[tidetfs]

Dan stared at the bottle he had ordered. Never thinking it would actually have arrived from the sketchy online seller, the liquid within shone a bright orange. Bringing the bottle to his nose, the 20-year old nerdy college student recalled the ad: "become a hot, dumb, smelly, musky, blonde himbo Aussie surfer dude with long hair!" - what he initially thought as ridiculous and something that would only live in his fantasies, he began to think the ad might have been a little real as he popped the cork and gave it a sniff, recoiling. It smelled like the combination of the sea and a high school locker room!

The ad had promised a transformation time of 30 minutes, and for the effects to last forever! Dan looked around at his room...did he really want to do this? Leave his nerdy life behind? As soon as he began to have doubts, he forced himself to rip the cork off the bottle. Before the smell got too bad, Dan imagined the stuff was just a shot of vodka he always saw his hot roommate taking, plugged his nose, and downed the whole bottle.

As he finished the last drops of the nasty liquid, Dan felt the effects immediately. His stomach felt warm and gurgly. A wave of heat and energy washed over his body, causing him to drop the empty bottle and fall to his knees. He suddenly felt rejuvenated, as if he could go outside right this instant and put his pudgy body through a fifty mile run, while at the same time feeling a strong urge to vomit. As Dan tried to stand, he felt another wave of heat coursing through his body. Dan screamed as his veins felt like they would burst out of his skin, falling back to the floor.

Dan moaned again as the heat began to become unbearable, his shirt becoming wet with sweat as he struggled to pry it off. Panting, Dan struggled to remove his shorts too, almost feeling as if he was basking in the hot summer sun. Once his clothes were all off, Dan laid there on the floor, a puddle of sweat surrounding his body. Suddenly, the vomiting urge disappeared, and was replaced by a new one.

"I-I'm horny..." Dan mumbled as he reached down to stroke his hardening cock, a few inches long. He had never been able to get hard, and certainly had never had a wet dream or orgasm, let alone masturbate. But now, Dan couldn't stop himself from touching his cock, and the feeling was electric. It had never felt so good before!

"What is this?!" Dan gasped as his cock seemed to pulse with each stroke. Dan was in heaven, his whole body tingling as he began to play with his nipples, never before having considered that area pleasurable. He didn't even notice the slow growth of hair on his arms, chest, and legs. As Dan began to furiously stroke his lengthening cock, small blonde hairs began to peek out of his head, and a thin patch of pubic hair sprouted. Dan moaned and thrashed about, his cock pulsing with pleasure as it slowly became longer and thicker, surpassing 9 inches and growing to the width of a beer can. Dan began thrusting into his hand as the pulsating head spurted precum like a fountain, dribbling down to his new mess of blonde public hairs that was still growing, becoming an out of control forest reeking of fresh sweat.

"Oh fuck yes" Dan moaned as the rest of him began to grow. Dan's feet began to pulse and crack spreading across the cold tile floor as wild, bushy tufts of bright blonde hair sprouted between his toes and grew up his feet, soon surpassing size 12 as Dan cried out in pleasure. His legs began to swell, becoming thick, toned and covered in sweaty, sticky blonde hair, reeking of male scent and...gnarly waves? Dan began to question how he would know this smell, but the heat overcame him again as his legs pushed him taller to a striking 6'2. His thighs and ass swelled, his hips and waist widening with them as his muscles grew stronger and thicker, his ass cheeks soon swelling to the size of a small chair cushion and bouncing with every move, his hips wider than the doors as he was left with a small, round, bubble butt that shook like jello when he moved. Here too, a jungle of smelly, sweaty blonde hair consumed his ass as Dan screamed in pleasure, his hands kneading the soft flesh as he thrusted his cock into the air.

"Yesssssss" Dan cried, as the heat began to spread up from his crotch to his abdominals. His stomach began to grow outward, the pudge melting away and giving way to a firm, chiseled, rock hard 6-pack abs that glistened with sweat. Dan's nipples became dark, sensitive nubs of flesh, his pecs swollen with muscle as they began to pulse. Screaming at the pleasure coursing through his chest, Dan ran his hands up the chiseled surface of his abs, feeling them become coated in a sheen of rancid sweat that would never truly wash away. As he began to grope and massage his bloating man tits, the blonde jungle from his crotch began to consume his chest and underarms, his armpits turning into a wet, sweaty pit that would forever stink, the blonde hair growing thicker and curlier with each second. Even with his arms resting at his sides, the pits would still spill outwards, a mountain of hairy flesh and sweat. His chest became swollen, the pecs now growing large and round, a pair of thick, perky, sweaty man tits that would shake like water balloons with any movement. The hair on his chest went into overdrive, thickening and spreading as a trail formed up the middle of his back, ensuring any shirt he wore would be ruined by sweat, no matter the number of showers he had.

As Dan continued to massage the still-growing mounds of muscle on his chest, his arms began to pulse with the summer heat. With each wave, Dan screamed in ecstasy, as the veins and muscles underneath his skin swelled, becoming thicker and bigger. The reeking blonde jungle from his crotch and chest, now complete, consumed his biceps, triceps, and forearms, growing into a dense mat that would only grow and grow until the day he died, a permanent, rancid stench that would make him the subject of attention wherever he went. Dan moaned as his arms began to flex, his hands reaching up to the ceiling as his hands swelled, growing longer, larger, and thicker, the hands of a brute. As he used his new hands on his raging cock, he felt the heat once more as his shoulders began to pulse, feeling them widen as his back grew thick and powerful with strong muscle, his broad shoulders bulging with the same power.

"O-oh f-fuck..." Dan moaned, as he flexed his arms, feeling them bulge with raw strength, biceps and triceps thicker than a normal person's thighs, the smelly blonde jungle making them seem even bigger. He breathed deeply as his cock continue to leak, his whole body dripping with sweat, as the heat began to travel up into his neck as it grew thicker and wider, giving him the appearance of the jocks he wanted so much to be like. Dan moaned, feeling his voice drop deeper and deeper into a low, sensual baritone as his Adam's apple pushed outwards, forming a thick, protruding knot.

As Dan reached down to play with his hairy ass, his face began to tingle. His eyes fluttered and closed as his nose cracked pushed outwards, giving the slightly crooked appearance that it had once been broken as his lips grew plumper and fuller as his longer tongue licked their edges. Dan's teeth grew dull and slightly crooked, a perfect set for the dumb surfer boy he was becoming. A low, sensual chuckle came from deep within his chest as his jaw cracked, growing larger and wider as his cheekbones bulged.

