so tired of seeing ppl (non rp fandom) complaining about the doctor crying whenever he’s in an emotionally traumatizing situation.
#out.#one ncuti is amazing at it & its natural & not that dumb masculin one single tear so why wouldn’t we encourage talent#two enough of this toxic masculinity of not allowing men to feel their emotions and cry during situations that are emotionally traumatizing#three its very telling to me that the ppl are complaining about a black man crying its very similar to how trek & xpants fandom respond to#michael & naomi for having emotions#its also annoying bcs fandom didnt like how little jodie’s doctor displayed emotion but now arent happy bcs ncuti’s doctor is displaying#emotion which is it you want ? emotionally repressed or not#not to mention if we look at how 13 avoided any negative emotions & if we are going by canon that 15 is the healthier doctor aha#do ppl not realize what happens after you repress your feelings for so long & what happens when you are moving towards healing & facing#those emotions ?#to me it makes sense narratively for the doctor to be dealing with his emotions at a hightened state considering how much 13/14 couldnt#deal with their trauma & emotions#aside from the fact this doctor is still traumatized / not dealing with his emotions lol but thats not really relevant here#negative /#especially when the majority of the time we do see him cry hes either in an emotionally traumatizing situation like stepping on a LANDMINE#or maybe the various times he thought he had lost ruby & she was DEAD#or how about the time the space racists didnt want to be saved by him because they were racist

I read Abdulla Pashew’s “Union” on your page, and it literally shook me to my core. I have never been a poetry kind of girl. I was always more into prose. But lately, I’ve been getting into poetry slowly, and your blog is helping me discover some great poems and poets. I am so grateful to you for that!
I wanted to ask if you know Abdulla Pashew’s other works similar to/as bone-chilling as Union or any other poets.
I want to read poetry, but it’s scattered all over the internet, and looking them up on Google demotivates me. I can’t have books of poetry collections as I'm not into particular poets yet. I wish there were some kind of website or something where all the great poems of great poets are gathered, hahaha.
Anyway, thank you, and keep doing what you’re doing because you’re great at it!
I'm so glad to hear that, anon 🤍
In all honesty, I'm hesitant to compare and contrast poems when they've had such an emotional impact because often that impact is deeply personal to the reader, and you don't know when, or where, it's going to come from; it's also distinct to a particular poem reaching you at a particular time in some cases and isn't necessarily something you can replicate by trying to make other poems match the experience of one particular poem--all of them are unique in the end. All I can give you are the poems that most moved me, and that I feel tally with "Union" either in terms of affecting me through rhythm, language style or content. A few individual ones:
"Rain Song" by Badr Shakir al-Sayyab
"Clothes" by Sherko Bekas
"No Explosions" Naomi Shihab Nye
"A Kiss on the Forehead" Marina Tsvetaeva
"Cloves" by Saadi Youssef (second poem on the page)
"The Cinnamon Peeler" by Michael Ondaatje
"Separation" by W.S. Merwin
"Woman Unborn" by Anna Swir
"Fire Graffiti" by Tomas Transtromer
"Shadowplay" by Sándor Kányádi
Collection-wise I think the first poet that comes to mind whose writing-style is slightly in the same tone as "Union" is Maram al-Massri, particularly A Red Cherry on a White-Tiled Floor (you can read it for free on the Internet Archive here). I would also highly recommend Dunya Mikhail's The Iraqi Nights (some of the poems in the series "Tablets" can be read here).
As for Pashew himself, there are only handful of his poems online in English, most of them by the Poetry Translation Centre. The translator of "Union" has translated a selection of his poetry in Dictionary of Midnight, though, which I've added it to my list, so if you find yourself drawn to him, it might be worth seeing if your local library has a copy as a way of getting more directly in touch with some of Pashew's work (in fact, I would recommend checking the library in general for any poets you've enjoyed: you're not paying for the books and so there is no pressure to feel you have to enjoy them).

Dean saved the world? - show me receipts!
Im sorry but seeing that other post about Charlie thanking dean for saving the world just lit my head on fire!... so instead of hijacking someone else's post, decided to dash off my own...n It also got me thinking - we keep being TOLD that dean is a saviour n saved the world (while being SHOWN his horrible,terrible,abusive behaviours onscreen) repeatedly by other characters incl sam.... but - where'sthe evidence?... here's my quick little rundown - tell me if you can spot dean "saving the world"?... coz I really couldn't...I tried, I promise!
let's look at the world-ending events in the show shall we:
Apocalypse v1.0? - it was sam(swansong) doing the saving - n caused by DEAN breaking 1st seal by selling his soul n the winged rat actively being a co-conspirator n manipulator
Godstiel (apocalypse2.0?) - sam again (remember him stabbing him to stop him while sam could barely stand?) - oh yeh n that was caused by asstiel too
Leviathans (apocalypse 3?) - its borax & black goo spatter into purgatory - & also caused by asstiel n sam n dean had to stand him up
Metatron & Angel fall at end of s8? - oh yeah, ALSO caused by asstiel and dean's emotional abuse pushing sam to "atone" - apocalypse 4?
Gadreel&metatron n angels war - caused by DEAN, casstiel n oh yeah deano going off n getting moc rather than face consequences of his facilitating a rape on his little brother.... n only ended by those entities' own self destructive tendencies (gadreel) & Naomi ..apocalypse 5?
Demon dean n moc-dean - dean's dumbassery caused it n sam ended 1xapocalyose (apocalypse 5) by agreeing to die at dean's hand n having dean banished as there was no cure -
BUT last minute there WAS a cure ( thanks to SAM working away n recruiting people to work on one despite all being against him) n dean was freed from the moc,saving the world - yet again...
Apocalypse 6 aka the darkness - n yes here sam indeed started another apocalypse when he released the darkness to save dean - copyright winchester-brother stupidity and also because through s7-9 dean has been berating sam relentlessly n needs sam to prove how much he truly "wurves dean" lbr... sam obliged unknowingly n released the darkness
n in alpha/omega n soul bomb holder dean DID TRY to save the world - but ACTUALLY wasn't necessary (& remember how throughout the season, he "couldn't kill the darkness") n basically returned as is...but uh with his mom...so pretty useless in terms of world-saving tbh imo...
Bmol - sam saved...the USA - not necessarily the world - as they still exist in the UK still at end of that season...
S13 - "oh look, we're running out of ideas,let's recycle: lucifer is out again" - casstiels fault n yes, dean makes another dumb deal and its SAM that hands him the blade to kill lucifer in that laughable cringey "battle royale" n then he promptly becomes the cause of yet another apocalypse as Michael!dean
S13-S14 - jack n chuck villain-arc - jack being born is not a world-ender in n of itself but it's sam that advocates for raising the all-powerful nephilim, Jack, with some decent values - batterred-wife though he is, by this stage.... but can we just agree that jack wasn't posing any threats to the world until he became soul-less n even then he's overcome with guilt n runs away n then is remorsefulonce hes got soul back? ... so no world-ending here..... until dean's stupidity (lets put jack in a box!) once again meant a powerful force aka jack here, was angry n unleashed upon the world - & then who went n got chuck to create a god-killer gun although, still no crushing the world agenda from jack still? - yeah u-know-who .... n who's so outta control that he wants to use jack as a soul-bomb to destroy God aka chuck - which IS a world-emding event potentially? - yep that'd be dumbass-dean...n who talks him off that ledge n saves the world potentially from THAT maybe-apocalypse? - that's right it's SAM!.... & who shot God/chuck? - SAM!...
S15 - chuck as final villain - who noticed n came up with the plan to have jack absorb chucks powers n effectively install a new god?? - SAM! ....
...so, WHEN & WHERE EXACTLY did DEAN 'save the world'?.... I want receipts!...
(no seriously tho, I'm happy to hear examples of dean saving the world for real)
#anti dean winchester#supernatural#sam winchester#spn#Tell me exactly where n when does dean “save the world” that he got thanked by Charlie (& others)for?#my original post#N I discovered that there's a limit of 30xgifs per post lol 😆 😂 🤣#I may have gotten sequence of seasons a bit stuffed up here n there but think I covered all the big "world-enders'? - pls add more if missi#Took me ages to find gifs - some not the best apologies but it gets idea across#Thx for reading

TMA S3 FINALE (and me screaming)
I don’t know where to start. Maybe the fact that everyone I like in this podcast always dies? Yeah I’ll start there. What the fuck guys. What. Like. What?????
