I have been focusing on the theme of invisibility through a series of seminars first initiated in 2011 at the Art Academy in Bergen, Norway. Through this research, I have been interested in identifying invisibility as a complex and paradoxical phenomenon – naming it, or even pointing at it, is to enter this paradox, thus providing an extremely unique basis for cultural expressions that  query or negotiate the conditions of appearance. Bringing together a range of thinkers and practitioners, the seminar has addressed  themes such as the  night, negativity, the disappeared, erasure, silence, infrastructure, and camouflage. In this essay, I intend to unpack some of my main reflections  and to consider invisibility in relation to the theme of borderlines. Focusing on invisibility, however, requires an initial engagement with the issues of visualization and appearance. As the negative of visibility, the invisible is a type of blind spot whose contours are best glimpsed by way of a critical inquiry into visualization and its intimate connection.

As the resident Jaime expert, do you have thoughts on Jaime explicitly comparing himself to Brandon Stark and saying he was a lot like him (unlike Ned) and later famously saying “There are no men like me”?
Is he just being self-contradictory?
i just think that can be attributed to jaime’s whole outlook and feelings of isolation at that time. ofc there is the lannister exceptionalism deal w lannisters or whatever but as a result of the aerys situation (everything about it: those two years and the aftermath of it as well) jaime feels like the rest of society doesnt understand how things are and how he sees and feels about things and him as a whole. so in addition to the arrogance in “there are no men like me” there is kind of a layer about that bitter feeling of isolation too. and in terms of contradicting that, brandon isnt the only one he compares himself to. brandon aside, which i do think is more about just a wilder personality especially in juxtaposition to ned (and him wanting to get on cat’s nerves lol), jaime contradicting that pretty often as his arc goes on and being able to relate to and connect with and see himself in others in general is a pretty important aspect to developing as a human being and getting out of his stasis. “there are no men like me” just isnt really a fact. u can understand and be understood by others

Icon Dump - Sniper: Legacy
Hi guys, as promised, please find under the cut about 90 to 100 icons of Chad Michael Collins from Sniper: Ghost Shooter. All icons are simple plain 100x100 icons with no frills.
I’m loving all the CMC love and Alex Keller / Echo 3-1 love in the RP community, so if anyone needs icons, feel free to use them, just maybe throw me a like or a mention if anyone asks where you got them is all.
Also, there could be a slight chance that I’ve mixed up a few icons into wrong dumps. I mixed al my CMC icons into one folder for my RPing needs ... so I might get some wrong when separating them by movie.

Wonderfully Made
You are fearfully and wonderfully made. Never forget this. God shaped you and still is specifically designing you. Never let someone steal your identity through peer pressure. You belong to God. Stand out and be who He created you to be.
  Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They…

Icarus Part 13
Hello! I've cut my backlog literally in half with this move and while I hate seeing it that low (seven chapters I have waiting to be published) that is it's point after all.
After the nice meeting with Nancy, Robin brings the news to the boys who have a much different perspective on the issue.
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6 Part 7 Part 8 Part 9 Part 10 Part 11 Part 12
~
Robin was the last to arrive at Steve’s swanky apartment. Spence was on the grill frying up her tofu burger first so the meat wouldn’t touch hers. Simon and Shane were in a heated discussion about Brandon Sanderson and his contribution to the fantasy genre. Her best friend was coming out of the kitchen with all sorts of vegan options for her to chose from.
She went over and greeted him with a kiss on the cheek, taking a couple of the bowls from him so he could go back and get more.
Once everyone had gotten their food and settled in Robin told them about her meeting with Nancy and Chrissy.
“So she’s going to apologize to our Stevie?” Simon asked around a bite of his potato salad.
Robin nodded stabbing her salad with a fork. “That’s what she said. I’ll believe it when I see it, though.” She took a bite of her food.
“Yeah,” Steve agreed. “Though ti doesn’t surprise me she’s not with Jonathan anymore.”
Robin tilted her head with a frown. “What do you mean?”
He sighed and pushed his food away not feeling very hungry at the moment. “Both of us had been pretty vocal about the white picket fence and the two point five kids. I’ve changed my mind on that obviously,” he waved at all of them. “But Jonathan was always his mom and Will first, especially after Will’s kidnapping. He was never going to be ambitious in the way she wanted.”
“His little brother got kidnapped?” Shane asked in wide-eyed shock. “Holy shit.”
