.*･｡ﾟ☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ

You were walking down your great uncle's neighborhood in Wyoming. He was rich and he was surrounded by billionaires. There was a house in the corner that caught your eye. It was dark and gloomy. You were told the owner was a rockstar from the 80s. He was from a band called “Motley Crue”. His name was Nikki SIxx. You were told the 65 year old rockstar was not retired. Someone showed you clips of him at his concerts. The next day you were walking again and you dropped your phone in front of Nikkis' house. Nikki was taking a stroll down his yard and saw you. He came up to you to say hi.

“Hi, where are you from?” His question was random, especially since you guys just met.

“Hi i'm from Kentucky” You say while reaching for his hand so you could shake it. 

He reaches for your hand after he sees it and he shakes it with a firm grip. His touch felt cold and separated.

“So what are you doing here?” He asks with a smile. He was like a cop interrogating you.

“My great uncle invited my family to stay at his place for a couple of weeks. He says he was feeling lonely and wanted company so he called and now I'm here” You say.

“I see how do you like Wyoming so far?” He asks you.

“It's fine. I mean it isn't like California or New York but I guess that's because we aren't in the city” You chuckle.

“Oh trust me I used to live in California, it was all chaos even in the non city areas.” Nikki says.

“Hey maybe we should go talk about this over lunch if you want to go out one day.” You chuckle.

“Oh yeah definitely.” He smiles. “Do you want to go right now? I am not doing anything at the moment” He says with a hopeful expression.

“Oh yeah sure” You smile.

You both get in his truck. 

“This is a nice truck you have” You smile.

“Why thank you!” He laughs.

His hand can’t help but rest on your bare thigh.

You don't wait any longer and you get on top of Nikki and you straddle him in the driver's seat. Your lips make their way to his lips. You both are now making out as Nikki has a gentle hold on your body that was sitting on him. Nikki pulls the seat back so the wheel isn't in your back's way.

“Mmm, Nikki your lips taste so fucking amazing,” You say.

Nikki throws you to the back of his car and gets on top of you. His phone was in his back pocket and he didn't realize he accidentally called Tommy Lee the drummer of his band. Nikki feels his phone getting in the way so he throws it to the front passenger seat. Tommy heard you say that Nikki's lips taste amazing. Nikki pulls his huge cock out and sticks it at your entrance. His hips start to roll on yours. Tommy decides to stay on the call and listen to every movement you guys are making. Tommy is smirking listening to you guys make love in the back of his truck.

“Oh fuck Y/N You feel so fucking good. I love holding your body in my arms” Nikki groans as he rolls his hips on yours faster and faster.

“Nikki I’m almost there” You cry and your legs start to shake. Your eyes go to the back of your head.

“Baby let me taste you for lunch” Nikki groans.

He keeps pumping your pussy faster. You orgasm around his cock and he dumps his wet load in you. 

Your slick gets all over his car seats and he pulls his cock out of you and starts to lick the car seats. 

“Oh fuck this is good” Nikki chuckles.

“This is getting juicy,” Tommy says to himself. Nikki hearts mumbling from the front seat. 

“Tommy?” Nikki says surprised 

“Fuck who the fuck-” Nikki says realizing Tommy is not here.

You both quickly put your clothes on because you thought you were being spied on. You both go to the front and you see Nikki's phone. It says it's on call with Tommy.

“Fuck do you think you accidentally called him while we were kissing?” You ask frantically 

“Nikki, I heard everything,” Tommy laughs.

“Fuck you son of a bitch why didnt you cut the call?” Nikki says embarrassed.

“Y/N i’m so sorry that was my drummer being a creep,” Nikki says upset. 

“Alright, i’m going to go now” You say awkwardly after fucking a rockstar.

“Wait, let me give you my phone number,” Nikki says.

“Don't accidentally dial me while you're having sex” You chuckle. Both of you laugh it off and go get something for lunch.

OUAW EP 45:

Spoilers!!

“WHY DID WE DO THAT” yes Gricko why indeed

Bit quick to jump to nudity there Torbek

Gricko is just full of great ideas today

“You are familiar with mirages” THIS ALMIRAJ IS NO MIRAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nikkie: “You don’t really understand how this works” Mace/Gideon, immediately: “I know exactly how this works”

This desert is getting eerily intense

I love how they’re showing Torbek gaining control of the Witchlight and the Other

“Together, as a unit, as you do everything, you decide to tackle this next obstacle” ACK MY HEART I FUCKING LOVE FOUND FAMILY SHIT THIS IS SO GOOD

How are y’all interpreting Gricko’s monstrosity connection? Bc I’ve been doing it as like a really enthusiastic zoologist but what if he’s also a monsterfucker

Sorry that was a little unhinged and sudden but I think i might be right he does have a thing for monstrous women who could decimate him with one move

Anyways!

Love how Frost always wants to talk first but Gideon is immediately “IM GONNA GETCHU”

Gideon is going to oneshot this tricobra/cobydra if he keeps this up

“Two attacks on Frost” “no thankyou ❤️”

OH SHIT KREMY’S DICE MOVE HUNGER OF HADAR. HOLY FUCK.

Rich is so good at flavoring this spell and its effects

Mace/Gideon “Don’t roll max against me” and then Rich doesn’t— that’s Kremy employing Husband Privilege right there

What is the realm they are talking about?? Ghettei? Gehettei? Whatever realm they say Kremy is bringing with Hunger of Hadar

Goddamn that’s a lot of damage at once

Torbek and Gideon and Hootsie bro moment 😎

“Torbek accidentally Longscarfed him” 😭❤️

WHAT IS THIS FUCKING LIGHT?????????

Love how Nikkie just keeps repeating the generic desert description like an NPC in a game when you try to talk to them too much

HOLY SHIT okay 1. The immersion hell yeah 2. Why. Why is there a swamp here again. The swamp was supposed to be gone. There wasn’t supposed to be more swamp.

SERIOUSLY WHY IS THERE A SWAMP

“Blow on my dice” there is no heterosexual explanation for this

Now I have this horrible image in my head of Kremy pulling an Entrapta and going “I just need a little more time”

GRICKO DONT CALL TO MR GARU

“I am the thing that remains when the alphabet is gone” this is giving me such a good idea for a Tower of Babel campaign wait a minute

Ah yes just like the 1999 classic film The Mummy—- *I am forcibly removed from the stage*

It IS TIME!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY FUCK HES RIGHT

Is. Is the swoose sounding like Bavlorna on purpose. Is this a plot thing. Please this is so important—- Bc there’s an hourglass on the archway, so it has to be time and also maybe the voice is important— Oh. Okay. So not like Bavlorna.

What is the realization Andy is having???? Oh my god I need to know

Does the fact that this is Nekhbet and the lion-headed guardian mean Egyptian mythology at all influences this part of the story? And maybe the Hourglass Coven in some sort of way if this temple is here? Was this temple originally of the Hourglass Coven, or was it taken over???

The emotion in Mace’s storytelling is incredible and then he has a your mom joke. Alright.

Andy and Mikey’s reactions are beautiful things to watch

“We’ve been free ever since”

Fic idea: Kremy and Gideon get married and uh. Yknow Gricko’s entire thing about getting Pa Coal to come to one of Gideon’s weddings? Somehow that happens but it’s a really sad moment bc Pa Coal is dead so it’s an urn and Gideon gets to have a moment just talking to the urn

OH SHIT THE BIRTH OF THE HAGS?!?!??? Wait wait wait I have so many questions— to be made into a hag, do they need to find this temple first?? Does this temple somehow lead to the hag hut??? What is the thing that drinks the brew in the hag hut?????? How did that being come to exist???????? How is this temple connected to the thing that makes the hags???????? Is this a temple of time or of memories and records????

What is the process of making a hag??? Do all hags come about via this process????

Wait a minute. We had a white horse and rider statue, now we have a red one— if the next one is black then these are the riders of Baba Yaga and maybe that is who makes all the hags— like a sort of Mother Hag situation??

Frost is right, I think, this is also a story or situation or whatever about choice (esp bc of the swoose at the entrance)

I need a series which is just Gricko explaining everything that’s happened in the campaign in extreme detail

“We hit rock bottom and we picked up shoooveeeelllls.”

Ayo Bavlorna what the fuck— Endolyn’s story was terrible but this is another level

So these hags are not actually sisters then? Or are they sisters because they all come from the same source? (Whatever makes the hags)

Yuuuup I was right about the riders!!!!!

Idk why but Kremy’s story hits for me

Nikkie this is so impressive. Holy shit— this isn’t in the module. She wrote these backstories herself. Wow.

And the flipped time order of everything!!! And the Granny Nightshade symbolism

Wait blue roses??? Like the ones in Twig’s eyes???????

WHAT IF THIS IS THE KINGDOM OF HEARTS DESIRE WHAT IF THEY ARE AT THE DOOR RN

Andy what are you doing

Oh shit. Next is the fabled Episode 46. Ohhhh lord. What’s gonna happen………

How much time has passed for the Feywild while they’re in the material plane???