I’m not going into my usual format but holy shit. MAG 119 was like motion sickness but for my ears. The music. I hated it so much. That organ. Tim. Tim. I knew he raised too many death flags, Jesus. Like I’m happy and all for him but GOD NO. AND DAISY??? Though when she started attacking the shit out of Breekon and Hope, I did internally cheer her on. The fact they tried to act as Basira made me wanna scream. Now that I think about it, was Daisy being influenced by one of the entities?? Like The Slaughter?
Basira is so much stronger than me. Like genuinely, I think she got bumped up a couple places just by her sheer logic during 119 and I am so impressed 💀 so much so, I’m wondering if she had like any internal help, y’know??
Orsinov is like one of the most horrifying sounding characters here. The moment she put on Gertrude’s and Leitners voice, I shrieked. Something about the sing-song voice, the way she inflects certain words makes my head spin. Like Michael.
Little backtracking, Martins situation with his mom is like devastating. And the moment Elias started speaking, I knew he was gonna pull out some traumatizing shitty news to give Martin, I hate him.
Fast forwarding: Jon’s dreams
Okay. So. Jon I guess is in some sort of coma and man are his dreams fucked up.
All the people that appeared in there were the people who gave physical statements. Not super hard to figure out but we had Dr Lionel Elliott, Tessa Winters, then Daisy but obviously she’s not there (DAISY 😭), Karolina Górka, Jordan Kennedy, I think the melted woman refers to Jude Perry, the hunters (Julia and Trevor), Naomi Herne and then the pitying figure. The only woman I would think would fit this vague description is Sasha because of course it’s vague, he doesn’t remember her and I’m going to sob.
Bit scared on what Jon is turning into. Whatever it is, it’s not anything good. He’s watching a lot and I guess he’s watching other people’s dreams- or nightmares- and just….watching??? I’d be terrified.
Elias got arrested. Love it. Though, “Be seeing you” I HATE YOU. 🫵🏻
Would be happy but god damn PETER LUKAS has replaced him and I don’t know if that’s worse or better because we at least know Elias’s actions and his limits. We don’t know much on Peter and I don’t like him at all. At least he’s giving them paid leave. And a counselor. I personally need a counselor for this WHOLE SEASON.
When people told me “good luck” when I started getting into TMA, I laughed it off. I should’ve taken it more seriously because I have never felt more distinct and unpredictable emotions than listening to this podcast. I think that’s all my thoughts. Mostly I’m just uhh dying here. I hate everyone and this podcast and I’ll be listening to the beginning of Season 4 tomorrow!
Again, thank you to everyone who has been following my mini rants and crappy theories. Remember when I thought Gertrude was living in the tunnels??? But seriously, thanks to anyone who has been like fully reading through my posts. School has been wack and the people, and just the podcast as a whole has been making my time less stressful 💀 anyways that’s too emotionally vulnerable so thank you!!!
#the magnus archives#tma#tma podcast#tma s3#the magnus archives season 3#MAG 117#mag 118#mag 119#mag 120#zabala0z thoughts#this podcast is all I think about and I hate it for that#how dare they make such a podcast that just hits me in my soul#Martins sobs will forever make me want to wring Elias’s neck just as much as Melanie’s sobs do#HA PRISON ARC#THAT BRITISH BITCH ‼️‼️

A short drabble of Will & the Apollo kids + a sprinkle of angst
PROMPT: Michael,Lee and the other apollo campers realizing the new tiny blonde kid in the hermes cabin is the son of the Naomi Solace and freaking out.
(A/N: I very loosely followed the prompt in the end)
It wasn’t surprising when the new camper, a small blonde boy with blue eyes, named Will Solace ended up in the infirmary. The first time Lee had treated Will he had been walked in by Maron, a satyr Lee knew brought back tons of demigods, covered in marks from where Stymphalian birds had attacked him. At the time, Will hadn’t said much to him, or anyone else, but he listened well. “It’s nothing too bad. Here,” Lee placed a small piece of ambrosia in Will’s hand with a gentle smile, “this will help you feel better. Just eat that and you’ll be feeling as good as new in no time.” Lee ruffled Will’s hair and walked over to check on a nasty cut that Sherman Yang of the Ares Cabin had gotten during training.
That had been two weeks ago. Will remained unclaimed by his godly parent, while it was disappointing (but unsurprising), several campers including Michael Yew did their best to cheer him up. Hermes and Apollo were at archery together, a new concept that Chiron had suggested. While two different cabins were put together for activities, all of the campers knew the real hope was that the Gods would find promise in one of their unclaimed children during an activity and claim them.
As it turned out, Will was better than other campers with a bow and arrow, though just barely above bar by Apollo standards. Michael found himself drifting over to the boy to help him more and more throughout the session. “You're stance is good, but you need to work on focusing your aim at your target. Why don't you try setting the bow down and throwing the arrow to see if that helps?” He suggested.
Will let out a huff of air and kicked at the ground beneath his feet. “What if I'm just really bad? I'm not even good at holding a sword!” His voice wavered with emotion as his eyes welled with tears. Michael couldn't help but feel bad for him. Unlike most campers, he had been claimed his first day after shooting an apple off of Luke Castellan's head. (If asked, he would swear it was an accident, but some other campers seemed to disagree.)
“Look, Will, I can't say what you'll be good at and what you won't, as your godly parent hasn't claimed you.” The younger boy sniffled and focused his attention on the ground. “But what I can say is that not every demigod is good at the same stuff. I can barely heal to save my life. Yeah, I can give someone nectar and ambrosia, watch over them, give them mortal medicine, all that jazz, but I don't have Lee or my big sister, Juliet's, skill in medicine.” This made Will's eyes widen in shock, because all of the Apollo children were so gifted. (Luke told him it was because their father was the God of a bunch of stuff.)
“My Mama says that everyone has their own skills.” Will spoke up after a few minutes of twisting the hem of his shirt in his fists.
“Your mama sounds very wise.” Michael smiled and picked up the bow Will had been using.
“She is! She's a musician!” Michael noticed how Will's blue eyes seemed to move like the sky when he mentioned his mom. He figured just because he didn't have the best relationship with his own at a young age, the same didn't have to be for all demigods.
“Oh? What's her name? Maybe I know of her.”
“Naomi Solace.” Michael almost choked at the proud tone, not that it wasn't completely appropriate. Naomi Solace was an absolute icon in the music industry. Their head counselor, Sam - a warm, ivory guy who stood at 5 '11, who would be leaving after this summer, had brought a ton of her records and CD's from home to keep in the cabin.
“Seriously? You're Naomi Solace's son!?” The other Apollo kids turned their heads in excitement and began to crowd around them. Will just nodded his head nervously, afraid he had said something wrong.
“That's fucking awesome! We all love her!” Catherine, an umber toned Apollo girl with heterochromia, spoke up.
“Will is still a child, watch your tongue, Cathy.” Sam scolded with a fond, exasperated expression. Will found himself bursting out into a fit of giggles. He had heard much worse while on the road with his mother, but he appreciated the sentiment nonetheless.
“You have totally got to introduce us one day, little buddy.” Another Apollo child, who Will had forgotten the name of, spoke up. The children of the sun God had never been anything but welcoming, so after pretending to think about it for a minute Will grinned widely. “Alright, just remember your manners.”
The rest of the day, the Apollo cabin borrowed, or rather stole, Will so he could join them in their activities. While the boy enjoyed the company of the Hermes kids, he felt a sense of belonging that he couldn't place when he was laughing alongside the talented Apollo children. That night at dinner, instead of offering his food to Hermes, he sent an offering to the God of the Sun.
Please, I don't know if I am your son or not, but I really hope I am. I know I may not be as great as Michael or Catherine, but I feel connected to them. They feel like home….like mama…like sunshine.
#I love the apollo kids sm#Literally come talk to me about them#will solace#lee fletcher#michael yew#percy jackon and the olympians#apollo cabin#luke castellan#apollo kids#apollo kid ocs#pjo

ASTRO THEORY 6
I feel like peoples main celebrity inspirations share the same Moon sign, MC, and/or have personal placements in your 1H/9H/11H
Moon sign - emotional connection and understanding of the person you look up too, especially if they’re a musician. Depending on the sign there is something specific you see in them that you see in you
MC - how they appear to the public is how you dream to be seen as well. Specifically though their fashion and mannerisms in the public eye
1H - you might see something in them that you see in you pending on the planet
9H - they really inspire you and their influence helps expand your mind to their ideals
11H - you love to watch what they do, especially online. They feel familiar to you and you could imagine being their friend.
