i bet hunter has blonde moments a lot. he is such a little ditz sometimes.
#AGSVDJBDK#i think he has a lot of ''ditz'' moments because hes got a lot of tabs open in his brain at the same time#whenever hes too busy overthinking the more convoluted stuff he somehow forgets small but crucial details#once he starts attending hexside he gets bullied by his own locker#it keeps trying to eat him#and hes like i wont let this stop me#so he makes a potion that puts his locker to sleep for the whole school day#gus: wow awesome plan.#hunter: [smug] yeah...#gus: but uh. you need your locker to be awake in order to get your books out. whats the plan there?#hunter: ....wait...shit....

Incorrect quotes tag
Got tagged by the lovely @fire-but-ashes-too, thanks for that!
So i may have got slightly carried away with this, it's under a cut for a reason
Tagging - @druidx @dogmomwrites @new-royston-cursebreakers @holdmyteaplease @oh-no-another-idea @irisisasleep (do you have ocs? idk but this is funny and i think youd approve) and anyone else who wants to this!
Here's the link to the quote generator I used!
So, this is technically a ships tag, but I only have two main ships (Harper and Luke from Superlosers and Rune and Veronica from PPP) so I did those two as well as their two friend groups because I thought it was funny and got a bit carried away.
Also sorry if the spacing is weird, I did half of thi on mobile and half on desktop
Enjoy!
Luke and Harper:
Luke: I want to wake up with you every day for the rest of our lives.
Harper: I wake up at 4:30 AM every day to train.
Luke: I want to see you at some point every day for the rest of our lives.
Harper: Act natural.
Luke: For this kind of situation, the most natural thing would be to panic, so technically I can panic.
Harper: NO, that’s not what I meant! Act like it’s a normal day!
Luke: My ‘normal’ days of late, consist of a lot of panic.
Harper: Will you just cooperate?
Luke: When a person is panicking, they are not apt to cooperate very well!
Luke, sweating: Harper, there’s something I need to ask you-
Harper: Finally! You’re proposing!
Luke: How’d you know?
Harper: Luke, you’ve dropped the ring five times during dinner.
Harper: I even picked it up once.
Harper: Are you okay?
Luke, crying: Yeah, it was just the onions.
Harper: *Picks up an onion* What the fuck did you say to Luke?
Harper, skipping rocks on a lake with Luke: It’s such a beautiful evening.
Luke: Yeah, it is.
Luke: *whispering* Take that you fucking lake.
And here's the whole group!
Ivy: What starts with F and ends with Uck?
Asher: No it doesn't.
Harper: Firetruck!
Luke: FUCK!
Luke: *running into the room* Harper just said they don’t love me anymore!
Ivy: What?!
Harper: *following them in* I did not say that. I just said that we are not driving all the way across the country just so you can punch Asher in the face.
*Ivy drunkenly wanders around the house and Harper is drunkenly giggling*
Luke, completely sober: *sighs* Well, looks like it's just me and you against the wold, Asher.
Asher, going to their room: Nope, just you. *shuts door*
*during a group project*
Asher: *does 99% of the work*
Luke: *has no idea what’s going on*
Ivy: *says they’re gonna help but does not*
Harper: *disappears at the very beginning and doesn’t show up again until the very end*
Harper: That's ridiculous, Luke doesn't have a crush on me.
Asher: Yes they do.
Ivy: Yes they do.
Luke: Yes I do.
Ivy: Made you all playlists!
Ivy: Asher, yours has only heavy metal, and is dark like your soul.
Ivy: Luke, yours has sad songs and blues to pair with your crippling depression.
Ivy: And Harper has the ABBA Gold album.
Asher: *sees Luke and Harper together*
Asher: They're cute. I would put them on a boat.
Ivy: You mean... you ship them?
Here's Vera and Rune!
Vera: I’ve been dropping them the most insanely obvious hints for like a year now. No response.
Rune: Wow. They sound stupid.
Vera: But they’re not. They’re really smart actually. Just dense.
Rune: Maybe you need to be more obvious? Like, I don’t know… “Hey! I love you!”
Vera: I guess you’re right. Hey Rune, I love you.
Rune: See! Just say that!
Vera: Holy fucking shit.
Rune: If that flies over their head then, sorry Vera, but they're too dumb for you.
Vera: Rune.
Rune: I am so cool. I am an absolute Chad. I am the epitome of coolness and awesomeness—
Vera: Hi.
Rune: melts down in a flustered heap of softness
Rune: Do you want to explain the text you sent me last night?
Vera: It was autocorrect.
Rune: Autocorrect wrote "You're so hot. Please step on me."?
Vera: Yes.
Vera: Are you really planning to shoot the demon?
Rune: Don't worry, it's a holy gun.
Vera: How so?
Rune: It makes holes.
(thank you quincy morris)
And the whole friend group!
Vera: wow you and Kai are home early from the movies. What happened?
Rune: We got kicked out because Kai wouldn't stop yelling diving scores as people jumped off the titanic.
Kai: That last guy had a solid 8, I'm telling you!
Vera: So how’s the food Rune made?
Kai: It's great! Compliments to them.
Vera: goes to the kitchen
Vera: You're adorable.
Rune: blushes
Vera: We all have our demons.
Rune, grabbing Kai: This one’s mine!
Vera: Why did you guys dress up as each other for Halloween?
Rune: Kai is the scariest thing I could think of!
Kai: Rune told me I should pick the dumbest costume possible.
Kai: Ooh, somebody has a crush
Rune: Pfft, I don’t have a crush on Vera I just think they’re cool, it’s not like I stay up at night thinking about them.
Later that night
Rune, very much awake: Uh oh.

It said I finished writing this one on May 1, 2023
𝑺𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒐𝒏 𝟏 𝑬𝒑𝒊𝒔𝒐𝒅𝒆 𝟐: 𝑯𝒐𝒏𝒐𝒓 𝑻𝒉𝒚 𝑭𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 (𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝟏)
𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕥ𖤓ꕤ𖤓ꕤ𖤓
The thunder crashes as the scene changes to Oliver's Lair as he is beginning to get ready to take out another screwed up One Percenter.
*Oliver's Voiceover*
The day I went missing... Was the day I died. Five years in hell forged me into a weapon. Which I use to honor a vow I made to my father. Who sacrificed his life for mine. In his final moments he told me the truth. That our family's wealth had been built on the suffering of others. That he failed our city and I had to save it, righting his wrongs. But to do that without endangering the people I love, I have to become someone else. I have to become something else.
➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳
The hood stands on a rooftop in a standoff against three men.
"Marcus Redman asks "Who's that?"
"And where did he come from?" Asks another man
"What's going on here?!" Says a third man as the hood fires an arrow at him
"Get the chopper back now!" Yells Marcus in a panic
The hood shoots an arrow at another man as Marcus says "Who is this guy?"
"Whoa whoa whoa! " he tells as he hits him with the bow, throwing him into the ventilator.
The hood kicks it open, exposing the blades. And then he pushes his head towards the blades as Redman struggles.
"No! Please! No!"
"Marcus Redman! You have failed this city!"
"Please! No! Please don't hurt me!"
"Cell phone, inside pocket. Call your partner to give those pensioners back their money!"
He jumps off the roof as he uses a Zip line arrrow
Oliver walks into the living room where his family is watching the news on the hood "Mr. Redman has withdrawn more than 30 million from the plant's account. Redman claims refunding the Halcyon Pension plan was always his intent., but sources say he was coerced by the vigilante.
Oliver points at the TV and says " Wow this guy gets more airtime than the Kardashians."
"5 years on a deserted island and you still know who they are." Says Thea
"I've been catching up. Nice to see how much our culture has improved while I was away." He says
"The city used to be safe." Moira says and sighs
"What's wrong mom? Are you scared we're next?" Thea asks
"Do you have any questions about today Oliver? It's a simple proof of life declaration. " Walter says as they stand up
"Read a brief prepared statement to the judge, then your death in absentia will be voided. "
"I'll be okay Walter, I've been in a courtroom before." Says Oliver
"About 4 times." Says Tommy as he walks in
"I mean there was the DUI, The time you assaulted that Paparazzi douchebag. When you stole the taxi, which was just awesome by the way.. And who could forget peeing on the cop? " he says with a light chuckle
"I wish everyone would." Says Moira
"Sorry Tommy, we're off to court. " says Oliver
"I know. That's why I'm here. You're getting legally resurrected, I wouldn't miss it for the world. "
Oliver looks at Thea before asking "What about you Thea?"
"The last 4 times of you in court was more than enough." She says as she walks away
"Fair enough."
Diggle walks into the room and says "Mrs. Queen, the car's ready."
➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳
As Oliver walks up to the Courthouse he is bombarded by the Paparazzi.
The constant talking, questions and lack of space brings up another flashback.
*Flashback*
Oliver and Sara are thrown as the boat sinks.
Oliver reaches for her hand, but misses and the ocean tears her away.
"Sara!" Oliver's yells as she screams
➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴
Inside the courtroom, Oliver begins to speak "there was a storm.. "
"The boat went down and I was the only survivor."
*Flashback*
It returns to him, his father and Gus on the boat as Oliver yells for Sara. "She's out there!"
"She isn't there!" Robert yells
"Sara!"
"My father didn't make it."
*Flashback*
Robert shoots himself in the head.
Oliver screams "No!"
"I almost died.. I thought I had when I spent so many days on the life raft before I saw the island."
*Oliver's voiceover*
When I reached it, I knew..
Oliver was crawling to the island.
I was gonna have to live for the both of us.
"And in those 5 years, it was that on thought that kept me going."
The Lawyer stands up to speak "Your honor, we move to vitiate the death-in-absentia, filed 5 years ago after Oliver's disappearance at sea on the Queen's Gambit."
Oliver looks back at his mother "unfortunately we will not be rescinding the declaration of death for Robert Queen, the Queen family is only entitled to one miracle, I'm afraid."
➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳
As they head out Moira says "Now, into the officers. Everyone is ready to meet you."
"Mom... That was a little heavier than I was expecting.. Can we please go tomorrow instead?"
"Of course. " she says and then she and Walter walk away.
Oliver and Tommy continue walking "Last week you couldn't wait to get to the company."
"I had just spent 5 years away from civilization, I wasn't exactly thinking straight."
Oliver and Tommy run into Laurel.
Oliver awkwardly smiles and says "uhh... Hi."
Laurel glares at him, "What are you doing here?"
"They were bringing me back from the dead, Legally speaking. And you?" He asks
"My job."
"More like the DA's." Johanna mutters and Laurel looks back at her.
Oliver extends his Hand to Emily Nocenti, who shakes it.
"Oliver Queen."
"Emily Nocenti."
"Last week Oliver got back from a deserted island and before that he was cheating on me with my sister. He was with her when she died. Then he told me to stay away from him. It was really good advice." Laurel says and storms off up the stairs.
"It was nice to meet you." Emily says as she and Johanna follow Laurel.
"Come on buddy, shake it off." Says Tommy and then they walk outside.
➴◈◉◈➶◈◉◈➴◈◉◈➶◈◉◈➴◈◉◈➶◈◉◈➴◈◉◈➶
Reporters are questioning Martin Somers "I don't know what I've done to earn this witch hunt by Ms. Lancer, but I can tell you I am an honest businessman and I will fight this slander to my last dime and breath."
As Somers walks in, they see Oliver and then their questioning to him as they swarm him.
As Diggle, Tommy and Oliver walk to the car, He tries to contain the situation "Everybody Back!"
A man with his camera gets extra close and Diggle angrily responds "Hey Man, I'll make you swallow that Nikon! Back!"
Oliver drives off and Tommy and Diggle look over.
"This happens to you a lot, doesn't it?" Tommy says as Diggle looks at him irritated.
Laurel is standing in the court room as she begins to speak "How much is a life worth. The life of a good man, a stevedore on the docks of the city in which we live?"
*Flashback*
Two goons drag Victor Nocenti towards Martin Somers.
*Laurel's Voiceover*
A father, with a daughter.
As Laurel walks around the courtroom she continues "The plaintiff will prove that Victor Nocenti learned his boss, the defendant was taking bribes from the Chinese triad to smuggle drugs into our city. "
*Laurel's Voiceover*
And when Nocenti threatened to tell the cops, Somers had him killed.
The Flashback shows a member of the triad slitting Victor's throat.
"Mr. Somers is a very well connected man, with friends in the district attorney's office. So if Emily Nocenti is to ever to get justice for her father's death, Someone's gonna have to do it for them."
✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠
Back in his Lair, Oliver is training, all of his scars from the island are shown.
He climbs up a tall rope.
*Oliver's Voiceover*
Martin Somers. Laurel's Targeted the worst of Starling City, so it's no surprise he's on my list.
Oliver practices as he hits metal bars with swords to hone his skills.
*Oliver's Voiceover*
The Police and the DA's office can't stop him, or they won't. Laurel thinks she's the only one willing to bring him to justice. She's wrong.
➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴◉◉➴
In a warehouse at the docks, Somers speaks "You, do whatever you have to so this trial gets shut down. The media will crucify me."
"Yes sir." Says the man as the lights dim and then they go out.
Multiple arrows can be heard being fired, the lights return and Martin Somers see all of his men down, just before he is grabbed from behind.
he wakes up, hanging upside down and in front of him, The hood is standing.
"Martin Somers."
"Who the hell are you? " he asks
"You have failed this city." The hood finishes
He aims an arrow at Somers, who then begs for his life. He shoots an arrow past him.
"You will testify in that trial and confess to having Nocenti killed. There will be no second warning." He says as he shoots an arrow that grazes Somers in the cheek, and he disappears.
Martin screams.
In the living room of the Queen Mansion Moira speaks "I hired you to protect my son. And while I'm not a professional bodyguard, a job requirement seems to be keeping around the person you're supposed to protect."
"With all due respect, I've never had a client that doesn't want my protection." Diggle responds
"I hired you, that makes me the client. Now where do you think he's going unsupervised?" She asks
"I truly do not know ma'am." He says
Oliver walks in "and he truly doesn't."
"Then perhaps you'd like to tell me where it is you go?"
"Mom, I've been alone for 5 years." He says
"I know that, Oliver." She sighs
"Mom...alone." He says
"I see."
"I promise to introduce her if it ever gets to the first names stage."
"No, I'd rather you promise to take Mr Diggle with you. It's not safe, you've been abducted once, and there's a maniac hunting the wealthy." She says
"He saved my life."
"This isn't a game, I already lost you once. I'm not doing it again."
"Okay. Dig's my guy."
"Thank you." She says as she leaves the room.
"Sorry to give you so much grief." Oliver says to Diggle
"I served 3 tours in Afghanistan, you don't even come close to my definition of grief. But if you ditch me one more time, no one will have to fire me." Dig says before walking away.
Oliver catches Thea passing as he catches her dressed nice "Where are you going?"
"Somewhere loud and smoky, and don't try to pickpocket my stash this time, cause I'm gonna get drunk instead."
"Thea, do you think dad would want this? " he asks
"Dead people don't want anything, benefit of being dead." She retorts
"I was dead and I wanted a lot."
"Except your family. All you do is avoid mom. Ignore Walter and Judge me. Don't wait up." She says as she walks off
At Somers' warehouse, Quentin questions him. "Guess I owe you apology. We come all the way here and it turns out you don't need the police."
"That's what I've been telling you." Somers responds
"So I guess that 9-1-1 call we got about a man in a green hood attacking you last night was what? A practical joke?" Lancer responds
"These men like to fool around."
"I'd be inclined to believe an upstanding business man like yourself, except my men found this at the scene." Says Lance as he pulls a green Arrow out of a bag.
"You see, there's this vigilante running around. He thinks he's some kind of Robin Hood. He's robbing the rich, he's trying to teach them a lesson I guess. I don't know, I don't know." He says
"The point is, he's a killer and no one and nothing will stop me from taking him down."
Quentin sticks the arrow in the mark on the desk, seeing it's a perfect fit. "Like you said, clearly nothing happened here last night."
"Isn't this a conflict of interest? Your daughter is suing me." Says Somers
"I'm pretty good at keeping my emotions in check."
"Well I'm not." Says Somers as he stands up.
"Neither of you wanna find out what happens when I get emotional."
Quentin and the other police walk out.
Oliver, Walter and Moira are taking a walk through of Queen Consolidated.
"We've modernized quite a bit since you were last here." Walter says
Moira sees Oliver flirting with some girls and asks "Are you enjoying yourself?"
"A little bit, yeah."
As they walk towards the office Walter says "I remember how excited you were when your father would take you as a boy."
"Dad let me drink soda in the office." He says
"So that's why you enjoyed coming" Moira says as they enter the office.
"The most recent success of the company comes from many different technologies, such as bio-tech and clean energy." Says Walter.
"Can I have a sparkling water?" Oliver asks a secretary.
"Take a seat Oliver, Walter and I have something to talk to you about." Moira says
"Mom, it makes me nervous when you ask me to sit." Oliver says
"The company is gonna break ground with a new applied sciences division shortly, and we want to honor your father by dedicating the building to him." Walter says
"Nice."
"And at the dedication we want to announce that you'll be taking a leadership position in the company." Says Moira
"No."
"No? But your company"
"I don't want to lead anything, besides Walter is doing a great job." Oliver says
"You are Robert Queen's son." Moira says
"A fact that I don't need to be reminded of." Oliver sighs
"Obviously you do." She says
"We understand this transition is hard." Walter says
"Which part exactly? That a deserted island gave me my MBA or that my father's CFO now sleeps down the hall from me?" Oliver says in irritation
As Moira walks away she says "you know, 5 years ago your irresponsibility was somewhat charming, it is a lot less so now."
Walter and Moira exit the office. Shortly after Oliver and Diggle walk to the car where Dig shields Oliver from the press.
➴◈◉◈➶◈◉◈➴◈◉◈➶◈◉◈➴◈◉◈➶◈◉◈➴◈◉◈➶
"The driver will be here in a minute. "
In the car, Diggle looks at Oliver before speaking, "I spent the first 27 years of my life in Starling City. And after that, I was 5 in Afghanistan. Did you want to know what I learned?"
"There's no place like home?"
"The opposite. Home is a Battlefield. Everyone wants you to be what they want or expect. But sometimes you're not sure if that's you anymore."
Oliver looks out the window "or maybe I'm wrong and 5 years alone didn't mess you up as bad as it should've."
*Flashback*
Seagulls are swarming the raft, where Oliver's Father's body is.
"Hey! Get away from him!" Oliver shoos them away.
He coughs from the smell as he drags his father off the raft, with the constant interference of seagulls.
He carries his father over his shoulder.
At CNRI Laurel and Johanna talk to Emily about her father's case.
"I'm sure Somer's attorney will try to make it look like you're blinded by grief or want money." Johanna says
"It's not about the money. I just want justice for my father's murder." Emily says
"Emily, there are Dangerous people who don't want this trial to proceed."
"My mother died when I was a baby. It's only ever been me and my father and they slit his throat. They'll have to kill me if they want me to drop this." Emily says
"Let's hope it doesn't come to that." Laurel says
"It won't. The three of you are under protective custody." Says Quentin entering with three cops
"This is ridiculous." Laurel says
"It's my job to keep you safe." He says
"Um, Emily. Let's grab a cup of coffee." Says Johanna
"Go ahead and do that." Lance says as he signaled his men to go with them.
"You stay." He says to the last one.
"I don't seem to remember this working this last time you tried it, when I discovered boys." Laurel Argues.
"This isn't a joke Laurel. Somers was attacked last night."
"What?" She says
"Yeah." He sighs
"By who?"
"It doesn't matter. The point is you've gotten on the wrong side of these men, so you'll be protected til the dust settles. End of discussion." He says
"I'm not a kid anymore, this isn't gonna work." Laurel Argues
"I said end of discussion Laurel!" He yells at her
"You're insistent on doing your job, fine. This is me doing mine, not only as a father, but also as a cop"
"You don't realize just how dangerous these people are, and you've made them angry."
✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠♫✧𖣠
At Somer's Warehouse, China White walks in and he says "Thank you for coming."
"anything for a friend." She says
"We're not friends. I let you use my port to smuggle drugs." He says
"For which you're paid very well." She responds
"Not enough to get shot at with arrows. You need to take him seriously, he's a much bigger threat than Nocenti ever was."
"Except now his daughter is the problem." China responds
"No way. If you kill her Laurel Lance won't let it go until she burns me, you and the whole triad."
"Then we kill her too."
Oliver is in his room changing his shirt when he gets distracted by the news report on Martin Somers saying "The attorney overseeing the case of Martin Somers has stated that Somers maintains his innocence, as he has no intention of testifying."
"We'll keep you updated as the information comes."
Thea walks in, seeing Oliver's scars as he puts his shirt on.
"How did you get those?!" Thea says
"Don't you knock?!" He says full of irritation.
"I know mom said there w-were scars, but this...?" She continues
"Ollie, what happened to you on that Island?"
"I don't want to talk about it." He says as he finished buttoning up his shirt
Thea scoffs "no surprise there. You never want to talk about anything other than my social life."
She begins to walk out.
"Wait Thea. I'm sorry. I know I need to get better at talking about what happened there. But.. I'm not ready yet."
"Do you have a second?" She asks
"Yeah." He says
"I wanna show you something out back."

