From Arthur and Mordred To Ozai and Zuko (and the lives in-between)

[Or, where I take Arthurian Mythology, Harry Potter, and Avatar: the last Airbender and smash them into the same story-line.]

After their deaths at the battle of Camlann, Arthur Pendragon is given a choice: wait for whenever Albion needs him most, or enter a reincarnation cycle with two others in order for them to learn from and repent of their sins so that when they are finally needed, they can become the people they were always meant to be.

Arthur accepts this offer, weighed down by the crimes he committed against his son Mordred when the boy was a babe, and the senseless deaths of those who fought with him against his rebellious offspring, just to name a few things.

He ends up in a limbo of sorts, and finds his old mentor, Merlin and Mordred there waiting for him. Mordred feels immense guilt for trying to take over the kingdom and causing his father’s death, in what was ultimately a really badly thought out bid for his father’s love and acknowledgement.

Merlin doesn’t feel any guilt, whether for how he manipulated Arthur, or tried to drown Mordred as an infant, or even the debacle with Nimue. However his loyalty to Arthur is strong enough, and his heart is (usually) in the right place, which is enough for Fate and Death to give him a second chance.

In their second lives, Merlin is reborn as Albus P.W.B. Dumbledore, a wizard, Arthur is born as Tom Riddle, the non-magical son of wealthy land-owners. and just like Igraine, he was bewitched with a spell and fathered Mordred’s reincarnation, Tom Marvolo Riddle. In this timeline, Fleamont and Euphemia Potter die old and childless, James Potter never having been born. Lily Potter and Severus Snape are friends, but not in love with each orher. Given that the Mauraders never formed, Severus and many others school days weren’t made a humiliating hell. Remus did however, eventually form a friendship with Sirius Black. Harry Potter isn’t born, and the Prophecy is never given.

Tom Jr. still kills his father, rips his soul apart and goes mad while at the same time taking over the world. There is no one to stop him, until a few brave students (Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, Cedric Diggory and Draco Malfoy) go off on a hunt for the horocruxes, and eventually destroy them. Albus Dumbledore is too busy actively fighting Voldemort and has somehow never learned of the horcruxes. It is Luna who is killed by the Ring’s curse while horcrux hunting, as she longs to see the mother who died when she was a young child.

When Mordred’s present life is finally killed, his soul is stitched back together, and Death gives him and Arthur a second chance to try and make better choices, by putting them in more optimal circumstances. They rewind to where Fate feels the first knot in the tapestry of the timeline is, and Arthur is reborn again, in the 1960s as James Potter. Unfortunately, due to Fate and Death’s meddling, in 1980 Sybil Trelawny gives a prophecy dooming a child who has already suffered in two lifetimes.

James has flashes of his past lives, as King Arthur and Tom Sr. He grows up feeling a sense of entitlement and that those around him are never what they seem. He has nightmares that push him to learn spells to test for drugs in his food and drinks, convinces his parents to let him learn to fight with swords. But it is only when he faces Voldemort on October 31 1981 that he really Remembers. By then, it is too late, and he dies again at his son’s hands.

Mordred has been reborn as Harry Potter. With no living father to direct his anger at over his living circumstances, and no mother dripping poison in his ears turning him against his father, he constantly searches for something that he is never able to name in the adults around him. The Dursleys’ fear of him is an odd comfort, and when he hears Petunia speaking of him with her neighbors, something about her words, warning them away from him, about how strange he is (he has heard this before, from someone he cared just as little) he smiles. Harry grows up despising the Dursleys’ and somehow realizing that he doesn’t belong with them.

Interestingly, when Harry starts Hogwarts, he goes into Ravenclaw. He also has a deep loathing of Albus Dumbledore for which he cannot explain. His times of battling Voldemort are confusing and disorienting.

Eventually Harry dies, is yet again reunited with his father, and gets the memories of his past lives downloaded into his brain. Coming back to life after his past self kills him? Harry ends the battle and just, goes to the nearest pub and gets thoroughly trashed.

Life goes on, as it always does, and Harry dies a second time, and is reborn in another universe, as a prince and a Firebender, named Zuko. Zuko’s father Ozai is the reincarnation of Arthur/Tom Riddle/James Potter. While Zuko’s uncle Iroh is the reincarnation of Merlin/Albus Dumbledore.

Things really only start to change the night Zuko is forced to fight in an agni kai after accidentally “disrespecting” his father. And he refuses. Ozai moves to strike, but the moment before his hand lights Zuko’s face on fire, a white light knocks them away from each other. The next half-hour is spent with Ozai and Zuko unconscious while they’re dealing with sorting through three life-times worth of memories.

Zuko wakes up first, and after getting his dual dao and packing a bag, tries to get out of the palace as quickly as possible, certain that Father is going to kill him for, y’know, killing him three times over.

The servant who intercepts him and drags him to go speak to his father deserves a raise with all the shouting and struggling the poor man has to deal with. Zuko ends up grounded for all the crap he pulled as Voldemort.

The underlying tension between Ozai and Zuko eventually explodes when the Avatar returns and Iroh’s memories of *his* past lives return.

[Looking at it, this probably would need like, at least three different books to do this justice]

Male Crow Eater: Tig Trager

Summary: As Charming Cinemas opens with a mattinee of Smokey & The Bandit, you plan on inviting SAMCRO as your plus group, however Tig has a plan of his own.

Warnings: M/M smut (21+), Bareback (Wrap Before You Tap!), Vouyerism

Inspired by: https://twitter.com/MaleThirst/status/1201339860633571334

After what seemed like a long time of work, the final stages of building Charming Cinema had arrived, which is a big time for any constructor as you gazed out at the finished work with SAMCRO all next to you to celebrate “Good work man.” Jax said to you & the club murmured it’s approval “At least your asshole boss will stop hassling you about us now.” Tig snarked “Well he’s gonna get a shock on Grand Opening day.” “Why’s that doll?” Tig asked intrigued, “As a thank you, we get to invite people this weekend, the mattinee is Smokey & The Bandit, and I” “We’re in, whatever it is, we’re in.” Tig proclaimed, causing you to smirk “Was wondering if ya’ll would like to be my invite, I can put it under ‘Teller-Morrow Workers’ so he won’t know it’s you guys, you need to keep you kutte’s out of sight though.” “Seems fair enough.” Jax looked to his brotherhood and asked “All in favour of being Y/N’s date to the Charming Cinema opening say I.” “I” the orher members spoke in unison all raising their hands “That settles it.” Jax said “When do you need us.” “It actually starts at midnight that day, so you all would be up, we get the day off as other people are coming in to make sure things are up and working, so I’ll be at the Clubhouse picking out suits and shit for you guys.” “Deal.” Said Jax leaning in for a kiss to seal the deal, with much wolf whistling from the crowd. “Not right now, I need to head back, but I’ll see you later.” SAMCRO waves you off, before Tig turned to the group “So tonight I’m gonna get Y/N to give me a run through of the place, here’s what we’re gonna do.”

A few days passed where final procedures were put into place. You went over to the clubhouse to get everyone’s measurements for their suits, everyone was cooperative, apart from Tig who asked you for the floorplan. You eventually gave it to him, wondering why he wanted to know “Don’t worry about it doll.” He grinned and winked at you, making you wonder about what he could pull, as Tig was often the most daring SAMCRO member.

The night before the opening finally arrived, and you were brimming with excitement at the product finally being shown off. You had rented out a limo for the club so they could arrive in style and piss off your boss with how formal they were. “I still don’t understand why we can’t scare him with our bikes.” Juice said “I’d love to, but it’s opening night procedure and I have to set an example, after tomorrow, you can rock up and vroom your engine to scare him, but doing it tonight would set people on edge.” “He’s right, we can be formal for one night, right guys?” Jax asked to a murmur of ascent. Things went smoothly after that, you made it to the confectionary stand with no problems with Ratboy being designated on carrying everyone’s snacks and then passing them out so you got your Ice cream and Popcorn to share with Tig who chose to sat right next to you “I’m excited, Smokey & The Bandit is my favourite film of all time! Love that damn film!” You smiled at his enthusiasm “I’m glad you could be here for me, all of you guys.” At that point as everyone had filtered in, the lights dimmed for previews so Jax sent an obligatory thumbs up.

Midway through the film, Tig tapped on your shoulder “What’s up?” You whispered, not wanting anyone else to hear “I need you outside, it’s urgent.” Quickly you rose to your feet and escorted Tig outside “Are you ok? Is something wrong? Are you losing feeling in your legs?” Your questioning was stopped by Tig slamming you into the wall and kissing you deep. “Fuck that was exhilierating.” Tig whispered hotly “You said it was urgent, I feared the worse!” You said a little angrily “It is Y/N.” He moved your hand to his clothed cock “I’ve been fucking hard since you sat next to me, my balls are so full of cum, I need you to milk it out of me like the good Crow Eater you are.” You shook your head, a grin forming on your face “Lead the way Tig.” He scooped you up in his arms and made his way forwards. You expected he’d take you to the men’s toilets to fuck in the cubicle, but he continued up the stairs “Tig, the” “I know doll, I have a surprise that I’ve been planning for a while.” He walked into the staff room, where your boss often had meetings, thank goodness it was empty. Tig sat in your boss’s seat at the head of the table and pushed you to your knees “Suck my dick.” Tig ordered and you wasted no time taking his pants down as he removed his kutte, finishing as you took his cock deep into your mouth “Oh shit, fuck yes!” Tig moaned out as he sat back, arms outstretched as he enjoyed your technique on his dick. “Like that (Y/N), Oh God, you wanna get a raise then you better suck me off like that! Fuck baby!” With the boss/employee storyline in place, you decided to up the ante and moved down and begun to suck his balls “OH FUCK!” Tig yelled out “Fuck yeah! So good for daddy! Now this is that good shit! Suck daddy’s balls baby boy, get em in your mouth, breathe in my musk, smells good huh?” You nodded your head, tongue circling around each of Tig’s balls reducing the man to a collection of groans and moans as he held your head and guided you.

Eventually he pulled you off him “Up on the table babe.” You quickly slid onto the wooden table in front of Tig, noticing out of the corner of your eye the CCTV camera “Oh shit! Tig, we’re being filmed!” You said pointing up at it “Oh yeah, we are!” He waved at the camera “Tig! This is bad! I could lose my-“ “Calm down doll!” He reached into his fallen pants and pulled out his phone. He worked with it for a bit before he showed it to you, on the screen was a FaceTime chat with Clay on the other end in what looked like the CCTV room, with your boss on the floor, seemingly knocked out “We figured your Two Suit Boss needed to get some SAMCRO vengance for the pressure he put you under for being with us, so Clay slipped out earlier and beat him unconscious, he has full control of the cameras & footage, we’re gonna take the footage of us and run our own SAMCRO Cinema unveiling later, the matinee is of you being my good fucking slut and taking daddy’s cock like a good Crow Eater.”

