June 16 ZODIAC

They can't zero in on only a certain something and they generally make progress toward general training. They are strangely shrewd and delicate, with an incredible ability to adjust to individuals and everyday environments. They need to see, insight and learn everything. They can ably utilize the data gathered throughout everyday life. In any case, they ought to have the option to fulfill themselves. They are persistently at one point and afterward at another ... that is the reason they generally whine about "not having sufficient opportunity." They are uncertain individuals, with activities and cases that contrast from one another, double essentially, dependent upon consistent change. They show a specific triviality in their judgment of others. They are fairly melancholic in disposition, yet they are grasping individuals. Overall they show specific creative and strategic abilities. They are extremely gifted at copying and might want to establish the most ideal connection with everybody. Little bliss looks for them throughout everyday life. The lacking sort is mean, pompous, requests help and backing from his current circumstance. For an egomaniac like this, the main things are joy, fulfillment and solace. June 16 ZODIAC

How would Resident Evil 8 be in this case, from my perspective, that I make the story for RE8, here’s how the game is going to be.

How would I structure the story:

1. Like Resident Evil 6, the game features four separate campaigns that happen simultaneously with each other. The main protagonists would be Leon Scott Kennedy, Carlos Oliveira, Billy Coen and a newcomer to the franchise, Elijah Harper.

2. There would be a time where the protagonists wouldn’t be playable due to certain event to be played out, leading the side characters to change the role as the protagonists.

3. At some point, the stories of the main characters would end in the same location, some of the main characters, in this case, I suppose.

4. The characters will also have a different endings due to player’s choices, it would decide of what actually might become of them.

5. The game will be a hybrid person point of view, in other words, either 1st person or 3rd person view mode, that choice is the players to make. Not the structural 1st person view from resident evil 7, due to some complaints given to capcom and I myself too decided to address to this situation, like honestly, if some can’t play in 1st person view, Capcom has to listen and not ignore.

6. With no current plan whatsoever, Ethan Winters will not make an appearance for RE8, as he and Mia left off...

7. The side characters/secondary protagonists of the game would be:

1. Chris Redfield & Jill Valentine (Carlos Oliveira)

2. Helena Harper (Leon Scott Kennedy)

3. Rebecca Chambers (Billy Coen)

4. Sheva Alomar (Elijah Harper)

7. This game would mark the last appearance of Chris Redfield.

Campaign Summaries:

1. Leon’s campaign: 2 years has passed since the events of RE: Vendetta, as we see Leon attempt to settle down and live a normal life, alongside her partner-then-spouse, Helena Harper. As we all see Leon leaving his obsession on Ada right in the past, he attempts to tell how he felt for Helena, as they are immediately been invaded and captured by the unknown group called the Connections (the group mentioned in RE7). Apparently, trouble seems to find Leon no matter where he goes, one way or the other, he would become a target, as Helena reveals that she was carrying his unborn child, Leon must attempt to escape from the Connections by any means necessary.

2. Carlos’s campaign: After the events of RE7, Chris Redfield has completely disappeared off the grid, no trace or last known whereabouts of Chris, it is revealed at some point, Blue Umbrella wasn’t exactly Umbrella, but was much worse than the former company that was no more. Having no other option, Carlos was Jill’s only option. Jill, however 4 years since the events of RE5, has fully recovered from the virus and apparently returning back to normal. As someone informed that Chris might be dead. Jill had no other option but to seek help of an old friend, Carlos Oliveira, much to his shocking reunion, to seek out the truth of what might have really happened to Chris.

3. Billy’s campaign: Years has passed since the events of RE: Zero, Billy Coen, has since been on hiding from the government, and has realised the man who framed him had connections with The Family and The Connections. Jonathan Carver, the man who had framed Billy Coen for the murder of 23 people in Africa, has somehow resurfaced as Carver disappeared off the grid after Billy was sentenced to death. Billy, however seeks that opportunity to seek revenge on Carver for what he has done.

4. Elijah’s campaign: Elijah Harper after 3 years of working for Umbrella, has disappeared off into the grid, leaving his past behind. Elijah had to go through a lot of misery, especially leaving her youngest sisters behind, Helena and Deborah. Guilt that time had ran onto Elijah ever since. Years has passed, Elijah had resurfaced to the public attempting to make up for the mistakes he had done. Finding Helena Harper, her only family member, is what had mattered to him ever since. But once he had realised that her remaining family had been captured by the one group he had attempted to get rid of, The Connections, had kidnapped her sister, Elijah seeked out help from one of the BSAA members, Sheva Alomar to track down the Connections, and Elijah ending them once and for all.

MAJOR DETAILS:

1. The main villain of the game is the Connections leader, John Simmons, a relative of Derek C. Simmons, alongside Jonathan Carver and Alex Wesker.

2. Helena Harper is revealed to be pregnant and married to Leon Scott Kennedy, two years after the events of RE: Vendetta, and had a brother she never wanted to mention, Elijah Harper.

