Peppermint tea
Here is 2300-ish words little thing inspired by the current events. This is all fluff, meant to feel like a warm cup of tea. It's about the reader willing to make Noah feel better about his voice issues. It's not set in the present nor in any specific time.
(***) are omissions.
Not betaed.
I wish Noah a super fast recovery and all the good things in this world <3 The band and everybody else did a great job in Denver and Salt Lake City. They all deserve the best!
🌿
I slowly, quietly climbed inside the tour bus, trying to make as little sound as possible, careful not to hit the walls with the big backpack I was carrying on one of my shoulders. I found Bryan waiting for me sitting at the table in the main lounge, working at his laptop in the 9:30 pm darkness, with a white cup of coffee reflecting the light coming from the street poles outside.
The window he was sitting at was the only one in the whole bus with the curtains open. Hearing that someone was approaching, he lifted his eyes to check who it was. When he noticed it was me, his tired, hard eyes softened. His black circles were evident enough though, impossible to hide in the bright light coming from the screen in front of him, which only accentuated them. 
“Hey y/n,” he greeted me with a warm smile. “I’m glad you made it. All good?”
“All good,” I half-whispered.
I walked by his side and looked at the screen. He was editing a video, apparently a pretty complicated one given the look of the project on Premiere. I looked at the still image in the program monitor. It was a clip showing a close up on Noah, beaming at the cheering crowd at the end of one of their songs. 
I pursued my lips, shifted my stance. “Is it coming along nicely?” I asked. 
Bryan leaned back on his seat and stretched one arm behind his head.
“Yeah…” He rewinded the video, clicked play and we watched together the first 10 seconds of the clip he was working on. “This is for Instagram, it’s gonna be huge, hopefully,” he commented. “I took some sick shots with the drone.”
He navigated through some folders on the hard drive which was lying nearby on the table and opened a video for me, audio off. It was indeed an amazing video, with the flames and all. We watched it in silence, then Bryan took a sip of his coffee.
“Do you want something to drink, or something to eat? Grab whatever you want,” he whispered, putting his laptop in standby and closing its lid.
“No, thanks. I’m fine. I ate something before coming here.”
Bryan nodded and then glanced outside. Matt, Jesse and Jolly were peering inside through the glass. They all waved at me. Bryan gestured to them that he was coming, mouthing a “just a second”.
“I’m going for a drink with them,” he said, rubbing one eye and slowly standing up. I took a step back and made some room for him. “Noah won’t even notice we’re leaving.”
“How is he?” I asked. Bryan was now standing right in front of me. Outside the guys were talking to each other, looking at the street.
Bryan took a deep breath and looked to the side. He shook a half empty bottle of water standing on the table and it took him a couple seconds to answer, lifting his eyes back on me and pulling out a faint smile. 
“He’ll probably be very happy to see you,” he said softly. It was not an answer to my question, but I accepted it as such.  “I think he’s back there still working on the audio track for this video,” he added, looking at the closed door leading to the corridor passing through the bunk beds and reaching the studio room at the rear end of the tour bus. He regarded me for a second more. “See you later, y/n. I’ll text you when we come back," he smiled. "I’m so happy you came."
He walked past me, grabbed his jacket and then stepped out of the bus to join the others, closing the door behind his back. It was now just me and Noah in the bus, even if he didn’t know I was there yet. I slid the backpack off my shoulder and placed it in an empty place on the sofa. While stripping off my jacket, my eyes fell on the kitchen counter. There were two boxes of tea, chamomile and peppermint, and a jar of honey with a spoon resting on top of the lid. I sighed at the sight of it and went to examine the teas.
I knew all about those. Noah had told me about all kinds of remedies he had tried, during our last phone call that morning. He’d thought I was on some errands in a mall, but instead I was at the airport, sitting in a café at the departures, ready to leave for my one hour flight to join them for a couple days while they were on tour. I wanted to surprise him and I’d organized everything with Matt as soon as I had known about Noah’s issues and I got the confirmation that I could get four days off from my job. I wanted to offer him my support the best way possible, being physically present. 
Matt was very glad I could come. 
-
“He’s losing it,” he had told me that morning, in hushed tones, when I called him after hearing from Noah, and I could only trust his account after having spoken with the subject of our conversation himself. “He’s on fucking edge since last night. He couldn’t sleep. He’s not eating,” Matt had continued, adding some concerning details about Noah’s condition. “I’m so glad you can make it. So, so glad about it. He really needs… something… right now. We canceled the show in *** and thank God he now has two days to recover, but he’s so stressed about what if he can’t get better in time. Oh god, he’s impossible to even talk with!” Some frustration was seeping through Matt’s words. “I have my plate full as well! I can’t deal with that and him at the same time!”
Matt had sighed on the phone. He and Noah had always got along very well, but being two strong personalities, sparks would easily fly in moments of tension.
“But…” Matt had figuratively taken a step back. “I’m sorry y/n. I- I don’t mean to sound harsh… You know him, more or less you also know how it is in this kind of situation. He gets so hard on himself and when the problem’s basically just him he’s impossible to reason with- Hold on, he’s coming.”
I’d heard Noah calling Matt. Matt had probably been pacing outside around the tour buses while they were on a brief break at some gas station on their way to ***. Noah had approached him and presumably asked who was on the phone.
“Brenda,” Matt had lied to him. I had no clue who this Brenda was. She could have been his dog sitter for all I knew, or his chiropractor. After a couple seconds of silence I heard Noah’s voice again. He announced that he was going to try to take a nap for a couple hours. Matt had acknowledged that and Noah had left.
“Oh, thank God,” Matt had whispered on the phone once Noah was out of earshot.
“Nice," I smiled. "It seems I’ve managed to convince him to rest. It took me fifteen minutes before calling you. You owe me now, Matt,” I jested.
Matt had let out a sigh of relief. “Take my house, take my cars, take whatever you want y/n. Thank you!”
-
Unfortunately that nap proved to be kind of fruitless for Noah. In the late afternoon he had texted me saying that he had slept very poorly, waking up even more tired than before. They were reaching *** and so was I. He thought I was heading back home after work, but in reality I was in a taxi on the same highway they were traveling on.
I placed the tea box I was rolling around in my hands down on the counter. I was excited to see Noah, I couldn’t wait, but I was also kind of nervous. I was not sure about what his reaction would be when he saw me appear in front of him without notice, especially in these circumstances. He was kind of like a wounded animal right now, on edge, as Matt had said, and for sure not in his best mood. If he was actually working on some music, there was a chance he was a bit more relaxed, but again, I was not sure.
I finger brushed my hair back and pressed the button to open the sliding door to the corridor leading to the bunkbeds and the studio. I instantly noticed that this area of the bus felt a couple degrees cooler.
The A/C was on. Some dim light poured from a wall lamp in the back lounge into the corridor. 
I saw Noah’s silhouette in the distance, sitting at the small table at the very end of the bus, giving his back to the room, wearing a pair of headphones. All was silent except from a small tapping sound. He was tapping his fingers on the table, counting beats or keeping some rhythm. I shouldn't have worried about talking in hushed tones with Matt, Noah was not going to hear me unless he turned and saw me or I touched him. He was probably going to get a heart attack if I couldn’t think of some way to not scare him.
I closed the door behind me and then slowly walked by the bunk beds on the soft carpet. Most of the beds had the curtains drawn, even if there was nobody there. I spotted Noah’s bed among the other ten. Apparently he was sleeping above someone else in the only compartment with just two bunk beds instead of the usual three. I recognized his bed because of one of his Tokyo Ghoul shirts lying on the pillow.
I took my last couple steps and stopped at the threshold of the studio room. I could now see Noah better. He was in front of his MacBook, working on a Logic project. He was leaning on the table with both of his arms, with a cup of tea by his left - I had noticed the green tag of the peppermint tea bag hanging from the rim of the cup. He was wearing a hooded hoodie and something that looked like a scarf was hanging from one of his knees, folded in a heap on his lap. He stopped tapping on the table to take a sip of tea, and then resumed his work, now also bobbing his head keeping the tempo.
I leaned on the door frame and took my phone out from my pocket. 
“Is that peppermint tea good?”
I texted him.
I heard his phone buzz in his pants a nanosecond after. It took him a good minute to pause his work and flip his phone out. He opened the message and froze, staring at it. I saw him lean back on his seat and slowly pull his headphones down his neck.
Oh. I had to be extremely quiet now.
He sent me a reply.
“I am drinking it right now actually...?”
I had to stifle a small laugh.
“I know :) And you should wear that scarf... It’s not gonna help your throat if you use it to keep your knees warm.”
Noah jolted. He looked to his left, back at his phone, and then finally he turned and looked over his shoulder. He saw me leaning at the door, smiling from ear to ear.
“y/n!” he exclaimed, two huge eyes setting on me. He quickly stood up, dragging the headphones with him, making the scarf fall on the ground and getting his legs tangled in some cables. “Oh shit,” he had to glance down at the cables to quickly disentangle himself as best as he could. “y/n!” he exclaimed again, incredulous. His voice faltered, cracked. “How- Who- I mean, when did you arrive?!” 
I was skipping toward him. He stepped around the sofa and we met in the middle of the room in a bone crushing hug. 
“Oh my god!” he exclaimed against my shoulder, almost lifting me up in his embrace, squeezing me tightly. “Oh my!” He sounded so happy, almost in tears. 
I was in tears. I’d felt my eyes prickle the moment I saw him standing up and coming towards me, the moment I saw his sunken eyes and his tired, lackluster appearance lighten up at my sight.
“Noah!” I sighed by his ear, and I didn’t know what to add right there and then. His hair was tickling the side of my face. He was breathing on my shoulder in big gasps, warming up the skin under my sweater, and his hands were moving around my back, unable to find a place where to rest. He was all around me. The very air I breathed carried his scent. 
He gave me a last squeeze and pulled back a little to look at my face, which was probably pretty red and also tears stricken by now. His eyes too were glittering in the dim light as he looked at me, perhaps still a bit incredulous of the fact that I was there.
“...How?” he asked again, still beaming.
“Matt and the others knew. I took a flight this morning and - ” I waved a hand in the air. “Well,  now I’m here!”
Noah stared at me, looking at a loss for words. 
“I came for you,” I added, trying to maintain the smile on my lips. “I can't stand knowing that you're not feeling well and not being able to be there with you.”
Noah took a shallow, shaky breath. He opened his mouth, but didn’t say anything. I saw various emotions cross his face in just a couple seconds. 
I tiptoed and reached for the side of his neck, since I couldn’t properly cup the side of his face when he was standing at his full height. He took the cue and bent a little to receive my kiss, allowing me to take him to the sectional, having him sit down, climb beside him and dispel all of his worries at least for a while, covering him in kisses and cuddles that melted him down in a matter of minutes.

