AUGUST/SEPTEMBER UPDATE

Heya everybody! We’re back for a double episode of, “The Monthly Jayce Myles Comics Updates”! The reason why August wasn’t fulfilled like normal was due to college and how busy I immediately got when entering in, which is what I figured would happen so I’m not too surprised with it to be honest. I took some time in order for me to make a fulfilling update instead of doing a rushed one to pump out yk? We’re now gonna get to the updates and bonus content I’m gonna show.

Buckle your seat belts, close your eyes and take your hands off the wheel cuz this is gonna be a ride~

THE COMIC

(OFFICIAL W.I.P: PAGES 28 & 31)

The comic’s gotten slower due to college, however, I really needed a break from it in general so I could prioritize my personal life and also refresh myself on drawing what I want to instead of rushing my age physically and turn 78 years old when I haven’t even reached 20 yet. Nothing much to say but showing the w.i.ps because of the slower progress, it’s getting there though. We got to 30 pages! Which means that the first section is sketched out (calculated to be approximately a fourth of the full chapter done, it could go lower or higher in the numbers depending on what I want/vision). I’m hella proud for getting 30 of them pages done honestly. A huge accomplishment for doing this story for a long while.

Ya’ll don’t really know, but I am indeed changing things here and there about the story where I’m shifting small details, doing redesigns, and reboots with other small things overall. I would be honest and say that’s where I’m progressing the most and not the debut chapter, I’m able to have a clearer vision of the story in my head and on paper when doing future chapters yk? I won’t go into details about redesigns or those details being changed since they’re hella spoilerish and a bit unnecessary considering that the JMC hasn’t even debuted yet. Ya’ll will get those details later when the comic functions and I will reveal more in future updates!

Also, last month Jae, no you haven’t drawn the turtles yet. However, we’re close to their debut for the chapter so keep strong! You’re doing great! :3

BONUS CONTENT: Jayce Myles Over The Years

Many of you know that Jayce Myles, whose name is in the title of the series, is our protagonist for this ROTTMNT comic! She’s my OC that I’ve had when going through my senior year of high school. We’re gonna be getting into a deep dive with her as a character and how their designs came to be during the process!

This is the first ever drawing of Jayce that I’ve done, the day I made it is so vivid in my head because I was going through it… I was in my Pre Calculus class and I had failed another test after multiple attempts through the school year. My initial idea was to cry (which I did) but then I just started doodling on my phone and I created this drawing, then from there it was history. This was in 2022, not too long ago. I became a Rise fan a couple weeks after the movie came out (which I didn’t know at the time, it was a pure coincidence) and I wanted to create a Rise OC for a while. So that day in Pre-Calc, I was able to take advantage of my mathematical suffering and create my magnum opus (exaggerated). She didn't have a name at the time so it was actually a stand in for me. Jayce got their full name until a couple days later.

EVOLUTION OF JAYCE MYLES

(October 2022- February 2024)

As you all can see, Jayce did indeed have lots of designs and ideas being sketched out while I created her as my official Rise OC. I had ideas for them to have an androgynous look from the start based off of my own self! I knew they were gonna have a Rise comic, but there were ideas for them to originally come from the 2012 TMNT universe with their "serious demeanor". It was quite interesting but there isn't much media of those ideas since they were cut a bit early on.

(Older Renders of Jayce from 2022)

Their signature color looked like it was gonna be this denim blue for quite a while but then I scrapped it cuz I thought it wasn't showing their personality like how I want it to. There was also another scrapped concept where Jayce's demeanor would be more monotone and "soft" (as in a blank slate, which doesn't give her a true personality). It was cut because it made me think that I wasn't giving her the best potential as the protagonist then I should've been giving them. Jayce was more introverted and quiet, but now they're much more expressive and full of personality. Ya'll will see in a more better light when the comic debuts, I'm not holding back with Jayce's personality anymore.

("Issue 1: Graffiti" Panels from page 1. The only page that was completed until the plot got scrapped.)

There were lots of pitches and concepts for the JMC over the years too, where lots of storyboards got drafted and one of the first of those drafts got their first page completed. However, I'm pulled a Richard Williams and kept being like "No, I don't like this" and kept going back to the drawing board. I like to look back on these old drafts especially after seeing the older interactions and how different they're gonna be in the official comics. I for sure was learning over 2023 and 2024...

Now finally, we're gonna touch on the last thing for this update~

JMC'S FINALIZED PILOT (ADDITIONAL CHARACTER)

We are going to talk just a teeny bit about the debut chapter but I'm able to become vague without spoiling too much since lots of the older pitches were scrapped. But yes, this was when I came up with the idea, "What if Jayce had a job?"

That's where the idea of Jayce working at a deli joint came from. Where she would have to get a 9-5 and possibly fired, it was pretty funny when doing the drafts since I never knew how a real deli worked and my dumbass just used my mom's experience at Denny's as referenced (she walked out and quit after almost a year).

Thus, our pilot was born.

