with: tammie jones and ryan cross where: fightnight @blackheartatl
★・・・・・・★
He knew as he made a walk towards her that Tammie was on a war path that would try and circumnavigate him. He also knew exactly why she was pissed off but that didn't mean he would get any closer to addressing it. Ryan never saw his own actions as catalysts and his apologies were only ever rare and quick, usually right at the brink of almost losing her completely. Deflect. If he could get Tammie to apologize first, he was just fine. Problem forgotten about. Deflect. The whole movement was deflection wrapped up in affection, his hand lifting up to her face in a bid to stop her walking around him. "Hey, slow down. I just want you to talk to me." Deflect. Even the smile on his face was deflection before he bowed his head to take a kiss from her. As his hands cupped Tammie's face gently, he grinned to her and used his thumbs to force the corner of her lips upwards. "You miss her when you're not there, huh? Is that it?" He knew it wasn't.

★・・・・・・★
"Right." the laugh was stilted, Ryan unnaturally obligated to find his friend funny. It could be an easy question to ask. It could be a conversation that caused more good than problems but Ryan couldn't see any potential optimism. He saw his truck once, if it was just once then it's fine. Whatever. But what if it wasn't? Ryan watched Beau's sheepish behavior, suddenly no longer seeing a friend but a man of contrived actions. Suddenly all those times Beau was with them, laughing over drinks, he was waiting for the perfect time to strike. Was it in their bed? Ryan's frown formed quickly at the thought, head tilting as Beau dug himself a hole with his own words. "Yeah? You think you'd do a better job?" he asked with another forced grin. The knife had so many edges it was hard to tell where it was pointing to. Ryan looked away, taking a sip of his beer as his mind flicked through several alternatives to end the conversation. He imagined a crack of Beau's head on the ground, a satisfying break of a nose and he could imagine yelling, Tammie's voice and another bag being packed to throw into his truck but this time not being able to see Faith again. Was she his? Ryan's own laughter broke his train of thought, glancing up to Beau and shoving him again on the arm. "Ah, I'm just fucking with you, man. You need to relax." he chuckled, shaking his head as the smile never reached his eyes. "Shoulda seen the look on your face, though." Finishing up the rest of the beer, Ryan lifted it in his departure. "Getting myself another then I better go see if I can, what you call it? Make her feel special."
Tumblr media
"Oh yeah, that's it. Not sure which one is which." Beau laughs dryly with nobody but himself to blame for the tension and awkwardness between the two friends. Of course, he doesn't blame only himself. If Ryan loved Tammie the way Beau believes he pretends to, then they wouldn't be in this mess either. He snickers at the remark because there's not much else he can do, having to take all the jokes and quips with broad shoulders and a forced smile. It's like they're both pretending they both have no idea, and he reckons that's worse. "No, no. Not like that. I was just saying, it's what they all like, right? To feel a little special." he coughs, certain he's now made it worse as he sips his beer and looks anywhere but to Ryan. He nods about the overtime, about to respond when he's been backed into a corner and has nowhere to run. He looks to Ryan finally, scoffing slightly. "What?" he asks the once, tensing slightly but laughing it off in the same breath. "What the hell is that supposed to mean?" If they're going to do this, it may as well be surrounded by other members right? Fight nights have never just had one show.

abandoned barn fight night
kas morrison and ruben gray @blackheartatl
It wasn't difficult to dislike Kasen. Ru had thought for years the other man was a piece of shit but due to circumstance, he had the pleasure of now calling the old 'friend' his roommate. If living together wasn't enough, the two of them were new recruits which meant Ruben never saw the back of Kas' fuzzy hair. "I wanted a chance tonight." he sighed, clutching his beer and glancing around the packed barn. Fight nights were great fun, but even better when he was allowed in the ring. "When was the last time you got your ass handed to you, Morrison? Feels like a while since I got to see you holding your face and crying like a baby." he laughed, finding whatever joke he could to poke some fun at the other man. It was hilarious until it wasn't and with Kas and Ru, it was never clear which way it could go.

