It’s been far too long with their separation so let them meet again, right? Nothing would go wrong during a reunion.

Second member of my lil Space rescue crew I'm building for funsies. I also couldn't help but doodle that comic strip as well, BC it was stuck in my brain and wouldn't leave otherwise.

Anya deserved SO much better....art wise too, maybe I'll try to draw her properly later?

(Side note; in a more serious story, Stefan absolutely would NOT just casually walk there with a bloody axe, knowing Anya is very badly traumatized; he'd be much more tactful. This strip is kind of meant to be absurd and 'non-canonical' to his character)

Also, more info about Nadiya below:

Nadiya is VERY picky about her crew, hence she has a small one. She's especially picky about men, having had unpleasant experiences working with them during her training.

That said, she has very firm trust on Stefan and her co-pilot, who have proven themselves to her quite a few times already

Nadiya finds Stefan's obliviousness over the fact TWO people have a crush on him amusing.

She and Stefan act as the "mom and dad" of the crew, though they aren't a couple by any means; neither feels any sort of attraction to the other, but they trust and respect each other, and are willing to take more drastic measures than the others.

Nadiya can be quite ruthless if she wants to, there is a reason why she has a reputation. That being said she takes her job as a rescuer seriously - she's just willing to 'rescue' crews from their bad apples as well...

Her saying, "Whatever the threat, external or internal" is basically her philosophy that leads to this.

I'll add more stuff once I figure it out; I don't have her that fleshed out yet, but that's typical for any new characters, they need time to develop.

What if Tony Stark was Nicholas Scratch??

What if Tony was the reincarnation soul of Nicholas Scratch aka Agatha Harkness son, Nicky.

Just picture it; like Tony, Nicky draws people to him. Charms them.

People immediately flock to the youngster in the tavern singing The Ballad of the Witches' Road.

Like Nicky, Tony took Deaths hand and left behind people who mourn him.

So who wants to write this drabble?

Safe and Sound | Agatha Harkness x Rio Vidal & Nicholas Scratch

Summary: Agatha, Rio and Nicholas' life during the 1700s.

Word Count: 1103

Warnings: Spiders? Storms

"Rio, why is Victoria on the counter?" Agatha sighed, turning to face her wife in the living room. "I told you, you need to be watching her if you let her out." Agatha picked up the tarantula and carefully placed her in the enclosure.

"I know, I know my love." Rio sighed, getting up to grab feed for the spider, putting some in next to her who devoured it in a few seconds, making Rio exclaim, "Good girl Vic!"

Agatha chuckled, "Shh, you're going to wake Nicky up, it's still early."

Rio smiled in response, before sitting back down and looking out the window of their cottage, watching the hammering rain hit the glass. "It's really coming down out there..." She muttered, just as she saw a strike of lightning in the distance, making her grin. "You know what that means!"

As she finished her sentence, a soft thundering sound was heard. She gave Agatha an excited grin, who in response just shook her head with a smile. "I do like thunderstorms..." She added, taking out a wooden bowl and some flour.

The lighting kept coming in as Rio watched in fascination, stroking Señor Scratchy's head as he buried himself in his bed. The chickens they raised had huddled up together in the coop that they had built together with their son.

Nicky's goat, Miracle, lived in the coop as well. Nicholas had once saved the goat from being slaughtered by stealing him from a nearby barn. He was the only goat left, and would have been killed if he didn't take him when he had the chance. He begged his moms to let Miracle live with them, and even though they pretended to be angry, their son's love for animals was too pure and they where both secretly proud of him for saving a soul of the innocent.

"Mommy? Momma?" Nicky's voice was heard from the hallway. "Is that thunder?"

Agatha and Rio looked towards his direction, and both smiled as he wandered into the living room.

"Sure is, honey. You love storms, just like your momma, huh?" Rio asked, and the boy nodded, sitting next to her on the couch, looking outside.

"Are Miracle and the chickens safe?" He asked, and Rio pointed over to the chicken coop, where Miracle was inside his wooden house and the chickens were spread out into the nesting beds, sheltering themselves from the bad weather.

Nicky smiled, "They're so smart, knowing when to hide when a storm is coming!" 

"Ah, that's because animals can sense natural phenomenons, like storms and earthquakes." Agatha informed, kneading the dough she made carefully. "They're much smarter than humans."

Nicky nodded, "I know, they're so clever!" He said happily. He stood up, grabbed a sheet of paper, and started rummaging through his crayon box.

"Feeling inspired, are we?" Rio chuckled, and he smiled back at her.

The boy started choosing out the perfect colors for his masterpiece. He began drawing the outline of the cottage, even attempting to make it look realistic by making it three dimensional. 

Rio watched him with a smile, before standing up and walking behind Agatha, wrapping her arms around her. "Need any help?"

