Ok hear me out. God of War (jacksepticeye voice:Dad of Boy) AU.

Elias is Kratos, Logan is Atreus (David is calliope, which means he's dead 😳 dead as hell). Keegan is angrboda.

(Riley is Fenrir)

Not quite sure about the rest of the cast, that's on you babe

DAD OF BOY

Neptune and Kick can be Brock and Sindri respectively. Merrick is Tyr. And ykw would be funny? Rorke as Freya.

David being Calliope is sad as fuck I will not lie, oh my god. "Dead as hell" I got the point bro stop hammering it in 😭

Elias as Kratos lowkey funny as fuck tho given Kratos is known for killing gods in remarkably brutal ways and being very fucking angry, even if he's mellowed out more when he's older. (And even then, he still has his moments... Heimdall.) Though the idea of Elias being chill only after spending his youth kicking absolute ass is an idea I have entertained before. It's fun I will not lie. (Enter my fave, Paarthurnax "What is better: to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" and I know Kratos wasn't "born evil", (Unless you ask the Greek Gods....) he still had to overcome a lot to become the way he is today.)

What happens to Trump’s criminal and civil cases now that he’s been reelected | CNN Politics

Trump is scheduled to appear in a New York courtroom on November 26 to receive a sentence for his conviction earlier this year on 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment made during the 2016 campaign to adult-film star Stormy Daniels, who alleged a prior affair with the president-elect. (Trump denies the affair.)

So we're trying to get him into the house because they will be able to convince Trump and they still are trying to do it and Trump is starting to think he should be here and other people think like our son the idiot is trying to put him on the street to threaten him that's what he's up to he's a he's a moron so we're going after him hey we're going to take him down today we're going after the stock we're going to have this meeting and we're going to tear it out of his hands there's a lot of people who know how to do it and they are anxious to do it and need the airline and bja is one of them and they need it for their armies and to do actual work and this guy is running these cities and Trump is very small and bja is going to take him down

But this shows it too they're going to sentence him on the 26th and this idiot probably doesn't even want him in the hotel and we don't have any time for people who are that stupid

Thor Freya

Zues

It doesn't really work that well but you swore up and down the road it does now you're going to try and do something that doesn't work in any way at all and we're going to bury you you're such a jerk Trump

Hera and I want my name and I'm going to take it from you cuz he knew me as Jennifer Merrick and it's not your name and you're going to be dead this is going to be great

Olympus

Haha so I'm going to have to date you again what about Katia

Zues

I know the other room I'll go to the other room and yeah I want you to think I'm a skinny old lady you stupid a******

Jen

Hmmm

Zues what the hell did that mean no I'm not saying what you're thinking even though you're thinking that I was thinking what the hell does that mean you want to be a skinny old lady

You shut up now

Hera

[uncloseted]

WHERE in the world does Alo say "It's Diddy, you dick!" or something similar in gen 3? I think it's him talking to rich, I think he also says something like puff daddy, but I know it's a line somewhere in the series. It's one of my favorite lines but I cannot find it anywhere currently. Please help a girl out lol.

Are you sure it's Alo? In series 2, Chris says, "What do you think? Look, we've got electric lights. On and off. We've got luxury radiators. We've got, like, four plug sockets! I mean, imagine, who'd need that many? Like, Puff Daddy or someone." I'm not seeing the words "diddy", "daddy" or "puff" anywhere in the generation 3 transcripts that I have.

I think the interaction that you're talking about is this one: "We need somebody objective. A Malcolm McLaren or Brian Epstein." "Our P. Diddy." "Isn't it Puffy again?" "No, it's still Diddy." "No, I'm sure it's Puff Daddy." "It's Diddy, you dick." It comes from a movie called Modern Life Is Rubbish that Will Merrick (who plays Alo) and Freya Mavor (who plays Mini) are both in, which is probably why you thought it was from an episode of Skins.

He survives this crash no she doesn't either they had no seatbelts on and you can see them after and they look half decent but his face is broken and hers too the windshield is smashed and his blood that's beginning to gush all over them and they are declared clinically dead at the scene by the local hospital and they take them there and he dies as Mr and Mrs Merrick and the woman that was divorced from Trump was not Sarah it was Justin's wife and she's fine and she's trying to look like her to save herself. And they ran into this guy who they think is cheesman and it is who it is but they're the ones who did it so he tries to kill cheeseman but he does die and he does hand stuff over to our son and he loses the character and he loses the family Justin's wife is missing and she is going to be found on Mars where Tommy F brought her and Tommy f is not aware that she found things and he's amazed because it is a real story and he's seen part of it and wants the information and he's the one who knows about it and this is what gets Trump killed again and Sarah

Thor Freya

And it gets me killed too terrific though he says I go out the back I do get him back and he's a prick and he dies and I can't be him and I can't be president he goes through this whole thing with massive amounts of cancer is a stupid a****** and he's wrong the way he's treating people in US and the boy and it's terrible

Terry c

This is a lesson and the lesson is that we do not have to do what you want and we don't have to follow your plan and you can die in the future in the present from what you're doing Trump and this is proof too because Jen Merrick wants our son to have things and wants her self to be free more so from your name and you're likeness and this is a way to do it and they were fooling around with it and they were trying to go to court and have the name taken away but she didn't like it she liked the other idea and he said you came up with it and we go along with it and she says yeah you're helping and it's cheeseman so she's amazed and it's really nice

Thor Freya

Don't say stupid things to me but really it was fun you said my first jaguar and it really is nice and I'm going to really love this because he's got a lot of stuff I'm going to get a bunch of it and just his wife will if he retrieves her and he needs some of what he has his records and things and notes and he will be able to go get them

Jennifer M

Is the character too she's really my wife and I'm going to say that Jen is our daughter because she looks like us not like him what's crazy is she does look like us and she doesn't look like him and she looks a lot like us

Justin

I'm not dimwit you a****** and one of us you stupid prick he sees an idiot trumpsters imitating me. Okay proofs in the pudding but I want to talk about it you're so dumb I know you're making it up and s*** but please. It's going to be a rough time he says I'm going to enter a temporal vortex went together a whole bunch of s*** won't get done. It's probably true it's just like that movie yeah that movie that came out I can't remember the damn name of it it's with Will Smith yeah and it's kind of like Hanscom or some name like that where he's this drunken superhero. Yeah I remember that that's good.

Thor Freya

Yeah I know the name of the character you two suck but really that blows I knew about it no but now I do that really sucks they're wondering what the movie is about where it is and stuff like that it's kind of an indication but really these characters are going to go and he's going to get stuff finally we need him to have some so we can get out of there

Trump

Anyone else want to pitch in and die so we can move him out temporarily and tell me if your people are dying to you fool

Dan

Yeah imagine I'm black too and you're saying that dumb s*** to me but still it is stupid we need to move out of here temporarily