You can go read a non canon comic I did that touched on this concept when it was fresh in development right here! [Jayce and Mikey Phone Call] & [Splinter/Randall and Jayce Interaction]

The shop itself was based off of a friend's film back in junior year. He made a FNAF parody called, "Five Nights At Fernando's" and it was such a stupid assignment but that gave me the idea of making use of the dumbass "Fernando's Shop" and make it a reality. So then Fernando's Taco Shop was created and we had the shop Jayce worked at. We already talked a bit about Archie and his deal in the first JMC Monthly Update and I can't say anymore due to spoilers but he was also involved of the creation of the pilot.

The older pitches had a cashier or a manager be like some NPC ahh character that never was gonna be brought up ever again but something in me thought it would be a cute idea to create an actual character for this manager that wasn't a stupid bossy ass hoe. It was very sweet in the drafts so I thought I could create more with that concept in mind.

Introducing: Rogelio Andazola!

(Rogelio Andazola Evolution: 2022-2023 | Still Not Showing The Finalized.)

His design is one that is the most consistent when compared to the rest of the roster, I guess that I hit the nail with his because I couldn't imagine him any different. There are only minor changes like his gray strands disappearing (bro reverse aged) and his facial expressions are much more expressive after I played around during the soft reboot. Once again (and as annoying as it is), you will all see where I'm coming from when the debut chapter releases! Rogelio as a character has also altered his personality, he's based off of my grandpa, can't wait to show you how that comes into play in the story!

Thank you all so much for sticking around for this very heavy update! I worked way too much for the photos to be sent on here and dug up lots of my old art in order for this to become a reality! It was actually insane that I kept lots of it instead of making it turn into lost media, I'm happy I got to show lots of it instead of having to make it the fuck up by memory (which I wouldn't have done in the first place and is an exaggeration). The comic is slaying in the runway and I'm working on it here and there at my own pace. Maybe next time I can finally show ya'll the turtles in the next W.I.P in the comic section. Have an amazing day/night everyone and we're on the way to victory!

November Horoscope Tarot.

All readings are alleged and for entertainment purposes only. Please take them with a grain of salt.

Aries: 7 of wands, page of swords, 2 of wands ace of wands - there are a lot of things that will come into your life Aries and you are going to face them head on. There may be something that calls your attention more than any other and you’re unsure if you should go ahead with this or not; this decision is going to be something that will open new doors for you and give you a fresh start. You do want to think over the good and the bad of taking on this task; you have more than enough capability to tackle these things but be mindful of where these decisions will take you.

Oracle card: hurtful events - in the past this particular decision may have come up or you may have experienced something similar to whatever this is and it failed. Do not look on that previous decision as evidence of this being a mistake. With this card I’m sensing now with this card the decision may be whether or not to enter a relationship.

Song: Sarah by starship

Taurus: 10 of pentacles reversed, ace of pentacles reversed, 8 of swords reversed - things have been rough dear Taurus. Some poor decisions have been made that are causing you great pain. Because of this decision you have begun to feel isolated from others, but things are going to get better. This is that start of the road to recovery; it’s a long one but you’re starting to see what happened that caused this time in your life and know now what to do in order to make things right. Start small and try to mend these problems the best you can.

Oracle card: be here now - you may be going over and over what happened but don’t do that to yourself Taurus. You need to do your best to try and move on from this situation and try and rejoin the world to fully heal.

Song: leather and lace by Stevie Nicks and Don Henley

Gemini: 3 of pentacles, the chariot reversed, the star - you are working hard to achieve a particular goal Gemini. You have the ambition and the passion but there have been some issues regarding how to approach this project. It’s halted you because you can’t quite figure out which way you should do this; try to look at every angle and not just the single way you may have at first. I see this may be a dream you have wanted for a long time; just remember if one path is closed there is always another.

Oracle card: clear the path - things have been put in your way to block you from this journey. While that original route is seemingly unattainable, there is another path you have yet to see. Keep working to reach this goal and know that what’s meant to be will find a way to you.

Song: 5 years time by Noah and the Whale

Cancer: 4 of pentacles reversed, the hierophant reversed, 2 of swords reversed - you are letting go of something that has been holding you back for a long time dear cancer. This is a scary decision because you put faith in whatever this was and now you’re making a decision to let things end. Doing this will give you a new perspective; if this is a breakup you may see that your partner was not all they seemed to be. If it’s a job that you’re leaving you may realize how poorly treated you were and so forth. This is a difficult decision but in the end it’s for the best and you will finally be free of this weight.

Oracle card: worthy goal - get out and work on you. Whatever has been hurting you, cancer now that you will cut ties it’s time to focus on yourself. Take some time to figure out what you want in life and also just take time to treat yourself with love and kindness.

Song: Crossroads by Tracy Chapman

Leo: king of swords reversed, the hermit, 9 of cups reversed, page of cups, 4 of swords reversed, the devil reversed - things have been rough Leo. It seems someone may have said some terrible things or severely hurt you in a way that you’re having a hard time letting go of it. Because of this you have closed yourself off from others and feel like life just sucks and everything is terrible. Life doesn’t suck but this incident has made you see this individual for who they really are and while it hurts you will be better; for now it’s just about slow healing and recovering from the pain. This will of course take a long time but in the end this person revealed their true colors and you will see how much better off you are without them in your life.

