Ikkaku Shipping Guide
Ok, here's my shipping guide for those who are interested in shipping with Ikkaku or simply curious about what I've spent the past 3 hours working on. I'll periodically reblog this but also attach it to my rules so it's easy to find.
Naturally, RP shipping here is MUTUALS ONLY. This means that while anyone can read this guide, only people who are following me and that I follow back may do any shipping with my Ikkaku. Self-shippers/self-insert RP blogs need not apply.
#Over the Intercom (PSA)#Engine’s Pulse (Ikkaku)#Wear My Heart on My Sleeve (Shipping)#How Stuff Works (Meta/Analysis)#(I might still add to this later but I felt this was a good general guideline for people)#(if there are any rules that don't make any sense or that you're confused about please feel free to message me)

psa for disabled people in the uk! you can just buy a radar key online without qualification! I had a medical emergency in a train station the other day and when I was trying to access a disabled toilet to change equipment it was locked and the intercom system didn't work. a person in a wheelchair and their partner came over and helped me by holding the door open for me and the partner told me I can just get a radar key online !! if you have an access need you can rectify yourself do it!!!!! I've always thought that if I applied for a key I'd probably get rejected but like. It was £6 to buy one on ebay without needing to apply for anything! I can access a disabled bathroom if I need to in an emergency! Of course the best place to change my medical equipment are those "changing places" bathrooms but not many places have them

Any form of personals with Role Playing on the side. Not respectively, fuck off. I will not be made to feel uncomfortable on my OWN blog. I will block any personals that follow me.
I am not here for you role-playing sexual fetishes for Jihl Nabaat. She is not that. She is a character in a game that had to push herself to prove herself to get where she is.

