Sunny in MH AU!

I present to you Sunny in BNHA!

Full Name: Cyrus ‘Sunny’ Shoku Occupation: Hero (formerly), Orphanage caretaker (Former) Hero title: Sunny Side Hero: Sundrop Age: 32 Quirk: Moondrop Orientation: Demisexual

Hair Color: Blond hair Skin color: Vitiligo skin, pale and tanned Eye color: Sky blue Nationality: Half Persian, half Japanese Other accessories: None at the moment

Family: Unknown Father, Unknown Mother

Orphanage ‘nieces’ and ‘nephews’: Micheal, Elizabeth, Evan, Katie Beth, Hugo, Kimmy, Gabriel, Jeremy, Susie, Fritz, Cassidy, Charlie

Friends: Genesis (boss and older sister figure), Apo, Sammy, Aurora, Moony (sentient quirk), Present Mic, Aizawa, All Might

Enemies: League of Villains, Endeavor

Personality: Sunny is a guy as bright as his name! Always smiling and so creative, he adores taking care of the children and playing with them. He, along with Genesis, help out the kids with their quirks, teaching them how to efficiently control them. Moony, his sentient quirk entity, is more of a prankster. He loves the children as much as Sunny does but he also loves to scare them, not too bad, but enough to make them jump from where they are. While Sunny takes care of the kids while they are awake, Moony watches over them when they are asleep. Despite being taller, he is still younger than Genesis so she sees him as a child and at times even puts him in time out. Even when Sunny tells her he won’t go into time out, she is able to just pick him up and put him in the corner. Sunny has OCD so you may find him cleaning a lot at times.

Fun fact: Sunny cried the first time he held baby Susie and him randomly crying made Gen think she accidentally used her power on him.

His design is based off of @shandzii​ human Sunny’s design! It is very beautiful so I knew my Sunny had to look as nice as their Sunny (although their Sunny looks better, obvi-)

I loved all six seasons of this is us, even when the show was getting in my nerves I was having a good time!

That being said, let's talk about how all the Pearsons were unrealistic hopeless romantics who repeatedly made shitty decisions when it came to love! ☺️☺️

So first of all...Jack and Rebecca, honestly I think they were both equally flawed so I don't have much to say there. As for Rebecca and Miguel? Damn I hate that couple loool. Miguel is a snake of a beat friend for getting with Rebecca after Jack died. It was giving "ice always loved her" vibes and it gives me the ick. He should have used all the effort he gave to Rebecca and the Pearson on his first wife and kids that's he treated so garbage the first time around smh

Beth and Randall - I love Randal SOOOO much but Beth was effectively a saint for dealing with his shenanigans for 20 years. He was just soooo much, his heart was in the right place though so I let some of his tomfoolery slide.

Then we have Katie girl who destroyed Katoby after years of showing us how they could go the distance. I have not and WILL NOT forgive Kate for ruining her marriage with Toby idc Idc Idc. He wasn't perfect but he was much closer to it than she was that's for sure! I hate that the show acted like his perfectly reasonable concerna and arguments were wrong just further the narrative that Kate was "growing". Ughh

Don't let me even start with the fact that her shan of a relationship with Philip came out of absolutely no where and half of the final season was dedicated to Kate's breakup then second marriage. I actually like Philip but the writing for him was all over the place and their relationship made no sense whatsoever.

For the last member of the big 3 we have Kevin......um okay I guess. The show was all over the place with what they wanted for his endgame - Sophie? Maddison? Cassidy? Zoe? He was obssessed with finding love and due to behind the scene issues, the writers keeps fluctuating with giving him a sense of direction. Everything with Maddison feels so pointless after the ending getting him back with Sophie.....which I wouldn't have hated if it wasn't so clear that all the decisions about her character were based on the actress' pregnancy and availability. I will give them props for making Cassidy his best friend though because I LOVE their dynamic.

Outside of the adult Pearsons we also had Deja and Malik and lord knows I hate them as a couple so much. I don't know why Deja couldn't get an easy love. Why did she had to be a stepmom at 15? Ughhh

Well if you enjoyed my rant then you'll probably also enjoy us talking about this topic on our podcast channel. Please watch, like and comment your thoughts! We love hearing from people 😁

Sway

(A Elvis Presley fanfic. A lot of the music I mention are by real artists but in this story they’re sung by my characters)

“Please Ms.Gild, i implore you not to miss this golden opportunity; one I know you would not want to miss” Tom Parker said in a sing song tone, but a small underlying sense of taunting lined his lips.

“Come on Jadyn!! We could have our big break!” A young woman named Cassidy pleaded to her friend. Cassidy sat on the left of this girl tugging on her arm to emphasize her point.

“Please Jadie! We can’t preform without you”The girl on the right who was named Katie squeezing Jadyn’s hand.

“Fine… I guess” Jadyn said cracking under the pressure and caving into her friends will.

“Good, good. You girls will be on the road tomorrow night. I’m happy to have you in the team” Tom Parker said in a chipper but creepy tone, and putting his hand out for Jadyn to shake.

