this is my little puppet history headcanon that both Ryan and The professor are trapped in different ways. The professor is obviously trapped in the past while Ryan is trapped in in a sort of false heaven.

As those who make deals with devils and genies alike be carful what you ask for. So ryan is stuck "winning" puppet history where a fake professor is watching over Ryan and planning a way to do something to ryan which will make it so he either doesnt have to keep the puppet history going or can't bring back the real professor. I really like the idea that both the professor and Ryan have to save each other as they have both hurt the other (I am a ryan apologist, he didn't want to or try to kill the professor and is just an idoit {beloved} as he thought a deal with the devil wouldn't turn south). So Ryan makes a sacrifice to bring the professor back and the professor save Ryan from the fake and maybe helps him with the consciences of his sacrifice.

The puppets are saved and the professor and ryan go back to being frienemies in a lighter tone.

the shane dale beef in season 2 is truly peak cinema. the blinding pure hatred dale had for shane knocks me off my feet sometime. when shane said

"you think I'd shoot rick? That is my best friend. That's the man that I love, I love him like he's my brother. You think that's the kind of man I am? Well ought just think that through. Say I'm the kind of man who'd gun down his best friend. What'd do you think I'd do to some guy I don't even like?

that was full of nothing but malice. the man was sinister with that shit. he so genuinely wanted that man dead BAD.

Dale was walking around camp talking crazy shit about shane every single day to truly anyone that would listen.

legendary beef. we don't get men being catty towards one another enough.

I will never understand how Shane Newville can be called a hater. Yes, his letter did cause problems but he didn't do it out of malice or spite. It's so weird that so many people demonize him just because he wrote that letter 8 years ago. I even saw someone on Twitter once say Shane was never Monty's friend.

yeah i think it's mostly because of the letter being used as ammunition to attack the show, the crew and the fandom in its aftermath that Shane gets conflated with the virulence of the hatedom that followed, not helped by the title of the letter being a shade emotionally manipulative - 'to those who loved Monty' - and then his attitude throughout the letter where he posits himself as if he was Monty's only friend in the company (which was demonstrably untrue) and pinning Miles and Kerry (though not naming them, he uses their job titles so we knew who Shane was talking about) with the 'not following Monty's vision' label (especially in regards to cutting or changing fights because they didn't make sense or wouldn't have worked thematically; like Raven attacking JNPR for... some reason. or Adam and Yang having a full on fight before she lost her arm, or Pyrrha nearly beating Cinder... somehow, before getting killed because Jaune distracted her. if i recall he claimed Pyrrha was 'nerfed from being a badass fighter', and it just reminds me of the volume 1 director's commentary where they had to rein Shane in on the Black Trailer because he wanted Blake to cut the entire train in half) and acting like he was entitled to assume the director's position despite no indication he had even put his name forward for it

ultimately Shane comes across in the letter like he would've probably been happier working on Dead Fantasy over RWBY; he was in it to make cool fight scenes with Monty for fight scenes sake, not to make a show with a narrative throughline (that he utterly downplayed Miles and Kerry's involvement in writing the damn thing - which every behind the scenes featurette from the beginning had made a point of, especially volume 1's where Monty talked through his process of bringing others on - was again more ammunition people used to attack the crew and foster the 'Monty's true vision' narrative), and the letter was coming from a very skewed perspective as a result of grief and frustration (from internal and external factors; his marriage broke down, he lost his job) and while he doesn't put voice to it, his own actions as described in the letter make him come across as obstructive (very resistant to the changing of the team structure and workflow to a more professional standard) and a pain to work with (because he'd keep working on stuff that they weren't gonna do, like the aforementioned Raven vs JNPR fight, and was wasting time making tools for the new animators more familiar with Maya to use for Poser because he didn't want them to move to a new animation program after 3, if i remember rightly)

like, i don't think he wrote it in an attempt to fuel the hatedom or just to be an ass, and he did highlight some behind the scenes problems, it's just that it did end up doing a lot of damage and his skewed perspective doesn't really account for the issues he was creating or that he wasn't the only one impacted - but again, grief, frustration

it's now been eight years and i think we all should be well past it and just let sleeping dogs lie