I binge-watched the spn anime because of the brain rot
It’s bad except for the parts that are good, and it’s pretty to look at. Here’s a comprehensive list of pros and cons. Spoilers ahead!
Pros:
- more psychic kid backstories: Max (Nightmare), Lily (Darkness Calling), Jake (Loser)
- more psychic Sam
- more Azazel
- basically if you want more about the psychic/demon kids, watch the anime
- more young Winchesters
- the monsters, the superhuman abilities, the fight scenes, it all looks really cool animated. (But PSA it’s violent. It doesn’t shy away from blood and gore.)
- Sam and Jessica backstory
- more of the brothers being cute and funny together
- Missouri isn’t forgotten
- includes some Japanese legends/mythology
- the impala looks great in every scene. They did Baby good
- the “Supernatural” intro title
- the outro sketches of the boys hanging out with Baby
- Episodes adapted from the original show are different, but I like some of the changes? It’d be boring if it was an exact retelling and the visual medium wasn’t utilized. (I know I said spoilers before, but this is when they get detailed. If you wanna skip over, I’ll tell you where they STOP.)
Nightmare goes more into the abuse Max has suffered. Instead of locking Sam in a closet, Max sends Sam through the floor and covers the hole by breaking his bed in half, and it’s extremely sexy how Sam shoves the 2 halves apart with his mind. Later on Dean puts bandaids on Sam and they talk about demons loudly in front of a fast food intercom.
In My Time of Dying highlights the guilt Sam feels over Dean. In both the og and the anime John verbally blames Sam for not shooting Azazel, but where in the og Sam goes right on arguing, in the anime he reels back for a moment like he was slapped. Dean’s spirit touches Sam’s shoulder, and Sam knows immediately that it’s Dean. He doesn’t even question it. Instead of “Are you here?” it’s “I know you’re with me. I can feel it.” And I love that. Dean figures out right away he’s dealing with a reaper, and the reaper takes on the appearance of Mary to convince Dean to move on to the afterlife. Instead of a Ouija board, Sam uses a laptop to talk to Dean, and the first word Dean types is “Sammy!” Dean is so fond of his little brother and Sam is so baby.
Rising Son is an anime only episode, but it draws inspiration from John’s journal. Dean has a proper breakdown over his dad’s death and the possibility of having to kill Sam. Ms. Lyle, Sam’s favorite teacher who turns out to be possessed, is explored. John takes Dean hunting, and in the journal Dean hesitates to shoot a buck, and little Sam shoots it thinking it was endangering Dean. In the anime, Dean’s cornered by a moose and Sam makes it explode with his mind and it’s so !!! How little Sam’s first words are, “I’m glad you’re okay. It didn’t hurt you?” The boys are covered in blood and guts and Dean’s like 👁👄👁 “Why are you here? Did you do this?” And then Sam starts freaking out a little, the shock sets in. “I don’t know. I don’t know, honest.” And he’s staring at his hands, and I am a big fan of Sam showing superhuman signs as a kid. Like in the journal, Ms. Lyle tries to take Sam. She gives Sam the illusion of a choice to come with her or stay with Dean, and Sam chooses Dean. This ep is pretty much when John figures out Sam has demon blood. He kills another hunter that wants to kill Sam.
Crossroad is based on Crossroad Blues, and I love how the crossroads demon shows up. It’s hard to describe, but it’s so neat, like she’s walking underneath Dean in this mirror world, and then the mirror world takes over the regular world, so you really get this sense of otherworldly seclusion, existing outside of time.
What Is and Should Never Be shows Dean is a firefighter in his ‘Mary never died’ world, and Sam got to play soccer growing up like he wanted. The brothers hold each other after Dean is saved from the Djinn.
AHBL part 1. When Azazel shows Sam that he fed Sam his blood, Sam gags and slaps a hand over his mouth, and I like that reaction more than the live action. The psychic kids get to go more anime with their powers, and that’s a lot of fun. They don’t need weapons. Ava slams Sam into the brick side of a building and cuts him without touching him. Jake snaps Ava’s neck with one hand and then catches Sam in his arms. When Jake attacks Sam, there’s no gun or knife. He’s relying on his super strength, his fists. Sam throws his arms up to protect himself, and (accidentally?) pushes Jake back with his mind, and the collision creates a crater in the ground. Jake puts his fist through Sam’s chest to kill him. It’s brutal and it’s rad as fuck. These kids are terrifyingly powerful.