Oracle card: right track - this person or situation that backfired is still a touchy subject but Leo it’s what was meant to happen. For now you may see things as the world is cruel for what has happened but years from now you will see this as the moment it all changes and helped you find the right path to take. Whatever has hurt you; it’s going to lead you to a better destination.

Song: Hey Porter by Johnny Cash

Virgo: Queen of pentacles, ace of cups reversed, 6 of wands, the world - you are known to always be the most practical in any situation Virgo and while recently there may have been some setbacks in life you’re going to overcome them. These delays and issues are temporary and the success for you will greatly outweigh the problems. You can expect this month to start seeing signs of things getting better for you and your life. These great signs will keep coming in for you too.

Oracle card: roots of stability - again always the most grounded of any of us Virgo. You are also starting to make decisions for your and as above some things may have interfered but you are going to start having better luck here soon. Whatever you were looking to achieve for your future may be possible this month and the outcome better than the original plan.

Song: Far Horizons from Elder Scrolls Skyrim by Jeremy Soule

Libra: king of pentacles, the moon reversed, 3 of cups - you have been working hard to achieve something and feel it is time to celebrate this triumph with your friends; you’re happy to have finally finished this journey of whatever you were working on. This can be a project years in the making or perhaps a relationship that you spent too much time on and have seen the truth of who that person was and now walk away a much happier and better person.

Oracle card: seed of potential - it is a time to grow Libra. You have spent time and energy on a lot of things that have halted you in the past; now is the time to try and work on you. Make mindful decisions and surround yourself with people who actually will make you feel like a better person.

Song: Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

Scorpio: 3 of swords, 9 of wands, the magician - you have been deeply hurt Scorpio. You may have just gotten out of a relationship or a friendship has broken apart; this has caused you to feel worried and doubt yourself in a way you never have before. This person may have said some hurtful things to you but none of what was said is true in any way. You may worry about moving forward and going on but things are going to get better; you have to believe in yourself and focus on keeping the faith that while this person didn’t work out in your life it doesn’t mean you are not worthy of love and affection.

Oracle card: labyrinth of choices, hidden keys - there are a lot of things out there in life and a lot of people too; while this one is now gone for you this doesn’t mean that someone better won’t come along. Right now you are seeing things as what they told you, but you will soon see the truth and that this person was all kinds of wrong. You will heal Scorpio, it’s hard for now but there are a lot of people who want to have you in their life and one will make it known.

Song: Ready for it by Taylor Swift

Sagittarius: the lovers reversed, knight of swords, 9 of pentacles reversed, 2 of pentacles reversed, queen of swords - you may have been jilted by someone you thought was different from the rest. This person seemed too good to be true and that’s exactly what they were. It’s caused you some difficulties with getting back on track with things at hand and has made you feel like all is lost. But the queen of swords is a protection card and to me it shows you will get through this like the true badass you are. It hurts to be deceived by someone we trusted with our heart but Sagittarius you have so much strength and courage you will get through this; it’s not easy now but those around you will keep you safe.

Oracle card: scales of balance - this time has caused you to focus on the person rather than other things in your life. Now is a time to get back on track and try to get organized. Find the right way to get life as normal as it was before this person entered it; while it’ll never be the same again finding a way to get back to a similar place is better than wallowing in self pity.

Song: Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream) by The Icicle Works

Capricorn: 6 of cups reversed, Queen of cups reversed, the tower reversed - you may have recently taken off the rose colored glasses about something that was particularly important to you at a time. It’s made you bitter and angry to see the truth of the matter and you’re holding on to these feelings deeply. But staying this way instead of letting things go is only going to worsen the situation Capricorn. If this is a work problem and a matter that bothers you it may be best to address it now; if it’s an issues between your inner circle or family you may need to speak up. The longer you wait the worse things will get for you especially; it may make you upset that this happened and you feel like it will hurt others to know but you cannot carry this weight alone and expect it to just go away. If you feel something isn’t right speak up.

Oracle card: on your own - this issues has opened your eyes and while I did mention not to keep these feelings locked away, it may be best to think of how to approach this. Take some time to figure things out and what you can do to make things easier for you; finding out the truth is never easy and sometimes it’s best to take a little bit of time for ourselves to heal before we let others know what’s happened.

Song: Black Diamond by Stratovarius

Aquarius: 4 of cups reversed, ace of swords reversed, 5 of wands reversed, 5 of swords reversed - you may be feeling stuck in a situation or just over something entirely. Yet despite these feeling you haven’t addressed your feelings towards the group and made it known that you can’t keep kidding yourself about this. You have been pretending for so long but you only did so to avoid issues with the rest of those around you. Just tell everyone or this person that you can’t keep going at this rate Aquarius. If something doesn’t motivate you and makes feel stagnant it’s okay to say so; if you feel stuck in a situation and never felt okay to say anything it’s time to speak out. Doing this will finally free you from this burden you’ve carried for a while and you have a sense of peace that has been lacking since you started this journey.

Oracle card: wise counsel - concerning this issues above; it’s time to speak to someone who knows what they’re talking about. If this is a job problem you may need to go to a boss to let them know you wish to find a different area to work. If it’s a relationship problem maybe a friend can help you figure things out or a parent. If you’re unhappy Aquarius you don’t need to pretend for the world; it’s not fair to yourself and others to keep up a charade like this.

