OC-tober Day 15: Meme

And we're back! I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to do for this prompt (and didn't really want to draw over a meme), so I ended up doing two things. The image is one, but there's also a bunch of incorrect quotes (mostly pulled from this generator) under the cut with these same characters. I'm also gonna list who's who below, so the quotes make a bit more sense.

So the characters are:

Megan (gray, furthest to the top) Jayden (purple, on the left line) Envy (green, just under Jayden) Corey (pink, left-most on the bottom line) Drew (blue-gray, right of Corey) Apollo (blue, right of Drew) Shatter (orange, furthest to the right) Eris (yellow, just left of Shatter)

-----

Shatter: Drew, I need you to swear- Drew: Fuck. Shatter: Shatter: I need you to promise-

-

Envy: But what about Drew? Jayden: Don't worry about them. Jayden: I once watched him fall down 5 flights of stairs, stand up, and keep eating their hotdog like nothing happened.

-

Apollo: Where are you going? Drew: Hell, eventually.

-

Envy: Don’t worry, I know exactly what I’m doing. Everything is going to be fine! Shatter: How can you still say that? Envy: Because sometimes, when things get tough, denial is all we have.

-

Shatter: I hope you have an explanation for this. Megan: We have three actually- Corey: Pick your favorite.

-

Eris: What does “take out” mean? Megan: Food. Jayden: Dating. Corey: Murder. Drew: It can be all three if you’re brave enough.

-

Envy: I lost Megan. Apollo: How did you LOSE Megan?! Envy: To be fair, she is very small.

-

Drew: Boy's haunted. Shatter: Wha- What? Drew, pointing at Jayden: Boy's haunted.

-

Envy: Who else is hiding in the laundry room trying to listen to Megan and Drew's convo? Apollo: Me. I'm in the laundry basket. Corey: I'm in the washing machine. Jayden: I'm in the closet. Apollo: We accept you Jayden. <3 Jayden: No, I'm literally in the closet. Apollo: Love is love. <3

-

Eris: We all have our demons. Jayden, grabbing Drew: This one’s mine!

-

Drew: I failed my safety training course today. Envy: Why, what happened? Drew: Well one of the questions was "In case of a fire, what steps would you take?" Envy: And? Drew: Well apparently "FUCKING LARGE ONES" isn't an acceptable answer.

-

Envy: So, did everyone learn their lesson? Corey: No. Jayden: I did not. Drew: I may have actually forgotten one. Eris: Also no. Envy: Oh good, neither did I. Shatter: *Exhausted sigh*

-

Corey: If you don't stop talking, I'm going to jump out of that window. Eris: ...We're on the ground floor. Corey: I know but I want a dramatic exit.

-

Jayden: Truth or dare? Drew: Truth. Jayden: How many hours have you slept this week? Drew: Drew: Dare. Jayden: Go to sleep. Drew: I don't like this game.

-

Megan: Apollo won’t come out of his room! Envy: Just tell him I said something. Megan: Like what? Envy: Anything factually incorrect. Megan, shrugging: If you say so. Apollo, arriving moments later: Did you just say the sun is a PLANET?

-

Jayden: Shouldn't get stressed out, it's not good for the baby. Shatter: What baby? Jayden, crying a bit: Me.

First year of ArtFight yay

And here are character pfps!!! Phill have two variants, since I couldn't chose which one is better

Characters: K, Hellspawn, Erie, Phill, Kyra, Moonrise and Skyfall

[eowyn-huxley]

𝐄𝐎𝐖𝐘𝐍 𝐑𝐇𝐈𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐎𝐍 𝐇𝐔𝐗𝐋𝐄𝐘 “Do not take life too seriously. You'll never get out of it alive.”

