@steddie-spooktober day 3: apples | rated: G | wc: 998
“Wow, he’s really good at that.” Robin remarks as Eddie sloshes back up out of the bucket with yet another apple caught in his grin, “Who'da thunk, huh?”
“Yeah…” Steve breathes, watching Eddie’s hair drip down over his forehead and down his neck, “He’s really good with his mouth.”
Robin chokes on her most recent swig of cider, “I’m sorry, what?!”
“Uh…” Steve feels his face turn hot, “Huh? I didn’t say anything.” He moves to turn away back into the Hoppers’ cabin, an excuse of the bathroom or a new mug of cider ready behind his teeth and Robin on his heels
“Oh no you don’t; you explain yourself this instant Steven Marie Harrington!” She demands, voice much louder than he’d like it to be, “What did you just say about Eddie Munson’s mouth??”
“Nothing that anyone—especially the Eddie in question—needs to hear! Quiet down!” He whispers in a harried tone.
He pulls her into Hopper’s tiny bathroom, snapping the door shut behind him.
“You have a crush on Eddie Munson?! Our Eddie Munson?”
Steve leans back against the door and sighs, letting himself sink to the floor. “Still too loud.” he says, not actually meaning it.
She must’ve been able to tell that he’s trying to stall, so she sinks onto the shallow edge of the tub to wait. One of her knees knocks against the bowl of the toilet, the other against the wall.
“I think I have for a little while now. Since spring break at least.” he confesses, now that he’s in the proper position to do so, here on the bathroom floor.
“You found time to get your first crush on a guy since figuring out you’re bi, and it’s during yet another upside-down related catastrophe.” Robin states rather than asks. “You’re something else, Dingus.”
“Gee, thanks for your support.”
“You have it always, obviously,” she waves him off, “Just surprised that the first I’m hearing about it is when your horny lizard brain tells me for you.”
“It’s been getting really annoying lately.”
“What, having a big gay crush on someone? I feel you.”
“No, lizard brain is being really annoying lately. But yeah, also that.”
Steve’s gaze is stuck on the slightly mis-matched piece of linoleum between his feet, but sees Robin nod her head in his periphery.
Neither say anything for a solid 45 seconds, until: “So what are you going to do about it?”
“Something… eventually… maybe…” he hedges, “Just ‘cause he’s into guys too doesn’t mean he’s into me.”
“Oh yeah, of course he isn’t.”
He rolls his eyes at the sarcasm. “I’m being serious Robin.”
“Me too.”
Steve finally looks up at her.
“Don’t give me that look, I’m being serious about my sarcasm, Steven. Of course Eddie’s into you; you saw how he was flirting with you during the whole Vecna fiasco!” Robin flails her arm around in emphasis, “How he’s been flirting with you ever since.”
“What if that’s not just for me though, he’s annoyingly charming to everyone!”
“He may be charming,” She grimaces (“Hey!”), “But that doesn’t mean he’s out here flirting with anyone!”
“He just feels comfortable with me.”
“Everyone our age knows about Eddie, Steve, and he’s still been his same dorky self with all them. You’re the only one he’s been flirting with nonstop.”
Steve opens his mouth to respond, but closes it again.
Damn, she’s got a point.
Eddie never calls Jonathan ‘sweetheart’, or Argyle ‘big boy’... he’s heard him say once that Hopper was his first crush when he’d had one too many drinks, but she’s right.. Eddie’s only flirty with him.
Steve suddenly feels all swoopy inside. And it must show on his face somehow, because Robin says “Ew gross, you’re thinking about him aren’t you?”
“No, I’m thinking about Hopper– of course I’m thinking about him!” Steve grins, then pushes him up off the floor. “Okay, okay, I just have to make it through the rest of the day, and I’ll ask him out tomorrow when he comes in to bother us for a free rental at work.”
He looks down at Robin, searching her face for any sign that it isn’t a good plan.
She nods, “Good. Now where are you going to take him?”
The answer to that one was simple, “Movie date at my place.”
Robin snorts, “A bit presumptuous, eh Stevie?”
The floaty feeling in his gut turns into a boulder, “I mean— That’s not what— Obviously I’d love it to—” he cuts himself off for the last time at the smirk on her face. “Oh fuck you.” He shakes his head in fond exasperation as he turns, heading back out of the bathroom.
