Greaseball Headcanons

Okay so, @marastriker and I were talking last night about some GB headcanons. Not all were happy. But Im of the strong belief that no one starts out being the way they are and that their circumstances change and make them the way they are. So, playing off of that, here are some headcanons I've got about GB. (Some HCs may be familiar because they're also on this post here since they and I also were talking about other things and got to talking about potential kids and how GB & Dinah + Electra & CB would be as parents)

Anywho, I've talked about the background long enough, let's get to the main post.

(Might make this a two parter because it genuinely gets so so long)

(also @sweet-dining-car this is the post I mentioned)

TW: abuse, alcoholism, death, violence

So, for starters, GB wasn't always the way he is now. (Even now he actually deflects and has created this persona of a meathead who can be a total dick, but genuinely he's just a soft and nice guy at heart) Back when he was a kid, he actually was the cutest and sweetest kid out there. He was always so nice to all the other trains, and acting as a protector for all of the other trainlets (even if he was the runt of the litter. He just wanted to be like his favorite super hero: Captain America)

He would always be seen trailing Poppa or getting the most upset and doing his best to cheer up Poppa whenever he was having a bad day or looked even the slightest bit upset.

On that same note, Momma to him was like a second mother and both her and Poppa were the perfect relationship. (yes in my HCs Momma and Poppa exist together and same for the Hip Hoppers and the Rockies)

Unfortunately, at home, it wasn't as good as he could imagine it was in the train yard. At home, his dad was the biggest homophobic and toxic masculine guy you can image. A raging alcoholic with gigantic anger issues. He would constantly beat GBs mom and sometimes GB too.

His dad believed that BECAUSE he was the runt, that constant abuse would make him stronger. GB used to be the biggest cry baby but through years and years of abuse, would learn to hide it and "be a man"

His mother would sneak in some vinyls she managed to get for GB of Elvis or Frank Sinatra or anyone else she could find and she would help him hide everything when his dad would get home from work.

GB has always had a soft spot for dining cars because his mom worked close by them and he would sometimes visit her at work when he was way younger.

GB isnt actually straight. He's bi but represses it and hides behind the toxic masculinity because he made the mistake of telling his dad when his dad had a good week and he was almost beaten within the edge of his life. (and since that day, the abuse towards him was actually way worse)

GB would hide any of the abuse behind clothing and sunglasses and a cool guy persona. He would use it to deflect and pretend that nothing was wrong at home.

Eventually when GBs parents split (which was close to him turning 18), his dad managed to convince the court that his mom was unfit to be a parent. (Him and his mom talked about it before and agreed that in the end if the court asks GB his opinion on where he wants to live, he would choose his dad and then go find her when he turns 18. Because that way it would be best for the two of them)

So, at 18 he left without telling anyone and went to go find his mom. However, he never did and in fact found out about the fate of his mom from a phone call, telling him that she was found beaten to death. It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what had happened.

GB actually blames himself for his mother's death, but like a good son, uses whatever money he had earned to give his mom a proper burial.

When he has to go back to get her personal belongings, he takes all the photos and rips his dad out of all of them and hangs them around his small one bedroom apartment. He even managed to find some old recordings of his mom singing and some old home videos. (he cherishes those and will play them when he's sad so that he never forgets his mom. and in a way he always has a part of her with him)

He actually is really good at metal working (thank you mara for this headcanon) so he uses his skills to make his necklace from one of his mom's old earrings so she's always with him and in a way that necklace becomes his lucky necklace in all his early races.

Speaking of races, his first race outfit wasn't the best quality at all. He didn't have much so he created the whole outfit from scratch and he actually used to hide his face no matter what, behind a poorly made train helmet, to hide from the risk of his dad finding him.

The longer he was away from that situation, the more he actually would hide behind the early version of the persona that he has now. He's always idolized Elvis and he holds a spot close to his heart for the singer, that he started slowly changing his appearance to look more like Elvis.

He started working out so he would never be seen as weak ever again.

Eventually, he made a big enough name for himself that he would get interviews on TV every now and then and that's how his dad found out about him still being alive. At first it didn't really click in his dad's head but the moment GB started speaking, his dad knew exactly that that was his son. (Yes he sounded more like Elvis but a father never forgets his son's voice)

So, his dad, as an anonymous donor, asked a young CB to crash GB in the next race. CB, not one down to turn down money did just that. And yes, that whole interaction had put GB out of many races and caused him to pawn off any and all belongings to pay for his hospital bills because any small sponsor he had managed to get dropped him.

(No one wants damaged goods)

and while GB is back to normal, he every now and then when he's super stressed, will feel his bones aching, like a phantom injury and he will start limping slightly because he never fully healed from that.

But now that he knew about CB would go to him and ask him to throw races in his favor, sometimes paying in sexual favors, sometimes in actual money. Because otherwise, he felt like he could never be at 100% and would always lose any race after his accident.

He needed the sponsors and money so he would do anything to get back into the top contenders.