TROPICAL STORM HILARY
And there are a couple problems with what you're doing one of them is that the ships have not backed off and you say they have and when does off and on cuz of ships so we're going to help and we're going to get this idiot out of here. There's a bunch of people who think there's a parallel but there isn't really just trying to use it to lots of ships and stop you from interfering and not and so you won't get any and it's still that way the attacks have increased on the clones they're at 4% an hour ago right now they're at 3.5% the general population and their bases are going down in size and it's going to go down probably it's a 35% in moments we see that they're 35% operational now and a size wise not yet but they will be momentarily and that's good. In seconds they will be there. It's going to happen and they will continue to shrink it's an important number talking about five bases four of them are evacuating the fifth is kind of just sitting there getting attacked though the attacks are not massively heavy they're trying to infiltrate. And yes it is proportionally sized no it's smaller by percentage is about 17.5%, so a couple more bases fall because 2.75 bases have fallen and the fourth base is half operational pretty soon it will be just that base and they will go after clones globally because of it the fleets the black ship are now at 100 million the stone chips are at 80 million and soon the stone ship will be exposed but having ships that look the same and I wasn't necessary but we'll be later you pull up in a big ship and you bully the other big ship and you force infiltration things are going on like that a little bit but not much it's different more shortly this is going to change rapidly
Thor Freya
Zues
We have a lot of dead space too we want to occupy it and use it mine it and make it ours and use it as bases so I suggested Dead space for citadel and big bases and they're looking at and saying wow that's a good idea and they're going ahead underneath it are things so we're going to use it
Hera
It's a terrific day we needed this we're going to have a strong presence everywhere and it's different than before and they said in the ocean too and we're doing that right now we have to have at least seven bases out of 10 to have a serious presence and we're trying to get there and it's not possible unless he's ideas came about and we're doing it now
Thor Freya
We can't get elsewhere right now but we're going to take those places and start right now and it's going to be great I mean this is an awesome idea and system
Nuada Arrianna I feel it necessary to say this we're going ahead with this plan because it's the only plan we have that's one reason and it's very good the series valid if we have a presence we move out and have satellite bases and we have enough troops that we can do things it's really difficult to get around now this will make it easier and we'll have to watch the skies for ourselves
We needed this it's a tab on the shoulder and it's a really good one and Hera is the one who brought it up this time around and she did it right
Olympus
You primed it and got it ready and we started advancing using this patchwork idea and we're going to go ahead with it there's plenty of room for factories using this too and the imbeciles can commute to it
Hera
Haha yes
Thor Freya
He's going to publish to get his teeth brush but we all have a lot to say so we're going to go around and say to each other this is a better way
Nuada Arrianna
That's much better and I have a whole bunch of that space and I know what to do what he means is take it off cuz they don't do it or go use it or go through it and we have stuff under it and minerals and other I'm doing it right now I've got permission
Gu Oya
We are going to help and what you need is what we're going to help deliver and we'd like to presents here too that's one reason
Abomination is she abomination
Terrific and it's a good idea
Gu Oya
They have a permission and we're rolling
Olympus

Here's Eclipse Lake, an episode that has been highly anticipated! Will it top Knock, Knock, Knockin' On Hooty's Door?
I'll skip the pretense: No. It won't.
You'll see under the cut.
Hmm, that list of ingredients for the Grimwalker...I'll let other people theorize about this (like @sepublic ), but it sure looks like a thing
Guess the mysterious green goo won't cut it, huh?
Belos face reveal already?! Huh, didn't expect it so soon.
Oh, no, he's hot! (And I'm mad about it)
Still an ass, though
Now we know why Hunter was wearing a different outfit (because people fixated on that for some reason)
Amity with the clipboard gives me strong Dipper vibes
GHOST! My beloved!
I need a moment because CAT!
(Also, someone pointed out earlier that Ghost was based on Dana's cat, and that's super obvious in hindsight)
Raine?! Oh, wait, you mean rain. Sigh.
Eda gets training tips from DBZ confirmed
(Also Amity's face when reacting to Eda's explanation is priceless)
Oh God Eda's a weeb I need another moment
Damn, Amity just straight up calling Eda old
Oh, loopy Luz
(The abomination holding the tissue box is adorable for many reasons)
Yeah, don't want Luz to eat the McGuffin
I have several questions about those Tamagotchis that I'll refrain from listing here
Amity your Odalia is showing
Girlfriend counter: 1
(Yes I am introducing a counting gag, deal with it)
Was wondering if they were ever gonna reference the dissection incident. We've come a long way, baby!
Oh, so that's what everyone was looking at
Luz honey your enthusiasm is admirable but no
Luz burrito is quite cute, though
Girlfriend counter: 2
(Damn, still wild to think that that's the case)
Just occurred to me that "Boots" is probably shortened from "Bossyboots" from earlier
Guess the Luz hiss compilation needs to be updated again
Those tunnels ain't the only thing around here that's unstable, amirite?
Oops, guess Kiki was justified, after all
Maybe don't talk so loudly about your plans, dude
That is her son, get it right!
Serves you right for having that stupid strand of hair sticking out like that
Is this just the episode where everyone dunks on White Boy? Because I can totally get behind that.
Already mentioned this, but I am loving the parallels between Katara and Amity with that bottle of abomination goo. Insert obligatory "Two Nickels" meme here about Mae Whitman.
We really are just dunking on the white boy and I am living for it
Hooty had to get it from somewhere, I suppose
Nothing says mother-son bonding like shooting things at each other (see also: Separate Tides)
I'm sure the magic bouncing off the veins won't come into play later at all
Oh well, at least the echolocation looked cool
At this point Amity would kill Hunter for a Klondike bar
Wait why does Hooty need a chair
Willow with the galaxy brain ideas
"A bad but sad boy" Luz is a genius at succinctly summing people up
Kikimora continues to be unhinged. Ironically she's not wrong about Hunter.
Motherfucker stop acting like you know what that says
(Also, projecting much?)
Girlfriend counter: 3
Friendly reminder that Hunter is still an antagonist
Uh oh
UH OH
I know someone mentioned Willow having the brain cell, but honestly it seemed like Luz had it this whole time. And that's not good.
WHY IS FOOL'S BLOOD EVEN A THING
Aaaaand cue the getting screwed over
Further reminder that he's still an antagonist (Apparently there's a vocal segment who's Really Mad at him that seem to forget this fact)
You unhand Ghost right now!! And Amity too, I guess.
(I kid, she's literally my second favorite character)
For what she did to Raine it warms my heart to know Kiki has had zero peace of mind
Wait, the Abomatons are Transformers?! Okay, that's kind of awesome, actually. Alador might be a shit dad but he is a brilliant inventor.
Chucking kids off cliffs is a surpisingly common pastime in the Boiling Isles
Owlbert no!
Eda did spend literal decades fighting the Owl Beast within, so I guess she can't be blamed for not thinking to talk to it
Also hurry up guys I'm very concerned about Owlbert
Fuck yeah Harpy Milf!
Yay Ghost returns!
She's glad they're okay (I didn't need to take this, I just thought it was cute. Also this is surprisingly high quality considering I just took a photo of my TV screen)
Oh, so they do have video games in the Demon Realm. That or Luz introduced them.
Trailer shot!
Oh dear, we about to have a fight over the key
Wow, being so high ranking under Belos is really bad for mental health
Jesus Christ Belos what have you been putting in this poor kid's head?
Leave it to King to give radical recontextualizations
Amity, I'm glad you remembered/realized this about Luz, please don't let the sad white boy play you like that again
Also, I appreciate the gesture you're making, and it's a wonderful summary of your character development, but goddamnit he's gonna go for that key because he's STILL AN ANTAGONIST
"Being nice usually works for Luz!" A) Not always, and B) Amity I love you but Luz you are not. A valiant attempt nonetheless.
Ooh, cool fight scene!
Always lovely to see such superb animation
I was privately griping about not seeing Amity use magic for so long, and now I am fed
Don't think I didn't hear the glass breaking
Appreciate your ass from a hole in the ground, Golden Boy!
(jk I don't actually feel that strongly about him still. That kind of threat still isn't cool, though)
Oh so that's why it's the Common Mold!
It's kinda cute, actually. Or maybe it's just because it's Luz.
TIL Hooty is heat resistant
Apparently Owl Beast just wanted a snack
Girlfriend counter: 4
Also love how calling Amity her awesome girlfriend is literally the first thing Luz says to her upon returning.
Yesssss return the hug! You deserve it!
(I know there are higher quality versions of this screenshot, I just didn't feel like looking around)
King demands huggies, too! (And gets 'em)
Reminder that Amity is smart as hell. I knew that glass breaking indicated something!
So once again I've been had. I let the fandom trick me into thinking this episode would be way more intense. Guess that one screenshot was from the next episode.
Overall this was...fine. Some nice Lumity moments, Harpy Eda strutting her stuff, that gorgeously animated fight sequence; those were all lovely.
I do wish Willow and Gus had a bit more to do. And I'm still rather unenthusiastic about Hunter, to be honest. I've seen his type several times before, and the path they have for him is rather obvious. I may never share the fandom's love for him, and I guess I'll have to deal with that.
Anybody who says this was better than KKKOHD is a damn fool.
Mid season finale next week! I think Yesterday's Lie will finally bring the pain!