Robin’s teasing him still when the back door opens and Eddie waltzes in, the round, decorative basket Joyce had been using to put all the apples people fished out of the barrel in his arms and a(nother? The same?) apple lodged in his teeth.
He spots them and puts the basket down on the island, spinning dramatically to lean onto the tabletop to face them.
His hand comes up to grab onto the apple, snapping off a bite and sucking away the juice as he takes it away from his mouth, “Hey Stevie, Birdie,” he says over a mouthful of crunching fruit.
Steve blinks once, then turns to Robin, “I’m not going to survive 'till tomorrow.”
Before she or Eddie can react, Steve is striding across the room and pulling his sodden friend to him in a tart, apple-flavored kiss.
Robin says something about being lookout, but Steve’s too busy feeling Eddie’s mouth on his.
Until Eddie pulls back that is.
“Shit– Eddie, I’m so sorry, I—” Steve stops when Eddie’s finger comes up between them.
Eddie chews once, twice, a third, then swallows down the rest of his bite.
Ah.
“Okay,” Eddie breathes once his mouth is clear. “Now, where were we?” He tosses the apple over his shoulder and descends upon Steve once again.

I want to know how my wives would spend their perfect valentines💘
Valentina is the traditional date, you'd have to take her out to dinner even though you can't eat anything (be ready to buy some really expensive wine), then get a nice hotel or cottage for the evening (or perhaps the weekend...) where you will be expected to sprinkle rose petals on the bed and in her bath. it would be the epitome of romance 🥀
Hana would want to do something more proactive... something kinda unconventional. an escape room, a pottery class, or maybe wine tasting together, or even just going out dancing. she'd want to do some kind of activity first, and then just have a nice cozy night in afterwards, just the two of you. she'd want to end the evening taking a bath or shower together, something really intimate 👯♀️
Clear takes you camping to some niche spot where you can stargaze and go on a night hike together. she'd prefer a tent but would get a cabin to make sure you won't burn in the sun (so romantic... lmfao). it would be a nice break away from the city and all the vampire madness, with lots of cuddling through the night 💞
all of them together would be some amalgamation of all three. perhaps "camping" in a massive rental cottage with a hot tub (crucial for Valentina) and a giant deck where you can all sit together and enjoy the view. everyone tries really hard to cook something fancy for Clear, 50/50 chance of it turning out edible but what's important is that it was made with love 🖤

Kinktober Day 1 - First Time
Read here on AO3 Rating: Explicit Ships: Castiel/Dean Winchester Tags: Plot What Plot/Porn Without Plot, Porn, Smut, Castiel/Dean Winchester First Time Having Sex, First Time, Anal Fingering, Grinding, Dirty Talk, Kinktober, Anal Sex, Human Castiel (Supernatural), Post-Finale, Post-Season/Series Finale
Dean’s hands are clammy. He knew this was the endgame of the night, obviously, and he’s been looking forward to it for like a week now, but it’s surreal. He’s actually nervous. He can’t remember the last time he was nervous for sex. Then again, he also can’t remember the last time he had sex with someone he genuinely cared about.
“Are you alright, Dean?” Castiel’s hand settles on his thigh. Fuck, even the sound of his voice is like a balm to Dean’s overactive mind. It brings a small smile to his lips and, before he can rethink it, he lifts Cas’s hand to his mouth and presses a kiss to his knuckles.
“I’m great. Better than great, actually. Can’t remember ever being this happy.”
Cas practically beams at that, and Dean can feel his heart beating faster. It’s hard to focus on driving when he feels like he could die from happiness, but he somehow manages to get them back to the little rental they booked for the weekend in one piece.
They deserve this. Hell, they deserve way more than this, but this is a start. The cabin is cute enough, with a hot tub on the back porch and a four-poster, king-size bed. They’d gotten here last night, but after a day spent in the car, they were both too exhausted to do much more than dump their bags on the floor and collapse into bed. Cas had woken up with some unfairly hot bedhead, but Dean had a plan for this weekend, and he wasn’t about to let it be ruined by some messy hair.
He releases Cas’s hand only long enough for them to both climb out of the car, quickly sliding his fingers between the former angel’s as they make their way up the porch. He revels in the tiny smile it brings to Cas’s lips.
“How are we doing on the whole “human for the second time around” thing? So far, at least.”
