realmarksheppard: You’re not going to believe this! Was on my way to an appointment yesterday when I collapsed in my kitchen. Six massive heart attacks later, and being brought back from dead 4 times I apparently had a 100% blockage in my LAD. The Widowmaker. If not for my wife, the @losangelesfiredepartment at mullholland and the incredible staff @providencecalifornia St Joseph’s - I wouldn’t be writing this. My chances of survival were virtually nil. I feel great. Humbled once more. Home tomorrow! #spnfamily

Update:

[teamgamble]

Team gamble tainted au (which I remember is a thing but not a lot of people showed interest :[)

Oh no don't worry I'm still planning a tainted universe takeover, just waiting for the right time. Which is hard because I have a bad habit of doing things at the worst time possible hjsdafhgj.

Basically the Tainted AU is where the kids a) never met, b) never went to the academy, and c) never got the help they needed, to various effects. Buckle up because this has been rattling in my brain for a WHILE.

CW for mentions of abuse, religion, homelessness, juvenile detention, transphobia, deadnaming, neglect, cults, beauty pageants, and death.

Isaac would have never left her mother's home in Solaceon Town and the Arcist religion. He would have become completely obsessed with worshipping Arceus and Creation Duo and self-hating.

Maggie's parents never divorced, leaving her abusive father to continue harming her. To cope, she would get fights with other children frequently and act rebellious. Probably ended up in a toxic relationship or two.

Cain was never disowned by his parents, mostly to save face. However, he's considerably more scared up because of "accidents" set up in the hopes he'll pay for what they think he did to Abel.

Judas was refused to be taken to another region by the pilot, and so he was forced to remain in Orre. They would continue to steal Pokemon to make ends meet, and eventually he probably would've joined Team Snagem.

Evelyn chose not to go to therapy and start gardening. Due to faer horrible physically abusive uncle, even after escaping from him, she would still fear mean and have a worse mental state in general.

Samson was never taken into foster care, and he would become extremely violent and have a hair-trigger temper. Samson was floating in and out of juvenile detention, and probably never accepted his homosexuality.

Azazel never escaped from their parents. They would bide their time until they're eighteen, but they're stuck in a household that misgenders and deadnames them and would clip their metaphorical wings by forbidding them from flying on their Pokemon.

Laz would keep floating in and outside of the hospital. Even after Beth runs away to join Team Plasma, his mother would keep ignoring and neglecting him, letting him get injured and ill. At times, he feels like he's just a dead boy walking.

Instead of spurning Eden for getting into the Internet, their father would embrace it and keep them in a position to continue being manipulated. Their only identity is their loyalty to their father and to archiving knowledge, to the point they don't even believe they need a name.

Lily never got sponsored by Naranja-Uva Academy, leaving them in the Galarian foster care system. To cope with neglectful foster parents that refuse to deal with a blind child, she would hoard Pokemon to both her and the Pokemon's detriment.

Apollo not only ever attended the Academy, he didn't even join Team Skull. Because he failed the Island Challenge so hard, he would become a homeless child on the streets of Hau'oli City, too ashamed of himself to return home.

Beth, finally having enough of the beauty pageants and being judged for every flaw she had, would run away from her mother. Instead of being found by child protective services, she would be found by an attempted third resurgence of Team Plasma. Having no faith in humanity, she zealously follows Team Plasma's teachings of separation between Pokemon and humanity--and her secret wish for mankind's downfall.

Jacob didn't choose to fight against his father. He warned him of what Esau was planning with him. So when Esau tried to free Entei, their father effectively injured him with his Pokemon and left him for dead. He got a promotion to Rocket Admin for the capture of a Legendary, and Jacob got to be his secondhand man and his approval. However, he feels guilt over what happened. He never wanted Esau to die, just his dad's love and approval. And what's worse, Esau holds it against him.

Esau died after getting Fire Blasted by his father's Arcanine. Seeing he tried to do the right thing, Ho-oh attempted to revive him. But because of his rage, hatred, and malice, he came back wrong and returned as a black and red Hisuian Zoroark. Now he haunts Jacob, randomly appearing in a Pokeball on his body even with a full party. And it's a 50-50 if he'll go straight for Jacob, or get distracted by the opponent so Jacob can start running.

Script 1 of 7 donated by Kripke for our final fundraiser for RIP Medical Debt kicking off on April 25: an early draft of the Supernatural pilot!

Supernatural pilot script signed by Eric Kripke with a note from him on the cover page: "Original pilot that got tossed out — whole different story — enjoy this alternative reality Sam and Dean"

[spnscripthunt-inactive]

The Supernatural Script Hunt came from humble origins, a handful of fans banding together to collect and preserve our fandom history, making as many scripts as possible accessible to fans worldwide. Since acquiring our first script over five years ago, and then branching out to involve so many fans supporting the work in the years since, it was always our intent to give it all back, and then some.

When we began this project, the fandom collectively had six scripts from five episodes and a single network outline. In the five years since we bought our first script to add to that collection, we are ending the project with a total of 163 scripts from 147 episodes, casting sides from 50+ episodes, 50+ call sheets, arenas from 18 episodes, and other related documents. A complete list of items in our collection is on the SupernaturalWiki, for a closer look, click here.

The time has come for us to offer everyone a final chance to own their very own priceless souvenir of the show and cast we all love so dearly. In doing so, we also want to honor the largest (hopefully!) legacy of our fandom: using our collective power for good. Which is why we're offering up some very special scripts (and a few other items!) in our collection in a raffle to benefit Undue Medical Debt.

Our initial goal was to raise at least $10,000 so we can erase at least one million dollars in medical debt.  We've met that goal, our stretch goal is to get to $20,000 so we can erase at least two million dollars in medical debt.

How Undue Medical Debt Works:

You make a donation. They use data analytics to pinpoint the debt of those most in need: households that earn less than 4x the federal poverty level or whose debts are 5% or more of annual income.

Undue Medical Debt buys medical debt at a steep discount. They buy debt in bundles, millions of dollars at a time at a fraction of the original cost. This means your donation relieves about 100x its value in medical debt.

Together we wipe out medical debt. People across the country receive letters that their debt has been erased. They have no tax consequences or penalties to consider. Just like that, they're free of medical debt.

For every $10 you donate to Undue Medical Debt, you will 1) be erasing about $1,000 in medical debt and 2) be able to enter our raffle to win one of the items listed below.

Just to Recap since some morons like to make up stories STILL

So now is my yearly time for this bipolar latino guy to hop on this blog and then leave it for another year. This time, some old drama although, it seems its from a while ago.

