The bar was alive with the chatter of its usual patrons. Vandals littered the floor, reminding the young girl of an all too open wound.

Y/N Y/L/N had a history with the Vandals, rather, a Vandal. Benny Cross. The man she dedicated a year and three months of her life to. The man who left her and threw their relationship away as though it were an empty cigarette box, old and useless.

Now, she had been struggling with a depressive episode ever since, and for the first time in months, her good friend Kathy convinced her to make an appearance in the Vandals favorite bar, but only after assuring her that a certain biker would not show up, her friend claiming he was off on some personal mission or whatnot.

So, there she sat, beer in hand, surrounded by some of her closest friends. Her favorite Vandals were surprised albeit excited to see her, being shut out from her life after Benny Cross was done with her.

She was hurt and bitter, that much was obvious, and the rest of the gang knew it. Before her arrival, Kathy had threatened everybody not to bring up Cross, and Y/N was grateful for it.

Any mention of him would be enough to bring her to tears, even being in the bar was toeing the line.

“So, how you been, Y/N?” Johnny, her prior second favorite Vandal which had moved up to first, asked her.

Her eyes wandered down to the beer in her hand, picking up on the underlying question in Johnny’s question. “I’ve been good,” her head nodded, “working a lot, but good.” She was lying. She was still picking up the pieces of herself which Benny broke.

“Well, either way, you know you can count on all of us in case you need anything,” Betty, sweet as ever, assured her.

“I appreciate it, Betty, I really do.” And she did. She knew the Vandals would be there for her always, and she did appreciate it, but, they would always remind her of him. And she didn’t feel as though she could move on with those little reminders of him.

Which is why, without telling any of her friends, this was a goodbye. She had already put in a transfer for her job, somewhere far, without any trace of Vandals or bikers or Benny fucking Cross.

As the conversation diverted from the topic of her wellbeing, she could feel herself getting sadder and sadder. She didn’t want to leave. She wishes she didn’t have to, she wishes Benny had never left, she wishes she could go back five months to when everything was fine.

And, as Benny Cross walked through the bar door, she felt her heart squeeze as it was brought back to the last day she ever saw him. The bar quieted upon his entrance. The tears sprung to her eyes. A soft hand reached for hers. But her eyes were locked on him.

She watched as his expression turned into a confused one upon the bar patrons staring, then into one of realization as his eyes traveled across the Vandals’ faces, only stopping when they reached hers. She watched as his mouth opened and closed, his body glued to the dirty floor.

The patrons eyes traveled back and forth between her and him, her and him, her and him. And they watched as he took the first step further into the bar, whilst she simultaneously shot out of her chair and sped towards the bathroom.

Her tears were flowing, her breath coming in and out, hyperventilating. She made quick work of the lock on the door, turning to grip the sink, knuckles white. She couldn’t hide in the bathroom from him, she knew that. But she couldn’t possibly face him.

What she didn’t know, though, was that in the room next to where she stood, was the boy who was just as heartbroken as she was. He was shocked to see her sitting there after all this time.

He didn’t know why he left. He felt lost and trapped, one day packing his stuff up and leaving without word. All he knew was that he regrets that day more than anything in his life, and he wasn’t known for being a sentimental guy.

He walked towards the table she evacuated, and listened as Kathy and Betty scolded him, even Johnny made some comments towards him.

He took a seat, hands patting down his pockets for his cigarettes, running to them for emotional support. Twenty minutes went by before she finally walked out of the bathroom. He immediately caught notice of her red eyes and smudged makeup. His heart physically hurt at the knowledge that he was the reason she was upset. Whilst Y/N didn’t know it, Kathy had updated Benny on her wellbeing, and he knew she wasn’t doing good. But, he was at a loss for what to do.

He stood as she sped past the table and out the door, racing after her. What he would say, he didn’t know, but he had to say something.

“Y/N,” he yelled after her, “Y/N,” his fingers curled around her arm, forcing her to stop and turn around.

Her bloodshot eyes drilled holes into his; he detected the anger and hurt behind her irises.

He hesitated for a couple seconds before speaking, “I’m sorry.” As the words left his mouth, he wished to put them back in.

“You’re sorry?” The question came out sarcastic. “That’s all you have to say? You pick up and leave without a damn word and all you have to say for yourself is ‘I’m sorry’?” She scoffed at his silence, turning to leave once again.

