what if miguel and reader have a fight? and they're trying to keep the fight away from gabi and ben but they end up seeing some of it and get upset đđŤśđť
Oh god. *Trauma unlocked* đŤ đŤ
Bit of angst and little longer than I intended
Make up here â¤ď¸ ~
Gabi noticed how silent you and Miguel were. Her eyes noticed how your hand flinched ever softly from his, only for him to retract his hand and grip the wheel tightly. It had been like this ever since the soccer practice was over. Had something happened?
------
She didn't know. But the quietness didn't set up good on her chest.
"Papa? Are you okay?"
Miguel's eyes watched her from the mirror and nodded.
"Of course, Solecito."
"What happened to your hand?"
"I got injured" He nodded softly and maneuvered the lever.
"Oh..." That's all she managed to utter. You on the other hand were looking absentminded through the window as you were fetching Benjamin from Peter's home.
-------
Ride back home was quiet, you took Benjamin and took him to his crib, he was a year now. Rebellious and black curls perched on his little head, bounced as he was put to sleep. Miguel was unpacking and you had decided to just get ready to sleep.
The fight had surely surprised you, not that you were scared of Miguel, it was just a behavior you rarely, if not ever, that you saw in him.
Gabriela took a bath, not really wanting to dinner, after all she had been treated with a Happy Meal at McDonald's.
You took a shower and changed, Miguel entering the room.
"So... I'm getting a silent treatment now?"
His voice calm, a stark contrast as how he was hours ago.
"No. Just..." You sighed, "Didn't actually expect you to hit that man."
"He was harassing you. Someone had to stop him."
"But hit him?" He sighed. "I know you, and that is really out of your character. Is... something wrong?"
"No." He spoke as he removed his t shirt
"I know work has been hard for you, and the kids, the house renovations, it can be stressful-"
"Ya estuvo, sĂ? DĂŠjalo ." (Knock it off. Just leave it.) His tone firm, your lips remained shut as tears welled up in your eyes. You just nodded but your eyes drifted to Gabriela. Your heart wrenched at her expression. Fear, concern and sadness. She rushed to her room, leaving you both behind.
Miguel's head hung and he rubbed his face, realizing how the tension between you two was affecting everyone around.
"I'll get it." You mumbled and left the room. Following Gabriela, you knocked on her door and she buried herself further in the sheets.
"Mi amor?" She remained laid down, her back facing you, your steps guided you to her bed and sat next to her. She looked at you with wet eyes. It caused you to almost cry on your own.
"Is Papa okay?" she turned to face you, and you couldn't help but caress her hair.
"I... I don't know, mi amor."
"Are you angry at him?"
You shook your head and cradled her head softly.
"No mi amor. I'm not. I'm just concerned about him."
"I don't like when you fight." Another stab in your heart.
"I'm sorry you had to see that, mi amor. Sometimes stress is too much for adults and... we don't really mean things that we say, or the things we do out of impulse."
"Victor said that Papa had hit his uncle. Is that true?" Her eyes looked at you, searching for honesty.
"He... did. But his uncle did something really bad."
"What did he do?"
"He... touched me without my consent. And Papa got angry."
"Are you okay, Mama?"
"Yes, solecito. Your dad protected me from that man."
"Then why you flinched from Papa?"
You weren't expecting such comment
"Are you scared of dad?"
"No, cariĂąo. I know he would never hurt me or any of us. But I also know that fighting isn't the way to solve problems. And it worries me cause... he never fights or id violent."
"Is something bothering him?"
"I don't know. He won't talk about it. But it's fine. Maybe he needs some space." Gabriela frowned but sighed.
"Im really sorry you had to see that, cariĂąo. Whatever is happening, it's not your fault okay? This is between Papa and I. Understand?"
She nodded and hugged you.
"Don't fight, ok?"
You nodded as you did your best to hold it together.
"We'll try, mi amor."
Miguel heard from outside the door, uncomfortableness setting on his head. He just needed to find a way to make it up to you and his kids.

Headcanons for being Peter Parkerâs Younger Sibling
Peter Parker x sibling!reader
warnings: bullying mention, blood mention
a/n: a fuckin reach, its been a WHILE since ive seen tasm
prompt: y/n is peterâs sibling
peter and you were playful kids
you were just a year and some months younger than him, so you had a harder time remembering your parents than him
but he always told you stories about them that made you miss them a little more
peter was a genius, we all know it
he was the one helping you with your homework most nights
âpeter i cant do it!â
âthatâs okay, y/n. look, start with two times four, thatâs eight, then four times six, twenty-four, right?â
âcan i say a cuss word?â
âsureâ
âmath is shitâ
you would cry during homework a lot
youâd also pass out on his floor after talking for hours
and youâd either wake up facedown on the floor or in your room since uncle ben would pick you up and put you to bed
peter took it upon himself to take you back to your room, but he usually dragged you by the arm, sooooo
youâd play action figures together
he was batman, you were robin always
âcan i be batman?â
âoldest gets to be batman so im batmanâ
âbut i wanna be batman!â
peter walked you to your school before taking off on his skateboard
and heâd pick you up on his way home
on half-days your brother taught you how to skate
you fell a lot
aunt may had to patch you up
âhow many times do i have to tell you those skateboards are dangerous?!â
peter got you your own skateboard so that you could practice without him
you would text him after you did a trick and heâd always say hell yes! show me when i get home!
being his photography assistant
really you were his assistant constantly
science fair was the most boring day of the year
ây/n, stand right here, i need to get something from my lockerâ
*judges walk up while youre left unattended and in a state of PANIC*
you were bullied in middle school, same as peter, heâd always stick up for you and get beat up instead
it made you very mad but it was scary, too
âhowâd you get into this fight, peter?â
âoh, you know, just happenedâ
âpeter was sticking up for me, uncle benâ
âwas he now? youâre a good brother, peterâ
lonely when he moved onto high school :/
but you got there soon enough
you guys were kind of loners, just ate lunch together, lugged around your skateboards, you were an artist, he was a photographer
just spectating the chaos of high school, rolling your eyes at the drama
âi have two bucks, do you want anything from the vending machine?â
âuhh, a coke?â
you saw peter get bullied by flash and lost your shitttt
you actually started a food fight after throwing mashed potatoes in his eyes
âwhat the hell, parker?!â
âsit down and eat your goddamn food, flash, or next time it wont be potatoesâ
peter was half-proud, half-embarrassed
trying to see how long you could skate through the halls before any authority figures stopped you
sometimes......you guys got sent to the office together :)
*phone ringing* âhello, is this ben parker?â
âwhich one of them is it this time?â
the principalâs office was a trip sometimes
you and peter exchange your glances and wait to get scolded
âah, the parkers, come in, lets have a chat...why do you two always feel the need to get in trouble together?â
âwe just happen to get along really well for siblingsâ
no you fuckin dont lmaoooo
it was always something with you two
like always
*banging on peterâs door* âI KNOW YOU HAVE MY BROWNIES, PETER, GIVE THEM BACKâ
*peter through a mouthful of brownies* âI HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOURE TALKING ABOUT, YOURE CRAZYâ
âis that my jacket?â -peter
âyou mean my jacket?â
ây/n, i swear to god if you steal any more of my clothes itâs over for youâ
âwell, aunt may keeps giving me your clothes, so take it up with herâ
and then there was just the little annoying things
âpeter, can you stop clicking your pen?â
*clicks pen faster*
âyouâre the worstâ
and my personal favorite
âpeter, open the doorâ
âwhy?â
âemergencyâ
*opens bedroom door* âwhat?â
âaunt may is making meatloafâ
âshit, uh...get your board, weâll skate to mcdonalds and tell her we already ateâ
peter and you RARELY ever brought your parents up until he found your dadâs briefcase, you didnât have much to say
soon he was flooding his room with conspiracies and pulling you in to explain them
he began acting REALLY weird, but he was pretty open with you, he told you he went to oscorp
âYOU SNUCK IN??â
âyour standards for me are way too high, y/nâ
soon you started to feel not-so-good and weird things started to happen
âpeter??â
âyeah? whats up?â
âthis is gonna sound really weird...my hand is stuck to the doorâ
âit happened to you, too??â
âhappening, pete. waitâthis happened to you?? what is this???????â
yall done fucked up and got bit by spiders peter had so carelessly brought back into the house
it was an adjustment to say the least
and this adjustment got a whole lot harder that one night...you can remember peter just...so upset
you tried to chase him out to make sure he was okay, but uncle ben told you to stay with your aunt
maybe if youâd have been there...it wouldâve been different, but when the cops got to your house you were at a loss for words
peter was covered in his blood still
âhey, hey, just breathe, okay? itâs not your fault, peter. just hop in the shower, yeah? iâll take care of your clothesâ
when peter took your advice and you were left alone, you just cried, you cried until he finally found you curled up in a ball in your room
then he cried, you just hugged each other sobbing your eyes out
peter got distant for a while, which was rough since the two of your were mourning for your uncle and dealing with these newfound powers
sooner or later he came around and helped you out, designing webshooters and a suit for you
âwe match?â
*sigh* âyeah...yeah, we matchâ
ah yes, spider-team
you really tripped out new york at first, they thought spider-man was a teleporter
peter was still talking about your dad, but you really didnât care, uncle ben was always going to be who raised you
you and peter would be covered in bruises after going out
âuhâpeter punched meâ
ây/n???!!!â
âI PANICKEDâ
just being dumb scared teens that cant function to save their lives until they get a little bit lucky
seriously like, every big villain you guys fought was just the worst
peter didnât help all the time, he was good at provoking them sometimes
âhey, spider-man, you mind shutting up for a minute? for my sake?â
âsorry, sorry, just couldnât help myself!â
he gushed to you about gwen stacy, he actually dragged you to her apartment to be patched up by her SEVERAL TIMES
yadda yadda yadda peter graduated high school! how cool is that? but he was late (what a surprise) even though you put off spidering today just for this
but he made it and you clapped the loudest for him
âthats my brotherrrr!!!â
cute family picture! (aunt may printed a bunch of them and gave them to you two and peter pinned them to his wall)
you and peter actually have a lot of pictures of the two of you just goofing off
he has one of you stuck in a trash can that cracks him up every time
seeing harry osborn again after YEARS
âwow, y/n, last time i saw you i just thought you were peterâs annoying little siblingâ
âaww, itâs good to see you, tooâ
electrooooo
this guy really worried you bc like, bzzzz shock
you and peter werenât equipped for that
it took a while, but you were finally able to deal with that
and several other problems
including peterâs breakup, which was a whole ordeal of its own
*peter laying upside down on your bed* âi dont know, y/n, you know? i wanna be with her so bad, i love her...but her dad is haunting meâ
*you, drawing on your notepad with your legs propped up on his* âyeah, makes senseâ
you actually had to tap out during the end of electro, you were hurt pretty bad
ây/n, hey? yeah, youâre okay. stay here, just stay right there, iâm gonna be back for youâ
*thumbs up to show youre still alive*
but when peter came back for you there was bad news, heâd lost gwen
he ripped his mask off and fell to his knees, you could barely move but you powered through it, giving him a hug while he cried
âwe...we better get home before aunt may starts to worryâ
she was at work, so you two had the place to yourselves to clean up and mourn before the official news was revealed
âi should have listened to her dad, y/n, this is all my faultâ
he was a mess, you couldnât bare seeing him like this. itâs been so long since youâd seen him like this
the funeral was rough, peter was grasping onto your shoulder the whole time
he insisted that he was going to stick behind and stay with gwen for a while
âokay, iâll see you at home...love youâ
âlove you tooâ
you gave him a hug and left him to his business, the next few months you were the only spider-person operating in new york...until rhino popped up
âim coming with youâ
âyouâre sure?â
âyeah, im sureâ
(these are kinda ass but anyways im tagging my marvel ppl even tho ik this isnt mcu so just ignore this post if you dont care, sorry!!)

