Splashdown of Apollo 15

"Two images taken from a recovery helicopter of the Apollo Command Module Endeavour during its descent, showing all three main parachutes inflated, left, followed shortly by the collapse of one of the main parachutes."

"The Apollo 15 Command Module (CM), with astronauts David R. Scott, commander; Alfred M. Worden, command module pilot; and James B. Irwin, lunar module pilot, aboard safely touches down in the mid-Pacific Ocean to conclude a highly successful lunar landing mission.

Although causing no harm to the crew men, one of the three main parachutes failed to function properly.

The splashdown occurred on August 7, 1971, some 330 miles north of Honolulu, Hawaii. The three astronauts were picked up by helicopter and flown to the prime recovery ship, USS OKINAWA (LPH-3), which was only 6 1/2 miles away."

Date: August 7, 1971

14:00

Warnings: Death, CPR, car accident, blood, head injury, stud’s causing blood, match abandoned, panic attack?, ankle injury, vomit(barely, bile), badly translated Spanish - google translated (has english though too). 

A/N: Part 2? If yes Angsty or Fluffy?? Or both??

One minute you were walking down the street with your best friend, the next minute you were on call with 112, about to start CPR on your best friend. Every minute that went by she slipped further and further away. The women who hit her. The women who didn’t even know her was breaking down. Her continuous screams of “I’m sorry” pierced your ears over and over. This women, a women who didn’t even know her was allowed to break down but you couldn't. You had to fight back the tears that brimmed your eyes. You had to stay strong. Watch how her chest caved inward with every compression. Watch as the colour faded away from her body slowly, as blood spilled out of her. Watch as her pupils dilated further. Watch as her chest caved in slightly less with every compression and feel how your arms burnt more with every compression, your breath becoming more ragged with every minute, becoming increasingly aware of your heart that pounded in your chest. A wave of relief should’ve washed over you as you heard the sirens but it didn’t, instead you steadily became increasingly aware of the severity of the situation you we’re in.

“Señorita, ¿puede dar un paso atrás? Nos haremos cargo.(Miss, can you step back, we will take over.)” You didn't even look at him, not even a glance, your mind was laser focused, nothing else could get in. You had to keep going. You couldn't stop. She couldn't die. A hand was placed on your shoulder and it pulled you back, the paramedics immediately resumed CPR, you knelt there, trembling, tears threatening to leave your eyes, but you didn’t let them win.

“¿Puedo comprobarte? (Can I check you out?)” A voice said as they placed a hand on your back, you flinched “No, no, estoy bien, estoy bien (No, no I’m fine, I’m fine)” you reassured yourself. Because you were fine, you weren’t the one dying on the pavement.

----

“Ella ha estado codificando durante una hora, llámalo (She’s been coding for an hour, call it)” “Hora de la muerte 14:00 (Time of death 14:00)” you turned around, walked away, not noticing some of your teammates standing there, they all expected you to break but you didn’t. 14:00 signalled your best friend’s time of death, it also signalled the death of your ability to feel any emotion, you walked straight out of the hospital and back home, like a robot, monotone, you continued to just go through the daily motions of life for weeks, somehow not feeling any emotion. Until Alexia decided to try and get through to you one day.

“Y/N! aquí ahora(here now),” up until this point she was letting you go, when you didn't respond when you ignored her, but she wasn’t letting you go this time.

“Why are you training?” she bluntly said “What do you mean?” you snapped knowing very well what she meant, ever since that day your ankle had been hurting, but you had managed to hide it, until today, you had a slight limp, but you hoped no one noticed.

“Your ankle is hurt.” “No, it's not, I’m fine.” “Y/N,” “I’m fucking fine Alexia, what don’t you understand about that, estoy bien, is that better, do you understand now, can't you just leave me alone, that's all anyone has been doing for weeks.” Alexia was hurt, you had insinuated she was dump, but she wasn't going to continue pushing. she knew you didn't like talking about your emotions, they all did, but your last words repeated over in her head, was leaving you alone doing more harm than good, did you feel like you couldn't show emotion. She didn't know but she had just seen some sort of emotion from you, in your words and eyes, you had been aggressive and defensive, but your last words made her feel you were one trigger, one thing away from letting it all out.

