chapter 166 thoughts

As of chapter 166, Oshi no Ko has finished a roughly four-and-a-half year run started back in 2020. While there's some speculation about an epilogue or some extra content in volume 16 when it drops, this is where the main story ends. And you know what that means!!!

OSHI NO KO HAS OFFICIALLY ENDED WITHOUT ADDRESSING OR ACKNOWLEDGING THE FACT THAT RUBY KISSED HER BROTHER IN CHAPTER 143

please understand that this is FUCKING BOGUS

I'll probably do a longer post on this subject specifically, but my main critique of 143 when the chapter dropped was that while I liked the individual beats in it and I was really glad to see Akasaka finally addressing this tension bubbling underneath Aqua and Ruby's relationship, the immediate swerve away from showing us the aftermath of that kiss felt to me like an admission that the story was going to needlessly draw this out even more. Now that the story has ended and we can see that moment had literally no impact on the plot or even the character dynamics, I'd like to revise that statement - it feels like an admission of compromise. It feels like crumbs thrown to AquRuby fans to tempt them to keep reading and to stir up the waters of the ship wars, so people would keep reading and stay invested in the manga right to the very end. But most of all, it feels deeply disrespectful to both Aqua and Ruby as characters. Rather than exploring their feelings and giving both of them interiority and complexity in relation to incest or even just fucking acknowledging that the kiss had happened and letting their dynamic evolve, the series just memory holes the entire event and asks that you do too. Rather than letting Ruby have any development whatsoever as pertains to that relationship or, god forbid, let a female character move on romantically from the male lead, the series ends with her feelings so up in the air that I literally could not tell you what she thinks of Aqua by the time he dies.

ANYWAY… FINAL CHAPTER. BREATHES OUT VERY HARD.

I really can't believe it's taken us until the final chapter to actually deal with Ruby's grief over Aqua lol. We got a snippet of it last chapter but it was so brief that it really just felt like a tease. I also just think it's kind of bizarre that we're spending this little time on Ruby having feelings about Aqua's death to the extent that I have no idea how or when she found out about it.

It's also kind of hard to feel particularly strongly about Ruby's grief when the chapter doesn't really bother to explore it all that much. It's just a montage of Ruby quite literally Screaming, Crying and Throwing Up while Akane dispassionately narrates it all. The art also doesn't really help in terms of connecting with the emotions at play - I usually really like Mengo's expression work and the way she depicts extreme emotions but this all just felt like of… I don't know how else to put it. Goofy??? Is that an insane thing to say about Ruby grieving her brother???

Idk, something about both the panelling and just the extreme on-the-noseness of Ruby, again, literally Screaming, Crying Throwing Up while she's wearing a Burning cosplay Just In Case You, The Audience, Didn't Get It only for her to abruptly be done crying with no exploration or insight as to what's going on in her head that allows her to move forward.

Honestly, this is kind of the issue with everyone in the cast. The resolution is just sort of "Aqua died and we were sad about it but then we stopped being sad". I know what the story is trying to go for here - it's trying to express that even when you're in pain, life goes on and so you have to find a way to go on with it. But the result is that we spend all this time oogling at their pain without spending equivalent or even meaningful time on their recovery process.

It feels both excessive and undercooked at the same time and I'm left with the same icky, voyeuristic feeling I got from Aqua's funeral last chapter. This should be the point in the story at which we empathize with Ruby the most, but she remains a frustratingly distant figure right to the final pages. Part of this is an unfortunate consequence of Akane's narration directing these final chapters meaning that we're hearing about Ruby from an outsider's perspective and thus don't really see what's going on in her head… but if I can be frank, this has been an issue of Aka's with Ruby in particular basically nonstop since chapter 123.

As others & myself have noted, despite the absolutely catastrophic downward spiral Ruby is in at that point, Aqua revealing himself as Gorou basically flips it all off like a switch. There's some mild lipservice paid to the idea that Ruby is just using her dependency on Gorou to prop herself up and it's pointed out that the issues that contributed to her breakdown haven't actually been resolved - but none of these issues are ever even acknowledged again, let alone resolved. So, functionally, that reveal does fix all Ruby's problems in the space of a single chapter and the result is, again, that we spend multiple chapters gourging on depictions of Ruby's absolute rock bottom only for her to ping back to normal like a lightswitch. As such, the depictions of her pain feel less like explorations of Ruby's interiority and more like voyeuristic oogling at Ruby's misery and trauma and the effect is that the resolution to it all is both unsatisfying and a little gross. The result is that it feels like Akasaka is just indulgently mining the imagery of cute girls suffering because it causes simple thoughts neuron activation but doesn't respect these girls enough as characters to build them back up.

It doesn't help that this is basically the in-universe excuse for Ruby's career further skyrocketing. Instead of Ruby becoming a star on her own merits as the story keeps insisting she was supposed to, she's artificially buoyed by the public's morbid fascination with her tragedy. If I was feeling charitable towards the story right now, I would say this is an avenue of intentional critique but… well, I don't feel super charitable about the story right now lol

I WILL say that the one part of this chapter I did just uncomplicatedly like was the beat of Mem trying to suspend activities (presumably in the wake of her grief for Aqua) only for Kana to basically immediately explode into her room and help her get back on her feet. It's a beat that would've been much more effective if we'd, you know, seen it, but I otherwise enjoyed it and I thought it was sweet.

But. pbbbbtttt. I guess I can't talk around it any longer… let's get into the Dome concert.

To start things off on the immediately worst note possible, Akane describes Ruby performing at the Dome as being 'everyone's dream', including Aqua's. I'm reminded once again of the strange turn the story took in insisting that um, actually, performing at the Dome was totes Ai's dream all along (even though she literally didn't give a shit even a week before she was due to perform there herself) so Ruby performing there is fulfilling that dream for her!!! and I can't help but wonder if this abrupt shift in focus is an attempt to make readers forget what Ai's actual dream was - to see her beloved children grow up happy and healthy. Hell, it wasn't even really Aqua's dream, until the story suddenly had to try and convince us that his entire purpose for existence was to kill himself so Ruby could be an idol for slightly longer than she would've otherwise. The only people whose dreams she's textually fulfilling are Ichigo and Miyako and Ruby herself, but…

Honestly, is this really Ruby's dream anymore?

Who is Hoshino Ruby? What does she want? Why does she want it? These should be the very least of what we can concretely say about not only a protagonist but a character who has become a central figure of the entire story as Ruby has, but with the way Oshi no Ko has warped and distorted her, I find myself increasingly unsure of what the story wants her to be or how I should answer those questions.What does Ruby feel about Aqua? Was she still in love with him? Had she moved on, romantically? Was she still waiting for a response to her confession? Did she finally realize it was probably kind of shitty to respond to her brother going "lowkey wanna kms" by sticking her tongue down his throat? I Guess We'll Never Know.