He was going to let her go, but watched as she stopped and turned back towards him. “I loved you, Cross. I was ready to fuckin’ marry you. But you broke me. And I fuckin’ hate you for it.”

“I had to, Y/N.” His words made her angrier. “I didn’t know what to do, I’ve never been one to settle down, but, I started falling for you and I got scared. I was a coward and I’m sorry.” His words held a sincere tone, and she couldn’t help but wanting to forgive him and hug him and kiss him.

“Yeah, well, because of you, I’m leaving, so, I guess I’m no better than you.”

He felt his heart drop at her words. At least, before, he could catch glances of her here and there, hear how she was doing from her friends. But if she left, he would have nothing.

“What do you mean?”

She took a deep breath, feeling the tears prick at the corners of her eyes again. “I can’t keep doing this. You’re everywhere! There’s reminders of you everywhere I go, I can’t even be around the Vandals because each time, I think of you. And it sucks. So, I’m leaving.” He didn’t know what to say, what to think, what to feel. “I don’t know what else to say to you, Benny. I’m probably never gonna be able to love anyone like I did you again. You broke my heart. And, now, I’m hangin’ up my boots.” And with that, she walked off, leaving her heart along with Benny.

Young König

the headcannons about könig in Fit for a King made me think about young könig a lot

(cw: body image, alcoholism)

he totally would have listened to metallica as a teenager in the 90s

like just sitting at his desk, BLASTING 'ride the lightning' until his grandma came in and yelled at him (even though she doesn't like to yell at her sweetest grandchild at all)

I can see it right in front of my eyes, young long-haired könig sitting on his bed with a bass in his hands (@kathy-ifnt this is your fault btw) that he spent all of his saved Schilling (the Austrian currency before the euro) on

playing along to ‘enter sandman’, wearing a black sabbath shirt and boxershorts, his right arm is full of sharpie drawings that he can't wait to get tattooed as soon as he's old enough. the long hair hanging over his face, the tips of the brown strands grazing the instrument in his lap

the walls are plastered with posters and drawings of his favourite bands and artists, if his Oma would let him he would just paint the walls. the white paint is still shining through here and there, not many free spots left on it anyways.

he has a split lip because he got into a fight again, his bullies just won't leave him alone, but he's finally found the courage to fight back... but it hasn't gotten better yet – if anything it's gotten worse. he started working out a little bit a while ago and it helps. helps with the anger, with the feeling of helplessness. he mostly does push-ups until he collapses onto the floor in front of his bed, but he actually got his grandpa to get his old dumbbells from the attic. they're lying under the bed.

he got so tall those last two years, but his muscles haven't gotten the memo. his backpain is finally a bit better, it seems like he finally stopped growing, now over two meters tall. it's hard to fade into the background when you're the tallest person in the whole village. he hates it. because it reminds everybody of his dad. the guy who stayed for a week and then up and left without even saying goodbye. still managed to get his mom pregnant. "Du schaust erm so ähnlich." (You look just like him) it's the only thing his mom says when he picks her up from the Kirchenwirt (the village inn right next to the church) because she's too drunk to walk back on her own. And when his grandpa gets angry, he always curses him out like that "Groß und bled wie dei Voda, der hod a nix kina." (Big and stupid like your father, he didn't know how to do anything either).

he really hates how tall he's gotten.

the only person who never said anything about his height is grandma. she just keeps feeding him bigger and bigger portions of his favourite food. he loves Gulasch with Nockerl (a Hungarian beef stew with little cooked blobs of dough – it’s really good, trust me) and Kaiserschmarrn (cut up pancakes with sugar, raisins and apple mush on the side), so she often cooks it for him on Sundays. he eats the bigger and bigger portions, finally ready to get not only groß (tall), but stark (strong) as the german saying goes.

wishing for his chest to finally fill the band merch t-shirts, so that the fabric doesn’t loosely hang from his shoulders.

One Piece - shipping drabble

Law x Nami

Just some silly, incorrect quotes about marriage and being in a relationship with pictures! That I personally think fit really well with the LawNa dynamic!

( I also think it is neat and fun to explore that possibility and idea between these two fictional characters)

Rating: SFW

Warnings: some minor bad language, but nothing too bad.

...

