Houston: My guy what was that about? She is smoking hot!
Lawless: Dude, I seriously felt lightning strike my heart when she looked at me. [he put his hand over his heart]/
Cozette Wren: Two idiots, I swear.
Tumblr media
Lawless: Sucks I got gym first period. Who wants to start the day like that?
Houston was glancing around as they walked through the halls waiting for the morning bell to ring: Mannnn, so many honeys! This is nothing like junior high.
Lawless: Dude chill, it's been 40 minutes since we got here. You're about to get yourself put on 16 and pregnant.
Tumblr media
Cozette Wren laughed: Why do I hang out with you two?
Houston: Cause without us your life would suck.
Lawless added: Yeah, on planet bullshit.
Houston: on repeat everyday.
Tumblr media
Cozette Wren: I GET IT. Gosh, it's too early for you two. I miss summer break already.
The boys laughed in unison then stopped in their tracks.
Houston: Ohhhh Cozy.. Look who just walked in..
Lawless taunting her: Oh shit it's Shane Doyley, your knight in shining armor.
Cozette Wren whispering in a panic: Shut up! Both of you!
Shane passed by them quickly smiling and shot them a quick head nod.
Tumblr media
Houston: Chill out Cozy everyone thinks you and Lawless are dating. Better clear that air or you won't stand a chance.
Her expression fell shocked: Wh-- What?! Lawless and me? EW! We're like siblings.
Lawless was confused: Dude what're you talking about? No one thinks that.
Tumblr media
Lawless and Cozette Wren looked at each other disgusted.
Houston busted out laughing: You shoulda seen ya'lls faces! The utter concern. BAHAHAHAHHAHA
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cozette Wren: I ought to kick your ass right here for that. You big jerk! [shoves him playfully].
Houston continued laughing.
Lawless chuckled: Damn Cozy am I really that bad to be considered as a boyfriend? Way to just break my heart. [sarcastically holds his chest].
They all let out a laugh and went towards their classes.

New Year's Predictions For 2025?
Today is the first day of winter, in 2024, but we're getting closer and closer to the new year that is 2025. Do you know what that means (in addition to sharing your New Year's Resolutions For 2025)? IT'S TIME TO SHARE YOUR NEW YEAR'S PREDICTIONS FOR 2025!
I'll go first:
RhylieTheCaterfly will get banned from Tumblr once and for all like how she did on DeviantArt.
TikTok won't get banned in the United States (of America).
Transgender people will be allowed to compete in sports, but they will be given their own sports to compete in, so they don't interfere with biological men's sports or biological women's sports.
Either "Inside Out 2" or "The Wild Robot" will win the 2025 Oscar Award for "Best Animated Feature Film".
AJ Lee will return to WWE.
Universal will start working on a live action remake/adaptation on "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964)" and/or "Frosty the Snowman (1969)".
Apple will sell the rights (or at least some of the rights) to "Peanuts" to Paramount, so "A Charlie Brown Christmas", "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown", "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving", among other classic "Peanuts" specials, will air on CBS.
The Houston Texans will go to the Super Bowl.
Shane McMahon will debut in AEW.
Elekid (Pokémon) will get his own Funko Pop.
Yeah, I know: Those were a bunch of stupid predictions I made; but they are what they are.
Now, it's your turn to share your New Year's Predictions For 2025! Feel free to share them to me via a reblog or a reply. Share as many as you want until the end of 2024!

Tumblr media
You had watched helplessly as Ed destroyed the Soviet camera. It was seated in an open space between rocks and neatly covered up until Ed ripped the boulders off and over his shoulder. There wasn’t much you could do as he took his pickaxe and savagely mangled the camera. 
Earlier, both of you had received a message about Ed’s son from the Soviets with them offering their condolences. You both were confused, and when Ed asked you to clarify, you were no help. No one from Houston had told you anything. Gordo had been acting a little weird, but it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. You suggested maybe the Soviets had been listening to your messages to your families, and there was a mix-up in translation. Either way, Ed was angry that the Soviets would even bother to mess with his head like that. So he took it out on the spy camera, much to your dismay. You hoped the Soviets wouldn’t get angry and try to harm either of you. 