He has major daddy issues that he and Dinah have discussed before. She's probably the only one who knows about GBs true past (aside from Pearl and Poppa and Momma)

Because of his trauma, he actually hates hearing even the word "daddy" so one night when CB accidentally lets it slip during one of their sexual encounters, GB slaps him. Thats the only time GB would actually hit anyone.

On that note, GB actually wont ever truly hurt anyone. For all he knew, Rusty actually did crash and all the damage was from that crash. He had no idea the Diesels roughed him up.

But one night when him and Rusty talk and he finds out about what actually happens, Electra has to get his components (namely Krupp and Killerwatt) to hold him back as GB unleashes hell and yells at the diesels. Like there is pure murder in his eyes.

Yes, sometimes GB hurts other trains during races but after every race they get an anonymous donor paying for all the repairs and a letter along with it with a long apology and flowers. (Dinah helps him spell check it)

GB has only cried twice since he was a child. Once when he found out his mother died (and thats the only time he would turn to alcohol. Otherwise he swears off of it completely) and second when he found out Dinah was pregnant.

GB is 100% terrified of thunderstorms because it reminds himself of his old living situation. Often times you can find him hiding in the closet or under the bed, pillows over his ears and under many layers of blankets.

He would actually be one to collect Squishmallows and other stuffed animals because he never got to as a kid. But whenever he gets any stuffed animal, Dinah names them. However, when his kids are born, he gets matching squishmallows with Norma Jean and Presely and names them after his kids. (Thats probably the only time he gets to name any stuffed animal)

GB actually really really loves Dinah. On the yard he may be this dick towards her but the moment he gets home he apologizes to Dinah profusely and will do anything she wants to make up for it.

He would NEVER do anything to hurt her and when she's pregnant will go above and beyond to be there for her. He even went to Dustin to ask for advice and tried to ask him to keep the fact that Dinah was pregnant under wraps (unfortunately, Dustin, being the sweetie that he is, cannot keep it under wraps and eventually the whole yard knows. Poppa actually gives him some of the best fatherly advice.)

When he finds out that Dinah is pregnant, however, he has multiple night terrors about his childhood. He becomes extremely scared that he'd be like his dad and both Dinah and Poppa reassure him that he's nothing like his dad. That in fact, he has more of his mom in him than he realizes. (Dinah even says he looks more like his mom than his dad, even though GB doesnt see it. She's also not one to admit that she actually knows that its true. She's seen a few ripped up pictures in the trash of his dad back when GB and her first started dating.)

Dinah is actually the one who helps GB compile all of the pictures of GB and his mom into a photo album. This photo album eventually has pictures of Dinah and GB and then Dinah, Norma Jean and GB and then Dinah, Norma Jean, GB and Presely. So its just one big happy book about everything right in his life.

One day, he even finds Norma Jean decorating it and Norma Jean, being the little kid she is is worried that her dad was going to be mad because it looks like he had a bad day at the yard and she just touched something that he cherished, even if she was trying to make it pretty, but GB actually tears up at it because its the cutest thing he's seen and now that book is just that much more special to him. He actually gets the whole family to do hand prints on the back and then sign their name underneath (with an addition of him writing "One Big Happy Family" underneath it all)

_________________________________________________________

Okay okay this has to be it for this post because there are just so many more headcanons and I wanted to end it on a happier note. So if anyone wants to know more I'll create a part two but for now this is what we've got because good god is it long.

[misssophiachase]

Yess lemme help a fellow procrastinator procrastinate. AU/AH. I did this but I wanna read your version of it. Klaus is a well known porn star and caroline is his biggest fan and she meets him for the first time!

Thanks, lovely lady, sorry for the delay. Yes! I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this prompt before somewhere, not sure my version will compare at all. I did change the premise quite a bit to suit me but I hope you still like it. Title and lyrics by U2.

Even Better than the Real Thing

Las Vegas, NV

Give me one more chance…

The crowded, front stage was heaving and it seemed to swell more every time he blinked. It shouldn’t have been a surprise given his successful career, popularity and the fact it was the annual Adult Entertainment Convention in Las Vegas. 

He’d attended it for years, Klaus actually losing count how many times, but it seemed as if the whole experience had somehow become increasingly tedious and manufactured. 

Klaus hated to admit he’d retired from the industry because it made him feel so damn old and not because he missed the attention.

He still craved attention. 

But only from one person. 

As he combed the crowd, madly hoping a set of expressive, blue eyes he knew as well as his own would materialize.

But they didn’t. 

She wasn’t there.

He felt his chest constrict at the prospect. Most guys would die to have women screaming his name and throwing their best underwear on stage but Klaus was immune to such things by now. 

Today, all he felt was numb. He had been ever since she told him it was over. 

For good.

Well, my heart is where it’s always been…

His publicist nudged him in the ribs, gesturing to the nearby signing table. Klaus slightly relieved the part where they ogled every part of his body (well, mostly his famous, oversized appendage) was over and now purely about talking with the fans securely behind a wooden desk. 

Klaus could never begrudge them or their intense enthusiasm. They were the reason for his popularity and high earnings. 

He’d arrived from England orphaned, poor and desperate at first but the world of adult entertainment had captured his attention. Mainly for the money to support his siblings at first but then it had become an addictive drug he’d learned to embrace. And the best part?