My moon is Sagittarius and I love Naomi Campbell’s and KeKe Palmer’s attitude and humor. Also I love Jordan Peel. And I know that FKA Twigs has a sag moon and I’ve been meaning to start listening to her.
My MC is Taurus and I tend to really be inspired and intrigued by Angelina Jolie, Alexa Demie and Marylin Monroe. I just love how they carry themselves.
My Virgo rising tends to love Virgo celebrities with a passion, Mainly Beyoncé, Michael Jackson, KeKe Palmer, and Zendaya. And I tend to really be interested in Virgo moons, like Doja Cat, Dolly Parton, and Nicki Minaj
My 9th house is Aries but Taurus takes up most of the house so Aries and Taurus placement celebrities I tend to find inspiration from if I understand their ideals. Beyoncé has Taurus Chiron, Princess Diana Taurus Venus, Marylin Monroe Taurus MC, Michael Jackson Taurus Mars
My 11th house is cancer and yet again Beyonce has Cancer MC, Angelina Jolie Cancer Rising, Zendaya Cancer Venus.
Do you share similar placements to your main inspirations? 💋

Hey shall, what's your favourite/fun headcanons on why cas keeps getting resurrected at first I tought it was cause god/chuck liked him (like remember when ppl in the destiel fandom talked about how chuck ships them... good times) Then yea, that just didn't turn out to be true lol
Ohh, this is fun. I have some nice uplifting ones and one very evil one. I could probably come up with a ton of these, and I'm not feeling super eloquent this week, but have my mental popcorn instead:
CHUCK/NETWORK NEEDED CAS -> Popularity ...and it bit Chuck in the ass because he accidentally allowed Cas to grow more and more powerful, even when he (and the writers) worked so hard to weaken him and kill him off. I don't have the exact quotes, but I know there are numerous instances that imply the writers worked hard to weaken Cas.
When the writers have to work to make Cas weaker, and to make Dean and Sam stronger, it shows that Cas is the bigger threat, in terms of cosmic power.
Emotional consequences: Because Cas is important to Dean, Cas is often resurrected specifically because Dean loses hope without him. After his first death, Cas literarily functions as The Lost Husband/The Animal Bridegroom/The Artificial Husband for Dean specifically. Unlike characters like Sam's Amelia (season 8), Dean is obsessed with clinging to his loved ones, saying to CAS: "I did not leave you!" and to NAOMI through CAS: "Take it! But you're gonna have to kill me first. Come on, you coward. Do it. Do it!" In his insistance to look for Cas in Purgatory and keep not giving up on Cas, he sets himself apart from his many mirrors. He's a lot like the human consort in many of the “supernatural spouse” tales, brave and insistent in his trials, even when death separates him from his lover. NOTE: Amelia Novak also becomes a heroine in this regard when she decided to go looking for her "lost husband," Jimmy Novak but becoming ensnared and dies in season 10. ANYWAY, Dean and Cas tend to die when the other isn't around, and they both get so depressed it makes for pretty abysmal watching. Chuck doesn't like Cas, but he needs Cas because Dean needs Cas. Dean won't behave unless he has Cas with him. DEAN from 13x03: "This life, hunting, monsters, there’s no joy in it. There’s nothing but pain, horror and death." And DEAN from 13x05: BILLIE: Maybe you’re not that guy anymore, they guy who saves the world, the guy who always thinks he’ll win no matter what. You have changed. And you tell people it’s not a big deal. You tell people you’ll work through it but you know you won’t, you can’t and that scares the hell out of you. Or… am I wrong? DEAN: What do you want me to say? Doesn’t matter. I don’t matter.
///
TETHERED TO A BROTHER or TWIN -> Functions as a thrown lifeline; i.e. one shield must fall before the other can
Not Cas-specific, but so long as your "tethered" twin is alive you cannot die. We see this with Amara and Chuck, that taking out Chuck requires killing Amara. This appears often in SPN, like with Charlie and There's No Place Like Home and the Wizard. It makes you wonder if Michael and Lucifer are similar. If you squint, Chuck does not seem able to kill Michael in 15x19 until after Lucifer has been killed. Makes you wonder if that was his intent on having them kill each other all along. That by having one kill the other, he could finally take out the son-rivals, as in the style of archetypical God-father who, because of their immortality, sees sons as threat to power. So what does that mean for Cas? Not sure, but he could be tethered to an angel that's still living. Maybe jack himself? (Or Dean's soul, for that matter.) It's assumed that Jack wakes up Cas, but there's juicy potential for it to have been Dean doing it all along, something Jack tapped into when Dean was screaming in grief during the Sam fight: DEAN: He manipulated him, he made him promises, said, ‘paradise on earth’ and Cas bought it and you know what that got him? It got him dead! Now you might be able to forget about that, but I can’t! [JACK looks distressed outside the room.] JACK: Castiel. [JACK’S eyes glow gold.]
///
MANY OF CHUCK'S REBELLIOUS CHILDREN ARE ACTUALLY CURSED TO BE RISING-AND-DYING GODS
As to quote Gabriel, "they are like cancer," he has to eradicate them, as they represent wars of old which are no longer needed. I know the rising-and-dying deity motif is something of a modern configuration, but since it appears in Remember the Titans, you have to wonder if this is a nature intrinsic to Cas himself. As angels are unable to sleep, they are unable to die. From 8x16: ZEUS: Tell me, has Prometheus experienced the child's death yet? [HAYLEY gives a nod.] How did he take it? Did he hurt? [HAYLEY nods again.] Good. ...I never get tired of watching you die. [ZEUS, holding SHANE up, says it right into his ear.] Your boy is going on the mountain. (Interestingly, the mountain forward-references to the episode Moriah.) From 14x08: COSMIC ENTITY: Stop interrupting! Start paying attention. I'm taking him. And where I'm taking you is worse than Hell… because at least Hell is something. Ohh. Ohh, God, they look scared. Does that hurt you? Good… because I want it to. In this interpretation, the Shadow is a higher God, and it has cursed Castiel for helping humanity the same way Prometheus helped humanity. It uses similar linguistics!
///
EVIL CAS/SHADOW MEANING -> God's most trusted double agent
Cas is resurrected by Chuck because he's secretly an intractable agent of Chuck, God's most trusted, analogues to how Ruby was "the best of those sons of bitches." This would take on a Christian overtone, that Chuck and Jack are the same person. Evil interpretation where Cas having been an agent of Fate all along. With this shadow meaning, "Cas helped" from 15x20 becomes especially ominous. But there's also "it's not the bait, it's the fish, I think they're beginning to anticipate me" from 15x06 right after Dean accuses him of being "the something that always goes wrong." There's something eerie in the idea that Chuck and Jack are in fact the same person, and Castiel is loyal to Him above all. "This lie won't hurt them," from Gimme Shelter etc etc. This would make Dean, like Sally in "Last Call" the real symbolic fish. If hunting is recklessness, fishing is patience, and Cas/God/Jack were being patient and fishing Dean's soul all along, baiting him with Love. Cas as a honey trap is a frightening thought, honestly, and although I don't prefer this shadow interpretation, it IS scary if someone wanted to explore it or have Dean simply fear this possibility, you know? Dean has an inherent fear of large powers, like Godstiel, and Jack's power, and he's right to fear it. At the end of the story, Cas and Jack are the only main characters still alive, so there's a real possibility that it is Cas who won the long game, not Chuck.
edit - there’s also cas has a soul theory, that he cannot sleep in the empty the sand way jack becomes aware of heaven in byzantium

Naomi isn't really the best at telling people what she's thinking or how she feels about them (i e "I'm proud of you" "you did really good!" "you have such talent for (said thing)") but she always ALWAYS makes a conscious effort to tell Will she loves him 3. Will may be a sixteen year old, 6'4'' grown child, but he will still curl up in his mama's arms. 4. Will didn't meet his grandparents til he was 12. He had been a year round camper since he was 10. When he turned 11, Naomi moved back in with her parents. After a bit, Will went to 'summers only' for a year 5. When Will can't sleep, he'll listen to some of Naomi's older songs, the ones she'd sing for him when she was still writing them.