Jadyn shook the man’s hand, uneasy about not just herself and her decision but the vibe that Tom Parker gives off. Once Jadyn pulled away from the hand shake her and her friends had been quick to leave to get ready.

These girls had lived in Bandera Texas. They all go to school together, when they were juniors in high school they had made a small girl group. They called themselves The Birdies. These girls all danced and sang for the town. Cassie was the main singer, Katie was the costume designer and maker and Jadyn was the main dancer. They had been preforming for a town gathering and Tom Parker had seen them and wanted them to be part of his traveling show, wanting them to preform alongside Hank Snow, and Elvis Presley. Katie and Cassie were quick to agree but it took Jadyn a bit of convincing. When the girls had agreed they were quick to pack their stuff. Their families where very supportive and so was the community.

“Can you believe it Jadie! Us on a real stage!” Katie beamed while packing her outfits she had planned for the girls.

“It’s not a real stage, just a different stage in other small towns” Cassie said in a more calm and stoic tone.

“I knowww but still, our name is gonna be out there!” Katie continued not letting her cheeriness be wavered by Cassie.

“But what if they don’t like us?” Jadyn asked in a worried tone, looking over her suitcase.

“They’re gonna love us, don’t attract the storm before it rains” Katie said in a snappy tone but it was masked by a caring manner.

Jadyn stayed quiet the rest of the night, just thinking about how uneasy by the thought of her leaving and preforming for new people she didn’t know at all. In the following morning Katie and Cassie were ecstatic, seeing their cars outside of their houses and piling in their luggages. When they were on the road all of the girls were in separate cars and riding along side the giant caravan of cars who all follow one another. They were on the road for about four hours and was in a much bigger town. The cars had stopped at a motel and all the performers and staff piled out of the cars. When the girls emerged from their cars, Katie was quick to practically sprint over to Jadyn and engulf her into a tight hug. Cassie followed behind Katie and just watched the two girls hug.

“The hard parts over! All we need to do now is do what we do best!” Katie beamed out and was practically shaking from excitement.

“Well I wouldn’t say it’s over” Jadyn said with a small laugh calming herself down with her friends presence. Jadyn felt eyes being stuck on her and her eyes flicker over to who was looking at her. It was Elvis.

Cassie and Katie were in love with Elvis, and Jadyn had enjoyed him too, but she didn’t wanna be a crazy fan girl. Jadyn’s attention was pulled back towards her friends when they announced they were heading to their rooms. Jadyn followed behind but doing a small and quick double take at Elvis, checking to see if he was still staring.

The three girls had a room to themselves. They had started to get a small set list ready. Three songs; dances being part of all of them. Katie wanted to start out strong so they were gonna be decked out in their best outfits and doing their best choreography. These girls only knew how to sing country but with a little bit more of a upbeat style.

“So I’m thinking we start out in the white dresses but have the bird dresses under them” Katie said in a critical manner.

“Really? Like when would we reveal them, it’s too hot for us to preform in two dresses?” Cassie asked unpacking the dresses from her suitcase.

“Well what if we do the first song in the white, then halfway through the second song we reveal them. A perfect half n half show” Katie replied her tone being of upmost confidence.

“Well won’t we look like show girls? The bird dresses are a bit much, are we using the fans?” Jadyn asked looking at the dresses Cassie started to lay out.

“Well it’s a test run, we have real talent with us now. They’ll tell us if it’s too much” Katie started to grab her dress not wavering her decision at all.

The two others had agreed to the plan and got dressed. They helped put makeup on each other, and do each other’s hair. They warmed up their voices and went over the dance routine. Once it was time to leave for the fairgrounds the reality had set in.

Seeing the crowd and the stage started to edge the girls. Nervousness shown on their faces and their eyes couldn’t stay locked on anything. They all stood behind the stage along side their crew and other members of the travel show. Jadyn watched and listened to Hank Snow, appreciating his voice and talent even though the crowd watching was obviously bored. Katie and Cassie had spotted Elvis and were anxiously talking to him, fan hurling over him.

Once Hanks set had ended the three girls were ushered to the stage. They stood at their three microphones and waited for the stage lights. Katie stood in the middle, Cassie to her right and Jadyn to her left. Once the lights came on and their band started playing the three girls let smiles plaster their lips and their song Dynamite started.

Once they got in the groove of the song, they took the microphones out of their stands and started their dance. Flowing in all one motion and their voices rang out, their southern twang echoing through their words. Their energy and voices got the men in the crowd whistling and cheering and their girls in the crowd also got in a swinging mood. The girls weaved around each other, each girl having their time to shine in the front of the stage.

Once their first song had ended they had been engulfed with cheers and whistles. Their faces had brightened up and they started the next song. They moved around to where Katie was in front and the two were in the back. When the song started up it was slower and in a much more of a sultry tone but it was still an upbeat song. Katie’s voice was in control of the first verse and she was basically gliding over the edge of the stage, flirting and winking at the men in the crowd and once her verse was almost finished she had shimmied her white dress off to show a smaller slightly off white dress with small feathers lining the fabric. The exposure of her skin made the men go wild and once the chorus started up the three had gotten in the line and did a more in sync group dance.

