"In my defense, she was like super creepy and an asshole. A big one."

• The souls were free but you kept your new territory nice so they didn't leave.

• You made jobs and kept the housing in better shape, only made deals to help souls.

• Gave them a job, house, and protection. You give them a limit of a few years of the deal and if they don't mind it, they can renew it.

• She finds your dark humor funny.

Just a party, part 3

"Number 14 and 16"

"Guess it's you and me again." Ben took my hand and we went to the room we were assigned"

We left Ezra and Jason back there. Poor Jason, he was really fed up with Ezra. Hope he'll survive the night in that pip squeak body.

We opened the door of the room. I went on the bed. Ben right down next to me

It was awfully quiet. We wanted to have a party, we were overworked, stressed and probably needed a drink to loosen up a bit. We knew immediately that we both felt the same way. And we headed to the bar of the building.

The emplyees were serving us, asking about our needs and desires. Creepy but somehow nice. I bet the studio must have pay a massive ammount to get us to this event. But they all say that this one even is worth working for Hollywood. It fullfills you.

"You know, we didn't have much time to explore our bodies by ourselves before. With the Comic Con and so on, giving out all the autographs. I'm pretty sure that all the fans that will try to sell stuff with 'your' signature are gonna be pretty sad. I tried to perfect your signature Henry, but it still looks like someone else did it."

"Even better then. Those who really appreciate it get to keep it anyway and the ones trying to sell won't be as succesfull'

"Henry? You know I'm now the one wearing SUPERMAN's body? You don't have to act like him all the time."

"I don't honestly. I am just being polite most of the time. A decent human being."

"How about you show me how my BATMAN body looks like? You know what? Let's call each other by the name of our bodies, ok? To make the experience worth it. I wanna know what it feels like to be you"

"Ok then HENRY, now I wanna show you now what it truly feels like to FEEL that SUPERMAN body"

Henry in Ben's body lowered down to give Ben a head. He unzipped his pants and took out the beautiful hard cock he was already familiar with:"I think it looks even better from this angle" And the he took it in his mouth

It might have been the fact that I knew my cock so well. The way it responded to my tongue circling around the top, sucking his balls made me sure I was making Ben feel good. But I can't let him cum yet.

Suddenly my phone rang. I just looked up at him. He only winked at me and picked up.

"Hey, this is... HENRY Cavill. Sure, I got time. New TV series? The Witcher? I am not sure about that"

I looked at him aggresively. Playing Witcher is my dream, he can't deny them.

"Jeez. Ok, I really want it. When do we start? Ok, thanks. No, I can't talk that long, there is something I need to take care of. Bye."

My blow job was coming to an end. Then I stopped. Can't let him finish that easily.

"Please, go on!"

"Can't do that HENRY! You got an ass to breed. And I wanna have fun too"

I took his hand and dragged him to the entrance hall.

"The room is too far, let's go to one of the closests, I wanna fuck you there."

We took the first door on the right. Passionately making out on the way. Ben pushed me against one of the lockers. Wait, that wasn't a closet. We must have entered the lockers of the employees. We kept on going.

Suddenly we noticed voices from a room around the corner. We stopped and I showed Ben a finger on my lips to shush him. We went closer to get to hear them

"All right. As I have said before, we are now on the full capacity of our guests. They are very busy right now. Each and every one of you has an envelope with a name of the actor or other famous person they get to swap with today. For those of you who haven't read it, the reason of the swap is the Writers and actors strike. You will get a brand new life of a popular person, their money in exchange for absolute loyalty and diacretion about the swap. I am deeply sorry to everyone who wanted to go back to their bodies sometimes in the future, but we have to get rid of them. The actors in your bodies can't let anyone know about this. Is anyone against this?" nobody responded which led us to believe that they agreed"

"Ok. We now have 48 minutes until the door of the rooms get locked completely, sealing our guests inside making it easier for us. We will be going over some details with each and everyone of you. Starting with Miguel who will be receiving Henry Cavil's body..."

I looked in shock at Ben in my body. He was also horrified about what we just heard.

"We have to warn everyone!" Ben said to me

Suddenly a manly voice above us said very calmly:"Haha. But we won't let you, gentlemen" the man above us was Chris Hemsworth, holding a taser. Something was telling me, that Chris wasn't the one controlling his body anymore, or the one of his friends who swapped with him

To be continued...

Story request from inbox by Anonymous: That Hugh and Ryan story was Great! Maybe you can do a swap involving Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill?

And also continuation for part 2.

Inbox request: Your stories are soo good, love the Chris E. and RDJ swap. Maybe a second part involving some actors from dc, like Ezra Miller and Jason Momoa swapping to try new roles & running into Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck in the rooms?

Part 2:

Part 4:

Is that alright?

Pairings: Henry Cavill x Singer Reader

Summary: You are a musical guest in The Graham Norton Show on an episode that also features your ex-boyfriend, Henry Cavill. You play your latest single that you've written when you were 18 and in love with Henry.

A/N: Implied previous relationship. I don't think there are any more warnings, except the delusional situation that I've concocted. LOL This is based on the song Is That Alright? by Lady Gaga from The Star Is Born movie.

Check out my fic masterlist.

As the stage lights dimmed, the audience of The Graham Norton Show erupted in applause, eagerly anticipating the next musical guest. The cameras panned to the artist nervously waiting in the wings. You took a deep breath and stepped into the spotlight, gently sitting down on the chair and placing your hands on the ivory keys.

With grace and confidence, you began playing your latest single which took you nearly 10 years to release. A song you've written when you were so deeply in love with the love of your life, Henry Cavill.

As you began to sing, your voice resonated with a depth of emotion that captivated everyone in the room.

When the last note faded into silence, the applause was thunderous. 

You took a gracious bow and went over to the red couch where the guests for the night were all on their feet, applauding as well and congratulating you on your heartfelt performance. 

Henry, being a guest as well that night, caught your eye as he extended a hand to shake yours. You gave him a warm smile as you shook his hand. 

"Y/N, that was absolutely stunning." Graham began when the greetings and applause were over. "This single is truly heartbreakingly beautiful. Tell us about it!" He asked enthusiastically.

You glanced at Graham, taking a moment to collect your thoughts. This was the question you were both expecting and dreading.

"Thank you, Graham." You began nervously. 

It wasn't that it was your first ever TV guesting, but it is the first time you were sharing the screen with your now excessively famous ex, Henry Cavill. Talking about the song you wrote about your relationship with him nearly ten years ago is a bit embarrassing on your end. 

"Yes, 'Is That Alright?' is a very personal song for me. I actually wrote it when I was 18 years old, so like almost ten years ago when I was deeply in love with someone who meant the world to me."

The audience watched intently, unaware of the connection between you and the other guest on the show, Henry Cavill. But Henry, caught off guard by your revelation, nearly choked on his Martini but tried to play it cool as he waited for you to continue. 

"Ten years?!" Graham exclaimed a little exaggeratedly. "Why did it take you that long to release this gem?" 

You laughed a little, hoping you looked cool and calm enough. 

"The long answer or the short answer?" You joked and everyone laughed. 

Even Henry was laughing, you were always funny, and he was amazed you were able to preserve your humor and wit despite the nerve-wracking fame you've garnered over the years. 

"How long will the long answer take?" Graham quipped.

"However long it takes the crew to give me five shots of tequila." The studio erupted with laughter, Graham was laughing behind the cards in his hands. 

"No, I'm sorry." You began, "Okay. So for real, this song holds immense significance to me, it’s a sort of love letter, you see… and these are the words I wanted to let the person I wrote it for know but I never had the chance to.” 

You saw Henry bit his lower lip and look down on the drink in his hand. 

"Why weren’t you able to give this ‘love letter’ to them?” One of the guests asked as you were drinking.

“He broke up with me.” You said shyly and laughter ensued once again. 

“How old were you again when you wrote this?” One of the older guests on the couch asked, an actor, that you can’t remember the name of but looks an awful lot like Nearly Headless Nick from Harry Potter. 

"Just 18. I was so young when I wrote it..." 

"You were binge drinking at 18, you were not THAT young," Graham said in jest and everyone laughed once again. 

You chuckled along with the audience, appreciating Graham's lightheartedness amidst the delicate subject. From your peripherals, you saw that Henry was looking in your direction, he was laughing, too. 

The conversation flowed, everyone on the couch asked their question or complimented your latest single, except for Henry. Graham, noticing how awfully quiet he was, asked, “And Henry, how do you find Y/N’s latest single?” 

You felt a lump form in your throat, you did your best to swallow your drink and as Graham asked Henry.

Henry chuckled, looking down at his drink a bit before looking at you and saying: “It’s beautiful.”

“Awfully unfeeling.” Graham quipped with a fake whisper and eye roll and laughter ensued once again. 

You laughed at Graham’s remark, too and thanked Henry. 

When the show ended, you made your way backstage to hurriedly gather your things when you heard someone clear their throat behind you. You turned to find Henry standing at the door of your dressing room. “Hi…” He said softly. You said a quiet hello and asked him to come in. 

