Simon has a new assignment.

pairing: bodyguard!ghost x actress!reader 1 | gold rush masterlist.

after years exhausting his body in the military and too many losses to count, Simon decided to retire. goodbye extensive deployments, food and sleep deprivation, constant adrenaline pump in his veins, hours spent washing the blood off of his fingernails. except he didn’t truly retire. life as a civilian again was too strange, too boring. he thrives in following orders and being the best at it. he missed having a purpose, even if it’s far from saving the world.

so, because of that, he agreed on joining a private military company as a contractor. never takes the dirty, mercenary-like jobs though ��� despite being rusted, his moral compass is still there, so he usually sticks with the security, training, bodyguarding type of work. easy enough to not take a toll on his body, and to not strain his conscience with the worry of ending innocent lives to cover up some bastard’s filth, but demanding enough to keep his mind out of his own life for a while.

the guy on the other side of the line doesn’t tell him much about the new task. bodyguard for an actress, indefinite time, details via e-mail. a few minutes later, the computer screen lights up with the case information and his eyes skim through the text; famous actress, has been receiving threatening letters and who ultimately has a stalker. a seemingly uncapturable one, as the police have not been able to trace them for months. incompetent wankers. in his prime he would locate terrorists with ease; nothing he couldn’t do right now, but his contract was strict – keep her safe and keep to yourself.

he doesn’t recognize the name, but the small picture attached to the message is slightly familiar, maybe from one of the times he spent hours flicking through the channels on the telly while battling a crippling insomnia. his brows knit together when he peers at the set of rules that accompanies the e-mail. no talking, no touching unless extremely necessary, must keep distance at all times.

in the months he’s been working in the company, he never had a job with an actual celebrity – mostly politicians and businesspeople, extremely straightforward and simple to execute, usually for a short period of time. he’s convinced that it will be the longest mission of his life, probably dealing with an entitled rich woman who’s used to having everybody begging at her feet.

dread fills his mind as he watches the trees quickly passing by his window on the car. the drive to the meeting is short enough to contain the rate of the antipathy brewing on his chest, but long enough to make him question accepting the assignment.

he pulls up on the driveway and walks towards a tall, modern building, filled with frantic people walking from side to side. glancing at his phone, he re-reads the details of the reunion; second door on the 23th floor, her manager will be expecting you. his fingers tap on the side of his thigh as the lift raises to the office level, eyes glaring at the mirror in the back of the platform. the image on the glass differs from the one on his past – military buzzcut and skull-printed balaclava replaced by messy blond locks and a neck gaiter, still covering a bit of his face even after all this time. old habits die hard.

the doors pry open right after the number appears on the screen and he walks down the hallway to the office, stopping on his tracks as he notices a feminine voice coming from inside the room. “i’m scared just as much as you, but is this really necessary?” she’s in there too? wasn’t the meeting only with the guy?

“yes, princess, it is necessary. do you want to make the front-page news as a corpse?” another voice can be heard responding, this time, male. must be the manager.  “in case you've forgotten, i’m also your friend, and i’m merely concerned about your safety. we cannot let that stunt from last week happen again.” stunt. he recalls part of the information on the file, depicting how she was almost assaulted by a weirdo that followed her on the street; however, the creepy prick was cleared from being the stalker and left the station on bail. great justice system. 

“we’ve already increased the security on your house, he was just hired to keep you safe on the outside.” he decides to stop eavesdropping and knocks sharply on the door. “must be him.” the man says, and he listens as footsteps approach the entryway.

“well, hello there. please, come in,” he steps aside, allowing Simon to enter the room. the office is fairly average, leather couch on one corner, portraits on the wall of what he assumes are the man’s clients, but all of the attention goes to the large windows showing a perfect view of the city. “so, i’m Daniel, the great manager as you may know," he smugly speaks, "and of course you already know her.” he gestures to the woman on the armchair.

the woman from the picture. the woman from the late night movie he was absentmindedly watching on a late night. you. you look the same as he'd seen before, but somehow entirely different. the warm sunlight coming through the glass shines on your skin when you stand on your feet, golden flecks twinkling in your irises as you offer him your name and extend a hand to greet him, sweetly mouthing “and you are?”

he shakes your hand with a firm grasp, stirring away the sudden void in his brain and swallowing the lump on his throat that hindered his words. “Ghost.” easy detachment. his gruff voice reverberates in the space as he repeats the orders in his head, the sense of doubt starting to cloud his judgement. keep to yourself. maybe the job won’t be as bad as he thought.

been a bit obsessed with this idea so i decided to write it and see how it goes.