The second verse came on and Cassie was front and center, her verse was more loving and she was more engaged with the crowds upbeat energy. Her dance was fast and was more simplistic and she was more focused on the energy she wanted to give off. It was now time for her dress reveal and so she seamlessly had loosened her dress and kicked it off into the crowd. Her dress was black but shimmered with purple and deep blues in the harsh stage light. The men had the same reaction to her now much shorter dress. Once her verse had ended she blew a kiss to the crowd. Now it had been Katie and Cassie on the ends of the line and Jadyn was in the middle. The only one left in her white dress.

While in the line Katie and Cassie had sneakily loosened Jadyn’s dress. Once it came time for her verse she started out slow, the crowd enticed by her voice but she seamlessly turned it to a loud and booming voice. Her words were a perfect blend of sultry but fun. Jadyn’s dance was much more intricate but to the crowd it was like she was hypnotizing them. Men were glued to her, feeling like she was a siren calling them out to sea. Her verse was coming to a close so to make her reveal she spun herself perfectly in a circle and it made her dress fall and fly across the floor of the stage and when her spin had finished the crowd awed at her dress. It was a royal blue with gold trim and she had a small peacock feather train on the back of her dress. With every move and spin you could see the beautiful feathers and the sparkling gold enamored the crowd.

The song had finished and the roar of the crowd was bigger. The girls were ecstatic at the reaction and had prepared themselves for their last song. This song was a hype upbeat love song and was a song made more mostly singing and small instances of dace for the majority of the song. But for the last verse a intricate swing dance was done between the three. All of them still singing their hearts out and not failing to miss a beat.

Once the song was over they had gotten into a line once more and bowed to the cheering crowd. Men were reaching their hands out to the girls and they had sweet smiles on their faces and small giggles left their lips. They waved and blew kisses to the crowd as they left the stage. The adrenaline was still in the girls as they stand back stage. They hugged each other in excitement and small squeals left their lips. Their excitement was cut off when Tom Parker approached them, a smile was on his face but it unnerved Jadyn. 

“Beautiful show ladies, you blew them away with that dress reveal of yours. I knew you’d be a perfect fit for this” he complemented and Katie and Cassie’s faces lit up with happiness. Jadyn was happy too but Parker unnerved her and always made her feel uneasy but she wouldn’t let him ruin her happiness in this moment.

The girls watched in awe as Elvis preformed, he was a sight to see in person. His dance was much different then theirs, and his songs had reached a different level. Katie and Cassie were practically squealing the entire time but Jadyn even let out a excited giggle or laugh while watching him. Once his set was over he was a bright and laughing mess. He had a good show and the girls could tell he enjoyed himself. Once he got back stage he was quick to approach the girls.

“Mighty fine set of moves you ladies got. I gotta say you really know how to move” he said with a playful smile.

“Well Jadyn is the one who makes all our decisions when it comes to dancing” Cassie said in a giddy tone. Jadyn’s face had flushed when Cassie called her out and a small laugh erupted from Elvis once again.

“So you’re the mastermind behind the dance. Pretty impressed with you” Elvis said looking at her with a warm smile putting his hand out for her to shake. “Elvis”

“Jadyn Gild” She said shaking his hand with a blush. “You’re show was amazing, I’ve heard about your moves it’s nice to finally see them up close” she continued in a more confident manner.

“Ah well I don’t think I can compete with a beauty like you” Elvis flirted in a softer tone and Jadyn smiled at him. “So lemme guess, you’re a dove” he said pointing at Katie, “you’re a raven” he continued now pointing at Cassie and she was quick to nod in reply. “And you, you are the beautiful peacock” he finished with a playful smirk.

“How observant” Jadyn teased with a soft smile.

“Well I couldn’t keep my eyes off you darlin, so I had to notice you and you’re golden beauty” he said in a softer tone, but still very much in a flirty manner.

“Oh really, well I’m honored we could catch your attention” she replied, but glanced over at her friends and could see the jealousy bubbling in their expression. Her tone shifted and continued, “It was nice to finally meet you, we look forward to preforming more alongside you” she finished and left the man and joined her friends.

The girls had left and went back to their motel room. There was a thick fog of tension between the girls as they undress and wipe away their makeup. Heavy sighs of relief left the girls as they slipped off their shoes and put their hair down and got into their beds. Katie and Cassie had a bed and Jadyn was alone in her own bed. She felt bad, she knew how much they liked Elvis and Jadyn knows it must’ve hurt to see the man they adored pay attention to someone else.

The tour continued on. A different show for every town the girls stopped in. Men had loved the girls and after every show there was a crowd of them asking for autographs or kisses. Katie and Cassie reveled in the attention and even Jadyn indulged in the new found attention she had gotten. She had finally gotten more used to the show life on the road and constantly preforming. She was out of her shell and much more comfortable and confident, being her much more true self. Elvis and the girls had became close friends but Elvis had a soft spot for Jadyn. Katie and Cassie hated it at first but got over it once their fans had filled that attention seeking void they had for Elvis. The girls had started to fend of men from their motel rooms and soon they all started to get their own rooms.

