Sunsets and footballers (Part 90)
Lucy Bronze x Reader (68) & Jordan Nobbs x Leah Williamson (23)
Masterlist (other parts here)
((3.4k))
Due to popular demand, I'm going to post a chapter bi-weekly, every Thursday and Sunday night until we hit Part 100!
YFN POV
âFor someone so independent, youâre very needy,â Jordan chuckled.
YFN pouted, looking at her watch again. âTheyâve been gone all fucking day. Surely thatâs a bad thing?â
The slightly smaller woman shrugged. âNot necessarily. I mean, what if theyâre just tying everything up with a pretty bow to make sure that itâs all sorted today? With both Lucy and Leah speaking, and then our testimonials, along with Ridley and Alexia, and your injury report, surely thatâs enough to have Kristie locked up for the foreseeable future.â
Kristie. She never wanted to hear that name again. Lucy had no intention of letting her be in the same room as her, and Leah had offered to go as a character witness, knowing that her fame would make them realise how important of a case it was.
Jordan reached out and squeezed her hand. âIt should be an open and shut case. Especially seeing as you didnât want to go for the harshest punishment.â
âI just didnât want her doing it to anyone else. She needed to know it was wrong.â
âSome jail time and community service will definitely get the message across.â
âAnd restraining ordersâŚâ she murmured. That had been Lucyâs non-negotiable.
âLeah there is going to throw a spanner in the works too. Her platform is massive. No one in their right mind will want her publicly speaking about how Kristie got away with her friends being stalked and then assaulted to the point of this.â
She gestured to YFN sitting up in the hospital bed.
She squeezed her hand. âThanks for being here, Dory.â
Jordanâs little smile took over from her serious, friend look. âOf course, mate. I wouldnât want to be anywhere else.â
A few minutes later Lucyâs doctor returned, or rather, her doctor too.
âIâm sorry for the delay,â he said as he stood next to her bed with a gentle smile. He was one of those men that you were always comfortable around. The benevolent type. âThe scans are good - better than I expected given your⌠history.â Another smile, though this one was sympathetic. âWould you like the good news or the very good news first?â
She felt herself let go of tension she didnât realise sheâd been holding.
âSave the best for last.â
âVery well.â He put the scans up on the light box and pointed to her collarbone. âThe second surgery went well. The screws are holding, though Iâm afraid I need you in the sling to keep it immobile for the next 4 weeks or so..â
She sighed, though knew it was the case. Her Christmas was officially in a sling.
He continued. âUnless thereâs an incident, or any issues with pain, I wonât need to give it a check-up until just prior to Christmas, and then Iâm hoping to have you out of it for the new year.â
She smiled and nodded. âWell, thatâs positiveâŚâ
He moved onto the next two x-rays. âYour forearm and wrist are healing well, though Iâm afraid the cast will need to remain on for the next 6-8 weeks. Weâll give you a check-up when we get rid of the sling. Your jaw is also healing nicely, I know the bruising has been persistent, but expect it to be gone in the next week or so..â
âI can handle the cast,â she chuckled. âMy shoulder is just in need of a good movement.â
Sheâd just wanted to swing her arm around, to roll her shoulder, instead of having it stuck where it was. It was a level of frustrating that bordered on pain.
âThere are a few small massages that you can do to help, though youâll need to be quite gentle with them, and careful not to shift your collarbone too much.â
He handed her a sheet with the exercises.
âLucy can help with these. Any issues, give me a call.â
âThank you,â she replied, gratefully. She was always grateful at the opportunity for Lucy to touch her more.
Jordan took the sheet interestedly and looked over it.
âNow onto your ribs. Theyâve been thrown around a bitâŚâ he looked at her with eyebrows raised and she blushed, knowing full well that sheâd been abusing them a little too much with Lucy. ââŚwhich I understand.â He was politely giving her an out. âYou already had several past injuries and youâre very limited with your movements given your state, and so itâs understandable that your ribs are catching the brunt of it. Though, youâll need to be more mindful. No overexertion. No twisting yourself. NoâŚexcessive movements.â
To his credit, he did seem entertained by it.
âI think you should call Lucy and tell her that directly,â Jordan joked.
YFNâs mouth dropped open, though he and Jordan shared a good chuckle at her expense. She made a mental note to not tell Lucy so that she didnât lose any part of her sex life.
âNow onto your kneecapâŚâ
She braced herself for bad news, but how could it be, when heâd said the worst of it first?
âIt was only ever a minor crack, however I wanted you to keep your full weight off of it as you canât exactly use crutches. Iâm going to keep the brace on, however you can walk on it again.â
She grinned â her first thought being that Lucy was going to be so happy. She could picture her face lighting up now.
âNow donât overdo it. Donât put all of your weight onto it at once. Place your foot on the ground and ease your weight onto it. Itâs a slow process, but you need to build that habit up so youâre not overdoing it. The brace will be on for another few weeks, and Iâm hoping to take it off just before Christmas.â
No brace for Christmas. Lucy was going to be thrilled.
âHopingâŚâ he said again, making sure she understood that it was only a possibility at this stage. ââŚand you can take the brace off for showers now, just donât put all of your weight on it in the shower.â
No more garbage bags. She nodded. âThanks, Doc.â
They finished up with him, getting her scripts for medication and some more information. Lucy, ever the anatomy fanatic, would want to know every detail possible. Especially because it was her.
She walked slowly to the car, relished the feel of being able to use her legs like legs again. She was officially The Little Mermaid.
She groaned the relief for her hips and lower back as she did so, knowing this would take a lot of strain from Lucy needing to carry her around.
She slipped into Miles, Lucyâs car, and Jordan slipped into the driverâs seat. The footballers had taken Leahâs Mercedes as it was lower to get into and Lucy hadnât wanted her dropping into the seat and struggling to get out.
It was later in the afternoon now, and she looked at the time, wondering why it was all taking so long.
âCelebration dinner?â Jordan asked.
âWhy do I feel like you all had this planned already?â
âMaybe. You know LucyâŚâ
âHas she messaged you?!â She looked over at Jordan who seemed to barely be able to see over the steering wheel. She gave a sympathetic smile. âNo, sorry. But the table is still booked, so maybe we should see if they make it? I would suggest Katie and Caitlin but theyâre not in town. Most of the girls are with their international squads. We can ask Alex but Jill is in Manchester. Thereâs a few otherâs in town.. LJ and Keira, maybe?â
âOh, thatâs an idea!â
Jordan gave them both a call. LJ wasnât available, however Keira and Georgia were. They met them at the Italian restaurant Lucy had booked and made a night of it. The girls joked about how theyâd be in trouble if they were caught eating carbs when they were in season, though YFN had convinced them that theyâd deserved it after their hard fought victory over the Netherlands. The more she got to know Keira, the more she got along with her. She opened up slowly, though at the end of the day, they both thought similarly, and had a similar sense of humour.
It was also one of the first times sheâd been close and in intimate conversation with Georgia since sheâd caught the first kiss between her and Lucy. They spoke about the game, Scotland, how much they needed to win by, Lumos and the interviews. The three footballers had a good catch up now that they all played for different teams, and they saw less of Jordan.
The two opted to skip dessert as theyâd apparently already been too bad, though once they saw Jordan and YFNâs desserts, they couldnât help but try a taste.
When their dinner was ending, she checked her phone and her stomach sank.
âStill nothing?â Jordan asked, seeing her reaction.
She gave a sigh. âNo. You?â
She shook her head.
âDoesnât usually take this long, surely?â Georgia asked. âWhat, are they hand delivering her to jail?â
âThere must be a good reasonâŚâ Keira comforted. âEither way, we have time to do the interview if you want?â
They were being efficient, with Keira offering at dinner to come over and do the couch interview that YFN had suggested was best to ease the âWonzeâ fanatics of the internet. She still didnât know Keira well, though she could see that sheâd offered partly because not only did she want to get it over and done with, as she hated interviews, but she knew YFN needed a distraction from the current legal situation that Lucy and Leah were tied up in. She called Bridget and Emily to see if they were available last minute for the interview. They were more than eager, as she knew they would be, though still offered them extra pay for the inconvenience.
After dinner, they made their way to Lucyâs and settled in, Bridget and Emily setting up for the interview while she ran through queries with Keira prior to it.
âDid you read the questions and prompts I sent..?â
She hadnât expected her to, as the interview wasnât supposed to take place until later in the month, however things seemed to be working this way for her for some reason.
Keira nodded, asking questions and YFN couldnât help but be impressed at her eye for detail.
Sheâd said that Jordan and Georgia didnât have to stay, but theyâd insisted, wanting to catch up on lost time.
The interview went for just over an hour, though it was exactly what sheâd wanted. Keira had not been tense at all, and she was proud of herself for creating such an environment. To be fair, she even felt like sheâd flirted with her a little, which had surprised the Australian. Sheâd never seen an interview with Keira so comfortable before. Hopefully that would suppress the âWonzeâ fanatics whoâd been sending her so much hate on social media.
Keira took photos for their interview, while she answered Georgiaâs questions about the content process. She had very little content outside of the Lionesses as she played at Bayern Munich and they werenât exactly known for their social media. They didnât have time for another interview that night as the girls had training the next day before flying out to Scotland, and needed to get rest.