“I’m so sorry, but…” He began as you zipped your bag. “Do you have any plans for tonight?” 

You straightened up and faced Henry, blinking fast trying to absorb what he just asked. 

“Uh…just go back to the hotel and that’s it. Order room service, maybe.” You answered honestly, feeling your face turn warm in slight embarrassment for your lack of fun plans for the night. 

He chuckled lightly, “May I interest you with a Pint?” 

You might have stared at him a little too long before answering, because you saw him lightly cock his head to the side. “Uhm… sure.” You managed to say, finally. 

“Perfect. Meet you outside in 10 minutes?” He said with a huge smile, and you only nodded in reply. You watched him walk out the dressing room, the smile never leaving his face. 

You were a bit shocked.

It’s been nearly a decade since you’ve last seen or spoken to Henry. But the last few minutes… they didn’t feel like much time passed. You sat down and breathed, you can do this… 

It’s just Henry. 

It’s just Henry.

TBC...

[riddlerosehearts]

can i be honest and just say that the snow white remake deciding to get rid of the romance is SO incredibly annoying to me because like... snow white's prince is what people like to claim the princesses are. he doesn't have a canon name, he doesn't show up anywhere except at the beginning and end of the story, literally all he does is sing to snow white and kiss her, he essentially has no personality and his one and only purpose is to be a love interest. rachel zegler claims that the original snow white has no function beyond "someday my prince will come", but really, she's an abuse victim who chooses to be kind, to have hope and to dream of love, and to take control of her own life by doing housework for the dwarves in exchange for being allowed to stay with them. the prince is the one who has no function beyond "one song", other than to rescue snow white and make her happy!!

but the thing is, he wasn't planned to be such a nothing character!! walt wanted to do more with him, if only they hadn't had so much trouble animating him at the time. and i was hoping so badly that the remake would flesh him out and give snow white a truly beautiful romance with her prince, like she deserves, because there is nothing wrong with an abused teenage girl, or any girl for that matter, wanting to find true love! but disney has decided that actually there is, i guess?! i was hoping maybe they could be childhood friends who met before snow white's parents died, because in the original movie it seems possible, to me at least, that they already knew each other and that's why he was so comfortable sneaking past the castle walls and joining in on her song, and why she was so immediately enchanted by him. that maybe the reason she was surprised at first and tried to run from him was because her abusive stepmother didn't want him around and might harm him. or if not that, maybe he wants to work out a trade deal between his kingdom and hers and he comes by and introduces himself like a normal person instead of sneaking in. but instead they're just getting rid of him entirely and at this point i'm surprised the cinderella remake gave kit and ella such a beautifully developed love story instead of just removing prince charming and making cinderella some kind of shallow girlboss.

and then also, they're not including the dwarves all because peter dinklage complained that it's stereotypical to have a story about dwarves living in a cave when, um, they literally fucking don't?!?! it's kind of a pretty significant plot point that the house snow white is staying in is their house and they just work as miners 😭 i'm so tired of celebrities who probably haven't watched a disney movie since they were in diapers thinking they need to say shit like this. AND this whole decision is not even working out for disney because now they're also getting slammed by actors with dwarfism who are understandably disappointed at losing the chance to audition for those roles. when they could've just idk, kept the dwarves and taken the opportunity to be inclusive and give work to a highly underrepresented demographic instead of removing them based on blatantly false information?? and if the dwarves working as miners is still considered stereotypical/harmful, then why not... give them a different job that isn't?

sorry it's just. ugh. disney would be nothing without snow white and every single time i see promotional stuff for the remake it's all just the cast and crew disrespecting snow white and trashing it and saying they're making it better by cutting out its most important elements. i have nothing to look forward to with this movie anymore (not that i was looking forward to it that much to begin with) because apparently the only thing it shares with the original is its title character, and i'm sure she'll also be nothing like her animated counterpart.

edit because i didn't really expect anyone to see this: idk if the whole "getting rid of the romance" thing is true because after writing this i remembered that i've also heard something about the prince getting replaced with a new "robin hood-esque" love interest named johnathan?? so if they're still keeping him then there will still be romance i guess, it just won't be the classic fairytale romance snow white is associated with, and my frustration toward them choosing not to develop the prince into an actual character still stands. ESPECIALLY SINCE i also read that snow is supposed to "ride into battle with him"?! snow white?! imagine if in cinderella (2015) they changed prince charming into a roguish robin hood type and had ella fight battles with him. it would've been so weird and so far removed from the animated cinderella in a very jarring way. i hate it. also, because of an annoying tag i got on this post i also feel the need to add that i do NOT have a problem with "political correctness" or rachel zegler being latina lmao. i do, however, have a problem with her insulting the original snow white while openly admitting that she has not watched the movie since she was a child.

The 24 Hour Chimp-Out

Liz has been chimping out a lot on Instagram. I know that news must be shocking to some of you.

Let's play a game! 50/50 shot of being right. Is Liz in love with Erin at the moment or does she hate her?

If you guessed hate, YOU ARE CORRECT!

The human mind can't fathom why Erin might have blocked people from @ing her. What possible reason could there be?

And we're back to bitching about nepotism. The battle cry of the scorned Heartie.

This is a good time to ask a question for a post I've been meaning to make. Can anyone send me (you can do it anonymously) examples of "nepotism" on WCTH? Stuff like Viv's real life kids playing his kids on the show. To make it perfectly clear, I AM IN NO WAY ACCUSING ANYONE OF NEPOTISM AND IMPLYING THAT THEY DON'T DESERVE THEIR JOB. I just want examples of things on the show that could be considered nepotism. I want to compile a list of examples and I want people to use that list anytime they see whiny, bitchy Hearties crying about Erin and Nathan benefitting from nepotism. Demand that they give their opinion on the other examples and push them when they ignore it. Anyway, back to the Liz-fit

"What do you think of me now, b_tch!?! Been 2 weeks"

For the record, that's a lie. She came back to Twitter for a few days last weekend under the name "123jennab" (unlike her last Twitter name which was "123JennaB")

The mental gymnastics here are gold medal worthy.

It's YOUR fault that you can instantly recognize when Liz has made a new account, and not her fault because she complains about the same dumb things each time in the exact same way.

If you JERKS would just stop blocking/muting Liz whenever she harasses you and just became her friends, everything would be great and she wouldn't be forced to make so many new accounts where she keeps following you JERKS.

I've mentioned this before, but the people who OBSESS over how actors kiss are messed up. It's reached a point where I can't think of any other word to describe it but perverted. You are shallow and perverted if that's the only thing you care about.

blah blah blah Erin so disgustingly private blah blah blah it's all her fault

I can't say for certain, but I think 2883 is a bigger number than 179.

Chris still hasn't posted a photo of him with his girlfriend or child on Instagram (good for him, BTW). Most of his posts just look like selfies. But please tell me how Erin is the more private one and everything is her fault.

I truly hope that the big, top secret "personal reason" for the break up wasn't something devastating like the Michael O'Hare/Babylon 5 situation I always reference, but if it does eventually come out and it was because of Chris, I'm going to laugh so hard.

Liz is back on the finger ring dents conspiracy!

EVERY. SINGLE. ACTRESS. I've * *EVER* * loved, I knew * everything * about!!

Yeah, it's a real mystery why Erin tries to block you. Very healthy behavior. Your family did an amazing job raising you into a functioning, contributing member of society.

I don't even know how to pronounce her middle name!

What a selfish bitch Erin is to not pin a video of herself saying her middle name for Liz. I bet she won't even share her social security number or thumbprint with her fans.

WHAT DO YOU WANT ERIN TO SHARE!?

I really don't get this. She bitches about Erin being so private, but bitches whenever Erin shares photos of her personal life. What is she supposed to share that won't set Liz off?

To everyone reading this, please always remind Liz, whenever she calls Ben "ugly", that she doesn't even have a boyfriend and will die single and alone.

And Liz, if you're reading this, please know that the day I find a picture of you, the gloves are off and I will leave you in tears and regretting the day you touched an electronic device.

What an excellent judge of character. And what "bad" things does Erin believe? Do you really want to go down this path, Liz? Because that's how your accounts get banned.

~Chaos of the Navigator~

A/N: Did you guys know that I have an ungodly obsession with Law, but I have an excuse though. I have a thing for Jotaro, AND LAW AND JOTARO HAVE THE SAME ENGLISH DUB VOICE ACTOR. Please don't blame me.

Also, I didn't realize that bepo was Law navigator and now I want to cry.

btw guys I take request so feel free to send me some.

Fun Fact: So, I was doing my Duolingo lesson, and I realized that Sanji name.....means three o'clock. I AM NOT KIDDING LOOK IT UP

______________________________________________________________

Scenario I

This type of situation was rare to happen. The closest they got to this type of situation is having there continuous one-night stands but for some reason. Something about the straw hats awoke something within Law, perhaps he felt like he needed to show his affection more. Maybe he just felt a twinge of jealousy in his chest when the chef of the straw hats tried to make woo the navigator of the heart pirates. Of course, he knew that the navigator would never fall for this. Despite the kind nature of his Navigator, he knew that she was cunning and smart. Yet, it still bothered him, because she never told him out right no!

