#cod McCoy

[kiwikipedia]

Hot COD summer where the 141 and Delta Team Metal go to the beach.

Truck and Grinch are trying to bury Sandman, Roach filled Price’s hat with sand and is trying to put it back on his head. Ghost still has his stupid mask on. Soap fell into a tide pool.

Frost and Yuri are throwing a frisbee. It wrecks Gaz’s sandcastle. Ramirez was invited by Frost. He also is playing frisbee.

Allen is dying face down in the sand (got sun screened and hates sunscreen). Archer and Toad are duking it out via volleyball with Scarecrow and Ozone.

McCoy is fishing. Gator gets fished on accident. Nikolai has to cut the fishhook out.

Overlord was handed a shovel and is now digging the world’s worst and deepest pit.

"Most don't. Everything about me is unbelievable. But it all happened, Dustin saw it happen and everyone saw me clear the finish line." Rusty gave Cod a smile and shook her hand, "Rusty McCoy, the media and a few trains have taken to cslling me 'the Son of Starlight', but you can just call me Rusty. Pleasure to meet you."

He let go of her hand and stood to his full height, "Now, we should see if they'll let you two register. Follow me."

Rusty slowly began to walk towards a big building towards the gate of the yard, not wanting to rush the pair.

"Hello?" Rusty calls out, slamming his breaks to a stop, causing his train to jostle a bit behind him. Rusty turns around and apologizes quietly before standing up as tall as he can and calling out to the fellow piece of rolling stock who seemed to be by themself on the rail. Rusty was uncertain of how to proceed. This wasn't just some debris he could pick up and move...this machine could be hurt. He didn't want to travel any further until he was certain they were okay. "Are you alright?" Rusty calls out again, and for good measure, he whistles loudly. The kind of whistle used as an attention getter by little switching engines...he hadn't quite grown out of that habit.

Good Kids (2016) dir. Chris McCoy

Role: Andy Evans (main)

Synopsis: Lifelong friends Andy, Nora, Spice, and The Lion have graduated high school and realized they’ve gone their entire lives without doing anything “fun,” isolating themselves to focus on being the titular “good kids.” They decide to have a summer of debauchery before they enter college, each with a goal in mind. Nora wants a boyfriend, and dates an older man at her job; Spice wants “release” in the form of, most likely, a singular handjob; The Lion wants to do a shitton of drugs; and Andy wants sexual experience before his potentially-catfishing Indian girlfriend visits. He finds this in the group of older women he coaches at the tennis club, who pay him for “private lessons.”

Thoughts: my. fucking god. the milf thing. i don’t know what else i can talk about? when that happened? there was a MONTAGE of him FUCKING EVERY MILF IN CAPE COD (or wherever tf they are, definitely in new england). it hurts to see someone else live your dream (both him and the milfs). let me in there. anyways, accidentally getting into sex work at 18 is certainly not a great situation, but at least he’s having a good time. until the husbands unionized to come beat his ass. i know i say this often, but: This Was A Lot. overall a fun cheesy movie! i’d absolutely watch again. really captured the Nicholas Braun vibe of “unfuckable dork who somehow fucks severely.” i think, if anything, that’s what i’m learning. that’s who this man is at his core. and i respect it!

Carol Susan Jane Danvers AKA Captain Marvel - #2 hero in America

Past Aliases: Ace, Binary, Carol Daniels, Captain Whiz Bang, Cheeseburger, Major Danvers, Ms. Marvel, Warbird

Carol Danvers was born and raised in a Beverly suburban community to the north of Boston, Massachusetts. She was the youngest of three children after Stevie and Joe, Jr.. Her father was physically abusive to her half-brothers. When her father built their Cape Cod summer home, Carol insisted on working as hard as her two older half-brothers, trying to appear equal in her father's eyes. A voracious reader, she dreamed of becoming an astronaut and traveling to distant planets; as a teen she even hitchhiked to Cape Canaveral to view a launch there. Her father, however, could not accept women as men's equal, and when financial troubles meant he could only send one child to college, he chose Steve despite Carol's superior grades. He also dismissed her need for a college education and wanted her to find a good husband instead.

She turned 18 just a few months later, and the following day she turned her back on her father and joined the Air Force, intending to be a pilot and to get a college degree via the military. Her brother Steve's death in military action would eventually draw Carol back to her family, but she still never felt truly accepted by her father. She quickly rose to the top of her Air Force class, taking the call sign "Cheeseburger". While flying an experimental jet through Arabic air space, however, Carol was shot down and captured by a man named Ghazi Rashid, who tortured her for several days. She managed to escape (despite a broken leg and serious injuries), reach a CIA safe-house in the area, and provide key information to the intelligence community.

