#I love you Suzie but I will cut you /j

[imagination-confusion]

Not tryin' to start shit with the gang but Suzie you got somethin' to say? Say it to my face.

Come on. Don't be shy now.

What's wrong with me not talking? I ain't gonna take this disrespect sitting down. I whooped their asses back to back and I can whoop yours too without my doodles.

[manic-pixie-aquarius]

So I'm doing a season 3 rewatch and I've noticed some things (some ramblings about 3x01)

1. Hopper goes to Joyce and makes her write the heart-to-heart to Mike and El, nothing super significant about that alone (and of course Hopper actually ends up writing his own letter). I just think it's interesting how later on Will is the one to create a heart-to-heart "from El" to Mike... The Byers are always solving everyone else's problems lol, I love them but babe you needa focus on yourself and your happiness too😭

2. Also, when the party + El and Max are going up the hill to use Cerebro to talk to Suzie, Dustin mentions that Suzie is Mormon. He explains that: "her parents would never approve. It's all a bit Shakespearean. Like Romeo and Juliet. Star crossed lovers". I thought this was interesting because you could say the same about Mike and Will being gay in the 80's in a small town where being in a gay relationship does seem forbidden. And when Dustin says, "her parents would never approve" El is cut off from the frame... Idk the fact that she's the only one out of frame is interesting to me, especially since she's clinging right onto Mike's arm the whole scene. Instead, the two people in the back of the group who aren't engaging in the conversation are Mike and Will. Then she comes back into frame when Dustin mentions Romeo and Juliet. Now the thing about Romeo and Juliet is that it's regarded as a romantic tale, but I disagree with that perspective honestly... R + J love for each other is so intense and passion filled that they ignore everything else, even important things like family and other responsibilities. Their love is destructive, kind of like Mike and El's love. In Hopper's letter he mentions that he misses when he and El would spend time together and is feeling her distance because of her new relationship. Similar to how Will, Lucas, and Dustin recount that Mike is being super distant and annoying because he is neglecting the group to makeout with El all the time. Max opposes them by stating "It's romantic". Max is also the person who's been in the group the shortest amount of time, the boys who have known Mike since childhood state, "It's gross" and "it's bullshit". Mike is severely neglecting his friendships in the name of love, El is doing the same to her paternal figure.

3. Another thing I love about this season is how Lucas is quick to call out Mike on his bs. When Mike makes the excuse of "I was spending romantic time with my girlfriend" Lucas says "Yeah well I'm spending romantic time with MY girlfriend" (whilst still spending time with his friends) But it's also funny because Lucas is insinuating that this theater going experience is romantic, like everyone has pointed out by now, this was essentially a Byler + Lumax double date (like this scene didn't HAVE to happen, they could've waited until Dustin got back to see a movie together, and once Dustin does return we already see how neglectful Mike is being towards everyone. So, what was the point of this whole mall movie theater scene...well to establish the mall setting and the new characters, thats first and foremost, but it was also to show that Mike is still trying to at least put in some effort into his relationship to Will. It shows that he still cares and is at least kindaa keeping his promises from the previous season (making sure his best friend is feeling safe).

4. The hand grab Joyce does to Hopper to reassure him... Byler heart-to-heart vibes...

Question: Why aren't there more Nancy and Mike scenes when they share the same passion of writing???

Anyways this episode is just so funny honestly, I love how angry Hopper gets at Mike. All their scenes together in every season are so good. We missed out on those in season 4, I hope we get some more in s5

My Top 10 Albums of 2024

In this year i'm going to do something new, I'm not gonna rank the albums. This will include honorable mentions and EPs by the end so prepare for a long post

Green Day - Saviors

The year started with one of my favorite punk rock bands of all time dropping an album that I already consider a classic. It seems like every time the American political landscape is looking grim, Bille Joe, Mike and Tré release something cool to make our life a little bit more bearable. This album however is not perfect, there are some hits and misses here and there but nevertheless it's a really solid Green Day record.

Favorites: The American Dream is Killing Me, Dilemma, Suzie Chapstick, Strange Days are Here to Stay

Twenty One Pilots - Clancy

As someone who completely missed the SAI era of Twenty One Pilots, I was very pleasantly surprised when I listened to the singles for the first time. I mentally checked out from them after COVID happened but when Overcompensate dropped I felt like I need to check out the rest, and damn right I did. This record is more or less an homage to Trench, their most well-loved album by far. Many lovable singles and non-singles from two lovable dudes.

Favorites: Overcompensate, Next Semester, Routines in the Night, The Craving

Knocked Loose - You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To

Yeah I know, I used to hate on this band. Or I mean, hate is not the best word, more like I was indifferent when it comes to their music. But this year undoubtedly was one of their best and most successful one. This record is the definition of being pissed off. It's angry, pissed off at society, people, own thoughts, everything. The eery clean guitars, the hardcore breakdowns and the most pissed vocals ever recorded by man are all the reasons why this band is an acquired taste, but I finally found them like I would've found a religion.

Favorites: Don't Reach For Me, Suffocate, Slaughterhouse pt2, Blinding Faith

Imminence - The Black

The best metalcore record of the year, straight up. It's pissed but it's very artistic and mellow at the same time making this whole album sound like a mix between European death metal and symphonic metal at times and American modern metalcore. The Black is amazing, I can only talk about it in superlatives, it's so good. The range from the sad and melancholic songs to the most heavy blast beats is insane and once again the swedish boys (especially Eddie) proved to be one of the most innovative bands of the scene right now.

Favorites: Come Hell or High Water, Heaven Shall Burn, Desolation, Death by A Thousand Cuts

Sum 41 - Heaven :x: Hell

This is gonna be probably the most unpopular opinion on this list but I love this record. I love both the Heaven and the Hell side equally, they both sound nostalgic but not too obviously ripping off old songs, Deryck still got it when it comes to the vocal performances, in some songs he still sounds like he did when they recorded All Killer, No Filler. I'm glad they are able to go out on their own terms, without backstabbing and cancellations, after almost 30 years of putting out bangers, they absolutely deserve the retirement.

Favorites: Waiting On A Twist Of Faith, Landmines, Dopamine, How the End Begins

Bring Me The Horizon: POST HUMAN - NeX GEn

Well, at the start of the year I didn't expect to have it but in May after a surprise drop, we got one of the most anticipated records of the past few years. After the end of the last year when the band announced Jordan's departure I was really bummed out and thought the album will never be ready. Multiple delays, preorder cancellations, and a fuckton of singles later, it was here. Oli clearly had a vision by involving all of the band again just like in the old days and the result was this j-metal inspired concoction that uncovers mental health issues unapologetically uncensored. Probably my favorite record of the year.

Favorites: Top 10 Statues That Cried Blood, n/A, LosT, Dig It

Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT

My go-to chill record of the year. It has immaculate vibes, chill production and the usual soft vocals by Billie. She (and her brother, Finneas) brought the chillest pop album of this year for me. I caught myself turning it up during home office and getting Birds Of A Feather stuck in my head for days. Especially the theremin part at the end that sounds like MGMT's Time To Pretend.

Favorites: Lunch, L'amour de ma vie, Birds Of A Feather, Chihiro

Bilmuri - American Motor Sports (420CC Edition)

Time to go crank the hog. Bilmuri (Johnny Frank's post-Attack Attack solo band) has put themselves out by mixing metalcore and country the most random yet still fitting ways, It's the catchiest and most fun record I've heard this year and honestly I cannot even bring up any band that do it the same way as Johnny and the boys do (maybe with the exception of Electric Callboy).

Favorites: The End, Better Hell (Thicc Boi), Boutta Cachew, Blindsided

Poppy - Negative Spaces

I've been loosely following Poppy since her unhinged youtube video days when I thought, maybe she was gonna end up being a basic e-girl and give up this super uncomfortable persona. Well, years later I got what was completely unexpected back then: an album that is completely herself, no persona, no hiding just her and her band making music she likes. Poppy is one of those artists that can do anything from bubblegum girlie pop (crystallized), to borderline black metal blastbeats (they're all around us) and Knocked Loose-like beatdown hardcore (the center's falling out). Amazingly creative work produced by the one and only Jordan Fish, whose work is obvious on the record.

Favorites: they're all around us, the cost of giving up, vital, push go

Linkin Park - From Zero

If you want a longer review of this record, check it out from one of my latest posts. To make it short: LINKIN PARK ARE BACK. Emily, the new singer is a really talented vocalist who gave new life to the band. The band made conscious decisions to feel like it's still Linkin Park we're talking about and not some Dead Sara-copy. Mike's production on the whole album screams older eras of LP, and proves that you can come back From Zero even after decades of carrier and following a tragedy.

Favorites: Two Faced, Heavy Is The Crown, Good Things Go, Over Each Other

Honorable mentions:

Ankor - Shoganai

Nightwish - Yesterwynde

AWS - Innen Szép Nyerni

Boundaries - Death is A Little More

Darko US- Starfire

thrown - EXCESSIVE GUILT

Kublai Khan - Exhibition of Prowess

Like Moths To Flames - The Cycles of Trying to Cope

Favorite EPs:

Counterparts - Heaven Let Them Die

Bad Omens - CONCRETE JUNGLE [THE OST] (technically not an EP but still)

The Plot In You - Vol 1. - Vol. 4

Nik Nocturnal - PANIK

[blot-squisher]

Hello, glad to hear life's been good.

Could I request a SFW alphabet for Suzie?

💜💜💜 (Thank you! Also I'm so happy to have an ask for Susie!)

(I have not gotten to read the Legion graphic novels yet so all of this is my own headcannon/STG based character lore)

SFW Alphabet Ask Meme for Surviving the Game Susie Lavoie

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?) No longer as reserved as she used to be, Susie will show her affection without reservation. Words, actions, and gifts. Just don't ask where she got you a gift from, because she probably stole it...

B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?) If Susie sees something in you she likes, she's going to drag you into the fold whether you want to be there or not. She'll lead you into as much mischief as she follows you into, but she'll stay by your side no matter how the situation goes.

C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?) Full body snuggles. Big spoon, little spoon, head resting in your/her lap. It's all good.