✦ 𝔟𝔞𝔰𝔦𝔠𝔰

Name: Eowyn Rhiannon Huxley Nickname(s): Eri (only by Arwyn) Date of Birth: 21 May 1999 [25] Place of Birth: Cardiff, Wales, UK [Welsh] Hometown: Cardiff, Wales, UK Current Residence: London, England, UK Occupation: Events Planner

✦ 𝔣𝔞𝔪𝔦𝔩𝔶

Father: Phillip Huxley † Mother: Meredith Huxley (née Davies) Sibling(s): Owen †, Grace, Heather & Arwyn (twin) Huxley Pet(s): Martini a.k.a. Mimi (a pomeranian dog)

✦ 𝔟𝔞𝔠𝔨𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔯𝔶

As the first born in her family's set of twins, Eowyn has always been mistaken as being younger than her actual younger sister, Arwyn. With an incredibly vivacious and carefree personality, she'd often land herself in less-than-favourable situations when the idea of fun would triumph over that of safety. It has been this way ever since she was a little girl. Whether it be someone's birthday, a holiday gathering or a simple garden tea party with her dolls, she would always find herself in the spotlight, and loving every second of it. There was no denying she had the energy, the charisma, and the aura that drew everyone in, may it be friends, boys or even competition. But despite their differences, Eowyn has always been her twin sister's champion; if anything, it is because of her that no one really dares poke fun at the much quieter, more "eccentric" Huxley twin. After all, it's the least she could do for all the times Arwyn has saved her from irreversible trouble.

”Love is all they needed” Amaya you’re clever but this was all sort of your fault witch

Tbh I would’ve agreed with Gabo had they injured Val in some way

I may do exclusively one liners as my brain is not in the right place right now though.

[mermaidsirennikita]

Any reca where after the first time the mcs have sex, either of them are like “eh I dunno that was mid” so the other one is determined to fix that?

I’ve seen it happen once.

Well, I will say that I just finished The Mistress Experience by Scarlett Peckham, coming out 6/25. It's SO SO GOOD, can't recommend it enough, and it focuses on a sexually inexperienced (not virginal) hero who hires the heroine, a famous courtesan, to teach him how to be good in bed for when he gets married. Obviously, their first couple of encounters aren't GREAT and there's some really interesting stuff done regarding experience and stuff. SO GOOD.

Dark Needs at Night's Edge by Kresley Cole has the virginal Conrad Wroth get with Neomi, a former burlesque dancer who's super experienced. I don't even think he makes it inside her the first time lol and he's very UGH OH NO I SUCK and she's like petting his head very understanding all "don't worry bb you'll figure it out". It's actually quite cute.

Actually, in Kiss of a Demon King by Kresley Cole when Rydstrom takes Sabine's (technical) virginity she REALLY doesn't like it. She's not like... traumatized? But he's very caught up and she's like telling her sister "well, NEVER doing THAT again". (She does that again.) Rydstrom is an AAAAALPHA so he's like "well I am in fact going to make her come five billion times".

A Rose at Midnight by Anne Stuart (which is, to be clear, a dark historical romance with dubcon between the leads at first) has a variation of this. She's pretending to not be into it but she is (though she doesn't come the first time because she's trying to enjoy it and is angry that she's enjoying it) and he's like... devastated by the fact that he came REAL FAST (after telling her he wouldn't lmao) and she didn't and SHE HAS THE UPPER HAND!!!! They're both kinda morons in love I love them. He is determined to get that upper hand lol.

In Nobody's Baby But Mine by Susan Elizabeth Phillips, they have very mid sex twice (where he's actively like "I don't even know why??? I want to have sex with you so badly???") but after she gets pregnant, very much by her design, and he forces her to marry him (lmao) he does eventually resolve to fuck her good.

His at Night by Sherry Thomas has a very sort of like... quick and ouch first time, and there's a lot of resentment between them, but he does make it up to her for sure after being like "yeah I flubbed that".

