I want to be very clear about why it's important to protest what's going on in Portland. In America, we're supposed to have this little thing called "the rule of law". This is how it works: law enforcement officers obtain probable cause, which they demonstrate to a judge, who then signs a warrant. When the police arrest a suspect, they identify themselves as police and explain the charges. The suspect is informed of their rights and is placed into a marked police vehicle for transport. The case is then adjudicated through the court system. That is not what's happening in Portland. Nameless, badge-less agents are grabbing people off the streets essentially at random, throwing them into unmarked cars, and driving them to a secondary location. No warrants. No arrests. No charges. These agents do not wear identification and it is impossible to tell what agency, if any, they belong to. They are uninvited, unwanted interlopers, who are completely ignoring the rule of law. Imagine you're a young woman in downtown Portland, walking home after a long day of exercising your First Amendment rights. An unmarked van screeches to a stop beside you, and 3 dudes in camouflage jump out, grab you, and shove you into their van. They put a bag over your head and drive off. You have no idea who they are or why they've taken you. Are they federal agents? Military? Far-right militia? Human traffickers? Ransomers? They don't explain what's going on. They don't charge you with a crime, because you haven't committed one. Once they've sufficiently terrorized you, they let you go. This is not the sort of thing that happens in a free society. This is what happens in authoritarian regimes. The governor of Oregon is outraged. The mayor of Portland is outraged. The state legislature is outraged. The Attorney General of Oregon has already filed a lawsuit to try and stop what are, quite literally, extrajudicial kidnappings. I realize that this sounds like an exaggeration, but it's not. Please stand up and speak out. Let the people of #Portland know that we have their backs. This is not normal. This is not okay.

Okay but like I feel like Diego is the kind of person to flirt with really bad pick-up lines and Klaus is just Not Having It
featuring: Diego being a flustered Mama's boy and Klaus being a disaster dumbass and the two of them being completely in love with each other anyway

#30: What A Tragedy
Diego: You must be a campfire. Because you’re super hot and I want s’more.
Klaus:
Klaus: Diego sweetheart, you’re allergic to marshmallows.
Diego: *tearing up* I know.
Klaus: You wanna hug, baby?
Diego: *crying* Yes please.
#31: That Can’t Be Allowed
Diego: Don’t tell me if you want me to take you out to dinner. Just smile for yes, or do a backflip/somersault/counter-spin gymnastics combination for no.
Klaus: *smirks*
Klaus: *does a triple flip and lands perfectly on the top of the bar counter*

#35: I Am Not Apologizing For This One

Klaus: I talk to the dead, Diego.
Diego: Okay…?
Klaus: *smirks*
Klaus: So wouldn’t I be medium rare?
Ben: Ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
#36: Leonardo Da Vinci Was Arrested Multiple Times For Homosexual Activity.

Love bites || (4)
pairing: jj maybank x reader [eventually] || rafe cameron x reader [currently]
warnings: cursing, typos.
summary: it was supposed to be a good summer for you, the last one in the obx before going to college, the last one with your friends and family. Unfortunately, a sudden and mysterious death is about to completely change your life, pushing you directly into a brand new world and into a very sexy vampire’s arms.
A/N: thank you so much guys, comments, likes, notes and dms means so much to me i’m glad you are enjoying my story! Love you all.
part three || masterlist || part five
“I can't see you right now, Rafe.” You said, holding the phone. “I— I need to help my mom with something at home.” You lied, glancing at the blond vampire next to you.
“Are you okay?” Rafe asked, concerned by how distant you've been recently. “Is it because of me? Shit, Y/N. I’m sorry if my—”
“Relax, it has nothing to do with you, Rafe.” You cut off, closing your eyes as you sat down on the ground with your guest, head falling back in a sigh. “It's just— It's just complicated for me to be around anyone right now. I need to be alone, but i’ll text you tomorrow, alright?”
He sighed. “Okay, i’ll see you later.”
You both hang up at the same time, guilt still occupying your mind as you threw the phone away. You looked at the horizon, the view from your backyard always calming you down when you need it. The last time you were there: Rafe and you were sharing your first kiss after a party: the heated memory making you smirk. But today you were sitting next to a vampire, discovering a brand new world.
“I don't like lying to people, especially my friends.” You said, breaking the silence, the nature’s noises accompanying your words. “They're also in danger—”
“Trust me, they know way more than you think.” JJ said, looking at the grass, his black-painted fingers wandering through it.
You ignored his sentence, too busy looking at him, examining his normal appearance: tanned skin, muscles, bright blue eyes, nothing seemed different. You weren't expecting vampires to look this good.
“What happened to you?” He briefly glanced at you. “You look so—” You paused shrugging your shoulders. “Human.”
He chuckled. “Remember my birthday party at John B’s, last year?” You hummed, he had invited you for some reason, but you couldn’t make it. “When everyone left, i decided to go home. I don’t know why, but i really wanted to see my dad on my eighteenth birthday.” He paused, a sad smile appearing on his face. “He was really high and drunk, we fought about it.” Your lips parted, guessing his next words. “My dad beat me to death.”
“JJ...” Your voice cracked, tears emerging once again. You couldn’t believe it. Everyone knew his father’s reputation and bad habits, but this was something else. “I— I don’t even know what to say. I’m sorry, you deserved so much better.” The blond boy looked at you, giving you a tiny smile. He wanted to wipe away the sad expression you were wearing. “But, how did you—”
“It happened outside, he left my body there.” He said, sniffing and looking at the rings on his fingers, nervously playing with them. “Marcus found me, he smelled my blood from miles away.” He smirked. “He felt extremely sorry as soon as he saw me, he knew my father and quickly understood. He thought i deserved a second chance. So, he saved me.”
“Who’s Marcus?” You asked. “Wait, are you talking about the old drug dealer?” JJ nodded. “He’s a vampire?” You raised your brows. “Wow... I always thought he was strange.”
“Yeah...” JJ continued. “He turned me, right in time.” Your eyes widened, imagining the scene. “It wasn’t easy, especially the first week. Marcus teached me how to survive, to control myself and everything i needed to know.”
“But...” He looked back at you, smirking at your confused face: you looked adorable. It was both surprising and comforting how easy you were to talk to. You were surprised too, feeling strangely good and safe with him. “What about, Luke? He killed himself, right?” You asked, remembering the event from last year. “Was it because of— Or did you?”
“I didn’t kill him.” He cut off, you nodded a bit reassured. “He killed himself a few hours after killing me. He really left the house, drove to Barry’s and shot himself. The cops didn’t even question it, since he had a poor reputation. They looked for me, obviously. I wasn’t in a good shape, dealing with the whole turning thing. Marcus lied to them, by saying that i was sick and they believed it. I think they just wanted to close the case. I’ve been living at John B’s since then.”
“Right.” You nodded, chin resting on your knees as you held your legs against your chest, trying to memorize everything. “Your friends know about you, don’t they?” He laughed. “Of course they do.” You added, feeling stupid for asking. “And, wasn’t it a bit awkward at first?”
“The hardest part was definitely accepting my death and what happened to me. I disappeared for a few days, ignored their calls and texts before telling them everything. I had to learn how to behave in public first, which wasn’t easy for me. I’m still struggling sometimes.” He explained, sighing. “But, since Kiara is a witch—” You chuckled at the irony, you ignored so much things. “They took it pretty well. Pope asked a lot of questions though, he was a bit nervous around me but mostly intrigued.”
You smirked. “I do have many questions as well!” You said with excitement, sitting down properly. “Like, why aren’t you burning right now?” He chuckled, enjoying your reaction to his condition. “We’ve been outside for hours. Also, how do you feed? Do you have powers?”
He sighed, smiling. “Okay, let’s start with this.” He pointed at the ring on his finger. “See this one? Well, Kie made it for me. It protects me from the sun.” You nodded, looking at it attentively. “I don’t feed on humans, but on animals and sometimes we steal blood-bags from the nearest hospital.” He looked at your neck, licking his lips just to tease you. “But, you look delicious.” You rolled your eyes, smiling. “Let me guess, type O?” He teased again, laughing as you smacked his arm. “My favorite...”
“Fuck off, JJ.” He laughed.
“And, we are not in Twilight. I’m far from Edward Cullen, even though we both share the same strength and speed.” You looked at the intriguing boy. “I won’t read your mind. Unfortunately, it’s not on the list.” You smirked, narrowing your eyes at him. “That’s too bad, i’m sure your thoughts are very interesting.”
“What about—” You sighed. “The other one, the vampire who killed my friend.” JJ hummed. “Do you know him?”
“No, that's the problem.” He replied. “And it seems like he's not alone. We think they are from another state, just passing by.” You looked around the garden, wondering if they were around here. “Don't worry, they won't bother anyone during the day. They're not coming out, which means they probably don't know any witches. They're either old school vampires or newborns, who don't care about consequences. They took so much risk by killing Kelce.”
“The police department knows about it, right? They know it's not an animal.” JJ nodded, chuckling. “I knew something was wrong the other day.”
“Vampires used to be a massive problem around here, in the past.” He explained. “That's when the slayers came around and eradicated them. It's a family thing, only touching the sons.” You frowned, rethinking about your conversation with Ward. “We were safe for a while. We are a small group, not messing around and respecting the rules. But, Kelce’s death changed the game.”
“They called the slayers back and now, they're all looking for vampires to kill.” He nodded. “That's not good…”
“Yeah…” He laughed. “Especially since you're dating one of them.” You frowned, jaw dropping. “Ward Cameron comes from one of the most famous families of slayers of all time. Which means that his wonderful son is going to join them anytime soon.”
“Holy shit.” You said, laughing nervously and running a hand through your hair. “The other day, while we were throwing a party for Kelce at their place, i heard a weird conversation he was having on the phone with someone. He was saying a lot of things, but nothing really made sense to me, until now. He seemed really nervous.” JJ wasn't surprised. “Peterkin was also there, she was supposed to meet him.”
“They're obviously preparing something.”
“I’m not dating him, JJ.” You added, annoyed by his comment. “I don't know why you keep—” He chuckled, interrupting you.
“Alright, Y/N.” He said. “You might not be dating him, officially. However, you were still having sex with him that night.” He smirked at the sight of your heated cheeks. “I saw it, while searching for the other vampire. Unfortunately, it was already too late for Kelce. I still managed to save you though when you walked back to the—”
“Wait!” You snapped. “It was you, behind me?”
“Technically, we were both behind you. He was looking at you and clearly enjoying your fear, he wanted to mess with your head. I chased him away while you were calling 911. He wanted to kill you too.” You remained silent, in shock. “I saved your pretty ass two times already, Y/N.” He joked, the hidden compliment making you blush once again.
“So, you can’t read minds?” You asked, wanting to switch subjects. “Or see the future? I thought vampires had more powers.” JJ smiled, standing up and offering you a hand. “What are you doing?” You asked, accepting it and standing up in front of the blond boy.
“I can't read minds or see the future, but—” You looked at him in the eyes and pouted, his heart melting at the sight. “I can do some other things though...” You raised a brow, curious.
In one second: the blond boy disappeared. You turned around, searching for him everywhere. “JJ?” He screamed your name and you looked up, noticing him sitting down on the roof with a playful smirk on his face. “How did you—” He moved again, making you laugh.
You tried to turn around, feeling his presence behind you. “Don't move.” He murmured close to your ear, both hands resting on your hips. “We can sense your blood from miles away.” He murmured, caressing your forearm: making you shiver against his body. “We can also hear your heartbeat from miles away.” His hand slowly moved up to your shoulder. “Even your moans…” He smirked against your ear: a silent moan escaping your lips.
“Stop it!” You whined, turning around to face him and smack his chest while he laughed at you. “Idiot.” He stopped, calming down. “I’m sorry, for calling you crazy earlier.”
