Warnings: uhhhhh none lol

Word Count: 2.4k

Summary: The government has successfully began the eradication of all mutant species in the United States. Lucky for you your dad has taken careful precautions to protect you from the evil that lurks in the streets outside. Tucked away in a concealed basement you sat and rotted away clinging to your old life and dreams. What happens when one day you've got a severe hankering for some ice cream and he ran out of beer the same night? Both finding yourselves in the right place at the right time.

The world as you knew it was slowly coming to an end. Mutants everywhere were dropping like flies after the government slowly started poisoning everyone's food. Unless you were an off-grid loner living off the land, you succumbed to the same fate as everyone else, 6 feet under. Lucky enough for you, your father kept you pretty sheltered. Tucked away in your fully renovated basement, the world is ignorant of your existence. It was safer this way; I mean, sure, you missed going out to bars and seeing your friends; hell, you even missed those 8 a.m. bio classes you used to take. But this was safer; at least that's what your father always preached. “It’s safer down here, away from all those evil people.” He'd remind you every day, “You're to never leave my site, kiddo, and never step outside those doors.” Not like you could anyways, while your mutation allowed you to control the atoms around you and morph them into anything your heart desired, you had one weakness, adamantium. Your house was coated in it; every doorknob, lock, and even the goddamn windows were coated in the shit. 

It was 3:00am, no one was home, and you found yourself craving ice cream. It wasn't uncommon for your dad to leave you to your own vices. He still had a job he'd have to attend to, and that more often than not led you to solidarity on his trips. And here you were in the middle of the night, the light from the fridge illuminating the dimly lit kitchen, tearing your freezer apart hoping to magically find a pint of Ben and Jerry’s buried deep in the frost. You groan, sinking down to your knees, met with disappointment and an ever-growing craving for the sweet, delicious taste of The Tonight Dough. Sure, you could've totally put in an Uber Eats order, but where would the fun in that be? You stood in front of the adamantium-cladded door, using all your strength to melt it to the ground, but to no avail. The only thing between you and your Jimmy Fallon-adorned ice cream was some space metal, and to hell if your dad really thinks that's going to curve the urge.

For the next hour, you ran around the house like a lunatic looking for a weak point. Maybe your father missed just one spot—one tiny spot in this prison he calls a home. A small hole fit for the size of a mouse teased you. Sure, you control all the atoms around you but your own? You'd never even attempted to entertain that idea, although the worst that could happen is you turn your body into a permanent pile of slop. That didn't sound too terrible when compared to being a basement dweller for the last 7 years. And it turns out it wasn't as bad as you'd thought; you melted your body down into a pile of liquid, slithering your way through the walls of your house before you were spit out from a hole in the bricks. The air on your skin cascaded goosebumps along your body; you honestly couldn't remember the last time you felt wind grace your skin or the sun illuminating off your shoulders. 

You skipped happily toward the corner store, taking in every sound around you. The sound your feet made when they hit the pavement, the distant chatter of the locals crowding down the sidewalks, even the obnoxious sound of a car horn brought a smile to your face. You finally understood the saying, ‘the city that never sleeps.’ You reached the corner store, swinging the door open and prancing inside as if it were Disney World. Your happy fantasy faded as the man behind the register yelled at you to put some shoes on before walking into his store. You looked down, wiggling your free toes, with all the excitement of liquifying yourself to get a taste of the outside world, common societal rules had slipped your mind. “I um.. Just came to grab a pint of ice cream; I’ll be really quick, I promise.” You pleaded sheepishly, offering him a quick smile to butter him up a bit. He simply rolled his eyes in disgust and turned his back to you, mumbling something under his breath.

You made your way around the convenience store towards the dairy section when something, or rather someone, caught your attention. He looked tall, and even with a leather jacket on, you could tell he was huge. He had some silly-looking facial hair and even sillier-looking cat-ear-like hair, but man, he still looked good. Your eyes slowly traveled down his arms to his pants. Cute butt, you thought to yourself. He stifled a laugh before turning in your direction and saying, “Thank you.” He grumbled, turning back towards the beer cooler. “What?” You ask, heat rising to your cheeks once you realize you'd accidentally said that out loud. He didn't acknowledge you, just went back to scanning the cooler. You took that as a hint to keep moving, finally landing in front of the ice cream section and grabbing the last pint of your favorite ice cream. Carefully looking around to make sure nobody was watching you, you pulled the lid off and used your mutation to pull out all the atoms belonging to the anti-mutant poisons that were mixed in with the delicious sweet treat. Floating above the ice cream, you cautiously manipulated them into a different container of food and made your way back towards the front. What you didn't know was that the unfortunate corner store owner had been watching your freak act on the CCTV cameras the whole time.