Plus one... two. 6. Like alot of young kids, Will liked to hold strands of Naomi's hair when he was pretty young. She kept it long and curly, and Will loved the texture. (and this is why Will likes to play with Nico's hair) 7. Will was born with brown hair, the same light brown that Naomi has. When he was claimed by Apollo, most of his hair went blonde. (happens to every child of apollo)
I personally LOVE tsats. I really don't think it was that good of a book and, as always with Rick's books, there are many time inconsistencies, but I still love it with my whole heart. Nico was my favorite character as soon as he was introduced, blah blah blah saw myself in him, blah blah blah other traumatic stuff that made me love him more, now he's queer and i'm crying because he's like me blah blah blah, and BOOM! TSATS! It's very dear to me because I get to see these characters over come their problems and... it's jsut very emotional
NAOMI FOR THE WIN!!!!! @mediumgayitalian has some really good Naomi writings
She met Apollo at one of her first gigs at a local bar. She thought he was some fancy fella from a band. They 'dated' for a bit before he had to go. Naomi understood, a good musicians life was never stationary. She was nineteen. When she was found out she was pregnant, she ran away from home, absolutely terrified of what her good Christian parents would think if they found out she had gotten knocked up by some no good rocker.
It was just them for a while, Naomi and her little baby. She never acted like she was always alone. Always said "us" and "we". She was never alone, she had her baby. She had to bounce around from place to place, looking for working, looking for a place to stay. A month before Will was born, she finally found a stable job and apartment. Naomi loved Will more than she thought she ever could, seeing as she already loved him so much before she had even met him. They were never separated- hell, until he started kindergarten, Will went to work with Naomi. All her coworkers loved him, his gap-toothed smile and face that lit up like the sun. That's all Naomi ever needed. Her son. Her sun. And, of course, he became her muse. Every song she wrote was about him in some way. Something about the sunshine, or a baby's laugh, her strongest love, her will to live. Her music started to get popular. Naomi would pinch Will's cheeks, "all because of you," she'd face. Will would giggle in return. Sure, he didn't entirely understand what it all meant, but if Naomi could keep him happy, she would do anything. Will was about eight when Naomi started opening up to the possibility of touring. It was nerve-wracking. Her stability, which she had worked so hard for, would be gone. She'd be bouncing around again, but this time she'd have Will with her. She was more of a "we" than she thought before. After some convincing from her friends (friends? coworkers? other women her age with children she was able to speak to occasionally? it was all the same) Naomi decided that the tour would be good for Will. The money she could get off of it... She could give Will a good life, better than what she would be able to do on her own.
She hadn't expected Will to hate the tour life as much as he did. He had to spend more time alone or with a babysitter, away from his mama. She wasn't there to tuck him in every night. He was sleeping in hotels or on a bus, not in his bed that had always been right by hers. Then, right around Will's tenth birthday, Naomi started to notice some odd things. Odd things that put Will in danger. So they went to New York.... And Will went to camp. Naomi, now she won't admit it, but she cried for weeks after she dropped him off. She couldn't sleep without him there, now completely alone. Alone for the first time in her life. She missed her baby boy, his sunshine smiles, his laughter, his stubborn curls- Hell, she missed the fact that they couldn't be in separate rooms for more than five minutes before Will started to get nervous. She missed the way he'd brush through her hair whenever he was sitting next to her, how he always curled up to her side and tucked himself under her arms. So for the first time in ten years, she called her mama. Naomi was 30 when she moved back in with her parents. She couldn't write songs any more, every one came out sounding wrong, half complete. Things didn't make sense. So she worked on their farm, helped them keep up the chores and maintain the fields Most of her cousins worked for the family business too, so she saw them almost daily either out on the fields or while dropping off shipments. She could feel the way they judged her. She left with that baby years ago. Now she's here and her baby ain't. How must she look as mother? If only they knew, how hard it was for her. So, with Chiron's permission and direct instructions of care (how stupid is that, Naomi having to learn how to take care of HER baby from someone else) Naomi brought Will home for the school year. Her parents LOVED him. They adopted the roles of Gammie and Pawpaw quickly. "Oh look at that smile," they'd coo and pinch at Will cheeks. But Will didn't laugh the same. He was hesitant, shakier. Wore an ace bandage around his wrist. His arms and legs were littered with light scars. Hell, his hair was blonde now! Will, always her baby, didn't look like her baby. Naomi was scared for him. But Will was still a kid, he'd run and laugh with her cousins' kids, he made friends at school, he shared stories of what life was like during the rest of the year (even though Naomi had heard it all in letters), he Pawpaw out with the animals on the farm. Her baby was back. She wouldn't be able to keep him for long, and god knew how much different he was gonna be next time she saw him, but for now she had her baby.
woops sorry that was a long one

Forced to Believe Chapter 5- Becoming Heel
Chapter Summary: Melanie and Jon decide to try out dating, Morgan deals with being the newest member of The Shield. As she continued to work with the boys, Melanie felt like she wasn't doing enough to truly become a heel on TV until she gets suggested to do something to The Undertaker
Words: 4,000+
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, I am Michael Cole and with me is the newest member of The Shield, Morgan Lopez. So Morgan, how did you get into the WWE?"
Morgan sat across from Cole to do a little interview for WWE's website. She smiled and answered, "Well, Triple H and the McMahons were very reluctant to hire me as a diva when they found out I was related to Chyna in 2010. Not sure what the beef is but I guess some assumed things would cause problems since Chyna and Triple H had a past together and all that jazz. It isn't any of my business, so I have no intention of doing that. All I wanted to do was be a WWE diva. I wanted to show them that I am not just a pretty face. But they just wanted me as a manager and to not wrestle. So, when they said that, I chose not to sign the contract and left. That's when I started doing more Indy shows. Years later, Vince saw how good I wrestled and he signed me up to FCW and then to NXT. And now...I'm finally here in the WWE."
"About Chyna, do you keep in touch with her?"
"Yes. I didn't know she was my cousin until I was around 15 or so. I never met her until I was 21. Her parents didn't want me around her and I remember Chyna talking about how she didn't get along with her family. When we met, it was emotional. She's such a cool person."
"Any favorite female wrestlers?"
"Victoria, Chyna, Ivory, Molly Holly, and Gail Kim. I love Lita and Trish as well but I started to really have my eye on these five divas. They won me over and they are my favorites. I had a one on one talk with Gail Kim and Victoria about wrestling and they really motivated me."
"Any other talents you have?"
"I can dance. Long story short, I was forced by my mother to learn how to dance because my father is a dance instructor. I hated it at first but it worked out in the end because I usually help the divas and superstars with their dances. So it's a win win situation. It's been hard but I survived. I actually grew to love dance now,"
"What type of dance instructor are you?"
"Well, I like to let them put their own little flavor into their dance to make it their own. Not just follow me all the time."
"How'd it feel hitting Dean with those chair shots at TLC?"
"Awesome! We did this in CZW, so it was like a flashback to me. Plus, he hit me with a chair during CZW, so I guess we're even."
"But you hit him 15 times!"
"Guess he has to hit me 14 times."
"How does it feel being in The Shield?"
"I'll have to grin and bear it. But it's going to be very interesting and I can't wait to see my journey with those wackjobs."
"Sweet or sour grapes?"
"Sour! I love sour stuff! One time, I ate all these different types of sour candy and my tongue went numb. Bad idea, don't try it at home! I had to wait to feel my tongue again after a few hours. It was pretty scary."
"Who would you like to wrestle in the future?"
"Naomi, Natalya and I wouldn't mind wrestling Chyna."
"Favorite match type?"
"TLC matches."
"Favorite Undertaker match?"
"The end of an era match."
"Favorite Team?"
"Team Xtreme, and DX."
"Do you have a favorite storyline?"
"You know, I really love all the Trish Stratus feuds. They all were awesome."
"People have been saying you've been bringing some of the Attitude Era back."
"Yeah because I was fighting The Shield and that I did Chyna's WrestleMania entrance. I requested to do her entrance, so I was lucky enough that WWE decided to let me try it. I have my fingers crossed to do it again soon."
"PG or PG 14?"
"Honestly, PG. It's pretty fun."
"What divas match would you like to be in?"
"I want to be in a divas tables match, just like Laycool, Beth and Natalya have."
"What about a pillow fight?"
"Never been a fan. But I do applaud Christy Hemme for being undefeated in Pillow Fights."
"Seems you've been doing a lot of research, why is that?"
"Knowledge will help me out, especially when I watch my opponents' matches to get an idea of what I'm going up against."
"Do you have a problem with anyone?"
"The Bellas."
