Ok, listen guys, I know that there's this one guy that appears in almost all the realistic imaginings of Xander Hawthorne (btw, sorry that I dropped off the face of the Earth), but has anyone of you ever considered this guy?
Tumblr media
Ladies, may I present to you, Jordan Fisher, otherwise perhaps more familiar to you as John Ambrose McClaren from the sequel in the To All The Boys I've Loved Before trilogy. Now, he's more grown up here, but he also starred in Liv and Maddie when he was a teen and I feel like other than the height being a potential issue, add a little more pudge to his face and some more curls, and voila: à la Xander Blackwood Hawthorne!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mean, just look at him! Isn't he cute? Isn't he gorgeous? The perfect dimples and look of mischief that EXACTLY fits our one and only beloved Xander.

A little bit different of a fancast for today, but I haven't been able to get the idea of an animated Hunger Games series out of my head for months now. So I propose not a traditional acting cast of the Hunger Games characters, but a voice cast. I have a bit of a bias for musical theater actors, but can I help it that they are literally some of the most talented people out there?
Starting off with Katniss. Obviously, we need a singer! Even if she only canonically sings a handful of times, even speaking she should have the vocal control of a singer. For that reason, I'm picking Ariana Debose. She's had voice acting experience with Disney in their upcoming film Wish and won and Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in West Side Story so she's clearly very talented and has experience in voice acting. Here's a clip from WSS just to show her acting chops:
youtube
I would be just as happy with Eva Noblezada as Katniss. She's a Tony-nominated actress who did a movie starring as a country singer (Yellow Rose), so she's shown she can do a Southern accent should this hypothetical series really go for the Appalachian aspect to D12 (which they should). And she's Filipino-Mexican American. Really either of these women would be amazing as a voice actress for Katniss.
Now Peeta. We need someone charming and genuine. And one of people who came to mind and really stuck there is Jordan Fisher, who's starred in Dear Evan Hansen on Broadway in the title role and is currently in Sweeney Todd, but would likely be most recognized by his role in To All The Boys: P.S. I Love You as John Ambrose. He also has some experience voice acting with various projects. Here's some clips of him as John Ambrose:
youtube
So just imagine these voices coming out of animated characters drawn to look like Katniss and Peeta, in a series with time to tell the story properly, and tell me that wouldn't be the absolute most amazing thing ever.

 And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram; and Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon; and Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; and Jesse begat David the king. (Matthew 1:3-6)
It should be noted, that none of the holy women are taken into the Savior's genealogy, but rather such as Scripture has condemned, that He who came for sinners being born of sinners might so put away the sins of all; thus Ruth the Moabitess follows among the rest.
Jerome
But Luke has avoided the mention of these, that he might set forth the series of the priestly race immaculate. But the plan of St. Matthew did not exclude the righteousness of natural reason; for when he wrote in his Gospel, that He who should take on Him the sins of all, was born in the flesh, was subject to wrongs and pain, he did not think it any detraction from His holiness that He did not refuse the further humiliation of a sinful parentage. Nor, again, would it shame the Church to be gathered from among sinners, when the Lord Himself was born of sinners; and, lastly, that the benefits of redemption might have their beginning with His own forefathers: and that none might imagine that a stain in their blood was any hindrance to virtue, nor again any pride themselves insolently on nobility of birth.
Augustine
Besides this, it shews that all are equally liable to sin; for here is Thamar accusing Judah of incest, and David begat Solomon with a woman with whom he had committed adultery. But if the Law was not fulfilled by these great ones, neither could it be by their less great posterity, and so all have sinned, and the presence of Christ is become necessary.
John Chrysostom
But how did Ruth who was an alien marry a man that was a Jew? and wherefore in Christ’s genealogy did His Evangelist so much as mention a union, which in the eye of the law was bastard? Thus the Savior's birth of a parentage not admitted by the law appears to us monstrous, until we attend to that declaration of the Apostle, The Law was not given for the righteous, but for the unrighteous. (1 Tim. 1:9.) For this woman who was an alien, a Moabitess, a nation with whom the Mosaic Law forbad all intermarriage, and shut them totally out of the Church, how did she enter into the Church, unless that she were holy and unstained in her life above the Law? Therefore she was exempt from this restriction of the Law, and deserved to be numbered in the Lord’s lineage, chosen from the kindred of her mind, not of her body. To us she is a great example, for that in her was prefigured the entrance into the Lord’s Church of all of us who are gathered out of the Gentiles.
Ambrose

You read a lot non-fiction what I call "colon books" ("Title: Longer Subtitle"). What are some of your favourite or latest fiction books that you've read?
Even if it’s not your ideal genre, there has to be a more pleasant way of talking about non-fiction titles than calling them “colon books”, right? That sounds like a pretty gross section of the library.
