Interview With a Writer

I know I usually do Ewanverse or HotD, but I fell in love with this story. Thank you @bhxrdy for indulging me and answering my questions. 💜 As always, Interview With a Writer is my ongoing series of the talented souls on Tumblr and ao3, and their brilliant writing!

Dividers by @saradika

Name: bhxrdy

Story: timeless

Paring: modern Finan x original female character

Warnings: Explicit/18+, be mindful of chapter warnings!

So, when did you start writing?

I started really writing, like 10 years ago now - right into 2013. I had discovered and gotten very into (I'm shy to say) k-pop, and at the time, social media was new to me. I had joined a couple of forums here and there, but really got into the thick of it once I joined Twitter and Tumblr. It was also then - for the 1st time - that I found out about fanfiction, which was an unfamiliar concept to me.

Its a bit blurry, but I remember I started reading a few stories here and there about my fave group at the time and - I don't remember the specifics but - I had eventually started coming up with wild scenarios, small ideas here and there, that I wanted to put down on paper.

Writing in general was relatively new to me (a few years before, when I was in high school, I was writing "poems" and other notes in a massive emo-like notebook - all because of a boy of course), so the idea of creating something substantial, like the fics I had read so far, was a bit terrifying but also kind of exciting because I stumbled on something brand new to me and was dying to be part of it along with some new online friends I had made (which I unfortunately lost touch with over the years).

Within the span of 2013-2015, I wrote 28 stories (on a 3rd party site) - a mix of one shots and multi-chaptered fics, which includes 2 unfinished stories - which were left to die by 2017-2018. I had finished school and started working, which totally changed my routine. The lack of interactions in the fandom didn't help either as by then, it was pretty much dying from the band's moving on and eventually disbanding. The stories are still there, my account is still there, as I don't have the heart to take it down. I've spent so much time on them, and loved every genre I wrote. I either went fluffly fluff or super angst and dark, all of them fun to write.

After that I moved away from the fandom as well and just the k-pop scene in general. I took a hiatus from writing altogether too - the will of it had died so I mostly focused on editing. And then, I started back again in 2020, wrote a couple of stuff on Tumblr (for the 1st time) until I stopped again a few months later. The inspiration stopped and I just couldn't bring myself to write anymore. So I moved away.

And then this year, TLK happened and I just had the inspiration back on the tip of my fingers, just swirling in my brain and was dying to write it down, so I gave it another shot and wrote my first Finan fanfic. It was very rusty getting back into it after so long but I'm glad I did because I got to meet amazing people which I'm grateful for.

I have a tendency of daydreaming a lot, I can easily get lost it my own head. Finding out I could actually just write them down, liberating everything I held up and see them face to face vs. just thinking about them, became a whole new ball game.

Where did the plot for timeless come from?

It hit me out of nowhere and happened when I was re-watching The Originals (TVD spin off). I'm not sure how, but it physically/literally stopped me in my tracks (mind you I wasn't doing anything special, just going to the kitchen to get a snack) as if I was hit on the head with it, like, "Yes! omg! shit! this is it!!"

I immediately picked up my phone and started typing random thoughts and notes down for the story. It was very rough, just generalized ideas of what could happen. Some of those ideas did change trajectory from where they started, but I'm hoping they were good changes and worth the story telling 😊

Watching The Originals helped with the inspiration. I knew Finan was always meant to be cursed, I just had to figure out the best way to present it. I also drew inspiration from other witch shows like Charmed, A Discovery of Witches, and BTVS. I love anything related to the supernatural and witchcraft, so it was fun coming up with the initial layout of the story.

At the beginning, I debated if it should be a one-shot or multi-chapter based on how much I had come up with. I was 99% sure I would stick with the one-shot, but eventually the 1% took over and I just went from there...the lines took a life of their own.

Explain your interpretation of Finan. What drives him? Why is he the way he is in timeless?

I was mostly trying to stay true to how his character was built on the show and transport that in writing within the concept of the story (I'm sure I've strayed, but hopefully that's alright).

When we first meet Finan, he's infiltrated modern day life as if he was part of that world, always. Then he meets a woman on a random night and everything changes for him.

Thinking of it this way, the man has been by himself for a thousand years - the life he knew, his family, his friends - everything from his past has disappeared and he is all alone, and so he was just at this point in his existence where he was done with everything, partly discouraged from being immortal, partly begrudgingly accepting of his fate as a man who will never die.

But then he meets Rebecca, a woman who has no inkling whatsoever of who Finan is, i.e. their meet up was random passing of time in the(ir) universe. Once they meet, his life alters. She was the light at the end of a tunnel, she was a beacon of hope. Meeting her, befriending her - he found purpose again. He was ready to fight again, to live like a normal man again.

Throughout the story, I tried to focus on this aspect specifically - on the basis that he is hopeful to become a free man again. And though, there is conflict within himself, to the point he was ready to give up again, I'd like to think that Rebecca was simply someone he needed in his life. Not because of what she could do for him, but because of who she was, as a character, as a person to him. She put her life on hold for him and in return, the universe gave them something that everyone wants - to love and be loved and not be so alone in the world.

Finan, having been alone for a century, found his drive through Rebecca - through her presence, always standing by his side and fighting for him. Them falling in love was an added bonus.

Do you feel Rebecca/Bex complement Finan in this?

I would like to think that she does, because she gave him a new spark into his life, allowing him to feel truly alive again - which was something he had been deprived off since his original lifetime (i.e. since the TLK era).

With Bex's stubbornness driving him insane at times, I think it also helped him on the hope aspect - she was willing to go to the ends of the earth for him, for someone she had just met all because she wanted to make things right, to help him (a stranger, when they met) find peace. She wasn't reluctant about it nor did he even ask for help (he was the apprehensive/suspicious one). And I believe, at the end of the day, it all came down to how they felt about each other from the night they met. They unintentionally nurtured a connection they created until it became so immense, they ended up wearing it naturally, like a second skin.

Not only was she his anchor to the world of the living, Bex had become the part of him that died a long time ago. This makes me believe - in a some kind of weird way - that she was his soulmate. That, despite the heaviness of the curse, Finan was meant to cross path with her, that the(ir) universe gave him a break in the form of a kind-hearted and stubborn as a mule witch. A woman who would end up gifting him a second chance, and the opportunity to experience the good aspect of life again (as well as love).

Where did the dreams and the curse lore come from?

The dreams part of the story was inspired by The Originals, as there is the concept of the “other side” where non-resting souls are (the cemetery/graveyard scene description was inspired by the one they have on the show) - so I leveraged it and made it so Bex was forced into contact with another witch while sleeping instead of through a spell (as she had no reason to contact the dead while awake).

For the curse, I knew what I wanted out of it as it was already part of the original draft when I first came up with this story idea. I knew where it was taking me and how I would want it built - the reasoning behind it though was a bit if the tough part which I had also integrated into the storyline with Bex losing her shit over it.

Any chance of a sequel? Or do have anything else you are working on next?

So, unfortunately no sequel. But it does not mean I haven't thought of an epilogue - or kind of. Just random scenes with Bex of what life is after the ending that randomly play out in my head. I don't think I'll want to write them mostly because I want to keep the ending as is.

I'm working through a few other stories at the moment. The priority ones are for Osferth (a one-chaptered drabble for your 1k celebration, and a multi-chaptered fic which will also tap into the supernatural concept), which I am hoping to get started - officially - very soon!

