#robyn big dummy

[etherealdemon]

three 🎲 for robyn! 💖

✨send me a # to learn an unusual hc about my muse!

4 — do they wear their hair down when they sleep, or tied up / braided?

robyn usually likes to keep her hair braided when she goes to sleep. she initially started doing it back in high school when she realised it made her hair look nice when she got up for school the next morning, but kept doing it when she found out that it helps reduce hair breakage. when she's feeling lazy, she usually just keeps her hair down when she sleeps.

14 — do they stay up too late? do they like staying up?

robyn tries her hardest to go to sleep at a decent time but she's not exactly the best at keeping her promises. she's the type of person who'll already be in bed but will still be on her phone for another three hours. ollie is another big distraction for her. it doesn't matter how sleepy she is, if ollie calls or texts her in the middle of the night, she will respond. there have been plenty of times where she'll literally meet ollie at the park near her house in the middle of the night wearing her pyjamas just because he said he wanted to hang out.

34 — are they the jealous type? what are they most likely to be jealous of?

robyn is usually not the jealous type. she never really gets jealous of other people and most of the time just ends up being really happy for them. however, robyn tends to get a little jealous whenever she sees other people flirting with ollie. at first she was in denial, she mostly said that she was protective over ollie that's why she didn't like it when other girls flirted with him, but what pushed her off the edge was when a girl in her class asked her if it was okay if she asked ollie to be her date to the prom. robyn was highkey annoyed and told the girl that ollie was already going with someone else. she asked him to prom as friends later that afternoon when they were hanging out.

One Hundred Nine. part 4

“Chris” Robyn said, biting my bottom lip as she held my hand “mhmmm” she is giving that face, I am not feeling it “just wait” she said, “for who?” I am not understanding why we are waiting “are you taking up for her?” I asked “no, I am just in shock she did that. She came to the bedroom, told me what you did, and I said well stop talking to him stupid then, Herb came, and she did this crying fit, then this. I don’t like it, this is why I said I am sick. Can you just stand by me for one moment, I don’t see Mel like that but clearly she is but please don’t do Herb like that” I kissed my teeth “fuck them, they need you more then you need them, they do. I don’t want you upset or even between us. Just let’s go and let them wallow, I’m shocked your fat ass brother is quiet” watching Nadia walking by us, Robyn is holding my hand “how could you make things so awkward between me and Chris; because we speak and get along you said that? To his wife at that!? Wow Rorrey, we have been together for years and you just got me in the family because you think I want fame, after this trip. I am really done with you, this, everything. It’s not worth it and I am over it, how could you” oh she is doing it, she turned and walked off “Rihanna I am sorry, I never flirted with Chris, and the same with him. It was wrong to do that, maybe he had some motive, but I didn’t do that” Nadia walked off “I don’t blame you” Robyn said, but that is sad. Rorrey is following her so maybe he does care, he needs a slap and a wakeup call “are you coming?” I asked “just please” oh she’s really not letting my hand go for anyone, walking with Robyn “Robz, I don’t want to hear it. He choked Herb” oh since when does she care “barely that” I laughed “it’s not about Herb, it’s about you. You know what we go through, you live through it with me. I can’t really believe that everyone here has pushed our marriage into shit and has tried to provoke Chris into acting out because we are happy, I am very hurt by it all. And you, to make these two play against each other. I told you it was a joke, you started it. Now you take it like a big girl if he does it back to you, I told you this. I am so hurt by you Mel, just because you were upset, luckily Chris and I are healing and this performance was really nothing to us” Robyn is not letting my hand go, she is moving us around this house. The fact Mel is silent speaks volumes; she knows she’s in the wrong for this. She was lashing out at me and dragged Herb into it but he’s a dummy for even letting a bird like that get involved, Mel is a bird.

Robyn has bought us back to the bedroom, I mean I haven’t questioned why, I just let her take me wherever “erm, I’m going to the beach club?” I said “so am I, I am getting dressed. I’m just not happy how things have turned but we have had the best time haven’t we?” Nodding my head “the most fun, I have enjoyed it with the people that have been rooting for us, it’s been good” I agreed “I feel some type of way, like she came here in the bedroom after what happened with you both. I’m here just like what the fuck. She said you need to tell Chris to stop, I said stop what exactly? I been done told you to stop yourself, she said he’s saying these things, I was like Melissa, you started, you end it; you have lived with us for years, you’re having a tantrum because you’re mad at Herb, she’s clutching at a relationship now. She admitted to not exactly liking Herb” raising an eyebrow “really!? Why the change?” I’m shocked “Mel is a whore, she has also cheated on him” I gasped “please, keep this in your stomach, please Chris. Promise me, you’re my husband, just sit there and listen” oh things are coming together now “ok, I won’t” she’s just letting loose now “so when you and Herb, junior went away, she admitted to it, it was in Barbados, her ex. Mind you her ex is married, happily too. I said how and what? She goes it happened, then she said I have feelings for him now, Herb isn’t hitting it, I said because you’re busy hitting him! You’re the one doing all this, Herb is a good guy that is letting your daughter call dad what are you doing, so now she’s like lashing out on others because of her own shit. I’m mad at her coming at you, then dragging Herb into it, he came here and was upset she was sad then she said you to blame, and I’m like Mel? She didn’t back down and then he came at you, I’m so fucking mad with her and she knows, then she said I feel bad, fucking dumb bitch” oh this is something “man” Robyn is just talking now “she’s in her fuck up my life era, she’s so confused and yet she has a daughter, she needs to think but whatever, I’m not saying what she did is right, in regards to you because she’s deadass wrong for it, I’m so annoyed” she’s cheated on Herb, that is all I can think of.

