World Theatre Day 🎭 March 27 🎭 History, Theme, Significance and Quotes

All the world is a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts.' This famous quote by William Shakespeare holds true, especially today. March 27 is celebrated all over the world as 'World Theatre Day.' Before everybody got accustomed to films, watching different kinds of drama was the prime form of entertainment. Drama and theatre is the medium that is the reflection of our society. In various languages, it depicts the cultures and traditions that exist all around the world. Therefore, a day is dedicated to not only celebrate it but preserve it as well and not let it die down as it is still very much enjoyed by people everywhere. History This day was initiated back in 1962. The International Theatre Institute (ITI) commemorates the beautiful art home in ITI centres and theatre communities around the globe. The first international message on World Theatre Day was written by a French poet and playwriter named Jean Cocteau. The first ITI conference was held in Helsinki in Finland, the second one being in Vienna.

Significance The aim and significance are simple. This is an art form that tells a story to the audience in a personal manner as it develops right in front of you. On this day, people are made aware of the medium as well as the efforts and contributions of renowned theatre artists. Even today, lots of actors and actresses in Bollywood come from a theatre background that gives them an edge. Governments of various countries try to come up with activities to promote this art form. Theme There is no specific theme every year. On this day, a famous or actress is chosen to send a message about theatre's glorious history as well as it being a beacon of peace in today's world. This year, this message was delivered by actress Helen Mirren.

Here it is: “This has been such a very difficult time for live performance and many artists, technicians and craftsmen and women have struggled in a profession that is already fraught with insecurity. Maybe that always present insecurity has made them more able to survive this pandemic with wit and courage. Their imagination has already translated itself, in these new circumstances, into inventive, entertaining, and moving ways to communicate, thanks of course in large part to the internet. Human beings have told each other stories for as long as they have been on the planet. The beautiful culture of theatre will live for as long as we stay here. The creative urge of writers, designers, dancers, singers, actors, musicians, directors, will never be suffocated and in the very near future will flourish again with a new energy and a new understanding of the world we all share. I can’t wait!” 🎭

Quotes

Here are some quotes by famous theatre artists around the world to celebrate the day.

“Theatre is a sacred space for actors. You are responsible; you are in the driving seat.” – Greta Scacchi

“I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.” ― Oscar Wilde

“I believe that in a great city, or even in a small city or a village, a great theatre is the outward and visible sign of an inward and probable culture.” – Laurence Olivier

"Actors are all about entrances, but writers are all about exits."- Vincent H O'Neil

“A theatre is certainly a place for learning about the brevity of human glory: oh all those wonderful glittering absolutely vanished pantomime.” –Iris Murdoch

“Great theatre is about challenging how we think and encouraging us to fantasize about a world we aspire to.” – Willem Dafoe

“With theatre, you have to be ready for anything.” – Willem Dafoe

“Theatre is a series of insurmountable obstacles on the road to imminent disaster.” – Tom Stoppard

“All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts.” –William Shakespeare

Spill your guts or Fill your guts

pairing: Tom Holland x actress!reader

warnings: a few swear words, using of the word “daddy” ?

w/c: 0.8k

Requests: OPEN

Summary: Tom and y/n got an invetation to James Cordon show “Spill your guts or Fill your guts”. Who would have thought that Tom and y/n are so dirty?

Tom and I are now in a Relationship for already 6 months and we are so happy together. Tom´s new movie the devil all the time and my new movie just came out. Last week we got the invetation to James Cordons show Spill your guts or Fill your guts and Tom and I immediately agreed to it. Currently Tom and I were in our cabin and gave our look the last touch.

„I´m kinda scared darling“ I said to my Boyfriend who stood next to me. He looked at me and answerd „why? It will be fun baby!“ He told and with a huge smile on his face. I just answerd him a quick ´okay´ before we got called on stage where we greeted james with a hug. Tom, James and I went then to the Table where the ´delicious´ food already wait for us.

We all set down on our chairs and James told us what for food we have infront of us. „So, here we have, Cow tongue, Bird saliva, Bulls penis, Fish smoothie-„

„I hate fish!“ i shouted with a laugh at James. „I know, thats why we took it“ He laughed. „Then we have here Ant yoguhrt, Pig flesh meat Jelly, Giant water scorpion, Raw clem shot with vienna sausage juice and thats it guys!“ James finished. Tom and i just looked at each other with disgusted faces. „That sounds all really tasty James“ Tom said. „I know, i´m really exciting!“

„Should we start?“ I asked the boys. They both nooded and i started to turn the tabel. „I give you, dear James…the Cow tounge“ I said and turned the Table so the cow tounge laid exactly infront of him.I picked up the card where the question was written on. „Who was your least favorite celebrity on the show?“ i asked him with a serious gaze. Tom and James both laughed before James answerd. „I´m sorry but i really can´t say that“ He took the cow tounge and made a bite.

„OMG,NOOOO“ I said and looked away while Tom just laughed it off. James drank Water and Tom turned the Table so the Bulls penis was infront of me. „Why Tom, why?“ I said with a whiny voice. „Because it looks tasty, y/n!“ he laughed and took the card.

„We are allowed to ask these kind of Questions, seriously?“ he said with a shooked impression. „Omg, help me dear Lord“ i said. „Okay, here we go y/n… Did you ever c-called Tom i-in Bed d-daddy before?“ He asked between laughter. „WHAT THE FUCK?!“ i yelled and then started to laugh too. James sat there with his mouth wide open.

The crowd freaked completely out and clapped and laughed, some of them even screamed. Tom and i looked at each other for a second before i took a pice of the bulls penis and shoved it into my mouth. „You could have just answerd the question darling.“ Tom said to me as i chewed the bulls penis. James laughed and said „Okay, i think we all know the anwer now guys“.

„That was the worst Penis i ever had in my Mouth“ I said. James laughed so hard that he nearly fell oft he chair and Tom completely froze for a quick second. The crowd just laughed and screamed.

Now it was James turn the table and ask tom a Question. He turned the Table so that the Ant yoguhrt was infront of Tom. „Thanks you James, thats really nice of you“ Tom said to James. „No problem mate, i know how much you like it“ He said and took the Question. „Oh, thats a pretty good one“ James laughed and read the Question. „How many times do you and y/n have sex in a week?“ He asked and Tom and i both froze.

Tom looked at the Ant yoguhrt infront of him and then at me. I just shrugged with my shoulders and suddenly Tom said it. „about 5 times a week“ I looked at my Boyfriend with wide eyes and James gasped. „5 FUCKING TIMES IN ONE WEEK?!“ he yelled at the top of his lungs.

„Ist hat true y/n?“ James asked me. I just nodded with my head and looked down. James gasped again and said „I have maybe once in a week sex with my Wife.“ The crowd started to laugh even harder and Tom and I couldn´t stop laughing too.

After that Tom and I both said our Goodbyes to James and the crowd and left. When we were home at the Hollands house everyone stood in the living room excactly infront of us.

Suddenly Nikki shouted at us „5 TIMES A WEEK?!“

„Hold on a second, that was live?!“ Tom said

Let´s just say that the rest of the day everyone was quiet.

Cats Theory of the Day: Mungojerrie and the Jellicle Protectors

So, Munkustrap and Alonzo are the cats who fight to protect the tribe, but it’s implied than some other cats help out too. Which cats these are varies between productions, but it’s usually a group of bigger, stronger toms, with some of the queens helping out if they want to. The usual set is Munkustrap, Alonzo, Plato/Admetus, Coricopat, and a fifth one. In productions that include George, he’s the fifth one, but because of how rarely George appears, other cats have to fill in for him.

It’s pretty clear, if you look at how some of the numbers are structured, that George is meant to be a protector. In the Song of the Jellicles, Munkustrap marches with two other toms for the line “Jellicle cats develop slowly”. When George isn’t in the cast, these two and Plato/Admetus and Alonzo, but George replaces Alonzo whenever he’s present. Plato and George are younger than Munk, Alonzo, and Coricopat, so this moment feels like Munk leading the younger, newer protectors in doing Protector Things.

The best way to identify the protectors is during the Jellicle Ball. After Grizabella gets chased off, the dance goes from Complicated to Super Complicated and a bunch of different things happen. We have the Judders, or “waggles” as I like to call them, a few more named dance steps, Jetés (the running leaps), and some Cartwheels (with extra tumbling from Tumblebrutus), and then the Big Boys step. Munk, Alonzo, and three other toms do a dance that the girl kittens eventually take over. Big Boys, also called “Tall Boys”, are usually the adult or young adult toms who are taller than the kittens. There are more than five characters that fit this description, so not all Big Boys are THE Big Boys who are basically Munkustrap’s army for when the tribe is in danger.

I’ve looked through my bootleg collection and compared the group for five different Jellicles Balls (once again, I take notes on everything). The Broadway Revival couldn’t be included because the Jellicle Ball choreography was completely redone so that this step was removed, but the rest of my collection could be compared.