LGBT Representation in Jamie Johnson as Compared to Other Kids’ Media
Pinned to the top of my blog because I’m quite proud of this post, and I still want newer followers to be able to see it.
From what I know, LGBT representation is relatively new in media. Not just kids’ media, but media in general. I don’t even think I knew what gay meant until I was like 11. And I didn’t know that religions didn’t exactly have the greatest opinion of gay people till my GCSEs. In that sense, I was lucky. I knew I was gay before I knew what homophobia was, so I have always been comfortable with who I am.
But others didn’t have life that... Well, simple I suppose. I’ve always known who I am, but other people, well, in the worst case scenario, gay people can become homophobic themselves and grow to hate themselves.
This might seem like a sidetracky introduction, but I think it shows the importance of LGBT in media. For someone like me, it can help to start to normalise gay people to my family. Even though they’re still homophobic, at least they’re able to watch programmes with LGBT characters in. I met someone who’s dad wouldn’t watch any shows with LGBT characters in it.
And for how rare gay people used to be in media in general, they’re even rarer in kids’ media. Why is it that Disney Channel only had their first gay main character in 2017 when homosexuality was legalised in... 2003 in the US. Wow, I can’t lie, I looked up that statistic expecting it to be way earlier. OK, but it was legalised in 1967 in the UK. So why did I never see any gay characters in my childhood? I’ve known I was gay since I was 9, but I must have first seen a gay character in, OK, it was Doctor Who. Captain Jack was pansexual. So I did have some LGBT representation. But there wasn’t much. And again, not in kids’ media.
So, let’s look at some of the kids’ media that changed the landscape for LGBT rep in kids’ media.
Sarah Jane Adventures and Wizards vs Aliens
We’ll start with what I think is probably the worst types of LGBT representation. First of all: Wizards vs Aliens. Benny came out. But I can’t remember the show ever talking about it again after he came out. Sarah Jane Adventures. Yes, it’s not Russell T Davies’ fault that he never got the chance to let Luke come out in the show, and yes, he got to have Luke come out in the memorial episode for Sarah Jane on YouTube, but even before Liz had... Luke had left the main cast, so his coming out would have still meant less to audience members.
Gravity Falls had a coming out at the very end of the show, and I believe so did Adventure Time, so they fit in this category too.
Compare that to Dillon from Jamie Johnson. Yes, there’s a reasonable chance we won’t see him again after this season, but if it is, he gets to leave on a high. We get to explore his coming out journey.
Steven Universe
Steven Universe is great for LGBT representation, and it’s great for normalising LGBT representation. You’ve got a huge variety of LGBT characters, because the Gems are all gay (Except Rose). So you can understand that there are different types of gay people (Love Victor did that too, but I’m not sure how many people would watch it). Steven universe is definitely the gayest kids’ show.
High School Musical the Musical the Series fits in this category too. Carlos is out and proud. And we don’t see his coming out, more his love life. Again, great rep. Normalises gay people.
Jamie Johnson is nowhere near the level of gay that Steven Universe or High School Musical the Musical the Series is, but I think that it’s less meaningful than other shows I’ll mention and Jamie Johnson. It’s the same reason Victor said “Screw you” to Simon at the beginning of Love Victor. We don’t want to see gay people who have it easy. We want to see gay people who are like us. Who have been through stuff and have come out the other side alive. We want hope, but that doesn’t come from seeing gay people who have it easy. I see people playing football and risking corona and I’m jealous. I want to play football again. I see gay people have it easy: Same. I wish I could have it that easy, and it makes me sad. Steven Universe is a great show, and has great rep, but I think even kids’ media should have something closer to home.
Andi Mack and Diary of a Future President
I love how they portrayed Cyrus and Bobby. We got to see Cyrus’ story from realising he liked guys to being able to say “I’m gay” to showing his crush he likes him (though homophobes can pretend the bench scene was just a friendship scene). Cyrus’ arc was great, and the bench scene was perfect and the only problem with it was that it deserved a fourth season so we could see Cyrus and TJ in a relationship.
Diary of a Future President though. I was heartbroken when Bobby didn’t come out to Liam. But then I found out there was a season 2 and I was OK, because it’s hard to come out. It’s as if all the shows make it so easy to come out to the first person, but it’s not. The first real life person I came out to, I came out at 22. And they had come out to me first. And I had to write it down on my phone. I couldn’t say it out loud. So yeah, seeing Diary of a Future President take it slow is amazing, and I love it, and it’s also what they did with Dillon.
Some people think that they only really intended for Dillon to be gay from season 4. But, I think that they’ve known since the beginning. I plan to do a character analysis on Dillon after my rewatch, but I think I found something that shows they must have known since at least season 2. (I expect the analysis will be a lot shorter than this. Sorry for the crazy length. And if it’s a crap read. I don’t essay well).
But if they knew from the beginning, that was a brilliant move on their part. The only thing that makes me unsure is how Dillon took 3 years to realise he might be gay, but it’s possible that he denied it to himself until he realised Elliot was gay. Because there’s no way he wasn’t thinking he was gay in season 4 episode 5. He didn’t think he was asexual, his reaction to Ruby’s foster mums suggested that he was interested because they were gay.
But regardless, I love that they took it slow. Not everyone can come out as easily as others, and having someone like Bobby, or like Dillon, is so much more meaningful than Cyrus, even though Cyrus is an amazing character. Bobby and Dillon are more relatable because they’re finding it tough to come out.
The Dumping Ground
I kept trying to decide whether I thought the dumping ground or Andi Mack/Diary of a Future President had better LGBT representation. In the end, I decided that I preferred the Dumping Ground’s representation. Yes, in Andi Mack and Diary of a Future President, we get to see the coming out journey of Bobby and Cyrus, but even though Andi Mack touched on homophobia, a lot of people didn’t even realise Kira was blackmailing TJ, making him afraid of how people would react if they found out he was gay. A number of people just thought TJ was being an idiot.
But the Dumping Ground had a gay couple wanting to foster Gus. And IIRC, Johnny thought it was wrong because they were gay. Something like that would foster (see what I did there?) potential discussion between parents and children about gay adoption. Some kids watching the show might have been gay and if they watched it with their parents, they could talk about it with them. Gage their reaction. Maybe even come out to them. The Dumping Ground’s episode was great.
And then May-Li came out. And we never got to see her full journey, But we did get to see her journey to being accepted by her grandmother I think. And that’s something.
And Now On To Jamie Johnson
Just like the Dumping Ground, Jamie Johnson has been able to tackle serious issues. I mean, season 1 dealt with Jamie’s cheating father. You’ve got Zoe being a carer, Dillon getting diabetes. But in terms of LGBT representation, it’s season 4 and season 5.
Season 4 episode 5 was incredible. I remember telling all my friends about it, and how amazing it was that CBBC were doing this. To recap: Ruby said her heroes were her foster parents, causing Dillon to ask Ruby about it. She thought he was being an idiot, even though in actual fact, he was excited that someone else was gay and trying not to show it. Dillon told his dad that Ruby had foster mums while he was telling him how Ruby’s biological parents weren’t in her life anymore. Liam, Dillon’s brother, used it to rile up Ruby’s sister Alba until she attacked him. She probably would have gotten expelled from the club, but Sienna filmed the incident so everyone found out what really happened, and it was Liam who got expelled. I think Alba only got excluded.
What I find really awesome about the storyline though is not just that they had it. It was that the consequences of Liam’s actions set the course for the rest of the season, aka Dodgy Duncan. Liam’s actions caused the club’s image to go down the drain, and sponsors to leave, and that’s what made Duncan turn to the dark side. And it’s a subtle way to just say “Homophobia is bad”. Because Liam’s homophobia caused all the problems in the rest of the season.
The First Time Dillon Let Himself “be Gay”
Dillon took a long time to come out. And, like me, I think for a long time, nobody really suspected he was gay, in real life or in the audience. He never really showed it. I’m pretty sure when I was a kid, I would act super offended and upset if someone jokingly called me gay. So, yeah, it’s a slow burn. And we didn’t get any hints that he was gay, but that happens. Gay people are good at hiding, I think that’s why gay kids are often portrayed as loving theater. They already have to act their whole lives.
It’s not easy to be in the closet. But I think that once Dillon was able to leave his father’s shadow, he was able to be more comfortable with himself, leading to him coming out to Elliot in episode 7. I think he had crushes before, specifically Michelle from season 2, but Elliot was the first time he felt like he could be himself.
So here we have two massive points from other shows, but they haven’t been done together. The discussion of homophobia in the Dumping Ground, and the Slow Burn from Diary of a Future President.
Social Media Presence
Andi Mack made a huge deal about Cyrus being gay, like a week before the episode where he came out aired. HSMTMTS had Carlos be a gay stereotype from the trailer, and OK, Steven Universe was always gay. But Jamie Johnson, and the Dumping Ground didn’t make a big deal about it beforehand. They didn’t scream to the world “Look at us! We’re woke!” They showed it. They let people see for themselves, they let people debate for two weeks on Dillon’s sexuality, and they didn’t tell everyone that this was the episode Dillon would come out (though they made sure that everyone knew they should watch this episode). They just let people see for themselves.
And after the episode aired, they made their move. They had the Jamie Johnson logo in rainbow colours to celebrate pride, they had a guide on how to react if someone comes out to you, and they had a history of pride, and I expect they’ll do even more on their social media after this week’s episode. @tkstrand reckons the Delliot post is Jamie Johnson’s most liked instagram post. I don’t know whether the other shows did this, but it’s a great gesture regardless. Oh, and there’s the fact that they’re doing a Bafta zoom conference on how they tackle issues.
Choosing the Right Character and Breaking Ground for CBBC
A lot of people on Instagram said that they thought it was Boggy who should be gay, and while I think either storyline would be great, I think that the writers made the right decision.
1) Boggy is an amazing person. He’s not afraid to be himself. I think, if Boggy was gay, then he wouldn’t have as much trouble coming out as Dillon is having. Of course, Boggy is going through stuff right now, but I still think he would have been a lot braver than Dillon and so we wouldn’t get the storyline we’re getting now delving into homophobia
2) If Dillon does have a minor or major role in season 6, we might get to explore homophobia in professional football, which would be super exciting
3) While Boggy is an amazing character, I’d reckon kids tend to gravitate to the coolest character as their favourite. And while Boggy radiates cool. (Seriously, check out the two posts I made on how sarcastic he is. And just look at his hat at the beginning of episode 1!
But Dillon is the more traditionally cool character, so he’s more likely to be a fan favourite (that and the fact that he’s the best developed character in Jamie Johnson). So for those who aren’t necessarily homophobic, but don’t really understand homosexuality, Dillon is the perfect choice to have written as gay. Because after next week, the people who don’t believe Dillon is gay might leave the episode with a new understanding of LGBT people. It’s been done with TJ, who’s also a cool character, but people who want to ignore the gay subtext can because it was never said out loud in the show.
And I reckon Dillon is a groundbreaking character for CBBC. Benny left soon after he came out, Luke left before he came out, May-Li is part of an ensemble cast, so in terms of a small number of main characters (the core 4 in JJ being Dillon, Jamie, Zoe and Boggy), so I think Dillon is the first gay main character (not ensemble character) on CBBC who has gotten a major gay storyline. Could be wrong, let me know if I am!
Groundbreaking in General
From what it looks like, the next episode is gonna focus completely on Dillon’s coming out storyline. Forget kids’ media, I don’t think I’ve seen an adults’ show that has an entire episode solely dedicated to an LGBT storyline. (Even Reunited from Steven Universe wasn’t completely focused on Garnet). Love Victor was jam packed with side stories and I think even Real O’Neals always had side stories to it. If another show has done this, I’d love to hear, but if Jamie Johnson really has the whole episode dedicated solely to Dillon, I think it’s huge. I only hope it doesn’t mean that the storyline will be forgotten about in the last 4 episodes, but since the head writer of Jamie Johnson is LGBT, I have no doubt they’ll do it justice.
Does Jamie Johnson Have the Best LGBT Representation in Kids’ Media?
No, I don’t think it does. Andi Mack has 2 seasons where we follow Cyrus on his coming out journey and Steven Universe has a lot more LGBT people, including a non-binary character. But in the aspects Jamie Johnson does well, it excels at. The homophobia storyline(s), and Jamie Johnson’s instagram presence. And having the best developed and best defined character be the one to show kids how to treat gay people. Thursday could be a historic moment for Kids’ television if they do this right, and I think they will. So I hope that everyone enjoys the episode! No, I swear this wasn’t a long promo for the next episode. No, I am not sponsored. Yes, this post was extremely long, I’m really sorry about that. I hope it’s worth the read. If not, don’t worry, this will almost definitely be my longest post. No, I don’t know how to have a “continue reading” button. Does anyone happen to know how? Thanks!
Edit: Apparently 4 O Clock club had a gay main character first, so I got that wrong, but I still hold that Jamie Johnson is groundbreaking.

Not to also be basic, but Luz?
we love basic people here
2-4 songs that are probably on their ipod: “royal” by waterparks, “psycho” by red velvet, “heaven” by pvris, “i’m just a kid” by simple plan
the one place they sometimes end up falling asleep - where they’re not supposed to: Eda’s nest, because it is comfy and when eda isn’t around, free real estate... also probably at Hex side, during free periods.
The game they’d destroy everyone else at: i don’t play minecraft but i think luz would be so fucking good at minecraft. i know you don’t fight or whatever in it but she could make such awesome things in it and everyone would just be amazed.
the emoticon they use most often: i think she and willow and gus would send owl emoticons they find all the time. she teaches hooty how to make a really long owl emoticon if he was able to text and it’s disastrous. he sends an emoticon so long it crashes everyone’s phones.
what they act like when they haven’t gotten enough sleep: very confused, ‘what’s going on’ type mood. would have to get forced through breakfast and getting ready in the morning,then fall asleep on the ride to school, type thing.
their preferred hot beverage on cold mornings/nights: hot chocolate with lots of mini marshmallows in it. coffee and tea are icky.
How they comfort/care for themselves when they’re in a slump: curling up to watch some of her favorite shows, cuddling with King probably, maybe inviting willow, gus, amity, over.
what they wanted to be when they grew up: a witch. is that canon? i mean she’s the kid who reads fantasy novels and hopes and dreams that she becomes the protagonist one day.
their favorite kind of weather: when it rains swords and she’s stuck inside and gets to go “wow this is just like adventure time”
thoughts on their singing voice: I’m assume she’s decent, definitely has karoke nights and forgets the words halfway through though
how/what they like to draw/doodle: all sorts of fantasy items, maybe ideas for her future palisman!

