Ceo!price is driving me nuts so I'm sorry I'm brain dumping rn please forgive me
How about another CEO offers reader a job? A higher paying job with a much better work load by some dream come true. Maybe Price found out about this offer for spice reasons. (Heheh)
Does Price finally pull his head out of his ass? Does he threaten the other CEO? The petty bastard would probably cut all business deals with the other man. Maybe he uses his giant brain to "charm" reader. Which includes a mass amount of gifts and dinner invitations to places that cost more than your damn apartment.
Reader walks in and there's a vase of flowers larger than their head sitting on their desk, along with a dinner invitation to a restaurants name they can't pronounce. Price wants to "talk things over" which mostly means attempting to seduce slight obvious and completely tired reader.
Here's the thing.
You're not oblivious. You're fully, painfully, aware that your boss is trying to fuck you. Even if he hadn't flat out told you that he wants to "eat you like a Sunday roast" the shameless amount of sex toys, and porno mag subscriptions that he orders to the office on his company card would have tipped you off. You would have to be blind and deaf not to know he was trying to fuck you and even then you're sure he'd find some way to spell it out for you. Probably would put his dick in your hands while you were signing at him to fuck off.
You also know that every single other assistant he's had he slept with. All of them were hired specifically to be a work in sex toy, and all of them absolutely fucked over the company because of it. The only condition for your ludicrously high salary and thorough benefits package was that you not fuck your boss, and you gotta say: you don't want to.
The man is a shameless flirt, he's a pervert, and it's a wonder he manages to run the company when he's out golfing with his buddies every other day. You hate him for dumping his work load on your desk and then offering to dump a load in your cunt as well. You hate him for crowding your desk with flowers and Tiffany jewelry boxes, and for inviting you out to dinners that are worth more than your rent because you're not a fucking escort and you're not playing hard to get, you're just trying to do your fucking job.
His attempts at seduction are almost insulting and his presumption that he can buy you definitely is. If anything all of his attempts to get in your pants just make you hate him more. If someone offered you another job you'd take it in an instant and forget this whole nightmare.
Except you aren't getting any job offers and despite your impressive resume you're not getting even a nibble. The job market sure is a lot harder when you know your boss is sabotaging you, huh?
#x reader#cod x reader#ceo!price#assistant!reader#you seem to think that reader is just not seeing how great a guy Price is#when he is in fact a sleazeball#captain john price#f!reader

great news
i've been doing that for three months!
this is Wade. putting uhhhh. a small* ramble about them under the cut bc. i like them very much ^^ no obligation to read it tho
*it's not small anymore. oopsies
ok so, as previously mentioned, this is Wade. he/they during the events of the game. they'll eventually go by she/they/he but well. (wade voice) "i might be transfem but i have to get out of this timeloop so idrc about that rn"
her personality is actually very similar to Siffrin's already -- the main difference is that she's more lowkey. more eepy. also more anxious but don't worry about that. also she's tall
Wade is the only one with a design rn but i have ocs assigned to each of the major characters...!! except um Bonnie might have two ocs. don't ask me how that works i am trying really really hard to figure it out. long story short one of them (Ji, he/she) is literally perfect for Bonnie story-wise bc in their original story Ji already has an awkward relationship with Wade because of his injured eye... but one of my MAIN ocs (Neri, xe/they/she) has the perfect personality for Bonnie and also if i leave xem out i will be so so sad and they don't fit any of the other characters in isat... i'm. suffering. also also you can see a very rough design for Atlas (she/her) (Mirabelle's role) in that three panel doodle comic. anyway this post is about WADE. and also maybe VALENCE
"who's Valence" I'M GLAD YOU ASKED. my oc filling in Loop's role. it/its. name pronounced vay-lence (after valence electrons, or electrons in the outermost orbit of an atom). nicknamed V by Wade. already has a character arc centered around identity issues and being a clone (though IRONICALLY, in its original story it's not a clone of Wade, it's a clone of the character who takes the role of the King here!! very fun!! i like this fun fact a lot!!!!). already has an extremely sifloop-like relationship (and i mean this in most of the fucked up ways too) with Wade. does anyone wanna take a wild guess why i immediately latched onto isat so hard
anyway i have been. very excited about this au for the past several months heh. as a bonus for making it to the end of my. um. very long ramble about my beloved ocs have a VERY rough Valence design that i don't even think i like very much that i sketched out at school today. it looks way too much like Loop but i don't know how to make it look distinct enough without having to step away from the star motif which i love soooo very much. i'll just have to figure it out lol
Hey. Take my hand. You should swap an In Stars and Time character with one of your OCs whether that means an AU or outfit swap, regardless of if you'd rather focus more on the ISAT character or the OC
#isat spoilers#twohats spoilers#i havent posted most of this art to tumblr yet??? for some reason???#ummmmmmmm. should i tag with my ocs#well. at least i'll tag with#isat au#molls' fucking creechurs#< oc tag