Turning around one of the aisles, you had spotted two men in suits talking to the man upfront. You couldn't make out what was being said as they whispered, but watching him point to you using your mutation on the TV screen explained enough to you. You backed up slowly, trying to even your breaths out before you had a panic attack. You felt someone grab your shoulder, spinning you around into them. It was Mr. Cute Butt; he must be working with those suited men too. Your eyes go wide as you focus all your energy on him. You were attempting to melt him, freeing yourself from his grasp, but it wasn't working for some reason. He just stared at your brows laced together, trying to figure out what in the fuck were you doing. “You're going to shit yourself if you keep straining like that.” He whispered a low chuckle, following after.

You froze, looking up at the man with pleading eyes. “Please don't hurt me; I just wanted some ice cream. Please i'll leave right now, sir.” You rushed out searching his face for sympathy or remorse something in hopes he'd release his grasp on you. He looked confused at what you were saying to him as if you were speaking some foreign language, but that didn't last long once you two heard footsteps approaching you. “C’mon kid.” He grumbled out, dragging you by your arm, ducking in between the small isles towards the exit. “They're over here!” The man upfront yelled, and the mystery man beside you just groaned before scooping you up into his arms and rushing you out of the store. You both quickly fell into the crowd, blending into the sea of people that populated the streets of New York. As soon as you two were outside, he'd set you on your feet, his arm still gripping your wrist, dragging you through the city with him.

“I need to go home, sir; please don't hurt me. I'm so sorry.” You cried, tears adorning your cheeks as you pleaded with him; if your father knew what was transpiring at this very moment, you'd be toast. Absolutely never allowed outside your basement ever again; you could kiss the sun goodbye because you'll probably never see it again once he gets home. He ignored your pleas though as he pushed through the crowds to a parked motorcycle on the road. “Oh no, I am not getting on that thing.” You halted your movements, digging your heels into the ground. “Suit yourself, sweet cheeks.” He laughed at you dryly hopping onto the bike, “They'll find you eventually.” He kicked the stand up, revving the bike on. You looked through the crowd behind you, worry etching onto your face. Maybe he's right; maybe I should hop on that bike and ride it into the sunset with this beautiful specimen, or he's no better than those suited men and could ultimately be leading me to my death. “Just get on the fucking bike.” He growled at the sound of sirens roaring closer to you two.

Begrudgingly, you hopped onto the back of the bike, plopping the helmet latched behind you on your head. At this rate, your sure your dad is going to skin you alive and hang you up to dry. “Hang on tight, princess.” He turned around to smirk at you. You snaked your hands around his torso, and he took off, the force causing your face to smash into his back and your grip on him tightening. You were sure if you had been gifted some form of super strength, you would've popped his torso clean off his legs with how tight you were squeezing him. You attempted to give him directions back to your house, but he couldn't hear you and kept heading in the opposite direction. He totally could hear you too, but he was ignoring your requests to return you home.

The quick 15-minute drive felt like an eternity with how utterly petrified you were. Matter of fact, you were so scared, eyes clenched shut, arms squeezing all the oxygen out of his lungs, you hadn't even noticed that you'd arrived at your mystery destination. He pried your arms off him, causing you to open your eyes; you were in complete shock. A gorgeous castle-like building stood before you, surrounded by trees, and a long gravel driveway trailed in front of it. A voice broke you from your thoughts, but this sound didn't come from the man sitting in front of you; no, it appeared like it came straight from inside your head. 'Logan, would you please introduce me to your new friend? The voice sang through you, your head whipping around frantically to find the owner of these words. “C’mon, I got someone for you to meet.” The man in front of you finally spoke, helping you off the bike and placing the helmet back in its spot on the rear. He guided you through the mansion all the way to the back, stopping at two huge double wooden doors.

