#Troop Movement

[reality-detective]

My sources have revealed that the military is strategically placing equipment all around the country and even in Canada... This confirms the military movement videos I posted below, just scroll down and you will see several. 👇

I asked if it was just an exercise?

The only reply I received is: "Negative"

Keep your eyes 👀 open.

Sorry... I have no other information 🤔

so do u think the emperor of The Double has just resigned himself at this point, to the irrefutable truth that his partner in nation building & court schemes is now spending 85% of his energy pondering & stalking a relatively attractive and talented noblewoman that his top scholar had married and then buried alive a few months ago.

and now said partner in crime just brings him exponentially unhinged plans of action that are OBVIOUSLY in service of his yearning for this lady, but that he's ready to defend with 45 minutes of rhetoric about how it's totally in the best interest of your majesty and the country.

I think one of my problems with plotting fiction longer than 15K is that I fundamentally do not like it when things happen, in the real world, that involve having to go places or move objects. My ideal conflict is someone sitting in a quiet room (that is not described) staring at a math puzzle to decode some emotionally important message. I would prefer not to describe their locomotion in and out of that room either. I don't want to depict people who have more active lifestyles than me, a remote worker who stresses herself out constantly about absolutely nothing. I am well aware that this is a lethal flaw in a fiction writer

Do you know what kind of research it takes to make up fake European countries? Language, culture, population, where they are and wtf happened to them in WWII since that sets up their post war alignments, how have they retained their monarchies (which means considering what was happening in the Napoleonic era and 1848)...

Fake midwest towns with bland names like Leafville are way easier.

"I hate how American media will just make up a European nation rather than do any research, so I'm going to get back at them by writing a story set in a fake American state" like, do you have the slightest idea how much American media is set in a geographically impossible fictional small town located in no particular state and characterised entirely by some guy from Los Angeles' collection of half-remembered stereotypes about the American Midwest? They've already got the "lazily inventing fictional parts of America" bit locked down.

No, if you want to play the Uno reverse card on American media, what you need to do isn't to make up a fake state: you specifically need to wilfully misrepresent southern California.

2 guys got drafted and they reported to the 🏰 city Armory and were shipped 🚢 out to Detroit for processing. They never came back. I realized that day if I was 🔞 18 that I would have been drafted cause my 🔢 lottery number was 011.

I think it's also important to get rid of the "everyone was united during WWII!" narrative. Because there were definitely people who opposed the war at the time.

The final case is the arguable first Civil Rights movement in US history:

In this case specifically Civil Rights, as a step up from abolition as the first baseline goal. During the war then as later Black soldiers were paid less than white soldiers, a case of the kind of systemic discrimination that affected free Black people before the War of the Rebellion and all of them afterward. The USCT of the War of the Rebellion refused to accept this, organized a direct action strike, and forced the government to pay them equally. This helped stand them in good stead to face what Reconstruction faced them with. It also underscored the blindness of Northern elites and what they thought the postwar war world should be versus what the people actually living in the South hoped for, and dreamed for.

"Amidst a war-torn town, a sniper encounters a saboteur near a crucial bridge. Tension rises as fingers hover over triggers. Unexpected laughter breaks the standoff. Now, the sniper must act before the saboteur strikes again. #SpeculativeFiction #WarZone

The siege broke. After many days of artillery and pop of small arms fire, tonight the fighting is far up the valley leaving the streets almost peaceful. If not for the piss of near-frozen rain that leaves everything wet and miserable. It’s in this peace the sniper decides it’s time to move. He scrambles out of the hole he made for himself with multiple escape routes and eyes in just about every…

Getting caught while checking Sanemi out

„Well…y’know…I���“

Fuck. You stumble over your own words like an idiot. But that view…Your eyes are literally glued to his exposed chest, how his muscle strands move with each and every minor movement of his arms. Of course, entering the elite troop of the demon slayer corps meant surrounding yourself with fit people. After all, it’s a fact that they are very disciplined, training day in and out just like you did those past months.

But the sight of the wind hashira sitting in front of you, his exposed chest so well-lit by the moonlight while his arm rests on his lap so casually. Fuck, this man is way too attractive.

“Stop staring at me like that, idiot”, the wind hashira barks at you.

Fuck. You feel your cheeks heating up in an instant, eyes now focused on the dirt underneath your feet. If there’s one thing that’s worse than staring at someone so shamelessly, it’s getting caught by that exact person. Damn, you’re a grown woman, you’ve seen countless men when fighting for the demon slayer corps. Why did you get so distracted by him?

“I-I’m so s-sorry”, you stutter like the idiot you are.

“I-I didn’t m-mean to-“

“She was just checking you out”, the serpent hashira interferes with his voice dripping in boredom.

“Why would you check me out, brat?”

“I-I didn’t mean to!”

“Get lost now…”, Sanemi mumbles while turning his back on you.

“Oh…yeah…I-I should get going.”

He doesn’t have to tell you twice. In the matter of seconds you’re gone in the wind with only your scent remaining in the air as a proof of your existence.

“What do you think about (y/n)? I heard she’s quite a good combat fighter”, Obanai comments dryly while staring into the woods.

Urgh. Sanemi hates to even think about the way you made fighting look so effortlessly and how perfect your hair frames your gorgeous face. Always watching you from afar, not even daring to show himself to your eyes. Did you really just check him out just because of his loose-fitting uniform? There’s no way you’d actually choose him out of all people. Haven’t you seen Tengen, Gyomei, even Giyu? Compared to them, he’s definitely nothing special.

And maybe even a little mean.

“So what? She’ll die like the others.”

“Irritated because she was checking you out?”

“Stop talking bullshit, she wasn’t even looking my way”, Sanemi barks at the man sitting next to him in an instant.

“Why are you blushing, then?”

Him, blushing? Out of instinct, Sanemi smacks his already hot cheek. Why the hell does he feel so hot now? Just because you looked his way? Just because your eyes darkened when you gazed at his chest, leaving you so flustered that he didn’t know how to act?

Fuck. Just thinking about the way you blushed and tried to stutter your way out while looking at him with doe eyes…

“I’m literally seeing you fall.”

“You start sounding like Kanroji-“

“Don’t dare to drag her into this”, Obanai hisses through gritted teeth.