"Was that guy bothering you again?" Negan's voice came from behind you and you spun to look at him. He was leaning on a 2x4 board he had apparently been using for repairs.
"What?"
"The, uhh, big burly guy with the pronounced brow line that makes him look like a fucking neanderthal. That has to be the guy you punched out a couple weeks ago. Right?"
You stared at him, perplexed. "How do you even know about that?"
"I keep my eyes and ears open, doll. So, is he bothering you again? Because I'd have no problem introducing his fucking caveman face to the end of this piece of lumber," Negan said.
You rolled your eyes. "You really need to stop flirting with murderous innuendo."
"It's not working?"
You reached out and placed your hand in the center of his chest for a very brief moment, almost like an affectionate pat. "Know your audience, Negan," you said, before turning away again. Negan found himself smiling and reaching up to touch the same place himself, sharply aware of the tingling of electricity you left behind.
A/N: Happy Wicked Wednesday!

i really like the idea of acting shipping spy and punk because they’re sooooooo fucking not compatible but there’s some aspects of each other that are and i’m just smashing these two together
spy takes terry to a fancy dinner to “reconcile their differences”. spy is fully aware that this act just reinforces terry’s hatred of him for being a rich motherfucker and it is completely on purpose to screw with him. terry accepts it anyways seeing it as a challenge and shows up in a surprisingly nice suit and tie. when spy comments on how he didn’t expect terry to have a suit, terry explains one of his friends in his projects is a tailor and he was able to get a suit tailored for him on short notice. as well, terry reminds him, he’s also being paid a fuckton of money for being a mercenary besides him also having a side job as musician, he very much can afford it he just chooses to donate most of his money to charity and welfare projects for his community, which is what spy should be doing. spy scoffs
they go inside and get seated, being handed their menus which are entirely in french. Spy starts mocking terry for it until he realizes that terry’s actually able to read the menu. terry laughs at him mentioning how a good amount of political theory is in french. the two don’t make any small talk while they choose their order and mostly just look around while sometimes condescendingly staring at each other
when the waiter comes back, they both do their orders, and terry ends up pronouncing the french words really badly which gives a good ego boost to spy. terry finishes up his order, which could basically be translated as straighr up giving terry raw fancy steak, and the waiter gets ready to walk off when spy randomly says they’re gonna be ordering the fanciest wine on the menu. terry makes a snide remark about how he’s really trying to test terry’s bank account and then spy says he’s paying entirely for this evening of theirs.
the waiter walks off and terry is suddenly much more vocal then he was the entire night, demanding to know why the fuck spy was being so nice to him all of a sudden, starting to believe that spy got terry as a target and now he was gonna assasinate him. spy shuts down his conspiring quickly and says he just wants to be nice and for them to get over their differences, with spy handing over a notebook and pen for terry, saying to start writing down names of places he wanted spy to donate money. terry assumes he’s lying and writes down bullshit at first but rhen starts actually listing off preferred charities and organizations and some requested amounts.
the food and wine comes and it’s fancy ass food what do you expect. spy gets horrified at terry literally mauling at his steak like a dog and getting cow blood all over his face, but this is pretty typical of terry so it’s not shocking. terry is starting to get piss drunk over wine, and starts going on about how spy wasn’t that bad of a guy after all, which spy was mildly amused by until terry apparently reached his threshold to get sad drunk and started crying over a friend who he apparently “let die” and was making a small scene, so spy paid the cheque quickly and dragged terry to his car
terry started drunkenly raving and crying about how he was such a horrible person and nobody should even be around him and he doesn’t do good for anyone, and spy to the best of his ability tries to calm him down until terry passes out. spy figured he was gonna be the designated driver so he didn’t drink any alcohol and decided to drive terry home. about halfway through terry woke back up and realized what happened and started frantically apologizing but spy told him it was fine and he should just go back to sleep, which terry did promptly
when terry woke up, he was alone in his room tucked in bed with the sun starting to peek out of his window. there was a note next to him, which simply read
“i’ll see you next week for when you’re trying to kill me again”

