sitting here desperately trying to figure out who the big three of gone is and my brain is flicking between “sam, dekka and brianna” and “caine, drake and diana” before realising realistically, it’s actually albert, quinn and lana 😭 without them, everyone would have either starved to death or bled out

[abcwordsurge]

[aayo-whatt]

Who was your favorite Gone character?? Along with your least?

(Its 2 am and in re-reading plague help me 😭😭)

oof okk

from book one? i lovee drake and edilio unnaturally, drake was such an asshole for no reason and i love it and edilio is literally baby, he can do anything, if he's barbie im his ken y'know? ok, not sure who i hate from book one,, maybe orc? he was kinda a dick, but i feel like he was just doing what was expected of him albert a bit? but then again he did run a maccas, and he found that cat so probably not.. i don't think i really hated anyone from the first book, just a chunk of people i either didn't think were relevant or just didn't hate or love-?

from the whole series? QUINN he is literally my child, i would die for him over and over and i wouldn't care JUST LET HIM HAVE HIS BOAT and i vaguely remember zil doing something to hunter, and we can't have that so probably zil (<- was going to say gaia, but it seemed too dry of a response-)

ohmygod- i wish that could be me brooo 😭😭😭

Sorting Gone characters into CHB's cabins :D

1.- Sam Temple Son of Apollo. Ya know, the suns and light thing... also the appearence... and hes lovable as Apollo. If not, Son of Poseidon because surf 2.- Quinn Gaither Son of Poseidon, loves surfing, loves fishing, hes good at swimming, and yes 3.- Edilio Escobar this one was hard. For one side, Edilio is a leader, he is smart and he is... yeah Edilio. So I decided son of Athena, but you can change my mind. 4.- Albert Hillsborough Son of Hermes/Athena So, he is a business man xdxd. Hermes is the god of Commerce, but he is also very, VERY smart, and he could also be Athena's son 5.- Caine Soren Son of Zeus Because hes a leader and he is cruel and he wants to have s*x and is selfish (no offense I love Caine trust me) 6.- My wife, a.k.a Dekka Talent Maybe daughter of Ares, but like Frank more than Clarisse. Or maybe a Hunter of Artemis. Maybe both. I don't really care, I love her 7.- Diana Ladris Daughter of Aphrodite?? Because she is pretty and she knows it, I mean, that type of "beautiful". Or some type of daughter of Athena, because she is smart. Or Hermes, because she is sassy and cunning. 8.- Brianna Berenson- Its getting harder!! Daughter of Hermes. She is fast and loves being fast. Idk, Hermes's personality just matches with hers. 9.-Astrid Ellison Daughter of Athena. Or of Ares. Or maybe a mix between them. No explanaiton. 10.- Howard (instert his last name, i forgot it) Son of Dyonisus. Again, everyone knows why 11.- Mary Terrafino I couldn't set her in one cabin as a daughter of ____. I'll say Workshipper of Hestia <3 12.-Toto (Last oneeee) Son of Temis, godess/titan (i cant remember) of justice and truth. Because.. his power obviously.

Would you like a part two??

I’ve seen people knock Josefina’s school outfit for being the same as her meet outfit, but I really like it. Again, it seems to be inspired by a painting, this time by Carlos Orduña Barrera:

If there’s one thing I love about Josefina’s collection, it’s that all of her outfits fit the natural dyes that have been made been made by indigenous Mexicans for centuries. Love the use of indigo.

(The Victoria and Albert Museum)

(Ebay)

On another note, I’m really surprised Josefina’s story never covered Día de los Muertos. The over-reaching theme of her books is about her learning to live with the grief of losing her Mamá. Día de los Muertos is an absolutely beautiful tradition for grieving, celebrating, and keeping lost loved ones in your life. In October, I was doing a 31 Days of Graves social media challenge, and one of the cemeteries I visited was in a very rural part of Hillsborough County where a lot of Mexican farmers and farm workers are buried. It was spectacular. Easily the most colorful cemetery I’ve ever visited. I would love to maybe see a short story of Josefina and her family going to visit, clean, and decorate Mamá’s grave on Día de los Muertos. Plus, how fucking fun would an ofrenda playset be?

February 10, 2024

The day before a man fatally shot John Walter Lay in his favorite Tampa dog park, Lay stood in the park and recorded a video.

He had just had a run-in with a man who, according to Lay’s friends and family, had been harassing him at the park for months, hurling homophobic slurs and threatening him.

Standing near one of the park’s towering trees, the morning sun shining on his face, Lay talked into his phone’s camera.

“So this morning while I’m walking — and we’re the only two here — he comes up to me and screams at me, ‘You’re going to die, you’re going to die,’ and I asked him to just leave me alone, and so far he has,” Lay says in the video.

Friends say that the next morning, at the same park and at about the same time as the previous morning’s encounter, the man shot Lay dead. He was 52.

As of Thursday, the shooter has not been arrested or charged. The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office has released few details about what happened and didn’t issue a news release about the shooting until four days after it occurred, and only after a Tampa Bay Times reporter asked about it. The agency said the Hillsborough State Attorney’s Office will decide whether to file criminal charges in the case.

