The Curse

(A small continuation of @idiotwithanipad 's fic The Flight, set in her Gore Au, ft her oc Amy and mine Silver. All good things must come to an end....for a while).

Silver felt her way forward, letting out the smallest of giggles until the soundwaves ricochet back to her, informing her of the distance between where she stood and her target.

An image solidified in her vision of a girl only an inch shorter than her in a thick hoodie, holding something crumpled between her fingers.

"Ah. What a lovely, uh...leaf you have there, Poppet." Her daddy said, placatingly; "You can put that on your bedside table if you like. A nice little souvinere of your adventures today."

The muffled groan from Amy vibrated with frustration.

Silver finally reached to touch her elbow; "It's not a leaf! It's a Kit Kat! Hehehe."

She felt her friend turn to her, felt her muscles relax against her fingers, even somehow felt the smile. It wasn't just a dream, a fantasy, not if there was another person to validate it.

"A....Kit Kat, eh? Well I did suggest to your mum that we get a pet but she always claimed to be allergic to both cats and dogs-"

Both girls cut the Tudor off with their laughter, Amy's hand flying up to her lips to try to avoid gurgling liquid down Silver's top.

"I believes they be referring to a biscuit, cloaked one. My girl hath listed many a sweet with odd names she wishes for me to conjure in her senses." Mummy explained, throwing an ounce of mercy to the befuddled Humphrey.

Silver giggled again; "This one time I asked Mummy for Milky Ways and Galaxies. She waved her hands and next thing I knew, I was floating in space! Hahaha."

"Blimey." Humphrey blinked while his daughter bent forward in more contained laughter, clearly understanding the joke he was missing.

"Yes, yes, t'was most confuddling." The witch sighed, "We be more precise in our requests when dealins with the dark arts now, don't we, little'en?"

"Yes, Mummy." Silver answered, dutifully, before whispering again to Amy; "Still was fucking cool floating around in space though! I got to ride a comet! Hehehehe."

Humphrey could only watch his daughter's eyes shine like fireworks at the very idea. He looked down, to the girls hands, how they were still gripping onto each other. At first, he'd merely put it down to the witchling being blind and relying on touch. But Amy....she was holding just as tight onto Silver. Like a girl lost afloat at sea, clinging to a lifeline.

His unbeating heart began to twist, first with sadness. Sadness that he'd never seen his little girl look half as happy back in their rooms. Then envy. Envy at this blind urchin, that she had brought his Amy to smile and laugh when he could not. And then, most devastating of all, a revelation.

His own father had done everything to mould Humphrey's life to how he desired it to be. It hadn't mattered what reluctance the boy had or the misery of his daughter-in-law. They had been mere pawns in his own game, ready to be either promoted when reaching his desires, or sacrificed for letting him down.

Closing his eyes, he faced the image of the man, and silently declared that he could sod his fucking legacy.

Humphrey Bone would not become his father.

"You should stay."

The girls' laughter stopped immediately. The witch's smoke seemed to still around her. Even the beast let out a grunt of surprise.

"Mmmf?" Amy blinked at the man.

Humphrey forced a smile; "I said you should stay here, Amy. You...You're happy here. You're laughing. I...I want you to keep laughing, Poppet. There's nothing to make you laugh back in that house. There's only fear and hiding and your old dad being a useless worry who can't keep his own head on straight!"

"Cloaked one..." Mary began.

"Please." He faced the witch with as much bravery in his heart as when he'd held the door for Sophie to escape; "Just take her. Don't make me have to disown her so she's an orphan and you'll have no choice. It's what you do, isn't it? I see it now, really I do. You're not a monster. You're...Huh." He looked at Silver, fondly; "You're a mum."

Amy remained frozen still in her friend's grasp, staring at the Tudor, unsure of what to say, or perhaps not believing he had done a complete one eighty.

He was....letting her go? Just as she asked?

It wasn't quite what she had meant when she'd said those words. Letting go had meant leaving this place, the house and woods included. It meant going home to her old life, to her shitty mum that she still loved, to her friend Shan, to being...normal again.

That was before she'd learned about the wall. Before she'd properly met her new friend, before going on the craziest but wonderful adventure her mother's magic could create for them.

Silver disrupted her thoughts with a shrill cry of excitement, bouncing on her toes.

"Yes! Yes! That's perfect! See, Ames? You don't have to go back! You can stay out here with me, hahahaha!" The witchling squealed, "You can smell Kit Kats and Monster drinks every day! You can get to know all the imps and sprites and, oh, I didn't even introduce you to the vampires yet, did I?! And of course you can play with the dragons-."

"Little'en-." Mary tried to interject.

"I also know this guy Nik! He's a talking stick! I know that sounds weird but he's actually pretty funny and I dunno why, I just feel like you would get on with him-."

"Silver Ravenstar Guppy!"

The witchling immediately closed her mouth. Mummy never addressed her with her full name unless it was serious.

Mary sighed; "This not be your decision to make, darling girl."

"But...But Mummy, he's letting her go. And she wants to leave, that's how she found me, she was running away! Both times! Won't you take her in, Mummy?"

"Of course I woulds, sweet child, in the beat of mousies heart I woulds." The witch said with surprising endearment for such a grotesque wraith of a being; "But this be a choice between Amy and her father."

"Good, because Amy doesn't want to stay there anymore, do you Ames?" Silver looked to her friend, giving her wrist a squeeze.

Silence. Not so much as a gurgle.

Silver blinked; "Amy?"

"Mmmf." It was all the other teen could say. The one muffled syllable ringing with uncertainty.

She took Silver's hand and turned it, writing into her palm.

N..O...T.......S....U...R...E.

"Not sure? Why not? I don't understand....Didn't you have fun?"

Another groan along with a nod, her hands squeezing Silver's.

"Do you...want us to be friends?"

Yes. Of course, fucking yes.

She prodded her finger into the pale flesh again.

"Still...family..." Silver spoke the words she felt drawn into her. The laugh that followed rang with sadness and understanding; "Oh. Of course....You don't wanna leave your daddy."

Silver let her go.

"And I don't wanna leave you, Poppet. Never in a million years." Humphrey moved closer to Amy, voice breaking, "But Dads have to do the right thing for their children. I told myself I was keeping you inside for your own good and because of what your mum wanted but...Truth is, it was all about me. Because I was scared of losing the only family I had left. That was wrong of me, sweetheart. Please. I am so sorry."

Amy closed her eyes as tears began to fall. Why was this upsetting her so much? He wasn't her father. The wife he kept talking about wasn't her mum. And yet...all his words felt more real the more he spoke, the more time she spent in this world, his distorted reality mixing with her own until she struggled to remember which was real.

Was this how it had been for Silver? She had talked how she refused to believe she was the witch's daughter at first, whenever she sobered up from her high, how the witch's claim on her having been kidnapped made no sense, until eventually she accepted it. A dash of Stockholm syndrome. Was that what this was? How could she trust anything she was feeling, including the pull of affection for this man that her heart so desperately wanted to call Dad?

Humphrey reached out to stroke the top of her head.

"Go with them, Poppet. The witch and her beast will do a better job at protecting you from the guards than I could. Don't worry about Mum, I'll send for you once she's back. If she's cross, I'll take the brunt of it. And you'll get to have a best friend with you. The sister that me and your mum should have given you." He tried to encourage, though it was clearly torture for him to do so.

The conflicted teenager leaned into his paternal touch, suddenly desperate for the fatherly affection she'd never experienced in life.

Glancing over to the witch and the feral man, she didn't see any desire for familial care in either of them. They both seemed indifferent to her, willing to tolerate her, maybe even be civil and polite, but the witch had clearly given most of what remained of her heart over to loving Silver. And the ancient creature...she could relate to how he closed himself off and acted scary to guard himself, but she was unsure if he'd truly care for her.

But then there was Silver. Silver, who was still looking unfocused in her direction, buzzing with hope and anticipation that Amy would agree to stay. The temptation was definitely there. To be free to have this land to roam instead of the house where there's so many to avoid. To be able to live in a fantasy land and ride dragons and sniff her beloved Monster. To have a best friend always at her side...

Why did it have to be an 'either or' situation? Why couldn't she-?

Silver's knees suddenly gave way and she crumpled to the floor.

"Mff?!" Amy's eyes widened as she reached for her friend.

"Child? You all right?!" Humphrey stepped forward.

Silver pushed herself to sit upright; "Don't worry, Mr. Lord Amy's dad, I....I'm fi.....Ahh."

The girl stretched her arms as she let out one of the biggest yawns Amy had ever seen.

Mary tutted as she moved towards her child; "Darling girl, did yous forget what the hour be?"

Silver frowned and rubbed at her eyes.

"Wha-? No, I...."