He could have fun and turn off his emotions at the same time. Win-win. 

Well, that was until he met her.

Feisty. Articulate. Gorgeous.

She’d interrupted one of his first signings in Los Angeles, an anthropology major at UCLA suggesting ways he could make his acting more believable to represent human nature. It was a clear protest given everything about her screamed girl-next-door.

But he could see there was much more.

Caroline Forbes was both stunning and intelligent. Blonde, blue eyes and a steely resolve Klaus knew he could never break, nor did he want to. This brilliant woman was going to be the death of him, not that he minded.  

If Klaus wasn’t so smitten he would have told her where she could shove her acting suggestions but he didn’t. 

In fact, he’d let her show him exactly what she meant over multiple dates and outings. And he couldn’t argue with her suggestions at all, told her she could be his consultant. Caroline Forbes being Caroline Forbes had told him she liked to boss him around for free.

He hadn’t kept the smile off his lips for days. 

Well, until she decided their arrangement was purely professional, even unpaid. It killed Klaus that he could look but not touch. 

His casual flings dried up completely as he tried everything he could to convince Caroline Forbes he wasn’t the player the media portrayed him as. Fast forward two years and Elvis married them in Vegas. The convention each year had served as their anniversary celebrations. 

Until now.

This year was the first they wouldn’t celebrate because she wanted to dissolve their marriage. 

My head is somewhere in between…

It hurt.

So much so that he’d struggled to attend at first. Sure they’d had their issues but Klaus hoped they weren’t too far gone. He shuffled his way to the signing table, not bothering to look upwards at first. Until someone spoke.

“You’re even hotter in real life,” she purred, Klaus looked up probably against his better judgment given his current x-rated view of her left breast. “Can you please sign…”

“Woah, no need to flash the flesh, dear,” another voice intervened. “Trust me, he’s the kind of guy that will forget birthdays, kill your goldfish ‘chips’, forget to put the toilet seat down then…”

He knew her melodic voice all too well and while Klaus was glad she’d appeared, even at a completely inopportune time, he hated lies and needed to set them straight.

“I forgot your cousin Hayley’s birthday mainly because she hates me and our other goldfish ‘fish’ actually ate ‘chips’, I was trying to spare you the grief, love. As for the toilet seat, I am a male, we just can’t help ourselves.”

“Um, all I wanted was an autograph,” the confused girl stammered. Klaus immediately felt bad she’d been caught in the crossfire.

“Of course you do, would you mind lending me a pen to sign the divorce papers when you’re finished?” Caroline asked. 

Klaus was struggling not to react, his wife was testing his resolve. But that wasn’t unexpected. The fireworks between them had only intensified in recent months. If only they could settle their disputes in a more private and civilized way, his king-sized bed would be the perfect venue.

“I only have this…” the girl offered feebly, looking between the couple in complete confusion. 

“Lipstick?” She murmured, before inspecting it closely. “Mmmm, I don’t think the law looks too favorably on Malibu Pink, right Klaus?”

“I don’t think the law discriminates by lipstick shade,” he growled. 

“Wait, are you two married?” Someone a few people down in the line shrieked. 

“Apparently,” he conceded. “Until the lipstick dries, right love?”

“Oh my god,” she murmured, the crowd seemed to erupt, surrounding the ‘happy’ couple all at once. 

“Is he really that skilled with his cock?”

“And his mouth? Those crimson lips are to die for, I know where I want them on my body.”

“How does he do that thing exactly with his tongue during ‘69?”

Klaus could see his publicist furiously shouting on her mobile, but for some reason, the feeling of her body slammed against him in the resulting chaos calmed him.

She always had that effect on him. 

Klaus was waiting for her to pull away as usual but she clung onto him before offering an answer to the multitude of questions hurled her way. “A lady never talks.”

The crowd, obviously upset by her non-response, decided to revolt. He grabbed her securely, signaling to his publicist to send the limo to the underground carpark of the Bellagio and an extra couple of reinforcements to get them through the increasingly hostile crowd.

“What’s the matter with these people?”

“They like a lot of details,” he offered, his lips brushing her earlobe. “We are at an Adult Exhibition Convention after all.” She gave him an uncertain look before stepping away. He was worried about her safety at first until she yelled out for the benefit of the crazed crowd. 

“Klaus Mikaelson is everything he purports to be on film.  His cock is really that huge, a little crooked but he uses that particular trait to his and my benefit. His mouth and tongue meanwhile are equally legendary.” 

Klaus had every intention to intervene but hearing her talk about his prowess this way had rendered him briefly useless. So too the crazy hordes who decided they loved Caroline and all the details she had to offer.

“So, why exactly are you divorcing him?” She’d been unable to respond to that, which piqued his interest, but it helped her that the reinforcements arrived in a timely manner.

Oh my god,” Caroline hissed, pacing back and forward in his hotel room ninety minutes later. “What will the Sheriff think?”

“That you have a healthy, sex life?”

“Not helping, Mikaelson,” she groaned. “I came here to get a divorce, not embroil myself in some scandal.”

