#Michelle Rice

[bandydear]

Claudia can’t not die because it’s the whole point of the story. She has to die because she was already dead. Because this is the way it goes. She was a little girl who never got to grow old and it brought her mother to edge of annihilation and instead of succumbing she wrote a story that would have everyone begging for her to live the same way she did in that hospital room all those years ago. It’s always been a story about the unthinkable grief of losing a child and how it destroys everything. And yet, the strength of a well-told tragedy is how you spend even the last moments leading up to it bargaining with the text. Maybe it’ll be different this time. Maybe she’ll escape.

For Michele Rice.

I didn't know this when I set Claudia's celebration of life in early August...

Barack Obama is Scum

If they did all of this to stop DJT from seeking a 2nd term, you can't tell me they didn't steal the 2020 election. If Biden & Kamala had actually won the 2020 election fair and square Obama would have no reason to keep the American people from voting for DJT. Why are they so afraid to let us exercise our constitutional rights to pick our own representatives?

I noticed a pattern during Trump's White House years. Anytime the Deep State would implement an attack on DJT or the Trump Administration the Obama's were conveniently out of the country. Notice they traveled to Australia for Trump's indictment. Coincidence?

If you haven't seen Jesse Waters Tuesday 4-4-2023 show I highly recommend you watch it. He discloses the smoking gun connection bw Biden, Obama and their political prosecution of Donald Trump. Let me warn you that you will either be infuriated, depressed, ill or all three. This Deep State plot against the Trump family and the American people should have these people tried for treason. I'm so angry right now that I can hardly type.

This guy is the smoking gun: Matt Colangelo. When Bragg couldn't find a way to as Dershowitz wrote "Get Trump" Obama transferred his ACTIVIST Matt Colangelo from DC to Manhattan, NY where they created a job for him to Get Trump. Colangelo is responsible for shutting down the Trump Foundation because the board didn't have "official" meetings (Trump & his kids), sending the 70 + year old accountant to Riker's Island, and today the ultimate harassment: putting "handcuffs" on a former President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.

From the Manhattan DA site:

"Manhattan District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg, Jr., today announced the appointment of Matthew Colangelo as new Senior Counsel to the District Attorney. Colangelo, who most recently served as a senior official at the U.S. Department of Justice, will focus on the Office’s cases, policies, and strategies in housing and tenant protection and labor and worker protection, as well as the Office’s most sensitive and high-profile white-collar investigations."

Every Shot of Michelle Jones (Part 28/♾️)

[nalyra-dreaming]

Hello! I don't know if this has been asked before or if you could direct me to the answer if it has been, but do you think they will be killing Claudia off in the show?

With the changes they have made, I am wondering your opinion if that is something they'd keep in, or if they'll save it for modern day? Or do you think they'll change her storyline completely?

Hey!

Claudia will die. In Paris. Gruesomly.

She has to die, for a lot of reasons (and none of them have to do with the racial recasting, though of course this show will likely tap into that as well!). Here is a good post on some of the historical context of it and what it means for the show.

She has already been referred to in past tense on the show, too. And if she were alive Louis would not be sharing her diaries, he would be searching for her.

Her death is a major point in the books, a cataclysmic event, and it carries repercussions. Repercussions which would change the whole of the series if changed, and given what we know already, that is not going to happen.

So no. They won’t change that, imho.

i know the date has passed but one of my super pedantic pet peeves is that claudia's birthday is not september 21st, that's just the day she became a vampire and i like to make that distinction bc the bit where she talks about it in qotd is so fucked up to me and very important for her character

like she doesn't have a history. or at least any biographical details assigned to her are only given to her based on how relevant her new guardians deem it to how they conceptualize her life. the day she was born into the world doesn't matter to them, that would hint at the reality that she existed for any amount of time before they knew her. the only thing that matters to them is when she became part of their little family

When you're so proud of having cooked a proper meal and made enough for the coming days but something about the texture and taste makes you dislike it so much you can barely eat it.🥴

Honor in Crisis

Fandom: DC Comics, Batfam, NTT, Titans, JLI, Arrowfam, Flashfam, GL Corps, Infinity Inc

Summary: Every chapter will focus on one character specifically and then I'll update their statuses in order.

This is a no powers au/fix-it fic for Heroes in Crisis. I wanted to focus on the characters and their healing. I decided that'd be easier to put some of these characters in a fic like this and work on it more from a real-world perspective. I DO want to say that I do not believe healing is linear so don't plan on a clear-cut happy ending. I'd say (and idk for sure) we're gonna eventually get a bittersweet ending for certain characters but nothing tragic.

Chapters: 2/?

Characters: Jason Todd, Bruce Wayne, Kole Weathers, Lilith Clay, Michael Carter, Michelle Carter, Rani Carter, Grant Emerson, Roy Harper, Grant Wilson, Joseph Wilson, Thaddeus Thawne, Bart Allen, Helen Claiborne, President Thawne, Todd Rice, Alan Scott (DCU), Damon Matthews

Relationship(s): Damon Matthews/Todd Rice

Additional Tags: No Powers AU, Canon Divergent AU, Fix-It Fic, Angst, TW // Eating Disorder Mention (please be kind this one was the toughest for me to write personally)

Chapter Two: Watercolor (Kole Weather's POV)

Kole's fingers were stained from the watercolor, but it didn't bother her. Her mind was elsewhere. She took her palm and wiped her forehead, staining her temple. She wiped her hands on a paper towel and picked up the pack of oil pastels. She was startled by the sound of someone knocking a brush washer off the table. "Fuck," they cursed. Kole dropped her oil pastel on the table and got up from the table. She left the room, and a nurse followed her out.