They all left, though Jordan stayed with her. She looked at her watch as they walked out of the door. 8pm. She hadnât heard from Lucy since 7am.
She sighed, dropping her hand in defeat. Jordan gave her a cuddle. âTheyâll be home soon..â
She cuddled into her friend, allowing herself to relax when her phone buzzed. She jumped immediately and grimaced at the pain that shot through her body as she grabbed for her phone.
Joe callingâŚ
At this time of night?
âHey, Joe,â she answered, feeling awkward calling her that.
âHello, YFN. How are you?â Her voice sounded as soft and regally calm as ever. It was comforting to her.
âIâm doing well. Itâs late â is everything okay?â
âOh, yes. I was calling to check in on the hearing today. Did it go well?â
She wondered if sheâd used any of her influence to help the situation. Her voice suggested that perhaps she had, though just a little.
âLuce and Leah arenât home yet. Theyâve been gone for over 13 hours.â
âI see. Itâs not unusual, though. Iâd like an update when theyâre done, please. I need to make sure this is all wrapped up so that youâre safe.â
Seeing as you donât want the security team I offered, she could practically hear her saying. Catherine was worried about her, which made her feel loved. Sheâd never had that from a mother figure beyond her grandma. Her heart softened.
âThank youâŚâ she said, gratefully. âIâll let you know when I know. Also, I had a check up today. Everything is healing well, and I can now walk, albeit gently.â
âI read the report you sent through,â YFN could hear the smile in her voice. âI was very happy to read that. Hopefully you can be moving a bit more freely by the new year.â
âFingers crossed!â
She gave a light laugh. âMine certainly are. Now, I was thinking about the Gala event this week that Lucy and Alessia are doing this week. Weâre a bit on the back foot with everything since thereâs so much going on, however I was hoping that the timing will work out to have our own Lumos event this week, on Friday or Saturday perhaps. Do you think we could get any high profile players in that time?â
âHow many were you thinking?â
âTen maximum. I donât want the focus to be lost if there are too many.â
âWell, Lucy will be with me for a little before headed back to Barca. Most girls will be back with their teams by then. I think I can get Jordan Nobbs, Leah Williamson, potentially any players from the WSL, and also perhaps⌠perhapsâŚâ
âPerhaps?â
She pondered. âPerhaps⌠Alexia. Thatâs a big maybe, though.â
âAlexia would be the white whale, if we could get her on. Otherwise, it sounds great. Perhaps some other nationalities too, if you can?â
âCoaches too?â She asked, trying to think who would be available at a momentâs notice. âI could ask Sarina. Emma. I could get Caitlin for Australia, Katie for Ireland, Yui for Japan, Ashley for Canada, or similar if they're not available?â
âBrilliant. I do hate to drop this on you last minute, though I have been wanting to get it done before the rush prior to Christmas. If you could look through availability and give me a date and names, Iâll work on booking a location for Friday or Saturday so we can start promoting it.â
âConsider it done.â
âThank you, YFN. About tomorrow night, I have a location to meet. Iâm assuming Lucy will be coming also?â
âI think Leah and Jordan have a right to be there too.â
She could practically hear her nodding. âIâve sent the location and time to Mark. I have an aircraft departing at night for you. Iâll put you all on the manifest. You may need to clear it with the Lioness management.â
âLeah will handle thatâŚâ
âPerfect. Iâll send you the flight details.â
âCath-â She cut herself off. âAre you sure about this?â
âThereâs only so much hiding I can do. This is an unnecessary evil, unfortunately. Youâve been through too much already. I wonât have you fighting him too. Iâm hoping to finish this once and for all with him tomorrow night, though from then on, my intention is still to be the silent partner while you are the face of Lumos. Has anything changed for you in regards to that?â
The empathy in her voice had YFN feeling comfortable. Comfortable enough that she could have said no, and Catherine would have accepted it without question.
âNothing has changed on my end. Iâm just very eager to get us onto a schedule where Iâm not chasing my tail with interviews and events.â She chuckled. Catherine shared in her chuckle.
âOh, I know. Iâve been hoping the exact same. Itâs good to hear weâre on the same page, though. Weâll speak more tomorrow night. Until then â keep me posted on the hearing and anything you need at all, let me know.â
YFN and Jordan fell asleep on the couch, their feet overlapping under the blanket they shared as their heads were at opposite ends. She wasnât sure how long she slept for, however she was woken by a warm kiss to the cheek and Lucyâs deep, comforting voice. âIâm here, little one. Everythingâs okay.â
âLuce?â She mumbled, half asleep. She opened one eye, followed drearily by the other as she looked at her favourite person. Her expression was peaceful, which calmed the Australian.
She looked down at Jordan who was sitting up with Leah next to her, the two talking quietly. She looked back at Lucy.
âWhat happened?â
âItâs done, little one.â
She tried to prop herself up, and Lucy helped her, wrapping a strong arm around her waist to pull her up into a sitting position. âIt took that long?â
âThe incident happened in Spain, so we were delayed due to that, however someone pulled some strings for us.â Catherine. Lucy gave her a knowing look. âWithout her, this would have been dragged out for weeks.â
âItâs done?â
She nodded as she reached out to stroke the yellowing bruises on her jaw. âJail time for a period. Community service for the rest, as you didnât want her to be stuck in there for the maximum time. Restraining orders for life. She wonât be attending any games in the future. And she apologised. Itâs done.â
âSheâŚapologised?â
âMainly to me, but yes. She cried a lot.â
âThat must have been hardâŚâ
âYes and no. I donât like seeing someone upset, but she did hurt the person I love so⌠my empathy was not there for her. Iâm just happy itâs all over.â She leant forward and gave her a soft kiss on the temple. âWhat did you two get up to, love?â
âWe had dinner with Keira and Georgia,â Jordan said from across the couch.
Leah gave YFN a smile. She looked tired.
Lucy was caught off guard. âOh?â
âIt was great,â she reassured, putting her hand under the collar of her shirt, and on that strong collarbone of hers. âI did my couch interview with Keira after it.â
Lucy looked impressed, though like she had questions for when they were alone. She didnât blame her.
âAnd?â Jordan prompted.
âOh! And Lumos wants to host a public event with 10 female footballers in London this Friday or Saturday. Are you all free?â
âYou know I am,â Lucy murmured, leaning her head against hers.
âIâll be in town.â Leah answered.
âYou already know Iâm in.â Jordan agreed, looking at Leah. YFN hadnât realised until just then that it must have been a while since theyâd done something like that together in public.
âAnd I messaged Riddles, hoping to get Alexia if sheâs back in townâŚâ
âMmn. Iâm sure itâll all be perfect. Youâre good at the last minute organising,â Lucy teased.
She rolled her eyes. âAnd whose fault is that?â
She gave an innocent look. âI have no idea what youâre talking about. But I do wonder how the doctor went today? I have an email titled: âNo funny business.ââ
Jordan cackled. Actually cackled. YFN blushed, a little embarrassed and frustrated that she had to tell her. Lucy didnât understand. Bless her, she was incredibly smart, though a lot less quick for these types of situations.
âEverything is healing well apart from myâŚahâŚribs. Theyâve not been having the rest they should.â
âI believe he said theyâve been âthrown around a bitââŚâ Jordan offered.
Lucy clicked and gave a guilty look. Before she could speak, YFN jumped in, trying to distract her with ten different things to keep her mind away from limiting sex with her.
âBut everything else is healing well⌠hoping to be out of the sling by the new year and the knee brace by Christmas. Also, I can officially walk.â She gave a proud smile. âNo more looking for the wheelchair in Scotland, Luce. Iâll be the one-armed flamingo with the Australian flag.â

DC MEN AND THE FIRST DANCE.
aka my fav dc boys, their first dance songs at yâallâs wedding, and a lil blurb.
DICK GRAYSON has cried three separate times today, this dance officially making it four. Dean Martinâs âEverybody Loves Somebodyâ crackles through the speakers, causing your husband to smile again, before tearful kissing your forehead. The two of you sway in silence, letting the music speak for you. âI love you,â Dick breathes, âI love you infinitely.â
JASON TODD has been narrowly avoiding a literal breakdown all night, but this, he decides, is the icing on the cake. As âAt Last,â by Etta James begins, Jason tries his damndest to maintain his veneer of suave confidence, finally cracking when you place a kiss to his hand. As a few tears leave his eyes, he kisses you. He tastes of icing, love, and salt. His siblings and father are more of a mess than he is, as theyâve been sobbing and snotting all through the ceremony and reception.
BRUCE WAYNE, as stoic as he is, canât help but let a few tears escape his eyes as the two of you spin and sway to Nancy Wilsonâs âTonight May Have to Last Me All my Lifeâ. He opens his mouth to speak, but a choked sound leaves his throat as he rubs your wedding ring. His motherâs ring. Years later, he says the day of your union was absolutely perfect, but you know a part of him wishes Thomas and Martha were there to see it.