Munkustrap and Alonzo are in every single version. Since they’re always Jellicle Protectors, this signifies that that’s what this group is.

Plato/Admetus was in all but one version and Coricopat was in 3/4 of them. These are the common members.

When it comes to the fifth one, Skimble and Tugger joined in four versions each. Vienna-based productions generally have Tugger as a protector and Broadway-based productions usually include Skimble.

In the two productions where George was present, he was in the group, so he’s probably the one who’s supposed to go there when the full cast is present.

Mungojerrie was included in three productions and Tumblebrutus was included in one.

So, Mungojerrie can be a Jellicle Protector, but only when their numbers are down.

In 1998, the Standard Five (Munk, Alonzo, Plato, Cori, George) were used. But, when we get to the actual Macavity Fight, when the protectors are needed, only the first two are present. Plato doubles as Macavity and both Cori and George double as Henchcats, so when Macavity attacks, most of the cats who’re supposed to be there to protect the tribe are missing.

During the earlier false alarm, before Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer, we can see how things are probably supposed to play out during a Macavity attack. Munk is in full Munkustance and Alonzo does some patrolling, but Plato and George can also be seen getting involved. George runs to Munkustrap, possibly waiting for instructions, and guards Etcetera. Plato can be seen instructing the kittens to get down on the floor in the safety circle, so he’s also stepping up in this emergency situation.

So, without Plato and George around to help, the tribe isn’t quite as prepared for Macavity’s attack. Other cats help with the kittens and form the safety circle, but there’s some confusion. Nobody notices that Pouncival never got in the circle, or that Tumblebrutus, also playing a Henchcat, is missing. Tugger and Misto are also absent, because Misto’s changing into his song costume and...actually I have no idea what’s up with Tugger. There are versions where he’s present for the Macavity Fight, but he’s just not this time. In-universe, he’s probably wherever Misto is.

Skimble, a common substitute for George as the fifth protector, very much springs into action, getting the kittens into the safety circle and keeping Mungojerrie from panicking. With three protectors missing, three replacements are needed. The cats chosen as Big Boys in other productions are physically capable of participating in the fight. So, Skimble, Tugger, Jerrie, are the most obvious choices for replacements. Tugger is absent, so the tribe ends up one short, but Skimble and Jerrie are there.

Skimble is one of the older cats and Plato is young enough to almost be considered a kitten, so I headcanon that Skimble was a Jellicle Protector, but he retired and Plato took his spot.

This whole tangent is mostly meant to explain Mungojerrie’s role in this whole thing. He stands to fight, but before he does, it doesn’t really seem like he’s going to. While the other toms in the fight acknowledge Macavity as a threat, Jerrie’s the only one who comes across as truly afraid of him. Before Demeter calls “Macavity”, Jerrie is pretty much fine handling the crisis. He helps Skimble get Teazer to safety and remains calm. But, when he realizes that Macavity is here, he freezes up, either staring out into space or curled up in a ball. Jerrie’s a tough boy who can handle a fight, but not with Macavity. He’s terrified of him, almost as much as Demeter is. Even Demeter handles the situation better, since she’s already standing to fight, but Jerrie’s too scared to move! He’s at the very least witnessed Macavity do something terrible when he worked for him, probably.

But, with most of the Jellicle Protectors mysteriously absent, Jerrie has to stand and fight. He doesn’t want to. He’s reluctant to do it. But, Skimble supports him through it, so he stands.

This moment could be Jerrie, despite his fear, learning to be brave, but that happens later in his arc. During the Macavity Fight, Jerrie circles around the action, occasionally hissing at Macavity, sort of imitating what Alonzo is doing, but he doesn’t get involved. Then, Macavity defeats Munkustrap and his unconscious body lands right in front of where Jerrie’s sitting. Teazer and Electra try and fail to revive him while Jerrie is just stunned. Alonzo takes over the fight and Jerrie hisses at Macavity again when he comes near. When Alonzo begins to struggle and it looks like he might be defeated as well, Jerrie stands. If Alonzo goes down, all the usual protectors are gone, and everyone else is too afraid to challenge Macavity, or still recovering from an earlier attempt to challenge Macavity (Etcetera). So, this is the moment where Jerrie faces his fear and challenges Macavity after Alonzo is briefly knocked out.

So, since there’s clearly a moment later in the arc where Jerrie chooses to fight, facing his fear, it wouldn’t make sense to do it twice. My theory is that Jerrie didn’t choose to stand and fight the first time. Most of the tribe’s protectors were absent, back-up was needed, and he was one of the few cats capable of providing it. Skimble led Jerrie to stand and get ready to fight, but Jerrie wasn’t ready for it. It’s later on that Jerrie chooses to face his fear, which is what really counts.

So… hi

I just need to jump on here to do a bit of oversharing. Don’t read if TMI is TM for you 😅

Should I put warnings here about sex talk? Like not smut just talking about sex and virginity?

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Still here. Alright so then I guess I’ll warn you about teenage angst. Or just like actual angst. There’s lots of that here.

Okay here it is.

I’m 29, I just turned 29 last week, and as much as I feel my age, I also feel like I didn’t do a lot of things that teenagers do; I never snuck out. I never drank. I never smoked. I never did drugs. I never went to house parties or bonfires in the middle of nowhere. I never sto- okay I did steal but it was like 5 cent candies from the convenient store and I was like 8. The point is, I never broke the rules. I was a good kid. Probably too good for my own good.

Hence: still being a virgin at 29.

Listen, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being a virgin. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with not having sex or waiting to have sex. I know that not everyone wants to have sex. I know people think that virginity is a social construct and it doesn’t actually exist. I think that everyone should be allowed to live the life they want to live it and have sex whenever and however they’re ready. But my deal? I was busy in middle school. Band twice a day, sometimes three, nearly failing math, still having to go to classes, trying to have a social life — I was just trying to be a kid because home sometimes felt very intense that I needed to separate the two from each other. However, things from home followed me to school. Particularly, what my mom said about my body. I would hear it from her, feel shitty and then not think about it for a few days until someone at school would mention it and I would spiral.

It didn’t matter if I was sociable and friendly and people generally liked me. Kids are mean and they pick at the vulnerable things when they’re hurt or jealous or just want to fight. So school became just as intense as home and the last thing I was thinking about was sex. But when I got to high school, all the kids I went to middle school with were there. Or the majority of them anyway. So while everyone had been making connections in middle school, I’d been hiding myself away to stop my heart from breaking or to stop feeling like I was in everyone’s way. I took that with me for most of my life. Jobs. University. Dates. Travelling. All of it.

Cut to 2017: I’m 23, living alone for the first time and in Vienna no less. I’ve never been kissed, I don’t think I could confidently say I’d ever been on a date at that point and, as we’ve already established, I had never had sex. Then there was Tom. He was sweet and kinda funny. A little intense but not too much. He kissed me when we were dancing in a club and then walked me back to my apartment. I felt like it could’ve gone further and I could’ve been ready for it but it didn’t. But after the kiss, I wasn’t feeling like I was in everyone’s way anymore. Until the next day.

See my friend had been with his friend while I was with Tom. She didn’t hook up with him, not that I know of anyway, but they were kissing about as much as Tom and I were. He walked her back to the apartment building with Tom and I. It was all fine. And then the next day I found out that my friend was going over to their place to hang out — I wasn’t invited. Now to be fair, Tom did ask me what I was doing that day but he never asked me to do anything or come over. Like I just need guys to be direct without being creepy or gross or sending dick pics. Is that too much to ask? Anyway, I was back to feeling like I needed to make myself small again and let people live their lives around me. I moved past it. And sex just… wasn’t on my mind. See, my non-virgin friends don’t understand this.

“How can you not want to lose it?” “Do you not want to lose it?” “You know you don’t have to be in love right?” “Just choose some guy from the bar!” “Swipe right on as many guys as you can and then ask them if they want to take your virginity. It’s the easiest thing in the world!”

But I was always of the mindset that it’ll happen when it’s supposed to happen. When someone isn’t expecting it to happen or waiting for me to do it. Fate is a funny thing and it all happens the way it’s supposed to in the end.

Queue: 2022. I’d been on a few dates now. All of them sucked. I’d kissed a few guys by this point. Some were okay, most were lacking. I’d been talking to a lot of guys on a few different apps. No flirting, no banter, just when was the last time you had sex — unmatch. Then my brother died and my perspective on things changed. I realized that my life had been so predominantly about making other people comfortable that I had no idea what I wanted or who I was and being 28, about to be 29, soon to be 30, seemed late for me to realize this 😅

So I booked myself a one way ticket to Dublin. With no intention of romance or sex. This wasn’t supposed to be a eat, pray, love situation. The only intention was to get out of that negative space and discover who I am, who I wanted to be. No judgement. No expectations. Just living my life. And then Damien shows up. After nearly a week of not really feeling like guys noticed me, here’s this guy on Tinder who’s funny and sweet and who’s really only alluded to sex but never really made it feel like he expected it. We meet up. We laugh. We flirt. We drink. We flirt some more. By the end of the night, we’re very touchy freely and he’s grabbing a taxi to his hotel.