This extends to whatever the fuck Ruby's relationship with idols and being an idol is. Almost the entirety of Ruby's time in the story has been spent reiterating over and over that Ruby cannot just be an idol who imitates Ai and that to truly shine, she needs to step out of her mom's shadow and shine in her own way. Ruby even literally tells Kana in no uncertain terms in 137 - "I'll be a star in my own way. I won't be like Mama."

While this has always been the text of the story, as I've pointed out before, the actual art with which Ruby's idolhood depicts her basically just as Ai 2.0. It relies so heavily on mining the imagery of Ai's charisma and personality as an idol and using them as the measure of Ruby's success as an idol that Ruby essentially has no visual or conceptual identity of her own as an idol. She's just Ai, But Arbitrarily Better, For Reasons The Narrative Fails To Actually Establish But Hopes That You Just Accept Anyway. This was always kind of annoying, but now that friction seems to have been resolved by… just making her Ai 2.0, But Arbitrarily Better (etc, etc) in the text as well. The fact that we're given no further insight as to Ruby's feelings and continue to just have Akane Explain Ruby's Character Arc to the camera also doesn't help.

All this combines to make the Dome concert and the final few pages feel exceptionally cold in a way I really don't think was intended by Akasaka. Yes, that splash page was nice and flashy but… I just felt nothing. I have no idea if or why Ruby cares about this. And even though the Dome concert has been hyped up through the entire story as the peak of Ruby's achievements as an idol, I feel no sense of accomplishment in her finally being there - not just because her journey to it was basically sneezed at us across two panels, but because it just feels hollow as a victory lap for Ruby. Again, she feels so distant and abstracted as a character that I can't bring myself to feel very strongly about her good or bad.

I think the perfect encapsulation of this are the final four pages of the story. Ruby's words here are very clearly intended to be a callback to Ai's words to Gorou in chapter one but as @all-of-her-light pointed out in our initial discussions of the chapter, Ruby very much does not have an equivalent to Ai's conclusion that she nevertheless wants and values the opportunity to find personal happiness and fulfillment outside of being an idol. Are we supposed to believe that simply being an idol is all that Ruby needs to achieve a similar degree of happiness and fulfillment? Is there no more to her than that?

I've seen a lot of people interpret this ending as exceptionally bleak and, as usual, gleefully predicting Ruby's immanent suicide because her beloved oniichansensei isn't around but this is indulging in, if you'll allow me to be frank, some pretty transparently ship-motivated flanderization. Despite what certain sections of the fandom would like to believe, Aqua and Ruby's lives, past and current, have never revolved around each other to the exclusion of every other relationship in their life. Ruby has a massive support network of people who love and care for her and actively want her to get back on her feet. I can one hundred percent believe that she does not need Aqua in her life to be happy and content.

The issue is that we don't see enough of Ruby to understand that ourselves. Again, she has become such a distant figure with so little insight into what she's thinking and why that this ending is basically a Rorschach test in which you can interpret basically whatever the hell you want or assume because we have so little canon basis to support or debunk our assumptions.

and yes. don't think i didn't see them. it IS both grimly hilarious and weirdly tonally appropriate for this ending that ruby has a bunch of oshi goods of ai and aqua including their fucking autographs set up to say goodbye to every day.

AND…… WE'RE DONE!!! THAT'S OSHI NO KO, BABY!!!! well, technically, there's going to be a 20 page extra chapter in volume 16 but I don't see it being big or substantive enough to meaningfully change my feelings about the ending so… I guess we're leaving it here. Damn. Feels crazy to be done with it.

I'll probably do a bigger post down the line about my thoughts on the ending as a whole but in terms of just How This Chapter Made Me feel, I guess the word is just… meh! It's definitely not an ending I like and I think the execution is sloppy and rushed but I also just don't really have the energy to feel angry about it. Maybe that's sad in its own way but tbh… I still really love Oshi no Ko! I still find it engaging and I find the characters I enjoy rewarding to talk about. I like the artistry of the anime adaptation. I don't blame anybody else for being so turned off by this ending that they're done with the series but for me, I like what I like about OnK too much that this ending could retroactively ruin it for me. Whatever else happens with the OnK franchise, whatever directions the anime and live-action take, this will always be the series that gave me Ai and the Hoshino family and. look at me. look at what she's done to my brain. could I really ask for anything more than that?

That being said, I'm definitely not done with discussing the series! I have fics to write (including a VERY exciting large scale project lined up with some friends), my Ai analysis post to finish and I also want to do a re-read of the series and finish my anime rewatch. I'll be here to discuss Oshi no Ko as long as I have things to say about it and as long as you guys will have me! Despite how the series ended, I've had a genuinely wonderful experience in the fandom and I really don't want to let go of the little community we've built together just because the series is done. I'm Ai's fan for all eternity!!!

if other doctors did human nature:

one is badly cosplaying as a teacher at coal hill. susan, not having regenerative abilities, is watching over him. barbara and ian have never met the doctor as the doctor; as far as they know, he's just their crotchety coworker doctor foreman, who STILL won't share his first name. the doctor was on the run from gallifrey when he stumbled upon the family... now he's just on the run from the family of blood. regrettably, barbara got a bit too nosy in the doctor's office at one point, and took his fob watch. can susan recover the fob watch from ian and barbara before it's too late?

two lands jamie and zoe in jamie's era. look it's all very well and good that you know how to navigate eighteenth-century scotland, jamie, but i'm a bit out of my depth here!

if three did this, literally nothing would change, except that now the brigadier is being harassed by two human scientists who are smarter than him rather than one. the master lands on earth and tries to sell the doctor out to the family, only for it to backfire; the brigadier's men try and fail to shoot the family; liz insists the master pay for her therapy. the doctor barely notices the difference when he becomes a time lord again

there are two different ways i'd want to play four as a human. the first is this: harry and sarah have to put up with him. stationed at a naval base, harry and sarah must ward off the family whilst also warding off the doctor's insanity. sarah is disguised as the doctor's estranged younger brother (don't question the crossdressing) and harry is disguised as harry. inevitably things go wrong.

alternatively: rather than staying in e-space, romana returns to the main universe with the doctor. unfortunately, they manage to attract the family along the way; adric must badly pretend to be human whilst corralling two fob watched time lords who have chosen a really bad time to plan their wedding

tegan and turlough have plenty of experience with hiding from aliens, being on earth, and putting up with the doctor, but boy is he annoying as a human

the doctor gives peri exactly zero instructions and then lands them in the 1300s as an amnesiac human in the midst of the black death. peri is at her FUCKING LIMIT

much like three, very little changes for eight. this is the only one i'd still be tempted to set in 1913 à la the vna/nuwho episodes. charley gets to explore the recent past (to her, anyway) whilst acting as the severely amnesiac john smith's caretaker

honestly, rose and jack would be a remarkably competent team to be saddled with the doctor as a human... and he's falling in love with both of them, of course

amy vs the family: amy has won. rory gets possessed by the family but don't worry, it gets unwritten from time. the doctor is never doing that again, ever, yuck, he ate pears, YUCK

i don't think clara could be trusted with the doctor as a human, and if this was bill and nardole, i don't think the doctor would change much as a human. missy is not fob watched because she is in the vault and therefore simply inaccessible. bill continues to get set weird essays. the family are so focused on trying to get to missy (who they KNOW is there) that they fail to realise the doctor is there and simply perish within their three-month lifespans

Con Recap!