Okay so I've done some write-ups for various fandoms in the past, and having been in the Stardew Valley for a little while now (I'm soo LATE to the game but I'm glad I get to experience it!) I thought why not a Shane fiction seeing as he is my absolute favourite character! Really be addicted to this man istg ;-; anyway, I'm not sure what write ups are like here, but I wanna share! Hope y'all like it! It's short and sweet, not great either, but I enjoyed writing it all the same ^^

The Long Walk Home

(Fic based on Shane's 8 heart event during the storm)

Pairing - Shane x Farmer (Female Y/n!)

Warnings - Mentions of sui*ide, depression, anxiety etc. Hospitals, alcoholism...

Description - After spending your evening speaking with Emily about your previous encounter with Shane at Marnie's ranch (previous heart event) an early storm roles in as you leave, taking the long walk back to your little farmhouse. It isn't until your foot bumps into something odd that you realise not everything is as it seems in Cindersap Forest...

Thunder rolled overhead. What had previously been predicted for the end of the Summer season had come early: a torrential downpour of fat, heavy luke-warm raindrops and the whip-cracking sound of clouds crashing into eachother at such an outstanding velocity that the sky tore in two with the claws of lightning bolts.

You had been perched upon a stool inside the cozy Stardrop Saloon of Pelican Town, head buried into your muddied arms with your right hand clutching onto a half-empty glass of water after a long day in the fields. Work hadn't intended to be so difficult, albeit the thought of what had happened the day previously had you wracking your brains with guilt and worry for the past several hours - even as you attempted to sleep.

"I'm sure Shane will be fine." Emily sat opposite you, her hand working a cloth inside one of the Saloon glasses as she continued, her expression attempting to be cheerful with a splash of hope, "I've known him ever since he moved here with little Jas. He's always been to himself, always here drinking..."

Your head snapped upright with a frown, "That's the point. He's always drinking, and he's always to himself..." You wavered your hand in a gesture that could only explain your worry further, "I mean- who has actually spent the time to ask him how he's really feeling?"

Emily replied with a shrug and a frown, "Nobody really gets much else out of him than the snarky replies, so nobody really bothers." She buried her hand deeper into the glass as she spoke, your eyes watching closely as the squeaking became louder,  "I do tend to get more of a friendlier conversation mind you, but that's about it, poor guy..."

"Guess I'm just worried about him is all, he does seem like a lovely person. I've spent enough time with him at the dock to see that." You murmured with a shrug.

Another splitting crash of thunder had the walls of the Saloon shake. You narrowed your eyes upward towards the celling as if you expected the entire thing to collapse under the sheer malice of such a storm. Emily too shared your concerned expression and took a step back, tipping her head a few times towards the door, "You best be off if you want to get home in one piece."

"Yeah too right," you agreed whilst scooping yourself up and fixing your boots into place, "Thanks for the chat though. I'll go see how Shane's doing tomorrow. Gonna be passing that way back home actually, I fancy a walk."

With a wave and a bow of farewell you were on your way, arms crossed to shield yourself from the debris that the wind had managed to strip from the trees as you made your way back through Cindersap Forest. The rain had practically flooded you by the time you'd taken five steps out of the Saloon, but you welcomed it. Summer had been unusually hot this year, and you and your crops needed the much needed water to moisten your dry skin.

Now with such dark, thick clouds overhead, you struggled to see a good few feet ahead of you, and the jet stream of rain didn't seem to help either.

Of course I forgot my flashlight... how could I possibly-

Clank!

That wasn't thunder...?

There it was again. That same clanking noise that sounded awfully familiar to "Beer cans...?"

