Kissing leads to necking and necking leads to more necking and more necking leads to screaming and rolling around! No no no no!

In 1947, a man was pulled from his car and was later found in a grisly condition; his leg had been eaten off. Some speculated this was the work of the Jersey Devil as this happened in the woods in New Jersey. ("Jersey Devil", X-Files, TV)

Hello good here I bring you a drawing, look passing context of this in a nutshell I was here on IG watching videos and in that I see a guy with some lightning McQueen sandals and with the song in the background, and in my mind I said to myself "Ha, that would be Craig" and I start thinking and I say, "Hey how would an AU be where Craig will be a racer called Red Racer and he has to pass some events from the movie".

And that's where I got this stupid idea for an AU Hahaha, I did design and all of them, and to make some things make sense I would change it slightly, because well, here they are humans not cars, here cars will only be used in some parts, because I think it's very obvious that some scenes could easily be of someone running or switching.

HOLAAAAA buenas aquí les traigo un dibujo, miren pasando contexto de esto en pocas palabras estaba yo aquí en Instagram viendo videos y en eso veo a un chico con unas sandalias de rayo McQueen y con la canción de fondo, y en mi mente me dije a mi misma "Ja, ese sería Craig" y me pongo a pensar y digo, "Oye cómo sería un AU en dónde Craig será un corredor llamado Red Racer y tiene que pasar algunos acontecimientos de la película"

Y ahí fue donde se me viene está idea toda estúpida para un AU Jajaja, está hice diseño y todos en si, y para que algunas cosas tengan sentido se cambiaría ligeramente, por qué bueno pues, aquí son humanos no Autos, aquí los autos solo se utilizará en sierras partes, por qué creo que es muy obvio que algunas ecenas podrían ser fácilmente de alguien corriendo o cambiándo

���️ WIP WEDNESDAY ✍️

Thanks for the tag @neonshrike

Tagging @midnightkens @sobeautifullyobsessed @gender-kenvy @superprofesh and anyone else who wants to share a WIP!

Okay so since I've been on my Court Gentry nonsense, I'm going to pick the WIP related to him...where Sierra Six (movie/book character mix) has to team up with an autonomous thief dubbed the Unseen when the CIA decide bringing that particular asset into their web would prove to be quite beneficial, especially for the task at hand. And good ol' Court is not a fan of this plan. The mission they go on gets pretty crazy.

Just another Thursday for the Gray Man.

The Gray Man did not like this plan.  He thought this was a terrible idea, and the people at Langley were crazy for even considering partnering with threats like von Arnim and the Unseen. 

Gregory von Arnim was scum, and that fact was evident in every portion of his file.  Fiztroy supplied him with all the intel the CIA had about the man, and Court had a hard time digesting some of the things he read.  This guy seemed to have a hand in a lot of jars.  He looked nice and tidy on the outside, but he left a trail of corrosion in his wake.  And apparently the Unseen was on his payroll.  Which honestly pissed Court off.

The Unseen was a legend in the world in which Sierra Six worked.  Of course he had heard of her.  Who hadn’t at this point?  The only thing known for certain about her was she’s a Caucasian female.  Everything else was speculation, whether educated guesses or fantasization. One such speculation that always made him laugh was how the Unseen placed her victims under a spell and took things from them with their verbal consent.  That one had to be the craziest, but there were some that weren’t too far away from taking first in that contest.  

Still, Court mused as he cautiously approached the rendezvous point, there had to be some merit to the legend since the actual person behind it was off everyone’s radar, despite efforts to pin her down.  Even Fitzroy admitted that the Unseen was one of the more peculiar mysteries known to the agency, and many speculate the Unseen wasn’t one person but a collection of women who managed to pull off heists together.

That was until the CIA started looking for the Unseen not as a target but as an asset and a sleazy German-American came forward and said the Unseen was in fact a singleton female in his employ for eight years.  Even if Fitz hadn’t told Six to be careful around the Unseen, he would already be keeping his guard up just because of how shady von Arnim was.  If he was, why wouldn’t his best asset be too?

Court once admired the Unseen for what she could do and what she represented.  He suspected the Unseen truly had to be one person if not two or three women because all her missions had the same MO.  There were a lot of the same threads of figurative DNA in each that pointed to one person.  It’s in the same way her targets never knew they were hit until later.  It was in the way there always seemed to be a moment of distraction and even some chaos that just had to be when the theft took place.  It was in how so many of her missions carried some level of justice, involving targets that if Court could choose for himself, he would pick too.  To him, the Unseen was out trying to do some good in a crazy, shitty world.

The presence of Gregory von Arnim blew that theory to hell.

There was one thing about this plan he could appreciate which was that the Unseen refused to cooperate unless she solely worked with Sierra Six.  No handlers, no mics, no tracking systems on their person or surrounding them, no tagalongs.  Just two singletons forced to work together for a short time.  Things get less complicated that way.

The rendezvous point was a place of his choosing per the suggestion of the Unseen.  He suspected it was some kind of olive branch gesture since they had to be unlikely partners for a while, and he accepted the gesture but not the sentiment behind it.  He didn’t know her.  Why should he trust her from the get-go?  The place he chose was a bit cliche, but at least it was in neutral territory.  A park bench, specifically a park bench in St. Anne’s Park, Dublin, Ireland.  His choice for neutral territory wasn’t another olive branch gesture either.  It was just smart.  Neutral territory kept both of them safe, especially since they were very much active in their respective fields.