This is a continuation of my aizawa x reader fanfic called partners. To read the previous chapters click here:
Chapter 8
You woke up earlier than usual to stop by a cafe you enjoyed before you headed to work. When you finally arrived to UA (which was earlier than your usual arrival time) you went straight towards the teachers lounge. Luckily there wasn’t really anyone there, but sitting at a table with papers in front of him was Aizawa.
You’re asked over to him, with a coffee in hand.
“Morning Mr. Aizawa.” You said.
A tired face turned around to look at you.
“Good morning.” He replied.
“I brought you coffee.” You said placing the cup in front of him.
“I took a shot in the dark & assumed black. But I also brought some cream and sugars in case I was wrong.” You said reaching into the cafe bag & placing them next to his cup.
“What’s this for?” He asked.
“I just wanted to say thank you for sticking up for me in the meeting. & yes I know what you said, that I earned it & not gonna lie you do have a point haha. But I just wanted to let you know I still appreciate the things you said; this job means a lot to me. And also I think we started off on the wrong foot, but I’m down to start again? I mean if I learnt anything from that class incident is that you’re excellent at what you do...”
Aizawa just started at you quietly with a somewhat blank expression on his face, making you feel a bit awkward & silly. You turned red.
“Anyway, I don’t want to ramble on. I’ll let you get back to your work. See you around.” You said nervously & quickly turned to walk away to your class.
“Hey, YN” he called out.
You turned.
“Thank you for the coffee.”
“Anytime.” You said & have a half smile.
You walked out feeling good yet bad at the same time. A confused nervous excitement.
“‘I’m down to start again’ what even was that? “ you said to yourself scrunching you your face in embarrassment.
The rest of your day went on quite calmly. You’ve decided to stick to more theory based lessons for a while, to gain back a more stable reputation. Meanwhile you couldn’t help but feel a bit of regret with how cringy your interaction with Aizawa went, yet happy with the fact that you did it.
You had seen him at lunch time & noticed that he saw you as well. You gave a tiny smile but quickly looked away, still shy about earlier.
The next day you arrived to work at your usual time. Deciding to avoid the teachers lounge you headed directly to your classroom. As you say down your desk you noticed on it a black thermos with a note on it.
“I owed you a coffee.” The note said.
You opened it to a smell the most amazing roast with hints of cinnamon & nutmeg to the aroma.
You took a sip & quickly realized this is one of the best coffees you had ever had in your life.
At the end of the day you stayed extra hours to finish grading some papers that you’d rather not take home. By the time you got ready to leave, no one was really around.
As you walked out of the building, you saw Aizawa leaving as well. You ran up to him.
“Mr. Aizawa.” You called out & he turned.
“Thank you for the coffee.” You said, returning his black thermos.
Aizawa chuckled slightly.
“Like I told you, the things I said at the meeting weren’t a favor, so I owed you a coffee. Now we’re even.” He said with a light smile.
“It was really delicious. Where did you buy it?” You asked.
“I brewed it at home.”
“Oh wow. Usually I’m a cream & sugar kind of person, but the flavor was so rich I didn’t need it.” You said.
“It’s all in how you brew it.” He said.
An awkward silence suddenly fell with you not knowing what to say next.
“Well I’m sure you’re busy, I’ll let you get home.” You said blushing & adjusting you’re bag to turn around & head your way.
“YN.” He called out & grabbed your elbow.
“Why are you acting so shy lately? You and I both you aren’t that kind of person.”
You felt your face burn red & your heart begin to race. You scrambled up quickly to think of something to say.
“Ugh.. I know how I can be... I just don’t want accidentally say something that would put us back on the wrong foot.” You said nervously. ‘Why do I keep referencing feet?!’ You thought to yourself.
“You shouldn’t diminish yourself to make others more comfortable. You’ll never get anything done like that.” He said with a confident voice.
“I’ll keep that in mind.” You said as you quickly turned & left back to your place.
The rest of the afternoon you were trying to process what had happened back there.
“Ughhh” You groaned throwing a knife to the wall.
“In my attempt to not have things be so tense between us by getting to know him, I just feel more confused.” You thought to yourself.
The next morning as you arrived to your classroom, you saw the black thermos in your desk with a note.
“Figured I would bring you more coffee.”
Chapter 9
“Thanks for the coffee.” You said to Aizawa, handing back his thermos.
It was lunch time, & Aizawa was getting a plate at the cafeteria.
He made eye contact & smiled back at you.
“Of course.” He said in a low but deep voice.
“I’m surprised to see you at the cafeteria. I figured the pro eraserhead was just fueled on black coffee & stubbornness alone.” You said.
He caught on to your teasing, looked at you, gave you a smirk & a small chuckle.
“Don’t get too used to this sight, I’m about to go right back to my class now that I have my food.”
“Awww come on. What is so important that keeps you from enjoying this fine cafeteria?”
“Schoolwork.”
“Nerd.” You said in a low breath with a sly smile.
“I’d rather be in the quiet of my class room, where I can hear myself think.”
“Okayyy.” You said rolling your eyes and reaching over for a tray.
“You’d change your mind if you experienced for yourself the joy of not having everyone around you.”
“Okay, then prove me wrong.” You said with a wide grin.
“Hmmmm” he grunted
You walked into class 1A, the seats were all empty & you watched as Aizawa set down his tray on his desk.
He motioned for you to walk over, so you put your tray on his desk as well and say across him.
“Hmmmm.” You said.
“What?”
“Well it does beat having to talk over everyone else I’ll give you that.”
He smirked lightly.
“How have your lesson plans been going?” He asked.
“Nah nah, don’t get all chatty with me, you said you came here to do school work, so get at it. I’m just here to watch.” You said giggling.
Aizawa rolled his eyes.
“Oh okay, you but grump. Lesson plans have been good. Guess I’m just struggling to keep my class interested.”
Aizawa arched his brow.
“I wouldn’t expect that from a subject like yours. Usually hero focused material is what students are most invested in, specially material they get to practice...”
Aizawa gave a suspicious look at you.
“You haven’t been doing practical things with your students, have you?” He said sharply.
“Well we made such a commotion last time, I didn’t want to get in trouble again. I’ve been trying to build back up a more reliable reputation again, even if it means sticking to theory for a while. I really love this job at UA & I don’t want to lose it.” You said worriedly.
“That meeting we had after the incident was just to make sure everything was ok. At UA we aren’t obligated to uphold any traditions & we hero’s can teach however you see fit.”
“Well this is how I see fit for now.”
“Fit for your students or for you?” He said looking directly at you.
You stayed quiet but with your mouth open.
“You’ve been holding back. That’s not why they hired you. Remember what I said about diminishing yourself for others; you’ll get nothing done that way.”
“Well what am I supposed to do Mr. Aizawa? Not diminish myself for others or teach how is fit for them? Cause right now your two points seem contradicting.”
Aizawa took a final slurp from his juice, stood up from his chair & walked towards the door.
“Prove to me that it’s not a mistake you’re here. Show me you deserve to be at UA.” He said with mischievous smile & a beckoning motion & walked out.
You were so intrigued, you had no choice but to follow.
Chapter 10
You hurried to keep up the pace & follow the sensei.
You had no idea what he was up to or where he was taking you, but you’ve never been one to back down when curiosity peaks, so you followed hastily. A few minutes of walking & you realized, he was taking you to the practical training area for your school subject.
“Why are you bringing me here?”
“For lesson planning.”
“What do you mean?”
“We’ll be practicing defense & attack skills that you can use as excersizes for your students.”
*I can tell since the meeting she’s not sure of her teaching skills, thinking that the best thing to do is to stay under the radar. She is incredible at combat with lots of experience, but deep down she’s still just a new faculty member. I would like to help build her up.* Aizawa thought to himself.
“Are you crazy?! That’s how this whole mess started.” You said.
“There’s no rule in the school against pro hero training, in fact teachers advising other colleagues is highly supported, for the sake of the education of future pro hero’s.” Aizawa said with a grin.
In the blink of an eye you saw his scarf whip out & before you knew it, you were tied up.
“What is this?!” You said.
“Come on YN, think, what would you teach your students?”
“To use their quirk to their advantage.” You said & turned your arms into blades, cutting your way out.
“Good, but you should also remind them that their opponent will use their quirk to their advantage as well. So what now?”
You knew what was coming, what he was about to do; so you didn’t give him a chance to do it. You took your arm blade and put it in a beam of sun, reflecting the light straight into Aizawas eyes, blinding him, forcing him to blink.
“I teach them to use their opponents quirk to their advantage as well.” You say as you take the end of the scarf that was once tied to you & pull on it, causing him to fall over. You then run up & pin him down with your body weight as you grab the other end of his scarf & simulate a choke hold.
“Very good use of attack & defense. But you must remember basic applications, & this is a basic position in which I’ve found myself in many times on the field.”
Aizawa kicked up his back & put his feet on the ground, managing to tip you over; however you did not let go of the two ends of his scarf, bringing him down with you, but he positioned his fall so that he would land on top of you, rendering you immobile.
There you both laid, at a draw. You having control over his scarf, & him pinning you down with his body.
Both of you breathing heavily, & covered in sweat, he looked at you.
“I’m sure now you have many ideas to engage your students once again. And I’m sure you’ll be pleased to know we managed to keep it discreet.” He said in a husky tried voice.
“Haha yeah, this was really good.” You said, your face flushed from all the exertion.
You both still laid there. You not letting go, & Aizawa not getting off from you. He kept looking into your eyes, his face close to you, as if he wanted to say something. You couldn’t help but have a strange feeling of desiring him closer, & wishing you were brave enough to tug on his scarf to pull him to you.
You felt your hands tingling, it could be a simple slip up, a muscle spasm. The opportunity & want was there, you could feel it in you; so you tightened your grip around the gray fabric &...
You heard the bell ring. Lunch time was over.
Your hands went lose & Aizawa stood up, offering a hand to assist you to get up as well.
“I should get back to my class before my students get there.” He said scratching the back of his head.
“Yeah, I should probably go & let my students know that class will be here.” You said feeling your face burn red as you turned to leave.
“YN” Aizawa called out.
You looked back.
“Let me know how the class goes later.”

GO Rom Com Spotlight: @raiining
The wonderful @raiining has claimed My Big Fat Greek Wedding to adapt for Good Omens in the Good Omens Rom Com Event.
For reference, here’s some information about the source material!
Synopsis of My Big Fat Greek Wedding: Everyone in the Portokalos family worries about Toula (Nia Vardalos). Still unmarried at 30 years old, she works at Dancing Zorba's, the Greek restaurant owned by her parents, Gus (Michael Constantine) and Maria (Lainie Kazan). After taking a job at her aunt's travel agency, she falls in love with Ian Miller (John Corbett), a teacher who is tall, handsome and definitely not Greek. Toula isn't sure which will be more upsetting to her father, that Ian is a foreigner or that he's a vegetarian.
We spent some time chatting about how the adaptation is coming so far, as well as future plans for it! Now, get to know @raiining (also here on Ao3) a little better!
* * *
goromcom: You know how if you open a Tumblr chat with someone you haven't chatted to before, Tumblr tells you two things they post about? I wanted to tell you that I was delighted to see that yours reports that you "post about #omg and #lol." Which is a mood for 2020.
raiining: Bahahaha, I forgot that about tumblr. #omg and #lol seems accurate.
goromcom: You chose to adapt My Big Fat Greek Wedding as your rom com. Has this movie been a favorite of yours, or is there some other reason you chose it?
raiining: Yes, My Big Fat Greek Wedding is an absolute favourite and, coincidentally?--one of the view movies on the list you circulated that I recognized/have actually seen. I have got to sit down and actually watch When Harry Met Sally one day because I have never seen it and I feel this is likely a terrible thing. But yes, MBFGW is an awesome movie and a favourite. I have a big family but not nearly as big as in the movie, so I can relate without it being all too painful. I also like how the suspense of the movie isn't so much "getting them together" as it is "making this work."
... so of course I want to use it to talk about Aziraphale and Crowley and their relationships with Heaven and Hell, and also Heaven and Hell's relationships with each other, and, also, I'm going to make my fic hinge on the fact that when this all starts Crowley and Aziraphale aren't actually in a romantic relationship and so "getting them together" is going to be a big part of the plot. Because why not.
goromcom: What's your favorite moment of your chosen rom com, and are you looking forward to presenting it in your adaptation? Any loose plans for that scene that you can share?
raiining: My favourite moment is the one I'm pretty sure I'm going to use in my summary, which is having Gabriel say "Well, he might as well meet the whole family."
goromcom: Hoo boy, Crowley, brace yourself!
Do you plan to stick very closely to the story beats of the original movie, or make bigger changes?
raiining: As I alluded to above, I'm going to be making some changes. I love AUs (and am currently writing two of them because I am terrible) but I really love the idea of NOT making this an AU and instead playing cut-and-paste. I'm going to use the idea that Heaven and Hell view the fact that Aziraphale and Crowley have lived together for a "year and a day" as the fact that they are already, in celestial minds, married. Gabriel has the (in his opinion) brilliant idea to use this as a way to make Aziraphale's situation seem officially sanctioned and not heretical and/or something that leads to other angels asking questions. So Heaven decides that they need to get married, and Crowley needs to be Officially introduced to Heaven, and then of course Beezlebub is not an idiot and isn't going to let Heaven steal all the good bits of this PR disaster, so... *rubs hands together* .. so I'm having fun, is basically what I'm saying. ;)
goromcom: What's an interesting decision you've made in your planning so far--a notable casting decision, a changing of venue, or some other plan you have to paint Good Omens all over your rom com?
raiining: I'm going to have Heaven play the part of the Portokalo's and Hell the Millar's, even though, going by personality, it should be the opposite way around. I'm definitely going to have fun with that, too.
goromcom: I love a good switcheroo!
I am blatantly stealing this last question from The Good Place: The Podcast, but here goes: Tell me something "good". It can be something big or small. It can be a charity you think is doing good work, or you can talk about how great your pet is.
raiining: Hiding half the kid's Christmas presents and bringing them out in July to shouts of, "Wow! New presents!" is awesome.
goromcom: Christmas in July is awesome!
There you have it! GO adaptation of My Big Fat Greek Wedding coming to an Ao3 near you soon!

Fallin’ All in You - Ch. 3: Those Slow Hands / Michael Gray x Reader
Summary: In which you meet Michael Gray, star hockey player for the NHL team, the Peaky Blinders.
Modern AU. Smut. Swearing.
Chapter 3: ~5.4k words. Smut! NSFW.
The date went so well, you and Michael had already begun to discuss your next. You planned for a Saturday two weeks later, as his travel schedule complicated your plans. Luckily, he had a home game Friday, but was off Saturday and Sunday as the team prepared for a road trip later that week.
Though you had just met, two weeks was much longer than it sounded. At this point, aside from practices or games and important work meetings, you were basically always in contact, whether it be through texting, phone calls, or Snapchat.
The kiss you shared, while pleasant and definitely at a pace you appreciated (you were trying to move slowly given how fresh your last relationship was), had ignited a fire between the two of you. Many of your conversations were laced with hints of a more suggestive nature; Michael was making more frequent innuendos, and you were sure to tug your lower cut shirts down a bit lower to reveal a little extra cleavage in your Snapchats. At the rate you were going, you weren’t sure you could wait two more weeks — there were several occasions where you seriously debated showing up at his house after a game, wearing a peacoat with nothing underneath.
Somehow, the two weeks came and went (Michael would be lying if he hadn’t had to get himself off multiple times in one day to help satisfy his itch). He had insisted on taking you out to a chic restaurant downtown, and you were nervously giddy the entire Saturday afternoon as you prepared for the evening. Logistics determined that it made the most sense for you to meet at Michael’s place, and you would head downtown together from there.
You allowed for extra time to carefully exfoliate, shave, and moisturize and decided on a light, glow-y makeup look. Your dress of choice was a flattering black fit and flare, flowy material covering your arms and sloping down your chest where it buttoned in the middle. Sexy, but in a classy way - just the right amount of skin. Michael was smoking hot, and you wanted to make sure you wow-ed him. If he wanted you as much as you wanted him, which you suspected he might, you weren’t going to ruin your chances if he decided to invite you back.
When you arrived at his house, Michael opened the front door, and you smiled to yourself as you saw him eye your figure appreciatively before inviting you inside and planting a quick peck on your cheek.
“You look amazing,” he breathed.
“Thanks, you’re not so bad yourself,” you winked as you stepped into the foyer and admired his modest, yet very nice home. You heard paws bounding nearer, and shrieked of excitement when his dog, Gus, jumped up to greet you happily with plenty of licks, tail wagging enthusiastically.
“Okay, Gus, I know she’s pretty, but you gotta get down,” Michael laughed. You smiled to yourself at the comment.
He gave you a quick tour of the entry area, showing you the kitchen, dining room, and living room areas, Gus following you eagerly and enjoying your frequent pets. You chatted easily before gathering your things to leave (“Bye, Gus! I love you!” you had said). Once in the car, conversation continued as he navigated his way to the city.
Dinner, too, was enjoyable. Michael had picked a rather swanky restaurant, seemingly not being afraid of being spotted — something he had originally said he wanted to avoid. He told you, “This is one of my secret gems.”
“Take all the ladies here?”
“Only the special ones,” he winked. You rolled your eyes, pretending to scoff.
Michael was his normal charming self throughout dinner, making you laugh with jokes and stories about the guys and explaining how he had gotten into hockey in the first place. You noticed that his gaze — the almost predatory gaze that you loved — had returned as his eyes continuously swept over your figure and bore into your own eyes, almost into your soul, you felt.
Once dinner had ended, and after a brief spat over who would take the check (“I am the one who asked you out to dinner,” he argued) and many thank you’s, Michael took your hand as you left the restaurant. He laced his fingers with yours as you strolled leisurely through the city on the way back to his car, enjoying the fresh air.
Halfway down the block, you were stopped by a young boy.
“Michael!” the boy called, running up to him as the man with him, presumably a father or guardian, tried to hold him back. “Hi, Michael!”
Michael turned around, smiling at the boy, and kneeled down to greet him at his level, “Hey, buddy. What’s your name?”
“Tyler,” the child said shyly.
“I’m sorry,” the older man apologized. “He saw you and just took off running. He’s a huge Blinders fan.”
“Oh, it’s no problem at all! Always have time for a fan,” Michael grinned, nonchalantly waving a hand to signal it was no big deal. “Tyler, do you play hockey?”
“Yup!” Tyler nodded excitedly. “I play left wing!”
“That’s awesome. I bet you’re pretty good. Do you score a lot of goals?”
“Yeah,” he said, puffing his chest out proudly before turning and pointing at you. “Michael, is that your girlfriend? She's pretty.”
You blushed at the mention, and Michael chuckled, a smile gracing his face as he looked up at you. “Yeah, she is pretty, isn’t she?”
“Okay, Tyler,” his father laughed. “It’s time to go. Let’s let Michael and his friend get going.”
“Wait," Michael called, fishing in his pocket before pulling out a receipt. “Do you have a pen?”
You fished in your purse, retrieving one and handing it to Michael. He scrawled a message on the back of the paper and signed his name before passing it back to Tyler.
“It was nice to meet you, Tyler,” he said, holding up his hand for a high five. “See you later, buddy.”
Tyler’s eyes lit up as he took the paper and returned the high five with full force. “Wow! Thank you! Bye, Michael!”
He walked away with his father, and Michael stood up.
“That was… adorable,” you commented, replaying the memory in your head.
Michael laughed, continuing walking alongside you, “I love being able to do that. Honestly, that’s got to be one of the best parts of this job.”
“I can’t imagine there are too many downsides,” you mused. “You get to play a sport you love, with your friends, every day. And you get to meet all kinds of people and travel all over the country.”
“And don’t forget the most important thing,” he said, pausing as you reached the car.
“What’s that?”
“I get to take pretty girls out on dates,” he winked.
Read the rest on AO3!