"Kole, is everything alright?" the nurse asked. Kole nodded even though she was trembling from head to toe. The nurse gave Kole a little distance, which she was grateful for, and she closed her eyes and rolled her shoulders back.

Kole was already on edge, and she just wanted to take that as a sign and cancel her plans. She didn't really want her friend to see her. Kole tried to hide the worst of the disorder from her friends, but things had gotten so bad. Kole couldn't remember what happened clearly, but she could recall sobbing because she'd lost clumps of her hair. Never mind the tachycardia and muscle spasms Kole experienced on the floor in the dressing room. She nearly died. That was the last time her friends saw her. That was the image they must've carried in their heads when they thought about her. It happened two months ago, but they hadn't seen her since then.

Kole feared that it'd be too much pressure. She imagined that they'd poke and prod her with all the wrong questions or treat her differently because of what happened. The guilt consumed her. Wasn't that enough? Had the circumstances been different, she would've slipped and refused to eat or hurt herself to stop the panic. Her therapist insisted that it was expected for her to want to self-sabotage in high-stress conditions. At least that's what she remembered. The nurse returned and whispered Kole's name. She snapped back to the present time, and the nurse asked, "Are you ready to go back in?"

Kole nodded. "Yes, sorry," she whispered as she followed the nurse back inside. She sat down in her spot and went back to her art piece. When it was time to move on, Kole went to the cafeteria, and she was met by a friend who immediately lit up upon seeing her.

"I'm so happy to see you," Lilith whispered, "I missed you."

Kole didn't know how to react, but she wrapped her arms around Lilith. Lilith got in line with Kole, and they got dinner together. Kole led Lilith to her usual table, and a nurse sat down next to her. Lilith sat across from her. Kole's hands shook as she looked down at her plate. It wasn't until she heard Lilith's spoon hit the bowl that she looked up. "Can I tell you something? Sister-to-sister?" Lilith questioned as she glanced up at Kole. Kole was relieved to hear that Lilith still considered her a sister. Kole nodded. "I know I'm the first person to come visit, and I know this might seem overwhelming, but I'm grateful that you let me come. I also want you to know that I don't want to rush you."

"Thanks, Lil," Kole mumbled. She meant it.

She started eating, and Lilith started rambling about how a showcase she was in. It didn't bother Kole to hear about it. In fact, she'd been excited to get back to dancing. That was one of the things she had to look forward to. "Sorry, Kole... I'm just so nervous," Lilith chuckled.

"No, it's okay. I was actually—. I was looking forward to dancing with you again," Kole whispered. She tensed, waiting for Lilith to speak. Kole wondered if Lilith would try to let her down easily. She wondered if Lilith would say she wasn't ready yet.

"There's nothing that I'd want more," Lilith replied. They both went back to eating, and for just a moment, Kole forgot where she was. Dinner was surprisingly good for once. Lilith and Kole met eyes while they were chewing, and Kole chuckled. "What?" Lilith laughed.

"This wasn't as bad as I thought it would be," Kole replied after swallowing her food. Lilith smiled at her. Lilith took a sip of her water and smiled.

"Good," Lilith whispered.

Lilith was so good to her despite the issues Kole had with Lilith's mother. They both had problems with her, but that's what made them sisters. After they finished eating dinner, Lilith said her goodbyes, and Kole grabbed her hand. "You'll come back, won't you?" Kole asked. Lilith smiled and embraced her.

"I will," Lilith whispered, "Just let me know when."

As soon as Lilith was gone, Kole felt an emptiness inside herself. She lounged on the couch watching tv. She glanced over at the young man on the other end of the sofa as he mouthed the words to the tv show's episode silently to himself. His hands were burned, and so were parts of his neck and face. "Is this your favorite show?" Kole asked. He shook his head.

"No, I was on set when this was filmed," he replied. Kole looked back at the tv, and he whispered, "He's gone... He's gone to be with the lord," in sync with the tv.

Kole smiled. She thought it was funny that the young man always did that. She sometimes liked to watch the other patients. Things could be dreary, but seeing people smiling and laughing was pleasant. It made her think that she could be happy. Really happy.

She hugged her knees as she sat on the couch and dozed off in front of the tv. She wasn't sure how long she'd been asleep, but someone woke her up in time for their group to reflect on their goals. Kole rushed to her usual seat, and she took a deep breath. She was hesitant to share, but she always forced herself to. Four people went before her, and when it came to her, she took a deep breath and closed her eyes. "I had dinner with my friend today. She came here and sat in with me... I wanted to hurt myself, so I wouldn't have to see her... But I had fun. I didn't think I would, but I did," Kole whispered. She didn't look up for fear of making eye contact with a specific person in the group.

"So you want to be applauded for what? Not slipping?" a young man in the group asked.

"Dude!" someone chastised him. "Kole, personally, I wish I was ready to have meals with my family."

"Thank you, but it's okay. No one owes me any recognition. I'm just—. I'm proud of myself, and I didn't want to be ashamed of my anxieties," Kole clarified. Standing up for herself. She proudly smiled as she looked down at her lap. It was a good end to a difficult day.