So that is how the two arrived in the situation, a very annoyed captain along with a very confused navigator. The women smiled weakly, "Captain? May I ask...why you are doing this?" Law didn't answer her, the man remained silent as he laid on her lap. People might be confused, wondering why this 26-year-old man is putting his creditability on the line. The fact that most people don't know is that Law is in fact quite light, so it wasn't bothersome. It was strange on why he was doing this.

So, this sudden attempt of affection was strange. "I always assumed that we were just a fling, signs of affections were not something we would do..." he opened his eyes, looking up at the familiar face. "I'll try to show it more often, Navigator-ya" he said, closing his eyes once more to get some rest. The women smiled at him, the same smile that she wore on her face for years.

"Law..." The man was surprised to hear her say his name. Despite their relationship, they still had some type of professional relationship. The reason why she still called him captain, yet when she called him, Law. He knew that she wasn't talking to her captain, she was talking to Trafalgar Law. Two adults talking to each other, not a captain and his subordinate.

The women moved his hair out of his face. Seeing the familiar grey eyes, she loved seeing. The same at peace look she always displayed on her face. "You don't have to, if you don't want to" she caressed his cheek, a loving embrace he hasn't truly felt in so many years. "I know that you have trouble with it, Law."

Law felt bad for the navigator, he felt like everything about their relationship was wrong. What if they had a really big fight, it could tear the crew apart. He knew better than that, the navigator was grown enough to solve the issue so the crew doesn't suffer. Law lips curled into a frown, he knew deep down,

That he didn't deserve her.

______________________________________________________________

Scenario II

It was dark, the sky glimmered above her. All of her precious constellations glimmering right about her. It almost seemed like they were dancing above her, the image of a grand ballroom came to mind. Everyone she thought off dressed in beautiful dresses and suits, having a fun time. Causing chaos among each other, smiling. It was beautiful, something that she loved as well as envied.

The navigator drank out of a jug of sake. A faint blush came over her face, everyone passed out from the celebration of their triumph in Dressrosa. Including her captain, the navigator just enjoyed the stars. For now, just being able to sit here and enjoy the stars is enough for her.

Footsteps were heard from behind her. The navigator looked behind her, the infamous Nico Robin was behind her. "Hello Ms. Navigator" Robin smiled at her; the navigator turned her body towards Robin. "Hello Robin" the two met each other's eyes. "Enjoying the peace and quiet while it lasts, am I right?" Robin nodded, "Are you enjoying the view Ms. Navigator?" she nodded, "The stars are quite lovely, they watch as the world changes right below them." the two enjoy the silence, "I'm curious about something, Ms. Navigator" turning her body towards Robin, showing her interest in her question. "What is your relationship with Traffy?" the navigator spit out her drink.

"uhhhh"

______________________________________________________________

Scenario III

The navigator of the heart pirates sat on the bed waiting for the 'Surgeon of death' to exam her back. The women sat there waiting for him to say something. The two sat there for what seemed like hours. "Captain...is something wrong?" she asked in anxious tone. Law sat there for another minute or so, "I can never get used to your tattoo on your back" he said, bluntly.

The women felt a vein pop up in her forehead. ".... You're the one who helped me ink it on my back!" she stated. Law stayed quiet as he looked at her back, "I just wanted to have a cool tattoo" she smirked "If I had the choice...I would rather have it on my che-" the doctor hit her on the head with his sword. "Don't even go there!" she rubbed her head "Ouchie!" she pouted as she slipped the shirt back on. "You didn't need to hit me with your sword!" Law glared at the women, grabbing her by the shirt. "I know, where you going to go with that!" the navigator of the heart pirates turned away trying, sweat beading down her face. "Captain, I think you have a dirty mind. I would never imagine have such a relationship with my captain." the man gripped her shirt even harder, a pissed off look on his face "If the crew ever found out about our relationship-"

The navigator cut him off "Yeah, yeah, it would turn the crew upside down" she sighed "Don't worry, I can keep a secret, Captain" he gripped tigher on to her shirt. An even more pissed off expression on his face "I'm not worried about you not being able to keep a secret. I'm worried about you not being discreet! You're just like straw hat sometimes!" the navigator acted offended "Captain, how dare you think-"

Their conversation was cut short, "Hello!" a voice could be heard from behind the door. "Is everything alright behind there?" The navigator laughed, "Yes, sorry! We are finishing up in here!" Law sighed as he turned away from her.

"Oh, come on, Captain! We would have to come out eventually."

I'm talking about Tintin again. This time I'm writing an essay. You have been warned.

Yesterday it was my birthday and I rewatched The Black Island. To be clear: I have not read the book. For some reason that is one of the only two Tintin books my dad doesn't have, so I haven't read it. All mentions of The Black Island henceforth are referring to the episode from the animated series.

The Black Island is an interesting episode, and I have interesting feelings about it, which I only truly acknowledged yesterday. Maybe being a year older has brought me unexpected wisdom or maybe I just didn't notice my feelings until more than ten years after the first time I watched the episode. I don't know. Anyway, this is essentially just going to be my attempt at articulating these feelings. You could call this essay an exercise in pointlessness but I like writing so I'm doing it anyway.

The Black Island is actually the first episode I ever watched, and it was my introduction to Tintin as a concept. I'm going to give you a little bit of backstory here. I was about six years old, and I was at a friend's house. We were playing in her mum's room. There was a TV in there with a DVD player, and my friend suggested we watch Tintin. I had no idea what that was, but it sounded intriguing so I agreed to watch it. My friend put the DVD in the player, chose an episode and pressed play. Immediately I was faced with this image.

There he is. The man himself. The weird thing is, I recognised him. This character was familiar to me before I even knew who he was. And that is because of another friend, whom I'd known for my entire life. He and his wife were friends with my parents, and my younger sibling and I were friends with their two daughters. We'd been to the family's house countless times, and every time we went there I would look around at the pictures on their walls, the figures on their shelves and the magnets on their fridge, because I kept seeing these fascinating people. Two identical men with bowler hats and moustaches. A large blonde woman in a pink dress. And a chap with a round face, black dots for eyes and ginger hair that defied gravity by sticking straight up. I'd seen this peculiar character in this family's house for years but it wasn't until I was six and watching TV with my friend in her mum's bedroom that I finally learned his name: Tintin.

The episode we watched was, of course, The Black Island. It was my first proper introduction to the series that absolutely beguiled me from the age of six to around ten, and then was, for some reason, almost forgotten about until I rediscovered it a month ago. And this episode seems to have had a rather profound effect on me that I don't think any of the other episodes have. It isn't my favourite, it doesn't have the best quality, the animation is sometimes funny-looking and the dialogue is awkward and the accents are atrocious, but there is something special about it.

The main thing I get from watching this episode is an intense feeling of nostalgia. The Tintin series was a huge part of my childhood. My family and I watched the cartoon religiously until I probably could have recited the entirety of The Seven Crystal Balls word for word. In my young undiagnosed autistic mind, I thought the way the characters spoke would be the perfect thing to emulate when I was masking. New lens: I am now an actor, and the voice acting in the series is, for the most part, aggressively mediocre. But I tried so hard to copy it when I was a child that it's now ingrained in my head and when I need to mask, I automatically fall back on this weird overacted cartoon-character persona without even thinking about it. I associate Tintin with Sufjan Stevens, because I heard so much of his music while my interest in the cartoon was at its peak. To me, the two are intrinsically linked, and I sometimes forget that this isn't a universal experience, and that there probably aren't that many other people who instinctively think of Tintin in America when they listen to the song Chicago.

I also get nostalgia for the circumstances in which I first saw the episode. The friend who introduced me to the series was also a huge part of my childhood, as was the house in which we watched the episode. That particular friendship had a rough ending, and I feel both happy and sad when I think back on it. The Tintin series actually affected the way we interacted with each other, particularly in the games we played at school. We both liked playing pretend games where we would invent elaborate adventures and act them out in the playground together. Many of these adventures were inspired by the ones we saw on TV or read about, including Tintin.

The Black Island is a reminder of things that fundamentally changed me and made me the person I am now. But it also affects me in smaller ways.

The story of The Black Island is, like every other story in the series, unique. It has Tintin investigating a plane crash in the England, and the mystery eventually takes him up to a sullen Scottish seaside town and an ominous island. I think part of what makes this story feel so strangely close to me is its location. It's close in a physical sense because I'm from England and I've lived here my whole life. The landscapes look a lot like the countryside I used to live in and still see every day when I take the bus to school.

I've never been to Scotland but the Scotland scenes are still familiar. I can link these images to specific places I've been to.

Boscastle in Cornwall.

Corfe Castle in Dorset.

That nightmarish staircase in King Alfred's tower, Somerset.

There are also smaller, more specific details, like that dog that chases Snowy, which I can easily relate to several childhood experiences. I don't know why I got chased by dogs so often but it's hardly surprising that I was scared shitless of them until the age of sixteen.