Word Count - 3693
Tumblr media
Masterlist
Friday, June 6th
"Em?" Y/N asked looking into the mirror at her stomach. "Does my stomach look, I dont know, bloated to you?"
"Um, yeah, maybe a little bit. I dont think it's anything to worry about though." The older woman replied, after looking at the girls stomach.
"I just feel like I'm getting fat. Paul probably notices too." She put her head down.
"Honey, that boy loves you more than anything. You're his whole world. You have nothing to worry about. He imprinted on you and he loves you. Now stop putting yourself down and help me make this food for them animals."
The girl laughed and started getting the table set.
Tuesday, June 10th
"Hm. That's weird."
"What?" Leah asked, the girl staying at her house.
"Nothing, just my period was supposed to start 3 days ago. I'm sure it's fine, this happens sometimes."
"If you're sure, and hurry up Elijah is about to kill Klaus."
Thursday, June 19th
The girl let out a groan, flushing the toilet after being woken up with the sudden urge to vomit.
Saturday, June 21st
All the girls, Emily, Leah, Kim, and Y/N, were all out shopping and having a girls day.
While Leah and Kim were looking through sets of bikinis. Y/N pulled Emily to the side.
"Em, I think I might be pregnant."
"What? Why do you think that??"
"Um, my periods late, my stomach looks bloated, and I've been throwing up. Not to mention Paul made my favorite dinner the other night and I couldn't stand the smell."
"We need to get you a test then, Hon."
***
After Leah and Kim left, Emily let Y/N go into the bathroom to take the test.
Coming out the bathroom, Y/N starts stressing. "What if its positive? What will Paul think? How do I deal with this?"
"Hey. Hey. Just breath. Let's first figure out if you're pregnant or not." Emily calmly says.
"Yeah, you're right." Taking a deep breath she starts to calm, until the timer goes off and her eyes get wide. "Can you check?"
Emily walks into the bathroom and looks at the test, coming out with tears in her eyes. "Um, yeah, you're pregnant"
"Oh mi gosh. Em, what am I supposed to do? Paul and I haven't even talked about kids. What if he doesn't want any?"
"Don't jump to conclusions. Take a couple days to think, and tell Paul when you're ready."
"Thank you, Emily. You always know what to say." The girl wraps her arms around the woman.
Wednesday, June 25th
The imprints made burgers and the pack was having a cookout. Everyone was making their plates. Y/N started to make her plate putting 2 burgers, each with cheese, tomato, onion, and chili. Put a little bit of slaw on the side and some chips.
"Dang girl, you're hungry today." Embry joked, making the girl laugh.
"He's not kidding you are eating a lot more lately." Jacob grumbled.
The girl got quiet and let out a silent "oh".
"What was that? Jacob." Paul growled.
"I'm just saying look at her Paul, everyone here notices how big she's getting. Maybe she should cut back."
After hearing that the girl started to stand up. Paul grabbing her hand. "Its fine, Paul. I'm just gonna go home."
She quietly grabbed her bag and apologized for the inconvenience. "Sorry, I didn't realize I did that. You can have them." Then she walked out the house. Leah chasing after her.
"What the fuck Jacob?!" Paul yelled.
"Paul." Sam warned.
"No Sam. He called her fat, she's not fat."
"We don't need a fight to break out."
"If he didn't want a fight he wouldn't have said anything."
"Paul. Enough."
Paul was shaking horribly. Sam pushed him out the house.
"Really Jacob?!" Jared called, running after Sam and Paul.
"Why is everyone so mad? I just told her how it was. You all can see how much bigger she's getting." Jacob tried to justify himself.
"That doesn't mean that you point it out." Seth told him.
"I know you were all thinking it. Just because I have the guts to tell Paul how it is doesn't make me the bad guy."
"Maybe you should learn the whole story before you go around hurting people."
"Seth. What's that supposed to mean? Seth!"
Seth ran out the house, hoping to find Leah and Y/N.
"Embry? Even you said something."
"I was joking Jake. What you did was uncalled for." Embry scoffed.
"Come on."
"Just stop Jacob." Emily snapped, causing the three left there to widen there eyes.
"Emily. Seriously? You know she's bigger!" Jacob was getting angry.
"Yeah, Jacob. She's eating more and getting bigger, but it's none of your business!" Emily snapped again.
"What if eating so much is hurting her?"
"It's not though, Jacob."
"How do you know??"
"Jacob when she is ready you'll know. Until then shut up."
"Sorry, damn."
***
"Y/N!"
"Y/N"
"Damn, you're fast."
"What do you want Leah?" Y/N sighed as she stopped and turned around, her eyes red and puffy.
"Don't listen to Jacob. He's an asshole."
"I don't care about what Jake said."
"You do or you wouldn't be crying."
"He called me fat Leah. I've never been called that before." She started to tear up. "And it's not even that I'm fat."
"What is it then?"
"Leah...I'm pregnant."
"What!? That's great news."
"Yeah, except for the fact everyone thinks I'm a pig now."
"They do not. If anyone's a pig it's Jacob. Now come on, you need the feed that little one."
***
"Paul!"
"Calm down!"
"Shift back!"
Sam phased into his wolf.
"Paul!"
"He's such an asshole." Paul snarled.
"You need to shift back. Calm down."
"I'm going to rip his throat out."
"Paul!"
"Come on Paul. She needs you." Jared joined.
"I'm trying! I can't control it."
"Calm your thoughts. Breath."
Paul started to shift back, pulling up his shorts in the process. Jared and Sam following shortly after.
***
"Y/N/N! Are you ok? You know Jake doesn't mean to be an ass." Seth tried to reassure the girl.
The girl laughed and grabbed Seth's hands. "Yes. I'm good. Thank you for checking up on me."
It was quiet for a few moments as the trio started walking back to the house. "So..." Seth piped up. "Does she know?"
Leah gasped. "What?! Know?! You told Seth before you told me!"
"He wasn't supposed to find out! He walked in on me having a meltdown about Paul." Y/N defended herself.
"Shit." The girl squeaked. "Paul! He's going to be asking questions. What am I supposed to tell him! I'm not ready. I just found out myself. I need to process this more. Stupid Jacob and his stupid big mouth!"
"Hey! Hey. Just breathe. Paul will understand if you don't want to talk." Leah reassured.
"Are you sure? Because Paul-"
Seth cut the girl off. "She's sure Y/N/N. He wouldn't pressure you into telling him something you don't want to. Now let's go eat I'm sure Little Bit in there is starving."
Both girls let out laughs.
"Um, guys, actually I was just going to go home. I don't wanna face Jacob's apologizes right now."
"Y/F/N you need to eat." Leah demanded.
"Just bring me something when you're finished? Please."
Leah sighed, knowing she wasn't changing the girls decision. "Fine. But you better eat everything I bring you."
"Pinky promise." She held up both her pinkies to Seth and Leah, Seth grabbing her pinky with his, giggling. Leah rolled her eyes, but nevertheless did the same.
"And..." The girl trailed. "Tell Paul that I took his truck. And that I'm ok?"
"So needy." Leah joked, dragging the 'y'.
"But fine I can do that."
"Thank you! You two are the best!"
"We know." They both said at the same time, causing the trio to laugh.
***
Back at home, the girl, took off her shoes and changed into pajama shorts and one of Paul's shirts.
Turning on her and Leah's favorite show to watch, 'The Vampire Diaries'. It was nice to watch people play supernatural creatures. Got their minds off of the real ones that loomed outside.
***
"Finally!" Was the first thing Leah and Seth heard as they walked through the door into Emily's and Sam's.
"Where's Y/N?" Was the second.
Leah was the one to tell Paul the situation.
"So, you just let her leave?" Paul said.
"Yes. She is a grown woman Paul." Leah retorted.
"She didn't even eat."
"I told her I would bring her something."
"I think I should go over there."
"No, you shouldn't." Sam butted in.
"And why not?!"
"Because Paul you just shifted you don't need to do that around her."
"I wouldn't hurt her." Paul glared.
"That's not the point. I said no and my answer is final. You will not go over to Y/N's tonight." Using his alpha voice, making Paul growl and leave the table.
***
"Is it bad that I'm kind of glad Sam did that?" The girl let out to her best friend.
"Yes!" Leah exclaimed.
"I just- I don't know what I would say to him."
"Your fear of confrontation is peeking through."
"Leah! This is serious."
"And I'm being serious. Paul deserves to know."
"I know. I'm just..." The girl let out a sigh. "Scared."
"You should never be scared with him. He looks at you like you're his sun. The thing that is keeping him alive."
"What if he doesn't want a baby? What if this is the one thing he can't handle with me." She whispered.
"That boy would love to start a family with you. The timing may not be ideal, but I've seen the way he looks at you. I saw the way he looked at you before the imprint. You are his literal everything and not just because fate decided you were destined. You were meant to have forever with each other way before fate decided it."
Y/N had tears in her eyes by the time Leah had finished. "I really needed that Leah." She sniffled. "I guess, sometimes, my insecurities take over. I've just been so scared, with the vampires and Bella. There's no time for a baby. Not in his life. He already has so much on him. Why do I need to add more?"
"Quit putting yourself down. You know you come first, when it comes to anything with Paul. A baby is not a burden, or something that just adds pressure. A baby can bring joy and bring people together. Maybe that's what we all need right now."
"Yeah. Maybe you're right."
"No maybe about it. I am right."
"Oh so modest." The girls giggled.
Thursday, June 26th
Awoken to heavy knocks on the front door, both girls growned, having stayed up most of the night talking.
"Y/N. Get the door." Leah grumbled.
