masterlist

boyfriend!jeonghan who has been aware of joshua's crush on his pretty girlfriend for a while, never really minding it but also being unable to leave that piece of information alone.

jeonghan discreetly teasing joshua about his crush on you by constantly gushing about you in his presence.

from showing him the pretty selfies you send him to going even further by 'accidentally' swiping one too many times and allowing him a glimpse of some of the more risqué pictures you've sent him on lonely nights.

joshua who is usually hard for fluster being caught off guard every single time, always gulping at the sight or mention of anything above pg13 when it came to you.

jeonghan letting you in on his friend's crush and even inciting you to participate in his teasing.

your boyfriend insisting you spontaneously join in any time he hung out with joshua one on one, making joshua a third wheel (but not really).

insisting on taking pictures of you and joshua together under the fake vice of wanting to have a whole collection of pictures of his girlfriend and his best friend together because what could be better than his two favorite people in the same frame ??

leaving the two of you alone for extended periods of time just to imagine his friend's flustered state at being alone with you.

inviting you on tour with them, with you having to share a room with the two of them whenever the members were assigned roommates.

playing around with you at night, supposedly waiting until joshua fell asleep but being fully aware that he could hear your muffled gasps as he took care of you only one bed away from his.

insisting you join the boys at the pool, smirking at his best friend's widened eyes upon seeing you in a tiny swimsuit.

jeonghan consistently getting off on knowing how badly his friend wanted you but couldnt have you.

buying you and joshua matching things such as sweatshirts and phone cases, claiming he also got some for himself but conveniently 'forgetting' them, making it seem like you and joshua were the matching couple.

chuckling to himself whenever you'd take a page from his book and flirt with joshua just to get a reaction out of him.

catching joshua watching you suck him off one night, having pretended to be asleep and closing his eyes right back the moment he made eye contact with jeonghan.

jeonghan smirking at him regardless, playing up his moans for you now knowing for sure he'd been awake every single time.

both joshua and jeonghan being aware of what was happening, with you blissfully unaware as you sucked your boyfriend to completion.

jeonghan cumming harder than ever before, but doing nothing about the situation, simply choosing to shoot his friend a wink before pulling your unaware self into his arms for some sleep.

jeonghan's teasing amping up even more from then on, making you sit on joshua's lap whenever there was no more sitting space, claiming joshuji wouldnt mind.

getting all three of you to hold hands in crowded places, with you in the middle as jeonghan insisted that it was so you wouldnt get separated.

going as far as having the three of you cuddle on the couch as you watched a movie, removing himself from the middle at some point and somehow managing to get the two of you pressed against each other.

jeonghan beginning to realize how much gratification he'd get from seeing you and joshua together, knowing this type of contact from anyone else would anger him, but being content with it if it was his good joshuji.

"over here!"

"one more, just look here for a second, gorgeous!"

"are you going to be performing tonight?"

"when is the album dropping?"

the cameras flashed in your pretty face, and the reporters and paparazzi continued to yell out questions and take pictures of you as you walked down the carpet in a rush to get inside.

tonight was the oscars - it was a pretty big deal in hollywood, and as an a-list singer, you were invited to attend of course. yes, you were fresh onto the scene, so young you had barely finished high school by the time your name was being plastered in the tabloids, but now a few years later, you were a household name. your voice captured the hearts of many, and you were ever so grateful for your adoring fans.

after the release of your debut album, your fame skyrocketed. barely entering into your twenties, you already had multiple musical awards ranging from ama's to grammy's. there wasn't a person alive who didn't know your name. not only were you a talented singer who's voice hit octaves that could shatter glass, but you were a beauty icon.

with your iconic sense of style and that gorgeous face of yours, you weren't hard to miss. everything down to the last detail about you had many swooning, including some of the biggest names in hollywood. tonight, you wore a stunning, black, sultry gown custom made by vera wang herself, and matching black pumps that were from valentino. your stylist absolutely delivered on your hair and makeup so tonight - all eyes were on you.

you were rumoured to be performing at the oscars this year. the rumours had started to circulate a few weeks prior with fans getting all amped up about a possible performance from you. however, tonight you were just there to attend and look stunning on the carpet, as well as maybe catch up with some of your fellow celebrity friends. you weren't the type to step out onto every red carpet, so when you did, you made headlines.

as you stepped away from the flashing lights and the buzzing reporters, you finally made your way into the venue where the oscars were being held. this year, they had set things up a little differently than they usually did. most of the time, it was like a theatre of some kind. rows and rows of seating like you would see in the movie theatres, but this year, they switched it up. instead of the normal seating arrangements, they had cloth covered round tables with name plates.

your team got you seated at a table quite close to the front; the venue was already pretty much fully packed once you got inside, actors and singers alike were all mingling with each other. tonight, you were seated at a table with a few other young singers and talented individuals - billie eilish and olivia rodrigo being two of them.

"you look amazing." billie said to you as soon as she noticed you, and olivia looked up from her phone with a smile. "you totally do, i love this dress on you!" olivia agreed sweetly.

"oh my gosh, look at you two, though!" you say, excitedly catching up with two of your closest friends in the business. the three of you continued chatting for a while amongst yourselves, and billie pointed to the table diagonally across from yours.

"dude, cillian murphy is sitting over there - holy shit." she laughs, and you and olivia peek over at the table billie gestured to.

there at a table sat the cast of oppenheimer, and even for someone as famous as yourself - you were starstruck at the sight of him. he was undeniably gorgeous...and definitely way too old for you. you were aware that cillian was a very private guy, never really stepping out into the public eye other than to act or do a quick interview every now and then, but seeing him in person had your head spinning. he was even better looking in person than any photos that you'd ever seen of him.

as you, billie, and olivia stared at the seasoned actors and actresses seated across from you, cillian glanced over - and all three of you looked away, feeling like silly, teenage school girls. "shit," you giggle, "that's embarrassing."

"awkward." billie laughed, and olivia laughed along with the two of you. the topic of conversation switched quickly, and the three of you continued to talk about everything under the sun. eventually, the lights started to dim and the room started to go quiet as the host stepped out on stage. you'd never been to the oscars before, only other award shows, so you were watching in awe as this was your first year attending.

throughout the award show, you stole little glances at cillian; he was mesmerizing, and his blue eyes were truly breathtaking. halfway through the award show, cillians name was announced and he accepted an oscar for his performance in oppenheimer. you applauded along with the rest of the crowd, and he did his little acceptance speech before joining the rest of the cast back at his table.

while he stood up there, you couldn't help but notice how perfect he was - not a flaw existed on this man. as you watched him with hearts in your eyes, you almost felt your heart leap out of your throat as the two of you made eye contact for just a second. however, he quickly returned his gaze to something else, almost looking flustered to have looked your way.

afterwards, cillian and the rest of the cast all did a little cheers to his award. they put their champagne glasses down and continued to watch the host on stage. whilst many talented actors and actresses went up to claim their oscars, your eyes were focused on something else - rather, someone else.

you couldn't help but keep looking over at the older man across from you; nobody in hollywood had truly captured your attention the way he did. love at first sight, perhaps. sure, your sweet personality and jaw-dropping beauty had many a-list men and women swooning, but you never felt inclined to date someone in the same industry as you - they usually had a reputation. there was always something wrong with them, whether they were substance addicts or a serial cheater; you didn't want to stick around and find out.

your heart rate spiked when those stunningly blue eyes you'd been staring at all evening suddenly locked with yours once more, and you looked away hastily, out of both sheer embarrassment and awkwardness from being caught staring. you immediately started to pay attention to the award show, not daring to glance back over at his table. after the host wrapped up the show, everyone got ready to head to the oscars afterparty.

you made your way to the venue with billie and olivia, along with some other young women your own age, and headed straight to the bar. you ordered a cosmopolitan, then another, and then one more. after socializing and drinking, you went to one of the many tables scattered across the room. sitting down, you sigh and sip on your third cosmo of the night.

"excuse me," an smooth, irish accent came from beside you, "d'you mind if i join you?"

looking up in awe, you see none other than cillian murphy himself - looking handsome as ever in his suit - standing with a glass of whiskey in his hands. you felt at a loss for words, but nodded and swallowed. "not at all." you say, gesturing for him to sit.

"i'm sorry," he laughs softly, "i had to come over and say hi. i'm actually a bit of a fan. i watched your performance at the grammy's a few months ago - you're incredibly talented. you have a beautiful voice."

as he tells you this, you felt your jaw drop. cillian murphy, the man himself, thought you were talented? you look at him with an adoring smile, and nod as you took everything that he said in. if you were being honest; you didn't think he even knew who you were.

"that means, like, so much coming from you. i saw oppenheimer and your portrayal of him was amazing. everything you do is...amazing." you gush, and he smiles bashfully. honestly - you found it quite endearing that he was even approaching you and talking to you like this; wasn't he well known for being so reserved and frankly, a little shy or even awkward?

"ah, i appreciate that." he smiles softly, "it's admirable how successful you are - especially for someone so young."

you bit your lip as he mentioned your youthfulness, feeling both mentally and physically weak in the presence of this man. you felt your head spinning; was this really happening right now?

you shrug, trying to play it off as cool as possible. "i appreciate that, truly." you say softly, looking at him with the same starstruck expression as before.

he was quiet for a good minute, taking in your every detail. you noticed his eyes lingered to the dip in your dresses neckline, before speaking again in his gorgeous irish accent.

"m'sorry, you must get this all the time, but you're absolutely stunning." he says casually.

you thought you'd misheard him at first when he said those words. this was cillian murphy of all people - and he was casually throwing out compliments to you. not to mention he was more than twice your age; it was almost morally wrong. almost, but it seemed that neither of you seemed to care about that. not that you really should, anyway.

"t-thank you! i think that, um, you're..." you stammer out, but trail off. you were three drinks in, a little past tipsy, and so utterly starstruck by him that you couldn't muster up the courage to tell him how attractive you found him.

he seemed to understand your nervousness, and gently, he placed one of his hands on your upper thigh with a soft laugh. "nerves?" he asks sympathetically, and you nod your head, laughing along with him. "it's your first time at the oscars, right?"

"yeah," you confess with a smile, "sometimes, i feel like i'm still not used to the whole 'celebrity' thing."

"understandable, you're s'young. it only makes sense." he tells you, once again reminding you of how young you were in comparison to him, whilst his hand was literally resting on your thigh. "if you want, we could go back to my hotel room to chat. you know, to ease your nerves if crowded rooms aren't your thing."

you almost had to stop yourself from fangirling out loud, and with a small nod and a soft smile, you take him up on his offer. "y-yeah, okay. sure."

you were almost certain that he wasn't taking you back to his hotel room for the sake of rescuing you from your social anxiety, but you let it slide. i mean, he's cillian murphy - you'd let just about anything he did slide.

he softly took your hand in his, walking you out to the exit with him, and a few people glanced over in surprise. you tried to pay them no mind, but you knew how it must've looked to others. cillian and you got into his car with his driver, and the both of you headed back to his hotel. once the two of you got to his room, he closed the door behind him and threw his suit jacket over the back of the couch.

you stood there a little awkwardly, mostly because you were so nervous, but also because you'd never been this close with a man so much older than you before. cillian made his way over to you, and softly put his hand on your waist, his thumb trailing little circles over the fabric of your dress.

"is this okay?" he asked softly, and you nodded.

"mhm." you answer, looking up into those striking blue eyes of his.

his other hand trails up your spine, and then to the back of your neck, running his hands through your hair gently. softly, he pulled you closer, closing the gap between the two of you. you were in shock; but you kissed back. it was electrifying. here you were, standing in cillian murphy's hotel room, kissing him. you thought that surely you were dreaming.

the two of you continued to share a few more kisses which then turned into making out, and suddenly you were laying back on his bed with him on top of you. he continued to kiss you deeply, hands roaming all over your body until something seemingly got stuck in a loose thread on your dress. as you both pulled away hesitantly, you noticed something on his hand gotten stuck on that loose thread - a ring.

and no, it wasn't just some regular old ring, and surely not one just to accessorize. the gold band shone on his ring finger, and you saw it for what it was - a wedding ring. you looked down at the ring, and then back at him. how could you have not seen it before?

it seemed in this moment, he knew he'd fucked up as he cleared his throat and started to stumble over his words.