“You are something else Tig.” You knew he was out there but the fact he’d go this far for you was shocking but also really pleasing “Fuck yeah I am. Now spread your legs for me.” You did as he asked “Fuck your asshole looks good, can’t wait to get my dick up inside it.” Tig wasted no more time and fucked himself deep inside said asshole. “FUCK!” You groaned, your head hitting the table “Ouch!” “Fuck, doll, you alright?” Tig rubbed your head soothingly “Yeah, I didn’t expect how hard you’d be.” “Y/N, I’m a very big man, even bigger when I think about ya, now let daddy take care of you.” Tig began to work himself in & out of you with a rough pace, moans falling out of his mouth “You’re so fucking tight babe, fuck you’re the tightest hole I’ve ever fucked, and I’ve fucked so many over my time.” Tig leant down over you, kissing you deep. He rubbed your nipples as you ran your hands down his chest hair “Fuck you’re hot.” I breathed out “Back at ya.” Tig grinned, suddenly pulling out “Turn over.” You swiftly turned over, moaning out as Tig fucked back into you.

Now fucking from behind, Tig was able to go deeper, moaning louder “Fuck Tiggy, you’re so fucking good.” You praised, to the bikers ears “I wanna stay in your ass forever. Your walls are tight and cozy around my dick. Such a good Crow Eater for daddy.” You let multiple moans fall out as he continued to fuck you “Oh yeah!” Tig groaned, loving how well you were taking his cock “This is better than watching Smokey, this is way. fucking. better.” He hit your prostate deeply, leaving you a mess of sweat & moans as you tightened around him. He pulled out yet again, causing you to moan in despair “Tig, I need you!” He laughed “Get up from there babe.” As you moved off the table, you saw him sitting in your boss’s chair again “Sit on it.” He didn’t need to ask twice, you slid your legs in between the slats on the chair and lowered yourself onto his dick. “That’s it, Oh fuck! I fuckin love your ass Y/N!” He groaned out, slapping it as you both returned to your rhythm, the air filling with moans & groans from the both of you. He bit into your nipples making you scream out “OH FUCK TIG!” He laughed, “God I love you Y/N.” “I love you too Tig.” You moaned back, kissing him deep.

Both of your paces began to get sloppy & you knew you wouldn’t last much longer “Fuck Tig, I’m gonna” Tig began to stroke your cock “Do it babe, cum for daddy Tig, shoot all over daddy’s hairy chest!” His dirty talk, his Earth shattering fuck, it finally pulled you under. You were a mess of moans as you shot all over him “Oh fuck! You made a mess of daddy! But I fucking love it!” He went faster than before, causing you to bend backwards a moaning mess as he continued to work into you, your walls now extra tight from your orgasm. “Fuck doll, daddy’s gonna cum, Tiggy’s gonna cum deep inside you! You’re so tight round my cock, make Daddy proud & take all his cum, FUCK!” He kept going roughly before finally “OH YES! FUCK YEAH!” He shuddered roughly as he shot his load deep. You reached back up, giving him a deep kiss that he returned with matching passion, breaking it, you licked his moustache “Fuck, keep that up and I’m gonna get hard again.” You repeated your action & low and behold, his cock began to get hard again “Fuck, you are insatiable!” “Only for you babe, only for you.” You both kissed as you removed your legs from the slats and both of you stood up & started to get dressed again, Tig reached for his phone “What did you think Clay?” “See for yourself.” You heard him say, Tig let out a “Well shit.” Before showing you the phone, Clay was holding his right hand up, covered in his load. You & Tig took a moment to appreciate the sight before Tig disconnected the call. “SAMCRO Cinema is gonna be fucking great, I can tell. We’ll go back and watch the film, then I’ll go get confectionary for us all, then as they watch our movie, I’ll take you down the hall, shove my musky balls in your mouth, you’ll love them, I’ll fucking cum, we’ll have a good fucking night.” You leaped into Tig, wrapping your legs round his back as you kissed him “Damn baby, where did you come from? Doll, I fucking love you.” Tig kissed you deep again as you let his compliments wash over you, SAMCRO was where you belonged.

Hi!! Could you please do headcanons with izuku and kirishima where they have a female s/o who wears a lot of pastels, is super sweet, and is generally UwU, and they go to hang out in her room and she’s like “would you mind if I put on some music?” And they think she’s gonna put on some sweet wholesome songs, maybe some piano or harp, and instead she starts blasting death metal or screamo? I feel like their reactions would be funny. Thanks!!!

Midoriya Izuku x UwU pastel bby reader

There’s really nothing more relaxing than a day on the beach with your boyfriend of four months. The two of you were very similar in some ways; the soft, kind song that was your voice made people feel like you were tossing flower petals at their faces, and the lilac colored strands of hair that draped over your forehead made your face that much cuter.

So you could imagine The Look™️ on Izuku’s face when your portable speaker blasted an ominous growl, before you scrambled for your phone to stop it with a deep blush on your face.

“W-What the heck was that, Bunny?” His eyes were wide in shock, and his cheeks were tinted a faint pinks, similar to the one piece bathing suit you were wearing.

“I—I uh, I may or may not have a hardcore metal playlist or... t-two...” You mumble, pulling the phone closer to your body and closing your limbs on yourself. “Please don’t call me a freak.”

“(Y/N)! You’re n-not a freak! It was so unexpected though, I— I kinda got a bit s... scared.” Now it was his turn to crumble within himself.

“But you don’t think I’m weird now?” You ask.

“O-Of course not!! You’re my baby!” He beams, tackling you onto the blanket. “I just didn’t know my Bunny was a badass.” He says with a smile, leaning in to plant a soft peck on your lips.

“Does that mean I can turn it back on?”

“M-Maybe later, I’m still a little st-startled.” He smirks with a feign look of fear in his eyes.

“Oh shut up, Deku.” You giggle, pulling him back into a kiss.

Kirishima Ejirou x UwU Bby

It wasn’t rare for Kirishima to sit with you and your girl friends, but sometimes, he could annoy the heck outta them.

After a brutal sparring match with Bakugou(for training purposes, ofc), he was not only sore, but staaaaarving. Totally. Un. Manly.

And his food choices were wack; He smashed an entire bag of potato chips— Family Sized. (a mood tbh).

He had cracked open edamame for the past 5mins, collecting 10 at a time and eating the beans by tossing them all into his mouth and chomping away.

“K-Kiri..?” You say softly, your fairytail-like voice was like a charm for Ejirou; he felt Extremely Manly™️ in your presence, and loved the way you said his name.

“Yes, my love? Did you need something, Angel?” He chirped while wiping his mouth and hands off with napkins.

“B-Baby, could we spend the rest of lunch hour in my dorm? I have some leftover curry y-you could h— ahh!” You yelped as Kirishima lifted you into his arms, your belongings already packed up.

You’ve had him over before, but briefly as you changed for your internship at your agency. As you stepped into the dorm, it dawned on him that he never really studied your room. The back wall had a lilac to pastel pink gradient painted tapestry covering the whole thing, but right above your work desk, where you keep your headphones, was a tiny red light.

With further investigation— as you changed out of your school uniform and into lounge clothes— the fire hydrant cosplayer discovered it was a button to a rather large speaker.

It never occured to him that you had never spoke about music with him before.

Curious boys do curious things

~Beep~ ‘Speaker on, now playing.’ says the AI you have linked to your computer and orher electronics.

“EJI— WAIT, NO!” But you were too late. A scornful screech blasted through your room, followed by the most hardcore guitar riffs you had on your computer.

He was still for a moment, so confused as to how someone as precious as his Angel was into music like this when the music stopped with a ~beep~!

“Are you gonna think I’m crazy now?” you say with a pout, your soft pink pajama blouse, and white pajama shorts creasing slightly as you crossed your arms.

“(Y/N), if anyone is crazy... it’s ME! I’m so crazy for you!” He laughs, lifting about almost every worry you had for a bit. “But really, your music— ITS SO MANLY!”

The cheer in his voice and the way he lept into the air was no facade— He likes your music, too!

Star Trek time, Watched four more episodes, so here’s four more musings!

Dagger of the Mind: Overall good episode. The Neural neutralizer is both fascinatign and horrifying. It’s another episode that got my attention based off concept alone, the planting/removal of emptions. Pretty sure tis thing would be VERY unethical int he mental health field, but still. Also nice to finally see Spock use the Mind Meld since that’s something I was waiting on. Feel like Kirk having had a fling with Dr. Noel was an unecessary point to add aside from the emotion fo still having feelings for what was essentially a one night fling just didn’t add anything, though the plantng of the emotion by Dr. Noel and then exploited to painful levels by Adams was again fascinating and horrifying. Overall, a good episode that again has interesitng ideas that are played well enough to keep my investment. 4/5

The Corbonite Manuver: Boring. Is this gonna be like the Star Trek movie curse? Where every odd numbered episode is meh at best snd stupid at worse, while all the even numbered episodes are at least interesting? All I remember after watching it is that they dealt with an lien force that originally looked like a Rubix Cube without the squares. Oh and the voice of Ted Cassidy, that was nice~ But yeah, ptherwise it was boring. Not unwatchable, but forgettable, 2/5

The Menagerie, P1: Well... that was something. It was an interesting episode since even this early on, we know that Spock is very much loyal to Kirk and the Enterprise. For him to commit mutiny for any reason, even for a former CO, is surprising yet the protrayal doesn’t come off as OOC. It makes me wonder why Spock would go to extreme measures like this, what happened to Pike to put him in this condition, and what going to this planet will do. I don’t want Spock to be court martialed, even though his actions would justify doing so and even he seems to agree with that. Which just makes me wonder what is going on even more. Also clever use of original pilot footage, as well as finding a way to fit the pilot into canon, and the characters questioning how Spock has this type of footage recorded as it is is the kind of meta I love (also... so women ARE allowed to wear pants? At least in the pilots? So why do they all wear impractical super short dresses until Next Generation?!). But yeah, seeing this side of Spock’s character very much kept my attention and make me want to understand why he’s doing what he’s doing. Will Part 2 continue that? 4/5