"Why me?" The girl whined.
"It's your house."
"You kept me up all night."
"You mean you kept me up all night."
"No."
"Just open the door."
"Fine." She whined, pushing herself out of bed, looking at the clock on her nightstand that read 8:07 am.
Stomping to the door, grumbling profanities the whole way. She pulled the door open only to be greeted with-
"Paul?"
"Hey! I couldn't sleep without making sure you were ok. Jacob was an asshole. He never should have said those untrue things. I love your body and you should too. I think you're beautiful, inside and out. I don't care that you can eat two burgers, I love a woman that can hold her food. Yo-"
"Paul." She cut him off. "As sweet as this is, can we do it later? I'm sorry. Leah kept me up until 5 this morning and all I wanna do is curl up and take a hundred year nap."
"Yeah. Yeah. Of course. Want a cuddle buddy?" A smirk slowly rising on his face.
"You know I could never turn you down." She grinned pulling him inside and onto the couch.
***
By the time the girl woke Paul was already gone, a note in his place, telling her he had patrol but would be back after.
Leah was gone too, so the girl assumed the pack needed her as well.
Grabbing some clothes, she went into the bathroom and turned on the shower.
***
After a much needed shower, Y/N looked out the window and noticed Paul's truck still in the driveway and his keys still on her nightstand.
Grabbing the keys, and getting in the truck, she started her drive to Emily's.
***
"Hey Em." She called, walking inside.
"Heyyyy." Said girl peeked her head out the kitchen. "I need to talk to you."
"Ok, nothing stressful about that sentence at all."
"Have you told Paul?"
"Diving right in, I see." She muttered.
"Huh?" Emily called from the kitchen.
"Oh! Uh- no I haven't."
"Do you know when you're going to? Because I think you should soon, it'll make all this doubt you have go away."
"I don't know. Soon though, promise!"
Tuesday, July 7th
Everyone was gathered around Emily and Sam's table, laughing and joking around. Well, everyone except Jacob he was upset with Bella, which made him brood.
Y/N sat beside Paul, occasionally stealing the tomatoes off his plate, he always put them to the side for her to grab because they were her favorites and he wasn't that fond of them.
Going unnoticed by the pack and the imprints, everytime she'd take one Jacob would roll his eyes and scoff.
Grabbing the last one of Paul's plate and about to put it in her mouth she was stopped by Jacob's rude voice.
"Are you serious?" He scoffed.
Everyone looked around confused as to what his sudden outburst was about.
"Everything ok, Jacob?" Emily asked.
Jacob let out a little laugh and clicked his tongue.
This time Y/N spoke up.
"Are you upset, Jacob?"
"Me? What? No." He paused. "I do think Paul should be though."
"Why would Paul be upset?" You furrowed your eyebrows.
"Because his girlfriend has already had more than enough, but she's still eating. And not just that but taking it off his plate. Do you really need that much food Y/N? All it does is make you fatter, which is definitely not something you need. If anything you need to exercise more." He spat at her.
His outburst caused Kim and Emily to let out gasps. Jared and Paul standing up.
Paul had his mouth open about to say something but before he could Y/N interrupted.
"Paul. It's fine. He can feel the way he feels. I'm just gonna go home."
"No you're not." Emily piped in. "Jacob if you could please leave."
"What?" Jacob exclaimed.
"I asked if you could leave, I expect you to use respect in my house and until I see you give some to Y/N I want you to leave."
"She's not even apart of the pack."
"She's an imprint. We are apart of this pack, now are you gonna apologize or did I need to get Paul to escort you out?"
Jacob scuffed, "I'm sorry I called you fat, it may be true but it was not nice of me to say."
Paul was fuming, "I accept your apology"
"No she doesn't." Paul vented.
"Paul, it's fine I don't wanna cause a fight."
"You're not causing the fight. He is."
"He apologized. That's enough. Let's finish eating, then I have to tell you something."
***
"You wanted to tell me something?" Paul said, as he drove them home.
"Can it wait? I'm really tired and just wanna go to sleep."
"Of course, Sweetheart." He kisses her temple.
Thursday, July 9th
"I'm telling him."
All three girls let out simultaneous screams.
"Finally!" Emily exclaimed.
"Took you long enough" Leah joked.
"I still can't believe you're pregnant." Kim gasped.
"Well maybe I should wait a little longer, maybe until August?" Y/N let out a cheeky grin.
"No!" All three girls yelled.
The guys were on patrol and the imprints had the house to themselves. There was a knock at the door.
The girl laughed as she got up to get the door.
"Are you expecting anyone?" Leah questioned Emily.
"No." Emily whispered out.
"Y/N don't answer that." Leah called.
"Guys I invited someone." Y/N answered back.
"Who? We're your only friends." Leah joked.
Y/N opened the door, only for Bella to be standing awkwardly on the other side.
"Hi! Come in. Come in."
"No." Leah deadpanned.
"I thought it would be nice. Jacob really likes her."
"Why do you care what Jacob thinks? He's an ass."
"He wasn't always one. And a friend of Jake's is a friend of ours."
"Well, I think it was nice of Y/N to invite Bella. Make yourself at home Bella, the guys shouldn't be back for a while so it's just us girls. Right now we're just talking but later we're baking!" Emily clapped.
"Ok." Bella squeaked out.
"I don't think we've met. I'm Kim." She introduced herself.
"Bella." She said and waved.
"Well sit down, come on." Emily waved her over. "You ok if we still talk about.."
"Of course! As long as you promise not to tell the guys." Y/N put on her best serious face and looked Bella dead in her eyes.
"I barely talk to them."
"You can't tell Jacob."
"I won't tell Jacob."
"Ok..well I'm pregnant, the baby is Paul's and I haven't told him yet."
"Omg. Congratulations."
"Thank you! I'm kinda in this adrenaline thing right now and I'm hoping it won't wear off by the time Paul gets here." The girls giggled.
"So. Boys!" Emily exclaimed. "Jared?"
"We're really good. He's the greatest. The other day he tried to make me breakfast in bed, he got up really early, my parents were out of town, word of advice Em, never and I mean ever let Jared in the kitchen. It was sweet though he brought me fried eggs and bacon, only all of it was black." Kim laughed at the memory. "And I have a burnt spot on the wall in my kitchen, he still won't tell me what happened."
"He's such a klutz."
"But he makes it so adorable!"
The girls laughed at how in love she was.
"I already told y'all all my boy struggles." Y/N threw her hands up. "What about Sam?" She wiggled her eyebrows, causing the girls to let out giggles.
"Sam is..." Emily let out a sigh, "Sam is perfect. The wedding is soon, as you all know. But enough about me I wanna know about your love life Leah. Oh, and Bella would you like anything to drink, we've got wine and water, sorry not much."
"I'm good. Thank you." Bella muttered, still awkward.
"Leahhhh. Love life. Go." Emily may be a little tipsy.
"Can't talk about something that's non-existent."
"Leah don't lie. We're all friends here." Y/N blurted out.
"Fine. I did meet this girl....but that's all I'm saying!"
Emily and Kim let out pouts while Y/N laughed, maybe letting them have wine was a bad idea.
"You." Emily pointed at Bella.
"Me?" Bella questioned.
"Yes. How's your vamp?"
"Oh, um- he's nice, I guess."
"No. I need more than nice."
"He's really good at dancing." Bella shrugged.
"I need more." Emily begged.
Maybe Bella should of said yes to that wine.
***
It had been a good four hours and 4 out of 5 of the girls were more than tipsy. The 5th one just laughing her ass off at her friends.
The guys were in for a surprise when they came in. There was flour everywhere. In places where flour shouldn't be.
The girls were sitting in a circle in the kitchen, giggling, waiting on their cookies and brownies and muffins to be done. They got a little over board.
Then the door opened and the girls went silent. Sam walked through the door to be met with flour and baking ingredients all over the table and counters, along with 3 empty bottles of wine. He could hear whispers in the kitchen.
"Maybe if we stay really quiet they won't realize we're here." Emily whispered. The other girls giggling. "Shhhhh."
Sam peered over into the kitchen, watching the five girls huddle down, not noticing he was there. Hearing the guys he quieted them letting them look.
Emily peered up seeing the guys watch them causing her to squeak and the other girls to look up.
Each guy had an amused look on his face, watching the girls.
"Welp, grab one." Sam called.
Sam scooped Emily up into his arms, causing her to let out of squeal.
Jared did the same to Kim, and Jacob to Bella. Seth grabbed his sister, and Paul grabbed Y/N.
"Paul, wait, I have to tell you something" Y/N said. "I'm not drunk. I can't even drink."
He took the girl and sat her down outside. She stood in front of him, and he gave her a look to continue.
Hearing loud noises coming from the house, they both looked over only to see all four girls watching them with wide grins on their faces.
"What is happening?" Paul asked, with a confused smile.
In the background you could hear the girls screaming with excitement.
"Here goes nothing. Paul..."
"Yes."
"I'm pregnant."
Paul's face was pure shock, all the girls in the background screaming and cheering.
"We're gonna have a baby?"
"Yeah. We're gonna have a baby. It's why I've been getting bigger, as Jacob so kindly reminds me."
"I'll kill him if you want me to."
"I know you would."
"I have a question."
"Shoot."
"Why is the leech lover here?"
"I invited her. She's actually really nice. I get why Jacob likes her."
"I can't believe we're going to have a baby."
"Me neither."
"I love you so much."
"I love you too."