Gahhhh!!!! The lore!!!!!!!!!!!! So good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait okay there’s a connection to Prime but I haven’t watched Prime and it’s 91 episodes there’s no way I can watch all that rn but I NEED TO KNOW THE AVANTRIS LORE AND WHAT THE CONNECTION IS OMFG

So much happened!!!!! Holy fuck!!!!!!!!! And next is Episode 46 I’m gonna have my brain explode

[teddypickerry]

Hey please can I request a Nikki Sixx x reader! Just a bit of jealous! Nikki, something along the lines of that there either at a music awards or some red carpet and the boys are off performing, and whilst waiting with the other s/os reader gets hit on by someone, and she plays into it, until the boys return and all hell breaks loose because no one flirts with Nikkis girl

𝐍𝐈𝐊𝐊𝐈’𝐒 𝐆𝐈𝐑𝐋!

pairings! 2000s nikki x younger gf

warnings! age gap couple (not specified age), i think that’s it

word count! 900

a/n! hi mfs. alive & thriving w another nikki fic. i didn’t specify his exact age or the readers. but it is hot 2000s nikki bc he is my bf (real). so. DEAL WITH ITTTT.

AS IF BEING IN A RELATIONSHIP with a rockstar wasn't enough pressure from the public eye and his many (envious) female fans, music awards were pure stress. although your boyfriend, nikki, grew out of his phase of attending every spectacular event, you were still in attendance of a few of them. while nikki loved showing you off and having you there for support, you didn't quite enjoy it as much as you wished. although the thought of fangirling over your favorite musicians sufficed — you also had to deal with the overwhelming flood of hate directed at your relationship on social media the next morning.

it was always the same headlines. "nikki's downgraded to another twenty-year old" "y/n is hardly enough for a rockstar" "he's probably off cheating on her as per usual" or "i prefer nikki and his ex" it's just pure judgment of a relationship they haven't even witnessed. they don't see the love you share or how well the man treats you.

but the headlines truly didn't matter as much as supporting your boyfriend and his career, his passion. so, you found yourself sat at the rock 'n' roll hall of fame inductory evening. although mötley had yet to be awarded for their one of a kindness in the rock industry, they were still being honored tonight in the form of performing. which excited all four of them because whether or not they liked it, they would be performing infront of the most iconic and talented musicians. mick couldn't stop talking about jeff beck on the car ride over. he didn't want to fuck up in the god's presence.

but so far he'd done excellently during the beginning and chorus of 'kickstart my heart' which was a song having the crowd losing their shit. and quite honestly, so were you. you hadn't seen nikki perform too many times due to busy schedules and god was it hot. but as the hit came to the end, you noticed a man inching closer to you in his chair. he was only a few down from you but since the band was up on stage, they left you, their empty chairs, and tommy's girlfriend. you shot her an odd look as she glanced in the man's direction, shrugging it off. you decided to do the same until he filled your boyfriend's position beside you. which only made you ultimately uncomfortable.

"what's a beautiful girl like you doing here alone tonight? looking for eligible bachelors?" the man whispered towards you ear while the crowd roared in cheers for the notorious rock band. you simply rubbed your lips together without turning in his direction. your eyes locked on your boyfriend exiting the stage and heading backstage. "eligible bachelors?" you scoffed, simply annoyed with the toying of flirtation.

"yeah, some rich rocker... but you seem like a self-made typa woman," he quipped as his eyes travelled your tight fitting dress. your eyes finally caught a glimpse of him — recognizing him as some drummer in a rock band not so popular. but you knew him from your brother's crippling obsession with underground bands. "what does that even mean?"

"you've got a mouth on you..." he smirked while running a hand through his short dark hair as if he was all that. which only got on your nerves even more as you messed with your up-do, watching them announce commercial break upon the stage. but this guy wasn't letting go. "so are you an artist, producer, manager, a plus one, perhaps?"

"plus one." you responded with a glare as the man attempted to scoot closer to you. your thighs brushed for a moment before you shoved over to the next chair — visibly uncomfortable. "will you leave her alone?" tommy's girlfriend asked as she viewed the situation. the man furrowed his eyebrows before shooting a charming smile. "just making conversation."

you crossed your arms defensively as tommy's girlfriend shot you a sympathetic look. "so who're you with then, doll?" the drummer asked daringly. which only made you hold back an eye roll. "just saw him onstage."

"one of the old guys, cmon." he rolled his eyes as if it were nonsense. even though he couldn't be much younger than nikki himself. it was when nikki's death glare caught his attention that his eyes slightly widened. "old guys? will you get the fuck out of my chair before i deck you in the fucking face." sixx warned as the man stood up quickly and made his way towards the aisle and as far from the group as possible. slash laughed from the row behind. "jesus christ," you mumbled as nikki took a seat beside you. you scooted into him, back into your old seat. the rest of the band followed behind him and questioned the man practically drooling over you.

nikki wrapped an arm around you as you placed a kiss to his cheek. "thanks for saving me, rockstar." you whispered which made him smile slightly before going back to his 'hardcore rockstar' look. "yeah well, no one messes with nikki's girl."

"dumbass," tommy mumbled beside the in love nikki. all while the bassist was planning the ways he was going to fuck up the guy hitting on you after the show.

These moments totally happened at the GOP primary debate

WaPo satirist Alexandra Petri add her spin on the Republican primary debate. This is a gift 🎁 link so that those who do not subscribe to The Washington Post can read the entire article. Below are some excerpts. Enjoy! 😁

If you said, “Would you like to watch Ron DeSantis, Vivek Ramaswamy, Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, Doug Burgum, Mike Pence, Asa Hutchinson and Chris Christie talk to each other for two hours? FYI, the place where they’ll do so is hotter than Beelzebub’s armpit!,” I would have said, “No, thank you.” But if you said, “The alternative is watching Donald Trump talk to Tucker Carlson on the website formerly known as Twitter,” I would say, “I can’t wait to hear what Ron, Vivek, Nikki, Tim, Doug, Mike, Asa and Chris have to say!” [...] Here is approximately how it went. Bret Baier: Hello. We have brought a bell just because we enjoy the sound of a bell. Martha MacCallum: Feel free to speak over it; it will give the evening a fun, musical vibe. Baier: Yes, and speaking of music, candidates, the number one song in America is something called “Rich Men North of Richmond”! Governor DeSantis, introduce yourself by providing a close reading of the subtle lyrics of this song. DeSantis: Hang on, first I have some prepared remarks! Joe Biden’s basement! Hunter Biden’s paintings! “Rich Men North of Richmond”! Taxes! Florida! Baier: Chris Christie, why would you be better as president? Christie: Bret, I have spent the last four years sailing around sharpening my traffic-cone harpoon for my hated foe (from hell’s heart I spit my last breath at him!), and the one question I did not expect was about a scenario where I could actually become president. Uh, I was governor of New Jersey? So, take that for what it’s worth.

[See more under the cut.]

Scott: I have come to this debate with some specific numbers at my fingertips! I was told everyone would be excited about specific numbers! If not, I would really like those hours back. Ramaswamy: Hello! You may be wondering, who is this skinny guy with a funny name? I’m not a politician who is going to offer you a series of prepared, meaningless platitudes. I’m a businessman with no political experience who is going to offer you a series of prepared, meaningless platitudes. Isn’t it time we stopped running away from things and started running toward things? I am not running for president so much as I am running for the title of Favorite Grandson of your Fox News grandmother. Have you ever considered that people don’t love God anymore? [...] Pence: Hello! I am here to recite scripture and keep referring to the Trump-Pence administration, and I’m all out of scripture. That was some Mike Pence humor; I will never be out of scripture! I am unquestionably the best-prepared person in this race, the single individual with the experience that is closest to being the president, with no exceptions that spring to mind. I have been in the hallway. I have been in the White House. Do you like what my administration did with the Supreme Court? [...] Ramaswamy: You think now is the time for incremental reform. I think it is the time for actual revolution. Pence: Good Lord, no thank you. I do not have any revolutionary proposals. I believe in mild, small, incremental change. Except for a nationwide 15-week ban on abortion, which I want to implement because I promised it to God. Haley: Let’s be realistic! Women hate hearing this. Let’s just admit that it will never happen. But we’re all going to say we want it to happen! But, ladies, it’s not going to happen. [...] Young Person: Please tell me that anyone on this stage believes in climate change, the only issue I care about because I anticipate living on this planet for at least 60 years. I am starting to get worried. Can we have a show of hands? DeSantis: No! We are not schoolchildren! We will not raise our hands or acknowledge the existence of science! Ramaswamy: As the only one on this stage who is not bought and paid for, I have a thought. Christie: I have had enough of a guy who sounds like ChatGPT and stole his opening gambit from Barack Obama. I came here to bludgeon Donald Trump verbally, but Trump is not here and I have a lot of verbal bludgeoning built up. [...] Baier: Why do we have homelessness, drugs and crime? Pence: Because Democrats talked about defunding the police, and everyone knows that if you say “Defund the police!” into a mirror three times, crime appears. It’s just science, or, as Governor DeSantis and I prefer, religion. Christie: I disagree. Crime went up because Hunter Biden did it.

Please use the gift link above to read the rest of Petri's cutting satire.

Just one thing I would like to comment on though. I grew up in NJ... BEYOND the exits on the Turnpike. Why does there always have to be a NJ joke?🤦🏻‍♀️There really are nice parts of NJ. Really. I mean it. 😉

summer loving (two) ⎸ t.h

⌙ summary: your mom and tom’s mom grew up together, swearing that their kids would be life long friends. and it was true, the holland boys were a special part of your life. but on the annual trip to their beach house this summer, everything feels different. and that’s because it is.

