Friday the 13th: A New Beginning (Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning, 1985)

"Jason Voorhees? You're out of your fucking mind, you've been out in the sun too long! Jason Voorhees is dead! His body was cremated, he's nothing but a handful of ash."

"You know that for sure, mayor? Were you there? Did you see him cremated?"

Philadelphia Film Center || @danny-mancini​​

Generally CJ enjoyed her work enough that she could handle whatever topic was thrown at her by her co-workers. Usually she got lucky with her partner but after a shift paired with a rather obnoxious film buff who’d been incessant in their judgement that she needed to see the movie they’d watched last night. They’d gone on and on and on about it despite her oh so subtle hints that she just wasn’t interested in it. But despite them catching at least one of her eyerolls and definitely understanding that her forced enthusiasm was sarcastic, they’d continued and a part of her had to respect their tenacity. So, in a somewhat uncharacteristic whim, she’d decided that for once she might just let someone else wear her down. Not exactly concede defeat but allow someone to sway her decision. She wasn’t about to tell them that but she figured any film that could get someone so worked up about it was maybe worth a watch.

She’d already had vague plans with Danny, a simple agreement that they’d do something when they both finished work. It took a quick text to arrange to meet him at the Film Center instead and so she found herself loitering outside, waiting for him to appear. The change of plans had been last minute and entirely her doing but it did little to dampen her ire that he couldn’t manage the simple task of being on time. Eventually she spotted him coming toward him, arms folding over her chest to make her displeasure known. “Nice of you to show up.” The words bite with sarcasm but really function more as a nip when there’s a smile threatening to tug at her lips. A show is made of pulling her phone out and checking the time, confirming her suspicions. “We’ve missed the movie.” The blunt statement hovers between them for a moment before she offers him an easy out. “But you can make it up to me by taking me to Harp & Crown instead. Just so I can kick your ass, again.”

Outside Retrospect || @danny-mancini

An eye for beautiful things wasn't something that she was lacking but she also struggled with being able to find some kind of redeeming feature in almost anything. It didn't matter how much others might have deemed something ugly or tacky, Esme had a way of seeing something unique or eye-catching. Or sometimes she just felt badly for the piece and couldn't help but feel as though it needed some love and she'd buy them out of almost pity. It meant that shopping for her could at times be a difficult task. It was fine if she was simply browsing with no set goal in mind, she had time to wind her way through the stores and reason with herself about whether things were really worth buying. But with a date looming and a specific dress code that had been given to her. Esme knew she didn't have time to while away and so she'd sent a text to Danny to see if he could help keep her on task. Even if their trip proved fruitless she was certain that he would make the time even more entertaining. "I didn't had time to bake last night so these are not mine but - " She held out a small box containing the tres leches cake he knew he was partial to that she'd picked up on the way in along with her coffee. "- I did get your favourite to keep you going through this. And just as a little token of my thanks for coming to my rescue."

Luca had just gone done with talking to a potential new distributor when he rounded the corner in south philly with a bagel and coffee hand, before colliding into someone. “Watch it man,” he sighed, looking down at his cashmere coat, relieved that there were no stains. Looking up at the other he realized that it was none other than his sister’s ridiculous dancing partner in the most unstable relationship known to man. “Ah of course I’d run into you Danny boy. What have you done to my sister this time around?” CJ had casually dropped the tidbit that the two have parted against for now. They were as fragile as imported china. The moment you thought it would hold together, they crashed and burned like clockwork. It was a bit later in their normal cycle and so for once he held his breath, but wasn’t shocked to hear they had separated again. “Better yet, what did she do to you?”

WHAT A SUPERB BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND!

Well I don’t know about you, but I had the most fantastic Bank Holiday Weekend in Glasgow, Brighouse and Stockport despite the disappointment of two short notice cancellations at the start of the extended weekend.

Firstly, my Thursday gig in Cardiff got cancelled in the morning due to the weather and Storm Lilian. I was supposed to be DJing at the Bay Series New Order afterparty at Clwb Ifor Bach but because the main show got cancelled, the afterparty did too, so apologies for that.

