Story: 5 out of 5 Smut: 0 out of 5
Hands down, this is my favorite fantasy read of the year!
I think, however, that the thing I loved most about The Forgotten Goddess is that it dives right into the character meetings and drama. Sure, I love a good world building and character-building story, but this one builds as the story progresses from the very first chapter. I liked that it wasn't a hundred pages of info dump before diving into the action. You get the action from the very beginning!
This book also has a little bit of everything. There's humor, there are feel-good moments, action, magical moments, and angst. Ugh, the angst!
I flipped page after page, not wanting to put the book down. And then when it was finally over, I was an emotional wreck. I have no idea how I'm gonna hold out for book 2 lol.
Now enjoy my rambling thoughts..
* Rhea flipping off Ethan in the bookstore and making him laugh has me grinning like an idiot 🤗 They only said a handful of words to each other! How am I already shipping it..? 🤔 😆
* How the hell did I not know werewolves were going to be part of this 😨
* Holy shit. She saw through his Mirage. It’s meant to be 😏 lol
* So Ethan is Hermes..
* Shit. The shifters took the girls 😒 Come on, wake up and fuck shit up!
* Well nevermind. Fucking collars.
* Oh hell yes! She still has access to her powers! 🙌🏻
* Lupo went from being a creep to a raging asshole. Big middle finger for you, my dude 🖕🏽
* Ugh.. I feel so bad for the girls 😩
* They’re saved. Oh thank god. And even unconscious, she called Hermes’ name 😏 I ship it even more now 😂
* Goddamn. She exploded out of her cuffs. Good for her. I didn’t like the whole mind violation.
* “Well, I’ll just come out and say it. Rhea, you’re an immortal goddess.” — Lmfao. Way to drop the bomb, Atlas 😂
* Her memories.. aren’t hers? 🥺
* Kind of jealous of the portlet system lol. I wish we could transport food and stuff into our homes like nothing.
* Man, Hermes does not like Flint lol.
* Four elements. You lucky duck 😏
* Flint and Rhea in the closet.. ugh. Hermes ripping the door open and being livid.. 😍
* Aww. That “almost” moment in the hallway out her apartment had me so excited. But she thinks it’s only a joke 🥺
* Oh. Oh no. The dreams are memories.. and he couldn’t feel the mate bond with her 😩
* Damien 💔
* “Turn. It. Off.” — whoa. Klaus Mikaelson flashbacks 😂
* Oohhh. That close call with Lupo had my heart pounding.
* Who the fuck was in Rhea’s apartment 🤔
* Awww. Rhea and Callie’s friendship is everything 🥰 That panic attack was starting to make me tense 😬
* Another memory? Only this time she’s a different person? And Ares smiling sadly as he tells her, “You are home. As I always remind you.” Don’t tell me they’re related 👀 😬
* Temple of Kukulcán? Now I’m having a Namor flashback from Black Panther 2 😂
* Oh. Not related. He wants her to rule with him.. No, sir. You can’t have her.
* Oh no. Achilles had to kill Patroclus 💔💔💔
* Fuckkkk. That memory of the car crash..? Brutal.
* Where the fuck did Rhea end up after Atlas put her in the portal?!
* “I found you. I’ll always find you.” — well I was supposed to stop reading for the night, but guess who’s reading one more chapter?
* ATHENA TOO?! 💔 And they think she’s a spy 😩 Wtf, man.
* “Just survive” — those words are gonna make me cry 😔
* Ohhh, fuck you, Flint! I can’t believe y’all kidnapped aunt Demi.
* Aunt Demi!!!! 🥺
* Medusa is GORGEOUS 😍
* “I’m sorry, I don’t have separate cottages for everyone.” — do I sense forced proximity? And hopefully only one bed? 😂
* One bed, one bed, one bed! 😏
* Hermes is having pervy thoughts and I’m here for it.
* Oh come on! The tension between these two is killing me 😩
* The Forgotten Goddess poem gave me chills!! And now we know who is responsible for the memory tampering 😬
* Dude, that training session got hot 🥵
* She’s gonna break her own heart and leave..? I don’t like it here anymore 😭
* They finally kissed!!!! Please don’t leave, Rhea 🥺
* Holy shit. She restored Flora 😨
* She’s his mate.. but their connection is severed. Why are you doing this to me 😩
* “Don’t you see? Not even death is strong enough to keep us apart. We have found each other a hundred times, and I’ll find you a hundred more. Across every lifetime, in any realm, my soul belongs to no one else but you.” — what the fuck are you doing to me, Rebekah?! 😭😭😭😭😭😭
* Aunt Demi..? 🥺 You- you’re with Ares?
* Ana?! Why the fuck is there so much betrayal 💔
* THEY FUCKING DIDNT!? Did his sword just pierce who I think it did?????
* We know her name. We know her name! We finally know who she is.
* More betrayal?! For fuck’s sake, man.
* Wait.. what?! It can’t end like this. I need book two asap!

<3 pairing: chaebol!stepbrother!sunghoon x chaebol!fem!reader (some chaebol!bestfriend!soobin x reader)
<3 genre: angst, fluff
<3 warning: sunghoon gets jealous, he is unwillingly an asshole, making out, mentions of love (sorry if any of you guys are triggered by anything else)
<3 word count: 1.9k
<3 summary: park sunghoon, the most popular rich boy around town, who you are super attracted to becomes your stepbrother. what happens when you realize that he is also extremely attracted to you?
<3 xtra stuff: Soobin is the same age as Sunghoon. They are both 20 while y/n is 18 (2 years older). If you guys have watched Tempted/The Great Seducer y/n and soobin’s hang out is inspired by Shihyun, Sooji, and Sejoo’s (the three friend’s) hideout. (Soobin and y/n have been friends since y/n was born. Like 2-year old Soobin held y/n when she was a newborn)
«───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────»
You wake up to being surrounded by a comforting warmth. You felt Sunghoon’s muscular arms wrapped around your waist and your face against his chest. After a couple of minutes of admiring the face of the man in front of you, you remember that you had an appointment with your stylist at 10:00 to plan an outfit for an event that your mother’s company has every year. It currently was 8:13, so you tried to squee yourself out of Sunghoon’s tight hold. Finally being able to sit up you were about to get out of his bed, but you suddenly felt two strong arms pull you back into bed. “Where do you think you’re going?” Sunghoon asked in his raspy morning voice. “I have to get ready to meet with my stylist later.” You responded snuggling back into his hold. Sunghoon groaned softly shoving his pace into the crook of your neck smelling your addictive scent. “Just cancel and stay with me,” Sunghoon whined. You wish you could stay but you had to go. This event was a pretty big one. ”What are you meeting your stylist for anyways?” Sunghoon asked curiously. “My mom has this big event that she hosts every year and I need to go to a fitting for the brand I am representing today.” You answered in a soft tone. Sunghoon thought for a little and then jokingly asked with a small chuckle, ”So who’s gonna be the lucky man who gets to be your date?” You suddenly remembered something. You were going to have a date! You blanked out wondering who it was this year. Of course, you wanted it to be Sunghoon, but it was obviously not him. the Assuming from a joking tone you’re sure that he doesn’t know that you’re going to have a date. “I don’t need a date.” You said with a flip of your hair. “I’m perfectly fine by myself.” Sunghoon grinned, “That’s my girl” After cuddling a bit more you finally got out of the bed and got ready. «───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────» Arriving at the salon you met your stylist. “Y/N!” You heard your names being called so you turned around. “Sohee unnie!” Your stylist of 8 years smiled. “Are you ready for this?” You smiled,”Yup! I’m ready” After hours and hours of looking over dresses, makeup, and hairstyles you finally finished your look. Since you were done you started to pack up. “Oh right! Before you go I have to tell you who your date is!“ Yoy looked back in anticipation of who it was although you already had someone you were almost 100% sure who it was and Sohee continued,”You’re date this year is the one and only Choi Soobin as always.” Yup. That’s right. Your date and the person you were expecting was Choi Soobi, your date since you were children. Choi Soobin was your best friend and although he lives in Jeju now you guys are still very close. He comes and visits every once in a while for events, meetings, and of course just to see his best friend of 17 years. When you finished your small conversation with Sohee you went home.
«───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────»
Walking through the door all you saw was darkness. The lights were off. No one was home. You wondered where Sunghoon was, but you didn’t worry because it was only 5:30 pm.
-2:00 am-
Its already 2:00 am and Sunghoon isn’t home yet. You’ve called him a couple times and he didn’t pick up. You were worried sick and you were waiting on the couch.
«───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────»
It was the next morning and you woke up in your bed with the amazing feeling of warmth next to you. You smiled Sunghoon was home. You turned around and saw Sunghoon looking back at you. He smiled at you and pulled you in closer to kiss your forehead. “Why did you wait for my love? When I got home you were asleep on the couch in your clothes and without a blanket! I was so worried that you were gonna get sick.” You put your hands on his stomach and started to touch it. “I was worried!” Sunghoon had an amused face by now, “Worried enough to fall asleep?” “Shut up” You answered back. Sunghoon raised his eyebrows. “Is that a challenge?” You panicked and jumped out of bed. Sunghoon laughed at you and stood up. “Let’s get ready and eat breakfast.” After getting ready you came down to the kitchen to see Sunghoon already sitting at the table with breakfast ready waiting for you. “Where are you going today?” Sunghoon stroked your head, ”Yesterday my stylist informed me that I would be attending your mom’s event. Today I have a fitting.” You smiled and shortly after it faded. You realized that he would have to have a date. Everyone brought a date that their stylist chooses and of course sometimes with the assistance of the person, but the thing that irked you the most was that his date wasn’t going to be you and it would be some other girl. Sunghoon noticed the change and mood and asked why you were upset. “What do you mean? I am not upset.” You said in a normal tone. Raising his eyebrows in confusion Sunghoon decided to not ask questions and answer with a simple “ok”. After a breakfast of hand-holding and flirting Sunghoon left.
«───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────»
Being at home alone was becoming a little boring. You thought it was surprising that you weren’t enjoying it because you’re a homebody, but maybe it was because you had spent so much time with Sunghoon. You were about to go out alone, but suddenly your phone rang. You checked the caller id. 🐰Binnie 🐰. Soobin was calling you. You excitedly picked up the phone.
“Soobin! I missed you.”
“I missed you too. I heard auntie is getting married again. Are you okay cutie?”
“Yeah, I guess. Surprisingly I hope this marriage doesn’t last.”
“Why? Isn’t your mom getting married to Park Sungho, Park Sunghoon’s dad?
“That’s why Soobin!”
“Ohhh. Even though you don’want them to last they seemed pretty happy Y/N. I met your mom and Mr. Park in Jeju before I left.”
“I know I shouldn’t be selfish. WAIT rewind. You are in Seoul!?”
“Yes, dummy when am I ever not in Seoul before the gala? I have moved away from you for 2 years already and you haven’t remembered my schedule.”
“Well Soobin I am a busy girl”
“More like distracted. But let’s meet up now. I wanna hang out with my date!”
“Hmph. Alright, let’s meet. Our place?”
“Of course see you there”
“Bye”
«───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────»
-Flashback-
(7th grade y/n)
“Soobin look at it! It is perfect!” you exclaimed looking at the place in front of you. You guys’ mothers had built a hang out for you and Soobin in a secret room behind a big painting on the first floor of their newly merged company building. “It is. This is our place from now on!” Soobin said back providing the same energy.
Soon even as you guys grew older it stayed as you guys’ place where no one else knew the password and was allowed not even your parents. It became a comfortable place for both of you guys where you guys would go to find each other no matter what.
«───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────»
-At the Hideout-
“Soobin? Come out! I know you’re in here” You stated in a loud voice. “Boo!” “AHHH!” Soobin laughed at you until he was on the ground. “Choi Soobin you’re dead!” You said annoyed. Soobin realized that he had messed up and ran for his life up the stairs to the loft. You chased after him. When you got to the too you couldn’t see him. Then all of a sudden you felt a pair of strong arms pin your hands to your back. “Ha! Got you!” Soobin said with his signature smile. He let you go and hugged you which you gladly returned. You guys hung out for the rest of the day getting food, shopping, and playing video games in the hang-out. What felt like 10 minutes was 10 hours. You didn’t realize it but soon it was 1 am. Soobin looked at the clock and his eyes widened, “I should get you home now little one. It is late.” You looked at the clock shocked, ”Yes, I should get home now.” You guys turned off the TV and the lights and started to walk home. Yes, walk home. This wasn’t an uncommon occurrence with you and Soobin. Starting in high school you guys would always hang out until late into the night and walk home even though you only had to have one call to get home by car. Your houses were close to the hangout and it gave you a taste of what it felt like to live like normal kids. Not heirs to big companies, not kids who were born with silver spoons in their mouths, not brand ambassadors, just normal kids. You have always felt safe around Soobin. Soobin was your haven and will always be your haven.
«───────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ─────────»
When you guys got to your house Soobin walked you to your door and you hugged him bye as always. Not until you get to the door did you start worrying about Sunghoon. Unlocking the door, you quietly took off your shoes and started into the house. Not even getting halfway to your room you were stopped by a fuming Sunghoon. “What were you doing out this late!? I was worried sick! And who was that guy who walked you through the door!?” You were taken aback. Sunghoon had never raised his voice at you. Suddenly feeling vulnerable you answered in a nervous, small voice. Studdering you said, ”M-my friend came back from Jeju to visit. We were just hanging out.” Sunghoon in a loud and intimidating voice said, “There is no reason for you to be hanging out this late! Especially with another boy. Are you even hanging out!? What if you’re doing something else? You said you wanted to see where things go with us, baby!” “How could you say that?” Your eyes filled with tears. You couldn’t take it anymore so you ran into your room and started sobbing. Realizing that he had hurt you Sunghood ran upstairs. Sunghoon felt a pang of guilt hit his heart hearing your sobs outside of your room. He knocked on the door. “C-come in,” you said quietly from inside your room. “Oppa is sorry princess. I just got worried and jealous and I couldn’t hold it in. I didn’t mean to make you cry. Please don’t be upset with me.” Sunghoon said his eyes brimming with tears seeing how he had hurt you. “It’s okay oppa. I understand.” You said as you came closer to him cuddling into his side. He grabbed you tightly and pulled you into his chest as he laid next to you. Sunghoon suddenly had an urge to kiss you, so he landed his lips on yours, and you guys passionately made out until one of you guys had to pull away for air. “I love you princess.” Sunghoon seriously stated. “I love you too, oppa.” you said back, and that night you guys fell asleep happily and full of love.

I also saw T yesterday. Man, it was so intense and exhausting. The flashbacks continued and T seemed a bit taken aback from seeing how intense they are for me.
It also became blatantly clear that this subject is still so sensitive/vulnerable for me that I almost cannot bear any human connection at all. I turned away from her.
