JM leaving for London 23 May 23

cr./photos Black N White & more.

JM looking straight into her soul, lol.

I think that by now we've established the recognition, right?

And lookie here... who, dare I say, inflicted that scratch on your arm JM? Could it be by chance a lovely large dog that goes by a name that rhymes with Ham or Pam or Wham?

Poor baby, that one has got to hurt.

Safe travels JM.

i feel bad for everyone all at Once 🔥🔥

[ffjj5]

I always associate Lauv with Jikook for obvious reasons

And of course JK shadow dancing to Mean it by Lauv & Lany during his drunken live on 4th March when he was struggling with missing Jimin amongst other things.

And most importantly I love his music, I have done for years.

So today I treated myself to concert tickets for my birthday trip to London, it would be rude not to, at £35 for a standing ticket! Connective tissue disorder in legs be damned, I will stand and dance and sing. This condition will not stop me from doing what I love. 💪

I am very excited 😁

Oh and he is in Seoul on the 29th August so it will be interesting to see if either Jimin or JK go to see him

Practice never stops ndat, but really feel like I found a motivation to step a thing up and show up again and more on my time thanks to my king, Little Simz.

Something synchronous and then silly serendipitous came about and there was the glowing arterial thread that is the soundtracking and energy sharing and guiding and validating Simz has given us. Personally long time grateful for Simz in ways I can’t get into here.

All that added together, I (finally) made a Little Simz fanzine - one in the works for tiiimeee - on the occasion of her 30th birthday. A perfect deadline.

Let me find the details and put it up here.

BE VERY SPECIFIC WHEN YOU TALK ON WHO THE BEST IS, a Little Simz fanzine

100+ pages, full colour & B&W digital print

Spinal coil ringbound

Edition of 2 (1 for Simz, 1 for the archive)

[criminalisticonsultant]

Aren’t you a murder? Why are people simping over you?

exCUSE me! I also dance!

[ffjj5]

Very proud to be a UK ARMY. ✊

He could be here, he could not and that's exactly how it should be!

🐥💜

Yes!

Hi, Caroline from TT here to weigh in. I went to the DM page to watch her backpedal (yet again) after being caught with erroneous information. For those who are not aware, photos were uploaded to All Over Media on 10/16/24. They were uploaded by a paparazzi company by the name of JM-Pictures. This company has an IG, TT, YouTube and website. The website is down completely. No posts on any sm since 11/2023. These most recent photos were taken of Nicola in her neighborhood and at her home. It was a dark London Suburban street. Someone would have had to know she was out at that small pub she’s been going to for years to follow her home.

I simply went on the post to point this out. DM explained that she got the wrong facts from backgrid and called them to verify they gave her the wrong facts. However she can’t say they were for sure taken 10/16, only uploaded then. And she doesn’t appear to know much about the source.

Some Jakolas figured out who I am and began attacking me. I’d estimate 5 or 6 of them calling me everything from a cult leader to stalker, and blaming me for fans’ behavior following and filming Nic and Luke. I repeatedly took ownership of my choices including my choice to step away from TT when Nic asked for people to give her privacy. I can’t promise all of my decisions were perfect but I can say that I tried to correct mistakes I made.

Jakolas continue to be rabid to prove this relationship despite the following indisputable facts:

Nic and her camp have not confirmed this or any other relationship.

The date on these photos along with the source continue to be dubious and could predate the NYC trip. (only important in terms of knowing how recent it all was).

Nicola is consistently affectionate with friends (see her with nearly the exact same hand hold at the t swift concert with JVN’s hubby last June).

Am I saying it’s impossible they’re together? no. Did I ever say that? No. I still think it’s not the case based on the info at hand but that’s my opinion.

Regardless we’ve learned since papwalk 1.0 that DM is not always to be believed at face value and I continue to find it interesting that Nic is only papped with JD and not her other, arguably more famous, friends.

in the future I likely won’t engage but keep in mind I was in the comments stating actual facts (relationship not confirmed by her camp, photo agency inactive for a year) that I have receipts for… and that is what was triggering the Jakolas.

All ya had to say was "Jakolas" and I knew the situation would devolve from there.