Fitz told him to look for a woman about Six’s age with brown curly hair, and the Unseen was told to pick a bench near the Roman tower that overlooked the duck pond.  The morning spring air carried a particular chill with it as a fog settled over the park.  It made looking for his connection a little difficult, but he kept his eyes peeled as he shoved his hands deep into the pockets of his navy coat.

It didn’t take as long as he feared to find a woman matching Fitzroy’s description - although a vague one - sitting on a bench near the tower with one leg crossed over the other, wearing jeans and a maroon coat, and reading a book.  No…no, not reading.  If she was reading, she was gazing over the edge of her book for any passersby more than the words on the page.  This, Court realized, was the Unseen in the flesh.

Before he could take a moment to study her before approaching, her eyes spotted him watching her, and they lingered curiously for a moment before she adjusted to a position more friendly for running away and placed her book in the bag resting beside her on the bench.  Court approached the bench and sat down on the opposite end.  

Both just stared straight ahead.

As part of the prearranged mandate they had set up via texting through the RedNumber app for approach and identification, since he was last to arrive, she was first to speak.  “Did you have a lot of turbulence on your flight over?”

Court exhaled slowly upon hearing the correct initiation phrase.  She’s American; that was a surprise to him.  In his line of work, it was more common to hear foreign accents than to hear a piece of home, but this detail did not put him at ease.  If anything, it just made him more wary for the time being.  He gave the correct reply, “If there was any turbulence, it just rocked me to sleep.”

The Unseen hummed thoughtfully as she continued to gaze ahead.  To anyone listening in, the sound could easily be a reaction to his comment, but Six knew better.  She was getting a read on him through his voice just like he did her.  They sat in silence for another moment before she casually commented, “I’m not exactly up to speed on proper teamwork procedure here, so I don’t know what would be next for you.  Being from where you work and all,” she shrugged.  He didn���t offer a reply.  “Am I allowed to at least ask for your name?”

To that, he did give a reply.  “Six.”

For the first time, the Unseen turned to face him, and her glance was amused, one eyebrow raised.  “Peculiar name you’ve got there.  Your family really big math nerds or something?” 

Court didn’t turn her way as he answered flatly, “It’s a code name.” 

“Oh this’ll be interesting,” she mused as she faced forward again and sighed.  “You don’t have a sense of humor.”

“I do, but you don’t have clearance to hear it.”  She hummed again, and he could hear the grin in it this time.  Moving on from it though, he commented, “We also have a job to do, and I prefer to focus on that and get it done as efficiently and quickly as possible.”

“Fair enough,” she nodded in agreement, and Court finally turned and looked at her.  The Unseen’s brown curls that fell well past her shoulders framed a face with freckles and big blue-green eyes.  Even though she was sitting, he guessed her to be six inches shorter than he was. Plump yet athletic.  Six suspected she had to be athletic to some degree in order to do what she does without getting caught.  She was pretty, but average just enough to blend into the crowd.  Rather like him, her description could fit a lot of people.  Except those eyes seemed to stand out to him the most. 

“My,” she barely hid a grimace as she said the next word, “employer says you have all the information I need, and my job is to come with and help you execute a plan.”

“And we’re on a deadline,” he added.

“Of course we are.”

He continued as if she hadn’t spoken.  “I need the device in my hands by Friday.”

She nodded again before standing.  “That gives us a little bit of wiggle room,” she told him as she started walking off, and he quickly stood and followed.  “I don’t plan on needing to use a contingency plan, but in my line of work, contingency plans are important.”

“Where are we going?”

“Somewhere we can actually talk.  If your employers listened to my conditions, then you’re the only one I need to wait for, and since you have a deadline, we need to get started.  I trust you’re not wearing a wire, right?  Because if you are, you’re on your own.  I said you and no one else.”

Court shook his head.  “I’m not wearing a wire.  As far as my end is concerned, it’s just you and me on this.  They’re used to me not checking in periodically anyway.  Nature of the job.”

“Sounds nice,” the Unseen mumbled with a sigh.

“Also I’m not calling you The Unseen.”

She snorted, but the look on her face said it was not the first time she had come across this particular statement.  “I did not pick the name.  You’re familiar with code names, right?  Six.”  She shook her head, but her eyes did not match the amused smile on her face.  They looked sad.  “You could drop the The if you prefer.  Many do that.  The only other code name I have to offer that you could use is Invis.”

Court made a face as he gave her a questioning look.  “Invis?”

“Short for Invisible.  I didn’t pick that one out either, and only a certain few use that one for me.  I’m getting the feeling that’s the most common thing about code names.  You never get to pick one for yourself, and people basically use whatever they want.  Anyway, that’s all I got for you unless you make one up yourself.”

“Invis is fine.”

Figured that now that I've got a bookblr, I should make a post about the Read the World Challenge I'm doing! I'm reading a book primarily set in every country, doing my best to focus on authors from said country, though I will read diaspora authors if that's not feasible. Also some of the books from early on were from diaspora authors because I was pulling from books I had already read; I'll likely read more books from those countries in the future if I can. I've got 52 countries so far, and I'll list the titles and countries under the cut