Will You Marry Me?
Pairing: Jake Gyllenhaal x F!Reader
Warnings: None
Genre: Pure Fluff
Requested: Nope
Summary: Y/N babysits her sister's son and Jake decides to propose.
Author's Note: Hi! I'm currently working on a fanfic requested by @rougese7en but it's not over yet so till that time enjoy this already written fic.
Y/N - Your Name
Y/S/N - Your Sister's Name
[Husband]- Your Sister's Husband's Name (tf)
---
Y/N POV:
"Really, now, you want me to look after Try?" I sighed. My sister looked at me pleadingly. "Please, Y/N, [Husband] and I have not enjoyed for 4 years, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity!"
"Exaggerating but alright," I chuckled. Really, Tristan was a handful. He was my nephew, my sister's boy. At only 4 years old, he knew how to wreak havoc very well. "Please?"
"I'll stay, don't worry. Dates with Jake will come and go," I told her and she hugged me tightly. "Thank you so much, Y/N, you're the best," [Husband] grinned. They were already dressed for the evening.Â
Tristan then came out of the kitchen, covered in flour, coughing. "Tristan!" my sister sighed as I burst out laughing. "I'll look after him, you guys enjoy," I wheezed as my sister gave Tristan a look of disappointment.Â
Tristan simply grinned at her. "Alright, baby, mommy's not gonna hug you because then you'll ruin her dress. Goodbye!" she cooed at him. "Say goodbye to mommy and daddy?" [Husband] asked.Â
"Bye!" Tristan squealed and ran back into the kitchen. Two minutes later, we heard a thud. My sister groaned as her husband dragged her out of the house, laughing. Tristan walked back outside.Â
"Did you fall?" I asked him as he sat on the floor in front of the couch, teary eyed. "Yes, auntie Y/N," he sniffled. I snorted and dialled Jake's number. If you didn't know, I was dating Jake Gyllenhaal.Â
We had been dating for seven years now. "Y/N? Aw come on, don't tell me you're cancelling?!" Jake whined as soon as he picked up the call. "Sorry, bubba, I have to. I'm looking after Tristan, you're welcome to join."
"That monster? Hell no," Jake scoffed and I laughed. Jake and I knew each other's families very well by now. "Your call. I'm staying, my sis and bro have already left, I have no choice."
"I understand, sweetie. Well, why don't we reschedule for tomorrow?" he offered. "Sounds like a plan. I gotta go now, Tristan's covered in flour and I have to give him a bath and clean the kitchen."
"Enjoy," Jake cooed condescendingly. "Duck off, you a-hole," I growled and the last thing I heard as I ended the call was Jake's wheezing. "Tristan, let's give you a bath, come on darling."
He stood up and walked towards the bathroom. I first went to his room and got his towel. When I returned to the bathroom, I had to refrain myself from laughing. Tristan, clothing still intact, was sitting in the bathtub.Â
The faucet was on, spraying water on Tristan. This was too cute not to tape. I whipped out my phone and started recording him. "Tristan, what are you doing?" I asked him. "Taking a bath!"
"You⌠you gotta take off your clothes, little man," I chuckled. "No you don't," Tristan scoffed, grinning and squealing at the cold water falling on him. Geez, this kid. I ended the video and sent it to Jake.
Trying to bathe him, gone wrong.Â
I helped Tristan undress, turned on the hot water and finally gave Tristan a proper bath. I don't know how my sister had been doing this for 4 years. After we were done, I wrapped a towel around him.Â
I carried Tristan to his bedroom and put him in his pajamas. I heard a 'bing!' on my phone when I was putting him in a t-shirt. Tristan ran out of the room as I picked up my phone. Jake had replied.Â
Nearly died laughing. That kid is chaotic đ¤Ł
I chuckled and kept my phone away. I walked out of the room and went to the sitting room. Tristan was sitting on the couch, trying to turn the TV on. "You need help, little guy?" I asked him.Â
He handed the remote to me and I put on Peppa Pig on the TV. Tristan was silent for a long time after that, so I decided to go clean the kitchen. Thankfully, there was only flour to clean up, nothing else.Â
As soon as I was done with that, I heard Tristan screaming. I ran outside, scared and laughed when I understood what was going on. Tristan was crying grossly because Peppa dropped her ice cream onscreen.Â
One more memorable moment. I paused the TV at the exact time Peppa had dropped the ice cream and started recording Tristan. "Tristan? Honey, what's wrong?" I asked him.Â
"Ice cream," Tristan sobbed, hastily wiping his tears as more and more tears rolled down his cheeks. "But it's not your ice creamâŚ" I said, a small chuckle escaping my lips.Â
"Huh? It's not?" Tristan asked, his breath hitching. "No!" I laughed this time. "OkayâŚ" Tristan muttered and sniffled, wiping his tears. I cleaned up his face and planted a kiss on his forehead.Â
"Auntie Y/N is going to make dinner for you now. What do you want to eat?" I asked him with a smile. "Chicken nuggets!" Tristan said with a broad grin. To be honest, I wanted those too.Â
"How about we eat dinner from McDonald's today? Only if you won't tell mommy," I whispered to him, recording him for the second time. "Yeah! You promise, auntie?" he whispered back. I nodded.Â
His face lit up as he gave me an enthusiastic high-five. I sat next to him and sent both the videos to Jake. He's crying because Peppa dropped her ice cream smh and Don't tell mommy ;)Â
I called up McDonald's, placed our orders and ended the call. I sat watching Peppa Pig with Tristan afterwards. Honestly, why did I stop watching this show, again? It was so freaking hilarious for an adult.Â
I heard a 'bing!' on my phone and checked it out. Jake had replied to both the videos. Little kids đ¤Śđťââ and You're spoiling him. You're spoiling your nephew, Y/N. I laughed at the second one.Â
What? I'm his best auntie, you have to use dishonest means to maintain that position. A few seconds later, Jake replied, Whatever, you dishonest woman. I think he had nothing better to do.Â
Shut up. I kept my phone away after sending that message. A few minutes later, the bell rang. "Me!" Tristan yelled and ran to open the door. I started recording him again. Whatever he did was funny. It was the delivery guy from McDonald's.
He struggled a bit to open the door but finally when he did, his face fell as he realized there was another door outside. I captured the expression perfectly and laughed to myself.Â
"Step aside, baby, let auntie handle it," I cooed at the boy and he walked away, sulking. I paid for the order and brought the bags inside. "McDonald's!" Tristan grinned, following me to the kitchen.Â
It was comical how fast his mood changed. "Wait, let me put it on a plate, it'll be easier for you to eat," I laughed as he bounced on his feet next to me. He stood still as I took out his box of chicken nuggets.Â
I put them on his plate, emptied two sauce packets in the side compartment and put his fries in the plate. "We're sitting in the dining room." Tristan screamed, "No!" I sighed. I loved him too much to deny him anything.Â
"Fine, we can sit in front of the TV, only if you don't spill anything," I told him with a small smile. "Yay!" he yelled out happily and ran outside. I chuckled and texted Jake. He's throwing tantrums.Â
What did he do? Jake replied a few minutes later as I prepared my own plate of food. Chicken nuggets, fries and a Big Mac. Tristan didn't like burgers yet, so I knew he wouldn't steal my food.Â
I told him we were sitting in the dining room, screamed until I told him we could sit in the living room. I love him too much to deny him anything :') I texted back.Â
Sheesh, Y/N. Be a little firm on that young man, he'll become spoilt. Hold up, I'm joining y'all. My eyes widened and I grinned broadly. I kept my phone away and carried the food outside.Â
Tristan was patiently waiting for his food, watching Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom. "Uncle Jake is joining us," I told Tristan as he delved right into his food. "Uncle Jakey? From TV?"
That's how Tristan knew Jake. Tristan and I were watching Spider-Man: Far From Home one day and when Mysterio came on, I told Tristan he was my boyfriend. Tristan was in awe.Â
Then, when it was revealed Mysterio was the bad guy, Tristan spent the rest of the movie crying. "What if he hurts you, auntie Y/N?!" Tristan had reasoned. Us adults had a good laugh about it.Â
---
I was finished with my food and Tristan had finished his fries when I heard the roaring of a bike outside. "Uncle Jakey?" Tristan asked happily, leaving his food as he stood up.Â
Again, I began recording it. Tristan went to the window and looked outside, trying to see in the dark. I noticed Jake straight away as he parked his bike in the driveway. Then he made his way to the door.Â
Jake rang the bell and Tristan squealed. He was chanting 'Uncle Jakey' the whole time he tried to open the door. I was recording him the entire time, stifling my laughter. Tristan opened the main door.Â
He opened the safety door by himself successfully too. I openly laughed as Tristan threw himself on Jake, yelling 'Uncle Jakey!' for the last time. Jake took a few steps backwards, catching Tristan with an 'oof'. I was definitely putting this on Instagram.Â
I ended the video as Jake carried Tristan inside. "Miss me that much?" he chuckled. "Yeah!" Tristan grinned. "Ooh, do I see chicken nuggets? Are they for me?" Jake asked excitedly, trying to get Tristan to go back to his food so he could say hi to me.Â
"No! Mine," Tristan screeched, running back to his food. I swear, he was so energetic sometimes. "Hi babe," Jake said, looking at me with a soft smile. "Hey," I smiled back, giving him a small peck on the lips.Â
"I missed you a lot," Jake whispered to me, putting his arm around my waist as we walked back to the couch. "I've been gone for 4 hours," I chuckled, "But yeah, I missed you too."
Jake and I sat down on the couch. "Uncle Jakey, do you know Ben and Holly?" Tristan asked the grown man, looking up at us with sauce all over his lips. I laughed, sitting next to him on the floor.Â
I grabbed the tissue Jake handed to me from the nearby tissue box and wiped Tristan's face. "No, buddy, who are they?" Jake grinned at Tristan. "These guys! They're elves and fairies!"