"Really? Why?"
"You'll find out when the time comes," she replied, implying about Total Divas.
"Are you in a relationship?"
"You tell me." She countered with a smile.
"Would you like to be in a video game?"
"Yes! I really want to be in WWE 2K14. Hopefully they will have me. Please let me make the cut!"
"What do you do before a match?"
"Listen to music. I go into my own little world and calm myself down and hope that everything goes well. I usually listen to motivating music like the new Smackdown theme, born to run. Gosh I love that song! And I also stretch if I'm against an opponent who does a lot of submissions. And I make sure to pray before my matches."
"One last question, what are your plans for WWE?"
"I want to become Diva's champion and beat Maryse's longest title hold of over 200 days. I also want to make sure to make a name for myself even without a title. So please, keep cheering me on!."
"I hope everything goes well. Well, Ladies and Gentlemen, you have been here with me and Morgan Lopez."
'Raw'
Kaitlyn is in the ring, waiting for Morgan, who is her partner, to go against Alicia and Aksana.
Before the match, Morgan tweets 'Interesting crowd tonight. Curious to see how the crowd will react to me. #Raw'
Morgan's theme comes on and she comes out to a big pop.
"Nice..." she said with a smirk and headed to the ring. When her theme fades, the crowd cheers 'Morgan's awesome!'
"And the crowd, letting Morgan know how much she's loved, despite being the newest member of The Shield." Cole said.
Kaitlyn starts the match against Alicia as Morgan looks on.
'We want Morgan! We want Morgan!' The crowd chanted.
"And this crowd is electric tonight!" King says.
The crowd screams when Morgan gets tagged in. Aksana gets tagged in and they look at each other.
Morgan takes control of Aksana.
'Thorn of justice!' The crowd cheered, coming up with more chants, and even chanted 'Kaitlyn' as she and Morgan looked around at the crowd in shock and amazement. The Raw after Wrestlemania crowd was so lively.
Morgan hits Aksana with the backfire. Alicia tries to get in the ring but gets speared by Kaitlyn as Morgan pins Aksana to win the match.
"Here are your winners! Kaitlyn and Morgan!" Justin announced as the ref raised their hands
'WWE Main Event'
It was during WWE Main Event where Seth and Roman were facing Heath and Jinder. Morgan was forced to manage them at ringside. She really didn't want to but here she was and she managed to tough it out, impressed with their teamwork.
She watches as Seth hits the blackout on Jinder to win the match. Once The Shield won, Heath and Jinder continued to brawl with The Shield.
"This match is over!" Josh Mathews exclaimed on commentary as Morgan made her way inside the ring
"Come on! Enough already!" She exclaimed.
Roman and Seth attack Jinder while Heath recovers. Turning his attention to her, Heath glares at her and starts to taunt her
"We all know Morgan has problems with 3MB." Miz said on commentary.
"Get out of my face!" she shouted and punched him in the face, making him stumble back
"Uh oh. Morgan better get out of there." Josh warned as Heath was about to attack her.
All of a sudden, Roman spears Heath before he can get to her as Morgan looks on in astonishment. She stumbles down and backs up to a corner.
"Morgan wasn't expecting that," Miz said
Jinder gets on the apron but gets speared by Roman too. While Roman was distracted by Jinder, Drew slid into the ring, making his way to Morgan.
"Think you are off the hook?" he asked, about to attack but gets clotheslined by Rollins and hit with the blackout.
The two Shield members help Morgan up.
"You all right?" Seth asked, in a sincere concerned tone.
"Yeah...thanks...I guess." Morgan reluctantly replied.
'Backstage'
After the match, Morgan was walking behind Seth and Roman. She couldn't help but think about why they saved her, so she decided to speak up.
"Okay, I got to ask. Why did you two save me?" She stopped walking and watched as they stopped and turned around as well
"Morgan, we're not bad guys. You are a part of The Shield. Chosen to be a part of The Shield. We have each other's backs." Seth placed a hand on her shoulder.
"And we have yours too, whether you like it or not," Roman added.
"So relax. The Shield ain't all that bad. We're not gonna let anything happen to you." Seth smiled softly, which shocked her even more.
"Did-did you just smile at me?" She asked in awe.
"Well, we're not robots or unemotional," Seth teased. "Learn to trust us, all right?"
"Wow. Okay. This uh...this is going to have to be processed in my brain. Yeah, well, thank you. I'm gonna go now." She walked away
'Next Week, Raw'
While Ryback and Cena have their segment, Ryback leaves the ring and then The Shield comes out and attacks Cena as Morgan looks on at ringside.
"John Cena is being attacked by The Shield and Ryback is just standing there," Cole looked on.
"The Shield completely manhandling Cena."
"Do you think Morgan is comfortable being around The Shield?" King asked, noticing she was just watching and not going along with it.
"She better get used to it," JBL said.
Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose hit the triple powerbomb on Cena and then Ambrose motioned Morgan to get in the ring as they stood tall over Cena with their fists out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'April's Hotel Room'
After the show, Mel hangs in April's hotel room to paint her nails.
"There." Melanie looked proud of her work.
"Thank you!" April said with a grin. "It looks amazing. I really didn't feel like painting them tonight,"
Melanie's phone rang and she answered it. "It's the most beautiful grape monster in the world, here. What can I do for you on this lovely night?" She answered, earning a giggle from April.
"Grapes, you gotta help us," Colby says in panic.
"Whoa, whoa, what's going on." She got off April's bed.
"It's Jon, he's drunk and Joe and I need your help."
"Is he okay!? Where are you guys?"
"We're in the hotel, we need to get him to your room since it's closer."
"Huh? Why not in your room?"
"You don't care about him?" Colby countered.
"I do care about him! Look, I'm on my way." Melanie hung up. "I gotta go, see you later."
She rushed to her hotel room door to see Joe and Colby carrying a drunken Jon in their arms. It was so weird, like why couldn't he be in their room resting but by all means she usually helps him when he's drunk so she went along with it
"Jeesh, I told you guys to stop him from drinking so much. You know how that makes me worry!" she scolded
"Calm down, we didn't know he would get wasted like this." Joe replied
Melanie rolled her eyes and opened her door, letting them take Jon inside and put him on the couch
"Can you babysit him tonight? If he's with us, he's gonna ask for you." Colby said
"For me?" she asked
"Yeah. We gotta go." Joe abruptly said as he and Colby quickly left
"Okay...that was weird..." she looked confused and turned her attention to Jon who had his eyes closed and was resting on her couch. She sighed and sat down to watch him.
She truly did like him. Ever since the CZW days. Back then she was in that horrible relationship with Greg but she always wondered what would have happened if she just moved on from Greg quicker and tried dating Jon. She was just happy to be with Jon again. And bonus points for being able to work with him together on the road.
Assuming he was sleeping, she spoke her mind, "You worry me. A lot...I don't want you to keep doing this to yourself," she brushed some of his hair back.
After she didn't hear a response, she sighed. But then she felt a hand move as Jon slowly held her hand and wrapped his fingers around hers.
"There's this girl...she's always been there for me..." he murmured as she looked down in surprise.
"What?"
"She made my birthday worth celebrating again...made me enjoy spending time with her family during the holidays,"
She started to smile. "Who?"
"I really like you..." he mumbled as she widened her eyes.
"W-what?" she started to get butterflies in her stomach. Unable to stay fake sleep he opened his eyes and sat up as she started to giggle with a blush, "You're not really drunk are you."
"I really thought that plan would work...I'm messing up big time,"
"No, you didn't. Why didn't you tell me? That you liked me?"
"Because I don't feel like I'm good enough for you." He admitted, "And I didn't think you felt the same,"
"Why would you say that?"
"You've seen where I came from."
"Who cares about that? That doesn't matter to me at all. You're good enough for me. I've liked you for a long time now. Years. I've just been nervous to take that step,"
Hearing her feeling the same made Jon happy as he asked her, "Then you wouldn't mind being my girlfriend? Can we try?"
She pulled him in for a sweet kiss, "Of course we can," she grinned
"Yes!" He exclaimed as he made a fist while she laughed.
'Next week, Raw'
The camera shows a helicopter landing and then The Shield walks out as the crowd cheers. "Wow. It's The Shield. The Shield are here Michael!" JBL exclaimed.
"Indeed it is. A fantastic arrival" Cole said.
Later, the titantron shows Morgan with The Shield in a dark area.
"Ambrose."
"Reigns."
"Rollins."