He scoffed. “You’re adorable, but you don’t need to apologize. It was a normal reaction.” You nodded, smirking. “Anyway.” He continued. “I need your help. I'm pretty sure Ward is preparing something.” You crossed your arms. “I need to get access to his office, where he’s hiding shit.”
You frowned. “Wait, what?” You both started walking back to the front porch. “But, you're a vampire, you're way more discreet than me.”
“Probably, it seems like you have clumsy tendencies.” You stopped walking, rolling your eyes. “But it's impossible for me to get access to his office, since i'm not allowed to enter their mansion.”
“What do you mean?” You asked, following him. “Are they putting way too much Holy Water on the door handles or something?”
He laughed, gently pushing you. “That's very funny.” You smiled, taking the few stairs leaning to the porch before sitting down on the bench. “Vampires can't enter houses without getting invited in first.”
“Oh.” You said. “What about Sarah Cameron? Aren't you guys friends? And i’m pretty sure you came to a party at their house last year.”
“Kiara doesn’t want her girlfriend to be involved in this for now. And, this was before my death. I don’t think Ward Cameron the slayer wants me on his property anymore.” He said, sitting down next to you. “But, since you’re close to Rafe—”
“Shut up...” You whined, rubbing your face, your reaction making him laugh. “Wait, is this why you don’t want me to invite you inside my house? So, you can’t get any access?” He nodded, looking at his black combat boots. “Why not? I don’t understand.”
“It’s for your own safety.” You sighed. “I’m not gonna hurt you, it’s not in my intentions but—” He paused, clearing his throat. “Anyway, Ward and Rafe can’t know about this, obviously.”
“I won’t say anything to anyone.” You promised. “But i don’t think Rafe knows about any of this, JJ.” You said, trying to rassure him. “Don’t worry.”
“Not yet.” He sighed. “Ward is gonna have to inform him, at some point. Rafe won’t become an actual slayer until he kills a vampire by himself, that’s a part of their ritual.” He explained, visibly worried. “I don’t want my new family and friends to die. We— We need to take care of those vampires before anyone else dies.”
Shit, you thought. You didn’t want to lie to anyone, especially your family and friends but you had to. You also didn’t want to use Rafe but you couldn’t help feeling bad for JJ, who didn’t deserved to suffer either. He already went through enough shit.
JJ didn’t want to force you, he wouldn’t. But there was something about you, something telling him that he could trust you. You both remained silent for a moment, until you had made up your mind.
“Okay, fine.” You said, making him look back at you with a smirk. “I’ll help you, if you promise to not hurt anyone, especially Rafe.” He opened his mouth, ready to object. “He’s still innocent, we might not need to fight. We could do this before he turns into a slayer, okay? He’s still my friend and—”
“Okay, we won’t do anything to your boyfriend.” He cut off, the nickname making you growl. “Unless he starts attacking us first.”
“Don’t call him my boyfriend, or you’ll have to find someone else.” He rolled his eyes playfully. “Alright, what do you need, JJ?” He smirked, knowing you were both about to jump in a risky and exciting adventure together.

Oooh yeah the first time I was playing as a female mc because I wanted to romance ava and I usually go male mc if I want to romance a man and female mc if I want to romance a woman (and I think there was one book with where mc could be non-binary so I picked that one but I didn't finished the book), and Stacy's brother felt Hetero™ in a way, like Hollywood ish (? Honestly like cinematographicly bad hetero) but I ended up really loving Andy too, and Stacy felt a little flat but also I really liked her potential, like go crazy girl, and the mom issues.
Apart but holy shit you're 10000% right about that teacher like who inmediately threatens expulsion just like that for something not violent ??? And to an honor student with way too much on his plate ??? Obviously it would have been bad with any student, but you have literally the reason of why he's doing it and as a teacher HE LITERALLY COULD HAVE HELPED WITH IT ??????? Like something teachers can't really help students because it's a family thing only or is a financial struggle or etc but it was literally because of school (and his family, but the teacher could have heloed him with the school part)
(Identity thief anon (also I go by any pronouns ahhshs))
ur valid! that's lowkey what i wish i'd do (picking female MC if my fave LI is female and the other way around, i mean) but unfortunately i always go into the stories blindly having no idea what i'll find </3 so i cant really do that doiajdiosa and then i get attached for the MC i picked so i feel bad about changing their gender/name/appearance when i replay. so what i usually do is that i pick a male MC when i get the option because A- u don't always get the option, so i end up being male half the time and female half the time either way; and B- i feel slightly more comfortable with a male identity than a female one. like i'm still nonbinary and i wouldn't consider myself male aligned or within the gender of Man, but like... when i first came out i went by any pronouns but then because im afab everyone was like "cool, she/her only it is" so i was like fuck that and stopped using she/her. so i feel slightly more comfortable with a masc MC and end up going with that
there's also the fact that it always feels slightly genderfucky to have a male MC because choices is so sexist and also always writes the stories assuming ull pick a female MC, even when they give u the option not to. so when u pick a male MC he's very like not toxically masc and some things they add to make a QuiRkY MC that are very white woman and would feel annoying are actually kind of subversive for my black and brown male MCs. so like another win for queerness /j
ILITW MC in particular i feel has HUGE nonbinary vibes like no reason at all he just does <3 maybe it's just that for once the male clothes for ILITW actually fUCK. i wanna dress in that goth outfit <3 so gorgeous ugh. i love him even tho he's a fucking dumbass
also there's a book where an MC can be enby? worm? ive only ever read one book in choices with any enby characters at all (america's most elligible, books 2-3) but they weren't even a LI which is disappointing cuz they were a billion times superior to any of the LIs. sorry america's most elligible LIs fans
also oh connor IS the epitome of white cistraight man even when u play as a man tbh, like he was just so cistraight to me daouhdsaojdasij he kind of annoys me but also i forget that he even exists until he shows up onscreen and choices starts trying to push me into his lap and i'm just like, ugh, not again
and yeah i think i feel a similar way about stacy. i don't dislike her as a character and i don't feel like she as a character felt flat, her growth was very interesting and i loved seeing her start to challenge her mom like YESSS GO GIRL GIVE US EVERYTHING, she just felt flat as a LI to me ig? like idk i didn't feel chemistry between her and my MC personally, but also like, stacy girls are valid u know
right exactly. like i don't think ppl really understand that a school that doesn't drive people to cry during finals week and feel absolutely crushed by having to be there and that makes ppl feel like they're stupid, not enough, and overwhelmed IS IN FACT POSSIBLE and actually pretty easy to make when we stop treating students like statistics that will get the school more clients/funding (depending on whether it's a private or public school). and like as a teacher getting my degree in brasil it just feels completely surreal to me that anyone would see a student who's so overwhelmed by the amount of extracurriculars and responsibilities he feels like he has to take that he starts taking drugs to help his performance despite it affecting his health, and see that as like... something morally reprehensible? like it is bad that it happened but it's not the student's fault, what's morally reprehensible are the circumstances that led to his decision, not his decision
and like it is very much a systemic problem, more and more kids are taking focus pills to be able to survive the pressure of school and have a shot at a future, either on their own or because we are actually medicalizing not existing to be productive. and if it's a systemic problem then the fault is at the system?? and like holy shit i legit don't understand why choices gave us options like being like "it still isn't enough" when lucas gets rid of his pills, what do you mean it isn't enough??? enough for what??? to FORGIVE him???? for something that only hurt himself??? for something that is very much a systemic problem and therefore NOT HIS FAULT????? literally what the fuck even is this, lucas doesn't have to "make up" for a single thing, he needs to be HELPED is what he needs
like idk i know that the school system in the US is...... extremely backwards lmao which is not a term i like to use because it usually implies imperialistic views but the US is the height of world imperialism so like actually idc. brasil has a pretty progressive constitution and as a teacher my whole education was focused on being critical of the school system, particularly the productivity obsession, and drilling into us again and again that we aren't supposed to just be teaching subjects, we are also supposed to be teaching how to be a citizen, be a critical human being, work towards building a better future, and learning and growing AS A PERSON to be healthy and happy are values of the school system
like that's easier said than done when schools are under insane amounts of pressure by companies in practice to be productivity-driven, and most teachers who actually want to do a good job end up having to live at the edge of the knife and constantly fighting back outside pressure, but at least it is very much a mandatory part of our education to become teachers and also like literally part of the constitution. so i just... i can't fathom reacting the way mr cooper did? like as a teacher i felt BETRAYED, i felt like he shat all over my profession because that is the opposite of what we should be doing, this is a kid who needs help
and just like hOLY SHIT HE DID NOTHING WRONG, what are you punishing him for??? it's not even a like, stealing bread to feed your family situation, because what he did HAS NO VICTIM OTHER THAN HIMSELF, and therefore HE IS THE VICTIM NOT THE CULPRIT. he doesn't have to repent or atone or answer for a single fucking thing, he didn't victimize others, he doesn't have to apologize, there's nothing to punish him fOR??? like i don't believe in punishment anyway cuz im a prison abolitionist but doDAUSDJADASIJDAS???????????? HE DIDN'T. HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG. WHY IS THIS WHOLE GAME ACTING AS IF HE WAS IN THE WRONG. OH MY GOD
it's like saying that someone needs to be forgiven for self harming????? like how is it that someone has been hurt continuously until it led them to hurt themselves and then they have to? make up for it to a bunch of other ppl? my god it makes me so mad and i genuinely don't understand the logic, like usually when i see someone doing fucked up shit i can see the logic but i don't agree with it, but this time i genuinely DON'T SEE THE LOGIC. my USan friends said it was because he was technically doing drugs but like i legit still don't understand
anyway any school that drives a student to do something like that needs to rethink their entire curriculum and the psychological effect it's having on kids, because lucas is 1- not even the first one according to mr cooper; 2- even if he was, that'd be the only one who got CAUGHT; and 3- even if there was really only one singular student who went tHIS far, i doubt the others weren't feeling that same pressure and dealing with it in other similarly unhealthy ways
i know that's probably easier in brasil than in the US even if it's by no means easy here because here at least in public schools the curriculum and political-pedagogical plan has to be agreed on by the school community (teachers, parents, students, workers, and anyone who lives in the area of the school) and it's updated every year, so like, you have more means to do something to change the school in a deeper way, altho of course that still has to mean swinging the rest of the community, but still. but at the very least he could have looked for counseling for him? tried to find a way to take some of the workload off his shoulders? given him some more time on assignments? motioning for all the clubs he was the president of to have co-presidents so he was less overwhelmed?
like there was just daodsao he could have done so many things and he justs DIDN'T he chose to not only punish him instead but quite literally THREATEN HIM WITH DEATH because that's what calling the police on a latino student over a drug charge is. like he might've survived but the possibility that he would fucking DIE was very much there, and i know choices didn't think of that because they'd rather die than think about the racial implications of anything but holy fucking shit. and im not even getting into how mr cooper is BLACK because then ill just start biting people like thanks for putting that threat on a black character's mouth choices. if u need me ill be foaming at the mouth
anyway SORRY god why is it that i always get to the salty part within 2 seconds of joining a fandom i promise that i actually like it lives and the way they handled most of their plot, i genuinely think it's a very well written and actually worth ur time story but i just doadosaida like i said particularly as a teacher in the context where i'm being taught, plus with all my political beliefs, i just can't let it go aaaa
also ty for telling me ur pronouns! idk if i assumed them at any time, i don't think so but i might have done so without realizing and if i did im really sorry. also sorry for the gigantic salty reply daojdsaojdaisjsajdoadsaodasj rip me i never shut up

KILL ALL MEN
(And why it is foolish)
I’m speaking from a females point of view, (no I am not a pick me, lol) and will be making a blog on RAW (rape all women) next after this.
First off KAM has been picked up by the feminist group and is continuously being used day by day. I have stated my views on modern feminism on my other posts, I think modern feminism is Ridiculous. And the quote “Kill all Men” backs up my claim. Back then Women wanted to be equal to men. These days Women want to be superior, to the point it’s all about hate.
