Aaron Frazer Interview: Implicit to Explicit

Photo by Rosie Cohe

BY JORDAN MAINZER

"The difference between Carole King and Westside Gunn...is a lot shorter than people realize," Aaron Frazer said to contextualize his second solo album Into The Blue (Dead Oceans). Reading that before I listened to the record for the first time had me primed for the unexpected. And while it's not an album that sounds like A$AP Rocky and Jessica Pratt--let alone a legendary folk singer and raw Griselda crew member--Into The Blue does demonstrate the genre-hopping prowess of a versatile singer-songwriter. Frazer, dealing with a breakup and a cross-country move from New York to Los Angeles, looked to his own record collection for comfort. He also returned to the exploratory mindset of his crate-digging past to make an album that captures heartbreak, transitions, ends, and new beginnings in all of their complexity.

Long before he was known as the falsetto singer and drummer of Durand Jones & The Indications, Frazer was a beatmaker, toying around with FL Studio (fka FruityLoops) as a teenager. He went on to study sound engineering at Indiana University, where The Indications were formed. While his records with The Indications as well as his solo debut Introducing..., the latter produced by Dan Auerbach, are clear contemporary takes on old-school soul, Into The Blue reveals Frazer's love for hip-hop. Co-producer Alex Goose (Freddie Gibbs, Madlib, Brockhampton) helped Frazer incorporate samples, from 60s teen pop music to 90's R&B, into his songs. Best, the samples are purposeful and tasteful. Opening track "Thinking Of You" takes the opening line from The Shades' "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town", "Hey...it's him again...uh-oh!" to reintroduce Frazer and establish the modus operandi of Into The Blue. "Lonely nights like this, I still feel your kiss," Frazer sings over a swelling, lovelorn orchestra. "Fly Away" culls from the Hi-Five song of the same name in a coincidental bit of studio magic, where a song Frazer and Jungle's Lydia Kitto had been working on happened to follow the same chord progression as the 90's R&B classic that Goose had filed away for future sampling use.

Of course, for Frazer, sampling is just a more direct callback to the past than his normal, indirect cherry picking of blue-eyed soul. Into The Blue expands his horizons. The title track juxtaposes strings, breakbeats, and country western guitars. "I Don't Wanna Stay" employs a 5-piece string section to enhance the dramatic, cinematic flair of Frazer's storytelling. "Easy To Love", which does interpolate Kenix's disco classic "There's Never Been (No One Like You)", sports a four-on-the-floor drum beat and keyboard sprinkles for a slice of pure funk. And "Payback" takes a base of Northern soul-esque drum fills and handclaps and smothers them with whispered and lurking-to-shouting backing vocals and Nick Waterhouse's blistering guitar.

A few months ago, I spoke with Frazer over the phone. Calling from his apartment in Los Angeles, he discussed both the sonic inspirations and making of Into The Blue. He was also in the process of figuring out how to play the album live. Frazer had done a release show on June 28th, the day the album was released, something that he hadn't done since he was in college. "I forgot how much work goes into finishing an album rollout," Frazer said, "adding in the last little bits before release while also trying to perform not just passably, but well, for the first time in front of an audience who has only heard the record for a maximum of 18 hours." The answer on his current tour, including a stop Sunday at Thalia Hall? A 7-piece band, including Frazer behind the drum kits for a third of the show, switching places with his drummer/singer. It's still a challenge. "[Into The Blue is] a band album, but it's a production album, as well," Frazer said. "There are elements that need to be shifted in a live context...There are more voices on the record than I'm going to have on stage. I'm not going to have the string section. How are you getting to capture that psychedelic moment and dub basement soul in a live setting?"

Find out the answer on Sunday and read our conversation below, edited for length and clarity.

Since I Left You: On Into The Blue, why did you decide to work with a different set of people than those whom you worked with on your first record?

