#Chuck Gibson

[coupleofdays]

Hey there, Tron fans! Do you want yet another piece of cancelled Tron media to feel miserable about, since we most likely never will be able to see it finished? Then look no further than the planned 2004 Tron 2.0 comic!

The Tron 2.0 Wiki has a comprehensive summary of everything we know about the comic, and there's also this archived interview with the creators. What we know is certainly tantalizing. It seems to have been intended to be a sequel to the game, with a superheroic tone, with Jet Bradley jumping between being an ordinary human in the Real World and a colorful, superpowered protector of the digital world. Mercury would of course be his partner/sidekick, but what's especially interesting is the descriptions of two entirely new characters: A "digital viking" named Tek, and Odorus, who can apparently track Programs with his sense of smell (wait, computers programs have a sense of smell? How does that work? What does that represent?). The plot on the first planned miniseries (named "Derezzed") apparently revolved around these characters solving a murder mystery.

Sadly, the comic was never published, though we did get some cool cover images, including this one that appears to depict some new villains:

Some sketches for pages have also surfaced (they're all available on the Wiki page linked above), and I believe that one of them might actually show the "viking" character, in the lower right corner:

Another page has Jet and Mercury talking to an unknown character. Could they be Odorus? Or perhaps the murder victim?

Another intriguing thing is that there were apparently also plans for a story about the characters from the original film. This sketch page might be for that comic, or maybe a flashback sequence in the 2.0 comic:

Of course, we did eventually get a comic sequel to Tron 2.0 in the form of Tron: The Ghost in the Machine, but that was certainly something very different from the cancelled comic.

Before the Christmas move we all love near and dear to our hearts was mad in 1988.

Before Mel Gibson's best Christmas movie in 1987.

There was the first, best Christmas Action movie of my life, staring Chuck Norris.

USA Book haul 📚

I limited myself to 4 books because I didn't have a very big bag, and I only bought The Sunbearer Trials in hardback after a week of thinking about it because it was used and so half of its usual price. However, all of those are books I've been wanting to read for a while and have heard very good things about. Although, I did buy All These Sunken Souls mostly because of Joel Rochester, aka fictionalfates (go check out their yt channel/insta), who wrote one of the short stories in the anthology

If you're curious about these books, here are some summaries:

All These Sunken Souls: A Black Horror Anthology, edited by Circe Moskowitz

We are all familiar with tropes of the horror genre: slasher and victims, demon and the possessed. Bloody screams, haunted visions, and the peddler of wares we aren’t sure we can trust. In this young adult horror anthology, readers will get a little bit of everything they love—and a lot of what they fear—through a twisted blend of horror lenses, from the thoughtful to the terrifying.

Camp Damascus, by Chuck Tingle

Welcome to Neverton, Montana: home to a God-fearing community with a heart of gold.

Nestled high up in the mountains is Camp Damascus, the self-proclaimed “most effective” gay conversion camp in the country. Here, a life free from sin awaits. But the secret behind that success is anything but holy.

The Sunbearer Trials, by Aiden Thomas

As each new decade begins, ten semidioses are selected by the god Sol as the most worthy to compete in The Sunbearer Trials. The winner carries light and life to all the temples of Reino del Sol, but the loser will be sacrificed to Sol, their body used to fuel the Sun Stones that will protect the people of Reino del Sol for the next ten years.

Teo, a 17-year-old Jade semidiós and the trans son of Quetzal, has never worried about the Trials…or rather, he’s only worried for others.

But then, for the first time in over a century, Sol chooses a semidiós who isn’t a Gold. In fact, he chooses two. Now they must compete in five mysterious trials, against opponents who are both more powerful and better trained, for fame, glory, and their own survival.

A Dowry Of Blood, by S.T. Gibson

Saved from the brink of death by a mysterious stranger, Constanta is transformed from a medieval peasant into a bride fit for an undying king. But when Dracula draws a cunning aristocrat and a starving artist into his web of passion and deceit, Constanta realizes that her beloved is capable of terrible things.