____

It was only a week later when you were forced to show real and raw emotions again, there was a corner, and instead of Hannah Hampton’s glove hitting the ball she punched Lucy straight in the temple, causing the older women to fall to the ground with a thud, laying there lifeless, before she took studs to the shoulder as one of the Chelsea players stumbled backwards. She laid there lifeless blood pouring out of her, she couldn’t die, not this way, not the same way, your vision glazed over as the image of Lucy turned into your best friend, the sudden present of emotions choked you, the cries of the women met your ears again, the sirens, the paramedics, suddenly you couldn’t breath you had to get out of there, you ran, quickly, and found yourself hiding under a bench in the corner of the locker room, your were curled up as physically small as you could get, tears flooded out your eyes as you rocked, your hands squeezing the life from your legs, in an attempt to try and stay grounded.

Alexia had followed you, but she couldn't bring herself to moved further into the room, she just stood in the doorway not knowing what to do.

Ingrid came up behind her, informed her captain the game was abandoned, before the Norwegian women moved towards you and Alexia left, only to be greeted with all of her teammates standing in the hall, she was unsure of what to do, ever thankful that Emma offered they share the Chelsea showers, as quickly as possible your teammates came in collected all their things and quickly left, leaving just you and Ingrid in the room, the women had been trying to coax you out of your head and at least slightly back with her words, trying not to startle you, but it wasn’t working, she had no option but to place a very soft hand on your arm, which caused you to jump in sheer panic, you only ever so slightly opened a gap between your leg and arm to see who it was, but it was enough for Ingrid to see how much of a state you were in, your eyes wide open, pupils dilated in fear, tears streaming down your face.

Once you realised it was Ingrid, someone safe, someone soft, you immediately launched yourself at her, before yet again curling into the smallest ball you could in her lap, clutching at her jersey, which was quickly soaked from your tears, she held onto you tight, placing her chin on top of your head, rocking you softly as you continued to sob, as your body shook, as you were falling apart in her arms, and she was just glad someone was there when you did fall apart, her biggest fear the whole time had been what if someone wasn't there when you broke, when your heart cracked open, when the temporary tape that kept your heart together broke, but here she was, the tape had broken, causing your heart to shatter, and Ingrid was there to hold you. At some stage Mapi had come in, and sat next to Ingrid, she placed a cautious hand on your back and left it there, not moving it.

---

Your mouth started to fill with saliva, and your body rolled forward before you were met with a sour fluid in your mouth, Ingrid quickly moved a sick bag up to your mouth, and you spat out the bile before taking a small sip of water and resuming your tight ball, your eyes were still streaming, although your body had stopped shaking as much as it was. The two women resumed, their positions of just sitting there, in silence, with you, both knowing you would talk about it with time, both knowing you didn't want to be pushed, and you didn't want someone telling you it was okay, or that it would be okay because no one in life actually knew whether it would be okay or not. So they sat there with you, giving you the physical comfort and reassurance you needed, having no intention of moving until you wanted to.

---

“Go,” you said so quietly the two women barely registered it, you didn't know how long it had been, but you felt okay now, you felt ready to go and talk about it.

“Sure, you’re going to stay with us though okay,” you didn't say anything, just nodded, you were thankful you didn't have to go home to your cold apartment which was once filled with warmth from your best friend, the apartment that was once filled with laughter, once filled with joy. Ingrid lifted you up with her, and as you stood your ankle was throbbing, but it had been for the past week, what was different, however it was different when you took your first step towards the exit, a simple step caused so much pain, from one simple step your knee buckled under you as a shooting pain rose up your leg. Ingrid quickly wrapped a hand around your waist, steadying you.

“I-Ing, um, c-could we, p-pos-posibly g-go t-to the, the physios f-first?” you softly stuttered, she looked at you slightly bewilder that you had opened up so quickly about your ankle that everyone knew was hurt, the one that was clearly hurt the day Alexia called you out for it and you insisted you were fine, even though it was evident you weren't, both of them were concerned that it had somehow gotten worse in the past hour both just standing there not knowing what to do, “my-my an-ankle,” she nodded, and Mapi quickly moved ahead of you both to see if the Chelsea physios were still there and whether they could look at you or not.

