Plotted starter for @televisionrotsyourbrain ! / R.A.M Verse

'Come on down to Lu Lu World for the new and improved—' Click. 'Velvette's Love Potion!' Click. 'Call 555-555-555 if YOU want to be—" Click. 'But, father! I don't love him! He is not himself anym—' Click.

It was unhealthy. This much television couldn't possibly be good for anyone, and yet it still felt like it wasn't enough. It was never enough. Nothing was.

No amount of drugs, sex, smoking, mindless dancing, television, alcohol, partying until he wanted to throw up, music, television, time with Velvette, power, excessive shopping, television, violence, television, pain, or emotional eating... or television... could come anywhere close to filling the void left by Vox's death and rebirth.

Vox hadn't... died. Physically speaking, he was very much alive and well, as far as being a sinner in Hell went. On every other level, though? Vox was gone.

He'd been gone.

For over seven years.

What was left in Vox's place was the shell of the man he had been before; a shell of the real Vox. It was like he had been replaced by a complete stranger-- someone a lot more troubled and a lot more docile, lacking that clever wit and charm that had been so loved. Lacking, with that, were his memories.

Valentino couldn't stand it. He'd been pushed to the brink and overboard by everything he'd witnessed. Things were tense. It was almost worse not thinking about it than it was to think about it. He didn't know what to do with himself. He'd tried every possible avenue imaginable to make himself feel better, including spending the night with other TV-demons and pretending they were Vox, but nothing worked.

No amount of anything... worked.

It was easier to sit on the sofa in the Vees' main room and waste away, lights off, mindlessly flipping through TV stations. Ever since he'd caught sight of Vox's silhouette that one time, he'd been loathe to move. Velvette was half convinced that Val had been hallucinating it, but Valentino was adamant that what he had seen was real. His one goal for the past however-many months was to find him again.

To catch him.

To lure him out.

It was something Velvette had brushed off as yet another facet of Valentino's downward mental spiral, and he'd begun to believe her. Maybe it had been a hallucination. He'd been tripping, probably.

... Or so he'd thought.

When he skipped to the next station, he dropped the remote and his cigarette, lurching forward in his seat with more energy than he'd demonstrated in weeks.

"Vox-- V.!"

Vox's first initial, because the former Media Overlord had a habit of not remembering his name... and with swapping it out for his name from life. Val wasn't certain whether or not he'd be doing that now, but... he didn't care.

He made haste to bend toward the table, and smacked the 'on' button on the Vees' old party switch-- the one that turned all the flashing lights and crazy music on. They'd used it a lot, back before the incident. It was collecting dust now, but it... didn't matter.

The only thing that mattered was getting a word in before Vox disappeared again.

Valentino rushed toward the TV and dropped to his knees, all four hands pressed against the screen. Pink-stained teeth gnawed at his lip; pupilless eyes of the same color bore anxiety lines and deep, dark circles.

But they were wide. Excited. Scared.

Desperate.

"S— Stay!" he spluttered, "Can you hear me? It's... it's me." Would Vox recognize him? Probably not. But... "We... have to talk. I have to talk to you."

halo!! u said ur request is open so hehe i was thinking some bokuto angst? exes to lovers thats honestly all:) you can do what you want with it i dont really mind

xx

Kotarou Bokuto x fem!reader

Warnings: Angst, Fluff, exes to lovers, cursing

A/N: OH MYYYY AN ANGST? I LOVE THIS

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Bokuto didn't care for relationships much. Sure he's always dreamed of sharing the life he has with someone else, but nobody else was really special to him to have the want to share it with.

He knew relationships come and go, although it can hurt from time to time he knew that the one special person will stick with him one day.

So why the hell was he on the brink of tears in the middle of the gym while practicing? The both of you haven't even been dating for long, yet thinking back, even if it had been only a few months, it was the best few months of his life. He adored you so much, missed every single inch of you, nobody had his heart pumping like you did.

But all that just reminded him that you aren't his anymore, and it frustrates him so much because he shouldn't care this much. He doesn't care this much, right?

"Bokuto-san! Nice kill, ace!" One of his teammates yell for him, aware of the slump he was in right now. Usually, a praise like that would get him going again, get him fired up. But he can't seem to care right now. Nothing could get him out of this bad mood, nothing except for you.

Fuck this.

He knows he shouldn't do this, but after grabbing his bag, throwing off his jersey, all he could think about was you. "Where are you going-?" is all he hears before Bokuto slams the door in front of his teammates, exiting the gym, exiting practice which he has never done before.

Shaky fingers that run across his phone screen as he dials your number, the line rings for a few seconds before it goes to voicemail. Still, he didn't give a shit.

"Y/n..." He trails off. "I know it was my idea to break-up, I know that I was the one who chose to focus on volleyball rather than our relationship... But hell if I knew losing you would hurt this much.." His voice cracks, letting a tear drop.

"I know I can be stupid sometimes, but I need to see you. I don't want to live a life with a possibility of you not being in it." Leaving the voice message at that, he's off.

He doesn't give a shit if you don't want to see him, but he has to try.

And that's the moment he knew that if he could love someone more than volleyball, if he could willingly leave practice just like that, someone who had just been a ex-girlfriend had suddenly turned into his future.

Out of everything he has in his life, out of all the people, he's going to make sure that you are the one that stays.

Because a life without you is one he does not want to live.

Agatha All Along 1x05, part 2

"So that's what it means to be a witch? Killing people to serve your own agenda? No. Not for me." Agatha gives a little laugh and ooh, the music gets all threatening as Teen stares her down. I'm all aflutter.

"Are you sure?" What, does she think it's Billy and his agenda is revenge? But wouldn't it have been easier to kill Agatha without powers instead of risking her getting them back at the end of the Road? And wouldn't the Road be too dangerous for himself and the other witches for this scheme? And if he wanted something from the Road, he could just have found himself a coven without Agatha. I mean, yeah that's totally Billy and he has reasons to be angry, but this revenge plan doesn't make sense to me. Or is she referring to Sharon again? Nah, you still can't tell me did that, he's not the murderous kind. Oh, maybe his plan was Agatha's trial?! To have her face her trauma again. Yeah, that makes more sense.

"You're so much like your mother." OMG, she definitly knows. And the way she removes her fingers from under his chin has such shades of "fuck you" in ASL and the British gesture. But how did Agatha mean what she said? That Teen is being judgmental like Wanda?

The soundtrack gives us Wanda notes! flail

Ha, he does have magic! And he magics so much like his mom! Btw, suck it, "Wanda's kids weren't real" people! I do love me some vindication.

WHAT?! Why would he try to kill Agatha?! And why is she so surprised about it? If not that, then what was the "Are you sure?" about? And why put Lilia and Jen in the sludge too? WHAT IS HAPPENING?!

Holy shit, the crown! The way he's looking all serious and wearing that crown! Our little boy is all grown up! I have that feeling in my stomach like on a rollercoaster going down. Wheeee!

THAT CREDITS SONG! With the lyrics and the menacing bass. Oh myyyy.

Soooo, when shit goes wrong more than usual, you just know it's gotta be a hallucination or whatever. Especially when they even appear to kill the main character and it's not even the finale yet. But the problem with declaring that everything you watched didn't actually happen is that it's so unsatisfying, because you undo the good things too. With horror I remember that end-of-the-world episode of the X-Files giving us the suspense and having us watch Scully the scientist actually doing science only to then take it away again. Anyway! So there's a chance they'll get out of it without cheating: Rio can pull the witches out before they suffocate, yay! But this would also be unsatisfying, because Alice would still be dead! And if I know one thing about the writing of WV & AAA it's that it's respectful of its women. So hallucination it is! …Wait, it really super extra should be a hallucination because there's not even anything good to be lost if they made this all unhappen. I mean, the revelation was supercool, but I think story-wise it wouldn't hurt to take it back - it was more about us seeing it than about the situation for the characters. Yeah, everything's gonna be fine.