On the Friday I was supposed to be performing with Haçienda Classical at Crooked House Live in Lichfield as well as DJing at an afterparty. However, the event got cancelled on the Wednesday but I can’t apologise for that because it was through no fault of The Haçienda whatsoever and completely down to the promoters who announced that the cancellation was “due to unforeseen circumstances”. This was not the case at all and we are all quite angry about not being able to perform as advertised. The scores of people involved in the show both on and offstage were now unable to work and, like me, had probably turned down other offers due to already being booked. I know you were angry and disappointed too based on the feedback received.

However, things got completely back to normal on the Saturday as I made the train journey to Glasgow for STREETrave 35 at SWG3 where I DJ’d in the TV Studio after CJ Mackintosh. Other DJs on the bill included Paul Oakenfold, Darren Emerson, Michael Kilkie, Jon Mancini and more and it really was a fantastic event with such a great atmosphere throughout this magnificent multi room venue.

On the Sunday I returned to England to DJ at the Our House event near Brighouse for a short afternoon set before heading to Stockport to DJ at the wonderful Moovin’ where I played in the Mini Moo arena to such an up-for-it crowd.

My DJ sets from STREETrave, Our House and Moovin’ will be available on Mixcloud soon and you can fond out where I’m DJing in the coming weeks and months by visiting my website Gig Guide.

Thanks to everyone who came along to party and for your support. I’ll see you in Nottingham this Saturday for Haçienda Live at Wollaton Hall alongside Soul II Soul, Ulta Naté, 808 State, Rowetta, K-klass, Danny Tenaglia, Roger Sanchez and Smokin’ Jo. I’ll also be DJing at the afterparty at NG-One alongside Ultra Naté, Tom Wainwright and Atari Safari.

CJ & Danny

Busy had always been her default. Growing up with parents that never stopped and a house full of siblings who were always up to something, CJ had always thrived when life was at its most hustling and bustling. But for all it's what was natural for her, in more recent weeks it had become a necessity for her. Her time was filled with work mostly, taking as many extra shifts as she could fit, and then when she wasn't working she was either with her abuela or friends. Usually, she was the first to snigger at her friends' varying ideas for ways to pass the time but she'd turned herself into a yes girl and tried knitting, yoga, ballroom dancing - anything that meant she didn't have enough time on her hands to think about her breakup.

Tonight though, she was back in more familiar territory as she joined some of her colleagues for a birthday celebration. But just as she was about to throw back another shot of tequila, prepared to relish the burn it'd send down her throat, something catches in her peripherals. Nose screws up slightly as recognition dawns on her. She'd spent too many hours trying to get through that thick skull to not recognise the back of his head anywhere. For a heartbeat, she considers just ignoring him and continuing on with her night but that feels far too much like admitting defeat and she'd never been one to surrender. Peace so rarely an option for. So instead she quickly takes her shot before making her way into his line of sight, overly sweet smile on her lips. "Of all the gin joints." There's a vague smile on her lips but it's lacking any real warmth. Dangerously saccharine tone faded to make way for more familiar "Do you not know any other fucking bars, Mancini?"

biography / wanted connections (this is a wip!)

tw: illness/cancer, death mention

Maggie has largely lived her life serving as the fun, quirky side character to her older sister Olivia. Content to remain invisible, she's existed in the margins of other peoples' stories, until she met her fiancee, Jane. Shortly into wedding planning, however, Jane was diagnosed with cancer, and things quickly unraveled. A year out from losing Jane, Maggie is attempting to handle grief while managing her work and a worsening anxiety problem. She's currently trying to navigate loss/grief/shame with any semblance of grace but she's...not doing very wellm with that particular venture! She is the best friend of Danny Mancini and a regular at Adam Mancini's bar.

Some other fun facts:

[adamtheemancini]

this is adam! he is 43 and the owner of a bar, and perhaps most importantly the older brother to @danny-mancini

he is the classic middle child who is go with the flow to the point of getting lost in the shuffle, but when he met a girl who Saw Him When He Was Invisible, the world changed, angels appeared, birds sang etc. They were married after graduation and together for a short time before an untimely death which left adam fundamentally altered.

he bought the bar where he first met his late wife and restored it to its former glory, and he spends his days alternately nagging his younger brother and worrying about him. i am genuinely open to any and all connections you can think of!!