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?) Forever eighteen, Susie has no intention of 'settling down'. She's going to live her life to the fullest as long as she can. She'll pick up cooking and cleaning along the way... maybe.

E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?) She will cut you. Okay, so maybe not cut you, but she's going to make a hell of a burn page about you, and yes. The Legion are going to hear ALL about it. Just... keep your head on a swivel for a while...

F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?) Susie values loyalty to a lethal extent. She's not one to get married at such a young age, but she'll ensure her partner knows how valued they are despite that.

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?) Despite her intense personality, she can be incredibly kind to the people she cares about. Listening, offering advice if it's wanted, and just being there for her friends will always be a big part of who she is.

H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?) Susie loves being physical (even platonically) with the people she likes. Her hugs are usually pretty tight, so if you were hoping to escape... good luck. If she doesn't like you and you still try to touch her, she'll be quick to let you know it's unwelcome. You're going to get stabbed.

I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?) An hour? Maybe two. Does she mean she's in love with you? Or is it more of a friendly love? Time will tell!

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?) Considering how far the internet has come, don't be surprised to find a few dozen pictures of the object of her ire in a shoe box with scratched out eyes, devil horns drawn on them, and maybe a few nasty comments scribbled across them.

K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss their partner? Where do they like to be kissed?) Although she got her braces off only a few days before being taken by the Entity, Susie is still very self-conscious about her teeth. Kisses are usually a quick peck until she really starts to warm up to you. At that point, kissing on the lips is her favorite thing.

L = Little ones (How are they around children?) Can the child be taught to steal? And will they snitch if they get caught? Overall, Susie tolerates children but doesn't have strong feelings about them either way.

M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?) This girl can sleep and really likes to do so. Not having to get up for school anymore is kind of great! If she's got to get up early you better have something with a lot of caffeine in it or she's going to be cranky all day.

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?) Better put your mask on, cause it's time to pull some shady shit...

O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?) Despite what you might think at first, Susie is tighter than a clam when it comes to talking about her past and personal life. It's been over two-hundred years for her. She's mourned her losses and moved on. Now, it's best left in the past.

P = Patience (How easily angered are they?) It's not hard, but the way she expresses her anger is what should really worry you. Depending on how mad you've got her, she could react as simply as flipping you off. If it's really bad, you're going to get shanked. In between that, you may wake up to find all your socks or shoelaces missing. Where did you put your keys? Why is all the cereal in the bathtub?

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about their partner? Do they remember every little detail they mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?) Susie has a scrapbook with all the important things she's learned about you in it. If she can't remember something or is foggy on details, she'll give herself a quick refresher from time to time.

R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in their relationship?) Breaking the law together for the first time and seeing the excited gleam in your eyes. Whether you're tagging a building or jacking a car for a joyride, the thrill is sure to bring you both closer together.

S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect their partner? How would they like to be protected?) Susie will kill to keep you safe if that's what it takes. Although she may not always enjoy it as much as some, she'll appreciate you going to the same lengths.

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?) It will vary wildly. How does she decide how big to go? No one knows. Possibly not even her.

U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?) She can get quite intense about things, both bad and good. When Susie hyperfixates on something, good luck distracting her.

V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?) She's quiet about it, but she's quite self-conscious at times, often comparing herself to the people around her.

W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without their partner?) Yes. Very much so. Whether she realizes it or not, she needs her people.

X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.) Susie never really enjoyed the Trials the way Frank and Julie did. She needed more 'encouragement' from the Entity to kill, and was often bombarded with visions of her worst memories right before Trials to anger her so she'd take it out on the Survivors, thus feeding the Entity.

Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?) Being made to feel like she's unimportant or being purposely left out. Susie isn't nearly as shy as she used to be, but even then she hated feeling excluded.

Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habit of theirs?) Susie sleeps best when shes wrapped around someone else. Hopefully you keep your room cold, because she will sleep through you melting from the additional body heat.

[henderhop-is-endgame]

My thoughts on the best evidence for Henderhop [survey here]:

long-ish post under the cut

"What is the most compelling evidence that Henderhop is endgame?"

There are 7 pieces of evidence, and an 8th choice for typing in your own evidence in case I missed anything.

The first choice is the "Superpowers" parallel. In episode 1, right after the audience is introduced to the bullies Troy and James, Mike tells Dustin that his cleidocranial dysplasia is "kinda cool. It's like you have superpowers or something". In season 4, Mike calls El his "superhero". This is evidence, but I think it's mostly evidence for Mike and El's relationship being platonic. It's not necessarily proof that Henderhop is endgame; it's more anti-Mileven than pro-Henderhop, which is why this is Henderhop evidence but it's not the most compelling. So I would not pick this option- at least not as my top 3.

Second choice: "Only love makes you that crazy, sweetheart" and "She's our friend and she's crazy"- those two lines are from the same episode, "The Monster", the sixth episode of season 1. Throughout the show: El says, referring to herself, "Not stupid." Nancy says, "El's not stupid." to Mike. And Mike says to Will, "El's not stupid!" It's a pretty common theme that El isn't stupid. But Dustin is the one who says she's crazy. It might seem like a reach, but I feel like there's something there.

Third choice. Dustin bringing her chocolate pudding. It's compelling evidence- however: Dustin has an ulterior motive to bringing El the chocolate pudding. It's not just about El, it's also about Dustin's hypothesis that Lunch Lady Phyllis hoards the pudding. I think it's sweet that it was Dustin's idea.

Fourth choice. Flashback. Honestly not that compelling to me, because it was part of a montage of flashbacks.

Fifth choice. Romeo & Juliet parallels. First episode of season 3, Dustin refers to his relationship with Suzie as "star-crossed lovers". He literally name-drops Romeo and Juliet. We all know how that ends. I really don't think that they would be comparing these relationships if they were meant to be. In season 4, Argyle calls Mike "Romeo" and then of course there's the Montague brand oven, which I feel is intentional in the set design. It all just feels intentional. It's weird that they would choose these two relationships to compare to Romeo and Juliet; I don't think any other relationship in the show have been compared to R&J. So, I would say that this comparison is compelling evidence, and actually is top 3 for me.

Sixth choice. Dustin interrupting Mike & El twice. So the first- Mike and El are in the basement bathroom, and Dustin bursts the door open right as it looks like Mike and El are about to kiss. And then of course in season 3, we have the moment in the supermarket where Mike is trying to tell El he loves her in a very round-about way. "What I want to say is-" and then there's static on the walkie and Mike immediately stops to ask Dustin what he's trying to say, but Dustin's battery dies. ("This'll charge your battery right up, I'm telling you"- oh that's funny. Oh, that's- no. I'm delusional. I'm delusional.) Yeah, I'm gonna call this evidence, actually, because Dustin interrupting Mike and El's romantic moments? Twice? C'mon.

Seventh choice. Dustin's idolization of El's powers has decreased, while Mike continues to idolize her. This is especially notable in season 4 episode 8. Dustin specifically says, "We know El's strengths, and weaknesses." He doesn't seem impressed by El's powers, like he's fawning over her; she's just a friend to him. I feels like Mike still idolizes her. "You're my superhero". Mike's monologue feels contrived, it doesn't feel natural to me- the fact that he had to be coaxed by Will to say it. Dustin's love for El is more grounded in reality.

Well anyway, those are my top 3: Romeo & Juliet parallels; Dustin interrupting Mike & El's romantic conversations, and Dustin's idolization of El decreasing.

The most compelling photographic evidence- well, not any of the group hugs, I don't think. Dustin carrying El isn't good evidence because it was improvised; originally Mike was going to carry her. I think actually what they were going for in that case was Mike carrying El being parallelled to Brenner carrying El, which would be another familial parallel. So, as much as I love to say it's a juxtaposition... I don't know. I mean, it is a juxtaposition, but I don't know if it's really compelling proof that Henderhop is endgame.

Season 3 hanging out... he does smile at her, and- okay, y'know what? This is evidence.

Season 3 blocking... I'm gonna say yeah.

As pleased as JJ was that Charlie invited him home with her for Christmas, he wasn’t quite sure he could handle two and a half weeks straight of just her family. He stayed with John B at the Chateau most of the break - except he was exiled when Sarah came to stay. On those nights, he packed an overnight bag and showed up at Charlie’s house and was relegated to the guest room in the basement each time, when her dad pointed a finger downstairs and good-naturedly warned “upstairs is off-limits, kid.” 

Naturally, Charlie snuck downstairs around 1am each night he stayed over and cuddled into his side, complaining that she slept better when he’s there. (He couldn’t quite bring himself to admit it yet, but he felt the same way.) They woke up to her alarm at 6 each morning, limbs tangled around each other, and she grumbled every time and tried sneaking back upstairs without her parents noticing. 

One day she was caught by both her parents, up earlier than she had expected. “Charlotte?” Her mom asked, surprised to see her sneaking up the stairs. She froze, still in her pajamas, hair messy and lips a little swollen. “Good morning! Um, I was just, um, checking to be sure JJ wasn’t cold. Brought him an extra blanket.” Her dad just raised his eyebrows, skeptical as he sipped his coffee. Mrs. Walker let out a huff, shaking her head. “Do you think I’m dumb, Charlotte?” 

“No ma’am.” Charlie answered quickly, southern manners trained into her since birth. If she believed her ears, she swore she heard JJ’s low laugh from the bottom of the stairs, but she ignored it (and hoped to god that her mom didn’t hear it too). “Charlotte, I know we haven’t talked about this, but I hope you’re having safe sex -” 

“Mom!” Charlie exclaimed, going bright red. 

“You are not nearly put together enough to have a child, and as much as I love JJ, I don’t think he is either. You need to be taking your birth control regularly, and -” 

“Do I need to be here for this conversation, Suzie?” Her dad asked with a faint scowl, not making eye contact with Charlie. “Yes, you’re her parent too. If she’s choosing to be sexually active, she needs to be safe about it. Secondly! Is that really appropriate for you to be having sex in the family home?” 