I must admit that I’ve never been a big reader of fiction. I read a lot of books, but fiction has always been a pretty small percentage of them. I don’t have anything against fiction books and, quite frankly, I wish I had more of an interest in them because I believe reading from a broader, more diverse group of genres opens up your mind to a wider array of viewpoints. But I just can’t lose myself in fiction as easily as I do in non-fiction — and I know that not only sounds ridiculous but kind of proves how important it probably is for me to actually read more fiction in order to expand my horizons and build a healthier imagination.
When I do read fiction, it usually is because I like the work of specific authors and don’t want to miss whatever they write. One odd thing is that while I very rarely (almost never, in fact) re-read non-fiction books, when it comes to fiction, I usually stick with the same small collection of favorite authors and often re-read their work.
And if I’m not reading non-fiction, there’s a pretty good chance that I’m reading poetry instead of a novel or some sort of traditional prose fiction. Like I said, it’s probably more of a failure of imagination than anything, but while I respect and appreciate great literature and creative fiction, I just prefer reading stuff that feels more realistic. I couldn’t even guess what the last science fiction book I read was. I have several thousand books in my personal library, but I’m willing to bet that I have less than a half-dozen sci-fi books. My taste in movies or TV shows is pretty similar; I rarely watch sci-fi or fantasy. Even as a kid I was never able to get into them.
So what type of fiction books do I read whenever I actually do pick up something other than non-fiction?
I’ve been pretty vocal over the years about my appreciation/admiration/awe for the work of Sam Shepard. Everything he wrote — from his plays to his prose to poetry to his short story collections — amazes me as a reader and makes me insanely jealous as a writer. I have every book he ever published and just about every play or collection of plays, and I re-read him more than anybody else.
I’m also a huge fan of John Steinbeck and Joan Didion. I think I have just about everything that Steinbeck ever published and I have phases when I fall into a Steinbeck rabbit hole and just tunnel through my Library of America collection of his work, which are treasures. I didn’t get into Joan Didion’s writing until later, so I’m still reading some of her stuff for the first time. I think the fact that I’m from Northern California like Steinbeck (from Salinas) and Didion (who was from Sacramento originally, just like me) helps me put myself in their work in a more intimate way than when I’m trying to read most other writers of fiction. I need that kind of connection to lock on to fiction in the way that I’m able to do with non-fiction. Plus, Steinbeck and Didion also wrote some great non-fiction, so I can get the best of both worlds. Two other authors that I’ve read and re-read many times are Cuba’s heroic founding father, freedom fighter, and martyred revolutionary José Martí and the ingenious, acerbic Ambrose Bierce whose satirical The Devil's Dictionary (BOOK | KINDLE) has miraculously maintained its edginess and razor-sharp humor despite being originally written over 125 years ago.
There’s really not a lot of contemporary fiction that I read. I’m sure I’d find some great stuff if I gave it the chance, but there’s only so many hours in the day that I have to read, so I do tend to give it over to non-fiction, as you might notice when I answer the questions about the books I’ve been recently reading! So, if I am reading fiction, it’s almost always older stuff that I’m finally getting around to reading. During the pandemic, I got lost in the work of Jorge Luis Borges, who I had not spent much time with previously, but I pored through his fiction and poetry. Two more books that I also frequently re-read or pull of the shelves to read pieces of are Baltasar Garcián’s The Art of Worldly Wisdom (BOOK | KINDLE), which was first published in 1647 but still feels fresh 375 years later, and Fernando Pessoa’s brilliant, posthumously published The Book of Disquiet (BOOK | AUDIO | KINDLE).
As for the poets you’ll find on my shelves, it’s probably who you’d expect: Pablo Neruda, Langston Hughes, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Hafiz, Matthew Arnold, William Blake, and Federico García Lorca. Like I mentioned earlier, Sam Shepard and José Martí are two of my favorites for their prose and poetry. I’d especially recommend Shepard’s 1973 book Hawk Moon: Short Stories, Poems, Monologues and Motel Chronicles (BOOK | KINDLE), published in 1982 by the legendary Lawrence Ferlinghetti at San Francisco’s iconic City Lights Books. José Martí’s greatest work is Versos Sencillos (BOOK | KINDLE), originally published in Spanish 1891 but I recommend the excellent dual-language edition translated by Anne Fountain and published by McFarland & Company in 2005. One other poetry book that is always pretty close to my desk is Yevgeny Yevtushenko’s wonderful The Collected Poems, 1952-1990.