She looked to her mother, who was pointing to the sky, to the shades of pink and light blue staining image of night. But it was the sound of the birds performing their morning chorus that informed her.

"Oh....Hehehehe....Shit."

Her head rolled forward, looking as though it was too heavy for her to keep up.

Humphrey frowned with concern, instinct compelling him to ignore everything he said before and put his arm around Amy.

"What's this? What's happening?" He asked.

"Mmmf?" Amy groaned and then signed, hoping that the other adults, not just Humphrey could understand.

Is she okay?

"Do not despair, either of ye. T'is my little girl's affliction. I take it you did not tell your friend of the curse, sweetling?" Mary asked, stroking her daughter's hair as the girl knelt at her feet.

Silver weakly shook her head; "No, Mummy...D-idn't wanna spoil it..."

Yawning again, she leant against her mother's tattered skirt, struggling to keep her eyes open.

"Curse? What's this about a curse?!"

By the sound of the panic in Humphrey's voice, he was ready to completely go back on his 'sacrifice'.

"Calm yeself, cloaked one. It be no danger to you or your little'en." The witch reassured, "My Silver was born into this world with this bane. Did ye not wonder why she only graces the field with her melodic singing once per month? The rest of the time, she sleeps soundly beneath the waxing and waning moon. Only when the lunar light shines full doth she rise, for three nights and two days."

Silver huffed and managed to look up towards Amy.

"Sucks arse, right? Basically m'gonna go into a coma for the next four weeks. Hehehehe." She snickered.

At Amy's mumble of concern, Silver felt a surge of energy and reached out to her friend.

"Hey, hey, it's fine, Ames, honest! I have the most kickass dreams and....basically get to do all that cool stuff we did tonight but in my head. Won't be as fun without you there but....maybe you can find me when you go to sleep each night, hehehehe? Or....maybe we can do it again when I wake up next month? If...if you like..."

The surge didn't last long, with Silver nearly falling forward onto her face. She was saved by the beast man rushing forward and lifting her up, manoeuvring her onto his back and gripping her arms around his neck.

Once upon a time, his Mistress would have had to command him to do this for the cub. Now it's as natural as breathing.

Silver giggles and nuzzles into his mane; "Good pillow. Thank you, Fluff."

The witch continued to stroke Silver's hair.

"Doth this change your decision, girl?" She asked Amy; "Or yours, cloaked one? Do not misunderstand, if you both truly desire to part ways and for Amy to live with us, she will be most cared for. But I have not the strength to fill her head with jovial fantasies every day. It can be a very dark and lonely life here amongst the woods with eyes such as ours, eyes unable to avoid the bleakness. And my darling girl, your friend, shall be silent and sleeping nearly all the time, 'cept those precious five and fifty hours she returns to us..."

"Ah." Humphrey's response seemed to say enough.

He was much less keen to abandon his daughter to the witch if it meant her friend would hardly be awake to stay with her.

"Ah indeed, cloaked one." Mary manages a smile. She gazes at Amy, reaching out a tendril of smoke to stroke her cheek; "Forgive me, dear girl. I was jealous to begin with, when my daughter did desire to spend time with thee. Do you gets why now? For but a short time each month do I spend with my darling girl....and, like a greedy fool, I dids not wish to sacrifice any of that for her to be happy with another..."

A sleepy Silver reached out to grip the witch's bony hand; "Silly Mummy, hehehehe."

"Yes, little'en. Silly Mummy." Mary lightly tickled Silver under her chin.

Humphrey squeezed Amy's shoulder.

"It's...still up to you, Poppet." He said, swallowing that resurgence of fear; "It doesn't change how miserable you were with me. You might be happier here with the wi...Uh, with Silver's mum and their....pet?"

The beast man growled.

"Sorry! Sorry, I meant...friend." Humphrey corrected.

Amy huffed through her nose.

She walked up to Silver, resting on the feral man's back, ready to nod off at any moment.

Gently, she took her hand, the creature barely reacting to the intrusion on his charge.

"Gotta...stay....He's...all...alone....Needs...me." Silver read, weakly, then smiled; "Yeah. That makes sense....He seems like a good daddy. Hehehe..." Even her compulsive laughter was starting to quieten before she yawned again; "Find K-Kitty...She's in a room close to you...S'just as lonely as us. She...needs a friend as cool as you, Fizzy Girl...."

Amy smiled and took her palm again, prodding lightly.

"Dragon...race...next...month?" Silver's eyes sparked and she grinned; "F-fuck yeah! W-won't....miss it...."

Her arm went limp, hanging uselessly over the beast's shoulder.

The lightest snoring sound against his mane told them all she was gone. For now.

Amy frowned, giving her friend the slightest nudge to the forehead. Silver didn't so much as stir.

"It be all right, child. Is learned to no longer fear for my girl. She only rests." With a wave of her hand, the witch summoned a cloud of smoke and harmless sparks to lift Silver off the creature's back and carry her in mid air.

Humphrey stared in awe at the teenager hovering peacefully, skirt and overshirt wafting beneath her, a contented smile on her pale and bleeding face.

Amy tried to shake off the unease and disturbance she felt seeing the first true friend she'd made now trapped in sleep for a whole month. She insisted she was fine and that she would have her dreams but...fuck. There was a horror to such a fate that couldn't be avoided.

And then there was her last words. Kitty. Who the fuck was Kitty? Should she ask the grown ups or could she trust them not to gaslight her?

It was frustrating to think she'd have to wait four weeks to speak to Silver again, if she doesn't manage to find this girl on her own.

"I needs to tuck my daughter into her bed and see that she's comfy." The witch told them; "You are certain in your decision, young Amy?"

The teenager looked back to the Tudor. Then back to the witch.

She nodded.

Something close to a smile appeared on the witch's burned skull; "T'is settled then. If you wish to visit my girl at the next full moon...or ifs you desire a reprieve from indoors and your da permits...you is more than welcome." She looked to the beast; "Come, sweet ally. You knows the little'en doth love to cuddle thee for the first day she sleeps."

The creature grunted, sounding none too thrilled at the idea of being used as a teddy bear for the witch's child, but following regardless, accepting his fate. He gave Amy and Humphrey one last nod. They were both deemed safe in his view, no longer any threat to his Mistress or her....their cub.

Humphrey watched the witch disappear into the trees, her sleeping daughter floating at her side, the beast man skulking on his knuckles behind her. In the blink of an eye, a plume of smoke was all that remained of their presence there.

He laid a hand on Amy's shoulder and turned him to her.

"Are you....Are you sure, Poppet? You....You sure you wanna stay with your lame old man?" He sounded dumbfounded at the very idea.

It was rather adorable, causing Amy to smile. Her bulging eyes shone with that same joy he had seen Silver's jokes spark in her earlier.

Now for...him?!

She threw herself into him, wrapping her arms around his middle. Her nose ignored the blood on his front as she nestled into the fur lining of his cloak.

He felt her write the words into his chest.

I'm...sure...Dad.

Humphrey burst into tears.

a thailand squid - outsider club ft. you

london, its not even where i'm from, foriegn,

cobblestone roads, nightfall, I don't belong,

yet there you are, glowing like a shining star,

across the roads, a view, a sight for a century,

the girl who walks, umbrella wielding beauty,

walking effortless, her figure flooded by the rain,

who are you?, where did you come from?,

a mystery,

london, its not even where I live, uncultured,

no culture is good culture,

I across the street watching you, stunned, frozen,

apalled by every aspect of your features, body,

your mind is a cage, so is mine, lonely, sad,

wake me from this dream, feels surreal,

her umbrella covers her face, disposition,

covering the one chance I'll ever have,

a hello, a goodbye,

I want to walk up to you, rip the umbrella away,

see which character and story hides behind you,

know you, feel you, cherish your words, please,

who are you from which you came, please,

the woman with the umbrella, walking away,

the perfume scent, you leave traces,

the pain you feel, you left evidence,

and the emotions I feel its evident,

your emotions you feel, evident,

you walk a strut for the millennium, I'm proud,

I'm proud of you for being you, its beautiful,

to the woman walking with the umbrella, listen,

listen to my cadence, my words flowing, like,

time, big ben, timeless,

life is short and so is this poem, love is a lifetime,

a lifetime is what it feels like, I'm invisible,

you can't see me and never have, glass house,

I'm a glass house to you, your a beautiful star,

shooting across the sky like a comet,

even comets have a destination, galaxies,

her nails painted so elegantly, shining, reflecting,

glimmering nails, flowing hair, feminine medicine,

your a drug to my addict, my addict to my drug,

your a feminine fix that I'll never have, dreamer,

I can only express it through words, pathetic,

what a loser, losing the love game,

I'm an outsider, welcome to the club,

The Moon

The theme that I chose for my musical theme was the moon. Most people might view the moon as an object of science and a rock in the sky, but to me, the moon is respective of many emotions. The moon is a constant cycle of change. I feel as though this can represent the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. It symbolizes progression in time and the continuous phases of growth and closure. In my culture, the moon is heavily connected to feminine energy, understanding as nurturing and a guide offering direction. It serves as a beacon of light in the darkness and self-awareness. The moon has guided me in the right direction for my spiritual journey, and I admire its beauty.