Castiel chuckles. “Well, I haven’t been murdered by a reaper yet.”
Dean huffs a laugh and punches the code into the lock on the door. “Yeah, I guess the bar was already pretty low.”
Castiel hums softly as Dean turns to close the door behind them, locking it and sucking in a deep breath. It doesn’t do much to calm his nerves.
“Are you alright?” Castiel asks softly, resting a hand on Dean’s shoulder. “We don’t have to do this if you don’t… want to.”
Dean scoffs. “No, I want to, Cas. I promise.” He takes another deep breath before turning to face Castiel. His eyebrows are pinched like he’s nervous Dean might reject him. He wonders how often Castiel worries about that. “You sure you want to?”
Castiel raises an eyebrow. “Am I sure that I want to finally have you underneath me after being in love with you for more years than I care to admit? Yes, I think so.”
Dean can feel the tips of his ears burning, so he doesn’t even want to imagine what his face looks like. “In love with, huh?” he asks, a stupid grin on his face.
Castiel rolls his eyes, but he smiles back as he leans in to draw Dean into a kiss. “Yes, Dean, I’m positive. Now are you going to stop stalling and come with me to the bedroom, or should I get started without you?”
Dean gapes at him. “Start without me? Now hang on a minute…”
Castiel shoots him a grin as he backs down the hallway toward the bedroom. Little fucker. He knows exactly how to push Dean’s buttons. It’s stupidly hot.
They both shed their layers on the way to the bedroom until they’re left barefoot, in their t-shirts and jeans. Dean pulls him into a kiss, winding his arms around Cas’s waist. They’ve done plenty of this since Castiel came back from the empty, blessedly alive and fully human. It had been an awkward few moments, considering Dean had shoved him against the nearest wall and made up for the decade they could have spent kissing if they hadn’t been such idiots. Sam had uncomfortably cleared his throat more than a few times, and god only knows what Jack was thinking, but Dean couldn’t find it in himself to care. He had his angel back, that was all that mattered.
He only pulls away long enough to tug Castiel’s shirt over his head, dropping it somewhere behind them and nudging Cas to sit on the bed. He shamelessly climbs onto his lap, threading a hand through his hair as he kisses and sucks his way down the former angel’s neck. Castiel’s hands are everywhere, roaming over every inch of Dean’s skin that he can reach. They finally settle on Dean’s thighs, holding him close as Cas draws him into another kiss. This one is filthy, all tongue, Castiel’s teeth scraping against Dean’s bottom lip. It drives Dean just a little bit insane, and it seems like Cas can tell since he does it again with a hint of a smirk on his lips.
“Do you like that, Dean?” he murmurs, his voice distractingly deep and warm, rumbling against Dean’s chest as he laughs. “I’ve dreamed about this for so long. Watching you let go for me.”
Dean shivers, blinking a few times to regain some semblance of composure as he lets Castiel remove his shirt. He doesn’t even care where Castiel drops it, he’ll worry about finding it in the morning. It’s the least of his concerns right now, especially once he leans back long enough to take in the sight in front of him—Castiel, shirtless, chest heaving with a sheen of sweat and a smirk on his lips as he lets Dean drink in his fill.
“God, Cas,” he mutters, dragging a thumb over one of his nipples, noting the sharp intake of breath he gets in response. “You’re incredible.”
Castiel chuckles, the sound like a warm, fluffy blanket wrapping around Dean. “I could say the same about you, you know. You’re beautiful, Dean, and despite how much I’d love to sit here and stare at you—”
“So a normal night for you,” Dean interrupts with a smirk, laughing when Castiel rolls his eyes.
“As much as I’d love it, I’d much prefer to see how you feel around my cock.”
Dean swallows, tongue darting out to lick his lips. “Wow, that was… way hotter than it should have been.”
Castiel laughs. “Is that a yes?”
Dean nods quickly, sliding off Castiel’s lap long enough to ditch his jeans and boxers. Castiel does the same, so when Dean climbs back into his lap they’re both blessedly naked. He lets himself bask in the moment, pulling Castiel into a kiss as he rocks his ass along the length of Castiel’s hardness, sucking in a shuddering breath. It’s been a damn long time since he’s had anything other than a toy inside him and as much as he’d like to rush the process, he doesn’t want Castiel’s first time with him to be anything less than perfect. So he takes his time, getting them both wound so tightly they could snap before he even reaches for the bottle of lube he’d brought with them and, thankfully, stashed in the bedside table earlier.