Aaron Frazer: In some ways, it's a whole new set, but in [other] ways, it's a return to my normal workflow. On the strings and horns, those are all my friends from Brooklyn who I've been working with on the Durand Jones & The Indications records since 2018, with American Love Call. It's less that this was a new thing: When you work with Dan Auerbach, and he's in the producer role, you have access to his collaborators. They're legends who have played on cornerstone records of American music. It's amazing. When I do it myself, I like to work with my friends. This was a mix of my friends from New York and new friends that I had made in Los Angeles, which included Lydia Kitto and Joshua Lloyd from Jungle, [as well as] Nick Waterhouse. Also, because I had the opportunity to do whatever I wanted, I was also able to hit up people I had wanted to work with for a long time, like Cold Diamond & Mink.

SILY: You were dealing with material that was a bit more vulnerable than on past records. Was it a blessing to work with your friends, people you could be vulnerable around?

AF: This record is the sound of me navigating and processing the things happening in my life very much in real-time. Definitely, working with friends allows me a certain level of vulnerability. When I wrote "Into the Blue", the day I showed up for that session, I was honestly too bummed out to write anything. Maybe in another session, that wouldn't be okay, or I'd feel some sort of pressure to power through, but because they were my friends, I voiced that. There was no pressure, and we just listened to some records, and the records we were listening to wound up inspiring the original demo of "Into the Blue". So it's definitely a blessing to work with friends.

SILY: What records were you listening to?

AF: We all geek out over records that feel ghostly, so The Ink Spots, for example. "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire" is the classic Ink Spots tune people know. Some of the Charlie Parker with Strings album has this big, classic Disney chorus. I don't mean Frozen, more the old school Disney.

SILY: Fluttery instrumentation.

AF: Some Hawaiian stuff has a lot of ghostly qualities. Eventually, we came to Ennio Morricone's stuff, which is very much in the through-line to Into the Blue and a thread throughout this record.

SILY: I wrote down the word "ghostly" the first time I listened to "I Don't Wanna Stay", with the five-piece string section and the backing vocal harmonies. Combined with the themes of the record in general--a dying or dead relationship--it fits. Was that interplay between theme and instrumentation at top of mind when making the record?

AF: Definitely. It felt like I was navigating a haunted house. It kind of feels like for me, this album is the sound of driving across the country, but having flashbacks to the life that I left.

SILY: I'm definitely intrigued by the use of samples, and I imagine working with Alex Goose spurred that. It doesn't seem like that different of an overall approach from what you were doing previously, the same way you might call back to a classic genre or sound. Sampling is just a little more specific.

AF: I grew up making hip-hop instrumentals. I downloaded a free version of FruityLoops, which is now called FL Studio. It now sounds more professional. The first beat I ever made was a loop of the intro of the song "Lullaby of Birdland", this great piano intro. I made it in Windows Movie Maker, which was on the computer. I've always been drawn to samples. At first, it was jazz samples, then soul samples. I started going to Goodwill in the dollar bin to look for stuff to sample when I was in high school. That's when I started to learn all these other types of music, looking for samples. Hip hop and sampling have been there early on in my musical career. The current approach that people know me for with The Indications and my solo stuff is referential, and I think that referencing is its own form of sampling. You sort of approximate rather than go directly to the source. You put your own spin on it. Working with Goose was really cool because not only do we both share an enthusiasm for eclecticism, but hip hop is a genre that brings disparate elements together. That's always who I have been as a music fan and music writer. Allowing hip hop production to be in the driver's seat allows me to bring that eclecticism back to the forefront, to shift the dial one click towards hip hop being explicit instead of implicit in my writing. I don't think it was a big transition for me. I feel like I've been doing it in one form or another my whole life.

SILY: Certain songs, like "Fly Away", seem to be built around the sample, whereas others are more interpolative, or the sample is just thrown in at the beginning. How did your songwriting process come about? Did you start with the sample, or come up with the song and later think, "I could add something in here."?

AF: The beginning of "Thinking of You", that vocal drop, we were just digging through some stuff, and we thought, "That would be so sick," so we just threw it in at the beginning. We didn't construct the song around it. "Fly Away" is an interesting one, because I have the demo, and it's me and Lydia--I have this piano progression that we played--and we wrote the song to the piano progression. When Lydia and I were at Goose's studio, he was flipping through some loops he had. Sometimes, he'll just chop up songs to file them away for future use. He had this Hi-Five loop, and I realized it was the same general chord movement as the song Lydia and I had put together. As he was playing this loop, I started singing this song down that Goose had never heard before, and Lydia was in on the background vocals with me. It was so funny to see Goose's reaction. His jaw dropped. He was like, "What is happening? How have you already written a song to this?" It was a bit of good luck and coincidence that the chord movements could wrap onto each other. It had already been a 90's R&B vibe, it was just divine timing to hit this 90's R&B loop and bring this implicit influence to an explicit place.