Classical/Traditional

Clair de Lune (Studio Version)

"Clair de Lune" is a famous piano piece by Claude Debussy. It means moonlight in English. Clair de Lune can be described as a Fugue, a specialized counterpoint structure during the 17th and 18th centuries. The moonlight softens the darkness of the night and can shine the unknown aspects of romance, love, and passion. This classical piece has a way of evoking feelings of beauty, tranquility, and love that are captivated and protected under the moonlight. 

Rock

Eclipse (2023 Remaster) 

"Eclipse" is the closing track of the rock band Pink Floyd's iconic 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon. This song is my musical theme because I believe that the wording and lyrics describe an obscure part of our usual perceptions that ultimately open new insights and understanding. For example, for a brief moment, the moon is obscured by the sun. This song gives a sense of new beginnings or new perspectives, taking everything you know in your world and then suddenly getting a moment of reflection.

Rap/ Hip Hop

Kanye West - Moon (Lyrics) ft. Kid Cudi & Don Toliver

Kanye West has a song titled "The Moon" from his album "Late Registration." This song, for me, represents a want for change and to get away from current life but having a constant mindset that you can’t change. I believe that he is using the moon cycle as a representation of the ups and downs of life, like how the phases of waxing and waning can show the phases of light and darkness. It has a contrasting theme, like a battle of one’s mind.

Indie Folk

rises the moon

“Rises the Moon” is an indie folk song by Liana Flores. The song's beautiful melodies and harmonies give a sense of repetition. I feel this song represents a sense of hopefulness just as the moon rises after the darkness of night, conveying a moment of tranquility and clarity from life and your everyday activities.

Spanish Pop

Pídeme la Luna

“Pideme la Luna” is a Spanish pop song by Leo Dan. This song has an upbeat tempo and rhythm, but the context of the words is a straight contrast of the sounding of the sound. This song is a love song saying how this person loves them to the moon and back, and they would do anything for them, but if they asked them more than what they’re giving, that would damage them because I feel like they’re giving them enough. 

Musical Theatre  

No One Else

"No One Else" is a song from the musical "Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812" by Dave Malloy. The song features a haunting and captivating melody accompanied by a grand orchestra that emphasizes the romanticism and innocence of Natasha‘s character. It’s a song that shows a clearing of her unweaving love and expression, and the moonlight shines through her innocence and sincerity. She presented a beacon of light and hope to the navigator throughout her situation.

The Ultimate Psych Fic Rec List

Ft. 49 of the best Psych fics (imo) >>>

Four Floors Down, Use the Stairs in Case of Emergency by centipede

Shawn does something really stupid. Really stupid, really dangerous, and something that means he's really, really screwed. Which shouldn't surprise anyone.

Especially since no one knows where he is.

High Tide by LittleFairy78

It all started with a fight. Shawn leaves town for a few days, only to find his life cruelly changed upon his return. He tries to get to the bottom of what happened, but everybody else thinks he's just in denial. Shawn angst...

Fun in the Woods with Buzz McNabb by centipede

While searching for stolen bonds in the woods, Buzz McNabb wins babysitting duty for a certain psychic consultant for the SBPD. And Lassiter proves something he never meant to. As non-angsty as it gets because, seriously, this is Buzz we're talking about.

Judas In My Mind by PineappleHead

MacGyver/Psych crossover

Murdoc is looking for a new recruit for HIT. Shawn has all the necessary skills. Neither of them could foresee where their crossed paths would lead them.

"What have I become? Now that I've betrayed everyone I've ever loved, and pushed them all away? And I have been a slave to the Judas in my mind. Is there something left of me to save in the wreckage of my life? I'm becoming Judas in my mind..." -------Fozzy

What's The Story, Morning Glory? by Liviapenn

The first time Shawn ever kisses Gus it's goodbye.

Wednesday, March 3rd Of 2010 by lapsus_calami

March third of two thousand ten dawned much in the same way every day before it had. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and Gus and Shawn were an unbeatable detective duo. The day after, however, would dawn much differently.

Shawn And The Real(er) Psychics Of Santa Barbra by Beaconbaconbison

Shawn isn't a psychic. He's just some guy who got struck by lighting and woke up having visions about things he couldn't possibly know. That seems on par with the rest of his life. Right? He really. Really. Really isn't psychic. Even if these visions are helping solve a murder. He's just very observant. That's all.

like a comet pulled from orbit by torigates

Shawn is good at half-truths.

Born This Way by redwolffclaw

Henry Spencer has started to realize that something is different about his three year old son Shawn and will soon need to use all his detective skills to figure out how to raise his rambunctious prodigy.

Familiarity by sebviathan

AKA the four times Shawn and Lassiter met before they actually met, and when it finally came together.

How many hats? by Abby_Gal

After Shawn kills a man to protect his best friend, he can’t stop his overstimulated brain from making him watch the man falling to the ground again and again. Luckily the man who has helped train his brain as a kid is there to help him calm down.

Baby Steps by Vanya_Instance

Shawn and Gus were celebrating the opening of a new nightclub near Shawn’s apartment. The night was turning enjoyable, drinks were reasonably priced, the music was deafening but danceable and with a magnificent feat of wingwomanship, Shawn had found Gus a girl. A true miracle indeed.

Not to sound smug, but this had been a brilliant idea on Shawn’s part.

But then Shawn wakes up in an alley early the next morning, covered in cuts and bruises, miles away from the club and her apartment, with no memory as to how she got there.

For the first time Shawn finds herself on the other side of the thin blue line, not as a suspect, but as a victim.

And Shawn is scared.

And Shawn thinks she preferred being the suspect.

Little Murder in the Big Woods by Anonymous

A totally harmless lie gets Shawn involved with Gus' work retreat... and MURDER.

To be fair, he'd probably be getting a front row seat to a murder somewhere whether or not he decided to pose as Gus' live-in partner in order to spend a weekend camping trip distracting him from team-building exercises.

Shawn Spencer: The Ultimate Reference by sottovoce81

Shawn Spencer was the ultimate reference. He was the go-to guy for a quick reference when the Winchesters were in need of something.

Burton Guster Gets Salty by Emachinescat

“Run! Don’t look back!” That’s what Shawn says to Gus as they run for their lives from a killer with a gun. But Gus does look back – just in time to see his best friend go down with the crack of the pistol.

Shawn Spencer is Nobody's Agatha by huckleberryzenon

After the disaster that is Lindsay Leiken, the FBI decides it's time to begin psychological evaluations of all the psychics who consult with law enforcement, starting with one Shawn Spencer. Shawn's confident he'll pass with flying colors, but what if the danger isn't in getting found out, but the person administering the test?

Another thing they'll never talk about by rosey_angel

He’s decided it. This is going to happen. Everyone at school is talking about weddings because Casey McClintock's mom is getting married and ever since then he’s been over the moon. Because he decided. He’s going to marry Shawn Spencer.

Thinking over the secret moments in their past, Gus can't hide his feelings about or for Shawn any longer.

Psy vs. Psy in the Sky (And Right Back Down Again) by Emachinescat

After being taken hostage by fake psychic Lindsay Leikin, Shawn finds himself tied up and on an unplanned skydiving adventure.

Thanks For the Memories (Or Lack of Them) by EclipseWing

They tell you that your name is Shawn Spencer. They tell you that you are thirty-three and that you live in Santa Barbara, California.

They don't tell you that you're meant to be psychic.

Fro-Yo? More Like Fro-No! by Emachinescat

No matter how angry he was, Gus would never hurt his best friend - not intentionally, at least.

But the hard truth was that intentions wouldn’t matter if Shawn ended up frozen to death in some ditch in Canada. Either way, it would be Gus’s fault.

Either way, he would have killed his best friend.

how you try by disastermovie

Gus always knew Shawn would come back to Santa Barbara. He didn't know when or in what state, but he always knew that one day, he'd find his best friend back on his doorstep, grinning like nothing had changed. That's just how Shawn is. And Gus would welcome him back because that's just what their friendship is. No matter how many years pass, no matter what shenanigans Shawn drags him into, they'll always be best friends.

That doesn't mean he has any idea what to do with a baby.

The Joker and the King by Castlewood_Bard

Shawn and Gus in a royal AU. That's all you really need to know.