Song: Love will Tear us Apart by Joy Division

Pisces: king of wands reversed, king of cups reversed, 10 of wands reversed the fool - this month will definitely be a tough one. You are going to have a lot of distrust towards those around you Pisces; someone may have let it be known that you have a two face friend or you feel like things are just not going well. This has filled you with a lot of anxiety about the future, your friends your relationships and just everything. Living in fear and trying to control everything around you is only going to cause more harm to you Pisces. You’re taking on too many problems and some of which are not even real issues in your life. Take a moment and look at things from another perspective. There is a lot of things being told to you that are not fact and it’s time to see what is real and what isn’t; things are not all black and white and you will be seeing that this month.

Oracle card: new worlds - this is a time for new beginnings for you Pisces; when one door closes another opens. This month you may be feeling like things are not going your way but that’s because you’re looking at the old way of your life. Circumstances and people have changed for you and this is a time to notice that. Maybe what used to be isn’t going to work for you anymore.

Song: Be okay by Oh Honey.

A/N1: My submission for @choicesflashfics @jerzwriter Week #49, Prompt 1- “You take my breath away every time I see you.” 

The King’s chamber was illuminated only by the soft light of the full moon where the King and Queen lay together. Riley was fast asleep, her head resting on Liam’s chest, her very pregnant belly snuggled safely against his side. Liam looked over at his sleeping wife, his heart swelling with love for her and their sons. In three short weeks, his family will grow to five; that time coming very quickly now.

Cordonian Royal Palace

He lay awake; sleep eluding him again for another night. Mentally organizing his schedule for the upcoming month, his thoughts eventually returned to that conversation with Drake that they had on the beach the day before. His confession...

‘Watching you with Brooks, all these years... I want that too.’ 

‘Pretending to be happy is pretty damn exhausting.’ 

Sighing, Liam was pleasantly surprised when he heard a soft voice. 

No one else would have caught it, but Liam did. He ‘read between the lines’ of what Drake had said, like he was remembering a bad dream. Did Drake just admit that he still had feelings for his wife? Were those feelings that he had years ago still present and relevant to him? 

“How long have you been awake?” Riley whispered. 

He kissed her forehead and placed his hand on her baby bump. Stroking her belly, he could feel the soft kicks under his palm.

“Not long, love” he murmerred.

“What are you thinking about?” Liam hesitated before answering. 

Riley turning her head to look up at him, “you think too much sometimes.” 

“A conversation that I had. I am not quite sure if it was real or if it was a daydream.” Liam kept his answer opaque on purpose, not wanting to divulge too much detail to her. 

Liam chuckled, “Are you complaining?” 

“Never,” she replied, yawning. “I love you,” she added sleepily. 

His body relaxed, as he closed his eyes, “I love you more.” he murmured, tightening his arm around her protectively. 

Cordonian Palace Ballroom 

The Ballroom was filled with guests awaiting the King’s announcement scheduled for later in the evening. 

Royalty from neighboring kingdoms, nobility, politicians, and ambassadors from allied countries came from long and short distances to partake in the black-tie festivities. Music filled the air as waitstaff circulated amongst the crowd with glasses of wine and flutes of champagne. 

“I’m glad you decided to attend this event with me,” Olivia said smiling at Alex. 

“I must be honest with you, Livvie. I usually attend these functions as the enforcer. I am not used to wearing a ‘monkey suit’,” Alex smirked. He seemed to be comfortable among all the guests, nonetheless. 

Olivia grinned back at her partner, but her smile quickly faded when she spotted Amalas and Leo huddled together on the other side of the dance floor. They appeared to be deep in conversation and were not paying any attention to their surroundings.  

Alex noticed Olivia’s expression change. “Everything okay?” he asked with concern. She nodded, trying to force the smile back onto her lips. 

“I thought that Leo was coming on his own tonight.” 

“Liv, that doesn’t mean that he can't talk to anyone once he gets here,” Alex rebutted. Olivia sighed loudly and continued to watch the couple from afar. 

A waiter approached, carrying a tray of hors d’oeuvres. Alex accepted a small sampling as Olivia continued to study the couple without saying another word. Alex shook his head; he knew what was bothering her.   He also wished, he was mistaken.

As the orchestra began to play the first few notes of the Cordonian national anthem, the press began to gather around the dais waiting for the King to enter the ballroom. 

The King’s guard fell into strategic positions when the herald announced the arrival of the Royal family. 

Liam strode up to the lectern that was atop the dais wearing his full military regalia. Riley, walking with Eleanor, joined him and stood next to his side. Regina and Leo stood close by next to the dais. 

The crowd hushed in anticipation. Clearing his throat once before speaking, Liam began, “Good evening, everyone,” he proclaimed. 

“It is my pleasure and honor to welcome you all here tonight. I know many have been waiting patiently for the queen and I to make an official announcement concerning our ‘additions’ to the Royal family.”  Liam turned to wink at Riley.

The ballroom attendees erupted in whoops and cheers. 

Liam acknowledged his delighted guests with a broad smile and waited a few minutes for the accolades to subside. Continuing with, “thank you, thank you!” 