And last but not least — but certainly the least surprising — is William Shakespeare. I love Shakespeare. I don’t think that this is a controversial opinion, but Shakespeare is fucking amazing. You guys can share that secret with other people if you feel the need to do so. If someone put a gun to my head and told me I had to pick only three books to read for the rest of my life, the first thing I would do would be to choose Shakespeare’s Complete Works. Actually…the first thing I would do would be to ask why that person felt the need to put a gun to my head just to choose three books to read. That seems unnecessarily aggressive and wildly inappropriate for the task at hand. But after chastising them for their needlessly dangerous tactics, I would choose Shakespeare’s Complete Works — specifically the latest Norton edition with Stephen Greenblatt as general editor (BOOK | DIGITAL).

Thoughts on the art of food Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast. Oscar Wilde We ought to know about our culinary past. Food and identity is terribly important ...

Tom Jaine What is food to one, is to others bitter poison. Lucretius Food is much better off the hand than the fork. Mario Batali You can't just eat good food. You've got to talk about it too. And you've got to talk about it to somebody who understands that kind of food. Kurt Vonnegut We need a quarter of the food we eat to live, the rest is used to fatten industrialists, advertisers, doctors and undertakers. (obviously for those dying of hunger the situation changes.) Carl William Brown Food - what is chosen from the possibilities available, how it is presented, how it is eaten, with whom and when, and how much time is allotted to cooking and eating it - is one of the means by which a society creates itself and acts out its aims and fantasies. Margaret Visser There is such a thing as food and such a thing as poison. But the damage done by those who pass off poison as food is far less than that done by those who generation after generation convince people that food is poison. Paul Goodman A gourmet is just a glutton with brains. Phillip H. Haberman Jr. As a child my family's menu consisted of two choices: take it, or leave it. Buddy Hackett A store of grain, Oh king is the best of treasures. A gem put in your mouth will not support life. Hitopadesa First rule of Economics 101: our desires are insatiable. Second rule: we can stomach only three Big Macs at a time. Doug Horton Most of us are either too thin to enjoy eating, or too fat to enjoy walking. Edgar Watson Howe A lot of Thanksgiving days have been ruined by not carving the turkey in the kitchen. Kin Hubbard A man seldom thinks with more earnestness of anything than he does of his dinner. Samuel Johnson He who does not mind his belly, will hardly mind anything else. Samuel Johnson He who cannot eat horsemeat need not do so. Let him eat pork. But he who cannot eat pork, let him eat horsemeat. It's simply a question of taste. Nikita S. Khrushchev Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we may diet. Harry Kurnitz I judge a restaurant by the bread and by the coffee. Burt Lancaster The most dangerous food to eat is a wedding cake. Author Unknown
Tumblr media
Quotes on food and wine Food is our common ground, a universal experience. James Beard The fact is that this generation - yours, my generation ... we're the first generation that can look at poverty and disease, look across the ocean to Africa and say with a straight face, we can be the first to end this sort of stupid extreme poverty, where in the world of plenty, a child can die for lack of food in it's belly. Bono The act of putting into your mouth what the earth has grown is perhaps your most direct interaction with the earth. Frances Moore Lappe Ask your child what he wants for dinner only if he's buying. Fran Lebowitz Food is an important part of a balanced diet. Fran Lebowitz If you're going to America, bring your own food. Fran Lebowitz Vegetables are interesting but lack a sense of purpose when unaccompanied by a good cut of meat. Fran Lebowitz I told my doctor I get very tired when I go on a diet, so he gave me pep pills. Know what happened? I ate faster. Joe E. Lewis If there were only turnips and potatoes in the world, someone would complain that plants grow the wrong way. Georg C. Lichtenberg Everything you see I owe to spaghetti. Sophia Loren Choose rather to punish your appetites than be punished by them. Tyrius Maximus It ain't what you eat, but the way how you chew it. Delbert McClinton You can travel fifty thousand miles in America without once tasting a piece of good bread. Henry Miller Never eat more than you can lift. Miss Piggy We are digging our graves with our teeth. Thomas Moffett Lunch kills half of Paris, supper the other half. Charles De Montesquieu No man is lonely while eating spaghetti; it requires so much attention. Christopher Morley You needn't tell me that a man who doesn't love oysters and asparagus and good wines has got a soul, or a stomach either. He's simply got the instinct for being unhappy highly developed. Hector Hugh Munro He that eats till he is sick must fast till he is well. Hebrew Proverb There is only one thing harder than looking for a dewdrop in the dew, and that is fishing for a clam in the clam chowder. New England Proverb
Tumblr media
Vegetarian food pyramid Want to learn to eat a lot? Here it is: Eat a little. That way, you will be around long enough to eat a lot. Anthony Robbins We know that ever woman wants to be thin. Our images of womanhood are almost synonymous with thinness. Susie Orbach We may find in the long run that tinned food is a deadlier weapon than the machine-gun. George Orwell Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody. Samuel Pepys Make food a very incidental part of your life by filling your life so full of meaningful things that you'll hardly have time to think about food.