Tom Parker had noticed the talent and attraction that Jadyn had brought. He knew she was a crowd favorite and when she started to be outgoing, her popularity had risen as well. There was a night where Cassie had caught a sickness from a guy she had been seeing so she was lacking and falling behind in the show. Jadyn had been told by Katie to pick up her slack and with doing that Jadyn was basically the star of the group ever since that day. The nickname Golden Gild and Golden Girl had surrounded Jadyn. The new found popularity started to wedge between the girls but they all still loved each other and worked together. Elvis had picked up the nickname Jadie for Jadyn and now that’s all he calls her. Jadyn has always felt bad for stealing Elvis’s attention so she tried not to get too close with him.

One night after a show the whole crew were out and about at a small fair. Cassie and Katie had found their boy toys for the night and brought them along for the night at the fair. Jadyn didn’t really indulge in the dating scene. She never liked the idea of dating while on the road, she was more of a lasting relationship kinda girl. Well on this night the girls where split up and Jadyn was hanging around with Elvis and his crew. Unbeknownst to Jadyn Tom Parker had talked to Katie and Cassie and told them that their tour was over. He planned on cutting the show down to just Elvis. Katie and Cassie were furious and had left the carnival afterwards. Cassie had tried to find Jadyn to bring her along but couldn’t find her so she just planned to see her in the morning while they packed up to leave. After the two girls and their dates had left, Tom sought out Jadyn. He had found her in a small corn maze. He had noticed how empty the maze was so he decided to talk to her.

“Why hello Jadyn, I’m glad you are able to find some fun for the night. I wanted to talk to you about your future” Parker said, his condescending tone throwing Jadyn off.

“My… future?” She asked in confusion looking at him.

“Well it’s obvious you are a star. You’re the Golden Gild, the girl the crowd has had their eyes on ever since you opened your mouth on stage” Parker’s tone slowly scaled up into a more excited tone and this started to worry Jadyn slightly.

“What are you telling me?” Worry laced her words, making it apparent she was scared for the worst.

“My girl, I want you as a solo act. Those other girls are nice, but they’re like eye candy. Taste of the fruit, men know they can’t get you so they go for the next best thing” his words pissed Jadyn off. His subtle insults to her friends slowly making her more angry with every syllable that leaves his lips.

“I can’t preform without them, without them I’m just nothing” Jadyn said trying to make it seem like she was calm.

“You’ve been the star of every show, the spotlight has always shun brightly on you my girl. Besides you’re friends have already left you, they don’t want nothing to do with you anymore. The fame and attention is all they want, but you. You want to express yourself, just imagine how far you could go if you just have yourself room to fly” he said, but it sound more like he was taunting Jadyn. She had reached her limit with his words.

“What do you know! They’d never leave me! You can take your solo act somewhere else!” Jadyn stated in frustration and anger and stormed off.

Jadyn spend a solid hour walking around trying to find her friends. Even finding a pay phone to call them but neither of them answered. This made Jadyn think of the worse case scenario. She didn’t wanna accept that Parker was right but doubt and fear set in. If they were pissed off and didn’t want anything to do with her, she can’t go home. They’d shun her and maybe even turn the town on her. After a few minutes of thought, Jadyn went out to look for Parker. She had noticed him leaving the Farris wheel, and Jadyn awkwardly approached him. Her head down, almost in defeat.

“I’ll take your offer for the solo act” Jadyn stated in a defeated tone. A big devilish grin appeared on Toms face and he put out his hand for Jadyn.

“Well my girl, it will be a pleasure to work with you” he said, it was like he was declaring a victory over her. Jadyn had shook his hand, a satisfied smile washing over Toms face. After the hand shake he had continued. “Now all you need to do is get your daddy’s permission to let me be your manager and to let me take of you. Now that won’t be a problem now will it”

“No sir… it shouldn’t be a problem” Jadyn answered, her tone still dejected but she agreed.

Jadyn had joined back up with Elvis, trying to have fun the rest of the night to distract herself from her decision she just made. She planned to tell Elvis about it tomorrow, but for now she just needed a distraction. After staying at the fair for a long time and being out late, Elvis and Jadyn had finally gone back to the motel. Elvis was clingy with her this night, and much more flirty than he’s ever been. Jadyn played along for the time being but at the motel she just wanted to sleep. The two split off into their own rooms. They had been in their rooms for about an hour until Jadyn’s phone had rang. When she answered and found it was Elvis who was calling her she was shocked. He spoke in a soft tone but small whines left his lips every once in a while. He was almost pleading for her to come over to his room. Jadyn had agreed not thinking about how Elvis might’ve been having ulterior motives. Jadyn had been let into Elvis’s room and he smiled upon her arrival. The two sat on the edge of the bed next to one another. A soft silence enveloped the both of them till Elvis had spoken up.

“You seemed off tonight, something happen Jadie?” He asked not looking at her but his genuine tone made it known he was being serious.