"Heheheh" Dan chuckled again, his new, low voice reverberating throughout his body, as blonde stubble began to appear on his face and neck. Dan's hands caressed the smooth, baby-like skin of his face, before it erupted into a wild, dense jungle, covering his entire head. The smell was unbearable, but Dan could do nothing but moan in ecstasy as he raised his muscular arm to huff the sea of hair spilling from his pit. He breathed deeply, smelling the mixture of his rancid male musk, salty sweat, and the ocean, feeling a nostalgic sense of returning home. He moaned again in his new, low voice as his skull began to grow a thick set of curly, sweaty blonde locks, only adding to the smell as the last of his short, black hair changed color and began to spill behind his ears. Dan moaned again, the sound of his voice sending shivers down his spine, as his mouth filled with saliva.

"Fuuuuuck" he moaned, his tongue swirling around in the saliva, causing some to spill out as drool onto his still pulsing cock, earning Dan another wave of pleasure as his greasy locks grew even more curly, reaching the back of his neck. Dan opened his eyes, the pupils now a beautiful aquamarine, and watched his hair grow in the mirror, the light from the window glinting off the golden blonde curls.

"D-do I have long hair?" Dan mumbled, his mouth filled with spit, as he stood up and walked over to the mirror. Dan's cock bobbed with each step, precum flying everywhere, as he stared at his new, sexy, handsome body.

"I-I look like a surfer" Dan said slowly, looking at his long, wet, curly locks, shining like gold in the light. He looked at his strong, muscular arms, the blonde hair shining as it cascaded down to the jungle on his hands, before continuing to his chest. Dan's hands moved to his pecs, feeling them, before his hands traced the outline of his six pack. "I'm strong..." Dan muttered, watching his cock twitch and bob. Dan looked up to the mirror again, his new model-like face staring back at him. He looked at the blonde curls, his thick, wet, red lips, and his aquamarine eyes, feeling the drool dribble down his chin and the scent of the sea and man sweat fill the room.

Suddenly, Dan realized the potion had one more surprise for him as he felt a splitting headache, his hair growing even faster and longer.

"Owowowowwwwww" Dan moaned, grabbing his head and bending forward. His hair grew and grew, his hands running through the wavy curls, slick with grease, salt, and sweat. He looked in the mirror again, noticing a subtle shift in his eyes as he quickly realized what was happening. "Wait, n-no-" he started, as he quickly began going over calculus facts from his advanced college course, before the pain became unbearable.

Dan cried out, the words and math in his head becoming more complicated and foreign as the pain slowly morphed into a gentle, pleasant vibration. The words and math slowly slipped from his mind, his once brilliant brain turning into a dumb, empty hole, as it became harder and harder for Dan to picture even basic metal math. "Fuuuuck" Dan moaned again as the pleasant vibration consumed his whole being. "Fuckin A..." Dan whispered in his new, deep timbre as complex thoughts became harder and harder to imagine, almost feeling like he was high. He chuckled again, as the words and math disappeared from his mind. "N-nooo, I'm dumb..." Dan slurred, his voice sounding slow and drunk.

Dan blinked and chuckled, as his mind turned completely empty, only capable of simple, primal thoughts and urges. "I'm horny..." Dan growled, his voice sounding like the sexy, rugged surfer he had always dreamed of being. His new, handsome, chiseled face broke out into a stupid grin, a look that would become the new himbo's default expression. "But the fuck am I doing here..." Dan chuckled again as his dorm room began to shift and morph. He blinked and giggled as the white, clean walls turned to a worn, brown wood. He blinked and laughed as his desk shifted and molded, becoming a simple bed frame and dresser, his computer changing into a surfboard and a cooler.

"Oh fuck yessssssss" Dan moaned, his cock pulsing and dripping precum. "I'm at the beach!" Dan cried, looking around his new room. There was a small, circular window where his door had once been, allowing the sunlight to illuminate his room. Even the time on the clock changed as the heat accosted Dan one final time, this time in his vocal cords.

"Owowowow" Dan groaned and coughed as the final effects took place. His vocal cords became even more raw, coarse, and masculine, his voice dropping an octave lower. "What the fuck, mate" he gasped, his accent changing as he spoke. Gone was his once boring, nondescript American accent, replaced by a low, gruff, sexy Aussie drawl, his words slurred together and slow as he vigorously jacked his still-hard cock, his blonde pubes caked with sweat.

"Oh fuck, oh shit, uhhhh" Dan moaned, his balls beginning to pulse as the heat traveled from his neck down his spine. "G-gonna...cummm..." Dan moaned, feeling the pressure build in his nuts. He felt them begin to pulse, and then he exploded, the biggest, loudest orgasm of his life erupting from his cock, the stream of cum enormous as the windows fogged up and the floor began to soak. His cock pulsed and pulsed, a seemingly endless river of cum.

"Ughhh" Dan grunted, as his orgasm finally began to subside. "Awww shit, my dick's really fuckin big" Dan giggled, the sound reverberating through his room and causing the glass in the window to vibrate. "Mmmm, but my balls are so heavy" he groaned, cupping his fat nuts and letting the weight settle.

As he heard the final change, a small crackling noise coming from his brain, he realized the beach was gone, his old, boring life was gone, and a whole new world had opened up for him. He would never forget his old life, but it would always seem to Dan as a distant memory. Dan giggled, as his brain finally stopped working, replaced with a dumb, happy, empty void, incapable of stress or worry.

"Fuck yeah, mate!" Dan cried, his stupid, happy grin returning. "I'm a surfer dude!" he yelled, his accent slurred. He jumped around his new beachside shack, the dumb himbo bouncing around the room. He was naked, and the heat from the sun warmed his sweaty, blonde, hairy body. He breathed deeply once more, the salty, fresh air filling his lungs, the scent of the ocean mixing with the pungent smell of his own rancid, musky male scent, before walking to his dresser, his cock still hard and leaking. "Man, I gotta get my trunks on if I'm gonna score tonight" he giggled. Dan's mind was empty and happy, only able to process the most simple of thoughts, and that was good enough for him.

As he grabbed his favorite swim trunks and slipped them on, he walked back over to the window, looking out onto the beach. There were hot girls and guys, all scantily clad and tan, running about, playing in the waves and lounging. He could feel the sand between his toes, and could almost taste the cool, crisp water of the sea. He was finally free of his old life, and now he was here, the happiest himbo surfer there ever was.

Stray Kids, Episode 8:  the audience is filled with camera men

Concert time in Shinchon!  We have our Stray Kids, a concert stage in the middle of the street, tons of fans, and some mystery guests posing as fans to evaluate and possibly eliminate.  There’s a LOT at stake here.  Let’s goooo!

The show is still calling this “busking.”  I think actual buskers would like a word.

Our boys are overwhelmed by the crowd size and trying to get their bearings.  They bow and make their very first introduction to the public.  The girls scream in response.  Bang Chan thanks everyone for coming out on such a cold night.  The girls scream in response.  Han asks if anyone has been watching their survival show on Mnet.  The girls scream in response.  Are the group’s mics even on? 