I am aware this isn't a popular ship, but any form of hateful or negative comments will not be tollerated. You can like what you like and that's fine~ Because we all want to have fun, and a good time here! A wise person once told me: "If you got nothing nice or actually constructive to say, then probably don't say anything at all."

Let's spread love and kindness. Not hate and war.

(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ ✧ﾟ･:❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍🩶🖤🤎

If you wanna see other stuff check out my

Main Shipping Harbor! Lots of verity there~

Heads up!

So marriage isn't just between a man and a woman. Marriage should be all about being with the one you love regardless of their gender or ethnicity. So long as it's not toxic or against the law (like actual cringe stuff)

Then go for it! Get out there and find love in whatever way makes you and your significant other happy~

Okay now that's outta the way...

To this self-indulgent drabble~

...

Sleeping together:

"Some mornings, I wake up grouchy. Other mornings, I just let him sleep." -Nami

(Quote from:Unknown - Marriage humor of great men and women.)

"Marriage is an alliance entered into by a man who can’t sleep with the window shut, and a woman who can’t sleep with the window open." -Law

(Quote from: George Bernard Shaw)

...

The benifits of being married:

"Why do married people live longer than single people? I think it’s because married people make a special effort to live longer than their partner—just so they can have the last word." -Nami

(Quote from: Janet Periat)

"Look, you want to know what marriage is really like? Fine. You wake up, she's there. You come back from work, she's there. You fall asleep, she's there. You eat dinner, she's there. You know? I mean, I know that sounds like a bad thing, but it's not." -Law

(Quote from: Robert Barbone - Everybody Loves Raymond)

...

Tolerance and Compromise:

"I love you no matter what you do...

...

... but do you have to do so much of it?"

-Law and Nami

(Quoted from: Jean Illsley Clarke)

...

A doctors' take on marriage:

"Marriage is like vitamins: we supplement each other’s minimum daily requirements."

-Law

(Quote from: Kathy Mohnke)

...

It's totally normal:

"My husband and I have never considered divorce… murder sometimes, but never divorce." - Nami

(Quote from: Dr. Joyce Brothers)

"And she might be a pain in the ass. But she's my pain in the ass." -Law

(Quote from: A Very Potter Musical)

...

Extra benefits:

"I married for love, but the obvious side benefit of having someone around to find my glasses can not be ignored."

-Law & Nami

(Quote from: Cameron Esposito)

...

Vows

"The first draft of my vows, which I wrote the day after we got engaged, clocked in at around 70 pages."

-Law

(Quote from: Leslie - Parks and Recreation)

...

This was meant to be.

"I never fell in love with you.

Falling is an accident.

No, I walked aggressively

towards love for you.

It was on purpose and

with purpose." -Law

(Quote from: f.k.q)

...

The greatest thing...

"My most brilliant achievement was my ability to persuade my wife to marry me."

-Law

(Quote from: Sir Winston Churchill)

The End~

Kurt Weller in Blindspot Season 4 #19

(Blindspot Season 4, Episode 19 - Everybody Hates Kathy)

[fnafcatfanatic]

AU thingy [Soon with drawings!]

I am thinking of making a blog solely about my Fnaf AU, where there are two people who are Dimensional travellers and have an angst-comfort Willry kind of relationship dynamic where one of them (Lucille) doesn't like the other (Oscar) because he's an Afton kind of person (which she can see as he changes appearances because it is part of a curse she has on her because of her ex-friend). [I'll explain how the dimensional travellers and travelling works in the to-be blog]

Those two are named Oscar Mittkins (the will in the Willry) and Lucille Hunter (used to be Henry before, but she changed it because the dimensional universe kept fucking her over) Martins (the ry in the Willry) - She is also a Guardian (people protector in the dimensions)

They have a cafe together called "Cathy and Maggi's Cafe", which actually belongs to only one of them (but at some point they became business partners because of some legal loopholes that Oscar used). They are both kinda young and Lucille used the dimensional system to basically give herself an advantage when it came to how much things cost. Also, the animatronics can all normally talk and move [this to some extent] because of "glowing orbs" which is basically something like a part of somebody's soul [everybody except Venus has Lucille's part of a soul. Velvet's is from Adelle]

Animatronics Lucille made:

Main ones at the cafe: Kathy [A white cat] and Maggi [A chestnut brown Springle spaniel]

The secondary ones at the cafe: Velvet [A very lightly red-coloured mouse (not pinkish)], Venus [A blue-ish wolf with a crown and a red dress. Has narcissism problems = inspired by Roxy a lot]

