SCOTT HALL and THE BUBBLEGUM KID (aka BRETT SAWYER) vs. THE COMMANDOS ([GRIZZLY] BOONE and RAY [CANDY]) seconded by SIR OLIVER HUMPERDINK and THE DIAMOND DOLL - PWF 1989

[tactax-art]

i am obsessed w your creature au..... i would kill to read a fic about it it's so good <33

I have good news and bad news.

The good news are that you won't have to kill anyone. The bad news are you might want to kill me for the pace I write at.

But have a snippet :)

---

“He is criatura elemental, no?” Alejandro asks as they sit together in the colonel’s office and go over the day’s reports.

“Yes, a Bomb, Explosive Elemental,” Ghost considers the other for a moment, “Have you ever met one before?”

“No, he’s the first, but- do you have stories of them? In england?”

“Not stories, but there are rumours.”

“It is said they find a cause and then eat themselves up for it. There were two part of the mexican revolution, twins, they didn’t last a year before their fuse ran out, they were completamente loco, not caring who they killed in a fight so long it worked for the revolution, and in the end revolucionarios shot them even though they were two their own. It’s, ah…”

“It worries you. Having him here.”

“Si. He seems good, a very good soldier, but there is something about him, extraño- strange. Las Almas is my home, the destruction just una bomba loca can do is extreme.”

Ghost watches as Alejandro rubs at his stubble, clearly torn about his distrust of Soap but also not able to ignore the disquiet. He doesn’t disagree with Alejandro’s assessment, but Soap? It just… he can’t quite picture it, it doesn’t fit his initial assessment. Of course he could always be wrong, he’s been wrong before, egregiously so, trusted the wrong people and- but that was before. He’s got better insight into people now, the innate ability to sense fear has been a surprising, if disturbing boon thus far.

“My assessment is limited, I’ve only worked with him once before we were sent here, but I don’t think you have to worry about Sergeant MacTavish harming people unnecessary,” Ghost admits, “so far he’s proven to value his colleagues lives highly.”

“Even the odd ones?”

“He doesn’t seem to differenciate, while under threat it’s the same level of fear for all of them. Marines, Los Vaqueros, superiors, subordinates. It’s like…” Ghost frowns at the realisation, “He considers us all equally vulnerable.”

“That is unusual?” Alejandro questions, clearly curious now.

Ghost just nods. It not necessary for Alejandro to know that, now that he thinks about it, he’s never met anyone who truly values people equally. Or if nothing else, fears for them equally, but that amounts to the same thing. It’s normal, of course, it’s natural to fear for the person you know over the one you don’t. Your squadmates over some new arrival. Your sibling over someone else’s sibling.

On the battlefield there is of course also the bias of what beings people think can take more. More damage, more stress, more risks. A creature over a human, a non-humanoid over the humanoids. A thing that remains stone faced over a thing that can cry and bleed.

To Soap it had been all the same. He’d feared for the gargoyle pilot that had survived the crash the same as for his injured human squadmate. The same for the Swan Maiden, the same as the Grizzly Bear Shifter, the same for the (visually) adorable and childlike Cat Sidhe.

The same for him.

People don’t fear for him.

“Can I ask what you are? I don’t know of anything that senses fear with precision. You don’t smell it, no?”

Ghost tilts his head, his version of a smile ever since smiling became an effort, “Your worst nightmare.”

Alejandro laughs at him. Well, Ghost isn’t one to step down from a challenge however unwittingly offered, he’s in need of some proper dinner as is, and he’s not quite ready to stress-test his seargeant quite like that.

Sheriff Hoyt / Charlie Hewitt Jr: 'His' sheriff's badge! He wants you to comment on it, too- call him Sheriff Hoyt- stroke his ego. That's all he wants.

Stu Macher: A lollipop! You can have it, he's already sucking one. You two can have matching blue tongues!

DBD! The Clown: A little travel bottle with a suspicious liquid inside. He suggests that you drink it... I suggest you do not. Unless, you know, you're into it-

DBD! The Deathslinger: A wrench. He's a handy man and never leaves the house without his handy wrench!