Bass-Ackwards by Eris Adderly has a very WEIRD kinda coercive first time wherein the heroine gets fucked over her boss's desk in exchange for some PTO (and he's like in the moment all "can I fuck your ass" and she's like "I guess???" which was a choice) and then later he actually tries to give her good sex lol.

Act Your Age by Eve Dangerfield has a variation on this wherein the hero and heroine have great sex throughout the book, BUT one of several elephants in the room is that he won't go down on her, and I thought that was dealt with in a really interesting way.

Run, Posy, Run by Cate C. Wells has a hero and heroine in a relationship at the beginning of the book that's really disconnected, and he honestly doesn't care to really give her good sex and she doesn't really know to expect it... And then he's tricked into thinking she's cheated, she goes on the run because he's a mafioso, he realizes he was tricked and chases after her, and realizes he needs to go back to the drawing room sexually as part of his efforts to get her back. And boy does he.

The Chief by Monica McCarty has the hero and heroine have sex in a situation where he didn't actually know it was her lol, and she was a virgin so it was a big surprise ouch deal, and then he couldn't even finish... So after they're subsequently forced to marry, he kinda has to fix it lol.

Tempt Me at Twilight by Lisa Kleypas has the infamous scene where Harry withdraws because he thinks he's causing Poppy agony (he's not it just hurt a bit and he freaked out and stopped and was all I'M A MONSTERRRR) and he basically ghosts and Poppy has to be like "YOU GET BACK HERE AND FUCK ME GOOD".

Barbie Battle 2! This time it's the villians

Due to recurring villians in series and a handful of films with no villians, we don't quite have an even 32, but I've rounded it out in a way I think is fair.

[Image: a tournament bracket showing 32 Barbie characters. The matchups are:

Phillipe (Three Musketeers) vs Don (Lost Birthday)

Crystal (Fairy Secret) vs Phillippe Cheynet (Pony Tale)

Rat King (Nutcracker) vs Henna (Mariposa and Her Butterfly Fairy Friends)

Ariana (Island Princess) vs Caligo (Pearl Princess)

Snow Queen (Pink Shoes) vs Rothbart (Swan Lake)

Seymour Crider (Princess and the Popstar) vs Malucia (Secret Door)

Dame Devin (Princess Charm School) vs Wenlock (Magic of the Pegasus)

Joe and Marty (Great Puppy Adventure) vs Barbie's Terrible Decision Making (Puppy Chase & Perfect Christmas)

Laverna (Fairytopia) vs Rowena (Twelve Dancing Princesses)

Jaqueline (Fashion Fairytale) vs Preminger (Princess and the Pauper)

Marlo (Dolphin Magic & Mermaid Power) vs Johan (Princess Adventure)

Gwyllion (Mariposa and the Fairy Princess) vs Baron Von Ravendale (Princess Power)

Agent Dunbar (Spy Squad) vs Eris (Mermaid Tale)

Lydia (Diamond Castle) vs Capitalism (Thumbelina and Christmas Carol)

Gothel (Rapunzel) vs Raquelle (Barbie Diaries)

Mr Miller (Big City, Big Dreams) vs Clive (Rock 'n Royals)

End.]

Chapter 16 of my Owl House fanfic, "Kindness & Forgiveness", is out! Please go give it a read! <3

This is a chapter I've been excited for for a LONG time, because we're meeting an OC of mine. Phillip's new Palisman... Named Currant!

Art was commissioned by me from a friend named Eris, she doesn't have a twitter or tumblr to link though.

(A basic premise, this fic centers around a hypothetical Belos redemption arc. What that would entail, and what it would take to get there.)

its not spooky season until we talk about the one and only max phillips hehehehe

THIS IS ME RIGHT NOW TO YOU! BAD ERI! ALL BONKS TO YOU!

God he’s so frustratingly hot and I hate him…

I have this very specific dialogue of him in my head of yelling at him how one day you’re gonna stab him with a stake to the heart and he replies back so flirty

“Oo, baby didn’t think you were into that?!”