Head canons for when Spencer got shot? Both times… like, taking care of him till he is allowed back at work.
Tumblr media
i love him, and here's the hc
tw: gun shot injury and mentions of blood
Poutiest baby, similar to when he's sick
Like he has his bottom lip permanently sticking out
he absolutely hates hospitals, and he tries to get out asap by challenging the doctors and providing lots of facts
like he is a nightmare, okay? i love him, but he's out of his bed walking around the hospital way before he's allowed and complaining about how long he's going to have to be off work
but he's still the cutest ever
The leg injury is a bit worse with a longer recovery than when he was shot in the neck
5x01
and still hurts when the weather is cold
you gotta get all his favorite snacks and movies, even though he tells you not to make a fuss
but he does insist on lots of cuddling because 'it releases oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin...'
sex is difficult so he sticks to fingering you and you give him head
because he can't really go anywhere for a little while, your dates are either at your shared apartment, or you drive him around, get fast food, and then drive somewhere pretty where you can see the sunset
he's very insistent on being independent and tries to do most of his normal routine
one of the things he can't do as well as he used to do is wash his hair, which you love doing anyway
and then you braid it
which always puts him to sleep
just before he goes to sleep or randomly in the night, he'll mumble out the quietest little 'thank you'
he started off by complaining about not being at work because Hotch won't even let him consult, but he decides it's really not bad that he gets to stay at home
and while you're consulting on calls, he'll listen in and read the case files.
he also writes post-it notes for you to read out.
everyone knows because it would be kind of strange if you suddenly knew facts about the climate change in Denver.
and then he tells you that you're so smart
of course, he's excited to go back to work, but he's more excited about how you've grown ever closer to each other because of it
9x24
it's absolutely terrifying
much more than any other time you've seen him hurt because it really was touch-and-go
the hospital waiting room is nothing but tears from you, JJ, Alex, and Penelope
it's such a devastating pain to be without any information for so long
and all you can think about was how he reached out to touch you while he was still conscious
and then there's the blood which you can still see on your hands even if it isn't really there
it's so much worse when the adrenaline runs out and you can feel every second slowly tick past
at least if he were kidnapped, there would be something you could do but you're so helpless
and then they tell you he's going to be okay and it's the best news you've ever received
everyone says he's lucky but you feel like the luckiest person ever
he cries so hard when you're there when he wakes up because he thought he'd never see you again
and he makes a dumb joke but it's a 'shut up and kiss me' moment
in front of everyone (which isn't something you do) but it really doesn't matter
he sleeps a lot back at home
and you have to force him to drink water because it's not something he likes doing
it's slightly easier than the other time he got shot but he's not cleared for work which gives you two the chance to try out some new things that you've been putting off because of how much you work, like new cafes and libraries
it's hard once he can go back to work because you know much more about how either of you could be gone in an instant
but it means much less walking into buildings with your vest off if you're not 100% sure you'll be walking out