The group members then introduce themselves individually, and while they wait for their turns, Woojin and Bang Chan spot Jun K from 2pm in the crowd, along with Rado of the songwriting and production team Black Eyed Pilseung.  We have our first mystery guests! 

Jun K and Rado

Our next two are Noh Kyu Min and Yoon Joon Pil.  They’re celebrity reporters from TenAsia, a pop culture news website similar to Entertainment Weekly or PopMatters.

TenAsia celebrity reporters

We’re not done.  As Changbin talks to the crowd, we see two more mystery guests arrive backstage.  It’s Yugyeom and BamBam from GOT7!  As they settle in to watch the show on a monitor, they’re joined by – oh my God I love this group – Sungjin and YoungK from Day6!

So much is happening at once.  Onstage, Seungmin announces their first song, “Hellevator.”  The crowd knows this one, since the music video has been out for a while.  This is a rough one for our boys, because they’ve had to change the song’s arrangement and choreo from nine members to eight.  (Seriously, when is Lee Know coming back?)

No time to dwell on it.  Time for “Hellevator.”  Let’s do this.

A few mistakes here and there.  Someone’s clip-on mic comes loose.  (They’re all moving so fast, I can’t see whose it is.)  Woojin’s voice misses a high note.  They’re clearly nervous, but overall, it’s a good performance.  They just need to shake off the pressure, clip that mic back on, and focus.

Changbin acknowledges to the crowd that they are now eight instead of nine.  “Today, I think about him more,” he says.  The crowd shouts encouragement.  I.N, who is an immediate crowd favorite, announces the next song.  It’s “School Life.”   He really is adorable.  Okay, showtime!

WAY better.  They’re more confident now, and Bang Chan interacts with the audience, provoking even more adoring screams.  They seem to be having fun now.  And based on the way even the mystery guests are gushing over him, I think I.N is safe from elimination.

The boys announce their final song, “YAYAYA.”  We haven’t heard this one yet, but it’s the one Felix was nervous about in the last episode.  We learn that they’ve all had a hard time writing and choreographing this new song in a week, along with the overall rehearsal.  They’re all stressed out, and Bang Chan tells us in a confessional that he’s most worried about Felix being eliminated.

We get a flashback to Felix practicing for hours by himself and constantly making mistakes.  He suddenly leans against the wall, slides down to the floor, and bursts into tears.

I need a minute.

JYP, if you eliminate that Aussie boy, I will (looking up Australian slang) get aggro on your ass and bung on a blue.  I don’t know exactly what that entails, but I mean every bloomin’ word, mate.

Flashback over.  Showtime.  Come on, Felix…

I love the song.  I love the wild energy of the choreo.  It’s going incredibly well, and then …

It’s hard to get a clear screenshot, but Felix stumbles during a dance step and almost falls.  He recovers immediately and keeps going like nothing happened, but our celebrity guests definitely noticed.  The fans, of course, don’t care.  They may have been too obsessed with I.N to even notice.

The performance seems to keep going well, and now Felix gets a rap solo.  Let’s see him redeem himself.  This is the rap he’s been practicing over and over this past week.

Something’s off.  I can tell from the expression on Jun K’s face.  The subtitles won’t tell us what���s going on, but I think Felix may have been struggling with the lyrics.  The boys then finish the song by throwing confetti into the crowd and landing perfectly in their final formation. 

They did it.  The concert is a success.  Felix made some mistakes, but the others made mistakes during the first song.  I think he’ll be okay.  Honestly, based on the crowd reaction, I don’t see anyone getting eliminated today.

Seungmin thanks the crowd and mentions again that they miss Lee Know.  At first, I’m wondering why the group keeps bringing him up, but then I remember the audience has been watching the show.  They know he’s been eliminated.  The group has to address it.  He’s the elephant on the stage.

The group bows, says goodbye, and leaves the stage.  The exhilaration gives way to anxiety as they remember they’re about to be evaluated by a lot of famous people.  They go backstage and find our GOT7 and Day6 guests.  They didn’t even know these idols were watching.

GOT7 and Day6 talk with our boys about what it was like back when they were busking.  Fun Fact:  The English word “busking” is the same word they use in Korean.  Second Fun Fact:  WHAT THEY DID WAS NOT BUSKING.  Good grief …

We now cut to the day after the concert, and I’m really getting nervous now.  JYP has met with Jun K and Rado to review footage of the concert and has told them to judge “coldly.”  I stress-eat a box of Triscuits.  Now the boys are lined up waiting for their evaluation.  For some reason, the room is dark.  It looks like they’re about to be executed.  Then JYP comes in and sits at a table in front of them.  Here we go.

Turns out the concert did not go as well as the fans and I thought it did.  JYP tells them he is looking for improvement and growth potential, and he’s worried that some members will take too long to improve.  He says he has to eliminate someone who has been the biggest weakness to the team.

I can’t breathe.

He tells Bang Chan he has to improve in everything.  His vocals aren’t stable.  He tells Woojin that both his vocals and dancing need work.  And Hyunjin still has trouble enunciating when he raps. 

JYP is more direct when he gets to Felix.  He looks Felix right in the eye and says, “You made a mistake in the end.  Why did you do that?”

Felix stays quiet.  JYP keeps going.  “A bigger problem is that when you rap, it doesn’t reach out to me at all, Felix, because you lack in Korean language.”  His voice is scolding now.  I’m dreading whatever’s about to happen.

JYP takes a long pause. Then he sighs deeply and says that the potential eliminations are Hyunjin, Woojin, and Felix.  Of course he’s not going to eliminate Bang Chan.  This group needs their leader.

Another long pause. 

He tells Woojin he’ll give him another chance to improve.  Now it’s down to Hyunjin and Felix.

Again, he tells Felix he’s not good in Korean.  He needs to become fluent, which will take time.  But he needs more time than the company has to give him. 

So, Felix is eliminated.

Felix doesn’t seem to register the news at first.  He just nods his head.  But his fellow Aussie Bang Chan is blinking back tears.  Everyone else is staring at the floor.

JYP goes on to lecture the group about how big the competition is out there, but I’m just waiting for Felix to react.  He just isn’t moving.

JYP tells them this elimination will make the group better, which really has to sting.  I just want him to shut up at this point, but he tells the remaining seven members to knit themselves tightly together, and he hopes that there will be no more eliminations. 

He stands to leave and tells Felix, “You’ve worked hard.”  Felix bows and thanks him.  When JYP leaves, Felix drops his head and turns away from the rest of the group.  Now he cries.  His bandmates try to comfort him.