Lexie [A (what would Lucille describe as) pistachio green fox head, who never got finished and is basically like Alexa, but better. Has consciousness and her personality is just like a girl with Asperger's syndrome (because girls exhibit these traits slightly differently and mask a lot, which was the reason that people thought that girls couldn't have high-functioning autism [please correct me if I'm wrong, I don't want to offend anybody])

The hated ones: Polley [A white polar bear with a red tophat and a bowtie], Brownie [brown bear with a green hat and vest]

It's gonna be mostly angst and what is happening at the cafe and while they hang out. There are gonna be probably a lot of Silver Eyes moments [because they're travellers, they can travel anywhere like Gravity Falls, Freddy's, Batim, etc. I'll explain everything later but Freddy' plays a big role in every dimensional traveller's life/journey].

Other relevant people:

Charlie Gütter [sister of Lucille's BFF, dimensional twin of Kiko Lopez]

Kristian "Kiko" Lopez [Dimensional twin of Charlie Gütter]

Autumn Newton [kinda-adopted daughter of Lucille [not legally but it's better than with living with her actual mother and it's travellers, they're weird like that]

Andrew "Will" Newton [Lucille's ex-BFF and source of lot of her trauma, is trans. Bio "mother" of Autumn]

Peter Martins [Lucille's dad, who is an asshole and caused a lot of Lucille's trauma. Will explain later stuff: He went to the Freddy's dimension with the children along with "uncle" Josh and his two daughter and just killed all Lucille's friends, which started a whole new traumatic chain of events, but then they come back as travellers usually do (WILL EXPLAIN LATER ON, JUST ACCEPT THAT IT HAS SOME SOUL EXPLANATION)

I can promise you that it'll actually be fun AU if you let me!!!

[justonemorechapternicercy]

Because my beloved @unbeknownstunknown was complaining about the lack of Tristercy 💙

It all started with the Hephaestus and the Athena cabins working together to invent the demigod proof technology to be able to connect with each other and their mortal acquaintances. Or maybe it started with Percy getting better friends with Piper, both of them being fed up with other people's expectations about their lives, about not being able to explore their own sexuality because others wanted them to be in a relationship with the "obvious choice".

Wait, no. It started with little Percy having a little thing for a certain Hollywood heartthrob he saw in a trashy soap opera when the neighbor lady was babysitting him.

Anyways, it started somehow, with the mixture of little things that built up into this moment.

This moment being Percy, drunk and petty, lounging with Piper around the McLean's pool, bitching about compulsive heteronormativity.

Dangerous combination, especially with Percy's tendency to listen to his impulsive thoughts, and Piper's inherited curiosity towards unusual pairings. (And by curiosity, Percy obviously meant obsession. As much as Piper liked to deny it, she was their mother's child through and through. Maybe not from the outside, but her personality definitely reflected on some aspects of Aphrodite.)

"You wouldn't dare to do it," Piper declared, taking a generous sip of her purple cocktail, leaning back onto the sunbed. The look Percy gave them was one that other people would have found disturbing, but Piper just smiled prettily, dipping his big toe into the cooling pool water. As much as the native American demigod liked to deny, they were disturbingly similar to Drew Tanaka. Only one of them was better at hiding their cruel side, and one of them was proud of it.

"Famous last words," Percy muttered, but then smirked. "So, what's the bet?"

Piper snorted, "There's no bet. You will do it, and I will enjoy the fallout."

"Valid," Percy nodded, unlocking his phone. He was feeling mischievous, petty, and yes, horny.

He hated that everybody thought that just because Piper and him were friends, and heterosexuals thought there was no such thing as a boy-girl friendship, the media had been speculating about their possible marriage ever since he first visited them.

He was not in love with Piper, thank you very much. No.

His sight was on another McLean.

Piper knew about this, and found it hilarious. Especially because of the conspiracy theories that were spreading through the tweets and TikTok videos that he, as a wrongly accused teenage terrorist, why would want to marry into a movie star's family. Most of them thought it was his way to clear up his reputation before trying to become an internationally famous actor himself.

He was actually quite ashamed of the internet. He heard that people were horny on the internet, with dirty, dirty minds, but nobody tweeted about him being Tristan's boytoy. Shame.

He would have to rectify it.