The Menagerie, P2: Well, that explains where the green alien women came from. Anyways, wasn’t as into this one since it’s more original pilot footage (I liked the female Number One though, why couldn’t they keep her around?), but it did answer my questions. The aliens illusion powers are freakin’ scary. The show seems too very good when it deals with mental concepts like android emotions, involuntary loss of self control, or having emotions and thoughts implanted or taken out of your mind. Those are so far the episodes I like most, and this helped keep me interested in the Pike footage along with wanting to know what Spock was trying to show us. It also shows how despite his detached, logical demeanor Spock DOES care since he risked court martial AND a death sentence just to help his former captain have a chance at a normal life again... well okay it turned out to be an illusion to distract Kirk but still the risk was there. Mind you...won’t Pike more or less just be living a lie li,e Eve was in Mudd’s Women? IDK, I get what they’re going for, but it still feels off after that episode’s mesage. But yeah Part 2 was okay and good for Spock’s character, but P1 was very much superior and this was more an excuse to use pilot footage. 3/5

Okay, that’s twelve episodes down so far. Also if you’d like to know how I rank the first eight since I didn’t do it earlier:

The Man Trap = 2/5

Charlie X = 3.5/5

Where No Man Has Gone Before = 2/5

The Naked Time = 4/5

The Enemy Within = 4.5/5

Mudd’s Women = 2/5

What Are Little Girls Made Of? = 4/5

Miri = 3/5

So far I’d say The Enemy Within is my favorite since the only thing that held it back from a oerfect score was the tasteless sexism. But putting that aside, it was tense, had interesting concepts, and did a lot to make me invested in Kirk as character. Of the one’s I ranked two, The Corbonite Manuver is my least favorite since it bored me enough to uttelry forget about it as soon as it was over. The orher three has at least something I either remember or at least get my initial intention. When it’s good, it’s good. When it isn’t, it’s just boring. But we’ve got plenty more to go for the original series, so we’ll see what awaits us next.

Husky x Amsodeus

(I’m bored and can’t sleep- so have a fan fic! If you wanna pretend it’s your oc , have at it!)

Warning: suggestive , mild nsfw (it’s asmo, when is it NOT nsfw?)

POV Husky

I was quietly doing my studies in my room but i kept getting distracted. Even back home, i would have no motivationand get distracted from work. Maybe i could play games with Levi or even do one of Mammon’s lack of thought schemes? It was pointless, i couldn’t think straight...then my mind drifted when i glanced at my closet.

“Hm.. I haven’t tried some of the cloths Asmo gifted me, i should try them on at least”

I got up from desk and searcged though the closet. The outfits were cery cute but some were noticeablely... revealing. Short skirts, crop top, etc. I guess he just wants me to try something new since i usually wear things that cover me fully. I tried on a few outfits and .. for once i actually liked it, i’m not huge into fashion but these suited me very well! I almost felt sad taking then off but i had to move on to the other outfits. After finishing , i saw something unfamiliar. I was a fair distance t not tell what it was so i walked up to it and pulled it out of the closet and immediately went red. It was pastel pink and blue lace lingere. My mind went mad! Was this on porpose?? Was this for me or was this his? Wither way, he would be hard.

1. I could try it on and hopefully no one comes in or 2. Ask Asmo if it’s his and risk possibility getting pulled into something if his desires. Which wasn’t so bad.. NO! W-we’re just friends! Ugh! But it’ll be hard for either option! Because if it was his, i’d wear it and he’d think i’d be interested! I am but i’m not ready for that!... i think.. I’m not sure anymore. So all i did was put it back and pretend i didn’t see it as well as put the orher cloths away.

I took a breathe and looked over my desk. I still don’t want to work, so i’ll just find another way to distract myself. I left my room and headed to the living area hoping something exciting would happen. As i enter, no one was there. Of course. Of all times, when i need something! Come on! Naybe at least Mammon getting chased by lucifer or Beel being Beel, anything! As I was irritated , i felt a hand on my shoulder

“Husky? What are you doing Darling?”

I froze a little, reconizing that sensual voice. I turned and just as expected. It was Asmodeus

“H-Hey Asmodeus!”

He giggled “Sweetie, you can just call me Asmo~”

“R-right..”

God dammit.. my heart.. why of all people i had to be alone with is the one that I want..trying to get my thoughts, he interrupted

“What are you doing? Do you have any plans?”

“Huh- uh,no. Not really.”

He smiled “perfect!”

He grabs my hand and pulls me. W-wha? What is he doing!? More importantly where is he taking me..? I felt so red and heated, especially since he’s holding my hand! I never held anyone with anyone outside of family members. It felt nice. We arrived at his door, I’m actually interested since i never got to see his room before.

“So... why am i here?”

“Too have fun, duh! We never got to do beauty treatment together!”

Huh? What is he talking about..? Does he mean make up or cleaning in shower with special products??

“You can sit while i prepare the face masks~”

Oh no- oh no no no- i am not ready for this- it’s not even sexual and i’m freaking out! I never really did anything girly so this is really out of touch for me but.. i don’t wanna ruin his run so i’ll just go with it. He soon came back with products and was applying a face mask and he did his as well. It felt weird but i guess it’s supposed to , it was sticky. I really feel out of place with this, hell i never even do make up let alone do a spa treatment!

“Hey husky?”

“Y-yes?”

“Would you like to take a bath with me after we’re done with this?”

I had a mini heart attack! D-did he really ask ME to get naked in a tub with him!? Hell no! I’m not ready for something like that! So i wuickly said

“N-no!”

“Awww.. why not??”

“I-.. I-I’m not comfortable with my ... body..”

He smiled “well i figured! Based on how you were, i thought you would lighten up about yourself with the warode i got you!”

My heart felt touched” aw well that’s swe-“

“I thought for sure the lingere would of boosted your confidence somewhat!”

...wha- th-the lingere.. really was for me..? I had to sit there and recalculate before. So the lingere was for me then. Thank god i didn’t have to ask him about it, that would of been a whole nother can of worms. Well he said it was to boost my confidence but isn’t that pushing it a little?? I’m not too sexual..

“O-oh i haven’t tried it on yet”

“What!? Why not?”

“I must’ve not seen it!” I’m lying so bad-

“Well you can try it on after this then!”

I hesitately agreed. When we finished up with the masks but then i realized ... he was coming with me. Oh god- do i have to change in front of him!? This is happening way to fast.. as we walked to my room, i felt like i was gonna break, i felt so warm , i thought i was gonna die from my own heat! We finally reached there and i was so nervous..

“Well you can change in the bathroom, i’ll wait out here”

I sighed in relief, at least i didn’t have to be fully naked in front of him. I got into the bathroom and changed as slowly as possible. I never wore lingere because i thought i would never get a partner.. so it felt weird plus Asmo might cut me some slack for being slow because i never experienced lingere. After a bit, i knew i couldn’t stalk for long. I finished and headed out of the bathroom with the lingere on.

“Oh my!~ you look goregeus! “

I blushed deep”t-thanks”

“As cute as you look.. i think it would be better if it was off..~~”

I jumped a little “w-wait what?!”

Before he could speak , Mammon bursted though the door “ay Husky! I got this idea fo-“ he froze mid sentence, checking out the lingere i was wearing, it barely covered.

My eye twitched and i grabbed the first thing i could throw, a book “GET THE HELL OUT , MAMMON!” I threw the book

“AAAH! “ he dodged “ok ok!” He slammed the door shut

I covered my face , oh my god! I can’t believe someone ELSE had to see me like this! I would of decently been fine if it was just one person but more then one is too much! Asmo giggled. Well I’m glad someone thinks it’z funny...

“W-what?!”

“You’re just so cute~ getting so flustered over lingere”

“I mean it’s used for sex , is it not!?”

“I mean yeah, but that’s nothing compared to what i usually see~”

I blushed, if lingere is not something that’s “not bad” , what could be more devious than that?! I give up.. i’m not even going to question anything up to this point... but then Asmo approached me

“H-huh..?”

He had his finger uder my chin “It’s sad i can only see this for such a short time~ but I’m glad i was one of the first~ “

My heart was racing. H-he’s close ... wait. What is he..?

Soon he leaned in and gave me a gentle kiss

“!!....”

“Hm~~..”

He stopped and leaned up back with a cheerful smile. I was just... dead. Right there, completely speechless. H-... he took my first kiss....

“T-that .. was my first kiss..”

“Oh! How exciting! You must be honored to be kissed by someone as beautiful as me~”

I knew he was lustful for himself but it can be a little annoying...

He turned away “well i have to go, I hope i can be your first for more things in the future “ he winked and then walked out of the door and closing it.

I have no idea how to feel... but all i know is.. i want him even more now....

( I hope you enjoyed! I’m not the best writer but i hope i did decent!)

Bittersweet Events Part Five 🗡

A/N. Next part will be a time skip to Shifuku being three or four. I want to say a big giant thank you to everyone who has been enjoying this series with me. It means the world to me! ♥️ (All parts can be found under the Papachizome tag!)

It was quiet , the only sound was Stain putting on his costume and hooking all of his weapons to it . The clicking of them made Spinner uneasy. He fumbling his hands over each orher trying to focus on the tv that was still on. Shifuku was asleep next to Spinner on the couch . She was under one of Stains shirts and using it as a blanket. Spinner was still unsure about Stain going out . If something happened.. what would he do? Shifuku...?

Stain came out and Spinner shivered in his scales . Stain was an intimidating man.. the gaze the hair the knives... swords. It was hard to believe he made a tiny cute person.

He went to the couch picking up Shifuku bringing her to his room and sat on the bed looking at her. All wrapped up in one of his shirts . It was the shirt Suki liked to parade around the house in. A simple grey t shirt with swords on it. He rubbed Shifuku’s head watching her sleep. “I wont be gone long.. Papa needs to take care of some business.”

He glanced up when he saw Spinner in the doorway . The lizard man jumped fumbling his hands . Stain got up going to Spinner and handed him his daughter. Shifuku fussed around in her sleep and Spinner held her close looking at Stain but he was already gone.

He ran a long the rooftops, the air hitting his face . The wind cutting at his body and his heart pumping hard to keep up with him . He missed this. Not just the purges but the roof top running . The jumpimg from roof to roof wothout making any noise. The climbing on the fire escapes , everything. This was the one thing he wanted to show Shifuku . Nothing matched this thrill for him , it was a rush he loved.

Stain slammed down on a roof looking over the edge . It was dark and the only light was the streetlights. Spinner was right though, everything went to shit while he was gone. Villains were smashing store windows stealing and looting . The sidewalks were filthy with trash and no Pros in sight . He pulled a sword free and perched himself watching everything unfold.