Finding comfort in the arms of her rival consorts, she begins to unravel their husband's dark secrets. With the lives of everyone she loves on the line, Constanta will have to choose between her own freedom and her love for her husband. But bonds forged by blood can only be broken by death.

What's this? A book haul with less than a dozen books?! In all seriousness though, I am so beyond thrilled that we're in a place in life for So Many Books to be possible.

These are (mostly) a pre-order and the July Hollywood themed box from @rainbowcrate. I am SO EXCITED for the last volume of Guardian. Gabe already read it which means it's my turn!!! You can find Gabe's review already up on their Storygraph account. Once I'm finished reading Volume 3, we'll be making a Guardian spoiler free pitch video and a review with spoilers for the whole series.

Gabe is also obsessed with S.T. Gibson's Dowry of Blood, and Evocation is apparently also polyam, so I'm really excited we got this pretty Bookish Box edition resale!

We have an unboxing video for this Rainbow Crate box as well as a video version of our book haul coming out in the next day or two so stay tuned!

A surviving summer fanfic explaining why Summer's dad was never mentioned.

I still remember the first time I saw her. She was so small, so wrinkled, so... in need of protection and help. My little Summer. Margot had her nestled on her chest, a blanket wrapping around her in a fashion that only let her face peek out. A feeling of wonder overtook me. Did I really have a part in making that mound of flesh? Was she really my kid? Did I really get to raise her? Along with Margot? That was, that was a big responsibility. Maybe I wasn’t ready for this. Maybe I didn’t have what it took. I turned to leave and was almost at the door when I heard Summer grunt and squirm. She could make noises? I went back into the room and stood nervously beside Margot, unsure of what to do with my hands. 

Margot looked up at me, sweat and tears still staining her face. She managed an exhausted smile, ‘’Do you want to meet her?’’ 

Would she be safe with me? If I held her, would she shatter? Would she be scared of me? I was a big guy after all, and all the kids in our neighborhood ran away from me when I was outside. Was my daughter going to be just like them? I would never hurt her, and if I had it my way, no one ever would. But what would it take to convince her of that?  

Margot tugged on my sleeve, ‘’Chuck, she’s just a baby. She’s not going to hurt you.’’ 

I choked, ‘’What if I accidentally hurt her? What if--’’ 

Margot grabbed my hand and guided it to cup the back of Summers head. I was about to pull away when she opened her eyes and yawned. That was it. I was done for. My life would never be the same. I wouldn’t ever be the same. I was completely taken aback by how powerful babies could be. The rest of the world didn’t matter, all I could see was my little girl and my wife, the two most important people in my life, together, and safe.  

Safe. I had to make sure they were safe. I looked at the nurse who was monitoring Margot, ‘’There weren’t any complications, were there?’’ 

He looked up from his clipboard, ‘’No, both the mother and the baby are completely fine. They just need a bit of sleep and then they’ll be able to leave in the morning.’’ 

Wishing I had studied midwifery so I could tell for myself if there was something wrong with either of them, I looked at the monitors and machinery, trying to figure out what they meant. I had to know, I needed to make sure that they were okay.  

Margot kissed my hand, ‘’Honey, I’m okay. We’re both okay. Do you wanna hold her?’’ 

I don’t know how it happened, but I ended up cradling my baby girl, cooing and rubbing her back. I really got to be her dad? That was the greatest thing I’d ever be. Her dad. Forever. 

Three years later... 

‘’Daddy?’’ 

Wakefulness slowly began to seep into my consciousness, pulling me out of the depths of my mind. I cracked open my eyes, ‘’Summer? What's wrong?’’ 

Summer gripped her stuffed bear closer, ‘’Mommy’s crying.’’ 

I froze. Why would she be crying? Was somebody sick? Dead? Hurt? Moving away? Had she been fired? I closed my medical textbook and stood up, ‘’Where is she?’’ I put my glasses on. 