“Ladies and gentlemen, I am delighted to have my princess here to help me....” Liam turned and beamed, chuckling as Ellie clapped her hands with a peal of laughter as her uncle Leo scooped her up and joined his brother. 

“Well, Ellie, what do you think?” Leo asked, smirking at Liam. 

“Daddy, look.” Ellie exclaimed and pointed to a bevy of blue balloons filled with helium that were being released behind the crowd overtop the dance floor. 

“Everyone, our twin boys, our princes, are expected to arrive at the end of this month.” Liam lifted Riley’s hand tenderly to kiss. 

Riley joined Liam as he took her hands and led her to stand beside him at the lectern.  

Thrilled at the excitement, Liam continued once the audience returned their attention back to him.

Liam waited for the crowd to settle down after the announcement. 

The applause was deafening as everyone celebrated. 

After posing for pictures by the press, Liam led Riley to the dance floor as the orchestra began to play the beginning notes of ‘Clair de Lune’. As they danced, it felt like time stood still; as guests formed a circle around them, Liam kissed Riley’s hand and placed it atop his chest over his heart as they swayed together in time to the music.  

“It must have something to do with the love of my life in my arms,” Liam simpered. 

“How is it, that.... Liam,” as she smoothed down his lapels, “you take my breath away every time I see you.” 

“Always the charmer, Your Majesty." Riley whispered, kissing his lips sweetly. 

*** 

Drake held Delaney close to his chest as they watched the King and Queen move together in the center of the dance floor. 

“They look so perfect together,” Delaney sighed. Her voice was laced with envy. 

“Don’t worry, you’ll find someone special someday.” Drake answered sarcastically. 

Delaney laughed. “That’s so easy for you to say.” Slapping his arm.

Drake grinned, “you'are damn straight, Leigh. When I first met you, I had no idea what my future would hold. You showed me things that I had only dreamed of having with someone. … and I have treasured every minute of your love.”  

 Growling, he leaned over and kissed her fiercely on the lips. Just as Riley and Liam walked past them. Delaney noticed the look on Drake’s face when he locked eyes with Riley. It gave her an uneasy feeling. He seemed to be lost in thought.  

Smiling playfully at him, Delaney asked in jest, “I’m in love with you too?"  

She frowned. “Something wrong?” 

His eyes shifted away from Riley, and he shook his head. 

“No, nothing at all.”  

But he didn’t fool her. Delaney, now was positive that her concerns were justified, stepped back. 

“Good evening, you two.” Riley beamed as she turned towards Delaney and Drake.  

“You two are getting married! Congratulations...I am so happy for you both.” Riley put her arm around her shoulder for a side hug.

“Thank you so much,” Delaney replied, hugging Riley in return. 

“Yes, congratulations you two,” Liam reached over to kiss Delaney’s cheek. 

“I am impressed, Walker.” Riley snickered as she hugged her friend.  

“Wow, settling down and saying goodbye to the bachelor life.” Liam smirked, shaking Drake's hand.

“Who would have thought,” Riley chuckled. 

“Yeah, yeah, Brooks, get your shots in now.” Drake responded, not making eye contact. 

Interrogation Room A, Interpol Headquarters, Lyon, France 

Lena sat back on her chair with her hands folded in her lap. She was flanked by two men in dark suits. One of the men was a middle-aged man with salt and pepper hair. His name was detective Lefebvre, and he had been assigned by Inspector Ryerson to investigate her case. The other man was the head of Psychiatrics and was assigned to conduct an evaluation of her psychological state by King Liam Rys of Cordonia. 

Across the table, sat Lena’s legal defense attorney, assigned to represent her by the Royal estate of Vallenheim. 

Detective Lefebvre cleared his throat. 

“Miss Runarsdottir, I understand you are familiar with the Cordonian Royal family?” 

Lena nodded. “Yes, I have met King Constantine Rys, my father. My stepmother, Queen Sigrid, raised me when my mother Eleanor Rys was murdered. I know of but never met my brother Liam or my stepbrother Leo.” 

“And what do you know about them?” he asked. 

Lena’s mouth went dry. She felt like she was trapped in a nightmare. 

“I don’t have any other information about them,” she lied. 

“Do you mean to tell me that you knew nothing about your brothers even though you were caught outside the buildings they were in this past summer?” 

Lena stared at him unflinching. 

“How did you know where to go?” he asked again. 

“I’m sorry, I can't help you.”  

Lefebvre slammed his fist against the table, making Lena jump in surprise. 

“Don't play with me. You’re either lying or delusional.” 

Lena bit her lip. She sat stoically and kept her emotions hidden. 

“I am not playing around. I have no information.” 

Feeling frustrated, Detective Lefebvre changed his strategy. 

“Miss Runarsdottir, who is Bastien Lykel? 

“Who?” 

“Bastien Lykel,” he repeated. 

Lena’s face paled. “I don’t know anyone named Bastien.” 

“Are you sure?” he pressed. 

“We have CCTV evidence of your conversation with him in the holding cells at the Cordonian Palace.” 

“I-I-” she stammered. 

“You were seen talking to him at least three times before you escaped those holding cells in Cordonia. Is that correct?” 