JJ had been listening from the base of the stairs, amused, then finally came up to rescue her. For probably the first time in his life, he came up for breakfast fully dressed, lightly touching the small of Charlie’s back as he brushed past. “Morning, Charlie. Morning, Mr. and Mrs. Walker. Charlie, still want to go on that run?” Her mom eyed the two of them suspiciously, then redirected the conversation easily - though not without a “you’ll hear about this later, Charlotte.” Her dad was grateful for the turn in conversation and lifted his mug to JJ in acknowledgment. “JJ, kiddo, want coffee?” 

“I’m good, sir, thank you.” JJ turned to Charlie and asked her again, a little more pointedly. “Thanks for waking me up to go run, Charlie, but you should probably go change.” 

“Right, yeah, of course.” She nodded, grateful for his excuse, and hurried upstairs. Her mom regarded the two of them with narrowed eyes and raised eyebrows. JJ shoved his hands in his pockets, alone for the first time with her parents. “Do you two normally get up this early?” 

“No, we’re volunteering this morning.” Her mom explained, still regarding JJ with a suspicious look. “Run often, JJ?” Her dad chimed in, trying his best to bail him out of the awkward conversation. “Ah, yeah. Clears my head. I like going before the sunrise.” JJ nodded, shifting on his feet. Charlie came down moments later, keys in hand. “Ready, J? Figured we could drive out to the beach and start there?” 

“Charlotte, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you run for fun ever in your life.” Her mom stated, glancing skeptically at her high-top Converse that were certainly not meant for running. She wore an awkward smile and took JJ’s hand. “Yeah, well, JJ can be convincing.” 

“Let ‘em go, Suze, if they’re trying to beat the sun.” Her dad bailed them out, raising his mug toward Charlie with a wry smile. She shot a grateful look back and gave a hurried goodbye before dragging JJ out the door. JJ grabbed the car keys from her, shaking his head. “Converse, Walker, really? Of all your sneakers?” 

She blushed, laughing. “I panicked! Oh my god, if my mom gives me a safe sex lecture when we get back, I’m dragging you into it.” 

“Unfair! They’re not my parents.”  

“Yeah, well, you could probably use a lecture. I remember you skipping out on health class in high school, do you even know anything about female anatomy?”  

A wide smirk grew across his face and she rolled her eyes, slapping her hand over his mouth before he could respond. “I know I walked right into that one. Don’t even say it.”

They made do as they could, sneaking in quickies when her parents were out for errands, or her sneaking downstairs and going down on him when he was in the shower, pinching his thigh when he groaned involuntarily. 

She cut it off completely when they were almost -  almost caught  by her eleven-year-old brother, Jamie. JJ was shirtless in her room ‘getting ready’ and two seconds away from pulling Charlie’s shirt off. Jamie had barged into her room like always, and promptly screamed when he saw JJ on top of Charlie. They sprang apart and Jamie had a hand over his eyes as he backed out, and Charlie had to chase him down and explain and swear him to secrecy. He was only bribed with a promise of JJ taking him out to surf for a whole day.

_

Despite their short struggles, JJ was wholeheartedly embraced into the family traditions. 

He snapped off a piece of her mom’s mistletoe and carried it around in his  pocket, using it as an excuse to kiss Charlie around her parents. Luckily, her mom thought it was cute, but JJ was hesitant to use the mistletoe around her dad. After he tried, just once, her dad called him on it straightaway. “Watch your hands around my little girl, kid.” 

“I’m 21, Dad.” Charlie rolled her eyes and squeezed JJ’s hand under the dinner table. JJ offered a sheepish grin. “My bad, Mr. Walker.”  

Jamie was just young enough to still somewhat believe in Santa, so they made cookies the night before and set them out. JJ made up an elaborate  story about how they used to leave reindeer food - a mix of oatmeal and cinnamon - out the night before when he was a kid, just to be sure the reindeer knew where to land. Afterward, Charlie nudged him while they were alone, doing dishes in the kitchen. “That story, about the reindeer food?”  

“Yeah, what about it?”  

“Did your mom do that with you?” 

He laughed, dryly. “Not at all. Kie did that with her parents.” He then blushed slightly and shrugged. “I always thought it sounded nice.” She frowned just a little and tucked herself into his side. “We’ll make all the traditions you can think of, okay? Keep ‘em up for years.” 

“Don’t make promises you can’t keep. Might not like me in a year.” He warned. 

She frowned more and reached a soapy hand up to his arm. “Hey. Don’t talk like that, I love you. You know that.” 

He nodded and pressed a kiss to her forehead, then nudged her away. “I know. Love you too.” 

“You’re in it for the long haul with me, Maybank.” 

“Yeah? You sure you want that commitment?” 

“Positive.” She grinned and kissed him just as he picked up another ceramic dish from Christmas Eve dinner, and it slipped out of his hands and crashed to the floor, shattering everywhere. He froze, ready to be reprimanded, or yelled at  - or worse. Her mom came in right away, frowning. “What happened?” 

“Dropped the dish, wet hands. My bad.” Charlie apologized for him quickly, moving to grab the broom out the closet. JJ just blinked, not moving. “I, um, sorry. It was my fault.” He knelt down, ready to pick up the pieces with his bare hands. “No need to cover for her, JJ, she’s done this before.” Mrs. Walker rushed over and batted his hands away. “Careful, don’t want you to get hurt.” 

The exchange was dismissed faster than it happened and JJ couldn’t stop thinking about it for the rest of the night - he wasn’t sure why he was so easily forgiven. 

On Christmas morning, Charlie snuck down to wake JJ up like usual. He curled his arm around her automatically the second she cuddled into bed. “Morning, pretty girl.” 

“Merry Christmas, J. We have a couple hours before we have to get up to open presents, so...” She trailed off and trailed her hand down his chest, giving him a shy smile. He grabbed her hand before it could go further. “Don’t start, not fair.” 

“I’ll be quiet.” She promised. 

He laughed. “You’re never quiet. Ever.”  

She scowled. “Could be. If I wanted.” 

JJ grinned and kissed her shortly, mumbling. “When we get back, we can have sex as much as you want. At yours...” He nipped her neck. “At mine...” He trailed his fingers up under her shirt, cupping her breast. “Any way you want.” When he tweaked her nipple she let out a breathy moan and he laughed again, quickly cutting her off with a kiss. “See what I mean?” 

“That was just for you.” She argued, trying to roll on top of him. He grabbed her forearms and pinned her to the bed. “Charlotte.” 

“Now you’re just teasing.” She whined, pushing against his grip. “Not my fault you’re turned on by everything I do.” He smirked, then pulled her back against his chest. “C’mon. Back to sleep.” 

Later, after she snuck back upstairs to change and they both made their way up to open presents, Charlie was grateful for her mom turning a blind eye to JJ’s slightly swollen lips. She handed him his gift first and JJ waited until Jamie was occupied with his presents to unwrap his with care, not wanting any attention. She got him a pair of new shoes, leather, after he had complained about having to wear sneakers for a professional networking event at school. 

“Charlie, you didn’t.” He breathed out, running his finger over the shoe with a grin. “I can’t - these had to have cost you -” He started, flipping over the box  for a price tag, which Charlie had taken the liberty of scratching off. “Hey.” She grabbed his hand and squeezed it. “I wanted to.” 

“Well, open your other presents, JJ.” Her mom urged and he glanced up, confused and still a little in shock. “Huh?” Charlie grinned and handed him two more boxes, from both her parents. “You didn’t think there’d just be mine, did you?” 

“I never thought  - um, thank you.” He smiled at her parents and her dad nodded. “Open them, kiddo.” JJ opened the big one first and grinned at the South Carolina hoodie, pulling it on immediately. The next one was small and he opened it with care and his mouth fell open at the sight of the penknife. He immediately tried calculating how much it was in his head, looking it over. 

“You like it?” Her dad asked, trying to hold back a smile.

“I...I can’t, sir. This is way too nice.” JJ excused, trying to hand it over to her dad. Mr. Walker raised his eyebrows and flipped it over, showing JJ the engraving. “Know another JJ we can sell it to, kid?”

It took JJ a second to realize he was joking and he beamed, thanking her parents profusely. Charlie swore she saw his eyes water up, just slightly, and pressed a kiss to his cheekbone to kiss away a stray tear as he turned to her to show it off.

They got through all the presents until JJ handed her a little box, eager for her reaction. “Here. From me.” 

Her mom gasped as she pulled out a small ring box and JJ caught on a moment too slow of the implications of the gift. “It’s not - not that. Right?” Charlie quickly excused, raising her eyebrows at him. He nodded but deflated, just slightly, at how quick she was to insist it wasn’t an engagement ring. At his reassurance, she opened it and grinned when she pulled out a hammered gold band engraved with a wave (and his initials inscribed on the inside). 

“I made it myself. A buddy does a welding class and showed me how.” JJ held back the  full extent of his smile, nervous for her reaction. She beamed and threw his arms around him, grinning. “I love it, J, thank you.” 

He relaxed and pressed his lips to her temple. “Welcome, sweetheart.” 

“You wouldn’t so soon anyways, right?” Her mom questioned. 

“No, we’ve only been dating for...about, four and half months now.” Charlie dismissed. 

“Six.” JJ corrected. 

“Uh oh.” Her dad commented, leaving the room. Her mom laughed and followed suit, urging Jamie to come along. 

“Since the wedding in July. Right?” JJ questioned once they all left, cocking his head. “I didn’t call you my boyfriend ‘til we went back to school in August.” She replied, amused. His jaw dropped and he lowered his voice. “But we slept together!” 

“Oh, so you’ve dated every girl you’ve slept with?” She countered quickly. 

“Well - fair.” He grinned, smug. “If you really want to go into semantics, it’s been since June. You know, fake boyfriend and all.” 

She shoved him away with a faint hint of a blush on her cheeks, shaking her head. “July’s fine.”  

He laughed and pulled her back to kiss her sweetly. “July it is. Merry Christmas, Charlie.” 

“Merry Christmas, J.”

Path of Destruction [Part 2] | JEON JUNGKOOK

PAIRING: Jungkook x Reader

GENRE: Drama, Angst (maybe???), Thriller

WARNINGS: Stalking, obsession, too much swearing, dirty talks, possessive Jungkook, touching (...might be too uncomfortable :c)

WORD COUNT: 1900

Darkness. Silence. And awkwardness filled the entire room. You had no idea where you were right now. All you knew was that you were already caught by your stalker, whose name you didn’t know yet. 