3. The game marks the reappearance of the long disappeared character, Billy Coen.

4. One of the antagonists is a B.O.W in disguise, similar powers to the former villain Albert Wesker.

5. Jake Muller is mentioned a few times in the story, but however does not make appearance in the game whatsoever.

6. Leon and Elijah’s story take place in the same time.

7. Billy and Carlos’s story take place in a different time, but whatsoever, are related to story of one of the main villains, Jonathan Carver.

8. There would be major deaths and some departures in the game.

That’s how i was going to set up the Resident Evil 8 storyline.

(Btw I removed the RE: Village logo, it took me a while but please give me credits if you’re going to repost the pic)

I saw someone comment this as a criticism towards iris so I'm curious what you think. they said she/barry claim she's a good reporter but she's never actually had a successful story, and always calls barry or needs someone to help her clean up the messes she gets herself into on purpose. I'm a biiig fan of iris so regardless of criticism it doesnt change my opinion of her at all, but i'm still interested in your thoughts :)

Let’s be clear, if it wasn’t for Iris and the “messes she gets herself into,” Barry would still be unemployed.

Actually, I didn’t even know this was a criticism folks made, but I appreciate you asking me about it, nonnie, because hopefully I can dispel this as a bad faith (and utterly false) criticism of Iris. To do that, though, we need to talk about Iris’s journalism over the years.

Iris is looking for her story at the start of season 1, and she finds it when a mysterious super-powered hero begins saving people. She names him the Streak and starts her blog, where she records sightings of the Streak. Barry and Joe are literally trying to get her to stop writing, while Eddie pretends to Iris that he doesn’t even believe the Streak is real and that she’s wasting her time (Eddie writes him off as a hoax, all the while he’s trying to get Singh to allow him to create a task force to catch the speedster). She’s essentially on her own, but she continues to write about the Streak, later renaming him the Flash, and this lands her a job at Central City Picture News, where her mentor, Mason Bridge, writes her off immediately as an over-eager aspiring journalist. She has so many, well-researched stories she wants to write, but the editor of CCPN is more interested in what she can write about the Flash. It’s such an uphill battle for Iris from Day 1, when it comes to her aspirations as a journalist, and nobody is coming to help her out, exactly. When she gains Mason’s respect, he tasks her with researching Harrison Wells. Iris is intuitive and sharp, and when she meets “Sam” at the West house, she immediately goes into the archives of her blog, where she’d also recorded sightings of other meta-humans, and connects the dots that “Sam” is Ronnie Raymond. Iris’s blog also serves as a meta-human database, which we see Oliver and his team use, and furthermore, the information Iris gathers on the Burning Man which she gives to Caitlin is what Caitlin uses to locate Ronnie. From the very beginning, Iris’s meticulous research is what allows for huge positive plot developments to take place. Furthermore, it’s hers and Mason’s research on Wells that propels Barry and Joe’s investigation into the truth about who Harrison Wells is. While I am still incredibly peeved that what should have been Iris’s investigation is just unceremoniously handed over to Joe and Barry, neither Barry nor Joe would have known to even begin investigating Wells. While Cisco discovered the truth on his own, this was in an isolated timeline that was erased, a timeline that saw Cisco murdered for discovering the truth. Meanwhile, Iris compiles all the data of her research and is able to connect everything back to the Particle Accelerator, a conclusion she reaches on her own through her research. She later helps the team locate Grodd, because of reports she’s kept track of.

In season 2, Iris is still a journalist for CCPN. This is really the first instance of Iris needing Barry’s aid with a story, and it’s because she’s trying to take down an illegal eviction scam and gets caught in the crosshairs. Barry saves her, and she later writes the piece. That was all her; her own research, and her own story. Barry coming to her aid, while she’s in the thick of it, is pretty standard for journalists in superhero stories, and it really doesn’t diminish the fact that she exposed this scam on her own. (And honestly, who doesn’t love the trust fall scene?) She uncovers the truth about Wally on her own and confronts Francine about it. She later confronts the speed-racing crook, in her attempts to protect Wally, and while he threatens her, she has back-up, having recorded everything he was saying, wiring it all back to CCPN to protect herself. She refuses to write a negative piece on the Flash, when Trajectory attacks Central City, and instead proves to Scott that some people are always heroes no matter what. Iris’s determination as a journalist is what makes her successful, and we see that time and again.