"Really? That's awesome! Who's that man in the blue clothes with that white beard?" Jake asked Tristan. "He's the Wise Old Elf! He's wise, he's old and he's an elf!" Tristan said and pretended to blow a horn.Â
"Wow, that's awesome." I was watching Jake and Tristan interact with a small smile on my face. Honestly, I would love to start a family with Jake. Jake would be an amazing father. We weren't married, though; I wanted to be married before having kids.
After Tristan was done eating, I took the empty plates to the kitchen while Tristan got up and sat on Jake's lap. I could hear Tristan explaining the show to Jake, who listened patiently to humor him.Â
I chuckled and cleaned up the plates, keeping them away. I walked out after wiping my hands on the washcloth and sat next to the two boys. We changed the channel and searched for some good movies.Â
Avengers: Age of Ultron was on one channel. "This one! Captain America!" Tristan squealed, excitedly pointing at the screen. "Alright, kiddo, your call," I chuckled. We watched the movie until it was Tristan's bedtime.Â
Thankfully for Jake and I, Tristan was very sleepy by the time his bedtime rolled around. "Goodnight, baby," I cooed as I carried Tristan to his bedroom. I helped him brush his teeth and clean up before bed.Â
When I was about to put the half-asleep baby on his bed, he whined. I brought him away from the bed and he fell silent. I took him near the bed and he whined again. "No!" he sobbed. The third time, he leaked a few tears. I could wait until he was fully asleepâŚÂ
I took him back outside and Jake muted the TV. "What happened?" he asked, frowning. "Try wouldn't sleep on the bed. I'll wait until he's fully asleep," I whispered to Jake. He nodded.Â
I sat back down next to Jake and cradled Tristan in my arms. The tiny tot laid his head on my shoulder and I patted him on the back, rocking him until he was out cold. I sighed in relief but as soon as I tried to stand, Tristan whined.Â
"Oh God," I sighed. When I sat still, Tristan became quiet. I decided to hold him for a while longer, until I was sure he was fully asleep. Jake laid down on the couch, putting his head on my lap. "What am I, a pillow?"
"Yeah. You're comfortable." He smiled at me. "You know, this would be so awesome. You, me, our babyâŚ" he whispered, taking my hand. I held Tristan with one hand as Jake caressed the other one.Â
"I know, I was thinking about it. But we have to be married for that," I chuckled. "Alright, then. Y/N Y/L/N, will you marry me?" Jake asked, sitting up. My breath caught in my throat.Â
"For real?" I whispered, tearing up. "Yes, Mrs Gyllenhaal," he smiled, tears shining in his own eyes as he took out a ring box from the pocket of his jeans. I nodded gently, trying my best to not wake Tristan up.
"Wait, were you going to propose on our date tonight?"
"I was, yeah."
Jake slipped the beautiful ring on the ring finger of my left hand, leaning in to give me a kiss. "I love you, Mrs Gyllenhaal," he whispered, pulling back. "I love you too, Mr Gyllenhaal," I chuckled.Â
Jake laid back down on the couch, his head on my lap as he caressed my left hand, kissing the palm, the fingers and the ring. A few minutes later, Jake fell asleep. He had had a busy day.Â
I smiled softly as I looked at my two precious boys. "I love you two so much," I whispered to myself, kissing Tristan on the head. I stayed up, watching a movie on mute with subtitles until my sister and her husband came home.Â
"Y/N? Oh my God, thank you so much! Jake's here too, I guess you got that date after all," my sister whispered happily as they stepped into the room. Jake woke up immediately, sitting up.Â
"Hey Y/S/N, hey [Husband]," he yawned, rubbing his eyes. [Husband] took Tristan from my arms and carried him to his bedroom. "Hold up, Y/N, what's that?" my sister asked as Jake and I stood up. She was looking at my ring.Â
"Jake proposed an hour ago," I told her and she teared up, smiling broadly. "I'm so happy for you guys! Congratulations!" she grinned, throwing her arms over both of us. Jake and I chuckled.Â
"[Husband], come here!" Y/S/N called out and he walked out of Tristan's room. "Yeah?" he asked his wife. "Jake and Y/N are getting married!" she told him and he grinned too. "Congratulations!"
"Thank you so much, we should leave now," I said, hugging [Husband]. Jake hugged him too and we walked out of the house. Y/S/N and [Husband] stood at the door until Jake and I got on his bike.Â
"Bye!" I waved at them and they closed the door as Jake drove away. It was nearly midnight, but our house wasn't far from here. "We have to plan a wedding now," I whispered to Jake.
"We'll make it the best shit ever," he told me and I laughed. "I love you so much, Jake," I whispered to him, kissing his cheek as I wrapped my arms tighter around him. "I love you too, Y/N, so much."Â

Chris Wood on FatMan Beyond with Kevin Smith and Marc Bernardin. (Full interview transcript)
A MASSIVE, MASSIVE THANK YOU TO @bwaybenoist WHO HELPED ME A LOT WITH THIS. â¤â¤â¤â¤
to the anon who requested this, and for whoever wants to read this, enjoy!
__________________
Kevin: One of my favorite people in the world, man. If you're lucky enough, you get to work with people you like, and I met this kid on a set and most people on sets, you know, 'not necessarily all likable and stuff like that.
Marc: Careful.
Kevin: Yeah. (indistinct) This kid ain't just likable, he's fucking lovable, man. I was like, goddamn it, I fell in love with him the way I fell in love with Ben Affleck, where I'm like "You should be in everything! Fuckin, you should play Fletch." I still to this day think he'd be the perfect Fletch based on the Gregory McDonald books. When we got lucky enough to work on Masters of the Universe from Mattel on Netflix, I, you know, there was always a like "We could probably get a big cast for this" and stuff, so I played very few cards in terms of like "Well, here's who I think you could get and stuff like that" because Netflix, Mattel, these cats putting up the money, they should tell us who they want and stuff and Teddy who's our Netflix exec, he loves MOTU, so like casting of course with Netflix, the ability to draw talent is gonna be right up his alley. But one of the only names I put forward in the process..I was like âI worked with Chris Wood, and he is SO good, like he would be an excellent Prince Adam and He-Man as well of course, but like, can I put him on the list?â and they put him on the list, and you know, I thought that was gonna be it, âKevin made a suggestion and weâll put him in there and then it will never happen.â And he got the job, legit got the job. Mattel loved him, Netflix loved him, boom, heâs our prince Adam! So, here tonight, you got him? Here tonight, man..*Skype sound* Making a little chit-chat, thatâs the sound of joy. That means weâre gonna talk to a guest, we get to open the door and welcome to Fatman Beyond, uh, He-Man himself, ladies and gentleman, Prince Adam, I give you..Chris Wood.
Chris: Oh my goodness.
Marc: Look at that intro.
Kevin: And look at that pretty ass man, look at how pretty he is.
Chris: *Plays Jellicle Cats from CATS*
Kevin: Somebodyâs been listening to the show!
Chris: Reminiscing about..the Winter Garden Theater.
Kevin: This is actually..I was gonna say..
Chris: My first Broadway show I ever saw, Kevin!
K: Was CATS?
C: Was CATS!
K: I totally forgot as we were sitting here, going âNobodyâs gonna care about us talking about Broadway.â Thereâs one guy waiting to be on the show who was like âIâd love it if it was all--â
C: I was having the time of my life! This was like Batman, Broadway edition, I loved it.
K: Give us the full rundown of every Broadway show that youâve ever seen, and when you say Broadway, do you mean--
C: I mean, I mean Broadway.
K: You mean like seeing it on Broadway, not just live theater.
C: No man, thatâs where I got my start, that was my whole...the stage was my whole thing. Youâd have to sit here for like three hours to hear all of the shows I ever saw..
K: Are you serious? So wait you-
C: Itâs got a soft place in my heart still.
K: You uhm, I remember when I was working on Supergirl, at one point Melissa was just like: âHe was in Sweeney Todd!â and I was like âWhat?â Were you in Sweeney Todd?
C: Itâs true, yeah.
M: With Victor Garber?
C: Yeah.
K: Yeah, itâs surprising, he was in Sweeney Todd and has worked on a Victor Garber adjacent show.
C: Yeah.
K: I (was) saying before Ben Affleckâs my last card, Iâm turning to Chris Wood to make that Victor Garber connection.
C: Yeeees! Hey guys!
M: Hey man!
K: How are you sir?
C: Whatâs going on?
K: So wait, what- you were a musical theater guy.Correct?
C: That (was) my thing, man. All through college and high school and growing up, that was like-- aside from making movies on my Super8-- that was my, that was my other hobby.
K: What is uh- look, for those who donât follow very closely: Chris has acted for a long time, I met him playing Mon-El when I was directing Supergirl episodes. Of course as I said, heâs playing our He-Man. What was the vampire show that Mewes loves that you were on?
C: The Vampire Diaries, yeah, yeah.
K: The Vampire Diaries as well and stuff, uhm, and heâs a wonderful actor and gorgeous human being but-
C: Youâre always- you have the kindest intros in the world, Kevin. Youâre- I come on just blushing every time I talk to you.Â
K: Heâs wonderful (but) this is wanna lay out there: he is a fucking hell of a writer.
M: Outstanding.Â
C: Oh wow! Itâs still going!
K: And you know that like Iâm not just saying itâs a butter him up because we could totally just talk about He-Man and thatâs it but like-- Iâve read a script that he wrote that took me back to 1994, where I was like-- This is what I felt like when I saw Indie Film. It reignited a love for indie film because the film was impressionistic and wonderful and original and singular in vision and stuff..
C: And nobody will ever make it..*Laughs* All of the qualities of a terrific independent film.
K: You got- you got some pushback on the movie. âSome people like this? What?â but he wrote- didnât you write a script that went someplace legit or whatnot? Are you allowed to talk about it?
C: I did, yeah. Itâs not public yet, but weâre--
K: Thatâs not public? That wasnât in the trades or anything like that?
C: Not yet, man. Itâs still like..under the table wheeling and dealing.
K: Alright, we canât say what it is, but I can tell you right now, itâs like- itâs something that you and I (Marc) would work our Whole lives to achieve and weâve been doing- all we have is writing. And this motherfucker has everything in life and heâs about to have that as well. But well worth it, because heâs wonderful at the written word. What do you attribute that to?
C: The written word?
K: Yeah. Whereâd you- How come youâre such a good writer?
C: Well, thatâs very- Thank you first of all. Uhm, writing, I always kinda did it. I think I was like you, Kev, when I was a kid I just- no one was giving me pages to shoot or to have my friends put on plays in the garage, so I had to write my own words. So, I kind of always done it. I remember writing plays and Iâd write up thirty pages of a script when I was 13 years old and Iâd hand it out to my cousins and weâd perform it for all of our aunts and uncles and grandparents. I kind of always done it, just never been paid for it.