SILY: The first time I listened to it, that's exactly what stood out: the sample, yes, but the song sounds like you could hear it on a 90's R&B radio station.

AF: Mary J. Blige in the 90's made her career by taking soul samples and doing this neo soul approach to 70's soul samples. I feel like I inverted the ratio. I'm more inspired by 70's soul, but I applied it to 90's sampling.

SILY: What was your approach to sequencing the record?

AF: Sequencing is so important on a record like this. This is such an eclectic, sprawling record. I'm not doing death metal, or anything--it's all in its zone--but this album is the sound of my record collection. When it comes to food, sometimes the flavors that would work together, if eaten in the wrong order, don't taste good. Music is very much like that. You are a DJ. Two songs that are sick won't connect with people if you don't sequence it correctly. We tinkered around a lot with the--I almost said setlist, but that's kind of how it feels. We're DJs and trying to get that set together to feel good and not give you whiplash stylistically and show the authentic emotional journey I went on from New York to LA, from in a relationship to out of a relationship, from touring like crazy with a band to all of a sudden having a year off.

SILY: I noticed a lot of contrast in texture from one song to another, which is key in both albums and food! That ghostly quality is there throughout Into The Blue, but on a song like "Payback", Nick Waterhouse's guitars are so fuzzy and sharp.

AF: It's brash and bombastic. And then "Perfect Strangers" is the salmon sashimi of the record. It's subtle.

SILY: That one's just you on your guitar with background singers?

AF: There's a little bit of bass, but it's very minimal.

SILY: Are you the type of songwriter who is always writing even when you've just released a new album?

AF: There were maybe two weeks where I was feeling a bit of burnout. came out on June 28th, and on July 2nd, I flew to North Carolina to start working with The Indications on our 4th record, to start recording. That took a lot of caffeine to get me dialed back in. But I'm always hearing sounds where I'm like, "I want to do something like that!" Or little scraps come to me in the shower.

SILY: Are the sounds you're hearing, is that from you actively listening to music?

AF: I love clicking around YouTube until all the sidebar recommendations are 45 labels, and then I'm like, "Now I'm digging in." Instagram is an incredible discovery tool. It's crazy. Spotify's Discover Weekly is really cool. Thankfully, I also have friends who I tell, "Literally send me music any time of day or night." I might not respond if you text me at 2 A.M.--actually, I probably will be still awake--but I love getting recommendations from anywhere and everywhere.

SILY: Some people I talk to, when actively writing music, they really need to shut out all art. It sounds like you're the total opposite. You're a sponge.

AF: Yeah. [Ralph Waldo] Emerson coined "transparent eyeball." You have to see everything and let it pass through you. I will say that while I am a sponge, there's times for soaking in and times for wringing out. There's a bit of a reset period. Before I start wringing out again, I'm definitely in a soaking in period. But with The Indications, I'm having to soak in while finding a corner of my sponge self to wring out.

SILY: You're deft with metaphors! I can tell you're a songwriter.

AF: [laughs]

SILY: Is there anything else about the record I didn't ask about that you want to say?

AF: I feel very proud of the high-brow/low-brow [duality] of this record. "The Fool", the last track of the record, the drums, bass, and guitar are all one iPhone voice memo. It's fun to be at a point in my career where I've done this enough times to be grounded in my compass so I can be like, "Yeah, it's an iPhone voice memo, but it had magic to it, so I used it and tracked on top of it." I hope people listen to the full record. I think it's hard to pick any one song to represent what this album is. I tried to make it a full body of work.

SILY: It's funny that you mention high-brow/low-brow with "The Fool", because you have the low-brow with the iPhone, but in regard to the high-brow, Bryan Ponce's backing vocals remind me of a Greek chorus.

