All's Fair in Love & Chaos (II)

2nd instalment (I - II - III - IV)

a short blurb style mini-series in collaboration with @unstablereader no real plot, just vibes and comedy.

Synopsis: soulmate au, everyone's soulmate's initials become visible on their wrist when the last person in the bond 'comes of age' (I've left the age ambiguous because their may be mature insinuations later on in the story). As luck would have it, and much to everyone's horror; it appeared that you, Barty Crouch Junior, and Sirius Black were soulmates

poly!DeathStar x fem!reader

Though this soulmate thing had caused Sirius a bit of grief so far, he was feeling rather chuffed about it today. He was currently sitting with you in the library; you were currently doing research for your Herbology project, and he was pretending to work on his Transfiguration essay.

It was an odd sight, he was sure; Sirius Black found in the library working quietly without being involved in some sort of mischief. It was no secret he didn’t exactly take his school work seriously, but that was only because he didn’t have to; classes came easily to him and getting good grades didn’t require any extra work on his part.

But…

But, he had a pretty little thing sitting across from him, that was certifiably his, and she was spending time in the library, which meant he was, too. 

It was a precarious arrangement, but Sirius found he didn’t much mind when the unpleasantness wasn’t around. 

Unfortunately, the unpleasantness was insistent on following him around.

“Junior.” He growled lowly as a figure sidled up behind you and cast a shadow over your shared table.

“Black.” Barty sneered before turning a saccharine smile in your direction. “Hello, sweet darling angel.” He cooed, earning him a scoff from Sirius.

“Hello, Barty… what are you doing here?”

Barty laughed as if you’d made a particularly funny joke. “I’m here to spend time with my best girl, of course!” 

“Like hell you are!” Sirius barked, earning him indignant shushes from the other students around him.

“Barty… you agreed to this.” You tried placating.

“Agreed to share you with Black?” Barty squawked. “I’d sooner start wearing red and gold unironically.”

“Junior, this schedule was your idea. I get the library study time on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. You get the library study time on Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays. It’s Tuesday; get lost.” Sirius lamented.

“But I don’t want to!” Barty pouted particularly petulantly, even stomping his foot for good measure. 

“Well, you can take it up with management.” Sirius taunted.

“You just sodding said yourself that this was my plan; I am the management!” Barty countered. 

Sirius mustered his most Noble and Ancient menacing glare from countless Black ancestors. The Slytherin boy had no problem reciprocating it, and it wasn’t until you intervened that the boys broke the silent war being waged between them.

“Barty, I…I think you should go see what Pandora is up to? And…maybe we can sit together at dinner?” You offered hopefully. Sirius was simultaneously grateful you were trying to rid them of the unpleasantness and also terribly jealous that Barty was going to share a meal with you.

“Yes! Okay, I’ll go get Pandora to help me organize a romantic meal for us tonight.” Barty beamed excitedly.

“Please. How romantic can a meal in the Great Hall be?” Sirius sneered, albeit slightly worried that Barty may in fact succeed.

“You mind your fuckin’ business, Black. Salazar’s balls you’re a pest.” 

“I’m the pest!?” Sirius exclaimed, but you were quick to place a conciliatory hand on Barty’s forearm.

“Please, Barty?”

Barty looked down at you with a pained expression that Sirius could understand all too well.

You were impossible to say no to.

Barty looked between you and Sirius a few times before groaning exasperatedly. 

“Fine.” He relented, pressing a smacking kiss to your cheek and stalking off.

Sirius let out a sigh of relief as you turned back towards the table with an embarrassed smile.

“Oh!” Sirius heard, causing him to let his head fall with a thump to the table before him. “I almost forgot.”

And Sirius lifted his head from the table to watch as Barty pulled at the collar of your uniform shirt to expose part of your neck and began sucking a bruise into your skin.

Sirius spit out a shocked guffaw as he watched Barty pull back, admire his work, press a chaste kiss to it and replace your collar to its proper place before leaving the library for good. 

“What…” Sirius started as he turned his attention from the door he’d been keeping an eye on to ensure that menace didn’t return to continue tormenting him back to you, just as you were embarrassedly rubbing at your neck. “...in the buggering fuck was that?”

“That’s just Barty.” You replied timidly. 

Sirius let out another scoff, eyes still glued to your neck. “Are you okay?”

You chuckled at that and offered Sirius a smile that was equal parts apologetic and equal parts teasing. “I’m pretty sure that’s his way of showing…affection? Or possibly marking his territory; he’s done it before when Diggory spent a, quote, ‘unreasonable amount of time complimenting my potion’.” 

Sirius relaxed a little at that. He supposed if you were comfortable with it, he wouldn’t push it. And though Sirius clearly had better impulse control than your other soulmate, he couldn’t deny how much he was tempted to do the same.

“Alright then.” Sirius relented, allowing you to return to your research.

“I hope you know you’ve just opened up the need to schedule meals now though.”

“For fuck’s sake.” You groaned, plopping your head down into your textbook.

Since I'm locked in here's some thoughts abt Barbara and Tuesday, and even bits of Bonnette bc why not

Anyways

Are there any sort of lore abt the UTTU cards? Does Pandora make those cards, and does Barbara help w those too? Cause I'm skimming through the new UTTU cards yeah, and all the cards have some sort of card name yes, and this one got me thinking the most

Cause it'd be so fun if Barbara had a hand in some of these cards bc this one is a bit too specific

In Tuesday's character story, Barbara is revealed to have a friend named Bonnette, and ofc, Bonnette looks like Tuesday and perhaps even act like her a bit to the point Barbara herself believed that perhaps it really is her friend

The thing is, during all that, Barbara had also said that she had lost Bonnette to a place where the wind can't go

Which brings us to the card, The Wind Halts. The wind couldn't find Bonnette anymore bc she's gone, possibly sifted by the Storm, Barbara had no means of finding out if Bonnette is still around or not, the wind can't trace her, Barbara couldn't find her. The wind that led her back to Bonnette came to an abrupt halt.

But then why that specifically, why that shot of Tuesday

Well, bc it's the same accessory that Bonnette had

Makes me think that when Barbara saw that same accessory, and despite Tuesday being like that™, she had some hopes that her friend is still there, that perhaps somehow someway the friend she knows would remember her

Idk but this kinda hurts cause imagine seeing your friend again, but it's not your friend, not the one you know, this one is different, yet they talk the same, act the same, and sound the same. But the wind feels different, it feels colder, yet there's still some semblance of comfort as it breezes through her fleece, it's a familiar feeling, a familiar touch, it's the same familiar wind, just colder. But it embraces her all the same

Plus, smth fun now, in one of Tuesday's other UTTU cards, the Barbara doll was featured hahah

Imagine Barbara seeing this card and just does "yes, that's me, under the lamp" lmfaoo

It's fun given in 2.5 we get a new lobby, and we see the very same Barbara doll w the Tuesday doll your honour I am NEVER shutting up abt this it's just so cute

Look at them🥹

The fact that even in the motel halls you'd see the same dolls too (unfortunately, I don't have a screenshot of it😔 so if anyone here has it pls send it my way🥹)

[olympip]

𐚁֙࿐ missin' you ! gojo satoru ︱ your ex-husband misses you so much, but most importantly he misses your pussy too...

𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓼 ... mdni, soft dom! gojo, sweet and passionate sex, tummy bulging, dacryphillia, missionary, creampie, breeding, unprotected sex, gojo cries (?!?!?), remarriage, body worship, somewhat fluff towards the end, and aftercare :p, lmk if i miss any !

it's been years since you haven't seen satoru, but you didn't see him for a reason. it's been 5 years since you last saw him, and you wish you could see how he's doing or how he has changed. is he still the same since you last saw him? or did he change completely? those questions filled up your mind, making you stare into space as you zoned out thinking about this. but really, the reason why you left him was from this stupid arranged marriage that his and your parents had planned before, using this for business inquiries and to build a better bond between the two of the families.

your friendship with him ruined ever since this happened, not having proper conversations together and all you could respond to him was with a dry "ok." and he didn't clap back at you whatsoever. you felt guilty and might aswell play the role on being his wife, but you couldn't. he was your friend, and he would of course be surprised if you gave him some affection on a random tuesday and probably gain an ick towards you. that's what you at least thought before, but for satoru it was the complete opposite, he knew that he's doing this arranged marriage for buisness and not for actual love but damn he really wanted to get your attention towards him.

he didn't do much during these times but to just mind his own business, silently craving for your attention. he somewhat enjoyed those silent afternoons with you, being comfortable in your presence even though you didn't say anything. you were his safe place and he was yours, but the both of you didn't admit to it and that's how you ended up in this situation. you thought that maybe it was best to have a divorce with him, your mind was overthinking with nasty thoughts on what could happen if you were still with him until this day. once you brought up the conversation on having a divorce with him, he understood and didn't take things too far. you both knew that if you go separate ways things would be better, maybe at least find true love and not marry your best friend, have kids with someone that loves you and not forcefully have babies with your best friend just because your mother said so.

once the divorce actually happened you never felt so guilty in your entire life, satoru might've looked like he didn't mind about it but he also felt guilty aswell, he knew he would miss you for a while; missing seeing your pretty face, your smile, your voice, your fragile body, he just miss seeing you. and you knew you felt the same way as he did, but it was for the best, you two were eighteen when this even happened anyway so why even bother? getting married so young was no good for you, you both weren't even prepared from doing so. of course satoru might've been a good friend, but a good husband? you didn't think so, but maybe seeing him as a good boyfriend didn't bother you.

-

you sighed, drinking the last bit of the whiskey that was left on the glass, your mind now focused to reality after being lost in your thoughts. you closed your eyes for a moment, letting this whole situation sink in into your brain as jazz music filled in the air, the saxophone letting out its melody and creating a eargasm to you. the strong scent of alcohol and various type of drinks lingered through the air, and the dimmly lit lights in the bar made the scenery more romantic for the couples around the area.

you rested your cheek on the palm of your hand, causing the charms of your pandora bracelet to jingle a little. you were getting lost in thought again before you heard a somewhat deep and a familiar voice speak next to you, a small 'hey' being heard as you turned your head around to see who was talking to you,"... you alright?" the man asked and that's when your eyes widened in shock,"no fucking way..." you whispered to yourself, your ex-husband is right next to you, at the bar, asking if you were okay.

satoru chuckled, amused seeing your surprised reaction. his looks changed a little, he seemed more broad, more muscular and beefy than before, his hair grew a little longer and he was more handsome. his ocean eyes glimmering within the dimmly lit lights only to make him sexier, his tight fitted black shirt showing each muscle in his body, his shrivled abs flexing whenever he moved and his biceps having little veins along the way. his hands were bigger and a little rough, only to be paired with more veins aswell. oh how you regretted on divorcing this man.

"satoru?" you whispered, turning your body to him as you looked at him up and down, satoru grinned before he spoke again,"that's me..." his expression seemed to be cocky, enjoying your expression,"wha- it's been so long..." you stammered a little in your sentence, your fingers fiddling around as you felt a little nervous,"i know it has, surprised seeing you here alone so i thought you needed some company," oh that made you have butterflies, you awkwardly smiled before turning your head to the side and satoru sneered, seeing you get shy all of a sudden. admiring your black dress, the way the fabric hugged your curves, and the way your breasts were all perked up, your lips puckering up as the gloss shined through the dim lights, your eyes averting his gaze to look somewhere else, and how you bounced your leg.

"gettin' all shy now that you've seen me after five years, pretty girl?" he teased at you, keeping that cocky aura within him as you grumbled in annoyance, you were supposed to ignore him after all of those years, but the way you wanted to get on your knees right now and give him the most toe curling head of his life as a way to show him how much you missed him, but of course you couldn't, not in public.

"shut up.." that's all you could say, trying your hardest to hold back the urge on doing something inappropriate. satoru raised an eyebrow, his shit eating grin still plastered on his face coming just a little closer to you and his eyes lingering around your body, noticing your nervous body language,"y'know..." he said slowly, his big hand moving to touch your thigh and gently caressing it, taking things a little further and making your heart rate speed up,"i know you miss me, and you know i miss you too, so..." his lips moved closer to your ear, your nostrils taking the scent from his expensive cologne on his collar while he whispered softly to your ear, causing your body to shudder from his deep voice and making you feel more aroused, tightly crossing your legs and holding yourself back from soaking up your panties with your juices, but it was no use and you're already wet.

"let's give this another chance, 'kay?"

he grabbed you by the hips, making you sit comfortably on his lap while he still didn't let go of your lips. his tounge dancing with yours desperately as his soft whimpers fill in the air, your delicate hands brushing through his white hair as you pressed your body closer to his, closing the gap in-between the both of you. his grip was firm but also gentle, soft pleads escaped your lips, clinging onto him as his hands trailed down to the hem of your dress, slowly lifting it up to reveal more of your thighs.

you moaned softly, gently bucking your hips against his and hinting him to go further along with this which only made satoru even more exctied. he let's go of your lips, taking a moment to catch his breath after a five minute make out session even though he could spend days and nights kissing your sweet and soft lips. he huffed, his hot breath fanning over your parted lips as his hands went under your dress, feeling the lacy fabric of your panties before pulling them slightly down,"satoru..." you whined again, your hands clenching on his broad shoulders as your body trembled.