Another quick break from Murderbot posting to talk about OZ Comic Con Melbourne - of which I was there for half of Saturday but I had a lot of fun! If you make it to the end of this post there's a surprise (and some pics of my artist alley haul)

I wasn't tabling this one sadly so I went as a normal attendee (which is rare for me, these days?) I started the day off exhausted from not enough sleep with all my shit stuffed into my bag because I was too scared to cosplay on the train into the CBD lol (I went as an SCP Foundation Scientist)

I'm am absolutely in the background of some rando's tik tok live doing my best Murderbot itself impression (it was a pair of them and they would not stop screaming, and occasionally yelling "THANK YOU FOR THE ROSE")

I mostly hung out with a bunch of SCP foundation cosplayers and we went and bought some goodies from the LivingLewd booth (it's a local brand which is cool!) and wandered around together. Saw some cosplay mutuals I hadn't seen since a few events ago, it was really lovely catching up! It's always wild when I see people in full MTF tac gear wearing something I've made ;_;

The Anime Girl sticker I got is huge (it's a great car window decal) but I'm not sure if I'm bold enough to put it on my actual car. I'm tempted though. Won't lie.

While I was waiting around outside as lunch plans were being organised (and I was zoning out feeling intimidated by the crowds) one of the friends of the SCP group turned and stared at me dead on and told me she thought I was pretty.

I inflicted mass psychic damage on the SCP Cosplay community (and friends) who are all gen z, when they found how old I was (I am a millennial-z cusper).

One asked my age, I told the group to guess. One got it right, I pointed at him, his jaw dropped and he said "IT WAS A JOKE!" everyone looked at me like I'd just told them I'd killed a man (none of them believed me, apparently I look younger) We were in the middle of Maccas at the time. They were all very loud (and demanded proof lol)

While we were just hanging out, discussing a sign relating to cosplay courtesy, some weird old woman came and took a photo of us, got angry when we said "hey you didn't ask?" and told us "you didn't even smile in the photo" which was like, prophetic timing. We all had a sensible chuckle about how the universe manifested us a living example of what not to do.

I then split to go speedrun the artist alley cause I was running out of time, and very luckily ran into two friends I was hoping to find. One was cosplaying Ghost (CoD) and the other was Biker (Hotline Miami) and we were stopped every 2 meters because someone wanted a photo of Ghost and it was fucking awesome. We kept joking about how far we'd get before we were stopped again. It was like clockwork.

I visited the table of an artist I deeply admire and when they saw me they said "It's you! the CEO of SCP!" and I was like haha yes I'm in scientist/site manager cosplay then they told me they loved my art and I was like W H A T

Screaming, crying, throwing up over the fact I'm now a minor list celebrity in the Australian artist alley as that one SCP person.

I visited a bunch of friends, had some lovely (but sadly brief) chats with peers and got some sweet goodies.

From @gritrook I missed out on a hot ticket item (an incredible Cad Bane zine) but I got there in time to snag this delightful zine that's chockers full of fantastic sketches - if you love monsters and you're not following her what are you DOING - get on it! So much more cool stuff is coming from her.

From hommie_ya I got one of the most unique charms I've ever picked up - made out of a real minidisk and I'm OBSESSED. It's so pretty and iridescent in real life. Photos do not do this justice. Each one is unique and it's such a creative idea.

I can thank ShadowRealmCo for my Site Manager badge and I grabbed one of her new magnets, she sent me a sneak peak of these bad boys and I'm so happy to say I helped inspire its creation! Next time I'm gonna have to go after all the new Resident Evil stuff she's doing because it's SO GOOD!

From my home-city legend DanielAngArt I got this gorgeous print I've been eyeing off and this perfect sticker. The phonebooth reference is from somewhere in Freo, back in WA and knowing that made this all the sweeter to me. It'd been far too long since I last saw him so I was SO grateful to get to catch up. What a bloody legend. It's nice to have a sort of piece of home with me here.

From minute_sarah I grabbed a humble haul of things I've been plotting to grab, including one of her new chao mystery boxes and god I'm so happy with the one I got! She's a fellow Sonic Adventure 2 enjoyer and her work is stunning. I'm gonna have to go for the whole chao collection now.

Last but certainly in no way least, this one's actually a gift from a cosplay mutual and friend herb_cooker_ and I'm not sure what I've done to deserve this thoughtfulness and kindness but I'm obsessed with this - it's glittery and the weird orbs in it look like eyeballs and when they said "I tried to find something that's your thing" I went ballistic when they handed me THIS. Like holy shit yes, thank you, it's perfect.

To cap it all off, here's the surprise, a rare but fun piece of photographic evidence. Pics or it didn't happen. riotvvitch found me in front of a friends table and we started excitedly yelling at each other, the vibes were immaculate. Look how much fun we're both having. (Massive thank you to Shaymonade for taking the photo, I don't get enough photos of myself at events)

Bonus (I don't know what this means but it has 173 in it. So.)

I swear I was just pulling that face for the photo op - character commitment. Dr. Sattler is a pissed off middle manager. Shy is just pissed off, no longer working in middle management.

I had a lot of fun, holy shit. It really reinvigorated me and I was devastated I didn't make more time to hang out with people more. It was so refreshing and I walked away with such a full heart, everyone I spoke to was so kind and so lovely and I don't know how I've gotten this lucky to be able to call so many incredible people my friends.

I'm so hyped for the next event, and I'm fired up to maybe dabble in some more serious cosplays too eventually.

I've been in a slump lately, but man, this was good for my brain.

Short skirt (sugar mama Lin Beifong x sugar baby reader)

Minors just go away 🤣

Lin takes her favorite girl shopping and things get a little spicy when they get home. Also special guest Asami and Korra are here 💖 (I’m tempted to do an Asami cosplay I feel like 1. Id look hot asf and 2. My bf would be drooling)

“This is the eighth store love.” Lin said with a sigh. “I'm not leaving till I find a short skirt in my size.” I said. “Do you really need it?” Lin asked. I turned away from the rack and looked at Lin. “Summer is starting and I’m not gonna just wear shorts and dresses all summer. I need more in my closet.” I told her. “You mean my closet.” Lin said. I glared at her while she smirked. “You know I can always go back to my old apartment building.” I said and stuck out my tongue. Lin gently grabbed my face and squeezed my cheeks. “That’s not our arrangement.” Lin said.

I shrugged. I’m chief Beifong’s sugar baby and we agreed that I live with her, go on dates, help her keep the house clean, make lunch for her and of course have sex with her. I can’t complain because I get shopping trips and anything else I want. I get shown off as if I’m her girlfriend but I’m not. I’m just her sugar baby nothing more nothing less but I won’t lie I enjoy my time with Lin a lot. Lin let go of my face and I went back to looking for skirts. I felt like I was looking for hours. I mean I have been but now I’m just over it! I’ve been finding a lot of other cute things that I of course I picked up but still not what I’m looking for.