In season 3, she is investigating Frankie Kane’s home situation, and she goes to interview her abusive step-father, where she discovers his physical and verbal abuse of Frankie. She also ensures the entire hospital is evacuated, while Barry goes to talk Frankie down. A clear visual representation of truth and justice working together to save the day: Iris using her investigating prowess and realizing who Frankie is targeting and then evacuating the hospital, and Barry going to Frankie and saving her. Again, there’s no one coming to get Iris out of the “messes she creates”; instead, she’s actively using her journalistic talents to help save the day. Is Iris sometimes reckless with her own well-being when she goes after a story? Yes. Iris blatantly lacks self-preservation. But that’s also what makes her so incredibly compelling as a journalist, because she has flaws, but she’s smart and determined and intuitive and heroic. In 3x11, she writes a big story on the illegal arms dealership she’d been researching and how Wally saved the day. Yes, Iris enlists Wally’s help on this case, but she’s the one who has been following through and doing all the research. She tracked the man selling the illegal arms down and busts him out. This is her story, and while Wally did come to her aid, once again, she originally enlisted his help, so that she wouldn’t just recklessly be walking into a trap. Iris was also struggling with her own future demise, and so her recklessness is understandable. We have to also allow her growth as a journalist, as well.

After the PTSD she suffered during season 3, Iris leaves CCPN, but she returns to journalism in the back half of season 4 after her time as the Flash imbues in her a newfound confidence and sense of fearlessness. She wants to write a piece informing the public about DeVoe, so that they can be informed, and she makes a compelling case to Barry as to why she wants to publish this article. And he agrees with her perspective. She publishes this, and the public begins reporting directly to her blog on sightings of DeVoe, which helps Barry and Team Flash track them. Her articles on the DeVoes are all from her own research that she’d been accumulating, and they have a profound affect not just in terms of the individual success of the story, but on protecting Central City and helping to save the world. AND her articles on her blog are what get Barry is job back at CCPD, and we should all listen to David Singh who says, “You can thank your wife.” Thank you, Iris West-Allen.

In season 5, she’s quite active in reporting for her blog. We don’t know necessarily the specifics of the stories that she’s writing, but we know she actively reports on meta-humans in the city. We see her at the crime scene in 5x02, where she asks David Singh for a quote, which he gives her, because he respects her integrity as a journalist (Iris’s articles on the DeVoes brought her much acclaim in the city as a whole). We see her investigating Ragdoll in 5x05. In 5x12, she officially launches the Citizen, and in 5x13, she immediately goes to follow up on an old colleague of Dwyer’s. This leads her to Dwyer, and she holds her own against him, stabbing him with her pen. She only calls Barry in the aftermath to inform him about what happened and that she discovered Cicada’s weakness on her own. Iris saved herself and discovered vital information to defeating Cicada.

In season 6, we see her investigating a lot more, and we see how her style of investigating has changed. She’s more meticulous now. She’s more careful now. She’s really come into her own as a journalist, and that’s the point of character growth. Folks can’t criticize her more reckless decisions in 2x03 and 3x11, without recognizing that Iris also has to come into her own as a journalist. She and Team Citizen do all the research on Black Hole and then successfully publish an explosive on Black Hole, implicating McCulloch Tech. Carver sends an assassin after Iris, but she escapes by herself, after going to meet her source. While injured, she realizes that Carver is behind Black Hole, and she successfully gets him to drop the defamation suit, by coming up with an elaborate, contingency plan. That was all Iris, by herself. She then pieces together the truth about Eva.

Iris has had much success as a journalist, from writing and researching lots of stories, particularly about meta-humans, in Central City. But her most successful pieces were (1) her original blog; (2) her exposure of the illegal eviction scam; (3) her exposure of the the illegal arms dealership; (4) arming the population of Central City with information on DeVoe; and (5) her exposure of Black Hole. For only two of these, did she need Barry or Wally to come to her rescue, but she did all the research for those pieces. The success of those stories are her own. And she didn’t get herself into a mess; she was in a dangerous situation, and she made the right choice of asking for help. For all the others, she never needed anyone’s aid at all. In fact, she was cleaning a whole lot of messes up. And those five stories are simply the ones we heard the most about; we know she’s had a lot of success as a journalist otherwise, and she’s constantly using her journalistic abilities to save the day (whether it was more direct, such as in the Frankie Kane episode, or more subtle, emphasizing how her journalistic abilities play a huge role in her ability to quickly recall information and stay calm in high-stress situations, such as in the Flashtime episode).

So yeah, I think that criticism is entirely false on all accounts. I also think there’s a lot of bad faith criticisms of Iris: the same folks that will call her a “Mary Sue” (a blatantly false character assessment, it’s not even funny) will also turn around and whine about Iris being reckless. Which is it? Is she so perfectly good at everything or does she have flaws? So, I would pay no heed to those people, because they are just looking to hate on Iris without providing any real or valid criticisms.

Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know About the People We Don’t Know by Malcolm Gladwell

4.04/5

Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Revisionist History and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Outliers, offers a powerful examination of our interactions with strangers -- and why they often go wrong. How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to each other that isn't true? While tackling these questions, Malcolm Gladwell was not solely writing a book for the page. He was also producing for the ear. In the audiobook version of Talking to Strangers, you'll hear the voices of people he interviewed--scientists, criminologists, military psychologists. Court transcripts are brought to life with re-enactments. You actually hear the contentious arrest of Sandra Bland by the side of the road in Texas. As Gladwell revisits the deceptions of Bernie Madoff, the trial of Amanda Knox, and the suicide of Sylvia Plath, you hear directly from many of the players in these real-life tragedies. There's even a theme song - Janelle Monae's "Hell You Talmbout." Something is very wrong, Gladwell argues, with the tools and strategies we use to make sense of people we don't know. And because we don't know how to talk to strangers, we are inviting conflict and misunderstanding in ways that have a profound effect on our lives and our world.

Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed by Lori Gottlieb

4.38/5

One day, Lori Gottlieb is a therapist who helps patients in her Los Angeles practice. The next, a crisis causes her world to come crashing down. Enter Wendell, the quirky but seasoned therapist in whose office she suddenly lands. With his balding head, cardigan, and khakis, he seems to have come straight from Therapist Central Casting. Yet he will turn out to be anything but. As Gottlieb explores the inner chambers of her patients' lives -- a self-absorbed Hollywood producer, a young newlywed diagnosed with a terminal illness, a senior citizen threatening to end her life on her birthday if nothing gets better, and a twenty-something who can't stop hooking up with the wrong guys -- she finds that the questions they are struggling with are the very ones she is now bringing to Wendell.

My Age of Anxiety: Fear, Hope, Dread, and the Search for Peace of Mind by Scott Stossel

3.84/5

A riveting, revelatory, and moving account of the author’s struggles with anxiety, and of the history of efforts by scientists, philosophers, and writers to understand the condition

As recently as thirty-five years ago, anxiety did not exist as a diagnostic category. Today, it is the most common form of officially classified mental illness. Scott Stossel gracefully guides us across the terrain of an affliction that is pervasive yet too often misunderstood.

Drawing on his own long-standing battle with anxiety, Stossel presents an astonishing history, at once intimate and authoritative, of the efforts to understand the condition from medical, cultural, philosophical, and experiential perspectives. He ranges from the earliest medical reports of Galen and Hippocrates, through later observations by Robert Burton and Søren Kierkegaard, to the investigations by great nineteenth-century scientists, such as Charles Darwin, William James, and Sigmund Freud, as they began to explore its sources and causes, to the latest research by neuroscientists and geneticists. Stossel reports on famous individuals who struggled with anxiety, as well as on the afflicted generations of his own family. His portrait of anxiety reveals not only the emotion’s myriad manifestations and the anguish anxiety produces but also the countless psychotherapies, medications, and other (often outlandish) treatments that have been developed to counteract it. Stossel vividly depicts anxiety’s human toll—its crippling impact, its devastating power to paralyze—while at the same time exploring how those who suffer from it find ways to manage and control it. My Age of Anxiety is learned and empathetic, humorous and inspirational, offering the reader great insight into the biological, cultural, and environmental factors that contribute to the affliction.

The Recovering: Intoxication and Its Aftermath by Leslie Jamison

3.99/5

By the New York Times bestselling author of The Empathy Exams, an exploration of addiction, and the stories we tell about it, that reinvents the traditional recovery memoir.

With its deeply personal and seamless blend of memoir, cultural history, literary criticism, and journalistic reportage, The Recovering turns our understanding of the traditional addiction narrative on its head, demonstrating that the story of recovery can be every bit as electrifying as the train wreck itself. Leslie Jamison deftly excavates the stories we tell about addiction--both her own and others'--and examines what we want these stories to do, and what happens when they fail us.

All the while, she offers a fascinating look at the larger history of the recovery movement, and at the literary and artistic geniuses whose lives and works were shaped by alcoholism and substance dependence, including John Berryman, Jean Rhys, Raymond Carver, Billie Holiday, David Foster Wallace, and Denis Johnson, as well as brilliant figures lost to obscurity but newly illuminated here.

For the power of her striking language and the sharpness of her piercing observations, Jamison has been compared to such iconic writers as Joan Didion and Susan Sontag. Yet her utterly singular voice also offers something new. With enormous empathy and wisdom, Jamison has given us nothing less than the story of addiction and recovery in America writ large, a definitive and revelatory account that will resonate for years to come.

Look Me in the Eye: My Life with Asperger's by John Elder Robison

3.92/5

Ever since he was small, John Robison had longed to connect with other people, but by the time he was a teenager, his odd habits—an inclination to blurt out non sequiturs, avoid eye contact, dismantle radios, and dig five-foot holes (and stick his younger brother in them)—had earned him the label “social deviant.�� No guidance came from his mother, who conversed with light fixtures, or his father, who spent evenings pickling himself in sherry. It was no wonder he gravitated to machines, which could, at least, be counted on.

After fleeing his parents and dropping out of high school, his savant-like ability to visualize electronic circuits landed him a gig with KISS, for whom he created their legendary fire-breathing guitars. Later, he drifted into a “real” job, as an engineer for a major toy company. But the higher Robison rose in the company, the more he had to pretend to be “normal” and do what he simply couldn’t: communicate. It wasn’t worth the paycheck.