Pain of a Crush ~Cale Makar 4+1
Summary: The 4 times physical therapy brought you together, and the one time away from it. After Cale hurts his wrist, the last thing he expected was to run into an injured figure skater at physical therapy, then keep showing up when he didn't have to anymore just to see her.
Warnings: None
Author's note*: I have now ruptured both my Achille's tendons. I have been through intense physical therapy for it, and have not been able to jump on the ice since my first surgery. What the reader goes through is from my own experience with the injury.
Enjoy!
Master List
Tumblr media
Cale hated it there. He knew he had to go, but that still didn’t mean he had to like it. After taking a particularly bad slash to his right wrist, Cale ended up in physical therapy while he worked his way back to playing condition. His injured wrist already had him out for three weeks, and he was just looking to get stronger and get back to his team. The physical therapy office he went to was one that all the athletes in Denver frequented at one point or another in their careers. Mostly everyone kept to themselves; working out their injuries to get back to their team. He did not know what to make of this one girl though who seemed to sweep in and catch his eye…or hand when he accidently tripped her because of her crutches. 
1.
You looked up at the building, having just been dropped off by your uber. This injury just came with pleasant inconveniences, like not being able to drive yourself anywhere. That was what physical therapy is for though, as you were constantly reminded by your mom every time you text her upset about your current situation. Physical therapy was so much more than that though; it’s a way for you to get back on the ice. You felt like such an idiot when it all happened at first. You were an Olympic figure skater, how could you forget to jump out of an off ice training jump, snapping your Achilles tendon completely in half? You had done the move about a thousand times, why now? 
It’s not like you were missing competitions at least, having retired from the circuit two years prior with an Olympic medal. Unfortunately now though, you were touring with Stars on Ice when it happened, and had to have surgery. Returning to your hometown of Denver, Colorado wasn’t what you had in mind when you were asked to tour around the country with all your friends. Here you were though, ready to start your recovery process so you could get back on the ice. “Ah, Miss Y/L/N! Welcome. I’m Gerald Jones and I will be handling your P.T. How are you doing today?” an elderly yet very physically fit man approached you with a caring smile. 
“I’m good, thanks. How are you?” you asked, letting go of your crutch to shake his hand.
“Great, thanks for asking. Let's get you over to the exam room so I can see what we’re working with and get you started on a regiment. Right this way,” he motioned for you to follow as he held open another set of doors for you. Stepping further inside the building, you noticed the gym set up, with crazy work out machines you would never know how to use.  There was a side that also seemed a little tamer, with what looked like leg exercise machines and equipment; you figured you would be there mostly. There were also a few other professional athletes milling about, some with trainers, others doing their own exercises. Gerald noticed you taking in your surroundings. “We like to keep spaces open for our past clients, in case they feel like something is wrong or need an adjustment to a workout. Which is something you will also have access to once we feel you have completed your therapy.” he said. 
“That’s awesome. It’s hard to come back from some injuries,” you said softly, knowing yours was one of those. Your surgeon had told you it was possible that you would never skate again, and you were determined to prove him wrong. Gerald led you into a side room and asked for you to take off your walking boot…that you haven’t actually been able to walk in yet. He examined your ankle and made you feel positive about your recovery time. 
“Your surgeon did a great job. We’ll have you walking and running in no time!”
“What about skating?” you asked, and he gave you a kind smile.
“We’re going to do our best to get you back out there,” he said, and you nodded, knowing he couldn’t promise you a full recovery. “Alright Y/N, ready to begin?” this time you smiled, looking forward to ditching the crutches and having two feet on the ground. As you crutched your way toward a more open area of floor, you were busy intently listening to Gerald explain what you would be working on when your right crutch seemed to snag on something and throw you off balance. You automatically reached out with your arm, grabbing the nearest object to you as Gerald turned around to try to balance you. You hadn’t put any real pressure on your ankle yet, and you didn’t want to set it down with all your momentum going forward. Another hand grasped your forearm while an arm caught around your waist. 
“I am so sorry, I wasn’t paying attention,” a voice spoke up next to you as Gerald gathered your fallen crutch. Looking toward the voice, you were met with an awkward smile and bright red cheeks. 
“Nice reflexes Makar. That wrist feeling better?” Gerald asked as he handed you back your crutch. The guy who had caught you helped you straighten back up.
“It is, ya,” he responded, rolling the wrist you had just been holding on to. 
“Oh my God. Did I hurt you?!” you rushed out, now concerned that your near death moment caused him pain. 
“I tripped you and you’re the one on crutches, and you’re asking if I’m okay?” he chuckled, and his question made you blush. You shrugged. “I’m fine. I hope you’re okay.” You nodded. Gerald cleared his throat softly, and you could have died of embarrassment, realizing you’ve been staring at this beautiful stranger. 
“Y/N Y/L/N, this is Cale Makar. He’s actually a hockey player on the Avs,” Gerald introduced you. Of course you knew who he was now. You may have been traveling for skating, but you didn’t live under a rock. “Cale, Y/N is a figure skater.”
“You competed in the Olympics right?” Cale asked, smiling at you. 
“Guilty,” you said in a small voice. 
“That’s awesome! Well you’re in good hands with Mr. Jones, he knows what he’s doing,” Cale said, then lowered his voice dramatically. “Just don’t tell him that cause it’ll go to his head.” You giggled.
“Okay kid, get back to work. Let’s get you walking Y/N.”  Both you and Cale smiled at each other, and you may have slightly admired how his cheeks were a bit rosy. 
2.
The following week you were back at physical therapy, slowly walking on a treadmill. Gerald was adjusting your foot every other second, as you kept wanting to step on the outside of your foot instead of laying your foot flat when you stepped. “Y/N, you really need to stop shifting the way you're stepping. You’re too young to not correct this,” he said kindly, though you knew from the poke he gave your ankle that he was really trying not to sound aggravated. 
“It just hurts still. It’s not comfortable,” you tried to explain, still keeping a lot of tension in your upper body as you tried to hold a majority of your wait up on the arms of the treadmill. 
“I know it does, but you need to learn again. Trust that I wouldn’t have you doing this if your tendon couldn’t take it,” he said sympathetically. 
“I do trust you,” you said with a sigh as he corrected your foot placement yet again. 
“Good. Now show me you know how to walk,” he said, standing up in front of your machine and looking over your shoulder. You rolled your eyes slightly, though you were trying to keep your foot in the correct position. Glancing at Gerald, you saw him smirk for a moment, then he looked at you with a smile too big for you to trust. 
“Should I be scared?” you asked, earning a chuckle from the elder man.
“No. I do need to help someone for a moment though. I’m going to send someone over here to keep you in line,” he winked, then was off. ‘Ok, weird,’ you thought, but kept on trying to walk correctly. 
“Doesn’t that hurt worse?” a deep voice came from behind you, and you almost twisted your good ankle to see if it was who you thought it was. Cale was watching your foot, though he smiled shyly up at you when he noticed you turned. 
“Everything kinda hurts right now,” you spoke softly, feeling your cheeks heat up. “Shouldn’t you be focused on your own recovery?”
“Gerald asked me to come over here and make sure you weren’t cheating,” he smiled at you, sitting in front of you while he did his own exercises for his wrist. Gerald had gone over to Cale, telling him to go talk to you. When Cale asked why, Gerald had just winked and said you needed some motivation to walk correctly again. 
“I’m not cheating. This just sucks,” you pointed to your foot that was back to rolling on the side. 
“That seems highly uncomfortable,” he chuckled, though stopped when you grimaced while trying to fix it. 
“You have no clue,” you smiled at him, though he could see the exhaustion and wear on you from therapy. “How’s your wrist?”
“Better everyday. I got the okay to practice with the team next week,” he smiled.
“That’s great, congrats!” you said, though a little sad that might mean you wouldn’t see him around anymore. Cale  nodded, then asked the question that left a pit in your stomach the moment you injured yourself. 
“When do you get to return to skating?” he asked, sincerely curious. Your face fell for a second as you stumbled on the treadmill, your ankle not fully cooperating. Cale looked at you with concern in his eyes, his question almost being answered by the action. 
“They don’t know if I’ll be able to,” you said, your voice barely above a whisper. “At least not jump again.” you added, trying to hold back the tears. When the doctors told you that you may never skate again, you balled but then became oddly defiant. Who were they to say what you could or couldn’t do. But as time passed, and you couldn’t even keep your foot flat on the ground when you walked, the more you kept dreading that they were right. Cale could see your eyes become watery, and he felt horrible for being the one who asked the question. 
“I’m sorry I asked…” he started apologizing, but you cut him off with a shake of your head.
“No, no, it wasn’t you. I’m just a little emotional over it. I’m sorry, you were asking an honest question,” you tried to smile at him and Cale sent you a small smile back. 
“Well, we can’t have that,” Cale sighed dramatically, causing you to giggle. “You walk normal and…” he trailed off as he looked around, spotting a coffee cup by your water. “And I’ll bring you a cup of coffee next week,” he beamed at you.
“That’s not necessary,” you couldn’t help the smile on your face. 
“I almost made you cry, I think it is,” he chuckled and you laughed with him. Over the next ten minutes as the two of you continued to talk, you were slowly able to get your foot flat on the ground. 
“Looking great Y/L/N! Why don’t you go over to the table and we’ll finish out your stretches before you go,” Gerald said as he walked back over and stopped the treadmill. You nodded. 
“Thanks for the motivation Cale,” you smiled and waved as you walked off. 
“One coffee coming up,” he replied as Gerald eyed him comically. 
“You’re done after today son,” the older man said with a raised eyebrow, causing Cale’s cheeks to flush.
“Um ya…I, um, I thought you said I could still come though,” he struggled, rubbing the back of his neck. 
“She’ll be back on Monday at 10am,” Gerald said with a wink and starting to make his way to you. “I would also like a coffee” he yelled over his shoulder. 
3. 
Cale had just finished up practice Monday, more than thankful to be back on the ice with the team. Checking his phone, he saw it was 9am and quickly showered and changed so he could go get the coffee he owed you…and Gerald. As he called out his goodbyes to the men left in the locker room, JT got his attention. “Lunch?” the ginger asked, and Cale shook his head. 
“I have to get to PT,” he said, not thinking. 
“I thought you were done with that?” Gabe asked. Cale opened his mouth to answer, but no words came out, his flushed cheeks growing a bit more red. 
“Ya, I did but…”
“But there’s a different reason you’re going, isn’t there?” The captain pried as Cale awkwardly waved off his comment and tried to bolt for the door. 
“Aw, young love at the physical therapist’s office,” he heard EJ shout as the door closed behind him. 
Cale picked up three coffees and made his way to the PT office. He arrived a little after 10, immediately spotting you and Gerald. You were back on the treadmill with Gerald having to tap your foot every so often so it would be flat again, but this time you were walking without hanging on to the sides of the treadmill. “No crutches today?” Cale asked as he approached. You turned to smile at him, stumbling a bit in the process but Gerald held out his arm for you to lean on. 
“She’s getting there,” Gerald answered with a chuckle, taking his coffee from Cale. He stopped your machine and helped you off and over to a seat for a quick break. 
“As promised,” Cale smiled at you.
“Thank you,” you whispered, taking a small sip. 
“Okay Y/L/N, I think it’s time,” Gerald spoke up as he wrapped your ankle in a supportive brace and put your shoe back on. 
“Time for what?” you asked, furrowing your eyebrows. 
“No more treadmill. You’re going to walk around the track without your crutches,” he said, patting your foot as if to say ‘off you go.’
“Really? By myself?” you asked, excited though slightly nervous. Gerald smiled and motioned to Cale.
“I’m sure Makar wouldn’t mind keeping you company. Just take your time and walk slowly. When it starts to hurt, sit for a second. I think we’ll start with 4 laps today since you’ve been doing about a mile on the treadmill anyways,” the older man said, and Cale stood to help you up. He set his coffee down and took yours, then held out his hands for you with an encouraging smile. You gently place your hands in his and let him pull you up, steading yourself in his grip. “Remember your foot placement. Slow and steady,” Gerald said and you nodded. Walking on the treadmill was one thing, but now being without your crutches off of it felt weird. You took a few steps, smiling to yourself at your progress and turned to Cale. 
“Can we take the coffee?” you whispered and he chuckled, grabbing both your coffees and slowly walking by your side. 
“How is it? Without your crutches,” Cale asked as you got to the indoor track. 
“I feel like I’m missing something,” you giggled, taking a sip of your coffee and trying not to concentrate on the burn in your calf from the tendon. 
“Well, you seem to be doing great,” Cale smiled at you. You could feel yourself flush a bit under his gaze. 
“Don’t you have your own workouts to do?” you asked, and it was Cale’s turn to flush. 
“I can do them later,” he said, rubbing the back of his neck.
“I don’t want to keep you from them though,” you said with a slight frown.
“You aren’t!” Cale said a little too quickly and you raised an eyebrow at him. “I did it mostly this morning at the rink,” he tried to cover.
“And you still came here?” you questioned. 
“I owed you coffee,” you shyly smiled, Cale hoping it would come out more as a joke and you would stop asking before he had to admit he was only there to see you. 
“We could have gotten coffee after,” you said softly, diverting your gaze from him as you came up on your second lap around the track. 
“Yeah?” Cale didn’t really know what else to say. Were you saying you would want to see him outside of physical therapy? 
“Yeah,” you nodded, taking a sip to hide your blush while Cale couldn’t stop beaming. 
4.
Two weeks later, you were on your last day of PT! You were walking, jogging, and jumping on your leg again. The tendon felt strong and both your doctor and Gerald agreed you were done with therapy. You were so excited that the second you noticed Cale had come in, you ran and jumped on him. “We’re feeling better, eh?” he laughed as he easily caught you in a hug. 
“I’m done!” you squealed as he set you back down. Though you had mentioned to Cale about seeing him outside of PT, nothing ever came of it. He still showed up at some point during every one of your sessions though, so you weren’t sure where you stood. 
“That’s awesome! Congrats Y/N!” he said, though now wondering when he would get to see you again. 
“And guess what!” you said with such excitement that he couldn’t help but laugh at you. He hummed for you to continue. “I get to skate again!”
“That’s great,” Cale pulled you into another hug, as he knew that had been something you had been worried about. 
“Well kind of,” you said, your smile falling. Cale looked at you in concern. “They said I can’t jump anymore. It’s too much strain on the tendon and it could potentially snap again.” you explained, trying to hold back the tears you could feel forming. If you couldn’t jump anymore, there was no more touring. Was it even worth getting back on the ice at this point?
“It’ll be alright,” Cale said, though a tear finally escaped your eyes. He wiped it away with his thumb. “I know it isn’t the exact outcome you wanted, but you’ve been working so hard and at least you can get on the ice again,” he tried to soothe you, and you nodded, pulling yourself back together. 
“I still have to finish today out. Want to jog with me?” you dried your other eye and motioned toward the track.
“Of course.” Without thinking, Cale grabbed hold of your hand and led you to the track. Out of the corner of your eye, you could see Gerald smirking, though you chose to ignore him. You jogged with Cale around the track a few times, him telling you about practice earlier that day. When you were done and doing your cool down stretches, Gerald came over and said his goodbyes to both of you, since he figured with you gone he wouldn’t be seeing Cale anymore either. 
“You two be good! Know you can always come back if something feels off okay,” he smiled kindly, and you hugged the older gentleman. 
“Thank you for everything,” you said. Cale shook his hand and the two of you walked out together. You both stopped outside the building, knowing this was where you had to part ways. Standing around awkwardly, you spoke up first. “Um, I guess I’ll see you…”
“Can I get your number?” Cale asked in a rush, cheeks flushing. You giggled and nodded your head, putting your number into his phone. 
“Don’t wait forever to text me,” you said, lightly biting your lip. 
“Not a chance,” Cale grinned, planting a kiss on your cheek as you both said goodbye. Cale kept his word, not even an hour later he was texting you, and two hours later you had dinner plans for the following evening. 
+1
“I don’t know about this Cale. I’m kind of nervous,” you said, getting out of the car and looking at the large building in front of you. 
“No one is here Y/N, it’ll be fine. And I’ll be right next to you,” Cale said, grabbing both your skate bags and walking around to you. You and Cale had been dating for a month now, and you just told him yesterday that you wanted to get back on the ice. You knew your balance would need some work, and were a little bummed you couldn’t jump, but getting back out there would be the best thing for you after dealing with your injury. When you told Cale, he immediately got with the rink manager at the practice rink so it could be just the two of you while you got comfortable on the ice again. 
After lacing up your skates, you walked to the opening with Cale, him stepping onto the ice first. He turned and held out his hand for you and you gently took it. You stepped out with your good ankle first, smiling at the feeling of the ice beneath you again. When your speed started to slow, you glanced up at Cale. “I got you,” he nodded. You gently placed your foot down and pushed off, laughing when your ankle automatically turned in and curved your projection. 
“I swear, if I have to learn how to skate again I am going to hurt someone,” you let go of Cale’s hand and kept gliding. 
“I don’t think that’s necessary sweetheart,” Cale chuckled, making sure he was within reach of you. 
“I can do this, I don’t know what the doctors were oh crap!” you stumbled, Cale catching you by the waist. 
“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves,” he kissed your cheek and you leaned back into him. 
“I really can’t jump anymore can I?” you asked softly, staring down at your skates. 
“Maybe in time. But let’s just focus on you balancing today. One worry at a time,”  Cale soothed you, and you smiled up at him. Steading yourself on his arms that were around you, you turned so you could face him. 
“Though I hate that this happened, I’m glad I met you in the process,” you whispered, Cale smiling down at you.
“Me too,” he whispered back, lowering his head to give you a gentle kiss that still made all the butterflies in your stomach erupt.

