#Andrew doesn't intimidate her but she respect him

[our-king-bree]

woke up loving the headcanon where Katelyn finds out that Andrew calls her "the cheerleader" –and mind you, she's very proud of being a cheerleader but she's been told that Andrew does it with a condescending tone and that just won't do– so she starts calling Andrew "the goalie".

When Andrew finds out he doesn't get mad but he's offended like c'mon Katelyn couldn't think of something else? He's getting associated with the position he, reluctantly, plays in Exy? That's just wrong. Of course he doesn't tell anyone that this bothers him, he will rather die than admit that the cheerleader got under his skin –annoying, intolerable, should've got rid of her when he got the chance. Whatever now's too late, Aaron's too attached and they're making progress, he won't harm the cheerleader but only because he's on good terms with his brother and he doesn't want that to change–. So he doesn't tell anyone but he, slowly, progressively, definitely not rushing, he doesn't care that much, stars referring to Katelyn as Katelyn.

The first few times he calls her different varieties of her name along with "the cheerleader". It goes like this:

"It's the cheerleader Kamila coming?"

"Will the cheerleader, uhm, Kara be there?"

"With who? The cheerleader? Kaylee?"

Aaron can see that something is going on but whatever it is will probably be good for them as brothers. After all, he still refers to Neil as Josten –and sometimes asshole, sue him Josten is an asshole–. So he doesn't say anything but just nods along and says "Yeah, Katelyn it's coming" "Yeah, Katelyn will be there".

When Andrew finally calls Katelyn Katelyn, Aaron can't stop smiling and he even texts Kate the news with a lot of emojis and exclamation marks ((((HE CALLED YOU KATELYN LIKE ACTUALLY KATELYN AND NOT KAVINSKY OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT!! ☺️☺️💕💕❤️��🩹❤️‍🩹🙏🙏)))

Katelyn beams proudly. She does not stop calling Andrew "the goalie" for at least another eight months, she is petty like that. And if she sometimes calls Andrew "Andres" no one needs to know.

All the Foxes know, she calls him Andres in front of every single one of the Foxes cause she may like them but she knows they can't keep a secret if their life depended on it. Once again she is petty like that.

Reputation as Dorm leaders:

Henry: Very respected and looked up to… many students are intimidated but many also wanna approach him cause of business or his wealth so he is quite a popular student among NRC Brid: Many just assume... that Odel is the dorm leader and ignore her... she can't seem to get authority and people barely remember her She really struggles with that Barry: Many people are aware of his arrogance and to many students he is a bother, there is a few who do give him the time and popularity because he basically bought them to be his underlings but aside that… many are annoyed Osyron and Lydia: Hella scary to many students, they barely see the gods and if don't know if talking to them won't get them in trouble. Kuze: Many students see him as the junior, the Dorm leader that doesn't seem like one and instinctly would approach Yasuno more about dorm stuff… so he is liked but not really respected Erena: Given most see her as a chaotic adventurer other students also are not convinced untill she talks with them and you see how much charisma she has as a dorm leader and how to win her over well... She just wants fun and is a capable fighter in itself Flynn: As said he has a fanclub and many admirers but that is also true for Nanoya and Rubina, many know about his sketchyness and warn not to reveal too much to him. Peko: A lot of fans and big popularity among many students hence haters are quickly silenced… or at least yelled at by supporters… however higher year students often know how lazy as dorm leader she is and admire Emma more Tyler: Not many outside the dorm see him much but they often call him grumpy and many also just don't want to face his anger so he is only approached by people who know him, dorm members or fashionable to model students Gabrielle: Many Students admire her and cheer for her, also has a small fanclub and is highly respected among the campus. Its really hard to raise a voice against her. Aiden: Aside doing his dorm duty a loner and avoided cause of his criminal record, only dorm members really approach him… and some Exodus students cause of Kayne as well as some Valhunny students Sindren: Some are annoyed by the hero act, others admire her, some try to gain her favour cause of her money but Mythra shoes those away Dragiselle: the most secluded Dorm leader… Inessa does most of her task so not many met her, serves a similar Role to Malleus that not many have seen her at all... but in her case its protect others from her powers

War and Peace (1)

I completed Book 1 of Volume 1 of War and Peace (tr. Louise and Aylmer Maude). Considering this as an accomplishment even though I have 900 more pages to read. The size of this book was really intimidating in the beginning and I was going slower than my usual pace. I was finding it difficult to keep track of the characters. This is my first book from Russian literature and some people told me that I shouldn't have chosen this as my first read. Anyways, here I am completely invested in the plot and the characters, and I hope I will start going faster now. The speed doesn't really matter as long as I am enjoying the book. Here are a few things that I wanted to talk about because I am really liking this book.

