August 6th, 2023. 2139 hours. Comrie, Scotland.

Whiskey's splayed out on the bed. She snaps a picture that catches only her tired eyes, knit eyebrows and poofy brown hair in the darkness of the room, before typing some random caption and shooting it off to Meabh.

It was typical for them to text through Snap. It was the only social app Whiskey kept after she left home 5 years ago. Her phone was void of other apps other than food delivery, youtube, her e-mail and Snapchat.

At the top of the screen, a pop-up appears, announcing the arrival of a new e-mail on her inbox. A Facebook one, from an account she long abandoned, along with her abandoning all other social medias. And yet, the name 'Holly Willi-' cut off by the character limit had her raising a brow.

Tapping at the notification, her e-mail client opened with an automated e-mail from Facebook alerting her that Holly Williams had sent her a direct message. Now that's new.

Holly Williams... That was one of dad's cousins. From Grandpa Willie's side of the family, if her memory served her. She remembers family dinners and barbecues spent together, her big Irish-American family getting together for the 4th of July, and Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

She hasn't seen her 'Aunt Holly' (even though the woman was really her first cousin once removed) since before she went to university nearly 13 years ago. What could the woman want now?

Clicking on the link, she's taken to the Facebook client page on her browser and after trying, failing, and reseting the password of her account, she clicks the DM tab and opens the message:

Hi Vicky dear, it's your auntie Holly. Hope you're doing well. I heard about your papa, my condolences. I hope it's not a bother but I reached out to your mama to talk to your daddy about some military things and she sent me your way because she said you're in the navy. I see you haven't uploaded anything in a few years so this might not even reach you but I could use your help very urgently and I'm frankly desperate. If you see this, is there anyway you could call me at this number? It's very important!!! Thanks. Aunt Holly x

Her brow scrunches. Since when does Aunt Holly need to talk about the military? Isn't she a professor? Whiskey clicks on her profile and checks her job listing. Right, she's a History professor in NYU. So what's this? Is this for some research study of hers?

But then again, she said it herself that she's desperate... And the tone of her message isn't the most uplifting one... She sounds like she's really in need of her help... And Whiskey has never been good at being heartless. Sighing and scratching her head, Whiskey sits up in bed.

She copies the number from the DM and calls it, hearing the repeated beeping of the call attempting to connect as Simon comes up the stairs and into the bedroom, sweatpants close to falling off his hip and wrapped in a warm sweater.

He raises a brow at her as she's holding the phone to her ear, signaling vaguely to indicate it's an important call, so he takes a spot beside her, with an arm around her waist.

"Holly Williams." The older woman greets on the other side, her voice professional, like she was waiting for a work call.

"Hey, Aunt Holly, it's Victoria." Whiskey murmurs, her southern accent suddenly triggering full-force, like it hasn't in over three years.

August 10th, 2023. 1321 hours. Yonkers, New York.

"When you get there, please, you need to understand, she's... she's not herself."

Victoria climbed out of the Uber and popped open the trunk, pulling out her black suitcase, and thanking the driver with a nod and a wave before he drove off.

Then, she stood in front of the brownstone townhouse, eyeing it up and down, with inquisitive eyes, before taking a deep breath and climbing the front steps to the stoop.

"She hasn't been the same, not after Alex passed away."

The doorbell rings inside the house for a few moments, before the door opens and a pale face regards her from the other side, strawberry blonde curls disheveled, eyes heavy with dark circles.

"Hey, Rosie..." Victoria greets gently. The woman knew she was coming, Aunt Holly having warned her. "It's me, Victoria... Vicky, remember?" She asks in a soft tone, hoping she's not too far gone yet.

"Vicky..." Rosie says softly as she regards the slightly shorter brunette with wild, crazied eyes but eventually nods and unlocks the door all the way, letting Victoria inside.

"When you see her, please... be kind to her. She's really struggling..."

Victoria remembers the last time she saw Rosemary. Victoria had to have been 16. Rosie had just graduated from college, and it was the summer. At the time, she always dressed in bright colors, a hippy style, with Birkenstocks galore... She was very put together, healthy, pretty. They weren't the closest cousins in the world, but they spent time together during the holidays; Rosie taught Vicky how to do her hair to keep her curls healthy; they spoke about boys...