“So, why say those things? Why even show up here? Were you trying to embarrass me because you obviously got your wish.” 

“I’ll admit my intentions weren’t so pure at the outset, but I gave your cock the best damn review you’ll ever get.”

“You said he’s crooked.”

“And he is, which is the best way to reach those places most guys can’t,” she purred, her left eyebrow cocked mischievously.

“Oh really?”

“I didn’t come here to stroke your oversized ego, blame the huge, crazy, unrelenting female contingent,” Caroline shot back. 

“I know why you came,” Klaus murmured, gruffly. “Just give me the papers if you hate me so much.” 

“I don’t hate you,” she whispered, only loud enough to be heard. “I’m just so scared.”

“I would never hurt you, sweetheart. You know that.” 

“Scared that I’m not enough and that there will always be something better around the corner on your next road trip.”

“I’m basically retired by choice and last time I got feisty on a road trip was when you stowed away with the luggage in Nashville.” 

“That was fun,” she shared before switching back to reality. “I’m sorry, I’ve been dishonest with you and a little crazy because of all these foreign hormones. I mean I totally meant to crash your signing in LA all those years ago but not today because..”

“You’re pregnant?” He asked huskily, his eyes dropping to her toned belly thinking of what could be. 

“I am,” she conceded sheepishly. “I meant to share this in a much more private and controlled setting not tell the world all about your appendage.”

“You are amazing and, not just because you told everyone how well endowed I am, love.”  

“Have I ever told you how much of a conceited ass you are?”

“Not enough obviously,” he shared. “I love you, Caroline Forbes. I’ve seen plenty of fake in my industry but you truly are even better than the real thing.”

Rocky is a bad boy with an edge, and he has enough personality to bring excitement to a Celine Dion song (it’s actually a beautiful song). He’ll slice you up without a second thought and make fun of you while doing it, which makes him endearing and cooler than his peers. Whether you love the character’s zany exploits or hate them, there’s no denying that he’s one of a kind. His fourth-wall-breaking antics make him a hilarious and off-kilter alternative to his hero brethren, and even after nearly three decades of delivering wisecracks, bloodshed, and meta mischief in the panels of New York, City's beloved titles, in the past couple of year, half of the universe as a whole has been seduced by his charms.

History

Early Life

Rocky was born on [Insert Date here], in the district of Kansas. He is the second son of Lucifer, making him a hybrid of Human and an Angel. He is the second and only known Nephilim to be sired by an Archangel. Rocky was taken in by his nice adopted family who would teach him how to behave like a normal being and tried to master his powers.

After being born, Rocky began searching for his father, Lucifer and showed great confusion at the world around him. All that he appeared to know was that his mother was good and his father was supposed to be waiting for him, but nothing beyond that.

Since his father is Lucifer, it is a general assumption that Rocky is the embodiment of pure evil. This belief was originally shared even by his mother, who attempted suicide after his younger brother Jack was conceived so that her second child wouldn't be unleashed upon the world. This made Rocky learn about the consequences of his actions and gain a better understanding of mortality.

After that his younger brother resurrected their mother, however, as their mother then became convinced that Jack could be good, and that the world needed him. Unfortunately, for Rocky he was already a bad boy before he was conceived.

Eventually, after Rocky helped them defeat a demon, his Uncle also became hopeful that Rocky can turn out to be good, and could make the world a better place. They both even claimed to have been shown a vision of a future without pain, fear, or suffering.

Childhood

Rocky never knew his father, as Lucifer left shortly after his son was conceived. Rocky grew up in Kansas under the care of his mother, Kelly and his Uncle, Castiel. Throughout his childhood, Rocky became something of a wild child, getting into numerous fights. He became very close to his mother.

When other children asked where his father was, Rocky told them that his dad was the president and was busy with his career.

Losing his Mother

When he was 11 years old, Rocky's mother became afflicted with humanity, that, unbeknownst to Rocky, Kelly killed herself, who feared that both of her sons growing attachment to Lucifer would turn him away from his plan. His mother's death worsened over time, and shortly before she died, she gave Rocky a note attached to it. In her final moments, she begged Rocky to hug her, but he could not bear to look at her. She died seconds later, leaving Rocky distraught and screaming for her as he was pulled from the room by his Uncle, Castiel.

Directly after her death, Rocky ran out of the house crying.

Castiel knew very well of Lucifer's true nature and plans. So, he instead decided that he and the Winchesters would keep Rocky and Jack as their own and chose never to tell him about their father.

Raised by The Hunters

The hunters taught Rocky how to be the perfect Hunter. Rocky later recalled how, growing up in a hunter clan, Dean Winchester had often "kicked the crap out of him in order to teach him how to fight and kept him in terror by threatening to eat him.

As he grew older, Rocky started going by the name The Awesome One, which was a nickname given to him by Dean. Dean gave Rocky a few to win a girls heart. When he was ten years old, Rocky had his childhood crush, Katelyn Miller.

Quest for a hunt

Rocky built up a reputation as the self-proclaimed legendary outlaw and continued to work for the Winchesters. During his time with the hunters, Rocky had become disloyal to them, eventually planning to kill an innocent.

