wow Dandy we’re going for the personal ones huh?! Well prepare yourself for this…
4. Where to start?? I have at least 5 memories I can’t shake but all go with the most recurrent one (well the one I think about every other day you may know it already though)
anyways three christmases ago right after Christmas (like January first pretty much) my mom threw a fit because her family was (in her words) “ungrateful bastards” because the clothes she got my sister didn’t fit right and she wanted to return them, my dad got a watch that was too tight? And I got a pair of shoes I didn’t like a whole lot and this game that didn’t even go to any systems I had anyways we usally have a day shortly after Christmas where we exchange anything that didn’t fit right so these were all the things we were taking anyways when we were in the kitchen getting ready to leave I asked my mom to braid my hair because I’d just gotten up and it was a MESS and she went completely off saying I was a f***ing disgrace being 13 and still asking my mommy to braid my hair and she wished she could trade me for one of her friends good children and how I’m useless and she wishes I was never born yada yada then she started yelling at my dad, then took my little sister and left. My dad made me and my older sister make a bunch of we’re sorry signs and take pictures of us to send to her and stuff. We didn’t hear for her for hours till she came home because “I didn’t pack enough” anyways it took her like a week to talk to me much and that’s pretty much it
14. I love being teased if it’s by people I trust and not something I’m really insecure about
19. Uhmmmm close to on tumblr (pretty much just you Dandy lol) there’s nothing I really don’t like telling you about but irl? I hate anyone knowing about my writing and no one knows I had ed pretty much any mistake I’ve ever made too
Thanks for the ask Dandy <33333

( ryan gosling/ghost rider, 43, cis male, he/him ) — Look who it is! If you take a look at our database, you’ll find that RHYLAND "RHYS" SHAW is a GRAVE DIGGER that works in SECTOR 8. According to the file, they’re a mutant with the power of DEMON SYMBIOSIS + PYROKINESIS That must be why they’re BRAVE and CUNNING. If you ask me, they remind me of the smell of smoked wood, the chill feeling of fear, and a warmth of fire. They are affiliated with THE UNBURDENED. 
basic information:
character name: Rhyland Shaw
nickname (s): Rhys
face claim: Ryan Gosling
mutation status: Gen II (Demon symbiosis + Pyrokinesis)
birthday: December 22nd
sexuality: Pansexual
moral alignment: Chaotic Good
occupation: Grave Digger
work sector: Sector 8
affiliation: The Unburdened
3 positive traits: Brave, helpful, strong willed
3 negative traits: Cunning, smartass, impulsive
Tidbits until i come up with a long bio
His brother is Ezra, and though they may be the complete opposite of one another. Rhys is focused on fighting or fighting club. He is the one who is dedicated.
Now because he may be the calmer of the two, he also can have a bad temper, he can be pushed but only to a certain limit.
If you do happen to get him upset, he's not one to keep it in, he will confront who he needs to and have no problem doing so.
loves to charm others, but can be a bit of a lil shit, likes to make others laugh when he can. He's very easygoing but will also tell you what he wants.
Closer to his parents growing up, he felt more connected to their father than his mother. As the oldest sibling, he had to be an example for his younger sibling.
A grave digger, and is not at all bothered by the dead, or burying the dead. Life comes to an end, and so he just hopes he's not burying someone he loves.
Will call you out on your bullshit, or he make be annoying to those who appear cold and unbothered. He can't help that he wants people to not always be serious sometimes.
questionnaire:
how do they feel about living in sol city? have they always lived there or did they travel from another settlement? He recently found sol city, has never been. He doesn't have any issues with sol city, he thinks it's a nice place so far. It takes a while for Rhys to settle in, but for now he can manage.
do they trust the council’s leadership? why or why not? He's really indifferent to the council. Just as long as they don't mess with people he cares about. Otherwise he's going to continue living like he has.
if they chose their sector and profession, why did they make that choice? if they didn’t, why not? were they happy with their assignment or not? He chose the sector, and it's because he doesn't mind doing dirty work or work that others may not feel comfortable doing. It's a job and he doesn't care.
what’s one object that they always keep on their person? He uses a chain when he goes into ghost rider mode. It's more like a weapon for him. Other than that, he has a picture of his sibling and his parents with him at all times.
(mutant only section)
what is your character’s ability (or abilities)? He has Demon Symbiosis, in which he can be compatible with demons. Work together with a demon and become one. Usually, he has the demon of vengeance or spirit of vengeance. (sticking with the ghost rider story). He has super strength and regeneration. Pyrokinesis - the ability to create and control fire with the mind. He can create fire at will, but usally when he goes into Ghost Rider mode. Visually - when he goes into Ghost Rider, his skull will be on fire. In his human form, he does have dark black veins by his neckline. They could resemble a tattoo.
are they gen i or gen ii? Gen II
what can your character do? what are their strengths? He can fight others well in his Ghost Rider mode, and regenerate if injured. Super strength, and agility. So in human form, he can fight well, hence why he is part of the unburdened.
what can’t they do? what are their weaknesses? He can get injured like any other person. He would have to be physically well, and able to focus when he does use his powers. It can drain him if he is not focused. Water, and rain can affect his pyrokinesis ability.
is there anything else you’d like to specify about them? His hair color is blonde and you can see the transformation of his skin when he changes. His face sort of deteriorates as if it is burned off before his skull shows. It can be quite painful for him, but he learned to deal with the pain. His voice is also deeper, like the grim reaper when he talks as the Ghost Rider. He also has a ghost rider motorcycle too.

My type is:
-cosplayer: they're cool and amazing mainly but also they're shape-shifts they can be whoever they want (so cool) also just to learn to join them because I seen other couples do it and it seems cute
-goblin/crowcore : again they're cool and we can collect rocks and other knick-knacks because that's cool also walking threw the woods are amazing but having someone who also would like walking threw woods or just hiking would be cool
- cat / animals lover :I have a cat and she is my Bean and my world. nothing will make me get rid of her)
-artist :I like doing art it's doesn't matter what is. It's interesting. To have someone with similar interests
- i am neptunic meaning  I only like nonbinary and female genders : I grew up in a rural community and men are... redneck and it's to much also I just don't talk to guys likeI do women (my experience is only threw work... I haven't dated yet but talked to people) also I'm the only "girl" (I'm non-binary) in my family so just some difference.
-easy to talk to : I'm shy. Like I have people I just conversation vomit too where others I'm quite until I get they start the conversation... I would like to trust my partner and have them trust in me
-any body type :thin or curvy. I don't mind. Trust me I have curves and chub. I.... I mean I don't like myself in the mirror but that's woman's marketing baby. But I don't mind it on others
-Gamer/ board gamer?: I like playing games (mostly minecraft but I played Mario cart and smash bros... I'm not good at smash but I still enjoy playing) and I enjoy playing board games but we don't do it enough also I have no one to play with (ok that sound like a whiny child) except for brothers ( and you can only play against someone so many times) but I play other games too just need to know how to play. Also I'm used to losing or not knowing what I'm doing but I do get full of myself when I win because it's rare and i come from a competitive family who allows winning to get to their heads. But mostly, it's just fun. Also I never played DND but it would be interesting to play.
- I take pictures: I take pictures of Bean, scenery and my co-workers at my summer job a few years back (but they don't like it) but I see a picture opportunity and try to take it (mostly when the thing I'm talking a picture of moves it does ruining it) so I'll probably try to take pictures of my partner.... if they allow
I tend to say sorry about everything: I will say sorry more than anyone. Even over things I don't have control over. I cower when yelled at... or argue back but that's rare because I don't like conflict and my go to is apologizing.
I have a lot of things wrong with me: I studded (I hate it), I have things mentally wrong (I don't know what because even though I say I will like to figure out what's wrong... I don't and life goes on 👍), I have trauma may it be from my home life or my school life I been scared. I might have dyslexia, I swear words gets me all the time. I get spooked easily but I tend to jump, get away from what scared me then laugh at myself or just freeze, and try to get out of the situation. I have socal anxiety (I think) my brain spirals and I'm stressed and panic in different social situations or if something goes wrong (I also beat myself over it) or just talk it out if something traumatic happens (usally sounding mad whenI do. So a partner who can calms me and supports me is a must
I don't know what this is. maybe I'm just shooting my shot and get a Tumblr partner. Why not. That would interesting, right.
Thank you for reading this train wreck of a post and having a great day

Rank Dynamics Model by Schindler applied to the „Guren Squad“
I infected a friend of mine with the Cat16 light novels recently. She's head over heels as well now 😄
Fortunately she studies social work so she has a lot to do with psychology models for groups and therefore she wanted to apply the rank dynamic model on the main group in different stages of the light novels. And me and one other friend loved it so much that I asked her if I could share it with Tumblr.
In summary, it was super interesting to see how the model explains a lot of the dynamics going on and especially why the group works so well. (in comparison to another group... I'm looking at you, Yuu squad)
The rank dynamic model
First of all, some basic explaination about the rank dynamic model so you will understand the pictures. The model is valid at a certain time you look at the group. Group dynamics can change and roles can switch.