"baby..." he whispered before stripping away your panties, the dress still being left on but it was an easier access to enter your pussy, although he did want to see you all nude and in display for him, seeing your nipples perk up and harden and your inner thighs being covered in your slick, watching your tits bounce by every time he thrusts deep into your sensitive pussy, that's what he wants to do later on. satoru shivered, biting his lip in anticipation before he immediately switched positions with a blink of an eye. he's now ontop of you, his large figure covering almost half of your body.

his hands slip into your dress again, lifting it higher until he sees your tummy and your drooling pussy on full display just for him and him only, oh how he missed seeing you this way. you grew a bit embarrassed by it, turning your head to the side before satoru grabbed your chin to look at him,"look at me pretty girl, no need to be shy." he turned soft all of a sudden, his cocky aura fading away and he was more careful and gentle around you, even though later on he would fuck your brains out until you turn into mush. your eyes followed his, locking eyes with one another as your chest was heaving up and down, his eyes followed every inch of you; the way your lips parted and the lipgloss almost loosing its shine, the way your pretty eyes sparkle whenever you look at him, and the way your eyelashes batted and fluttured from each move he made towards you. he adored you, you were so mesmerizing, so breathtaking, and he was a one lucky bastard to have you.

"god you're so beautiful..." he muttured softly, his voice dripping like sweet honey that was music to your ears, his soft lips kissed your cheeks, your eyes, your forehead, your nose, and finally your lips. he kisses you with much passion, spilling out his love and devotion for you,"i miss you so much.." his lips traveled down to your neck, peppering it with small pecks as his nose took in the scent your french vanilla perfume, your scent making him even more addicted to you. you couldn't help but blush, his breath tickling your skin as your body shuddered, causing your nipples to perk up again. he realized that and smirked against your soft skin, his hands moving lower down to your hips before he let's go for a moment. with full anticipation he started getting desperate, his hands finding a way to his belt before he eagerly unbuckled it, biting his lip as he didn't even bother looking down to his pants. all he was focused on was you.

"i miss the way you feel..." he breathed out, finally managing to undo his belt that all could be left to seen was his boxers, his bulge being visible in the thin fabric that a little wet patch of pre cum was being shown,"i miss the way you touch me..." his hands fiddled around your dress again, almost wanting it to rip off,"i miss the way you kissed me..." his fingers slowly managed to strip away your dress, leaving you completely nude,"and god- i miss your voice..." his voice cracked and he felt completely overwhelmed, his eyes drinking you in and his pupils dilating. his pleading expression made you feel in awe, how could you leave this man? he's still the same from before, although his looks slightly changed. your breath hitched, as his hands took yours, your fingers intertwining with his as he felt your soft hands making contact with his,"please... take me back..." he pleaded, biting his lower lip again as you looked down to see his erection.

your breath hitched, were you really doing this? was this actually happening? this feeling was a different level, but it was too good to not stop anyway. your hands moved across his body, his muscles tensing up as he gulped, his adam's apple flexing on his throat. your fingers trailed down to his stomach, almost making it's way to the waistband of his boxers and satoru's heart picked up its pace, his breathing becoming a bit ragged while your fingers slipped in to remove the last piece of clothing he has. satoru was melting from your touch, causing a soft moan to escape his lips as he closed his eyes for a moment, his body shuddering from excitement and also from being anxious. so many thoughts filled in his mind that he couldn't think straight, it's like reading a book but you aren't actually reading the words like you're supposed to, that's how satoru feels right now.

"want you so bad..." he mewled when he said "bad", biting his lip in anticipation as he waited for you to take off his boxers fully, to expose his length and his throbbing cock. you see him become desperate, he was already desperate ever since you two started making out, as soon as you pulled down his boxers your eyes went wide. he's big, how would it fit? would it hurt? you chuckled nervously as you stared at his cock for longer than a minute,"wanna put it in," he mumbled before he fixed his position, coming closer and pressing his body against yours and feeling every inch of his muscles, his body tenses up slightly, his hands raising up your legs as you wrapped them around his waist, giving his waist a good squeeze making him let out another moan. his hands were still placed on your plushed thighs, his fingers gripping them firmly as the tip of his cock makes contact with your pussy lips, making you shiver.

your hands clasped the bedsheets tightly, chewing down your bottom lip as you resisted on letting out a moan, satoru's eyes gleamed in pure admiration as his crystal blue eyes locked with yours. his chest heaved as he slowly pushed his hips further in, making you feel the fat mushroom tip of his throbbing cock, you could already feel him twitching and he barely put it in. he let out a low moan, gripping your thighs a bit tightly as your breath caught your throat, making you let out a choked moan,"baby s'too tight..." he panted as he tried to buck his hips further in, only to receive a short squeal from you,"fuck- i know baby, i know..." he softly whispered, his voice trembled and his hands shook, nervously gulping as his adam's apple flexed in his throat. he moved his hips slowly, as a way of spreading your pussy to align his size and to take good shape,"tell me if it hurts, okay?" his hands gave your thighs a reassuring squeeze, you nodded gently as satoru finally slammed his hips into yours.

a gasp escaped your lips, gripping the sheets for dear life as the tip of his cock bulged into your tummy, his cock throbbing and twitching as he was now balls deep inside of you. satoru grunted, his hands shifting into your waist and pulling you in as leverage, he kept on mumbling 's'tight' each time he tried to move his hips, your gummy walls hugging his cock tightly as you felt every girth and vein that flexed in his cock. your breathing was irregular, short gasps filling in the air and the smell of sex lingering in the bedroom,"please- move satoru..." you pleaded, your hands moving up to his biceps, making satoru shiver from your touch,"m' tryin' baby..." he groaned as his hips stuttered with each thrust he tried to achieve, he was getting vocal and he was starting to get the hang of ramming inside of you, one of his hands let go of your waist and pressed against the soft mattress, bucking his hips harder all the while he receives lewd moans from you.

"you're so beautiful.." thrust,"so pretty.." another thrust,"so good..." and another,"j-just for me.." he praised you, sweet moans and low growls escaping his lips,"we're gonna be married again," these words made you tighten more around him, whining out his name as your legs squeezed his waist,"gonna make you have my kids," his tip brushed against your sweet spot, making your toes curl and your eyes roll, his tip was still visible in your tummy and with each thrust he could manage to make it shows every fucking time, turning him on more. his hips rammed into you further, kissing your cerivx and every single inch, not missing a single thing to make you feel good. you chanted his name repeatedly, tears streaming down your cheeks as satoru's lips parted into a gentle smile, seeing your fucked out demeanor is so cute to his point of view.