Felix sobs as he apologizes for letting them down, and this is just awful.  The worst part is that I understand the decision.  Not being fluent in Korean is a huge problem when you’re trying to be a K-pop idol.  Learning a language takes way longer than the two months Felix has been here.  If I were watching this show when it first aired, the decision would have broken my heart, but I would have understood.  It’s only through seeing what a huge star he is now, and how necessary he is to Stray Kids now, that I know it’s not the right decision.

Now we get a moment that I’m pretty sure must be iconic in the STAY fandom.  Bang Chan walks over to Felix.  In his Australian-accented English, he says, “Always find me, yeah?  I’m never going to leave you behind.”

I don’t know exactly what’s happening in Bang Chan’s mind right now, but he clearly hasn’t given up.

Felix hugs the rest of his bandmates, and I’m a mess.  I know he’s coming back at some point, but this is just AWFUL.  We then see him in a confessional. He just looks exhausted.

“My heart hurts a lot,” he tells us.  For someone whose Korean is supposed to be so terrible, he’s really expressing himself now.  “I don’t know what I should do now.”

Hyunjin tells us, “Felix is like a child.  He needs to be taken care of.  He has such a warm heart.”  Okay, this is officially killing me.  Please make it stop.

We get a montage of Felix’s time on the show, set to sad piano music, and I hate everything.

Now Bang Chan is crying in a confessional.  Through his sobs, he’s still speaking English.  “Even when you were really struggling, I should have been there.  I’m so sorry.”  That’s all he can get out.

We end with Felix looking into the camera and saying, “To all the Stray Kids members, I’m really thankful.  Thank you for helping me a lot.  Thank you so much.  I’m sorry I can’t be together with you guys.” 

With that, the episode ends.

Dammit, Bang Chan, I know you have something planned.  Whatever it is, get it done.  Get BOTH our boys back.

Hazbin Hotel Ep 5&6 Oh My God (Major Spoilers)

I am having so many thoughts, this is just a brain dump

-LUCIFER. He’s so pathetic I love him

-Jeremy Jordan you fucking legend. I’m a big fan of a lot of his work and was excited to see him in this but I was slightly unsure if he was the right casting since I expected Lucifer to be more of a high and mighty/snobby figure, but with the way they characterised him HE IS PERFECT.

-“TAKE THAT DEPRESSION”

-The Lucifer vs Alastor rivalry is beautiful

-“Ha ha, fuck you.”

-Father figure Alastor

-HIS EARS GO BACK LIKE A CAT WHEN HES ANGRY I CANT

-MIMZY’S ARRIVAL. I know most of us know the lore about her and Alastor being developed as a couple before it was scrapped but I really like how they are in the show

-Even if it’s just crumbs I’m so excited to be getting snippets of Alastor’s lore. It’s wild to keep going back and forth between “aw he actually cares for and protects his friends” and “oh my god he’s a fucking psycho”

-Speaking of that the scene with Husk holy shit. Poor man looked terrified

-The confirmation that Alastor’s also stuck working for someone, it has to be Lilith surely. I know some people will call it predictable because a lot of theories are coming true but personally I think it’s from good worldbuilding/foreshadowing

-ALASTOR IN FULL DEMON FORM JUST ANNIHILATING EVERYONE and then he just goes “Ah that was fun, now back to it”

-I kinda like the parallel between Al and Mimzy & Angel and Cherri where they invite their friends to join them if they want to, even if neither of them take it up initially maybe we’ll see them join the hotel in the future?

-BABY CHARLIE

-I really expected Lucifer to be a dickhead and a shitty dad, but he seems to be an overall better guy than most people in hell

-CHERRI BOMB ARRIVAL! And she’s Aussie now fuck yeah represent

-I still love her and Angel’s friendship even if she is a terrible influence. Everyone’s got that friend who’s solution to a bad day is just self-destruction but they mean well at least

-DARREN CHRIS TOO, THE MUSICAL THEATRE/BROADWAY ACTOR CASTING IS STACKED

-Emily is so sweet I love her

-The Molly cameo is so sweet, I was waiting for her to appear somewhere but lowkey forgot she was in heaven. Honestly though how did she get there when the rest of her and Angel’s family got condemned for what they did together? Maybe she left the mob or something idk I just hope we get to meet her properly at some point

-Heaven’s real fucked up? Yeah not shocked

-VAGGIE?? FALLEN ANGEL REVEAL?? AND SHE WAS AN EXTERMINATOR???? I know most of us called it but holy shit I didn’t expect it to be confirmed this soon

-Adam is such a dick but he’s so much fun

-I love that Charlie was gonna start her court presentation with definitions like a high school essay

-“Consent is a good name for a sex club” the gentleman Husk truthers gonna have fun with this one

-Pentious hitting on Cherri is hilarious and totally not the same level of subtlety I flirt with when I’m drunk

-Hearing more and more about how Val treats Angel is so sad especially with how casually he talks about it since it’s just another day for him

-Him parenting drunk Nifty is beautiful

-“You wanna play with the kitty?”

-Valentino is my #1 enemy

-Seeing Angel stand up to him to protect his friends is making me feel feelings. Like he knows that he’s gonna be treated even worse for it but I think he’s reaching his tipping point and shits gonna go down soon

-Also I know there’s a popular theory that he’s gonna die soon and a lot of the theories are coming true so I am scared. I kind of don’t think this one’ll happen though since he’s the fan favourite and its just too soon to take that much of a risk. Plus Vivsie’s admitted he’s the best written character and it’d be such a waste of all that development

-More sweet moments between him and Husk, they’ve gotten me so invested in this ship so fast

-The fact that most of heaven didn’t know about the extermination?? Wild

-Idk how I feel about the timeskip between Ep 4&5, they’re only a month away from the extermination now. Yes it’s making the stakes feel higher but I do wish we’d been able to see more of that time for the relationship development, all the characters seem much closer than before and we’ve only seen bits of how they got there

-I really wish they’d greenlit more than 8 episodes to pace things a little better but I’m glad we have season 2 confirmed

-That last minute ‘reveal Vaggie’s past to Charlie, boot them out of heaven and then cut to credits before she can react’ is gonna torture me until next week

-I don’t disagree with past criticism that Vivzie’s female characters can feel a bit underwritten but I think it’s getting better

-“We’re coming to the hotel first” plus all the theories that someone’s gonna die are fucking stressing me out man

Anyway hope you enjoy the brain dump, this show has once again consumed my thoughts

What if on every ma! reader's birthday Hugh and Y/N play their favourite game: What presents Y/N's exes sent?" While most men would be insecure, Hugh would be delighted because he bagged the baddie and not everyday Killian Hennessy sends you thousands of dollars worth of perfumes and Mark Webber sends the same bottle of wine they drank at their first date (if it's a good drank it's a good drank)

had to google killian hennessy and oh my god ma!reader has TASTE

ok talking about ex’s i know I’ve talked about ma!reader having other relationships before hugh so here’s a timeline of her relationship in order:

will harmon (highschool bf): y/n’s first ever relationship was during her sophomore year of high school. Will was on the basketball team while y/n was in film and book club. They met during a party at y/n’s friends house and started dating all through sophomore year and halfway through junior year. The breakup was mutual and they remained friends.