I have some others dangling as well, which should eventually come soon as well - this includes Finan, Sihtric and Aemond.

Do you have a personal favorite story you'd like to share?

There are so many to choose from! We Were Something, Don't You Think? by Maggie (@inthedayswhenlandswerefew), as well as Comet Donati and Have You No Idea That You’re In Deep?

Some other favorites include Wolf-Heart by @gemini-mama, Crimes of Passion by @itbmojojoejo, Sanctuary by @st-eve-barnes, and Winterwood by @lonnson

There is also a myriad of Finan x Aisling (OFC) fics by @persephones-journey which are heart-wrenching and good.

And Fire in Her Eyes by @emilyhufflepufftlk is another amazing one for Finan fans.

Ask game? Let's fraggin' go, I'll just do the whole thing

No matter how low I fall, I feel like you'll be there

Uhhhh at Gamescom last year I complained about the lack of Transformers content and immediately froze in place as I spotted a handcrafted Optimus Prime made from recycled machine parts (It was 2k tho, so I didn't buy it)

Bc I like you a lot :]

What, wasn't that cute enough? Don't get greedy

Too many things and none of them belong on tumblr

Origin of your name ?

--- You fucking know who I am and if you don't, I'm breaking up (jk)

MY BELOVED

:3 always <3

BRO FR? DO YOU HAVE PICTURES I WANNA SEE

no u :]

I think I chose Zephyr as my online/public persona name in 2016~2017 before officially adopting it as my chosen name in 2020 when I actually came out to myself as non-binary. Fyrian is a surname that my amica invented for an original story and I literally just copied it XD As for Rhies, I don't actually remember when or why I chose it as a middle name; probably just because it sounds neat :P

I KNEW WHO YOU WERE ON THE FIRST LINE, I RECOGNIZED THAT WRITING STYLE

[rainbowgothdisaster]

For the artist asks, 2, 11 & 18 :3

2. 5 favourites of your own work?

in no particular order:

pokesona, the stars are falling (not posted, will be posted with this years redraw), jewel's house, sleeping jewel, jewel's bedroom (also an extra bcuz i really like it but couldn't find the compressed file to put here: be back soon screen)

i have a lot of fun drawing my pokesona, it was drawn completely using vector lines which was unbelievably enlightening

the stars are falling was first drawn back in 2020 and has become a way for me to compare how my art has developed over the years. 2020 only featured Jason (he/him), 2021 only had Zero (ey/em), and 2022 includes the former two plus Cleo (she/her, but shes bigender and also goes by Liam he/him), 2023 will include Jason and Ambe (she/her). its a way for me to basically do a benchmark test on my composition and anatomy and colours and shading. i always have a lot of fun drawing it and sometimes making whole new brushes. important note: this one was actually submitted to an art contest, sadly i lost but it was actually my first time since elementary putting my art out with the intent to be judged.

jewel's house was my first time drawing and designing a house and finding different places to incorporate hearts was literally so much fun.

sleeping jewel is just super cute and jewel's bunny hoodie is my favourite thing ever. i have it on my phone and could stare at it for hours.

jewel's bedroom is ALSO a redraw. i enjoyed trying to fit so many things in it, i enjoyed sketching, i enjoyed lining, i enjoyed colouring. though this is actually my least fav of the 5 bcuz i fully believe the idea that your art is only as good as its weakest point. that's not to say its bad or that everyone will approach it as critically as possible. not even to say that everything needs to be perfect. but when i was rendering it, i didn't want to shade. so i took a funky brush and just rushed thru shading. in fact you can see that when watching the speedpaint, i just kinda scribbled the shading. HOWEVER that doesnt take away from the fact i think the rest of it is really well done. i think i did well on the bed in particular and the fact that i stylized a real bed that we own and my actual childhood bed that i would die to get back (we owned two, mine was lost when mum and dad had to abandon my childhood home bcuz of shitty roommates and a shitty landlord) i enjoyed drawing my actual stuffed animals and my actual lolita dress. it like actually has sentimental value bcuz of all of that i just wish i did it better.

11. favourite comment you've ever received on your work?

uhhhh so like i dont usually recieve comments on my work aside from my family's "wow i could never do that" soooo well go with the comment you left on my bunny hoodie design bcuz as far as i can remember iirc it was the first time id gotten a nice comment about my fashion designs and i was really happy someone liked it bcuz im like super nervous about my silly fashion doodles :)

18. do you have any larger projects you'd like to pursue? like comics, shortfilm, a series, etc?

yes! id like House Of Misfits to be a cartoon, tho the show would probably be lighter than the short stories bcuz i don't imagine i could explore Amber's backstory on screen. im making a proof-of-concept website which is technically online and more than 70% unfinished.

i also have a coming-of-age novel i need to do research for called Saftey Blanket about a hijabi girl named Aminah in her senior year of highschool (if i made it a series wed get to see her twin siblings realize they're trans which would be fun but rn they are but lil babbies), id like to make a children's cartoon and a visual novel but i don't currently have any ideas for either.

btw despite the fact that i am an animator, i don't want to animate a show. i want to run a show. i don't actually enjoy animations longer than maybe 10 seconds.

i have a side project based around the album A Constant State Of Ohio by Lincoln that would be a very personal project around self image while having multiple personality disorders (and other problems), but i cannot for the life of me make an animatic. there's lots of ideas like this jostling in my brain, like a stop-motion animation of Through The Roof n Underground by Gogol Bordello, where i just simply cannot which i am fine with.

then theres the fact i do actually want to sew my fashion designs, at least that bunny hoodie if nothing else, and i cannot get my hands on any fabric despite owning a sewing machine

One of the fascinating things about [ redacted ] when roleplaying xem is the fact that my mutual can have the opportunity to have their muse either give xem a name or help xem pick one up for xem to go by, while we brainstorm the name idea and the reason behind it. From this, it shows how there are many ways that an individual can be named by someone ( as well as the individual naming themself, with or without help ). Not only would [ redacted ] be named in a specific way as said in the list below, but also, xe had been given a name in non-English, as an association with a deity or mythological hero, a name that is not in a traditional human sense, etcetera; showing the all-encompassing element of xyr character and a special aspect of life where the concept of names exist. The following list show the common ways that ? was named by my mutuals with their muses, though, as mentioned before, there can be more ways:

It’s a name from someone’s passion and / or xyr own   (   e.g. Pterodactyl / Dactyl from ?’s interest in dinosaurs that Steve / neverafters + shadysitter had given to xem   )

Given to match with the other individual   (   e.g. Pond ( aka Lifepond ) with Wade ( aka Deadpool ) / grudgesheld   )

After ?’s specific trait or action (   e.g. Sunshine for xyr bright and optimistic personality to September / feigncourage   )

After a particular event that ? and the muse was in   (   e.g. formerly had a ? variant named Bubbles after the muse saw xem interacting with bubbles for the first time and this event stood out to them   )

After a meaningful item that was given / retrieved   (   e.g. formerly had a ? variant named Heliotrope after the muse gave them a flower in question as a returning gesture since xe had given them a flower first   )

After the person the name giving individual loves   (   e.g. ? have a few in different verses ( Jonathan, Luke, Oliver ) from Pepper / msppotts after the people she loved and lost    )

Simply given a title   (   e.g. formerly had a ? variant named the Nameless One from a muse who was commonly known by their title   )

A name that’s just thought up on the spot   (   e.g. Ruby from Igor / huntir since it’s the name that came to mind while he just doesn’t care to give xem a meaningful name   )

Hi I was wondering if you know the origins of the taekook symbol the tkkrs have in their bio/domain names? I saw it's from when taekook made a hashtag symbol? But I can't see how that looks like the symbol they use so I was wondering if there's something else for them to use it? To me it reminds me of the K from stray kids lol I also saw it in a game my friend was playing called slay the spire, it's the symbol for the shop.