Castiel snatches it from him with a wicked grin. “I’ve dreamt about this, too. May I?”
Dean swallows, nodding quickly. “Yeah, Cas, yeah, my god.” He shuffles off his lap, sprawling out on the bed and pulling Castiel on top of him. “Never wanted anything more in my life.”
Castiel pouts. Honest to god pouts. Dean feels like he could combust. “Not even me?”
“Fuck, you’re gonna be the death of me,” he breathes out, mostly to himself, tugging Castiel down into a kiss. “C’mon, want you inside me sooner than later.”
Castiel smirks. “Say please.”
Dean groans. “Please, Cas.”
He half expects a good boy thrown in there, but he doesn’t get one. Instead, he gets the click of the lube cap, so he leans up on his elbows to watch Castiel.
He’s gorgeous. His hair is a goddamn mess, his chest flushed a nice, warm red, and his eyes—they’ve got a wild look to them, but they’re so utterly focused on Dean that it makes his heart beat a little faster.
“Alright. You’re ready?”
He doesn’t think he has the strength to speak right now, so he just nods. Castiel shoots him a small smile and leans down to kiss him. He’s a fucking master with his tongue, so much so that Dean barely even registers his finger pushing into him. He groans against Castiel’s lips, letting his knees drop open even more, hopefully encouraging him to continue. Castiel seems to get the message, his tongue sliding into Dean’s mouth as a second finger splits him open. He’s effectively trapped between the sensations of Castiel’s tongue and fingers and there’s no place on Earth that he’d rather be.
Castiel breaks their kiss, and Dean just barely has the presence of mind to bite back a whine. “I’m not hurting you, am I?” Castiel asks softly, pressing a kiss to Dean’s jaw.
Dean shakes his head quickly, sucking in a breath and pulling Cas’s mouth back to his. “Mm mm. Feels good, Cas. Can’t wait to have you inside me. C’mon, I can handle another.”
He feels Castiel shiver against him and grins, grinding against his fingers. It takes a minute, but eventually, Cas shakes himself from his stupor and presses a third finger into him. It burns, but Dean is wound so tight that he doesn’t even care. He wants Castiel inside him as quickly as possible, and honestly, even the burn feels a little bit good.
Still, he gets impatient after a few minutes, the burn faded and the thought of Cas splitting him open much more enticing than his fingers. “Ready, Cas, quit teasing,” he manages to get out, eyes fluttering closed when his fingers rub against his prostate, sending a warm jolt through him. “Fuck, please, want you inside me when I come,” he babbles, mostly lost to the sensation of Castiel’s fingers stretching him open and his mouth exploring every inch of Dean’s hot, flushed skin. Castiel seems to gather how far gone he is because after a moment his fingers are gone, quickly replaced with the blunt head of his slippery cock.
“Tell me if I hurt you?” Castiel asks softly, brushing his fingers through Dean’s hair. Dean nods quickly, wrapping his legs around Cas’s waist. “Promise, now get in me.”
Castiel laughs, drawing Dean into a kiss as he pushes into him. Dean grunts, fingernails digging into Castiel’s shoulders. It burns, but he’s so damn close to coming that he doesn’t even care. He takes another breath, easing the burn a bit, and pulls Cas into another kiss. God, he could do this all day. Honestly, if they didn’t have other things to do, he just might. He adds that to the list of things he wants to try with Cas at some point, making a mental note to actually write that list down and give it to Cas sometime.
“Okay?” Castiel asks softly, kissing down Dean’s neck.
“Mmhm, fuck… so good, Cas,” he manages to reply, somewhat breathless as he finally bottoms out. “Can’t fuckin’ believe we could’ve been doing this all along,” he mutters, somewhat petulantly. Castiel laughs.
“Yes, well, hindsight is twenty-twenty, as they say. But we get to do it now.”
Dean hums, grinding against Castiel just a little bit. “Damn right we do. Several times tonight, at least, if I get my way,” he says with a smirk, though it quickly turns to a gasp when Castiel pumps his hips a little.
“It would be my absolute honor to take you apart all night long, Dean,” Castiel purrs, fucking purrs, and Dean thinks he could die of happiness right here. Wouldn’t be a bad way to go, given all the ways he thought he’d die.