MONTHLY MEDIA: October 2024

I'm not one for horror so don't expect too much spooky stuff out of this recap.

……….FILM……….

Dredd (2012) Karl Urban deserves greater recognition for this if for no other reason that that frown. I doubt we'll ever get another one of these so to me the ending sends a clear message that the only way to avoid becoming a bad apple is to quit the bushel.

Perfect Blue (1997) Loosely knowing the premise, I thought I was prepared for what I watched but HO BOY was I not! Some truths are timeless and I think the now dated technology makes it all hit even harder. So well directed and a perfect use of animation. This is going to stick with me for a while.

Millennium Actress (2001) After Perfect Blue, I wanted to continue with the director's filmography (Satoshi Kon) and wasn't ready for how this would FLOOR ME. Such an emotional and lovely depiction of the intermingling between art and life and what drives an artist throughout their career. And the trope of characters playing multiple roles in different time periods will always land for me.

Death Becomes Her (1992) I only know Meryl Streep from this, The Devil Wear Prada, and the Mamma Mia series so to me, she's strictly a comedic actor. Given its subject matter, this continues to age surprisingly well.

Hansel & Gretel (2002) Felt like a made-for-tv movie but turns out it had a theatrical release! I did laugh at the Boogeyman subbing in for the Sandman and the design of the Witch's oven is cool, but that's about it.

……….TELEVISION……….

Dandadan (Episode 1.01 to 1.04) Teens fight aliens and ghosts? Heck yes. I will say the first ep has an alien abduction scene that almost turned me off of the entire show but once you get past that, everything else is really great. Fun worldbuilding, clever rules, and at its core it's a charming romcom. Just promise me you'll watch past the abduction.

Neon Genesis Evangelion (Episode 1.23 to 1.26) Okay so that's the ending! Not what I expected but you know what? I don't mind it. I know there's a movie that continues on after this BUT if it ended here I think I'd be okay with it. What a strange series.

Love is Blind (Episode 7.01 to 7.13) I keep thinking "why would anyone still sign up for this?" but here I am into another season asking "why would anyone still watch this?" And dang that reunion was meeeeeeeessy.

Love is Blind UK (Episode 1.01 to 1.04) This iteration feels a little more sincere, but that may be because the cast seems a little older or because the machine hasn't yet pumped out minor celebrities so folks don't know what might lie ahead? Either way I'm a fan.

……….YOUTUBE……….

Dead Man's Bones (Ft. Ryan Gosling) - Documentary Special Presentation by Pitchfork While spooky season is nearly over, the music of Dead Man's Bones is evergreen. Watch this, if you haven't seen it, and especially listen to the album if you haven't heard it. VIDEO

Game of Clones by Just Write As much a reflection on how artists can't create in a vacuum as it is a critique of the modern tv landscape. There's a lot on influence and the different ways artists react to prior work that I found both informative for my own approach and just generally really interesting. VIDEO

Why Are Movies So Obsessed With Trains? and The Infinite Possibilities of Train Action Scenes | Blue Flame Special by Patrick H. Willems I love trains. VIDEO (Obsessed) VIDEO (Blue Flame Special)

Black Cops Won't Save Us by F.D Signifier I'm not going to be able to add anything new to what's already been said in this video. VIDEO

……….READING……….

Hallowe'en Party by Agatha Christie (Complete) Very excited I found this at the start of the month but turns out Halloween plays a very small role. Not one of her strongest, perhaps because I felt like I'd pieced the mystery together far too soon.

Swords and Deviltry by Fritz Leiber (Complete) There's something so wonderful about a story where two guys meet and immediately clock each other as awesome and become best friends. Such a delight. The end may be a worn out trope that you could spot a mile away, but it's all so evocative and swiftly paced that I just have to shrug and accept it was written in 1970.

Beauty by Kerascoët & Hubert (Complete) I wish I knew about where to find more comics like this. The artwork is loose and evocative but filled with details when necessary (and the COLOURS are so fantastic and are contained to each page to really highlight the format). The writing is also killer as it's both mature and whimsical. Every time I read this I'm reminded of just how fantastic it is.

The Adventures of Tintin: Red Rackham's Treasure (Complete) Grew up watching the cartoon yet never read any of the comics so when I saw this at a thrift, I was really excited. While mostly self-contained, it really does feel like it's part of a bigger story and I suppose I was expecting a little more pulp adventure? The art is stellar so I'll continue to pick these up as I see them.