maffhew who refuses to say runebergin torttu because he knows hes gonna butcher it so bad he might be kicked out of the country the second he tries and staunchly avoids that by going "the one dessert that barky is going to have to explain 😃"
sasha who gets faced with the most generic description of everything hes ever eaten in his life so far because of maffhew and going "???... oh you mean runebergin torttu!"
"he did good he liked the food and he likes the finland so far so its good" sasha says with so much pride now that all the anxiety has left his system that his husband teammate is enjoying his country and doesnt hate it
media availability | 10.29.24 (x)(x)
the smile of a man who knowlingly doomed his husband and said husband using all his brain power to context clues his way to whatever the fuck he just got asked that his brain is running hotter than a mid 2012 macbook air thats somehow still alive in the year of the lord 2024 but girl does she chug along shes louder than a fighter jet

you ever realize you never properly learned how to say a character's name, so by the time you finally HEAR it, you have no idea who they're talking about? cause I feel like I keep doing this and it's very confusing to keep being corrected like that
#I have this habit of only reading the first few letters and then completely skimming over the rest of a name#which leads me to just. totally making it up#ko-she-key (koschei from doctor who) and tin-tall-gia (tintaglia from the rain wild chronicles) are my favorite names that I've fucked up#the funniest part is I only sometimes chose to recognize the mistake and fix it#I do not think those two will ever be pronounced correctly. I just. can't. that's who they are to me#plus soz but you're a liar if you're gonna tell me the way I say “ko-she-key” isn't an infinitely more fun way to pronounce it#even if it is... y'know... just not even the same name FFVJVFJ#I'm not tagging either media cause I mean whatever if you find it good for you but I NEEDED to show off how egregious those examples are#I'm being so fucking serious when I said I SKIM over these names. I didn't even know how to spell them I had to look it up#in fact I was so shocked about tintaglia I had to rewrite hers three separate times#I have never in my life paid any closer attention to these names and after this I will continue not doing so#they are “kosheci-said-with-a-hard-c-for-some-reason” and “tintalgia” to me thank you and goodnight#—:*after these messages we'll be righttttt back*:—

sorry i do think that if you are a youtuber who speaks in depth on japanese pop culture and web media et cetera you should figure out how to pronounce names and places and words correctly
#if you're speaking to me about a mangaka or a celebrity and you cant even bother to pronounce their name correctly i dont care anymore tbh#like your words have substantially less merit to me if you can't have the basic decency to figure out how to pronounce a name.#and i dont want any of that quirky bullshit they do where they edit in a black screen w text thats like oops butchered this pronunciation!#like omgggg fuck offff im so serious. so annoying to me without fail