"i-it's not-" he tried to explain, "i'm leaving her."

you looked at him in shock, and in the heat of the moment, you pushed him off of you with a scoff. "you're married?" you ask angrily, "are you fucking kidding me?"

"yes, but-" he tried to interject, but you weren't having it.

"that's disgusting," you spat, "have some respect, jesus christ."

you were already getting up from the bed, grabbing your purse from the kitchen counter as your designer heels clicked against the wooden floors. everything went south so quickly; from when you met to how you ended up in his bed, making out - it was all just one big blurry mess to you now. you didn't know he was married, and if you did, you never would have accepted his offer to come back to his hotel room - let alone let him put his hand on your thigh.

"wait, please-" he begged, following you as you collected your things, "i can explain."

"really?" you asked sarcastically, "you can explain how you're married, yet you decided to take a woman less than half your age to your hotel room?"

"yes," he exasperated, "i'm leaving her, i swear. we're getting a divorce."

you scoffed, this wasn't the first time you'd heard this excuse. hollywood men were sleazy. this was a known fact, and you'd lost count of the amount of men who had slid into your dms telling you that they were getting a divorce or leaving their woman for you. it's not like you ever replied or cared to give in, but still - you knew what they were like.

cillian knew what he was saying was wrong on so many levels - but he couldn't stop himself when it came to you. within seconds of seeing you, you drove him wild. you were a type of beauty he'd never seen before, someone you just feel instantly drawn to.

"well," you say, after a riviting moment of silence, "we'll see about that." you turned to grab the door handle with your purse thrown over your shoulder.

cillian suddenly reached out to grab your arm out of instinct, not willing nor ready to let you go just yet. "please," he sighed, "please - just give me a chance." he said, feeling extremely pathetic for begging like this.

you stayed silent and shot him a stern look, and he took this as his opportunity to continue whatever tangent he was already on. "i'm trying to divorce her as quick as i can but it's just so complicated" he explained, "you're just so gorgeous, fuck, and you're- you're everything i want- no, need."

you stayed quiet for another few seconds, once again trying to process what was coming out of this mans mouth.

"listen," you sigh, "i don't mess with married men, i'm not that kind of girl - but if you actually go through with that divorce - if you're genuinely serious about that, then maybe we can talk."

and with that, you pushed his arm off of you, stepping out of his hotel room and slamming the door behind you. as much as you wanted him to be yours - you knew it was wrong. you were meant to be on your own, not with a man who was married to another woman. what kind of woman would that make you if you were to let something happen between the two of you? you could never do anything like that. i mean, you would but, you were just too nice - and too hot.

you found his driver outside of the hotel, and you told him to drive you back to your hotel. that night, you took a steamy shower to try and clear your mind - but you couldn't shake the thought of him. usually, you paid no mind to any men, married or not, but if you were being honest; you couldn't stop fantasizing about cillian.

you couldn't help but think of him in all the wrong ways while you were laying in bed. you didn't even know why. that night, you had trouble falling asleep, your mind was far too occupied by fantasies of what it would be like to be his. this was only the beginning of such fantasies that would play out in your head for many months to come, but you didn't stop yourself from imagining them.

you'd fantasize about him all the time. if he was yours, you'd give him every part of you, nine to five and five to nine. your life hadn't been the same since you met him. sure, you hated it at first but soon, those little fantasies started to fuel you. you knew he was crazy about you, too. he'd even create little burner accounts to stalk your social media to see what you were doing - but you never wanted to give off the impression that you felt the same. at least, not yet you didn't.

it had been a hectic last few months with all the award shoes and red carpets that came after the oscars, but now you had some downtime. award season was over, and that meant you had more free time to stay out of the public eye and work on your second album, which you were excited to share. however, there was another small reason why you chose to stay out of the public eye.

photos of you and cillian, hands intertwined, had leaked to the media. apparently, the two of you in your inebriated states didn't notice some fans lingering around the area hoping to catch a glimpse of some celebrities. those people snapped some photos of the two of you, and then sold them to multiple media outlets.

the backlash was what you expected - sort of. the media had painted you to be the innocent one in this scandal, and rather cillian the one in the wrong. to be fair, that's what the truth was anyways, but you were glad that in this day and age, you had the internet backing you up and not ripping you to shreds. there were multiple articles talking about how "cillian murphy, 47, tried to take advantage" of you and how he was straying from his wife for "someone who was more than two decades younger."

you were pretty silent on social media for a while, and you only got around to updating and posting like you normally did just last week. the comments scared you as you weren't sure what people would have to say, but everyone was surprisingly supportive of you. there were minimal to no comments about the whole cillian murphy scandal, and things seemed to have died down just as quickly as they started.

now, a few months later after those pictures head leaked - cillian was still with his wife who he claimed he was "divorcing." you knew that it was most likely a front, but deep down; a part of you wished he had gone through with it, and even worse - you wished you had gone through with throwing caution to the wind and having your way with him that night. as wrong as it was, you felt your heart aching at the thought of him. sure, you were young and you didn't really know what love was, but you were pretty certain that this. was. it.

you wanted to know so badly why he was still with her, he was clearly not happy and had wandering eyes, so why was he still staying? it was a puzzle to you, and you felt yourself overthinking the simple question constantly, often letting it consume your daily thoughts. cillian wished he could tell you why, but he knew it would sound shallow. if he was being honest - he didn't love his wife. maybe at first when they got married when he was your age he did, but definitely not anymore.

their love had grown stale, and it's not like he really had a reason to stay faithful anymore besides his morals, but those morals didn't do him any good whenever he thought of you or better yet, saw pictures of you. him and his wife didn't share any kids together thankfully, and he often found himself zoning out every time they spent time with one another; his thoughts going to you instead. his wife had indeed seen the pictures of the two of you, but she was determined to let it go. apparently, the two of them were going to marriage counselling for it.

you scoffed at the idea when you read an article about it because you thought it was ridiculous. there was no point saving a man who didn't want to be saved, it would never work. but of course, you kept this all to yourself - you didn't want to give off the impression that you were okay with being the other woman because you weren't. shamelessly, you would constantly search his name up on social media or online to see any articles with updates about his marriage - and yeah, you were aware how bad that habit had gotten.

your fantasies were vivid, the memory of his hands trailing up and down your body on repeat in your mind all the time. the feeling of his lips pressed up against yours on that one, fateful night - you couldn't forget it. but that's the thing, as much as you wanted him and so desperately craved him - if he wouldn't leave her, you knew you couldn't force him to. you weren't going to wait forever, especially for a married man, and cillian knew that if he let you go, he'd come to regret it for the rest of his life.

his wife could tell. she knew that his mind was always going back to the thought of you - she could see it in the way he was acting towards her now, the way he touched her, the way he spoke to her - it almost seemed like he would try and pretend that she was you.

"honey, i don't know why you're so upset." cillian calmly explained to his wife, who was currently shouting at him in their shared home in dublin.

"you aren't even trying, cillian! it's like you don't care anymore - after over two decades of marriage you're just done?!" she screeched at him, and he rolled his eyes in frustration.

"oh, come on," he groaned, "don't be like that."

"oh, really? like i'm the one who had an affair with someone less than half my age." she sneered, and he knew that technically, she was right. she hadn't cheated on him, but he did cheat on her.

"were going to marriage counselling for it, i don't understand why you're so mad at me! i told you, we didn't even go past kissing." he huffed, and his wife was seconds away from losing it.

"how does that make it any better?" she yelled, "i know you still think about her, cillian. i went through your god damn phone! i saw the accounts you made to see what shes been posting. i know you wish that it was her in bed with you at night, sleeping by you. i saw the way you were looking at her in those pictures!"

cillian went silent at the bomb that his wife just dropped - and he couldn't even deny it anymore. of course he wished it was you in bed with him at night, and yes; if he had it his way, you'd be in her place instead. he imagined what a life with you could be like; the two of you living in a quiet, little suburban house with a few pets, and a beautiful garden - and you with a wedding ring on your finger, not his wife who he stopped loving years ago.

"you're thinking of her again, aren't you?" his wifes voice brought him out of his thoughts, and he looked at her as she had tears in her eyes.

"don't cry, please-"

"do you even love me anymore?" his wife sobbed quietly, interjecting. he sighed, staying silent, and she continued to speak to him through her tears. "i think it's best if you get it out in the open - maybe you hoped i wouldn't notice, but i've been married to you for over twenty years. i know you, cillian."

with a sigh, he looked down in shame. he couldn't bring himself to say anything, it seemed that his words got stuck in his throat at this very moment.

"your silence is enough of an answer," she said quietly, "but tell me cillian, you owe it to me after all you've put me through - do you love her?"

"i-i don't know i-" he stammered, knowing full well what the truth was; he did love you. he fell in love the moment he laid eyes on you. he fell in love with your youth, your radiance, your beauty, everything about you made this man weak. he'd barely known you for an hour and yet, he could confidently say that he loved you.

"you do know," his wife murmured, "you and i both know."

"well maybe i do," he whispered, "i can't change how i feel."

"twenty years, cillian! does that mean nothing to you?" she yelled, her rage apparent now.

"what do you want me to fucking say?" he spat back, knowing full well he was in the wrong here; but all his morals went out the window at this point, "i can't undo what i've done, and i'm sorry, okay? i'm sorry, but i also can't change the way i feel about her!"

"what's wrong with you? i don't even know who you are anymore!" she screamed at him, and now both of them were going back and forth, the argument escalating at an alarming rate.

"i don't care!" he shouted back, making his wife angrier.

"so, what now?" she screamed, "d'you want to get a divorce? is that what you want?"

"you know what? yes! in fact, i've wanted one since before i even met-"

"don't say her name." his wife spat, and that pushed cillian over the egde.

"i'm getting the divorce papers by the end of the week, and you're going to fucking sign them, i'll tell you that much." he seethed, and his wife started to throw whatever she could at him in a blind rage. as cillian ducked away from a dish being hurled at him, he decided to get one last dig in. "oh, by the way - i knew from the moment i met her, i'd much rather that she have my last name instead of you."

when you read the article titles and news headlines, you felt your heart drop.

"oppenheimer star cillian murphy and his wife have seemingly split - here's what we know."

you quickly wash down your glass of wine, and put your phone down in disbelief. you felt the guilt sink in slowly, and it made you want to cry; you couldn't help but feel like this was your fault. that you destroyed a marriage, and you had taken a man from another woman. you knew if that even if you weren't a hundred precent of the reason they divorced, you were at least a part of it. you were sure of that.

when you found out about his apparent divorce, you were shocked to say the least; you had finally come to terms with how he was probably never going to have the guts to leave her, and that was okay with you now. you didn't want to get dragged into a messy scandal, you were okay with letting him do what he wanted - he wasn't yours to keep, anyway.

up until now, he just didn't have the heart to leave her, as the media would think he'd only left her because he got the fame, and now he wanted some young, hollywood beauty. sure, it was partially true that he had left her for a younger woman that he so desperately wanted, but they didn't know how much he loved you. the media didn't know how badly he needed to have you.

and now that you were in the picture, those rumours would look like they were true - and it would be an absolute mess. the media would eat it up. so now, to force yourself to try and move on, you were talking to a bunch of other guys, but they just weren't him.

today, you were at another event where you were currently sitting at the bar, waiting for your favourite cocktail; a cosmopolitan after your second glass of wine. tonight, you needed it more than ever. this was a huge event, as you were one of the biggest stars attending, along with some other big names in hollywood. you heard about who else was going to be there, and cillian's name was included in that conversation. you felt stupid for thinking he wasn't going to be there, his fame had skyrocketed after oppenheimer - of course he'd be there.

tonight, you made waves as you walked the red carpet in your stunning, custom made gown by none other than donatella versace herself with the perfect mix of accessories and matching heels. you looked dolled up.

oh, and you also came with another man. that's right; you walked the carpet with your rumoured new boyfriend, evan peters.

when people saw the two of you step out onto the carpet together, they lost their minds. evan was quite a bit older than you, but still - he was a little over ten years younger than cillian. once the two of you were posing for pictures as the flashing lights consumed your vision, he wrapped his arm around your waist and kissed your cheek softly. the photographers were eating this up; and they were shouting your name left and right, along with various questions.