The Sam and Dean reunion before Sam is killed is not as emotional as the live action imo, but what the anime does intrigues me. Hurts in a different way. Because Sam is stunned after he uses telekinesis again, on Jake, and when he hears Dean behind him Sam freezes. He doesn’t look relieved to see Dean, but wary and weary. It’s Dean taking steps towards him, not the other way around, and it has to be because Sam doesn’t know if Dean saw him push Jake back. Sam doesn’t know how Dean’s going to respond to all this, to him, having powers that come from a demon, the demon, Azazel. Sam hasn’t had a chance to process anything. He’s scared. He’s tired. And the way the anime focuses on Sam’s eyes here. Gah. “Dean. Dean, I’m...” I’m sorry. I’m all right. I’m glad you’re okay. I’m a monster. There’s also this one shot between Sam and Azazel that sends me because of how anime it is.
AHBL part 2. I love how Sam brought back to life is animated, with all the color returning to his face and a light wind rustling his hair and his lips parting to indicate his soul returning to his body. Jake attacks Dean, and, a lot like how Sam activates telekinesis to save Dean from Max in Nightmare, Sam gets a burst of superhuman strength. He rips Jake’s arm off and tackles him to the ground and beats him to death, punches holes into his body, and it’s so savage and bloody and scary, and I love it. The Devil’s Gate opening looks so cool animated. Same goes for Dean shooting Azazel with the Colt.
Not to turn this into a meta post, but I also noticed how the last couple times Sam uses his powers they’re colored green-yellow, the same colors as Mary’s ghost when she reveals herself in the anime’s Home, and I don’t know if that’s intentional, but it’s neat how it draws a connection to Sam’s biological family instead of Azazel’s blood.
The Spirit of Vegas is like Bad Day at Black Rock, but Dean has all the bad luck instead, and it shows off the silly cartoony physics that make animation fun. The boys sleep outside and split a chunk of bread for dinner. Also this lil bit of Dean’s hair tied in a bow.
- (STOP) the brothers are pretty. I am not immune to animated Sam and Dean Winchester.
Cons:
- Jensen doesn’t voice Dean until the last 2 episodes
- The English dialogue is really bad sometimes. I wish I could’ve watched the sub, but I couldn’t figure out how to change the language
- Some character designs are really different from the live action, and maybe that’s petty, but if you’re gonna change the characters diversify them? Don’t just make them unrecognizable white people
- Missouri’s design as a stereotypical witch doctor is racist
- Gordon is replaced by some British guy named Jason?? Why
- There’s an LGBT character who is not accepted by her family and, while that bigotry is always shown to be negative and she dies the hero of the episode, she still dies ://
- In the English dub Lily’s gf is made into her roommate instead. Idk about the sub
- Bobby’s pretty much a totally different character
- Sam and Dean are OOC sometimes
- Dean’s hair usually looks darker than Sam’s and it drives me crazy
- The storytelling is, overall, not nearly as good as the live action
- The non-Japanese lore in some episodes makes no sense. Sometimes it’s just plain ridiculous?? Like there’s a giant robot made of cars and scrap metal controlled by a demon? ? I wish I was making this up
- Meg’s role is severely reduced
- No Harvelles or Roadhouse
- Shadows are overused, but maybe that’s because the og show is so dark?
- I don’t mind the art style. I like the aesthetic, but I wish it was a little more expressive. It doesn’t do Sam’s puppy eyes justice.
- AZAZEL’S SHADOW?? PROPORTIONS?? PEA SIZED HEAD
- Idk why they mashed season 1 and 2 together? The story feels rushed
- there’s not as much chemistry between Sam and Dean, but that’s a given without J2 on screen
- Nobody tells you!! That there’s scenes after the credits!! And some of them are important! Why are important scenes after the credits??
The anime would not be good on its own, without the heart and depth the live action brings, but it works as supplementary material you can cherry pick from. I would watch more if there were more episodes.
It hasn’t turned me off from wanting an spn anime. I’d like to see it continued or redone, with updated animation and better scripts. There’s a lot of potential in exploring more about the psychic kids and Sam’s powers, storylines that were cut short in the og show. Animation is a great medium for showing off the supernatural, getting creative and creepier with the designs, dramatic with the fight scenes, without having to worry about bad CGI. I don’t want a live action reboot, but I think a redone animated series could be a lot of fun! (As long as it’s not an excuse to make any romantic ships take over. SPN is a platonic love story, and I like it that way.)
If you made it to the end here and are interested in watching the spn anime, you can watch it for free on the CW Seed app! You can probably stream it elsewhere, but idk where!
#spn anime#supernatural#supernatural the anime#my detailed pros is pretty much me letting you know what episodes are worth watching#and why#its bad but I kind of like it#I like what they were going for. the potential it has#I like sam and there's lots of sam