This world class moron @wiscowrites​ and her bullshit. Personally, it took me a good 20 minutes to even remember who this person was. Think they ran a site I was on that died twice while I was on it, then got uppity when I didn’t return and requested my characters be taken down but they turned them into skeleton canons instead or something. Anyway. While this message I saw was ancient, it recently popped up on my coding help blog by one of her followers. So, why not clear the air in my zero fucks given postings here. Already vanquished my other trolls and enemies (who I didn’t even know I had let alone knew who 99% of them even were) why not continue it this year.

This claim is actually categorically false and twisted by the mob. As stated numerous times before, I hadn't stolen anything, in fact, I had my then JCINK FORUMS RP Sequence for exact three years before Raven ever created Elswood Academy. To remind you of what happened. Raven accused me of stealing coding, and aesthetic from her site. That’s all. They then went and contacted RPs my characters were on previously (total of two) One of which I hadn't been on for years at that point and the other was being trolled by a member that roleplay’s admin allegedly stole a character from as well as a member that (according to the troll *winks at sam*) was on and off staff numerous times ( the saga of my time at both those RPs and one I was on two years back can be found here  https://shenanigansandrants.tumblr.com/post/151692717913/about-the-roleplay-wotna#notes and https://zachnovak.tumblr.com/post/636528943282946048/so-i-dont-normally-log-onto-this-account-much-so )

I quickly gathered evidence showing that many of the codes I was accused of stealing were in fact codes I had been using and upgraded from my jcink RP three years before I transferred Sequence to tumblr. If I hadn't created them, I linked the codepen posts of the codes I used (codepen is a resource site free for anyone to use their codes). I then also proved many of Raven's templates were in fact stolen from Codepen and other sites that she claimed were original or 'inspired' by where the only difference in the codes was font families and various colors. Also showed that she had claimed codes that were popular on forum RPs for years were 'original work' for elswood. However, by the time I had proven that, the mob had already made up their mind about me given Raven's faked and twisted evidence. After all, I didn't think I needed to log and archive everything I transferred, where I got it originally, how I changed it from my old codes or from resource sites, etc etc. So it took me almost two weeks to gather than organize it all. However, a number of other RPHs had listened to me, looked at my evidence, and believed me, Raven then had them harassed for weeks after and openly told people not to open my posts against them. Although, they had stopped attacking my RP and me by that point (insert coincidence I think not gif). Still, I received and showed evidence of one of her former admins of a DM they had together showing me that she wanted to go after my RP to both promote their own and because they had a hate boner for me since I once called them an elitist snob. (man, lock me up!!!.....was I wrong tho?)

From alegendreborn, I was told by one of their mods that their main admin when contacted, told Raven that I had caused drama (links above explain what actually happened) and stolen their shop/points system for their RPs. Only they didn't know I had Sequence on Jcink two years before ALR was made and jcink has a shop and points system built in which I just made into a sideblog I ran when I moved Sequence to tumblr. The concept of a 'shop and cash' system to earn points and by upgrades/powers for a character based off posts might have been revolutionary on tumblr; but it was an ancient concept on jcink by that time. There was also some foolishness on the ‘look and aesthetic’ of that side blog or something. One of their staff members clearly didn’t mention they used a common and heavily used theme template just had original graphics. While I made edits to the theme itself, it was still aesthetically similar to the original design and organization the theme maker used and ALR just slightly altered. The main admin I think called Mary or something, was also really pissed off that I continued to play my character on that blog for a while as a sort of indie blog before I was told by the three members that chose to continue posting with me that they had to stop because their admin was threatening to kick them out of the RP. So I let that blog rest and years later turned it into an indie blog. One of ALR’s previous and original staff members who left for ‘personal reasons’ would later send me a submission apologizing for everything that happened during my time there, informing me that Mary and ‘Sara’ were goaded by Raven to check out every square inch of my site and find anything remotely similar then expose it as theft. No matter how vague or even if was just as both using the same font color for the same type of link and they would back them up. 

From WOTNA, raven was told that epic tale along with the staff's mistaken belief I was trolling them still a year after leaving. Along with stealing a character and a plot. However, I showed they had already 'blasted' me about that and had proven in screen shots that I had made the character I 'stole' three years before WOTNA was made, and that they had created an event right when I was making the tumblr Sequence where characters were getting number tattoos which is a major plot element of Sequence. Only, their tattoos were effectively holocaust brandings while the ones in sequence were roman numerals of various sizes, styles, etc etc. I also helped the admin there solve who their troll was and she later told me that they had indeed lied to raven about a lot of things. Raven had led them to conclusions that I was their troll and was doing this and that which made the staff come up with stories they admit to making up. Also telling me that they saw my blog for Sequence and had taken elements of it when making events and factions on WOTNA. They also publicly 'forgot' I had shown the character they accused me of stealing was in fact stolen from me but privately kept reminding each other to not mention my post about it. I was also granted access to and saved a google doc of the admins of WOTNA’s chat logs that they made in their battle against one of their former members where they openly admit to making up stories to ‘get back at me’ and deleting my asks to their main when I was wondering them on my characters being stolen. As well as asking me to return to their RP first out of despite as their admin team was having a minor civil war and then later to basically show I was ‘harassing them’ again by trying to return despite having the invite saved and even pre plotting with some of the members for when I returned.

These are the FACTS of what actually happened back then. If anyone wishes to see the evidence I have mentioned that I didn't link to feel free to DM me on tumblr, I know a couple of you stalk me still. In the end, Raven themselves has deleted this 'saga' from their defunct blog along with most of the templates I proved were stolen. Not sure if that was done because I utterly destroyed their stories, or because I threatened to sue since they were running a targeted harassment campaign and threaten to dox a MINOR. Yes, for those of you who didn't know, I was 17 years old at the time of Raven's ramblings. I was coding, running, and RPing on roleplays on jcink at the age of 13 and jumped ship to tumblr around 15 and a half. I look back on it all and just smile to be honest. I've made a living as a web designer since I was 20 and hit four digits on my income on patreon making mods for games like Sims, Skyrim, Fallout etc etc. (humble brag much?) The fact some of ya'll still think I had to steal anything then just makes me smile, nod, then forget about ya two minutes later.

I chalk it up to a lot of immature 20 something keyboard warriors going insane over someone that they just didn't like and doing whatever they could to destroy me, faking evidence, flat out lying, or just closing their eyes and screaming over anything else that went against their narrative. The facts were twisted then and were clearly twisted in people's memories to this day. However, I will also note that while EVERYONE involved in this drama has either left/been kicked out of the RPC or are now only on indie blogs under new names or running slave smut RPs, I'm still here and active. I'm on two different RPs, run an RP on both jcink and tumblr and even restarting one of my four RPs I have on tumblr here under a new roleplay name and setting while still going by Nolan. It has been entertaining seeing people still being pathetic, making up stories, and still hating on me when I don't even know any of you and haven't even interacted with 99% of the people that still get their underwear in a bunch over me. Please, move on with your lives, grow the fuck up, and stop obsessing over me everytime you finally realize I'm still around. I'll do me and you do you, if you don't like it, then press the damn block button and move on. I'm not going anywhere, I haven't done anything to warrant leaving or being harassed. The fact that people enjoy the hate for someone they know nothing of and have never spoken to speaks volumes of how privileged your lives are and how sad they are at the same time.