Summer grabbed me by the shirt and pulled me into the living room, stopping at the door and giving me a look that said to go in and check on her. I strode over and knelt beside her, ‘’Margot? What's happening?’’ 

She whipped her eyes and looked at me, ‘’I just got a message from my agent, and she said--’’ she burst into sobs again and buried her head into my chest. 

I wrapped my arms around her and rubbed circles into her back. I knew what her agent had said she had a new project in a foreign country. It had happened so many times. This time her agent hadn’t even given her the decency of a month's break. Seriously, what was wrong with them? I loved the work Margot did, it brought about change for the better, it was important. But I drew the limit when it upset her. I wanted to tell her to just ask for an extension or at least a raise, but now was not the time. Right now, she needed me, and to be honest, I needed her as well.  

‘’Here’s toilet paper.’’ 

I looked down to find Summer holding up a toilet roll, futilely trying to stop her lower lip from quivering. 

Gently, I reminded her that she could cry too, that I didn’t mind and that it was healthy.  

She looked back at me through glassy eyes, ‘’Mommy goes away all the time, it’s not sad anymore.’’ 

Tears stung my eyes as I took what she said in. Children weren’t supposed to be used to their mothers going away for weeks on end. They were supposed to be bowling their eyes out and begging their mothers to stay, or to take them with them.  

I pulled her into our hug. I knew she was sad too, and no poorly concealed act was going to convince me otherwise. Soon enough she was crying as well, her little body shaking along with Margot's. I whispered into their ears, ‘’I’ll fix it.’’ I didn’t know how I was going to fix it, but I was going to figure it out. If I was too small to fix it, I’d just get bigger. I had to. That’s what my dad taught me. 

Eventually they both fell asleep, and I took off my glasses.  

. . . 

‘’All I’m saying is you could ask for someone else to go,’’ I handed her the mug. 

She rubbed her four-head, ‘’I’ve already told you. You don’t turn Cassy Lane down. If she gives you a job, you consider yourself lucky.’’ 

I bit down the argument that always came to mind when we discussed her work. She wasn’t in the head space to hear logic. She just wanted to chew my ear, and if that meant she would be more logical later, I could wait and let her vent. 

I folded my hands, ‘’Cassy, that’s the new director at your form, right?’’ 

Margot nodded as she sipped her coffee, ‘’She was enrolled last year.’’ 

I dug my fingernails into my palm as I struggled to remain neutral, ‘’Wasn’t that the week before Summer’s birthday?’’ 

Margot swallowed, ‘’Mhm.’’ 

I didn’t consider myself a violent man, but sometimes I really wanted to throw a brick at Cassy. An unpopular thing for a man to say, I know. 

Collecting myself, I asked, ‘’She has a bunch of other photographers, right?’’ 

Margot frowned, ‘’Chuck, if you’re about to suggest that I tell her to pick another photograph, think carefully.’’ 

Smoothing out my anger, I raised my hands in surrender, ‘’I wasn’t going to go there. If there’s one thing I’ve learnt over the past year, it’s that Cassy Lane can’t be reasoned with. By anyone.’’ 

Margot grimaced, ‘’That’s right.’’  

Choosing my next words carefully, I asked, ‘’So when do you leave?’’ 

She sucked in a breath, ‘’Day after tomorrow.’’ 

‘’Do you need any help fighting with the airport?’’ 

She laughed dryly, ‘’No, you just stick to your textbooks and guns,’’ she paused, ‘’The Gibsons offered to babysit Summer during the week from twelve to five while I’m gone.’’ 

I really wished I could take care of Summer myself, but my job as a cop and studies to be a doctor only enabled me to spend three hours at best with her. But what else could I do? I needed to provide for my family, and the way the economy looked, I wouldn’t be able to do that for long with a cop's salary. For the sake of my pride, I asked, ‘’Maybe we should hire a sitter.’’ 