"Lopez..."
"And we, are The Shield. And we went through great lengths to get here tonight." Seth said.
"For twenty years...two decades, the Undertaker has been the judge, jury and executioner in WWE, he would decide who was guilty and throw out his brand of justice and sends his victims to rest in peace. Well, I don't know...who gave him that right." Ambrose mentioned. "So far no one has been capable of stopping him."
"Until now." Reigns added
"For the first time in three years, the Undertaker has come back to Raw to step in the ring." Ambrose said. "These days, The Shield is the law and we are the judge, jury and executioners, we make the rules."
"So tonight Undertaker, you, your brother, and your little buddy Daniel Bryan, at your expense, we'll make our greatest statement. Own the night." Seth went on
"For the first time in the Undertaker's life, he will know what justice tastes like," Ambrose guaranteed.
"Believe in The Shield." Morgan signed off with a frown and the camera cuts off.
"Do you see Morgan cooperating with The Shield?" JBL asked happily. "She finally believes!"
"Or maybe it's because she has no choice," Cole mentioned.
'Later on'
'Interested to see what my #NewWeirdTeam is planning tonight. #WatchYourBack' Morgan tweets.
Backstage, it shows Daniel and Kane talking. "Where is he? Is he here yet?" Daniel asked.
"When he's here, you'll know it." Kane replied
"How are we ever supposed to beat The Shield if we don't go over strategy?"
"You don't have to worry about the Brothers of Destruction."
"First of all, it's Team Hell No and The Undertaker. Not the Brothers of Destruction and Daniel Bryan. Second of all, I am worried. Nobody has defeated The Shield and we all need to be on the same page. Can't you just like give him a call or something?"
"Give him a call? He doesn't exactly carry a cell phone."
"Well, he needs to be here. Because I came up with a great game plan for tonight. First I'm going to start the match."
"Daniel, wait wait. The Undertaker does not take orders."
"But I have diagrams. Diagrams! What is with you tonight? Is this because we haven't hugged in a while?"
"Daniel...If I get the Undertaker you have to promise not to show him diagrams. And whatever you do...do not try to give him a hug."
"Okay, I promise."
"Good." Kane looked straight ahead. "Hey-" He exclaimed but then the camera fell down and it showed Team Hell No hurt on the floor and pairs of black shoes
"You sure that was a good idea?" Morgan's voice was heard as the black shoes walked away.
'In The Ring'
During The Shield's match against Team Hell No and The Undertaker, Morgan watches at ringside as Taker delivers the leg drop and prepares for the chokeslam.
"Hey!" She shouted as she got on the apron and tried to distract the ref.
But then Taker locks eyes with her as the crowd cheers. Her eyes widen and she is about to quickly get off the apron but screams when Taker grabs her by the neck.
"Oh no!" JBL exclaimed.
"Oh yes!" Cole cheered.
Taker raises her up to get in the ring as Morgan tries to get him off of her. He is about to chokeslam her but Dean attacks him as he releases her. Morgan slips out the ring and holds her neck. Seth gets in the ring but then Taker grabs Ambrose for the chokeslam and then him. Suddenly, Reigns spears him. Reigns pins Taker and only gets a 2 count as he looks surprised.
"What!?" Morgan yelled, releasing her neck.
"Reigns can't believe it!" JBL exclaimed.
"What is wrong with you ref?! Count faster!" Morgan yelled, showing shades that she was slowly getting into the idea of being a member of The Shield.
Later, Taker tags in Kane as he takes control of Rollins. Rollins tags in Ambrose and he goes on the top rope, only to get caught by Kane, getting chokeslammed. Kane tags in Daniel and he gets on the turnbuckle but then Reigns pushes him down. Morgan quickly moves out of the way as Taker runs to fight Reigns. She stands in front of the commentary table, looking at the action while Kane and Taker brawl with Seth and Roman. Daniel goes for a headbutt but Ambrose quickly moves out of the way and pins him for the win.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute!" King exclaimed as the ref counted to three.
"The Shield are still undefeated!" JBL praised.
Ambrose quickly gets out of the ring as Morgan grins and holds him. He holds onto her for support to stand up.
"And the winners of this match, The Shield!" Justin Roberts announced as The Shield quickly left the arena.
"Do you believe in The Shield now?" JBL asked.
"How can you not? " Cole asked.
Morgan tweets, 'Almost got chokeslammed by the Undertaker. #Awesome #MomentIWillNotForget'
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Smackdown'
"Nice save last week," Morgan said, walking backstage with Ambrose.
"Heh, you're thanking me?" He gave her a confused look and stopped walking and so did she.
"Well, you're the one who chose to save me."
"Touche."
"But seriously..." she gave him a small smile, "Thank you,"
'Later'
The Shield are in another quiet area, ready for another promo.
"Lopez..."
"Rollins..."
"Reigns..."
"Ambrose."
"And we are...The Shield." Morgan announced.
"Monday night, we stood face to face with the tag team champions, Team Hell No and the Phenom himself, the Undertaker." Ambrose said. "Oh, what happened?"
"What always happens." Seth added.
"Justice prevails and The Shield were victorious once again." Morgan said with a smirk
"We broke the unbreakable. It's an injustice that Team Hell No are still holding the tag team titles." Roman said.
"Not for long, but what the true injustice is that the Undertaker ran away from Raw with his soul still intacted." Seth said.
"Not for long. And we did what we said what we were going to do on Monday night. But it still feels like that something's missing. I don't feel total satisfaction. I think it's cause the Deadman is still walking, he's still breathing. Tonight I face the Undertaker one on one. And I got an itch that needs scratching. I'm going to do what no one was able to do in 21 WrestleManias. Tonight, I'm going to beat Undertaker, and when I say that, you better believe that if it's the last thing I do. I am going to beat the Undertaker tonight." Ambrose guaranteed.
"Undertaker...you won't rest in peace. You'll believe." Morgan said.
"You will believe in The Shield." Reigns said and the camera cuts off.
After filming, Jon praised Melanie with a smile, "Nice job,"
"Really? I feel like I did a terrible job," Melanie replied with a frown.
"What?" Colby asked in shock.
"How so?" Joe asked.
"Maybe it's because I still feel like a face. I haven't really heard the crowd boo me since they always love to cheer me." Melanie pondered. "I feel like I need to do something for them to truly hate me,"
"Hey, the crowd loves you for you. Heel, Face, or Tweener." Joe reassured her.
"Thanks." She bumped her fist with him, appreciative of his kind words
"Hey, how about we talk to Creative and see if you could do something to The Undertaker tonight?" Colby suggested.
"Not a bad idea." She agreed
'In The Ring'
During Dean's match with The Undertaker, the rest of The Shield are watching at ringside. As Dean takes control, he taunts The Undertaker by doing his taunt. But then Taker grabs his throat while everyone watches in surprise.
"Oh look out! Undertaker back to his feet." Cole said.
But then Ambrose kicks him to break free of the hold. Moments later, Taker finally hits the chokeslam. Rollins tries to distract Taker but gets hit by him. Morgan decides to distract the ref as Ambrose hits Taker with a low blow. He hit Taker with a DDT but only gets a 2 count.
"No! You got to be kidding me!" Morgan screamed in frustration and banged on the mat. "Son of a biscuit!" she suddenly shouted, making the crowd laugh
Reigns slowly turned his head to Morgan, smirking out of amusement. That got a chuckle out of him
"What?" She asked him, shrugging.
"Son of a biscuit?" Cole recalled
"Don't judge me!" She snapped at Cole as he had his hands up in defense, taken aback by her outburst.
"Don't mess with the Thorn of Justice, Cole." JBL warned.
"I didn't think she would snap at me like that. Jeesh, did Ambrose get into her head? I hope Ambrose doesn't turn her into a Harley Quinn."
"What? She's far from a Harley Quinn. She's doing what she does best."
"I'm serious John, Ambrose got into her head. You've seen how she changed these past weeks. Ambrose did something to her."
"You're crazy, he didn't do anything to her!"
"Ambrose is a wackjob. Morgan said it, I said it, and the WWE Universe said it. He did something to her."
Moments later, the crowd started tweeting about how Morgan yelled Son of a biscuit and Harley Quinn started to trend on Twitter.