I’m gonna lose my mind. “Come here.” Lin said and dragged me over to a table. I looked at the table and they were full of skirts. I scanned the skirts and picked up a few. Lin grabbed a black one and handed it to me, I took it from her. Reading the tag it said it was mine and I pulled at it to see if it stretched and it did but not by a lot but more than enough for me. I let Lin hold it for me while I grabbed a few more in different styles. When I was done we made our way to the register. Lin paid for everything of course and we definitely don’t need to talk about how much money was spent.

As we made our way out the store I saw Asami and Korra. Korra was holding a lot of bags. I assume they are on a shopping trip like us. “Asami!” I called. Asami turned her head to my direction and she smiled real big. “Hey!” She shouted. We ran to each other and hugged. “I’m glad I caught you, I’m having a party next week. You guys have to be there.” Asami said with a big smile on her face. “Of course we’ll be there.” I told her. Asami and I continued to talk some more. “I see you got sucked into a shopping trip as well.” I heard Korra say to Lin. Lin just huffed. “The things we do for love.” Korra said.

Asami laughed at Korra’s comment. “You know I love you very much.” Asami told Korra then gave her a kiss. I felt a slight twinge in my heart. Korra and Asami love each other more than anything and everything they do is out of love and yes I’m jealous. I can’t help it. “We should go to lunch.” Asami said and grabbed my hand. “We should.” I agreed. “I know that’s not a badger mole stuffed animal hanging out your bag.” Korra teased. “Oh hush leave me be.” I said. “Aww that’s so cute, I need to find a polar bear dog stuffed animal.” Asami said. “You should! It would be so cute for you to have.” I said.

Asami looked at Korra. “It’ll be our baby.” Asami laughed. I gasped and looked at Lin. “No.” Lin said. “Yes, this badger mole is our baby and we have to figure out a name for her.” I told Lin. Lin sighed. “What restaurant are we eating at? I'm starving over here.” Korra told us. “Oh right umm where do you guys wanna go?” I asked. “We’re going to the noodle shop near my job.” Lin said and grabbed my hand to drag me away. “See you guys there!” I called as Lin dragged me away. Once the bags were put in the backseat we got into the car and I sat in the passenger seat.

“Thank you for taking me shopping.” I said sweetly then kissed her cheek. “You’re welcome hon.” Lin told me as she started up her car. As Lin drove she kept her hand on my thigh, sometimes she drew little circles or just rubbed my thigh. She gave me butterflies and I loved it. Every touch made my heart melt. I kept stealing glances at Lin. “What is it love?” She asked me. “Nothing, just looking at your beautiful face.” I said. She just smiled. She’s just so hot. I looked away because I could feel myself getting horny. I don’t know what it is about this woman but she drives me crazy.

Lin parked outside the shop then got out of the car, I unbuckled myself while she walked over to my side. She opened the door for me and helped me out. “Thank you baby.” I said. Lin nodded and held my hand. We entered the little shop and saw Korra and Asami waiting at a table. “I’m surprised we beat you guys here.” Asami said. “You know Lin has to drive the speed limit.” I teased. “Maybe you need to start driving.” Korra said. “I’m a passenger princess, I don't drive.” I said. “I’ll teach you.” Korra said. “Absolutely not.” Lin said sternly.

“Oh come on, Lin , I'm an excellent driver.” Korra said. “You drive eighty miles per hour.” Lin said. “I’ll teach you.” Asami said. “You ran over Mako.” Lin said. “I apologized.” Asami said. I laughed. “Then you teach her.” Korra said. “I’m too busy.” Lin said. “I feel like she’d yell at me a lot.” I said. “Oh yeah she definitely will.” Korra said. “Did you figure out a name for your baby?” Asami asked. “No, what do you think I should name her?” I asked. “Name her noodle.” Korra suggested. “No name her tea.” Asami said. I gasped. “I got it! Her name is Detective Tofu Noodle.” I said.

“I love that.” Asami gushed. “Detective?” Lin asked. “Do you have a problem?” I asked. “I’m just confused on how your little badger mole became a detective.” Lin said. “She’s our daughter and she just wants to be like her big brother Mako.” I said. “Stop saying Mako is my son.” Lin sighed. “Ok but he’s called you mom like three times and you didn’t get upset.” Korra said. “Exactly.” I said. Lin rolled her eyes. When it came time to order I let Lin order for me. She knows what I like and I just like her taking control like this.

After our lunch double date we went home and I decided to try on the black skirt Lin picked out. I slipped it on and it fit perfectly. “Wow.” I said. I went out to the living room to show Lin. “Baby look,” I stood in front of her. “You look good.” Lin told me as she looked me up and down. “I’m gonna go try on the others.” I said as I turned around and walked back to the room. Before I could grab another skirt I felt a hand grab my ass. “Lin.” I gasped. “Take these off.” Lin said as she reached under my skirt and started to pull down my underwear. I helped her take off my panties.

I reached to take off my skirt but Lin stopped me. “No, keep that on.” She told me. I raised a brow. “On the bed, ass up.” Lin commanded. I did as told and as soon as I got into position I felt my skirt go up and then a harsh slap on my ass. I let out a loud moan. “Spread your legs some more.” Lin told me. Once my legs were spreaded more Lin’s tongue swiped at my folds. “Mmm baby.” I let out a soft moan. As she ate me out she spanked me. “Oh fuck Lin.” I whined out.

Living Fiction - Chapter 1

This story was written for @hazyconstellationss as a part of the Good Omens Reference Library Discord Server Gift Exchange. Hello @hazyconstellationss, this is your secret demon trying to tempt you into dropping everything to read this now. 😉

You gave me the prompts for a human AU where florist Crowley gives writer Aziraphale a gift and somehow that turned into this little story of two idiots pining over each other. I hope you like it! This is my first ever AU and I had a ton of fun writing it, so thank you very much for that fabulous prompt! 💜

Thank you to the GO Reference Library for setting up this gift exchange.💜

Thank you to my wonderful friends and fellow writers at @whickberstreetwriters for friendship and moral support and especially to @rcreveal, @playdohangel, @bohoteacher, @angie-words and @sixshotsinatumbllr (and for this chapter specifically @rcreveal, @playdohangel, @bohoteacher, @sixshotsinatumbllr) for phenomenal beta reading, fun comments, helpful insights and wonderful ideas on how to improve this. And for fixing spelling and especially grammatical errors aplenty. 😁 Couldn't have done it without you.💜

Also thank you to my lovely daughter who went above and beyond when I handed her my iPad and pen and asked her for a quick digital drawing of a plant to use as a cover for a story. Two hours later I had this little masterpiece you see below. Yes, I may be laying it on a bit thick here with the praise, but I am a very proud mom of a very talented 9-year-old, so I think I may be permitted a bit of gushing. 😊

(If you see this, Mausi: Hab dich lieb! And don't go to my AO3 account. You are nine, that's not the right place for you. Especially not because you go 'eeewww' every time you see me kissing Papa.😂)

Summary

For two years self-published romance writer Azariah Fell has been coming to this café, three times a week on a schedule. He likes to work there, with easy access to refreshing hot drinks and delicious pastries, and always sits at the same table, directly at the window with the street right in view. And if he is honest, it's the view that he's coming for - but not of the street.