Best of luck to you Caroline, hope you find a more forgiving space to interact in 💜🥃

[brian-in-finance]

The hate and ridicule of T is in full force again because he wasn't at the event C attended on Thursday with the explanation that she was alone due to her +1 being in CA. 🤦🤣

What are you talking about, Anon? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Where could you possibly see “hate and ridicule of T?” Almost everyone in Mordor appreciates him for the quiet support he lends his wife. And 📻🧌 Radio Mordor announced more than a year ago she/The Shire is here to encourage and support and honour C and S. The Shire talks about supporting them equally and wishing only the best for them. How would hating and ridiculing C’s husband rate as encouraging or supporting or honouring or wishing her the best? You must be mistaken.

I’m wondering if you proofread your message before sending it? If T, C’s plus-one, was in California on Wednesday, of course he wouldn’t be at JM’s Townhouse in London. Silly Anon! 😂

This was weird. JM had to stand and wait for the car door to open, but like for quite some time.

Not even a tiny smooch? :(

I didn't consent. Stay away. Not in front of my daughter. We're on a boat trip. Go away.

[not-goldy]

So she’s deranged right? She has an apartment in the same building as Jimin and RM, she’s apparently got the same sofa. Same rug. Same coffee table, same crockery, etc etc. she’s posted in RMs apartment too? So she’s either completely and utterly weird and buying the same stuff as Jimin or they are dating?

You never understand why these celebrities refuse to share certain details of themselves from their tattoos to their perfumes hairstyle clothes- fans will co opt everything including their identities.

Just because Oli London undergoes surgery to look like Jimin doesn't mean he is Jimin's twin brother or remotely related to him.

Didn't JK refuse to share personal products he uses with fans because he says fans would go and buy same?

Also while some of these home decor may be from brands- those brands sell to the public

I'm tired of people purchasing products that idols use and promote just to turn around to use it as evidence they are associated with those idols yall are creepy as hell

And yes she is deranged.

I keep saying that general lack of sensitivity to timing and inability to read the room will always give these freaks away

First you had Minjoo or whatever who decided to choose the worst moment in Jk's life to fuel and stirr drama which the company had specifically told her not to get involved with.

What this rubbish individual is doing is not only insensitive to JM being in MS but insensitive to whatever is going on with JMs company

Even I an outsider decided out here to lay off hybe till BTS returns just cos they may be the backup they need while in there in case anything goes south

At this point I feel and behave more like Jms girlfriend than his alleged gf SHE WISHES

Out of Sight - Part 3

General idea: Moriarty is your boss. After he helped you out of a precarious situation when you were still a minor, you started working for him. Now, he has a new job for you. Get close to the Holmes brothers to keep an eye on them for him. Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson, Mycroft Holmes/Reader  & Jim Moriarty/Reader Fandom: BBC Sherlock Word count: 1936

Masterlist

That evening you get home quite late, so you decide to text Jim a short update before immediately heading to bed. 

Everything’s going according to plan, Mr British government has already approached me. Both Holmes brothers are very much interested but do not suspect me in the slightest. -S

Wonderful. -JM

You slept for a couple of hours before waking up around five in the morning. Getting out quietly, you stretch your limbs before getting out your running gear. You put in your earbuds and turn on the music before heading out. The streets are quiet and there’s the faintest bit of rain falling from the sky. ‘Of course it’s raining.’ You whisper to yourself as you start your run. The route you’re running is about fifteen kilometres (just over 9 miles) through the streets and some nearby parks. Despite what some others may do, you have the intention of keeping up with your stamina and physical fitness. A morning run is the first step to that, and later this week you will be looking into places where you could possibly keep up with your fighting skills, preferably MMA. When you turn a corner in the park, you’re greeted by Sebastian’s face. He starts running with you as you continue. ‘Good morning to you.’ You slow your pace a bit so he can catch up. ‘What are you doing here Seb?’ Sebastian has, over the years, become a bit of a brotherly figure in your life. While you know it is not advantageous to care, you do care for him in a way. ‘Just checking whether you’ve settled down a bit. London’s a big city and while I know you’re used to it quite a bit, I just wanted to check.’ He smiles widely. ‘You’re taking quite a risk, mister.’ Turning serious, you stop in your tracks. ‘Does Jim know you’re here?’ He nods. ‘Of course, I wouldn’t do this if he didn’t think it were alright.’ This brings some relief. ‘Okay, good. I just wanted to check. We shouldn’t be taking too many risks.’ The two of you continue running together for a few kilometres before he tells you goodbye. ‘I’ll keep in touch, Jim gave me the number of your burner phone.’