“Yeah, it was this whole thing,” Steve said, nodding and leaning back on his chair, propping his arm on the back. “But everyone knew that despite all his dreams of being a wild life photographer, he was always going to pick somewhere close to home.”
“So yeah,” Robin said rolling her eyes and cocking her head. “She said she as going to apologize, but I told her she had to that and a shit ton of grovelling before I would consider her to rep the band.”
Steve phone went off and he picked it up. He frowned at the number. He answered it with a confused, “Hello?”
“Steve? Steve Harrington?” the cool feminine voice asked.
“That’s me,” he replied sitting up in his seat. “How can I help you?”
“It’s Nancy Wheeler,” she said after a moment. “I got your number from the record label, I hope that’s okay.”
“Uh, yeah,” he said in surprise. “Yeah, that’s fine. Wow, the Nancy Wheeler. We were just talking about your meeting with Celeste earlier.”
“Oh,” Nancy said, “I was hoping to call after you had finished speaking with her about it. I can call later.”
Steve shook his head. “Nah, it’s fine. We were mostly done anyway. We were just having dinner.”
“Are you sure?” she pressed. “If you’re eating, I could call back later tonight or even at a convenient time tomorrow?”
Steve rolled his eyes and Shane covered his mouth to hide the bubble of laughter that sprang to his lips. “I said it was fine. How are you? I understand you’re a hot shot music agent now.”
He could almost feel her smile on the other end when she said, “Something like that.”
She cleared her throat. “I’m actually calling to see you wanted to meet me for lunch tomorrow, I wanted to catch up and well...really to apologize. We were both so young, but that was no reason to treat you the way I did.”
Steve pinched the bridge of his nose and put his elbow on the table to prop up the hand that was holding the phone. “You’re right, it wasn’t. But sure, I have a few days off, I could meet you for lunch tomorrow. What time and where?”
Nancy gave him the information and then rang off. Steve threw his phone on the table next to his plate and threw himself against the back of the chair in frustration.
“Well color me shocked,” Robin said with a raised eyebrow. “I didn’t think she would actually go for it. Chrissy and I were actually going to go through another list of agents to find one more suitable.”
Spence rubbed the bottom of his lip. “I’m not sure I like the idea of Steve going alone. Because she can say she apologized and that Steve was unreasonable and get us blacklisted for other agents.”
Steve felt an uneasy twist to his stomach at that. But not just that, he just didn’t trust her. He didn’t even know how he was talked into letting her into his life in the first place. She was all apologies now, but what about later? What about after she finds out Steve and Eddie are dating? Would that be a conflict of interest? What if she’s homophobic? What if she outs him before he has a chance to do it himself?
“Steve.”
He came to himself with a start. He looked around to see that everyone was looking at him in concern.
“Hey, hon,” Shane said, tilting his head down to look at Steve. “You doing alright? You don’t look so good.”
He didn’t see Robin but as he came further into himself he could feel the warmth of her hand as she rubbed circles around the pulse point on his wrist.
“There you are, dingus,” she said with a teasing lit to her tone. “You really had us worried for a minute. Where did you go?”
Steve let out a shuddering sigh and then another. “Sorry, I guess I just got caught in a spiral of bad thoughts.”
Robin’s other hand came up to squeeze his. “We don’t have to take her as our agent,” she murmured. “Hell don’t even have to go talk to her if you don’t want to. Or we can all go. Whatever makes you comfortable.”
“I don’t think she’s apologizing to Steve because she’s actually sorry,” Simon said with a sneer, “I think she’s doing it because she sees dollar signs. If she signs with us that is going to make her a shit ton of money and open her up to even bigger clients. Corroded Coffin was already established when they hired her but if we hit the stratosphere while she’s repping us she’ll be in a sweet spot to have the doors open for her.”
Robin stood up. “I guess what I’m hearing is that none of you trust her with Steve. She already knows who each of the band is, because she signed the NDA. But just say the word and I’ll walk away.”
Steve took a deep breath and let it out slow. “I want to hear her out. If she’s actually sincere. But you’re all right, I can’t go alone.”
“Take Robin,” Spence suggested. “She’ll expect you to bring your best friend.”
Shane shook his head. “I think he should take one of us. Maybe Simon, he’s the most ripped out of all of us. I want him protected.”
“I’m down,” Simon replied with a grin.
Robin shook her head, a sly grin on her face. “No, no. Take Eddie.”
“What the fuck?” Simon said rearing his head back, offended. “Why him and not me?”
