Jake should have stopped working after breaking his leg, but he continues to push himself

Ace shouldn't have been there, but he was and he almost died to the person that is his son

Jasper and Jack hold hands when they're scared, they've been doing it ever since they met

Andrew should never listen to Fiscus, it always leads to pain

Chimeul sees things, and it helps with cases

David really should see his mom more, but he's scared to get close

Jake over pushes himself, and it's very easy to see

Valentino shouldn't have taken Vito's words to heart, but he did and he withdrew from the family

Reg kneels for the Dragon Born, as the Dragon Born should bow to no one

Jake protected Barney with his life, and he would do it again in a heart beat

Sheffield United seal their fourth straight win after beating West Bromwich Albion 2-0

Sheffield United welcomed Steve Bruce’s West Bromwich Albion to Bramall Lane for a late kick-off in the Championship yesterday.

Sheffield United have won three of their last five games, West Brom on the other hand have dropped a total of 11 points in their five last games.

Manager Paul Heckingbottom made four changes to his team, starting Baldock, McGoldrick, Robinson and Hourihane and dropping Fleck, Berge and Norrington-Davies to the bench. Davies missed out.

In his first match as manager, Steve Bruce also made five changes to his side after their 0-2 defeat against Preston. 

Prior to kick-off, former Sheffield United Mark Duffy, known as the “Bounce Slayer”, was brought out on the pitch in front of 26,541 supporters and received a great reception from the home fans, whilst a clip of his goal in the derby at Hillsborough was shown on the big screen.

It was West Brom who made the stronger start but against the run of play Sheffield United captain and number 10, Billy Sharp, took the lead 22 minutes in, after a lovely bit of build-up play involving McGoldrick and Baldock.

United and Sharp thought they had doubled their lead, after a brilliant pass from central midfielder Conor Hourihane, but the celebration was cut short by an offside decision.

The nightmare continued for West Brom when their central midfielder Jake Livermore was shown a straight red after a scissor tackle on Hourihane five minutes before half-time.

West Brom’s goalkeeper, Johnstone, made two great saves in the first minutes of the second half, keeping West Brom in the game and denying the Blades a second goal to kill the game.

David McGoldrick went down injured in the 67th minute and had to come off shortly after, replaced by Oliver MacBurnie.

Manager Heckingbottom said in the post-match press conference that the striker had: “Done something to his thigh” and that they don’t know the extent of the injury but that it: “looks serious given how he pulled up”.

Billy Sharp doubled United´s lead in the 81st minute with a curled effort into Johnstone´s corner.

After the second goal West Brom created few chances and United were awarded their fourth straight win which puts them right in the play-off mix in 10th place moving above West Brom, with games in hand.

Sheffield United: Foderingham, Baldock, Basham, Sharp (Berge 90”), Egan, Norwood, McGoldrick (McBurnie 68”), Robinson, Bogle, Hourihane, Ndiaye (Gibbs-White 68”)

Unused: Davies, Fleck, Goode, Norrington-Davies

West Brom: Johnstone, Furlong (O´Shean 86”), Townsend, Ajayi, Livermore, Diangana (Mulumby 45”), Carroll, Clarke, Grant, Reach, Mowatt (Robinson 78”)

Unused: Button, Kipre, Tulloch, Gardner-Hickman

[subtleshenanigans]

I guess I’m just gonna make a list of my original work stuff???

I’m mostly posting them to AO3 because I know I’ll keep rights over my stuff, and so that people can enjoy them for free. Writing is personal to me, and I want to share it!

The Tale Of Dark Forest

This series is in a made up world called Arath; it’s full of anthropomorphic animals (all of which are wild cats, wild dogs, or hybrids) and is sort of medieval-esque; there’s also heavy emphasis on “Legend Figures”, which are historical figures known in certain regions. They don’t have modern tech, weapons are carried by everyone (it’s more about the skill and being able to defend oneself), etc. It mostly focuses on the town (once a kingdom long ago, a budding kingdom many years after the first book) Dark Forest, which is under tyrany at this period of time. Most of the information is from a smaller world-view as Dark Forest is kinda isolated, but is expanded in the sequel as the protagonist (the grandson of two of the protagonists from the first book) ends up leaving home. The first story is completed; the sequel is in the works and for now called Rius, after the protagonist.