French Proverb Appetite comes with eating; the more one has, the more one would have. French Proverb There is no such thing as a pretty good omelette. French Proverb Coffee should be black as Hell, strong as death, and sweet as love. Turkish Proverb When one has tasted it he knows what the angels eat. Mark Twain He who is a slave to his stomach seldom worships God. Saadi I have found it to be the most serious objection to coarse labors long continued, that they compelled me to eat and drink coarsely also. Henry David Thoreau There is nothing to which men, while they have food and drink, cannot reconcile themselves. George Santayana To eat is to appropriate by destruction. Jean-Paul Sartre Eating is not merely a material pleasure. Eating well gives a spectacular joy to life and contributes immensely to goodwill and happy companionship. It is of great importance to the morale. Elsa Schiaparelli He jests at scars that never felt a wound. William Shakespeare There is no love sincerer than the love of food. George Bernard Shaw
Tumblr media
Ideas and quotes on food Seven's a banquet nine a brawl. Author Unknown Worthless people love only to eat and drink; people of worth eat and drink only to live. Socrates For much of the female half of the world, food is the first signal of our inferiority. It lets us know that our own families may consider female bodies to be less deserving, less needy, less valuable. Gloria Steinem Lunch is for wimps. Oliver Stone Man shall not live by bread alone.

Besides your MLP au, what other kind of crossovers you think would be cool for tftgs? I like to do this thing while reading it where I imagine characters from some other thing I like in the place of the cast when I thought it fit.
I like to think of a fnaf crossover with it a lot. Like after the events of FNaF 6, Michael lives out of spite and is determined to live a normal life as a final fuck you to William. So he moves far away and tries to find a job.
The only problem, hiding the corpse thing is difficult. He tends to go by the alias "John Doe" for his own amusement, and wears a cheap white mask for a prosthetic. Because, he could only get a job in the gas station and ends up taking Calvin Ambrose's role due to his management experience.
I also like to think Jeremy and Phone Guy work there too, since both are disabled (jeremy is paralzyed and has lots of brain damage from the bite, and PG is blind) but need the extra money since neither can afford caretakers and extra stuff. Its complete coincidence

Jess’s mother is the CEO of Lifeline Contracting, a company that has a variety of physicians for any company's contracting needs, particularly jobs that hold a lot of danger to ensure that medical care is started immediately. Her grandfather started the company and Clarissa has put a lot of work into it to expand it alongside her husband Kyle. Growing up, Jessica felt a lot of pressure to meet her parents expectations. Being a top doctor in their company was the only option she had ever seen for herself and she was punished from a young age for bringing any grades home that weren’t perfection, even if they were As because they could have been better. All of her free time was spent studying and at church, as her mother is a devout catholic and made sure her children were too. Volunteering and charity galas filled nearly every weekend and Jessica really can’t remember a time where the company was not thriving.
When Huntercorp started to gain traction, Clarissa Moore saw opportunity for another company to have a large contract with. As a result, a hesitant John WInchester allowed Jessica to be sent on a mission with Sam and Dean Winchester to prove the handiness of having a trained doctor with aggressive wound care and surgical training there to start early intervention on hunting related injuries. Her first case alongside the Winchesters led to her early intervention proving its usefulness with a brutal attack significantly injuring Sam Winchester. The younger Winchester found himself rather smitten with her, but his interest wasn't quite enough to get John Winchester to budge on the kind of money Clarissa was asking for and the added expenses of training the contracted doctors within his own company. Jessica's father Kyle saw that the youngest Winchester son had been texting her when John expressed his hesitancy on agreeing to the deal despite what happened on Jessica's ride along.
To solidify the connection of Huntercorp and Lifeline Contracting, and as a sign of good faith for what would become future conglomeration of the two companies, Jessica Moore and Sam Winchester are set to be married at the suggestion of Kyle Moore. A mutually beneficial agreement was finalized and Huntercorp paid the set-up costs of their contract. Nurses and doctors that are paid by Lifeline Contracting, but are trained as agents in Huntercorp. They have to prove they can take care of themselves during hunts because they are there on the scene to bridge the gap of care between an on the job injury and the hospital. Helping with the monster killing part isn’t their primary function, but they are all trained to assist as getting results is the most important part of a job and an extra set of eyes is never a bad thing.
While Jessica was a little iffy on the concept of arranged marriage, and pretty upset that her parents seemed to think she was nothing more than a bargaining chip, she finds Sam to be an absolute dreamboat. She falls in love with him almost instantly. She is a well-mannered, gracious woman with a brilliant mind and can't imagine her life not meaning something. She couldn't live a life where she doesn't help save others. While she can be a bit on the shy side, she is not afraid to comment on those behaving inappropriately, especially when it comes to sexual promiscuity and forbidden office relationships. Particularly, she is pretty vocal about Heidi and Mick, as the two do not even try to hide their relationship as it goes on and the blatant office affair with semi-public sex is downright despicable to her.