⌙ au:  based on the book and tv show ‘the summer i turned pretty’ by jenny han. childhood friends to lovers

⌙ wc: 2.2k

⌙ warnings: swearing, tom being an asshole lowkey, sam being sweet as ever, some fluff and ANGST as hell. a special guest appearance that’ll be important later on!!!! it’s lowkey driving me crazy.

⌙ pairing: tom holland x fem!reader

masterlist ⎸ chapter one ⎸ chapter three ⎸ listen

                               ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

you sat on the sofa in the living room, absentmindedly scrolling through netflix. you had been on the beach earlier with sam, the two of you catching some waves at sunrise. watching the sun come up as you sat on your board was another one of your favorite things to do during the summer, the view alone being breath taking. 

you were about to click on a show in your watchlist as nikki sat down next to you, two cups of coffee in her hand as she handed you one. you smiled at her, sitting up as you grabbed the mug.

“thank you.”

“of course,” she smiled, “figured you’d need it since you had to deal with sam so early.”

you chuckled, “it was my idea, so i had no choice but to suffer his wrath.”

she let out a giggle before taking a sip of her coffee, “hey, i’ve got a question for you.”

you hummed back, sipping your own coffee, “what’s up?”

“so, my friend carol at the country club was saying that this year one of the girls who was a big sister for this year’s debutante ball got sick and she can’t do it this year. i was wondering, since you did it when you were the other girls’ age, would you be interested in doing it?”

you cringed at the mention of the debutante ball. you had agreed to do be a debutante when you turned 16, wanting to give nikki the opportunity to see you, who she considered a daughter, live out the same experience she had when she was at that age. you actually had a good time, but the thought of going back with cut throat girls who care way too much about what dress they’re wearing made you cringe.

but, you knew nikki would want you to do it. so, you felt like you couldn’t say no. plus, you had a great big sister when you were going through the program and the idea of being that for another girl kind of made you excited. 

“uhm, sure,” you shrugged, “why not?”

she smiled as she let out a squeal, hugging you. you laughed, hugging her back, “oh my god, thank you! thank you, thank you, thank you!”

you giggled as she rose from her seat, “i’ll call carol right now.”

you nodded, sighing as you mentally slapped yourself. you knew what you were signing up for, but the idea of getting all dressed up again was a plus. you watched as harry entered the room, eyebrows furrowed as he looked at his mom who happily ran back to the kitchen before looking back at you.

“what’s that all about?”

you sighed as he took the seat next to you, “the curse of rich people, that’s what.”

“i’m gonna need you to elaborate.”

you were about to speak when your phone started to buzz, looking down you saw an incoming facetime call. you sprung up from your seat, taking the coffee from the table before running to the stairs, “i’ll explain later!”

he shook his head, grabbing the remote from the arm of the couch as he mumbled under his breath, “girls, man.”

you shut your bedroom door, answering the call as you smiled, “hey! i’ve been meaning to call!”

“shut up and tell me all the spicy details right now.” your best friend, kat, laughed. you smiled back, rolling your eyes. the two of you had been friends since elementary school, a life long bond. besides the hollands, kat was your only other longest friend.

“what details?” you asked, playing dumb as you propped your phone on the vanity that sat in the corner of the room.

“oh my god, don’t play dumb! the tom drama!”

you sighed, “well, nothing’s really happened besides the fact that we almost kissed-”

“you guys almost kissed?!” she cut you off. you laughed again, shaking your head.

“it was nothing, nothing happened! we didn’t kiss, we didn’t do anything at all… thanks to sam.”

“sam?”

“yeah, he came down to the beach when tom and i were about to kiss and made us jump apart. he didn’t really look happy about the whole thing, either.”

“i told you, y/n! i told you, sam has a thing for you!”

you shook your head, “or maybe he just doesn’t want his big brother kissing one of his best friends.”

“oh, come on!” she laughed, “sam has a thing for you! trust me!”

you shrugged, “i don’t think so, kat.”

“okay, whatever you say. but tell me about this kiss, though? when? where? how?”

you began explaining the story to her and she gasped, you nodding your head as she sat in disbelief. of course she knew about the fact that you’ve been totally crazy about tom ever since you were younger, she knew about everything in your life. she was literally your right hand man, someone you could tell anything and everything to.

you spent the next 30 minutes on the phone with her, catching up. just as you had ended the call, there was a knock on your bedroom door.

“come in,” you answered as sam poked his head in through the crack.

“wanna go into town with me? kinda craving a bagel.”

you smiled, “is that even a question?”

“downstairs in 10?” he smiled back at you. you nodded as he closed the door behind him. you grabbed a tank top and a pair of shorts, quickly changing as you grabbed your wallet and sunglasses. you slipped on your flip flops before making your way down the steps. you stood in the living room as you watched the boys sitting on the couch, standing next to sam as you took in the sight in front of the both of you.

harry, austin and paddy were all a sniffling mess on the couch, wiping the tears from under their eyes as they looked at the tv.

“what’s wrong with them?”

“the notebook.” sam smirked back.

“it’s a great movie!” austin defended, handing a tissue to harry. you bit back a laugh, covering your mouth to avoid the laugh from slipping out. sam grabbed the keys from off the table, shaking his head as he looked back at you.

“ready for a delicious bagel?” 

“always.”

“wait, you guys are going to ken’s?” paddy asked, looking up at his older brother.

“yeah, want something?”

“my usual, please.” he smiled, wiping his face with the neck of his t-shirt. you let out a giggle as sam nodded, the both of you making your way to the jeep in the driveway. you hopped in the passenger seat, snatching the aux cord from the cup holder before sam could get to it.

“okay, if you’re gonna play music, at least play good music.”

you let out a fake gasp as you held a hand up to your heart, “rude! my music taste is better than yours!”

“debatable.”

you smacked his arm playfully as he pulled out of the driveway. you watched the scenery go past as sam made his way into town, the music playing in the background. you bit the inside of your cheek as you internally debated bringing up what has been up with tom recently.

if anyone would tell you, it’d be sam.

“what’s up with tom recently? i mean, he’s been a little… distant? i guess.”

he shrugged as he looked over at you, “i don’t know. i know he’s been down ever since he found out about alexis, but he’s been this way since he got home. i think he’s just trying to process everything.”

you nodded, “‘m just worried about him, you know? i know he works hard, but i think it’s really taking a toll on him.”

sam nodded, “yeah, i don’t know. he’s just been drained recently. he’ll be alright, though. i feel like this summer will pull him out of it.”

you nodded, “yeah, i hope so.”

he pulled up to the bagel shop, parking the car before the both of you got out. he opened the door to the shop for you, making you smile as you walked in. sam followed behind you. the owner of the shop smiled, seeing sam as he greeted him.

“mr. holland! welcome back to the island!”

sam laughed, “‘sup, ken. can i get-”

“your usuals? i’ve got you, sam.”

“thanks, mate.”

“of course, anything for my favorite customer!”

you and sam made small talk, smiling as ken called sam’s name.

“anything else for you, son?”

“that’ll do it, ken. thank you.”

“of course! you enjoy it! tell your mom and dad i said hello.”

“sure thing.”

sam paid for the food before grabbing the brown bag. you opened the door for him, making him laugh.

“wow, thank you, miss.”

“of course, sir.”

the ride back to the house was quiet, nothing but the sound of your summer playlist playing through the speakers. you couldn’t help but wonder what was going on with tom. you knew that he was having a hard time with things, but to go MIA for hours a day, it wasn’t like him.

which is why you were surprised that you saw his black audi parked outside of the house when you got back. your heart beat quickened, the two of you walking inside as you followed the commotion coming from the kitchen. you smiled, placing the bag of bagels down on the island as everyone settled down. you and sam shared a look at everyone’s sudden quietness, wondering what it was that they didn’t want you two knowing about.

“hey, sweetie,” your mom smiled, “we were just talking about what we’re going to do for your birthday in a couple weeks.”

“nikki’s talking about having a party.” harry blurted and austin elbowed him. you laughed, handing out the bagels as you shook your head.

“we don’t have to have a party, nikki.”

“no, but it’d be fun! we haven’t had a party here for you since you were 21.”

“plus, haz and tuwaine could come in, and kat. i’m sure they’d all love to come.” tom suggested, everyone nodding at the idea. you shrugged, opening the foil wrapping of your bagel before taking a bite.

“it’ll be fun, y/n,” sam said, agreeing with the others, “let us celebrate you.”

you sighed, knowing you were going to lose this fight, “god, alright! fine, but i don’t want anything big. us, maybe a few girls from the deb if any of them aren’t unbearable, kat, tuwaine and haz. that’s it. nothing big, please.”

“the deb?” austin asked, “aren’t you a little too old for the deb?”

you rolled your eyes, “not too old to be a big sister.”

“you’re gonna be a big?” your mom asked and you looked over at nikki who smiled.

“i asked her this morning, one of the girls they had as a big can’t do it because she got sick. i told them that y/n would fill her place. i think it’d be fun, y’know? having a little sister, being a mentor for a girl. it’s exciting.”

“you don’t have to go to the ball do you?” paddy asked, scrunching his nose at the memory of you going to the deb ball. you shrugged, looking over at nikki.

“no, she doesn’t have to. she’s just there to be a mentor.”

“good, deb balls are bullshit, anyway.” tom mumbled. the boys agreed and you locked eyes with tom. 

“they’re not bullshit.” you said back.

“really? being around girls who are too worried about the price of a dress and the way their hair looks than anything else?”

“so you’re saying i suddenly care about the way my hair looks?”