The crowd tweets: 'Lol, Cole called Morgan a #HarleyQuinn'
'Guess Ambrose (The Joker) brainwashed Morgan into a #HarleyQuinn #Smackdown'
'LMAO! #SonOfABiscuit. #Smackdown'
The Undertaker traps Ambrose in the Hell's Gate and he taps out while his teammates freak out. The crowd cheers but then Rollins and Reigns attack Taker while Morgan helps out Ambrose.
"The Hounds of Justice unloading on The Undertaker." Cole looked on.
Rollins and Reigns beat Taker out of the ring but then Taker starts to fight back. Ambrose recovers and is about to hit Taker but gets hit with a chair which startles Morgan
"Oh no, no no no." she started walking back, looking nervous.
Rollins gets on the barricade but gets his neck grabbed by The Undertaker. Thankfully, Reigns spears Taker while Morgan helps Seth up. Ambrose grabs a chair and is about to hit Taker but gives it to Morgan, instead, sparking the crowd's interest.
"Hit him!" Seth encouraged her as she glanced at the chair and then her teammates.
"Don't do it, Morgan. You're brainwashed. Don't do it!" Cole shouted while Ambrose got behind her.
"Do it," Ambrose whispered in her ear.
Once Morgan sees Taker trying to get up, she whacks him in the face with the chair, earning loud boos from the crowd.
"That's my girl," Ambrose praised as she grinned in delight at what she had done.
"Her mind is poisoned by Ambrose," Cole said with disappointment as she gave the chair to Ambrose and he hit Taker with it. Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose deliver the triple powerbomb on him afterward. "Undertaker driven through the table!"
"Pick em' up." Morgan motioned as Ambrose, Rollins, and Reigns picked up The Undertaker.
"What are they planning now?" Cole asked before she struck him with a spinning kick to the face. "Oh! Spinning kick in the face by Morgan!" He exclaimed as the crowd boos The Shield.
"Believe in The Shield!" Seth yelled as the four had their fists out with the crowd chanting 'You Tapped out.'
"That was justice Taker. That was justice." Ambrose declared.
Morgan tweets, '#SonOfABiscuit had it coming. #Smackdown #BelieveInTheShield'

So this new ROTTMNT OC... Tell me more about her!!!!
What do each of the boys + April and Splints think of the lil addition? Who does she seem to favor or lean toward more? Does she have or get any Ninpo? I'm assuming she's welcomed as a Hamato to do so? HER IN THE FUTURE?????
... And what would her and Tams interacting be like you think? 👀
*cue evil laughter* which one? I have like 2 now, both of them you know but I just have never introduced to this blog-
But I assume you're talking about Danny, so let me give a little picrew and backstory (I'll find the picrew link to the first one at some point but I wanna share this first, also link to the second one)
This little bitch right here is Danny, a trans fem witch, let me explain her-
I made Danny like a year ago then forgot about her until I started up a rp with Cherry and I've been using her for more things ever since.
Danielle (used to be called David) Gray was born 300 years ago in Italy. You might be questioning how she can live so long, we will get to it. She was then known as one of her parents two children, their sons. She was told and forced to be practically perfect because they had an image to uphold and would not let a child ruin it. Sooner or later, her older brother, Lucas Gray, ran away when she was 100, leaving her alone until she also found her escape around 50-100 years later. She had somehow found her way to the hidden cities and found a way to the one in New York.
There she changes her name, her face, everything about her that she wanted. Danny then made her way to the surface after staying in the hidden city for a long while, making friends with her roommates, Aqua, Nora and Selene. She then meets Tamsin, who she met before when she was first adjusting to New York, a friend. They reconnect and Tamsin would probably introduce her to April.
The way she meets the turtles is a bit different tho. You see, her and her roommates like to have tea days like every Friday and she wanted to get yet another tea set for the house. Need less to say, Leo ends up crashing throw the window of the little tea shop and landing in front of Danny. Instead of being horrified like any normal human, Danny is just really curious about them, she wants to know more about these turtle mutants. I think the boys would be confused by this, but after a while accept her as a new friend. She'd get along well with Splinter and April, with her being calm one on one, but still chaos with others. Danny would soon get closer with the boys and ends up hanging around Leo and Donnie the most, Donnie cuz chaos and Leo cuz she loves to annoy him. She ends up getting closer with Leo and even ends up dating him tho.
As for if she has Ninpo: yes, she has her magic so she never really uses it. She doesn't even really realize she has it until it just kinda shows up during a fight. Her Ninpo is kinda a transportation tool, it's really just like inhuman speed (because of this I think Leo gives her the nickname Zips lmao).
And for her in the future, this part goes two ways.
● Bad timeline: Danny would end up fighting on the front lines, but only for a little while. She has this thing where if she experiences too much stress or overwhelming emotions, she just has this ringing in her ears that can last years, because of the high amounts of stress in the resistance and everything, she becomes mostly deaf. She can still technically hear, but not well enough to understand people without them having to sign out what they mean to her. Her and Leo do get unofficially married during this time tho, even having two kids: Naomi and Michael (if people want I'll make a follow-up post about them and everything). She doesn't make it to the end of the apocalypse tho, she dies during a Krang attack on one of the resistance bases. The entire place blew up basically.
● Good timeline: Danny and Leo would get closer after stopping the Krang invasion. They would get married later on with a over-the-top wedding and everything. They still do have Naomi and Michael, but also another daughter named Suzu (once again, I'll make a follow-up about their kids if y'all wanna see). That timeline I haven't really though too much about tho.
Also her and Tams interactions are so funny in my head it's just like-
Danny: ya think I could fit 20 marshmallows in my mouth?
Tams: ... you're an idiot- and a coward, do 30
And about how she lives so long. Her magic keeps her alive. You see, magic in my head is basically like a life force for some, it can extend someone's life to an extent, but either how much magic Danny has in her body from connecting with her ancestors and members of her family, she's basically immortality from natural causes. Magic is kinda like blood tho, if you lose enough if it, you're gonna die, so too much spell casting or bleeding out since it it literally connected to your blood in a way, you're dead. Explaining how she can die in the bad timeline.
They're so silly I love them-

HI LEE sorry you're bored.. hmmm okay. are there any of your ocs who havent interacted with each other who would be fun to throw together somehow? under what circumstances/in what setting would that be the most fun/interesting? and like. how would you picture the interaction going
OH MY GODD????????????????????????? lily u rule always ANSWER BELOW THE CUT!!!
DANGANRONPA CHARACTERS ONLYYY
sae is the oldest danganronpa oc ive got and also a teacher so if i put her in a room with any other oc she immediately becomes the Wise Old Mentor. ryobe especially treats her like that one pocket mirror michael jackson post where he asks "sae should i get the meal or just the sandwich" and she so wisely from the corner replies "get the fries sonny ..... you will need the energy in the coming days 🙂" and ryobe tears up
WAIT STOPP HOLD ON I JUST REALISED THAT I CAN MAKE ALL OF THESE GUYS GO TO SCHOOL TOGETHER BC THEYRE ALL DANGANRONPA CHARACTERS ok yea so hopes peak is where they all meet. dr:50th are in their final years and billie is JUST starting out but sometimes hangs out with them bc yoshito invited her to their table after he saw her sitting all alone and felt terrible. she just does her homework with them LMAO
naomi goes and hides in sae's classroom soooo often because sae a) doesnt care to get in her trouble for it and b) can either talk so much as a distraction or just sit on the other side of the room and leave naomi alone for the entire period depending on what is needed. theres probably been multiple times where naomi has gone "ok i need to get to my next class thanks for letting me stay here ms sae" only for sae to wake up and go "oh....................... you were here? yea ok good luck in algebra :)"
they interact with each other already in canon but this just needs to be said. rie and yoshito form a study group early in the year and occasionally invite mika or naomi if they really need motivation to do better at school. yoshito and rie realise this study group is actually really good and slowly invite the others into it but the more people they invite the less productive it becomes until they eventually have created two study groups: one with their friends and one with just the two of them again LMAO
ANDDDD FOR FUN BECAUSE IVE BEEN REALLY INTO DND/DND-RELATED MEDIA. bringing my dnd characters into the mix with my danganronpa ocs is extremely funny and also i love giving my ocs dnd stats ALWAYS. grins :)
elese and erin (glamour bard) would be so fucking funny because elese is just sooooo immediately petty for no reason???????????? and pippy truly could not give less of a shit. like there is zero reaction to any of elese's passive aggressiveness. elese can be like "woowwww pippy... that song was certainly loud! 😃" and pippy would go "THANKS!!!!" and then minor illusion a bunch of confetti around the two of them while theyre trying to sneak through a dungeon
and while we're talking about elese i do think she gets instantly humbled by rie (eloquence bard/pact of archfey warlock) LMAO. they both have very similar means of persuasion and speak very noble-like despite elese being the only one actually from nobility, however rie is juuuuuuuuuuuust ever so slightly more persuasive. juuuuuuuust ever so slightly able to get people on her side with her charm (and the silver tongue feature). it drives elese a bit mad but she cant actually complain about it until the moment she figures out rie is a warlock and she throws her hands in the air and yells I KNEW IT (she did not know it). but then once she gets over this i can see the two of them bonding over quite a lot in their life i think :)
since we're putting the same classes together nowhere and sae (path of tempest barbarian) are also cool. cuz nowhere isnt necessarily one to repress her emotions, she just unfortunately has quite a lot to be mad at and BECAUSE she gets angry her magic tends to go everywhere. meanwhile sae absolutely spends a LOT of time going through the adventure thinking that she is a strength-based ranger because she absolutely refuses to go into a rage during battle. so he spends so much time thinking to himself "hmmmmm well i do hold the knowledge one might expect from a ranger but i am incapable of certain magical feats that rangers have.... 🤔 oh well guess i am a late bloomer 🙂", while also greatly assisting nowhere in rearranging her thoughts and where she's expressing anger. and then one day during some huge climactic moment sae actually finally rages and it's terrible for so many people and shes like Ohhhh Wait Nowhere Help. Hellppppp
putting tinni and naomi (scout and THEN phantom rogue) is like putting two scared deer together except one of them is actually for real a deer
OK THATS ALL I GOT FOR NOW i love dnd/baldurs gate aus alwaysssss i do think however a few of these people would have a heart attack if a tadpole went into their brain but thats a problem for another time. BYE THANK U LILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shabby studies in meaning making
Some disturbing revisitations to PTSD!Cas
7x21
CASTIEL Yes. Of course. Oh. Outside today, in the garden, I followed a honeybee. I saw the route of flowers. It's all right there, the whole plan. There's nothing to add.