You looked around waiting for the presence of the stalker to appear in front of you. It felt like horrible long hours. Where the hell was this person, anyway? 

As you were in a deep thought of your sister, the footsteps were heard to approach you. You were so terrified. What if this person’s next plan was to kill you and had your corpse lying next to him? His obsession was too visible. He could do anything just to have you by his side forever.

You slowly backed away when he moved a little closer, but to your surprise, all he ever brought to you was a glass of water. Huh? your thought questioned. You carefully took the glass from his hand and he chuckled seeing you shaking in fear. 

“Don’t be scared, twinkle toes,” he leaned forward and you quickly looked away. “I won’t bite unless... you want me to?” 

His smirk disgusted you. You were about to slap him but he was damn quick to catch your hand. He guffawed while looking at you, admiring your behavior so much. 

“Damn. With you being so feisty like this, who knows what you can do in bed?” He leaned forward to you again, sniffing your scent and you couldn’t help but to be in tears right now. You felt defeated since there was no one around to help you. Not even your sister who was the only person you can rely on. Michelle couldn’t hear your sobs. She couldn’t hear you cry right now. You were trapped in a very hidden place. With this creepy stalker.

As you were crying, he took the opportunity to kiss your earlobe, then slowly down to your jawline. You gasped when his sneaky little hand began to caress your thigh. 

“Stop it!” you exclaimed. This was shocking even for you, since you thought he would have continued what he was doing. But instead, he quickly backed off. He suddenly ruffled his hair in frustration. He mumbled things and just like that, he walked away to avoid you.

What the fuck was that all about? You went to check whether he was gone for real and when you realized he wasn’t there anymore, you drank the water quick in one gulp.

••••••

{11.53 p.m. at Suzie’s house}

“Where’s your friend, Suz? I thought you said she’d be here. It’s almost 12.” a friend of Suzie’s asked. Suzie looked at the clock and now she was a little worried. You were supposed to be there an hour ago.

“Maybe she fell asleep. You know how her school is,” Suzie took a sip of her coffee. “so damn dreadful.” Her friends laughed hearing Suzie’s dramatic tone. 

But Suzie, being the closest friend you’ve ever had, she sensed there was indeed something wrong. She felt like you were in trouble because she was now feeling uneasy. You’ve always been the type to be careful wherever you’d go, and she knew for the fact that you were the type of a person who’d sleep at 1 or 2 a.m. Never this ‘early’ at nearly 12 a.m. 

••••••

You were sure as hell confused when this stalker went to his room without a word. This night just kept getting weirder and weirder.

Hearing how quiet his room was, you decided to roam around this place. Where was this place even located? Where on Earth did he bring you?

You had your eyes travelled everywhere around this living room; the worn-out sofas, the dusty table, but one that caught your attention; a framed picture of you.

You quickly picked it up and looked closely at the picture. There was a short note at the bottom right of it. “ONLY Jeon Jungkook’s girl.”

Jeon Jungkook? That’s his name? You were too focused on the picture and the note that you didn’t realize he was already standing next to you and looking at you. When you noticed him, you gasped and dropped the picture, quickly backing away from him. 

“Relax, twinkle toes. It’s just me.” He chuckled and picked the picture up, placing it back neatly on the shelf. 

The fear began to build itself inside you when he turned to face you, giving you a soft smile. 

“You’re Jeon Jungkook?” He acted as if a love cupid just struck him, placing his hand dramatically on his chest. 

“Say my name again, Y/N..” he whispered while you were giving him a confused look. 

“Why should I sa-” your words were cut off when he began to walk slowly towards you and your back was now against the wall, and he now got you locked in between his arms when he rested his palms on it.

“You make it sound so magical..” he began to twirl your hair. “I’ve never liked my name until you said it.” 

You shook your head. Never liking his name. Was that even for real? Or was that just a trick to get into your pants? 

“Say my name again, Y/N.” His voice was now dark and with a warning tone. You were starting to feel scared with the sudden change of his voice, joined by his angry, darkened eyes as well.

“J-Jeon Jungkook.” you gulped nervously after you said his name again. His eyes were now moving down to look at your lips. As he was about to make his next move, that was to kiss you, you grabbed the chance to push him away harshly and you quickly ran to the opposite side. You looked around to find a weapon near you, and in this case, the table lamp was a good one to defend yourself from this guy.

“What the fuck do you want from me?!” your voice was cracked. You were crying again while lifting the table lamp to get ready to hit him just in case he wanted to make another inappropriate move. “WHY ME?! WHY THE FUCK CAN’T IT BE SOMEONE ELSE?!!” 

He was licking his lips when he turned around to you, looking at you with full of lust. Full of hunger, like he was already ready to devour you.

“Fuck having ‘someone else’. I only want you.” He was approaching you and you quickly swung the table lamp in front of his face to not let him touch you. 

“Stop! Don’t fucking come near me!” you cried out. Despite many attempts of defending yourself, Jungkook was so fast at dodging and avoiding to get hit from the lamp. His patience was running low now. He aggressively grabbed it from your hands and threw it somewhere else. 

“Noooo! No, fuck!” You ran around the place and he was chasing after you. You were too focused on looking back at him while running that the next thing happened was your foot tripped on something. 

You were in a rush to crawl forward but Jungkook beat you into it first, pulling your leg, hovering over you and locked both of your hands, pinning them above your head. At this point, he didn’t give a damn seeing you in tears. You were already making him mad.

“Don’t fucking fight me, Y/N, or else I’ll be inside you right here. Right now.” The next thing he did was removing his pants as well as your uniform skirt. 

“Noooo! No, please! Don’t do this to me!” He was taking his shirt off now.. and you widened your eyes when he began to pull your shirt up. 

“Jungkook, please don’t do this to me..” you managed to say between sobs. Just like that, he stopped what he was doing. 

Why did it feel like whenever you mentioned his name, it was just like an on and off switch for him? It felt like he was obeying you when you said it. Was your voice saying his name really his big weakness?

Unexpectedly, he pulled your shirt down and put your skirt back on. He also put his pants back on, but he still kept his position the same. He was still above you and now, he began to hug you so tight while locking both of your hands. 

“I don’t want anyone else, Y/N,” he whispered as he hid his face on the crook of your neck. “I don’t know what fucking spell you’ve casted on me the moment I saw you. It’s been years now and I can never get over you..”

You looked up at the ceiling while paying close attention to what he was saying. 

“You remember your douchebag ex-boyfriend, Trevor?” You hated that name. It stung you so much when Jungkook mentioned him to you. Trevor was the name of the asshole that cheated on you multiple times. The guy who made you believe love was never real. “I really wanted to kill him when I saw him making you cry. You cried nearly for a week. You didn’t eat when Michelle cooked you a lot of meals. You’ve got yourself trapped in your room and you were lying in bed for the whole day and night.”

What? you thought. Has he been really watching me for all of those long years?

“I could have made you happy after that fucker left,” you weren’t hearing it wrong, Jungkook was now crying as you heard his voice crack. “but my hopes were temporarily gone when I heard you told Suzie you weren’t looking for love anymore.”

You bit your lower lip as you were trying too hard not to let your tears out. You remembered that story. Suzie and Michelle were the only ones who were there for you, but you didn’t tell Michelle much about what happened between you and Trevor. You didn’t want to worry Michelle much with your sob story, so this matter was only known deeply by Suzie. ... and Jungkook as well since he was listening to every word you said to her. ‘I don’t believe in love anymore. I’ve lost hope in that shit.’ These were the flashback words that hurt Jungkook so much. He wanted to be there for you, but knowing you didn’t want to be in love with anyone anymore, he thought watching you from afar was a good idea. But never thought that watching you could lead to a dangerous obsession with you.

As previous years passed, Jungkook wanted nothing but to touch you here and there, to kiss you and to give you the love you truly deserved. He wanted to be the person who made you happy. But you didn’t trust men anymore. Not even that gentleman who had all of the girls’ in your school hearts melted, Adrian.

“I’ve never felt so much towards anyone before. You drive me the craziest, Y/N.. I tried to stop b-but,” he was sobbing. “there’s always something that pulls me back to you. It’s like something always tells me to never give up on you.”

You were having a lot of mixed feelings right now. It was a lot to take in. He softly placed a kiss on your neck and you didn’t care to defend yourself anymore. You were too weak but thankfully, Jeon didn’t take another step further.

“Just...” his next words shocked you. “let me love you, Y/N.”

(pt.2)

As Steve drove home he couldn’t stop thinking about what Dustin had said, he walked in his house and into his room where he plopped down on his bed.

He decided to call his friend Robin, you and Steve could always count on Robin to give you guys advice no matter what it was she knew what to say and what to do.

Steve picked up the phone and dialed her number,”Hey dingus whatcha up to?” she said, he chuckled. “I need your advice on something” he said.

“Advice about what?” Robin asked, “It’s about y/n, it’s so stupid but I want to ask her out but I just..” he said.

“You just what?”

“I mean we’ve been friends for such a long time and what if she doesn’t see me like that...”

“Steve, now look I haven’t know y/n as long as you have but I know that she likes you. I mean the way she looks at you and the way she talks about you.. I would be lying if I said it wasn’t cute because it is...Are you really that much of a dingus to see how much she’s in love with you?” she says.

Steve sits there for a minute as he thinks about you and how he’s tired of hiding these feelings from you and how he’s tired of watching guys hit on you and how he felt when you kissed him on the cheek.

“Hey Steve did you OD over there?” Robin asks as she interrupts Steve’s thoughts

Steve chuckles, “Your right Robin I am an oblivious dingus..but i’m going to do it I just want her no actually I need her...thanks I appreciate it”

“No problem Stevie and by the way im not going to be at work tomorrow soo you and y/n will have to share my shift” she says.

“Ughhh okay!! Thanks again Robin goodnight..” he says as he hangs up the phone.

Steve sighs and started to dial your number, as he held the phone to his ear he was hoping that you would answer.