And I want to shove him into a box and shake him around

He probably does the thing where whenever he passes by a mirror he always frantically gasps or jumps seeing his reflection and you roll your damn eyes everytime

Or even worse one night when you and him are walking back home and a bat flies by he immediately yells out saying - “Oh look! It’s my cousin Mark!”

And you don’t know if he’s being serious…

He’s frustrating, cocky, ridiculous, but I honestly think he’d be a devout lover and again I wanna shove him into a box and throw him far far away from me

2024 Reading Goals

Hello hello! Happy New Year to all!

Fun fact, by posting this at 11:00am GMT, 2023 has officially ended in all inhabited countries as UTC -11 is the last inhabited timezone.

I haven't been a resolutions person for a couple of years now but I admit I do love a challenge and goal setting. I also love reading. I'm sure you don't need the title to tell you where this is going. I've had goodreads since Sept, 2016 and have been taking part in their reading challenge since 2020. I've met my goal evey year except 2021 and I hope to make three years in a row this year!

2023's goal was an ambitious 48 books and I somehow managed to read 48 (I attribute a good 1/3 to getting a library card and access to libby). 18 of those books were comics/manga though and while I do believe anything with a ISBN counts, I'd like for comics & manga to only be about 25% of my books instead of the current 38%. I feel like I might be setting myself up a bit but I'm not going to be too upset if at the end of the year, I don't lower the percentage. This is just a bit of fun.

Anyways in no particular order, here's a tentative list of the 48 books I plan to read in 2024. This is subject to change due to availability, gifts, recommendations and new releases.

Hello, 'tis I again.

Been working on an oc alphabet challenge on and off for the last while (mostly as an excuse to touch up designs or just actually get some designs down) and finally finished recently, so I'll be posting them over the next while.

[beardedmrbean]

An NYPD warehouse filled with DNA evidence that was destroyed in a massive fire was still smoldering Wednesday, with authorities no step closer to determining how many criminal cases may be effected by the blaze.

Nearly 24 hours after the fire began, FDNY Fire Marshals have just begun combing through the remains of the Erie Basin Auto Pound on Columbia St. in Red Hook as a team of firefighters continue to put out small blazes throughout the building.

“We still have units on scene operating on hot spots as needed,” an FDNY spokesman said. “Fire Marshals are on scene investigating the cause and origin.”

The NYPD can’t go in and catalogue what evidence was lost — including from some cold cases — until the embers from Tuesday’s 10:30 a.m. blaze are cold. It remains unclear what, if anything, can be recovered from the heavily damaged building, which suffered a partial collapse.

The city’s Department of Buildings has been tasked with conducting a structural stability inspection of the warehouse to see if the building can be salvaged, an agency spokesman said.

The DOB will also be checking neighboring buildings to see if their stability was compromised by the fire. At least one adjacent business claimed that the blaze caused his building to shake and vibrate, the agency’s website noted.

Fourteen NYPD employees and six contractors were working in the warehouse when one of the contractors saw smoke coming from a “high shelf,” said NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey.

The warehouse contained hundreds of seized e-bikes, dirt bikes and ATVs along with “biological evidence” — clothing and other items that were tested for DNA, Maddrey said.

Most of the evidence was for criminal cases that stretch back decades, Maddrey said.

“I would estimate that most of the contents [inside] are damaged by the amount of fire in there,” FDNY Chief of Department John Hodgens said Tuesday.

If that evidence was destroyed, it could affect scores of people whose criminal cases are pending appeal, according to Joel Rudin, an attorney who specializes in wrongful conviction cases.

“If DNA evidence from old cases is destroyed it’ll make it even harder to establish innocence,” Rudin said. “It’s the defendant’s burden, years after conviction, to prove actual or likely innocence, and this will make it harder in some cases.

“If forensic evidence was destroyed that, if properly tested, might indicate a current defendant’s innocence, such defendant’s chance of an acquittal will decrease,” Rudin said.

