in my mind dean was always supposed to get older and become the new bobby. like ok you're a hunter, maybe a little new to the scene and still figuring things out. and you're tracking down a werewolf, easy case. except some things don't line up quite right and now you're thinking it might not actually be a werewolf. so you ask around a hunter's bar and they all say the same thing. go to this one bunker in the middle of nowhere in kansas

and you're like sure what the hell. you're stumped anyway, might as well check it out. maybe it's a weapons storehouse or something. but then you get there and there's a doorbell and a bee-shaped welcome mat out front and you're starting to think you've got the wrong place. the door swings open and there's this middle aged guy with a robe and batman pyjama bottoms. and he laughs at the look on your face and tells you to come in, he doesn't bite. not since he got that vampire cure, anyway. you're not sure what to make of that last part but he winks at you when he says it so you figure he's joking. maybe.

he gives great advice about hunting everything under the sun and if you stick around long enough he'll go on and on about how he saved the world at least five times. ok sure. you don't want to be rude so you just sit there and sip your coffee politely while he talks about some guy called chuck and how much of a bitch he is. and another guy who's aged a little more gracefully comes padding down the hallway in a metallica t-shirt and rolls his eyes. has he told you about tvland yet? ('i was just getting to that part!')

if you go to the basement you'll find shotguns filled with salt, wooden stakes, holy water, and demon-killing bullets for sale. and if you're lucky the witch who sells hex bags might be around. low-grade curses only, of course. you better leave the powerful stuff to the professionals. and she'll get in trouble if she gives you anything stronger, not that she can't be persuaded. a girl's gotta make a living after all and she's always encouraged eager new witches. it's worked out pretty well for her so far. and then a guy you swear is twice your height will raise an eyebrow at her and insist she only sell the weaker hex bags, please. you don't need any more witches in your coven, rowena. you've got plenty

pagan god giving you trouble? there's a man who swings by every once in a while who knows how to deal with those. give him some candy or a fun magic relic and he might help you out. it depends. he's a little picky about dishing out advice and he likes to play favorites. and if you've got a demon problem they can give you the number of a guy who swears up and down that he used to be the king of hell. but you've seen him walking around with a purse-sized terrier tucked under his arm and a dozen more following him so you're not really sure if you believe him

idk i like to think that dean got to grow old and retire. that doesn't mean he stops helping people, it just means he hangs up his coat and becomes an old man who rambles on and on about 'back in my day' and makes a dent in his leather armchair. there's a foosball table where the dungeon used to be and sam complains about beer bottles being everywhere and it becomes a safe haven for anyone still fighting the good fight. it's just that for dean and the rest of team free will the fight is over. they're done hunting now

Ooh I wanna play the game with the private Larry questions!!

What is their favorite breakfast/dinner to eat:

Breakfast - avocado toast but Louis refuses, so Harry thaws him some carrot cake breakfast muffins. He’s happy.

Dinner - obviously chicken stuffed with mozzarella wrapped in Parma ham with a side of homemade mash

Favorite spot in the house - like I can’t even come up with a pg answer, it’s gonna be a sex swing or something even more kinky. Or Louis will have a coffee table that’s also a foosball table.

Who chose the bedding in their room - Louis. Duvet cover with some sort of pun or inside joke.

What does their house smell like: Weed and Cookies.

Who packs/unloads the dishwasher: Definitely Harry

What does the Christmas tree look like: a real tree, filled with mismatched decorations from home and random decorations they have picked up over the years

After all these years, what do they buy each other for Christmas: Lego. they give lots of little thoughtful gifts throughout the year, but Christmas is for Lego

What are the saved as in each others phone: some code name, idk, don’t think they’d use real names

The Christmas tree. 🥹🥹🥹🥹 Not some perfectly decorated monstrosity—a real family tree.

blissful ignorance

synopsis: Grey's Anatomy is not a show that is praised for its medical accuracy. Although some cases are better than others, this show is just downright frustrating to the trained eyes. aka: 141 boys really appreciate their Doc and love to entertain their many rants.

warnings: sfw but nsfw jokes, fluff, platonic reader but they're close with Gaz & Soap, Grey's Anatomy, medical gore(?)

a/n: i genuinely hate Grey's Anatomy so much, I too, have not watched a single episode. Sorry for those who love this show, but I just can't watch it without being upset at its inaccuracies. So if I get any show things wrong, my bad guys.