Confused Chicken and Ashen Feathers

This story is about a few hundred-year-old (but stuck at fifteen) kid named Jake, and a girl named Zero. Jake somehow became an avian shapeshifter - he can shapeshift into any bird that has existed - but his default is a chicken (so when startled/scared/can’t think, he turns into a chicken.) Zero, which is a nickname, doesn’t know she’s a shapeshifter known as a Darkbird until the day she dies and comes back to life (she’s basically a Phoenix but dark and ashy, which fire inside; she basically heals herself from the brink of death and deadly wounds. There’s a set amount she can heal.) They end up getting chased by the guy who killed her and are on the run. It’s a one-shot series currently, mostly hurt/comfort(?) Zero and Jake are platonic.

To Wander

This one is about a person (a persona of me) named The Wanderer, also known as Ander. It’s more expiremental but it’s also a one-shot series about them wandering around and encountering different things. They currently have a companion animal simply known as the fox cub. (Kinda playing around with world-building on this one.)

The Arath

This one will probably never be completely done, but it’s about this girl who gets cut on a fossil (she has an older friend who works on a dig site????) and gains the ability to seperate into four aspects: A’eth the cat (who is her anger and justice and fiery feelings concentrated; represents fire, has a jaguar-like form and the human form is warmer colors), Araaknasan the wolf (ice; cooler emotions like apathy, distance, absolute justice before mercy, etc. Animal form is bigger than a dire wolf and human form is cooler colors, has a sword), Antethnesan the bird (wind; warm, balanced emotions like mercy, kindness, wisdom. Bird form is sorta Hawk-like, human form has wings that can curl forward and drape over shoulders like a cloak of sorts, is in soft/faded earth tones. Uses bows and arrows.), and Mescarnog (darkness element; hatred, similar feelings. Human form is faded, almost colorless, black hair and gray eyes, doesn’t speak much. Beast form is rarely used but it’s HUGE, fur kinda like a polar bear but with a shean almost like the Aurora. It’s definitely mammal looking.) I don’t have much besides that - eventually she gets an animal form with no human form (Green earth/plants; it’s a raptor of sorts) and vice versa (water; she’s in deeper blues, can grow algae in her throat that produces oxygen when she keeps her mouth and nose shut underwater so she can breath; this form is mute as well.) All the animal forms are big. Like, human sized maybe a bit bigger. Her name/title is The Arath.

Yaguara

This one is about a society(?) of jaguars but it’s not. Jaguars are still solitary - females’ territories still overlap males’ to a degree, but male territories never overlap - and don’t really have reason to interact beyond the odd hello if they pass by. But there is appointed leaders, Yaguars, who will meet up if there’s a crisis. One male goes off to find his mate (he only ever took one) who was to have had his Cubs soon, only to find her and two of the Cubs murdered. One lives and he names him Sun, for his golden eyes (also as a pun on Son). He grows up raised by his father (which is HIGHLY unusual but jags keep to themselves so he’s not ostracized.) He tells his son stories and legends, especially about the Yaguara, an ancestor from the distant past. His eyes burned with the sun and he alone fought and killed the vile one ((I’ll need to check my notes on some names obviously.)) One day, as he’s almost three years old (an adult for a Jaguar), his father is murdered and when he goes to the council it’s to find that this villain Jaguar is taking over things, perverting their laws and order, killing who he pleases. He runs away, and makes friends with a puma around his age, despite pumas and jaguars usually having disdain for one another. Of course Sun, the protagonist, will one day become the Yaguara.

Unnamed story

This one is complicated so I’ll talk about it another time.

[what-even-is-thiss]

I feel like it’s generally assumed that immortals either get trapped somewhere or move around a lot but what if an immortal just stays where they are and nobody there ever sees it as weird or tells the media about them because it’s a small town where everyone knows them. And when a new person comes into town it always takes a while for them to actually figure out there’s an immortal living in town because it’s just part of the normal everyday and by then the newbie is probably pretty fond of the immortal too so they just roll with it.

“Wait, what?

“I said miss Mary helped me with my history homework. She was here when this was still a colony. Look, she gave me a cookie!”

“Hey why does Zora always walk around with an umbrella?”

“Oh, she’s a vampire. Has she not asked you if you know how to use a syringe yet?”

“Jake, what the flip are you doing out at this hour?”

“Look man, if I don’t do this ritual every three months I’ll start aging again and I can’t die so that would suck. And yeah no time to explain. Just ask Jewel at the 7/11 she knows.”