When you get back to Baker Street, you hop into the shower before getting dressed for work. You just grab a granola bar, your briefcase, and leave to go to your work. The ride on the tube is quiet and you notice nothing out of the ordinary.  ‘Good morning Charlie.’ You’re greeted by Sally Donnovan. ‘Morning Sallie, had a good night yesterday?’ She’d been flirting with Anderson all day and they’d left work together. ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about.’ Turning away, you ignore her blushing bashfully at your comments and pour yourself a cup of coffee. ‘Sure thing.’ You whisper. ‘So how’s London treating you?’ She’s obviously trying to change the subject, and you decide to go with it to make things easier. ‘It’s been good, though I haven’t seen much of the city yet. I arrived this past Sunday and worked most of yesterday. Went on a run this morning though, and the parks around here seem to be very nice.’ You smile at her before sipping your coffee. Greg walks up and joins the conversation. ‘You went on a run? This morning?’ You see him glance at the clock. It’s just before eight o’clock. ‘I did.’ They both seem quite shocked. ‘What time did you wake up?’ Sally asked, her voice making her shock quite obvious. ‘Around five.’ If it had been possible, their eyes would’ve become the size of saucers. ‘That early? Charlie, are you mad?’ Greg’s voice has a tone you haven’t heard much before, was it concern? ‘I’m not? I just wanted to go on a run and due to work that was the most convenient time to do so.’ They glance at each other briefly before Sally speaks again. ‘I suppose you are correct about that. Didn’t expect you to be such a morning person.’ She tries to sound cheery, but it’s obviously fake. ‘You aren’t?’ You look poignantly at her over your mug. ‘No, I’m not. I’m more of a night owl myself.’ Her smile looks a bit sheepish. All the mindless chatter annoys you to no end, but you know it’s required to participate in order to blend in. Hopefully the Holmes brothers will make up for it, though you assume for that to be the case when Jim’s assigned you to it. When you get back to your desk, you quickly send him a text from your burner phone.

This better get interesting quickly, these people at SY are boring me out of my mind. -S

It takes a while, but he does reply.

Oh it will, don’t worry. Just be patient. -JM

The rest of the morning runs smoothly. There’s been a homicide which seems to be linked to another one which was committed just over a month earlier. It isn’t too complex, both seem to be linked to a singular drug cartel which is at war with another one. You happen to know a lot more about the ins and outs of this one, but cannot show your hand to the police just yet. So, you’re carefullie piecing together the evidence they already have, so they can come to the correct conclusion themselves.  Around lunchtime, you’re approached by Lestrade, asking you to join him, Donnovan, and Anderson for a short walk. So, while a bit reluctantly, you do decide to join them. Throughout the affair, you mostly listen, only engaging in conversation when it seems necessary. Most of it was unimportant nonsense, but you do hear something about Sherlock snooping around at a suicide case. You assume, however, that it probably isn’t a suicide if Sherlock’s involved himself. What is clear to you, though, is that Jim isn’t directly involved. It’s probably one of his many pawns which are spread across the city.