And most important: this has nothing to do with Alpha/Beta/Omega verse. You probably guessed but I just wanted to add this 😁
The model consist of 5 different roles:
Alpha, Gamma, Omega, Beta and Opponent
Alpha
decides what the group does
rarley has to argue for his opinion
leads
his goals are the group‘s goals
he has to be ,,part of the group“
Omega
counterpole to Alpha
he often trys to get in the heads ot the people outside ot the group dynamik
critcizes and questions Alpha‘s Ideas - He does this because he thinks is best for the group but it causes the „Gammas“ to dismiss Omega
often acts as scapegoat in the releationship
the group usually thinks that Omega is in the way of a solution
Gamma
Yes-man
Try to convince others of the Alpha
Identifies with Alpha‘s goals
bored
agressiv or mean when it comes to Omegas Opinions/person
Gammas (= Group Majority) chose the Alpha
Beta
Neutral
tries to mediate between the group and Omegas
usually Alpah‘s secound in command because they give advice to Alpha
not driven by emotion like Alpha
most likely to take over Alphas Position because the Majority of Gammas trust them
Opponent
all other people who are not in the group usally a certain person acts as stand for the „outsiders“ as they hinder the sucess of the group or oppose the goals of the group
The model applied
Beginning of the books
As Shinya, Mito and Goshi are not yet part of the group, we have to look at two groups separately. From Shinya's perspective Guren is the Omega, questioning his decisions. Their common enemy at that moment is Kureto.
Shinya’s perspective
Tumblr media
When we look at Guren's perspective, Shinya seems to be his opponent. Sayuri and Shigure follow Guren. And even Mahiru seems to be a Guren simp.
Guren’s perspective
Tumblr media
During the tournament
During book 1 the dynamic changes. While Kureto is still their enemy, Guren slowly moves into a supporting role for Shinya.
Shinya’s perspective
Tumblr media
After the attack on the school
As soon as the school is attacked and Guren shows his true powers, we don't need to separate the groups anymore. Guren's the alpha of the group and this doesn't change till the end of the books.
What's interesting though is that Mahiru becomes the opponent of the group. And Mito and Goshi become the Gamma's of Guren, accepting him as the new leader while Shinya starts supporting Guren as well. For Kureto we weren't sure. That's why he's on the line between Omega and Opponent.
Tumblr media
The team under Kureto
Kureto calls the group into his office and initially forms their team. Though they never worked together, because of the attack at the school, their roles are already well defined. That is why their team works almost immediately.
Shinya doesn't claim the alpha position or challenges Guren and therefore takes the place of the Beta. Sayuri and Shigure are located on the line because they more closely are connected to Guren than Mito and Goshi.
Kureto is the external Alpha. He gives the orders. Yet, the team still follows only Guren's command. Mahiru is still the enemy of course.
Tumblr media
Book 7
As already said, the team doesn't change much anymore. Just Kureto isn't the external Alpha anymore. We put him in the gamma section as he also started to help Guren though not really being part of the group. (but still also kind of a Guren simp).
In one scene of book 7, Shinya challenges Guren and even is about to take the Alpha position from him when he offers to sacrifice himself with Goshi. Therefore the small icon on Omega. Shinya questions Guren's decisions (or rather non-decisions) and starts making his own. After all he's doing it to make Guren take back his Alpha role and continues deciding for the team. It's the only time we could think of where there is actually movement of roles within the team.
Tumblr media
And this is how it stays until Catastrophe at Sixteen ends.
Do you have thoughts on this or questions? Did we miss some interesting scenes or dynamics?
There is no right or wrong while applying a model. Maybe you would have applied it differently? You can deinfelty tell me your ideas about it 😊
This is just out result from one evening of discussing and moving character icons left an right 😄
If you made it to this point, I hope it was interesting for you and that you maybe learned something new about the group and their dynamics.

Haikyuu and mha reaction to you having a really weird aniamal specifically dogs and cats( Question of the day: what characters from mha, or Haikyuu that you like most people don't pay attention to or don't like)
So if you are allergic to cats and dogs just pretend your notლↂ‿‿ↂლ hope you enjoy
Yaku
Tumblr media
Now you guys usally hang out at his cute and small like yaku café
But it was closed so you guys went to your house
He didn't think much your his s/o why would this be weird
When you got there it mostly was you and yaku casually talking
Until Yaku heard one of the squeakiest bark
You never told him you had a dog
Yaku was smiling just waiting for the dog to come in
When a small dog, with messy hair, and looked like it should be dead came wobbling in he literally put his hand over his mouth
"Y/n why does it look like that," he said looking concern
"Don't call them an it, there name is Princess look how pretty she is," you said picking up the dog who kept barking at yaku
He tried so hard not to laugh when he heard that you call the dog princess
When the dog jumped out of your arm and start screeching at yaku he let out the such a high pitch scream
He couldn't beleive he was going to lose to such a small dog
When you ask if he likes princess
He really says no❤
Keep that dog away from him for the sake of his eardrums
Oikawa
Tumblr media
Now you were on a walk with your dog
Now you didn't think oikawa would run into you
When he did though and said sorry and looked over at your dog
Who was smiling at oikawa
He automatically went to pet the little cutie just thinking it was another regular dog
When he started petting your dog he wasn't expecting your dog to just bite his FACE
When I tell you he let iut the girliest scream
He just started complaining about how your dog almost ruined his perfect face
He stopped talking when he felt your dog HUMPING HIM
Yeah its normal for dogs to do that to other dogs
But he isn't a dog
He honestly was petrified, and started screeching
Everyone was staring at you ... including Karasuno who was watching the whole thing
Kageyama, Tsukishima, and Sugawara won't EVER let him live this down
someone recorded him and Iwaizumi didn't talk to him for 3 weeks
Yeah he absolutely terrified of that dog
Yamaguchi
Tumblr media
Now Yamaguchi already knew about your cat
You sent a picture of them and he thought they were so cute
So when you guys were in your room and your cat came in he got excited
...
Why did your cat look so mad in a bunny costume
Like the cat looked so grumpy
But when you picked them up it was all of a sudden happy
Now your cat didn't do much during Yamaguchi firsy time meeting him
But the second time
Now you left Yamaguchi alone to get something, and your cat was in the same room
Your cat literally jumped on the desk you and Yamaguchi was working on and started pushing things off
automatically Yamaguchi started saying no picking up things after them
When he tried keeping the cat still
The cat got on his hind legs and literally slapped the poor boy claws and everything
You was not expecting to walk in to your boyfriend on the floor with your cat messing things up
All I'm saying is that your cat remind him waaaayyyy too much of his old bullies
Tamaki
Tumblr media
Okay it took him so much time but you two went to hang out in your room
He really tried his best to be cool but he kept stuttering
When a dog walked im with a turtle on his head he was a little confused
But he think your doggo is cute
Now time pass and tamaki starts wondering about your dog, seeing if they were gone
When he looked up and saw your dog sitting like a normal human smiling at him he literally flinched
"Ummm y/n is that normal," he said pointing at the dog who eyes were now really wide, and was vibrating
When you turn around and just nods he whimpers a little
He tries to ignore them but he keeps feeling your dog staring at him
When he turns around and your dog jumps on him biting his balls
He screams
You have to comfort him because he actually crying
That dog is probably in his nightmares
Denki
Tumblr media
Okay going to be completely honest, almost killed your cat
So you guys were in your living room since your parents were gone
You guys were watching a scary movie
But he kept hearing screaming that wasn't coming from the movie
So you had to stop mutiple times and tell him nothing is there
Now it's almost the end of the movie when he feel breathing on the back at his neck then hissing
He slowly turn around seeing a angry cat about to scratch him
He accidentally touched the cat and short circuited
⚆_⚆ This was literally his reaction realizing he just killed your cat
But when your cat literally jumped op and walked away he almost had a heart attack
He honestly can't look at your cat the same
Again your cat will give him nightmares
Shinsou
Tumblr media
Okay this dude loooovvveeee cats
And he adore your cat even though he thought it died atleast 6 times already
You two were watching a show he was laying on the floor next to you
He saw a cute cat walk up to him purring
He automatically smiling about to say something until the cat literally laid on his face
He couldn't breathe so you had to get your cat off of him
When you did he was laughing so much
He allowed the cat to sit on his lap
When you guys were in your room once with your cat
Your cat literally just fell to the ground and closed his eyes
Shinsou got really worried thinking your cat died
Until your cat just started wiggling making the purple hair boy laugh
When your busy he'll definitely take little naps with your cat
honestly since your cat can live for really long it's basically your two child

I HAD THE BEST BYLER DREAM LAST NIGHT AND I REALLY WANNA SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL
it's so long (literally 2k words) so im gonna put it under the cut haha <3
so basically this would take place after mike and will start dating or something, idk exactly the time frame (i picture them being like 18 or something and this is the summer before college) and will goes to this summer arts program for like 2/3 months (i dunno how long american summer is but something like that) and its all the way far from home so there is dorms and stuff and he's "not in hawkins anymore" (no pun intended)
mike and will decide after will finishes his school they'd go to college together (cuz they're gonna be comic book artists together bc thats boyfriend shit) so throughout these months he's practically just waiting for will (<333333)
so one specific scene i remember from my dream involved will and mike getting off the bus to the school and then they hug and then mike grabs wills hand and brings him behind the bus and then he gives will a biggg kiss bc he won't be able to kiss him for 3 months. then they say they love each other and will gives him another quick kiss and is like "two kisses". they agree they'd call each other every day.
so will goes inside and mike goes back on the bus and goes home.
and basically the whole day is a whirl, until the end of it, in which mike is sitting in the kitchen near the phone waiting for like 3 hours for will to call, and will doesn't end up calling.
