everyone was enjoying the greatness that was corn. A small potluck always occurred after their worship. Indiana, Ohio, and Wisconsin, who to almost everyone's surprise wasn't drunk, we're talking about the delectable maze. The Buckeye State noticed something move in the house, so he quickly excused himself to check on the matter. Ohio was comfortable leaving Indiana with Wisconsin more than any Midwesterner. Mostly because they were drinking buddies.

Ohio rushed over to the house and when he entered a hand grabbed him. "OPE! WHAT THE FU-" Another hand covered his mouth.

"Darlin' you don't wanna wake the rest of the house do you?" Ohio knew exactly who it was now. Ashamed that he had woken Alabama he looked away. "What was all that outside anyway? Is that way you're dressed so nice and haven't touched wine yet?" Asked the communist- I mean yellowhammer state.

"Its church," he spoke softly, the church was a secret for reasons. And if anyone else knew he'd probably get thrown out of the midwest or... Something. "Indiana and I go every Wednesday. We really just talk about corn... I think you heard that already huh...?" Alabama smiled, a little hurt that he couldn't participate with his boyfriends. But at least now he knows about it.

"Now. Was that Illinois up there preachin'? I ain't ever heard him preach. And. Oh my god, Wisconsin is sober!" Ohio laughed, maybe he could convince the others to at least let Alabama come. He seemed somewhat interested anyway. "Aww... Indiana looks adorable in that dress..."

"Alright big marshmallow. I need to get back to the church, I'll bring you some corn as an apology for waking you up this early." Ohio whispered, Alabama grinned.

"Lookin' forward to it. Just, no corn from Michigan." Ohio gasped and kissed Alabama. When they broke apart the smaller man had the biggest smile on his face.

"You get more than just corn now."