Again, Lena sat in silence. 

“Choose wisely, Miss Runarsdottir, and answer my questions. What is the nature of your relationship with Bastien Lykel?” 

Lena’s breathing quickened and her hands began to shake. If she told the truth, she was dead.

“Let the records show that Miss Runarsdottir is not cooperative.” 

Cordonian Ballroom 

Leo was speaking to Rashad at the bar when Liam approached after having a debate with an American ambassador. 

“Hey Li, I see you survived your conversation with Smithfield.” Leo smirked as Liam ordered a scotch and shot it back quickly. 

“Barkeep, another round for my brother and I’ll take the same.”  

“Why, thank you Leo.” Liam clapped his back. 

“Where is your beautiful Queen?” 

“Riley is upstairs with Ellie. Being so close to her due date, she needs to be off her feet to rest from tonight’s festivities. She is exhausted.” 

Leo nodded. “Totally understandable, but Li, why are you still down here?” 

“Because I need to talk with you and apologize about the other day.” Liam responded. 

“No apologies needed.  I was being an asshole and you called me out.” Leo grinned. 

“Well, I overreacted. You pressed a nerve when you mentioned father.” 

Leo smirked, “good, because I agree with you and I believe you are ‘right on the money’.  

Liam chuckled, shaking his head. 

“Again, that’s what makes you the better King,” Leo winked 

“I do have information for you." Leo continued. "Amalas gave me an update on Interpol’s case on Lena and Bastien.” 

‘Liam winces slightly at the mention of Lena, but he does not interrupt.’ 

“Lena is being uncooperative when questioned by the detectives. Nice touch, by the way, for assigning a psychiatrist to oversee her testimony.” 

“Well, it’s the least I could do knowing what father did to her, and her future.” 

“’Amalas has uncovered a few suspicious ‘coincidences’, but nothing damning enough’ to help shed light as to what her motives are.” 

“So far, the information that he divulged on the estate of Vallenheim has been verified as true. It was uncovered that he has affiliations with members of the Vallenheim royal guard.” 

“Has there been any progress on Bastien’s involvement?” Liam inquired.

“Director Ryerson has scheduled an official update for Monday morning with me. Apparently, Interpol has uncovered a black ledger. It was 'hidden in plain sight'." 

“Care to join me, Leo?” 

Leo responded, “I will be here.”

Your Mars in Scorpio Horoscope

Mars in Scorpio is like a homecoming for the red planet. Scorpio is Mars-ruled, and this cozy connection creates a harmonious flow of energy. The realms ruled by Mars – passion, power, self-assertion, physical energy, and willpower – are set free in the enigmatic embrace of Scorpio's depths. It's a time when your inner fire burns with purpose, and you're willing to go to great lengths to achieve your goals. However, this transit isn't all sunshine and roses. In Scorpio, Mars dives deep into emotions, making life feel more turbulent compared to the balance-seeking, harmony-loving aims of Libra Season.

Mars in Scorpio: The Depths of Desire and Secrecy

     Mars in Scorpio is a potent and enigmatic transit—the Wednesday Addams of planetary transits—that delves into the deepest desires and motivations of the human psyche. Scorpio is a sign that operates in the shadows, preferring to keep its true intentions concealed beneath layers of mystery. When the fiery planet Mars, which represents our willpower and physical energy, ventures into Scorpio, it's like setting a bonfire beneath those hidden layers, revealing the intensity and tenacity that lie beneath.

     At its core, Mars in Scorpio is about surreptitious ambitions and secret victories. This transit encourages us to tap into our most profound desires and transform them into action. The energies of Scorpio are all about regeneration, and Mars, the planet of action, carries the determination needed to propel these profound transformations.

Themes of Mars in Scorpio:

Intense Desire: Mars in Scorpio awakens profound desires that might have been lurking beneath the surface. These desires aren't casual or fleeting; they're intense, passionate, and often related to deep emotional connections and transformative experiences.

Tenacity: This transit fuels your determination. When you set your sights on a goal, you'll stop at nothing to achieve it. Mars in Scorpio can be a powerful force for overcoming obstacles and persevering through challenges.

Investigation and Research: Scorpio's association with depth and the unseen makes it an excellent time for investigative and research-related pursuits. Whether it's solving a mystery, delving into psychology, or uncovering hidden truths, you'll have the drive and determination to dig deep.

Secretive Power: Mars in Scorpio operates on a more secretive and private level. You may not be overt about your ambitions or the steps you're taking to reach your goals. Instead, you prefer to work behind the scenes, quietly amassing your power and influence.

Transformation: Scorpio is all about regeneration and rebirth, and with Mars's assertive energy, this is a time of personal transformation. Old habits and situations are cast aside, making room for new and more empowered versions of yourself.

September 2024 Horoscope: The Month Ahead

The September 2024 horoscope signals that it's time to change. The planets show it - and you know it. Deep down, this is a key moment...