It was not until he was forty that an insightful therapist told him he had the form of autism called Asperger’s syndrome. That understanding transformed the way Robison saw himself—and the world.

Look Me in the Eye is the moving, darkly funny story of growing up with Asperger’s at a time when the diagnosis simply didn’t exist. A born storyteller, Robison takes you inside the head of a boy whom teachers and other adults regarded as “defective,” who could not avail himself of KISS’s endless supply of groupies, and who still has a peculiar aversion to using people’s given names (he calls his wife “Unit Two”). He also provides a fascinating reverse angle on the younger brother he left at the mercy of their nutty parents—the boy who would later change his name to Augusten Burroughs and write the bestselling memoir Running with Scissors.

Ultimately, this is the story of Robison’s journey from his world into ours, and his new life as a husband, father, and successful small business owner—repairing his beloved high-end automobiles. It’s a strange, sly, indelible account—sometimes alien, yet always deeply human.

LA by Night Season 1 Guest PCs Ranked

Obviously, spoilers for Season 1 of LA by Night

The guests in LA by Night have been fascinating because unlike Critical Role where the guests are playing independent characters that the main cast happens to run into, overwhelmingly the guests here are largely playing NPCs with major plot purposes. I think I kind of like this way of doing it better. But LA by Night and Critical Role have very different narrative styles and this makes sense.

So, let’s talk about the guest characters! This gets long, so the whole thing below the cut.

In ascending order by love:

Diane (Kelly Lynne D’Angelo): Look, Diane is here for one purpose and one purpose only: for Chloe to have someone to talk to. She serves this purpose beautifully, but that doesn’t mean she’s interesting (although Jasper’s reactions to her and Juan are gold).

Strikes a Chord (Jason Charles Miller): Of course, Jason Charles Miller was going to be a werewolf. The man is probably an actual werewolf! That said, he’s in one of the weakest episodes of the season (saved only by excellent openings and closings) and Strikes a Chord ... doesn’t do much. This is the guest PC that feels the most like a random new player wandering in instead of having a solid story purpose.

Ramona (Bex Taylor-Klaus): I like Ramona, but, as a guest PC, she’s just there to provide a face for a quick interaction. *shrug*

Ib (Noura Ibraham): I’ll admit to liking Ib more as a background NPC, but I was intrigued by the different side of things that we got to see. We gained more insight into ghouls and Noura brought some (if not needed, then fascinating) emotion to the part. (I’ll also say that Victor’s reactions to Ib’s emotions gave some interesting insight into his own discomforts).

Carver (Taliesin Jaffe): A very interesting character and one I have assume we’ll see more of. We start out thinking he’s a bad guy because he turned Annabelle--and those scenes are really painted as Annabelle confronting trauma in an intense way--but that turns out to be wrong: he turned her, but only to save her after she was killed by another vampire. Fun, but he seems more destined for future greatness.

Miranda (Satine Phoenix): Look, Miranda is largely a plot device, but ... she’s getting extra points just for toying with Annabelle.

Victoria Ash (Jessica Chobot): Although I wasn’t thrilled by Jessica Chobot’s performance, Victoria Ash is something else. She is a perfect counterpoint to the cast, showing us just how dismissive of humans a vampire can be. The slaughter she orders is ... intense.

Gregory Demetrios (Vince Caso): Look, I just like this guy’s bluster in the face of the complete failure that constitutes his life.

Chloe (Becca Scott): I mean, it’s not necessary her appearance that’s so enticing, but the impact she has well out weighs the banality of her scene. The moment when she gets the note is heartbreaking and there’s a real question left hanging in the air of whether things will just end with that note.

Ellenore (Marisha Ray): I knew Marisha showed up and, well, she’s my favorite from Critical Role, so .... This was just so emotional and I loved the connection that was shown between El and Annabelle. But I also like the way that she put pressure on Annabelle to make a choice about her life by making it clear that she was willing to be turned.

Chaz Prince (Mark Meers): Well, holy shit. The second episode comes along and Mark Meers just slides in and starts chewing the scenery. Fantastic! Chaz is so wonderfully punchable, but also starts to throw some light on Nelli and introduces a nice thread that I hope they actually follow up on: namely, abusive relationships.

X (Xander Jeanneret): X is probably the funniest past of LA by Night. He’s so perfectly played by Xander as a cracked mind, but he also feels comfortable and honest, which is probably why he’s one of the few vampires that Annabelle would ever listen to ... which makes his reality check to Annabelle in the epilogue all the more powerful. X isn’t challenging Annabelle because he feels like he had a responsibility or because he feels like he’s delivery “a truth.” No, he’s telling her that they are monsters and that they have to accept that because he likes her.