Two Dead Guys, a Girl, and a Psychic by moondragon23

Life is great for Shawn Spencer. He has a cool job, a smart, beautiful girlfriend, and gets to hang with his best friend all day. What more could a guy want? When he gets his next two cases, a dead chemistry professor and a girl looking for her father, it looks like business as usual. Too bad things never go that simply when Shawn is involved.

I've Heard It One Way by NephilimEQ

Shawn Spencer just got his appendix removed...and, at the same time, he's just found out that he has another problem. But he's not going to tell anyone. Until, one day, head detective Carlton Lassiter finds out his secret. Will this bring them closer together or ruin their friendship forever?

A Tale as Old as Vegas, Baby by burglebezzlement

Gus would like to believe there's no way Shawn's been hiding their secret Vegas marriage for five years. Unfortunately, the marriage license with their signatures on it and the photograph of the two of them smooching in front of Elvis say otherwise.

Shawn Spencer and the Fate of the Furious by huckleberryzenon

an AU to Season 4, Episode 9: "Shawn Takes a Shot in the Dark." Rollins has a few tricks up his sleeve after his arrest, post Shawn's dramatic car-hopping rescue.

Shafted by MusicalLuna1

Only Shawn could injure himself whilst searching a cordoned off building with a faction of S.B.P.D. officers. Shameless Shawn whumpage.

GHOST TOWN by Vindicata

What are the chances of a guy on a Norton motorcycle running into a guy in a ‘67 Impala as they each crisscross the country? Pretty damn high.

"You're awfully perky for a guy who was just freaking out a couple of minutes ago."

"And you're awfully bitchy for a guy who just had his life save by a courageous bystander with fantastic hair"

“Time to roast a ghost?”

“Couldn’t have said it better myself.”

Handlebars by Vindicata

Everyone thinks Shawn needs Gus and the SBPD to investigate.

They were wrong.

When Shawn works around the system to hide a case he’s working on, the secret might just blow up in his face... or show truly capable he is to the people who always underestimated him.

Guilt is a Funny Thing. Not in a “Haha” Way Though. by JenCM

“He called me, you know.” Henry choked out, distress obvious in his voice. “Kid…kid said he needed a ride. I told him to catch the bus.”

Carlton looked over, wondering if his exhausted eyes and ears were deceiving him. No, it wasn’t the fact that Henry Spencer was opening up to him, if he could call a random statement ‘opening up’ It wasn’t even the fact that the man looked him straight in the eye when he said it.

He scoffed with bitter amusement, “If it’s any consolation…” Carlton said with a sigh, “I told him he could walk home.”

Henry didn’t seem surprised at the revelation. He broke eye contact, his gaze falling back on Shawn, motionless in the hospital bed.

“Guess it goes to show that the kid still doesn’t listen to me.”

The only sound that followed was the hissing of the ventilation machine, and the beeping of the monitors. Nothing else needed to be said.

When Shawn ends up in a completely preventable situation that leaves him worse for wear, his father and Lassiter take a one-way trip to Guiltina while Gus tries to sell a ‘slightly used’ Lazy Boy and Juliet is just caught in the middle of the mess.

Phone Tag by windscryer

A demon hunter and a fake psychic walk into a bar . . . oh wait, that was the LAST story. This is what happens after.

A series of episode tags for both Psych and Supernatural continuing the adventures of Shawn and Dean and Sam (and eventually Gus and the others too, maybe).

How Much is that Body in the Window? by ZedPM, DinerGuy

It started as a vacation in New York City for our favorite psychic and his best friend, but when the duo stumbles upon a body (literally) they’ll need to lend a hand to Castle and the rest of the gang to solve the case before they head back to California.

A Bitter Pill by Psychrulz

Everyone knows Shawn has a tendency to get distracted. When he misses a clue and a murderer almost gets away, Chief Vick has had enough. She orders Shawn to get help and fix the problem- or else. Naturally, nothing with Shawn is ever that simple. When the fix turns out to be worse than the problem, the lives of his entire team are put in danger.

The Tangled Web by Collegekid06

Who tried to kill Shawn?

Someone cut the brakes on Shawn's bike. Now he's in a coma, and Henry, Jules, Lassiter and Gus are trying to find out who did it.

We All Go A Little Crazy Sometimes.... by Collegekid06

Shawn voluntarily commits himself to a mental institution.

How will Henry react?

How will Gus react?

And will the doctors ever let him go?

My Dinner In Hell: Or, How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love A Good Steak by Collegekid06

Shawn.

Lassie.

Henry.

Dinner...

Need I say more?

The Longest Day by LittleFairy

Shawn knows it's technically not really his fault. Lassiter thinks differently. Emphatically so.

But they have to make the best of the situation together, no matter who is to blame. Because the bad guys are on their way to Mexico, the other bad guys are after them, they're in the middle of nowhere, and somehow they have ended up...cuffed together.

It's just one of those days.

Shawn and the Friendly Neighborhood Stalker by laytoncolt

It's another case that no one else believes a case, and Shawn would be figuring it all out a lot quicker if didn't have to deal with a break-in and a stalker, that may or may not be related.

The Dah Ling Store It Yourself by Nixa Jane

The bad news is that one of Lassiter's highest profile arrests has just escaped from prison. The worse news is that his best hope of tracking him down is a sleep-deprived Shawn Spencer.

The Pharmaceutical Psychic by Tardisgater

Being captured by a mad scientist is almost expected by this point. The mad scientist's experiments actually working is a whole 'nother thing. It's time to shake up the status quo.

You Have the Right to Remain...Dead by MusicalLuna

When an officer is murdered late one night while on duty, Karen forbids Shawn from getting involved, afraid he won't take the case as seriously as he should.

But since when has a little thing like being banned from a case stopped Shawn Spencer?

I'm Okay by light at last

The day that Shawn is supposed to graduate is the first time he manages to actually fool his dad. It will remain one of few.

Identification by veggiewoppa

Hitchhiking in the rain = bad idea

Getting a ride from a homical maniac = worse idea

Stopping for the night in a motel full of potential victims = Worst idea in the history of bad ideas

The Boy in Blue by Collegekid06

Shawn's nightmares all come true when he finally ends up at the police academy...and it's not by choice.

The Evidence Lock-Up by InsaneTrollLogic

All contents part of case 10329QXT—The Disappearance of Shawn H. Spencer. Property of the Santa Barbra Police Department.

Bouncing Around by PurpleMoon3

Cas finds God.

Note: I tossed around for a while deciding whether to include this because I had no idea what was happening in it 99% of the time, but it made such a strong impression that it would be criminal not to

Aquatic Equestrianism by trascendenza

The one where they're mermen, because clearly my brain is a weird place. "You are outta your damn mind if you think that dolphin wants to be ridden."

The Pilot of My Roflcopter by trascendenza

The one where Shawn talks like a lolcat to seduce Gus.

Molasses in January by trascendenza

The one where they're, um, snails.

DIVINA COMMEDIA

ft. sakuma rei

© tokusaatsus 2022

warnings: biblical references, religious imagery + themes, mentions of blood + death 

Sometimes, Rei can’t believe he’s lucky enough to call you his.

It seems like a dream, at times. This could not possibly be real, that he lives in a world where you would deign to bestow your affections upon him.

When you smile, you’re smiling at him. When you reach out, you’re reaching for him.

Skin brushes skin, and Rei aches.

You two are on opposite ends of the spectrum. Where he is dark, the demon king of Hell, dragging all those poor souls down to his kingdom for torment, you are light. You don’t shine as bright as some people he knows–comparable to suns they might be–but you glow all the same.

A steady, pulsing warmth. Like that of a guiding star–Polaris, the North, and Rei knows he can always find his way home with you.

He fears, sometimes, that your light is not enough to withstand his darkness. That one day, he will inevitably end up tainting you, dragging you down to the depths with him.

(But is it really forced if you willingly descend down with him, hand in hand? Hades and Persephone, Death and Life, Yin and Yang. Balance. Two sides of the same coin, heads and tails–ouroboros; the snake devours itself–settled in the tall grass amidst the Garden of Eden, where Adam offers the apple to Eve.

You take the first bite.

It starts with you up on a pedestal, ends with a fall from grace, and the cycle continues as it always has.

Rei will love you all the same.)

He’s not certain what he’s done to deserve your love, but he’s not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. If God, or whatever higher being that exists, accidentally bestowed the blessing that is you upon him, he’s not going to be the one to correct this error. He’s not selfless enough to give up the best thing that’s ever happened to him.

And maybe he’ll be punished for it.

Maybe he’ll wake up to eternal torment. The real Purgatory. The seventh circle, as Dante said, the circle filled with sinners of the very worst kind. Hell in all its actuality, crusted over with a layer of frost. Where the sky is tainted black with ash and the chalk white of bone makes for the ground and the rivers run red with blood. Tempting, tempting.