the thing abt toothless and hiccup is that toothless is just as obsessed with hiccup as hiccup is with toothless. if their roles were reversed toothless would also have drawings of hiccup above his bed.
#sorry thinking abr httyd is one of the only things keeping me sane at work#im imagining a body swap where the lesson is to teach the other to be happy as who they are but theyre like wtf. this is awesome.#hiccup: FUCK yes im a DRAGON / toothless: opposable thumbs!!!!!!!!#and they are so obsessed with each other they learned each others language (a little shit bc they cant pronounce it in their original#tongues but they got the spirit) so thats fine. the only problem is maneuvering the body but even that eventually evens out.#then they have some antagonist stop by idk and they have to imitate each other and they are UNCANNILY GOOD AT IT.#the only problem is the guy disrespects hiccup* and while hiccup wants toothless to negotiate toothless is like. fuck this *attacks*#hiccup: toothless! you know thats not how we do things!#toothless: i cant translate perfectly + he was disrespecting us + it didnt even hurt him bc your body is so short and scrawny#hiccup: hey.. i know but hey..#anyways. sane thoughts.

okay i know i said yeseo is dense but manages to make it endearing. but over 130 chapters in with him still being this like...not even dense really its more like he's refusing to learn or change his biased preconceptions about cedric, now im starting to wanna strangle him a bit.
#like. dude. how much linger are you gonna refuse to examine everything he's doing for you ans how he cares for you#sure you're friends now but this is like. insane how much you just assume mean intent from him#AND LIKE. YOU CAN ASSUME GOOD INTENT FROM HIS MOTHER JUST FINE??? AND THEYRE SUPER SIMILAR#hes just super autistic can you please be a bit more receptive towards his emotionsss#and like. its not that yeseo is Unkind to cedric but he does not at ALL realize just how unfavorably biased he is towards him#and it sucks sooooo bad#not that cedric is entirely blameless he needs to control his temper and do away w at least a bit of his pride#(cough stubbornness)#but like. come ON yeseo#i know you have a mental divide between you and these people bc youre like 'im in a book and they actuallynlive in this world'#but it is so extremely pronounced with cedric#he can treat everyone else as a person instead of a character EXCEPT cedric#even worse is that he doesnt even treat him as a Character bc good characters are non-static. they grow and change#he treats cedric like he is completely static and will always be exactly the way he is in the book and it drives me fucking insaneee#it huuurts like. its not even funny to me at this point. yeseo can you please view him as his own person for 2 secondsss#EDIT: IM STILL UPSET LIKE. YESEO. HOW DO YOU HEAR CEDRIC LEGIT GO 'as you wish' AND NOT GET IT#YOU RECOGNIZE EVERY REFERENCE THE AUTHOR MADE SO FAR BUT NOT THAT ONE??? BE SERIOUS

my worst enemy are catalan words that end in -ny. i simply cannot seem to properly pronounce them i'm afraid :(
#i just heard out loud how you are supposed to pronounce 'fortuny'#guess who was pronouncing it wrong#i get that it's supposed to sound similar to an ñ#but even though my mouth just cannot seem to be able to make that sound#my true mortal enemy is this festivity they do in my dad's hometown... i don't even know how to write the name down wait#mig any#<- okay so that. how the fuck do you pronounce that#my family and i really struggle. we say something like 'michan' and sometimes 'michani'. it really makes us fight for our lives