🌊 @ iblamethegods

replying to @ queenofthedamned

He obviously wants to fuck the dad

It was quite funny how quickly his tweet was retweeted. Some called him disgusting. Some agreed. Nature was healing.

Missy💀 @ queenofthedead

replying to @ iblamethegods

You disgusting freak! That's basically a child!

Prudence R. @ prupru

You might be onto something! #tristercy

Kathy Kat😻 @ tristanisadaddy

OMG! That's so hot! #tristercy

Rach @ idareyou

replying to @ iblamethegods @ queenofthedamned

I agree… that idiot is certainly a child 🙄

Rach @ idareyou

replying to @ iblamethegods

The boy definitely wants to fuck the dad

Outside of the slight feeling of humiliation and humor of being called out by Rachel, he didn't think much of what would happen after he posted it - already was on his way to close it, not wanting to bother by the fall out -, when he saw something that made him glad he wasn't currently drinking.

TM @ lovernotfighter

replying to @ iblamethegods

What if the dad wants to fuck him too?

#tristercy

The icon was a picture of a familiar painting. A painting he had been staring at for the last two weeks, during each meal. TM was a follower of Piper (Feathers @stopstereotypes). Percy could admit that sometimes he missed the obvious, but-

"Subtle, dad, subtle," Piper laughed, more than a little tipsy.

-but he wasn't that oblivious.

It wasn't a joke, was it? He did caught Tristan looking at certain parts of him for longer than polite. And he hinted that he was quite lonely nowadays. And that he was bisexual. And that there was a reason why he had a daughter from the literal Goddess of Love.

Well…

🌊

What if the boy wanted to go inside?

He sent the DM, part of him still not expecting an answer, but it arrived almost immediately as if Tristan was waiting for his reaction.

TM

The dad would be waiting

Percy swallowed. Peeking from behind his phone, his eyes met with Piper's mirthful eyes.

"What?" He demanded defensively.

"Nothing," Piper smirked. It was a terrifying look on them. She looked exactly like Drew. "Can I be your maid of honor, stepmom?" She cackled finally.

Percy pouted, secretly happy that she wasn't jealous or resentful because of his crush on their father, but they shouldn't make fun of him. Placing his body weight on his arms, he pushed himself up.

"Well, my darling stepdaughter, I'm going to bed now-"

She look confused.

He smirked. "Have to make sure you get half siblings from your dad's side too!"

Piper's eyes widened, and before he could prepare to avoid being used as a bullseye, a stray flip-flop hit in his chest. "Fuck off, Jackson!" They yelled, wheezing.

Percy couldn't stop himself. "That's Jackson-McLean for you, Ms!" Then ran. He had other things to do that night than annoying the hell out of his future stepdaughter. He would have a lot of time to do that after the wedding.

"Oh? Jackson-McLean, you say?" A deep voice purred as he walked into the mansion. He wasn't startled when the gorgeous man stepped out of the shadows that were leading towards his bedroom, but his heart definitely speed up more than he ever experienced before outside of a dangerous situation.

Well… it was a dangerous situation in some way; he felt like a prey animal as the older man prowled towards him.

He couldn't wait to be eaten alive.

Here are some things we can talk about as in the whole thing. It's 3:30 the day is not done but this **** next door is losing everything he just sits there arguing with our son saying he's gonna win something he's not gonna win anything then he's a piece of crap. We went over a few things we have some major announcements and we found out what's bothering the little creep and people do more of it

--- He found out from Tommy F that everybody is after the Volkswagen Golf and that they're going up there to Canada to fight over it. it is true. That he is going to die to hand it over he will be gone and as a sanctioned hit by the CIA and nobody cares about you trump you're an animal and what a **** **** **** your whole life is this **** **** running around messing with him getting beat up you're a moron.