“Hello?” you say

When Steve heard your voice all he could do was smile,”Hey y/n..” he said.

You giggle “Harrington!!!”

“So listen um.. Robin just called me and said she wasn’t coming to work tomorrow so we will have to spilt her shift” he said softly.

“Oh..Is she okay?” you ask, “Yeah she’s fine she just has some stuff to take care of..”

“Oh okay, hey guess what!!! I found our yearbook from junior year!!” you said,”Oh noooo don’t remind me of that year!!” he said as he chuckled. “Oh my god why did I look that this? I was so ugly!” you say as you look at yourself.

“Nooo you were beautiful!! You still are..” he said, you smiled as you blushed slightly.

It was silent for about a minute, you hear Steve clear his throat on the other side of the phone.

“Anyways..junior year probably my worst year..”Steve said, “Why’s that?” you ask softly.

“Well is was the year that you dated Tommy’s friend Jack..You spent so much time with him and I just felt like we were drifting apart...” Steve said

“Is it just me or did I just hear Steve “the hair”Harrington admit that he was jealous of Jack my boyfriend from junior year?!” you say.

“Yeah you did..I hated that guy he treated you so bad y/n... you deserve so much better than that douche bag seriously..” he said.

You chuckled softly,”Y-yeah i know that’s why I ended it..and because I realized that I had feelings for someone else. Someone who actually treats me good and makes me laugh when im upset and tells me im beautiful when im feeling ugly..J-just an overall good guy” you say.

Steve smiled, it was silent again to where all you could hear is each others breathing.

“Steve-“ You say as you get cut off by your mom entering your room and telling you goodnight.

“Goodnight” you say not excepting Steve to hear but as you open your mouth to talk Steve says,”Yeah it’s getting late we should probably go to sleep”

“Oh..y-yeah you’re probably right we should..”

“goodnight y/n i’ll see you tomorrow”

“night Steve...” you say softly as you hang up the phone.

You sigh as you lay down on your pillow, “Gosh your so stupid...he doesn’t like you why would someone like him be into you??” you say to yourself.

You then look at Steve’s picture in the yearbook that you had beside you, you chuckle as you close it.

you lay back down on your bed and turned off your lamp as you drift asleep.

As your alarm clock rang you woke up to a wave of tiredness, all throughout the night you had tossed and turned considering all you were thinking about was what you had said to Steve.

You get up out of bed and took a shower, as the warm water hit your skin it definitely calmed down your nerves.

As you got out you quickly wrap a towel around you and went to put on your ‘scoops ahoy’ uniform, you absolutely hated it but Steve thought you looked adorable in it.

You then quickly did your hair and makeup and made your way downstairs where you were greeted by your mom, “Oh mom im going to be late tonight again so don’t wait up for me okay?” you say.

“Okay honey have a good day i love you!!” she yells as she cleans the kitchen,”Love you too!!” you say back.

You then walk to your car, as you start to drive to the mall the butterflies in your stomach started to flutter, “I really hope Steve doesn’t bring our conversation from last night” you say to yourself, with Robin gone also there is going to be no way to avoid Steve if he wants to talk about last night.

As you arrive at the mall you walk into scoops, you get everything situated for the customers. You expect Steve to walk in any minute now but he was late, like really late..like 2 hours late, you hoped that what you said to him last night wasn’t to much for him.

Your thoughts started to weigh in, “Did i really just ruin my friendship with my best friend?” you asked yourself.

Since business was actually pretty slow so you decided to tidy things up around the shop it also was an opportunity to take your mind off of the situation.

You started with the tables you wiped them down with a warm wet rag, then your scooper, since Steve nor Robin was not here there was no reason for you to clean them.

You then looked behind you the cups were so unorganized so you started to tidy those up, as you were fixing them you hear the bell ring.

You sigh and turn around to see Steve with a bouquet of flowers and a note, “Steve!! W-whats this?” you ask.

Steve chuckled and handed you the flowers and note, “Just read this..” he said softly.

As you carefully take the note off of the bouquet you start to read it.. ‘y/n ever since i met you i automatically fell in love with you, you made me into the man i am today and if it weren’t for you i would be totally lost. i just can’t believe that it took me this long to say admit this to you..i love you y/n and i promise i will never leave you’

steve♡

You look up at Steve and smile, “Hiding my feelings from you was probably the hardest thing I have had to in my entire life, i love you y/n i always have and i always will” he says.

You come from behind the counter and walk up to Steve, you stand on your tippy toes and put your arms around his neck.

He bends down and you kiss him softly on his lips,”I love you too Harrington ..” you whisper. You feel Steve smile against your lips as he kisses you again, you pull away as he grabs your waist.

“So what do you say tomorrow we go see a movie and then dinner?” he asks looking down into your eyes, “It’s a date stevie!!” you say as you place another kiss on his lips.

You then hear the kids including Robin clap and cheer,”Finally!!!” Mike says, “He found his Suzie!!!” Dustin says as he smiles at Steve.

You and Steve look at them and laugh, “Well anyone want ice cream?!” you say. This kids say “me” in unison you laugh,Steve then kisses you on the cheek as you serve the kids their ice cream.

A/n: Heyy homies!! sorry this took forever but i was wondering if i should make a part 3 where max and el want help y/n get ready for her date with steve like with her outfit and stuff idk but let me know!!! i think it would be cute but anyways hoped you enjoyed ilyyy💗💗💗

Psycho Analysis: The Pillar Men

(WARNING! This analysis contains SPOILERS!)

“Awaken my masters!”

Sometimes it’s really hard to divide a villain team into singular entries to cover on Psycho Analysis; the characters are just too intrinsically linked to take apart and do individually. So, the easy answer to this problem is to just do the whole group together! And considering these guys come right out and make their big debut by striking a pose together, how can I not group them together?

The Pillar Men are the major antagonists of the second (and objectively one of the best) parts of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. The trio consists of sinister and mysterious leader Kars, crafty and determined second-in-command Esidisi, and loyal and noble warrior Wamuu, and they pose one of the greatest threats in all of the JoJo canon on account of being enormous, ridiculously buff ancient Aztec vampires with insanely bizarre powers.

Oh, and Kars is the one who made the mask that turned Dio, thereby making Kars a greater scope villain for the entire franchise, so there’s that too.

Of course, while they’re all a serious threat, they aren’t really totally equal in terms of quality. Just watching the show it’s easy to tell who the more interesting Pillar Men are, though I will say all of them are good villains.

Actor: Kars is portrayed by John DeMita, who has had a long history voice acting smaller roles; Esidisi is portrayed by Chris Jai Alex, whose biggest role to date aside from this is Panthro in ThunderCats Roar; Wamuu is voiced by Paul St. Peter, who is probably the most famous of the three as he is the voice behind Xemnas of Kingdom Hearts fame, Kurama in Naruto media since 2014, and perhaps most surprisingly (and amazingly) of all, Wormmon in Digimon Adventure 02. All three do excellent jobs, with their voices really helping sell the character of the Pillar Man they’re voicing, and generally speaking they seem to be considered some of the best-voiced characters in the dub.

Motivation/Goals: The Pillar Men share one simple goal: they desire to obtain the stone mask and the Red Stone of Aja and combine them so that they may become the ultimate lifeforms, thus becoming invincible. This seems like a really good plan… but, frankly, it also seems like overkill considering these guys are basically godly powerful right off the bat, their only major weakness being sunlight. I suppose wanting to find and eradicate your only weakness is a smart goal, and the fact you become a literal god on top of that is icing on the cake.

Personality: Wamuu and Esidisi both really shine in the personality department, while Kars, unfortunately, hangs behind the two. Wamuu especially is a very interesting character, being the most honorable and noble of the Pillar Men; from his allowing Caesar’s blood bubble headband to continue to exist to his constant playing fair in his fights, Wamuu easily cements himself as one of the most affable antagonists in the franchise, to the point where he and Joseph basically become friends as he dies. His code of honor, fierce loyalty, and sheer badassery makes him a lot of fun to watch.

Esidisi is not quite as nice or honorable as Wamuu; considering he posessed the body of an innocent girl just so he could try one final suicide attack after his initial defeat shows he’s not afraid to be a bit underhanded, as does his crying psych out trick. And yet, that being said, Esidisi is still a pretty honorable villain in his own right, and much like Wamuu he does view Joseph as a very worthy adversary. The lengths he goes to aid his fellow Pillar Men indicates he does have a fondness for them, one that is seemingly reciprocated, and this sort of villainous friendship is always nice to see. While definitely more pragmatic and tricky than Whamuu, there’s no denying Esidisi was a worthy foe.

Kars… is odd. As the leader and the final foe to be faced in the story, he spends much of the series mysterious, his nature and motives shrouded in mystery. However, unlike DIO or Yoshikage Kira, we never really do get much of a sense of who Kars is in comparison to his fellow Pillar Men until the very end of this part. What we do get ultimately ends up being contradicted as well; his love of the natural world, for instance, shown best when he kills drunk drivers to save a dog and overcomplicates a landing to avoid crushing flowers, is tossed out the window when he becomes the Ultimate Life Form and allows his squirrel hand to kill another squirrel. He also puts up an act of being honorable and noble like his subordinates, but it’s all seemingly for show, as he goes back on his word when it suits him and he plays dirty and sadistically. Even his love for his fellow Pillar Men is a bit iffy; while it’s pretty obvious that he did care for Wamuu and Esidisi, and he told Joseph he would avenge them after their deaths, he does at one point pretty callously dismiss Santana, a Pillar Man he himself had raised. Kars’ personality just seems to flip flop back and forth when it suits him, and putting that aside he’s just a bit too mysterious and vague for his own good.

However, if nothing else, Kars shares one trait with his fellow Pillar Men: he is undeniably over-the-top and hammy to an absurd degree when the scene calls for it, and that honestly does redeem him at least a bit. And what little we do get about his origins and the source of his motivations is pretty interesting and makes a lot of sense. It just comes a bit too late for his own good.