Normally, at this point I’d be like nope but with him, I just wanted to be near him. I could feel myself staring at him in the taxi as he spoke to the driver. Like I legit couldn’t stop myself from staring at him. Then we got back to the room and it all happened pretty quickly. The kiss was a bit sloppy and getting undressed was a bit awkward. But once he found out I was a virgin, he was sweet and gentle and considerate. And now he won’t message me back 😅

There’s a bunch of details that I’m not mentioning here like neither of us came, I gave him the worst blowjob I’m pretty sure he’ll ever get in his life and when there was… resistance he stopped. Like completely. He said he would try again later or soon but he didn’t. He said he could tell it was gonna hurt a bit and he wanted to take it slow. And then we went to sleep. We cuddled. The cuddling was nice. That’s the intimacy I crave. But the sex was uneventful to say the least. I think it could’ve been great but… 🤷‍♀️

Anyway, the next day I tried messaging him and it was super distanced and not nearly as cute as it was and now I get why everyone says virgins are so clingy. I never thought I’d be that girl but I find myself trying to connect with him before I leave. Even though I know he’s not in Cork any more. And it’s driving me a bit crazy to watch as he doesn’t reply to any message I send lol.

A friend of mine said just to stop trying to talk to him or it might sour what sounded like a generally good night. Not everyone’s first time is as positive as mine so why try to ruin it. Basically is what she said. And I get it but I can’t stop myself. I just want to send a flirty pic and say “if you’re ever in Calgary, hit me up.”

The thing is, I think I have the perfect picture for it, too, but I can tell he’s not into it and I do agree that I don’t want the night to be spoiled…

Also, I needed to attach this song because it was the first song I heard after it happened and it gave me all the feels 😅🥰🥹

#tmi #about me #about #me #you guys know more about me than anyone in my actual life #the only other person who knows is the friend I said gave me advice #my parents don’t know #my other friends don’t know #no #just Tumblr and my bestie #s*x #first time #virginity loss #virginity

🎄First Times🎄

A/N : This is an extra for my first ever series I Forgot That You Existed. Feedback and suggestions are always welcome.

Pairing : Dad! Tom Holland x Reader

Summary : Your and Tom's first Christmas with your baby girl.

Warnings : fluff

There's something about first times. The first time riding a bicycle, first love, going on your first date, first kiss. There's an unknown excitement in it, a thrill, a feeling of adventure. Those first times will always be special. Just like your first Christmas with your baby girl.

After 3 years of marriage you and Tom are proud parents of your one and only daughter Vienna. She was the apple of your eye after all she's your first born. The first time you got to know that you were pregnant was during one of your recording sessions when you suddenly felt nauseous and had to run to the bathroom to throw up. You knew this wasn't mere food poisoning from your past experience and to be honest you and Tom had been trying for a baby for quite some time after you finally decided that you are ready to embrace motherhood again.

You were rather thrilled than scared this time while you took the test and seeing the two pink lines made your heart swell as a few tears of joy slipped your eyes. When Tom returned home you just ran into his arms to reveal the news that you were expecting and joy knew no bounds for him. He immediately lifted you up and spinned you around in the living room in excitement.

The first time you went for your check up and saw your baby girl on the monitor Tom was literally sobbing. You were being very careful this time. During the last trimester Tom didn't want to leave your side at all. You had to literally throw him out of the house (pun intended) to go for his shoots.

You couldn't believe how time flew so fast that the little human you both brought to this earth is almost a year old now. It felt like yesterday you brought her from the hospital wrapped in a blanket in your arms and now she crawls around the house as well as has learnt to stand on her little feet. You never get tired of listening to her continuous babbles with some broken words she has learnt eventually.

And not to be surprised her first word was obviously ‘Dada’ ofcourse she was daddy's girl because the way Tom has spoiled her rotten since the day she was born you really are gonna have a hard time in future saying no to her and hearing that Tom went on a shopping spree that day, if he could he would have bought the whole toy shop you thought.

Christmas was around the corner and everyone was in their festive mood. You were in the kitchen baking cookies when your husband came down the stairs hastily.

"Honey where is my Christmas jumper?" he asks from across the living room.

"Tom, what is your obsession with that old jumper? Now even the jumper also says let me go Thomas." You joke from the kitchen. Tom huffs rolling his eyes.

"That jumper carries a lot of sentimental value for me. C'mon now tell me where is it?" he whines.

"It's in the left bottom shelf of the cupboard." You yell from the kitchen.

"I already looked there."

"Then look hard it's there only." Sometimes you really feel that you are actually looking after two babies.

Tom ran upstairs again to your bedroom where your 12 months old daughter was sleeping peacefully. He searched through the cupboard and finally found his jumper but the noise he made while doing it woke Vienna up. Tom turned to see his little princess sitting up on the bed with sleepy eyes.

"Oh did I wake you up bubs? So sorry peanut. Daddy was looking for his jumper." He went and sat beside her on the bed. She instantly got up on his lap, her little hands clutching onto his t-shirt as support and standing up. Tom forgot about everything and began playing with her, her little giggles making his heart melt. After a while she started to get a little fussy and Tom knew that his baby girl was hungry.

"I know baby it's time for you to have some brekkie, let's see what mommy is doing eh."

"Look who’s up." Tom announces cheerfully walking down the stairs. You turned around and your face instantly lit up seeing your morning sunshine resting her head on her daddy's shoulder suckling her thumb.

"Aww you are up my little pumpkin wait a moment mommy is almost done" Tom strolled around the house with her. He went and stood near the glass doors overlooking his snow covered lawn.

"Look at that peanut, it's snowing isn't it beautiful." He cooed, rocking her gently in his arms making her giggle. Tom was about to slide the door open to the lawn to take her out.

"Tom it's freezing outside, V isn't wearing enough warm clothes. She will catch a cold" You stopped him.

"Your mommy is way too paranoid." Tom says rolling his eyes dramatically looking at your daughter.

"I can hear you." You say in a sing-song manner from the kitchen. Tom makes his way to you in the kitchen.

"Here I can do the rest of the batch" he offers, taking the tray from your hand."My little princess needs to be fed first." He says and you take Vienna from his arms. Tom continued with preparing the rest of the batch of cookies as you fed your daughter.

Later in the evening you were busy decorating the christmas tree with Tom when you noticed Vienna playing and tugging on to some wires. You panicked out of your motherly instinct.

"Baby no don't touch it, you'll get hurt." You came rushing, taking away the lights from her small hands. She stared at you with her doe eyes for a while before crawling away to get the other decorating stuff from the box.

"God, she's such an active baby, never sits in one place." You shake your head smiling.

"Well she's my daughter." Tom says proudly.

"Okay Billy Elliot, now go and put Billy Elliot Jr in the crib or else she will not let us set up the tree." Tom did as you said as he placed Vienna in the crib when your attention went to the lights you were holding in your hands and you frowned.

"Tom, why did you bring the bigger lights?"

"Why what's the problem with the big one?" He asks casually.

"Tom the big ones are for the lawn and the small ones are for the tree. It has always been like that." you state in disappointment.

"For a change let's put the big ones on the tree this year." He suggests.

"No way! it will look odd." you say annoyed.

"Gosh you're such a control freak." he huffs.

"No I'm not, it's just my tastes are better than yours." You retort. Soon you both began arguing and seeing the tension between her parents Vienna started crying. Both of you stopped arguing as your full attention turned to your one year old and you both felt guilty of arguing in front of her.

"Aww baby did we scare you? We are so sorry honey." You rushed to her picking her in your arms, rocking her gently pacifying her. She stopped crying after sometime. You sat down on the couch with Tom beside you.

"We shouldn’t have fought like that on such a petty issue I’m sorry I over reacted." You felt sorry.

"No it’s my fault that I messed up the lights, I’m sorry Y/N" Tom apologises

"Hey it’s ok we can put the big ones this year." Tom and you leaned in for a reconciliation kiss but was interrupted by your little munchkin’s hand as if she didn’t want you to kiss Tom.

"Someone seems to be a little possessive." You pout scrunching your nose.

"Well what can I say my little girl loves her dad more, isn’t it princess?" He boops her nose gently to which she giggles.

"Don’t flatter yourself mister." you snicker.

"Aww don’t get disheartened, love." you slap his chest playfully.

"Shut up and do the rest of the decoration I need to put her to sleep, it’s almost her nap time."

"Okay mam." You took Vienna with you to the bedroom to put her to sleep while Tom carried on with the rest of the decorations. After finishing he went upstairs to call you for watching a movie together.

"Hey Y/N" Tom popped his head through the door.

"Shh!" You hush him immediately. "She just fell asleep". You whisper.