These grades are reported not only to their teachers
(Throwing across the field), it's got to be there in a hurry. I think you'll see that (from Wentz). And he'll play with great poise. I wonder whether you guys watch Nadal. Do you notice his court positioning here at IW versus at AO??? Do you understand WTF is going on with his game?? Or are you only watching the end result. Let me help you out some, he tweaking his game in SIGNIFICANT ways.
Cheap Jerseys free shipping One of the most far reaching cases of cheating was the East German government's "State Plan 14.25," developed in 1974, which led to the systematic doping of thousands of unsuspecting athletes in training centers. cheap jerseys East German scientists created oral turinabol, a pale blue pill that was a strong, hard to detect steroid. As athletes built lean muscle mass, improved endurance and accelerated workout recovery time, they also ingested androstenedione, testosterone and other experimental drugs.  Cheap Jerseys free shipping

The process of transformation began under Kiran Bedi, who was India's highest ranking female police officer and also served as the jail's inspector general before she retired. During her time at the jail in the early 1990s, she introduced literacy projects, drug rehabilitation, yoga and meditation until people started referring to the prison as "the Tihar Ashram"..  cheap nfl jerseys

Well damn I haven’t been on here in literally 4 years. A lot has changed since then. I find myself coming back only because I need a place to archive my thoughts. My written journals, as nice as they are to have, aren’t an effective place anymore to really get all of my thoughts down as efficiently as I’d like. When the urge comes over me to write an entry I have more thoughts than my hands can keep up with, and even in this format I have a hard time keeping up but I have a better chance at getting the meat of it out if I’m typing. So here we are. 
First, I suppose I should give an introduction to anyone that may stumble upon this blog. (It should be noted right out of the gate that everything written here will ABSOLUTELY be in the style of stream of consciousness, so while it may make sense to me to read through, it may not make sense to you. And that’s ok. I hope at the very least it may be entertaining, and at the very best, helpful for anyone else who may have similar thoughts to my own.)  Anyway, I don’t care too much about anonymity so I’ll tell you that my name is Mallory. I’m 29 years old and live in Denver,CO. I’m an industrial design student that loves art, dogs, tattoos (if any old followers are still here, you knew that already), my family, and Seinfeld reruns. Above all else however, I am an addict. I’ll just leave it at that. No one needs to know what it is exactly I’m addicted to, just that I’m an addict. I tend to think that all addicts in some way shape or form are the same, or at least, we all share a very similar burden, so for that reason I don’t feel as though it’s necessary to discern what my drug of choice is. If it’s not one thing, it will undoubtedly become another if I don’t do something about it. 
I guess you can say I’ve never really hit a rock bottom. Maybe I have, but it’s not like the type of rock bottom you see on tv. I’ve never been homeless, I’ve never been disowned by my family, I’ve never contracted a disease, I’ve never over dosed. On the contrary, most people on the outside looking in may think I have my shit very much together. I manage a full time work and school schedule (yes, even post covid), maintain social obligations (safely, of course), am in fairly good shape and am well spoken. I have however, allowed my addiction to drive wedges between those I love and have recently been dumped by the person I assumed to be the one, my person. It’s a long story, and I should’ve seen the writing on the wall but in short: I made decisions and acted in a way that hurt this person very much. I was unable to see beyond my own mental illness and insecurities in order to take care of them and protect them and in turn, pushed them so far away that there is, I believe, no possibility for reparation of that relationship. The damage is irreparable. We don’t even speak as friends. It is to date, the biggest regret of my life. 
I realized even before the relationship ended that I was forming destructive habits and had been for quite some time. I convinced myself, however, that everything was fine because I had none of the markers of a life in shambles. I had (and have) everything I need. I always figure it out. That’s my super power, ever since I was a kid who was largely neglected. I figure my shit out and get through no matter how the cards are stacked against me. The problem with that  is that I’ve never allowed others to help me. I would rather suffer on my own and figure it out than ask for help, and in turn relied heavily on chemical sedation to make it through each day. (This behavior, by the way, started as far back as 15 years old. It really ramped up in my late 20′s.) I could hear and see how I was treating this person that I loved so much, and all the ways that I failed to be there for them when they needed me the most. I could. All the scenarios that I could’ve handled differently keep me awake at night when I, inevitably, find myself self medicating. The relationship could’ve survived had I gotten a handle on my mental wellness and helped them through their grief. I just... couldn’t. I couldn’t see beyond myself as much as I wanted to. Again, I’m not sure I’ve ever regretted anything more in my entire life. I often think about if I’ll fall in love again and I just don’t see that happening. The qualities this person possessed were and are unparalleled. They’ll never ever know that I thought the sun shined out of their ass and just how much I loved them, because I had my head shoved so far up my own. 
So now I’m stuck with me. And my thoughts. And my anxiety. And my depression. And my crippling fear of never amounting to anything. And my insecurities. And my guilt. And my fears. And so on. I find sobriety for maybe a week at a time and then, usually at night, I have a good memory of...we’ll call him... Eric, and I don’t even know what to do with myself. I try so hard just to be happy that we ever had that time together. I try so hard just to be thankful that we DID have so many good times and that he DID make me feel so good. Within seconds though I’m overcome with guilt. I could’ve kept that if only I did XYZ. I could be sleeping next to him now if only I had done this, or that. If I were sober. 
The fucked up thing about addiction is that I absolutely KNOW without a doubt my life will be better if I just don’t medicate. If I face my feelings head on and work through them like a normal person, I will make it to the other side of that feeling stronger and happier and healthier. I knew that in my relationship with Eric but I medicated anyway. I know it now when I feel these emotions in the middle of the night. And I medicate anyway. 
And while I’ve said this a thousand times before, and wouldn’t blame anyone if they heard me say it again now and choose to not believe me, I’ll say it anyway: I’m done for good this time. I’m tired of this pattern of reckless behavior and hanging by a thread. I know it’s scary and I know there will be long sleepless nights and days that feel fucking impossible. And I know I’ll probably feel sick. I know I’ll be irritable and I’ll feel scared. I’ll feel alone. I’ll feel all of these things for the first time, like FOR REAL, in nearly 15 years. For all of those reasons, I find myself coming back here again. 
My hope is that there are other people like me to connect with on Tumblr who may also be looking for a community like I am. There is something very appealing about finding a community of strangers to talk to and mutually comfort without fear of judgement or ostracism. If you are a someone who is dealing with something similar or at the precipice of a similar predicament and don’t even want to engage but want to read about my story and how I got here, please follow me. If you want to talk, talk. If you don’t, just listen. I am by far the role model anyone needs but I am choosing recovery and choosing life. Any and all are welcome to join along.

2018 review, 2019 goals
In 2018 I... worked on a major pitch for [toy company]. I started working for [comic book company] doing color styling and clean-up work, and stopped doing work for an indie CGI show that wasn’t working out for me anymore. I did a lot of speedpaint commissions, and got to do collab commissions with my friend Roo! I finished my eeveelution print set and debuted it at CTNX and it’s been selling well since then. I saved up and took a class I had always wanted to take at CDA and learned a lot. I signed a contract to do full comics for another company in 2019 and signed up for multiple conventions I haven’t ever done or haven’t done in a while for 2019 too. I feel good about the work I did this year, especially the toy company stuff. I was glad too that I spent some time focusing on doing art for prints to sell at conventions! It’s definitely something I want to keep doing. I want to keep learning and improving too, me and Spikie signed up for Schoolism so we are going to do a bunch of classes on there in the new year.
2018 was often a hard year. My grandpa died, and my girlfriend Spikie’s grandmother and sister died too. We had a lot of problems with our apartment and it was often frustrating to go without appliances while we waited for months for them to be fixed. A convention I was going to be the guest artist at was canceled, but it did encourage me to apply to sell at more and expand my bubble of conventions I go to. I stopped and started therapy a few times and did get a lot better at things even though it was hard.
There were good things this year too; I visited my best friend Keisha in Boston with Spikie for a weekend and had a really great time. My other best friend Amanda flew out to California to visit us too, it was really nice! I got to go to Sea World in San Diego, the La Brea Tar Pits, and a few zoos for the first time! Me, Spikie, and Julianne went to Comic-con again and we started a polaroid scrapbook of our adventures and kept up with it for the first half of the year. I felt like the first half of 2018 was really good, just because we traveled a lot and got to see a lot of cool new things. I did the KonMari Tidying up of my entire apartment over a few months- it really changed my life a lot and how I look at *things*! I got a fitbit and started taking my health more seriously, competing with my friends to get the most steps. I started cooking a lot more with Spikie and Julianne and made a lot of food I really loved- I feel like we have perfected making a healthy delicious pizza. My all-time favorite childhood games, Spyro and Pokemon Yellow got remakes and I’ve been really enjoying playing them! I saw a lot of good movies this year, Spider-verse is definitely topping the charts... I definitely want to see more movies, shows, and play more videos games in 2019. 
In 2019 I want to... study more! I want to take more classes, elevate my skills, and push myself to make better art than I have previously. I want to make more full illustrations for prints, do a kickstarter for an art book with Spikie, and make more ambitious furry art that goes beyond my speedpaint style. I want to seriously pursue doing personal comics and work that I feel proud of and fulfilled by. I want to give the conventions I’m doing my all and work hard. I want to make learning and personal work a priority. I want to do well on the freelance work I have set up already for 2019, but I also want to work for new companies and do new things! 
I want to get my sleep schedule and working schedule together. I want to exercise more, do more cardio! I want to continue cooking a lot and eating out less. I want to go on more trips! I want to visit Em in Denver, travel more! I want to have breaks between working where I can see new places and experience new things. I want to push myself further with my PTSD recovery, see how far I can drive, how much I can handle on my own. I want to go out of my comfort zone as often as possible and pursue the things that make me nervous and conquer them. I want to be self-reliant and self-motivated. I want to go to the aquariums, zoos, by myself and I want to actively pursue studying on my own. 
Overall, I want to do all the things I want, without limits. If I want to make a personal comic, I’ll do it! If I want to travel somewhere, I’ll do it. If I see someone else doing killer work, I want to do it for myself too. I want to be less held back by my issues and preconceived notions of what I am capable of, and what I think others can do and I can’t. Looking back at 2018, I did a lot that I was proud of, but I feel like I could have pushed myself further with art, with myself. I feel like sometimes I played it safe, but in 2019 I don’t want to do that anymore. I want to make real, actionable goals and I want to smash them... And I will. Also, I want to make enough money where I can reasonably support a cat by the end of 2019... I want a furry friend, ok. Thanks for reading ✌️