Their cult symbol? It's disrespect plain and simple. But yeah, we can talk about it. They say it stems from taekook themselves that they made it and continue to reinforce it. But they don't, and they never made a symbol or a sign in representative of their relationship together. The symbol is what they say stands for VKook. Because it looks like the combined letters of V and K into one.

But what they really did was take a bunch of unrelated things and insist that it was then related to taekook and confirmation of this symbol and as symbol of their love. It's actually Tae's Vante art signature tilted on its side. Which you can see how he signed his work with Vante and the line from the T traveled through the entire word, created the line for the A and the E as well. That's his signature, and on some pieces he just shortened it to a V with a line through it. They took this as Vkook symbol confirmation. When its not and its highly disrespectful to take something of Taes like that and make it solely about a ship

They also used Jungkook writing "Koo" on his muscle bunny art as a hidden taekook message to both them and as a secret ILY to Tae. But he didn't hide the Vkook symbol in his art, he signed it as Koo and just wrote a somewhat messy letter K

And they always use taekook "creating the symbol" together with their fingers as proof of this being something taekook created, knows about, and encourages. Saying that they wanted to create their Vkook symbol together during the SG 2020 photoshoot. When in reality, they were creating a hashtag sign with their fingers. Not this Vkook symbol that tkkrs created themselves.

Which is something the whole group has been doing since 2015, when they went on a hashtag questions interview IN 2015

Which you can watch here

And they will never let it go. The "origins" for this symbol will never make sense, it's actually high key disrespectful to Taehyung himself too. But nooo they will keep using it. Which is also why I will automatically block anyone who I see with a 𐤀 symbol anywhere in their usernames or bio. Past being able to be reasonable with at that point. They've gone too far....

At least most of them are keeping it online though 😭😭 it's literally being used as a cult symbol at this point. Honestly scary shit. The photos this person used in their tattoo comparison? The hashtag one and Taes Vante signature flipped on its side. Unfortunate.

doing a new thing called Playlist Show And Tell where i tell u the stories behind my playlists. dont rb pls i kind of started ripping out pieces of my soul and putting them in this post <3

[paragraph break so tumblr doesnt eat the readmore]

made this one sobbing in my best friend's basement bc i thought she hated me because i was a fundamentally bad person. this was one and a half months into the two and a half months i stayed with her & i ended up withdrawing a lot after that day bc i was convinced they all hated me.

i hate the playlist cover but this is the second part to a third part trilogy based on the phrase "suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem." the first is all positive songs esp those with a "dont kill yourself" theme, the second and third are different flavours of depressing music. this one is the third.

after i made this playlist in 2020 i didnt even look at it and would literally close my eyes to add new songs. when i got to my college dorm i watched a tommy stream and then i listened to this playlist. this was one of the first times i was like. hey. maybe i'll live til college.

playlist title is from something tubbo said. songs only get the honour of going in this playlist if i've sobbed listening to them

went to see my friend and we spent 3 hours in her car in my driveway parked listening to music & i started a collection of songs that remind me of her

THIS ONE. man. i'm. ok. my whole thing for like, my whole internet experience. has been. "abusing people is bad." & i was big on Discoursing about it in like. 2017-2019. and people would tell me "connor (deh) isnt abusive, he's mentally ill he cant be." and i would go. "hey. what if someone internalized that and doesnt realize theyre being abused bc they think it doesnt 'count' bc their abuser is mentally ill." and erm. well you have one guess what happened to me.

i came out when i was seventeen bc i wanted the right name on my 18th bday cake. it didnt. go that way and i ended up in a crisis unit. and i promised myself on my 19th bday id write my name on my cake. & 5 days before my 19th bday i went thru something traumatic and forgot to decorate the cake i bought myself. so several months later i went to the store & got a cake & icing and wrote "happy bday nik" on it.

songs for a guy who is so fucking lonely. songs for a guy who hasn't spoken to anyone in 5 days straight. songs for someone who hasn't done his math work in five weeks. songs for someone who spends 14 hours a week online. songs for someone who needs to drop out due to his ptsd being unmanagable.

songs to blast when you're finally a week away from leaving ur college.

i made this playlist when i was .. 14? and convinced the day i turned 18 i'd pack my bags and leave my family forever. that. didn't happen. however i did cry my eyes out listening to this while packing to go to college. & it was even worse listening to it packing to go home from college.

FAWK. THERE'S AN AUDIO LIMIT. I ONLY HAVE ONE LEFT TGAT I WANTED TO SHARE. dude. hang on.

RNM 2x07 - Como La Flor

Apologies for being so late this week!! Lots of translating to do, and research. Mucho gracias to @queenrikki for reviewing this one for me!

EPISODE SUMMARY:

OLD WOUNDS — Liz (Jeanine Mason) is forced to revisit a painful part of her past when her mother Helena (guest star Bertila Damas) shows up at the diner unexpectedly. Michael (Michael Vlamis) urges Maria (Heather Hemmens) to seek help after she experiences a strange vision, and Kyle’s (Michael Trevino) attempt to get Steph (guest star Justina Adorno) to open up doesn’t go as planned. Finally, Helena’s arrival in Roswell sends Rosa spiraling. Nathan Dean and Lily Cowles also star. Barbara Brown directed the episode written by Danny Tolli & Carolina Rivera (#207). Original airdate 4/27/2020. 

DETAILS:

Max and Isobel both describing to Rosa how it feels to use (and control) your powers.

Isobel:

"Ground your intention.  Feel the current running through your body, your hands guiding it with purpose."

Max:

"Okay, draw energy from your spine…"

Arturo on Rosa:

"I heard a little mouse crying in her room this morning."

Escamoles - like Liz says in the episode, they're ant larvae. One article I found called them "the Caviar of the Mexican desert". 

Helena calls Liz "mi corazón", which means "my heart".

"Arturito, te ves bien."

Arturo, you look good.

Adding "ito" to someone's name in Spanish can both be positive or negative.  It can refer to smallness or also tenderness (like an affectionate pet name).

@tasyfa pointed out that there was a little timeline error in this scene.  Arturo says that he hasn't seen Helena in 7 years, since Jim Valenti's funeral, but last season it was established in 1x12 that Valenti died in 2014.  Also, remember the show is a year behind reality right now, so it's still 2019. So off by 2 years.

The reason for Helena's visit - transferring her ownership of the Crashdown for Liz so that Liz can sponsor Arturo's residency for citizenship. I did a lot of research trying to understand and clarify why this is.  Thanks to those who weighed in when I was struggling to find a clear answer. Eventually I reached out to Define American, the non-profit org that provides support to the show on racial and immigration related issues.  Here's the response:

The short version is that Liz has to meet minimum income requirements in order to sponsor Arturo, because she has to be able to certify that she can financially support him.  Since she's currently unemployed except for the Crashdown, transferring half of the ownership to her makes her a business partner and helps her to meet the income requirements. 

The Spanish:

"¿Cuánto quieres, Mamá?" 