Being a medic meant there was a lot of time in between saving 20 men and women in an hour to having nothing to do but count how many flushes you have in the storage room. But when the time hits, there's never enough of it.

But you managed, you always did, because being a head medic meant that you had to be 3 things; quick, efficient, and decisive. You were a master of these values and elements, which made you the best medical personnel this task force had ever seen. From being your field medic's eyes to managing medevacs when they land in your medical bay.

Today was different, however, because well...there was no one hurt. It was as if God had answered your prayers and given you the chance to clock out at 4 pm instead of 4 am.

Trudging over to the rec room, the boys were also left to their own devices for the rest of the night. Soap laid on the cracking leather couch with his feet up on the small wooden coffee table with Gaz on the floor by his feet, a plate of food in his hand. Price and Ghost were on their bets again as the foosball table shook underneath their intensity and focus for 50 bucks.

"What're you two watching?" You smiled as you sat down on the couch with them, propping your legs onto Soap's lap.

Gaz took a piece of a salty cracker and reached up behind him for you. You reach forwards and bite it out of his hand. "We're watching Grey's Anatomy, apparently it's the only thing on right now."

You scoffed as you chewed, throwing your head back onto the leather armrest. "Fucking hate this show, it's so damn stupid."

Soap's hand laid onto your leg as he rubbed it up and down in instinct. "C'mon Doc, it can't be that bad...I mean it's a medical show that's been going on longer than you've been alive probably."

You kicked him in his chest lightly, but enough to get your point across. "I've never watched a damn episode but I can tell you, no fucking intern can do surgery in any hospital! It's just wrong and very risky!"

On the tv, you can hear some of the main characters complain about how their colleagues are stitching wrong. At first, you started to focus on the stitching technique to nitpick but soon it dawned on you that these interns were stitching up their fellow intern's shoulder. You gasped and screamed, "Oh my god?! She did that on purpose?!"

"Sounds like something you'd do, Doc," Ghost's voice boomed over to the three of you as he slaps 50 bucks into Price's palm. Price snorts and pats him on the back as they leaned over the couch to watch with you.

You took offense to his comment and crossed your arms and huffed. "Not at all, I love my techs but I love me more. This is just weird..."

Price scoffed and stood up straight from his place on the backside of the couch. "You do you, Kiddo, but you do seem the type to do that."

You groaned and threw your head back dramatically, giving up on this show. "I had a good day today and this show ruined it! I mean come on, who in their right mind would let INTERNS perform life-threatening surgery on them?"

Price looked at Ghost, they shared a look, and both shook their heads as they went back to their competition. Gaz screamed as blood squirted out in a surgery scene and you hit him on the head to shut him up like a snooze button. "I don't even know what they hit, they probably killed that woman from holding a scalpel like that. Might as well use a switchblade and stab randomly at her."

Johnny stretched himself out and grunted as he draped his arms over the edge of the couch. "Go on, Bonnie, you tell them."

"I'm just saying, why doesn't she just get an actual surgeon?" You grumbled and screamed.

Gaz laid his head back and you rubbed his head. "It's late at night, but it's a big hospital and it's an emergency. It's not hard to find an on-call surgeon that can do a simple appendectomy instead of risking your life just because 'I like my friends.' Stupid, stupid girl!"

Soap giggles with a hand over his mouth as he sees your hand grip Gaz's head and tug it back in forth. Gaz's eyes filled with tears as the pain radiates through his head. "Doc, stop..." He says quietly.

"Yeah, Doc, take a chill pill," Soap laughs as Gaz grasps your wrist and peels your fingers from his skull.

You screamed out in frustration as the one thing that EVERYONE should know, is done wrong in a medical show: CPR. You jump from your seat and tackle Soap out of his spot as you tumble on the ground. Gaz leaps from his spot too and tries to break the two of you away from each other as it quickly turns into a sparring-roughhousing match. Ghost and Price turn over from their game of darts and sigh.

"Johnny, get off of them, by God!" Ghost grumbles as he throws a dart into the 25-ring. Price growled as he slides Ghost a 20.

The two of you stop and you pretend to have collapsed and died as you reach out to Ghost, "Ghost...just know..." you cough, "That I...I...left the oven on..." You flop over and die.

Johnny springs into action as Gaz fakes sobs over your passing, tears forming surprisingly quickly as you feel them fall on your cheek. "No, no! Doc, stay with me here!" Johnny puts his hands over your sternum and prepares to do really bad chest compressions on you. "Don't worry Doc, I saw this on Grey's Anatomy!"