“What’s up with Kaiden? Has zie always been this weird?”

“Well my great grandparents went to school with hir and according to them, yes. Zie has always been this weird. Really nice person though. Probably Lisa and Shean’s great grandparent but that’s old gossip.”

KONG: LA ISLA CALAVERA / KONG: SKULL ISLAND, de Jordan Vogt-Roberts

Con tan sólo un largometraje previo –la divertidísima, entrañable y modesta joya del cine indie estadounidense  "Kings of Summer" (2014)– Warner Bros. eligió a Jordan Vogt-Roberts para hacerse cargo de la dirección del reboot del personaje de King Kong en la megaproducción que continúa con la construcción del Monster Cinematic Universe tras haber iniciado con "Godzilla" (2014), de Gareth Edwards. "Kong: Skull Island" es la reinvención del personaje original que Merian C. Cooper y Ernest B Schoedsack presentaron en el clásico imprescindible de la cinematografía mundial: "King Kong" (1933); pero en esta ocasión es Bill Randa (John Goodman), un científico del proyecto Monarch, quien pretende explorar una isla recién descubierta en el Pacífico con el fin de probar la existencia de criaturas olvidadas por el tiempo en tan peculiares latitudes, por lo que consigue el apoyo del gobierno estadounidense para verse respaldado por algunas tropas ex combatientes en Vietnam –comandadas por el teniente Preston Packard (Samuel L. Jackson)–, y en compañía de un experimentado rastreador y una foto periodista de guerra. Todos ellos se internan en la remota y hasta entonces desconocida isla; sin embargo, la expedición rápidamente se ve interrumpida por el ataque de un descomunal simio que les deja divididos en dos grupos en la inexplorada isla plagada de prehistórica y mortal fauna.

Sustentándose en el guión firmado por Dan Gilroy –esa maravillosa mente detrás de la formidable "Primicia Mortal" con un desquiciante Jake Gyllenhaal–, Max Borenstein y Derek Connolly, y con la ayuda de una propuesta visual espectacular –cortesía de la preciosista y avasalladora fotografía de Larry Fong–, Vogt-Roberts entreteje una gran historia de aventuras en la mortal isla con un trasfondo y discurso ecologista y anti bélico incluido. Ubicada al final de la Guerra de Vietnam, "Kong: Skull Island" es un recurrente homenaje multirreferencial a "Apocalipsis Ahora" ("Apocalipse Now"; 1979) de Francis Ford Coppola, pero mezclado con lo mejor del espíritu del cine del serie B. La película, con la profundidad intelectual que caracteriza a los blockbusters gringos, además del discurso que muestra la obsesión del hombre por conquistar la naturaleza, se encarga de mostrar las distintas perspectivas sobre la guerra; desde cómo es percibida por los soldados rasos cuyo único deseo es regresar a casa tras morar en el infierno de una guerra sin sentido –"El enemigo no existe; te lo inventas", señala Cole (Shean Whigham), con la sabiduría de un hombre que ya ha peleado demasiado contra enemigos inventados por el gobierno–, hasta los oficiales mayores, para quienes la vida no tiene sentido sin la guerra y sólo se recobra cuando están frente a un nuevo enemigo.

Con un tono mucho más ligero que "Godzilla", la película también retrata al monstruoso protagonista como una deidad que busca equilibrar las fuerzas de la naturaleza; y aunque está construida sobre personajes que son la encarnación misma de los clichés y estereotipos del cine hollywoodense, exitosamente reinterpreta de manera desfachatada la historia original de inicios del siglo pasado, negándose a replicar la historia de amor entre el mastodóntico simio y la guapa protagonista; vaya, tanto quieren alejarse de la vertiente romántica de las versiones previas de la historia, que ni siquiera hay un interés romántico hacia ella por parte del protagonista masculino; en este aspecto cabe recalcar la alarmante carencia de carisma que muestran Tom Hiddleston y Brie Larson, quienes son opacados por los personajes secundarios en cada ocasión que comparten pantalla. Se trata de una propuesta de acción pura y dura, plagada de secuencias espectaculares que se notan pensadas al detalle y que son ejecutadas con gran pulso –la primera aparición de Kong; la secuencia donde Packard firma un pacto de su jurada enemistad con Kong con la mirada entre las llamas; o la titánica secuencia final–. Aunque roza peligrosamente el barroquismo visual y argumentalmente es simple, obvia y sin sentido en no pocas ocasiones, "Kong: Skull Island" –con todo y sus discursos diluidos entre tanta pirotecnia– nos regala dos horas de aventura y diversión con las mejores postales del cine de acción en los últimos años; un blockbuster bélico de kaijus digno de apreciarse en la gran pantalla.