"Sorry." He mouths. I have set up everything. He whispers.

"Okay I’ll be down in a minute." You whisper back. You went down to the living room to find two cups of tea and snacks kept on the coffee table while Tom was lounging on the couch busy choosing a christmas movie to watch for tonight. You went and sat on the couch snuggling close to him resting your head on his broad chest, he smiled wrapping his arm around you. Even though you were totally enjoying parenthood, you also cherished these alone times with your husband. Just two of you cuddled close into each other’s warm embrace. The intimacy of the moment is so soothing and relaxing after a long day. You wondered what you did to get this perfect man as your husband with whom you brought an angel in your lives. You felt you have everything you could have asked for and you are grateful. Tom noticed you lost in deep thought.

"What’s going on in this little mind?" He taps on your head lightly.

"Just can't imagine she's already one. Soon she will go to school then college and a few years later she might bring a boy for the Christmas Dinner to meet with us and then get married and have her own children" you went on as Tom perked up.

"Woah woah slow down, love. You are going way too fast forward. And moreover she isn't dating until she turns 30." He says like a protective father, you let out an airy laugh.

"Look now who's been paranoid huh?" you raise a sly brow.

"Well you know there’s a lot of no good sons of bit.."

"Uh uh language." You interrupt.

"Sons of butterflies out there." He corrected his dialogue as you both chuckle softly turning your attention back to the movie playing in front of you.

HIVE TIMELINE TWO, ELECTRIC BOOGALOO (Updated and reworked for Bloodline; spoilers ahead!)

It's a year since my original HIVE timeline (which you can read here and is obviously pre-Bloodline), and how things have changed. Well...kind of. I was expecting more of my timeline to crumple under the weight of eight years' worth of continuity errors but, unlike most of my pre-Bloodline fic, my 2020 timeline has stayed somewhat intact. However, in light of Nessa's excellent post that used the Bloodline prologue to figure out Raven's birthday with a scary amount of accuracy, I've decided that somewhat intact just isn't enough. Lo and behold...find the C ottomalpense new and improved H.I.V.E. timeline under the cut. This is just my interpretation of the canon timeline; because Walden contradicts himself constantly when it comes to age and continuity, most of these dates are educated guesses and any other interpretations are more than valid. Bloodline spoilers below.

PART ONE: RAVEN

In my original timeline, I used two anchor dates: Otto's 13th birthday being August 29th 1993, and Raven being 16 in the 'fifteen years earlier' Hong Kong flashback, making her 31 in Aftershock/Deadlock. Using the age difference between her and Otto, I counted backwards to give Raven a birth year of 1979. Otto's birthday still holds up, but Bloodline has since made it clear that Raven was 15 in Hong Kong. Therefore, several options presented themselves in order to salvage the rest of the timeline.

Option 1: Raven was indeed born in 1979, and Hong Kong takes place in 1994. This would make her 27 in H.I.V.E., given that she has a September birthday and H.I.V.E. takes place between September-December 2006. However, this means Raven that if Raven is 30 in Aftershock/Deadlock, there are only three years between the first seven books....something that canon vaguely supports given Shelby's "I've waited three years for you two to get together" comment to Laura and Otto in Deadlock, but feels very, very unrealistic given the number of time skips and the sheer volume of things that happen in the first seven books. My original timeline was created to get rid of the stasis in canon and give a better sense of the progression of time between books. Keeping Raven's birth year as 1979 undermines that.

Option 2: Raven was born in 1981, Hong Kong takes place in 1996, and she is 25 in H.I.V.E., meaning that there's exactly five years between H.I.V.E and Aftershock. This supports my earlier placement of Aftershock being the start of fifth year, but 25 feels kind of...young? It also hinges on Raven knowing her exact birth date before she finds out that Nero is her father, which I personally don't think Bloodline supports - Nero didn't know her birthday, and I think if Raven did know, she would've told him pre-Bloodline.

Option 3: Raven was born in 1980, Hong Kong takes place in 1995, and she is 26 in H.I.V.E., but, because she doesn't know her birth date, she celebrates her birthday on New Year's Eve. So while Raven would technically be 31 in Aftershock, she would still consider herself 30 until the end of the year, as would Nero. This gives a little bit more leeway with her age, reduces the number of changes in the overall timeline, and accounts for the overall unreliability of both Raven and Nero's narration in the flashback scenes - given that one of them had been traumatised so thoroughly that she had recurring psychotic episodes just months before that scene, and the other had his memory tampered with to the point where he misremembered the date of worst day of his life.

I personally opted for Option 3, making Raven's new birthday 3rd-6th September 1980. She is 33 in the Bloodline epilogue. Therefore Hong Kong still takes place in 1995.

PART TWO: OTTO

This is just a rehash of my last timeline, but for clarity's sake: Otto being an August 1993 birthday makes him one of the youngest in his year, meaning that everyone else (Lucy, Wing*, Nigel, Franz, Shelby, Laura, and Penny) were all 1992/3 babies. Bloodline takes place right at the end of his final year (meaning I correctly predicted that it would be set in 2012), making him 19. Something I forgot to mention in my original timeline is that Tom is described as being a few years older than Penny in H.I.V.E., but given that Tom isn't really alive for long enough to present me with an issue timeline wise, I'm just going to let that one slide. The Bloodline epilogue thus takes place in 2013.

As always, I am ignoring Rogue's claim that Otto is 13, because it doesn't make sense in any context (if Otto really is 13, it means he magically ages three years in Zero Hour and Aftershock according to Walden's own implication that Otto is 16 by Aftershock...which I'm also ignoring, but whatever). Laura still choosing between universities in September 2013 is weird, because either she is very, very late for the 2013 academic year, or very, very early for the 2014 one, but, again, I am ignoring it. Essentially, nothing meaningful has changed for any of the student ages between this timeline and the 2020 one.

PART THREE - NERO

This is where it gets interesting. This time last year, my Nero section was just speculation. I was, uh, very off, and did not account for how early Nero knocked Elena up. That was on me. My bad!

Nero is in his early 20s when Elena is murdered. If we take the year to be 1980, and early 20s to mean anything between 20-24, we can get an approximate birth year of 1956-1960. I'm going to average that to 22, making Nero's birth year 1958. He's a practically spritely 48 in H.I.V.E, and 55 in the Bloodline epilogue.

(Also, I am treating the 'thirty years' in the 'thirty years ago' flashback to be an estimate. Nero has memory issues and also thirty years has a much better ring to it than thirty-two.)

PART FOUR - DIABOLUS

We can't talk about Nero without mentioning Diabolus because I, for one, have been haunted by the knowledge that Nero taught Diabolus for years. However, assuming Nero immediately joins the H.I.V.E. teaching staff in 1980 following Elena's death, he is 22. If Diabolus is a first year student, we can give him a birth year of 1966/7. That said, I tend to think Diabolus is a little bit older than that, given how close he and Nero are in Hong Kong, so if we age him up to a third year in Nero's first year of teaching, that makes him 15/16 with a birth year of 1964/5. There's only 6/7 years between him and Nero, leaving plenty of time for them to become close friends by Hong Kong, during which Nero is 37 and Diabolus is approaching 30. That means Diabolus had Nigel at 27/28.

PART FIVE - THE OVERLORD INCIDENT AND XIU MEI

The Overlord Incident (henceforth the OI) is the bane of my existence. There's no mention of Raven in the original flashback in the Overlord Protocol, implying that she wasn't around yet, but it's referenced as still being a work in progress in Hong Kong. Again, this is a rehash of my previous timeline, but the Deadlock interpretation doesn't work; regardless of anything else, Wing was definitely born in 1992/3 in order to be in the same year as Otto, and either Wing or Raven would be too young for the OI to occur after Hong Kong (Raven was only 13 in 1993 in this interpretation of events, and this is one that puts her on the older side - there's an argument to be made for her being born in 1983, which would make her 10). Ergo, in this timeline, the OI precedes Hong Kong.

As mentioned, Wing had to have been born in 1993 at the latest, and the evidence suggests that he's most likely one of the older kids in their year, pointing to a 1992 birthday, meaning Xiu Mei got pregnant by January 1992 at the earliest. There must be time allowed for the following to occur between Wing and Otto's births and the OI: survivors of the OI to start going missing, Xiu Mei and Wu Zhang /Cypher to marry and move to Japan in order to escape persecution, and Overlord to get enough soft power over Number One to convince him to start trying to produce a clone of himself to be his successor. At earliest this can be 1991. I, however, think that it's more likely to be January 1990, given Overlord's comments about how much Number One initially resisted having his brain hijacked. This is the same as my previous timeline.