"my baby, my sweet girl..." he kept on whispering sweet nothings into your ear when he's desperately thrusting into you, his touch is gentle but also firm, keeping you in place just enough for him to have a good angle for him to fuck,"d-don't leave me, never." his voice broke, his grip slowly getting tighter and his hips going just a tad bit faster,"mm-mm, nonono i won't, never ever.." you babbled, clinging onto him like glue as your nails dug into his skin, leaving faint scratch marks against his porcelain skin. he groaned softly, trying to take things in a much easier way, his hands shifting positions around your body, caressing many places as a way of reassurance, holding you like you're precious to him, he's doing all of this while he's desperately thrusting into you.

more tears threaten to spill from your eyes, your eyelashes fluttering as they were soaked with your salty tears, being filled to the brim with his cock was too much for you that you started growing senstive,"fuckfuckfuckk! 'toru gonna cumm!" you slurred out, already feeling yourself come to the edge of breaking, his hips rolled into yours as he hissed sharply,"shitt- sososo tight!" he moaned, his body trembling with pure ecstasy,"mygod baby, gonna fill you up so good," his lips parted, his fat tip kissing your cervix and his cock twitching uncontrollably from how close he is also, a ring of cum being shown on his shaft as it mixed with your slick, everything was so messy, so hot, so good, so passionate that he wanted to last longer, but the overstimulation was growing more into him that he couldn't bare with it any longer.

his hips stuttured again, feeling it become inconsistent and sloppy that with a few final thrusts you could feel thick ropes of his warm seed pump into you, your toes curled, your body stiffened, your eyes rolled, and tears continued spilling out of your pretty eyes, his seed filling you full that some bits spilled out of you. satoru let out a low moan, feeling his cock throb again and grow senstive, your gummy walls clenching his cock for dear life as you milked him like a cow, you muttured his name like it was a prayer and you clinged onto him. your body shook, your legs twitched and flinched and everything felt a pure bliss, so many things happened all at once, so quickly but it was worth it. satoru looked at you with a sheepish smile, giving you a look like 'what did we just do?'. your eyes glimmered, your grip on him loosened as your body relaxed, soft breaths and the rhythm of yours and his heartbeat thumping at a steady pace. even when you're fucked out you were still beautiful, so charming, and so elegant. seeing your hair being sprawled in the pillows, your soft lips being parted to let out heavy breaths, your chest heaving, and your body growing tired. every feature made satoru adore you even more,"will you take me back?" he blurted out suddenly, his crystal blue eyes swallowing you in as he took a good look of you to be locked in into his memory, letting this whole thing be stuck into his core that he can remember each and every day.

his question lingered in the long silence before you broke it,"of course..." you said with a small, genuine smile that made satoru melt from happiness,"really?" he whispered, his voice shaking again as he couldn't belive that you said 'yes', he was getting giddy that tears were forming in his eyes, he looked so beautiful this way but you felt bad, many emotions were corrupting you right now that you didn't know how to feel, but you most certainly feel happy,"mhm..." you nodded, your hands caressing his cheek and gently wiping away his tears, after five whole years of not seeing eachother, you now finally have the chance to call him his again, without any arrangements or without any forced marriage, he was now fully yours.

"don't cry, hey-" you tried to reassure him with words of affirmation but it was quickly interrupted with a kiss, a desperate kiss, a passionate kiss, the one where he bottled up his emotions and finally spilled it out by giving it to you, his devotion, his affection, his care, his love, is all being spilled towards you from just this kiss. he let go for a few moments, the tip of his nose brushing against yours as he smiled warmly,"thank you," he purred softly, his body still being attached into yours and not letting go by an inch, pure happiness, serotonin, ecstasy, bliss was what you two were feeling right now. you two caressing one another with care, and actually being together without any issues. you have him all by yourself and he has you all to himself, what a lucky encounter, what a lucky night to spend it at a time like this, if this didn't happen then it would be the same routine, but now it changed because you two have eachother, and you two would never let eachother go for any other reason.

a/n: HOLY SHIIIITTTTT this is the longest I've wrote and omg i never felt so proud, anyways i gtg and pass out cus i'm so tired 😔

Paul Blest at More Perfect Union:

The Federal Trade Commission voted Tuesday to ban new noncompete agreements for all workers and make existing noncompetes null and void for everyone except senior executives. These agreements are used to restrict 30 million American workers from changing jobs or starting their own businesses due to claims that they could use “trade secrets” in their new roles.  Noncompete agreements can restrict job mobility based on geographic area (i.e., a doctor joining a new practice within 50 miles of their old one) or a time period after leaving the position (anywhere between several months to more than a year). They have been banned in multiple states in the past few years. 

But the FTC has issued a uniform ban that will cover hundreds of millions of workers following a 180-day period for for-profit companies to enter into compliance. More than 26,000 comments were submitted on the rule, more than 25,000 of which supported a noncompete ban, FTC staff said Tuesday.  The FTC estimated that the new rule will increase workers’ wages by up to $488 billion over 10 years, which FTC staff said would mean a $524 increase in annual wages for the average worker. The FTC also estimated that the rule would lead to more than 8,500 new businesses per year.   “Right now workers are stuck in place because of these noncompetes,” FTC chair Lina Khan told More Perfect Union in an interview about the rule. “So even if they get a better job opportunity with higher wages, with better benefits, they can't actually switch jobs, which is bad for those workers. It's also bad for other workers who won't have the opportunities that are not being created because of these noncompetes.”

Five states have passed bans on noncompetes, not including New York, where lawmakers passed a ban last year that was then vetoed by Gov. Kathy Hochul. After Oregon banned noncompete agreements in 2008, researchers found, average hourly wages for all workers were boosted by up to 3 percent; the same analysis found that low-wage workers subjected to noncompetes saw a substantial negative impact on their wages.  The final rule differs from the proposal in that “senior executives,” those in a “policy-making position” making more than $151,000 per year, will still be subjected to noncompete agreements signed before the effective date of the new rule.

Since announcing the proposal in early 2023, the FTC’s rule has come under fire from the business lobby. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce said before Tuesday’s meeting that it will file a lawsuit to block the proposal as soon as Wednesday. A top Chamber official said earlier this week that the rule “opens up a Pandora’s box where this commission or future commissions could be literally micromanaging every aspect of the economy,” Bloomberg reported.  But the FTC argues that noncompete agreements are “an unfair method of competition” that affect both high- and l0w-wage earners. In the medical profession, nearly half of all physicians are subject to noncompete agreements, according to the American Medical Association, which backs the effort to end the practice. (The FTC estimated that the new rule will result in “$74-$194 billion in reduced spending on physician services over the next decade.”)

The Federal Trade Commission voted to ban competition-stifling noncompete agreements except for senior executives.

Hi Pandora! Just a quick message to check in on you.

How are you? Do you like your new job?I hope you’re having a great weekend.

Bisous 😘

Armilia, honey! Thank you so much for checking in! Gosh, I love my internet friends so much! 🤗

I'm not going to lie, first week of work was terrible... So many adjustments... I haven't worked away from home for three years, so having to get up early to leave the house and only return after dark has taken a toll I wasn't expecting... Especially because I only see my kid for about 10 minutes in the morning and around 2 hours after work before putting him to bed...