Some villains were yelling at one another and others were looting and breaking into cars. Pathetic , all of them. A bright light and a loud explosion caught his eye , he got up and hopped a couple roof tops to get a better look. It was Ground Zero and Red Riot. They were rounding up all the villains. Stain crouched down watching the pathetic villains get rounded up with ease. So the Pros had this area secure for the most part, but it was still a block from his complex . He stood up ready to jump only to stop when he heard a voice behind him.

“Been awhile Hero Killer Stain.”

He turned to see Deku , he had blue lightning flashing all around him .

Stain hunched over grinning . This particular Hero was different from the rest. He put his life on the line for others unlike more of these Pros.

“Am i obligated to tell you where ive been?” He teased stepping closer.

Deku got in a fighting stance and ran towards Stain punching his chest, Stain heaved sliding back almost falling off the roof. The.. FUCK?!? How did he miss that?!? How did he let Deku hit him?

Stain fell forward caughing up some spit , he looked around with blurry vision. He heard Deku running towards him and jumped too late , Deku kicked him sending him up in the air then straight back down.

He was dizzy and angry. His body was sore and he realized he was out of practice ... fuck..

“God dammit... get up Stain..” he cursed at himself forcing himself to get up. His knees wobbled and he fell again .

Deku was about to punch him again but he was ... confused on his behaviour. He was not fighting back or preaching about his view of the world.

“Uhm.. Stain..?” Deku asked . “Are you feeling okay? You arent attacking?”

Stain pushed himself up and put his sword away . He did not look at Deku while he spoke. “Im just here to see what ive been missing. I heard things got bad .”

Deku was dumbfounded on this. The Hero Killer Stain was ... just out to watch things unfold?!

“Why?!? I .. i mean its good that you arent purging but uhm.. uh...” he could not find words.

“How long have i been gone? Did you keep track?” Stain asked walking to the edge of a rooftop with his back to Deku.

“Uhm.. a year i think? A year and two months? But what could you have been doing in a yea- WAIT! YOU? Stain?!?”

He jumped to the next roof top fleeing the scene.

Stain fell off the last rooftop slamming into a tree. “God DAMMIT. That hurt...” he pushed himself up looking up at the complex. He held his stomach limping inside and going up to his room.

Spinner was on the couch asleep with Shifuku in his arms also asleep when Stain walked in. The noise alerted Shifuku and she whined fussing around . Stain went over taking her from Spinner and went to his room to sit down. Shifuku was happy to see her father . She reached up at his knives and Stain Quickly pulled everything off placing it on the bed. “Not ready for those yet.” He teased tickling her stomach making her laugh. Stain held her close kissing her head. “Want to hear about Papa’s night? “

Shifuku laughed tugging at his mask and Stain smiled taking it off. “Of course you do huh?”

Please send us an ask stating which group ask and which person you are replying to. Thank you so much in advance!

Anon 1 said:

Hi! I already had searched into the resources of the library and AO3, with multiple combination of tags, and I couldn't find this fic. Modern!Steve was a sex worker that worked from his apartment and most of the fic is them in apartment, i think they text as well, towards the middle/ ending of the story bucky(winter soldier/veteran) asked steve out, and asked help from steve's friends(maybe sam) to make the date more special. i think he ended up buying himself new clothes, and flowers for steve.

Anon 2 said:

hi I'm looking for a misplaced fic about bucky relearning about sex. I remember him doing research and sending porn videos to pepper and then steve says they have to wait 3 months before they have sex. Would love it if anyone can help out!

Anon 3 said:

(i tried sending this earlier but it glitched so i’ll try again) i’m tryna find a stucky fic (obvi) where the avengers catch bucky and have him locked in tony’s vacation house. they call steve to come calm bucky down because buck won’t let bruce check his bullet wound. (steve has been going through real bad mental stuff.) the only orher part i remember is that bucky cuts out a tracker in his rib because he doesn’t want anyone to touch him, and he also sews it up by himself. it’s a cute fic, help

I was wondering if you guys knew the endgame Stucky fix it fic where Steve decided to stay behind but realizes that he’s in love with Bucky while he’s with Peggy and watches as Bucky falls in love with someone else (who dies later on) and regrets not being with him. Thank you!

Anon 5 said:

Hi! I am desperate to find a fic I originally found here and lost. I remember 2 scenes but can’t remember anything from the description. It was post TWS. Sam and Steve trying to find Bucky. At one point they caught up to him and they were surrounded by people trying to get Buck and he asked Steve to shoot him if they grabbed him and at a later scene Bucky pointed a gun at Sam so they wouldn’t take him to a hospital then turned it on himself to make Steve comply. Does that sound familiar at all?

Anon 6 said:

Hi! It’s like 2am and I’ve read this fuc twice before so I know it’s exists. It’s super short and it’s Nat’s perspective and her wanting to throw a Christmas party so they do and there’s minimal Stucky and Clintasha and they mention Thor being Santa Claus. I’ve been looking everywhere but I don’t know why I can’t find it. Thank you so much in advance.

Anon 7 said: (minor character death)

There's this story I've been looking for when Bucky was in a band with Nat, Nat's husband/boyfriend(?), and Clint. And Bucky lost his arm after dropping a speaker or something when Nat's husband has a heart attack or something and dies? I know it's a very vague description, sorry

Anon 8 said:

Hi~ I've tried all the ways I can think of to look for this fic.. As far as I remember, Steve is an omega and Bucky is an alpha (but he can't remember it bc he's brainwashed) Steve suspects someone has been rummaging on his apartment bc of misplaced papers until one day he sees Bucky in his window. Steve's like.. How are you alive are you ok?? But when he makes sudden movements he leaves. They are like that until Bucky is sitting on his couch and then his heat hits. Thank you so much beforehand

Anon 9 said:

Hello! Please help me find the fic where Steve wakes up one day looking for Bucky (Established Relationship) and all the other Avengers cant remember Bucky at all and its because someone who was wronged by the Winter Solider went back in time and killed him before Steve found him in the 21st century. Thanks so much for all you do!

I've been looking for a shrunkyclunks fic but can't seem to find it anywhere. Buckyhas some kind of respitory issue from his military days and works restoring books and things. Antiques? Steve is Captain America, and they meet during/soon after the events of the first Avengers movie. Bucky has to wear a special mask to filter dust, and Stark eventually makes him new ones that do the same thing, but better. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi, I'm looking for this one fic that I read a long time ago, it's one where the avengers think Steve is being abused by Bucky and start acting strange around them, but Steve and Bucky think they found out their kinks or something like that. The main thing I remember from it is that there was no actual abuse in the fic, just misunderstandings

Maybe you guys could help me-- I remember a fic where Bucky was a siren and Steve was a human (later he shows up as a mermaid with no memory of Bucky) and he told Bucky that he shouldn't be ashamed of himself because "Mother Nature cares about him enough to give him the tools he needs to survive" or something like that. Thanks in advance for the help! I appreciate all the things your team does for the fandom! :)

Anon 13 said:

This is really vague but it's literally all I can remember, so if you can't find it it's totally fine. All that I can remember is that for some reason Bucky had to leave at Steve's house, (maybe he worked there? Idk) who is like super rich? Maybe he does something illegal? And like at the beginning Steve is kind of detached and cold towards Bucky so it takes a while for them to start a relationship. Natasha is there? This is the most vague shit ever, I'm sorry, but I can't get it out of my head

hi! i remember reading a stucky fic (and i can’t really remember the premise, sorry :/ ) where i think bucky was like coming back to the tower? i’m pretty sure that HYDRA or some bad guys attacked and bucky wanted to protect Pepper (who still has her extremis powers) and i know he rips someone’s head off and everyone thinks it’s with the metal arm but he did it with the flesh one

Whumper-less whump #1:

This one is about burning through hot water, so if you don't like that, you won't like this. But all in all this is rather harmless and rather tame whump...

I didn't use any of my ocs since none of them fit this, or are good, and i didn't want to make new ones.

"Just go make tea A."

Ouch. That one kinda hurt.

"Yeah. Sure. Why not?"

I get up and smile at B and C and make my way to the kitchen. I fill the watercooker almost the the top. Don't want to have to make water twice. I flip the switch and lean against the door. I can see B and C from here they look really happy, smiling and laughing at eachothers jokes. Still no reason for B to be so passive to me... They barely aknowledged me today. I sigh, absently listening to the water starting to boil in the cooker.

To be fair, I probably shouldn't be here anyway... C is B's friend, not mine. I barely know them. Plus, B hasn't seen them for almost two years. They're bound to want some propper catching up time. I should have just left the house to give them some time alone...

I stop looking at them from afar when i notice that i'm being weird again. Instead I decide to get out three teacups and teabags. I watch the last few seconds of the water boiling in the cooker, dully noting once again that we should probably get a new one.

Once the water is cooked, i take the cooker over to where the tea cups are standing. Just as i'm about to pour hot water into the cup for B (rooibos, their favorite), a bit of hot warer spills out the back of the cooker and onto the hand that is holding the handle. The sudden burst of heat and pain in my left hand instinctivly makes me drop the cooker. It hits the counter and hot water spills all over it.

Unfortunatly, hot water also spills all over my right hand and forearm. I jump back, biting down a string of curses as hot pain spreads throughout my arm. Pulling back the sleve on my right arm, i hastily try to rub off the water with a kitchen towel.

"A? Are you alright in there?"

Shit. I can't ruin B's first day in ages with C with my stupidity.

"I'm alright! Everything's fine! Just droped a teacup."

Wow. That sounded rather steady for how shaky i'm feeling right now.

"Oh. Okay. Be careful not to cut yourself on the shards dear."

"I sure will!"

That came over a little agressive... huh... Biting down a little too hard on my bottom lip, i turn my attention back to the matter at hand. Slowly I sit down on the floor and lean against the wall. Even slower then that I start to unwrap the towel from my arm. The skin covering the area of my hand and arm has turned an angry red and has developed blisters, some rather large ones and smaler ones. There are spesifically three rather large ones on the palm and back of my hand. Oh, and it also hurts... God, it really hurts. It hurts so bad.

But it can't be that bad, right? I'm not an expert, but as far as i know, fire can get alot hotter then just a bit of hot water, so this is probably just a... first degree burn? That's what i thaught you called them... Yeah... seemes about right... And i think i read somewhere that it's good if you feel pain in the burnt areas. And i most definativly can feel pain. So it has to be one of those first degree ones right? One of those burns that doesn't even need to be mentioned.