“Too much talking, not enough fucking,” he gasps out instead, shivering when Castiel laughs. He expects some witty remark in return, but instead, Castiel just sits up and grabs Dean’s hips, pulling him into every thrust as he finds his rhythm. It’s punishing, and Dean’s almost certain he’s forgotten how to breathe, simply with the sight of Cas above him like his, hair a mess and a dark burn in his eyes.
“I want to hear you when you come for me, Dean. I want to hear every moan, every stutter in your breath, every curse. I want it.”
Dean gasps, eyes fluttering closed as Castiel’s words sink in. He considers being a brat for a moment, but only a moment, before he realizes he’d much rather give Castiel what he wants.
It doesn’t take long before he’s teetering on the edge of an orgasm, his grunts and muttered curses only seeming to spur Cas on. If he didn’t know any better, he’d think the man still had the stamina of an angel, with how relentless his thrusts have been.
“C-Cas, fuck, I can’t… I’m gonna…” he manages to choke out, eyes squeezing shut as Castiel’s warm hand wraps around his cock. It only takes a few rough strokes before he’s completely gone, boneless as he comes over his own stomach. Castiel’s not far behind though, his hips slamming into Dean’s a few more times before he spills white hot inside Dean, his shaky breaths the only thing still grounding Dean to this reality.
They stay like that for a couple of minutes, catching their breath and blinking hazily at each other. Dean cracks first, a lazy grin on his lips as he pulls Castiel into a kiss.
“We really should have been doing that for the last decade.”
Castiel laughs and, yeah, that really is the best sound in the world.

Creep (2014) + Creep 2 (2017)
basic info: both movies are an original creation form the Duplass brothers - including directing, story, as well as character writing (the plot is believed to have been was alternated multiple times whilst making of the film, therefore various takes on different scenes have been created, although not necessarily used in the final cut). they've been recorded in found footage convention (produced by Jason Blum; ever heard of Paranormal Activity?), mostly being rather fragmentary (as the only source of the viewer's cognition is the picture recorded on a portable camera). it could be also described as a psychological horror or a thriller - preferably for the reason of an overall sense of tension or uncanniness, caused by some acts performed by the odd protagonist in both cases.
overall ratings: imdb: 6,3/10 + 6,4/10 rotten tomatoes: 91% + 100% letterboxd: 3.3/5 + 3.3/5
plot summary: plots of both movies are quite similar in opposition to each other - they feature a thorough, motion-picture documentation of the turnabouts of unusual confrontations between a cameraperson and a seemingly harmless, although pathologically deceitful man (who later on is revealed to be a serial killer with no criminal record registered). in Creep, the individual brought into remote premises of a rental wooden cabin is Aaron - tempted by an offer of a financial opportunity, which includes helping a cancer-infected, an overly affectionate man make a short film about himself, for the reason of it being shown to his still unborn baby in case he dies sometime before that. they engage into lighthearted activities, some of them particularly intimate (like Josef taking a tubby with an imaginary Buddy - his alleged baby - and descending into a depressive spiral right after, later turning trying to drown himself in the bath into a bad joke) - Aaron doing his job behind the camera and Josef gradually losing control over his beforehand scripted craft. after leaving the cabin and cutting ties with the strange man, Aaron begins receiving unnerving cds along with generous gifts - a video showing Josef burying brimful trash bags (perhaps a warning, because he didn't manage to kill him back then?) or a baby wolf plushie stuffed with a necklace with their cut-out photos inside. upon finally and ultimately meeting with Josef, Aaron - deceived by his naivety - is killed by the other man, him all dressed in the beloved Peachfuzz mask and by smashing his prey's brains with an axe.