How much do you want, Mama?

"She has a very thoughtful manicure."

If you don't understand, it's cool. I'm not going to explain here.  Feel free to DM me though! I won't judge, promise!!

Narrative thread about Max's nightmare/memory continues from 2x03 and 2x06.  Don't forget that 2x03 was just Isobel remembering it. Max was a hallucination. So when he brings it up here, it might be something they haven't discussed in a very long time.

The Spanish from Rosa on her red jacket:

"Eres una mujercita."

Basically translates to you're a little woman or young woman.  I assume the "cita" is supposed to be diminutive here.

"Mom is an opportunist.  If she found out she had a kid who came back from the dead she would use you to get to Anderson Cooper. And then she'd use him to promote her latest lounge singer gig."

"Isobel pays double.  Becky tax." 

A Becky, according to common colloquial use, is an annoying white woman, usually entitled and privileged.

Lead bartender quit..meaning there's a job opening at the Pony…hmm. Wonder if any of our characters need a job... 🤔

Maria's vision:

Michael drops the change

Flash to Kyle dropping his keys & bending down to pick them up.

Kyle staring into a bright light.

Maria shouting his name.

"My heart was broken.  Liz ended things and a part of me died."

Max's story to Valenti… not all THAT far off from the truth.

Note: has anyone told him about Valenti investigating him? We know Liz and Isobel were questioned.  Michael was present when Liz was questioned. Kyle knows the whole theory his mom was pursuing. And he just wanders in there like nothing happened?

"Try leading several short staffed investigations with the mayor breathing down your neck."

Another subtle reference to the mayor, including the election banners hung around town in S2 and his "anti-immigrant agenda" which was referenced in S1.

Max has been with the department since he was 18 - this is the first time we learned that.  In 2x05 we learned he was there at 21. So that timeline has now been further clarified. Which also means he was hired during Jim Valenti's time as Sheriff.

"I need eyes on you at all times now."

Definitely implies a lack of trust, or possibly still wanting to keep an eye on him for the purpose of her investigation (not a fact, just a theory).

Steph tells Kyle that she's always hanging around the hospital because she's doing admin work for her dad.

"I'm starting to feel like you're a ghost who only I can see."

"Ask them if they can see me. Or if you were just talking to a ghost." 

Note that ghosts have been a running theme this season with Rosa returning from the dead. This seems to be in line with that. Or are they subtly tying Steph to Rosa (I'm grasping at straws here, probably).

Liz leaves the safe on 3...but before she changes it is on 81. Helena leaves it on 78 after stealing the ring. Good continuity, RNM!

The whole "my mom hates cops" theme is a little confusing to me.  I mean, it makes sense given what we know about Helena. Except that she had an affair with Jim Valenti, who was… a cop. And also an addict.  Maybe it was different because they rehabbed together (just an assumption, not a fact). Or maybe the Jim experience contributed to her dislike of cops.

Liz...might be grasping at straws when she refers to police work as "something you love" to Max.  He didn't exactly seem enamoured by the job when we first met him in Season 1.

First time we learn Max and Isobel's father's name. And it is… Dave. 🤔

The Spanish Helena uses when she meets Max:

"Pero que guapo estas."

But how handsome you are.

"Cuidado Arturito."

Careful, Arturo…

Helena found Liz and Diego's wedding registry online. 

“Look there are medical reasons for non-drug-induced hallucinations - epilepsy, schizophrenia…”

“My mom has a degenerative brain disease. My grandma did too. I've always known I'd be next.”

Helena wanted to be Selena.

Which fits with Liz's lounge singer comment earlier.

And the "drunkenly singing in the car with your daughters in the backseat" fits with the story Liz and Rosa discussed in 2x02 about the car accident they got into as kids with Helena driving drunk.

Helena shows Liz her ten years sober chip, suggesting that she's been sober since Rosa died, but Rosa finds pills in Helena's car later in the episode.  Oxycodone. The same drug that Rosa used to steal from her mom as a kid (which we learned about in 2x04) and the same drug that she and Kyle discussed when he was checking her health in 2x01.

During Helena's toast to Rosa:

Preciosa = precious

Rosa Linda… still not sure personally if this is a continuity error or a pet name.  I’m inclined to go with a pet name. Throughout the whole episode Helena uses lots of pet names, nicknames, diminutives to address people. Rosa Linda may be just another version of this since Rosa's middle name was pretty well established as Helena in Season 1 between her grave, memorial pamphlet, etc.

Kyle calls attention to Steph's bandage on her arm.  She says she gave blood, but it feels like she's evading.

Also she calls him McDreamy, which is a Grey's Anatomy reference. Kyle called himself McSexy (another Grey's nickname) in 1x08 as well.

Note: I've seen some people talk about the speech about his sick friend as being about Maria, but I think he's really talking about Steph.  Or both, vaguely. He's certainly trying to get Steph to open up to him. Here's what he says:

"I just found out a friend of mine is sick. And I can't do anything to help her. And I hate feeling helpless."

Only after Steph puts her walls back up, does he gesture to Mimi's files.

The Spanish:

"Oh, ándale, gùero."

Ándale is like, go! Or let's go! Gùero we discussed earlier...basically white boy.

Por favor - please 

Rosa's art that we first saw in 2x05 now looks finished:

Isobel's graffiti "In Pod We Trust"

Both Isobel and Rosa's graffiti:

Isobel's assessment of Rosa's art

"That's a black hole. An unstoppable force of destruction. And it's getting closer. I see a girl looking into her own doom. She thinks it's inevitable, that she can't stop it, but she can. See, she created it. That means she can destroy it."

Rosa on Isobel's efforts to help her:

"You and Max, you keep talking about harnessing emotion and grounding myself, right? But I can't do that.  It is in my DNA to be screwed up. Literally. My mom's mentally ill. So, so am I. I was broken long before Noah did what he did. That's why he chose me to prey on.  That's probably why he chose you too."

Maria on her grandmother:

"When I was a child my Grandma Patty was the only adult who understood my make-believe world. Thing is, I was six.  So my favorite things about her were just illness, I guess…"

Maria on her mom:

"She was always kind of out there.  By the time I realized it was more than that, I just became obsessed with money. Wanted to be able to take care of her. I invested everything Grandma Patty left me, and I worked, scrounged.  It was about three days after my mom was finally fired from her job at the Pony, I bought the place."

Maria's blood does not contain the alien protein that Kyle found in the Pod Squad and Rosa after being in the Pod for a decade. (and yes, he actually said Pod Squad, which feels like an OG fandom victory)

"Look, there is one thing I noticed in your grandmother's file. Her insurance company is the same one that paid for my dad's cancer treatments...My dad got cancer because of an alien incident at Caulfield Prison. A fake insurance company established by Project Shepherd covered his bills."

"Okay so my grandmother got sick at the same alien prison where your mother died?"

More Spanish (there's lots of it this week).

Helena, when she gestures to the present:

"Abre tu regalo."

Open your gift.

Quinces is just slang for Quinceanera.

Just in case you're not familiar with quinceaneras (Liz's was also referenced in 1x02).

"Mija, me enseñas tus prom photos?"

Daughter, show me your prom photos.

Regarding the power outage.  Liz thought it was Max. Max thought it was Rosa. But the wire is frayed, like it was cut or chewed through. So it wasn't alien power related.  When Arturo finds the wire though, he says, "Must have been a little mouse." Which is how he referred to Rosa earlier in the episode. So the question is, does he actually think it was a mouse? Or does he think Rosa cut the wire? And if Rosa did cut the wire, then why? To distract them while she goes after her mom's car?