This is some shit though, I’m in the beach club thinking how Mel is mad at me because she cheated on Herb, how is that even my fault and Herb, he is a clown, I predicted that “you look so handsome in this” Robyn said as she sat on my lap and placed her arm around my shoulder “you want some?” Shaking my head “it’s funny how your brother is here now huh, I can’t believe he made that shit up and told you that” Robyn rolled her eyes “he’s so dumb, now he’s trying to be all up under her” looking over at Noella “I’ve lost Nik” she said, “I think he said he’s seen another girl down there” I pointed, Noella turned to look and he’s just talking to Tina “idiot” she swatted my hand “when you both coming to Barbados?” I shrugged “might need to get a new home there” looking at Robyn “really?” I said confused “your dad is there” letting an oh “that nigga” Noella snorted laughing “your dad a bad guy?” She asked “he isn’t the best guy; he has his favourite son and it ain’t me. On a real I was a momma’s boy but she ain’t a good person either. I feel like my dad gives this good person persona and he isn’t, but whatever” Noella laughed “parents huh” seeing some females make their way over, Noella turned around because I am looking. Oh there is males too “I am the owner hi, can we have a picture” looking at Robyn “that’s you” I said laughing “both of you please, it’s so nice to have you both here” Robyn got up from my lap, getting up from the seat “appreciate it homie” dapping him “I appreciate you” I laughed “you want to stand in the middle yeah?” I stepped to the side “thank you so much” standing at the side of him, there is a few people here now. Robyn can do this fan stuff; I am going to go back to drinking.

Passing the blunt to Robyn, she asked for weed and not she keeps coughing saying it’s strong “try it now” I laughed, she snatched the blunt from me, she does not like to be laughed at “aye!” Tina spat, shaking my head laughing, they would put this on “get up, come, come” Tina grabbed me, I didn’t really want to get up but it’s my song, Loyal is on so I got to show out. But people are gathering “Chris Brown, we got him here. Let’s give him some love” I feel shy now they dragged me up “thank you” I said placing my hand over my chest “When a rich nigga want you, and your nigga can do nothing for ya. Oh these hoes ain't loyal” I sang along, but I didn’t really need too because the crowd is doing it for me “Just got rich, took a broke nigga bitch. I can make a broke bitch rich. But what!?” I shouted “I don't fuck with broke bitches” they all shouted, I laughed clapping my hands “exactly” I can’t stop laughing now “Got a white girl with some fake titties. I took her to the Bay with me” putting my arm around what I thought was Noella, boy did I get it wrong, and it was just this random female, white, big titties too but I am just stuck with her. She got me stuck, she held my hand. Looking back at Robyn, she just glared at me, I shrugged “Tina!” I shouted; I feel set up here unless they did it because they are laughing but they eventually saved me “I love you so much” the lady said “thank you” Tina pulled me along through the crowd “dance with us” they just want a show, they on some shit today.

Walking back out of the bathroom with my blunt between my lips “hey” looking over seeing Nadia, moving my blunt back “you good? Is he harassing you now?” she laughed “a little, now he takes interest” turning to her “I knew that would happen, but keep to your guns, don’t let him pull you back in, he doesn’t deserve you at all. Beautiful lady like you” I grinned “thank you” I bowed my head, she came in for a hug so I hugged her “don’t mind the sweat, I am hot” I chuckled “it’s ok” moving back from the hug, let me go back to Robyn “hey baby” these ladies are coming out today “can we have a picture” nodding my head, Robyn is looking she looks so annoyed “hey, hey” I laughed, she just touching my chest “no, please” I said for her to not do that, practically humping me. I just wanted the picture taken; I think she is intoxicated too. I am uncomfortable with this “ok, thank you” moving her hands away from me, shuffling towards Robyn “leave my husband alone” Robyn said, placing my blunt between my lips and I just picked Robyn up because we are going. It’s a little too much without any bodyguards, I thought it was a private place.