Before coming here, Victoria had even checked her cousin's Facebook page, finding an old album of photos from family gatherings that included the two of them, when they were much, much younger (and happier). It had been so long since they last saw each other... She needed a refresher on her cousin's appearance...

But now, as she's getting let into the house, she realizes Rosemary looks like shit. Somehow, worse than Victoria had expected when her mother had reached out and told her all about the state she is in. Paranoid, manic, depressive and reclusive, Aunt Holly worrying her only daughter was schizophrenic. Her hair looks greasy and matted, and she seems like she's lived in the same outfit for multiple days, maybe weeks. The house reeks. She reeks.

"Nobody can get her out of the house... And she's not taking care of herself..."

The house is dirty and messy, take out containers and paper bags of food delivery strewn about, the trashbag in the kitchen overflowing, the laundry basket in the laundry room too. Every picture frame in the house has blue, yellow, or pink post-its over it, the mirrors as well. Victoria follows her cousin across the house, each step she takes crushing some trash, or nearly tripping over a clothes pile. She's dangerously close to becoming a hoarder, it looks like...

Victoria has to force herself to take a few deep breaths through her mouth and not her nose, so that she doesn't get sick. She knows it would not be helpful in her cousin's state.

Rosie's able to push some trash off the couch to make space for the two of them to sit, though she keeps a large gap between herself and Victoria, probably ashamed of her smell, or appearance, or doubting that she can trust her...

"Every time I try to talk to her... It's like I'm talking to a crazy person... She's my daughter, I love her, but she needs help..."

"Your mom told me some of what's been going on." Victoria begins as she sets her hands on her lap and looks at Rosie with her best attempt at showing empathy and kindness.

"What'd she tell you? That I'm going crazy? I'm not, you know?" Rosie says defensively. "She thinks I'm losing it, and that I need to be committed, but I don't." She assures the brunette.

"Well, no, that's not what she said." Victoria lied. Yes, it had been 100% what Aunt Holly had said when they met up the day before, after she picked Victoria up at the airport, having bawled her eyes out behind the wheel.

"Then what did she say?" Rosie asks directly, her brows knitting together in anxious worry, her hands already trembling on her lap.

"To be honest," Victoria continues, choosing her words carefully, "I didn't understand most of it... I think it'd be best if I heard it from you. Can you tell me what's been going on?" She asked in earnest.

And tell her, Rosie did.

For the next three hours, Victoria heard her ramble and ramble, more and more and more.

About Alex, about his missions, about how Rosie always worried he'd die in the field, how they pronounced him dead in 2019 but she never got to see a body, only his dogtags, and his grave is empty... Victoria thought that was pretty normal, average even... it was the normal treatment for soldiers who died in ways that made it so their body couldn't be recovered... Like during an explosion.

But then Rosie went on and on about how she feels like she's being watched, stalked, surveilled, how she gets stopped by cops too much, and keeps seeing the same faces around the places she usually goes to like Target or Walmart, how there's a van parked outside 24/7, how she's sure that there's cameras and microphones around the house... And it was all being too much.

"She thinks she's being stalked, watched by the govenment, and like they're out to get her."

"Rosie... why would the government be doing such a thing?" Victoria asked her in earnest once she paused in her rants.

"You're not LISTENING!" Rosie complained, her body already having started to shake in distress as she retold everything to her cousin.

"No, no, I am listening. I'm just trying to understand." Victoria replied in an attempt to soothe her and gently took her hands in hers, which caused Rosie to tear up.

"It's NOT the government, it's the CIA!" The blonde shrieked and sniffled, trembling beside Victoria. "Alex was an agent... he..." She trailed off and shook her head. "Nobody tells me anything, I tried calling, nobody tells me!"

Victoria sighed and carefully scooted closer, taking a breath and daring to wrap an arm around Rosemary's form, in the gentlest of ways. "That tends to happen a lot, you know? They... well... when a soldier dies a gruesome death. They close the cases and put high clearances in place so that it doesn't shock the family." The brunette said.

"She's in complete denial, Vicky. She's living in her paranoia and delusion..."

"No!" Rosemary argued. "He's not dead, Vicky, he's not! Whatever... Whatever happened, they're covering it all up! They- he's not dead! They didn't even tell me how he died! Not even if it was heroic or anything!" She wailed as a hiccuping sob rattled her and shook her form against Victoria's side.