For anyone keeping track (no one), I have started watching the first Avengers film (MCU not the 60s TV show) but only while eating lunch so it's gonna take a while. So far Nick Fury has been assembling the Avengers (the film was initially released in the UK as Avengers Assemble - because of that 60s TV show - but it's not called that on D+ so I'm calling it what the Americans called it, just FYI) even though there's not yet anything for them to avenge as That Suit Guy (j/k I know his name too!!) isn't dead yet, and now they're on THE FUCKING VALIANT FROM DR WHO and I assume we're gonna continue assembling for a while as they're not all there yet.
MEANWHILE Loki (who is neither an alligator nor a woman in this???) is in a SECRET UNDERGROUND LAIR with a bunch of his stans who are... idk something technobabble that involves irridium and anti-protons. He is there looking for the tesseract on behalf of ???? who I know will be revealed 47 films from now as... no, wait, it wasn't, was it? That was just announced on a website or something? So it could be LITERALLY ANYONE. The Avengers (in-progress) also seem to be after that thing, but I have already forgotten why everyone is wanting it, assuming it was mentioned (it probably was).
Thor hasn't shown up yet, but Arrows Hawkeye is working as a Loki Stan and there's Steve Rogers and THE HULK and The Only Woman One, whose power is that she's a Cold War assassin (??) and I think this one is the film where she gets called a cunt (!) and honestly I am not sure which of the men she's getting officially shipped with, I think Arrows Hawkeye though? Fairly sure, as the alternative is that a man and a woman like each other as people but not in a lusty way, which would never happen obviously. (Hey I may ship mostly het* pairings but I don't always like it!)
Based on the Valiant (if u don't know who she is get da hell out of here!) I am guessing that the film ends with Loki dying in Thor's arms romantically but then I remembered that I know it can't because one of Loki got kidnapped from... either the end of this film or the start of the next one or POSSIBLY just from a later film's time-travel bit (???) but like... maybe they've edited this film secretly and I was right after all? But nobody else has watched it on Disney + recently so nobody knows yet? IT COULD HAPPEN.
Not sure what to make of this film so far, a lot's been going on yet also not much has been going on, and the one I like best so far (Suit Guy) is gonna die (NOT EVEN IN THOR'S ARMS ROMANTICALLY) and god Iron Man really hasn't aged well now that we have that one tech billionaire being a twat in public all the time to remind us what such people tend to be like. WHERE IS THOR????
*I say het but everyone in everything is bisexual, I know this because I thought of it and announced it on tumblr and will now say "I don't make the rules" to make it an objective FACT. I don't make the rules!!!
#the avengers (mcu edition not the 60s one)#(though if u close one eye and tilt ur head the black widow looks a wee bit like emma peel maybe?)#i like to think the lair of loki stans exists after this to post angrily on social media about how actually he did nothing wrong etc etc#let me know if loki's just working from a subway station that's still in use in this that'd be hilarious he'd be so annoyed by it all#torn on the tortured-by-thanos issue so far he does look messy but he might just have the flu and didn't want to back out#a lot of people are depending on him to jumpstart a movie superhero franchise he can't just take the day off can he#if loki took care of himself thor would be LITERALLY UNEMPLOYED how could he? how could YOU?#(the 'god of thunder' thing isn't a job he doesn't get paid for it so it's just a hobby)#(he doesn't even monetise that hobby! you think iron man would give you storms for free? EXACTLY. he'd have a patreon AT LEAST)#(“if you enjoyed this torrential rain pls tip me on ko-fi which is not pronounced like you think it is because it's a really BAD pun”)#and whatever the fuck my loki character tag was#like i said i really do need to categorise my lokis more it's been bothering me for a while#reminder: i am here because they cast a woman in a previously-male role and SHE'S NOT EVEN IN THIS FILM. OR ANY OF THEM. D:#don't think the alligator's gonna turn up here either :( :( :(#otherwise it's just kind of fascinating what this film assumes i do and don't know about these characters#nick fury's a goth right?#mcu tag

Also hot take but making fun of and mocking people for not knowing the Correct Pronunciation of something --- regardless of how "easy" it should be, or what language it's from/commonly used in, or if it 'follows the rules', etc. --- is uhhhh shitty!
#imo it's dicey to even do it as a lighthearted joke if it's not a specific person you have a specific relationship with#but so many people get genuinely condescending and shit about it and like. y'all are jerks :)#and to be clear I'm not talking about situations where someone is just being fucking racist and refusing to actually try to pronounce#someone's name right#im talking about honest and innocent not knowing how something is pronounced/not realizing they're saying it wrong/etc