Or the soundtrack in some of the Scotland scenes, which reminds me of the whimsical folktronica-style music my dad makes with his friend.

These are very specific experiences that I don't think are likely to be exactly the same as anyone else's. The things I associate with this story and the feelings it gives me are completely different to what someone else might get from it. And I think that's really nice. It's like I've got something that's just for me. And of course you could say this about anything, because everyone's lives are different, but The Black Island is, for some reason, the thing that I get this feeling from more than anything else.

The episode has a sense of quiet mystery to it. It starts with Tintin enjoying a walk with Snowy in the middle of nowhere, then bluntly stating that a plane is in trouble. I wouldn't say it's any less exciting than the rest of the stories, but it feels more matter-of-fact. The mystery is there but the answers are revealed in simple statements. I don't know if it's just because it's set in the UK and the weather over here is always dull, but many of the scenes take place under a cloudy sky, and the scenes in Scotland especially seem darker, which I actually like. Of course the episode has its share of chase scenes and slapstick comedy, but the overall tone of the story feels gentler somehow than a lot of the others. It feels more like something that could actually happen, at least to me. And that's how I felt about it when I was six. I watched it for the first time and thought, "I wish I could have an adventure like that." When I went on to watch the rest of the series I had similar thoughts about the other episodes, but The Black Island remained the only one that I could relate to. Maybe that's because it's set closer to home. Maybe it's because I recognise the locations even though I've never been to any of them. Maybe it's because it reminds me of the child I used to be, talking like a cartoon character and pretending my best friend or my sibling and I were on some wild adventure. Maybe it's because it was the beginning of an unforgettable chapter in my life, without which I would have ended up a different person. It's probably all of these things put together. These things are what makes The Adventures of Tintin: The Black Island feel like home to me.

'Tis the season. So here's my warning.

The real danger of the Ouija board / Spirit Boards, automatic writing, or pendulums isn't the chance of contacting a demon but the ideomotor effect of tapping into your own subconscious and mistaking it as a spirit. That actually happens a LOT more than real spirit communication. (Note: I am not saying real spirit communication is impossible, mind you.)

This is why the board tells you what you want to hear or expect to hear.

"But the board told me really horrible things!"

Welcome to the dark side of your imagination.

"But I got a demon! I was scared of conjuring a demon! I didn't want a demon!"

You expected it on some level and maybe some bored part of your subconscious wanted the drama of needing your home saged by Auntie Bertha.

For more research I suggest looking up the Ideomotor Effect and cross reference "Facilitated communication, abuse case." (also called FC) In this instance someone used a Ouija board as a "tool" to communicate with a non-verbal disabled man and was convinced he was telling her things.

I know one person who used a pendulum and twice became convinced that her favorite Broadway actor was going to show up in his limo and drive her and her son away to his mansion where they'd live happily ever after as he was truly her soul mate and the spirit told her that he would come for her. (She had never met the man in question, she had just seen him in one play and several movies...)

At first I dismissed it as her joking around. but then she did it with me in a parked car and I could tell she was moving the pendulum but she didn't realize she was.

And when it started to say "(actor's name here) will..." I tried filling in the blank "Will walk again?" The actor had survived a stroke and seemed like a possible fill-in if she wasn't trying to make it say he was going to come for her and her son again.

She laughed and said I was being mean. (Why is suggesting a paralyzed man might walk again mean?)

And so it continued and started to say what I dreaded. To me this was the big clue that some part of her knew what she was having it say and yes, she was trying to get it to say that the actor she was obsessed with was going to come for her and her son.

This sort of thing is the real danger of Ouija boards / Spirit boards, automatic writing, and pendulums. If you have someone who accidentally induces the ideomotor effect, and especially if they are predisposed to mental illness.

The worst demons are already inside us.

My Running Thoughts on DFF (Episodes 1-4)

Just started and caught up with DFF, thoughts from my watch for episodes 1-4 are below

Episode 1

Okay but people not hearing from someone is kind of the definition of disappeared

"Don't over think it he probably just moved" lol very comforting

Okay why are you smoking with asthma--I assume this will be related to how he dies, you better keep your inhaler on you at all times when the horrors start

Hmmm some relationship red flags from this guy

Lol our killer getting a bit handsy lol, but what are the actual logistics of that?

Throws cigarette over the railing, starts a fire, end of show--it's all a PSA: only YOU can prevent forest fires

Lol did he just bite his dick to make a point 😂 That's right stand your ground, bite his dick!

Okay so is this a real person or supernatural? Cause the hand and now only one person is hearing weird things. I wonder if there will be a trend of the newbies not hearing or seeing things for a while

Owww. Well the murder got right to the point--the stick kind

I don't know anatomy that well but why is there blood in his mouth? I mean I'll let it slide since it's a trope but I'm still wondering

I think we should split up 😅

Poor guy hasn't even started lessons yet and now he has to deal with tree impalement. Oh good, yeah he's right don't pull it out

Some good delegation from Phee (? still learning names)

Okay that's so not where you're going to find jumper cables ...Okay I was wrong but it certainly wouldn't be where I'd look

Maybe one of you just take the motorcycle? Seems like less of a waste of time, cause it'll take at least 10 minutes to jump that truck...

Oh good, but they should've done that before wasting time finding cables

Oh walkie talkies or radio smart

Who keeps a saw in their kitchen?

Team bike is not doing well lol

Wait so the murderer did try something, enough to cut his arms, crazy that they figured that out just like that though

Okay so it is supernatural maybe cause they aren't seeing it at the same time. I guess it could be hallucinations but it's so consistent

Oh brave to try and bring the bike back still

Wait are they holding off on what they saw in the video till next week or did I just miss it, I'm very good at missing more subtle jump scares but then jumping at stuff that wasn't supposed to be scary

Oh wow they actually used a busted bike for shooting, love that, truly delightful

Love that they give us these behind the scenes it's a nice reprieve from the spooky spooky. It reminds me of something I read on tumblr about how blooper reels serve a similar role to curtain calls for tragedies, they let us know that the actors are okay after all and it's all a show. I will now take all horror with bloopers please! sincerely, a resident scaredy cat

Alright I enjoyed that even if I won't sleep tonight, that mask is so well done and I'm starting to get a feel for the characters

Episode 2

Wait does iqiyi only have this tagged as romance 😳

Ah yes separate from the group that's smart

This is why you don't go off on your own in a horror show, and your even one of the ones convinced it's supernatural man

The masked man: Can you give me directions please, I seem to be lost

Oh wait I'm bad at faces it's the other guy, but also still stupidly alone

I know you're alone but maybe try and fight back

So will the axe be gone and no one believes him or will someone find it later in horror?

Lol he's seeking revenge cause he's upset you tried to film a sequel, don't mess with a writer 🤣

"Thai ghosts can do anything"...Oh interesting that they're making that explicit distinction. If my understanding is right, thai phee can be physical and there's less of a distinction between corporeal vs incorporeal, ghost vs monster. So they're setting the possible stakes and genre. This is a western style slasher but if it is supernatural we'll likely be operating on thai rules for that not western ghost stories. Heck it might mean that this is both physical and supernatural.

Guys, I don't think getting rid of evidence is going to make a ghost move on from its attachments

Ooof that's more than a little rash ouch. Oh not real. So if they're hallucinating it's not just the old group

Interesting to phrase it as "beat him"--so was it self defense in the past or maybe they see it as justified?

Ouch is right my poor ears

Okay physical knife but hallucinated choking. I like that they're playing with whether this is a person or supernatural. It totally fits with the emphasis on this potentially being a thai ghost. Cause it's hard not to waver back and forth.

Is it still not noon yet? Like I assume that'll fall through anyway but still, will the plot all happen in like two days? Interesting if so

All he said was he heard a sound, why are you asking if he saw someone? Suspicious me thinks

Ah really un-suspicious doc

Okay but 2 guys there were also around 3 years ago, you just gave your plan to find the drive first away...

I'm confused why Jin doesn't want it destroyed

Oooh punchout, fight fight fight

Well I knew the uncle wouldn't make it but goodness gracious 🤣

Okay I know it's supposed to be scary but I laughed when he was still handing them the bags

Wow seriously just abandon everyone including your boyfriend, you're on my shit list now

Also you didn't check that you were past the wire when you rode off

Okay Top, but you and Tee literally have encountered the thing before why are you acting like Tee is ridiculous for saying he saw and heard someone

Oh good job you do care a little even if you're going to lie your ass off about it--you're still on my shit list, Tee

Ghosts don't use wire, but like Thai ones could technically, but I guess that's a lot of extra work when you could do anything else as a ghost. I'm really liking how it's playing that line. Is this supernatural? Is it a slasher? What type of horror is this? We don't know yet, the characters certainly don't either.

Did the uncle's body just move?