“clearly not.” he shot back, looking at the messy bun on the top of your head. you narrowed your eyes at him as sam let out a whistle, widening his eyes at the fact that he knows his brother is about to be in deep shit.

“y’know what, at least i actually converse with the family and i’m not always off doing god knows what.”

everyone fell silent, listening to the both of you hash it out. you weren’t sure where his sudden outburst came from, but you knew it was kind of uncalled for. 

“just saying, the deb isn’t your scene. never was, never will be.”

you rolled your eyes, “right, because you know what’s best for me.”

“okay, let’s chill out for a second, guys.” nikki interfered. you got up from your seat at the island, throwing your trash away as you made your way out the back door. you didn’t mean to, but you heard the slam of the door on your way out. you walked down the path to the beach, finding comfort in the sound of the waves crashing against the shore. you sat with your hands in your lap, taking in the view once more.

suddenly, there was a golden retriever running up to you. you smiled, greeting the dog as you pet his head. you laughed as he licked your face, hearing someone call for the dog.

“oh my god, i’m so sorry.” you looked up and smiled, meeting a pair of brown eyes. you smiled back at the boy. he had a head full of brown curls, a perfectly sunkissed body, and a small scar on his cheek. you hadn’t realized that you’d been staring at the stranger, a blush forming on your cheeks as he scanned over your facial features, also.

“no, it’s okay,” you smiled, “he’s just a boy who doesn’t get any lovin’, huh?”

the boy let out a laugh, “yeah, we can say that.”

“what’s his name?”

“tarzan.” he smiled.

“hi, tarzan,” you giggled before looking up at the boy who looked to be around your age, “sorry, i’m y/n. nice to meet you.”

“shawn,” he said, “nice to meet you, too.”

“Okay, well thanks for checking.”

I watched as Doc hung up the phone, his hand moving down his face in exhaustion. That was the fourth person he had called and there was still no sign of Nikki. “Haven’t seen him.” He muttered as he started to pace. “I don’t know who else to call or even know where to look. He could be halfway out of California right now for all I know.”

The party quickly died out after Nikki and I’s explosive reunion. Nobody was really in the mood to party anymore after having to dodge glass bottles and whatever else Nikki could get his hands on.

“I doubt he went very far –“ I started. “He’s high off his ass, Doc. He probably went back to his house to get even more loaded.” Doc shook his head. “You knew this was going to happen – You and I both knew he wouldn’t react well to seeing me.”

“Well, I thought he would have a change of heart.” He rushed. “The bastard hasn’t seen you in a few years – he was fucking infatuated with you – he fucking loved you.”

“She left his ass standing on the stoop outside of his house, Doc.” Vince interjected. “Would you be happy to see the woman that left you the way she left him? He was a fucking wreck because of Bryant – You think this time is going to be any different?”

I turned to look at the blonde, “Everyone forgets the fact that he’d been cheating for months.” Our eyes locked. “But yet I’m the asshole because I stood up for myself and left. I guess I should’ve been like the whores you get with that’ll stay no matter how many women you’re fucking.”

He puckered his lips, earning a laugh from the bimbo attached to his side.

Vince and I never had the type of friendship that I had with Mick and Tommy. We tolerated each other and that was it. I was there the day he showed up to Nikki’s apartment.  His girlfriend led the way into the living room – the arrogance flowing from her like a cheap perfume. She was your typical rich girl from the Valley, who was basically just with Vince to piss off her parents. She bought that son of a bitch anything he wanted – spending thousands of her parent’s money on the man. I guess the coke they spent so much time snorting damaged not only her brain cells but also her judgement.

I rolled my eyes in disgust before removing myself from the couch. Doc had retreated to the backyard, a portable phone pressed against his ear as he walked along the pools edge. I decided that this was my que to leave – taking matters into my own hands. I knew of some places that Nikki frequented when we were together. If he wasn’t at his house, then I would try those places. Unlucky for Doc, he was notorious for leaving his car keys in the ignition – easy access for anyone that wanted to take it. I threw my purse into the passenger seat before climbing in and starting the engine. I tore out of Vince’s driveway – speeding onto the freeway as the warm, night air whipped through my hair.

“You think this is okay – You look like you’re ten seconds away from the fucking grim reaper coming for your ass!” He rolled his eyes as he paced the kitchen – his fists balled up at his sides. “Doc called me and ask-“

“You fucking called her?” His eyes wild as he stared Doc down. “You fucking called her!”

“I had no other choice, Nikki.” Doc was terrified. “You’re getting worse every day and you won’t listen to anyone at this point. I had no other person to turn too - She’s your wife, Nikki.”

“Ex-wife.” Nikki and I spoke at the same time.

Doc let out a sigh, “Wife, ex-wife – It’s all the fucking same. You two were married – you were madly in love with each other. Yeah, it ended badly but I know for a fucking fact that Bryant still cares enough about you to not want to see you like this.”

I kept my eyes on Nikki, “If he wants to kill himself with a needle then that’s his fucking choice.”

“What!?” I winced as Doc grabbed onto my arm. “What’re you saying, Bryant?”

Nikki and I stared at each other – he was still fucked up, but I could see the hatred and emotion coursing through his green eyes. “Nikki’s a grown man, Doc. A grown man that’s acting like a little bitch because of all the trauma that’s fucked up his life. He thinks that a needle filled with a feel-good drug is gonna help his pathetic ass – then let him think that. Who am I to say anything – It’s not like I wasn’t there when the real creative juices were flowing – when Motley was at the top of their game. Nikki’s choice is to be a junky – a fucking junky who’s never gonna reach the top – just the bottom of a 6-foot hole and his name added to the overdose roster..."

I parked behind one of the cars that was here earlier – quickly getting out and running towards the stairs. The door was still unlocked, and the house was still a disaster. I didn’t bother calling out of for him – choosing to run up the stairs and into the bedroom. It was a shock to see the once bright room was now painted a dark red – Tiffany lamps with scarves over them casted a low light across the room. The state of the room matched that of downstairs – the only difference being the random dime bags and needles scattered around. The TV that sat in the corner displayed a shattered screen – looking as if a bullet had gone right through it. Doc had mentioned that Nikki would hallucinate, the drugs telling him that his house was being invaded.

“Where are you?” I whispered as I moved towards the notorious closet.

This was his spot – his safe space to do dangerous things. I took a deep breath before slowly pushing the wooden door – the sight causing my stomach to drop. A collection of used syringes and a revolver laid on the burnt carpet. Bullet holes that matched the one that was put in his TV were displayed on the walls around the small area. This was the room that possessed Nikki – lured him in like a siren out in the ocean. The closet was like a mistress – their relationship buried behind the heavy cathedral doors.

“Nikki!”

 My head shot up at the sound of the shrill voice. The female’s heavy heels slapped against the marble floor as she continued to scream his name out. I removed myself from the closet, walking out of his room as I looked over the banister. She was petite blonde girl – late teens – possibly early 20s. Her clothing was typical of those that hung out on the strip – black leather, short skirts, and tits out for the world to see.

“Nikki, please baby –“She wined as she searched. “I need you right now, baby.”

“He’s not here.”  

She stopped dead in here tracks, her eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets. It was evident that she was one of his junky whores. She not only got to fuck around with Nikki – but she also got to indulge in the glamorous drugs that his fame brought in.  

Her face twisted into disgust, “Who the fuck are you?” Typical valley girl. “And how the fuck did you get in my boyfriend’s house?”

I couldn’t help but smirk as her feathers ruffled. It was cute that she thought Nikki cared about her. I pushed myself from the frame, slowly walking down the stairs. I kept my eyes on her as I took each step – her body twitching as the last of the drugs wore off.

My slightly taller frame stood over her, “I think the better questions is who are you?”

She shifted away – her mind trying to tell her to act normal but her body betraying her. “I’m Colette – Nikki’s girlfriend.” She spoke so surely. “Now – “ She cocked her hip to the side. “Tell me who the fuck you are and why are you in my fucking boyfriend’s house.”

I took a second, just looking at her and thinking what a shame it was that she was in the position she was in. Colette was a very pretty girl – probably came from a good family – actually graduated from high school and had a bright future ahead before she met Satan on the strip.

“How old are you?” I dodged her question.

She looked confused for a second, “19.”

Nikki – you fucking bastard.

“Why are you hanging around a 27-year-old man who’s addicted to ever drug known to man? You should be hanging out with your friends – going to college – not sleazing around on the strip looking for a fuck and a bump.”

“Nikki loves me-“

I let out a laugh, “You honestly think Nikki Sixx – big rockstar for Motley Crue – loves and cares about some little chick he met at a bar? Honey-“ I stepped closer. “The only thing that man loves right now is melted and injected into whatever vein he can find. You’re just a piece of ass to him – an easy fuck that he’s just gonna forget about when the drugs start to wear off. You and I both know you deserve way better than that – Don’t be one of those girls that are just hanging around and getting fucked up just to brag that you bagged Nikki Sixx.”

Maybe telling someone the cold truth wasn’t best when they’re coming down from drugs. Colette instantly broke down in tears – literally falling onto the floor as loud sobs left her body. I couldn’t help but just stand there for a second – to stunned to even do anything right away. I wasn’t expecting that kind of reaction – I was honestly waiting for her to start throwing punches or to cuss me out.

“Oh my God –“ I muttered as I pulled her off the floor. “I didn’t say those things to make you cry.” Mascara streaked down her face. “I was just trying to get you to understand that Nikki isn’t all he’s cracked up to be.” She was still crying – her eyes puffy and lipstick smeared as she wiped away the tears.