……….AUDIO……….

Slugger by Sasami (2024) Two solid songs though I admit I tend to prefer her fuzzier/more dangerous-sounding tracks from Squeeze. Here's hoping the full album has a good mix.

Search Engine (Podcast) Always a great listen but their recent two-parter about why it's so hard to tax billionaires in the united states was a particular standout.

……….GAMING……….

Oz: A Fantasy Role-Playing Setting (Andrews McMeel Publishing) The Tuesday Crew just relocated some migrating birds and are now choosing from their myriads of quests. You can read all about them here!

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Nintendo) Top down Zelda is always going to be great, and this art style is 100% what I want out of games. Do I like the summoning mechanic? Sure. Do I think it leads to game design feeling half-baked? Yes. But I will say it stuck the landing so overall: big fan.

And that's it. See you in November!

You’re just a worm with a mustache

[crispfencer]

Hello! Here's my blogpost about what it was like as an audience member on Saturday Night Takeaway!

Three tiers of audience members:

Participants

These people hang out in The Broadcaster (the pub the guy from episode one got whisked out of) and mosey on down to get entry whenever they feel like it. They also get to watch the rehearsal. I have no idea how to become a participant but I have a feeling some of it is casted?? They were a very diverse bunch, whereas only three people out of the 200 in my queue weren't white. These people get wristbands and have their photos taken for the audience cam, and get directed to the aisle seats if they're going to be chosen for something later.

Priority

These people paid for the £30 a year Audiencestore subscription, meaning they get more or less guaranteed entry. There was about 50 of them and they got whisked through security hours before us, and then just stood behind a barrier for the same amount of time as us lol

General

The trenches!! I stood in the cold for about 5 hours with no real guarantee that I'd get in. About 50 or so at the front of the queue were allowed to join priority but after that it was a waiting game. The guy who runs the queue said our role is basically to fill seats for the participants who don't turn up, and then to fill the comp seats when they don't get used (eg if busted had 20 tickets to give away to friends, family etc and only 5 turn up, General will fill the remaining 15 seats.) He said once the allocation of seats is filled by participation and priority tickets, he can get anywhere between 4 and 100 of us in. As he learnt more about which comps had been used, he slowly culled the back end of the queue. We all prayed he wouldn't get to us lol.

I got there at 14:30~ and was let into the studio at around 18:45. Some experienced queue goers had brought picnics and hot food, which I will definitely be doing next time!

The studio:

When I entered I felt like I was at Disneyland or something! The air had this magical haze about it, which I soon discovered was because they pump smoke into the room to make the lighting look nicer lol. If you're looking onto the audience from the stage, we all came in from the left, and the crew and vans and stuff all came in from the right (the staircase doors at the top are just for ant and dec to spring out of lol, they lead to a brick wall). There's an upper layer which had a few junior looking people operating some..... spots I think?

There's another blue booth on the opposite end to the star guest announcer one which I can only assume is for some tech direction stuff.

The warmup:

We were made to do all sorts of warmups like dancing, karaoke and stuff. The clip of the audience all waving used during the 'after the break' inserts was recorded here. We were also told the rules (no rude gestures if the camera goes to you, never stop smiling, laugh a lot) which are pretty similar to other shows. The unique instruction was to not 'grab or hug ant and dec' when they decend the steps, but we were allowed to high five etc. During each ad break we were also schooled on any call and response lines (ring my bell, Stephen, etc). After this he 'brought the boys out' and we all went wildcrazy, obvs. Then the main cast all took a big end of series photo together.

When dec was walking up the stairs to get into position a woman in the audience grabbed him and said something like 'I went to school with you'???? it was really fucking awkward because he sort of blanked and everyone else our column was just sort of staring. Such a weird place to accost him for a reunion, he handled it with grace but it was rude as hell imo.

The guy in charge told us to turn off our phones and not take any photos, but I set mine to silent and audio recorded the whole show lol.

I hardly noticed when we actually went live, since we were so busy doing all these other tasks it still felt like a rehearsal. Made me way less nervous than I was in the queue!

The show:

You saw this so I won't go into much! Ant and Dec were only slightly amplified to us, so we had to stop cheering to hear what they were saying. They both looked insanely beautiful. They also looked tiny.

During the happiest minute the presenters would stay for a little bit longer with the person they rewarded, to say congrats etc. I think Andi Peters and Fleur took the most time and Mulhern took the least lol.

