Chapter 17, In Which You Decide To Die

Read on AO3

Apollonia Saintclair

You'd think Bumby would be seething, but the man was clinically incapable of any emotion. Maybe that's why he had this weird fascination with getting into other people’s heads.

He did say it was a bad idea (a horrendous judgement call, were his exact words) and he was very disappointed (of course, he would no longer be making a million a month off you) at Mr D'Avergnis's impulsive decision.

He made Raul sign a waiver about possible risks to your health and then had his whole team go through your pill regimen while you enjoyed the thought of spitting them out in their grey worn-out faces.

"Until our paths cross again, Mrs Berger," Angus bid adieu as you climbed up the ladder into the private jet.

"Hopefully never," you replied.

He seemed entirely unconvinced.

****

Before you even arrived at the villa, Raul had made sure you fulfilled your promise to him twice over. First in the cramped restroom of the jet, five minutes of you bending over the porcelain sink, his fingers in your hair, as he whispered "Ti amo" repeatedly in your ear (he kept repeating it as if he was trying to understand what that words mean).

Then again in the backseat of the limousine. What started as you taking a nap on Raul’s lap quickly turned into him guiding your head onto his cock. Poor Yurgir (now Yuri, shrunk back to his bulky and grumpy Russian self) tried to focus on the road ahead, hiding behind the black partition.

Luckily for him, he didn't have to focus for too long; there weren't many things you excelled at, but there were some. You completed the task in record time. Raul drifted off into sleep shortly after, and you pondered if there was any way to discreetly remove his cross while he slumbered.

Unfortunately, you didn't come up with a solution before reaching your destination.

***

No one in the villa was happy to see you again.

The villa itself had not changed much; but the things that had changed you did not like. A sudden influx of religious paraphernalia; crucifixes on the walls, the dark wood stark against the pale paint of the villa. A statue of the Virgin Mary in the corner where there used to be an abstract work of art. 

"Feeling better?" said Camilla, her arms crossed, as she saw you in the foyer. 

She looked ever more tired than the last time you saw her.

"I am," you said with a victorious smile. 

"Really?"

"Really," you nodded. "Angus explained some things to me and it all makes perfect sense now. How did you ever explain kissing my hand, Camilla?"

"I've been thinking about it," she said calmly. "Schizophrenogenic environment."

"Huh?"

"Hang out with the crazy, get crazy yourself”.

"Good thing we're all so much better now," you grinned. "Angus fixed me really good. So, was Davos such a flop that Raul turned to God?"

You gave everything around you a pointed look.

"On the contrary," Camilla corrected you sharply. "A huge success. I'm constantly fending off journalists day and night...I guess I underestimated people’s capacity for idiocy... They are making him out to be some kind of messiah figure. Stravinsky's death added to the effect."

"What a strange coincidence, huh?", you asked.

"Mmm-hmm," came Camilla's nonchalant reply.

"I feel so much better now that I know it was not my fault”, you said. “Back there I had this thought that I wished her dead and that was why she had a heart attack."

"Hm-mm," Camilla hummed, slowly backing away from you. "Let's not wish for something like that again, okay?"

"Why not? It's not like anything would actually happen. I am not crazy anymore, remember? I cannot do miracles. I wish, though… I wish…”

You watched as Camilla backed up until she was flush against the wall - a thrill ran through you at her discomfort. 

"Just kidding”, you said. “But honestly, what's with the whole Catholic craze? Is Raul trying to ward something off or is he fully in his Prophet role now?"

"Mmm," was all Camilla offered. 

You waited for more, but the silence continued.

"Good chat," you quipped. "See you around."

***

The confinements of you patient room were extended to a whole villa now, but you had your phone back. You had your phone back and you were free to move around the perimeter, at least. Outside was still off-limits. 

Well, count your blessings.

As you settled down in bed for the evening, you checked the tabloids for the latest gossip; according to them, you disappeared because you were pregnant and Raul was hiding you from the public because.. superstitions or something. Some more unhinged ones wrote you were carrying the new Jesus Christ. 

Clowns.

Next, you searched for “Raphael BG3”. Before you did so, you made sure to hide underneath a blanket, just in case any hidden cameras were watching. It had been far too long since you had seen Raphael’s real face.

Far too long. Where are you, you mouthed at the screen. Where the hell are you? How can I get you back? I miss you.

"Want to play hide and seek?" you heard a deep baritone say. 

CHRIST ON A BIKE! You promptly clicked away and peered from under your blanket.

Yes, of course it was Raul, there to remind you that your never-ending bill was still running. He was getting ready for bed (scandalously early than you expected, not even 10pm), busy unbuttoning his shirt button after button, and he was already giving you The Look. 

Is Raul really forty-seven? Who fucks so much at forty-seven? He should see a doctor, it's not normal. He pulled the blanket off you and looked at your nondescript white t-shirt and plain panties as if you were wearing Agent Provocateur.