"GET OFF ME YOU SHIT FUCKER!"

I work for insane people

So… I started work a few months ago and...

I keep being impressed with corporations lowering my expectations.

Like. EVERY time I think "Surely, this is as incompetent as it gets".

The boss is nice, the workers are nice, every PERSON is great so far. But the firm is just… fucked in ways that makes it hard to not scream with laughter.

It is like working in the ministry of silly walks by Monty Python. Insane things are happening, and everyone just acts like it is normal.

A dude was stating to someone else near me, that despite the costumers saying they did not want it, his code that crashed the application once a day, was NECESSARY, because writing code without memory leaks in C is basically impossible. Like… I just have all these small moments of insanity. Completely disconnected from each-other

My boss showing me and the other 3 new hires the coffee room, where a big screen proudly shows that not a single software product have 100% code coverage… as in, not a single person in this entire building filled with software people knows how code coverage works. He then points out an empty bowl, and declares "Twice a week, there is a fruit event". By which he means, fresh fruit is provided, and people can just grab some…. just said by a alien who is pretending to be human. Badly.

He then explained that the 2 coffee machines in here makes bad coffee. He then takes us to the copy room, showing us that THIS is where the GOOD coffee machine is. Which only takes coffee beans from a SPECIFIC vendor (Is… is the coffee machine… sponsored????)

He briefly pets the Foosball table (Again, in the copy room), which is jammed up against the wall so you can only reach the controls on one side ( Because, again, it is a copy room, and there is not enough space for it ) and he exclaims "Ahhhh… Not enough people are using this"

Suggesting, that he is trying to promote the little known sport "Single-player Foosball">

I start setting up my work PC and... Whenever any of the developers in this place wants to install things on their PC's, including compilers and testing frameworks, they have to either use the "SOFTWARE CENTER" program, which installs it FOR you… or in 10% of the cases, fails, without giving you any context for why it did that, and no tools for fixing it. Is it missing a dependency? Not working with the OS? Who knows!

Some programs cannot be installed like this though, because the SOFTWARE CENTER is not updated a lot. And when you want to install something the normal way… You get a popup, where you must provide a written explanation for why you need to have temporary admin rights to your own dang PC … you then submit that, and your screen will then be watched remotely by a worker from India, for a varied amount of time you are not told…

Or at least it says so. Maybe the Indian dude watching me is just an empty threat. Who knows. But they get to see me running absolutely… BONKERS .bat files

Like, I CHECKED them, and a good 80% of them calls a Power-Shell script in the folder above it, called "YES_OR_NO.ps1" which opens a windows 95 window informing you that DURING INSTALLATION YOU MAY NOT USE THE KEYBOARD OR MOUSE, AS IT MAY DISTURB THE SCRIPT THAT WILL INSTALL THE PROGRAM. A normal installation wizard then runs, except the developers are not trusted to click the buttons, and instead the script does it for you by moving and clicking the mouse.

All of this is documented. In markdown like reasonable people? Of course not! It is in ENHANCED markdown. Which is markdown in the same way javascript is java.

ENHANCED markdown requires browser and visual studio code extensions to be read. Completely missing the point of markdown being readable both raw and encoded… And sometimes word documents And sometimes power-point presentations left next to another bat file… this one calling the .exe file… right next to it…. I later found out is because the idea USED to be that all documentation MUST be made with Microsoft office tools.

I had to read the code of conduct today. And it was actually very well written.

I then watched a interactive animation telling me about the code of conduct… which it not only got a fact wrong about, it also broke it once.

I repeat. The introductory course in the code of conduct… broke the code of conduct'

After I watched that, and read the safety material…. which literally just said "Wear safety boots in the production floor"… I was then show the testing room.

I was lead to a different building, saying hello to the Vice CEO who was walking the other way, we walk into the production floor, ignored the fact that none of us have safety boots on, and walks into a room, with a 3*2 meter wide machine, several meters tall.

We edge around it, quietly hoping no one turns it on, since we would get slammed by it if they did, and walk down some stairs into the basement. Casually walk over a small river in the floor from a pipe that is leaking… what I really hope is water, and over to a shelf rack FILLED with the most MacGyver shit you ever did see.