Victoria sighed and looked around the room. She was not equipped to deal with this. She half wished that Simon was here. He had dealt with people in altered states of mind, his brother, especially...

"You need to help me, Vicky... You're my only hope! You have to find out what happened. You know people, right? My mom said your mom said you're in the Special Forces! You know things?!" Rosie whined in a pitiful tone, her big blue eyes glued to Victoria's, and making her own hazel ones soften.

"I'll try, Rosie... But even I don't have that high of clearance..." Victoria replied in a soothing tone. "But I promise I'll try."

Victoria meant it. Her cousin might be mental and delusional, but, at least, Victoria could poke around a little bit and see if she could at least find what happened to the body...

"Where did you say he was sent to?" The soldier asked with a cocked brow, her hand gently rubbing Rosie's arm and shoulder in her best attempt at being comforting.

"In the Middle East... Urzikstan, I think..." Rosemary replied and looked up at Victoria. "You're going to look into it, right?" She pleaded.

Victoria nodded. "Of course I will." She replied and smiled at her, trying not to let the feeling of instant dread that was growing in the back of her mind from showing on her face.

Urzikstan... Price and Kyle were just there last year... Working alongside the militia there.

"Now... how about I help you give this place a tidying up... and you go take a shower, and try to relax, hm?" She offered.

Rosie's face began to flush a bit, with the sudden reminder that she had been neglecting herself and probably smelled so bad... And here was Victoria hugging her. "I probably should..." She trailed off and began pulling away from the other woman.

The brunette let her go and nodded. "Call me up when you're done, I'll help do your hair, how's that?" She offered and smiled kindly at Rosie.

Rosemary gulped and nodded. "Yeah..." She got up, beginning to shuffle out of the living room. She stopped by the door and turned back to look at her cousin. "Thank you for this... for everything..." She said gratefully.

Victoria shook her head. "Don't thank me. That's what *family*'s for, right?" She asked, though the word family, one she hadn't used in a while, left a bitter taste in her mouth. Rosie nodded and then disappeared back upstairs.

Once Victoria heard the bathroom door upstairs shutting with a loud thud, she bounced up off the couch.

Whiskey mode activated and she began looking around the room, pulling out her cellphone and turning on the flashlight to shine it off any hidden nook and cranny, like behind the TV, and inside the A/C vents.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Five fucking cameras, just in the living room and entryway alone. She doesn't want to imagine how many more are hidden throughout the house.

It seems that Rosie isn't as delusional and crazy as Aunt Holly thought...

Approaching the window, Whiskey pulls the blinds aside and pears out through the gap, pushing her back against the wall, looking up and down the street. She notices the white van parked a couple hundred feet away, advertising a dry-cleaning service. She knows immediately that that's where they operate from.

She almost wants to go over, with her pistol in hand, and scare them off. But she knows better than to fuck with the Agency... And, even more so, when she's not here as Whiskey, but as Victoria. As a civilian, with no armor, just a red halter top and jeans and boots, coming to visit her cousin.

Huffing, she shakes her head and closes the blinds again. "God damn it..." She murmurs, already feeling her own paranoia rising and her hackles rising. She's going to need to pull some strings to find out what in the hell went so wrong in Urzikstan 4 years ago that now an innocent civilian is being surveilled.

With another sigh, Victoria turns and looks around the room, noticing all the trash and, with a deep breath, she sets down her belongings on the cleared couch and enters the kitchen to seek out a pair of gloves and a trash bag.

This is going to be a long fucking day.

August 11th, 2021.

0209 hours.

Victoria lies sprawled on the bed next to Rosie, the two girls staring at the ceiling.

It had been hours upon hours of tidying up and cleaning, but the house was finally clean, the trash taken out, and Rosemary much less disheveled.

They lay together, side by side, holding each other's hands, more for Rosie's comfort, which Victoria has acquiesced to. Victoria has a handle of bourbon in her hand which both her and Rosie occasionally take sips from.

"So you got married...?" Rosie murmurs and rolls her head toward Victoria. She's groggy, a mix of the alcohol, a full belly, a warm shower, a couple of melatonin gummies and the whiskey.

"Mhm." Victoria replies as she glances at Rosemary. "I didn't expect you to still be with dick boy." She quips.

