#i mean I'm not for turning women evil at the drop of a hat

[naffeclipse]

How okay are you with cusses? Cuz I came across this post of old hollywood bloopers and since the Detective AU/Sleuth Jesters takes some inspiration from film noir (at least I thought it did?), my mind immediately wandered in that direction. They do cuss a bit tho but there’s something funny and sincere about old-timey people just being people and dropping the perceived propriety by swearing. here's more if that's alright

Also in the very hypothetical case of SJ being a film noir production, I’d think it cute to image Eclipse, who plays the nastiest of nasties, actually being super kind and sweet irl (and constantly bumping his head cuz he’s just too tall lol). Sun and Moon may be more laid back or more like their SB selves perhaps? just goofy and having fun. But ignore that if actor au type stuff isn’t your cuppa tea ^^’ I do prefer SJ as is in its fictive context. Just thought it a funny set of clips to share :)

I'm okay with reading/hearing curses, I just don't like to write too much of them! And yes, Sleuth Jesters is very inspired by film noir! I love gag reels and bloopers, they're so funny!

AHHH AN ACTOR AU WOULD BE SO MUCH FUN! I wouldn't write a full fledge story but it's really exciting to think about ♥ (psst @luminitewrites I think you mentioned an actor sleuth jesters AU a while ago? but if not then feel free to ignore!)

Oh gosh, Eclipse just being a real sweetheart (hehe)! He gives me vibes of this one interview with an actor who was asked about people who idolized the very evil and morally messed up character he played and he just bluntly says: that's wrong and you should probably get therapy if you do. (I can't remember who exactly was the actor/quote but if I do, I'll put it here lol)

Sun and Moon would be their Security Breach selves. They're fun behind the scenes just as much as they are while in character!

I also think about the boys knowing their lines perfectly, because, animatronics, so Y/N would be the one who curses and apologizes whenever they forget a line. However! Y/N is the best at improv and delivering great, unexpected lines that enrich the scene/dialogue! Of course, that's not to say the boys wouldn't have their share of flukes with missing cues or messing up an action scene, or keeping up with Y/N when they do some improv.

I'm going to put a few of my favorites from the bloopers here as the boys and Y/N if you don't mind hehe (sidenote: I love how often they shout nuts lol):

Sun: Let me do it again, right now! Keep rolling!

~

Moon: Well, I can't work around here! *camera follows Moon as he walks away* Oh, you're following me. Oh. I didn't know that.

~

*Y/N and Sun kissing for a scene*

Y/N: *leaning back in Sun's arms* What was it? What was the... *forgets line* Sonuva—

Sun: *chuckles* Language.

~

Y/N: Oh, I'm fine. You've been getting any lately? *misses a keyword*

Moon: *grinning* Overtime, you mean?

Y/N: *laughs bashfully and blushes as they turn away*

~

Sun: Geez, these city women are... *realizes he's delivering it wrong* Nuts.

Y/N: *smiling* Well, I don't think so.

~

Director: *during a scene where the actors are standing in water and are wet* Don't pull your hair back!

Y/N: Well, I gotta see, if you don't mind!

Moon: *chuckles*

~

Y/N: *hat falls off during a scene*

Eclipse: *hurries to pick it up and put it back on them*

~

Eclipse: *trying to light his cigar but fails repeatedly in frustration* My match won't strike.

~

Y/N: *collapses against Eclipse in a dramatic scene* Help me... *tries to lift their head but realizes their hair is stuck* Help me, please, help me. *laughs* I'm caught on his button!

Eclipse: *laughs as he frees them*

[pugs-cats-bb-8]

Tactica-Kingdom 3

Why does it look like P2?

Now it looks like Arena.

Ann looks straight out of Scooby-Doo. 🤣🤣

So we went from the French Revolution to the Meji (?) Restoration/ feudal Japan to school with a door to hell...

Okay 🤠With hair.

They actually call them 🤠 people. I thought they were evil this time around.

They're roasting Ryuji 🤣🤣

He's made of fire?

Back to hell.

Ryuji ain't going to last if he keeps that up.

How the hell are we supposed to hit the enemy from down here? I'm pretty sure nobody brought their go go gadget boots.