Yes, you were definitely about to get fucked. 

Again. 

And again. 

Until you figure out how to get Raphael back. 

Perhaps a ritual to summon the devil? Pentagrams and black candles?

"You're so beautiful," Raul said, pulling down his boxers and giving his erection a few pumps. "I'm delighted to have you back."

You let out a strategic moan as Raul gently guided you onto your back, his index and middle fingers slipping inside you. Not as easily as they used to, that’s for sure.

"You're not wet," Raul said.

Why should you be? Because he showed you his cock?

"…You were always wet before," he continued, a frown on his face. "Even before I touched you. I adored that"

"Pills," was your quick reply. "Side effects. But there's an easy fix."

"Mmhm," he nodded. "Of course."

You were referring to the lubricant, but Raul decided to play the gentleman instead, positioning himself between your knees and planting kisses on your thighs. You ran your fingers through his hair, feeling the gel that kept it slicked back, and clenched it into a fist. 

Not a bad angle, actually. Same hairline, similar foreheads. Yes, great angle. As his tongue circled around your clit, you arched into his mouth, trying your best to relax and go along with it.

Raul looked up at you. Ugh, no, no, wrong eye colour, stop looking, look somewhere else.

"Move your tongue from left to right, horizontally," you asked. "With a bit more force”.

Raul heeded your words. You gave him another critical look, head bobbing as he licked and sucked and moaned. Handsome, yes, more than you cared to admit, more than he deserved, but no, you were not going to come under his tongue for all his efforts.

So you began to strategically time your moans - starting softly, gently, then getting louder - but not too loud. You placed "yeah" and "like that" and "mm, yeah baby" at equal intervals.

He was buying it, you think, looking more and more smug, so you thought it was time to moan a little harder and build up to the final OH YES I AM COMING. You threw your head back and clenched your cunt rhythmically. 

"Brava, mia bella," Raul gasped, the bottom of his face glistening.

Raul wasted no time in climbing on top nd pushing his erection inside you, and you saw red for the second he did which you masked behind “oh, yes, baby” scream.

"Cazzo sì”, he grunted. Crude, but strangely attractive in that Italian mobster sort of way. 

Not that it would help him. That gift Raphael had given you, the pleasure you could achieve by being penetrated, was gone. Completely. You’d have to rub yourself to come underneath Raul (like with any other mortal man), so you resorted to that.

He wedged his knees beneath your thighs to hoist you against his thrusts while his cross swung with each movement; beads of sweat rained down onto you from above. Perhaps you could just yank that cross. Yes, why not. Rip it off and maybe—just maybe—that would liberate Raphael. 

"What are you doing?" Raul stuttered as the gold chain tightened around his neck and he collapsed on top of you. "You want it rougher? No, not in your condition. The doctor said..."

"Fuck Angus," you said, pulling harder, Raul’s reddened, pained face suddenly doing it for you. 

The bloody chain just wouldn't break. 

"Ah, fuck it. Get down on all fours," he said, and you were more than happy to oblige - it was much easier to imagine him as Raphael doing it from behind. He grabbed your hips, clearly venting some pent-up frustrations on you - hair pulling, ass slapping - pounding into you as if he could somehow rid you of Raphael.

Until he slowed down all of sudden.

"…do you remember the night we did coke?" Raul leaned down, his voice full of some intention you could not decipher yet, but definitely nothing good.

Nothing good at all.

"Coke and olanzapine don't mix well," you managed to say between thrusts.

"No, of course not," he snickered. "That's not what I meant. You remember when I tied you up, vibrator in your pussy, and fucked your from behind?"

...yeah, that's not what you remember. 

Having said that, Raul rubbed his wet thumb against your bum. Panic washed over you - God forbid he thought about anal, because today wasn't the day for it.

"No... No... Not today."

Not tomorrow either. Actually, no day was good for anal anymore.

"You loved it last time. You came so hard," he said. "Or is your ass a privilege you only grant the devil?"

His voice took on a cold, metallic tone every time he veered close to the subject of Raphael. 

"No, no. It’s just... the pills messed with my stomach,” you tried to explain yourself. “I don’t want to shit all over the sheets."

"...There's no need for such explicit imagery," Raul chastised before removing his finger. "Fine, when you feel better. God, you cannot imagine all the things I want to do to you when you finally feel better".

You cannot imagine all the things I want to do to you, Raul.

Then he resumed his rhythm and took it up a notch.

"My name”, he said, his fingers digging into your thighs.

"Raul?" You guessed correctly but then realized what he probably wanted something else. “Ah. Raul. Fuck me, Raul. Fuck me, daddy, fuck me hard”.

That’s it, he was coming two thrusts later - then withdrawing as swiftly as he had entered. You didn’t manage to come after all. Teetering close and yet so far, nothing but fog in your brain. You need to flush these damn pills down the toilet.