AF: It's exactly supposed to be that!

Wildflowers and Chides

Hello everyone! Welcome to my HBO War Summer Exchange gift for @floralcyanide. I hope you like both this little writing piece and the mood board to accompany it. I thoroughly enjoyed creating this, and of course, being able to write for Harry was a delight. As always, it was great taking part in @hbowardaily 's event, so, without further ado, here's Wildflowers and Chides!

Pairings: Harry Crosby x Reader

10th June 1944

Wid flowers swirled in the warm summer air. A contrast to the months of ground frost, chilling winds, and cloaks of mist that blanketed over Station 139. Weather that broke even the toughest of airmen and women on base. Weather that was often joked about before their feet found Anglia for the first time. It was almost like England became a whole new quaint paradise as Spring ended and Summer finally began to break. A quaintness only to be disturbed by the roaring Pratt and Whitney’s of the heavy bombers who braced the blue skies for a greater good. 

Goosebumps radiated from the young girl's arms as another soft gust blew her (Y/H/C) around her face, creating an almost angelic effect. Her (Y/E/C) gazed out over the spread of colour, thoughts of those who had been lost in the months previous weighing heavy upon her mind, a burning hope that they would all return to Thorpe Abbotts one day like nothing had truly happened. However, (Y/N) knew that nothing would truly be the same. 

The peace and quiet was a concept that had seemed so foreign only a week prior. Hustle and bustle had become the norm for those who both knew what they were preparing for and those who had no idea of the history in the making. For weeks, (Y/N) rolled bandages, restocked supplies, and ensured those who graced the infirmary were comfortable. The number of casualties was slowly starting to decline, a relief to the medical staff, but as the Invasion of Mainland Europe approached, a stifling expectation for multiple casualties left the (Y/H/C) on edge as the 6th became the 7th; it was apparent that Operation Overlord was a success and (Y/N) could finally breathe. 

Summer. It was a bittersweet thought, especially regarding memories of home. Long, hot summers spent in sundresses, sipping on iced teas seemed like distant ones. Home alone was a distant thought, but with the allies now in Europe, it was like an end was finally in sight. 

“I thought I’d find you here.”

A soft, raspy voice quickly broke the young nurse from her daydream, returning her to the field in England, far from home, in her standard nurse uniform, not a sundress. 

“Ah, you join the land of the living again, I see, Croz,” she replied as she tilted her gaze up to meet the taller male, nodding as he motioned to the spot beside her. “You and I both know Smokie warned you about taking more of those pills than needed. Rest is just as important as all those maps you plotted.” 

Her chide was serious but, at the same time, held an air of lightness. She knew that Harry was dedicated to his work, driven by the loss of his friends, but that didn’t stop her from worrying about the brunette navigator's welfare. Especially once she found out he’d been taking medication to stay awake. 

Lightly nudging her with his signature lopsided grin, Harry couldn’t help but take in the true beauty of the girl sitting beside him. Framed with wildflowers and a worry for him. He’d spent the whole morning listening to Rosie prattle on what he missed, and sure, he was disappointed to have missed the big day, but what he’d also truly missed were moments like these. A moment to reflect and soak up being with the people who bring the most joy. 

“Ahh, alright, alright. I should’ve listened, but we both knew I needed to get those maps done. Besides, if I hadn't been out so long, I wouldn’t have been able to dream long and hard about this moment, would I?” The male quickly cursed under his breath; it had sounded so much smoother in his head. Quickly leaning forward, Harry plucked a Marguerite from the ground before offering it to (Y/N) with a shy smile. 

A blush began to form on the girl's cheeks as she received the sweet-smelling wildflower. An angelic laugh fell on her lips as she leaned across to gently kiss Harry’s cheek. 

“You argue a good point. I just worry about you, Harry. How can I explain to my Ma in my next letter that my favourite navigator missed the biggest assault in history? Not to mention that it doesn’t make a great story to tell at our wedding, but I guess I’ll leave that for Rosie to write into his best man speech.” she teased back, grinning as her hand smoothly found his as it perched beside her own, the maroon gemstone of her engagement ring glinting in the sunlight.  