Moving Forward, as women you cannot generalize a group of people, no matter what experiences you have had with them. You don’t know every single man on earth, nor will you know. Therefore you generalizing is pointless when you, don’t know all men. If you have faced trauma... I understand where that hate may come from but nonetheless it is still not a good reason for you to hate, to be upset? Yes. Hate? No.
Women (not all of course) love to generalize men calling them pigs, sexist, rapists, walking wallets, paedophiles. Anything that comes to mind, they LOOOVE to point fingers to the opposite gender.
BUT (there is a but)
You know what men they love? Gay men. Men that became trans. They love them.
But apparently being straight is a crime to the feminist police. Run and hide boys, they wanna kill all men.
Seriously though, society loves to tell us Christians “we can’t help being born this way” ahah! They were born men, biological men. So if they can’t help it, why do you hate them so much? They can’t help being born male, they can’t help being born straight men. So then why do you care so much?
“But...but... men are rapists...men are paedophiles, men kidnap people...men bad”
Excuse me, people like this need to wake up. Are all men bad? No. (all humanity is bad obviously no one is technically good, I say this cuz I’m Christian) Are all women good? NO.
There are women out there that rape men, rape kids, sexualise everyone, kidnap, kill, etc. BUT NOT ALL WOMEN AND NOT ALL MEN DO THIS.
Let’s be Honest...
Women (not all) think the second a man looks at them wrong, that they are rapists.
Women are taught to marry men with a lot of money, because it makes them look good.
Most men have been taught to protect women from the beginning of time, they go to war for them, they die for them, funny how it is always women and kids that are first granted their safety and not men. (Things are changing but most is relatively the same)
Gender roles were made for a woman’s Safety and to live comfortably. (Y’all Wanna change this)
Women sexualise themselves. (This in itself is a sin, you tempt men to lust after you, they sin, you sin. You know what you are doing. Obviously it does not mean consent)
People are taught from a young age that kidnappers are male, and not women.
Women give out false rape accusations because society is more likely to believe them.
BEFORE YOU SAY..
“Not all men are bad but you should still be cautious of all men” that is understandable, caution is important, BUT what does this have to do with KAM? Nothing. If you want to be cautious, then be cautious. This would apply to generalizing when going out on the street alone at night or in a bar, etc. because there are bad men, not all obviously. I think that’s the only time it’s okay to generalize because it is safety based and even men are aware of this. BUT people do most of their generalizing on the internet. Completely changing the situation because when they do this, it’s not about safety it’s about hate and bringing others down
Not to mention, if you say “Kill all men. All men belong in Cages” and expect men to respect you...respect is earned and you need to rethink that.
PROOF
Here is proof that I am not making this whole Kill all Men thing up. Before you all tell me it’s a joke, there are people who are actually serious about this. Even if it’s a joke or not serious it’s honestly pointless, y’all don’t want equality.
I would post more pictures but I can’t go over 10.
CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE
First off, we are supposed to love our neighbors. Killing them or saying hateful things about them is not in any way love. Commuting crimes against them is not love. It is hate. Jesus taught us to love and respect one another and this goes to both men and women and for this reason we should not be trying to hurt one another. We should not be preaching hate . Especially in a generation that is corrupted with it.

non scarlet lady question, how would you had written kagami and luka entering the show? What would you have them interact with the plot or how would they affect stuff?
This is gonna be long because I have a lot to say on both sides of this, so strap in.
Kagami:
Kagami’s intro episode was perfect (for HER) - she came in quick, every bit of screen time was dedicated to establishing her character, relationship with her mother, values, and personality. With one episode we knew who Kagami was: competitive, confident (almost cocky), an extreme fear/rejection of failing, perceptive. And a softeness was established with the way she was still willing to listen to Adrien at the end of the episode, completing her mini-arc about dealing with losing in the episode.
On the romance side, while it was interesting (and I submit even necessary) to establish that Adrien is capable of looking at other girls through a romantic lens (or at least through a “Wow she’s pretty” lens), it ended up hurting the love square because while Kagami was able to capture Adrien’s attention immediately, nothing has made Adrien look at Marinette romantically no matter how subtle or not subtle she’s been. So for it’s intended purpose of bringing in a rival for the love square, Kagami’s episode failed. I mean, c’mon, does Marinette really need more opposition for Adrien?
My fix for this is that Adrien does react the same to Kagami - wow she’s pretty - but it makes him confront whether it’s okay to feel that way about other people when he loves Ladybug. He’d come to the conclusion that there’s no harm in looking at other people because he’s not in a relationship with Ladybug, so he looks at girls close to him differently. And I mean all of them, not just Marinette. He can still look at Kagami that way - she is on his fencing team and all - but it also makes him look at other girls like Chloe and Lila that are coming onto him strong and recognizing that fact (I mean tell me you didn’t groan in Onichan when Adrien insisted that none of these girls were into him) AND IT MAKES HIM LOOK AT MARINETTE. If we’re supposed to be invested in this couple, something has to give on all sides of the square.
Otherwise, the big fix for Kagami is just being consistent. She has 3 personalities and only one of them is any good. Obviously because Riposte was such a good episode for her character, that’s the personality I’d go with, especially because it’s the only one that at least justifies giving Marinette aNOTHER rival that’s interested in Adrien - because Riposte Kagami is NOT a bad person. So far the only real rivals Marinette has had are shrews that are only interested in Adrien as a trophy boyfriend. If Kagami is going to be into Adrien (and not say, Chat Noir) she needs to bring something new to the table by making Marinette confront a rival that she can’t convince herself that Adrien deserves better. They tried to do this, which is obvious because even when Marinette is “bad mouthing” Kagami she’s going on about how cool and amazing she is, but I know I wouldn’t be rooting for Adrien to end up with the Kagami in Animaestro that rubs being Adrien’s date in other people’s faces or the Kagami in Onichan who goes into a blind rage over a picture of a random girl kissing Adrien on the cheek. They need Kagami to be a good option and to be consistently a good option.
The alternative fix is to keep Kagami on her weird up and down hyperfixated/possessive personality but have her interested in Chat Noir. I’ve discussed before how this is the whole point of having rivals - to challenge the existing status quo and make a character rethink their feelings. By having someone interested in Chat - and potentially date Chat - Ladybug has to deal with whether she’s okay with that or not (and if the writers were worth their salary the answer would be “not”). However I’m not super into this fix because even without rivals, Ladybug has already had to rethink her feelings for Chat. It just seems…superfluous at this point. Maybe back when Kagami was being introduced, but now? Meh.
Luka:
Oh Luka, your episode was so low impact and all because you’re entirely entwined in Marinette and the writers just don’t give a fuck about her, and by extension, you. His intro episode was bogged down by Agreste Angst which he could never hope to compete with. It’s really telling that the introduction to Luka wasn’t his own akuma and wasn’t even devoted to him and his character like Kagami’s was. The writers are so married to the idea that nothing will ever shake Marinette’s love for Adrien that they approach people having crushes on her with absolutely zero ceremony. I guess it was too much to hope that because this one was going to stick around that they might care about him.
What did this episode do for setting up Luka’s character? A lot of things are vague or lack depth. Luka meditates. Why? Does he have sensory issues? Is it a warm up before performing? Does he have problems dealing with emotional outbursts? Does he just think it’s cool? Luka is into guitar and Jagged Stone. Does he want to pursue that professionally? Is it for fun? Why is his band made up of his sister’s friends and not his own? Does that make it Juleka’s pet project and not his? There’s just so many questions where there weren’t any with Kagami.
That’s not entirely bad - they could flesh out these things in later episodes. Except this is Marinette’s love interest so he doesn’t get other episodes. Aside from his akuma episode, he’s nearly background dressing when he’s granted the honor of showing up and he’s nearly always doing what he’s always doing - playing guitar and doling out advice. When Luka’s onscreen it’s almost always for someone else. And it was only until very recently that that someone else wasn’t Marinette.
So how to fix Luka’s intro episode. I’d like it to be focused on Luka, and even to an extent Juleka, and their relationship with their mom. To do this we need to establish in earlier episodes about the chaotic nature of Juleka’s homelife, some offhand remarks about their boat being so messy or Rose asking where Juleka’s house is parked this week. Start setting up that Juleka’s home is unconventional and a bit insane and also start setting up how Juleka feels about it (does she think it’s rad as hell or does she yearn for some normalcy). This helps us not have to devote time to setting up Juleka’s House AND Juleka’s Mom AND Juleka’s Brother in the same episode and instead we can focus on the dyamic between the three Couffaines.
This is where we have Juleka and Luka’s relationship established, and Juleka and Anarka’s relationship, and Luka and Anarka’s relationship. Maybe have a big three way fight - maybe Juleka’s trying to show off the cool side of her weird living situation but Anarka’s not putting on the best of impressions by being extra messy and arguing with police and maybe Luka pipes in that this is why he’s too embarrassed to bring his own friends over and Juleka is stuck between trying to defend her mom but she’s also pretty embarrassed by her mom in this moment at least and Anarka’s extreme personality can’t take insubordination so she goes off to sulk (and gets akumatized).
Then between the fight and everyone storming off, Marinette is the one trying to mediate and by virtue of being kind AND a third party is the only one the siblings are willing to be fully open with - Juleka admits that she does think her mom is super cool and her house is super cool but she sometimes can’t help but wish things were toned down so that she felt more secure (and that her mom might not go to jail at any minute). Luke admits his mom doesn’t really embarrass him but it’s tiring when people talk badly about his family and he wishes she could be more responsible to set a better example for Juleka.
And obviously save a little MORE time for Luka’s side of things since we haven’t had seasons worth of him dropping hints about his home life, and ALSO for the romance part. Marinette’s patience warms Luka up to him, because “if I had more friends willing to listen, like you, I don’t think I’d worry what people thought so much”. Or something. Luka being vulnerable with Marinette is what attracts her to him and her willingness to listen and not judge him is what attracts him to her.
The akuma can go pretty much the same, with Marinette impressing Luka with her Ladybug-ness peaking through. Just include some more concern between the siblings - even when they fight they still love each other. At the resolution, we have the Couffaines coming together, apologizing for letting their emotions cloud their real feelings and being honest with each other. “Mom, I love living on a boat and going where ever we want, but maybe when my friends are over could you try NOT getting arrested?” “Aye aye, I see yer point, I suppose it wouldn’t be a total breach of liberty to at least hear authority out.”
Good…start Anarka?
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY when Adrien does show up, Luka is being sweet on Marinette, to the point where she nearly doesn’t notice his arrival. Adrien takes note of the lack of attention from Marinette and is bothered by it, even though he doesn’t know why or automatically equate it to her talking to another guy.
THE WHOLE POINT of rivals is to change up the status quo. Adrien needs to be effected by Luka, he needs to feel like he’s losing out on something or needs to see Marinette as a romantic potential, if only by virtue of someone else taking notice in her and KEEPING notice in her I’m totally not bitter about how many guys who crush on Marinette just stop after one episode.
Thanks for reading my essay, those are my fixes. Kagami needs to narrow down on which personality she wants, Adrien needs to wake the fuck up and see Marinette as a potential date, Luka needs attention from the writers. And I need a strong drink because it’ll probably be the Series Finale before any one of these things come to pass.

I, Spy (Series, AU)
Chapter Two: The Interrogation
Pairing: CEO! Park Jimin x reader Word Count: 1.9k Genre: au, ceo!, action, heist Warnings: explicit, smut (eventually), language, violence, drugs
Jimin could feel the smooth, velvety feel of a blindfold tied around his head, blocking any light and sight. He tried to get a bearing of where he was but it was hard without his sight. There was no smell in the air other than metal. He tried to move his hands from his awkward position but found they were chained up and resting on a cool, metallic table. The chains were loud as the clanged against the table. He couldn’t hear anything else. There was no one in the room with him. He was alone.