So we had a couple of tense moments. It turned around for the better near the end of the session. I felt more understood and connected, even if I couldn't tell her exactly what was going on. She gave some examples of clients she had who had physical symptoms related to psychological stuff, like one whose stroke paralysis cleared up and one who would get rashes if anyone touched her.
She also offered to call my GP to prepare her for how tense I was feeling. (I declined). A large part of the session was her being puzzled at how she could possibly help...
But yeah, in the end she said that maybe the flashbacks want an outside witness (not just me, but another person). I said that I didn't understand that, because I already had a witness when it was happening (my old T). So we spoke a bit more about that and she suddenly started speaking in English when she said that my old T messed up. I called her out (a while back she said that using a different language can often soften the blow) and we laughed a lot and she was like: "ohhh, you always pick up on *everything*! I really cannot tell you stuff, you will always remember!" Haha. Kind of ironic, since my memory also sucks at times. I did feel kind of proud...
Anyway. And then later that day I went to the GP.

A little like a marriage
“Morning Mr. Stark,” Little Jon Umber greeted him from his place at the security desk.
That stopped him dead in his tracks.
“Mr. Stark?” he asked, “Jon we went to high school together. You’ve thrown up on me before.”
Jon cleared his throat, looking around, straightening his tie, then leaned in conspiratorially, “Things have changed around here, Mr. Stark, since you been gone.”
I was gone for a week, he almost said.
He knew it was a mistake, leaving the week the new people came in. But it was Theon’s wedding. Theon’s wedding. He couldn’t miss that, it had been pointed out to him many times.
“Alright then, Mr. Umber, you have yourself a nice day,” he shook his head and scanned his ID, going through the opened gates.
His phone buzzed as he was waiting for the elevator and he answered it, seeing it was Jon.
“Ohhh so you’re alive,” he chuckled.
“Shut up, please,” Jon groaned. “How… I didn’t know four day hangovers existed.”
“You were a delight,” Robb told him and then said, “Though I’d prepare to do some groveling with Sansa.”
“Sansa?” Jon asked. And he could hear him sit up and then groan. “What um… did I do to Sansa?”
“Oh you mean -,” Robb started but stopped talking as a flash of gold caught in his periphery. “Holy shit.”
“Robb what did I do to Sansa?” Jon repeated.
He heard that but he was a little distracted by the person who had just breezed through the security gate, like a door had never been closed to her entire life.
She was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen, and her light eyes flicked to his briefly as she settled in a safe distance from him waiting for the elevator.
“ROBBERT HOSTER STARK WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO TO SANSA,” Jon now yelled in his ear so loudly that the beauty actually turned to look.
Her eyes flashed in recognition before turning away.
“You uh, sort of professed your love to her … and the entire after-party… through song?” Robb told him.
“By the… I…,” Jon stuttered.
“You have a nice voice though, so there’s that,” Robb assured him.
The beauty looked down at her shoes, covering her mouth before a small laugh escaped her. He couldn’t help but grin, too, and the elevator doors opened.
“Look Jon, I’ve got to go,” he said as he gestured to the woman to step in before him. “Meet the new Overlords.”
“Oh fuck, right, that’s today,” Jon said, temporarily brought out of his shame-spiral, “How you feeling?”
“Better than you,” he sighed, “Umber called me Mr. Stark. Bullshit, people who haven’t earned respect always demand shows of it.”
“They can’t all be that bad,” Jon pointed out.
Robb glanced at the beauty again. Are lips like that even found in nature?
“No, maybe not all bad,” he agreed, watching as a blush rose on her cheeks. “Look I’ve got to go, I’m meeting the princess in ten.”
“Okay good luck,” Jon agreed. He was about to hang up when Jon said, “Wait, wait, what song did I sing?”
Robb sighed, wincing, “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough.”
“Both parts?” Jon asked hollowly, like he’d just gotten a flashback and already knew the answer.
“Yeah man,” Robb scratched his cheek, “Both parts.”
He hung up to Jon muttering fuck and glanced at the woman to see if she was smiling again but she was very pointedly not looking at him.
His first mistake. She was likely a Lannister loyalist.
The doors opened and this time she didn’t wait for him to gesture, she just walked out of the elevator ahead of him. Not being on the phone with Jon gave him ample time to look at her butt, as she turned right towards the Lannister side of the office, and he turned left towards the Stark side.
He greeted his coworkers as he walked through, a few of them asking to have conversations later that day, likely wanting to pick his brain about whether they’d be kept around or be considered redundant. He didn’t have the answer to that, that was part of what he was planning to discuss with Myrcella Baratheon.
Myrcella Baratheon. Twenty-six years old and his new boss. It wasn’t so much her age that was the problem, he’d been the boss of men and women significantly older than him when he was younger than her. It was just the idea that she could come up from the South like she owned the place – because technically, she did.
Alys Karstark, one of the Vice President’s, came into his office.
“Alys, I don’t know anything,” he sighed.
“Well obviously, dipshit, you just got here,” Alys noted.
He turned towards her, raising his brow, “I thought everyone was supposed to refer to me as Mr. Stark.”
She rolled her eyes, “You’d hate that. I’m here to tell you what I know.”
He sat on the edge of his desk as she sat on the couch.
“Don’t underestimate her,” Alys told him. “And don’t be taken in by her.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” he asked.
She rolled her eyes, “Trust me, you’ll get it when you meet her. But the point is, she may be polite. She may not peacock around like her uncle. But she is one of them. And she’s got the ear of her grandfather. I actually heard her tease him and he smiled.”
“I wasn’t aware they had updated his software to allow that,” Robb smirked.
Alys laughed, “Look, all I’m saying is –“
“Don’t piss her off,” Robb suggested.
She let out a sigh, and nodded, “Yeah, not pissing of Myrcella Baratheon would be a good idea.”
He looked at her, “You’re not actually worried, are you?”
“Of course I’m worried,” Alys told him. “I’m loyal to the Starks, and you know what happens when there’s a regime change… there’s always someone from the inner circle publicly executed to send a message.”
His stomach churned, because she was right. There hadn’t been any terminations yet, but it was only a matter of time. There always were in mergers, no matter what his Dad had said.
“Well I give you full permission to call me a dipshit out there too,” he tried for levity.
It was his responsibility as a leader. Behind closed doors he could say whatever he wanted, but to his employees he had to be the happy warrior. Their happy warrior.
She smiled but shook her head, “No. I’d rather go down because of loyalty than move up as a traitor.”
He nodded, feeling his eyes smarting and he turned away, straightening his tie.
This was why he’d gotten nearly in a bare-knuckle brawl with his Dad over this decision. These people, their people. All of them loyal, and how had they repaid that loyalty?
By throwing them to the fucking lions.
“Go on, I’ll find you after,” he told her.
She left him on his own and he straightened his tie once again. There was no point bringing anything to the meeting, it was just that. An opportunity to meet his new boss.
Besides, any facts and figures she wanted he could recite by heart. Because they weren’t just facts and figures to him.
He walked out of his office with his head held high, not stopping to look at any one of them, needing to go in with his game face on. He still saw in his periphery the way people stood though and stopped what they’re doing, he shook his head slightly and walked through the elevator banks and crossed behind enemy lines.
There was a receptionist who stood when he entered.
“Mr. Stark,” she greeted him, “I’ll take you to Miss Baratheon’s office.”
“Thank you…,” he started.
“Roslin, Mr. Stark,” she smiled, “Roslin Frey.”
“Thank you, Ms. Frey,” he could play by the rules.
For now.
She lead him through some of the smaller offices until they got to one of the corner ones. Rodrik Cassel’s old office.
“Miss Baratheon, Mr. Stark here to see you,” Roslin said as she knocked lightly on the door.
“Thank you,” a moneyed voice said.
Roslin gave him a smile, tucking her hair behind her ear and then left them to it. He stepped inside and stopped dead in his tracks.
“Please sit down, Mr. Stark,” the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen greeted him, “Or should I call you Robb? I know how you hate those false displays of respect, after all…”

thank you so much for asking this one, god it was so self indulgent i had a brilliant time (as a formerly repressed homosexual, the captain really hits the spot)
so! despite the apparent 'button house curse', the Life of Byron crew manage to stay on- that means 6ish weeks of near constant film action ready to mess with our slightly more repressed season 1 cap (i tried to keep in mind ben willbond's point of "he knows he's different, he's just not sure how yet")
anyways,
the headcanon
the captain continues to mirror adam and follow him everywhere for at least the first week and a half, and i mean everywhere- the man even waits for him outside the loo. for the first few days this goes relatively unnoticed, (a film set is rather exciting!) but one by one the other ghosts enthusiasm fades somewhat, while the captain is still tailing adam like an overeager schoolboy.
initially, the captain is just as fascinated with the filmmaking process as he is with the assistant director himself- despite his initial reservations, he finds the whole operation fascinating- but as the days drag on, it's less about what adam's doing than the fact that it's adam who's doing it.
somewhere around week two, julian makes a side comment referencing the captain's new obsession and while he shrugs it off at first, by the evening it's burrowed into his brain and he's realised what he's doing (or more precisely, the kind of "dangerous folly" that is driving him to do it) and resolves to go cold turkey: no film set, and no adam.
naturally, cap cracks withing two days of this (the rest of button house is terribly dull, and the film crew are virtually everywhere), so he settles for a strict regime. Being a vintage military man, routine and self restraint are what he does best. He allows himself to hang around adam during his lunch breaks and vital shoots only- the rest of the time the captain joins the other ghosts, who quickly resumed their various clubs (after all, it's nice to be around people who can actually hear you & talk back). when they're not having one of their clubs, cap tried to busy himself by helping them out, but his definition of help is somewhat unique (trying to get fanny into exercise was an ~interesting~ endeavour)
on the other hand, what he defines as a 'vital shoot' tends to vary, but he considers it his duty to ensure that adam can do his work undisturbed by the other ghosts. of course, when he's not with adam, he's probably still thinking about him (or talking about him/the set), but as many times as the other ghosts have told the captain that they don't actually need his help and he can go watch with pat and mary, he just laughs them off
by week three or four, things have settled into enough of a routine that alison and the other ghosts are really noticing the captain's crush (one can't help but admire his commitment). alison tries mentioning it to pat- here's a rough scripted version of how i imagine that playing it (all humour intended)
alison: hey pat, can i talk to you for sec?
pat: sure
alison, motioning away from the group: outside
pat: ohhh
pat, whispering: of course
*cut to alison and pat alone by the shed*
pat: so, what can i do for you, alison?
alison: it's about the captain. i'm not sure how to put this but um, well he's been following around the assistant director quite a bit and i was just-
pat, chuckling: that'll be Adam
alison: ????
alison: oh. so you have noticed then?
pat: the AD, his name's adam
pat: we've all noticed! he's all cap's ever interested in nowdays
*a beat*
alison: so is cap-
pat: -that way inclined? between you and me, he's gayer than boy george, but he hasn't quite figured that out yet
alison: so i shouldn't try talk to him about it? i could help him out and give him the old 'love is love, it's the 21st century' speech!
pat: you can try, but cap won't hear anything he's not ready to. i gave it a go a while back- like talking to a brick wall
*flashback to pat and the captain in the east wing. pat was mid sentence, but the captain has just stood bolt upright*
captain, scoffing: i haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about! are you quite sure you're feeling well
pat: i only meant to say that-
captain: no, thank you patrick, that's enough of that i think
*pat goes to talk, but the captain has placed his fingers in his ears and is now singing loudly, apparently*
captain, exiting the room: la la la la la la la la la, i'm afraid i can't hear you! la la la la la-
*pat sighs. end flashback*
the captain continues to make efforts to no homo his adam crush, even when none of the other ghosts are around, so alison realises any head on attempts to lead him out of the closet are going to be pointless
meanwhile, cap's lunches with adam (who usually eats on his own) are getting more and more intimate. he knows adam can't hear him, but cap starts making conversation, telling adam about himself and leaving the appropriate pauses for adam to respond. sometimes he'll sigh or clear his throat or make some noise that almost feels like it could be recognition, and that's enough to almost make it feel real for the captain, but most of the time he just watches adam reviewing his notes and schedules. his handwriting is scrawly and more often than not in all capitals, quite the opposite of the looping cursive the captain was taught, but he finds adam's scratchings in-between the lines of the script endearing. the visual representation of how his mind might work, how the cogs sound as they turn. to be able to get to know that mind, properly, is more than cap could ever ask for, so he learns to be content with the hints hidden in the letters.
the loneliness does begin to set in late at night, when the whole house is asleep and the captain is left reflecting on the day's one sided conversations and a glance that could have almost been in his direction, but he's a military man who has no time for such follies, so the captain hunkers down and represses those feelings (along with the images of adam's biceps in his tight fitting thermals, which come into his head more than the captain would ever be willing to admit). it's one thing to allow himself to indulge in the backflips that his ghostly stomach performs whenever he sees young adam, but another thing entirely to let the man dictate his every thought!
by week six things are wrapping up, and while the captain won't quite admit the extent of his crush, pat and alison have enough sense to treat the departure of adam (and the rest of the crew) as a break up, and julian's been giving fair warning not to make any jokes. break up protocol means no unnecessary references to the crew while cap's within earshot, a wide berth, and alison and pat doing their best to let cap know they see that it's hard for him (without scaring him off by actually telling him they've noticed his near constant pining for the last month and half, although watching cap sitting by adam at the plastic folding tables was strangely endearingly)
it's not the first time since havers that the captain has ever had a crush, and although he's not quite ready to name his feelings, as the trucks pull away and pat and alison sneak caring glances his way, there's a little less shame in him then there used to be.
#aaaaaaaa#i have the funniest but also nice ideas for season 3 cap actually coming to terms with being a big old homo#PLEASE ask me about them#i will preach them to anyone who listens#and will also give him a ghost boyfriend who he can punch nazis with because i think cap deserves as much#bbc ghosts#ghosts bbc#ghosts headcanon#bbc ghosts headcanon#the captain#ben willbond#alison cooper#pat butcher#charlotte richie#jim howick#bbc ghosts one shot#bbc ghosts ask#ghosts ask

Alright, I just finished Destroyer (2018) and a bottle of wine and I have some thoughts about this movie and lots of thots about Chris. Why am I writing this? Why not! I love reading other people's opinions, so here are mine.
Let's get into it!
(if you just want ~800 words of chubby kink brain rot skip to the +++ under the cut)
Thoughts and semi-serious movie review
(I don't know nothing about movies, so this is very subjective, but I'd love to hear your opinions, if you disagree with anything or just have something to add)
First, I went into this film completely blind. I had no idea what this film was about, I only knew that Seb was in it.