But how do you make a first degree burn hurt less? Cold water, right? I'm pretty sure cold water is a good idea. Carefuly, only using my left hand, i get up and move over to the sink. I turn the cold water on as strong as possible and wait. When it's as cold as it will get i quickly stick my hand under it. Instantly I'm torn between the rather small amount of relief the freezing water presents and the increasing discomfort of having a full powered steam of water hitting the blistered skin, which is not very suprisingly extreemly sensitive to all kind of pressure. I quickly bring my left hand up to my mouth and bite into the sleve of my shirt. No need to worry B with this by making pained noises. This is nothing to worry about. After a while i start to feel pretty cold. That probably just means it's working. So that's good.

I switch off the water and pick up the kitchen towel from the floor. I wrap it as tightly as possible around my hand and arm, and cover the rest of the blistered skin by pulling my sleve over them. My arm still hurts like hell and i'm shivering quite a bit, but that's probably normal.

So i start cleaning up the mess and make a second pot of hot water. And this time i even manage to pour it without any more stupid slip ups.

Keeping my towel wrapped arm as out of sight as i can, i bring the tea to B and C and place it on the table and sit down with a smile. B stops talking and turns to me.

"What took you so long? Was something wrong?"

I smile again, hoping they can't see through me.

"No, no. Everything was fine! There just where alot of teacup shards to pick up..."

B nods, but does not look convinced. But they still pick up their teacup and drink from it.

"Thank you for the tea, A."

They smile at me. C also smiles.

"Yeah, thanks!"

After a while the attention is away from me and back to their conversation. I don't really listen to what they are talking about. Bit hard to focus when you're in pain. I really want to go get the pack of painkillers we have in the upstairs bathroom. But B would ask where i'm going. And anyway, my legs feel extreemly weak all of a sudden. I doubt they could hold me.

"Are you okay A?"

"Hm?"

Both B and C have a worried expression plastered on their faces. Damn... i didn't want to make them worry... C speaks again.

"Are you okay A? You didn't answer B's questions... and you really are shivering quite a bit..."

I need an excuse, and fast!

"It's... just... cold in here?"

"It is rather cold, but are you sure you're alright?"

B's voice sounds so gentle and comforting and suddendly i just want to be held by them and comforted, let them take the pain away. But that's stupid of me. It's not like this is a bad injury. The pain probably isn't even ghat strong. I'm just weak. C moves closer to where i am sitting and looks down at my hands

"Why is your hand wrapped in a kitchen towel?"

Shit.

"Um... i..."

B now has their hand on my upper arm gently.

"Did you cut yourself?"

"You don't have to hide that from me A..."

I just look away.

"B's right A... you shouldn't feel like you have to hide that you are hurt. Even when i'm visiting."

Still looking away i hold my right arm out in B's direction. I feel how they gently take my arm in their hands and start to unwrap the towel. For a while there is silence. Then i hear B gasp.

"What is it?"

C walks over and also looks at my now unwraped hand. They also gasp.

So much for not worrying anyone.

Gently B brushes back my sleve and removes the rest of the towel. I still don't look at either of them.

"A..."

B's voice is gentle and kind, not dissapointed how i excpected it. This makes me turn to them.

"A... Why didn't you say something? You must be in so much pain!"

B cups my cheek and gently rubs their thumb across it. I suddendly wonder why I was even trying to hide my pain in the first place.suddenly i feel a little bit silly.

"I... didn't think it was nececary... you two where having fun and i was just butting in... And anyway... Not like it's a bad burn..."

B's eyes widen.

"Not a bad burn? A... this is atleast a second degree burn! And don't you ever think that you'd be butting in by telling me that you're hurt."

A wave of cold comes across me again and i shiver. C turns to B again.

"I'll get a blanket from upstairs."

B nods and they leave. Gently B moves their orher hand to my back and rubs circles on it. I lean into the comforting touch as much as possible.

"Should i call an ambulance?"

I shake my head.

"Seemes a bit overkill..."

"Maybe... but we're going to see someone about that arm. As soon as possible!"

I nod. No need to argue with B about that. They can be rather stuborn.

C comes back shortly and throws the thick comforter over by back. Not long after this C is in the car driving us to the nearest hospital, whilst B sits in the back with me and holds me tightly. I let my head rest on their shoulder and lean into their warmth. And despite the pain still not getting any better, i feel just a little bit more calm and safe now.

started playing the triangle strategy demo. politics right from the start, excellent. and of course there's royal half siblings am i going to need to draw a family tree? i should probably draw a family tree. let me look this up. why is aesfrost a grand duchy? its a kingdom it has a family line of rulers. being a duchy ruled by a duke means your under someone else but the aesfrosts are ruling independently. wait if both frederica and her siblings were headed to glenbrooke why didnt they go together. yeah they're here for alliance peacetalks, pretty sure frederica's marriage is a part of those dealings. ok im confused. theres 2 international meeting with the nations top delegates. one in that side scene and one in the main story. this is all for the same event right? part tournament part festival part business meeting for mining. but wait no the tournament is in the capital and the mining meeting is in wolffort castle. or maybe they need to meet the king first and then to wolffort? yeah yeah i think thats it

i wonder how old the characters are? im assumming roland, serenoa, and frederica are in the same age group. serenoa comes off as young adult maybe 20? i dont think he's older than 25 or younger than 16. but if erika is younger than frederica and already an international delegate ... wait different mothers so who knows what the age difference is.

i feel kinda bad looting people's houses like here's the lord of the realm taking your pocket change. maybe if i do nother playthrough i'll leave it alone but for now i want to see if i pick up anything interesting.

things worked out for fredrica huh left a place that didnt want her and entered a place that doesnt scorn her for her heritage.

why was the feast held in wolffort? dragan and.... the other one didnt have house wolffort specific business did they? or is the mining operation headed on the glenbrooke side by wolffort? i missing some simple link. why hold a feast for the joint mining venture when most of the players are in the capital. oh lyla and symon are friends that explains it

hmm i had assumed roland and serenoa were old friends given they are part of the two most important families in the kingdom but if serenoa doesnt know hugette, either she is new, serenoa didnt come to the capital much or his friendship with roland is a more recent thing but no even then as the heir to wolffort he should be familiar with the kingsguard.

uhhhhhh my one weakness.... remembering names... who are all you people? this is why i'd be a terrible politician irl.

i learned why aesfrost is a duchy.

where does the river go? these 3 nations are land locked but a river that big probably runs out to sea and that would solve the salt monopoly. or are they really like dead center of eurasia.

roland's my favorite character so far. the only orher character ith significant screentime is frederica and im neutral ln her. serenoa seems ok.

i like this voting system. ah yes the racist theocracy and the other dictatorship that hates us. i chose the unlocked option every time. im unsure if the unlocked one is always the right answer or if it just presents another option but i convinced everyone i tried. and because i wanted more dialogue i convinced people both ways for funsies so minus frendrica and .... the wolffort arms master guy... e-ed something who were like talking to a wall i switched everyone else. you want to go to hyzante? no you dont. you want to go to aesfrost? what you actually want is hyzante. its fun.

i do like how racism against the roselle is portrayed so far. its based on a superficial (racialized) characterisic. "everyone is equal in hyzante except for the roselle" yeh that tracks. good worldbuiling in the sense that theres not a good nation with pure and good traditions and an evil nation with twisted barbaric traditions.

in general i've liked how the choices have been done so far often times im like mmmmm all 3. ive been choosing so far based on a mix of personal opinions and what is most diplomatic for the specific person im talking to sooo what ever i feel is best as nebulous as that is. for example with the hierofant about the mining venture i think its a stopgap measure but i do hope it works and can help build fair and peaceful relations. i chose the fair profit option tho because we are in hyzante which prides itself on its measures to increase equality.

is frederica having second thoughts about coming? shes the one that wanted to come most strongly and not only that both her and greeta's arguments were "do it for ferderica". if she did this much to go she should have prepared herself.

ooooh i want the full game now. i wonder how i can get i on sale... eh gamestop has 5$ off wonder if black friday would get me a better deal

Stay: Green Light (A)

Pairing: Jisoo x Male OC (feat. Rosé & Lisa)

Summary: Jisoo didn’t know why he’d ended things and she tried to convince herself she didn’t want to know. What she wanted to know was if she could ever be happy without him again...

Length: 1.8k + texts

A/N: Listen to this while you read! @blackinkfics This has been a year in the making and I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to get to a point where I felt comfortable enough to post it. I’m also sorry that this is how far I’ve gotten in all this time, but I hope it lives up to your expectations. Ily~ #LongLiveJJ

Jamal POV

Eyes closed and music blaring, Jisoo inhaled deeply. As the crescendoing bass line reverberated through the air and surged through her chest, she willed her heart to pound along steadily with the beat. It was a trick he had taught her during a long forgotten lesson, yet she practiced it religiously through every rehearsal, evaluation, and performance. She wasn't a natural dancer but allowing the syncopated rhythms to flow through and guide her body as she moved allowed her to easily make up for it as she carefully executed each move. Song after song, 8-count after 8-count, Jisoo drilled the choreography until she could barely stand, her body quaking with exhaustion and chest heaving with exertion.

Vaguely, she recognized the warmth spreading through her already torched skin. She slowly registered the size of the fingertips resting against her shoulders; and though she would never let it show, the bitter ache of disappointment pinged through her that the hand was not the large one she had become so accustomed to, but instead much smaller and much more slender. Jisoo glanced up to meet the eyes, widened in concern, of her precious Lisa. "I'm fine, LaLa!" she chirped. She grinned at the younger and reached up to ruffle her sweat slick bangs.

"I don't believe you," Lisa huffed as she flicked the elder's wrist away from her. "You only practice this hard when you're stressed."

"I'm not stressed." Jisoo pushed off the wall and shrugged, swinging her arms across her chest as she began to stretch her aching limbs. "I just want to be as good of a dancer as you."

Lisa pouted, "Don't deflect!"

"I'm telling the truth," Jisoo insisted before she took a swig of her water. That only earned her a look of distrust and discontentment. "Hey! Don't stare at me like that! We both know how many countless hours you grinded through to get to where you are. I want to be that way too."

Lisa sighed. She could only push as far as the other would let her and clearly there wasn't much room left. "Swear on chicken?"

Crossing her heart, the elder affirmed, "And pizza."

"Okay, then I'm going to head home now. You wanna ride together?"

Jisoo shook her head. "Nah, I'm not done here yet. Don't worry, mom, I won't stay here all night." With a roll of her eyes and a dramatic huff, Lisa conceded and left the dance studio, leaving Jisoo back where she started.

Alone.

Staring ahead at the back of a door, the clear image of the back of the head of someone she loved just having slipped through it. But it wasn't her member's head pressed into the surface of her corneas. Jisoo turned on her heel to face the mirror, shut her eyes, and exhaled sharply. "Channel it," she commanded herself as she unclenched a fist to turn the music up, once again surrendering herself to the frantic rhythms.