There now resting cold and wet in your hand was an empty beer can after you had bent down to investigate. It had to be the same brand of alcohol as the cans you had seen in Shane's room yesterday. That's when a heavy gust of wind disturbed the forest floor and with that the sound of various other cans echoed down the pathway leading towards the edge of the forest, close to the cliffside.

Curiosity always got the better of you, you'd admit, but this was a different sort. It was anxiety bubbling away in your stomach, a knot so tight and horrifying it urged you to just go and follow that ominous trail - it was fear gnawing away at your bones...

So you followed with a frown.

A can here, a can over there... until you saw it through the flash of lightning. A silhouette of a man face down, teetering on the edge of the cliffside, surrounded by empty cans.

You could barely feel your throat vibrate when your chest constricted, letting out a terribly frightened yelp. Your feet charged aimlessly towards the scene, your heart rampaging inside your chest. You collapsed next to him, hands gripping onto the drenched blue rugged jumper as you begged for him to show you any signs of life, "Shane- come on Shane wake up!"

There was a sudden shift, and you felt yourself flopping back onto your knees with wide eyes and a slack jaw, hands now buried into your lap.

"...Y/n?" Shane barely managed to wheeze out at you, jaw clenched and eyes shut firmly. He stifled a sob, "I...I'm sorry..."

You found yourself silent and unmoving, as if you had a complete understanding of the situation and knew what to do: let Shane speak his truth. Regardless, you couldn't make much noise from your voice box through the shock anyway.

The man let out a drunken hiccup and barely managed to take in another breath as he continued, "M...My life... it's a pathetic joke."

Your eyes, heavy with sadness, caught sight of the tears that escaped his ducts. Even with such heavy rain, you could just tell that those droplets sliding down his cheek grew more heavy than the downpour itself.

Shane continued, "Look at me... why do I even try?" Sobbing again, much harder this time, Shane recoiled into himself. He felt his hand slip over the edge of the cliffside and narrowly opened an eye to take a look out into the horizon, "I'm too small and stupid to... to take control of my own life. I'm just a p... piece of soiled garbage flittering in the wind..." He jerked, having almost thrown up the incredibly high amount of alcohol he had consumed prior, and felt himself nearing the edge some more, eyes now focusing on the border of the cliffside, "I've been coming here often lately... looking down... here's a chance to finally take control of my life... these cliffs..."

You could have sworn you felt your heart shatter. You knew Shane was struggling but not like this... it had you completely broken listening to the pain in his voice. Your hands shook uncontrollably as you continued to listen.

"B... but I'm too scared-" Shane jolted again, forcing his mouth shut, "... too anxious. Just like always..."

You felt Shane's attention focus on you this time, "Y/n... all I do is work, sleep and drink...t... to dull the feelings of self-hatred." He was now angling his head towards you, deep green eyes focused on your own as you silently gasped with a visible flinch, "Why should I even go on? Tell me... T... Tell me why I shouldn't roll off this cliff right now."

A moment of clarity finally hit. You knew this was your time to speak. Shane gazed at you expectantly, deep purple hair clinging to his drenched face.

You took a deep breath, barely holding back a sob of your own, before steadying yourself to speak with a broken expression,  "The decision is your own. Just know that I'm here for you."

Shane remained silent for a moment, and another roaring crash of thunder echoed overhead. The storm should surely pass soon.

Finally, he answered, a small glint of hope now shining through the dark shadow behind those eyes, "... Thanks. I appreciate that. I really do."

Your head tipped to the side, a sad frown formed upon your face as you attempted to place your hand upon Shane's, but ultimately pulled back. Shane let out a gurgled cough and groan before attempting to lift himself, though he barely managed a few centermeters before collapsing back down, "Y/n... I think you should take me to the hospital now."