So hey.
Last night i checked tumblr and saw a post saying KOSA could be pushed through to getting passed next week from june 21st and i tried to check the kosa tag on twitter to try and verify it. So i went and posted this to try and get the word out.
Tumblr media
It was 2:00am when i posted this screenshot and i was tired and stressed and now i've started to wonder if I jumped the gun a bit. It doesnt seem like theres any appointment made anything related to kosa stuff, i am not entirely sure but the fact is, i made a post based on the word of one other tumblr post and one twitter post. I went full ahead with little information to validate it and its fair to say i fucked up big time.
Tumblr media
I have caused an unnecessary amount of stress and worry over the possibility of KOSA being passed next week, I should have approached after i had some sleep instead of diving headfirst. I fucked up and i let so many people down.
I am well and truly sorry for the trouble I caused. I just wanted to try and fight this bill and others like it to try and protect something thats been a major part of my life for good and bad. Instead i've let you all down.

Era IV - V Ghouls HCs (part 1)
Color shows who made what hc - reblogs are appreciated!
Disclaimer!! We don't call Sodo, well... Sodo. We instead call him Smoke.
Basics
Phantom and Aurora are siblings with Aurora being the older sibling. Back in the Pits since they were ghoul kits they've been inseparable. They were summoned together. Can be a bit chaotic with each other if left alone together, but the moment Swiss joins in they'll all need to be watched like a hawk.
It took a while for Mountain, Smoke, and Aether to warm up to Copia as frontman since they were used to Terzo
Ghoulettes have girls night every week. They blast white girl bangers all night
Ghouls send Copia the ant with bindle photo when he scolds them to get out of trouble (it always works)
While most ghouls like to play fight, Swiss and Aurora do it the most and it’s usually pretty intense so the others avoid with them unless feeling particularly worked up. You would think they were actually trying to kill each other but no
Cirrus, Cumulus, Smoke, and Swiss watch those shitty reality TV shows to point fun at humans and the awful things they do. This is nearly a weekly thing if any of them have time to hang out with free time.
Cumulus and Cirrus always would send messages with at least one emoticon
We know Mountain is the tallest, but the smallest current ghouls are both Cumulus and Aurora at 5’3”. However, they are not the smallest ghouls of modern day Ghost (that title goes to Mist at 4'10" aka three sauces tall.)
Smoke/Dewdrop
He/they
Summoning day is June 21st, 2015
Favorite animal is pangolins because they look like dragons
Transmasc (ftm)
Went by Dewdrop when water ghoul, but changed it to Smoke when he became a fire ghoul
Middle child energy
He still has some fin-like features on him, but not as much as before. Some water ghouls could have scales like fish, so you'd have to squint to see the patches of scales on Smoke. They were larger when he was still water. The fire features kinda override it.
Not mean (unless it's Aether /j), just easily irritated
Would never get angry at any ghoulettes. He drinks respect women juice everyday. He most definitely fears Cirrus sometimes
Sometimes joins the ghoulettes with their girls night just to get away from all the chaos, especially after a rough week
Will sell Aether's non-existent soul for a single corn chip
Ok he actually does care about Aether, but he just has limits to his shenanigans.
Has a huge crush on Aurora, but can't find any way to express it so he just runs away the moment she looks at him. Ran into walls and door frames multiple times because of this.
Since he was transformed into a fire ghoul instead of naturally born like that, the features a fire ghoul would normally have are weaker with him (ex: he doesn’t radiate much heat from his body)
Wants affection and then bites when he’s had enough like a cat
Doesn’t take criticism very well
Aether
He/him
Summoning day is June 24th, 2015
Favorite animal is tigers because of how big they are and goofy they can be at times
One of my three weed smoking girlfriends
Little sibling energy that Smoke the main victim of
One of the most kindest ghouls you'll meet
He has some knowledge in healing and health, so if any of the ghouls, or anyone who is close to him in general, are sick or injured they go straight to Aether
He does that thing where he gets his hands wet and flings his fingers out to get water on Smoke
Helped take care of and watch over ghoul kits back in the Pits
He is still around the Ministry after leaving Ghost and still hangs out with the others when they're not touring.
If he could wear socks in sandals all the time he would
Very sensitive. Cries at those sad dog ads and donates the Ministry’s money
Mountain
He/they
Summoning day is June 19th, 2015
Favorite animal is ram since he has similar horns like them and how tough they are when butting heads with each other
Gentle giant
Has long, dark black hair that is super soft to touch and doesn’t mind the others playing with his hair
Ghoul equivalent to a golden retriever
Like a big brother to Smoke and Aether
Doesn't hunt like the other ghouls. He is able to control his urges, and plus there's already food inside so why bother
Plant dad. Even if you give him a fake plant he'll still love and cherish it. Names them all
Usually will have to stop Smoke from trying to lunge for Aether’s throat
Taller than the average earth ghoul at 7’3”. There were bruises on his face because of walking right into door frames when first summoned. Gets front passenger seat privileges
Keeper of air jail (lifting somebody up if they are causing trouble) Grabbing em by the scruff when the others are fighting
Rain
Any pronouns
Summoning day is July 18th, 2016
Favorite animal is blue marlin because of how fast it can swim and the sword-like appendage on their noses
Likes to keep fishies
Can only sleep when it’s pitch black
Has shark like features (the teeth, tail, sense of smell, etc)
Not shy at all, but just not very social. Possible social anxiety? Yes social anxiety bc projection
Eats the rainbow aquarium rocks like they're Nerds candy.
Mainly sticks around with Mountain since the two have good chemistry.
Gets mad at his own hiccups
Genderfluid
Cumulus
She/ey
Summoning day is April 4th, 2016
Favorite animal is mourning dove because of how they coo
Wine aunt
Anxiety. Not too terrible, but it still is awful
Would bring a dead animal inside after hunting and call it her Girl Dinner™
Literal Disney princess. She could sing and birds would fly to her to sing along
Terrified when first summoned. Glued to Cirrus’ side for the first six months
She is one of the sweetest ghoulettes, but she has quite a bit of weird and creepy pictures and items that will freak people out. Her and Swiss send each other cursed images and videos
Very motherly and protective of the others
Loves to wear fluffy, cloud-like clothing
Link to part 2 will be here soon!

"Huh? Oh yeah, Rigo is something else." Ethan drawled with a disappointed shake of his head. Sometimes, his worry about JJ seemed like he was making mountains out of molehills in comparison to the things the Garcia got up to. "You ready for all the shit hitting the fan when Cruz gets outta lock up? It's been a quiet few years without those two fighting." he asked and then laughed about JJ's good shot at taking down Hunter Cross for what felt like the millionth time. "Sooner or later one of those boys has to win, 'til then I'm gonna keep losing money cause there's no way I'm betting on JJ losing ever." he waved around some of the cash in his hand as his laughter was stopped by Tim's drunken ass hauling through the crowd. "Easy, Cork." he laughed happily, not noticing their friend's sour mood. He sometimes forgot Tim could be either the happiest drunk or one of the meanest. He remembered quickly as he watched the disagreement unfold, Tim getting offended for no real reason. It was the last words that seemed to do it, Corky getting right up into Blaze's face but it still was making Ethan laugh. "You lose a bet, Tim? You need some water, man. C'mon."

location: abandoned barn fight night

"I don't know about you but I think we gotta keep a close eye on Rigo. I always have this horrible feeling he's gonna get a knife out at the last second." Blaze laughed to his friend, clapping Ethan on the back as they moved closer to the ring. "Your boy did good, huh? I couldn't see Cricket anywhere, was gonna go say hi. Suppose the boys, right?" he rambled slightly, taking a swig of beer while they all waited for the next fighters to get ready. "I don't know how I'd feel if Chase ever wanted to get in ther-" Blaze was interrupted by their friend Tim pushing by them and almost knocking over their drinks in the process. Finding it funny, Blaze reached for their friend with a kind hold. "Corky, you need to slow down." he laughed, taking Tim by the shoulder. But, the other man had more than enough to drink, slurring his words in a mumble as he turned around. Get your damn hand off me. Blaze obliged quickly, holding his hand away and laughing again. "Jesus, it's just me. You seeing double or what? You're a real drunk piece of shit right now, Cork." @manybcdthings

I wonder how long the team doing on their own without their leader?
Actually, few months.
Numbuh 442 was decommissioned on June 22nd, 1985. After that, Lou took over as leader, and the group went on with only four members.
In September 1985, it was decided to take Sector Ʌ out of service and put 5 sectors around Australia to make work easy for KND (also because they received a lot of joining applications from there after the whole Fire Goddess accident). So, as the last members got decommissioned, the Sector would cease operation.
On March 21st, 1986, Numbuh 443 was decommissioned, and it was decided that Sector Ʌ would, from that moment on, just be used as training grounds for the other Sectors that would protect Australia in the future; Numbuh 444A would think about plan-making and leader actions, Numbuh 445 would help with weapons and fighting training and Numbuh 444B would train pilots and mappists (Even if at that point mappists were starting to get replaced with new age radars and digital maps. Syd had a hard time trying to tell these kids why orientation was important, but they wouldn't listen).
Finally, we arrived in August 1986, the day that ended everything.
After getting a distress call from Sector Z in America, the trio decided to go investigate by themselves, without reporting to Moonbase or anyone else, where they met Father and the Delightfuls for the first time.
During that night, Numbuh 444A disappeared and when the rest of KND arrived, Syd begged to be decommissioned immediately, without saying what exactly happened. Numbuh 444B was decommissioned 4 months before their 13th birthday.
Charlie was deeply hurt by all of that, from Lou disappearing to Syd refusing to tell even her what happened.
Sector Ʌ was taken out of commission the day after and Numbuh 445 was moved to Moonbase as Head of Decommission until September 21st, 1987, when she turned 13 and was decommissioned.
As for Numbuh 444C, he stayed at the treehouse guarding it until his passing in 1999.
Sector Ʌ was slowly forgotten and is now regarded as a myth by the whole KND organization.