Her frenzied trance was broken when the music abruptly died. Another steadying hand--closer to the size she had become so accustomed to but still not the hand she knew not to expect--loosely gripped her shoulder. "Time to go home, dear," her manager said sweetly. Dripping in sweat, she wordlessly nodded her head and set about cleaning the studio.

When she was finished, her body was howling with fatigue. Normally she wouldn't have to ask to be helped out, but he wasn't there to carry her. Doing things on her own now--that was her new normal. No one but her was there to pick her exhausted limbs and aching heart up and carry her. She had to do for herself now. "Only the weak," she chided herself quietly as she grabbed her stuff. Her manager lifted a questioning brow, but she simply shook her head in response. Now it was her turn to walk through that door, leaving a little chunk of her broken-hearted burden behind as she went.

The kaleidoscope of brilliant neons pulsating overhead filtered darkly through the tinted windows of the company car as it zoomed along the streets. Jisoo stared listlessly at them, her mind far too exhausted to pay them the standard amount of awe she normally gave them. Vaguely, she could hear the excited chirps of a brighter girl passionately gush over the pretty lights while a smooth, deep, warm chuckle floated through her ears and curled within her stomach. She shook her head and turned away from the window. Someday the flashing green and pink and red and orange lights would bring her the same joy they once did. Someday, she'd coo over them just like that bright girl did all those moons ago. Someday when she could let these minuscule but impactful memories go. "Someday," she whispered softly.

But for now, she was content with letting herself finally pull up his contact information on her phone. She didn't expect an immediate response from him by any means; honestly, she hoped he wouldn't read it for a week or two. Yet she knew she needed him to respond relatively soon so her courage wouldn't fade. Pressing on the picture-less circle next to his name, she tapped out a very cut-and-dry question. "Keep it simple, keep it emotionless," Jennie's sage advice floated through her head and tumbled out of her mouth as she hit 'send.’

Closing her eyes, she rested her head against the cool glass of the tinted window, letting the vivid blues and violets and fuschias of the low-hanging neon stars wash over her skin as an outward reflection of the clashing emotions warring in her heart.

Even when she finally made it home, there was still no response from him. She wasn’t hurt, no, she’d vowed that she wouldn’t let herself be hurt by him again. But yet there was still some part of her that had hoped… It didn’t really matter, she decided internally with a huff. They were both two adults with very hectic schedules. He’d respond to her when he got a chance; he certainly wasn’t cowardly enough to run from her text messages at least (phone calls and voicemails were an entirely different story). She deposited her phone on her bed and pointedly ignored it as she changed into her pajamas after taking a quick shower that had mercifully washed away the remnants of her grueling dance practice off her.

Scooping up Dalgom into her arms, she made her way out to the living room to catch up on the dramas she’d missed earlier in the evening. Chaeyoung, as reliable as ever, was already curled up in the center of the sectional with a heaping pile of snacks laid out on the coffee table before them. “I didn’t know what you wanted and I couldn’t decide so I brought them all,” she sheepishly admitted, nervously tucking a loose lock of hair behind her ear as she blinked owlishly at the elder.

Jisoo couldn’t help the grin that stretched across her face. “My sweet Chaeyoung is far too precious for this world,” she cooed as she plopped down next to the orher girl. Chaeyoung didn’t even try to hide the self-satisfied smile that slipped onto her lips. Instead, she offered up a hard-boiled egg she’d already halfway peeled. Jisoo shifted until Dalgom was nestled comfortably in her lap so she could finish peeling the egg. The pair snacked in comfortable silence as their attention was held captive by the compelling storylines of the episode. As the credits for the episode rolled, Jisoo glanced at the younger to see if she was willing to watch the next episode only to find Chaeyoung sound asleep, nestled in her favorite blanket against a pile of pillows. Jisoo smiled sweetly at her sleeping friend. “Time to go to bed, Dalgomie,” she whispered to the little ball of fluff curled in her lap. Carefully, she slowly slithered off the couch and turned off the lights before making her way to her room.

Her phone glowed ominously in the darkness. An unexpected sense of dread washed over her as gingerly lifted it up. Dalgom stirred slightly in her arms, turning to rest his head against her chest as if to reassure her that he was always there for her. Jisoo leaned down to snuggle her beloved pup for a brief moment while she gathered all her confidence to unlock her phone.

A straightforward, simple answer that was as emotionless as her inquiry. Honestly, it was somewhat a relief he’d only responded with a single word. More words meant more time spent overthinking what he meant or how many times he’d attempted to respond to her or how she should respond next or how many times she had to grip and regrip her phone as her fingers trembled a little too much for her liking. “No.” She could work with this. Quickly, before she could even begin to think of overthinking her answer, she tapped out her response and hit send. She didn’t even wait to hear the tell-tale swoosh that indicated her message had actually been sent before she locked her phone.

Pulling back the covers, Jisoo crawled into her bed, its familiar softness grasping greedily onto every inch of her tired body was a welcomed distraction from the dinging of her phone. She rolled over to snatch up her phone after she gently placed Dalgom on his pillow. “Keep it simple, keep it simple,” she repeated like a sacred mantra as she once more unlocked her phone. “Singapore?” she questioned to the still night air hanging like a heavy, dark blanket over her room. Why was he in— “Oh, duh. Tour,” she mumbled as she left her fingers speak for her to him. He responded almost immediately, his next message getting straight to the point:

Well, that was a loaded question. What she wanted was for Stephen Hawking or whatever extraordinarily brilliant man to build a time machine that would allow to go back in time and stop him from ending things with her. Or maybe she could spare herself all the trouble and just erase the first time she ever saw him. Or maybe she wanted to travel back and tell her past self to really cherish every moment she’d spent with him. Or just, at the very least, fast forward to a time where she was no longer heartbroken over him. She just wanted to feel something than the empty heaviness that had burrowed itself so deep in her heart, she was quite certain it had become a blackhole in the very center of her being. But that was a mystery for some physicist to figure out. In the meantime, she had to figure out how to tell him that she wanted to give him back the few things of his she’d somehow wound up having in her possession without revealing to him that the only reason she wanted to give it all back was so she wouldn’t have physical reminders of the ache in her battered heart.

Jisoo groaned loudly and flopped down into her pillows. Dalgom perked up a little as she berated herself, “Stupid, stupid, stupid!” Why did she say that? Why? Of course, he wouldn’t want to talk later. They were broken up. After she returned his things, that would be the very end of their...everything. Jisoo scrubbed madly at her eyes, willing herself not to cry. She’d shed enough tears for him. She would find some way to move on, she resolved as she pulled the covers up to her chin. But for now, she needed to focus on getting some much needed sleep. Maybe when she woke up tomorrow morning, her heart would hurt less...

Kyuranger 13-19 thoughts (Spoilers)

Well this is a bit contradictive after what I wrote a few days ago, I use to do these to speak for myself on what I felt about these series, I guess the negativity I’ve been seeing on the fandom has really soured my interest in these (heck a guy I know kept getting threats over not liking this series even when he tries to explain why he doesn’t like it), but I feel everyone has a right to express their opinions on (mostly) anything. but enough about that rambling, Last Time: we get some small backstory on Lucky and an understanding of why he is the way he is, but ends up feeling like nothing happened, meanwhile a new foe appears and is after someone he knew. Kyuranger for me has so far been a 1 step forward, 3 steps back. It has great suits for both rangers, mecha and Kaijin, but the wonky pacing and poor writing choices made it hard for me to get invested in these characters. if I were to rate this so far, it would be my third least favorite Sentai, but it still has some time to get itself up, it’s nearing the early 20′s, can this show get itself to be decent in my eye or will it just be another unpopular opinion of mine? let’s find out.

Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger episode 13:

A few people try to plea for Jark Matter, Scorpio decides he’s had enough and stings them all with his venom, making them violent zombies. Meanwhile Kotaro is about to be sent off to get some training.

The Kyurangers investigate and fight the zombies, but Hammy gets infected, they knock her out and retreat. Scorpio remembers when Don gave him his ultimate form. making him their assassin.

The other give them the antidote and Stinger explains that this was his brother’s doing as well as the one that killed Anton. They go around to give the antidote while Champ feels conflicted about what he heard.

Xiao explains how he met Stinger and it encourages Champ to trust Stinger, they transform and fight the zombie Indavers, one grows and a Moraimarz Robo appears but are defeated by Ryutei Kyuren-Oh.

Scorpio watches and kills off one of the zombie Indaver’s, looking forward to seeing Stinger again. They wish Kotaro good luck on his training, while Champ and Stinger are now partners.

Next Time: Garu’s unlucky day

Overall I found this episode to be interesting, we get to see what Scorpio is capable of, able to kill/ make people violent with his venom and see how he got his Kaijin form. which is infact really awesome. I’ve heard rumors on what they might do with this character and I’m hoping they don’t go that route, because this series really needs a villain like this to bring more stakes, there’s a reason the Dethgaliens are some of my favorite villains back in Zyuohger, they showed how much of a threat they were that when they were defeated, it felt satisfying, where as here, it feels like a breeze beating these supposed ‘galaxy conquering villains’. I did like how they decided to let Kotaro leave to get training, we have too many characters in this series that need some development and backstories explored, but I will miss Kotaro until he comes back, probably around the 30′s. Though it was a small scene and despite my distaste for the character, I did like how Lucky gave Champ and Stinger his weapon to fight off the Zombie Indaver’s, which was actually well choreographed. If there’s one issue I had, it would be how they rushed the reveal of Scorpio being the one who killed Dr. Anton and how Champ decides to be buddy buddy with Stinger a few moments later, it took them this long to resolve that subplot and the execution felt weak, such as Stingers reason for not telling because he felt it wouldn’t make a difference, which I think it would, especially since you have Xaio who was aware of your situation and would backup your reason (and also the fact that he’s getting his own V-cinema cause the main series has too much to explore most of their backstories). Then their’s Champ quick forgiving of Stinger, while I did like how he was furious at Stinger for keeping the truth a secret and how Xiao somewhat explained that Stinger isn’t sure of what he wants to do, I think they could’ve given them another episode to flesh this out more. Other than that, I don’t hate this episode.The next episode looks interesting, where Garu feels down, they infiltrate a building, disguised as it’s employees while the others find a way the hostages.

Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger episode 14:

The Kyurangers go on many missions, minus Garu since he isn’t chosen, now feeling unlucky. Ewteijan imprisons people for trying to afford any luxury and enters his palace.