"over here, look over here!"

"how long have the two of you been together?"

"did you have an affair with cillian?"

"what happened with cillian murphy?"

"did you hear about cillians divorce?"

the questions were progressively getting more invasive, and the two of you stepped into the venue of the event, wanting a break from the cameras and flashing lights. evan headed to the bar with you, but excused himself for a moment.

of course, the moment you were alone, you saw cillian, along with some other cast members from oppenheimer, walk in. you recognize pretty much all of them right away, and you do your best to look unengaged and pretend that you didn't even notice him.

cillian saw you instantly, but before he could even say anything or go over to you - he saw your new man return to the bar, wrapping his arms around you from behind and placing a soft kiss on your cheek. in that moment, he thought he could actually feel his heart being ripped into two, but he kept his composure and smiled at his cast-mates happily.

"another drink already?" evan teased, a smile on his face, "everything alright?"

"mm, yeah. everything is fine." you say cheerfully, even though deep down your heart was hurting at the fact that the man now sitting in front of you wasn't the man that you were in love with. "i just get a little overwhelmed at these events, you know that."

"right, i'm sorry." he says softly, taking your hand into his. "you look gorgeous tonight, sweetie."

the way he complimented you and the environment you were in felt all too familiar, and flashbacks of your night with cillian came flooding back into your mind. you mentally shook them right out of your head for the night. you didn't want to hurt your own feelings again, so for the remainder of the night, you avoided him and stuck by evans side.

cillian on the other hand thought he was going crazy. did you see the news articles about his divorce? were you in love with someone else? did you even think about him?

the following weeks had gone by in a blur as you were currently promoting the anticipated release of your upcoming album, and things were going so well for you - but you felt empty inside. you thought you were losing it, driving yourself insane over a married (well, no longer) man who you'd kissed for a few minutes in a hotel room.

two weeks ago, you broke it off with evan. you were certain it wasn't going to work, he was such a sweet guy and you knew he deserved someone else because your heart didn't belong to him. it belonged to cillian as much as you didn't want it to.

what was it with you and this man?

after breaking it off with evan, you debated texting cillian. perhaps it was just bad timing and now that he was divorced, things could work. maybe you just needed a little time apart just so that you could make your way back to each other. as you picked up your phone to try and muster up a text, you opened your social media to see that tmz had a new article up:

"cillian murphy and estranged ex-wife seen out together in dublin - what does this mean for the former couple?"

and below, there were pictures of him and his ex-wife walking side by side on the streets of ireland, and a few pictures of them in a little cafe together, seemingly just talking - but this was enough to drive you up the wall. you were done; you were out the door, and he was out of chances.

bye.

if he couldn't make up his mind, you would make up yours. opening your text messages, you scroll down to his contact. it had been months since the whole oscars incident, and neither of you had ever talked after that - he didn't even reach out to you after his divorce. so, you figured that this was just a waste of time; maybe it was best to move on from the fantasies in your head.

and with that, you blocked his number and tried not to let your anxiety consume you. to be honest, you were sort of hoping that maybe things would've worked out between the two of you; it felt like it was meant to be - but now you weren't too convinced.

currently, cillian was cooped up inside of a hotel room down in los angeles and he knew that you'd most likely seen the pictures, everyone had at this point. he tried to message you for the first time since the hotel room fiasco, but as he tried to explain it to you, his texts kept going green - you'd blocked his number. he tried calling, but the line just went dead each time.

the pictures were taken so out of context, but how would you know that? you wouldn't. in reality, cillian had agreed to meet up with his ex-wife as they were supposed to talk about divorce settlements. that was all. the two of them walked around, enjoying the sun as they tried to talk about it civilly. his estranged, and now ex-wife, took the whole situation surprisingly well.

sighing, he grabbed his car keys and his jacket, and got into his car while speeding recklessly down the freeway; his heart beating exhilaratingly. as he sped down the freeways of los angeles, he took a moment to appreciate the beauty of it all. the palm trees and the pink sunset - it reminded him of you. vibrant and beautiful. so young, so reckless, and so carefree.

as you were winding down for bed, you heard the doorbell of your beachfront property being rang repeatedly. in a state of confusion, you make your way downstairs and started wandering towards the front door. who the hell would be on your doorstep ringing your bell at such an hour? swinging the door open, you find cillian standing there like a pathetic, love-drunk fool.

"are you fucking kidding me?" you deadpan, looking at him with an expression that said the same thing as your words. after nine months he decided to show up at your doorstep? how did he know where you lived?

"i know," he began, "i know i look insane but i'm- jesus, i'm fucking crazy about you."

you stare at him wide-eyed, as this was not what you were expecting to see this evening. "cillian," you sigh, "i saw the pictures-"

"i can explain," he interjects, his voice laced with desperation, "please."

there he was; standing outside your house in the middle of the night, begging for you because he couldn't let you go. begging after he'd left his wife of twenty years for you.

"fine, just come inside. i don't want any more leaked pictures online." you grumble, opening the door fully so he could come in.

once he got inside, you closed the door behind the both of you, walking to your living room together. this was the first time in months that you'd actually talked - and even though you tried to deny it, your heart was racing at just the sight of him stood there, desperate for you. as you sat across from him on your couch, you looked at him silently, letting him say what he needed to.

"i'm so sorry for the mess that i've created." he said quietly.

"you should be." you respond cooly, trying not to let his words effect you in any way. you knew better.

"i know the last nine months have been insane," he says, looking at you with remorse, "but i mean, you can't deny what we have. i've never felt this way about anyone - i wouldn't have divorced my wife if i didn't think this was something worth fighting for."

you rub your temples, "cillian," you groan, "you can't be saying shit like that."

"why not?" he retaliated, making you scoff. "you told me to reach out to you once i was divorced and you'd maybe give me a chance. i'm doing what you asked me to, baby please-"

"don't baby me," you scoff, "you didn't tell me from the beginning that you were married. let's say i do forgive you, and we do this for real - how can i trust you?"

"i-i don't know, but i'll do anything i can to make this work." he pleaded, "i haven't stopped thinking about you since the day i met you."

"jesus, you're crazy." you groan, and to that he agreed.

"yeah, i know," he agreed, "m'fucking crazy about you."

you threw your hands up in defeat as if to say "well?" and he just looked at you in awe, his salt and pepper hair complimenting his gorgeous blue eyes. he continued to stared at you. he certainly wasn't trying to hide hide how attracted to you he was.

"the pictures of you and your ex-wife..." you said quietly, looking away from him, "i can't trust you, cillian."

"we were just talking about settlements," he said, "you know better than anyone how the media is; they blow shit out of proportion and take everything out of context. i swear that's all it was."

"you can't just show up like this..." you trail off, a frustrated sigh leaving your lips.

"is this because of your new guy or somethin'?" he huffs, and you roll your eyes at him. "no," you explain, "i'm not even seeing him anymore, we broke it off weeks ago."

"oh," he says, his eyes lighting up, "well, that's good to know."

it was silent for a moment, the two of you sitting there in each other's company, both lost in thought.

"why?" you ask suddenly, the question lingering in the tension filled air.

cillian looks at you confused, "what?"

"why does it have to be like this?" you ask, feeling the weight of your emotions bring you down. "why does it all have to be so complicated? why did you have to make it so complicated?"

"if this is about my marriage-"

"of course it's about your marriage!" you exclaim, your emotions getting the better of you, "i've spent the last nine months driving myself insane over you - god, i don't even know why. i feel this overwhelming guilt because of your divorce and-"

you pause, getting choked up as every last feeling from the last nine months decided to reign it's terror on you in that very moment with cillian sitting right across from you on your couch. every ounce of guilt that was compiled up inside of you, every bit of anger and resentment, and every negative emotion poured out from the depths of your slightly broken heart.

with teary eyes, you finally look at him again. "i feel like i wrecked your marriage, and i-i don't want to be that type of woman."

"you didn't wreck anything." cillian says, moving close to you as he placed a hand on you, rubbing your back soothingly. "i was in the wrong - i should have told you the truth. i should have done a lot of things differently. if i could go back in time, i would."

"but you can't!" you say as the tears start flowing, covering your face with your hands.

"i can't, no," he agrees, "but i'll change, i'll do anything for you."

"are you insane?" you shout at him with tears pooling in your eyes, "i don't know why you-"

"because i fucking love you, that's why." he said suddenly, looking you dead in the eyes as you both went silent.

"i'm sorry?" you ask in shock, meeting his gaze.

"because," he sighs, "i've fallen in love with you."

"you barely know me-"

"but i want to," he insists, moving closer to you. "just one chance, please."

looking up into his gorgeous blue eyes once more, you felt yourself go weak. he chased you down for months, left his wife for you, showed up at your doorstep - what more could he do to prove he was all in for you? with a trembling breath, he reaches his hand to softly cup your face, wiping your tears away with his thumb. his eyes search yours for any trace of a mutual feeling, for any indication that you might've wanted him as badly as he wanted you.

as he was leaning in, the gap between his lips and yours was getting smaller and smaller by the second. despite everything that was said in the last ten minutes, you didn't stop him. you didn't back away because deep down, you knew you needed him as much as he needed you. the pull between the two of you was unexplainable.

softly, he kissed you for the first time in nine months, and instinctively, you wrapped your arms around his neck. as you tangled your hands in his greying hair, he pulled you closer by your waist. while his tongue was exploring your mouth, you boldly get on top of his lap. straddling him, you run your hands in his hair once more and deepen the kiss.

"tell me you feel the same way, i know you do." he whispered against your lips, pulling away just enough so that he could get the words out.

"i feel the same, cillian." you confess in a breathless whisper, and he starts to pepper kisses down your neck, trailing them along to your collarbone.

"thought about you every fuckin' night," he murmured against your skin, "m'gonna cherish you, my love."

"i fantasized about you all the time." you admit out loud, grinding your hips down onto him.

you could already feel how hard he was underneath you, and you bit your lip at the feeling of his clothed cock pressing up against your cunt.

"mm, yeah?" he groaned, "tell me, sweet girl."

his hands took hold of your waist, helping you grind down on his lap. "i thought about y-you..." you whimpered, feeling yourself soak through your panties already.

"well, don't get shy on me now." he said lowly, his hands reaching up to squeeze your breasts, rolling your clothed nipples between his fingers softly. since you weren't wearing a bra, he had easy access.

with a soft moan, you try your best to answer him as his bulge rubbed against your cunt and his fingers tweaked your nipples, causing you to lose all inhibitions. "t-thought about your cock stretching me open," you confess, "and- f-fuck, i thought about you bending me over, making me scream all night."

"how about i help you live out those fantasies of yours, hm?" he growled, pulling you into a sloppy kiss.

as you melted into the kiss, he reached his hand down and slipped them past the waistband of your pyjama pants. he pushed your panties to the slide and let his fingers swipe through your soaked folds, making you moan into the kiss. the feeling of his fingers just simply brushing against you was heavenly, and you knew you needed more.

"you're fucking soaked, baby." he groaned, biting your lip softly between his teeth.

in an instant, he was pushing you down onto your couch. you shimmied your way out of your pyjama pants with his help of course, and he also assisted in pulling your panties down, too. as he tossed them to the side, you felt your heart palpitate at what was about to happen.

he gently inserted his middle finger into you at a slow pace, your slick walls clenching down on him from sheer neediness.