The comment is funnier than Rosemary expected it to be, probably because of the state she's in, but she starts cackling aloud, snorting delightfully at it.

"Oh my God, I forgot he damn near showed his dick to grandma Patty while coming out of the pool." Rosie groans and shakes her head. "God, Alex was so embarrassed, he never wanted to go back!"

"That's what he was embarrassed of? Not that stupid fuckin' pube-looking mustache of his?" Victoria's comments, absolutely roasting the man, the alcohol having loosened her lips. "Did he still have that when he left for Urzikstan?"

Rosie once again has lost her mind belly laughing at the scathing comments her cousin made about Alex. Oh, how she needed the laughter.

"Noooo! It filled out. He had a nice thick mustache by then..." She replies and shakes her head, a soft smile on her lips.

"Well, at least there's that. I guess he outgrew his bad fashion choices." Victoria comments before she leans her head up to take another gulp of the bourbon on her bottle.

"Oh no he didn't!" Rosemary complains and suddenly seems to get a burst of energy, leaning forward to look at Victoria right in the eye. "He has the American flag tattooed on him!"

It's Victoria's turn to laugh, nearly choking on the drink, and causing the sweet, smooth alcohol to slide down her chin as she laughs. "Fuck off, no he doesn't?!"

"He DOES!" Rosemary insists. "And a bald eagle too!!!" She adds, which causes them both to laugh more, cackling at the ridiculousness. "I'm serious! Looked the eagle in the eyes once while he was balls deep in me.... You've ever tried getting a dick out of a dry pussy?"

This causes both girls to giggle again, nearly rolling around on the bed, tears forming in their eyes.

"God, and you married that man? He's been a fucking dork for decades now, Rosie!" Victoria complains.

"In my defense, we were drunk and in Vegas, okay?"

"YOU GOT MARRIED IN VEGAS?!"

"You know what?!" Rosie protests and points at Victoria. "We're talking too much about my marriage. What about you?" She asks in an accusatory tone.

Victoria rolls her eyes. "Don't change the subject just because you can't admit you have bad taste."

"Oh shut it!" Rosie nudges her. "You're avoiding the topic too!"

"Am not!" Victoria retorts. "I'm also married to a dork. But, unlike you, I have taste."

"How much of a dork are we talkin'?"

"Has a half-sleeve that's just straight up war motifs. Atom bombs, skulls, bullets..." She trails off. "And he wears a skull mask when he's out shooting terrorists."

"He WEARS what?"

Victoria shakes her head. "Don't make me say it again." She scrunches her nose, mock cringing.

"And you want to talk shit about me marrying Alex? You married, what, an emo?" Rosie quips as she tosses herself back on the bed, laughing again.

Victoria joins her, covering her eyes with her arm and giggling away, properly so, for the first time in three years. "God, we have bad taste, don't we?" She murmurs.

"You think it runs in the family?" Rosie asks with a playful tone and giggles again.

But this time, however, Victoria doesn't laugh. Instead, her eyes squint in suspicion and she suddenly sits up in bed, looking off into the distance.

How much of a coincidence would that be? Her husband, who is legally dead, who faked his own death and operates under an alias...

And her cousin's husband... who Lord knows what happened to him... But the CIA has their eyes on her, even though he's dead, so there's no reason to...

What if it really is a cover-up? What if he's only legally dead, just like Simon?

"What?" The blonde beside her asks in a gentle tone, eyebrows knit together. "Vicky, what's wrong?" She prompts, worried.

"...Nothing." Victoria replies as she lays down again after a long moment of silence. "Just realized I have to call Simon and ask him something..." She replies dismissively.

for @lyralein - told you she'd get more than that.

and also @crashtestbunny , @superhero-landing , and @loveandplanet bc you love Whiskey and Ghost

Anon here that was in a reading slump and asking for books! Any book recs are appreciated- Kennedy family or otherwise. I love non fiction, YA and MG, romance, NA (new adult)contemporary, suspense and can do fantasy, so any and all suggestions are loved! And the Carolyn and JFK Jr. book is actually a book about the Kennedy women- it’s called Ask Not, and is written my Maureen Callahan, a Daily Mail columnist and someone who is not my cup of tea lol. She has written some vile columns about Meghan, Taylor, and generally just all women lol so I have low expectations her book would be unbiased.