The’ye are given the mission to infiltrate as servants and get Ewteljan’s remote while also finding the prisoners. They give him suchi to distract him, but Garu presses the wrong button and the others falls in a trap.

They try magic tricks to entertain him, but it doesn’t work. Then Xiao gives them the idea of dancing, which doesn’t work either, then Xiao gives Garu a Kyutama to dress a woman to flirt with Ewteljan.

It works and the others find the prisoners, Garu finds the right button and frees them, They fight Ewteljan and he summons Moraimarz Robo, only to be both beaten byt the Kyurangers and Ryutei-Oh.

Balance took a Tamatebako from the palace, which scares the others since opening it causes people to age older, he opens it and is blasted with smoke, he now feels 400 old.

Next Time: The Beach episode.

Overall I surprisingly liked this episode, from the preview, I was expecting some cringey humor since the previous episode’s attempt at humor felt forced and not well executed, but after watching it, I was honestly surprised, granted not all of them were winners but I did manage to get a good chuckle and it managed to do something that the previous episodes haven’t, make me smile, this episode managed to make me smile, cause of how entertainingly bad it was, but it knew that and went with it. I liked that Garu got be the focus in this episode, since I enjoyed this character and I liked how he got some small development as well as a callback to him encouraging Lucky to get back on his feet and now it’s the other way around, this was mostly well thought out. Speaking of Lucky, I was so glad that he was the foil to Garu’s mishaps, every time he pressed the wrong button, it activates a trap door, sending Lucky (and Spada) back outside. Like I said, some of the humor was hit and miss, but when it hits, it’s definitely works. The next episode looks interesting, where the Kyurangers go to a beach planet to help it’s people from being decived by Jark Matter as well as save a girl from being sacrificed.

Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger episode 15:

The Kyurangers go to the Vela system to get it’s Kyutama and enjoy their beaches, they arrive only to see that it’s a mess, Martha sees Gonessy admit he tricked the villagers into believing he’s a savior.

she gets noticed and the Kyurangers rescue her. They follow her to her village and see the Kyutama, then Nessie appears and they offer him a meal, Martha hesitates to tell the truth, so Nessie wants her sacrificed.

They try to protect her but are now seen as their enemy. Martha explains how it all started, but was shy to tell them, which reminded Hammy or herself when she was young and warned her mentor.

They devise a plan to reveal that Gonessy isn’t their savior, they transform and fight the Malistate, defeating him with Kyuren-Oh. Martha gives them the Kyutama as a way to thank them.

On Earth, Stinger and Champ investigate Scorpio’s whereabouts, they find his ship and try to sneak in, only for him to find them. Stinger is shocked at what his brother’s become. To be continued......

Next Time: A dark family reunion.

Overall I found this episode to be meh, it does have it’s good moments, such as Hammy getting some backstory and the subplot of Stinger and Champ looking for Scorpio. but other than that the rest of the episode was pretty lackluster. it was cool seeing them progress in finding the Vela Kyutama to get the Argo Kyutama, though it was dumb that the villagers have the Kyutama out in the open, which Gonessy and the Indaver’s could’ve taken, I mean most of Jark Matter should know who the Kyuranger’s are at this point and what they’re power source is, so Gonessy could’ve use his manipulation on the people to get the Kyutama from them. While I did enjoy Hammy’s small backstory, I wish it had more focus, since this was suppose to be her focus episode. I also didn’t like how Naga barely did anything in the episode and when he did, it made the situation worse, which sucks cause I really enjoy this character. Can’t wait for the next episode, where Champ and Stinger confront Scorpio, Kyuren-Oh battle another Deathworm ans Scorpio takes off his mask to reveal something.

Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger episode 16:

Stinger ans Champ fight Scorpio, Madako joins in, but is stung by Scorpio. He leaves leaving a card for Stinger Madako is revived and wonders what Scorpio’s up to. The others are heading back frp, the Vela system.

Stinger decides to follow the card’s directions, much to Champ’s dismay. Scorpio tells Madako that he plans to kill Don Armage. They meet again and Scorpio explains that he was forced to kill his people for loyalty.

Champs still wants revenge for Dr. Anton, then a Deathworm appears and Champ fights it while the orhers escape. Scorpio asks Stinger to join him in stopping Jark Matter, but refuses since he has his own group.

Stinger explains what his team is looking for and Scorpio let’s the Deathworm attack him. Madako takes on the others and explains that Scorpio wants to control the universe for himself.

Lucky and the others beat the Deathworm with Kyuren-Oh. Stinger asks for his brother to kill him, but Champ takes the blow instead, Xiao tells Stinger to send Champ to the Rebellion HQ to repair him.

Next Time: Kyuranger Sun and Moon (now on 3DS)

Overall I found this episode to be interesting, thank you Scorpio for giving me some hope for this series since you are a legitimate threat that brings some tension to this series, especially with his motive of wanting to kill Don Armage and taking over the universe, I do hope he stays longer and becomes the big bad or maybe Jark Matter can actually show that they’re competent villains in beating Scorpio, either way, they better give me more reasons to care. I did like how Scorpio tricked them into believing that he was a spy trying to stop Jark Matter and was forced to do all those terrible things to his people and Dr. Anton, only for it to be a complete lie, thank you for not going the route I expected to go,but you’re not out of the park just yet. I do feel bad for Madako , she gets killed off and revived as this very seductive character, honestly she deserves better writing than what she’s gotten. I’m kind of conflicted on the ending, it’s pretty cool that they actually went there, but it almost feels like they’re just trying to do what that other series tried to do in it’s series (you know the one) with it’s character a few months ago, though because of that and that this show’s pacing and choices were poorly done, I sadly don’t feel as invested in this as I should, by this point in other Sentai shows, I find myself more invested with the characters by this point, not so much here, but I do feel that it’s a step in the right direction from here on out. The next episode looks interesting, where the Kyurangers face an enemy they can’t see, they test a new Kyutama which has two features and Lucky gets a new power up (again)

Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger episode 17:

Garu wants to find the Carins Kyutama and is sick of Balance taking this so easily. Xiao tells them their next mission is to a dome of darkness, they enter and now it’s daytime and find civilians that had 2 hours of sleep.

They want to find this guy, but are beaten by Shaidows, who they can’t see and sent flying in different directions. Lucky calls the Malistate weak and is sent flying. Elsewhere, Balance notices a camera nearby.

Kotaro sends them the Shining Kyutama while explaining Champs condition. The others regroup and devise a plan to lure Shaidow out, then Balance reveals that he attacks from their shadows.

Xiao arrives to give them the Kyutama to counter Shaidow and Balance get’s fired up, tossing Lucky to destroy the ship. He tests out the lunar mode and Garu get’s a boost of power while Lucky is calmer.

They beat Shaidows but he grows giant, so he’s defeated using Ryutei-Oh. They celebrate and Garu apologizing to Balance for what he said earlier. Elsewhere, Scorpio tells Madako to look for a Kyutama

Next Time: Movie Crossover Tie-In

Overall I found this episode to be interesting, I enjoyed the Monster of the weeks way of fighting, which was actually pretty clever. I also liked how Lucky was mostly a punching bag this episode, how he always ends up calling out Shaidow, only to get sent flying afterwards, it’s very satisfying. Now to talk about the Shining Kyutama, dig the power but I hate the form, but I guess they had to make it that way to save their budget, but I did like how using it empowers the others with an extra boost, with Solar being hot headed while Lunar is more clear headed. If there’s one thing I didn’t like, it would be that this episode needed more focus on Garu and Balance’s conflict, since they weren’t getting along early in the episode and it’s brushed off in a few minutes. The next episode looks interesting, where Madako steals one of the Kyutama’s, a few familiar faces appear to arrest the Kyuranger and things go crazy as Gavan and the Dekaranger’s arrive.

Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger episode 18:

The Kyurangers go after Madako, who stole the Pysix Kyutama and are caught near a black hole. They enter another world as Ban assumes they’re a threat. Madako is confronted by Geki, who helps her up.

Lucky and Naga find Madako, who tells Geki that they’re bad guys and he battles them as Gavan Type G. The others are surprised on how this world is until they’re arrested by Umeko and Sen-chan for trespassing.

Naga tries to stop it, but gets knocked out. The Kyuranger’s explain their situation and Boss understands. Madako takes the Dolgiran and Geki gets her out, but she tries to blast them, Then Dekared arrives to help

He informs them that their way back is beginning to close, so they’re willing to help them out. Madako summons a Deathworm and they transform to fight them and re-obtain the Kyutama.

The Deathworm grows and both Ryu Voyager and Dol defeat it, They enter the wormhole in time. Elsewhere, Stinger takes off his Star Saizer and wears his old garb again. To be continued....

Next Time: Spirit of the forest.

Overall I felt this episode was interesting, it was nice seeing the Dekarangers and Gavan Type G return, which makes sense given that they’re crossover movie came out recently and from what I’ve heard, it’s pretty good. I liked most of it’s humor, such as them believing Garu and Boss/Doggie Kruger are related, it was an obvious choice and they went all out with it. I also liked how before Lucky was about to summon Kyuren-Oh, Geki shoves him aside to summon the Electronic Starbeast Dol. But sadly not even the neat referenced or nostalgia can save most of the issues I have, such as the Kyurangers not knowing what Police are, they’re universe is similar to this one, you’d think they’d have some history one what they are, some could argue that Jark Matter was conquering the most of the Galaxy for many years, but I feel they’d probably at least had some form of history on it. I’m a bit iffy on the whole 'this series is in a different universe’ since it means them appearing in later crossovers would just feel out of nowhere, but then again continuity isn’t the strongest in Toku. Another issue I have is that what happened to Madako after they defeated her, did they manage to get her back to her world or did they leave her? I’m hoping this get’s answered in the next episode. +The next episode looks interesting, where they asks a mysterious young lady is she knows where the Carina Kyutama is, Scorpio appears and they battle him.

Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger episode 19:

Many Consumarz are heading to Earth, which means they need to find Argo quickly, so they head to Keel to get the last Kyutama, but they aren’t the only ones. The others get word of Stinger and hope he’s alright.

On Keel, they see it’s people under the rule of Olmega, they free the civilians and are warned of a fearsome guaridiian. They encounter the guardian Eris, who takes a liking to Spada.

She was told to give the Kyutama to a savior, but Scorpio takes the Kyutama and fights the Kyuranger. On the Orion, Stinger takes the other Kyutama’s. Scorpio stings Olmega and orders him to kill the civilians,

They go after him while Lucky fights Scorpio and regains the Kyutama, but he captures Eris to make a wager, which he had no choice but to do it. Eris is mad until she begins to see a bit of Sir Orion in him.