Jessica is very keen on keeping Huntercorp’s reputation clean. Cameron Ambrose acts as her mole for office gossip to ensure that nobody is behaving in any way that will get themselves or others killed or put the company in a bad light. Some of the agents that she has tattled on to Sam do not like her, but she sees this only as veiled guilt for their actions. At some point before their big, extravagant wedding, Sam is able to convince her to have sex. Turns out? She loves it! And it becomes a pretty regular thing for them after they had avoided acting on the growing, palpable sexual tension between them. It is pretty noticeable around the office that she’s a lot less uptight and judgmental from this point further.

Rumble implications months ahead of the actual event.
Tumblr media
The Royal Rumble is one of the most fun events. The statistics of how long you last or how many you eliminate. The story of a low number making it to the end or a superstar wanting to main event Wrestlemania. The interactions you may not normally see and the possible beginning and ends of storyline feuds. But one of the neat things are the surprise entrants.
The Surprise Entrants can be many things. An injured wrestler coming back. A former employee returning for either one night or making their return. A retired wrestler making one last appearance. And recently, specifically with the Women’s Royal Rumble, the Forbidden Door opened with a TNA Wrestler making an appearance. So what if the Forbidden Door next year has AEW wrestlers make an appearance.
I doubt it considering how much AEW have bad mouthed the WWE at times but you never know. So which AEW Superstar would be cool to see in the event? So here are my 5 choices.
Tumblr media
0 - Former WWE Superstars
Let’s face it, the easiest won’t really be as big for AEW as it would for WWE. Most people already know them from their time in WWE. So having Edge, Bryan Danielson or John Moxley (Dean Ambrose) show up would definitely get a pop. But it wouldn’t be a pop because they’re from AEW. It would be a pop because they came back to WWE. So I’m focusing on those who made themselves in AEW and have relatively no WWE appearances.
Tumblr media
0 - Names made in other companies
Same reason as above, though I know most would probably associate them with AEW. Kenny Omega, the Young Bucks, Ospreay, they definitely made their names outside of AEW. And it would be super easy to make a list with them included. Basically, their AEW appearances have to dwarf their appearances elsewhere to be part of this list.
Tumblr media
1 - MJF
I don’t think many would argue MJF is the biggest star AEW has made. And I bet you could argue he is their biggest star in AEW period. So I can imagine the pop he would get being an AEW star in a WWE ring. When it comes to WWE, MJF’s only appearance (as far as I know) was as a security guard for Samoa Joe. That was played for a feud the two of them had in AEW. So making his first (and possibly only) WWE appearance like this would definitely be a big deal.
Tumblr media
2 - Darby Allin
World Wrestling Network, EVOLVE Wrestling, Northeast Wrestling, AAW: Professional Wrestling Redefined. Combine all the matches he had in these promotions and it would still be less than his time in AEW. So if anyone deserves to be considered a pillar it's definitely him. And considering how willing he is to do certain things, I can see him being down to do a killer elimination if he was in. They would definitely pop.
Tumblr media
3 - Wardlow
If there is one AEW Wrestler who would fit the WWE mold, it would be Wardlow. His storyline with MJF was star-making and a big guy like him would always be impressive. Shame he probably isn’t as big of a star as he could be considering how they handled his title reign, his rehashing teaming up with Adam Cole and now injuries. But if anything can make him look like a big star again it would be a Rumble appearance with a good number of eliminations.
Tumblr media
4 - Britt Baker
She had 3 WWE matches, but as a jobber for others. I’m pretty sure you can add up all her other wrestling appearances and can’t come close to AEW. She is definitely their best known Homegrown Female Talent outside Jade (who is now in the WWE), so her making an appearance would be pretty cool to see. Others I wish I could put on this list among the women are like Toni Storm or Willow Nightingale but they definitely made themselves outside of AEW.
Tumblr media
5 - Jack Perry
There’s only one reason: Brawl Out 2024. The incident that had AEW fire CM Punk. If they had someone who could keep Punk on a leash like they likely do in WWE, this could have been big money. You’re seeing it now with Drew McIntyre. If they intend on making Perry a bigger star, showing up in a WWE Royal Rumble to reignite that feud in a controlled environment would be great.
And that’s my list. Who do you think would be a good showcase of AEW to a WWE Audience?

Jealousy| John Ambrose
A/N: I wrote this only because I loved that piano scene and my boy John deserved way better.