Right across the street is the florist shop 'Serpens et Horto', and the proprietor Anthony Crowley keeps drawing his eyes. Azariah regularly finds himself buying plants and flowers at that shop, even though he had known nothing about plants when he first came to this café. So, is it really a surprise when one of the main characters in his latest book has a striking resemblance to Anthony Crowley?

Excerpt

It wasn’t like he was staring at the man, like a creep or a weirdo or anything. He was just idly gazing out his shop’s window when he had nothing better to do, and that table just happened to be right across from it. And that was simply right where the man was. Three times a week. He was hard to miss with his pale hair and old-fashioned clothing. Waistcoat over a button-up shirt, a bow-tie and even braces. During the summer when the man had opened his waistcoat to evade a heatstroke, Crowley supposed, he had seen them peek out. Like he was cosplaying a bloody librarian. And those tiny reading glasses sitting low on his dainty, pointy, upturned nose were ridiculous - and bizarrely charming.

“Is he back again?” Warlock had come up behind him while Crowley had not been staring at the man across the street.

“Hmm? Oh, him,” Crowley said in an attempt to salvage the situation. Pining after a man didn’t fit his image.

But apparently he couldn’t even fool a tween. “So, have you asked him out yet?”

“No,” he answered with a sigh, crossing his arms over his chest. Crowley didn’t even know his name, for fuck’s sake. “Not that it’s any of your business,” he added, growling, when he realised that might have sounded slightly pathetic.

“Really don’t know what you’re waiting for,” Warlock went on, obviously unperturbed.

Crowley knew. Kind of. He wasn’t even sure if the man was truly interested - or just really liked plants. As often as he came in here to buy one. His flat must be a veritable green house by now. Or maybe he was simply terrible at keeping them alive. If that was the case, he would actually be morally obligated to stop selling him plants, wasn’t like they could defend themselves.

But those times when the man came into ‘Serpens et Horto’ were the only chances Crowley got to talk to him. He enjoyed talking to him and used every opportunity he got. And still, he didn’t even know his name. Somehow, he just never found a good enough reason to ask for his name. The man certainly knew his name, though, not that it was difficult with Crowley wearing a name tag.

“You know,” Warlock continued, “men your age really shouldn’t hesitate on these things. It’s not like you have time to waste.”

“Men my–!” Crowley swatted at Warlock, who jumped out of range just in time, laughing. Fucking reflexes of youth. “I’m 45, not half dead!”

I have been low key kicking the idea of cosplaying Telma from Twilight Princess. There’s a lot of TP representation at cons I go to, I’m convinced it’s a Switch 2 game, and idk, I’ve never really been tempted to do an NPC and she looks like she could be fun. Plus, she has a cat.

So I’ve been breaking down her clothing, and I can handle the skirt, the apron and I’m willing to give her under things a stab, but she has an insane overcoat that I can barely wrap my head around, construction wise, even after extensive discussions with more knowledgeable friends.

I’ve already decided that this isn’t a competition piece. It’s going to be for fun.

And then my friend Tara, who is a professional costume maker in Southern California- she has worked on Star Wars shows, among other things- tells me she is opening up for comissions. I threw that damn coat at her immediately and she went !!!!!!! I have perfect fabric for that !!!!

So now I need to actually think about this rather than just go of yeah, that would be fun.

Also planning on making Louise (the cat) but she is going to double as a bag of holding.

Paid Gerard to make her coffee maker battery operated, and now she brings it everywhere

He’s the one keeping people at gay bars from getting roofied by creeps

Teaches meditation at the youth center

He gets hit on by the single dads, A LOT

Back in the day, he stole a police motorcycle and painted it rainbow. He passes out autographed copies of his mugshot because it’s such a good photo

His kids went to spy on his date with M. Monlataing and he pretended he didn’t notice

He passes mini water bottles to protesters since it’s ninety degrees out and he doesn’t want them dying of thirst despite everything

But, he does it with this smirk like, “Looks like I’m the bigger person here, losers. Namaste.”

Day 14: Blood-Stained Tiles

AO3 link

(I call this one: ‘My New Roommate is an Immortal Cultivator?!’)

Shen Yuan had been looking forward to the convention. He had brought tickets months ago, marked out on the map where all his favourite fanartists would be selling merch, and had eaten a large meal before setting out so he wouldn’t be tempted by overpriced vending machine food. He had wandered through the stands for a few hours, picking up some posters and fancomics as he went, and taking some photos of cosplayers, until the convention came to a close. There was a lot more Proud Immortal Demon Way fanart going around now — with the sudden surge it had in popularity after the Immortal Alliance Conference arc, it was to be expected, and Shen Yuan was looking forward to the new readers catching up to the latest chapters of the Abyss arc and making fanart for it.

He had just left the building when he heard the disturbance, and his head twisted towards the sound — almost missing the woman in a somewhat revealing outfit running past him in a panic. Freezing for a moment, he wondered if he should run as well, before he spotted a body slumped on the ground ahead of him, not moving. It was late and the area was usually a quiet one after work hours, so no one else was around to help… He rushed over to him without really thinking. Wasn’t that what you were meant to do? Well, if he died, at least he might get a segment on the local news.

The slumped over figure turned out to be a man, one wearing an ornate xianxia cosplay. It had to be homemade with the level of detail, and Shen Yuan felt oddly jealous of it. What was more concerning was the bloodstain quickly spreading across the fine green fabric, some of it dripping down onto the stone tiles of the path beneath them. Shen Yuan fought back the panic as he tried to remember what little he knew about first aid — he should apply pressure to the wound to try and stop the bleeding, right?

As he pressed down the man seemed to notice him for the first time — he really had a handsome face, and Shen Yuan wondered if he was an actor he didn’t know — only to try and push him away.

“Who are you?” he asked with an odd intensity.

“Um” said Shen Yuan. “My name is Shen Yuan. Did you get stabbed?”

The man nodded solemnly — really, if he wasn’t an actor already, Shen Yuan would volunteer to be his agent — before explaining that he’d seen a man harassing a woman about her clothing, and had stepped in to help, only to discover that the man was armed with a knife. He hadn’t reacted fast enough to avoid it, but luckily the man had run away after the first stab.

Shen Yuan felt that he was being a bit too casual about attempted murder, but maybe it was shock?

“Do you need me to call an ambulance? You’re bleeding a lot, it’ll probably need stitches…”

“Oh no,” said the man, seemingly unaware of the bombshell he was about to drop on Shen Yuan, “I’m a cultivator. Whatever brought me here might have disrupted my qi, but I’ll be fine once I have a chance to stabilise it”.

Shen Yuan froze. Could this be — no, he needed evidence first.