K: Yeah, thatâs the dream, to get paid for it at the same time. I saw when my man got married, he whipped out beautiful words as well. Like you know, where you get to like say something to your-
M: Your vows.
K: There you go. Thatâs that word, âvowsâ
C:Â âWhat do we call those *snaps fingers* those promises we make.
K: I smoked those away. *Laughs* Even his vows, were like beautiful, like incredibly well fuckin written, beautiful choice of words, look-
C: My missus..
K: I mean, yes.
C: (Blew me out) the water.
K: Who went first, was it you or her who went first?
C: She went first, thatâs why I couldnâ t-- I couldnât speak through mine.
K: Yeah, both of them got real beautiful.
C: Oh man..
K: The thing is, I knew Woody was a writer because I read his script and what not. Didnât homegirl open with âIâm not a writerâ and then dropped one of the most beautiful fucking speeches that youâve ever heard in your life? It was really great, really special for me to be there for, man. The point is this kid here writes well, the point is one day heâs gonna take my advice and write himself his own fucking lead in the movie that he should make, particularly that one that I love and make a movie, âcause heâs got all the ingredients. Like you know, like me I was like âI wanna make a movieâ but like I had to hire actors and shit like that. Well, not hire but beg them to be in it. Thank God they were. But like he could write himself a part and be that fucking part and direct himself in the part, because heâs been on enough sets so knows how the process works.
M: So what youâre saying is heâs unfair.
K: Yes, I donât want to say it in front of him and embarrass the man but yeah.
C: Iâm so sorry.
K: Um, take us into, for those watching at home uh, talk a little bit about Vampire Diaries. When did that, was that the first thing you did?
C: That was one of my early kind of like public roles, um, I had done some stuff before that, nothing really that caught on with a fan base. That was sort of the first thing I did where people got excited about a character I was doing, um and wanted more of them, so they wrote me more stuff, um, yeah that was, I guess, I started on that seven years ago? Eight years ago?
K: And what was the, did you leave? Did they kill you off gracefully? Did you leave because you were like âI donât want to do thisâ.
C: Yeah, I was a bad guy, so with like all good villains in our favourite shows, they have to meet some sort of demise or just, you know go into a spin-off *Laughs*. Itâs kind of either-or. Or theyâre Skeletor and then they just exist forever as an equal force.
K: So after, how long were you done with that show before you went and did Supergirl?
C: So I did a couple of things after that, um, I did a mini-series and I was on a limited series called âContainmentâ about a pandemic, much like what weâre living in now. A little too timely, I kind of donât recommend it at the moment, but yeah I did that and then right after that ended, thatâs when I went up to Vancouver.
K; So wait, and if I remember correctly, Containment, did Julie Plec do that? Didnât she alsoâŚ
C: Yeah, yeah, that was Julie Plec, who did Vampire Diaries. She kind of pulled me across, from that experience.
K: When youâre making it, are you like âsilly fictional world this will never happen.â.
M: âIâll never need to remember any of this.â.
C: You know what, I feel like in a way the show kind of prepared me for the quarantine because I read so much about the Spanish Flu and about outbreaks and what actually happened, so when this all started happening, I was like âguys no no no, this is realâ you know like, when people who play lawyers think theyâre lawyers? It was kind of one of those things, suddenly I thought I knew, I was like âsend me in Iâm ready guysâ.
M: Was there any Containment swag that you got to keep like âoh they sent me all these masks, I got all of these masks!â
C: I wish! I think I have some uh, dog tags and thatâs about it..
K: Alright so wait, did they come after you to come audition for Supergirl? How does that happen?
C: That was the first time in my career where I got offered something without reading for it. Which was kind of amazing. And I played hard to get for a second because I wasnât sure if it was the right coloured spandex. I was always more of a Batman guy than a Superman and then eventually it clicked and apparently, there was some part of me that knew I was going to meet my future wife and the mother of my children. *laughs* So I guess it all worked out.
K: I mean, yeah, and aside from just getting to play a hero and stuff, it gave you the rest of your life.
C: The rest of my life, which is a pretty lucky thing to get from a job, usually the job doesnât serve you that. So that was pretty fantastic.
K: And there are very few people who can walk away from the CW going âand that built the rest of my lifeâ, you know what Iâm saying?
C: *laughs* Well it does match, the network that matches my initials should promise me something like that. I think itâs somewhere in the rulebook, I donât know where.
K: I just put that together.
M: Like the Wendy's girl walks into Wendy's and is like âI will take all of your hamburgers, Iâm Wendy."
(all laugh)
K: When you, when they gave you the suit finally, which is something you know, for the run of the show was something you would look forward to and then finally they do give you the suit, looked tight. Was it as uncomfortable as it looked?
C: Oh yeah, theyâre terrible. Itâs the worst thing youâll ever wear in your life. You know, itâs like a giant onesie. A onesie is known for comfort and relaxation and too many zippers. This is as few of zippers and you can have including no accessibility to use the restroom, and you really canât move in them, it kind of squeezes your everything, if thereâs a thing that can be squeezed by the spandex. So things are going like, your elbow is going up to your shoulder and youâre not really sure why. You know that youâre not controlling it. Uh, itâs an odd experience, but um, Iâll tell you what, those lunch breaks were always very, it was like a great release to unzip the spandex and just lay on the couch.*laughs*
K: Tell them what itâs like to be up on the harness thing man, when you have to do flying and shit, on the green screens.
C: The flying is fun, thatâs one of the really, thatâs when you feel like youâre on the trampoline in your backyard as a kid fighting the invisible villains. Itâs literally the same thing, except someone is doing the jumping for you with a rope. But thatâs when you get to play and feel like a kid. Those are my favourite, the big action sequences. Theyâre a bear to shoot because they take days to shoot two minutes, as you know. But when youâre actually doing the thing, itâs a great time.
K: How long before you think, because I know it ainât happening now, how many years from now do you think itâll be before you and Melissa are like âletâs watch the episodes and see if we can spot the chemistry, and see if I can see myself falling in love and blah blah blah.â Do you think youâll ever get there?
C: You know, I think itâs probably all over every second of every frame *laughs*. You could probably just uh, start at the beginning and then the first second on-screen probably in some way, shape or form go âoh there it is, thereâs the first bits of itâ.
K: I believe that, Mr. Broadway.
C: Mr Broadway!!
K: Can I tell him [Marc] a quick Broadway story? I actually went to a Broadway show, where I got to sit next to Mr Chris Wood.
M: Did you now?
C: Oh man, yeah you did.
K: Itâs beautiful. So we go see Beautiful, is the show, the Carole King musical.
C: It was also beautiful.
K: It was beautiful, branded and in my heart. The lead of the show that night is of particular interest to both me and Mr Wood, him a lot more. Melissa Benoist, "rhymes with moist", I learned that from Chris Wood.
M: That sounds awfully romantic.
C: He texts me late one evening..
K I used to say Ben-o-ist all the time, I donât know why.
C: And then I shot you a text I was like âYou know itâs Benoist like moist, like a chocolate, decadent chocolate cakeâ.
M: That was the most Christopher Walken thing Iâve ever heard: âItâs Benoist like moistâ.
K: âAnd delicious like a chocolate cakeâ. Weâre watching Beautiful and weâre watching Melissa open, this is the debut, the first opening night of the show, and Chris is there um, a bunch of people that love Melissa were there. Fucking Lynda Carter was there, Wonder Woman was there to watch Supergirl, how awesome is that? The curtain opens and it opens with Melissa, sheâs up top like bang, singing, right at the top of the show and Iâm sitting right next to Chris Wood who is crying. Crying those joyful tears of seeing his lady loveâs dream come true. She always wanted, is that her first Broadway performance?
C: It was, first and last. *laughs*
K: *jokingly* Sheâs not going to do it again?
C: No, no, no, no, no Iâm just kidding, no it was her first. Life long dream.
K: She was like, sheâs like Chris, sheâs a theatre kid. A couple of musical kids and stuff, drama kids.
C: You can say nerds, itâs okay.
K: Drama nerds, the idea of Broadway, that was the goal, it wasnât like âone day Iâm gonna be Supergirlâ, that was the surprise and the delight where she met the love of her life and stuff, but the dream was Broadway and her dream came true and as you know, if the curtains open and Melissa was crying, of course, people forgive it because theyâre like âOh look at her dreams coming trueâ the fact he was bawling, I was like "oh my God, sheâs got the right guy." All of the joy he felt for her joy, as she was concentrating on doing the very thing that she dreamed about doing, performing, so she canât just stop the show and be like âcan you fucking believe this?â which is how she feels inside, heâs expressing for her just by emotional, he was crying, it was one of the most beautiful things in the world.
C: Iâm not ashamed of it.
K: No!
M: Nor should you be.
K: It was so fucking wonderful so supportive but he is a- point of the story, he is such a Broadway kid.
C: You could say Iâm a Jellicle kid.
K: Somebody could explain that.
M: I too was sitting next to Chris Wood when he was crying, but it was in New Orleans, in a waiting room to shoot a scene for Reebot, and he's like "Listen, I gotta fly back to Vancouver and my flight is like twenty minutes from now and we haven't shot yet, and it's 4 AM and I'm a little bit daffy in the brain.
K: *Laughs* It's true.
C: Yeah, we were drinking- we were on coffee number four, at like 5 AM, and I looked at my watch and I went "Oh!! My flight's at 6:30." *Laughs*
M: "Anytime you're ready, Kev!"
C: But we got it done.
K: The boys were so sweet, they came out uhm- Chris and Jesse Rath came out and they're in Jay and Silent Bob Reboot during Chronicon, if you haven't seen it on Amazon Prime.
C: With the most extensive and detailed backstory that any limited amount of screentime has ever had in the history of film. There's a story in those eyes, if you look closely.
K: Oh my God, he's working. But he's sitting next to Mr. Marc Bernardin.
M: Yes.
K: Throughout the night, and it was- we ran up against- what time do we finally shoot you guys?
C: I don't even remember.
M: It must've been like 5:15 or something like that.
K: And then rush them to the airport so they could get on (a) plane and get back to Vancouver, correct?
C: That's right, I had to get back to work.
K: Such a special-
C: But it was such a blast, though. And thank you again for letting us come out and play. That was such a trip.
K: It just means that uh, one day your kids are gonna watch that movie and be like "They're both in this terrible movie? Who are Jay and Silent Bob? Was this before you guys met on Supergirl? Why would you be in a movie like this?"
C: *Laughs*
K: Let's talk He-Man. What-- Had you done voice work prior to He-Man?
C: So, when I was broke, living in New York, in between babysitting for three boys on the Upper West Side to make cash so I could support my acting aspirations, I bought a little USB microphone and I joined this- I can't even remember the name of the site. It was some like, some freelance voiceover site, where you join and you can record audio samples and submit auditions and that was the only voice work I had done. I would- I was making like 100 bucks here and there, doing a voiceover for a animated-- "Hey kids, don't run in the cafeteria!" Like a school PSA, or I did some military PSA teaching soldiers etiquette in the barracks and-- so strange. But that was all I had done.