She put her hands on her hips. “Because he encompasses everything we need. A good friend, who won’t let her walk all over him, like me. An imposing guy like Simon. He might not look like much out of the leathers, but in them and he looks like he could snap you in two. Also, he’s worked with her for a number of years and would be a better judge of if she’s being genuine.”
Spence and Shane shared a glance.
“Sorry, darling,” Shane said with a shrug, “I’m gonna have to go with Robbie on this one. Plus, she’s going to have to know about their relationship anyway.”
Spence chewed on his bottom lip fitfully.
“What’s on your mind, Spence?” Steve asked. “I smell your hair burning from here!”
Spence snorted, “Oh fuck off!” But a giggle escaped anyway.
“You got a problem with Eddie?” Robin asked tilting her head to the side as she regarded their drummer.
Spence waved his hands in front of him. “Oh hell no! It’s not about Eddie, it’s not really about Steve going to meet Nancy.”
Simon frowned and put an arm around him. “What’s going on then?”
“Steve is being too nice about this whole thing,” he murmured. “She didn’t just cheat. She didn’t just string him along. She knew going into the relationship what Steve wanted. Yeah, it’s bit unrealistic to imagine marrying your high school sweetheart. But there is a reason it’s so prevalent in all our media. Because it can happen, because it has happened before. And then her excuse was that Steve wasn’t ambitious enough? Why?”
Steve furrowed his brow as he thought about it. That was an unusual dig. He was a senior in high school, how much more ambitious did she want.
Robin shrugged and said to fill the silence, “I’m not sure because I didn’t become friends with Steve until after the whole mess, but my guess is that he wanted to take what the Europeans call a gap year. A year to just be a kid before jumping into college.”
“Something my parents weren’t fond of either, if I’m honest,” Steve scoffed.
Shane waved his hand toward Steve to indicate that was most likely the cause. “And there it is. It’s so insane everyone expecting to kids to go right into school without taking the time to figure out what you want to do with your life. Hell, you have to apply in January. That’s half way through your senior year. You’re supposed to know what you want in life before you even finish high school? That’s fucked up on all levels.” Through the whole rant, he gestured wildly with his hands.
“I didn’t get to into college my first try,” she said, “Because my parents made too much for me to get assistance but not enough for them to pay for it themselves. And then I met you guys and the rest is history.”
There were nods all around.
“It is up to Stevie to forgive her,” Simon said with a grimace. “But some part of me doesn’t want him to.”
Steve straightened up in his chair. “Why not?” He cocked his head to side, looking like a confused puppy dog.
Simon huffed out a sigh and squirmed in his chair, looking down at his food. He poked at the top of his hamburger bun, picking at the sesame seeds.
“You shouldn’t have to sacrifice your ego for us to get a good agent.”
The silence that followed filled the air with a thick sinking feeling.
Steve straightened his spine. “I’m not the weak-willed, touch-starved kid she remembers. I have three of the best mates a guy could ask for, a platonic soulmate, and a boyfriend that loves me for me. If she thinks she can swan into my life and walk all over me like she did before, she has another think coming. I’ll meet up with her and take Eddie. But make it absolutely clear, I have everyone’s backing on this. If I walk away, we all walk away.”
There was still some grumbling, but it was ultimately it was up to Steve. He made the necessary calls and then they settled down to finish their dinner.
Slowly the mood improved as the night went on, but it never did reach the heights of a laid back night with friends.

Hello!! I was wondering if you have any book recommendations for Appalachian folk magic? Especially for a beginner, I’m familiar with our local “old wive’s tales” but I’d love to learn more!!
Hello there! I have answered this question before but I have some new resources so I'll list them here!
It really depends on which part of Appalachia you are looking at! And if you want to dig deeper the ancestral roots of the family you are looking at. For example my family has a lot of Welsh and British influence because that was our family source so a lot of those beliefs lingered and changed throughout the years!
Someone from Pennsylvania would likely have a lot more German roots for their practice. But despite the root differences for the folklore these practices stem from they do still share a lot of connecting points!
But having babbled all of that here are my favorite books on AFM specifically. (Mind you Christianity takes a super huge part in the practice so a lot of bible and doing things in threes for the Trinity is involved!)
Authors to check out:
H. Byron Ballard- A pagan who also practices AFM, from the NC side of Appalachia, a lot of people hate her writing style which is a bit ramble-y. I also dislike the term she uses for her own practice but that is a super simple and small complaint honestly. I own all of her books on the subject, which should say something.
A NOTE ON H. BYRON BALLARD: I no longer support her work after discovering she is a TERF. I will no longer be suggesting her as an author to follow.