Top 5 Likes of Red vs Blue: Season 1
(Top 5 Dislikes)
Alrighty, the first Dislikes post is up. Which even calling those things Dislike is stretching it, to be honest. So let’s get to the Likes! Which there s honestly a lot to like in this season. Even though the Blood Gulch seasons are my least favorite and as a saga it’s just barely over Freelancer, these seasons are very endearing. I always enjoy going back over them, and I’m glad to be able to talk about a few of the reasons why. So let’s get to it~
#5. Early Installment Weirdness
You know everything I listed on that Dislikes list? That’s all due to Early Installment Weirdness. That essentially means things early on were quite strange when you compare it to a show’s current standard. It’s only natural that a show needs time to find it’s footing and not everything will work out or be done well. Especially for a webseries like this made by a bunch of video game nerds for what was originally planned for a miniseries, but the more ideas they got, the longer it went. So as I said, many of these things are very forgivable.
Plus, like I also said on that list, these things make the show endearing. The Blood Gulch Chronicles are very comedic driven compared tot he later seasons that are plot-driven. Things like the amateur voice acting, the weird stuff like the afterlife, and even the audio quality adds to the charm. It’s this weird show being made via a video game by some video game nerds. It feels like a newcomer’s indie project… which I guess it kinda is. And while machinima has been around before this, no one quite did it like how RvB did it. These things, as well as the other things I’ll get to soon, just help make it stand out.
Plus, if anything, it helps show how far we’ve come. Every dislike I listed has been improved. The voice acting is stellar, the audio is much better, the characterizations are stronger, and while there are still the occasional continuity issues many of them have gotten reasonable explanations. It’s fun to go back and see the lesser developed parts. You don’t feel annoyed with it, you have fun watching it not just because it’s funny, but because we’ve seen the evolution of the show. We can have fun with the older stuff, and that’s a great thing. It’s why I think these things should be celebrated, not mocked. I only put them on a Dislikes list out of necessity, but I love these things. I don’t want them to go back to it cause production standards are higher, but I’ll always enjoy revisiting it.
#4. Church Dies
Okay maybe phrasing it like that is kinda mean, but it is what happened so…
So I knew this was coming because Ten Little Roosters had this fact as a joke in Episode 2. But despite knowing about it, it was still a surprise to me. I mean they killed a main character? In Episode 7? And the character of the creator to boot?! Wow, that is ballsy. But the part I didn’t know about was that Church came back as a ghost. I guess I should have known since I had seen people talking about Church and he was still listed as a main character on Wikipedia when I was looking up stuff about the show. But tbf I didn’t know he died this soon or that it was only the first time.
It was certainly a thing that took me by surprise. Especially since IIRC, Burnie hadn’t planned on doing it. He just came up with it since I guess at this point they knew it was going to go for longer than intended. Honestly knowing that a lot of this season was made up on the spot explains a lot of the weirder stuff like the afterlife scene… anyways! Yeah, it was something that legit shocked me. The ghost thing confused me for the longest time, but I was just glad to have Church around soon since he has easily become my favorite (sorry Grif, it wasn’t always you…) and this one on the spot decision? It lead to some of the best parts of RvB. BOth comedically and once it was time to become more plot-driven, it made some of the best drama and lead to my favorite saga in the show with Recollection. It’s a minor thing, hence hwy it’s at 4, but it lead to so much more and I love it~
#3. The Tex Twist
Adding Tex to this season was a great move. For one it allowed a lot of great things for later, like the Freelancers and the plot after Blood Gulch. Even before all the Freelancer stuff came out, having these agents who were pretty much paid mercenaries added plenty of potential for stories and even comedy down the road. It also helped that we had someone who was actually competent among the main cast, adding an actual threat level. Not to mention she has a very blunt sense of humor that helps her stand out despite being the only female character aside from Shelia.
Heck, making Tex be Church’s ex-girlfriend was a great move. It adds something a little more personal and also helps Church’s character. He was the grumpy, snarky one among the Blues and then he died not even halfway through. But this helps give him another dimension as a character since he clearly still cares about Tex and wants to free her of the AI. Sure he’s still grumpy, being dead will do that to anyone, but he showed some competence once Tex got captured and again still cared about her. Tex’s bluntness and non-caring attitude about these things as well as owning her bitch-like personality helped her not just be ‘the girl’ either. She’s the competent one, but she isn’t just there cause she was Church’s girlfriend. She’s tough, takes no shit from anyone, but she never really gets annoyed or exasperated by the others either. Her straightforward personality is not only funny, but lets her shine as her own character and the later seasons only help.
While IDR if Tex was planned, her being Church’s girlfriend I remember Burnie saying was not. This is kind of a precursor to something I always admired about the show, taking small things and weaving them into the story. Like taking the joke that the teleporter turns armor black and the Blues using that to their advantage to trick the Reds. You almost can’t tell that this wasn’t going to be nineteen episodes cause they did so well finding ways to extend the story by using what they had. Tex is a perfect example of this. Not just because of later, but even for this season it added some more humor, added to her character when she could have easily been this standard tough guy, and also helped Church’s character. It’s probably the best decision that Burnie made for this season, and I’m glad that he did.
#2. Character Interactions
On Dislikes, I talked about how the characters were not very fleshed out. This, as well as the show being machinimated, meant that the comedy and dialogue had to be really good. Fortunately, that was by far the thing that they nailed most in this season. As I said while the characters aren’t fleshed out, they /do/ still have character. Heck Burnie basing them off the people he cast was a very good mood in this regard. People like Gus and Geoff have known each other for years, for example. So this made for a lot of natural character chemistry and a lot of really good interactions. I mean people love having Grif and Simmons together for a reason. They just play off of each other so freakin’ well..
The interactions and dialogue are really good and even funny. Sure sometimes maybe they dragged a joke out a little too much. Like when Church was starting to talk about Sidewinder and Caboose kept interrupting, you just wanted Caboose to shut up so Church could get to the point. But at the same time, Caboose’s interruptions and Church’s annoyance felt so natural and funny. Or how Grif and Simmons messed with Donut and tricked him to get headlight fluid, and everything that led to. Not only were the contrivances funny, but the characters just bounced off each other so well. They didn’t need to be deep in this season because they all balanced each other out so well, which is pretty key when it comes to comedies.
I think that this is what allowed the show to thrive. People didn’t mind the machinima or how bizarre things got because we liked seeing these characters together. We enjoyed seeing them bicker and them getting themselves into something stupid. The dialogue was funny, the jokes, while some could drag, were timed well, and it just felt so natural. Despite most of the cast recording from different parts of the country (and in Gus’ case another country), you wouldn’t know it going off the interactions. It just worked very well and is very much what helped the show endure for this long, and it’s something I don’t feel has ever faltered even at it’s lowest point. That is saying a lot I think.
#1. Memorability
“Hey?”
“Yeah?”
“Do you ever wonder why we’re here?
You already heard the voices the second you saw the screencap, let’s be real. You look at Season One, and it’s clear that it’s not exactly a cinematic masterpiece. It’s made by people who had no idea what they were doign. Everything is pretty amateur. The comedy, while good, is pretty much aimed more at middle/high schoolers and some probably would not pass today. I know if I tried to watch the show when it came out when I was nine years old, my mom probably would have banned me from it. So then… why did it succeed?
Like I said, it’s flaws and character interactions made it endearing. There’s a lot in this season that we still remember. ‘Why are we here’ is the most obvious one, but this led to so much. Church being a ghost got us Recollection. Tex got us Project Freelancer. There are so many quotable moments, like Tucker’s Voltron line or picking up chicks in a tank. Moments like the first scene, Church’s death, Tex’s arrival, Donut’s pink armor/awesome throwing arm. We always remember these things. We always end up going back to Season One in one way or another. Sure, some stuff is jarring, but we don’t care.
Season One is just fun. No one knew that it would lead to one of the longest-running webseries made, including RT themselves. I mean this allowed RT to exist period. It’s just got so many moments that we remember and still quote to this day. Even the show will call back to several moments. I mean how many ways have they incorporated ‘why are we here’ into the show now? Not only is it still funny, but it shows how far we’ve come since. We wouldn’t have the rest or RvB or anything else we enjoy from RT without this season. As such, I think that it’s memorability and just general existence is the best part about it, and is my pick for Top Like of Season One~!
Okay, one season down. Fourteen more to go. Thank you for reading everyone~! This is done, but I’m just getting started! So stay tuned for Season Two~!

S1E7: I Will Kick No More Forever/The Kid Came Back
It was bound to happen eventually, but these two were...not as good as the others? I don’t know, y’all. I didn’t feel fulfilled or inspired watching this pair of episodes. But I tried...for one of them, anyway.
I Will Kick No More Forever
Well, okay, there was one inspiring thing. Gretchen and Gus doing commentary for the kickball games made me think they should probably do a podcast together. So here’s a sports podcast that happens to be about the plot of this episode!
(I’m just going to write this all at once and see what happens. I have only ever written TV scripts, so I’m just winging it. Forgive me.)
GRETCHEN: I’m Gretchen Grundler.
GUS: And I’m Gus Griswald.
GRETCHEN: And this is “I am in Sports.”
[theme music]
[theme music fades]
[nat sound: kickball noises]
GRETCHEN: Kickball. Or as it’s known in most of Canada, “soccer baseball.” A sport of humble origins, and today, one of the most popular recess games in the United States.
GUS: You might not know all the names of some of the great kickballers in the storied history of the sport, but today, we’d like to introduce you to one in particular who took the playground by storm.
[nat sound fades]
ANNOUNCER (SOT): “Here comes Vince ‘The Foot’ LaSalle!”
ANNOUNCER 2 (SOT): “Kicks lefty, throws righty...”
ANNOUNCER 3 (SOT): “And that ball’s not coming back! A home run!”
ANNOUNCER 4 (SOT): “The undisputed, single greatest kicker that Third Street School has ever seen.”
GRETCHEN: Vince LaSalle. A fourth-grader in name only, he made everyone from kindergarteners to sixth-graders quiver in their kickball shoes whenever he stepped up to the plate.
GUS: His trajectory was storied. He was the only known kindergartener in Third Street School history to be invited to play with the first-grade kickball team, and by second grade, he was challenging sixth-graders to play.
GRETCHEN: This confidence was impressive. Inspiring, even. But it wasn’t meant to last.
VINCE (SOT): “Okay, everyone! Outfield in!”
GRETCHEN: It was a regular Tuesday, bottom of the ninth inning. Recess would be over in about two minutes. Ashley Q. was at the plate, fresh off a phone call, and Vince made the call to bring the outfield in.
GUS: It would be the last time anyone on the playground would trust him for a long time.
ANNOUNCER 5 (SOT): “That ball is up! And up! And up! Good golly, that ball is gone! It’s out of this world! Ashley Q., ladies and gentlemen!”
- SOT -
VINCE (on phone): “It was...horrible.”
GUS: “Horrible?”
VINCE: “When you make a call like that, bringing the outfield in, bringing everyone in, you don’t...that’s not what’s supposed to happen.”
GUS: “What is supposed to happen?”
VINCE: “Well, the opposite of that.”
- END SOT -
GRETCHEN: The next day, Third Street School received a long distance call — very long-distance. This call was from a busy street in Beijing, China.
PRINCIPAL PRICKLY (SOT, on phone): “They said they found our ball. I was like, what? What ball? And the man on the phone explained, you know, your ball. It says your school’s name right here.”
GRETCHEN: Ashley Q. had recorded the longest kick the school had ever seen. And Vince? Well, he didn’t take it so well.
- SOT -
VINCE (on phone): “I just started whiffing.”
GUS: “Whiffing?”
VINCE: “Everything. Just, missing everything. The next game, you know, the ball would be rolled to me just like usual. Kicked it right back into the pitcher’s hands. Kicked it foul. Missed it entirely.”
GUS: “What about after that game?”
VINCE: [sighs] “You know what’s worse than being picked last?”
GUS: “Not really. I’m picked last a lot.”
VINCE: “Have you ever not been picked at all?”
GUS: “Wow, no. How did that make you feel?”
VINCE: [laughs] “Well, after that, I left the sport.”
- END SOT -
[brooding music]
VINCE (SOT): “I am announcing my retirement from kickball. I will kick no more, forever.”
[brooding music fades]
GRETCHEN: Vince was distraught. Even though he was sure in his decision to leave the sport he loved, he didn’t take the transition well.
GUS: We visited him after school one day — a day he’d missed, we weren’t sure why — and found him in front of the TV, drinking root beer and eating doughnuts. It wasn’t pretty.
GRETCHEN: He kept repeating something, we didn’t know what at first. We tried to ask him to speak more slowly, articulate, enunciate. And then Gus finally figured it out.
GUS: “I was outkicked by an Ashley.” Over and over again. Just...gut punch.
[SFX - EXPLOSION]
- SOT -
GRETCHEN: “So we are...in my bedroom right now. Me, Gus, TJ, everyone. And I just showed them [crash in background] — Guys, what was that?”
TJ: “Sorry. Lost control of the Flubber again.”
GRETCHEN: “Glorp. It’s called glorp.”
TJ: “Yeah, whatever it is, it’s awesome. This should do the trick.”
- END SOT -
GUS: It was supposed to be a science fair project, right?
GRETCHEN: Yes, it was one of my attempts to invent a substance to replace liquid soap. But what I got instead was a bouncy...well...glorp.
GUS: And remind me what the plan was?
GRETCHEN: The plan was to create a diversion and switch out the kickball with the glorp ball. It’s much easier to kick, and it goes a lot farther. We just wanted to give Vince his confidence back, even if we had to bend the truth a little to do it.
GUS: My job was to switch the ball after Mikey and TJ created the diversion, from the kickball to the glorp ball.
[spy music]
- SOT -
MIKEY: “My foot! My foot!”
TJ: “Mikey! Are you okay? Can you play?”
MIKEY: “No! But if I don’t play, you’ll have to forfeit!”
TJ: “I’m sure there’s someone else we can use.”
- END SOT -
[spy music fade]
GRETCHEN: [laughing] Okay, it was a bad plan. It was not the best plan. But it worked.
ANNOUNCER 6 (SOT): “What’s this? Vince LaSalle, disgraced kickballer, appears to be coming out of retirement to replace the injured Mikey!”
TJ (SOT, on phone): “I was just trying to tell him, like, ‘If you don’t kick, we’ll lose the game,’ and he goes, ‘Yeah, well, get used to it.’ And I go, ‘Well, the only thing that makes you a loser is not trying.’ And it did the trick.”
ANNOUNCER 6 (SOT, CONT.): “He’s kicking righty today, maybe a revamped routine to make this try at his career go a little better, and...Oh my! Oh my word! That ball is gone! It’s in the stratosphere! It’s past the stratosphere! Where is that ball! No one knows, but Vince LaSalle has done it! He’s won the game!”
GRETCHEN: Here’s the thing. We all felt incredibly guilty after the fact. Because it was just the glorp ball. It wasn’t Vince. And still, we couldn’t tell him. But then it turned out we didn’t have to tell him.
GUS: I remember this moment so well. I was running back from the bathroom, wondering why the game was over.
GRETCHEN: And we were wondering why you were out of breath. You weren’t the one who had just kicked the ball into parts unknown. But then we learned the reason was...
GUS: I didn’t make the switch. I went to the bathroom, left the glorp ball outside, and when I came back, it was gone.
GRETCHEN: Vince had done it all on his own. His confidence was real.
[SOT - “Vince! Vince! Vince!”]
GRETCHEN: The world’s greatest kickballer was back in business.

Takeaway: I need a Gus and Gretchen podcast YESTERDAY.
The Kid Came Back
Look, everyone. The previous recap was so long, and I don’t want to overshadow it by going too deep into this one. This episode was just...a baby thriller, you know what I mean? All the elements of a creepy story tailor-made for kids, but absolutely no payoff. It was an insult, frankly.
In short, a kid no one has seen before starts following the gang around, and bad things start happening to them. They decide it’s because of the kid, so they tell him to buzz off, and he starts crying. The gang’s takeaway is that, oops, our bad luck wasn’t caused by this kid! And so they go apologize, and then they learn he has other friends anyway. The lesson is not to tell kids to buzz off...or so we thought, until another mysterious girl shows up at the very end and the gang runs away from her immediately so as to not engage. We never learn what’s causing their bad luck.
Just...skip this one. I hope the next one is better and that we’re not rolling down an infinitely long hill. Who haven’t we checked in with in a while? Have we had a TJ-centered episode yet? I’d be fine with that.
Takeaway: I need to tighten up my scriptwriting so I don’t run out of steam before even getting the chance to make fun of a bad episode, lol.