Chapter 18 of Hare, Fox, Moon

Summary:

“The Grizzlies West is beautiful as they expected. The scream of a specific wild cat turns their relaxing mountain stay into a chaotic mix of panic, hunger, and a ~different~ kind of hunger.”

(Author’s note: Boone stabs his dick in the next chapter)

[ty-bayonet-betteridge]

still thinking about Tattletale and Mike Walters

"My name's Boone Grizzly Babcock, and-"

"No it isn't."

"What?"

"You've used that name before but it isn't yours. Does your name start with a vowel or a consonant?"

"I'm telling you, my name is-"

"It's a consonant then. One syllable long. Masculine, not unisex. Craig? Dan? Matt?"

"What are you-"

"Not Matt, but it's similar. Mark? No, wait, Mike."

"That's not-"

"Oh, but you don't call yourself Mike, because you work with somebody else named Mike. You go by Mikey to keep it straight."

"There's nobody-"

"And Mike is you from the future isn't he?"

"WHO ARE YOU"

HC; Fragmentum Scarring.

Come to the time Penacony is heavily introduced. It'd be the true moment where Caelus releases more of his inhibitions of actively using the Stellaron in combat applicable situations. While it offers a dangerous border in terms of boons, the effects it holds upon his body are also a learning curve. The biggest being when his blood tilts to that radioactive point, burning crimson to gold.

Injuries sustained in this state will have a momentary means of 'instant recovery' scars of Fragmentum energy immediately covering them (looking similar to obsidian crystallizing on his skin), even while golden ichor spills from his body. These injuries themselves wouldn't be long lasting, as the conventional fashion/reason of Healing is distorted with him. These will heal back to his normal skin state given enough time, but the sight beforehand looks grizzly.

By no means is this hint of him gaining control of the Fragmentum space. For Caelus, to delve into that quanta enriched zone would make the screams too loud, his own sanity being swallowed by that very sea he'd intend to use as a gambit. What he primarily take from the Stellaron is indictive to Stellaron contamination zones themselves. He can equally draw his influence and reshape the twisted wishes of the land, utilizing his own technique of deploying it. Whether through empowerment or aspects of creation.

Penacony itself was the best grounds to truly make this reach. With Memoria as a very nebulous conduit, it'd allow him to quite literally warp the dream's 'reality', to combat the laws of Ena if there's enough backing of strong souls/vast numbers unified with his state of Harmony's Path. It becomes the first time he genuinely casts off that fear, and trusts in his experiences and improvements, that it wouldn't require Welt's intervention another time, that control wouldn't be lost.

Truth be told? It doesn't. Harmony with others also tunes the corrosive voices, souls and remnants of the Stellaron itself. It tapers down their volume, it smooths the discord and allows his authority to be displayed in utilizing a new growing wealth of abilities.

If the injuries do hold a lasting impression however, it'd be similar to being between upon a mortal and higher plane, your body being frayed as if being pierced with countless needles of flaming power. An important balance has to be utilized in ensuring that the Stellaron simply doesn't find itself grasping upon a high potential vessel, and instead, he triumphs upon that inner war.

PLEASE I would love to hear your thoughts on LOST…. I love my islanders dearly and watched it through like 5 times…. I want to live in Desmond’s bunker………::

well me and my bf are gonna slow max the series watch an episode every Sunday so keep your eyes peeled :) I’m a big fan since it aired and he’s never seen it.

Tonight we watched the pilot part 1 and one thing I really liked but never made a connection on was that when Jack intervene’s Boone’s attempt to do CPR on Rose, he’s kinda sarcastic to him etc. I think this little convo is a nice parallel to when Jack tries to give everything of himself to try to save Boone later, including trying to puncture his lung - Boone suggests doing a tracheotomy on Rose!! - and also giving him his own blood. This stressed Dr is sassing this himbo unaware that in 20 odd days he will be sobbing over his mangled body, kicking off one of the biggest vendettas of the show (Locke v. Jack).

Another thing I didn’t quiet remember was just how grizzly the cockpit is. Now every tv show will show a dead body just for a lil mis-en-scene but you have to remember at this time on television, this was almost unheard of. One of the bodies particularly stood out to me for the brief moment it was on screen.