Jake Richards - From Eastern TN like me! A lot of what he talks about are things I have seen before, and he breaks down complex concepts like burn blowing into something relatively easily understood. HOWEVER HAVING SAID THAT the author is partially Melungeon, so he does have some Hoodoo mixed in from his grandmother's side iirc? He does label these things in his works and explains that they are not for everyone which I do appreciate.
Rebecca Beyer - While vaguely Wiccan toned, which I attribute to her publishers/raising, she's a transplant to Appalachia and if you're looking for herbal information on Appalachia and to wax poetic about how even with a ton of people settling there SO MUCH of the natural herbs and plantlife still survive, read her work! Her work on foraging safely and environmentally is so SOOOOO good.
Brandon Weston - For Ozark Mountain range/German/Dutch Appalachian work! He has written quite a few books on the subject and all of them are a treat!
Roger J. Horne - For how to dig into folklore and apply it to your own practice! This author is pagan and does blend in some traditional work with the Appalachian but I do enjoy his work and how he applies folklore. This author is also FROM Appalachia which is nice to see.
INDIVIDUAL BOOKS TO READ:
Appalachian Folk Healing by Jake Richards - A republication of a very old book on remedies and 'spells', while kitschy and stupidly worded, after all it was a popular book created just for sales reasons, some of these remedies are things I remember having done to me! Good for both a giggle and actual information. TW for mentions of animal parts, hunting, illnesses, the G slur, period specific phobias and racism.
Albertus Magnus - These books all supposedly written by an ancient guy, were actually mildly common on traveling salesmen's trucks and wagons. So as a result a lot of people in Appalachia had access. Like the book above it is very stupidly worded and definitely of their time. Same TW as above.
Pow-Wows or Long Lost Friend - Another Pennsylvania Dutch book! Very good and very clear.
Southern Folk Medicine - A book that breaks down a lot of common medicinal beliefs in the South which does include Appalachia! Sadly not just Appalachia but a very good book regardless. THIS BOOK MADE ME UNDERSTAND THE THEORY BEHIND BLOOD ISSUES MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE EVER HAS.
Moon Eyed People - A collection of Welsh folktales that brewed within Appalachia from Welsh immigrants. Very good book imo!
Granny Buck's Dibs and Dabs - This book is so worth the price tag! One of the more expensive books in my collection, but I'm fine with that. Granny Buck covers a lot of topics and I can feel the accent through the wording!
Signs, Cures, & Witchery - More German Appalachian stuff! This book and it's interviewees are from the Kentucky side of the mountains!
Witches, Ghost, and Signs - This book is based more in the Southern Appalachian area! Georgia, SC, NC, and TN specifically! Lots of folklore here, but does mention some not so great bits of the lore, but that is expected.
The Foxfire Books - What began as a school project exploded into a collection of true to life stories and idioms from Georgia elders within the mountains. SO SO GOOD OKAY? For everything. How to plant, hunt, make musical instruments, anything from the mountains? They cover.

Not really defending Brandon but like. In terms of “being edgy” at least he fucking COMMITS. I remember he’d straight up just label his videos “title (warning: OFFENSIVE)”
Viv does this weird thing where it seems like she wants to be edgy, but her need to have everyone like her and her show no matter what keeps her from actually writing more risky jokes and material, and so all we are fuckwords and sexcapades.
Exactly. It's the same as when people whine about South Park and Family Guy and how nobody complains when they make edgy jokes...it's because they're not also trying to brand themselves as safe, healthy, and hyper progressive. Their voice actors aren't out there saying that parents should absolutely watch this with their kids so they can learn about LGBT+ issues.
Viv wants to be Sausage Party and Steven Universe at the same time and you can't do that.

To the people who CONSTANTLY keep saying that Stolitz is bad, Stolitz is fan service, Stolitz is for the yaoi fangirls, Stolitz is this, Stolitz is that....
You do realize that the team has to write the scriptS plural FIRST, have the voice actors record their lines NEXT, and THEN the storyboard artists and the rough/clean up-animators and special effects artists get to do their part of the project with all the information and the material that they have, right, RIGHT?
And besides, Vivienne, Brandon, and Adam have to come to a SOLID AGREEMENT before anything actually gets recorded, or drawn, or animated.