Final Fate: All three Pillar Men meet their end in this part. Esidisi diees first; after being reduced to little more than a brain and some blood vessels, he is vaporized by sunlight after trying to steal Suzie Q.’s body. Wamuu is defeated in one-on-one combat between himself and Joseph, with his dying moments cementing how honorable he is and showcasing the culmination of his relationship with Joseph. Kars has the most sever and disturbing fate of all three; after becoming the Ultimate Lifeform and being blasted into space by sheer accident, his adaptive abilities kick in and put him into a state of hibernation to save him from the cold, airless vacuum of space. Unable to move and trapped entirely as he drifts further and further away, Kars eventually ceases thinking to cope with this horrible situation.

Best Scene: As a group, there is no better scene with all three than their introduction, in which upon waking up for the first time in thousands of years, all three of them strike a dramatic pose together. It is one of the most JoJo moments you will ever witness.

Individually, Wamuu has his final battle and ultimate death against Joseph, which cements his status as the very best Pillar Man with his noble and badass qualities on full display. 

Esidisi has the scene where he breaks out crying to psych Joseph out, a weird and iconic trait of the character that was even adapted as a taunt in All-Star Battle. 

And Kars has the moment where he decides to strum the opening notes of “Roandabout” on Lisa Lisa’s legs solely to piss off Joseph.

Best Quote: Wamuu’s best quote is the one used to introduce this Psycho Analysis, and the one used to introduce the Pillar Men as a whole: “Awaken, my masters!”

Esidisi gets this when he turns Joseph’s signature trick on him: “Next you'll say, ‘I'm going to wipe that smirk off your face!’ Watch.” This is only improved when Joseph responds with exactly that and then calls him out on stealing his tricks.

Kars gets this after the Pillar Men give their wedding rings to Joseph: “Let us keep moving. Apparently the human race has regressed rather than evolved.”

Final Thoughts & Score: The Pillar Men are really fun antagonists. They bring a level of seriousness and drama to the story that plays well off of Joseph’s goofy and eccentric personality, while not being entirely above goofiness themselves; I mean, Esidisi’s sobbing trick and Kars turning his hand into a squirrel are both things that happened, after all. And on top of all of that, they take the overly buff and macho aesthetic of early JoJo to its ludicrous, logical extreme with their awesomely god-like builds. They’re not called “The Aztec Gods of Fitness” by fans for nothing.

As I mentioned though, some of the Pillar Men are just more interesting than others. Unsurprisingly, Wamuu is a 10/10; with his excellent voice acting, his defined and noble personality, and his strange yet compelling relationship with Joseph make him one of the most notable antagonists in the entire franchise, and he’s not even the big bad!

Esidisi scores an 8/10. He’s not quite as impressive as Wamuu is, but he’s still pretty awesome in his own right. His incredible determination and love for his comrades to the point where he just refused to die for a bit solely to make their lives a little easier is honestly a bit inspiring and a great show of his true character. The fact he fights with his own blood veins is also ridiculously cool and disgusting all at once. Kars… I am giving a 6/10. He has a reputation of being one of the more base-breaking villains of the franchise, though definitely not to the extent of Diavolo, and it is a bit easy to see why. Kars is a bit too mysterious for his own good, and what little we do see of him seems to get dropped whenever it suits his mood. All that aside, there really is no denying that what we do learn about him is relatively interesting, and when he finally cuts loose towards the end and starts hamming it up, he honestly does live up to the precedent set by his cohorts. Still, I can’t pretend like he’s not overshadowed a lot by Esidisi and Wamuu; they’re just a lot more fun as antagonists. At the very least Kars is a lot of fun to play as in All-Star Battle, though his GHA really is a pain to pull off.

No matter the individual quality level though, as the collective big bads of this part of the Joestar Saga the Pillar Men are all some of the most interesting and unique foes in the series. I think what’s most impressive is that the series somehow managed to top these guys with nearly every villain after this. You heard right, this series gave giant ancient Aztec vampires with incredibly strange body powers and with one of them literally becoming the ultimate lifeform in the second part of eight and counting, and yet somehow they still managed to keep escalating the villains from here to ludicrous extremes, with a bisexual psychopathic egomaniac vampire who can stop time, a hand-fetishizing serial killer who can turn things into bombs and rewind time, a paranoid mafia don with multiple personalities  and the ability to erase short chunks of time, a gay priest who has a thing for prime numbers and wants to reset the universe for his vampire boyfriend, and a dimension-hopping United States president who wants to collect the pieces of Jesus Christ’s corpse to attain ultimate power all following as big bads.

It really is that sort of series. And when the series is like that, it’s better to start embracing how crazy and over-the-top you are early on, and what better way to do that than with Aztec super vampires? The Pillar Men are a great way to ease people in to the insanity that would follow, being a perfect mix of down-to-earth understandable weirdness and out-there bonkers wackiness. Much like Forever after, they marked a point where the series really started shaping up into the one we all know and love by truly creating and embracing its identity. For that, they definitely deserve a lot of respect.

UPDATE: The only real change here is that Wammu gets bumped down to a 9/10. This is mainly because, as amazing as Wammu is, he’s still not quite on the level as villains like DIO or Kira in terms of iconicness. I wish he was, but sadly we do not live in that world.

Philadelphia Daily News, 29 May 1981 

By Larry Fields

Gracing the wedding

The first team was there last night when they married 54-year-old former City Councilman Jack Kelly off at the swank Wharton Sinkler Estate in Wynd-moor. There was his sister. Princess Grace of Monaco; her husband. Prince Rainier and two of their Serene Highnesses' three children Princess Caroline and Prince Albert, who graduates Sunday from Amherst College in Massachusetts. Princess Stephanie, who just turned 16, remained at home. 'Someone had to stay behind and protect the throne in case the new French Socialist government decides to go crazy and take over the smaller-than-Fairmount Park principality that Rainier and Grace rule, courtesy of the benevolent former French government. 

There were four of the groom's six children from his former marriage. There was Eagles' owner Leonard Tose and his wife, Caroline; former Secretary of the Treasury William Simon; Mayor William Green and his wife, Pat; City Representative Dick Doran; Rolls-Royce dealer Marty Keenan and his gorgeous wife, Joanne; champion skier Suzy "Chapstick" Chaffee a doll Kell used to date; John Lehman, U.S. secretary of the Navy and Kell's cousin; and of course, Stanley Green and his wife, Agnes - because what party would be complete without them? 

OH, YES, THERE WAS ALSO THE BRIDE - Sandra Lee Worley, 34 years old and a vision in white for her first time at the altar. The wedding was performed officially by Common Pleas Court Judge James J. McDermott, a candidate for justice of the Supreme Court. McDermott, who officiated in his usual magnificent manner, was perfect for the part he's sent many a man to his doom. 

Although it must be acknowledged that life with Sandi Worley can only be considered a delight and the groom was convicted of nothing more than good taste.

McDermott, a widower - and this columnist's candidate for any office he seeks, including emperor of the United States - did not seem too lonely for lovely female companionship himself. His date at the affair was a wonderful-looking woman named Deirdre Mecke, a divorcee whose former brother-in-law was Theodore H. Mecke Jr., a Philadelphia native who served as a vice president of the Ford Motor Co. before his death. 

Prince Albert, heir to the Monaco throne, was handsome and charming and one of the few men at the wedding not wearing a tuxedo. 

"I hope you'll be getting married soon," I said to Albert, who recently was linked romantically to TV actress Kathy Lee Crosby. 

"Why do you say that?" he asked me. 

"I love your country," I explained. "But it's too expensive for me. The only way I’ll be able to visit it again is if you get married and my paper pays for me to go to Monaco and report on the event" 

"Well" he said. “I would not plan on visiting Monaco then for at least three years - minimum, I’m not planning to marry soon." 

PRINCE ALBERT SAID that after his Sunday graduation from Amherst he intended to spend a few days in New York, then some time in Paris, and then in Monaco. "Marriage for me is quite a long way off," he said. 

His older sister, Princess Caroline, wearing a short black dress, cut low enough to almost see Heaven, did not appear to be recuperating too well from her recent divorce from Parisian playboy Philippe Junot She was there at the wedding, but the expression on her pretty face was sad and sullen. She resembled, slightly, a spoiled doll from Bustleton who was trying to get over a broken heart. 

Her dad. Prince Rainier, just seemed bored. He was there at the wedding, it seemed, because his wife dragged him there. It appeared that he was in the United States to attend the graduation ceremonies for his son and there just was no way to avoid mingling with his in-laws. 

Basking in the spotlight was nothing new to the groom, of course, and he as usual was cordial and friendly to the pushy press and photographers. The bride was another story. She seemed genuinely upset by an the commotion. 

BUT SHE LOOKED lovely dressed in virginal white, wearing a veil, and seemingly proud to be the second Mrs. John B. Kelly. Jr. 

The bride, who had announced that her parents would be at the wedding, caused a minor stir when they did not appear and she was “given away" by the groom's brother-in-law, Donald LeVine, a horse trainer. 

Pleasant Colony - winner of this year's Kentucky Derby and Preakness - should look so good. 

Princess Grace, no stranger to public and press attention, seemed to be the most composed at the affair. After Judge McDermott pronounced Jack and Sandra "husband and wife," she directed the line of traffic waiting to wish them well. 

"You're in the wrong line," she snapped at me. 

"It's the story of my life, your Serene Highness," I admitted. "Please don’t have my head cut off." 

HER SERENE HIGHNESS did not seem amused. 

Because I do not discuss my wife Andrea, I will state that the prettiest lady present, in my opinion, was Caroline Tose, a vision in gold and diamonds and emeralds. 

Mrs. Tose was not too kind to me. 

"You," she said, "are a louse. Where is Andrea?" I have written in the past that Leonard had given Caroline a $1 ring from Woolworth at their wedding a few months ago. Now she waved a wedding ring in front of me made up of the Eagles colors green and white. Three separate rings, one of emeralds surrounded by two strands of diamonds. "I want to show Andrea this because I know how much she likes emeralds and diamonds," Caroline said

"I want to show her this and ask her what kind of dum-dum she married that didn't buy her a ring like this," Caroline said. 

"SHE MARRIED A DUM DUM who cant afford doo-dads like you've got on your finger," I told Caroline. "But" I made up for it - sort of. I bought her Saudi Arabia."