Oh my god I'm so so sorry I'm replying so late! I absolutely love Emily Henry's books, I'm reading Funny Story right now but all her books are golden and even though they are considered romance I think they are more accurately described as Women's Fiction. I also enjoy Sally Rooney, she just has such amazing complex characters and demonstrates social issues in her books that point out how they infiltrate our lives in small ways. Seven Days In June by Tia Williams is a book I really loved but do check the content warnings because it's a bit dark.

As for the Kennedy recs, I'll just give the books I've read and the one that's on my TBR:

Kick by Paula Byrne

Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis: The Untold Story by Barbara Leaming

Mrs Kennedy and Me by Clint Hill

The Nine of Us by Jean Kennedy Smith

Robert Kennedy His Life by Evan Thomas (currently reading)

Rosemary: The Hidden Kennedy Daughter by Kate Clifford Larsen (on my TBR)

Ah! The Metaluna Mutant! This beloved Universal Monster stands proudly alongside the classics such as Frankenstein’s monster, Dracula, and even the Creature from the Black Lagoon, while the film in which it is featured is often overlooked as being included as a Universal Monster movie. Regardless, it’s time for the Grue Crew to revisit this cherished 50s Sci-Fi landmark entry, This Island Earth (1955).  In the film, Rex Reason and Faith Domergue unwillingly follow high-browed, white-hair-domed alien Jeff Morrow to his distant home planet where they finally, in the last few minutes, encounter the Metaluna Mutant face-to-face. Fun, sometimes goofy, always entertaining, the film delivers! During the episode, the Classic Era crew debunk a Hollywood myth about the film and uncover some key behind-the-scenes contributions from the film’s crew. 

At the time of this writing, a stray copy of This Island Earth might be found streaming from Dailymotion or YouTube. The film is currently available on disc as a Blu-ray from Shout! Factory.

Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror: The Classic Era records a new episode every two weeks. Up next in their very flexible schedule, as chosen by Jeff, is Isle of the Dead (1945), a Val Lewton RKO film with an Oscar-nominated director starring Boris Karloff! Beware the vorvolaka!

"Thanks for helping me move this, you can put it over there."

"No problem. Didn't have anything else I needed to be doing. Hey, is this you?"

"Hmm? Oh, yeah, that's me when I was...11? My mom just came from a performance and still had her outfit on. My dad and I had been repairing the ME system, so we were covered in certus quartz dust. That was a nice day, after we got cleaned up, we went to the park and watched the early schoolers do their fall plays. I really liked the pirate one, the kids couldn't keep their balance so their swordfight turned into a balancing competition. My sibling won and they made them the Pirate Monarch."

"Which one are they?"

"Em is the one with the wings, hence the advantage with balancing. They were eight at the time. The other adult is our ren, Ivaili. Ae married into the family when I was three, they had just had Em and their partner, a merling, died in a fishing accident."

"I can tell your father's an Enderian hybrid, what are the other two, they seem human but looks can be deceiving."

"My father is a Draconian-Beta hybrid, so he had telepathy and telekinesis. My mom was a witch hybrid and potions affected her differently. My ren, and this surprises many people, was a Shulk-Elytrian hybrid, but only inherited the environmental immunities. I got the telepathy, effect resistance, and cold immunity. Em got the wings, plant and water magic, and animal speech."

"Oh, are they the patch under Ianite's? The winged sea goat?"

"Yep, the gear is my dad, the palette is my mom, and the thyme and rosemary is my ren. They were the first ones to appear after I received it."

"I've never seen them around, well, I think I might've met Em, but I haven't seen your parents. Did they not take the immortality when you became a god?"

"My mom's religion teaches death to be a sacred cycle and trying to break it is looked down upon, so fae refused it. My other parents refused it since they didn't want to live without her. Em took it since they were afraid of me being without family. I think they might've also taken it so they could safely "experiment with pyrotechnics" as they would put it. Honestly, the number of walls I've had to repair is slightly impressive."

"Is that really something to be impressed by?"

"Is it normal to teach your four year old children how to hack and fight?"

"...Listen, X33N and Kara started it."

"...Sure. Anyway, Em is usually not around since they split their time with Ianite and Dianite since they are dedicated to him and not to her technically, but I don't think he really minds Ianite semi claiming them."

"Ah, I can see that. Seems like you have a nice family."