killian hennessy (1991-1991) so thanks anon for mentioning this beautiful man <3 ok so ma!reader and killian met an at event in los angeles and they kept in contact. They dated for ten months and again the break up was mutual. (You can make up why they broke up run wild with this babes)

edward norton (1994-1995) yup mr narrator was with y/n jackman 😌 so y/n was actually convinced she was gonna marry edward and have kids but ya know life doesn’t work out and they break up a day before her birthday

mark webber (1996-1997) so mark and y/n met at a the monaco gp in 96’ and started dating shortly after. They’re five years apart in age (y/n was born in 1971) and with mark traveling for his f1 career and y/n getting roles and filming, they hardly saw each other so it led to their breakup. Mark still talks about y/n and invites her to races when she’s not busy. (Some fans are convinced they had an affair going on but our girl is happily married with her other Aussie)

hugh jackman (1998-present) okay the moment everyone has been waiting for. so ma!reader and hugh met at an oscar’s after party in early 1998 and by june of that year, they started dating and in 1999, they got married and in 2000 they had their first baby :)

What were the key things you found interesting/ liked most in the podcast/interview from yesterday?

So, aside from the things I already covered in the previous asks from aussie anon (just search the "aussie anon" or "snc video review" tags on my blog if you want to read those!), here is what I found interesting/noteworthy during yesterday's podcast:

1, The anxiety discussion: I may have mentioned this earlier (I can't even remember anymore), but I found it interesting how they both found and bonded with each other because of their crippling insecurities, shyness, social awkwardness and anxiety, and yet they both experience/d that in such different ways, and have dealt with it in different ways as well.

I may have said this before as well, but to me, there is a difference between anxiety with a little a, and Anxiety with a big A - and these two are a great example of those differences and how they present themselves and are dealt with. (This is not an indictment for or against anyone suffering from either form, btw - I just think there are difference between the two different ways people can experience anxiety and how they are handled).

Sam has "little a" anxiety. His anxiety was situational, had a clear starting/trigger point, and could be mitigated by addressing the triggers. He had severe insecurity in himself and had a massive fear of public speaking and being noticed because of that; hence, the thought of being noticed or putting himself out there triggered anxiety in him. Once he gained the confidence he needed to put himself out there, he figured out the key to managing those anxious situations, and hasn't had many issues with it since.

Colby has "big A" Anxiety (and yes, I know Sam hastened to say "we haven't been diagnosed" and that's fine, but I'm still rolling with this cause as a person with the official big A Anxiety diagnosis and certificate, I recognize the signs). His Anxiety is chronic, probably chemical, and can present itself at any time, for any reason. There may be some clear triggers (I know he mentioned before that feeling trapped can trigger it), but just as often, he probably just wakes up anxious with no idea why. There's no clear start, and no clear ending to it. It just...is. Knowing is half the battle though, and once you recognize what is going on with your body and what the symptoms are, then yes - you can work with that to lessen the stranglehold it has on your daily life. It is a never-ending struggle, though, and he explained that pretty well (for what little he actually did spend explaining it).

2, Sam's dad being so business minded and smart that he could not only see that these two crazy kids had something going, but that he convinced them to start up their company while they were still in high school is wild. That man has the true gift of foresight lol.

Also, on the subject of parents: all this talk of Sam's dad being such a help to them, so supportive of them, and a hero of sorts to Sam...and all we get from Colby is "our families weren't always supportive." :/

3, The fact that as soon as they got away from Sam's dad's influence, they immediately got scammed into signing away all their adsense under a shitty 3 year deal is kind of funny, actually. I mean, it's sad that it happened, but another point there for our old pal Kirk Golbach, who never woulda let that shit fly, amirite?

Not to mention, this is probably part of the reason why they are so involved in the decision making in every aspect of their business even now and I understand that, having dealt with vendor contracts for a huge portion of my career even though I am emphatically NOT a lawyer. I can only trust myself to not scam myself...so I get it.

4, I think I mentioned this already, but the Sam Pepper Prank.

Look, I know that this fandom has a habit of woobifying Sam, and I know it stems from this. It does. Let's stop denying that this set the tone for how everyone views and treats Sam vs Colby, even to this day.

But the fact that people have gone so far with their delusional that Sam is this hapless little meow-meow and Colby is the dark brooding villain that they would rather believe an utterly ridiculous conspiracy that Sam would actually lie about his trauma o save the guy who happily traumatized him than believe that maybe Sam is not perfect and was just as willingly involved in this, has always frustrated the fuck out of me.

This man has stated multiple times over the years that he was in on it. Why would he lie? Huh? Tell me. It wouldn't have been to protect Colby, cause why would he do that? From things they've said in the past, they weren't getting along that well back then anyway, and their careers obviously hadn't yet taken off to the point where it would've been detrimental to them to split off. If anything, had he split off from Colby at that time, he probably would've fared better than Colby had (since sympathy would've been on his side) so...why?

Sam Golbach is not that altrustic. Nobody fucking is. Nobody. If my mother did something like that to me, I'd motherfuck her all over the internet. Forget a friend trying it.

So...he's explained his method acting at length and how far he went to make this happen, how into it he was, etc. SO CAN WE LET THIS ONE GO NOW?!?!?

5, I admit, I completely zoned out halfway through their quasi-philosophical discussion about the egg theory and whatever else. The religious talk was interesting, but the rest? it just reminded me too much of some of the most obnoxious stoners I ever knew. These are the people who I would avoid like the plague if I saw them pulling out a joint lol.

6, snc love to speak as though they are one person who just somehow got split in two, and that was on display in this podcast. "In our life," and "our dad told us we could have a gap year" are just two examples.

Drunk Colby described it best when he said, "We're going to say something...and it's going to come out of my mouth."

Indeed.

7, The business talk - really interesting to hear the way they operate in their business, and how they've managed to keep it running smoothly all these years when they are also best friends, roommates and basically all but married.

The fact that their finances are so intertwined that they basically have joint 401k's and investments is a little scary, so let's just hope they never have a Lennon/McCartney-esque falling out lol.

But yea, the fact that they don't do anything unless both are in agreement of it is pretty interesting, although the way they kind of skirted the question of "who plays more of a lead role and gets their way more often" has me concerned for Colby, cause we know it ain't him lol.

8, This is going to ruffle some feathers, but I just don't care to be nice about this topic anymore so I'm going to say it. If you think this will upset you, then you should probably just skip this part and go right to #9:

Sam gives me fucking anxiety.