I was used to being the one who left him at school, picked him up, gave him bath, helped with homework... And I miss it...

Buuuuuut! This second week went very well. I started to get the hang of things, I like talking with people and getting out of the house, I actualy lost some weight (🥳) and managed to write more than the first week. Also, I'm learning to spend quality time with my son, instead of just spending time with him.

I'm finishing up chapter 17 of The Great Pretender and, since I will have a day off on Tuesday (it's a Holliday) I'm hoping I can finish the story so I can focus on the other one-shots on my WIP list!

Thank you soooooo much for thinking about me, I love you Armilia! Thank you for being an awesome internet friend! ❤️❤️🥰🥰

lily evans x fem!reader

type: fluff

summary: you, a slytherin prefect and quidditch player, and lily evans, gryffindor’s golden girl, have seemed to find yourselves in a strange and lovely situation

word count: 1.1k

notes: completely self indulgent. also sorry if this feels short.

masterlist

𝜗𝜚

You couldn’t have imagined in a million years that you would’ve Lily Evan’s type.

You, the loud mouth, aggressive, quidditch playing prefect whom she never seemed all too thrilled to do night rounds with. You, the avid defender of all the younger Slytherin students which usually led to you getting into regular spats with the marauders when their pranks hit more than Death Eaters. You, the one who had a notoriously bad break up with one of her best friends (let’s be real though, how many queer girls at Hogwarts hadn’t had a bad break up with Marlene Mckinnon at some point?).

You, the girl.

All of these things didn’t stop her however from snogging in a random broom closet every Tuesday and Thursday night when the two of you were assigned patrols.

You weren’t exactly sure how the little affair started, but you were sure you didn’t want it to stop.

You were suddenly hyperaware of her at all times- how you stared a little too long in the dining hall and in lessons, how she stood a little too close in prefect meetings, how she now sat in the front row of the Gryffindor section at quidditch games. It was like you were both making a game of how far you could push the limits of a secret affair.

“What’s got you all dazy?” Pandora had asked you one Saturday morning in the Great Hall. She sat directly across from you, reading the new edition of the Quibbler as she ate her toast. It was the third Saturday of the month, meaning the Gryffindor’s would be out on the quidditch pitch for the next hour before it was the Slytherin’s turn to practice. In that time, you were hoping to somehow steal Lily away- at least for a little while- while a good portion of her friend group was busy. The only issue was that she hadn’t walked in yet.

“Nothing,” you said, snapping your head back to your friends. You picked up a spoon full of cereal and quickly shoved it into your mouth. “Just thinking about what we need to work on at practice today.”

“Good to know someone’s finally got their head back in the game,” Lucinda boredly chimed in from beside you. “I was getting worried.”

“For the last time, Lu, the only thing that distracted me at the last game was that bloody bludger nearly taking my head off right,” you said, dropping your spoon into your bowl of now soggy cereal. “I swear to Godric the next time I see Sirius Black I’m gonna-”

Someone behind you cleared their throat.

You spun around in your seat, the conversations near you at the table falling silently. Lily Evans making an appearance at the Slytherin table wasn’t an everyday occurrence, you know.

“Hi,” was all you managed to stutter out, hoping it didn’t come off too forced as your cheeks warmed.

“Hi,” Lily smirked, watching you get all flustered in front of her. “Sorry to interrupt, Filch requested us to meet him in his office to discuss something that happened last night.”

Your blood went cold. What had happened last night was you and Lily snogging in an empty corridor for the better part of an hour.

“Oh, alright,” you said, your cheeks once again heating up. “I’ll- I’ll be back in a minute,” you told your friends, hoping your awkwardness wouldn’t make them suspicious of anything.

“You better be on the pitch by 9:30!” Lucinda shouted after you as you and Lily exited the Great Hall.

You rung your hands out in front of you as you followed Lily through the school. He couldn’t have seen you two, right? Surely one of you would have noticed. You weren’t exactly sure what you would do if you had been caught. I mean, what could you do? You’d surely be stripped of your prefect titles and, Merlin, the rumors would be something awful.

“Lily,” you said, breaking the silence of the hall, your mouth dry. She glanced at you before once again looking forward as you passed a group of third years. “What exactly did Filch want-“

Without giving you any warning, she gripped the sleeve of your robe and pulled you with her into an empty classroom. She forcefully pushed her lips onto yours- the taste of her now familiar chapstick making butterflies in your stomach. You leaned back onto the wall she pushed you to, letting the back of your head rest against it as she wrapped her arms around your neck. There was a charm about her that made you completely forget what you had been worrying about just moments before- your full attention now on the girl in front of you.

“Lils,” you laughed lightly as she pressed kisses down your jaw. “I’m assuming there's no Filch?”

“Well, aren’t you clever,” she smiled, pulling back for a moment to look at you. She pecked your lips again. “Sorry to worry you, I just needed to get you away from your friends.” You couldn’t help your cheeks warming again. There was something about this girl that turned you to straight mush.

“Getting bold, are we?” you asked, tucking some of her fiery red hair behind her ear. “Bloody Gryffindors,” you joked.

“Hmm, see I think you’re rubbing off on me,” she said, pursing her lips to hide her smile. “After that little show I put on for your friends back there, I’m starting to think the hat made some sort of mistake.” You couldn’t help the snort that came out as you laughed at the idea of her in Slytherin.

“Yeah, and I should’ve been in Hufflepuff,” you said sarcastically. “You know, with how patient and just I am.” She laughed again, crinkling her nose as she closed her eyes.

“Oh, very patient,” she said. “It’s your best trait, really.”

“What can I say- I’m a lot of things,” you started, letting your head lull back against the wall, “Patient, resourceful, intelligent, humble. I can’t be confined by the restraints that are what we call Hogwarts houses.” Lily hid her face in your shoulder this time as she laughed. You laughed too, wrapping your arms around her and simply holding her for a moment.

You thought about your friends and if they saw you now. You thought about her friends and what they wouldn’t do if they saw you now. A bloody protective bunch, the marauders and co. were. You couldn’t even bring yourself to care what any of them would say. Not even Sirius Black could hex off the smile that had seemed to take permanent residence on your face when she was around.

It was something truly special, you two had, and it was yours.

The lovebirds! Harry & Taylor’s night of romance ..down the pub

Daily Mirror - 13 Dec 2012 BY CLEMMIE MOODIE

Harry and Taylor pop down the pub for a Swifty.. then feed the birds together on beauty spot trip.

THAT Harry Styles is certainly getting all lovey-dovey with his new girlfriend. The One Direction Romeo took American superstar Taylor Swift to meet his mum after treating her to a meal at his local village pub on Tuesday night.

And yesterday they fed doves and swans together on a visit to a Lake District beauty spot.

Harry pulled out all the stops to impress multi Grammy award-winner Taylor on her visit.