• Battle of Damascus
The Battle of Damascus was a battle between Allied Forced and Vichy French forced and was the final action of the Allied advance on Damascus in Syria during the Syria–Lebanon campaign in World War II.
On June 8th, 1941, troops of the 5th Indian Infantry Brigade Group had crossed the Syrian border from the British Mandate of Palestine to take Quneitra and Deraa with the objective of opening the way for the forces of the 1st Free French Division to advance along the roads from these towns to Damascus. This was one of four attacks planned for the campaign by the Allied commander, General Sir Henry Wilson. Gentforce had been under the temporary command of the commander of the 5th Indian Infantry Brigade, Brigadier Wilfrid Lloyd, since 12 June when Legentilhomme had been wounded. The plan called for the troops of 5th Indian Brigade to advance northwards from their positions at Artouz on the Quneitra–Damascus road across country west of the road towards Mezzeh. Mezzeh was a large village on a junction with the Beirut to Damascus road, some three miles west of Damascus itself. The brigade's supplies, ammunition and the anti-tank element would follow closely behind on the road proper. Meanwhile, the Free French forces would advance along the Kissoué – Damascus road to capture Qadim as a preliminary to entering the Syrian capital, some four miles further north. On June 18th, the Indian troops set out and skirmished their way north. They reached Mezzeh at 04:15. By 05:30, after an hour of fierce hand-to-hand fighting, Mezzeh was captured. However, there was a major problem: the equipment and anti-tank guns travelling up the main road had earlier got ahead of the infantry and run into a Vichy roadblock where most of the vehicles were knocked out. Furthermore, the planned advance by the Free French to Qadim had been delayed, allowing the Vichy defenders to concentrate on the Mezzeh action, putting intense pressure on the Allied position whilst thwarting any attempt to relieve them and bring in vitally needed anti-tank weapons.
On June 19th, Major General John Evetts, commander of the British 6th Infantry Division, arrived to relieve Lloyd and take control of the Allied forces east of Merdjayoun. With the losses suffered by the Indian brigade, he requested that the British 16th Infantry Brigade be detached from the 7th Australian Division and sent to his sector. Three Australian battalions were also detached to Evetts' command: the 2/3rd Machine Gun Battalion and the 2/3rd and 2/5th Infantry Battalions. By nightfall on 19 June, the Allied position at Mezzeh was desperate. Ammunition was running low, no food had been eaten for 24 hours, casualties were severe, and medical supplies were exhausted. During the night (when Vichy attacks were suspended), three men managed to reach Gentforce headquarters with the news of the position in Mezzeh. Early on June 20th, Brigadier Lloyd, having handed over to Evetts, resumed command of the 5th Indian Brigade and sent a force comprising two companies from the 3/1st Punjab Regiment, two companies of French Marines and a battery of artillery to fight its way through to Mezzeh. But they could not blast a way through and they progressed only slowly against determined opposition from French tanks. A Free French attack on Qadim the previous night had failed expensively, so that they were unable to exert pressure on Qadim that morning to draw Vichy forces away from Mezzeh. That night, however, the Free French with support from British anti-tank and anti-aircraft guns and an Australian machine-gun battalion, advanced against light Vichy defences and captured Qadim by the morning of the 21st.
Throughout the evening of June 20-21st, the Australians fought several actions, attacking a series of stone forts overlooking the Mezzeh and the Quneitra road. Elsewhere, a company of Australians attempted to move around the left flank of the Vichy defenders to cut the road running north-west to Beirut and establish a road block in the Barada Gorge. A see-sawing action took place amongst the forts, during which a force of 59 Australians was briefly captured, before a counter-attack early on June 21st freed them and retook the forts. Meanwhile, a 12-hour defensive action held the Barada Gorge to the west, turning back several French attacks that included tanks and armoured cars. During the morning of June 21st, the Australians consolidated their positions around the forts, and in the Barada Gorge and around 11:00, the Vichy French garrison in Damascus surrendered. By noon, the Allied forces were in Damascus and the Vichy forces were retreating west along the Beirut road. With the fall of Damascus, Gentforce accomplished its primary goal. Elsewhere, fighting around Merdjayoun continued until June 24th, when Allied forces eventually captured the town. The fighting between the Vichy forces and the Allies continued throughout the month. Further actions included fighting around Damour and the capture of Beirut.

where: fight night june 21st
with: taner deniz and nora jones @ofwrxth
★・・・・・・★
"Brad!" Taner yelled, trying to stand strong against the current of people. The flash and cry of sirens nearing was enough to send everybody into a panic, people running in all directions like their life depended on it. "Brad!" he shouted again, looking for the stark opposite features anybody would expect a Brad to have. Nora. It was the easiest way to not raise suspicions with her family and just one of the many things they did to keep ticking along without any problems. Thinking about it, she should've been Alice and he could've been Brad but there wasn't much time to think when the barn was erupting into chaos. It was risking a lot because what if he found her as Ethan or JJ did? How would he explain running in the opposite direction of the crowd just to get to her? But that's what he needed to do. What man ran from trying to protect the woman he cared about? He was swept with worry that she was going to be dragged down or pushed aside as it was every man for itself. "Brad!" Another yell as he elbowed through friends and affiliates, and then he saw her and Taner didn't hesitate. He grabbed hold of her hand, pulling her towards him but not without his hands then taking her face gently. "You okay? You good?" he spoke loudly above the noise, leaning slightly to read the expression behind her eyes. "Let's go, I know the others will be fine. I saw Ryan got Tammie." he quickly explained, knowing she'd be worried about her family even after all of the Hell they caused for the two of them.

"Always." Hunter laughed, connecting his fist to Jackson's in a friendly and supportive bump before giving the other man a short nod. "Third time's a charm, right?" he added with a grin, backing away a few paces in preparation. It was no surprise that fights were Hunter's favorite way to have fun, since blood and alcohol were always the focus of them. He was channeling his focus, letting his breathing steady as his gaze sharpened to his opponent. Slowly getting ready to stop JJ from being seen as a friend once their call was made. "You wish, Jones." he joked right back, stretching his neck as he laughed slightly.
Tumblr media
It was the usual shout above voices that became muffled for Hunter as the adrenaline spiked in his veins. No biting, no rings, no knuckledusters, no guns, no... All he could hear was the sharpness of his breaths and all he could see was JJ, standing opposite him like a target. Fight! Hunter reacted within a fraction of a second, grappling hold of the other man in an attempt to have the upper hand. His arm slung around JJ's neck, pulling the Jones down to meet his opposite fist. His strategy was rather simple, to try and wear down JJ as quickly as possible.
ABANDONED BARN + HUNTER CROSS
Tumblr media
jj's eyes flicker through the familiar faces of his brothers and sisters in the reapers, wishing he could see cricket's bright eyes shining back at him and encouraging him. he knows she can't be there after she's made it clear she wants no part in any of it, even if fight nights are just a glorious way to have some fun. it doesn't feel like a real fight to jj and he knows hunter feels the same. the two of them have seen the difference between fighting to survive and fighting for an invisible crown. even if this is the third time they've faced one another in hope that one of them will finally win and put the draw to bed. jj gives a nod to the other man, a friendly bump of fists and then a clap on the shoulder. "best man win?" he offers a grin, taking a few step backwards so he can await their signal to start. "by the way, if you punch me in the dick again i'm gonna start a rumor that you got a big fat crush on me, cross." he goads, knowing it's all part of the fun and sometimes easy to press the other man. @manybcdthings

sky lady late night rambles 🌙🥰
stayed up too late working on a crochet order for my small business
(Yes, I finally did it ! just starting out)
& at the same time, I was also on the phone with my boyfriend (he was telling me gossip from trivia night & funny stories about friends)
so we both got off the phone quickly because I didn't realize what time it was & I think he said real fast "go, go to sleeps, night night, love you, goodnight" so I said it back "ok, talk to you tomorrow, love you goodnight"
then the phone call cut off, so I wasn't sure if he heard me 😬 I was so scared !
but he did ! he heard me & texted me right after "love you too" 🥰
It made me so giggly & happy right before bed.
I'm so glad we finally feel comfortable saying it to each other & now he's been saying it more often without being afraid to express his feelings. 💐❤️
over the weekend, we were talking & he was holding me after I was confiding in him about struggling a bit & he just said "I love you, everything is ok, I'm sorry I didn't say it when I should have."
Tumblr media
It meant so much because I was so worried he didn't feel the same. That was my biggest wish for him to love me back.
Tumblr media
Sat will be our 1 year anniversary. 💌
I can't believe we've seen 4 seasons together, shared so many special moments & made a lot of loving memories.
June 2022, he was just "baseball guy ⚾️" here on the blog ! I saw him for the first time & didn't even know his name.
Tumblr media
Dec 2022, he was "grumpy bb", & at first I thought that he couldn't stand me at all !
Tumblr media
Jan 20th 2023, with a funny nudge from my best friend AR, we talked for the first time & hit it off immediately.
Tumblr media
Jan 21st 2023, my phone broke & I had no way of contacting him. we were supposed to hang out on this day, so I went to the bar in person to wait for him. our best friend, "JJ"wrote his number down on my receipt for me, which I still have & carry with me in my purse wherever I go. The entire thing is faded except for his number & the date on the bottom.
Tumblr media
Jan 29th 2023, we went for a walk in the cold winter & bonded over loving the movie "March of the Wooden Soldiers". We shared our first kiss, & my silly friends witnessed the whole thing. It was hysterical & wonderful at the same time.
Tumblr media
Feb 2023, I gave him a special keychain of a plane that has meaning for us. Months later, he gave me a little blue pin with a plane on it, too.
Tumblr media
Fast Forward >>> to Now 💫
We're pretty much inseparable. Sure, we've had our ups & downs, stupid fights & misunderstandings. No one said this would be easy or perfect. But I feel like we are it for each other & I wouldn't have it any other way.
Tumblr media
Jan 2024, he's my best friend, the love of my life. I feel like the universe led us to one another when we needed each other more than ever.
��️💙