There were a rush of memories from the night before, or perhaps it was still the same night. He had no idea how long he was unconscious for. He could remember the beautiful red dress he saw you wearing last night. He remembered how he followed you around, danced with you, drank with you and laughed with you. It was one of the best nights of his life. He felt as though he couldn’t get enough of you, but evidently, that was his biggest downfall, trusting a stranger. Moments before he became unconscious, he remembered the look of concern on your face, your hand in his. The alcohol was making him feel hot all over. He remembered looking up at you with a dizzy yet euphoric feeling, you were so beautiful to him and he knew everyone at the event agreed with him, he had watched how their eyes had followed you, just as he had. When you looked back at him, just before he fell, you had given him a smile. He didn’t recognise the type of smile at that moment, but looking back now…He knew you had given him a smile filled with guilt and pity.
You seemed so good, so why were you doing this to him? Why did you drug him? Lie to him? What did he do to deserve such cruelty?
Jimin’s thoughts were broken as he heard the creaking of a door open before a loud slam followed. He jumped, his senses heightened, he listened carefully as he heard the pair of feet tap against the floor, walking closer to him. The second pair of steps belonged to someone wearing heels. He tensed, he could smell a familiar smell, almost rose scented with a hint of ginger. It was you.
“Park Jimin, 23, CEO of Park Enterprises, successor to his father, Park Jaehyun. He has an older brother who works in the Armed Police Force as well,” said a male voice, if he wasn’t in this position then Jimin would suggest he sounds like a man who was earthly, with his deep, guttural tone that was oddly calming. He heard the heels walk around the back of him, two hands resting on the back of the metal chair he was sat on. “I think he is the perfect candidate to use, Y/N,” said the man and also confirming Jimin’s suspicions that it was you. At least you gave him your real name. “He has connections that could make this whole operation quick and easy. It’ll be a simple mission for our team.”
Jimin frowned as much as he could at the man’s words. He was part of a mission now? Were these people part of law enforcement? It couldn’t be the police or he wouldn’t have mentioned Haechan, his brother, the way he had. Jimin wanted to speak up, but the threat that you were giving off, even from silently standing behind him, was enough to keep him from talking.
“Thank you, Taehyung, I will take it from here,” you replied, your voice solemn. You waited until Taehyung exited the room before ripping the blindfold from Jimin’s head, the light immediately hurting his eyes. By the time he had blinked enough to adjust to the sudden lighting he found himself staring across from you, who was now sat down opposite him. His eyes scanned your face, from the minimal makeup, to the now tied up hair, to the black, formal dress you wearing. You cocked a perfectly arched eyebrow at his scrutiny before smirking, amused at the expressions on his face. “Hello Jimin,” you said.
Jimin clenched his jaw, leaning forwards in his seat. “Let me go, now, I am not getting caught up in any schemes you criminals are trying to force on to me,” he said with clear venom in his tone. He scowled as the smirk on your face turned into a full smile. “What is so amusing to you?” He snapped.
You let out a small chuckle and brought his attention to the files on the table. “Haechan knows you’re here, we have surveillance on you 24/7, he watched as you slept in that chair, with no one else in this room to cause any harm to you,” you said, pointing to the left of you and sure enough, in the left corner on the ceiling was camera with a flash red light, showing it was recording. “There were certain rules we had to abide by to make sure your kidnapping went smoothly. I am aware of your allergies, I am aware of any mental health disabilities you have. Your brother is surprisingly very helpful, considering back in the day when I went to high school with him, he was a huge jerk,” you said with another chuckle at the end. Your eyes were narrowed down at the papers in the manila file.
Jimin was stumped by this knowledge. He didn’t know whether to feel slightly safer that his brother was watching him or betrayed that his brother would put him in this position. There is obviously the other thought that this could all be an elaborate lie and his brother has no knowledge of his kidnapping.
“I’m not lying, Jimin, I would never betray your brother like that,” you said as though reading his mind. “Now, I am Y/N L/N, my official title is Recruitment Officer and I work for ARMY, Advanced Reconnaissance for Mistreated Youths. You are still in Seoul, and you were knocked unconscious with a normal sedative, there are no weird enhancements like I know are going through your head-.” Jimin was astounded at how well you knew him after those short hours. “-and you are completely free to go once this meeting is over with.”
Jimin scoffed and lifted his arms up. “I attend a lot of meetings, even at my young age and never once has anyone been chained to a damn table in a containment room,” he replied, his tone edged with plentiful sarcasm.
You smiled and took a key from the manila folder, reaching over to unlock his chains. You sat back and watched as he rubbed at his wrists. You sighed, hating how your firm thought things through. “Jimin, look, I am going to be very honest with you, there is a bad man you are connected to and we need an insider for us. All you have to do is wear a mic piece and a body camera, both well-hidden and continue being nice with this man until we can gather enough evidence on him,” you said, your joyful façade breaking into one of weariness.
Jimin frowned, still looking down at his wrists. “Who is this man?” He asked, his tone betraying his curiosity.
You pulled out a few papers from one of the other manila folders, unclipping two of the pages before turning it around so he could see the face of the man he had come to trust. “Rufus Conway, the American,” he muttered under his breath before looking back up at you. “Why do you want him?”
You pursed your lips, turning the page and pointed at three photos. Jimin gasped, they were photos of- “He is a Kingpin of sorts, he deals in drugs, ammunition, and to our disgust, slavery and prostitution,” you spat out. “That’s three girls that we have recovered from them, two of which are now working with us. They have allowed us to share their identity in order to capture and imprison Rufus Conway,” you explained. You turned the page again. “We have suspicion that he is about to use your company to smuggle more girls over, I would rethink your plans to go ahead with your project, Jimin,” you said.
Jimin gulped and nodded, his eyes still reading the words on the pages. He felt sick, that he was about to embrace a man like this into his company. He looked up at you and saw the sadness on your face as much as you tried to hide it; you weren’t fond of looking at this file. “If I were to help you, what would be in it for me? Safety? Anonymity? Because it sounds like you’re asking me to risk a lot of things for this operation, my money, my company, my legacy and my life.” The entire time Jimin spoke he watched how you took his words deeply, nodding where appropriate and not once arguing or cutting him off. He felt equal to you, almost comfortable with you, just like before.
You placed your hands flat on the table and leaned forwards. “I am prepared to make sure you come out of this unscathed and with a clear conscience Jimin. I don’t want to involve you but we need you, now more than ever. We just need that little push to finally prosecute him. We have the lawyers working on cases already. It’s all ready to be launched. We just need you to be there when he confesses,” you explained as gently as you could. “You won’t be alone either,” you added, smiling at him.
Jimin furrowed his eyebrows, taking your words into consideration. “I won’t be alone?” He parroted, with a tilt of his head. “Who else is going to be with me?” He found himself asking, as though he had already agreed.
“You’re going to hire a new assistant, and you’re going to need a bodyguard. You were just kidnapped, by a man named Al Bbeck, it’s all over the news,” you said, a smile now on your face but Jimin wasn’t laughing.
“You think kidnapping me is funny, uh uh, I am furious that I am even in this position. I want proof that my brother knows I am here, I want to see him,” Jimin demanded, slamming his palm on the table making you jump, he almost felt guilty but his anger was getting the best of him.
You sighed and shook your head, collecting the manila file up also picking up the handcuffs and key. “I hope you agree to do this,” you murmured, not quite looking him in the eye before banging on the door. You looked back just as the door opened, not acknowledging the man on the other side holding it open. “For what it’s worth Jimin, I really would have loved to go back home with you, to really get to know you,” you said with a sincere smile before bowing your head.
The man holding the door open narrowed his eyes at Jimin before slamming the door shut, leaving Jimin to stand in the cold room alone. He eyed the room and saw a bed with a blanket and small pillow on it and huffed. “This is just great, who the hell is Al B Beck as well?” He questioned out loud before snorting at the famous Terminator quote. “Definitely youthful,” he grumbled before sitting on the edge of the bed, his head hitting the wall as he slumped back.

Election 202 Presidential Candidates Assessment
Green Party (Howie Hawkins / Angela Nicole Walker)
Monitor and Prosecute White Racist Terrorists
Federal Investigations of Local Police Misconduct
Community Control of the Police
End Mass Incarceration—Treat Drug Abuse as a Health Problem, Not a Criminal Problem
Legalize Marijuana
Decriminalize Personal Possession of Hard Drugs
Drug Treatment on Demand
Decriminalize Sex Work
Fight Corporate Crime
End Warrantless Mass Surveillance
Pardon Whistle Blowers and Political Prisoners
I agree strongly with pretty much everything on this list but there are a couple that I think could be worded a little bit better or I am just misinterpreting what it says. The one that bugs me the most is, “End Warrantless Mass Surveillance” because I can’t tell if it is saying there should be camera like in the streets because people don’t consent to them? If that is the case, then I do not agree with that at all because I think cameras are necessary to catching crime and maybe even preventing crime because they know they will be on camera. I really like the what they are saying about the policemen and how they have to be held accountable for their actions and just because they are are policemen, it doesn’t mean they just have the right to do anything with no consequences. I think legalizing weed would be smart because it is proven to be not as bad for you as alcohol and people don’t become aggressive so maybe people will make the switch to weed as they already are.
The beliefs of these candidates to coincide with the beliefs of the rest of the political platform which would be expected in my opinion because if they didn’t then why wouldn’t the candidates just run under a different party unless they knew they couldn’t compete with Biden and Trump.
Republican Party (Donald Trump / Mike Pence)
-As we all know by now, Donald Trump loves his “Men in Blue”, which I respect, but there is one problem. Donald Trump will rarely admit something they have done is wrong when in reality, they do a lot of things wrong and they need a quick reform and that would just be a start to getting this country to come closer together but he is a very stubborn person and will likely never do that. Donald Trump has given money to cities to help them restore their equipment when in reality, what they need is longer, stricter, harder, and better training. Students should not be criminalized for what they believe in.
I agree with Donald Trump in the fact that policemen are very important. I personally do not think policemen are doing more harm than good on the individual basis, but the many people are perceiving this whole situation is that all policemen are bad because a few cops are and with social media, the bad videos are obviously going to go viral much quicker than the good videos. With this being said, the few bad cops are making all the good cops look bad and so people could say that “policemen are doing more harm than good” but I think policemen get too bad of a reputation because of a few sick and cruel cops. I am not agreeing or disagreeing because didn’t put this on his website, but policemen definitely need more training and it needs to be harder to become a policeman. I do not understand why he can’t see that even with the few bad cops, people are just asking for a change and they aren’t getting it so they will continue to be angry.
This website agrees with the republican website and I wouldn’t even be surprised if the people who made the Republican Party website helped out with the Donald Trump Website and vice versa.
Peace and Freedom (Gloria la Riva / Sunil Freeman)
End mass incarceration and police brutally and end racism.End mass incarceration of oppressed and all working class people. Fully prosecute all acts of police brutality and violence. Free Leonard Peltier, Mumia Abu-Jamal and all political prisoners!
After reading through the rest of their ideals, it is really difficult for me to say that I would identify with this group or agree with them. I don’t think very much time was put into this website because one of their points was just, “end racism.” Ok... and how are you going to do that? That is what I want to know. I can’t say everyone, because there are always exceptions, but 99.9% of the United States wants to end racism. Saying that doesn’t help whatsoever. They gave no suggestion on how to end racism but if for some reason they were elected all of the sudden racism would just end? This website sort of gets on my nerves the more I read about it. This is sort of off topic, but one of the points made on this website is “Shut down all U.S. military bases around the world—bring all the troops, planes & ships home.” In my opinion, this is just super dumb. Yes, nobody likes war, but if you shut down all the military bases everywhere then all of the United States citizens will be at risk and people will come tot he United States to attack. It seems as if whoever wrote this website doesn’t think that there are still bad people in this world except for cops. I don’t see how a platform can have so much hate towards policemen but yet have faith in the rest of the world to not harm our citizens. I could have interpreted this whole thing wrong but it was really weird reading this and thinking that people actually believe in it. I do agree for the most part about the criminal justice though.