Twelve years later

I took that photo down a week after Tubbo went missing. Kara had managed to get Jordan out from the tree in the hopes he would go talk to someone. Ianite was visiting me, so he came over to my place and when he saw the photo he just...shut down. I talked to X33N later that day and Jordan had taken down all his family photos. Tubbo's room was locked and he refused to go near it. I can't imagine what Jordan must be feeling, it probably reminds him of his past too much.

Where could Tubbo have gone? Where could all of them gone? Not only can we not detect them but the gods that volunteered to go looking, Eret, Callahan, Foolish, we can't find them either. Who could overpower gods?

...I just hope they're all safe.

Second ending

Twelve years later

I took that photo down a week after Tubbo went missing. Kara had managed to get Jordan out from the tree in the hopes he would go talk to someone. Ianite was visiting me, so he came over to my place and when he saw the photo, he exploded. Enderians are known for being protective of their family, but dragon hybrids are especially protective. Even with his sunglasses, you could see the magic in his eyes and there was a constant stream of dragon's breath coming from his mouth. I talked to X33N later that day and Jordan had taken down all his family photos. He had been destroying things all around the house and they kept repairing his items only for him to destroy them again. I can't imagine what Jordan must be feeling, it probably reminds him of his past too much.

Whoever thought to take the families of gods must think pretty highly of themself. It's not easy to piss a god off, but taking their family will certainly lead to them coming after you, probably for your life. We've already sent some gods to look for the missing people, but we haven't received a response yet nor have we heard from the missing.

...I just hope they're all safe.

DSMP Tinkerbell  fairies

Water : Eret - Tina - Boomer

Light : Sapnap (Spark) - Niki - Tommy (Flash) - Skeppy (Glitter)

Frost : George - Technoblade

Scouts : Punz - MichaelMcchill - Puffy (<->  pirate) - Eryn

Dust Keepers : Drista - Callahan - XD (King of fairies)

Others: Slimecicle (troll) - Prime (Mother Dove) - A strange red egg (The Egg)

 - o - o -

XD is the King of faeries, but no one put him there. He just is.

Their Mother Dove is named “Prime”. Drista is clearly her favorite, giving her plenty pixie dust and great abilities (no one surpasses her ability except XD whom she still likes to trick with Tommy’s help).

Ranboo has two talents (animal and fast flying) because he was born from a siamese baby (two souls, one body).

Puffy lost all her previous memory, only remembering the wrecked pirate ship where she awoke : she is now a scout for Dream Land. She doesn’t seem to want to learn more.

George can’t see Dream, one of his two best friends, because the cold would damage Dream’s wings (cfr Ph1lza’s case). Sapnap is able to keep himself warm enough to visit the frost fairy once : George awaits impatiently the authorization to go to Dream Land’s Valley (as a frost fairy, he must prove he won’t kill any plants or animals with his power). For now, the two fairies communicates through letters that they sent as paper plane across the border.

Dream is a bragging fast-flying fairy. He is one of the few fairies able to get rid of lizards, growing used to this frightening species that keeps taking him for some yummy supper. His best friend is Sapnap, the first light fairy who asked himself “what happens when sunbeams concentrate on one point” and burned down the light-talented fairies camp’s down. He has now quite the, deserved, arsonist reputation.

Tommy, a newer light fairy, would like to have such a cool talent too. Sadly, his only consists on changing the lights he emits. His pet peeve is making himself so blinding no one can look at him (plenty annoying for the other fairies and a very efficient weapon). Despite his behaviour, he is actually a sweetheart.

Wilbur is a talented story-telling fairy, all coming to listen to him. But he is also really famous for the “Moon light” case, where he tried to study the moon stone, entrusted to Ph1lza, with… unconventional ways. No one knows what really happened there but the whole house was blown-up and Ghostbur was born, a blue immaterial clone of the story-telling fairy.

Ph1lza’s case : one of the oldest fairy (rumors say he can rivalize XD). He is one of the most revered tinker-talented fairy, having built masses of housing (and some fairies would even claim cities)  across the world. He came from a different colony, ruled by a Queen fairy he calls “Mumza”. Sadly, he broke one of his wings while exploring winter land. His other one was saved by a young lost frost fairy he took under his surviving wing. Since then he is grounded in Dream Land. He tries to replicate his broken wing but the bird ones he created, thanks to friendly crows (who love his tinkering), can only help him fly short distance.