Also, the economy of words! Really tight writing that conveys so much while revealing little yet very subtly setting up future stories. Fantastic, masterclass.

I will maintain, the pilot is one of the best pilots of tv ever. It’s just a solid 90 minutes.

MARISSA: You ever met a guy named Boone “Grizzly” Babcock before? JAMILLA: No, Marissa. I have never heard that name in my entire life. Probably because I’m not an old-timey prospector. Is that a real person? Edgar warned me that these cowboy hats seep into your brain…

due to the nature of inscryption, and through the rigorous usage of mushroom-based surgery, my young elk spawned dams that grew up into god dams (pictured but you cant read it under all that bullshit they inherited from the young elk^3)

i got extremely manaclogged v. leshy because, besides the accidental unplanned elk^3 kingfisher reacharound, my only boon was a returnal-immortal juicy goat with a 15/15 orobullshit pair. due to the aforementioned returnal goat propping up my shit ass deck i was drawing nothing but grizzlies and other big juice demanders.

somehow the god dams killed him singlehandedly. they axed him before he could goldmine them and then took down the moon. i drew my juicy goat literally 1 turn from them finishing his sorry ass.

The Cripple

Scroll 1: Where young Harald lacked in strength and skill, he more than made up for in sheer bullheaded determination. Not one to back down from a fight, regardless of his chances, he would often find himself in unwinnable scraps. Clansmen jested that Harald knew not the difference between bravery and stupidity, and this sentiment was proven true time and again. No more so than when he single-handedly took on a fully-grown bear. Miraculously, Harald survived the bout, but the grizzly behemoth left his leg permanently mangled. From that day on, pain would become both the bane of his life and the boon that propped up his legacy.

Scroll 2: After the bone in his leg grew back crooked, Harald⁠—forevermore known as "The Cripple"⁠—was plagued by constant agony. Eager to inflict on others the same suffering he had endured, the name "Harald" became synonymous with "pain." All islanders soon learned that fighting The Cripple inevitably led to a brutal end for them and their kin, and would sooner lay down their arms than face his wrath. Harald's rampage eventually came to an end when he declared himself King of the Isles⁠—his thirst for warmongering finally quenched. This, of course, was only because there was no one left who dared stand in his way.

Chapter 17 of Hare, Fox, and the Moon !!

(Revising these chapters has been a slow process. Thank you all for your patience. I’m mostly happy this marks the start of an arc I have long awaited; THE MAIER GANG!!!!)

Summary:

“Boone and Malt start on the journey to Oklahoma to hunt down the Maier gang leader. The route they pick brings them through the grizzlies and teaches them why mothers tell their kids to never walk on rail roads.”

Podcast #998: The Epic Adventures of America’s Forgotten Mountain Man

Plenty of famous explorers and frontiersmen emerged from America’s periods of expansion and exploration, and today the likes of Daniel Boone, Kit Carson, and Davy Crockett remain household names. You’re probably not familiar, but should be, with the name of another prominent pioneer: Jedediah Smith. Smith was a hunter, trapper, writer, cartographer, mountain man, and explorer who notched a lot of firsts: He was the first to lead a documented exploration from the Salt Lake frontier to the Colorado River and was part of the first parties of U.S. citizens to cross the Mojave Desert, the Sierra Nevada, and the Great Basin Desert. Having survived three attacks by Native Americans and one mauling by a grizzly bear, Smith’s explorations became resources for those who followed after and led to the use of the South Pass as the dominant route across the Continental Divide for pioneers on the Oregon Trail. In the new book he co-authored, Throne of Grace: A Mountain Man, an Epic Adventure, and the Bloody Conquest of the American West, my guest, Bob Drury, uses the oft-forgotten Smith as a guide to an oft-forgotten period in American history. Today on the show, Bob paints a picture of a volatile American landscape in which trappers and Native Americans collided and clashed in the early decades of the 19th century. We discuss how the Lewis and Clark expedition created a lust for adventure among young men, how the humble beaver played an outsized role in settling the Western frontier, and how warfare changed amongst Native American tribes with the introduction of the horse. Along the way, Bob shows us how the life of Jed Smith intersected with all these historic trends and shares the epic exploits that he and other mountain men took part in while exploring and mapping the American West.