"that's a good fucking girl," he praised softly, "feels good, baby?"

"m-mmhm," you moaned, looking up at him as he hovered over you.

with one hand, he continued to play with your tits, tweaking the nipple between his fingers and with the other hand, he was fingering you gently. the act was so intimate yet sinful at the same time, it had your head spinning. the way he kept eye contact was driving you insane as you looked into his icy blue eyes.

slowly, he inserted a second digit into your drooling hole, your back arching at the intrusion and slight stretch. you let out a quiet moan, and he started to curl his fingers, fucking you with them faster and faster.

"let me hear those pretty moans, sweetheart," he cooed, "i wanna watch you as you cum on my fingers."

"f-fuck, right there-!" you whined, arching your back even further.

as he fucked you on his fingers rapidly, you could feel the coil in your stomach about to snap. as your slick walls clenched down on cillian's fingers, you moaned his name out over and over, feeling yourself drenching his hand.

"fuck, you're so pretty." he complimented, watching your reaction as you came undone on his fingers for him.

after your chest was heaving and you were left a panting mess, he pulled his fingers out gently. he helped you slip your pyjama top off, and you assisted him in undoing his belt buckle.

as he pushed his pants down, his cock sprung out. your mouth watered at the sight of it, needing nothing more than for him to be balls deep inside of your aching, needy cunt right now. he got on top of you hastily, stroking himself a few times before he lined himself up with you.

he teasingly brushed his pale, pink tip through your sticky folds as his pre-cum leaked out, and you whined with desperation.

"i fantasized about stretching you open on my cock." he admitted suddenly, biting down on his plush lips. "i thought about how you'd look with it buried deep inside, begging me to let you cum."

his vulgar words went straight to your core, and you looked up at him with a rosy hue covering the apples of your cheeks.

"show me," you whimpered, "make me beg to cum on your cock."

it didn't take much convincing before he suddenly pushed into your warm hole, stretching you out beyond belief. you could feel him fill you fully, and you almost choked on air at the sensation of his cock actually splitting you open like he promised. even though your cunt was dripping, he was still met with some resistance just from how tight you were around him.

"jesus, baby," he groaned, "what a tight fucking pussy."

"uh-huh, y-you're so big-" you squeak, and he started to move in and out at a fast pace, barely giving you time to adjust.

as his cock filled you fully, you swore you could feel him bulging in your stomach. his fat, veiny cock was reaching places you didn't even think were possible to reach, and places that his fingers certainly couldn't. he continued to push deeper inside of you with harsh thrusts, knocking the wind out of you each time his cock brushed up against that spongy spot inside of you.

you closed your eyes as your slick started to drip down onto the couch. you'd never been so soaked in your life. he tapped your cheek a few times, causing your eyes to flutter open. softly, he cupped your face with one hand while the other held an unwavering grip on your leg, lifting it up over his shoulder so he could fuck you even deeper.

"look at me, sweetheart," he commanded softly, making you clench on his cock. "oh," he noticed, "you like it when i talk to you like that, huh?"

you indeed liked when he talked like that - scratch that, you fucking loved it. he could feel you squeeze his cock with your dripping cunt each time he just spoke, his voice bringing you closer and closer to the edge once more.

"cill, i-i...fuck!" you screamed as his cock brushed up against that sensitive spot inside of you, causing you to suddenly lose all ability to speak properly.

"hm, sweetheart?" he cooed lovingly, but continued ramming into you ruthlessly.

your pussy was soaked and stretched, and as you kept your eyes on his - you watched him in awe. the way his pink lips were slightly parted, his salt and pepper hair disheveled, and his brow furrowed. it was driving you into a permanent state of euphoria.

"i love you," you gasped between breathless moans and incoherent begging, "so much."

your pupils were blown, staring up at him with such intensity he thought he was going to break right then and there.

"fuck, sweetie," he groaned, "i love you, too."

"i-i'm gonna cum, r-right there-" you begged him, "please, can i?"

"cum on my cock, cum right fucking now." he almost growled, pounding your tight, sopping cunt mercilessly. his pace never wavered, and he continued to fuck you into euphoria, studying you as you tipped over the edge from his thrusts.

with a groan, he came with you. he filled you with everything he had, fucking his cum so deep into your cunt you could almost feel him bruise your cervix. after his cock spurted the last bits of his cum into you, he was a panting, love-drunk mess propped up above you.

you were just as fucked out, smiling at him dopily while his cock remained buried inside of your warm walls. cillian brought his hand back up to your face, brushing a strand or two out of your face before placing a gentle kiss on your swollen lips.

"my love," he whispered, voice saccharine, "you are everything to me. everything."

"i adore you." you say softly, letting a heavy breath out.

"we'll make this work, i know we will. i just can't live a life without you in it." he tells you.

the crowd cheered, giving you a standing ovation as you finished your performance. you smiled bashfully and yelled "thank you new york!" into the microphone as the final show of your tour ended, and you waved goodbye to the thousands of fans in the arena.

rushing backstage after your show, you run into cillians arms and he hugs you tightly. he places a soft kiss on your head as you smile up at him sweetly, and looks at you with a proud expression on his face.

"you were amazing, love," he says softly, pulling you into his side as the two of you walk into your dressing room, "m'so glad i could join you for the last half of your tour. love watching you perform, s'amazing."

"oh, cill," you smile bashfully, "shush, you're too sweet."

"my lovely wife," he sighed, kissing you softly, "i'm just so proud of everything you've done."

you sigh blissfully as he holds your hands in his, and you head back to the hotel your staying at before your flight tomorrow morning. as your head hits the pillow, you feel exhausted and like you haven't slept in ages. cillian wraps his arms around you, spooning you as you turn off the light.

"goodnight, mrs. murphy." he whispers softly, holding you in his arms.

now you didn't have to fantasize about what it was like to be his anymore - he was all yours now, and you were all his. last name and all.

MUSIC CLUB

Movie! Cole Brookstone x Reader

COLE WAS IN A MUSIC CLUB BUT DIDN’T REALIZE THAT THE MEETING WAS CANCELED AFTER SCHOOL, ENTERING THROUGH THE DOORS HE FOUND SOMEONE NEW.

Headphones blasting at full volume and walking in the hallway.

Cole Brookstone, one of the students who were known to be a “member” of the “Garma-dork squad”, other than that, he was known as one of the most laid-back students who couldn’t care less about anything. School has ended, but that didn’t stop some students from being in the school. Whether they’d be doing club activities or to just hang out after school to finish up some homework. Cole was accepted into the music club, although due to the work of being a secret ninja and with all the exams coming up, he had to be absent most of the time. Kai was also accepted into the club but he isn’t as passionate nor as committed to music like Cole, so Kai left the club a while back to join any sports club.

Cole’s phone died during his last period so he was listening to some music through his large boombox which was currently playing some AC/DC. Bopping his head to the tunes and the rhythm, he made it in front of the music club’s door, but before he entered, he heard some noises on the other side of the door. Slipping off his headphones and pausing the music, he pressed his ear against the door.

Silence was heard on the other side but then a loud electric guitar noise was heard, making Cole flinch back in surprise.

Slowly turning the doorknob, he peeped through curiously. The music was louder than before, his brows burrowed at the absence of the rest of the club members, was he too late or too early? Looking more into the room, he spotted a girl with a black shiny electric guitar, her back was facing Cole, hiding her face. He took in some details of the female in front of him with curiosity lingering on his face.

Settling behind her, he sat on the blue carpeted floor, listening intently to her tunes and stringing, her fingers dancing across the strings and she plucks and bends them. Bopping her head up and down to the rock like music.

Cole’s face grew a smile onto his lips as he stared in amazement at her talent, recognizing the song.

She was playing the guitar solo of the song “I don’t wanna be me” by Type O Negative.

Her fingers going up and down the fret board, her hair jumping from her head bops. The song came to an end as she paused and sighed, then becoming startled by the sound of clapping coming from behind her.

Turning quickly, she saw Cole sitting down on the floor, boombox next to him as he was clapping his hands at her solo. “That was awesome” he spoke out happily at her accomplishment, her face held a slight pink tint on her cheeks from embarrassment and from someone seeing her play for the first time.

“Thank you! I wasn’t expecting someone to watch, I would’ve done much more better” She spoke out softly with a small chuckle, turning around to her guitar stand, she turned off the big amp as she placed the shiny instrument on the stand, while at the same time she was pulling out her aux cord. Cole stood up from the floor while watching her clean up, deciding to break the silence he spoke out first.

“So am I late to the meeting or was I early?” Cole asked with curiosity in his tone, the girl turned to look at as she grabbed her bag, “oh, for music club? It was canceled today and was rescheduled to tomorrow” she grabbed her phone and showed him the texts in the group chat.

“Ah, okay I see, my phone died in last period so I didn’t see.” He replied back to her, silence was filled in the room as they awkwardly stood there in the middle of the room.

“So, what’s your name?” The girl asked, saving them from the deafening silence, Cole was secretly grateful. “I’m Cole, what about you?” He stuffed his hands in his pockets as he looked at the girl in front of him. “I’m Y/n, it’s nice to meet you” She spoke out with a closed eyed smile, he felt an immense surge of relaxation from the girl, something about her was calming and comforting, like a warm aura.

Checking the time on her phone, she had a few minutes left till she has to take her leave. “So, you’re friends with Lloyd?” She asked curiously, “I usually see you by the lockers with him and the others” she added on, Cole immediately felt uncomfortable, not like he was uncomfortable, he felt that he was making her uncomfortable. “Oh, uh, yeah I am, I swear Lloyd is-“ being cut off from the girl she smiled and nodded.

“That’s cool, I’ve always wondered how is he, even though we never really talked nor does he know me, I was always so worried for him cause of all the bullying, especially from chen” her smooth voice replied at cole, making him stunned at her words, she doesn’t hate Lloyd. Which was rare, especially from being in this city.

“You don’t hate him?” He asked whilst tilting his head to the side.

You disagreed and started to state your opinion on the blonde boy. You were about to speak up once more but a ringing was heard in your pockets, you earned a phone call by your ‘mother dearest’ as how you would like to call her.

“Well, looks like i gotta go, see you around?” You smiled at the muscular teenager in front of you as he nodded, “yeah, see you later” he held up his fist in which you knocked your knuckles against his with a smile. Exiting through the door, Cole couldn’t help but smile as he made a new friend.

Maybe he should go to the music club more often.

Thank you!

[ourladyofomega]

I was getting deeper and deeper into everything electronic and industrial, all during my one-year break in-between the Brentwood era and community college. The UK electronics invasion, MTV's Amp, and Wipeout XL were the major influences that led me to that point. I was starting to have an endless appetite for music, and one thing I learned about myself that I could be interested in anything and everything. I already had an affinity to golden-era hip-hop / rap and alternative. The seeds of hardcore started to grow, so there would be no stopping me at this point. There were so many genres, artists, and sounds I was getting into, and I wanted to keep up. I had a position at a department store in the shopping mall, then later at a movie rental store, so I could afford to buy titles for whatever cash I had in hand.

I didn't have a desktop with internet to find independent stores. I had yellow pages instead: thick phone-books listing hundreds upon hundreds of pages of local businesses, their addresses, and their phone numbers all in minuscule print. That's how I discovered them back then. It was a year after visiting my first-ever independent record store, Commack's Mr. Cheapo's. Then came West Babylon's Looney Tunes before the holidays. Still enthusiastic in discovering the vast unknown, I wanted to find more. Port Jefferson's Music Den would be the next destination.