Whenever they go to someone at home the autocue says DEC (SKYPE) which I found funny

With regards to improvising around the autocue script, Mulhern did it the most, then Andi > Dec > Ant > Fleur > Rob > Jordan. Overall Jordan looked very shy and out of his depth lol, I wanted to tell him he was doing great

Ant didn't seem to enjoy watching himself on screen at all, and would generally grimace/look away. Dec would laugh at the things he himself said LOL

During the ad breaks Ant and Dec would run off to have five minutes backstage with each other. When they didn't, they'd stand around together while talking to the director and others

At one point where we in the studio thought we weren't live, they shared a private joke and kissed each other on each cheek. I thought I'd imagined it but somehow @quicklyandrogynousfox-blog caught it!!

They seemed to stand a lot closer when off camera which made me go insane

At the end when Busted (!!!!) were setting up, Mulhern strode up to them and started chatting. Jordan kind of milled about behind him like he wanted to join in, but after a few false starts he just sort of stared at his feet 😭 ily jordan

(I didn't realise Busted were British, sorry guys)

Ant and Dec came back at the end to say that tonight was their favourite episode! Afterwards a few words were said about Paul O'Grady, because a lot of the crew had worked with him over the years and were finding the news hard.

Other bits and peices/my own diseased analysis:

Dec was very dec-like lol, when ant quickly moved into position at the top of the steps, Dec stopped to wave and shake everyone's hands like he was the queen or something. He loves giving and receiving attention lol, ant was much more reserved

Stephen's behaviour correlated with what others who've met him irl have said, in that he's basically two different people. His TV persona is very loud and comic but literally as soon as the camera is off him (like in the happiest minute) he goes super shy and looks like he'd rather be anywhere else.

Fleur is a laugh, I like Fleur

Rob seemed quite scared of how enthusiastic the audience were

During the undercover both ant and dec laughed whenever rylan would say something vaguely diva-ish. Ant didn't laugh as much as dec did, who really got the giggles.

I think that's it! Thanks/sorry for reading so much.

𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐫𝐢, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐦𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧

Growing up in a traveling circus group with his sister Alarice, Demitri knew little of the world outside of the Candlepark Carnivale. As far as this simple, pure-hearted giant was concerned, life was about bringing smiles to the audience’s faces, & dazzling them with his incredible feats of strength. From lifting oversized rocks to hurling them at record distances with playful ease, Demitri has entertained hundreds & thousands of spectators over the years.

One day, however, Demitri began to hear the panicked screams from afar during one of his performances. Soon, the smell of smoke permeated the confused giant’s nose before he began to slowly comprehend that a terrible fire had started somewhere in the carnival. Immediately, Demitri thought of his sister’s safety, & despite all the regulatory rules he’s known, broke out of his established perimeters during a show for the first time.

The panic-stricken giant assessed his surroundings & began running to find his sister. However, as the Demitri turned a corner, a line of vehicles suddenly pulled out in front of him amidst the smoke-filled streets & screeched to a halt. A mysterious, masked gang stepped out from the vehicles, drawing their weapons to stop the giant dead in his tracks.

With adrenaline pumping through his veins & finding Alarice as the only thing he understood, Demitri saw a nearby stone wall plastered with balloons & posters. With a warcry-like roar, he punched clean through the wall, bear-hugging a pile of fallen boulders & hurled them at the armed men, leaping for their lives before the enormous tumbling rocks crushed their vehicles like tin-cans. Paying the downed men no heed, Demitri charged past them and kept on running to find his sister, the only family he’s ever known.

Finally, Demitri began to recognize familiar tents & signs that led to Alarice’s venue, the Crimson Mane. This time however, he looked up to see with horror that the entire stage was engulfed in flames. From the smoke & debris, he was relieved to see the silhouette of Alarice emerging. Little did he know, their reunion this time would alter the course of both their lives forever

My grandma often tells me the same story:

There were two girls at her junior high who fought all the time. Grandma was friends with them both, and she became very popular by refusing to ever discuss the conflict with either of them.

Grandma provoked my 3 year old cousin into hitting her. She refused to accept his no, and then gave him a full force spanking while his mother screamed for her to stop. She is still angry at my cousin for "striking" her.

That was at a family reunion. The night before my uncles would have gotten drunk while we played canasta, and later we'd all try to plan the next family reunion using Robert's Rules of Order while the drunk uncles said hateful things.

We did this every year until I refused to attend and then it fell apart. If I wasn't there, it wasn't any fun.