AND THEN IT GETS SPICYYYYY
so meanwhile at the arts program will asks like the front desk or something if he can call mike and they say phone is offlimits and they don't let him call mike
so then will goes to sleep and he's paranoid that he thinks mike is gonna hate him or something like that
mk than the next day in class there is this girl (they didn't reveal her name in the dream, ill call her stella) so stella is basically looking at will the entire class but will doesn't know it
so when they exit the class stella's like "hi" and will says "hi"
then stella says "i like your painting."
will is like rlly weirded out so he goes "thanks?"
"i um- hope this doesn't sound weird but i have no friends, do you want to be mine?"
"sure"
and then end of scene (this does not sound like a normal conversation but it's my dream so it doesn't have to make sense"
so BACK AT HAWKINS mike is still sleeping even tho it's like 3 pm because yk depressed boyfriend shit but then the PHONE RINGS and mike gets out of bed frantically and goes to the phone and he picks it up and is like "will?" and then it answers "it's el, idiot"
i feel like this is important for context but el speaks english very well now and hoppers back and she lives with hopper and not the byers anymore. ANYWAYS
el says "how's will?"
mike says "idk he didn't call"
"he didn't?"
"no, he didn't"
"okay. well maybe he will call later"
"yeah mb"
"wanna come over"
"ok"
so mike hangs up and gets changed and goes to el's house bc they r a couple o' besties and when he gets there it's like a therapy sessions bc mike usally talks to will every single day and he can't for like 3 months (unless will calls, but he's not going to) so he accepts he's gonna be depressed for 3 months and he's just talking to el about how he's gonna miss him so much and no be able to see his face and that shit
so el's like "well do u wanna do something to take ur mind off of him"
and mike's like "no im not gonna replace will" (I SCREAMED IN MY DREAM SRSLY)
but than el says "okay. guess im gonna go to the mall by myself" (ig starcourt is rebuilt by now)
and than mike bolts up and is like "fine"
"we can by something for will"
"okay yay"
so then they go to starcourt yasss!!
anyways back at the art school will is having lunch and stella is with he friends (even tho she said she doesn't have any friends) and one of her friends is like "omg did you see _____ he's so hot"
and another friend says "YESS! but ____ is cuter"
"what abt u stella? who do u have ur eyes on"
she says "byers" BUT NOOOOOOO WILL IS MIKES MAN
and they say "ew that kid who came back to life"
she says "yea. but he's cute, and shy, and once i wrap them around my finger i can get them to do anything"
so then she goes to sit down next to will at lunch
"hi will"
"hi"
"hru"
"im good"
"okay. good." and she gets upset because will goes ask how she is but she keeps her urging rage inside. and than they have this weird conversation and will is uncomfortable the whole time bc shes all like flirting with him and will is seeing someone obvi
but then she puts a hand on will's shoulder and he's shaking and then says something (idk what it is it wasn't explaining in my dream) then will stands up and runs to the bathroom. so he's just sitting in the stalls crying.
okay back at starcourt this part wasn't shown in my dream but im just gonna make up that mike and el go looking around starcourt for something for will (sort of like the mike/lucas/will montage where they were looking for stuff for el) and then i guess they find something for will and i don't have the slightest idea what they could have got for him BUT THEY GOT HIM SOMETHING GOOD
so mike's all happy but they'res still that depression inside of him lol
so fast forward a week, it really isn't explained but ill just make up that will still hasn't called mike, and he's super sad and all sleeping in but decides to look through his good ol binder full of will's drawings and in the arts school will and stella have a few more interactions im sure which are still very uncomfortable
okay so it's lunch again in the cafeteria and somehow will and stella are talking again but somehow it ends in stella kissing will and will like pulls away immediatley and is like "what is wrong with you!?"
and she says "what?"
"i'm seeing someone!"
"oh i uh- i didn't know."
the whole cafeteria is staring at them
so will's freaking out almost on the verge of a panic attack "idk what to do, he's gonna hate me and-"
"he?"
will has the look on his face like shit shit shit oh fuck no
"you're gay?"
"i-"
and will runs off once again. and everyone in the whole cafeteria knows that he's day and ofc with everybody being homophobic will knows it's not good at all bc everyone's gonna bully him
so then the next day he goes to class and the teacher is like "does anyone care to tell me where ___ is?" (it would be like a math question like 'where x is' but in art idkkk) and then the teacher calls on "will? can you tell me where ___ is?" and they'res a pause and then the teacher says "or perhaps you'd want to find your boyfriend instead?" (giving me anne with an e vibes prolly cuz i did a rewatch last weekend but i won't explain more in case some people haven't watched it but) anyways will stands up from his seat, everyone is looking at him, and he's shaking and so concerned but then he goes "fuck. you" badass will yeaaaa thats my boy
so then he runs out of the classroom and out of the school in a really cool montage way but then he realizes he's like 2 hours away from home but he runs and runs and he goes to a random bustop (it's not even garanteed if it takes him to hawkins but whatever) he gets on and tries to go back to hawkins.
and soon enough, he gets there, and immediatley goes to the wheelers because he needs to see mike and apologize for everything. so he's at the wheelers, and rings the doorbell, realizing he's still in his uniform lol but karen answers and mike is upstairs in his room sulking (i picture it would be 8 pm by now) so will asks for mike and karen calls mike. mike groans obviously because he doesn't know it's his boy, but he comes down, karen gets out of the way and as soon as he sees will they have a really big hug and it's super sweet and my heart UFHEIOSKA
mike says his usual "are you okay?" and mike is still confused as shit but will says "i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry" and mike says "you don't have to be sorry for anyrhing" but will says "ill explain"
so then they go to will's room, side-by-side on his bed and will starts explaining everything
(this is mostly improvised by me but it's still pretty similar to the dream)
"i hated it."
"the school?"
"yeah. there was no you, (mike blushes lmao), everything was terrible, i felt so lonely, they didn't let me call you-"
"what?"
"they said the phone was off limits. i wanted to talk to you so bad and i thought you'd hate me"
"i could never hate you, will, even if i tried." will smiles
"and then there was this girl, and she hit on me and i didn't know what to do bc i'd be the face of the school if i told her i was dating you and was gay and today she kissed me"
"WHAT"
"im sorry im sorry i didn't kiss back and i was so scared bc i never was in a relationship before and i was so scared it was considered cheating-"
and mike LAUGHSS
"what? mike? what's wrong?"
"if you don't do anything back, it's not considerd 'cheating'"
"oh. good. are you mad at me?"
"what? no! no never!" so mike opens his arms and says "come here" so will and mike hug or something like that and then mike says "do you need me to beat her up?"
and will says "you can't even beat eggs. besides, your noodle arms wouldn't be able to do harm to even a fly"
so mike laughs and says "i'm glad your home"
so will blurts "i cursed out a teacher"
"you? cursing?"
"yes."
"might have to start calling you a bad boy now"
will just smiles and says "i love you"
and mike says "i love you too"
AND THEN END AND IM SO PROUD OF MYSELF BC I LOVE THIS DREAM LIKE I CAN'T BELIEVE MY BRAIN THOUGHT OF THIS BUT IM OBSESSED
ALSO ONCE I FINISH WYBMFFAE ILL PROBABLY WRITE THIS INTO A FULL BLOWN FIC BUT AHIHFUSAH
edit: i have no idea what mike did with the present him and el bought for will but i guess they ended up giving it to him lol

deuce headcanons because i can and you can’t physically stop me
gay as fuck and his gay awakening was ace
okay now that we have canon shit established onto the rest
He keeps a copy of Brag Men on him at All times
He has no formal training in any weapon so he’s mostly hand to hand but as the spades journey he slowly gains proficiency in the rapier and pistols.
His mask sometimes slips off but he doesn’t always notice so crew members will either gently put it back in place for him (Ace) or slap at his face to make him put it back on (everyone else)
he’s a former rich boy and is constantly like “how much can a banana cost? Two hundred belli?” and Ace, who has never paid for anything in his life, is like sounds legit, while Mihar takes them both and teaches them about Real Money Adult Pirates Deal With, which means Deuce deals with Ace’s wallet from here on out.
Deuce is fantastic at gambling until the very last moment where he always does the worst thing possible. He blames Ace and his naming abilities, but eventually learns to team up with Ace, who only gets lucky at the end, and destroy everyone else.
Skull has a copy of Brag Men. Deuce talks with him about it sometimes.
Theres only Two People who Deuce respects on this ship and its Ace and Kotatsu who don’t fucking laugh at his writing. Banshee’s okay but she criticizes his metaphors.
Deuce runs very cold and therefore is an Ace magnet because Ace just wants to 1) get rid of nightmares and 2) not be smokin hot for once.
Skull, Deuce, and Mihar have a brain cell meeting once a week. Its with alcohol infused haki and sad expressions of having only 3 brain cells on the crew.
Deuce steals Saber’s cowboy hat so he and ace match
Deuce has two freckles under his left eye, covered by the mask. 