It starts off promising. Alcoholic detective who knows more than she lets on, an unidentified body and an old antagonist from our detectives past reappears. Plot is being set up, we get to know Erin, the story advances at a good pace and then 15 minutes in everything grinds to a halt.
The movie is very good at building tension, but has trouble reaching satisfying conclusions. Almost every scene just fizzles out into an anticlimactic or abrupt end. The characters seem static, with no real development apart from a few pieces sprinkles throughout, which makes emotional scenes feel unearned.
The movie drags on through it's 2h runtime. By the end I was honestly wishing for Erin to just die already, which probably wasn’t the intention with this character-driven film. We’re told that she is consumed by anger, but to me she just seemed bored most of the time. Like she was trudging from plot point to plot point.
Most of the characters in this movie felt like less than side characters, even Chris, who’s death is the inciting incident for Erin wanting to get revenge on Silas. Arturo was the only other character that stood out to me, but he only really got to shine in the Russian Roulette scene.
The flashback scene at the end was probably the best part of the movie. Not just because we finally got to see Chris for a bit longer, but because Erin finally has someone to play off of and even though she still seems quite stiff in her acting, this is in my opinion her best performance in the movie. 2/5 stars
"omg Sebastian Stan is so hot in this movie"-review
And now let's talk about Seb's look in this movie, because damn does he look good. Stuff I liked in no particular order:
the beard in the flash backs
the shaved head in the less far back flash backs
smoking. doing drugs! cocaine!!
rings
fake dating?? yes please (giving me ideas)
Seb's fucking silent movie acting, hmm jaw clenching and intense staring (his line delivery wasn't the best in this, but it might've been the phrasing)
"Nice ass." "It's all yours."
the grey sweater
rings
Chris' body language being all loose and open, going with where Erin pulls him, draped all over her back, arm around her waist
hnng Erin pulling down the big sweater and showing of his chest-shoulder-collarbone
+++ (weight gain, belly kink and more feedist nonsense from here on out) +++
that shirt is pretty big on him though, isn't it?
and his jeans are way too loose as well, "Nice ass"?, yeah, it'll be real nice with about fifty more pounds on him, when those jeans look painted on
he could maybe hide his double chin under the beard, but his love handles would be peeking out under the hem of that grey sweater, his belly creasing his waist band where it hangs over it, his lower belly hanging out as soon as he moves his arms and he constantly has to pull his shirt down, otherwise it works its way up until the entire spare tire around his hips is on display
idk if everyone is just short, but Seb looks so tall in this movie, imagine he's so tall that he starts out at 230lbs looking jacked, all brawn, functional strength, low insertion muscles, all stretched out, y'know?
and then he packs on weight, still working, still moving, but putting half the time he used to spend exercises, into eating, he eats what you put in front of him and then some
it's not like it's a burden, eating until he's full and then pushing himself a bit further, but your encouragement and the obvious lust on your face whenever you watch him eat, is an added bonus
when Erin suggests he steal the money with her, he refuses, he's got you and you'd never ask him to risk his life on the off-chance that you might be able to pull this off, so he gets out, back to being an FBI agent, back to you, and finally back to eating what he wants
ohhh he'd thought when you first explained to him how you liked bigger guys that he'd be doing this just for you, settling down, putting on a few pounds, it was probably inevitable anyway, but once you started, once he actually gained weight, he liked it, he really liked it
Chris caught himself sneaking his hand under his sweater to play with the tiny bit of fat that was starting to hang over his waistband
he'd always been confident, but feeling heavier made him feel more powerful, instead of rushing everywhere he took his time, long, unbroken strides, nothing could shake him
he was an excellent fighter, not easily swayed, but they take him out of the field when he gains more weight, he gets out, gets a job as private security instead and keeps gaining
300lbs and he's finally getting a real belly, but you could still see some muscles moving under his ribs when you trailed your fingers over them, he's tall, so all the weight has lots of places to settle
350lbs and his legs are straining aganist his jeans, the fabric between his legs thinning from the constant friction, looking at him you'd guess he was 250lbs, maybe 280lbs
but you didn't care too much about him looking smaller than he was, because when he got on top of you and let you feel all the weight you'd put on him, how heavy he was and you were just struggling to catch your breath with 350lbs of absolute beef cake on top of you, you couldn't really form a single coherent thought
it didn't take long for him to reach 400lbs, and you were all over it, you kept him pinned to the couch by the weight of his stuffed belly every night, riding one of his thick thighs until he'd finally digested just enough, that he could think about anything besides the dull ache in his stomach, you could see his eyes lose some of that hazy fog, his body going from boneless exhaustion to pressing his thigh up into you, matching your rhythm
as much as you loved Chris weighing you down, you had learned the positive sides of being on top of him over the last 50lbs he's gained, he was an impressive man, quietly commanding every room he was in, but you could make him fall apart, come undone beneath you and make him give up all this control
he didn't just do it for you, when you saw his eyes flutter shut and his jaw work to deal with all those overwhelming sensations, you could see him get lost in it, going elsewhere and yet giving himself up even more completely to you
he'd beg for you to touch him, to fuck him, to "please make me come, baby", even though he could easily take all that he wanted from you, he only ever asked for it and how happily you gave it all to him
lotsa text, but he's just too hot in this movie, like you can just imagine undressing him and finding a nice little belly under all those baggy clothes
#rambles#it's almost 5 am#some of this might not make sense but#I love reading this ramble-y type stuff from other people#maybe there's one or two of y'all that do too#might talk about the devil all the time?#write something about Sheriff Bodecker

The Untamed, episode 39 - watching notes
How did this show manage to make me care for these characters in about one episode???
Xue Yang is 100 kinds of creepy
How does he disappear like that? That's a power we haven't seen on this show yet
This whole revenge plot is waaay too convoluted to be only about revenge
Ohoh ... this silence is too ominous
I love how A-Qing still has her rebellious streak, even in death
This is too easy ... he won't die just like this, right?
Holy shit his arm!! 😱😱😱
Um ... sorry but, it's really obvious that the actor just has his arm tugged under his clothes 😅
Whaaaaaaaat???
He's not the guy under the mask???
Who???
Who is that and why does he want the stygian tiger amulet???
I was so sure that that was him
Lan and Jin sword style? I'm wreaking my brain right now who has a strong connection to both, but I'm coming up empty
Oh no, a qing :'(
This is such a brilliant shot! Goosebumps! All over!
And wow
All the awards for song lan's actor 😥
I am ... fascinated by Xue Yang's backstory. Like ... the guy is a goddamn sociopath
With the parallels of his backstory to wwx it's almost like he's wwx without his good heart 😥
So ... all of this is a direct consequence of what happened when they met them in the flashback?
But this isn't how "human affairs" should go or even normally do! Obviously, xue Yang isn't a reliable narrator at all, but all I want to do is wrap Xiao Xingchen in my arms and tell him that not all his good faith in humanity was misplaced 💔
"Stupid, naive, dumb idiots like you, who think the world is a better place just because they did something good!"
But it is!!!! The world on it's own, without humans, isn't inherently good or evil! It is what it is. Good or evil, that's up to us! In the face of the endless indifference of the universe, every act of kindness tips the scale towards a better world!
(Sorry, my atheism is showing)
And that's why I will always have infinitely more respect for the Xiao Xingchens of the world than the cruel and bitter Xue Yangs.
Oh fuck no
No, this will break him, won't it? 😰
Oh no 😭😭😭😭
Oh no
Honey...
"Say something..."
Oh god
Does this show want to set some kind of record for must characters severely traumatised in 50 episodes???
Noooo
No
Fuck
When I wrote that I hadn't seen yet ...
He ... killed himself
I am crying so hard right now and I feel like I haven't even really processed the full tragedy of this arc yet
What is Xue Yang doing?
This is so weird. He honestly looks at Xiao Xingchen like he is a doting husband waiting for him to come home
Ohhh
And now it makes sense that he wanted wwx to restore his soul
And why his soul didn't want to be restored ... because he killed himself. He doesn't want to come back 😥
The way this looks ... that can't be an accident
So NOW he's grieving. Because he can't bring Xiao Xingchen back, can't control him. Xue Yang has such a screwed psychy, it's fascinating ... in a very disturbing way
Wow, he's damaged ...
Oh no ... the candy ... THE CANDY!!!
Holy shit ... what even am I supposed to feel right now? 😨😨😨
Trying to parse that out, I feel like (and this is just my first impressionof thus and my very raw thoughts)... Xiao Xingchen and his kindness they did touch Xue Yang. But he was ill-equipped to deal with whatever feelings they stirred in him, because he had already been so twisted by the world and his own actions. And so he expressed his love the same way he expressed everything: with obsession and the desire to posses and control.
Honestly, I need some more time to really process this ...
They buried A Qing 😭
Oh, Lan Jingyi. I didn't know you had it in you 💚💚💚
Oh god, the Juniors are ALL so soft! 😭
Oh god I want to know so badly. What did Lan Wangji want to say??? "Fortunately... this wasn't us" "Fortunately... you came back to me"? 😭
Omg ... this is a parallel right? From behind they might as well be song lan and Xiao Xingchen!
Oh song lan 💔
The way he takes the pouch 🥺
And Lan Wangji's look. Maybe I'm imagining too much into this but ... if that's not a man intimately aware of what he's going through
"Roam the world. Exorcise evil beings alongside Xingchen."
I can't guys, I'm crying so hard right now 💔💔💔
Holy shit Lan Wangji's actor's performance as he hands him the sword 😭😭😭
IT IS A PARALLEL! 😭😭
look at the screenshot up there again!!
I'm ugly crying so hard right now 😭😭😭
Gimme a moment ...
Tge music in the next scene is really unusual for this show, almost jarring after I've just bawled my eyes out
What is that?
An entrance?
Okay no, not an entrance
Who is that????
Aardgfdgh
The Juniors!!!
The scenery us so pretty :)
Waitwaitwait ... I have a suspicion... no ... nooooo? It can't be ...
The butterfly toy ...
And the comments in the last episode fit, too ... 😳😳😳
OH MY GOOOOOOOD!!!!
The shot of the little flying thing! That's in that restaurant, right??
The comment about remembering stuff from when you're three!
IS HE A YUAN????
@sweetlittlevampire IS HE A YUAN??? 😱😱😱
I'm crying again you guys
Of course he is! It all makes sense
And omg, lan Wangji with the bunny lantern 😭😭😭
And now wwx remembers A Yuan and... the LOOK!!! The song!!! The bunnies!!!
The smile 😭😭😭😭
"Let's buy it" "Okay"
They're a family, you guys!!!! They're a family and I'm ... so ... so emotional!!! 😭😭😭
So much softness between them!!! 💙🖤💙🖤
And wwx smiles as brightly as before this whole mess and ...
Holy shit this episode you guys!!!
First I cry out of sheer devastation and now I feel like my heart is ready to burst!
And it FITS!!!
wangxian got the happy ending Xiao Xingchen and song lan never did. They reunited and even though they spent many years apart they have a real chance now!!!
And this, their child, this is the pay off.
I'm listening to the new album by Nightwish (my favourite band) all the time right now and in their song "How's the heart?" Is this line "now there's one who came from me / A child of light, another tale" and I can't help but think of that right now! The whole song is about how it is worth it, going through the bleak times, fighting through your own darkness because there is light and love at the end of it. It's worth it to keep fighting, just so we can keep meeting others with love. And I can't help but think of little A Yuan/ Lan Sizuhi (and god, I'm almost bursting at the fact that I can write that line!!) As their manifestation of that love. Their "child of light" :')
And even with Xiao Xingchen and Song Lan ... there is this slight hopeful feeling of "we will meet again", if not in this life than in the next ...
Guys, I'm so emotional right now
Sorry for the tengant. It probably doesnt make much sense put in writing 💚
I'm so sad and so happy at the same time ... :')
Oh god, lan Wangji with the lantern is so unimaginably cute!!!
And they gave it to Lan Sizhui!!!
SYMBOLISM!! 😭😭😭
Now, this should be interesting
How much does lan Xichen even know at this point?
Ohhh! That was nie Mingjue in the coffin earlier!
Why is he buried in Yi City???
I'm so confused right now!
(But don't tell me the answers. As always, these are rhetorical questions ;))
Ohhh ...
I have a suspicion about the ghost faced man
And apparently I'm not the only one
He has been "discussing" things with you every single night. Aha 😏
Sorry, this is serious 😬
(This has nothing to do with anything but I paused the stream to type and this was the image I got. I thought i should share :D)
Lan Xichen is so deep in denial
Poor guy
And again with the parallels! There is another Lan who has stuck to someone with a bad reputation and he's standing right there
And jin ling is conveniently reminding us of that 😐
So much drama
OMG!
That was smooth!
No, I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!
Just, "Wei-gongze" :D
"Don't take it to heart"
MY HEART!!!
I feel like Lan Wangji isn't the only Lan who will suffer an aneurysm from repressed emotions one day
@sweetlittlevampire @fandom-glazed @elenirlachlagos @allhailthedramallama @luckymoony @kyrrahbird @i-love-him-on-purpose and @sxnshot (should I tag you again next ep? No hard feelings if not 😊)
Honestly, this ep was the most emotional one for me so far in terms of the whiplash from pain and joy it gave me, though I certainly cried harder at the Yunmeng massacre. The prevailing emotion is joy now, though. I am such a sucker for mismatched, found families and wangxian and their child of light isn't exactly that, I don't know what is. I'm going to sleep with a smile on my face now. 💚

If this Bruce doesn't adopt Tim I will! But I'm kinda scared for Tim I mean he's either gonna end up with Buce or the titans at some point, im afraid that something terrible is gonna happen his family and then titans/bruce takes him in? That boy loves batman and robin so much like even his family seeing the news knew how much it would upset him although I will say that for the brain that kid has he makes some pretty stupid decisions, hes driving around GOTHAM plastered in the bat-symbol that's not a good idea! the amount of lunatics that roam free in Gotham (and possibly have escaped from arkham) and hate the bat and hes driving around with the bat symbol on him KID be careful!