Including, but not limited to, the 3D printed plastic block, with a piston that repeatedly smacking half a aluminum nameplate over the device it is testing. You see, it is a capacitance button, and it is testing it by simulating a human finger pressing it many thousands of times, a saws off antenna which is the end of a cable that is attached to it via a nice thick bolt, so it can send fake signals into it.

And of course the 24 volt, 5 amp system that is turning a circuit board on and off again, until it will crack.

We walk back out, remembering to step over the small river, which never even got a comment, and walk back to my department It is SO great. It is like working in the ministry of silly walks by Monty Python Like… Do I think I can bring value to this company? Like, making it better and more efficient? Yes. It would be hard not to!

And his is the largest pump manufacturer in the world! A super serious company with 4 billion dollars of revenue a year. And it is just… a NUTHOUSE

Like… NEVER believe the myth that corporations are competent.

I so get having a tough day---I'm having a tough decade tbh, and fandom distractions really do help tremendously! Hoping so much that tomorrow is better!!! A few questions: 1. How would you rank all eight T70sS seasons from your favorite to your least favorite? 2. Do you see Donna and Jackie as realistically remaining close friends in adulthood despite/because of (?!) their differences? 3. What are the top 5-7 things (not counting physical intimacy) that Donna and Eric would like doing together?

Thank you for your kind words! Sending hugs to you 🤗

Season Rankings:

1

3

2

5

4

6

7

8

Seven would be my least favorite if s8 did exist. By the time 7 came around, I was actually tired of the show. I felt like it had run its course, and the storylines weren’t interesting to me. I’ll try to watch the whole thing on this re-watch though

Donna and Jackie remaining friends?:

Discounting season 8, yes. I think they would remain friends, even if there was like a five, six, seven year gap they don’t speak. Let’s say s8 happens, everyone is hurt and moves away and falls out of touch with one another. Then Donna and Jackie see each other again— like at a super market Or restaurant or whatever— and they get to talking. Donna apologizes profusely, stating she was lost without Eric, but that it doesn’t excuse her behavior. Jackie admits she lost herself that year too, and she hasn’t had another friendship that means as much to her as Donna’s did. So they start over. Go out once a month, reconnect. Maybe with Donna in her life, Jackie wouldn’t keep marrying and divorcing Kelso

Top Five Things Formciotti likes doing together:

They like going to movies

Play fighting 🙂

Basketball/other sports. Donna usually beats Eric, but she will never be able to beat him at Foosball

Getting out of the house/hiding from the world after hectic days. Maybe driving somewhere and just looking at the stars

And finally, simply just being with each other. They could be dead tired, at the breakfast table, drinking coffee silently, and be okay with that. They don’t need to do anything fancy

[pilvimarja]

I was tagged by @ohnoitsthebat, thank you!

RULES: Post the first paragraph of your last 10 fics posted to AO3. (Sort by date posted.) If you have less than 10 fics posted, post what you have.

(I edited the game a little to include the first paragraph instead of a single line)

Losing My Religion (Rooster/Maverick)

Bradley tossed his comic aside and rushed to the window at the familiar sound of a revving bike engine. Mav was seated on his Kawasaki, the thick bulk of his thighs spread wide around the leather seat. It was a muggy evening, but he had his favorite leather jacket on, his hair freshly gelled. Like he had a date.

Something Extra (CTCU Ray Ferrier/Jason Willette)

Ray slung his backpack off his shoulder and pulled out a bottle of potable water from one of the pockets. He could almost see the lake behind the treeline, knew he'd be home by nightfall if he maintained a brisk and steady pace.

Afterwards (CTCU Ray Ferrier/Jason Willette)

Jason moved the razor against Ray's jawline with meticulous care. He'd been on a two-week trading trip, and the hair on his face had grown thick. Most of the bristles were as dark as the hair on his head, but the noon sun revealed a few spots of gray on his chin, reminding Jason of the years that stretched between them. Jason had never even held a razor before the Invasion, but the nerves in Ray's dominant hand were permanently damaged from a piece of shrapnel, making anything that required careful precision a challenge.

Claimed (Rooster/Maverick)

“Another one?” Maverick sputtered.

“That’s right.” Harold gave the weekend edition of Buck Holler Herald in his hands an angry rustle. “It was two, this time, and they’re gettin’ closer to our fields." He spread the newspaper on the kitchen table and poked his finger against a black-and-white picture of a mutilated cow. "Won’t be long till it’s our cows that get gutted.”

