#BITCHES KNOW THEY CANT CATCH ME

[bedforddanes75]

this is by no means an original thought but Omg the way u fucking "lyric obsessed~~ thought daughter~~ taylor swift~~ lana del rey~~" people act like rap is the WORST genre ever and deserves to die is soo weird because like. "they only talk about how tough they are and how they wanna kill people" first of all ur wrong second of all who was it who said "ur wife waters flowers i wanna kill her" 🤨 who was that 🤨🤨 u are simply Racist or at the very least NOT open to new ideas and genres (which is fine on its own (the second point .) but if u start shitting on it and calling it terrible just because u dont like it then u are DUMB) omg. "i listen for lyrics not sound" that is literally the number one reason u should listen to rap Hello even cupcakke has like Good lyrics please omg "i dont like how it sounds" that is a Better reason but they act like its one single genre and doesnt have nine thousand subgenres that sound Different. what

dexter fletcher goes go-karting in a piece promoting lock, stock and two smoking barrels (1998) - KARTRACING magazine, october 1998. 🏎️ 🚦more photos + article under the cut!

Dexter Fletcher and Nick Moran, stars of the new British film 'Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels', have raced karts indoors and they now fancied driving a racing kart outdoors. With some help from Deavinsons and their new PRD 2-stroke, KARTRACING was happy to oblige...

Club sound-system guru Darrin De-Grads contacted his friend Oli Wheeler (KARTRACING's track-tester) to see if he could arrange a 2-stroke PRD sample for his mates Nick and Dexter. The fact that they both wanted to experience the 2-stroke presented us with a fortuitous problem.

The inevitable spinning/stalling and push-starts that accompany the introduction to a traditional direct-drive machine present potential [?] for all concerned. Therefore, what we required was a user-friendly [2-stroke PRD,] one with a clutch. Since Deavinson's PRD is so equipped and [none of us] at KARTRACING have had a go in one, Oli and I arranged to meet Dexter and Nick at Rye House.

During the journey to Rye, Radio 1's film critic reviews, ironically, [covered] 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels'. Alarm bells should have [rang] when the character described Godzilla, in his round-up, as an underrated film and 'well worth checking out.' For his review of 'Lock, Stock...', he obviously decided that this highly praised film was due for a [?] and felt that the film's style, plot and structure were derivative of Quentin Tarantino, dismissing the film as merely a 'British Reservoir Dogs', a misplaced and ironic observation considering that Tarantino himself is always keen to explain how Reservoir Dogs is a pot-pourri of various movies.

However, what interested me was the negative application of the word 'derivative.' Now, without wishing to get into some philosophical [discussion,] what the hell isn't 'derivative' these days, and especially within the [?] of go-karting.

Deavinson's PRD is another attempt at devising a 'budget' 2-stroke - goodness me, how 'derivative!' [...]

Holy shit i just remembered i never introduced tumblr to Betrayal au im gonna change that

So basically, in betrayal au, Maya doesn’t meet the raiders till much later. Before that happens, she also experiences way more betrayal trauma, assassination/murder attempts and overall discrimination than in canon. In fact, pretty much all she lived from interactions with other people ended up being negative, or at best, neutral, either on the short or long run.

So naturally, instead of being open to form new relationships, she starts to distance herself from others. (Cauz yk. Who would want to try to socialize again after over 27 years of perpetual negativity from people? You try keeping your cool after that) By the time she finally meets the raiders, things are different than in canon…

That was the short version. Long version is under the cut

(I shall post a part 2 on bl3 BAU cauz theres a few important things to say about her and if i cram it in here the post will just be. Interminable.)

When she gets on Pandora, instead of directly joining the raiders, Maya is instead approached by a different group of so called « vault hunters » who offer her to work together to open the vault.

As time passes and she gets to know her teammates, even though the betrayal from the order of the impending storm still deeply affects her emotionally, she learns to trust and care for those new friends.

(For reference, the impending storm plot twist™️ also happens earlier, so she also gets to pandora sooner)

Well surprise! Turns out this was a trap too! The « vh » team lured her into trusting them so they could get their hands on a siren, after all. Plan devised by a commander in Hyperion, fyi.

In an act of self defense, she had to kill the very people she thought she could trust. Once again, it wasn’t her who was welcomed with open arms in a family. This whole time, all they cared about were her powers.

Now, this had happened twice, and this time, she nearly died. A part of her did die that day.

Every time she trusted people, it was used against her.

And how about the strangers she had met so far, well, in her life? Either avoided her, visibly feared her or tried to kill her. At best, they just went on to live their day.

So, she started to believe that maybe she was doomed to be left behind every time she tried to follow others. To get hurt every time she showed vulnerability. To be hunted. Feared. Hated.

And can you blame her?

I mean, after all, when was the last time people genuinely cared about her?

…

Did that ever happen in the first place?

So, as Pandora just seems to keep proving her fears are justified, she learns to become distant.

After making the same mistake twice, she wasn’t going to let people deceive her again. Now she knew that if she wanted to reach her goal to learn about sirens, it wasn’t by entrusting others with her help.

At some point, the crimson raiders offer to team up. But she won’t let her guard down so easily now. She refuses. I mean, what’s stopping them to just take all the info they need from her hands once they don’t need her help anymore?

So, led by nothing but bits of info and a mysterious voice in her head (As much as she’s real hesitant to follow the advice of the so called « ai » talking to her somehow, she’s the best lead she’s got.), she leads a one woman hunt for the vault key.

But things don’t go exactly as planned (as always). The moment she’s finally close to get the thing, guess who shows up? That’s right! The crimson fucking raiders, and they want the key too!

Lilith confronts her. She gives her another chance to work together, but Maya just can’t take that kind of risk a third time. So, siren fight ensues, and things seem to be going well, until Lilith decides enough is enough and uses eridium. However, instead of killing the fellow siren, she knocks her out and gets her to sanctuary.

Held captive by the raiders (You can thank Lilith for that btw. Homegirl can’t get herself to kill a fellow siren just yet) a deal is eventually made (working with other people may be the last thing she’d do under normal circumstances, but she has no choice. They caught her.)

So against her own will, she learns to know the people she works with, thinking that after the key is acquired, she’s just get the info she needs and then fuck off. But once again. Didn’t go as planned. These guys are way more loveable than expected-

Goddamn it.

She has one hell of a crisis when she realizes that not only she’s feeling herself starting to care about those people, but that this odd feeling she has whenever she’s with the odd one who screams about meat might be romantic attraction. (And it is)

It takes time, but the raiders eventually prove to her that this time, it’s mutual. Things get better after that 💜

(She’s still more of a bastard than canon tho. All this time of the intimidating distant facade taught her how nice it feels to be a lil mean. As a treat)

Another noticeable trait is the massive scar she has on her face. It was inflicted by one of the members of the fake vh team the day of the betrayal (it still brings a load of bad memories and she hates it) I shall post how the scar looks pretty soon.

(Other note, i would like to thank @rando-lesbo210 because her Fallen Heirs au is what inspired the creation of Betrayal au)

The post saying “get into nightvale by listening to the 10 year anniversary recap episode” is making me so mad sorry thats objectively one of the worst ways to get into any piece of long-form media

An anniversary episode only matters when youve spent that time with the characters especially with a series like nightvale where it is so a piece of art about an individuals life and the lives he is a part of