K: Tell'em about how- what acting in front of a microphone is like, 'cause it is acting-
C: Oh yeah.
K: -And in some ways, it's way more acting than one can do on a camera, on a camera one can be subtle, you can't be subtle behind a microphone. You gotta communicate emotion just with the voice, tell 'em about it.
C: You know it's so funny, I actually would describe voice acting as incredibly physical work, whereas camera acting it's all- you know, it's what you're feeling, it's..they say it's through your eyes, which actually means they're seeing through your eyes, through your soul, right? If you're feeling something you'll see it. But for voice acting, we don't see anything, it's all voice, so you really have to take the feeling and elevate it, and sometimes it helps to physically express it, so people sweat in the booth and they, you know, they grit their teeth and they stomp into the ground, and really, you have to really dig in, to grab the emotion and kinda amplify it, otherwise *monotone voice* you're just kinda talking like you do on film and nothing's really happening, and no one cares. Which is sort of what American acting is a lot of the time, we kinda just try not to seem like we're interesting and care about anything. *Laughs*
K: Is that the secret to acting? Did you just let it-- Is that all acting or just CW acting? What kinda acting are we talking about?
C: I'm actually doing a master class series on early '20s acting and basically, the first lesson is to speak as monotone and enunciate as little as possible.
K: Fucking worked out, you married Supergirl for heaven's sakes.
C: Listen-
K: Mumble away, kids! That's what your future looks like if you can mumble your way through a performance.
C: Mumble core.
M: So what you're saying is, voice acting then is very much like theater acting? Where like you've gotta play to the back row, right? Like you can't see that person's eye from a hundred feet away.
C: This guy!
K: Right? This fucking guy, he made-
C: You've found a way to bring it back to CATS! Wow!
K: Thank you, fucking excellent job, now there's a writer. Marc Bernardin is a writer.
M: *singing* Midnight and the kitties are sleeping..
K: Yes, your theater training really comes in handy in that shit, I never fucking put that together!
C: Yeah! Because you learn how to take a truthful feeling and amplify it, that's what the best stage acting is, right? An emotion that an actor is feeling that can reach the back of the house and, with voice acting is that same sort of thing, but your relationship is with the microphone uhm, and it needs to go through the microphone and then into the character and then the audience gets to it. So it's a whole-- There's a learning curve, I feel like it takes a second. Hopefully we got it right.
K: Now you're way younger than us, so I don't know if like- was He-Man in your wheelhouse growing up? Or that was before you?
C: He-Man, yeah, He-Man was on uh-- we didn't have cable when I was a kid, 'cause we didn't have the money for it. So I was watching, they were rerunning it on-- I'm trying to think what network it would've been. I can't even think of the names of what they were back then, but they were running- it was the rerun after the original series had aired. 'Cause I would watch that and I would watch X-Men, those are my cartoons.
M: Where'd you grew up, in New York?
C: In Ohio. Yeah, Dublin, Ohio, home of Wendy's, yeah.
K: That's true, that's where Wendy's begins, is in Ohio!
C: Yeah and there's a callback to Wendy! So..
M: This guy!
K: There's a writer, there's a writer! *points at both Marc and Chris*
M: High five!
K: What uh-- you know, we gotta be very careful of course, when we talk about MOTU, all of us are NDA'd up the A-H. You gotta play two different characters, what was that like?
C: That was one of the fun aspects of Prince Adam slash He-Man. It's finding these very different placements for the same person, right? So it has to feel like the same character but that, their emotional states are- Prince Adam is sort of in a different place: he's covering, he's deflecting, he's more fun and goofy..And then He-Man we have to drop the truth of his core mission, you know, to save the world, so..I mean, it starts with registers, right? That was the easy part. Prince Adam is supposed to be full of youth so he's a little higher and a little more excited, and then He-Man, *lower voice* go down and be more heroic, down in the basement and use his big fighty-fight voice.
K: It's pretty awesome, like you join a tradition of storytelling in which performers get to be two people, like you know, whoever plays Batman gets to do Bruce Wayne, and then they get to do the Dark Knight, whoever plays Superman gets to do Clark Kent and then they get to do the Man of Steel, so you get to do Prince Adam and then you also get to be his heroic alter ego, man.
C: Right.
K: It's a wonderful fraternity that you join.
C: Although I hear I'm in deep trouble, because the internet has found out that I'm not bulking up--
M: You're not doing the work?
C: --for my performance.
K: Somebody on Twitter was just like "Chris Wood, he's not big enough to play He-Man!" and they meant in size!
M: "Have you seen his thighs? His thighs are not nearly there!"
K: "He skips leg day all the time" but oh my God--
C: You're right! "He can't possibly play the character!"
K: Yeah I had to point out, I was like "I better get in touch with Netflix and see if they'll send Chris some steroids and a fucking peloton so he could do the the voice in an animated series."
M: Also, Chris is not from another planet. That's also an issue. Could you not have cast an indigenous actor to play somebody from Eternia?
K: Who was it tweeted, somebody tweeted something about Griffin Newman, they were like "Oh, tell Griffin we gotta cut his fucking legs off". Maybe it was there, texted that, tweeted that. What uh, now that you've voice acted and led an animated series: is it something that you see yourself doing again? I mean, of course, hopefully we all get to do this one again, but other stuff. You got like one of them Disney voices and you can sing like a motherfucker, man.
C: Oh man, I would love to do Disney too. Let's uh, put that in the bucket list. I honestly, I get a real kick out of it, it's..like you said you can really go to a larger-than-life place, and it all, it always has to come from, you know, something sincere, that sense of play has to be grounded in something. You just kind of yell and scream, I think people can hear that..so there's a challenge to it, but it's also super rewarding because you get to, you know, play characters that fly on cats that are oversized and wear armor and..
M: Jellicle cats?
K: None of that Jellicle shit in our show, Marc! Battle cats!
M: What kind of Jellicle are you? I'm a cringer cat!
K:*jokingly* Somebody point a sword at me, quick. Yeah man, it's a..
C: It's a long life with He-Man too, 'cause this, I mean the character is so fun and obviously..I had the action figures when I was a kid and those toys..I hope to introduce my son to Masters of the Universe via the action figures, 'cause I mean they're so weird! They really went there-- have you seen that special that they do on the toys on the Netflix show?
K: Oh yeah, the toy, the wonderful-
M: The Toys That Made Us.
K: -The Toys That Made Us.
C: Yeah, yeah The Toys That Made Us.
K: Their He-Man episode is unbelievably wonderful.
C: Oh, it's great! And it just shows you- you know they were thinking "what weird crap would a little boy like, put together on a toy?" And then they end up with these wild names, and these characters who do insane things and it's part of why it's so fun. And the fact that they found a way to build a story around those bizarre toys, that was also compelling.
K: Thank God they did--
C: 30 years later, it's amazing.
K: Thank God they did, we all have fuckin jobs, all three of us.
C: *laughs* You're right.
K: Wait so before we let you go, it occurs to me that Melissa just had her episode air of Supergirl, that she directed.
C: Directorial debut!
K: That's right! Did you- Did the Wood-Benoists or Benoist-Woods- did you guys like kick back and watch it together?
C: You know, we didn't because *laughs* we don't have cable. So, no!
K: Don't let CW hear that, or perhaps do and they'll pay for cable! Why don't you have cable? Where are you quarantining?
C: We're in California, so we're home, but we're usually not home.
K: Right! Oh my gosh, that's right!
C: As a fortunate actor you move to California to never be there. I was shooting in New York and she was shooting in Vancouver when this all started and we were lucky to get home quickly but uh, but yeah I mean, we don't spend that much time in our house, so we don't have cable!
K: Tell 'em why you were in New York. Was it the- that's been announced, right?
C: Yeah, yeah for Thirtysomething, Thirtysomethingelse which is an ABC show that hopefully, knock on me, hopefully ends up going when we get out of this situation with Covid. Yeah, it's a reboot of Thirtysomething, another 80s classic.
K: Oh my God, that's-- you'll have two, you'll have fuckin MOTU and Thirtysomething. I watched Thirtysomething in real time when I was a kid, I loved that show, my mom watched it so I watched it with her and stuff, so I know all about Hope and Michael. I saw that they were redoing the show and I saw that fucking Chris was involved and I was like "What?!", and I texted him "Are you fucking for real?" and shit, and you're playing Hope and Michael's- did they announce that? I don't know
C: Yeah, yeah, I'm their son, yeah.
K: So he's tied in-
M: He's a legacy character!

They were in Germany when Peter met the Black Widow for the first time. He couldn't  take his eyes off of her. Because she was the most  beautiful thing he ever seen. Well, sure he had met pretty girls in his school. But no one could be compared to the Black Widow. She was the definition of beauty. When he saw her fighting,  moving with precise and impressive skills, with such flexibility and tiny body, that made him respect her so much. He was  flexible but not as much as her. He wondered who she was and what she has been through in her life to make her fight like that. He had a crush on her. Well, every guy in his school had a crush on her. He would never be able to talk to her even if he  tried to. He was sure that no words would come out of his mouth. He only knew her from the comic books and gossip column in  the online tabloid.
One day he came back from school â it was after he had fought Vulture, a week ago. He thought he was hallucinating when he saw the blonde woman wearing  tight pants and a black jacket. She was staring at him and smirking while he was sitting on his bed. No words came out of his mouth.
âWell. We met before.â She said with a tiny smirk on her perfect lips.
âYou are⌠you are⌠well you...â Peter struggled to find his words.
âI'm Natasha.â She said while coming closer to him.
âWell. You are the Black Widow.â He looked down at his feet. trying not to look at her eyes.
âYes. Remember me, Peter?â She came close to him again.
âYes. Well⌠what are doing here? And how did you get in here?â Peter was still shaking.
âWell, I donât need a door to get in here. That's my style. Besides, you can climb out of your roomâs window. and So I can do the same.â Natasha said while looking around.
âThatâs awesome. I mean, your skills are pretty impressive., Miss Romanoff. Well, I'm sorry about my room, it is a little bit⌠um⌠Itâs a mess.â Peter picked up his comic book and his calculus textbook on the floor and put them on his bed, very quickly. âDo you need anything, coffee? Orange juice?â Peter asked.
âNo., I'm fine. Thank you for asking. Getting coffee is not the reason I'm here. Come here and sit down. Don't be afraid of me. I wonât bite.â Natasha said pointing at his computer chair.
Peter sat down on the chair.
Then she explained, âI need you Peter. The Avengers need you.â
Peter got so excited when he heard the word âAvengersâ
âYes I'm ready! I will do anything you ask me. Save people and  whatever the mission is.â Peter was almost jumping on his seat.
âWell, we do have a mission for you. We need you to go back to class.â Â Natasha said.