For the most part, this website agrees with the party platform but the party platform website was much broader than this website. This website went into like a few specific case scenarios but didn’t really cover the overarching theme.
American Independent (Rogue de la Fuente “Rocky” Guerra / Kanye Omari West)
-Dear Mr. Rocky de la Fuente, The issue I am concerned about isc riminal justice. I am concerned about this issue because because it is a very big issue in 2020 and different candidates want to handle it in different ways. I am currently a senior at Acalanes High School and I am researching this issue for my senior Government class. Please clarify your stance on this issue. Thank you so much for your time and good luck.
Sincerely, Mitchell Franklin
(Yes this was sent, I just put it here so I could fill the space with something. If he responds, then I will edit this blog post)
Libertarian (Jo Jorgensen / Jeremy “Spike” Cohen)
-We claim to be the “Land of the Free” but yet we lead the world in incarcerations. This is not to say that we should should just start letting people out of jail, but she thinks that if the crimes are not violent and if they are are drug related, then those people need help more than anything which I completely agree with. Putting them in prison will just make them even worse and maybe even turn violent. There should be no law that prohibits a person from owning an object. Whether that object is a gun, or if it is a drug. If there is no victim, there will be no crime which means she will decriminalize everyone who falls underneath that umbrella.
I agree with what Jo says because people are getting put in prison way too easily as if it is going to make them a better person. It is a known fact that putting people in prison will not make them a better person. In fact, more times than not, it makes them a worse person. What these people need is education. I disagree with the fact that all frugs should be legal. I think I interpreted that right from what she said because she said “owning an object should not criminalize anyone” but the fact of the matter is, with the worse drugs, people get addicted, then they resort to stealing which has a victim so why not just stop that from the beginning. I think they should but other than that, I really like her ideas of keeping the non violent people out of jail because it will only make them worse.
This is pretty much exactly what the party platform website said. Both this website, and the party platform liked to focus on having less people in prison and not convicting people of crimes that are not violent.
Democratic Party (Joe Biden / Kamala Harris)
-Today, too many people are incarcerated in the United States – and too many of them are black and brown. To build safe and healthy communities, we need to rethink who we’re sending to jail, how we treat those in jail, and how we help them get the health care, education, jobs, and housing they need to successfully rejoin society after they serve their time.
1. Our criminal justice system cannot be just unless we root out the racial, gender, and income-based disparities in the system.
2.Our criminal justice system must be focused on redemption and rehabilitation.
3. No one should be profiteering off of our criminal justice system.
I completely agree with all three of these main points. There was one more main point, but it was sort of summarized in the top section. The bottom one is really important. If people are making a profit off of incarcerating people (not the government because it is insanely expensive to house inmates) then they will want to keep having people incarcerated so that needs to stop, and if Biden is elected, his plan is to make sure that doesn’t happen. Another one is making sure the policemen are not being racist and if they are, they need to be punished because there is a very large number of black and brown people and part of that is because due to the people who arrest them in the first place.
This website is very similar to the Democratic website because these are the Democrats who are running for office. Both websites focused on focusing in on reforming the police foundation and incarcerating less people which is very important to a healthy community, state and nation

My Thoughts On The Vic Situation
I’m aware that I’m going to be called a “cunt”, “bitch” and other vile names for speaking my opinion but this is just my thoughts on the whole situation.
~*~*~*~*~*
Considering that I'm more caught up with Overwatch VA's these days, but I have sadly learned of a situation with a VA that I loved.
Read the journal for more information:
There are some journals about this.
I never thought that the #metoo movement was going to be a problem movement. It was originally combating against Sexual Harassment, but I guess there are people out there to twist it for their own agenda. Like Monica and Jamie did. They twisted it to fit their own agenda to take a person down, just like anyone that uses this movement to twist it for their own personal gain. These fucking idiots felt like using it as a weapon to ruin people's lives JUST for the hell of it. Susan B. Anthony must be rolling in her grave right about now, I can't blame her though. Since all of her female descendants are poisoning the feminist movement and forgetting about equality.
I also forgot that Vic was accused of sexually assaulting girls at cons, which there is no EVIDENCE of him doing that.
Both Monica and Jamie DON'T have evidence that Vic did this to them. Allegations like this require evidence and so far Monica & Jamie show none of it. It's all a hearsay.
These people basically don't know what sexual harassment is! They never met anyone or experienced what sexual harassment is like or how to feel. They decided to say; well I was sexually harassed by this person, but I don't know what it's like being sexually harassed anyways.
Was Vic being inappropriate? No. But yes, he is a bit of a touchy guy but he doesn't mean to be touchy it's just who he is. He always asked permission before giving hugs and kisses on cheeks, but there are at times where he does it without consent. The fans are ok with that. But what was his crime? Being Overly-friendly to people. Being too nice to people even his co-workers, now he's going to be afraid to hug his fans again after this situation, he's going to be afraid to give out his hugs and kiss on the cheeks to fans. Since he won't know if they will sue him or file harassment against him. Studying Vic's body language, tone, and speech during his apology he displays textbook remorse, sorrow, and self-awareness. From what I have seen he clearly got comfortable with treating everyone fairly, assuming everyone wanted to be hugged, kissed or fan serviced with a scene of one of his popular characters. The man has already apologized for becoming too lazy about hugs which display self-awareness and remorse.
They, Monica and Jaimie, think hugging and kissing on the cheek is sexual harassment. Which is not! Vic is very affectionate to his friends and fans, he's not afraid to hide that. Even they should go to some European countries that are big on giving hugs and kisses on the cheeks.
The fact that the voice actors of DBZ are throwing Vic under the bus to save face makes me sick to my stomach even their comments, don't get me started on the comments some made. Personally, they have a personal vendetta against him, which I'll explain at the end, they know Monica and just want to defend her of all this BS. Then again the majority of these voice actors at Funimation are narcissistic Leftists.
Funimation dropped Vic without hearing his side, cons banned him and now he's left with nothing. He's banned from Cons and fired for doing a job that he loves and a community that he adores.
It's funny that they dropped Vic without evidence, but remember the incident where another VA of FUNimation was accused of Child Pornography? FUNimation decided to wait until the evidence comes out. But with Vic? Nope, sorry bud you are cut from the scene.
The only voice actor that is on Vic's side is Todd. He is standing by Vic's side, which I praise him for.
I literally lost respect for Funimation, which I haven't watched them for years, they fired Vic without evidence shown. While Funimation said that they don't condone harassment, they still have Monica, Jaimie, and Sean who openly harass fans who question them over the lack of evidence.
Monica is basically acting like a bully who constantly says that they are going to tell on you but with her, it's like "I'm gonna screenshot this to show my lawyer!" She obviously now thinks she can sue people for disagreeing with her. Can I say that those who were sexually harassed sure as hell won't go online to tell the whole world what happened!
I’d say if you’re accusing someone of something serious you are OBLIGATED to provide evidence. Where has the mentality come from where you accuse someone of something horrible and serious and you expect people to go off nothing but word of mouth alone and treat the accused as 100% confirmed guilty? That’s a disgusting backward way of thinking.
Especially with screenshots being capped of people wanting to edit photos of Vic to make him look guilty because of their twisted sense of justice. The people who felt uncomfortable exist, but don’t you dare sweep under the rug the proven false allegations still circulating and people with malicious intent trying to lie to make things worse.
You can’t accuse people and when someone asks you to bring more info and proof to the table you essentially say “I don’t owe you proof, you’re supposed to just believe me completely.”
NO. That’s not how things should ever work in real life. It’s illogical and illogical to expect that of people.
Does she not realize serious allegations like this can lead Vic to depression and suicide? But then again she doesn't care nor does SJW's care about whose career was destroyed. Which I hope Vic doesn't consider even doing. No one wants that.
Monica Rial has officially gone on a complete meltdown on twitter. She's showing her true colors: she's a textbook narcissist with false victimization tendencies. She displays compulsory to lying, passive aggressiveness to hold herself accountable. She doesn't want to stop the harassment on Twitter, she's fueling it. She said that she had to be far from social network because of her lawyer's advice (which is the best solution honestly), and now she keeps threatening people like that. She threatens those that question her for evidence and to show proof. How can she still work at Funimation after this, this is unacceptable. She didn't give us any PROPER photo evidence, video or audio evidence to back it up these claims. Now if there was evidence I'll happily change my mind but this is all just a hearsay. When Monica threatened to sue anyone who simply makes a video that has a different opinion than her, it showed a guilty conscious. She bragged about getting his job after this, she claimed he didn't have the right of innocence before being guilty outside of court. Can I just say it's funny that I know two people that are treating Twitter like a courthouse? Monica Rial & Timethy Heller? Both are treating Twitter like it's their personal courthouse just to be sided with.
And FUNimation is basically defending her through this BS. Monica personally LIED to take Vic's job away from him.
Also, how can fans follow this VA that constantly harasses people that asks for evidence? Like, how can you still support her after what she's doing? She has no video evidence, no anything to prove her point that Vic did this to her, it's all a hearsay!
But now let's take a look at this at another angle, this is just a thought: If Monica Rial and other coworkers apparently knew that Vic Mignogna had been this “sexual predator” for years, why didn’t anybody do anything about it beforehand? Why didn't they report his behavior to HR(Human Resources) if he was sexually harassing them? Or even try to talk with him to curb his behavior.
How were they still working with him that whole time? No investigation, no police report, no credible evidence, nothing? And she’s saying she doesn’t owe any sort of explanation? Yes, she does! She OWES an explanation to fans about him. She and others put fans in danger because of him if he was a "Sexual predator".
Especially if she’s trying to make claims against someone regarding sexual assault or sexual harassment. Those are serious offenses that should be reported to law enforcement immediately, not some angry Tweet to vent to some fans and subscribers about on social media years after the supposed offense.
If Vic is proven guilty (which I doubt cause I've yet to see hard solid proof but there hasn't been any) then they should be held accountable as well cause they let a predator on the loose and turned a blind eye to his wrongdoings and all the people he "sexually harassed" after that are because of them cause they knew but didn't stop him.
Thanks to them they banned someone who's the most sweetest VA anyone has met, a lot of people had met Vic and they literally said he's the sweetest person. Vic also defended the LGBT+ community and told off a bunch of Christians in front of the building where the con was being held to leave so that those that were attending can enjoy.
To those who say he's "homophobic", he supports the LGBT. He might be Christian but he defends and supports the LGBT+ community.
Much to the saying says; Rethink your heroes and never met your heroes. Since you may not like who you meet. It's like a punch to the gut for fans to realize that these VA's of DBZ are shitty people. All respect that fans had for them, they lost their respect for them.
But I'm also saying that there are friendly VA's that you should meet and that you should have a great experience with. Just remember that VA's are humans too and they can have emotions just like us.
Continuing,
I need to add that Sean Schemmel, Goku's VA. Funny enough, I liked Sean since he seemed like a cool guy but after this situation (probably from the youtube videos that make him look like a cool guy). I stopped liking him as a person, I love him as a VA but not a person, he's also coming to Wisconsin Comic Convention so a lot of fans will give him shit about this situation. I bet that no fans would ever wanna meet him in person anymore and avoid him because he turns out to be such a rude, disrespectful douche. A fan talked about Sean that he's a mixed bag, he can be nice & Friendly but he stresses a lot, another said he has Bipolar Disorder.
He basically defended Monica and Jaimie after this situation, he absolutely has lost my respect by his behavior to some people. Some people like myself are trying to stay neutral and objective about this, but Sean is making it personal by tweeting this out.