Some kind of Anti-fear toxin does seem more accurate cuz he's clearly taking something to not be afraid. Maybe it's something he found in Gotham and decided to try it and got addicted so he's using that lab place to try recreate it? and maybe he can't recreate it perfectly cuz in the crowbarring scene he seemed kinda anxious about his surroundings and he'd just taken that inhaler thing to overcome fear so I dunno?? Or maybe he went to arkham to see Crane for some reason and Crane has orchestrated the whole thing and told him about the drug but then wouldn't Crane have to know everyone's identity then? Dude I dunno I need more episodes even tho the low quality glitchyness is painful lol
There's probably an abundance of rooms to choose from at Wayne manor yet Jason takes Dicks old room and keeps the flying graysons posters up! I like to think that he does view dick as an older brother and just took his room to kind of have a connection to him and that he admires him hence the graysons posters being left up, yooo dick calling him his brother! I really want a nice family reunion with dick jason and bruce 💕
Babs was too mean to bruce when she went off like I get where she's coming from but yo lady his son just died dial it down like a notch yikes but also babs being like 'i wonder how long it'll take for bruce to replace jason and dick is all 'what no the last thing bruce is gonna do is rope another kid into this mess'. Cut to scene of Bruces potential robin folder 😅 but I also like that dick was trying to be considerate and compose himself for bruce but once he found out that bruce is idiot enough to pull another kid into this, that that's when he got mad and bruce so brokenly begging dick to come back and be robin 😢😢😢
I know the show is constantly trying to push bruce out/sideline him cuz it's a titans show not a bruce wayne show and I know they're going for a different portrayal of bruce which I'm not complaining about I do like this version of bruce (more than I thought actually) and this universe but I feel like they could have gave more cracks you know, I like that they showed him trying to avoid the reality of jasons death and just not stopping not even for a second and just immediately jump into another case and that breakdown verge where he's begging dick to be robin and then when he finally I guess let's the weight of jasons loss sit on him to the point where he whacks in jokers head with a crowbar just like he killed jason (he could have killed joker so many other ways like a less violent bullet to the head but oh no brucey crowbars him to death!!)
There's a lot of character stuff that i do like but that scene where he's in the cave on his knees scrubbing his sons blood out of the suit he died in, the suit that he only ever wore because of batman. 😢 I feel like they could have had him crack there and let out a gut wrenching scream and then just continue on doing what he was doing as if nothing happened and dick walking in on that should have had more of a reaction!? like he could have stopped in his tracks at the sight of his brothers blood all over his father and bruce screaming, dick could have like took a step back almost like he's gonna run but forces himself to stay there, because who wouldn't want to run from that and no matter how much horrible things you've dealt with before sometimes your brain does just take over against your will and makes you react, the rest of the scene just could have played out the way it did. Literally one ounce more emotion is all I wanted.
No one really emotionally cracked at jasons death. I get that it just happened and that people put walls up and denial can be such a prominent thing when a loved one dies but it couldn't have been that difficult to put in little mannerisms now and again to show that everyone is deeply hurt but holding it in. Honestly gar seemed more hurt to me than dick did. But I do like that dick reacted in detective mode and started trying to figure things out from jasons side so at least there's that.
This redhood is defo not an anti hero he has well and truly landslided into villian territory and I dunno how that's gonna be reconciled? they better not kill him off! and they better not just straight up keep redhood/jason as a full on villian! but if they do get through to jason and bring him back a little how the heck is that little man gonna deal with what he did to Hank?? I feel like they had a bond you know and for all Hanks talk about putting Jason down I really don't think that Hank would actually have killed him even if it came down to Hanks life vs Jasons I think Hank would rather die than kill Jason (but that's heavily biased cuz in my mind jason is my son and I freaking love hank sooo) but Hank to me puts on a hard front like 'yeah I'll get in your face I'll come at you b*tch' but internally he's like 'yeah I'll come at you to help you' 😅 like internally he defo has a lot of soft spots though that's not to say he'd be like this for someone like the joker or scarecrow or whatever guys like that he'd be like no screw you you die or go to arkham like byeee
Nevermind how jason is gonna come back from this though HOW IN THE ACTUAL SH*T is dawn gonna come back from this!!?!!
Random side note here but imagine Jasons first time in the batcave he would be so excited and trying to mess with everything and being like ohh what's that do and pressing random buttons and bruce having a hernia trying to get jason to stop before he accidentally blows the cave up 😅 also he has probably been caught several times trying to 'borrow' the batmobile, I can just picture him trying to sneak down the halls of the manor without the floor creaking and making it all the way into the cave and doing a victory dance cuz he didn't get caught and he hops on into the batmobile in his pj's and let's out a scream cuz alfred is sitting in the freakin passenger seat waiting for him and then they just hang out in the batmobile alfred had the good foresight to bring a flask of tea books and a blanket for jason
Speaking of Alfred I think it would have been more angsty and hurtful if Alfred died shortly after Jason and after a few days Jason claws his way out his grave and the first thing he sees is Alfreds headstone and that's how he finds out Alfred died : (((
This is so long girl I'm sorry I know it doesn't seem like it but I did restrain myself 😅 one more thing before I go maybe this Dick is the absolute worst mf and the reason babs feels betrayed by him and is so upset with him could be that he left her (or cheated on her) with Dawn cuz of that weird flashback thingy in the other season where dick dawn was a thing I dunno I hope not though that would be ughhh
Oh crap, you right about probably something bad will happen to Tim for Bruce or Titans to take him in, I was gonna say he could just demand to be in their lives to save Bruce/Dick like in the comics but he also has kinda shitty parents normally and these people seem cool so really it could go either direction, but like it’s Titans so it doesn’t look good lol. Also, I wonder if it’s gonna be Dick who is basically gonna adopt him this time since we already had a huge track record in just 2 seasons lmao. But I know right, true I like how his parents knew immediately how much the news would effect him 😭 I hope he goes down the making himself robin and forcing himself in Dick and Bruce’s life xD I love that route. Lmao, the kid is all book smart, very little street smart when it doesn’t have to do with outsmarting someone XD
I was also rewatching and that gas he takes def has to be some anti fear toxin cause he mentions fear so many times and flash backed to his near death fall, which he felt was probably holding him and back and thus had to prove himself and adds to whatever is influencing him. But ohhh he did seem pretty dang anxious at the carnival grounds, that’s a really interesting theory but recreating something he found hmm, I can see that.
Apparently according to a YouTube who got to see the first 5 episodes, we find out what his deal is a lot more in episode 5, so one more week hopefully
Brooo trueee, I couldn’t believe jason took dick’s room and like didn’t even change anything. Like Jason looks or at least use to look up to Dick SO much, like in his first episode in the first season, he went on quite a lot about how much he had always wanted to meet him and how much he looked up to him, which is probably also fueling his red hood rage, being hurt by your idol and brother like he did in S2 must have really just killed the boy. But yes omg, there freaking better be a dang family reunion scene like, after so much angst we deserve that 😭
And yesss, I loved seeing how mature Dick is getting and just how much he is growing as a character, the fact he was so calm and considerate with Bruce at first really shows that compared to s1 Dick, only breaking when Bruce tried to get more kids involved. That scene by Brenton was sooo well acted omg, the way he yelled that he doesn’t want to robin again, heartbreaking man. And Bruce begging like that omg
Yeah, this version of Bruce is def so different than any Bruce we have seen on screen before, like def the most emotionally constipated, and that’s saying something xD But I like how they are taking a risk, it also helps Dick’s character more and give him more of an arc, as he seems to be taking on Bruce’s normal role with Jason and red hood. Bro, you are so right omg, like the fact Bruce could have killed the joker in any way and he does it with the dang crowbar. It really shows how broken he really was and why the man shouldn’t depressing any and every damn feeling and emotion lol.
Omg, I love how you have the exact details of what you wanted to happen in that one Bruce and Dick scene 😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 bro if you dont already you should totally write fanfics cause that was so detailed, I love it
Yeah, I do wish someone cracked (other than Bruce lmao) a bit more, but I do think each character reacted in character though, like it is very Dick(at least this version of Dick, other versions may break down tbh) to put everything into solving the case and figuring out what was up, that’s more this version’s way of caring than just breaking down, like he rarely ever has broken down completely. I think dawn could have been a little more emotional about the death (tho she has enough coming for her lmao). Connor didn’t know Jason that well so it makes sense he would just be sad. Gar seemed pretty sad and in character about it, maybe could have had a bit more, same with Kori, tho she showed it by being almost angry and fiercely protective of everyone else, so I think that makes sense for her. It would have been interesting to see how Rachel and Rose would have reacted though (where did rose go btw?! She would so have a reaction to Jason’s death). But yeah, i wish there was more resolution and break downs for Jason, but also it may have just not felt real since they weren’t there? But I agree
You think? Idk, I think they could def still make him an anti hero towards the end, especially if it’s crane behind the whole thing. Cause if they don’t they are gonna have to go down the gosh awful overused villain gets redeemed while he dies/only to die right freaking after , and I will be so freaking livid if they do that omg. Like they better freaking not. But true, he would be broken by what he did to Hank, oh yikes. But I can see him then that leading to the anti hero path, like he would never go back to be on the titans cause he would feel too guilty, thus giving more of a reason for the anti hero life. But I know, I loved Jason and Hank’s love hate relationship 😭😭😭😭 You know Hank secretly loved the kid and probably saw himself in him.
Yikes poor dawn, you right. Like I have no idea how she is gonna be now like wow.
OMG GIRL, You are on a hc angst train today!!!! That scenario of Alfred dying right after jason and Jason climbing out to see Alfred’s?! Heartbreaking!
But I can’t believe they killed Alfred off so casually tho😭
Omg I swear if they freaking show Dick having cheated on Babs I will be so freaking pissed omg, he better have not! Im hoping they had a more high school romance thing/grew up together then got together type of thing
And omg don’t apologize I LOVED IT and reading your asks!!! I feel ya too!

Rule The World with Me-
Ivar the Boneless × Reader
Chapter Thirty-One is here...
Chapter Thirty-Two: Little Baldur
Word Count 1,070
Warnings: fluff
____________________________________
It has taken you almost two full weeks for you to be able to walk. Ivar and Hvitserk have taken amazing care of Baldur while you stayed in bed and rested. All you could do is hold your son only while you breastfed him, then they took him away from you because they didn't want you to drop him from being so weak.
Today, Ivar helped you out of bed and you took your first few steps since giving birth.
Ivar "How does that feel Y/n?"
"Sore but I can do this.." he let go of your hand and Hvitserk held your baby across the room so you had to walk to get to him.
Hvitserk "Is that your momma?" He waves Baldur's hand in the air and you hear his cute little noises. Giving you all the strength that you needed to walk. Once you get to him, Hvitserk places him in your arms and kisses your forehead.
"Ohhh you are so perfect. My little Baldur." Ivar walks up to you and wraps his arms around you. He makes cooing noises to try to make his son laugh.
Hvitserk "You did good, sweetheart."
"No I didn't but thank you."
Hvitserk "You did do good Y/n. Don't ever think that you didn't. Look how perfect he is!" You chuckle but then you start to get flashbacks of that night.
You woke up in immense pain and saw that you were bleeding profusely. You feared that you were having a miscarriage. It is a miracle that Ivar didn't lose the both of you. You try to get those thoughts out of your head and just focus on your perfect little baby in your arms.
Ivar kisses your cheek and whispers.
Ivar "I am so proud of you baby girl. I love you so much."
"And I love you."
Hvitserk watches you two gush over your newborn with a huge smile on his face. He is so happy for the both of you, especially for his brother. He feared that he could never be a father but now here he is today, a father to a healthy baby boy. A true miracle. He will always be there for his family. Through the good and through the bad he will be there for it all, he swears it on his arm ring.
__________________________
Your baby is wrapped in your arms in a white baby blanket. You sit on your throne and rock him back and forth. Messiah keeps trying to lick his cheeks and it is the most adorable thing in the world.
Hvitserk "Do you want me to take him?"
"No, I want to soak up every little moment in his life. I have already missed his first few."
Ivar "Now that wasn't your fault, princess."
"Yeah, I just wish that it could have been different."
Ivar "Honestly me too, darling. That was horrific but you both are sitting next to me today and for that I am grateful." He reaches over and grabs your hand to kiss your wedding ring.
Hvitserk "You both are very strong. Stronger than anyone else I have ever met."
"That's what Ivar said to me but I don't feel that way Hvitserk. I almost had a miscarriage and I almost died after delivery...how am I strong?!"
Hvitserk "Because you didn't. Y/n you lived and your baby lived...why are you thinking about what almost happened?"
"Because it was the scariest thing to ever happen to me, brother." Ivar looks over at you and tries to be strong for his wife.
Ivar "I know that it was scary, my love. But you made it through and you are just fine."
"All I know is after I am completely healed, no one is stopping me. No man, woman, kingdom whatever….the world will remember me when it is my time to feast with Odin in Valhalla. "
Ivar "Oh they will, my queen."
….
You place Baldur in his bassinet and you and Ivar climb into bed. You watch Messiah's every move with focused eyes. He walks over to him and sniffs the whole area. You hear your child's coos and can see his little limbs flinging in the air. Then Messiah licks his little hands and then lays down and rests his head at the bottom of the bassinet. You grab Ivar's shirt in amazement.
"He loves him Ivar, look at that!" You whisper in a yelling manner.
Ivar "My plan worked perfectly, kitten. This is what I wanted for the both of you, a strong protector that will keep you safe."
"He does. That day when Thora came does not count, she hurt him to place him in that bathroom...he tried to dig his way out."
Ivar "I know sweetheart. You should have seen him while you were in bed. When I walked out to take a break, Hvitserk was holding down to keep him from running back into the room. He wanted to help you so badly.."
"I know, I remember bits and pieces of that day. It is all kind of a blur at the end."
Ivar "that is kind of a blessing, darling. It was a rough couple of hours. You kept trying to take your bandage off because it was so painful, I had to hold you to keep you calm."
"I am sorry. I haven't been a strong wife for you-"
Ivar "Oh don't you dare! You are the best wife a king could ever ask for. You cannot help the things that people have done to you. Your first husband was a brute and Thora was a jealous bitch...don't ever tell me that you aren't a strong wife when you gave birth to my son a month early and almost made it to Valhalla. You are the strongest warrior I have ever met."
"Okay. I love you."
Ivar "I love you too, beautiful. How about when you wake in the morning, I'll take you to your favorite place in the tree line. How does that sound huh?"
"Amazing. Can we take Baldur and Messiah?"
Ivar "Well that is a given, princess. Kiss?"
You giggle and kiss your husband's lips and fall asleep in his arms. Ivar is the best king and husband you could have ever wished for. The gods gave it to you rough in the beginning but they have truly blessed you today.

Symphogear, EP. 6
Last Time on Grand Theft Auto:
Tsubasa recovers from the world’s gayest coma as Hibiki trains her mind while putting aside such silly concepts as “the love of my life” and “literally being with my girlfriend.” After cooling Miku’s paranoia with her brand new washboard abs, Genjuro prepares the team for a pizza run across the city to deliver a dangerously hot pizza pie named Durandal. Chaos emerges as the delivery is intercepted by a rival pizza gang, lead by the nefarious Gremlin known as Yukine Chris. But, before the pizza could be claimed, dedicated pizza deliverywoman Hibiki not only steals it back, but eats it, harnessing the power of the pizza and unleashing cheesy pasta based chaos around the location.