Your eyes widened, and you barely had time to even think before you were on your feet and gently scooped Shane up, letting him wrap his arms around your shoulders to keep him upright, "It's gonna be a long walk... but I'll get you there. Just don't give up Shane. Stay awake. Let me know if you need to stop or anything, okay?"

Shane whined out in pain but stabled himself against you, wincing in pain as he barely managed to stand straight. He nodded, gripping onto you as if his life depended on it- which it did, of course.

You gave him a squeeze for comfort and began your perilous walk, "I'll get you there Shane. I promise..."

***

White hospital lights hummed overhead. You found yourself waking from a short nap, head against the pearl-coloured sheets of a bed, but not your own. As you rose to sit upright, your tired eyes caught sight of Shane. He was tucked neatly under the sheets, hair now mostly dry and fluffed up, sticking in all different angles but mainly falling over his closed eyes. His chest rose and fell softly in such a way that at long last showed relaxation for such a mentally exhausted individual.

A sigh of absolute relief escaped your lungs, finding yourself gazing at the man's face in awe of how peaceful he finally seemed.

"How are you Y/n?" The voice that jolted you upright was none other than Harvey, the town doctor and one you knew well. He came to stand bedside your chair, looking down.

You offered Harvey a reassuring smile, "I'm doing okay, thank you Harvey. Just a little cold."

A small nod from Harvey reaffirmed his content with your own wellbeing. You hadn't come down with a fever, nor a cough, so you were going to be fine. He then turned his attention to Shane, "I've pumped his stomach and re-hydrated his body. He's going to be okay."

You gave Harvey a slow nod, sighing in the process as you frowned softly, eyes locked onto Shane's face as he slept. You felt the warmth of Harvey's hand meet your shoulder to offer some comfort as he spoke, "It's good you brought him in, though."

A wave of concern washed over Harvey's face as he spoke, "Too much alcohol is terrible for the body, but I'm more worried about his mental health..."

Me too... you wanted to speak that out loud, but something stopped you. For now, you just wanted to remain silent.

"Once he comes to," Harvey continued, "I'll have a chat with him about his treatment options. I know an excellent councelor in Zuzu City."

Ha... something that concrete jungle is actually good for...

You felt yourself shudder. Shane seemed so peaceful now... so content. You could hardly believe that you could have lost him tonight. If you hadn't made your way back through Cindersap, who knows what would have happened... Harvey's hand squeezed your shoulder to bring you back round, and you gazed upward to meet his eye.

"Life can be painful, sometimes..." Harvey spoke with a spark of confidence, "But there's always hope for a better future. You've got to believe in that." With that, Harvey removed his hand and gave you a smile before exiting the room. You heard the audible click of the door as it shut and felt your gaze drift back over towards Shane.

Your head tipped to the side, and with a small smile, you placed your hand upon Shane's. He stirred slightly, fingers twitching, before he too began to smile ever so slightly. You felt a jolt within your chest, a warm fuzzy feeling that completely shrouded each nerve ending within you. Tonight's events... the way you felt yourself gazing so protectively over the man ahead of you, and the idea of almost losing him had your head spinning until finally you felt realisation dig its claws into you.

You'd fallen for him. You had fallen in love, and you'd almost lost that all in one night, but here you were with your hand against Shane's own.

Now you were just thankful you had taken the long walk home.

Fic prompt #24: Stay, Please

Dustin/Hunter/Shane

(Post: All About Beevil episode with sad boi Dustin)

prompt 24 + shane/dustin/hunter. I almost strangled someone when I watched that episode, MY BOY JUST WANTED TO HELP 😭😭 also this definitely NOT micro in any sense. | more prompts to ask from

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

Dustin was a lot of things, he was the sunshine that most of the time kept the team in positive spirits, he ramblings or clumsy behavior often kept things from getting intense. His smiles and warm hugs lifted the weight of responsibilities from Shane's shoulder and allowed him to be just a boy in love, his quite whispers and loving gaze helped Hunter when guilt and pain laid heavy in crimson thunder's heart.