The traumatic experience set off a chain reaction and over the next few weeks her quirks manifested. She was sent into intense training to learn how to control her quirks and afterwards joined a group called The Avengers. The military background played a key role in not only her training but her popularity as she quickly rose to the number two spot in America. With the state of the American Hero Systema she’s uprooted herself and moved to Japan to help with the rise of activity there. She’s also taken up a teaching job at U.A. High to help train the next generation of Hero’s. She helps with both combat training and teaching English.

Quirks:

Enhanced Physical Abilities

Superhuman Strength: Carol is super-humanly strong, though her specific level of strength has varied over the years. She is currently listed at a normal level of roughly Class 50, half her original strength as Binary. However, since she is able to absorb and manipulate various types of energy, she can use this redirected energy to temporarily increase her physical strength to near-Binary levels, or Class 100+. Currently, her strength level at its resting rate allows her to support well over 100 tons, as she was able to support the weight of dead Celestial as one fell to Earth.

Superhuman Stamina: Carol's musculature produces considerably fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity than an ordinary human. As Binary, she could physically exert herself at peak capacity for about 24 hours before fatigue began to impair her. She was reduced to roughly half this capacity after losing her Binary powers. However, she is capable of channeling absorbed energy to further increase her stamina to higher levels

Superhuman Durability: The tissues of her body are considerably harder and more resistant to physical injury than those of an ordinary human. She is capable of withstanding high caliber bullets, great impact forces, falls from great heights, exposure to temperature and pressure extremes, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining any injury. While channeling the energy she has absorbed, her body's resilience is extended to an even greater degree.

Superhuman Agility: As Binary, Carol's agility, balance, and bodily coordination were enhanced to levels significantly beyond the natural limits of the human body.

Superhuman Reflexes: As Binary, Carol's reflexes were heightened to the point of being virtually instantaneous.

Flight  Carol is capable of propelling herself through the air and the vacuum of space at tremendous speeds. Although her top speed is unknown, she flew at three times the speed of sound for several hours, so it is likely she can go much faster.

Space Flight: As Binary, Carol was capable of surviving unaided in the vacuum of space for indefinite periods of time. After first losing her Binary powers, Carol proved incapable of achieving orbit or surviving unaided in space. However, she was highly intoxicated when she attempted to do so, which may have hampered her progress. She has since proved capable of surviving and fighting in the vacuum of space, only requiring an air supply to do so

Flash Precognition (a.k.a. Cosmic Awareness/Hyper-Cosmic Awareness): As Ms. Marvel, Carol was subconsciously able to anticipate the moves of her opponents, though this power activated randomly, making it unreliable. After Rogue robbed her of her powers, she was subsequently transformed into Binary. After her Binary powers faded, it seems that Carol's Seventh Sense returned.

Regenerative Manipulation: Captain Marvel boasts a healing ability which she can consciously push to an extant, boasting a healing factor supplemented by absorbed energy. A facet of which was gifted unto her when part of the central nucleus of a techno-organic alien named Cru had physically merged with her.  This facility also bolsters the potency of her metabolism, allowing her to quickly regenerate from catastrophic wounds such as nuclear detonation, genetic disruption even brood infection. Her newfound recovery abilities had the added bonus of restoring lost biophysical facilities; like her ability to shift between Binary and Carol at will.

Contaminant Immunity: Carol's regenerative powers are so potent that she has a greater degree of immunity to toxins, diseases and/or poisons. Even being able to resist embryonic infection by the brood after a second attempt by one of their queens.

Decelerated Aging/Conventional Immortality: Dr. McCoy brought up how these new healing abilities put those of Wolverine to shame. Stating that her regen powers would keep Ms. Danvers in her prime forever.

Healing: Like her accelerated healing factor, Carol is able to rapidly heal others by focusing different forms of energy into their body, thereby greatly boosting their healing processes.

Energy Manipulation: Much like her namesake predecessor, Captain Marvel can control, absorb, and manipulate various types of energy to be discharged however she sees fit. Over the years, Carol has become an expert at modulating the various aspects of re-purposed energy at her disposal, even learning some new tricks from her alt. counterparts during her life as a super heroine.

Energy Absorption: Her body is capable of absorbing various types of energy for the purpose of temporarily enhancing her own physical attributes. She can augment her strength and energy projection up to the force of an exploding nuclear weapon. If empowered by enough energy, she can assume her Binary form again temporarily.

Photon Blasts: Carol can fire powerful concussion blasts of photon and stellar light energy from her hands and fingertips.As with a doppelganger of hers, Ms. Marvel can potentially discharge her energy from the eyes as well.