[tadpolesonalgae]

“You made more than a mistake, Az. Now we’re all hurting because you—”

i am so glad it's finally been said out loud. And that it was Mor who said it because immediately I understood how she was feeling about the entire situation, which made me feel better about her being an asshat at the end of the last chapter. It's strangely therapeutic. As soon as Mor tells Az to shut up though, I couldn't help but start crying a little bit because you really perfected how I thought Mor would've perceived reader going to Eris-

“She could have come to any of us. It’s more than we ever had, and yet she ignored it. Then tries to pretend it away? I’m not immune to that. If she can’t even be bothered to care about my pain why should I give a damn about hers?”

-this line in particular ruined me (not to be too personal n emotional lol), as someone who grew up in a not so great home i can really empathize with Mor here. It's not healthy behavior but I can say that there have been times where I've resented the people in my life who didn't accept help after i had been desperate for it for years. I'm more emotionally aware now and have unpacked those resentments (THANK GOD), but it was such a visceral response to reading that line because it mirrored unhealed me.

The next scene with madja was the perfect balance to mor and azriel's...argument? discussion? idk. You really guide us well through the world which is something I really admire in your writing, it flows very naturally and it always feels like a very natural progression of events. (its just something i've noticed i struggle with in my own wips lol).

compliments aside, it was also really sweet to see reader's peace in this chapter. Madja herself being a very peaceful motherly figure for reader who we know desperately needs that kind of care right now, her sisters are doing great right now but she needs someone who's not family to prove that they do care about her and it will not change over a few mistakes. Which is something that Cassian embodies very well later in the chapter too.

Bas.... sweet guy :( i hope reader gives him the truth. Imo, i think he deserves at least a bit of the truth when she is in a better place to give it (she fr could've said she was at a friend's in autumn. bas doesn't need to know WHO). But Bas held up his own boundaries very well with reader as well and I'm glad that we got a little of his feelings on the situation as well as reader acknowledging she hasn't been a great friend recently. (it's valid tho she's been goin THROUGH IT)

Tabbatha... you keep saying you don't know how to portray cassian but i personally think you do him such a great service ESPECIALLY after some instances of cass's behavior towards nesta's struggles in her own healing journey. I really feel like he actually cares about reader herself compared to rhys who cared about feyre and her only. He makes an effort to get her to relax, which is something acomaf cass would've done and is the version of him i miss the most. And him calling reader out for keeping things to herself? I personally think she needs to be called out and take accountability for her own role in the healing process. He was the perfect person to push her in this scene.

The dinner scene also really resonated with me and my own childhood. As a kid growing up we NEVER ate dinner together, so reader's apprehension to going to dinner is so real, and Mor sitting across from her?

oh myyyy goodness, ik this chapter just came out but im already rereading hehehe im so excited for the next one

-🤠

If I’m honest with you, I wanted Mor to tear into Az a little more than she did? For her to fairly obviously and kind of viciously defend reader but I felt it would be weird for her to go that far, considering Mor is supposed to be feeling very betrayed and hurt by reader? I did have fun with writing Mor telling Az to shut up though 🫣 I even nearly italicised it 🫢😳

‘The next scene with madja was the perfect balance to mor and azriel's...argument? discussion?’

Oh I really liked writing the Madja scene!! I mean, kind of scary obviously, but I enjoy her character and it’s so nice getting to write someone being kind to reader? 😭 Particularly since a fair amount of scenes in cbmthy aren’t particularly lighthearted/high-spirited? I’m hoping to continue dropping scenes with Madja in here and there since it would be weird if reader’s checkups suddenly stopped out of nowhere? Also so she has someone to keep an eye on her who might know a little more about what’s going on with her physically and mentally from experience and studying other people/medicine?

‘(its just something i've noticed i struggle with in my own wips lol).’

This might be totally unsolicited/unhelpful, but usually for me if a scene isn’t working or I’m struggling to write it, I’ll either change the perspective or switch to something else entirely? Like the scene just after reader’s entered the kitchen with Cassian I was struggling with, which is why there’s that snippet from Rhys’ pov to section them up? I don’t know if that’ll work for other people, but it’s something I fall back on quite regularly so it might help you too? 🫂🧡💛

‘but she needs someone who's not family to prove that they do care about her and it will not change over a few mistakes. Which is something that Cassian embodies very well later in the chapter too.’

I’m so glad you feel Cassian read that way!! 😭 I’m kind of of the mind that Nesta’s still protective over her sisters and so that might occasionally stretch across to Cassian at times? Also I just feel like Cassian genuinely cares about people in a more (this might sound strange) innocent way? Like more carefully and tenderly?

I would have loved to write Cassian and reader as being good friends but because Cassian’s friends with Feyre I think reader would still always feel in second place and unfortunately it might hinder her more than help 😭

‘Tabbatha... you keep saying you don't know how to portray cassian but i personally think you do him such a great service’

I’m literally refusing to respond to this because I’m so embarrassed and flustered from the compliment 😶��🌫️

‘As a kid growing up we NEVER ate dinner together, so reader's apprehension to going to dinner is so real, and Mor sitting across from her?’

Yes! And especially after she’s done something that so obviously puts her in a vulnerable position too? Now they all know that she was in a place like that I can’t imagine reader will feel particularly comfortable over dinner 😭

As for Mor, I think I’m actually going to be writing this scene tonight, so I’ll be interested to see what happens? (Because honestly I don’t 100% know how it’s going to go either 😭🫣)

‘oh myyyy goodness, ik this chapter just came out but im already rereading hehehe im so excited for the next one’

Babes oh my gosh I was struggling to start chapter 18 so did a change 🫢🫣

I had so much fun writing the opening scene to the next part and I��ll be so excited to hear some thoughts on it—if you or anyone has any thoughts on it, of course 🧡💛

Hellooooo ask time!

are you impulsive?

would you ever want to get married?

what is your main goal in life?

HIIIIIII thank you so muchhh <33

Are you impulsive?

I think yes. Yeah. Sometimes very much, that's why I'm tweaking so much 💀 I can act on a sudden feeling, desire, or without thinking, but I'm actually trying to get that under control. But sometimes it's still difficult. So yeah 😭

Would you ever want to get married?

Oh this is the ✨️ Ultimate Blue Question ✨️ when I was a kid, I used to tell ppl who asked me that as a joke, that I don't want to get married. Like, idk why that idea was just not for me. And honestly I'm still thinking about it and now when I'm older, I think I figured out why I feel like that.

1) Because I don't want a child. A lot of couples have babies when married (or before marriage) and that's NOT for me for many reasons. Family life, I think, is not for me, I'm not like that. I want to have freedom, I don't think I can take care of a baby anyway, not to mention the whole pregnancy ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT. I'm not mentally or physically stable for that due to issues with me 💀 and I just simply don't want to. It's too much.

2) I'm very scared of getting hurt. Hurt in anyway, mentally or physically cuz a lot of people show their true form once married and... I'm scared that I'm very unlucky and that I'd made a wrong decision that will destroy my life. I witnessed that and... I don't want to go through the same thing. I think it could happen to me, too.

3) I was never in love and idk how to act in a relationship since I never was in one, and the thought of spending my whole life with someone like that... scares me 💀

4) "Honey, I'm home!" And he's on the sofa drowning with beer.

BUT WHAT IF I'M LUCKY?

1) I would (probably) want to get married if the guy treats me right, respects me and listens to me ✨️

2) He would HAVE TO respect that I don't want a kid.

3) He has to love animals, specifically cats and dogs. We can have fur babies tho (pets).

4) He is a rich hot Italian (named Santino D'Antonio) 👀

So, I yapped a lot. In short. I'm not that sure. 50/50 probably leaning more to NO bc I want my freedom.

What is your main goal in life?

OH MYYYY HMM? I want to accomplish things in life that I would be proud of. I want some of my ideas to work out, I wanted to have my own business... I wanted... to write a book or make a comic or even animated series. And all that was for Beast of Burden but... that's only my dream. I want to also help people and animals (if I can). But I really want to accomplish things and be my own boss, I don't want people to yell at me when they feel like it.