★・・・・・・★
Taner was brimming with confidence as he stepped into the ring. Wolf's name and reputation were daunting, along with the fact he had been inside for five years. Still there was a hint of cockiness in the younger man, thinking age would be an advantage and Taner hadn't quite learned that Wolf's sparkly personality was all part of the trickery at times. Center Hill's very own Loki. He approached at the same time, prepared for the cordial exchange but laughing as Wolf flinched. "Aw, I'm gonna feel bad hurting you. You're someone's grandpa now, right?" he chided without any good nature in the tone. If he could get under Wolf's skin, it was just another tally next to the advantages he thought he had. He scoffed at the childish retort, shaking his head as the crowd jeered with amusement. All he could do next was wait and Taner was patient when he needed to be, eyes shifting through the rows of people and finding Nora's gaze. He didn't nod to her like he wanted, but he raised two fingers to scratch behind his ear briefly. Her sign that he was thinking of her. Then there was no time for sentiments. All Taner could do was focus, ignoring the fact it was all meant to be good fun. He went for it, without holding back but Wolf was a difficult man to try and knock out. The damn Cross would duck and dive like he was made of springs until finally, Taner landed a hit right in the other man's face which sent him backwards into the ropes. "Was that a ticklish spot too?"
Tumblr media
closed starter, fight night wolf and taner @dxrkenedheights
.
These nights are a glorious yet brutal form of entertainment. Wolf has always enjoyed them, immersing himself into something of a gladiator. Give the people a show. He's pacing the ring but not from agitation or anger, he's riling up the crowd. His laugh is beaming as he continues a call and response with the gathered people. He's dotting kisses to his love's foreheads, throwing his fist in the air to incite cheers and a few friendly yet competitive comments about his possible victory against Taner. He then approaches the other man with a large grin, offering out a fist for a civil interaction but as Taner lifts his own, Wolf pretends to jolt from surprise fear before he erupts into laughter. "Ha, kidding. Didn't think I'd be that scared of you, did you?" he goads with as much good nature as one can expect from the eldest Cross. "We're gonna have great fun, Taner. I think it's worth mentioning I'm somewhat ticklish. Right here." he rolls down his shorts just an inch, flicking a finger over his waist line. "If you're brave enough."

AG Presents: The Time Of Day Tour - NCT AG's First Headlining Tour
Tumblr media

Teasers was released on June 12th and 13th. In both, a portal to The Flat sat open in an alley. Two of the members would appear, wave at you, then proceed to close it. Just as the portal shuts, a piece of paper flies out and lands on the ground with the words “Wanna see the show?”

Stage setup
AG's stage consists of the main stage, a ramp and the extended stage. The extended stage is rectangle shaped that's slightly curved making the entire stage look like an umbrella
To the side of the main stage is a tube that is measuring Dream-ergy (explained in the VCR Info section)
On the main stage is a huge circle with a lighting rig surrounding it. Most of it is a screen but in the middle section there are movable screens for the girls to walk on and off stage. Two stationary screens sit on either side of the circle as well
The seats between the main and extended stages were reserved for NCTzen AG - ACE members only
Premise of the show
The audience somehow ended up in The Flat. Their collective dreams of seeing AG brought them there.
The members fight a grey mechanic shark, hell bent on destroying dreams, including yours. This shark can use its mouth to bite portals to other dreams
The girls chase the shark through the different dreams of AGzens. While fighting off this monster they also have to collect enough Dream-ergy to send the audience back to earth. 
Throughout the show, the lights in the stadium will shift between green/blue/white and pink/purple/orange. While the lights are pink/purple, it means the audience is hearing from AG in story. While the lights are green/blue, the audience is hearing from the real members of AG, no storyline involvement
VCR Info
Before the opening VCR a ‘Welcome To The Show’ video greets the audience where the girls go over the rules of the concert as if you were attending a movie or Broadway show.
Opening VCR
Sidenote for this VCR: I'm saying you cause the girls are talking directly to the camera. In a way they are breaking the fourth wall talking to you or the audience. So thats what I mean when I say you.
In the stadium, the lights and screens on the stage show a city background. Filled with people navigating the roads, entering in and out of businesses, driving down the street, etc. As it gets closer to showtime, the stadium lights slowly turn color until the whole venue is engulfed with pink lights. On the screen the cityscape is replaced with a pink swirling vortex that overtakes the cityscape giving the illusion of moving backwards into something.
When it hits showtime, the view is warped as you start to spin around. Then, you're shot out of the other side onto a new planet. The grass is pink, floating platforms of silver suspended in the air, bouncy up and down. Green, blue, purple and pink blobs of goo recreate clouds. the corner of the screen has coordinates and the planet's name, The Flat. 
Suddenly, an explosion goes off. The view whips around to a battle between four girls and a huge mechanical shark. One of the girls is swatted away by the sharks fin. She flies through the air landing right in front of you. Groaning, she rolls over and sits up on her knees. The girl turns toward you and you recognize its Hannah.
Hannah looks at you, puzzled and concerned, “You’re not supposed to be here." Hannah helps you stand "That shark can create portals to different universes. If you were to get sucked into one, we might not be able to find you.” Hannah alerts the other girls of your presence, telling them to watch out for you. “Alright we can’t send you back right now but stay close and stay low.” 
You follow Hannah as she joins the fight once again. Just as the girls start to get the upper hand. The monster roars, snapping its teeth together. Aurora darts away, narrowly missing her arm getting chomped. A portal opens behind you and AG. You and the members are pulled into the swirling blue vortex. Placed in a different universe, the girls are now in their first costumes for the concert. A staff member pops in, letting AG know they have five minutes until showtimes. 
Moxy notices you swaying back and forth and asks "Are you okay?". AG tries to go back but their powers aren't working. Juno figures until they get more dream-ergy(energy from dreams) they can't jump through the necessary portals to get back to The Flat and the monster. "There's no way we can open a portal that big without Naevis' help. And she's MIA."
AG asks you to help them collect Dream-ergy so they can get you and themselves back to The Flat. In order to start collecting Dream-ergy, AG must insert themselves into the dream fully. The girls inform you they won’t notice you until they pull themselves out of the dream. "We won't be able to talk to you anymore once were in." "Don't be scared, If you stay close we'll know you're there."
The members close their eyes. In a flash the girls are fully settled into the dream, not even acknowledging you anymore. "What are we waiting for? It's Showtime!!" From there, you follow them as they walk from their dressing room through the halls of the venue. They pick up jackets, bracelets, and microphones on the way to the stage. On the side screens, a new VCR plays, introducing the girls as they walk through the giant portal like entrance in the middle of the stage to start the show.
Young and Proud VCR (the original song is by Ace Of Base)
In this VCR, AG are in a dance room, dressed how they would before they debut. In no name-brand, baggy clothes.
Throughout the video, instead of seeing themselves as they are. In the refection of the mirror, the girls see themselves in outfits they have worn for past comebacks
The girls chose this as one of their VCR songs because Young and Proud is the first dance they choreographed by themselves.
Take A Hint VCR (the original song is by the Victorious Cast)
The members are at a diner, where there are a bunch of sleazy guys leering at them. For awhile they ignore them until one puts his brave face on, approaches the booth and tries to talk to Hannah. The girls look equally disgusted then they begin to sing.
The members dance around the diner, patrons and workers all joining in. The group of guys are so oblivious, partying along to the song. They don't even realize the girls are singing about them.
Once the song ends, the guy from earlier tries to speak but is interrupted by a car horn. Outside in a jeep, sits several members of NCT. Mark in the drivers seat waves the girls outside. AG says goodbye to the boy and his friends then head out, holding back their laughs until the door closes.
All About Us VCR (the original song is by T.a.T.u)
In this VCR, the girls are dressed like they're Ladies in Bridgerton. The girls have been sent to retrieve a crown that's making this dream into a nightmare
A party is going on and the members take the chance to go retrieve the crown but are stopped by their 'dates'. Their dates whisk them away to the dance floor. The crown is brought out for all the partygoers to see.
To distract the room from the crown, the girls bring their dates to the middle of the ballroom, inviting them to dance. As the song begins, AG sings along drawing the partygoers onto the ballroom floor with them. The choreography looks like it was ripped from a scene in Bridgerton.
During the climax of the song, all the girls are able to escape their dates and descend on the crown. As song ends, the girls are able to toss the crown through a portal and close it. AG escape thru another portal and leave the dream just as their dates reach the stage.
AG's Dates: Moxy = Johnny, Aurora = Renjun, Hannah = Ten, Juno = Jungwoo
Wonder VC (the original song by Emeli Sande)
This VCR shows behind the scenes clips of the girls' process while preparing for this tour.
The unnies filming dance videos for Aurora to watch while she's on the road with Dream
Aurora using every free moment she has with Dream to learn these dances, sometimes with Jisung helping her.
The members shooting the opening VCR. Hannah laughing while they test the system that will pull her across the room.
Aurora and Juno asleep while getting their hair done.
Juno and Moxy swaying in their dresses for the All About Us VCR