--- And another thing is that Lily is going to deliver it and she's going to deliver it as Lily she wants to tell our son that Kathy has died and Ronald and in a car accident like his mom got hurt and wants to threaten him with cars and to try and fornicate to steal his DNA and it won't work anyways he says but she's a pig and we do know why it won't work is they're not compatible we are going to discuss the rest of it because Trump doesn't wanna hear it

--- Along with the car going to our son and yeah it goes to him and there's other trumps alive like Terry Cheesman and mom and others arranged to get the car to him and Lily to get him out W leaving though she's a moron and our son says I'll allow you to mutate into a black person but not to be compatible and she's angry and he's and says all sorts of weird stupid **** it says you're a toddler in an idiot and I'm married in your **** moron challenging me to a fight I could clean your clock while I'm asleep. And he says that to her because she was out front challenging him to a fight and it's a hostile place and they're holding him here and we're gonna sue the living **** out of all of you shortly once trump falls

--- Tommy F told him that it's foretold by the max that he will be dead before the election and then he says and you'll be revived and you went away during the Revolutionary War and that's what happened and your question by Dave so people wanna see if it's Dave's. And furthermore you are hated by everyone but Tommy F went to describe what would happen and it's per the Revolutionary War and civil war and it's almost exactly the same as what our son and daughter came up with there's some nuances there and he says there's an end to it and it is with cutman and it's because that's actually cheeseman and the empire is claiming they will have a roboticized human in office because they have the power And they heard our son saying unfortunately We are aware of the matrix and we are aware of some issues the Empire has and we do know how to interrupt signal And foreigners do as well Tommy F went on to say that they're using us as bait to go in and drag them down to larger nozzles. As he was telling Trump Trump was kind of writing notes no he's trying to remember it and he asked Tommy for a written statement or a summary with some backup and tommy f said you dont ask me for that no... The conversation continued and Trump fell down around 50 times with anger hostility childish behavior weeping and he finally said it sounds true but I need to know and he said I told you about it and that's what they plan to do he says how are they gonna do it and so they're having us fight and you won't get off me and you can't learn this stuff all your shit's going away and basically it's being taken pretty quickly And we are hearing that people think the pseudo empire took them and our son and daughter say you forgot what we told you and they'll probably die so this went on for an hour or two today and Tommy F says I'm not finished the whole time finally said ok so you get what they're doing right and Trump says I don't see how this affects anything. So Tommy F raised his hand as if to strike and brought down quickly to his side I said that's what they're saying he says no they're saying it are you deaf everybody's telling you and you're stupid and he says they're taking boms that might have stuff in them. and Tommy F says where are they taking them to and also he said ohh no so

Okay....

Ranty-rant about something TOTALLY different (and just my insights)....

I tormented myself recently by watching a BBC/Masterpiece Theater production from a few years back of Little Women, entirely because Kathy plays Amy (tho, ofc, Amy at 12 will never not be difficult to believe)....with the usual mad misconceptions/attempts at somehow updating that also, ofc, fall flat AF....

It took me into my pursuit, once again, of why it's, actually, a painfully overrated book/even story (as is/was Anne of Green Gables), how no, it's not now and never has been remotely "feminist"---and how, no, I don't fucking need to "understand when it was written"....

What spurs this, as well, are the mennyyyyy defensive blocks I saw of, "well, if you don't like a book about marriage as the sole career goal, I'd hate to see what you have to say about Jane Austen!"....

Except, noooo.....cuz, honestly? Almost every book, back in the day (and even now), regardless of the gender or sexual persuasion of the writer, winds up being about who married who. That's Trollope, that's (to an extent) Thackeray, that's Elizabeth Gaskell, that's, really, every damn romcom written/filmed today.

Actually, only writers where that doesn't apply? Maybeeee Thomas Hardy (cuz most of his shit ends with everybody ded or alone) and maybeeee (sometimes) DH Lawrence (again the ones that aren't that way, are books that have really sad endings, ditto Fitzgerald, etc)....

Sooo.....the "everybody wound up married except Beth cuz ded", isn't my problem....

My problem with Louisa May Alcott (particularly if you DARE compare her to JA, which is just patently absurd) is that she, as writer, did, in fact, suck ass. And JA ruled over 200 years ago and will ALWAYS fuckin' rule.

AND....if you're gonna get into the whole, "marriage as endgame" bullshit argument:

A) everybody here is always fucking shipping, so no

B) MOAR importantly----Alcott wrote a syrupy piece of shit about how being good and delighting in poverty pressed upon you/knowing NOT to challenge the menfolks would leave you in eternal delight (tho, LBR, I don't fucking think so---Meg winds up a poverty stricken widow with 3 young children, all because she "knew her place" and didn't dare have a personality outside of being pretty, but not too pretty/showy)-----Austen wrote books about women who really challenged some shit and moar often than not, men had to change to please THEM.....