Raul stretched lazily next to you, looking so satisfied that the urge to punch him was almost overwhelming. 

“Was Raphael better?” he asked in a tone that was meant to sound like he was joking but came off as anything but.

“No”, you said as you looked into the window you once saw Avernus in - you wish you would ever see it again. “You are the best”.

He laid himself on a pillow and snuggled you tight; his face softened, with this slight trace of guilt as he gently stroked your stomach.

“Do you think we should marry in Napoli or Rome, my love?"

“Avernus,” slipped from your lips before you could stop it.

"You mean the lake?" he repeated, slightly confused. "You know, it's actually a beautiful idea. Lakeside wedding in some medieval castle. Yes, I could see that".

drew the Omori party in outfits a little more fit for their adventures than there pj's

explanations, dnd classes, close up's, and Mari & Basil under the cut

Omori is the party's bard, despite looking and acting like a rogue. as both an artist and a poet, i thought bard suited him better. working with his monochrome color palette was a challenge, but i'm really happy with how it turned out. a fun fact is that me wondering where the heck omori was keeping a knife on his person (combined with my horror at him running around deep well in his socks) is what inspired this design series. i'd like to imagine that Mewo is his familiar.

Aubry is a barbarian based on her focus on strong attacks and her ability to channel her anger into large damage. i tried to keep the shaping and color of these designs mostly the same, though obviously more embellished, as she's literally running around barefoot in a nightgown in cannon. sturdy gloves and boots are an adventuring must, and i picked her meteor hammer cause i think it's her coolest weapon. i will never understand why Sweatheart's pillow somehow deals more damage.

Kel is a kind of trickster rouge — he's not great at stealth, but he's got the highest dex of the party and he's not bad at traps. he's got a lot of colors in his shirt which was kind of a challenge, and i really went back and forth on what player class to give him. his pouch is for additional amo, and his gloves are based on archers globes, since he's the only one who uses ranges weapons in the party. if i redoing this, i would might get rid of his undertunic and/or leg wraps. they were added for protection, but i feel they're mostly just cluttering up the design.

lastly, Hero is a paladin, based both on his healing abilities and his knight in shining armor energy. i picked pink as his accent color cause it contrasted best while still remaining in the omori pallet. his pj's were the hardest to match into a proper adventurer's outfit, so Hero's armor is largely independent of his canon design. the rose on his chest is a reference to his charming personality, the chivalry expected of knights, and his flower from basil's garden. it's also there to fill space, as his design was looking a little to plain otherwise. his kitchen knife is gold to match his little sparkles and to avoid having it blend too deeply into his armor.

Basil definitely has some strong "your princess is in another castle vibes, so that's what i went with for his outfit. he's got his classic flower crown, and i tried to put as much plant imagery as possible into his dress. i switched the princes gloves for gardening ones in his redesign, as well as changing how the dress layered so the lacing didn't run all the way down the garment. the frills on his sleeves and hem are designed to look like petals!

last but not least it's Mari! i've kind of got two versions of her, but i do very much like both. first, i drew her as a wizard, based a little bit on gandalf's habit of showing up, lending the party a helping hand before disappearing to do "important wizard stuff." she's important and helpful when she shows up, but ultimately, the party has to do things on their own. her spell component pouch and her staff both have her picnic basket theming added, as it's symbolic of her healing abilities and the safety she provides the party.

the other version i drew of her leaned more towards cleric based on her role as healer. she'd be a deeply religious figure, possibly having it be revealed later on that she's more powerful than the party knows. i incorporated her picnic pattern here as well, and kept the style of her shoes, since she is literally the only one of the main six who wears them in the dreamscape. like wizard!Mari, her necklace and the ribbon around her head are both callbacks to the ribbon tied around her neck in her original design.

FATHER IN HEAVEN PLEASE, HEAR ME;

"You see the smile that's on my mouth It's hiding the words that don't come out And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed They don't know my head is a mess No, they don't know who I really am And they don't know what I've been through like you do And I was made for you All of these lines across my face Tell you the story of who I am So many stories of where I've been And how I got to where I am"

Desde pequena, Mary-Louise sentia uma presença protetora que a guiava em momentos de incerteza. Ela acreditava que essa voz era de Deus, mas ao descobrir que era Zeus, a conexão se intensificou. Para ela, Zeus é mais que um pai; ele é uma figura divina digna de total devoção e respeito. Com uma fé inabalável, Mary-Louise confia que Zeus, como soberano e pai de todos os deuses, sabe o que é melhor para ela, mesmo nos momentos mais difíceis.