Rei thinks. I don’t think I would mind.

Rei thinks. Not as much as I should.

Rei thinks. Not as long as I have you.

Love makes you stupid, certainly. He wouldn’t have had the guts to defy God–the Angels–Tenshouin?–but the sin of love has taken root in his heart. It’s an infection. He might have tempted you with the apple but your wings were the ones that shielded him as he fell, streaking through the sky like a comet, and, oh, did he fall.

Now your wings are torn to bits, smeared with black blood that drips from his lips as you stand on the altar. Justice, with your scales and your sword. At this tipping point, between the deadly sky and the infinite stars and the eyes, the eyes, their eyes–he prays before you. On his knees–will you be his salvation? His absolution? Your sword contains the fury of Heaven. It would be painful, but it would be certain.

Or will you destroy him? Take him apart? Clockwork heart and all. Tick tock tick tock tick tock.

You do neither.

You kneel down until you’re level with him. The dark ichor, it stains you. Rei wants to ask you to stop, stop, stop, but he cannot. He is helpless in the face of you. As he always is. You smile at him, oh so soft, fingers reaching out to cradle his face. Red colours your fingers–he is sticky with it, it clings to him, in scent, in taste–but you don’t pull away.

Rei, you say. Rei. 零. Zero. From nothingness he was born, and to that he shall return. The abyss gazes back, endless, and there you are with stars in your eyes. Rei.

I love you, Rei thinks. I love you, please, so let this be the end. I would not mind death, were it by your hands.

SAKUMA REI.

YOU WILL NOT DIE HERE.

NOT YET.

Rei, you say. “Rei.”

He hears you.

I love you. You say, “It’s time to wake up.”

Rei wakes up.

There is a predator living in his head and he is helpless to its whims. He thinks of fire and blood and marble floors and gold ateliers. He thinks of angels and he feels, simply put, exhausted. Is that normal?

His heart is jackrabbiting in his chest. He doesn’t think it’s supposed to do that. He’s certain he remembers Koga saying something along the lines of, Vampires don’t have hearts, do they?

“Good morning, sleeping beauty.” Your voice, lilting teasingly, is the first thing he hears, and it calms him. You’re perched on the bed opposite him, legs drawn up to your chest, looking entirely too comfortable on a bed that isn’t even yours. He wonders if it was Shiratori-kun who let you in, or Tenshouin. He thinks he doesn’t really care.

“Good morning, love.” He says, smiling softly, dream forgotten. It’s an expression he’s found himself wearing more often as of late, and it doesn’t even have to be forced. Just being around you is enough to lift his spirits.

“Rei…” Your smile drops and you squint at him. Rei swears he feels his heart stop for a second. (Koga’s annoying voice in his head again–Vampires, hearts, blah blah blah. He ignores it, as he usually does when Wanko starts his yapping. This tactic seems to work on both the real Koga and the one inside Rei’s head. Go figure.) “Are you okay?”

“Of course. Kukuku, this old man is thrilled you care enough to inquire into his wellbeing~”

“Well, Rei-jii-chan is really lucky that I like my men old~” You stick your tongue out with a wink and Rei feels himself flush at the implications.

But then again, he reflects as he watches you giggle to yourself, perhaps he does have a heart after all.

notes!

[strawberrylucv]

you make me feel like a fool, for you.

helloo, so sorry that this will be my first post after coming back from the dead.

✦ft. Childe (he's a cheater)

✦warnings: angst no comfort, cheating. mention of childes real name

"what the hell is this, ajax?"

"you weren't supposed to come home, you said you were leaving..."

"who the hell is that girl?" you fidget your hands. within your chest, you could feel your heart breaking into a million pieces. "who is she?" your eyebrows furrowed and you refuse to blink so because you could feel your eyes prick and the tears you were holding back, but never will you feel vulnerable from a cheater.

the girl on the bed covers herself with a blanket, facing away from you. you scoff and turn back to the man in front of you looking pathetic.

childe leaves you unanswered and you turn to exit your shared home but he stops you, he holds your hand and comes to you to wrap his arms around your waist. "y/n...it's just, i love you too-i just-"

"let go." you remove his arms, "don't touch me-"

trying your hardest to remove him from your side "don't touch me, please." you give up and childe's arms get tighter around your waist, he's hoping you don't leave. when did it start? you asked yourself

"i gave up my life for you. gave up everything for you." you covered your face with your hands. "i defended you from everyone else!" you face him and see all the marks made not by you, but now from someone else. he's not yours anymore, not anymore. "don't go. i'll do anything, just tell me how to make it better. tell me how to fix this." he tries to kiss you but you slap him.

"take me back to the past. take me back to before i knew you." this time you successfully remove his arms from your waist and walk towards the exit. when you slammed the door, your tears came flooding out. the more you walked farther away from the door, the more your body had forced you to run. running away from the place you once loved and wished to return home to, but that wasn't home anymore. that wasn't your home.

when your legs finally gave out, you look back to see that he was not there, not there chasing after you. he had already given up on your relationship, on you, on the "magical feeling" you had once called love.

the cold air from the very early morning makes your breath visible. your knees finally unbuckled and you drop down to the ground. the only comfort you had was yourself, so you hug your knees because this time there will be no one else to hug you when you feel broken.

you look up to find the stars shining more brightly than before, for some reason it was like the universe was mocking you, because it sent you a comet, maybe it was asking for your wish after witnessing everything that happened to you. it makes you reminisce about the time he brought you to his hometown to look at the moon, and how it greatly shined in snezhnaya.

who knew he was secretly looking at the stars instead.

Character Description Challenge (ft. The “A Cycle of Seals” Cast)

Last night, my friend @ayzrules​ (who is unrivaled in edits and graphic design, be sure to go check her out) posted a prompt challenge to our Discord server: “describe your character’s appearance without mentioning color” and/or “show us how your character looks through interaction rather than description”. I decided to go for broke and tackle both in one go, featuring a handful of the A Cycle of Seals cast. 

Since it turned out so well, I wanted to share it with you all, as I have undoubtedly starved this blog for original content.

___

“Oblige an old woman her shallow wish,” Old Gurtrune pleaded. Shining eyes stared unseeing at the ceiling. “Tell me: my grandchildren…what do they look like now?”

Oeden stopped dead in his tracks. Old Gurtrune, as the locals likened their ancient matriarch, had not beheld the beauty of Edenfell since before Oeden’s own birth. Would she remember hues? Would she remember shadows?

His mother had once tasked him with explaining color to a blind client, a failed venture for sure. Now, faced with the impossible once more, Oeden wondered: how do you describe what one has never seen?

So he did what had always worked: look to them, at them, for answers.

Royan stood tall - too tall, this tangle of giggling limbs - as a guard against the encroaching darkness. Warden steel hung off his body in ill-fitted lumps. He had yet to touch the sword at his hip. No soldier’s armor could disguise the pacifist inside it. He hugged his cloak of woven fur, the Godewine wolf enshrouding him in its everlasting protection, tight against the slightest wind. Wide eyes swept the horizon for signs of an imminent snowfall. No predator’s skin could disguise the pup beneath it.

But Oeden need not depict the armored mask this picturesque society plastered overtop of his body. Gurtrune would want to know the son inside, the wick within a silver suit awaiting illumination.

His hair shone like sunlight against the night sky. Each lock entangled itself amongst the stars, weaving constellations together in radiant array. They wove downwards, tugged the stars with them, until they met lips split in careless bliss. That practiced delight birthed dimples that pushed back his freckles like a fortress wall against scattered forces. Even Eirwyn’s Breath - her exhaled aurora reaching out overheard - held no candle to his light.

And then Eirys came, the match to his wick.

Slender fingers still sticky with balm embraced her brother’s iron-clad arm. One poked him in the nose. Another prodded at his hip. By the pout in her lip, Royan must have laughed off her compassion. What an unfortunate expectation - no one ever listened to Eirys until they needed salvation.

Whatever treatment she intended for her bruised sibling she now stuffed into the satchel at her hip. Oeden remembered every vial and vessel crammed therein, its contents spilled onto his bed as his medicine woman worked her ineffective magic. The faith healers of Norire, it seemed, allowed their princess to forgo the stuffy uniform in favor of more girlish garb so long as she retained their supplies. What did Eirys mind? Blood and earth dirtied the rim of her skirts either way. “Best to look beautiful,” she once assured him. “Better to keep the patients eyes away from their own bodies.”

She shook her head in reluctant surrender. Royan’s mane might have mingled amongst the stratosphere, but Eirys’ took a torch to the heavens. The waves of his hair bowed beneath her wild locks and the sky, too, succumbed. Each strand flowed like a comet crashing into orbit, a shooting star to wish upon.