Ask game

[goreganization]

I want a boyfriend so I can tend to his wounds like a nurse I'm gonna keep him sick and/or hurt in a way that removes me completely from alllll blame and I'll go "oh I'm sorry that happened how did it get like this!" And bring him soup and stuff. And it'll be alllll myyyy faultttttt

[heartsoftruth]

Wait, but why is everyone Team Kendrick? And anti Drake?

Oh girl Drake is so messy that I don't even know where to start 😭 😭 but mostly everyone was annoyed at Lewis following Drake especially now because Kendrick said Drake is a pedo and he does have some track record of wrong stuff in that aspect. MBB said she talks with Drake ever since she started her career, also Billie Eilish, he hit on a fan before and after knowing she was 17 and much more. Many people say he's heavily involved in human trafficking in Toronto, a bunch of girls said it on tiktok, his dad said #metoo wasn't needed if girls learned how to behave so we know how he was raised, also how he treats his son it was only after another rapper dissed him that he assumed he had a son, is so much stuff. Like I know why Lewis is on his side, they met a few times, he likes his songs and said a bunch of times it's one of his fave artists also Kendrick said on the first diss that Drake isn't really black, my guess is Lewis felt hit with that too, but to follow Drake, even for a sec when we all know his friends publicly supported Drake and he's liking his stuff too, was a punch.

Apparently, there's rumors going around that Rihanna is in studio with Kendrick, if they drop something together Drake will go nuts, I'm so rooting for this to happen. She already ended him in a song she can do it again, nothing can hurt a man's ego better than a woman and Drake also shaded ASAP so maybe she'll defend her man

Yeah but Kendrick also said he had a daughter of 11/12 but that was something Drake planted himself right? I mean.. Pedo is a serious accusation of course. I don't know too much about Drake (other than the songs etc and theres a curse if he bets on your team). I think Lewis did that because isn't Spinz extremely close with Drake? Like they know each other from way back right? Maybe it was Daniel on Lewis's Insta? I have no idea. He corrected it. Oh myyyy. If Rihanna comes for him hahaha. That would be something seeing their history haha.

While we're already talking about broadway what is ur favorite musical song? Or top 10 if you can't decide lol (mine is 'bring him home' from les miserables)

okay so a top 10 is impossible but i managed to narrow it down to 36! (yes that's as low as i could get it, my Favorite Broadway Songs playlist alone is 106 songs okay you don't understand how insane i am about this every single one of these songs is on equal footing in my mind) so here's the list of my favorite songs alphabetically by album, plus my favorite part/lyrics from each to justify the ranking:

1. It's My Life — & Juliet (That part after the bridge where it's like "It's my liiiife— IIIIIT'S MYYYY LIIIIIFE— It's now or neverrr / And I ain't gonna live forEVERRRRR" it's so good)

2. That's the Way It Is — & Juliet (After the bridge when she starts fucking BELTING the lyrics and then she's like "Don't give uUP ON YOUR FAIIIIIIIIIITH (pause for a breath and the music stops so it's just her voice and nothing else) LOOOOOOVE COOOOOMES—" it's incredible okay especially when the bootleg was up and she Did That on stage!!!!! she did that!!!! her vocal range!!!!)

3. Dead Mom — Beetlejuice (Daddy's moving forward / Daddy didn't lose a mom / Mama won't you send a sign? / I'm running out of hope and time / A plague of mice, a lightning strike / Or drop a nuclear bomb)

4. Barbara 2.0 — Beetlejuice ('Cause the new upgraded Maitlands / Are charging out the gates, and / They're gonna unload / Say hello / To Maitlands 2.0)

5. More Than Survive — Be More Chill (Of all the characters at school / I am not the one who the story's about / Why can't someone just help me out? / And teach me how to thrive / Help me do more than survive)

6. Michael in the Bathroom — Be More Chill (OG cast) (Michael in the bathroom at a party / This is a heinous night / I wish I'd stayed at home in bed / Watching cable porn / Or wish I offed myself instead / Wish I was never born)

7. Upgrade — Be More Chill (OG cast) (And I wasn't sure before / But now I wanna go all the way and more / So give me that upgrade / Give me that upgrade / Tried to be genuine and true / But now it's time for something new)

8. Voices in My Head — Be More Chill (OG cast AND Broadway cast) (And there are voices in my head / So many voices in my head / And they can yell and hurt like hell / But I know I'll be fine) (And then in the broadway version?? His little woohoo when Christine says she wants to go out with him?? The way he jumps around in the bootleg after they kiss???? I'm??????)

9. Dyin' Ain't So Bad — Bonnie and Clyde (Seems you get to live your life just once / If that's how it's gotta be / Then I'd rather breathe in life than dusty air)

10. Requiem — Dear Evan Hansen (So don't tell me that I didn't have it right / Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white / After all you put me through / Don't say it wasn't true / That you were not the monster that I knew) (Also oh my god if you listen to Antonio Cipriano's version in Pronoun Showdown where it's Connor singing to Zoe you WILL cry)

11. Good For You — Dear Evan Hansen (All I need is some time to think / But the boat is about to sink / Can't erase what I wrote in ink / Tell me, how can I change this story?) (especially when evan's surrounded on all sides by his mom and jared and alana and they're all yelling at him and he can't escape GET HIM FOLKS GET HIM i love it when characters yell at each other in song i love it i love it)

12. Words Fail — Dear Evan Hansen (No, I'd rather pretend I'm something better than these broken parts / Pretend I'm something other than this mess that I am / 'Cause then I don't have to look at it / And no one gets to look at it)

13. And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going — Dreamgirls (THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING VOCAL PIECE IN THE HISTORY OF MUSIC AND YOU NEED TO SELL YOUR SOUL IN ORDER TO SING IT IT'S INCREDIBLE PHENOMENAL AMAZING FANTASTIC SPECTACULAR GODLY. GENUINELY DON'T KNOW HOW A PERSON CAN SING IT EIGHT SHOWS A WEEK I REALLY DON'T)

14. From Now On — The Greatest Showman (I drank champagne with kings and queens / The politicians praised my name / But those were someone else's dreams / Pitfalls of the man I became) (okay seriously i can't watch this scene without being amazed by the energy and the choreography and just!!! ahhh!!!!)

15. Chant (Reprise) — Hadestown (If it's not too late / If I still have time / Can I change my fate? / If it's not too late, can I... / Can I change this fate of mine?) (these lyrics aren't in the studio album but they are in the bootlegs i've watched and god the determination in eurydice's eyes is so GOOD i love it i love it i love it. even in the album i love this part where it's like "if i raise my voice (IF I RAISE MY VOICE IF I RAISE MY VOICE KEEP YOUR HEAD LOWWWW) if i raise my head (IF I RAISE MY HEAD IF I RAISE MY HEAD KEEP YOUR HEAD LOWWWW)" i LOVE ITTTT)

16. Wait For Me (original AND reprise) — Hadestown (I'm coming, wait for me / I hear the walls repeating / The falling of our feet, and / It sounds like drumming / And we are not alone / I hear the rocks and stones / Echoing our song / I'm coming) (there's something so OOMPH about how the first version is orpheus calling out to eurydice that he's coming for her, he won't stop until he finds her, he'll go to hell and back for her, and then the REPRISE when it's BOTH of them and eurydice is filled with so much hope that they'll make it through this together, nothing can stop them 😢)

17. Wait For It — Hamilton (Hamilton faces an uphill climb / He has something to prove / He has nothing to lose / Hamilton's pace is relentless, he wastes no time / What is it like in his shoes?)

18. Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down) — Hamilton (DOWN, DOWN, DOWN / Freedom for America, freedom for France! / DOWN, DOWN, DOWN / Gotta start a new nation, gotta meet my son! / DOWN, DOWN, DOWN / We won, we won, we won, WE WON!) (literally cried when they stood on the chairs so triumphant and happy and victorious it's so GOOOOOD)

19. One Last Time — Hamilton (WATCH THE FUCKING DISNEY+ RECORDING OKAY CHRISTOPHER JACKSON FUCKING BELTED THIS SONG HE PUT HIS SOUL INTO IT AND IT MAKES ME SOB, YOU HAVE NOT LIVED UNLESS YOU'VE WATCHED THAT SCENE OKAY GO DO THAT RIGHT NOW OR I WILL BLOW THIS PLACE TO SMITHEREENS)

20. First Burn — Hamilton (And when the time comes / Explain to the children / The pain and embarrassment / You put their mother through / When will you learn / That they are your legacy / WE ARE YOUR LEGACY)

21. Dead Girl Walking — Heathers (No sleep tonight for you / Better chug that Mountain Dew / Get your ass in gear / Make this whole town disappear)

23. Your Fault — Into the Woods (I'd have kept those beans / But our house was cursed / She made us get the cow to get the curse reversed / It's his father's fault / That the curse got placed / And the place got cursed in the first place) (yes i just like being able to brag that i can sing this entire song while jumping between the different characters' parts it's great)

24. Bring On the Monsters — The Lightning Thief (the part at the end when they're all singing their own parts over each other and it layers together so WELL and it sounds so GOOD and so HOPEFUL and DETERMINED and AHHHHH)

25. Santa Fe — Newsies (Broadway) (Where does it say you gotta live and die here? / Where does it say a guy can't catch a break? / Why should you only take what you're given? / Why should you spend your whole life living / Trapped where there ain't no future / Even at seventeen)

26. Once And For All — Newsies (Broadway) (the part when they build up and build up and build up and then it's BOOM "THERE'S CHANGE COMING ONCE AND FOR ALLLLLLL" it gives me goosebumps every time)

27. Another Day — Rent (No day but today / The fire's out anyway / No day but today / Take your powder, take your candle / No day but today / Take your brown eyes, your pretty smile, your silhouette / No day but today / Another time, another place, another rhyme, a warm embrace)

28. La Vie Boheme — Rent (all of it. literally all of it. if you don't like this song then i don't trust you as a person)

29. I'll Cover You (Reprise) — Rent (everything?? everything?? the way it makes one of the happiest songs in the musical irreversibly sad and when he belts out "i'll cover youuuuuu" at the end and he's crying and everyone's harmonizing seasons of love in the background and it's just. god this song makes me cry like a baby every time)

30. Goodbye Love — Rent (Yes, you live a lie / Tell you why / You're always preaching not to be numb / When it's how you thrive / You pretend to create and observe / When you really detach from feeling alive / Perhaps it's because I'm the one of us to survive!) (people in musicals yelling at each other will always be my favorite music genre <3)

31. Six — SIX (Heard all about / These rockin' chicks / Loved every song / And each remix / So I went out and found them / And we laid down an album / Now I don't need your love / All I need is SIX)

32. Louder Than Words — Tick, Tick...BOOM! (THE ENTIRE SONG. ALL OF IT. EVERY SECOND OF IT. BUT MORE SPECIFICALLY: "What does it take to wake up a generation? / How can you make someone take off and fly? / If we don't wake up / And shake up the nation / We'll eat the dust of the world wondering why")

33. What Baking Can Do — Waitress (Even as the walls come crumbling down / Even as I can't stop remembering how / Every door we ever made / We never once walked out / Something I never got the chance to ask her about / So with flour on my hands / I'll show them all how goddamn happy I am)

34. Bad Idea — Waitress (WHEN THEY'RE HARMONIZING LIKE "aaahAAAAHAHHHHIIIIII KNOW WHAT'S RIIIIIIIGHT FORRRRR MEEEEEEE" chills literal chills) (also watching the bootleg when they're slamming their hands on the table like "I need a bad idea (SLAM) I need a bad idea" god they're so hot)

35. She Used to Be Mine — Waitress (And then she'll get stuck / And be scared of the life that's inside her / Growing stronger each day / 'Til it finally reminds her to fight just a little / To bring back the fire in her eyes)

36. Defying Gravity — Wicked (So if you care to find me / Look to the western sky / As someone told me lately / Everyone deserves the chance to fly / And if I'm flying solo / At least I'm flying free / To those who ground me / Take a message back from me) (idina menzel my love my beloved my darling i can't get over her VOCALS AHHHHH)

EDIT: OH MY GOD I FORGOT DEATH NOTE BECAUSE IT’S NOT ON SPOTIFY HOW DARE I FORGET DEATH NOTE I’VE ABANDONED MY MUSICAL

37. Hurricane  — Death Note (I am the god of a brave new world / Much better than the last / The time for talking is in the past) (there is something so psychological in a song that is heroic and triumphant even when you know this guy is fucking insane and the real villain of this story but he thinks he’s this savior of humanity i just. god i love this song)

38. The Way It Ends  — Death Note (Is this the way it ends now? / How could I not see this coming? / The message that it sends now / Sounds exactly like a closing door) (I WAS OBSESSED WITH THIS SONG FOR MONTHS OKAY IT’S WHAT GOT ME INTO THE MUSICAL AND THEN INTO THE SHOW I LITERALLY JUST FOUND THE SONG IN SOME YOUTUBE PLAYLIST OF JEREMY JORDAN SONGS AND TEN SECONDS IN I WAS HOOKED IT’S SO GOOD)

Agatha All Along 1x09

- Into the flashbacks right away? They'll hold the answer then to how Agatha is still around. But also: Finally the flashbacks! Can you imagine how silly that would have been with Agatha already dead?

- Wow, that lemon thing is hardcore.

- Oh, Nicky was supposed to be stillborn! And Agatha knew Rio already.

- Ah, so the name Scratch comes from Nicky being made without magic, okay. Yeah, I mean, if you get yourself some random guy for babymaking, you wouldn't name you kid after him. And I guess Harkness was out of the question because of Evanora.

- Nicky got to be at least 6! That really was generous of Rio, special treatment indeed. So was Agatha just bitter that she got to love Nicky so much and in hindsight it would have been easier to let go of a stillborn?

- OMFG, The Ballad of the Witches' Road is their song, they made it up together!

- "I can cast illusions" Is that what happened, did Agatha fool future!Rio like that? But then Rio would have known, would have felt it, no?

- Oh, poor Nicky knows he's doomed.

- Agatha is so sweet with Nicky. ;__;

- So the Road really was Agatha's scam.

- I assume for the first time in Agatha's life there was more purpose behind killing witches and Rio took them as bribes.

- This episode is such a sob fest. How dare they do that to me again.

- "I bury my own heart here with you my child." So after that Agatha really let loose with the murdering?

- "If one be gone, we carry on" This is where that line came from. Ouch!

- Oh that montage through the times. Dramatic, showing her descend, but also what a fashion show! 90s!Agatha, oh myyyy!

- No wonder Agatha suspected Teen to be a Minimoff, the only other witch with that kind of power was Wanda.

- Oh, Agatha's a ghost! Looks good on her, though I'm a bit sad that her original costume is already gone. And I bet she stole the idea for silver hair from "Ralph".

- Soooo, it was more important for Agatha to get Death off her back (she really achieved the ultimate "fuck you") than to keep her magic. Although I guess the point of amassing so much power was to escape death. And now she can exist anxiety-free.

- "If you actually do the math on it, you saved a life." Agatha, I appreciate that you're trying to help, but this is not how math works. "I was gonna kill them all in my basement on day one." Oh yeah, you and what power? They knew not to blast you.

- Jen had to dig herself up and fucks off. That's it? That's all we get?

- And that shot of Jen flying off hurts in another way too: On the left we have the sun going down, on the right we have the moon with its illuminated side pointing right.

- "If you wanna be a witch, get used to this feeling." Heyyyy, stop trying to corrupt my boy!