Fiona (Ash Minnick): Look, X is the most entertaining, but Fiona? Fiona is just a beast of a vampire and there is great joy in seeing her constantly poking and looking down on Victor. She consistently out Ventrues Victor and it is delightful. Also, she is absolutely immoral and she presents a fantastic contrast to the regular cast who, for all their flaws, have tried to find at least the semblance of peaceful coexistence. For all her smarts, Fiona is a predator and she would end anyone who gets in her way and has. It’s just a beautiful performance.

so you want your gay x-man to have a love interest

there's 3 options when editorial/writers start thinking about pairing off homo superior with another lgbt character.

1. bring back a character they had established chemistry with and confirm the mutual attraction (ricstar, roxycess)

2. introduce a new mutant character and develop a relationship between the two of them (benji deeds and nathaniel carver)

3. give them a human love interest not connected to the existing xmen universe (bobby drake and judah, anole and noam)

here's the thing about option 3, though, because who actually has seen noam around? i think his only appearance is the amazing x-men issue where he's introduced, and then victor hasn't actually had a love interest since then, or mentioned noam. judah is great, and if he and bobby are getting back together that's great, but what happens when sina grace is no longer writing iceman? (in which event i'm really hoping we get to hang onto michaela ladak and madin)

the couples we think of as memorable x-couples are rogue and gambit, jean and scott, emma and scott, dazzler and longshot. also mystique and destiny, rictor and shatterstar. couples where both members are involved in the x-men in some capacity (or against the x-men, in the case of raven and irene) and have their own compex histories and backstories to draw from. gay x-characters deserve the same treatment.

marvel has had some very memorable non-super love interests over the years, with mary jane watson probably being the most popular, but x-books don't necessarily follow the same pattern. madelyne pryor might be the most well-established non-x-men love interest and look how that worked out

either one of two things need to happen: the x-office needs to start developing richer stories with non-x-men love interests (for example- lee forrester, charlotte jones, vera cantor) or, gay x-men should get to have love stories with other gay x-men.

(i didn't bring up kyle and jean-paul a) because northstar is imo more involved in alpha flight than an x-men character and b) i feel like kyle did have a decent backstory being jean-paul's manager and jeanne-marie's friend)

(anyway give xi'an a girlfriend 2k19)

At least 12 Saudis face expulsion from US

More than a dozen Saudi military personnel training in the U.S. are being expelled following an investigation into a shooting rampage at a Florida military base that killed three American service members, multiple media outlets reported.

Eight others were wounded in the Dec. 6 attack at Naval Air Station Pensacola.

The Saudis being ousted are not accused of conspiring with the shooter, a 21-year-old member of the Royal Saudi Air Force, CNN reported. Some were found to have connections to extremist groups and others were found in possession of child porn, CNN said, citing two officials close to the investigation.

The Washington Post said federal officials were preparing to announce developments in the case within days.

The gunman, a second lieutenant, was fatally shot by a sheriff’s deputy responding to the attack. The Pentagon then grounded all Saudi pilots training in the United States.

Tweets attributed to the killer criticized U.S. support for Israel. He was one of 852 Saudi nationals in the U.S. for military training under a security cooperation agreement with Saudi Arabia, and the Pentagon immediately began scouring government and commercial databases in a search for red flags.

The Pentagon would neither confirm nor deny the report.

“In the wake of the Pensacola tragedy, the Department of Defense restricted to classroom training programs foreign military students from Saudi Arabia while we conducted a review and enhancement of our foreign student vetting procedures,” said Lt. Col. Robert Carver, a spokesman for the Department of Defense. “That training pause is still in place while we implement new screening and security measures.”

Carver referred further inquiries to the Justice Department, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment from USA TODAY.

In a Dec. 10 memo to military leaders calling for enhanced vetting of foreign nationals entering the U.S. for training, Deputy Defense Secretary David Norquist referred to Saudi Arabia as an “essential partner” for the Pentagon. The country is the top buyer of U.S. arms and hosts a growing contingent of U.S. troops sent to the Middle East.

No conspirators have been charged in the attack, which drew condemnation from the Saudi government. Saudi officials pledged full support for the U.S. investigation.

The Navy identified the victims as Airman Mohammed Hathaim, 19, from St. Petersburg, Florida; Ensign Joshua Kaleb Watson, 23, from Coffee, Alabama; and Airman Apprentice Cameron Scott Walters, 21, from Richmond Hill, Georgia.

Note

(1/11) “Boyd and Erica get a better deal in fandom than they ever did in the show.” Lets see what I can do. When Stiles cleans up the belongings of the nazi-werewolf he finds a ritual that purports to return people from the underworld. It is rather complicated but fortunately some key “ingredients” such as a banshee to open the gates and a hellhound to guide the way are already available.

(2/11) The tricky part is that someone who is connected to the to-be-resurrected person must be sent to the underworld find them and return with them. There is no strict time limit per se but if the sorcerer casting the spell is exhausted completely he’ll die and everyone still in the underworld is trapped there. The ritual warns that the dead “move on” so it will be more difficult to get back people who have been dead for longer. (3/11) Stiles thinks that this is finally a chance to make amends for all the death he caused when possessed by the nogitsune. He tells Scott and Lydia and Parrish and they start to prepare the ritual, and look for people guiding the dead back. Scott will look for Allison, Danny and Ethan come back to look for his brother while Derek and Isaac will try to find their packmates.