There. I said it. That man feels like an energy drink to me (in a bad way). When he was talking about his obsession with productivity and how he felt like any time he wasn't working was time wasted, I could literally feel my throat closing up from the intense up-ness of that whole discussion and his whole demeanor during it.

I've been in the corporate game for most of my career. I do not like people obsessed with productivity to the point of burn out. Their vibes make me wildly uncomfortable.

Also, I'm sorry - kind of hypocritical how he can say all that while having hired himself some editors and leaving his 50/50 partner holding the whole bag there.

Ahem, anyway: even with all that, I find it interesting that he is fully aware this is an issue, and claims to have tried to solve it. I hope it sticks, cause if it doesn't, this man will have his first heart attack at 32. Calling it now.

Also, lol at Colby being like "Nah, I can chill all day and veg out knowing that I did my shit." GOOD FOR YOU, SIR. Guess who won't be having a heart attack at 32? The supposed lazy guy lol.

9, I found the way Colby talked about having kids to be very interesting, and again - another way in which I think he and Sam differ and yet somehow wind up meshing perfectly.

It seems, from what Colby has said, that he wants to have kids in his 30s and will see that as being his new passion/job in life, meaning the kids will come first and he will gladly walk away from the constant traveling to be a present dad.

Sam, meanwhile, didn't really say much on the topic of kids, but we all know thanks to recent events that he is not ready for any of that, and kind of sees settling down as sort of an end to his youth and fun.

And you know what this made me realize? And it's sad, but I think it's something Sam sees too, maybe.

I think Colby will be the one to pull the plug on the snc channel someday.

Now, I do not think these two will ever be able to function without living in each others' back pockets - but I think Colby is going to be the one to force them both into retirement from a frequent posting and traveling standpoint, and will probably be content to just live off of whatever other side businesses and streams of revenue they will have going for their brand by then. Sam, meanwhile, is probably not going to be able to handle it and will get into either directing or producing or something like that.

But their wives are going to have to learn how to be friends with one another, or shit's gonna be awkward when these two decide to buy houses next door to one another and connect them by a tunnel in the basement.

Anyway, that's it (I think). Overall, lots of info we already knew, but a lot of new info peppered in, and a really decent look into their dynamic and who they are as people. I kind of liked it!

Bonus Item (I lied when I said I was done lol): The whole "following fat people" thing.

Colby was right with what he said, he just said it in a way that was bound to get his dumb little ass in trouble lol.

But he wasn't wrong. Look at all the controversies that happen every single day on tiktok, and how quickly everyone moves past them as soon as a new controversy pops up. There is too much content out there, too much drama, and it all just overlaps one another. This would be maybe 2 days of backlash, tops (especially if they weren't well known).

I'm not saying its right or it's wrong to do it, but that really is the way the internet operates these days.

Interview: Bengal Tigers (Australia)

14 minutes The Nwothm Born in the backyards and high schools of late 70s Melbourne, Bengal Tigers have long been one of Aussie metal’s best-kept secrets. Mixing NWOBHM grit with suburban swagger, they carved a place in the scene with wild stage shows, tiger-skin boots, and a sound as ferocious as their name. Now, after years of laying low, the Tigers are back with a new album “Cry Havoc” and…

The Drifter Launch Date and What to Expect

The Drifter demo throws you headfirst into a gritty, fast-paced point and click thriller game on Linux, Mac, and Windows PC. Thanks to the creative minds at Powerhoof and the talents of Dave Lloyd. It has an unforgettable style, working to find its way onto both Steam and GOG.

If you’re anything like me — a diehard adventure game fan with a soft spot for gritty stories, pixel art, and that sweet old-school feel — then listen up. The Drifter is due to hit your summer gaming calendar with something unique.

Indie dev legends Powerhoof (yep, the duo behind Crawl and Peridium) are finally unleashing their newest creation: The Drifter — a fast-paced, razor-sharp point and click thriller that’ll keep your fingers twitching and your heart racing. The game officially launches on July 17, 2025. And yes, a Linux demo is already live on Steam. So if you’re ready, it’s time to get downloading.

Now let’s talk The Drifter. Imagine this: You’re Mick Carter, a loner hopping boxcars back to a home you barely remember. One second you’re minding your own business, the next you witness a brutal murder, get chased by high-tech goons, drowned in a reservoir—and then bam—you wake up, seconds before you die.

Yeah. You read that right. You’re alive again, but something feels... off. And it’s not just that you’re now framed for murder, hunted, and unraveling a web of conspiracies thicker than a Stephen King novel. Something came back with you. Something that shouldn't be here.

The Drifter - Release Date Trailer

If you’re getting John Carpenter meets Michael Crichton with a shot of 70s Aussie grindhouse vibes, you’re exactly where Powerhoof wants you. The Drifter is all about atmosphere, drama, and pacing. It doesn’t drag—it drives. The story grips you and doesn’t let go. As for the puzzles? They offer just enough to scratch that classic adventure itch without grinding the game to a halt.

And the presentation? Oh man. Crunchy pixel art, fluid animation, and a dark-synth cinematic score that feels like you’re in an 80s sci-fi nightmare (in the best possible way). Plus, it’s fully voice-acted, which makes the whole thing feel seriously high-budget for an indie.

Best part? You can play with your mouse, keyboard, or even a Playstation or Xbox controller thanks to the unique twin-stick setup. Perfect for those late-night sessions on your or for lounging back with a gamepad on your big screen.

So, whether you're a Linux gamer looking for your next fix, or just hungry for a new story-driven thrill ride, do not sleep on The Drifter. Download the free demo now (Chapter One’s a wild ride by itself) and get a taste before Steam Next Fest kicks off from June 9 to June 16.

This one’s not just another retro throwback—it’s a fast-paced point and click thriller punch to the gut. And I, for one, can’t wait to see where it takes us next. Coming to Linux, Mac, and Windows PC on July 17th via Steam and GOG.

What Tana Mongeau Has Been Up To Lately

So if you’ve been on the internet at all recently, you’ve probably seen Tana Mongeau popping up again, she’s been doing a lot.

First off, she’s going on tour with her best friend Brooke Schofield for their podcast Cancelled. They’re even going international, like all the way to Sydney, Australia. Apparently, she’s planning to talk about some drama with Aussie influencers Anna Paul and Mikaela Testa while she’s over there, which is very on-brand for Tana. She said she might dance under the Sydney Opera House just to stir things up.

She also opened up recently about dropping out of high school, which was actually kind of interesting. She said she used to only show up on Fridays to catch up on gossip, but eventually even that was too much. One day, she wore zebra flip-flops to school, looked around, and just left. Like, for good. It’s kind of wild, but considering where she’s at now, clearly that decision didn’t ruin her life or anything.