“It was Parker. He… I agreed to becoming a solo act. I feel horrible, I don’t wanna hurt them” Jadyn stated guilt plaguing her voice.

“Oh Jadie. I know that must be rough for ya. You grew up with them girls, I know it wasn’t a easy decision. But look at it this way Jadie, you get to be your own girl now. You get to preform, sing, dress and dance all your way now. You’re gonna grow into the star you’re meant to be” Elvis said softly now facing her. His was bore into hers and it seems almost hypnotic to her. His words and his look calms her down and makes it seem like everything really will be alright.

“Thanks Elvis, you always know the right thing to say when I’m down” She replied with a small smile.

“Of course don’t wanna see a pretty bird such as you, look so blue” his tone was sincere but flirty. He used his hand to guid her face to look up at him. A small blush crept onto her face at his actions.

A small silence was washed over the two till he leaned in closing his eyes and placing a soft kiss to her lips. Jadyn was slightly surprised at his actions but couldn’t enjoy it. She had pulled herself away with a sigh.

“I can’t Elvis. I’ve got too much on my mind, so nows not a good time” she says in a soft but gentle manner not to hurt his feelings. His face had saddened for a second as he saw her stand back up. He looked up at her with a pleading look almost not desperation. “Thank you for everything, but I gotta go to bed. I’ll see you tomorrow Elvis” she finished with a smile looking down at him before she swiftly had left his room.

Jaydn could barley sleep, her mind going back and fourth between Elvis and her friends. In the morning she had watched Cassie and Katie packing their bags and leaving in their cars. She hid behind her curtains and watching from her window, debating just running out of her room and joining the other girls. She watched Elvis and his crew hug and wish the girls goodbye. Guilt wracked up inside Jadyn, she felt sick and didn’t wanna watch anymore. Jadyn laid down on her bed and buried her head into her pillow, tears flowed down her cheeks.

It had been hours, and Jadyn basically refused to leave her room and or even leave her bed. Unexpectedly to Jadyn Parker had knocked on her door and let himself into her room. Jadyn’s red and swollen face looked back at Tom and he let out a small expression of annoyance but masked it with a fake look of concern and or sympathy.

“My girl, why cry. You’re a star there’s no need for tears” Tom rang out almost like a sales pitch, trying to make it seem like he’s trying to make her feel better.

“I don’t think I can do this. I’ve never been alone like this before” she replied in a cracking voice.

“You’re not alone my girl. You have me and Elvis. You’re just as much as a star as you were yesterday, and the day before” he stated in a reaffirming manner then continued, ”now tonight’s your solo debut so now, clean yourself up and wipe those tears. Your fans won’t wanna see you like this Jadie”

“Okay..” Jadyn agreed in a dreary manner and wiped her nose and cheeks to dry her face.

Tom Parker had left and Jadyn had gotten herself ready. She wore a white leather vest with golden trim and white leather tassel on the back. Alongside the vest she had a white leather skirt and matching white cowboy boots. White trim lined her entire outfit and she added a small golden scarf onto her neck and a white and gold cowboy hat to finish off the outfit. Jadyn could barley look at herself in the mirror while she put on her golden plated makeup. When she finished getting ready she left her room seeing her car at her ready. While getting into the car she had glanced over to Elvis’s room and saw him exiting his room. Elvis flashed her a warm smile but all Jadyn could give back was a weak wave and a slight smile.

When she arrived to the small theater, every chair filled with people. The nervousness hit Jadyn like a wave, a feeling she hasn’t had since her first show on this tour. The curtains where closed and Jadyn stepped on that stage. She had been given a simple guitar and she stood at the microphone. The stage felt huge and empty, she looked to her left and right hoping to see Cassie and Katie. When she got the cue that the curtains where gonna rise in a moment, Jadyn started to panic. She frantically looked around the stage, her eyes landed on Parker, and he gestured to his lips and gave a wide smile. Jadyn picked up on his message and looked out in front of her and plastered a smile. It took all her strength to not cry, focusing on her lips and making sure her smile does not waver.

When the curtains rose her breath escaped from under her. She looked out at the crowd for a few seconds, her heart beating in a fast and frantic pace. She started to tap her foot to the beat of her heart. Her band picking up on the temp and they followed along. Jadyn had started to sing a fast and upbeat song, her voice beaming out and flowing throughout the theater. Her dance was more fast paced and wide spread. She enjoyed getting to be free and getting into the dance more. Jadyn had formed a rhythm and started to get lost in the music and dance.

Once Jadyn set was starting to end she had gotten wrapped up in the moment and her last song had a long instrumental break and so she had quickly given her guitar to a band member and went to the edge of the stage and looked around at the excited men practically reaching out for her. She grabbed a man’s hand and pulled him up on the stage and had lead a swing dance between the two. After a few moments he had picked up on the dance and she let him take the lead. The twirls and spins were graceful and had a sense of beauty to them. Once the song had finished, she had placed a kiss onto his lips and let him leave the stage. Jadyn was breathless and a giant smile was on her lips. She bowed to her crowd as they roared her name. Once the curtain fell she left the stage. Tom looked at her with a excited smile and hugged the girl.