(4/11) Stiles casts the spell and stays behind to keep the gate open (which means that O’brien has only few scenes fitting his tight schedule). Aiden’s spirit still lingers close to the edges of the underworld and Ethan finds him soon and leads him back to the world of the living (which means that the carver brothers also don’t need to spend too much time for TW).

(5/11) In the meantime, Scott keeps looking for Allison. He finds her chained in a cellar full of torture instruments, courtesy of Gerard and Kate who both blame Allisons “treason” for their deaths. Scott frees her and they try to go back, but Kate and Gerard attack them trying to keep Scott trapped until Stiles is exhausted. And being already dead they cannot be killed and it looks like they’re succeeding, until Victoria shows up.

(6/11) Due to the nature of Gerards deaths he has learned of his plan and well betrayal and homicidal rage just about covers her feelings for him. While she still dislikes Scott she is willing to entrust Allison to him if he gets her back to the land of the living. She says Allison goodbye and fights off Gerard and Kate while Scott and Allison escape.

(7/11) In the meantime Isaac and Derek keep looking for Boyd and Erica but don’t find them anywhere and go deeper and deeper into the underworld despite the risks. Upon his death Boyd immediately went looking for his little sister who had already been dead for years which means that he is already much further than a normal ghost of his age. Nonetheless they eventually hear Dereks howl and answer.

(8/11) Derek and Isaac find them in a makeshift house Erica and Boyd made for his sister to offer her some comfort and protection. They start to make their way back but are confronted by a new hellhound who demands that Boyd’s sister must stay here as neither Derek or Isaac have any connection to her and both Boyd and Erica are dead and thus don’t count.

(9/11) Derek tries to fight him but is defeated while the hellhound reminds them that Stiles strength is nearing its end and they should hurry if they don’t want to be trapped in the underworld. Boyd offers to stay in his sisters stead, to which the hellhound agrees but his sister refuses to leave without him. So Erica offers to stay instead to let both Boyds return to the living.

10/11) The hellhound is surprised and impressed and allows them to leave, and the manage it out just before Stiles and the gate with him collapse. When the sheriff arrives to check on all the howling and lighting in the preserve he finds an exhausted and injured but happy and complete pack of wolves/hellhounds/… curled into each other. All is well except that they have to get themselves declared legally alive again which is a pain.(11/11) Seriously just arriving in court is not sufficient: www(.)nytimes(.)com/2013/10/12/us/declared-legally-dead-as-he-sat-before-the-judge(.)html And they all lived and howled happily ever after.

This ask is epic! I had to wait until I was off mobile to answer it.

This is incredible. It gave me unexpected Victoria Argent feels even!

I would read 100K+ of this fic. Not only that, but I’d pitch it as season 7 if the show wasn’t cancelled!

Todd Kohlhepp Is The Subject Of 'Serial Killer: The Devil Unchained

A three-part series from Investigation Discovery will examine the dramatic rescue of a woman locked inside a shipping container and "chained like a dog" by a serial killer. “Serial Killer: Devil Unchained” sheds light on the harrowing ordeal of Kala Brown, a South Carolina woman who spent a grueling 65 days in captivity after being reported missing for over two months. Brown was found disheveled and chained up on Nov. 3, 2016, in a large container at the 100-acre compound of local real estate agent Todd Kohlhepp while investigators were following up on a tip regarding a potential sex crime.

Kala Brown and Charlie Carver. (Anderson Police Department) “Do you know where your buddy is?” arriving investigators asked Brown about her boyfriend, who disappeared with her on Aug. 31, 2016. “Charlie?” Brown answered in the archival video from her rescue. “He shot him,” Brown affirmed while still in restraints. “Todd Kohlhepp shot Charlie Carver three times in the chest. He wrapped him in a blue tarp, put him in the bucket of the tractor, locked me down here -- I’ve never seen him again.” Kohlhepp would ultimately plead guilty to the murders of Carver and six others over 13 years and was handed seven consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole. The body of the 32-year-old Carver was later found on the property. While in custody, Kohlhepp came clean to authorities about the quadruple murder of Beverly Buy, Scott Ponder, Brian Lucas and Chris Sherbert – all shot to death in 2003 in a Chesnee, S.C., Superbike Motorsports location.

The shipping container in which an abducted woman was held for two months, being removed from Todd Kohlhepp's property in Woodruff, S.C., in 2016. (Lauren Petracca/The Greenville News via AP) (The Associated Press) Additionally, Kohlhepp would be charged in connection with the deaths of Johnny and Meagan Coxie in 2015; their bodies were also recovered from Kohlhepp’s property while authorities were rescuing Brown. These discoveries would count as Kohlhepp’s sixth and seventh murder charges. However, the limited series -- produced by journalist Maria Awes -- takes a turn when she receives a phone call from Kohlhepp, who claims to have murdered more than his seven victims. That prompted Awes, former Kohlhepp colleague and current biographer Gary Barrett and former FBI agent John Douglass to further probe the convicted killer’s background in pursuit of the truth. “Serial Killer: Devil Unchained” premieres Monday at 9 p.m. ET on Investigation Discovery.