HAL JORDAN hums as he stares into your eyes, unblinking. âCanât believe Iâm your husband,â he sighs, tracing your jawline. âCanât believe Iâm youâre wife,â you say. Unforgettable, by Nat King Cole rings through the speakers as Hal groans, âAnd I was doing so well,â he smiles, tears sparkling in his eyes. ââS alright, love,â you choke, tears welling up in your eyes as well. âMe too.â
BARRY ALLEN had been smiling all night long, but he canât help the way his smile becomes watery when he hears the honeyed notes of Ella Fitzgeraldâs âIâve Got a Crush on Youâ. The two of you mouth the lyrics as Barry hums, thinking of the countless nights the two of you spent together, dancing in the moon-bathed kitchen you share. He kisses you, smiling from ear to ear.
CLARK KENT blinks, almost incredulous at the beauty before him. âKal,â you hum, âyouâre staring.â He nods, speechless, not even noticing the tears that begin to leak from his eyes as âAgain,â by Doris Day plays. Though there are eyes all over the both of you, you canât help but feel as if youâre in your own little world. As the song comes to an end, he squeezes your hand, saying all he wishes to say at the moment.
oh iâm finna cry this is so cuteâŚ.fuck

Sorry the conversation about Bug learning to swim with Leah and Jordan has just made me think of Dory
Jordan is just like: Just keep swimming, just keep swimming
Leah: Are you going to keep singing or...?
Jordan: It's calming her!
Leah: I think it's calming you more but okay...

This week in Adventures in Movie-Going with my grandma: we watched The Umbrellas of Cherbourg together, and she really loved it! I think she found it particularly poignant because she's finally going to divorce her husband who she married at 17 for love. She loves 1960s fashion, sad romances, and musicals, so. Obvi! Do you have any movie recs for a funny, sweet & stylish old lady who's seen most of the classics from '50-'99? (PS Singing in the Rain is one of her favorites) (PPS Her name is Olga)
so, this message is hitting me right in the heart a little bit because today is the anniversary of my own beloved grandmother passing, and i've been carrying her with me all day today... and i love you olga!!!! i love that you watched umbrellas with her!!! what a FILM, my god.
has she seen born to dance, the 1936 film with eleanor powell? i adore this one a lot. i also would consider these some underrated musical classics - the pajama game (my grandma's favorite, doris day!) and bells are ringing (i feel like not many have seen this one so wanted to give it some space here). you could even continue on the demy kick and show her the young girls of rochefort, which is VERY sweet and VERY stylish and a lot more upbeat than umbrellas!
other movies that are giving me big olga vibes: one way passage (sad romance!), the reckless moment (ditto), cactus flower (i feel like she may have seen this one but it's SO 60s and exactly the kind of thing a sweet and stylish grand lady would love). they all laughed from 1981 is a very breezy new york romantic comedy with a tinge of sadness that i think she would enjoy! if she likes country music and hasn't seen nashville, show her nashville! also the rita hayworth film down to earth is giving off big olga vibes to me -- i'll bet she's seen here comes mr. jordan but not this film, and there's a really charming tie-in to that film.
please give her all my love!!!!!!!!!!
#asks#also did i see you tell a beloved moot of mine that you saw all that jazz for the first time recently? this is super important to me đ

Here's my poster of my official version of my version for my DisneyElseWorld's Pixar's...
INSIDE OUT 2!
I saw the new Inside Out 2 trailer, and they made Anxiety, Ennui, Embarrassment, and Envy bad by betraying the old emotions. Lots of crazy stuff is about to happen! We don't know what's going on, lots of details are there too. But what would the ElseWorld version be like?
SO!
For my idea. I have 6 new emotions, one of my OC emotions I've created like, Courage, Surprise, Pride, Trust, Frustration, and Shy.
MAIN VILLAIN
I am using on of my oc villains, Spite, to be the main villain of the AU second movie.
OTHER CHARACTERS
Characters like Nia, the assistant of Spite, she runs the business with him but she tries to avoid him to help others. Bud, Courage's blood cell buddy, he doesn't speak but he's sweet, nervous, cute and got some attitude. And Brain, the big boss of Riley's mind, and the emotions need his help to stop Spite.
What New Places Would the Emotions Go To?
In this AU, far from HQ and Long Term Memory, instead of the back of the mind being empty, there is a huge mind-filled city called Mindtopia, aka, The City of Riley, where everything in the mind has everybody for Riley's Inner Workings in her mind. That also includes Headquarters. And guess what, they're not the only company, there's also banks, council buildings, restaurants, malls, houses, apartments, and everything for Mind Workers after they work at Long Term Memory. And The Mind Councilman, Chairman, is the Mind Prime Minister.
Returning Cast like...
Amy Poehler as Joy, Lewis Black as Anger, Bill Hader as Fear (YES! I'm bringing Bill Hader back! He's so much funnier then I expected), But here comes my official recast for Disgust and Sadness.
Selena Gomez (the Hotel Transylvania films, Disney Channel's Wizards of Waverly Place, and Hulu's Only Murders In The Building) as Disgust, and Melissa McCarthy (Spy, The Boss, and The Hangover Part 3) as Sadness,
Kensington Tallman as Riley, Diane Lane as Mrs. Andersen, and Kyle MacLachlan as Mr. Andersen.
With All-Star Cast like...
Jason Segel (The Muppets, and, the Despicable Me films) as the new outside leader emotion known as Courage, Charlie Day (the LEGO Movie, and Pacific Rim films, and The Super Mario Bros Movie) as Surprise, Kate McKinnon (Ferdinand, DC League Of Super Pets, and Saturday Night Live) as Frustration,
Zach Woods (The Office, & The LEGO Ninjago Movie) as Trust, Randall Park (the Ant-Man, and Aquaman films) as Pride, Tituss Burgess (Central Park, Angry Birds Movie, and Spellbound) as Shy, Wendi McLendon Covey (Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween, and Elemental) as the sweet and huge, Mother Esteem, Eugene Levy (Finding Dory, and Schitt's Creek) as the mind algorithm boss of Riley Andersen's Mind/City of Riley known as Brain, Nathan Fillion (DCU's Superman, Monsters University, and Cars 3) as the very evil and hilariously charming, but pretty badly whiny, Spite,
Ilana Glazer (Netflix's Green Eggs and Ham) as Spite's sarcastic female assistant, Nia, Dan Fogler (the Fantastic Beasts films, and The Walking Dead) as Mind Councilman Chairman, Ken Jeong (Transformers: Dark of The Moon, The Hangover, and Scoob!) as Yes Man, Alan Tudyk (the Moana, Frozen, Zootopia, and Wreck-it Ralph films) as Mind Gate Guard Jimmy, Peter Sohn (Ratatouille, Monsters University, and The Good Dinosaur) as the emotions new best blood cell companion named Bud, Stephen Root (Barry, King of the Hill, and Finding Nemo) as Doc Stem,
Yvette Nicole Brown (Disenchanted, and Avengers: Endgame) as Riley's middle school P.E. coach, Mrs. Roberts, Brady Noon (Good Boys, The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers, and Tales of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) as Jordan, Haley Tju (Amphibia, and Big Hero 6: The Series) as Kelli, Raymond Ochoa (The Good Dinosaur) as Riley's bully, Francis, Josh Peck (Drake & Josh, and Drillbit Taylor) as Francis' bully friend Lars, Bruce Campbell (the Evil Dead, and Spider-Man films, and Sky High) as Dale Daley, Chris Parnell (Archer, and Saturday Night Live) as Geoff James,
Bobby Moynihan (Hoppers, and IF) and Paula Poundstone (Home Movies) as The Forgetters, Paula Pell (Sisters, and Netflix's Big Mouth) as Mom's Anger, Flea (The Wild Thornberries) as Mind Cop Jake, Carlos Alazraqui (Fairly OddParents) as Dad's Anger, Dave Goelz and Frank Oz (the Muppets films and Sesame Street) as Mind Cop Frank & Mind Cop Dave, John Ratzenberger (the Toy Story and Cars films) as Fritz, and The Lonely Island (Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone, and Andy Samberg) (Hot Rod, and Chip & Dale: Rescue Rangers) as Imaginary Cupid Singers.

ÂĄOs traemos una pequeĂąa novedad!
Como ya no queda mucho para completar la informaciĂłn relativa a la ambientaciĂłn del foro, queremos avisar a todos los que nos siguen que la apertura de las reservas estĂĄ muy prĂłxima. Antes de ir a la fecha, queremos hacer un adelanto de lo que se subirĂĄ entre hoy y maĂąana:
Pactos, vĂnculos y tĂŠcnicas malditas
Pliegues y sellos
Glosario
Posteriormente, como nos han pedido, tambiĂŠn subiremos ejemplos de tĂŠcnicas malditas que se han empleado en el manga de Jujutsu Kaisen y buscaremos tambiĂŠn algĂşn ejemplo de los demonios que aparecen en Chainsaw Man, por si os sirve de guĂa e inspiraciĂłn.
FECHA DE RESERVAS
Las reservas podrĂĄn hacerse maĂąana dĂa 16 de abril hasta el dĂa de la apertura, aĂşn por anunciar. Dejaremos hasta las Ăşltimas dos horas, en caso de que alguien necesite realizar algĂşn cambio o por si hay algĂşn rezagado. El horario de apertura serĂĄ el siguiente:
20:00 en EspaĂąa (hora peninsular)
13:00 en MĂŠxico, PerĂş y Colombia
15:00 en Chile, Argentina y Venezuela
NORMATIVA DE RESERVAS
Antes de reservar, pedimos que por favor tengĂĄis en cuenta la siguiente normativa, porque si algo se sale de ella la reserva no tendrĂĄ validez.