He has the worst bed head in the history of the world and will chuck random objects at anyone who mentions it
Ace came up with thhe Spades Pirates while Deuce came up with the Spadille for the ship name.
Former Society Man Deuce knows how to do the waltz and teaches Ace.
Despite his writing, he is the best at campfire stores when the crew comes to a deserted island.
All of Deuce and Ace’s heart to heart conversations happen at Sunset just as when they first talked post Devil Fruit Eating.
He didn’t want to be the Spades doctor. He was done with medical shit, he was a pirate writer now, not some nurse, but after the third time Ace nearly bled out due to his own stupidity Deuce started grabbing medical books at the islands they visited.
Deuce buys books at every island they visit, and helps Mihar (SOMETIMES) with his lessons - usually Aggie helps, but Aggie’s a bit scary for kids and kids like his mask so! Deuce helps it is.
Benn Beckman is Deuce’s favorite person in the entire world because he is the only one who knows how to deal With Stupid Stupid Captains (Who you may be a bit in love with.) 
Deuce leads the charge to get Ace back with the WB’s kidnap him and keeps on trying to get to Ace before finally running into him and making sure he’s okay.
The Rose is Deuce’s calling card (see his design, theres a rose on his pants or something like it) and it became so because he put a rose in Ace’s hair one day and had to back track because he couldn’t tell Ace he gave him the rose or ace would have feelings.
Deuce is the only Spade who knows about Ace’s dad and he always intervenes when the Spades talk about Roger.
I can’t remember if Ace had his tattoo before he set sail but if not, Deuce got a tat with him, a spade on his right shoulder, wreathed in fire. Ace cried.
Deuce writes back to his family only once and attached is his bounty. They write back, but the letter never reaches Deuce. 
Deuce is a crappy swimmer but still tries to get Ace out of the water. He fails. Cornelia usally does it, cause She’s Cool Like That.
Deuce hides away on the Spadille sometimes to just read some Brag Men when everything gets too much. 
For his birthday, the crew gets him a visual denden so he can take pictures of the places he goes to write about later. he would be touched if they also didnt smash his face into the cake.
His favorite food is pineapples. 
He is the only other person brave enough to go on Striker with Ace because he helped built it.
Deuce helps keep the Spadille together until they get a shipwright. 
The crew seems to have personal or paired cabins on the spadille so Deuce bunks with Ace. 
He hates his offical epitheth and wished he got a cool name like Fire Fist Ace. 
deuce dies at marineford 
Post-marineford, Deuce tries to track down the mera mera no mi so he can have it, like he would have if he had taken the first bite. instead, he finds sabo and they cry together.
Deuce is terrified of chickens which is revealed when Ace thinks its a great idea to bring chickens onto the spadille for an endless supply of eggs. Its horrible. Deuce cries. 
more to be added later lmao i love this man and his crush

My notes about the article:
"REPORT: ‘VELMA’ Character Descriptions Hint at HBO Max’s Reinterpretation of the Scooby Gang'
By Joseph Aberl on murphys multiverse
My notes about said article where i talk about opinions of the information just released.
"It looks like Shaggy is the editor-in-chief of Poortown High’s newspaper. He’ll be on the spectrum and has a hard time handling social norms especially when he is Velma’s only real friend. It looks like there’s a family secret, which he’ll need to solve with her help. So, we’ll see what pushes him towards the type of character we know him as in the series."
Super awesome that we get some cannon autistic characters, and not just like us making up headcannon about characters like fred being autistic because the way he acts is similar. Being nerodivergent myself and have a tough time with social norms im very excited👍👍👍👍. Seems like this show will be less mystery and dive more into the gang themselves tho altho there is the family secret they will be dealing with. Which i dont mind to a certain extent, hopefully they dont make the show too cheesy
"Daphne is the adopted daughter of two female police officers, who still faces daily challenges of being abandoned. There’s a curious emphasis of her red hair and she’s quite ruthless in trying to become the popular kid in their school."
Lesbian representation 👍👍👍👍 as a pan guy i love that. Personally im not a huge fan of the police but im sure them being cops wont be a huge part of the show as the show will mostly be themed around velma.
Its nice that she isn't already the popular kid like in other scooby show where her main personality trip is automatically 'the popular pretty girl' and its cool that we get to see her work up her way to being popular.
"Some characteristics remain for Fred Jones, who’ll be a “gym rat, riddled with daddy issues.” It seems that he’ll also face the trouble of never having gone puberty and is trying to hide it from Daphne, who he is dating in the series. All it takes is a false imprisonment to get the gears in motion and he learns to value Velma."
The gym rat thing may be upseting to some people as ive noticed there are a lot of tumblr users who picture him more as a theatre kid than a sports kid. The daddy issues is already somthing established in the past, with mystery Incorporated, as he was raised by a dad that wasnt even his own and kidnapped him from the original parents. I feel like daphne would notice if fred had gone threw puberty very easily because its usally pretty easy to tell. Fred and daphne offically dating which is sweet, because all threw out the past series' they liked to tease us with the "are they dating? or are they not?" Thing where they would kiss occasionally but it was never offical.
Overall excited to see what they do with this show. No news about what ive been hearing people want on tumblr (like fred saying "fuck" or velma being a lesbian) but we might get it, we might not. We will have to wait and find out

When I'm With You - C.H.
Tumblr media
Summary: Calum is on a much needed break when he meets the one person who can make him feel himself again.
A/N: This is inspired by the song I like me better by Lauv. The moodboard is made by me as well. 
To be young and in love in New York City
To not know who I am
But still know that I’m good long as you’re here with me
To be drunk and in love in New York City
Midnight into morning coffee, burning through the hours talking
Damn
Calum can exactly remember how he met you for the first time. He was on vacation. Finally seeing New York. Not being there to promote another album or having to do any kind of band stuff. This should be a way to lay low for a while.
A time he desperately needed. Already on the verge of feeling like he was losing himself a long time ago and not knowing how to turn back. The dark haired man knew how much he troubled his friends and mostly family with his behaviour recently.
But there was nothing any of them could do. It was not his family or friends fault. Being in the industry, everything was so self-centred and usually Calum did a good job staying low and keep his feet on the ground. Lately he recognized his own change and he didn’t like that at all.
So, he made the decision to take some time to himself and try to figure everything out. In his mind, there would be no better place than New York to exactly do that. It was the one place that did hold good memories for him. Something that was far away and still could feel like home.
It was Calums first night in New York. Just flown in, he decided to start off with having a night out. No party, just a little bar and a drink. After taking his wallet and key card leaving his room and making the way out of the hotel.
He walked for a while around the neighbourhood. Looking around and catching a few sights, taking mental notes on what he wants to see later before spotting an inconspicuous bar. All black and just with a little light but still homely. Exactly what he had been searching for.
It’s not a big one and there are not many guests as well. Everything is wooden, a counter taking place on the right side of it. Sofas are pressed against the light grey walls and in the middle is decorated with lots of tables and chairs.
Calum orders himself a beer and sits on one of the sofas that are standing in a corner. Being careful that not too many people can see him but him still being able to sit around and watch others. He would much prefer to stay incognito for a while. Calum knew that people in New York barely gave a shit but as of now he rather be safe than sorry.
Looking around the bar someone is catching his attention immediately. The way they leaned against the chair, strands of hair falling into their face while they seemed to be engrossed into the book they are holding. The sleeves of a black hoodie tucked over their hands. A bottle of beer standing in front of them.
The Y/E/C coloured eyes following the lines that are written, completely blacking out all surroundings. At least until they takes a sip from your beverage.
That’s when they catch Calum watching. A small smile gracing their lips and swears he can hear his heart stop beating, trying to catch his breath. Him thinking how stunning the person is. But at the same time shaking his head. He feels crazy for being so intrigued over a stranger at a bar. Sure he was no stranger for making friends that way. But it was usally when he went out with the boys to party. Not while he was sitting around basically lonely in a bar.
Little did he know that you feel the same about him. The brown coloured eyes watching them but in no disturbing way. As soon as he sees you watching, he turns his gaze somewhere else. A faint colour of red on his cheeks, making you chuckle over it. He is cute and in a way he also felt familiar to you but nevertheless very cute.
You turn your attention back to the book to the relieve of Calum. Meanwhile he secretly tries to steal glances at you, for whatever reason contemplating if he should get up and talk to you or if that would be just too crazy. He was never a shy person, always outgoing and down for an adventure. During the change and uncertain, Calum get nervous. He starts playing with his hands, trying to get his mind somewhere else. It doesn’t work. From time to time he still takes a glimpse back to you.
Both of them taking a glance at the same time and his eyes are switching fast enough to the empty bottle in front of him. That’s at least what he thinks until someone coughs in front of him. His eyes widen and Calums mouth slightly falling open when he sees you standing there.
A smile on your face and book in one hand, extending the other one to him.
“Hi.” Your voice sounding soft and kind to him. He stares for a moment before taking your hand in his.
“H-Hi.” He stumbles over the greeting.
“Soo. I saw you watching me and thought I would at least introduce myself.” He could hear the teasing voice and instantly turned a shade of red again.
“I-Im so sorry.”You interrupted him fast.