Admittedly, I have been no angel. I am an opinionated little shit and not afraid to voice it when asked. It tends to rub the narcissistic people the wrong way as they don't like hearing a narrative that doesn't agree with their own. When they go postal, I used to come out swinging, that I admit. I also had messaged people about joining a couple of my RPs in the past normally those their friends told me to message who were on the RP or those that popped into my 'suggested blogs' section and were on long dead or recently dead roleplays. I know some people don't like this and consider it poaching (can you poach from a dead RP though?) and I do apologize for those it rubbed the wrong way. This is a form of advertising that to this day I still see going on. If I screen cap my various active blogs I can show I get slightly more asks about joining some random RP than I get porn blogs following, reblogging, and messaging me. Some of it is done by the very person(s) that complained when I did it for my supernatural RP. I've long gotten used to the 'rules for ye but not for me' mentality that a lot of the trolls have though. It does make me laugh that Jo here called it ‘harassment’ but it doesn’t get called that when others do it and I still have dozens upon dozens of messages saved on the main of that RP of people thanking me and telling me they were looking for a new RP to join since the one their blog was tied to was dead. Ironically, I don’t have a single one that has anything negative to say about them being messaged. Unless you count “thank you so much but I’m currently taking a break from roleplaying, I’ll check you guys out in the future though.” as a negative reply.

Dead Boy Detectives is a stunning series

[gallickingunsteals]

Gallickingun/Lilhemmo is tracing art, reposting art and gifs, stealing ideas, and more

We’re going to start by introducing ourselves: we are a group of anonymous artists, writers, and editors that are either in @bnhabookclub​​​​ or have left it for various reasons related to the admin and creator, @gallickingun​​​​ / @lilhemmo​​​​ and the mod staff as a whole. This doesn’t mean all of her staff is bad, but they’ve strongly enabled, overlooked, and allowed Morgan to steal for too long. We’re not associated with @gallickingunexposed​​​​, but we would like to work with them if they have more they want to share. The reason we’re remaining anonymous for now is because some of us are still in Bookclub. As you’ll see below the cut, and if you go through gallickingunexposed, you’ll find that Morgan has ruthlessly degraded and talked shit about people within Bookclub as well as kicked people without saying why or telling her mod team. 

Next, we’ll explain why we’re doing this. Many people will respond with “Why not message Morgan? This isn’t right. You’re creating drama.” We’re not sorry to say this, but theft is not drama. It’s disrespectful and rude as well as illegal depending on the circumstances. Alongside this, Morgan has been contacted about these actions in the past multiple times by multiple people but continues to do it and/or insist she’s in the right. At that point, what else would you propose when handling it privately doesn’t work? 

Additionally, all creators deserve to know that someone is blatantly and consistently disrespecting their mutuals or people they follow by stealing their stuff. They all deserve to know that there is someone (Morgan) out there who might steal their work or break their posting rules as she’s done to others, as well as know if she’s already done it to them. Had this happened once or twice then we wouldn’t be posting this, but Morgan has a record of reposting art, gifs, stealing fics, ideas, and tracing art and she continues to insist that she doesn't do that.

This post is meant to give Morgan a wakeup call and inform everyone of things they are ignoring or unaware of. If you decide she is still in the right after reading this, then we hope you and her are blocked from other creators’ accounts so that you don’t get the chance to steal their work. This is not a discussion. This is a compilation of just some of the things she did.

Please keep in mind that this isn’t just about creative laws, this is also about creative decency and integrity, and the respectful treatment of creators. All of those have been continuously ignored by Morgan and other Bookclub staff after it is brought up multiple times, which proves that they are unfit to be in any position that allows them access to others’ pieces or a position that lets them dictate what people post. It also shows how little they care about creators as a whole. 

A solution: remake the Bookclub, remove Morgan from Bookclub staff at least, and possibly get new support staff (unless the current staff truly does disagree with her ways). If the other support team and members excuse her for stealing, reposting, etc., then they are just as bad, and those in support staff team shouldn’t be in there any longer. Shame on them for promoting and enabling creative theft. That is not an environment anyone should be promoting or enabling. Fair warning to anyone interested in BNHA Bookclub right now — they currently do not care about your work being stolen and the head admin herself has and still does steal from and ridicule and disrespect others even in Bookclub. The Bookclub was completely stolen (details below) and shouldn’t get the benefits and praise that come with zero credit and claiming originality.

And for Morgan, when you see this, we know you’re going to delete your theft posts so that the original artists and editors won’t see it. You’ll say you deleted it because you “know it’s wrong” and you “shouldn’t have posted it” but if that were the case, you would’ve done so the first time people have brought up you stealing, not the 2nd or 3rd or 4th — this is a trend. Delete them after you own up to it with the original posters. Let them see that you’ve done this. You can’t cover up what you’ve done by saying you didn’t do it or garner pity with a long apology. We also know that’s something you tend to do right before you repeat the same “mistakes,” feed into hate messages, and throw a pity party with your followers to feel better about your wrongdoings. An apology is the bare minimum. You should actually stop posting things that aren’t yours, stop copying ideas that aren’t yours, and stop covering up your theft. You are not the victim here!

ART (reposting and tracing)

Recently, Morgan got an ask and said she doesn't repost fanart without permission. Right before that, she had done just that with screenshots of a bunch of Bakugou art in a Google search. We felt this was still a form of reposting, but we wanted to ask the artists themselves too since Morgan didn’t. They all agreed that it’s still reposting because it shares their content where they don't allow even if it's not the HD image. She didn’t have to post the art. She could have gotten her notes without reposting art (yes, she cares about that and you can see in the link shared in the stealing ideas section of this post).

She edited this post to crop out the art, so someone must have told her to do so. We would like to give her more credit, but the BNHA Bookclub rules are a strong indication of her beliefs: that no matter what the artists and others think, she doesn’t believe she reposted -- she doesn’t want to admit she’s wrong or facilitating reposts.

“9. Do not repost content without credit... But we realize sometimes you’re just doing a google search and can’t find the original poster.”

The rules of the Bookclub themselves, as pictured in @rivendell101​​​′s post about Morgan stealing the Bookclub entire set up, rules, theme and concept of Bookclub from her, do not mention anything about reposting content or plagiarism or anything else that would promote protecting creators. So what?