Pondremos un anuncio previo a la apertura de reservas. Hasta que ese anuncio no estĂŠ colgado, no podrĂĄn mandarse ningĂşn tipo de reserva.
Se atenderĂĄn por orden de llegada. No sabemos si vamos a estar saturados o si el flujo de gente serĂĄ mĂĄs llevadero, pero intentaremos dar notificaciĂłn del listado lo mĂĄs pronto posible.
Ănicamente puede reservarse PB, porque no hay cupos de ningĂşn tipo para oficios, tĂŠcnicas y derivados.
Pueden reservarse hasta 2 PBs para uso propio. No se permiten reservas para bĂşsquedas.
El PB deberĂĄ de ser real y el personaje no podrĂĄ contar con mĂĄs o menos de 5 aĂąos de los que el PB tenga en la realidad.
Las reservas se mantendrĂĄn durante 7 dĂas desde la apertura del foro, tiempo que creemos suficiente para haber creado los personajes. En caso de que alguien necesite algo de tiempo extra, se puede poner en contacto con nosotros.

This is our Monthly Activity Check (October) !!
Please note that we will no longer be conducting monthly interest checks. As per our new rules going forward, players must be active at least twice per month on 2 separate weeks on all characters, and must interact with at least 2 players per character.
How is this activity check conducted?
Mod Gemma has combed through each character blog and made a note of when each character was active and with whom. RED warnings mean that no activity was made during the month. ORANGE warnings mean that there was activity, but it doesn't meet one of the above rules. GREEN means that you're in the clear and were seen to be active and interacting with multiple players. I am keeping note that those with more characters may fall behind on activity on some characters from time to time. This is our first activity check and I may be more lenient in future, but this is really just to make everyone aware of what I'm expecting going forward. Characters in the RED have 1 week to become active or they will be re-opened. If there is an issue, please speak to me: you can ask for a hiatus if you need one!

hi again! How do you think Lora Alan and Jordan would actually react to Flynn telling them about the digital world? How long for each of them to realize heâs NOT joking!? I also feel like itâd take Alan a life or death situation to get him in front of Loras laser or heâd get in front of it out of spite so Flynn would shut up no in between
Hey! Sorry Iâm answering this late.
Lora-
I think sheâd be amused at first, roll her eyes and think heâs just being dramatic about how his new game idea came to him. She thinks this whole story sprouted from thinking the name âTronâ is cool. Then slowly as he explains what happened and what heâs planning probably horror. That lasers her lifeâs work and the fact he got shot with it randomly?! Forget the fact he lived that puts into question a lot of safety precaution they had in place.
ďżźSheâs also Anti-grid!! I know a lot of people tend to have everyone just hunky dory with his idea but, honestly sheâd be anti interventionist. People werenât meant to be inside like thatâ and with the laser the idea was eventual transport- not extended exposure.
Alan-
Probably would also think heâs joking and probably making fun of him. Slowly heâd start to realize heâs being honest, Alan would be a mix of fascinated and concerned. The fact Flynn isnât potentially radioactive is insane to him. I think heâd believe a bit quicker, Flynn has this sort of magic way about him that works people onto his side- at least with Alan.
Logically heâd be Anti-grid but the curiosity gets the better of him, heâd be more of âthe man in the chairâ if anything. Fail safe , safety precautions etc. program life! Heâd be all over the idea, excited to find out what itâs like but not in support of making oneâs own world.

((**This is now my largest chapter at 7.5k. Enjoy!**))
YFN had instantly fallen asleep in her seat on the plane and woke to the jolt of the landing gear absorbing the impact on touchdown. She shook her fatigue away and took her phone off flight mode. 11:15am UK time. She gave a sigh of relief that the flight had been quicker than usual. She knew sheâd been cutting it close with the flight time and instead of Ruby picking her up as planned, sheâd told her to go to the stadium instead so she could get an Uber. It worked out well, because it meant she had time to speak to Jordan without feeling rude talking in front of Ruby.
She collected her bags and timed the Uber well, hopping in immediately as she exited the building. The stadium was thirty minutes from the airport so sheâd be arriving just at kick off. She wasn't too concerned, though. Bridget and Emily were also in Manchester for a 1300 game between Man City and Brighton and were getting a bit more experience up onsite with Ruby at her game. She was lucky to have such good workmates.
She slid into the cab with a polite hello and found the only contact with a fish in it.
âHey chicken! How was Barcelona?â
âOh my god, Dory, it was amazing. Absolutely amazing. But Iâm dead on my feet.â
Jordan laughed. âIâm guessing Lucy didnât let you sleep much?â
âDonât be cheeky. But you are correct.â
âHow many hours are you running on?â
She counted. âI had two hours sleep on the plane soâŚabout five hours?â
âWhat?!â
âI thinkâŚI remember we had a âmidnight snackâ but that was about 4am soâŚâ
âYouâre unbelievable. Priorities, right?â
YFN chuckled. âI have no regrets beyond the struggle to walk-â
âOh god! I donât want to hear it.â
They both laughed together.
âHow are you? Tell me everything.â
Jordan hummed and then proceeded to tell YFN about her dreams and the flowers and note that morning.
âWhy didnât you lead with that?!â
âI don't know. Good news before bad?â
âYou think the flowers and note are bad news?â
âI donât know. My headâs all over the place from the dreams. They were good and bad, but itâs just wrecked me emotionally.â
âI understand thatâŚitâs not great for game day. Are you on your way there now?â
âYeah, Iâm on the bus. We have another hour and a half to go.â
âWell, you canât resolve these emotions before the game because that would be a miracle. So how about you put a movie on and distract yourself? Donât sleep, you wonât be able to.
âYeah, I think Iâll do that to be fairâŚâ
âPerfect. Have you messaged her?â
âNo. I canât do that today. Trying not to mess with my head before the game.â
âThatâs all good, I was going to suggest maybe not responding until after the game.â
âYouâre doing two games today, arenât you?â
YFNâs mouth almost dropped open. âYou have no idea how proud I am that you remembered that? I told you a while ago...â
âOh, sorry, I should probably keep up my forgetfulness, right? Who are you again?â
YFN laughed. âI love forgetful Dory. Sheâs my favourite. Along with cuddly Dory. Football Dory thoughâŚjeez sheâs terrifying.â
âI definitely will be today.â
âGet those emotions out, girl! Just donât hurt anyone or get red carded please.â
âNo promises.â
âAs for your question, yep. I have the 1200 Man United versus West Ham game at Leigh and then the 1845 Arsenal versus Leicester game at King Power.â
âOh that's right! KyraâŚâ
YFN had obviously told Jordan about Kyra. They both thought it was cute.
âYes maâam.â
âOur bus will drop us back at Villa Park about 7pm tonightâŚI can drive and meet you there?â
YFN could tell that Jordan needed comfort, and most of her friends were in London. She did the timing math in her head.
âYouâd arrive about 8pm tonight with the trafficâŚhow about you get a lift with my guy, Matt? Heâs relocating to my game and then driving me back to Birmingham after itâs done.â
âOh, yeah! That works out brilliant, that does. God, youâre so good at this logistics stuff. I just kick a ball around.â
YFN had a giggle at the visual image and messaged Matt. âAnd you look great doing it. Plus, you do more than that and you know it.â
âYeah, yeah.â
YFN bit her lip as she thought a little. Jordan needed some love, and she knew just what to do. âWhat do you think about us asking Katie and Caitlin to stay the night? Weâll all finish up around 9pm in Leicester so theyâll have overnight accommodation. If I message them then theyâll have time for the team to cancel their room. They can come home with us.â
âOhhh I didnât think of that! See, this is why youâre the best.â
YFN grinned at the sound of genuine happiness in Jordanâs voice. She knew she missed them a lot.
She looked up and could see the stadium approaching in the distance. âIâm excited! Okay, Iâm almost at the stadium. Iâll message the group.â
âOkay, love you!â
âLove you more. Iâm so excited to see you tonight! Have a good game today, please. Smash it.â
They hung up happy and she opened a message from Matt that replied with an excited yes. Being a Villa supporter meant his dream just came true. YFN wondered how the car ride with them would be to Leicester and couldnât help but be amused.
YFN then put a message in their little four-way group. Caitlin was usually the first to respond whether it be message or Instagram, and today was no exception. Sheâd answered an unequivocal yes for the both of them before sheâd even stepped foot into the stadium.
The national anthems were playing just as she arrived and met up with her workmates. Bridget was running the boundary line, excitedly videoing the singing while Emily and Ruby were taking photos.
âHey, Em.â
âYFN! Hi!â She gushed, wearing her purple and yellow Lumos hoodie. YFN was wearing Lucyâs hoodie so she opted for a beanie instead. âHow was your flight?â
âI slept the entire trip,â she admitted with a chuckle.
Emily snapped a few shots of the starting line-ups.