“Don’t worry, I saw you kinda, too.” Both of you laughing about the situation.
“Would you mind if I take the seat?” The brunette showed that he was okay with it and soon the conversation started to flow.
I like me better when I’m with you
I like me better when I’m with you
I knew from the first time, I’d stay for a long time, ‘cause
I like me better when-
I like me better when I’m with you
Turns out that you kinda did know who Calum was. Just in other ways he had thought. Having a cousin who was a big 5SOS fan, you were more or less forced to listen to some of his music. Being a fan but not like he had expected.
You were a pleasant surprise. The two connected in a lot of ways. It started from having similar interests, pet peeves as well the reason why you two found your way to New York. Taking time off to see a little bit from the world and find yourselves.
Both stayed the whole night together, talking, taking glances at each other and just enjoying each other company. Shy Calum dissappeareand for the first time in a long time there was his old self. Making fun, enjoying the time he was having without the pressure of maintaining a perfect imagine for the media or who knows what.
Calum, at first, was a little unsure because he didn’t know if he could trust you. But as time went on he started to feel a lot more comfortable with you. Starting to give him a safe feeling as the conversation went on. He knew he couldnt completely let his guard down, yet. But when time came around two in the morning and the bar started to close down he started to feel disappointed that soon your ways could split. He enjoyed the time and was not ready to let you go, yet. So, he took all of his confidence and ask your number which you gladly gave him.
It felt like a connection between the two, nothing to be named yet but nevertheless, it felt good. Both wanting to know more about each other and at least get to spend some more time with the stranger who gave them a close feeling.
I don’t know what it is but I got that feeling
Waking up in this bed next to you
Swear the room, yeah, it got no ceiling
If we lay, let the day just pass us by
I might get to too much talkin’, I might have to tell you somethin’
Damn
The morning after you two met, you went for a coffee in an 80’s inspired bistro. It was one of the funniest things Cal ever did. Talking about past, present, dreams, futures, jokes and all you two could think about. It felt natural, normal and all in all like you knew each other much longer than a day.
The week continued with both owalkingf you spending time together. Going through the Central Park where first his pinky would graze yours until his hand would hold yours. A smile playing along both of your faces. Calum and you would visit different sights. Seeing the Liberty of State, Staten Island or going to different museums or just spending time in their rooms talking.
Another Highlight was the Empire State Building. Both of you always wanting to go there. The view was incredible, but someone was more intriguing to him. You.
Leaning against a little bit behind, he watched how you took a few photos of it. He could imagine how you must be smiling over it. Just as you were trying to take another picture of the sunset, he slung his arms around your waist.
“Sorry.” He cheeky whispered with his mouth pressed against your hair.
Your sweet scent filling his nose and for a moment he closed his eyes inhaling it. He only had a few days left until he would have to leave New York and you. Trying to hold onto the time a little bit more, he didn’t want to go. Meanwhile you had turned your camera around and took a photo of you two together.
Calum opened his eyes, smiling into the lens before pressing a kiss onto your head. You looked up to him. Smiling at him before he lowered his head and pressed a short and sweet kiss to your lips. You turned around, your hands crossing over his neck before pressing him down to you and kissing him again. This time both of your lips pressing longer together, moving against each other.
He places his forehead on yours once you started to loosen the kiss. Both having your eyes closed for a moment to enjoy each other’s presence. Slowly opening his eyes, he sees you watching him. Taking all of him in. A huge smile not able to hide on your face. He smiles back. His eyes twinkling at you.
His hand cupping your cheeks. Before taking your hand and leading you down again. The sun has already set, and it starts getting cold so both of you decide to go back visit the dinner you went earlier the week.
When you two walk into the pink themed dinner, hands holding, the waitress is smiling. You two take a up a little pink booth in the back. Both ordering a coffee and a tea with strawberry cheesecake. As soon as the waitress leaves the two continue to smile at each other and Calum could swear he has not stop smiling since the night you both met in the bar.
When your beverages arrive, Cal can see you crinkling your nose over his. A small laugh escaping his lips.
“What is it now, love?” You force your eyes away from his tea, your cheeks heating up in embarrassment over being caught by him.
“I don’t get how you can drink your tea with milk.”
“I can’t believe how you can drink your coffee without it.” He teases. Grinning at each other before laughing about it. You cross yours and his fingers on the table and Cal swears he feels like so intoxicated by you. It’s the good kind. The one that makes him smile so hard and he can’t stop. His stomach tingling like there are actual butterflies or whatever people believe in.
He rubs his thumb over your hand, pressing light kisses on to it once or twice, while the two continue to talk over god and the world.
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Stay here with me
Stay awhile, stay awhile, oh
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Stay here with me
Lay here with me
It’s three days before Calum has go back to L.A. and he still feels like he is not ready to. Not willing to let you go, if he could ever at this point. It’s raining outside when he asks you to come to his room to spend the day. He doesn’t feel like exploring, just laying next to you and enjoying each other’s presence.
But you have other plans for him. Lying to him and telling that the clerk doesn’t let you in. Calum is forced to go to the entrance of the hotel. That’s where you are standing, waiting for him with an umbrella in the hand and a big smile.
He can’t help himself but to smile back at you. His jacket in one hand, pressing a light kiss to your forehead as he hugs You. Your arms naturally going around his waist. They are not leaving as he leans back.
“Didn’t you say, you don’t get in?” He teases you.
A smug smile on your face. “I lied.”
“Why?”
You press your hands against his sides.
“Because it rains.” A laugh escaping him.
“Love, hate to break it to you but I once lived in england. It constant raining there.” You playfully roll your eyes at him before crossing your hands behind his neck and pressing him down.
“Very funny.” Your lips hovering over his.
“You know what rain means?” He is intoxicated by your scent as you whisper. He wants to press his lips against yours but you slowly lean back.
“It means…” You continue before taking his hand.
“That we need to go dance.” Dragging him outside into the rain. Cal looks up to the sky and it’s pouring.
But it’s not concerning them. Their holding hands and just start dancing in the middle of the sidewalk. He can feel his hair even more curling and in the matter of seconds both are soaked. After what felt like eternity Cal stops you and presses himself against you once again. Holding your cheeks while slowly pressing his lips against your after giving them a little squish.
When both stop to take a breath and the maori man whispers
“You know what you remind me of?” You shake your head while he smiles.
“Home and I w-wanted to ask if y-you would like to come to L.A. with me?” Your eyes widen and her mouth falls open.
“Do you mean that?” You nervously asks.
“Of course. I only have a few days left but I’m not ready to let you go. I didn’t say it until now, but you make me feel incredible. I feel at home in your arms and I need you. If it wouldn’t be too early, I would say three different words.”
Calums eyes are closed, and his head is pressed against yours as he talks. He can’t see it, but your eyes are glazed over his words. You squish his cheeks back a bit before pressing your lips against his.
“Yes.” The brunette man opens his eyes at you, starts smiling and twirling you around.
Both laughing like little kids. They spend a while like this until running back into the hotel and Calums room.
I knew from the first time, I’d stay for a long time ,cause
I like me better when I’m with you (yes, I do, yes, I do, babe)
I like me better when I’m with you (ooh, no)
I like me better when
I like me better when I’m with you
Better when, I like me better when I’m with you
Now he is watching you, sleeping peacefully next to him. The next morning having already arrived. Having talked through a night again and falling asleep next to each other. He doesn’t know how it happened, but he feels like the kid from Australia again. Calum starts to feel like himself. Like he is content and happy with the world for once. If he knows one thing for certain than that he would onto it, hold onto you. For as long as he could. He truly liked himself better and only because of you.

The way it all began - ONE SHOT
Summary: You were about to prepare yourself for your 3rd year anniversary with Chris Evans as a couple and you remember the day you met him and how slowly you fell for him.
A/N: I know this isn't Queen's but I also love the Avengers likeeeeee a lot (stupid 13 yo voice in  my head right now) and also with a huge crush on Captain America because... HAVE YOU SEEN HIM?!
Just a bit much of fluff right now, because I'm in no mood for drama. Hope you like it!!
Word counting: 2720
~~~
Tumblr media
There you were, talking non-stop about Marvel's latest movie and your bestie couldn't hear you for another second. You were babbling something about being able to meet the Avengers and she was yet so bored. Julia cared about make-up, music, dancing. You soon realised you had no rythm or whatsoever so the only dance you could do was the one you do when you had a few more beers and didn't really cared about who saw you dance.
"But you see if I meet Captain America and he asks me to dance, I won't be able to accept unless I make a total fool of myself" your eyes layed on Julia and she laughed.
"I cannot believe you would be that bad... I have been trying to teach you a few steps... And why not Thor? Have you SEEN those biceps?" you nodded thinking it might be another good guy to date but Evan's and his ass were something.
You both went to a coffee shop and posters were everywheere about the movie, Julia grabbed her phone and called her boyfriend while you were left looking at the menu even though you knew wht you were going to order, the menu never changed, it had been the same since you were twelve.
A guy looked at you and you smiled back, but in a few seconds you looked at him again, and again and again and you tried to hold it instead you kicked Julia on hher ankle and she screamed.
"OUCH!!"
"Shhh!" you orderedd "Keep it down"
"I'll keep it down the moment you stop kicking me!"