the events of Creep 2 take a kindred turn, excluding the ending alone. this time a woman - Sara - decides to familiarize herself with the origins of a self-proclaimed and burned out serial killer's motifs for murder, for the sake of gaining minimal popularity for her internet show called Encounters (where she engages in potentially uncomfortable situations with strangers posting various announcements online, covering their pitiful stories and trying to understand their sorrow). for that reason, she insists on staying in the face of presumable danger and is determined to get to know Aaron (Josef changes his name to this one after dealing with his victim in Creep) as conscientiously as possible, bringing his most sensitive aspects to the daylight - by provoking him to confess about his abduction experience during his breakdown in the hot tub or signing him up for a game of two lies and one truth (this way revealing that he has never slept with a woman). along with a growing passion that Aaron holds for Sara, he convinces himself into a double suicide performed by him and his companion, which would thrillingly end with them both crawling into a freshly digged grave together. but later on is made to knock out his so-called soulmate, who had tried to run away in terror. however, he's the one ending up unconscious, as Sara manages to get out of the hole she had been dragged into, just in time to incapacitate Aaron with a shovel. so, in the very ending of the movie and in contrary to Creep, the victim survives. although this could be easily debunked, as the closing scenes include an unspecified individual following Sara, unaware of being the central frame of the device. she realizes the identity of her follower, obviously petrified, only after they begin their quiet whistling. this vague and obscure ending is either a foreshadow of a decent continuation or a terse message, that Aaron hasn't given up on his priorities yet.
my thoughts: seldom does it occur, that the descendant is better than the sacred original. well, that's the case for me. i highly enjoy releases kept in found footage style, and that's one of the main reasons which had drawn me to Creep as a whole at first. however, the movie from 2014 seems more of an prologue something more, to me - not a separate entirety, as i feel it should. without a sequel, or at least if i had decided not to watch the second installment at all, it would be consistently complete - had it not been for some threads picked up and left afloat just as quickly, this incoherence would have been much more valuable. on the other hand, i'm prone to considering it an advantage; bending upon the figure of Josef, a remarkably impostorous individual altering his narration depending on the situation, so as to make himself look extremely lonely or vulnerable and find himself in favor of his victims, the inconsistency (like, for instance, in case of his potential mental issues, for which he was treated but never managed to feel any better or to fit into society; basically putting up a show about him being a poor, unwanted human being. it's never confirmed, whether he was factually unwell in a psychological sense and it was the thing that supported his violent and weird behaviors or he was straight out a reckless murderer, using those mercy-seeking tricks for his own satisfaction and fulfilling his twisted needs) would have been deliberate and acceptable.
i also feel that the performance we're given in the entirety of Creep is a quite reliable, and therefore a realistic portrayal of a serial killer. firstly and foremostly, Josef/Aaron is negatively intimidating on several levels, but just by his very existence when in direct contact. not exactly terrifying, especially from the start alone, but always unnerving in a way. and chaotic in his thinking patterns or their complete lack of, mostly acting irrationally. at least that's what i'd say makes Mark Duplass's performance so authentic, despite its voluntary amateurism, resulting from the found footage convention. and the portrayal of this character reaches its peak in the second installment - he's more straightforward, more insane and more disturbing, yet electrifying. in Creep, the boldest to which Josef confesses to is raping his alleged wife (also presumably interested in animal pornography) in his beloved wolf mask - at this point, its genuineness is questionable, especially when taking into consideration his way of being and the fact about no sexual contacts withe the opposite sex revealed in Creep 2. but what bugs me about it, is the thing Aaron mentions in the movie from 2017 - right after uncovering Sara's actual intentions, he mentions, he never entirely lies and always remains true in his eyes or heart. it just plain points to him having those tendencies either way. or never meaning to say anything that comes out of is mouth, seeking enjoyment in pretending on a daily basis. however, in the sequel - although implicitly provoked by Sara - he shamelessly claims to have murdered 39 people so far and aims for 40, confesses to pleasuring the act of murder, describes the time he was abducted and almost killed in his teens or kindly asks his companion to end his life. pure madness, just as if he was on the verge of insanity - if the state of mind he has already been suck in could get any worse by then. and it seemed like all of these things mentioned were true to him. he meant them - with his words, eyes and heart.
coming down to that, there's another thing i want to mention - the matter of trust and naivety. Aaron, in the first installment, has boundless faith in Josef's misery and non-culpable loneliness haunting him, those connected to misjudgment of his odd personality. so, he doesn't turn around when supposed to meet him by the lake and, consequently, is killed - literally - by his lack of reasoning. the same goes for Aaron in the second part of the series - he continues speaking to the camera, praising Sara's greatness and importance into the numb silence of the woods, when she's preparing herself to beat him with a shovel in the meantime - just behind him, ready to swing it anytime. he also could've turned back. i perceive it as a very nice parallel, just like the question Sara asks Aaron when he's chopping wood with the infamous axe; that is, if any part of him intends on murdering her with that tool. ring ring, the same thing was raised in the 2014 film, although the question came from Josef and was about whether Aaron had any doubts about being attacked with it. he also shows the video he was working on with his previous victim, just like a well maintained souvenir, of him sticking that same axe into Aaron's head to Sara. really, really nice. what's also nice is Xiu Xiu's track played alone with the credits. a sublime, but a forceful touch. on spot, even. that brings me to an unfortunate statement - Duplass's acting - first as Josef and then as Aaron - carries the whole series, crafts the appropriate atmosphere and is the reason for the originality of the movies among others of similar kind. he does it all, story aside.