Laying back amongst the wildflowers, Harry pulled (Y/N) to lay with him. Tucking her perfectly into his side, like matching puzzle pieces. His own laugh echoed, bringing butterflies to (Y/N) and intensifying her blush with a chaste kiss pressed first to her forehead and then her lips. 

“I wouldn’t change a thing if it meant I’d end up here with you.”

Okay so, I wrote another one @g-on-ef @pink-mask-06 @spotsandclawsthings

PLEASE DO NOT COPY

⚠️MENTIONS OF SA⚠️

Maya- age 15

OH MY GOD!!!!! I'm so excited right now, I'm going on a datecwith this really cute guy at school. He got that James Dean daydream look in his eyes. Dad and Niko were not agreeingto this, but mom convinced them like a queen

"I can't believe that you're going on a date, I'm so happy for you!!!"

Mia signs. A deep feeling of guilt settled in me, its because of me, I know it. Mia sees my sad expression and signs

"What happened?Why are you sad?"

"It's....Nothing. Its just nervousness"

"Why is my confident diva bitch is nervous?"

"Oh please don't act like Anikka"

We both laughed and I hugged Mia and said

"I love you Mia, you are my hero"

"Aww, I love you too"

Mia left me alone in my room so that I could get ready. While doing my makeup, I got a call. Without checking the caller ID, I picked up the call

"Why the fuck are you going on a date when I told you not to?!"

I froze as I heard the poisonous voice of Pratt. But I won't let her control me, she is controlling me enough to make my life hell.

"You can't tell me what to do!!" I said angrily

"What did you just say to me?!"

She is angry, she usually gets angry like this when she is about to punish me. I hesitated a bit but I was determined.

"I said you can't control me anymore, are you fucking deaf!!"

"HOW DARE YOU TALKING TO ME LIKE THAT, I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU!!"

I pulled my phone away from my ear, she's so fucking loud!

"Stop barking like a dog. Oh wait, calling you a dog is an insult to the species of dogs, you are much worse than that. You know what you can't control me. Show me your worst bitch!"

"You-"

Before she can say anything I cut the call. Do I feel good? HELL YES!!. I won't let her control me. Just then Mia barged into my room

"Hurry up, he's here"

"What???It's too early"

"No dummy, its already 7 pm"

I flipped her off, took my belongings and went outside. There he was standing with a bouquet.

"Hey, are you ready?" he asked me.

"Yeah, let's go" I was blushing like crazy. The date went well and he also asked me out for a movie date!!!! When I reached home, my dad asked

"How are you? Do I need to kill somebody?" . I was annoyed, like I get it that dad is overprotective of Mia and me, but this is too much

"Dad no, come on, not all the boys are bad"

"I'm not sure about it" he said

Just then mom came in and said

"Kyle stop, leave that poor boy alone"

"Are you on my side or that guy's side"

"The guy's side, now come to the dinner table"

WOW, that was personal. My mom always kept my dad in check

"Honey do you want to eat dinner?" mom asked me

"Sure mom"

Even though I already ate dinner, I wanted to spend time with my family. I want to make many happy moments with them. before everything goes downhill, well I'm nit so sure about that. In next life, I don't want to live in guilt, I want to be free, I don't wabpnt to get abused. Suddenly, I got a text, it was from Pratt which said

"You're going to pay for this in the worst way"

I ignored the text and focused on my food. She's only going to beat me with a stick or worse with a belt.

After the dinner was over, I went to my room, did my skincare routine and went to sleep

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My eyes snap open as I had a nightmare in which everyone found out about the truth of Mia's kidnapping and my family disowned me. I was covered in sweat and was thirsty. I tried to take my water bottle from the nightstand. I was not able to, I realized that my hands are tied to the bedpost. I tried to call for help but I realized that my mouth is taped. I was scared, I tried to loosen the ropes but failed.

"Stop struggling my rosie, its of no use" OH NO, it was Pratt.

I didn't listened to her and started trashing on the bed. But then she punched me hard on my stomach. Hard enough to make me scream. SLAP

"Stop making fucking noise!"