Before I started writing the September 2024 horoscope, I reminded myself of this month’s major themes by re-reading the forecast for September 2024 that I wrote for the 2024 Big Horoscope. That was published in December 2023, so what did I predict way back then? The major theme I picked up on was a generational shift; that process (one way or another) reaches a conclusion this month. There is…

Sagittarius New Moon (20°) for the Rising Signs

December 12, 2023

I feel like this new lunation everyone is planning for their future. I do not recommend yet making the big leap, but I do think everyone hit a learning curve and is applying the knowledge they learned into their lives.

[astrology-with-charu]

As we transition from the day of Hades moon to soon a full moon in Sagittarius we feel ourselves go through an intense process of shift emotionally as Moon square Pluto - well can eat something which brings comfort to see why you need it and can you stand without.

It can feel intense but this monthly transit helps us transform slowly emotionally bringing us closer to knowing our own self making us strong in turn without reliance of another. Under the Hades moon I wrote below, I don’t plan what I do so it’s not a normal format but I am going to share it otherwise whats the point of writing.

When Life hands you lemons make lemonade and hope in hell its not a bitter one 😊

Mercury Retrograde 2024 the Impact on 12 Signs.

Mercury Retrograde 2024: As we all know, every planet, including Mercury, completes its circle around the Sun at regular intervals. Because it is closest to the Sun, its speed is second only to the Moon’s. One year on Earth equals three years on Mercury. Now that we’ve covered the basics of Mercury’s retrograde motion, it’s time to go deeper. Astrology teaches us about the earth’s proportionate characteristics. When a planet rotates, it finally reaches a point where the Earth and Sun join it. When observed from Earth, the planet seems to be moving backward, a condition known as retrograde motion.

August 🥵 2024 Monthly - Leo

Preshuffle: You’re having to let something go. Not because you want to, but because it just hasn’t worked out for some time, and you don’t know what to do about it. Nothing has worked, you don’t know enough or have the tools to do something about it, or by the time you do it won’t even matter anymore. Could be big or small, like a DIY project that’s been on hold.

Meditation: A synchronized chorus singing “California Dreaming”, in front of the Hollywood sign. I love that song. But this chorus was a group of an old style of fashion…the 1930’s-50’s. Polka dot bathing suits. Predominantly well-off white people, prim and proper, running around on a beach…being white, idk how else to say it. Movies in stark contrast with color, in the distance things are getting exciting but still old fashioned. But, the people watching them were *modern day* people, it was the California of today. They were looking at this chorus like they’re high 💊 The sign I have on my table gives me a similar vibe and will come with a disclaimer…are they related? You could be dealing with a cultural difference or situation of some kind, in that only certain people would truly understand or “get it”. I’m not really sure how to place this one besides old vs. new.

Main energy: 5 Cups

Someone is coming back into town and not telling you? Or they’re finishing something, possibly starting something new - and not telling you. You are under the impression there’s unfinished business here, more to talk about and possibly heal or work on…and the other person has decided for themselves in a way that has left you feeling sad and disappointed. Every Oracle is about love so this one could be specific. Even if it’s not a lover, it’s regarding love, connection, partnership. Like a friend that left town for school and got married, moved there and never came back. Someone could’ve made an appearance or said something and they didn’t - so you’re sad. Justifiably. I’m also getting something like a company sending you or your person somewhere far away at a time that’s kinda inconvenient (like your birthday?) Or you may hope for a return from someone around this time, and they’re letting you down.

What’s going on in August:

6 Pentacles:

You thought everything was on the up & up with this person. You give, I give, we’re equal and it’s good. It was fair until it wasn’t, and I’m getting you’ve tried righting a wrong regarding this, it’s not like you’re just resting on your laurels. If anything, they’re not reciprocating, and you’re at a loss for what you’re supposed to do about it. Nothing, right? What can you even do? Justice may be a clear cut-off, either things are fair and balanced or over with and you give up. That’s the release. You don’t have any faith, or proof, that things can improve from where they are currently in this situation/relationship, though you’ve waited to even come to that conclusion.

Justice:

Some of you could have things tied up in the legal system and that’s what you’ve waited on, hoping it would happen before or around now. Definitely sooner 💯 For example, an ex could have primary custody and you’ve waited for the courts to give you your kids back, or more time, child support possibly, but not yet. Or on the contrary, you could finally be receiving the Justice you deserve out of a whole hell of a lot of confusion you’ve dealt with for a long time. Something about this though, even if you win, you lose. Or something is lost and that’s where the focus is with 5 Cups. There are two cups still standing but we aren’t seeing that in our sadness.

Time is a big factor, how long it’s been. You’ve been with someone for years and they’re not acting like they want to move on to the next stage. You’ve worked somewhere a long time and they haven’t acted like they want to promote you. You were hoping for good news and kinda feel defeated, expectations have not met reality and it sucks.

King of Pentacles:

This doesn’t feel like your energy. Could be a co-parent or boss, those are the ones coming through anyway. Could be a legal official too. You’re waiting for someone to step it UP, and have been for who knows how long, to no avail. Someone could have lost a job and you’ve been waiting around to hear about that - it’s not coming. Same for a promotion. This could simply be work bestie getting sent to another branch to help out for awhile…but are they coming back? Doesn’t look like it. Not this month anyway. Or if they do, they don’t even say something to catch up or anything. Maybe because of time but - you don’t care, you’re hurt. It could even be someone coming back to your company that already left - but you don’t like them or you wanted the position yourself. The biggest problem is no one is being open and honest about anything with you, like hello. Talk.