AFL: Toby Greene faces a nervous wait as GWS Giants beat Western Bulldogs at Manuka Oval

As it stands, the rivalry between the Greater Western Sydney Giants and the Western Bulldogs is a short story – but it’s slowly turning into a novel.

One of the season’s most highly anticipated matches delivered a classic worthy of the billing to fuel the rivalry built after last year’s stunning preliminary final.

Giants pip Bulldogs in another thriller

An intense back and forth game between GWS and the Western Bulldogs saw the Giants sneak home by just two points.

But that’s not what the Giants care about – the premiership favourites aren’t where they want to be and are desperate to keep the pressure on Adelaide, Geelong and Richmond.

Both sides entered the contest with 4-1 records and six wins from their last seven matches in Canberra – but it was the Giants that prevailed 11.9 (75) to 9.19 (73) in front of 14,048 at Manuka Oval on Friday night.

Giants coach Leon Cameron said during the week the Bulldogs are still the benchmark – and his players responded accordingly to nearly everything he said. Nearly.

All eyes were on Giant Toby Greene in the last term after he was reported for striking Caleb Daniel, a penalty that handed the Bulldogs the lead late in the third, days after Cameron asked him to rein in his aggression.

True to form, he lifted with a crucial goal and took control of the Giants forward 50 to guide his side to victory to kick off a nervous week that could end in suspension.

But regardless of what the match review panel has to say, his performance was something to remember, as was that of Jeremy Cameron, who nailed four crucial goals to nudge the Giants ahead.

Leon Cameron isn’t worried opposition teams might try to wind up Greene – he thinks it would just spur him on.

“He loves big moments and he had some huge moments tonight,” Cameron said. 

“He plays on edge, he’s tough and hard. I don’t see that as an issue that opposition are going to wind up Toby Greene – in fact, I think it works the opposite.”

Even unassuming Giant Aidan Corr seems at home in the leafy surrounds of Manuka, keeping Bulldogs star Marcus Bontempelli under wraps for large chunks of the game having towelled up Port Adelaide’s Chad Wingard in Canberra a fortnight ago.

The Bulldogs suffered a huge blow before the opening bounce with ruckman Tom Campbell ruled out with an ankle complaint, leaving under-pressure ex-Giant Tom Boyd to fill the void against the firing Shane Mumford.

Mumford picked apart cross-town rivals the Swans in the Sydney derby and delivered a similar onslaught, recovering from an ankle injury to rack up another impressive set of numbers.

Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge had some early headaches to contend with as the Giants nabbed early majors to take a lead, and hunted in numbers to finish on top.

But it was the contentious deliberate out of bounds rule that left many scratching their heads, with nearly everything called deliberate regardless of the circumstances.

“Not confused tonight because it seemed like it just didn’t matter,” Beveridge said.

“It was just like last touch off the boot, I’m not sure that’s how they wanted it to go. Not sure who got the raw end of the stick there, we got a few against us and so did they.”

Cameron’s three goal haul in the second-term was nothing but a face-saver in the context of the term, the Giants otherwise outclassed thanks to a spurt of Bontempelli and Jake Stringer gold.

The Bulldogs though, were their own worst enemy, throwing away far too many scoring opportunities that ultimately cost them the game.

The Bulldogs were let off the hook against the Brisbane Lions last week after a shocking start – but the Giants aren’t an outfit that lets opposition get away with poor finishing for too long.

“Our players who are missing or are not capitalising on their opportunities will hopefully get better over time,” Beveridge said.

“There’s a shean of quality that you need. You don’t necessarily need brilliance but you do need a shean of quality in your forward line.

“It’s going to be difficult to win these clutch games when you’re a bit inefficient, we just missed too many gettable ones and then they got their tails up in the third quarter.”

The Bulldogs fielded a vastly different team to last year’s grand final winning side and were forced to finish without Tom LIberatore, who was concussed after landing awkwardly in a big Mumford tackle.

The preliminary final hasn’t been forgotten and after this Friday night epic, the rivalry is alive.