Only, I think Sean jumped into the Vic situation because he doesn't like him. Maybe that he has a fear that he's not going to be FUNimations poster boy anymore since Vic is a very talented Voice Actor. People give Monica, Sean Schemmel, Chris Sabat and so on way too much credit. They've been planning to get rid of Vic for years, ever since Vic stepped into the studio. Now that the Super Broly movie has gotten so much praise, it was the perfect opportunity to get Vic in trouble with false accusations. Vic is a white European male who has strong Christian ties - it's exactly who the Leftists love to side against. This man is literally one of the nicest guys out there. And there's also proof that was leaked of people planning to stage evidence against Vic, such as photoshopped pictures to accuse him of something he didn't do.
Monica is one of many threats. There's also Chris Sabot, who stated only the so-called 'survivors' know the truth and that we should listen to them. Sonny Strait is also attempted to back up Monica's claims. And there's that Neil, who openly admits he's always hated, Vic. He posted a video of Vic riding on the guy's shoulders at convection. Almost like a damn parody, he tried using that video as evidence, claiming he felt assaulted. Which wasn't an assault, he got on his shoulders and was having himself a good time, Neil looked like he was having fun too.
Then there's Jamie, who stated she basically wants Vic dead. How psychotic do you have to be? Jamie is an absolute psycho, just like that Marzbitch(Who started the whole kickvic campaign). Even Jamie has a lot of nerve to tell Vic to apologize to her. What for, Jamie?! If you ask me, Jamie Marchi needs to apologize to him for the death threats, name-calling treating him like shit. She needs to apologize, but she won't because she'll refuse too. Every FUNimation VA's chose a side, some have remained silent on the matter, but some have decided to add fuel to the flames making it bigger.
Anyway back to Sean, he is dragging us through the mud throughout all of this bullshit. Fans want answers. Monica made this public on twitter. It is our business now. Which it shouldn't.
If they wanted to handle this professionally and privately, they would have done so. They did not do so. They are acting like children. Monica took to twitter, she made it public and now it's the fans business now. She's treating Twitter like a courthouse so that she can be believed and have fans turn against Vic, she's manipulating them into thinking that Vic is this monster, which he isn't. Those that want evidence, they know what's going on and they don't believe her. There is more proof coming out of the woodwork.
To everyone defending Monica, stop. You have fallen for her lies. This woman, instead of going to the authorities, staying neutral til proof was presented, choose to talk about something this serious on Twitter. She wants attention and she got it. Hell, her withholding information like this alone makes her a shitty person because of she alone, for those who believe that Vic is a monster, put more people in danger.
She knew that saying she was a victim would get everyone on her side because she voices Bulma, a very well-known and loved anime character. And you believed her. No questions asked just “Omg not you too!” “I’m so sorry you had to go through that!” “NoT mOnIcA!”
Doesn't take much to win y'all over huh? Anyone could say that Vic touched them inappropriately at this point and you’d immediately believe them without proof or a bit of an explanation on what happened, and no, saying “He was creepy” isn’t good enough. Not when it comes to accusations like this.
If they didn't want any of this to happen, they should not have gotten their fans involved. Now some people could be in serious danger because of these FUNimation VA's releasing private information. Do they think about their fans? No. This just shows their true colors, they don’t care about them. They don't care that they put their fans in a serious situation because they couldn't keep their mouth shut.
The swatting incident is absolutely awful and I hope whoever did it is found and charged with attempted murder. Sean talked about this in a tweet. This has already happened several times in the gaming community and has even lead to someone being killed. Swatting is a very serious matter and should not be done on any side. I know that a voice actor almost getting killed is terrible (it's a relief Reuben is alright and alive), but scapegoating the Vic supporters into this is just idiotic. We have nothing to do it with it and even if were someone who supports Vic, he's not doing a good job and we disassociate that person from us. If Vic is innocent, this is not how you prove it.
He's digging his grave ever deeper, just like Monica is. He's ruining his reputation more. He's showing more of how much of a douche he is. He's making more of his fans losing respect to him.
All of it is his fault, not the fans. He's dragging the fans down with him.
He said he was going to "stay off of twitter" but he decides not too. Why is it that hard for him to comprehend that?! If you want to "stay off of twitter" then do what you said before and not do a freakin' 180. All he had to do was say nothing. Stay out of this shit show, but no, he just had to take a side and add his fuel to the flames.
All of this SHOULN'T HAVE BEEN MADE PUBLIC. There are reasons why lawyers tell you to stay off the media to avoid letting people know about this. When this goes to court, these tweets can and will be used against them. Monica obviously should've listened to her lawyer's advice but nope, she refused to listen and threatened anyone who wants proof since "she has a lawyer". Obviously, Vic has a lawyer so he's doing a good job of laying low and not saying anything until they go to court.
Then what would Funimation do if these tweets are used against Monica? They would face an option on firing her, then try to find someone to voice Bulma or just keep defending Monica once everything was revealed.
In the end, if Vic is found innocent. Then we can all say karma played her sweet role in this. That still won't recover Vic's career sadly, since it's already been tarnished because of these allegations and it won't be the same. I even doubt he would even want to step foot in FUNimation ever again, due to all of them stabbed him in the back and ruined his career for good.

PLEASE gift me with the flogan smut. Flynn: Ok bud, let me tell you exactly how you screwed this whole thing up. Wyatt [not even kind of quietly]: Screw. You. Flynn: Not right now thanks but come by my room later [winks] Wyatt: [suddenly rethinking every decision he’s ever made because there’s no reason he should have found that wink so hot]
ahahhaha.
set post-2x07 after a presumable mission full of snark, wyatt getting served gallon jugs of tea by flynn and lucy, and general confusion and frustration and jealousy over their super totally not romantic night together. also tagging @extasiswings because obviously i am, and @sharkflip because imma ease them nice and slow straight into the trashcan.
Wyatt Logan has not had a good day.
In fact, it would be difficult to think when he’s had a worse one, all things considered. It started out with seeing Lucy leaving Flynn’s room this morning with the most satisfied of smiles, which Wyatt frankly did not know for sure meant satisfied or satisfied, but was jealous enough to order Flynn to stay the hell away from her. That was his first mistake, because Flynn has been doing the verbal equivalent of bitchslapping him with a dead fish all day long, and Wyatt (you know, he thinks bitterly, maybe this should not fucking surprise him) keeps walking right into them. Flynn has missed absolutely no opportunity to hit him between the eyes with pointed remarks about Jessica, about Lucy, about what Wyatt does and does not have any right to be jealous about, and to make things worse, Lucy’s been tagging in. You’d barely notice there was a trip to 1919, a police riot, a kidnapped suffragette, and everything else in there. Once they landed the Lifeboat back home, Rufus stalked off in one direction, Flynn and Lucy stalked off in another, and Wyatt, well, Wyatt…
(He’s fairly sure there might not be enough alcohol even in this bunker to make him feel better, but damn if he isn’t going to find out.)
He’s moody and snappish and doesn’t want to go bait at Jessica. He also doesn’t want to go anywhere he might have to see Flynn and Lucy playing footsie (or, you know, not playing footsie). Rufus is thoroughly sick of this avalanche of romantic nonsense from white people with communication problems, and has gone to commiserate with Jiya. That leaves Wyatt to find the most out-of-the-way corner of the bunker he can, the most readily available kind of alcohol, and a plan not to emerge unless to get more.
He’s sat there for a while, sipping steadily, when a shadow wavers on the floor, he hears footsteps, and someone comes around the corner. Of course, it is the person that, of everyone he is crammed into this sardine can with, Wyatt wants to see the absolutely goddamn least, and he gets to his feet fast enough to nearly knock over the beer. “What, think of a few more witty cracks you didn’t get off last time?”
Flynn looks surprised enough that it’s possible he didn’t realize Wyatt was there, and hasn’t in fact returned to play with his food, but of course, he recovers in an instant. “Witty? No, I don’t waste the witty ones on you, Logan.”
“Great.” Wyatt raises his eyes to the ceiling. “Look, just – just go off and – whatever. With Rufus and Lucy.” He can’t quite get – won’t get – his tongue around the fear that Flynn has replaced him, that now he’s bonding with Rufus and he’s whatever with Lucy, they don’t need Wyatt anymore. He’s just a man who loved his wife too much, who got a gift that no one in the history of the world ever does, and has managed to comprehensively make a mess of it. He’s angry and he’s hurt and he’s relieved and heartbroken and it’s all too much. If Flynn is here to jab at his sore spots some more, he’s half-afraid he’ll no longer have the strength to fight back, might just break, and that’s the worst of all.
Flynn raises an eyebrow. “Wasn’t I supposed to stay the hell away from them?”
“Shut up.” Wyatt turns on a heel, only to discover that drinking on an empty stomach has started to kick in, and he’s not completely steady on his feet. “Look, you’ve won, okay? And you’re right. About earlier. There, I said it. Now piss off and leave me alone.”
“I’m going to need you to repeat that, Wyatt.” Trust Garcia Fucking Flynn to be a) utterly relentless, and b) a totally graceless winner. “That you fucked it up and that I was right.”
“Screw you!” Wyatt bursts out savagely. “SCREW YOU! Why won’t you just – ”
Flynn stares him dead in the eye and does the tongue thing that, frankly, he should just not. “Oh? Well, I know you know where my room is, after you were lurking outside it earlier to ambush Lucy. You’re welcome to stop by too.”
That, to say the least, is not the response Wyatt was waiting for. He feels as if he’s run into a rope at neck level and been clotheslined to the ground (which is his usual state of being when dealing with this tall son of a bitch, unfortunately). He opens his mouth very wide. Nothing comes out except a faint sputtering noise. Finally he manages, “That’s not what I meant.”
“Isn’t it?” Flynn takes a step. “You’ve been very concerned about what’s going on inside it. You’re welcome to make a more personal inspection.”
“I – “ Wyatt raises a hand to push Flynn away, which misses his arm by a solid six inches. God, he feels like that fifteen-year-old kid who weighed a hundred and thirty soaking wet, before he filled out in the latter two years of high school. Sees Michael Young’s eyes gleaming at him under the bleachers, tastes the cheap beer on his tongue, I’m dead if Dad finds out, wondering if his father could see it on his face, Wayne Logan don’t raise no queers. His heart is hammering. He wants to hit Flynn, that’s what he wants. His fist clenches in anticipation.
Flynn looks down at him slowly and thoroughly, taking note of his (to say the least) frazzled state. A smirk curls up the edges of his mouth. “This,” he remarks. “This is just a tragedy.”
“Shut. Up.” Wyatt makes a good fist this time, makes both, and pushes Flynn hard in the shoulders. He doesn’t even budge. “Get away from me, you dick. Go away and torment someone else.”
Flynn does the tongue thing again, far more deliberately. Their faces are not that far apart in the dimness, and Wyatt’s pulse sounds like a jackhammer in his ears. “It’s more fun tormenting you.”
“I hate you.” Wyatt shoves him again (it’s definitely a shove, he doesn’t half-grab Flynn’s shirt or anything stupid like that, so he’s not sure how he ends up holding onto it). This time, he actually makes Flynn move, knocks him off balance a little, feels a searing thrill of entirely undeserved victory. They shift, grapple around on each other, and Wyatt loses his balance. Falls back heavily into the wall, pulling Flynn with him, and –
The next instant, Flynn’s hands come up to catch behind Wyatt’s head, Wyatt is jerking him down with both of his own, and they almost break each other’s noses. It’s not a kiss so much as a shared open-mouthed snarl, teeth scraping and tongues jabbing and warfare waged between their lips, as Flynn hoists Wyatt up further against the wall and pins him there as if in the prelude to slamming him (in one way or another). Wyatt is absolutely sure he does not want to be doing this, should never have done this, will regret ever having done it, and yet he is completely unable to stop. Flynn’s mouth is hot and strong and totally relentless, and at least while Wyatt is occupying it, it cannot be used for more annoying remarks, which is some sort of a win. It burns like fire and it’s a good way to be angry at him and god. God.