Cyrus’ Calendar Catastrophe (Tyrus Week 2018 Day 1)
Before you read a brief warning that I have never written fanfiction before. I came up with this idea in bed a few days ago and just spent two hours writing it and it is now past 2am. So it kinda sucks but I need to go to sleep so I’m just gonna post it as is. Enjoy and feel free to give feedback!
Cyrus liked to have everything planned out. He even had a color-coded calendar with all of his friends' weekly activities mapped out. For instance, today was a Wednesday. On Wednesdays, Cyrus hung with Amber while she worked at the Spoon. All of Cyrus’ other friends had extracurriculars on Wednesdays. Buffy and Tj had basketball practice, Jonah had frisbee practice, and Andi had recently joined a DIY club run by the school. This made Wednesday’s the perfect day to chat with Amber at the Spoon until her shift ended and then hang out at Cyrus’ house. This Wednesday though, Cyrus was in for a few surprises.
Cyrus was eating his baby taters while Amber stood on the other side of the counter cleaning up a customer’s remnants when he heard a familiar voice call out, “Hey, Cy-Guy! Hey, Amber! How’s it going?” Cyrus murmured out a “hi” but let Amber take the weight of the conversation while he silently deliberated over the situation Didn’t Jonah have ultimate today? Did Cyrus mix up the schedule? Finally, he blurted out “Why aren’t you at ultimate practice?” Jonah grimaced and replied “Gus got food poisoning and threw up all over the field. We decided to just cancel practice for the day.” Oh. Cyrus was relieved. He hadn’t messed up his precious calendar. It was a last minute change. He tuned back into the end of Jonah and Amber’s conversation to hear “Well I gotta get going, don’t want this food to get cold.” Jonah said lifting up his to-go bag. “But I’ll see you Friday Amber?” “Yep, 5 o’clock.” “Awesome. Bye, you guys!”
As Jonah walked away Cyrus turned to Amber with a slightly perplexed expression. “What?” she questioned. “Nothing. Just, how are you and Jonah still so close after how things ended? Isn’t it awkward?” “Not really, we’ve talked it over and realized we both weren’t fully into it. We were caught up in not wanting to be single. And besides, I never really liked Jonah. At least, not the way you did.” As Amber reached the end of her explanation Cyrus dropped the baby tater he had been lifting towards his mouth. Amber knew about that? How? It was gone before they even became friends. How did she even know he liked boys? Cyrus spluttered in a panic. “I-what-my-I didn’t-I mean,” he stopped and sighed, “How did you know?”
“Do you remember when you and Andi left the spoon after seeing Jonah with me?” Cyrus nods. “Well, when Jonah ran out after Andi I followed him out and watched you guys. Andi turned back to stare longingly at Jonah, and so did you. If you turn to look back it means you like them. After that, I picked up on your behavior around him whenever you were here during my shift until you stopped giving him that look a month or two ago.” Cyrus was shocked silent. “Wow.” he gaped after a minute. “You’re really observant.” “Well, when you have no friends to talk to you gotta do something to amuse yourself.” The two chuckled bit until Cyrus fell silent once more. “You don’t think I’m… weird? For liking boys instead of girls?” Amber’s face melded from a smirk into a small, knowing smile. “Cyrus, I of all people would never judge you for something like that. Who you like doesn’t affect your worth as a person.”
Cyrus was about to question what Amber meant by “her of all people” when another unexpected voice called out from behind him. “Hey, Underdog!” “Tj?!” Cyrus shrieked incredulously. What was he doing here? Is Cyrus going mad? Why is nothing going to his schedule? Tj must have noticed Cyrus’ bewildered expression because he quickly clarified “I left my gym bag here yesterday by accident. Coach let me leave practice early to get it. It’s kinda hard to practice basketball without having a ball.” Once again Cyrus felt the tension drop from his shoulders. HIs friends had to stop making last minute changes to his plans. All this confusion and surprise was going to drive him mad. Tj walked over to an empty booth in the corner and grabbed his bag out from under the table. Instead of walking out he headed back over to Cyrus at the counter. “I should probably get going but wanna hang at the swings after school tomorrow? I got the day off work and I figured we haven’t been to our spot in a while.” Cyrus felt his cheeks heat up at the phrase “our spot” as he nodded and answered, “That sounds great.” As much as he didn’t want to admit it to himself or anyone else, Cyrus was slowly gaining feelings for Tj. Tj said one last “See you later, Underdog.” and Cyrus tried to turn back to his food, but found himself turning around in his seat to watch the older boy walk away. Right as he was grabbing onto the door, Tj lifted his head over his shoulder to look back at Cyrus. Their eyes met and Tj gave one last timid smile from his flushed face before exiting the spoon.
Cyrus was too caught up in his pining to realize what had just happened until he turned back in his seat and saw Amber smirking at him. His eyes grew wide as he remembered what she had just told him about looking back. “Tj-he-he looked back- at me!” “Mmmhmmm.” Amber’s smirk grew to a toothy grin. She was clearly enjoying watching Cyrus’ mini freak out. Cyrus couldn’t believe this. Tj liked him back? He actually had a chance! Before he had a chance to open his mouth and voice his thoughts the bell on the Spoon door rang once again. “Oh hey, Cyrus!” Cyrus spun around abruptly when he heard Andi’s voice. “WHY IS NO ONE FOLLOWING THE SCHEDULE TODAY?!?!"
#tyrus week 2018#tyrus fanfiction#i'll put it on ao3 whenever i get approved for an account#andi mack#look back#cyrus and amber mlm wlw solidarity#oh yeah amber is lesbian and that's why she didn't like jonah and said i of all people wouldn't judge you#i know this sucks but i'm just proud that i actually wrote out my idea for once#it's so late ok goodnight

RvB16 Episode 7 Review: It Just Winked At Me
Last time on Red vs Blue: O’Malley came back bitches. That’s it. That’s all you need to know. No need to go into how Grif is all alone with only a talking lens flare and all the potential angst that writers can dig up from that. Or that Atlus is a dork who obliterated Tucker and Sister into subatomic particles. None of that’s important at all. Only O’Malley matters.
Alright, so this episode has been hyped for awhile. Joe hyped it up. Kyle Taylor (the Machinima director) hyped it up. Even Gus hyped it up. Any of this can mean anything. So as we enter the shortest episode so far (only 7 minutes… I guess Joe couldn’t make the episodes longer unless he’s holding them back for later), what has all the talk been leading up to? Well… I can say it was like nothing I’ve seen before!
Overview
So good news, Tucker and Sister are alive! Yay… yeah I knew that was coming. There is no way that they’d kill a long-time character and a fan favorite character they finally made a main like that. Also it looks like the blast sobered them up. So there’s your lesson kids: if you are drunk off your ass, being blasted by God is how you sober back up! Atlus tries to kill them a couple more times before finally realizing that ‘his’ protection is making that impossible. Also we find out that Kalirama is his sister, which explains her being the Queen of the Cosmic Powers. So goign into some speculating, Kalirama mentioned being the Daughter of Time. My guess has been that the villain is Chronos, the Personification of Time. It can also refer to Cronus, the King of the Titans and father of Zeus. If Joe made Chronos and Cronus the same person who Atlus overthrew and he and Kalirama and his kids trying to keep him locked up… wow and I thought the Church and Grif families were fucked up.
Since Atlus can’t obliterate Tucker and Sister, he goes with the option of ‘let my mindless minions do it’. So he summons up a cyclopes… I am NOT joking. Some may find this too bizarre, but as someone who likes mythical shenanigans I do NOT give a shit! Plus it fits the myth theme since cyclopes’ are part of both Greek and Roman mythology. So the cyclopes obviously isn’t a Halo character, so what did they do? They… put Gus in a costume/a ton of makeup and made him do it. Yes, you read that right. The cyclopes was RvB’s very own Gustavo Sorola. It is also, I believe, RvB’s first implementation of live-action within the show, at least on this level. It’s pretty good! I mean the cyclopes is butt ugly, but I’m pretty sure that was the point… sorry Gus.
So Atlus sicks… Grugh, I think? Screw it, I’m calling him Gus. My blog, my rules. Atlus sicks Gus on the two Blues. They understandably, make a run for it. At least until Sister quips that Tucker could prove how great a fighter she is. Which she meant as sarcasm… but Tucker of course has to decide to be Mr. Macho and face Gus. The result? Both the time gun and the sword get knocked away from him. I should also point out that Gus is about 100X larger than Tucker. So he can easily crush him… yyyyeah… not your best plan Tucker.
Back in the 6th Century (not the 16th like I wrote last week, Past Callie is stupid), Huggins is trying to figure out what to do now that O’Malley has gotten away and both she and Grif are stranded. Grif is currently… I guess looking for mushrooms since he mentions eating them later. Guess since he can’t talk Italian, that’s the only way he can survive, I mean it worked on the moon! Anyways, Huggins contemplates her options. Now because she’s talking fast, it’s hard to make out everything and for whatever reason,t he RT site doesn’t have a subtitle option that I REALLY hope they fix soon. But anyways, Huggins comes u with three potential solutions:
Wait it out and let time move along until she’s back in present day. This is ruled out because it would take far too long. This one is declared a ‘maybe’.
MURDER! Kill Grif and prevent at least one dirty shisno from fucking everything up! This is also ruled out as it goes against Huggins’ code and it’s also forbidden. Oh, but Atlus can obliterate people? I sense abuse of power!
Talk to Grif and convince him to team up so that they can find a way out of the 6th Century. But if she does this, thee penalty is getting tortured int he Underworld for all eternity. But this is the only option that could work, so… ye, she risks it.
Alright, so reasoning! Huggins goes to Grif, who is pretty much refusing to believe anything that is happening. Huggins tries to convince him to help her since otherwise hey’re both gonna die. Grif doesn’t buy any of it, especially when Huggins reveals that the Gods sent her to spy on them. SO he just walks away and Huggins is probably re-considering the murder option now.
Alright, back to the moon! Tucker tries to shoot Gus… and of course fails. Stupid guns! Sister retrieves both the time gun and Tucker’s sword as Tucker himself ducks inside the base. He tries to think of what to do… and sees his old armor set, giving him an idea. Gus reaches in and grabs what looks like Tucker, eating his head. Eww, Gus! That’ll ruin your teeth! Also is this an Attack on Titans reference? I’m positive that it’s an Attack on Titans reference. But of course it was really the empty armor which Tucker stuffed with grenades. Which go off, distracting Gus and Tucker drives in with the Warthog, driving it straight into hos face. It finally knocks Gus down and Tucker along with him.
So it looks like Tucker wins, right? Haha… yeah… about that. Sister points out that normally when you beat the boss, they come back twice as powerful. You’d think that Tucker, living in a video game, would know this but meh. SO yeah, Gus gets back up and he is not happy. Hey Tucker, tell him that they should go to Vegas! That’ll make him REALLY angry I bet! Tucker runs into the caves and seems safe since Gus’ hand is too big… until Tucker says he needs to do it one finger at a time. And Gus can understand English, so… yeah…
Fortunately before Tucker can get grabbed, Sister channels her inner Xena and attempts to use the sword, jump down form the cliffs, and stab Gus in the head. But Tucker informs her too late that the sword only works for him. SO she gets smacked away and when Tucker exits the cave to help, he gets knocked over to her. Sister points out that cyclopes’ have a fatal weakness, so Tucker goe sin and… attacks Gus’ groin. I… don’t think that’s what she meant Tucker… but it works as Gus finally hits the ground. Well… not the defeat I was expecting, but it was a defeat!
Unfortunately, Atlus decides to sick Gus’ wife on them who is rather peeved that due to this, they can’t do hanky panky and have kids. Having had enough, Tucker and Sister FINALLY do what they should have done before: open a time portal and get the fuck out of there. Where do they end up? Well remember the medieval scene from Episode 1? Well they FINALLY connected it to the main narrative as the two end up on the same tower as medieval Grif and Simmons. And the two get arrested… WELP.
Review
This episode has had a lot of mixed reception so far. I haven’t seen anyone hate it, but many were disappointing. It’s understandable why. After all the hype, it was really just about a dumb joke. A very well shot dumb joke, but a dumb joke. There’s still so little about he plot we know, nothing advanced any further here, the episode was incredibly short, and it’s still unclear what all of this is leading us to. We’re on Episode 7 and no progress has been made. I think so far Joe has the opposite problem he had last year. Last year, he rushed it because he only ha done season. This year he has more than one, but due to it he slowed down. A little too much maybe. This coming off the heels of last week’s O’Malley plot bomb and… yeah I don’t blame people in being disappointed and viewing this as completely pointless.
I didn’t know how to feel during the first viewing… but when watching ti again to write this review, I was laughing so much. I got a LOT more enjoyment out of it. To be fair, I am always like that. I always like stuff on the second watch than the first one since I knwo what’s coming and I can better process it. And watching ti again… I don’t think that this was pointless at ll. There’s no major progression with the plot, and I agree that it’s been long enough. But… I got a lot out of this episode, even form Grif’s brief scene. Not just with plot, but the work on this episode is truly impressive imo.
Before we talk about that, lets do Grif’s scene. It’s only about a minute long and the only machinimated scene. Yeah, 95% of the episode was CGI animated. But Grif’s scene, while brief, was good. I wish we saw a bit mroe follow-up on how he’s doing after O’Malley left him stranded, but him living off mushrooms I can buy. Him also goign into denial over everything I can also buy. So not as much as I was hoping for with him, but good stuff that matches his character.
The scene’s actual importance is mainly setup for what’ll happen later. It also FINALLY gave us some time with Huggins’ since Episode 1. And OMG, I absolutely love her. Her rapid fire dialogue is kind of hard to make out, but her actress did a good job at it. Huggins is cheerful, but serious about her job. She understands the importance of what’s coming, but has to resort to breaking law since she’s in a position where otherwise, everyone is doomed. She’s cute, but also sassy as evident with her response when Grif calls her Tinkerbell (is that gonna be his nickname for her when he warms up to her? I want it to be!) Seriously I am already loving the interactions between Grif and Huggins and I am really excited to see more of it! Now how they’ll get out of the 6th Century IDK, but we’ll just have to wait.
Okay, back to the res tof the episode. As I said, pretty much the entire episode is CGI animated. it’s the first major CGI fight in the season, and it was awesome. Okay it was mostly running, but it was fun to watch. Tucker plowing the Warthog into Gus was freakin’ badass. The voice acting was also on point. I have never laughed harder at Jason Saldana’s performance than I have today and Becca continues to crush it as Sister. Seriously, going all Xena with the ‘alalala!’ war-cry had me dying. An ProZD as Atus… OMG ProZD. He was fantastic in this episode and it added so much to Atlus as a character. Like he is just enjoying the show and is so unimpressed with Tucker and Sister even when they win. His animation where he’s just celebrating watching Gus winning was also so freakin’ fantastic and again, dds to the character. Seriously, I wasn’t sure what to think of Atlus before, but he has already become one of my fav RvB villain ever after this episode alone.
So onto Gus… I have no idea how Joe talked him into this. I mean he’s done worst and IDT anything will be as bad as when he did the Baby Gus RT Short. That short man… anyways! I think Gus did really well! It felt like he was truly interacting with the environment. He didn’t have to do much acting aside form grunting and going around wildly, but it felt like he was playing a monstrous cyclopes. Credit also to Joe and his directing. I don’t knwo what inspired him to do this, but OMG I am so glad he did. I mean it looks weird and it’s ridiculous.., but it’s RvB. It’s always been weird and ridiculous. Plus using live action again sells the effect that the cyclopes is a monster compared to what we’re used to with the machinima. It sold the effect really well. So kudos to Joe and to Gus because shooting this and then editing it in had to be a nightmare.
It’s why I don’t think the episode was at all pointless. I mean we DO have some minor things. We find out that Kalirama is Atlus’ sister, the villain si indeed a locked up time God, get a taste of how powerful the Cosmic Powers forces are, have some characterization for Atlus, setup for Grif and Huggins’ plot, an actual fight scene after so long, and it FINALLY ties in the medieval scene. It’s also huge on a cinematic scale, which is probably why it’s only 7 minutes. I mena Joe and his team had to fully animate the episode, shoot Gus’ scenes where he’s pretty much just interacting with air, combined the footage together, likely do re-shoots if the live action was even slightly off, edit it all together with the machinima, and… yeah. This was likely a huge pain it he ass to do for everyone involved. But I appreciate that they did. Joe is going above and beyond what he has to do. he could just do solely machinima and it would be fine. But he’s trying new things, implementing more CGI, and taking the show to the next level. Is it a hit? That’s for one to decide on their own. I think it worked here, but I don’t think they should regularly implement live action as they did. Special occasions are fine though. But I still appreciate Joe trying things and putting in the effort when he doesn’t have to. He wants to make the show as good as he can, and I can absolutely respect that.
Final Thoughts
Did they hype this one too much? Maybe a little. It was not what I was expecting at all. But I don’t thin that’s a bad thing. Again, I appreciate them going out of their way to do this. Plus the animation, dialogue, and voice acting were really good. Can I understand why people don’t like this episode and are getting weary of the season? Absolutely yes. I do hoe that Joe starts to speed up the plot soon. But I still had a fun time watching the episode, and in the end that’s what matters: having a good time. It was weird and ridiculous and I wouldn’t have it nay other way.