The sheriff’s office on Thursday confirmed that 65-year-old Gerald Declan Radford was the shooter.

In a text message to a Times reporter, Radford indicated he shot Lay in self-defense.

“I was attacked. I defended myself. End of story,” the text said.

He sent a second text advising the Times to contact the sheriff’s office for information. When asked for a phone interview, he responded that the sheriff’s office has his phone, and he declined a request to meet in person, saying that he was “in no fit state.”

Asked if he had an attorney, he responded: “I have done nothing wrong.”

Lay’s family and friends told the Times that they don’t believe Radford’s account. They said Lay had been going out of his way to avoid Radford and they believed he would only have gotten in a fight to defend himself.

Albert Darlington, Lay’s friend and landlord, said Radford, who goes by Dec, sent him a text the next day claiming Lay “attacked me at the park and I had to defend myself.”

“In my opinion, there’s no way in hell this is really self-defense,” said Darlington, 68. “For over a year, Dec has done nothing but harass Walt. He screams and hollers and calls him a f----t every time he gets to the dog park. He’ll sit there and he’ll say, ‘I’d like to punch him right in the f--king mouth’ ... and it has gotten worse and worse and worse.”

Last Request of Tom Brown

By Mike Simmons An article in the May 13, 1921, edition of the Pensacola News Journal reported that Deputy Sheriff Walker of Hillsborough County had been busy searching for the request of Tom Brown for his last dinner before hanging. Brown was tried and convicted for the murder of the aged merchant of Lutz, Captain Albert Chambers. Chambers, a well-known steamboat captain, was robbed and killed…

'I've lost everything': Homeowners lose everything after rural Shepody, N.B. home destroyed by fire

Two photo albums full of memories of her family. That's about all Lee Walker could salvage from the ruins of her home on Thursday. 

Lee and Mike Walker's house in Shepody, N.B., was destroyed in a fire Wednesday afternoon.

"Our pictures when we got married," Lee said to Mike as she flips through one of the albums.

Not only is their home and all their belongings gone, so too are their pets.

Their dog Harry and cat Hope were both lost in the fire.

"If I only could find Harry," said Lee as she continued to sift through the wreckage.

The house, which the Walkers guess is over 200 years old, had to be demolished by an excavator because of hot spots that couldn't be put out.

Riverside-Albert Volunteer Fire Department Deputy Chief Daniel O'Hare said the building was fully engulfed when they arrived shortly after 3:30 p.m. Wednesday.

"It was so dry," said O'Hare. "It really wasn't anything we could put out quick. It took a lot of water."

No one was injured in the fire.

Riverside-Albert received mutual aid from the Hillsborough and Alma fire departments.

Firefighters were on scene for close to six hours.

O'Hare said the cause of the fire is not yet known.

The couple has lost everything and now must start over, but it won't be easy because they don't have any insurance.

They were 40 minutes away in Riverview, N.B., at the time of the fire paying their property taxes.

"By the time we got back, there was basically nothing left," said Mike.

Mike said the pets are definitely their biggest loss.

"They're like kids as you get older," said Mike. "The funny thing is the little dog, he wanted to go with us yesterday."

Lee said both of her pets had a lot of personality.

"I lost everything. My babies I can't replace," said Lee. "Everything else, they're just material things."

The couple have spoken with their neighbours and friends and they appreciate their support.

"Albert County is a place you want to be. Everybody's friendly," said Lee. "We all help each other. We all pull together."

Michelle Walker, Mike and Lee's daughter, said they moved from Moncton, N.B., to Shepody 25 years ago when she was 15.

She found out from her daughter that her old home was on fire.

"I called my mom and she didn't answer. I called my dad. He said, 'I'm here, I'm just watching our house burn down,'" said Michelle.

Michelle's parents are staying with her sister for the time being. She said her mother works in home care with seniors in the Albert County area.

"She drives around and spends her days with the seniors in the community," said Michelle. "She said last night that she was going to go to work. She lost all of her scrubs in the fire. They didn't have anything. Just what was on their backs."

The Walkers are trying to figure out what they are going to do next.

They have a cottage in the Salisbury, N.B., area, but it isn't suitable for living in during the winter.

As for getting new pets, Lee isn't so sure about that right now.

"They're irreplaceable. They can't be replaced," said Lee. "You can't replace a life."

Michelle has started a GoFundMe page to help raise money for her parents. As of 3:30 p.m. Thursday, the fundraiser had raised just over $2,000.

happy fayz day losers ! here’s some alignment charts to celebrate (part 2)

[jinxiguess]

how do you think the story/characters would change if “gone” was set in the 1900s?

I really don't know much about the 1900s to be completely honest but it would probably be even MORE depressing since they would probably run out of food and resources eV faster. Albert would probably not be as relevant since his thing was like running the mcdonalds and there would be no mcdonalds. I feel like there would be even more of a gap between the pb kids and the coates kids which would probably cause even more issues