The end song is very pretty, not what I'd choose for a horror show but it is a nice safe wind down from the scary

Episode 3

Really liking Ta's acting here, it's obviously a bigger role but he's standing out way more to me than in KinnPorsche

Okay I know we are upset about trust issues, but saying Top shouldn't go alone is smart actually you dumb asses

Sure you can set up the walkie talkies to communicate but then anyone can listen in if they know what channel you tune it to, so watch out

Oh yes let White go get the other walkie talkie alone

Ummm shouldn't you still have it tuned to the outside and try it as you drive out to see if you can reach anyone

I feel bad for the guys who are new. Unless they're in on it. Tan is pretty persistent

I do like that we as the audience are as curious as the newbies about what the heck happened in the past, it's a nice way to draw us in and give that past stakes beyond just a motivation reveal

Okay thank you, no touching or concealing bodies thank you. But good point about attracting animals

Okay yeah his body did move

I don't know why that attack felt so cartoonish, not in a bad way just visually it read that way to my brain

Oh Top is gone...dramatic!

Nice that they want to go after him but also how do they expect to catch up with a bike

Wait weren't they leaving, how'd he get back so fast?

Okay so only Top saw it, so is it supernatural or are more people in on it. Tan, I have my eye on you

Lol that's a big temple to just be hiding, spooky though

I want to know more about this Janta. Is it supposed to be a buddhist sect or older practices? Feels like it fits a trend I've noticed of older folk practices being framed as spooky in thai horror but my sample size is small and my context still pretty limited

Duuude great doctor over here, trying to shut up the dying guy. Have you killed before Fluke? Huh?

Interesting how their desire to hide the past keeps making them go against what would be best for survival, like telling white to go somewhere else

Yay white being smart and polite to the deceased! He best live

I think this is the first time I've seen them carrying weapons/defense of any kind. Hope they use it

Oh God how bad is this going to be? That is a lot of blood

Well he's not on the ceiling. After watching both Shutter and Nang Nak the possibility is totally there

I wonder what the writing says

Wait was that a statue or a mummy

Lol aware of the genre now, let's not split up, a little late, but good job guys

Wait one of them is named Phee, I'm guessing it's intonated differently but still an interesting choice

Ah here comes smoking with asthma, still betting that fucks him over when his inhaler is stolen or something

Wait who asked about the smell, cause White doesn't seem to be sniffing or anything

White being a little princess and the pea over here, good for him, I'm putting my bet on him for final girl. White for final girl 2024!

Oh boy what they absolutely don't need is a gun in this situation, I see it helping for defense but also being ripe for so much to go wrong

Lol the sudden flash back scared me more than the axe throwing scare earlier. My ability to miss jump scares but jump at random shit instead prevails

Okay good hide that sucker, no one needs to know you have a gun until the pivotal moment you use it to save yourself

Okay it was the dudes at the shrine who asked about the smell

Wow these guys are so unobservant pffff, let's all pay no attention while the axe guy just walks right up to us

Okay they all see it this time, so unless it's Top in there the rest are accounted for I think

Glad they're fighting back physically this time

I mean maybe try a few more swings before running, 4 on 1 you could maybe get the mask off

Maybe wait on opening the drive, White, cause I feel like doc is going to come looking for you soon

Oh doc is scary, hope White hid that in time

I don't feel like hiding in a confined axeable space is the smartest choice

Ah saved by another idiot

Locked in a casket by your own stupidity. I think they should kiss about it.

Oh did he already sew the wound? Not sure the logistics on that when it's a stab wound

Okay these two are stupid, like there was so much time to run while axe guy just slowly walks

Okay but axe guy on the motor bike is such a funny image...WEEEEEEE

Interesting, so does axe guy not want the disk shown or is he after doc now

So not abandoning White this time, how gallant

No but White is right you best sterilize things

Doc is losing it

And the gun comes out at the worst time

Okay so mask reveal, interesting

Will we actually get to know so early?! It's got to be a twist. Cause if it's Top under there then there's definitely more to it

Episode 4

Fluke's lost it

Is he going to force white to do the sewing?!

Boy you better sanitize that needle

Oof did not want to see the stitching, but at least doc did it himself

He's bleeding in his abdominal cavity AND you just used unsanitized equipment so he's probably going to get a nasty infection

Ah the romance of being locked in a box. I think the oxygen problem could be resolved by kissing actually

Again? Did he dislocated his arm in the past or something

Not going to try and snap it back in, probably smart I guess

What ghost or human could lift a person like that, well it's got to be one or the other guys

Wait I'm pretty sure those were the pants Top was wearing

Yeah okay kind of suspected but how does that work?

And does that mean he's headed to help or harm White

Oh now a ghost? And not in a mask so a real spirit this time, unless it's hallucinations? So I'm guessing multiple things are happening at once in terms of the attackers.

Again only one person seeing it

Omg did this fool just pull a "I'm not lost the woods are just cursed" 😂 going to pull that one out next time I don't want to admit I'm lost. Not all who wander are lost, some are just stuck in cursed woods where they shot a horror film and are now being hunted down for real.

They literally went a foot before spotting the house

I see they brought the supplies the uncle bled all over inside

Why is a random newspaper with tee's uncle sitting there, seems very planted. Did Fluke put it there?

Oh God is that foreshadowing is there something in his stomach

Did Top poison himself or was he forced?

He probably shouldn't become a doctor if he's complaining over two patients

Looks like some clay can but that's cursory search. Oh he learned it from detective conan how cute if this wasn't life or death

Bleeding eyes seems to be a thing

Why are they using a hair dryer on the clay and not like the oven

Hmmm maybe try the oven before waiting till the sun comes out!

Dun dun dun

Possession? Or has Top just lost it?

Oh no! Friend on friend violence! We're one man down now

Okay but why now? Por has been dying just fine until now. And the killer seems pretty well planned. So I don't think Top is the actual one behind anything. I mean I guess he could've faked the poisoning but again why kill him now? Cause wouldn't it be better to go after White who saw the tape?

I mean no one checked it was loaded so I guess it makes sense it wouldn't be shooting bullets

I'm not convinced it's just Top being a maniac, I still think there's a supernatural component or at least more going on

Ruh roh it is loaded after all what did I say about bad things happening if you throw a gun into the mix

White love you bud but you are being super unhelpful right now

It looked more like he was trying to shoot himself

Good job White atta boy!

Oh fluke looks so sad...

And then there were 7 (or 8 I guess if we have an extra person running around after all)

I do like that because this is a show and not a film we get their moment of grief and that's given space 😔

Now doc has no patients (too soon?)

Ahhh poor doc, that's a lot before you've even had your training, wouldn't blame him if he switched majors (allowing he stays alive and all)

Yes for goodness sake tie him up, though I'm guessing he'll be back to normal and it's not the end, that or he's gone already

How'd these idiots get locked in the shrine, you were outside before, go around

Wait who was on the walkie?

Dude I think getting out is way more important than your resume, though I guess if you think it's over

The comparison and contrast between Top losing it supernaturally (or hallucinating idk) and fluke losing it cause of the past and his anxiety over the future

Ah the joys of youth, friendship, and threatening each other with a gun in a cabin

Dang dude

Once again fear of the past is making them choose to screw themselves over, mostly Fluke here, but yeah

Dude you have alibis and CCTV footage, you'll be fine (i mean you won't cause it's definitely not over but yeah)

Top making a hilariously dramatic re-entrance

And then there were 6? 7 I guess if we still assume there's an extra person. If the shot actually landed. Maybe doc just got himself a new patient instead

Oh looking forward to seeing Non and a non-passed-out Por next week!

Question - with the way Jensen has been name dropping roles and bigger actors, do you think that will have any effect on him within the industry? I mean, he's dropped 50 shades before but that one didn't gain a lot of traction. But then there's the Captain America/Chris Evans one which did gain a lot of traction esp during TB promo and there were lots of articles about how "Jensen was almost Captain America!!" except he wasn't... Then Deadpool and there were a ton of articles about how "Jensen was almost Deadpool but couldn't because of scheduling issues so Ryan got the role!!" Which is also wrong, Ryan was always the one attached to the role. And now with The Last of Us and articles about "how much he wanted the role" or how he was "up for the role" etc. It looks like he's constantly, publicly, claiming roles that were never his. Personally I think this is not a good look, but would this have any sort of effect on him professionally?

Productions run background checks and so do casting offices so the more Jensen tries to lie about his role or tries to gain relevancy where he didn't have any the more he will come off as unprofessional, a production risk and not trustworthy. Not to mention everyone knows everyone so you claiming you had an audition for something can very easily be verified.

Casting directors' biggest pet peeve is actor complaining or self aggrandizing, if you mix both you land very easily in their No pile. Jensen is playing a game that could end his career all because he's too proud to actually hire someone to do effective PR for him after developing a strategy for his career.

Also, by stirring up comparisons to successful actors all he is doing is showing he is limited, instead of focusing on growth and doing things that compliment and elevate his talents he is choosing this cheap approach based on entitlement because he thinks that if he complains enough people will heed him. They won't, they'll consider him unprofessional especially since most of these roles are truly not meant for his type so him insisting on them shows he is clueless about his own industry and type and no one wants to hire an actor that out of touch.