Realiza orações diárias e faz pequenos sacrifícios em honra a Zeus, buscando se conectar espiritualmente e mostrar sua lealdade. Ela vê cada missão e batalha como uma chance de demonstrar sua devoção. As cicatrizes que possui são, para ela, marcas de honra, simbolizando sua disposição de sacrificar tudo pelo bem maior e pela glória dos deuses. Embora sua ligação mais forte seja com Zeus, Mary-Louise mantém profundo respeito por todos os deuses, reconhecendo sua importância e honrando-os em suas ações e pensamentos. Para ela, os deuses são guias e protetores, figuras merecedoras de reverência que mantêm a ordem e o equilíbrio no mundo.

"I need to hear you, u are the light that's leading me to the place where I find peace again." p.o.v. mary-louise.

A presença de Mary-Louise no altar era constante e dedicada. Ela mantinha o local impecável e fazia visitas diárias. A maior estátua era uma majestosa representação de mármore de Zeus, ocupando o lugar de destaque e recebendo a maior quantidade de oferendas. A ruiva limpava o local com esmero, certificando-se de que seu pai tivesse sempre algo belo para contemplar. Nas últimas semanas, dedicara-se a entalhar na madeira a figura de uma águia, símbolo de Zeus. Mesmo com as mãos queimadas, não desistira; sua determinação era tão sólida quanto seu coração.

A construção da cabeça da águia não fora fácil, envolvera lágrimas e literalmente sangue de Mary-Louise. A força empregada para moldar a madeira de carvalho — a preferida de Zeus — inflamava as queimaduras em suas mãos, mas a dor física não a detinha, não quando tinha tanto a agradecer. Estava viva e determinada a expressar sua gratidão.

Naquela manhã, após dormir apenas duas horas, Mary-Louise finalizara os últimos preparativos. Colhera flores e preparara um bolo decorado com pequenas flores brancas e azuis, simbolizando o céu. Trouxera novas velas e um pingente de ouro em forma de raio. Em uma segunda viagem, carregara pedras de lápis-lazúli e um galho robusto de oliveira, uma das árvores preferidas de Zeus.

Ela removeu as oferendas antigas, organizando as novas com reverência, e então se sentou para contemplar o altar. Observando o fruto de seu zelo e dedicação, sentiu-se conectada ao pai divino, certa de que cada esforço era um gesto de seu amor.

"Pai, eu nem sei mais se você tá me ouvindo e... eu de verdade espero que esteja, eu sinto tanto a sua falta, de ouvir sua voz, tudo parece tão fora do natural, eu espero que esteja bem, com todo meu coração. Me desculpe por duvidar e eu juro, estou fazendo o meu melhor para não questionar a sua vontade, eu confio nela, eu confio em você mas nesse exato momento eu não a entendo... o que você precisa de mim? Eu venho tentando buscar por uma resposta pra tudo mas só encontro mais perguntas. Obrigada por poupar minha vida mais uma vez, I hope i can live up to the gift of life you once again gave me, ao menos eu espero que você tenha me ajudado. Você deveria se orgulhar bastante do Raynar, ele puxou bastante de você. Anyways eu nem sei mais o que eu to falando, to só enchendo sua paciência divina, desculpa... Eu te amo, se for da sua vontade por favor, nos ajude a encontrar algum senso no meio de toda essa loucura. Por favor, aceite minha oferta em sinal de minha devoção."

Just seen the Charles x micah's sister reader, very cute :) !! Could we get some headcannons for micah and his sisters relationship? Like do they get along ? Thank you :)

Thank you for requesting, anon! It's a nice spring day. The sun is shining brightly and the mountain looks beautiful. I'm listening to the birds while the deer eat my bushes. This is a perfect day to write some HCs, so let's get to it!

Micah's Younger Sister - Headcannons

- Micah loves his sister but his version of love is very skewed. We know by the stories he tells of Amos he doesn't seem too fond of his brother; however, the letter Amos sends Micah suggests Micah cares enough about his brother, (and thought his brother cares enough about him), to inform him that he was not hanged and that he's doing well.

- This suggest to me that Micah does have some love for his siblings. I think he would really love a little sister. Especially if the age gap is big enough because he can probably easily get her to listen to him and do whatever he wants.

- We know that Micah Bell the II was an awful father. If Micah's sister grows up with him, I can't see Micah ever protecting her from their father's wrath. However, I do think he would offer to teach her how to stand up for herself.

- I view this in more of a 'sibling unity' type of way. He's not doing it to protect her, but because he wants his siblings to be at his level. They grew up the same way and endured the same abuse. I think Micah might feel as if his siblings are the only people on earth who will ever truly understand him.

- He teaches her how to use a gun. Probably buys her a gun specially engraved. Of course, his sister has a wicked quick draw, taught by one of the finest gunslingers.

- I also think Micah would gift her a hat that looks similar to his. It would make him swell like pride to see her in his image.

- They hang out a lot! Neither of them would admit it but they're best friends. His sister is his little buddy.

- It's odd having a brother who doesn't like women but likes you. It fills her with a sense of pride whenever Micah treats her better while simultaneously disgusting her.