Now, you and Ed were shedding your suits in the chamber before returning to the base. Once you get back inside, you immediately head for the cupboards for something to eat. Even if the food was disgusting, it did its job. You sit at the makeshift kitchen counter as Ed enters the main area. Suddenly, you hear a voice coming from the comms.
“Ed? Are you there? Ed?”
You turn in your seat at the table and watch as Ed cautiously walks to the comms screen. His ex-wife Karen is on the call, appearing very emotional. 
“It’s Shane,” Karen says, her voice cracking as she puts her hand on the screen.
Ed’s face twists into a look of shock and horror, tears brimming his eyes. His seemingly unlikely fear had come to fruition. You freeze in your seat, realizing something did happen to his son, Shane, as the Soviets insinuated. Condolences are only given when someone dies… That’s when it hits you. Ed collapses to his knees, burying his face in his hands. You’re unsure of what to do, still sitting in your seat with your food on the table in front of you. You push it aside as Ed shakily reaches up to turn off the communications. He didn’t want to hear the details of what happened right now.
“Ed?” you call softly, getting up from your sitting position and slowly walking toward him, “Are you alright?”
Ed doesn’t say a word but instead snatches the bottle of alcohol from a nearby table before spinning the top off.
“Oh no, you don’t,” you say, pulling the bottle away from Ed, “That will only make things worse.”
Ed can hardly look at you, tears falling freely down his face. He would never tell you this, but he hates looking weak, especially in front of you. He admires you in many ways, and he hates you having to see him falling apart like this. The chemistry between you was apparent, but those feelings were being shoved aside for now.
Ed walks a few short steps into the main area, where some chairs are splayed out, and he takes a seat on the floor. You sit next to him as he rubs his hands over his face. Ed punches the wall next to him angrily before pounding it again and again. You grab ahold of his wrist, stopping him mid-punch before he can split his knuckles open any further.
“Edward,” you say sternly, looking at him with concern. His eyes slowly meet yours for the first time.
You reach your hands toward Ed’s face, taking it into your grasp before moving in front of him. He lets his head relax into your palms and casts his eyes downward.
“Look at me,” you say softly as your own tears begin to burn in your eyes.
Ed’s eyes travel up to yours.
“There we go. I know this is a horrible situation, but you’re strong, and you’ve got this. You have to stay vigilant.”
“But he’s gone, Y/N,” Ed whispers, “He’s gone, and I’m here, and there’s nothing I can do.”
“You can stay focused and be tough for Shane. That’s all you can do right now, and I’m so sorry,” you frown, sniffing as tears run down your cheeks, “I’m so sorry you’re stuck here. I really am.”
Ed’s eyes squeeze shut as another wave of realization hits him. Sobs wracked his body, and you pulled his head to your chest, stroking his hair comfortingly.
“You’ll be okay. It will take time, but you will be okay again,” you say as you let Ed cry into your shirt.
You shuffle over to the wall, letting your back rest against it as Ed buries his face in your lap, curling up into himself. All you can do is run your hand over his back and through his hair as he pours out his grief. Seeing the man you look up to and have feelings for break down like this was odd, but losing a child is unfathomable. And Ed didn’t have anyone other than Shane after his and Karen’s divorce, except his colleagues, of course. But Ed had no one to run to when everything was falling apart. He especially had no one now except you, literally. Almost a quarter of a million miles away from home with no one else around to ease his pain. At least Ed wasn’t completely alone.
You feel Ed relaxing into your lap, and you figure he’s falling asleep.
“Ed? Let’s get you to your bunk, alright?”
Ed hums in response, except when you expect him to get up, he doesn’t. He turns over, presses his face to your stomach, and wraps his arms around your waist. Butterflies erupt in your belly at the close proximity. You adored Ed, but you didn’t want to take advantage of him right now when he couldn’t think straight. 
“Ed,” you draw out, but he ignores you.
Reluctantly, you move Ed off you and stand up, offering him a hand to pull him up. He takes it and stands up, brushing himself off and avoiding your gaze once again. He doesn’t let go of your hand the whole way to the bunks, and you don’t go of his either.
You watch as Ed climbs inside his bunk, and you prepare to climb into your own below his.
“Will you stay?” Ed asks quietly, and you almost don’t hear him.