Okay, getting a bit more info on Yin Pei, thanks for that. He’s got the sheath of his family’s sword with him because it seems Azure Dragon Master stole the sword when he attacked the family. Is that a given now? That he did it?
ChuChu yet again MVP, taking notes and doing paintings of Duan Jianiang’s fighting style! I also love how she always looks so meek, but she’s actually really assertive, and helpful, and also really clever. I love her interactions with A-Fei, together with XY they’re a great trouple! Also, good to see A-Fei actually trying to connect the dots re XY, like: Hm considering his lightness skills are so amazing it seems really weird that he has no internal power whatsoever. Strange.
OMG when Ji Yunchen asks A-Fei about her skill level and she’s like, „Ehhh I’ve been training for 2-3 years…“ and then she thinks what an embarrassment she is because she’s so „slow“ in learning while JYC just boggles at her, and she amends to, „Ok, 1-2 years, whatever“. And then admitting to ChuChu that uhm no, it’s more like 6 months, while XY goes in the background, „Seriously, if you’re not using demonic methods 2-3 years is super fast, hello!“ XD
And how Ji Yunchen has her analysed immediately, like, „Hey Zhou Fei, you wanna help me fight and kill the bad guy?“ and A-Fei is like, „Ah well, why not, sounds good.“ and Xie Yun is like, „NOOOO don’t do it!“ yet again seeing his future marriage endangered. XD
And XY is sooo frustrated because A-Fei just can’t read him right. She yet again assumes that he must be afraid of death because he always runs away (but at least this time she understands that she said sth not good) and he’s actually angry, going, „I take you to be my soulmate and you ask if I’m afraid of death!“ Poor Xie Yun!
And I wrote down that he said „zhiji“, did he? because whoa.
Anyway, I felt like the last two eps or so have been dragging a bit with them walking through the forrest and through the cave and talking, while the bad guys are following them loudly banging their gongs OMG and also just walking around.
But aha, it’s getting more lively!
Azure Dragon Master likes how A-Fei fights and wants to recruit her, as you do. Promising her all kinds of awesome stuff, and A-Fei just goes, „Nope“. And he immediately gets angry, like „Stinky girl (that insult is just…) you shouldn’t be allowed to learn more and get even better (really!), now die!“ XD
And thank you for confirming that you really killed the Yin Clan/Sect, and Ji Yunchen of course is able to fight when it looks dire.
Love how XY always, always talks his way out of any situation. XD He explains Dragon Master’s deal to him and then explains his body armour, and A-Fei is so happy that it wasn’t her lacking any skills but that she would’ve gotten some good hits in if not for that body armour. XD
Nice that Yin Pei helped fighting that bad guy, that was at least sth. And of course Ji Yunchen dies after he managed to virtually give A-Fei his skills. XD Now I’m wondering where the Dragon Master’s soldiers went? Did they just… leave?
So, Yin Pei is also searching for the Hai Tian Ye Se (?) which I guess is the McGuffin we are waiting for to be explained. It was at least kinda nice of him to leave the body armour with ChuChu!
So, basically A-Fei just walks around, meets lots of old masters who are the last of their kind and manage to teach her their super awesome skills, and then die. XD And Li Sheng is doing basically the same somewhere else in the woods. At least the Daoist master isn’t dead yet.
Oh nooo Xie Yun tells a short version of his story but of course without actually saying that it’s about him. :( How old was he there, about 12-13? And then he was just used as bait and decided that this is shit, and calls himself a deserter. I’m pretty sure that’s not how it really went down. Someone rescues him but he was poisoned and the poison is still there but kinda blocked. But that’s why he can’t use his martial powers anymore. :(
I also really liked the landscape at that ruined house (that was where Duan Jianiang had that meeting with Li Zheng, right?). Just, really pretty with the horses and mountains in the background. And mysteriously A-Fei suddenly has a fainting spell right there. hmmm
OMG Li Jinrong lets Li Yan leave the mountain because she whines loud enough! XD I mean I can’t fault her, I would also want some peace and quiet once in a while, but... are you sure you should send her out into the world? While you’ve already kinda lost a daughter and a nephew out there? Li Yan does not seem like someone who would do well in a fight. But then again, letting her loose on the world might be funny, she’ll likely just whine and pout the villains into submission. XD
Ah yes let’s just all meet up in Hengyang City, why not! Xie Yun + A-Fei are on their way because XY of course “knows a guy”. And Evil overlord Shen Tianshu wants to go there because.. I assume he wants to meet the same guy? This will be fun.
Wow and the new evil master of the Disha is called Killer Leopard, Gu TianXian. Their names are really sth else. XD
Seriously, why why why is everyone entrusting General Wen with the safety of anyone?! “Please take good care of Chuchu because evil guys are after her!” Yeah no problem, he just leaves her standing there in the forest because he must look for the hunter traps himself. Good thing that it was Li Sheng who was strolling through this very same forest and happened upon her before Disha did. And of course Li Sheng is the happy puppy he is and doesn’t even tell her his name, just goes, “Hey you look like that girl A-Fei and I saw the drawing of!” XD
I’m not really sure what he wants to accomplish with his plan, couldn’t they have just... stayed hidden in the underbrush or something?