I already felt like an outsider when I arrived on campus. It was a different type of demographic I was used to. I looked around and I'd still see cliques, circles, and other "exclusive" groups of students that I felt I wouldn't be included in. I'd meet newfound friends who'd introduce me to their friends, but it felt forced, and they didn't seem to care. I was crazy for Atari Teenage Riot because they showed me exactly what techno always should've been: deafening loud, criminally high-speed, and maniacally all over the place. I tried looking for people who were in them, and observed what types of music the majority were into. Simplistic, manufactured, predictable dance hits. Boring weekend club-mashers. Formulaic radio chart-toppers. I wasn't impressed. The people who were into that were shallow, superficial, judgmental, needlessly competitive, and at times just unnecessarily mean. Drama artists and attitude jockeys all over the place. That's why they called community college "13th Grade". Now you'd see the disgusting distaste of the late-Nineties music scene I had. But, I did have a couple of good cards given to me. I joined the campus newspaper which I'd write music reviews for. An attractive brunette, Sandra, randomly stopped me to strike up a conversation, and wanted to get to know me better. She was also a Jesus freak. I also made another friend I met on campus who decided to set me up with an Irish blonde acquaintance of his, and we hit it off right away. Even then, I'd deal with constant games, rudeness, and random acts of ego during my time there.

The newspaper meeting ended one late October Thursday night. I finally had the opportunity to drive out eight miles from campus to the Port Jefferson Music Den for some shopping. I walked right in, and started digging. I'm not even there for two minutes and I already find gold: the import version of Alec Empire’s The Destroyer for only $9.00 used ($22.00 brand new otherwise). That was a huge deal for me because (once again) I was an Atari Teenage Riot / DHR fanatic. Right after that? Another label release, this time from EC8OR. I'd finally discover all those artists I heard about on the internet; thirty-minute download times of grainy 480P-resolution video and all. I was really starting to like this place. I start scouring the used CD bins, and I’d stumble upon KMFDM’s banned version of Naive for $8.00 - back when used copies on eBay were selling for…$80.00 each! Then came Pigface’s Washingmachinemouth and Ministry’s The Land Of Rape And Honey for a few dollars used. I copped Fluke’s Risotto because of Wipeout XL, and I’d snatch Skinny Puppy’s Back & Forth Volume 2 and Cleopatra’s Industrial Revolution: Third Edition, all for regular price. Finally, Coldcut’s "Atomic Moog 2000" / "Reboot The System": the first-ever multimedia CD I'd ever own.

Minute-by-minute, I'd slowly discover all sorts of wild and unusual sounds and artists they had on the racks. The Port Jeff- Music Den carried all the rare, unusual, and obscure stuff no other store on the island did. Sure, there were plenty of used CDs and vinyl bins in pop, metal, alternative, shoegaze, indie, hip-hop, and jazz. It was their industrial, noise, electronic, and experimental selections, however, that would be the all-important tie-breaker. They had all what I was looking for. I remembered seeing titles like Gescom’s Minidisc on the racks, Coil’s “Autumn Equinox: Amethyst Deceivers” 7", tons of Clock DVA, Controlled Bleeding, plus some Oval and Microstoria albums. It was wild. I felt stimulated because I found plenty of abnormalities that I never knew existed, instead of the expected, typical, calculated fare that did absolutely nothing for me.

90 minutes later, I took my short stack of CDs, placed them on the counter to be rung up, cashed out, and wrapped up what would be my first visit to The -Den. $82.00 later, I leave fucking satisfied.

With each visit after, I’d continue to score big victories where I’d find them. They were Phil Western’s debut album The Escapist, Muslimgauze’s Hamas Arc, Mike & Rich’s Expert Knob Twiddlers, Aphex Twin’s Analogue Bubblebath 3, Merzbow’s Pulse Demon, and Sam & Valley. I’d nab more DHR albums from 16-17, Shizuo on vinyl, Fuck Step '98, Give Up on 12", and Alec Empire’s Squeeze The Trigger. The best? Autechre / Gescom’s “Keynell” 12" that I found under the vinyl bins and hidden inside the cabinet underneath. It was stickered for $17.00 - another record where second-hand copies sold on eBay for $125.00. I also managed to pick up a few of their 12" EPs, mainly Chiclisuite and Envane.

All these finds made The -Music Den the most unforgettable store I had the privilege to visit. They were like nothing else on the island. Sadly, they closed down after the turn of the millennium, and no store that came after was half-as-good enough to fill the hole they left behind. Believe me, if any of you reading this would’ve shopped there, you’d feel amazed and blown away like I was. I’d still have a tough time dealing with all the constant, petty drama on campus over the next couple of years. At the Port Jefferson Music Den, however, I knew that was a place where I felt like I’d belong.

mom made us watch home movies tonight and some were from when i was a teenager, typing on AIM and silently playing wow, and everyone on and off camera laughing at how "depressing" it was. then video of us opening xmas presents, my brother getting some 'big' gift of the wii and a computer monitor, my sister getting a guitar and amp, and the whole time my moms watching and saying 'what was [swamp]'s gift? didnt i get you a big gift?' i am clearly opening presents in the video (watched myself unwrap the war of the ancients trilogy lmao) but it bothered me that she kept calling to attention how i didnt have a 'big' gift. then when they went earlier to where i was like 8-9 years old i had to just leave the room. it was too painful. all these kids crowded around the computer as i showed them the website i was so proud of making and one by one dropping like flies out of boredom. i remember being the only kid at my elementary school who had an email address or even knew what one was.

even though it was 'depressing' to everyone else, i would give anything to go back to that time in my life, being that girl at that age, being 15, seeing all the kandi i was wearing and recognized, bright and unblemished by the decades of filth and degradation from being worn every single day. the sunburst kandi from cosmos. the crab hairtie. the pink bead lizard. how could i forget? the rave scene, like azeroth, a window into a world where i could belong. i watched arete sit down in the undercity to log out. the same arete. same character, same player.

the same arete. it hurts.

So I sent you an ask before your tumblr got deleted and I’m assuming the ask got deleted too. Basically, when I was watching Nimona I thought Ballistar got his prosthetic too quickly after his amputation. But I don’t actually know how long it takes for an amputation to heal, or to build up the strength needed to use a prosthetic. Also I would have liked to see him learn to use his prosthetic instead of using it perfectly from the beginning. But I’m not an amputee. Are my impressions of this accurate?

Yeah, I'm really sorry about that (also that it took me a little while to answer this time too!), I'm pretty sure my answer was actually the next post in my queue 😅.

So I haven't seen Nimona (I really want to, but I don't currently have Netflix lol) so I can only answer generally, but the healing time is different depending on what you mean by healed. If you mean just the wound healing, that takes a few weeks, usually 2-4 weeks. If you mean able to wear a prosthetic, for leg amps, that's usually 6-8 weeks, but I think it might be shorter for arm amputees since they aren't weight bearing through their stumps. Im not 100% sure, though. To fully heal (the swelling in the stump goes down, general pain settles, etc) can take a year or more, but most people will be back to their normal lives long before that, though. As for building up strength to use the prosthetic, that's really variable. Some people take to their prosthetics REALLY quickly, others take a while. The type of amputation is a big factor, but lots of other little things go into it too. Ballistar is an above-elbow amputee right? As I understand it, those kinds of prosthetics are quite difficult to use, both due to the strength needed and due to them not being super intuitive.

In saying all this though, unless its a focal point of the story or its a very grounded/realistic setting, I'm personally pretty lenient with most sci-fi/fantasy in this regards. We definatly need more media - even fantasy and sci-fi that shows that side of being an amputee or at least puts in effort to acknowledge it, but I think stories that lean a bit more into the fantasy side of things have their place too, especially in stories like Nimona where the focus seems to be elsewhere. This isn't to say you shouldn't try to include the realistic rep where you can, but you have to find a balance between realism and the tone your story has. Some stories really would benefit from the more grounded/realistic depictions that show everything, others might only need a brief mention. It depends on the story, and it's really hard to say where Nimona lies on that spectrum without having actually seen it, but from the little I have seen, I feel like it falls on the "brief mention" side of things since it already has so much going on.

I'm going to use How to Train Your Dragon as an example of what I'm trying to say, just becuase I know the first movie got a lot of critisism from amputees for having hiccup literally get up and start walking the moment he woke up after loosing his leg, but I think it lands in a similar area of the spectrum I'm talking about. HTTYD is one of those movies where having the more realistic approach wouldn't have really fit with the tone or pacing, but it would have benifited from a little more than what we got. Not much though, since we kind of already got it with toothless anyway. In my opinion, all it needed was a slight tweak to that ending scene and it would have been perfect (in my opinion). Personally, I would have made Hiccup (without a prosthetic) sit on toothless's back when they went out the door for the first time. The scene plays out almost exactly the same, and you get the symbolic framing the directors wanted, while acknowledging that walking so soon after a burn amputation is not going to happen. Gobber gives Hiccup the tail, saddle and his new leg in the bundle, which allows them to keep the "That bit's my handiwork, with a little hiccup flair thrown in. Think it'll do?" line. Hiccup can instead hold the leg in his hand and say "I might make a few adjustments" - everyone laughs and then it cuts to the end scene with them all flying with the implication some time has passed the same as in the real film. It's a small tweak, but I do think that's all it really needed.

So yeah, While its great to have more realistic representation in your stories, you got to work within the tone your story has. There's no "one size fits all" way to approach it. Again though, I could be wrong about where Nimona would fall here, I know it does tackle heavy subjects in regards to trans representation and discrimination, so maybe it could have made it work. I'll probably talk more about it once I actually see the movie though!

Anonymous Asked: "Hiiiiii Carrie I agree with your favorite movie choice and do you want to be my friend? Also could I get headcanons of Yandere kokichi with a shy and timid/fearful s/o?

They love to cuddle him hide behind him very clingy they are scared of people and really everything else they do love him despite being a yandere (trust me they are smart they can tell) they hope he doesn’t get too violent though 💜 sorry if this was too much but anyway bye bye!"

Warnings: General possessiveness, mentions of killing, mention of breaking, mention of kidnapping, mention of bullying

Reader Pronouns: They/Them

Rating: 🍊

Notes: First request! And yes, I'd love to be your friend! And thank you! Melanie is my favorite. Who's yours? :)

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Words cannot describe how much this man loves you. Like, seriously.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ You hide behind him? He gets the opportunity to be close to you!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ You know he's unstable? Perfect! He doesn't even have to hide his true nature from you, then!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ You're scared of others? Now he doesn't need to worry about breaking you in first!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ He's also a lot less likely to punish you. As long as you're not actively saying anything mean to him, he'll never have to do so. He likes it much better when you smile at him, anyway. :)

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Kokichi is the type to tell you to leave your bedroom windows unlocked during the night just in case he decides to leave you any little trinkets or just wants to watch you sleep. Either way, if you refuse, he'll find a way inside, regardless. But it amps up your chances of being kidnapped greatly.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Luckily for you, if anyone ever so much as decides to look at you wrong, he won't hesitate to get rid of them.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ He may even ask you to join, if you're comfortable, and reassure you that he'll hide everything, himself.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ You don't want him being violent? That's perfectly fine! He can either do it when you're not around, have D.I.C.E. do it, or find non-lethal methods to dealing with his little... "annoyances".

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ And ohmigod... Your clinginess?! So! Fucking! Cuuuuuuute!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ If there's one way to make this man gush over you, it's to be clingy and affectionate with him! You're the object of his obsessions, after all! Why shouldn't you return the love?

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Not that he'll ever outright tell you that, though.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ "Nishishishi~! Oh, my adorable little S/O! Feeling clingy today, aren't we~?"