Margot shook her head, ‘’I don’t feel like looking for one right now. Not until this trip is over.’’ 

I rubbed her back, right in the spot she always carried the most tension, ‘’I could do it.’’ 

She lifted an eyebrow. 

I raised my hands, ‘’Okay, fare point.’’ 

She rested her head on my shoulder, ‘’Just don’t let her or yourself die, okay?’’ 

I kissed the top of her head, ‘’Okay.’’ 

One year later... 

I buckled Summer’s seatbelt and climbed out of the back seat. Before I could close the door though, Summer tugged on my jacket. I looked down at her, ‘’Is something wrong Sums?’’ 

She looked at me dead in the eyes and asked, ‘’We’re not going to crash, right? You're not going to die?’’ 

I turned and looked at Margot, whose face I’m sure mirrored my shock. I turned back to her, ‘’No, I’m going to be fine. We’re going to be fine. Why do you ask?’’ 

She frowned and started nervously twiddling her thumbs, ‘’I don’t know. M’ just askin’.’’ 

Again, I wondered if it was a good idea to explain why we couldn’t see my mother anymore. Explaining the concept of life and death to a kid as young as Summer might not have been my best of ideas, but what else was I supposed to do?  

Margot squeezed herself into the car, ‘’Are you okay Summer?’’ 

Summer looked up at her with watery eyes, ‘’No dying?’’ 

Margot shook her head and wrapped Summer up in her arms, ‘’No dying. Daddy and I aren’t going to die,’’ she looked back at me and gestured for me to get into the other passenger seat. 

Once I was squeezed in, I started working through her hair, ‘’No dying, not today.’’ 

Summer bit her lip, ‘’Promise?’’ 

My throat clenched, ‘’I can’t promise that, but mommy and I will do our best not to die. Okay?’’ 

Summer sniffed and then nodded her head, ‘’Okay.’’  

Margot got out of the car, and I got into the driver's seat. While I was strapping myself in, Margot leaned against the open window, ‘’Keep an eye on her.’’ 

I nodded, ‘’Of course, see you tonight,’’ after giving her a peck on the cheek, we were off. 

As I drove through town to Summer’s preschool, I kept checking on her with the mirror. Maybe she was sick? Or hurt? Did she think she was going to die and just masked that by asking about myself and Margot. Had I been neglectful? I was literally training and studying to be a doctor, if there was really something wrong with her, I should’ve picked it up by now.  

She caught my eye and stuck out her tongue, ‘’It’s rude to stare.’’ 

I chuckled, more for her benefit than my own, ‘’Right, sorry.’’ 

She battled to cross her arms, then frowned, ‘’You should ask for my forgiveness.’’ 

I looked back at the road, ‘’You’re right. Summer, will you please forgive me?’’ 

Summer hummed in thought, ‘’Okay. I forgive you.’’ 

I glance back at her, ‘’Thank you.’’ 

Summer tried and failed to stop her giggles. 

I smile as I turn back to the road. 

Soon enough, we were at her preschool, and I was hugging her goodbye. I kneel in front her and hold her gently by the shoulders, letting her look down at me, ‘’Are you ready for this? you don’t need a day off?’’ 

She shook her head, ‘’No. Besides, Ari’s going to be there. He’ll take care of me till you fetch me.’’ 

I ruffled her hair, ‘’Okay. But if you change your mind, just ask your teacher to call me or mommy.’’ 

She nodded absently, already shrugging my hands off, ‘’Okay. I love you,’’ she kisses my four-head and runs off backwards, waving at me. 

I wave and smile after her. Getting off the pavement and dusting off my pants, I ignored the disapproving looks from the other parents and got into my car.  

Turning the keys and pressing the clutch, I reversed out of the parking lot. That’s when it hit me. I was waving goodbye to my little girl, hoping that she was okay, when a car crashed into the back of my pickup.  