Update #2  August, 2022
I’m currently listening to Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver, and that’s not good. Not the song, love the song. When I listen to this song, it means I am not okay, which begs the question - why am I not okay?
So, why am I not okay? Well, that’s why I’m writing this - to figure that out. Let’s start with what’s been happening in my life.
So this month of August has been quite the ride… I’ve got a new job. I moved out. I started driving again after one whole year. I’m becoming financially independent. Everything is new and I feel like all of these new circumstances are asking me to be somebody else, someone better, someone that I don’t think I am.
Don’t get me wrong, these new things are  great, they’re exactly what I wanted!
The thing is I’m struggling when it comes to staying on top of all of these new responsibilities and also staying connected to myself. And, also working the program and going to meetings. I’m not really being successful at the whole “living below your means” thing, as well as eating clean, learning daily, and enjoying my workouts. These last three things really mean something to me, and I really want to keep them. Again, I’m struggling.
I’ll allow myself to choose two areas in my life where I am currently having the most trouble with and I’ll dig deeper into those domains of my life, understand them better, and see if I can do something about them immediately to not prolong this discontentment I’m in. Those two areas that have been causing more stress for me are work and my recovery.
Work:
I’m working at Pull&Bear at a mall and I love it! It’s by far the best job I’ve ever had!  I like my work there, and I also enjoy the opportunity that it is to 1. meet new people;  2. start a whole career; and, 3. to improve my personal style.
I’ve been there for almost a month and I would like to continue to work there. I would be lying, however,  if I said that everything is perfect. And by the way It’s really not them, it’s me
I’m finding it hard to like myself when I’m working. It feels like I’m quite paranoid. I am scared shitless that they fire me at any given moment.  The fact that I take too long to fold a table and distribute all of the clothes that need to be put in their correct place at the store makes me feel really incapable, which is a childhood wound. I’m convinced that everyone is lying to me when they say they like me and my work. In my head, everyone hates me and is secretly complaining about me. I don’t feel confident about the way I look, even though I’ve never looked better in my life.
So what’s really happening here? Well, I am scared I’ll lose this job I really like, and that I really need for financial stability and to invest in my future.
I’m scared to fail because I am not sure I’ll be able to handle that pain. I still have body image and belonging issues.
So what can I do? I can take it day by day. I can thank every single day I still have this job when I walk in and out of those doors, because indeed nothing lasts forever, and the present is almost gone. I can reality check my expectations and demand a bit less of myself because I do in fact have a lot on my plate. I can listen to that self love meditation I have more often.
Recovery:
The fact that I am not able to go to as many meetings and to work as hard on the steps as I did before worries me. It’s not the only thing I’m worried about when it comes to my recovery. I have also  been eating fast food more often even though I know that I can’t afford that. I don’t really have a designated time to have lunch or dinner, it changes about every other day. Besides that, I’m starting to feel like my workouts are chore again, I’m more insecure about my body
The meetings, sharing what’s going on in my life, reading the steps and traditions, preparing my meal boxes and actually eating them, enjoying moving my body… These are pillars of my recovery, and so these are things that I’m going to need to make room for in my schedule. That’s not even questionable.
So what’s really happening here? My routine around eating is fuzzy. I have been eating more junk food. And, my workouts have become unexciting.
So what can I do? I’ll need to ask my superiors to have lunch or dinner at my meetings’ hour. To keep on with the steps and reflection I’ll have to find methods to continue to post here on tumblr. I’ll need to really put an end to fast food in at least some of the restaurants at the mall, and ask them to not put some sauces in the restaurants that I’ll allow myself to eat from time to time. I’ll need to find ways to stick to my prepared meals. And, of course, I will also make sure I’m  bringing life into my workouts, making them fun and pleasurable again.
I have more things that are begging for my attention, but this week I’ll just focus on going to work grateful and feeling like I’m enough, and getting my recovery back on track, because my recovery needs to come first if I want to actually enjoy this beautiful life I’ve given.

Spending big in NBA free agency is not for the risk-averse. Any contract can turn into an unsavory cap hit for the organization on a whim.
Injuries, unanticipated regression, reckless shopping and ill-fitting rosters can all butcher the desirability of recently minted deals. And no free agent is technically without risk. Even max-contract formalities or relative bargains can be turned upside down by a sudden derailment.
Certain investments, though, carry higher probabilities of failure or underwhelming returns than others.
Teams might throw too much money and/or years at a player past his prime. Or overpay for the potential of a younger player who never actualizes it. Or invest aggressively in someone coming off an injury only to get burned. Or funnel an illogical sum of money into a free agent because the team can’t afford to lose him.
Every player who populates our risky-business clique will fall into one of these buckets. And just so we’re clear: They are not here because they’re bad or because we’re predicting they will be bad.
On the contrary, they’re either so good or intriguing now that they project to have frothy markets—multiyear offers that, based on a confluence of factors, have a legitimate chance of aging poorly.

Lonzo Ball is not a risky investment in a vacuum. He is only 23, can defend either backcourt slot and has dispelled questions about the viability of his jumper by canning 37.6 percent of his triples over the past two seasons. He is a genuinely really good NBA player who, given his age, has room to get even better.
Different tunes would be sung if his opening-stretch slump this past year sustained and prompted the New Orleans Pelicans to hock him for pennies on the dollar at the March 25 trade deadline. It didn’t. He averaged 15.3 points and 6.0 assists while hitting 39.8 percent of his 8.6 three-point attempts per game after his name ambled into the early-season trade talk.
If anything, Lonzo increased his value ahead of restricted free agency. Malik Beasley and Stephen Curry were the only players to match his long-range efficiency and volume post-rut, and in a market devoid of gettable megastars, he looms as one of the glitziest options for bigger spenders.
Therein lies the risk: Between Lonzo’s play (for the most part), a bare-bones free-agency pool and the sense that the Pelicans may neither want nor be able to afford him, the stage is set for admirers to come after him fast and hard. Do not rule out his getting an offer sheet worth $20 million or more annually.
Paying him that much is akin to stepping out on a limb overlooking a thousand-foot drop. It doesn’t matter whether it’s the Pelicans or another team footing the bill. Spending that much money on a “point” guard implies an ability to comprehensively run an offense. That isn’t Lonzo’s modus operandi.
He continues to have limitations as a half-court creator. Defenses don’t yet have to meticulously plan against his off-the-dribble jumper, and he isn’t an aggressive downhill attacker. Among everyone who finished 200 drives this season, his 37.9 percent clip in those situations ranked 163rd.
New Orleans’ half-court offense was better with him on the floor, but that says more about the time he spent logging beside Point Zion Williamson. The Pelicans’ half-court efficiency plunged whenever Lonzo played without him.
Any team prepared to pay top dollar for his services must have a minimum of two other playmakers who can run the show outside of transition. And at that point, if your de facto floor general cannot consistently or effectively spearhead possessions against set defenses, is paying him $18 to $22 million—or more—per year really the best use of your cap?

Entering free agency remains a non-decision for Spencer Dinwiddie, even after he missed pretty much the entire season with a partially torn right ACL. His $12.3 million player is miles below market value for a starting-caliber point guard and, by Eastern Conference standards, fringe All-Star.
Dinwiddie’s raw efficiency can be a turnoff. He has shot lower than 34 percent from deep in each of the past four years and hit just 27.7 percent of his pull-up treys last season. That certainly matters, though it isn’t nearly as concerning if he keeps finding the net on 37-plus percent of his spot-up threebies.
Regardless, the direct, relentless pressure he puts on the basket is more paramount. He is not the most efficient finisher, but the wrath he wreaks upon the defense spurs trips to the line and higher-quality opportunities for those around him. And while he works with some changes in pace, his attacks are more streamlined than spectacle. He isn’t trying to dance with the ball and prowl for broken ankles; he’s unsettling the larger defensive picture, rather than just his man, and acting on it.
Translation: Some team will fork over a longer-term deal at a higher price point to nab his services—especially this summer, when the market is desperate for fringe, let alone actual, star power. What version of Dinwiddie that suitor will get verges on unknowable.
Torn ACLs are not the career-enders they once were, but he’s now undergone surgery on both, dating back to his time at the University of Colorado. Even for someone whose manipulation of defenses isn’t predicated upon preternatural explosion and who only just turned 28 in April, his injury history looms as uncomfortable if he’s receiving closer to $20 million than $15 million per year.

That Chris Paul even ends up here is a testament to his overall ridiculousness. The idea of his turning down a $44.2 million player option ahead of his age-36 season once seemed ludicrous.
Now, though, Paul’s entry onto the open market feels inevitable. That’s what happens when you bind and gag Father Time for two consecutive seasons. Paul has missed a combined four games during this stretch and is currently co-headlining the Western Conference finalist Phoenix Suns. (Note: He entered the league’s health and safety protocols last week.)
His postseason performance has only emboldened the opt-out scenario. He’s averaging 15.7 points and 8.7 assists while draining 52.0 percent of his twos and 44.4 percent of his threes.
His right shoulder limited him for much of the first round and part of the Western Conference Semifinals, but he still churned out 1.29 points per shot from mid-range during Phoenix’s sweep of the Denver Nuggets—the equivalent of banging in 43.1 percent of your threes. Paul also wrapped that series dishing out 41 assists to five turnovers. (Aside: Holy friggin’ crap.)
Execs told Sports Illustrated‘s Chris Mannix they “peg” Paul as a three-year, $60 million guy. That is a gross underestimation. He’s not opting out to secure less than $17 million in extra guaranteed money. The contract length is probably spot-on; his team, be it the Suns or another landing spot, run into the over-38 rule and the logistical headache that is deferred compensation if they go any longer.
The average annual value, though? It will be more than $20 million per year. He just made second-team All-NBA. He is instrumental to what might be the present title favorite. Something around three years, $75 million feels more realistic—and like Paul’s minimum.
And that begets a dilemma: Whatever team signs Paul really, actually gets Chris freaking Paul…through, presumably, his age-38 season. Shelling out what could be—will be?—$25-plus million per year for someone sniffing 40 is wildly unsettling, no matter his credentials. Paul’s past two seasons of pristine availability are impressive, but they’re anomalies. He missed at least 21 games in each of his previous three years.
Father Time eventually comes for everyone, even if he has to break out of captivity to do it. Any multiyear commitment to an age-36, six-foot-nothing point guard with 40,000-plus playoff and regular season minutes under his belt registers as an extreme, albeit in this case tantalizing, risk.