“Why do you even care?” Her voice cracking.

I took a deep breath, “ I was married to Nikki.” Her eyes connecting with mine. “We got together way before he formed Motley – back when things were less hazy. I was in your shoes at one point. I was that little girl that hung around the strip, and I let Nikki talk me into a lot of things that I should’ve never done, but he sucks you in with those green eyes and that smile.” Colette stayed silent as I spoke. “I guess what I’m trying to say is just stay away from Nikki or any guy with long hair on the strip for that matter. You’re too pretty to get strung out and have your life ruined by these guys.”

Just like a typical addict, her demeanor instantly changed and the girl that I first met reared back around. She pushed away from me, smoothing out her leather outfit as she rolled her eyes. “You’re a fucking liar.” She sniffed back the remaining tears. “You’re probably some psycho stalker that’s in love with Nikki and you’re just trying to push me away. I love Nikki and he loves me, and I won’t let you or anyone else for that matter get in my way, you stupid bitch!”

Before I had time to reply or react for that matter, her ring clad fist connected with my nose. Searing pain and the sound of bones crunching rang through my brain as I stumbled back. Not giving me the chance to recover, she lurched towards me once again, my red hair balled in her fist as she brought me to the ground. I’m usually scrappy, but the bitch was still high, making her have the strength that she typically would never have. If I didn’t think fast there was a chance that she could cause more damage or even kill me. Before she could send another blow to my face, I brought my knee up, practically stabbing it into her stomach, causing her to fall beside me on the ground. She moaned out in pain, giving me the chance to bring her equal payback...

I never liked fighting, but I could never stop once I started. I would go into another world – blacking everything out as my fist did the damage.

Colette was a bruised, bloody mess by the time Doc arrived, pulling me off her scrawny body. I didn’t even know it was him until his voice finally broke through the fog I was in. Pretty sure I hit him to as I flailed around as he tried to get me under control.

“God dammit, Bryant!” Doc yelled as he threw me onto the couch.

I heard another voice as I crashed back to reality – the site of jet-black hair kneeling beside Colette catching my eye. Nikki carefully picked up the young girl, carrying her bridal style up the staircase to his heroin den.

“She did a number on you, didn’t she?” Doc muttered as he started cleaning my face.

“Fuck you.” I spat as I stormed off the couch. My face was pounding – blood still falling onto my shirt as I walked out the front door. I knew my nose was broken – her rings wreaking havoc on my face with each punch but how fucking dare Nikki tend to her first! I could feel tears welling up as I paced the yard.

“Bryant, you need to get back in the house.” Doc spoke from the stairs.

“Fuck you!” I yelled. “Fuck you! Fuck Nikki! And fuck that stupid fucking cunt, Colette!”

Good thing Nikki didn’t have neighbors or else they would be getting a free show right now.

Doc trudged down the staircase, grabbing my arm off guard, dragging me back into the home Nikki and I once shared. “Sit your ass down.” He firmly placed me into the dining room chair, placing a rag full of ice on the bridge of my nose.

“Fuck me.” I winced as the weight and coldness of the ice balanced on my face.

Doc let out a sigh, “I was going to kick your ass myself for stealing my car, but I’ll give you a break this time.” I rolled my eyes. “Now, you gonna tell me what happened between you two?” 

I glanced up at him, “Isn’t it obvious.”

“It’s obvious you let her get the first punch in.” He smirked. “But I wanna know why it all started?”

“Well, he’s 6’1 and a fucking asshole.”

Doc looked towards the ceiling, “You’re fighting a fucking groupie over Nikki? I thought we got past that point back in 1982?”

“I told her that she doesn’t need to be hanging around a guy like Nikki. She’s too young to be strung out and hanging on the streets of Hollywood trying to get the attention of junky rockstars.”

“Brya-“The sounds of sires caught our attention as the cars pulled behind Nikki’s corvette. I walked closely behind Doc as he walked back to the front door, the officers halfway up the stairs. “Evening officers –“He was sweating. “What seems to be the problem?”

The officer looked over Doc’s shoulder, his eyes connecting with mine. “Got a call about an assault on a young woman.” He placed his hands on his belt. “Are you Bryant Mitchell?”

Doc spoke up first, “Listen officer, this is all just a misunderstanding.”

The officer wasn’t having it, “Doesn’t sound like a misunderstanding, sir.” His hands going for the handcuffs. “Now, are you Bryant Mitchell?”

He let her call the fucking cops on me. “Yes, sir.” My voice low.

The man nodded his head, pushing Doc out of the way as he reached moved behind me, grabbing onto my arms as he placed the cuffs around my wrists. “Bryant Mitchell, you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say could be used against you in the court of law…”

[tomorrowusa]

Nikki Haley intentionally contorts her positions in order to keep voters from knowing where she really stands.

Nobel economics laureate Paul Krugman in the New York Times had a good column about Haley this week.

So it seems worth looking at what Haley stands for. From a political point of view, one answer might be: nothing. A recent Times profile described her as having “an ability to calibrate her message to the moment.” A less euphemistic way to put this is that she seems willing to say whatever might work to her political advantage. “Flip-flopping” doesn’t really convey the sheer cynicism with which she has shifted her rhetoric and changed her positions on everything from abortion rights to immigration to whether it’s OK to try overturning a national election. And anyone hoping that she would govern as a moderate if she should somehow make it to the White House is surely delusional. Haley has never really shown a willingness to stand up to Republican extremists — and at this point the whole G.O.P. has been taken over by extremists.

We pointed out about 10 days ago that Haley is just as anti-abortion as the other GOP candidates. As president, she would appoint justices to the US Supreme Court just like the Republican justices who struck down Roe v. Wade.

She is consistently with the radical right when it comes to economics and income equality.

Haley has shown some consistency on issues of economic and fiscal policy. And what you should know is that her positions on these issues are pretty far to the right. In particular, she seems exceptionally explicit, even among would-be Republican nominees, in calling for an increase in the age at which Americans become eligible for Social Security — a bad idea that seems to be experiencing a revival.

Do you wish to end up having to support your parents because President Haley got a Republican Congress to raise the retirement age to 70?

Republicans say there's a funding gap when it comes to Social Security. But instead of raising the disproportionately low taxes paid by their billionaire donors, they want to slash benefits.

[T]he system would need additional revenue to continue paying scheduled benefits in full. But the extra revenue required would be smaller than you probably think. The most recent long-term projections from the Congressional Budget Office show Social Security outlays rising to 6.2 percent of gross domestic product in 2053 from 5.1 percent this year, not exactly an earth-shattering increase. [ ... ] Anyone who says, as Haley does, that the retirement age should rise in line with increasing life expectancy is being oblivious, perhaps willfully, to the grim inequality of modern America. Until Covid struck, average life expectancy at 65, the relevant number, was indeed rising. But these gains were concentrated among Americans with relatively high incomes. Less affluent Americans — those who depend most on Social Security — have seen little rise in life expectancy, and in some cases actual declines.

Not only would Haley not raise taxes on her billionaire buddies, she would cut them even further.

Haley, of course, wants to cut income taxes. My guess is that none of this will be relevant, that Trump will be the nominee. But if he stumbles, I would beg political reporters not to focus on Haley’s personal affect, which can seem moderate, but rather on her policies. On social issues and the fate of democracy, she appears to be a pure weather vane, turning with the political winds. On fiscal and economic policy, she’s a hard-right advocate of tax cuts for the rich and benefit cuts for the working class.

The libertarian extremist Koch network has endorsed Nikki Haley. That's further proof that she's no moderate.

Koch family-backed PAC endorses Nikki Haley for president

Nikki Haley, a onetime member of the Trump administration, is little more than a more socially acceptable version of Trump. That does not make her moderate. She is to the right of George W. Bush who appointed Samuel Alito, the architect of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision which killed Roe v. Wade, to the Supreme Court.

As Tara Setmayer indicated in that video, just saying that somebody is better than Trump is a very low bar. A snake could walk over that bar.

Don't confuse what Paul Krugman calls Nikki Haley's "personal effect" with her actual far right views. We're voting for a President, not Ms. Personality.

“Yep, that’s me, can I have the gift? Thank you,Nikki.”

Beatrice watched from the threshold with her smile only turning fonder, watching her husband and daughter sitting in front of their Christmas tree - Nicole was partially on his lap, partially trying to crawl on the floor but Rooster held her up by cupping her small torso in his huge hand - opening gifts together. The dogs were there too, enjoying their own gifts - thank God none of them got squeaky toys, because it’d drive them all insane - with Eleanor tossing her soft dinosaur in the air and grabbing it before it reached the floor.

She approaches the group, holding mugs in each of her hands, “Roos,” she begins, making her husband stop opening his own gift to look back at her. She slowly kneeled next to him, placing both mugs on the coffee table, “I made us hot cocoa.”

“Ohhh,Mr.Scoops?” she nods “Yesss.” he sets the gift aside to grab his mug and bring it to his lips. It was adorable how a chocolate mustache appeared on top of his actual mustache, he quickly licked it clean but he was so happy to have that.

And so was Nikki, because she looked up at him and tried to grab the colorful mug as her father drank the delicious warm mixture, “Hm.” he licks his lips, “Can we take some of the packets when we go to Virginia? There’s no Mr.Scoops there.”