I thought I was fine at first. I could talk, I could see, I could smell, I could feel the leather under my four-head, and I could taste the blood after biting my tongue. I could still move; I knew that because I could lift my head and check if Summer was running towards me or not. She wasn’t. Thank everything good in the world that she hadn’t seen me. She made it inside in time. She didn’t have to see her daddy hurt. 

Someone outside my car was screaming for an ambulance. At least I thought someone was screaming to get an ambulance until I realized I was the one screaming, my throat turning to sandpaper. I was much worse off than I initially thought. I wanted to examine myself, I really did. But wait, why couldn’t I breathe? What was happening to me? I shouldn’t be hurt. I had to protect Summer and Margot. I had to be bigger than this. I had to, I had to... I can’t think... I, I think I’m going to black out. I can’t die. If I'm losing consciousness, I better only be blacking out. I’m only blacking out. I’ll wake up, I will. I promise. I’m coming back Summer. I promise. I’ll always come back. Because I'll always be big enough. Just wait, okay Sums?

rant incoming!

I fully believe that the expendables series is one of the biggest wasted potentials of a movie series in recent cinema history. This series could have (and should have) leaned heavily into the energy of the expendables 2, which is the best one imo so I might be biased, where it leaned into the fact that it was a bunch of aging action stars from various eras and embraced it instead of constantly trying to hand things over to younger cast members or botching what could have been one of the most entertaining franchises to exist. I mean for goodness sake Jean Claude Van Damme is literally named Vilain and is generic villain™️!!

I personally enjoy these movies because I'm there to watch some of my favorite action stars be cool and shoot up crap and pal around, and thats what it always should have been. Now, it can be as serious or unserious as it wants to be (like I've stated before I lean towards 2 so that's my preference of the ratio) but it should have been focused on this cast of characters. I understand that Stallone had stated with the third movie that he wanted it to open to a wider/younger audience but I really think that was the wrong choice. As far as I've seen from various fan response, we are all here to watch this cast! these guys! Not some younger actors we don't really care about. They should have ham'd it up! Maybe they kill off some mebers every once in a while if they want to keep it interesting. They are the expendables after all! They could bring on so many cool actors too. Imagine if in the expendables 3, instead of being what it is, they brought in some of the female action stars from the 80s / 90s! They could be new additions to the team, a mercenary squad that has a cool, friendly yet competitive rivalship with them, or even as villains! Sigourney Weaver, Linda Hamilton, Uma Thurman, Michelle Yeoh, etc!! So many cool ladies that would have been a fantastic and fun way to keep the movies fresh while staying on brand. Now if they wanted to bring on younger crowds then maybe bring on some more established "modern" action stars then. Ronda Rousey kinda makes sense to me because to my understanding she's fighter in real life. I do think you can bring on newcomers and I'm welcome to it! But I wish they didn't want to hand it over to them. I understand many of these actors are aging and may not want to do this forever and thats completely fine, but i feel that there is a better way then how they went. Also! longer standing villains would be so great! Not necessarily like Thanos but maybe keep them on for more then one movie. Allow establishing time or allow more time to have the battle of good v evil! I.e Vilain was two movies and not one, Stonebanks (who was wasted in 3 smh) given 2 or 3 movies due to his connection with barney or 4 if they had a really good concept/reasoning/writing, etc. There's so much I could probably add and maybe I will later if i think of it but it saddens me to see the state of where this franchise is heading. I hate that Tool hasn't been back once, his arc will never be finished. I hate that so many actors that should be in this arent any more or never will get to be due to its decrease in quality. I hate that the latest movie feels like the lacroix equivalent of a tangerine. I hate that these movies have had more bad than good recently. I know they were never masterpieces, but as someone who loves action films and enjoys many of these actors movies, it was such a fun franchise and one that's potential has been squandered. It's just sad. This is also coming from someone who is relatively new to this series. I didn't grow up with this so I have no nostalgia or anything, I'm not blinded by rose tinted glasses. I'm just a fan who wishes better for this series. I hope we get a movie that absolutely revives and revitalizes this franchise but after 4, I'm not betting anything on it.