How he wished to run his hands through it. How he wished no dying hands had.

Oeden understood the damage that marred their otherwise-unblemished facade. He had noted the twitch of Royan’s hand when the Timekeeper’s Seal stung his wrist, memorized the callouses Eirys had accrued from amputating her impaired protectors. The world and its Cycles had stolen perfection from them.

Yet, their brilliance never dimmed.

Together they - the only source of warmth in all Norire, in maybe all of Edenfell - turned towards Oeden and deigned to smile. One look set his cheeks to burning, his heart ablaze with affection. He needed these people. These renegades of resplendence. These arsonists in darkness.

One look and Oeden knew what Gurtrune needed - no, deserved - to hear.

“They are a light,” Oeden answered at last, “when the rest of us cannot see.”

FANFIC Sozin's Comet- Katara POV (zutara begins)

Hello there, I have always wanted to rewrite the story as I wish it would happen, I figure I share it for those Zatura shippers out there. This is the turning point for me, so this is when everything begins. Also, in my mind the gang is not the same age, add up three years to everyone. So Katara is 17, Zuko 19, Sokka 18, Suki 18, Azula 17, Aang and Toph 15.

.

The sun was already rising and I barely had some minutes of sleep. Today was going to be the day, by nightfall we either will be dead or we will have defeated the fire lord. I feel so tired and I haven't even fight yet. Where was Aang? Was he okay? He must be having a very hard time thinking he has to kill a man, he is very young, I know he is the avatar but it breaks my heart that he is facing such difficult choices alone.

"Katara, are you awake?" Toph whispered behind me. "I am" I answer letting out a breath, turning to face her.

"What are we supposed to do without Aang?" she asked, her arms behind her head, her empty eyes facing our tent's ceiling. We were given a tent by the Order of the White Lotus just for girls, Suki was here too but I heard her leave during the night, I am sure she is with Sokka, Zuko must be with his uncle.

"He will be back, but until then we must keep going. Let's hear what Iroh have to say before anything else, Zuko seems to think that he can help."

..............................................

"Today, destiny is our friend. I know it." General Iroh claimed I watch my brother one last time, Toph hugging him and Suki behind her. I nod, he nods back. I love you, brother.

Tears run down my cheeks as the Eel hound carry them away and Zuko pulls Appa's reins and we took to the sky.

The clouds seem to be tainted with blood, the air was hot and tick. Sweat running down the side of my face, I swallow a tick knot of feelings.

"What is going on thru your head?" Zuko asked to my left. I turn to face him, his golden eyes shining as never before, the air making his long hair move around his sharp edges.

I felt the need to touch his face, as I did once before…

"I cannot believe how many things have happened this year, here I am with you of all people, on Appa flying to your home to fight your sister." I said, turning my head to see the devastating landscape in front of us.

"I know, I cannot believe it either. So many things have happened. I never believed I would have the straight to fight the need to please my father or my sister, to be one of them, to be accepted." He said, I could feel his stare on me, but I didn't have the courage to face him, every time I think of his sister, I remember what happened in Ba Sing Se.

She KILLED Aang, every time I think in the possibility of what would have happened if I would have used the water of the Spirit Oasis to heal Zuko I want to vomit. Aang would be dead. Dead.

"You know," he said "I've been thinking of what happened in Lake Laogai when we were imprisoned…" that made me turn around to face him, but he wasn't looking at me. "I… I care about you Katara, I respect you, even before we were friends. You are very strong, fierce and at the same time one of the kindest persons I know. You have the power to hurt anyone you want, but you don't do it, even to those who deserve it." My heart was beating so fast, I could hear my blood rushing in my ears. He raised his head, and his eyes looked into mine. "I don't think that I would have been able to betray my uncle if you had been there, watching me do it. You are like a rock to me, a rock of my ideals, and it sounds stupid, and makes me weak I believe, but is the only way I can describe it."

I didn't know what to said so I said nothing, I don't know what he was implying. And honestly, I didn't have the courage to open that door right now.

"When I am with my father or my sister, something overcomes me…" he continues, his expression looks pain and I immediately want it to go away, "they are my family, I want them to love me, and I love them even though they do not deserve it. I don't know why, I want them so bad to accept me, and I believe that is the main reason of my behavior, the way to obtain that embrace, was getting back my honor, by getting my honor back, I would get the love of my family. That is why I asked you to help me, because even after everything that has happened, facing my sister is very hard for me, and having you there will make it way easier." He let out a very sad laugh "I sound like such an idiot."

I reached toward his hand and take it in mine, "You are not an idiot Zuko, you are a good person. Your heart is pure, that could only be a good thing."

He smiles at me, caressing my hand with his thumb. "You see, even after everything I did to you, you take my hand and make me feel better."

"Zuko…" I answered letting his hand on mine because it felt right, "I hated you, you know? I had so much anger after Lake Laogai, for your sister, for you. Aang died because of you, you betray ME, If I would have healed your scar, Aang will be long dead by now." I actually shiver at the thought. "Do you understand it?" I asked forcing all my feeling into my words, his eyes were hurt and he tried to let my hand go but I didn't let him, because I needed it. "Ang was really hurt, he took a long time to wake up, and every night I cry myself to sleep because it was my fault, and I talked to no one about it, it was eating me alive Zuko, everyone believed that I was sad, and I was, but more that everything, I felt guilt. I can't imagine how anyone stands me back then, I even punished my own father for my guilt. It was awful, I felt so useless... "

"I am sorry Katara, I don't know what to say I…"

"But you also understand me more than anyone else Zuko, you know who I am and accept me as such. I discover that when we travel to find the man who murders my mother, I was about to kill him in front of you, and if I would have you wouldn't hold it against me, I thank you for that. You have been to hell and back, turning the way you have is a testament of your kind heart, we are growing and learning, and whatever happened before it let is to this moment. Aang is alive, I am sure he is going to defeat your father, and you and I will defeat your sister, together.

Everything was happening so fast, words tumbling out of my mouth without even thinking of what I was really saying. I wanted to let that out for a long time, I felt lighter, the anger becoming acceptance of my path and a guide to my future.

"Together." Zuko said looking into my eyes, and a new determination was showing in there, we are going to build a new beginning, and today will be the day we will place the first rock.

Appa roar as we descend into the palace. A pit was forming in my stomach, anticipation, excitement…

People were gathered in the courtyard, a loud sound marked the beginning of the ceremony. Appa landed between two walls near the place, but not enough to be seen or heard. Zuko let a breath out and dismounted in one agile movement, I follow him, he looked at me, I couldn't understand what he was thinking.

"I better try this before I can't" he said closing the distance. He grabs my waist with one arm pulling me to him, grab the back of my neck with the other and place his lips on mine. My eyes went wide with surprise, but soon a warm feeling spread to my body and I was aware of his soft and warm lips on mine, I felt like someone punches me in my stomach, it literally hurt. Feelings, a mountain of them. His kiss deepened and I kiss him back, pulling him to me desperately. We pulled apart and look at each other, panting.

"I wasn't expecting that" he said, still so close that his breath caressed the tip of my nose.

Me neither, I was trembling, I am sure he is the one caring my weight.

"We need to go" he said, trying to pull away, but I grab on to him harder.

I didn't want him to go, I wanted to stay like this forever. What if we go and die? Panic begins to overpower my thoughts.

"Together, remember?" He smiled with full teeth, "There is no way we are not coming out of this one after this."

Hell yeah, we are coming out of this one. We smiled at each other like two maniacs, confidence shattering the panic and filling me with anticipation. I feel like I am drunk...

"Together" I reply, with a smile, and we run.

................................................................

"Sorry, but you are not going to become fire lord today. I am." Zuko declares as we arrived.

Azula rise with a scary smile "you are hilarious" she said. Stopping the man who was about to place the crown on her head. "Fine, let's settle this just you and me brother, the showdown that was always meant to be, Agni Kai."

Her hair was messed up, her eyes crazier than ever, something was not right.

"You're on" I heard Zuko answer, to my surprise.

"What are you doing? She is playing with you. She knows she can't take both of us." What about together, idiot?

"I know, but I can take her this time." He said looking at me, and my heart gave a jump of happiness. I smile at him, and nod. I trust him.

By the time the people left the sky was even darker, red shadows dancing above us, Azula looks awful, broken. I took my mother's necklace on my hand, and wait. He can do this, he can do this…

Their power was unbelievable, blue and red flames rising 30ft from the ground, the heat was unbearable. Zuko moved like never before, Azula getting more frustrated by the second, he was winning. Zuko made a fire kick that resonated 20 ft in front of him, making Azula stumble to the ground. I lean forward, trying to run but I stop myself. Not yet...