We came back here and Robyn jumped in the pool, once again we are the ones awake. So I am just sat in the edge with my feet in the water “Robyn, don’t go too far out. You are still a little tipsy” I said but does she listen, no. I had to get down to my boxers and then jump in “come, save me poppa!” she shouted, swimming over to Robyn laughing “you’re annoying” she clapped her hands, wrapping my arms around her body and pressing a kiss to her lips “mhmmm” moving my head back, resting my forehead against hers “I love you so much” I grinned “so much so you would choose me” she nodded her head “always” wrapping her arms around my neck “pool sex?” my eyes widened “ok we are freaky but there is people still here, your brother” she shrugged “close his eyes then” I chuckled “come on lover, swim us into the corner and let’s make wet love” I chuckled, she wrapped her legs around my torso, this woman is making me do all the work as I swam to the corner of the pool “I am going to trap you into the corner” I smiled “I love this, it’s romantic” clearing my throat “I suppose, are you still snorting Plan B lines?” she giggled “I am, even placing pills into my pussy, no baby for me. Ovaries is closed” she is crazy.

Once I backed Robyn into the corner I immediately slammed my lips on hers, my hands are in her wet hair. I licked her bottom lip, so she opened her mouth and my tongued entered her mouth. She attacked my lips and forced her tongue in my mouth roughly “damn Robyn” I mumbled between kisses. I breathed, grinding my hips against her. I did it over and over “you can’t be loud, don’t be loud. It’s bad” Robyn does not care, she is going to let Mexico know she is having sex “shut up” she pecked my lips as I continued to grind my hips and my member grew harder “how about you turn around” Robyn let out an oh “mhmmm” she unwrapped her legs from around me and turned around slowly, gripping the edge of the pool. Taking my boxers off, wrapping my arm around her “no, I want to see you fuck me” Robyn turned around and wrapped her legs around me before she could say anything more I just entered her “ah” she let out instead when I filled her “be nice” she said, I am always nice as I slowly stroked in and out of her. This is actually nice, I like it “I think I like public sex” raising an eyebrow “you want to start a porn channel” she shook her head “no, just want you to be inside of me forever, oh yeah” she moaned out “Papi!” she shouted, I shushed her looking around us, she is bad.

“Hey, idiots!” my head tossing to the side and then squinted my eyes open “you both slept out here” the first thing I looked at was myself, we have a blanket on us, thank you god. Robyn is still asleep “uh yeah” I breathed, Noella laughed “we all awake and then you two just asleep, wake up” nodding my head “thanks” I said, looking down under the covers “Robyn, hey” she is naked under this “Noella, hold on” my voice is fucked up “I need a favour” I said “your boxers” squinting my eyes “huh” she pointed “oh shit” I am naked too, we slept naked “where did this blanket come from” I am confused “yourselves, erm, y’all a mess. I am not even asking” how are we going to get up “I won’t be picking your boxers, but I can sure get something for Robyn” nodding my head “please” Robyn is moving at least “what time is it?” she asked “time we got up, what the hell, we naked” I said to her, she looked up at my face “then how are we covered” I would like to know that “oh yeah, I bought the blanket, we said we would look at stars” I don’t remember that, maybe that did happen “everyone is awake, we need to get up. Noella is getting you a top” Robyn laughed “I had the best time ever Chris, I don’t care” I cooed out “same, we crazy as shit” pressing a kiss to the top of Robyn’ head as she rested her head on my chest again “I miss my dad Chris” that really came out of nowhere.

RWBY V7 Episode 12 Photo Review (Spoilers)

..................WUT

I mean….I can’t really process what happened

 So let’s get this part out of the way:

The Good: 

Penny and Winter are the true BFFs

Penny becoming more human is endearing to see, and it’s been interesting to see her struggle with understanding emotions against Winter, who also struggles to understand them, in a way. Penny challenging Winter but never abandoning her to join RWBY is nice, and their light conflict is very well done because it shows Penny’s growing humanity struggle against Winter’s much chillier perspective.  I really like the dynamic between these two and hope they continue on in the next volume (If Winter dies too this volume I’ll ragequit RWBY), and to be honest it’s become more of a cute bond than Ruby and Penny this volume. Don’t @ me 

The fights

Although a lot of the “fights” in this volume were done off screen, when there is fighting this volume it has been extremely good. The camera moves around a lot less so we get a better sense of what is going on, and the moves feel more deliberate to whoever is doing the fighting, such as Ruby and Harriet who dart around a lot, delivering only occasional blows (and Ruby taking more of the blows because she’s not as good as Harriet in hand-to-hand), while Yang and Elm go all-out lady brawl (and it’s nice to see Yang’s semblance again)

Exception: Weiss. 

Weiss’ over-reliance on Summoning is making her boring to watch in fights. Seeing the 300 different ways the animators show her spinning around and waving her sword like a magic wand is getting OLD. If you’re going to have her summon all the time, fine, but stop focusing the camera on her. Just show her very distantly in the background waving her sword/wand and focus on how people fight whatever she summons.

 The meh:

RWBY vs Ace Ops- welp… I didn’t think the Ace Ops were gonna lose, I thought RWBY would flee and barely get away because the Ace Ops were supposed to be the best of the best. I guess I’m glad they didn’t just go down like total chumps (except Vine- sorry dude), but apparently if you train with the Ace Ops for 6 weeks, you’re as good as them. *Shrug* Who knew? It’s like Fitness Bootcamp- Train with a soldier on an obstacle course once and you’re basically ready to become a member of Seal Team 6, right?