“Come in, please.” Rang the same voice you heard earlier, the double doors slowly opening before you to reveal a small, bald man sitting in a chair. “And who might this be, Logan?” He questioned, looking towards the big man next to you. Logan, huh, you thought to yourself, cute name and a cute butt. Logan awkwardly shifted beside you, the bald man sending a booming laugh throughout the room. “Oh my God.. Did I say that out loud?” You whispered heat rising to your cheeks once again. Ignoring you, Logan started explaining to the bald guy, whose name you quickly learned was Charles, what happened earlier. Logan had seen what you were doing in that small store—how you made some substance float out of the ice cream and back into another pint. He assumed you were attempting to do something similar to that when he had grabbed you, and you began shaking like a Chihuahua, yet all you could think about during their discussion of the previous events was how you never got to eat the ice cream you risked your whole life for. “So,” Charles spoke, directing his attention to you. “What can you do exactly? What were you doing with that ice cream?” He hummed his eyes, raking you up and down, studying all your features. hoping they might tell him about who you are.

You were fairly normal-looking; I mean, to the average human eye, they couldn't tell you apart from another human. You felt like a deer in headlights right now, though; you'd never been asked or questioned about your mutation. You never dared to speak about it aloud; hell, your dad wouldn't even let you use your powers ever; it's like he was ashamed of you. “I can... manipulate things, i guess.” You spoke quietly; it felt taboo to you to speak about this, like this was some intimate, inappropriate topic to discuss. “And what do you mean by that?” He mused, deeply interested in your mystery. “I’m not exactly sure, sir. I just know I can do this.” You focus your eyes on the pen sat upon his desk, watching it quickly fall into a liquid puddle. “Fascinating.” Charles smiled up at you, “Can you change it back?” You trained your eyes down on the mess you created, quickly blinking as it slowly morphed back into its original shape of a pen.

Charles laughed in amusement before clasping his hands together. “We have much to discuss, little one, but for now Logan will show you to a room you can rest in. We'll talk more tomorrow.” He nodded at you before Logan had turned around out the door. You took this as your sign to follow, doors shutting behind you both. He guided you up the stairs, stopping at a random white door and handing over a towel and toothbrush he'd picked up on the way to your room. “Just try and get some sleep.” He shoved his hands in his pockets as he spoke. “I’m just up the hall if you need anything, i guess.” He nodded his head in the direction of his door. You just smiled, turning around into your room and softly closing your door. 

You had no clue where the fuck you were or what these strange men were planning to do with you. You've heard the horror stories from your dad about how the government would poke and prod you if anyone knew what you could do. you'd be a test subject for rich white males to toy and play with. You'd set the towel and toothbrush down on a chair in the room you were assigned and slowly stalked your way to the bed. As you crawled into bed attempting to get some shut eye all that you could think to yourself was, "Man my dad is soo going to fucking kill me when he finds me."

  Summary

A portion of our discussion is dedicated to the Apple Vision Pro, as both Marty and I have recently acquired these headsets. We share anecdotes about learning their controls, particularly the elusive Control Center, and how our user experiences have evolved over the weeks. I touch upon the challenges I've faced with eye movement in navigation, and Marty echoes my sentiments, highlighting the adjustment process as we become more accustomed to the device's capabilities. We also compare impressions of the Vision OS beta updates, anticipating the evolution of features such as multi-view support and improved screen sharing.

Switching gears, we discuss iOS 18.0.1, which is currently in testing to address touchscreen issues experienced by some users, including both the iPhone 16 and older models. Personal anecdotes about issues with responsiveness lead to a broader conversation about the way major updates can impact the user experience, especially with updates introduced during peak device usage.

As we shift focus, we highlight the impressive advancements of the iPhone 16 lineup. With the Pro and Pro Max models offering a host of enhanced features, we delve into comparisons such as materials, screen sizes, and camera capabilities, emphasizing the increased value the Pro models bring, especially for photography enthusiasts. The camera control button is a standout feature; we share how it streamlines photography by providing immediate access to the camera app and controls.

We also celebrate the recent updates to AirPods, particularly the introduction of the AirPods 4, which feature sound isolation. Our excitement is palpable as we discuss their potential impact on daily life and how they complement the expanding ecosystem of Apple products. I share my anticipation of taking these on a flight soon to compare their performance against my Pro models.

Moving beyond hardware, we dive into Apple Music's classical update, which enriches the listening experience with detailed album booklets and artist biographies. The exclusion of a Mac app for this service reignites frustration, especially from those of us who routinely listen to classical music while working. We collectively ponder the necessity for Apple to enhance its offerings across platforms.

Lastly, we share a lighthearted moment while recounting Tim Cook’s recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, where they discussed the new iPhone 16. The playful banter and Cook’s insights into Apple’s retail philosophy bring a fun closing to our tech-heavy episode.