“You see Jadie! They love you! You’re the golden girl” he said and she smiled in comfort from his words.

After the hug Jadyn had left Tom to go backstage to get some water she was surprised by reviving a hug from Elvis. A bright and excited smile was on his face when looking down at Jadyn.

“You did amazing Jadie. You really now how to get a crowd goin” he said with a playful smile. Blush was plastered on Jadyn’s face and not knowing what to say.

“Thank you, I can’t believe the show actually went well” she replied in a slightly flustered tone.

“Of course it would go well, when the split lights on you, the crowds gotta roar” he said in a tone of admiration.

Jadyn wasn’t able to respond since Elvis was rushed onto stage. Jadyn felt entranced by him and decided to watch his performance. She had taken notes of his movements and thinks of a dance she could do with Elvis. She blushed at the thought of the two dancing together. After his set was done Elvis had B lined for Jadyn. She smiled at him and hugged him, he was happy to hug her back.

The two hung out for the rest of the night. Jadyn was swayed into liking this new lifestyle of preforming on her own. The next couple weeks were amazing. Great show after great show. Jadyn and Elvis had become great friends, Jadyn could tell Elvis was still wanting to advance with her but she knew that she couldn’t get with him, since she sees him let girls into his hotel room almost every night.

The traveling show had taken a break and Elvis implored Jadyn to go with him to his hometown to stay with his family. Jadyn had agreed and went to meet his father and mother. His parents had at first thought the two were dating but sadly to Elvis, Jadyn had shut the idea down. Even with that his parents loved Jadyn and the family had gotten close in what little time that they had with each other. Elvis and Jadyn were happy, happy to just be with each other and to have their own time with each other. But as quick as they came Tom Parker let them know that they once again had to go back on the road.

(Stay tuned for pt.2 😌)

Last Song:  Hell N Back - Bahkar (it was playing on WXRT)

Last Film: This is Where I Leave You. My spouse really wanted to watch a movie and it sounded decent. It was actually pretty good.

Currently Reading (or last read): I currently have a list of about 20 unfinished fics I'm reading right now, lol. There are several that I think were abandoned, though.

As for books, I just started When Katie Met Cassidy the other day and just finished They Hate Each Other, which was super cute

Currently Watching: Love (Netflix), Sister Wives, The Wilds, various YouTubers (my spouse is really into a lot of interior design/DIY channels and I have my various commentary folks I like to watch). And I'm always watching a little bit of Heartstopper here and there because I can't get enough of Nick and Charlie.

Current Obsession: My Nick Nelson in the rain cross stitch. It's finally starting to look like something besides a sea of 415 with random splotches, so I'm very motivated to keep going.

I'm normally more of a knitter, but I just haven't been into it much lately except during my 2 virtual knit groups.

top 5 albums??

laurel....... i love you.

CURRENTLY??? aka the albums featured most heavily in my personally crafted playlists these past few months

gag order - kesha happy i would quite honestly die for you. you are on REPEAT baby girl

dance fever - florence choreomania and daffodil im holding your hands until the end of time. also mermaids but thats technically a b-cut i guess

tell me i'm alive - all time low you're in the car it's late at night you're listening to this album. u know what happiness feels like.

high road - kesha i downloaded u in like 2021 and u still feature on like every playlist i make. love you forever and ever and ever.

mainstream sellout - mgk 100% blame my sister for my mgk phase whatever this album bangs and again i downloaded u in like 2021 and you're still making it onto like all of my playlists. thanks.

OF ALL TIME????? uhhhh

two lefts don't make a right... but three do - relient k (cos i was raised in a christian household and was not allowed to listen to non-christian music so relient k and superchic[k] and switchfoot pretty much owned me. also they all still slap i fuckin still listen to them regularly! they feel like home and childhood, especially this album? also their christmas album is one of the first ones i break out every november/decemeber)

so wrong it's right - all time low (cos they were like the first band i "discovered" when i started listening to non-christian music when i was like 11 or 12 or whatever and this album really REALLY changed the course of my life in MANY ways. like i don't even know the girl i'd be today if i that fake dylan efron on myspace didn't have dear maria as their myspace song. its been like 16 years now and me and my sister were just having a breakdown last night trying to organise seeing them again cos they finally dropped aus tour dates. all cos of this silly album. literally again they feel like homeeeee

between two lungs - florence and the machine (cos when i was a young little dumbass and in my supernatural phase aka when i was like 13, i watched a ship video on youtube between dean winchester (supernatural) and trish wellington (harper's island) becos i wasnt aware of me being #bi yet but i was slightly obessed with ruby 1.0 on supernatual who was played by katie cassidy so naturally i went through and watched like. all of her shit. and this ship video had blinding - florence as the song and i was like. oh this is it. this is me entering a new phase of my life. and i was right. and over the years i dragged my sister in it with me and we've seen her every time she comes to aus together and everytime blinding comes on in the car my sisters like 'idk why you love this song so much but yes we can listen to it. even though she has better songs' anyway. feels like home x3)

idk i could probably put kesha or mgk in here as well given the #stats of my last two year reviews on apple music and just the patten of songs in all the playlists i've made in the past 2+ years but it's still too soon. they're still fresh in my heart. and i'm too baby to commit. yet. and i know there's like homesick - adtr and can't stop won't stop - the maine and even the fucking high school musical soundtrack but like. idk nothing really deserves to be on the same tier as those three above so. TOP THREE BABY.

top 5 actors

Lau. I don't know why you think I know these people's names. Well, shit. Can't I just list 5 black sails characters?