- They'll go into town to see a show together every once in awhile or do mundane things like getting their horses shoed or stocking up at the general store.

- Of course Micah's favorite activity to do with his sister is to put her to work so he can rob folk easier. This is all she's even know, so to them it's more like a hobby and they always end up having a blast!

- Micah is clearly very bitter Amos didn't stick by him. After Amos leaves Micah would immediately sink his teeth into his sister, figuring out how to make sure she stays by his side.

- Because of this she ends up in the Van Der Linde gang!

- Micah has ways of being charming. Charming enough to eventually make a massive gang of his own. His sister is much more charming than Micah could ever be. She has a unique perspective on life. Being the youngest child of an outlaw, and a woman in a time where she had no rights. She knows a good sense of humor can be a matter of life or death.

- The SECOND Mary-Beth asks her if she likes to read they're immediately best friends! Micah's sister opens up to the other women of the camp easily and creates fantastic relationships with them.

- Despite being friendly with all the women, Micah's sister would be very weary of the men. Of course, she's probably out robbing with them. Used to violent misogyny all her life, it's much harder for her to connect with them even when she spends so much time amongst them.

- Javier would be the first one she opens up to, I think. And it's his music that lulls her into a sense of security. Every time Javier sits down to play his guitar or sing she comes to sit near him and listen until one day she finally compliments him and they start a very pleasant conversation. It also helps that Javier has befriended many of the women in camp. This helps her trust him more.

- Because she hasn't been treated the best by her father or other outlaws, Micah's sister has more empathy. I also don't think she'd follow Micah's footsteps when it comes to racism.

- Dutch repulses her. She's noticed his lingering eyes. His 'compliments' towards her spoken with hot breath. How many times had she been around men who've looked at her that way? Too many. She tries to avoid him the best she can.

- But Hosea???? She's shocked at how fatherly he is. He's kind, wise, and one of the first people to sit down with her to try and really get to know her. I think Micah's sister would yearn for a father figure who is gentler and more human than her father ever was. She opens up to him and wishes he would replace her father.

- The blow-out fights start when she develops a sense of security within the gang. No longer does she listen to Micah. She stopped dropping everything for his beck and call. She's beginning to form a better sense of self. She's safe here, secure, no longer does she have to do what everyone else wants her to do. Obviously Micah isn't very happy and it starts fights.

- Micah assumes it's just a phase and so he drops the subject after they scream back and forth for awhile.

- It isn't until Micah notices that his sister spends a lot of time with Arthur that he becomes furious and jealous. He begins to feel like she's slipping away from him. Their fights become worse and more viscous His sister refuses to back down because she can't understand why Micah is so threatened by her happiness. She doesn't realize, from Micah's point of view, she's abandoning him.

- Eventually Dutch has to step in and tell them to cut it out because they're disturbing the camp's peace. Micah and his sister hardly speak to each other after that except to give the other a snide comment every once in awhile.

- Despite this I think both siblings would be very broken up about it. Micah will feel abandoned while his sister feels betrayed.

- After awhile they're put on a job together. Things go south pretty quickly and they both manage to narrowly escape. While hiding in the forest, struggling to catch their breath, they look at each other and burst out laughing. Neither Micah nor his sister ever talk through their issues with one another. They simply decide they're okay with each other again and resume talking as if nothing ever came between them. Forgiveness is their silent apology.

- Sometimes you just have to accept your sibling chooses a different path but that bond can still remain.

- If she ever gets hurt or shot, Micah will go ape shit!!!! He loves an excuse to slaughter someone. That paired with the threat of his final family member being injured? Oh he'll wreck havoc on the poor soul that decided to fuck with his sister.

- As the days go on and Micah's betrayal becomes more and more clear. Some of the gang start projecting their feelings for Micah onto her. Watching her with great suspicion. This would hurt her deeply. She doesn't want to lose her new family and she'll struggle with this a lot.

- If she falls in love with anyone from the gang, she knows it needs to be kept a secret. If Micah ever finds out.... She knows her lover will "mysteriously" go missing one day.

- I think during the final showdown she wouldn't choose Micah's side. She decides to choose whatever life she started building for herself. Micah destroyed the gang that made her feel loved and accepted for the first time in her life. She's furious with him and can't even look at him anymore. If her lover survives, she'll choose to stay with the lover.

- After a few years guilt will eat away at her and she'll return to Micah, joining his gang. Despite her 'betrayal' I think Micah would welcome her with open arms.

- At the end of the day they're just two lost souls who accept each other in a very raw humanity type of way. No one will ever know them the way they know each other. After everything Micah and his sister have been through together they will always end up in the same place again and again.

THE DEMONSTRATIONS THAT LASTED ELEVEN MONTHS and THE DAY MOTHERS STRIPPED NAKED.