That night when you arrive at your flat you see the light is on and the door is open to 221B. You hear Sherlock constantly talking to John. Something about a painting in a bank and a symbol that they’re trying to find. Deciding that it’s a good time for “bonding” with them, you walk up the stairs and knock on the already opened door.‘Evening gentlemen,’ John turns to face you and you flash a shy smile, ‘how’s it going?’ His eyes look a bit desperate. Desperate to escape from Sherlock, even if it’s just momentarily. ‘Evening Charlie. Well, I suppose we’re doing fine. Sherlock got a new case today, so that’s always good.’ He doesn’t sound too convinced. You slowly start walking in and see the pictures of a painting that has been spray-painted over. It’s a symbol you’d seen used by smugglers while you were in Hong Kong and China. ‘So, what’s all this?’ Your voice is soft, but does grab the detective’s attention. ‘It’s an ancient Chinese number. Fifteen to be precise.’ He looks at you briefly before returning his gaze to one of the many books that are scattered around the flat. ‘And what exactly do you need all these books for?’ You pick up one of the ones that he had discarded on the table and open it. It wasn’t anything special, and you are certain that he’s probably looking in the wrong direction in terms of books. Sure a book should bring the answer, but this novel isn’t going to give him any information. ‘I am looking for information on what the people behind this are trying to convey to the person that finds it.’ A snort escapes you unintentionally. I got that, I’m not a goldfish. ‘Well, based on the two people that have died, it’s probably a message.’ He picks up a book from one of the plastic bins. ‘It probably just tells them that they’ll die soon?’ Making it a question makes you sound uncertain and gives Sherlock the opportunity to tell you what he knows. He likes to show off after all. ‘While that is indeed the case, there’s a lot more behind it-’

Sherlock basically shared all the details he knew about the case with you that evening. Based on what he’s told you, it’s probably some sort of conflict within one of the criminal organisations of Chinese origin that operate in London. Towards the end of the night, you excuse yourself and head outside for a moment, greeting Mrs Hudson on the way. ‘Evening.’ You smile at her. ‘Evening dearie, how’re you doing?’ You tell her that you’re well and ask her about her day. After about five minutes of conversation, you’re finally able to step outside. The air outside is cold but your coat keeps you warm enough. Slipping your hand into your coat pocket, you grab your cigarette case and lighter. This is the one vice you hold onto. In a way, it helps you relax, but you haven’t made it a habit. You take a single one out of the case and light it, taking a drag almost immediately. As you look at the cars that are passing by, you start to disassociate. A message on your phone gets you out of this trance-like state. 

I thought you’d quit smoking Spikey. -JM

You chuckle as you take another drag.

Let me have my vice. It isn’t a habit anyway. -S

As long as it doesn’t affect your mind, I really don’t care. It might even attract Sherlock’s attention. Ask him about the 400+ kinds of ashes that exist. -JM

I’ll consider it. -S

You put away your phone quickly before the door behind you opens. By the sound of it, it’s Sherlock. You turn your head slightly so you can see him from the corner of your eye. Before he can say anything, you hold up a single cigarette for him to grab. He considers for a moment, but doesn’t grab it. Good, I suppose. He’s being entertained by the case. He’ll probably get bored after this one ends. ‘Didn’t know you smoked.’ He comments, it’s obviously a lie. ‘You definitely knew. You’re Sherlock Holmes.’ He lets out a quiet laugh. ‘Alright, I did know, though the signs were barely there. You aren’t a regular smoker, are you?’ ‘You’re correct about that.’ You muse quietly. ‘You met Mycroft, haven’t you.’ Taking another drag, you nod. ‘I have. Quite dramatic isn’t he?’ The faintest chuckle escapes him, again. He’s starting to like you and your personality, that’s good. A lot easier than you’d expected. ‘He is. Did you take the bribe?’ Ah, so he knows about his brother’s inquiries. ‘I did.’ ‘Good.’ He sounds somewhat happy about your choice. ‘The money is only useful, and he’ll know 95 percent of it already anyway. I suppose those extra five percent help my brother with his nerves.’ You smirk. ‘Didn’t expect you to be so accepting of your brother constantly spying on you.’ ‘I’m not, I’m just used to it.’ After taking one last drag, you throw the remainder of the cigarette onto the pavement and put it out with your foot. ‘Is that so? Well, I suppose I can understand if it’s a sibling. He probably means well.’ He scoffs. ‘I hardly think that’s the case. Mycroft isn’t one to care, he just wants to make sure I’m not a nuisance to him or his work.’ You turn to fully face him. ‘I wouldn’t be so sure about that, Sherlock.’ Giving him a wink, you go back inside and to your flat.