Ryoko is so into it that she taps into her superpowers and protects Hibiki after she passes out. The delivery is considered a failure, and no tip is given.
And so, the journey continues...
Meanwhile, in this weird, tricked out mansion...
Chris meditates on some water metaphors of her own.
“that pacman colored freak took only touching it to activate a cheap ass french sword that gave her weird demon powers and its taken me YEARS to use this dumb stripper outfit and the funny cane that goes with it, what the FUCK man, what even is my life”
“maybe... maybe honeybaked hams ARE that powerful...”
“NO! turkey is the superior meat! it’s healthier, lower in fat, and way more tasty! fuck you! i’ll get my goddamned revenge!”
Chris begins musing about Fine’s motivations to capture Hibiki; during these, we’re treated to some brief image flashbacks of Chris’s life.
Suddenly, those jokes about food are a lot less funny.
It doesn’t take a genius to put two and two together as to why this young woman is helping a strange nudist dominatrix spread alien terror across the city of mumblednoises, Japan. She doesn’t really have many an option on the table. It’s either help the weird kinkster with her plans, or die.
Despite everything, she has a high opinion of Fine, for the same reasons someone might have a high opinion of a television show if it were the only show they were ever exposed to. She is deeply afraid of being alone again, because she has lived through such misery that the very thought of existing out in the cold again terrifies the shit out of her.
The Sun rises casually amidst Chris’s thoughts.
“ah shit. it just hit me. i literally have spent the entire night standing here instead of actually going the fuck to sleep. goddamnit.”
On such a devious metaphorical twist, Fine stands behind her as the Sun rises.
“yeah, jokes on you. i couldnt sleep for shit either. turns out, all nude, no blankets? in japan? real bad idea.”
“thats why i decided to GO GOTH, babey! whattaya think? do i give those witchy vibes, huh? real ‘black magic woman’ santana hours? feeling cute, gonna head out with the girls and summon satan in the woods kinda aesthetic looking shit? come on, be real with me. does this not look baller?”
“you look like morticia decided to go to the grocery store to buy some wonder bread, but other than that, its a step up from your usual pussy out attitude, so sure”
“you know i decided to get some brain cells on loan from Brain Cells R Us, and ive been thinking this solomon cane stuff is solomon lame. i dont need this dumb oversized harry potter cosplay prop to get shit done. also, murder is... sorta bad? im still trying to get the brain cell stuff down.”
“i can punch just as good as goody two shoes if not better.”
“lol go do it then champ, im gonna go cut down a forest of trees now”
And so, they both just kinda... stand there.
“QUACK, NEXT SCENE, QUACK”
Meanwhile, Tsubasa is rapidly trying to rehabilitate herself from her wounds like walking like a madman, her IV drip presumably filled with Taco Bell brand Doritos Locos Tacos super spicy nacho cheese. Taco Bell: Live Mas.
“im gonna clear every fucking taco bell in your goddamned memory, kanade”
“think outside the bun! wait, what? that was a taco bell slogan? ah fuck it, im dead. what nerd’s gonna try and correct me?”
“i would, kanade. i am that nerd.”
Tsubasa is hell bent to try and understand Kanade’s simple philosophy of helping others selflessly. Unfortunately, when Kanade died, she took all the brain cells between them in the process, so coming to this epiphany is a work in progress.
“listen its a fucking miracle you are 1. alive and 2. able to have your blood run on the garbage melted plastic taco bell tries to dupe people into believing is cheese so why dont you just lie down and think of better franchises to eat from”
“no! you dont understand! taco bell is a franchise of the PEOPLE! their meals are cheap and filling and- and the chicken quesadillas are of good quality for their price! i promised kanade- my vow to the death. taco bell... ergh... now and forever... i-”
“wait. my gay senses are tingling.”
It’s Hibiki, probably running track with Miku.
“oh yeah... her... i should probably apologize to her. about trying to kill her. and then letting her almost be kidnapped. and just giving her a general hard time about something that wasn’t explained to her in the slightest for months. she’s a good bean.”
Tsubasa proceeds to never canonically apologize to Hibiki throughout the entirety of all 4 seasons of Symphogear.
Look at em run. See, it’s a metaphor, because they haven’t communicated yet and they’re running from their problems! But they’re running towards Tsubasa, who is part of the representative problem these two share! Clearly literary genius.
It’s like someone went halfway into writing an NTR plotline and went “maybe this isn’t a good idea to market our songs on.”
Hibiki is still thinking about her Hellshake Yano moment with Durandal. Mainly how she nearly killed someone with it. Hibiki is very starkly in the “killing is bad, and wrong” camp of morality, a trait currently unique to her that she’ll wind up teaching literally everyone else she meets one way or another.
Some could argue the L stands for Lydian, and they’re wrong. It stands for Lesbian.
“that was one hell of a run, hibiki! im pooped! why dont we go to the locker room and call it a day, have a nice shower and just get some dinn-”
“this is the last straw.
i clean your plates. i cook your food. we eat, shit, shower, and sleep in the same FUCKING area, and this is how you repay me? huh? you think being your wife is easy shit, hibiki? half the damn time you’re running off like clark kent having food poisoning and the other half ive gotta babysit you, the emotional equivalent of a preteen clown, to make sure your life doesn’t self destruct harder than Atlantis sinking into the ocean. im done! i am DONE. im reopening my tinder, im slamming my ass BACK into okcupid, and im gonna date some CUTE ACADEMY GIRLS that treat me BETTER than this ABSOLUTE BETRAYAL OF HEART AND IM NOT CRYING I SWEAR ITS JUST THE SWEAT IN MY EYES AND HIBIKI HOW COULD YOU-”
“oh yeah, sure! hey, lemme just do a few more laps, ive just been feeling judgmental about myself and my figure, you know? gotta push myself further...”
“o-oh yeah, sure. no worries, ill wait for you. love you too, hibiki...”
The girls bathe together, as good friends typically do.
“hey you ever notice the showers here have like, weird psuedo-luxurious minipools to bathe in? like, how rich is this school?”
“whoever made this place is either rich or a pervert. or both, probably!”
Miku remarks that Hibiki has changed since she’s entered Lydian, in a manner most unheterosexual.
“oh FUCK you really DO have washboard abs now! ohhh my god.”
“damn, those abs were heavenly. let’s get pancakes later.”
I won’t screenshot it but something to note is that they actually wear each other’s corresponding underwear colors (or even, if you want to examine more closely, each other’s underwear). Here’s an equivalent scene to give you the mental image.
This is the face of someone who knows what they want and already have it. Such is the power of Kohinata Miku.
Meanwhile, Genjuro comes back from the funeral of the guy the Americans filled violently and with impunity.
“yo that all black look looks baller. i should borrow that look... id look pretty gothy in it.”
“ryoko i sympathize with your sharp, fashionista eye but this was for a funeral, i was paying my respects to the dead. thats the usual dress code.”
“didnt know they updated that. i remember back in my day, we just went in white garments and chanted in latin!”
“shit was fire. literally. lots of funeral pyres.”
“lmao ryoko buddy your larping sessions arent actual history”
“hey dont shit on larping around me. i used to be a professional larper while i was majoring in acting. helped really sell my career when i had to pretend to slay the Dark Lord Jyarloen atop the mountain of skulls in Hargobor after my family was killed by the Dark Army. asshole.”
“haha yeah, larping, thats cool yeah, i do that
i...
i larp.”
“oh yeah? you wanna join my larping session sometime then? we’re gonna do an ancient babylon plot thats inspired by some anime, itll be fun”
“.....................................im super into realism.”
“i know im dressed for a funeral but id like to not part ways with my dignity yet. besides, we’ve got serious shit to talk about. basically, we’re on the verge of getting shitcanned.”
As it turns out, the death of this politician removed the last obstacle of opposition to maintain the 2nd Division, as the average criticism against the 2nd Division is “why are we funding this mystery division when we don’t know what they do”. Of course, the sensible idea for an organization that defeats the Noise is to declassify it, given people of different jobs and positions have physically seen the Symphogear in action, but you know. “Oh no, the other governments will come after us” stick gets shaken.
“im in a union. i know my rights. you’re not taking my acting job here away from me.”
“im not going back to be a preschool teacher. its been ten year. the bites on my ankles still havent healed...”
“yeah man, shit sucks ass. i cant fund my adoption habits if im fired.”
Look at these cinematic parallels. Symphogear truly is a franchise made by someone living in 3030.
“worst part is the new minister is super into america. he’s a... westaboo.”
“a westaboo?”
“westaboo?”
“did he just unironically say westaboo”
“he said westaboo. oh my god. this is the hell timeline.”
“i mean people kept calling me that for worshipping all these fighting flicks so i guess it fit? i dont see the problem here”
Meanwhile, in Lydian Academy...
“so it hit me, right? we’re ALL girls. and we ALL sing. now, humor me a moment. what if... what if we’ve all been recruited to potentially be superheroes... through our singing? like, there’s no coincidence that all this shit happens around us, right? and a famous singer LIVES here? i saw the black cars outside! weird shit is happening here- im not even gonna eat the all you can eat bar anymore!”
“kathy there is literally no such thing as superheroes who sing. this place is more likely to be a organ harvesting op than whatever madness you’re saying”
“what? you need me, a singing superhero, to go stop a problem happening underneath the school, a location meant to recruit young women into potentially becoming fellow crime fighting singers?”
“yeah im too busy poppin’ caps in asses so go kick ass in my place”
“sure!”
“.....................................who ya talkin to, hibiki?”
“the boss! gotta go do a thing again...”
“hibiki, i dont like the fact that capitalism is tearing us apart.”
“you’ve gotta join me in the revolution, hibiki. you. me. luxury automated gay space communism. aint it the dream? share my vision, hibiki. its glorious.”
“n... no...? no gay space communism today? well, what about tomorrow? or the next day? or... maybe the next day? baby steps, you say? but, direction action, hibiki! we’ve gotta strike now!”
“it’s okay hibiki. when i take over the world and destroy all first world government leaders, and unite the globe in my encompassing reign and love... ill make sure to spare you, and be my bride to be.”
“thanks miku. im just not ready yet for the globe to burn in an unending ball of fire as the continents fuse into a new utopia composed of our combined wills. also, ive really gotta go, its genuinely an emergency.”
“for the cause!”
“yes hibiki... for the cause...”
Admittedly, you can see the stages of grief Miku goes through when she sees Hibiki say she can’t join her for pancakes. It’s sad. This side story sucks.
Meanwhile, as it turns out, the problem Hibiki needed to resolve was checking on Tsubasa to see if she hadn’t dissolved into Taco Bell brand hot n’ spicy Tabasco sauce.
“god, cant believe taco bell was closed. now i gotta deliver these lame ass flowers”
“cant wait to get threatened again. wonder what she’ll say. ‘hibiki, i should have killed you when i had the chance.’ or ‘you’re so goddamned weak. i could break your spine with my fingernail’, or some other stuff about metaphors. oh, my stops here”
“HEY BITCH WHATS GOOD-”
“HOLY SHIT”
“you are already”
“dead.”

Episode 15: The Dinner (Part 3)
"No. I'll go."
We looked over to see Aaron in the main archway looking slightly disheveled but composed. He sat down next to Lin. He stared at Nathan and then Mr. Jones. "I will like to apologize for my absence, Luther. I decided to come back out of respect for our guest."
"I was just about to ask about you. I'm glad you can join us," Jones said smiling.
"So it's storytime? Delightful," he said slurring slightly with his posh accent. "Well, I'm a doctor obviously.
“More like a quack,” Lin snorted.
He frowned at her but continued. “As I was saying I worked at a hospital and was asked to aid in the crisis involving the dead. Patient after patient coming down with some horrible disease. It was horrifying, I offered to help out with the army to set up a sanctuary in an abandoned asylum. Where I met you all. But I know you’re curious about what happened earlier. About that letter."
“Aaron, you don't have to,” Maidson said quietly.
“It’s fine. I did have a wife and I had a child on the way actually. I can't say that didn't love her, but I was going through the motions and wasn’t being very honest with myself or her. When I heard she was with child, I planned to break off things with a colleague I was seeing. A colleague I was having an affair with. His name was Alexander or Alex. He was a kind soul. Thoughtful. Smart. I didn’t want to break his heart, but I owe my wife that much. She was having my child for christ sakes! But the day I ended things with him was the day the hospital became overrun with the dead. The last thing he gave to me was that letter and the last thing I said to him was I didn’t want to see him anymore. You can imagine how that makes me feel. How that letter is valuable to me.
Well, now you know something that even my mother didn’t know about me. Now you know part of the reason why I drink.”
“That’s actually really touching, Aaron,” Lin said genuinely stunned.
“I guess so,” he said shrugging. He pulled out a flask emptying the contents in his mouth and placed it back in his pocket. “Anyway, it appears I need a refill. So enough about me. How about the next person go, so I can carry on drinking.”
I looked from one to the other. Their eyes zeroed on me again. I knew my time was up.
Audrey reached across the table and touched my hand. She smiled and whispered, “Tell the truth.”
I sighed, sat up, and cleared my throat. “I wasn’t a good guy. What I might say may change your opinion of me and that’s fine, but know I’m not that man I use to be.”
They all shared concerning looks but paid close attention to me now.
“I was also a thief. I was also a convicted felon. I spent a lot of my life in prison for dumb shit. I stole from people’s houses, assaulted people, and booted cars for a living. I was addicted to the fast money and the thrill of it all. Got even worse when I became a father. Couldn’t exactly get an honest job to take care of her you know. Not when you got a record,” I said as the total silence in the room was deafening.
“Anyway, just before this shit went down I was wrongly convicted for a murder I didn’t do. I was able to break out of jail thanks to the dead taking over the prison. Lucky me huh? Crazy thing is I ended up traveling with the cop who framed me and an actual murderer. I wouldn’t even be here if it wasn’t for Audrey with the luck I’ve had, but I know what you’re thinking. I know I can’t get this stench off of me. Even in the fucking apocalypse, but I swear...”
“So you’re a convicted felon?!” Matthew gasped.
“Oh, here we go.”
“You..you...we can’t trust you!” he stammered angrily rising up to his feet immediately.
Madison stood up and blocked him shielding me from him. “Matthew. Please.”
“He’s a convicted murderer!”
“Wrongly convicted and he didn’t have to tell us that. He could have lied!”
Matthew fumed. “Wrongly accused. Ha! He could be lying now. He’s dangerous!”
“I’m not lying!”
I stood up and looked past Madison. It was then I felt Audrey behind me grabbing my arm. She tugged at it trying to pull me away, but the two of us weren’t letting up. Our eyes locked on each other ready to shed blood if need be. Only Madison was keeping us from throwing blows. She stood helplessly between us trying to keep us both away from each other. She looked strangely tiny as she stuck out her arms trying to distance us. I glanced over to see the rest of the table was now standing. Luther remained seated, but they all seemed to be talking all at once. Their cries all mixing together as they appeared to be pleading for us to stop as well.