Before joining the Winchesters, Rocky lived in the ways of an average criminal and thug, going so far as killing an innocent.

Before The Apocalypse

After his younger brother, Jack accidentally killed someone, Rocky showed great devastation and remorse for his brother’s actions and left his home and was sent to a better place because they were afraid that if he stayed, he would eventually hurt them. This act also motivated him to go out on his own and master some of his powers to prove he is good.

The Apocalypse

As God offers to bring back his friend's mother if a hunter kills his brother, but his friend refuses, knowing that the hunter's mother would never want that. With the hunters continuing to refuse to cooperate, Rocky hopelessly watches as God eventually snaps his fingers and smites his younger brother Jack in front of him, leaving Jack with his eyes burned out and surrounded by the imprint of his wings.

After his younger brother's death, Rocky kneels on the ground before he expresses understanding for what is about to happen, stating that he knows what his brother has done and that Rocky has been right all along and God is turned into a monster. However, he can't bring himself to kill God and instead throws away the gun.

His Uncle is disturbed by the fact that Rocky's every attempt to be bad and says he no longer feels anything no matter how much he wants to as for him it was all for fun.

Still distressed over his part in his younger brother's death, he sits alone in a warehouse and asks for his Uncle's ghost to help him, instead he is met by his subconscious manifestation of his father, who tells him that the hunters still hates him and he needs to understand he is all he has left.

Something in him instead of him appearing vicious, he appeared to be sweet and mischievous.

It was learned that he will be hunted down by few hunters and he is beyond redemption, and offers him a place in Mystic Falls so as to make the world a better place, assuring him that it will make God happy.

Shortly after the war, and, in an attempt to escape, after discovering the evil behind his origins from God. Once he eventually left and found a better place to live. As for now he was sent to Mystic Falls to start a new life.

The Arrival

The Arrival II

About a year after the events of the previous encounter, Shortly after arriving, Rocky wasn't fearing that he would revert to his old destructive routine and instead he would do it for fun.

As a result, Rocky eventually left to find his place when he saw the damage he was causing towards Elena's. Rocky and Katy reunite shortly afterward, but having enough of the trouble he's caused.

Just then, one of the hunters attempts to destroy Rocky during the confrontation, and though he nearly succeeds, Rocky gains the upper hand and manages to both save his own life and manage to kill him. They then run into his old friends, who gives him a ride back to escape.

Afterward, Rocky was captured by God but then he was allowed to stay on earth as exile due to God's change of heart and Elena's legal ownership of him.

Background

Rocky, a young man raised in Kansas, moves to the town of Mystic Falls, Virginia, to live with his new life. Soon after arriving, Rocky befriends Elena's friends, as a result, this draws Rocky into the supernatural world of Mystic Falls, where it is plagued by vampires, werewolves, witches, doppelgängers and Original Vampires. He soon meets and falls for a troubled teenage girl named Elena, who has feuding two vampire brothers Stefan and Damon vie for the affection of captivating teenager Elena.

» PERSONALITY «

Personality

Rocky's flawed personality, he is a very unique person that is a rather likable character with a couple of positive traits. He is good-hearted and generous to others as well. He is known to take pity on stray animals and is kind to most people in need of help, sometimes even to other villains in the show.

Rocky usually discards the very norm set in the vampire diaries world. A hero has to be the villain who takes care of others, save their lives and even spare innocent beings from a death sentence. A villain is expected to create mayhem, abuse the helpless people to blackmail the superhero, and crave for world dominance at the end as a hero.

Rocky is unique in the sense that he is a combination of both. He is neither a good guy nor evil. He is nothing but a bad boy who has a good heart and does what he wants and is exceptionally good at it.

He is the king of sense of humor. His intelligent and stingy remarks can take the tension off in the gravest of situations. Rocky's ability to stay cool by acting like a fool really works for him. His people have even nicknamed him as "the awesome one" for not taking things seriously. Yet he never fails to deliver. Maybe that’s because he never panics.

Rocky also enjoys chatting about pop culture, particularly movies and celebrities. He purposely wastes much screen time talking about other movies instead of creating content for his own one, which is a sign of laziness.

As he was loaded with the anti-hero's self-indulgent sarcasm and over-the-top meta movie references, but with all his time spent on ass-kicking, there's a question as to how Rocky finds so much time to just Netflix and chill.

Physical Appearance

“ He's good-looking, but don't you dare tell him I said that. ”

– Katy Miller about Rocky's appearance, in The interview

Rocky has blue eyes and dark brown hair, which he inherited from his father and mother. Katy later states that when Rocky pleads, his blue-grey eyes seemed to be "like a cute baby seal that needed help" and marvels at how men and wo had ever won an argument with him. He is 6'1"--- making him taller than his younger brother Jack—and muscular. Rocky gets his handsome looks from his father, a reason why Katy wanted to preserve her love of him. He doesn't seem to know it or may simply refuse to acknowledge it, but a great number of girls find him extremely attractive.