Molecular Manipulation: By channeling the absorbed energy, Carol is able to manipulate and alter matter and energy on a molecular level. She can use absorbed energy to transform her regular clothing into her costume and vice-versa. (This is an ability she once possessed as Ms. Marvel. Carol did not demonstrate the ability as Binary, it only resurfaced after her powers were reduced and she began going by Warbird.)

Matter Transmutation: By using her molecular manipulation, She is able to alter and reform matter and energy around her.This allows her to create and absorb matter and energy, shape, and rebuild it into anything of her choosing.

Energy-Construct Creation: As Captain Marvel, Carol has used her energy powers in more creative ways: She was able to create an energy barrier around a blast cannon which choked up the works until its internal structure violently ruptured from the inside out.She can even shape her stored energy into more practical shapes, like razor blades of pure energy to slice and sear with.

Self Sustenance: Captain Marvel proved time and again she can survive without need for eat, sleep, breath or rest by thriving the ambient energies within her surroundings. Capable of thriving perfectly within the cold recesses of deep space with little to no discomfort at all.

Abilities

Experienced Spy: Carol is an experienced spy, having worked various undercover operations for Air Force Intelligence.

Multilingual: Carol is fluent in English, Russian, Japanese.

Master Pilot: Carol is an accomplished pilot, having extensive experience with USAF planes.

Master Combatant: She is extensively trained in armed and unarmed combat through military combatives.

Talented Journalist: Carol is a talented journalist excelling as a freelance writer and magazine editor

“I’m proposing to Veronica on Cape Cod,” Archie said, gripping a little too tightly the glass of whiskey Betty had poured for him minutes earlier.

Betty’s eyebrows raised, followed by a huge smile. “Oh my God, Archie! That’s amazing. Veronica’s gonna love it.”

“Good, ‘cause I’m gonna need your help to pull this off,” Archie said warily.

Betty laughed heartily. “Whatever I can do to make this perfect for you two,” she said. “You both deserve it.”

Archie smiled, but a tentative sort of smile that told Betty he still had information to share. “I want all our closest friends to be there,” he said, and Betty’s stomach dropped, already anticipating where this was going. “So I just wanted to warn you...Jughead is coming.”

Or: seven years after distance forced them apart, Betty and Jughead share a bed for three nights.

what is your absolute favorite ship?what ship do you hate most?

Send me ship asks!

(Under the cut because I ramble and cheat a bit here.) 

Favourite Ship: 

This is likely to come as a surprise to anyone who follows CITS (or not a surprise at all if you spend enough time hanging out with me on tumblr/skype) but my hand on heart favourite ship is Lara ‘Bones’ McCoy/ Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley. I know, I know,  I’ve spent six years of my life and about 300,000 words writing a fic that results in Lara/Soap, and don’t get me wrong here and don’t think that I don’t love that ship too. But lemme explain myself a bit here. 

Lara/Soap was always the plan. Like, when I first set out writing CITS, I wanted to achieve two things, the first was to write a story with a believeable female OC in the Modern Warfare universe, and the second was to write a romance option for my personal headcanon for Soap. At the start, Lara/Ghost was a plot device, a way for Lara to fuck up and make a mistake and a way to shake up the dynamic that existed between my three central characters. But I’m a big believer in organic story telling, in adapting how you write characters as your perception of them as a writer changes and that was what happened with Lara and Ghost. Somehow, I ended exploring and developing both of their characters in a lot more detail through the ship and it drove the plot of CITS forward in ways that I do not regret in the slightest. In the end, I had to break them up, because ultimately, there was too much groundwork laid already in CITS for Lara/Soap and in the context that I had written them in, it still made the most sense. 

That being said, the pairing has mad chemistry, beyond what I had originally planned. It’s always kind of been a plan of mine to go back and write a CITS!AU where they stay together because I honestly would love to write more of their dynamic. I am also hugely fortunate to have had the opportunity to have a writing buddy like @smashinterrupted who has written the pairing with me over the last two years (mainly through our RP blogs) and has been a driving force in fleshing out the ship to what exists in both our heads today. I could basically ramble about Lara/Ghost (or Skeleton as we like to call them) for days, and I guess if anyone wants to know more than its probably better to poke me about them in a separate ask? Otherwise I will be here for DAYS. 

Most Hated Ship: 

Hate is an incredibly strong word. I can’t think of a ship that really fits that description in terms of how much I dislike it, but there’s definitely a few ships that you are highly unlikely to see me write. I’m not throwing shade at anyone for writing these pairings btw, that really isn’t my style. 