This means you’re safe (by Bookclub standards) to repost and steal on your blog! And with that, you’re safe to do it in the server too because Bookclub staff has deemed this okay. So all of support staff are guilty of enabling and practically promoting theft.

It unfortunately gets worse from here. 

Morgan has not only reposted art, but traced art too.

The original artist, @lem0uro​​​, doesn’t allow reposts or tracing of their work (read - one, two, three, four) (here’s the original art). They have also said that this counts as reposting because again, their work is being shared in a manner that is not on their blog or being reblogged. But Morgan wouldn’t count this as reposting. 

There is no permission like she says she would get if she reposts (but she doesn’t, remember?), neither is credit given. You have to zoom in to find the blurry watermark and hope that you got it right so you can find the original artist. 

Who, again, doesn’t allow tracing. Most, if not all, artists don’t. You can easily overlay those two images and see that it was traced, not referenced. 

GIFS (reposting)

Fandom editors typically don’t allow reposting of their work. If they do, you follow their rules for reposting (common rules are either get permission, credit them, or both). In Morgan’s case, she has reposted multiple gifs over the years, and also posted a submission of someone else’s gif — yes, that’s still reposting because she still chose to post it when she knew it wasn’t hers.

(x)

We couldn’t find the creator of the submitted gif but if someone does, please send them this or tell them about this happening so that they can know. It’s not the person who submitted it as there are multiple reposts dating back to before Morgan’s post.

The second gif is by @slaughterofinnocence​​​ found here and it’s unclear if they allow reposts (but that doesn’t make it free real estate, Moe).

(x)

This gif is by @sstarphase​​​ found here and they don’t allow reposts.

(x)

Again, not Morgan’s original gif because it’s been reposted multiple times before. If you know the creator, please let them know this is happening.

(x)

This gif is by @bellblake​​​​ found here and they don’t allow reposts.

(x)

This gif is by @billrskarsgard​​​​ found here and it’s unclear if they allow reposts.

(x)

We couldn’t find the original creator but if you know then please make them aware.

(x)

We couldn’t find the original creator but if you know then please make them aware.

(x)

We couldn’t find the original creator even with the watermark, but if you know then please make them aware.

We’re aware that some of these posts are old, but that doesn’t excuse her actions, especially since she insists that she doesn’t repost. That only shows that this isn’t a one time issue.

IDEAS (exact copy and pasting and mimicking without inspo credit)

We won’t be addressing Morgan stealing fic ideas because that has been brought up by multiple other people already including @gallickingunexposed​​​​ and @lady-bakuhoe​​​​. Keep in mind that this is a compilation of observations no matter how small.

You can read this post about Morgan stealing the entire idea of Bookclub. Are network and archive blogs and servers exclusive and original ideas? NO! But Morgan didn’t just copy the idea, she:

took credit for it

copy and pasted the rules from @southsidearchive​​​​

copied the same exact theme as ^

copied the set up of the server from ^

bonus: shit talked the admin of ^ and said she’d use them for notes and only add them to Bookclub at the very last minute

Again, you can’t take credit for a common concept like Morgan did, but you can easily give credit to where you got the idea or what you’re basing your actions off of, which Morgan didn’t do. That’s called saying who inspired you. Since Morgan and staff legitimately plagiarized the entire Bookclub setup, they didn’t just get inspiration in that case. 

Moving on, all of the people contributing this post except a few have been here since the beginning of Bookclub and have either left Bookclub or remain in it. We remember what it was like when it started up and we’ve seen the changes it has gone through. Interestingly enough, these changes were not original. 

NOTE: Because Morgan and Bookclub staff have stolen and taken credit for the entirety of southsidearchive’s set up, this is being brought up because it is no mere coincidence that they’re doing the same things again. The only difference is that they were caught sooner.

A couple of us noticed the current changes reflecting @haikyuucreations​​​‘ server only after Morgan had joined. This is a smaller instance compared to the previous, but that should mean there’s no issue with mentioning “I got this idea from them” just like @southsidearchive​​​ did with their rules and haikyuucreations did with their set up. 

There was no mention inspiration when Morgan took all of these from haikyuucreations:

QOTD (role and channel)

the same bots

a split administrative staff between the blog mods and server mods

As you can see here, Morgan didn’t join the haikyuucreations server until July 25th, and she only waited a couple days until she started copying the way they did QOTD. Previously there was no role or a separate channel, but Morgan shamelessly used that idea and didn’t say she got inspiration or anything. Instead, she passes it off as her wanting it to be more active. The nice thing to do would be at least promote or mention the people you got your ideas from even if they aren’t original ideas. We’re sure Morgan wouldn’t want someone writing a whole fic inspired by hers without saying, or creating an entire blog and server like hers without saying.

Below we’ll talk about the dates that Morgan and Bookclub staff copied the same bots as haikyuucreations. Public bots are not exclusive, but the idea of Bookclub is completely unoriginal since it is a carbon copy of southsidearchive and now it’s imitating haikyuucreations.

Once again, no one owns common concepts, but we believe the timing is all too convenient for Morgan to be adding in the same bots after joining the haikyuucreations server. When we first joined Bookclub, Writer-Bot and Carl Bot weren’t there, but Morgan went ahead and added both of them in like she “just came up with it,” to quote her directly in the post linked earlier from southsidearchive.

You can see the earliest messages from those two bots in the haikyuu server and compare it to when Writer-Bot joined Bookclub. There isn’t anything about when Carl Bot joined, but we and anyone else in the server can confirm that it wasn’t there until after Morgan joined the other server. 

Besides this, she got her character bot ideas with prompts and flirty lines from the southsidearchive server, but there was no inspo credit for that.

We will, though, reach out to the staff of haikyuucreations to see if Morgan at least asked about getting inspiration for how they run their server. If that is the case, we’ll delete everything regarding Morgan copying from them. But that’s really unlikely since she didn’t do that for southsidearchive.

Another instance of copying without inspiration credit is Morgan copying haikyuucreations split staff setup. Since at least June, their blog and server have been split between two different teams. This third screenshot is from August 22nd after a Bookclub member spoke with Candy from the Bookclub staff. This change of Bookclub being split is a recent one, once again only coming up after Morgan has seen it work in the haikyuu server. This information was sent via DM, and Bookclub staff is continuing to avoid acknowledging that they’ve stolen ideas from other archival blogs and servers.

MISC

This is unrelated to creative theft. We want to point out another inconsistency where staff has failed to uphold their rules and protect their members, specifically about incest.