- Whoa, the door to the Road is still there.

- Man, and I thought Agatha would be happy if she got to see Nicky again. I would understand why bringing him back to life wouldn't have been what she wanted (because then she'd live with the constant anxiety of losing him again), but why not hang out with him in the afterlife?! Does she feel guilty about that last day, that she didn't kill those witches thus cost Nicky his life?

- Gonna be weird for the WitSec guys who discover the memorial in the basement floor.

- Ugh, they did the frustrating thing with all the unanswered questions again! Does Billy have his memories back? Is he both boys? After having her hyped up by Lilia, we don't get to see Jen or her power after the Road. What's the nature of Agatha's power stealing? Considering how important and intriguing Agatha & Rio's relationship is (in a way they're equals, she couldn't be a danger to Death), I had expected more of their backstory. Why did Evanora say Agatha was born evil? My god, we're basically missing the whole maiden part of this ep called Maiden, Mother, Crone! When & how did Agatha get the Darkhold? We still know nothing about Señor Scratchy. Can that little demon at least feed himself? You know, I wouldn't have expected all of those answered (at least the Billy ones they'll have left for the next time he appears), but definitely more than they did.

Hey Lyn, hey, hello, hi (to read in a overly excited high pitched tone of voice)!!!

So: I saw that you posted Midnight and I thought "well, I'll do the responsible thing and read it tomorrow" and then I got caught in a 48 hours work frenesí. And I just barely got free.

But I'm so so excited it's almost midnight, I'm tired as fuck buuut... I wasn't going to leave this unread anymore.

And here I am. I've read probably half of it and I'm going to scream in your ask because I'm probably not going to end tonight (quite a long one this one, I'm not complaining but... wow) and I need to scream:

1. Why is my boy alone? He can't be alone! Where's James? Where's Sirius? WHY IS HE ALONE? Now I'm going to be asking this in my mind every time you release a new chapter. So well done in the cliffhanger/trap you audience front but WHY IS MYYYY BELOVEEED ALONE?!?!

2. ""Not my fault that you're naive enough to trust me." That conversation with Remus and Sirius is amazing. I like the sarcastic "darkish" side of Remus so much.

3. I love that you called James beautiful since the beginning. Not handsome, not attractive, not fit... beautiful. And of course I got the song there: Will you ever know? You're beautiful, every little piece, love 🎶

4. Oh! Marlene fucking Mackinon in cowboy boots. I don't have any idea of how to draw but if I could I'd draw her in her boots. Oh yes.

5. I really really don't like Walburga and her parenting skills buuuut... the way you used that scene to show how difficult is for Regulus to read social context (hey, hi, that's me, having trouble to understand what is asked and how to answer, yep, me) is so clever. And also you used it to start (or strength) the Black Brothers angst. So well done.

And the last one in this (sorry, too long, I know, I couldn't help it) ask:

6. Oh my boy, my beautiful heartbroken boy. "His false smile was the thread that kept him tied together". I felt that phrase and oh boy it hurt (and yep, I got that song too).

So, yey, I got two songs so far (this is an accomplishment since Taylor's albums before 2012 -Red- are not exactly my thing and I don't hear them quite often).

Lyn this is so good, I love it. I'll scream more later 😅

*demonic screeching to show how much this ask means to me*

Thank you so so much for screaming in my ask box, never stop doing that! I love getting scrumpt at!

But please don't overwork yourself for me, the chapter isn't running away, love💙💙 If you see me complain over the amount of success for any of my fanfics, it's never ever directed towards you or anyone else on tumblr. I'm just screaming at the ao3 gods for not making me post at a more "profitable" time

1. Why is our beloved alone? Will the future of our poor boy look just as lonely? That and more we will find out! ... eventually, anyway

YOU GOT SOME OF THE SONG REFERENCES YAAAAS!! There are so many, I put my whole swiftussy into this

4. Northern Marlene in cowboy boots is something that can be so personal, actually

5. Thank you!! The constant changing of Walburga between abusive control and neglect is based on my own mother and her inconsistencies! As is our poor boy Regulus' inability to understand social cues. He is an autistic icon

Oh, you're going to LOVE red and everything after that, I just know it! I think I've used every debut song in this at least kind of. I don't think it's even possible to get every reference lmao

In an alternative universe, being the most sensible and having the most secure life/background, Kenny is the first to become a parent. He introduces baby to the gang, with varying reactions from them all on how they respond. I feel like 1 or 2 of them have never encountered a kid so tiny & new 😂

AAh! This is SO CUTE!! I love it! All my babies are growin up and havin babyssss! Here we goooooo

Everyone had their part to prepare a belated welcome party and baby shower for Kenny. Tyson was meticulous about getting the details just right. He was messaging everyone making sure they arrived at the right time. Max arrived at the dojo first with a pile of gifts in his arms. Ray showed up, Max gave him a huge hug welcoming him back from China. Kai showed up fashionably late, but Tyson had secretly changed the arrival time in his text so he arrived early.

Kenny hopped out of the cab with his newborn son attached to his chest. He had his baby bag in his arm, and the other was wrapped firmly around his sleeping baby.

His stomach flipped with butterflies.

He loved his friends, he did, but they could be judgemental. He still hadn’t forgotten their reaction when he told them his girlfriend in America was pregnant.

His only plan there was to go to school, get a good job and settle down. But life took its own twists and turns and now he held the most precious cargo in the world.

He was younger than most dads, none of his friends had even seen a human this small; but he was still excited to show them.

He knocked on the door to the dojo and was greeted with an extremely warm welcome.

Tyson immediately latched on to the baby, cooing over how cute he was. Max was patting his head, talking to it as if he was awake.

Ray and Kai stood back, waiting their turn to talk to their friend.

“He is so cute!” Tyson played with his tiny hands, “his fingernails are so looong!”

“Oh, he has mittens in his bag, I can get them…”

Max gasped, “baby mittens!”

“So he doesn’t scratch his face when he’s sleeping…” Kenny dropped the bag, and tried to bend over to reach into it, but he looked like a struggling pregnant woman.

“Here buddy! Let me help.” Tyson unzipped the bag, “where are they?”

“Top pocket.”

“I’ll find them, go sit down!”

He sat on the couch. And the team gossiped. Kai and Ray sat next to each other.

Ray said in a low voice that only Kai could hear, “I know Max and Tyson are fans of babies but…”

“I’ve never even seen one.” Kai admitted while staring at the thing like it was unbelievable.

“Right? How is it that small? I’m worried?”

Kai looked at Ray with wide eyes, “what if he drops it?”

“I think—”

“Hey guys.” Kenny laughed, “since I became a parent I have supersonic hearing you know? I have a question for you, did you ever see me even once drop my laptop?”

Ray opened his mouth, then closed it. Kai nodded.

Kenny grinned, “do you want to hold him?”

“Uuuuhhhh….” Ray shut down, Kai crossed his arms defensively.

“Not fair! You said I had first dibs!” Tyson showed Kenny the mittens he finally found.

“Want to help put the mittens on? Then you can hold him?”

Tyson smiled excitedly, “alright!”

Tyson was sitting down with the sleeping baby, holding him in his arms as he made small grabbing motions with his green mittens.

“Kenny. I can’t wait till I have kids.”

“You’ll be a great dad.” Kenny kept his eyes on his son, he trusted Tyson but as a new parent he couldn’t stop himself.

“When is it myyyy turn!” Max whined.

“I can pass him off to you.” Tyson got off the couch and slowly handed off the baby to Max who was sitting in a lazyboy chair.

Max looked like he could cry, “Kenny, you made such a pretty baby!”

“He takes after me.” Kenny chuckled.

Quietly the group laughed together.

“I have only one request.” Kenny said seriously.

“Anything, bud.” Tyson laid a hand on his shoulder.

“I want Kai and Ray to hold him.”

“No!” Kai exclaimed. Ray joined in with a frantic headshake.