“Well,I did buy a whole box for that reason.” she giggles when he leans closer to kiss her lips repeatedly, the taste of rich chocolate on her mouth only making her smile even more.

“God,I love you so much.” a few more kisses, “You just know how to win me over.”

“With chocolate? Yes.” she smiles, kissing him one last time before she drinks herself, chewing a soft marshmallow as Rooster sets his mug aside - it was now half full because he is a chocolate lover through and through - and turns his attention back to the half opened gift, “Do you want me to hold Nikki?”

Their daughter was so enthused on the colorful wrapping papers that she had nothing else in mind. Rooster adjusted Nicole on his hold before he shook his head, “Nah,I can open it one handed.” he proceeds to rip the beautiful package, smiling when Nicole wriggled when the paper moved as her father did so, “Plus,look at her, she’s having a lot of fun just by the wrapping…maybe that can be one of her future gifts.”

“Wrapping paper?”

“Yeah, but those fancy ones with gold and are scented like a plastic notebook from the 90s.” he chuckles, shaking the package free of what was left of the wrapping to reveal his first gift that morning, “I think your mother is trying to tell me I need more clothes.” he laughs, turning the box back and forth in his hold, showing the folded jacket inside, “But hey, this is so nice. And I love the colors.”

Beatrice smiles, grabbing it from him to look at it herself, “It’s not thick enough for you to use it in Virginia,though.”

“Ah, it’s okay,I can use it here. It’s not as cold around but it’s useful.”

She watches him rip every single one of his gifts: a new watch, cologne, he even got some new games for the PS4 - with the inclusion of Resident Evil 4, which immediately makes him beam up and tell Beatrice how he used to play that until late when he was younger, it was one of his favorite games of all time.

With him focused on his gifts, Beatrice took the time to let the thoughts wander. She had to admit that her aunt’s gift was still in her mind, the little talismans floated in her brain before she fell asleep…she could call her and ask about it, but she had a feeling her aunt would just give her another cryptic message instead of an actual answer.

Maybe she was overthinking things, because it was just a talisman for good luck, nothing more, and good luck was never turned away no matter what. Beatrice rubbed her forehead with her fingers before turning to face Rooster and Nicole again, her smile widening when she saw the two sharing this adorable moment.

She was so happy he could be home to spend time with Nicole. She was happy he was home and he was safe and she knew this wouldn’t last…because he was going to be deployed again, soon, and no matter how used she was to it, her heart still lurched with the absolute desire to have him close.

But she knew he’d be okay.

“This one is yours.” he smirks, offering a red package towards her. “From a ‘Bradley’,I think you know who that is.”

“I think I do.” she giggles, grabbing it and setting it on her lap. Both of them decided to buy each other’s gifts but they did that while apart, they both wanted that element of surprise, “Hmmm…” she shakes it a bit, furrowing her brows when it sounded heavy, “Interesting.”

“I think,” he begins, bringing his mug to his lips, “You’ll like it.”

“I know I will, rarely were the times when you couldn’t figure out what I liked,Roos.” he smiles proudly, muttering to himself that he ‘did his best.’

Beatrice pulled the golden ribbon before gently prying the paper apart - which he found absolutely adorable because she treated the paper as something just as precious as the contents it covered. Bradley watches, with his eyes locked on her face as she finally parts the paper open.

She blinks, then pulls it out of the paper before laughing softly, “Oh my God, Roos.”

“You like it?”

She holds up the tiny stuffed Predator with both hands, smiling back at him with her eyes soft, “...it looks like the ones from the theater,from our first date.” her husband bites the inside of his cheek, but it doesn’t stop the smirk that spread over his face because he’s just that proud.

She just looks down at it, then presses the back of it’s head, and the cute mandibles open to reveal a tinier mouth. It was just as adorable as her xenomorph one, “They don’t usually keep these, I mean, after it’s sold,it’s sold.”

“Yeah,well, took me a few calls,” he explains, “Then more calls, then a video call and I managed to get one. I mean,I remember you commenting you wanted to get the two of them but we never did because…of reasons.”

“Because we ended up making out in the park close by Mr.Scoops.”

“Yeah…I love that place.” 

His eyes glassed over and she laughed, placing the stuffed predator aside to turn her body towards him, leaning closer to kiss his cheek, “You are so sweet. Thank you,Roos. I didn’t think you’d remember.”

“Gorgeous,I don’t think I ever forget that night.” he says without missing a beat, “I still remember how you looked and the way you acted and how much I wanted to kiss you from the second I picked you up…but I’m a gentleman.” her amused ‘mhm��� went over his head, “And I was okay just holding you and looking at you…because holy shit, you are just so beautiful.”

“Roos.”

“And whenever you blush I just feel the same way as back then and…yeah.” he shrugs as if he just told her something casual, “You make me lose my mind in so many ways gorgeous.”

Beatrice’s cheeks once again turn red and she laughs, dropping her head to the side, thankful that his words were still as sincere as the very first time they spoke. They opened a few more gifts and then all of Nicole’s.

Their daughter was amazed more by the packaging than the toys, she loved squeezing and crumpling the paper because of the noise, shaking bundles of it in her hand as her parents placed everything aside, deciding to put it away later. Beatrice sighs, crossing her arms as she leans against the couch, lips pursed, “...you know I’m still thinking about my aunt’s gift.”

“You are?”

“Yeah,” she tsks, “I don’t know,Roos. Should I call her?”

Rooster adjusts Nicole in his hold, she was now playing with his fingers, “If you think it’ll help? Is that necessary though, gorgeous?”

“I don’t know, it’s just…my aunt knows things. As we both know, so…maybe I’m overreacting.”

“You can always call her with the excuse you are just wishing her a Merry Christmas.” he suggests and Beatrice has to bite her lower lip because she could see the glint of curiosity in her husband’s eyes, he too wanted to know more, “And go with that.”

She taps her finger on her arm, then looks down at her phone to check the time, “...it’s nine am. So…she’s awake.” she murmurs, already unlocking the screen and looking for her aunt’s contact, “It’s just to settle the curiosity down.”

“Yep.” he agrees with a nod, “Just because of that.”

Beatrice waits for her aunt to pick up, it takes a few seconds but once she does, she could hear birds chirping and Edith Piaf playing in the background, “Presioza! Buon Natale!”

“Buon Natale zia.” she smiles, “How’s your day going?”

“Very well, in fact I was just waiting for your call.”

Beatrice closes her eyes and her brow arches a millimeter, because of course she was. “Really?”

“I know you are curious about the gifts. I knew that while preparing it for you!”

“Yeah,well,I…I guess I am.”

Martha pauses on the other end and Beatrice was sure she was smiling, “Well,I couldn’t give it to you in front of your family. Your father would think it’s ludicrous and toss it aside no matter how he grew up with it…I just wanted to give you two my blessing, and Nonna’s blessing. You two will have a lot to deal with in the coming months.” she did not like how her aunt voiced that “I know you two will manage.”

“...what do you mean?”

“You know I cannot say what I don’t know.” Beatrice sighed, just like she thought, cryptic replies. “All I can say is what I feel. Your twins are safe with me, no one will know, just like no one knew about the little principessa…but to tell Bradley to keep the cornicello with him as often as he can. It’s important your talismans are together.”

“What-”

“Your gallo. Keep with yourself, not on a bracelet or anything if you don’t want to, but just keep it close,especially when you are apart.”

Maybe she shouldn’t have called. Because now she had more questions than answers, “I know you two will visit his parents this coming week, it’ll be good. They’ll be happy to meet Nicole.” she made a little sound that neared uncomfortable “...but it’s just for protection, darling. I just want you two to manage it.”

“...well, thank you zia.” she smiles, albeit confused, “I appreciate it nonetheless…for your….blessing.”

“You are welcome, dear. Have a wonderful day. All five of you.”

And she hangs up.

Leaving Beatrice just as confused as before, dropping her phone to her lap. Rooster furrowed his brows, flicking his gaze from the device towards her, “So?”

“I’m just as confused, if not more.”

“Really?”

“I mean, she just said we should keep those talismans close by whenever we…move? Or be apart from each other, it’ll protect us…that’s pretty much it.”

Rooster bounces Nicole on his arms, pursing his lips with a confused frown, “Alright,I can do that.” He knew she always felt self conscious, never ashamed, of her family’s weird ways but he found it amazing and incredibly amusing. He just chuckled while scooting closer to her, “Baby, it’s alright, at least we know it’s for good, nothing more,huh?”

“Yeah,I guess so.” she hums, propping her head on his shoulder and smiling down at Nicole who just stared up at them with those big light eyes,”...she said you parents will like to meet Nicole.” he immediately tensed up and his breathing hitched, she dared a quick look at him just in time to see him looking to the side. His parents were still a hard topic to talk about, even if he trusted her more than anything in this whole wide universe, he just…had a hard time saying it.

Beatrice knew this would be the second time they went to Virginia to visit his parents together and the first time they’d take Nicole…so she wondered if there was something in his mind that had to do with their baby daughter, “...Roos?”

“I’m just thinking.”

“About your parents.” she adds, “I know,I can see it in your face.”

“I guess it’s just the usual nerves I get before going to the cemetery. You know how I can get.” she did, she remembers he’d go quiet and just…not himself, but she understood, “And the fact we’ll take Nikki…” she waits for him to continue, “I want to take her but at the same time, isn’t she too young?”

“I think it’s important,Roos. Especially when she’s older.”