In the big Liz/Helena argument, Helena calls Max “a güerito cop”.  Güero means white person, similar to the more commonly used gringo.  But by adding the “ito” onto the end (like discussed before), Helena is basically diminuitizing Max.  She’s using the “smallness” above to basically imply that he’s some white nobody.

“I may not be the PTA mom who made cookies for bake sales or hosted sleepovers, but I sacrificed everything to come to this country to give you a better life.”

This is...not actually true.  Liz and Rosa are both natural born U.S. citizens, born in Roswell.  So she didn’t “come to this country” for that reason. She was already here when Liz and Rosa came into the picture.  And it’s not like she came pregnant with Rosa or anything, since Rosa is Jim Valenti’s daughter.

The ring that Helena took was ARTURO'S mother's ring.  It wasn't even Helena's family's heirloom.   

Liz and Arturo sharing flan for dessert.  At the start of the episode before Helena arrived they discussed making flan for Rosa.

Arturo admits that he always knew the truth about Rosa's heritage. (*fistpump* that's one of my headcanons coming true). 

"Rosa es mi hija, siempre y para toda la vida."

Rosa is my daughter, always and for life.

"Maybe you're right. I am playing the hero. Just like you're playing the politician's perfect arm candy.  See, I did a little digging. And your boyfriend, Dirk-- he ran for city council. It's very impressive. But there's no mention of your daughters. I'm guessing Dirk doesn't even know about Liz or Rosa.  Does he know anything about you, Helena? 'Cause it would be such a shame if he found out about a little town called Roswell."

Helena gives Max the ring, but keeps the box… maybe that's what Helena really wanted?

Huevos = eggs.  Basically, slang for balls.

"I know that face.  You uncovered a massive conspiracy."

"I checked the Caulfield drives. No sign of a Patricia DeLuca, but there was a Patricia Harris. Her maiden name. She signed up to participate in an experimental trial. Government was interested in weaponizing alien abilities. They wanted to create super soldiers. Your grandma was one of the first human subjects."

"Kind of wish I was an alien instead."

"What happened to the experiment?"

"It was a total failure. Caulfield shut it down in the '70s after people started dying. I don't understand how your grandmother got involved."

"I do. Henrietta Lacks, Tuskegee, Holmesburg.  The DeLucas aren't the first black people to be secretly experimented on."

Highly encourage you to read these if you're unfamiliar with any of these references.  It's African-American history (and really a black mark on U.S. history) that's rarely taught in schools.

Henrietta Lacks:

Tuskegee:

Holmesburg:

Reality versus Maria's flashes… great gifset by @rosaortecho on this here:

Kyle rips his jacket, staggers out to the parking lot, drops his keys, and is almost hit by a car, but Michael throws him out of the way with his powers (and Kyle still ends up injured because he lands on a glass bottle).

"Now that we know your illness is related to Caulfield we can find a cure for it."

"Maybe it's not an illness. I saw the future today, Guerin. When I first found out Grandma Patty was experimented on, I was furious.  But what if my genetic inheritance isn't just injustice? It's also actual superpowers. Saved a life today. And not just any life-- Kyle Valenti's. Tomorrow he's gonna turn around and save five more lives."

Liz and Rosa's dueling big sister act is super fascinating.  Rosa admits that she wasn't going to burn the car, and then she saw Liz crying, felt helpless, and that's when her powers went all wacky and caused it to explode.

Meanwhile, Liz has spent the whole episode trying to keep Rosa safe from Helena, and is trying to comfort her here by talking about Helena's sobriety.

But--Rosa stole Helena's pills, so she knows Helena is not sober, and she doesn't tell Liz that.  Why? To protect her.

At some point these two should probably stop keeping secrets to protect each other and start actually sharing what they know.

Kyle stitches himself up.

Steph quoted in this scene:

"I was up in the gallery contemplating American downfall thanks to progressive socialism."

"People tend to bail when things get real. I'm not into that."

Cameron's car was impounded a couple hours away.

Max is turning in his badge and gun and is turning down desk duty to search for Cam.

Isobel and Michael's discussion at the Pony:

"Do you think that Noah chose me because I was already broken?"

"I think you are the only one of us who ever keeps it together."

"I'm serious, Michael. The night that drifter attacked me, why am I the only one who started blacking out? I mean, Max literally murdered a man, but I'm the one who breaks?"

"You were traumatized. We were kids. At that age, trauma gets etched on to your soul."

"But what if it's not in my soul? What if it's in my DNA? Look, my whole life, I've played Stepford wife, because I thought that's what I was supposed to do. But...I need to understand myself now. I need to know where I'm from.  And if I don't know who my biological parents are, how am I ever gonna know who I really am?" 

"What are you saying, Iz?"

"I know that we said we shouldn't look into the past, but…"

"It keeps pulling you back. Me too. I spent my whole life thinking I'd build a ship and blast off into the ether. And then the minute I decide to leave that all behind and focus on this good thing in front of me, I'm sucked back in. Maria's family was experimented on at Caulfield. I need to find out more so I can find a cure for her illness."

Rosa takes one of her mom's pills. 😭

My Fate Pt 3

Summary: After (Y/n) takes care of Michael,he wakes up in the morning confused as hell and wants answers same as her.

Warning: reader undressing Michael but keeps her eyes on his face, Michael wrapped in a towel, cursing, mentions of virginity.

Michael faints in my lap after he told me who he is. Thank my fucking ancestors that I'm a witch because this man weighs a ton for a skinny.

I use transmutation to teleport to the bathroom and get him clean. This is going to be very difficult for me because how am I supposed to bathe him while he's out ? Again he's heavy.

I'm going to have to wake him a little bit, but he's so peacefully asleep I don't want to wake him up. Let me look up online on how to bathe someone unconscious.

I look it up and nothing except either bathing with him (which I rather avoid) or bathe him in bed (now that's a good idea) or even better, let him sit on the tub while I bathe him so I could avoid getting my clothes wet and not be naked with a stranger. I set the shower for warm temperature. As I wait for the water to be warm I start to take off his jean jacket, yellow dirty shirt and start to unbuckle his khaki pants throwing them in the hamper behind me. The last article is his briefs. Holy crap oh God. I've never seen a actual penis except on a porn website that I accidentally saw when I had to borrow Madison's laptop. I've actually never even done it with a man.

I have to suck it up, I have to suck it up.

I keep saying it like a mantra. I take a deep breath and remove his underpants. I just kept my eyes on him not his “thing”.

-----

This was the hardest task for me than performing the seven wonders.

I had a little strength to help him to the guest room is as he lands perfectly on the bed. I made sure a towel is wrapped around his waist and I finally tuck him in the covers removing the bangs from his face. He looked so much like an angel. The fire alarm goes off in the kitchen as I go downstairs I see smoke coming from the oven. I quickly open up the windows then quickly opened up the oven to be greeted with black smoke in my face. I ran the near drawer to find a rag as I fanned out it out the best I can.

As for the pizza, well there is no point in eating it unless I enjoy burnt pizza then I'm probably crazy.

Instead of a warm meal for dinner I thought a nice (f/f) ice cream was a good way to cool things down after one crazy night. Especially when you just moved in to your new home.  Selene, now soundly asleep in bed while watching a little bit of TV as myself start to go into a deep slumber and deal with the situation tomorrow.