“Our physios aren’t here, but the Chelsea physios are going to take care of you,” they looked over you, before getting an x-ray. “It's broken, but we are worried about ligament damage since it looks to be a stress fracture, she is going to need to get scans at the hospital,” your body stiffened at his words, as your eyes widen and you started trembling “no-no-no hospital,” you pleaded, “Can’t you just put her in a boot and give her crutches, other than possible surgery what else would they do different if it was ligaments too.” Ingrid tried to reason with them, “We can but there is a possibility that if we don’t do the scan on her ankle today she could have to have a bigger surgery and longer recovery, or will be in pain every time she plays forever” “Qué más va a hacer una semana o dos? ya ha pasado un mes” (What more is a week or two going to do. It has already been a month)

CDK: Company Expo Set (Mesh + Recolor Pack)

Published: 9-14-2024 | Updated: N/A SUMMARY Cubic Dynamics by John B. Cube and Marcel Dusims forged the future with furnishings that were minimalist in design and maximalist in erudite pretension. Generations later, the company continues to produce edge-of-cutting-edge designs. Use the Cubic Dynamics Kitbash (Simmons, 2023-2024) collection to set up corporate, exposition, and office environments. Envisioned as an add-on to the Cubic Dynamics set (EA/Maxis, archived at GOS), it features minimalist and retro-futuristic objects. Find more CC on this site under the #co2cdkseries tag. Read the Backstory and ‘Dev Notes’ HERE. The COMPANY EXPOSITION SET includes 20+ items to create a conference/event space for your businesses and corporations. This set doubles as the main MESH PACK for all items in the CDK series.

DETAILS All EPs/SPs. §See Catalog for Pricing | See Buy/Build Mode All files with “MESH” in their name REQUIRED for textures/models to display correctly in-game. Recolors are linked to the Booth Partition (vertical woods, metal), Booth Table (horizontal woods, colors), Booth Wall in marble (256x256 Mm marble), Floor Sign 1 (256x512 vertical images), Painting 001 (256x512 images), Painting 004 (1024x512 images), Pinboard (256x512 pinfabric), Pinboard Poster (512x512 horizontal images), Planter 001 (256x512 paneling/pouf). Objects in Sims 2 are limited to two recolorable parts, so not all items are recolorable in the same way. Several objects in this series are oversized/offset. You may need to shift an object upwards once to level it, and you may need “move objects” and “grid on/off” cheats to place them to your liking. When placing partitions/floating shelves and tables/desks/counters on the same tile, place the partition/shelves first. I recommend using this set with Object Freedom 1.02 (Fway, 2023), which includes Numenor’s fix for OFB shelves (2006), for easier use overall.

Alright, out of the 112 fics tagged for GTWS and Sickfic, heres what i managed to find that was specifically centered on Scar being sick. I cannot say if you would like them or if they are "good", but they are what I found. Also I haven't added any smuts cause i reckon thats not what you're looking for.

[Recursos] Recursos trans anti-suicídio e contra se machucar

O reflexo de querer morrer ou se machucar é muitas vezes por sentir falta de controle. Oque é uma emoção entendível, mas desistir parece mais fácil do que lutar para chegar em um estado mental melhor ou lutar contra a sociedade. Nós como pessoas trans, ou pessoas cis que não se encaixam, temos um fardo que nós nunca pedimos, de ir contra esses preconceitos.

Cada SH tem seu motivo especifico, dentre os quais podem ser controlar seus sentimentos, se acalmar, tomar controle da vida, se sentir conectado com seu corpo, etc. É importante identificar qual a sua motivação, ou mistura de motivações, para poder entender seus padrões de auto mutilação e tentar mitigar eles. Pense bastante no que você esta sentindo e porque acha que se machucar "te ajudaria" nisso de acordo com seu instinto que te faz querer fazer isso. Então, tente racionalizar porque isso não ajuda e ver alternativas que te ajudariam melhor.

Red White and Royal Blue Notes Day 2

WARNING: Spoilers for both the movie and up to chapter 7

if Henry was a woman I would be so very attracted to him

I don’t think this the intent- but maybe it is- back int the day female authors would use literary references to prove that they are well read so they would be taken seriously,  and this book has referred to things as Shakespearean, there is a reference to Byron and discussion of the themes of Great Expectations. It may be that as this is the authors first novel and it is not about a “literary topic’ she is in some way trying to prove herself. 

Oh sweet Alex, you’re like me- probably should have realized you weren’t straight sooner

I like that we get to see Alex’s thought process when he’s questioning his sexuality

Wow the discussion on 112 is really nice to have. I know I was the same way, but if took me time to realize and figure out. It’s also nice that the added pressure on Alex is brought up, because even in the year 2019 (and still in 2023) there are some people that still hate queer people.  

It’s sad that Alex had to consider how his being LGBTQ+ would impact his mother’s and his future political career  

Nora has no time or desire for dates.(116) This leads me to believe that Nora might be aromantic hold up let me do a google search. According to Wikipedia at a book signing McQuistion said that Nora was aromantic, but I can’t find any information to back this up anywhere else so *shrug.*

I love how Nora is  nonchalant about the kiss between Henry and Alex she just like well yea he’s gay and you hot so yea. 