“… if you’re a cultivator, can you show me something that only a cultivator could do?”

The man — Shen Yuan suddenly realised he never asked his name — smiled, something like approval in his eyes, although Shen Yuan couldn’t guess why, and lifted up his hand — only for some of the leaves on the hedge lining the pathway to snap off, dancing around them in a flurry of green. Shen Yuan could barely bring himself to speak — this was really… an actual reverse transmigrator! Right before him!

“I just realised I never asked… what’s your name?”

The cultivator — a real life cultivator! — paused for a moment before introducing himself.

“My name is Shen Jiu.”

(Note: if you think SJ is being too nice here — he currently thinks SY is a girl because he’s a self-described pretty boy and SJ doesn’t know the cultural standards of this new world yet. Also the blood loss).

[zeldamomoe]

My partner and I debuted Seonhee and Kiryu from Yakuza this weekend! I didn't think I'd ever cosplay from Yakuza, but when I played 0 - 7 a couple years ago and fell in love with Seonhee in 7, I closet cosplayed her during my 7 streams. When 8/Infinite Wealth came out in February, I decided to just watch it because I didn't enjoy the gameplay too much in 7, and just don't have time for them anymore since they're so much longer. But I love the characters so much and wanted to know what happens! Thank goodness they're fully English voiced now, so it was easy to just watch it all over a few weeks!! And omg!! Seonhee being a huge Kiryu fangirl got me thinking…. What if I got my closet Seonhee cosplay a bit more accurate and have Raph be Kiryu 😂 HE IS UNCANNY. And now I'm really tempted to do Kaoru Sayama and have Raph do normal outfit Kiryu because 2 is my favorite ❤️ I'm so glad people recognized us too. We even got to take some pics at our favorite Japanese restaurant like for their Drink Link hehe �� I love them so much 🥺

Kirishima’s Mystique:Hail to the Queen!

Life had a funny way of working out sometimes and for the sturdy chivalrous himbo we know as Eijiro Kirishima? It seemed to go out of its way to set him up in certain situations. Well life snd the whims of certain people who felt like genuine absolute unit nice guys like him deserved the damn world but I digress. Now what had our resident sturdy himbo so nervous yet feeling the tingles of anticipation all over?

Well you see it had to do with his current situation, what he'd been expecting to be another little round of quality time with his 2 kinky as all fuck girlfriends on their cozy private beach spot. Only to find he had company as he had been busy setitng up their camping spot as the duo went out to catch some waves together to surf. As standing before him was what would only be considered his second ever Close Encounter of the 3rd kind in the form of a thicc, curvy hot piece of Onyx ass many knew as the Queen of Mars herself. Ty'rahnee, the one and only clad in a rather fitting ensemble of a gold swimsuit that went quite fittingly with her unique body.

What a body it was, a seemingly living shape of shadow and ink given the form of an absolute bombshell wet dream brought to life. Her onxy skin glistening with sweat as she gave a friendly wink and a wave his way. He could hardly believe the queen of Mars of all people was here now of all times. Oh sure it'd been in the history books for years that life had been discovered thriving on Mars and diplomatic relations had been long well sicne established with the red planet.

Not to mention the news headlines had been running stories that the Queen had been said to be making visits as the self appointed ambassador of her people and maintain said relations. But to think she'd be coming to a simple beach like this and in such a scandalous outfit that practically exposed a body that would give Mineta such a major erection that there was no doubt he would die of blood loss. The shark-teethed redhead gulping nervously as he watched the Martian Queen lay down her beach rug, her backside to him as she was bending over in a way that made her fat black onyx bubble butt present itself to him. Those twin botty cheeks shaking and jiggling as they clapped with an enticing, sensually infectious rhythm.

It made Kirishima sweat as he felt his libido manifest in the form of chino versions of Mina and Maya popping up as his shoulder angel and devil. Or rather some weird combination cosplay of angel and devil costumes as they whispered naughty words and ideas to out into his had, tempting and teasing him to give in and go wild on the Martian Queen and show her what an earth man would be capable of doing to rock her world. Causing his red eyes to stay locked in that glorious set of thunder buns of hers who called to him with their siren song of their hypnotic jiggling and clapping. Face blushing to a degree thst made his hair look pale as the blood rushed to his loins, risking a prominent bulge to form in his swim shorts.

All the while Tyr’rahnee, seemingly unaware of the affect she was having in the chivalrous ikemen as she finished setting up her mat. Laying down on her knees as she took what he could see just had to be a bottle of tanning lotion and popped it open. Reaching around to pour a more than generous coating on her masterpiece of an ass, making those meat buns glisten in the sun before she suddenly held out and passed the bottle into his hands. Shooting him a flirty wink as she began to strip off the lower portions of her swimsuit, leaving herself bottomless, undoing her bikini top as she held both his curiosity and attention in the most erotic ways.

QT:”Mm, pardon me sir but would you be so kind as to rub me down? I can’t quite reach my own back after all and you seem more than capable and trust worthy. And please, do be as thorough as you can possibly be….”*The Martian queen requested in a sensual and husky tone you’d not really expect of someone of her station and status. Yet here she was, going from Wearing a scandalous swim to suddenly being naked before a complete stranger like himself. Wanting to be coated and rubbed down in tanning lotion and reslly how could he say no? It was like he suddenly found himself in some sort of nature documentary snd the subject was a Martian female courting attention for mating season.*

Kirishima:”Uhm yeah sure, no problem….”*The chibi devil angels Mina and Maya high-fived with delight and victory to see their man give into his libido. Taking the bottle as he poured some lotion into his hands before he moved to kneel beside the extra-terrestrial hottie, moving towards the middle of her back. Only for the onyx bodied hottie to shake her magnificent ass which was demanding to be groped and massaged. Figuring it’d be better to to oblige her rather than protest as he planted his hands on that lotion coated set of meat buns.*

The Martian queen let out a sensual, deep throated purr of a moan as she felt Kirishima get to work. His firm, skilled hands groping and squeezing that bubbly booth of hers as as it became all sleek and slippery. A waterfall forming between her legs as he worked his way down along her legs, making her giggle as she felt her feet tickled but oooh how aroused she felt when he worked her hips and thighs. The latter especially with his hands drifting so close towards her crotch, her pussy gushing with anticipation of such close contact.

As Kirishima made his way to working lotion onto her back, Tyr’ahnee couldn’t help herself as she stuck out her oiled up booty against his crotch. The sturdy hero nervous but keeping calm and focused as can be as he massaged the onyx bodied Beauty’s back, even as she began to bump and grind her glorious ass against the growing bulge forming in his swim shorts. Oh there wasn’t any doubt she could tell that he was getting aroused and it turned her on to know it. Especially knowing she was the cause of making him so horny as it made her want him to really go wild.

So of course she made quite a show as she gave husky, deep throated sensual moans whenever Kirishima hit a sweet spot on her back. The pulse and twitch of his cock contained within his swim-shorts being felt by her booty as it made her pussy gush and quiver with growing desire. To make this absolute unit of a man let loose and unleash his lust upon her, sate his urges with her pornographic body, queen or no queen!! It was frustrating to have a bidy like she did and the libido to match yet no man ever even dared show they were aroused, not even some of her own!!