Next this is Michael's POV

Michael's P.O.V

After grandma threw me out and not caring or worrying about where to go. She basically doesn't care if I sleep on a fucking bench. None other less I still love her, maybe if I go to the park for a little bit and then maybe I can return home so we can forgive each other. That happy thought was soon cut off as I was struck by someone's car. I laid  on the ground hurt. I can barely move. The car stops probably going to check on me. The person behind the wheel backs up their vehicle and runs me over again

Again.

Again.

And again.

I wake up gasping for air. I'm back in my old room.

"It was only a dream. Ha it was just a bad dream" I chuckled as I laid back down rubbing my eyes. Or is it my room.  Looked around closely to see that I'm laying in a king size bed, instead of my dresser being white they were mahogany and a flat screen TV ? Where is my video game system and my desk along with my shelf with my other stuff. Well I guess there is a shelf that's stacked with books and bored games.  I decide to climb out of bed and look down at myself with only a towel wrapped around me and surprisingly clean. I remember a girl, the one who hit me in the face.

Could she be the one who cleaned me. Probably that's why I'm naked. I hope she cleaned my clothes, maybe there are clothes in the dresser.

I walked over to the dresser as I open to find it empty. Figures. Okay, as long as I'm wearing the towel around my waist I'll still be covered.

As I come to open the door there she appeared in pink pajamas with mices printed on them and about to reach the knob. It was the girl who cleaned me. Wow, I've never seen anyone that looks so beautiful. Her (h/l) (h/c) so healthy I bet it never has split ends, her skin looks so soft, her (e/c) eyes can hypnotize anyone and...she is holding my clothes.

“Good morning Michael”

“Good morning umm” She hands me my clean clothes.

“(Y/n) (/l/n) but please call me by my first name” she says nervously. “Oh when you are dressed you may come down for breakfast with me and Selene”.

“Selene?” I gave her a questioning look.

“Oh my cat, she's friendly of course. But enough with me talking you must be dressed you won't be naked. okay I'll be gone.” The girl name (y/n) leaves down stairs heading to the kitchen I believe.

(Y/n) P.O.V

I just got done with pancakes and bacon placing them each on the plate. 2 pancakes and 5 strips of bacon. I don't know if he prefers orange juice, milk or coffee. I'll just ask him when he comes down. He may actually fit into my ex-boyfriend's clothes and shoes. I heard the padded footsteps coming from the stairs to see Michael dressed in his old clean clothes.

“Hey, you're just in time for breakfast. Would you like coffee, orange juice or milk “ I've asked him.

“ Umm I've never tried coffee before, how is it ? “ He asked.

“Well to me it's good, would you like to try mine” he nodded his head. I pass him my cup as he takes small sips of mine until he almost drinks the whole thing. I start to giggle and say “ You can keep it, I'll pour myself another cup”.

I take a cup from the cabinet, adding stuff to my coffee and take a seat across from Michael. He looks at me as if he's waiting for me to give him the go ahead to eat.

“ Please, eat. You've been underground for since God knows when.” He doesn't wait for me to tell him twice as he eats like he's never ate before, like literally. I began to eat as well. This is so fucking weird. I've never thought I would be having someone from the grave to eat breakfast with me.

“Hey, Michael. May I ask you some questions?” I asked. He pauses before putting another pancake in his mouth, dropping the fork.

“I as well would like to ask some questions to Ms. (Y/n)” .

“ just (y/n) please” I say to him and he nodded.

For a little bit of awkward silence until I broke it.

“So Michael, if you don't mind me asking what happened to you like how did you die.”

Michael was hesitant at first but he answered.

“ Well first of all, this used to be my home until you moved in. Actually is this year 2015 still” he asked.

“ Wait no, this is 2020. You've been dead for 6 years.” His blue eyes widened, shocked that he been dead for 6 years. Damn Id be in the same position as Michael. Michael explains what happened to him.

“And second off, My grandma and I had a fight and she told me she never wanted me nor see me again then-”

“Oh my god she killed you ?”

“No” he retorted. “But she did left me on road for dead after she told me to go to hell”. Wait what? He tells me his grandmother didn't kill him but left her grandson on the road for dead after telling him to go to hell.

“Did you get a good look at who killed you” he shook his head. “All I know is that a black car hit me. I don't know what kind of car it was, I'm sorry.” He looked like he wanted to cry.

“I probably deserved it, after I killed the animals and the priest I should have stayed dead. I'm a monster” he cried. So the dead animals were his doing...and a priest, what priest? But I'm not the kind of person to judge, a wise woman once  taught me ‘

‘those who judge will never understand and those who understand will never judge.’

I rubbed my hand on top of his as he looked up at me with his teary blue eyes.

“Listen Michael,what you did was in the past. People can change and deserve a second chance” I finished.

“Why do you want to help me” he wipes his tears away.

“I just told you, everyone deserves a second chance in life. Even if you done plenty dirty deeds. You probably have questions for me too, don't  you.” He nodded his head.

I take a deep breath and “ Michael I was the one who brought you back to life. My cat Selene found dead animals from yours and grandmother's backyard and I guess when I brought them back from the dead I also brought you.” He's getting confused, oh dear.

“ Michael what I'm trying to say is that I'm….well... a witch” I admitted. “ And no not like wizard of Oz, Sabrina the teenage witch or any sort. I'm talking from the old age witch. I came from a private school in New Orleans, Louisiana called Miss Robichaux's Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies where young witches are automatically enrolled once their powers have been uncovered.we've been taught the history of our kind on how to practice witchcraft, to discover and control our abilities” I finished. I was waiting for Michael to laugh at me or be scared of me but he crossed his arms cocking his head.

“Prove it”.

“What ?” I tried to replay what he just said but I thought he just told me to prove it to him that I'm a witch.

“It's the only way that I'm going to believe you” he said. I took a big sigh using one of my powers, pyrokinesis. I concentrate on the coffee cup as it boils then flames erupted from the cup making Michael jump out of his chair. Then I transmuted behind him poking his shoulder turning around so fast that he's seen a ghost.

“That-that”

“Michael please relax I'm not going to hurt you” I reassured him.

“Was awesome!” He exclaimed having a smile on his face.

“Wait really, you ain't scared of me” I asked, I'm very shocked because if I show these abilities to normal people then they'll run away screaming monster. Well not really but still

“Not at all, I think you would have killed me again if you were a bad evil witch but you are a good awesome witch” he finishes. Selene rubs up against me as I picked her up, rubbing her face against mine. Michael tries to pet her but Selene immediately hisses at Michael. He steps away from her.

“Selene will get used to you Michael don't take it offensive” I said. Michael tucks both his hands in his pockets and nods.

This is going to be one hell of a strange adventure.

-Now as you can see this was a long ass fucking chapter 😂. But I'm glad I took my time with this chapter and thank you for the people were patient ❤️.

3:41pm.

My stummy hurt, ehehe, esketit.

Sunday, April 26th of 2020:

Today has gone, interesting:

After Rowan flipped shit last night over a petty tweet I made about his lack of sexting skills, aaaaand all in all acting up, the drama continued into the next morning, when one of the girls who likes him (that unlike me, stayed his friend despite him sexting her, even though he admitted the reasons he gave her for not wanting more were just an excuse,) started White Knighting for his ass.