Warning(s): strong language, kissing (if that counts as a warning)
°•○●○•°
Tumblr media
You watched them talk from a distance, putting away the dried-out plants in the useless pile, you signed in defeat. Lara was your best friend, you, her and Josh grew up together, the three of you were the ultimate trio.  You loved her with all your heart but at that moment, you couldn’t help yourself to stop the fire of jealously that rose in your chest. Or that could’ve just been the tacos you ate for lunch.
You had never told Lara about the mini crush you had on John. To be completely honest, you had almost forgotten about him. Almost gotten over him but after seeing him for the first time in years in Belleview, all those feelings came back. If it was even possible, he had gotten more charming over the years. Every interaction you had with him after that day screamed you to get away. The devil, or angel, you couldn’t figure out who, but one of them always screamed to end your feelings, that in the end, he was just going to break your heart…like everyone else. These voices started after the first day of interacting with him. When Lara feel down by the mini gumballs, he came to help her up. He seemed to remember her but when it came to you, his words, which are glued in your brain, “and you are?” It wasn’t that he was being rude, in fact he tried to say it in the sweetest way he possibly could, with that signature smile on his face, it turned to shock in seconds when you told him your name. Thankfully he did remember you.
Your eyes were still glued to them, seeing their interaction as he walked over to grab an envelope, ‘must have been Lara Jean’s love letter’ you thought as he placed it in her hands. Lara took the letter from his hands, walking out as you saw John smiling.
“um a little help please” you said quietly. John turned his head, facing you as he quickly nodded his head, “yeah sorry” he added, making his way over to grab more of the plants that had died.
It had been a few minutes of you two working quietly, Lara had still not gotten back and to be honest, you weren’t the best conversation starter. “so y/n” John started, carrying a few boxes and placing it in the donation pile.
“yes John”
Though you didn’t notice, he blushed slightly, hearing you say his name. Letting out a light cough, he continued, “your very different then when I last remember you”
“really…how so?” you asked, turning to face him.
“well for one, your gorgeous” he answered, smiling lightly. You playfully shoved him, both of you laughing in the process, “I’m serious, you are seriously stunning, like y-you have always been stunning but now looking at you, you’ve gotten even more stunning…”
Blushing at his words, you chuckled when you noticed he couldn’t stop blabbering. “I think we should get some work done,” you said as he nodded, agreeing with you. “and then you can tell me how stunning I am” you teased as he threw a dirty rag at you.
--
A few weeks volunteering, you had grew closer to John. Though you would always feel overshadowed by Lara. There were times when it felt as if he’d forget you were in the same room when she was around. You signed as you looked around the party you were in. You were standing by the corner of the room, Chris was by the stairs with Trevor, Lara was talking to Lucas and you didn’t feel like intruding. Chris had forced you to come to the party, otherwise you would’ve been in your comfy bed, watching your favourite show.
A few minutes passed when you noticed Lara finally leaving Lucas’s side. Giving you the opportunity to finally go over and find someone to talk to. Don’t get me wrong, you and Lara were best friends, but sometimes you knew when she needed her own space.
“hey Lucas” you smiled as you leaned against the counter, mimicking him.
“hey girl” he replies, turning his head to the side to face you. “what’s up? How come you didn’t join us?”
You knew what he was talking about, you smile lightly faded and you forced it upon yourself, in hopes that he wouldn’t have noticed. But you were wrong. “I guess I just..didn’t wanna intrude” you whisper so only he would hear. Though the music in the background made it slightly difficult.
Lucas rolled his eyes, “didn’t wanna intrude, seriously?”
You stayed quite, “okay, spill” he says firmly, making you turn your head to face him. About to question, you knew if you could tell anyone about your problem, it was Lucas.
Letting out a breathe you didn’t realize you were holding, you start talking, “I like John”
Lucas raises an eyebrow, “John?” he questions.
“John Ambrose McClaren” you finished.
Lucas chokes on the ice cream sandwich he was eating. “you like McClaren” he gasps dramatically.
It was your turn to roll your eyes. “yes I like him. I always did since middle school.”
“Does Lara Jean know?”
“no, I never told her.” You start playing with your hands, unable to continue the conversation.
“why not, if you liked him since middle scho-”
“I didn’t want to ruin our friendship. She and Gen broke off cause of a boy and I didn’t want the same thing to happen to us, so I never told her.”
“And you think she won’t find out”
You completely ignore his statement and continue rambling, “you know, sometimes when it’s just me and him, he makes me feel like I’m the most beautiful girl he knows. And then when Lara comes along, it’s like he forgot I even existed. I don’t want to hate her, I really don’t but he makes it so difficult every time I see him with her. I wish he talked to me the way he talks to her. I wish he would see me the way I see him.”