my rating (on a scale from 1 to 5): 3/5 + 4/5
favorite quote: "Well, this is my destiny. Sara loves her juicy fruit. And Aaron loves to kill."
favorite scene: (because why not) i'd actually name two here; one from Creep and the other from Creep 2. the one regarding the first release would be Josef standing high up the cabin stairs, his face swallowed by the dark and almost desperately insisting on Aaron staying overnight. the tension accompanying this scene was something else, almost as if that one drink with Josef was a matter of life and death. because it was, in the long run. at least an extremely crucial decision. in terms on Creep 2, i'd point to the shot consisting in Aaron sitting in the bathtub - with this disturbing kind of gaze in his eyes - and telling a story about his favorite song, smoothly moving onto describing his earliest trauma. this whole sequence felt strangely intimate, so as not to state that it felt intimidating - because most of Josef's/Aaron's acts could be labeled this way.
the images were found by me on the internet, credit to their original uploaders.

In June 2023, a group of Finland’s most notorious neo-Nazis and a few of their international friends ventured to a lakeside cabin resort set against picturesque woodlands some 120 kilometres north of Helsinki.
They called the gathering ‘White Boy Summer Fest’ after an internet meme co-opted by far-right extremists. Bellingcat first investigated the phenomenon in 2021. Run by a far-right cultural collective and combat sports group, the event was first held last year, and organisers have indicated plans to make White Boy Summer Fest (WBS) an annual affair.
Over two days, attendees watched far-right bands perform, participated in combat sports, and mingled with other hate group members in hot tubs. Observers warn that neo-Nazi networks — including international ones like the Hammerskins, whose members attended WBS — use events like these to network, radicalise each other, recruit new members and raise money.
Organisers have successfully kept the locations of the 2022 and 2023 WBS events hidden from the public — until now. Thanks to Bellingcat’s Global Authentication Project (GAP) and burgeoning Discord community, we geolocated both events to rural accommodations belonging to Evo Nature Ltd, a hospitality company in southern Finland. According to its website, Evo has properties in 15 locations between Helsinki and Tampere and received approximately 30,000 customers in 2019.
When asked about the booking, Evo owner Kaj Järvinen told Bellingcat he had no knowledge of the events held by WBS and emphasised that his properties receive a large number of bookings each year.
“I have no clue whatsoever about these type of events. We have around 20 large rental properties. We receive more than 5,000 offer requests and around 1,000 group bookings on a yearly basis, and we do not ‘screen’ our customers if there are no obvious reasons visible.”
There is no suggestion that Evo broke any laws in renting out the property. Neo-Nazi groups in Finland have previously rented for-hire venues without the owner’s knowledge: for example a concert earlier this year was organised by the Jyväskylä branch of far-right network Blood and Honor at a leftist social club near the centre of the city.
In-person venues are nevertheless crucial to the neo-Nazi scene and related subcultures: Europol, the European Union (EU) law enforcement agency, noted they “place high value on physical meetings and group activities” in a report earlier this year.
The 2023 edition of WBS kicked off the evening of Friday, June 16. As photos posted by organisers on social media make clear, the spectacle was anything but subtle. Four Finnish neo-Nazi bands performed sets on a stage in a log cabin while flanked by two swastika banners. Some band members sported Nazi patches and symbols on their clothes and instruments.
In a video taken inside the cabin and posted by organisers, a flag of the international neo-Nazi network Blood & Honour hangs on a wall by the stage. As Bellingcat discussed in our investigation of European Fight Night in Hungary, Blood and Honour is banned in several European countries, including Germany and Spain. They were also listed as a terrorist organisation by the Canadian government in 2019.