Dustin was also extremely sensitive to his environment, he was kind and trusting. No malice within miles of his presence, it was what got Hunter in constant fight and Shane heart palpitations whenever Dustin looked at something or someone with those big trusting brown eyes.

The latest incident was a negative consequence of this, whatever happened with Marah would effect anyone but the team knew it hurt Dustin harder because while even as a ninja he was a just a boy with a good heart who genuinely trusted a woman who just used him.

The yellow ranger has withdrew from his usual behavior, going too hard or missing completely during training, barely answering his phone and morpher, save for a attack, he was constantly putting a facade and what not. In response to him the team's red shades have drastically changed their behavior too.

Hunter was snappy and defensive most of the time, even Blake wasn't sure if he could get through his brother. The crimson thunder was definetly reminded of the time he did Dustin not much better than Marah and it was making him avoid the earth ninja at most of the time, even at Kelly's too.

Shane was trying to keep it together mostly but most knew he was panicked and kicking in over drive, he had definitely increased his check ins with every member of the team, his training was harder and he was almost hovering ovet them. He has also spent a solid of two hours convincing Hunter how storming Lothor's ship was not on cards in anyway.

But what worried them was Dustin's stubborn behavior of wanting to be alone, insisting he was fine and he just needed some time.

It was after roughly, two days of the incident when Shane dragged a equally miserable Hunter to forest, he was going to fix this mess. Dustin didn't seem like it but he was very close, for the lack of better term, with the element he practised and could often be found in the nearby woods just messing around or having a few quite moments with Shane or Hunter or both, when the three went for their regular camping dates.

This time however when Shane found him it was definitely not good, the ground beneath his feet felt like it was vibrating softly, his hand went behind him lacing with Hunter's who squeezed it back as they approached the crouched figure under the biggest tree around their usual camping spot.

Shane noded at Hunter before keeping a careful hand on earth ninja's shoulder. "Dustin?" He said cautiously. The man was definitely lost in his head before he jerked, pulling head up from where it was pressed on, his pulled to his chest, knees with his arms shielding it.

His sudden action sent his power reeling and the ground shook making Shane almost slam his head in the tree if not for Hunter, the wind ranger also thinks he heard some cracking sound from where Dustin's palm made contact with the ground but he ignored it.

"You okay babe?"

The wind ranger asked crouching infront of his yellow, who averted his gaze in a poor attempt to hide his red from crying eyes. Hunter made a sound low in his throat before coming to stand on Dustin's other side, as if shielding him from harm.

For several moments there was nothing, Shane waited and waited but nothing. He sighed softly, his yellow needed more time, he reached his hand to squeeze the nape of Dustin's neck softly, something he knew would ground the yellow ranger.

"Take your time, we will leave you alone for just today okay?" He speaks softly, prushing a little of yellow's hair back from his forehead before standing up only to feel a tug on his hand.

"Don't. Stay...please"

Shane physically felt his heart breaking at the small, shaking voice, from his peripheral he could already see Hunter sitting down beside their lion and pulling the yellow wind ranger closer to himself, making his head rest on his chest and pressing a kiss to wild brown curls.

Shane smiles as he presses himself to other side, allowing his boyfriend to pull his hand and intertwin their fingers and hold it on his lap. He himself leaned forward pressing another kiss to his temple before leaning back on the tree trunk and closing his eyes.

They are going to be okay.

[ask-shane]

why are you so sassy shane

sassy? never heard anyone call me that.

maybe you’re right… but to me it’s just the malice i’m holding in.

[cozycryptidcutie]

Watching food theory sounchallenge with mythical chef Josh (love him) BUT YOU KNOW EHAT??? They should TOTALLY make this a continuous thing. I want to see food theory sour challenge starring SMOSH king of sour himself, Shane Topp!!! Malic acid doesn’t affect the guy so it would be so funny

[hellbubu]

Right!? Or like, after staging the suicide, wait for them to start picking fights with one another and then kill them all and stage a fatal fight between them. (Cause nothing sows discord better than being suspects in a murder investigation, pretty little liars style lmao). Idk, give two of them guns and shot at the others, something like that.