Yusuke's willing to be friends with Ann even if she turns into a monster. 🤣🤣 Never change, Yusuke.

Bandaids?

Sad past time.

Class President, I can see that.

I love how Ren manages to look so pissed off but so cute at the same time. 😍😍

Poor Yusuke 🤣🤣

How old is Toshiro?

Ryuji gets some good lines.

I like the hell landscape.

I love how they sometimes speak without moving their teeth. That's a talent.

Is that Yoshida?

I love Ren's little nod.

I love how they seem to open doors with their elbow.

Can Futaba stop with her doom and gloom when you get hit? You could take 10 damage, have plenty of health left and Futaba's screaming about how you're going to die. It reminds me of dancing where if the meter dropped too low, people started yelling. It's horribly stressing.

I love how Haru holds the front of her hat.

My man's a robot?

The battle music can get on your nerves.

Toshiro fought, with what Persona?

I kinda figured that was too easy, but hoped it would be that easy.

Dude had a mental shutdown without having a mental shutdown.

So, he's going to be charged with attempted murder, right?

Only cowards say "if you didn't expose me. I wouldn't have pushed her in front of a train". It has very " I only hit her because she makes me mad". Or "He likes it when I hurt him". vibes

🤬🤬How damn brain dead are people?

I feel sorry for Ryuji. Makoto could've grabbed his ear.

Futaba and Yusuke can make coffee?

Ren doesn't seem like he has a lot of facial expressions. Which sucks, I want to see him react to stuff. At least it's better than Sun/Moon, where you have this stupid 😐😐 while Lillie's mom is getting dragged into the Ultra World. (I mean she does deserve it) but still, at least be shocked or something.

I hate the 🤠 people here.

I love the engine/gun shot star.

That is one freaky shadow.

Is this going in a 4 direction?

Mummy wrappings

Ernesto has a very cool design. (It reminds me of Loki with the colour scheme) {Sometimes women have men's names and vice versa} Probably hell to draw.

I honestly thought Toshiro was going to be the bad guy.

My man floats.

That is fucked up on so many levels. I think I've seen a game like this.

How is this game still T?

5K health!

It looks like EMMA and Neo Featherman mixed together. (I'm not going to count it as the 4th Kingdom till they get to a new location).

Choo Choo Charles flashbacks 🚂🕷

Ryuji almost got run over 🤣🤣

How can Lavenza see to drive?

I honestly thought this happened at the beginning of the game. Morgana's talking nonsense.

🤣🤣 Blue children

🤣🤣 Toshiro's going to get his ass kicked

🤣🤣 Poor Yusuke

I hope there's seatbelts.

15 save slots

Melty people.

So... Maruki?

So Toshiro's mind is the engine?

Who's drawing the pictures?

Lavenza drives about as well as Haru.

I know I’m extremely late to the party, but I have a theory on one of the 8.3 Il’gynoth whispers:

“The golden one claims a vacant throne. The crown of light will bring only darkness.”

Putting my money on that being Calia.

Her appearance does not make her look friendly in my eyes (she’s giving me ‘Inquisitor’ vibes and that’s Not Good)

People have noted that there’s a disconnect between her and the Forsaken. Yes, they’re both undead, but one side has been reviled, hunted, forced to do some pretty dark shit to survive (no not the plague, I mean pilfering corpses of their parts to keep themselves in good repair). The other has had a pretty shit start to life, but her unlife has been...pretty peachy, all things considered. Whilst some will definitely warm to her rule, there will be others that can criticize her. ‘you don’t know what we’ve been through’.

Also potential Alliance unrest - whilst a lot of us joke about the Alliance propping up the Horde story, their citizens could see their leaders, especially Anduin, helping with Horde politics and think ‘wait, is he looking after us or them?’ With Calia going to help the Forsaken, of which there’s a still a big distrust of in the Alliance races? That’s probably not going to go down too well.

Though he didn't know it yet Chris Mclean was in for a shocking revelation. One of the campers is not exactly just some rando kid. This camper is his kid and she is out to expose it.

Name : Iris  Escalona

Age 16

Eye color green

Caramel skin

Black hair that she keeps in a high ponytail. A Cherokee rose on the left side of the hair tie.