Pierre. This guy is really something. Returned from abroad, not used to social gatherings, doesn't know what to do in life, and takes part in tying a bear down with a policeman and throwing them in a river. I found his character quite interesting and hilarious, though I am yet to find out more about him and this is just kind of a first impression.

Anna Mikhaylovna. She is one determined and head strong woman. I found her really irritating in some parts, especially when she was begging Prince Vasili for Boris' transfer, but I have to admit that she, in no way, would leave what's hers, and would definitely go to extreme lengths to get what she wants.

Natasha Rostova. Charming. She is the one who lights up the room with her charm and without her any party would be boring. She is young and full of life.

Andrew Bolkonsky and his wife, Lise. He grew out of love after marriage. Why bro? I understand that he doesn't like women who like to gossip and enjoy parties but didn't he know that Lise was a typical society woman? He shouldn't project his hatred of societal norms towards women. Except for this aspect of his, I find him quite charming.

Andrew and Pierre. I want what they have. I want someone to look at me like Andrew looks at Pierre.

About the backdrop, there is a big part talking about the Napoleonic wars. There are many historical figures mentioned. I try to look up and read about them sometimes but it can be tiring as the incidents of the wars are mentioned quite frequently. Younger men are more driven towards European culture and like the war strategies played by Bonaparte while the older generation don't like him at all. Though the younger men idolize Bonaparte, their sense of nationalism and respectability that comes with fighting a war drives them to join the military.

The major plot twist that I found so far was Pierre getting the major share of Count Bezukhov's fortune while Prince Vasili getting none. I laughed so hard when it was revealed.

[cosmicdreamt]

it was a painful thing what his heart did to him, but only because he didn’t understand the concepts of love. of adoration. what it meant to want to give one’s heart to another. it was stupid, the whole thing. well, anything that didn’t involve anger, frustration, something beyond his emotional capabilities was stupid to him. he sits in his usual silence, face contorted with his usual frown and furrowed brows, narrowed eyes meant solely for intimidation, drowned in the lively chatter and occasional laugh from one of illusione’s gang members, sat around joined tables, tugging chairs along so they would all have a tight little circle. coffees, pastries, early morning buzz, the warm rays of the rising sun gleaming through windows.

it all seemed perfect, despite how crazy their lives were — and it’s only when neff begins to talk, that chime in her voice that seemed to draw andrew out of his little daydream, the way her laugh would mix in with the others. a smile almost wants to tug at his lips, but he’s more embarrassed by what he feels when ears simply catch her beautiful laugh. the way his heart thumps away in his chest, how his face feels hot. to think they were dating, that andrew had been the one to have the honour of being loved by someone like her. and he felt like a boy with a raging crush, who couldn’t quite figure out what the hell all these feelings were. when she circles around, it’s when his arm wraps ‘round curvy waist, tugging her closer to his side before pulling her to his lap. “ take a damn break for a second, will ya ? people ain’t gonna come in for another hour. ” muttered words, before he partially hides his flushed face in her shoulder. he cares and maybe he was a little tired of denying it. ♡

It was a first to have them in her café so early, but now Neff knows better than to pitch any sort of idea even as a joke because they'll run with it like the world was ending tomorrow.

And maybe it was true, that's how they lived. It could end tomorrow for any of them at any point - such was the crim life after all. Such was the path they'd all managed to walk on because of everything that happened in their lives. It was so strange to know she was one of the brighter things in their dark little world, one of the few things that kept them from going completely off the edge at times. But they respected her. They respected her and her own authority over what she had and her ability to remain strong in her own morals no matter what.

And she cared for them. She wishes they all could have had something better. So she'd make them something better. Doesn't matter if it was "too late" for them or not, she'd give them better days, better minutes, better seconds - to look back on and be able to genuinely smile again.

And apparently they appreciated her so much that when she said she wanted them to try her food fresh for once there wasn't even time to discuss.

'Alright! We'll come tomorrow before you open'

Now here they are - getting served the hottest, freshest batch of today's menu items and seeing the smiles on their faces as they enjoy it all ( never falling to compliment her work ) has her smiling along with them.

And then of course...there was him.

He who was the last one any of them expected would be the one to win her heart, but how could he not? Her healing soul yearned to reach out to the most troubled of the group and the person she got to know was the person she found herself falling in love with. She knew there was more to him than just those furrowed brows, the tightened jaw, the overflowing anger that became all that he was used to. When you're in survival mode like that all the time it's not easy to let anything else in. It's not easy to accept any type of positive change when you believe nothing good will ever stay.

But he let her in. He accepted her. He trusted her.

And he loved her.