“...you are right, of course…you know I’m stalling,right?”

“I do.”

He laughs almost out of breath, furrowing his eyebrows, “...your aunt gave us those talismans for what reason,exactly? Protection?” 

“And apparently to give us a boost because, well,” she looks down at her stomach, “There are two of them in here.”

Rooster laughs softly, his eyes focusing on her stomach then back to her face, he leans closer to kiss her temple, keeping his lips there before he touches their foreheads together, “You know, I think that’s the best Christmas gift anyone could give me.” she smiles back, cheeks reddening again, “It’s crazy to think they’ll be born in a few months.And they’ll be here and we’ll hold something just as small like this one.”

“Aa!”

“Yes, you were small but not so much. You were the biggest kid in that hospital.”

Nicole gurgled happily, obviously knowing nothing of what her father was talking about but clearly happy because of the attention. Bradley kisses her head, that amount of hair was getting longer and longer every day and it was still the same shade as his, “...I just changed the subject,huh?”

“You did, but I didn’t want to bring it back if it made you upset.”

“Nah…I’m just…you know, it’s gotten better. It has, I’m just thinking too much about it, which I shouldn’t. Having you with me, having Nikki with us, will help a lot. It’s just a few days, hell, a week but it’s what we need. We are going to celebrate the New Years there…it’ll be fun.”

“I know. It will…and it’ll be far from everyone and from any noises. No fireworks which will help the dogs.”

“Yeah…” he trails off, eyes looking ahead, towards their Christmas tree. “...You know what I should do?” she hums in question “Show you a few of my favorite places from when I was a kid. We’ll have more time now after all,I think you’ll like it.”

“That sounds fun…I might show you more of mine too.”

“Deal.” he holds up his pinky, smirking when she hooks her smaller one around his, bringing her hand close to kiss her knuckles then the tip of her nose, “Now,I’m feeling like another mug of cocoa, how about you?”

“Good thinking,” she stands to her feet, “I’ll prepare…unless you want to join me?’

“I’d love to. Come on Nikki,” he stands up without supporting himself, too busy keeping Nicole against his chest, “We’ll teach you the wonders of hot cocoa, even though you can’t have it yet.”

Nicole Richie pop royalty pop culture royalty

As a story goes with Nicole Ritchie, when she was very young, she was on stage with Prince well backstage, concert with her parents at the time or one of her parents I don’t know there’s not too much written about her parents, especially the father, who is supposedly part of his part of his music the dad was part of music or part of the band, and was seen by Lionel Richie and his wife, Cherie, she wasn’t being attended or looked after very well and they had an agreement where they looked after her, because the parents couldn’t or didn’t take the responsibility with her, I’ve heard some people say that Lionel Richie is her father. He just got a groupie pregnant or something to that knowledge all that degree but in pop culture to me Nicole Richie is bigger or just as big as Paris and Lindsey., not literally because look at the size of her she say little and small, this is partly because she was being compared to Paris Hilton who is literally as fit as a stick and especially was even more so back learning the 2000, they came onto our screen in around 2004 roughly, where to rich girls from Beverly Hills different tasks in small towns and lived without as much money at all and had to work for things they weren’t allowed any credit card cards or shopping spree,

Anyway She was an adopted by Lionel Richie and his wife and they took her on full-time. They had a temporary adverse, but they wanted to be a stability in her life and she enjoyed being around them too ! Nicole always says what a good dad she has and how they’ve been looked after her and her younger sister always say how good Lionel always is dad so I think that says a lot because that is a lack of good father out there .

So Nicole Ritchie wasn’t the original choice with Paris Hilton to go on the simple life. It was either going to be Kimberley Stewart, maybe Keith and Kim Kardashian., maybe even her sister Nikki, but Nikki didn’t like the same like Paris does, a so then Nicole was a choice for the show and later seasons fingers grew as tensions between the two was thicker , anyway going back to the weight because it’s important she was constantly being compared to Hilton in interviews everything and I think this really struggled even though she didn’t ever met her or show any of her weaknesses , she was very confident but she had literally come out of rehab for heroin addiction and other addictions and her , gone up and she was a normal size slim girl , for us growing up in error like even looking back now myself I was fat I wasn’t fit but I wasn’t definitely wasn’t fat , we get compared to goes and we compare ourselves to girls in pictures or don’t wanna be photographed next to someone who likes a lot skinnier than us sometimes it can be triggering ,

After this simple life or jury, but definitely after she was friendly with the designer Rachel Zo , who made the whole bohemian look a massive thing in the mid to late 2000s and early 20 tens , everyone had this look at this time Vanessa Hudgens Selena Gomez but mainly it would be Nicole Ritchie and Rachel though and someone likes Sienna Miller it was so popular everyone had something in their closet that , Even if they weren’t heavily into that look was a part of it even if it was just a bag that had that feature to it or earrings but there was so many different skirts and dresses and jewellery lots of bangles, heavy bangles, wooden bangles, clothing and fashion revival .

The younger generation the younger generation don’t remember Nicole Richie as someone is pivotal because she wasn’t in the films like Lindsay Lohan and she wasn’t as prominent and out there maybe as Paris Hilton , was part of the holy Trinity of those free. Let’s chuck Britney Spears in there even though it doesn’t up.

[starry-eyed-extraterrestrial]

Thinking about my Mötley Crüe age swap AU right now so here are some rapidfire details about it.

• So in this universe Tommy, Nikki and Vince are the older members of the band and Mick is the youngest.

• Tommy never drops out of college in this au as there was no band stopping him from completing his education and he gets a job in the field he was studying in.

• He marries his highschool sweetheart at nineteen and they had two kids together.

•They moved into a house in Covina, barely a stones skip away from his own parents, and they live a pretty happy domestic life together for .

•That is until he finds his wife cheating on him and he falls into a literal pit of insanity.

• 'How could she do this to him, he gave her everything, he gave her his golden years and she just threw it away, just like that?'

• He nearly kills the guy his wife was with and he gets arrested for assault and is sent to prison for five days.

• Needless to say Tommy, now thirty, spirals completey out of control.

• He starts drinking during the day, he's late to work all of the time, his now ex wife has moved out and taken their kids with her and it's just a mess.

• And to top it all off Tommy looses his job for showing up to work drunk.

• Soon he can't afford the bills on the house so he decides to just pack up and move somewhere else completey, somewhere where he didn't know all the people and everybody knew him. He needed something new, something fresh.

• He decides to move to LA as he remembered always wanting to live there as kid as it was where all his favourite bands were from.

• it was such an impulsive decision that he really only realised he didn't have ....well a plan at all.(He basically just threw his drums in the back seat of his car and drove)

• So unemployed and unable to get a job because of his brand new criminal record he turns to a far more unsavory preoccupation

• Dealing

• Nothing huge, useally just weed or maybe a bit of cocaine.

• But after gaining a few regulars he's able to afford a shitty apartment (with a roommate)right across from the whiskey-a-go-go so he can go down to the club and catch a show or two.

• Imagine his suprise when his roommate just so happens to be one of his regulars.

• Nikki's backstory is pretty much the same to his backstory irl, except he ended up staying in London.

• They'd been together for almost a decade, so Nikki is also in his early thirties.

• They had made it so close to actual stardom that Nikki really thought that London would be the band that finally went the distance.

• They made an album that created some noise in the LA club scene, and they'd been approached by a label who wanted to sign them.

• The band took the deal ,after they booted him from the band and replaced him with someone else.

•They all decided that Nikki's habbits were too extreme to start a good career with and they were just generally sick of his terrible attitude.

• He got kicked, form the band that he founded!, He made those fuckers the stars that they are now and this was how they replayed him?! He'd even tried cutting down on everything he was on so he could be semi sober when he became rich and famous.

• Oh he'd show them, he'd have the last laugh someway, somehow...

• And it's just his luck that after being thrown out of the apartment he shared with his previous bandmates his new roommate just so happened to be a drummer.

• And his newest dealer, he really got a two for one deal!

• Tommy's a little hesitant to move in with Nikki at first, because one, the guy was one of his more "unstable" clients and was generally just super sketch as he seemed wayyyyy to eager to be Tommy's roommate.

• But seeing as Tommy didn't really have any options right now, he sucks it up and they start living together.Besides nothing bad has ever happened to people who lived with druggies.

• They end up connecting quite quickly after they actually settle in with each other and once they start talking about music everything falls into place.

• sidenote if you think that the Mötley apartment is cleaner then irl Mötley's apartment back in the day, your wrong it's still a pigsty, like these guys just don't know how to clean I'm sorry.

• They start playing with each other soon after their music discussion and their sounds blended together in perfect harmony.

•Nikki almost immediately starts pushing Tommy towards the idea of starting a band and with how drastically Tommy's life has changed within the span of a few months, he's just like "fuck it, let's do it"

• They'd come home from their shitty day jobs(Nikki selling lightbulbs and Tommy selling weed) and practice the songs that Nikki had written for them.

• While they were good on their own they still needed a guitarist and a singer.

• Tommy eventually stumbles upon an ad that seems right up their alley. "Loud, rude aggressive guitar player seeks band,call Mick" he shows it to Nikki who gives him the okay to call. He speaks to Mick very briefly to secure a time for them to meet up.

• There was also another guy named Robin that they'd met while hanging out at the whiskey who seemed interested in the idea of joining their band. So they scheduled for him to come over to practice at the same time Mick is coming.