âHow are you and Bridget?â
âOh, great! Yeah, weâre excited to be staying in Manchester tonight. Because we all have tomorrow off, we have plans to sight see and visit some family.â
They chatted for a little longer when YFN recognised the photographer from the last game sheâd been to. The one who followed her home. She pretended to not notice him as she kept speaking to Emily and then made her way around the field to get a few good videos and say hi to Ruby and Bridget also. Bridget was running a mile a minute as she usually did, and Ruby mentioned that she had a date with Matt the next day. Ruby also ran a mile a minute, just with her mouth rather than her legs like Bridget. The whistle blew.
âOh are those two already leaving already?â She asked rhetorically as Bridget and Emily waved on the way out. âAw I didnât say bye! Anyways, Matt said heâd take me on a date but I donât know where-â she snapped a few photos and then cringed at the tackle sheâd just captured, â-and I know itâs going to be amazing because weâve been talking for a while now andâŚwell not a while but since we all met and we were first partnered up-â she jogged further up the field to take another and came back when she was satisfied, â-and weâve both been talking about supervising this next group of people coming in and weâre so excited for them to join us-â she took photos while YFN pulled her phone out to get a good Instagram video of Man Unitedâs goal as they were both standing just a few metres from the West Ham goal. Goal number one, just three minutes in. YFN uploaded the video straight to their social media with an update on the score, â-and I just think itâs going to be amazing to have so many people with us. Is that guy staring at us?â
YFN turned to the photographer whoâd been following her around the boundary, more focussed on her than the game.
âYeahâŚjust ignore him. He wonât hurt us.â She said, repeating what Catherine had said to her. Phone still on video mode in her hand, she pressed record but before she could lift her arm up to video him, they were interrupted.
âNow, now, physical violence isnât my thing.â The voice teased from behind them.
YFN didnât even have to turn, but she did out of polite habit as Mark stepped next to her, his eyes focussed on the game. She kept her phone on record and down near her body, but angling the mic towards him.
âMark.â
âYFN. I hear you had a lovely trip up to Edinburgh to meet yourâŚcontroversial leader.â
Ruby frowned, not understanding.
âHeâs just teasing,â she assured. âCould you give us a minute?â
Ruby nodded and headed back up the field.
âSo none of them know then?â
âWhat could you possibly be referring to, Mark?â
âJoanne.â He almost hissed. âThat heartless woman.â
âI have no idea what youâre talking about.â
âWell let me be clear, then. I know your boss. She took something from me, so Iâm going to tear her whole fucking business down.â
âWhich business would that be?â
âThe only one not protected by a board. Lumos. Her baby that sheâs trying so desperately to hide. And you know exactly how Iâm going to start?â
âBy getting a photographer to follow me?â
He gave a grin that sent shivers down her spine. âSomething along those lines.â
He handed her a large yellow envelope. Against her better judgement, she took it and looked inside. She found several printed photos of herself and Lucy kissing at the airport. The photos werenât the best quality, they looked like theyâd been taken on a phone, but stillâŚit was disturbing.
She turned her attention back to the game as if she were unbothered. âCongratulations. You gave me photos of my girlfriend and I. You do realise that we are public? We have nothing to hide.â
âYou donât think that someone in your position dating one of the most famous footballers of all time is a conflict of interest? Let me give you some adviceâŚpeople will care. Whoever Joanne has investing in her company will. And this is just the start. Iâll get more and more dirt on not just you, but your workmates also. Iâll drag you all into the fucking ground.â
She sharply breathed in. âYou want to ruin a good thing for a little rivalry?â
âA good thing?â He scoffed. âNobody wants to watch women play. Look around you. The stands are only filled with friends and family. As for everyone who works at LumosâŚâ He shrugged. âCollateral.â
YFN let herself look at him. He was determined and deadly serious.
âSee that photographer? Get used to seeing him around. As for JoeâŚtell her Iâm going to tear down her company before it even begins.â
It was a dominant display by Manchester United who ended up winning 5-0 with five different goal scorers. YFN felt for West Ham who sheâd grown a soft spot for since her visit, and especially felt empathetic for their Captain, Mackenzie Arnold, a fellow Australian, as she was the goalkeeper. She couldnât imagine how hard it must have been mentally after a game like that. Youâd feel like it was all your fault while having to be the one to pull the team together.
A few of the players wandered over to her after the match, one being Mackenzie. She gave her a hug and surprisingly agreed to an interview. She interviewed her alongside Mary Earps, letting the two talk business. Mary didnât exactly have a quiet game, sheâd had shots that sheâd saved and they both bantered about that, with YFN steering the questions when and where she wanted. The fact that they both pointed out the brilliance in several different moments of each teams and gushed over not just their team but the opposite was the exact reason sheâd fallen in love with womenâs football. After those two, she interviewed Kirsty Smith and Riko Ueki with Ella Toone and Lucia Garcia. The dynamics of who she put together were interesting and got the results she wanted. She felt like she was Graham Norton putting interesting guests on and leading them here and there with questions, making sure they each felt acknowledged and appreciated for their time and their skill on the pitch.
They finished up around 2:30pm and stopped for a late lunch and some quick editing and posts before they started their two-and-a-half-hour drive to Leicester for their next game. It was only early evening, and YFN could already feel herself getting tired.
As they got into the car, Ruby noted that and told her to get some sleep. She had no idea that Ruby could be quiet for long enough and was pleasantly surprised.
Just before she went to sleep, she sent the video recording of Markâs voice to Catherine who she knew was busy with few royal duties, and then she fell asleep just after she put her phone on charge.
YFN woke to the loud sound of her phone ringing and she jumped, her face feeling half numb from the window. The car was stopped and she looked outside to Ruby whoâd noticed her wake and gave her a thumbs up from the fuel bowser. She gave one back and answered the phone without checking the caller ID.
âYFN! Are you okay?!â
She recognised the voice immediately. âCath- I mean. Joe? Wow, you really did a great job of sounding not yourself before we met.â
Catherine gave a light chuckle. âOne of my secret talents. I listened to your video. Did he threaten you?â
âNot physically, just what you heard on the video.â
âHeâs absolutely insistent and much more of a pain than Iâd expected.â She sounded annoyed and that was amusing to YFN as she was always painted as the perfect Princess. âIâm so sorry. I spoke to Joe and even she is surprised. He will not hurt you. If you feel unsafe at all, I will hire security.â
âThatâs okay, I think weâre okay for now. He seems to be all bark at the moment..â
âHe is, I assure you. Also, there is no conflict of interest here. Iâm aware of your relationship. We are not even covering her games yet and when we do, it is absolutely not a conflict of interest. The man doesnât know what heâs talking about. I know you, I chose you for a reason and your judgement, and your actions wonât be compromised by your relationship. Not only that, but thereâs nothing in which to base these allegations on just yet. I understand the implications that may occur with you interviewing her and potentially being seen as biased, but Iâve seen your work, Iâve seen you interview friends and colleagues without that bias. I chose carefully.â She sighed. âMy plan was for us to build your reputation in the field so high it would surpass any of these allegations before they even occurred.â
âI appreciate the support, and I promise that anything to do with Lucy or her team against another team will not be an issue. I want everyone and every team to be represented, regardless of if theyâre against her or not.â
âPerfect. Weâll cross that bridge when we come to it, I think. In the meantime, you donât need to hide your relationship. Iâd never ask or expect that of you.â
âThank youâŚalso Iâm assuming part of your security check on us is that you look for anything controversial which may be used against us like this?â
She hesitated. âYes. I donât like it, but we need to protect ourselves and the business from any potential threatsâŚâ
âI understand, and I agree.â Ruby hopped back into the car then with a grin. âYou have my supportâŚJoe.â
Catherine took the hint. âHe wonât find anything controversial on the other employees because there is nothing. We just need to stay a tight knit group and continue our jobs.â
âCopy that, will do. Would you like me to send out a group memo about him?â
Ruby started to drive again.
âYes, absolutely. If you donât mind, Iâll write it and you send it?â
âPerfect, that saves me the work.â
âLastly, the office wonât be ready tomorrow.â
âOh?â Her interest peaked at that. She could be with Lucy on her day off. Jonatan had been giving her more days off with her knee. She only had to train four days this week, Tuesday to Friday.
âItâs all related. Mark somehow managed to talk to the local councilâŚanyways Iâm sorting it. Itâll be ready by Wednesday, I promise you.â
âOkay. Thatâs perfectly fine. Iâll meet up with the real estate agent and then the original ten of us will settle in and prep for the new group to arrive.â
âI thought it would be best to start the new group on Thursday instead because of the timing with the office date moving, but I wanted to check with you first to make sure you werenât losing too much preparation time with them for the next round?â
YFN thought about it a little. Their first game was Saturday, and it was the only one. Catherine had gotten permission for ten employees at that game which allowed her to send two original crew with a full new crew to train. âI think Thursday will work. Itâll give us two full days to cover everything which is enough, and for eight of them, theyâll get experience on Saturday at Stamford Bridge. If I feel we need more, Iâll organise Saturday with the others not at the game to prep more.â
âAgreed! We think very much alike, you know.â It was a compliment that made her blush.