feeling like we should have gotten sequels to the A-Team (2010) instead right now

783: Dana Daniels - Disney Deceptionist

Dana Daniels was one of the famous Long Beach Mystics when he was growing up in California and later found a career with Disney at Disneyland where he took on many roles before ending up in the Golden Horseshoe. In recent years, he and his bird, Luigi, have enjoyed the Hawaiian lifestyle as performers at Warren & Annabelle’s, a magic dinner theater in Lahiana, Maui, Hawaii.

As many of you know, a fire ravaged the island and destroyed homes and businesses across the island wreaking havoc, death and devastation. One of the businesses that was affected was Warren & Annabelle’s which burned to the ground. Warren Gibson, owner of the club, has started a Go-Fund-Me which is set up to financially assist the families of employees who have lost their jobs, homes, and everything. You can visit the Go-Fund-Me site by Clicking Here. Please help if you can with any amount of financial support you can give.

This week Dana talks about his magic roots as he joined the Long Beach Mystics and how they supported and helped him grow to the success he is today. He also talks extensively about his time at Disney and how his career careened and veered into many areas. Finally, Dana wraps up this episode talking about his involvement with Warren & Annabelle’s. This episode was recorded just 24 hours before news broke about the devastating fire, so it is timely and appropriate that you listen to his excitement and fondness for the club where he expected to work indefinitely.

25 of the Most Obscenely Patriotic Movies Ever 2023-06-30 18:30:00

Raise a glass, America. It’s the Fourth of July. Independence Day. Your special day. Why not celebrate with an over-the-top, ultra-violent action spectacular celebrating the can-explode spirit of the country that we all love? Patriotism means a lot of things to a lot of people, and these movies all try, bless ‘em, to exemplify shining American ideals… but with mixed results and some, uh,…

Dealing With My Bullies

Asher:

These three right here; Kyle, Chase, and Jordan have spent majority of my life bullying me. I’ve put with years of name calling, being pushed down, and even having my head put into a toilet.

And I thought I was done with them the second I wrapped up with high school. But unfortunately, everywhere I turn— those assholes are somewhere.

I’ve tried to ignore them, complained to our school, even tried fighting back but for some reason they have it out for me.

So I’m deciding to take a more drastic measure— magic. Well I assume it’s magic, i don’t even know if this is going to work but at this point I’m desperate!

I found this old book of spells inside of a weird book store. The price on it was pretty steep and even the owner of the store warned me to be careful with it.

As I got home and into my room, I looked through all of the different spells that were available for me to plot my revenge. I mean I could turn them all into toads but where’s the fun in that?

Nah! I want something that’s going to shift the dynamics a bit. I want to hear at least one of them give me an apology.

I kept turning through the book when my eye caught this one spell called; ‘Body Transferal.’

My heart started to race a bit as I read what all the spell does, I can literally swap bodies and become one of them. Thats it!

I laid back in bed thinking about which one of the three I wanted to swap bodies with…

You have Kyle who I really think is only pressured by the other two to participate.

Chase who has been terrible to me could work but he’s not the real leader of their crew.

That leaves me with Jordan, the one who started everything. That’s who I’ll become, I’ll swap with Jordan!

I open the book back up and read all of the necessary things to complete the swap.

‘A stormy night, a silver bowl, plant seeds, a portrait of Jordan, and both of our names written down on a piece of paper that’s burned into the bowl.’

I pull my phone out and check the weather… it’s forecasting a big storm… perfect!

I gather all of the necessary things to perform the spell which was pretty easy.

I waited until the time recommended for the spell right around midnight.

I gather everything and start reciting the spell… I follow each step as listed and begin to burn both of our names into the bowl.