Unlike my previous timeline, however, I'm also going to attempt to estimate the year of Xiu Mei's death. While the Overlord Protocol does not explicitly state this, it can be inferred that Nero receives Xiu Mei's locket and letter after she is murdered by Overlord for investigating the Renaissance project. Nero receives the locket "many years" before Overlord Protocol (which takes place roughly in Spring/Summer of 2007), but Xiu Mei was also presumed "long dead" already when he received it as a result of the OI. This puts 17 years between Xiu Mei's faked death and Nero's reminiscence over the locket and letter in 2007 after the assassination attempt in Vienna. Xiu Mei can't have died before Wing was at least 5 years old, given the strong memories he has of her and the fact that he made a promise to her not to kill anyone, so I'm tentatively putting Xiu Mei's real death at 2001, when Wing would've been 9. This leaves just enough time for Cypher to establish himself as a thorn in Nero's side, and for his relationship with Wing the deteriorate to what we see in the Overlord Protocol.

PART SIX - OTHER

I've been meaning to do the maths on this for a while, but H.I.V.E.mind was officially brought online April 10th, 2006! (He'd been online for four months, three weeks, and two days by September 1st.) Nero really was paranoid after the OI.

Brexit doesn't occur in the H.I.V.E.verse, because Duncan Cavendish (David Cameron) resigns in 2010, AKA way, way, before the rise of UKIP and the 2016 referendum. The Iraq war, however, does - Tony Blair is heavily, heavily implied to be the prime minister in 2006.

Not really timeline related, but the fact that both Otto and Raven are Virgos is enough to make me shudder.

TL;DR - THE (FINAL???) TIMELINE

1950-59: The Furan siblings are born at some point. Two siblings are twins, presumably Elena and Anastasia or Anastasia and Pietor. At some point, they are owed a blood debt by the Sinistres.

1958: Nero is born.

Early 1960s: H.I.V.E. is founded, most likely by Nero's mother.

1964-5: Diabolus Darkdoom is born.

Late 1970s: Elena and Nero start their affair.

1980: Elena is murdered by Pietor. Raven is born. Nero has his memory of Raven's survival forcibly erased by Francesca Sinistre, clearing the blood debt between the Furan and Sinistre families.

1980s: Diabolus Darkdoom and Duncan Cavendish attend and graduate H.I.V.E. Diabolus and Nero become friends.

1989: Raven runs away from her orphanage.

1990: The Overlord Incident takes place, leaving three named survivors: Nero, Xiu Mei, and Wu Zhang. Overlord begins to assert control over Number One.

1991: Raven is found by the Furans and brought to the Glasshouse. Wu Zhang and Xiu Mei marry and immigrate to Japan after survivors of the Overlord Incident start going missing.

1992: Presumably the year Raven claws out Pietor's eye and gets shot in the woods, it is also the point at which Overlord/Number One most likely starts considering cloning himself. In the final quarter of the year, some students - most likely Wing, Shelby, and possibly Laura - are born.

1993: Otto and the rest of the students in his year are born.

1994: Likely the year Dimitri's escape attempt fails, and Raven is forced to murder Tolya. Also presumably when H.I.V.E.'s Icelandic location became dangerously compromised, and Nero starts seriously considering plans to move. At this point his mother is dead.

1995: Nero and Diabolus go to Hong Kong to meet with the Architect, and thwart Raven's assassination attempt. Raven eventually defects to G.L.O.V.E., and the first Glasshouse burns.

1996-2000: Construction on H.I.V.E. 2.0 is completed. Nero starts work on the emergency Zero Hour protocol.

2001: Xiu Mei is murdered by Overlord for asking too many questions about the Renaissance initiative. Wu Zhang becomes Cypher. Nero receives his half of the amulet, and Xiu Mei's letter.

2001-2005: Lucy's parents die of unknown causes. Diabolus Darkdoom falsifies his death to escape execution for getting too close to the Renaissance initiative, possibly after divorcing his wife first. Otto drops out of school and starts scamming local business to repair St Sebastian's. At some point Pike convinces Nero to try AI again. Number One's will is entirely consumed by Overlord.

2006: H.I.V.E.mind goes online. Pike's experiment to give Ms Leon the same reflexes as her cat goes horribly wrong, leaving them both trapped in the wrong body. Shelby becomes the Wraith and makes headlines for stealing millions of dollars' worth of jewellery. Laura is caught hacking the nearby American air base's early nuclear warning system. Otto hypnotises the current prime minister, allowing Duncan Cavendish to come into power. During a failed escape attempt from H.I.V.E., several hundred million pounds' worth of damage is caused to H.I.V.E. by Nigel's experimental crossbreed plant, Violet.

2007: Cypher fakes his death as Mao Fanchu in order to lure Wing to Tokyo, and the Contessa betrays Nero. Nero keeps Cypher alive, unbeknownst to Number One, and starts to have suspicions about Number One/Overlord for the first time. By the end of August, everyone is fourteen, and first year is over.

2008: H.O.P.E. is formed, and Nero is captured in either April or May whilst meeting with Gregori Leonov. Three months later, he is rescued by Otto, Raven, and the gang. The Contessa and Number One/Overlord die. Laura and Otto kiss, but nothing comes of it. Diabolus resurfaces from the dead to be elected head of G.L.O.V.E.'s ruling council. At some point in late August to early September, Otto, Wing, Shelby and Laura first encounter the animus fluid on a train to Paris whilst on a mission to recover a stolen thermoptic camouflage suit. As a result of the Contessa's death, Lucy Dexter is transferred to H.I.V.E. at the start of third year, at which point everyone is fifteen. Following the hijacking of Dreadnought, and an encounter with Pietor Furan, the animus fluid, and the Disciples, Otto is captured by American forces after saving Air Force One and the US president. He is then turned over to H.O.P.E.

2009: Assassinations of key members of G.L.O.V.E.'s ruling council take place at the hands of Otto, now under the influence of animus. Raven is given executive privilege to kill him if necessary. Otto confesses his love to Laura. Following a confrontation in the Amazon jungle, Cypher, Ghost, and Trent all die. H.O.P.E. is destroyed. Otto feigns memory loss of everything that occurred under animus. By the end of the year, everyone is sixteen.

2010: Laura's brother, Douglas, is born. Otto has continual and repeated nightmares and is the subject of rumours. Overlord takes control of the Advanced Weapons' Testing Facility in Colorado. The Zero Hour protocol is activated. Wing and Shelby get together. Chief Lewis and Lucy Dexter die. Pietor Furan is killed by Raven. Nero becomes head of G.L.O.V.E. Duncan Cavendish is forced to resign. The Architect is contacted by Anastasia Furan through a proxy, and construction of the new Glasshouse is completed. Following the appointment of Security Chief Dekker, Laura is blackmailed into betraying the location of the Hunt after Tom and Penny's recruitment to H.I.V.E. Joseph Wright and several former members of the ruling council are offered the help of Disciples'. All of the Alpha stream save Shelby, Otto, Franz, and Wing are taken captive. Otto is expelled, and joined Raven on the hunt for the location of the new Glasshouse. By the end of the year, everyone is seventeen.

2011: Raven and Otto take down several Disciples, most notably visiting Dubai, London, and Paris. In Venice, they are pursued by the CIA after tracking down the Architect with the help of Diabolus Darkdoom. Tom dies. The new Glasshouse is stormed and destroyed, again. Laura is given the choice as to whether she wants to stay at H.I.V.E. or not, and decides to stay. Anastasia Furan is taken hostage in Nero's basement storage facility. The Disciples' countdown for the new batch of hostages starts at 99 days. By the end of the school year, everyone is eighteen.

2012: The majority of Otto and the gang's final year goes smoothly. Franz starts working out and loses weight, becoming conventionally attractive. A few days shy of graduation, the clone known as Anna becomes loose. Otto reconvenes with the CIA and is allowed access to the last remaining batch of the animus fluid. Francesca Sinistre dies. It is revealed to Nero by Anastasia that he is Raven's father. Raven kills Anastasia. Otto stays behind to destroy H.I.V.E. and dies. His consciousness is transferred to a cloning vat by H.I.V.E.mind. Everyone is nineteen.

2013: Construction on the new H.I.V.E. facility is already underway. Raven finds out her birthday. Shelby and Wing set up an orphanage, implied to be in Africa, for war orphans in Otto's honour. Franz is an instructor at the temporary facility. Laura gets in to MIT and Oxford. In early September, Otto shows up on her doorstep.

|Edd (Eddsworld)| Smile

Genre: Fluff

Warnings: Tooth-Rotting Sweetness, Sexual Innuendos, Edd being a male

Summary: Not all tears are sad on the happiest day of your life

Ok look I had a really cute dream and decided to indulge myself don't @ me. Also the character Sarah belongs to a friend of mine, and Vienna is my character. This is also very rushed, so I apologize if it sucks.

It felt like I couldn't breathe. As I watched my bridesmaid smooth down my dress in the mirror, a million thoughts flew through my head. What if I looked ugly? He probably won't like the dress. Maybe the cake will be shit. What if the official finds something wrong with the legality?

Sarah, my maid of honor, noticed my panic and set her hands on my shoulders.