Another thing that caught people’s attention is that she turned down a ton of money like, millions to promote a political campaign she didn’t agree with. She didn’t say exactly who it was, but she made it clear it wasn’t something she could support. Say what you want about her, but that’s a pretty big deal.

And then there’s the whole thing with Hinge. She made a profile and the app literally banned her because they thought she was impersonating herself. Like, they thought “Tana Mongeau” wasn’t real. She posted about it saying she might never find love if dating apps keep kicking her off. Kind of hilarious, honestly.

So yeah, that’s what she’s been up to lately; tours, drama, weird app bans, and still somehow making it all work.

Dakota Johnson is a late-blooming lesbian in 'Am I Ok?'

New Post has been published on https://qnews.com.au/dakota-johnson-is-a-late-blooming-lesbian-in-am-i-ok/

Dakota Johnson is a late-blooming lesbian in 'Am I Ok?'

The first trailer for Dakota Johnson’s queer dramedy Am I Ok? has been released.

Co-directed by power couple Tig Notaro and Stephanie Allynne, Am I Ok? premiered at Sundance in 2022 and is set to hit streaming in June.

The film stars Johnson as Lucy, a 30-something who can’t figure out why she’s not connecting with any of the guys she dates.

Cut to her googling “Am I a lesbian quiz”, Lucy eventually comes out to her best friend Jane (Sonoya Mizuno).

“You did want a Volvo in high school,” Jane points out.

However, the film synopsis promises more drama to comes. “Lucy and Jane have been best friends for most of their lives and think they know everything there is to know about each other,” the synopsis reads.

“When Jane announces she’s moving to London, Lucy reveals a long-held secret.”

‘Am I Ok?’ based on real life coming-out story

The movie is based on screenwriter Lauren Pomerantz’s own coming-out story.

“I took my whole coming out late story and I used that, and I really based [Am I OK?] on a real-life friendship with my best friend Jessica [Elbaum], who is also a producer on this movie,” Pomerantz told Entertainment Weekly. 

“We had sort of a big fight, and then we’re friends again. But then simultaneously, I was struggling to come out. And so I realized that was the story that I really wanted to tell.”

Pomerantz also spoke about the ease of making Am I Ok? with other queer women at the helm.

“We got to talk about it and talk about the characters and really explore the relationship and those feelings,” she said of Notaro and Allynne.

“It was very easy to talk to them about everything because Stephanie had the experience [of coming out later]. And Tig is just very smart and hilarious and creative. So it was great.

“I loved working with them. …There was definitely a shorthand in being like, oh, remember these feelings? Yes, I had those too.”

Am I Ok? is set to premiere on Max on June 6, 2024.

Grace Cummings

St. Matthias’ Church, 09.03.2022

High church, glowing revelations from a new priestess of folk

Victoria’s Grace Cummings used to drum on ACDC covers for high school bands and has said it was Bon Scott who taught her about singing, writing and “knowing when to spit”. Her own songs build in tension to guttural release, with a brand of gutsy folk in the tradition of flamenco’s cante jondo, rather than 60s hippiedom. She comes across as a no nonsense Aussie country girl and is wholesomely profane in front of St. Matthias’ chancel. “If I burst into flames there’s a fridge with booze in it at the back. Just chuck it on me.” She disdains the “over serious, navel gazing” folk milieu, recounting how she broke the hushed reverence in the crowd at a festival, and drew evil glances, for cracking open a Kilkenny. 

This is her first performance in London and she ‘s finding it “romantic” to be wearing a coat and scarf in the streets. Cummings’ hails from the title of 2019’s Flightless Records album, Refuge Cove. Her lyrics reveal a profound sense of place and feeling for nature. ‘Sweet Matilda’, a Mexican Summer series single,  was written during Victoria’s wildfires and laments the destruction of the old Oz. She describes launching a kite over the charred landscape and its odyssey being joined by an eagle, which made her as “excited as a Jack Russell” and  inspired the song ‘Fly a Kite’.  

Cummings is also a stage actress. Her witty and charismatic banter forms a large chunk of the set. She is skilful at building intimacy and connection with her audience. She talks of Melbourne’s seemingly interminable lockdown where she felt starved of attention, and so, penned herself a love song. ‘Freak’, like ‘Fly a Kite’,  appears on a second album, 2022’s Storm Queen. This was recorded and entirely self-produced during the extended period of social austerity. “It’s an important job being a freak,” she said to HollerCountry.com in January. The album is spare and simple, with bursts of ornamentation, and addresses themes of God, loss, alienation, hurt and healing. So it seems fitting she performs solo on acoustic guitar,  switching to piano just once, for ‘Dreams’; an exquisite melody that, sadly, perishes too early. 

Her voice has the deep, melodic richness of Tracey Chapman or Odette and a searing rasp at points of crescendo and intense feeling that invokes the ghost of Janis Joplin. Live there is an element of possession that takes hold of her, making her wild eyed and baring ursine teeth. St Matthias church was bomb damaged during the Second World War and might feel as though it’s been struck again. She talks of Van Gogh’s therapist in a painting in the Musee d’Orsay, whose expression implores Van Gogh to “stop”. “ My own ceiling screams back at me,” she confides.  She often gazes up, mid song, at the nave’s beautifully restored roof. Birds feature heavily in her imagery and, on Storm Queen’s ‘Up In Flames’,  she seems owl-like in her gaze, transmuting the transepts into a falconer’s mews.  

To summit a stirring evening,  Storm Queen’s ‘Heaven’ segues into Neil Young’s ‘Pocahontas’ and  final offering ‘Paisley’, about the bleak, Scottish town, cements her in the anglosphere, with its caledonian tones. “See you on the other side,” she says. A thunder of applause foreshadows a groundswell for her fearless clouds to buffer these shores once again.

guess everyone was like that if they lost, no one really liked to lose, but how athletes that accepted it was purely up to them. she had seen this differently from her own matches and watching the boys tennis team play.

she had mentioned that she did camping with her father, her younger brother did come along from time to time, but he wasn't really a fan of it. it wasn't for everyone, maybe kagami had done this before? to hear that he hadn't, her eyes beamed, they could go somewhere together to experience this. camping at a backyard didn't count. "then we can have a full camping experience!" it wasn't really what she thought anyway, having a tent put up and relying on bought food or anything in the wild.

shinoa had explained as best as she could with what she knew about aussie high school. they were different to schools here in japan, they didn't have many holidays or school festivals, perhaps one day she could go with someone overseas for fun. maybe her explanation of netball wasn't the best, but she did try to say it was like two other sports, mostly women played, but men were slowly coming to play this sport too.

"i still don't really understand it myself, i played once but...i still prefer tennis." it was easier for her as she was more used to it rather than other sports, but it didn't mean she wasn't willing to try. seigaku had a sports festival where students signed up for different sports, those in a sport club normally had to play something else other than what they were in.