Oh but this man, she could tell his willpower and restraint were cracking and all he needed was a little more persuasion. A little more nudging towards giving into those primal instincts of his when she felt she had just the opportunity to do so present itself. Feeling him cease his efforts as he had finished her back, she grinned a hidden grin as she pried her booty away from his groin, rolling around to now kay on her back. Presenting her naked front before him, her tits and her mound exposed before his crimson eyes, purring as she could see the tent he now pitched in his shorts.

QT:”Mmm such a gentleman, I’m sure you’ll do just as thoroughly on the front, won’t you? You seem like you have the right tool and everything.” *She teased and praised in a sensual, husky tone as she moved her feet to press and rub his erection. Toes pinching and tugging at the waistband of his shorts as she purred with erotic thirst.* “And seems only right I return the favour, wouldn’t want such a fine body like yours getting sunburnt now would we?” *The onyx extra terrestrial giggled with delight as she spread legs, her juicy thighs looking so warm and inviting. Her eyes twinkling with want and mischief as she awaited his response.*

Kirishima of course dint keep her waiting too long as he gave her the kind of response she had been hoping for. Watching his face shift to one of determination and a slight hunger that made her spine tingle, as she watched him pull down and remove his swim shorts. Making her coo with delight and awe at the sight of his now exposed cock and balls, his length and girth stiff and hard as a flagpole as it twitched and pulsed with the intent that could be called Down to Fuck. Her arousal skyrocketing as she watched him pour a coating of the tanning oil onto his shaft before she moved to take some into her hands as she found him mounting and straddling her torso.

As soon as he did so, she found his shaft placing itself between the valley of her magnificent tits like a hot dog into a bun to which she glsdly began to squeeze and massage it, commencing with a splendid titfuck. Pumping snd thrusting his hips in response before he found her taking his fuckrod onto her hidden mouth as he felt the warmth and wetness of saliva and a very skilled tongue. Taking those bouncy melons onto his grasp as he began to rub oil onto them, leaving her hands now free to star caressing and massaging his muscular sculpted body with the slick, slippery stuff. If anyone else were at this particular private spot, there was no doubt social media and the rumour mill would abound from witnesses of the Queen of Mars getting erotic with a future pro hero in the making.

But of course there wasn’t which left the pair free to enjoy one another, unhindered and uninhibited with no shame as their oily titfuck/blowjob combo soon shifted into high gear. Their oiled bodies glistening in the sun as they were going at like animals, the Martian beauty bouncing in his lap as she rode him in reverse cowgirl, her back pressed against his sculpted physique’s front, her booty jiggling in his lap as she moaned deeply. Her stomach swelling with hips deeply his length and girth penetrated her, his strong, manly hands massaging her meaty thighs or groping those bouncing tits of hers. Loving every second of it as she found him putting any and very man she’d been with prior sexually to shame.

Naturally her appraisal of him only rose higher, along with her arousal as he proved his virility and prowess, his staying power sand stamina of course having a handy bonus boost from his fun little secret trick with his quirk. Relishing each and every position from the dominating mating press to the primal doggy style and ooh to think he would be so daring enough as to facefuck and even give her anal!! But oh the sheer absolute thrill when he would cum inside her, raw and bareback as such a fine alpha male cock should be enjoyed. Vast amounts of warm white baby batter flooding her womb as she felt her inner walls painted white.

but of course Kirishima never let her cum down from the sexual high, maintaining momentum as he kept fucking her over and over to which she found absolutely exhilarating. Currently in the intimate position of seated as she hugged and held his head between her glorious tits as she continued bouncing her sloppy wet pussy on his jackhammering cock. Shooting a wink and a smile at Mina and Maya hidden in the bushes, who watched the show with voyeuristic delight as they awaited a chance to make a move and turn this secret scandalous rut into a foursome, silently thanking the duo for arranging her this little liaison. They weren’t kidding when they said their boyfriend was such a stud that he could make a queen feel like a goddess.

Of course they had to promise no pictures or anything, after all a queen needed her secrets and besides which this was giving Maya new ideas for how they could troll Mineta. The Martian queen had been one of his prime sexual fantasies for years so the idea of Kirishima tapping that ass would make him livid. Hey nothing made their day like making the grape head suffer and how sweet it is. Oh so very sweet.

🎞️ STAR WARS ALTERNATE ARC — THE LEGEND THEY NEVER DARED WRITE A Blacksite Literature™ Transmission (For the writers who still believe in stakes.)

—

Let’s talk about the biggest missed opportunity in modern myth.

Rey should’ve fallen.

Not like “tempted by the dark side” fallen. I mean fallen. Fully. Beautifully. Horrifically. Turned. Twisted. Crowned by the same shadow her grandfather cast. A Sith Empress. No apology. No redemption arc.

That’s the story.

Not because it’s “edgy.” But because it’s true. To lineage. To myth. To what Star Wars used to be.

—

Let’s break it down.

Palpatine has a granddaughter. She’s strong in the Force. Gifted. Alone. Untrained. Unmoored. She finds out she’s the heir of the darkest force in galactic history…

…and what happens?

A hug. A lightsaber handoff. A motivational speech about choice.

Come on.

That moment should’ve cracked the galaxy in half. It should’ve haunted her. Corrupted her. Reshaped her. Not into a “dark Rey” dream sequence — but a new villain. Not Kylo-lite. Not edgy-but-saved.

A true villain.

—

Because here’s the thing:

Evil shouldn’t only be for the angsty boys. Tragedy shouldn’t only belong to male leads. Falling isn’t about gender — it’s about power, and what it costs.

Rey could’ve been a Shakespearean collapse. She could’ve become the threat. She could’ve made Finn rise.

Instead, she became an aesthetic.

—

Now imagine this instead:

Years later, Jedi temples lie in ruin. Rumors swirl of a woman in black who bends the Force with ease. She’s not Supreme Leader. Not Empress. Just Rey.

No title. Just fear.

And Finn? He’s the only one who knew her before the fall. He trains in secret. He builds from nothing. Not to rule — but to stop her.

Because she loved him once. And he still does.

But the galaxy doesn’t have time for old feelings. Only fire.

—

That’s your trilogy.

Not a nostalgia remix. Not a corporate checklist. A myth. A wound. A story that means something.

Because tragedy, when done right, lives forever.

—

This isn’t about “dark for the sake of dark.” It’s about truth.

The truth that some bloodlines curse you. That some love stories end in war. That sometimes the only way to honor the past is to burn it down.

Rey could’ve redefined villainy. Finn could’ve redefined heroism.

Instead… We got cosplay and catchphrases.

—

This is your open call, Disney.

You want the next trilogy to matter? Let it hurt. Let it surprise. Let it scar.

The fans are grown now. We’re not scared of darkness — we crave stories that make us feel.

So go ahead. Call if you’re serious. But the second you say “girlboss,” the line goes dead.