"Hey, deep breaths."

Vienna, my other bridesmaid, took one of my hands. Her strong Irish accent and violet eyes were calming.

"Don't worry, Ma always told me ya get nervous right before the wedding. But everything will turn out perfect."

I breathed deeply, then exhaled, nodding. Soon Vicky, Edd's younger sister and the third bridesmaid, popped her head through the door.

"Its time."

��☆☆

I looked over at my father as he squeezed my hand in reassurance. We were standing outside, waiting. Tom, Tord, and Matt had all smiled at my appearance and told me that Edd would probably faint. They were gone now, having walked the bridesmaids in.

I tensed as the Bridal March started up. The sound of people standing from their chairs made me swallow nervously. My father smiled encouragingly, and we began our walk.

The wedding hall was beautifully decorated, with white streamers connected by white flowers. An organ laid in the far corner, with an old family friend of my mom's sitting at it, playing. As I passed, people in the aisles waved at me. I recognized friends, family, and old family friends that I rarely saw. In the two front rows were my mom and grandparents, as well as Edd's parents and grandparents. All four women were dabbing their eyes with tissues.

And then he was there. Standing in front of the alter, wide eyed and mouth slightly open, was my husband-to-be. He was wearing a black tuxedo with a green flower tucked in the pocket. His brunette hair was actually combed for once. I tried to hold back a giggle at his expression.

My father and I stepped up onto the altar. But Edd just stood there, starstruck. Rolling his eyes, Tord stepped forward and gave Edd a little shove in the back. That got him going. Chuckles rang through the hall at the groom's trance.

With a little "oh-", Edd stepped forward and held out his arm. My father handed me over, and I noticed tears sparkling in the old man's eyes. That was almost enough to make me cry. Almost.

As Edd and I stood hand in hand, the official began to drone on. But it all became a blur as he whispered my name.

"You look stunning. Like, really beautiful."

"Thank you. You look more handsome than I've ever seen you. Which is saying a lot."

☆☆☆

I sat in my chair and hummed happily, the fairy lights on the roof glittering in the gold reflection of my new ring. A hand over mine drew my attention up. Edd was in the chair next to me, smiling as if I were the only thing in the world.

Suddenly a chorus of spoons on glass filled the room. I groaned playfully, knowing what it meant. Edd however, took full pleasure in pulling me down and kissing me once again. Tom whooped from the other side of the table. No doubt that he probably started the ringing this time. I laughed as I saw Sarah smack his arm.

"Leave those two alone, Thomas-"

My smile never left as I scooped a forkful of wedding cake into my mouth. It was my favorite flavor and I intended on savoring every bite.

☆☆☆

The night went by in a blur of delicious food, people I had only met once congratulating me and telling me I had grown so beautiful, songs being danced to, and millions of photos being taken.

Unfortunately when it came time for Edd to take the garter belt off my leg, Tord changed the music to play Careless Whispers and Matt dimmed the lights. Everyone who was old enough to understand started whistling and "ooo"ing. I'm sure you could see how bright red my face was, even in the dark. Edd, however, just laughed and went along with it, deciding to take the belt off my thigh with his teeth. That made Tom, Tord, Matt, and Vienna share high fives. The lifelong friends were soon met with my glare.

Now Edd and I stood in the wedding suite of the hotel we were staying at. We had decided to have the wedding in my hometown, since it was further out than Edd's.

I laughed as Edd wrapped his arms around my waist and buried his face in my neck.

"Have I ever told you how gorgeous you are~?"

"Yes-"

The thought was cut off by a squeak, as Edd lifted me off the ground. He deposited me onto the bed, climbing up over me.

"Well hi there, sir. What'cha doing?"

"Just enjoying my new wife~"

I had never smiled wider than I did that day. It hurt my cheeks, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

tag game

thank you @anxietyvarietyhour for tagging me! <3

nickname: my high school english teacher and a few other people i knew growing up used to call me cookie. a girl i knew in undergrad called me kay-kay. and i knew i man from donegal who used to call me kyah (pronounced sort of like hyah, like how you would urge a horse on) because he couldn't pronounce my name when he saw it written out.

zodiac: aquarius, but i also don't think that means anything

height: well i thought i was 5'2 but i've met two girls recently who claim to be 5'3 who were both shorter than me, and a guy who said he was 5'5 who was quite a bit taller than me, so i don't know what's true.

last movie: uhhh i honestly can't remember because i don't watch a lot of movies. probably my most recent rewatch of bill on the night ghosts was released, while i was waiting to be able to watch it here in the us.

last thing i googled: "charles ii king of bling" so i could show it to my friend.

fave musician(s): nirvana, tom petty, prince, yusuf/cat stevens, the beatles, harry styles, hozier, vienna teng, of monsters and men, måneskin, the lumineers, dervish, lil nas x

song stuck in my head: the funky monks song from horrible histories because my professor was talking today about how funny and weird monks were and that was the first thing my brain thought of.

other blogs: listed in my pinned post

blogs following: 310, but they're probably not all active tbh

amount of sleep: last night, between 3-4 hours. i tried to take a nap this afternoon but that didn't really work out

lucky number: i like multiples of three, but i wouldn't say that those are lucky

what i'm wearing: short black dress with long sleeves. earlier i was wearing a long red and black tudor inspired thing over it and shoes that look a bit like thomas's lady shoes but i took those off when i decided to attempt a nap.

dream job: i would love to work as a historical consultant on a period piece one day, or as a writer. more realistically, though, i'm trying to get my phd so i can be a professor. maybe the other will come later once i've got the credentials and experience under my belt. i also still think about getting back into acting and comedy, but i feel like it's probably too late for that.

dream trip: i think iceland sounds nice. or maybe new orleans.

fave foods: my stomach feels awful so i'd rather not think about food right now but i like fried chicken, and chicken strips or tenders or nuggets, stuff like that. various potato dishes. cheeses.

play an instrument: i used to be able to say i played 14 instruments and that i am a classically trained vocalist but i haven't really had the time or access to a lot of the instruments i play(ed) to be able to practice in several years, and i've stopped singing except to myself or my cat.

languages: again i used to be able to say i spoke 5 languages but i haven't had much opportunity to use them so i don't know how good i am at them anymore, but that would be english, spanish, irish, scots (learnt from my grandfather; and yes it is a language), and some french.

fave songs: too many, so i'll limit myself to three: "i courted a wee girl" (cover) by dervish, "recessional" by vienna teng, and "like real people do" by hozier. essentially, i'm sad, dramatic, and love women.

random fact about me: i was born tongue tied, meaning my tongue was almost completely attached to the bottom of my mouth by a strip of skin. it never affected my speech because i learned to talk around it, but it did look pretty weird and kids used to ask me to show them or show their friends and it really freaked them out. i had a surgery when i was 10 or 11 to correct the issue because my mother was worried it would make it difficult for me to speak or do my music later on.

describe yourself by aesthetic things: not sure what this means but i do a lot of historical dress, or just historical inspired dress when it's too hot to actually wear all the layers, which is quite frequent here in the american south, where i live currently. when i'm not dressed like that, i've been described as an "emo hippie" because i wear a lot of loose, flowy black or dark-coloured outfits.

tagging: i'm not sure who's done this already, so i'm not going to tag anyone, but if you'd like to do it, you can absolutely say i tagged you!

Hit Or Miss (Blurb)

Maddie Phillips as KYLIE DEXTER

“Shut up. I don’t know how your classmates deal with you, ‘cause I can’t.”

Harrison Osterfield as CARSON DEXTER

“Are you kidding me? My sister’s HOT?!”

Daniel Radcliffe as ALEX RYDINGER

“You’re lucky I still care about you.”

DANIEL CRAIG AS MIKAEL FOREMAN

“There is no world without evil.”

HIT OR MISS

Harry Garcia’s life was just too stressful. His roommate always managed to set a new song as his Alexa alarm every day before turning it up to full volume, he spent his days in his room writing unnecessary essays to get himself ahead of his studies and has a daily routing every morning that he follows to the letter, crossing the i’s and dotting the t’s- wait, it was dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s.

Until his evening routine was disrupted by assassin Kylie Dexter, who’d killed the apartment owner next door, a complete, shattering blow to his peaceful (cough cough) life.

Then comes crime boss Mikael Foreman. As scary as he looks, he’s after Kylie’s blood, and it’s up to Harry and a few others to protect her.

How could he, an uptight, workaholic guy who’s one martial arts belt away from black (he’s too afraid to use any of his training) and who can’t even defend himself from his roommate’s secret pillow attacks, defend a master assassin from a dangerous crime boss? Even so, it‘s life or death.

Digital Love Pt.2 (PETER PARKER)

Summary: Both Vienna and Peter are broken, but what happens when Vienna’s needed in the field after Thanos’s henchmen attack Earth?