The only person who seemed to be egging it on was Wade. He marched over to Matthew’s side and glared at me. A pure look of disgust graced his face.
He then shook his head and folded his arms. “I knew it. You’re probably one of the Cartel aren’t you?”
I scowled. “No, you racist shit!”
“Please stop this!” Audrey cried grasping my arm for dear life. “He’s not dangerous. He’s a good man! He saved my life. He literally went through a burning building to save me. I swear!”
“I believe her!” Madison cried. “Please.”
“So this is how you treat me? After I kept your fucking secret,” I spat turning back to Matthew. A smug smile then graced my face as I realized what I was saying. He seemed to catch on and he suddenly looked terrified. I continued. “So, Wade, since you want to open your big ass mouth, did anyone tell you that we didn’t get any gasoline? Not one drop? I’m sure Matthew told you. Ohhh, we weren't supposed to tell you till we scrounged some up, so you wouldn’t bitch about it!”
“What?” he gasped wide-eyed.
“And Madison, do you know what your little boyfriend here told me not to tell you?”
She turned her attention to me confused. “Huh?”
“He’s lying!”
“We found a walker on a stake that looked remarkably like you. Also found a message.”
“Wait! What?”
“The message said, “We’re watching you! Was written in blood on the wall of the gas station when went we back, but you’re not supposed to know that! No one is. Now, who’s the trustworthy one now?”
Madison backed away wide-eyed from Matthew then. She looked completely shocked. The color almost looked to be draining from her face.
“I..I was protecting you,” he stuttered. He stepped towards her softening his voice. “I was going to tell you...”
This didn’t calm her. Not one ounce. With a flash, her hand connected with his face and slapped him. He stumbled backwards and grabbed his cheek.
Wade who stood behind him pushed him as he bumped into him. He balled up his right fist and raised it as if to hit him, but put it down thinking twice. He then joined the rest of the household who stood quietly on the sidelines now staring at us like spectators. A mixture of shock and disappointment flashing upon their faces.
“I...I trusted you!” Madison howled. “How could you? This endangers me. It endangers us all. How could you keep this from me? From us?"
Matthew said nothing. The room was completely silent. You could almost hear a pin drop. Then I jumped feeling something on my leg. I looked down to see a cat. A white cat. Audrey had mentioned it, but I stared down at it perplexed by its presence. It meowed and walked over to the glass door. My eyes were drawn to it while everyone else seemed to be in a trance staring at Matthew as he stumbled over his words trying to explain himself.
I watched the cat paw at the glass. It eyes focused on something outside. Grace then spotted the cat too. She walked over to it pushing pass Matthew and she bent down to retrieve it. As she bent down to pick it up, something bumped into the door loudly. It was so loud we all jumped and I though the glass had broken. Audrey practically leaped into my arms from just the sound.
I looked up and away from the cat to see a corpse staring in now. He clawed at the glass door and loudly banged his head on it again making a thin crack. The cat sat down and continued to paw at the now blood-smeared glass. Everyone seemed to be fully aware of the cat and the corpse now. They gather at the door looking positively frightened.
DJ quickly came over looking dumbfounded as stared at it.
“I’ll take care of it,” he said regaining his composure. “But dinner’s over."
There's some foreshadowing going on at the end. ;)
And ugh wished I could have done more with Vince's flashbacks, but it was a last min decision to include it. Someone needs to make a ski mask for TS3. -_- Anyway, the first poll for the season will be posted next. Will be something to lighten things up as things are about to get rough.

SH Live Review, 3x11: Lost Souls.
I am not ready for this, but here we go.
I totally forgot Clary was on death row at one point. Damn.
Oh, this recap is hurting my goddamn feelings.
Simon and Jace on the roof ):
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH ALEC IS UP AND RUNNING.
WAIT. PAUSE. TIME OUT. HOLD ON. FLAG ON THE PLAY. How much time has passed? Last time I saw Alec, he had a whole arrow in his chest. I know they didn’t just say “fuck it!” and rip it out. Pressing play.
A decoy? What was that thing?
Why is Jace’s voice so deep?
Why isn’t he picking up his blades?
JACE WHAT THE FUCK
Ohhh. Oh. Oh man.
I missed this theme song! THIS IIIIIIIISSS THE HUUUUUUUUUUNT.
Oh my God, Simon with the flashbacks.
OH MY GOD? He can’t even hurt himself. Fuck, that’s rough.
Magnus? I’m going to CRY. STOP.
Jace, don’t you open that door.
Clary drew him while he was sleeping. Someone get me a drink and some tissues.
Why does this remind me of that part in Breaking Dawn right before Bella woke up as a vampire? Maybe it’s the lighting.
Who the hell is that????
BITCH I FORGOT ABOUT JONATHAN LOL. He’s kinda hot.
He’s offering her breakfast like he wasn’t trying to kill her whole crew a few days ago. The nerve.
Siberia? For what?!
This is so weird. I keep thinking about when he was in Sebastian’s body and he kissed her. Now he wants to be brotherly. Boy bye.
Clary, it’s cold outside ma’am.
SHIT Alec is fine. I missed the neck rune. Fuck. Fuck.
His smile? I’m dead. I am dead.
YASSSS, MAIA IS BACK!
This is so fucked. I get why she left, but the timing was so shitty. It’s not fair for either of them.
Simon ):
I am in awe. My man looks incredible.
Jace literally needs therapy, holy shit. Why is he always by himself?
“What are you doing?” Oh you know, just redecorating.
Pauuuuuse. He went through a whole possession, killed innocent people, killed Imogen, damn near killed Clary like three times, begged for them to kill him, stabbed his parabatai, and he still remembers everything. Somebody get him to a psychiatrist ASAP. Pressing play.
No, Izzy, you really don’t.
Magnus watching them in the doorway is so precious. I love them.
Madzie was like “look at the flick of the wrist” and threw a moon lmaooo. She’s too cute.
Alec doesn’t give one shit about that movie.
Nana? Excuse me?
OH GIRL. GET THE FUCK.
How’d she get in? I thought that hoe was dead? I’m lost.
You mean to tell me Clary can create runes no one has ever seen, but she can’t activate one to stay warm? Okie-dokie.
Ah, I see. No magic = no wards.
WAIT A MINUTE, ARE YOU SEEING WHAT I’M SEEING? ALEC IS ROCKING THE SEASON ONE HAIR. SOUND THE ALARM. THE HAIR/MAKEUP DEPARTMENT HEARD MY CRIES.
This whole scene is very season one to be honest.
Oooh, that was an interesting look.
Alec is such a realist. Jace needs it.
Jace you know damn well Alec couldn’t kill you. Even after he decided he was going to, he physically couldn’t make himself do it. Lower your voice.
Both of them have a bit of a death wish if we’re being honest.
That boss to big brother transition was lovely.
Damn Izzy, rude much? She’s been in your face for two seconds, chill out.
GIRL. That was uncalled for.
Jonathan can’t warm her up either? Well damn.
Can Iris quit popping up? I almost dropped my fucking cheetos.
WHAT THE- *sigh*.
Clary looks mad as hell. I’m hollering.
STOP. PAUSE. “We’re not that different, you and me.” Guys, I hate that line. Let me turn my caps lock on so you can hear me. I FUCKING HATE THAT LINE. I cringe whenever I read or hear it. It’s overused and...ugh. This whole try-to-make-the-villain-relatable trope needs to die. Every time a character says some shit like that, it’s always a situation where they’re the exact opposite of the person they’re trying to relate/compare themselves to. My blood is officially boiling and my skin is definitely crawling. Next.
Having shitty parents doesn’t mean you get a pass to try and kill people, Jonathan.
What is Luke doing in a hotel? I’m lost again.
Who is Ollie? What?
Luke is such a cop. Look at that wall.
Oh my God, this dialogue. They’re going the this-dude-sounds-crazy-but-he’s-absolutely-right route. Yawn.
I want Iris dead.
WELL DAMN.
My head is spinning. When did Rafael get to Detroit?
Why is Heidi still alive? Loose ends, tsk tsk.
Pause. When I hear “oldest vampire in the world”, I think of Klaus Mikaelson. Now I’m crying again.
“ArE tHe LeGeNdS tRuE” WE HEARD TEN DIFFERENT CHARACTERS SAY THEY WERE TRUE, JUST TELL US WHO THE VAMPIRE IS SO WE CAN GO HOME, SHIT.
Magnus got that 264 gigabyte memory.
He knows it’s a trick though, right? Right?
I’m willing to bet money that’s not Madzie.
I KNEW IT. I FUCKING KNEW IT.
I forgot she could throw the whip!
Gia ain’t shit.
Alec and Magnus stay circling each other like cats.
LMAOOO HIS FACE.
Can Simon and Maia kiss and make up already? My chest hurts.
Jonathan was gone all night and came back with a few twigs for firewood? BOY IF YOU DON’T GET YOUR ASS OUT THERE AND GRAB SOME LOGS.
CLARY ARE YOU SERIOUS? DID YOU FORGET ABOUT THE MARK LILITH GAVE YOU? You literally held a knife to your own throat and threatened to kill yourself in order to kill Jonathan. Remember!?
Girl, I guess.
We really hit the ground running huh? I have so many questions.

Moronic Jealousy
(M’Baku x Reader)
Word Count: 4.6k
Warnings: Fluff and Smut,
A/N: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ATHENA!!! 🎉🎉🎂🎂🎁🎈💕💋
I fully intended on posting this on the actual day, had the plot and everything but this week was, whew chile! So after some selfcare, I finally got a story for you @muse-of-mbaku! Happy Birthday and I hope New Orleans treats you well. Continue to be great, break necks, and make moves! This is inspired by a part of A Different World episode between Jaleesa and Walter. Soon as I saw it on Prime Video, I been wanting to use it as fanfic fodder. It’s silly, so I hope you like it!
“So then I was like ‘Put the pussy on the chainwax!’” Michelle cackles out loud as you and Adriene look at each other, telepathically wondering if your friend has gone insane.
“Honey, why would you say that in traffic court? I enjoy the enthusiasm, but it’s misguided.” Adriene states, leaning into her glass of moscato.
“You just don’t get it. (Y/N), you get what I was trying to say, right?” Michelle looks to you.
After several seconds of gulping air to find the words you respond. “To me you just added a charge of animal cruelty on top of not having a working headlight, so I’d put you up for 3 years if it was my word, but Adriene is the jury here.”
Girls night is your favorite night of the week. It’s a tradition that has been hard to keep up with given the busy weekdays you all shared, but in a way that made the final connect all the more sweeter. And what comes with that is your favorite pastime: Drunk Courtroom.
“Man, you ALWAYS take Adri’s side in this.” Michelle pouts, blowing a 3B curl out of her face.
“That’s what the judge does! My jury tells me what to do- I think I need to cut you off of the Barefoot, cuz…” You slide the bottle closer to you on the coffee table.
“No, that ain’t my problem! You really bossy since your engagement to Timbuktu.” Michelle cheeses into her glass.
Your jaw drops, scoffing. “Oh my God, how many times I gotta tell you to stop calling him that! Especially now that he is my future husband, chill with alldat.”
Michelle giggles, pushing you a little. “Can I play a little?? You landed a gold mine, or should I say vibranium mine with him as your catch. See what happens when you put the pussy on the chainwax?”
“Once again. I. Don’t. Understand. That. Phrase.” You clap between each word in frustration. “Besides. He doesn’t work with the vibranium, he handles Jabari wood, which is just as sacred and important.”
“It sure the hell is.” Adriene says out the side of her mouth. “I bet his wood is handled very properly, hence the ring….”
“Stop.”
Michelle chimes in with a seductive tone. “Does he wax his own wood, or do you do it for him?”
“Guys.”
“Is that what he names it? Jabari? ‘Jabari needs some attention…’ or whatever?” Adriene inquires with an M’Baku impression that sounded more like Vincent Price.
“Fuck off y’all, damn!” You get up in embarrassment to get some ice cream from the fridge as Adriene and Michelle balk in laughter. Don’t nobody know how to cut you down from your high horse like your friends.
“Ok, ok. My bad, we just playing with you!” Michelle calls out.
Adriene cosigns. “Can you blame us? Mr. Perfect out here wining and dining you, leading a whole damn tribe and slaps a rock like that on your finger? Don’t pay attention to us.”
Sitting back on the couch you lick your spoon instead of your wounds; the vanilla, brownie, caramel combo soothing you as you hold out your left hand.
Two weeks ago, M’Baku took you on a gondola ride that set the mood for romance just right. You weren’t expecting anything to come from it but some snuggles with your love but when the boat looped back to dock, rose petals covered the path a nearby fountain, fanciful luminarias shaped in a heart on the ground marked the spot where he led you. One of his cousins was there to shoot the moment as M’Baku got down on one knee and spoke his sweet words to you. You couldn’t pay attention to their context because you were sobbing so much but knowing him they were profound and loving. When you said yes he couldn’t stop hooting in the dead of night, hugging you tightly, kisses unabating. He hasn’t stopped holding your hand since because ‘the ring is so heavy.’
“Yeah, well I still can’t stand y’all heffas.” You grumble, rocking into them side to side.
“I wanna play a new game. Adri, pick something, child.” Michelle directs, pouring her glass to the brim again.
“I’m three years older than you, but go off I guess.” Adriene mutters under her breath, pulling her braids back in thought. “How about...Telephone!”
You scoff at her suggestion. “You need at least 10 people for that game to be effective. Pick something else.”
“What’re you talking about? All you need is some phone numbers and gumption to cold call people.” Adriene says with lip smack, pulling out her phone.
Michelle groans. “Girl, you talkin bout crank calling people, not telephone. Telephone is the whisper challenge for people with a lot of friends basically.”
“Ohhh, you right! Ok, so crank calls. Let’s make em!” Adriene picks up a handful of hot cheetos, munching excitedly. “And Michelle should go first since she so smart or whatever!”
Michelle screws her face up. “No! If I apparently lost Courtroom, I’m sitting out first round. (Y/N), start things off.”
“I don’t feel like it.” You whine, not entirely joking. The moscato and late hour of the night made for a deadly combo.
“Pleeeease. One round! Ooh, to make it interesting, how about calling Tim?” Michelle asks sneakily.
“His name is M’Baku!” You exclaim.
“That’s neither here nor there. I wanna see this! Wake his ass up!” Adriene says, bouncing in her seat.
You lay the ice cream down, picking up your phone regretfully. “What do I even say?”
That’s all Michelle had to here. “Ok, so check it. You call him and change your voice a little to make it seem like you’re someone else and just catch his reaction.”