"Calmly look at your left! It's Captain America!!!!!!" she could barely hear you so she kept looking everywhere making you feel so uncomfortable when Chris looked at you two again. He was wearing a hat and a jacket to not be so easily recognized but you discovered him anyway.
"No way, that cannot be..." but your friend knew. She knew it was him and she bit her lip."You have to go there!"
"No way!! I can't, I'll look stupid" you blushed and looked at the table.
The waiter came to take your orders and Julia quickly rushed on saying both of your orders so the waiter would go away.
"Y/N listen to me, you already look stupid by avoiding looking to a guy ho has nicely smiled at you at least twice. Soooo it's your guy! Go there... If it goes bad at least you'll have a selfie to prove everyone you met him"
You roolled your eyes and pressed your lips together, should you go there? Was it a good option? What would you say?
"Go! Ask for an autograph and then we can sell it and be totally rich!" she mocked you and you took a deep breath.
This was the opportunity of a lifetime. Even if you could have a picture with him tomorrow, it wouldn't be the same. Hundreds of fans, girls fangirling over the guys...
Okay, this was your shot.... This was your moment. You were going to meet your Captain, your hero. And when you got up and kept walking towards him you stumbled on something and regained balance almost hitting the floor and everyone saw it. He saw it and Julia was trying to not get ice tea out of her nostrils.
Chris got up really fast trying to help you and grabbed your shoulder "Are you alright?" he asked looking at you while having a smile forming in the corner of his mouth.
"I'm... I'm alright thanks.." you trembled on your own words and smiled "I was just going to ask you to take a selfie"
He chuckled "Of course!" he quickly replied "I'm Chris Evans by the way... But you already kow that" he hesitated and laughed.
"It's no biggie, I'm Y/N!" jeez why were you so nervous? Who the hell still used the words no biggie, you apparently.
"Nice to meet you!" he added while you ere both sitting on his booth "and nice shirt" he commented and you looked down. That's why he was looking at you, you were wearing a shirt with a drawing of Thor on it.
"Oh... Yeah, It's Thor. My friend gave it to me last Christmas" you shrugged and started looking for your phone "I just need to grab my phone I left it there" you pointed at your table where Julia was already eating her meal.
"No biggie, Mine's right here!" he picked it up and opened the camera.
So were you just having a dream or did you really just took a selfie with Chris Evans and his gorgeous smile?
He sent you the photos to your instagram. You and Julia were looking at them after he had left the diner "To a Thor's fan :)" he had wrote that on one of the messages and you were simply amazed by all that.
"So you didn't told him he was your favourite?" Julia rushed on saying and kept lookin to your phone like he would text something more.
"Of course not, 'm wearing a Thor's shirt and I'm also using "no biggie" as an expression... I mean..." Your best friend laughed and then looked at the window.
"You're being and idiot, the guy totally smiled at you and he was flirting"
3 months later
You worked at a catering service, you loved cooking and this was the closest you could get on getting people to know your dishes... You mostly were serving the entrees, but once in a while the main chef asked you to cook one of your specials... This one you got to make your special shrimp soup. This event was for some fancy couple you lived on the rich part of the town. You were about to get a new tray of food when you heard your name being called.
Looking up you recognized the smile "Chris?! I mean, Mr. Evans" you almost dropped the tray but he help you while laughing.
"Chris is fine" he said and you felt your cheeks going pink.
"I can't, must be totally professional" you gave him a shy smile.
"You never replied me" he said but then looking embarassed "I mean... You didn't thanked... For the photos".
"Oh" you kept looking at him for a full minute "Oh yeah you know... I mean... What would I say?" you asked biting your lip trying to look very calm
"I don't know, maybe a thank you or something" he gave you a concerned look.
"Yeah I know I should.... But this way I got to be the girl who never replied to Chris Evan" you winked at him and made a quick run to grab the tray of food you were already supposed to be serving.
3 months and a fewer hours later
You were leaving the Aniston's residence when you heard it again "Y/N!". You turned around to see Chris in a tux but with his shrit slighty unbottuned Delicious! You thought to yourself and smiled "So... Can I buy you a drink now?" he asked.
"Yeah sure, why not?" you instantly replied and shrugged your arms.
"Dammit, had a whole speech prepared in case you had said no" he laughed and mocked you "So let me be a gentleman, a smile crossed his lips and he opened the car door for you.
You went to a bar that wasn't that much crowded and the music was nice, some blues, a bit jazz, a bit 80's... Leaving you wondering what could be up next.
Chris and you sat on a booth and ordered a beer and a cosmopolitan.
"Usally the beer kind of girl, but since you're paying it and I am 'oh so exhausted', I need this!" you shyly smiled and he was looking directly at you.
"You have the nicest smile I have ever seen" he added coming out of nowhere to your conversation and you felt yourself blushing... A lot!
"Woah there Evans, daddy did not raise a fool! Men always say that kind of stuff when they want to pick up women"
"You know I could pick almost anyone I wanted" he winked and smirked at you.
"Nice way to get into someone panties" you laughed when your drinks arrived.
5 cosmopolitans and 7 beers later he did got into your panties.
7 months later
You woke up and Chris was still sleeping, one arm around your waist and one leg between yours. You turned around looking at him and started to kiss his jawline, followed by his neck and then his chest. When you looked at him, he had a smile, eyes still closed but suddenly "I love you Y/N" he spoke silently but you both felt a bit scared from the moment. He immediatly opened his eyes and kept an uncomfortable look, so did you, while sitting on this lap.
"You love me?" you babbled almost not sure if he understood you.
He ran a hand to his hair and pressed his lips "You know what? I do, I do love you and I was eager to say this to you at least for a month!"
"You have been loving me for a whole mont?" you asked still amazed and blinking so fast.
He grabbed your hands and kissed them both "I'm so sorry if that was too soon" he started to kiss your elbow when you got the courage to speak again.
"I think I love you too Chris..." your breath was wavy, you were feeling yourself getting turned on and the man was not stopping "For a few days, you have been the one I want to wake up next to"
He kissed your lips and after that was all bliss.
2 years and one month later
You were blindfolded, it was your birthday and you have been married to Chris for a year now. It had been the best year of your life so far. You got to meet Chris Hemsworth and took a bunch of pictures with him, while Evans got a bit cute jealous. Hemsworth was not going for much less while grabbing you and kissing your cheek.
"Where are we going?" you asked for the millionth time.
"Just wait and see." it was 3pm on the afternoon so you had no idea where he took you.
The car stopped and Chris helped you get out of the car.
You entered some place and a few minutes later he took you the blind fold off.
"Where are we?" you asked. It seemed a restaurant but it was closed... Well for the looks of it, it had been closed for a while.
"Your gift" he said while grabbing your hand "You always wanted your own place right? To be a chef and all that..." the tears reached your eyes.
"I did love, but.. IT's too much Chris, it's lovely, but it's too much.. I can't" a huge smile reached your lips.
"Think of it as a partnership, you couldn't invest in it, I could... So... we'll split the earnings"
You nodded in afirmation because you couldn't just talk... He was so perfect that you still didn't believe that guy could ever fell for you, but he did. He fucking did.
You laughed and kissed him, trying not to laugh, you were so happy, you were so in love.
"I fucking love you Captain America, you saved my world" he laughed and kissed your cheek.
"Watch your mouth young lady".
Present
You were sitting in the toilet, looking at the pregnacy test Positive you thought... You had agreed to try and have a baby, you just weren't expecting to happen so soon... Divided between getting ready for dinner and telling Chris, your mind wondered... Happywas how you felt, but either way you were pretty nervous, were you going to be a good mom? Will the baby like you?
Standing up and looking yourself in the mirror, your tummy still looked the same... You should hae known better when your period was late the first week.. Sometimes it happened but not three weeks, never three weeks.
An hour later Chris arrived home, he really had to get some shooting done today for a movie and you spent the whole morning together, it didn't matter really, you loved him, he loved you... Was a special day, but it was his work and you also had to check the restaurant to be sure the staff didn't need anything.
"You look... Astonishing!" you said looking at him in some new suit and drooling all over... How could you been married for three years and the man still made your hormones feel like you were a fifteen year old teen.
"You don't look that bad yourself Mrs. Evans" he laughed and grabbed your waist, pulling you closer to him and kissing you so very deeply. "I knew that red dress would be the death of me" you both laughed and he was looking into your eyes "What's happening, what's wrong? Look I'm sorry I had to..."
You pressed a finger to his lips "Shhh silly, it's not that. I'm so happy we're together. I can't believe I never get bored of you. Sometimes I need my little space and privacy but at the end of the day I love the feeling of you holding me" he kissed your forehead.
"Ready to let me rock your world?" he asked grabbing the car keys and pening the door.
"Couldn't think of it any other way" you said while grabbing your purse.
He had taken you to a pretty fancy reastaurant near the river and was a couples only restaurant, no kids, no families, just couples... In love.
After ordering you were looking toall the people standing there, you weren't even sure but on a table you thought you had seen George Clooney.
"So... You like it?" he gazed at you and you smiled.