Tyson stared the duo down, “you won’t hurt him, and if Kenny goes back to America you might miss the opportunity to ever hold his baby this young!”

Ray nodded, “you make a good point… I would hate to miss that…”

Max rose from his seat and made his way to Ray, Ray opened his arms panicking, “what do I do!?”

Kenny directed him, “support his head, then your elbow around—yeah, there you go.”

Then Ray was holding him, “wow, I’m doing it! He’s so light…”

The baby whimpered, “oh no…” Ray’s eyes grew wide, “someone take him I don’t know what to do!”

“You’ll be fine!” Kenny reassured him.

Then he opened his big brown eyes, and stared right at Ray.

Ray stared back.

The baby blinked.

“I’m uncomfy.” Ray stayed completely motionless.

“You ready to hold him, Kai?” Kenny pressured.

Kai shook his head.

“You’re the only one who hasn’t held him yet!”

“Mmmmm, I don’t know...” Kai trailed off.

Kenny was taking the baby away from Ray, who had already fallen in love.

“Thanks Kenny… That was… something.” Ray smirked, it was more enjoyable than expected.

Kenny placed his—now awake baby, closer to Kai.

Kai unconsciously opened his arms, and Kenny directed him.

And he was holding it.

“Uh.” He watched the tiny human blink back at him, and curl his tiny mitten hands.

“Hi.” Kai finally managed to get some words out..

Max was secretly taking pictures nearly every second, and he definitely got a picture of this.

The baby’s mouth wiggled.

Kai braced himself for crying, but then he smiled at him.

Kai stared up at Kenny with a new found sense of wonder.

“Did he just smile at me?”

Kenny laughed, “well—kind of.”

“Kind of?”

“Sorry… It means he pooped.”

Don’t Forget pt two

Aizawa x reader 

Part one here

Part three here

warning- none I think haha

You get moved in and settled pretty quickly, the teachers and students now lived in dorms which you thought was really cool. Everything was different since you last saw it and you were filled with an overwhelming nostalgia and excitement being back.

 You couldn’t help but wonder about the boys you used to be friends with, you fell out of contact after a little while, the time change being extremely hard since your family moved to America, you didn’t google him, you didn’t google anyone, you thought it would hurt too much to know anything. You hoped he was happy, but avoided thinking about him, the thought of him having a family gave you acid reflux so you avoided it. 

The teacher apartments were furnished but you had a few things delivered from your last apartment that would make the place feel more like home, mostly decorations like fairy lights, tapestries, and pillows, but you also brought a frame of a picture of you, Hizashi, Oboro, and Aizawa at a sports festival. A picture you kept on your dresser the last 12 years and since you were back here it felt right to keep it that way. Once you unpack all of your things and hang up all of your clothes you decide to run to the grocery store and walk around the city you grew up in. 

The first place you went was the home you used to live in. You stand across the street as you look at the house, it has a new roof and has been repainted, it’s now dark green instead of the white you used to know. You take a picture of it and text it to your mom, you don’t expect her to reply yet, she’s probably asleep by now with the 14 hour time difference on the east coast. You smile at the nostalgia you feel in your heart before turning back and heading to the store near the school, walking down the paths you used to take before, smiling the whole time. 

You get about a week of groceries, enough to carry home and have it not be too much, but you couldn’t resist when you saw the watermelon… which led you to struggle carrying your bags and a melon the half a mile back to the school. Of course it was hard but you mostly found it amusing, your quiet giggles making the people you passed look at you funny. All except one, who knew exactly who you were the moment he saw you, this wasn’t the first time he saw you struggle carrying a watermelon. 

“Is that.. MYYYY ~ YYY////NNNN BUUGGG~???” the people around you groan and quickly run away from the loudness of Hizashi’s voice, everyone but you, your eyes popped up to find him, his signature yellow hair was longer but he still styled it the same, he had new glasses though, and a mustache?! “YAMS!” you shout back and his laugh fills your ears as he runs towards you, his arms out to hug you.

“Woah woah YAMS!! BE CAREFUL!  MY MELON” you shout as he just laughs loudly, hugging you and lifting you up, your bags falling to the ground and your melon cracking in two as it hits the sidewalk. “Damn it Yamada!” you yell, his voice is singsongy as he responds in between his laughs “OH COME ON Y/N YOUR HANDS ARE FREEE NOWWWW so ~HUG~ME~BACK!~”  your arms snake around him as you laugh, your ears already ringing and the people steering clear around you. 

“Yams how have you been?” you say when he finally frees you, your hand reaching up to cup his face, “you’re so old now” you say with a chuckle as your thumb brushes against his mustache, he pushes your hand away and scoffs “come on Bug, we’re the same age” you laugh “I know! I’m old too!” you both laugh and he helps you pick up your groceries “I’ll bring you another melon later, I was headed to the store now myself.” he smiles and you chuckle “thank you, I would appreciate it. You know how I feel about melons” he nods with a laugh “I would never forget! So what are you doing back?” you stomp your feet in excitement “Nezu told me to keep it a secret until the meeting tomorrow but..” “YOU’RE THE NEW TEACHER?!”  You nod while looking at him and he just about loses his shit in excitement “THIS IS AMAZING! SHOUTA IS GOING TO DIE”  your eyes widen and he nods at you, reading your mind “HE’S A TEACHER TOO! CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS!” you laugh in shock and then his eyes light up in a way you are all too familiar with.

With heavy convincing on Hizashi’s part, you reluctantly promised to wait until tomorrow to surprise Aizawa that you are the new teacher, which made you about a billion times more nervous. You get back to the teachers quarters, walking into the building you were now nervous to accidentally run into him, you look around before making your way to the elevator, you peak your head out the elevator door before exiting and then quietly walk down to your apartment, but before you get there, the name outside the door across the hall from yours catches your eye ‘Shouta Aizawa’ 

“Fuuuckkk!” you say as your eyes look over to your door, scrambling to slide your name off the metal holder. You quickly try to unlock your door after you hear movement behind his,the sound of your bags rustling sounding so loud in your ears before your door opens and you slip inside accidentally slamming the door behind you. You collapse against it, your heart beat loud in your ears and against your ribs as you slide to the floor, your bags hitting the ground as you let go of the handles, taking a moment to breathe and calm your racing heart. If he was anything like you remember, he wouldn’t come to say anything, he would be meeting the new teacher tomorrow and he would probably not want to bother since it was unnecessary, you just hoped he didn’t see the name card.

When you heard his door open you held your breath until you heard his footsteps retreat down the hall. God, waiting until tomorrow was going to take everything. ..

..

..

...And as you realized after noticing you kept listening to see when he got back, you didn’t have it in you to wait. After 11pm  you realized he might not come back for a while, so you decided to do something, still keeping your promise to Hizashi, you snuck out your door, looking down the hallway, before you took the step across the way and put a sticky note on his door that just said “surprise :)”  before heading back into your apartment and heading to bed, where you will hopefully convince yourself to sleep before the big day. 

“Surprise? What the hell does that mean?” his eyes flick to your door, he'd knock if it wasn’t 2am. The only place it could have come from was the new teacher.  You pop into his mind but he shakes his head, no it couldn’t be you. He heard that the new teacher was a man, Hizashi said he met him at the store. He sighs, taking the note off his door and heading inside. Already grumpy about all the sleep he has missed out on.

So my girlfriend has been trying to have me read the Wheel of Time series since when she was just my best friend. I picked back up the second book recently but it's been a while since I read the first and she went on this massive "YOU WON'T REMEMBER EVERYTHING FROM THE FIRST BOOK, LET ME TELL YOU"

This led to her Wheel of Time in 5 Minutes ™ lecture/rant and... I had to share this with the world. Enjoy.

Obviously every spoiler for the first book. You've been warned.