Either Nora’s gaydar is really good, or Alex is broken, or both. Listen I know Nora said she studied patterns to come to her conclusion but like… how, there’s no way I think that it has to- at least in some part- gaydar.

Lol that fact that Nora knew Alex liked Henry before Alex knew. (120)

Wait a minute! When Nora was talking about the NDA earlier the gay thing wasn’t a joke! She knew! (I guess it really depends on whether or not she knew at that time, but I totally think she did.)

    Nora totally ships it

“A diabolical scheme of seduction” (130) Oh my god!

I think Amy definitely knows what’s up and ships it too!

Oh yea Amy totally knows, she totally ships it. (136)

146- Zarah telling Alex are writing fanfic about him and Henry is funny for 2 reason #1 the general public has now knowledge of their non-public interaction as still ship it, so either the fans are really wild or Alex is way worse at hiding his feelings for Henry than her thinks he is. The second is that it’s sort of meta because on A03 alone there are 6,640 works for this book, and most of them are about the two of them, so both in the fictional world and in the real world people are writing fanfic about them

Wait hold up why is Henry competing in a charity polo match in the US? Dose anyone in the US play polo? Huh?

148- This is irrefutable evidence that Amy knows. It’s not evidence that she ships it, but she’s sure as hell not trying to stop them.

Okay why did I end having to read two of the spicy scenes at WORK! I mean sure it was more implied than anything but my god! Why were they so close together? 

152 “Don’t threaten me with a good time.” ALEX! (it was a pretty funny response though. 

Also “First son of you former colony” (152)  had me cackling

Henry calling America “Off brand England” is so damn funny! (152)

  Okay so many of their to and from lines in their emails are so funny!

What is that red mark? Is that me? I am bleeding? Oh sh- I’ll be back (158)

(1992.)

This church isn’t like the one back home, but it’s just as run-down. Mid-afternoon on a Thursday means there’s barely anyone here, but I can see a few people gathering in the pews. These doors are always open...something I found out when I had to drag Gen somewhere after his 3rd class celebratory bender.

There’s a confessional booth, but it doesn’t look like it’s being manned. I don’t care. I shut the door behind me and sit with a sigh.

“Sorry, I...” I start. “It’s okay. I don’t care if no one hears it, I just...”

I stare at the scuffed wood in front of me, wonder how many others have sat where I have. Confessed any amount of...well, anything.

I clear my throat again. “My best friend and I, we’ve been together like glue since we were in high school. We’ve been through a lot of sh--I mean, crap together...” Better not swear in front of the priest. Or God. Or whoever. “And like...he’s one of the only friends I’ve got.

“Now though...well, we’re both, er, we’re both in SOLDIER, and he’s got someone new he’s really...really fond of. It’s not like a girlfriend or something. He doesn’t date girls.” My heart stops. “F-forget I said that. He’s just eccentric. And there’s someone new in his life, and they spend all their time together now. They’re on missions together, they hang out together...”

I sigh. “I just wish we could hang out like we used to again.”

The truth is, I’m jealous. I know Gen was obsessed with me too, in a way that wasn’t healthy at all. Especially when he kept trying to make a move on me when I told him no. So him having someone else to put that...energy towards should be a good thing in theory.

But we’re still friends. He’s still my best friend. So why--

“Wow, that’s sad--”

“Ahh!” I yelp, jerking back and shaking the booth. It’s a young girl’s voice from the other side of the wooden mesh. What the hell?! Someone was actually listening?!

She pulls it open with her chin in both hands. “Sorry Mister SOLDIER, I didn’t mean to scare you,” she says.

She has bushy brown hair with huge green eyes. She can’t be more than...well, she’s probably older than she looks. At least in high school herself.

“Sure, well...” I didn’t really want to put a face to this, let alone some random girl... “I’m gonna get going then...”

“Hey, wait! Maybe I can help!” she says, waving one hand. “Like, uh...what did you guys used to do together in school? To hang out?”

“Well, we were in jazz band together...”

“Maybe you can start doing that again!” She becomes animated. “Ooh, what instrument do you play?”

I don’t think she’s trying to come onto me. It’s happened to me before--especially with teenage girls. No, I think she’s genuinely excited. “I play drums. My friend plays bass.”

“See! Easy. You just start a band!” She is quite proud of herself. “Problem solved!”