Forensics were kinda there? I mean, this *ïs* the time period where Sherlock Holmes came to be. But even then! The Queen would have shut this all up! (Imagine if she had sent Ciel to shut up the scandal instead of figuring out what happened; so when he found out he just let it be? Kinda difficult to believe, but if the loophole is there...)

For real!!!! Like, he is dumb, but not THAT dumb. So he has to have malice in him to suggest this (also, why were you telling your underage nephew about these experiments to bring the death back to life in the first place????). I'd completely forgotten that UT saved his sorry ass in the Campania, and was toying with the theory of Druitt being another secret identity for UT. Theory crumbled, but it was fun to play with for a lil while.

Even if Sebastian wanted to, he couldn't possibly recommend someone (except for Agni, who would NEVER leave Soma *cries in spoiler*) half as good as him, unless it's another demon. It'd be hilarious if someone lost his soul cause he wanted an eye candy butler that spoke fluent latin xDDD

Lol, yeah, Ciel totally gives "i'm carrying a weapon for self protection reasons" vibes when he's not busy keeping that smile on his face.

(Also, how did i *just* realized that each prefect has their colour house in their name? Like, I was 'its so lame that violet is the violet house prefect lol' but it never clicked that: Blue-wer, Green-hill, Red-mond. I'm sure Yana thought it was funny and also probably easier for the readers to remember which guy belonged to which house, but still. Really? REALLY?)

Btw, that each prefect and prefect's drudge has their colour house IN THEIR EYES is wilddddd- especially redmond and joanne! Sebastian should be the only one with maroon/red eyes ¬¬ (the eye colour was, to me, another hint that Cole wasn't the 'meant-to-be' prefect of the red house, since his eyes are green)

I doubt we'll get any more characterization for Cole, but it's cool to think about it. How trauma can go in such different directions and people choose to deal with it or deal *it* to others, to get over it.

Hmm. Estoy conciente de que me crié en un pueblo chico en una provincia del interior; y pase de una escuela pública a una semi-privada que tambien era religiosa y eramos poquiiitos por grado (de 20 a 30 alumnos por año, no mas) asi que probablemente sea eso lo que coloree mi opinion. En mi escuela si hubieron algunos casos graves (todavía me siento culpable por no intervenir por mi compañerito, pero mi cerebro de 13-14 no lo veia como gran cosa sino como 'ugh, cosas de chicos' y si los profes no hacian nada...); pero no se, al punto de matar a alguien? Creo que no. Igual, the "hazing" of US sororities (and of course, high school bullying), at least in media, has no equal. It'd be interesting to know if this kinda thing keeps happening on the UK and their universities, tho! I dont even know if they keep the house system at uni level...

The P4 are just idiots. They couldn't stop and think for one fucking second. Like, I can think of various ways to deal with the situation. But, you know, like Shane said, "It’s very easy to condemn from our vantage point in history. And so we do condemn! Wholeheartedly!" We live in a time where I can open YouTube and listen to how a serial killer hides the bodies or some mysterious death that hasn't been solved, so we have a better idea than some Victorian-era rich kids who probably don't even know how to do most basic tasks.

I just googled it and forensics at the time were... something. Like autopsies were done but according to this article it was mostly just approximating the time of death. This one says that they'd examine "the body’s exterior first, then internal organs, and then areas of interest in greater detail, like with a microscope." But I'm still unsure whether or not they'd be able to tell if Greenhill beat the dude up and then threw him off the roof. I'm willing to bet they wouldn't be able to tell because doing the Jack the Ripper investigations (allegedly) "He [Inspector Walter Dew] claimed that this [several photographs of the eyes were taken by expert photographers with the latest type cameras]was done in the ‘forlorn hope’ that the final image seen by Mary Kelly – i.e. the face of her murderer - had been preserved on her retina."