_______

k, eye of the world in 5 mins.

begins in the two rivers, emonds field, is gonna be bel tine and everyones all excited. rand lives further afield with his father and theyre bringing in brandy for the inn. rands all omg someones watching me as theyre getting in, tams all i cant see anything, rands all mustv imagined it. they get there. they hear theres going to be a gleeman. meets up with his bestie perrin and LOVER mat I WILL GO DOWN WITH THIS SHIP who are both like yeah we totes saw the figure too. they go we'll tell the mayor tomorrow.

they see the gleeman thom and theyre all omg a gleeman, omg. then the two strangers, moiraine, who is the best character ever to character in any universe fucking fight me on that and lan, who are asking questions about the area and people and moiraines like oh hi child to nynaeve the wisdom whose like im the fucking wisdom bitch who the fuck are you. she then says to the boys hey here have this coin which is totally a normal coin cuz i might have errands and shit and theyre like holy shit anything you want.

then he sees egwene and hes all like omg the love of my life will you dance with me tomorrow at bel tine and shes all yeah sure in the afternoon cuz i got shit to do in the morning and hes all like wut? and shes all GETTIN MAH HAIR BRAIDED YO and hes all like holy shit that means shes marriagable, holy shit man.

then the peddler paidan fain rocks up and gets everyone in a frenzy over war wherever and false dragons and logain or whoever else.

rand and tam go back to the farm overnight before the festivities begin. shit goes down. trollocs smash in, rands all OMG TROLLOCS ARENT REAL THO LIKE WUT and tams all, fly you fool and rand runs into the woods. but then hes all, i cant fucken leave my father so he creeps back and in the shadows he sees tam creeping around with a sword and rands like DAFUQ why does he have a sword, fighting ensues, tam gets hurt, is dying, rand manages to get him back to emonds field with a figure trailing them.

tams delirious, starts talking about rands dead mother and then starts talking about a battle and how they all poured over the dragonwall and that it was snowing but it was so hot, battle is always hot and she was a warrior even though she was pregnant and she gave birth and died and how he took the baby and rand was all WUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. im gonna ignore that shit.

gets to emonds field. everything is in ruins. trollocs wrecked the shit there too. nynaeve is all like sorry dude, your dads gonna die. hes all fuck that, gets back to the inn where the gleemans like hey that ladys an aes sedai, she could heal him but i totally wouldnt because you never know what they ask for in price and rands all i dont care because HE IS MY FATHER. MY FATHER. HEEEEE. ISSSS. MYYYY. FATHERRRRR. thoms all, holy shit dude calm down hes your father. moiraine, the best character in the universe, heals tam, then shes all like look, you three boys need to come with me and rands all, well shit she makes sense and they go but then egwenes hiding too and shes all bitch im adventuring too and rands all AHHHH and moiraines all huh the wheel weaves what the wheel wills, whatevs, and they go on, with thom whose also like this place is boring asf, im coming on.

they head out, dragkhar fly overhead, moiraine like a mofo destroys them, they get to tarren ferry, cross on the ferry, then coincidentally theres a whirlpool and the ferrys destroyed when theyre on the other side and egwenes like HOLY SHIT YOU DID THAT and moiraines all cuz im fucking awesome and nobody can follow us now so stfu and they head on.

rand interrupts a lesson with moiraine teaching egwene the true source cuz egwenes got it. rands all FUCKING WTF and thoms all dude, leave it, you cant do a thing about it. Shes gone now. Why don’t you bang mat instead. I mean the mat comment never happened but I will ship them till my dying breath. moiraines all to egwene youll die if i dont teach you, there was another back in emonds who also had it but she managed to survive/channel in her own way.

egwene starts to unbraid her hair. rand has a crying fit. egwenes all fuck off man, i do what i want. mydraal and shit attack them, they get to baerlon safely. where the gatekeepers like the children of the light are around but they cant cause much trouble cuz the city watch hate them and the whitecloaks are little bitches. they get to baerlon. mat and rand walk around. they see a few of the whitecloaks, dane bornhold a young man leading the small group. mats like lol, watch this, enters a shop, climbs up the top and hurls a rock at them, loosening barels. rand has started to feel feverish and when the barrels nearly knock them over, rand stands there and doesnt hide and rands like lol and danes like dafuq are you looking at and rands like im looking at you what are YOU looking at and hes feeling really odd and reckless and danes like are you a darkfriend and steps forward but then the city guards turn up who hates the whitecloaks and they face each other off and mat hauls rand off all are you fucking insane, you faced him off and rands recklessness leaves him and he freaks out and they flee.

throughout this time and through the book all three have dreams but i cant be bothered to get into those, theyre basically all the dark one figuring out who is who, and they wake up after rats backs were broken in the dream to be all oh hey it was just dreams though, to find rats dead all over the place and other stuff. Moiraine told them early on to go to her if they have dreams and the boys talk about it and theyre like we should probably tell her but nah, she saes sedai and like, its just dreams yo, yeah a few rats end up dead but cool, its fine, we’re fine.

oh baerlons also where he meets min who can see things around them, like with him a sword that is not a sword and three women on his funeral pyre weeping and with perrin she sees wolves and mat dice and with lan seven broken towers and a baby in a cradle with a sword and blah blah. And she says she can see he loves egwene and egwene loves him too but theyre not for each other, at least not in the way they want to be.

then he returns and nynaeve is there and she is PISSED and is all like we're going home now and moiraine manages to convince her they are in trouble and nynaeves like ..... i dont trust you, but fine. and lans all how did you find us and shes all i tracked you bitches and hes all like, huh.

rand says to her later about MY FATHER HE IS MY FATHERRRR and nynaeves all awkwardly like er yeah totally, i totally dont remember when your father returned after adventuring with an outlander wife, that totally explains your red hair, er yea sure. but that above all they loved him as much as they wouldv loved any baby.

oh a bunch of times during the book people startle at him and him being so tall with red hair and grey eyes and say he resembles an aiel. oh, theyre also ta'veren, so extra special they draw people into doing stuff with their lives, they effect the pattern. moiraine also says the two rivers used to be manetheran, a fabled kingdom. that night shit happens and they run off. they run, fight, attack, fight, as they battle mat starts yelling out things in an old language he doesnt know, that moiraine says was a manetheran war cry and the old blood still sings.

theyre going to get outrun in battle and against moiraines judgement lan takes them to an old crumbling city shadar logoth which fell to the darkness and even trollocs and mydraal dont like entering it.

oh also tam gave rand the sword which is a heron marked blade and lans all like er only blademasters have these why did your father have one and rands all HES MAHHH FATHERRRRRR and lans all yeah but how and rands all he bought it from a merchant years before and lans all yeah that sounds totally legit.

they go into shadar logoth, the boys sneak off, meet mordeth whose all like lol here take the treasure and mats like cool but rands like holy shit he doesnt have a shadow and then mordeth goes all rahhhh and the three manage to escape and they return and ramble about what happened and moiraines like DID HE GIVE YOU ANYTHING and theyre all like no and mats like er totally didnt and moiraines like we have to move and they leave but then this shadow thing that can kill them separates them and theyre all separated and perrin and egwene fall into a river together, and nynaeve finds moiraine and lan and is all like I will cut you aes sedai for what you’ve done to all of us and moiraine is all lol, and rand and mat with thom end up on a ship, the spray, with bayle domon and theyre worried he’ll throw them overboard cuz of the trollocs that chased them but domon seems to think theyre after him.

moiraines like with the coins i can track them, but two of them have lost their coins (paying for passage on domons ship). perrin and egwene roam around a lot, finally meet up with a man elyas who can communicate with wolves. aes sedai once tried to gentle him because of it but it has nothing to do with the one power so it didnt do anything. theres hints he used to be a warder, but now he hangs out in the wilderness. he says perrin has the same thing, perrin freaks out. elyas is like ill take you to the next city cuz you guys are lost. they then meet up with the tuatha'an, the tinkers, who roam around and dont harm anyone even if theyre to be harmed. perrin cant reconcile that, hes all how can you defeat evil by that, but in turn they pity him as hes such a young, sad, violent man with his axe. his eyes start turning gold like elyas' and he starts to communicate with wolves like hopper and a bunch of them though he tries to deny it.