Catherine asked if she had any more questions before the call ended. She wasnât surprised it wasnât a long conversation, as she knew sheâd been busy all day with regular duties and then Markâs drama in the background. She couldnât help but think about the possibility of booking a flight to Barcelona to spend the next two days with Lucy, as she knew she had the next day off. She could explore Barcelona with Narla and do a bit of work on the Tuesday while Lucy was training⌠She bit her lip and shook her head. Jordan needed her. Jordan was her priority. Thinking of, she looked up Jordanâs game which was almost finished. It had been fairly even all game and Jordan had been subbed on in the 65th minute, having a goal attempt in the 66th minute. YFN smiled as she watched Jordan running around, looking frustrated which was so opposite to her everyday self. Aston Villa were up 1-0 and she watched while Ruby listened to the end of the game. Multiple fouls were made by both teams. Aston Villa scored a second goal. A foul by Jordan at the 90 minute mark. And then it was over. Jordan had only played 30 minutes, but sheâd made an impact. YFN sent Jordan a message saying how proud she was of her.
They arrived in Leicester around 5:45pm and stopped at a local cafĂŠ for another snack and a drink before the game. Being too early at the stadium meant boredom. They made sure to arrive around 6:15pm and set their equipment up, capturing the players during warm up. The Leicester players exited first to warm up and a few came over to chat. Luck have it, Courtney was one of them. Australians tended to flock together outside of Australia, she realised. YFN asked if sheâd do an interview after the game and she agreed for the price of a hoodie. She liked Courtney and could see why Kyra did too. They were both cheeky.
âHey stranger.â
YFN turned to see Leahâs smile as she stepped next to her. She was alone and not in kit, not quite ready to play after her ACL.
âLeah!â She smiled, pulling her into a hug. She liked Leah, regardless of her issues with Jordan, and sheâd previously spoken to Jordan about their little growing friendship. She was okay with it, of course, otherwise YFN wouldnât have been so forward. âHow are you?â
âOh mate, desperate to get onto that field, Iâm telling ya.â She looked longingly at the pitch and then back to YFN. âI watched your interviews. Theyâre great! I donât know why anyone hasnât interviewed like that before.â
âThe ones from last week?â
âYeah and this morning. I loved it, honestly. Iâll be happy to do interviews anytime with you, just let me know.â
âThatâs just given me an ideaâŚâ She hummed as she thought.
âTaking me up on the offer already?â She laughed.
âActually Iâve been trying to work out different segments and ideas that would make us stand out from other companiesâŚ.youâre not playing today. There are always players who are not playing but watching their teams. So it might be a good idea to get players willing to on the sidelines with us to interview and to film some of the snippets we upload with their own perspective and jokes and insight. Sort of like when youâre excitedly screaming motivation at the girls from the bench, but this time theyâd be in snippets for our social media. Itâll promote the team and show just how supportive all of the players are with each other. Plus, I think it'd be hilarious.â
âSort of like when they mic up the cricket players?â
âEXACTLY.â
âPut me in, coach. I love the sound of that. Plus, if it mucks up, you can just blame me.â
âYou are 100% my scapegoat if it goes bad.â She laughed. âYouâd be willing to today?â
She shrugged. âI have nothing else going on and Iâm used to the camera so why not.â
âPerfect! Yeah, oh thatâs so exciting-â She stopped and bit her lip as she thought of Jordan.
âWhat is it?â
âUmâŚmaybe not today? Maybe next game?â
The frustrating thing was that she didnât know yet if sheâd even be at Arsenalâs next game. It depended on the roster.
âYFN, just tell me.â
âSoâŚhmâŚhereâs the thingâŚâ
âPlease donât tell me this is about Jordan?â She asked, a little upset. âI was hoping that wouldnât affect our relationshipâŚâ
âIt wonât! Doryâs fine with us being friends. Itâs justâŚâ
âSpit it out, mate.â
âSheâs going to be here in under an hour.â
She swore Leah paled. She definitely froze. âOh.â
âYeahâŚso sheâll already be with me on the sidelines for company.â
âShe just finished a gameâŚâ she looked at her watch. ââŚso if sheâs coming here I guess itâs to talk about us?â
âLeahâŚâ
âShe told you about this morning?â
âYes.â
âOkay.â She groaned and ran her hand through her hair. âLook, I donât know your opinion on everything and I donât want to drag you into it all, but I promise you I just want the best for Jordan.â
âAnd the best for Jordan is you?â
Leah held her eye contact. âYes. JustâŚI know I donât have the right to ask but I will. Can you please maybe tell Jordan it wouldnât be such a bad thing to go with me this Friday night to the awards? I want to win her back, to be there for her but I canât without opportunity to actually be around her.â
âI wonât convince her to do something she doesnât want toâŚâ
âI wouldnât expect you to. JustâŚadvocate for me? You donât have to push it. JustâŚplease?â
âIâll have a talk to her,â she murmured.
âCHICKEN!â
The Arsenal players were headed out for their warm up and most were headed her way led by the Irishwoman who was being overtaken by a smiley, wavy Kyra.
âThank you, I really appreciate it. Also, I can still do that thing with you, I can be over the other side away from Jordan if she doesnât want me near.â
âThanks Leah, Iâll ask her about it when she gets here,â she replied with a smile.
âAsk who about what?!â Kyra asked as she landed on YFNâs back. YFNâs hands immediately caught her legs.
âOof. You do realise Iâm small, right?â
âYeah, but I knew youâd catch me. Whenâs Nobbs here?â
A few of the Arsenal girls looked awkward because Leah was there. âItâs okayâŚâ she assured them. âSheâll be here during the first half.â
âOkaaaaay.â
âOh, also Kyra invited herself tonight.â Caitlin said as she wrestled Kyra off of YFN so she and Katie could give her a hug.
âTonight? Where was our invite?â Beth asked.
YFN grinned sheepishly. âOur apartment isnât big enough for the entire Arsenal squadâŚâ
âIâm just joking, this one wants an early sleep anyways,â she said as she nudged Viv who looked unimpressed as usual.
âAw what a granny!â Kyra teased.
YFN couldnât help but laugh at the look on Vivâs face. Kyra giggled at her joke, ducking away from Caitlinâs motherly swat to the back of the head when a blue shirt appeared amongst the red and Kyra stilled.
âHeyâŚâ
âCourtney!â YFN replied, making sure she didnât feel left out. âHey!â
Courtney looked around, her eyes finding Kyra and then tearing them away pretending she hadnât looked at her. âJust letting you know Sam and Sophie are both good for the interview after the game. Do you know who itâll be with?â
âAwesome! Yeah, I was hoping Beth and Frida would be up for itâŚâ
âMe? Yes please! Not sure if Iâll be subbed on though,â Beth said eagerly.
Viv rolled her eyes. âSheâll be subbed on.â
âFRIDA!â Katie yelled.
âFRIDA!!â Beth yelled shortly after. Viv covered her ears and YFN chuckled at that.
The blonde spun around and jogged over. âYes?â
Frida Maanum was a Norwegian midfielder whoâd been with Arsenal since 2021. She was rarely chosen to be interviewed and softly spoken, so YFN thought itâd be great to involve her and help her confidence out with Beth who she could always rely on to talk if she didnât.
âWant to do an interview with me after the game? YFN wants to know.â
Frida looked over at YFN with a polite hello wave. âItâs going to be with Sam Tierney and Sophie Howard from Leicester. You can absolutely say no if you want.â
âYou want me?â She sounded surprised.
âOf course she wants ya, youâre amazinâ.â Katie said with a playful grab of her shoulder.
âOâŚokay. Yeah.â She smiled at YFN which made the Australian feel good for asking.
âAw, Iâll look after you mate! No need to be nervous!â Beth said loudly, extending an arm around her shoulder.
âSoâŚBeth and Frida,â YFN said to Courtney with a smile. âAnd then you and Kyra. Is that okay Kyra?â
âYeah thatâs cool.â Kyra said, suddenly quiet.
Courtneyâs eyes widened hearing that sheâd be interviewed with Kyra. YFN knew it was sneaky of her but it was an opportunity for Courtney to reject the idea before she surprised her with her ex. Not that they were ever public knowledge.
âOkay. Iâll see you after the game.â She said, directed straight at YFN but she knew it was more for Kyra from the tone of it.
Caitlin and YFN shared a sheepish look.
âCome on girls, Jonas is about to kick our asses. Letâs get warminâ up!â Katie ordered.
âIf you see me shouting from the sidelines, itâs because Iâm micâd up!â Leah warned them and received some amused looks in return.
âYouâd better not be focusinâ on my ass.â Katie teased.
Caitlin messed up Kyraâs hair. âYouâd better be focusing on this oneâs debut!â
They all jogged off and Leah turned to YFN.
âOkay boss, where do you want me?â
Jordan and Matt arrived just after 7pm, both with wide grins. Matt because heâd just spent a car ride with Jordan and Jordan because of YFN.
âDory! Come here!â She took her friend in a hug big enough to lift the footballer off the ground and a few Arsenal fans spotted Jordan and shouted their love for her as she did so.
âI missed you.â She mumbled into Lucyâs hoodie.
âItâs been a day. Needy, hm?â
âIâm always needy.â Jordan grumbled as she put her down.
