got this love thing going on - tyson jost

series: this is getting good now

word count: 1,553

summary: just how many estate sales does it take to find exactly what you're looking for?

Flick was still surprised that Tyson was happy to join her at Estate Sales. For the better part of twelve months, they had been attending just about any Estate Sale they heard of, all because she was being fussy about an engagement ring. It had been a matter of chance that one popped up during their vacation in Aspen during bye week, so they left Nate behind in town and Piper on Aspen Mountain, wore the best clothes they’d brought with them and driven just out of town to yet another ridiculous mansion.

As they pulled up, Flick couldn’t help but crane her head to see it. The photos on Google had made it clear that they were heading to a beautiful home but in the snow, it was even more stunning. In their visits to Estate Sales, they had seen some gorgeous houses; mansions that Flick had never imagined she would step inside of.

“Do you ever think—when we come to these places—that there are people we know who can afford something like this?”

“Mostly I think about how we can’t,” Tyson admitted, stopping the car, and cutting the engine. “I guess Mikko or Nate could.”

They both checked themselves out in the mirrors on the car visors, making sure they looked up to par with the other people walking in; Flick’s friends from back in Vancouver would argue that they definitely did belong in the Estate Sales despite how out of place she always felt. Some of the people they passed on their way in looked very much as if they belonged in the multi-million-dollar home; other looked like they were trying as hard as they could. Flick hoped they were part of the former group, because there was nothing she hated more than having her every movement scrutinised because they’d dressed too casually.

“Person who finds the ugliest thing wins?” Tyson asked just as he did every time they walked into a house.

Flick nodded, always conflicted about judging other people’s tastes. She thought back to the solid gold, diamond encrusted statue someone had of themselves displayed in the foyer and any confliction was gone.

Being so close to home meant that Tyson was recognised a few times, but he took each in stride, laughing and joking with any fans who spoke to him. It warmed Flick’s heart to see fans appreciate him.

She left him by the sports memorabilia, chatting with one of the fans who’d found him, to keep wandering through the house. Everything she passed was gorgeous and she took the time to admire it all even though she knew exactly what her destination was. The jewellery was, of course, her reason for being there and it took her breath away when she finally saw the collection. Every piece was stunning, beyond anything Flick had ever seen. She looked at every piece closely, not just the rings but the earrings, necklaces, and bracelets, too.

“Is there something you’re looking for?” an older lady asked, appearing beside Flick. “I’m not supposed to mingle but jewellery is worth breaking the rules for.”

Flick smiled at her—the owner of the home and the jewellery, presumably—and sighed, “Something that can work as an engagement ring but… isn’t.”

“Looking for your own ring, are you? Not much of a surprise,” the lady teased, kindly.

“He proposed without one and now we’re looking,” Flick explained, unable to stop herself from smiling at the memory. “He’s looking at the sports stuff. The one causing a fuss.”

The lady grinned knowingly, “The cute one with the curly hair? He’s the life of the party.”

“Yeah. He’s good at that.”

“I have something that you might be interested in if you want to come with me.”

Flick’s head titled, intrigued. She followed the woman into the bedroom that had been closed to the visitors of the Estate Sale and into an impressively large walk-in closet. The woman opened a safe hiding in the back of. What she presented to Flick was, somehow, even more beautiful than what had been on display.

“It’s… It’s incredible. Oh my,” Flick said, stunned by what she was seeing. She reached her hadn out unconsciously but pulled it back to her side without touching it. Before her was an oval shaped ruby, set in a circle of diamonds with the rose gold band also containing diamonds.

“It was my great-grandmothers,” the lady explained. “It’s never been used as an engagement ring she just loved the finer things for herself.”

“Oh,” Flick deflated, “but it’s a family heirloom.”

“I don’t have children to pass this on to and I’d much prefer to know the home that it’s gone to. The best part is my mother had thought about it being an engagement ring so—” the woman reached back into the safe and pulled out a second jewellery box “—she had a matching wedding band made. Would you like to try them on?”

Flick stuttered, “Can I—can I get Tyson first, please?”