PSA:
For the sake of everyone's ears and sanity, if you are sitting in the drive thru next to the intercom, don't turn your car off unless your car is so loud that you and the person on the other side can't hear each other. Because when you start your engine again, for everyone with a headset (or in the godforsaken locations where the intercom is also piped through a loudspeaker in the kitchen), the sound is something like having a nuke go off directly inside your ear.
And if a train is going by and blowing its horn, please just shut up and let it go before trying to order over it. I guarantee you, you will not be heard over the

**I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I think I know why writing has been so finicky for me lately. I’m just not giving myself enough introvert time, I’m not giving myself enough time to pull back away from everything and do other stuff in silence for even just a little while. Chatting has taken up and divided my attention a lot and honestly i’ve never chatted with so many people on tumblr before, let alone the amount i have just in the past month or so.
So I’m taking a bit of a social break.
I’ll still be on the blog, I still love you all and this is nothing against anyone or anything like that, and I’ll try my best to write; but I honest to god think I just need some introvert time so I can gather myself and my energy again. Doesn’t mean i won’t reply to posts once and awhile, but for the most part I’m stepping back and going to try to focus on the blog itself and see if that helps me.**
#**Dunno when it'll be over but pff not gonna last forever obviously**#( ooc * Out of Chances )#( Intercom Announcement * PSA/UPDATE )#**again nothing against anyone or anything! No ones done anything wrong; im just a smol introvert whose been getting overwhelmed lately**

PSA's I would make if I had control of the intercom at supermarkets, or Why I should not be given a bullhorn
The chances of someone wanting to come OUT of the elevator is high, stand to the side and let them out.
Bottles placed perpendicular to the conveyor belt WILL ROLL! Place them parallel.
Tall bottles placed upright on the conveyor belt will fall over.
KEEP LEFT PASS RIGHT!
This is not a competition to win your groceries, nor will someone steal your shopping cart. It is ok to let go of it while reaching across the aisle to get something.
If you need to stop, PULL OVER TO THE SIDE.
If you need to stop and someone is stopped next to you, think, are you blocking the aisle? if so, MOVE!
You really do not need to stand on opposite sides of the aisle to have a conversation
Return your shopping cart!
If the trash can is full, DO NOT leave your trash on top or to the side and hope for the best.
WE ARE IN A GLOBAL PANDEMIC! DO NOT SPIT, ANYWHERE!