Victor Oladipo’s risk level depends on the value and length of his next contract—both of which, at this stage, feel relatively unpredictable. He appeared in just four games after getting traded to the Miami Heat before requiring season-ending surgery on his right quad tendon.
This is the same right quad Oladipo ruptured back in January 2019, when he was one season removed from All-NBA and All-Defense appearances. Not only has he never been the same player since, but it also is possible his latest injury will sideline him for all of next year.
Missing the lion’s share of 2021-22 won’t preclude Oladipo from getting a contract. Teams remember the player he was in 2017-18 and for part of 2018-19. More than a handful of suitors will take a multiyear flier on him if it means having intimate knowledge of his recovery and bagging a fringe All-Star at a cut rate.
Good luck figuring out that rate—and that length. A one-year deal doesn’t make much sense if there’s a chance he won’t play during it. He needs to sign a two- or three-season pact for the low-risk theory to hold water, and it only pans out if he’s taking afterthought money.
Whether Oladipo values multiyear security and the chance to build a rapport with the same team over the chance to reenter free agency sooner is anyone’s guess. He turned down a two-year, $45.2 million extension from the Houston Rockets before they traded him. Leaving that much money on the table might compel him to angle for a shorter-term deal in hopes of rebooting his value and then signing a fatter, longer-term pact.
This all says nothing of Oladipo’s ceiling at full strength. Rupturing his quad fundamentally altered his play style. He doesn’t put as much pressure on the rim, and his off-the-dribble jumper isn’t as bankable. After ranking in the 84th percentile of points per shot attempt at his position during the 2017-18 campaign (for which he earned the Most Improved Player award), he has since failed to crack the 40th percentile.
That drop-off is part of Oladipo’s risk. It’s not merely about his latest recovery. It’s about whether the player from three seasons ago represented a possible normal or a flash in the pan.

Dennis Schroder’s decision to turn down a four-year, $84 million extension from the Los Angeles Lakers always amounted to a massive bet on himself. What he was gambling on isn’t quite clear. Either he believed that another team would throw him more than $21 million per season or that the Lakers’ inflexible cap sheet would allow him to name his price.
If he was playing the former angle: Yikes. He cost himself a ton of money in the postseason, failing to leave a meaningful dent in Los Angeles’ first-round loss to the Phoenix Suns and capping off his year by shooting 9-of-36 over his final three appearances.
In Schroder’s defense, he did miss most of the Lakers’ closing kick because of COVID-19 protocols. By the time he returned, he had just two regular-season games to ramp up before the playoffs.
Still, his overarching value was in question long before he entered the league’s healthy and safety protocols. The Lakers surrendered Danny Green and a first-round pick for him under the guise he could elevate the half-court offense during minutes with and without LeBron James and because he was coming off a 2019-20 crusade in which he shot a career high from just about every area of the floor.
The move did not work out as intended. The Lakers’ offensive rating placed in the 27th percentile when Schroder ran the show without LeBron, and his efficiency at the rim and from three-point range plummeted off their all-time highs.
Los Angeles’ confining cap sheet now seems to be his best and only hope at netting fringe-star money. The Lakers will enter the summer within $10 million of the luxury tax if Montrezl Harrell picks up his player option and blow past it when factoring in cap holds for Schroder, Alex Caruso and Talen Horton-Tucker (restricted).
Can they justify backing up the Brink’s truck to pay Schroder solely because they don’t have the wiggle room to replace him? And what does it actually mean if his contract demands drop? Because after the year he just pieced together, he qualifies as an ultra-risky expenditure at any eight-figure-per-year number, regardless of whether he’s re-signing with the Lakers or another team.

Teams remember the player he was in 2017-18 and for part of 2018-19. More than a handful of suitors will take a multiyear flier on him if it means having intimate knowledge of his recovery and bagging a fringe All-Star at a cut rate.","content_type":"paragraph","id":73055963,"content":"html":"Good luck figuring out that rate—and that length. A one-year deal doesn&apos;t make much sense if there&apos;s a chance he won&apos;t play during it. He needs to sign a two- or three-season pact for the low-risk theory to hold water, and it only pans out if he&apos;s taking afterthought money.","content_type":"paragraph","id":103710464,"content":"html":"Whether Oladipo values multiyear security and the chance to build a rapport with the same team over the chance to reenter free agency sooner is anyone&apos;s guess. He turned down a two-year, $45.2 million extension from the Houston Rockets before they traded him. Leaving that much money on the table might compel him to angle for a shorter-term deal in hopes of rebooting his value and then signing a fatter, longer-term pact.","content_type":"paragraph","id":91753881,"content":"html":"This all says nothing of Oladipo&apos;s ceiling at full strength. Rupturing his quad fundamentally altered his play style. He doesn&apos;t put as much pressure on the rim, and his off-the-dribble jumper isn&apos;t as bankable. After ranking in the 84th percentile of points per shot attempt at his position during the 2017-18 campaign (for which he earned the Most Improved Player award), he has since failed to crack the 40th percentile.","content_type":"paragraph","id":54704502,"content":"html":"That drop-off is part of Oladipo&apos;s risk.

The Lakers surrendered Danny Green and a first-round pick for him under the guise he could elevate the half-court offense during minutes with and without LeBron James and because he was coming off a 2019-20 crusade in which he shot a career high from just about every area of the floor.","content_type":"paragraph","id":38172674,"content":"html":"The move did not work out as intended. The Lakers&apos; offensive rating placed in the 27th percentile when Schroder ran the show without LeBron, and his efficiency at the rim and from three-point range plummeted off their all-time highs.","content_type":"paragraph","id":84742651,"content":"html":"Los Angeles&apos; confining cap sheet now seems to be his best and only hope at netting fringe-star money. The Lakers will enter the summer within $10 million of the luxury tax if Montrezl Harrell picks up his player option and blow past it when factoring in cap holds for Schroder, Alex Caruso and Talen Horton-Tucker (restricted).","content_type":"paragraph","id":28617162,"content":"html":"Can they justify backing up the Brink&apos;s truck to pay Schroder solely because they don&apos;t have the wiggle room to replace him?

Adam Ferrari Comments on the Predicted Long-Term Rebound of the United States’ Oil and Gas Industry
Originally published on thefinancialcapital.com
Adam Ferrari, founder and CEO of Ferrari Energy reveals further details on the expected progressive recovery of natural gas demand that will contribute to the long-term rebound of the oil and gas industry in the United States.
It has been a tough year for the United States oil and gas industry between the pandemic and oil price war, but with record falls come the opportunity for record rebounds. Adam Ferrari, an entrepreneur in the gas and oil industry, founded Ferrari Energy, a company that works with land-owners to produce and develop oil and gas and the right to receive royalties. Ferrari said that though the global oil demand fell by a record amount in 2020, the International Energy Agency projected that in 2021 the oil and gas industry w rebound. The stay-at-home order from pandemic precautions dampened the United States oil demand as transportation usage plummeted. Considered a multi-decade low, the gasoline demand average in April 2020 averaged around 5.33 million barrels per day, a significant drop from the 9.47 million barrels per day in April 2019. However, with coronavirus vaccines on the horizon, now more than ever, more countries are pushing to return to societal norms. Another national lockdown is being seen and declared as a worst-case scenario, and the oil market prices are now back on the rise. Jet fuel demand fell by three million barrels per day in 2020, but a rebound is brewing as the oil demand is predicted to rise to one million barrels per day in 2021. People are gradually starting to get back to more means of transportation as more travel opportunities return. The public return to travel is good news for oil and gas companies as the hit on the transportation sector was devastating for oil and gas prices. Eighty percent of crude oil barrels go towards fuel for transportation. However, people are more inclined to choose to drive because of the pandemic rather than taking an airplane. It is anticipated that low oil and gas prices will motivate another gas use boom in electricity in the summer of 2021. Gas is considered a primary source of power, taking up a total of forty percent. The International Energy Agency predicts that the total oil demand will not fully recover to pre-coronavirus levels until 2023. In the meantime, oil prices will continue to stabilize in the coming weeks, thanks to the recovering demand for oil along with oil-producing nations and United States companies performing record removal of oil from the market.
About Adam Ferrari Adam Ferrari was born and raised in the south suburbs of Chicago, IL. He is the grandson of an Italian immigrant coal miner who worked in the mines of Coal City, IL. From an early age, Adam was taught the value and dignity achieved through a hard day’s work. The oil and gas industry provides good-paying jobs for millions of blue-collar men and women across America, and this is one of many reasons Adam and his company are such staunch supporters of the oil and gas industry. Blue-collar men and women built America, and the modern oil and gas industry keeps America moving forward. Through the successes at Ferrari Energy, the company has been able to give back to various organizations in the greater Denver and Chicago regions, which are both cities that he has taken residence in and maintains strong ties to.