Vienna was pacing round her room, watching the news desperately in search for her brother and Peter. They weren’t allowed to talk to each other so it comforted her to just watch from afar and make sure he’s okay. That’s when the text came. ‘You’re up, glowstick.’ Vienna rushed round the room, opening a compartment in her cupboard, pulling out something and putting it on, removing her glasses.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tony was trapped beneath a strong monster, wheezing and struggling to get out. That’s when thin tendrils of amber energy circled it, then it was launched back and into a building, Vienna standing there in her crafted suit; an amber plated armour that she and Tony collaborated on. “Are you good, Mr Stark?” She questioned, running forward. “Yeah, I’m good. Peter’s following the wizard, I have been stuck beneath this guy, everything’s good.” “VIENNA! TONY, WHAT THE HECK?!” Bruce came running, angry but not transforming. “We need her, Bruce, she’s the only one we can get stat.” ‘UH, MR STARK?! I’M HAVING TROUBLE HERE!’ Peter’s voice rang through both comms, and both adults didn’t even blink before Vienna was gone, running to aid Peter. Bruce sprinted after her, shouting about his rule of them not talking. “Pete!” Vienna yelled, running forward and jumping, extending her legs only to be thrown aside by Ebony Maw. Bruce arrived just to see her leap for Peter, face riddled with passion, but was thrown away effortlessly. Then she got up and tried again, her amber energy wrapping round Maw’s fingers, preventing them from moving. She was scrunching her face up in concentration and anger, pulling with all her might, away from the one she loved. It occurred to Bruce just then that he might’ve made a mistake. A big one. Vienna and Peter were meant to be, and how they fought for each other just then showed him exactly why they were meant to be. They were prepared to risk their life for the other, and he would be a terrible brother if he didn’t let them have what they wanted. He took a leap to be with Nat, so it wouldn’t be so bad to see these two live their lives. As Vienna’s eyes came in contact with his, he gave a slight nod, an ecstatic smile spreading across her lips and she gave one last strong tug, sending Maw tumbling sideways. Peter climbed down from his cornered position, taking off his mask as they joined their lips, fireworks practically exploding between them as they held onto one another like they couldn’t let go. “Vienna.” He repeated her name over and over before a beam took them both up. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It was the final battle, and all Vienna wanted to do was find Peter. She didn’t blip, being part of the escapade back in time, and using her fingers to snap the gauntlet. Now she was in the middle of a battle, amber colour flying everywhere as she searched in the chaos for her boyfriend. She found him, cowering beneath a rock in all the madness, so she rushed over to comfort him, tell him it’s ok. Sliding beside him, she wrapped her arms round him, cradling him to her chest and whispering comforting words in his ear, leaning his clammy forehead on hers. “Hey, you’re alright. You’re with me, everything’s going to be ok.” Then she winced as a sudden pain ripped through her stomach, Peter screaming as he looked down at her stomach and so did she, a blade stuck right through, dripping with blood, the red liquid pouring in torrents onto his hand. It retracted, revealing one of Thanos’s minions, who departed as Vienna touched her lips in shock, finding blood at the brim. Collapsing sideways, a scream of her name pierced the air as Tony, Pepper and Bruce looked over, flying to the scene. “No, not now, Vienna, please.” Bruce pleaded as his large green hand held Vienna’s tiny one in his hand as Tony’s and Pepper’s helmets lifted, both of them upset and in shock. Tears were running down Pepper and Bruce’s cheeks, staining the ground which was mingling with the blood red colour, Tony biting back tears he didn’t let fall. “Glowstick, oh my god…” Peter was bending his head over hers, his tears falling on her cheeks, the light dimming in her eyes. “Guys…” She hoarsely wheezed, coughing a little. “This is… the end of the line… for me.” She croaked, holding her wound like it was a piece of porcelain. “No, you’ll be ok-” Bruce was silenced by Vienna shaking her head weakly, a small, tear-stained smile gracing her lips. “I’m sorry…” Her head fell sideways, eyes still open and empty, her

last tear rolling slowly down her cheek. Peter looked at his shaking hands, covered in her blood from the tip of his nail to the bottom of his wrist. Her blood was literally on his hands, her death was his fault. “I-I… this is my fault.” He sobbed, falling into Pepper’s arms as Tony was attracted to Thanos, having to go and fight. “None of this is your fault, Peter.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A year later, Peter visited the graveyard where Vienna had been buried. But the tombstone had disappeared. “What the-” He dwelled on it the entire school trip, until he went in the bunker with Nick Fury, finding a team there. Dimitri, Beck, Hill and… Oh my god. “Hey, Pete.” Vienna softly said, waving. Her glasses had gone somehow, and she looked a little older, but the life was in her eyes and the colour in her cheeks, her mouth stretched in an apologetic smile. He had a flashback to the day he was left, shaking, looking at her blood dripping from his fingers and how he believed it was all his fault she died. But she’s… alive. The room dissipated at the sight of the two, seeing they needed privacy. How? “After the battle, T‘Challa found me and brought me to Wakanda since only an inch of me was left alive. I was nursed back to health and sent here to help with the upcoming threat-” His lips claimed hers again, the long-awaited kiss bringing back all the emotions he’d felt for her. “I’ve found you again.” He grinned, leaning his forehead on hers in ecstasy, holding her like he’d never let her go. Not anymore.

Arcade (Sonic x Violetta)

A broken heart was all that Violetta had. She was still trying to fix it with whatever she could find, emotions, glue, even duct tape but she lost all of her pieces when she tried to stand up and carry on. She couldn’t go to him, run in his arms and stay there forever because he simply didn’t deserve her. She was horrifying, and even if no one knew the only thing she was afraid of was herself. Being the Black Assassin shattered her, tore her apart and pushed her over the edge. And being in love with someone? Even more so.

Sonic always thought that love came last. It was a distraction, something that draws you in and drops you. But now, life was a distraction from love. He knew that his love capacity had been long gone, but now he wasn’t so sure. But him and Violetta, an assassin, that’s a losing game. But he was addicted like a small town boy in a big arcade, wanting more, to play the game again and again. “Do you love me?” He asked, voice trembling with tears, to the one in front of him. She nodded, wiping the pouring tears from her eyes and fiddling with the electric setting of her suit. She was sent to seduce and kill him but now she fell in love with him herself. “Then why can’t we be together? What’s holding you back?” He wept, waiting for the inevitable response. “You don’t deserve someone like me. You’re sweet, kind and heroic, and I’m an abomination, the true method of destruction. There’s no chance we can be together.” She replied, biting her lip while her hair fell over her face. It broke her to see him like this. He was so madly in love with her that no matter who she was he’d love her. “No. You’re beautiful, smart, amazing, and no matter what you do, I’ll love you. Violetta, I’m never going to let go of you.” He took her hand, rubbing his thumb over the material, but she took her hand out of his. “You have to forget me.” Violetta refused, stepping back. “I can’t!” Sonic cried, stepping forward, “Can’t you see that I love you?!” “You can’t love me. Whoever you can love it can’t be me. I’m sorry, Sonic. I just can’t put you in danger.” For one last chance at persuasion, Sonic grabbed Violetta and planted a tear-stained kiss on her lips, but when he pulled away he didn’t see any change in her eyes. “You can’t have me.” She turned away, walking away, casting the purple dahlia he gave her on the floor at his feet, the giver watching as she disappeared into the sunset, just a silhouette. Out of everyone he could possibly love, why her?

Digital Love (PETER PARKER)

Summary: Bruce Banner’s little sister wasn’t always the extrovert. So Tony assigned her to act as Peter Parker’s AI, but what he didn’t account for was the two falling in love. Vienna Banner was always an insecure, nerdy little girl. She wore cute tees paired with a plaid shirt on top, jeans with headphones clamped every now and then around her ears, her round glasses tucked in the collar of her plaid shirt when she did so because she couldn’t fit them on without her ears hurting. She was Bruce Banner’s younger sister, and an almost exact copy with her dark brown hair and soft blue-green eyes (though her brother’s were brown); a genius in science, maths, english, you name it. Tony had sought her out after Bruce happily talked about his family, eventually finding her in the Galapagos Islands, collecting chemicals from flowers. The strangest thing was… that she was the person who manned Karen, Peter Parker’s ‘suit lady’. Tony Stark decided that the mechanism in Peter’s suit wasn’t an AI, but a very compassionate girl. Right now she was sat in her room, in front of a mic while watching Peter’s impressions of Thor in the mirror. “Your impressions are very funny.” She almost giggled, the voice coming out robotically on the other end, continuing to do what Peter asked. When Peter’s suit shut down she set her work down, hearing a knock on the door. “Kiddo?” Tony’s brash voice was muffled on the other side of the wood plank people call a door. “Come in, sir.” She called, twisting around in her chair to see her co-mentor (Bruce was off-world) strut in with a tray consisting of a plate of tomato spaghetti, a Real Shirley Temple mocktail and a bowl of chocolate sauce-covered vanilla ice cream which was put on a plate that constantly shot cold air at it. “Just in case the Spiderling decided to turn his suit on again. You’re working extra late hours and I really don’t want Green Killing Machine blowing up my penthouse because you didn’t eat at all.” But Vienna knew that the words were Tony Stark for ‘I care about you despite you not being my child and I don’t want you to starve.’. When he’d left, Vienna was pondering on something. She’d been Peter’s AI for about a month now. In between a mouthful of spaghetti, her feelings for the web-slinger built up in her chest, warming her veins and heart, tingles shooting through her fingers. Vienna constantly wondered what it would be like to go out there and do things like her dad, her crush and Iron Man. True, she wasn’t the type to actually full-on fight but Natasha had been training her and said she was an Avengers-level fighter. After the explosion which granted Bruce his condition that forced him to rampage, the gamma radiation affected Vienna too. When she used her powers of wispy, glowing energy, her eyes turned amber, the same colour as her energy. Ever since then, she wanted to go out there, mess around, fight bad guys and meet the one person she longed to meet since a month.