egwene dances with aram, one of the tinkers and perrins all wow what about rand and they eventually leave, though aram is restless for a tinker.

the leader asks elyas if hes found the song which is their formalities, elyas is all no we havent. the leader then tells him of a story he heard, of an aiel who crossed the waste and died, to tell them that leafblighter means to blind the eye of the world. then she died. they leave and then they then meet afoul of the whitecloaks who are fighting whatever and bornhold - danes father – and byar catches them. through the ordeal perrin kills two of the whitecloaks while hes being all half wolf in the battle and they take them in to be questioned.

nynaeve and moiraine/lan end up finding them, releasing them, the wolves assist, nynaeve gets left behind, lans all about to get her, moiraine reminds him of his oaths, nynaeve turns back up.

meanwhile rand/mat are at whitebridge and mats starting to get sick and suspicious. he had a dagger from shadar logoth. a mydraal finds them, thom hurtles his flute and harp at them, says to go, to leave. hes saving them because he once had a nephew who could channel and the red ajah gentled him, while thom was having an affair with the queen morgase of andor when he was a court bard and by the time he got to owen it was too late and hed not survived, which he always regretted and then because he left morgase the way he did she was pissed at him too. rand and mat run for it, rand sobbing that thom is dead.

they go from village to village to village, mat getting sicker and sicker, a young woman who ends up being a darkfriend tries to kill them, they escape. rand keeps thinking he sees padan fain the peddlar from home, whose actually a darkfriend.

moiraine tells nynaeve she has the power too, nynaeve has a mini breakdown. moiraine said it would have begun with a doing something she desperately needed then a few days later collapsing really ill and the illness disappearing quickly. nynaeve once said egwene had gotten sick as a child and shed healed her not knowing how, then gotten sick. moiraine says thats also how she found them to begin with, in the city, she could sense egwene.

rand and mat go to a poor inn, they try to rob them by locking them in the back. mats getting sick and even more paranoid. rand is terrified when he realises theyre going to sell them to a darkfriend and he prowls and prowls till the room theyre in explodes, the wall crumbling. rand doesnt know how but he thinks he did it himself. mat becomes blinded from it and starts sobbing.

they escape. on the run again. as mat is blind, rand takes care of him and mat in his illness is worried that rand will abandon him which rand would never do because mat is the LOVE OF HIS LIFE, rand ends up really sick, paralleling what moiraine said what happened to nynaeve.

they end up hitching a ride to caemlyn where they expect moiraine to find them, if shes still alive. the buggy driver talks about the queen. how elayne is the daughter heir and her brother is the first prince of the sword. its been tradition forever that the daughter heirs go to tar valon to train and the princes go be taught by warders. he mentioned tigraine who was the queen before morgaise, who disappeared mysteriously nearly twenty years ago, who left behind a son galad. morgaise married the husband and became queen and while she had elayne and gawyn, galad lives with them too, now the husband is dead. oh, also logain the false dragon is being presented to the queen as prisoner before the aes sedai take him to tar valon to gentle him.

they get to caemlyn, mats REALLY sick. rand leaves him at an inn, tries to go see the false dragon being brought in. he meets loial an ogier whose nice, whose like 90 but really young for an ogier to have left his stedding without permission. rand ends up thinking he sees paidan, but doesnt have a good feeling, tries to run off, falls into a castle garden. meets elayne the daughter heir who might actually be the most annoying character to exist, her brother gawyn. theyre like omg you look like an aiel. elayne then talks about gareth bryne the guard captain dude she ships hard with her mother. galad MY MOST PURE CHARACTER WHO I LOVE FUCK ELAYNE (not a spoiler, his name is of the most pure camelot round table knight) rocks up, is all, holy you broke into the palace. elayne whose a bitch is like how DARE YOU YOURE NOT MY BROTHERRRR and galads all we are siblings and my duty is to protect you and shes all you wont do anything with this rand ill invoke protection, then galad goes and tells the guards because theres literally a false dragon being brought in and tension is on the rise in caemlyn and hes taken to see morgase.

the red ajah elaida is freaked out by him, knows hes taveren, has a bit of a prophecy but it doesnt really mean much and morgaise is all look, we cant just arrest everyone, let him go.

he then races back to the inn, moiraine and everyones there, they all hug, then hes all like oh yeah mats sick btw. moiraine goes up and mats not just sick hes now tainted. she does the best she can but is all like he needs to get to tar valon to have the bond between him and the dagger properly severed. then moiraine meets loial who randomly talks about an event concerning the eye of the world. perrins all oh yeah thats like the dead aiel girl the tinkers spoke about. that changes the plans once moiraine realises the dark ones trying to get to the eye and shes like we cant get to tar valon yet we gotta leave now. they use the ways which loail knows how to use cuz ogier and male aes sedai made them together centuries before but now the ways are tainted.

theyre like the worlds between the worlds, can get to places quicker but it has the black wind thatll kill you. blah blah blah they use the ways, nearly die, but get to fal dara/shienar, which is sort of where lan is from. nynaeve confesses her love, lans all no i cannot, i cannot offer anything. it ends up that his parents had the throne but his ... there was scheming. His uncles wife wrecked everything, she escaped with her baby into the blight, lans cousin, nobodys seen or heard of them, moiraine suspects isam might be alive but GASP keeps it from lan. the seven towers crumbled, lan has a death wish, he believes hes the only one left so must die.

lord agelmar wishes lan would rise up the banner of the golden crane because everything about the blight is crumbling, lans like no, i have a new oath now with moiraine. lord ingtar is a fight me soldier who fanboys after lan. theres a battle going on in tarwins gap they desperately need help for, but lan says he cant. lord agelmar orders ingtar to accompany them to the blight and leave them cuz moiraines like we cant have anyone else come with us.

Paidan fain by this point has rocked up to shienar and tried to wheedle his way into the good graces of lord agelmar but hes all wtf you look like a creeper and throws him in a cell. Moiraines like I need to question him at some point.

moiraine then takes them into the blight to find the green man who can take them to the eye of the world. the green man rocks up, hes made of vines and flowers, takes them to the eye. two forsaken rock up. moiraine tries to fight, is knocked out, nynaeve and lan get knocked out, the boys run. the green man is destroyed by the forsaken. rand ends up destroying the forsaken, goes into the eye, channels the male source in there, realises he can channel, has a fight with the dark one - whose still bound under the seals, but rand believes he ended the dark one and its done. comes out, the others are recovering. brings out an old banner from the eye thats the dragons banner, broken seals from the dark ones prison, and the horn of valere. moiraine is all, we need to take these to tar valon. rands all, you do that, but im done with aes sedai, im not going to tar valon. im done. the dark ones dead and im going to do my own thing. he turns to egwene who backs away from him when he said he channeled, then she bursts into tears and hugs him and says shes sorry.

they return to shienar, fal dara, where there was a miracle in tarwins gap where they believed they saw the creator and that the light took on flesh - they saw an apparition of a man they didnt know as rand fighting the battle he fought. ingtars flipping his shit because he missed the battle while accompanying them, and then not even being able to accompany them the entire way. After all of his talking about going after a week rand is still there, finishing his sword practice with Lan in Agelmar's private garden and meets up with Egwene. He tells her that he will go away. Egwene asks him to come to Tar Valon with her and Nynaeve, itll totes be fun, I mean theres the red ajah and shit wholl attack him if they know but hey itll be fun, but Rand refuses. He says he'll never channel again. When she asks him if he'll be going home, he tells her that he'll never go home.

Moiraine is underneath Agelmar's private garden. She uses her blue teardrop thing she wears on her forehead to focus her eavesdropping on Rand and Egwene. Using it to eavesdrop was the first use of the One Power she had learned as a young girl in the royal palaces of Cairhieren.

Smiling, she says, "The Prophecies will be fulfilled. The Dragon is Reborn."

the end.