Again, I am going to stress, if he wants to advance he needs to get his branding and his training in order because along with all of that coaching people will show him how to self promote in intelligent ways without building comparisons he cannot live up to. He needs to stop trying to be other actors and embrace his unique brand and what it could offer, only then will CDs see him differently. Until then, he's one of the many actors who complain and overdisplay arrogance, a mix CDs don't want cast. Because their reputation is on the line when they do cast you so the actor they pick is a direct reflection on them. They can't risk hiring some guy that will trashtalk other actors, productions, etc. People ignored his jessica alba comment but, make no mistake, with producers, cds, etc that comment did not go over well and neither will his comparisons and complaints, especially if the angle is pushing a false narrative. All his claims will be debunked with one email or phone call so he really needs calm down and focus on his goals and do what's necessary to achieve them instead of expecting people to cast him when his brand isn't even defined and he creates negative backlash around roles. It's really clear to me from what he is doing that jensen had never had a mentor or a coach and he is approaching things the less than ideal way and creating obstacles for himself. I hope he gets his mind clear and focused and gets in touch with the proper people.

𝓫𝓲𝓸𝓰𝓻𝓪𝓹𝓱𝔂

the first born son of mitchum and lorelai fitzgerald, although his parents were the heirs to the infamous lvhm group, parenting always came first for them and they were ever present and ever involved, although axel shows all the classic tell tale signs of a rich kid with mommy and/or daddy issues.

growing up in the lavish lifestyle that they did, axel always felt like it was cold - the houses were too big, the designer stuff was tacky, the excess was exhausting and he just felt as though there was more meaning to life then all this stuff.

seeing that their son clearly needed an outlet, they enrolled axel in music classes and almost immediately, he showed an insane amount of talent.

he caught on to guitar and piano rather quickly and after a few years, he was writing his own songs.

with his parent's encouragement, when he was sixteen, he tried out for the x-factor and while he wasn't good enough to make it as a solo artist, the judges put him in a group with four other guys and there, their journey to international stardom began.

the group of five went on to win the show and stole hearts all over the world. teenage heartthrobs, it wasn't long until they were embarking on world tours, selling out stadiums and living the rockstar dream.

however, the dream was a nightmare for axel. because while he was getting all of the attention and adoration in the world, he was singing stupid teeny-bopper sounding songs that didn't mean anything to him. all of his suggestions were turned down and he was simply forced to be 'the pretty one' in the group - the one that girls threw themselves at and while he was standoffish about it for a while, he got to a point where he had no choice but to completely embrace it.

he played the part well - almost every other month had a different super model or actress on his arm, and slowly but surely began to become who people looked at as the 'leader' of the band.

he wasn't that close with his bandmates and instead, formed a clique inside of hollywood that consisted of a group of young people with far too much money and far too much time that enjoyed partying and excess.

it wasn't rare for the paparazzi to find him coming out of the club as the sun was rising with blood shot eyes nor was it rare for him to find himself getting into a drunken fight...or two...or five.

his behavior began to get more sporadic as time went on - often going on instagram lives, smoking a joint and ranting about how everything was pointless and nothing but a meaningless joke, much to the dismay of the band and their management team that tried to present the boys with a squeaky clean image, but after five years of this rollercoaster, axel was beyond fed up.

his parents never interfered with his behavior. they chalked it up to him being young and simply 'trying to find his way' and thought it would be better for him to figure things out on his own, even though he was getting to a point where adult interference was truly what he needed more than anything.

in 2020, when axel was 22 years old, the band's team presented them with a concept for their next album and axel, being high off of his mind in the meeting, threw an absolute fit. it was the same stuff the bad had been singing for the past five years, the same teenage image even though they were all in their twenties now and axel had enough. after a long winded rant and flipping a few tables, axel stormed out and quit the band for good. the band only lasted a few months without him before breaking up.

2021 was the darkest year of his life. he did absolutely nothing but loose himself further in drugs, alcohol, meaningless sex and parties. and all of that started turning him into a shell of a person. he truly didn't care about anything or anyone and after being arrested four times for driving under the influence, the fourth time resulting in him crashing his car into a strip of stores on hollywood boulevard, he was court ordered to enter rehab in the beginning of 2022.

his year in rehab did nothing but further his belief in the fact that hollywood was an evil and soul sucking place and the only reason he ever did drugs or drank in the first place was a way to escape from that. he felt as though he was smarter and already knew better than everyone in rehab and simply put on the act - pretended like he was going through the steps and that it was all working just so he could get the hell out of there and release his truth - his first album which he wrote completely while in rehab.

he was released in the fall of 2023 and after laying low for a few months, he reached out to his team about his album, however they shot it down immediately and said he had to clean up his image first before anyone bought his record.

so, they got him cast on one tree hill - a show about teenagers, the very thing that had drove him insane in the first place - having to act like he was some stupid kid having the time of his life.

he hates everything about the show and his stupid character, nathan scott, and is not exactly keen on becoming friends with his castmates either, but is simply trying to behave as much as he could so he can release the music he act

💬 News 1: Highlights from Hanbok Interview

She is an emerging talent to watch. Park Gyuyoung (25) made a name for herself as the web designer 'Somi' at Seowon Architectural Firm in JTBC's Monday-Tuesday drama 'Just Between Lovers'. Perhaps because of the role, any premature speculation that she might be a 'snob' changes with just one bright smile. She is an actor with a positive and bright energy that 'disarms' viewers and a 'unique' charm.

Park Gyuyoung left her hometown Busan and started living in Seoul when she entered the Department of Clothing and Textiles at Yonsei University in 2013. A college magazine (University Tomorrow) cover photoshoot she did by chance during her university days led to her current agency, JYP Entertainment, where she spent time as a trainee and debuted in 2017.

Although 'Just Between Lovers' is her first long drama, she has shown growing performances by appearing in the 2017 KBS drama special 'Kang DeokSoon's Love History, JTBC's 'Solomon's Perjury', and the web drama 'Magic School'. This year, she is also gaining attention as an emerging talent on the screen with two movies, 'Monsters' and 'Wrestler', set to be released.

Q. Are you going to Busan to see your parents for the Lunar New Year this year? It must feel like a triumphant return.

“I am going to Busan. It’s not exactly a triumphant return, but my family is still amazed (that I’ve become an actress), so they will probably ask me a lot of questions. I’m already feeling shy about it.”

Q. You had a busy year in 2017 with dramas and movies. Wasn't it tough?

“I tried not to think of it as being tough or busy. I just thought I had to work even harder. Then, looking back, I realized I was in a lot of productions in 2017. Still, I feel like I’ve accomplished something.”

Q. Being an alumna of a foreign language high school (Busan Foreign Language High School) and a prestigious university (Yonsei University) often makes headlines with descriptors like "Mum’s Friend’s Daughter." How do you feel about such labels?

“It’s totally, extremely embarrassing. I wasn’t exceptionally good at studying; I was just lucky with exams. So, it’s really embarrassing when I receive such compliments. At school, I was just a normal student who enjoyed hanging out with friends.”

Q. How did you start acting, which is unrelated to your major?

“I had a photoshoot for 'University Tomorrow' magazine. The company (JYP Entertainment) contacted me after seeing it. At first, I was half curious, but as I started to learn acting more seriously, I became more earnest about it. Once I actually went to the field, it was fun, but I realized there was so much to study and contemplate. There were difficult times, too. Studying acting made me think a lot.”

Q. There must have been a lot of other things to worry about besides acting.

“Thinking about always having to manage myself? I was a bit on the chubby side, so I worked out hard. I’m still doing Pilates now.”

Q. How will 'Just Between Lovers' be remembered?

“It’s my first long-duration drama, almost like it was from the beginning to the end. The set was so warm, which was great. The character Somi might have seemed annoying at times, but I'm glad I could show her lively side, leaving me with good memories.”

Q. It seems like Junho from 2PM, a senior at your agency, would have been a big support during 'Just Between Lovers'.

"When I became a JYP trainee I got the chance to see 2PM (*she may be referring to a concert) and it was truly fascinating. I used to gaze at 2PM thinking, 'Wow, celebrities,' and it was so surreal to act alongside Junho, a member of 2PM. He was really kind on set, and I was thankful for that. He treated me comfortably as if we had known each other for years."

Q. What did you learn from 'Just Between Lovers'?

"I learned a lot about the technical aspects of acting, but what remains in my memory is thinking about what kind of senior I want to become. There were many seniors in this work, so I was very nervous, but they treated me very comfortably. I was very grateful for that, and it made me want to be such a senior as well."

Q. Do you have a role model?

"I'm diligently watching 'Misty'. The charisma of senior Kim Namjoo is tremendous. I'm learning a lot. Also, senior Go Hyunjung in 'Return' is cool. I like that she has her own colour and her presence is amazing. It's fascinating and attractive how she shows different charms in each work."

Q. Is there a genre you're interested in?

"I'm very interested in action. I'm curious about how to prepare for action scenes, like practising movements and studying complex staging. I think it would feel rewarding and joyful to actually do it."