Fairly Odd Loud House
The crossover event of The Loud House and Fairly Odd Parents!
It was a sunny day in Royal Woods. Lincoln was reading comics in his underwear where Lisa entered.
Lisa: Must you do that in front of everyone? Anyways, I have some news..
Lincoln: What? Lis, I need to know how Ace Savvy and One Eyed Jack became partners...
Lisa: I know. But this is urgent... You see, rumors have been spreading.........
Lincoln: What? People actually DON'T like your science experiments.
Lisa looked annoyed.
Lisa: No. Just see for yourself.
Across the street was a green automobile.
It looked different from many other cars in Royal Woods.
Lincoln: You wanted me to see a car, Lisa?
Lisa: No. See for yourself...
Just then a short, brown-haired boy with a pink hat carrying a fish bowl came out.
Lisa: This specimen seems to be my new test subject, hello!
Lincoln: I don't ---
Lisa: Are you kidding me? We should say hi...
Lincoln: Okay.. If you are so sure...
Lisa and Lincoln went out the door and headed up to the pink-hatted boy.
Lisa: Salutations odd-looking homosapien.. I am Lisa.. Can I see your brain?
The boy looked scared.
Lincoln: What my sister was TRYING to say was.. It's nice to meet you. What's your name? I'm Lincoln.
Timmy: Well, I am Timmy. My parents and best friend and I were just on a vacation, and I was worried I would attract weirdos.. Your sister was exactly who I was fearing AND dreading..
Lincoln: Ah. Don't worry. Lisa is harmless..
Lisa: Yeah. I have the intellect of Einstein, can do any experiment known to mankind, and even love to scheme and plot a lot..... But I am harmless.
Timmy: Thank goodness!! I was expecting someone scarier. Like my 5th grade teacher Mr. Crocker...
Lisa: Well, you won't find anyone like that here. Why don't we introduce you to our family, and then show you around town..
Timmy: I'd like that... Lemme consult my goldfish.
He whispered down to his fish who looked round and plump. One had green eyes, one had pink eyes, one had purple eyes, and the odd-one out was all blue.
Lisa: Wow. I think we attracted a weirdo..
Lincoln: Ahhh.. Yeah, I'm not --
Lisa went up to Timmy who was whispering to the fish.
Lisa: Are you ready to meet our family or not?
Timmy: Sure. I am!
The three went inside the Loud House, which, as you'd expect, got very loud.
The remaining siblings were all in the living room watching the Dream Boat.
Lisa: I would like to introduce you all to someone.
Leni: OOOHH! Is he cute?
Lisa: Unfortunately, no. I would like you all to meet Timmy. He has been vacationing here, and I would like you all to get to know him.
Lola: What's in it for us, Lisa? You aren't trying to blackmail us again?
Lisa grinned sheepishly, then stopped.
Lisa: Nooo, dear sister.. It's useful to make a new friend... Even one who talks to oddly colored goldfish, but yeah...
Lori: There is literally NO WAY I'd like to meet a weirdo who talks to fish!!
Lisa: Please!! Lincoln, back me up.
Lincoln: Yeah. I think he is really nice..
Timmy: I couldn't help but overhear.. My mom just texted and said I need to get home by 5:00, it's already 3:30.. Aren't you going to show me around town or not?
Lisa: We are.
Lynn: Count me out.. I have a basketball competition I need to be at!!
Lola: And I need to go to a beauty pageant!!
Leni: Well, I wanna go to the mall!!!
Lisa: QUIET!! We can go to ALL those things.. Timmy, you wouldn't mind watching us do this, would you?
Timmy: Not at all. But if it will be quick. As I mentioned, before, I have to get home by 5.
Lisa: No problem. I also need to run something over to the community college. My "friend"..
Lisa blushed and giggled.
Lisa: Ahem. Wants me to tutor someone.. And he mentioned nothing about this specimen...
Timmy: Uhh.. Oookay..
Lincoln: And Clyde and I planned to meet at Gus's Games & Grub... Sooo..
Timmy: Well, we could do all that tomorrow... I dunno..
He whispered to his fish again. Pink smoke came out from the fish bowl.
Lincoln: What was that?
Timmy: Nothing. Let's go.
Lola whispered to Lisa.
Lola: Where'd you find this nut?
Lisa shrugged.
Then all 11 siblings, plus Timmy all headed out the door.
First they stopped at Clyde's house.
Lincoln: CLYDE! I have someone I wanna introduce you to!!
Clyde: Who is it?
Timmy: Hello! I am Timmy!!
Clyde: Okay. That's nice, Lincoln. Please tell me he isn't replacing me!
Lincoln: Nah, not at all. He is just vacationing here and we all decided to make him feel welcome.
Suddenly, Lori got within Clyde's eyesight.
Clyde nosebleeds and passed out.
Clyde: Lo-Lo-ri!
Lincoln turned to Timmy.
Lincoln: What I forgot to mention is that my friend Clyde has a BIG crush on my older sister, Lori.
Timmy: I know the feeling of crushing hard.. Two words. Trixie Tang.
Lincoln: I can relate. Kinda.. My crush and I have a complicated relationship.. Then last month she moved. I miss her.
Lisa: Well. Can't we all get to the community college now?
Lincoln: Hold on! Clyde and I were heading to Gus's Games and Grub with Timmy!
Lisa rolled her eyes.
Lisa: Fine.
Timmy whispered to his fishbowl yet again.
Lisa noticed this.
Lisa: One question. Why do you keep doing that?
Timmy: No reason.. Why do you do science?
Lisa: Touche.
Lincoln: Okay. Now on to Gus's Games and Grub!!
Lucy came up to Lincoln.
Lucy: I don't mean to be a bother. But shouldn't we show Timmy who Great Grandma Harriet is?
Lincoln: You know.. Maybe we could do that at the very end...
Lucy: But we have dinner pretty soon.. And..
Lincoln: I know. Let's go.
They then reached Gus's Games & Grub.
Clyde and Lincoln rushed to the games.
The sisters were all at a booth with Timmy.
Lisa: So. Where are you from?
Timmy: Dimmsdale. It's far away.
Lucy: Do you like spooky things?
Timmy: I'm not sure I do.. Depends..
Lucy: You know.. Like ghosts?
Timmy's eyes got wide.
Timmy: My parents were ghost hunters back in the day, and they claimed they saw some spooky stuff.
Lucy's stoic frown became a smile.
Lucy: Wicked.
Lola: Are you willing to play princess with me? You could be my prince!!
Timmy: I don't think so.
Lana: See, I told you he didn't want to play princess with you, Lola. But surely, Timmy, would you play in the mud with me?
Timmy: That sounds gross.
Lola: Ha. I knew it. I knew it all along.
Luna: Surely you are into music.
Timmy: Actually. I am. My favorite singer is Chip Skylark.
Luna: Awesome! Except I have no idea who Chip Skylark is, sorry little dude.
Timmy: He isn't really that known except in my town. He actually sang a song about my babysitter. Vicky. She is one girl I would NEVER want to get to know..
Leni: Do you like the mall?
Timmy: Not really. It's kinda boring.
Lynn: Surely you like basketball. Or baseball. Or even football!
Timmy: I have played soccer, but I wasn't too good. And my friend Chester is on a baseball team.. Yet he always gets picked last, since he's not so good either.
Lynn: Oh. Well, I could teach you in all sports known!!
Lisa: Yes. I think you've gotten to know my siblings quite well. Lori's the oldest and always absorbed in her phone (she pointed to Lori who was indeed texting), Leni is the ditz who knows nothing other than the mall (she pointed to Leni, who was staring off into space), Luna is the musician.. But that's all she does, pretty much (she pointed to Luna who was drumming on the table), Luan is the one who turns EVERYTHING into a joke (she pointed to Luan who was chuckling), Lynn is the sports fanatic, clearly (she pointed to Lynn, who just shrugged), and surely you know Lincoln by now.. Always into his comics, hanging with Clyde, and well. That's it (she pointed to Lincoln, who was all the way in the back with Clyde), and of course Lucy's always into all the macabre things. Ghosts, goblins, vampires, you name it, Lucy's into it (she pointed to Lucy who was looking at a ouija board), and surely you've met the twins. Lana, who is very gross, tomboyish, and somewhat naive (she pointed to Lana, who was playing with her food), and Lola, who is very condescending, girly, and pretty (she pointed to Lola, who was looking at herself in the mirror), and I am a genius to no prevail, I love science, and I require test subjects in my plans... And of course here is Lily (she pointed to the baby in a high-chair), there is not much to say about her, except she poops in her diaper A LOT.
Timmy: So... You kinda lost me, Lisa.. But yeah. Your family is HUGE. I wish I had siblings.. Clearly my house gets lonely.
The fish in the fish bowl got an idea, but discarded it.
Lisa: I WISH I could trade with you, you know. My siblings AREN'T as smart as me.. More, perhaps as smart as you. You know?
Timmy: I know -
Lisa: What do your grades look like?
Timmy: Huh, say what?
Lisa: I'm curious as to what your grades in school are. I get the top marks, clearly.
Timmy: Well.. I get F's... But I try my hardest in school, at least. I think..
Lisa: And why would you get F's if you try hard in school?
Timmy: It's my crack-pot teacher, Mr. Crocker. He ALWAYS fails me. And it's not just me. It's everyone in my class. Even my friend AJ who is just as smart as you.
Lisa: Fascinating... I will have to do some brain tests on this Crocker specimen...
Timmy: Don't! You might make it worse.
Lisa: Oookay..
Lincoln and Clyde had finished up their game.
Lincoln: Okay. Lisa. We can now go to the community college now.
Lisa: Eee! Finally!!
Lisa then ran out the door with excitement.
Timmy: What's her deal? It's just college..
Lincoln: Well, you'll find out. Soon enough.
The rest of the sisters, Lincoln, Clyde and Timmy went out of Gus's Games and Grub and caught up with Lisa.
They made it to the community college, which was just a few blocks away from Gus's Games & Grub.
Suddenly, a good looking brown haired male with a preppy look approached Lisa.
Lisa giggled and smiled widely.
Lisa: Hey, Hugh...
Lisa giggled some more.
Timmy: Soo.. THIS is why Lisa wanted to go to the community college?
Lincoln: Yup. That is why.
Hugh: Greetings, Loud family! I see you brought company.
Hugh pointed to Clyde and Timmy.
Lincoln: Yes. This is my best friend Clyde... And here's Timmy, someone who is vacationing here...
Hugh: Well. That is quite smashing!
Timmy: Does this guy always use outdated British terms?
Lisa overheard.
Lisa: Shut up, Timmy. It's dreamy!
Timmy: Wow.
Timmy then whispered to his goldfish again.
Lisa: Yeah, Hugh, you should know something.
Lisa giggled again.
Lisa: This Timmy specimen keeps whispering to his goldfish. It's weird..
Hugh: I say! Well, YOU'VE done some kind of weird stuff, you know...
Lisa remembered the times when she first met Hugh - she used him for an anatomy class and forced him to show her his six-pack and butt - and when she cloned him, not once, but twice, and when she kept Hugh's DNA and labeled it as "Hunky specimen DNA".
Lisa: But those were all for science.........
Lisa grinned sheepishly.
Hugh: Riiigght...
Lincoln: Enough, Lisa. Let's go. We have to go home, it's almost dinner... And Timmy's folks are probably wondering where he is...
Lisa: FINE!
She then snapped a picture of Hugh from her phone that was handed down from Lori.
Lisa: BYE Hughie!!
She flipped her hair and left with her siblings, Clyde, and Timmy.
They first dropped Clyde off at his house.
Clyde's dads were at the front door.
Lisa: We got him home in one piece.
Clyde saw Lori and nosebleeds all over the couch.
Lisa: Well. Almost one piece.
Howard: That's nice!!
Clyde: Dads. Lori. Pretty.
Harold: We'll need to get some dinner in him stat!
Then the Louds and Timmy headed to Timmy's vacationing house.
Timmy: Well. It was nice hanging with you all. I had fun.
Lincoln: Don't mention it!!
Lisa: And mind if I have ONE strand of DNA?
Timmy: Uh.. I better go...
He then entered the house.
Lincoln: Lisa, you do not go around asking people for their DNA!
Lola: Yeah! It's weird!!
Lisa: Okay, okay... But I got one piece of his hair when he wasn't looking anyways...
Lincoln: LISA!
The siblings then went home where their parents greeted them.
Lynn Sr: Sooo. How was the big adventure?
Rita: You kids had fun?
Loud siblings (in unison): We sure did!!
Rita: Good. Because dinner is getting cold.
They then ate up their meal and enjoyed it.
Meanwhile, at the Turner House...
Timmy's parents were preparing dinner.
Chloe entered the room.
Chloe: I had an AMAZING time! I volunteered at the local library, then the animal shelter, THEN THE ZOO!!! Are you just as excited as I am!!??!!
Timmy: Ecstatic. But I met a very interesting family!
Mrs. Turner: And who was that?
Timmy: I think their last name was Loud.. Well. They were nice. I even got to meet some of their friends as well... A British tutor named Hugh... And a nosebleeding geek named Clyde.. He mainly just hung out with Lincoln. He has white hair. Awfully strange, I'd say..
Mr. Turner: Well.. They sound FAR better than that..... DINKLEBERG back home...
Chloe: Aw come on, Mr. Turner. EVERYONE deserves a second chance!!
Timmy: And if you don't mind.. Chloe and I will be up in our room.
They headed upstairs.
Suddenly, the fish came out of their fishbowl, and turned into floating creatures.
One had green hair, wore a white button-up top with a black tie.
One had long pink hair, wore a yellow tee-shirt, and yellow earrings.
One was circular, and wore all purple.
And one was blue and square with facial hair. He was the odd one out, since he was only a guest in this vacation. Not part of the family.
Timmy: You guys. I don't know what to do. The Loud family from across the street think I am kinda weird...
Cosmo: What's a Loud?
Wanda: You know, that family who Timmy was with all day, you idiot!!
Cosmo: Ahhhhhhhhh.. I saw a very beautiful blonde with sunglasses......
Wanda: You're a married man!!
Poof: Poof, poof!! (translation: And that blonde was named Leni!)
Foop: Well, I certainly DID NOT see this vacation coming that's for sure... I was trying to plot some certain persons' demise.. When POOF. I ended up here!
Timmy: Well, Foop, being in Dimmsdale with Vicky was just not safe. You know what she's like!
Foop: I know. But I could've been up in Anti Fairy World with mommy and daddy!!
Timmy: I know. But Jorgen threatened to ban all anti fairies, too. It might not be safe.
Cosmo: WAIT! Jorgen's evil?
Wanda: Well. We all didn't see it coming.. Until, well.. The Fairy Council retired, and now Jorgen's running the show!
Poof: Poof, poof. (translation: It really stinks what Jorgen did.)
Foop: UGH! Well, at least ONE good thing came out of it...
Timmy: What might that be?
Foop: That Loud girl with the glasses.... Lisa. Was it?
Timmy: Annnd..
Poof: Poof, poof. (translation: I don't see what that has to do with anything..)
Foop: Don't you see? I kinda feel like I can relate to her, you know..
Wanda: You barely know her.
Cosmo: I don't remember there being a Lisa... Let's see.. Luan. Luna. Lunch. Lincoln. Lola. Lona. Milk?
Wanda: You got almost all of them right.. But seriously? Milk and Lunch? There were no siblings called that! And it's Lana, not Lona..
Cosmo: Silly me.... Well. I'm off to meet the Loud kids now..
Wanda: That's against Da Rules. Now get back in the fish bowl. I sense parental units approaching...
The fairies went in the fish bowl.
Mr. Turner came barging in.
Mr. Turner: Timmy. Don't tell your mom this.. But..
Mrs. Turner overheard.
Mrs. Turner: Don't tell your mom... WHAT?
Mr. Turner: Sea Cucumber!
Then he ran out of the room as Mrs. Turner began to chase him.
Timmy: Well. That's it. I'm off to the Loud's house. Lincoln and I found we both like the Crimson Chin!!
Chloe: And. Well. I'd actually like to meet them, you know..
Timmy: Why?
Chloe: I'd like to make some new friends, too..
Timmy: Fine. And I'll bring my goldfish. They could be useful.
Chloe: Okay!
Meanwhile, back in Dimmsdale.
Vicky was torturing many kids when Mr. Crocker came up to her.
Mr. Crocker: Timmy is GONE! He didn't show up to school!!
Vicky: It's summer vacation.. And now that you think of it.. I didn't babysit the twerp all week!!
Mr. Crocker: And I could only suspect.... FAIRY GodPARENTS!!
Vicky: Suuuuree.. But I think I know where that twerp was headed.... Royal Woods, Michigan. And he didn't even invite me!!
Mr. Crocker: Or me! But we will crash his party!!
Back in Royal Woods.
Timmy went to the Loud's house and rang the doorbell. Lincoln answered it.
Timmy: Hey Lincoln!
Lincoln: Hey!
Timmy: This is Chloe.
Chloe: Hello!
Lincoln: She's not your girlfriend.. Is she?
Timmy: Heavens no!
Chloe: We are just friends!
Lincoln: Uh. Okay. Come in!
Lincoln noticed Timmy had brought the fish bowl again.
Lincoln: What are those?
Timmy: My god-p. Godfish.. Goldfish.
Lincoln: Riiiight...
Lisa came rushing downs the stairs.
Lincoln: What is it, sis?
Lisa: I just found something HUGE!! You see. With both my sources of DNA from Hugh and that Timmy....
Timmy overheard.
Timmy: Say what now?
Lisa stopped and grinned sheepishly.
Lisa: Noooothing... Anyways.. I found that FAIRIES. Do exist! Originally... I thought it was preposterous ever since I heard a weird, hunched specimen on the news talk about them.... But with Timmy's DNA.. I found fairy dust all over. It wasn't typical. Which is why I had dug down deeper.. Apparently. Get this. There is an opposite for every fairy... An anti-fairy, if you will.. Sooo. He has fairies... And an anti fairy is along for the ride...
The rest of the sisters overheard then came rushing down.
Lola: SO. THAT'S why he was whispering to his fish bowl!!
Lisa: Correct, elder sister.
Lana: Can we eat them?
Lisa: I don't think that is even legal...
Lynn: Do fairies know about sports?
Timmy knew this would happen.
Timmy: QUIET! I do NOT have fairies!!
Lisa: All the proof is in your DNA.
Timmy: And how might you have obtained that?
Lisa: Remember when we dropped you off at your house? I cut a strand of your hair. Well.. Maybe more than a strand... Ooops..
Timmy: LISA! I .. Why?
Lincoln: Told you she does anything for science...
Lisa: Correct! And this is a new scientific breakthrough!! Wait till I tell the world!
Timmy: You can't..
The fairies were in the fishbowl resting, but they overheard the commotion.
They came rushing out of the bowl in their fairy form.
The Loud siblings stopped. And stared, for about 3 hours.
Lisa: I had no idea... THAT'S what they look like!!
Cosmo: Hello. I'm Cosmo. And I like string cheese!
Leni: NO WAY! I like string cheese too!!
Lisa: I presume Cosmo is the idiotic fairy.. Leni and Cosmo. Would get along great..
Wanda: Cosmo. You are STILL a MARRIED MAN!!
Lola: AND LENI. Don't you hit on some random ELF!!
Lisa: This is remarkable!! Lola and that pink-haired fairy both speak the same language. Bossy and uptight.
Wanda: It's Wanda.. And.. We cannot be exposed any longer!!
Lola: WHATEVER! I cannot STAND impudence!
Poof: Poof, poof! (translation: I like this place.)
Lily: Poo, Poo! (translation: My diaper needs changing.)
Lisa: Remarkable! There is even a fairy BABY! And he likes Lily!!
Lisa stopped as the blue cubed ANTI fairy came up to Lisa.
Foop: And I'm Foop. Not really a fairy.. Rather. An anti fairy... And yes. I am the same age as my circular counterpart.. But I am highly intelligent... And love to..
Lisa: Scheme and plot?
Foop: Correct.
Lisa grinned evilly.
Lisa: I'm sure we'll have fun together.
Foop: We could even rule the world!!
Lisa: I was thinking the universe...... But I like the way you think, square specimen...
Timmy gulped.
Timmy: This is really bad, Chloe!! Fairies can NEVER be exposed! What will Jorgen do? What if Vicky comes.. Crocker?
Chloe: Wow. Usually I worry. But, I don't think Vicky and Crocker will show up..
Suddenly, Vicky and Mr. Crocker indeed showed up. Through a portal.... That Lisa didn't create.
Timmy: GAH!!! What.. Wha...
Lisa observed Crocker and Vicky.
Lisa: Greetings weird.. homosapiens..
Vicky: I will destroy EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU BRATTY CHILDREN!!!
Mr. Crocker: And where are the FAIRIES!!!???
Timmy: This is really bad now, isn't it Chloe.
Chloe: Indeed. Hide me!
Chloe then hid under the couch.
Lisa: Calm down. I could've predicted this.. Timmy.. you know these fellows?
Timmy: Yes, Lisa. I do. That's my psychotic babysitter, Vicky (he pointed to the red-haired teen), and that is my insane teacher, Mr. Crocker (he pointed to the middle aged man with a hump in his back and his ear on his neck) And they are ALWAYS out to get me!!
Lisa: Well.. With my science experiment I've been working on... Mr. Crocker and Vicky will never remember this place. Or you. Timmy...
Timmy: What science experiment? I would do ANYTHING!!
Lisa: A large dose of chloroform, perhaps..
Vicky and Mr. Crocker overheard that and tried bolting out the door.
Lisa yelled to her siblings who pinned the evil babysitter and insane teacher down.
Lisa then went up to her lab (which was actually her room), and got the chloroform, which was in a beaker.
Lisa got test tubes and poured the chloroform in them.
She rushed downstairs.
She fed the evil two her chloroform and they passed out.
Lisa: This auta take care of them for a while.
Foop saw this and was astonished.
Foop: Think I could bring this back home and use it on Jorgen?
Lisa grinned.
Lisa: Of course you can.
She handed Foop the chloroform that was left over.
Foop laughed evilly.
Foop: Now JORGEN will never stop me from ruling the world!!
Lisa: Say. Foop.. How did you get so smart?
Foop: Well, my dad's a genius, you know..
Lisa: GADZOOKS!! NEITHER of my parents are what you'd call geniuses.. And I am still not positive how I got so smart. I was smart ever since I was around Lily's age, and possibly even before!
Foop: Well. We would make a pretty good team, right?
Lisa: Well. Yeah.. If you have magic powers... PLEASE make Hugh and I a couple!
Foop: Will do!
Lily and Poof, however were speaking their own language.
Lily: Poo, Poo! (translation: It's nice meeting you Poof!)
Poof: Poof, poof! (translation: Same. You are cute.)
Lily: Poo, poo! (translation: Thanks.)
And Lola and Wanda were bonding over.. Well, being bossy.
Wanda: Once I made Cosmo dinner... So, he refused it, naturally.. But I forced him to eat it anyways.
Lola: Something similar to that happened to me, too! Lana was supposed to be at my tea party, but she was outside playing in the mud.. So I sprayed her with the garden hose and dragged her to the tea party!
Wanda: That's.. GREAT!
Lola: I thought so.
Then Cosmo and Leni were bonding over.. Their dangerously low IQ.
Leni: Do you wanna go to the mall?
Cosmo: YES! My pet nickel, Phillip is looking forward to it!!
Cosmo showed Leni a nickel.
Leni: Is it a girl nickel?
Cosmo: YES!
Timmy saw this and fainted yet again.
He kept thinking about how Jorgen would react to the fairies being exposed. Surely he won't mind so much about Foop being exposed, but it IS Jorgen, who is very specific. Now Cosmo, Wanda, and Poof will no longer be his godparents!!
The rest of the Loud kids dragged the chloroformed Vicky and Mr. Crocker out of their house and into Mr. Grouse's trash can.
Chloe, who had stopped hiding under the couch, woke up Timmy.
Chloe: I know this is an inopportune time for the both of us.. I still don't like how that Lisa girl invaded your privacy like that.. But, as my parents ALWAYS say.. You can never get to know someone without getting to know them.
Timmy: And as my parents ALWAYS state.. Don't trust strangers.
Chloe: Come ON! Lisa sounds nice enough, right?
Timmy: Not if she is teaming up with FOOP! Who, I wasn't even sure of him coming on this trip; yet Poof insisted. In his own, unique language... Poof insisted his friend comes with him... So, I gave in, knowing that nobody will find out about fairies.. But apparently Lisa did. And we are now doomed!
Chloe: Right. We're doomed. But what if she wants to help the world than hurt it?
Timmy: If she's teaming up with Foop, she WILL hurt the world.
Chloe: Maybe this is kinda weird.. Okay. Totally weird. What if Foop is not as bad as we think, either? I mean, sure he dressed up as a girl to destroy me.. But I've chosen to forget that and forgive him...
Timmy: But what about the things he used to do to Poof.. When Foop actually tricked Cosmo & Wanda into letting him come over for a playdate, but really wanted to put Poof in a playpen of doom?
Chloe: Well, he's clearly misunderstood. Apparently, Lisa seems to understand him more than us.
Timmy: That's for sure.
Meanwhile, Vicky and Mr. Crocker woke up from the chloroform.
Vicky: That 4 year old TWERP!!!! SHE WILL PAY!!!
Mr. Crocker: Hang on.. Maybe she's the answer to my whole FAIRY problem... She knows they exist!!! Which then will make me rich!!!
Vicky: NUH UH! I will destroy her!! She will not ever know what hit her when VICKY comes into her life!!
Vicky then laughed maniacally.
Vicky barged into the Loud House yet again.
Vicky: LISA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lincoln: Uhh.. Bowser's after you, sis.
Lisa: Oh, right! Not cool, Lincoln. You know I don't get your inane video game references....
Lincoln: No. Not.. Well, that teenage babysitter who.. Yeah.. She's mad now..
Lisa: I hardly know what you are talking about.. You see-
Vicky then came up to Lisa and grabbed her.
Lisa: Ahhh.. NOW I understand... And wait.... (she turns to Vicky) I THOUGHT I CHLOROFORMED YOU!!!!!
Vicky: Not anymore, TWERP!! You will pay!! Your whole TWERPY family will pay!!!
Lisa: But.. What did I do?
Vicky: You existed! That's what you did!!
Lisa: I think I can...
Lisa then bawled her eyes out.
Lisa: You wouldn't hurt a four year old.... Would you?
Vicky: THAT'S IT!!!
Vicky pinned Lisa down, until, Lisa, who had experimented on herself weeks ago, got super strong, and pinned Vicky down. Then Lisa threw Vicky out of the house and into the McBride's pool.
Lisa: That auta take care of it. Vicky is no longer an issue.
Timmy saw everything and was impressed.
Timmy: Lisa. I had no idea.. HOW?
Lisa: Well, it was no fairy magic, that's for sure. You see, every day, I experiment. Science experiments, that is.. And I've pretty much discovered a lot. And.. I promise I won't tell anyone about your fairies. Not even Hugh (who will be my husband when I get to 17...)
Timmy: Okay. Creepy on the last part.. But I understand. I should never have doubted you.. Even if you were hanging out with Foop. I just get scared.. Scared that I will lose my fairy godparents just for them getting revealed. But, one thing, Lisa..
Lisa: What?
Timmy: Don't tell Jorgen.
Lisa: You've got it!!
Timmy then left the Louds House with his fairies, Foop, and Chloe.
Lisa: That Timmy is sure nice..
Lucy: Sigh. What did I miss?
Lisa: Tons.
Luan: I missed something as well... Got milk. HA! Get it?
Lisa: I don't think that was -
Lori: Oh, please.. Sooo, what was the deal with the fairies anyways? I literally have to tell Bobby Boo Boo Bear!
Lincoln: And I have to tell Ronnie Anne!!
Lola: And.. I'm telling mom!
Luna: Well, Sam HAS to know about this!
Lana: Well, if Sam has to know.. Then so does Skippy!!
Lynn: OH NO!!! Nobody's telling anyone.. Okay.. You heard Timmy!
Lisa: Thank you Lynn. Exactly what I was going to say. Nobody else should know about it...
Lisa then went up to her room, and closed the door.
She picked up her phone and dialed up David's number.
Lisa: You won't believe what happened tonight.... But you can't tell anyone....
Lisa (to viewers): I know I said I wouldn't tell anyone about Timmy's fairies.. But I couldn't resist telling David..