You place your head on the counter in defeat. You feel Lucas hand on your shoulder, rubbing it in comfort. “I’m sorry, I really don’t know what to tell you. All I know is, you’ve got to tell Lara the truth. Before she finds out another way”
You nod your head, knowing he was right. “too late” you hear a faint whisper, causing both you and Lucas to turn around. You see Lara standing there, shook. She turns her heal, jogging her way to the door.
“Lara please just listen to me” you shout, following her track.
“Listen to what, how you lied to me. All these years you lied to me.” Lara tried to turn back but you didn’t let her, “I didn’t want to lose you. Especially not over a boy. He wasn’t as nearly as important to me then our friendship”
You notice Lara let out a tear with your words. “You know I would’ve never been angry, I wouldn’t have ever let our friendship go over a reason like that.”
You nodded your head, feeling ashamed you lied to your friend all these years. “do you still like him?” she asks, to which you simply nod your head. “do you?” you ask.
The question causes her to look up at you instantly. “no, of course not. I love Peter”
--
“Whose ever idea it was to invite everyone to dig up the time capsule, is-“ your voice trailed off as Lara gave you a death glare, to which you immediately changed your answer, “is a genius, I mean everyone back after years right?”
“I have to agree, get idea Lara Jean” John comments, smiling at her.
You frowned as your gaze fell on Peter also carried the same jealous expression as you. Not even two minutes later, everyone including Gen had shown up. You all were now sitting in the treehouse, in a circle, opening the time capsule. One by one, everyone started collecting their items they put in the capsule. Chris finally took out a little black book and your eyes turned to horror as you jogged to grab it. Placing your head in your hands, you cringed at your younger self. “what is it?” Lara questioned.
“it’s a little book of poems I used to write”
Everyone laughed as you started reading some in your head, “that’s really cute” John says.
You smile, blushing at his words. You lift your gaze up and your heart shatters, realizing he wasn’t talking to you but Lara. Guess you were too lost in your book that you didn’t hear the conversation that was talking place. Unable to top the tears that built up in your eyes, you decided that was your cue to leave.
Quickly wiping your eyes before anyone noticed, which failed because Gen had her eyes focused on you. You stood up, grabbing your belongings and quickly making your way down.
“y/n, where’re you going?” John asks as you started making your way down the stairs.
“leaving” you reply quietly, as you hear a few other people agreeing with you, stating it was their time to leave as well.
You started speed walking to your car, mentally noting that Lara could go with Peter and you really couldn’t stay another minute with John in the same room. The tears that you had wiped off started coming back, and all you could do was continue to wipe them off.
“y/n wait, just stop” John cries behind you. The voice only caused your feet to stride faster.
Just a few steps away from your car, you were stopped by a gentle touch on your wrist. Knowing who it was, you didn’t want to turn around or let him see you cry. Wiping the tears with your other hand, you turned around aggressively, which seemed to surprise him. Probably because you have never been that aggressive with anyone, especially not towards him.
But the anger and hurt that you felt all these weeks, just started building up and today was your breaking point. “are you okay?” he asks with hesitation in his voice, trying to gather the right words.
“no John, I’m not okay. And right now I just need you to leave me alone” You had never meant to shout but him constantly trying to get you to talk was getting on your nerves.
“I don’t understand what the problem is. I mean did I do something wrong, cause everything was fine a few minutes ago.”
You cursed in your head at how oblivious he is. Why can’t he see the undeniable feeling of jealousy you have right now.
“yes, its you, okay. You’re the problem, you’ve always been the problem. And I try so hard to ignore it but you make it so goddamn difficult. Just leave me alone” and with that, you hop in your car, driving off. Leaving John just standing there, incredibly confused.
--
The next day, you were supposed to volunteer at Belleview and as much as you didn’t want to go, especially since Lara wasn’t coming today. You forced yourself to go. You were in the basement, clearing up the last junk you had found. It was peaceful but was blessed by the beautiful sound of a piano. Signing loudly, you knew who was playing it.
A few moments of war just inside your head, whether or not you should go there, you decided you had to.
Making your way quietly towards the sound, you stood behind him, his back was facing you as he sat on the stool, his fingers carefully falling on the keys perfectly. You just stood there and admired him when he seemed to acknowledge your presence, his fingers continued to play as he spoke his next words, “you have quiet the ability to remain sneakily silent”
“I didn’t know you still played” you answer.
“I never stopped” he whispers, turning his head, signalling you to sit beside him. Carefully making your way, you sat beside him as he moved slightly, giving you space.
“I used to love playing” you say, remembering how much fun you had playing the piano.
“why did you stop” he asks, your gaze falling to his hands, that never stopped hitting the keys.
You opened your mouth, with a little hesitation though continued, “I guess after you left, my passion for playing left too. You were kind of my inspiration”
He smiled, blushing slightly as he gently grabbed your hands. Guiding to a few keys, he showed which keys to play. In a matter of seconds, you started playing the notes he taught you, following your pace as he started playing as well.