There's only mild surprise when he wraps his arms around her and pulls her into his lap, giggling at his behavior. Everything was different when it was with him - her giggles, her smiles, her touch. It was filled with feelings and emotions that were reserved just for him. Hands reach to cup his cheeks and pry him from his hiding space. There he was. While most people would see him as the same angry and aggressive man - she saw so much more. She saw the blush on his cheeks, the redness at the tips of his ears, the softness in his gaze. She felt the emotion in his touch, the way he handled her so protectively like she was worth more than anything in the world.

She smiles as she gazes at this man, peppering feather soft kisses under his eyes and to his lips. One kiss remains longer than the others - a secret little promise of her love for him. It's only when she pulls away, forehead pressed to his, that she decides to respond.

"If you want me to take a break you're gonna have to steal me away from here. Maybbeee..... somewhere quiet. Peaceful. Where neither of us have to worry about work even if just for a little while. Just the two of us in our own little world. What do you say to that?"

Life stories: Simon Clarke

Joanne (presenter): What keeps you awake at night, like what do you regret the most?

Simon: I don't know if I regret anything because everything teaches you something. Everything we go through is a lesson in life.

Joanne: That's the diplomatic response. What's the real response? If you could change something what would be?

Simon: There's this girl, anyone that listens to this podcast regularly probably knows all about her. Well, I can't regret us ending, because she's getting married in, what's the date? She's getting married in less than a month and she's meant to be happy so I don't regret us ending. I regret being so unimportant in her eyes that we don't still speak. I regret that, more than anything. I don't know if she was the 'one' but she was a friend. A friend I will forever adore.

Joanne: Does that keep you awake at night.

Simon: I wouldn't go that far but there are days I wonder about her.

Joanne: If she was watching this show, what would you say to her?

Simon: I'm sorry I never made her happy and I'm sorry she felt pressured by me. There's this story where a mutual friend once told me, this girl who I don't want to name Joanne, I really don't. You've shown pictures there but she doesn't look the same anymore not even the same coloured hair. Anyway this mutual friend told me she 'hates me for bringing her up'. Honestly, I'm sick of talking about it but I was always taught there's no taboo subject.

Joanne: Do you wish you two stayed in touch?

Simon: Mixed. (looking uncomfortable and shifting) I wish we never drifted so apart into two different circles but the circle she mixes in aren't compatible with the circle I drift in. I don't want to sound like an arrogant asshole. I mean it's nothing to do with superiority or a god complex. The circles I drift in are quite intellectual. Political debates, university alumina, professional jobs, e-sports. The circles she drifts in are more materialistic or hobby orientated. Motorbikes, sports etc. I mean some of those people think I'm literally the worst thing to happen to her, while some of the people in my circle find those who can't debate infuriating. The reality is the person she is now and the person I am now are completely different.

Joanne: Moving on to the death of your mom. Can you remember the day you found out?

Simon: Like it was yesterday. I got woke up in the morning while the paramedics were in my kitchen. I got told that my mom had died in her sleep and as you can imagine my father was in bits. I didn't know how to process it initially so I stayed in my room for about an hour. As time passed, I just wanted to be hugged and told I wasn't as alone as I felt.

Joanne: I'm sure your sisters and brother were by your side.

Simon: Of course, but they were trying to come to grips with it too. To be entirely honest, I reached out to a friend the following day or within the next few days. It became a blur that week but I remember distinctly that the one female who I loved and depended on to that level other than my mother was my ex. I spent the time up until the funeral genuinely believing she would pop over and check up on me even after we broke up on bad terms.

Joanne: How did your friend react , how did they support you?

Simon: As we've touched on, I was a loner in school. Until near the end of high school, I was a bullied shy kid. I didn't have any true friends. But this moment, this terrible event, Matthew made me realise I would never have to go through a travesty alone. He took time out to go for a drink with me during that week and he took the day off work to go to my mom's funeral. He's a complete atheist. He think's my philosophy on the afterlife is closer to Stephen King than history textbooks but he literally walked probably a few miles to and from the funeral just to show his support. I've never told him how much that meant to me. But I'd like to think he just knows.

Joanne: I'm sure he wasn't the only friend over that time?

Simon: No, I have another fantastic friend called Andrew. I had a very bitter falling out over him trying to get me support and honestly anyone else would have knocked me out for the abuse I gave him over it. He just laughed it off. One of two friends that I can depend on, hopefully and as far as I'm concerned the rest of my life.

Joanne: You mentioned the girl again (picture of 2011 as a couple goes on screen), her family is your neighbour right so they knew about what happened with your mom but didn't she text you or call in?

Simon: Her parents lived opposite the street, but she never asked or showed concern on my wellbeing. I have no entitlement of that care. It's her right to feel or act in any legal way she wishes. I'll respect her freedom to do that for as long as I can.

Joanne: How does that make you feel?

Simon: It made me realise our perspectives on the 18 months we were in a relationship were different. For me, it was a fantastic period and I imagine for her it's best to forget it.

Joanne: Does that bother you?