As we wrap up, we invite listeners to share their experiences and thoughts on the products discussed. Overall, this episode encapsulates the thrill of the Apple community as we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of technology, reflecting on both personal experiences and broader industry trends.

Here is our latest Episode!

[fictionkinfessions]

I guess everyone calls Dean and Cas' arc in season 15 the divorce arc. When I saw someone talking about their "divorce arc" I thought I they mean season 6/7 because they did separate in my canon for a time. And then Cas died at the end of season 12 permanently so the source defined divorce arc never happened, instead Chuck tried to drive a wedge between Dean and me because he wasn't able to force one between Dean and Sam. It worked until we went to purgatory to find the leviathan flower because I guess his influence was weaker there.

They separated in my tl because instead of abducting Lisa and Ben, since Dean never got with Lisa, he abducted me. Dad was furious with Cas. I remember waking up after my rescue to them having a quiet arguement about what happened in the kitchen. I went into the kitchen and when I tried to approach Cas Dean picked me up and told him "stay away from my daughter" to which Cas responded "*our* daughter, Dean" they had a few more exchanges before Cas left and we didn't see him again until he absorbed the leviathans and then he died or what ever.

I forgave Cas immediately. I may not have understood why he was doing what he was doing, but I could tell from his emotions that he genuinely regretted what he was doing once I got dragged into it. I also knew he can't control Crowley's actions, besides he couldn't have known Crowley would see me as a loophole ("you said I couldn't harm the Winchesters. The girl is adopted. Technically, not a Winchester."). It took dad until Cas died to realize he forgave him too.

The 10 Novels I Read on May (+1 bonus cuz it's that good)

Just wanted to say that @thedollymaker and @hippo141 are angels and this post is for you guys! Hope y’all find it useful <3 

I’ll be rating and ranking the novels I’ve read from best to worst. Most (more like all) are romance novels which are also popular on BookTok. Writing the tl’dr non-spoiler ver here with more in-depth review on an upcoming post (bc tumblr deleted my half completed in-depth review and it’s nearing 1 am rn so yeah):

1. Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren - 5.1/5 🌟

I have to admit I read this on June 2022, and have read 4 more books since too but I just HAD to put this here because it's that good.

It tells the story of 2 best friends (who are almost soulmate-like imo) who have recently met again after years of losing contact. They had a falling out, but when they met everything just falls so perfectly. And we find out what happened in the past. It had the craziest twist (that i kinda knew was coming but oh my lord let me tell you that I BAWLED). BIG hurt/comfort theme. It reminds me of a warm hug and just - of Home. Home's embrace/warmth if you will.

2. It Ends With Us by Collen Hoover - 5/5 🌟

Girl meets the perfect Boy, but maybe there’s something more than meets the eye. Major page turner, this books makes me feel so much and at the same time left me feeling empty. I learnt valuable real life lessons from this book and you won’t regret picking this up. Hurt/Comfort piece. Also also, read the Author’s Note after ending the novel cuz it provided much needed clarity/resolution/peace.

3. All Your Perfects by Colleen Hover - 5/5 🌟

If you’ve read it ends with us and it left you feeling “it could’ve worked” ((not gonna spoil more but if you know, you know)), then boy is this the perfect one for you. It tells a story of this couple’s journey of overcoming terrible stuff ((think It’s Quiet Uptown, Hamilton)). And also, Best. Coho. Male. Lead. Ever. ((Graham my man, UGH)) So so Romantic.

4. The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood - 5/5 🌟

THIS IS THE CUTEST ROM-COM, way more lighthearted than the previous 2. Fake dating, ball of sunshine x broody/grumpy trope, age gap. It’s so cute and the banter is so amazing. I recommend.

5. Funny You Should Ask by Elisse Sussman - 4.6/5 🌟

This novel to me feels comforting. It’s a slow burn but in a comfortable sense? Journalist and Movie star had an unforgettable weekend that left much needed resolution. A decade later, they met again but both changed and grew for better or for worse. Sometimes, stories don’t have to be dramatic. And this novel feels genuine in a sense - a genuine adoration.

6. Verity by Colleen Hoover - 4.5/5 🌟

Murder-mystery, very suspenseful, very exciting, but leaves you mind fucked. Like after ending this, I was just like what the fuuuuck. This novels fucks with your head like ngl. Best opening scene. Young writer was tasked to finish another successful writer’s novel series after she is left incapacitated. But she found a manuscript that perhaps reveals so many terrible truths, or is it?

7. Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover - 4.1/5 🌟

This book is spicy, hot and romantic. It’s cute. Started a bit slow but it has quite a strong ending. Friends with benefits to lovers. Brother’s best friend. Pining. The my life is too much of a mess to love again trope. ((read this before november 9 for cameos)) 

8. November 9 by Colleen Hoover - 4/5 🌟

This book is fun and exciting. Boy and girl meets once a year, over a span of 5 (or 6?) years as their relationship grow. It’s endearing, how Ben (main guy) just encourages Fallon (the MC) to love herself more. 

9. In Five Years by Rebecca Serle - 3.7/5 🌟

This perfectionistic, planning and success obsessed lawyer saw a vision 5 years into the future to find her planned life so different than it is now. I’d say that this book is not what you think it is. Imo this is not a romance novel, but more on friendship and learning to letting go. Life happens, it still goes on.

10. Confess by Colleen Hoover - 3.3/5 🌟

To love is to sacrifice is the essence of this book. It’s about 2 people who is sacrificing so much to love the people they love. But maybe, they need to learn to value themselves - to not discount themselves too much. And in finding that in each other. 

11. Under One Roof by Ali Hazelwood - 3.2/5 🌟

Environmental engineer inherited a house from her mentor. But what said mentor forgot to mention was that half of the ownership of the house belonged to her nephew (who’s this lawyer at this BP-esque unethical capitalistic giga corporation). Enemies to friends to lovers. The stuck under one roof (thus the title) and the oh my god they were roommates trope. It’s short, it’s cute, it’s sweet.

----

Just wanted to say that Colleen Hoover is an amazing writer and reading it ends with you got me out of my reading slump. TikTok is a great place to find recommendations <3 Technically I read like 10 books in 2 weeks and it’s more books I’ve read in the past like what, decade? ((well maybe but like i’ve probably poured those energy into fanfics which could easily quadruple the number but eh)). What I’m trying to say is that this is fun, reading is amazing hahaha.

I’m planning on reading unhoneymooners, hopeless, maybe someday and some other more soon but let’s seee, feel free to drop recs on my askbox~

**EDIT** Ok y'all, Imma do a quick update on the ranks because I read 1 wonderful book that just OOFT.

[applesfallingfromblondehair]

I’m curious why Jimmy Kimmel is your second least fav talk show host? I know the last one is James Corden bc. Everyone hates that man lol and who’s your actual favorite?

I'm actually so glad you asked that. For me, it goes, least to worst favourite (of those who I'm aware of and have sporadically watched and/or faithfully kept up with):

Jimmy Fallon: by far the most UNFUNNY man in America, who only stays afloat because he has a host of decent writers, but who is worth jack-all on his own

Jimmy Kimmel: another awkward and deeply boring man whose show I have only watched to keep up with my faves--and have ended up disappointed every single time. Good luck, Taron.

James Corden: no, he's not at the bottom, shocker right? He holds a special place in my heart, mostly because he gives the TT boys a platform in America, and I can't overlook that. He's always very gracious to all my British faves, too, and come on: the man gave us Carpool Karaoke. (Well, Ben Winston did, really, but James was the one who brought him overseas. Overall, a win-win scenario for all of us.)

Trevor Noah: I have nothing bad to say about the guy, he's the Millennial king of late night, not to mention the only non-white man on this list. He would rank higher, if it weren't for the fact that I have a stronger emotional attachment to the other three. Plus, I think his stand-up is where it's at, really.

John Oliver: do I even need to explain myself? He's the only one who can swear, and he's a self-deprecating British delight. And his writers are fire. And he's gone on the record telling Adam Driver to step on his face. And he told that to actual Adam Driver. And *continues ad libitum*

Stephen Colbert: alright, this is a cheesy one, but he was an incredibly important part of my quarantine support system. And he's the most bisexual Boomer man on television, that has to count for something. Like I said, emotional attachment.

Seth Meyers: dad, daddy, father, my number one forever and ever. The show is the Gen X Goldilocks balance between Trevor's Millennial spleen and Stephen's Boomer it'll all be alright energy. His Corrections segment doesn't only deserve an Emmy, it deserves EGOT status. Make it into a musical, a feature film, and a chart-smashing album, Seth, we'll get you there. Incidentally, he's the only one whose interview with Taron I rewatch with unwavering pleasure. And this is why I'm linking it now, for your viewing pleasure: watch here. (Lord knows why the video isn't on YouTube anymore.)