Okay.

1- Denzel Washington.

I know people keep saying he plays the same roles over and over, but I've seen the Glory. I've seen clips of Malcom X. I've seen Much Ado About Nothing. I've seen Remember the Titans. Denzel Washington is an AcTEUR. The Bone Collector! And yall can suck my toes. And not in a way that'd be fun for toe enjoyers.

2- Jessica Parker Kennedy

Fight me. I know YOU won't fight me. But fight me. For Max alone she deserves it. But I really love the difference between the Noras. She needs something with Recognition. Since Award Seasons was too busy smelling GOT farts to pay attention to Black Sails.

3- Yoo In-na

I've loved her since Touch Your Heart. And her drunk scene in Bo-ra! Deborah! really got me. I wanted to watch the show because of her and I love her character. I love what she brings to her -- the pain and the heartache and the struggles. I heard she was so good in Snowdrop but I don't know that I want to see it. I need her to be in more shit, so I can follow. I'm going to watch te Goblin (eventually) for her and Lee Dong-wook

I honestly can't say she is my top three EVER, but she's my top three right NOW. I feel a lot of feelings when this woman's characters break down. And she does dead eye, completely stripped down stare so well. Whew.

4. lndira Varma

Only lower on the list, because unlike In-na and Jessica -whom I have watched/returned to things for - most of Indira's stuff have come CLOSE to watching for her. Which mostly have to do with how tired/busy/etc I am or if the show was too white for me to tolerate than the level of her skill. She, JPK, and probably Denzel would make it on any 'forever faves' list I had (and that too would not be in order).

5. Katie Cassidy

Sue me. I started Arrow for her. She was my favorite Ruby. I adored Laurel. I don't know man, she deserves recognition.

Top Five.

Learning to love books again

Book: When Katie Met Cassidy

Author: Camille Perri

Warning! Some vague plot spoilers ahead!

Feelings: Holy shit, that was a wild ride. Sweet, and funny, but wild all the same- just like Cassidy ;)

Without being too specific, my heart was so on the edge towards the end, I was so invested in these two getting a good ending. Even if things go wrong, and arguments are had, I am absolutely overjoyed at the last scene. There are so many people who would say that, "it isn't realistic", "happy endings are bad," and all I wanna say is:

Fuck you, very politely

My heart is still beating so fast out of past fear that things wouldn't get resolved, and whilst I understand that people don't always want to read books with a happy, or at least, hopeful ending, I sure as fuck do and it sure as fuck feels like a good ending for the book- and from an in-universe perspective- a good lead into the next chapter of their lives.

I feel so happy for them, and for finishing another book (woop!), and I can gladly say that my time was well-spent! Now to cry because I just love these two ladies too much and thw book, like all books do, sadly, has come to an end.

Parting is such sweet sorrow, etc., etc.,- actually, fuck that, I'll write them some stories of my own imagination, if I can :)

Can I bring back the list of muses I’d love for people to pick up? I’m bringing it back...

Bobby Drake / Iceman (for Aimee)

Bobby’s latest boyfriend (for Aimee)

Nathan Cassidy (for Aimee, Sandra, and Emma...and Katie – he’s pretty much an NPC at this point so other than his family and gf, his details are open; also any mental casting I’ve done is obvs just that. Feel free to change FCs.)

Sean Cassidy (for Sandra and Emma and a little bit Aimee & Katie)

Gambit (as I have now added Belle and Maddie to my muse list)

Chris LeBeau (for Belle and Sandra and Maddie)

Aaron Lensheer (for Belle)

Any of the other X-Kids

Actually let's talk about the racism both Juliana and the character of Dinah Drake faced at the hands of the show and the fandom.

1. Is hated simply for holding the name Dinah and the mantle Black Canary. And don't tell me that it's because they botched the history of the Canary legacy. Because, sorry to say, the mantle is so fucking convoluted anyways. Did you know that Dinah Drake and Dinah Lance used to both be the same person? Or that the Canary Cry was originally a wizard's curse? So yeah, it's not about story inaccuracy. And it ain't about the hair colour either, cause both Laurel AND Dinah Drake from the comics had naturally dark hair.

2. The marketing of Green Arrow and the Canaries whitewashed Dinah and gave her blonde hair, and so does multiple fanarts of both Arrow!Dinah and DinahSiren.

From Guggie himself.

Come to think of it, they botched Mia's design too. Where's the curls? The hood and mask? Even the suit looks drastically different.

As for DinahSiren, I dare you to look up fanart and try to find a single one within the first twenty that has Dinah with skin darker than Laurel.