DANIEL ‘DANNY’ MANCINI

Age: 35 Gender and pronouns: Male, He/Him Occupation: Athletic Trainer for the Philadelphia Phillies Neighborhood: Fishtown

BIOGRAPHY

tw: death mention, allusions of grief, cancer

Born the youngest of seven, Danny didn’t have to struggle to shine in the Mancini family. He had always been the sort of kid that could make everyone else laugh at the dinner table, whether or was a witty insert, physical humor, or self-deprecating. And perhaps because he had always been a goofball, Danny had been somewhat babied and underestimated. His older siblings were always forced to sit at the table and help him with his homework, and projects always seemed to be a family affair. Hell, his little league games could count as a Mancini family reunion — attention which Danny basked in (only if he and his team performed well, of course). 

But of all of his siblings, Danny took the biggest shine to Adam, the middle sibling. Adam liked boxing, so Danny took up boxing. Whatever music Adam listened to, Danny was their biggest fan. It wasn’t one-up-manship, but simple, unadulterated adulation of his brother. When Adam moved out to college, Danny lingered by the front door every break, waiting for his brother to return to the family home for whatever nominal time he had to offer. Until Adam met Kate, and the dynamic changed forever. 

Danny was forced to garner some individuality, to develop his own likes and dislikes independent of his brother, and as a teenager Danny found that while he was good at sports in high school, he certainly lacked the capacity to make it a career. He’d always been somewhat of a whiz when it came to science, so Danny concluded his logical path would be sports medicine, deciding he would be happy as a physical therapist. It was in freshman biology class that he would meet his lifelong best friend, Maggie Albright. While they had almost nothing in common, the two were bonded by their experience as lab partners, both taking a shine to the other despite all extenuating circumstances. 

When Kate’s accident happened, Danny could hardly process what had happened, having not yet encountered such loss. More than losing Kate, Danny couldn’t wrap his head around what the loss had done to Adam, the man who returned to his family home so different from the big brother that Danny had known before. Somehow, Danny in his simplest form was an odd for of comfort for Adam, which was a relief for Danny. Life carried on, emptier and heavier, but it carried on nonetheless. 

When it came time for Danny to look at colleges, he settled on Temple, as it gave him the kind of proximity he wanted to the world of Philly sports. Academically, Danny excelled in college, and it wasn’t long before Adam followed him back to Philadelphia. Adam chose to stay after college, pursuing his Masters from Temple as well, and working at his Alma Mater as an athletic trainer. After a few years, his dream opportunity arrived: working for the Philadelphia Phillies. As a kid, Danny’s room had been plastered wall to wall with memorabilia and posters of the greats of his youth - Howard, Utley, Pat the Bat. To walk on the field at Citizen’s Bank Park was surreal, to say the least. 

While his professional life could not be taking off more exponentially, a roadblock appeared in his personal life. Maggie’s fiancee, Jane, had been diagnosed with terminal cancer. When Kate had died, Danny hadn’t possessed the opportunity to do anything, to tell his sister-in-law how much she meant to him. But with Jane, Danny had the opportunity to show her how much he loved her, and subsequently, how much he loved Maggie. He was an on-call nurse or babysitter, often getting into trouble with Maggie for sneaking Jane out for a drink when she asked. And while it was the hardest thing Danny had ever done, it was also the most rewarding, to have played such a role in Maggie’s grief and Jane’s final days. 

Unlike Maggie, Danny hadn’t considered himself lucky when it came to love, having found that in the last few years he’d become embroiled in a fairly toxic on-again, off-again relationship. While those closest to him concluded it wasn’t good for him, they forgot to consider how sensitive Danny was — and also how stubborn he was. Despite what CJ did, or however many times they broke up, or took a break, or got back together, and despite how many times they both said it was the last time, he couldn’t help but come back for more. 

And for Danny, his work and his friends, and even CJ, could be enough, so long as the Phils were winning.

DANNY MANCINI has the face claim of MILES TELLER and is played by DARBY.

[danny-mancini]

Hi everyone!  One of the boys I’m bringing in is Daniel ‘Danny’ Mancini, who comes from an Italian-Jewish family in New Jersey, but has been in Philly since he attended Temple University (he’s now 35). He is a Physical Trainer for the Philadelphia Phillies and is a HUGE Phillies sports fan. You can catch Danny at his brother Adam’s bar (Eric Balfour) or with his best friend Maggie Albright (Tori Anderson), unless he’s up to no good with his on-again, off-again girlfriend CJ (Monica Barbero). Always looking for friendship / workplace connections and potential romantic drama!