“Pretend he got child support payments due!” Adriene offers.
“You always gotta be extra, Adriene! But he’ll know it’s me. This ain’t the 90s no more and he has my number after all.”
Michelle brushes your doubt away. “Just *67 him! It still works today, trust me…” her voice trails off as she sips from her glass shaking her head in an apparent flashback.
“O....k. I’ll try it, but soon as he knows its me, I’m cutting it. I don’t wanna stress my baby.” You say, lowkey getting excited by the approaching tease. Adriene cuts the music they were playing as you dial in silence.
The phone rings on speaker phones ominously as you wait for M’Baku to pick up, fully expecting him to say your name and catching you instantly.
“Hello?” He says sleepily.
You pause, words leaving your brain as Adriene and Michelle mime things to say.
“Uh, bueno, I’m so sorry for the late call.” You say, lowkey butchering a Spanish accent as you hang your head in shame, certain you are caught already.
You hear rustling on M’Baku’s end as he moves. “Well, may I ask who is this?”
You hated this already but push your way through the conversation. “This is...Daniella? Um, lo siento. Pero, a friend of mine gave me your number to call so I could introduce myself.”
“What friend?” He asks curtly.
You look to your girls for help on this one as they mouth names.
“Uhhh, Terrance? Michelle’s brother.” You say hesitantly. They had only met a couple times at group events, so they were hardly friends but it is the best you have to make a connection.
“Ohhh, Terrance, yes, we are wonderful friends. Known him for years.” M’Baku says perking up. You make a face at the phone as he lies so effortlessly. “So can I help you with something, Ms. Daniella?”
“Well, you may not know me but I have seen you at the gym a few times, y I was muy impressed by su cuerpo y musculos….sorry! I meant your body and muscles, I’m always slipping that way.” You say playfully to keep up your Spanish identity.
“No, it is alright. I speak Spanish fluently so si quieres, podemos hacerlo-”
“No! No, but thank you!” You clutch your chest as your heart pounds nervously. No way in hell your high school Spanish could keep up with his. “But, maybe we could meet in person and study our native tongues together.” You throw that in for good measure. Michelle almost howls out at your brazenness.
M’Baku chortles out loud, and you know you are caught. Shaking your head as he laughs at you, you almost start to reveal the prank and ask him to knock it off.
“I have never been so enchanted by a woman I have yet to meet. You have piqued my interest, Daniella, I cannot lie.”
“Really? Oh, you are making me nervous now. I thought for sure you would have someone already keeping your attention. You are just so handsome.” You waited on edge for his response. This is when you will surprise him that the woman he is about to talk about in his life is the one pranking him.
“Nooo, I try to keep my personal life as stress free as possible. And I am very relaxed right now, so I would love to meet you sometime.”
You can hear the smile in his voice as his baritone shines through, and you are disgusted. That voice that made you quiver is intentionally being used for another woman, imaginary or not. You couldn’t look at your friends for fear of breaking down.
“Wonderful! How about tomorrow night, 8pm? Since you are free…” You try your best to keep up the art of seduction but it is waning fast.
“Perfect. We can meet at this nice restaurant by the Lake Kenoba. It’s beautiful at that time of evening.”
“Perfect! See you then.”
Hanging up the phone, you look to Michelle and Adriene who are staring back at you, mouths agape.
“That didn’t go as planned.” You say, tossing your phone aside on the couch cushions.
“Why the hell did you pretend to be a date for him? I can’t believe he’s playing us...I mean you!!” Adriene exclaims.
Michelle pats your back. “Now now, don’t get so up in arms. I bet you five he is pranking you back. No way in hell he actually fell for that. Your Russian accent was so far left field, I couldn’t-”
“It was Spanish!” You say defensively. Michelle just makes a face, looking to Adriene for help.
“Ok, well, honestly I agree with Michelle on this. He is a smart man, and loves you to death up until now. No way this is a sign of anything else. Right?”
You sit back on the couch looking to the ceiling to search your thoughts for anything that may have lead to a sign of this coming. “Guys, I don’t meant to kick y’all out but I need to be alone.”
They both try to convince you to not think too much into the whole conversation, but that was impossible. Soon as they left, you were pacing the floor, channeling Angela Bassett circa Waiting to Exhale. If the band on your ring wasn’t vibranium, you would burn it with his clothes. Instead, you come to a moment of clarity. Maybe they are right and he isn’t a low down, dirty dick ass cheater. Maybe.
You pick your phone up and text him a ‘Hey babe!’ with a kissy face. His response is quick, giving you an equally affectionate hello text.
You text him asking for some time to see him tomorrow night at 8pm. Same time as Maria, or Lisbeth, or whatever name you gave yourself. You see the bubbles pop up and disappear several times on screen, driving you insane. Now he takes his time to reply?!
He says he cannot make it, meeting with family that day. You offer to come with, but he says it is private. Too private for your future WIFE to be apart of??
You end the conversation, not bothering to respond. Your phone dings again but you don’t bother checking it out. As you make your way to bed, you look up on Amazon for gasoline cans and bleach with one day shipping guarantees.
The next day, you are in a hazy cloud of dread. Your concentration at work is gone, you barely could eat lunch, and Michelle and Adriene keep blowing up your phone asking for updates, which there were none. Your fears had already been confirmed so what more was there to talk about?
That’s when your brain hatches up a plan. You were gonna catch him in the act, no doubt about it. When you got off work, you went to your place to gather an overnight bag and head over to his. He won’t even feel like going out when you were through ‘being his peace’.
Pulling up, you knock on his door at 6:30pm. M’Baku opens the door, shirtless in his joggers.
“(Y/N), what are you-”
“I figured after you are through with your family, we could hang out!” You say hurriedly, walking briskly past him as he stares at you in confusion while you toss your bag aside.
M’Baku walks over to you, arms crossed. His pics substantiated by his stance and bold tattoos across them. “Did you text me before getting here?”
You swiftly turn to him, taking off your jacket and shoes. “No, not at all. Should I have? Am I interrupting something?”
M’Baku furrows his brow looking from your bag to you. “Like I said, I made plans with family at 8, so I am in the process of getting ready.”
You blink a couple times, holding your chest. “Oh, oh! Don’t let me stop you, Timbuktu! You do all you need and keep it moving, I’ll be upstairs chilling.” You pick up your bag and head up.
“Tim- Have you seen Michelle today? Why are you calling me that? And what is in the bag love?” M’Baku calls after you.
You don’t answer as you head to his bedroom and get undressed, grabbing a shirt of his out of the dresser to put on as a night gown.
“You got a lotta questions for me, but I ain’t asked you a damn thing. SO don’t worry about me, just go on your little date...with your family. I’ll do your laundry while you’re gone, how’s that?” You give him a tight smile as you crawl up in bed, turning on the TV on almost full blast.
M’Baku’s belly jiggles as he chuckles to himself with his hands on his hips before going to check your bag.
“Get outta my stuff!” You exclaim, getting up to pull his hand away from inside.
This is an obvious trap as M’Baku swiftly wraps you up in his arms, staring you down with a cold, calculative expression. “Where’s the gas can you ordered? Bleach?”
You shrank in his grasp as you wiggled to make him put you down. Damn that shared Amazon account.
You stand up to him defiantly. “Where’s Daniella, hm? She meeting you at that restaurant, right?”
M’Baku’s expressions cracked into a smirk. You wanted to rip those full lips off of his face. “It’s about time you brought it up.”
You exhale sharply. “Why? Because I should’ve always known? I should’ve suspected it a long time ago that you been two timing me?” You are shrill as you crawl into his bed in the fetal position.
M’Baku groans as he sit on the edge of the bed in front of you. “Come on, my adored one. Is that what you think of me?”
You shake your head, long faced. “Of course not, until she called you.”
“But it was you! You called me!”
“You didn’t know that!”
M’Baku laughs out loud, slapping his knee. You push on his broad back with your feet to try and get him off the bed to no avail. “Aye, you think I believed that wasn’t you but a random woman who attends my gym, that I haven’t even noticed has any female participants at the early hour I go. And is also friends with a sibling of your friend who I have only seen less than a handful of times?”
“Then why did you lie and say you knew him for years?”
“I was trying to break you out of character! But you fell into it, so I kept going along to pull the wool over your eyes instead. Plus, your Japanese accent was borderline offensive.” M’Baku says softly, bringing his hand to your cheek, brushing it with his thumb.
“IT WAS SPANISH! Why would I SPEAK Spanish while sounding Japanese.”
M’Baku’s body shakes a little as his face strains to hold back his childish laughter.
“You are diabolical.” You mutter, attempting to nip at his fingertips.
M’Baku gave you a gap toothed smile big enough to make the earth quake. “Don’t blame me, your friends have gotten you into trouble with me plenty of times before but we make up, always.”
You huff as you turn to the TV to remain bothered. “I’m not ready to make up.”
M’Baku lays his head back on your belly, talking to the ceiling. “What if I told you I made reservations at the aforementioned restaurant and I had planned to come by and pick you up to expose your plan. Hm?”
Your heart falls at this revelation. You would’ve loved to have seen that happen, and that restaurant had bread and butter you would kill to consume right now, and pack extras in your purse. But jumping to conclusions ruined that as it is your Olympic sport, gold medal winner.
“M’Baku, I’ll give it to you that I shouldn’t have thought that you would two time me, especially without talking to you first. But I still don’t like that you tricked me. You drug it out on me too long.”
M’Baku rolls over, his head traveling up your arm to your neck, kissing behind your ear and humming. The vibrations of his voice tickled you along with his breath but you ignore the dopamine flowing through you, lying perfectly still and unphased.
M’Baku picks his head up, tutting at you as he gets off the bed to head for the restroom. Next sound you hear is the shower coming on. You hope he doesn’t think you’re joking about not wanting to go out now because you were firmly in that frame of mind.
His 1000 count sheets caressed your skin nicely as you snuggled under his down comforter. That coupled with the pitter patter of the shower left you fighting your eyelids to watch the TV screen and losing.
You were awakened by the shift of weight on the bed, M’Baku wrapping his arm around your midsection to pull up behind you, breathing in the coconut and shea scent of your hair before resting his hand fully encompassing one of your breasts.
Instinctively, you hold his arm tightly. “I’m still mad at you.”
“Eh, I know.” His lips graze your ear lobe, making you flinch.
“And I don’t wanna go to dinner with you.”
“The reservation time passed. You slept through it.”
“Did you go eat without me?” You ask.
M’Baku’s hand moves to travel up your thigh. “I’m not going anywhere when you’re laying in my bed.”
You start to feel warm all over, a familiar sensation begs you to give in. “Whatever man.”
M’Baku’s groan rumbles through his body as he reaches under your nightgown/his shirt, grazing your fupa, playing in your tuft of hair between your legs. “I don’t want to bed you while you’re angry…”
Your hand clutches his forearm desperately as your legs part slightly involuntarily. “You think I’m that easy?”
M’Baku’s plush lips falls on your neck softly. “No. That’s why you are perfect for me. I never worked so hard in my life to get what I want.”
His wide hand pushes your legs apart farther as they plunge between your thighs, palming your pussy. His fingers finding your wetness with ease.
You gasp, hips bucking for friction against his hand. “I think I need a little more convincing…”
“At your service.” M’Baku crawls under the covers. You giggle as you lie on your back watching his frame under the blanket make mountains to get to your lower portion. Feeling yourself spread underneath the covers without him in sight is exhilarating for you. You feel his breath on you as he exhales with built up lust. When his tongue spreads across your lips your back concaves in aching relief. M’Baku’s tongue goes into a rhythm between your inner labia, flicking your clit every so often. The pulsations of his pace threaten your sanity as you try to sit up, crawling backwards slightly, but M’Baku’s arms wrap around your hips to keep you in place.
He seems to punish you for you resistance, focusing now solely on your clit, sending you into a tizzy. Sounds like a Campbell’s chicken noodle soup commercial under the covers with all the slurping and lip smacking he shamelessly devotes to taste every drop of you. You’re blubbering his name, peppering encouragements with begs for mercy as you feel your orgasm wash over your body. All of the stimulation happening underneath the blanket elevated your pleasure sensors as you couldn’t see the source. You had to see him or you would for sure lose your mind. Pulling the blanket back, you see his cheeks hollowing out, maintaining pressure on your clit, eyes deviously trained on yours as he penetrated you with a couple of his fingers.
This is much worse for you now, but at least you can take it out on him instead of the blanket.
“God, I’m cumming on your face right fucking now, Baku.” You squeal, fingers gripping his hair as your hip flexors strain to hold back from crushing his skull .
He turns you lose of his mouth finally, crawling up to you to tongue your down, tasting yourself along with him.
“It seems our native tongues were pretty well together.” M’Baku growls, pulling you down by your legs and he pulls his joggers off, dick unfurling full and ready. “Have I convinced you yet?”
You claw above your head for something, anything to hold onto. “You’re getting there. It’s just, my gut is telling me something else.”
“I can fix that…” M’Baku licks his lips, reaching to take your shirt off over your head, squeezing you titties like fresh picked fruit. You both groan from the touch, his eyes entranced by your nipples as they draw him in, working his neck to lap his tongue around your areola until its peak is reached.
You lick your lips, biting them as reach down between the two of you for his dick, stroking it slowly. You feel him expand in your hand as his moans concentrate on your nipple as he continues to suck, vibrating against your sensitivity.
He comes off of your breast with a pop, smiling devilishly. “What are you doing? I’m supposed to be pleasing you tonight, my love.”
“This pleases me, Baku. This does.” You whisper as you continue to ready him.
M’Baku smiles into your mouth, kissing you as you wrap your arms around his neck, laying back as you wrap your legs around him, walls contracting excitedly awaiting his entry.
M’Baku maintains eye contact as you feel his tip pressing into you before the sensation of stretching you makes you break; closing your eyes and mouth falling wide as his girth slowly navigates your canal.
M’Baku mirrors you as your tightness affects him as well, wrapping his hand around your neck lightly before tonguing your tonsils out hungrily. His hips activate against yours moving in shallow motions to prepare you before taking his strokes longer and longer until his entire length massages your insides beautifully.
“Fuck, you feel good.” M’Baku groans as he punches the headboard once for good measure, laying his body flush with your, kissing your neck and clavicle as his strokes picked up pace.
You gasp as if you’re drowning, clutching onto his arm, kissing his tattoo band gratefully. “Ohh, my gut is telling me something much different now.”
“What’s it telling you?” M’Baku grunts in your ear.
“It’s telling me to marry the man attached to this dick.” You say before your voice hitches from the wave of pleasure flooding over you, seizing your body up. The sweet cacophony of his skin slapping against yours signals M’Baku’s enjoyment of you in this moment, trapped between your legs as stare into each other’s eyes threateningly. He pulls out of you, rolling you over to give your ass a slap.