Q. What is actress Park Gyuyoung's weapon?

"I've played a lot of characters with a bright personality so far. However, I'm also sensitive and delicate. I can do well in roles that require a calm acting tone. (Laughs)"

Q. What are your plans for 2018?

"Rather than having specific things I want to do, in 2017, I was just starting to make my presence known from a state of obscurity. This year, I hope to appear in even more works than before."

News 1 Hanbok Interview, 2018

[selcnas]

Truthfully, Selena didn't know why she's agreed to the date. Initially when her friend had brought up the idea, she had actually declined the notion all toget. After a string of meeting mediocre men who would treat her more like a trophy than an actual person, Selena decided for her own peace of mind to swear off dating. It never ended well for her, and she wasn't in any hurry to meet anyone anyway. Only her friend hadn't seemed too happy with that reaction from her. After a couple of hours, talking over a glass of wine, Selena was finally convinced that it wouldn't be an awful idea. Just because she had agreed to the date didn't mean that she had to marry the man. Dinner wasn't a life long obligation, so to save herself the ear of ache of her friends complaints, she had found herself agreeing before she realised what that had meant.

Admittedly, she'd spent far too long getting ready. For reasons unknown to her, she wanted to impress the person she would be meeting. She blamed her people pleasing mother for making her inherit that family trait. With a small smile, Selena happily thanked her driver before stepping out of the vehicle. Wearing heels wasn't anything new to her, but she wished the date had been somewhere a little more interesting than a restaurant. Maybe if they'd opted to play mini golf, they could have joked around, had a good time and she could have worn her beloved sneakers. If things went well, maybe next time.

The walk inside was a relatively uneventful one, while remaining humble, Selena didn't pretend she wasn't a recognisable figure. A few people looked in her direction as she gave the name of the reservation to the woman at the front. A small smile was exchanged, Selena suddenly feeling her hands a little sweaty with the knowledge that she'd be spending the evening with someone she didn't know. She was aware that the woman standing before her probably knew who Selena's date was before she did and from the gleam in her eye, she could only hope that whatever occured during this meet up wouldn't be splashed across the headlines of TMZ in a couple of hours time.

While being lead to the table, Selene tried to recall everything her friend had told her about the mystery man. He was an actor, he was a little older than she was, dark hair and apparently the bluest eyes. The way her friend had described them, as looking like the warmest ocean in the midst of summer had Selena doubting this man was even real. But as she neared the small table, and he came into view, she recognised the man as Sebastian Stan and noted thst their mutual friend hadn't been entirely wrong — his eyes did have a certain shine to them.

Once they were left alone, Selena smiled over at him, pulling her own chair back so she could sit down. "Hi." She shyly spoke, brushing her freshly curled hair behind her ear. "I'm Selena, it's nice to meet you... I hope I didn't leave you waiting too long." While she'd left her home at the right time, traffic had been temperamental and she hadn't checked her phone the entire drive, convinced that if she had, she would have had one of her friends remind her than this was a bad idea. Sebastian was truly a work of art, his chiseled bone structure and sapphire gaze almost entirely unfair. Suddenly her spirits picked up. If he had a personality to go along with those looks, maybe this wouldn't be such a bad date after all. "Should we get some drinks?"

Blind dates had never been something Sebastian had entertained in the past. To him, he couldn't see how exactly it could ever work, especially since only he truly knew which women were perfect for him. If he didn't connect with a woman right off the bat, then why would he even waste time in a date? This evening could potentially be all for nothing. Sure, his friend knew him well, but even as Sebastian pulled up outside the fancy restaurant, he still had no idea if this was legit or if he was being pranked.

With a polite thank you to the driver, Sebastian slid himself out of the car, immediately taking off as soon as his feet touched the sidewalk. While there were no paparazzi outside right now, that could change at any second. Being watched during dinner was bad enough, let alone when you were meeting someone for the first time in an intimate setting.

"Taylor," Sebastian flashed the young woman, at the front, a polite smile once she asked for the reservation name. His friend had sorted out the entire time without a single hint, that included the reservation that had been under her last name. The woman flashed him a knowing smirk before leading the actor towards a small table. Great, now she thought Sebastian was using a false name, like the really big stars in Hollywood.

As he sat down, Sebastian refused a drink, stating he would wait until the other person arrived. Sebastian couldn't say that he was that nervous about the encounter. What he was feeling though was anticipation. Sebastian had no idea who this woman was. The only hints he had been given was that she was a fellow actress, brunette and in her early thirties. The actor hadn't even tried to guess who it could be, in fear of setting the bar too high for himself. So, as the minutes ticked by, inching closer and closer to eight o'clock, Sebastian eagerly waited for his date. // @selcnas

??? as Eist Tuirseach in The Witcher, Season 2 feat. some Caleist for the loyal shipper ❤️ ​ ​ ➳ for @oathbreaker-oathkeeper​

+ Bonus:

[slttygeto]

jjk men + the film industry!

synopsis: i recently read something similar and I've had the idea of them being actors for a long time so :)!!

featuring: gojo satoru, geto suguru, toji fushiguro

warning: slight nsfw

author's note: peep the friends references :) and i apologize for the slight cringe at Toji's part I'm not creative with movie names lol

additional note: @cherriese thank you for the idea!!! it's amazing<3

reblogs are appreciated!!

gojo satoru

absolutely a goof behind the scenes

most of the bloopers from the show he stars in consist of him popping in a scene where he's not supposed to be there

or poking fun at you for a slight break in your character

especially when you're mid-acting and then you suddenly see his eyes curl up, a sign that he was going to laugh really loudly

"or, you could stick a fork in an apple!" "..."

based from the look on his face, you knew you were gonna have to shoot that scene again.

"what is one thing about working with the gojo satoru that makes it different from working with other actors, is he serious? is he playful?" staring at the man sitting next to you, you were quick to shoot him a teasing smile as he leaned back in his chair with a smug grin, waiting to be showered with compliments. something he was used to a bit too much.

"he's a man-child," your response was mostly expected from gojo, but that wouldn't mean that he would hold himself back from making an exaggerated reaction, as if he wasn't waiting for you to throw insults at him left and right like you always do on set.

the interviewer laughed in return, watching the interaction between you and the white haired male.

"but working with him doesn't really feel like it's work, if you know what I mean? he makes acting...natural, and not a job, on days where I feel like the script is too much, he comes to my side and tries to make it more fun for me," you said with a smile, hands resting on your knees as you continued the shower the man with compliments he never saw coming, a look of adoration in his eyes.

"he is...an inhalation of fresh air to say the least,"

don't be surprised when you find out that dating rumors spread after the interview, with the way you and gojo were fidgeting and being too flirty, it wasn't a surprise that people could feel the love from the screen.

geto suguru

he and satoru starred in the same show as best friends which made total sense to be honest

he plays the role of the really responsible-yet-also-goofy-when-he wants-to best friend, it fit him perfectly

joey and chandler much?

geto is an actor who always keeps his hands to himself unlike gojo

he definitely does hugs but most of the time, he doesn't engage in much physical interaction with others

that is until you two met on set and it was a complete change in his behavior

he went from taking a seat alone and chatting from afar to walking up to you with a drink you had mentioned that you liked on the first day of filming, engaging in the most random conversations with you

the type to fix your hair mid-scene because it was getting in your way

your nervous giggle at how close he was to you all of a sudden was something geto could never get enough of.

"please give us a smile," "over here! (name)! suguru!," tonight was the premiere to the movie you've been working on for the past two years ; two years of seeing each other on set everyday at 7am, bundled up in clothes and a coffee in hand.

two years of hiding the fact that you were utterly in love with each other to the world, something everyone was about to witness in the movie tonight. your roles were perfect depictions of how you were with each other ; secretive, playful, in love. truly one of your most enjoyable works of all time.

"tonight has to be a very special night for you two, how would you describe the movie in a few words?"

suguru's hand was quick to slide down to your side, warm hand caressing your bare hip. your dress being one of his favorites if he had to be honest.

sharing a glance with him and trying to decide on a shared sentence, you started laughing at his stare, as if he was daring you to admit that you two were straight up going to be fucking on a screen in front of everybody.

"pornographic-" "oh my god!" you tapped at his shoulder, squeezing it before giving the interviewer a small, delicate smile.

"it's enjoyable. not family friendly but definitely enjoyable,"

toji fushiguro

he was known to be shameless on set but you never knew how bad it was until you had to starr with him in a make-out scene.

if you had followed what the script said, the make-out session was supposed to be done when he suddenly slides his hands under your shirt

not on toji's watch.

the moment his hand slid under your shirt, he pulled away from the kiss, saying something that was utterly and completely not on the script.

"can I fuck you?"

the director was supposed to say cut.

the staff members were supposed to do something

but when you laid there on his lap, panting against his lips before nodding at him and letting the scene escalate a bit too far, all they could do was just watch it get natural.

they've never seen such good chemistry before

"rumor has it that the sex scene in reckless," you started, reading what was written on the piece of paper with a small smile, the name of the movie catching toji's attention who was playing with the puppies on the floor.