Don’t Get Caught//four/billy!ben hardy x female reader
Prompt List!!!
Based on prompt #23 “It wasn’t me!” “He/she did it!” “No, you did it!” “Stop saying everything I say!” “Fine!” “Fine!” “You know what, fuck you!” “Gladly.” “What?” (Yeah I get it, it’s a long one. Deal with it.”
Summary: You’re the new recruit, 8. (reader and four basically have the same position on the team). It’s been about three months since you joined, you and four have had a thing for about a month and try to keep it on the down low, until you get caught.
Warnings: mentions of smut, flirting, a bit of fluff
(psa: the keep on reading thing isn’t working, sorry it’s long)
——————————————————————
Today was just like any other mission you’ve been on. You know, secretly racing atop of buildings in plain sight, shooting a few bad guys occasionally, screaming at each other over the ear peice about where to eat dinner later, a few sarcastic, and sometimes flirtatious remarks from Four.
Here’s the thing. The two of you have always had this sort of playful, sarcastic flirty relationship. But ever since the one night you two drunkenly made out, he takes any chance he can to touch you or kiss you or get to you in any way possible. He seemed to be the only person that was able to get the best of you, and completely break through this intimidating persona you give off to everyone you meet. Not going to lie, he feels that same way with you. That feeling like you are the only person to show his soft side, a side to him he tries not to show. You know, to seem tough and all manly like the sexy man he is.
“Eight! A we need you on the down low!”
As you ran from building to building, closer to the cathedral, One spoke over the intercom, again, “Hey Eight, did you hear that? We’re kind of dying down here. So if you don’t mind, I don’t know, getting your ass down here to save ours, that would be great!@
You stopped on the nearest roof, seeing One, Two, and Three fighting off all the bad guys. They didn’t seem to be having trouble. Two was nearly finished, fighting anyoje in her way and shooting two guys with one bullet. Impressive. Three was doing the same, looks like One was the only person down there having some trouble. Typical.
“You know One, if you just needed help kicking the smaller guys asses off of yours, you could have just asked,” you joke back, shooting a rope gun to the building across, and swinging down into action.
A bad guy then quickly flipped One down on the ground, pinning him down with his arm over his throat.
“Ahh ha ha, very funny” his strained voice managed to get out as he was slowly being choked. You ran over and kicked the guy who was on top of him, jumping up to wrap your legs around his neck and flip him over on his back. He slammed into the ground with a hard cough.
You then grabbed his arms securely as you squeezed your legs hard enough until he fell unconscious. Getting up, you heard Two shoot him, just to be safe, and you did the same with the other two guys that One couldn’t fight off. You then jumped up, a bit out of breath, then gave everyone a quick wave goodbye to continue chasing the guy you were supposed to catch earlier.
Now that you were back running across the roofs of buildings, you heard a bit of chuckling in your ear, “Damn One did you really just need a girl to save your ass again?” Four asked. This time everyone laughed, except One.
“Oh I’m sorry, did my lack of strength distract you?!? Get back to work, ALL of you....and yes Four, yes I did. Which means *throws punch at bad guy, mini fist bump in the air as he knocks him down* you will be buying dinner for us all tonight.”
You rolled your eyes at the children you worked with, “Alright boys, thats enough. We’re almost done. Four, I’m coming up soon with a runner on our hands, where are you?” You asked, signaling to the guy you were chasing and struggling to catch.
Four was still laughing a bit at the disagreement, but nonetheless calmed down to answer you. “I’m literally right here Eight. Right in front of you.” He replied back.
You were still running, keeping an eye on the guy one building ahead, running away from you.
“Four this isn’t funny, seriously where ar—,” and all of a sudden, the guy was shot right in front of you and fell right off the closest roof.
You froze in your tracks and look up to see Four across from you on the cathedral with a gun in his hand.
“I’m here!” He confirmed.
You held in a smirk and ran over to reach him. Once you reached it, he jumped down from the railing to face you, also with a stupid little shit looking smirk on his face
“Hey! You shot my guy!” You say, taking a step closer, trying to hold in your tough demeanor, even though you were totally fine with what he did.
“You clearly weren’t going to anytime soon,” he protested back, stepping even closer.
“I totally had him if you would have just waited a second longer,” you say, poking his chest and staring right up into his eyes, the tension growing.
He then took a step even closer now, both of your faces inches apart, tenion so thick you could cut it with a knife. His hand came up to press a button on both of your ear pieces, so he could mute your ends from the others. Didn’t want them to listen in.
“After all this time I figured you would have realized that I don’t like waiting,” Four said.
He bites his lip, looking down at yours for a second only to lock his eyes back on yours, not wanting to break the flirty, saracastic tension.
“Hmm I guess I haven’t. Care to show me how?” You said all flirtatiously smirking up at him with that seductive look in your eyes.
Within an instant, Four pushes his lips onto yours with a slow, deep, passionate kiss. His one hand comes up to cup your jaw, brining you closer while his other arm tightly wraps around your waist, fully pushing your bodies together. You began to deepen the kiss, about to wrap your arms around his neck and bring him close, but broke the kiss tilting your head back as you remembered something.
“What? What is it?! Shit! Is it my breath?” He asked all panicked.
“No no no! Four, we can’t get caught. They’ll see us.” You laughed in response.
“Oh thank god,” Four sighed in relief, “You know I had a sandwich just before wit—“.
You pressed your lips against his in a quick kiss to stop his bickering.
“That’s great Four, it really is.” You chuckled against his lips and he smirked against yours. “Can we maybe move this, in there?” You nodded your head back, signaling to stand under the roof of the building, so that way you were more hidden.
“Are you always so controlling?” He teased.
“Would you shut up”. You reply, smirking in return.
He kissed you again, this time a bit softer but still deep. Both of his hands snacked down to your ass, giving it a quick squeeze signaling for you to jump up. As you did, he nearly raced the two of you under the roof, In a more secluded section of the holy structure.
You tightly wrapped your legs around his waist, pushing his hips further into you. You could feel him getting hard already. He deepened the kiss, and swiped his tongue over your bottom lip, asking for entrance. Opening your mouth, you let his tongue dominate yours and explore your mouth. The two of your lips were moving in sync, while your hands tangled themselves in his hair, and his roamed all up and down your body. This man was never able to get enough of you.
Four started to move down your neck, leaving hot, open mouthed kisses everywhere. Bitting and sucking right beneath your ear. This really got you going. His member was growing harder and you could feel it, and the tension between your legs was in desperate need of friction. As he continued to suck on you neck, you let out a slight moan of pleasure, which made him even hungrier.
Little did either of you know that the team had finished up, and was about to be coming up the stairs from behind you. Four had you literally sandwiched between the wall and his body while you sucked each other’s faces off. Oh boy, this steamy situation was not about to go down well no sir!
You wanted to make him also feel good, and slid one of your hands down right over his bludge as you—
“Alright! Which one of you little shits turned off your ear—“
Four put you down quickly at the sound of One coming up, and leaped to the other side of the room within a second as he turned to fix his situation. You quickly brushed over your body suit, making sure everything was in place, before you turned around with the fakest smile you could muster.
One froze once he reached the top step, “Well well well, what the fuck his happening up here?”
Three was at the very bottom and yelled up “What happened papi? Did she strip?”
“What?!” Everyone asked in unison.
“Three��� I —no. Who turned off your ends? Communication is kind of important.”
Four turned around to quickly come to your side. You thought he would help save your ass in this situation, but nope. He still had to mess with you to get you in trouble.
“It wasn’t me!” He raised his hand, as One directed his focus to you.
You gasped in shock. “He did it!”
“She did!” Four now also turned to you.
“No, you did!” He said with you at the same time. You could tell he was doing this on purpose to annoy you, and it was working.
“Stop it!” Same time again.
“Stop saying everything I say!” And again.
One jumped in. “For the love of god will you two cut it out!”
“Fine!” You crossed your arms, still locking angered eyes up at Four.
“Fine!” He agreed back. Smirking down at you.
“Just turn your fucking intercoms back on so we can leave already. We are all fucking hungry, let go.” One suggests, as everyone turns around to walk back down the staires.
You and Four waited for a second, and were the last ones to follow the team down.
“You know what? Fuck you.” You pointed to him about to walk down as he followed behind you.
“Gladly.”
You froze on the first step and turned around.
“What?” You asked, seeing the smirk on his face.
He smiled and laughed, “just go follow them, we’ll worry about plans after dinner in a bit.”