Even in cases where wimmins changed (Emma), they changed cuz they'd been total assholes and needed to get over themselves on every fuckin' level.

And WHY did Alcott write it? Her publisher talked her into it/for $$$ (which is fine) and, if you read between the lines (and her own, "I don't know/like many girls, so I guess I'll use my sisters"), there's soooo much, "I'm not like OTHER girls...." action going on in this crap, anyway.

AND....don't get me wrong, Austen has some clunkers her own self...Mansfield Park veers waayyyy close to that same sort of self-righteousness I utterly despise.....buuutt.....it's also probably her least popular/readable book.

Conversely, Alcott? Little Women, shitty as it fucking is/was, remains her best work. And yeah, I've read almost everything she's done.

I think MY issue remains, "why is this a classic, exactly?"

Oh, also? Nooo...."the time/for children" is NOT valid, either----plenty of nicely written children's fiction from the Victorian/Edwardian eras, too....

ETA: so, again, in the end? Alcott wrote shitty Elsie Dinsmore crap and I'd still like somebody to prove me wrong.

So you guys may (or may not) remember Kathy the stray cat in heat from earlier this year. I called her Kathy after the ghost in Wuthering Height by Emily Brontë, because she kept coming to our windows crying to come inside. She tested all of our nerves. Anyhow she won the lottery. Our neighbors, the Hamptons (not their real name we just call them that because they have a place up in the Hamptons were they are at when they are not down here. Real nice people. Anyhow they took in Kathy, renamed her to Geanie, got her fixed and cleaned up and now she lays around like the queen of Sheeba enjoying the finer things in life. She comes over all the time to visit Mei Ling, Geanie wants to be friends with her and Mei will put up with social visits for a bit and then will chase her off. It's one of those types of friendships.

Another of our backyard residents is Speedy. He's a 3 foot long Black Racer Snake. He's lived in or backyard as long we've had the house. He's nice enough, he does his thing, we do ours and for an ill-tempered breed he leaves everyone alone. I have never seen a Mouse in the backyard or garden. So you know everybody works. At first I called him 'Blacky' because, well he's black. My wife Dani got on me and informed me we are not calling him that. So a lesson in sensitivity... so Speedy it is. Just saw him this morning doing his thing.

Now our latest new resident is a Black cat with some white patches of missing fur. I thought he (or she, I couldn't tell) might have the mange, so I looked and it doesn't seem to be. He (or she) is just beat up. Looks like someone has been in some cat fights. I would hate to see the other cat, but honestly I'm thinking some cat is probably saying that about him (or her) I'm thinking he (or she) didn't win whatever fight that they were in.

I was trying to get used to calling him (or her) Noir. But that doesn't seem to roll of the tongue properly. So I was thinking about it, while weeding a garden bed this morning. And he (or she) is black as a Raven's wing. So I guess Raven is a good name for him (or her) and besides he (or her) showed up around Halloween time so a good fit.

I don't know how long this new cat plans on staying, I haven't fed him (or her) of course, so we shall see. Sorry for no pic, Dani's in the Hospital with her phone, so I have no camera here at the house.

He (or she) sure does seem to like our backyard though.

Yeah, I feel you. While not as similar, it kind of reminds me of how Carry On treats Jinjur. She’s one of the main threats Kathy and the gang have to deal with and the comic goes out of its way to act like she’s this massive threat to everyone in Rackenroon and the entire continent of Africa. The characters really want you to believe she’s this master manipulator and strategist that will go out of her way to destroy an entire country if it means killing her enemies as if she’s too dangerous to even leave alive. But whenever the comic gives her any screen time, she just comes off as this petty, high school level bully practically all the time. 

Sure she’s mean and has an evil plan, but she hardly ever gives off any feeling of danger, worry or charismatic behavior. Okay well they try the charismatic part, but it’s not really good. And everybody hates her, especially her own soldiers (and they range from either fearing her to only being loyal to her family). Which is double embarrassing because the writer constantly wants you to believe she’s got some supporters behind her without ever showing us them, pretty much relying on the audience to take their words at face value. It’s literal “tell don’t show” at its worst and let me remind you: This comic loves doing that a lot. It feels like the writer really wants you to just believe in it and go with it without questioning it too much.

Designated Villains seem to be a very frequent webcomic cliche it seems. You might as well add Alejandra, Saign and CBR Cortex in that list. Also, spoilers for everyone who hasn’t read Carry On.