The frost fairy who saved Ph1lza’s life an other wing is none other than Techno. His abilities are actually deadly, frosting things to the bone with a simple intent. He hates them, seeing as they sometimes burst out of him and hurt (already killed) all closes to him. Technoblade works hard to become a tinker-talented fairy, inspired and helped by his best friend Ph1l, despite knowing he won’t ever change his true nature : he wants to at least change his reputation.

Tubbo, one of the newer fairies, has a terrible burn across his body due to contact with sub-zero ice. He refuses to elaborate on the causes. He likes bees and met Ranboo through them, the newer fairy trying to learn about his double talent : he heavily despises Shroud, a giant spider who Tommy claimed as his new pet when it invaded his house. Tommy definitely didn’t adopt Shroud because Tubbo met Ranboo through their love for animals.

Another lover of dangerous animals is Hbomb, who once went to Earth and fell in love with cats. He created his own cat cafe just to present the beautiful creature to his fairy companions. He doesn’t have the success he hopes for but Hbomb is not the type to give up ! He then created an help desk of “catmaid”, going to help people across Dream Land.

FoolishG is the actual architect of Dream Land, getting by this position a privileged bond with XD (which he loooves /s). He is a master at visualizing builds and created a whole new species (little totems he calls the doozers) to help him. Sadly, XD, Hbomb’s catmaid services and BBH new cactus plantation all collaborate to make his life a nightmare.

BBH and Antfrost are great friends. So when BBH discovers a mysterious red egg under the earth, it’s him that he calls. The egg intrigues both fairies because it seems to be both a true egg and a plant : maybe more fairies will be able to tell them ? BBH contacts Hannah and Ponk, both plants (flowers and fruits) specialists. Antfrost goes to find Puffy, who explored far and wide, and Punz.

Punz is a great scout, but he could have been a great shop tenant. Any kind of precious object can grant you his help. He especially loves gold things.

Skeppy is actually the one who found the egg, but he was way less interested in it than Bad. Nowadays, he loves cave exploring, where he disappears for days, searching for garnets and rubies.

Ponk used to care for a lemon tree even bigger than the Prime tree : but after several fire that burned it to the ground, he couldn’t bear it anymore. He went far away, on the border of Dream Land, to care for his new plants. He also specializes in medicine and treatments.

Despite thorns being often associated with roses, Hannah keeps her hidden away. The only great conflict she had with anyone was when Boomer, in a fool incident, crushed her garden with his frog and ripped her house for the flower stem. With XD’s help, he tried to make it right again.

Boomer lives in a swamp and he is proud of it. He is the fastest water fairy as he rides on his pet frog’s back : he must still be careful not to be taken for an insect by the other frogs.

Quackity owns his very own theater, a magnificent place which seems made by a light fairy. He even engaged a troll, called Slimecicle, to o the heavy work. The two seemed to have form a great friendship. The sun is deadly to Slimecicle though and Quackity is really careful when mornings come. (Purpled, not so much)

Purpled can go really high, supporting the lack of air and the change of pressure. It is rumored he can go to space, giving him “the alien” nickname.

Every fairy knows that Schlatt would do anything for some raspberry juice, especially if it comes from Quackity’s reserve.

Fundy loves to play tricks on people using his inventions, but would rather not assume the consequences : that’s why he always does them while wearing a fox’s mask.  The poor Seapeekay had some trouble over that confusion, many thinking the trickster was the game commentator.

Eret has the best fashion sense of all the valley. She also made a shell castle by the river side, with a permanent rainbow surrounding it.

Niki is solar. She warms people that comes near her, both metaphorically and literally. Her passion for pastries made her house one of the most visited of the valley. She doesn’t fear the cold and has a great friendship with Techno, Ph1lza and Ranboo, who she often see.

Karl is a strange case : he loves to go to the human world and is fascinated by all he sees there. He spends so much time going from one world to the other he often loss count of the days that pass an the strain that it puts on his fairies friends, who don’t know if he died, disappeared or just went away. He also forgets people change. His bubbly personality and large circle of friends easily make up for it though. Karl isn’t afraid of human, and currently love talking with Mr Beast, a “youtuber” who loves to show Karl to his “viewers”. Mr Beast always have great trinkets and fun games for Karl.