Simon: Should it? People change, circumstances change. Can we move on?

Joanne: OK. We'll go to a break... Welcome back. I'd like to talk about university and is it true that you were warned before you enrolled?

Simon: As a 18 year old child. I made a stupid comment about a friend publicly on Facebook. My friend found it hilarious and it's the sort of dark humour we say to each other over voice chat and in person but someone twisted what I said to imply someone who died in my local area. Well implied the post was about them. I never met and couldn't care less about them. I apologised and thought that was the end of it but a formal police report was filed and the individuals informed my university who at this point had just provided me with an offer to enrol that I accepted. I mean top business college diploma in the county, they ripped the hands off for me. So that was interesting. The university was great about it. The police were as incompetent as you can imagine but it did teach me that don't say anything on social media that can't be literally taken. Like this will go up on YouTube and Tumblr. So anything I say can be proved.

Joanne: How did you emotionally react to this event, where what you said was taken out of context?

Simon: Betrayed by others but I was stupid and naiive. You can't be those things especially as a successful businessman. At this time a lot of falsehoods and rumours came around ranging from me being a drug addict to committing sexual assault. It was obvious at this point those who had ever had a conversation with me knew that I had traditional moral values so the accusations were as ridiculous as they sound. Childish rumours spread to squash what I had to say. My friends just ignored them, and the people the bullshit influenced were better off not in my life anyway.

Joanne: I've only met you twice and you're quite outspoken about some controversial subjects but its obvious to me morally your the other way. Severely punish criminals, probably too far in my opinion.

Simon: I agree, my opinions can be quite controversial but I'm as against illegal drugs as I love a cup of tea. Even my critics would tell you that.

Joanne: You've gone from a social media account with 50000 followers overall to less than a tenth of the size. Why do you think this is and does it bother you?

Simon: I used to be a depressing blogger with poems, and writing that was soul crushing but honest about my thoughts or feelings about myself. I then started to feel less lost so naturally started writing about facts not emotions. Politics was always a topic I found fascinating. I've always been debating since I can remember. I get off on a debate, which is why it's hilarious to mock those that call you names because they can't debate the facts of the topic. I started looking at things like the wage gap and white privilege economically and they don't hold up to the scrutiny expected in academic work. They just don't. Those that believe either of those things are either stupid or lied too.

Joanne: I don't want to go down the rabbit hole of politics because it's become who you are but if I can, I want to touch on 'getting off' of those that call you names in other words 'Trolls' can you elaborate on that?

Simon: I'll give you an example. I'm quite camp just look at what I'm wearing so I got an anon message on Tumblr once that read 'you are a gay homophobic sexist Nazi that should just kill yourself'. How hilarious is the stupidity of that statement. If I was gay, I couldn't be homophobic and gay people aren't allowed to be a Nazi. It shows the idiocy of these people that are probably children.

Joanne: Does these kind of hate messages matter to you?

Simon: Of course it matters, everybody wants to be liked. Those that claim otherwise are lying. But the opinions of people I've never met who are so ashamed of themselves they hide through anonymous, do not matter to me. The opinions of friends and parents of friends matter to me.

Joanne: You once said you were 'bad with women'.

Simon: Oh God, yea. I really wish I hadn't had said that. It was on an emotional post at 3am. It was a spur of the moment thought. I don't think I'm naturally bad with women but I am a marmite figure. I'm not universally liked. Most people I meet are probably intimidated by me. I think the women that I find attractive clearly don't normally find me attractive.

Joanne: Why is that? What type of women do you find attractive?

Simon: I'm probably a 6 out of ten, if I could lose the acne probably a good 7. I tend to fall for either the tall slim blonde or the short petite unique person. I'm quite simple like that. Then if they are able to debate or disagree with me brilliantly, I just adore them.

Joanne: (laughs) So you see yourself as just above average?

Simon: In looks, I do. In style, I'm quite unique and some people hate that I stand out. In personality, I am extremely demanding but I also expect that from myself.

Joanne: Do you ever think about children?

Simon: I did. I thought about marriage and kids but I've only ever found three people in 21 years that I could see having a life with. I do think about children's names though, I have top three for both genders. For a boy: Constantine, Excalibur or Arthur. For a girl: Katherine, Kate or Kathleen.

Joanne: Do you think it's fair when some people refer to you as egotistical, arrogant or psychotic?

Simon: It's no business of mine what other's perceive me to be. I can only concentrate on who I am and I'm none of those things.

Joanne: Do you like being the centre of attention with someone claiming you 'have to be seen to be the most overdressed person because you need the attention?

Simon: I don't mind it, but I don't actively pursue it. I don't really mind whether someone outshines me. I love a challenge and I think demanding the best from myself constantly while can be quite exhausting to see, is who I am whether that's monopoly, gaming or dressing.