âI missed you too.â YFN chuckled before turning to Matt. âYou look excited, mate.â
He was still grinning ear to ear and nodded.
âI think I tired him out with all the talking, to be fair.â
âIâm glad you two got on for the drive then. Matt, are you okay taking a few of us back to Birmingham tonight? If not, I can ask RubyâŚâ
âYes!â He almost shouted and then cleared his throat. âUm, yes, of course. Who..?
âUh Dory, Katie, Caitlin, Kyra and myself. Oh actually that wonât work⌠Ruby will have to take some of us anyways⌠maybe those three and Iâll ask Ruby if she can take Kyra and I.â
âDone.â
âHow was the game?â
âYeah, great. Noel and I got some great footage. A few of the girls were asking about interviews but I said weâd start next week.â
âNext week hopefully⌠and congrats on Aston Villaâs first win for the season?!â
âYeah!â Jordan grinned. âI wasnât on for long but I think I did alright.â
Loud noises from the crowd turned their attention to Leicester running towards goal. The ball was pushed out by Lotte for a corner.
âIâll go record that.â Matt said as he ran towards the goal up the side of the pitch. Jordan spotted Leah behind the goal then.
âLeahâŚ?â
âYou had to have expected her to be here,â YFN teased.
âWell yeah butâŚis she recording with a phone?â
âI have her micâd up for some footage. Trying something new out and sheâs helping.â
Jordan frowned but her eyes remained on her, mixed emotions in her eyes.
The crowd went wild as Leicester scored from their corner. Jordan swore. The game reset.
âShe really wants you to go with her on Friday..â
Jordanâs eyes flicked up to meet hers. âShe said that? What else did she say?â
âNothing you donât already know⌠that she wants the best for you, she wants to win you back, and she wants an opportunity to do so.â
Jordan groaned. âI canât. We rarely went to events together before. Now she wants to show me off to the world like Iâm hers when Iâm not?â
âI think she just wants a night with you, JordsâŚâ
âNope. No way. Unless she has another plus one and you come to chaperone us.â
YFN tilted her head. It wasnât football but⌠âI could get an invite?â
Jordan spun back around. âYou could?â
âMy boss can 100% get me a ticket. Now, did you mean it?â
âI meanâŚâ she looked over at Leah. âIf youâre going, I will.â
âAnd is this really what you want?â
Jordan got a little frustrated and pouted, trying to think. She was a bundle of confused emotions and the dreams wouldnât have helped. YFN put her arm around her and pulled her close.
âWhat do you think?â
âI think whatever this is, you need to resolve it. The best way to do that is communication. I think you should go. Sooner or later itâs going to be clear to you if you do or donât want to have her back in your life.â
Leah looked over at the pair, her and Jordan looking at each other. She nodded. âIâll go.â
âYouâre sure?â
âI think I wanted to, I just didnât want to admit it. Plus, youâll be there now so itâll be less awkward.â She grinned up at her.
YFN rolled her eyes and messaged âJoeâ. Just as she finished the message, Leicester was surging forward, forward, forward, and tucked away their second goal. Two goals in two minutes. A terrible start for Arsenal.
Jordan settled next to YFN, following her and her camera around, watching the game intently. She always wanted the best for Arsenal. They had more of a catch up in between photos that sheâd changed to as Matt was now doing the videography. YFN didnât miss Leah off and on staring across at them just as longingly as she stared at the pitch she missed. Jordan and YFN gradually moved closer to Leah through that first half, though Leah ducked away to the change rooms for half time with her girls.
While it was half time, Ruby, Matt and YFN on worked on their footage while they talked.
âNew office tomorrow?!â Matt asked excitedly.
âOhâŚno. Thatâs been delayed until Wednesday. Waiting on approvals. New group are now starting Thursday.â
âYouâre not going to Barcelona?â Jordan asked. âDoesnât Lucy have tomorrow off?â
âYou spoke with her?â
âYeah she messaged me. I assumed you suggested it,â she laughed, âsheâs terrible at messaging.â
âNot with me.â YFN winked. âAlso that was all her, I promise.â
Jordan rolled her eyes and nudged her almost off her chair. âShe misses you.â
âI was there this morningâŚâ
âYou miss her too.â
âDoryâŚâ She groaned.
âNo.â She said, putting her hand on the camera YFN was playing with which made her look up at her. Ruby and Matt shifted a little nervously as they could do nothing but listen. Jordan looked serious. âDonât you dare stay here tonight just for me. You barely get any time with her as it is. Sheâs my friend too, and I like to see her happy. And you happy. And youâre both never as happy as when youâre together.â YFN opened her mouth to argue but Jordan continued. âLet me live vicariously through you. Youâve already done enough, I have Katie and Caitlin and Kyra tonight! They need a bed.â
âYouâre kicking me out of our apartment?â YFN laughed.
âOnly if you can find a flight.â
She put her camera down and took Jordan into a warm, long hug, mumbling into her. âI love you, Dory. You know that? If weâre both single in five years, Iâm going to propose.â
Jordan laughed but they were both emotional. They just wanted the best for each other. âOkay but Blu will be ring-bearer.â
YFN laughed back into her and sat back, wiping tears away that she didnât even know had formed.
âYouâre putting Kyra on the couch?â
âIâll let her share my bed if she shuts up.â
âSheâs only small, sheâll be asleep before you all finish dinner. She tends to tire herself out fast, the little baby.â
âLittle baby,â Jordan mimicked adoringly. âNow look for flights. Iâll message Lucy.â
âOrâŚhow about we make it a surprise?â
âI love it! If she thinks youâre robbing her and knocks you out though, thatâs not on me.â
She did wonder what Lucyâs reaction would be. She found a flight from Birmingham to Barcelona at 11pm.
âWonât you need her to unlock the door?â
âI have keysâŚâ
âYou two are adorable.â
âI found an 11pm flight from BirminghamâŚâ
âDo you think youâll make that?!â Ruby asked. âIâm happy to take youâŚâ
âThatâŚsort of works out perfect because then the girls will all fit in Mattâs car. UmâŚthe game finishes at 8:30pm. Interviews until 9pm. Arrive at the airport around 10pm. Cutting it close for international but itâs a late flight and nobody will be there⌠I think we can make it?â She shrugged and booked the flight anyways. If she didnât make it, it wasnât meant to be.
Jordan grinned. âTell her to thank me when you get there.â
âHonestly, Iâm probably going to be passed out from fatigue all day and not even get the chance.â
Her phone buzzed. It was the flight confirmation.
âAre you sure?â She asked Jordan. Sure, sheâd already booked the flight, but it was cheap and she didnât care. She wanted Jordan to be okay.
Jordan grabbed her around the shoulders and smiled. âI promise itâs okay. Youâve really cheered me up today and helped with my Friday night decision. Plus, I have the girls tonight. We both know youâll just pass out anyways.â
âHow dare youâŚâ she laughed as the crowd began cheering loudly as the players re-entered the field. Ruby and Matt got to work. She stood to do the same when her phone buzzed again.
Joe: Done, they sent us through two invitations. Check your emails. Enjoy!
She grinned at the message and then at Jordan.
âWhat?â She handed her phone over and Jordan took it, an ecstatic look crossing her face. âYes mate!â
She took her phone back and pocketed it, holding her camera up to take photos of the players as they ran out.
âOne condition.â
âAnything.â
She jerked her head towards Leah who was wandering over to the pair. âYou tell her.â
Jordan groaned. âOkay but at the end of the night. She can sweat until then.â
YFN chuckled at that.
Starting the second half 2-0 against them meant Arsenal had to push deep. And they did. Arsenal kicked six goals in the second half. Their first came at a hesitation from Courtney which YFN felt terrible for. She was next to Leah when that happened who filmed a micâd up scream of joy from behind the Leicester goal as the shot went in. Slowly Jordan gravitated towards Leah more during the match, Leah managing to let her come at her own pace. The rest of the match was an absolute riot. Caitlin with an assist and a goal, Katie with an assist, and Kyra with multiple attempts at goal. She was shocked when she saw Courtney take Kyra down in the 83rd minute and wondered just how much of the history between them she didnât know. The game ended 2-6 Arsenal. A complete second half dominance that had Leah screaming with joy on the sidelines. It turned out to be the perfect day to test the micâd up segment, as she posted the live updates with videoâs Leah had taken of her yelling at the girls running towards goal and screaming, turning the camera around on herself to show her celebrating. It was great content.
Regardless of the outcome, the Leicester players still came over for their interviews. First she had Sam, Sophie, Frida and Beth who actually did get some game time and almost a first goal since sheâd come back from her ACL tear. Beth was the loudest, of course, and helped Frida to open up a bit. Frida had some back and forth with the Leicester girls talking about some of the plays including Samâs goal. Overall, she was happy with the results of the interview, and how much the girls had come out of their shells.
Next was her interview with Courtney and Kyra who seemed equally nervous next to each other. They knew each other well though. YFN waited to sense the overall mood before she allowed herself to go in with some cheeky questions about Courtneyâs tackle on Kyra, and Kyraâs debut. Her goal was to get them to start teasing each other, and it worked. At first, they didnât want to address each other, and after a few comments here and there, it was more them talking and throwing cheeky comments to each other, and YFN could almost sit back and enjoy watching the show. She had to steer it a few times of course, both were young, but the tension between the two was obvious. For the sake of the viewers and their privacy, YFN made sure to make it known to the camera that they were teammates and brought up that they went to school together as justification which started a whole other line of questioning about their start in football.