They make it very clear that incest is not a topic allowed in the server or in fics submitted to the blog, yet they allowed this conversation about Todoroki family incest to occur. If it’s allowed in specific channels, then that should be clear in the rules but it isn’t. But that’s just what happens when you copy and paste someone else’s rules and don’t have any familiarity with them:

According to gallickingunexposed, there was also the instance of minors getting into NSFW channels by lying to staff and by staff opening the channel up temporarily for everyone to participate in. This isn’t legal. It’s unfair. It’s disgusting. Being lied to is out of your control, but Bookclub support staff willingly opened up a NSFW channel for minors to get in. Temporary or not, that’s unacceptable.

And to discuss rule 11: Lyssa/@burnedbyshoto​​ was kicked without notice to anyone, members and mods alike, just because Morgan didn’t like her (referencing gallickingunexposed). This doesn’t mean Lyssa was innocent, but since only Morgan knew about kicking her, no one could personally take it up with her. That’s an abuse of power and a fine way for Morgan to go around her own rules. With all of that, Bookclub members are literally forced by the rules to respect staff and their decisions, breeding an unhealthy environment where no one can speak up without facing backlash in the server or in DMs -- like Morgan shit talking her own members and other bloggers. 

CONCL.

We compiled as much as we could, but there is definitely more that Morgan has stolen and more that her staff has enabled. We believe the best solutions include

1. Bookclub to be remade since it was completely stolen and continues to steal from others.

If someone steals a gif, art, or writing, the proper response is to delete it. It’s unlikely Bookclub staff will do that with Bookclub, so the least they could do is stop benefitting from others’ ideas. Had the Bookclub been marginally influenced by the Riverdale and Haikyuu servers and blogs then it would be different, but this is too far. There is no telling how far they’re going to go and Morgan has no limits of what else she’ll steal and defend. This also needs to happen because the rules themselves are not followed by staff. If you don’t know your own rules or you’re not going to follow them then change them. They were never your rules in the first place and the power is being abused anyway.

2. Morgan needs to leave Bookclub staff. 

She may have started it, but it was never her idea or setup in the first place. Considering she doesn’t follow the rules she copy and pasted, abuses her power, and consistently disrespects other creators either personally or by stealing from them, she doesn’t deserve to get by with another fake apology. Multiple apologies over the same thing followed by the same “mistakes” are worthless. They’re emotionally manipulative and only serve to let her get by with doing it again and get pity when she’s caught. We considered suggesting a suspension, but since Morgan has already left the server once and came back with the issues persisting and more arising, we don’t feel like this is a proper solution. She will only come back and continue to be a risk to the members of Bookclub for talking poorly about them behind their backs and for stealing from them and others. We sincerely hope that Bookclub mods are capable enough to run Bookclub without her, especially if they remake it to fit them. It’s understood that Morgan did most of the admin duties on her own and wouldn’t let mods participate despite being told or asked of, so we hope that that’s even more reason she shouldn’t be in staff.

3. Apologize to the original posters and follow their instructions.

Don’t delete the posts before they see, that’s just running away. If they tell you to credit them, do it. If they tell you to delete it, do it. But don’t delete it and brush it under the rug. And once you do apologize, don’t go back to posting and pretending everything is normal. This is a serious topic and deserves serious reflection. Every time this comes up, Morgan goes in circles victimizing herself, giving an apology, and repeating. That doesn’t work 10 times in a row.

This post will remain up until all three of these suggestions are taken. We’ll continue to help find more content that Morgan and staff have stolen, even if it means getting no sleep because this matters. As writers, artists, and editors, Bookclub staff should understand that. Morgan may not and has proven that she doesn’t care enough to change her ways, but we won’t stop until we see what we want.

It's important work when it comes to building the bridges of interspecies cooperation.

It's rough, troubleshooting magical office problems when your only magic is setting things on fire (mostly yourself). (A little Jason-centric fic for his birthday.)

"I thought you already fixed this."

Jason glances up from where he's kneeling, using a short sword to pry a square of carpeting from the floor. It's killer on the blade and he'll have to sharpen it when he's done (Admin still hasn't approved Maintenance to use any of the magical blades squirreled away in Storage despite his many requests), but until people stop stealing his box cutters, it's the best tool for the job. "What?"

Duke nudges the singed carpet with the toe of his sneaker. "This? I mean, it happened almost six months ago?"

"You're thinking of the carpet over by Accounting."

"Right, from when Cissie's replacement first showed up," Duke says, nodding his head. He's polite enough to not expand on that, even when Jason's ears go red hot and start to smoke slightly. "What happened this time? Did Tim drop something and bend over to pick it up?"

Maybe not as polite as he thought. "Dick lost control of his breeze and startled Cassandra." Jason hopes Vic lets him see the security footage later. He'd pay good money to watch Dick get the roasting he deserves, even if he didn't lift the fenghuang's skirt intentionally. "I'm not the only fire hazard in the building, you know."

Duke gives him a sheepish grin, rubbing a hand over his head and producing a small shower of sparks. "Yeah, yeah, I know. Sorry, man."

"Hey, careful there!" Jason reaches out a hand, absorbing the heat energy from the sparks before it causes even more damage for him to repair. "If you're sparking at random, you should probably see Raven."

"No, it's cool, I've got it under control," the impundulu quickly assures him.

Jason gives the lightning bird a sympathetic look. "Y'know, she's really not as scary as everyone makes her out to be."

"Yeah, tell that to someone who doesn't have to visit Medical for weekly breathalyzer tests to reassure HR he's still sticking to an animal-blood diet," Duke grumbles.

Considering that he has his own issues handling a dangerous nature, Jason has sympathy for the guy, really he does. Still, that sympathy doesn't extend to overlooking property damage. "Here," he says, unhooking the little fire extinguisher from his belt and passing it over. "If you're not gonna see Raven, then I'm pretty sure you need this more than me."

"You sure? I mean, with the new guy and all—"

"It's been six months, I don't think he really counts as new anymore. And besides, he and I get along just fine."

Chapter Two - The Handyman

Summary: Freed and Laxus live incredibly different lives. Freed is a corporate lawyer in the capital city, and Laxus works as a handyman in a countryside hotel. Despite their differences, their lives collide when Freed inherits a house in Laxus’ village, and hires him to make the derelict building liveable. But the closer they get, the more they seem to offer each other. [Fraxus Multi-Chapter]

This was written as my admission for Fraxus Day 2020, hosted by @fuckyeahfraxus​. This is the second chapter, and from now on it’ll be updated weekly. Hope you enjoy it.

You can read this under the cut, on Fanfiction, or on Archive of Our Own. You can find the chapter masterpost here.

Chapter Two – The Handyman

"Fucks sake. Fucking bitch."

"That's not the way to talk to a lady, Laxus. Damn."

"I ain't talkin' to a lady, I'm talking to this piece of shit."