The members arriving for the final rehearsals before the show.
The clips are intercut with new video footage of AG singing on top of a skyscraper's Helipad. It's the same helipad that Girls Generation performed Genie on Music Core

Show Ending
Once the girls are backstage again, The Dreamergy Collector whizzes on. It beeps three times before the collected Dreamergy is released. The pink energy flows through the tubes that connect to the portal on stage. The portal powers on and the scene is still on the Flat.
From backstage, the girls sing a verse of The Parting Glass as the lights in the area turn from pink to green and the portal takes the audience back to the real world
Of all the money that e'er I had I spent it in good company (Juno) And all the harm that e'er I've done Alas, it was to none but me (Hannah) And all I've done for want of wit To memory now, I can't recall (Aurora) So fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be with you all (Moxy, On the word joy, the girls sing in four part harmony)

Extra(s)
Before the Show
Outside the Seoul venue was an area for fans to relax, play and take pictures before the concert starts
At the end of the area was a stage with a screen that played various music videos the members have participated in. SM organized a random play dance for fans on all three days
Near the SM building is a pop-up to celebrate AG's first concert tour. It was called Time Of Day: The Exhibition. In the exhibit, scenes from AG's music videos have been recreated for fans to walk thru. The members costumes for each video are displayed for fans to see up close. At the end is a gift shop where all of AG's albums are available for purchase again
Interesting fact about the pop up, The one album that sold the most copies is tied between Time Of Day (the full album) and Time of Day: Noon
At every show, including those outside of Korea, there is a booth that sells photocards from previous AG albums for any poca collectors
Tour merch is tie dye themed. The colors chosen represent each member’s color. Here is the list of goods being sold: Three T-shirts(one cropped), One long sleeve shirt, Two hoodies (one cropped), a bag, a bandana, a photocard set and a pin set
AG set a dress code for each day of the Seoul Concerts. Day 1 was signature colors. Day 2 was pajama/loungewear. Finally Day 3 was black, white and green.
Songs played before the show starts: Say Ok, Circle Game, Technically Single and Fly. Fans know the concert is about to start when I’ll Be There starts to play
You know that running joke of NCT being friendless outside of their group members. AG can no longer be included in that conversation after the concerts in Seoul.
Who knew all it took to unite the kpop world was Bruno Mars or AG.
One day 1, I swear all of SM was there. Boa, Taeyeon and Hyoyeon came together. Eunhyuk, Leetuck, Donghae and surprisingly Kyuhyun were in attendance. All of Red Velvet and Aespa were there. Taemin and Minho arrived together. Kai even got time off to attend the concert with Baekhyun and Chen
And you already know there was a whole section of seats blocked off for NCT use only. Each day one of the units was in attendance. Day 1 was for 127, Day 2 was WayV's turn and finally on day 3 was for Dream
On days 2 and 3, idols from all over the industry came to support the girls. Stray Kids, WJSN, Seventeen, Ateez, Xdinary Heroes, Treasure, Itzy, Kepler, BB Girls, Loona, Hyolyn, Tiffany and Seohyun. I could go on.
The biggest surprise was the appearance of Jungkook, Jimin and Taehyung of BTS. The screams that erupted from Armyzen's in the crowd were deafening. This was by far the biggest talking point on twitter. All netizens wanted to know how this friendship came to be.
It was revealed on one of the dancers Instagram's that the girls and their dancers play musical statues to loosen up before a performance.
Showtime!!
When the girls walked out of the portal for the first time, The crowd went BANANAS!! On day 1, Hannah had visible tears in her eyes. Weirdly, the girls stood at the top of the ramp soaking in the cheers from the fans before the music kicked in
The show director posted on Instagram that she gave AG fifteen extra seconds to feel the moment before starting the show
For Juno, this was her first concert. Reasonably she was in awe. At times, fans caught her just smiling out into the crowd with the most joyful expression
As soon as they reached the first Mnet, the girls were crawling to the places. Moxy even said "Whoever thought it was a good idea to put all our dance heavy songs in the beginning...we gotta talk."
The crowd couldn't get enough of the solo/duet section. Neither of the duet tracks had been performed before so the nerves were quiet high with the girls.
Moxy and Juno's Be There choreography was a sight to behold. At every turn, it looked like one member could fall only for the other to catch them. Creating a dance the fit the tone of the song perfectly
The dance for Let Me Move You was so much fun. Hannah and Aurora couldn't stop smiling the whole time. Fans later found out Moxy and Hannah choreographed the dance with the help of Bada Lee
Each of the girls solo performances proved their talents to fans across the world. Each girl never being swallowed by the stage. Not the slightest bit afraid to stand alone and sing. Moxy's solo stage is the only one fans had seen before so everyone in the stadium were excited to see Juno, Hannah and Aurora murder the stage
Juno's stage was the cutest. While simple, History's dance really showed the singers improvements. Juno danced with a male dancer telling story of the song
The On + Off stage was beautiful. The entire stage and venue was bathed in white lights. Aurora was seated on the floor, knees bent and arms wrapped around them, while dancers filled the stage and worked around her. At different times, the dancers would physically pull her to different spots. Only for Aurora to assume her previous position again. Fans called the performance powerful. A testament to Aurora's talent a performer
Hannah had the fans in a chokehold with her sexy performance of Let Me Get Me. Hannah had all female dancers with her. The most iconic moment was Hannah stopping the music after the first chorus, strutting down the ramp then dropping to the floor one leg out ala The Boys by GG
A fan favorite set was the girl group covers. Fans could get enough of how AG performed Genie. The members sang the song acapella. Dropping the back track in favor of letting their true voices shine through.
AG made it a point to give their dancers a moment of their own to show off their greatness. At every show, during Do It Like This, three different dancers got a chance to freestyle before the girls came back out to the stage.
Once the members boarded the carts during Liberty Walk, both carts make it a point to stop in front of the disabled section and give those fans a special moment
Luckily, no fans were harmed when the signed bouncy balls started being thrown.
Future Starts Now is a dance-pop song encouraging fans to go out and conquer the world. The message and title fit AG perfectly. At this point in their careers, their ready to close this book and start a new one, ready to take the world by storm. AG were having fun with the choreography. AGzen's said it felt like a Girls Generation choreography but AG-ified.
SLAP got new choreo shocking everyone. The move were matured, matching the growth AG have made in the past four years. The chorus dance still kept some moves but changed others, mixing the old and new into something different but welcome.
Fireworks were popped during Coloring Outside The Lines, painting the night sky. During Moxy's bridge part, fans could hear the emotions running thru the leader. The tears she held back.
Concertgoers let other fans who were attending the concert to stick around for the shows special ending. On day 1, a ton of fans missed the girls singing them home and wishing them safe travels.
During Day 2 and 3, the girls relaxed more, enjoying the moment. This was their first concert tour. the tour director posted a video of herself reminding the girls that concerts like this should be about making memories. They already know the show from top to bottom, it was time to have fun. Cause the fans have more fun when they do.
AG kept their composure during the ending mnet's on day 1 and 2. The floodgates opened during day 3
"When I left Hawaii, my dad didn't want me to go. He wanted me to stay, go to college there. I never understood what he was afraid of but I guess I won't know until I have my own kids. I think what sold the deal for him was when I said "I'm not leaving our 'ohana. I finding a new one." Now, my dad is here. First time he's every left the island and he got to met my new 'ohana. I got to tell him this is my family. We're broken but still good." Hannah
At that all the girls started crying. Moxy was wailing, "What the hell, Hannah! You can't just quote Lilo and Stitch at us!"
"I got in a huge fight with my brother the day I left Huston. I didn't understand why he didn't believe in me, in my talent. But...it wasn't that. He's been burned by this industry before. He just didn't want the same to happen to me. I think that's why I worked so hard to prove everyone, even myself, wrong.
I used to look up at the sky and beg for my own group. My own unit. I haven't done that in a long time because I realized......this is my group. This is my unit. AG is mine....and I promise to continue to give my 300% to making us a success." Juno
Aurora was silent for a moment before she started speaking