"Our's is better buuuut this oone is fine" you grabbed his hand "I love it Chris, it's perfect" he caressed your hand with his tumb "But I do have one thing I gotta tell you and I have 0 idea how you might respond to it"
"What's happening?" he was concerned looking at you thinking what could have he done wrong. You quickly grabbed your purse, hands trembling a bit and you handed him your pregnancy test on a napkin "What's this...?" he asked while unfloding it "It's this..." words ran out of his mouth and you nodded.
"Yes, yes it is... Found out today because I was running a few days late... Okay weeks and I wasn't sure"
He quickly left himself up and kneeled next to you, touching your belly "Baby, it's too soon to feel the little bean we made" you laughed, some people were looking but he didn't care, he was just so happy "I know we have been trying, I never thought this would happen so fast" you added.
"I don't care love, I already love this baby more than anything"
You had just finished your dessert when the band made an annoucement "This one is for Mrs. Evans, your husband wants to tell the world you are the only thing that matters to him, and if he ever forgets to tell you that, you are more than allowed to make him sleep of the couch" the whole restaurant laughed and Can't Help Falling in Love of Elvis Presley started to play.
"You know...." his voice was no more than a whisper "Now there are two things that matter to me more than anything. You and that precious baby that hasn't even born yet and has to parents that love it more than theirs lifes" you kissed him and got up.
"We have to slow dance this" you murmured "I don't care how ridiculous we might look"
He got up and pull in in for a slow dance "You know, there's no way you could be more ridiculous than the day I met you. Believe me, I thank Julia everyday for that,was no biggie" he kissed you and deep in your soul you wish it had never ended.

A split
Lazarus read the note again, his mom is working again so he had to make dinner alone. She probably wouldn't be back until he was asleep even then she would be at her second job before he woke up for school. She worked too hard for this shithole of a place.
His father well he never met him. His mother was raped and that's how he came to be. His mother was an amazing women she gave up everything for him because she was pregnant out of wedlock. She would tell him so many amazing stories of her old family and how she missed them, but she can't go back because of him.
This hurt him but his mom never blamed him nor harmed him. He just felt the weight of that burden even if nobody told him he should. He removed his eyepatch showing off a black eye where the white should be and a yellow snake eye glowing against the black. Mom says he is a half ghoul which she says was impossible so she calls him a miracle. She even help trains him to control the inhuman abilities.
He finished making his mother's day card filled with a essay of why she is an amazing mother. Leaving her favorite chocolates on the card before heading off to bed.
.....
Lazarus stared at his bedroom ceiling with unease settling in his stomach. He was going to a special summer school for people like him as a precursor for college. His mother kept going on about how he will meet people like himself. He had no idea what that meant but she was really excited for him, and it will help pay for college. That made him excited because his mom didn't have to work so hard.
......
It wasn't even a bus it was a hearse that stopped in front of his house.
"Have a nice summer remember to write and don't forget to tell them what you need to eat I love you Lazarus." His mom said trying not to be seen by the driver. "Oh don't forget the extra eyepatch I got you and I packed you something special."
Lazarus could only smile as he nods and he hugs his mom. "I will never understand why you hide from this stuff. Love you mom."
Lazarus walks out and enters the hearse with a suitcase in hand and his note that he hands to the driver. He removes his eyepatch to show off what he is.
The driver looks at Lazarus in pure shock. "I thought they were fucking with me. I will tell the headmaster that you are for real." The driver says pointing to the seats that Lazarus sits in. The hearse driver mumbles "half ghoul wow I might ass well be in heaven I've seen everything."
Lazarus sits next to a princely fellow tieing his eyepatch back on as the man looks at him in shock.
"You're a half ghoul, your in my prophecy." The prince guy says.
A much more disheveled prince guy jumps to look over the seat. "Looks like you're getting hitched Roman didn't think it was possible."
"Oh shut it Remus you're suppose to marry a demon." The prince guy Roman says.
Lazarus stays quiet not knowing what to say.
"You know where we're going right?" Remus asks.
Lazarus looks up. "A summer school for monsters?"
"YES"
"NO Remus it's an educational training facility for beings other then pure humans. It's a training on how to blend in with humanity and how to be associated with hunters as not to be killed its require if you want to live with humans." Roman huffs.
"But I already live with humans this is paying for my college." Lazarus responds.
"Wait you already live among humans? What's it like? We've never left our kingdom Oh right I'm Roman that's Remus we're fae princes and we're going to live with humans for a long while until we marry or just decide to go home." Roman says smiling
Lazarus shrugs "I dunno hopefully this is better."
.........
Lazarus ended up rooming with Roman after the headmaster passed out realizing he was a half ghoul. He was thankful since Roman he already kind of knew him, his brother got paired with a guy with really thick glasses and two other people he wasn't paying attention to.
He was setting up his room and placed a picture of him and his mother on his desk as he finished laying on his black and gold checkered bed. He was growing uncomfortable with Roman gawking at him.
"You didn't use any magic. How did you do that?" Roman asks amazed.
Lazarus blinked obviously confused. "What? That's how I normally make my bed and put things away."
"Can you teach me? I've never done things the human way." Roman looks at Lazarus with eyes filled with curiosity.
Lazarus nodded and began to teach.
.......
It's been a month and he got his first letter from his mom.
"Hey sweetie how are you? Sorry for taking so long to respond things came up, you'll understand when you get home. Anyways this Roman guy you keep going on about sounds amazing you should bring him home for dinner. You made other friends too Logan Remus Patton and Virgil they all sound nice. Oh make sure Patton eats before a full moon it will help him, and sweetie I hope your eating right because we both know you can't go too long without eating han flesh. Anyways keep sending letters it sounds amazing, love mom."
Within the note is attached what looks like jerky which Lazarus begins to chew on.
"Oh got a gift from home, what did your parent send you?" Logan asks his speech finally sounding less robotic he was a demon not a robot.
"Jerky my mom makes it herself, she works as clean up in a hospital biohazard stuff aka human flesh." Lazarus mumbles chewing on his food.
"Huh neat isn't your mom human? Its surprising that she is ok with all this." Virgil says sipping on his blood milkshake.
"Well she has been doing this since I was born so I guess knew what happened after she was raped." Lazarus frowned at the shocked faces. "How did you think I was made anyways?"
"Love and compassion." Patton sniffs looking upset pulling Lazarus into a hug.
"You do know what ghouls are Patton. Soulless creatures that are neither demonic magic or angelic in nature they are in a category in of themselves which makes them dangerous and extremely hard to predict. They are violent and powerful a half ghoul is well was impossible usally ghouls just kill outright I guess yours got frisky with juicy things." Remus winks.
"You had me in the first half bro." Roman says leaning on Lazarus.
"I have to disagree that was quite informative you really do your research." Logan says impressed.
Lazarus shrugs. "Eh she is fine never blame me."
"I want to meet the wonderful woman who made you Lazarus." Roman says
Lazarus blushes. "Ah shut it Roman."
Roman sticks his tongue out.
.......
The end came way too fast for Lazarus's liking but Roman was coming home to meet his mother. Hopefully she wouldn't be upset. He stops for a second remembering a picture from his textbook on hunters. One of the reoccurring pictures reminded him of his mother. He shrugged it probably wasn't her.
Lazarus opened the door to his house Roman behind him. He stopped dead when he heard Roman shreik.
"THE HUNTER QUEEN DON'T KILL HIM." Roman pulls Lazarus behind him and prepares to take the blow but is only met with a soft tisk.
"Lazarus who's your friend? Oh is this the Roman you wrote to me about he is cute." Lazarus's mother says looking over the two.
Roman was shaking he heard horror stories of how countless faes fell to her blade. "Y-y-you know me?"
"Of course my son sent me a bunch of letters."
Then it clicked for Lazarus. "Oh that makes sense you used to be a hunter no wonder you're ok with everything."
"Oh correct I'm retired now unless someone here breaks my son's heart." She chuckles "oh I'll make your favorite for dinner do you have any requests Roman?"
"Not to die." Roman looks pale as a ghost.
"Do you like spicy chicken I'll make that." She smiles.
Roman can only nod now hiding behind Lazarus who goes up to his room.
.....
"Your mother is what horror stories are for my well every supernatural kind. The cursed immortal hunter who can kill everything she sets her mind to." Roman gasps
Lazarus hums. "That explains why she looks so young."
"Why are you not freaking out she can kill us."
"Roman you forget she is my biological mother, and retired." Lazarus looks to Roman who seems to be in deep thought
"THAT'S WHY SHE VANISHED IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. Also explains why you went to the summer school so you wouldn't be targeted."
Lazarus sighs. "Why did I fall in love with you?" He quickly slaps his hand over his mouth.
"You love me?"
Lazarus looks away nodding.
Roman looks at Lazarus with amazement. "Fuck fear I love you too."
They kiss.

What Is CPA Marketing | Guide On Starting
What Is CPA Marketing?
If you have looked for ways to make money online, you’ve probably heard the term “CPA” marketing. It is likely you’ve heard of CPA as some underground secret society where individuals are making fortunes online. This was the view that lots of have when they first begin examining exactly what CPA is, I know since I was one of them. I keep in mind questioning whether I was even qualified to be investigating them when and my really first interview.
The extremely first network I joined was MaxBounty and as they re-launched their updated website today, it got me considering my very first experiences going into the world of CPA. I decided that I ‘d get a short article out there to dispel the myths about CPA and give a brief introduction of exactly what it is.