So Stolitz is NOT happening because of creepy fangirls wanting to see two cute guys be together. Its just that FINALLY a fandom got a potential gay relationship becoming an actual loving couple within their series, and the "antis" and "haters" and "critics" are pissed off that their relationship is not being handled in a pure and squeaky clean manner,
or maybe it's because both are canonically male characters... (Blitz talks about his penis regularly, and Stolas was forced to get a woman pregnant and have a child. So yeah both are cis-male characters.) ...and that makes them icky gays, who fuck up their situations on the regular, and THE PEOPLE WHO HATE IT JUST CAN'T HAVE THAT, NO NO NO, the gays have to be perfect little cliches and stereotypes with little or no conflict or trauma, or serious problems in their lives because that makes GAY PEOPLE A LITTLE TOO REAL FOR THEM, A LITTLE TOO HUMAN FOR THEM IF YOU WILL.
So, yeah screw the "antis", "critics", and "haters" and all silly names that these people were labeled, I'm pro-stolitz coming together and working their shit out and becoming a loving couple and blending their family. 💕🖕🖕🖕🖕🦉🦎

Helluva Boss observations and easter eggs you may not have noticed!: Pilot
The pilot is both a great place and weird place to start, as it is our introduction to the cast and world, but also no longer considered canon. Many of the events and details we learn/see are later confirmed in the series itself, but there were quite a few changes.
I want to start off with some design changes!
Tumblr media
With Millie, she used to have white roots visible, this actually kept up for a few of the early episodes. As we know now it seems imps have two noticeable instances of sexual dimorphism: females have black horns with thin white stripes and naturally black hair, and males have evenly sized black and white stripes on their horns and naturally black hair. We see many trans or otherly gender queer imps that dye their hair with visible roots. I assume Millie's design was changed when that was established to be a gender difference in imps.
Her heart tattoo is also much smaller, and switches sides (an animation error almost certainly) When the pilot first came out I actually thought she had a heart on both shoulders.
Some stuff with Stolas!
Tumblr media
We see his hand outlined with a red glow at one point, presumably representing his magic. While in the series his magic is represented by blue. This is most likely due to the change of his character as he was originally planned to be a villain.
Not a design change, but I find it funny that Stolas' name in Blitzø's phone is "Creepy Mouth (aka one night stand bird dick)". Surprisingly all being spelled correctly.
Tumblr media
Stolas' Grimore! I actually only noticed this on this last watch. It was a darker blue(purple? red? It changes in different scenes) and instead of the moon design it has a different insignia of his that we still see throughout the series in various places (notably on his bed) it also has no design on the back.
Little details!
Tumblr media
I didn't realize before either that the woman who Moxxie is trying to shoot before Eddie gets in the way, is Eddie's mom. I'm sure this is something many others picked up on immediately though.
Tumblr media
Speaking of which, the human news anchor shown at the end bares a striking resemblance to a character of Brandons: a news anchor named Flint Dicker.
Tumblr media
A poster of "THE AMAZING IMP SIBLINGS" is on the wall of the conference room. Showing Blitzø, Barbie Wire, and another character labeled "Tilla". This was changed in the series to just being Blitzø and Barbie, Tilla's design being slightly altered and then used for their mom.
Hazbin easter eggs! Oh boy is there a lot of them.
Tumblr media
In the commercial sequence we see in the room of one of the targets a framed drawing of Sir Pentious
In the background of when Blitzø is interviewing a previous client, there is a billboard for 666 News ft. A photo of Katie Killjoy, I especially love this one as Brandon ended up voicing her!
In Blitzø's office he had a vision board labeled "BOSS GOALS" with 5 drawings, in the center is Blitzø labeled "ME!" Top left we have Katie again, top right is a duck with a top hat and two $'s, this assumably referencing Lucifer, bottom left is Rosie, an arrow pointing to her hat labeled so eloquently "HAT" and lastly in the bottom right there is a more detailed drawing that looks to be Carmilla Carmine labeled "Moxxie drew not as good" this tracking later as in 1.05 "The Harvest Moon Festival" Moxxie talks about Carmine angelic weaponry, showing a great interest in her business.
Next is a dumpster in an alley with various graffiti. Notably, a face that looks to be Nifty, "ALWAYS CHASING RAINBOWS" and "HAPPY HOTEL". There is also a sinister face labeled "DEVIL". Im not sure if this is a specific refrence to anything though.