"Say, so let's say this whole dream shtick is a classic case of that 'if a tree falls, does it make a sound', yatta yatta, right?" There's a pause as he threads the last of his thought together. "Wouldn't this existing but unheard sound be the proper thing to focus on? Seein' how the 'trees' like your advanced cosplay worked as one pain in the side life lesson."

"Oh, trying to be philosophical are we, trash panda?" Amusing that he'd hit her with something philosophical to break the ice between them. She was too tempted to try passing off as Sampo again, see if he'd fall for that trick twice in a row, which would be extremely hilarious if he did, but he's not that blind, right?

"Say you do focus on it, but what then? Would it change the outcome that the tree had fallen, or is currently falling? Would you somehow miraculously save the tree from certain death if you knew?" Of course she's going to say something both specific and absurd in turn. Her logic isn't the most sound, sometimes veering into the absurdity, after all.

At least he's now trying to see the devil in the details with this thought process of his. That means she doesn't have to knock him out again just to see what's going on in the real Dreamscape.

And of course she's not really required to give him a straight answer either.

"Advanced cosplay? Aww, you still salty that your good ol' friend, 'Sampo' managed to knock you and your silver haired damsel out?"

Hudson and Rex S03E02 - Manhunt

I can't really say that this episode lives up to the title. Not that it's bad, the title is just inaccurate. There's also a bit more Charlie backstory.

I believe the actor who plays Danny is the guy who will be in the new St. Pierre show.

How long has that guy been unconscious?

I'm trying to decide if sending Sarah to cozy up with the Danny's pregnant wife to get information is a dick move or not.

Sarah: *explains Onion routing* Joe: I'm surrounded by nerds. Jesse: Nerds unite!

I'm having a hard time believing that Rex's nose or ears didn't pick up that Danny was right behind Charlie and didn't alert him in time. Not to mention that Charlie was also on high alert. He should have heard him himself.

"Damn. This shit again."

"The dog goes in there". And then Rex takes a look and turns to Danny like, "Fuck no, it's dirty" lol

"These are terrible accommodations! I want to speak to your manager!"

"I can't even bark? This is fascism."

So grade 8 is apparently for 12-13year olds. We don't have the same system here, our 8th grade corresponds to the grade 13-14year olds would go to, because kindergarten is not counted among school years, and used to be non-compulsory at least when I was a kid (that's probably changed now).

Once more, Charlie has to give up his gun and handcuffs.

Not the phone!

Like hell I'd leave my phone at a sketchy place that cosplays as a club. These people are nuts.

Now, that's HD lol

"I was framed." "You and half the prison population." Snarky Charlie under duress is back.

"I'm gonna prove you wrong," he says while he has taken a cop hostage and points a gun at him (and has another one locked in a room, I'm not forgetting about Rex).

"I'm asked to solve cases based on the tiniest pieces of evidence and do you know what my biggest fear is? It's that I'll make a mistake. That someone innocent will spend a part of their life in jail because of me". Can you tell that this season is post BLM movement? I mean, I don't want to throw too much shade on this show, because every cop show did the same thing and most of them ended up with the characters sounding off. Also, right before that, Charlie told her to get whatever she could about Danny from Lyn, so...

One of the many phones that have been sacrificed to solve a case.

Some of what Jesse explains about the tech they were using to steal from people is factual, and the rest is garbage.

Sarah: "Identity theft. Or, sorry, would you prefer the term social engineering?" Jesse: "Well, now you're just showing off." Okay, just tone it down a bit.

I'd forgotten how many times Danny had threatened to shoot Rex. I like him less now.

Danny: Where the hell is he? Rex: Look up, asshole.

"Who is that, friend of yours?" He shot at him, Charlie.

Charlie called someone else stubborn! Pot, meet kettle.

That's a good look. But I guess we need a tie with the suit in case we have to triage someone.

"You're gonna hand me over?" "It's tempting." "Wouldn't be the first time". The plot thickens. Or Charlie's backstory, anyway.

So Charlie and Danny had stolen something from a store at one time, they got blamed when I'm guessing there was another theft incident in the same store and the store owner had called the cops on them, Charlie had told his dad about it and that they hadn't stolen anything, his dad believed him and convinced the owner but he also told Danny's dad who was abusive. And Charlie didn't know the last part, and he never talked to Danny again. Having seen Charlie's dad now, I could see him asking Charlie to cut off ties with Danny. Anyway, it's pretty funny to think of Charlie as a troublemaker.

The most unrealistic part about all this is that people heard the gunshot with the music blasting.

Once again, Sarah arrives at the right time to be taken hostage.

Charlie's inner monologue: Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck-

Sometimes the show is telling us loudly that Sarah is the woman Charlie likes and others, like this one, they do it subtly. For the non-believers (not that it matters anymore), there is no reason for Sarah to be in this scene. Sarah just goes along with Lyn because Lyn is heavily pregnant. Lyn seems to be able to carry herself just fine and is, in fact, the one to drive them there. The reason they put Sarah in that scene is because Lyn is the woman Danny cares about and Sarah is the woman Charlie cares about. Note that Charlie would want to help Lyn or Danny anyway, so adding Sarah is just to show that parallel. And wisely, whoever wrote the script realized that to do so without having Sarah offer anything to the scene would put her in a damsel-in-distress position, so they have her disarm the bad guy after Rex's charge.

Guys, we really need a safeword for when someone is kidnapped.

RIP to the shot of Charlie and Sarah with their weapons drawn together. Why did no one think to hold the camera on them for a few seconds, why can't we have nice things?

"You okay?" "Yeah". He also wanted to say, "And you look so fucking hot with that shotgun," but he's a gentleman and this is a family show.

"Hey, I'm here too."

And a nice chase at the end to give Rex a proper takedown scene.

"You made me run."

"Claire could use some better clientele". She's a lawyer.

Subtle.

Is Buckshot more of a self insert or a separate oc?

Buckshot's more of a seperate OC, i tried starting her off as a self insert but when it came time to actually flesh out the charcter and give her powers and a story i was like yeah, i dont like you anymore, and now shes just an OC with a life and personality totally different than mine. I just cant write in any other perspective besides second and I hate myself for it. I wrote the damn story in a fever dream and posted it here in case anybody took a liking to it, and well they did, somehow.

We're going to ignore that I hacked myself bangs and dyed my hair to cosplay as her for the con in NJ (because I have absolutely no idea how to wear a wig, and altering my hair was a better option in my head) I'm regretting it immensely. This is worse than when I died my hair blue to cosplay another OC years ago and it turned GREEN.

I try not to cringe abt her starting off as a self insert and becoming a seperate OC, to be fair my favorite character Aizawa from MHA started off as a self-insert and morphed into a different character too. And hey, everybody loves him.

She's my favorite OC in my little OC box, sitting pretty next to Moondust and Apollo (my MHA ocs) if anybody remembers them, i honestly think i was so embarrassed back then that i deleted everything, and im tempted almost every day to do that with Buckshot too ngl... I'm just not good at making characters.