With an angered huff, Laxus slammed down the screwdriver and allowed it to clatter against the small tray of tools. On the table was the industrial toaster that Laxus had been attempting to fix for the better half of the morning, with an only slightly warm piece of bread resting pitifully on the wire rack, practically mocking Laxus with its lack of any toast-like qualities. It was the sixth time that year that the machine had decided to work, and Laxus had grown to have a vendetta against the fucking thing.

But he wasn't going to let it win. He had singlehandedly fixed practically every electric device in Fairy Tail since becoming the handyman, and he would be damned if the fucking toaster was his downfall. He'd conquered faulty boilers, crappy wiring and, on one condition, a disgusting issue with sewage backup over the past year alone. A toaster was nothing.

"Just make your grandad buy a new one," Cana laughed as she walked further into the hotel's breakroom. "It's like twenty years old, probably only makes the bread darker because of an oil leak."

"I ain't getting it replaced," Laxus snapped, glaring at the open circuitry of the machine with probably too much hatred for what the situation deserved. "If it gets it replaced, then the fucking things knows that it's won."

"It's a toaster dude," Cana deadpanned.

"Don't give a shit," Laxus groaned, leaning back in the chair so the forelegs left the floor, resting his arms behind his head. "You meant to be working today?"

"Yeah. Apparently there's some big group coming for lunch and they need extra wait staff, so Gramps called me. And I'm working the bar later," Cana shrugged, taking out a chair and straddling it; because of course she did. "You?"

"Room seven had a flickering light, needed fixing," Laxus sighed. "Thought I might as well work on this thing while I'm here."

The blonde looked around the small room, eyes flittering towards the clock and sighing. He'd been drinking the night before and had it not been for his grandfather's seven AM phone call worrying about the supposed 'lawsuit waiting to happen' he would probably only just be getting out of bed after nursing a light hangover. He'd been able to wrangle a free breakfast from Mirajane, at least, but he would trade that in for his covers at that moment. At least when he was planning to feel sorry for himself about his hangover, he had something to do. Now he just had a day of nothing.

His work was fine, but inconsistent. He did any repairs that was needed at his grandfather's hotel, be that plumbing, electric work, or just helping out when it was understaffed. But Makarov kept a tight ship, and had good relationships with his staff so absences only happened when needed. So, Laxus was often left with little to do.

It was a nice problem to have, but Laxus didn't intend to be impartial.

This was the issue in living in a small town for all of your life, being forced to either thrive there or break free from it. He liked Magnolia, the area was beautiful and his childhood there had been good, but he was limited by living there. A degree in electrical engineering wasn't worth much when the only relevant job available was at a mechanics shop where he'd once bashed in the teeth of the owner's son. The miserable old bastard should have forgiven him by now; it'd been six years.

Which was why he was grateful for his grandfather giving him the job. He got to put his degree to use, even if on crappy toasters, and made a living. But it was a boring existence, and the reason why Laxus found himself on job searchers websites at least twice a week.

"You gonna eat that?" Cana asked, going towards the warmed but not toasted bread.

"No," Laxus furrowed his brows. "Are you?"

"I'm poor, man," Cana laughed, picking up the bread and eating it.

"I've seen the cupboard where you keep your booze, you ain't 'stealing warm. crappy bread poor' yet," Laxus deadpanned, and Cana laughed as she ate her bread; she didn't even put fucking butter on it. "And you get twice the number of tips than me when we work the bar together. Where's it going?"

"Booze cupboard," Cana grinned.

"You'll fuck up your kidneys, you know."

"I'll get an operation and replace 'em," Cana laughed, swallowing a bite of bread. "Speaking of being split open and things going inside, you fucked anyone lately?"

"Fuckin hell!" Laxus exclaimed, wide eyes darting towards the woman who was now openly laughing.

This was something that his friend brought up often, and as such she had lost all tact about it. The two of them were some of the only openly gay people in Magnolia – at least to their knowledge – and therefore had some annoying kinship when it came to their relationships. It had started as them both feeling sorry for themselves, as they had nobody to date. Somehow, it had devolved into a friendship where Cana felt perfectly comfortable talking about what Laxus was planning on doing, or had done, in his bed.

Worse still, Laxus didn't have the same opportunity to make fun of her. Cana was openly besotted with Mirajane, and had long since lost any shame about it. Cana could joke about Laxus falling in love with any man he saw, but Laxus couldn't do the same because they both knew Mirajane was the only woman for her.

Selfish asshole.

"You're gonna fuck all of hell? You must have more time on your hands," Cana laughed, and Laxus stood up with a groan. "Aw, come on man, don't leave."

"I'm gonna go see if one of the toilets needs to be unblocked," Laxus grunted, walking towards the door of the breakroom. "Seems more pleasant than talking t' you."

"Oh how you wound me, I think I might cry," Cana spoke in possibly the most sarcastic voice possible.

"Go suck on yer crushes clit," Laxus muttered.

"Had a good few dreams about that, my man," Cana grinned, before adding in a less teasing tone. "And Lisanna said she wants to talk to you later, so find her once you're done scrubbing the shitter," A smirk formed on her features again. "Maybe she wants to set you up with her brother. You'd be a hot ass couple."

"Fuck yourself."

"Imagine the carnage though. The two of ya could break beds faster than an over eager lumberjack."