They beat Olmega, but he grows and it defeated by Kyuren-Oh. Eris reveals that they’re were saviors before them. Scorpio sees that Stinger arrived with the other Kyutama’s, only to take him on. To be continued.....

Next Time: The ultimate sibling rivalry

Overall I found this episode to be quite meh. there were some decent moments, such as Scorpio doing what he does best, bring the stakes and always one step ahead of the Kyurangers. I also liked how we did get some world building in that they’re were previous saviors before them and one of them being Orion (which is what their ship is named after, so I feel that’ll come into play later). I also enjoyed the subplot with Stinger breaking into the Orion to take the two Argo Kyutama’s (Stinging Garu and Raptor in the process) and planning to lure Scorpio so he can finish him off. But the rest of it was pretty bland. Eris seemed interesting, till they made her a damsel and pulling the whole ‘he reminds me of someone I knew’ cliche (which isn’t a bad thing if done right, which it wasn’t). Halfway through the year and I feel as though this series is slowly heading in the right direction, but I don’t feel as invested as I should be. Like I said, this series is 1 step forward, 3 steps back because of the poor choices it makes, while I don’t consider it to be a “series that ruins Sentai/Worst Sentai ever” or any of that BS, I don’t see this series being in my top 10 anytime soon. The next episode looks interesting, where Stinger takes on Scorpio, Kotaro returns with the team, Stinger is not feeling like himself and now they must stop Scorpio.

Do You Feel Safe in New Orleans?

Earlier this year Mayor Mitch Landrieu announced a $40 million investment in public safety. That money’s being spent on things like surveillance cameras, brighter LED fixtures in the French Quarter, and enforcing the Alcohol & Beverage outlet code. This got the crew of The Listening Post thinking about how effective those investments are and whether people feel safe in their city. So:

1. How safe are you feeling as you move around New Orleans these days? Where do you feel safe in the city? What places do you try to avoid or tell others to avoid?

• Safe if I'm in certain areas. Uptown, garden district, most of mid-city, touristy areas, lake view, parts of gentilly i feel safe. I tell people to avoid central city (my car got broken into there once as well as hearing gunshots mid-day; I used to work in the area as a social worker), I also would tell people to avoid upper and lower ninth ward, parts of treme, st Claud, and French quarter at times

• I stayed in Nola because every strange street I walked down felt like home.

• I still feel comfortable whenever I move through New Orleans and there is not a place in the city I would advise anyone to avoid save the French Quarter—not for safety concerns but I find the press of people and the tourist's prurient behavior distasteful.

• I don't feel safe in no parts. I just go where I need to go and go back home. The crime is crazy

• I have felt safe in all places that are fairly well populated. Daytime is no worries. Certain areas I do not travel alone at night

• On the whole I feel as Safe as I've always felt but I do find myself giving my environment a double look, especially if I'm alone or in an area I'm not accustomed to.

• Pouring money into policing makes me feel even closer to the center of this orwellian nightmare we live in. I feel safe in places where there is strong, long standing community. i feel the most unsafe in rapidly gentrifying neighborhoods.

• I don't feel safe uptown nor in Mid City. I don't feel any safer since Landrieu became mayor. His genuine support of NOPD seems vacant. He has let them down I feel. How can you do your job when your boss doesn't trust or support you

• Haven't felt safe since the Pizza Kitchen murders. It can happen literally anywhere, at anytime. Still would not want to live anywhere else in America, though.

• I feel much safer when I see the police walking or driving or walking around. I feel unsafe when I am the one they are pulling over. It's kind of like they are on the hunt for something wrong.

• I feel safe during the day at work or in my home with locked doors. I do not feel safe in public at night. I would tell others to avoid anywhere after mid night without many other people around. Avoid neighborhoods that you do not live in that have historically higher number of crimes committed.

• the system is violent.

• Yes that's funny u asked it is scary as hell I just moved out of a 75% Good neighborhood Gentilly at least the area I was in ,due to house 🏡 sale and it's a huge concern because I'm not sure where in the city I would be some what safe so I'm seriously thinking of St Bernard parish

• Feel the same - not much difference from several years ago. Crime seems to come in waves.

• I know crime is an issue but I don't feel any less safe than before. My neighborhood seems safer than it was 10 or 15 years ago.

• We just had a bunch of shootings.....that were not in the quarter.....Honestly, I just think Mitch is nuts!!! People died and he is more concerned that the building was not registered as a night club

• I feel safer when NOPD are present in my immediate area. I try to be careful wherever I go. I try to avoid dark, deserted or almost deserted areas. I also try to go places in a group.

• I'm more afraid of the cops. I feels safe in my hood. -Rodneka❤️

• Anywhere downtown above Rampart after dark

• I don't feel any more safe now than I did pre-Katrina Gentilly is still about the safest IMO. I avoid the East at night for safety purposes.

• I dont feel safe anywheres in this city, I avoid all parts of it and am trying to move out, just last Fri night my neighbors son was murdered on Tulane ave. Not far from the orleans parish jail. Plus 1 orher, this place is out of touch , a rip off , and as dangerous as any place in the world, and as far as a city so small thiers no excuse whatsoever, and people are pass tired of all the same ole excuses.

• I do not feel safe moving around the city. I only feel safe inside my home. I avoid all places in New Orleans when the sun goes down.

• I feel safe most of the time. But I'm cautious about where I park my car, even in the daytime. I never carry cash either. That eases my anxiety.

• I don't feel safe anywhere in the city except my own home, sometimes --- there was a drive-through the neighborhood shoot out a couple years ago that ended in front of my house. At this point I'm considering moving.

• Less safe than ever. Feel safe in stable neighborhoods. Avoid known trouble areas, the French Quarter after midnight.

• I don’t go anywhere without my pit

• I feel safe, but crime uptown is skyrocketing

• That stretch of Tulane with the recent shooting. I'm also always tense in the quarter, but that's less physical worry and more stress about people trying to Mess With Me.

• I don't feel safe, unless I'm at home with alarm system on. I tell people to avoid being out past 9 pm

2. Tell us about a time you felt unsafe in New Orleans, what did you do about it?

• I was in the French quarter on the night of Halloween a few years ago when 13 people were shot and the bar we were in shut the doors and we were temporarily on lock down until the situation was stabilized, my car was also broken into and windows busted while working in central city as a social worker, also heard gunshots while in central city working at 4:30 in the afternoon, in all cases I quickly vacated the scene. With my car, I just drove out of the neighborhood with busted glass because I didn't want to stay in the area and risk further harm

• I felt unsafe when I came out and found my car broken into. I called the police and asked to have them meet me at home.

• When the guy drove Thur the Mardi gras parade on st. Charles. I'm not going to any more parades after that day.

• Once when intoxicated I was on a small side street outside the quarter at night and just moved to a more populated area

• I had to pick up my son in the middle of the night in another part of town. Just kept my eyes Scanning the road and the doors locked. It was while waiting in the parking lot that I felt the most vulnerable. I just stayed focused in the present and waited. With the motor running.

• I never walked outside after 9 pm. Uptown nor Mid City • People are shot simply driving on the interstate, so when DON'T you feel unsafe?

• I felt unsafe when a car full of men pulled alongside of me, one hopped out and yelled "Give it up" and fired a bullet toward my that whizzed past my face and lodged into my dashboard.

• for profit prisons are grotesque

• Feeling unsafe in New Orleans now is like normal because u have to stay alert be very observant be aware of your surroundings keep eye contact with strangers who may look like they may harm u it's just crazy because u never know inside of your car r outside I just say my prayers pray I'm not the next victim but I'm always seeking ways I can help others not be victims also.

• Several times felt unsafe on a bicycle, primarily in areas where blight is an issue (Central City). Avoid areas at certain times of day or avoid them altogether. Communicate with neighbors regularly. Also participate in Nextdoor.

• A kid jumped me and stole my phone on Mardi Gras day. Because he was small, I fought him back. It was frightening and very stressful. I called the police but because it was Mardi Gras the incident was a low priority

• All the nonsense w the statues made me feel uneasy.....

• I don't feel safe coming home late by myself. So I call home and have some one open the door for me.

• Actually someone was shot during the day by Galvez

• My mom got robbed at the K&B on Broad and Esplanade in the 90s. It just reminded me from then on to be aware of my surroundings.

• I dont feel unsafe because I know how dangerous it is here and dont go a lot of places here much.

• Occasionally in my neighborhood Uptown crime is sporadic and consistent. I inform neighbors on our neighborhood website and they do as well to stay vigilant at all times.

• A group of drunk teenagers verbally harassed my wife outside the House of Blues. Reacting would only escalate things so we pretended not to hear and got out of there.

• Pre-Katrina, rampant drug dealing, animal abuse and Gina in the neighborhood. Shooting celebrations on holidays that sent bullets in my home and neighbors' home. Tried to sell me he house, then storm happened. Moved out of state. Returned uptown in 2014 and really don't go out much. Call cops regularly and installed cameras on my house.

• I was walking across the street at night and these bright lights were in my eyes so I squinted. The driver said that he was going to kill me for the look I gave him.

• Ran away.

• Drive-by Shooting a few blocks from my house. I heard it happen. Woke me up. Two days later I walked over to street where it happened and asked people how they're doing. That made me feel better

3. When you see the police, do you feel more safe or less safe?

• Slightly more safe

• When I see the police, my reaction depends on whether or not I'm driving (nervous) or at home or out and about (curious)

• I felt safe but it was too late

• Tough question. Depends on the situation

• More safe. Although as a northern transplant (who's been here over 20 years) I still get nervous. Because they could not like my answer or attitude and pull me over and/or in. But whenever I've had an accident (fender vender) I feel safe with them. And when I marched with women and then for science I felt they were there to protect us.

• Safer

• Shootings have happened in police presence, nothing's a deterrent.

• police are class enemies

• Ummm I do sometimes but we will always as citizens out number our police 👮 So more police presence will help but I do not believe it's the solution to our violent epidemic

• More safe. However they need to get out of their cars and walk the neighborhoods!!!

• More safe

• I avoided the areas

• I feel indifferent towards police as far as safety is concerned. I have cop friends, but I sometimes wonder if I'm being profiled if I'm in certain areas.

• Much less, they queston the people who call more than the predators, so it makes you not call, then they show up a day late, 911 is a joke.

• A little more safe and unfortunately just a little.

• I feel safer when they're around at big events, keeping an eye on everything. I also stopped doing drugs so I have nothing to hide from them.

• Unchanged

• Love my mother, love my father, can't stand the coppers

• It's a different kind of unsafe.

• Less. They're understaffed, and I don't think can help me if I ever needed them