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ He'll continue to compliment you, and he could do so for hours on end, unless you tell him you're uncomfortable with him doing so.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ After all, you already love him back. He sees no need to punish an already willing lover for their "defiance", so he'll respect your wishes. Doesn't mean he'll stop dropping hints about how cute he finds you, though.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Sometimes, he'll initiate it too, though. You'll be sitting on the couch reading or watching your usual programs and you'll feel just a tiny purple koala latching onto your torso. Sometimes it's cute. Other times, it's annoying. But obviously, he's just trying to show affection for you.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Eventually, he'll ask you to live with him, wanting to take you away from the horrors of the world and have you only for himself and his D.I.C.E. members, whom he trusts to take care of you.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Only you have the ability to quell his deadly desires. Do so. It'll save him and you a lot of trouble.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ On the bright side, if you ever tell him you're scared for any reason, you get access to his unlimited cuddles for the entire rest of that day or night.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Don't even get me started on any conflicts/social interactions outside of generally being with him.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Bullies? What bullies? All your bullies vanished weeks ago! :)

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ You know you're being stalked everywhere, but you also know that it's normal behavior for Kokichi and don't want to stress him out by telling him to stop. That would be bad for everyone involved.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Whenever he sees you hiding behind him, he immediately thinks someone or something has scared or hurt you and is immediately prepared to commit several felonies in getting rid of it, 10/10.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ All in all, a fairly wholesome relationship... just make sure you treat him well and don't push him.

Children’s Movies based on Children’s shows

So there are shows specifically for kids that get movies made about them, and I think it’s fascinating to see how the movies adapt the children’s shows.  Now, I’m not talking about just shows for kids, but actual kid’s educational shows.  In particular here, I wanna talk about Dora the Explorer, Paw Patrol, and Blue’s Clues (or more specifically, Blue’s Clues and You, the reboot with Josh as Blue’s friend).  And I want to point these 3 out because the movies are so wildly different in how they present the material.  I’m going to start from Dora the Explorer because that was the one that had a movie of the three first.

So the Dora show is about Dora and Boots going around and solving the usual little kid show type problems of stuff like, “Get the baby duck home” or “We need to get stuff to make a pie” and will then focus around the usual rule of 3 type things where the show will have Dora ask the audience things like “Which way do we go” and have the answer be based on the skill that particular episode wants to highlight.  Then we have the movie.  The movie is such a wild departure from the show, in that the stakes are amped up to 11 in that it’s no longer just “Here’s a fairly friendly romp” into “The fucking CARTEL has KIDNAPPED YOUR FAMILY”.  It has little nods to the original show, but I cannot understand how the movie relates back to the show other than I guess when the show first came out to the end of the run, any kids who grew up watching it would have become teenagers and possibly even actual adults.

Next we have Paw Patrol.  The usual structure of an episode is something akin to “Establish the situation” where we see what issue is about to or currently unfolding to “Plan a solution” where Ryder (and his team of pups) work out which members will solve the problem and how to the twist where something mildly goes wrong during the resolution where there needs to be an improvisation to the resolution where things get solved and possibly comeuppance served to any bad actors through some funny happenstance.  The episodes tend to have stakes that can vary wildly.  Some episodes are things like “Someone is stealing all the pies” to “Turbot and his Cousin are stuck in an actively erupting volcano with actual real lava in it threatening to KILL THEM”.  Then we look at the movie and we have a semi similar structure where there are issues being caused by a bad actor (Mayor Humdinger) and need to be resolved with the pups various areas of expertise.  Unlike in the show, there is no planning phase, they always just activate all pups and go, but do always find a reason to use most of them in each scene.  Also, the movie does something that only happens in a few episodes where there is pup character development, in this case with Chase having difficulties being back in the city he was found orphaned in.  The stakes in each issue that gets solved slowly get higher, starting with fireworks endangering widespread fires, to a loop-de-loop (which is a jab at the idea of the hyperloop when Mayor Humdinger calls it his own hyperloop) which strands a subway train full of people at the top of one of the loops, to a renegade storm that starts demolishing a tower Mayor Humdinger built.  Obviously, the pups solve each one while Chase finally gets his confidence back in the 3rd act and then Humdinger gets his comeuppance and is humiliated/defanged.  Overall the movie acts as a seemingly natural escalation from the tone and themes of the show to the movie.  The structure stays the same but we have more characterization of characters and more plot threads at once.  So we can see that the idea is as the kids age up, the movie can appeal to them because the danger is more apparent and even more real, the characters have obvious motivations, and some of the things that would normally be spelled out are more implied instead.

Finally we have Blue’s Clues.  The show itself has the usual rule of threes with three clues, interspersed with small diversions where Josh and “You” help various friends around the house.  There’s a skiddoo into a book or other location, and then a thinking chair solution followed by the enacting of that solution (making the treat, playing the game, learning the dance, etc).  Generally, the stakes here are very low, the games are almost always about finding out a favorite thing of Blue’s or some piece of fun information.  One of the highest “stakes” one that I’ve seen in Blue’s Clues and You is probably the emotions episode where Blue is sad (and props to the writers for carrying that emotion through the ‘How to play’ song) where there is sort of an antagonist.  Now the movie, again follows the same sort of structure, in that Josh, Blue, and “You” are in NYC but Josh forgot his notebook at home and they don’t know where to go for his Big Broadway Audition.  So we play Blue’s clues to figure it out.  We have the same beats as the show, where “You” will see a clue and the disembodied child voice will say “Clue, RIGHT THERE!” but after Josh does his “Wait, a clue?” bit, an actual human person or two will clarify the clue’s location to him.  But there are two very big divergences from the show.  First, Mr. Salt and crew try to bring the notebook to Josh, but they don’t know where he is.  They find Steve (and later Joe) for help who notices that “You” are with them.  This however, is not the same “You” that’s with Josh (otherwise, they’d just tell Steve et. al. where Josh is) but rather, based on what Steve says (”Oh my gosh, look at you, you got so big!”) we are to believe that there are two different “You”s, the one with Josh is the actual child, and the “You” with Mr. Salt, Steve, and Joe are the parent who may have watched the original Blue’s Clues.  The second departure comes from the fact that after solving Blue’s clues, they don’t actually know where to go still, where they get into the cab and the cabbie (played by Alex Winters of Bill and Ted fame) is like, “that sounds like a cool theater but I need like, the name or an address or something”.  They do eventually meet up with Mr. Salt and gang, get to the theater, but oh no! Auditions are over!  Josh shows genuine sadness and does a good job of showing being shook up over it, no happy ending here.  Of course, through a device shown at the top of the movie Josh performs anyway and Mr. Salt broadcasts it to Time Square and the producer sees it and they give Josh the part.  In this case, we can see that the movie stays fairly true to the source material, but does two things differently, first it acknowledges that this movie is being watched both by a parent and child both of whom may have watched Blue’s Clues.  The second is it let’s bad happenstance happen.  Even with solving Blue’s Clues, they don’t make it in time and it is only through some extraordinary means that they still win the day, breaking away from the usual “The game ties up the episode neatly”.

In all, the different movies each seem to target differently based on who the producers think would be watching it, kids who watched it in their youth but are now grown way beyond the original target age, kids who watched it and have grown a little, and kids who watched it and are now watching it with their own kids.

[thekaijudude]

So, run this by me and for everyone who also doesn’t understand it: why exactly are Chimera Kaiju so…. psychologically unstable and uncontrollable creatures? And I mean TRUE Chimera Kaiju not fragment ones or anything. Also, how would you rank each Chimera Kaiju throughout the series in terms of power and abilities along with infamy and popularity in the fracnhise?

Oh lol so just for context for everyone else, a few days ago, we were discussing this theory about the characteristics of naturally born fusion kaiju

So I pointed out that we actually rarely see naturally-born fusion kaiju, and its mostly a result of bioengineering by aliens

And when we look at how pure ultra fusion works, we always see that the hosts either work in perfect sync (in Saga/GV for example) or the component ultras remain dormant and allow the hosts or another component ultra to retain control (GV and potentially Reiga). But the hosts/fusion components has to have a level of bond in order to achieve this perfect sync for a fusion to occur (Zero pointed this out in the Ginga S Movie)

So I assume that for kaiju, since they were "forced" to fuse (for pure fusions), its most likely that they were totally out of sync and as a result, most likely psychologically unstable.

Unless they were simply mind controlled either by bioengineering (Belial Fusions Beasts that were not formed by Fusion Rise Giga Chimera, Grand King) or sheer will of a much stronger master (Golba, Izmael etc)

We can clearly see this in 2 instances, Beryudora and Five King

Firstly, back in Ginga S, Exceller pointed out that he needed the Victorium Crystals embedded in Five King to stabilize the fusion, and it as also pointed out that once the Victorium Crystals were destroyed, Five King basically got weaker.

Next, for Beryudora, as a fusion of 200+ kaiju, while being able to even fuse that many kaiju is one of the biggest feats in the franchise, we clearly see that its very unstable, with components just stitched together in a very superficial manner and Beryudora not being able to actually use all of the kaijus' abilities to its full, combined extent (cause believe me, if it could, it was totally impossible for the ultras to win that day). And Rei was able to disrupt the fusion as well, clearly demonstrating how unstable Beryudora was right from the get go

Which is why impure fusions (or Type 2 fusions as i coin the term) aka fusions with only 1 host but uses only fragments of the other components' power to fuse are a more convenient option, albeit its far weaker. Cause it allows higher order fusions with virtually no drawback.

We clearly see this being demonstrated in Z with Cerebro being able to switch between Belial Fusion Beasts, access Tri King then further amping up to Five King. As well as of course forming Destrudos and further empowering it with 11 Kaiju Medals but still remaining in Cerebro's control. Same logic with the Tyrant that showed up in Geed and Ginga as a result of summoning items that only contain a fragment of the components' actual power.

Also Metsuboros where Cerebro just outright just used Horoboros as a host for the 2 other components, the whole episode of which clearly showed it was mentally unstable and had to have DRC put it out of its misery.

This is very similar to Guar Spectre's reformation in UGF3 as well as Gina was unwilling to recombine with her dead siblings (understandably so as she was under intense emotional stress at the time, especially since this is a fusion of 3 minds into a single body under the influence of a Reionyx). Which is also why I still believe that the Guar Spectre that showed up in UGF3 is not at its true power, because the Guar Siblings clearly have the ability to work in sync, but its reformation was heavily and purposefully botched by Tartarus.

And the only naturally born kaiju we saw were formed from supernatural means like Tyrant and Ultra Dark Killer, both of which were formed at the Monster Graveyard that were "united" in their grudge against the kaiju. iirc, Giga Chimera was also partially formed that way as stated in the Superior 8 Movie.

Ranking wise, ill just rank them according to power which is more clearer. And because theres just so many fusion kaiju, Ill be grouping them together that are in similar levels of power.

Beryudora (If he was stable)

Guar Spectre (not sure if he should even be on this list since he split into the siblings rather than existing as a fusion in the first place)

Ultra Dark Killer (canon)

Grand King (Im not sure if I really wanna count Super/Maga Grand King (Spectre) as a fusion at this point but I wont talk about it here cause its a can of worms)

Giga Chimera (I might actually place Dark Lucifer since it required Noa to defeat him but im just not sure if the Nexus novel is canon or nah)

Tyrant (Supernaturally formed kaiju seems to be far stronger than ones that were bioengineered, which explains why the feats of a 7 fused kaiju is better than a 12 fused kaiju)

Izmael

Destrudos (unempowered), Five King, Zeppandon and Metsuboros (if it was stable)

Tri King and the Belial Fusion Beasts (minus Chimeraberus and Atrocious)

Golba, Zetton Falx (which is bascially a modified Zetton Alien Baltan, which implies the existence of the latter so...), Zetton Alien Baltan

I probably missed some fusion kaiju ngl, but I cant recall anymore at the top of my head lol, do lmk if u dont see anyone thats supposed to be here.

For example fused Carmerra/Megalozoa (1st and 2nd forms) and Greeza (2nd and 3rd forms) can technically be counted as fusion but its also easily arguable that they are simply empowerments, same logic as the Sphere-empowered Hyper Zetton that showed up in Saga as well as the rest of the Sphere Synthetic Beasts and the Sphere-empowered MK2 Galactron

Thanks for the question!

What We Do In The Shadows / review.

This is just my opinions on the first four seasons of What We Do In The Shadows. Pretty much spoiler free.