NYPD Deputy Commissioner Julian Phillips said the department will catalogue what was damaged or destroyed and will make notifications to the relevant agencies.

Three firefighters, three EMS members and two civilians suffered minor injuries, authorities said.

Hurricane Sandy destroyed 5,000 55 gallon cardboard drums filled with DNA evidence when the ground floor of the facility was flooded by the storm surge, police said.

The NYPD uses the auto pound to hold all the illegal dirt bikes and ATVs cops seize from city streets. Vehicles that are evidence in criminal investigations, such as cars that victims were shot inside, are kept there as well.

When world's collide: A crossover fic

by Elizabeth_Bland138

Dazai ran his hands through his hair, messing it up. It was getting a bit long; he’d have to trim it eventually. His phone buzzed. Had someone texted him? Or was it just a notification. He took a hold of his phone, tapping the little button on the side to turn it on. He put in the password, clicking on the notification, “The hell…” he hissed, reading the notification- a series of texts from an unknown number reading;

-----------------------------------------------

+81 ***-***-***

 +81 ***-***-*** : Do you truly know who your father is?

+81 ***-***-*** : Do you know what he does?

+81 ***-***-*** : Would you like to know?

 -----------------------------------------------

“Okay.. what the fuck.”

 OR

Dazai and Izuku both get a weird series of texts and it spirals from there.

Ho ho hello! I am back! 🌲

The elves and I are beginning to get some ideas but we still need more information before we move onto the next phase of questions. Today we have a four parter. I know you're open to many possibilities, but this Santa wants you to be a bit selfish. 😈

Are there any must-haves for you? (Certain tropes, moments, or themes that you absolutely adore and would love to see in the story?)

On the flip side, are there any no-gos —things you'd prefer to avoid or that don’t really work for you when it comes to Azris? I want to make sure I stay clear of anything that wouldn’t vibe with your preferences!

Do you have any favorite Azris fics that you've read? Or any fics that you think have spot on characterization for Azriel and Eris (could be separate fics per character)? Share those with me too!

Lastly, I’d love to get a little more insight into your overall taste—what are some of your all-time favorite books 📚 or movies 🎥? Anything you’ve read or watched 👀 recently that’s been an instant favorite?

The elves and I will be eagerly awaiting your response ✨

p.s. I will not be reading Gothikana now!

p.p.s. Does santa need to go beat up this guy for you?? --https://www.tumblr.com/sizzlingstarlightsky/763916157686267904/do-i-write-a-one-shot-to-process-the-disgust-i?source=share

Santa, Are you telling me to be naughty?💅🏻😈❤️‍🔥 That I could get a big black log stuffed in my stocking while the fire roars?

I have this crazy headcanon of Azriel having a little thing with Jurian. How did I forget that till now? 👀

They're definitely a 'one fell first, but the other fell harder' trope. Azriel threatens Eris, but he's just being sexy anger. Eris and his cocky, snarky flirting skills get him in 'trouble'. Totally not to rile Az up.

I'd never complain about a broody wank where the thought of the other doesn't leave post nut. Thanks brain for finally working

OH definitely the shadows being more aware. Maybe they start making moves or something. They're totally shit stirrers.

If Beron's there 🤮 he needs to die brutally and publicly so the babies can frolick and frot through the forest 😶‍🌫️

No gos? Anything where Lucien ends up unhappy. Maybe Rhys being against it. I see him approving for political reasons. But not super casually. No IC boot licking. Let's humble some people a little.