The woman basically shooed Flick out of the room. She could hardly breathe as she tried to navigate her way back to Tyson. He was still talking to the same man as when she’d left, but he spotted her, and his face lit up.

“Sorry to interrupt,” she said quickly, “but can you come with me for a minute please?”

“Yeah? You find something?”

Flick nodded frantically and stretched out her hand, shaking it so that Tyson would take it. He squeezed her hand and let himself be pulled along. His smile hadn’t left his face, but he was basically bouncing up and down as he walked—Flick’s giddiness was contagious.

The woman was waiting for them in her bedroom; Flick only learnt her name was Marianne when she tried to introduce her to Tyson and realised, she had never known.

Flick pointed to the open ring box in Marianne’s hand—the wedding band box still unopened—so that Tyson would look at it.

“Would you like to try it on now, dear?”

“Yes, please.”

Marianne handed the ring box to Tyson—his hands had started to shake. He had to let go of her hand to take the ring from the box, but Flick’s left hand remained in the air in front of her, also shaking.

It was the first time in their many Estate Sales that a ring had even been tried on and everything was moving in slow motion. Tyson took her hand gingerly, carefully pushing the ring onto her ring finger. Both of them stared down at the ring, their breathing heavy.

“Is this the one?” Tyson asked quietly, his hand curling around hers as he looked up to her face.

“If it’s not too expensive, yeah.”

“Don’t worry about that, alright?” he said, giving her hand a squeeze. “Is this the ring you’ve been looking for?”

“Yeah, Tys, this is the one.”

Tyson’s smile grew even bigger and he looked between Flick and Marianne, saying, “I’m going to talk to Marianne so you should go see if there’s anything else you want.”

Flick moved to take off the ring, not wanting to leave the room with it on. Marianne covered her hands before it could come off, telling her not to worry.

She did, though, because worry was her middle name.

She couldn’t stop touching it or looking at it. Her hand was yet to stop shaking. It would break her heart if it was out of their price range, but it was something that she needed to be prepared for.

Keeping her cool was also important as she tried to distract herself with the other items for sale in the house. Drawing attention to herself was never ideal, much less so when she was walking around with wet eyes wearing an expensive ring she didn’t even own.

She was sure she’d found the ugliest item for sale—a painting with no colour story and no proper anatomy on the woman in it—when Tyson found her.

“You good to go?” he asked, his hand on her lower back.

“We can go?” she asked, the tears finally spilling over.

Tyson reached up to quickly brush away a tear, smiling the whole time, “Yeah, Flick.”

“I have a ring,” she said, her voice shaking. “I have a ring.”

“Feels real, doesn’t it?”

“We’re getting married.”

“I love you. Thank you for wanting to marry me.”

Flick surged up to kiss Tyson, nearly knocking him back into the aforementioned ugly painting. It wasn’t an overtly passionate kiss, more just frequent pecks as she giggled deliriously.

Getting out of the house was a feat in and of itself, between the growing number of people inside, more people recognising Tyson and Flick barely looking up from her hand, but they did eventually make it back to the car and onto the road back to town.

“It’s a ruby, by the way,” Flick said, brushing her finger over the stone.

Tyson laughed, his voice echoing in the car, “Of course you’d buy the one I can’t see.”

“I like red,” she said sheepishly, as if he didn’t already know that it was her favourite colour.

“I’ll break out the glasses again when we get home so I can actually see what I’ve given you.”

the ring (but imagine it's actually antique)

Joshua Jackson interview with "Mr Porter" (2021)

Minutes before Mr Joshua Jackson joins me in a booth for a Friday afternoon drink at a vibey hotel bar in Santa Monica, he’s confronted by his past. Or rather, a woman in her early twenties who is binge-watching Dawson’s Creek, the teen show about a close-knit group of high-school friends coming of age in a sleepy American town, which made Jackson incredibly famous between 1998 and 2003. The series, which also made household names of Ms Michelle Williams and Ms Katie Holmes, went off air 18 years ago, but is now streaming on Netflix, to the bemusement of Jackson, who played lovable rogue Pacey Witter. “This girl was like, ‘Are you...?’ And I’m like, ‘Yes, I am. He got old. I’m sorry to break it to you,’” he says, before ordering an iced tea and a charcuterie board to tide him over until dinner time. “It always surprises me when young people say they’ve just got into Dawson’s Creek. I’m like, ‘Is it a costume drama to you? Do you feel like you’re watching a historical documentary?’”