Only when she was satisfied that sheâd helped them break whatever awkwardness theyâd previously had, did she end the interview, but not before she told Kyra how proud she was of her on camera for her debut. Courtney gave her a proud shove for that too.
Being Australians, and women, they all hugged their goodbyes, Kyra whispering a thanks into her ear. As they were packing up, she could see them still chatting as Courtney was being called away. She gave Kyra her phone and she typed into it what YFN assumed was her number. Courtney gave an awkward wave, obviously not knowing whether a hug was appropriate, and ran into the change rooms. Kyra turned to YFN with a grin and a little fist pump. It was adorable.
She looked past Kyra to where Leah and Jordan were standing, Jordan telling her sheâd go on Friday. Leahâs expression flashed excitement before she contained it, and then it went a little shy as she pretended to be calm about it. They didnât speak for long, just enough for Jordan to agree before she wandered off with Leahâs eyes following her longingly. She watched for a while until she met YFNâs eye and blushed, having been caught. She mouthed a âthank youâ to which she gave a smile in return.
âWe really need to go.â Ruby stressed. She looked at the time and groaned. She only had time for quick goodbyes with everyone and a threat to Katie and Caitlin to not have sex in her bed. Katie seemed to enjoy the idea of the threat, to be honest, and that terrified her.
She rushed through security as quickly as possible and was the last person to board the flight, sweating and grateful sheâd made it, though cursing herself for having to stay longer just to make sure Kyra and Courtney were good. As with her morning flight, she passed out immediately and wished she had a chance for a shower before seeing Lucy. Instead of a shower, she tidied herself up in the bathroom at the Barcelona airport when she touched down, changing her clothes and washing away the day. She brushed her teeth and did her nightly makeup routine, ignoring some funny looks. She sure as hell wasnât going to let her skin suffer more than it already was with the change in weather between the UK and Spain.
Her Uber dropped her off at just before 3am and for some reason she was nervous, jiggling the keys Lucy had given her in her hands and playing with the little flags. At the front door she took a deep breath in and unlocked the door, entering as quietly as possible so as to not wake Lucy or Narla. She kicked off her shoes and left her suitcase in the entrance, not wanting to risk the wheels waking them. The smell as she walked into the house was home. Vanilla and bitter orange, and whatever the hell Lucy had been cooking for dinner. She swore she could even smell the big breakfast theyâd had that morning. She looked at the trophy Lucy still had out and smiled, putting her phone on charge next to it before tip-toeing her way into the bedroom.
Lucy was quite literally dead asleep. She was on her back facing YFNâs side of the bed, one hand touching the pillow YFN had been sleeping on the night before. She was beautiful. She loved seeing her so vulnerable and herself. Her dark hair was spread out over the pillow, another thing she loved. Lucy with her hair down. She clicked the door closed quietly and snuck around to her side of the bed, avoiding Lucyâs collection of shoes around the bed. She carefully laid down and when she touched Lucyâs hand to move it, she jerked awake, her head rising and her eyes opening.
âItâs just me.â She whispered and put a hand to her cheek, coming closer so Lucy could see her better without her glasses.
âWhat? What?â She was dazed and confused, her body tense.
âShhh. Shhhh.â She comforted and cuddled up to her, her head finding Lucyâs collarbone. âItâs okay, itâs just me. Iâm sorry for scaring you.â
âLittle one?â She asked, unbelieving. âYouâŚyouâre here.â
Her arms wrapped around YFN tighter than they ever had before, holding her close to her body, her own body softening into her. âIs everything okay?!â
âEverythingâs fine, Luce. I have the next two days off. Iâm all yours.â
Lucy groaned happily and kissed her wherever she could reach.
âSleep now, Luce.â
âYouâre home,â she whispered huskily with emotion, her voice already fading.
âIâm home.â

William Hurt in Altered States (Ken Russell, 1980)
Cast: William Hurt, Blair Brown, Bob Balaban, Charles Haid, Thaao Penghlis, Miguel Godreau, Dori Brenner, Peter Brandon, Charles White-Eagle, Drew Barrymore, Megan Jeffers. Screenplay: Paddy Chayefsky, based on his novel. Cinematography: Jordan Cronenweth. Production design: Richard Macdonald. Film editing: Eric Jenkins. Music: John Corigliano.Â
In theory, choosing Ken Russell to direct Paddy Chayefsky's screenplay based on his novel, an updating of Robert Louis Stevenson's 1886 novella Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde to the psychedelic era, had some potential. Russell is known for his flamboyant visuals and Chayefsky for his talky screenplays like the Oscar-winning Marty (Delbert Mann, 1955), The Hospital (Arthur Hiller, 1971), and Network (Sidney Lumet, 1976). Perhaps the visuals would moderate the verbosity, or vice versa. Unfortunately, Altered States wound up something of a mess -- a watchable mess, but still not a satisfying film. Chayefsky was so upset with the movie he took his name off the credits and substituted a pseudonym, Sidney Aaron. But the problem is inherent in the premise: that a potion can alter not only the mental state of the person who takes it but also the physical state -- that matter itself, the human body, can be changed by drinking a mixture of blood and hallucinogenic mushrooms. It's the stuff of fairy tales, not science. So when Dr. Jessup (William Hurt in his film debut), a respected physician researching the causes of schizophrenia, drinks the concoction, he reverts to his primordial self: a small, aggressive carnivorous simian. Good enough for a horror-movie setup, but not quite what Chayefsky had in mind when he wrote lines like these: "It is the Self, the individual mind, that contains immortality and ultimate truth.... Ever since we dispensed with God we've got nothing but ourselves to explain this meaningless horror of life." Chayefsky's existential conundrums go missing in a welter of special effects. And ultimately, the film collapses in bathos, with a plot resolution in which love conquers all after Jessup's experiments go calamitously awry. Hurt and Blair Brown as Jessup's wife do what they can with the material, giving controlled performances, but Russell, that connoisseur of excess, lets Charles Haid overplay his role as Dr. Parrish, the supposed skeptic about Jessup's research who seems like a nutcase himself. Â

Everybody say hello to Gwendolyn Zoharah Simmons: activist, teacher, and researcher. Born in 1944 Memphis, Gwendolyn was the first generation in her family to attend college (Spelman, 1962). She credits her grandmother, Rhonda Bell Robinson, with having instilled in her the family's history and its reckoning with slavery, her own hardships growing up as a sharecropper, and how Mississippi was objectively the "worst of the worst" for Black people. Gwendolyn solemnly promised her grandmother that she would never go to Mississippi. (And don't even get her started on the epic confrontations with teachers and school officials about the "inappropriateness of her hair." Boy, it's sure nice that that sort of racial dress-code pettiness isn't a thing anymore, huh?)
In the 1960's, inspired by several Spelman professors (to include Howard Zinn), Gwendolyn actively and enthusiastically became involved in the SNCC against her family's wishes. She participated in sit-ins and endured several arrests, ultimately jeopardizing her Spelman scholarship. She helped prepare curricula for Freedom Schools and coordinated mock voter registrations, working under Bob Moses (see Lesson 112 in this series) and alongside James Forman and her fellow Spelman alum Ruby Doris Smith-Robinson (see Lesson 66). Eventually she came into the orbit of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party, and ultimately found herself taking over as director of the Mississippi Summer Project in 1964 when its previous director, Lester McKinney, had been picked up by Laurel police. She herself was arrested in Jackson following a march; being held, beaten and tortured for 15 days in a makeshift prison constructed on the county fairgrounds.
Gwendolyn later moved briefly to New York, and then to Atlanta where she worked on Julian Bond's state campaign (see Lesson 72). She continued to work with the local chapter of the SNCC, authoring a controversial position paper on Black Power that argued against expelling its white members. Around this time Gwendolyn also (unsurprisingly) found herself on the FBI's notorious Counterintelligence Program (COINTELPRO) target list. Inspired by the speeches of Malcolm X, Gwendolyn joined Nation Of Islam in the late 1960's and changed her name to Zoharah (also taking her husband Michael Simmons' last name), and moved to Philadelphia. However her strong feminist principles contravened a number of NOI teachings, putting her at odds with the organization's stance on women as submissive helpmeets. Over the next 20 years she worked for the American Friends Service Committee, travelling to Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and (significantly) Palestine.
Gwendolyn retired from the University of Florida in 2019; conducting and leading research that explores Islamic feminism and the cultural impact of Sharia law on Muslim women. Today Simmons is senior lecturer emerita, continuing to travel and lecture on gender equality, and on many other issues affecting Black Americans, feminism, and social inequities. Her and Michael Simmons' daughter Aishah Shahidah Simmons, is herself an accomplished documentary filmmaker. (Teachers: Need some resources to engage your students this Black History Month? I'll send you a pile of these trading cards, no cost, no obligation. Just give me a mailing address and let me know how many students in your class. No strings attached, no censorship, no secret-relaying-of-names to Abbott or DeSantis or HuckaSanders.)