Grandma was the only Catholic person where she lived after she married my grandpa. She had a statue of Mary on her yard, and sometimes her neighbors would ask her questions about it. This made her feel so religiously persecuted that she religiously persecuted everyone around her for the rest of her life.

My family, these people who can't stand my queerness, neurodiversity and culture are texting me relentlessly; she's had another stroke. I ask weakly if they want me to stop by, if they need anything, knowing I will not be stopping by or sending anything.

They reply with medical updates, too cowardly to say don't come, don't help, there's no place for you here. But they text and DM and run me down on LinkedIn.

They miss my uniqueness, I know it. In times of fear, uncertainty, sickness and death, I am a thoughtful, compassionate, & practical companion. There's no one else who does that for them - they chase away all the butch lesbians. They think they can pick and choose the parts of me they want, and they're confused that it doesn't work that way.

I added her name to the mishebeirach; maybe if the broken blood vessels heal in her brain, they can pump blood to the parts that used to believe in vaccines.

Every so often, someone tosses me the rumor that she's going to die, that she has 1-3 months. They reach for me. I could send them the exact scrap of poetry to cling to. They want to know if I'd go to the funeral.

Of course, I won't go to the funeral; there's a pandemic, and they're too dangerous to be around. But I don't tell them that, and I don't send them the scrap of poetry either.

[garyoakriginal]

The two of you met not on the battlefield or under cover but on vacation. Both taking a breather from the non-stop action of what was effectively multiple alliances crumbling. Some outlandish villains had gone too far and broken some unwritten rules to crush a superhero team. The next 6 months were hell. Suddenly, you were now the old guard, a terror to behold. She had been one to rise to the occasion, a new beacon and footing, a standard to be measured from.

Neither of you knew that. It was a crowded beach bar, and you both needed to sit, to vent about the little nothings, to dance with someone in the moonlight after the nerves died down. One thing led to another. You decided to quit, to separate yourself from what you were. Devi went back into hell, or what was left of the mess. Contact after that vacation was sparratic, messy, and each solving things your own way. Funny enough, what you did helped her. You ensured no power vacuum but a calm transfer of power by breaking up your old "company." Then it was like you were both still on that beach, and time flew. It wasn't until you went down on one knee that she told you she wasn't some firefighter but Torch, now Beacon, the newest B-Tier hero with that corporate rename and rebrand.

You tried to tell Devi about the things you'd done, but she didn't care who you were before. Now running a non-profit was the person I was to her, that guy on the beach just letting her feel like a person after so long of feeling like a tool. You said it mattered, Devi said I was being too critical. You hated that you gave her the bare minimum of courtesy that day, and she treated you like a saint. The monster was kinder than the suits.

Seasons changed, years past, Beacon, Devi, had risen to the top of B-Tier and then some new pup wanted to show its fangs. A desire to make a statement to prove that they could take down those of note from the war. When those suits finally let you see her, it was after multiple surgeries. They were cowards; priorities were set, she knew the risks, it was the duty of a hero. PR approved nothings to distance from the truth. They were scared, but of the wrong thing. She smiled when she woke up. I told her to rest, others could hold the world up for a while.

There would be no reunion of my old lieutenants. They all slowly exited following my example. What kind of boss would make citizens get dirty again? It was time for my old theatrics. What made people afraid wasn't the size of the organization, or the training of the grunts but what was left. Husks as the suits called them, anything to not say thralls or zombies. A PR nightmare, my favorite.

There was some broadcast being played, as this I-don't-care-about-your-name made the same copy pasted monolog over the frequencies. The main crew was out, celebrating about the town, and the base was easy for the taking.

When the bay doors opened, I could see the driver's face from the return cruiser. A hundred hungry mouths opened and their hands reached out stretching to salvation, sustenance.

There are three kinds of people when most of your colleagues are turned into thralls; frenzy, flee, or freeze, all are done while screaming. The driver attempted to flee. It was good to see some base level of training hadn't been lost since I'd been away. But I popped the tires before they could escape. They never reinforced those enough.

Surrounded, the new pups came out to fight. My thralls get a much lower but still effective version of my drain powers that made them this way. Most can't make another thrall before "returning" to the living, but a dozen or so do the trick. The first to open the door found that out the hard way. Thralls may look like corpses, but their bodies are pumping every hormone they can to stay alive. "Be careful, they can rip an arm off" I taunt. He was almost ripped apart before groaning and turning back into the cruiser.