After treating her to a slap-up meal at The Rising Sun in Derbyshire’s Peak District, the pair made their way home to his mum Anne – via Tesco.

At the supermarket, 18-yearold Harry splashed out £3.89 on a tub of VO5 hair styling wax while Taylor wandered down the aisles looking at the vegetables.

Last night pub manager Sarah Walker revealed the celebrity couple met up with Harry’s sister, Gemma, and her boyfriend at their local in Hope Valley.

Pub regular Gemma strolled in at 7.30pm just before Harry and Taylor arrived in his Range Rover Sport. After ordering a round of soft drinks, they sat in the window, next to the crackling log fire.

'Taylor said she loved being in Britain .. she’s a real honey' CAROL WALKER

The showbiz pair polished off a Yorkshire pudding and onion gravy starter, followed by roast turkey with all the trimmings for Harry and a whole lemon sole for his size-eight girlfriend.

Shunning the champagne, they stuck to non-alcoholic J2Os all evening. Taylor, who is 23 today, told pub-goers she was looking forward to the couple’s trip to Windermere in the Lake District and celebrating her birthday.

But it seems they will spend Christmas an ocean apart as Taylor revealed plans to fly home to Nashville to spend the festive season with her family.

Sarah, 37, said: “Taylor said she was loving being in Britain and she also seemed to like being in the country.

“And she was excited about her birthday and about flying home for Christmas. She said she didn’t mind the cold, but it will be a lot warmer in Nashville. They were both lovely and she’s a honey.”

After posing for pics and signing diners’ menus, Harry and Taylor settled the bill – which came in at just over £100 along with a handsome tip.

Yesterday, the tactile couple, who have now been dating for a month, enjoyed an afternoon feeding the swans and doves on Lake Windermere.

One swan even pecked at the brand- new £ 995 Burberry handbag Taylor was carrying – a birthday gift from her new beau – as the country singer gamely batted the creature away.

Giggling as they then fed the birds in the town centre, they were also spotted outside the Pandora jewellery shop by store manager Claire Dibbs.

Claire, 24, told the Mirror: “I was hyperventilating – I just never expected to see them.

“Taylor introduced herself – she was really lovely. She said they were just here for the day and I think they were there with his parents. She had a lot of bags from Beatrix Potter World. I saw some cuddly toys poking out of the top of the bag.

“They’d done a lot of shopping. Taylor said she loved the area and said it was really pretty.” Harry and Taylor first met in America i n April when Harry was on tour with One Direction.

After going on a couple of ‘secret dates’, they reportedly split up after the heartthrob was spotted kissing American model Emma Ostilly in New Zealand. But they were spotted dating in New York’s Central Park recently.

The date came hours before One Direction’s sell-out gig in front of 20,000 fans at the Madison Square Garden. The loved-up singers gazed into each others eyes, stopping to chat to some kids and to watch the sea lions at the zoo.

And last week the rumours they were an item were confirmed when she flew him in her private jet from New York to London to attend the Jingle Bell Ball at London’s O2 arena.

Harry ditched the rest of his bandmates to spend a few hours with her on the flight, while the others flew back to the UK on a domestic flight.

I made this tier list of where I'd put r:1999 playable characters in twst kind of like in the twst manga as the MC a while ago and here's some interactions I thought of:

(While making this tier list, I realized that a lot of these characters are way too op for this verse and could 100% end the story earlier than it needs to.)

Some of the adults are hired as a faculty member in their respective AUs while being Grim's guardian.

Book 1 is mostly filled with children who are full of joy whimsy and wonder. Something Riddle probably lacked growing up.

I feel like Sotheby and Sonetto could memorize the entirety of the Queen of Heart's rules. Sonetto would try her hardest to make sense of it while Sotheby would be like "oh! That completely makes sense!"

Regulus immediately getting "Of with Your Head"ed.

Cater and TTT would share so many gossip together.

Book 2 is half filled with people who I think would be very much interested in participating in the tournament, thus accepting Crowley's offer to investigate the recent incident.

Lowkey Book 2 is pretty much your typical situation Matilda would find herself in.

Desert Flannel and Ruggie would either be friends or have beef with each other since both of them are 17 year old parentless broke mfs who was raised by their grandma, constantly on that grindset. Also I'd like to see Ruggie getting drop kicked by an ostrich when they were chasing him in this au.

Mondlicht would try to kill Jack every single day without any success.

Book 3 is mostly filled with people who I think can outsmart Azul and/or scam him back. That and people who have connections to the ocean.

Literally what's stopping Pavia from stealing the contracts when he can move and hide in the shadows?

Melania could probably come up with a better plan to steal that picture than walking through the front door and immediately getting ambushed.

I want Lisa and Louise to do what they did to Pandora Wilson in their interview to Azul when he tries to make a deal with them. Instant Win.

I know I put Tuesday in Book 7, but imagine her and the baby getting evicted from the ramshackle dorm and was like "y'all would do that to a single mother and her baby...?" And the twins are like "heh.... Sorry.... Azul's orders..." Or some shit like that but that night they stayed up contemplating their life choices bc damn... They fr did that to a poor single mom and her baby... (Even funnier if you consider the hc that Floyd is a mama's boy.)

I put Oliver in book 3 specifically for the capitalist vs union worker thing.

Book 4 is mostly people who I think could be a tutor for the Scarabia students. "Oh, your dorm is staying over the winter breaks to study? I can help with that."

Kalim and Yenisei could bond over their respective water magic.

Mercuria would meet Jamil and just know his vibes are off. I just know she'd immediately know what's going on.

Book 5 is pretty much filled with people who knows a thing or to about stage performance (J is canonically good at acting btw).

Epel🤝Ezra canonically pretty enough to get mistaken as a girl except one of them has a more fragile masculinity than the other.

I just found out about this the other day but apparently J's en va also voiced Vil in a fandub project

Deuce and Epel in J's au:

Books 6 are mostly Laplace people (for obvious reasons)

Then there's 6 who is basically Idia if the stuff that happened to him happen when he's older and grew up without internet access

Book 7 are some of the people who I feel like could solo Malleus.

The way that Barbara's arcane skill is like Silver's UM but better. Bro lost to a 12 year old.

The way Sebek can't call J, Satsuki, Pavia and Jiu Niangzi "HUMAN!" bc like him, they're also only human and that'd be hypocritical for him. Also Barbara for more reason than one.

Kakania giving these kids free therapy session.

In Pickles' AU Ace would make fun of Deuce for not being smarter than a dog

There's a rumor going around about a new school nurse with a fascination for teeth especially beastfolk's.

Deuce would be extra extra mindful around Tuesday.

I feel like Jade would get along with Ezra (bc of their shared interest in mushrooms) and Tuesday (for their shared interest in finding out people's weakness and fears)

Speaking of, imagine the first years being tasked with babysitting Tuesday's baby and they're shocked to see the baby for the first time. Ace was the first one who spoke up saying "lmao it looks like you Sebek."