"No lightning today? What's the matter, afraid I'll redirect it?" Zuko taunted her.

I swallow, I don't think that is a good idea to play games with her right now.

"I'll show you lightning" She promised, her movements like a living nightmare coming to get you.

Zuko breathed, preparing himself to redirect it. His confidence is palpable.

Then I see it, at the last second. She was looking at me, my eyes widened and I prepare myself to move when I see Zuko placing himself in front of it. The monstrous lightning hitting him straight in the chest. I heard myself letting out a horrible scream. His body felt to the ground trembling with electricity, combusting in horrible angles.

I ran to him, but a holt of energy land in front of me. Azula was coming to get me. I looked one last time at Zuko, hold on, please hold on… I need to finish her first.

Fear becomes energy and will to survive, comet or no comet, I will stop her.

I glanced one more time at Zuko, and move just in time to dodge a bolt of blue fire. I could smell the heat roasting my hair. It made me sick.

Azula laughs wildly behind me, a predator hunting its prey. She was having fun. I could only run for now, she was behind me, she had the advantage. I move as fast as I can, bending ice to be faster I glance back at her, she was on the roof. I felt water nearby, move in that direction, and hide behind a pillar. Yes, water. I took a wave and blast it thru the roof, but she was gone already. I glance back once more and she burst out of now where, preparing lighting, that's it, if she hits me, I will die. I raise my hands, she was close enough, the water in her blood was mine and she stops, her eyes widening in complete terror. That's right you idiot. Her power was too great, I wouldn't be able to hold her one more second, the point of her fingers almost touching my nose, I will the water under us to cover us and support our bodies, I let out a breath, letting my body free and hold her with a chain I grabbed minutes before. I needed air. I finally let the water go, and we both fall to the ground gasping for air.

Zuko… I get up and run to him, my lungs still aching for air. His body was facing down, not moving. I was trembling as I kneel and turn his body, Azula was screaming like she was being tortured, his chest was badly burnt, I force the water to obey me and placed everything I have left in me to heal him, my fingers were shaking so bad. The water glowed and I feel his skin, his muscles, his organs… Please, please… I begged.

His eyes opened and looked at me, I let out a cry and hold him to me, I was crying tears of pain and happiness, my heart exhausted and bursting with joy. I kiss him, and our tears met each other.

"Thank you, Katara" he said, very softly.

"You are an idiot, don't ever do that." I threat.

He turns his face, hearing his sister's screams. I swallow and got up cleaning my tears with the side of my arm. I offer my hand and he took it, together we walked toward her.

Watching her like this bring me no pleasant feelings, she was crying with rage, pulling the chains, and spitting fire. Zuko's face was miserable, and my chest hurt for him. I surround him with my arm and place my head on his shoulder. He loves his sister, despite all.

"I am here for you, you will never be alone," I promise, graving his hand with my free hand, he looked at me and smile sadly.

"Thank you Katara," he said raising our hands and kissing mine, "thank you for being here with me."

EVERYBODY LOVES FIN: EPISODE 19

Canucks Twitter has never been more passionate, divisive and heavily opinionated; let’s go with an all-encompassing—vibrant. Any fan base is a community of people with thoughts to share, and luckily for others, content to create for a wider audience. I have to admit, I’ve been largely on the outside of Canucks Twitter, merely because I tend to direct my opinions to a TV screen rather than on social media. That being said, lately my sister, Pass it to Bulis contributor and Botchford Project recipient, Natalie Hoy, has been encouraging me to listen to more Canucks-centric podcasts. It’s been a fun time.

2010s: Does Vancouver really need two all-sports radio stations? 2020s: Does Vancouver really need 741 Canucks podcasts?

The world of ‘audio blogging’ has only grown over the past few years. Listeners are able to multi-task - exercising, cooking, cleaning, driving or on public transit - while plugged in to a new episode on practically any personal device. It’s a form of entertainment, often interactive, and a perfect creative outlet for amateur (and experienced) broadcasters looking for a new project. There is no shortage of podcasts courtesy of Canucks Twitter, a testament to the commitment and drive of fans, and the accessibility of the art form. With the Qualifying Round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs just about underway, there is much to be talked about. Let’s take a look at what’s out there.1

C4 Podcast

Founded: July 2013

Players: Chris Golden (@lyteforce), Anna Forsyth (@aforsyth03),Matt Lee (@mattlee_61)

Premise: The longest-running, active Canucks podcast (birthed from Canucks Hockey Blog) has been on-air for 7 years! Originally co-hosted by Chris and parody song creator Clay Imoo (@CanuckClay), the podcast offers commentary about current Canucks and NHL affairs, prospects, expectations, reminiscing on the team’s past (memories of the retired taco lover Eddie Lack and past playoff runs), and features interviews with guests. This past season, they’ve had Patrick Johnston (The Province), Satiar Shah (Sportsnet 650), Cam Robinson (Elite Prospects, Dobber Prospects) and Dan Murphy (Sportsnet) in the hot seat.

Area 51

Founded: December 2019 (relaunch)

Players: Sean Warren (@SeanyeWest234), Samantha (@samanthacp_), Malcolm Ert (@malcolmert), Bradley Thomas (@bradthomas_96), Eric (@breakawayeric), Bailey Broadbent (@baileybroadcast)

Premise: Area 51 celebrated a relaunch last December since their inception in July 2019, and in May welcomed a team to join host Sean Warren. Aside from their cool, alien conspiracy branding, at the mic they cover a broad range of hockey talk with notable guests (writers and broadcasters in the media, content creators, musicians, WHL players, fellow blog/podcast owners, Canucks Autism Network). I love that they’ve started to cover important topics beyond the gameplay, like anti-racism, inclusivity, and diversity in sports, and have actively sought out the guests to do so.

Cap Space Wins Cups

Founded: February 2020

Players: Hassan Ahmed (@_hassanahmed9), Ahsan Ahmed (@ace103196), Hussain Ahmed (@hussain11ahmed)

Premise: The newly formed podcast has a light, humorous tone - evident by their inaugural episode introduction about their lack of social media followers. They cover quick hits of the Canucks week, roster situations, hockey culture, and of course, cap space. They’ve hosted fellow podcast hosts and media (Satiar Shah, J.D. Burke, Matthew Sekeres, Jeff Paterson), and even a fellow Burnaby kid, Massimo Rizzo. Rizzo was a 2019 Carolina Hurricanes draft pick. It’s clear they have a lot more to share, including takes in on their corresponding blog – see: How the Canucks Can Acquire Dougie Hamilton & Build a Cup Contender. I’ll read anything related to Dougie Hamilton.

The Broadscast

Founded: July 2020

Players: Vanessa Jang (@vanessajang), Georgia Twiss (@georgiatwiss), Samantha (@samanthacp_), Mallory (@sports_lesbian), Danielle Huntley (@danihuntley)

Premise: Your ‘local hockey girl gang’ talks Canucks, sports culture, and soap operas. All 5 hosts have a significant following on Twitter and are bold and uncompromising, which makes for great statements and table chatter. This was written with only their Teaser episode released, but you can expect no shortage of pop culture references, fashion discussion, NHL wives and girlfriends (WAG) and pet content, along with team analysis. It’s trailblazing for a group of females in Vancouver to start their own podcast that’s hockey-focused, meant to be a casual chat amongst friends. They know the team, know their media, can gossip, and are having fun with it.

PUCKS ON NET

Founded: September 2013

Players: Ryan Schaap (@schaaptop), Geeta Reddy (@geetanjalireddy), Paul McLellan (@McLellanPaul), Dave McPhail (@PucksOnDave)

Premise: The group of 4 has created a casual, honest atmosphere with their roundtable conversation. They’re good friends, which equates to great camaraderie. They run a ‘contradictory’ fantasy hockey league and don’t talk ‘fancy stats’ (while still being very knowledgeable). I think they’re engaged with their listeners, and relatable as human beings amongst their talk of Tim Hortons NHL trading cards, player safety, current signings and acquisitions, and Green Day at the All-Star Game. Reaching 7 years of consistent hockey talk and recapping the team’s evolution is a feat in its own.

And on Sunday, Ryan sat down with his old man for Father's Day to talk about growing up playing minor hockey in Calgary, bonding over the Vancouver #Canucks and even his words of wisdom when it comes to talking to your kids about drugs.https://t.co/BaQFM53Yws

The Canucks Conversation

Founded: November 2018

Players: Chris Faber (@ChrisFaber39), David Quadrelli (@Quadrelli)

Premise: Faber was joined by Quads in 2020, and the pair has perhaps the most praised local podcast so far. They’re both BCIT Radio Arts and Entertainment students (and writers for CanucksArmy), and their dedication, preparedness, branding and reporting level are top notch. They break down topics with great chemistry and perception - roster moves, Nikita Tryamkin, Olli Juolevi, and the Judd Brackett situation. Some of their notable guests include Utica Comets Kole Lind and Brogan Rafferty, and ‘bionic’ Finn Sami Salo.