âWhat? Go to class? But I go there every day.â Peter said.
âItâs not your regular class in high school, Peter. It is an extra class in Virginia University.â Natasha said as she held her smartphone and showed him some news article. âThis is Professor McDonald, he teaches Biology at Virginia University. We believe he is creating a serum that could make humans grew bigger and become super strong. And he is on Hydraâs radar. We believe Hydra is paying him to create this serum to make their agents super strong. Can you imagine what if they could accomplish? Super strong bad guys? And itâs possible that he will sell it to the market.â Natasha said as she was scrolling her phone.
âI'm not going to let that happen. What if they sell it to the market? Bullies will get worse.â Peter stood up from his chair. speaking passionately.  since  bullies were a big issue for him, âI'm going to take him down now.â
âNo., no Calm down, little boy. We have a plan. Your job is to follow our plan.â Natasha said as if she almost panicked when she saw Peter so determined. Sheâve never seen that spirit in any Avengers before.
âOur? You mean you have a team?â Peter calmed down a little.
âJust me and Cap. Well, Rogers.â She forgot that Steve didn't allow anyone to call him Captain anymore. âHeâd hate if anyone screwed up his plan. And we can't compromise working with anyone who wants to work alone.â
âWoahâŚ, woah, woah... You mean Captain America? That is awesome! Thank you for giving me a chance, Miss Romanoff. It will be an honour to work with you and Cap.â Peter slightly jumped and squeaked. Natasha thought it was very cute.
âWell, this was easier than I thought. What I want you to do is to attend his class and investigate every detail. You will report to me.â
âWait. When will I go?â
âTonight.â
âWhat about Aunt May?â
âJust tell her you will attend an extra class. And don't worry about her, I will handle her.â
It turned out that Natashaâs skill to influence people was majestic. She told May that she was his tuition teacher. And gave her a free resort voucher to the Thailand Hotel. So Aunt May would will be absent from home for 3 days. Thankfully she had not read the news about the Black Widow. May had no idea who Natasha was.
On that night, Captain arrived. Peter saluted him as soon as he saw him. Steve almost had a heart attack. Natasha almost laughed when she saw his reaction. Nobody saluted him before, not after he had served his country. Besides, he was is not a Captain anymore.
âCaptain...Itâs an honour to meet you..Again. I'm sorry I took  you down in the airport. And I'm sorry for stealing your shield. I want you to know that you still have my respect Sir. You inspired me to be hero, and you still is my hero. No matter what the government says.â Peter spoke with his shaky voice.
âI know. I know. Thank you, and it is nice to meet you, Peter. Well, weâve never introduced properly before.â Steve tried to shake his hands. And Peter was more than eager to do it. âJust call me Steve. And not Captain anymore. As you can see  I'm changed. A Captain isn't suppose to have a beard. Not in the military.â He said surprised by  how strong Peterâs handshake was.
âWell, youâll always be Captain America for me.â
Steve exchanged  a look with Natasha. And she just smirked at him. âSo, well, are you ready for your mission?â
âYes. Anytime.â
Natasha handed him a small brooch and explained that it was actually a microphone, and a pair of glasses that actually had a hidden camera.
âRemember, do not take action unless we ask you to. Don't do anything more than ordinary. Just show interest in his lecture and ask questions. But donât do too much,â Natasha warned warning him.
âWeâll always be standing by you . If you need back up. Understood?â Steve said.
âYes Sir! But.. can I bring my suit?â Peter asked as he put his backpack  on his shoulder.
âYes. But don't use it.â Steve said.
Steve and Natasha watched the camera while sitting on Peter's bed. The class is two hour. And nothing happen. Peter writes down everything the professor said. Natasha passes out, and she lean her head on his shoulder. Off course Steve had been close to Nat before. But this time, she is very close. And no one is around. He touch her hair, her new hair, her smells turned him on. He didn't care red or blonde he loves her hair. He kisses her hair, and slowly moves her head and legs so she lay on the bed comfortably. He almost falls on her body and Natasha body turned so her head is close to his Their lips almost touch each other. It takes him a few second to not to kiss her mouth. Until the bedroom door is open. Peter standing there awkwardly
âPeter! Oh you back. Sorry. Just she is tired. Just let her sleep for a whileâ Steve almost jumped when he sees Peter.
âOh. Do you need a time for privacy?â Peter said awkwardly
Steve face turn red. âNo. No we fine. Letâs talk outside.â Steve said as he walks to out to living room.
Peter told him he put his little spidey trackers, so they can track him everywhere The Professor go. He also asked about the DNA formula in Professor McDonald research. But refuse to share it. And he thought that's odd. He also observed an adult men sitting behind the class suspiciously. Tomorrow he had a lab class so he promises to get more information.
Peter was surprised to found out that Steve Rogers not only interested on the mission he also asking who he was, about his parents, his aunt May and his uncle Ben. And Peter learned that who is Steve Rogers before and find the similarities between them. Both of them lost their parents and living in a poor condition. He never thought that Steve is very care and emotionally deep person. He only saw him as Captain America, mean old men with and strict with rules. He also asked about Natasha.
âShe had been through a lot of things in her life. But she is very secretive. I knows her for years, I still don't know who she is. But she is the good person and I won't be adapt to this new world, if not because of her. It makes me think sometimes; despite it was painful to lose your life. But she makes it worth. Maybe she is the reason I wake up again in this new century. I won't regret any single thingâ Steve said with a lot of emotion in his eyes.
Peter thinks it was powerful. The love between them is powerful that become the real reason for them to woke up and feels bless to be alive.
Tomorrow Natasha wakes up and realizes it was seven in the morning. She canât find Steve in this room. She looks around and found Steve sleeping on the couch. She stares at him. He is very handsome young man. She always thinks of that every time she stares at him. But she looks around to find Peter and realized that he must be at school. She looks again his living room and found a family picture. She takes as shower and sitting on Peter's bed to dry her hair. And then she sees something look like a comic book with bright yellow cover just below a Peter's pillow. She picks up and looks at it. It was title with Captain America and Black Widow: The Soldier and the Spy A love Story
She found it's funny. Off course she knows about The Avengers comic book. But she never had seen this one. It looks like it was published on 70s. She open and read it.
Steve and Natalia met during a world war 2 where she was send to kills him. But she let him go. And that cause the red room torture her, until she was safe by Steve Rogers. But not after that Steve was kills during a fight with The Red Skull. And he wakes up again in the new century and met Natalia who now known as Natasha.
âYou are a very handsome young man Steve Rogers....And for the first time, perhaps I'm allowing myself to see that, to see you as someone other than icon called Captainâ
This is bullshit.
âMay I offer my threat?â
âThat's mighty nice of you Tashaâ
âAssuming of course that Jennifer does not want you all to herselfâ
There is no where I'm saying that. They make me pathetic fan girls.
âPlease stop me Steve. Take me with you.â Right before she left the grave yard.
Shit
âI'm not good enough for you. You deserve everything Rogers. Even that dream not included meâ
âBruce is just a distraction. The truth is I'm in love with you.â
Fuck! Â
âNat?â Steve stands on the door.
âYeah?â Natasha immediately fixes her face
âAre you alright? I heard you cursed or something.â
âNothing, just angry with my hair, bad hair dayâ Natasha said as she hiding the comic behind her body.
âWell. I'm asking if you want some breakfast. I 'm going to buy sandwich.â
âSure. Coolâ
________________________________________________________________
Later Peter got back from school and Steve Rogers out to buy a dinner for them.
âYou have to lie to get what you want Peter.â Natasha talk to him
âI don't know how lieâ Peter said
âReally? You had been lying about your identity for year now.â
âThat is my biggest secret. I'm did it for Mayâ
âIf it for saving life. Are you going to do it?â
âBut I'm not sure if I convincing enoughâ
âWell Peter, watch what I'm doing carefullyâ Natasha went to refrigerator and get 2 big green chilli.
She eats the chilli in front of Peter like nothing. Peter eyes widen.
âWhat? Is not that spicy right?â Peter gets up and takes another green chilli from refrigerator. And eat it. Second later he coughed, his tongue burning like fire. His stomach feels hot too. Natasha picks plain water and gives it to him. After a few minutes and he drink a lot of water and he managed to ask Natasha.
âI donât understand. How you do that?â Peter asking, he almost cries.
âLying, even you hurt, you pretend it wasn't. If they find you lying, give some truth in it and make it up with lies. But do not lie to people care about you except if it neededâ Natasha take a plain water and start to drink it.
Later, Natasha and Peter prepare the dinner. Peter pours some orange juice.
âSteve will not drink that. The way you arrange the plate is wrong too. Steve will not like it. And put plain water near his plate.â Natasha said as she put salad in the bowl
Peter surprise how close they are. The little detail remind him to Michelle
âNatasha how long have you and Steve been together?â Peter asking innocently
âWe are not together. We are partner.â
âBut he really cares about you.â
âBecause he is gentlemanâ
âBut not like that. He checked every hour to see if you slept well or not.â
Natasha surprise, she wonder if he did checked her every night.
âSteve really cares about me. But he cares about everyone in his team too.â
âI guess. You know, I have this girl, she was very weird. She did not talk to anybody, she did not have any friend. She noticed every single detail about me. I don't know how and why. She knew I quited band, she knows where I'm going after school. She draw meâ Peter tells his story
âShe likes youâ Natasha chuckle
âNo, she can't be. Nobody likes me. I'm a nerd, I did not have many friends, I'm a lonerâ Peter can't see anything special in him
âShe likes you because you very similar to her. Girl won't pay attention so much to a guy, unless she had a crush on himâ Natasha smile. And see Peter face got red.
âSo, you like him too right? Â Because you pay attention so much about himâ
âNo, me and Rogers is a different storyâ
âI didn't say Captain Rogersâ
Damn Peter, you got me.
âPeter as you grown up, you will see. When two people was in love each other started to yell about why she did not reply texting, yell about why he going back late. Why you put a cinnamon in steak. They are fighting about every small thing. Being in love is easy, but being in relationship is the hardest.â Natasha tries to hide her blush on her face
âI know, I seen my parents, and Aunt May and Uncle Benâ Peter said, as he face looks sad
Steve Rogers arrives with their dinner. As they eating dinner, they talk about their plan.
________________________________________________________________
Peter get ready, and sees Natasha in front of door. Dress up as like a kindergarten teacher.
âToday I'm going to take you the classâ
Natasha was very good at acting, she pretended to be his aunt. Professor McDonald didn`t expect anything. Natasha even asked, if he can give extra lesson to her âNephewâ. He said yes of course.
Peter said Professor wanted him to go his house tomorrow.
That night all three of them watched the spidey tracker, to see where Professor goes. Peter observed Steve and Natasha obviously flirting with each other. Steve will get a coffee every hour, and asked if she want to sleeps. And Natasha will bring him his favourite snack. He thinks they are very cute.
