Fast forward to my guys

Does anyone else do this? I watch a film or TV series and get impatient when my crush is not on the screen but I know I need to appreciate the plot. Then I get to the end and watch it again fast forwarding to the scenes with michael/david/patrick/hugh/paul.

Charles Erskine Scott Wood, Untitled (On the Snake River), 1906, oil on canvas, 25"x30"

C.E.S. Wood may have been the most influential cultural figure in Portland in the forty years surrounding the turn of the twentieth century. He helped found the Portland Art Museum and was instrumental in making the Multnomah County Library a free and public institution. He secured the services of his friend Olin Warner, a nationally known sculptor, to design the Skidmore Fountain, and his words "Good citizens are the riches of a city" are inscribed at its base. The Portland Rose Festival was his idea. He numbered among his friends Mark Twain, Emma Goldman, John Reed, Clarence Darrow, Lincoln Steffens, Ansel Adams, John Steinbeck, Charlie Chaplin, James J. Hill, and Langston Hughes. Soldier, lawyer, poet, painter, raconteur, bon vivant, politician, free spirit, and Renaissance man, Wood might also be the most interesting man in Oregon history.

In Praise of a Teacher

by Nikki Giovanni

The reason Miss Delaney was my favorite teacher, not just my

favorite English teacher, is that she would let me read any book I

wanted and would allow me to report on it. I had the pleasure of

reading The Scapegoat as well as We the Living as well as Silver

Spoon (which was about a whole bunch of rich folk who were

unhappy), and Defender of the Damned, which was about

Clarence Darrow, which led me into Native Son because the real

case was defended by Darrow though in Native Son he got the

chair despite the fact that Darrow never lost a client to the chair

including Leopold and Loeb who killed Bobby Frank. Native Son

led me to Eight Men and all the rest of Richard Wright but I

preferred Langston Hughes at that time and Gwendolyn Brooks

and I did reports on both of them. I always loved English because

whatever human beings are, we are storytellers. It is our stories

that give a light to the future. When I went to college I became a

history major because history is such a wonderful story of who we

think we are; English is much more a story of who we really are.

It was, after all, Miss Delaney who introduced the class to My

candle burns at both ends; /It will not last the night; /But, ah, my

foes, and, oh, my friends— /It gives a lovely light. And I thought

YES. Poetry is the main line. English is the train.

Deus Ex in Yuletide 2022

Did I mentioned the Deus Ex series is nominated in this year's Yuletide fic exchange too? And presumably there's at least a couple of others interested, because folks have nominated 14 different characters (and you can only nominated 4 each). My own request letter (assorted prompts, free to a good home!) is up over here.

Full list of every nominated character below, and there are still a couple of days left for sign-ups, if you're interested (though, y'know ‒ see rules, and everything, etc).

Alejandra 'Alex' Vega

Bob Page

David Sarif

Duncan MacReady

Faridah Malik

Francis Pritchard

Hugh Darrow

Jim Miller (Deus Ex)

Talos Rucker

Vaclav Koller

Adam Jensen

Eliza Cassan

Helios (Deus Ex)

JC Denton

The downside: now I have to actually pick between officially signing up to request JC/Helios or Jensen/Pritchard, because Yuletide matching doesn't really give you a good way of signing up for either/or when there are that many other nominated characters. XD Ah well.

[kleiner-ghost]

I know this isn't what I said I was going to write next, but here's a fic exploring what it would be like for regular people to live post the Panchaea ending of Deus Ex Human Revolution.

[justintaco]

I’ve been cropping most of these screenshots pretty heavily so that the text is more visible but

I left more of the scene in here because I love the framing of all the death caused by Darrow as he nonchalantly walks past the bodies, lecturing Adam about morality and peace

[tallyarts]

Deus Ex Classpects Pt. 1

I love—LOVE—nailing down Homestuck classpects for other canons.  Here is Deus Ex.  Tell me what you think!

Adam Jensen: Heir of Doom

I mean?? Is there even an argument for Adam NOT being a Doom player? I guess you could make a case for Heart, with its impact on identity and soul, but I don't think you could have a more perfect Doom player. Class-wise, you've got a couple options for him that might fit. Rogue isn't out of the question (in which he would redistribute Doom to others) but it's too narrow—he doesn't just dole out Doom. His role in the story encompasses more than that. I like Heir for him, as Heirs tend to both embody their own aspect and find themselves at the mercy of their aspect by circumstance, without intentional action on their own part.