Laxus didn't respond, and lifted his middle finger to the woman as he left the room.

~~~

There had been no toilets in need of being cleaned, thankfully, but Laxus had been able to keep himself busy for the morning. It had been mainly small and inconsequential jobs, such as removing leaves from the guttering before a build-up formed and checking that supply of complimentary soap wasn't running low, before he ended up back in the break room and working on the toaster.

It wasn't going well, and the patrons would have to deal with the break rooms single slice toaster for at least another day, but at least Cana was working the restaurant for the lunch shift rather than being there to annoy him. He hoped that the table was full of obnoxious people who didn't know what they wanted and refused to tip.

He gulped down half a can of Red Bull, and groaned as he fought the urge to check toaster prices online.

After cracking his back, he stood up and ran a hand through his hair. He quickly checked himself out in the mirror to make sure he looked presentable before leaving the break room; he may not be part of the service-staff, but he still needed to look good to represent the hotel. Normally he wouldn't have to worry about this – his contact with guests was limited – but if he was going to speak to Lisanna, as Cana had claimed he should, then it was almost definite that he'd be in the public eye for a few minutes at least. He didn't look too bad for someone who'd nearly vomited over a plate of cheese fries the night before.

Lisanna was working at the office attached to the front desk, doing some kind of admin that Laxus didn't care enough about to understand. He walked in and, once she looked up from the monitor, she grinned at him. Laxus didn't frown, but the urge was there. The two of them weren't particularly close.

"Hi," She greeted, annoyingly cheerfully. "I didn't know if Cana had passed on the message."

"Well, here I am," Laxus shrugged.

"There you are," She said with a smile, then waved towards one of the other desk chairs populating the cramped room. Laxus took a seat. "So, I've got something I thought you could help with. A proposition I guess."

Laxus paused for a moment. She wasn't actually going to try and set him up with Elfman, was she? That would be weird, Elfman wasn't Laxus' type.

"There's this guest, you see, who checked in yesterday," She began, before stopping herself. "No, that's not important. Well it is, but not right now," Laxus stayed quiet. Lisanna was a talkative person, and could probably have an entire conversation with herself. "You know Albion house, the old cottage on the outskirts of town that's' all run down."

"Yeah," Laxus nodded, confused. "Think I made up some crap about it being haunted when I was a kid."

"That's the place- that was you! Mirajane told me when I was eight and I had nightmare for weeks, you asshole," Lisanna chastised, and Laxus didn't hide the smirk at the admission. "Whatever, we can talk about that later. Anyway, it recently got a new owner, you see. And I was talking to him last night and a bit during breakfast. So he doesn't know what to do because he can't knock it down and sell the land, and the house is kind of crappy so nobody's actually gonna wanna pay any real money for it, right. So he's kinda stuck; I think he needs the money for something, I didn't wanna ask."

Did she talk to the guests this much?

This was why Laxus always booked into big corporate hotels whenever he stayed away.

"Getting off topic, sorry," She shook her head. "So, I was talking to the new owner, and he thought maybe he could get it sold for more money if it was more functional. Not a total refurbishment or anything, just making sure the lights work and the floorboards won't crumble underfoot. And he's not from the area, so he doesn't know any builders or plumbers or anyone he'll need."

She then stopped talking, and began grinning at Laxus expectantly. "And?"

"Really conforming to the stereotype of strong men being dumb," She muttered, and Laxus found himself happy that his ghost story had apparently given her nightmares. "And I said that we've got a kickass handyman working here part time who could probably help you out. I told him about all the stuff you do around here, and he said he'd be interested in meeting with you!"

"You got me a job interview?" Laxus said, taken aback slightly.

"Well, I don't think it's that formal, but kinda," She grinned. "I heard you're looking for a project to work on, and he said he's willing to pay you for your time if you're any good."

Laxus leant back in the chair, closing his eyes slightly. He didn't have a reputation for reacting particularly well to surprises, and this was rather a big one. Because a woman he barely actually knew had done something pretty damn big for him.

Working on property was something Laxus had been curious about, and it had seemed to be plausible for him. It was essentially what he was doing in the hotel, just on a larger scale and possibly with more of a challenge, which Laxus liked the sound of. There had been a few months where he'd watched house renovation shows when he could, to see if he could get a better understanding on how the field worked. He very quickly learned that, to do what he wanted, he needed the money to buy some run down property to renovate. Money which he didn't have, given he was a handyman working part time in a hotel.

So to have an opportunity given to him out of nowhere was a little overwhelming.

Because it could really help him out. He was more than qualified to modernise a house's inner workings, and was willing to put the work in. And if it went well, he would at worst end up with more experience, some extra money and perhaps a good reference he could give to some other housing developers. It could actually be really good.

Of course, that meant Laxus was immediately distrustful of the offer. Because things didn't just happen.

"So this guy is just gonna trust some random stranger?"

"I think he's kind of desperate, really," Lisanna laughed, a pitying expression on her face. "I think he wants to get out of here as quickly as he can, he's a city boy. But that doesn't matter. He seems like a nice man, and it's not like you can't do the work he wants. You might as well talk to him, see if it works out," She shrugged. "He's in the restaurant I think. I said I'd bring him over if you were interested."

"Erm," Laxus mumbled. "Fuck it, why not?"

The majority of the walk towards the restaurant was spent with Laxus trying to rationalise exactly what had just happened. He glanced at his reflection whenever he could, because if this was as much an opportunity as Lisanna seemed to think that it was, Laxus needed to make a good first impression.

When they walked into the restaurant, Lisanna seemed to scan the room before spotting the person she was looking for. She started to walk again and Laxus followed, eyes eventually settling on the man sitting at the window table.

He wasn't what Laxus expected.

Having expected a stuffy old man, in his fifties and balding, Laxus felt wrongfooted. The man was almost certainly a few years younger than Laxus. He had long and green hair, tied high in a ponytail. He was wearing a sharp looking suit that Laxus didn't recognise the brand of. His facial features were sharp and well structured, no doubt the rest of his body just as maintained under his clothing. As Laxus got closer he could smell a mix of some sharp and cool cologne, and the floral scent left by the clothes' steamers put in every room. When he looked up to Laxus he had sharp and inviting blue eyes, and a somewhat enigmatic expression.

Laxus might be inclined to call him a pretty boy, had his expression been a little less intense.

Just his type. Aesthetically, anyway.

"Mr Justine," Lisanna said in greeting. "How'd your lunch?"

"Very pleasant," The man said, glancing for a second to the chicken salad he was eating and then back to Laxus.

"This is the man I told you about, our handyman," Lisanna explained, nudging Laxus. The blonde stepped forward and offered his hand to shake. The man did so, with a firm grasp.

"Laxus," The blonde said. "It's nice to meet you, sir."

"You too," The man replied, and Laxus couldn't help but notice how smooth his voice was. But it wasn't the time, so he retracted his hand as the other man spoke. "I'm Freed, as you've perhaps been told. I expect your colleague has explained why I wish to speak with you?"

"The Albion House, right?" Laxus asked. "You got lumbered with the place and need help with the electrics."