[drabbles below the line]

NOTE: If you are a competitor, you CANNOT vote for your own fic. But please, do vote. :)
The voting period ends at 11:59 PM EST on Sunday night. Results will be posted and anonymous feedback will be emailed on Monday.
#1
Title: 100 Seconds Author: sorion Warnings: implied canon-typical violence Summary: Seconds counting down to words that count.
"One hundred seconds, 007," Q says.
Bond knows. His reliable inner countdown always lets him know how close death is. Eighty seconds until he has to be off the empty German plane.
Sixty-eight seconds to not only outwit his personal death, but the death of everyone the crashing plane will kill in London.
Forty-seven to break the auto pilot, divert destiny from its path and the plane into the channel.
Thirty to grab a parachute, listen to the increasingly panicky voice in his ear.
"James! Fifteen seconds!"
Thirteen seconds for a jump and three words.
"I'm coming home."
Two.
One.
#2
Title: Delayed Author: Ksania/Starrboned Warnings: None Summary: It wasn't flying that scared Q the most.
The stuttering departure board snaps into place, merciless and cold.
Delayed.
Impatient, Q taps his fingers against his thigh.
It wasn't flying that scared Q. He knew better than most how safe planes were, the intricate mechanisms that kept them afloat.
They didn't always land; Q waits for the inevitable to happen.
His eyes blink with the board: one, two, ten thousand - the seconds melt into months. Q stands still while the airport is buzzing around him.
"Q?" James's voice cuts like lightning through fog. "Have you been waiting for long?"
Q shakes his head, smiling thinly.
"Not at all."
#3
Title: Flight Plan Author: Anyawen Warnings: None Summary: A chance sighting requires changes on the fly.
Be a dear and change my flight, won't you?
You'll survive 3 hours in economy class.
FIN2424 to Valencia. Leaves in 35 min.
I'm not a bloody travel agent. Book your own holiday.
I had been hoping to get back to London. Spend some time spoiling your cats. And you. Unfortunately ... <image0805202013.jpg>
… That's Nīkau Tama.
Indeed. They're announcing last call for boarding.
Keep your pants on.
Where's the fun in that?
Ticket confirmation is in your email.
Thank you, darling.
Just catch the bastard and come home, then you can thank me properly.
I prefer 'improperly'.
...
So do I.
#4
Title: Seatmates Author: IrishWitch58 Warnings: None Summary: Departure lounges are lonely, until they're not.
Airport departure boards were depressing if you rarely had the chance to decide your destination yourself. Bond watched the crowds as he waited for his flight to be posted. He was supposed to be accompanied by a Q branch expert but they were late. He'd kissed Q goodbye early this morning, holding him close in the grey dawn light. Saying goodbye was getting harder lately. Someone moved up next to him and he blinked. “Q? But you hate flying.”
“Overstated,” Q responded succinctly. “Valencia is warmer than London and I hate cold worse. There are perks. We're going first class.”
#5
Title: Boarding Author: SouffleGirl91 Warnings: None Summary: He waits to board the plane.
“Flight BA25007 to Kingston is now boarding.”
Heaving a sigh, he stood, clutching his ticket. Was he really doing this? Boarding a plane to Jamaica on the trail of a washed-up double-oh, just to tell him- no. No thinking about that right now. That could wait. It was a long flight. Plenty of time to decide how to tell him.
Shuffling into line, he fingered his passport. He missed having the power to skip the rigmarole and just board. But this wasn’t a sanctioned mission.
The new Quartermaster had better things to do.
This was personal. Bond had to know.
#6
Title: Homeward Bound Author: Iambid/Flantastic Warnings: None Summary: It’s late, Q’s tired and James’s flight is due.
Heathrow is deserted.
Q is alone in the waiting area except for a lone family, waiting for a loved one. He’s waiting for James. He’s not sure if James ever thought of him as a loved one, not since Madeleine…
The arrivals board clatters, the quaintly old-fashioned sound waking him from his doze. He’s so tired, should have been in bed hours ago, but James asked him to be there and even after everything, he can’t say no to him.
He thinks to himself that maybe James is the loved one as he stands stiffly and waits for his agent.
#7
Title: Vision Author: sunaddicted Warnings: none Summary: some dreams are bound to never become real
"I had a dream" Raoul stretched amidst the rumpled sheets, reaching out to land a hand on James' belly "A nice one?" "I was at an airport" "Why?" "Leaving" "For?" "I'm not sure, the flight details kept blurring and changing on the board" James looked down at Raoul, as if the key to his dream lay amidst those distorted features "I was leaving London. Permanently. It felt better than I always thought it would" shame burned on his tongue. Raoul hummed, thumb tracing the pucker of a scar "It was just a dream" and like one, they had no future.
#8
Title: Fight and Flight Author: stormofsharpthings Warnings: no Archive warnings apply Summary: All the comforts of the first-class lounge
It hadn’t been his finest moment, Bond admitted as he prowled through BritishAir’s first-class lounge. He’d had a monumentally stupid fight with Q and stormed out, demanding to take the next mission available.
The departure board flickered. His flight was delayed again and Bond groaned — more hours of inaction to brood over his poor behaviour.
He paced until the board flickered again, showing a further delay, and he slumped, defeated.
After a while, he rubbed his face and looked up glumly.
COME HOME, it flickered.
Bond sighed, a rueful smile emerging, wondering if make up sex was an option.
#9
Title: Time and Place Author: Venstar Warnings: none Summary: Travel
It was a simple process. Approach the board and wait.
“Time Agent 007.”
The only acknowledgment of his name spoken softly through his earpiece was the slight turn of his head.
“Your countdown. 5,4,3,2,1…” The voice trailed off as the board flickered before 007’s eyes divulging his next destination. “You will have seventy-two hours to complete your mission. Good luck in 2424.”
“And when I’m done? How about dinner, Q?”
If a snort could sound posh, leave it to Q to figure that trick out.
Q countered his offer. “How about you return my equipment in one piece?”
“With pleasure.”