Jack Kelly and Sandra Worley got married last night. It was a lovely wedding, and I must confess that I didn't notice the bride's ring because scotch got in my eyes. I only hope that they are as happy as Andrea and I - and Leonard and Caroline Tose. 

What do they say about misery loving company?

Click! Paparazzi Put Philadelphia on the Map

By FRANK DOUGHERTY 

You cannot have a social event without some social outcasts. And the social outcasts roles last night at the wedding of Philadelphia man-about-town Jack Kelly were filled by the paparazzi. 

In New York or Los Angeles, it would have been just another media event. But Philadelphia last night got into the Big Leagues with a visit from Europe's legendary and colorful media photographers.

THE PHILADELPHIA PRESS photographers covering the wedding last night were augmented with teams of lensmen from France, Germany and the United Kingdom, along with a couple of European free-lancers who operate out of New York. 

A photographic session was arranged after last night's nuptials by bridegroom Kelly and his top security chief, a guy named Mike Carroll, who said he used to be a Philadelphia cop. 

Carroll's real job began when the photographers were admitted to the grounds of the Wharton Sinkler Estate in Wyndmoor, about 15 minutes after Kelly and his bride, Sandra Worley, tied the knot. 

The Kelly family posed in the foyer of the gorgeous English Tudor mansion while photographers stood in the rain atop a cobblestone driveway and made their photographs as guests watched the show from the 100-year-old hand-leaded windows on the second floor. 

AS SOON AS KELLY and his wife appeared, strobe lights began going off like shore batteries and the pushing and shoving quickly followed. 

Carroll kept control until Princess Grace arrived in the foyer to pose with brother Jack. The photographers, festooned in Nikons and looking like a pack of lemmings about to plunge over a Norwegian cliff, immediately surged ahead. 

"The rain is good for your complexion," Her Serene Highness told the photographers. "It will make your complexions beautiful." 

At this point, Prince Rainier appeared in the foyer. And the photographers, with the Frenchmen in the lead, all pressed forward. 

The French and American photographers began calling each other names as two United Kingdom free lancers had taken positions standing atop potted chrysanthemums. 

The press crowd broke up as the Kelly family ducked out of the foyer back into the reception area. The photographers packed their gear and left - leaving behind small mounds of empty film boxes and canisters, a few broken umbrellas and six destroyed potted chrysanthemums.

DEVYN XAVIER-LEHNSHERR, our COURTNEY EATON fc is looking for a BIRTH MOTHER connection who looks like PLAYER’S CHOICE who is 45+YEARS OLD. you CAN contact prior to applying at queenofillusionsx. (Devyn’s birth mom is a closeted mutant who was scared of having a child in case they grew to be one. When Dev was born with lilac eyes, there was no mistaking what she was, so her parents gave her up. Now she is at Paragon to make amends, but it is the one topic she gets angry at so she won’t be happy.)

DINAH PRYDE, our KIERSEY CLEMONS fc is, looking for a OLDER BROTHER (FULL OR HALF, CAN ALSO BE ADOPTED !! ) connection who looks like UTP (MUST BE AT LEAST HALF BLACK IF A SIBLING VIA KITTY OR FULL SIBLING) who is 24+ you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( not to be a cliche heaux but uh give me an overprotective older brother who dinah adores pls )

EMMA FROST, our KATIE CASSIDY fc is looking for her TRIPLETS WITH SCOTT SUMMERS / TWO BIOLOGICAL, ONE ADOPTIVE connection who look like DAYA, LIZA KOSHY, SAFIYA NYGAARD, SEBASTIAN DE SOUZA, HARRIS J, ANY HALF-INDIAN FC IF BIOLOGICAL / RHENZY FELIZ, HAYLEY LAW, ARIELA BARER, ANY FC OF COLOR IF ADOPTIVE who are 16-19 YEARS OLD, 22 OR 24+ YEARS OLD. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( did u know that in an alternate universe scott & emma had five beautiful lil babies? bc they did. and with a tweak. that is what this wc is for. the frost-summers triplets would have prob had a psychic hive mind to rival the cuckoos if an attack hadn’t sent emma into early labour, resulting in one of them not surviving. the decision to adopt a baby in need of a loving home and complete the otherwise ruined trio? not an easy one to make, lets be real, but it was MADE, and the three have been raised as siblings from minute one. emma loves her babies. pls. give them to her. ) ( rohen frost-summers & open for two more ( bio ) )

ETIENNE BEAUBIER-JINADU, our ARIA SHAHGHASEMI fc is looking for a SIBLING connection who looks like NIKOHL BOOSHERI, TALA ASHE, YARA SHAHIDI, REECE KING, HAILEE STEINFELD, LALISA MANOBAN, MANNY MONTANA / PART IRANIAN IF BIO who is ANY AGE you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( the siblings were born in canada - their parents were good people but did the wrong things that got the siblings taken away from their parents. the two were together for awhile in foster care but were eventually separated into two different homes. etienne was eventually adopted into a loving family but it’s up to you what happened to the other sibling after they got separated! they were raised together. took care of each other. for awhile, all they knew was each other. they’re both mutants and their powers kind of reflect thanatos + hypnos, where tye is hypnos and the sibling has death-related powers like thanatos. the sibling can be half, full, adopted, fostered - whatever works. his url is svmnium if you wanna discuss things further! )

FABIAN TODD, our BOB MORLEY fc is looking for a BIO SIBLINGS ( 3 ) connection who looks like LIZA SOBERNO, JAMES REID, PARIS BERELC, KELSEY MERRITT, NICOLE ANDERSON, ASHLEY ARGOTA / ANY RELEVANT FC who is 18-25 you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( so they’re kids of mario falcone + his wife, though fabian doesn’t know it and doesn’t know they’re siblings because fabian was left in an alley not long after they’re birth. they probably won’t know that fabian is their sibling unless they became part of the crime amd mob part of their family,,, which would be really cool imo. )

NADIA KYLE, our ANA DE ARMAS fc is looking for a HALF SIBLING / CHILD OF TED GRANT & QUEEN HIPPOLYTA connection who looks like BLAKE JENNER, CASSADEE POPE, ODETTE ANNABLE / ANY HALF CUBAN, HALF WHITE FC who is YOUNGER or OLDER THAN 30. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( correct me if i’m wrong, but a child of ted “wildcat” grant and queen hippolyta of the amazons is… pretty hot, and i’d love to see them around the place ! this one is fun, because nadia has SUCH an appreciation for strong women as someone who was surrounded by them her whole life, and while this doesn’t mean she’s directly connected to wonderfam, it does mean she likes to think that she is, and probably cites herself as being “five percent wonder woman”. i’d like to think that while her relationship with thomas is more on the strained side - as he remembers her as her true self better than this version she’s become - there’s a chance she’s made more of an effort, here, out of sheer respect for their mother, and as such… means they could be MUCH closer, which is a dynamic that i’m here for. )

NADIA KYLE, our ANA DE ARMAS fc is looking for an OLDER HALF SIBLING / THOMAS BRONSON connection who looks like ANY FC AT LEAST HALF CUBAN who is 35+. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( where thomas really followed in ted’s footsteps… nadia really tried to become her mother, version 2, and that - i think - makes for a pretty interesting sibling dynamic. one is textbook good. the other… morally grey, at the best of times. i’m sure there’s love shared, but nadia didn’t really grow up around many males, either - especially not a lot who were older than her and related to her, so i imagine that she’s spent a great deal of time trying to outdo him. who’s to say she has? her relationship with thomas is probably about as strained as a sibling relationship she has could be, and i’m… so into it. )

NADIA KYLE, our ANA DE ARMAS fc is looking for her MOTHER / SELINA KYLE who looks like MELISSA FUMERO, JOANNA GARCIA / ANY CUBAN FC who is OLD ENOUGH. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( it may be a little cliche, all considered - but there’s a reason that nadia has become the person that she is today, and that reason… is selina. the love she has for her mother, and the idolization that she’s always felt towards her, is unmatched. nadia’s upbringing was unique in that it wasn’t just isolated to selina & ted. rather, it was a combined effort of selina, ted, holly, eiko - and everyone had a huge role, but no one really ever outshone her mother. she’s always wanted to emulate her, because in nadia’s eyes, there’s no one better - and while she’s made mistakes in coming down this road, and while she’s done things that even selina probably can’t be proud of… it’s all been in hopes of both… being half the woman that her mother is, and being someone that selina is proud of. )

NAOMI DANE-SUMMERS, our NAOMI SCOTT  fc is looking for a TWIN connection who looks like AVAN JOGIA, ALIA BHATT, GERALDINE VISWANATHAN, JESSSE RATH, KELLY GALE, SEBASTIAN DE SOUZA, LIZA KOSHY / ANY FACE CLAIM, who is 23 YEARS OLD. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( these two have always been close and taken care of each other. naomi’s about 30 minutes older than this twin, she was born on dec 31st and they were born on january 1st. think wanda & pietro as kids. they really just understood each other and have been attached at the hip since they could remember. naomi’s very introverted so it would be nice if the twin was more of an extrovert - but personality and everything is up to you! only requirement is that if they have a mutant hair color that it’s not green - so pink, purple, blue, white, etc - all very cool! )

NAOMI DANE-SUMMERS, our NAOMI SCOTT fc is looking for a YOUNGER SIBLING connection who looks like HARRIS J, ALIA BHATT, KELLY GALE, GERALDINE VISWANATHAN, DAYA, CHARLI XCX / ANY FACE CLAIM who is 16-22. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( naomi has never been the best older sister, but she does try. it’s possible for them to not be close and be kind of awkward around each other since maybe they don’t know how to be around each other? but naomi loves her baby sibling, despite being bad at showing it. only requirement is that if they have a mutant hair color that it’s not green - so pink, purple, blue, white, etc - all very cool! )

NAOMI DANE-SUMMERS, our NAOMI SCOTT fc is looking for a OLDER HALF SIBLING ( VIA LORNA & MARCOS ) connection who looks like EIZA GONZALEZ, KARLA SOUZA, SEAN TEALE, CHLOE BRIDGES, DAVID LAMBERT, ASHTON MOIO, TYLER POSEY, PETER GADIOT, MICHAEL TREVINO / ANY FACE CLAIM who is 26+. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( naomi is quite close with marcos diaz so i definitely imagine these two having a sort of close-ish relationship. they’re not full siblings but that part has never been important in their family - they’ve always been siblings. only requirement is that if they have a mutant hair color that it’s not green - so pink, purple, blue, white, etc - all very cool! )

ROSARIO HILL, our MELISSA BARRERA fc, is looking for a YOUNGER HALF SIBLINGS / ADOPTED SIBLINGS ( 1 to 2 ) connection who looks like DIEGO TINOCO, TRINITY ANNE, EDEN ESTRADA, SOFIA REYES, CIERRA RAMRIEZ, ISSA LISH, DANNA PAOLA, ARIELA BARER, MANPREET MABRA, LAURA HARRIER, TRISTIN MAYS, LULU ANTARISKA, KEKE PALMER, TAZZY PHE, TINA TAMASHIRO, TOMMY MARTINEZ, MARLON LANGELAND / AT LEAST HALF MEXICAN IF BIO, ANY FACE IF ADOPTED who is UNDER 25 you DON’T have to contact prior to applying.