“remember in middle school. At lunch, we used to hang around the music room and I would show you how to play”
You laughed, “of course I remember. You were the only reason I started playing in the first place.”
He smiled facing you as you stared back, your heartbeat raising just by the look he gave you. “I’m sorry” You confess, your gaze returning to the fingers that played on the keys of the piano.
“for what, exactly?” John absently asks, pushing the keys of the piano. The sound echoing through the room.
“for shouting at you yesterday. I let my emotions get the best of me.” You admit, flustered as you thought back to your behaviour the previous day.
Meeting your gaze, he lets out a sign as he stopped playing. “I’m not going to lie, it hurt.” His hands fell on his lap, while his gaze dropped to the keys in front of him. “But most of all, I don’t understand what I did wrong?”
You closed your eyes, letting out a breath as you replayed the scene over your head. You let your jealously get the best of you, causing you to react in a way. You were unsure how you were going to explain that to John.
“I got jealous” you whisper in hopes he didn’t hear you.
“Jealous of what?” You watched his eyebrows furrow in confusion. Surely this was going to be new news to him.
Signing once more, your head fell to your lap, playing with your hands as you figure out your next words, “of you and Lara.”
“I’m sorry y/n but I don’t understand why you would be jealous o-“
“I guess I wanted you to act the same way you do around her, to me”
He was silent, and you understood that he still had not figured what you were talking about. “I like you” you express quickly, feeling the huge weight leave your shoulders.
“I like you too, y/n?”
You chuckle in pain as you hear the confusion in his voice. You finally lift your gaze off your lap to his, that were already watching you.
A few seconds, you watched his face turn into realization, “oh-“ he replied, his gaze falling to everything in the room except you.
Considering that as your cue to leave, you got off the stool, turning to leave. Your feet came to a halt as you felt a hand on your wrist. Hearing shuffling behind you, you finally felt his hand leave. His hands fell on your shoulder, turning you around to face him.
Unable to look at him, you looked down in hopes he’d let you go. “look at me” he whispers, “please.”
Your eyes go up, finally landing on his own. ‘If your going to give me a pity excuse and sorry, I really don’t wanna he-“ Your words stop the moment launched his lips onto yours. Your breath hitched in your throat, your brain was unable to process what was happening. And before it got a chance to, he slowly pulled away.
He must have got the wrong interpretation because he was quick to start apologizing, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have-“ You couldn’t stop yourself from grabbing his collar and placing his lips on yours. You felt him smile into the kiss, his hands slowly trailing their way from your shoulder to your waist, gently pulling you closer to him.
Your own hands travelled towards his neck, wrapping them around as you both pulled yourselves dangerously close, if that was even possible. The kiss was slow and passionate, both your lips moved in sync. You felt your heart racing as his hands slid to your hips, pushing you closer against him. You licked his bottom lip for entrance, to which he gladly accepted. Your fingers played with the hairs on the back of his neck, lightly pulling them, causing him to get out a groan. A sound which you instantly fell in love with.
Though you knew you both would’ve continued, you were forced to stop when you hear a cough coming from beside you. Both you and John pulled away instantly. Both of you started fixing yourself, trying to look as presentable as possible as you turned to see who had interrupted.
Stormy stood then with the biggest smile on her face. One where she did not even try to hide. “martini anyone.” She asks, laughing as she made her way back upstairs.
“so…you wanna try that again?” John asks, smiling when he notices you blushing.
And with that, he pulled you in for another kiss.

At the same instant substantial form and the principle of life were drought brought into existence...The whale, as well as the frog, came into existence at the same time by the same creative power (5:1, 2, pp. 160-62) He (Moses) did not look forward to a late and leisurely creation of the word out of a concourse of atoms (1:2, pp. 5, 7). And fittingly (Moses) added: He created, lest it be thought there was a delay in creation. Furthermore, men would see also how incomparable the Creator was Who completed such a work in the briefest moment of His creative act, so much so that the effect of His will anticipated the perception of time (Ibid., 1:5, p.8). The Church Fathers were unanimous in asserting God creates immediately and instantaneously, that it is His word which produces all things and is not the property of the waters or earth to bring forth life. St. Ambrose of Milan - Hexaemeron 7:2, p.107

420AD "The world was created by God nearly six thousand years ago,"Sulpitius Severus Sacred History book 1 ch 2
430AD "Unbelievers are also deceived by false documents which ascribe to history many thousand years, although we can calculate from Sacred Scripture that not 6,000 years have passed since the creation of man." Augustine City of God Book 12 ch 10
YEC is not the default or historic christian view and is actually a rather recent doctrinal development
while I doubt that, I also don't care. My opinion is dictated by what's in scripture, not what other people think