I can’t help but laugh...what a strange kid. Still, it isn’t a bad idea. Gen always talked about getting a band together. Didn’t he say Seph played guitar? Wonder if he would be willing...

That way the three of us could hang out, without it being a work thing. I’ll never forget our tour with the three of us...but who knows when that’ll happen again.

I turn toward her with a nod. “You know what? You might be right,” I say. “If anyone asks for me, I wasn’t here.”

“Sure thing! But I don’t even know your name.”

“All the better.”

I step out, stretching a bit--those booths are so cramped. They’re not made for Banora men. To my surprise, the girl comes out too, running over. She’s wearing overalls and a pink t-shirt, her transparent pink jelly sandals squeaking with every step.

“Hey, one more thing,” she says. “Do you know those guys in the suits?”

“You mean the Turks?”

“Yeah. There’s a guy with red hair I keep seeing hanging around. Can you tell him to leave me alone? I can take care of myself!”

Oh God, is this girl under Turk surveillance? I don’t need to get wrapped up in that. Time to go. I’m 99% sure she’s talking about Reno, though, so... “I’ll pass on the message,” I say.

(A.H.)

epilogue:

(1997.)

He’s eating today, so that’s good. Zack is still out of the loop, but Genesis is over every evening. I feel like I need to keep an eye on him for Zack’s sake...in exchange for keeping him in the dark.

“Hey, you know something,” Angeal says suddenly, his voice croaking. He clears his throat before he continues. “I just remembered...you and I had a run in before, a few years ago, before you and Zack got together.”

I blink. “Huh?”

“You were here at the church, and I was...” He smiles and shakes his head. “I was getting some shit off my chest about Gen. My mom had died, so I didn’t have anyone else to talk to about it. So I came here. And there you were.”

I roll through my memory. Here at the church...so it would’ve had to have been after Mom disappeared, after I was on the street...I snap my fingers. “Oh! Oh yeah! Mister SOLDIER!”

His smile is warm. “Thanks for that, by the way. Your little idea was pretty brilliant. It brought us together.”

“God, I barely remember that. I was going through a lot myself,” I reply. It was after I started living at the church, and only just getting used to three meals a day again.

“We all were,” he says. “Everyone is, all the time.”

His smile fades, and mine does too. Strange how these things work out.

confessions of a junkorexic

🩷☠️🖤☠️🩷☠️🖤☠️🩷☠️🖤☠️🩷☠️🖤☠️

carbs are going to be death of me. literally and figuratively. i 🩷 carbs. if i could spend the rest of my life living off of chips, pastries, and potatoes, without the fear of my body mirroring the pudginess of the pillsbury doughboy, i would. carbs are my bestie. carbs are my comfort. but carbs are also my mortal 🔥enemy🔥. do you know how hard it is to combat a food addiction when sh*t like carbs exists?? very f*cking hard. it’s no secret that junk foods are genetically modified with a laundry list of different chemicals in order to make them so addictive (gotta love america), but my god does it have to be that addictive?!

so what’s my solution? to do what anyone else who’s trying to overcome a substance abuse addiction does—quit cold turkey. a decision that has only opened up yet another clusterf*ck of problems. it’s like i catapulted myself from one side of the #ed spectrum to the other. it worked for a while. my first ever “honeymoon phase”. it felt good to feel so in control of my binge urges for once. but the feelings of satisfaction and determination can only last but so long. that’s why it’s a phase. now i’m here, cursed for all of eternity and doomed to live the rest of my days in a binge/restrict limbo while simultaneously oversharing about it on the internet. can whoever’s in charge of my sim just trap me in a room with no door until i perish? it’ll be painful but at least i’ll go out skinny.

funny enough, do you know what prompted this entire tangent? popcorn. i really love popcorn. too much actually. so much so that i ended up eating over 600 cals worth of it in one sitting yesterday. and 420 cals worth of it today. THAT’S ENOUGH CALS FOR TWO MEALS!! will i ever be free from the clutches of carbs? find out next week on Confessions of a Junkorexic!

S: Well, my job is done here. *starts walking off* Enjoy your day or whatever.

Sh: *gets a message* What's this?...Oh! *quickly texts back and stands up, handing Wakko her snacks* You two watch them! I have siblings to find! They need me! *rushes off*

W: Uh… okay. Should we go with Yakko?

D: Nah. We’ll just surprise him if he saw us alone here without a guardian. Let’s go back to the tower before anyone notices us.