• So this is where the story becomes more similar to the movie as the scene with the guitarists are almost the same, Robin is there before Mick and already in the process of of practicing with the band and Nikki is digging into him for not being to play his cords like he wants him to.

• "Come on dude, I've told you how to do play this like a million times!"

• Just before Nikki loses all patience and kicks Robin out, there's a knock on the door (their door hasn't been kicked in by cops just yet as mötley style parties still happen their just fewer and further between as their old men and their recovery time for a hang over or drug sickness is a lot longer.)

• To get away from Nikki's brewing freak out, he goes to answer the door and there he finds a little red haired teen, that looked like he weighed about 40 pounds wet.

• Tommy raises a brow in confusion, "You lost kid?"

• And this kid just looks at him very intensely, like one of those scary twins from the shining and goes "I'm Mick, I'm here about the guitarist position."

•This kid didn't exactly look like a rock and roller, he looked more like a wanna be country star but he let's him in anyway because he thinks this kids spooky vibe is funny and he thinks Nikki will dig it too (As he's a scary mother fucker himself)

• Nikki seems overjoyed for the distraction that Mick offers him from yelling at Robin but he's sceptical on wether he can play or not.

• "Do you even know how to play this instrument, little boy." Nikki says taking the piss with the kid because he's young and looks inexperienced and he needs a fresh outlet to take his annoyens out on.

• Mick took that as a challege and just to prove a point plays circles around both Robin and Nikki, a man whose a decade his senior and has years more worth of experience.

• Save to say that Nikki was suddenly not quite so cocky.

• Tommy is just in awe of this kids playing.

[hindisoup]

When you want to phonetically transcribe a name into devanagari (hindi) and it has a schwa at the end, that, in a Hindi word would be deleted, how do you write that?

For example the name Jette in German is pronounced /jætə/ or something close to it. If you wereto write as "यैत्त" it would be pronounced as /jæt/ (not sure if that's the correct vowel but it's not about the middle vowel soit doesn't really matter)

However यैत्ता and यैत्ते also don't truly represent the correct vowel.

Tldr: how do you undelet a /ə/ for phonetically transcribing names?

Phonetically transcribing European, American, or other names in Devanagari is interesting and challenging. My own name doesn't fit well in English-speaking or Hindi-speaking contexts, so I understand the struggle.

The best starting point is to use phonetic equivalents for consonants and vowels in Devanagari. Knowing how to pronounce a name is essential for accurate typing. This can be tricky if we've only seen the name written and never heard it spoken (like how I mistyped Lata Mangeshkar's name as लटा before learning लता means vine).

Let's look at transcribing foreign names focusing especially on the final vowels. Here are my observations from diving into Hindi Wikipedia:

Names ending in a

The final a-sound, even if short, is written as आ. Without it, the word would end in the consonant before the final 'a' and there's no mātrā (vowel diacritic) for अ.

Selena Gomez - सेलिना गोमेज़ Angelina Jolie - एंजेलिना जोली Barack Obama - बराक ओबामा Angela Merkel - एंजेला मर्केल Ursula von der Leyen - उर्सुला वॉन डेर लेयेन

A side note about the mid-vowels - the e-sound may be visible (as in एंजेलिना) or disappear (as in मर्केल there is only one visible e-sound). How to know? If it is a known name, try googling. With 'एंजेला मेर्केल' there are only 19 results in Google, and with 'एंजेला मर्केल' over 37 000).

Names ending in e

When the e is pronounced as [e], the name ends in ए.

Penélope Cruz - पेनेलोपे क्रूज़ René Descartes - रेने देकार्त Beyoncé Knowles - बियॉन्से नॉलेस

Here we can see how pronunciation is the key, Descartes follows the original French pronunciation [dekaʁt]. Knowles /noʊlz/ is written without the silent k - but the silent e remains visible for some reason probably only known to native Hindi speakers.

Where the e is silent at the end, leave it out.

Adele - अडेल Daniel Radcliffe - डैनियल रैड्क्लिफ़ Mike Pence - माइक पेन्स

Here ऐ is used to approximate the American pronunciation of a-sound in डैनियल - if it was a German name with 'a' pronounced like [a], it would be written as डनियल. Where does the e disappear? Don't ask me.

Where ie-combination is pronounced as [i], use ई.

Charlie Sheen - चार्ली शीन Sophie Turner - सोफ़ी टर्नर Kylie Minogue - काइली मिनोग

Which brings us to names ending in i

When the name ends in i or ey pronounced as [i], use ई.

Judi Dench - ज्यूडी डेंच Keira Knightley - किएरा नाइटली Nikki Haley - निक्की हेली

Finally, names endingin in o

When the name ends in [o], use ओ.

Orlando Bloom ऑरलैंडो ब्लूम Pablo Picasso पाब्लो पिकासो

पिकासो reflects the original Spanish pronunciation [ˈpa.β̞lo piˈka.so] with primary stress on the first syllable of Pablo and the middle syllable of Picasso indicated by the long आ-sound.

For names ending in -io, use इयो

Leonardo DiCaprio - लियोनार्डो डिकैप्रियो Silvio Berlusconi - सिल्वियो बर्लुस्कोनी Antonio Banderas - एंटोनियो बैंडेरास

On Antonio Banderas' Wikipedia page his name changes between the title and the first sentence. अंतोनियो बान्देरस is faithful to Spanish pronunciation, and एंटोनियो बैंडेराज़ to the American pronunciation. This shows that transcribing foreign names is an art, not a science. Devanagari is rich in sounds, but with foreign names, we can only aim to get as close as possible to the original pronunciation to ensure clarity.

Final notes on consonants

In these examples, we see that retroflex consonants (ट, ड) are commonly used for foreign names. That doesn't mean the names should be pronounced with an 'Indian accent'. Retroflex sounds are chosen because dental consonants (द, त) are pronounced with the tongue softly touching the teeth, which is rare in Germanic languages. Retroflex sounds are much more flexible and suit foreign names better most of the time.

Thank you for this ask!

HA but realistically knowing the game didn’t do so well (GAMERS HAVE SUCH BAD TASTE I HATE YOU ALL. MY VILLAIN ORIGIN STORY) means it’s not going to happen and it’s saddd!!!

but anyway!! having nikki gold as part of the lineup is such an incredibly unique and refreshing idea i hope she would stick around. and adam too obviously. mantis should be a main team member and go into more detail on the celestial madonna.

rich should be introduced!!!! he was referenced and the fact that peter dislikes him is very funny to me (just admit ur crush and GO) and you CAN’T tease rich and me to just forget.

nova having moondragon on file was exciting. i know some people think it’s redundant having mantis and moondragon around at the same time but having her be a kind of antagonist (not the main one!!! but go dragon of the moon it would be so unique!!) would be fun and then let her join the team at the end. just lean into the whole dragon thing!

other than that going more in detail on spartax would be good. peter’s heritage was a big gameplay element so i wouldn’t mind going into more detail on that story/character-wise.

story i have no idea. i have a feeling they were setting up something regarding thanos and the stones (drax IS an avatar of life in this version if i’m remembering correctly and he could sense thanos was not gone. the others put it down to trauma but he KNEW in his gut). that would be annoying to me if I didn’t think they would do a better job than the mcu. they absolutely would. that version was so bad sorry. and having a thanos story with the gotg as leads that actually does a good job with gamora (eidos gamora is FANTASTIC) and has adam around? chef’s kiss. god just make it a trilogy and have mr. T. Hanos be the grand finale and go full weirdness with the soul world and the stones <3

having the universal church of truth as the villains in the first game showed they weren’t afraid to go straight into just. idk. gotg bullshit so i would just be excited to see anything they came up with tbh.

also let me blast jack flag out an airlock again it’s so stupid god bless

catch up tag game

Thank you for the tag lovely @dharmasharks!

Last song I listened to:

Colind by Subcarpați & Surorile Osoianu. And then just 50 diff 80s pop songs before that, lol. It's been a weird day energy-wise. (she says for the 50th day in a row, as if this isn't the norm)

Last thing I read:

The Women and the Men by Nikki Giovanni, for the nth time.

Last movie I watched:

Alex Garland's Civil War. I just saw it at the cinema in IMAX the other day, and my knees are still a little weak.

Last TV show:

In terms of new stuff, Ripley. Loved the cinematography and the foreboding noir atmosphere, and Andrew Scott was excellent as always. I'm also rewatching NBC's Kings. (if you couldn't already tell by the wretched state of my blog in the last few days)

Last thing I googled:

"Dalmatian language last person to speak" because I was telling someone about how the language died out when the last living speaker was accidentally blown up and I couldn't remember the guy's name. What a way to be remembered, though.

Last thing I ate:

My grandmother's cheese and eggplant pie (and I want more)

Sweet, salty, or savory:

Ngl I kinda thought salty and savory were the same thing?? Or at least had some overlap. Anyway, one of those two. I'm not a big sweets person, but I looooove sodium.

Sleep:

We're in an on-again-off-again toxic relationship.

Currently reading:

Bc I have the attention span of a very small child or a very large dog, several things at once. Rereading Aleksandra Jovičić's Our Little Deaths, perusing B. Ruby Rich's New Queer Cinema and trying to continue In Memory of Memory by Maria Stepanova.

Tagging @vostok3-ka, @gyokujyn, @village-skeptic, @theairshiphangs, @between-a-ship-and-a-hard-place, @dontcallmebree aaaand anyone else who wants to join in! Lemme see those recs, folks. <3