I think these people would assume that Ortho is an Awakened when they first met him and after Book 6 where he's like "I'm finally a real living boy!" They'd be like "you weren't alive this whole time???"

Pandora has a system. She goes to the library every Tuesday and Thursday, she goes to a very specific table near the back, and pulls out a random piece of homework or a personal project and enjoys herself.

She doesn't need to work in the library, she has her own small corner in the Ravenclaw Tower that all her housemates know not to touch after an incident in her third year (The kid still hasn't grown their eyebrows back, and Pandora hopes they don't try to grow facial hair any time soon because she's sure it's not possible).

But she can't help it. She hardly does any of the work she pulls out anyways, she's too busy staring. Lily Evans is beautiful. With bright red hair and wonderful green eyes that Pandora is positive she can see a future in. Metaphorically at least, but Divination is one of her best subjects for a reason.

Anyways, Lily Evans is the prettiest girl Pandora has ever laid eyes on, and Tuesday and Thursday are the days Lily Evans attends a small studying group and is too engrossed in whatever she's doing to notice Pandora wanting to stare so far into her soul that the colours of it get implanted into Pandora's retinas.

Pandora will make a move. She will, she swears, but she wasn't put in Gryffindor for a reason. Even the thought of talking to Lily makes pixies dance in her vision and make Pandora want to down whatever potion she's privately working on no matter the consequences. But she will at least say hello one of these days. She talks to the stars every night about it.

The stars are Regulus and he's not very impressed, but he's also not impressed with himself and his own taste in men so Pandora doesn't take it to heart. Instead she just gets lost in her own mind, thinking about what it would be like to at least touch the skin of the older girl. She thinks it would be... well, lack for a better word, magical.

talk shop tuesday! incredible coincidence - i wanted to ask you more about your dnd OCs, and you posted a new art piece with one of them! continuing the theme: could you tell more about your dnd OCs and how they came to be?

Ohhhh you have opened Pandora's Box my friend!! I could talk about this topic all day.

Basically there's two parts to this: my approach to DnD in general, and in-depth explanations of the characters. I'm going to put this under a Read More to save everyone's Dash.

Part One: Dungeons and Dragons

So the thing I love most about DnD (and other TTRPGs) is that it's a collaborative game. I'm not responsible for the entirety of the story, I bring my character to the table and everyone else brings their characters and between us, the DM, and the dice, we figure out where the story is going. I enjoy it so much more than trying to come up with everything on my own. And I love that people can surprise me!! @mothmansbigfatass and @ahawkmet (my irl friends and in most of the campaigns I play) can attest, apparently I'm a lot of fun to watch during revelations because I always have a big reaction.

So when making a dnd character, it's important for me to know 1. What the world we'll be playing in is like, and 2. What everyone else is doing. Again, it's a collaborative game, so I want to make sure that I'm playing nice with the DM's world. AND often the setting itself will give me an idea (see Ethan: the game is set at a community college. What's a college stereotype that would be fun to play?). Ideally, the character I make would have a really hard time being plopped into a different campaign and have it still make sense. Secondly, it's more fun for me to play a class that will fill out the party. For example, if we already have a cleric, I don't also need to play a religious character. Those story beats are covered by someone else, I don't want to be competing with another person for cool moments.

Once those two things are settled, character creation is determined by what seems fun to play and what would be interesting aesthetically. I like to keep the backstory light to see what happens as we start playing, and then I can fill it in bit by bit later. Sometimes that bites me in the ass, though (see Ethan: I didn't give him birth parents and then they were incredibly important to the plot). I tend to have a general idea about who they are and what they're like, and then I always get surprised by what they actually end up acting like once we start playing. It's fun for me to figure them out along the way!

The last thing I wanna say about DnD (for now) is that I love everyone else's characters just as much. I just draw mine more because, well, they're mine. I feel weird putting their guys in situations and guessing how they'd react because they aren't my little guys. I much prefer working collaboratively with the other players (like an RP thread) to just writing a story on my own.

Part Two: Ethan

Where to even start with my boy. A bunch of my work friends got together to start a DnD game, and I hadn't played with most of them before so I wasn't sure what to expect. I also did not think the game would last very long, since most campaigns tend to fizzle out after a few sessions. So I made kind of a joke character with extremely little backstory: He's a half-orc, since I hadn't played that race before, he's a bard who is the captain of the local community college's Improv Team, he's "the kind of guy to play wonderwall at a party but you're not mad about it", and I said he's adopted by two men, neither of whom were his biological parents, and he wasn't particularly interested in tracking down his bio parents. This last point is for two reasons: one, I was trying to avoid just duplicating a Dimension 20's Gorgug, a half-orc who was adopted by gnomes and spent the whole first season trying to find his dad; and two, I was pushing an "Adopted parents are not less than biological parents" agenda.

My DM took this personally (affectionate). First session, I was given a clue about his birth parents' identities. From then on, Ethan was dragged kicking and screaming into being the unofficial main character of the campaign. His mom was one of our favorite NPCs, a kickass pirate with a truly tragic backstory who would always jump to help us out of a scrape. His biological dad was the human embodiment of Pride who had took on the form of Fantasy Harrison Ford and was an extremely famous actor in-world. Our BBEG was his uncle, the embodiment of Greed. Every plot point became very personal and it was a lot of fun. I also loved putting him through the wringer, so between me and the DM the poor guy couldn't catch a break.

Part of the dice telling the story, I rolled so bad all the time when I played Ethan. It didn't matter which dice I used, I just rolled really bad, which was not something that normally happened with me. So that was fun to incorporate into his character as we played-- he was insecure about his own abilities compared to the extremely powerful characters he was surrounded by (we had a 20 ft Earth Titan who was an extremely powerful Druid, Emeshka you will always be famous). So he became a more three-dimensional and actualized character the more we played.

He's extremely easy to put in situations and his character design is pretty solid, so I end up drawing him the most. My perfect little guy.

(Anything about him I've tagged either "Ethan" or "Big Yarr Energy" if you want to find more)

Part Three: Mina

After the campaign with Ethan wrapped up, we started a new one in a Cthulhu-inspired setting. My goal with making Mina was to do as close to a 180 as I could from Ethan. While Ethan was a friendly and charming but bad at most things, Mina is a competent and intelligent Druid who's blunt and overworked and doesn't quite know how to meaningfully engage with her party members (but she tries, bless her). Druid was one of the classes I hadn't played yet and I've been making my way through the list of available classes. The One-With-Nature stuff isn't super interesting to me as a player, but I found a homebrew subclass that was based more in Big Cities and as an Architecture Nerd that was much more my speed. Also, I hadn't played an Aasimar before, so that seemed like fun. From all that, I pulled together her whole deal: She was from a bloodline of guardian angels who were sent to protect different villages and towns, and she's gone from her mother's small town to being the guardian of a city of several million people and it's overwhelming. She's lonely and she's jaded and she's got severe Gifted Kid Syndrome and she's got her head on a swivel to make sure her party members are okay even if they don't like her very much and I love her.