Imagine a fellow (ridiculously cute and thicc) girl retweeting a post where you're laughing at a dude sending you messages in all caps over dumb shit, just for her to claim I'm being dishonest.... What would I gain from lying, tell me? Believe it or not, I don't need a pat on the back from random strangers miles away online as much as one might assume. (Or if I did want that kind of praise, I'd drop an instagram selfie, not talk about a dude raging and calling me every name in the book that he can over me making a tweet related to him?)

The girl pretty much went "he doesn't even LIKE SEXTING so you must be lying!"

The simple response of "he literally hit me up on his birthday to ask for nudes, and ive seen his dick twice, whats your point?"

He even sent me 60 dollars just to get a sex toy to specifically sex me up with over cam, so, your argument is so false, sweetie...

Women.... disappoint me when they defend a man.

Anyway, I acknowledge that my tweet was definitely shady.... that was the point.

It wasn't even a tweet made to draw attention, but whoever sent him the post via DM, then whatever.

He could have easily said "I don't care", "ignore her, she's nuts", or anything. It would have fit.

Hell. Even my crazy ass, (I am self aware, always have been love,) didn't bother to try and check his Twitter.

Since I knew, "Nigga said he doesn't hate me and forgives me, but that its unrepairable, and I'm frankly still annoyed at him for some of the shit he's said in regards to me as well, and leading me on, too."

So, what would've been so interesting? What on his page would have interested me? Him crying and typing vagueposts in all caps? Posting about the Bratz movie? I didn't see the point, especially if the whole point of ending the friendship was to avoid a fixation on life and move on to something healthier.

Buuuuuut long story short, he wanted to act an ass...... In response to my dick move tweet, that wasn't even made for him or his friends eyes in the first place. (They aren't even my friends? I followed them for the memes and occasional pic hyping.)

He's always so dramatic! I even apologized ro him for (what i think) was the original tweet that made him mad, but like...... he was so extra about it.

He couldn't keep his cool whatsoever and still kept looping back around to it.

So.... stupid.

Anyway, stress isn't fun. Laughing at immature men reacting extremely bad for molehill situations is fun, and smiling at how stupid some people can get to defend a man thats guilty of acting an ass is fun....

But, a cross between mild guilt and also disappointment is apparent.

Genuinely didn't expect anyone to send it to him. Or for him to switch between "MOVE ON i dont care what u write or do", to going all caps in my DMs, since suddenly he cared??????

Ugh. Projection.

So now my IBS is happening. Probably since I slept like shit when i woke up early randomly, didn't drink water nor eat, got stressed out by twitter drama, and how I keep ordering corn salsa in my Chipotle when I know damn well I suck at chewing and digesting those little yellow motherfuckers.

Taking it easy for the rest of the day. I deserve it.

4:05pm, sleepy. Might take a nap for good measure. Peace out yalls.

[qqueenofhades]

Just so you know, if you ever write a one-shot about Chloe and Lucifer as president and first gentleman, I would read the shit out if it. I didn't even know I need it but now I think that would be the most hilarious thing

pure crack based on my tags from this post, Lucifer’s feelings about Trump, and the fact that I think we could all really use this.

“Wow,” says Chloe Decker, President-elect of the UnitedStates of America, as she stares at her new office. A windowless cornercubicle, it is not. She laughs a little unsteadily, as the gravity of itfinally, finally seems to be hitting. “So, uh, that’s it, I guess. Not bad. Andbefore you ask, no. We absolutely may not have sex on the desk.”

Her devoted spouse pouts. “Bloody hell, you already stoppedme from jumping on the bed in the Lincoln Bedroom and now this. It’s like you’redetermined not to let me have any fun at all. Besides, I can’t do anything anymore degrading to it than he did.”

Despite herself, Chloe snorts. “Answer’s still no.”

“Oh, come on, Senator. Just once?”

“No, I said. And you’re going to have to get used to callingme Madam President, remember?” Chloe turns to grin up at her husband. Inexactly six days, America’s First Gentleman is going to be one Lucifer Morningstar,and America is going to have absolutely no idea what hit it. The WestboroBaptist Church has already announced plans to picket the inauguration,delighting Lucifer inordinately, and the right wing nut job online hysteriafactory has been double-overtime blowing gaskets on theories about how theseare the biblical End Times and Satan has taken over America (“oh bless them,look how hard they’re working to prove I’m the Devil, it’s adorable”), but therest of the country is too relieved at getting rid of Chloe’s predecessor tocare. There is still a distinct whiff of orangeabout the whole place, and of course he’s been a massive sore loser and hasmade the transition as purposefully unhelpful as possible. But Chloe is armedand ready to go. She wasn’t intending on running for president so early in hercareer, though she did have it in mind after quitting acting and following herdad, a greatly respected U.S. Senator from California who was shot at are-election event in 2000, into politics. Like him, she’s one of the criticallyendangered species who thinks she can really make a positive difference inpeople’s lives, and after a stint in the state legislature, two terms in theHouse, getting elected to the Senate and her dad’s old seat soon after sheturned thirty, and being tipped as a rising star in the Democratic Party totake down FührerCheeto Voldemort in 2020, here she is. It’s a surreal and emotional moment, tosay the least. But they made it.

“Well,” Lucifer says, as they continue to stare at the OvalOffice and Chloe tries to imagine herself sitting there, reading briefings,making decisions, fielding calls from foreign leaders. The work part, at least,is not going to be a problem for her. “As the presidential spouse, do I atleast get to plan the entertainment? Play piano at state dinners, order thestrippers?”

“Lucifer, we have gone over this. Absolutely no strippers atstate dinners.”

“Right, right. We are running a classy White House again.” He snaps his fingers. “And I suppose themedia will have a fit if I spend a lot of money decorating the place to make itlook less like your dead grandmother’s sitting room. All that china and stripedwallpaper, really. It’s already bad enough that we have to have those SecretService gits in sunglasses following us everywhere. Do they think I can’tprotect you?”

“Considering what happens to you when I’m around, and thatwe have a lot of crazy people with guns very angry at us, I’m perfectly finewith them.” Of all of this, Chloe has worried most about the effecton Trixie, transplanting a thirteen-year-old girl across the country from LosAngeles to Washington D.C., transformed overnight from an ordinary tween worryingabout starting high school and boys and pimples to the single most scrutinizedchild in the world, who will never have an entirely normal life again. Maliaand Sasha are going to be by later for a chat, and Chloe has invited Barack andMichelle as her special guests to the inauguration, after all the campaigningthey did for her – along with her ex-husband, former California AttorneyGeneral Dan Espinoza, and U.S. Representative Ella Lopez, from Detroit. Her newvice president, Dr. Linda Martin, has already been dubbed “America’s Mom,” andthe internet loves her. (They also love Chloe and Lucifer.) Amenadiel hadkittens about an angel interfering in human politics and didn’t do any events,while Maze, to prove a point, did about twenty a day. They, however, had tostrictly forbid her from starting them off by running on stage dressed in blackleather, cracking a whip, and yelling, “VOTE FOR CHLOE AND LINDA, PUNY MORTALS!”