Christmas Cheer?

By Kathy G.

Summary: A drunken Hamish Watson has just ruined Christmas Day for his family, and now his son, Johnny, who is 11 years old and in his first year of grammar school, must try to find some way to cheer up his mother.  Will a home-made gift do the trick?  And can Johnny make her one before Christmas Day is over, one that she’ll like?

Note: I got the idea for John’s family troubles from sgam76, who wrote about it in two of her own stories, “A Pox on All Your Houses” and “A Long Walk Down a Dusty Road.”  Thanks to BesleyBean for beta-reading and Brit-picking my story!

Johnny flopped down on the dry, brittle dead grass, tears rolling down his cheeks despite his efforts to keep them back, and lay face-down on the ground, resting his face on his arms.  The chilly late-December wind seemed to blow right through his thin, threadbare jacket, making him shiver, but for once, he didn’t care that it was cold outside.  It was Christmas Day, but Daddy had completely spoiled it, ruined it for everyone.

First, the week before, he had taken Mummy’s Christmas money—all of it—and used it to buy himself some bottles of booze, so that she’d had no money to buy any presents for her family; she’d had to make everybody’s presents instead, and she had only had a short time to do that.  Then, the night before, on Christmas Eve, Daddy had stayed up all night, drinking.  As if that wasn’t enough, early that morning, when it was time for everyone to open their gifts, Daddy had knocked the Christmas tree over in a drunken rage, and then he had taken the present Mummy had made for Johnny, and the gifts that the child had received from his sister, Granny Leekey, and their across-the-street neighbour, Mrs. Templeton (whom Johnny and Harry had always addressed as Aunt Alice), and had destroyed them before Johnny had even had a chance to open them.

Afterwards, Daddy had destroyed Mummy’s own gifts, the ones that Johnny, Harry, Granny, and Mrs. Templeton had all given her.  An ugly shouting match between Mummy and Daddy had followed, and now Mummy was hiding in the kitchen’s walk-in cupboard, and Daddy had left the prefab still in a rage.

Thanks to Daddy, Johnny and Mummy had nothing now—no Christmas presents, and no Christmas tree!  The only reason Harry had the presents she’d received from Mummy and Johnny was because Mummy had mailed them to her days before, at Granny’s house in Penrith, Cumbria, where Harry had been living ever since the year before, when she’d been 16 and Johnny had been ten.  Mrs. Templeton had also mailed Harry a Christmas present.  At least, there was no danger that Daddy would destroy her gifts!

“I hate him!”  He managed to choke back his sobs.  “I hate him!  I hate him!  I hate him!”  He slammed his left fist against the cold, hard ground.

then I really lost a great event, seeing everybody having fun like kids around the happiest place in the world. i have theater every night, so it was impossible to make that short trip. I'm not fan of rides but i know I could make a trip like that, but I will be part of it if i have with unlimited drinks and good company. Ted Lasso! right! I'm ashamed to say I haven't seen it yet, but thew reviews and bunch of awards proves that it's such a good one. are you having a fourth season or is it over? —God! I have too many shows to watch, this new streaming thing drives nuts with all the options that exist out there. Kathy is glorious, she is one of the best actresses out there and one of my best and closest friends too. It's been wonderful to work with her several times. Did you watch Bette and Joan? that's really great to hear! it's such a good show, talking about good actresses, we got Susan Sarandon, I can only say good things about her, it was great to work with her and we became really close after playing two legends who hate each other. but tell me, what's next for you? are you working on something new?

I get such great joy about seeing other folks happy, so even if I was having a bum time if I saw someone else having a blast then I'd for sure find myself having a good time. I took my son when he was a little boy, for his birthday, it was just him and a bunch of adults cheering him on when he was tall enough to ride the rides. He had the best day. It sounds weird, but it was nice to see a different side of folks, y'know when their guard is down and they're just... having fun, embracing their inner child. A fantastic cast if I remember rightly. Another one I started then got pulled away by life. I don't know how important it is, but our show was Ted Lasso, and it did pick up a few awards since it started, for all three seasons. Not so many for season three because we were completely overshadowed by The Bear and rightly so. Well, you have convinced me, Kathy Bates is always a joy to watch, and you are always so elegant in everything I've seen you in. I still recommend Bette and Joan to anyone who who will listen.