âAre you guys dating?â Peter said
âNoâ Both of them says at the same time.
âThere was a gossip about you two in Hollywood tabloids. Many people ship you two.â
âWhat is ship means is it like a ship?â Steve ask because he so confuse.
âPlease Roger's; you did not know what that is?â Natasha rolles her eyes
âShip is support or has a particular interest in a romantic pairing between two characters in fictional series.â Peter said as he Google from his phone.
âIs that why you have a comic book about Captain and Black Widow? You ship us?â Natasha asks, as she lifts her eyebrows.
âWhat? Come on all boys reading comic.â Peter defends himself, as his start blushing.
âWhat is that comic about? They did comic about us?â Steve knows about comics, they make Captain America comic since the world war two.
âNothing, Rogers, just normal comic book about us take down hydraâ Natasha said as she signal to Peter, to not let Steve find out.
_______________________________________________________________
That night Steve is the only one was awake. He try to find the comic book Natasha talking about. He shouldn't bother, but he knew Peter and Natasha hid something.
As tomorrow, Peter going to Professor McDonald`s private class. Natasha convinced him to showed them his lab. And he showed them without suspect anything.
Steve knew something is wrong. Natasha should give a signal, a text or a secret code of something. But he did not receive anything. He anxiously waits in the car behind Professor McDonald house. He just about to breaking the house, he saw four large black hummer, arrived in front of the door.
âCaptain? Long time no seeâ As a man in black with trench coat approach him outside of the car.
âI'm surprised to find you here Capâ The man said
âI think I should be the one who more surprise. Because I just saw a man comes back from deathâ Steve said. He very disappointed as he sees Phil Coulson still alive.
âI'm dying, but they found a way to make me alive again.â Phil
âSo your death is just some kind of joke to us?â Steve said sarcastically
âYou guys need a push. But I'm kind of proud of what I'm doing. If I'm not dead, there is no Avengers. More people will dieâ Phil said as usual, he did not show his emotion.
âI will deal with you later. I need to see what's going on in thereâ Steve said as he clearly angry and push Phil away
âCap, you need to calm down. Nothing is going on. Professor McDonald worked for us.â Phil said as he tries to stop him
âWhat? S.H.I.E.L.D knows about this? S.H.I.E.L.D or whatever you call yourself. The serum is not going to anywhere. Nobody will get it, not even youâ Steve as his start to shows his anger. He tired of this bullshit. He breaks the door. And he sees no one around. Â Phil gives a signal to S.T.R.I.K.E team to hold their weapon.
âNatasha? Natasha!!â
Then he heard something big coming from the basement. He was hiding and ready to attack. He saw a giant red foot. Then he look up and
âHulk?â Steve is in shock.
He is hulk but not a hulk, a red hulk. Then everybody scream and said what the fuck is that?? The S.T.R.I.K.E team start to shooting at him that caused the red hulk angry. Steve distracted him, tried getting him to paid attention to him. Steve successfully avoided his punches. And stopped hulk fist with his hand. And then he saw a spider web cover hulk face. He knew it, Spiderman was there.
Steve punched hulk abs and hulk very angry. Hulk cannot see anything and tries to remove the web on his eyes but failed. Then Peter uses his web to tie the hulk feet just like he did to Giant Man in Germany. And gave the signal for Steve to attack. Steve jumped as high as he can and punch the red hulk face and as hard as he can. Then the hulk felt down and fainted.
âPeter! Where is Nat?â Steve asking worriedly
âShe was at the basementâ Then Peter realized basement is not basement anymore. Is just a piece of concrete now?
âNat! Natasha!! Natasha!!!â Steve screams her name and removed the heavy piece of rubble with his hand. He is much panicked. Â Then the hulk woke up again and punched Peter send him flying across the yard. Steve looked back and in ready to fight again. But he heard a very familiar voice.
âProfessor McDonald. Please look at her. She is your daughter. She knows you and believes you. You know her don't you?â Natasha walks closer to red hulk with a little girl.
âDaddy!â The little girl starts to cry.
âStop this. You are a good man Professor. At least in your daughter eyesâ Natasha said as she holds the little girl shoulder. Then red hulk slowly turn to human and pass out. The little girl runs to her dad.
Steve was very relieved to see Natasha. And jumped to hug her tightly. Natasha was surprised by his reaction.
âI'm fine Steve.â Natasha looks fine.
âDon't ever do that again. I can't lose you Natâ Steve said as he looking at her eyes.
âSo you are very worried huh?â Natasha teasing him
âOf course. But what you just did was amazing Nat.â
âDid what?â
âThe hulk weakness is his daughter. Even when he turned into a monster, he stills himself inside his heart. You did without a fight and without blood. That's amazing Nat.â Steve said as he holds her face.
âAre you really flirting Steve?â Natasha smirks at him.
âHello? I'm bleeding here!â Peter yells to get their attention. They almost forgot about Peter.
âAgent Romanoff, we haven't seen each other for a long timeâ Phil approach them. Steve grabs his collar and lifts him like his weight is nothing.
âSteve! Put him down!â Natasha yells at him.
âNone of this happen if not because of S.H.I.E.L.D. Hulk almost kill you and the 15 year old boy!â Steve said angrily
âI know. Just put him down ok.â Natasha persuade him
Steve releases him. Steve thought Natasha about to help Phil. But Natasha punched his face with one movement. And Phil passes out.
The mystery location Steve found in the tracker was S.H.I.E.L.D based where they cooperate to do research. S.H.I.E.L.D needed the serum to make Hulk as a replace the green Hulk that been missing two years ago. They want the serum back but Natasha steal it while Agent Coulson busily talking to Peter Parker. Natasha and Steve threw the serum in river. Natasha said Professor McDonald get panicked when his wife was kidnapped by mafia who wanted the the serum. So he injected himself with the serum. But S.H.I.E.L.D helped to get his wife back.
Steve and Natasha send Peter back to his home. Is time to say goodbye.
âYou did a very good work there Peter. I'm was surprise when you try to protect me, or else Hulk will smash me to the ground. So thank you Peterâ Natasha said as she kiss him on the cheek.
âTake care of your Aunt May. Finish school, and continue helping people in need. It was nice to work with you Peterâ Steve said as he hugs the teen. Peter was shocked at that. Suddenly he felt so sad to see them go. They are like his parents now. So he hugs both of them.
âThank you for everything Captain Rogers and Miss Romanoff. I won't forget all the advice you gave me.â He looks up to both of them. They was his idol and his new family.
âYou can ask anything Peter. Just give us a call.â Natasha said as she touch his face
âGood luck for you two, my parents had a fight every day; my dad regrets it after she passes away. He regrets that he never told her, that he loved her. So I hope you guys will a find a way, before itâs too late.â Peter said genuinely, he really hoped they will confess their love.
âThank you Peter, but I'm taking this comic book with meâ Steve smirk as he show him the comic book in his hand. Peter and Natasha in shocked that he found the comic apparently.
________________________________________________________________
âThat's is very good advice. I learn something from him as wellâ Steve talks as his driving to get out of the town
âHe is very young and naive, I'm surprise for how mature he wasâ Natasha said as she looking at the window.
âSo why don't we follow his advice?â Steve said as suddenly stop and parks his car beside the bridge. They watch the sunset, the view is stunning
âWhat are you doing Steve?â Natasha said as Steve takes her hand to the bridge to see the river.
âNatasha, I read the comic, I don't know how they found it, how they know about our story. But I want to say the way they described me in the comic book was true. I was stubborn and also an idiot not sees that you and me.â Before Steve can finish his words. Natasha pulls him for a kiss. Natasha laughed to see his reaction. She been with him all this time, as his best friend, helping each other in need, believe in each other no matter what happen, helping him to cope with this new world, she with him at the lowest point in his life, right now even he is a war criminal. So he cannot stop his feelings anymore. Because if he didn't say now, he probably will never ever can tell her.
âI love you Tashaâ Natasha shocked at his confession, because she never though he will say the words very quickly. But she shut it down immediately as Steve kissed her passionately.
Later, Steve and Natasha heading to their secret honeymoon. Â

Books, Part 1: Family
    Books and stories have been a major part of my life from a young age, as I was brought up in a Christian home where Bible reading together was mandatory, where personal Bible reading was encouraged and where reading other books together as a family was the main way thing we did when we were all together. For a lot of my home schooled years, my mom left our reading up to us, trusting our environment at home would help us make good decisions in what we read. TV was not a major recreational activity, though that took a nose dive once all of us got our own devices and we no longer had to worry about not being able to get channels on our often crippled television sets, as YouTube and Netflix became the main way people watched TV-like visual media.
    Books were different. My Dad and my oldest brother, Peter, read George McDonald and C.S. Lewis to me. Although TV was not a huge part of my growing up, audio was and adaptations, whether abridged, dramatized, or original, of books and stories, broadened my scope. My sister loved the BBN Radio readings of books, Christian Classics, and if she missed the afternoon broadcasting, I would end up listening to it, not infrequently, at 10 Oâclock at night, when I was trying to sleep.
    I have heard the stories of Elsie Dinsmore, The Cat of Bubastis, Ben Hurr, Back of the North Wind, and Oliver Twist through audio, but, like I said, I loved having someone read to me as well. I insisted my mom read me the Mandie books, until she insisted she simply could NOT do Lisaâs southern accent anymore. I knew Narnia through film not originally from the Disney, but from the BBC adaptations (whose version of the Voyage of the Dawn Treader is still simply fantastic), but I attribute my discovery of the books to my oldest brother.
    In our three story house, Peter lived on the 3rd floor, which was also the walk up attic, and I would go upstairs to his room to play. There was one book we both loved, even though he was in his teens by this point, about two bunnies who go to an island on a school field trip, get separated from their group, find a tunnel, and also tremendous treasures, all the while guided by a wise heron (who wore spectacles.) Peter also read me The Horse and His Boy, which I would later read to my little brother, The Princess and the Goblins, The Princess and Curtie, an abridged version of Sir Gibbie, and parts of Lewis Carolâs Through the Looking Glass.
    Something would be greatly amiss if I did not say anything about my dadâs reading to me and my family. My dad can read beautifully, and our favorite for him to read to us was Narnia. We had a weird tradition of him reading the Swiss Family Robinson every Christmas (or at least starting it) which is a book of a man and his wife and sons who get stranded on an imaginary island. Eventually, we switched to reading Uncle Peter by George McDonald, or The Best Christmas Pageant Ever for Christmas time instead- and both of these last two are a whole lot shorter than Swiss.
    When I look back at this post, I notice two things: 1) it looks like I am just rambling, which may be true, and 2) this is only the backdrop to how books affected my life. This is just parts of childhood, not including the more mature processing of books and stories, that would affected my life as I got older. This is why this is only âPart 1â. For me, my journey with books started with my family.