At the beginning of the series, Rocky was average in athletics but later from his training, becomes very fit, muscular, and lean. After his reunion with Katy, Katy says that Rocky grew even more handsome, and muscular. Rocky had a short sleeve open collar striped shirt, dark indigo necktie with red-and-blue stripes, blue jeans, black and white converse, In The Ship of Conquest, Rocky wore a white T-shirt, black jeans, and black and white sneakers.

Rocky is noted to be "handsome" by other characters constantly. Unlike any other being seen on the Vampire Diaries, Rocky's eyes glow gold. They often glow when Rocky uses his powers. When his friends discovered Rocky hiding in the corner of the room, they were visibly frightened by Rocky's somewhat creepy appearance. After he encounters Kai, Rocky obtains an outfit.

Rocky has also been shown with a large pair of angelic wings, which seems to be as big as those of Archangels. He once used them to shield an individual from the explosion and showed them after absorbing an angelic grace to show the others his powers are back.

After being a murderer, Rocky's eyes glow red.

The buzz, the dog and 'life-changing' chances - FA Cup first-round preview

Media playback is not supported on this device

Muddy pitches, tin-foil cut-out cups and widespread potential for first-round shocks – yes, the FA Cup is poised for another possible “life-changing” weekend for many, as English Football League clubs enter this season’s competition.

From seventh-tier Metropolitan Police to League One leaders Portsmouth, 80 sides know they are just two wins away from a potential big-money third-round draw.

At least six clubs from outside the English Football League will reach round two, but a further 20 non-league outfits will be hoping to join them by beating league opposition.

Among the remaining 14 all-EFL ties, two-time winners Sunderland travel to Port Vale as the Black Cats make their first appearance in round one since 1987.

But who is “lapping up” a possible giant-killing, who will be mindful of avoiding an upset and who is hoping a dog can help inspire them into round two?

FA Cup first-round fixtures[1]

‘You ain’t nothing but a hound dog’

The lowest-ranked side left in the competition are seventh-tier Hitchin Town, who have reached this stage for the first time in 23 years and will host National League Solihull Moors on Sunday.

Manager Mark Burke was playing for the Canaries the last time they featured in the first round in 1995, in one of over 700 appearances he made for the club.

“It’s historic and the town have come out for us,” he told BBC Three Counties Radio. “The community have got right behind us and we’re expecting a sell-out, with 3,500 people here cheering us on.”

Hitchin’s former Luton, Leeds and Watford midfielder Matthew Spring, who has featured in the fifth round at Arsenal for Leyton Orient, added: “I can see the excitement in the lads and that’s good enough for me – even seeing some of them nervous.

“If they [Solihull] come here and don’t fancy it and we have a good day, you just never know – that’s what we’re hoping for, that we can spring a surprise.”

The hosts will also hope their lucky mascot, a dog called Elvis who is a regular at Hitchin games, can boost them on Sunday.

And the tie will be played at the Top Field ground exactly 147 years since the same venue staged a Hitchin-based side’s game on the first day of the inaugural FA Cup on 11 November, 1871.

More history for Maidenhead

The old Hitchin FC were one of eight teams to play that day. Another of those, remarkably, is also in action this weekend, on another ground that hosted one of the opening ties 147 years ago.

National League Maidenhead United – managed by a former cup winner in ex-West Ham United midfielder Alan Devonshire – will host Portsmouth in Saturday’s 12:30 GMT kick-off.

Their York Road ground was where they beat Marlow in the first round in 1871, when just 15 clubs entered the now-world-famous competition.

Saturday will see them host a former FA Cup winner for a third time, with Pompey following Old Etonians and Oxford University in travelling to Maidenhead, who themselves lost at 1987 winners Coventry[4] last season.

Yet the Magpies, who are making their 10th first-round appearance, are bidding to reach round two for the first time.

Met Police cause upset in fourth qualifying round[7]

‘You can feel the energy’ – Hampton & Richmond’s ‘biggest game’

Monday’s eagerly anticipated tie will see Hampton & Richmond Borough host League Two Oldham, in what is being described as the National League South outfit’s biggest ever fixture.

Former Charlton and Bristol Rovers striker Chris Dickson, whose first goal for the Addicks came in the cup against West Bromwich Albion in 2008, is among the hosts’ more experienced men.

“You just get a buzz. For the last few weeks we’ve been told not to talk about it and literally everyone wants to talk about it!” the 33-year-old told BBC Radio London.

“But now that it’s come round, you can just feel the energy. It’s everywhere at the moment. Everyone wants to be a part of it. The lads are going to lap it up.”

The Beavers produced one of the shocks of the fourth qualifying round as they won at National League Eastleigh, but their league form has dipped since, with two defeats and a draw in their subsequent three games.

Manager Gary McCann added: “I’ve been very much in the doldrums after the last few league games, with three really disappointing performances. Admittedly, the distraction of the cup played its part recently.

“We wanted more. But all that’s done is open the mindset up into what side we’re going to pick for Monday. They’ve left the door open, I’m afraid.

“Speaking to certain people in and around the football club, they’ve been quick to tell me this is the biggest game in the club’s 97-year history. I don’t think it’s a game you need to motivate for.”