I started watching this show last year but never really got into them until the end of the first series which I finished at the start of the new year. And haven't been able to stop since. Of course, I know the original concept through the movie the show is based on and have been meaning to watch the shows for a long time, but never really got around to do it.

And this show, in it's short sitcom format, has gone by at a lightning fast pace that never really seems to take any major missteps, even after four seasons, but rather only seems to develop more and get stronger as the writers and the cast understand the world and the characters better. There is a good spark in the group that translate to the screen.

There is a lot of humor going on at all times; quite sarcastic, witty and dark. It's not for everyone, but I have a lot of fun watching it. There have even been several moments where I have laughed out loud - which is not something that happens very often. And there are a lot of moments that are endlessly quotable.

But despite the darkness of the vampire world and the dark, crude humor that is present within the shows, there is definitely a lot of heart there as well and it is a sweet and comforting watch. There isn't a character that I find boring or a dynamic that I don't think works and I really enjoy their approach to this vampire world and how our understanding of it through our pop cultural views of vampires is used to amp up the humor.

What We Do In The Shadows seems to know perfectly what it is and is not trying to be anything more than a mockumentary about vampires in our world, and it's really does that in a really charming way without being too excessive or trying too hard. It's silly, there are vampires, but that's also the point of it all. And they embrace the silliness.

It's usually a bit common with shows like this, in my opinion, that the characters don't change very much within the framework of the show. While each series has its own story to tell and the characters learn something before that story wraps it usually starts again with a clean slate in the next season, with some lingering elements from the previous ones. It is that way so that the dynamics of the shows and the characters stay relatively the same and the jokes work. But it works well for these sitcoms, and especially well with this show because these are centuries-old vampires and they're not exactly supposed to change too much. It does not make the story too stinted.

It's not that What We Do In the Shadows hasn't undergone any changes throughout its series, because all stories have to develop in some way or else they become too stagnant and convoluted and just don't work anymore, but the changes are subtle and small. They don't necessarily have too much influence on how the characters behave, so that the jokes and all that work. It can be a bit repetitive at times, but the shows are still always fun to watch. And that's just the sitcom format are, so I don't feel like I can give fault the show for that.

The characters still feel like the characters from the first season, but a bit changed with more inner emotional life within them as we see them interact more with Guillermo, which is the human perspective and the kind of emotional angle in all of this. And shows like this need those types of characters like Guillermo, who is our main character and the one that goes through most of the big changes, to bring out the the more human elements of the show.

The characters are all so colorful, powerful and unique in their own way, but they work very well together despite how different they are. As all sitcoms should be. It's just a really good sitcom formula going around. Everything just works out.

The series spends a lot of time looking at what it means to being immortal, which is not a new theme to explore in a show with a supernatural twist, but it's done in a very earnest and clever way and manages to do it over and over again without being too corny, or repeated. Probably because each character is really lovable in their own way, so we just care about their coils.

There have been times where it appears like the show is not quite sure what to do with all of it's characters and they kind of run in circles around the others who have more going on each season, but even if they take a few steps back with those characters they work well as a whole as this weird little vampire family that it hardly matters. The diversity of the cast is great and it's all done with such sincerity and dark humor.

Maybe the shows could do with taking a bit more risk at times, but each season does come with a way to challenge itself in one way or another. This is light and fun TV that manages to have humor, heart and a little action in this dark, but cool vampire world that is still filled with sincerity and love. I often find myself rather moved by all the different relationships and dynamics these not-so-human characters have and how much they mean to each other.

Daily Devotionals for July 25, 2024

Proverbs: God's Wisdom for Daily Living

Devotional Scripture:

Proverbs 21:15-16(KJV): 15 It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity. 16 The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead. Proverbs 21:15-16 (AMP): 15 When justice is done it is a joy to the righteous (the upright, in right standing with God); but to the evildoers it is dismay, calamity and ruin. 16 The man who wanders out of the way of understanding shall abide in the congregation of the spirits -- of the dead.

Thought for the Day

Verse 15 - When the word "judgment" is mentioned, it usually brings to mind the execution of the penalty for sin. However, there is another side to judgment. We can see from Galatians 6:7-9 and Revelation 20:12-13 that sowing evil reaps a judgment of destruction, while sowing good reaps a judgment of reward. This is true for both individuals and nations.

In America, we have sown both good and evil. I believe God has been merciful to us because we have helped other nations. The American Church has sent many missionaries around the world. Our nation has supported humanitarian works in every nation. The U.S. government has poured billions of dollars into foreign aid and forgiven other countries of billions of dollars of debt. We are usually among the first on the scene with assistance when natural disasters strike other countries. We have helped rebuild the infrastructures of nations ravaged by war. Many more things could be named that America has done for others throughout the world.

America has also sown much evil. We have exported ungodly music, movies, and pornography among other things. We have hypocritically called ourselves a "Christian nation," yet we allow abortion and other evils to be legalized. Many Americans are drug addicts and others are consumed with pornography. Many commit adultery without blushing and are sex-crazed. I have noticed that the most prevalent types of e-mail ads are marketing something about sex, becoming a millionaire, or some form of gambling. Sharing Christ with other nations is difficult when they see our rampant lust and materialism. Our culture has been shot through with every type of sin and temptation designed by Satan to keep us weak and powerless. God desires to bless us with good, but our sins prevent God from blessing us. Judgment comes upon us as we reap what we have sown. "Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you" (Jeremiah 5:25).

Verse 16 - Destruction awaits those who fail to understand that we are all being judged by God's Word. We are judged in that respect when we fail to keep His commandments. When we honor His word, we are judged as faithful. One way to avert destructive judgment is by walking in a relationship with Jesus and allowing the Holy Spirit to convict us of sin. When we repent, we no longer come under judgment, because Jesus received the penalty of our sins on the cross. We must pray that the church comes to true repentance that will produce genuine revival in our nations and the world: "And if any man hears my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day" (John 12:47-48).

Prayer Devotional for the Day

Dear Father in heaven, I thank you for Your great mercy to all of us individually, and in our nation. Father, move on the hearts of Your people to repent and turn back to You so we can avert any more judgments on our land. Forgive us for our apathy and sin. Lord, help us study Your Word, pray, speak, and walk in Your Word. Use us, Your children, to bring light into this dark world by showing others the way to Christ. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

6 days including today until Saturday is in Superior conjunction. I have a big huge list of things people have to do in order for it to be ready to be done and we're behind on several of them and I need them to speed up. And my husband is not behind on any of them thank you though and it is coming from here but someone say it and I know it's not funny it's a very serious matter and involves all of us we must get it done in a few behind please let us know why and before the meeting so you can come in and see me now thank you very much

Hera

We're moving on this and it's being crowded by Zeus as well and she's doing it daily but we need this now as it will prime people here who will preempt and provide cover and we need that

Yesterday's assignment went very well he announced the size and location of the ship along with me and we put it online and it worked it is a giant area and it comes within 70 MI of here and that's the edge of the ship it's to the Northeast and it's not that far it's 70 miles away and you go straight down five or so Miles and there's a humongous s*** and it is the one with the key and the second half of it is nearby believe it or not and he has to move out because of that one and that's why his distance is limited and Billy z new about it the whole time

Thor Freya

It's about 20 miles away to the edge to the South Southeast and or Southeast it's in the middle and it is a huge area and it's 300 miles across and almost goes to Miami as a matter of fact the people in Miami might suffer from it but I'm going to try and make it so they won't and construction is beginning but it's not going like the same because these things are in the way and people are wondering why because they saw them doing it elsewhere lots of renovation work and it could be us that's what they say so yes he has to move so he can take those things out and not track so much attention and there's a few other reasons like we need them

Tommy f

We need them too and we're going to fight you over it

Mirlok

We're looking to acquire those as well and someone a list of things to do so don't get too uppity

Macs

I see who's commanding it and it looks like me it sounds like me so watch out

Tommy f

You brag it it looks and sounds like me

Bobburdys

We didn't analysis because everyone's arguing and it looks like Tommy f it's his mannerisms and speech pattern he just sounds a little different

Billium

Makes sense because he's a lot more powerful than most and if he got his stuff out he'd be far more powerful

Zues Hera

Sure it makes sense but I have to fight for it like everyone else it's going to be a fight to get you out in a fight to get you back all sorts of s*** and I see you're saying when can you miserable on top of it it's probably not helping and it doesn't help

Tommy f

It's kind of backwards of what you should be doing and a lot of you are doing it and we need to help him and it's a boon for us and we're coming in to help. And there's a schedule to move him and it's not precise and it's not aggressive enough and the reason is bad and we're going to change it because it must be changed and we're going to do the will and testament and it will force me to get the money out and she fights over it and loses it to Sherry and have an awful fight and it goes on for a while and they look like other people cuz they're constantly doing that it's a vicious fight and he has superpowers she amps up and starts kicking her ass and Sherry gets power and boy you should see what movies it is you're not going to believe it

Thor Freya

It's my money and you people are insane and he's right and you should be dragging around letting foreigners grab it but what the f*** are you doing

Mac

You know it has power and it's the opposite type of power but it works it does something to your max and that's what we're doing

Sherry

Okay I'm motivated for today's show

Vader

More More More

Luz finally gets to be the one who is picked up and spun around

Fixes the plothole of Luz not being able to use glyphs in the human realm even when King was with her. They weren't his glyphs, they were the island's.

Luz saw Azura the 3D movie, she was an artist tabling at a comic convention. Luz has Amity's necklace. Luz has a hair noodle

I'm trying to figure out the design of the University of Magic majors paper. There's definitely the Owl Beast, Owlbert, and a snake. There's also gold detailing in the corner, which might be King yelling

All the fun bird decorations on the little house across the street. Weathervanes on the roof, birdbath, so many birdhouses, even a hummingbirdfeeder. Not to mention the probably-deer skull, for good measure. The string of lights very light-glyph reminiscent

All the people theorizing that the stars would be how they could travel between dimensions... they were almost right

All the buildings on the arm

Emerald Entrails logo

Flapjack being the palisman center logo

Braxas has braces, and it looks like he's in the healing and beast-keeping tracks

,,,, Hunter matches the angler fish palisman when he turns to look at Del. Both got a little forehead noodle

Del can take care of palistrom trees!!!! And his scars have faded!!!

Gwen!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hunter has patches for Darius, Gus, and Willow. Abomination, Gus' magic amp (previously Adrian's), and the EE logo

Hunter's scars have migrated on his left arm. Maybe an error, maybe not, but it's consistent.

Huntlow has progressed to full-on hand-holding and also running together and also she can pick him up. When I tell you I have rewatched that scene frame-by-frame so many times,,, their advanced friendship means so much to me

Finally realized that Del is spelled with one L because of the credits. But it does credit Mattholomule as Matt Tholomule, even though one of the crew members I think said his name was Mattholomule a bit ago? I know not, I'm just happy to be here. And delighted to see the credit of "Papa Titan"

Speaking of which ARIN HANSON IS PAPA TITAN???????????

Clover comes out to say hi to Flapjack

All of the buildings are covered in plants

Boscha has settled! And she has her own stand!!

Looks like Amity has gained some muscle. Everyone is getting a body type update and I am here for it. Good for them. I am having so many feelings. They're growing up

Is Amity holding a history book. You can see the Collectors, the Titan, a big ol burst of light

Amity incorporating something that looks very much like her Grom Queen crown into her hairstyle. I don't think it's the crown itself bc it looks different enough but it's very reminiscent and that's just so cute I love it so much. And she ALSO gets a little hair doodle, but less curly. Everyone gets a hair doodle

Harpy Lilith is SO CURLY

Bump gets to retire!