head in the clouds but my gravity’s centered // part 4
Summary: Stan is an alcoholic, and it’s just as hard on Kyle as it is on Stan. He just wants to help. Warnings: please be cautious!! there is VERY heavy mention of drinking, alcoholism, and mentions of a parent’s death. if any of that triggers you, i have much softer one-shots you can read. this is heavy angst with a happy ending. A/N: i just wanted to say i’ve never dealt with alcoholism (however, i’ve had people close to me with different addictions) and i did a lot of research online to write this. just so you know, alcoholism is different for everyone so how i am portraying stan’s can be different to anyone else’s. if you or someone you know struggles with alcoholism, i strongly urge you to accept the road to recovery and get the help you deserve. call a hotline, see a professional, go to rehab, whatever measures is necessary for you or your loved ones. recovery is possible.
PART 1 // PART 2 // PART 3
“I want to try a new exercise,” was Doctor Tyson’s first suggestion. It has been two weeks since Stan drank. The therapy is required twice a week, and this was his third time in the room with her. The nausea has began to get better, but his hands and body still trembled sometimes. “A lot of alcoholics, they have hurt a lot of people that they care about and still carries the heavy guilt of it. Sometimes it even drives them back to the bottle,” she explained. “If you want, would you be able to make a list of the people? You could even go back and make amends.” Tyson grabbed a clipboard with blank paper on it and a pen before handing it to him. Stan hesitantly took it, and thought for a second, before scribbling quickly.
That’s how Stan found himself, back in South Park, an hour away from Denver, holding the crumpled piece of paper in his hands and staring at the first name.
1. Cartman
Cartman would be the hardest one to talk to, so Stan wanted to get him out of the way. Not because Stan did horrible things to him, but because Cartman was a real asshole. Still, Stan didn’t doubt he hurt him. He contacted Butters, who for some reason was still good friends with him, to find out where Cartman was living now. Hesitating, and not sure if he could go through with this, Stan had to find the courage to rap his knuckles on the front door.
It had taken a minute, but the door eventually swung open. Stan was met eye to eye with Cartman, who hadn’t exactly changed since Stan left. His pinched up face and heavy fat rolls, matching his beady eyes that stared down the other. “Geez, never thought I’d see the day Stanley Marsh was at my door again,” he spoke, his voice still high pitched and annoying.
Stan tightened his grip on the piece of paper. He sucked in a breath before speaking. “I’m here to.. Make amends,” he spoke tightly. He hadn’t liked Cartman for many reasons; the way he endlessly tortured Kyle being one of them. But Doctor Tyson was right, Stan needed to make peace with who he hurt due to his alcoholism. Cartman waited, still standing in the doorway, not even bothering to let him in. “I’m sorry.”
“Sorry?” Cartman repeated, his double chin turning triple as he leaned back in bewilderment. “For what?”
“I’m sorry for high school,” Stan said, annoyed Cartman was making him say it, but knew this was the right way to have the situation be more peaceful. “I’m sorry we aren’t friends anymore.” He wanted to add that it was also Cartman’s fault, for being such a terrible person, as to why they aren’t friends anymore but remembered what he was there to do. “I’m a recovering alcoholic. I stopped talking to you, and loads of others, because alcohol became more important.” Stan knew Cartman was going to have a field day with the news Stan was an addict, but that didn’t matter. He had to get the weight off his shoulders. “And I’m sorry.”
Cartman was silent for a second. “Huh,” he finally said, blinking. “That’s good to hear.” He went to shut the door again, but Stan stepped in and quickly flattened his palm on it.
“That’s it?” Stan asked quickly, astonished. “I’m telling you I’m a recovering alcoholic and I’m sorry, yet all you have to say is that it’s good to hear?”
Cartman shrugged. “Yeah, bro. I don’t care. Is that what you needed to hear?” Cartman’s voice had never been more annoying to Stan’s ears than it was now, but he stepped back and allowed the other to shut the door in his face.
Obviously, Stan had known he shouldn’t have expected anything else. Cartman was still an asshole, but he didn’t care. The heavy guilt from the end of their friendship was taken off his shoulders, for now. Stan would still feel bad, and would miss the better times, but for the first apology in years, it went well.
2. Tweek
3. Craig
Stan decided to talk to them both at the same time the next day. There wasn’t a day there was apart anyways; attached to the hip since fourth grade. Stan didn’t particularly like Craig, at all actually, yet he understood why went to the intervention. He, surprising himself, wanted to not only apologize, but thank Craig.
Despite them looking very intimate in the hallways, clearly saying a parting good-bye, Stan interrupted them. He shoes squeaked loudly against the floor, making him all that more nervous to speak. He woke up early for this, knowing Tweek had early Drama class. “Hey, can I talk?” He asked hesitantly.
Craig responded with a silent scowl, annoyed. Tweek, however, was much kinder. Ever since he quit his addiction to coffee and meth, he had stopped trembling as much and grew to be more tolerable than Craig. He grabbed Craig’s hand and laced their fingers together, knowing it’d be enough affection. “Yeah, sure, man,” he replied. “Go ahead.”
Stan sucked in a breath. He decided to keep it short, simple, and straight to the point with them. It was the easiest route. “I’m sorry for being an asshole because of my drinking problem.”
Blinking once, unamused and uncaring, Craig stared at him. “Is that all?” He asked. “I’m an asshole all the time.”
Tweek rolled his eyes. Due to the height difference between him and his boyfriend, he chose to stand on his tiptoes and kiss Craig on the cheek before looking at Stan. “We get it, man. Just gt better,” he spoke, accepting the apology better than Cartman and Craig had. “I have to get to class. Bye, Craig. I love you.”
“I love you more,” Craig replied, his expression softening. He reluctantly let go of Tweek hand, and watched him wander off, before turning colder once more when Tweek was out of sight. “Later, Marsh.”
Before Craig could walk off, Stan grabbed his arm. “Wait,” he protested. He had one more thing to quickly say, and it wasn’t an apology. “Kyle told me, that on the night you guys found me, um..”
“Choking on your own vomit?” Craig finished for him, bluntly. “Nearly dying? I faintly remember.”
Stan narrowed his eyes at him. “Yeah. That. Anyways, Kyle told me that you held him back from getting too close and I appreciate it. I wouldn’t have wanted him to see me like that, close anyways, so.. Thank you.” He tried not to sound so uptight, remembering this had to be genuine if he ever wanted to move on.
“Pft,” Craig let out a puff of air, still acting tough. “Whatever.” For good measure, of showing that he didn’t care, Craig flipped Stan off before walking away.
‘That went well,’ Stan thought to himself.
4. Wendy
Stan had wanted to put Wendy first, but she’d be one of the hardest. However, he didn’t exactly want to save her for last. He also didn’t want to do this over a Skype conversation, as this was supposed to be a face to face conversation, but had no other choice, as Wendy was a long plane ride away.
The second Wendy’s face had popped up on the screen, Stan felt his heart drop in his chest with guilt. This was the whole point of it, he had to remind himself. He was a complete dick to her, who was nothing but kind in return even when he hadn’t deserved it one bit, and it was time to apologize more sincerely than the other times he had. “Hey,” Stan finally spoke, his fingers playing with the cord of his headphones.
“Hi, Stan,” Wendy replied. Stan watched as she rested her chin on the palm of her hand. “You said this was serious, and couldn’t be talked about over text?” She sounded worried, but somehow she always was when it came to him.
Just like all the other times, Stan had to just speak and rip it off like a bandaid. “I’m sorry,” he started with. “I’m sincerely sorry more than all the other times I said sorry. Um..” He cleared his throat. “For awhile now, I’ve had a drinking problem.” He heard Wendy suck in a sharp breath. “I started to accept it now, and I want to heal and get better. That long road starts with apologizing to the people I’ve hurt and accepting responsibility. So that’s why.. I needed to talk to you, face to face, as best I could,” he explained.
“I’m sorry I was awful to you in high school,” Stan chose to start with. “Although my problem wasn’t big then, it was starting. “I ditched you to party with my friends, and I..” He paused. “I cheated on you with Kyle when I was drunk.” He paused, watching Wendy nod. He told her this, and she had broken up with him over it, but it was still hard to face. “I’m sorry I was so terrible to you.”
“I know you are, Stan,” Wendy replied. “It was high school. We’re friends now, it’s okay,” she tried to assure him. Her voice cracked through Stan’s headphones, and he wasn’t sure if Skype was ruining the quality of their call or she was about to cry.
“No, it’s not okay,” Stan argued. “I’m so sorry for what I did. It wasn’t okay, and I’m always going to feel guilty for it, but I want to get better.”
“I’ll be here for you,” Wendy spoke, answering the question Stan didn’t know he had. “You’re still my best friend. I’m so proud of you, Stan, and I accept your apology.”
Stan breathed a sigh of relief. It went better than he had expected, even though Wendy and him were still good friends and she’s heard similar apologies in the past. “Thank you,” he said. Instead of the heavy feeling of guilt, a much warmer feeling of relief spread through him. “I’ll talk to you later?”
Wendy smiled, wide, before fondly rolling her eyes. “Yeah, of course. Later, loser.” She didn’t have to say it. Stan knew she was kind enough to forgive him, despite the terrible things he did, and was willing to be there.
5. Butters
6. Kenny
7. Mom & Shelly
The next three were easy. They had all went the same way. Stan sat with Butters and Kenny, and as they already knew the current state of the situation, Stan stuck with the sincere apology for what he’s done. Butters cried, which was no surprise. When he talked to his family, after talking with Cartman, his mom was the one to cry. Shelly had punched him in the shoulder, her sign of a hug. Stan was soon back to the apartment, at night, where Kyle was waiting for him.
“How’d it go?” Was Kyle’s first question when Stan walked in and was shrugging off his jacket. It was around dinner time, but Stan didn’t feel hungry. He was more nervous than anything.
“It all went alright,” Stan said honestly. He didn’t bring up Cartman, deciding it didn’t really matter. Even if it didn’t end well, Stan still felt better from it. “I just have one last person to talk to.” Stan took the crumpled list out of his pocket and looked at it.
8. Kyle
“Really? Who?” Kyle asked, now more interested and looking up, closing his text book and setting it aside.
“You.”
Taken back by the words, Kyle nearly froze in place. “Me?” He repeated. “Stan, you don’t have to apologize to me,” he tried to tell him. “I understand. I do.”
Stan shook his head, refusing to accept that. “No, I do,” he argued. He sat next to Kyle on the bed, pushing aside the textbook. “Next to Wendy, I was the absolute worst to you,” he stated. “I used our rent money to buy more drinks, I expected you to clean up after me when I threw up, to make sure I got home safe and tuck me in as if I was a child. It wasn’t fair to you,” he spoke honestly, feeling his throat closing up and tears springing in his eyes.
As tough as it was to admit, Stan knew deep in his heart that he wanted a drink now. He was scared and wanted to run to the nearest bar. His hands shaking showed a physical sign of it, but he tried his best to hide them out of Kyle’s view. This was about Kyle, not Stan.
“I’m so sorry for earning the worst boyfriend award,” Stan said, trying to crack a joke and smile lightly. “I mean it, Kyle,” he spoke quicker, noticing Kyle was still. He was almost stiff, but staring at Stan still. “You suffered, you were scared, and it wasn’t fair. I love you so, so much. I can’t express it enough. I’m so sorry for what I did to you.”
Kyle was still silent and frozen stiff in place. But Stan still saw the tears streaming down his cheeks. Stan took his trembling hands back out of his pockets before grabbing Kyle’s tightly. It made Kyle snap out of it, and react. “I forgive you,” he said, softly. Stan can’t remember a time when Kyle was so soft and quiet; he was always hard and loud. Kyle never was shocked, or silent. “I love you too.”
Stan didn’t hesitate in lurching forward and catching Kyle in a kiss. Their hands were clenched together tightly between them, and somehow, Stan was able to find himself calm enough to stop them from trembling.