WINONA FALCONE, our SHAY MITCHELL fc is looking for a OLDER SIBLING connection who looks like UTP / ANY HALF FILIPINO FC who is 27+ YEARS OLD. you DON’T have to contact prior to applying. ( the oldest falcone ! mwahaha. so it’s this whole big thing that WINONA IS THE HEIR, but she wasn’t always. she has an older sibling who was disinherited from the family & cast out. a big ole family disgrace that none of them like to talk about. the reason behind this is up to you ! but it can range from being a MUTANT to a DEGENERATE to being SOFT to whatever. sofia is a pretty uptight gal. )

Nightbeast 

Nightbeast is connected to MST3K in a rather roundabout fashion.  It was made by Baltimore-born director Don Dohler, who also brought us The Galaxy Invader, that movie we saw clips of over the credits of Pod People.  Like Legend of the Dinosaurs it steals plot points from Jaws and then never uses them, but the main reason it makes me think of MST3K is because it has a similar feel to Teenage Strangler, in that we seem to be watching something created by a small town who thought making a movie would be great fun.  Also, I get to embarrass somebody famous again!  Remember when I told you guys that the English script of The Magic Voyage of Sinbad was by Francis Ford Coppola? The soundtrack of Nightbeast was put together by J. J. Abrams.  We all gotta start somewhere.

A little spaceship is touring the solar system when it gets hit by a meteor and crashes on Earth.  The pilot escapes moments before its ship explodes, taking a nearby house with it.  While local law enforcement mobilizes to investigate the fireball, a group of curious campers simply cannot wait, and are fabulously disintegrated.  The next few victims are bloodily disemboweled instead, I guess while the alien waits for its ray gun to recharge, and then the cops show up, leading to an over-long firefight in which only Sheriff Jack Cinder, Deputy Lisa Kent, and one other dude in plaid survive.  It’s up to them to save the town from the extraterrestrial menace!

That’s it, really.  The alien wanders around killing people, Cinder and Kent have some very un-sexy sex, and the lines “be careful!” and “what the hell was that!?” are repeated over and over.  That’s the whole movie.

Nightbeast is terrible on every imaginable level, and because of it, often funny as hell. Its monster is a guy in a silly and immobile alien mask, and despite the title most of the action takes place in broad daylight, giving us a very good look at it.  No motivation is ever suggested for the creature, but based on its silver lame leisure suit and the fact that its ray gun makes people vanish in a variety of effects that look like they were rejected by Xanadu, I like to assume it came to Earth looking for Disco and was pissed to learn it had arrived too late.  The actors are bad, action scenes are confusing and go on way too long, Dohler is fond of inappropriate close-ups, there are random titties just for the sake of having titties in the movie, and the music is… let’s just say there’s a reason J. J. Abrams became famous as a director instead of a composer. There’s a bit where I’m absolutely sure they just stole the Tedddddd… NELSON! theme from The Incredible Melting Man.

In the midst of all this, however, there are a couple of isolated but shining moments of competence.  A sequence in which characters run to take cover behind a stone wall is actually surprisingly tense. The scene of local thug Drago murdering his girlfriend is truly upsetting, as much because of what the movie doesn’t show us as what it does.  The opening ‘space’ sequence is pretty good for the era and budget in which it was created, and there are some gore effects that aren’t bad, either.  You can definitely tell where the production spent its money, and being buried in shit makes these little diamonds sparkle all the brighter.

They still cannot save the movie from its biggest problem, however – which is that there is no plot whatsoever.  Rather than having anything that could be described as a story arc, Nightbeast is just a sequence of events that go nowhere.

Take, for example, a plot point involving Mayor Bert, who’s throwing a party for the Governor and refuses to cancel it despite the murderous alien on the loose.  Oh, boy, this is gonna go badly, isn’t it?  The alien is gonna show up at the party and disintegrate some asses!  No, actually, Plaid Man breaks up the party by announcing that poison gas is seeping out of the mines and everybody needs to leave, which does effectively clear out the town but is definitely not the space monster massacre we were waiting for.  The mayor and his secretary get their extraterrestrial comeuppance later, in a less public and very much less satisfying fashion.

How about the local hunter Cinder calls in to try to disarm the alien?  His son is disintegrated in front of his eyes, prompting him to shoot the ray gun right out of the creature’s hand and then sit down and weep!  Surely this will spur him on to be instrumental in destroying the alien later on.  Surely he’ll be grieving and out for revenge.  Nope, we never see him again.

The nearest things to proper arcs going on in all this are the love story between Cinder and Kent and the grudge between Plaid Man and Drago over how the latter treats his girlfriend Suzie.  These are fairly complete little stories such as they are, I guess, but neither of them has anything to do with the overall plot about the alien killing people.  We get the impression that both sets of events probably would have happened eventually anyway.

A lot of the stuff that’s in the movie, I think is there because somebody on the crew had it lying around and figured they might as well use it.  The ‘party’ sequence happens because they knew a guy with a swimming pool.  They had a ‘severed arm’ prop so they have a bit in which the alien slaps a guy in the shoulder and his arm falls off (watch the movie – there is definitely no tearing happening in that scene).  Somebody knew how to ride a motorcycle so we have both Drago the unconvincing biker and the scene in which Plaid Man (I think his name was Jamie?) rides a bike to the aid of local coroner Ruth, whose house is under siege by the alien.

The overall effect is that the movie feels weirdly incomplete.  The viewer is left with the impression that it was made by people who wanted to make A Movie, and who knew all the parts that movies are supposed to have – a monster, victims, a love story, human villains who get what’s coming to them, etc – and yet were unable to put those parts together into a recognizable whole. The ‘story’ is just a list of vaguely related things that happen, without any sense of direction or a reason why they’re happening in this order and to these people.

This is not the effect the film-makers were going for, because the climax of the movie really does try to bring everything together.  We’re told that the reason the monster hung around the coroner’s house was because it was eating the corpses (this also explains why even before it lost its ray gun, it sometimes just tore people apart instead of disintegrating them), and that a scene in which her assistant escapes using electricity was setting up the alien’s weakness.  The problem here is that these scenes, which were giving us important information, were interspersed with so many that were not important, we saw no reason to pay attention.

There’s not much in the movie that really qualifies as interesting but one thing I did manage to tease out is the types of violence it shows and who are the recipients of that violence. The alien kills men, women, and children indiscriminately, but its most graphic attacks are reserved for the men – there’s the guy on the porch who has his intestines ripped out, the dude in the basement who has his head squeezed off like a grape, and even the man whose arm is lightly slapped off his body.  When the alien kills women, we don’t get to watch – the first female victim we only see blood run down her legs, and although we get the aftermath of the attack on the mayor’s secretary, while it’s going on we only hear the screams.

When women are the subject of overt violence in Nightbeast, their attackers are human.  This is true of the murdered Suzie – while we only see Drago’s face as she is strangled, we do get to watch her be beaten beforehand.  Later, Drago attacks Deputy Kent (I think this is supposed to be revenge for Plaid Man beating Drago up) and we see her both beaten and strangled in some detail, although she survives.  I’ve tried to figure out what this might mean… why do we watch men brutalize women, but not the monster?  The only thing I can come up with is that perhaps it’s to emphasize the difference in the motivation behind the attacks.  The alien kills humans without caring about gender, whereas the men beat women because they are women.  Is this a comment on our own violent proclivities, whereas the alien is killing for food?  I doubt Dohler thought about it that hard.  The rest of the movie is too much of a mess.

Nightbeast is far longer than it should have been and would have been easy to cut down. The shootout sequences would have been way more interesting at half their length, and all of the sunburned 70s titties could go without losing anything of note.  As long as you hang on to your remote to fast forward through the slow bits, then there's lots to enjoy in the amusingly funky alien, the repeated lines and the poor deliveries.  An MST3K version, with the unnecessary bits cut out and commentary from the Satellite of Love, would have been brilliant.

Ep 13: Phil Wang, 34:04

J: Um, [laughing] can you remember some of your choice cuts when you roasted Ed? P: [laughter] J: Can you remember some of the things you said when you roasted Ed? E: I can. P: Uhh. J: I bet, I bet you think of ’em every day, Ed. E: Never forget them—every time I fall asleep I remember them. J: You cry like a little baby boy. Also, did someone else, [to E] you were in the latest series of Roast Battle as well, weren’t you? In another one. E: Christmas special. P: You were in like a day tournament. E: I did a tournament. J: You did a royal rumble. E: I—I roasted Bobby Mair, first. J: Yes. E: Won. J: Whoa! ... Didn’t see that coming, Ed normally loses. E: Then I was in the final, against Suzi Ruffell. J: Yes. E: And I won. P: [gasp] J: [high-pitched] What! E: That’s two roasts to Phil’s one, to James’s zero. P: Aw! J: [shocked inhale] P: He turned it around! He’s the—he’s actually the best roaster in the room! J: He’s actually the roast king! E: I’ve got a trophy. P: Did you! They didn’t give us a trophy!