Title: The Destination Board Author: ladymars Warnings: No Warnings Apply (Canon Character Death?) Summary: M remains vigilant, even after everything.
She finds the oddest device when she first arrives. A departure board flickering with the destinations of the colleagues she had left behind. M does remember that 008 was to be deployed to Havana and that R had a conference at Frankfurt. Her new friends here tell her there's much more to explore and enjoy, now that she has time to repose, but she decides to linger. No rest for the wicked, of course. She catches an expected arrival at Altaussee, Austria followed by an unexpected one. Huh. She should have suspected he would have boarded a plane for him.

Title: Trinity Author: sparklycitrus Warnings: None Summary: An unholy alliance.
When the airport bulletins all over Europe began to glitch, Q was at home, packing. He’d already given away his cats, and the only things he was taking consisted of a single suitcase and his laptop. The train ticket Bond had sourced him sat securely in his pocket. He was cutting it a bit close, but there should still be time left before everything crashed. Literally.
In a remote part of Russia, Raoul Silva turned from the camera feeds to the man next to him. “Clever boy,” he commented, to which Bond merely smiled, as they watched the chaos unfold.

Title: Buggering Off Author: AtoTheBean Warnings: None Summary: He shouldn’t hope...
JB: Where are you? Oh, for fuck’s sake. NLQ: How did you get this number? JB: That doesn’t answer my question, Q. NLQ: No longer Q, actually. You’re not the only one who gets to retire and bugger off. JB: I came back. NLQ: Then you can carry on destroying someone else’s tech. JB: ... JB: Please. I need to talk with you. Just give me a hint. He shouldn’t hope… shouldn’t invite this man into his fresh start. His thumb hovers above the screen. He snaps a picture of the split-flap departures board, hits “send,” and runs for the gate.

Title: (dis)quiet Author: azure3795 Warnings: none Summary: Waiting for an arrival.
Slots on the display board are flipping, a monotonous voice from the PSA intercom ever drowned out by the bustling of people arriving and departing drones on, and he waits.
He cradles a travel cup in his hands, the half drained beverage inside long since gone cold and sloshes around with dead weight. Logically, he knows it no longer provides the spot of warmth he seeks.
No matter.
“Q?”
He nearly jumps, but uses the momentum to plaster on a smile that doesn’t resemble a grimace. Good enough.
“Bond,” Q greets and thinks not of the Walther in his bag.
#14
Title: A Grand Romantic Gesture Author: scarytheory Warnings: none Summary: Q is waiting for his flight to Berlin.
He was drinking his second coffee when Bond came.
“What are you doing here? Don't tell me you're trying to stop me in some grand romantic gesture?” he was joking, but his smile faded when he saw Bond's reaction.
“Oh, God. You are, aren't you?”
Bond sighed: “I'm bad at this. I should have prepared a speech. Or should I sing?”
“Please don't.”
“Just… Can you please stay? For me.”
For a moment Q wished he could do that. But nothing would change, he knew that, and deep down, even Bond knew it.
“Goodbye, James.”
The plane was leaving soon.