Mav had barely climbed out of his coffin, but he could tell it was going to be a long night if the old man was this worked up before he’d had his evening blood.

Layers (Rooster/Maverick)

Bradley paced around the Ready Room, back and forth between the foosball table and a wall full of monochrome pictures. His fellow aviators had gone back to the barracks after the initial shock from the accident had settled, but Bradley didn't want company. He knew his temper was on a hair-trigger, and another scuffle with Hangman would send him packing.

Atonement (Rooster/Maverick)

Mav peeked into the kitchen, taking in the cozy scene of Bradley at the breakfast table and Carole in her yellow housecoat, flitting around with a cup of coffee in one hand and a box of cereal in the other. It felt a little surreal after months of Navy canteens and crowded mess halls, almost like he’d stepped into a Norman Rockwell painting.

Soothe (Rooster/Maverick)

The A/C was cranked to the highest setting, but the air in the car was pungent with teenage boy sweat and something much more intimate. A private thing that wasn’t meant for Mav’s nose. He did his best to breathe through his mouth, but it was almost worse because he could  taste  every fresh burst of slick as Bradley squirmed in the passenger seat, his hands clutched around the crotch of his baggy jeans.

Take These Broken Wings (Rooster/Maverick)

It was only day two of training for a mission Bradley wasn’t even going to fly, and things were spiraling out of control. Literally. He could still see the bottom of the canyon every time he closed his eyes, a frantic order to pull up, pull up! ringing in his ears over the chatter in the bar. It was so stupid. The most reckless thing he’d done since he’d wrapped his first car around a lamppost almost two decades ago. He'd spent years doing things by-the-book, conservative in the air, stable and reliable, a real team player. Until today. And he didn't even have the excuse of being drunk and high on shitty weed. But the same rage that had earned him a faceful of scars at eighteen now drove him to pull the kind of shit you'd expect to see from someone like Hangman.

Slow Ride (Johnny/Daniel)

“That’s it, you’re doing good, Johnny. So good.”

Johnny preened at the compliment, teetering on the edge of pleasure and a growing urge to pull his hands free where they were tied behind the back of the chair. Daniel was good at knots, but the obi around his wrists wasn’t too tight. He could slip away if he wanted to. He bit the soft inside of his cheek and continued to bear it, Daniel's hand on his dick an ebb and flow of too much and not enough.

Domestica (Rooster/Maverick)

Bradley wiped his palm across the fogged up mirror and leaned in to study his reflection. The scarring from the mission last year had faded, but he couldn't really see a difference between thirty-five and thirty-six. Maybe a couple of extra pounds on his cheeks, but his time on shore was almost up and he was going to enjoy his beer and burgers while he could.

NEW POST! ✨ A (Somewhat) Comprehensive List of Fun Job Perks that Won’t Pay Your Rent ✨ Link in bio 👆 and in the comments 👇 babies. Here’s an excerpt: "If you’ve ever applied to a job, you’ve seen it: the list of ~*fun job perks*~ at the end of a job description, meant to entice would-be employees with grand promises of free coffee in the break room and foosball tables! Who wouldn’t want a discounted monthly membership to the fancy yoga studio, or massage chairs in the lobby, or an automatic vacation day on your birthday??? ME, that’s who. I righteously spit in the face of your fun job perks! And you should too! Because no matter how much you might appreciate a monthly pizza day in the office… it’s not going to pay your rent. I am here today to call out fun job perks for what they are: infuriatingly meaningless bribes meant to distract us from a lack of humane compensation. And I brought backup." #personalfinance #benefits #jobsearch #jobhunt #jobperks https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqa12UwOVOC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I work in enterprise level IT support, when some company's servers start acting up, they call us. So, we're not like a call center your average Joe can just call when they got trouble with their laptop from 2007. We're 5 people with a handful of costumers to take care of, and those customers pay a lot of money for this.

And even though we're basically a call center... we're not monitored at all. We got a system that keeps track of who we talk to and for how long, but that's basically it. Nobody is looking over our shoulders, we got no quotas to fulfil, we get freshly ground coffee for free and the calls aren't even recorded. Hell, not even our working hours are tracked automatically, we manually put them into the system.

And while it gets pretty busy on some days... on other days we browse the internet all day or play matches on the FREAKING FOOSBALL TABLE management put in our room to keep us entertained.

Now compare that to your average minimum wage call center, where you get in trouble when your mouse stops moving for 5 minutes...