July 30, 2020

Canucks & Pucks

Founded: April 2019

Players: Matthew Zator (@MatthewZatorSC)

Premise: Matthew Zator, writer for The Hockey Writers and Hockey Ops Director at Overtime Heroics, made a return to the airwaves this past July (after a lengthy regular season hiatus). Since getting back up and running, it’s full steam ahead – Zator has been joined by contributors from The Hockey Writers, The Canuck Way, college hockey newsletter Fresh Ice, and fellow podcast hosts. He has good insight and as a writer who goes into depth about NHL draft picks, the Vancouver Giants, and both the Nucks’ positives and negatives in his work, it gets noticeably transferred to the on-air conversation.

Canucks Speakeasy

Founded: August 2019

Players: Pete Edwards (@pete_gas), Doug (@dougvenn)

Premise: Pete and Doug are 2 “mildly educated Canucks die-hards” who chat about current team news and trending topics. They’ve covered trade talk, the Collective Bargaining Agreement, prospects at the World Juniors, scouting, and the BLM movement. They’re occasionally joined by guests including podcast friends, and fellow fans/Tweeters Chris Conte, Jenna Fabulous and Ray Hatt.

The LarschCast

Founded: June 2019

Players: Tej Dhaliwal (@DrTejDhaliwal), Sat Oberoi (@SatOberoi), Nav Dosanjh (@NavDosanjh1983), Ryan Cassels (@cassels_music)

Premise: The Larschcasters are known for their entertaining banter and debates, mostly on hockey and a little NFL. They’ve picked the minds of seasoned media (Scott Oake, James Duthie, Joey Kenward), legendary broadcaster Jim Robson, and former Canucks Kirk McLean, Chris Higgins and Shane O’Brien. They’ve been generating healthy content during the pandemic, including a spirited debate with Minnesota Wild podcast hosts, discussing media personnel moves, prospects, NHL Award contenders, and the toxicity in the Vancouver Canucks market. In June, they released a special with hockey coach/trainer Jennifer Chefero, sharing her story facing sexual abuse and harassment in her career, while candidly discussing women’s rights and sports culture.

The PP1 Podcast

Founded: October 2019

Players: Brayden Ursel (@bkursel23), Ted (@tee3ree), Ryan Hank (@always90four)

Premise: A tagline like “three guys from Kelowna bringing the heat and spitting the takes” doesn’t need further explanation. Appearing at the beginning of this season, the podcast (which features writers from The Canuck Way and CanucksArmy) has had some nice guests like the Canucks inaugural captain Orland Kurtenbach, retired centre and current Kelowna Rockets Assistant Coach Vern Fiddler, and Paul “Biznasty” Bissonnette. They’ve been nominated for Kelowna Now’s Best Local Podcast, and have a ‘Dudes and Guys’ segment where they pit 2 players against one another and talk it out (criteria is debatable).

The SCT Show

Founded: September 2018

Players: Nam Mann (@CanuckAgent007), Tanbir Rana (@TRana87)

Premise: SCT is Strictly Canucks Talk. Aside from reminiscing about ‘where were you when’ pivotal moments in franchise history occurred and the regular shop talk of performance and #NamStats, they draw in guests to talk about trade value (The Athletic’s Harman Dayal) and stickhandling (specialist/trainer Pavel Barber). They’ve also hosted local defenceman and last year’s 4th overall draft pick Bowen Byram, and hockey analyst/retired winger Anson Carter for a chat about the pressure of the market in Vancouver and the Sedins. Like any good heated debate, there are also trade and Team Tank vs Playoffs scenarios.

Johnny Canuck Talk

Founded: August 2019

Players: Adrian J. Haug (@adrianjhaug), Roy Styles (@roy_styles)

Premise: Takes from 2 arm chair GM’s, the pair discuss a wide variety of topics like losing streaks, hockey safety, report cards, line-ups, and trade deadline. They’ve also shared an insightful chat with Harman Dayal (The Athletic) about his career and the late and great Jason Botchford. It’s laid-back and conversational, with mentions of farmers’ tans, celebrating birthdays during quarantine, and the school system strung across introductions. What’s cool is they record the podcast from near and far away places – Kamloops, BC and Germany (!).

1 This list is not exhaustive, but there is something for everyone and I hope you find your Canucks fix. There can be an argument made that the podcast market is oversaturated, but I like to see it as an opportunity for any fan or audio bird to let their voice be heard! So, don’t be negative about it.

[deathpxrception]

Just how strong is Shiki Tohno exactly? Well, the answer just might surprise you...

For starters, he’s not weak as people like to make him out to be, by any meaning of the word. In terms of his health? Yes. Any dude whose constitution is sorry enough to potentially be put six-feet by the common cold should be usually be considered pretty weak. But in reality Shiki Tohno is bar-none one of the strongest human characters in the Nasuverse. Not only can he take tons of physical abuse. He can take many fatal injuries such multiple impalements, being shocked, having broken bones, having his arm cut off, all whilst running on less than half of a normal person’s lifeforce and still fight completely unaffected by it just by sheer force of will and shutting down his own pain responses. No magic artifacts, no blessings. Just the human ability of mind over matter and basic assassination training.

In terms of pure physical strength, he’s strong enough to fight off, overpower, and ragdoll zombies who would tear apart regular people with their bare hands, break the arm of SHIKI who is a half-demon/vampire capable of being unharmed even by falls from tall buildings, and using Nanaya as a reference---as Nanaya is literally Shiki just with more awareness of what he can do and the necessary ruthlessness to pull it off---is capable of ripping and twisting a man’s head right off the body with spinal cord attached whilst mid-leap. That’s pretty impressive on it’s own, but against most of the bigger threats he fights it’s not much to rely on. No, where Shiki TRULY shines and rises from dangerous human to an absolute nightmare...is his speed.

In movement speed, he’s not quite as noteworthy as his striking speed which we’ll get to later, but he’s still nothing to scoff at. Now to clarify, he cannot run across a city block in the blink of an eye, like our fine Servant friends might be able to, but in close to mid range, thanks to his clan’s flash step technique, he’s capable of short bursts of speed that put him pretty high up on the ladder with them. It’s pretty common knowledge that Nasu’s stated Shiki can move faster than the eye can track but how fast is that exactly? He’s shown multiple times vanishing from the sight of his opponents and killing them in an instant before they can even react but determining how fast he’s actually moving isn’t easy as there are alot of factors to consider aside from speed such as distance, position, not to mention sight isn’t a speed because it’s not an object in motion just visual input our brain receives but it does have a time frame which is what lets us see things like comets traveling at hundreds of thousands of kilometers with the naked eye. And honestly, I’d really, really, REALLY rather not get into the semantics of the pure fuckery of what that might entail honestly so let’s actually lowball it and say he’s at the very least moving a good deal higher than the speed of sound in these short bursts of speed which is anywhere upward to 1,125 ft/s; 767 mph. Not bad for a sickly high-schooler.   

And, then of course there’s his striking speed, his bread-and-butter. During the course Tsukihime(depending on the route, but for convenience and logic’s sake just by default assume one’s this applies to) Shiki slowly gains control over his inhuman speed, and by the time Melty Blood comes around he’s developed enough mastery of it to have it to the point he can not only perform flash step but also use his trademark 17-dissection on command. For those unaware what that is, it’s Shiki pulling a Sasaki Kojirou but on steroids, and slashing his opponent with 17 nigh-simultaneous strikes in under a second. It’s what he uses to kill Arcueid when he gets the drop on her in the visual novel. 

But, surprisingly this isn’t even his insane speed feet, that would be his final fight with Roa which has him slicing the lines of the vampire’s lightning with effortless, almost casual ease and finesse. Lightning strikes when they’re visible move upward at a speed of about 320,000,000 ft per second or about 220,000,000 miles per hour (about 1/3 the speed of light) keep that in mind because...

Shiki is striking even faster than that and with enough precision to cut the lines on them without allowing any harm to himself, even from multiple, magically enhanced bolts attacking from all sides. And just to put the fear of God in Roa, he even goes as far to kill the surrounding equations in his domain while he’s at it at the exact same time. To take it a step further he even goes on to pull off slicing the lines of Roa’s lightning mid free-fall while he’s hopping from one chunk of falling debris to the other like some kind of demonic spider. And this is him, not running on Nanaya auto-pilot and on less than half of a half of a lifeforce and recovering from getting his arm chopped off earlier.

This man is called the biggest monster in a story full of monsters for a reason.