"wasn't scripted," you finished by crumbling the piece of paper and looking at the bigger man with a small grin, the lopsided smirk adorning his features sending chills down your spine as a puppy nestled itself under your sweater.

"oh hi baby,"

"to answer you," toji started, caressing the puppy in his arms before looking straight at the camera, "what if it wasn't?"

of course he wasn't going to give them an actual answer. he never did and he never felt the need to. he did what he wanted to do, when he wanted to do it which happened to work perfectly with you.

"something about the way toji stares at (name) in reckless makes me think that these two definitely have something going on, i hope it's not just me," toji read out loud, your humming as you leaned against him in a very more-than-friendly way before gazing up at him making the dark haired male man chuckle.

"will you stop with those stares?" he sounded like he was being mean when in reality, he was a bit too whipped for his own liking.

"not my fault i have pretty eyes,"

"yeah and a pretty ass too,"

"toji!"

Her First & Her Future pt 4

Maddy Perez x Reader

Word Count: 1.6k

Warnings: Violence

Summary: Maddy, Kat, and Y/n go to see Lexi's play. Surprisingly they get their own spotlight when trying to save the play from Cassie's inability to handle seeing the flaws in her own character.

An: This is end hope you guys enjoy this little series. I really enjoyed writing for Maddy.

Pt.1 Pt.2 Pt.3

Masterlist

It was finally time to see Lexi's secret masterpiece. The art that she was afraid would be too real to handle. She didn't share a lot about the play with Y/n. 

She said it was one of those pieces where art imitates life. She said that the people closest to her could end up hating her for this. Y/n thought she was being overdramatic.

However, once the play started, she had truly begun to understand what Lexi meant. This play was about them, her friends and her family. Maybe slightly protected by changes in name, but it was so obvious.

" Is that-" Maddy started.

" Us," Y/n finished, intertwining their fingers together.

Lexi was reading everyone to filth, especially Nate and Cassie. They sat a few rows back from Y/n, Maddy, and Kat.

Everyone had certain flaws and seeing them on stage was almost surreal. Y/n wasn't safe from Lexi's story. The part where they kissed under the bleachers made it into the play, also Y/n's small issue with marijuana was there, but so was her recovery. There are bits about her relationship with Maddy, but not everything.

In Lexi's play it was clear that she was scared the Y/n would turn out to be like Rue. She was scared that she would lose another one of her friends to addiction and unhealthy relationships. It made the recovery process more important for Lexi than it was for Y/n, in hindsight. It made Y/n tear up a bit.

" Are you good?" Maddy sees the tears collecting in Y/n's eyes.

The girl nods with a smile on her lips," Ya, Lexi is a fucking genius."

Then it happens. The musical scene about Y/n's brother. His hyper masculinity which can be seen as a cover for his questionable sexuality. Maddy and Kat share a look that says more than words can before glancing back at the boy.

Y/n catches her brother's eyes and she feels sorry for him. This is humiliating, it's damn near a public outing. After all he's done it seems like karma finally caught up to him, in the way it knew it would hurt him the most.

" Lexi, you're a fucking g!"

It's not a second later that Nate storms out of the auditorium and Cassie scurries after him. It only takes a few moments for the blonde girl to burst through the doors again.

An evil look on her face. She doesn't stop at her seats, instead she heads straight for the stage. 

Y/n can't believe it when Cassie actually gets on stage and begins to hijack Lexi's play. Her true ego perfectly imitated the character Lexi was depicting in her play.

During her dramatic monologue she grabs Lexi from behind the stage and drags her out in front of the crowd. When Y/n sees her best friend in tears, she decides she's had enough. Unfortunately for Cassie, Maddy also decides she's had enough in that moment. 

They both get up at the same time, but pause when they see Suze get on stage trying to handle the situation.

Cassie keeps going on her reign of terror. She even asks Lexi if this is the part of the play where she steals Jake from Marta, otherwise known as Nate and Maddy, is in the play.

" That's not in the play."

That's when Maddy can no longer hold her tongue," It is now."

The crowd ooo's as the actor playing Cassie tries to calm the real Cassie down. It's too late now, Maddy has already started.

" Not only that but she fucking him the entire time Marta was talking about getting back together with him."

" Why?"

Y/n answers this one," Cause Halle's a two faced cunt."

Cassie shoots daggers at Y/n," Oh like she didn't do the same thing to you when she left you for your brother!"

" At least she didn't let her ego stop her from apologizing in the end. We worked it out because she can admit to her mistakes. Every character in this plays has their flaws, but fuck Cassie for you to be the only one get on the stage and act just like your character speaks volumes, doesn't it?"

" Like she said, you're a two faced cunt," Maddy repeats.

" I'm not a cunt, you're the cunt," Cassie growls.

Maddie doesn't miss a beat," You're the fucking cunt bitch."

Suze tries and fails once again to get Cassie off the stage. It seems like the stagehands figured something out, the play just resumes where it left off. Which eventually pushes Cassies off the stage.

However at the sight of Halle on the carousel the audience can hear Cassie's high pitched scream from backstage. She bum rushes the actor and starts fighting with her on the stage.

Suze tries to break them apart, but it's not working. Maddy has officially had enough," Oh this bitch needs to be put down."

She's rushing towards the stage as soon as the words leave her mouth. Y/n is the first to follow the girl followed by Kat and BB. 

Kat keeps screaming," Maddy no, no,no" as she tries to get the girl.

Maddy takes her shoes off on the stairs and tosses them to Y/n. Jacob's girl stops on the edge of the stage. Kat runs past her again screaming, "Maddy, no."

While Bb is the complete opposite," Beat her ass, Maddy."

Y/n watches with wide eyes as Cassie tries to run from Maddy. However, the stage is limited. When Maddy catches her, she ends up slapping the girl dead in the face. 

Every time Maddy gets a hold of Cassie, Kat pulls her off giving the blonde another chance to scurry away. They exit through the back stage and that's when Y/n decides to follow them. She gets a glimpse of Maddy shoving Cassie's head into the brick wall, which causes her to speed up. 

She passes BB who is still encouraging Maddy's behavior. They all end up in the girl's restroom. The fight was still going until Y/n finally separated the pair.

She held Maddy from behind, keeping from the other girl. Kat stood in between the girls just in case.

" You got her, it's over," Y/n whispers into Maddy's ear. She watches as her breath returns to normal.

Y/n hesitantly lets go of Maddy who then sits on the edge of the sinks. Kat takes her place in the middle and Cassie on the other edge.

" I gotta go check on Lexi. Please don't beat this bitch up, while I'm gone," Y/n pleads to Maddy. She kisses the top of Maddy's forehead after the latina agrees to not be violent.

Then she goes back to the auditorium entering the same way she had exited before. She asks a bunch of the stage crew if they had seen Lexi, to which most of them answer no. 

She takes it upon herself to find her friend. It takes awhile, but she finds her sitting with her back against the wall talking to Bobbi. 

" Lex," she says, getting both of the girl's attention.

" Y/n I-"

Y/n cuts her off immediately," I love it. Everything about it. You're a genius Lex and you deserve this moment more than anything. Don't let her take this from you."

Lexi looks from Y/n to Bobbi and then stands. She wipes the tears from her eyes and nods her head a couple of times.

Y/n scoops the girl up in a hug," I see you and I'm so proud, Lex. Now go break a leg, while I make sure Maddy hasn't beat the shit out of Cassie."

That gets her to chuckle," Thanks Y/n."

She watches as her friend centers herself. Her professionalism takes control as she makes her way back on to the stage. Y/n waits until she hears cheers as Lexi steps back on the stage.

When she does, it's her cue to go back to the restroom to check on that situation. The silence is vast as she re-enters the bathroom, the only hint of sound comes from BB's vape.

Maddy's icing a cut on her foot with a coke can. At Y/n's entrance Cassie finally finds it appropriate to speak.

" Do you know what's funny? Nate broke up with me before I even went on that stage."

There's a knowing look in Maddy's eyes when she responds,"  Don't worry, this is just the beginning."

Cassie looks around for a moment. The redness reappeared in her eyes. It's clear she wants to cry again. Maddy doesn't stick around for the tears and instead leaves the restroom. Y/n follows her out.

" Maddy-"

" I'm good, for real."

Y/n nods," Okay."

Maddy slips her hand into Y/n's. The bruises from the fight don't  bother her in the slightest. She squeezes Y/n's hand gently," I want us to be official."

The pair walked down the school halls. Y/n responds," Are you sure?"

Maddy smiles up at the girl." Ya, I want you to be my girlfriend."

Her smile makes Y/n smile in return. " It's about fucking time."

Maddy playfully shoves her shoulder," Shut up."

Y/n laughs before pulling the girl closer into her side," I'd love to be your girlfriend Maddy."

They step out of the school doors hand in hand. The pink sky silhouettes the two as the stand atop of the steps. They stop and face each other. The birds seem to sing for them as they smile at each other.

They kiss. Passion, need, and longing, all running through their lips. They hold each other close as if they're both frightened to let go. 

Finally reality doesn't plague Y/n anymore. She's no longer just Maddy's first, but her future as well.