Red Dawn Final Chapter (SPN AU)
Title: Red Dawn Final Chapter
Summary:Â Calumet, Colorado is just a normal, American town. And the Winchesters are just a normal family. Until war breaks out on their doorstep. Now, they have to fight not only for their lives, but the lives of their friends, neighbors, and all of America. Based off the Red Dawn movies.
Warnings: Brief language
AN: Thank you so much for everyone who read this train wreck! I hope you liked reading it as much as I liked writing it!
Twelve Years Later
âThis year is the tenth anniversary since the defeat of North Korean forces and the reclaiming of the United States. Several events are going on not only today, but all week. There is a memorial service on the front lawn of the White House today, followed by a nationwide moment of silence. Several rebuilt cities are hosting festivities including firework shows. July 4th is a big event, but this gives newer generations a taste of what is worth fighting forâŚâ
âIâm tired of hearing this every year.â Benny grumbled, cleaning glasses behind the bar. Retirement looked good on him. He had taken a job at Salâs not long after Operation Reclaim. The colonel was finally ready to relax and more than willing to break up a bar fight here or there.
âOh come on, itâs not that bad.â Jo said, setting her tray on the bar and dropping off a couple beer steins. âItâs patriotic.â Benny shook his head and took the glasses from her. The bell above the door rang then and Benny smiled as Lisa came in.
âHey honey.â Benny said, walking from around the bar to place a kiss on her lips. âLong night?â
âTell me about it.â She groaned. âI was going to go pick Ben up from daycare, but heâs asleep so I just thought Iâd let him be for a little bit.â Benny smirked and went back around to pour Lisa a beer.
âJimmy invited us all to mass tonight.â Jo said. âMom said I should go. Said church would do me some good.â
âIâve made my peace with god. Weâre good now.â Benny said with a shrug. Lisa was about to say something when a noise outside caught her attention. She turned to look out the glass door and gasped at what she saw.
A black, 1967 Chevy Impala drove by the bar.
âIs thatâŚâ Jo started, looking from Benny to Lisa. Lisa set her beer down and went to the door.
âHeâs back.â She said. Benny looked around the bar and found it empty. Everyone who had been here had to go back to work or the festivities in town. He turned the Open sign off and turned off the lights.
âLetâs go see him then.â He said.
****
The car made the trek up the road towards the forest, which was now a state park. People came with their kids to have picnics and camp, many knowing about what happened on this mountain, but someday it would just be a page in the history books and the people who came out here wouldnât know from a first-hand source what had happened here. On the edge of the forest, in a clearing, set several boulders. A plaque was anchored to one of the boulders, explaining the significance of the boulders. The Impala parked right there, right by that memorial.
The driverâs door opened up and Dean Winchester climbed out. His skin had been kissed by the sun on his travels, making him a couple shades tanner than he had been when he left Colorado years ago. Dark sunglasses covered his eyes, hiding the green orbs from anyone. A baseball cap that said San Jacâs Saloon was on his head. He had worked there for a couple months while living in Austin. He had worked a lot of places for not very many months, just trying to keep himself busy. He took note of some people standing around the boulder, staring at the names and other things carved into it.
âThis stands a memorial for the brave men and women who died during the North Korean occupation of the United States,â A man read to his kids. âThese people died so that we could live, and we must remember them. This stands so that people can also remember the Hunters, a group of kids and young adults who fought to keep Calumet safe for another dayâŚâ
Dean nodded along as he read the names on the stone. John Winchester, Mark Pellegrino, Jessica Moore, Caleb Padalecki, Rick Padalecki, Rufus Turner, as well as a few other names that hadnât been there when Dean left. But one name was missing, and that bugged him more than anything. Pulling out a pocket knife he had gotten while working in Georgia, Dean climbed up on the rock.
âHey! I donât think youâre supposed to be up there.â The woman that was there with the man and kids said. Dean ignored her, climbing to the top and starting to carve Samâs name into the stone like Sam had done with all the others.
âHey!â The man said. Dean glared down at him, gripping his knife. The man raised his hands. âUhâŚnever mind.â He quickly led the woman and the kids away from Dean.
âStupid asshole.â Dean grumbled to himself. He slid down to the ground after he finished his work. Sam Winchester. His name deserved to be up there with all the others. He deserved so much more than what he got. But Dean couldnât fix that. This was the best he could go.
âI saw your book.â A voice said behind Dean. He spun around and saw Crowley standing there. He was wearing a police uniform, something that surprised Dean. He always expected an orange jumpsuit. âItâs really good. Samâs journal. That was a good idea.â
âHey Crowley.â Dean said, folding up his pocket knife. âHowâd you know Iâd be here?â
âA vintage â67 Chevy Impala comes into town and people talk.â He said with a shrug. âThey all want to see you.â
âI canât. Not with the way I left.â Dean said. âIâm just stopping through. Have an appointment with a woman named Jenny. She lives in the old house and has things that were left.â He looked Crowley up and down. âAnd since when did you get on the right side of the law?â
âSince you ran off and inspired people.â Crowley explained. âYou and Sam saved a lot of people. I figure that I might as well follow youâre example.â Dean sighed. âJimmy is hosting a mass tonight. More of a get together for the surviving Hunters. Please come.â
âCrowleyâŚâ
âThere will be food.â Crowley said with a shrug. Dean sighed.
âWeâll see.â He turned and headed for his car, leaving Crowley standing there by his own.
****
âMommy, is this going to be boring?â Ben asked as Lisa carried him into the church. While it would be a mass, it was really more of a reunion for the hunters that remained in Calumet, or the ones that had survived the occupation.
âNo honey. Itâll be fun.â Lisa said, ruffling his hair. âAnd Aunt Meg and Uncle Cas will be here. I know how much you love them.â Benny watched his wife and son with a pleased smile on his face.
Soon, Benny, Lisa, Jo, Cas, Crowley, Meg, Ruby, and Bobby gathered in the first few pews of Jimmyâs church. Ben set between Benny and Lisa, staring at the beautiful stain glass windows and amazing artwork. Jimmy looked around at everyone, sighing a little.
âIâm glad to see everyone here.â He said. He was about to start his small sermon before the food was served when the doors to the church opened. Everyone turned around to look.
âMom, whoâs that?â Ben asked. Lisa stood up and raced down the aisle to him, wrapping her arms around him.
âDean.â Lisa gasped, hugging him tightly. She pulled back after a second. âWhere the fuck have you been?! Sorry Jimmy.â
âAcceptable in this case.â Jimmy said, waving her off. Dean took the hat off his head.
âEverywhere.â He said. âI stayed in Free America until the occupation was over. Then I travelled the country. Anywhere I could to keep my mind off of things. Published Samâs journal, minus a page or two.â He looked around at everyone staring at him, including a little boy he had never seen before. âThis can all wait though.â
âI think the lord would rather hear this story than me telling his word right now.â Jimmy said. Dean shook his head. He didnât want to get into this right now. He didnât even really want to be here, but talking to some of the old neighbors who had gotten their homes back and seeing Crowley up at the mountain made Dean think. And he decided it was best after all these years to tell them he wasnât dead. He sighed and set in a pew. Everyone turned so they could see him.
âWell, after I left, I headed towards deep Free America. I hung out there for a while, doing some training for Special Forces who would go to drive the enemy out. Once that happened, I bounced from state to state. Texas for a few months, New York, hell I even ended up in Canada for a while. But after all that running, I got tired. I figured it was time I came home.â Dean explained.
âWeâre glad youâre back.â Jimmy said. âIf you need a place to stay, Iâm sure that many of us would open our homes to you.â Dean nodded and settled into the pew. Plans could be made later. Right now, Dean just wanted to listen and forget for a while.
****
Months Later
A mountains still were a beautiful backdrop to Calumet. The roads had been repaved during reconstruction, taking away potholes and unnecessary bumps. The McDonaldâs with the burnt out M had been upgraded and was now partnered with a gas station. âEat here and get gasâ was a popular joke among the locals. The inside was new though, and it still was a popular place for breakfast.
The movie theater had been updated with a digital projector. But it mainly showed vintage films on the weekends and kids movies during the week when schools were on a break. There was a multi-cinema not too far away that housed newer films. Currently, there was an Elvis movie on the marquee. Viva Las Vegas and Jailhouse Rock would be on screen this weekend.
The parking lot of the high school was finally paved. There were a lot of divots in the gravel from tanks and other machines tearing it up. The Wolverine had been painted, standing out against the old building now. There was a memorial in the main hall of the high school, to remember the former students of Calumet who had fought hard and proud to keep the town safe.
Dean Winchester took it all in as he drove from the small house he had bought on his old street. Two down from the one he used to live in with his brother and dad. He had gotten a job at the old garage his dad worked at. The owner had welcomed Dean with open arms, after making Dean promise that he wasnât going to jump ship after a couple months. So Dean made the trek from home to work, a Blue Oyster Cult song soundtrack for his drive.

Ben Nichols Shows me How to Use My Cellphone Camera
My 4 year old son was shocked to learn that I have friends. That's because I meet them online and travel to meet them so he never sees them. Any way, my "Dysfunctional Drinking Lucero Twitter" family met in Memphis for the Lucero Family Christmas at Mingelwood Hall a few weeks ago. We had tweeted in November that we should all meet in person--take that step from virtual friends to real friends --and hope that there were no nutcases among us. So, Stephanie, Chris, John and Lucero Anonymous (can't recall his real name so his twitter handle is apt) and I met at Aflred's on Beale for pre-show drinks.I was the oldest one so I was immediately dubbed "Uncle Bobby." Stephanie tweeted that, "we are all wild as hell and totally obsessed with Lucero. Uncle Bobby is the most sane." We caught some cabs and headed to Midtown. We were drinking Jameson before Lucero hit the stage and I found Ben near the back bar. He said, "Nice to see you again," and I told him there was someone who had to meet him--right now. I ran to the front of the stage and got Stephanie and told her to come with me--I promised her she'd be happy if she did. So we went and I introduced her to Ben.  Well, we had to get a pic to capture the moment. Stephanie and Ben huddled up and  I whipped out my trusty prepaid phone and took a pic. No flash-- so the pic sucked. At that time, Ben comes over to me, holds out his hand and says, "Here. let me see that. I will turn on the flash." He got the phone, turned the flash on and said, "Okay, let's do this again." The next pic turned out great and Stephanie was still in that "I met my hero" shocked state as a few tears streamed down her face. (I can relate--first time I met Bruce Springsteen my knees were literally shaking.) To top off the night, I finally met Facebook Diehards Carrie Reddit and  and got to see Mary Ellen again. This was the night that I met LB. It was her birthday, she said. Met some good friends that night.
On the way back from the show, we asked our car driver to hit a McDonaldâs Drive-thru. We asked if he liked Lucero. Never heard of them he said, but the Smashing Pumpkins are his fav, but could not name a single song.
The  Twitter family is planning to head to Birmingham  for another Lucero show in early February . The before Ben fixed my flash and after pics are attached