(Does Flynn kiss Lucy like this, Wyatt wonders? Domineering and brutal and devouring? Or does he kiss her as gently as spring rain, and melt like a snowflake under her touch?)
(Wyatt doesn’t care. Either way, he hates it. And definitely not because he’s half-imagining what it might be like to be in the middle of that.)
There’s nothing but hisses and grunts and gasps for another several moments, neither of them seemingly willing or able to pull away (because, you know, that might mean the other won, and they can’t have that). Then there’s another noise from the head of the hallway, this one totally exasperated in nature, and they drag their faces away to see Denise Christopher standing there with a look on her own that really, she deserves to have. After all this drama about who is kissing and/or sleeping with who, after the Time Team have been a bunch of horny teenagers in every apparent combination, after she is the only one abiding by the no-getting-laid, we-gotta-save-the-world stuff, after Wyatt and Flynn have been two of the biggest offenders in this department –
Denise stares at them with an I don’t know what I expected sort of look, and shakes her head. Then she very deliberately turns away, clearly doing her best to scrub that image from her brain, and vanishes around the corner. A distinct whiff of judgment lingers behind her.
Slowly, Flynn puts Wyatt down, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, breath knocked out but arrogance undimmed. “Well,” he says, low and rasping. “I’ll leave you to get on with your evening, then.”
With that, he saunters away around the corner (in the opposite direction from Denise), leaving Wyatt sagged against the wall, sweating profusely, and trying desperately to will away the most inconvenient and unwanted boner since the one he had in ninth grade for Ms. Taylor the hot math teacher. He wipes his mouth once and then again. It still feels burned and bruised and seared. It’s hard to imagine it fading soon. Or, in fact, at all.
God, he hates that guy.

Our Fingerprints - Soulmate! Michael Clifford
Prompt
A/N - This is originally a 7 part series. It is now combined into one 3,766 word fic. I hope y’all enjoy
Masterlist
+++
You stood at the threshold of the place. You hold your hands out to inspect them one more time before you go in. They seem normal to me, they are your hands after all. You squint to look at your fingerprints once more. You have been told from a young age that your finger prints are almost unique, that only one other person in this world will have the same fingerprints as you. That person being your soulmate.
So, here you are standing in the threshold of Finger Print Mania, the only and the largest fingerprint matchmaking service. On your eighteenth birthday you can go to one of their locations and get your fingerprint put into their database. Then if your soulmate’s print is in the database, or added, you and your soulmate would both be notified. In the notification is their name and anything else, like a special message, a location, or job.
The problem is that you didn't know if you wanted to put your fingerprint into the database. The whole experience is completely voluntary. You had never felt so vulnerable as you felt right now in this place. What happened if he never put his fingerprint in? (At least you thought it was a he). Could you go about your years looking at everybody’s fingerprints without going insane?
It’s better to not know, you decide, turning around and walking away.
It’s better to know, Michael decides, walking inside of the building.
Some people stop to stare at the super star, phones where whipped out. It is Michael’s twentieth birthday, and only now was he putting his finger print into the database. When he was younger he was convinced that he would meet her naturally. Now, touring around the world and never being home caused him to rethink his plan.
It took a total of thirty minutes before he could leave. He waited in line for the first ten. You would think that not many people would be there, but people of every age was waiting in line. Then he got his fingerprints scanned. Lastly they gave him a sheet and told him to write his name and whatever else on it. Michael had been tasked with writing whole songs, but his first words to his soulmate stumped him. He was sure she was pretty, but how can you write that on paper, never seeing her before?
Michael ended up writing something lame. He said his name, age, the band that he was in, and then something about wanting to meet her. When he passes the paper over to the lady behind the desk. She smiles at him, obviously knowing who he was, and looks down at what he wrote. He could tell by how the smile slightly dropped that she thought that he would be more romantic or something. But no. All the fans always romanticized them.
+++
Micheal is prepared. He is ready to get the text. The text that will begin the rest of his life. Sure, it’s only day one of having his fingerprint in the system, but he’s prepared. He’s prepared to meet her, the person he will spend the rest of his life with. Sure, he’s had girlfriends before. But he knew that none of them would compare to her. It’s in their genes.
Micheal always kept his phone on him, these days. He had a feeling that it could be any minute, any second now, when he gets the notification that his soulmate had been found. He was…excited? The only time he has ever felt this way was seconds before he is about to go on stage, the crowed roaring for him and his bandmates.
The boys were all in LA writing their next album, which is to-be-named. Today is an Ashton-Luke written session, meaning Calum, his soulmate Brynn, and Micheal were at the house. Calum is the only one in the group with a found soulmate. The other two boys refused to put their fingerprint in the system, wanting to be bachelors for a little longer. Calum went on his own eighteenth birthday to put his fingerprints in, as did Brynn.
Micheal spots the lovely couple on the couch cuddling and decided to flop down between them.
You spot the lovely couple on the couch cuddling and decide to flop down between them.
“Y/N!” They both yell. They are your best friends, Brian and Mia. The three of you had always gotten along, but last summer, when they found out that they were soulmates, there was a shift in your relationship. One that you did not like. It was no longer Brian, Mia, and Y/N. It was more like Brian and Mia, and Y/N. They acted more like your parents than anything else, getting annoyed when you disturb their alone time, and kicking you out of group discussions.
You laugh at their annoyance and wiggle your way between the two of them. “What are we watching?” You ask, turning your attention to the TV. It was some dumb soulmate movie. There was a nobody girl ending up being soulmates with some famous pop star or something. Like that would ever happen in real life.
Instead you decide to go on your fan account for Five Seconds Of Summer, and Australian band that you stan. You firstly check to see if any of the boys had found their soulmates, besides Calum. It was no secret on the 5sos universe that Calum had found a gorgeous soulmate of the name of Brynn. Everybody loves her. She always leaks out cute pictures of the boys and once and a while a lyric or two. Nothing comes up except for pictures of Micheal going to a Fingerprint Matching Service, Finger Print Mania. Michael is trying to find his soulmate. This excites you to no end. It’s always exciting for everyone when celebrities find their Soulmates. Although it saddens you also, Micheal is you favorite in the band, and soon he will officially be “off the market”
+++
No sign of her. They both think, scrolling through pages of twitter. No sign of Michaels soulmate. About two blocks away from each other, scrolling on social media, in hopes of finding the same girl. The only difference is is that one of them is the girl, she just doesn't know it yet. The only difference is one is too scared to put her fingerprint into the data base. The only difference is, is that its a year later since Michael submitted his own fingerprint. The only difference is that one gave up checking his phone for the notification.
It is Michaels twenty-first birthday, but today has been Declared Luke’s. He claims that today is the day, that today is the day that he will put his fingerprint into the database. Michael is secretly annoyed. Its supposed to he his day. Not Luke’s. Sure there was plenty of “Happy Birthday You can legally drink now” messages, but there was also messages about Luke going to be at Finger Print Mania in L.A.
Luke proceeded to get all the boys to come with him. Luke claims its because of nerves, but Michael suspects that Luke is secretly a girl and can’t do anything alone. Michael couldn't tell you the amount of times that Luke would beg one of them to go to the bathroom with him. The other theory that Michael has is that Luke is scared to go out alone because of the fans. It’s much easier to deal with them when there if four of them. But if Luke is worried about the fans then why did he Tweet about where he is going today?
They arrive at the place Michael was last year. Fans are crowded outside the doors, waiting for a glimpse of one of the boys. They quickly take a few pictures and go inside the building. Inside the building was eerily calm compared to the outside. They all watched from afar as Luke quickly goes up to the free receptionist. Michael takes a calm look around the place, when his eyes meet her’s.
Y/N takes a calm look around the place, when her eyes meet his.
Today is Y/N’s day. Well its also Michaels, being his birthday and all, but today was your’s also. It’s been a year since the last time you went to Finger Print Mania, and now you felt ready. It’s also your nineteenth birthday to boot. You started college last year, and it seemed like all your wishes were coming true, except for two. Meeting 5sos and Meeting your soulmate. So you decided that today is the day. You were going to go and put your fingerprint into the database.
You didn't check your phone before you went, but when you got there, there is a huge crowed inside. Police officers were on the scene, shooing the mass of girls outside of the building. You wonder what’s going on, but then you hear someone shout for “five second of summer” and you understand. Probably Luke or Ashton tweeted about coming today. You are unworried though, because once they see this mess, they’ll probably keep driving.
You enter the building to find that everyone was ushered out, so only a few people were inside, all filling out forms. You walk up and they quickly take you. You first put down your prints into a scanner, then they give you a form and tell you to write something to your soulmate on it. You stick to a classic, “heres my name and where I live” kind of a thing. They will have your number automatically so you weren't too worried about that.
Thats when they come in, right when you were looking around for inspiration to write anything else. You study the group. There is Luke, who looks nervous as ever. Ashton, who just looks bored but a little excited. Calum who is looking around, nodding to the familiarity of the place. And then there is Michael. He looks like he'd rather be anywhere but here. You watch him turn. and then your eyes meet.
+++
Michael knew it was her, just by looking at her. It felt unnatural how his chest expanded, and how his heart raced. So yes, he knew it was her. He watches her, never leaving eye contact. Even when Luke comes back with the papers, saying how he needs help with what to write, Michael doesn’t take his eyes off of her’s.
You know it is him, just by looking at him. It feels unnatural how your palms begin to sweat and how your whole world looked in slow motion. So yes, you knew it was him. You watch him, never leaving eye contact. You watch how when Luke comes back, he and the rest of the boys go to sit across the room from you. Even though Michael’s back was to you for a second, you knew he was still aware of your presence. They sat across the room from each other, staring into the other’s eyes. They felt the same racing heart and sweaty hands. They felt the same connection. They both worried that if they look away for even a second, it would be ruined. That if they look away, then they will never find each other again.
You stand abruptly, causing Michael to stand also. You give him a small smile, and walk over to the receptionist, and give your papers to her. She smiles at you and promises to put it into the database. You give her a smile in return, and turn to walk out. You meet eyes with Michael again, he is still standing next to the boys. They boys called for his attention, but little did they know he was giving all his attention to you.
You watch, slowly making you way to the door, as Calum follows Michael’s gaze and sees you. His eyes widen. Calum understood what was going on, but he keeps his mouth shut, and watches the two of you like a soap opera. Then you bump into a warm chest,
“Sorry babe,”
“Sorry babe,”
Micheal suddenly wanted to kill Luke, wring his neck for bumping into her. Micheal vaguely noticed Luke standing up to return his forms, but didn't think much of it, until he bumped into you, and called you ‘babe.’ Michael wants to throw a hissy fit, and yell to the world, that you were only his ‘babe.’ Michael watches as you turn your attention away from himself and to Luke.
“It’s fine,” She promises in an angelic voice. Micheal melts at her words, even if they aren't directed to him
“How about I get you a cup of coffee, to make up for it?” Luke asks, checking out her body. This made Michael fuming, nobody should be checking his girl out like that. Especially Michaels best mate. Micheal take a step towards them, ready to jump in to save her, if she needs it. She takes a glance at Micheal, before shaking her head.
Michael takes that glance as a cue and walks up to them and wraps an arm around her. His girl. Luke looks at the couple curiously. “So you won’t go out with me because your into him?!” Luke shouts, outraged. “He gets everything!” Luke yells in frustration, making her flinch a little. Micheal feels her flinch and pulls her a little closer to him
“I’d hope she’s into me, she’s my soulmate,” Micheal explains to a fuming Luke. Luke’s eyes go a little soft and whispers out a quick, “oh” +++
` “Yeah,” Micheal says, the awkward moment settling in. Michael brought her back to the LA house. They all sat down at the couch, and were watching the girl, who had yet to announce her name. Brynn, Calum’s soulmate seemed to be the only one who could move or talk. She had wrapped Michael’s girl in her arms the moment they were introduced and continued to blabber on about being the best of friends. She wouldn't let go of Michael’s soulmate until Calum pried her off.
