Airstrip One (1984)

idk why i keep thinking that Frank Woods would have a ranch somewhere? like there’s no animals or anything it’s just land and a comfortable little house dead in the middle of it

so of course he tells himself that it’s logical that afab Bell shows up at his doorstep like a beaten dog two months after the last time he saw her in Solovetsky, with less than ideally healed gunshot wounds from her second assassination attempt. Of course, it’s just that here’s a lot less likely that anyone would find her

And he takes her in, because it might’ve been fake for Adler but she’s fucking tore through hell right at Frank’s side with ample opportunity to either kill him herself or just let him get turned into mincemeat by the reds. She’s ended up under him more than once too, shaking and clumsy and laughing against his mouth in the residual adrenaline rush. More chances to off him, or to try and leverage his attraction to her, that she didn’t take. That Frank’s now convinced she wouldn’t take, not because she isn’t capable of it, she just likes sex too much to use it as a weapon.

She likes Frank too much for it, he realizes in the couple days it takes for her to stop looking over her shoulder with every creaking floorboard. When she asks him to drive her into town to exchange the small fortune in Swiss francs she smuggled into the country all the way from Zurich. He can’t fucking help it, the question that stumbles out of him without more than a second’s thought: ‘Why didn’t you go back to Perseus?’

Bell shifts, looks from Frank to the copy of John Hersey’s Hiroshima he’d given to her after a comment on nuclear armament even he thought was tasteless, the same book he caught her crying over months later and now sits in her bag, half buried in foreign bills.

‘I couldn’t,’ she says, then a minute later, as if it just occurred to her, ‘he’d kill me anyway, after Solovetsky’.

It takes a few more weeks for her to end up in his bed again, and she still smiles as soon as he nudges his dick inside her, still laughs at the burn of his beard on her neck. She still comes clutching onto him like he’ll disappear or leave, discard her as soon as he fills her. Bell mumbles out his name and Frank feels his heart caught between her fingers as much as his hair is at the moment, because for her that’s the most reasonable fear to have.

So he doesn’t. It’s not like he was gonna leave his own fucking house, which in a way feels like the only thing he’s ever really owned, but he won’t kick her out either. And he doesn’t mention her to a single soul who knows her, not even Mason. Especially not when she starts going out, more fearless each time; when she starts to teach a self defense class in town on Fridays or taking drives to the next county over whenever she has a nightmare, just to convince herself that she’s not in a fake town, and she comes back with a cheeseburger for him each time.

Cause then she starts to become his Bell again. The one capable of dead devotion, who chose to do the right thing in the end. The Bell that died twice and came back better every time, that saw an old worn fuck like him and called it home.

Bell, who he accidentally wakes one night when he comes sweating out of his own bad dreams and offers to join him for a cigarette out in the front porch, who convinces him to put on a sweater and settles on his lap in silence, blowing little smoke rings into the gold light of dawn.

The woman who cries against his shoulder when he lets spill that he loves her like horrible word vomit, and tells him she loves him too.

would you rather have access to any hangar anywhere or have clearance for any airspace?

hanger anywhere, they got drinks in some of those things

It does make me wince to see people reduce Yonoi down to his relationship with Jack when he is a literal fascist. He was stationed in Manchuria ffs theres no sidestepping his incredibly violent, active participation in the imperial japanese war machine. How his driving goal in the film was the construction of the airstrip to assist in the IJA's efforts in Indonesia (which he wants to have the POWs build). How he's desperately ashamed he wasn't able to assist in the Ni Ni Roku incident or at least had a 'valiant' death alongside his compatriots. theres no avoiding it. but it's never talked about.

My favorite part of trying to model a character in 3d is going "jesus christ how horrifying" every 20 minutes or so

[calandrinon]

look I am all for individual freedom to an extent, but if one Australian needs the Flying Doctors every two minutes then maybe that one Australian should consider inpatient treatment, or at least moving closer to a hospital

Just... Elden ring whole obsession with 3... It's just.... Mmmmhh, but also it's always a trio but a duo is somehow connected on a stronger way: Morgott and Mohg begin omen vs their God like brother, Godwyn. Radagon and Marika on their separate shapes making great changes in the world vs the elden beast. But it doesn't seem to be the case with the Carian family it seemed like all of them had great care and love for each of their sibling. Mmmmhh...

Rural european here. All cars can go off-road. A lot of them can even get back on the road after.

We used to have field cars as teens, basically cars at the end of their life cycle, licence plates removed and sold for dirt cheap. You will learn how to get a car on and off the road, when you have an entire field to play with, several forest roads of varying conditions, and a lot of time to kill after harvest before the fields get turned for winter.

As a farmer.. homie thinking he is hot shit for hauling ONE BALE is so fucking funny let me put a rack on the back of my 02 dodge and i can haul fuckin 10 bales without needing the headers

Grand Canyon Dirt Strip Landing?

The Cliff Dweller’s airstrip is at the edge of Marble Canyon in Grand Canyon National park’s restricted airspace. But if you get prior permission and stay within 3 nm of the airstrip as you descend or ascend, then it’s all yours. Strange how the GPS175 screen is completely black. The two lower instruments too. This looks like I’m high, so this must be the flyover I did first before landing. The…