 I wish they would have explained this a little more- maybe looping back to the discussion they had in Episode 4 about being friends vs teammates. Maybe RWBY’s personal bond gives them more incentive to win, while the Ace Ops are just going through the motions because it’s just a job to them. Plus I think Elm and Marrow’s inner conflict also maybe helped tipped the sales towards RWBY, perhaps they weren’t trying their hardest, but I wish this was a little more clear

 JNPR vs Neo

It’s kind of weird that Neo didn’t incapacitate Oscar, if she was planning to try trapping JNR as well… Or maybe Oscar barely managed to get away? Regardless, Neo had the lamp, so why stick around and wait for more people to show up? The plan was for her to get the lamp FROM Oscar, not necessarily grab Oscar as well. Maybe Neo has her own agenda, which would be cool, but from this episode it looks like she completed her objective but then waited around to fight some more. Maybe getting the lamp was too easy and she likes a challenge...? Who knows (I am saying that a lot for this episode, huh?)

 Cinder vs Winter and Penny

This is obviously meh because not much happened, and it’s just set up for the big final fight. With the Ace Ops incap’ed, hopefully RWBY can come in as well to finally fight Cinder directly after dancing around her in V5. I think most of this will go down probably in the Relic room because a grand fight in a cramped hospital room is hard, so I think Cinder will be able to Grimm-snatch the Winter Maiden powers and go down to the relic room, or she will incapacitate whoever does get the powers and drag them there, only to be stopped by RWBY for a big battle. However I don’t think it’ll be Winter Schnee getting the powers since it’ll take too long for the transfer device and they are out of time. I KINDA think now it might be Penny- a girl with an aura/soul- somehow she’ll receive them and it’ll be part of her becoming a real girl (like Pinocchio).  Who knows? At this point who gets them is totally up in the air.

  The Ugly:

 I guess I was right about Tyrian escaping custody again, but it wasn’t because of Salem intervening with Grimm like I thought. It was because Robyn is a terrible person!

Robyn- Please kindly f- off:

 I officially HATE Robyn the most. After teetering on a “meh-leaning-towards-general-dislike” feeling, I loathe her now and I hope she gets killed off quickly. She’s a one-dimensional generic hothead character with no personality that is purposely stuck in to create conflict. She is the good guy’s Tyrian- but Tyrian has a reason to be chaotic: He’s an insane zealot. Robyn is just a poorly written idiot. 

Robyn just does stupid things that get in everyone’s way all of the time, and actively works to undermine the hero’s at each turn. She prevented the launch of Amity by stealing all the supplies, and now she is going to try and fight in the middle of a cramped ship, risking Tyrian’s escape rather than waiting 5 minutes to duke it out with Clover once Tyrian is safely in jail. The entire time they were squaring off on the ship I kept thinking “Uhm Tyrian’s right there….Tyrian is RIGHT THERE! He’s gonna get out!” Robyn is a liar. She doesn’t care about the people of Mantle, because she’s doing things that could (and did) lead to a serial killer who killed Mantle Citizens escaping.

Not to mention she could have taken Qrow’s advice and talk to Ironwood first! Literally 2 episodes ago you were saying the General had your support and now you’re like “I’LL FIGHT ANYONE, ANYWHERE. Forget talking to people to get the full details and actually following through upon that trust I claimed I had in Ironwood two episodes ago, I’m gonna risk everyone’s lives to fight this out RIGHT here!” She’s the worst! 

  Confrontation with Qrow and Clover- 

This falls under the Ugly because, despite some good dialogue between Clover and Qrow, with Qrow expressing that he feels manipulated while Clover tries to explain his own point of view, every decision made from here on Qrow’s part is inexcusable and totally irrational. 

Tyrian joins the fray and inexplicably Qrow agrees to team up with him to take down Clover because THAT can’t possibly fail spectacularly. 

Tyrian suggests “putting the kid to bed” but the entire time I knew Tyrian would betray Qrow and go too far with attacking Clover because OF COURSE HE WOULD. But I thought he would sting Clover as a chance to get away, because Qrow would have to focus on getting Clover help. However, what we got was…much, much worse. 

Qrow’s questionable decision making

Hey DUMMY- Why not team up with Clover first to neutralize Tyrian again, and then you and Clover can duke it out. Or you and Clover can go talk to James like you wanted to 10 minutes ago!

Oh right…because “You got a score to settle” with Tyrian because this is now a cheesy western where your ego is more important than logic.

I think his bad luck semblance is really just an idiot semblance- like occasionally his semblance makes him do stupid things, leading to horrible outcomes but he mistakenly chalks it up to “bad luck.” It’s also frustrating because this volume they were setting Qrow up to grow into a good character- someone with a lot of anger from the past who learns to cope with it, and learns to accept friendship from others. I guess that’s all over. 