"Essentially, yes," Freed nodded. "The only thing that's actually remained intact is the building's structure. The wiring, the plumbing, the heating system, and I'm sure there's a lot more that I'm not aware of that has also been destroyed. I wish to get the building to a point where it's functioning so I can sell it. It doesn't need to be nice to look at, just work. Is that something you think you can do?"

"Well, I'm good with all that shit- stuff," Laxus winced, glancing at the table, and missing the amused expression on Freed's face. "I've done a lot of work here, and in some other houses when they need it. Unless there's some really unusual crap, I should be fine."

"Take a seat, Mr Dreyar."

At the sudden request, Laxus found himself doing what he was told. He sat opposite Freed, and waited a little awkwardly while Freed ordered another tea for himself. He thought about telling him that Lisanna wasn't actually part of the wait-staff, but she smiled and said it'll be right out before retreating to the kitchen. He frowned as she walked away, only to quickly turn back and give him two thumbs up and a large smile. He almost rolled his eyes at the stupid action, but looked back to the man who might soon employ him.

"I think it's best we be honest with one another," Freed continued, and Laxus nodded slightly. "I have no interest nor practical skill when it comes to homeownership and renovations. I can learn, and I'm not an impractical man in general, but a lot of the work will be done by you."

"I can do that," Laxus said with a nod. "How would that work with the, erm… payment, if that ain't too forward?"

"No, that's fair," Freed said, pulling out his phone from his breast pocket. "I haven't had long to look into it, but I plan to pay you by the hour; I don't know how long it will take, so I thought that made more sense than a single payment. I'll clarify how much you get each hour when I find out the average pay a skilled workman gets. Of course we can debate this if you don't think it's fair, but I expect it'll be a good wage"

Laxus probably looked a bit stupid for a moment. He was expecting either a vague answer or a simple 'I'll pay you a grand and expect it to be done by the end of the month.' Not a lot of… legal sounding crap.

"That sounds good," Laxus said after a moment, nodding. "How bad's the house, if y' know? The outside ain't great but I'd like to know what I'm getting into."

"The outside is the best part, I'm afraid," Freed chuckled a little bitterly, and Laxus glanced up at his face again. On his handsome features – and damn, up close they were pretty handsome – there were slight lines of worry beside his eyes. "I didn't take many pictures as I wasn't in the best of moods, but this is fairly reflective of the entire place."

Freed flicked on his phone a few times, and then showed his screen to Laxus. It took a few seconds for Laxus to actually understand what that was, and when he did he let out an almost impressed sigh and leant back in his chair.

"That's the circuit box?" He laughed, and Freed nodded. "It looks like…"

"It had a violent orgy with a jackhammer, baseball bat and a box of explosives?" Freed completed, and Laxus let out a short bark of laughter, shocking himself.

"Fuck, sorry. I shouldn't laugh," Laxus winced, though he was grinning. When he glanced towards Freed again, he openly saw him smirking at him. If nothing else, at least this proved his boss had a sense of humour. "I didn't expect it, sorry. It does look pretty bad though, if the rest of the house is like that then it's probably gonna take a while to get the place in a liveable state."

"I assumed as much," Freed said with a sigh. "I only intend to stay here for a week, I should clarify. My office may allow me to extend that for another week. I'm hoping that, by then, you'll have begun work and can do so without me. I'll keep in regular contact of course, but I won't be here in person often."

"That's okay. I can deal with that," Laxus nodded as he spoke. He liked working alone. "What do you do, if you don't mind me askin'?"

"I'm a lawyer," Freed waved his hand as he returned his phone to his jacket pocket.

"Fuck. That's pretty-" Hot. "Impressive."

"Thank you," Freed nodded a little. "I don't mean to be abrupt, but I've got to clear some details up with my office, so I'll have to leave you," He pulled a small piece of paper from his pocket. "Here's my card, call me in the evening. We'll discuss things further then. Good day, Laxus."

"Yeah," Laxus nodded. "Speak later."

Freed nodded, and left the restaurant. Laxus allowed his eyes to trail over his retreating figure, roaming over his broad shoulders to his taut waist, then, for a split-second, to his ass. He glanced away, only to see Cana watching him with a judgmental, shit-eating grin.

"I'm gonna fix the fucking toaster," Laxus muttered with a slight blush, standing abruptly. Cana kept smirking. "Fuck off."

This rumor is CONFIRMED. 

In episode 5.04 (The End) the original script says: 

But instead, we become this. The only thing I think we have left, Dean and me, is each other. (unadorned sincerity) If Dean says it’s time to go out in a blaze of glory, win or lose, so be it. I’m in. But then…  (smiles easily at Dean) That’s just how I roll.

This script (which can be seen here) was won by Laura (tumblr user hidefan) in an auction at Rising Con in 2010. She posted it on her tumblr after having the script signed by Misha Collins at the same convention the following year. (x) 

In the episode, Castiel says: 

Except I used to belong to a much better club. And now I’m powerless. I’m hapless, I’m hopeless. I mean, why the hell not bury myself in women and decadence, right? It’s the end, baby. That’s what decadence is for. Why not bang a few gongs before the lights go out? But then that’s, that’s just how I roll.

(From Supernatural Wiki’s Transcript)

Therefore, the line was changed between the original script and the final version in the show, and this rumor is Confirmed.

(If you’ve got a supernatural rumor you’d like fact-checked, peruse our Rumor Masterpost or send us an ask!)

Notes: 

Laura (hidefan) has the entire script, but this was the most significant difference between the script and the show. 

If you’re curious about how season 9 will fit in with the current year (since it will be 2014 halfway through the season) and the End!verse, check out our posts here and here.

Ethereum Skyrockets Past $4K Tapping a New ATH, Ether Dominance Jumps to 20% – Markets and Prices Bitcoin News

The price of ethereum, the second-largest crypto asset in terms of market valuation, touched an all-time high (ATH) on Monday, capturing $4,246 per unit. Ethereum has been on a tear during the last year against the U.S. dollar, gaining a whopping 2,129% in 12 months.

Ethereum Captures Fresh Price Highs, ‘Flippening’ Begins to Trend

Ethereum (ETH) reached a new ATH this Monday, tapping $4,246 per ether. ETH is up over 6% during the last 24 hours and 21.9% over the course of the week. Against bitcoin (BTC), ETH is up 19% during the course of the last seven days. 30-day stats shows ETH is up 96% and 90-day data shows ether is up 136%.

Ethereum’s price rise has been dragging bitcoin’s (BTC) leading dominance down a great deal, as BTC only commands 43% today. ETH dominance is 19.6% and it’s been rising higher as each day passes. Data shows that reported volume for ETH is around $54.7 billion, while “real volume” stats from Messari indicates volume could be around $12.2 billion.

Since ETH dominance has risen significantly, crypto enthusiasts believe the crypto-asset could possibly flip BTC. The term “flippening” is trending on Twitter and a number of people are assessing the possibility of ETH dominating BTC.

“Maxis catching up on reality,” one person tweeted on Monday. “We are now just a little over 2x away. The flippening might indeed take a lot less than 5 years,” he added.

Ethereum Onchain Data Continues to Outpace Bitcoin, $85 Billion Locked in Defi

Data also shows that ETH is processing more transactions and settling more money than BTC in recent months. Holders making money at the current price is 100%, according to Into the Block data. Concentration of large ETH holders is 41% and correlation with BTC is only 0.09% on Monday afternoon. Transaction demographics between the east and west is 50/50 for Ethereum today, and 1-year holders composition by time held is 57%.

The total-locked value (TVL) in decentralized finance (defi) right now is more than $85 billion and a great majority of defi money leverages the ETH chain. Further, large sums of funds are frequently moving on the Ethereum network, as the past seven days of $100k transactions saw a massive $303 billion settled last week.