Callahan is the one making sure every fairy gets his dose of pixie dust, counting and grinding Prime’s feathers. He seems rather shy with people he doesn’t know, but his friends are aware he is simply silent, not calm.

Connoreatspants is the most lazy fast-flying fairy around. He is also the fastest. People often find him when they least expect him.

Squidkid is the infamous loser of the Great Potato War, a conflict instigated by Technoblade. The frost fairy managed to get more potatoes than the poor garden fairy, inflicting him an ego blow that will follow him ‘till the end.

If Tommy was a Tinker Bell fairy his name would be Silly Tumble and you can't convince me otherwise

Fankidtober Day 4: Rosemary

Full Name: Rosemary Tachibana (Tachibana Touji - 橘花 藤) Family: Jasmine Tachibana & Cress Finley (Parents), Yuusuke Hasumi (Older Half-Brother), Cicely Callahan (Older Half-Sister), Sylvestre von Aue (Older Half-Brother), Lex & Thyme Tachibana (Triplet Brothers), Jacques von Aue (Younger Half-Brother), Linnea von Aue (Younger Half-Sister), Cilan & Clemont Finley (Uncles), Basile, Verbena & Cori Finley (Cousins), Chili Finley & Korrina Cadoret (Uncle & Aunt), Ginger Finley & Anise Cadoret (Cousins), May Kosugi-Lǚ (Cousin Once Removed), Levi, Evan & Ione Lǚ (Second Cousins), Max Lund (Cousin Once Removed), Trixie & Skyler Lund (Second Cousins), Molly Hale (Cousin Once Removed) Date of Birth: July 26, 3019 Age: 17 Hometown: Olivine, Johto Occupation: Pokémon Coordinator & Cryptid Enthusiast Starter Pokémon: Staryu --> Starmie Notes:

Rosemary has a bit of an obsession aliens and cryptids stemming from a supposed Close Encounter she had at the Glitter Lighthouse when she was young. She often drags her traveling companion, Carmen, into trying to hunt for mythical pokémon or aliens which she wants Carmen to try and study. (Carmen would rather write her Junior Researcher papers on actually proven to exist pokémon thank you.)

Due to their rare status and similarity to a certain cryptid, Rosemary has no less than three Dunsparce on her team, one of which is shiny. (She later gives one to Carmen, however.)

Rosemary’s brother, Thyme, has a strong interest in ghosts and the paranormal and the two of them often argue over whether ghosts or aliens/cryptids are ‘cooler’. The one place their interests overlap is a love of supposed ‘cursed’ or ‘mystery’ spots where many people tend to go missing. Though they have their own theories for why such places get their reputations!

Rosemary started her journey as a trainer, though eventually began entering contests instead as she enjoyed showing off the beauty and coolness of her pokémon.

Rosemary’s outfit color scheme was inspired by Jasmine’s EX color scheme in PokéMas. The blue and grey reminded me of Cress a bit so it felt fitting!

Gingerbread is one of my fave rarepairs/nevermet ships so super happy I got the chance to draw one of their kids finally.

The Dark Tower VI: Song of Susannah by Stephen King

STAVE: Commala-come-call We hail the One who made us all, Who made the men and made the maids, Who made the great and small. RESPONSE: Commala-come-call! He made the great and small! And yet how great the hand of fate That rules us one and all.

This penultimate installment of King's The Dark Tower series really should've been a novella, at the most. There's just so much fat that could've (should've) been trimmed, here. The entirety of the Roland and Eddie storyline works great, getting extremely meta and adding such an interesting, eerie philosophical, existential slant to this epic journey. I really loved all that stuff, and if it was the main thread, here, this would’ve been a significantly more enjoyable reading experience. However, the main storyline, that finds Susannah and Mia in a constant struggle in the hours leading to "the chap"'s birth, is so painfully over-bloated and all-around boring (save for a few small bits that add some depth to the overall story and that fantastic, nightmarish climax that felt reminiscent of Rosemary's Baby in all the right ways). As for the Jake and Callahan thread, all that really could've just been saved for the next book. All-in-all this is probably the worst of The Dark Tower books, so far. I still have some major issues with The Gunslinger, but this surpassed that in its amount of unnecessary pages and the level of boredom reached while reading. I really hope a lot of those Susannah/Mia pages are made worth it in the final installment.

6/10