Lighting strikes close and I can hear thunder booming in background as I say, “Transfer our souls! I, Asher White and Jordan Gibson!” Over and over again.

Then a loud boom of thunder hits and the power goes off for a second. I close my eyes tight waiting for the spell to kick in.

That’s when the power comes back on and I open my eyes. I turn to my bedroom mirror and see my disappointed face looking back at me.

I take the Spellbook and I chuck it out my window since I’m slightly frustrated it didn’t work.

It was worth a shot I guess, I figured I might as well go to bed and just forget that I even tried something so silly!

As I fall asleep… I start having this weird dream. In it I find myself floating and somehow hovering over my body.

I start floating more and more away from it until I’m outside…

I’m passing streets for miles and I have no control of where I’m going at all.

I get a house and I see this other glowing ball shaped like a person floating right pass me. I can barely see what I’m looking at since I was still moving so fast. Thats when I get a window and see a bedroom with a male body sleeping face down.

Before I can even get a full picture of who it is, I’m forced into him.

That’s when I wake up…

My head jolts up and I feel so groggy. It takes a second for my eyes to adjust and my brain to catch up after that dream.

Almost an entire minute goes by before I can really take in my surroundings. Thats when it hit me… this isn’t my room!

I flip over on the bed and look down at my legs. They’re more tan than mine and my feet are bigger. I wiggle the toes attached to me just to confirm I now control them.

My memory of last night creeps in and then I realize— the spell, it actually worked!

I quickly get out of bed and rush to the closest mirror I could find. That’s when I see what I already expected. Jordan’s reflection looking back at me.

I pull of all of his shirt and start giggling to myself.

I say aloud, “I’m Jordan Gibson”

But then something else sinks in, the freaking Spellbook! I tossed it out my window last night!

I rush through Jordan’s room and put on some of his clothes quickly.

I grab his car keys and head out the door.

As I’m driving down the road, I can’t help but continuously looking at myself in the mirror. You see one of the biggest things I hate about Jordan is my secret lust for him. Actually my real lust for a lot of the jocks that went to school with me.

But in this moment, I don’t feel that same anger anymore. All I can think about is how after I find this Spellbook, I’m going to enjoy exploring his body.

I get to my house and I see my parents drive off. As they pull away, I pull up to the front.

I run over directly under my window where I see the Spellbook lying in the bushes. I quickly grab it and run off.

Before I get into his car I look up at the window and to my surprise I see myself looking down.

I grin up at Jordan who now learning that I have control of his body.

I see my eyes get big and screams. I almost walk away but instead I look around my neighborhood to see no one’s around.

I pull Jordan’s pants down and start shaking his surprisingly huge dick in front of him while sticking his tongue out.

He’s fuming and shouting but I can’t hear him the glass. I see him rush from the window and I bolt it to his car with his flapping all over the place.

I pull his pants up and star his car. He’s at my front door and charging for me (which is funny seeing my body that angry.)

I pull away just in time and head back to his place. I reach down and fondle his big bulge all the home.

I knew he was going to come here and I really didn’t need him to make a scene.

So I had to think fast, pull out the spell book and dig through until I find a ‘love spell.’

I go into his kitchen and I find all of the necessary things for the spell.

He hasn’t arrived yet so I pull his shirt off and start exploring his body. I grab on to his dick again when I hear a loud knock at the door.

“Oh you’re going to really love yourself Jordan.”

“You better open up!!” I hear my former voice scream.

I grab my new magical potion and walk towards the door.

I let him in and as he begins to charge at me, I lift up the magical potion and toss it right at him.

I close the door and turn around to see my former dazed. His face goes from straight anger to looking almost goofy.

“Asher… you look soo sexy in my body,” he says to me.

“Oh do I?”

“Can I please touch it?”

“Well Jordan you’re going to need to prove yourself to me.”

“Anything for you!”

He gets on his knees and grabs on to his former hands.

“Anything?,” I say with a mischievous smirk.