This means, the plan is complete. We shouldn't add anything to it. Certainly not free will.
///
CASTIEL Will you look at her? My caretaker. All of that thorny pain. So beautiful.
Not much here, except he likes Meg.
///
CASTIEL Yes. I heard a ping that pierced me, and, well, you wouldn't have heard it unless you were an angel at the time.
CASTIEL Oh. Of course. Now I understand.
CASTIEL You were the ones. Well... I guess that makes sense.
CASTIEL If someone was going to free the Word from the vault of the earth, it would end up being you two. Oh, I love you guys.
CASTIEL pulls DEAN and SAM into a hug.
Some contradictory relief here; the relief that Sam and Dean are bringing meaning to chaos.
///
CASTIEL Did you know that a cat's penis is sharply barbed along its shaft? I know for a fact the females were not consulted about that.
Sex. Cas is mentioning it A LOT. Like he's trying to distance himself from it in a clinical, "watcher" kind of way. Probably he can't understand why he wants it, what possible connection if could offer. Perhaps he's disgusted with himself. He'll revisit it often: repetition, sex and wars. Bees like flowers because they feed on their nectar and pollen, and they facilitate sex between flowers.
///
CASTIEL This is the handwriting of Metatron.
CASTIEL Uh... "Tree”? [He looks at SAM and DEAN.] "Horse"? "Fiddler crab"? I can't read it. It wasn't meant for angels.
Wryness. Also re: above and Word freed from the vault; angels aren't meant to make meaning.
///
CASTIEL Don't like conflict.
CASTIEL disappears and the stone tablet drops to the floor, breaking into three pieces.
Dismissive avoidant in full swing. No emotions, no participation, no war-making. He breaks everything he touches. NOTE: The angel tablet breaks into THREE pieces, representing Sam, Dean AND Cas.
///
DEAN walks over to stand in front of CASTIEL.
DEAN You realize you just broke God's Word?
CASTIEL looks away and DEAN sits down at the table opposite him.
WOW. And it broke into THREE pieces! Cas is ever the glue, an essential component of free will.
///
DEAN It's Sam's thing, isn't it? You taking on his, uh, cage-match scars. I'm guessing that's what broke your bank, right?
CASTIEL Well, it took... everything to get me here.
DEAN What are you talking about, man?
This is VERY mysterious. Makes you think maybe there's more to Daphne, or more to Naomi journeying to Purgatory to get Cas back. That Cas is more important than he realizes?
///
CASTIEL Dean, I know you want different answers.
DEAN No, I want you to button up your coat and help us take down Leviathans. Do you remember what you did?
CASTIEL holds up the board game “Sorry!” He shakes it once and the board and pieces appear on the table, set up ready to play. CASTIEL sets the box aside.
CASTIEL Do you want to go first?
They're venting their frustration at each other through talking about other things and being indirect.
I think of the conversation about Adam & Michael from Season 15. They're both symbolically irritated with one another. Dean is seriously wounded: Bobby is dead, he almost lost Sam, and then he got Cas back and promptly lost him again right away. For a guy carrying around another guy's coat, Dean's definitely at sea.
Cas is essentially saying in code: YOU APOLOGIZE TO ME FIRST.
///
DEAN picks up a “Sorry!” card.
Dean's playing! Visually, he's sorry. We know he is because of how we saw him sing along to "I'm All Out of Love" by Air Supply. We saw the conversations between Bobby and Sam. We saw the coat Dean carried around. But Dean doesn't get his meaning across. He's too hurt.
///
CASTIEL You know, we weren't sure at first which monkeys were gonna make it. No offense, but I [DEAN moves a marker on the board] was backing the Neanderthals because their poetry was... just amazing. It's in perfect tune [CASTIEL picks up a card] with the spheres. But in the end, it was you – the [CASTIEL moves a marker] homo sapiens sapiens. You guys ate the apple, invented pants.
Cas is distancing himself from humanity, putting Dean under a microscope and moving as FAR from him as possible.
We're not alike, angels and humans. I'm above you, away from you. It's a callback to all of Uriel's mud monkey insults, it's a callback to, "You're just a man."
///
DEAN Cas, where can we find this, uh, Metatron? Is he still alive?
CASTIEL I'm sorry. I – I think you have to go back to start.
DEAN moves a marker.
DEAN This is important.
CASTIEL motions for DEAN to pick up another card. DEAN does and moves another marker.
DEAN I think Metatron could stop a lot of bad. You understand that?
CASTIEL picks up another card.
CASTIEL We live in a "sorry" universe. It's engineered to create conflict. I mean, why should I prosper from... your misfortune? [CASTIEL puts down a marker and moves DEAN’s marker back to the start.] But these are the rules. I didn't make them.
Cas is giving into nihilism. Nothing matters. The universe sucks and is neverending conflict. Angels are angels and humans are humans.
Human suffer and angels hoard their souls as winter-food in Heaven, perhaps.
They are fundamentally incompatible. I didn't make the rules, Dean. The universe is harsh and unforgiving. I tried being God but there were stll unbendable rules I could not overcome.
///
DEAN You made some of them. When you tried to become God, when you cut that hole into that wall.
CASTIEL Dean... it's your move.
///
Cas ignores his role in any of it. Cas has completely withdrawn from life. From this entire game.
///
DEAN pounds a fist on the table and swipes the board to the floor.
DEAN Forget the damn game! Forget the game, Cas.
Dean hates the game, obviously. Chuck's stupid, stupid game. He wants to tear up the rulebook, still--NOT simply follow the honeybee into the garden and consider it complete. It's NOT complete, it's not laid out; it's worthy of rewriting. Dean still wants to rewrite the rules OF the game.
///
CASTIEL I'm sorry, Dean.
DEAN No. You're playing "Sorry!"
And he is. Cas is shunting all the responsibility to the nihilism and coldness of the universe, seeing himself as a cog prospering from the misfortune of others.
Furthermore: He denigrates humanity as nothing more than sets of monkeys that angels were "backing or not backing," like a GAME. That chasm between angel and human seems wide and uncrossable here.
Dean hates the inescapable game.
///
CASTIEL is picking up the game pieces. He stops and looks up.
DEAN What?
Yet, Cas resolves to KEEP PLAYING THE GAME, just as he does later in Golden Times.
15x06 >>> MELLY: Thing is, taking yourself out of the game doesn't really change the game CASTIEL: Yeah. If I stay, nothing changes. It's time for me to get back in the game.