The idea of a Friends-style reunion episode or a Sex And The City revival feels equally far-fetched to Canadian-born Jackson, now 43 and wearing it well in a pale green linen shirt and tailored linen trousers by Oliver Spencer that complement his fading brown hair and Cali-tanned skin.

“I don’t know why you’d want to [bring it back],” he says. “Nobody needs to know what those characters are doing in middle age. We left them in a nice place. Nobody needs to see that Pacey’s back hurts. I don’t think we need that update.”

And Jackson doesn’t need Dawson’s Creek. From Mr JJ Abrams’ sci-fi series Fringe (2008-2013) to the Golden Globe award-winning The Affair (2014-2019), from Ms Ava DuVernay’s ground-breaking true-crime drama When They See Us (2019) to the recent Ms Reese Witherspoon and Ms Kerry Washington-produced Little Fires Everywhere (2020), he has commanded the small screen – with a collection of dynamic and diverse work – ever since.

His latest role as Mr Christopher Duntsch, the Texas surgeon convicted of gross malpractice when 33 of his patients were left seriously injured after he operated on them and two of them died, in chilling Peacock crime drama Dr Death, is only stepping his career up another gear.

“I’ve never played anyone irredeemable before,” says Jackson, who is joined in the eight-part series (based on the 2018 Wondery podcast of the same name) by Messrs Christian Slater and Alec Baldwin. “He is charming, gregarious and has a high-level intellect, but he’s also a misogynist, probably a sociopath, certainly a narcissist and a complete incompetent who is incapable of seeing himself.”

If Duntsch is terrifying, then Jackson’s portrayal is even more so. The artist formerly known as Pacey is virtually unrecognisable (thanks to prosthetics) in the opening scene, but the real challenge for Jackson was allowing himself to view someone who is so “spectacularly evil” as a human being in order to walk in his shoes. “It’s a more damning portrayal of the man to make him into a human being, rather than just make him the bad guy,” he says. “He really believes he’s the hero, he’s the genius and that he’s the victim, so once I got past my own judgment, all the other things fell into place.”

Jackson might have his pick of stellar roles – and challenges – now, but it has not happened by accident. Take it from someone who has been in the business since landing his first job aged 14 in Disney’s live-action movie series The Mighty Ducks, opposite Brat Pack alumnus Mr Emilio Estevez.

“You try to make it look like it happens accidentally,” he says, “but there is no way to do this and not be ambitious. I’d say I’m extremely ambitious because I’ve been doing this cutthroat job for nearly 30 years. I’m in the pay-off phase of my career now. One of the benefits of surviving for as long as I have is you get to learn from your own mistakes.”

Such as? “I wouldn’t say, ‘I wish I hadn’t done that,’ because it all becomes bricks in a path, but [after Dawson’s Creek] I was not choosy enough about the things I was doing. You get stuck. You start trying to perform the performance you think people are hoping to see you do. I was so used to working all the time that I just worked all the time. There was definitely a conscious moment in my mid-twenties when I realised I wasn’t really enjoying the work that I was doing. My manager at the time just said, ‘Take a breath. You’re burnt out.’”

The turning point came in 2005, when Jackson was offered a role in the two-hander Mr David Mamet play A Life In The Theatre, opposite Sir Patrick Stewart. “God bless him, Patrick could have made my life miserable because I had no idea what I was doing, ” he says. “I hadn’t been on stage since I was a kid and now I was in the West End in over my head. But it reminded me that I actually enjoyed being an actor, that it’s not about the red carpet or travelling around the world. What I really enjoy is working on good material with good people.”

It’s no surprise Jackson’s time on Dawson’s Creek led to a career crisis. From the ages of 19 to 24, he lived with his fellow cast mates in Wilmington, North Carolina, filming day in, day out, in an arrangement he likens to college. “You get to the end and they’re like, ‘Here’s your degree. Go live now. You’re an adult. Go out into the world,’” he says.