David Sarif: Mage of Time

David was fun to figure out. Time is always difficult to place because not only does someone have to match the personality profile, but they also have to USE the element of Time in some way, and that can be hard to find outside of canons with straight up time manipulation. But David totally fits! He's always looking to the future. Intellectually, when it comes to augmentation technology, he's ahead of the curve and he's excellent at reading the trajectory of events to ensure he comes out on top, and his innovations have a great impact on augmentation technology for years to come. Since he doesn't use this ability in service of others, that makes him an active class, and Mage (someone who uses their knowledge of their aspect to benefit themselves) is perfect.

Francis Pritchard: Knight of Void

Pretty straight forward! Pritchard's always been about secrecy and underhandedness, both before, during, AND after his employment with Sarif. He's active in his role, employing secrecy as a weapon and a tool, which makes Knight an easy call.

William Taggart: Rogue of Mind

On the surface, Taggart looks like a Life player, but that's a front. He's playing a part on behalf of his superiors. He's almost certainly Mind, able to rationalize anything, both to himself and others, and using this skill in service to his superiors makes him a passive player. Process of elimination (he's certainly not Page, Seer, Bard, or Muse) leaves us with Rogue, which I quite like. The Rogue redistributes their aspect, and Taggart's whole shtick is using his knowledge of psychology to convince people to shift their perspectives.

Zhao Yun Ru: Bard of Heart

Hear me out on this one. She may SEEM like a Void player because of all the secrecy she's embroiled in, but her personality doesn't fit with a Void player at all. But the self-obsessed Heart player? That's Zhao. She's overly concerned with her role, her place in the Illuminati hierarchy. She desperately wants to be one of them. Like Taggart, she's a passive player (though unlike him, she tries to be active, which I personally think is what dooms her). Her relationship with her own aspect invites and enables great destruction to occur, making her a Bard.

Hugh Darrow: Prince of Rage or Witch of Space

I'm torn here. Firstly...they need a Space player or their session is doomed. :P So I kind of want him to be Space. The personality fits—he's a very big picture kind of guy. He uses Space literally—he is responsible for the most ambitious infrastructure project in human history. Panchaea was HUGE, and would have had an effect over the entire globe. But damn, Prince of Rage is a good fit, too. The personality ALSO fits with Rage, the way he's willing to burn everything to the ground to purge what he considers to be an irreparably broken system. A Prince is devoid of their own aspect, too, which he definitely is, and the role of a Prince is to directly cause destruction through their aspect, which he did. Help, which is he??

Megan Reed: Mage of Light

Possibly the quintessential Light player. Research and knowledge above all other considerations. You could probably take her in either an active or passive direction, but I'm leaning on the side of active. She sure doesn't seem all that concerned with serving others. When her actions benefit someone else, it's incidental to her serving herself. That makes her a Mage I'm thinking.

[mornemire]

I love you, Hugh :)

friendly reminder that Hugh Darrow’s speech on Panchea was intended to end with ‘David, forgive me’

[limitsimposed]

nightmares

Waves of panic rushed over him, yanking him out into a sea of fear and chaos like a riptide. He tried to take a step back but his leg gave out, causing him to crash to the ground, breathless. The screams of the dying drowned out any thought he could possibly form but he crawled forward, reaching for his fallen cane. Yet as soon as he touched it, he let go, feeling warm blood on his hands.

Sarif’s body lay bloodied and beaten on the ground. The blood covering the cane was his. It was Darrow who had done this. He had done this to him. He didn’t remember it but he knew it had been him.

Letting out a cry, Darrow clutched his best friend’s still body to his chest, only having a moment to breathe before he felt Sarif being torn away and—

“Hugh? Hugh!”

A hand on his shoulder shook him awake and he startled some, looking up to see Sarif crouched next to the couch, thinly veiled worry on his face.

“You were screaming, Hugh. Shit, I thought—“ Sarif trailed off, shaking his head.

Darrow had become so accustomed to Sarif’s voice being distant and shut off that the concern that had crept into the other man’s tone threw him off. He started to respond but cut himself short, shaking his head apologetically as he tried to inconspicuously wipe the tears from his eyes.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to wake you.”