On March 3rd 1992, mothers of the political prisoners stripped naked at Uhuru park to demand for the release of their sons caught in Moi's torture chambers.

Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the political atmosphere in Kenya was characterized by brutal government repression and terror, under the de-facto single-party rule of President Daniel Arap Moi. 

Any form of political dissension was swiftly met with government interrogation, detention, and torture, using the justification of the Public Order Act, the Chiefs Authority Act and the Sedition Law. 

This resulted to the arrest, killing and exiling of many students, politicians, lawyers and journalists. Those arrested were tortured and thrown in prisons, some came back alive while others died in the torture chambers and prisons. 

On Feb 28th, 1992, Mothers of Political Prisoners, aged between 60-80 years presented a Petition with a list of 52 political prisoners who had been imprisoned for perceived anti-government statements, ideas, and actions, to the then Attorney General, Amos Wako. 

The mothers then proceeded to a now famous corner at the Uhuru Park in Nairobi for an undefined hunger strike. The mothers were supported & led by the late Nobel Laurent, Prof. Wangari Maathai who joined them in their protest, which was ignored by the mainstream media, KBC & KTN. 

The mothers set up camp in the Uhuru (Freedom) Park that is located across the infamous “Nyayo House Torture Chambers” and not far off is the Parliament Building. There, they staged a hunger strike and waited for the release of their sons. 

The striking mothers soon garnered much support for their cause. Several sympathizers set up a tent under which the mothers could sleep, and many frustrated Kenyans came forward and openly recounted their stories of torture. 

These supporters joined in on the mothers’ singing of traditional Kenyan songs, which included such lyrics as, “Go and take the child back…” The mothers set up banners and handed out flyers to curious Kenyans as they continued their vigil. 

On March 3rd, the Moi government decided to forcibly disperse the demonstrators. Government police forces beat protesters with batons, fired gunshots into the air, and hurled tear-gas into the tent where protesters were gathered. 

Wangari Maathai who was criticized by President Daniel Arap Moi, being called a “madwoman” & “a threat to the order & security of the country”, was was beaten into the coma. This made it to the newspaper headlines, causing uproar across the nation and criticism internationally. 

To ward off the police, two of the protesting mothers stripped their clothing and dared the police to kill them. They shouted “What kind of government is this that beats women! Kill us! Kill us now! We shall die with our children!” 

Perhaps the mothers were inspired by the 1922 bravery actions of women led by Mary Muthoni Nyanjiru, who stormed a police station in Nairobi to demand the release of Harry Thuku. Men who had come along started retreating upon coming face to face with armed colonial police. 

In disappointment, Nyanjiru stripped to shame the fleeing men, and asked them to give women their trousers since they were brave. The charged crowd overrun the police station, and Mary Nyanjiru was shot dead on that day. Her brave actions aroused people into active resistance. 

Back to 1992, the police officers on seeing the nakedness of mothers in their 60s, responded by turning away and leaving the scene. According to Maathai, the tactic of disrobing was particularly effective in stopping the police because.... 

... “In the African tradition,people must respect women who are close to their mother’s age, & must treat them as their mothers. If men beat mothers,it is like sons violating their mothers, & the mothers respond by cursing them & they cursed them by showing them their nakedness.” 

The news of the violent beatings of the mothers sparked riots all over Nairobi. Transportation workers boycotted their work in protest of the govt beating the mothers, & large crowds of stone-throwing demonstrators had to be dispersed by tear gas-firing riot police.

Summer Recap: August - September 2024 ♡

Happy October, Vampunnies!

I can't believe it's already autumn, it feels like the year is flying by! Before I fully indulge in the new season, I wanted finish up the last of my summer recap posts~

Today I'll be writing about my trip to San Diego, OMORI, NIKKE, and Chiikawa pop-ups, outdoor movies, and meeting my Hololive oshi Nerissa Ravencroft?! This is also a pretty long one, so read more under the cut!

One of my goals this summer was to work on my tan, as I lowkey was looking sickly after the insane rainy season we had earlier this winter and spring. So I decided to plan another visit to the beach, this time a two-day trip to San Diego, a city on the Pacific coast!

From where I am, it's about a 2-3 hour drive depending on traffic. My hotel check in time was in the evening, so I wanted to spend the day going around! After my drive, I knew I was going to start getting hungry, so the first thing on my itinerary was visiting Mitsuwa to buy some food to eat at the beach. My toxic trait is always having to do gacha whenever I end up in a Japanese market, and so I bought some Blue Archive wafer cards and a Sonny Angel Hipper! I'm really happy because all my pulls ended up so cute~ In that plaza, I found a cute cafe called Flour Atelier, and got a lavender matcha latte (surprise) and some macarons ♡

My hotel was by the Crystal Pier, so I decided to spend my day there! My sister was with me during this trip, and she wanted to check out the Brandy Melville before we went on the actual beach. I ended up buying a cute tote bag. After shopping, we went down to the beach! It was a particularly hot day, so jumping into the cold water of the Pacific healed my soul. After playing in the water, I ate my yummy rice bowl from Mitsuwa and took a nap in the sun~

After heading to the hotel and getting checked in, I ended up going to a Thai restaurant for dinner. I had salmon with mango and rice, and it was so good. I was pretty proud of myself because I realized I have worked my way up to 2 out of 4 on Thai spice levels! (I used to be a 0 once upon a time...)