So, sadly, Tyrian then murders Clover. It was shocking I will say that...I actually GASPED, and it led to this really cool shot: 

But the shock was partly for the wrong reason. Like I said before, I thought Qrow being a dumb-dumb would lead to Clover being injured, sure, but KILLED? Yikes! Qrow’s idiocy leading to Clover being injured would be frustrating, but not unforgivable narratively and he could learn from it. He would learn to not treat his friends as transactional, and automatically write them off when one hint of struggle happens. Qrow’s idiocy in teaming up with a serial killer and getting Clover killed kinda makes Qrow unforgivable in my book. Does CRWBY want me to hate Qrow? I guess so, especially because Clover’s dying scene didn’t exactly stick the landing and alleviate my anger towards Qrow either.... 

So poor dying Clover is lying there, and a visibly shaken Qrow kneels next to him. So the thought is Qrow is going to realize his horrible mistake, and dive down a pool of self-loathing: tearfully blaming himself, blaming his bad luck,  APOLOGIZING, upset about how it’s all his fault, etc. Instead, he delivers (with a straight face) the weirdest line ever about James taking the fall. UHHH- WUT? You teaming up with Tyrian led to this. WHAT IS HAPPENING?!

  This sucks. On several levels. Clover’s death was just plain poorly done and a good character was wasted. I really liked Clover. I thought Qrow was going to actually get a break from being shit on this entire series and finally get, at a minimum, a friend that would continue to help him grow and develop as a character, pushing Qrow to see the best in himself and stop continually hating himself. With that cut short, I of course felt super sad and emotional about Clover’s death, even to the point of almost crying.

However, I can’t pretend like a significant part of that isn’t pure frustration anger about how this episode played out. Not only did Clover’s death came about in the dumbest way, but his final words with Qrow were wasted by the weird “James will take the fall” bit. 

Qrow should have blamed himself and his semblance (I mean...it actually kinda is his fault, not gonna lie), and Clover could have maybe been the ultimate friend to him, telling Qrow that it happened because Qrow was fighting for what he thought was right, and even though the outcome was horrible he shouldn’t stop fighting for what he believes in…? I dunno….ANYTHING other than “GRRR James will pay”

 I can’t help but remember a mere few minutes ago.....

This episode.....woof. 

 In a long series, you want your hero’s to sometimes lose just to keep it interesting, and to give them something to have to crawl back from. However, what’s interesting is seeing the characters try their best, make reasonable and decent decisions and still suffer a loss, because it makes us want to continue to cheer them on and watch as they make a triumphant comeback. Seeing hero’s simply choke and fail because they make the dumbest, irrational decisions with no logical reason is just frustrating and excruciating to watch, and seeing those moments lead to other characters suffering makes your “hero’s” unlikable. 

This argument was made for the V6 climax- that RWBY made a dumb decision and others suffered the consequences, making them “evil” to some hateboner watchers, but I thought this assessment was over dramatic. You have to take things in context, and literally nothing came of RWBY’s decision to steal an airship: the universe was the same as it was before with some filler in the middle. No one was injured or killed, and even the damage to the city was minimal (one roof). Clover, though, is full-on dead and that is entirely Qrow’s fault. I just can’t believe the writers put this down on paper, re-read it, and though- “yea....Someone who totally make the decision to team up with a murderer to subdue their good friend....this is gonna be GREAT.”

But who cares about the story- NEW MERCH DROPPING SOON AMIRITE?! 

Ok that was a low blow, but the writing and characters inexplicably took a logical nose dive this episode, after having a lot of thought put into last episode. The characters (especially Qrow, but also Robyn and to a lesser extent Clover) could have made some reasonable and logical decisions and Clover still could have died, which would have had way more impact and made the situation seem way more hopeless. Instead we got Robyn kicking off the shitshow by being just the worst, and Qrow taking the shitshow torch and cranking it up to 11, effectively un-doing all of the development we’ve seen from him this season. 

Lastly, even if you are going to have the characters completely fail at making decisions and it leads to a horrible outcome, at least stick the landing and don’t have them go off on some odd tangent about how this is someone else’s fault. *facepalm* 

Overall I’d give this episode a very generous 2/10.

The 2 points is because of the decent fight animation and occasionally decent dialogue.

I’m tired...