Meanwhile, members of the domestic neo-Nazi group Crew 38 Finland attended WBS, according to their Telegram channel.
According to a report earlier this year by Finland’s public broadcaster, police documents suggest five men arrested in 2021 over suspicion of planning terrorist attacks were significantly influenced by Crew 38 Finland, and met frequently with some of its members.
Crew 38 Finland are also an affiliate of the international Hammerskins network. Founded in the late 1980s in Dallas, Texas, the Hammerskins are described as “the most violent and best-organised neo-Nazi skinhead group in the United States,” by the US-based Anti-Defamation League (ADL).
Nicolas Potter, a researcher at the Amadeu Antonio Foundation, a German NGO which works to combat racism and far-right extremism, warned EU policymakers in an address to the Council of Europe earlier this year that “classic neo-Nazi networks from the Hammerskins to Blood & Honour continue to forge international alliances,” adding “far-right rock festivals and Mixed Martial Arts tournaments serve as spaces of radicalisation, recruitment and fundraising.”
The weekend of events was about more than just music; participants could sit in the sauna, get a tattoo and buy clothes from extremist brands (some of which feature in our 2022 investigation of far-right fashion).
They could also watch a series of combat sports fights put on by Veren Laki (‘Law of Blood’), one of the event’s co-organisers. According to Tommi Kotonen, an expert on far-right extremism in Finland, Veren Laki is linked to the Finnish branch of the neo-Nazi Nordic Resistance Movement (Finnish acronym PVL). The country’s highest court issued a temporary ban against the group in 2019 due to its spreading of hate speech and use of violence.
Veren Laki is linked to other similar groups internationally that focus on combat sports and training for physical confrontation. According to the organisation’s Telegram channel, a fighter from Veren Laki fought at the far-right combat sports event European Fight Night in Hungary in May 2023. At WBS 2023, photos show several fighters wearing equipment from Pride France, a brand run by French neo-Nazi Tomasz Szkatulski. Currently based in Sofia, Bulgaria, Szkatulski posted on his Telegram channel that he was banned from entering Germany for ten years in July 2023.
The fights outside were followed by another indoor concert. Four bands, including two from Italy, took to the now swastika-free stage to play. Green Arrows, an Italian band popular across Europe’s far-right extremist music scenes, headlined. Green Arrows has publicly declared their support for Italy’s neo-fascist CasaPound movement — the movement’s flag adorned the stage during their set.
But where exactly did all of this take place? Upon seeing photos and video of the event, one of Bellingcat’s volunteers who is based in Finland thought the location looked familiar and began to investigate.
Suspecting it was one of a series of rentable rural cottages in the southern Finnish Lakeland, he soon found a possible venue location on Google Maps.
Open source techniques confirmed his suspicion. He later realised he had been to the location as part of a routine work retreat. A comparison of photos and a video shared by WBS organisers with images of the property posted on Evo’s website confirmed the location of WBS 2023 — a log cabin in the Hämeenlinna region described as an “atmospheric event space” with a small stage and room for 100 people. The barn is part of a seven-acre rental complex with villa apartments, three hot tubs and a lakeside sauna. The site, which is advertised for corporate retreats and family holidays, is approximately a two-hour drive from Finland’s capital, Helsinki, and 90 minutes from Tampere, Finland’s second-largest urban area. Photos of the venue from the owner’s website showed a room whose wooden beams match those seen in photos of a musical performance during WBS 2023.
Furthermore, the pattern observed on a wooden beam as well as the gaps in the wood of the log cabin matches photos of the cabin on the accommodation website with those in a photo posted by WBS participants.
But what about the previous year’s “festivities” at WBS 2022?
One of the organisers’ Telegram channels outlined to attendees that the 2023 location wasn’t the same as in 2022, but “about a 15-minute drive from last year’s location.”
Searching for similar rentable rural venues in the vicinity of the 2023 event, Bellingcat found the location of the 2022 event — a small villa of red-sided cabins owned by the same hospitality company.
While WBS organisers have announced plans for a 2024 edition, it is unclear if a venue has been chosen. One thing is clear: the value of gatherings like these to the far-right organisations.
Not only do they provide groups a chance to share and promote their ideology, the Financial Action Task Force, the Paris-based global money-laundering watchdog, said in a 2021 report that “most of the funding for extreme right-wing groups appears to come from licit sources” including concert organising and merchandise sales.