Iris is 5ft 8",135lb

Out fit-White tanktop with the alchemists symbol blue acid washed jean shorts black converses

Iris has a dark sense of humor. She loves horror,pranks,is resourceful. Iris is not above smashing some skulls together. She is not quick to anger but Heather pushes a lot of her buttons.

All her life she just wanted Chris to know she was alive. Her mother never gave the reason why she left. She is the oldest of seven children.

________chapter 3_________

• Chris: Last time on Total Drama Island, twenty-three campers arrived and learned that they'll be spending the next eight weeks at the crusty old summer camp. The campers we're faced with their first challenge, jumping off a cliff into the shark-infested waters. While most campers took the plunge, a few were forced to wear the dreaded chicken hat. At the campfire ceremony, it all came down to two campers, Courtney has experience as a CIT in summer camp, but refused to jump, and Ezekiel managed to tick off every female at the camp with his sexist comments about women, in the end, the first camper voted off Total Drama Island was Ezekiel, proving that homeschooling and reality TV don't mix, who will be voted off this week in this dramatic campfire ceremony yet? Find out tonight on Total... Drama...Island.

Iris woke up early and snuck into the kitchen.

It looked a mess it was four in the morning so she needed something to do.

(Confessionals)

Iris looked into the camra

"Ok so ever since I was ten I wake up at four in the morning. Some nights I don't even sleep. Doctors can't figure out why but hey at least I can do something before the challenge starts."

*Static*

(End of Confessionals)

Iris was almost done cleaning when Chef walked in. "And what are you doing up?" Chef said crossing his arms. "Sorry Chef woke up at four and couldn't go back to sleep. I decided to clean the kitchen to help you out. If you need help cooking I can do that too." She said still scrubbing. "Awe thats real nice of you sweetpea. But I can take it from here go get washed up. The mess hall looks great. " Iris stood up saluting him. He did the same to her and she went to the showers.

(Confessionals)

Chef

That girl is a sweetheart. I haven't met a kid who would just clean without being asked. Her parents raised her right she will make a man happy one day.

*static *

(End of Confessionals)

Iris walked into the mess hall. Chef had a cup of coffe ready for her. "Here you go sweetie thanks again for cleaning the place up." He said making her bluch. "No problem if you need any help you can always ask."  She said sitting down. "Why did you clean this dump?! You never do anything nice." Courtney came over before Iris could take on sip of her ainti murder juice. Holding up one finger Iris took a drink. "Ok child now that I had a caffeine shot I can speak. I wake up a four am every day. Why I do not know I just do. Some nights I don't even sleep. As for doing something nice goes. Unlike you I was raised to help someone when I physically can. You were shelter from the world thats why your a spoild brat.  Do you want me to spill what it was you did to my brother, or are you going to sit back down like a good girl?" Iris was now glaring at the pampered princess. Courtney like any other teenage girl that doesn't get her way, stomped away with a "Ahh!"  I waved her finger at the child.

Chris walked in "alright campers time for your challenge. Both teams will complete one lap around the Island. The team that completes the race first wins. "  Trent asked about breakfast. "Oh you will eat after the race. Ready set go!" He laughed as everyone ran.

Iris pov

It was a nice warm up but ,I doubt that this is the actual challenge.  When we made it back to the mess hall a buffet was waiting for us. It was so beautiful I wanted to cry. Though something sinister is happening here. This is a set up so I'm not going to eat to much. I saw cranberries the kind you get on Thanksgiving and chowd down. It was refreshing everyone else asked why I wasn't eating anything but Cranberries. "Think about it why would they give us this food. It's a plot for the challenge. Trust me I want to chow down with all of you." I said making them shrug and go back to eating. Courtney was glaring at me. I think about it the guy that asked me the question was Duncan.

(Confessionals)

Iris started laughing.

"Oh she is a treat I will thoroughly enjoy this."

*Static*

(End of Confessionals)

"Hey Duncan can you step outside with me? This won't take long." I said standing up. He shrugged and followed me outside. Once we were out of ear shot I turned to him.

Meanwhile in the mess hall.