Also, ngl, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the reason Dinah was never considered as a love interest for Oliver, despite being one of the most prominent of them in the comics (yes, Ollie dated Dinah Drake too).

Just thought I'd bring this up since I've never seen it discussed and I've just seen so much unjustified hate towards Dinah and Juliana from Laurel Lance/Katie Cassidy fans and Olicity fans alike.

My Redesign of Selina

I originally wasn't going to have Selina be in my version of Winx Club, even though I do like her and consider her to be the best of the post-season 3 villains. But because me and my girlfriend @keeloves keep on shipping Stormy and Selina together, I eventually decided to add her to my version of Winx Club and she appears in my version of season 5. For her body, I used Nani from Lilo and Stitch & the face of Vanessa from The Little Mermaid. For her base witch form, I took inspiration from Katie Cassidy's version of Dinah Laurel Lance. For her Dark Witch form, I took inspiration from Gerganafen and florianamar. She is the witch of reptiles and myths. So she not only has power over snakes but all reptiles, as well as to bring to life any creation from a story from The Legendarium.

As for the backstory I gave her, she was an orphan on Earth that grew up in the foster system of Gardenia. She was best friends with Bloom, who was the one shining light in her miserable life. However, at the age of 15, Bloom went away to Alfea (Because I'm having it as a four-year school, along with the other magic schools) and Selina was left alone.

She wasn't very good at making friends and was often the target of Mitzi's bullying. Her only friends were reptiles and she'd often read fairytales and stories about witches. She never saw Bloom after she went to Alfea because one day she got into a fight with Mitzi (Even somehow managing to get a snake to attack her, though not a poisonous one) and her foster family sent her back into the system. She was sent to another foster home outside of Gardenia. She became isolated and was bitter that her best friend left her without so much as a goodbye and she was alone having to deal with Mitzi. She didn't even have a way to contact Bloom.

When she turned 16, she was paid a visit from Mandragora. She explained to Selina that the incident with the snake attacking Mitzi wasn't just a freak accident. Mandragora revealed to Selina that she is a witch with the power to control reptiles and myths. She offered Selina the chance to learn magic from her. Selina was hesitant but she ultimately accepted the offer. She trained with Mandragora for years and learned that her friend Bloom was the fairy of the dragon flame, making her unbelievably powerful, not to mention she's a princess. She was envious of Bloom even when they were friends because of how Bloom had an easier time making friends and was adopted by a loving family. Knowing this and that Bloom had moved on to have new best friends made her envy turn to resentment and rage. She wanted to make Bloom pay for what she's done to her.

Unbeknownst to Selina, she's a creation of Mandragora. Centuries ago, before she and The Ancestral Witches were imprisoned in Obsidian, she had created an egg that would hatch when Bloom was found (Because Daphne had sent Bloom into the future as a baby to protect her) and would be sent to the location she'd be found on. It turned out to be Earth, so the egg was sent there after centuries of waiting and hatched into a little baby, Selina. All apart of The Ancestral Witches plan to help them escape from Obsidian and take over the entire universe.

And since I have Selina being the love interest to Stormy, they'd definitely bond over their terrible childhoods and how they grew up without a family to love them (Well, apart from after Stormy met Icy and Darcy).

I recently read your supernatural posts. Did you thought Sam/Ruby/Demon storyline was bad or something? Could you elaborate on that? I didn't think it was that bad. I quite liked Ruby. Her ending speech after Sam killed Lilith to jumpstart the apocalypse was cool!

I didn't like the direction they took with Ruby after Katie Cassidy left. I liked this Ruby

I thought she was a smart ass and she was kick ass while also being compelling and charismatic 

I wanted to know about her.

And it bothered me that Ruby’s personality changed when they switched actresses 

because a new body doesn’t mean a new character and when she tried to have some of that old smart mouth, the execution was all wrong 

which leads me to the next problem I had which was that I thought Gen was the most unconvincing actress, she annoyed me SO much

like this 

was nothing compared to what Katie naturally exuded 

I didn’t care for her speech when Sam killed Lilith because I didn’t believe her, she was trying way too hard

and I didn’t like that Ruby and Sam became sexual especially considering that while Gen and Jared weren’t physically awkward

they didn’t have any onscreen tension (i have many posts in my chemistry master list that discuss offscreen chemistry not necessarily translating to onscreen chemistry and vice versa so them being attracted to each other/in love off set has no bearing here)

so it just made it awkward and out of left field for me especially considering if they stuck with Katie’s Ruby, I don’t think it would’ve been sexual, I think she would’ve gotten in his head 

and psychologically manipulated him into drinking demon blood and killing Lilith which I find more interesting, I found this

to be lazy and low-hanging fruit.

[alwaysbeunknown]

i love gen so so much but i always thought that Katie Cassidy (ruby #1) was honestly a better ruby. idk if i got attached to the first ruby or i just like the ruby episodes in season 3 better but i just can’t help but see ruby as katie and not gen

(although gen is adorable and the family her and jared have make me beyond happy that her actress was switched just because they’re so cute together 🥺)