So I started up a new playthrough for Sara, with the recent update. One, I'm so pleased I can get the default gruffy-beard Alec Ryder look now with a custom Ryder (you have no idea how happy I am about this :D). Two, the CC is much improved, and so are the facial animations. I ended up changing Sara’s eye color from green to blue and complexion to the one with freckles, and I absolutely adore it. For the first time, I can really look at Sara and say, “Yes, this is my girl, this is who I imagine Sara to be.”

Third, having replayed the first hour or so for the third or fourth time (counting the early access), it really brought home something for me.

Many a spoiler below the cut:

They shouldn’t have killed Alec Ryder off so soon. I get they wanted to make Ryder the Pathfinder, set him/her on this road early on. But while it is a sad moment when Alec sacrifices himself, it doesn’t carry as nearly an emotional punch as it should (and it really should have), because we hardly had time to know him at that point.

With the original trilogy, with characters like Mordin and Thane and Legion, we had two games to get to know them, establish relationships with. Even in the first Mass Effect, with either Ashley or Kaidan dying, it didn’t happen until the second to last main mission. I actually would’ve liked to see Ryder interact with his/her father a bit more, maybe butt heads on decisions, maybe have an actual heart to heart. Maybe have a similar situation where Alec still has to pass off the Pathfinder position to Ryder, then at a later point in the game, he dies, for whatever reason. But at least by that point, we’ll have developed more of a relationship with him and his death would carry more weight.

And while we’re at it, the same could be said for Ryder’s sibling. I like Scott, and I think it would have been really interesting to have him as a squadmate (and the same for Sara with a male Ryder). One of the things I liked about Dragon Age II was having the option for your sibling to be a companion (at least for the first act and the DLC); it made the connection that much stronger, and had more of an impact when something happened to Bethany or Carver. And yeah, I get that they wanted to avoid confusion by not having people call both twins Ryder when using custom names, but I think they could’ve figured out a way to make it work.

The Ryder family and the secrets Alec carried are meant to be one of the central points in the game. And while there are some good moments, they don’t carry nearly the emotional weight as I’d expect they should.

Things not included:

ST:TNG stuff (Mr. Data)

expanded definitions:

All of the following should be able to pass the Turing test, and should be/have been (at the minimum in their original forms) products of human or alien intelligence. "Standard" definitions of intelligence apply.

androids (A) - robots in humanoid form, these can be mechanical and/or organic (_Do androids Dream of Electric Sheep_).

computer systems (C) - these range in size and type from a fair sized mini computer (_Ariel_) to an planetary

computer (_Colossus_) to a galactic network with one single mind (_Speaker for the Dead_).

humans in computerized/program/digitized form (H) - these tend to be copies of people which only exist in computerized form - such as the hacker in (_Neuromancer_) and folks of City Memory in (_Eon_).

non-mechanical, human created intelligences (N) - beings which have been (in most cases) genetically altered or are biological (_Blood Music_). NOT forced evolution

other intelligences (O) - beings which are difficult to categorize: anything Berserker, tanks, books, planets, planets (Asimov's Gaia), satellites, etc. Where (O) is used, the particular form has also been named when known.

programs (P) - able to move independently from one computer system to another, usually created by a program(mer) _The Adolescence or P1_).

robots (R) - constitute functional and specialized beings which are mobile and are not (S) or (P). Anything between vaguely humanoid (Dr. Who's Cybermen) and computers on wheels (R2D2) can be considered robots of the 'functional' robot class. 'Specialized' robots are those which are geared/optimized to performing one job - they can look like either androids (The Terminator) or functional robots (Val's from _Pirates of the Thunder_).

ships/computer systems (S) - essentially an (A) which is only mobile in the form of a (star) ship (_Pirates of the Thunder_). However, there are cases where the (S) is essentially a well programmed (R) which is only mobile as stated (_The Number of the Beast_).

cyborgs/mechanical humans (Y) - strictly speaking these are not AI. The definition here is that the (Y) is either (1) a human brain in control of a computer system/star ship (_The Ship Who Sang_) where at the very least the person's brain has been modified to contain computerized parts (_The Rapture Effect?_) (Did you ever wish that you could have a math co-processor?). (Y)'s are NOT (for the purpose of this list) organic beings whose natural body parts have beenreplaced by mechanical ones (ie. Luke Skywalker after his forearm was severed, or bionic people). unsure/no idea (?) - just what it says, so someone PLEASE read it and tell me what type is is and whether it belongs here.

evolved AI being (e) - usually begin as man-made devices hich then develop intelligence on their own (_Valentina_).