I didn't give her a lot of tragic backstory because there are a lot of us playing and I wanted to have a character who could push the plot forward with her actions, instead of having a "now let's stop and talk about my life!!" moment every session that seemed to happen with Ethan. Give everyone else some time to have cool moments, you know? And by GOD are there some cool moments. My fellow players are so good at making compelling characters. Ask @mothmansbigfatass about Nelly if you get a chance.

We're still playing this campaign, although we're nearing the end of it. There's still space for some big moments for Mina in the game, though I'm hoping our DM lets me save hers for last. She's the kind of character to make sure everyone else is okay before taking care of herself, so it feels appropriate. I'm excited to see where Mina ends up. She's definitely a character I'll go back and write/draw a lot afterwards, though. Part of being in a group this size means there's a lot of stuff that just won't get covered. I'll have a lot of material to play with for my own work once we get to the next campaign.

(Anything about Mina I've tagged either "Mina" or "Cthulhu Crimes" if you want to find more)

Part Four: Jess

Jess is a character that isn't from DnD but is a TTRPG character of mine, and I like her so I'm going to talk about her too. Jess is a cautionary tale in Knowing Your Audience.

Jess is from a different group of players than Ethan and Mina. Our DM for that game is notorious for wanting to give us Big, Shonen-Style fight scenes and an insane level of power creep. Character interactions are fine, but his true passion is making us look like Goku.

Jess was... not built to look like Goku. In this world you could identify different types of magic users by their focus, and I wanted her whole schtick to be about deception. She looked like a wizard when she was actually a monk, she looked like a dumb blonde girl when she was extremely smart and good at stealing things, she's a dancer but her primary fighting style was based on capoeira, etc. Also part of why Jess sticks with me as a favorite character is the way I had her powers work was so fun and visually interesting that I haven't been able to shake it. Basically her superpower was that she could snatch bits of other people's powers and use them herself, and you could tell which ones she had because they would fill out spectral stained glass wings with specific colors.

Jess was (and still is, frankly) too complicated for the game our DM wanted to run. Immediately any hope of her being a chronic liar was dashed as her powers did not manifest in a way that could possibly pass off as being a wizard. So instead of being sneaky, Jess became very angry. She was quick to point out injustices in the world we were in. She beat up creeps, she yelled at bigots, she stole powers from macho superheroes trying to one-up her. She had to get a lot less complicated for the story we were in, but the complicated version of her still lives in my head and I like to see what she's up to from time to time.

(I don't think I have anything tagged for Jess, unfortunately)

TL; DR:

TTRPG characters are fun because they let me do my favorite thing creatively, which is bounce ideas off of other people. I typically design them based on the setting, party needs, character tropes that I think are interesting, and just general vibes. Most importantly, though, I don't have a fleshed out character without the input of the other players.

this post and this series not sponsored by hellofresh

listening

caravan palace's new single MAD. genuinely the song i've had on loop while working but i had a very strong "ugh can't use that one it's cringe" reaction while drafting this entry and am trying to sort of sit with myself for a bit and go okay WHY is it cringe? how can we talk about it being cringe other than the fact that steampunk and electroswing are no longer fashionable? some weeks the policy of No Such Thing As A Guilty Pleasure is easier than others

i would not classify this song as electro or swing, and it's considerably jazzier than their more recent dancey pop stuff. more of a languid stroll with enough brass to keep my brain interested while i peer at spreadsheets? spotify

reading

Alexis Hall's A Lady for a Duke. i liked this quite a bit but i have some longer form thoughts percolating that require a reread. it was a tense but fun read, i do not know that mr hall achieved the goal he set forth below. in a broad initial stroke, there is certainly a great deal of internal conflict not helped by our trans lead’s difficulty seeing her trans self in a loving relationship.

how this conflict resolves did genuinely keep me on the edge of my seat bc i could not fucking figure out how she was going to do it

watching

Pandora and the Flying Dutchman (1951, dir Lewin). this is a movie where (in the immortal words of the switchblade sisters podcast) it’s not what happens, but how it happens. the movie opens with fishermen dredging up two star-crossed lovers. i will not be particularly concerned with spoilers here or in my letterboxd review.

age and a deft scorsese-backed restoration have been very kind to this sea-mist movie. cinnamon fucking topography, technicolor at some of its prettiest and best used. jack cardiff (also did Black Narcissius, The Red Shoes, The African Queen) you've fucking done it again. the restored version is on american tubi and it's so so lush and dreamy. the very first handful of scenes contains a church bell ringing wildly, giving you glimpses of commotion on the beach, and it just keeps getting better from there. the beach party, full of dutch angles and toppled statuary and debauchery and no one dancing the same, is exactly the same as every beach party i have ever been to.

james mason is at his hottest, wettest, and most brooding. not all of our main characters are as openly debauched as pandora, but all of them are just as selfish. i have a lot of fucking beef with some of the letterboxd reviewers, who are simply wrong. pandora is not supposed to be a likeable or redeemable character. i think one of the questions for YOU to answer is whether or not a flighty, homewrecking, irresponsible woman like pandora is redeemed through her willingness to die for true love-- this is generally an admirable quality in myths and fairy tales, but is it cancelled out as just another flight of her fancies that ultimately kills her?

also the people who don't "get" what the film's about and complain it's too slow. it's about insanity and the sea what's not to get!!!

thank u @dying-suffering-french-stalkers

playing

so we are mostly through the genshin 4.1 part 2 events. i am so tired of the past few battle events cycling through the same arenas; however, this is the first event where i read the directions and was like "augh that's too complicated we'll do that later" and did all my weekly bounties instead. speaking of bounties, i finally did enough to unlock the treasure chest locator and confirmed my suspicions that i have in fact picked over the region pretty well in the last ~two months. the liffey and research institute were at 85% and 95% respectively before i unlocked this thing, but i did almost immediately find two remarkable chests in the far south by the port. augh. would have bit me if they had teeth etc. i would prefer if the regions showed 100% when i have actually 100%ed them instead of whatever margin they have going now, but i recognize that i have brain problems.

making

im MAD bc i was given a singular hellofresh dinner by a friend going on vacation and it was fairly easy to make and tasted good and everything WORKED. and it was like a fun little after work project!!! and the directions said “here’s what to do to the peppers if you don’t want it super spicy” and it most importantly it all WORKED. this is a very expensive thing to have a sudden interest in. i feel like i fuck up most of the food i make and i know that's part of the learning curve but it's SO fucking expensive to fuck up food and i have such a limited amount of energy :<