"i guess you'd prefer the sport that you're more used to rather than something else you haven't played before." though he probably wouldn't think much if he did see her play tennis, even if she could appreciate how someone played their respective sport.

sportbaes:

perhaps that was the difference between the both of them? she could deal with it, she had come across various of arrogant players, even her kohai who somehow self proclaimed herself as the rival of the captain. "oh? well if you put them in their place, i doubt these guys would be arrogant before you." from what she thought from her viewpoint.

he was probably thinking about the flaws of these generation of miracles guys. kagami seemed like one of those guys who got worked up from meeting guys who were up themselves. cute.

surfing as a hobby? something she didn't get to do, camping? yes. not that she got to do that often, but it was different and relaxing. "oh? that sounds fun, i've seen people surf, but i don't think i could do it. i usually prefer to camp when i have time."

it was fine to hear him talk about himself, she didn't mind saying a bit about herself too. yet he had a point, she knew quite a few who were rather tall. it was usually about the genes anyway. her uncle was rather tall, maybe not as tall as the red head was. "you're right, i know a few tall people myself, so i think it depends on the genes."

oh, point guards weren't the tall ones? that would make sense, she didn't know much about basketball. though shinoa thought she could look up the rules or the positions for each player. it was different to tennis, but she wondered how she'd do if she attempted to play? maybe she could always try it.

laughter emitted from her lips, that was rather different since japan also had after school clubs. maybe it was different and it depended if it was important or not, certainly that was the case here. "no, most people just go home. the seniors usually stay behind if they took drama as a subject. others do stay behind if they participate in their school's sport team, although, that's normally netball."

he probably didn't know what that was, it was hard to explain. "netball is uh...a sport thats a mix of volleyball and basketball." it was the best way she could think of it as, it required a team, members to score the ball into a hoop, maybe he'd understand from that?

Taiga was easily angered so naturally he couldn't deal with the arrogance of the Generation of Miracles.

He snickered. "...Yeah, you're right about that. Kise wasn't exactly happy when we beat him."

Taiga wasn't cruel enough to talk about how Kise actually shed tears for supposedly losing for the first time. Kise's captain didn't seem convinced that he had never lost before either. No one was perfect when they started playing basketball! So maybe the blonde was bluffing!

"Camping?"

He smiled again as he replied "Sounds fun. I never got the chance to do real camping but it always looked fun. I just camped out at a friend's backyard." His dad was always busy with work but he wasn't happy when he and Tatsuya tried to run away from home that one time so there was no way he could actually get away with camping at an actual campsite so he could only camp out at Tatsuya's backyard to have a camping experience.

He nodded in regards to how some Asians possessed genetics for tall height. "Yeah, that sounds about right."

Some point guards were the exceptions in regards to them being the shortest on the team but having good vision of the court well as acting like a coach on the court were critical qualities to being a point guard.

Well, that was interesting to know. Australians could only stay behind at school in their third year if they had drama club or were part of another sport he had never heard of. The term “Netball” was absolutely foreign to him out of the many types of sports he knew about.

"...Netball?"

"Oh."  He replied after hearing Evans’ explanation.

Well, now that she explained the sport, it somewhat made more sense although he couldn't fully visualize it.

Well, now that she explained the sport, it somewhat made more sense although he couldn't fully visualize how the sport was played. Maybe he’d have to Google it on his phone later on if he recalled the name.

600+ words of a vampire amongst wolves feeling like a fish out of water

“Ash, get a move on, or I’m eatin your share! He was just in the living room; how does your mate manage to be late for a dinner he was already here for?”

“Don’t look at me. One sec he was next to me, next he was gone. Maybe he’s been learning a thing or two from Sneaks.”

“If only he’d learn how to get good, scrub!”

“Fight fight fight fight fight fight-“

“Don’t encourage them, Angel.”

“I am good, but you and Milo teamed up on me, you dickhe- oh, shit, that smells really good.”

“Could you please act your age and wait for everyone to be served before you stuff your face? No one’s fighting you for the roast.”

“I don’t know if I can, Chrissy. What do you say, Lex? 1v1 me for the center slice? Mano a womano?” The jovial werewolf takes a seat next to the stoic vampire and puts his fists up, jabbing playfully at her arm.

Alexis, who’d been sitting stone still at Christian’s side, blinks at his raised hands, and the chatter around the table hushes. To the wolves and unempowered people looking on, her gaze seems frosty and intimidating, but a telepath would have a field day with the chaos behind those eyes.

Do I punch him back? No, he’s not Vincent and not as strong-

Do I laugh? No, then my fangs might show-

Do I-

I’m just staring-

No one is talking-

As Christian’s hand joins hers in her lap with a reassuring squeeze, David’s hand sits heavy on the back of her seat as he puts a basket of rolls on the table.

“If she wants it, she gets it. After all, Alexis is basically the one who made it and half the sides,” the alpha says, knocking his knuckles against the wood of the chair before flicking his beta on the forehead. Asher’s face widens into a bright grin she tentatively returns before he leans the other way to perch his chin on his mate’s shoulder.

“No shit! David, you never let anyone help you out in the kitchen!”

“Well, I wanted to get dinner out on time, and someone missed the back page of the shopping list I gave him,” David says with a pointed look as he sits at the head of the table.

“Oh, a guy gets distracted by a Santa one time, one time-” Asher emphasizes with wild, gesticulating hands and a beaming smile. “-and you like her better than your own best friend. I see how it is!” With a swivel, the werewolf wags an accusatory finger in Alexis’s face, and she raises her head to stare him down with keen, watchful eyes.

“Oh drats,” Alexis says with stone and ice affectation. “You’ve caught onto my master plan to usurp you as beta. Foiled.” Christian snickers, grinning fondly at the back of her head, and Alexis turns ever-so-slightly at the sound of his laugh. The gestures are quiet, familiar, and kind of hilariously infatuated coming from and directed at the proud, stubborn Christian. Asher can’t help but laugh too.

“Chrissy, buddy, you’re gonna let your girl take my spot? She’s got less seniority than I do!” he yells with equal parts amusement and exaggerated outrage.

“It’s like I’m always telling you, Ash,” Milo says with a wink and a smirk. “A wolf and his mate’s a package deal; they’re after you as a team!”

When they all arrive back in Dahlia, the Aussie is aghast that Marie already has pictures from the trip printed and framed on her mantle. The one awkward high school portrait from before he got his braces off isn’t there anymore, and that would be a blessing if not for the one replacing it. The image of Christian, red-faced and indignant, arguing with someone off frame while tightly, stubbornly refusing to let go Alexis’s hand is just as inescapable as Marie pestering him for grandkids.