The boys could've gotten away with it easily. And if anyone suspects shit, get Druitt to pay off Scotland Yard. I know that's how he was let go from auctioning Ciel for some cultists or whatever. So he should help instead of fucking over his nephew.

It did click to me when they were introduced but I forget their name. I was calling them other things most of the time. I still forget Redmond and Greenhill's name. I have to think about it for a bit before I remember. 🙈🙈🙈

Yo me crié en la segunda ciudad más grande e importante de mi país. Mi escuela era religiosa pero realmente pocos eran religiosos o, por decirlo así, a casi nadie le importaba la religión durante las horas de escuela. Unos hablaban en la iglesia. Yo me quedaba dormida, parada, mientras orabamos. No es mi culpa q a esos pendejos se les ocurriera tener misa/hora de oración a las 7:40. Antes de las 9 no presto atención, sigo medio dormida. Bueno, ese no es el punto. Había este niño bien religioso que si se tomaba todo eso (las misas, la clase de religión, etc.) enserió y le hacían bullying por eso. Y todos los días los perdonaba y le seguían haciendo bullying. Pero el todo tranqui. Y se seguía juntando con ellos... a mi me hicieron bullying (de chiquita) unos majes mayores. Me salí del equipo de fut por un año pq me tocaba entrenar con ellos (solo habíamos como 3 niñas en fut ese año). Ya cuando se iban a graduar iban a los partidos y me hablaban como si nos lleváramos bien, pero whatever.

Creo que no paso nada peor pq éramos relativamente pocos por grado. Mi grado eramos apenas como 44 en total y en la escuela rica son como 60 mínimo y tienen un año extra pq muchos de esos güirros se van a estudiar a los Estados. La escuela tiene muchas maestras estadounidenses. Creo que por tener tantos estudiantes y un campus tan grande (es como del tamaño de una colonia) cuesta controlar a los niños. Y cuando digo q es un campus grande, me refiero a que tenían por lo menos dos canchas donde la U18 nacional ha jugado, un gimnasio, una como pista de carreras, una biblioteca de dos pisos, etc. Un campus tan grande + niños ricos con grandes egos a los q nadie les dice no = más oportunidades de bullying.

I found a couple of articles on bullying in the UK. One from 2023, one from 2020, and this one with no date but I assume it's from 2023 as well based on the "Pupil Bullying and Wellbeing Report 2023". So it does seem to be quite a problem.

@aintashes cont.

this is something they do regularly --- lighthearted teasing and jokes with daryl are easy . especially if it's about something absolutely ridiculous , but he decided to try his hand with something different today . maybe he's overstepping . maybe he's crossing a huge line somewhere with this , but after years of knowing each other... well , rick knows him . if daryl was going to take a swing at him for it , he expects nothing less . however , the thought didn't stop the words coming out of his mouth .

shane has been in alexandria a while now . all of those bitter feelings had been washed away long ago , no longer holding malice towards the man --- and then seeing him again , it doesn't change . perhaps there's still a little wariness that comes with it , and it's to be expected considering their last encounter , but nonetheless , rick has welcomed him back with open arms . they've lost enough people . he's lost enough people . it's good to see a familiar face again . daryl hated the idea at first , absolutely loathed the man , and rick understood . still , they needed to make it work .