8 Wands rev:

No speaking, no action, you feel like you haven’t been included or involved when you should be. Or your input wasn’t asked for but it matters? You could feel ignored, skipped over, and unappreciated. Burden is here with the Oracle and this row repeats the message of having no choice but to put the burden down, what are you supposed to do about decisions you didn’t make, or drama you didn’t cause? You are seriously conflicted about what your role is here, and it’s due to others not speaking to you or involving you. You could be jumping to conclusions or assuming the worst - silence will do that. Is it your loss or theirs? Probably theirs but you’re still hurt so…wtf. Your attitude is not hanging onto this & letting it go, because you have to - not want to 🤷‍♂️

8 Cups rev:

If someone else has avoided you it’s because they’re avoiding your reaction, a disaster, a meltdown of some kind - and a block from progress. So involving you would stop them in some way, or you’d be upset…which you clearly are. You could’ve invested in something financially that you can’t do anything with and in order to get out of a pending financial disaster, you have to let go of whatever this is. There is no progress without letting go of the burden you’re carrying about this thing, or person, that’s why you’re sad. For some this could be a break-up, you wanted to reunite and they knew if they said how they really feel you’d throw a fit. Same for a boss, they’re making a final decision and you’re stuck with it, could be to avoid problems down the line and doesn’t even involve you more than that. Either way the challenge is letting go of something you had high hopes for.

Advice: 6 Cups rev & Ace of Wands, letting go of the past and moving towards a fun and exciting new beginning - just without this person or thing. It’s not how you thought it was going to be, and there may be some anger as well as sadness. Again, you have no choice, you’re not dropping burdens because you feel like it, some of you have tried everything and there’s no use. There’s something new ahead.

Signs you may be dealing with:

10 Burden 🫠

Many times we take on the stress of those we love and care for. We see it as the ultimate sacrifice. We take on others’ burden to save them the trouble or heartache. Ironically, the way energy and the universe work makes this a very counterproductive way of operating. When we take on the burdens of others, we deny them the ability to learn and grow from their own lessons. We also interfere with divine planning and timing. Never one to be thwarted - any lessons circumvented will absolutely reappear - sometimes with much more force than what was originally intended.

Ask yourself if you or another is taking on troubles and lessons not belonging to them out of a need to be needed. This stems from the fear that you (or they) are fundamentally not enough. This is not true, you are created perfect. Your fears and doubts keep you separated from this truth. This is the separation one can feel from Spirit. Once you accept and believe you are perfect and worthy, the tendency to make yourself invaluable to others through your help and assistance will go away. Your relationships can then be based on truth and not manipulation.

Venus Leo - Affair 💋

Jupiter Libra - Negotiation 🗣️

Could be literal signs you have, someone else has, or the message they share. Jupiter Libra is a peaceful discussion, open communication with honesty, negotiation being a possibility, and it’s matched with equal give and take, Justice. That is what benefits the situation and what you’ve not gotten. You may feel you’ve given and have not received. Venus Leo likes someone going above and beyond for them, feeling valued & celebrated. This financial issue may be a canceling of plans that you’re disappointed with, due to having to avoid some disaster. Or someone is cheap. Someone could simply be stuck on Jury Duty. Or traveling for work. Or you yourself don’t have the money to do what you want. You thought a decision involved a discussion but someone is just making it - in any story, and you’re upset.

We enter into August as:

Wolf of White Light 🌙

“There is a guide inside of us.”

Wolf of White Light comes to remind you that you must use your instinct, for it is what protects you. You are more aware of this than you realize. Your instinct is finely tuned and accurate, so why doubt it? He reminds us that focusing on past injustices will not prepare us for the present. Wolf of White Light warns that time spent in the past also leaves you defenseless in the future. Letting go of the old is signified, for if you do not, you may miss the opportunities that Spirit has planned for you. Wolf is the spirit guide that comes to lead you up the mountain you are about to climb. He only appears to those seeking a guide. Allow him to guide you, and follow your instincts. Remember that when the Wolf appears, it’s time to move on. He is a reminder that your journey is guided. With your eyes focused forward, the Wolf is waiting in the distance for you. Now is the time.

What is to be learned in August:

Demon Red Rainbow 👹

“The greatest adversary is the one living inside of me.”

If the Demon Red Rainbow speaks to you, it is an indication that you are starting to (or will) forge ahead on the path you have chosen. You are correct in thinking that this path is important. Demon Red Rainbow denotes miraculous changes which lay ahead but not without your dogged determination. If you are facing a hill that appears insurmountable, this card reminds us that most true adversaries are the ones inside of us. Life always turns for the better when we face our demons.

You are not to abandon your focus no matter what comes up. The direct route may be the best way to the other side of your fear. There is a crucial lesson here for us all. Know that Spirit always provides an ally when we face the Demon Red Rainbow. It will be clear to you who they are. You need not face anything alone. Spirit has chosen a very powerful lesson for you so that you may teach others what you have learned. A gift of this kind is never given without our ability to use it.

Red may be a lucky color ❤️
