The pitch for Buffy The Vampire Slayer was probably just “What if there was a girl who could kill vampires. And she can Never Catch A Fucking Break”

friday afternoon hello operator excerpt from ch 14, feat. friday afternoon starbreaker massage time.

There’s a knock at his office door. Speak of the devil. Jace says “Yep” as loudly as he can (not very, right now) and puts his forehead down on his desk. Waits. The solid thuds of Porter’s boots as he enters the vice principal’s office make Jace’s already throbbing headache worse. He groans, pressing his forehead harder into the desk, and whimpers, pitifully, until Porter gets the hint. Jace hears him chuckle, and then there’s the heavy, warm weight of his massive hands on Jace’s shoulders, thumbs kneading into muscles Jace didn't even know he had. Jace makes an effort to speak without moving his face. “Y’re sooo good ‘t that. Why.” Porter laughs again, gives a gentle (for Porter, anyway) pinch to the nape of Jace’s neck. “Starshine, I’ve been dealing with your neurotic mess for years now. You think I don’t have tricks up my sleeves?” Jace lolls his head to the side a bit, sighing as Porter digs into a particularly hard knot. “Asshole. You and I both know your tricks are mostly in your pants. Where’d you actually learn this?” Porter hums, tips Jace’s head back to the other side with a swipe of his thumb. “A lady never tells.” Jace honest to god snorts at that. “I’d love to see you try to pull that on Zara. She– mm, right there, yeah– she’d flay you where you stood.” “Nah, she’d laugh. ‘S long as I promised her a massage, she’d probably let me at least sit down before she flayed me.” Jace huffs a laugh that turns into a groan. He’s rapidly becoming sorcerer soup on the vice principal’s desk, and he does not even care. It’s Friday afternoon.

after this mary ann tries to kill jace. if you even care <3

parks n rec 3x7 where jean goes to the harvest festival so he can see me (and annoy me) and whenever i'm not helping around we're off playing some of those carnival games and having competitions on who's better and going through that corn maze (i navigate through it pretty well while he's barely of any help and just watching me-) and going on the ferris wheel

[regicidal-defenestration]

Watching OFMD ep7 too busy pointing out how the first marine-accurate timepieces weren't invented until three years after the peak of Caribbean piracy at the earliest (even later if we count the H5 which actually won the prize for accurate timekeeping) to notice the drama