29. Part 3

“What the fuck” I said to myself, I literally facetimed him last night what the fuck is he doing. I don’t even have Ally’ number either “my god!” tapping on Shawn’ name, he would have her number because she works for him well whatever she does for him, I hope he picks up. Hearing Robyn crying down the phone, that shit is really upsetting to hear, I don’t get what happened between them two but to be doing this is too much, he done gave my niece away “hiya Nalah, different to see you calling me?” Shawn said “I know, but I need Ally’ number. Send it me now, I don’t have time to speak just please. I will fill you in after” if he is planning on jumping on a jet here which is bullshit, he is not coming here so what is he doing “oh, what has he done?” Shawn knows damn well his friend is a whole ass dummy “I will tell you after, just send the number please, ok?” I don’t want him to hound him too, I need to hound him first “I will, you better tell me after too why” I didn’t even mention names, he knew it is about Maurice “I will do bye” disconnecting the call, Robyn is already calling me back. She didn’t even give me two minutes, answering the call “one minute please” I said to the manager, I have a damn meeting myself “erm, I am trying to contact his assistant. I don’t have his number, what the hell happened? Why?” who in the right mind does that, I say right mind and then it’s Maurice “we had a disagreement, yeah. We fell out over something that could be fixed, yes I said things to him and then he pulled out this paper it says” he can’t do that, he fucking can’t do that “it says I Maurice Davenport give up any rights to Reign-Texas Davenport, I give up any right to her life, to any money she will receive in case of my death. I also give up my rights to not interfere in her life if she was to leave said state, and also if she was to change name, he signed it. I was in shock and he walked off” I sighed out closing my eyes “what triggered him, Robyn. I spoke to him last night, he didn’t mention a word” hearing my phone ping “I will call you back, just wait” disconnecting the call.

He’s taking so long inside, he said he would be a minute but it’s been half hour now and I have been sat here. He said he was going inside for some things, his home here is nice though “his flight should be leaving in ten minutes” his driver said “I know, we will have to pay late charges” looking around the home from inside the car, maybe I should go and see to him. My work phone started to ring, looking down at the ID and that is an unknown number to me, answering the call “Hello” I am not sure who it is so I don’t know how to answer “my brother, where is he?” letting out an oh “Nalah” I said, with the tone of her voice she knows or someone has said something “yes it’s me, where is he? And why the hell did you let it happen?” oh she knows “I am his assistant not his carer, I can only give him what he wants. I can’t change what he wants Nalah, he did it” what does she want me to do “right, where the fuck is he? Right now? Why is he coming Dubai?” I am not about to get fired “he’s not, he’s going Mexico. He is dragging me along, he keeps saying Dubai because he’s going there after, look I am not involved in this” I hate when this family assume I can control him “Ally, he has given my niece away! Robyn is crying, where is he!? Right now?” he told me not to tell anyone, he is my boss not them “uhm, he is in Cali still” I am not lying with that “get him on the phone right now” I wish I could “I will get him on the phone, if I can find him” Nalah groaned out “listen to me now! You fucking find him now, I will wait on the phone” I didn’t want to go inside at all “well if you can wait” opening the car door.

Least the home door is open, stepping inside the home. The grande staircase is beautiful here “uhm Maurice!?” I half shouted, seeing a duffle bag on the floor in the lobby. I yelped out as another one fell near me “put them in the SUV!” he shouted, looking down at my phone as I muted my speaker “Maurice, what are you doing exactly?” walking up the steps “we need to go?” jogging up the steps as he ran off “Maurice, seriously. We need to go” he is in the end room, why is he doing this now when the fucking jet is waiting for us to go “I just need to get some of my stuff” he said, this must be their room “come in here, come!” Maurice spat, I slowly walked into the room “here” I gasped as Maurice came out of nowhere, he held out a glass to me. Taking the glass from him, he raised his glass and seeing where he raised the glass too and what he is looking at. I turned around looking up at the picture of Maurice and Reign “Maurice….” I dragged out “she’s beautiful, I know a lot has happened, I think you need to take it back” I really think he does “to the future surgeon, drink up Ally” looking behind me “stop blanking the topic” Maurice downed the contents “she was born on this floor, it’s ok the carpets were changed. Ok so, yes. The jet is it ready?” I don’t want to drink this “yes it is but your sister wants you” looking down at my phone Nalah is still connected, un-muting her. Maurice tapped the red button, looking up at him “take my bags into the car, tell her to keep out of it. And you too” I can’t even do much, my phone started ringing again. Walking off and out of the room, walking down the hallway and answering the call “he’s in the house he shared with Robyn” I said to her “we are going now, he’s running like he does. He’s going Mexico and I don’t know what for, I feel like redirecting his jet” walking down the steps “you are right, do it. You get that jet to Texas, Shawn will be there. Do it, don’t let him run off and you stay with him” I was only thinking out loud.

I am scared, I mean I am nervous about this. I have redirected his jet to Texas and he doesn’t even know it, he’s just laying down without a care in the world. If the flight assistant says a word I might have to fake myself fainting because I don’t want to deal with that, Shawn text me and he’s angry at me, what the fuck can I do. I should have rejected this stupid offer, he wants Maurice’ new number but he told me to not give it out at all. He called me like six in the morning and he dragged me to the hotel and showed me it, I was expecting it to say he is taking her to court to want the child. I mean imagine giving your rights over, I get why but I can see he does love her a lot, I hate seeing him this way. Dragging my eyes up and away from my laptop, Maurice is just laying down staring at the roof of the jet, he is so sad. This is so sad on his side, this was supposed to be a good time for him. He sniffled rubbing his nose and I quickly looked away, I hate this whole situation because they are going to come at him for it, I hate to say it but Robyn can fix this and nobody else can.