' i'm just sayin'... ' he's not blind . ( he and michonne both see it . ) after a while , things started changing between daryl and shane . not for the worse either . rick thought that maybe they were coming to terms with the fact that they have to live with each other again , but something is different . he catches the way shane looks at daryl , watches his eyes and he knows that look . he's seen it too many times before . there's definitely something there . ' glad you're gettin' along . '

You stand backstage while Stephanie and Shane are in the ring until you decide to stir the pot, hell you might as well at this point. Chyna raises a brow when you call out to her while walking to the curtain, "I'm gonna make things spicier, tell the boys to be ready to come to the ring" everyone in the ring turns when your new theme of Alive by Pearl Jam plays throughout the arena while you stare holes into them, but you knew they were afraid as they see the new side of you that was full of vengeance and rage by what happened to you and it only grew since you found out the truth behind your injury and near death experience and it oozed out as you speak, "You thought you could get rid of me and expect me not to find out the truth?" everyone watches in silence as all of you grin but while their grins were for show, your grin was full of malice. "Unlike you two, the people on this roster actually like and care about me which is way more than the two of you can say and you don't need to explain why, you nearly killed me" they laugh while making a joke of being braindead which finally had you snap and black out when you shove your steel toe boot into hunter's crotch while you yank and throw steph around in a fist fight which was mostly you yelling and beating her up in front of JR and King, "The princess getting her face beat in! Hell has broken loose and Y/N getting payback tonight!" the boys run down and pull you off steph who lays against the commentary table wide eyed as you stare at her before yelling, "The only bitch in this business that everyone will respect and love isn't your spoiled ass! It's me!" the crowd yells in support with chants of "Our bitch Y/N". The boys loop their arms around you and begin to lead you to the ramp until you walk back to scare steph when edge grabs and holds you as you wave at the two and say, "Remember your roots my friend cause there's more that's heading your way!" pain flows through you while test cleans your scraped knuckles and edge puts ice on your bruised shoulder before Christian brings you a chicken wrap along with Lita bringing you a cup of soda when tears form in your eyes due to your burning knuckles before the boys were in front of you, edge tore pieces to hand you and test puts a straw in your water after you slowly sip on soda for extra energy for your match with Tori, new techniques were used that you learned from Kevin Nash who took you under his wing as you recovered. The two of you did physical therapy together when he injured his leg while you were in the first four weeks where the two of you were glued to the hip instantly even telling each other the secrets of WWF and WCW, the crowd is amazed when you use kevin's jackknife powerbomb to end the match with a win and the cheers grew when he lifts and hugs you after he climbs in the ring, "Knew you could do it, little firecracker" everyone yells and cheers at a bar for your return while you're unable to control your laughter at a drunk Lita as Matt and Jeff carry her to their hotel room. The door to your room opens as you step out of the shower only to blush at the boys as they look over your body before throwing on edge's tank top and test's boxers, they show and tell you how proud they were of you while being wrapped in their arms for the night before the three of you walk hand in hand to the arena the next morning without not knowing the chaos that would happen later that night.

Ghost Files review

saw it on my dash and have been hearing about Shane and Ryan for a long time so I decided to give it a go

Captivation: 8/10. Pretty cool, kept me invested enough

Chemistry between hosts: 10/10. They are really nailing the playful malice, which I personally recognize as love language

Visuals: 10/10. I mean kudos for having a consistent theme with illustrations during narrations, and overall they're doing their best filming everything in the dark for a reality type of show

Humor: 9/10. It's pretty funny.

Objectivity: 9/10. As weird as it may seem taking in consideration this is a ghost hunting show, it was pretty objective. The devices used were explained shortly but gave off a vague idea on how they worked and the "evidence" was not interpreted for you. Loved the skeptic and the believer roles Shane and Ryan both had, balancing each other out (although I 100% agree with Shane lol ghosts are not real). However, not sure how they choose the places to visit, because the evidence sent to them is pretty questionable, and most probably someone wants to get exposure by being featured on the show.

Arrangement: 9/10. Pretty cool.

Goal: 9/10. They say the goal is to find evidence that would support the existence of ghosts, however, the actual goal is to have fun. Love that for them.

Overall score: 9,1

Would recommend even if you do not believe in ghosts and never will, it is still pretty entertaining to watch.