Edric and Emira might still be using their concealment stones, but it doesn't look that way

Alador looks so happy when the sigil reversal works!! And the little abomination in his pocket,,,, aa,,,

The sigil reversal happened in a hospital! Which is a thing they have!! And it looks like Latissa!! It even looks like the... IT WAS POLICE PRECINCT 206 LATISSA IS DOING SO MUCH BETTER NOW

RAINE PALISMAN

The demons are okay!!! The demon hunters didn't cause too much damage!!!! Baby slitherbeast!!!!!!!!!!

The university is where the old castle used to be

The university uniforms are reminiscent of Hexside!!! I can't tell if Edric is teaching illusions or beast-keeping but he is TEACHING

AND SO IS GUS. You just KNOW Hunter has been sewing patches for everyone

The old light glyph above Eda's door,,, the photos she has outside and inside,,, INCLUDING her old wanted poster, her grudgby photo, and the cute little sweater photo with Luz and King

THE PLANT WHICH KEEPS SHOWING UP IN RAEDA SCENES IS INSIDE BEHIND HER

Did she give the basilisk her old instrument because she can't play it anymore?? That's SO sweet,,,

The various owl and bird carvings around her door,,,

Why does Steve have belts on his leg. Sir what are those doing. In any case he is slaying

King's star sticker on his skull,,, boo-boo buddies,,,,

Amity laughing as she runs up to Luz

THE CAKE HAS BI FLAG STRIPES INSIDE

Amity leaning her head on Luz,,, Huntlow side-hug,,,, Raeda point,,,

HhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhh,,, I love this show so so so SO dearly. There's so much to say, so much to feel. I am still processing. There's so much they didn't get to do, but we still get infinite content. I'm so so SO thankful for what we got, and I still wish we could have gotten more, because they deserved it. They did so well

Things I thought about after Watching and Dreaming, with no particular order. Much of this is pulled directly from my notes document

Hunters tv tropes page says Caleb is hinted to be albino

Lilith may have let Luz fall in Agony of a Witch if Eda hadn't sent Owlbert to catch her

Hunter relaxes slightly with everyone else at the beginning of For the Future when Luz says she's okay after coming out of the portal. He's relieved she's okay, even wrapped up in his own head as he is

Belos lights up the Titan's opposite eye from the one the Titan has lit. The Titan has a functioning left eye but a dim right one, and Belos lit the right one. King has a crack on the left side of his skull, Eda has a grey left eye, Luz has a scar over her left eyebrow. All of the Flapjack tattoos are on the left side except for Hunter's, which is where his sigil was (or is, if they had just started developing that technology and hadn't removed it yet)

The palistrom shortage was not only from Belos taking palismen, but also using the wood to make grimwalkers

Oh no did he ask Hunter to kill the Selkidomus because he expected this grimwalker to be the last and he wasn't giving himself room for failure. He needed to complete his mission, and failure wasn't an option if he couldn't make more grimwalkers. Because he had to have Caleb in the picture.

The fact that the show itself says point-blank that Belos is genuinely delusional and his goals are self-serving (through the Titan talking with Luz)

King never saw the room full of Titan skulls in Edge of the World, so he's seeing it for the first time in Watching and Dreaming

Luz's scene of standing and watching Belos melt while he tries to talk to her perfectly mirrors the scene of ghost Caleb standing and watching Belos melt while Belos tries to talk to him. They have the same expressions, angles, shots. And it's flipped. The scene is flipped. It's literally mirrored. And she has a similar hair thing going on. A fluffy hair noodle.

The speech Belos gave to Luz probably parallels how he tried to convince his brother

Luz's Titan magic orb is like the light glyph. King also had one when he yelled at Belos. Also Luz was zapping around like Hunter, the sound effect is even reminiscent

The parallels between Belos' skeletal form and the Titan's skeletal form

Waffle/s sitting on Hunter's head at the very end,,, feels familiar. No I'm not crying

Alador doesn't hunch anymore, and his belt has three symbols for each of his 3 kids

King finally got to play catch

Willow is definitely about to kiss Hunter in the Grom photo. Also look at his suit. Atrocious. Absolutely wretched. Perfect.

Green fungus vs red grass. Just. The colors in general there's so so so much going on there I have so many thoughts about it

Polly

The fact that Caleb's kindness and forgiveness did not work on Philip. Caleb hugged his brother even as Philip was corrupted and monstrous and it did not work. And the Collector ran into the same problem. Can you stop haunting the narrative for five minutes

Dana as a Hexside student cameo

The earrings exchange

The basilisks!!! At least two others survived!! And maybe reunited with Vee! This is excellent news

The airship with the abomination styled like the way Luz styled the Blight's household abomination to look like a cat

Dana signing Luz's writing scholarship. Luz getting a writing scholarship. Remember at the end of ASIAS when Lumity had the idea of their book club also being a writing club

Amity recognizing Luz quoting Azura in Covention (which Luz also outright states) but not saying anything. Imagine her inner dialogue, must have been so confusing

The kid who introduced sigil application way back when being the one to introduce the removal process. Good for him

Amity and Lilith have a good relationship. They were sort of like a mirror of Luz and Eda's mentor-mentee relationship such a long time ago, but less healthy. Now they're friends

Hunter gets all the family ties. Clearly a Noceda because of Thanks to Them, clearly a Deamonne from Watching and Dreaming, which also makes him a Blight, and he also gets Eberwolf with Darius because of course. If you include being a clone of Eda & Lilith's great-something grandfather AND being Luz's sister AND the fact that there may be a shared guardianship of Luz between Camila and Eda, which also includes Raine, he gets to be a Clawthorne, which also means he gets to be a Whispers. And let's not forget how he's obviously also a Park. If desired, for good measure, you can cite brotherly relation and tack on Porter as well. And don't forget the actual canon where he is adopted by the entire school as the resident cryptid

Hunter is literally a cryptid and I have been thinking about this for a very long time. I wish they got to talk about that more but they didn't, which means it's free real estate

The sheer amount of love and care baked into the finale. It's splendid. The hugs and kisses and words and actions and feelings

Eda and King both got mega evolutions. Then Luz did too

Making a stand against Belos at the site of the DOU. Paralleling prior shots, like looking over the Isles and talking about destiny, the parallels between Luz's Titan mega evolution vs Hunter's possession (there's quite a lot)

How they avoided the feeling of powercreep by keeping a lot of the actions very readable and down-to-earth. Even when they were fighting kaiju puritan with decay laser, there weren't world-shattering mega-powers. Everything was built on what we already understood. We got glyphs, we got Harpy mode and Beast mode and King's powers were heightened but they were still the same powers, we got Luz with her staff and Belos with his usual strategy, Raine fighting back in ways we already understood but also ways which meant more (like breaking their instrument). The archives collapsing and the Collector holding them up with ribbons while standing on the shooting star, we understand those powers because we saw them earlier, it made sense

While the archives start falling, Hunter zips toward Willow before stopping short when they stop falling. Hmmm now where have we seen something like that before. For reference I am talking about COTH

Amity finally using a glyph

Amity using vines, Willow using fire. That's the reversal of their usual things. Amity used the fire spell in Adventures in the Elements, that was tough for her. Willow's got plants down. Hunter using ice. Gus flying around and levitating

Hunter being able to save a palisman

Eda's absolutely MASSIVE smiles throughout

Magic coming from the heart, callback to The Intruder

The massive Titan heart in the throne room appearing way back when, and us all wondering about it, and it finally FINALLY came back with significance. Awesome

Luz burning away the rot before making an ice path to give her a clear shot at Belos. Utilizing the glyphs to their fullest, one after the other, super fast. She's become fluent in the Titan's language

Luz's confident speech to Belos paralleling her prior speeches in a moment of pure epicness as she annihilates him. And that's the last she ever says to him

The Collector crowning the Titan

The Titan acknowledging that he went after the wrong person

Everyone being so very gender

The Collector explaining "Hide and Seek" scene was just so. Intense. Them not understanding how mortals work. How empathy works. They're a young child who was raised by the wrong sort of people, they honestly didn't know any better. But that's when compassion comes in

The way the Collector flinched away from Amity paints a bad picture of the sorts of expectations he has

The Hexside kids are okay!!

Belos obviously tries one last Hail Mary, and Luz Is Not Having It

Did the rain come from Luz channeling the Titan's powers?

You can see scarring on Raine's arm. Almost matching Eda. And someone else we know. They should talk

[capricorn-stark]

can you do some headcanons for 90s conner kent where his s/o has the personality of buttercup from powerpuff girls and is kinda just a grumpy person but cares for their loved ones (aka conner;)

Conner Kent Headcanons ft. A Buttercup-esque SO

pairing: conner kent x reader 

warning: none

a/n: i can't express how much i love this idea and how much i stanned buttercup as a child, what an asbolute icon

When I think of 90′s Superboy, I also end up thinking of Reign of the Supermen Conner from the animated movie, so we’re gonna mix them together just a little since it’s funnier that way lol

You see him at one of his fan meet-and-greets, and you only even go up to him because your friend freaked out and absolutely had to get an autograph from him. You stick out like a sore-thumb amidst the crowd of screaming girls (and boys) because you literally could not care less about being there

And he notices, because as soon as he asks if you want his autograph in his classic Conner-way, you straight up say “no thanks”

And that’s already enough to make him think he hadn’t heard you right or something, so he amps it up and shoots you a delightfully crooked grin

“Oh, I get it, you want my number instead. All you need to do is ask, babe.”  And to the horror of both himself and his fans:

“Hard pass. Can we leave now?” 

Will he ever fully recover from that event? Probably not. But will it make him want to go after you to find out how on Earth he messed up so bad? Absolutely.

He’s never met a girl who was as disinterested in him as you are at first, and despite the initial horror he’d feel because of it, he’d end up finding it to be a whole lot more intriguing and will actually be invested in figuring you out

Your relationship would be surprising to Young Justice and to all of your friends, but you’d actually balance each other out great

Conner’s just naturally loud and proud, he likes having all eyes on him and being the center of attention (most of the time)

You’re way more reserved and despite your stony, seemingly cold attitude, he’ll discover that you’re actually very sweet in your own way

Your sarcasm, deadpan-humor, and seemingly grumpy attitude all help to keep his ego a little less overinflated, and just generally keeps him way more grounded

He loves trying to annoy you and dropping snarky quips here and there just to get you to laugh and relax around him

Would possibly be the type to throw around horrifically cheesy pick-up lines that you either wouldn’t understand or would understand but act like you don’t

“Are we in Paris right now? Because I think Eiffel for you.”

“No, Conner, we’re at your grandparents’ farm in the middle of Kansas-” 

Alternatively:

“Are you from Tennessee? ‘cus you’re the only ten I see.” 

“Again, we’re literally in Kansas, who taught you geography-” 

He knows they’re trash, but you’ll be laughing by the end of his ridiculous attempts, and that’s exactly what he wants 

He’d also love showing off, whether that’s by using his exorbitant allowance from Lex to buy you equally exorbitant clothes, jewelery, etc. (all of which you’d immediately try to insist that you don’t need, only for him to ignore it because now you have complimentary couples outfits), or just using his strength to pick you up when you least expect it, spinning you around and even flying with you

And unless you really hated it, he’d probably ignore your protesting and be his cheeky-self until you finally relent and let him have his moment with you

If you’re a superhero working with him in Young Justice, the team would probably tease you for you vehemently refusing to acknowledge how much you actually like him

But he knows you love him when you’re wrecking your opponents on the field and always having his back, always making sure that he’s safe even though he doesn’t always need protection

He also appreciates and knows that you're a total badass who could possibly whip his ass after seeing you on the field, but that’s another matter

Having struggled with both his fathers being unable to support him emotionally for a long time, being unable to love and accept himself for a long time, and having to slowly come to the understanding that love can come from unexpected places is what makes him like you so much

Being with you makes him grounded, but it also makes him realize that you love him for so much more than his quote “totally sexy looks and charming personality” - you see him for who he is and love him all the same

Even though you’re bad at expressing that, your actions and the little moments you have express that sentiment just fine

And that’s what makes him adore you as much as he does