John ‘Soap’ MacTavish/ John Price is just a no no for me. I’m all for slash, but for me this ship feels forced. I love these two characters, but they are always going to exist as a father/son relationship in my head. The same goes for Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley/ Gary ‘Roach’ Sanderson. I love these two as platonic BFFs and brothers, but again, I have never really seen them as lovers. It likely doesn’t help that in a lot of fanfictions with this pairing, Roach is always a bit... childlike? That’s another turn off in Satsuma land. 

Breaking out of CoD for a second, Dragon age and shipping Dorian/Cullen. Why???

The Friendly Merman 3

In spite of his fears at being caged, Jim found the rehab center fascinating. His wounds were looked after carefully by the humans and he was assigned a special cot for the first few days that would allow his tail to heal, while keeping it wet. Despite his boredom and frustration at being unable to swim, he was soon caught up in the bustling activity going on around him. There were several other merpeople on similar cots near Jim and many others slowly swimming in a large tank along with dolphins, rays, and various other sea creatures. His damaged tail and fins were carefully tended by humans very unlike the rough ones Jim had heard tales of. He was fed rather nicely, with a young lad bringing around a bucket of fresh fish for the Mer's meals. 

The day after his arrival, the nice human doctor who'd first helped him after he'd washed up on the shore came to visit him, bearing a bag that contained some strange devices. "Hiya, Jim, how do you like your temporary home?" She stopped beside his cot and looked him over, greenish brown eyes inspecting his bandaged shoulder. "Hello, Bones!" He said, happy to see her. "It is a much better place than I thought." "Good, good. I thought you'd like it. Now, Jim, I'm going to need you to be brave for me. I'm going to use this device to help heal your cuts and bruises and it might hurt a bit at first, but it's going to help mend you." She held up a funny looking device. Jim looked at it askance, wondering what terrible magic humans had, then decided it didn't look big enough to vaporize him after all. "Okay. Go ahead," he said at last and Dr. McCoy began to undo his bandage. "Urky!" he squeaked in surprise as he watched his skin knit  back together under the whirring of the magic thing. It only hurt a little bit, but the pulling sensation was weird. "No, it's not magic, young one," said the old grey-haired Mer in the cot next to him. "Humans have developed these things on their own. It's called a regenerator." "Re-gen-er-a-tor" Jim sounded out slowly, pondering the human's complicated language. The doctor smiled at him. "Very good, Jim. You're doing great. Only a few more minutes left." Soon enough, she turned off the device and Jim looked in amazement at his now healed shoulder. "Bones....it's amazing! You fixed it!!" "Yep. Now be careful how you use it for a few days. The new skin's still tender." Jim carefully ran his hand over the spot, feeling the smooth new skin. He was more fascinated than ever with the humans. "How's your tail comin?" She asked after she'd checked out his other bruises and fixed the worst of them as well. "Spock says it'll be a week before I can swim with it," Jim said sadly, flopping his fin a bit. "It's kind of frustrating, seeing that big beautiful tank and not being able to explore it." He looked longingly toward the glass wall behind which several mermaids could be seen frolicking in the water. Leah glanced towards it and chuckled. "It appears those gals are eager to make your acquaintance as well. The red-haired one keeps blowing kisses at you." Jim's face grew warm at that. Yeah, they definitely had flirted with him more than a few times already. While they were pretty, he liked Bones better. She had a gruff, but gentle way about her and had nothing but honesty in her treatment of him. "Well, now that you're all set for the time being, why don't you tell me how you got in a fight with those Sirens." Jim sighed. "Well, they like to taunt me about my father. He died right after I was spawned fighting off an attack by their evil leader Nero." The old mer started playing close attention for some reason. "I was minding my own business, following a school of cod when they swam by and started yelling insults. ""Son of failure!! You pathetic little mer!!"" They yelled, along with dreadful words I won't tell you. Now, I wasn't going to put up with hearing my father called a failure, or me pathetic, so I fought them." Jim crossed his arms and frowned. "That might have been a mistake. It was four against one. Turned out the shark attack helped save me from being beaten worse." "I don't know about that, Jim. You could have bled to death from those wounds. Good thing Jo dragged me out to that beach wanting to see merpeople. Who knows when someone would have come along?" "I didn't know how bad it was," Jim admitted. "I only knew I needed to get to shore fast. I'm so glad you were there." "So was I," Leah said, and smiled at him. What was it the humans called the creases around their mouths when they made that expression? He wracked his brain, but couldn't remember. "You met any of the other mer, yet? You seem like the sociable type," the doctor asked while packing up her equipment. "A few," Jim said. "I haven't talked to this elder yet," (he gestured to his neighbor) "but that young man with the grey tail is Pavel and the wiggly one with the red-brown tail goes by Scotty. All the rest are in the tank, so I can't talk to them yet. I don't think Pavel knows your kind of people-ish. He just came from Russia." The Russian mer in question had a rather cherubic appearance, with wild curly hair around his youthful face. His lean body showed signs of malnourishment and exhaustion and he dozed most of the time in his cot. Leah guessed the trip from Russia had been very grueling for the kid. Scotty, on the other hand, was quite alert and deep in concentration on toying with a pile of clamshells he'd been given to occupy himself with. His left arm was in a sling, but otherwise he looked quite healthy. "He keeps trying to take everything apart and figure out how it works, so they gave him those to distract him," Jim explained. Scotty looked up and grinned at Leah, chattering away in Mermish. "He wants to know where I found the pretty human visitor," Jim translated. "And if you can fix him with your device." "What did he do to his arm? Doesn't look broken." More chattering came from the mers and Jim reported "he knocked it out of its socket. They put it back, but he has to wear the sling for awhile." "Ouch." Leah said sympathetically. Dislocated arms were extremely painful, especially to put back. "Tell him he doesn't need a regenerator, but I'll show him how my tricorder works, if he promises not to touch." She ended up running her tricorder over the Scottish mer while he chattered away to Jim excitedly and squeaked with delight when she showed him his insides. When he'd looked his fill, she went back over to Jim and the older merman. "So Jim, do you travel in family groups or are you a loner? Spock says you guys migrate past here." "Some of us do. I don't really have a pod anymore so I tend to just follow at the edges of others for migration trips. This year, I decided to stay here. Didn't know the sirens moved in here when we leave. Guess I won't be staying back again." Jim let out a sad sigh. He wished he could find a pod to belong to, but with his unfortunate history and well-known family,  other pods saw him as bad luck. "Well, Spock and his researchers will find a safe place for you when you're ready to go back to the ocean," Bones told him. "We don't want you getting torn to shreds. Goodness knows how you survived with all the danger and disease down there." She shuddered. "I rely on my wits, speed, and muscles," he told her, flexing one arm and grinning. "Don't I look like a fabulous specimen?" His neighbor snorted again. Bones laughed. "Well, Joanna thinks you are. I promised to bring her around to visit you tomorrow." "That is pleasing, Bones! She's a delightful little human." "Glad you think so, Jim. You behave yourself, okay? I'll be back tomorrow." "Alright, Bones. I'll try." He sighed, accepting her friendly handshake. She had strong, slender fingers that he imagined were perfect for doctoring and surgery. She waved at every mer in the room as she walked out, leaving behind much interest and mer gossip about the young one's pretty friend. Jim decided he might as well get to know his neighbor to pass the time before their dinner.