The prize they’re all playing for

<!–

If a lower-league club can pull off a shock – or multiple shocks – the financial rewards can be vast and long-lasting. Just ask League Two leaders Lincoln City, whose dramatic 2016-17 run has helped fund their new £1.3m elite performance centre.

Speaking as the 12.3 acre training-ground site opened, vice-chairman Roger Bates told BBC Sport: “The television money and the prize money have gone a long way towards underpinning what we’ve done here.

“It’s fair to say that, without that cup run, this would have been a challenge. The progress we’ve been able to make gives us a real sense of pride.”

Chief executive Liam Scully added: “The support we’ve had from the city and the spirit of football is ultimately why we all work in this game, for stories such as this that we’re living right now.

“This has all been achieved by six crazy months in a sense, by what was a relatively small non-league club at the time. To see us where we are now, averaging 8,500 gates, is phenomenal.”

Lincoln overcame Guiseley, Altrincham, Oldham, Ipswich, Brighton and Premier League Burnley before losing to Arsenal in the last eight, playing nine games in that run including replays.

The Imps knocked out the Clarets with a late 1-0 win at Turf Moor[8] in February 2017 to become the first non-league side to reach the quarter-finals for 103 years.

One of the stars of that run, forward Matt Rhead, added: “The FA Cup can change your life. We didn’t have a training ground at the time – we were training at parks, fields, wherever we could find. Now it’s somewhere that we can all call home.”

Lincoln host Northampton Town on Saturday, with £36,000 up for grabs for first-round winners this term after total prize money was doubled for this season to £30.2m.

What about those wanting to avoid a shock?

<!–

Those scanning the first-round fixtures for possible shocks will likely look for three things; a lower-league side playing at home, a higher-ranked side enduring a poor run and minnows who are extra motivated.

At Saturday’s tie between Ebbsfleet United and Cheltenham Town, all three arguably apply. The National League hosts have a new boss in Garry Hill,[9] after Daryl McMahon’s exit by mutual consent on Wednesday.

Hill’s new side face a Robins outfit which is yet to win under manager Michael Duff in his nine League Two matches so far.

“It won’t be easy. In the pyramid, they’re not that many players below us,” Duff told BBC Radio Gloucestershire. “The players are fully aware of where we are and what we need to do.

“It’s a tough game but we’re not focused on them. The spotlight is on us, from us. They’re got lots of good players, but we’re looking at ourselves at the moment.”

Grand gestures

Whatever the results this weekend, one club’s set of fans have already been made happy.

Boreham Wood chairman Danny Hunter is paying for the match tickets for every fan making the 416-mile round trip to Southport for their match.

The fixture is one of six all-non-league ties (all times GMT):

Chesterfield v Billericay (Sat, 15:00)

Southport v Boreham Wood (Sat, 15:00)

Sutton United v Slough Town (Sat, 15:00)

Torquay v Woking (Sat, 15:00)

Hitchin v Solihull Moors (Sun, 12:45)

Weston-super-Mare v Wrexham (Sun, 12:45)

January 27th 2018

I’ve decided to keep a diary. This decision was based partly on my newfound sobriety. It’s been 12 days since my last sip of alcohol. I chose to be sober because I kept blacking out and doing and saying things I don’t remember. It’s terrifying to lose chunks of time, especially since I’m so worried about time, all the time..hah. It scares me to death how I could wake up and be 5 years older and still in the same place, and then not even really remember what all I did during that time. So I suppose that’s my whole reason for this diary. I need to remember this. I need to remember my life. I have a terribly interesting one. Even without the alcohol. I thought it was just the booze, nope, it’s just me. 