A sudden jolt as one of the pups had some kind of concussive energy power. Good for crowd control, bad for the recharge time it takes to do bursts against a quick target. I was already on the roof and my hand through their shoulder and into their chest before they could take a breath. And gone again before another could send a blast out to retaliate.

"Who are you!" Cries out a stern voice. I snap my fingers, and the raving droves of their former henchmen now stand at attention. I talk through them, all in unison. "I have been given many names and titles; Nightstalker, Husk Maker, Vampire, the Don of Downtown, and the Killer of A-Tier. But today, I am just a pissed off husband."

"You're a ghost, you caused the war and died after fighting for weeks straight."

The pups did know their bedtime stories. Their leader knew what always happened after introductions. He fired a blast above to obscure the area, but I see with energy while working. Even being tricky and using their powers, I could still tell the difference between their bodies and the shapes their powers would make. "Know you will be forgotten like so many others" was the last thing they heard.

The news the next day said that there was an internal rebellion that had killed this new A-tier Villain along with almost everyone involved in their operation. A common occurrence back in the day for quick to rise villains. The following weeks would have some of the grunts wake up and give conflicting accounts. The conspiracy sites went wild with speculation but were chalked up to pushing hysteria.

Devi laughed, "Who would say The Vampire is still alive is counting on a little too much superstition!" She cracked herself up enough to hurt her ribs. I told her to be careful as I adjusted the support pillows. As soon as I was done, she was up and tracking the newest suit deployment in the city from our window, like a mix between an ecstatic kid and a talent judge. "The doctor said three weeks bed rest and no strenuous activities" was met with groans.

But really, I don't think it was him. He has a thing for things in threes and leaves them as a calling card, and there were no zombies. Devi, they're called husks, PR keeps pushing off your promotion to A-Tier specifically because you keep calling things whatever you like, and I chuckle. Is that all you're going on, great detective?

Not just that, or rather, he isn't back. This isn't some grand return.

But he's alive, out there, somewhere, like your pale white whale?

No, he died years ago. Funny story, though. I met him.

Did you?

Yeah, he wasn't that bad of a guy, and it really threw me off. Before the war, I would have called him a monster. But then I had killed people, and I told him. He didn't say I had to do it for the status quo or that I was just like the villains I fought against. That I did it to live and to save and for the people I loved. But that blood was blood and that we wash off the wrongs by making things right. I could tell it came from a place where he thought about the answer. Then he asked me to dance in the moonlight. That night, I saw The Vampire die before my eyes.

I paused for a moment, then asked if she wanted tea while reading. It was greated with a smile and a nod.

You’re a retired S-tier supervillain. After you retired, you married a B-tier hero. You are forced back onto the stage when an A-tier villain attempts to kill your spouse.

Pump Rules Season 11 Trailer Reaction!

“I’ve never experienced someone getting cheated on and suddenly she becomes God!” Lala Kent yelled in this trailer.

Well, now you have.

That last picture of Ariana Madix standing on stage at what I presume is the Camp Emo Nite, was so awesome!

Season 11 will premiere of January the 30th, and I genuinely fear that this is going to be the redemption season for Tom Sandoval.

But I’m hoping for the best.

I don’t want to break anyone down into self-destruction, but if Sandoval isn’t taking any accountability or show any remorse, then it’s difficult to forgive him.

Scheana Shay appears to be trying to forgive him though.

She’s seen hugging him, and there was some tension going on with the women at BravoCon.

Katie Maloney-Schwartz told someone, and it looks like it’s Scheana: If you want a relationship with him, Ariana will cut you off.

They picked up filming immediately after the reunion wrapped, so this can get very chaotic and very intense.

Thankfully there’s more drama in this group that isn’t solely based on Scandoval.

Tom Schwartz revealed to Lala that he made out with Scheana on one of his many sinful trips to Las Vegas, and nobody had known about it.

Schwartz claimed that it was just one kiss, but it’s not the first time we’ve heard that.

Will this cause an issue between Scheana and Brock Davies? We can hear him say in the trailer:

“You make that as if this is fine, and it hasn’t been fine.”

The friendships that had been forged in the chaos of Scandoval is getting tested this season as their past comes back to haunt them.

And Scheana and Katie were never close, so how long will exactly this friendship last?

Sandoval and Schwartz are trying to date so they can get their mojo back, but that’s not something I would want to see… at all.

On the more bizarre twist of events though, Schwartz and Katie appear to be dating the same girl! A divorced couple fighting over the same woman.

Now that I would want to watch.