The next day, I went out to La Jolla! And of course, I had to go look at the seals and sea lions. There were so many! Apparently, the reason why this famous for them is because they go here to rest on the shores. I wish I brought my bathing suit with me that day since there was a cute little cove area you could swim by! Definitely next time~

For brunch I visited a super cute cafe called Sugar and Scribe. I had their "Blueberry Love" pancakes and a lemon lavender mimosa~ It was super good, and I'd love to visit there again!

And as my last activity out here, I visited the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. I'm not as familiar with contemporary art, especially when a lot of them are more localized to their community. However I always enjoy learning about new things, and seeing how museums curate their collections. Plus there were actually a few artists I did recognize! There were a lot of interesting pieces here, and I'll attach some of my favorites to the post.

One of the fun things about summer is alllll the pop-ups!

In Anaheim, there was an OMORI x Requiem Cafe pop-up. Which I was pretty excited for as I actually just started getting into OMORI after playing it on stream this month. My favorite characters are Hero and Mari, so I decided to get their themed drinks, as well as the Sweetheart Sundae! Everything was super tasty, and while you enjoyed your drinks you could take in the ambiance of the cafe's fantasy decor and OMORI bgm~ They had pretty cute exclusive merch too, so I got Hero and Mari's keychains, and a pink tote bag with the collab art.

Another pop-up I attended was the NIKKE x Animate LA collab at the Del Amo Shopping Center in Torrance. There were so many cute cut-outs and they had huge advertisements for the NIKKE x Evangelion collaboration. I mostly went to purchase some of the NIKKE Exhibition items they imported from Japan!

There were a couple activities to do for freebies as well! For the opening weekend, they had cute cosplayers host a quiz game for prizes. The question they asked me was literally "Name a Nikke who has a bunny suit!" Of course I answered so quickly with Alice~ Now, for reference, the prizes were also gacha because you had to pull from a jar and you would get an A, B, or C prize. So far this whole time, people were either getting A or B prizes, which were can badges and desk mats respectively. But if you don't know, my NIKKE luck is kind of insane, so I was the only one who pulled a C prize-- an acrylic stand!! Which was my preference as I love acrylic stands hehe. I got one of Rapi and I cherish it a lot since I have so many good memories attached to it.

After the NIKKE pop-up, I also visited the Mitsuwa in that mall to once again do more Blue Archive wafer pulls and buy lunch. I didn't realize how close this mall was to Redondo Beach until recently, so my friends and I decided to check it out. It's a quieter beach compared to the more touristy ones, so it was a great place to chill. Before going home, I found a super cute and pink cafe with jelly bunnies! Very Alice core~

The last pop-up I attended this summer was the Chiikawa x Miniso Pop-up at the Irvine Spectrum! It was heaven on earth (literally just a huge store of just Chiikawa stuff). I actually proxied the Chiikawa crossbody from this collab from Japan since I didn't know it was coming to SoCal at the time. So I really only had my eyes on one thing when I went for myself: Giant Chiikawa plushie!!! It's literally the biggest plushie I own, and is currently taking up so much space in my room, but it was so, so worth it. I've also attached a photo of him at Barnes and Noble at the mall because it was hilarious carrying him around that day.

Also, I feel the need to mention this somewhere in this post, Sunright Tea Studio was having a collab with Ace Attorney Investigations! I tried Edgeworth's Oolong Oolong Milk Tea and got a cute sticker too! It was a pretty basic drink, but still good. In a way, I think it suits him haha!

Another fun summer activity I got to enjoy was watching outdoor movies! I found out the Huntington Library was having a cute summer movie night event every month, so I came by to watch Tangled in August and Jurassic Park in September! Grab a picnic blanket and some snacks and enjoy these movies in the garden lawn!

Tangled is my favorite Disney movie, it's just such a comfort to me. I think for this day I spent some time in the gardens just to chill and then picked up some snacks for the movie at Hmart. I also visited Lacey Park while waiting for the Huntington to open up for the evening. It was a really cute community park!

As for Jurassic Park night, I invited some friends to come along with me and it was really fun! I haven't seen this movie since I was a kid, and it's kind of crazy how well this movie aged? Like the animatronic work was amazing! I think this day I visited Erewhon and got a smoothie, as well as a bag of Ludivine Macarons-- of which by the way, I would love to visit Ludivine in Los Angeles in the future...!