Super quick ( but not really ) back story: I’ve been single for a year from Justin as of this month. Nothing really special about that other than it’s the longest we've ever been apart... or even spoke...He’s still the same guy though, doing the same exact things he used to, except now with Herpes. I spent a few months with Eldorado in the spring and the summer riding motorcycles and dressing up and pretending to be cool. He really liked me, but maybe only as much as an Aries can really like anyone. I ended up ending our fling on Halloween when he decided to have a bad attitude about me wanting to spend time with my friends, which probably stemmed from my bad attitude over his dumb hockey costume and poor choice of evening plans ( the black lodge party ). Yes, I was being a total brat. But in the end it showed me who I really wanted to waste all my time with. My two best friends, and not this brain rotted 46 year old. My 25th birthday was freaking amazing besides the DJ’s losing their shit, getting too drunk off the jameson handle I bought them, and then storming out. My ex Jonathan let me borrow some super professional sound system stuff and that really took the party to the next level. It was space cowboy themed and most people dressed up. It was the most fun i’ve ever had at one of my birthday parties. Also I got a huge Annie Oakley tattoo for my birthday. Maybe I’ll make a whole post about that later? Moving on... I have a ten times better relationship with my mother, and it makes my dad super happy that we’re getting along. I decided a while back that I needed to spend more time with my parents, whatever that looked like, and it’s paid off. Besides the material things i’ve gotten out of it, it’s been a joy to see my parents happy and give me attention again. It’s been good for my soul. Speaking of, I go to church now! Every Sunday, at Second Pres. I’m stunned. I really enjoy it. Besides still being the resident black sheep, I’ve been enjoying getting that time in to learn from the Bible and get to know God more. He’s been really good to me. All my life. I have a feeling He’s got something special planned for me. Bonnibelle has cancer and that’s why we didn’t go to Pittsburgh this year. We were 48 hours away from hoping in the car and driving up there when we got the confirming news. I was pretty upset but I ended up living with my parents for a few days. Mom and I watched hours of Kardashians and Desperate housewives. She ended up missing me a lot ( surprise ) and wanted me to stay even longer. Okay so what else... I’m doing well in my online biology class, and that’s a relief because I had to drop out of my last biology class. It was way too tough. I have 2 classes after this that I need to pass in order to graduate. Intro to biology 2 and statistics. I saved the worst for last like I had planned to all along, but I didn’t know it was going to be this bad. It will be two years in April or May that I haven’t eaten a cow or a pig, and keegan has gone completely Vegan. I wish I could do it too. I just love eating chicken and eggs and gamey shit too much. Chocolate chip cookies and fancy cheese isn’t something I would ever be willing to give up. I’m in therapy with this really nice lady names Deborah. She validates me a lot and will actually give me advice if I ask. Which is a huge bonus. I have pink hair and I weigh 157lbs. I work at Aldos still and Ashley is still a bitch. Trying to transition back to blonde, get a bunch of tattoos, eat right, work out, do some yoga, meditate, write in this diary, and spend a lot of time with my friends. I think that’s enough of an update. Time to tell you about my day. 

Well today I had lunch with my dad at La Guadalapana. He ordered the goat BBQ just like me. It’s my favorite thing there. He sad he liked it but he didn’t finish it so I’m not sure he really did. I gave back the credit card, and not begrudgingly like I thought I would. I’m happily taking care of my finances and doing well at work helps a lot. I like using my own money to buy my groceries and gas. It feels less guilty. I worked from 4pm-12am. I was the closer and I made roughly $200. I never know what to do with my money when I get a nice paycheck. There is ALWAYS something that I need buy that makes me poor all over again. I really need to buy comfortable work shoes. I’ve been off work for an hour and 30 minutes and my feet are still throbbing. Its time that I take care of my body in that regard. BUT I could also go ahead and buy my air bnb for chicago and or my second city ticket... My dad always tried to tell me that instant gratification is great but it isn’t always the best thing.. especially when there are priorities to take care of. I think I’ll buy the shoes next week. No excuses. Hopefully I actually bite the bullet and do it. You never know with me. I’m at home now and typing this as the Bachelor is on. It’s Aries season and he's in the hot tub with 22 year old Becca. I don’t think I like her for him. I broke the glass bakeware dish in the sink. Well, it was still hot and I ran cool water on it and it shattered. Lesson learned. Hopefully no one gets mad at me about it. But it’s sort of ironic. Because it happened in the same side of the sink that Melodie, our neighbor/good friend, broke the smaller of the two Pyrex bowls that Oma used to own. I don’t even want to talk about that right now. I can’t believe it’s already 1:38am. Where does the time go? Glad I’m writing this down... So yeah.. I’m sober. Well, not from weed. I have to have something haha. I like it so far. Didn’t think I would say that. I sleep better and deeper. My skin is doing well. I haven't lost any weight, even though I would like to say I have. But it’s been less than two weeks. I’m clearly anxious for that aspect of sobriety to show up. It might make the trade seem a bit more worth it. My goals for tomorrow are to study the biology quiz and go to work with a good attitude and a big smile on my face like I did today. Sunday I hope to get off work so I can go to church and then have plenty of time to get ready for the Grammys party Jen is throwing at Alchemy. Obviously I won’t be able to write in this thing very single night. But even a few times a month would be good. Like I said, I need to remember. Anyway, at the end of every post I may or may not list a few arbitrary memphis fun facts. Here are todays: 

> That record store in memphis ( can’t remember the name of it right now, will update later ) closed today. They were a business for 25 years. It flew around the sun as many times as I have. I remember driving by it in Omas car and my moms car as a little kid. They had a huge Elvis cut out in this big giant glass case thing on the side/roof of the building. It was an impressive place. I bought my Borat copy there. It’s a shame that they're moving on. I’m curious as to what they'll turn it into next. There’s been a lot of new development in Memphis lately. 

> Skinnys Atomic Tiki restaurant bar had it’s grand opening today. Just now realizing that James had the crazy idea to open up a tiki bar. The petty side of me is glad that Skinny did it before him. James was probably there too.. I wasn't upset one bit that I had to be at work all night and miss this event. I’ll see it later. 

> The Cleveland Street Flea Market is closing Feb 4th. I’ve gotten some cool pieces from that place. Most notably my new trash can that sits under my vanity. Really disappointed about this one. We need cool affordable places to shop for decent vintage stuff and now all of that will either be pushed to antique warehouse or A moment in time ( God I hope not ). 

That’s all for tonight, I have to go clean a bunch of glass out of the sink now.