Gravity Well Games Is a New AAA Studio Founded By Ex-Infinity Ward and Respawn Devs

May 12, 2020 9:27 AM EST

Gravity Well is a new studio formed by Jon Shiring and Drew McCoy, formerly of Respawn and Infinity Ward, who worked on Titanfall and CoD.

Gravity Well is a new video game studio formed by Drew McCoy and Jon “Slothy” Shiring, who started working together at Infinity Ward over 14 years ago before moving on to help found Respawn Entertainment. Their resume is quite impressive and includes iconic games such as Modern Warfare, Titanfall, and Apex Legends. Since Gravity Well was born during the COVID-19 pandemic, the dynamic duo started the studio working remotely. This “remote native’” business model is a concept the team will continue to employ. This freedom will allow the guys to assemble a diverse team that will not be hindered by relocation or work visa issues. In the words of Shiring himself, “We want to hire the best talent in the industry, regardless of where you live.”

Gravity Well aims to shake up AAA development with daring new projects designed for next-gen hardware including the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC. Their goal is to create these epic games with a smaller team of about 80-85 employees. Drew and Jon feel that once the team size reaches 100, things move slower and creativity becomes stifled. Everyone at Gravity Well will have creative freedom with team health being a top priority, which means Gravity Well will be an anti-crunch company.

We are starting a studio because of how we want to make games. We want time to iterate on everything and get ideas and feedback from the entire team. We’re building this studio to last for decades, and that doesn’t happen without putting the team first. – Drew McCoy

Although remote development will be a unique part of working at Gravity Well, they still plan to set up a home base in Los Angeles and will start looking for an office after the pandemic subsides. Currently, their website has job listings for a few typical positions like QA, Animation, and Art, but also has a Not Listed category that challenges potential employees to create their own position and pitch it.

I imagine it will be a good while before we hear what Gravity Well has in store for gamers, but it’s exciting knowing these two have joined forces. Next-gen just got even more interesting.