Lastly, one that I'm sure almost everyone noticed but feel the need to include, is we can see Loona watching Charlie's performance of "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow"
Funny observations:
Tumblr media
When the crew teleports into the church, we see maany people with some pretty detailed designs, I do not know if or what they may be referencing, but I have a strong suspicion it is something, my guess is that they are caricatures of some people who worked on the pilot. One person in specifically is wearing a jacket with a patch reading "WHEN YOU SEE IT" with a 👌
Tumblr media
Signs! In the hospital we see a sign saying "WE SAVE LIVES" in faded text it reads between we and save "try to" and after lives another line is visible starting with "but" I cannot make out the rest.
Others show that they are in ward 13, the next room over labeled as 667, implying the room that Eddie was in is 666
A note is taped to the side of the fridge of the break room reading "LOONA DONT EAT MY LUNCH -MOXXIE"
Tumblr media
Another thing I only noticed recently is when Blitzø sneaks out at the Goetia palace, he is naked except for his jacket, with the grimore serving as some creative censorship. (+Stella's beta design. I personally love her current design, but this one wasn't bad)
Tumblr media
When Blitzø makes the comment about making Moxxie the employee of the month he holds up a small plaque as an example, a larger version of this same plaque, is visible on a wall in the commercial sequence.
While in their hazmat suits(idk if that's what these actually are), you can see the shape of Moxxie's bowtie under it
... and just Blitzø holding some targets panties, cause why not
There are a handful of other details, but I'm going to hold onto those as later on we see call backs to them. Also, I've spent a lot more on this than Id planned already, I have at least 3 hours on this one alone.
Please bare with me, I promise these will get more interesting the further we go in the series!

GUYS I HAD THE MOST SADDEST FREAKING DREAM 2 NIGHTS AGO
Be prepared for whatever summery of my dream is
I have no idea how this happened
⚠️ death, su!c!de ⚠️
plz don't hate me for this I just wanted to share...
.

Okay so Darius our beloved boy he.....well he k!lled himself and Brooklynn along with Kenji find him and Kenji is giving him CPR until the ambulance arrives and presumes he's dead and Brooklyn and Kenji start sobbing and the paramedics take him away and there are cops like asking if there was a note left behind to make sure it was on purpose and they didn't find anything and they were like maybe he had it on him and so the cop radio the paramedics and I was like check if there's any like note or something and then they like look inside his jacket and tape to like the inside where his back is really multiple letters for everyone and each one has a name on them and so the paramedics said that they'll meet them at the wherever they go to drop off the dead bodies and give them the letters so Brooklyn and Kenji come get theirs and they read theirs and they just start sobbing and then they go to the Bowman's house and they tell Brandon and mom who someone gave her the name Simone and I really like that. They tell them and they give them the letters and then the next day they tell the camp fam hey come meet in Colorado we have something to tell you so the next day they all meet up and wondering what's going on and they're just like we're going to give you the letters first but be freaking prepared and of course they start crying also I forgot Kenji has darius's phone and in Ben's letter it's Darius tells him something to like take his phone and enter the passcode and then there are two videos one specifically for Ben and then one for everyone and Ben watches the one specifically for him and of course he's more like them those depressed out of everyone and I'm just like why.
And so like maybe 2 weeks later everyone is preparing to clean out darius's cabin his family's there the campfam's there and Ben's kind of acting secretive
And brand finds these huge well not huge but big boxes just full of stuff and it's labeled Ben stuff and they're like at least five to ten boxes then brand comes down with like one box he's like dude why do you have so much stuff in his cabin and he just like goes oh we had some sleepovers whenever I visited from college and brand goes you don't need 5 to 10 boxes just for a visit and so and just starts being his little paranoid self and goes you know also Kenji and Brooklyn and Simone they are in like upstairs area so it's just brand Sammy yas and Ben. Yas comes up to Ben and says what's wrong we won't judge or anything and he's like it's not that easy to tell you and so he whips out darius's phone and then goes to the video made for him and plays a specific part and turns out they we're secretly engaged!! so like big plot twist even I wasn't expecting that I actually woke up and was like what the heck
So that happened and he didn't want to tell anyone but mostly Darius didn't want to tell anyone they just wanted to keep it secret for themselves and so he doesn't know how he's going to tell darius's mom and Kenji and Brandon's just like wait a minute my brother was engaged and he didn't tell me this how could he we always used to gossip and then it like skips to the funeral where it's playing darius's video to everyone and everyone is just like full on crying
And while they're they're walking up to the casket Ben has one hand in his pocket and in that hand he's holding the ring that he gave to Darius and it's just like so sad I don't know why my brain decide to do that dream but I was just like devastated
But this dream also made me think that should I make a fic of this? Idk
Also why did I dream this
I had another weird dream....and it way more weird than this one