“I’ll be right below you the whole time, Ed,” you say, not wanting to cross any boundaries.
“Please?”
You pause, taking a deep breath. Yes, you’re lonely, but not so much that you’d do something frowned upon. However, a situation like this just doesn’t happen- kids aren’t supposed to die before their parents. Especially when one of their parents is on the Moon. But you’d want someone to comfort you if you lost someone you loved.
You exhale slowly before climbing into Ed’s bunk and lying beside him. He reaches over you to pull the curtain closed. For a moment, the both of you just stare at each other. But you hesitantly reach out your hand to pull Ed to you. He ignores you, pulling you into him instead. You wrap your arms around him as he buries his face into your neck, tears falling onto your skin. The both of you stay like that for a while, just holding each other as Ed cries. You let him tucker himself out before falling asleep yourself. 
You aren’t sure what tomorrow will hold, but you’ll be there for Ed despite it all.

Memphis Grizzlies Add Alexander Johnson in 2006 Draft Night Deal
Tumblr media
On June 28th, 2006, the Portland Trail Blazers traded the draft rights of Alexander Johnson to the Memphis Grizzlies for a 2008 second round draft pick (Joey Dorsey).
The 2006 draft was a pivotal moment for the Memphis Grizzlies franchise. After being swept out of the first round of the playoffs for the third season in a row, the Grizzlies were looking to shore up the roster.
Grizzlies president of basketball operations Jerry West made a significant move, acquiring the eighth pick in the draft and selecting University of Connecticut leaper Rudy Gay. The club dealt Shane Battier to the Houston Rockets to secure the pick.
Also in the draft, the Grizzlies had the 24th selection and drafted Villanova University point guard Kyle Lowry. Finally, the Grizzlies also added the 45th pick in the draft through a trade with the Indiana Pacers and selected 23-year old big man Alexander Johnson from Florida State.
In his junior season, Johnson earned Honorable Mention All-ACC honors leading the Seminoles in rebounding with 7.4 RPG. He also was second on his team in scoring with 13.2 PPG, scoring 20 or more points on four different occasions.
Johnson was effective for the Grizzlies in Summer League. In southern California, he averaged 12.4 PPG, 8.6 RPG and 1.4 SPG in 20 MPG in five games before signing. The strong performance helped Johnson secure a two-year deal with the team that was partially guaranteed.
Johnson joined a Grizzlies team facing bad luck. Star Pau Gasol suffered a broken bone in his left foot while playing for Spain during the World Championship in Japan. The injury caused him to miss much of the first half of the 2006-07 season.
The Grizzlies season was doomed. Memphis dropped its first game in a triple overtime loss to the New York Knicks. After beating the Charlotte Bobcats in the next game, the Grizzlies went 5-23 over the next 28 games to fall to 6-24. Gasol had already returned from injury but the losses continued. Head coach Mike Fratello was fired and replaced by Grizzlies director of player personnel Tony Barone Sr.
The losing continued as Memphis finished 22-60 for the season. With the injuries, Johnson was given some playing time in his rookie campaign. The 6-9 big man appeared in 59 games, making 19 starts. In 12.8 MPG, he amassed 4.4 PPG, 3.1 RPG and 0.6 BPG.
Johnson was also assigned to the Arkansas RimRockers of the NBA Development League on March 1. He averaged 13.2 PPG and 8.6 RPG in five games (four starts), before being recalled by the Grizzlies on March 15.
Johnson joined Memphis for Summer League in 2007, putting up 5.3 PPG and 3.3 RPG in three games. The Grizzlies waived Johnson in the summer of 2007. He signed a deal with the Miami Heat in August.
The 2008 second rounder the Trail Blazers acquired from Memphis in the deal ended up 33rd in the 2008 draft. The Blazers drafted University of Memphis center Joey Dorsey and dealt him to the Houston Rockets in a three-team deal also involving the Grizzlies on draft night.
Tumblr media
Alexander Johnson on ending up with the Grizzlies after two draft night deals and signing with the team (via Tampa Bay Times):
"Things happen, but I'm satisfied. I'm glad I've signed. I'm good now. I'm not looking back. I'm happy and working hard and just trying to earn a living."