“So what’s your name” Brynn says, causing the whole group to lighten up a little. The proposition of new information made them all excited. She opens her mouth to speak when a small chime erupts from Michael’s and her’s phones. Michael unlocks his phone to see a text from Finger Print Mania, announcing her name, that she is a college student along with an address.
“Y/N Y/L/N” She says quietly. She seems to shrink in her seat with each syllable that she says. The boys all nod to what she said, still looking at her. Michael was different though, he stared at her. He wanted to know her. He wants to know every inch of her face. He wants to know every twitch and every signal she gives. He wants to know the woman that he will spend the rest of his life with.
Then she get up.
Then you get up.
How stupid could you be to go back to his house with him? He’s your idol, not your soulmate! You can’t deny the bond you to share, but after about twenty minutes staring at him and the rest of the boys, you couldn't stand it anymore. You got up to leave. Michael quickly stands after you. “I’m sorry, I have to go,” You say as simply as you can before practically bolting out the door. Michael shouts something after you, something about texting. You ignore him though and start running.
It takes you about ten minutes to find your way back to your apartment. It turns out you were only a couple of blocks away, but with your poor navigation it takes longer than the standard five minutes. You walk into your apartment that you share with your college friends Brian and Mia. They are soulmates to eachother, and you see the both of them on the couch making out.
“Get a room,” You say, disgusted by their PDA. “Don’t have to when its my apartment,” Brian smartly replies, earning a quick response by you, “Not your apartment, it’s ours,” you say smartly. Brian groans out a whatever, but the pair doesn't move. You leave the pair in favor of your room. You sit on your bed and contemplate what just happened. Your idol is your soulmate. How could this happen? One day you are on the internet looking him up, the next day he was looking you up and down. This can’t be happening you decide, its just a dream. You flop down onto your bed and try to forget.
+++
Michael stands outside her door. There was an address on the text Finger Print Mania sent, and so here he was. Michael has never felt so anxious. Its a different kind of anxiety than when they are about to go onstage. Its more nervous and jittery. He wiggles on his feet, but not in excitement to see the crowed.
The boys offered to come with him, along with Brynn (Calum’s soulmate), but Michael said no. He somehow understood that he had to do this alone. Wether it be pride driving him, or his own selfishness. He knocks on the door, waiting a few beats before it opens up to reveal a boy. Michael’s first instinct is to turn around and bolt. It wasn't her. Is this even her house? Why would she put a fake address into the text?
“Hello?” The boy asks, looking Michael up and down. He hears a voice call out behind him asking who was at the door, but it wasn’t her either. The boy looks at Michael expectantly, and suddenly Michael jumps to introduce himself.
“I’m Micheal Clifford. Is Y/N here?” He asks. The boy looks at him suspiciously. A girl walks up behind him and wraps her arms around the boy. She give a curious look at Micheal. She mummers something about knowing the name.
“What do you need with Y/N?” The boy asks, protectively. This causes Michel to wonder who he is to Y/N. God forbid he was her boyfriend or something, because Micheal would punch him straight in the nose.
“I’m her soulmate” “I’m her soulmate”
You went down into the kitchen to grab some cheetos, your ultimate comfort food. When you hear his voice. How did he find you? Then it occurs to you, you added your address in the text. You bang your hand against your head and whisper stupid a couple of times. Micheal had been trying to text you for a few days now (without you responding), and it seems he has now decided to show up at your door.
Its not that you didn’t want him, because god did you want him. You were just shocked. You literally stalk him and suddenly he’s your soulmate? How do you explain how you know, in detail, the conditions of his birth, when he barely knows your name? You shrink back up the stairs, hoping that your friends, Brian and Mia, know somehow to not let him in.
You hear his voice get a little louder and you know they let him in. You scowl, mad that your telepathy didn't work. Brian yells up the stairs for you, but you ignore him, sneaking into your room to hide. Yeah, if he wasn't your soulmate, you would be all over him, but now you are resorting to hide in your own home.
“She probably can’t hear me, just go up the stairs its the first door on your right,” Brian says, allowing Michael into the depths of the home. You scurry deeper into the room and try to make it look like you didn't just hear his conversation. You throw your laptop onto your lap and open it up to see Michael’s face. It’s your fan account. You hadn’t been able to touch your computer in a few days because you were too scared to come across him on your tumblr feed. There is a knock on your door, and you quickly close your laptop in favor of a real life Micheal.
+++ Micheal is in your doorway. Standing tall, but you can tell hat he is scared. Scared of you sending him away, scared of rejection. If only he knew that you could never do that. You could never send him away. It took all that was in you to stay away, and now that he is here, you can’t stop. Or if Michael was talking, he would say Don’t Stop. You hum the rest of your song in your head.
Don’t stop doin’ whatcha dooooooiiiinnnn’ ‘Cause every time you move to the beat….
“Y/N” Michael says breathless. He steps into the room, and you try to pay attention to him but his damn song keeps playing in your head
it gets harder for me and you know it, know it, know it,
He steps to you, and squats down to your level, and places his hands around your head. He has a desperate look in his eyes as he looks into your eyes. “Say something” He whispers. You know on some level you should say something funny, or sexy, or even his name. But that is sadly not what you said, or yelled.
“Don’t stooopppp, ‘Cause you know that I like it, every time you walk in the room, you got all eyes on you and you know it, know it, know it,” You yell in his face. Yes. You yelled your soulmate’s song, in his face. You want to put your face into your hands and hide, but he doesn't let you.
“Good thing to know that your a fan,” He whispers, laughing slightly at your outburst.
“Good think to know that your a fan,” Micheal whispers, laughing slightly at Y/N’s outburst
Michael looks at her, unsure what to do next. He already over her. He always knew that he would eventually fall in love with his soulmate, but he didn’t know it would happen so quickly. “Maybe,” She says, not committing to being a fan. Maybe she has the same fear as him, of rejection? Micheal give another laugh, knowing that she would never be rejected by him. Especially not if she is a fan, its a bonus that she is.
“I’ll teach you the chords on my guitar,” Micheal whispers a promise. Holding her hand. She nods to what she said. “I don’t care if your a fan, you are my everything,” Micheal promises.

Riverdale ‘Chapter Sixteen: The Watcher in the Woods’
I really enjoyed this episode! This season has taken a turn and now has a completely different vibe from the first season but I love it!
So, it turns out that Kevin was in the woods at the time when the shots were fired. He was out in the woods with a guy when he found Jason’s body too. What is it with Kevin hearing and finding things when he’s in the middle of the woods?
Midge survived! Moose shielded her body, and somehow he survived too. Not sure how he managed that, but that’s great! So far there has only been one death this season, so I guess things aren’t too bad yet. But I have a feeling they will get much worse. Archie goes to talk to Moose, and it seems that it was the same green eyed guy. Midge says that his eyes were blank, like the devils eyes.
Veronica invites her friends over to watch “The Matchelorotte’. Mostly, she just wants her friends to be formally introduced to her father. They’re all a little jumpy considering what happened, especially Archie. Hiram says some kind of odd things, and actually applauds Archie for trying to do something because the police are not much help. An he invites Archie over for dinner, which Veronica is thrilled about. Her mother on the other hand, not so much.
Archie has his gun hidden in a box with comic books. One in particular catches his eye. The Red Circle. Next minute, he’s gathering all his teammates and other randoms from the school to join his gang. Like a patrol I guess, where they just keep an eye on the town and help anyone who may be in danger. Except, they don’t carry guns or serious weapons. A baseball bat is Archie’s weapon of choice.
Archie and Reggie are out patrolling the town, when they get a call from Ethel, who is walking along a dark street at night. Umm, don’t you know that is something you should not do, considering the demogorgan might come and get you? This van keeps circling around, following her, but they save her.
Archie’s dinner with the Lodges goes fine, for the most part. Until Hiram wants to drink rum alone with Archie. Veronica isn’t pleased. And Hermione is so demeaning to her daughter. Ugh, she is really getting on my nerves.
Hiram’s talk with Archie is basically just the ‘protective father who doesn’t want this guy to hurt my daughter’ talk. But he also encourages him to go hardcore against the Black Hood. For some odd reason he’s really encouraging this teenager to go up against a killer.
Jughead starts at Southside High. It’s full of thugs and they even have to go through security and get their bags checked before they enter the school. Students are downing jingle jangle, and the drug apparently originated from Southside High.
Jughead quickly makes friends with Toni, who is a Serpent. He is one of them so they look out for him because he’s like family. But Jughead, being the weirdo loner he is, doesn’t want to hang out with them. He wants to sit alone. He ignores the Serpents warnings, but things seem to go okay at first. He even gets a teacher to agree to reviving the school newspaper. Jughead will be the writer, and Toni will be the photographer.
Jughead decides to stay late one night, which is obviously a smart thing to do. I mean, a sketchy school by yourself at night, that sounds like a great idea! Well, Jughead ends up getting beat up by the Ghoulies, this rival gang who the Serpents warned him about. He lies to Betty and says he fell off his motorbike. From then on, Jughead has learnt his lesson and hangs around the Serpents, because he needs the protection.
So, the Ghoulies, they’re the ones who distribute jingle jangle I suppose. Are they somehow connected to Clifford Blossom’s drug business? They have to be right?
Betty finds a mysterious package on the front porch. What do you know, it’s from the hooded figure, who goes by the name the ‘Black Hood’. There is a letter that he wants published in the newspaper. It says that he killed the ‘child predator', Miss Grundy (finally someone calls her what she really was!). He shot the ‘adulterer’ (Fred), and the ‘drug and sex addicted teenagers’ (Midge and Moose). And he was also nice enough to include some souvenirs from his attacks. Fred’s wallet and Miss Grundy’s sunglasses. He says he is targeting sin, hence the way her referred to his victims. And he thinks there is sin all over Riverdale, and he is trying to get rid of it.
Polly is back. And, she’s still pregnant. It seems that she’s been pregnant for ages, but hey maybe time goes really slowly on this show. She’s a bit terrified to be in Riverdale, and thinks she has committed sins. She is unmarried and pregnant with her third cousins babies. So I guess it’s reasonable that she thinks she may be the next victim. We see her for all of two minutes and then she gets the hell out of Riverdale.
Betty has been trying to discourage Kevin from going out in the woods for ‘night jogs’ as he claims, but really he goes to hook up with random guys. But when he does go out for an actual night jog, he gets into a car with a stranger and is stabbed! I was in shock! What the hell?? But thank god, it was just a vision. He began to rethink everything, and he went home. His father tells him he only wants what is best for him, and he wants to try to understand him. Aww, quite a heartwarming moment.
The whole episode Cheryl she was just sketchily eavesdropping and spying on people and had all these great one liners. I don’t really know what the point of her in this episode was to be honest, but I loved her none the less.
Archie gets Dilton Doiley to film a propaganda video for the Red Circle. Archie is in the front, with his gang all shirtless wearing red hoods behind him. He gives this Taken-esque speech. “We will find you, and we will end you.” He may as well be Liam Neeson saying “I will find you, and I will kill you.”
Hiram looks like a proud dad watching that video. In all honestly, the video is pretty embarrassing. Who is going to take this red headed pretty boy recording an amateur video with a cringey speech seriously?? I feel like it’s just going to give the Black Hood more incentive to attack. But hey, maybe that’s what Hiram wants? He did encourage Archie to really get down and do something, and maybe he did that in the hopes that he will fail.
I really enjoyed the episode. Currently, I think my main suspect is Sheriff Keller. He’s been a pretty terrible cop from what we’ve seen so far. The cops weren’t even close to figuring out who killed Jason, these kids are the ones to figured it out. And he really didn’t want Archie to start his gang. And he has green eyes. But I kind of hope he’s not for Kevin’s sake. It could be a new character? I don’t know, and honestly don’t really want to theorise much. I just want to watch and enjoy the show because it’s so much fun to watch!