“You need to be on your knees then.” M’Baku commands.
You try your best to do as you are told, aftershocks between your legs threaten their stability as you get into position, rubbing yourself lightly as you lie in wait. Your head is against the mattress as you watch him stroke himself as he plants his hand on your lower back, kissing your cheeks audibly, smacking them both after.
“I don’t think I have convinced you properly of my devotion, love.” M’Baku says, rubbing the tip of his dick between your swollen labia.
You inhale sharply. “I’m past that, don’t worry about that baby. Just please-”
“Don’t interrupt me. You talk a lot but not when it counts. I want to hear you when I am inside you.”
You push yourself towards him, trying to geolocate the dick. “Ok, I will, I promise.”
“I’ll hold you to that.” M’Baku says, spreading your knees father apart before sliding back into you, causing you to illicit a guttural moan.
“You fill me up so good, Baku.” You inhale sharply as he works himself inside you roughly. He bounces his hips against your cheeks with slow deliberate strokes. Bam, bam, bam! The force pulls you back on his dick with each thrust, eventually leading you to bounce against him on your own.
“Ah, that’s better. Come to me like you came over here to tell me off.” M’Baku says, rubbing your ass.
Biting your lip, you pick up your bounce, arching. “I don’t play when it comes to this dick, Baku. Don’t make me wreck you.”
M’Baku smacks one cheek enthusiastically, the sting somehow sweetens your pleasure. “Show me.”
You give it your all, smacking your ass against his hips, tightening around him as you wind around his length expertly. Although you had him right where you wanted him, moaning and cursing you, you get high off of your own supply. The pressure building within you begins to release and you lose your form, holding your breath as you came.
M’Baku would not have that. He leans over you, holding your head up by your hair. “I want to hear you…”
He takes over, pounding into you while reaches between you to stimulate your bud. You squeak, gripping the sheets as he commands you to breathe. You swear this is impossible as he won’t stop digging you out and stressing your scalp with his grasp. Then you aren’t sure if this orgasm was really long or another one came quickly but as you opened your throat, you let out an animalistic screech that scared the shit outta you but rocked M’Baku’s world. He practically pounds you through the mattress to the floor as you both collapse, humping you into submission as he gets his last few strokes in you. He warms your belly from inside with his release.
M’Baku gets off of you so you can breathe, kissing down your back and examining the mess you all made inside of you. You jerk feeling him touch you, wiping the remnants down before slowly rolling off to the side of you. He takes your hand kissing your ring again before looking at you lovingly.
You lay there, twitching every few seconds as you come down.
“Are you cold?” M’Baku asks, getting up slowly to grab the previously discard blanket.
“No, of course not. I’m just recuperating.” You say between the natural jerks of your muscles, your heart still pounding between your legs.
“Any chance of Daniella coming back? Her accent wasn’t so bad now that I think about it.” He says, kissing your hand again.
You pick it up, laying it across his face for what was supposed to be a slap. “Shut up, I’m still frickin embarrassed by that. You owe me dinner though.”
M’Baku smiles, rolling on his side towards you. “I do. I shouldn’t be the only one eating tonight. Plus, I can’t risk you incinerating my things.”
You lay there in silence, closing your eyes.
“Were you...really going to do that?”
You start to snore.
“(Y/N), honestly.”

Conageddon: Richard VIP Meeting Recap
EDIT: I meant to say, I originally had a General Admission ticket, but a very kind soul Noémie who unfortunately couldn’t attend the con let me upgrade to her Richard Harmon VIP badge at a major discount and I can never thank her enough for that.
-----------
- First off, someone in the VIP group had made friendship bracelets for everyone including Richard which was sweet. Another person had brought him a pink crop-top (tummy-bearing shirt) that said "Team Murphamy" on it, and when he saw it he IMMEDIATELY pulled his original shirt off and put it on. (Prompting one of the con staff members to walk in, see him topless, and just be like "Seriously, already?" LMAO.) He wore that for the rest of the meet & greet and group photo. *g*
- The VIP group was big (almost 20 people) but Richard made sure everyone had a chance to talk by going around the table and having each person say something, talk about where they’re from, ask him a question, etc. <3 A few people were still shy or couldn't come up with something, but most had something to ask. My first question was what's on his Murphy Playlist right now -- he said 500 songs but his big one for season six was “Villain” by David Ramirez. He also mentioned his favorite song is "Ballad of a Thin Man" by Bob Dylan, which is also on his Murphy list.
- His family teased him about being in Boston on St. Paddys Day, were texting him to come back alive. After the con on Sunday he appropriately had tickets to a Dropkick Murphys concert. (Turns out he wasn't the only one.)
- Favorite scary movie: He likes bad & good horror movies. His favorite is Halloween III: Season of the Witch, a cult movie people hated at the time but is secretly the best movie ever made.
- Also quick note that immediately before taking that photo, Bob gave him the beads because he showed him his nips.
Murphy & The 100 Stuff
- When asked about his favorite dynamic/people to work with on the show he went to Luisa right away, said people don't realize how good she is. He talked about this again on their panel later, but he realized it was funny he felt so close to her and until recently they didn't really know anything about each other's personal lives. In season three he was going through something bad and she probably could tell but they never talked about it, they just set everything aside when they worked together and he needed that.
- He also clarified that when he said in the past that he wanted the Memori breakup to stick, he didn't want that to be taken against her or that he’s not happy about them getting back together -- it's that he wishes she could do more on her own without being shackled to him.
- He also talked about Bob and how they have a competitive energy and push each other, like from the first day they both wanted to prove they were the better actor. Don't remember the exact bit but he was imitating how they were sizing each other up like "he thinks he's the lead but I'm better than him, oh okay he's good." :P
- Some more Memori cuteness -- he went through a long answer about whether various characters would be good at beer pong or not. (Monty: good at beer pong. Octavia: bad at beer pong. Clarke: very bad. Murphy: possibly good but his anger gets in the way. Echo: no, ranged weapons are not the same as beer pong.) And finally settled on Emori being the person he'd partner with on the show just as he did with Luisa IRL -- because she's a thief and has quick fingers, she'd be very good.
- He cited Murphy's scene begging for Emori in "God Complex" as his most challenging scene, along with the beginning of season three. He answered the same question at the meet & greet and later on the panel about what Murphy would've done if she had died - he has no doubt he would have killed Clarke or she’d have to kill him first.
- About the bunker scene in 3x01 - there was a lot of improvisation and him just doing whatever came to him and going crazy. It was his idea to pour the bottle of wine over his head, and that was a MISTAKE because then he was all sticky and they had to fix it in hair and makeup. They called cut and he was immediately like "ohhh I'm so sorry, I got too into it." Some joking about how Murphy just remained sticky for the rest of his time in the bunker.
- Favorite episode he said was 2x11 but meant 2x12 -- Murphy and Jaha in the desert is his favorite storyline. He loved the line "Faith? Nah, I just got nothing better to do."
- He really regrets that Murphy never got to have a moment reacting to Jaha's death. They had such an important relationship where he hated him but also had this weird father/son dynamic, even though he'd killed his father... It wouldn't even need to be a whole scene, just "someone tells me Jaha didn't make it and I could just have a look, let me play that."
- Another regret: in season 3 he wanted the stuff with Ontari to go differently, he liked the idea that she represented a dark side for Murphy, just being the kind of person who takes whatever she wants and doesn't have morals and there's something he actually likes in that, and meanwhile Emori is his light and hope of having another chance. But they didn't really explore that. He often has to remember he's like in the C-storyline and there's other stuff going on with the leads.
- On how Murphy will respond to Monty and Harper's death, he said Murphy doesn't like to feel indebted to people and he'd be upset that Monty had just saved his life and he doesn't think he knew how much Murphy respected and cared about him. [That may or may not actually come into play onscreen or with Jordan, he suggested that Murphy's kind of wary and annoyed by Jordan because he's annoyed by everyone.]
Non-Spoilery S6 Spoilers
- I asked him about Murphy's mental health in season six. He said there will be more of that, not because he's dealing with it but that he's adding *new* problems. O_O
- One of the fans said she sees Murphy as symbolizing the whole of the show because he's all about surviving and it's something the audience relates to also. He said something about how "how far is he willing to go to survive" is a running theme for Murphy specifically and in season six we'll see an answer to that question.
- They're not really gonna show any more of what happened in the six years, they're past that. (lights a candle in mourning for the spacekru flashbacks I never got siiigh.)
- A girl talked about how she loves Clarke and Murphy and always wants them to be friends, and Richard was like LOL ENJOY SEASON SIX implying they will... probably not be that. ;) He did give a legit answer to her question about how they are similar characters, and he thinks part of why they haven't been friends is Murphy just initially didn't like her and associated her with the ruling class on the Ark, where he had been locked up since he was like 10. Anyway he told the Clarke/Murphy Friendship girl that it will be hard but she also might like it, because Clarke and Murphy's relationship and how they feel about each other is central to this season.
- He was *pissed* (his words) about something that got cut from the first episode in season six -- it was just a small thing at the end of a scene, it sounded like it was related to Murphy and Jordan, but he was just really frustrated that it was in there and then cut. He'll say what it was after the episode airs. And then there was something else in season six (!) where he had to film a much longer & difficult scene and they edited it down a lot. He says Jason promised him they would make the full version available somewhere. (Nicole says: I will believe this when I see it, and also I'll know what the hell he's talking about when I see it.)

My First Ritual - Kansas City 10/27/2018
AHHHHHHH. So I’m kind of a no-name blog in the Ghost Tumblr community. I mostly add useless replies to posts, but I had my first ritual last night, and ohhh how I’ve transcended. I understand why the fans call these “rituals” because there are no other words that describe it. Long post ahead, but I’d love for you to read it. I think you’ll enjoy it.
~I went dressed as a generic Sister of Sin and got asked for a few photos, which was flattering. I bought a fast pass to get into the venue early and some very nice people let me squeeze in next to them up against the barricade (to the right) when I said I was there alone. The security guy chatting with us was super cool. He liked that I memorized all their albums for this.
~I recognized one of the pre-show choral pieces from that Vine of the church choir and the one vocalist sucking helium out of a balloon to hit the high note. Then I promptly lost my shit after I realized it.
~Just.... “Ashes” and that curtain going up. My first time seeing the Nameless Ghouls on the stage. I was in awe. Then “Rats” started and I screamed when I realized that my place on the barricade was smack in the center in front of the platform that Dewdrop stands on.
~Lots of intense eye contact and swaying with me and head tilts because of that. I died like four times.
~Copia trying and hilariously failing to direct different sections of the crowd to do the call-and-response bits during “Con Clavi Con Dio.”
~THE TINY ONES ARE SO MUCH TINIER IN PERSON OMG
~THE GHOULETTES AND THEIR ADORABLE LITTLE COORDINATED DANCE ROUTINES! BABES!
~Being able to sing along to EVERYTHING and nearly throwing my neck out from headbanging so hard.
~Cardinal Copia shamelessly flirting with the middle-aged dad next to me throughout the show and his 16-year-old daughter being absolutely mortified while the stepmom cheered.
~The sassy, friendly guitar duel between Dewdrop and Aether before “Cirice,” ending with Aether’s knuckle-cracking and off-key “Smoke on the Water” intro before chucking his pick and giving up.
~Dewdrop extending his hand to me during the lines "I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart" and "Can't you see that you're lost without me," trotting down the steps toward me for the latter.
~Just. MIASMA. MIASMAAAA. PAPA NIHIL. GET ITTT.
~Me taking off my nun’s veil because it kept trying to fly off my head. Dewdrop gave me a good, long stare when he saw it was gone. I should’ve thrown it up on stage at him.
~The white suit of sex and Copia not being able to get anyone to settle down and shut up because of it.
~Copia slipped but didn’t fall while sauntering across the stage during “Pro Memoria” and I doubled over in laughter when I saw him trying to play it cool. He saw me cackling and put a finger to his lips in a “Shhh, don’t tell anyone” motion.
~WITCH. IMAGE. And me crying because of it.
~AND THE MOST MAGICAL MOMENT OF ALL. I don’t know how it happened, but DEWDROP SERENADED ME DURING “LIFE ETERNAL.” WHAT. The crowd cheered so loudly when the song started. I was singing and sobbing and smiling and wiping away tears as I swayed side to side. I looked up to see Dewdrop doing his head tilt at me so I gazed at him and started singing the song to him. He swayed with me and oh so gently played his guitar while looking back; he never looked away. The music flowed and ebbed and swelled and cut out as we got to the end. Instead of standing there still like the other Ghouls, he extended his arm out toward me and silently encouraged me to do the same. I (or maybe we, who knows) sang the final “If you had life eternal” line of the song. THEN ALMOST IN SLOW MOTION, he threw me his guitar pick. AND I CAUGHT IT. Y’ALL! I DIDN'T SCREW IT UP. I couldn’t help but blow him a kiss when the song ended and he blew me several kisses back before walking off stage for intermission. Lots of congratulating on the catch from people around me. I CAN’T EVEN. I ASCENDED.
~Me realizing the Gregorian chant playing before Act II is from the masked orgy scene of the movie Eyes Wide Shut. Cue the war flashbacks.
~Aether and Dewdrop switching sides of the stage so now I’m making intense eye contact with Aether now. And he points at me and does his bend-over-and stare thing at me a lot. Dammit, Ghouls.
~The collective feeling of togetherness and being in sync during “Year Zero.” It was otherworldly. I felt like I finally belonged. We were surely a congregation.
~Copia’s thrusting during “Mummy Dust” is even better in person. I felt them from where I was standing. They nearly knocked me on my ass. I EVEN CAUGHT PAPA DOLLARS, YO.
~Me bawling my eyes out during “If You Have Ghosts” and Copia’s speech about never being alone. I went to the ritual alone but man, did I feel like I was part of a family.
~Going absolutely nuts during “Square Hammer.” My calves cramped up.
~Aether pointing at me and throwing me one of his picks at the “end” of the show. The guy next to me smacked it away. I was torked but I’m lucky to even have the one I do so eh.
~The crowd booing the band when the show “ended” before they came back on for “Monstrance Clock.”
~”TO CELEBRATE THE FEMALE ORGASM. IN THE NAME OF SATAN!”
~A completely flubbed bra toss during the song that ended up smacking me in the back and a very embarrassed woman coming up and asking for it when the show was over. Bless her.
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect first ritual. I ended up in front, the band sounded tight as hell, the crowd was very nice and well-behaved, and I walked away with a few souvenirs. My only regret is not taking more pictures or videos, but I really wanted to experience my first ritual to the fullest. I’ll make up for it at the Omaha show on Nov. 6! I have the M&G for that too!
Until next time!