The pilot announced we are landing and I want to hide, like I need to start to try and fake myself fainting already “landing!” Maurice spat, I did a nervous laugh “oh dear, they got it wrong” Maurice glared at me and shot up from the bed, he made his way to me and then looked out of the window “you set this up! Cut that shit, this was supposed to Mexico, redirect it back to Mexico!” Maurice walked off “sir we can’t, we are landing now, please sit down. We can set back off again and get the jet in position. We can do that” oh this is about to go down, I am so fucked. Maurice sat across from me “you know what my family is like, you told? Why? Why Ally! I trusted you!” he punched the table between us both “because I care, Maurice I do. You have a daughter and you are trying to cover that up, it doesn’t work because at night alone, you will be thinking what that little girl is doing, Robyn is crying. Nalah told me, I think you need to stop it. And now you’re running” he is very angry, maybe I don’t need to fake anything.

They jet has landed, Maurice hasn’t got up and the door has opened. I didn’t know what to do, I think he is making a big mistake but I feel I have got him in trouble “I am sorry” I said to him “hi sir” I can’t see behind me either but Maurice hasn’t lifted his head up either, looking to the side of me and it’s Shawn “Maurice, what are you doing bro?” Shawn stood staring down at him, Maurice looked up at him “what did you do?” Shawn said in a whisper, staring at Maurice as he chewed on his bottom lip and his eyes never leaving Shawn’ “why?” I started to well up, I quickly wiped my eyes before anyone saw. He can’t contain his cry, he is struggling to do it. He choked out and placed his hands over his face, Shawn looked up and sighed out “what did you do Maurice, why did you do that?” placing my hand over my mouth seeing him really crying “come on, it’s ok” Shawn touched his back “where are you going actually?” Shawn asked “he wanted to go Mexico” I said, I can’t believe I am crying “you did good, I am glad you bought him here” Maurice got up from the seat “where are you going?” Shawn asked him but he walked down the jet aisle “did he really do that?” Shawn asked “yes, I saw the letter he did it. Signed, I kept questioning him. Before we got there, he was saying that he was fed up of her assuming that his family would take his daughter, and that he felt she would be in the middle of things. He woke me, dragged me to Cali. I am off for Christmas Shawn, but then I just felt I needed to stay once he was doing that. He got new numbers and set it out for us to go Mexico or if not he would go alone and I didn’t want that for him either. I have told nobody, just Nalah when she asked” I explained myself “yeah, she told me to meet you both here, she said Robyn called her crying that he left and gave that letter. She said she has been harsh with him but like, he’s hard headed too. For him to do that, he gave his child away. His dad, will kill him. I will tell him if needs be, he is stupid. Marquis will slap sense into him, no matter. You don’t do-” Shawn drifted off “hey, where you going?” Shawn moved back and got in his way “see my dad, I am here aren’t I?” Maurice is so much taller than Shawn, feel for him “come on, you lost your daughter in this. How do you feel? Come on” Shawn hugged Maurice “who asks how you feel? I do, it’s me” Maurice hugged him back, my heart aches for him.

We really shouldn’t be on this jet because Maurice is being charged for it to be waiting here “so you really did that? Gave your rights away to your daughter, like forget anything. I hear what you saying Maurice, Robyn is being foul. I get you Maurice, I do but that is your daughter. You know what you done? Do you not understand what you done here? That little girl done nothing, you parents are dumb, you both don’t deserve her. Nigga you gave away your daughter, and don’t get me wrong I get it. Marquis is foul, if he hears you are not with Robyn and you have this thing that you see Reign now and then, he will take her. I am shocked you done that, like very shocked. Nalah told me and I said is he on drugs again. You are prancing around and it’s Christmas day tomorrow. Come on, you stay with my family” Shawn said, I mean maybe he can speak sense into him “y’all are funny, you think I have lost my mind. I haven’t it’s literally the truth, I get constant shit from my dad, he is watching everything, then I have the world watching me and judging me, then I got Hakim coming at me, Naomi wanting to sue my ass and using this can’t have baby shit against me and then Robyn is also being spiteful, she hates me, then her dad. I have been respectful towards him, I ain’t knocked his ass out yet, they all stood there while he held Reign and kept her away from me, fuck that. I went there to see and I saw, I left. I am actually helping her, you don’t see it. You know how messy this is, we are all upset right now but you all will see it” Shawn shook his head at him “you saying this, imagine if Robyn switches and puts this out there that you ditched your child” Maurice shrugged “she is too scared too, she knows the family will come at her. I mean she might as well everyone else is. Now I get why my dad paid people to get rid of them, why he doesn’t show feelings. He crushes people because it’s bullshit Shawn, don’t feel” he is really hurt by Robyn “you don’t want to be your dad but he left Adam, he is the rightful heir, you ain’t remember that” Maurice laughed “I am his son, just like she said. I don’t want to hear it, I don’t care. It’s done, it’s over. I have other battles to go for, she didn’t need to be one but she is and she wanted that” Shawn sighed out, he looks like he has given up on him.