But most graduates don’t have to deal with global fame. “It’s transitory. You’re only ever cool for a moment and then you become much less cool. I was always pretty dubious about flatterers,” he says, recalling a time he was stung in London in the mid-2000s. “I went on a date in Hyde Park with a woman whose name I will not use – she was socialite-famous – and she was acting completely bizarre, looking over her shoulder the whole time. I came to find out that she had hired a photographer to follow us through the park and gave a whole story to the tabloids about how I was going to meet her family.”

It was his growing fortune, rather than fame, that caused Jackson the most anxiety. “Suddenly, at 19 years old, I was making more in a week than most of my friends’ parents would make in a year,” he says. “It was lovely to have the money, but it was that feeling of nobody is worth that kind of money. You feel like a fraud and it took me a long time to forgive myself for not being the thing that I was perceived as.”

Born in Vancouver, but raised in Topanga, California, until he was eight (before moving back to Vancouver following his parents’ divorce), Jackson bought his childhood home in 2001 and lives in it today with his wife, British Queen & Slim actor Ms Jodie Turner-Smith, and their 15-month-old daughter.

“My father unfortunately was not a good father or a husband and exited the scene, but that house in Topanga was where everything felt simple, so it was a very healing thing for me to do,” he says. Fast-forward to 2021 and his baby daughter now sleeps in her father’s childhood bedroom. “There was a mural of a dragon on the wall in that room that I couldn’t believe was still there, years later. The owner [who sold him the house] said, ‘I knew it meant a lot to somebody and that they were going to come back for it some day.’”

Becoming a first-time parent during a pandemic sounds stressful, but it afforded Jackson months at home with his wife and child that his normal work schedule wouldn’t have allowed.

“I now recognise how perverse the way that we have set up our society is,” he says. “There is not a father I know who works a regular job who didn’t go back to the office a week later. It’s robbing that man of the opportunity to bond with his child and spend time with his partner.”

Despite his obvious career ambitions, fatherhood has changed Jackson’s priorities in “every possible way”, he says. “It’s 100 per cent changed how I approach my work and my life. That has been made so clear to me in this past year. For me to feel good about what I’m doing day to day, my family has to be the central focus.

“There are plenty of things left for me to do, but now the thing that gets me excited is experiencing the world through my daughter’s eyes. I can’t wait to take her scuba diving. I can’t wait to take her skiing. I can’t wait to read a great book with her. I’m not worried at all she’ll be a wallflower. She’s been a character from the word go.”

Jackson met Turner-Smith, 34, two days after his 40th birthday. He had been single since his 10-year relationship with German actress Ms Diane Kruger ended in 2016. “I was not looking to fall in love again or meet the mother of my child, but life has other plans for you,” he says.

The couple met at a party. Turner-Smith was wearing the same The Future Is Female Ejaculation T-shirt Ms Tessa Thompson’s character, Detroit, wears in the 2018 film Sorry To Bother You. “That’s what I used to break the ice. I shouted, ‘Detroit!’ across the room. Not the smoothest thing I’ve ever done, but it worked. We were pretty much inseparable from the word go. It was a whirlwind romance and I can tell my daughter I literally saw her mother across a room and thought, ‘I have to be next to this woman.’”

A self-confessed “useless” shopper, Jackson gives his wife full credit for his current wardrobe. He is jewellery-free, apart from a wedding band and a gold signet “JJ” ring on his little finger (a present from his wife), and discovered tailored sweatsuits (by Stampd and Reigning Champ) in the pandemic.

“Jodie has influence in the way that a wonderful wife encourages you, through love, to dress well. She was like, ‘We’re going to throw away all the sweatpants from your past and I’m going to get you some that actually make you look like an adult male and you will still feel comfortable around the house,’ and I’m like, ‘What an amazing idea!’ Who knew you could get sweatsuits that actually look good on your body?”