As for Lucifer himself, it turns out that if you give himone of his favorite subjects (Chloe) and clear instructions (talk about howawesome she is), he is an absolute lethal weapon, stone-cold closer, on thecampaign trail. Easily drew the biggest crowds, and was, of course, more thanhappy to take a million selfies with everyone afterward. What’s noticeable ishow that feeling seems to have finally permeated the air around here again, howrelieved and hopeful everyone is. They’re expecting a record crowd, and HillaryClinton sent a personal note of thanks and congratulations. Yes,He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named did a lot of shit in four years. A lot. But Chloe is going to fix it, atleast as much as she can. And for all his requests to jump on Abraham Lincoln’sbed and have sex on a desk built with wood from the U.S.S. Constitution, she wouldn’t have anyone else as her partner onthis.

“Anyway,” she says, as they step back and start to walk.There are a thousand events to finalize, a draft of her inaugural address tolook over, a few interviews to do, a press conference where she is very muchlooking forward to answering questions about how much the Cheeto is hatinghaving a woman kick him out in total humiliating one-term disgrace (the ElectoralCollege split was close to 400-138 and the popular vote was 55%-33%-12%  – yes, Gary Johnson and Jill Stein are stillrunning, and even more bewilderingly, yes, people are still voting for them) as officially America’s least popular president ever. Chloe’s first meetings in the White House are allslotted for women’s groups and minorities and everyone else who needs theirseat at the table back. “I have something else I want you to do.”

“Oh?” Lucifer looks intrigued. “And what is that?”

“Anyone I’m appointing to any post anywhere, I want you tomeet them. They’re all going through the usual vetting process, of course, butyou’re a lot faster than any bureaucracy – and frankly, a lot more efficient. Whateverthey tell you about whatever they want or what they’re planning to do, I canuse it to decide if they’re right for the job. Sussing out the scandaloussecrets of the American government sounds like exactly the sort of thing you’d be good at. After all, you’vealready said plenty that this place is basically exactly like hell.”

“Ooh, Madam President.”Lucifer stops, stares at her, and grins wickedly. “You are playing a little dirty after all, aren’t you?”

“If Satan is takingover America, I intend to put him to work.” Chloe links her arm through his. “Which reminds me, on that note – ”

“Yes, I was just getting to that, thank you. Did you knowthat the presidential spouse usually holds the Bible on which the president istaking the oath of office? It’s terrible, I won’t do it.”

“Really?” Chloe’s eyebrows nearly arch off her head. “Really? After all this, holding theBible on Capitol Hill for literally one minute is where you’re going to drawthe line?”

“But my dear – ”

“Fine, you giant whining baby. I’ll ask Trixie to do it. Ithink that says something more important, anyway.”

Chloe is just trying to remember what she was actually aboutto say before he hijacked her train of thought, when an aide hurries up. “MadamPresident-elect? We need to go over a few things, if you could possibly –”

“Yes, yes, I’m coming.” She does have to get used to beingat everyone’s permanent beck and call, so Chloe stands on her tiptoes to kiss Lucifer onthe cheek, sternly admonishes him not to get into any trouble, and follows theaide. There are a few wrinkles to iron out with the order of events, she isscheduled to host Justin Trudeau in three weeks and Canada has sent a polite welcomedossier (being Canada) that she needs to read before their talks, and PenelopeDecker has called about five times to make sure the dress she’s picked out forthe inauguration ball is the right one. By the time Chloe is let go, it’salmost the end of the afternoon, and Lucifer has gone walkabout. Oh dear.

She is just about to ask the Secret Service if he’s takenhis Corvette out for one final spin (no more tooling around in two-seater openconvertibles for the president’s husband, it’ll be armored limos from thispoint on) when she hears a funny noise from behind one of the doors. She frowns, tiltsher head, and then it comes again – which she then recognizes, breaks into arun down the expensive carpet to the door in question, and yanks it open.

Inside, Lucifer Morningstar has Donald J. Trump around theneck and hoisted into the air with one hand. Trump is wheezing and kicking,while Chloe stops dead, stares, and then bellows, “LUCIFER!”

Lucifer glances at her in innocent surprise, looks betweenhis wife and the man whose job she is taking, shrugs, and finally drops Trumpwith a thump. His hairpiece falls off and slides over one eye, as he isgibbering even more incoherently than usual – seems Lucifer might have givenhim a taste of the full Devil Face. While she of course absolutely does notendorse this extremely illegal treatment of a sitting (alas) U.S. President, Chloe to bite her cheek hard. “Lucifer,” sheorders. “Do not ever do that again.”

Lucifer looks at Trump meaningfully.

Trump whimpers.

Lucifer shrugs again, steps over him, and offers his arm to Chloe.“Come on, Madam President,” he says. “Time to go run this bloody country.”

https://mobile.twitter.com/KpopTruth3/status/1455506675209736200 is there some genuineness to this thread ? ( I think you will delete this because you usually don't answer questions which is against your idea. Even if there are real video proofs you won't answer it. But I hope you atleast answer thus, because there are original clips of each incident attached to the thread. )

If yes, God he's so rude. The way he HIT jimin with that pillow, it's does looks so painful. You can compare how yoongi and jk hit Jimin. Don't say it's just a soft pillow because he himself told he got really hit. So it IS painful and he knows it, we knows it and he hit jimin 3x times unprovoked. He needs some help really.

And calling other members ugly ? OK some members have called each other different names in PAST, when they were teenagers, inexperienced and not groomed. But JK calling jimin's bare face ugly ? In 2015 when he's about to be an adult ? Or in 2020 calling taehyung 'frog' and making fun of his dress, taehyung looked down. JK making fun as if he's God who's extra handsome. Taehyung's green suit and jimin's green Gucci jacket trended and they were known even In those names among locals and JK wore some cheap check jackets lol. Ofcourse he lacks taste in styling and dressing.

And who is he to decide what is important and unimportant in a group vlive. Members speak things they have to say, when he himself does 2 - 3 hours boring solo vlives. Atleast jimin had taehyung who encouraged him to speak and namjoon questioning JK.

And jimin plays basketball when he WANTS. And if he wishes he shows it to us. Why did dude is making comments on it behind jimin's back. As if he himself didn't bought his dog for extra attention and screentime. That dog had more screentime than jimin.

From this thread I think he's having some major jealousy issue with other 2 members of maknae line. He knows they are his major competitors in fandom regarding streaming and solo fanbase. And he knows Taehyung have the biggest fanbase individually and jimin have the most loyal fans in fandom no matter solo or biased. So he's showing his jealous ass through these weird behaviors.

But at the same time he's crooked af, so is using the big 2 ships including these members. Someday use taehyung and avoid jimin like plague and if jimin expose him, will say it's coz he's bored etc. No wonder they are called FS when jungkook behave like this. Next day will stick to jimin, be rude to taehyung and say he is and was awkward him. Need some help immediately.

Not me letting you bait me into answering this. The reason I don't normally answer stuff like this is not because it "goes against my views" but to try and save you the embarrassment of announcing to the world that you are an idiot who let's themselves get manipulated by any kind of long thread online with out of context video clips or screenshots and twisted words. Should have just saved us all some time and told me that you are incapable of thinking for yourself. Your thread is from a known Jungkook anti. YOU are a jungkook anti. And you should be embarrassed. Everything you posted was twisted and taken out of context. This literally just makes you look so dumb.

You, my dear, have a lot of suppositions that you’re considering fact here, and I think, when you have a minute, you should take a good chunk of time to reflect about everything you’re sure is true. The only person who seems jealous and unhappy here.... is you.

As for everyone else, the account linked in the anon message is a huge JK anti. All they do is hate on JK. That's the whole point of their account. Please go report and block them.