"I didn't know I'd feel the way I do right now. Standing here. Mark coming back, releasing two full albums then going on tour as seven felt like triumph. Like the boat we were on got past the rough water and we're finally sailing free." "This....feels like.......relief. In the best way. I don't know about unnies but for some reason the voice in back my head always told me this is temporary. This won't last. That while i gained security for one, i'm gonna lose the other in turn. Over the past three days, that voice finally went away. For the first time, I feel like this could last. This could stand the test of time and change. We plan to be around for a long time. Will you stick with us?.......Yeah? Good."
"You know....I thought I knew what I was going to say. But it all just escaped me. (long pause) I don't want to make you guys upset but this is whats weighing on me to tell you. There have been times when the girls and I will get ready for a show or a performance and think 'this is when it all goes wrong' or 'this is it.....for us' or even 'this time...they won't be there. This time they won't scream'. And every time I'm proven wrong. Every time we have to take ourselves out of that feeling because it doesn't matter if there's thousands of you or one of you. (Long pause) AG....exists....because...of you. We are standing here because of you. And I...We can't thank you enough. Thank you for wanting us. Thank you for accepting us. Thank you for demanding more. Thank you." "I use to pray for my own group of members. But I don't do that anymore. Cause this is my group. NCT is my group. These are my members. I found my place and its with these three women and twenty men. I'm okay" Moxy
On Day 3, after the girls performed Coloring Outside The Lines, the lights went down and a video began to play. The AG Korean Fan Union sent a video for AG to be played on the third day. In the video, the fans thanked AG for their hard work even when fan numbers were few. After the video finished, they turned around to a sea of banners that said "AGzen stand with AG till Liberty"
The girls were already teary eyed but the banner project pushed them over the edge. The day 3 mnet's pushed the fans over the edge. Tears were flowing on both sides.
During the tour, you can really tell how much both sides, AG and fans, care about each other and the success of the group
Moxy ends every show like she ends her vlive’s “Be safe, Be happy, Be healthy and most importantly, Be nice."
Differences between shows
The dress code chosen for the rest of the concerts was black, white and green. London and Toronto were the most coordinated cities. The fans going so far as to assign colors to different sections.
At the Japan shows, the cover songs have been changed to Japanese songs.
For the boy group covers: Gimme Gimme (NCT), Electric Kiss (EXO), Breaking News (SHINee), Opera (SuJu), Mirotic (TVXQ)
For the girl group covers: MASAYUME Chasing (BoA), Galaxy Supernova (SNSD), 4 Walls (F(x)), Wildside (Red Velvet), Black Mamba (Aespa)
For the Japan concert, AG released a debut mini album called Time Of Day: 時間 (Jikan, Time in Japanese). The album included five songs: four previously released and one new.
The new song is called COWBOY(by F(x)). Along with the mini album, a mv for COWBOY was released where the members are coaching a girl on how to win a boys heart, by being herself. In the setlist, COWBOY is performed between Do It Like This and Liberty Walk
The other four tracks are songs rerecorded in Japanese. SM looked at the Japan charting info to determine which ones would be translated and rerecordd. Those songs are: Breakout, Hit Me Up, Shut Up and Dance, Our Time Is Here.
Aurora was strangely emotional at the London shows. She didn't even cry at the shows in Seoul. But in London, fans were shocked when tears spilled out during her final mnet.
Later, in the London vlog, it was shown that Aurora's paternal family were all at the show. In a tearjerking moment, Aurora was embraced by her grandmother, someone she hasn't see in years.
During the U.S shoes, Future Starts Now and Something Like A Party are performed in English
While in Chicago, AG performed on the last day of Lollapalooza. They were on the BMI stage at 7:30-8:45. They didn't prepare anything special because of the tour but the girls packed a TON of songs into their time slot.
While Hannah's parents came to the Seoul show with all of AG parents, at the L.A show they brought Hannah's younger sisters to the show. The fans were so nice to them, giving them freebies and conversing with them.
After the show, The AG twitter account posted a video of the three sister embracing, tears on all their faces.
AG were unable to attend KCON in a performance capacity. They did hold a fansign hosted by hello82, though.
One fan asked if they watched WayV or Taeyong’s performance. Hannah revealed they had their manager screen record both sets so they could watch it back on the plane ride to LAX.
Taeyong and WayV attended AG’s last show in California. After the show, the members came backstage. Taeyong gave a speech to the girls, congratulating them on finishing the U.S. leg of the tour. Camera’s for AG’s instagram account filmed a part of the speech and posted it on their stories.
“I cannot express how proud I am of you four. You’ve grown as women and professionals. You all are blossoming before my eyes and the pride I feel every time I see you walk on stage is overwhelming.”
All the members of NCT flew back to Korea together, since the next week was NCT Nation
U.S fans put together another banner project for the second show in LA. This time, the fans used the video to congratulate AG on their achievements up till this point including selling out each stop in the U.S. leg of the tour.
At each of the girl's hometowns, Chicago, Houston, New York and California (for Hannah cause getting to Hawaii would be a logistics nightmare), management chose 25 attendees to come back stage and meet the girls in a private meet-n-greet. No filming was allowed but fans did get professional photos sent to them after the US leg finished.
While in Canada, the girls called Mark during their final mnet so he could greet the Canadian fans.
In Latin America, the girls perform a cover of Celoso by Lele Pons in full Spanish. Celoso was performed after Future Starts Now. On top of that, they changed Suju's Black Suit to Suju's Lo Siento in the boy group cover section
Online Tour Content
In every city the girls filmed vlogs of what they get up to while on tour. All of the highest viewed vlogs were in their respective hometowns.
Moxy's America food tour returned for another season. This time instead of tacos, the girls ate pizza at local pizzerias suggested by fans.
At the end of the tour, AG released a special tour video of Cannonball which edited together all the best clips of the members performing the song across all the tour stops (think Ateez's video for Dancing Like Butterfly Wings)
Two shows came out in conjunction with AG’s tour. One from Mnet and the other from Disney+.
Mnet’s show was called AG 도전 (Challenge in Korean)
The premise of the show: AG are known as FFI or Fearless Female Idols. All AG members are a part of NCT, a predominantly male idol group, for a reason. They face the challenge of being female idols in male groups every day and they conquer it every time.
Over each episode, ten in total, AG has a chance to win $500. The money will go towards AG’s end of tour trip to an unknown location. 
Every episode will have a main subject to focus on and it could be anyone. Each episode has two challenges each worth $250. The first challenge is The Game. AG have to answer questions about their subject then win in a game their subject has played before.
If they pass, AG picks one of the subject's songs to perform. If they fail, the staff chooses.
The Second challenge is The Performance. AG has to perform the song chosen. If the staff chose the song, AG has to face an extra challenge of the staffs choosing. AG winning the last $250 isn't up to the staff though. It's up to their fans and the subject themselves. 
Each performance is dropped online for the fans to see. By a voting system, if they like it, AG wins $125. The other $125 is won by the subject of the week also voting in AG’s favor. 
In each episode, the are also surprise challenges that AG filmed while preparing for tour that can help or hinder their performance depending on if they win or lose 
An episode debuts after each tour stop on the U.S. leg of AG’s tour until they finish in Vancouver.
The show ends in a special episode where their vacation destination is revealed to the girls, Disney World
In a random order here are some of the subjects that will be featured: BTS, Everglow, Girls Generation, Ateez, EXO, LE SSERAFIM
The second show isn’t a show at all, Its a documentary on Disney+ about AG in conjunction with their tour. Part 1 has interviews about the creation of AG and videos of the girls preparing for the concert. Part 2 is the filmed Seoul day 2 concert.
Encore Show in Seoul
The encore is called AG Presents A New Day: Encore in Seoul
The girls prepare alot of changes for this concert.
The premise of these shows is the dream-eating Shark is back and is causing the fans to have nightmares. Now AG has come back to fight the monster off and restore your dreams.
The show has a loose theme of moving on. Remembering the past and stepping into the future.
Netizens were freaking out after the first day because AG changed the WHOLE SETLIST almost
Fan's in attendance had no idea what was going on. They weren't prepared at all.
AG had a whole new opening set, extended stage set, new solo songs, new covers for and a new finale. Needless to say, AGzen's were FED!!!
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
But to get more, your gonna have to wait for the next post. I came up with wayyy too many ideas for the encore concert. I figured why waste them when i can make another post and fully flesh them out so look forward to the part 2 of AG's tour. I'm planning on posting some tweet's about the shows and maybe a bit of tour!angst!! As always that you for reading and i hope you enjoy!! ~ Author Izzy