Jackson’s style has evolved, he says, “from slovenly teen to it’s-nice-when-your-clothes-actually-fit-you”. The penny dropped after he auditioned for his former co-star Estevez, who was directing the 2006 Mr Robert Kennedy biopic Bobby. He said to me, ‘You only got this job because I know you. You came in here to play a very well-put together 1960s political operative and you’re wearing jeans and a hoodie.’

“I had to grow up a little bit. We are very much raised in Canada to never, ever show off, so it took me a while to recognise it’s OK to look good when you go out.”

Still, when you’ve grown up in front of the camera, “every pimple literally documented”, and lived (very successfully) to tell the tale, you can probably be forgiven for the odd fashion faux pas.

“I wore a silk Ascot to an event once in Paris and I still have nightmares about it,” he says. “I looked like Fred from Scooby Doo, but you live and learn.”

Blair Adams

On July 5, 1996, Surrey, British Columbia resident Blair Adams withdrew most of his money from his bank account and emptied his safe deposit box of cash, jewellery, gold, and platinum. He then attempted to enter the United States via ferry from Victoria, British Columbia, to Seattle, Washington. Immigration officials flagged him as a possible drug courier due to the large amount of cash he had with him. Once he was found to have convictions on drug and assault charges he was denied entry. In the early morning hours of July 9, he was discovered by Canadian border patrol officers attempting to cross the border on foot at the Pacific Highway Border Crossing. Officials noted Adams had scratches covering his legs and hands. Adams matched the description of a man implicated in an automobile theft, and the vehicle had been discovered abandoned near the Pacific Highway Border Crossing; however, Adams denied involvement, and he was freed on lack of evidence.

Adams managed to enter the United States by car on July 10, 1996, via a Nissan Altima he rented from the Vancouver International Airport. He arrived in Seattle, where he then purchased a roundtrip ticket to Frankfurt, Germany at the Seattle–Tacoma International Airport. Adams had previously worked on a project in Frankfurt for his stepfather's construction company; he had also dated a German woman in Frankfurt, though she later told law enforcement he had never contacted her about visiting. However, Adams subsequently forwent the flight to Frankfurt, and instead traded his credit for a one-way ticket to Washington, D.C.. Upon arriving, he rented a Toyota Camry at Dulles Airport around 6:45 am. Later that morning, on U.S. Route 250 in Troy, Virginia, Adams backed his car into another motorist's vehicle, causing minor damage. The driver of the car told detectives that Adams "seemed nice, but was in a hurry."

Adams arrived in Knoxville, Tennessee sometime on the evening of July 10, 1996,approximately 500 miles (800 km) southwest of Washington, D.C.. The first reported sighting of Adams occurred at a gas station at Strawberry Plains Pike in Knoxville at 5:30 pm. Gerald Sapp, an Interstate Repair Service driver, had been called to the gas station; Adams had told the clerk there that he was having difficulty with his car key, and was unable to enter the car. When Sapp arrived, he realized that the key Adams had attempted to use was for that of a Nissan Altima (the vehicle he had abandoned in Seattle), not the Toyota Camry he was driving. Sapp recalled: "I asked him to look in his pockets. I said, ‘If you drove this thing up here, you gotta have another key in your pockets.’ And he wouldn’t look. So I thought he was nuts. He was bound and determined that he had the key he needed for that car." Sapp arranged to have the car towed to a local repair shop, and dropped Adams off at the Fairfield Inn in Knoxville.

Upon his arrival at the Fairfield Inn, Adams was captured on closed-circuit television footage in the hotel lobby. Adams spent around 40 minutes loitering at the hotel before purchasing a room with US$100; when the hotel clerk attempted to return his change, Adams exited the lobby and walked outside. It was later determined he never entered the room he purchased. According to an autopsy report by the University of Tennessee Medical Center, Adams had sustained many cuts and abrasions. The Knox County Sheriff’s Department has speculated some of the wounds came from fending off an attack. Adams also suffered a violent blow that ruptured his stomach. His official cause of death was ruled sepsis stemming from an abdominal perforation. He also had a wound to his forehead, which police determined was caused by a crowbar or a club. It was also believed Adams had been sexually assaulted, though no DNA evidence was found to confirm this suspicion.