Restaurant rewards booking app Seated nabs $30M, acquires VenueBook to add events
The restaurant industry has been slammed hard by the coronavirus outbreak, with venues in many cities in the US and beyond shuttered or restricted in how they can serve customers — to say nothing of the comfort level of customers themselves to dine in public venues — in the name of helping contain the spread of infections. But today, a startup that has built a platform to help them manage their bookings business better is announcing a round of funding and an acquisition to help those restauranteurs on the road to recovery.
Seated, which provides a restaurant booking platform that rewards customers with credits for gift cards at selected other retailers like Amazon, Nike, Sephora and Uber when they show up to eat, has raised $30 million in funding, and alongside that it is also announcing that it has acquired another industry startup, VenueBook, a platform for event planners to reserve space at restaurants and other venues. Today VenueBook has some 120,000 event planners using its service across the New York tristate area, Denver, San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area, and the wider Washington, D.C. region.
The terms of the deal are not being disclosed, nor is the valuation of Seated. The funding is being led by Insight Partners and Craft Ventures, Greycroft (where Seated’s co-founder and executive chairman Bo Peabody is also a venture partner) and Rho Capital Partners are also participating. This appears to be the first funding disclosed by Seated since being founded in 2017 by Peabody and Brice Gumpel, although it had previously raised a seed round.
New York-based Seated had its start in the world of booking tables for in-restaurant eating — a business that has to date racked up some 900,000 reserved seats and $37 million in revenue for its restaurant partners across NYC, Boston, Atlanta and Chicago (covering around 800 independent restaurants in all at the moment), with some additional $7 million in tips for staff.
But in recent months it’s been recalibrating what it does to meet the needs of the moment, which include diversifying beyond providing reservations to in-restaurant individual diners. That’s included the launch of Seated at Home, a takeout service that is positioned as a competitor to the likes of GrubHub and UberEats with a 0% commission on orders. And now, the acquisition of VenueBook adds an event planning service into the mix that takes its booking platform beyond the walls of local eateries.
“We are always looking for new ways to support restaurants’ profitability and longevity, and with the acquisition of VenueBook, Seated Events offers a new way for restaurants to drive demand in yet another revenue stream,” said Gumpel, who is the startup’s CEO, in a statement. “COVID-19 has proved to be one of the toughest challenges the restaurant industry has ever faced and this funding will help us refine our current products to ensure we’re doing whatever we can to help our restaurant partners keep their doors open and remain profitable.”
In terms of just how hard restaurants have been hit, the statistics speak for themselves. Researchers from Harvard Business School noted in a recent essay that 40% of restaurants in the US shuttered two months into the pandemic, putting 8 million people out of work, three times more job losses than any other industry.
And when some started to reopen, they were facing major investments as they retooled their businesses to cater to how people are “eating out” now — significantly more takeout and delivery, and a lot of eating outdoors. Even so, diner numbers in June were down more than 65% versus a year ago, with the National Restaurant Association in the US predicting a drop of $240 billion in revenue for the year, with more than $120 billion during the first three months of the COVID-19 pandemic alone.
Some countries are trying to offset this huge hit: in the UK, the government has started its “Eat Out to Help Out” scheme, which essentially subsidises the cost of meals by up to 50% when people eat out at participating restaurants.
That’s not the case in the US at large, however, with federal government relief programs like the Paycheck Protection Program targeted across industry verticals.
That has opened an opportunity for startups that are building tech to at least make what business opportunities are available more accessible to a wider number of users at both ends of its two-sided marketplace, those looking to eat out or meet in restaurants, and the restaurants (and now, other venues) themselves.
The tech is about measuring footfall, providing analytics and more insights into how to fill venues and kitchen utilisation in a more efficient way, but that is at the backend. On the surface, the startup makes a point of touting how low-tech it is, requiring little more than a smartphone to use it. That sets it apart from a number of other restaurant service startups, which often sell specific tablets and other hardware to be able to use their software.
Indeed, the restaurant business is not known for being high-tech — one reason why you might argue many get taken for a ride by delivery and other startups that promise to handle all the fussy tech stuff on their behalf. So in an industry where typically profits are no more than 4-5% of revenue (and those are the lucky ones), the shift into events is a critical way of improving margins at a time when restaurants’ prime revenue generation has been pulled out from under them. Events are estimated to make up 10-15% of a restaurant’s revenue, and up to 20% of a restaurant’s profit, Seated notes. , Seated Events provides a seamless way for restaurants to begin rebuilding this critical revenue stream, allowing families or smaller groups of people who would like to take extra precautions while dining out to book private rooms.
“Events are not only an important part of a restaurant’s revenue stream, but they’re important for internal operations. Restaurant events help to increase employee retention because both front and back of the house employees are able to exercise creativity and tap into different skill sets while planning and executing events,” said Peabody in a statement (Peabody himself also owned and been on the boards of a number of restaurant businesses, in a long entrepreneurial career that has also included founding Tripod — a verrrry early social network sold to Lycos in 1997 and being the founding chairman of Everyday Health, which was sold to Ziff Davis). “We are thrilled to be able to offer yet another way for restaurants to maximize their profitability. With Seated Events, Seated at Home, and Seated, restaurants can drive demand to their three primary sources of revenue in a single, easy to use rewards platform.”
All this means that even at a time when restaurants feel like a risky bet, investors are interested:
“Restaurants are a vital part of our culture and communities, and the industry has been completely upended by COVID-19. It’s been impressive to watch Seated’s unwavering commitment to help restaurants thrive as they quickly adapted their rewards platform to offer delivery, and now events, in order to continue to meet restaurants’ needs,” said Thilo Semmelbauer, Managing Director at Insight Partners, in a statement. “Seated’s expanded vision is compelling and this one-stop platform will be an important piece of the restaurant industry’s recovery and evolution.”

The secret to Luka Doncic’s rapid rise into a leading MVP candidate
Tumblr media
Luka Doncic has firmly joined the NBA’s superstar tier.
The Slovenian sensation is turning a pre-draft weakness into a strength.
With less than a minute left in a one-possession game against a conference rival, Luka Doncic caught the ball far from the hoop against a pesky small defender. There was too little time and space to no-look a pass to a teammate or set up a stepback moonball to shut the game off for good. Doncic had to do this the hard way. He had to create a shot for himself off the dribble, with one opponent in his grill and the other four watching his every move.
OK, I cheated a bit. This description actually covers two moments in Doncic’s young NBA career. What happens next explains Doncic’s rapid transformation from a fun sensation as a rookie into a legitimate top-five player as a sophomore.
The first took place on Dec. 28, 2018, against the Pelicans. Doncic began the play near half court, with Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday attached to his hip. Doncic slowed down to change speeds, hoping Holiday would come out of his defensive stance. Then, Doncic attacked right, surging to the free-throw line in three dribbles and gathering to finish an open layup to tie the score. Alas, Doncic’s first step was too slow and wide to fully beat Holiday, allowing the Pelicans’ guard to chase him down for a thunderous block.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The second was on Oct. 29, 2019. With the shot clock dwindling and his Mavericks clinging to a one-point lead over the Nuggets, Doncic received the ball deep on the left wing against Gary Harris, Denver’s gritty shooting guard. With seven seconds on the shot clock, Doncic dangled a right-handed dribble while getting his feet in position to attack. After initially staying square, Harris opened his stance in response to Doncic’s quick first step. Doncic’s second and third steps then powered through the Nuggets’ guard, and by the time Harris swiped wildly from behind, it was too late.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was clear from Day 1 of Doncic’s rookie season that he could pass, shoot, and flummox opponents with his trickery. It was also clear he’d survive against quicker defenders, thanks to a less-traditional form of athleticism that was hiding in plain sight. But it’s those two plays that show the key to Doncic’s rapid growth from rookie sensation to possible MVP frontrunner at the ripe old age of 20. Doncic already possessed a gravity-defying Last Step. Now, he has a rapid First Step to go with it.
That newly minted first step is consistently getting him past defenders who he couldn’t shed last season. Doncic’s flexibility and deceleration may be elite, but he relied on both too often last season. As they did in Europe, spindly defenders crept into Doncic’s space and stayed connected to him as he slowly drove downhill. They weren’t bigger than Doncic, but they were quicker and could stay in front of him — or at least beside him. They made drives like this difficult.
Tumblr media
Doncic produced many funky finishes last year, but relying on trickery alone only gets a player so far. He was not a great one-on-one player, often failing to get by smaller and bigger defenders alike. Tons of possessions ended with Doncic side-stepping and/pump-faking to nowhere, like a pigeon reaching down for bread.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That also neutralized Doncic’s superb vision. Why would Zach LaVine rotate off Dorian Finney-Smith if Doncic can’t get past Justin Holiday?
Tumblr media
Doncic’s Last Step and touch around the hoop sometimes bailed him out, but his slow first step forced him to take difficult shots from the court’s most efficient area. Last year, Doncic converted 62 percent of his restricted area shots and 55.5 percent of his layups — decent numbers, but unspectacular. He also generated points on less than 51 percent of his drives, putting him 20th out of 27 players who averaged at least 12 such plays a game. It’s hard to shoot well around the basket taking so many layups in traffic. Even when Doncic did elude his primary defender, he expended so much energy that he didn’t have much left to generate the power necessary to finish against tough rim protectors.
Tumblr media
In a narrow sense, Doncic’s predraft critics were right last year. He did lack the quick first step the best of the best possess. While that’s very different than saying he’s not athletic, it was a weakness that affected his game.
Well, it did last year at least. This year, not so much. Now, Doncic leaves dudes in the dust repeatedly, like this.
Tumblr media
And this.
Tumblr media
And while this shot somewhat resembles Doncic’s Houdini layups of last year, it’s made much easier because he surged quickly by Anthony Davis and took him out of the play with a hard drive into his recovery angle.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Doncic looks to be in better condition this year, and his feet are reaping the benefits of that work. The looping routes of last year that allowed defenders like Holiday to recover have been replaced by tight, straight lines that cover more ground with fewer steps. Doncic’s first step this year turns defenders and leads to him going forward, not sideways.
Tumblr media
Armed with a legitimate First Step to go along with his elite Last Step, Doncic is creating easy looks for himself and teammates. He’s converted 73 percent of his restricted area shots this year and is fairing even better on shots classified specifically as layups. Better yet, he’s shooting a sizzling 67 percent on more than 18 drives to the basket a game — only one other player that posts 10 drives a game is even shooting better than 60 percent on such plays.
He can still toss in soft floaters, but now, he doesn’t have to. That’s how he’s averaging over 30 a game despite being best known for passing.
Not that his playmaking has suffered, of course. It’s a whole lot easier for Doncic to show off his supernatural vision when he’s able to get past the first line of defense.
Tumblr media
And it’s a whole lot easier for Doncic to set up his stepback three as a counter to a rapid first step. rather than the reverse scenario.
Tumblr media
So what happens when a gifted Last Stepper develops the first step critics have forever panned him for lacking? You get the next face of the league threatening to seize the throne far sooner than even his most enthusiastic supporters expected.
CLOSEOUT OF THE WEEK
Three-point shooting is essential, yet there’s no good stat that credits defenders for the essential act of preventing a three-pointer from being taken. We must reward these efforts.
Tumblr media
I once called Pascal Siakam “the scariest closeout artist in the league.” This defensive possession against the Jazz is pure art.
REBOUND JOUST OF THE WEEK
Last year, I wrote about the rising trend of teammates fighting each other for defensive rebounds. These moments usually end harmlessly, but occasionally, they can cost a team. Here’s to over-aggression!
Tumblr media
Denver ended up losing this game in overtime, so this botched defensive board was a bad omen.