CPA: Back to basics To begin out any sort of introduction I’ll initially share my definition of what CPA is. It might not be dictionary perfect but it’ll at least give you a design to deal with whilst thinking about the points throughout this article.
CPA (Cost Per Action/ Cost Per Acquisition): This is an advertising model where publishers are paid for an action that is taken as a direct outcome of their marketing. This differs from normal affiliate marketing because you may not necessarily need to make a sale to earn money within a CPA network. Payments are typically based on lead generation such as submitting a phone number or e-mail address to get some free product or information.
As you can picture the fact that you can get paid without even having to make a single sale can make CPA networks extremely appealing to the “make cash online” crowd and can possibly leave a lot of space to be made use of. When allowing individuals into their network, this means that CPA networks will normally be a little stricter than your normal affiliate network.
When individuals hear that CPA networks are more stringent they frequently get scared off. You shouldn’t let this take place to you since the fact is, if you are an honest upstanding affiliate or intend on becoming one, they actually do desire you involved. It’s actually the fraudsters and spammers of the world that they will try and weed out.
Methods of CPA Promo There are many varying methods to promote CPA campaigns, some of which include having your own website, some that don’t. The fact is that CPA marketing is really not all that different than other types of marketing. At it’s a lot of standard you simply need to spend some time to consider the product that you are promoting and where you will really discover a market that is interested in either discovering more or buying an item.
Having said all of that I will note a couple of examples of the more popular CPA promotional methods that you might discover:
Evaluation Site– Typically these types of websites will consist of 3 of more items within a specific niche i.e. Weight reduction Tablets or Lawn Fertilizer. They will then give you a short intro to each product, a review of the items performance and then normally a star score out of 5. Each of these products will usually be ranked in order and all will include links to either a customized landing page (presented below) or direct to the merchant. Sales/Landing Page– This site is generally more of a direct sales page and will likely present a lot more info on the product that it goes over. It will normally be a really difficult sale and work to get it’s reader either clicking through to the merchant there and then or at the very least signed up to the site owners sending by mail list. Some sales pages will really try to do both of these things, though it can frequently be beneficial to have one direct path through a landing page. A lot of alternatives can eventually suggest losing clicks. Splash Page– This is usally content light and will have flashy graphics with some punchy headlines and copy to encourage readers to input their information or click through to the merchant. Product information is typically minimal and these types of pages are often booked for items that need little explanation or are already popular i.e. competitors for an iPhone or Macbook. Quiz/ Fun Landing Page– Similar to the spash page but even simpler. There will typically be a concern with 2 or more responses that can then be clicked through big prideful buttons. In some cases some sort of game might be utilized in page of this style and it is certainly not the sort of page that somebody will be revisiting. It’s only purpose is to get that click-through and get it now. Having actually given you all these examples of sites that are utilized do not be misinterpreted into thinking that you can only market through your own website. Other possible techniques of promoting CPA Deals consist of posting to message boards, emailing a list of contacts, adding links to videos on YouTube and as soon as you’ve increased the capital perhaps even text-in adverts in publications or regional/national TV.
CPA: How difficult is it really? I understand you’re questioning how easy it is to enter all this. I indicate everything sounds excellent in theory however what’s this talk of nationwide TELEVISION? The reality is you needn’t go to these type of lengths to earn money in CPA. Whilst it’s great to understand that it’s possible to go to these lengths, there are ordinary people out there making thousands of dollars each day simply by running CPA promos online. I desire you to realise through this short article that it’s not some secret society and it’s definitely not some pie in the sky concept. It is still a service design and it will take work to make it. You ought to truly discover for yourself that with a little bit of work to obtain began you too can have success worldwide of Cost Per Action Marketing.
How To Get Accepted into CPA Networks Practically without fail this is one of the first concerns that pops into peoples minds when they hear that you have to apply to sign up with most CPA networks. Whilst there is not one simple method to get accepted each time, there are manner ins which you can increase your likelihood of being accepted. You ought to always bear in mind that if initially you do not prosper, try and try once again. As much as I want to claim that I’m best, I have actually been both accepted and rejected in the past. That’s the method that life works, nevertheless if you follow the steps in this short article you will be offering yourself the finest chance of success.
Obtain a Site– If you don’t already have a site, then now is the time to get your very first one.

Then can use with your existing domain, if you are a significant publisher or an experienced marketer and plan on running the CPA advertisements on your site. Nevertheless it’s most likely that you will have a number of smaller sites or none at all. In this case you will wish to produce a site that brands yourself as an online marketer and explains the locations that you work in. A good choice of ability sets to consist of are your experience with PPC, SEO, Email Marketing or any other methods that you might utilize. Selecting a name such as SOMETHINGmarketing.com will also give you a more expert feel. If you can’t or do not desire to create the site yourself then work with someone to do it for you within a CMS (Content Management System) such as WordPress so you can edit yourself at a later date. Use an e-mail on your domain– I got this information on excellent faith from a market expert a while back. If nothing else you will wish to use an e-mail that looks a little like this ‘[email protected]’. If you mainly utilize a GMail account or comparable you will want to do this and set up a redirect, even. Many CPA networks will immediately turn down any applicant who utilizes a complimentary e-mail address as they are so easy to set up and they have no verification you are really the individual who owns your website. Open & Honest in All of Your Communications– Whilst this might get you denied by some of the more selective CPA networks I really think that sincerity is very important especially in this area. If you say that you intend on driving 1000 keyword targeted leads from monthly from PPC and they telephone you up and it’s clear that you’ve never even used Pay Per Click it will start to raise flags about other locations.

You will have all the information that you have actually offered fresh in your head and even if they can’t talk to you on the area it proves that you are major about joining and they will likely identify your name when calling back. There you have it, equipped with the following information you ought to be well on your way to getting accepted into your very first couple of CPA networks. And on that note it’s worth stating that you ought to likely request a few of them. Even if you do get accepted into them all you will find that a number of them have different offers available that others don’t.

I decided that I ‘d get a short article out there to dispel the myths about CPA and give a brief introduction of exactly what it is. CPA: Back to basics To begin out any sort of introduction I’ll initially share my definition of what CPA is. It might not be dictionary perfect but it’ll at least give you a design to deal with whilst thinking about the points throughout this article. CPA (Cost Per Action/ Cost Per Acquisition): This is an advertising model where publishers are paid for an action that is taken as a direct outcome of their marketing. This differs from normal affiliate marketing because you may not necessarily need to make a sale to earn money within a CPA network. Payments are typically based on lead generation such as submitting a phone number or e-mail address to get some free product or information. As you can picture the fact that you can get paid without even having to make a single sale can make CPA networks extremely appealing to the “make cash online” crowd and can possibly leave a lot of space to be made use of. When allowing individuals into their network, this means that CPA networks will normally be a little stricter than your normal affiliate network. When individuals hear that CPA networks are more stringent they frequently get scared off. You shouldn’t let this take place to you since the fact is, if you are an honest upstanding affiliate or intend on becoming one, they actually do desire you involved. It’s actually the fraudsters and spammers of the world that they will try and weed out. Methods of CPA Promo There are many varying methods to promote CPA campaigns, some of which include having your own website, some that don’t. The fact is that CPA marketing is really not all that different than other types of marketing. At it’s a lot of standard you simply need to spend some time to consider the product that you are promoting and where you will really discover a market that is interested in either discovering more or buying an item. Having said all of that I will note a couple of examples of the more popular CPA promotional methods that you might discover: Evaluation Site– Typically these types of websites will consist of 3 of more items within a specific niche i.e. Weight reduction Tablets or Lawn Fertilizer. They will then give you a short intro to each product, a review of the items performance and then normally a star score out of 5. Each of these products will usually be ranked in order and all will include links to either a customized landing page (presented below) or direct to the merchant. Sales/Landing Page– This site is generally more of a direct sales page and will likely present a lot more info on the product that it goes over. It will normally be a really difficult sale and work to get it’s reader either clicking through to the merchant there and then or at the very least signed up to the site owners sending by mail list. Some sales pages will really try to do both of these things, though it can frequently be beneficial to have one direct path through a landing page. A lot of alternatives can eventually suggest losing clicks. Splash Page– This is usally content light and will have flashy graphics with some punchy headlines and copy to encourage readers to input their information or click through to the merchant. Product information is typically minimal and these types of pages are often booked for items that need little explanation or are already popular i.e. competitors for an iPhone or Macbook. Quiz/ Fun Landing Page– Similar to the spash page but even simpler. There will typically be a concern with 2 or more responses that can then be clicked through big prideful buttons. In some cases some sort of game might be utilized in page of this style and it is certainly not the sort of page that somebody will be revisiting. It’s only purpose is to get that click-through and get it now. Having actually given you all these examples of sites that are utilized do not be misinterpreted into thinking that you can only market through your own website. Other possible techniques of promoting CPA Deals consist of posting to message boards, emailing a list of contacts, adding links to videos on YouTube and as soon as you’ve increased the capital perhaps even text-in adverts in publications or regional/national TV. CPA: How difficult is it really? I understand you’re questioning how easy it is to enter all this. I indicate everything sounds excellent in theory however what’s this talk of nationwide TELEVISION?