I feel so helpless here in Dubai, I am so busy but I want to go back to Texas. I am just glad the jet landed there, but that is the last I have heard. Maurice hangs with my dad too much at times, he gets dumb ideas with this dumb ass self. I am so fucking angry at him “Miss Davenport, we need Mr Davenport to sign this off” the operation manager passed me the paper work “well right now, he’s not around. I can get my dad to do it, we need this to go perfectly. Have you got the designated room for Jay Z? His requests are on the email, also the Saudi prince details are on there, we don’t have much time. Is all the staff trained? Reception finished off?” I know that shit ain’t done “right away” he ran off as he would, they do half a job if you ain’t here watching them. My phone started ringing in my hand, checking the ID and it’s Robyn, she has been ringing constantly. Answering the call “hello” continue to walk the lobby floor, this hotel is so fucking beautiful, I am super proud of him “where is he? What is he doing? Did you contact him?” that is three questions I would like to know myself “I haven’t spoken to him, as far as I know he is in Texas with Shawn. That is the best I can do, I am in Dubai, I wish was there. I mean I don’t care what Maurice wants, I want to see my niece. He was actually at the home in Cali, he was there for an hour, I don’t know what he was doing there. I will call Shawn and let you know after” Shawn ignored my call earlier “I threw it away, I don’t want that paper work. If I didn’t want him to see her I would have said it to him, it’s not her fault, this is mine and his argument” I feel like I am not getting the full information on this, my brother doesn’t just jump unless he is pushed.

Tapping the top floor, I want to check they are perfect. The most important people will be up here “oh you pick up now” I said on the speakerphone “I been busy, your brother is with me anyways. Ally is going back home, he stands by his decision. Don’t you” taking the speakerphone off “Maurice, let me speak to him” I rather speak to him “Nalah wants you” hearing Shawn say “could be about the hotel, maybe not you won’t know until you answer” I am not going to attack him about it “hey” Maurice said “I just wanted to say uhm, you still want me to keep the family suite for you like you requested. Do you still want Reign to be with you to see your first hotel opening, I mean she won’t remember but she will see in pictures. You wanted that, you wanted to be holding her with you. You said the grand opening was also you showing her to the world that this is your daughter. So you want me to cancel that?” I am only repeating his words “looks, Maurice. Hear me out. Robyn said the paper work is gone, she don’t want it. What if I come back, and I meet you at the house and we can both see Reign on her first Christmas? Both of us together, like you can’t change shit nigga. That is your seed, I am willing to fly on that long ass flight to do this for you. Robyn don’t mind it, it will be me, you and Reign. I know you will want to see her. Your sister will make that happen for you ok?” I will make that happen, he has done so much for me. Even allowed me to be in the business “you just come to the house, I will be there Maurice. You don’t want that, you just need to be allowed to have a say in her life yeah?” I just need him to say yes “I’ll be there” I will have to leave now to get back there “we family, we got this” now I will need to talk Robyn into letting me take her, I haven’t even asked permissions for that.

Round of applause for the world’s second most famous clown Ammika. Idc if she’s really broke on her ass which I’m sure she’s not. She not about to be living and eating on the Fenty-Brown’s dime. I’m glad Robyn is documenting this cause this’ll be great as evidence against ammika such a dummy trying to use your child ass a pawn but it’s going to back fire big time. I know Robyn will end up loving Aeko he is not his pathetic ass mother. Aeko will be more stunned than Roro was lmao

Chile.... not on Fenty-Brown dime she won’t be doing anything like that. That bird isn’t broke at all, she just wants to live off Chris. Aeko needs love 😭😭😭

NPR’s “150 Greatest Albums Made By Women”

“This list, of the greatest albums made by women between 1964 and the present, is an intervention, a remedy, a correction of the historical record and hopefully the start of a new conversation.

150 Greatest Albums Made by Women

This list was created by NPR Music which posted it with fascinating essays on each artist which can be found here: http://www.npr.org/2017/07/20/538386562/%E2%80%9D/2017/07/20/538387823/turning-the-tables-150-greatest-albums-made-by-women The criteria were albums by women or women-centered groups since 1964.

Robyn know Chris better then any one she know he talking all that shit but he is coming because she told him he going to be angry but he will be there 😂

Robyn does and she also knows that he will arrive too, Chris is spitting his dummy out over something so small but it’s big to him.

Once Joy told Maurice family Robyn had no prenup or restrictions it was on. They were not about to let a regular girl come in here like that when all those wives probably have prenups and rules. Joy is vile. She really handing Robbie over. Whenever that dumbass comes out of his hangover he’ll see the mess that was going on while he was partying. I feel so sorry for Robbie. Her first big event in their country and it ended like this. That dummy better get them back.

Exactly this! And even then she was playing in Robyn’ face saying they know about the prenup, no bitch you told them! She knows they are crazy for money, Maurice is taking money away from them and you think they are going to be happy about this? They will rather he have Reign and throw Robyn. She is not a mother in law at all, she has really made sure they get her ass. It’s ended badly because Maurice is a whole dummy and was too busy having fun. Honestly, if Marquis old ass could have stayed longer then she would be secure.