What she did next traumatized me for life. She started undressing me

"I'm so angry right now Maya, you shouldn't have disobeyed me"

I was struggling against the ropes but it was of not use. She started hitting my breasts with her stick. I let out a muffled cry, begging her to stop but she didn't. But then she spread my legs

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After 2 painful hours she finally stopped. I was raped and I was not able to defend myself. I started crying again even though my eyes were puffy

"Shh....rosie don't cry, this was for your good only, you know I love you"

NO YOU FUCKING DONT!!! She then untied me and said

"Now, if you tell anyone, I'll kill your family in front of you in the most painful way" After saying this she disappeared from my window. I went to the bathroom and turned on the shower to the highest temperature and stood there until my body was burning. How can I let this happen to me!!! I just want to die.

Okay Per My Last Post (aka the poll about getting isekaied into a random Universe) here is how I would win getting Isekaied into the Mushroom Kingdom:

Step 1: Get a design that's suspiciously parallel to Rosalina's. It is ESSENTIAL that I become a counterpart to a member of the main recurring cast, and my best chance of lasting as long as possible comes from being the male counterpart to our one remaining princess. Other options include being adopted by Bowser as the 6th Koopaling, or becoming Wapeach, but I would like to remain a human male.

Also on the design notes: While I have to be a parallel to Rosalina, it is also essential that I keep the "just a guy-ness" the Mario bros have. It is essential to the dynamic.

*more under the cut*

Step 2: Show up in the next Mario DLC as a secret character that you unlock by clearing some stupidly difficult endgame challenge and beating a secret boss. Have a bunch of guides made about how to unlock me and become a beloved fan favorite. Theories abound about who I am and my role in the next Mario game. Because I am another guy in the roster, people start shipping me with Rosalina as a crack ship.

Step 2.5: Reprise my role as a secret character in another Mario game or a spinoff like Princess Peach Showtime. It is essential that a pattern be established of rescuing me from a secret boss. Nintendo must be committed to having me be in every game, even if I have to keep breaking the rules of the world to do it. I HAVE to keep being in the mainline games. Otherwise, Nintendo WILL forget about me. It's not me against the Mushroom Kingdom and its dangers. It's me against Nintendo.

Step 3: Show up in the next Mario Galaxy game as a playable character, again unlocked by beating some stupidly hard level and boss. THIS TIME THOUGH: Rosalina actually asks Mario to rescue me, further feeding the shipping fuel.

HOWEVER, there is a TWIST. After you unlock me, I will reveal a secret endgame set of levels that lets you unlock my backstory, where it is revealed that I am NOT Rosalina's lover, but instead the heir to her throne, and I get a magical girl transformation to distinguish myself from the bros. How does this work? Is she my mother? An adopted parent? A sibling? It is never explained, but all the shippers explode in horror. It is the greatest scandal to hit the Mario fandom since Chris Pratt in the Mario Movie. If I'm ever not in a game fans will riot.

(Alternatively, the entire game could be my proper introduction and lore like Galaxy 1 was for Rosie. I'm not picky, as long as I'm unique enough that I'm worth adding to DLC)

Step 4: Get added to the Mario Kart 9 DLC with Pauline because fans love me so much. At this point, I'm basically immortal because no matter what I do I will continue to show up for games. However, my magical girl transformation is a one-off fluke, and the fact I'm secretly a prince is never acknowledged again.

Step 5: Continue to be added to party game DLC until the release of Oddesy 2, where i have my own space kingdom with rosalina, similar to pauline and her kingdom. Mario can buy my magical girl outfit and he looks stunning.

Step 6: Profit.

Step 7: Accidentally do the gay hand thing (you know the one) in a promotional artwork, causing Nintendo America to apologize for promoting Gay Stereotypes on Twitter and take down the promo art. It remains up in Japan. Multiple news publications call me "Mario's first gay character" with varying inflections of 😡 or 🥰. Fail to get into smash for at least 5 games.

Edward: *Deep breath* Hey Bruno, other than having a fun name what do you make buddy?

Bruno: I answer the phrase, Truck around and find out with a lot of military trucks.

Edward: OH, my gosh.