There's a couple of fics I've read but can't find. I have to go on a scavenger hunt to find them. I think one of the accounts deactivated 🫠 My issue is that there's just too much great material to pick from

I have a lot of favorites. Agatha Christie will forever be my queen. I have at least 40 individual books. The ABC Murders is one of my favorites. Hunger Games is a classic. I recently read Hum by Helen Phillips. That was a fascinating read. Not really what I thought, but I think about it still. How could I forget Out by Natsuo Kirino. That's the book that got me back into reading early this year. Highly recommend. Talk about a book sticking 😱

Blade Runner [Final Cut always final cut] is my all time favorite. It's the grandfather of the synthwave aesthetic. The Back To The Future Trilogy and Clueless are my comfort movies. Well, and Tangled. I was a Little Mermaid kid growing up. Until I met Eugene Fitzherbert. 😍 and the Witch Mountain series stuck with me.

I recently discovered the show What We Do In The Dark. Early on in the pilot, I knew it was already an all time top 5 show. Think The Office, but Vampires in Staten Island. How To Get Away With Murder, Lucifer (the first camera angle sold it for me. That's gotta be another top 5) and I guess I should at least mention Revenge since I've watched that at least 3 times 🤭

I think about you throughout my day Santa 🖤😘 sleep well, wake better

p.s. I tried finding the editor. Why did no one give this woman a thesaurus? Beautiful for a shelf though.

p.s.s. You're so real for that Santa. Last thing I told him was "he's got an inflated sense of self. It's repulsive, and he continues to disgust me" then block. If I see him at ShopRite...

Co-Owner of Binary Options Company Sentenced to Prison for Tax Evasion

Company and Co-Owner Ordered to Pay Approximately $6 Million in Fines and Restitution

Jared Davis, the co-owner of a binary options company headquartered in Sandusky, Ohio, was sentenced to 30 months in prison on Friday, Jan 27. 2023, by U.S. District Judge Jack Zouhary after Davis pleaded guilty to multiple counts of tax evasion.

According to court documents, between 2012 and 2016, Davis and his business partner ran a binary options investment scheme that regularly committed fraud.  One of the multiple entities involved was Erie Marketing LLC, which was headquartered in Sandusky, Ohio.  The options businesses used various trade names, including OptionMint, OptionKing, and OptionQueen.

A binary option is a concept in which an investor seeks a future payout based on the future price of a given security or commodity.  Binary options are sometimes traded on regulated exchanges that match two investors, one who believes the price of the asset will go up and the other who believes it will go down. 

Court documents state that Davis and his partner used call centers, including those run by Erie Marketing LLC, to solicit individual investors in the scheme to deposit money, often through credit cards, into foreign bank accounts that they controlled.  Court documents state that Davis used this money to pay expenses, which included employee salaries, facility fees, fees to the companies that supplied the trading platforms on which the options businesses operated, and internet marketing services.

As part of the scheme, Davis created several shell companies and used a network of foreign nationals and foreign bank accounts to receive credit card payments.  Court documents state that Davis and his partner ultimately controlled this process and would eventually repatriate the money to a local Ohio bank, using it to pay employees and other expenses.

Davis pleaded guilty in April 2022 to tax evasion after he failed to file personal tax returns for tax years 2014, 2015, and 2016.  According to court documents, Davis had a substantial additional tax due and owing for each of 2014, 2015, and 2016 as a result of the options scheme and made numerous attempts to avoid the payment of taxes.

Judge Zouhary also sentenced Erie Marketing, LLC, to serve three years’ probation and to pay a fine of $4.4 million and restitution to all identified victims (a total the United States expects to be approximately $650,000).  Further, Judge Zouhary sentenced Davis to 30 months in prison, a fine of $300,000, restitution to the IRS, three years of supervised release, and to be jointly and severally liable for the debts of Erie Marketing, LLC. 

The exact restitution will be determined at a later date, but the United States expects that all known victims will be fully repaid from funds already collected. 

This case was investigated by IRS Criminal Investigation (CI) and the Cleveland FBI.  This case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Segev Phillips, Brian McDonough, and Gene Crawford, with guidance from Assistant U.S. Attorney Suzana Koch of the Financial Litigation Program and Victim Witness Specialists Allison Kretz and Gail Hollis.