And now for the final topic of my summer recap series!

So, I wasn't planning on going to Anime Impulse OC this year... but hololive was like, yes you are! They announced a lottery to meet either Callie, Ina, or a member of Advent. Nerissa is like, my kamioshi of all vtubers ever. I was pretty casual about liking vtubers before, but after hearing Nerissa's singing during Advent's debut well... I had to stan, y'know?

Now, I did not win initially. I wasn't surprised at all since the chances were so low. There are many dedicated Hololive fans, including people willing to fly in from out of state or even Japan for this. However, literally two days before the con, I was eating dinner, and suddenly got an email notification saying one of the winners couldn't make it, and I won the second draw!

I didn't have much time to prepare for this con, so I just brought my trusty Maison de Fleur boston bag and decorated it with the few Nerissa goods I could decorate it with. Anime Impulse is a pretty chill con, which I appreciate. I've been going to the LA one for a few years now, but this was my first time going to AIOC! Despite being a smaller con, they've been growing a lot these past few years.

I did go around getting some freebies from some gacha games I didn't know but had cute stuff, perused Artist Alley, and bought some cute Korean deco stickers from the K-Pop section of the con. Hoyoverse also ran an official Honkai: Star Rail merch booth, from which I got the ticket themed Acheron keychain~

Also, I just want to make a quick shoutout to one of the shops I often collaborate with: Sora Gumi! They were vending that day and kindly gifted me some official Wuthering Waves goods. Male Rover is one of the coolest MC designs, ever. I don't talk about it much, but I'm obsessed with him (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) Anyway, the staff working there is really cool, please show them support at their stores either at Little Tokyo and The Source OC! (You can also buy official game, anime, etc. goods from them online at Nekotwo, and use my code "daiyastone" for a % off your order!)

And finally, Meet & Greet time! I actually had practiced what I wanted to say a few times, but when you're standing in line waiting for your turn, it's a little nerve wracking!! The fellow Jail Birds in line were really nice and we all hyped each other up! Nerissa was so kind and sweet, it was easier talking to her than I thought it would be. I actually wrote down how the conversation went, so you can read it if you'd like! I was 100% rizzed by her in this three-minute window...

This was such a wonderful experience and I'm so grateful for the opportunity! Also, I just want to say a big thank you to my bestie for helping me afford purchasing my tickets!! T^T

And that was my summer! Honestly I didn't even get to writing about everything because there's just so much, and I'm already just trying to recap since it's literally October... I still can't believe it.

Well, thank you for reading if you got this far! I hope you enjoyed reading about my summer adventures! From here on out posts will be more focused on specific topics and travels, so I hope you continue to checking out my posts in the future! Until next time!

Hogwarts Years For Various Characters

So, I'm getting a lot of mixed opinions on who went to Hogwarts when. Like all (and I do mean all) the adult characters going to Hogwarts with the Marauders, etc. So, I decided to do some extensive investigative work based on where the characters are in the books and what JKR said about them and their ages. If there's no information, I just looked up the actors who played them, and their ages at the time the movie was released (and when the movie is set). And yes, I will be including Hogwarts Mystery characters. Deal with it.

A few more notes, I find it extremely unlikely that half the OG Order of the Phoenix was made up of newly graduated Hogwarts students. Frank and Alice Longbottom have already made names for themselves as famous aurors by 1981, and it takes 3 years of training to become an auror. Same with Dorcas Meadows (I don't think she was an auror, but she was badass enough to be killed by Voldy personally).

As for Marlene McKinnon, Emmeline Vance, Amelia Bones, Hestia Jones, and Dedulus Diggle...

If Marlene was Lily's best friend and Sirius' lover (or even ex-lover), wouldn't Lily be more emotional about her death and say something like "I'm so sorry about Marlene. I know how much she meant to you."? And wouldn't she have mentioned her by name? "Marlene and her family" instead of "the McKinnons"?

If Emmeline Vance, Hestia Jones, and Dedulus Diggle were friends with Lily and James, wouldn't they (or Remus or Sirius) mention that to Harry? You would think that with all these "friends" of Harry's parents, going to Grimmauld Place would be like "coming home" to him.

Amelia Bones is described as having "grey hair" in OOTP, and the actress who portrayed her was 57 when Deathly Hallows part 1 was released, so she's almost 20 years older than the Marauders.

Here we go:

1930s:

Cornelius Fudge (1934-1941)

Augusta Longbottom (1935-1942)

Walburga, Lucrieta, and Alphard Black and Abraxas Malfoy (1936-1943)

Eileen Prince (1941-1948)

Ignatius Prewett, Arimentia Black, and Druella Rosier (DOBs unknown, but they're in the same generation as Sirius' parents)

Pomona Sprout (1943-1950)

Alastor Moody and Barty Crouch Sr. (1945-1952)