Peter Parker.

She’d seen him in the mirror and talked to him enough to gain a crush on him, just seeing his face crinkle into a grin whenever she said something particularly witty, and his body relaxing after a tense night of fighting with only her words for comfort, but she wanted him to know her as Vienna. Not Karen, not suit lady, just normal Vienna. But it’s hard to love someone you haven’t met face to face. Peter was lying in bed thinking about one thing. Karen. Something very strange had happened to him recently. He wanted to talk to the AI he once called ‘suit lady’ more and more. Ever time he put down the mask he wanted to put it on again and chat with her all night long. She just gets him. A blush crept onto his cheeks as a lovesick smile took over his Cupid’s bow lips, his Hershey’s eyes dreamy and clouded over. “Uh oh, I know that look. Is it a girl?” May was standing at the door, looking like she just got a puppy. “Yeah,” He blushed even deeper when she squealed happily, “B-But here’s the problem. I haven’t even met her. She literally talks to me and tells me what to do; I don’t even know what she looks like! But she’s sweet and funny, and knows how to make me laugh and cheers me up when I need it-” “Have you been using Childline?” May interrupted, raising her eyebrows. “N-No! You’re my Childline, May, I-I don’t know how to describe it. She’s just… special.” “I felt that way when I met your uncle. Now, off to bed. I don’t know how you stay up, I was just about to drift off…” After the door shut, Peter sighed. It’s impossible to love your AI, even if they get you in a way no one else will. Vienna, in the meanwhile, was doing a Harry Potter movie marathon in her bedroom before Tony came in. “D’you need me, sir?” She smiled, jumping off the bed. “If I did, Friday would be calling you right now. I came to check on your crush on the Spiderling.” Her breath hitched in her throat; Vienna didn’t know that Tony knew. “It’s a little bit obvious. By the way, keep your cool because Pete’s going to be coming to the compound in a second.” Her hands gripped the edge of her bowl of Smarties, almost so hard her knuckles went white. Sweat dripped off her forehead, her glasses sliding to her nose. “Oh god. Um… are you sure you still want me to work on Spider-Man’s suit functions in the lab? I’m just about to finish the settings for Instant Kill…” she trailed off when Tony looked at her as if to say ‘don’t you dare change the topic’. The computer bleeped, going online, saving Vienna from the dreaded mentor talk that she would’ve received from her brother if he was there. “You take that, Pepper and Steve’ll be there for you since I’m going to… drop off.” Leaving, Vienna readied her mic. “Hey Karen.” Came the shy voice of Peter, seeing the top mattress of his bunk bed. “Hello Peter. How was your day?” She replied, adjusting her glasses nervously, her cheeks flushed with admiration for the boy. “It was good. I got to know MJ more, did a Star Wars marathon with Ned, all the usual.” “That sounds lovely. You seem 95% more nervous than usual. Is there anything you want to talk about?” Vienna asked, watching his vital readings. “Can I ask you for advice?” He blurted suddenly, seeing his visual shift upright. “You can ask me anything.” “Can you like someone you’ve never met before?” He asked, his heart rate seeming like it was pounding through the vital scanner. “Of course you can. Long-distance love is a very common occurrence.” “Whew! I thought it was crazy.” “You’ll never be crazy to me, Peter.” “Thanks, Karen. I know I can rely on you.” As he signed off, so did she, feeling 90% warmer than before. She picked a picture of Peter up on the bedside table (she assumed Tony left it there because it wasn’t there before) and hugged it tightly. “I love you, Peter Parker.”

Later, Vienna was jamming to music while typing code into Peter’s Instant Kill mechanisms. “Uh… hello?” Vienna jumped, pulling her headphones off her ears to find a soft brown-haired boy with equally soft chocolate eyes, rocking back and forth on his feet, Cupid bow’s mouth slightly open. “Oh God! I didn’t mean to s-scare you a-are you ok?!”

Damn no. It’s Peter Parker.

”H-How can I h-help you?” She asked, getting up, turning off her music and hurriedly putting her black glasses on. Upon seeing her put them on, tingles appeared at Peter’s cheeks, his heart heating up like a radiator. “Mr Stark sent me here. Apparently you had some improvements for my Spider-Man suit?” Peter looked so lost and confused it melted her, so she nodded. “That is correct. I’m Vienna, if you’d follow me to my lab, it isn’t here, this is just the general tinkering room.” She felt so nervous in front of her long-time crush, it was overwhelming. “So… I’m Peter.” Peter coughed awkwardly, both blushing in the presence of the other. “Yeah, Mr Stark told me about you and how I needed to make some corrections to your suit. Ah! We’re here.” Pushing open a lab door, they both went in, sitting down at a table while Peter’s duffel bag hung around at his side. Vienna brought up a hologram of Peter’s suit, showing him what was there. After that was done, Peter bit his lip before calling out, “Can you help me with something?” Vienna turned around, mildly smiling. “I can help you with anything, Peter.” The sentence rang familiarly in Peter’s head, but he couldn’t quite place where he heard it from. Instead, he brought the suit out and she turned around while he put it on. When she did, he turned around. “Can you show me how to activate all this stuff?” Peter asked shyly, lifting his arms up by his side a little. “‘K. Just-“ He started to put the mask on, alarm bells ringing inside her head. In every room there was a copy of the laptop and mic so Vienna could access Peter’s database wherever. And being that her laptop was in that very room, it dinged, a picture of Peter’s visuals and vitals appearing on the screen. “What’s that?” He questioned, pointing to the screen. “It’s n-nothing.” He advanced, the eye part of his mask widening when he saw that on the computer was what he saw, which was the screen itself. “Karen?” No answer. “Yes Peter?” Then the comforting voice came, but as he looked up, Vienna was saying those words into a microphone, his whole reality crashing down. “My suit isn’t an AI, is it?” He asked, feeling overjoyed, running his hand through his brown locks. He‘d been harbouring a crush on his suit lady for so long and now he realised she was real. And Karen, aka Vienna, was perfect, so damn perfect. “I know this isn’t what you were expecting-” “No. It isn’t, really.” He approached her, running his eyes down her features, the way she clasped her plaid shirt sleeve nervously, and the soft crinkle of her eyebrows that waited for his outburst, and her full yet slightly heart shaped lips slightly parted in anticipation of his yelling. If Peter had imagined his AI to look like anything, it would be Vienna. “It’s cause… I thought Karen was an AI.” He murmured, running a finger along her jaw, infatuated, “But you… are perfect.” Vienna felt a pair of smooth, soft lips against hers, hands cupping her face and threading his fingers in her dark chocolate locks, the train of realisation telling her it was Peter. She didn’t really know how to kiss, but she tried to play along, sliding her hand to his neck, smiling as she moved her lips along tentatively, before joining with full intent. ‘Tony, you idiot.’ Vienna thought as Peter’s hands left her cheeks, passing her plaid shirt and holding onto her waist. As far as first kisses went, Vienna thought it couldn’t be better than what it was now. She felt Peter’s lips leave her, glossed-over, lovesick eyes never leaving hers, and she was pretty sure hers had hearts in them. “What did you do to me, Vienna?” He murmured, joining them back together, just feeling like it was them and the love they had for each other- “WHAT THE HELL?!” They jumped apart and saw Vienna’s brother, Bruce Banner, standing at the door while squeezing a stress buster. “Vienna- what are you- I’ve been away for a month and this happens!” He quietly said, dangerously though, arms crossed. “Yeah, and?” Vienna had never stood up or answered back to her brother, but this…

was her life. She calls the shots. “And… from now on you two aren’t able to even see each other.” He spat harshly. Bruce didn’t want his beloved little sister’s heart to get broken, so this is what he had to do. But Tony’s harsh drawing in of breath and Vienna’s broken expression told him otherwise, watching as she ran away, Peter after her. “I kept your sister happy this whole month you were off-world and this is what happens.” He muttered, pinching his eyebrows as he walked away, muttering under his breath.