Courtney pov

"They have been gone for awhile. I'll go check on them." I said having campers telimg me to leave them be. Iris is a conveying snake you can't ever trust her.

"Hey guys what are yo-Ah!" I walked out to find them making out. I march up to them and pull him away getting in her face. She smirks at me. "Hello Courtney how can I help you?" She chuckles "You can help me by not macking on my teammate you snake." I growled

(Confessionals Duncan, Iris)

Duncan

"If she is a snake and thats her bite. Please bite me some more."

*static*

Iris

"*laughs* oh wow I was right she likes him. This is going to be a fun day for Duncan and me. He is on board with the plan. Obviously he is enjoying this too. *smirks* bey bey second place Courtney"

*Static*

Iris pov

Duncan stood between myself and Courtney crossing his arms. "I think you should run inside. You don't own me there four have no say in my actions." He said wrapping one arm around me. I place my hand on his chest the top of my head under his chin. I was side glancing at her. She growled stomping away. Once she was gone we bust out laughing.  He picked me up bridal style carrying me inside. "This is mine no one else can have her." He said sitting me down at my seat we started to feed each other. "Can you two get a room?" Heather complained. "Can you get a new attitude." I said making her gasp.

Once the buffet was cleared Chris came back in. "Everyone ready for the awake athon!" I knew it and they say I'm a snake. "Wait so you had us eat all this food so you can see who will fall asleep first?" Gwen asked "Yes Gwen Yes I did" I laughed "oh that so evil its good."  I said "Glad your finding this amusing lose lips" Courtney said  "Hey they are open for you too." I wink at her. "Your disgusting " she said following Chris to the pit fire. I sat in Duncan's lap during the challenge to get on princess sunshine's nerves. Its almost night fall I'm about to fall asleep. Duncan puts his hand on my cheek "got to stay awake gorgeous. How can I look into those beautiful eyes if they are closed?" I giggle at the sickeningly sweetness. "Let her fall asleep at least I won't be second place. " Courtney said  laughing "oh your second place in everything so shut up. " I said before glares at her.

Its now been twent-four hour mark. Come on stupid bass fall asleep. I thought to myself. It was now Myself, Trent,and Gwen for the Gophers and the Bass only had Courtney and Duncan.  Once Chris started to read the history of Canada Courtney, and Trent fell asleep.  Leaving Gwen, Duncan and me. "I have to hit the can" Duncan said as the camra crew followed him. Gwen fell asleep I was about to when Chris announced that the Gophers won. I smile before falling flat on my face.

• [The Killer Bass are standing outside of the cabins, stuff are outside due to Eva throwing them because she can't find her MP3 because Heather stole it.]

•

• Eva: [screaming angrily] Where is my MP3 player?! One of you must stolen it, I need my music! No one is going anywhere until I get my MP3 player back! [She angrily throws a book, which almost hits Harold]

•

• Courtney: Okay, whoever took it better give it up now before she destroys the whole camp.

•

• Heather: Hey, guys, wow, this place is a real mess.

•

• Courtney: Someone stole Eva's MP3 player.

•

• Heather: [holds Eva's MP3 player] Who don't mean this to you? [Eva is surprised that Heather found her MP3 player, which Heather actually stole it] I was wondering who it belonged to, I found it by the campfire pit. You must have dropped it.

•

• Eva: Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!

• Heather: Sure thing. [Leaves. Static buzzing, in the confessional] Turn a team against their own members, easiest trick in the book. (Static buzzing)

• Eva: [smiles sheepishly] So, sorry about the that little misunderstanding. [The Killer Bass glare at Eva] Guess no one stole it after all. Okay, maybe I overreacted a little. [Laughs sheepishly]

Iris and the Gophers watch the marshmallow ceremony of the Killer Bass. It was down to Alpha geek Harold and wack Job Eva. Both looked nervous until Chris gave it to Harold. Wow did not see that one coming. They threw away their strongest team mate. Welp looks like the Gophers have it even easier now.

Chris "you All can get some sleep tonight you all are safe for now. Find out what happens next time on Total Drama Island."

(Have I mention how much I don't like Courtney yet. Well I don't have a great day/evening)