"You could put this bread in the oven for me." Agatha replied, and Rio took the bread from her and placed it in their stone oven. Agatha used her magic to produce some fire underneath to bake it. She hummed thoughtfully, and turned back to Rio. "Let's go back to Nicky while this bakes, yeah?"

The two sat down on the couch, looking at Nicky on the floor. "What are you working on, hon?" Agatha asked, and Nicky turned away.

"You can't see yet! I need to finish it first." He insisted, causing a laugh from the women.

"You should know better than to ask to see an artists work before it's complete, Agatha." Rio joked.

"Forgive me." Agatha rolled her eyes with a smile, looking out the window and noticing how the storm seemed to worsen.

The wind was picking up and the rain was getting heavier. Agatha bit her lip, and with the flick of her hand, four wooden walls and a roof appeared over the chicken coop, completely enclosing it.

"They'll be safe as kittens now." She smiled reassuringly at her son, who thanked her.

After a few minutes, Agatha stood up and headed back to the kitchen. She put the fire out and with her oven gloves, removed the freshly baked bread. She closed her eyes as she took in the smell, and set it down on the table, cutting a few slices for her family.

"Anyone hungry?" She asked, placing a bowl of bread slices on the living room table, taking a piece and giving it to her rabbit. Rio and Nicky quickly got up to take a piece, humming at the delightful smell.

"You make the best bread, mommy!" Nicky exclaimed, and Agatha put her hand to her heart.

"Aw, I know. Thank you." She chuckled, making Rio playfully slap her shoulder.

Nicky took a bite, and handed his mothers his drawing. The pair took it, and smiled.

He had drawn their cottage surrounded by azaleas and dandelions, with the three of them standing outside holding hands. He had drawn Miracle, and each individual chicken in the background, as well as Señor Scratchy being held by Agatha and Victoria the tarantula on Rio's shoulder.

They both smiled, very widely, and Agatha magically floated the paper up to the wall, using a spell to make it stick.

Rio looked over to him, "You know, an artist always signs his work. Why not add your signature?" She suggested, and he quickly agreed, standing up and leaning against the wall, writing on the corner of the page using a black crayon, "Nicky".

Agatha nodded, crossing her arms as she admired his creation for a few moments.

"Perfect." She smiled, taking a piece of the bread and biting into it. "Oh, I really do make the best bread." 

Rio and Nicholas laughed, nodding in agreement.

He sat down on the couch between them, watching the rain again. Lightning crashed through the dark sky, and thunder roaring shortly after. Agatha took out a large blanket that she had knitted, and draped it over the three of them, to protect them against the temperature drop.

She looked towards Nicky, noticing his eyes closing. "Are you feeling tired?" She whispered, and he nodded.

Agatha and Rio wrapped an arm around him, smiling at each other as he began to fall asleep on Agatha's shoulder. Scratchy got up from his bed and sat in Rio's lap, making her smirk at his instincts.

Nicky fell into a peaceful slumber, and Agatha and Rio sat in silence, watching and listening to the storm outside, that they were safe and sound from.

This blog is being taken care of by my ghost. I died the exact moment Rio told Nicky to kiss his mama goodbye before leaving with her.

Okay now do Lysenkoism

Sexy as hell.

It almost had to be; science builds consensus through shared experiences, so it can afford to be boring an un-charismatic. If you're unifying people around truth-claims that can't be replicated or experienced, then you need something else to coordinate people and keep them in line once the bodies start piling up. Lysenko used a robust and varied set: grafting itself to existing communist ideology, violent enforcement by Stalin. But it (both the movement and the man) also had genuine charisma.

Lysenko himself clearly photographs well, but a ton of the claims here are also clearly oriented towards emotionally powerful experiences for the followers. The rejection of the uncomfortable chaos at the root of natural selection, the valorization of agriculture as the forefront of science, the capacity of soviet thought to improve science as a discipline, the supremacy of ideology over human development with no concern for the stubborn facts of genetic disposition... all of these things feel great, and they can be crowd-pleasing notes in a grand symphony.

"You have the power to sculpt the ecosystems around you as you please, right here and now. Hunger can just end, and this is only the first step in an absolute mastery over the world provided by the deep insights of our wise leaders, insights that will catapult us in to a glorious, infinite future. It is merely a social problem, and we have solved that problem as no one else has in the history of mankind."

We feel immune to this because we live in the post-Borlaugh era. But whatever intensity of feeling we have towards Borlaugh, the man who saved a billion lives- how much more intensely would we feel about a man who was successfully pretending to be the thing that Borlaugh actually was? A man who made his promises when famine was still a very real threat, and when even developed nations struggled with food security? Who was unconstrained by the need to actually solve the problem, and could instead devote his entire career to making us feel powerfully like the problem had been solved?

While I am planning on adding 2 more crewmates, these five were the originals I had planned, sooo....I decided to do this already. Also serves as notes for myself for any more doodles/comics that I might do in the future about the potential interactions.