Ok, just a note to people in regards to Ikkaku and her grandfather, Tomasu AKA "Ghostlight":
I know I work his lore into a bunch of stuff. I imagine his heyday was during the Golden Age of Piracy and even before that. In my canon, he knew the Whitebeard Pirates, Roger Pirates, Rocks Pirates, and others that were active during that time. As a smuggler, he did a lot of jobs for and with them that were mostly illegal, and despite himself he developed some close bonds with them.
HOWEVER I know OCs aren't everyone's cup of tea, and I 100% don't want to force my muse into your lore. That's honestly a big reason WHY I wrote him as not being especially well-known. He's easy to ignore and his existence doesn't cause massive plot holes. He's important to Ikkaku, but he's not that important to the overall OP storyline unless people want him to be.
So what I'm saying is I won't ever force your muses to know him or even know of him. He's a totally optional NPC. Ikkaku might know of older muses through Tomasu's stories, but I never expect your muse to go "Ah, yes, I've heard of the Ghostlight." If you WANT to I'll be over the moon about it, but I won't ever be mad about someone not wanting their muse to have known a turtle-riding smuggler with a silver axe.
#How Stuff Works (Meta/Analysis)#Over the Intercom (PSA)#Ghostlight Grandfather (Tomasu)#(I always worry about saying “my old man OC would have known your muse” and the like)#(Tomasu is happy to be obscure and forgotten by the world and not cause plot holes)#(but if you want your muse to have known him or know about him hit me up)

So I work at a grocery store. So while everyone is staying home during this corona pandemic, I have to be work. Anyway, at the store we have this PSA that plays over the intercom every half hour or so and one of the things that it says is to 'take only what you need,' and everytime I hear it the same thing runs through my head. So I decided to make it a GIF set.
PS: I know I'm a little late to this party, but this took a little longer than I expected :/

Just a little PSA
So, I was at the store today and it comes over the intercom that there was a Code Adam, meaning there was a missing child. All the workers started racing around trying to find this little 11 year old girl. They found her thank God, but my point for saying this is that if you have a kid, know someone that has kid(s), or have any younger siblings, PLEASE keep them close to you, hold their hand have them hang onto the cart, or remember to keep checking in on them, make sure they are within eyesight. Where I live there has been a lot of cases of sex trafficking and its hard to even fathom that there are sick f*ckers out there that would look at a child that way. I know it should be common sense to keep your child in eyesight, but I didn’t even know the kid and this was scary as hell.

My brother’s students really started a rally/protest over a student’s missing tape, which they believed a different class had taken.
They made signs and everything. And the student even went to the principal’s office to report it, and the principal went on the intercom and said “We have a PSA:...” and described how the tape looked like.
This protest lasted 3-4 days, the other class was fed up by the end 😂
#i love his class so much#i love hearing his and my mom’s stories anout their students#it makes me look forward to teaching#my brother even has a ‘quote wall’#any time something funny happens the students write it down#my brother’s students#<-i think i’m going to start using that tag

PSA Concerning the Supreme Leader
I understand that there are some of us who only just begun to fully realize what it might mean that Kylo Ren is *muffled sobbing over intercom* the Supreme Leader of the First Order and now effectively the galaxy because the Resistance failed to defeat him which is a very good thing indeed, especially for me and everyone else in the First Order. Looking back, the idea of Dameron valiantly... excuse me, I mean the Rebel Scum defeating the S-supreme Leader prior to surrendering was ridiculous, which is why I never entertained such thoughts.
I seek to assure you that everything will be fine despite... thanks to Kylo Ren being the Supreme Leader. I’m very sure that he’ll keep up our sustainable resource initiatives as we go on to rule the galaxy. That one occasion when he burned 50,000 tons of coaxium firing at his uncle’s ghost was a fluke, a bit of nerves on the first day at the job. He’s been locked in his chambers since the signing of the treaty. So, I cannot claim to know his exact plans for our next course of actions. I’m not worried. I simply needed to make this announcement as part of my duty as general.
*obvious sobbing*
My apologies. I’m just tearing up a little due to a very painful, bloody paper cut. I should probably go attend to that now.
Long live the First Order and the Supreme Leader.
*end of announcement*
#hux roleplay#armitage hux#general hux#kylo ren#first order#supreme leader kylo ren#long live the supreme leader *look of excruciating pain*#The Journal of Armitage Hux-Dameron#poor hux#his life is going to suck#message to all first order personnel

Work has been playing this PSA over the intercom about eating disorders and how they're teaming up to fight them but like... when their employee can't get treatment because she has no way to pay for everything while she's gone and they're not going to offer any kind of program or help for employees suffering from eating disorders, like... it's clear they're more interested in shit marketing tactics.
Every day at work is hell because my muscles are in pain and you just want to babble about how you're helping by "spreading awareness."
If I could go get treatment my life would be so fucking different, but instead I'm just stuck in a cycle of self-recovery and relapse. It's not working.