Bruno: I made a truck that can transport tanks because you really don't wanna get their millage up, terrible for the resale value. I also made a truck that can throw around transport containers like a like a toddler and it's great for logistics. I also made this MATV which is a mine resistant ambush proof vehicle and it hits mines like you hit pot holes. And then I made the sports version of the humvee.

Edward: What else can you put on the racing version of the humvee?

Bruno: Depends on what ya wanna get rid of! The fifty cal is good for getting rid of people, the anti tank is good for getting rid of tanks, and the automatic grenade launchers are good for getting rid of ANYTHING

Edward: What have you made recently?

Bruno: I bought Pratt Miller which includes Corvette racing, they still won't let me race my trucks and run over the other drivers, dumb. However I also bought jbt aerotech so I can now make plans if I want to. Arguably, THE MOST MINE RESISTANT VIECHLE.

Edward: I now fear you and I worry Rosie will be worse

Edward:

Edward: Toby, Toby. I need help.

Toby: What? What's going on?

Edward: Whiff, Bruno, Rosie and the others are talking about building military weapons. They're becoming more and more powerful and I can't control them...

Toby: Oh my god....

I'm not absolutely certain I'll do this, as I'm already committed to other things. In fact, I might give this series idea to someone more qualified to write crossover mysteries. But still, if anyone would like to suggest types of monsters or ghosts Mystery Inc and their new co-detectives would be facing, I could try to think of the episode plots for them. Also, don't suggest the villains' identities unless through private note, otherwise it would kill the mystery.

Shhh! Don't Tell My Husband He's Mr. Fantastic!

In the movies, my husband Nick is known as Chris. Chris Pratt plays him and that was my choice. Of course, back then I didn't know that my uncle Gustaf (you probably know him better as the bard himself, Shakespeare) had written a superhero character based on Nick in the Marvel Comics: Reed Richards, the smartest man in the universe.

Now, I already knew Daddy was super smart. (Can I use his nickname Daddy on Tumblr without people assuming he and I have handcuffs next to our bed? Because we don't. We have three magical cats who can talk. I'm Mommy. It's not as sexy as you think, believe me.)

But back to Daddy's smarts. He has an IQ of 175.

If that doesn't mean anything to you, Einstein had an IQ of 160.

Yeah.

Now, had I known that, maybe I wouldn't have married the guy. But the thing is, I could always beat him in an argument. That's why he fell in love with me. I'm the only one who can beat him. That's what he told me anyway. Why would I care what his IQ was? I never paid attention. But I should have.

I really should have.

Now I see why that's a big deal.

And now I see why no one used to beat him. Holy shit. Can you imagine? Having an IQ of 175 as a kid? It explains how I found him. And it explains why he delights in me so much.

And he's been in other movies: Neo in the Matrix, John Connor in the Terminator films (it was uncle Stephan, aka Conan the Barbarian, on the motorcycle protecting Nick, not a robot) and Chris in the Book of Katherine films.

No one told me about Reed Richards! And when I learned about him, it took a while before I learned that his goddamn name is MR. FANTASTIC.

Fuuuuuuuck.

My husband already has a big ego, yo. He don't need no encouragement, ladies.

Ever see him in front of a mirror? It's hard to peel him away.

Sigh. Mr. Fucking Fantastic. Thanks a lot Gustaf.

Update: I gave up. I couldn't handle the suspense. I told Nick his name in the Marvel Comics. But when I told him, I said, "I am NOT fucking calling you that. Ever."

And that's how I roll, ladies. Like an Einstein-Wife-Boss-Bitch.

Sigh.

This is the only chart I could find with any kind of number over 160. It was made in 1928. Sigh. I am NOT showing him this. Precocious my ass. Sounds just like him. Oh! That reminds me! Speaking of precocious...

Nick is also Ralphie in A Christmas Story. And he has this very same motherfucking look!!! He uses it when he's trying to get me to do something I really don't wanna do but he really, really, really wants to. And dammit if he doesn't have the glasses and the big blue eyes and the adorable rosy cheeks and amazing smile!!!! Fucking cracks me every time.

I say yes just to see him dance around like a kid. Worth it. I'm so fucking fucked, aren't I?
